Kris Aquino’s response to Mocha’s video where two woman kisses Former Senador Benigno “Ninoy” Aquino Jr.

June 5, 2018

The Queen has spoken!

Asec Mocha Uson – marami akong pinalagpas. Binalahura mo na ang buong pagkatao ng pamilya namin… Mapapansin mo si Noy, hindi parte ng video ko dahil BUHAY siya. Kaya niyang depensahan ang sarili niya. Pero nung napanuod ko yung inupload mo para depensahan si presidente Duterte (na ni minsan hindi ko pinakitaan nang hindi maganda) alam mo ba kung ano ang ginawa mo? Sinariwa mo ang sugat sa puso ng isang batang 12 years old nung pinaslang ng walang kalaban laban ang kanyang ama. Umiyak ako nang tuloy tuloy dahil NAINGGIT ako sa 2 babaeng nakahalik sa Dad ko bago siya pinatay. Isang regalong hindi binigay sa nanay ko na walang tigil mo ring binabastos. Nangako akong hindi kita papatulan – but this time you crossed the line. You reminded me of how much I hurt my mom nung buntis ako kay Josh & na-disown ako pero nung 1 month si kuya – naglakas loob akong pumunta sa Times Street & once kinarga niya 'yung apo niya – siya na 'yung pinakanagmahal sa anak kong may autism. Pinaalala mo na nung issue namin ni Joey, nung umamin ako sa STD, niyakap lang ako ng nanay ko. Sa lahat ng naging palpak sa buhay ko – 'yun siguro ang kaibahan namin – WALA KAMING PINAGTAKPAN. Wala kaming ginamit. Inako ko lahat ng mali ko at dahil nga minahal ako ng nanay ko at gusto kong maging mabuting ina – sinisikap kong ayusin ang buhay ko. Kaya ngayon hihiramin ko ang salita niya: TAMA NA. SOBRA NA… Kung may gusto kang punching bag, please ako na lang. Kasi buhay ako, kaya kitang sagutin. At hindi kita uurungan. 💛💛💛👊🏼

Student receives motivational quotes from Jollibee staff

March 27, 2018

Here’s something to put a smile on our face, Grade 11 student Mickey Martinez from University of Asia and the Pacific got more than what she ordered, when she requested for some “motivational quote” to help with her mid-term, which she wrote on the “special request” box, at the bottom of the order form.

She wrote:

Unknown to her the staff of Jollibee Express Delivery banded together and wrote some motivational and even inspiring ones to Mickey Martinez.

A Jollibee Manager even went out of his way to personally give her a “gift” to motivate her further.

Even on online, @Jollibee did not forgot to send her some words of encouragement.

So next time placing an order online, never forget to make that “special request”, who knows, someone reading your order may just go the extra mile to grant it.

Stephen Curry intros Under Armour Curry 5

March 15, 2018

Underarmour;

Inspired by the ancient Pi equation of “squaring the circle,” the UA Curry 5 was designed with one thing in mind—to continue helping Stephen achieve the impossible on court. To celebrate Pi Day and Stephen’s birthday, we’re releasing 314 pairs of the UA Curry 5 “Pi Day” colorway.

  • “Squaring the circle” is a design inspiration that functionally & aesthetically frames the upper of the Curry 5, with a circular construction built through the framing of the 90-degree angle of the foot.
  • Containment areas in the forefoot lateral wall & the heel lock in the foot, enabling Stephen to play his game on his toes.
  • The Pi theme is echoed throughout the shoe design for this specific Black/Metallic Iron colorway. The symbol is featured in the knit of the shoe, 3.14.18 is printed on the lace aglets, numbers of Pi can be found on the sole & the Pi number sequence will be scripted on an exclusively designed shoe box.

UA Curry 5 will have a retail price of $130.

Of all the Curry shoes that UA released, Curry 5 has the best design and will probably the first UA Curry shoes that will put on my sports shopping list. You can visit sc30-v5.com for the shoe’s mini-site.

Trivia: Under Armour Curry 5 debut on Stephen Curry’s 30th Birthday.

Despite the loss, Joel Embiid posted photos of him dunking over Russell Westbrook

January 29, 2018

Despite the 122-112 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder, Sixers Center Joel Embiid posted a photo of him dunking over OKC’s Russell Westbrook. The photos has a caption “Tough loss #TheProcess” and the location indicated as “Crime Scene Investigation”.

If you watched the game or even the highlight reel, you can see Embiid stare down Westbrook while he run down for defense. The photo could add color to the already colorful 2018 NBA All Star this February, where Embiid is with Team Stephen, while Westbrook is with Team Lebron.

Just incase you cannot find that Embiid dunk that sent Westbrook to the graveyard, here’s a 3 min video of every dunk of the game. The Embiid dunk is at the 35 seconds mark.

Lebron James congratulates his younger self for reaching the 30,000 career points milestone

January 25, 2018

Lebron James becomes seventh player in NBA to reach 30,000 career points, however hours before the Cavs – Spurs game, Lebron James congratulates his younger self on Instagram for reaching the milestone.

Wanna be one of the first to Congratulate you on this accomplishment/achievement tonight that you’ll reach! Only a handful has reach/seen it too and while I know it’s never been a goal of yours from the beginning try(please try) to take a moment for yourself on how you’ve done it! The House you’re about to be apart of has only 6 seats in it(as of now) but 1 more will be added and you should be very proud and honored to be invited inside. There’s so many people to thank who has help this even become possible(so thank them all) and when u finally get your moment(alone) to yourself smile, look up to the higher skies and say THANK YOU! So with that said, Congrats again Young King 🤴🏾! 1 Love! #striveforgreatness🚀 #thekidfromakron👑

A post shared by LeBron James (@kingjames) on

In a post game interview, James said that the post was to “psych” himself out. I guess, without the post game interview explanation,its a little weird for someone with Lebron’s status to congratulate himself. 🙂

Lebron James will join Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (38,387 points), Karl Malone (36,928), Kobe Bryant (33,643), Michael Jordan (32,292), Wilt Chamberlain (31,419) and Dirk Nowitzki (30,808). James is the youngest to reach the mark.

Video: PNR Passenger forcefully opens the train door for some fresh air

January 16, 2018

It doesn’t that if you can open it, you should do it. That’s what one of the passenger of Philippine National Railways (PNR) did while riding the train.

From the video (embedded above), a passenger of what appears to be a PNR train intentionally jammed his right arm between the two doors while the train is moving and the door is closing. He then later, with all his might, forcefully opens the door wide enough for a person to literally jump out and, from the vantage point of the person taking the video, see the trees and houses outside the train. Once the doors are open he appears to be enjoying the wind that’s hitting his face.

As always, the video is now viral with more than 12.5k shares, more than 2 million combined views.

Rappler release official statement regarding SEC’s revocation of their license

January 16, 2018

via @rapplerdotcom;

Dear Readers and Viewers,

We thought this day would never come, even as we were warned in the first of week of December last year that the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) would be handing down a ruling against us.

We have acted in good faith and adhered to the best standards in a fast-evolving business environment, we were confident that the country’s key business regulator would put public interest above other interests that were at play in this case.

The SEC’s kill order revoking Rappler’s license to operate is the first of its kind in history – both for the Commission and for Philippine media.

What this means for you, and for us, is that the Commission is ordering us to close shop, to cease telling you stories, to stop speaking truth to power, and to let go of everything that we have built – and created – with you since 2012. All because they focused on one clause in one of our contracts which we submitted to – and was accepted by – the SEC in 2015.

Now the Commission is accusing us of violating the Constitution, a serious charge considering how, as a company imbued with public interest, we have consistently been transparent and above-board in our practices. Every year since we incorporated in 2012, we have dutifully complied with all SEC regulations and submitted all requirements even at the risk of exposing our corporate data to irresponsible hands with an agenda. Transparency, we believe, is the best proof of good faith and good conduct.

All these seem not to matter as far as the SEC is concerned. In a record investigation time of 5 months and after President Duterte himself blasted Rappler in his second SONA in July 2017, the SEC released thisruling against us. This is pure and simple harassment, the seeming coup de grace to the relentless and malicious attacks against us since 2016.

We intend to not only contest this through all legal processes available to us, but also to fight for our freedom to do journalism and for your right to be heard through an independent platform like Rappler.

We’ve been through a lot together, through good and bad – sharing stories, building communities, inspiring hope, uncovering wrongdoing, battling trolls, exposing the fake. We will continue bringing you the news, holding the powerful to account for their actions and decisions, calling attention to government lapses that further disempower the disadvantaged.

We will hold the line.

The support you’ve shown us all this time, and our commitment to tell you stories without fear, give us hope.

You inspire courage.

You have taught us that when you stand and fight for what is right, there is no dead-end, only obstacles that can only make us stronger.

We ask you to stand with us again at this difficult time. #SupportRappler

December 31, 2017

Written in Filipino, Vice President Leni Robredo is as optimistic as ever, specially this coming 2018. Here’s the full text of her message.

Mensahe
Isang manigong bagong taon sa inyong lahat, mula sa aming pamilya at sa Tanggapan nang Pangalawang Pangulo.

Sa ating pagsalubong sa 2018, panalangin natin na patuloy na mamuhay ang liwanag nang pag-ibig at pag-asa sa puso ng bawat isa.

Marami tayong pagsubok na hinaharap at haharapin pa. Nandiyan ang pagkalat nang negatibismo at galit, paglaganap ng kultura ng takot at karahasan sa ating lipunan. Ngunit sa kabila ng mga ito, naging saksi tayo sa katotohanan: na ang bawat Pilipino ay tanglaw sa pag-asa.

Sa bawat kamunidad na ating pinuntahan at sa bawat pamilya na ating nakasalamuha, nakita natin ang kabutihan at habag ng bawat isa para sa ating kapwa.

Kaya’t ngayong 2018m buhay pa rin ang pangarap natin na mabigyan ng mas magandang kinabukasan ang bawat pamilyang Pilipino. Nananatili tayong matatag at determinado sa ating adhikain na iangat ang ating mga kababayan mula sa kahirapan at ipagtanggol ang mga karapatan ang bawat Pilipino.

Muli, isang masaya at masaganang bagong taon sa ating lahat!

It is my hope that we foster solidarity as we move forward in our pursuit of providing a more comfortable and productive life for all.

We are a time when our resolve is being tested by many trials and difficulties. Corruptoin, criminality, illegal drugs and terrorism have impeded our progress in the past year. However, I remain hopeful that our resilience will enable us to overcome and rise above these challenges as one nation.

Let us embrace this coming year’s uncertainty with a glimmer of hope and remain determined in achieving our visio of a better and more prosperous future.

Thoughts on the video of taxi driver who was slapped by a woman motorist

December 19, 2017

Like what they say, ‘cooler heads prevail’, apparently that did not happen with Ms. Cherish Sharmaine Interior, since she is now the subject of another road-rage case. It’s all over my feed on facebook and twitter, which I assume it will be the same for everyone else.

Anyway, just read the story from the links below;

If only Ms. Cherish Sharmaine Interior let the incident slide and accepted Virgilio Doctor, 52, apology we all be talking about a different story and may be a dash cam video of an idiot drive who keeps cutting a female driver.

So if ever you’re driving in Metro Manila or anywhere in the world, just remember these tweets from Senator Francis “Kiko” Pangilinan;

It’ll be interesting how this story ends.
