Petron Blaze Boosters' Road To The Finals

A not so successful first two conference of PBA's 38th season for the Petron Blaze Boosters. Many fans and non-fans are wondering why this team, with a lot of talented players, is having a hard time getting the Championship.

The season started with Olsen Racela as Head coach, in replacement to Ato Agustin. The 1st and 3rd pick, June Mar Fajardo and Alex Mallari, also belong to Petron. The roster also consists of Arwind Santos, Alex Cabagnot, Denok Miranda, Chico Lanete, Dorian Peña, Danny Ildefonso, Jay Washington, Ronald Tubid, Joseph Yeo, Chris Lutz, Marcio Lassiter and Magi Sison.

McSpicy?

Last Thursday, June 13 (if I'm not mistaken), I saw Ramon Bautista, Xian Lim and other celebrities on Twitter posting pictures with McDonalds' new addition to their product line. Its name, McSpicy, caught my attention as I am into spicy foods. On the other end, we're expecting a Zinger-like burger.

So after office yesterday, June 14, we went to McDonalds at New Glorietta to have a taste of it. Result: I am satisfied with the taste and spiciness, it is manageable. No need to upsize your drinks. However, it is smaller (as expected) than what we see on advertisements.

So if you want to try McDonalds' new offering, go to the nearest McDonalds' store or dial 8-6236 (8-MCDO). Only P80 (ala carte).

Mobile Internet charges by Sun Cellular

I have my Blackberry phone since last year, a free phone I got from Globe. Last December 2012 I decided to switch my Sun and Globe SIM. My BB is now Sun connected. I also have a Smart Bro Pocket WiFi and I'm using it to access different social networking sites. Last January 6, 2013 I decided to avail of the Sun Blackberry Service P649 (Unlimited Mobile Internet). I inquire for my unbilled charges and to my surprise, it cost P1,800+. Then last January 9, morning, my line was cut. I cannot send SMS and can't even call.
 
Of course I immediately call Sun customer service. They told me that my line was cut because my outstanding balance exceeds my Credit Limit. That is also because of the Mobile internet charges my account incurred. I told them that I am not using Sun mobile internet service. I have my Pocket WiFi. They explained that if the WiFi connection fluctuates, mobile internet service, having GPRS turned on, will be the internet provider. I send them an E-mail complaint regarding the matter. After a week, they send me a message that according to their investigation the charges are valid. I told them that I'm not going to pay the charges I did not use. I received a call (Jan.18) from Sun CS. She told me they're going to reverse the charges but that is a one-time accommodation only. She gave me an option to turn off the GPRS to avoid the same incident. Since I have an Android phone I decided to turn off GPRS of my Sun SIM.
 
This is the first time I experience this but this is not the first time I heard of this complaint from a Sun subscriber. I'm not sure if there's anyone who has the same complaint.

110 lbs = 50 kg


Yes. Almost everybody knows that. The question is what is the significant meaning of it that I am now writing a post?
