An Evening with Krista at Pinoy Bistro
2008-01-04 09:30:00
Upcoming singing sensation "Krista" was scheduled to host an intimate evening of music and dancing Thursday, January 3, 2008 at Pinoy Bistro Cerritos. "Krista" can entertain the crowd with her beautiful voice as well as her dances. Other singers were on hand to render lovely songs onstage on this night of live music and dancing. Krista is the daughter of Carmen and Dr. Kliener. The crowd had lots of fun with good food and live music. Krista is indeed the new talent to watch out for. This will be her last day to host this Holiday Season. Indeed this will be a new and different "Krista" which I have seen grown-up to be an up-coming world-class talent. She will be having her own concert soon (sometime in March 2008) which will surely captivate the Fil-Am community with her unique talent and a face that can launch a thousand ships.We are proud of you Krista, and so is the Fil-Am community. I can't wait for your launching and upcoming concert. (By Jay Fermin ppp-usa)Pinoy Bistro...

Rose Parade Celebrates 2008 from Pasadena to the World
2008-01-03 09:03:00
"BAM!", "Kick it up a notch", "Feel the love", "Oh yeah, babe", and "Spice it up". These are the famous catch phrase of world-renowed chef Emeril Lagasse, grand marshal of Pasadena ’s 119th Tournament of Rose s Parade themed “Passport to the World ’s Celebrations”. He commonly refers to food that is not seasoned as "not happy" and will add seasoning to make it "happy" on his Food Network TV show “The Essence of Emeril”. I caught up with Emeril at the final judging of the beautiful flower loaded floats of the Rose Parade last December 31, 2007 at the Rosemont Pavilion near the Rose Bowl together with Tournament of Roses (TORA) President CL Keedy and the three float judges event and floral experts Sam Lemheney, Jessica Todd Smith and Bryan Wittman accompanied by police escort and numerous white suiters, Rose Parade volunteers who are dressed in all white attire for the annual New Years Day Parade.“It is truly an honor to be part of our country’s most beloved New Year’s...

"Jueteng Power" in Pampanga
2007-12-31 00:50:00
PerryScope Perry DiazThe victory of Fr. Eduardo "Among Ed" Tongol Panlilio over two powerful political Goliaths in Pampanga last year demonstrated once again that "people power" would prevail when all other means would fail. But unlike the "people power" that toppled the Marcos dictatorship in 1986 and deposed Joseph Estrada in 2001, the "people power" in Pampanga was different -- it was done through the ballot. "Among Ed," as he was affectionately called by his followers, brought down his two rivals who have close ties to President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. One was 29-year-old Mark Lapid -- the incumbent governor at that time and son of former governor and now Sen. Lito Lapid -- who was referred to in some quarters as the "quarry-tax-theft king" for alleged corruption in the "lahar" quarry operations. The other was provincial board member and former Lubao Mayor Lilia Pineda -- Arroyo's town mate and "kumadre." Pineda was referred to as the "Jueteng Queen" because of her marriage to...

The Trip to Snow-filled Yuhaviat
2007-12-29 18:11:00
If someone told you they had just spent a fun-filled weekend at a popular southern California resort called Yuhaviat, you probably wouldn't know what they were talking about. Yuhaviat is a Serrano Indian word that means "Pine Place," and it is the name Big Bear had for more than a thousand years.Big Bear is no longer called Yuhaviat, because back in 1845, Benjamin Davis Wilson rode into Yuhaviat Valley with a posse of 20 men. They were chasing Indians who had been raiding their ranches in Riverside. As they entered the valley, they found it swarming with bear.Wilson divided his men into two-man teams. Each team went out, roped a bear and brought it back to camp. They had eleven bear at the camp all at the same time. This prompted Wilson to come up with the name Big Bear Lake. However, it should be noted that Big Bear Lake is a man-made lake that didn't exist in 1845. The lake Wilson named Big Bear was actually the natural lake at the east end of the valley, now known as Baldwin La...

Rodel E. Rodis, December 28, 2007 If Terri Hatcher’s character in Desperate Housewives ever slips and breaks her spinal column while strolling on Wisteria Lane, she would be well-advised to seek treatment at the Memorial Hermann Institute for Rehabilitation and Research (TIRR) at the University of Texas Hospital in Houston. If she’s really fortunate, she would be treated by Dr. Teodoro Castillo, a Spinal Cord Injury specialist who has a diploma from "some med school in the Philippines”. Last week, on the Sunday morning before Christmas, Dr. Castillo was interviewed on ABC about Buffalo Bills football player Kevin Everett who suffered a life-threatening dislocation and fracture of his cervical spine during a home game with the Denver Broncos on September 27. After surgeons operated and repaired a break between the third and fourth vertebrae of his spinal cord, they announced that chances were slim that Everett would ever walk again.But to everyone's surprise, on December 23, ...

Familes from all walks of life gather together at the stroke of mindnight for the salubong (Welcoming the New Year). They light firecrackers, or bet their drums and pans.

New Year's Resolution of a Blogger
2007-12-25 20:08:00
It's almost 2008, so here are five New Year's resolutions you should consider:1. I will spend no more than one hour writing each blog post. Harder than it sounds, but with practice, you can become consistently quick at publishing to your blog. More content means more eyes on your site.2. I will figure out this podcasting thing. I'm throwing this one in for my own benefit, but I think it applies to all blogs. Grab a microphone, record yourself reading a new blog post, and upload the MP3 recording to your blog. That's podcasting, baby. You'll improve your image and reach more Web users by adding podcasts to your blog.3. I will participate in others' conversations. Spend some time each day - even if only 30 minutes - searching the Web for blog conversations related to your market. Comment at other blogs to enhance their users' experiences, and you'll reap what you sow at your own blog.4. I will hammer out a great 2008 themed approach. Without one, you're up the prover...

Here’s how to celebrate Pasko, the traditional Filipino Christmas:
2007-12-25 02:12:00
Put up a Filipino Christmas “tree“. Play Christmas tunes like “Pasko na naman” and “Pasko na sinta ko“. Attend the “Misa de Gallo” - midnight masses that began on December 16. (After church) buy Christmas foods like puto bumbong, bibingka, suman and hot ginger tea (salabat). Display your Christmas parols, star-shaped lanterns made from colored chinese paper, capiz shells and brightened with either candles or lights. Expect “cumbancheros,” or carolers, to visit your house with musical instruments to serenade you and your neighbors. Watch the “Panunuluyan” in the town plaza (oops, no plaza here in the U.S.) on Christmas Eve. This is a re-enactment of the Holy Couple’s journey to Bethlehem and portrays the lack of hospitality they encountered along the way. Gather with friends and relatives for “Noche Buena” after the Mass ends. Serve pandesal, queso de bola, home-made hot tsokolate and “mansanas na marami”. This is a festive meal followed by the excha...

Then Noel G. called me to check out the "red dot" beside the moon. Malamig lumabas so I decided to shoot from indoors--took out the screen from my window and fire away. Used my D1X, with the 600 Sigma mirror lens, mounted on tripod. The second photo with a bigger moon (looked like cropped) was taken using a 2x on the sigma. No cropping.

Not Best Buy After All?
2007-12-23 23:59:00
December 23, 2007The Connecticut attorney general's office sued Best Buy in May, charging the electronics heavyweight with using deceptive in-store websites to trick customers into paying higher prices than available on the company's actual site."We thought Best Buy had addressed this," Connecticut Atty. Gen. Richard Blumenthal told me the other day. "That's what they said to us. Apparently that's not the case." Apparently not. Last week, Simi Valley resident Leigh Murphy, 53, went online in search of a new DVD player. He finally settled on a Toshiba model that he found on Bestbuy.com, marked down from $79.99 to $71.99.He decided to stop by the store and buy it there instead. "I just assumed the same price would be available," Murphy said. "That's why I didn't order it online."He found the DVD player at the store without difficulty, but it was selling for the full $79.99 price. Murphy asked a salesman about the discrepancy. He said he'd found it online for less.The salesman g...

PerryScope: Quo Vadis, Filipino Veterans?
2007-12-23 06:35:00
Perry DiazA year ago, at a summit held at the Philippine Embassy in Washington, DC, representatives of various groups of Filipino Veterans of World War II and their advocates met. The participants unanimously approved the formation of a coalition that would lobby for the passage of a full equity bill. More than 20 Filipino veteran groups and community advocates were unified under the banner of the National Alliance for Filipino Veterans Equity (NAFVE). In February 2007, they formed a steering committee and hired a staff of three legislative consultants -- Filipino-Americans with strong ties to the Democratic Party -- to lobby for the Equity Bill. By the summer of 2007, the 60-year legislative impasse was finally broken… or so it seemed. In my article, "Hope Brightens Up for Filipino Veterans" ( July 6, 2007), I said: "The U.S. Senate Veterans Affairs Committee marked up -- or approved -- S.1315 which contains a modified version of the Filipino Veterans of World War II Equity Act o...

Telltale Signs/ THE GRINCH WHO STOLE THE FILVETS’ CHRISTMAS
2007-12-22 23:35:00
Rodel E. Rodis, December 21, 2007When I was in Washington DC last February, I sensed a palpable excitement among the veterans and their ardent supporters that the Filipino Veterans Equity Bill would be passed by the US Congress in 2007. This optimism was fueled by the appointment of the two principal sponsors of the bill in the Senate and in the House, Sen. Daniel Akaka (D-Hawaii) and Rep. Bob Filner (D-California), as chairs of the veterans committees of their respective chambers, thanks to the Democratic sweep in the November 2006 elections.By April of 2007, both Sen. Akaka and Rep. Filner had conducted hearings on their respective equity bills and had garnered their committees’ approval. It had never advanced to this stage before and many believed that it would be just a matter of time before the bills are brought to a floor vote in the Senate and House.The principle was one thing but the principal was another. How much should the Filipino WW II veterans (“Filvets”) receiv...

Telltale Signs/ SANTA'S HOME IS MELTING

Rodel E.

According to a new scientific study, the frozen sea ice within the Arctic Circle could disappear entirely by 2040. It is getting hotter in the arctic regions and colder and wetter in the tropical zones. This is the phenomenon known as climate change.Despite the Bush administration’s repeated insistence that climate change is "unproven conjecture" (the position of the oil industry which produced George W. Bush and Dick Cheney), more than 10,000 delegates from some 190 countries around the world gathered in Bali, Indonesia for two weeks in early December of 2007 to discuss the reality of climate change.Even before the Bali Conference began, scientists from all over the world, including the US, were already unified in their view that climate change is indeed t...

It's Time For A Change
2007-12-17 15:52:00
As we close the year, we hear a lot of people say, "Thank God this year will soon be over." Indeed, 2007 is a year that most people would like to forget and just move on. A lot of events in the Philippines have made us to wonder: "Where are we heading as a people and as a nation?" Many Filipinos have given up hope that our country will ever get out of the abyss of corruption and poverty. The recent survey conducted by Pulse Asia showed President Arroyo as the "Most Corrupt President in History." Arroyo was named as "Most Corrupt" by 42% of the respondents followed by Ferdinand Marcos at 35%, Joseph Estrada at 16%, Fidel Ramos at 5%, and Corazon Aquino at 1%. Arroyo's rah rah boys were quick to dispute the poll blaming the media for her poor rating. She needs to understand that she made the news and the media merely reported it. While it can be argued that Marcos was more corrupt than Arroyo, the real significance of the survey is that almost one out of two Filipinos perceived Arroy...
