There’s a new product from Kopiko, a brand II used to know to be a brand of coffee flavored candy and a few years ago released their instant 3 in 1 coffee. And today I discovered their new brand, the Kopiko brown coffee. Like their previous 3 in one coffee, it has instant coffee, creamer & sugar the only different is that the new one uses brown sugar. Others said after tasting it, that it is better than the old product. And taste like caramel. Personally, I can prove that it is better than their other product.

As of this writing there would only be 5 weekes before the big night.
Who do you think would be the lucky one to take home the grand prize?even the runner ups..?
For me,think Jason and Melai would make it up to that big night.The “karisma” is so big even thought we can see a lot of mistakes they have inside the big brother house,esp. Jason,that had been nominated few times before.Their Melason team-up makes the pinoy televiewers smilling after the show.
“The Hunks” of the house are also stronger,let’s face it more girl are active in this kind of activity or show.text and showing their support that boys.It was visible that more votes for this boys came from girls.That saves them from staying inside…
Michael Jackson’s Death a Homicide
Posted by: admin in Current Events, News and Current Events, Scandal and Controversy, Showbiz and Entertainment on August 25th, 2009
Michael Jackson’s Death Ruled a Homicide – MJ Had Lethal Levels of Propofol.
The Los Angeles coroner’s office ruled Michael Jackson’s death a homicide and an unsealed warrant said the singer had a lethal dose of the anesthetic propofol in his body when he died, the Associated Press reports.
Jackson’s personal physician, Dr. Conrad Murray, told officers that he was treating the singer for insomnia for about six weeks and had been giving Jackson 50 milligrams of propofol every night intravenously, according to the search warrant affidavit, which was obtained by the Los Angeles Times.
Bomb scare at NYC LaGuardia Airport
Posted by: admin in Current Events on August 1st, 2009
News about bomb scare at NYC LaGuardia Airport are all over the internet today.. Here are some of the hottest news!
LaGuardia Airport’s central terminal was evacuated Saturday after a Manhattan kook was busted with a fake bomb in his bag, authorities said.
The NYPD Bomb Squad investigated, and it turned out the suspect had a bunch of batteries taped together to look like dynamite with wires sticking out, sources said.
But the damage was done.
After the 6 a.m. scare, thousands of passengers were rushed out of the concourse and even herded off planes waiting to take off on the runway.
Flights in and out of the airport were grounded indefinitely, and air traffic across the country was expected to be delayed as a result.
Richard Bock, 59, a Gramercy Park psychologist had been waiting to get on a plane with his wife and 7-year-old daughter to fly to a wedding in Milwaukee.
“All we know is that they told us to get out of the airport.” Bock said. “Someone told me to exit the terminal and run. Then I saw all the fire and police trucks coming, and we’ve been told all our flights will be delayed.”
Michael Joseph, 29, of Mamaroneck was on the tarmac on a Southwest Airlines plane, heading to Chicago for his sister’s 2 p.m. wedding.
“They said they had a [Transportation Security Administration] emergency and we had to evacuate. People were very confused.”
Bruce Rossmeyer Harley-Davidson motorcycle mogul, died today
Posted by: admin in Current Events, Sports on July 30th, 2009
Bruce Rossmeyer, famous for his empire totaling 15 Harley-Davidson dealerships, died today doing what he loved: riding his motorcycle.
Let me repeat that in a different way:
Bruce Rossmeyer, America’s largest Harley Davidson dealer and well regarded supporter and sponsor of the motorcycle community was killed earlier today in an motorcycle accident in Wyoming.
Rossmeyer was riding in a group of five motorcyclists when they attempted to pull pass a SUV with a trailer. Rossmeyer was the last in line and was killed when the SUV turned left in front of him.
Rossmeyer came late to the motorcycle community, opening his first Harley dealership after “retiring” from the car industry in 1994. He success came quickly with new dealerships opened and acquired, allowing Rossmeyer to become a well known supporter and sponsor of motorcycle community events.
Among others, Rossmeyer sponsored the Buell team that fields Danny Eslick in the AMA Pro Daytona SportBike class, and he also founded events such as Biketoberfest in Daytona.

Posted by: admin in Current Events, News and Current Events, Showbiz and Entertainment on June 25th, 2009
The legendary King of Pop, Michael Jackson died Thursday in his Los Angeles home. According to reports, Michael Jackson died of a cardiac arrest, which is ironic since his promoters said that Michael Jackson passed a long and hard of series of health test because he is getting ready for a series of concert in Europe, particularly in London. He was suppose to have a series of comeback concerts.
The circumstances of his death were not immediately clear. Jackson was not breathing when Los Angeles Fire Department paramedics responded to a call at his Los Angeles home about 12:30 p.m., Capt. Steve Ruda told the Los Angeles Times. The paramedics performed CPR and took him to UCLA Medical Center, Ruda told the newspaper.
Hundreds of people gathered outside the hospital as word of his death spread. The emergency entrance at the UCLA Medical Center, which is near Jackson’s rented home, was roped off with police tape.
“Ladies and gentlemen, Michael Jackson has just died,” a woman boarding a Manhattan bus called out shortly after the news was announced. Immediately many riders reached for their cell phones.

Douglas Quijano Died, Found Dead in Home
Posted by: admin in Current Events on June 12th, 2009
Douglas Quijano Passed Away today June 13, 2009.. Douglas Quijano is well known as the manager of well known local stars such as Jomari Yllana, John Estrada, and Richard Gomez to name a few.
MANILA, Philippines – Renowned movie and television talent manager Douglas Quijano died early Saturday, 12 days before his birthday. He was 64.
Veteran TV host and long-time friend German Moreno said in an interview aired over Q’s Balitanghali that Quijano was found dead on his bed at his rest house in Lucban, Quezon province at about 10 a.m.
The reason for his death has yet to be confirmed but Moreno speculated that it might have been because of a heart attack.
“Ang nasabi lang sa akin, si Douglas walang bawal sa kinakain, isa siguro ‘yun sa reasons bakit hindi siya nag-ingat sa kakainin [I was told that there were no restrictions on what Douglas could eat, which could be the reason why he wasn’t careful with what he ate],” he said.
Lucy Torres-Gomez, one of Quijano’s talents, said in a separate interview that Quijano was actually diabetic.
“Nag-alala kami lagi sa eating habits niya kasi diabetic siya. The last two years, regular na siyang nagpapa-checkup [We were worried of his eating habits because he was diabetic. During the last two years, he has been regularly having checkups],” she said.
Moreno and Gomez said that Quijano’s death was a big loss for the movie and television industry.
“ Nakakalungkot din kasi marami siyang tinutulungang artista. Malaki ang kontribusyon niya sa industriya [It’s sad because he helps so many artists. He contributes a lot to the industry,” said Moreno.
“In the industry, he’s well-liked, he’s well-loved,” added Gomez.
No details have yet to be released regarding Quijano’s wake but Moreno said that he was sure many of the manager’s talents are already making arrangements.
Despite being known for having developed plenty of stars, there is little information about Quijano on the Internet. Even in the Philippine Entertainment Portal, the only vital information available is that he was born on July 25. – Kimberly Jane Tan, GMANews.TV
