Political Ads

Politics has never been an easy thing and most of the time, they are just too complicated to understand. This is also the reason why most people are not paying so much attention to it not unless they are highly affected by the situation brought to them by their current Government administration. I, myself, is not too interested to it so i really don't mind seeing a lot of campaign ads posted into different walls in the street from one block to another.
But not necessarily all advertisements about political whether they are anti or pro , are boring and sophisticated. Some ads are actually made funnier in a way that it is easy for us to understand the message that they are trying to deliver like what is being done with this Political copywriter commercial showing a spoof for president Obama and Perry Belcher.
Kindly check the video below

They were both animated which makes it more interesting to watch. Comparing it to a typical campaign ads which is boring and complicated, i would rather stick to this animated one because despite of the fact that it is done in a comedic way , it was able to deliver the humor or the main thoughts in a very easy way in a point that no one will question it or will leave no doubt in their minds after watching them. This can be very applicable not just to political advertisements but all kind of commercials in general. For me it has a very interesting approach that everyone will appreciate.

I want to try Paintball

I was rewatching the episodes of The Big Bang Theory awhile ago. I was so busy lately because I was in a job hunting mode last week. I have been been unemployed for a year so it's time for me to enter a new career industry. Well, I am not necessarily unemployed, it's just that, I am not working under any employer because I am a freelancer though I realized that I am not receiving any benefits from that job so I decided to make it as my part time and at the same time, I will look for a new stable job. After a long week of job hunting, I was able to find one and tomorrow will be my first day. Anyway, back to The Big Bang Theory, I am really a big fan of the show and i never get tired of watching those previous episodes over and over again.
There was this episode where Sheldon, Leonard, Rajesh and Howard were playing Paintball as if they're taking the game seriously and acting like real soldiers who were sent out in a war. Sheldon suddenly came out from his hide out alone and displaying himself to their opponents and as a result, he was hit by his opponents multiple times. Leonard, Rajesh and Howard came out too to take their revenge. The gang won the paintball competition and received a trophy.
Well, it seems that Paintball is getting more and more popular nowadays, as a matter of fact, the sport has been featured many times on TV. I saw it being featured in 'Aha!" hosted by Drew Arellano last week which made me more eager to try such fun and exciting sport.
The main goal here usually is to capture the flag. You have to avoid being caught or being hit by paintball splats. There are many reasons why you guys should try or learn Paintball. Aside from being fun and exciting, Paintball is very recreational and is also safe. Though you are required to wear protective gears or better yet, get a starter kit like the Tippmann 98 Kits. It has everything you need including the starter gun, and other miscellaneous item. You might want to get 98 Custom Barrel and play the game exactly like a pro.
I'm sure it feels like you're playing a video game in real life version. If ever I'll get a chance, i will definitely encourage my friends and hopefully my colleagues to play such an entertaining game like Paintball.

Clean and Very Appealing Marble Floors at Mall

I was in the mall yesterday, waiting for my friend to arrive on our meeting place when something took my attention. It may sound funny but I was pretty impressed with their floor and the finishing material that is being used to it. The entire building's flooring is made up of Marble finishing. I know i should be expecting to see this kind of finishing material being used for malls and other commercial establishments but this one is quite different. It's neat, it's glossy and it's immensely beautiful compare to other malls I have been. (Clean and glossy Marble floors)

It's true that most buildings or establishments today, whether it's commercial or residential are making use of Marble or even Granite as their main finishing material, but I think the quality, appearance and durability depends on the brand and how well the material is being installed.
Aside from flooring, both marble and granite are very effective for kitchen countertops too. You can see them in almost all modern kitchens today. It is undeniable that Marble is considered as one of the top choices of most home owners when it comes to kitchen countertops. It gives more color to your kitchen and adds extra value for your house.
As I've said, the material should be installed properly and in order to do that, you have to hire an expert. It is very practical to get a professional service like the countertops vancouver installation and fabrication services being offered by Floform, a well known company in Canada who has been in the industry for 50 years and still counting. You can check their site at http://www.floform.com to see what else they have to offer for you and for your beloved kitchen.

Roof Maintenance

Sudden change of weather is quite alarming and it seems not so cooperating lately because of the non stop rain caused by Typhoon Ramon. Me and my friends are actually scheduled for an out-of-town trip yesterday but because of the silly sudden change of weather, we all decided to postponed it and moved it to a new date. Even my scheduled job interview yesterday was postponed because of the silly weather conditions.
Unfortunately, we failed to check the roof before the rainy season arrives. Roofing is probably one of the most important part of House improvement. Remember that roof protects us from any worst weather condition and keep us warm during the winter nights. We started to experience some roof leaks near our kitchen and some unwanted stain in the ceiling. Stain and molds are few of the signs of roof leaks. They can weaken the ceiling and the entire roof foundation and will bring danger not just to your house but also for your family that's why we should not ignore this issue. Keep in mind that if you let it unrepaired, it might get worst and may cost you a lot when you ask for repair.
Regular maintenance is indeed very important and for better result and quality, you might consider hiring a professional Roofers. They have the right equipments and they are well trained in such field. They can finish the job in no time too.

Top 10 Protege Revealed!! Who's Your Bet?

Finally, the Top 10 Protege was revealed yesterday. After the three face off round, each mentors got their official protege who will be battling for the big break. Things are getting more intense and I'm really excited for the next round. For the mean time, I'm going to rank the top ten protege based on their performance.
(From Least to Greatest)
10. Nomer Limatog
Nomer performed "Don't Stop Believin'" by The Journey which is just okay for me. I think he should practice more on his diction but nevertheless, he did pretty well knowing that he's just 10 years old. He is the youngest Protege who made it to Top 10

9. Jensen Kyra Teñoso
Jensen performed "Stand Up for Love" by Destiny's Child. She did pretty well but I'm not really fond of screaming.

8. Rosalyn Novarro
Rosalyn performed "I Will Always Love You" but her repetitive hand gestures is quite awkward and I don't think she sang it in her own unique way.

7. So Wat?
So Wat? Performed their own version of "Aint No Mountain High Enough". The guy with the husky voice reminds me of Bruce Springsteen and obviously the best among the group.

6. Denise Barbacena
Denise sang "Pangarap na Bituin" which sounded so well and you can feel her connection to the song.

5. Krizza Neri
Krizza did an amazing performance of "No One" by Alicia Keys. She did some rapping too which is her biggest advantage among the other contestants.

4. Lirah Bermudez

Lirah performed "Hush / I Will Survive" by Pussycat Dolls. She sang it by playing her guitar which is a big plus for her. She just have to work on her diction.

3. Samantha Felizco
She's one of my bets and I love her rendition of "Rolling in the Deep" (originally performed by Adele). She nailed it and probably one of the best cover I've ever heard.

2. Lovely Embuscado
Lovely Embuscado is obviously one of the crowd's favorites but I'm not putting her on the second spot because of sympathy. I think she really has the voice and she did pretty well on her rendition of "Hurt" (Performed by Christina Aguilera). She actually reminds me of Melinda Doolittle of American idol Season 3.

1. Kenneth Monico
Kenneth wowed the judges after singing "On Bended Knee" which is supposed to be a group song. He was able to hit all the high notes and his performance is simple remarkable.

This ranking is just based on the performances they give during the Face Off round. It might vary base on their future performances.

You're Kitchen countertop for example is very prone to damage and is really expensive and costly when you ask for repairs. You have to choose nothing but the best material for your countertops to make them highly durable. I highly suggest that you use granite for your kitchen countertops. Marble is also a great choice but granite is much better. might be quite expensive but the quality of it is simply incomparable to others. It has this nice glossy effect that will definitely make your kitchen more appealing and eye catching than ever.
However, if you chose granite as your finishing material for your kitchen counter top, just make sure that you maintain it in a regular basis. There are specialized cleaning solution that you can apply to it. Granite is not as porous as marble and is not prone to stain but you still have to avoid any scratches to the seal covering of it as much as possible.

It comes up with so many variety of designs and colors too so you can definitely find something that will suit the design or color of your kitchen.

Missing Memory Card Storage

We should be very grateful that we have phones that can do multitasks. It's pretty impressive that a small device can do so many things that none of us can ever imagine. Aside from the normal text message and call features, mobiles phones today especially those smartphones include digital camcorders, camera, radio, mobile Internet and even TV!

As for the camcorders and Camera, the phones are now using memory card to store all the photos and other related files.I mainly use my phone not for sending text messages nor giving my friends a call but to use its built in camera and save my downloaded songs to its audio player.I am currently using a
2GB Memory card, which is good enough for me since I used to transfer my files in my PC. But there are instances that my memory card got corrupted, leaving me no choice but to replace it. Just like what happened last year when we hit Manila Ocean Park to treat my little brother for his birthday. I was able to take a lot of shots but after we got home, I was surprised to see that my phone was set to Phone Storage and the Memory Card Storage was missing. I tried to input the memory card to other phones but still not being recognize. I really felt so bad because I can't even upload any pictures in my blog regarding about that trip.
They said that it is still possible to retrieve photos from corrupted Memory card, Hard drive or digital cameras. What you need is a picture recovery software which has an ability to recover those photos. It is highly in demand today especially for those experienced Digital photographers to save their photos in case any worst case scenario occurs.

Let's Explore Korea Electronics Show 2011

Mark your calendar now because we're just few weeks away from the much awaited Korean Electronics Show of 2011. The event is set to kick off this coming October 12 and will run for 3 consecutive days (Oct 15). If you are into gadgets, that you better grab this opportunity to witness those highly innovated electronics that will be showcased at KES.
The event will feature the latest gadgets and technology related to Multimedia, Telecommunication, Industrial Electronics, medical, fashion, display , construction, IT and a whole lot more.

It is a very interesting event indeed and I'm sure everyone is so excited about this. Let me also grab this opportunity to thank you guys for leaving wonderful and relevant comments in my previous post about KES (You can check it here.) You have raised some questions regarding about the event and so I decided to make some research and find the answers for you. Hope you find it helpful too.

Q1 : Is There Any Competition Involved?

This question was raised by April asking if Korea is competing against other countries most especially in Japan. Actually, there is no competition involved in this expo. According to a reliable source (Check it Here), there are undeniably larger expo than KES , most notably the IFA of Germany, the CES of America and the CEATEC of Japan. KES has proven to be one of the well trusted and most popular Electronic expo in the world too but they never compete against those larger events. Their main goal is to entertain attendees through the various kiosk displays and aesthetic designs which has been their tradition for almost 4 decades.
This is taken from the recently held KES 2010. Check how extravagant their expo was and I'm sure there are so much things stored for us this year. They said that there will be there will be over 200 booths from 24 institutes. The event this year will still be held at KINTEX, the 5th largest exhibition space in Asia.
This year the show is expected to emphasize the convergence between software and hardware. How will software meet hardware to brighten up the IT industry as well as improving the quality of our lives? The answers lie within KES 2011. (source: IT Times)

In relation to it, the event will also organize various Smart Korea Conferences that will tackle future government policies regarding IT and various government ministries.

Q2 : Robots To be Featured in the Event?

Another interesting question from our fellow blogger. I mentioned HUBO, the world's second Humanoid robot and EveR, the world's second female android in my previous post which are both amazing product of South Korea. If there are robots to be feature in the event, well, that is something that all of us should look forward to. I'm sure the event this year will give us more interesting inventions.
Looking back at last year's event, check out this amazing 3D software that gives shoppers an ability to choose their 3D digital Avatar where in they can put different clothes to it before purchasing the items.
Since they are focusing more on software this year, expect to see more of this highly innovated technology. As a matter of fact, they are set to release a specialized mobile application for this event. Yup! A special Smartphone app will be released soon for KES 2011 and that is something to watch out for.
You can follow them at their Official Facebook fanpage or their Twitter page for more updates and to know how to avail their special smartphone application for Korean attendees.

An interface of their upcoming Smartphone App

Q3 : What to expect from KES this year?

Last but not the least is the question from Rami Jinr. I don't have the exact details about the gadgets to be featured this year but that's definitely something to look forward to right? But I'll be more than willing to give you a short recap of the last year's event. From these, you will know that KES 2011 will be a bigger blast. Technology evolves rapidly and drastically my friend so I can assure that there are so many things to expect this year.
KES 2010 was a big blast indeed (Check the report here).They had a total of 1,823 representative buyers of IT industries from 23 nations such as Russia, China, and India participated in the show, as well as about 750 companies.


Modern Electronic appliances that will absolutely transform every household, making their work much easier and faster.
Amazing Samsung Internet TV, 3D Camera and LG Remote Control System (Innotek)
Stunning Windows Phone
Check how busy those attendees with those gadgets featured in the last year's Event.
As for the Medical Industry, this 3D microscope will change our feature indeed.
Things are getting smaller nowadays don't you think? Check out this Micro Camcorder and Micro Speakers.

The 2 of the biggest Electronics manufacturer LG and Samsung will be present this year too and I'm sure they have something up their sleeves for this upcoming Korea Electronic Show 2011

If I am given a chance, I will definitely grab it and visit Korea's biggest electronics show.
So if you're interested guys, Visit the Korea Electronics Show 2011 and don't forget to show us your experience huh!
