Rollback 50 Cents or More in Fare

A huge Jeepney Group in Metro Manila is set to rollback 50 centavos off their fare according to LTFRB. They also will meet with the agency on Monday.

Efren de Luna of the Alliance of Concerned Transport Operators (ACTO) said that they are ready to implement the 50 centavo rollback and their members are also rooting for this too. This is due to the low average of prices on diesel that ranges from 25 to 27 pesos per liter.

De Luna said that they are all for the 'provisional reduction' if Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB) approves this deal.

The group also mentioned that this fare rollback is an early valentines gift for their passengers. Valentines Day is a big day for Filipinos and they celebrate it bigger than the Americans do. Pasang-Masda another local group says that its ready to cut off their rates if the diesel prices average 26 pesos per liter of diesel in all gasoline stations. He added that not all gasoline stations implemented less prices for diesel fuel. LTFRB Chairman Alberto Suansing on the other hand said they will meet with bus and jeepney operators on Monday February 16 if it is possible for them to have the rollback be bigger.

Chris Brown seems Hiding Now

Uyyy...Kala mo hindi nasapak oh... joke!

I mean who wouldn't be after all the allegations and soon to be cases that will be filed against him. He's just an upcoming star that never got it there yet and felt that he was but now that he may have a high chance that he did it then most probably his career will end here. Imagine the stories and the statement Rihanna submitted through police where she was choked until she lost consciousness. Not to mention the guy was supposedly threatening to kill her when that happened. This is just a huge mess he's in and most probably he's not going to do his concerts and commitments anymore. Breaches on contracts and no sponsors would probably spell THE END of his career.

News say that he's probably staying in the Hard Rock Hotel in Vegas. Good hotel name to even have if allegations are true because that would mean the HARD FACED man stayed in HARD ROCK heheh. He was seen leaving an L.A. jail Sunday night after being booked on suspicion of making criminal threats to Rihanna. He had been spotted at a West Hollywood hotel and there was an unconfirmed report according to the article that he had flown to be with his family in Virginia. He's all over the US huh?! Where is he gonna hide next after paying that $50,000 bail?! "Chris is all right. He's a good kid. He feels very bad that something like this happened," the New York Daily News quoted Brown's pal and stylist Michael (Mike B) Barnett as telling People magazine. So does it mean it REALLY DID HAPPEN? hahah... sometimes, fish are caught in their own mouth. Cops are going to interview them again about the incident before formal charges are going to be filed.

The one and only ZENNI Optical just made the headlines again and this time it’s not just an ordinary newspaper or spread sheet. Who among you have seen Zenni Optical in the New York Times?! If you missed that opportunity I’ll tell you again why I’ve been rooting for people to get this product. This is the one that can tear down the competition on the designer prescription eyeglasses. Imagine the difference of 100-300 US dollar spectacles that other optical shops offer and the $8 eyeglasses you get from their store! What a big difference right? No you are not blind because it’s really good Prescription eyeglasses for only $8!

They even have one of the largest collections of frames to choose from.

Don’t be fooled, you know you can outsmart these overpriced shops so get the best thing that your money could buy. That’s what you call Seeing Straight Without Breaking Bank.

LPG Supply Just Got Back to Normal Says DOE

Uyyy SYOTA! joke!

The Department of Energy just release news that liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) just got back to normal levels yesterday. Energy Secretary Angelo Reyes said this to President Arroyo in a cabinet meeting yesterday.

The former defense secretary Reyes said that there is now an existing supply of LPG particularly from Liquigaz which is the largest importer of LPG in the country today.The President earlier has tasked the Department of Energy to work with the Department of Trade and Industry, Interior and Local Government, Philippine National Police and National Bureau of Investigation to catch LPG suppliers that are in connivance on illegal refilling, under refilling, hoarding and those who use dilapidated tanks. The President also had issued directives to file cases against these individuals together with about 100 cases that have been sleeping in the Justice Department. That's what they say but the LPG retailers say otherwise that things are back to normal. This I think is plain damage control because as far as the Mothers in this country are concerned the prices of Cooking gas tanks are still way high and very seldom seen in the stations across Manila and elsewhere in the Philippines.

Spicy New Mexico

I’ve been a fan of the United States historic past and a lot of my relatives are enjoying the life and the ambiance of living there. My race is Hispanic and I owe a lot of it from my ancestors in Valencia, Spain and I could probably blend in better in New Mexico. I heard that place is great.

This state has the largest rate of Hispanic people which comprised 43% of its population most of which had their roots also from Spain. Not to mention that they also have the 3rd highest population of Native Americans. If you check out their culture, no wonder it’s so great to see lots of colors and ethnicity.

Artists from all over the US flock to Sta. Fe which is a popular city in that region. The art galleries are enormously being followed by artists around the world. They probably are also influenced by the food that’s being cooked there. I don’t want to think about it anymore because it’s making me so hungry of that South Western cooking! New Mexico pictures just would not give justice to what they have in store. It is culture, the food, and the arts all in one.

My CABAL Wizard at Level 86

Me and my Mummy! Hahaha!

I want to let you into my private life a little and check out my character in CABAL which is one of the most ingenious online game in the Philippines. I'm currently level 86 but the photo I have here is when I was in Level 85... See the Mummy on the side? That's my pet Mummy... I would not probably name it any other name soon because its expensive to do so and you would need a couple of hundred bucks to do that. I bought the pet a few days ago for just a few hundred bucks and quite happy about it since it gives off what I need most in the game which is MP. That's like magic points of some sort and you need that to cast spells... as you already know because I'm a wizard and I need that to survive heheh.

Aside from that I'm currently in the Mercury Server and only won a war once and lost twice I think. I would recommend you start doing that early on so you would get honor as you grow. You need that in some of your skills you know. You'll get more abilities soon. The orbs I'm using is already Lapis which is pretty advanced for his level but I used a couple of necklaces and bracelets to add up on my stats so I get to wear that early on. The damage has been great and it seems I'm getting the hang of it now. Its a far cry from Vincent's top 10 character in the server but it packs a punch. I wish I could get the other skills soon. I'm not using some of them and been transferring a lot of them to my other skills. I hope sometime soon I'd be just killing people instead of monsters hehe. I'll bring news once I get some pictures of my new armor which is Osmium. That's the most photographed martial suit I guess. I'm in Mercury Server so if you are around just let me know! hehe

Back to Basics: Play Hangman!

I've been so tired these past few days that I literally would like to hang myself and chill for a while. Pressures from both work and at home is getting to me somehow and I need a break. Most probably I need something to stimulate my mind. I think I'd probably go back to the basics and play hangman instead.

I know I played this when I was a kid. In elementary, it was just a pen and paper that I had to have before this great game starts. My classmates would often be the one to get words from a dictionary then have me guess it and probably give me little clues along the way. These days it became a little harder much like Jeopardy answers and old English words most of the time. I know I've been a geek once or twice in a lifetime but this one made me sharper I think when I needed it most.

In college I often join competitions and quiz shows in school that tackle general information. If its about anything under the sun then I should probably know that by heart. The training I got from hangman games made it possible for me to become comfortable in what the contest was asking for. That really gave me the confidence to look at it easily because apparently the guessing part in the hangman game I played before was way harder than the contests I joined in. Pretty soon, I already have championed 3 or 4 of them in a span of 3 years. That's remarkable because I knew the questions by heart and from the vocabulary I was chewing off even when I was a kid. I'm glad I played this game so I highly recommend it to people who would like to have their kids or themselves to be smart and not just intelligent. There's really a big difference that it would make so why not take the hangman advantage. Check out http://playhangmangames.com and play it now!

Stimulus Package May Pass Senate Soon -OBAMA

There will be no stopping on my plans!
Photo by AP

Washington will be spearheading this campaign in the Senate for the planned bailout package. The amount will provide a stimulus in the US economy but the Senate version has revamped and gave the private investors a bigger role than the usual. Aside from that, the US had the 838 Billion Dollar stimulus plan already lined up for Senate approval by Monday next week. Hopefully they will be getting more supporters as they lobby for it there. I wish Obama and his economic team to make sure this will be given the actual effect as they have promised. Pretty soon they will be testing the waters if this is successful or not then have another set of packages re written for a bigger crisis than this so called full blown one.

The US Treasury department on the other hand will be spending the other half of the stimulus package that was done by the past administration of Bush. This was the 700 Billion dollars, so half of that would be 350 right? Where did it actually go? Is that why some of the companies are still staying afloat? Some of them apparently are cutting off 10,000 jobs like in the auto making industry. If something good has been seen with this economic turmoil, its the gas prices which apparently has been at an all time low. Good thing that happened or otherwise if the oil was expensive then it would be doubly hard right?

I just wish something good is going to happen in our country someday soon.
