Are you ready for the 2nd Blogger Fiesta Manila this Aug 20 ?

Are you ready for the 2nd Blogger Fiesta Manila this Aug 20?

This is not the part 2 of the Bloggers Fest that was held in Thunderbird Resorts Rizal last April 2011, but its the 2nd year of the global event celebration for Blogger.com 's birthday every end of August and that event was titled "Bloggers Fiesta".

We have organized one event for Manila, Philippine last year and it was also celebrated by our fellow blogger groups in Cebu and Davao, all events happened at the same time and day, but in different venues. I got a confirmation from my contact in Google that there will be no global celebration for this year but there will be something big coming for Blogger.com birthday, so let us watch that out.

Because of that many are waiting for this event, I decided to continue and organize another Blogger Fiesta Manila and it will be held in a bigger venue and I think can accommodate at around 500 bloggers.

Are you ready?
Are you game ?

let us spread the word!

Henry Cavill in Superman costume for Man of Steel movie

Its a long journey and a long wait for July 14, 2013 and I don't even know where will I be on that year, it will be 2 years of fan speculation and wishes for the upcoming reboot movie of Superman. Are we that ready to accept that the Superman Returns movie sucks and no more Brandon Routh in Supes costume? Now we have here is the 1st ever promo photo of the movie and we see Henry Cavill wearing the iconic Superman costume, many people are complaining already about the costume's texture and Superman's hair, When I saw this photo I got my geekgasm and then wondered that it looks like a Superman version art by Ed McGuiness.

I think this is test movie again if fans will accept the costume design and look for the new Superman, remember what happened to that Wonder Woman tv series and debate about her new costume, I hope that will never happen to this movie, I hope Superman still wear his underwear under that belt.

hmmm. anyway, check out the PR info below about the movie

wearing a wrist splint

It is not an actual splint but its a wrist guard that I use for inline skating, we're using this to relax our wrist and hand whenever we feel a pain sting, they say that it is one of the symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome, my mom told me to wear one just to prevent having a bad case of carpal tunnel, she got that already and her wrist and palm was operated to loosen up those clogged veins, that's a real pain because it will take years to recover after operation and I dont want to experience that and I'm going to listen to my mother.hehhehehe .

I'm going to wear this over night and while I'm sleeping, it feels great when I wear this.

Shopping for a new optical mouse @ Mutiply.com Marketplace #shopatmultiply @shopatmultiply

I'm some problems at home because we're running out of a good running and working optical mouse, we only have this Fujitsu optical mouse and it is the only perfect optical mouse that I use for my online work. But then my wife's optical mouse broke down and same goes to the other extra optical mouse, she now uses my Fujitsu optical mouse and now I'm having problems using this laptop's mouse trackpad because it is not good to use it for blogging, editing photos and lay outing an advertorial page for a local magazine. My deadlines are coming and things to publish online are starting to grow, I'm not very comfortable using a laptop's mouse trackpad and it hurts my wrist and my finger tips. So here I am logging in to my Multiply.com account and search for the best optical mouse that they have for me, I search and saw some good optical mouse over at the Multiply.com Marketplace, let us feature the optical mouse that is being sold by trusted online sellers of Multiply.com, I'm  going to feature it first here and later on reveal what kind of optical mouse that I ordered online.

review: Hed Kandi Discotheque headphones

Hed Kandi reminds me those energetic and moody club music that can make my feet stomp all the way until the music are finished, it also reminds of those vector artwork of Jason Brooks, and that popular song Ever After. But this time Hed Kandi take us more into music as they releases this cute and fashionable Hed Kandi Discotheque head phones, these colorful music gears are inspired from Hed Kandi’s name, style, groove and fashion. We tested it and used it for a day, and loaded my mp3 player with some club music and also Hed Kandi albums, it’s a long time already since I played those music, but I’m glad I went back to it again listening with the use of these cool Hed Kandi headphones.

Interesting spidey news!

Revealed in Marvel Comics’ Ultimate Fallout Issue 4, out Wednesday, the new Spider-Man in the Ultimate universe is a half-black, half-Hispanic teen named Miles Morales. He takes over the gig held by Peter Parker, who was killed in Ultimate Spider-Man Issue 160 in June. - source

I think its the right time to dig in some comics and see what's going on in the weird universe of the Ultimates, I'm sure killing Peter Parker in comics is not about that Clone Wars thing.

Daniel Craig shares his excitement and experience as a cowboy for the movie "Cowboys and Aliens",this shows that Daniel can fit into different roles even that he is not a true blue American cowboy but can still be fit to be one that can fight aliens in the old west as Jake Lonergan. I feel excited to see this film, I love sci movies blended with the old west and this is the first time I'll see a movie with lots of technology and weird alien fighting style during the 1800s. We can also see if Daniel Craig can be more a cowboy than a Bond.

Why Everybody Loves Gardenia

by Daomisyel of Glamour Moments

No exemption! Admit it or not, everybody loves bread! you can substitute or accompany it with any meals or snacks you've wanted. From traditional loaf to other variants, breads are always present in supermarkets, convenience stores and restaurants. Quoting from what I've read online, they said the color of bread indicated a person's social status. The lighter the bread, the higher the status. Oh well, now we knew why some breads we couldn't afford but somehow see similar breads on store that has the same flavor. Thousand years ago, we knew that the whole bread was made from flour and water like a tortilla until Egyptians added yeast to the dough.
