Magazine Review

Uganda’s Idi Amin and the Philippine’s Ferdinand Marcos are among the dictators given prominence in world news for one reason or another. Amin because of the award-winning movie on his life and Marcos for the famou People’s Power. However, Maxim Magazine has compiled a list of dictators all over the world who have been overlooked! Here goes.

Maxim Magazine said Aleksandr Lukashenko of Belarus is one overlooked dictator. He is known for rigging the 2006 elections that his opponent only got 6% of the total votes! And when the parliament tried to impeach him he had a very good solution: he created his very own parliament!

And how about Charles Taylor of Liberia? Maxim Magazine reveals how he overthrew his government and tortured the sitting president to death. This despot has been educated in the United States and is famous for gunrunning, diamond smuggling and assisting rebels in Sierra Leone. He is facing 11 counts of war crimes in the International Criminal Court.

Myanmar’s Than Shwe is rarely mentioned in the papers and that’s because he has suppressed free speech in his country. He is known for refusing foreign aid despite a natural disaster that affected his country. Maxim Magazine said this despot has reached the manadatory retirement age over 15 years ago but he is still in power.

Credit Maxim Magazine for coming up not only with the juiciest entertainment news but for practical tips as well.  Thsi time, Maxim Magazine came up with a list of 8 gadgets you should have in case of a disaster and your life is in danger.

The list features diversified items from first aid kits, water purifier to fire makers but the 21st century man would not want to be caught in a disaster without this one—a handy cellphone charger!

A lot of real-life disaster victims could have been saved fast and efficiently if only their cellphones had more juice to call the authorities or the medical people. For only $10 you get the “Energi To Go Instant Cell Phone Charger”. The kit comes with two batteries and one instant cellphone charger which you can easily plug in your handset.

Maxim Magazine is an entertaining magazine that features not only pretty and sexy girls but a lot of other information as well that caters to both sexes.
