Christmas got sabotage for E.R. Ejercito’s Asiong Salonga movie

SQ Laboratories can’t give E.R. Ejercito justifications why the prints are delayed whereas they promised E.R. that it all be done by December 23.

It is very wrong that they prioritized the bigger productions that entered the MMFF (Metro Manila Film Festival) 2011, if you promised someone a deadline go meet that deadline.

Manila Kingpin: The Asiong Salonga Story is a entry along with other bigger productions like Panday 2, Enteng ng Ina mo, and House Husband.

According to Yahoo! News (http://ph.omg.yahoo.com/news/e-r–ejercito-slams-delayed-release-of-%E2%80%98asiong%E2%80%99-prints.html)

“We contracted SQ Laboratories to be the supplier for the prints. We both agreed to have the prints ready by December 23 in time for logistics of the materials for the December 25, 2011, which is the first day of MMFF screening. However, due to their load with other 4 more festival entries, we were the least priority and last to be printed. To my dismay, the laboratory misinformed us about the completion of the prints, and the last minute transfer of laboratory was necessary to produce as many prints as possible. Unfortunately, despite the delivery of the prints to the theaters, the cinemas have already replaced our theater with another movie. This is already beyond our control.”

Meanwhile, when contacted on the phone, SQ Laboratories Business Development Manager Dennis Silvestre told Yahoo! Philippines OMG! that Santos was out of town with his family.

Ouch I say…

I know issues like this wouldn’t be given much attention to the masses… even these MMFF entries will be converted to CD/DVD’s soon. Pirated copies will be out faster though, to hell with you pirates.

The First Automated Philippine Election 2010

The count started with the use of the controversial Precinct Count Optical Scanner. The two major news network in the Philippines (ABS-CBN) and GMA Network helped the masses monitor the tallying records of the election. It is said that in 3 days time we will see the results unlike in manual voting that last for over a month to count.

To know the partial counting you can visit the following:
GMA Network (Partial Unofficial Poll Tally) – http://www.gmanews.tv/eleksyon2010/nationalcount

Notes: So far it is said that Philippine Election 2010 is the most peaceful election in comparison with the previous elections the Philippines had in spite of the violent incidents happening in Mindanao. Also the most notable incident recently is the Cavite Shootout in Baccoor Police Station, I hope no more will happen.

3-hour brownouts schedule by Meralco for Thursday

Power distributor Manila Electric Co. (Meralco) announced another series of brownouts on Thursday, some of which may take place anytime until nine o’ clock this evening.

But instead of lasting three hours — as previously announced earlier the same day — electricity cutoffs in its service area will only last for two hours, the company said in an announcement posted at its website.

http://www.meralco.com.ph/Consumer/news/meralco_NW01910.html

Earlier in the day, the company said it was going to implement three-hour rotating brownouts, citing problems in the 1,200-megawatt Ilijan Power Plant in Batangas City owned by Kepco.

“Medyo mas hindi maganda ang sitwasyon natin ngayon. Batay sa information na binigay sa aming system control center mula sa system operator which is the National Grid Corporation of the Philippines, 800 megawatts ang kakulangan for today,” Meralco telecommunications manager Joe Zaldarriaga said in an interview on Unang Hirit.

(Our situation today is worse than yesterday. Based on the info from NGCP, we are experiencing a power supply shortfall of 800 megawatts.)

Source: http://www.gmanews.tv/story/187943/meralco-schedules-2-hr-brownouts-for-thursday

The 3 Hour Rotational Brownout of Meralco listed the following affected areas:

METRO MANILA
BATANGAS
BULACAN
CAVITE
LAGUNA
PAMPANGA
QUEZON
RIZAL

Zaldarriaga said that problems experienced at the Ilijan Power Plant, as well as independent power producers undergoing preventive maintenance, worsened the shortfall from Sual, Sta. Rita modules, and Malaya power plants that caused the two-hour outages on Wednesday.

“At this point ang maibibigay lang talaga ng Meralco insofar as this is concerned is magbigay ng timely update. Hindi namin kontrolado ang generation and transmission,” he added.

(At this point, Meralco can only give timely updates because we have no control over power generation and transmission).

Zaldarriaga noted, however, that demand for power might decrease starting Friday, which is a holiday, and would continue until the weekend.

The affected areas, as posted on Meralco’s website include:

Main reason for the mandatory brownouts is that the supply of electricity is not sufficient at the moment. This is due to a lot of people are using electric fans and/or aircon to ease the heat of “El Nino Phenomenon”.
