Star Wars: Commander





The game has a lot similarities with COC. You have your droids which is the equivalent to builders. Just like COC you need droids to make and upgrade buildings. You would also need gold and alloy for the upgrades.



Main difference is that you could sides. It is either you join the rebel alliance or align yourself with the empire. Choose wisely since you can't switch sides unless you restart the game.





They have a squad the equivalent of clan in COC. But I yet have to experience a Commander "clan war". I have join a squad but haven't been part of one. I am actually not sure if there is one.
I'll you posted as soon as I learn more about the game.

New Series: Z Nation



If you are looking for an alternative view on the Zombie Apocalypse, Z Nation might be the show for you. Alternative to Walking dead that is. It is like a comedic version of the Walking dead without the drama. It is similar to Zombieland. Although the show is not trying to be too funny and not too serious at the same time. If the Zombieland TV series took off, that would be my alternative Zombie Apocalypse. But unfortunately it the show did not get pass the Pilot episode.

The show is very different from other Zombie theme show. The zombies, for some reason, doesn't seem to be as mindless as other zombies. In the show zombies were running, knows who to play dead and set a trap for their umm. . . lunch and they seem to be capable of getting stone. Another difference is that in the show there seems to be hope for the human race. An inmate was injected with an experimental drug and after being bitten severely, he did not turn. The show revolves around the idea of getting that inmate to a CDC facility to produce a vaccine for the Zombie virus.

I'll give this new show a try. Currently I find Z nation quite entertaining.

Pilipinas Gilas loses to Argentina


Who would have thought a few years back that the Philippines would be able to compete in the FIBA Basketball world cup? Everyone thought that it would take the Philippines a few more years to qualify. But they surprise everyone. For the first time in nearly 4 decades, the Philippines would be able to compete against the top basketball teams around the world. 

When they qualified last year everyone thought they Philippines would be a push over. But we were proven wrong again. Then number 34 seed Philippines faced the world's number 3 Argentina. Argentina has the advantage in size and experience. We thought it would be blow out. We were proven wrong yet again. 

Philippines made sure that they wouldn't go down fighting. The Philippines got a lead as high as 10 points during the first half of the game.In was three beyond the arc for both teams. De Ocampo and Alapag had the most 3 points shot for Gilas. Norwood had a great performance that night. The highlight of his performance for the that game was 2 slam dunk in the face of NBA superstar Luis Escola. 

A few seconds left in the game and the score was 83 to 81 in favor of Argentina. Castro tried to tie the game or get the lead with a three point shot. However he failed to release the ball and was call for the traveling. In the end the Philippines fell short. Final score was 85 to 81 favoring Argentina.

Despite not having won any games in the FIBA Basketball world cup this year, I am very impressed with Philippines' performance. Considering it has been nearly 4 decades since the Philippines last qualified they are doing quite well. What I mean is that I was expecting that could not go head to head with bigger teams in FIBA. But it hasn't been a walk in the park for the opposing team. Crotia only won by 3 points, Greece by 12 points and today Philippines lost by 4 points. That something to be proud of. I was honestly expecting Philippines to lose by 20 or more points each game but I am dead wrong.
Next they face Puerto Rico. I hope they do get their 1st win against Puerto rico

A selfie might land you in Jail


This is one of the weirdest news that I have heard all week. Taking a selfie may soon land you in jail if you are not careful. The house bill no. 4807 or anti-selfie bill was authored by Rep. Rufus Rodriguez of the 2nd District of Cagayan de Oro. Currently it is on its's second hearing in the House of Representative but is currently being greatly oppose by both majority and minority members of Congress. 

Why wouldn't they oppose it and what was the author thinking when he wrote the bill? Almost everyone has taken a selfie and banning it would be a sure violation of freedom of expression.
The photo below was from a article from Yahoo and states what the proposed bill is all about 



The bill is pretty vague and it is very unclear what would constitute an unlawful selfie. Why would they even consider this bill anyway?

Now it is armed with walls and defenses that has keep them safe from the angels. Vega is led by two powerful families, the Riesens and the Wheles. General Edward Riesen is the lord of the city while Consul David Whele wants the power to rule Vega for his own agenda.

Leading the Angels that plans to exterminate the human race is Gabriel. He was able to convince the lower angels to side with him. But unlike Gabriel and Michael, the lower angels has to possessed a human body to stay on earth.

The baby is now grown up. Alex Lannon is now a Sergeant serving under the Archangel Corps. His father Jeep has left him when he was young trying to decipher the tattoos that he will eventually pass on to Alex when he is ready. Jeep returns to Vega after disappearing for fourteen years. He tells Michael that Gabriel is still alive and is massing an army to finally annihilate the human race.



Shortly after his return, he was fatally stab by a higher angel disguised as a human child. Before dying, Jeep passed on the Tattoos to Alex. The first message that he was able to decipher says "Beware of those closest to you". It is revealed that David Whele's son William is enleague with the Archangel Gabriel.

When I first heard of the series I wasn't really excited. The film Legion kinda sucks after all. But I gave it a try and was really interested in watching the next few episodes. I think the show still has a lot of mystery for the viewers. I just hope the show stays on air. You know how hard for new shows to get pass the first season. Fingers crossed! What are your  thoughts on the new Dominion TV series?
