Omega-3 my ass. This is disappointing. After their exhaustive research on the Omega-3 essential fatty acids found in tuna which has been really used quite well for their marketing, I’ve found out here that it is not a good source of Omega-3. Why? The canning process is responsible. So, even if you eat Century Tuna everyday, it won’t be a guarantee that you will not suffer a heart attack. Of course, this still holds true even if you eat tuna that is not canned. Perfect example is that: eating tuna and kilos of sisig and other food that are rich in non-essential fatty acids. You’ll then feel that your nape hurts after the oily food overload.

Child stars do not remain to be child stars. They grow up. They’re not living in the imaginary world called Neverland where their utter cuteness remains forever where cuteness is not necessarily associated with the aesthetic design of their face. It could be something more like being on the lighter side of the industry called show business. However, there is a word in the dictionary called change, transition, and growth. But when we talk about rapid transformation, things get pretty controversial and shocking at the same time. My oh my, you’ll be surprised to learn that Camille Pratts is FHM’s cover girl for this month. I can still remember the Ang TV days and I just can’t help but reminisce every 430pm at any time of the week (except for Saturdays and Sundays). I cannot imagine Camille Pratts as an FHM cover girl. All I remember about her is the Esmyuskee’s and other jokes that I thought were funny before that seem to be spattered with corn all over it when I gained maturity on the idea of what’s really funny or not. Just imagine that there’s a bubble on the FHM cover saying, Esmyuskee or the famous 430 na, Ang TV na.

The Ang TV memories cannot still get out of my system yet. It’s like I’m not ready to digest the idea of Camille Pratts doing a sexy film anytime soon.

I got my newsletter from Autodesk and I was able to read about the Asia Pacific Design Competition. They’ve announced the winners for the regional level already. I browsed through this link since I was curious if someone from the Philippines is included. Congratulations to Denin So Sy of Denway Steel Works. He topped the Commercial BSD (Building Solutions Division) category for the ASEAN Region. He must have done the design with Autodesk Revit and then he may have rendered it using Viz Render as what I’ve seen from the image from the aforementioned link.

I’ve posted about this at Litratista and this recent press release from Konica Minolta should be really disturbing to those who are using their products. They have just announced their plans of their withdrawal from the camera and photo business. But current users of Konica Minolta will still get customer support since Konica Minolta will consign customer service operations. As for the service of cameras Sony will implement it. And this got me into thinking, customer support as in call center? And if it should be a call center, which one?

Can you ever imagine Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson playing as Johnny Bravo? Just take a look at this picture. The personality that The Rock has been portraying in his past films is way different from Johnny Bravo’s character. Johnny Bravo is so narcissistic and can you just imagine The Rock doing Johnny’s moves in impressing a woman? Well, yeah, he could do the moves in the WWF but it’s still different. Imagine him doing it in front of the ladies. I don’t know if I’ll laugh or I’ll throw up because of this.

I got this interesting news from the Sugarfree mailing list. A new show for a particular cable channel is in the works and it will go full blast this coming February. They are looking for music videos that are not shown in MYX or MTV. Even if it’s a “pito-pito” type of music video, they would accept it wholeheartedly unless that they don’t contain content that would endanger the life span of the show (read: MTRCB). Also, the music video should be all-original (band/artist and the song). Aside from the music videos, they are also looking for short films done by students.

Now this is something that I am looking forward to and that is something to deviate from the usual stuff seen on TV.

I’ve found this in the photostream of one of my contacts in Flickr. Although this is a collector’s item as claimed by some people in eBay, it’s really one of the bad things that you cannot imagine that would happen to the President of the Philippines. Just imagine your name was misspelled in a press release whilst your one of the big bosses there. Of course, on the next edition, an erratum and a public apology will be printed. In this case, it’s different. It’s a 100-peso bill. And the one who printed it cannot make a press release saying that the printed 100-peso bills with this serial so and so can still be used for transaction despite of the unintentional attempt of humiliating the President. They won’t be used in transaction but will be sought and kept by the collectors. They’ll do all their best to preserve the 100-peso bill so that it would not have any sort of damage. They could frame the controversial monetary bill and put it in their Priceless Hall of Fame.

I’ve seen from the Imago Mailing List that Aia de Leon (the vocalist of the band and guitarist as well) is taking up Capoeira lessons. You’ll notice it everytime they play Anino which is an upbeat track from their album Take Two. Capoeira is a form of martial arts that originated in Brazil. Capoiera is always played with music. It would not be Capoeira if there is no music since the tempo in the music sets the style of the game. Capoeira is not aimed in destroying the opponent. It’s something like more of showing off your skills.

To give you more idea of what’s Capoeira like, if you have played Tekken 3 and have used Eddie Gordo as the player (one of my favorites in Tekken), you might have noticed his moves involve a lot of acrobatic stunts (like breakdancing which evolved from Capoeira).
