NTC: Smart is Better Than Globe
Yesterday, the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) confirmed the network superiority of Smart Communications, Inc. (Smart) following the release of the results of its network quality tests for the second quarter of this year which showed Smart posting significantly better test results than Globe Telecom.
Globe, however, issued a statement that attempted to turn the results of the NTC'S Quality of Service Benchmarking Test upside down.
According to that test, Smart’s network rated higher in four of the five parameters that had been defined by the NTC in consultation with all three mobile phone operators. These four important parameters where Smart posted better scores are: 1) Drop Call Rate; 2) Call Set Up Time; 3) Average Signal Quality; and 4) Average Receive Signal Level.
In its statement, however, Globe conveniently downplayed or disregarded these parameters and focused on the “blocked call” parameter, which was the only test that showed better results for Globe. On that basis, Globe said that its “legacy network” was better than that of Smart.
This is the same legacy network that Globe officials have admitted, in several recent occasions, to be congested.
This selective reading of the test results defies arithmetic, and, more importantly, flies in the face of consumer experience.
Globe’s press statement also contains a substantive misinterpretation of the test results in one of the key parameters – the Average Receive Signal Level. Globe said in its statement that: “The final metric is the Average Receive Signal Level with a minimum acceptable range of -85 dBm. Both telcos did not make it to the standard.”

Madness is not Justified
Image courtesy of www.en.wikipedia.org
First impressions last, but that is a general statement. Actors playing good-guy roles should not be taken at face value -- needless to say, let us not be fooled. This young talented actor TA badly needs a crash course on anger management. At a recent gathering of stars, TA allegedly got so drunk that he went ballistic and broke a few pieces of paintings inside a function room of a five-star hotel where the event was held. It seemed TA's love problems got the better of him.
Someone close to him revealed that TA had been nursing a very broken heart brought about by a spat he had with a pretty actress girlfriend AG. Heard from the source that the sweethearts were already not on speaking terms even prior to the big event. AG was overheard saying nasty things about TA as she was pointing to his photo in a catalogue. TA learned about it and that left him very hurt and inconsolable. Thus he found solace and comfort in the company of liquor - no matter how temporary. It could have been better had he stayed there and not gone overboard breaking valuables that were not his.
Both TA and AG have been sweethearts for a quite a time. They look good together as AG's sweet and delicate image compliments TA's macho and brusque persona. Being one of the network's leading actors, TA is often cast as a wholesome and upright character in both movies and tv. But the recent violence he got entangled into just proves what separates real from reel. Don't say you weren't warned.
Who are TA and AG? Please abide by the RULES in writing comments if you want them to be posted. Initials and comments that are too explicit will not be accepted.

Reticent Talent Piracy via Charity
Image courtesy of www.faceoutbooks.com
Talent manager TM has been in the business for years and has a stable of popular stars under his wing. As such, he was able to invest in some properties, particularly in condominium units. So far, he has 3 units in the Mandaluyong alone. As a manager, TM is quite generous to his new wards as he is willing to offer his place to them who will have need for a temporary dwelling. One of those talents is IA, an actor who made big waves in an indie movie he starred in. Now, TM has also offered his condo #2 to an aspiring hunk actor HA but who is not his talent. HA is an alumnus of a rival network's reality show and his connection/friendship with TM is kept a secret from his network.
TM is so smitten by HA and is said to be his latest "eye candy" and the beneficiary of his generosity. Not only is HA housed comfortably, he is also given out-of-town shows and other projects. Not only is he given projects, TM gives HA his talent fee TF in full, meaning without the customary agent's cut. All of that unbeknownst to HA's management network.
TM's scheme seems to be working because he also previously did the same thing to an ex-commercial model and hunk actor MA who had left his network and is now finally under his wing. TM seems to thrive on this, doing it without second thoughts. To those who know him, TM reasons that this is survival and he is only helping those who need it. As to his eye candy HA, how long will they be able to keep their connection a secret from his network? Is it just a working relationship or something else? If they deny it, why is TM often seen visiting and spending long hours with HA in his condo and leaving only in the wee hours of the morning?
Meanwhile, TM really believes it works. After all, his first and original eye candy - FA - is still with him and is one of the most in demand actors of his network.
Can you guess who are TM, IA, HA, and FA? Please abide by the RULES in writing comments if you want them to be posted. Initials and comments that are too explicit will not be accepted.
