LORD OF THE RINGS ONLINE

LotRO (or more properly, The Lord of Rings Online: Shadows of Angmar) may not change the way MMORPG’s are played, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. It’s a combination of the World of WarCraft’s Combat, Cities of Heroes deed system, Final Fantasy XI’s group manouvers, and a whole lot more! What sets Lord og the Rings Online apart from the pack is the music system. This allow your characters to play an instrument through the use of the keyboard’s numeric key pad like a piano. You can even make your own songs and jam with other players. On the minus side, character creation is a bit limited, and i wish it would have a PvP that did’nt limit you to just sending high-level monsters against players.

You can choose one from four available races in the game. This races includes:

Race of Man

Because humas get bonuses lie better melee damage an Morale regen during combat, its good to choose a class that plays to these strengths. While this race allows you to choose from any of the classes available, Humans can make Good Champions and Captains

Race of Elves

Though they have the lowest Morale among all the races, Elves can make good Hunters with ther hgh agility. Plus , a radical accomplishment somewhere down the leveling line increases Elves’ damage using bows.

Race of Dwarfs

Dwarfs are built for combat so choose a class like Guardian or Champion to take advantage of this. Avoid the Hunter class because you wuill be shooting a lot of arrows while putting up with decreased Agility. There are no female character available for Dwarfs.

Race of Hobbit

We’d say Frodo… but Frodo wasnt really a burglar. Hs uncle Blbo though is the aster burglar, which is an exellent class choice frp hobbits. With low Might but with high Vitality, though, practically any of the non -combat classes are Hobbit-worthy.

FANTASTIC 4~ PLAY STATION 2

Almost all of the scene in the movie are in the game, from our heroes getting their powers in outer spce to confronting the tunnel-dwelling Mole Man and their arch-nemesis, Doctor Doom.The Film’s actors even have digital counterparts in the game, and they’re wonderful to watch in the cut scenes between missions. The in-game action though, is’nt as amazing, and the repeated use of the team’s powers in beating up hundreds of bad guys can get boring pretty fast.

It more fun to play Fantastic 4 with a friend since the game supports cooperative play, but if you prefer going solo, you can switch control of team members while the rest fight along side you as backup, controlled by the computer. While there are some mini puzzles and quite a number of power upgrades to look forward to, the game’s focus on non-stop, repetitive action can easily wear you out.

The Film sound track is used in the game and all the actors do the character voices. Most of the cut scenes sound good, but in the actual game, hearing our heroes repeating the same lines over and over is more irritating than enduring.

The game takes over six hours to finish and you can unlock a whole bunch of goodies like movie trailers, actor interviews, comic book covers, concept art and more. The Arena Fight mode also lets you test your skills against computer or fellow players.

While Fantastic 4 is okay for a quick game with a friend, it probably won’t keep you interested long enough to finish the game. While it’s cool to play as the “Thing” not being able to bash down walls or throw trucks around can be very frustrating- and not able to fly more than a high foot as the “Human Torch” is just as bad.

My Addiction to Coffee

Posted by on September 15, 2009 in healthy living with No Comments

I am addicted into coffee since i was in high school. Even the weather is warm, i still drink coffee.

I am drinking 5-7 cups of coffee a day!

I want a strong coffee with less sugar and creamer. I make use of coffee as my daily energizer.

However, according to some doctors, too much Coffee consumption can lead to iron deficiency anemia in mothers and infants. Coffee also interferes with the absorption of supplemental iron.

Despite of this advantages of over consumption of coffee, it is still rich in antioxidants which helps preventing free radicals from causing cell damage!

I know that too much consumption of coffee is bad so i have to control my self. Tea can be an ideal alternative for coffee1 I think i must give it a try!

National Teachers' Month

Posted by on September 6, 2009 in education, events with No Comments

Today, we begin the month long Teacher’s Month Campaign(TMC) with the theme “My Teacher, My Hero” Now on its second year, TMC is in response to the call of the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) to celebrate the world’s Teachers’ Day meaningfully in October 5 every year.

Among the objectives of the month-long campaign are to generate widespread awareness and support for World’s Teacher’s Day; use the occasion to celebrate the unique role and service that teachers play in guiding the families, strengthening communities, and building the nation; revitalize the image of teaching as a vocation by increasing public awareness on the value of teachers in the Philippine society and national development; and assit current and retired Filipino teachers by coordinating a chain of establishments to provide value-added service or discounts to teachers.

We urge all possible cooperators,such as the coalition of the student coincils and organizations, consortiums of educational institutions and associations, bussiness establishments, professionals organiztions/ corporate foundations, and local government units to pay tribute to our teachers by preparing simple, creative, and meaningful activity that will affrim and celebrate the value of teachers to the community and nation.

It is hoped that through the annual month long campaign, the celebration of World Teachers’ day will be raised to the same level as that of Mothers’ or Father’s Day; there will be increased enrollment in education degree courses, and our teachers will be accorded the recognition and appreciation they deserve.

May this campaign encourage our teachers to stay in the profession and remain in the Philippines to continue playing their central role in guiding our children, the youth, and even adults, through the life-long learning process!
