Who “Wants Manboobs,” like Kellan Lutz?

UsMagazine.com reports that Kellan Lutz is jealous of his Twilight co-star, Robert Pattinson.  He was quoted as saying, “He’s a talented m******ucker!”.

You’ve seen Kellan Lutz shirtless haven’t you?  I wouldn’t necessarily call in “manboobs” though but according to Kellan, “He (Pattinson) asks me what I do to work out because he wants man boobs like me.”

At one point, the Calvin Klein underwear model was helping Robert Pattinson bulk up by giving him a supply of Muscle Milk and Isopure protein shakes.  However, he didn’t like it asking, “How do you drink this stuff?!”

What are manboobs?  I think these are manboobs::

But even that can be repaired…. it can turn to this!  Belo – - are you there?  Rob Pattinson might need your help. :)

Latest Gay Indie Film from the Philippines – “Parisukat”

The Philippines became well-known for producing Gay-Themed Indie Films when Lino Brocka released “Macho Dancer” in 1988 and it became an instant hit worldwide. Since then, the Philippines has produced numerous films that are gay-themed and released worldwide.

Now comes another film from the Philippines entitled, “Parisukat”. Starring Toffee Calma & Jeff Tatsuro, supported by Indie actors is one that would probably make rounds globally most especially here in Philadelphia where gay films are featured during the Philadelphia Gay & Lesbian Film Festival held during the summer. This year’s festival will take place in mid-July (tentatively scheduled for July 8th to the 19th 2010).

Top Gay News for the Week

Going to the chapel and we’re gonna get married…. Finally, it is now legal for same-sex couples to get married in Washington, D.C.

As it has always been a peeve of mine, Anti-gay anything people who stands up in self-righteousness (Hello Carrie Prejean) yet puts a blind eye on their own self. Roy Ashburn, a Republican Senator from California who has rallied against gay issues was arrested for drunk driving after leaving Faces Nightclub (Sacramento’s Premier Gay Nightclub).

Wiretaps collected by Italian authorities links Angelo Balducci (papal aide or a “gentleman of his holiness” ) to a gay prostitution ring.

Microsoft changes policy on XBox games and will now allow the use of “lesbian, gay, bi, transgender and straight” in the user name or profile which were previously banned by Microsoft due to concern that it may be used negatively.

Are you pumped for the 2010 Oscars this weekend? Chuva predicts the winners…

I love the Oscars. I usually try to see most of the nominated films but this year, I only got to see three of them. That was Avatar, Precious and Up in the Air. With that, I think I’m going to be a little biased with my predictions but we shall see. Of course, I am a bit influenced by the Golden Globes as well.

I will only guess on the top awards… So let’s start shall we?

Best Picture:

Winner – AVATAR

Best Director:

Winner – James Cameron – “AVATAR”

Best Actor:

Winner – Jeff Bridges – “Crazy Heart”

Best Actress:

Winner – Sandra Bullock – “The Blind Side”

Best Supporting Actor:

Winner – Christopher Plummer – “The Last Station”

Best Supporting Actress:

Winner – Mo’ Nique – “Precious”

Best Animated Feature Film:

Winner – “UP”

I bet you’ve never heard of PPP (Pearly Penile Papules) – Listen up.

I have never heard of it and you may certainly have not either. However, there is a statistic that says 30% (which is kind of a high number if you ask me) that guys have PPP or Pearly Penile Papules. They look like tiny white pimples around the head of your peepee.

If you are one who has these, we are reminded that this is not STD or Sexually Transmitted Disease but rather normal and many men have them. Your doctor may have already told you that it is not cancerous and that you should just live with it. Yet, they could be embarrassing of course. Who wouldn’t be? If you’ve never even seen what these things look like (I bet you will be checking yourself after you see these pictures!!), you may see it posted on a surgical website in San Diego (WARNING: Although this is a medical procedure before and after photos, it is still NSFW!!!) and if you’re not easily grossed out, check it here.
From what I hear, it will cost you $3,125.00 USD (comment posted on Youtube) to get it taken care of but if you’ve lived with it for a while – and are extremely embarrassed about it and wanted it taken care of – there is a procedure to do this.

This is the reason I want to get back into Stock Trading – Secret Millionaire donates $7 Million

Low and limited income got you in a bind? Looking for ways to supplement your income?

I am. I have re-opened by Ebay business because I want extra income. I don’t need it badly but it does help to have extra spending money when you want to do things other than order pizza and watch DVD movies at night.

But one other thing got my attention. I was talking to a friend of mine from California, and I have known him for about 10 years now. He was a young nursing student at the time when I met him. We just hooked up again and guess what? The guy owns several properties in California (some of which he had lost money) where he has additional positive income coming in. On top of that, he does online trading where he makes approximately 3-4K a day. Yes, that’s A DAY.

We are both enrolled in this program and I am seriously putting my ducks in a row to position myself to start trading by months-end. And here’s a story that would probably inspire you as well.

On the headlines today, a secret millionaire who lived in a simple house donated $7 million dollars to her alma mater, Lake Forest College. Grace Groner amassed the millions she had from a $180 stock purchase made back in 1935. Imagine that! Long-term investing. And this is not a sponsored post… I really am going to do this.

Watch her story below:

(VIDEO) Iraq War Veteran Shannon Meehan, Iraq War Veteran, for Pennsylvania State Representative

The co-author of the book Beyond Duty: Life on the Front Line, Shannon Meehan, and Iraq War Veteran and suffers from PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) after serving in Iraq is running for State Representative (D) in the state of Pennsylvania – Huffington Post reports.

There will be a book signing in Johnstown, PA tomorrow. I wouldn’t mind him running. In fact, I think he’s cute.. not that it is a pre-requisite but an honorable soldier like him who said, “I will continue to serve.” should be given every chance to do so in wanting to serve his country. And besides, he’s a Democrat – - GO GO GO!

Dave Navarro goes nude for PETA’s “Ink, Not Mink” campaign

I read this today. I’m one of the guilty ones. I don’t wear fur and don’t intend to wear fur. What I’m guilty of is buying my pet instead of adopting him. Don’t get me wrong. I did look at pet shelters while I was looking for a new dog but I couldn’t find a Shih Tzu. So I decided to buy mine.

Kellan Lutz was the most recent poster boy for PETA’s “Adopt, don’t buy” campaign. Adorable as he is – - the message is real. If you’re looking for a pet – - please adopt, don’t buy.

Following the footsteps of Tommy Lee, another big name for PETA is Dave Navarro who went and posed nude for a great cause. He dropped his trousers and showed nothing but ink. Hence, the campaign is “Ink, not Mink!” Stop animal cruelty.

Watch the behind the scenes video below:

Pilipinas Got Talent’s Jovit Baldivino Soars – Facebook fans reaches 13K

It didn’t take that long for Pilipinas Got Talent’s Jovit Baldivino to gain the popularity similar to that of Susan Boyle when her video was posted on Youtube.

Jovit Baldivino performed for Pilipinas Got Talent and the video posted on Youtube has already reached 768,000 views – nearing a million views in a week.    Does anyone have Ellen Degeneres’ or Oprah’s number?  I’m going to call them myself!  Ha!

I believe what struck the hearts of his fans is his humility.  He said that if he doesn’t win, at least he was able to show the world what talents Filipinos possess.   That is very admirable.

And Jovit – - I wish you all the best.  Become a fan of Jovit on Facebook.   Watch the video here.

Bishops of the Philippines seeks to ban condom ads

I’m all for moral values and proper conduct.  It’s a given.  It is our responsibility to teach our children what is right and what is wrong.  Maybe I’m a little naive about this but stopping the use of condoms and instead have thousands of unwanted pregnancy and even worst, sexually transmitted diseases that may be prevented by using a condom?

Whether you like it or not, teenagers will be teenagers.  We’ve all been there once.  Of course, I’m not the most chaste ones in the bunch but let’s face it,  I had the urge then and if knowledge is power – teaching kids how to protect themselves is still a plus in my book.

Chile Earthquake Altered Earth Axis, Shortened Day – Gives me less time to do my makeup.

Sheezawhiz!  Here we go.  Did you hear about the 8.8 magnitude earthquake that recently devastated the country of Chile and threatened a tsunami from the Pacific Ocean had shortened the day by 1.26 millionths of a second.  It’s not like you’re going to notice it but according to seismologists, the accuracy of measuring the length of day is approximately 20 millionths of a second so they really can’t measure the change and it won’t be permanent either.

This happens when “thrust-earthquakes” – such as the one experienced in Chile and the 9 magnitude earthquake in Sumatra back in 2004 – dives beneath an adjacent plate… or whatever that means.

If you don’t believe me – - read up on it at National Geographic… link below.

Chile Earthquake Altered Earth Axis, Shortened Day.

I really hope she’s simply exhausted. Whitney Houston isdatchu?

Either her Australian Tour is taking a toll on her (let’s hope it’s just that) or something is going on. Diva Whitney Houston is not getting a lot of praise lately. From concert-goers walking out on her because of her bad performance and taking too many breaks during the concert, to this.

40 Photos of the Diva was taken as she eats a late lunch before her concert. Either she’s hot as hell from the Australian summer – - or whatever but come on gurl – - this comeback is not doing you any good.

Chuva at the movies: Percy Jackson and the Olympians Review

Last night, I was bored to my skull. The opportunity to see a movie (I have been wanting to see Valentine’s Day) came up and I quickly grabbed it. The movie? Percy Jackson and the Olympians. The Lightning Thief.

I was a bit apprehensive as I imagined the movie to be more appealing to kids but I was actually surprised. I loved the Greek Mythology and the appearance of Uma Thurman as Medusa was a treat. I enjoyed the film and I highly believe that the kid - Logan Lerman was outstandingly charming as Percy. There were some goofy errors in the film however just like the head of Medusa appearing when it was clearly visible that they didn’t have it at that time at the Lotus Casion and major Greek Mythology with Annabeth as Athena’s daughter. In actual Greek myth, Athena was eternally devoted to chastity and never had any children.

I would still recommend it as it was entertaining and would be fitting for kids to watch as well. Take the whole family. Out of five, I give it a four.

Looking for Cable TV options.. hmmmm.

When the craziness about the economy happened last year, I had to tighten my belt across the board. I cut my home phone and cable TV to save a few bucks. I lowered my cell phone subscription to a manageable amount because we were all thinking that we’re going to lose our jobs.

Well, the layoffs did happen and luckily I wasn’t one of the people who were laid off. My company actually went for the underperformers rather than just cutting people by salary level. I made that cut.

Now that the economy is slowly recovering, our pay cuts have been restored, I figured it’s time to get my cable TV back. I missed the whole Winter Olympics because of that. I started checking out sites that would provide me the best option for the best price. There are many offers out there and I couldn’t decide. I’m thinking DIRECT TV because it offers the TFC channel in my area. I love watching the Filipino soaps and I missed an entire season of it.

What is your experience with DIRECT TV? Would you recommend it to your friends? I would like to get your opinions first before I jumped in. They actually have great deals right now and free upgrades to DVR and HD. What do you think?

Waddaya know? Isaiah Mustafa Arizona State Wide Receiver for Old Spice

I bet you didn’t know this. A phenomenal Youtube commercial of former Arizona State Wide Receiver is the new endorser for Old Spice. Well, when he went shirtless – - fans just flocked the commercial with almost four million views. Ha! Who would have known that Isaiah Mustafa, who caught passes in Tempe, Arizona back in the 90s and then NFL from 1997 to 2000 for the Titans would be this popular on Youtube.

I guess it was when his towel dropped that caught everyone’s attention. :)

Monster 40″ Storm Predicted for Mid-Atlantic for March 7 – Rumor or Fact?

I have no confirmation of this but I am currently looking at the Accuweather.com storm tracker as discussed on the forum link below. I still couldn’t find a link to Accuweather.com that would state that a monster storm of 40″ or more would be hitting the Philly /Wash.DC/95 Corridor Area with an estimated 40′ of snow on/around March 7. Rumors spread quickly specially if you experienced the snowfall we experienced here in the last three weeks.

You decide.

Here are the sources provided on the forum:

Here is the link:

www.accuweather.com/mt-news-blogs.asp…

or google:

meteromadness.accuweather.com

Meterorlogist Henry Megusity has a 6 minute video.

Click Play Video and he explains storms #1 and #2.

Storm 1 is currently in Detroit/Chicaco and will bring 6-12 inches Wednesday Feb. 24.

Storm 2 is currently in Flagstaff, Arizona and will move thru Texas, up the eastern coast, and dump 2-3 feet of snow in PA-NY -upstate NY area March 3-4.

In the article below the video the last paragraph says Storm 3 is too far away to predict exactly yet, but will follow Storm 2 as “the big one!”!

To the right there is a menu where you can click on updated information and weather maps and snow maps –it is updated every few hours.


Should you find accurate information about the anticipated or alleged March 7, 2010 Storm of the Century, please comment below.
