THE Cebu City Sports Commission has achieved its first goal toward setting up a new world record in having a largest number of participants in a tournament.

CSCC chairman Edward Hayco told Sun.Star Cebu that as of Oct. 23, Cebu City had already achieved, although unofficially, their goal since the number of kids who have now participated in an in-school tournament is now close to 5,000.

“We have unofficially broken the world record since we have already hit close to 5,000 participants just coming from the public schools of Guadalupe, Don Ramon Duterte, Don Sergio Osmeña, Talamban, Labangon-Bliss among others,” Hayco said.

The current world record is held by Krasnoyork City of Russia with 1,214.

The classroom level of competition has been going on since the first week of October in most Cebu City public schools, while other schools are already holding a school-wide competition.

The knockout competitions are held daily after school hours or over the weekend in all school-wide or classroom-based competitions.

These competitions are continuous until the grand finale.

Hayco also announced the re-scheduling of the grand finals, which is now on Dec.10.

The schools that are participating in the CCSC’s Guinness World Record attempt are Don Sergio Osmeña Memorial National High School, Guadalupe Elementary School, Ramon Duterte MNHS, Labangon-Bliss ES, City Central School, Mambaling ES, Pardo ES, Zapatera ES, Don Vicente Rama ES and NHS and Talamban NHS.

CEBU CITY, Cebu, Philippines – The Metro Cebu Development Coordinating Board (MCDCB) has lined up a complete operational framework for Cebu, with the group set to present concepts pooled from public and private stakeholders to the Central Visayas’ Regional Development Council (RDC) for immediate implementation.

The MCDCB Board, chaired by Cebu Governor Gwendolyn Garcia, is currently forming various committees under the Board and is inviting multisectoral representatives to participate in a common vision to make Cebu “one of the most livable cities in the world.”

MCDCB co-chairperson Roberto Aboitiz said, “The framework for Cebu is such that all 13 cities in the province, from Carcar City in the south to Danao City in the north will collaborate as one and make a conscious decision to map out a long-term plan for Cebu. We should all move from being individual, broken cities to unite for a greater cause.”

Aboitiz noted that there is “a certain level of attractiveness” about seeing Cebu as a city-region rather than as a cluster of small local government units (LGUs).

In the last three weeks, six senior IBM executives from the United States, Sweden, Germany and Italy worked closely with various cities and municipalities in Cebu province through the newly formed MCDCB.

The team is part of the IBM Executive Service Corps (IBM-ESC), a variant of the company’s ongoing Corporate Service Corps pro bono community service program. Cebu was among the 11 cities worldwide who was made a IBM-ESC program beneficiary.

Said IBM executives work in teams with city planners, entrepreneurs, business leaders and governmental agencies to develop road maps identifying the best ideas, most scalable solutions and critical steps in the making cities economic, social and environmentally sustainable.

The IBM-ESC team presented to Metro Cebu stakeholders and Garcia a detailed report which includes observations and recommended policies, processes, and supporting ICT systems enabling Metro Cebu’s competitiveness in the global marketplace.

Also, the top IBM executives raised the need to address key issues Cebu currently face in terms of land use planning and zoning, transport & traffic management, and increased flash floods and worsening traffic which all hinder economic development.

Aboitiz said issues such as flooding, traffic, and water supply, for instance, are not concerns faced by just one city component in the province. “Foreign investors do not understand it when a given plan or solution is only limited to one territory and does not extend to a neighboring city. We can’t answer the world that way,” he said.

Meanwhile, Harold Robok, IBM director for general business in Germany, said they are promoting the idea of long-term planning so that Cebu can have a clear direction.

For her part, Garcia said “we are excited to be working with IBM in looking for smarter solutions that would better manage our public transportation and urban planning systems. Public-private partnerships like this helps ensure a greener and more integrated Metro Cebu.”

Chelo Aestrid: This Pinay is on the rise

At first glance, Chelo Aestrid’s flamboyant exterior and hip-hop swagger brings to mind a Pinay version of Gwen Stefani, Pink, Missy Elliot or the current shock and spunk queen herself Lady Gaga.

Despite her seemingly strong provocateur persona, this CEBUANA but California-bred multimedia artist is not at all about the hip-hop stereotype of glamorizing violence, sex, or a lifestyle of excess. Chelo’s infectious tunes dwell on Filipino pride, spirituality, love, and just pure positive vibes.

RECOMMENDED DOSAGE:

For skin whitening sessions : twice a week or every 3 days.
For faster whitening result: 1200mg per session (2 vials)
If you have achieved your wanted skin tone, maintenance of 2x/month is needed.

(if used with Laroscorbine Platinum Collagen it reduces fine lines, wrinkle, pigmentations and makes skin more supple )
(for glowing and younger looking skin, maybe used with Placenta IV)

WHITENING RESULTS:

Fair to Light Brown skin tone: 1 - 3 months
Medium- dark brown skin tone: 3 - 6 months
Darker skin tones: > 6 months

Whitening effects STILL vary with skin types and YOUR LIFESTYLE. Faster results are seen if you limit your alcohol intake, caffeine intake, smoking, and other forms of vices that might lessen the anti-oxidant effect of your glutathione and vitamin C. And of course, you still need to avoid too much exposure from sunlight.

ROUTE:
-Intravenous using a 25-27 gauge butterfly
( please take note that it should be done thru slow iv push. Remember, you have a small needle, do not force to push if you dont want your glutathione to spill or leak.)
- or, do direct IV/IM injection from the syringe
-should be done by a licensed NURSE, IV therapists, MedTech, or a PHYSICIAN.
--If you have any history of allergy and a first time user, it is advised to do a test by giving initial 0.5ml thru IV wait for 15-30 minutes and observe for any signs of allergy
