Simota Air Intake Review

Thursday 9 November 2006 @ 9:58 am

Simota Air Intake

I drive a naturally aspirated Type R, EK Chassis. Despite being a 99 model, it still looks good and leaves the pedestrian Fords choking on my dust.

My friends- the racing types - have been bugging me for years to upgrade my trusty TypeR, at least with a Simota Air Filter. They know I’m loathe to tamper my engine and stuff (hey, won’t that be a slap to Honda Engineers), but they promise me instant seat of the pants gratification. A simota supposedly de-restricts airflow and improves HP and engine efficiency.

Bottomline is, I get to leave more guys choking on my fumes. Continue Reading »

Philips DVP5960/37 DVD Player Review

Monday 6 November 2006 @ 9:06 pm

Philips DVP5960/37
I obtained this unit 5 months ago… and suddently, the remote failed.Customer support replied was that there is no solution as it’s solid state technology. Now they suggested to call them back in a few months to request an available remote. How’s that for utterly poor service

Additional concerns: the unit’s front panel is sparsely populated. Barely any controls to run the DVDs! Imagine, what DVD does not have a forward and reverse control? Without the remote, you can’t watch a thing on this DVD!

JUNK

Philips DVD is dung




Palmolive Pantene etc Review

Sunday 5 November 2006 @ 9:20 am

I positively drooled when Pantene models sashay on screen with those flowing glossy locks. So soft… so fragrant….so radiant!

Imagine what that could do for me and my girl! We’d stroll the mall with shiny manes. Picturing the envious stares of the frizzy haired would be such a pleasure.


Here’s Elain Heng- Pantene Image Model. Think that’s real hair???

Alas.. it remains a dream. The shampoo companies stabbed at my credit card for all its got in exchange for bottled crap of all shapes and sizes (and prices). Dry formula, damage formula, gleam formula, even dandruff-and-flea formula… I’ve tried them all. So has my girl. Nothing works. No magic. We never resemble the godesses of Mt. Pantene. Till today I wear a fuzzball mop on my head.

$5,000 poorer and years after my first bottle of Pantene, Palmolive, et al, I came to a conclusion: The shampoo industry sells sweet promises to the vain. But I feel no one will ever look like those models, even if one swims in a vat of Pantene ProV all day.

Want great hair? Ditch Pantene and fire up the blow drier.

Dung, Scam, Crap




Water Vitalizer Review

Water Vitalizer
Ewater Water Vitalizer
Here’s something a cousin purchased, measured and found wanting.

Sold for $400+, it’s a glorified blender that proferred zero tangible results to my poor kinsman.

They claim a lot for your $400:

FlexoElectric eMug Review

FlexoElectric Energy Mug Review
eMug website

Fresh from the giddy experiences with the Fridge Energizer and JU99, I knew I just had to buy this little goodie from ewater.com. It would be great to drink energized cola right throughout Saturday Night Live.

Here’s what the site trumpted:

Great for keeping track of fluid intake each day. TBM (Total Body Modification) doctors themselves asked us to make this available, so we did it. I PERSONALLY LOVE THIS MUG!

POWERFUL! Fifteen foot field of protection in all directions from computers and all environmental chaos. Great for energizing bags of foods!

Anything placed inside is energized and turned in thirty seconds!!! Longer times produce even higher energies. Foods can be placed near it and will be energized as well.

This will become your favorite and will never leave your side. All the advantages of E Technology, plus SIZE!

It’s another energy product, this time some quantum soup of flexoelectric polymers that’s pretending to be a high-priced mug. Reminds me very much like the composites offered in the Fridge product. Continue Reading »

Tesla Purple Plate Review

Tesla Purple Plate Review

Here’s one of the internet’s ancient relics. A product sold since the 90s and it toots a huge horn.

The Purple Tesla Plate is:

The atoms and electrons of the aluminum have been altered so that the plates are in resonance, or in tune, with the basic energy of the Universe. They function as transceivers of the Earth’s paramagnetic force…creating a field of energy around themselves that will penetrate any material substance by osmosis.

Dr. J. La Tourrette - Crud of The Month- October 2006

Sunday 1 October 2006 @ 7:56 am

“Dr.” John M. LaTourrette, “Ph.D” and his sites www.mentaltrainingsecrets.com, www.realspeedhitting.com wins

Dung, Scam, Crap

Here’s a verbatim quote from the scam.com site dissecting Mr. Tourrette:

(taken from http://scam.com/showthread.php?t=17885)

(Partial thread from http://www.scamfraudalert.com/showthread.php?t=2548 Scamfraudalert.com published below)

Flim Flam Man “Dr.” John M. LaTourrette, “Ph.D”

——————————————————————————–

LaTourrette is a slippery fellow currently selling a number of trainings and DVD type courses such as “Silva Ultramind’s Remote Viewing and Remote Influencing The Next Evolution in Mind Power by Dennis Higgins and John La Tourrette, Ph.D.”, which contains a fraudulent claim regarding the author John M. LaTourrette. LaTourrette is most certainly NOT a Ph.D, and in fact purchased his Ph.D from a non-accredited corresponce degree mill called Columbia Pacific University. This phony degree mill was found to be illegally operating in the state of California and shut down. A simple Google search under the Columbia Pacific University will provide you with ample proof of findings of fraud and the closure of the phony degree mill.

I consider degree fraud in the marketing of online courses on a web site to be a very serious matter,.

Check out this Dr. Quack, with a fake Ph.D from Columbia Pacific University.

http://www.mentaltrainingsecrets.com has now been shut down by his internet service provider for fraud.

Snake oil saleman LaTourrette is now operating under 2 new web sites which he obtained fraudulently by using the well known phishing and internet scam service provider www.myprivateregistration.com and contact@myprivateregistration.com to illegally obtain new URL’s. The new web sites he is selling his phony courses on are www.realmindcontrolsecrets.com, and www.realspeedhitting.com.

Here is a link on Columbia Pacific University, an illegal degree mill which was shut down.

http://www.quackwatch.org/04Consumer…/News/cpu.html

LaTourrette claims to know the secrets of ancient Kahuna magic, which can do everything from making you rich to healing you of all illnesses. Just for a start, of course! And John M. LaTourrette has scammed millions of dollars from suckers for this nonsense. A recent advertisment he sent out was called “The Secret Kahuna ‘Master-Keys’ On How-To-Manifest Your Own Destiny!”

Re: Flim Flam Man “Dr.” John M. LaTourrette, “Ph.D”

——————————————————————————–

Apparently now LaTourrette’s latest 2 web sites have also been shut down by his ISP.

For more information and debate refer back to full original thread http://www.scamfraudalert.com/showthread.php?t=2548.

Disappointing isn’t it?
