Prayer For Baby Obama (YouTube video)
You know, I didn’t really know what to make of this particular parody on YouTube. So many people have submitted some really great YouTube spoofs. And while this one was funny, it was a bit difficult to understand at first. Perhaps the sound quality is …
SunStar Sunday Newspaper
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.

Article: “Put A Little Science In Your Life” by Brian Greene
“Put A Little Science In Your Life” by Brian Greene is an op-ed piece about how important science is, yet, no one really understands it or uses it in their lives.

This magazine is one of the best pop culture references to date. I am really amazed that I have found such an interest in a magazine that offers so much information about musical groups that I’m not really fond of. In addition to the really interesting …

Real Simple Magazine
I usually don’t like lifestyle magazines because they’re all over the place. Real Simple has all the same information as those other magazines, and yet it’s very different.
I think it’s because all the information in this magazine is put together in such a simple, paired down to its essentials …

Bon Ton fragrance by Ed Hardy (magazine ad)
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. …

This is a good magazine if you really want to read some celebrity “junk”.

Canada’s Soho Business Magazine

This 64-page glossy magazine is rich in content, and …
Kenneth Cole Reaction Cologne (magazine ad)
This magazine advertisement for Kenneth Cole Reaction cologne really really reminds me of a Calvin Klein ad. There is shown, a close-up of a man and woman who’se faces are almost touching. From the way they are photographed, and from the background, I would imagine that they …

I truly love magazines, and especially Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine. It only costs about $15.00, and you could get it at a store near you.

I am someone who enjoys a good read. I like literature too, ranging from translations of the classics of both Ancient Greek and Roman writers from Xenophon to Procopius and, in later writings, from Alfred the Great’s translations to the Brontes and all points in between.
What I am driving …
