Kinect Star Wars
You go around waving your limbs while dancing virtually to a Justine Bieber or Nicki Minaj song = Embarassing
Doing the same thing while whacking the hell out of a Sith Lord = Pretty Damn Cool!
This is the experience we will have when we get to play Kinect Star Wars ($50, Dec. 2012). This motion-controlled adventure lets you live the life of a Jedi. Now, this is a perfect excuse reason to buy myself an Xbox 360 when this goes out!

Steve Jobs Action Figure
I’ve always wanted to collect action figures of my favorite comics and cartoon characters, from Superman to Darth Vader. Though my friends and I would laugh about how these action heroes would wear their underwear outside their tights, we’re still stupidly addicted.
Enter toy companies In Icons and Dragon in Dream. On New Year’s Day, they unveiled a 12″ Steve Jobs action figure. The doll figure features a very realistic likeness to the late Apple visionary with matching black turtleneck, jeans and sandshoes (though underwear outside Jobs’ Levi’s 501s would have made it a bit more badass!).

Why We Don’t Celebrate Christmas
This time around the world multitudes of people are very busy preparing to celebrate Christmas. According to popular belief, our Lord Jesus Christ was born on December 25. But is this true?
December 25
According to history, December 25 actually has Babylonian roots. It is the celebration of the birth or “rebirth” of the sun god. In ancient times, December 25 was the day each year when the day started to become noticeably longer after the winter solstice. Thus the early pagans designated December 25 as the date of the birth or the “rebirth” of the sun.

A Touching Video: The Coca-Cola OFW Project
As an OFW myself, I was very touched and moved by this video. I totally can relate to the experiences and hardships narrated by our fellow Filipinos featured here. Although we all know that this is clearly a part of Coca-Cola’s branding and marketing strategy, at least they’re doing something for OFWs. Unlike the government that isn’t doing anything, not even for a publicity stunt or a “pa-pogi effect” move for themselves. This video is a testament to the plight of the million of OFWs around the world. Kudos Coca-Cola!
