Rationale behind the cost cap.
Believe it or not, the global crisis is once agian the deep culprit of this.  Difficult times would mean that costs spent for the Formula 1 race by the owners and sponsors are much likeley to be just in the “cost-to-cut” list. I think the FIA is worried to have a financially unhealthy track and thought of this budget cap to make the race stable. Though the FIA knows that the roots of the F1 race lies with the team’s freedom to tinker with the technicalities and strategize upon it, they believe that it must be done in a controlled and responsible environment watching innovation flourish within the teams without having to spend much. There are pros and cons to this cap and some of the teams would be happy and some would be not. Would it totally make a difference to the following years’ race?

If only I can afford to watch this I would! The city of Rome is perfect for me before, and even better, it will have F1 soon! It is NIRVANA! lol This should push through in 2012. That would be 3 years from now. Can I save for that trip in 3 years? lol … I don’t think so. I also hope they would have amber lounge there! Not that it would do me good if they have one there, unless, I would get invited. LOL I’m obviously dreaming…

I’m not a fan of coffee creamers and have always preferred milk with coffee. And that’s why cafe latte is one of my favorite hot drinks. Good thing that it’s a staple item in coffee shops.
One of the places I frequent whenever I’m craving for a latte is The Java Man. Their BF Paranaque branch […]

Lace is the lady behind this. I first met Lace during the Clean and Clear black night party. Every event which involve TV personalities, she always grabs the chance to interview them about their fashion and beauty secrets. I’m a big fan of her blog, in fact, I did not hesitate to ask her a question about beauty through email, and I am glad that she gave me a very helpful response, so Stlye and Relax.

I love drinking Avocado shakes, but many friends tell me that it’s unhealthy. They say it has high cholesterol and fat content.
Well, I’m not giving up eating guacamole and drinking avocado shakes that’s for sure. But just to be on the safe side, I tried to research on the health benefits and some nutrition facts […]

I love Avocado Shakes! It’s something that I try to enjoy once in awhile. And it’s a good thing that a local fruit store near our house sells ice blended avocado shakes.
So a few days ago, as I had nothing to do at home and feeling parched from the sunny weather. I decided to visit […]

We all know the advise that we should drink at least 8 glasses of water everyday. For most of us, we just follow this advise without really knowing the benefits of drinking water. Personally, it just feels good.
Anyway, I thought of doing a little research and I’ve discovered these ten benefits that drinking water will give our bodies. It’s just a simple list which I hope will make you appreciate drinking water more.
Drinking water helps you lose weight because it flushes down the by-products of fat breakdown.
Relieves fatigue, headache and back pains due to dehydration.
Drinking water reduces hunger, it’s an effective appetite suppressant so you’ll eat less.
You’ll look younger when your skin is properly hydrated.
Your brain is mostly made up of water, thus drinking water helps you think better.
Drinking water regulates your body temperature. You’ll feel more energetic when doing exercises and prevents heat strokes.
Drinking water raises your metabolism because […]

Going to Puerto Galera is not complete without tasting the Mindoro Sling. I already told my Puerta Galera adventure last Holy Week over at Patay Gutom that’s why I won’t say it anymore here.
However, what I’m going to give you now are the several Mindoro Sling recipes as given to me by my friends. If you have your own Mindoro Sling concoction, do share them below. Thanks.
Version 1:
1 lapad of Tanduay rhum
1 can of Gina’s Mango Nectar juice
1-1/2 jigger of Sunny Orange syrup
1-1/2 jigger calamansi concentrate
1 jigger Grenadine
1 can Sprite
Version 2:
1 big can of Dole Four Seasons Juice
1 bottle of Ginebra GSM
Version 3:
1 bottle of vodka
1/2 cup of triple sec
1 big can of pineapple-orange juice
1/2 cup of fresh squeezed lemon juice.
1 jigger Grenadine
Just mix everything and add lots of ice and top with fresh apple and orange slices. Drink moderately.

A few nights ago, I was craving for some ice blended chocolate. Although I could have made some myself with Milo, milk, sugar and crushed ice at home, I decided to just go out and have it at one of my favorite coffee shops, BoNa Coffee.
BoNa Coffee’s ice blended Belgian Chocolate Creme is really a guilty pleasure for me. Thick, sweet and creamy – just like how I like it.
Gourmet coffee shops don’t just sell coffee and ice blended drinks. They actually sell a lifestyle. In the case of BoNa Coffee, it’s the bohemian lifestyle that marks this place distinct.
Every time I go to BoNa Coffee, there is always a sense of community that you feel inside. Quiet conversations, candid laughs and an artistic ambiance is what makes me come back to this place often.
Of course, there’s also free WiFi – but that’s another story. Do check out BoNa Coffee’s […]

Just last month, i wrote a blog entry about my experience as a participant at iBlog3 and iBlog4. It was through the blogging summit where i met other bloggers and at the same time learn from the speakers.
Mica and AJ by Arbet
Â
Last Saturday, AJ and I gave a talk on the Basics of Blogging or simply Blogging 101. Ms. Janette asked me if I wanted to speak for the newbies. I was a bit worried since err… I have a slight phobia on speaking onstage. I then realized that this is a perfect chance for me to overcome that fear and at the same time share my  ideas on blogging.

I rejoiced when I found out that AJ, the hottest gay blogger in the world, is my partner for the talk. We were both busy with our respective careers (charot!) that’s why we only managed […]
