    Dr. Oz: Dirty Secrets of the Food Industry (6/18/13)

    Today on The Dr. Oz Show, Dr. Oz tells us that even if the food label says 0 transfat, that we should check the ingredients for hydrogenated oil, which clogs our arteries.

    The Voice culminates its 4th season with a two-day finale, the first of which happens tonight with the top three’s live performances.

    WWE Payback 2013 Predictions

    A pay-per-view event specifically named Payback should, usually, evoke a sense of déjà vu. The word “payback” implies revenge, and the idea of revenge centers around grudges which, by nature, are already there. But don’t get me wrong, though – a lot of the line-up for WWE’s Payback feature storylines carried over from Extreme Rules, but interestingly, the WWE’s managed to make most of what’s continuing this month look fresh. It’s a pleasantly surprising move, even if logic should already dictate that things need to be mixed up – we just didn’t expect things to be mixed up in a…

MasterChef Recap: Kathy Prieto Endures 3 Tests, Loses on 4th by Narrow Margin

Jun 12, 2013

MasterChef resumes with 16 cooks subjected to pressure-filled challenges that include feeding Pasadena’s off-duty firefighters, serving gourmet burgers in Gordon Ramsay’s restaurant in Planet Hollywood Resort and whipping up the most sumptuous butter-poached lobster in Ceasars Palace’s rooftop. In the end, the gutsy Kathy Prieto from Bronx, New York narrowly loses to “Italian Stallion” Luca Manfe. Kathy’s out but her time in the show has proven the judges that all she needs is exposure in the kitchen where she’s bound to succeed. Throughout the first hour, the cooks endure the repercussions of creating 101 steaks for Pasadena’s off-duty firefighters. Two…

It’s All About the Attitude: WWE ’13 Review

Yuke’s and THQ released last week the latest game from the WWE video game franchise, WWE ‘13. After playing with my own copy of the game for a good 12-14 hours, I realized that the one word that can describe the game has got to be attitude. From the WWE’s top villain, WWE Champion CM Punk being on the cover, to “The Baddest Man on the Planet” Mike Tyson being a playable character, to the entire Attitude Era game mode, WWE ‘13 is all about attitude. What’s New The Attitude Era takes the spotlight in this year’s game and takes…

More of Everything: A Resident Evil 6 Review

And I mean more. Capcom’s latest release in the title series promised us old-school zombies and a lot of nostalgic material along with brand new content in the RE storyline in 3 different campaigns (and another one after you finish those). But when you think about that statement, it may seem a lot to put in just one title. That’s exactly how playing through Resident Evil 6 will make you feel. I liken it to a kid given the freedom to put whatever toppings he wants on his flavored yogurt, regardless of whether the combinations taste good or not. But…

WWE 13: The Revolution Is Here

I’m gonna go out on a limb right now and make a sweeping declaration: you have yet to play a WWE game with this much Attitude in your life so far. Well, you could say you’ve played No Mercy or all the other games that actually came out back then in the Attitude Era, but you haven’t seen a game like this before. Why all the Attitude talk, you ask? Because that’s what this year’s wrestling video game offering, WWE ’13, is all about. It’s gonna be all about the Attitude Era, and you get to be smack dab in the middle…
