[dropcap]D[/dropcap]on’t act so surprised, Your Highness. You weren’t on any mercy mission this time. Several transmissions were beamed to this ship by Rebel spies. I want to know what happened to the plans they sent you. In my experience, there is no such thing as luck. Partially, but it also obeys your commands. I want to come with you to Alderaan. There’s nothing for me here now. I want to learn the ways of the Force and be a Jedi, like my father before me. The more you tighten your grip, Tarkin, the more star systems will slip through your fingers.

She must have hidden the plans in the escape pod. Send a detachment down to retrieve them, and see to it personally, Commander. There’ll be no one to stop us this time! You’re all clear, kid. Let’s blow this thing and go home! Partially, but it also obeys your commands.

  • Dantooine. They’re on Dantooine.
  • He is here.
  • Don’t underestimate the Force.

I care. So, what do you think of her, Han? A tremor in the Force. The last time I felt it was in the presence of my old master. But with the blast shield down, I can’t even see! How am I supposed to fight? Obi-Wan is here. The Force is with him. But with the blast shield down, I can’t even see! How am I supposed to fight? You are a part of the Rebel Alliance and a traitor! Take her away!

Still, she’s got a lot of spirit. I don’t know, what do you think? What!? I don’t know what you’re talking about. I am a member of the Imperial Senate on a diplomatic mission to Alderaan– What good is a reward if you ain’t around to use it? Besides, attacking that battle station ain’t my idea of courage. It’s more like…suicide.
You don’t believe in the Force, do you? Obi-Wan is here. The Force is with him. I call it luck. Look, I can take you as far as Anchorhead. You can get a transport there to Mos Eisley or wherever you’re going. What?! The Force is strong with this one. I have you now.

  1. I care. So, what do you think of her, Han?
  2. You mean it controls your actions?

You’re all clear, kid. Let’s blow this thing and go home But with the blast shield down, I can’t even see! How am I supposed to fight? Alderaan? I’m not going to Alderaan. I’ve got to go home. It’s late, I’m in for it as it is.

Revenge of the Sith

post-imageI can’t get involved! I’ve got work to do! It’s not that I like the Empire, I hate it, but there’s nothing I can do about it right now. It’s such a long way from here. Leave that to me.

You can’t possibly…

Hey, Luke! May the Force be with you. Kid, I’ve flown from one side of this galaxy to the other. I’ve seen a lot of strange stuff, but I’ve never seen anything to make me believe there’s one all-powerful Force controlling everything. There’s no mystical energy field that controls my destiny. It’s all a lot of simple tricks and nonsense. Remember, a Jedi can feel the Force flowing through him. He is here. Ye-ha! I have traced the Rebel spies to her. Now she is my only link to finding their secret base.

Eat all you can at Kublai Khan

kublai-khan-restaurant-parkmall-cebu

Last week, Kublai Khan Mongolian Eat-All-You-Can Restaurant proudly opens its newest branch at Parkmall Cebu

Kublai Khan, which is operated by Barocan Ventures Inc. in partnership with Amuse Foods Inc., is committed in offering the same dining experience by consistently providing food of the highest quality with the freshest ingredients and excellent service.

What’s interesting about Kublai Khan is its dining concept. It’s not your typical eat-all-you-can restaurant where you would simply choose the food you like, put them on a plate, and eat. With Kublai Khan’s Mongolian buffet, there is an array of ingredients, from all sorts of vegetables, noodles, rice, meat and sauces, for a bowl of food. You get to cherry-pick the ingredients you want to eat, put them on your bowl and give it to the attendant who will be giving it to the cook who literally just mixes the stuff in your bowl and puts in fire.

And no, it’s really not that complicated. The great thing here though is, they have very friendly attendants who you can always seek for help.

[nggallery id=47]
 

PICK-MIX-COOK-EAT

When I say it’s not complicated, it is definitely not. It’s very simple. Just follow these FOUR easy steps.

kublai-khan-bowl-pick-mix-cook-eat

Well, this just proves that I really enjoyed the food. Why wouldn’t I? I mean, I got to cherry-pick the ingredients so there was no way I would not love it!

Don’t know which ingredients to pick? Not confident enough how your custom bowl of food would turn out? Or just in a hurry? Don’t fret as

PRICE

Kublai Khan gives you the freedom to choose which suits your budget from the following:

kublai-khan-menu-price

  • Eat-All-You-Can Bowl (Php260) – A big bowl for you where you can eat all and as much as you can.
  • All-You-Can Bowl (Php190) – A one-time fill bowl for you. Just for one round though.
  • Check-A-Bowl (Php140) – A big bowl for you. Just one round with limited ingredients to choose from.

[nggallery id=46]
 
Kublai Khan’s Parkmall Branch is located at the enclave section of Parkmall (beside Mooon Café), North Reclamation Area. They are open from 10 AM to 10 PM daily. Kublai Khan’s main branch is at 3rd Level Ayala Terraces. For inquiries and reservations, call (032) 236-9828 or (032) 233-6401.

The Other Side of the Coin: Smart and Globe offering ‘free’ mobile internet

editorial-smart-globe-free-internet

editorial-smart-globe-free-internet

Just a few weeks ago, leading telcos Smart Communications and Globe Telecom revealed the “big announcement” or “good news” to the public with Smart offering Unli FB + 30MB of free mobile internet with daily registration and Globe counterfeiting with Unli FB with one-time registration. These promos can be enjoyed by over 200 million people with prepaid and postpaid subscriptions. However, is this really good news? Or is it just too good to be true?

We have enlisted a couple of points why we think there’s something fishy going on.

1. This might just be a cover-up to the infamous issue — slow, globally incompetent internet speed in the PH — which may…

  • just worsen the aforesaid issue due to a more congested mobile internet. Just imagine how large the population of mobile internet users is. With this, not only the subscribers who are registered to the promos would suffer such inconvenience but probably also…
  • the other subscribers, mostly the postpaid users, who are not benefitting from these promos but still paying for the same slow mobile internet speed. With this, we begin to question, are Smart and Globe really ready to accommodate the riotous congestion?

 
2. This might just be another trick especially for those who do not know the other side of the coin or are just simply new to mobile surfing. For example,

  • Smart/Sun/TNT subscribers can be charged if they continue to use mobile data beyond the daily expiration. Especially that they have delayed notification of the promo expiration. If you are truly SMART, you should never forget that you are registered to the promo whenever you’re planning to use mobile data.
  • Meanwhile, Globe/TM subscribers may experience convenience with the one-time registration to the promo, however, they can be charged without notice for their mobile internet activities outside Facebook.

 
There may be more, but these are the important things we are currently concerned about. Well, no matter how sensible or senseless you think we are, or whatever the real agenda of these telcos for offering this service is, free internet is still free internet. Freebies are freebies. Apparently, one way or another, there is still something to be benefitted from it even if you flip the coin.
