Image from Taylor Kitsch Should Apologize to the Philippines
“John Carter” star Taylor Kitsch, in an interview in the “Late Show with David Letterman”, narrated his ordeal with an airport immigration officer.

Pinterest is a pinboard-styled social photo sharing website. The service allows users to create and manage theme-based image collections. Also, it’s one of the fastest growing social networking sites, even exceeding Google+ in terms of user visits and time on site.
So, with scores of other social networking sites on the Internet today, why should we be in Pinterest? The infographic below from GeeksRoom tells us all we need to know about the newest rising star in social media.
Lao Ban Soya Bean Curd
Every morning when I was still a kid I would always wait in our terrace for Mang Eddie, our suki magtataho (taho vendor) to pass by our house so I can buy my 2-peso worth of taho (soya bean curd). Once he arrives, he would immediately stop in front of our house and call me. After giving me my glass full of taho (with dagdag!), he would again ride his bike to serve other anticipating kids on our street, chanting “Tahoooo! Tahoooo!”
Our local Filipino taho is commonly sold hot and is served with arnibal (brown sugar syrup) and pearl sago (similar to pearl tapioca). My love for taho did not stop there, I continued to eat taho whenever an opportunity presents itself.
Here in Singapore, one hawker store sells a very different kind of soya bean curd. Lao Ban Soya Bean Curd is said to be the first store in Singapore to sell chilled soya bean curd, and the best tasting too as many would say.

EDSA in 1986: People Power or Putsch?
In 1986, an event transpired that most most of us have come to know as “People Power”. Some believed that this would bring about betterment in the lives and well-being for all Filipinos after the 21-year rule of former President Ferdinand Marcos. But did it?
26 years later, nothing changed, or should I say even changed for the worse. The Philippines is now in a much sorrier state than before, further left behind by it’s neighbors and the economy now relying heavily on OFW’s remittances.
