S210 Crown and facelifted Mark X - EXCLUSIVE ZEUS style

S210 Crown Athlete with EXCLUSIVE ZEUS kit

The latest generation Crown Athlete (S210) may not be much of a looker apart from its ghastly looking grille that is somewhat shaped like...a crown, it seems that the blokes from M'z SPEED do really took care of it courtesy of some extensive body kits fit for a king. Under the brand's PRUSSIAN BLUE sub-brand from M'z SPEED's EXCLUSIVE ZEUS collection, the set (consisting of a front half and rear half spoiler and side spoiler) will cost 204,750 Yen while the exhaust system, courtesy of 5ZIGEN International, made specifically for the hybrid model, costs 144,900 yen and the LED Back Fog Lamp (D) kit costs 47,250 Yen. Couple that with some NITTO INVO tire and some JJ Chromo 20-inch rims and you got yourself a modified Toyota Crown that doesn't look so bad on a cold light of day.

Family Guy bids farewell to Brian

Last night's episode of Family Guy, titled Life of Brian, served as a fond farewell to one of the show's fan favorites...apparently. Yes, this episode made a fond farewell to our favorite family pooch, Brian. Oh and if you haven't watch this, LOOK AWAY, NOW!

In that episode, when Brian and Stewie messed up the history when Native Americans took over the USA, they have to go back to the Native American era and surrendered the advanced weaponry from the Indians. Later on, Stewie destroyed the time machine for the good of it and dispose it to the dump.

When the two playing with the stuff they found in the dump, Stewie gets back inside to get something when suddenly, Brian got ran over by an approaching vehicle. At the veterinary, Brian says his last words before his shocking death that shocked the viewers' minds...theoretically.

“You’ve given me a wonderful life. I love you all.”

So there you go, folks. A fond farewell to our favorite talking pooch. We all gonna miss him, although I'm not particularly sure if that new pooch character named Vinnie , played by Tony Sirico from The Sopranos, is going to be a temporary or a permanent replacement but we'll find out if there's any truth.

F1 2013 Final

F1 2013

The Formula One 2013 season has come to an end and it signals the end of V8-powered F1 cars as next year's season will gone to the downsizing route as all F1 cars will have smaller engines in the form of V6 turbo engines, giving teams some hard time doing some hard work for the 2014 season.

Anyway, on the Formula One 2013 Finale held at Sao Paulo, Brazil, Sebastian Vettel took his ninth consecutive win - and 13th overall in 2013 - at the final race of the season, as Red Bull team mate Mark Webber ended his F1 career with second place. The final championship positions saw Vettel with 397 to Alonso’s 242, Webber’s 199, Hamilton’s 189 and the absent Kimi Raikkonen’s 183, while Red Bull’s final constructors; tally was 596 to Mercedes’ 360, Ferrari’s 354, Lotus’s 315, McLaren’s 122, Force India’s 77 and Sauber’s 57.

So there we are. Another great finish for another year of Formula One and with next year expecting bigger changes, there's going to be more twists and turns when the next chapter unfolds in 2014. It's quite a memorable season though. The end of the 2013 season of Formula One bids farewell for V8-powered F1 cars, which is a bit of a bitter aftertaste though...

Thank You and Good Day!

2) Clarkson and Hammond banned from French roads

With The Perfect Road Trip now on sale on DVD and Blu-Ray, reports told that Top Gear presenters Jeremy Clarkson and Richard Hammond are banned on French roads when these presenters allegedly caught doing over 140 km/h (87 mph) in a 90 km/h (56 mph) area. JC wrote in his segment at The Sun newspaper:

“If you are going to break the speed limit, make sure you are not in France. You would be advised to pay attention to what happened next. Because the on-the-spot fine was everything we had in our wallets. We were left penniless. And they took away our driving licences. No court case. No arguing. Nothing.”

SUPERSTORM YOLANDA: Thief Steals from Volunteers Helping Typhoon Victims

Some concerned netizen post something on the internet about a thief stealing from volunteers helping Superstorm Yolanda/Haiyan victims and unknowingly uploads selfies to the internet. One of his friends posted this warning:

I just want to give a friendly warning to all of you especially who are volunteering now in Villamor Airbase and other relief operations. Some people are just here to really take advantage during times like these. 

As you might know, I lost some valuables last Tuesday, November 19, while doing volunteer work in Villamor Airbase. Before we even started, we noticed this guy in pink shirt lingering around our designated area, but since we thought he is with the other volunteer group with the sole purpose also of helping the Yolanda survivors, we just ignored him and continued packing & distributing relief goods. Little did we know that he was there not to help, but he was there for his own personal gain. 

Thanks to technology, I was able to confirm my suspicions. Two days after the incident, I was able to retrive pictures of him thru my Dropbox app account that is synced to my stolen Samsung S4 phone. YESSS! THE THIEF IS UNKNOWINGLY SENDING ME HIS SELFIE PICS!!! 

The police said this might be a scheme/ modus operandi, so please, to all of you, please be warned. Look at his pictures. Stare at it. (Creepy!!) Be vigilant. Take care of your things and beware of people like him. PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD. Pls help me share.
