Heat Magazine is a guilty pleasure of mine. It is gloriously gossipy and rather bitchy too, but it is difficult to drag my eyes away from it until I have looked through the whole thing. It has features on various topical glamorous celebrities (Katie Price, Victoria Beckham, …

This is only a quarterly magazine. But, I’m glad it exists all the same. It’s a fun magazine for mid century design enthusiasts like me.
A lot of it seems to be about showing me peoples’ midcentury interiors. I guess the idea is to inspire others to try to …

Key Milwaukee is a monthly visitor guide that is offered free at the Information Desk inside the Grand Avenue Mall. I pick one up every month as it is always filled with great information. The magazine is small, measuring about 5 ½ by 8 ½ inches. On average it …

Nicole Scherzinger is the face on this ad. But I don’t think she’s actually Brazilian. Just because she has long dark hair and a fresh face, she is the new face for this product. The ad itself looks really really cheesy. And the palm …

I have seen the television commercials where the Life Takes Visa slogan is punctuated by all sorts of gregarious activities. It makes people want the freedom that a credit card sometimes feel like it’s providing. In this magazine advertisement, a guitar with five necks and five sets …

I am an avid digital photographer, and I rely on Photoshop to make my pictures better than what I took. I do a lot of internet research on Photoshop, but I suppose I am old-school and rely more on the printed word than the web. I found this rather …

It is very important that we keep ourselves informed. In this world, being informed is a protection and the same time a weapon. It is important that we will watch the news, or listen to radio news broadcasts or read the newspaper.
I can’t read newspapers everyday because I don’t …

Now THIS is something that I was really interested in. I don’t have a child. But I watched the ad for this product and was really amazed. The man who invented this explained that he had a routine for teaching his infant daughter to …

In America, Formula 1 racing isn’t as popular as NASCAR. While there certainly are a number of fans, it’s not enough to warrant a huge international traveling expense for analysts and crew. Thus, Speed-TV’s coverage is hampered dramatically.
For example, Speed-TV uses a camera feed supplied by the …

Time Magazine is a tradition, and that’s pretty much how I look at it. I don’t take any news publication as gospel because in my opinion, just about everything is slanted, one way or another. However, I do like Time Magazine as a leader in information and …

I recently was waiting in line at customer service at a local department store. I had taken my number and took a seat and looked over my shoulder and found a magazine called “Scrapbook etc.” laying on the table. I picked it up to have something to browse through …

Of all the tabloid rags on the shelves in grocery stores, it seems that OK! Magazine is one of the most reputable ones. Stories have broken in OK! Magazine that haven’t even captured speculation from other publications, like Life & Style, and Us magazines. A more …

What in the world is this you ask? I had to read the page (which as NO pictures or photos) to realize that this event which took place on May 8th and 9th was a conference of visionaries in all different fields in the world. The …

Ed Hardy is bad azz. I love the T-shirts, the caps, and all the accoutrement that celebs choose to wear when they are not on the red carpet. The designs are always very “brutal” looking but they have a really couture edge bordering on biker-wear. …

Traveling is one of the best all-time favorite hobby of most people. It is very seldom that you will find a person who wants to be locked up away from the world (except monks, perhaps), and even couch potatoes have been known to watch travel shows. This shows that …

I received two issues of Oprah magazine in the mail. I expected it to be filled with stories and exciting news. It was nothing like I expected. It was filled with advertisements. I bet you if you took out half of the advertisements in the magazine it would be …

Oprah’s success as a talk-show host gave rise to the birth of O The Oprah Magazine. I love this magazine. It is the printed version of the TV talk show which I find so informative. I like that they keep it real here, discussing about real-life issues and using …

The TV Guide Channel began essentially as just a scroll of cable listings. Now it’s a network with original programming. The one theme that is consistent is that TV Guide Channel is all about entertainment and nothing else. You may find paid programming during the wee …

Again, there is a blonde with wonderful luscious hair and a pert little pouty mouth, and blue eyes. I wish that advertisers would get a bit more creative than just sticking a blonde on a magazine page and thinking that the world will buy their products because she’s “beautiful.” …

I have been reading Parenting magazine since I had my first child 6 years ago. I was first introduced to it when I was at the doctors office and was waiting in the lobby and came across it to read. I found it very entertaining and informative. It was …

The Penny Saver has been around for many years now. It’s a way for people to advertise, sometimes for free and sometimes for a small price. It also is a good way for local neighborhood businesses to advertise to a confined area.
The negatives for the Penny Saver …

I don’t know much about tennis. And I sure don’t know much about Maria Sharapova. But I can say one thing about this ad for the Canon Power Shot digital camera: this ad is lame, lame, lame. In it she’s shown taking pictures of …

I have seen a couple of these campaigns and they are always inventive. In this ad the back of a woman’s head is shown. She has a pair of drumsticks tucked in the chignon of her hair. The caption over her head reads: “Some women hit …

I have had my XM Radio since November 2006 and so far I enjoy listening to it. What caught my attention was commercial free music. “The City” channel 67 is a channel that suits my taste. It is an urban channel and the selection is good. There is however …
