<div style="text-align: justify;">
The show is composed of both human and puppet characters on a CGI environment. The show tells the story of Lazytown, together with it citizens that we're kept lazy at all cost by the show's antagonist Robbie Rotten. Upon arrival of Stephanie to the town and the town's lookout hero Sportacus, they'll do everything to change the way of living of Lazytown's citizens. The main message of the show usually revolves on promoting a good and healthy lifestyle for children like doing exercise, and eating a good and balanced diet everyday. Aside from its health-related messages to its audiences, Lazytown also shows episodes that shows basic life lessons for children. The show premiered on August 2004 starting with its debut season, 2006 for the second season, 2013 for the third season, and 2014 for the fourth season. Currently, as of this time, there are no news if there is a latest season on plan.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Every episode usually revolves on anything that is related to healthy lifestyle: doing sports, being physically active, doing exercise, playing outside, eating fruits and vegetables (In the show, these are referred to as SportsCandy). Some episodes also tackles values like honesty, value of friendship, teamwork, and being socially active. To make every episode very pleasing to the young audiences, every episode is usually accompanied with songs and dance to make it very catchy to the audiences.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Over the years since its creation in 2004, Lazytown had been <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0396991/awards" target="_blank">nominated</a> to different awards, winning some of them. Sadly as of this time, Lazytown was last shown here in the Philippines way back 2008 and some new episodes from the Seasons 3 and 4 are all accessible on YouTube.</div>

PLDT Home BRO/Ultera Review

<p>I have been a subscriber of PLDT Home Bro for several months now and thinking to upgrade my plan or change my ISP right after my contract with them end, but before I do that let me have a review for this ISP.<br />
<br />
Home BRO was previously known as Smart Bro, it is a wireless canopy-based broadband by PLDT and Smart. For 990/Month with free installation you can have a 2mbps wireless connection at your home.<br />
<br />
If you will visit PLDT website today, you will notice that once you click the Home bro link it will just redirect you to their new product, the Ultera. It is because <b>PLDT started killing off its Canopy and expanding its new wireless service using LTE</b>, which is currenltly the most advance wireless technology today.<br />
<br />
If you're also a home bro subscribers like me, I guess you too have received some phone calls from their representatives offering you a free upgrade to their Ultera. The first time they call, I said that I will think about it, when I surf the net for reviews about their experience with ultera I haven't read anything positive. Their main complain is the maximum data usage per month, you can have a 30gb per month at their plan 990 and once you reach the maximum usage per day, <b>your speed will drop to 256kbps.</b><br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRYnja91I4bE29movGReTrK45Eh7AqKaETkuAnau4LuKt_lXtvLXj6sNZjl1TFpnq0ntNYhoHReTdhyphenhyphenOKHYsCMccSF7BBFOpl17gMO0UT3qCVRno3jBZ8D5spEovEIdD_uLUULWlYR32o/s1600/ultera.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="233" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRYnja91I4bE29movGReTrK45Eh7AqKaETkuAnau4LuKt_lXtvLXj6sNZjl1TFpnq0ntNYhoHReTdhyphenhyphenOKHYsCMccSF7BBFOpl17gMO0UT3qCVRno3jBZ8D5spEovEIdD_uLUULWlYR32o/s640/ultera.JPG" width="640" /></a></td></tr>

</tbody></table>
<br />
<br />
My cousin is been a subscriber of Ultera for quite some time now. He said that the data usage allowance is not only the problem, but also the speed reliability. Ultera is offering 3 plans. 3mbps for 990, 5mbps for 1599 and 10mbps for 1999. Yes, you cannot expect that you can always have the speed you ask and they offered for, but at least the 50 percent of the speed you paid for? My cousin said that speed he experiencing right now is like he's already reach the maximum usage per day.<br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

</tbody></table>
And what if he reach the maximum usage per day? His facebook loads like forever, He get always disconnected on Clash of clans and in some online game. Youtube automatically set its video quality to 144p. Ouch.<br />
<br />
Base on my research on some reviews, some people also get reliable speed fom their Ultera. For the first 2 months or less and after that the speed drops and some are close or within the LTE coverage in their areas. But I will not risk my 36 months lock-in period because a very few people experience a 'reliable' speed.<br />
<br />
So when they called again, I decline for upgrade and said that I'm planning to upgrade for a DSL broadband.<br />
<br />
My first month as a Home BRO user was just like hell. websites are just keep loading. Images and links are always broken. But when I called their customer service and fix my canopy everything turn fine. <b>I get an average speed of 0.7 mbps to 1.3 mbps for my plan 990</b>. The only thing I notice that every time the month is about to end my speed always drops at 0.22 Mbps, this is when I found out that they also have a maximum data usage per month. I ask them what is their monthly allowance for canopy user but they told me that they don't have the information regarding the maximum data allowance on Home Bro, I read on some website that it's 30gb to 50gb per month.<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Home Bro Speed Test - 2015</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
Another thing that I hate about PLDT is their customer care, I'm also a subscriber of Globe postpaid and Sky Cable but I don't experience any problem with them. Yes they do respond on my Facebook messages but it will took days for them to respond. When I'm calling their customer hotlines, my average waiting time for just to connect me to one of they're agents is 15 minutes. Unlike with Sky Cable, I even have a long conversation with one of their agents in Facebook about my inquiry about their broadband.<br />
<br />
That's it, And my final words are that before you subscribes to any internet plan available in our country research for some reviews first, we cannot trust their advertisements anymore. It is best to ask your neighbor or anyone near your location what is their ISP and their experience with it. Because yes, location matters, even if the Globe is the worst internet provider here in the Philippines, there are still some place experience a reliable speed from them. It's still up to you and your knowledge where you will invest your money.<br />

intense that you can’t even breathe, it will you leaving hanging until you
realized that it’s over. The film mainly concern on a rescue mission lead by
Captain Miller (Tom Hanks) with his men who had almost killed in Omaha, their
mission is to go beyond enemy lines and bring home a soldier whose other
brother is had already been killed in action. As their missions continues, the
movie shows different events in war, but mostly tragic, like in a scene they
see burned warplane with a man wearing a helmet with a star (High Rank), and
not far away is bunch of injured American soldier walking, this show a
graphically realistic depiction of the horror of wars. When some of their
fellow soldiers were being killed in action, some in the group begins to
question the logic of losing more lives to save a single soldier. There is also
a scene that Tom Hanks breaks down and Cry which is really a heartbreaking,
even though the film didn’t show much about the detail of the supporting cast
viewers can feel their and pain in the movie. The film shows that a real
soldier is just following orders. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<p>Most of my friends and relatives would always consider Japan

</span>When I say different, tissues of theirs are more
developed and differentiated from each other. In Japan, tissues in toilets are
to be disposed together with flushing! Tissues in toilets easily break down to
reduce trash and avoid clog. Whenever one would visit gas stations, piles of
soft tissues are given as an act of hospitality too. Tissues are almost free; I
could have a lot of tissues from “promodizers” just walking by the mall or the
subway. <o:p></o:p></div>

Three Eras of British Band Dominance

<p><div style="text-align: justify;">
The music scene is one of the best and iconic scenery in the pop culture and mainstream living of every man. As well as the songs that emerged from nowhere had started to pop up, get known, top the charts, slip through it and exit it. Well, the songs that emerge are all credited to its composers and performers. Music as well can sometimes be considered as a digital war of listening because of the existence of the music charts, especially the one that is ran by the music magazine, Billboard.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In my observations and research regarding the music scene of British performers, it is well obviously seen that there are three British bands from different generations that dominated the world in the music scene and pop culture. Somewhat, their influence had largely changed the music scene ever since they have started emerging and dominating the world music scene. Here are the following British bands we are mentioning from three different generations of time:</div>

One Direction is a London-based boy band composed of Harry Styles, Louis Tomlinson, Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, and Liam Payne. Each member are rejected contestants in the singles audition of the seventh season of X-Factor but however after being grouped up under the ideas of Nicole Scherzinger (who was an X-Factor judge at that time) and Simon Cowell, they managed to enter the Group category and finished third in the X-Factor Season 7. Due to the high demand and the spawning power of social media, One Direction just easily managed to reach fame and get the attention of the international music scene.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
One Direction is well known for their undefeated streak at their nominations at the Teen Choice Awards. They have a stunning record of 14-0 winning streak on all their nominations on the said award event since they got their first nomination at TCA's last 2012. They we're also proclaimed by Billboard as the <i>Top New Artist/s of 2012</i>. They are also the second wealthiest musicians under age of 30. Prior to the release of their third album <i>Midnight Memories</i>, One Direction became the first band in the history of Billboard Top 200 Albums Chart to have the first three albums hit the #1 spot. The said album as well became the biggest selling album in 2013.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As of 2014, the band is currently signed to Simon Cowell's Syco Records and is currently working on their fourth studio album.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The three bands featured however, in my opinion, are really the ones that had caught the attention of the worldwide music scene. The power and influence of these three bands that was shown in their respective generations only show that not only the American musicians can make a difference in dominating the international music scene.</div>

Bag of Beans - Tagaytay City

<p><div style="text-align: justify;">
Coffee had been part of every Filipino dining ever since the Spanish times. We can always see people drink coffee on almost every part of the day: morning, afternoon, or even at nighttime. Somewhat, this Filipino dining tradition that had been part of our everyday lives had sparked an emergence to the existence of coffee shops here in Philippines like Starbucks, Seattle's Best Coffee, and Cafe de Lipa. But in my travelling history, trying such things on a certain area like food is a must for a traveler and in my trip to Tagaytay this past weekend (July 20) I found a coffee shop where their hot beverages, could even compete in the coffee served in Starbucks, named Bag of Beans.</div>

Bag of Beans is already well known in Tagaytay City since 2001 for their fine brewing of "Kapeng Barako" and "Kapeng Alamid" for local and foreign tourists alike. Since then, this coffee shop had been well known by those people who usually went to Tagaytay City for many times already, and these are the reason why this coffee shop could even match the "big name" coffee shops like we usually know:</div>

The Bag of Beans interior is inspired by a semi-garden like setting. Guests who go to this coffee shop, aside from the coffee and the food, also like to feel the essence and ambiance of the coffee shop which shows a good environment setting. There are also gazebos where guests can enjoy their coffee and dining in a more comfortable and pleasing way. The setting of their coffee shop is worth paying together with the coffee and food if you're a tourist in Tagaytay. And another thing, their coffee is a less expensive than Starbucks, but with the same taste. Bag of Beans' coffee is a lot more tastier for me though.</div>

In order to combat them, humans living in the countries near Pacific created the Jaegers, colossal robots capable of fighting them. But as years go by, the Kaiju had adapted to the fighting strategies of the Jaegers which makes them grow stronger as the years go by. The surviving Jaegers were out to be sent to Hong Kong for last stand because the UN itself would stop funding the Jaegers and instead, use it to create the anti-Kaiju wall.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The effects of the movie can be relatively compared to the three Transformers films, in which both movies revolve in robots and mechanized technology. The high accounts of science fiction will also encourage people to watch and its revolution of its storyline to the robots and monsters will surely make the movie action -packed. Also, the movie will also give people idea of what is a Kaiju. For everyone's information, Godzilla itself is not a dinosaur, but a Kaiju as well.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The plot mostly revolves in the year 2020 to 2025 where the Kaijus started to grow stronger in fighting. As movie watchers say in this film, the plot itself lacks some stories and scenarios of how really the Jaegers have started. Its like the movie itself shall be the ending of the story. More people also wants to know the background of the other 3 Jaegers (being <i>Cherno Alpha of Russia, Crimson Typhoon of China, Coyote Tango of Japan, and Striker Eureka of Australia</i>) before the movie. Most of the parts of the movie only revolves to the American jaeger, <i>Gipsy Danger</i>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As an overall verdict, this movie will only receive 4-stars due to some incompleteness in the plot. This movie has great effects, and storyline and a must watch for everyone, but curiosity will always arise on other scenes especially the one that is mentioned in this review.</div>

Why Social Media Hate Nancy Binay

<p>Nancy Binay (Nancy Sombillo Binay Angeles), Daughter of Vice President Jejomar Binay, One of the Senatorial Candidates of the 2013 Senatorial Election and about to proclaim as one of the Senators of the Republic of the Philippines.<br />
<div>
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeV4m8YR6TJilu0smCZgSPqsFeIFt00CUPQl3coj8KRUj6nbEcJeMv70dlq6BmodPJKuBsNIYA4A2nG48PCGTF5XkajJ4d62HASU0Lc5R1_cmamShkaQVeLPtYAm59NrVYXkeh4INg6lx6/s1600/2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeV4m8YR6TJilu0smCZgSPqsFeIFt00CUPQl3coj8KRUj6nbEcJeMv70dlq6BmodPJKuBsNIYA4A2nG48PCGTF5XkajJ4d62HASU0Lc5R1_cmamShkaQVeLPtYAm59NrVYXkeh4INg6lx6/s1600/2.jpg" /></a></div>
<div>
<br />
After receiving lots negative feedback from the Social Media last campaign and election she still manage to win. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
But Why Social Media Hate Nancy?</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
1. <b>Not Participating on Debates</b> - After the netizen heard the 'Fake' news that Nancy had a Temporary Protection Order from the court against any kind of discussion and/or debates, netizens rage calling her Dumb and not fit for a public office. She also receive criticism after she refuse to debate Risa Hontiveros, also a Senatorial Candidate, and chooses to focus on campaigns instead. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Binay said she had no more time for debates because there are still many provinces she need to visit and she needs more grounds to cover because she joined the senatorial race relatively late after one of the candidates of United Nationalist Alliance, Joey De Venecia backed out. Nancy Binay said that the other candidates had already prepared a year ago because they had already an intentions of running for the senate.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
2. <b>No Clear Track Record - </b>Nancy Binay served as a "Personal Assistant" to her parents. She said one of her interviews that her 20-years of OJT under her parents is enough to run for the senate. Between 1998 and 2001 she performed Administrative duties as personal assistant to her mother who was then the Mayor of Makati. From 2010 She has been a personal Assistant to his father who is the current Vice President. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
She is involved in various humanitarian causes. Member of the Board of several foundations like Brighthalls Children's Foundation, Serbisyong Tunay Foundation and the JCB.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The reason why the netizens saying Nancy Binay has no Track Record because they are comparing her with Risa Hontiveros, but some of the senatorial candidates also have no clear records or no any government and legislative experience like Bam Aquino, Eddie Villanueva and Grace Poe.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
3. <b>From a Family of Politicians</b> - His father Jejomar Binay is currently the Vice President of the Philippines, His brother Jun Jun Binay recently re-elected as the Mayor of Makati, her sister, Abigail Binay elected as the representaive of Makati in the Congress and soon to be proclaimed as one of the Senators of the Philippines Nancy Binay. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Political Dynasty is widely spread in the Philippines. One Family running a city or in a different government positions. People nowadays based their votes on names and not anymore on experience and platforms. The recently Senatorial elections shows that some of the new Senatorial candidates have potential to be a good leader, but most of the winners are either re-electionist or from a family of politician.  I still don't get the point why people keep voting on the same names even they don't see any improvements.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Nancy Binay's Memes and edited pictures is scattered all over the internet. The famous so far is the Fake Cover of  the Time Magazine with a caption of "The Most STUPID Country to Elect a 20-year OJT as a Senator". </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Fake articles about Nancy Binay is also all over the social media, because she is famous, some bloggers use this to attract visitors from their blog. One of the fake article that receives many negative comments is the <a href="http://mosquitopress.net/post/48602780731/nancy-binay-reveals-childhood-trauma-papa-forced-me">Mosquito Press</a>. The article is about Nancy reveals childhood trauma. If you want to read click <a href="http://mosquitopress.net/post/48602780731/nancy-binay-reveals-childhood-trauma-papa-forced-me">Here</a>.</div>

</tbody></table>
<div>
There is a limit for everything, I didn't vote for Nancy, But respect her, She is still a woman and a mother. And the fact that there is nothing more that we can do because she is now one of the senator of the Philippines and remember the new Cybercrime law so think before you click. </div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: none; color: #1a1a1a; line-height: 14px; text-align: left;">Awhile ago Me and my friends watched Manila Kingpin. We are very excited not only because we are fan of Pinoy action movies but also this film sweep most of the awards last MMFF 2011 (<a href="http://probypro.blogspot.com/2011/12/manila-kingpin-sweeps-37th-mmff-awards.html">"Manila Kingpin" sweeps 37th MMFF awards</a>"), </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; line-height: 18px; text-align: left;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: left;"><span style="line-height: 18px;">It bagged Best Production Design, Best Editing, Best Sound Recording, Best Original Theme Song, Best Cinematography, Best Screenplay, Gatpuno Villegas Cultural Award, Best Supporting Actor, Best Director and Best Festival Picture.

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<div style="line-height: 14px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;"><em>Manila Kingpin: The Untold Story of Asiong Salonga</em> (aka <em>The Asiong Salonga Story</em>) is the fourth movie to dramatize the life and times of Tondo’s notorious gang leader who ruled from the late 1940s until his untimely death in 1951, at age 27.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;">Just like the first version, which was released in 1961 starring former President Joseph Estrada (the second, with Rudy Fernandez, in 1977 and the third, with George Estregan Jr., in 1990), the current one is filmed in black and white purportedly to capture the look and mood of Asiong’s era.</span></div>

<div style="padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white;">Director Tikoy Aguiluz, screenwriters Roy Iglesias and Rey Ventura, cinematographer Carlo Mendoza and production designer Fritz Silorio, with the cast led by titular star Jeorge Estregan (the other screen name of Laguna Gov. ER Ejercito), succeed for the most part in taking the audience back to that part of Tondo’s past. (Aguiluz has asked for his name to be taken out of the movie’s credits.)</span></div>

<div style="padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white;">But there are also moments and details in certain scenes (such as those shot outdoors where the screen turns green because of the grassy background and inside Asiong’s prison cell where his orange uniform appears like a stain on the screen) that interrupt the nostalgia trip.</span></div>
<div style="padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white;">Thankfully, the movie gives equal importance to timeless family values and the eternal theme crime does not pay.</span></div>
<div style="padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white;">While Asiong’s brother Domeng (played remarkably by Philip Salvador) exercises his sworn duty as a policeman, for instance, he remains responsible for and protective of Asiong.</span></div>
<div style="padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white;">And when Asiong finally meets his bloody end, his assailant also falls victim to brutal violence.</span></div>
<div style="padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white;">Aside from Salvador, other secondary leads like Baron Geisler (as Asiong’s vengeful former henchman Erning), John Regala and Ronnie Lazaro (as two of Asiong’s rival gang lords) also shine in the movie.</span></div>
<div style="padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white;">Ditto for the rest of Asiong’s followers played by Dennis Padilla, Ping Medina, Yul Servo, Ketchup Eusebio and Amay Bisaya who made the most of their extensive screen time but with limited dialogue.</span></div>
<div style="padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">

<div style="padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
