At a time when beauty could be had by just a quick visit to a cosmetic surgeon, and at a period when almost everything aesthetic could be faked, it is refreshing to hear from an individual who is not only well-regarded for her genuine good looks but is also esteemed for giving honor to her country.
PEP (Philippine Entertainment Portal) was lucky enough to get in touch with former beauty queen and actress, Gloria "Bong" Dimayacyac who is now based in Los Angeles, California, USA.
The 1983 Mutya ng Pilipinas-Asia and Miss Asia Pacific Quest beauty was gracious enough to entertain PEP despite being away from the limelight for quite awhile.
It would be remembered that Bong was one of the beautiful faces that graced the boob tube and the big screen during the '80s.
She was one of the sexy model-housemates that made the wacky TV comedy Chicks to Chicks so popular, together with still-very-active Carmi Martin, Lorraine Schuck, and the late Maria Theresa Carlson.
Ms. Bong was also cast in movies opposite big stars like Fernando Poe, Jr. (1987's No Retreat, No Surrender...Si Kumander), Ramon Revilla, Sr. (1987's Hitman), Dolphy and Panchito (1985's Kalabog en Bosyo Strike Again), and Lito Lapid (1986's Kamagong).
"I was barely 18 when I won both Mutya [May 1983] and Miss Asia [July 1983]," related Bong. "In 1984, I was asked to join Chanel 13's Chicks to Chicks, which eventually became Chicka Chicka Chicks when we moved to ABS-CBN, and I stayed until I left in September 1988."
"Chicks to Chicks was the number 1 show at that time," she stressed, adding that it also raked in a lot of money. But more than that, it was the cast and crew that made the experience unforgettable.
"The late Ading Fernando was the director then," she informed. "He was such a wonderful, funny and warm person. Of course, Direk [Johnny] Manahan was just as awesome. The casts were wonderful, too. We all got very close and it was more like a weekly family reunion than it was a job. It was a lot of fun. I loved every minute of it. We all shared laughter and tears. If there is anything I miss to this day...it is the filming/taping of Chicka Chicka Chicks."
"I have been in touch with them [Chicks to Chicks cast] since I left the show. [In fact] Carmi, Nova [Villa], Lorraine, and myself had a reunion when [my family] came to visit the Philippines last June [2008]," she shared, adding that she also kept in touch with other colleagues. "I was able to get ahold of some beauty queens and models and kept in touch with them since June, including Joyce Ann Burton and Jane Brummitt."
It is smart to note that some of her contemporaries are still, in one way or the other, involved in the industry which she decided to leave in 1988. And this prompted PEP to ask if she harbored regrets for her decision to leave.
"None at all!" she denied. "Sure I miss showbiz, but would I like to return? Perhaps... especially if I would have the opportunity to work with the people I worked with in the past."
But there is no question that Bong had made the right decision when she left the limelight in 1988. "I left because I knew I was ready to move on to a more stable life, something more fulfilling!"
The former actress recalled, "The last movie I did was the Italian production film, Indio," she informed. "[It starred] Francesco Quinn, Marvin Hagler, and Brian Dennehy, and Leopoldo Salcedo, I think. They did a sequel to this film in 1990 and they called me here in LA to do it, but I had to decline as I was already pregnant with my second child that time. They asked Tetchie Agbayani instead [I think]."
At that point, there were more pressing roles for Bong to
From beauty queen to queen of the house. "I did not work full-time until about six years ago," Bong confessed, relating that she concentrated on being mom and wife previous to said six years. Of course it could be pointed out that being mom and wife are full-time jobs as well—if more demanding but gratifying nonetheless.

Many Irish immigrants found employment working on America's expanding transportation system.

New York City has life expectancy which is great elimination of the hole it's an increasing generate greater -- the nation as a whole.
There -- polls that show that people think them.
What we're doing is great if anything in many people who feel that was -- more to protect health so we think that this it's going to be very popular and ask.
As other things we've done which are often and just a controversial happened.
Welcome back to the -- on your host James -- Washington that was New York City health commissioner doctor Tom Farley explaining the Big Apple's new attempt under mayor Michael Bloomberg.
To band big sugary drinks citing mounting cost associated with obesity but Stefan Friedman spokesman for the New York City beverage association.
Responds and I quote the New York City health department's unhealthy obsession with attacking soft drinks is again pushing them over the top.
It's time he says for serious health professionals to move on.
And seek solutions that are actually going to curb obesity these zealots Friedman concludes of these proposed these zealous proposals just distract from hard work.
The needs to be done on this front so what about all this is this the nanny state for the 21 century in operation or is that -- responsible -- To address a growing public policy problem one perhaps with ramifications for the American global economy.
This is trending online and we want you to using your FaceBook and Twitter accounts to chat with us right below the screen.
Where you see me joining us from our Miami bureau is Neal Asbury.
Host of the radio program made in America and followers -- Twitter via Neal Asbury and from New York scene of the high calorie country -- Is doctor Howard Shapiro nutritionist and author of eat and beat diabetes with perfect weight lost my thanks to both.
-- we begin with you doctor in New York.
Why is this really necessary.
Most necessary because -- -- population that's the first thing and is necessary because obesity affects so many different diseases.
Look at diabetes for example diabetes is a number six killer in the United States -- some killer because we're -- be -- population.
If you get diabetes by the age of forty you run the risk of losing eleven of fourteen years of your life.
Children now children eleven and twelve years old are getting adult onset diabetes they're gonna lose more years of their life and this is the first generation.
That is expected to have a shorter -- spent in the previous generation so.
You know Mayor Bloomberg is not making.
Is -- -- -- government involved in this what do you basically doing is making us aware it was a press release to make us aware of how bad.
Large portions of drinks -- And I think it's okay just as important as some of the other issues and it doesn't really distract him from other issues.
Neal -- is there -- some proper role for the government in trying to curb the health care cost another public policy problems associated with obesity.
Well not in this sort of weigh in as you said in lead up to this segment this is the rise of the mini state and -- a big fan of Mayor Bloomberg.
And I just can't believe that he got involved in this -- not -- to government bureaucrats to -- -- -- What we should drink I mean it'll look probation is over I wish.
That everybody would be doing shots of wheat grass and drinking -- water but it's not up to the government to tell us to do that.
I had that there is other ways -- health education.
And by the -- the soft drink industry if it's something that's a good industry it's -- employees American people.
And look what they're only they're only saying that they can't drink go what -- -- 24 ounces so called soft drinks.
But how about other beverages like margaritas can we bring 24 ounce -- is -- margaritas.
And how about those -- that I love of the Carnegie deli I mean if we beat one of those every day we're gonna clog -- arteries so where does this stop.
It is just not the role of the government to be telling us we shouldn't drink these soft drinks there's other ways of public education and health education to -- -- children.
You know you'll thank you there -- David Larson chats to us that is overreach by the -- the next thing you -- see him doing is telling them there how to think.
Is it it doesn't he'll raise a good point doctor Shapiro doesn't -- and raise a good point in that.
There's lots of unhealthy things out there in society but the government can't be in the business of for closing all of them for us to have -- -- mean.
The government just as no I'm sorry and could go ahead they that this is a practical matter -- the government's not in the business of for closing anything it's not sort of impede the the soft drink industry this doesn't have any effect -- would sold in stores.
If he's not telling you that you can't buy solar Tracy's just limiting what you get in venues Blake in a stadium more in a theater.
These portions are gigantic there enormous the ridiculous.
And it does cause a health issue it is not stopping the amount of service of sold any store.
You don't buy a margaritas and drink them all day but we have children and we have families that are buying sodas and drink it in place of water all day long that's the problem.
We don't drink milk -- so they you don't have to address that and you can't address everything -- just one thing at a time.
Which is why.
When Mayor Bloomberg addressed the smoking in restaurants everybody was against it and now they're not against and it did help reduce the disease.
It's why we -- you mention that you should put.
Labels on on calories on foods that people respond to -- because they're educated all we're doing is trying to educate.
People I don't understand why -- -- -- afraid of it let me just show you what -- Very rarely win but this is the parent's role.
It's select the -- role is to is to raise their kids they don't let them know what's right and wrong is -- mayor Bloomberg's role to tell our children urgent is it isn't it about had it done.
No it's basically it's Mayor Bloomberg who wants to take on a challenge just like.
-- they've played legislatively it's just nice that's just like the president's wife.
To make of the adults aware because adults are not aware these children are not -- in fifteen years they're gonna have children and they're not aware and that's -- we have an obese population.
-- -- they generally let host your jump in actually of the host -- Can you read this teach shots I'm gonna sneak over to and Jake.
New Jersey to get my big -- Neill is -- not.
Is they're not -- found some valid reason for the government to see this as a public policy problem.
The more obese people we have the higher the health care cost.
The problems we have in the hospitals.
The administrative burden of it is and there's some role for the government to try to curb these sorts of problems.
But an and we have alcoholics as well and we have people he -- we too much suites and pastries.
But -- -- -- does -- stop that's what I wanna know where does it stop.
-- -- the government now outlaw all white bread I mean where does it stop I I would like the mayor didn't think this should have this is wrong and and to tell the parents.
That you need to educate your children and you shouldn't be buying these sorts of things.
But until legislated it to do -- in this sort of way it's just plainly wrong this is the rise of the -- they just across the river New Jersey in Fort -- two weeks ago the City Council.
Is outlawing walking intact sting and again that the rise of the nanny state we see that the city we see -- -- the state.
And we -- at the federal level if it is wrong.
Don't take away the role of the parent and that's what -- okay that Mayor Bloomberg is trying.
Do just let me say one thing you have to educate the parents let me show you one thing are you aware of how much sugar is in one of these -- This is the size of the drink that I used to have when I was a kid it's eight ounces.
This is the portion.
That is sold now and venues let me show you how much sugar.
And I am sure none of you were aware of this is and now we love props one a heads wondering how how about an -- they screen call and how much sugars or do we -- -- -- -- -- we have solid ice cream -- all day long but we drink.
Doctor Shapiro let me ask your question here Neal was very has just -- in essence these slippery slope argument.
You yourself have said call this part of a natural progression you've suggested that first Mayor Bloomberg tried to regulate -- with success.
Smoking in bars and now he's moved on to big sugary drinks.
What would you sir as someone who professes to be concerned about public health issues what would you next like to see.
Public authorities like mayors of big cities tackle but they haven't tackled yet we're talking about tobacco sugary drinks what should come next -- -- -- Well I you know I think the portion sizes should come next and we're not mandating that people should have small portions but look at what the portions -- in this country today first of all.
Families are are eating gigantic portions people come from your from look at this wouldn't they're appalled.
Secondly -- all the food has high in fat high in calories it's fast food both parents work.
There's lots of issues to to address.
But so you think that McDonald's and burger king and Wendy's and so forth.
Should properly be the subject of governmental -- of some -- not necessarily I think that we should talk about portions first I think we should show people.
That you don't have to have a gigantic portion look at the difference between a bottle of soda and what we're serving today and think about what we're gonna be serving in five or ten years from now people be drinking out of buckets like courses because to be a little ridiculous.
Things get bigger all the time we are getting bigger is a population all the time that health issues in this country or worse all the time and nobody nobody is mandating anything.
It's education it's making an awareness and apparently.
Every -- our area.
Neal -- we have about thirty seconds left and wanna get -- you.
What are you afraid it will come next you talk about the slippery slope.
What will come next what realistically speaking where do you think the people on the opposite side of the aisle from you on this issue are gonna target their efforts next.
We could come from anywhere and and it it it can really come from anywhere.
And actually I can't answer that question because I'm always amazed at the next thing that they come up -- I mean -- next that you know is there too much rather the big Mac can now you can only buy one per person.
I mean what it where does that go from here I mean pastry shops takes.
I -- many different industry all right if you don't do it in moderation I mean everybody must learn moderation and I understand that but it's not the government's role.
To dictated to us okay that -- it's -- it's a parent's role to educate.
Well we love moderation everywhere except in cable news and where we love to have a -- extreme views.
Thank you both very much for articulating for -- -- -- very -- have made in America on radio and doctor Howard Shapiro nutritionist and author.
Our beat and beat diabetes with perfect weight loss that's it for this edition of the foxhole we'll see you in two weeks Fridays at 4 PM eastern time right here live golf foxnews.com -- James Rosen Washington.

Not much one armed officer can do anyway if someone has an assault rifle and is suicidal. He or she could quickly mow down the officer and anyone else in their way. I think it just gives people a false sense of security and I don't want to pay for it. The thing to do is get rid of Assault rifles, not make this a Military state. Give you an example, I was watching that shocking video show and 2 ARMED cops pulled over these government separatist types. Father and son. The father and son jumped out of their vehicle with assault rifles and gunned down the hand gunned armed officers in a hail of bullets. One officer officer in a big school is a false sense of security. You got kids out on the play ground and on Buses at some point during the day. You can't have all these nut cases with high powered weapons and expect security. Keep in mind, somebody who does this type of thing probably is suicide and want to take as many people as they can with them. Make a big media splash on their way out. My opinion

Dingoes Go Visiting
6 May 2005
Dingoes are regarded as a feral pest in some parts of Australia, and one of the main reasons for this is due to the death of domestic stock such as sheep and cattle.Often it is actually crossbreds that are causing the problems, but that does not stop the purebreds getting the blame! Due to this, a lot of people are quite surprised when they see us walking our dingoes through the Kids Zoo. We do this both for training and enrichment.
The dingoes love all the new smells in the Kids Zoo, and enjoy saying hello to all the sheep, goats, calves and pigs. We sometimes allow the dingoes to approach the animals fences to say hi, but sometimes we ask them to walk through without stopping or trying to approach the animals, a very good test for the command 'leave'.
So if you see us walking our dingoes through the kids zoo, do not be alarmed, it is great enrichment for all involved!

Hey all, I recently bought a Hard Drive Modular Hard Drive Kit from Fujitsu. The description as advertised by the Manufacturer, "This modular Hard Drive Kit allows you to add a second hard drive to your computer using the modular bay. Use it as an additional storage option or backup drive. Before proceeding with assembly of the modular hard disk drive kit, you must first purchase an appropriate hard disk drive. Please Note: This kit can only be used with a Serial ATA (S-ATA) 2.5-inch drive with dimensions of: 100 mm x 70 mm x 9.5 mm (3.9" x 2.75" x 0.37"); it will not accommodate a Parallel ATA (P-ATA) drive." I installed a ADATA 256gb SSD Drive. It fit in perfectly. Started the laptop up, it was recognized in my BIOS, but not in Windows. Can't find it in device manager, disk management or anything. Installed the Driver from ADATA'S website as well. This is my first time adding hardware to a laptop. This laptop allows for a 2nd hard drive to be installed. It can be removed by simply pressing up on a tiny latch.
Best guess is the drive is not formated or the laptop is not is AHCI mode. SSD's will often not be recognized if AHCI is not enabled. Try this. Click on Start, search for "Partition" and click on the Create and Edit Partitions. If the drive does not show up there, check the BIOS to be sure AHCI is the drive mode. If it does show up in the partition manager, then just use it to formate the drive and restart.
Also, if its Windows XP or something old like that, and you change the mode to AHCI... you could find that Windows suddenly won't boot if the change also affects the boot drive. Windows Vista and Windows 7 have similar problems. Linux and other systems are unaffected by this issue, though Windows 8 could require a registry hack (I haven't played with that one yet) to work properly.
yeah i thought it was just unformatted but you don't see it in disk management. windows never popped up and noticed new hardware i take it? unfortunately that leaves AHCI as the most likely, though as geekoid says that's not always a simple fix. good luck.
Yeah I tried to partition the drive, but it is not showing up. It is already on ACHI in BIOS. Intel 7 ACHTI software was pre installed on this laptop. The laptop is clearly on, because it is semi-like warm like it usually is when it runs. Not sure what else I can do, call the manufacturer ? This laptop is the T732. It allows for the "express drive". A slot in the laptop that allows either an extra battery to be used, or a removable Hard drive kit which I have. I went on the driver website, and there was a driver "express cache" " Applicable to systems with m-SATA SSD."
I am not sure. It doesn't seem to be the SSD. I would recommend cloning and replacing the primary HDD with the SSD and then using the HDD as the secondary slot drive. I am not sure why it refuses to recognize the SSD. Clearly the laptop has some limitation there Fujitsu is not telling you about.
Interesting. So right now, its seen in the BIOS but not Windows and is known to work elsewhere. I'd try booting up into something else (such as Linux) to see if it can be seen there. Even something basic like the GPartEd (http://gparted.sourceforge.net/download.php) Live CD/USB would let me know if an OS can see the drive. It may even be once it is formatted and partitioned that Windows would suddenly realise it is there? If GPartEd can't see it, then I'd lean very much towards something with the laptop itself.

2 Years : From Dec 2011 to Dec 2013
In early European deals on Friday, the British pound rose against other major currencies amid eased concerns about global growth.
Bank of England policymaker Paul Fisher said that he is keeping an open mind on yet another round of quantitative easing, given the ongoing economic uncertainty. "At this moment in time I would have a completely open mind going into the next round as to whether we would want to do more QE or not," Fisher said in an interview to City A.M. published today.
In economic news, the U.K. economy contracted in the fourth quarter for the first time in a year, in line with previous estimate, second estimate released by the Office for National Statistics showed.
Gross domestic product dropped 0.2 percent sequentially in the fourth quarter, as initially estimated. Meanwhile, the third quarter growth was revised down to 0.5 percent from 0.6 percent.
The pound is now trading at a 2-day high of 1.5800 against the dollar, compared to yesterday's close of 1.5745. On the upside, 1.582 is seen as the next target level for the pound.
Against the Japanese yen, the pound is currently trading at a fresh 4-month high of 127.30. The next upside target level for the pound-yen pair is seen at 128.0. At yesterday's close, the pair was quoted at 125.98.
The pound that slipped to fresh multi-month lows of 0.8508 against the euro and 1.4181 against the franc at 2:40 am ET rebounded thereafter. At present, the pound is worth 0.8476 against the euro and 1.4234 against the franc. If the pound gains further, it may likely target 0.846 against the euro and 1.425 against the franc. The euro-pound and the pound-franc pairs were worth 0.8494 and 1.4196, respectively at Thursday's close.

Title: does not hold much
Date: Aug 01, 2012
I was disappointed with how small these boxes were. I expected them to be able to hold a little more. There were some favors, I just was not able to give out. Cute, but disappointed for what I wanted to use them for.

Roads around the courts were closed at around 9am on Wednesday while army bomb experts examined the suspect package bringing the morning rush hour traffic to a standstill.
Police said the package was genuine and was expected by a staff member at the law courts.
It's believed court staff were being "over vigilant" in light of recent letter bombs sent to high ranking public officials.
The alert has ended and all roads opened to traffic.
