PROJECT PAGSULONG: Building the nation is our business

Given the chance how will you alleviate poverty? That is a question that most of us ask to our fellow Filipinos and even to ourselves.

Youth + Technology + Entrepreneurship

The Program Lifecycle starts with the application that is still ongoing (June to August 30, 2012). Each team should be 3 members(18-30 years old) to 5 max with 1 proposal.

REEL DEAL: Diary of A Wimpy Kid

GREG’S JOURNALS CONTINUES ON THE BIG SCREEN IN “DIARY OF A WIMPY KID: DOG DAYS”

“Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days” is the third and latest big screen installment of author Jeff Kinney’s wildly popular series of illustrated novels about wise-cracking but hapless middle school student Greg Heffley (Zachary Gordon). As Greg confides to his diary (though, as he likes to point out, “It’s NOT a diary, it’s a journal!”), middle school is “the dumbest idea ever invented,” a never-ending ordeal involving – among other appalling things – wedgies, bullies, morons and swirlies. And if you don’t know what a swirly is, then lucky you.

Avida Land, PEF sign MOA for bid to save Philippine Eagle

Avida Land has entered into a sponsorship agreement with the Philippine Eagle Foundation (PEF)—after the signing of the MOA, Avida officially supports the foundation’s efforts to help save the Philippine Eagle and its habitat. With the agreement, Avida is now one of the corporate sponsors of PEF in a concentrated bid to protect this critically endangered species. 

The Philippine eagle is considered one of the largest and most powerful eagles in the world. It is also one of the rarest of all eagle species, found only in the forests of Luzon, Samar, Leyte and Mindanao. Unfortunately, the destruction of forests threatens these raptors’ (meaning, “birds of prey”) existence. The Philippine Eagle is critically endangered and there only about 500 pairs left in the wild

Following the terms of the agreement, Avida Land will support PEF for the next 3 years to help breed Philippine eagles at the PEF sanctuary. The sponsorship also goes into efforts to educate the public on the importance of the Philippine eagle to Davao’s ecosystem and to our national heritage.

Its just a day away until the 26th Olympiad will happen in the historical yet modern city of London in Great Britain. Though our country might have not yet have its Gold medal, we are very optimistic and supportive of the 11 athletes that represents the Philippines in the games. This is also the reason why we made the blog into an Olympic theme in support of our best athletes that would hopefully bring us pride and glory. 

Their number may be small compared to the previous games, analysts are positive that even with this number,  we have really sent quality players that will earn us medal/s and hopefully our first gold.

Of course, we also watch the Olympics because of the grandeur that each host nation would do to make each games unforgettable. The live airing of the opening and closing ceremonies as well of the coverage of the games will be covered by AKTIV (IBC13) and TV5.

Now let's get to meet our Pinoy Pride Athletes!

Regine Velasquez considers diet a serious business

During her pregnancy, Regine Velasquez, grew to a staggering 165lbs.   Now that she’s back in show business after giving birth to baby Nathaniel, she’s targeting 125lbs!  For most of us, this is “a giant leap for mankind” but not for Regine, who is determined to transform the extra flabs to sexy curves in time for her anniversary concert in November.

Regine says she’s currently on Southbeach diet, which she said, has helped her bring her weight down by 12 lbs.

Although the ideal weight for her height is 115lbs., Regine thinks that she would look “too skinny” if she’d target that weight.  Instead, she decided to target 125 lbs. 

Now, she’s trying to lose 15lbs. in a month, but she’s taking it easy.  She also admits to having a diet “cheat day,” which she said was necessary in order to “fool” her body into thinking that she has not changed her usual diet.
