It's a pleasure to see web sites that feature local bands of Bacolod. As a Bacolodnon, I'm proud to say that Bacolod deserves best bands and I'm very happy to know that one of us compiled Bacolod's popular local bands in one web site.
BacolodBootleg is a video collection of Bacolod's famous local bands. Some of which were taken by the author himself and some were shared by Bacolod bands themselves. That's true Bacolodnons' camaraderie.
As its first featured band, BacolodBootleg hails In memory Of (IMO).

As I see it: Presidential Wannabes (Part 2)
"Talino at Galing". That's the theme of Gibo's campaign ads for 2010 Presidential Elections. I got to see Gibo's interview with Cheche Lazaro in Profiles and I'm quite impressed by the way he delivers his answers and how he deals with sensitive questions and topics. Gibo's answers were quick and clear. Gibo is a realist, as I see it. He can run the country with flying colors. That, of course, remains to be seen.
Who is Sec. Gilbert "Gibo" Teodoro Jr.?
Gilbert "Gibo" Teodoro Jr. is tagged as the political son of Danding Cojuangco. But, Gibo later on resigned from NPC, Danding Cojuangco's political party, and joined Lakas-Kampi.
From Google Chrome Browser to Google Chrome OS
Here's an article I got from webopedia. It talks about the newest Google OS which Google is now brewing for its avid consumers. I think this is good news. It is because (if this goes available, in a matter of time) we would give ourselves a break to the very expensive and indespensible OS in the world - MAC and Microsoft's Windows.
Now There's Google Chrome — the OS
On July 7, 2009, nine months after the Chrome browser was released, Google announced an extension to Google Chrome — the Google Chrome Operating System.
Google Chrome Browser Is Faster
I've been using Google Chrome browser for almost a month now and been impressed on its functionality so far. True to its words, google chrome loads faster compared to both Mozilla's Firefox and Internet Explorer browser. It has a better user-interface and easy-on-the-eye design, too. I like it better than the other browsers.
Fast start-up
Google Chrome launches in a snap.
Fast loading
Google Chrome loads web pages quickly.
Fast search
Search the web right from the address bar.
Are You A Coffee Drinker? Think Again
Beware!!!
A recent study broke down the calorie count of popular coffeehouse beverages. Well, the bad news is, blended beverages (anything other than straight coffee or tea) normally packed with 200 calories or more -- this would be very scary for those who are very conscious with their body figures because drinking blended coffee daily could add 20 pounds to your body weight.
Grey Digital Cameras
This is probably a new term to you as it is to me. So, read along, this could be useful to you.
Guitar Wars in Infiniti Bar Bacolod
We had a great time last night watching and listening to local bands here in Bacolod. The Guitar Wars, I am assuming, was a showdown or an exhibition of guitar playing, strumming and all that (I don't know what's the right term for that). The Infiniti Bar was filled with bands and enthusiasts in various types. There were those that only play rock; others hum contemporary; some go with Blues while a friend of mine was contented with instrumentals. It was a hard-rocking show. But, it could have been better if only the organizers geared up its promotions. It would have been jampacked.
The Rule of Balance in Photography
Been dreaming of having DSLR, just taking shots of anything. But, I realized I should learn the basics first before investing in an expensive hobby. So I get to read and scan a lot of photography tips, simple guides, as much as possible, from the web. I stumbled upon an article from Digital Photogarphy School (DPS). I usually get valuable information and easy steps from DPS regarding Photography.
They say... one of the most important compositional principle in Photography is 'balance'. It's not like the other rule, the Rule of thirds where you can identify key spots on an image by imagining lines through it. Balance is compositional factor worth considering when framing shots.
As I See It: Presidential Wannabes (Part 1)
Kilala Mo Ba Talaga Sila? That's the title of Probe Team's new branding, Profiles, which tackles the public and private lives of presidential wannabes for the upcoming 2010 Presidential Election.
I think this investigative show, Profiles, is a great venue for us young electorate to know more about the background and qualifications of the men and women who have of course expressed intentions to run for president next year.
Profiles' first installment of the series probes Sen. Manny Villar.

Generic and Brand Name Drugs
Is there a difference between Generic and brand name drugs?
I've researched opinions and articles in the web and here's what I found. At times of crisis, Generic drugs could save you money, more so, your life.
Spirit of Adventure
Pixar's animation has done it again! UP springs from simple, straightforward stories that cater not only kids but all age groups.
"In oder to move on you've got to let go of some things at some point." That's what the movie UP teaches us. The spirit of adventure is in Russell, the Wilderness Explorer scout. The very cute Rusell persistently offered his assistance to Carl who in this film is an elderly longing for his late wife named Ellie. UP will take you to South America as Carl promised to for Ellie. Towards the end of the trail, Russell the persistent boy teaches Carl to move on, that is, to move on to another adventure.
UP animated film is totally entertaining and simply stunning to take in. It's so beautiful you forget you're watching an animated film; instead losing youself in an dazzling film.

Web Surfing Helps the Brain
An interesting article from RealAge.com
If you're one of those internet/web surfing addicts (i bet you are, co'z reading this), here's some good news for you.
You're actually doing your brain a favor. Yes, you heard me right! Research shows that decision-making and reasoning centers in the brain light up like fireworks when computer-savvy people do Web searches.
I know web surfing (or loafing, hehehe) seems like a pleasant way to kill time, but in a study of older adults, it just did much more. Brain scans of the computer-adept group showed more activity during Internet searches, compared with the brain scans of people who weren't so handy with a browser.
More Tips on RealAge.com....
Information Is Brainpower
Researchers say that searching the Web most likely stimulates the brain by forcing you to evaluate search results and make decisions about what links to click.
Cut Fatty-Food Cravings With Calcium and Vitamin D
According to studies, adding a calcium and vitamin D supplements on your diet helps lose weight. Researchers theorize that when your calcium intake is too low, your body may start craving foods rich in the mineral. Many of us do not know this but foods high in calcium are also high in fat and calories (imagine ice cream ans full-fat cheese).
| "When you take vitamin D with calcium, your body absorbs more of the calcium, so a combo supplement is best." |

The Next Best Thing
Independent films are gaining much more popularity nowadays. In fact, it's much cheaper to produce a movie like these ones. Indie films have low budget and shorter time of shooting and I mean the entire movie. What I like about it is that its substance is never compromised. Since it's not commercialized like the ones produced by Star Cinema or GMA Films, short films are more appealing to most theater and movie buffs. It's much more convincing because veteran actors prefer doing it. It always is a powerhouse of great actors.
Let's take for example, Yanggaw, a horror film written and directed by Negrenses' pride Richard Somes. I happened to see the movie and it brought me shivers while watching it. It only proves that it does not require expensive CGI effects to make convincing scenes.
Yanggaw, produced by Cinema One Originals, scores high because of its great cast - Ronnie Lazaro and Joel Torre. Cheers to both of them!
| "Yanggaw is easily one of my favorite films; getting a fresh take on Negrense local myths." |
Indie films are definitely the next best thing.
Yanggaw Shown Today at Robinson's Place Bacolod
Yanggaw is a Hiligaynon word meaning infected. It is more associated to a person who is infected by a poison of an evil spirit; eventually turns into an aswang, a monster feasting on flesh and blood.
Yanggaw has a fresh take on Negros local myths. The short film is being more sincere as presentation is concerned because it is dubbed in Hiligaynon, a dialect spoken by Bacolodnons. Most of cast members, if not all, are from Bacolod, Negros Occidental.

Bacolod celebrates 30th Masskara Festival
I know it is too late to write about Bacolod Masskara Festival but I'm writing it anyway.
The Masskara Festival is a week-long festival held every third weekend of October. Just a brief etymology, Masskara means a multitude of smiling faces coined from the word "Mass" meaning people and the Spanish word "cara" meaning face. True to its history, the festival was taken by Bacolodnons as a good opportunity to put out the gloomy atmosphere. After all the typhoons that had stricken Manila and surrounding areas two weeks before the charter, the people of Bacolod still showed resiliency.
| A Brief History of Masskara Festival |
| "The festival first began in 1980 during a period of crisis. The province relied on sugar cane as its primary agricultural crop, and the price of sugar was at an all-time low due to the introduction of sugar substitutes like high fructose corn syrup in the United States. It was also a time of tragedy; on April 22 of that year, the inter-island vessel Don Juan carrying many Negrenses, including those belonging to prominent families in Bacolod City, collided with the tanker Tacloban City and sank. An estimated 700 lives were lost in the tragedy." |
It is always been expected that beer (lots of it), food (esp. the famous Bacolod inasal), huge audio systems and live bands are the center of merry-making in the streets of Lacson (now known as the Tourism Strip in Bacolod). I got to experience the street party and it was fun and loud.
With the outpouring support from all the Baranggays of Bacolod, the Masskara Street Dancing competition was a success. Not to mention, all their hardwork and sleepless nights memorizing the basic formation and dance steps. All the dancers danced gracefully with their colorful costumes, heavy props and smiling masks.
Truly, Bacolod City is the City of Smiles.
Masskara Festival Schedules - October 16, 2009
Audio sytems are now installed along Araneta Street for the SMB Night party and also in Lacson Streets for the Electric Masskara Dance parade tonight at 6. This should be fun!

SEO Seminar at Planta Hotel Centro Bacolod
I've heard SEO from friends before but it just slipped into my mind. I thought it was only for hardcore programmers. But I was given a chance to attend a seminar on Search Engine Optimization (thanks to my bosses!). I would always rely on the internet for my research but little did I know seminars could be more, much interesting.
The topic was "Making Money through Website". It was held last October 8, 2009 at the Planta Hotel Centro Bacolod located along Araneta Street. The hosts were from JNB Web Promotions. They've been very accommodating.
The seminar on Search Engine Optimization was basically about web site visibility. If you want to increase your web site's popularity or PageRank, SEO is the answer. It could produce top placements for your web sites practically to any popular search engines like Google, Yahoo, Ask.com, MSN (also known as Bing.com) and the like. It was interesting. I was drawn to it. Imagine you get to earn some bucks by simply blogging. Money-making could have been a lot easier for copywriters through SEO.
According to Wikipedia...
Search engine optimization (SEO) is the process of improving the volume or quality of traffic to a web site from search engines via "natural" or un-paid ("organic" or "algorithmic") search results as opposed to search engine marketing (SEM) which deals with paid inclusion. Typically, the earlier (or higher) a site appears in the search results list, the more visitors it will receive from the search engine. SEO may target different kinds of search, including image search, local search, video search and industry-specific vertical search engines. This gives a web site web presence.
Bending Waters in Guimaras Island
We've been dreaming of going to Guimaras for a long time and it finally came true last weekend. The plans were drafted. We ironed out schedules. The room was reserved. Then, friday night we decided to meet at the terminal at 4:30 saturday morning.
The First Trip
It was a gloomy saturday when we departed Bacolod. We planned to take on the route of Pulupundan to Guimaras Island. At 5 o'clock in the morning we commuted without even knowing what time the first boat trip is. After 50 minutes of road trip to Pulupandan we reached the wharf. We still had like two hours to prepare for a boat ride since the first trip was 8am. We sipped coffee and talked about the island - what is it going to be when we got there? Whatever that is ahead of us it would still be called adventure and it starts now.
The Long and Winding Road
We were amazed by the fine white sands at the coastlines of the island. It was as if welcoming as with its scenic view of Mother Nature. Off we went our next land trip heading for Alubihod where Raymen Beach Resort resides. Well, as first timers, we had a hard time in the van which took the long route around the mountainous village of Jordan (one of the municipalities of Guimaras Island). We practically toured the whole town but not for pleasure, I think. It was too late to realize that it was a commuters' van. That was an hour of prolonged agony of sitting (or was it crumpling?!?) just like smoked sardines in a tin can. At last we reached the main road of Jordan but our road trip did not stop there. Another 10-20 minutes of jeepney ride took us to Alubihod (can't tell time after that disastrous van ride). The trip did not stop there either; another tricycle ride finally had taken us to Raymen Beach Resort. And there it was, the hard-labored-long-trip was erased, white sands and crystal clear water had taken over- the sea.
The Superior Night
Our room is located at the 3rd level of the hotel. We unpacked our things and inspected the room. It had two beds; each could accommodate two to three persons - one for the two girls Cheryl and Jill. The other bed was for three of us, we decided - Ronald, Boojie and me. An extra set of beddings was provided for Archie. We were done just in time for lunch. Chicken and pork adobo was served for the six of us. It was good enough to recharge us for our next activity. We strolled along the shores appreciating the cool breeze and the view of the seaside. As always, photo ops were everywhere. Although, it was a little crowded for a resort, we enjoyed watching little children play along the water. It was as if the waves were their playmates. Taking a plunge in the water was a little colder than I have expected, though it was sunny. We thought it would be better if warmed up a little so we decided to go back to our room; and, alcohol went into play. Shots were taken - that was for a shot of glass and camera shots I suppose. We enjoyed the whole afternoon laughing at each other until one or two bottles of Tanduay Superior were consumed at haste.
The Chicken Dance
It was getting dark we finally plunged in the water. The alcohol helped a lot since the wind is a little colder at night as usual. Pictures were taken and admired the sunset. Even night swimming is in at Raymen. Spotlights are lit at night all the more the people swarming at the sea shores to experience the tranquility and the vastness of the sea. We kept swimming and playing along the waves until 7 o'clock in the evening. We washed a little and headed for the canteen for dinner. We devoured a whole meal of grilled pork and milkfish and sinigang na tangegui. After dinner, we took out another bottle of alcohol. As the night gets darker and darker, more games evolved until the "Chicken Dance". The game started with: the first person would give an animal name and then the next person would also given an animal name that starts with the last letter of the previous animal name (i.e. first person give duck then the next gives kangaroo then next person gives ostrich and so on). Anyone who could not give a name should dance the chicken dance. And yours truly did the first dance - pathetic. And they even recorded it. I went through it two times (whew!). It only shows that I'm not an animal person. Anyways, it was fun and we laughed our hearts out until we got tired and called it a night to reserve our energy for island hopping the next morning.
The Flying Pawikan
At seven in the morning, we left Raymen for island hopping. As expected, more breathtaking views approached us. It was a calm sunny day conducive for island hopping so took pictures of islets surrounding Guimaras. Our first stop was in what they commonly called Turtle Island. It is because the locals in that island breed turtles. They built a sanctuary floating by the shores just good enough to tame and feed the pawikans. Well, each of us had to carry the pawikan for the photos. As we took turns, and Jill can't get enough, she carried it again but the turtle did not like it. The pawikan flipped its hand like it was flying and Jill could have got hurt if she did not handle it carefully. Right then we understood, the pawikan would not allow anyone to carry him the second time around. Enough of flying turtle, the second stop was in Baras Beach Resort. More picture-taking took place in this pit stop. We made use of the islets (were as if guarding the resort), as our background. The third stop was supposed to be a cave but it was not quite safe to cross because of the big waves in the area. So, we went to a more safe yet secluded part of the island where we swum for about 30 minutes; just enjoying the clear water and photo ops. We were off for our last stop at the huge house right off the cliff when we decided to go back because of the big waves approaching us. As we turn our way back to the resort, another motor boat, with three girls as passengers, raced against us in the middle of the sea. One of the manila girls, we thought, had a crush on Ronald because she glanced at him every time the boats got near each other. It was fun. We got off the boat just in time for lunch.
The Dragon and the Rose
At lunch time, we devoured another meal of grilled pork, shrimp and sinigang na baboy just enough to regain all the energies we lost during our island hopping. We played Uno using a deck of ordinary playing cards which bought in the island after lunch - one who losses, takes a shot of whiskey. 3pm, we went to the shores and Jill and Cheryl decided to have henna tattoos - a dragon and a rose with thorns respectively. I decided to have my own tattoo also - just double barbwires on my wrist. Late afternoon, we went swimming until it was dark in time for our last dinner. More clicks and tiger looks were posed for our last night.
Here Comes the Rain Again
Since we were all exhausted after flashes and splashes, we spent our last night in one of Raymen's cottages. It was raining and all we did was talk about everything - work, opinion about something and the future.
The island is as if weeping since we would be leaving the next day.
We talked while we drink. We laugh while we sneer at each other. But, at the end, we still remained friends.
Whatever that is, we're off for our next trip.
All in a day!
This summer the weather may have been an ever-changing and unpredictable event but then again with all our guts we went out of town. We simply do not know when it's going to rain or when it's going to be a scorching heat sunny day. No preparation or whatsoever we tried a reservation to ourselves without question or pause (singing, hehehe) last weekend to go trekking in the mountainous area of Negros Occidental.
Negros Occidental has been blessed with vast numbers of natural spots. Nature-tripping is always been a getaway for many Negrosanons to escape the noisy, polluted and populated cities surrounding the island. Yes, we can go to Mambucal in Murcia, Buenos Aires in Bago, Gintubdan in La Carlota and many others but there is this one more place that I have never been but always comes across my mind - Patag.
"Patag" is simply translated as flat in english language but the irony of it and confusion is inevitable. Patag in contrast to its name is located in the mountainous and suburb area of Silay City. It is roughly 26 kilometers away from the city proper.
Enough for the long intro but seriously speaking our trip was full of fun and was unpredictable and breathtaking (literally). I believe no words can proper describe the trip that took place only in a day.
The Road Trip
At around seven, one rainy morning (May 09), the Terrano tore north of Silay City. Thanks to Francis Reboton for the ride, by the way. We finally came to a halt at around 9 o'clock in a hospital that was claimed to be former working location of some Japanese guerrillas during World War II. And that was it. We can't wait to seeing the creation of mother nature working on its own.
It was sunny and foggy altogether in Patag. The cool breeze played along with the sound of the river flowing and circling the place. Francis parked his car in one of the resorts found in the place while Jill Paro, Boojie Ong, Ronald Go and I exchanged looks and considered this place as definitely a great place for relaxation and at the same time great for hiking for those who are crazy about nature-tripping and adventures. We can't help it but we took pictures of us with the back draft of greens and whites by the mountains. Archie Lagtapon negotiated with our Guide who will accompany us in the trails. Off we went carrying backpacks as if we were hikers, followed the Guide wondering where he's taking us.
The Long and Winding Trails
In a single file, Jill Paro entertains the Guide by asking too many questions about the place. Brian, the Guide, stopped and then we saw him pounding a rock on the trail ahead of us and lately we realized he's actually beheading a small native snake crossing the grasses. No turning back at this point and time, we convinced ourselves. So we went hoping the mother of that now dead snake is not hunting us. But according to Brian, snakes when born are actually left alone by their mothers and live in the wilds on their own. Sigh, we were relieved. The trails went up and down while we ignore the pit on the side. We also crossed the river using only boulders as footholds. We pose ourselves to take pictures and to have quick rests, 10-minute intervals for a 40-minute trek.
The Waterfalls of Pulang Tubig
Then there it is a 50-meter-or-so waterfalls welcoming us wide open. The splashes of the water makes a cold wind that makes us shiver. It was the best and highest waterfalls I have ever seen in Negros. We put down our things and started to take pictures of the whole place. 
An hour later dipped ourselves in a cold pool waters supplied by the waterfalls. It's so cold that we shiver ignoring possible hypothermia. But, we enjoyed it. A lot! We had a lunch for another 30 minutes and went on again to take pictures. We were awe-struck to the unexploited place - untouched. It feels like we are completely detached from our busy lives down the city. It's truly a summer getaway.
We trailed back at around 3 o'clock in the afternoon. Still, taking pictures along the way. We can't simply get enough. We then went to a shrine, a WWII Veterans Memorial. Again, more clicks and flashes framing ourselves to pose. It was fun.
Since we simply can't get enough, we went on swimming in Ladlad resort to buy some time before we take off. That was the plan. The water in the pool is so cold that no one tried to go in first and the fog is crawling just above the mountains and trees. It's coming towards us thus aggravating the shivers of our lips.
The Dam Waterfalls
We were fixing our things when one of the locals there convinced us to go to another waterfalls besides Pulang Tubig. Well, curiosity's killing us so we followed Mars, the other guide. The trail, this time, is narrower than the trails going Pulang Tubig. That time, we feel retreat but we thought since we already started trek we went on and on... It was only a 15-minute walk, the guide said. Good thing along the trails, we saw a foot walk, cemented. We followed it to our surprise we thought of going back. There's no way we can cross the dam. The water is overflowing. 
We can imagine how slippery it is. But, hey let's go! We went on with crossed fingers. 
The trek is actually worth it. Another waterfalls fueled the river. It's as if welcoming us, the sound of the waterfalls go louder and louder as get nearer and nearer. 
Then I heard clicks and more clicks of the camera. As if professional photographers, we held a photo shoot. Practically, every side of the waterfalls were taken a picture and more poses projected. We had a lot of fun. We went back to Ladlad full of smiles on our face.
At exactly 5 o'clock in the afternoon, we went down and again clicks and flashes invades the hospital. Near the hospital we pose ourselves for the last time and dropped by a chapel to say thank yous for a very fulfilling long trip happened in a day.
