Let's Do The News! (June 1, 2012)

It's time for the news but it's raining and it always do because when June comes in the Philippines, it will always rains, even in school days.

Uh, excuse me. You know June is the start of the new school year and I know that it starts this Monday. Is the K12 in effect?

I'm not sure...

Anyway, I am not very very familiar about the K12 education curriculum but how does it work?

K - 12, an education curriculum I think it's too complicated because some say, kids from the school age (6 years old, perhaps?) have to start from kinder and their level of education has to end in the 12th grade before advancing to college. In the beginning we have, Kinder, Elementary (Grade 1 to 6) and High School (First Year to 4th Year).

Wait, wait, wait. Kinder, Grade 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, First Year, 2nd year, 3rd year, and fourth year. That's eleven. K to 12? What's for? Are they gonna add Grade 7 or 5th year?

(laughing)

I don't know. Either they gonna add another one for elementary or in high school but...um...agh... This whole K to 12 curriculum issue is a bit too complicated. If you guys going to school in June 4, take precautions because you don't know what comes next. He he he...

(laughing)

Anyway, forget about this K12 stuff. That's not the most of my problems. Now anyway, my 64GB fourth generation iPod Touch.

Yeah?

I got this one as a gift since Christmas 2010...

What happened?

There is a big problem on my iPod Touch because the Home button seems to be broken or stuck. I can't press it.

(awww)

Really?

I tried everything but it never worked. My iPod Touch 64GB was been in my possession for two years and now this. The home button doesn't work at all. Surely I want to find someone to repair it but sadly, they won't, and never will, fix an iPod Touch!

Really?

Yeah. It doesn't matter any broken Apple gadget you have. Even iPhone or iPad. If the home button is stuck, they'll never repair it but they'll trade you in a replacement within half the price.

(ooohh)


Half the price? How much is that iPod Touch 64GB of yours?

I think its 399USD but they'll charge me 199USD for a replacement! I think its too pricey.

Come on, either pay it or stuck with an iPod Touch with a broken Home button. You have a choice...

My money, I often spend it on mp3 music, Japanese music CDs, apps, figures, and now to put it on my shopping list, die-cast model cars. Is there time to accept the risk?

Some say, you have until tomorrow for this. Either accept it or stuck with it. You decide.

Oh, come on... It's too hard to decide!!!! Now anyway, Forza Motorsport 4, okay? Community Bounty Hunter, beat the Autumn Fallout lap time set by Forza player, F1SH0, to win a customized Jaguar D-Type. I think it was one of the hardest challenges the producers asked me to do.

Hmmm?

I tried everything using tuning kits provided by the people who beat F1SH0's time of 1:36.550. Even cars like the Nissan 370Z (last used by F1SH0), Lancia 037, and my unicorn car I got since March, the Honda NSX-R GT. I spent a whole hour to beat his time but nothing worked.

Whoa there? An hour worth of gameplay to beat F1SH0's time using the recommended cars but nothing worked?

Yeah, I tried. Until I came in at the final hour of the Community Bounty Hunter event. I used an NSX-R GT with a tuning kit set by someone who beat F1SH0's time and after a few laps elapsed. I did it. I eclipsed F1SH0's lap time.

Wow. What was your best?

1:36.454. A .096 seconds quicker than F1SH0's.

(applause)

Wow. Well done. Seems that you are going to get that D-Type, right?

Yes! Indeed I am!!!

Uh, if you get that, we're going to send it on the Top Gear Test Track for the lap time, right?

Yes! We will!

(applause)

Anyway, bad news. I got a message from T-Mobile about the AT&T merger deal.

Really, what is it?

Read...

"Free T-Mobile msg: The AT&T merger is off, but we've never slowed down. We're investing billions in network coverage & reliability. http://t-mobile.com/attoff"

Wha....Why?

Long story but I believe, the T-Mobile AT&T merge deal was cancelled. Axed. Gone. Removed. No more. That's it. T-Mobile never collide with AT&T.

(awwww)

Yeah. That really is bad news to T-Mobile subscribers. Sorry.

Now, anyway, Aquaplus, a maker behind the ToHeart2 series, they said that there's going to be a...get ready to groan ladies and gents....new PSP game coming late this year. No further details for now but a teaser site that says "A New Game? A Sequel?" on it with illustrations by Misato Mitsumi (ToHeart2, Comic Party games), Hisashi Kawata (To Heart, ToHeart2, White Album games), Tatsuki Amazuyu (Utawarerumono game), Kokonoka, Syungo Sumaki, and Bou (Muv-Luv).


Oh, come on! Nooo!!! When will Aquaplus make a PSVita game?

(laughing)

Come on, no one can hear you scream. Most Japanese game makers still rely on making PSP games rather than PSVita games because PSP sales in Japan are still strong.

Oh....How's this?!

Hatsune Miku PS Vita

What's that?

It's a PSVita with a Hatsune Miku on it! It was made to commemorate an upcoming Hatsune Miku game on the PSVita. This kind of PSVita will come out in the 3rd quarter of this year and what you also get are some of the peripherals, a 4GB bespoke memory card developed for the PSVita, and a new Hatsune Miku PSVita game. This was announced since the announcement of a new Crystal White PSVita color.




(ooohh)

And the cost...34,980 Japanese Yen. Which in Top Gear math, its about 35,000 Pesos. Sort of...

Gosh, even with Hatsune Miku on it, I think they wouldn't want to buy it because the games list on the PSVita is a bit less. If that new Hatsune Miku game on the PSVita is here, can the PSVita reach the top? Not so...

(laughing)

Look at this!

What?

2013 Volkswagen Scirocco GTS

It's a special edition 2013 Volkswagen Scirocco GTS debuted at this year's Leipzig Auto Show to celebrate 30 years since the MkII Scirocco's GTS variant. It comes with a 2.0-liter TSI petrol with 207hp (210PS) and comes equipped with bespoke styling cues that hark back to the more colorful 1970s and 1980s.


Oh that's real nice. It looks the same as the one that James and Jeremy making a commercial. Oops! 2-litre TSI! Can't do BERLIN TO WARSAW IN ONE TANK!

(awwww)

Anyway, when in Miami, some guy succumbed to drugs ate someone's face! I'm not joking! He ate someone's face!

(whoa!)

What? Oh no! Is this a zombie?

What? No. He's not a zombie. He's a guy succumbed to um...deadly synthetic pot known as Bath Salts!

Bath Salts? What was that?

It's an illegal drug that was made in China, sold online.

Aha! Another China-made product. Maybe those Chinese want to retaliate with a bit of bio-terror...

(audience laughing)

Now, in the case of a drug-succumbed man who ate a hobo's face like a zombie, the senate proposed a federal ban against bath salts and synthetic drugs, hopefully that this whole "Miami Zombie" thing won't be happened again. Period.


Is this a ZOMBIE?

Speaking of zombie, have you seen the second season of "Kore wa Zombie desu ka?" known as "Kore wa Zombie desu ka? Of The Dead"?

(oooh)

Oh, nice anime. I give credit to that.

Guess what? Kore wa Zombie desu ka? Of The Dead ends next week. That was verified by the official Twitter account.

(awwww)

Oh, how sad...

But! After the end of the final episode, they will said a "super, super, super important announcement." on the official "Kore wa Zombie desu ka?" web page. Find out soon, okay?

Now anyway, breaking news. The Mercedes-Benz GL Class gets the AMG treatment. Here it is. Look:

2013 Mercedes-Benz GL63 AMG

It is by far most the mammoth of the Mercedes-Benz AMG SUV range. Purely jurassic. A GL-Class mated with a V8 Twin Turbo engine. That's the Mercedes-Benz GL63 AMG!


Oohh! This what happens when this guy ate too much HUNGRYMAN! Heh...

(laughing)

That's some biceps on this one.

It is!

And that's the news!
