Real Madrid Defender Sergio Ramos Dropped the Copa del Rey Trophy just a while ago. They were in a parade celebrating their win against Barcelona. The players were in a open topped double decker bus when Sergio Ramos lost his grip on the Copa del Rey trophy. It fell under the bus and was said to be flattened, but later announced that it was fine.
Although they say it was fine, some videos show some emergency personnel getting some broken pieces under the bus. Not to mention it was not seen at the celebration of the Plaza de Cibeles in central Madrid.
Watch this amatuer video that captured Real Madrid's Sergio Ramos losing grip of the Copa del Rey Trophy.
Real Madrid won the Copa del Rey Trophy, beating Barcelona 1-0. The winning goal was made by Ronaldo in Valencia. Copa del Rey is the Spanish equivalent of the FA cup. Copa del Rey Trophy is also called the King's Cup. The Copa del Rey Trophy that was dropped is the 12th version of the cup to be commissioned.
Finally the car driving the ABS-CBN van was sued by ABS-CBN according to Bong Osorio, ABS-CBN Corp. head of Corporate Communications. He said that the driver is not an employee of ABS-CBN but an employee of Southbend Express Services, Inc., a service contractor of ABS-CBN. The driver is sued for reckless imprudence that caused the death of AJ Perez and injured 4 others.
Base on some investigation I read and some images I saw on TV, it showed that the two ABS-CBN vans in convoy was overtaking a vegetable truck. While the first van was able to successfully overtake, the second van was not able to. Unfortunately it was hit by an approaching PARTAS passenger bus before it could get back to its lane. This happened along McArthur highway in Barangay San Julian, Tarlac.
Any good driver would say that the van driver is at fault. He clearly was not able to estimate properly while overtaking. In tagalog "alanganin ang pagovertake niya." I'm not saying that the bus driver didn't do anything wrong. We all know that bus drivers here don't really care about approaching vehicles. But technically the responsibility of looking ahead to estimate the approaching vehicles lies with the one who is overtaking.
Kate Middleton now has her own coat of arms(left). Supposedly, Kate has the right to apply herself a crest to the College of Arms which deals with coat of arms matters. But her father wanted the whole family to be able to use the crest. That's why Michael Middleton was the one who petitioned for the coat of arms which reportedly costs 4,400 pounds. This means that his other children, Pippa and James, and his wife Carole Middleton can also use the crest. So technically, Kate Middleton's family is the ones who has the new coat of arms.
The new coat of arms is pretty simple in design compared to the prince's. The three acorns represents the three children including Kate. The two thin white chevron symbolizes snowy mountains which represents the family's love for skiing and outdoors. The gold chevron in the middle represents the mother, Carole. It was colored gold because Carole's maiden name was Goldsmith. The Colors red and blue in the background represents the Union flag of UK and matches the recently revised Prince William's coat of arms.

Watching this video just makes you smile. Everyone seems to be talking about the Royal wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton all month.

They got the idea from the "JK Wedding Entrance Dance" which had 64 million views. The video was filmed at St. Bartholomew the Great Church in London.

Lady Gaga again has a controversial outfit. This time with barely nothing at all. She had a photo-shoot with NME Magazine in a see-through suit with only thin zippers to cover her breasts and her other parts.
Ashley Tisdale is well known for is wholesome image in High School Musical. But I guess she's a big girl now, and appeared on a nude photo shoot with Allure magazine's May issue. She is turning 26 this year so I think people are just used to her clean image.
Allure magazine's May issue also features Big Bang Theory's Kaley Cuoco, 25. She loved the photo shoot and is comfortable being naked. Other celebrities joined the issue including

This past few months the whole world seems to be focusing more on Kate Middleton. Enter Kate's cousin Katrina Darling. She's a 20 year old burlesque dancer. Her signature act titled God Save The Queen, where she wears red nipple tassels and thongs. Her first performance was when she was 18 years old with the Sunderland dance troupe Coquette Collective.

latest of Kate's relatives to give a sort of bad image to her.
Here's a video from YouTube. Not entirely sure if this is the same Katrina Darling, but the video is entertaining... watch..
Just saw the trailer of Captain America: The First Avenger 2011 movie. I couldn't quite see the new costume for the hero so I looked for a clear image and stumbled upon the image above. Chris Evans in his full Captain America uniform. When compared to the 1990 classic Captain America look which Matt Salinger plays the iconic hero, its strikingly different.
They designed the new Captain America costume maybe too realistic. The movie's setting is in 1942 so I guess if you look at it, it seems appropriate for that time. Captain America is a soldier after all.
(more images below)
His mask is like a soldier's helmet, and his pants is from an airman’s jumpsuit. The wings are just painted on his helmet and the star is smaller. If you look at it at a certain point of view, you can actually imagine it being part of G.I. Joe. But if you don't like the costume, don't be too disappointed. They say that the costume will most likely be upgraded or changed in the most awaited The Avengers movie.
Now how about the Red Skull? They made simpler and it works for me.
Captain America: The First Avenger will be released July 22nd starring Chris Evans as Steve Rogers, Hugo Weaving as Red Skull, Hayley Atwell as Peggy Carter and Samuel L. Jackson as Nicky Fury.
1942, Steve Rogers (Chris Evans) deemed unfit for military service, he volunteers for a top secret research project that turns him into Captain America, a superhero dedicated to defending America's ideals. - IMDB
After comparing the costumes. Compare the movie. Below are two youtube videos showing the 1990 Captain America Trailer and the upcoming 2011 Captain America: The First Avenger
St. James’s Palace launched an official website for the coming royal wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton. It seems like the world is very interested on the most highly anticipated event of the year. Its just appropriate that the palace announces an official website so that people around the world can be updated about the wedding of the year.
On the "royal website", people can be informed on what's the latest news updates, pictures and videos on the preparations to the upcoming royal wedding. It will even have
details about Kate Middleton's wedding dress. It has yet to be announced if it will stream live broadcast of the royal wedding itself.
Who built or developed the royal website for Prince William and Kate? No, not St. James Palace, Clarence House nor Prince William's staff. The website was built by Accenture and hosted by Google. Why Google? because they can handle huge web traffic, which we can assume the website will have on the wedding day.
Robert Pattinson says that Breaking Dawn is for more mature audiences. Breaking Dawn focuses on Edward(Pattinson) and Bella(Kristen Stewart) marries and have a baby. If there's a baby, this means hot sex scenes and not to mention the half vampire half human childbirth scene. Seems like even having these scenes Breaking Dawn will be rated PG-13 like the first installments of the Twilight saga.
Robert also added that Breaking Dawn is like a horror movie and said in an issue of Entertainment Weekly that
"There's some interesting and weird stuff going on -- really very, very, very strange." Robert Pattinson laughed at the decision that Breaking Dawn will be released with a PG-13 rating. "I just can't see how it's going to be PG-13... unless they cut everything out," he said on a an interview.
There have been a pair of photos leaked from Breaking Dawn and was circulated through tweeter. Summit Entertainment quickly removed the images but failed to prevent it from circulating. The images shows Edward and Bella in bed making love. Notice that Edward is grabbing the headboard. Other than the sex scenes, the birth scene is also said to be "not for young audiences" with the caesarean on dying Bella and the fake placenta and all.
So far Twilight Breaking Dawn will be rated PG-13. Still fans argue that it should be rated R to stay true to some graphic scenes in the book. But screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg disagrees and is standing by the PG-13 rating.
Adrianne Palicki showed off her newly designed wonder woman costume for the upcoming pilot episode of NBC's Wonder Woman.

A man in Qingdao, Eastern China hired people to use sledgehammers and destroy his newly bought $200,000 Lamborghini Gallardo. The Chinese owner was so angry after his Lamborghini broke down. He made it into a public protest for World Consumer Rights Day and destroyed it publicly with lots of onlooking crowd.
The Lamborghini Gallardo was bought six months ago and encountered mechanical problems on Nov 29, 2010. He then sent the car to a Lamborghini dealer's maintenance service in Qingdao. But the problem was not solved and that made him furious.
This is a Youtube video from Carbuzz and explanation why the chinese businessman destroyed his Lamborghini.
The engine problem wasn't solved, but instead the bumper and chassis were damaged by the transport. The owner complained by the dealer but they refused to take responsibility in this matter, so the angry owner contacted Lamborghini CEO Stephan Winkelmann, the brand's China headquarters, its after-sales service manager for Asia-Pacific region, and the brand's owner Volkswagen Group, but the problem was not solved.
Angry about the service, the owner felt his consumer rights were ignored. So he decided that the best way to gain attention was to destroy his car on the 15th of March, which is also World Consumer Rights Day. Apparently, he hired people to publicly destroy his car with hammers and make his statement. This protest was made to provoke public support and goad the manufacturer to respect his consumer rights.
James Bond's Daniel Craig wears a dress for March 8's centenary of the International Women’s Day, not to mention with a fluffy blond wig. Surprisingly agent 007 is an attractive woman. This is for a campaign to highlight the inequality to women around the world. The short film features the voice of Dame Judi Dench as M asking Bond if they are equals and if Daniel is a woman this and that. Daniel doesn't talk in the film but does a good job posing as a woman.
Although the film looks funny, it does deliver a serious message about equality between men and women. The films says that women does 2/3 of the work in the world and yet only has 10% of the income and 1% of property. It also says that at least one in four women are victims of domestic violence and every single week in the U.K. The short film is directed by Sam Taylor-Wood and is scripted by Jane Goldman.

Sam Taylor-Wood said: "Despite great advances in women’s rights, statistics show that when it comes to the balance of power between the sexes, equality is far from being a global reality. "
EQUALS spokeswoman, Esme Peach said: "We are thrilled that Sam Taylor-Wood, Daniel Craig, Dame Judi Dench and such a prestigious production team agreed to create this powerful short film for EQUALS."
Jennifer Aniston seems to have created a "sex tape." There is a trend on youtube and other sites that generate a lot of hits and Smart Water advertisers used that and put it on the ad. They jokingly said in the ad that this is a viral video and marketed it as "Jen Aniston's Sex Tape" because they putted some scenes that have the usual viral video contents like adorable puppies, dancing babies, a fat man crying at a rainbow and plenty of shots of Aniston tossing around her blonde hair.
