      Bullz-Eye reviews the 2011 Ford Taurus

      November 29, 2010 /

      Taurus review.

      The Ford Taurus is one of the most iconic models of the brand. It had been around for what seemed like forever and yet, despite the car’s success, Ford discontinued the model in 2004. It took a new CEO in the form of Alan Mulally to revitalize the model and bring it back to life. Bullz-Eye had a chance to review the new and improved Taurus this year.

      Here’s what our staff reviewer had to say:

      The interior of the 2011 Taurus Limited has a cockpit style dashboard, making it hard to believe it’s a Taurus at times! Our Taurus had many fitting features, including 10-way power driver and passenger seats with lumbar and driver memory, a leather wrapped steering wheel with wood accents, a tremendous sound system, voice activated SYNC and very classy wood grain throughout. We were also getting spoiled with the heated and cooled leather seats in the front and heated leather seating in the rear, rear window power shade (very cool), and blind spot monitoring system that works like a charm. I have to add again that the 12-speaker Sony sound system totally rocked!

      All of these features, along with the extra large cabin space and design, put the Taurus interior right at the top of the class. You will be asking yourself at times, is this is really a Ford Taurus?

      You’ll be surprised by the other features that will have you asking the same question. Check out the full 2011 Ford Taurus review at Bullz-Eye.com.

      Bullz-Eye reviews L’Oréal Professionnel Homme Mat and Homme Clay

      November 19, 2010 /

      Loreal Homme Clay.As male grooming gets more and more attention, we’ll continue to see great products like the L’Oréal Professionnel Homme collection coming to the forefront. Bullz-Eye recently had a chance to review the L’Oréal Professionnel Homme Clay and Loreal Homme Mat, two hair sculpting products from L’Oréal’s Professionnel Homme collection for men.

      Here’s what Bullz-Eye had to say:
      Bullz-Eye.com tested L’Oréal Professionnel Homme Mat which is a sculpting pomade (a fancy word for a greasy or waxy substance) and L’Oréal Professionnel Homme Clay which is a really strong hold clay! Keep in mind that our goal was to get an effortlessly cool look with lasting results. We tried Mat on wet and dry hair and all it took was rubbing a small amount bewteen your hands then working it through your hair for the desired look you want to obtain. I went with a more groomed look and I must say mat kept my hair in check and lasted all day and evening long. I changed things up with Clay and went for a messy look working it into dry hair. I ended up with a very strong hold and an intense matte finish and the look I was aiming for.

      Scarlett Johansson named GQ’s 2010 Babe of the Year

      November 16, 2010 /

      GQ has named this year’s Babe of the Year and you’d be crazy not to agree: Scarlett Johansson. Though the issue won’t hit stands for another week, you can enjoy a quick gallery over at the GQ website.

      The promo for the piece is simple enough:

      “At 26, she remains fresh-faced, curious, trying on new moods and outlets of expression as easily as she changes her hair color. This is what we love about Scarlett: that she’s game, that she’s good, that she can try on all these guises without seeming to try too hard. And all the while still seem genuinely like the observant, inquisitive (and very cute) girl in transition we fell for in Lost in Translation.”

      Damn straight, fellas. Again, the December issue of GQ is out November 23rd.

      Ektio could change basketball forever

      November 15, 2010 /

      Ektio Post Up.

      If you’ve ever had ankle trouble on the court, you’ve probably spent hours researching the best shoes for support. You may not have found Ektio, though, as the company is fairly new.

      Ektio was founded by Dr. Barry Kratz, the father of a collegiate basketball player. Kratz was worried about his son’s ankles and so set about making a shoe unlike any other. That’s how Ektio was born, shoes designed to defend and protect against one of the most crippling injuries a basketball player can endure. Bullz-Eye had a chance to review the Ektio line of shoes and came away highly impressed.

      Here’s what they had to say:

      When your feet enter the Ektio Post Up you immediately feel the built in ankle support and get the feeling that your ankle is secure, like when you slip into a ski boot. When you strap the Ektio up you know this is something special, and the strong support and the “anti rollover bumpers” work like a charm. Ektio makes it near impossible to roll your ankles! The Ektio is lightweight, stylish and offers the safety that basketball players could only dream about before their arrival. On the court hooping it up, the Ektio Post Up was light weight and an overall superb baskbetball shoe. You really gain more confidence in your game and are willing to go the extra mile knowing you have a solid base to protect you from a simple ankle rollover that could keep you off the court for months.

      For the full review, head over to Bullz-Eye.com, and start protecting your ankles!

      A-B InBev release iLoveBeer iPhone app for free

      November 11, 2010 /

      A-B InBev is known the world over for high profile brands like Budweiser and Stella Artois, but a lot of people don’t realize the true breadth of the brand. The company hopes to change that with the introduction of the iLoveBeer app, a free iPhone app aimed at educating consumers about the A-B InBev family of beers.

      We gave the app full coverage over on the Bullz-Eye Blog. Here’s a quick excerpt:

      In order to help its customers branch out a bit, A-B InBev put together a free iPhone app called iLoveBeer (iTunes Link). The app is supposed to promote zythology, the study and appreciation of beer, by helping consumers find new beers to try, offering meal pairings, and providing detailed descriptions of proper pouring procedure for several of the brands. While none of these features – with the exception of the pouring instructions – are particularly detailed, I think getting these ideas into the hands of American consumers can only help improve the national beer experience. Most beer drinkers still think their decision is simply between Bud or Bud Light and MGD or Miller Lite. iLoveBeer aims to put more options in front of the consumer and to remind people that beer can provide a sophisticated dining experience that would turn up the noses of the wine snobs in our lives. Also, who’s to say that the guy who tries a Michelob Porter won’t love the style and start to branch out and try a Fuller’s London Porter or a Bell’s Expedition Stout.
