Samsung's Alias2 (aka U740) ain't exactly the best looking device set to hit the Verizon product line up for 09, but at least it might be one of the more innovative ones. First, let's just remember that the Alias is a phone that features a dual hinge design that displayed the same keyboard regardless of which way the handset was opened. Complicated and cluttered are words that come to my mind.
Enter the Alias2. Utilizing some sort of dynamic keyboard, perhaps like the one we saw in the Panasonic P-01A (the keypad physically rolled over like a flight status board from the 90s) the Alias2 displays a QWERTY keyboard or keypad depending on how the phone is opened. Leakster says that the phone might use E-inks technology, but that sounds a bit over the top and would probably make the handset God awful expensive. My money is on a 'roll over' keypad.

Blik Re-Stik: Decals for Textured Walls
The Apartment Therapy community members are big fans of the online surface decal shop Blik and recently while I was checking out some of the new designs noticed that some of their decals now accommodate semi-textured walls!
In the past, those of us without perfectly flat walls weren't able to join in on the Blik fun but now with Re-Stik, the decals have been re-engineered to stick on various textured surfaces. In addition to this, they can now also be moved from wall to wall, a feature not previously available. My walls are semi-textured and I'm anxious to try the new Re-Stik capabilities. Tell us, have you used the Blik Re-Stik decals?

Butterflies are always uplifting ch'i. Well, almost always...I came across Damian Hirst's "Requiem, White Roses and Butterflies" today and it made me feel sad and funereal. Anyone else feel that way from this piece? (see here: http://painting.about.com/od/famouspainters/ig/famous-paintings/WallaceCollect-DHirst.htm)
Micki- So glad to hear you found Blik Re-Stik! The line has been around for a while. You can check out all of our Re-Stik designs here: http://www.whatisblik.com/shop/explore?moveable=24
I put some of the wall decals I got here -> http://www.designyourwall.com/store/wall-hugs-c-300.html on my textured walls and they worked very well!

Fed Gov. Powell: Too Big to Fail Reforms on Right Track
Much of the regulatory reform effort since the financial crisis has been aimed at ending the practice of rescuing large financial institutions with public funds, or ending "too big to fail," but it is too early to judge success or failure of the efforts, Federal Reserve Governor Jerome Powell said in a recent speech at the Institute of International Bankers Washington Conference.
"The too-big-to-fail reform project is massive in scope. In my view, it holds real promise," Powell said. "But the project will take years to complete. Success is not assured." He added that he believes the efforts by U.S. and global regulators to fight too big to fail are by and large on the right track and should be allowed to proceed before resorting to more drastic measures such as breaking up the largest banks.
Still, the governor added, more intrusive reforms may ultimately be necessary. At the least, it is important to debate them and understand those alternatives in case the current reform project fails, Powell noted.
Drawing on lessons of the early 1990s
Risk has grown with time
"My own view is that the framework of current reforms is promising, and should be given time to work," the Fed governor said. "In any case, too big to fail must end, even if more intrusive measures prove necessary in the end."

Marine resources group seeks volunteers
By Tara Nelson
The Whatcom County Marine Resources Committee will be coordinating a survey of clams along the shorelines of Birch Point on Saturday, June 7, and is looking for volunteers ready to dig holes in the sand, identify and count clams, and tuck them back in their beds.
Clam restoration subcommittee chair Gerald Larson said in many Whatcom County shoreline areas, native clams serve as indicator species, improving understanding of the health of shellfish, water quality impacts, and harvesting impacts. Volunteers are crucial to enhancement of shellfish and other marine resources.
"We need to work together to keep the clam beds productive for future generations," Larson said.
The Whatcom County marine resource committee is one of seven committees in the Northwest Straits region of Washington state that was created in 1998 by a federal initiative to protect and enhance the local marine environment.
The survey will take place from noon to 4:30 p.m., at Cottonwood Beach and the mouth of Terrell Creek. Subsequent clam surveys are scheduled for 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, June 21 at Semiahmoo and 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, August 2 at Birch Bay. Volunteers will be given a brief training session on how to conduct the survey and identify clams. Registration is required.
For more information, contact Atina Casas at Whatcom County Public Works at 360/676-6876. For more information about how to volunteer, go to the Clam Survey Volunteers section of the Action Items/Get Involved page at www.birchbayinfo.org

New Mac Pros
A new report says Apple's gunning for a fall release for its Mac Pro desktop overhaul, and that it may be closer to a beefy Mac Mini.
Apple Hardware Test suite not loading, along with other questions answered.
Ahead of the public release of Mac OS X 10.6.5, Apple has seeded Mac OS X 10.6.6 to developers. Apple has also announced that Xserve will no longer be available after January 31, 2011.
A promotion to draw Mac users back into the OS X fold after they'd switched to Windows would be a nice idea for creative pros -- but it's just a joke.
Readers ask about the feasibility of fixing a broken MacBook trackpad, and other Mac-related questions.
Mac users who have had Areca RAID controller cards installed in their Mac Pros have been experiencing problems with the computer after updating to Mac OS X 10.5.6.

We answer questions about Mountain Lion system requirements, the Thunderbolt Display, and more.
A petition on Facebook asking Apple for information on when -- or whether -- it'll be launching any new Mac Pro is starting to pick up momentum.

The computerized advising/degree progress support system, "On Course", evaluates course work taken against degree requirements to determine progress toward the completion of a degree. The "On Course" system provides an Analysis of Academic Progress (AAP) report -- Degree Audit, which is a comprehensive snapshot of the student's academic record evaluated against the requirement areas for a specific degree.
The purpose of "On Course" is to enhance advising by providing accurate and comprehensive information that can be used in consultation with an advisor to make programming decisions. All students are encouraged to contact their advisor for academic and career counseling. Many programs call for the selection of course work in consultation with an advisor. Additionally, an advisor will be able to anticipate problems and make adjustments to a program, when necessary.
It is important that students in the following undergraduate schools consult Albert to monitor their progress toward the academic program they wish to complete:
- College of Arts and Science
- Leonard N. Stern School of Business
- Gallatin School of Individualized Study
- Silver School of Social Work
Please visit Albert frequently to review your Analysis of Academic Progress (AAP) report -- Degree Audit. Contact your advisor immediately if you believe there are any errors or discrepancies in the analysis or if you need to request a waiver or substitution to satisfy your program.
IF YOU EXPECT TO GRADUATE THIS SEMESTER: Please remember to view your degree audit to ascertain that all academic requirements will be satisfied by the end of the term, so that you may graduate on time. Make sure that all Dean or Departmental waivers, exemptions or substitutions are submitted to the Office of the University Registrar no later than the close of the term or you will have to postpone your graduation one more semester.

In the video above, Mr. Iver (and his many awards) hints that "Good Vibrations" was the performance that Vernon and Co. skipped, which was both respectful and, after the fact, a good choice.

"I love cooking for my soul-mate husband Scott, our three grown boys and their families, and our wonderful neighbors," says Athena Pogue Nasmyth of Milwaukie, Oregon. "Just as important as feeding family, though, is feeding whomever feels the call to knock on our door."
"It's happened a few times. Older people maybe too proud to say they are down on their luck would ask for cans of food for the church. I understand that. I always keep a good pantry, so I'd say, 'Okay, wait just a minute,' and bring them a few things tucked in a grocery bag."
"It's been kind of tough since both my job and Scott's went overseas. Pantry raiding is a specialty in our house. It's great to use up the odds and ends and still come up with great meals, even some 'yowza' keeper recipes. There's always a silver lining."
"Although times are a little tough for Scott and me right now it's not nearly as tough as it is for so many others in both our own country and abroad. We remember that when we gather around our table with all our blessings. Our oldest son saw three Iraq tours in the Marines and our youngest two Iraq tours in the Army. Both are home safely, thankfully, thankfully."
"Our youngest is now stationed in Colorado and his two older brothers live here in Oregon. They are my heart sons--the boys have their own mom, but they are my boys, too. They are the children of my heart."
"On New Year's Eve it's just Scott and me. We like to go rent a movie and we cook all day, something easy in the oven. I love ham! You can buy an inexpensive cut of ham and it's a way to make a good family dinner and not spend a zillion dollars."
"That was a big part of the household I grew up in. Have a nice big dinner on Sunday like a roast chicken and eat off that for at least three days with nice little soups. Ham Noodles is one of our favorite leftover New Year's Ham recipes."
This is a great recipe to bring new life to leftover roasted chicken or turkey.
Combine all of the dressing ingredients and mix well. This tastes best when made a day ahead of time and then refrigerated. If you don't have time, at least make the dressing and refrigerate it while you prepare the rest of the salad.
In a large bowl, combine the chicken, apples and pecans and mix gently. Fold in the cranberries. Add the dressing and mix gently to combine. Cover and refrigerate for a few hours or overnight to let the flavors blend.

Santorum seeks to exploit Romney weakness as contraception issue roils GOP presidential race
SPOKANE, Wash. (AP) -- Seizing an opportunity to instill doubts about Mitt Romney's conservative credentials, Rick Santorum on Thursday said his presidential rival's gut reaction to a Senate measure that would have repealed mandatory health coverage for contraceptives shows the former Massachusetts governor is not conservative "at the core."
Romney opened himself to criticism the day before by telling a reporter that he opposed a Republican bill to block President Barack Obama's policy on contraceptive insurance coverage. Hours later, Romney reversed himself and said he had misunderstood the question.
But the damage was done. Santorum used the opening to score political points just five days before Super Tuesday's 10-state voting, suggesting that Romney was too moderate to defeat Obama in November.
"We aren't going to win with someone who doesn't excite the very people that we need to excite," Santorum said during a rally inside the New Life Assembly of God church. "We won 2010 not because we nominated moderates!"
The issue of contraceptive coverage resonates with conservative primary voters, but it also offers a contrast between each party's priorities that could have general election ramifications. While the issue roiled the Republican presidential contest, Obama railed against oil and gas company subsidies in New Hampshire.
Republicans fail to overturn Obama mandate for birth control coverage; tight vote in Senate
WASHINGTON (AP) -- In an election year battle mixing birth control, religion and politics, Democrats narrowly blocked an effort by Senate Republicans to overturn President Barack Obama's order that most employers or their insurers cover the cost of contraceptives.
The 51-48 vote on Thursday killed a measure that would have allowed employers and insurers to opt out of portions of the president's health care law they found morally objectionable. That would have included the law's requirement to cover the costs of birth control.
Sen. Olympia Snowe, who this week dropped her re-election bid and cited frustration with the polarized Congress, cast the lone Republican vote to block the measure. Two Democrats up for re-election and one who is retiring voted against Obama's requirement.
Majority Democrats said the legislation would have allowed employers and insurers to avoid virtually any medical treatment with the mere mention of a moral or religious objection.
"We have never had a conscience clause for insurance companies," said Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif. Insurers, she said, don't need an invitation to deny coverage for medical treatment. "A lot of them don't have any consciences. They'll take it."
Syrian rebels withdraw from besieged enclave in central city of Homs; Red Cross to get access
BEIRUT (AP) -- After a punishing, monthlong military siege, Syrian rebels made what they called a "tactical retreat" Thursday from a key district in Homs, saying they were running low on weapons and the humanitarian conditions were unbearable.
Within hours of the rebels' withdrawal, President Bashar Assad's regime granted permission for the International Committee of the Red Cross to enter the neighborhood of Baba Amr, which had become a symbol of the resistance.
Human rights workers have been appealing for access for weeks to deliver food, water and medicine, and to help evacuate the wounded from an area that has been sealed off and attacked by the government since early February.
The Red Cross and the Syrian Arab Red Crescent received a "green light" from the Syrian authorities to enter Baba Amr on Friday "to bring in much-needed assistance including food and medical aid, and to carry out evacuation operations," ICRC spokesman Hicham Hassan told The Associated Press in Geneva.
Also Thursday, Syria's main opposition group, the Syrian National Council, formed a military bureau to help organize the armed resistance and funnel weapons to rebels -- a sign of how deeply militarized the conflict has become over the past year.
Ohio man accused of raping and prostituting 10-year-old adopted boy; 2 other men jailed
TROY, Ohio (AP) -- A 10-year-old boy shook when asked about being prostituted to two other men by an adoptive father who regularly had sex with him, according to police, who said the boy was fearful of talking because he didn't want to be taken from his home or separated from his new siblings.
The adoptive father has been charged with raping three boys in his care and compelling prostitution by hiring the 10-year-old out for sex. He and two other men remained in jail Thursday on rape charges.
Federal and local law enforcement officials said they're widening the investigation into child sexual exploitation allegations against the father, who worked out of his home as an insurance claims adjuster. His name is being withheld by The Associated Press to protect the children's identities.
Troy police said they impounded the father's truck and seized four laptops from the home and a video camera and two wooden paddles from the master bedroom.
School officials said the man had recently withdrawn the three adopted children from school, saying he would home school them. A neighbor said he had no idea anything lurid might be going on in the home.
Arizona sheriff unveils results of his probe into Obama's birth, says forgery probable
PHOENIX (AP) -- America's self-proclaimed toughest sheriff finds himself entangled these days in his own thorny legal troubles: a federal grand jury probe over alleged abuse of power, Justice Department accusations of racial profiling and revelations that his department didn't adequately investigate hundreds of Arizona sex-crime cases.
Rather than seek cover, though, Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio is seeking to grab the spotlight in the same unorthodox fashion that has helped boost his career as a nationally known lawman.
Arpaio on Thursday unveiled preliminary results of an investigation, conducted by members of his volunteer cold-case posse, into the authenticity of President Barack Obama's birth certificate, a controversy that has been widely debunked but which remains alive in the eyes of some conservatives.
At a news conference, Arpaio said the probe revealed that there was probable cause to believe Obama's long-form birth certificate released by the White House in April is a computer-generated forgery. He also said the selective service card completed by Obama in 1980 in Hawaii also was most likely a forgery.
"We don't know who the perpetrators are of these documents," Arpaio said, although he said he doesn't think the president forged the documents.
Obama says his foreign policy successes take line of attack away from GOP rivals
NEW YORK (AP) -- Raking in campaign cash, President Barack Obama blitzed through Manhattan Thursday night, offering donors at ritzy fundraisers a vigorous defense of his foreign policy record, saying his administration's successes abroad would weaken one line of Republican attack in the presidential election.
"The other side traditionally seems to feel that the Democrats are somehow weak on defense. They're having a little trouble making that argument this year," Obama told supporters at a $35,800-a-person dinner.
From ending the war in Iraq to ordering the raid that killed al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden, the president said his approach to foreign policy was based on the belief that "there's no contradiction between being tough and strong and protecting the American people, but also abiding by those values that make America great."
Despite Obama's assertions, Republican presidential candidates have hardly backed away from criticizing his foreign policy record. GOP front-runner Mitt Romney has said Obama's foreign policy is based on saying "pretty please" to overseas foes. And former House Speaker Newt Gingrich repeatedly criticized Obama for apologizing to Afghan authorities for burned Qurans on a military base, saying the apology was "astonishing" and undeserved.
At a separate fundraiser earlier Thursday -- a $5,000-a-person reception -- Obama defended his commitment to Israel's security, particularly amid the turbulence in the Middle East and North Africa, where some long-time leaders having been pushed from power over the past year.
Philly police: 'Black Madam' who gave buttocks injections may be linked to tourist death
PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- A woman who calls herself the "Black Madam" could face charges in the death of a London tourist who received illegal buttocks-enhancement injections last year in a Philadelphia hotel, police said Thursday.
Padge Victoria Windslowe, 42, was arrested Wednesday night as she prepared to host a "pumping party" where she was to illegally inject clients, according to police. She faces charges including aggravated assault and deceptive practices after one of her clients, an exotic dancer, suffered serious lung problems after an injection, Philadelphia police Lt. John Walker said. Windslowe was arraigned Thursday and was being held on $10 million bail, prosecutors said.
Windslowe is a "person of interest" in the death of the 20-year-old London woman who last year received injections at a hotel near Philadelphia International Airport, Walker said.
He said she will likely be charged with murder in that case if the medical examiner rules Windslowe's injection caused the death of Claudia Aderotimi, who complained of chest pain and difficulty breathing following the procedure. No charges have been filed.
"We knew she was the injector back in the 2011 (Aderotimi) case," Walker said, adding that the investigation has lingered as police awaited a ruling on the cause of Aderotimi's death.
Questions loom as reviews site Yelp prices IPO at $15 a share, above expected range
Yelp's popular online reviews guide the hungry to the best restaurants, the thirsty to the friendliest bars and the flabby to the toughest personal trainers. But, on the eve of its initial public offering, the eight-year-old, still unprofitable company has yet to convince analysts of its long-term prospects.
San Francisco-based Yelp Inc. late Thursday priced its initial public offering of stock at $15 a share. That's above its expected range of $12 and $14 per share. Yelp is selling 7.1 million shares, while its charitable foundation will sell 50,000. Investment bankers also have an option sell another 1.07 million shares, depending on investor demand.
The offering could raise as much as $123 million before expenses. It values Yelp at $900 million.
That's a lot for a company that hasn't turned a profit since its 2004 founding. Rick Summer, an analyst at Morningstar, says that while Yelp is at "the head of the pack" compared to other review sites, he's concerned that businesses "may not see enough value in (Yelp's) advertising platform to increase spending and justify the expected price of this IPO."
Though it's best known for restaurant reviews, Yelp's users have reviewed churches, strip clubs, hospitals, hotels and high schools. The company makes money from advertising. Most of the ads come from the local businesses that its users review. In 2011, it booked revenue of $83.3 million, up 74 percent from 2010. It had a net income loss of $16.7 million last year and $9.6 million the year before.
Police: Suspicious package found at Rush Limbaugh's Fla. home is not dangerous or hazardous
PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) -- Authorities say a suspicious package sent to Rush Limbaugh's South Florida home was not dangerous or hazardous.
Instead, police say the item investigated Thursday turned out to be an electronic plaque sent by a listener of the radio talk show host's program as a "business opportunity" for him. It concerned the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln by John Wilkes Booth.
A Palm Beach police spokesman said during a news conference the package was delivered late Thursday afternoon. When it was screened by an X-ray device, staff members saw what appeared to be wires and called police. The Palm Beach Post (http://bit.ly/yUyoguhttp://bit.ly/yUyogu ) reports that a sheriff's office bomb squad went to the home to investigate the package.
The sender apologized when investigators contacted him.
Red Sox C Jason Varitek retires, says hardest thing to do is to walk away from teammates
FORT MYERS, Fla. (AP) -- Jason Varitek spent 15 seasons as the stoic center of the Boston Red Sox, with an icy stare that never blinked and an iron jaw that never quivered.
The toughness and tenacity that defined his career and galvanized the Red Sox back to the top of the baseball world finally gave way on Thursday night, when the Captain bid farewell.
With his wife and three daughters by his side, and his parents and dozens of teammates watching from just a few feet away, an emotional Varitek officially announced his retirement.
"My teammates," Varitek said, his voice shaking and his eyes welling, are "what I'm going to miss most. The hardest thing to do is to walk away from your teammates and what they've meant to you over the years."
If Dustin Pedroia is the heart of the Red Sox and David Ortiz is the soul, Varitek was the steel spine that held everything together.

Product Information Menu
Phosphatidylserine is required for normal cellular structure and function. Brain tissues are especially rich in phosphatidylserine (PS), but aging causes a decline in the PS content of cells throughout the body. Research has shown that in addition to improving neural function, PS enhances energy metabolism in all cells, memory, concentration, learning and word choice. In the brain, PS helps maintain cell membrane integrity and youthful synaptic plasticity.170-178 Studies suggest supplementation of phosphatidylserine significantly modulates cortisol levels, resulting in a more relaxed state.179,180
Phosphatidylserine helps the brain use its fuel efficiently. By boosting glucose metabolism and stimulating production of acetylcholine, supplemental phosphatidylserine has been shown to improve the condition of patients experiencing age-associated memory impairment or cognitive decline.33-36 Thus, replacing this brain food is essential.

About Me First Time User, Fit Grandma, Health Conscious
Comments about Life Extension PS (Phosphatidylserine) Caps, 100 mg 100 vegetarian capsules:
This product is great for memory recall, stops inflammation in the body, thereby reducing the cortisol particularly belly fat which every woman cares about. My memory is much better, and the sciatic got better. It was recommended by my nutritionist. Because it relaxes me, I sleep better. I've had to increase to 3 at night after using for 5 months instead of 2.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

About Me Health Conscious
I started using this product while still doing office work, because I was having trouble remembering and making quick mental associations. My M.D. suggested adding 300 mg daily of PS, which is a neurotransmitter. It made a tremendous difference! I still use it, now adding L-acetyl carnitine (another neurotransmitter) due to advancing age. I want to keep my mind for a long time!

Since it was founded in 1892, Abercrombie & Fitch has continuously evolved. In the early days, the company took its inspiration from the great outdoors, crafting durable expedition equipment and apparel for the rugged outdoorsman. Almost a hundred years later, in the late '70s and early '80s, A&F stores began making camp in several major U.S. cities. In 1988, purchased by fashion monolith The Limited, Abercrombie and Fitch took a bold new direction. New designers reshaped and rebranded the company's image, shifting focus toward creating garments with an all-American, on-trend aesthetic. Today, Abercrombie & Fitch operates at hundreds of locations throughout the country and internationally.
Abercrombie & Fitch has certainly branched out over the last century, transforming from a sporting-goods company into a fashion powerhouse catering to the tastes of the young and stylish. The company's trendy, youthful image is cemented by its advertising, which consists largely of provocative black-and-white imagery featuring slim, muscular models posing on sandy beaches or grassy fields. Don't be surprised if you come face-to-face with one of these models someday—when they're not posing for the camera, each of the models actually works at an Abercrombie & Fitch shop.

Phil Younghusband is Eliminated from Celebrity Duets
Piolo Pascual and Angel Locsin are Considered Legally Adoptive Children of Bukidnon
According to the official website of ABS-CBN, Piolo, Angel, and Direk Rory Quintos are legally adopted children of the first class municipality located in the northeastern part of Bukidnon. The adoption ceremony involved a bonfire, native costumes, and chants performed by the datus or royalty of Bukidnon.
They have recently finished taping for the Star Cinema movie tentatively titled The Land Down Under. The action flick, which features cowboys in Northern Mindanao, will also highlight cowboys from Australia, hence the title of the movie.
Piolo is very enthusiastic about this movie, which he describes as: "a love story and you will see a lot of backdrop na mga bundok at may outback pa ng Australia."
Angel is equally grateful for being given this chance to work on her first movie with Star Cinema. "Masaya ako na pinagkatiwalaan ako ng ganitong proyekto. Masaya kaming lahat sa Bukidnon."
After shooting their scenes in Mindanao, Angel and Piolo are to proceed to Darwin, Australia to continue filming their first movie together, which is slated to open in cinemas nationwide this November.
"100," "Andong" Win Awards in the 13th Pusan International Film Festival
Directed by Chris Martinez, the Cinemalaya full-length film 100 stars Mylene Dizon, Eugene Domingo, and Tessie Tomas. The award comes with a cash prize of $20,000 that is sponsored by Korea's KNN TV network. Eugene and Tessie joined Direk Chris in attending the film festival that took place in Pusan (also known as Busan), South Korea.
Andong director Milo Tolentino was cited by the PIFF for "excavating a truthful story from the midst of the city dumpsite and told it with witty humor and brilliant performance." The Sonje award comes with a cash prize of $10,000. Direk Milo's short film is about a six-year-old boy named Andong who is obsessed with P20.
The nine-day Pusan IFF screened 315 movies from 60 countries, with 85 world premieres and 95 Asian premieres. Fourteen films, including the film 100, competed in the New Currents section. The jury was headed by French actress Anna Karina, who is best known for her work with director/husband Jean-Luc Godard.

Survivor Philippines Update: Vevherly Gador is the Sixth Person to Leave Survivor Philippines
Even before the Tribal Council, Vevherly already knew that she would be the one to go home because of the "alliance" among her tribemates. She vented her disappointment with tribemate Kaye Alipio and told her that she felt betrayed.
Vevherly also suffered an injury during the last Immunity Challenge, but she refused her tribemates' offer to look at her wound.
After the Immunity Challenge, host Paolo Bediones revealed the "twist" that he announced before the challenge. The Naak tribe, who lost in the challenge, would have to leave their camp and find another one where they will build a new shelter.
Naak member Kiko Rustia was kidnapped by the Jarakay tribe as a consequence of losing the last Reward Challenge. He was also not allowed to participate in the Immunity Challenge and help his tribemates.
Before going back to his tribe, Kiko thanked the Jarakay tribe and settled his differences with Jace Flores and Marlon Carmen whom he had issues before. He returned to the Naak tribe just in time for the Tribal Council. But he was not able to vote and he cannot be voted off.
During the Tribal Council, Paolo announced another "twist." At that point, the Jarakay tribe joined the Tribal Council to observe Naak's Tribal Council.
Paolo asked the Naak tribemates who among the Jarakay members are the strongest and the one they want to be chained with.
Vevherly received all the votes from her tribemates while she voted Rob.
In her exit interview, Vevherly asked the remaining Naak tribemates not to bring their game to the real world.
Vevherly has now joined other Survivor Philippines castoff: Chev Macias, Emerson Diño, Gigit Sulit, and Patani Daño. Niña Ortiz was forced to leave the game before the last Immunity Challenge because of her fractured toe.

"I hope that you will enjoy the album as much as I enjoyed recording it," says Sitti.
Rico Blanco Launches Solo Album "Your Universe"
The former frontman of the 15-year-old Pinoy rock band Rivermaya launches his new solo album "Your Universe" distributed by Warner Music Philippines.
Since he's now a solo artist, after leaving his band last year, Rico collaborated with different musicians to complete the album, which was something he wanted to do for years.
Track 1 (Say Forever) has Eraserheads / The Dawn's Buddy Zabala on bass, Join The Club's Paolo Santiago on percs and Sitti Navarro's Archie Lacorte on sax. Rico handled synths and guitar duties. This song sounded so 80's / Prince / Queen — perhaps the synths and vocals characterized it.
Your Universe, the second track, has Bamboo's Nathan Azarcon playing bass, Arch1pelago / Pupil's Wendell Garcia on drums and the strings segment was played by violinist Denise Huang, Rachelle Alcances, Ma. Christina Pasamba and cellist Ed Pasamba. This sorta reminds me of Snow Patrol. But heck, I'd say despite of its simplicity, this song really shines above the rest.
Yugto, 3rd track and 1st Tagalog song in this album. Rommel dela Cruz (Barbie's Cradle) and Louie Talan (Kapatid / Razorback) played bass, Hardware Syndrome's Boyet Aquino and Joseph Concepcion played drums, Radioactive Sago Project's Wowie Anzano and Pards Tupas played horns. Guitars and synths were played by Rico, as usual. This is the kind that we need right now. It's very uplifting and inspirational. And I think the mixture of rock and classical parts is the "in thing" right now, see: Coldplay's Violet Hill and Viva La Vida.
Ayuz ang fourth track, Mojofly / Wink's JunJun Regalado (drums), Rommel dela Cruz (bass), Rico Blanco (guitars), SinoSikat?'s Nick Azarcon (jam guitars), Archie Lacorte, Precious dela Cruz, Gilbert Francisco, Lowel Lalic of Brass Monkeys (horns). Ayuz is a straightforward blend of Pinoy wit and pop.
Track no. 5 is Helpless, JunJun Regalado on drums and Rico on bass, guitars, synths and additional drums. Perhaps this is an example of what others call "easy sound." Because it's easy to play during live and easy to listen to and I'm sure most listeners will find this very easy on the ears.
Since this is Blanco's first solo album, track 6 is Start Again. It makes sense IMHO: new music, bagong yugto, new career and new (and hopefully better) outlook. Neocolours' Jack Rufo co-arranged this song.
OuttaThis is the 7th track and there's nothing truly special to it compared to Yugto or Ayuz. But its minimalist approach is the kicker here, with Rico playing all parts; this is best suit for chillax moments. ;)
On 8th is Para Hindi Ka Mawala, which is an acoustic and taglish song. Possibly, this is Lagim's open letter to us fans and listeners. I find this song similar to Apo Hiking Society, feel and music-wise.
"Kung ayaw may dahilan, kung gusto palaging merong paraan" Rico Blanco played guitar, bass, drums and piano for Antukin, the ninth track. When you listen to it, makes you think, is 90's OPM rock back?
The 10th and last cut in this super album is Metropolis. Here's another of those laid back slash emotional songs from Blanco. Thing I noticed is, he really likes synths.
Indie Film "100" Have Sold-out Screenings in South Korea
The nine-day Pusan IFF will showcase 317 films from 60 countries. Of these, 133 are world, international or Asian premieres.
100 tells the story of a woman (played by Mylene Dizon) who aims to fulfill all her goals in life in a span of three months because she is dying of cancer. Eugene plays her best friend who helps her cross tasks off her checklist as the end nears. Theater actress-comedienne Tessie Tomas is cast as Mylene's mother in the digital film. Mylene was supposed to attend the Pusan IFF but she did not push through when she learned that she was already pregnant with her second child.
Eugene Domingo and Direk Chris Martinez are currently in South Korea to attend the event. According to Direk Chris:
"We just had our international premiere here at the 2008 Pusan International Film Festival. We are competing against 13 other Asian films in the New Currents section. It is the only competition section here in the biggest film festival in Asia. 100 is the only Filipino film in competition.
"Both our screenings were sold out even before the festival has started. We had our first showing this afternoon [October 4] at 1:30 pm. Eugene Domingo, star of GMA-7's telenovela Ako si Kim Samsoon, was a big hit with the Korean audience and press. They all loved the film--laughter and sobs were heard during the entire screening. It was an exhilarating experience for me, Eugene and producer Marlon Rivera--our first international festival was an unforgettable experience."
In Cinemalaya 2008, the full-length film 100 earned the Audience Award, the Best Actress for Mylene Dizon, Best Director and Best Screenplay Awards for Direk Chris, and the Best Supporting Actress Award for Eugene.
Sam Milby Turns Bad Boy in "Cul de Sac"
Written and directed by Juan Miguel Sevilla, Cul de Sac will have its premiere on November 15 and the regular run will take place in all SM cinemas starting November 19.
"My character is a bad boy talaga," says Sam during his Rockoustic press conference held at ABS-CBN last October 7. "He did some things in his past and he wants to redeem himself."
When Sam's character becomes a witness to a murder, he is thrown into an obsessive urge to solve it. His life becomes even more complicated when a menacing tall man stalks his every move and he encounters a mysterious lounge singer (played by Chin-Chin) who might be able to provide answers to his questions.
As he gets closer and closer to the truth, however, he finds himself right back where he started: the past he so desperately wants to escape.
Viewers are given fair warning: "what you see is not always what you get."
Paolo Bediones Denies Rumor About Survivor Philippines' First Pinoy Sole Survivor
Paolo explained that it is impossible to identify the winner because only the program manager knows the final result. The contestants who comprised the Jury cast their final votes before they left Koh Tarutao (the setting of Survivor Philippines) last September. Everything will be revealed, live, on the last airing of Survivor Philipines on GMA Network.
Nevertheless, Paolo is thanking those who are trying to ruin their show, "But thanks to them, people are now more curious about the show," said the TV host.

Jay-R Goes Back to Acting as Pato in GMA-7's "Lalola"
The 27-year-old singer excitedly talked about his character, Pato, in the new comedy series.
"Ang tagal na rin since I got into a teleserye, e," said Jay-R. "You know, we're always busy and we're looking for the right part naman. Pero ito naman is a really good part, e."
For this role, Jay-R said he attended some acting workshops. He said, "Actually, maraming preparation this time, e. We did a lot of workshops for drama, for comedy. Okey siya, e. I've never been in a workshop before, pero sa Lalola required talaga, e. So, it was kinda a nice, first time ko."
Jay-R was first seen acting in the movie So Happy Together (2004). It was followed by several TV appearances in shows like Love to Love (2004) and Encantadia (2006). He also appeared in two Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) entries, Exodus (2005) and Desperadas (2008). Lastly, he will still be part of the sequel of Desperadas in this year's MMFF.
Alessandra's Future Husband: "Mayaman, Mabait, Gwapo, Matangkad, Hindi Babaero."
After her controversial relationships with four showbiz boyfriends—including Jeremy Marquez, Oyo Boy Sotto, Polo Ravales, and Biboy Ramirez—the guileless actress admittedly knows that she's better off without the stress of her history with them. "Pero in fairness hindi naman ako na-trauma. Naiintindihan ko na part lang yun ng aking paglaki. Kailangan kong pagdaanan as a person. Although hindi siya nakatulong sa pagiging aktres ko," she naughtily quips. Though she's not the type who closes her doors after a break-up, she further claims that reconciling with any of them has never crossed her mind.
Despite her painful heartbreaks though, Alessandra eagerly says that she is ready to get married if it's with the right man. "Yes anytime, kahit bukas basta tama siya ah. Hindi naman pwede yung may dumating lang na kung sino tapos kasal na agad," she exclaims. But it's quite impossible as she is looking for perfection in a guy. "Pinagpre-pray ko siya aloud. Sabi ko dapat mayaman, mabait, gwapo, matangkad, hindi babaero…Tapos tinatanong ako ng mga kaibigan ko, paano kung wala yung mayaman tapos nandun lahat?' Sabi ko, okay lang. Paano kung mayaman pero 'di gwapo? Huwag naman. Kailangan gwapo," she beams.
Polo Ravales and Joseph Bitangcol as Gay Lovers in Joel Lamangan's Walang Kawala
"Walang Kawala" features Polo Ravales and Joseph Bitangcol playing the most daring role in their career so far. Produced by Manny Valera under DMV Entertainment, Inc. with screenplay by Eric Ramos.
Also starring in Walang Kawala are Jean Garcia and Emilio Garcia. Introducing in the movie are newbies Althea Vega and Marco Morales.
Synopsis: , Joaquin (Polo Ravales)an unassuming fisherman, is forced to confront his homosexuality when his sex-starved wife Cynthia (Althea Vega) returns from her overseas job eager to get pregnant. His young and impulsive lover, Waldo (Joseph Bitangcol), flees to Manila in disgust. After a month of hesitation, Joaquin leaves his wife to follow Waldo. His search takes him on a seamy yet colorful trip through Manila's gay underbelly. He discovers Waldo's dangerous flirtation with Rufo (Emilio Garcia), a bisexual rogue cop who holds the clue to Waldo's disappearance. Rufo lures Joaquin into his home and introduces him to his submissive wife, Beng (Jean Garcia). A sadist who beats up Beng regularly, Rufo turns Joaquin into a prisoner and sex slave — like he did to Waldo. When Joaquin is finally reunited with Waldo, he discovers that Rufo is about to sell them like fish to an international sex trafficking ring, along with his personal harem of male and female captives. With Beng's help, the two lovers plot their escape.
Survivor Philippines Update: Patani Daño was Voted Out of Survivor Philippines
A few moments after mountaineer Gigit Sulit was unanimously sent home by his tribemates in the Jarakay Tribe, host Paolo Bediones surprised the tribe by announcing that another one of their members will be voted out.
In a surprise turn of events, the Jarakay tribe had to vote out one of their own again without discussing and strategizing how they will cast their votes. Paolo prevented the remaining members of the Jarakay from talking to each other prior to their votes.
In the end, Patani's three votes against her was enough to sent her packing; call center agent Nikki Dacullo and architect Niña Ortiz both got two votes while auto mechanic-model John Lopez got one vote.
The 20-year-old native of Talisay, Cebu took everything lightly and even managed to smile after Paolo announced her elimination from the game.
In her exit interview, Patani said, "Sayang hindi ako nagtagal do'n. Pero okay lang kasi, unang-una talaga, mapasali lang dito sa Survivor, e, malaking karangalan na talaga para sa akin. Kasi nasa Cebu ako, 'tapos kung hindi ako napasama dito, hindi ako makakabalik ng Maynila. Kasi wala akong pamasahe, di ba? 'Tapos hindi ako magkakaroon ng passport, 'tapos hindi ako makakapunta dito sa Thailand.
But most importantly, Patani added, "'tapos nagkaroon ako ng 'exfosyur.'"
Patani is very vocal about her desire to enter the world of showbiz. In fact, the main reason she decided to audition in Survivor Philippines was to get a free ticket into showbiz.
Patani auditioned in StarStruck several times but she never made the cut. Through Survivor Philippines, she got the "exposure" she always wanted.
With Patani's exit, the Jarakay tribe and the Naak tribe are now even with seven members each.

Obra Presents Sunshine Dizon will premiere this Thursday, October 9, after GMA Telebabad.
Cristy Fermin Fires Back at Nadia Montenegro
Here is the complete interview of Cristy Fermin with Boy Abunda:
Nadia Montenegro: "Seven months ago Tito Boy you know I've lost a very good friend [Gretchen Berretto]. I lost her because of intrigues. I lost her because of Cristy Fermin, who until this day has not proven that text message she told Gretchen that I sent to all these media, to all the reporters.
"Nagharap-harap kami sa Rembrandt [hotel] wala siyang napakita. Cristy Fermin, humingi ka ng oras kay Boy [Asistio], sa asawa ko, nakiusap ka kay Boy kung puwede mo akong solohin sa taas sa Rembrandt. Kahit ayoko nang makita ang pagmumukha mo, pinagbigyan kita!"
Cristy Fermin: "Boy, base sa sinabi ni Nadia Montenegro mga kaibigan, tahasan ko pong sasabihin na sinungaling na siya ay inconsistent pa. Ilang buwan na ang nakararaan kung tawagan niya si Gretchen, inilarawan niyang masamang babae—user, exploiter at schemer. Ngayon sasabihin mo, 'I lost a good friend,' mali 'yon Nadia. Unang-una, 'yong sinasabi mo na kasangkot ako sa kaso ninyo ni Gretchen, wala akong alam diyan. Pumasok lamang ako sa sitwasyon nung nasukol ka na parang daga sa lungga at ako ang ituro mo na nagkakalat ng balita.
"Nadia, natatandaan mo pa ba 'yong mga gabi ilampung buwan kong itinago ito sa puso ko. Hindi ko isinulat sa limang columns ko, hindi ko sinabi dito sa The Buzz, hindi ko sinabi sa DZMM. Nadia, kung natatandaan mo pa, maraming gabi mo akong binubulabog. Pinagdadala mo ako ng camera sa Essensa [condominium in Taguig City] alas-otso ng gabi, alas otso ng umaga, lipstick, camera ang pinadadala mo sa akin. Ang sabi mo i-connive ko kuntsabahin ko 'yong guwardiya ng Essensa sa basement dahil doon bumababa si Gretchen.
"Tanungin nating pareho si Gretchen Barretto kung mula nang sabihin mo sa akin 'yon ay ipinagkanulo kita kay Gretchen. Ako'y pumasok lamang sa sitwasyon nung ako na ang idinidiin mo doon sa sinasabi mo na you've lost a good friend. Totoo, nawalan ka ng isang mabuting kaibigan.
"Nung nagkita-kita tayo sa Friday's at Rembrandt, hinawakan ni Gretchen Barretto ang kamay ni dating mayor Boy Asistio. Ang tanong ni Gretchen, 'Mayor, ano pa po ba ang dapat kong gawin at ibigay kay Nadia para huwag na niya akong traydorin?' Anong sabi ni Tito Boy? 'Hindi ko alam. Matagal ko na siyang pinagsasabihan na lumayo sa ganitong mga isyu, hindi na siya nakikinig.'
"'Yong sinasabi mo na ayaw mong makita ang aking pagmumukha nung gabing 'yon, Nadia, mas kailangan mo ako nung gabing 'yon kesa sa kailangan kita. Si Tanya Montenegro na kapatid mo ang kumuha sa akin para dalhin ako sa mezzanine floor kung saan ka naroon. Nakita kitang umiiyak, nandoon si Tanya, nandoon si Christine Puno, at pinangaralan kita kahit na ipinagkanulo mo ako, umiral pa rin ang pagiging pusong ina ko.
"Anong sabi ko sa 'yo? 'Kulang ang isang katawan mo, ang isang bibig mo para sa anim na anak mo at kay Tito Boy.' Umiyak ka nang umiyak sa 'kin, 'Sorry, nanay, sorry, nanay.' At 'yon ang panahon na nagpadala ka dito ng apology letter sa The Buzz na binasa ni Boy. Ngayon, sasabihin mo na ako ang may kasalanan?
"Si Gretchen, maraming salamat sa paninindigan dahil sinabi ni Gretchen na wala akong kinalaman sa kanilang away. Ninety million, anong sabi mo sa akin? 'She made me a slave for four years.' P900-million ang sangkot dito. Hindi P9,000, hindi P90,000. P90-million pesos! May bahay kayong nakasangla sa bangko ni Mr. Tonyboy Cojuangco, ginawa ni Gretchen ang lahat ng paraan para makatira pa kayo ng apat na taon. Anong sabi ni Gretchen kay Tito Boy? 'Mayor, masama pa po ba akong kaibigan? Apat na taon pa kayo na nagkaroon ng ektensyon para makatira sa pakikipaglaban ko.'
"Anong sabi mo sa akin? 'Pinababa ni Mr. Tonyboy Cojuangco si Gretchen. Pinalayas, walang natirang anuman sa katawan kundi ang dala lang niya. Ano'ng nagawa niya sa kanyang mga bags, sa kanyang mga alahas? Wala.' Ikaw ang nagkalat sa iba't ibang bibig. Nung nasukol ka na, ako ang iyong idiniin."
Nadia Montenegro: "Naeskandalo ako. Ako ang 'pinakamasamang tao', 'pinakamasamang kaibigan sa balat ng buong mundo', pero never akong lumabas. Hindi ko napagtanggol ang sarili ko. Kasi sabi nila, hindi titigil si Cristy Fermin. Tito Boy, hindi siya tumigil. May mga artistang hindi makapaglaban, wala kaming laban, Tito Boy. May mikropono siya, may makinilya siya, may ballpen siya. Tito Boy, pinapakain niya sa pamilya niya 'yong sinasabi niyang hanapbuhay sa paninirang-puri. Ilang artista, Tito Boy, ang hindi makapaglaban. Walang mawawala sa akin, wala na ako sa showbiz, Tito Boy. Wala akong show, wala akong pelikula. Hindi ko kailangan mag-comeback. Wala."
Cristy Fermin: "Boy, 'yong sinabi niya na hindi siya lumalabas, talagang hindi lumalabas ang mga traydor, patalikod kung bumira ang mga traydor. Pangalawa, ang sabi mo [Nadia], ang pinakakain ko sa pamilya ko ay ang paninira ko ng mga artista. Nadia, basahin mo ang mga columns ko, marami akong pinupuri na artista na hindi ko kakilala at hindi ko ka-close. Marami rin akong kakilala na kalapit ko na artista na pinipitik ko 'pag nagkakamali. Huwag kang mag-imbento ng scenario na hindi mo kayang panindigan, 'yon lang."
Nadia Montenegro: "'Yong sinasabi niya na bawang ako, sawsawan, suka... Lahat na, Tito Boy, tinawag na niya akong baboy, gago, sinungaling... Tito Boy, lahat tinawag na niya sa akin. Pero 'yong tinira na niya si Boy na asawa ko, na nananihimik... Sinabi ni Cristy, may article siya na hindi nakakapatay ang salita. Tito Boy, wala na si Tito Rollie [Concepcion, Gabby Concepcion's father]. Hihintayin ko bang mangyari sa nanay ko at sa asawa ko 'yon?
"May nanay din siyang [Cristy] nakaratay ngayon, Tito Boy. Hindi ba dapat pag-aksayahan niya na lang ng panahon, ipagdasal niya nanay niya kesa siraan niya lahat ng tao dito? Sobra na, Tito Boy, e! Sobra na siya! Wala akong matandaan na ginawa sa kanya, wala! Siguro wala lang siyang napapakinabangan sa akin dahil hindi ako magbabayad para purihin mo lang ako!"
Cristy Fermin: "'Yong sinabi niya na asikasuhin ko ang nanay ko, ipagdadasal ko 'yon ang linya, isa sa dalawang linya, 'tsaka 'yong wala akong budhi, tsaka 'yong pagsaling niya sa nanay ko, sa pinakamainit na kumot na binalabal ko sa malamig na Canada, Boy, ang nanay ko ay nabubuhay na lamang sa extensyon ng dasal naming magkakapatid ngayon. May batas akong sinusulat sa aking puso at bawat anak siguro ay ganun din. Salingin na ang lahat sa 'tin, galawin na ang lahat sa 'tin, suntukin na tayo mula ulo hanggang paa, saktan na tayo, [pero] huwag mong gagalawin ang nanay ko na 97 years old na.
"'Yong sinasabi mong magbabayad ka para puruhin kita, Nadia, balikan mo nga mula nung 14 Going Steady days, ni-launch ka ng Regal. Mula nung panahon na 'yon hanggang ngayon na nagsasalita ako sa mikropono, pakialala n'yo nga mga magkakapatid kung nagbayad kayo sa 'kin kahit singkong duling? Kapag pinupuri ko ba kayo, marunong kayong magpasalamat? Si Tanya, marunong magpasalamat. Ikaw [Nadia] ang sini-single out ko, marunong ka bang magpasalamat kapag pinupuri ka? Naaalala mo lang ako kapag pinipitik kita.
"At hindi bayaran ang babaeng tinutukoy mo. Kung meron kang kilala na kolumnista na pilay ang prinsipyo, kung meron kang kilalang artistang nababayaran ng panulat, reporter, hindi ako ang tinutukoy mo. Nadia, publikasyon ang nagbabayad sa akin, hindi artista!"
Nadia Montenegro: "I have to remind Cristy Fermin, you are convicted for libel. You have no credibility no more. I do not know but I have to say this and I have to fight for what I believe in. After nito, sisiraan niya pa rin ako siguro dahil wala nang budhi si Cristy Fermin!"
Cristy Fermin: "Tungkol doon sa kasong libelo, si Tito Eddie [Gutierrez] nga, si Tita Annabelle [Rama], at si Ruffa [Gutierrez] na direktang kasangkot hindi nagsasalita tungkol doon. Umandar na naman ang pagiging bawang ni Nadia Montenegro. Na-miss ko 'yon kanina, hindi ko siya tinatawag na suka. 'Yong g-a-g-o, hindi ko ginagamit sa column ko 'yon, hindi talaga.
"Ang paninindigan ko lang, Nadia, 'yong tinawag kitang bawang kasi sa lahat naman ng gulo sa showbiz, talagang kasali ka. Lagi kang umeeksena, lagi kang spokesperson. 'Yong baboy ka, hindi sa akin nanggaling 'yon. 'Yong 'Lilet' read 'liletsunin,' hindi sa 'kin galing 'yon. Sa mga dating kaibigan mo na tinraydor mo. Pero bago na ang pangalan mo ngayon; 'Ina' ka na, 'inahin' ka na ngayon.
"Boy, 'yong sinabi mo na pinakahuling sinabi niya ay ako daw ay walang budhi, Boy, kapag sinabi mo kasing walang budhi ang tao, pinatay mo na siya, e. Ginawa mo na siyang kriminal, ginawa ka na niyang buhay na patay. 'Yong kredibilidad, ilang beses nang sinubok ng panahon ang aking kredibilidad at ako'y natutuwa naman dahil ang publiko hanggang ngayon ay naniniwala sa aking mga sinasabi at sinusulat. Sinong walang kredibilidad sa sa 'ting dalawa? Ikaw na nagsasalita nang patalikod, pero 'pag nasusukol nagtuturo ka ng ibang tao para maghugas-kamay ka.
"Pangalawa, 'yong sinabi mo na wala akong budhi, Nadia, makinig ka ngayon. Boy, apat ang aking anak na galing sa aking sinapupunan. May dalawa akong anak na hinugot sa puso ko, hindi galing sa sinapupunan ko. 'Yong apat na anak ko at dalawa na ipinanganak ng kanilang mga magulang at dinugtungan ang buhay, itinuturing ko rin na parang anak.
"Nadia, mahigit dalawang taon na ang nakararaan, nagdalang-tao ka na hindi alam ng karelasyon mo, hindi alam ng pamilya mo. Nagpunta ka sa isang ospital na matatagpuan sa pagitan ng Mandaluyong at Pasig. Pumasok ka ng alas-dose ng hatinggabi, inoperahan ka kinaumagahan, nagsilang ka ng sanggol na babae, nagtago ka sa pangalang Nadine Villegas. Nadia, umuwi ka ng bahay, hindi mo dinala ang sanggol, pinaalagaan mo sa isang kaibigan mong aktres na kilala natin pareho, kilala ng publiko ng ilang buwan. Pagkatapos ng ilang buwan, pinadala mo ang bata sa inyong tahanan ipinakilala mo sa karelasyon mo at sa iyong mga anak bilang ampon mo.
"Nadia, sino sa atin ngayon ang walang budhi? Ako na nagmahal at nagkaroon ng ekstensyon at oportunidad na magmahal ng dalawang bata na hindi ko dugo, o ikaw na hinugot sa sinapupunan mo ang isang sanggol pero hindi mo binigyan ng pangalan? Manalamin tayo nang sabay ngayon."
Nadia Montenegro: "Kay Cristy Fermin, pumunta ako dito dahil alam kong wala nang mawawala sa akin. For seven months, tinira mo ako. Hindi ko na aantayin na maging isang mayor JV Ejercito, maging isang Piolo [Pascual] na tinira mo ng ilang taon. Lahat, lahat halos ng artista dito hindi makakibo, hindi makalaban. Pero ako, walang mawawala sa akin. Sana pagtapos nito, itigil mo na. Isang beses pa akong makarinig na sinisiraan ninyo ako, ibubulgar ko ang lahat! At Cristy, hindi namumundok ang asawa ko at kung mamundok man siya dahil kanya ang bundok."
Cristy Fermin: "Hindi marunong umunawa si Nadia kasi ng isang panulat o baka hindi niya nabasa ang column ko. Wala akong sinabing namundok si Tito Boy. Ang sinabi ko, laging sa farm sa Bicol si Tito Boy dahil hindi naaasikaso ni Nadia at hindi niya pinakikinggan ang mga pangaral. Wala akong sinabing namundok si Tito Boy. Nadia, ang libro ng buhay ko ay lantad sa publiko. Lahat ng pahina inilalabas ko. Hindi ako 'yong klase ng tao na namimili lamang ng mga pahinang magaganda para ipabasa sa publiko. Ibalik mo sa akin 'yong basurang sinasabi mo at tiyak na babalik sa mukha mo."
And what is Cristy's parting words for Nadia?
"Nadia, tumaas ang BP [blood pressure] ng mommy mo sa Amerika dahil sa kagagawan mo at hindi dahil sa akin. Baka nga hindi mo pa alam, itinatakbo pa lang sa ospital at nagpapa-BP ang mommy mo, alam ko na. Ang pakiusap niya sa iyo, 'Huwag na huwag mong bibirahin ang Nanay Cristy mo dahil hindi natin kayang bayaran ang utang na loob natin sa kanya. Pero hindi mo siya pinakinggan."

I know the player
With the slick
Trigger finger
For Her Majesty
Another one
With the
Golden tone voice
And then your fantasy
Another bill
From a killer
Turned a thrill
Into a tragedy
A door left open
A woman walking by
A drop in the water
A look in the eye
A phone on the table
A man on your side
Someone that you think
That you can trust is just
Another way to die
Another tricky little gun
Giving solace to the one
That will never see
The sunshine
Another inch of your life
For your brother
In the nick of time
Another dirty money,
Heaven sent honey
Turning on a dime
A door left open
A woman walking by
A drop in the water
A look in the eye
A phone on the table
A man on your side
Someone that you think
That you can
Trust is just
Another way to die
Another girl
With her finger
On the world singing?
Another gun thrown down
And surrendered
Took away your fear
Another man
That stands right
Behind you
Looking in the mirror
Oh, a door left open
A woman walking by
A drop in the water
A look in the eye
A phone on the table
A man on your side
Someone that you think
That you can trust
Is just another way to die

The Avengers - July 15, 2011
