Breaking the Language Barrier


 

I was able to watch the movie “National Treasure” yesterday. I have been very interested in watching this movie because it will not only stir your analytic skills, but it will also help you understand other languages and symbolism. I have enjoyed the journey with Ben Gates as he explores different languages and symbols in pursuit of a mythical treasure that has been passed down from one generation to another.

As I am watching the movie, I’ve been with Ben Gates deciphering words and translating words from other languages to English. Good thing I was able to find a good translation service

online that is very precise and reliable. I was so amazed how it exactly translates the phrases in order to find out the next clue towards the city of Gold.

There are a lot of translation services

online, but this is the only service that offers clear translation. The quality of translation is superb, there is no other translation services online offers a good quality. You can also get your translation at your desired time. You can get it as quick as possible.

As Ben Gates found the city of gold, I also found the best language translation service

in the internet. From now on, I will use this tool to break the language barrier.

Britney Spears Beats Ashton Kutcher on Twitter

 

Ashton Kutcher has proclaimed itself as the King of All Social Media after beating CNN to a million followers on Twitter. He remains to be a leader in terms of the total number of fans on the social media site and he has his own share of celebration over that fact.

However, things are changing now. Britney Spears ousts Ashton Kutcher on his throne just today bearing up 4,950,699-4,944,227 lead.

Kutcher, on his twitter response said that he doesn’t care for this anyway. In his Twitter response he wrote:

"2nd most pop Q ‘What do U think about Brittney having more followers than u?’ Answer ‘I don’t care. Aren’t u suppose 2B a movie reporter?’"

Britney Spears on the other hand is enjoying her reign in Twitter. She wrote:

"WOW!!!!! #1 on Twitter! Thank you! Tweet me some questions this morning! xoxo -Brit"

Well, this is not surprising at all. Britney Spears has a lot of fans and is a bigger star compared to Ashton Kutcher.

For now, let’s give the floor to Britney Spears and let her hit it baby one more time.

No More Megan Fox on Transformers 3


 

It’s final; Megan Fox will not join the casting of Transformers 3 anymore. Her role in Transformers franchise made her an international sex symbol.

So what will happen to the love team up with Shia Labeouf?

The team behind Transformers 3 is finalizing a script to team up Shia Labeouf with a new love interest. How will it happen? Well, let’s wait for the movie to come out.

Megan Fox shared an intermittently antagonistic working experience with Michael Bay, the film director. She even called the film director as “Hitler” because she doesn’t like Bay’s style of directing the film.

Michael Bay on the other hand takes his revenge by removing Megan Fox as one of the cast for Transformer 3. Her character Michaela will be killed in the movie.

As of now, the team behind Transformer 3 is looking for a replacement. Possible replacement could be the “Prince of Persia” star Gemma Arterton. The names such as Bar Rafaeli, Miranda Kerr and Brooklyn Decker are on the list.

 It could be a different Transformers without Megan Fox, but whoever will replace her in the movie, we just hope for the best.

Say Goodbye to “HEROES”


After four seasons of thrilling and entertaining scenes, the hit program HEROES finally comes to an end. The TV series has finally floundered after four seasons.

The fourth season of HEROES has been concluded last February 2010. NBC management announced to the public that there will be no more HEROES to come. That would be the last season for this TV series. The NBC bosses are planning to end the said show with a short mini-series or movie.

The TV series Heroes audience is declining, they tried to rejuvenate it but they weren’t able to save the show. Aside from Heroes, the TV series Law & Orders has been axed out in the TV network.

Heroes star Zachary Quinto has reached out to all his fans regarding this surreal decision from the network.  He emotionally shared his thought regarding this cancellation in his official page.

“yesterday nbc announced that heroes is officially cancelled.  as much as we have been aware of this possibility for a few weeks – it remains surreal to consider that the decision has been made.  the action has been taken.  and this chapter (or volume) is really over for all of us who worked on the show – and for all of you who watched it.  i want to extend myself in a huge swell of gratitude to all of the fans.  for investing in the stories we told.  for engaging in the characters we created.  and for standing by us through all the ups and downs of what was at times a rocky road.  your commitment enriched the experience for all of us – and i know that we will always be grateful for your enthusiasm.”

To the casts and crews of Heroes, thank you for giving life to the Heroes characters that have become a household name for some of us. You may not able to save the show, but you had surely put justice on it.

Showbiz Personalities Who Won and Lost in the 2010 Philippine Election

 

 

 

 

Local Celebrities aspiring for a position in the government is very common in the Philippine politics. They said to have an advantage against their opponents because they possess the fame needed to get the votes. But credibility-wise, not all celebrities possess the quality of a good leader.

One proof of this is the result of the May 10, 2010 election. The 2010 election is said to be start studded because celebrity-politicians are in from the highest position to the lowest position. If election is a movie, we can have a complete cast from President to Municipal Councilor.

Justine Bieber Falls behind #halalan on Twitter Trending Topic


 

A new record on twitter has been set in the Philippine history. The coverage of 2010 Election in the Philippines brought the hashtag “halalan” on the third spot on the Twitter Trending topic on May 10, 2010 at 4:05 pm.

The 16 year old singer Justine Bieber moved to the 7th spot to give way to a hotter topic which is the ongoing election in the Philippines. The hashtag #halalan is expected to attract more Twitter users as the election has become the hottest topic in the Philippines.

This just simply means that like any other nationalities, Filipino people are also active in Social Networking sites like FaceBook and Twitter. It also shows that media like ABS-CBN have strong influence to youth. They were able to persuade the youth to participate and become wary of their votes.

The word “Halalan” by the way means election. This is the title of ABS-CBN’s coverage on the first ever automated election in the Philippines.

Shoe Enthusiasts? Shop at ShopWiki!

On the dawn of Wikipedia, more and more wiki-related sites have emerged. The reign of the Wikis have finally arrived! ShopWiki

is one of these sites which is expected to hit the charts soon. It is typically a regular search engine but more concentrated on shopping and aids and helps consumers and customers find the right product and the right online merchant on the Internet with just a few clicks. It has a sophisticated web-crawling technology that pushes to the current boundaries of optimized search engine techniques.

The concept of using ShopWiki is that you search a specific product and then it will show you various models and brands of the product you have chosen with their corresponding prices. For example, to search for sneakers

, you can go to the search box above the page and then it would direct you to the page you’re looking for. Then the user clicks on “See All Stores” which eventually displays all the online merchants that are selling that specific product you have chosen. Furthermore, some features allow you to sort by lowest to highest price per store or even select a product on a specific price range. The site even shows the most popular searched items and brands, which are mostly electronic-based.

If you’re really a shoes enthusiast, particularly for example sporty type, you can type “sport shoes"; or you are brand and model conscious, you can narrow your choices immediately by typing running shoes

which redirects you to http://www.shopwiki.com/wiki/Running+Shoes. These are just some of the combination you can use with the shopper-addictive and very convenient site.
