Spyder Philippines Assist Program Charge Your Summer


Hola, mi amigos y amigas! Buenos Dias! Good news to all biking and motorcycle enthusiasts!  Spyder Philippines has launched Spyder Assist Program at Festival Mall in Alabang last March 30, 2012. 
 
Spyder is a top brand known for its high performance multi-sport motorcycle and bicycle helmets and gears in the Philippines and abroad.
 
Spyder-Charge Your Summer is a mall-based activity where Spyder displayed its impressive line of products.
Sports enthusiasts and hobbyists like Uncle Sam,Danny Boy and the rest of Davao City's on any Sunday Rider Club and those who were introduced to the discipline of multi-sport like Ralph will all love Spyder offering of high quality products such as helmets, shades, eye wear and other protective gears and accessories.
Not only that! Spyder Assist,  in cooperation with Standard Insurance, gives motorcycle enthusiasts and hobbyists an adventure beyond limits.
 Spyder Assist gives not just one but two main benefits.
 
For every purchase of any Spyder motorcycle helmet, customers will now have the chance to enroll themselves under Spyder Assist Program. They only have to pay 150 pesos to enjoy full insurance protection under the program. The coverage is good for one year starting with the purchase date indicated on the official receipt.
Spyder Assist offers a Personal Accident insurance coverage of up to P100,000 that protects its policy holder against injuries, including those arising from motor-related incidents, disability and even loss of life.
 
It entitles the policy holder a medical reimbursement benefit of up to 5,000 pesos for accident related injuries, and other motor-related accidents. 
 
Aside from these benefits, Spyder Assist assures motorcyle owners an automatic 30% discount as crash replacement benefit on the purchase of their next helmet in the event of an accident or crash.
 



 
Customers who avail of the Spyder Assist Card are encouraged to register their Spyder Assist card online right away for easy facilitation of insurance-related claims and concerns. To register the coverage, one has to simply scratch the code on the Spyder Assist card that will be given upon purchase. Log on to www.teamspyder.com/spyderassist and complete the registration details there. A copy of the policy will be sent via email.
With Spyder Assist, Spyder has proven that it has its clients’ best interests at heart. If you are a motorcycle rider who values your own safety and protection, all you have to do is pay Php150 pesos for a full coverage and for your own peace of mind. Spyder Assist is something that you wouldn’t think twice of grabbing. With the many road hazards that you are exposed to everyday, it is wise to equip yourself not only with the right gears and accessories but with an insurance policy that can take care of all your needs in the event of an accident, injury, or disablement.
Spyder Philippines is clearly changing the landscape of how sports houses extend after sales service to its customers, expect more high quality products and road safety innovations and protection such as the Spyder Assist Program from this company who promises to do nothing but provide you peace of mind as you travel the off-beaten path. 
It was a well attended event. Congrats Jeman of OrangeTVmagazine.
When I attended the event they gave me a pouch made by Spyder.

The pouch is durable and has an excellent design.  I wish to have a spyder eye wear in the near future.

HOW TO COMMUTE FROM LEGAZPI AIRPORT TO LEGAZPI CITY PROPER


Upon arrival @ Legazpi Airport, you have three options to reach Legazpi City proper:
  • Hire a Van- This is quite expensive because they tend to overprice both the tourists and locals alike but sometimes if they don't get passengers you could ask them to bring you to the central bus terminal in Legazpi for only twenty pesos (Php20).
  • Tricycle- Inside the compound of the airport they charge Php50.00 per trike (regardless of number of passengers). I suggest that you walk just outside the gate of the airport (which is very near) and you could get it as low as Php 25.00 depending on your bargaining skills. One tricycle is good up to 5 persons.
  • Walk towards the main road (Washington Drive) and ride a jeepney bound to Legazpi City proper. A good ten minutes walk (around 500 meters). So if you have a lot of luggage, just take the trike. But if you want some exercise after sitting inside the plane for almost an hour then take a walk.  Turn left when you reach the gate of the airport compound then walk straight ahead then turn right towards Washington Drive where you can hail a jeepney going to Legazpi City proper. Its on your left side if you are facing the road. Fare = Php 8.00 per passenger.

SALUBONG AT CAGSAWA RUINS


  

Bicol, Philippines - Since I was a child, I always look forward to the "Salubong" tradition every Easter Sunday. But my kuya and I were surprised to see the practice for the "Salubong" @ Cagsawa Ruins. As everybody knows, what is left of the church at Cagsawa is only the bell tower when Mayon Volcano erupted in 1814 and spewed lava that covered Cagsawa church and the surrounding areas.
The traditional Salubong is a popular event on Easter Sunday. It is a pre-dawn ritual that re-enacts the Risen Christ's meeting with His mother. It is performed within the churchyard under a specially prepared arch where the veiled image of the Virgin Mary is placed. As soon as the procession nears the church, the bells rang deliriously with joy, announcing the glorious resurrection of Our Lord Jesus Christ!   
       
Then the encounter of the Risen Lord and His Blessed Mother will take place. This is dramatized by the SALUBONG. Little children dressed as angels are slowly lowered by ropes from a high platform and they lift the mourning veil from the grieving Mother Dolorosa and announced to her the resurrection of her dearly beloved Son. The Virgin Mary would then be "Ang Birheng Nagagalak". In other parishes, the angel releases trained doves to snatch away the veil of the Virgin while in others, the angel attaches the veil of the Virgin to balloons to take it far up into the air.
           
While the Regina Coeli is being sung, the little angels scatter flowers and petals to the images of the Mother and Son. The people would then scramble to get the petals as a memento of the event. Farmers would often place these petals in their farm bed for good harvest.
             

The participants in the procession are segregated by gender. The men and boys follow the image of Jesus Christ, while women and girls follow the image of the Virgin Mary. The procession ends with the two groups meeting in the church, where Mass is said.

             
The "Salubong" is an authentic manifestation of Filipino piety and religiosity. Do you know of any counterpart or similar practice in other countries of the "Salubong"?
After every spectacular Easter Sunday Salubong and the solemn Mass, my cousins and I would proceed to our lola's house for an early breakfast of Cacao hot chocolate, suman ( rice cake wrapped in banana leaves and steamed to a sticky consistency) and bihon. Then, we would go to our respective rooms for a much deserved sleep.

CHICKEN DELI


CHICKEN DELI
CHICKEN DELI
David invited www.yummy-tales.blogspot.com and I to try Chicken Deli in SM North Edsa Annex, Quezon City for Alodia's birthday bash.

It is kind of "bitin" for me and Php97.00 cost higher than Jollibee's Php75 price tag for one (1) piece Fried chicken. 

You could try Chicken Deli's chicken inasal meal for Php 97.00. 

Pop na pop for the lasa but bitin for the portion that they served us. It is so small I don't know if they have a bigger size. I hope they improve their portion size.

Verdict: 2 fingers
 
Chicken Deli is located at the 3rd floor of SM City North Edsa Annex. The place is spacious. I particularly like the ceiling lights.

Derek Ramsay moving to TV5


                                           
Oh la la! My favorite actor Derek Ramsay is indeed moving to TV5 according to Bong Osorio, head of ABS-CBN Corporate Communications. Bong confirmed that Derek Ramsay has decided to transfer to TV5.

It is said that TV5 offered Derek Ramsay an amount that was difficult for him to refuse. For months, ABS-CBN has exerted efforts to make him stay as a Kapamilya.  

Derek Ramsay’s contract with ABS-CBN expired at the end of February 2012.

Just two weeks ago, Ramsay confirmed that ABS-CBN offered to renew his contract as a Kapamilya. “Nakita na namin ‘yung offer. I think they’re exchanging e-mails now. My parents, my dad just sent an e-mail to Sir Gabby (Lopez), and nag-uusap usap na,” Ramsay said at that time. “Yung mga little details, sila nag-aayos eh, so I’m just waiting for that phone call na.”

Speculations about Ramsay’s transfer to TV5 have been reported in media for months, and the actor repeatedly denied that money is behind his decision to switch networks.

Ramsay is the latest ABS-CBN star to move to the No. 3 network. Last year, actress-singer Sharon Cuneta announced her transfer to the Manuel Pangilinan-led media company after signing a reported P1-billion contract for five years. Other ABS-CBN celebrities who have moved to TV5 include Willie Revillame, Mariel Rodriguez and Aga Muhlach.

Stars who have opted to stay and renew their contracts with ABS-CBN include Anne Curtis, Cristine Reyes and Toni Gonzaga. ABS-CBN was also able to sign-up stars from other networks, including Iza Calzado, Janice de Belen, Richard Gomez and Carmina Villaroel.

Still with Star Cinema?

Ramsay’s transfer to TV5 was first reported by columnist Shirley Matias-Pizarro and published at the Manila Bulletin on Sunday.

Quoting unnamed sources, Pizarro said Ramsay will maintain his contract with Star Cinema to do movies this year and the next, although ABS-CBN's statement did not mention this.

Ramsay’s latest movie, the digital film “Corazon: Ang Unang Aswang,” was a surprise hit and is now on its third week of theatrical release. He also starred in two of the biggest movies last year – “The Unkabogable Praybeyt Benjamin” with Vice Ganda and “No Other Woman” with Anne Curtis and Cristine Reyes. Ramsay joined the Star Magic concert in Hawaii last Saturday.

Break in Australia

On Monday, Ramsay said on his official Twitter account that he is taking a one-week break in Australia. “Be safe, babe! Gonna miss you,” he told girlfriend, ABS-CBN actress Angelica Panganiban, via Twitter.

As of posting, Ramsay has not mentioned anything about his transfer to TV5 on his Twitter account.

PHD BOY!


A first-grade teacher, Ms Neelam (Age 28), was having trouble with one of her students.The teacher asked, "Boy what is your problem?"

Boy answered, "I'm too smart for the first-grade. My sister is in the third-grade and I'm smarter than she is! I think I should be in the third-grade too!"

Ms Neelam had enough. She took Boy to the Principal's office. The principal told Ms. Neelam he would give the boy a test and if he failed to answer any of his questions he was to go back to the first-grade and behave. She agreed.

Boy was brought in and the conditions were explained to him and he agreed to take the test:

Principal: "What is 3x3?"

Boy: "9"

Principal: "What is 6x6?"

Boy: "36"

And so it went with every question the principal thought a third-grade should know. The principal looks at Ms Neelam and tells her, "I think the boy can go to the third-grade."

Ms Neelam says to the principal, "I have some of my own questions. Can I ask him?" The principal and Boy both agree.

Ms Neelam asks: "What does a cow have four of that I have only two of?

Boy, after a moment: "Legs"!

Ms Neelam: "What is in your pants that you have but I do not have?"

Boy: "Pockets"!

Ms Neelam: "What starts with a C and ends with a T, is hairy, oval, delicious and contains thin whitish liquid?" 

Boy: Coconut

Ms Neelam: " What goes in hard and pink then comes out soft and sticky?" The Principal's eyes open really wide and before he could stop the answer, Boy quickly answered..

Boy: Bubblegum

Ms Neelam: "What does a man do standing up, a woman does sitting down and a dog does on three legs?" The Principal's eyes again open really wide and before he could stop the answer....

Boy: Shake hands

Ms Neelam: "Now I will ask some "Who am I" sort of questions, okay?"

Boy: "Yep"

Ms Neelam: "You stick Your poles inside me. You tie me down to get me up.. I get wet before you do."

Boy: "Tent"

Ms Neelam: "A finger goes in me. You fiddle with me when you're bored. The best man always has me first."The Principal was looking restless, a bit tense and took one large Patiala Vodka peg.

Boy: "Wedding Ring"

Ms Neelam: "I come in many sizes. When I'm not well, I drip. When you blow me, you feel good."

Boy: "Nose"

Ms Neelam: "I have a stiff shaft. My tip penetrates. I come with a quiver."

Boy: "Arrow"

Ms Neelam: "What word starts with a 'F' and ends in 'K' that means lot of heat and excitement?"

Boy: "Firetruck"

Ms Neelam: "What word starts with a 'F' and ends in 'K' & if u don't get it u have to use your hand"

Boy: "Fork"

Ms Neelam: "What is it that all men have. It's longer for some men than on others. The nuns dont need it. The pope doesn't use his and a man gives it to his wife after they're married?"

Boy: "SURNAME"

Ms Neelam: "What part of the man has no bone but has muscles, has lots of veins, like pumping, & is responsible for making
love?"

Boy: "HEART"

The principal breathed a sigh of relief and said to the teacher: "Send this Boy to University, I got the last ten questions wrong myself!"

Symptoms and signs of heart attack


My Mama and Papa died of heart attack. Heart Attack is the leading cause of death and disability for both men and women not only in the Philippines but globally. Heart disease isn't contagious. You can't catch it like you can the flu or a cold. Instead, certain things increase a person's chances of getting cardiovascular disease. Doctors call these things risk factors.

Some of these risk factors a person can't do anything about, like being older and having other people in the family who have had the same problems. But people do have control over some risk factors like:
  •  smoking
  •  having high blood pressure
  •  being overweight
  •  and not exercising can increase the risk of getting cardiovascular disease.
.
Symptoms and signs of heart attack may include the following:
  • Chest pain or discomfort that is crushing, like a heavy weight; or squeezing, like a tight band around the chest; or an ache in the centre of the chest. The pain may radiate to the neck, jaw, shoulders, arms (especially the left arm), back, abdomen, face or teeth. The pain is persistent (longer than 15 minutes), and does not ease with rest. The pain is sometimes mistaken for indigestion. Note that in some cases, heart attacks are painless.
  • Profuse sweating
  • Difficulty breathing
  • Feeling dizzy or light-headed
  • Nausea
  • Pale, clammy skin
  • The pulse may be fast or irregular.
  • The person may suddenly collapse and lose consciousness
First aid for heart attack:

  • Encourage the person to sit still, with knees bent to ease strain on the heart.
  • Talk to him calmly and reassuringly, and loosen any tight clothing.
  • Monitor any changes in condition.
  • The person should take one aspirin with water (Unless he is allergic to or unable to take aspirin). Aspirin helps to prevent blood clotting

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!


Welcome
