Fox NASCAR Pre-Show Hosts
As a fan of NASCAR, for the first half of the racing season, I sit through the pre-race show that Fox does prior every week. The length varies, but it’s usually about an hour, and it’s held together by Chris Berman, along with Jeff Hammond and Darrell Waltrip.

Scientific American Mind Magazine June/July 2007
ZI recently perused a copy of Scientic American Mind in a bookstore, hooked in by the main teaser of when to trust your gut. The smaller teaser promised to reset my body clock if I was sleepless. My gut said buy it, it’ll make you look smart. …
Clinique Skin Tone Corrector (magazine ad)
I would really love to believe that Clinique makes a product that can correct a skin tone. This ad tells the reader to imagine that damage could be erased to create an even skin tone. The words seem lovely, jumping off the page like a giant …
Chadder’s Science Adventure - Day 5 (DVD)
I had volunteered to help teach Vacation Bible School this summer for the first time and signed up for Chadder’s Cinema Science.
In this activity the kids watched a video each day entitled Chadder’s Science Adventure and also did a small experiment to go along with the theme being …
Shepherds Voice Radio Program
I do really appreciate the radio program “Shepherd’s Voice” on DZAS-FEBC. The moderator of the program Brother Jurem Ramos of Soli Deo Gloria Church which is based in Davao City, is an excellent preacher of the great doctrines of the Bible and courageous expositors of false teachings so …
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 …
Writers Digest
I love to write short stories and poetry . I’ve submited some of my work in little contest that I’ve won a little recognition for. But, until “Writer’s Digest” I was sort of dishearted about my little “talent”.
This magazine is wonderful for anyone that is interested in …
WPOC
One of the best country music stations I believe in the country is our own WPOC. This station is involved in our community. They have really good traffic reports in the morning and the afternoon. They keep you informed of what is going on that will effect you …
I.N.C. Clothing (magazine ad)
Macy’s has a new line of clothing called I.N.C. The ad is a bit confusing though, because the name Rianne is used in the advertisement. There are few other words. So at first I thought the clothing line was called Rianne. …
Rush Limbaugh Radio Program
Rush Limbaugh is a conservative radio host. He is certainly the most successful conservative radio host out there. I agree with a lot of his views on certain issues but I believe that he is way to controversial and divisive. He is a conservative but I …
Cover Girl Queen Collection Lipsticks (magazine ad)
There is no better spokeswoman than Queen Latifah—to market the Queen Collection lipsticks. I imagine that this line of cosmetics was renamed specifically with this woman in mind. She is a great spokesmodel because she doesn’t exactly fit the traditional mold of someone who models for …
Maxim Bungalows (magazine ad)
Ahh yes, it was only a matter of time before some kind of irresponsible luxury item made its way on the pages of this Blender magazine. I have heard of the Polaroid beach house, but don’t know much about it except that it’s for the spoiled celebrities …
FOX NEWS
Fox News does dish out news and commentary much like CNN though tears earlier, it was not termed even by members of the media as “mainstream”. And I t still remains NOT mainstream. Yet, Fox News captures the news and cable audience through out the world because it is …
A great magazine for scrapbookers
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 …

Ryan Porter (MSN.com Journalist)
I usually enjoy reading the news that is linked on MSN.com, and mostly find the articles informative, entertaining, interesting and the perfect length to stimulate the mind on those hum-drum days at work. HOWEVER, this particular reporter never ceases to amaze me.
Ryan Porter writes the “dramarama” articles you find …
Digital Scrapbooking Magazine
My collection of photos is a bit large because I am such a doting aunt to my six (6) nephews and nieces. Every time I get a free time (which is not often), I schedule a clean-up of the digital pictures in my laptop. I always dream of making …

NFL Network TV Channel
I have been watching this channel for years and I would certainly recommend it to anyone that’s a fan of the NFL. This channel provides 24/7 news and updates when it comes to the NFL. I love being able to turn to one channel to find all …
US Weekly Magazine
I will admit that I never heard of US Weekly until I won an annual subscription to the magazine when I entered a contest. As someone who indulges in everything fashion and sometimes a little celebrity gossip, I was pleased when I started reading the magazine to see how …
VisitOrlando.com (magazine ad)
If I wanted to advertise a website for Orlando, Florida, I would certainly not do it in this way. I might have some imagery of the golf courses, the swimming pools, or perhaps even Mickey Mouse. But what I wouldn’t do is have a close-up shot of …
Canon Power Shot SD870IS (magazine ad)
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 …
BLENDER magazine
BLENDER magazine is nonstop fun fun fun. I have a lot on my mind and do a lot of heavy intellectual reading — because I like to, frankly — and this magazine is always a great vacation from worry and deep thought. For example, every month they feature …

Geico Insurance (Therapy Ad)
I recently saw this ad on TV and I found it to be pretty amusing, this is the Geico commercial in which there is a caveman on the couch in a therapist office and they are talking about his problems. He makes a comment that all of his problems …
Breast enhancements by Natrelle (magazine ad)
Ok, so you’re supposed to want to get breast implants when you can’t even see the breasts of the model who supposedly has them? I have heard of Natrelle before. But I don’t really know what the difference is between getting implants according to the selection your …
20 Biggest Record Company Screw Ups Of All Time
This was a pretty interesting article. Compiled by a group of authors, this piece marked twenty different major missteps of the recording industry. It’s meant to be a somewhat sarcastic piece of journalism which briefly points out some of the bad decisions that music execs …
Women’s Health Philippines
I admit I am a health junkie. I go to the gym most days of the week and try to eat as healthily as I could. As I am not a doctor, I do a lot of research on the internet about health. I am glad that they came …
Radio Program at DZMM
I woke up this morning at the sound of my mom’s radio playing in the background. There were laughs and discussions that seemed nothing serious. Well I never really liked to listen as to what she is up to with the radio, but today was different because she was …
Diametress by Nexus shampoo (magazine ad)
This is a really nifty ad. If you ever want to convince the public that your shampoo is indeed the best in the land, you should use the kind of imagery that makes people think of curly, lush, clean locks. This model has lush brown hair …
Collagen Elasten by St. Ives body wash (magazine ad)
A woman is seated naked in what looks like a field. She is looking off into the distance with a really satisfied expression on her face. Her skin looks dewy and refreshed. I am also under the impression that she has been freshly showered with …
Martha Stewart Weddings Magazine
This was supposedly the pink issue. Im not a pink girl and honestly buy the time I got through the magazine I thought I’d be a little sick of pink. With pink as a potentially very predictable theme, I thought they’d be more creative. Pink can be very edgy …
Entrepreneur Magazine
For the past year I have subscribed to Entrepreneur Magazine and I have loved it. The articles and topics presented have been very helpful and they are enjoyable to read. I found the whole presentation of the magazine to be very professional and visually pleasing.
I find that …

Zip 103 FM
I think Zip 103 FM is a radio station that many young people in Jamaica listen to. I would have included myself in that statement also, but I can’t because I stopped listening to it about two or three years ago. Nevertheless, I would still recommend it to many …
