MMDA Announces Week-long Suspension of Number Coding

MMDA Announces Week-long Suspension of Number Coding

Tthe MMDA announced that the Unified Vehicular Volume Reduction Program (UVVRP), commonly known as the number coding system, is lifted from April 2 (Monday) to April 9., 2012 (Monday), except in the Republic of MAKATI where the number coding system will be lifted only from April 5 (Holy Thursday) to April 9, 2012 (Monday).

While the number coding system is in effect in the Republic of Makati, motorists may pass Makati through EDSA and President Osmena Ave. but not the internal roads of Makati. 

MMDA said the lifting of the coding ban would promote fast and efficient travel to and from Metropolitan Manila. 


This is a good news to fellow travelers who will be going home to their respected provinces. At least you and I, fellow travelers, will not worry anymore about the number coding (except for those who will travel to Makati).

I wish everyone a safe travel. May God Bless us always!

Bon Chon Restaurant

Bon Chon Restaurant

Bon Chon Restaurant is the newest addition to the Korean Twice Fried chicken craze. 

Everyone is talking about this new chicken restaurant in town!  Please note that this review is base on our own experience.  We paid for our own meals with our own money. 

It seems to me that people can't get enough of this chicken that they go to this restaurant and even have them delivered straight to their offices and homes almost everyday. Imagine that!

Cute wall.

The dinner crowd at Bon Chon Restaurant.

I overheard these guys that they were invited by the PR to do a review. After eating, they were given tokens and umbrella by the lady in white.

Bon Chon or “New Village” is a Korean restaurant which traces its roots in South Korea. It conquered the United States and had most food critiques craving for the spicy chicken wings glazed in soy-garlic. The now famed chicken is crunchy in the outside while maintaining the juicy meat inside.

So after an event at Ayala Triangle Square I asked www.yummy-tales.blogspot.com to accompany me to Bon Chon restaurant so I can eat the famous Bon Chon chicken. Unfortunately, the lady in the counter convinced me to try the fish n' chips instead. Bad choice:-( 

Whoaaaaa! The lady manning the counter said that their bestseller was the spicy fish n'chips. I am a Bicolana but the fish n'chips is way too spicy for me. I wanted to crack my knuckles for listening to her and not my instinct to buy the chicken wings instead:-(.

Verdict: It is a thumbs down for the spicy fish n'chips. I had to take it home because I can't barely eat the too spicy fish n'chips. I better get smart and follow my instinct next time around and order the chicken instead. Two fingers.

Bon Chon Restaurant should improve their dish.

We will try their chicken next time.

Wilma Doesnt Topless in Playboy Magazine

"What else is new?" Mariposa quips when I told her that comedian and Mariposa's all-time favorite pinoy supermodel Wilma Doesnt  is the cover girl of Playboy Magazine April 2012 fourth year anniversary issue.   

Yes, folks! Wilma Doesnt undressed for the cover of Playboy Magazine Philippines this April 2012 entitled "Embracing All Colors".

For me parang nakakasawa na lahat na lang nag to top less. Summer nga panay ulan naman bakit kaya panay topless sila sa magazine? Hays, please don't emulate this people.

In 2003 Raymond Isaac launched a photo exhibit of his famous works one of which was a photograph of a naked and pregnant Wilma Doesnt.

Then she appeared again in Preview Magazine in 2007 again in all her pregnant glory. 

To my readers please be guided accordingly. Don't emulate everything that they do.

HOW TO CHECK WHO G+ YOU

As bloggers we need to check who G+ us from time to time so we could reciprocate right? 
 
To toggle between profile views:

1. Sign in to Google+.
2. Click the Profile icon at the top of the page.
3. In the View profile as box on your profile, enter the name of the person whose view you'd like to check.
4. Review your profile information from the perspective of the person you've selected.

This may take so much of your time but sometimes you have to check also. If you don't like what you see, you can click Edit Profile. To switch back to your own view, simply click Done.

Yes, I know, you must be saying this is such a waste of your time and like you, I hope the people who just drop links and run during activities would learn how to be honest and learn how to reciprocate:-) but that is the dream. And we can never be stop to dream.

You yourself could also self-check on what was posted on your own Google Plus Profile. Here is how you could check your collection of internet treasures:

Every time you click +1, it shows on your public google + profile. You'll find your full list of +1's in a special tab on your public Google profile. You can choose to show your +1's tab to the world.  It is the place to go if you want to personally manage the ever-expanding record of things you love around the web.

To manage the links displayed on your profile:

1. Sign in to your Google profile.
2. Click Edit Profile.
3. Click the About tab.
4. Click the link section you want to edit.
• To display a link that Google suggests, click Add beside the link.
• To add a link of your own, click Add custom link, then provide a label for the link and its URL.
5. Choose the visibility setting you'd like to apply to the section you're editing.
6. Click Save.

When you add links to your profile, you can choose to place them into three different sections.

• Other profiles: Place links here to webpages that are specifically about you. For example, a link to your personal webpage and links to your profile on other social networks are good to include in this section.
• Contributor to: Add links here where people can find your work online. For instance, links to sites you've written for should be included in this section.
• Recommended links: Use this section to display links that you think visitors to your profile would like to check out. Imagine if Natalia was an economist, she may choose to add links to her favorite economic think tanks and blogs.

I hope this post have help some people who were asking me, on how they could check who g+ their posts.

Please add me to your circle my g+ profile is travelona Shoestring. Kindly send me a private message so I can add you too!
