Less Framework 2

Paul Villacorta — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 08:11:52 +0000

Less Framework 2 is a CSS Framework focused on creating layouts for cross-devices. It works beautifully on major browsers like Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Opera and IE9.

A CSS framework for cross-device layouts. It’s an attempt to break free from the boredom of generic 960 px layouts, by using CSS3 media-queries to switch between three layouts: a 320 px one for smartphones, a 768 px one for netbooks and tablets, and a 1280 px one for laptops and desktops.

Rules of being a bloke

Paul Villacorta — Tue, 03 Aug 2010 05:24:27 +0000

Under no circumstances may two men share an umbrella.
It is ok for a man to cry under the following circumstances:
- When a heroic dog dies to save its master.
- The moment Angelina Jolie starts unbuttoning her blouse.
- After wrecking your boss’ car.
- One hour, 12 minutes, 37 seconds into “The Crying Game”.
- When she is using her teeth
Any Man who brings a camera to a stag night may be legally killed and eaten by his mates.
Unless he murdered someone in your family, you must bail a friend out of jail within 12 hours.
If you’ve known a bloke for more than 24 hours, his sister is off limits forever, unless you actually marry her.

Moaning about the brand of free beer in a mate’s fridge is forbidden. Complain at will if the temperature is unsuitable.
No man shall ever be required to buy a birthday present for another man. In fact, even remembering your mate’s birthday is strictly optional.
On a road trip, the strongest bladder determines pit stops, not the weakest.
When stumbling upon other blokes watching a sporting event, you may ask the score of the game in progress, but you may never ask who’s playing.
You may flatulate in front of a woman only after you have brought her to climax. If you trap her head under the covers for the purpose of flatulent entertainment, she’s officially your girlfriend.
It is permissible to quaff a fruity alcopop drink only when you’re sunning on a tropical beach… and it’s delivered by a topless supermodel…and it’s free.
Only in situations of moral and/or physical peril are you allowed to kick another bloke in the nuts.
Unless you’re in prison, never fight naked.
Friends don’t let friends wear Speedos. Ever. Issue closed.
If a man’s fly is down, that’s his problem, you didn’t see anything.
Women who claim they “love to watch sports” must be treated as spies until they demonstrate knowledge of the game (can explain offside or LBW) and the ability to drink as much as the other sports watchers.
A man in the company of a hot, suggestively dressed woman must remain sober enough to fight.
Never hesitate to reach for the last beer or the last slice of pizza,but not both – that’s just mean.
If you compliment a bloke on his six-pack, you’d better be talking about his choice of beer.
Never join your girlfriend or wife in discussing a mate of yours, except if she’s withholding sex pending your response.
Phrases that may NOT be uttered to another man while lifting weights:
- Yeah, Baby, Push it!
- C’mon, give me one more! Harder!
- Another set and we can hit the showers!
Never talk to a man in a bathroom unless you are on equal footing: i.e. Both urinating, both waiting in line, etc. For all other situations, an almost imperceptible nod is all the conversation you need.
Never allow a telephone conversation with a woman to go on longer than you are able to have sex with her. Keep a stopwatch by the phone.Hang up if necessary.
The morning after you and a girl who was formerly “just a friend” have carnal drunken monkey sex, the fact that you’re feeling weird and guilty is no reason not to nail her again before the discussion about what a big mistake it was.
It is acceptable for you to drive her car. It is not acceptable for her to drive yours.
Thou shalt not buy a car in the colours of brown, pink, lime green, orange, sky blue or lawrence llwelyn-bowen two-tone purple.
The girl who replies to the question “What do you want for Christmas?” with “If you loved me, you’d know what I want!” gets an Xbox. End of story.
There is no reason for guys to watch Ice Skating or Mens Gymnastics.Ever.

my taiwan brothers are back

Paul Villacorta — Mon, 26 Jul 2010 17:11:30 +0000

Last March when we flew with some of our chapter members to Taiwan to visit our JCI San Chung Chapter Brothers we had a very memorable and a cordial reception from them. I never knew they were that kind and very accommodating that they treated us as one of their own.

Today, it’s our turn to show them some smashing hospitality because they’re visiting us here in Cebu. It’s so nice to see them again, those faces like Mark Chen, Mark Lin, Gary Ko with his family, the good ol’ Tamo the ‘God Father’, Max, Johnny and his fiance, Apple, Nick and one of their Past President OB. Half of our chapter went to the airport to welcome them and half of us were preparing their food at Neo Neo in Mabolo. As usual we welcomed them with juicy barbecue and the beer!

We chatted around, we drink bottles of beer, we took photos with them and we talk and talk and talk. This is just day 1 and we’ve prepared a lot of adventures for them. It feels so great to see them again! Long live JCI San Chung Taiwan and JCI Mandaue!

HOLGA D Concept

Paul Villacorta — Thu, 22 Jul 2010 03:00:15 +0000

The HOLGA D Concept is a work of a creative genius Saikat Biswas. The idea is simply to create a very simple, handy and elegant digital camera preserving its very root the HOLGA camera.

Let’s talk about its features. You should not be surprised if you won’t find any LCD display on HOLGA D unlike any other digital cameras. It is an adaptation from the good old film cameras where your photos would remain mysterious.

Just like with those vintage cameras, you’ll always have an idea how many frames left for you to shot, effects like B&W (black and white) or Color, the aspect ratio and the battery status. You’ll be able to set the ISO and Focus Ring. There is also a port where you could plug accessories like Viewfinder, Aperture disks, Hot-shoe and a mini Flash.

In my opinion, I guess the standard battery pack should be used on this camera instead of the regular AA battery.

Well, this digital HOLGA camera is a toy camera that you would want to have! You probably can’t wait to have a grip on this camera.

What is HOLGA?
The Holga is an inexpensive, medium format 120 film toy camera, made in China, known for its low-fidelity aesthetic.

The HOLGA D. Concept by Saikat Biswas

Holga D is a digital camera inspired from the extremely popular cult of Holga and other toy cameras of its kind.

Paul Villacorta — Fri, 16 Jul 2010 11:46:56 +0000

Facebook isn’t just about a Social Networking site, it has its movie right now and its called ‘The Social Network‘ of which for me its more of a ‘Facebook Movie‘. This movie shows the early history of Facebook ,its struggles in court trials and how it made its fortune turning Facebook to a BILLION DOLLAR Company.

This movie is based in part of the book The Accidental Billionaires. Written by Aaron Sorkin and directed by David Fincher, and Jesse Eisenberg as Mark Zuckerberg.

Trailer 2 from Yahoo Movies

If you noticed, they had a good choice of music on this trailer, ‘Creep’ of Radiohead which was covered by Scala a Belgium girls choir.
