S^CRED CLOTHESLINE

Adidas gathered the 48 grand finalists of the TS Supernatural Shootout at the SM Megamall last March 6, Saturday to determine which basketball aficionado will watch the Orlando Magic face off against the Chicago Bulls live in the US.

Before the Grand Basketball Shootout, adidas patrons, who availed of the new TS Supernatural basketball shoes, battled it out in participating adidas stores and sports shops. Patrons joined the promo by shooting at least five mini-balls in one minute. Highest scorers throughout the promo period, from February 1 to 29, from each participating store were then invited for the Grand Basketball Shootout. Participants were able to track daily standings of the TS Supernatural Shootout in the adidas Philippines fan page in www.facebook.com (Search “adidas Philippines” in Facebook).

Harnessing the proven engineering of the human foot, the new adidas TS Supernatural basketball shoe makes you lighter, more stable, and faster!  Rounded edges, a fit form collar, and EVA tongue allow for a better fit and feel. An ultra low profile and a Torsion plate provide superior stability, while the use of adiprene propulsion foam under the forefoot gives you maximum lift on your way to the rim. And, at a feather-light weight of 366 grams, the new TS Supernatural basketball shoes give you maximum jump height.

After a three-hour shoot out finals, Gerardo Papa, who scored 31 points in one minute, emerged as the winner of the adidas TS Supernatural Grand Basketball Shootout! adidas awarded the hoops master with two roundtrip tickets to the US to watch NBA superstars live! As part of his prize, he also received hotel accommodations and pocket money worth $1,000. Billion Enriquez (28 points) and Karl Chan (23 points) won first and second place respectively.

This volume presents an in-depth study of the history of 20th century graphic design, covering the influences of major art movements, from cubism to Picasso and Magritte. The author explores the basic architecture of the printed page: form and function, symmetry and asymmetry and methods of dividing space. The text also explains how to combine word and image in a layout to achieve effective communication using typography, photography and illustrative techniques. The book concludes with a discussion of the psychology of perception and illusion – how we respond to what we see and how the process of communication works. Allan Hurlburt is the author of “The Design Concept” and “Photo/Graphic Design”.

I was staring at this poster while tsiboging at burger king earlier today. Insomnia has it perks it says. Quite insensitive if you ask me. Insomnia is a disorder and millions suffer with the pesky “I”.

Imagine other products having that line of marketing thought… like “arthritis has its benefits” … “catarata is awesome” etc.

I for one had insomnia some years back, albeit a milder type.  I can’t sleep. I even resorted (not snorted) to the effects of Neozep. Basta humatsing ako ng 3x sa gabi, it Neozep time! Being awake and not truly functional, you can’t always think right, pimples left and right, darker and bigger eyebags resulting to “syet kamuka ko na syota mo” feeling.

And, sometimes those who suffer from insomnia more often, they suffer from the primary disorder like psycho problems, personal problem, or even physical problem, effect lang ang insomnia. So, it’s a serious matter Mr. Burger King! And that tag line aint witty.

The next time I visit your chain and I still see that, I’ll report you to DSWD, ke dinkly soliman.

Fun pics, icons and celebs “avatarized”…

See Bono, Will Smith, Mr. Bean into the blue. Here.

Who says I’m anti-Kobe? This pair of Kobe sandals were a belated birthday gift from my wife. I really wanted it. The tag price is P1,500. Also shown in the picture is my Kobe basketball shoes and All-Star pouch bag.

Today is Feb 25. EDSA day.

People Power Day.

A coup d’etat supported-by-the-church-and-people-day.

A jolly-jumping-Fidel-day.

Cory Day.

Ninoy Day.

Dyosko-day. For us, today is an ordinary working day.

And… ang panata ko today, mag-post ng something yellow pics from our stock photos.

BTW, a leader can’t do much to save the pearl of the orient. Mapa-tycoon o gumanap ng goon. Mapa anak ng bayani or si Bayani mismo. Mapa-bata ni Gloria or isang isip bata.It’s us individually who can make it happen. Promises are cheap.

Noy?

Erap?

Villar?

Gibo?

Gordon?

I’ll spell “suffrage.” Capital S – U – F – F – E – R.

Real people power is the answer.

Work hard, obey the laws, employ people, be productive, work-at-home, work-at-office, spend some pesos to rev up trade, invest on stocks, refrain from those useless demonstrations, print t-shirts, be creative and sell your ideas, be a start-up dot com mogul, open up a massage spa, do banking, open up a grocery store, do business, pay taxes.

I FUCKIN DON’T EXPECT MUCH FROM THE NEXT PRESIDENT. HE DOESN’T MATTER MUCH.
