Pinay Scandal

The Pinay Scandal campaign has been successful for few years already. A lot of bloggers' post about it are in the top pages of the search engine result pages, especially that of Google.

Now, there has been rumors that the initiator of the campaign is calling his followers to delete their Pinay Scandal posts.

Well, the Pinay Scandal campaign was started to wage war against those webmasters who are selling adult materials featuring Filipinas. Filipina is actually a slang term used to call women in the Philippines.

Now, after hundreds of bloggers joined the campaign, some benefited from it by getting traffic from those who are looking for scandalous materials.

But take note that those who are accepted in the campaign are those blogposts which are clean and for general audiences. Those who are giving links to real adult websites are rejected in the campaign.

They said that one of the participants were penalized by Google because of his post about the campaign.

But do they really know the real cause of it?

I have a friend who participated the campaign and whose blog was penalized by Google. I checked its content and I found out that it should be penalized because the way it is written seems promoting the real scandalous materials.

So, how can we avoid the penalty of Google? Simple. Just revise your content into a kind that general audience can read it. Don't talk about the scandalous act. Don't even give links to real adult websites.

In that way, you can gain from the Pinay Scandal traffic and at the same time avoids the penalty from Google.

Riebeek-Kasteel, Jewel of the Swartland

Home - About Me

A visit to the picturesque town of Riebeek-Kasteel, north of Cape Town, will provide you with a truly unique South African experience. Simply follow the N7 out of the city and once you've reached Malmesbury, follow the sign-posts to this quaint one-horse-town. Barely an hour's drive from the city, the village is situated against the slopes of the Kasteelberg (Castle Mountain), in the heart of the Swartland region.

Apart from the natural beauty of the Riebeek valley and the dramatic surrounds of the Swartland mountains, there are many attractions to visit in the area. The Swartland is well known for it's superb wines and olives and Riebeek-Kasteel and the surrounding valley is a perfect example of its fruitfulness.

Situated right at the entrance to the village, is Kloovenburg - a beautiful Cape Dutch estate with excellent wines and olive products. Park under the century-old oak trees and visit the Kloovenburg cellar for a taste of their world-class produce. Here, wine maker Pieter du Toit produces outstanding red wines and the estate is especially well-known for its first-rate Shiraz. Du Toit's wife, Annalene is the olive expert and is responsible for the estate's superlative olive oil which recently won the "Migliore Olio Extravergine di Oliva - Fruttato Intenso" award in Italy for the best certified quality olive oil in the world. Some of her other superb olive products include olive tapenade, olive jam, delicious black olives in blue-berry vinegar and a range of olive beauty products.

Around the corner from the legendary Kloovenburg, en route to the center of town, stop at the intriguing Cape Francolin Art Hotel. Here owner David Bellamy and his dog Clive, present their hotel as a living work of art. The property is an eccentric mix of cosy accommodation, off-beat installations, various found objects, serious art and formal exhibition space, and the hotel's permanent collection even include works by such esteemed international artists as Damien Hirst, Wolfgang Tillmans and Jean Cocteau. Have a cup of tea in the old barn, beautifully restored as the "Stoep D'amour" or witness artists-in-residence producing their work on site. Various artworks as well as lights, wrought iron sculptures and ceramics are for sale. The hotel also hosts a once-a-month, seven-course supper club influenced by the recipes of legendary South African writer and cook, C. Louis Leipoldt. If you're not around for one of these special evenings, simply buy a jar of "the best home-made strawberry jam in the world".

Opposite the enigmatic Cape Francolin, pop in at the Olive Boutique where they promise the "Ultimate Olive Experience". A wide variety of olives, olive oils and pastes as well as cosmetic products, are available. Or watch the olive press making real olive oil.

Take a turn to the right, a couple of hundred metres down the road from here, and you'll find yourself in the heart of the village. Here you can relax for a cup of coffee at Cafe Oppie Square where delicious breakfasts and other "country fare" like home-made bread, hearty soups, and confectionery is served. An enclosed garden makes it the perfect spot for families with children. For a slightly more formal atmosphere head to the beautiful Cape Victorian homestead of the Kasteelberg Inn. It's beautiful thick walls, wooden floors and fireplace makes it a perfect winter location.

On the way to the neighbouring town of Riebeek Wes, Allesverloren Wine Estate is famous for its full-bodied red wines such as Touriga Nacional, Tinta Barocca, Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon. The estates also produces a legendary Port wine. On the other side of the village, heading towards the nearby hamlet of Hermon, you'll find Riebeek Cellars where a wide variety of locally produced red and white wines are available. Drawing on centuries of Huguenot wine-making tradition, Riebeek cellars produce wines of exceptional quality, catering for a wide market with their range of extremely affordable wines.

Back in the village, L'Attitude pub and restaurant is the perfect location for a lazy afternoon beer or late night drinks. If you stay late enough you might just find yourself partying with a bunch of friendly, eccentric locals. For a quieter option, try the charming Victorian-style pub of The Travelers Rest. Another Riebeek-Kasteel icon is the recently renovated Royal Hotel. This 150-year old establishment now boasts a four star rating as well as a brand new restaurant, pub, conference center and amphitheater.

Whether you're a discerning wine-lover or fanatical about olives, head to Riebeek-Kasteel for a relaxing weekend away from the hustle and bustle of the city, or a day trip of wining, dining and true South African hospitality.

Monaco Grand Prix - Jewel Of The F1 Crown

Home - About Me

No other race in the F1 calendar has the glamour, the history or the incredible atmosphere of Monaco. Unarguably the most attractive location in F1, the race which takes place around Monte Carlo's two mile 'Circuit de Monaco' is widely considered to be one of the most important and prestigious motor sport races in the world.

Each year, thousands of people descend on the small principality of Monaco, and the luxury hotels that dot the area swell with F1 fans. The race also attracts royalty, Hollywood stars, supermodels and multi-millionaires who all want to see, and been seen at, this prestigious event.

The race takes place along the narrow streets of Monte Carlo, rather than on a purpose built track. The circuit is unique in the F1 world, in that it remains unchanged each year. Taking six weeks to erect, it includes many elevation changes, tight corners and narrow sections, which make it one of the most demanding tracks in F1. Due to the tight, twisting nature of the circuit, the race favours the skill of the driver, rather than the power of the cars, and is therefore regarded as one of the most prestigious races to win.

Much of the attraction of Monaco is down to its stunning setting, reflected by the fact that it is one of Europe's leading tourist resorts. Monaco lies in a narrow coastal strip which is set into the Maritime Alps and runs into the Mediterranean Sea. It's known for its casinos, gambling and glamour and for being the playground of the rich and famous. Indeed, luxury yachts owned by movie stars and European Princes can be seen docked in Monaco harbour,

Organised Monaco Grand Prix tours are available for those who want to experience the pinnacle of F1 luxury. Such tours involve exclusive flights and the best hotels, conveniently located close to the Circuit de Monaco, as well as admission to the race itself. However, if you'd rather watch the race away from the crowds which adorn the length of the track, the Fairmount hotel - situated in the heart of Monaco overlooks the famous hairpin, which is perhaps one of the most iconic corners in the world of motorsport.

It may even be possible to get tickets to the Amber Lounge - one of the world's most exclusive parties, that takes place at the Sea Club. This pool side venue (which is the brainchild of Sonia Irvine, sister of former F1 driver Eddie) has spectacular sea-view chill-out zones, funky dance floors, live music and mouth watering food.

As the jewel in the F1 crown, the Monaco Grand Prix remains one of the world's most spectacular motor sport events, so anyone who is a fan of motor racing, or who just wants to experience the glitz and glamour of Monte Carlo, should visit this prestigious race at least once in their lives.

Buy CD Jewel Cases Online

Home - About Me

Without a doubt, more and more consumers have turned to the Internet to score the best deals on many products. Aside from the convenience that online stores offer -allowing consumers to choose, compare and buy wares from their homes- a lot of businesses also offer the best deals online. Getting the best deals on the Internet entails effort and research. Before buying anything online, consumers must first be aware of the reliability of the companies they anticipate doing business with. They can ask trusted friends and fellow consumers as to what companies are most reliable.

Buying compact jewel cases online is as easy. There are countless websites that sell them. A lot of compact disk jewel cases manufacturers have their own websites where they promote and sell their products. These websites have valuable information about compact disk jewel cases and because they are coming straight from the manufacturer, they offer phenomenal discounts. They can do this because there is no need for a middleman - you buy directly from the company. You will also find great deals when buying compact disk jewel cases from established eBusinesses, since they are in direct contact with manufacturers and are usually well stocked in terms of the goods that they offer.

The specifications of compact disk jewel cases vary depending on the type. The common compact disk jewel cases are now slimmer, and more space saving than the older cases and are only about half the thickness of standard compact disk jewel case. Both types are available online. Online traders selling compact disk jewel cases most often sell these items in bulk. It's hard to find any company online that offers single jewel CD cases. This would be impractical, since shipping alone will set both the merchants and the consumers back. Another important point to consider when buying jewel cases online are the terms of shipping and delivery. Most companies offer free shipping for a minimum purchase. Shipping is ideally fast and secure and most online businesses offer warranties to guarantee safe shipping.

The Royal Palace Exemplifies Cambodia's Rich History

Home - About Me

Constructed over a century ago, the Royal Palace in Phnom Penh, Cambodia was meant to serve as a residence for the king of Cambodia, an administrative office and as a place of accommodation for visiting foreign dignitaries. Today it is the official residence of King Norodom Sihamoni and former King Norodom Sihanouk. The full name of The Royal Palace in Cambodian is Preah Barom Reachea Vaeng Chaktomuk. Kings of Cambodia occupied the palace and it was a symbol of the kingdom and a venue for elaborate court ceremonies until its disruption during the bloody Khmer Rouge regime.

The palace complex is divided into three main sections. Towards the north one can find the Silver Pagoda complex, towards the southwest is the Khemarin Palace and the central compound houses the Throne Hall. Being the most important area of the palace, the Throne Hall was referred to as the seat of judgment, where the king and his generals, ministers and trusted advisors made decisions on the future of the nation. Today it is used for religious and royal ceremonies such as weddings and coronations. The building is cross shaped with three vertical spires, the central spire rises 59 meters and is topped off with the white four faced figure of a Brahma.

The Silver Pagoda served as the temple of the royal family and is known to house many national treasures and historical artifacts such as jewel encrusted Buddha statues. The most eye-catching one being the life size Buddha statue made of crystal and encrusted with more than 9,000 diamonds. Prior to the Khmer Rouge regime the Pagoda was laid with 5,000 silver tiles and some parts were later remodeled with Italian marble.

The Khemarin Palace was the residence of the King and was separated from all other building by a wall; the building is topped off with a single tall spire. The Royal Palace is undoubtedly a treasure of the Far East and the best example of Cambodia's vibrant past. A number of Cambodia hotels are located in this area as it is a popular tourist attraction. Phnom Penh hotels offer comfortable accommodation for travelers that come to explore the mysterious beauty of the palace and other alluring attractions in the area.

SSS Online Inquiry Down

Home - About Me

It's been almost 3 years now since the ending of jewel in the palace which was aired by the GMA7. And I just don't have idea what to write here now. So I think, I can just write anything here.

Regarding the SSS Online Inquiry system of the Social Security System of the Philippines, well, it's now always down. The last time I access the site was on August 2008 and since then the site is always down.

here's few of the stories related to that:
