NORFOLK, Va. - The Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins had a streak of four straight wins halted Friday night as the Norfolk Admirals skated to a 4-1 victory at the Norfolk Scope. Pierre-Luc Letourneau-Leblond (1G-2A) and Jay Rosehill (2G-1A) each recorded three points in the win for the Admirals.
The game's first goal came at 7:46 of the first period thanks to a ferocious Admirals forecheck. Letourneau-Leblond pounced on a turnover and sailed a shot toward the net that Rosehill deflected up high over Wilkes-Barre/Scranton goalie Brad Thiessen.
Late in the second period, the Penguins took advantage of a lucky bounce to knot the contest at one. As Norfolk played a puck off its own back wall, the puck kicked out in front of the net for the Warren Peters to stuff by goalie Jeff Deslauriers with 2:18 remaining until the intermission.
The Admirals would own the beginning of the third period and build a 4-1 lead in large part to the efforts of Rosehill and Letourneau-Leblond. The flurry began at 3:02 as Devante Smith-Pelly gathered a loose puck at the Penguins blueline and centered a feed to Josh Brittain for the go-ahead goal.
Three minutes later, an outlet pass by the Penguins clipped off a skate went directly to Rosehill who found alone in the slot for a slapshot past Thiessen. Letourneau-Leblond soon thereafter returned the favor for Rosehill to complete a three-goal Admirals outburst over a span of 5:57.
Deslauriers finished with 31 saves for Norfolk to gather his first win of the season. Thiessen fell to 9-9-1 on the season, stopping 23-of-27 shots.
The Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins and Norfolk Admirals face off again on Saturday, Feb. 9 at 7:15PM. Listen in on 102.3 the Mountain and AHLLive.com.

I resisted buying this collection initially as I already have MANY alima eyeshadows, both shimmer and matte, but I needed a little extra romance—The descriptors on these colors made it so hard to resist!, so i caved. So glad I did, I tried the true love look and it really made my green eyes pop! Now I can't wait to see what happens with smoldering glances….

1. Topic title
Example: Speeding
2. Definition of the problem
Example: Speeding is defined by exceeding 45 mph in town and measured by a radar.
3. Literature Review
At least three sources are expected to be reviewed, including the text. At the end of each paragraph, a source is cited in parentheses.
For example, (Scupin, 2008: Pages 245-249).
or (Henslin, 2011: Pages 100-105).
Then, the entire source is written at the end of the report.
For example, Scupin, Raymond. 2008. "Cultural Anthropology." 7th Edition. New York: Pearson.
or, Henslin, James. 2011. "Introduction to Sociology." 10th Edition. New York. Pearson.
4. Hypotheses
On the basis of the literature I have reviewed, I have formulated the following hypothesis (singular) or hypotheses (plural).

Local tennis column: Naples' Watson coming back to area as Gators open spring season this weekend
NAPLES - Who says homecoming festivities are only for football season?
The tennis courts at the Three Oaks Community Park's Barbara Manzo Tennis Center in San Carlos will be teeming with collegiate players today through Sunday. The Three Oaks Shootout, a four-team round-robin affair, will be headlined by the University of Florida Gators squad. That also means a "homecoming" appearance by former local junior standout Gordon Watson.
Watson is a redshirt freshman on the Gators squad, and he'll be playing both singles and doubles as the Gators open their spring season.
The Gators, who begin the season ranked 12th in the ITA Men's Team Rankings, will compete against players from No. 16 Illinois, N.C. State and Georgia Tech. Each player will play three singles matches and a minimum of three doubles matches. The event will begin each day at 10 a.m. with doubles action, followed by singles action.
Watson is to be one of seven Gators penciled in for action at Three Oaks. After an outstanding junior career, Watson enrolled at Florida in January of 2012 and redshirted. Last fall, he compiled a 9-4 record in tournament action, winning the singles title at the Bedford Cup in September.
"It's nice for Gordon to play close to home. His parents and friends are going to be able to watch him play and compete," Gators coach Bryan Shelton said on Wednesday. "That's always special when you get to play close to your hometown and have that opportunity to compete in front of your home crowd. Hopefully, he'll have some friends and family out there this weekend to support him and support the Gators."
The Shootout marks the final individual competition of the season until the NCAA Singles and Doubles Championships in May. The Gators will begin their dual match season Saturday, Jan. 19, hosting Miami at noon at Linder Stadium at Ring Tennis Complex.

Winter Wandering
Don't get snowed in. Take off for the southern section of the country and find nice weather and plenty to do, from wildlife watching to hiking to biking, and much more.
The Everglades Wilderness, nearly a million and a half acres of grassy wetlands, is chock full of things to do, as this shallow, 50-mile wide river makes its leisurely way to Florida Bay. The operative word is "leisurely," and this may just be the laziest wilderness river you'll ever experience. Paddling a canoe puts you right in the water with the local flora and fauna, and is the best way to experience the ecosystem's sawgrass prairies and mangrove swamps. Campgrounds in the Everglades are open year-round, and the National Park Service has constructed chickees, elevated camping platforms, for canoeists on the 99-mile Wilderness Waterway. Biking is permitted on the main park roads and on some trails of the Everglades Wilderness, but the Shark Valley Tram road provides the peak biking experience, especially during the mild winter months, when the temperatures stay mostly in the 70-80 degree F range. Experienced cyclists can bike on down to John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park on Key Largo via our Glades to Keys Bicycle Tour. If you crave the adrenaline rush of saltwater gamefishing, you'll head farther on down to the Keys. Winter is the peak season for sailfish in the deep water off the Keys, and you can get there by charter boat from Islamorada and Key West.
A drift of sandy islands south of Florida, Alabama, and Louisiana, the Gulf Islands extend for 150 miles parallel to the mainland, and are among the last undeveloped barrier islands on either the Atlantic or the Gulf coast. Wilderness camping is allowed any time of the year anywhere on East Ship Island and on the designated wilderness islands, Horn and Petit Bois. In winter, northerly winds make warm, wind-resistant clothing a necessity, but the summer crowds (and the pesky summer insects) are gone. Fourteen-mile-long Horn Island offers the best hiking, through varied terrain that includes tidal marshes and pine forests, and it provides an important nesting area for ospreys, skimmers, terns, and snowy plovers, and a wintering area for rafts of other waterfowl. The Gulf Islands National Seashore includes some more sheltered areas on the mainland and a number of historic forts, such as Fort Massachusetts on Ship Island and Fort Barrancas at the entrance to Pensacola Bay, for entertaining sidetrips.
Winter is a rewarding time to look for alligators while paddling the quiet bayous of Louisiana's Batararia Preserve, in the diverse Jean Lafitte National Historic Park. Alligators also find this a rewarding time—migratory ducks and other waterfowl are plentiful. Nine miles of these history-laden waterways are off limits to motorized boats—you'll see baldcypress and water tupelo, great blue herons and egrets, and prehistoric Native American shell middens and bayou wildlife of all kinds.
Texas can get pretty cold in its northernmost reaches, but camping, hiking, and fishing are year-round activities in Padre Island National Seashore, another Gulf barrier island. Hot and humid in the summer, it's much more temperate in winter. (Don't plan on swimming, but bring your suit, just in case.) This is one of the most biologically diverse of all the islands in the Gulf of Mexico, a good spot for viewing dolphins, rare sea turtles, and other marine wildlife. With 350 native bird species, the island also provides a winter home to sandhill cranes, and you may even see birds more commonly associated with Mexico, such as the green jay and the great kiskadee. You'll find abundant fishing: surf fishing for marlin and tarpon, fly and lure fishing, even fishing from sea kayak in the salty Lagune Madre. Winter days also mean considerably less beachcombing competition—look for shells and other treasures at low tide and after storms.

3/8/2015Love this app and have been using for a while. The news feed and live tile aren't working though. Trying to contact developer.
9/29/2014Nicely done, but the official app has more functionality AND is free. UPDATE turns out that wasn't an official app and it has since been pulled from the store, but it was good AND free.
7/27/2014Very helpful and detailed. Can't wait to use it again next year!
7/12/2014Disappointed. Could be better. Can't play videos. Does not have standings for all the different jersey competitions. Live feed is what I wanted it for and it is not very good coverage of what is going on on the stage.
7/11/2014Fantastic app. Definitely worth the buy
7/11/2014Wow, just superb. While I'd love to see the official app on WP just to have it, I don't miss it.
7/10/2014Quite a bit of good information on this app, but none that you can't find on a free app. Nice design, but even after contacting the developer, the transparent tile has a mind of its own. Consider that this app is really only useful three weeks of the year before you buy it.
7/7/2014The application is stunning beautiful and very useful. All usability issues were fixed.
7/7/2014Love it, functionality and nice graphic. But has problems with giving results of the stages
7/7/2014This is a nice tour app and the best of the bunch I've tested so far. I've never seen the live tile do anything live on my 1020, so it loses a star.

When a tragic vacation accident left an athletic teen paralyzed, many people assumed his dreams were over. But Brandon, a 30-year-old social worker at Intermountain Medical Center in Murray, is living the dream he always wanted to live ─ helping others.
"Quadriplegics are some of the strongest individuals you'll ever meet!" he said. "We have dreams, goals and aspirations just like anyone else: We just roll toward them, instead of walking toward them."
His super-positive attitude is hard to miss and impossible to dismiss. As the only quadriplegic social worker in the Neuro-Specialty Rehabilitation Unit at Intermountain Medical Center, Brandon brings a unique perspective to patients who suddenly find themselves paralyzed, depressed and confused.
"When I roll into the room of a patient who has just became quadriplegic, I gain instant respect and they feel instantly understood. That's why I love being a social worker in the rehab unit, because I've been there and that's why I'm here," he says.
Brandon was an 18 year old "nature boy," known for exploring canyons, tubing down rivers, and fly-fishing for the catch-of-the-day. While vacationing with his family and friends at Lake Powell, he decided to race his friends down a sand hill. He slipped and dove prematurely into shallow water. "My life changed within seconds and I found out then how much I took life for granted," he says. He broke his C-5, C-6 vertebrae and became a quadriplegic with barely any movement in his arms.
Physical therapy and occupational therapy were difficult and humbling for him. The arduous task of increasing mobility in his arms and hands, learning to use a voice-activated word processor, and just taking care of personal hygiene was a painfully slow process. "I learned really quick during my 75 days in rehab that the more fully I vested myself in therapies, the more I would get out of them," he said.
"I can't tell you how ecstatic I was when I could finally feed myself again," he adds. "You learn to treasure the smallest victories." After rehab, Brandon became a regular feature around the unit, as the unofficial morale officer for other patients, as well as their cheerleader. He attended college, earning a bachelor's degree in hospital health services administration and a master's degree in social work. After more than a decade of work and service, he landed his dream job in the unit that had become his second home.
"While my condition would be a perceived weakness in other jobs, it has become my greatest asset in this job," he says. "Besides, it's just a great place to work. Our team consistently ranks among the highest for patient satisfaction in the nation." Indeed, a 2008 JCAHO Survey, showed that Intermountain Medical Center averaged higher in every category for increasing patient functionality than the national average. However, numbers can only tell part of the story. The proof is in Brandon's interactions with his patients.
"It's huge. It's just huge to see someone in my shoes," says one patient about Brandon. "Every time I see Brandon, I have questions on the top of my mind. Wheelchair stuff, dealing with pressure sores, how to do little things, even how to go to the bathroom."
The rehabilitation team includes: case managers, physician specialists, psychologists, dieticians, occupational therapists, physical therapists, rehabilitation nurses, respiratory therapists, social workers, speech therapists, therapeutic recreation specialists, and support personnel.
"It's very much a team process," says Brandon. "I'm incredibly grateful to be on this team and to give back to others."

"Just Another Man"
He looks in the mirror every morning and night,
Does he see what I see, it would be nice if he might.
He sees a rude man as he stands there,
I see someone who needs someone to care.
He sees a mean man, because he has to be tough,
I see someone who deals with more than enough.
He sees how he tries not to cry and feels he has no heart,
I see someone who has to keep his feelings and work apart.
He sees a murderer because he shot someone last night,
I see someone who saved someone else from a fight.
He sees a failure because he did not arrive in time
I see someone who did his best and needs peace of mind.
He sees just another man as he enters the day,
I see a special man who does his best in every way.
For all the years, he has put on the uniform of blue,
He has never realized how much he protects me and you.
But, as he starts the day again, I just wish he could see,
What he really is and how much he means to you and me.

The Final Inspection
The warrior stood and faced God,
Which will always come to pass,
He hoped his shoes were shining,
Just as brightly as his brass.
"Step forward now, old warrior,
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To my church have you been true?"
The warrior squared his shoulders and
Said, "No, Lord, I guess I ain't,
'Cause those of us who carry guns
Can't always be saint.
"I've had to work most Sundays,
And at times my talk was tough,
And sometimes I've been violent,
'Cause the world is awfully rough.
"But, I never took a penny
That wasn't mine to keep.
Though I worked a lot of overtime
When the bills got just too steep,
"And I never passed a cry for help,
Though at times I shook with fear,
And sometimes, God forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.
"I know I don't deserve a place
Among the people here,
They never wanted me around
Except to calm their fears.
"If you've a place for me here, Lord,
It needn't be so grand. In life
I didn't expect nor need too much,
So if you don't, I'll understand."
There was a silence all around the throne,
Where the saints had often trod,
As the warrior stood quietly.
For the judgment of his God.
"Step forward now, my warrior,
You've born your burdens well,
Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in Hell."

First times (sa pagpapatuloy…)
Yun na nga…
I remember the first time na nagpa-cleaning ako. My gosh! My virgin cuticle was in fear and trauma. Akala ko lalabas ang esophagus ko sa big toe ko. Ang bilin ng mommy ko sa manicurista, "'Wag mo masyadong kalkalin, ha." Eh, na-excite yata sa kadaldalan ko si Ate at hinukay niya na parang merong swimming pool na itatayo sa gilid ng mga kuko ko.
I remember my very first show in Music Museum entitled KSP (Kendi Saka Philip). We chose the title because we were new and we wanted some attention. KSP was a tribute to all the dreamers and beginner.
I had a shoot in Malate. Ang tagal, todo! Wala naman akong ginagawa sa movie kung hindi maglakad at basain. No lines. Anyhow, I excused myself and went to The Library to kill time while waiting for my turn. Mamu Andrew de Real, the owner, and Philip Lazaro was there. That night, KSP was born.
I remember the first time I bought a car. It was a second-hand light green Mitsubishi L300, which I bought with my salary from the movies I did for Regal Films. In particular, it was from my first full-length movie where I was billed "introducing." Ang title ay The Secrets of Sarah Jane starring Gelli de Belen. By the way, she won best actress for that film. I'm so proud of her. Gelli and I started our sincere friendship from there.
Back to my L-300, grabe, sakit sa ulo! Ang hina ng aircon. Mas malakas pa ang utot ko. Never naman akong tinirik ng kotseng ito. Pero sa tirik ng araw, tirik din ang mata ko sa init. I paid 280k for that vehicle. Yes, I spent a lot for repair and maintenance of that van. That van served like a school bus to all my UP friends. It was also a bar, where all the beverages (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) were stored at the back in a cooler. There were also wine glasses and chips. So park anywhere ang drama namin.
After three years, I sold that car and bought a new one. I wanted to keep the van because so many memories went with it. I realized I have no use for the van and the memories won't be kept in the van naman. Memories were kept and remembered in my heart.
I remember my very first sweldo for a TV appearance, I treated my eldest sister, Ate Marissa, at Pizza Hut, SM city. Iyang SM City nga naman talaga. They really got it all for you. Just the two of us kasi 'pag dumami pa, hindi na kaya ng budget ko. I really wanted to share with her the fruits of my labor. Ah…eh…kulang pa nga yata pera ko, nag-abono pa yata si Ate. Hehehehe!
I remember the first time I was invited to an awards night. Todo!!! Baduy kaya ng gown ko kasi sumunod lang ako sa type ng Nanay ko. I was tasked to become one of the presentors. Sosyal! Ang category: Best Float. Vic Sotto received the award. 'Tapos piniktyuran ako ng mommy ko. Sa layo ng upuan nila, halos 'di mo na ako makilala. Actually, hindi mo talaga ako makikilala. Sayang yung make-up ko, walang close-up. (Sensya po at piniktyuran ko na lang ulit.
I remember my very first movie with Viva—Lovenotes. It was directed by Maryo J. Delos Reyes. Tita Mina Aragon wanted me to sign an exclusive contract after the premiere night. It never materialized because she passed away. It was also my first time to work with Donna Cruz. I remember, we slowly gelled together but eventually became real good friends.
I remember the first few times I got nominated—Best New TV Personality and Best New Actress for Movies for PMPC Star Awards. In both instances, I competed with Mikee Cojuangco. Hahahaha! She won both awards as well.
I remember the first time I had an encounter with Direk Wenn Deramas, and found out that he hates me with this kind of passion.
M.A.D. (Martin After Dark)
Call time: 8:00 am
Venue: ABS-CBN
Role: Darna/Wonder Woman
I was ready, all made up, and in costume, as per instruction of the P.A. Before 10:00 am, I was ready to fly. Lunch time: I asked if I can change into comfortable clothes because I was freezing cold. The P.A. refused and told me to be on stand-by because they would tape my segment soon.
This was also the first time I met Bong Bella, make-up and hairstylist of Martin Nievera. Bong and I became friends after this meeting.
To make a long story short, at around 2:00 am, the P.A. asked me to sign the attendance sheet for the talent fee. They decided to drop my segment. After enduring the cold, the discomfort, the endless waiting, pack up! I was mad. I pitied myself. Cut to, Direk Wenn, who was then an E.P. or executive Producer of M.A.D., saw my volcanic eruption acting. He wasn't informed about the real basis of my anger. There, he got pissed off banned me from all his shows.
Direk Andoy bridged the gap and smoothened the misunderstanding between Direk Wenn and I. The first time we met, "I said sorry, Direk Wenn," smiled back, and we danced at the floor of Studebaker's.
I remember the first time I drank beer. I hated the taste. Noon yun.
I remember my first communion. I was very excited to receive the Body of Christ and say "Amen." I was excited to join the line of people for communion.
I remember my first cat fight with girls. I was in grade 4 and pinag-aagawan namin kung sino ang best friend na totoo ni Mahinhin Domingo. I told Mahinhin that I was her best friend, but the fight ended without finding out who her real best friend was.
I remember my very first interview for a broadsheet. It was conducted by Ruel Mendoza. Opo, bata pa lang ako, writer na siya. I was very nervous that I prayed silently in my heart during the interview.
I remember my very first teleserye Mula sa Puso. I had so much fun taping that series. It never felt like work at all. We were one happy family. The friendship that started from Mula sa Puso had carried on till today. It was the only series where I really cried when it ended. After Mula sa Puso, I never cried again because I realized that shows will stop airing on TV, but friendships can continue forever.
I remember the first time I did a full serious production number for Eezy Dancing. Maribeth Bichara persuaded me. Hahahaha! Paano ko na-remember? I saw it on YouTube. Nakakaloka! Ang payat ko! At sa pagkaalala ko ayaw ko talaga sumayaw ngunit, datapwa't ako ay na-convince ni Nanay Bechay. Asus! With matching perseverance and charms of the VIP family, there you go.
Heto po ang link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQKbydwowFM&feature=related
I remember my first pictorial ever with a stylist. I had previous pictorials but without a stylist. The day before, the stylist Jennie Epperson called and asked me to bring black shoes. That's about it. Pictorial day came. She had all the clothes prepared for me, the lay-out, the look, the poses, the sequence of the shoot planned. Honestly, I was challenged because she made me do things I wasn't used to. Hindi ko alam kung paano ko babaliin yung katawan ko according to her direction. She made me do things for the first time. In fairness, I really felt like a real model.
I remember the first time I did Gloring was for the ABC5 gag show, Ispup. Tito Willie Nepomuceno and Jon Santos truly helped me a lot. I had to learn and watch a lot of her speeches. I was so scared yet excited. Today, I still do Gloring for corporate shows. After impersonating GMA, I got revved up to impersonate more personalities.
Here are some pahabol pictures from my last entry, "First Time."
With Da King, FPJ
Cast of Mixed Nuts
I remember the first time I owned a mobile phone. It took me three days to figure out the profile and category of my contacts. I categorized my contacts according to Family, Friends, Acquaintances, VIP, Work Related, and others. Each category had a different ringing tone. Exciting! That mobile phone actually made me contemplate about the people I know.
I remember the first time I returned to our community, Living Word Community, after my marriage fell apart, it really felt like home. I left the community for more than ten years. I was a backslider. When I came back, nobody questioned me, or judged me. They simply welcomed me with outpouring love and concern. Todo ako nahihiya. 'Di ko alam kung saan ako lulugar. I remember one of our members, Marlon, approached me and handed me the tambourine.
Oo nga pala, tambourine girl ako sa music ministry. Kaya nga po nag-aaral ako ng gitara at drums ngayon para tumaas ang instruments na hawak ko. Naks!
I remember the peace I felt after that prayer meeting. It was like being born again. First time talaga ang feeling.
I remember the first time, after so many years, I did a willing confession. Sarap! Binigay ko na lahat. Sinabi ko na ang lahat ng kasalanan ko. Pati yata mga future kasalanan ko sinabi ko na. Peace, pare! Steady, pare! Nakaka-adik ang feeling.
Oo nga pala, recently as in the other day, Gelli and I had our first Korean novela night. We both watched different Korean novelas in our potable DVD players. We had fun. We laughed. We exchanged intelligent and stupid opinions. It was something different.
First times, either bad or good, are very memorable. Sometimes, your firsts are the ones you really want to forget. Sometimes, you don't want a second time of it. Still, the first time is the best.
Doing your firsts is like making a step with growth at the end of the line. Doing something out of the usual is getting out of your comfort zones. That is growth.
Take time out to remember your firsts because it will give you a nice feeling. Meron bang sense yung sentence ko? Try to reminisce your firsts and you shall appreciate yourself more today.
It's never too late to do something new or do something for the first time. Hmmm…Gusto kong mag-bungee jumping, jump from a plane, dive, surf… I'm excited to do more firsts. No matter how old or young you are, it's never too late to do something you like for the first time.
Diabilita: Napanood ko na Bad Couple. Try ko yung iba.
Ping: Hindi pa po kami talaga kami gumagawa ng movie ni Ms. Sharon Cuneta. Of course, I would love to do one with her if given the opportunity. Si Sharon Cuneta kaya yun.
Blackdiamond018 and tarayquin: I have a new teleserye with ABS-CBN. I also have a show with GMA.
SaraSidle: Sana ito magustuhan mo.
Ciel: Napanood ko na po yung Princess Hours and Coffee Prince.=
Janelle81: Princess Hours, Coffee Prince, Devil Beside You, Spring Waltz, Romantic Princess, Why Why Love, Bad Love, among the few, na naalala ako at this very moment.
Pating: Darating ka ba? Hanep! Wala naman akong problema at okay na ako. Deadma na po.
Kaye1311: Naman. Ang gaan ng feeling.
Jezebel: Iyan naman ang pag-usapan natin sa susunod. Offhand. parang wala naman yata talaga ako nun. Read Busy Bee and you will know my schedule.
Manay: Thanks so much.
First Time
I had a guesting on GMA-7's Fullhaus sitcom, and I was so happy to see familiar faces from M-Zet TV. They are same people I used to work with during Mixed Nuts, a gag show of GMA-7 in the late 90's. Tama ba ako sa data? Deadma.
On the way to the set, I felt it was just like any ordinary taping. The minute I opened my car door and was greeted by the old manong taking care of the generator set, I had this sudden thump in my heart. Please don't get me wrong. Hindi ko po siya crush. As I was walking towards my dressing room, familiar and warm faces greeted me with sincerity. Hindi ko na sila iisahin-isahin kasi madami sila. Mula kay manang na nagluluto, utility, guard, driver, make-up artist, P.A., assistant ni Bossing, staff ng MZET, and si Bossing himself.
Ay…parang konti na lang inisa-isa ko na sila.
I suddenly remembered the first time I stepped inside MZET TV office. It was to audition for a new gag show. I was painting the set for a play in Guerrero Theater in UP Diliman when I received a message through my beeper that there's an audition at MZET TV office in Timog.
I ran to the audition wearing a loose faded blue Giordano shirt, jeans with paint splashes, Converse, backpack, and beaded cap. Yes, beaded cap that a good friend handed to me as a gift that day.
There was a long line of beautiful, all made-up, clean, and good-smelling girls—they were all auditioning as well. In the end, I was chosen. Gusto yata nila ng mababaho.
My first official regular TV show. Pilot taping took place on May 8. It was my birthday and nobody knew about it. The fact was in my heart I was expecting for a surprise. Just like the ones I watched on TV. Ha! The taping finished and I was surprised that nobody surprised me. Not their fault. Even if I wrote that info in the audition's application form.
Hahahaha! Mixed Nuts was a wonderful learning experience. I worked with the legends—Vic Sotto, Joey de Leon, Richie D' Horsie, Tito Val, and so forth. There were only 3 girls—me, Jenine Desiderio, who just succesfully came back from Ms. Saigon, and Ms. Ali Sotto.
I will never forget my firsts. The first times are the ones we usually go back to—are they okay? Are they right or wrong? Too risky? Do I have regrets simply because it's the first time?
I remember my first kiss, grade 7 ako. Landi ko ba? I was doing a play for ACT, Ateneo Children's Theater. Gosh! Children's theater…child ako nun. Nyek! Landi ko nga! Basta Atenean siya and we kissed while playing hide and seek.
I'm not sure kung siya ang first love ko kasi ang dami ng definition ng love at that time. Merong puppy love, crush, infatuation, in love with love, or baka naman peer pressure lang yun. Ewan! Hihihi. Siya din yata ang first love ko kasi no matter how I wanted to define it, it still fell under the category of love.
I remember the first time I made an appearance on Maricel Drama Presents. Mel Chionglo was the director and he was very nice. I was so excited because I wanted to meet Maricel Soriano. Why? Because "I am what I am." Anak ng tofu! Di ko siya makaka-eksena. Isa lang eksena ko sa sofa, hindi kami kinunan magkasama, after lunch pa ang call time niya. Sayang!
Second guesting ko. Hindi na ako expectorant.
Amazingly, she called my attention and told me that she was able to watch the sofa scene and complimented me on my performance. Di ko alam ang isasagot ko. Nautal ako. Hindi ko nga yata nalunok ang laway ko. Na-lock frame ang internal and external organs ko for awhile. Bait naman pala ni Taray Queen. Chinika ko na siya. Dami niyang lesson plan na binigay sa akin regarding the industry. Until now, ganun pa rin siya. Accommodating and sweet nanay-nanayan ko.
I remember the first time I met Malou Santos. Hindi ko alam na siya si Malou Santos. Tatanga-tanga din naman ako nun. Pero concerned ako sa kanya bilang pagod na pagod daw siya. Sabi ko sa kanya, absent muna siya at magpahinga. Hindi daw pwede. When I asked bakit kasi hindi pwede. Finally, dahan dahan ko naramdaman in the course of our conversation kung sino siya. I asked. She confirmed. Gusto kong mawala in thin air. Dyahe todo.
I remember my first play in UP. Non-living thing are role ko.
I remember the first time I met Sir Tony Mabesa. Feeling ko siya ang may-ari ng UP. Pero bilib na talaga ako sa kanya.
I remember the first time I met Floy Quintos. Sa Faculty Center studio sa UP. He just won a Palanca Award for the full-length play entitled Gironiere. Kasali ako sa play. Stocking lang ang damit ko. Tag-isang malaking dahon sa breast with matching vines na dala ko. Yun na!
I remember the first time ako sumali sa movie nung college ako. Nagdala lang ako ng medyas ni Harlene bautista sa set ng movie nila ni FPJ, Tapos pinakain ako ni FPJ. Niloko ko siya na isali niya ako bilang kaibigan ni Harlene. Sinali ako. Addict. Tumalon ng building. Patay.
Pero first time and only time ko makatanggap ng bonus sa buong buhay ko for a movie kay FPJ para sa movie na Dito sa Pitong Gatang. 500 pesos. Saya!
First time ko nakilala si Direk Jerry Sineneng, kinuha niya kaming talent sa UP for Shake, Rattle and Roll. My part had me recite some lines. Kaibigan ni Manilyn Reynes na makulit. Patay din. Kinain ng undin.
I remember the first time ako nag-drive hindi ako makausap, bawal ang sounds and basang basa ako sa pawis kahit todo naman ang aircon ko.
I remember the first time ko nagkaroon ng role na hindi mamatay is for the Dolzura Cortez Story. Si Vilma Santos ang kaeksena ko. Siya ang mamatay because of AIDS at ako ang nurse niya. Bago mag-take, nag-cut si Direk Laurice Guillen kasi kailangan meron daw surgical masks ang nurses assisting the AIDS patients. Bad trip. Hindi nakita ang iyak ko. Hindi ko nga nakilala ang sarili ko kung hindi ako naglagay ng clip na may kulay.
I remember the first time na magpa-cleaning ako ng paa…
(To be continued, haba na eh…)
First time ko hindi tatapusin ang blog na ito at abangan ninyo ang susunod. Haba na talaga and maiba naman. First time din ito.
First time ko rin ipagsasama ang sagot ko with the comments I got for my past 2 entries.
Kaye1311: Na-miss ko ring magsulat. Salamat sa paghihintay.
Potato_and_kumara: In the midst of my hectic schedule, I really find time to be with my son. Ngayon nga, while working on this blog, nasa bed ako beside Quentin. Masarap ang boxing. Go!
ShyShy: Saan ka naman nahilo?
Anoba: Natanggap ako sa first stage ng audition. I just hope the station approves of me as well.
Efiram: Nagsulat na ako about sa UP dati. Five comments lang yata ang nakuha ko. Ang lungkot!
Pugin: Pinanood ko yung Why Why Love as per your reco. Naku naman! Crush ko na talaga yung bidang lalaki. Crush namin siya ni Gelli. Yes, na-infect ko na si Gelli.
Bingo: Sige, next time Luneta or post office or any government office ang pag-uusapan natin. Thanks for your suggestion. I appreciate it very much.
Kikay228: Nope, I don't personally know Skinny Bitch. Tho' parang pinepersonal niya yata tayo. Oks lang.
Casi12: Thanks.
Lonely Richkid: Thanks talaga for the affirmation.
Maganda21: Thanks. I love
Dropdead: Thanks. I heard we are showing third season on April 14.
Tina_tinapay: Wala pa yung ibang title na sinuggest mo. Yung top three korean novelas mo, napanood ko na. Other movies, tapos ko na rin. Wala pang Brown, VS, 1%, and others. Kakainis nga, eh. Hahanapin ko iyan.
Dalagita: Regular na po ako sa Camera Café.
Chorva888: I haven't watched A Rosy Life. I don't like heavy dramas. Tiring!
Gossipmonger: Hahahahaha! di ko alam. Magkatrabaho lang yata. O, nga noh? Ewan ko. Ask ko.
Alriqqa_queen1: Heard about that bar. I was invited to do a show there hindi natuloy. Thanks for posting a comment.
Boy_alabama: Nakakatawa ka naman. Kung type mo ako mahalin, salamat.
Jerbie1022: Ay naman! Hindi na raket ang tawag ko ditto, work or hanapbuhay. Serious! But single parent or single, I really love my work. I'm so blessed that I'm rewarded to earn and do something I love to do.
Ryann: Mura lang ang sheesha, 'wag mo naman ipagkait na uwian ako ng isa. Babayaran ka naman. Huwag masama ang ugali. Hindi ako nakabili last time I was there. Ganda rin kaya yun para sa bahay. Patay lamok sa lanai.
Jezebel: Kailangan ko nga suggestion niyo.
Trannywidpussy: Na-discover ko rin 'yang site na iyan for updated telenovelas www.crunchyrole.com Pero gusto ko talaga ay isang upuan na panonood.
ShyShy: Sige na nga… hindi libre ang pagtoo-toothbrush. Masyado naman ikaw magbilang. Compared sa vacation, libre lang ang pag-toothbrush. Point taken. Salamat.
Fingertalk: Like ko your answer.
Usyusero: Sensya!@!@ Big sigh pala ang English ng buntong-hininga and hindi deep breath. 'Wag kang magalit sa pagkakamali ko, hindi ka naman nasaktan. Sungit mo naman ng slight. Sorry, pwede po ba?
Benignorexlester: Love it.
Coach: In fairness, Coach, marami ang mai-in love sa listahan mo.
Diabilita: Hahahaha! Sarap nga ng feeling maglinis ng tenga.
Melito: Sarap maglakad lakad sa maliwanag and safe na lugar. Wag sa mga agaw-buhay locations.
The best things in life are free
Yun ang totoo kong nararamdaman bago sumulat nito. Korekek!
Natatawa ako kasi hindi ko alam kung ano ang isusulat ko. Sa dami ng thoughts na nasa utak ko, hindi ako makapag-decide.
Then a realization recently hit me: Teka, the best things in life are free!
I stayed in Manila during Holy Week. Well, a first time for me. In other words, I did not spend a lot of money to relax and bond with my family. I did not spend that much for a vacation.
To get away from the busy setting of urban life could have been a great escape. But, I realized I didn't have to.
Well, I have the best things in life. Right here. All the time.
Here are my recent discoveries:
Masarap pala ang bumuntong-hininga.
Deep breath ang translation para sa mga Inglesera.
Masarap ito lalo na kung ikaw ay bored at napapatanga.
'Pag magulo ang paligid, ang sarap ng buntong-hininga.
'Pag may naalala kang nakakatawa, pang-ending ang buntong-hininga.
Masarap naman talaga ang tumawa.
Yung todo tawa hanggang sa maluha ka na.
Kahit walang nakakatawa, subukan mong gawing mag-isa.
'Wag ka lang obvious at baka sa 'yo, ang mga tao'y matawa.
At baka mapagkamalang nababaliw ka na.
'Wag ding pigilan ang pagtawa dahil mahihirapan ka.
Bumigay ka na, tutal may dulot naman na saya.
Hindi totoo na 'pag tawa ka ng tawa, mamaya iiyak ka.
Gano'n lang talaga ang life—pagkatapos ng iyak, mamaya tawa.
Kaya piliin ang tawa para buhay ay masaya.
O 'di ba, libre pa ang tumawa.
Ang sarap din pala magbanyo.
Kung ano man ang ginagawa mo sa inidoro,
aminin mo masarap ang feeling na ito.
'Pag pinigilan mo, sigurado kikilabutan kang todo.
At pag nakaraos ka na, winner ang feeling mo.
Ang sarap pala humikab.
Warning sign of the body that says sleep is a must-have
Merong sound at may kasamang sob.
Pigilin mo, lalo ka pang mahihikab.
At 'pag nag-give in ka, oh, what a nice feeling from above.
Sneeze or hatsing, oh what a feeling!
Sa sarap nito, minsan may kasama pang giling
'Pag di mo binigay ang iyong hatsing,
sakit ng ulo aabutin at ika'y mapapa-iling.
Sarap mag-toothbrush
Parang there's this sudden rush
Para kang tumakbo sa 100-meter dash
'Tapos confident ka, talk loud man or in a hush
Sarap matulog, or even just a nap,
Be it in a bed, or better, in a loved one's lap.
Clears the mind and refreshes the soul.
Paggising, you're rejuvenated as a whole.
Indeed, the best things in life are free.
Dahil sa mga realizations na ito, nag-attempt tuloy akong maging makata. Magustuhan niyo man o hindi, oks lang. Libre naman, eh, di ba.
Kayo? What do you guys have in your list?

Our company takes pride in producing pet foods that satisfy the primary health concerns of pet owners: delicious clean nutrition and protection for your pets from exposure to toxins and unhealthy ingredients. A healthy pet starts with healthy nutrition.
Main Points to Remember When Feeding Your Pet
Avoid pet foods that contain byproducts. Byproducts of animals may include secondary parts not intended for consumption such as rendered meat, chicken heads, feet, brains, and viscera. Instead choose a food that contains clean and wholesome ingredients.
Do not assume your pet should eat all the ingredients that people eat. "People food" such as grapes, chocolate, nuts, raisins, artificial sweeteners, onions and garlic are all TOXIC for your dog.
If the ingredient label on the food lists ingredients like by-products, chemicals, corn, soy, and other junk, avoid feeding it to your pet. Simple as that. You should be able to recognize most of the ingredients in your pet food as food!

Global warming to open new Arctic sea lanesmongabay.com
March 05, 2013
Optimal September navigation routes for ice-strengthened (red) and common open-water (blue) ships traveling between Rotterdam, The Netherlands and St. John's, Newfoundland in the years 2040-2059. Credit: Image courtesy Laurence C. Smith and Scott R. Stephenson. Click image to enlarge.
Using climate forecasts for 2040-2059, Laurence Smith and Scott Stephenson of UCLA assess future trans-Arctic shipping potential with rising global temperatures. They find that during summer months, when sea ice extent is at a minimum, some ships may be able to steer directly across parts of the North Pole.
"We're talking about a future in which open-water vessels will, at least during some years, be able to navigate unescorted through the Arctic, which at the moment is inconceivable," said Stephenson in a statement. Polar icebreakers could conceivably make "a straight shot" between the Pacific and Atlantic oceans over the pole.
"Nobody's ever talked about shipping over the top of the North Pole," added Smith. "This is an entirely unexpected possibility."
The researchers estimate that the route directly over the North Pole is 20 percent shorter than today's busiest Arctic shipping lane, the Northern Sea Route, which runs along the coast of Russia.
"For vessels traveling between Rotterdam in the Netherlands and Yokohama, Japan, the Northern Sea Route is already approximately 40 percent shorter than the traditional route through the Suez Canal," according to a press release from UCLA.
However the shipping window will only last a few months. "This will never be a year-round operation," said Smith.
The projections are based on the assumption that global carbon emissions continue to rise. Under one scenario, they used a 10 percent rise in emissions. In the other they assumed 25 percent. Both scenarios are relatively conservative — annual global emissions from fossil fuels have increased more than 10 percent over the past decade.
"No matter which carbon emission scenario is considered, by mid-century we will have passed a crucial tipping point — sufficiently thin sea ice — enabling moderately capable icebreakers to go where they please," explained Smith.
Melting ice will also open up the region to natural resource extraction, including minerals, oil, gas, and methane hydrates, as well as commercial fishing.
The increase in Arctic activity could have substantial implications beyond commerce however, including the potential for disputes between countries and safety and environmental risks, according to the researchers.
"While attractive to business, the lack of regulations poses safety, environmental and legal issues that have yet to be resolved," states the UCLA news release. "The prospect of open-water ships entering the Arctic Ocean in late summer heightens the urgency for comprehensive international regulations that provide adequate environmental protections, vessel safety standards and search-and-rescue capability."
The authors conclude that the opening of the Arctic passage may push the U.S. to ratify the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, a move that would potentially benefit its access to new sea lanes.

Album Notes and Credits
Notes & Personnel Info
|Liner Note Author: Lucy E. Cross.
|Harry Belafonte's influence on pop music is much more far-reaching than many realize. Born in Harlem, but spending a good part of his childhood in his mother's native Jamaica, Belafonte grew up straddling cultures and musical styles, and bridging perceived differences became his calling card as an entertainer. He was one of the first performers to bring worldbeat rhythms to the U.S. charts in the postwar era, and his silky-smooth mixture of jazz, folk, pop, and art song, often with impossibly infectious West Indies-styled accompaniment, coupled with his charismatic good looks and easy, hip coolness and sharp racial and political sense meant he was never reduced to being a mere commodity, even though he spent his whole career on major labels. Innovative, intelligent, and unceasingly creative, Belafonte's unique ability to find pop success with artful and socially committed material means he is long overdue for a critical reappraisal, and 2011 may well provide that with the release of his autobiography, My Song, co-written with Michael Shnayerson, and an HBO documentary on his life, Sing Your Song, directed by Susan Rostock and produced by Michael Cohl. This concise set, the soundtrack companion to that documentary, contains Belafonte's best-known and most essential tracks, including "Scarlet Ribbons (For Her Hair)," the ever enduring "Banana Boat Song (Day-O)," the gorgeous "Jamaica Farewell," "Matilda," "Jump in the Line," and "Turn the World Around." It shows a committed, consistent artist with an elegant and hopeful vision who always brought intelligence, passion, and grace to the table. ~ Steve Leggett

This needs to be said as the David Brooks media tries relentlessly to fill us with some sort of reverence for Simpson-Bowles.
Ryan has repeatedly attacked the President for not supporting it when he himself walked out on it and encouraged other Republicans not to support it. Ryan has suffered a lot of blowback on this. However, the media has come to regard this as the Holy Grail of Seriousness.
"Nate Silver gives Mitt Romney a 16 percent chance of winning, and gives Republicans a 22 percent chance of taking the Senate. A month is an eternity in politics, it ain't over until it's over, yada yada, but the main suspense right now is whether the Democrats can retake the House — I'm eagerly waiting for Nate's take."
Yes I wonder when he's going to get into that too. Others have already "gone there" and give the Dems a good chance to retake the House.
"And what this means is that in DC thoughts are turning to … Simpson Bowles.
You know what will happen if the expected result materializes and Obama is reelected: all the Very Serious People will clamor for him to return to the pursuit of a Grand Bargain, built around S-B."
"So, a public service reminder: Simpson-Bowles is terrible. It mucks around with taxes, but is obsessed with lowering marginal rates despite a complete absence of evidence that this is important. It offers nothing on Medicare that isn't already in the Affordable Care Act. And it raises the Social Security retirement age because life expectancy has risen — completely ignoring the fact that life expectancy has only gone up for the well-off and well-educated, while stagnating or even declining among the people who need the program most."
"Yes, I know, inside the Beltway Simpson and Bowles have become sacred figures. But the people doing that elevation are the same people who told us that Paul Ryan was the answer to our fiscal prayers."
Yes, let's table S-B permanently. With Krugman putting his name out there in favor of that let's hope this message gets traction.

When certain vintners speak, many others are listening. Bruce Neyers, who has owned the acclaimed Napa Valley based Neyers Vineyards (tucked into Conn Valley, in the eastern mountains surrounding the shimmering Lake Hennessey) since 1992, has recently been spreading the word to his legions of wine savvy followers, in every state from Hawai`i to New York: there is Zinfandel unlike any other being grown in Lodi's eastern hills. The 2011 Neyers Vista Luna Vineyard Lodi Zinfandel ($24) is, by all definitions of the varietal, a beaut. That is to say, not a beast. Its medium-full body has a very refined,.. VIEW MORE »

Neyers Vista Luna Zinfandel perfectly suits contemporary tastes
Lodi icon leaves legacy of uncompromised quality & character
Hundreds of related family, friends and colleagues gathered at Vinewood Community Church and Harney Lane Winery today to remember and celebrate the life of George Mettler (born March 14, 1943), who passed away this past February 15, 2013 (please see our September 2013 post, the patriarch of Harney Lane). In many ways, the Harney Lane Lodi Patriarch's Promise ($40) – a varietal blend sourced from grapes grown on the winery property, from four vintages (2007 through 2010) – is a direct reflection of the man, for whom home, love, laughter, family (and just below that, farming and fly fishing) loomed..

Estate Crush's gold medal winning wines signal shift towards restrained wines
Getting a gold medal at each January's San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition is a big deal because it has been involving over 5,500 wines submitted from more than 25 states; making this easily the largest single judging of American wines in the world. Also because the Bay Area wine professionals doing the judging are among the best in the world (also see our previous post, Smallest Lodi wineries earn biggest awards at San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competiton). All wine judgings, as it were, are direct reflections of the taste of the individuals doing the judging – no more, no less. .. VIEW MORE »
A Lodi Wine & Chocolate Weekend one couple will never forget…
Some 5,000 Lodi wine lovers flocked to Lodi Wine Country during this past February 9-10's Lodi Wine & Chocolate Weekend. Among those thousands was Carrie Fleming of Stockton, who was enjoying her third consecutive Lodi Wine & Chocolate Weekend. To Miss Fleming, the combination of Lodi wines, chocolates, and the company of her longtime boyfriend, Dustin Winkler, has always been so special, she has been making a collage each year: having a picture of the two of them taken in front of each winery, then making a map of the Lodi wine region with the photos marking the spot of..

Somms, truffles & epicurians: ZAP & Zinfandels have come a long way, baby
Another ZAP (Zinfandel Advocates & Producers) Grand Tasting has come and gone, this past February 2, 2013 in San Francisco. After 22 years, ZAP's annual Grand Tasting has morphed into an extremely civilized affair, which is now reflected in the wines themselves: partly because of relatively cooler temperatures of recent California harvests (2010 and 2011), and partly because of swelling consumer/media grumblings about Zinfandels being too high in alcohol and lacking balance or elegance. You may ask, since when is Zinfandel supposed to be "elegant?" The fact remains: many of the Zinfandels poured at ZAP last Saturday seemed more squarely.. VIEW MORE »
