Mad Jack Cafe at Paradiz Centre Singapore
I have not been to any of the Mad Jack Cafe outlets even though they have been certified as halal. Since I’m a Muslim, this is my utmost priority when I choose a restaurant to dine in.

Prototype game
I thought that, what with all the hype, the awesome trialers and screenshots, that Prototype was going to be the game of the year. But unfortunatly, I was a little bit dissapointed with the game. It’s still a good game, but it wasn’t as good as I anticipated it …

CSI New York Season 4 Episode 8 Buzzkill
Wow, I’ve just watched that episode and I don’t know if it was a really amazing one or a really horrible one. I have only one word to describe it- complicated. I think I’m still dizzy from it. The show has quite a few of the cases where …

Criminal Minds Season 1 Episode 20 Charm and Harm
It is a good episode. It is not the best just because there was not enough drama and tension created. For some reason I couldn’t get myself right inside the story, it all did not feel immediate enough. Instead it felt like watching from the outside at something that …

Bumpits Hair Volumizing Leave-In Inserts

Iranian Nuclear Program
Since recent time a lot of attention has been paid to Iran developing its own nuclear program - beginning from clamorous callings for another crusade against intolerant extremists and finishing praises to Ahmedinajad himself as a savior of all Muslims.
In my opinion, all this mass hysteria against said issue …
Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles - Episode 1.1: Pilot

CSI New York Season 4 Episode 1 Can You Hear Me Now
That is not a bad way to start another season of an amazing show. The writers are throwing us right into the action from the very beginning. The Episode begins with murder not vacation memories. And like a good murder mystery we only find out who the killer was …

My Only U
Another Tagalog or “Filipino” movie we are watching right now is the movie of Star Cinema for their 15th anniversary, the “My Only U”. This movie is starred by Vhong Navarro and Toni Gonzaga. To be honest, the movie is a bit too shallow. It is about two people …

Little Debbie Creme-Filled Strawberry Cupcakes
It is a shame that the Little Debbie Creme-Filled Strawberry Cupcakes are not available year-round because I really do like them quite a lot. The reason I like these strawberry cupcakes quite a lot is because the strawberry flavor is quite flavorful and authentic. The flavoring does not taste …
CSI New York Season 3 Episode 18 Sleight of Hand
This is a fantastic episode anyway you’d want to view it, just because if features Criss Angel aka Mindfreak. Well, actually he did a good job but it was difficult to concentrate since I perceived him more as Criss Angel and not Luke Blade, his character.
In this episode …
Criminal Minds Season 2 Episode 20 Honor Among Thieves
Wow, that was a really great episode. It really took me for a ride and got me totally fooled. Many people did not like it since the team is really useless in the episode. There is no actual behavioural analysis and they are not getting into the mind of …

Vicks works like no other when I have a cold. I remember using this ever since I was a kid. My mom would use this on me and she has been using it ever since she was a kid. I think I would pass this on to my children when …
Trodat Company Rubber Stamp Builder Kit
One of the business essentials that I had to have is a rubber company stamp and shopping around for it proved to be quite a nightmare, simply because of what assemblers charge to have one built.
I happened to find a suitable solution to this particular problem and it came …
RT Berry School of Tae Kwon Do

Anlin Coronado Windows
Living in an older house, our windows were old and inefficient. When we were finally able to get some new modern windows installed, we chose Anlin Coronado Windows. These were all dual pane, Low-E, and with Argon Glass.

J C Penney Home Collection Washcloth
Earlier I did a review for another J C Penney washcloth, one that I’d been disappointed in. Prior to purchasing that product, though, I’d been getting J C Penney Home Collection Washcloths. Pricing is about the same, but there is a difference.
I noticed the other product was …
Criminal Minds Season 1 Episode 16 The Tribe
I love the show in general and all of the episodes are generally fantastic where compared to other shows. But this one I would consider to be quite average when compared to other episodes. I thought it was not completely believable right from the start and the ending really …
CSI New York Season 4 Episode 16 Right Next Door
I didn’t like this episode much. It was very emotional and definitely had a strong message about caring and doing the right thing. At the same time there were many things in there which I felt did not lead anywhere. And since they were dealing with the emotional, the …
