Western vs. Asian

This presentation diagram was designed by Liu Young who was born in China and educated in Germany.

An interesting collection of pictograms showing how Western and Asian cultures differ based on a general perspective.

I actually received a similiar spam e-mail at work, but I decided to look for the actual diagrams and layout so here it is.

Wilbert Tolentino @ 2009 Mr. Gay World

Please support our very own WILBERT TOLENTINO (Guys4Men's TOPSHOOTER) in the upcoming MR. GAY WORLD 2009 to be held in Whistler, Canada on February 4-8.

It will be a part of the WinterPRIDE. Wow, parang gusto kong kumuha ng Visa to Canada now na, LOL!

VOTE HERE

This concern made a stir back at the Guys4Men forums. Let's take all issues aside and support our own. Not just because he's one of us, but as a fellow Filipino.

I tried very hard to point my mouse away to Misters Austria, Brazil and Czech Republic. Oh my!

Melinda Doolittle - Coming Back To You

This song was originally done by Macy Gray.

And I'm lovin' Melinda's version! She made it as if it was recorded during the 60's!

I imagined a music video for this one, pretty similar to the cover of her CD, with Melinda walking the streets of Philadelphia and should be filmed in black and white.

She has pretty great tracks on her upcoming album as well! I was fortunate to sample them all last weekend!
