sinong mahilig sa Lego dito....noon at ngayon. I used to have them when I was a kid. Recently I purchased a Lego Star Wars B-Wing fighter and I fell in love again. Meron ba ditong may Millenium Falcon, yung 5000+ pieces na Lego set? I'm planning kaso $500 dollars....pero astig! Also may Eiffel Tower and Taj Mahal Lego sets....pwedeng decoration sa bahay. The most advanced is Mindstorms NXT...parang Technic pero programmable sa computer...complete with sensors and motors...a must for robotics fans!

education Sex Education in the Philippines
BlueEyes posted a topic in Academics, Schools, Universities
Okay, I'll admit that I'm not the one to say that the RP's Constitution seems a bit f#&ked up, but there it is. I was reading the Star today and one of the editorialist (I think his last name was Sison) had a peice about the fact that Sex Ed can't really be taught here because there is a Constitutional provision that negates it. After I did the proverbial head shake and WTF?, I read the rest of the piece. Apparently, there is a clause somewhere that says that formal education is secondary to the teachings of parents and guardians. Attempts to institute a formal sex ed class country wide was met with contempt at the thought of wasting tax money on something that must be taught at home. (Right, Mom and Dad have nine kids...they are definetky the ones Junior should be listening to.) Many private schools skirt the issue under the pretext of religion or provide abooklet for Mom and Dad to share with the spawn. That must be a comfortable dinner chat. Seriously, who can shed some light on this mystifying use of legalese? If this is true, is there a more important reason to rewrite the Constitution? We already have more mouths than we can feed and abuse the land with consumables and waste for the nearly ninety million who call this beautiful land home. Condoms are not the answer if Junior doesn't know what it's for. -
beach Beaches And Resorts Near Manila (Travel by Car)
crossroad replied to THUG's topic in Hotels and Destinations
I would like to know the best inland beach in the Philippines. Sometimes it would be nice if we could just pack our bags, load it up in the van, and drive to your destination. No hassles of buying tickets, removing your shoes in the airport security, delayed flights, you know what I mean. The Goal..To find an Inland beach that is similar to Boracay. Why Boracay? Because of its WHITE POWDERY sand that doesnt get hot even in the middle of the afternoon, its gentle slope to the water which makes it child friendly, no pebbles/rocks that might hurt when you walk barefoot and of course the clear water with gentle waves. Again, my goal is to find a good inland beach that is similar to Boracay. You probably have one in your province or better yet own one. It doesnt have to have restaurants or resorts, even if its only access is a rough road. The only criteria is it should be similar to Boracay as described above. Thank you and I hope for your recommendations !!
