Governor Gwen Garcia Stops CPDRC Dancing Inmates to Dance

I've read an article in a local newspaper that Governor Gwen Garcia decided to stop the CPDRC (Cebu Rehabilitation Center) inmates to dance. Many got sad about the news. The dancing of the prisoners was conceptualized by Byron Garcia.

As we have observed, the inmates are really enjoying with the dance routines and also they got famous here on the web. Dancing is a good exercise and a very enjoyable activity that could help you forgot your problem in a while.

CPDRC is a rehabilitation center (obviously!). Of course, it has a purpose, to restore one's self or making a change for improvement. A long time ago, there were cases of jail break, drugs and gambling. CPDRC was known by DILG (Department of Interior and Local Government) as a model that should be implemented in local government units and also in jail towns.

I still don't know why Governor Gwen Garcia wanted to stop the activity. Is it because of the rumor that the inmates should have received talent fees from Michael Jackson's This Is It?

The Princess and the Frog Review

Walt Disney has introduced the new and first African-American Disney Princess in the movie, The Princess and the Frog. I watched it three nights ago and it is really different from the classic Disney Princesses we witnessed from Cinderella, Snow White and among others. It is adapted from the story The Frog Prince. It is so funny that when Tiana, the main heroine of the movie, kissed Prince Naveen (who turned into a frog) she also turned into a frog. To those who still haven't watch the movie, you must watch this.

Angelica Panganiban as Rubi

Rubi is a Mexican telenovela on 2004 played by Barbara Mori (see image at the right) and was a really big hit in the Philippines. She is very beautiful and very seductive woman. I love the plot of the story and watched the telenovela from the beginning until the end.





Lots of foreign telenovelas were adapted by ABS-CBN from Korea and Mexico. I was thinking if Rubi will be having its version. Now, it's already possible and I am excited about it. It will be played by Angelica Panganiban (see image at the left) for this year of 2010. The character really suits her. I remember when she played as Scarlet dela Rhea of Iisa Pa Lamang and she's really an effective contra bida. This time, it's Angelica's time to shine.
