Michelin claimed its 18th consecutive win at the Le Mans 24 Hours in France last week, bringing their total victories to 24 since the famous endurance race was organized in 1923.

The Porsche team, aided by Michelin’s competitive, consistent tires, dethroned defending champion Audi with a one-two finish by the No. 19 and No. 17 Porsche 919 Hybrids. 

Nico Hülkenberg, Earl Bamber and Nick Tandy steered their Porsche sports-prototype racing vehicle to an emphatic victory, while the No. 17, led by Mark Webber, Brendon Hartley and Timo Bernhard finished second. 

The German firm continues to be the most successful carmaker in Le Mans history.

Porsche Team also established a new track lap record for the 13.629 km circuit June 10. Neel Jani's time of 3m 16.887s (249kph) smashed the previous record which was posted in 2008 by Stéphane Sarrazin (Peugeot 908 HDI), now a member of the Toyota Racing line-up.

"Anyone can be a hero. Anyone can be a SUPER hero. And most anything is possible, even the success of a crazy show such as Kung Paano Ako Naging Leading Lady"- Carlo Vergara

Due to insistent public clamor, Manila’s newest theater group Dalanghita Productions, proudly brings back the highly-acclaimed “KUNG PAANO AKO NAGING LEADING LADY THE MUSICAL” in a move-over engagement beginning July 3 at Onstage, Greenbelt 1, Makati City.

This is the story of two sisters named MELY and VIVA who both yearn to fulfill their dreams. Their sibling relationship and rivalry becomes more complicated due to an unsettled past and a budding romance, all in the context of an ongoing war between the superhero and supervillain teams. Being a maid is tough enough, but when Mely lands a job under a group of superheroes, she steps up to the unique challenge for the sake of her family. The musical takes us through the journey of the characters as each tries to find his/her place in the world where superheroes and supervillains exist. 

The comic book writer mentioned that "Kung Paano Ako Naging Leading Lady is a simple story of a woman who strives to make something of her life for the benefit of those she loves. It is a story of her sister as well, who believes that fate will somehow give her the opportunity to prove her worth."

Durables Versus Disposables

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Many homemakers, in their desire to save money and time, resort to using plastic bags and Styrofoam products as food containers. These are relatively cheap and do not need to be cleaned after use. 

However, it is not advisable to use these disposable food containers for a number of reasons. First, these cheap items are made of flimsy material and are prone to breakage. You do not want to spill food on your bag and clothes, do you? It is better to use containers that can be sealed tightly and can be easily opened. Klio Food Keepers have an easy-to-open lid design that also allows secure fastening.

Second, you run the risk of having toxic chemicals leach into your food. Styrofoam leaches carcinogenic materials, especially when it comes into contact with hot food. On the other hand, Klio products are guaranteed safe for food storage. It is also microwave and freezer-safe, unlike some disposable food containers.
