How to extend the life of your UPS?

I will tell you a secret that no UPS seller would tell you.  Here is the neat trick to extend the life of your UPS: UNPLUG IT WHEN YOU'RE NOT USING THE COMPUTER.  But isn't that contrary to what is written in the intruction manual.  EXACTLY.  The explanation behind is quite simple - the unit will continue to charge if you keep it plug all the time and that will eventually destroy the battery because the battery is already fully charged.  In addition, you need to discharged the unit at least twice a year before charging it to keep it in good contition.  Don't forget to HIT THANKS if this helps :)

Loren Legarda's Beauty Secret Finally Revealed

Have you ever wondered what is Loren Legarda's beauty secret?  Just want to share photos of Sen. Loren Legarda BEFORE and AFTER she became a SENATOR.  Did you notice a difference in the contour of her face as well as the shape of her eyes and mouth?  Moreover, I would like to manifest also that she seems look younger now than before. So what do you think is her beauty secret?  No, not PONDS, DOVE or OLAY, SILLY!  I don't want to speculate but it doesn't take a genius to figure out that she went under the knife (of course at the expense of taxpayers!) Hell, who doesn't want to become a senator someday?  I don't know about you but not me (hehehe) :)


As Adolf Hitler once said, "IT IS FORTUNATE FOR LEADERS THAT THE MASSES DO NOT THINK."

How to tell if your wife's or girlfriend's baby is from another man?

If your having doubts on your wife or girlfriend, the easiest way to determine if the baby is yours or not is through a DNA test.  But if you don't have the budget at your disposal, you may still determine (more or less) if you are the parent through blood typing (though it may not be 100% accurate as there are several outcomes).  It's very simple.  All you have to do is determine your blood type, your your wife's or girlfriend's blood type and the baby's blood type and match to the chart below:


Type O + Type O Type O
Type O + Type A           Type O, A
Type O + Type B Type O, B
Type O + Type AB         Type A, B
Type A + Type A Type O, A
Type A + Type B Type O, A, B, AB
Type B + Type B Type O, B
Type A + Type AB          Type A, B, AB
Type B + Type AB          Type A, B, AB
Type AB + Type AB        Type A, B, AB

A word of advice:  ALWAYS keep an eye on wife or girlfriend to be sure you don't encounter this kind of problem.

Mang Insal Chicken

PROS: Mang Inasal offers a wide array of delectable, mouth-watering and affordable dishes in their menu that will surely tickle your tastebuds.

CONS: Just take a look at the picture of the chicken thigh above and tell me that it's not OVERCOOKED.  DAMN! It's a common knowledge that charred meat has a BITTER aftertaste not to mention the fact that it contains benzopyrene which is carcinogenic. No offence though because their chicken really taste great but the people in the kitchen need to control the heat and constantly flip the chicken so it won't get burned.


RATING: 5 out of 10

Nissin Ramen Seafood

PROS: Nissin Seafood Ramen is the next best thing to eating a real ramen in Japan.  Its unique flavor comes from not only from the ingredients but also from the special noodles used by Nissin.  It is also very easy to prepare - you could choose to add water and wait for 2 minutes or boil for 3 minutes.   

CONS:  Containts MSG, Hyrolized Soy Protein and 4.5 g of saturated fat or 23% of daily value so eat in MODERATION.

Where to report defective products?

Christmas is certainly the merriest time of the year not only because of the binges on food and drinks but also because of the presents that we receive.  Here in the Philippines, Christmas in the Philippines does not end until Jan. 6 (Feast of the Three Kings) or even Chinese New Year.  By now most of you have already received your gifts from ninongs/ninangs and exchange gifts but what if the gift you receive turns out to be defective or starts malfunctioning?  Don't fret though.  Consumers are entitled to have defective or malfunctioning item replaced as long as it occured within the warranty period and there is no fault or negligence the part of the consumer (RA 7394 THE CONSUMER ACT OF THE PHILIPPINES).  If the seller refuses to replace the item, you can file a complaint at the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) thru their call center hotline (+632) 751.3330, (+63917) 834.3330 Office Hours : (GMT+8) 8:00AM - 5:00PM Monday to Friday.

Always remember this:  CAVEAT EMPTOR!
