Number 1 at the Google SERP

I tried googling the " Naked Pinoy " and I was happy for the result. This blog is number 1 in the SERP when searching for the keyword mentioned above in the Philippine website of Google. This is a good thing, considering that this blog is just hosted by Google's Blogger.

Underworld Scandal

The Underworld Scandal . Returning for their final film in the Big Town series, crusading newspaper editor Steve Wilson (Reed) and his girl Friday Lorelei Kilbourne (Brooke) come to the aid of wayward teenage boys by paroling them under his care. Steve attempts to set up jobs and a Youth Center for the boys, putting five of them on a basketball team. However, local gangsters soon use the center to hide their ill-gotten gains and try to throw a basketball match with the boys, aided by one of the boys, Tommy. After one of Tommy's fellow miscreants is killed, Tommy amends his ways and helps put the gangsters away for good with Steve and Lorelei's help. Look for former Our Gang members "Alfalfa" Switzer and Tommy "Butch" Bond as two of the teenage hoodlums. This product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media. Amazon.com's standard return policy will apply.

The Royal Scandal

Sherlock Holmes has been portrayed in at least 3 iconic series of films and TV productions: those of Wontner, Rathbone, and (best of all) Brett. Matt Frewer is known for his rather manic and off-kilter characters and characterizations. We might expect, therefore, that his performance of Holmes might treat the twilit (sic) lands between Baker Street and Bedlam. In this, he doesn't disappoint. Anyone interested in purchasing this sitem should, however, be aware that it isn't exactly a new issue. It was originally part of a 4-item collection known appropriately as "The Sherlock Holmes Collection". Alas, this appears to be available through Amazon only from resllers and as of this writing at a rather excessive price. However, there are no doubt other sources, including used-DVD outlets (at one of which O secured my copy. The third film in this collection is the current item, The Royal Scandal . This is actually a melding of "A Scandal in Bohemia" and "The B

Scandal in Paris

About Scandal in Paris: Suave, sardonic George Sanders eases through one of his most perfectly suited roles in this sly Douglas Sirk comedy, based on the (highly questionable) remembrances of real-life French rascal turned respected lawman and author Vidoq. Sanders plays his aristocratic thief with a blasé attitude and bemused smile. Born in a jail (his home for most of his life, as it turns out), he cons his way up from the gutter to high society. He rechristens himself with a name purloined from a fancy graveyard headstone and lands a position as the Paris chief of police after an elaborate display of Sherlock Holmesian deduction uncovers a cache of jewels stolen from his patron's house (jewels he stole himself, of course). It puts him in the perfect place to plot his biggest caper ever: cleaning out the Bank of Paris. Akim Tamiroff plays his croaking sidekick (a frog to Sanders's prince of crime, or perhaps more accurately a dragon to the sneaky St. George), and Gene Lockha

Images of Naked Children Removed from StreetView

It was reported that Google is forced to remove all the images showing the naked children at the Google Street View: The Independent on Sunday alerted the internet search giant after finding images of the toddlers, playing at a family summer picnic in a garden square in north London, captured permanently on the revolutionary mapping system. Britain's privacy watchdog, the Information Commissioner Richard Thomas, is considering an investigation into Google if more images of naked children are found to have been picked up by its cameras and made available.

New SSS Inquiry Website

Members of the Social Security System (Philippines) are now complaining for the worst website that the SSS system administration put online in place of the old SSS website. Not only is the server of this website is worst but also the design of it on how the members can register online. A blogger has put also his own SSS Inquiry Online blog where he compiled the complaints posted by the SSS members in different blogs.

Notes on a Scandal

Gold stars to all for this taut psychological thriller based on Zoe Heller's novel that that gets more insidiously twisted as it unfolds. Oscar-nominated for her chilling performance, Dame Judi Dench gives a master class as schoolteacher Barbara Covett, a frumpy, friendless, and flinty spinster who lives with her cat. A formidable presence, Barbara is standoffish with colleagues and not one for students to trifle with (not that they'd dare). Cate Blanchett, also an Oscar nominee and winner of several critics society awards for her impassioned performance, costars as Sheba Hart, the new, overwhelmed art teacher who first becomes enthrall to Barbara after she steps in to help Sheba discipline unruly students. Barbara cultivates a friendship, and insinuates herself into Sheba's chaotic life, which includes her older husband (Bill Nighy), teenage daughter, and a son with Down's syndrome. Then, Barbara catches the reckless Sheba in a compromising position with a 15-year-old
