DreamWorks Pictures' Need For Speed Movie #NFSMovie


Framed for a crime he didn't commit, muscle car mechanic and street racer Tobey (Aaron Paul) gets out of prison determined to settle the score with the man responsible for his false conviction.


DreamWorks Pictures’ “Need for Speed” marks an exciting return to the great car culture films of the 1960s and ’70s, when the authenticity of the world brought a new level of intensity to the action on-screen. Tapping into what makes the American myth of the open road so appealing, the story chronicles a near-impossible cross-country journey for our heroes — one that begins as a mission for revenge, but proves to be one of redemption. Based on the most successful racing video game franchise ever with over 140 million copies sold, “Need for Speed” captures the freedom and excitement of the game in a real-world setting, while bringing to life the passion for the road that has made our love of cars so timeless.

The film centers around Tobey Marshall (Aaron Paul), a blue-collar mechanic who races muscle cars on the side in an unsanctioned street-racing circuit. Struggling to keep his family-owned garage afloat, he reluctantly partners with the wealthy and arrogant ex-NASCAR driver Dino Brewster (Dominic Cooper). But just as a major sale to car broker Julia Maddon (Imogen Poots) looks like it will save Tobey’s shop, a disastrous race allows Dino to frame Tobey for a crime he didn’t commit, and sending Tobey to prison while Dino expands his business out West.

Two years later, Tobey is released and set on revenge — but he knows his only chance to take down his rival Dino is to defeat him in the high-stakes race known as De Leon — the Super Bowl of underground racing. However to get there in time, Tobey will have to run a high-octane, action-packed gauntlet that includes dodging pursuing cops coast-to-coast as well as contending with a dangerous bounty Dino has put out on his car. With the help of his loyal crew and the surprisingly resourceful Julia, Tobey defies odds at every turn and proves that even in the flashy world of exotic supercars, the underdog can still finish first.

“Need for Speed” is presented by DreamWorks Pictures, produced by Patrick O’Brien, John Gatins and Mark Sourian, and directed by Scott Waugh. The screenplay is by George Gatins. The story is by George Gatins & John Gatins, and, based on the video game series created by Electronic Arts. The film releases in U.S. theaters on March 14, 2014.

Personalized Bank Checks


I was recently introduced to Checks SuperStore. You can order custom photo checks and personalize them to make them unique. Unfortunately, they don't ship or service to Canadians (only within the US). I really love their selection of designs. With personal checks, they have thousands of designs from which to choose, including sports, flowers, stripes, solids, animals, cartoons and more.

My favorites are the Classic Mickey Checks (very cute)!

SammyDress Fashion Apparel for Less


I'm very excited to be working with SammyDress.com. They have an amazing selection of fashionable apparel from dresses, blouses, outerwear, pants, shoes, to accessories and more. I was given the opportunity to select a clothing of my choice. I was able to choose 2 dresses because of the great prices.

ABOUT THE COMPANY

SammyDress.com is a global online fashion retail that provides the latest fashion and clothing at the lowest prices. They are also a leading global online wholesale supplier of wedding dresses and wedding accessories as well as many fashion clothing and accessories. SammyDress offer more than 200,000 designer style clothes at 70-90% below retail store prices. Their dedicated customer service is available for help 24 hours via live chat if you have any questions or concerns.

MY THOUGHTS

I love stylish dresses and I was so excited when I received them. I am amazed with the quality for quite a cheap price. My most favorite is the black rhinestone embellished dress. It looks great when I tried it on.

For the shipping, it takes about 7-14 business days from China to Canada & US. I received my order within a couple weeks. SammyDress ships directly from the factory, which is located in Shenzhen, South East China (close to Hong Kong). Each item came in a clear sealed plastic bag to keep dust away and to protect it from getting damaged during handling.




Love this outfit a lot! I think it has a nice, cute design and it's quite a comfortable dress. This style comes in white or black. I was expecting the rhinestones would wrap around, but it is only the front part, which is ok. Quality of the fabric is great (not like the cheap, thin materials) and it's perfect for going out. You can wear it over your leggings, jeans/pants, or just like a dress.




This is the other outfit I've picked. It's a nice color to add to my wardrobe as I don't have a lot of grays. It's long sleeve and it's a great look for the fall/winter fashion. What I would alter is the shoulder and waistline a bit smaller to fit me better as I am small. It is only one size as stated on the product page. The material is stretchy so it's comfortable to fit even for a medium or larger size women. Measurements are noted on the product page which is very useful.


I'd admit I did have a little fun browsing and shopping through the online store at SammyDress.com. There's so many different styles and it's hard to pick just one that I like.



Disclosure: I received samples of the above product(s) for my review in this post. My opinions are my own and may differ from those of other consumers. No other compensation was given.

Glysonna Sleepceutical All-Natural Sleep Aid {Review & Giveaway}


You’ve stopped drinking caffeine; You exercise; You cut off all electronics by 9pmand play soft, soothing music in your bedroom to try and lull yourself to sleep. But, still, you’re awake night after night, staring at the ceiling wondering why on earth you can’t get to sleep. I'm sure many of you have been through this. This happens to me a lot.

Relying on over-the-counter or prescription sleep aids might make the problem worse. Many of these products simply knock you out and prevent you from reaching a deep sleep and REM sleep. You wake up feeling groggy, cranky and exhausted.

And if you have sleep apnea, the last thing you want to do is take a medication that knocks you out! The gasping and choking that sleep apnea causes is your body’s survival mechanism kicking in. Your body is waking you up to tell you that you need to breathe! This natural survival mechanism can be repressed when taking a prescription drug.

Introducing Glysonna Sleepceutical, the all-natural sleep aid that is good for sleep and good for you. Glysonna is a drug-free sleep aid, glycine fortified with added wellness nutrients which helps you to reach restorative sleep by:

a) Triggering relaxation.
b) Sustaining sleep
c) Initiating the natural sleep process

Glysonna has successfully granted a good night’s rest to patients of long-term disorders such as sleep apnea, insomnia and PTSD in addition to individuals who just occasionally have a rough time initiating and sustaining sleep.

MY THOUGHTS:
I was recently introduced to Glysonna and I was willing to try it out, and since it claims to be an all-natural product. I don't take sleeping pills as I'm concerned about the side effects. Glysonna's innovative formula is all-natural, providing guilt-free sleep without the dangerous side-effects of prescribed and OTC sleep drugs. Just a note that this product is not recommended if you are pregnant or lactating.

I was skeptical at first, but it took a couple nights before I actually started to feel I had a good sleep. The taste is kind of bittersweet that's not too bad. When I need, I take Glysonna 1 ounce (2 tablespoons) before bedtime. And because it comes in liquid-form, it absorbs quicker into the body.

It contains no sugars, no gluten, no artificial flavors or colors, zero carbohydrates, and is only give calories!

WHERE TO BUY: Glysonna Sleepceutical is available for purchase at BuyGlysonna.com



{GIVEAWAY}

ONE (1) lucky winner will receive a bottle of Glysonna Sleepceutical to try. Chosen winner will be selected via random.org through Rafflecopter and is open to US and Canada, 18+ (ends February 26th, 2014 at 11:59pm EST). Winner will have 48 hours to respond to claim their prize. Good luck!
