Marty's Launches Savory Spicy Flavored Vegetable Chicharon!

After Oishi's much successful product launch of it's vegetable chicharon, Marty's Salt & Vinegar, it just launched another variant - Spicy Flavor. I bought three big bags for my Cooling Station customers so they could try it out. I bought one for myself to see how it tastes like. I think it's really good and I had to drink a glass of warm milk just to take out the sting. I'll be stacking more in my store to anticipate more patrons.

This product was launched after Marty's re-launched Baconettes - the Bacon-less, Bacon-flavored Vegetable Chicharon. Ha! I think Oishi Brand Manager should pay me for that tagline. It's good but I think it's a bit saltier for my taste.

Did Lopez Company Endanger Makati?

West Tower residents held a press conference at the condominium Monday morning to make the announcement and show how the situation worsened since last month when a siphoning operation mounted by their homeowner’s group was stopped by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources.

via newsinfo.inquirer.net

Ever since gas and oil started seeping in the basement floor of the West Tower condominium, no one has sued First Philippines Industrial Corporation (FPIC) for endangering the lives of Makati City's residents.

Makati City Government
The mayor should have been the very first one to defend the city's residents. But I have not heard anybody from the City Engineer's office bring this matter to the courts.

Media
Did you ever read or watch anybody from our media giants like ABSCBN, GMA News, Philippine Daily Inquirer, and the Philippine Star raise as much concern as they would be with the current impeachment proceedings of the Ombudsman? Where are the columnists? Why aren't they helping create more awareness about this precarious situation of our citizens?

Makati City Residents
Why aren't they doing anything about it to help themselves? Are they ignorant of the danger? Are we living lives so simply that we couldn't care less if something under our feet will endanger us?

I was flabbergasted to realize that any catastrophic event can cause disaster of biblical proportions if these oil pipes will burst and explode.

China, Libya has Philippines' Throat

PH ‘can’t openly support’ UN action on Libya - US Amb. Harry Thomas, Jr.

via globalnation.inquirer.net

IT'S SAD that our nation is taken hostage by nations that hire Filipinos as workers. Ever since the new administration stepped in, it seems that we can't say anything or make a stand at any issue against any nations that hire our kababayans. China's leash dictated our non-support of Noble Peace Prize awarding ceremonies last year and now Libya government's position against nations who support the recent NATO attacks in his country.

What's next? Is this our foreign policy now? Would nations like China and Libya use our OFWs as pawns to hostage and muffle our political will in the international community? Is this a step to the right direction? I think President Aquino should take a clear stand and tell nations our people have value and they can't hold our citizens as negotiation pieces for their advantage.

We are a nation rooted in the laws of God. No nation can own us - let alone - tell us how we should act.

HIV cases rise in Mandaluyong

"Lahat ng call center agents na magtatrabaho sa Mandaluyong ay kailangang ma-check mabuti before they are issued medical certificates,” Abalos said.

via journal.com.ph

Why target call-center agents? So what if infected men are not issued medical certificates? They can always get fake ones. The question we should address is, "What are we going to do to help these men?" We can always drive people out of work and out of the city by publishing sharp comments like this, however, we will not address the main problem of transmitting the disease to other unsuspecting victims. There should be a change in the lives of these people and sadly the city administrators cannot offer any help to ease the pain of these workers. Sadly we are quick to shun them and fail to provide help.

Now to drug dependents and men who have sex with other men, how can we help them realize this destructive path they're taking? Their damning acts should stop and the community has the greatest opportunity to bring back values in their lives.

This article was successful only in causing more hurt to the city and to those whose lives are now ruined because of their mistake in getting this disease.

All Organic Made Products are IN!

AFTER SHOWING YOU how dangerous some over-the-shelf personal products we use are, it is good now to show you what products my wife and I use today.

These are just some of the new team members of my bathroom club. Hahaha. That's funny. Kidding aside, these products are great discoveries my wife researched from the web after receiving a gift containing another product of the same manufacturer. Welcome, Human Nature!

As you can see below, I researched the ingredients and it's checking out clean except for some warnings that mention concentration limitations. I don't think that's a concern because the benefits I experienced from using these products are awesome.   

The ingredients used in these products are. . .
