Eugene Domingo and Wendell Ramos Spice up your Thursday nights with Hot Mama!
GMA Network spices up your Thursday nights with an outrageously funny and irresistibly hot episode of SRO Cinemaserye. Roll off your seats with non-stop laughter as the humor gets naughty and playful in “Hot Mama”.

Eugene plays the role of Dr. Lola Cardenas, an alluring psychiatrist/sex therapist populary known as Hot Mama. She hosts a late night radio program where she gives sex and relationship advice to callers who ask questions about love and intimacy.

Hot Mama is single, lonely and desperate for love. She soon finds herself obsessed with Bruce, her executive producer/friend. But… he is already in love with her cousin/manager Mari.
Devastated for being loveless, Hot Mama focuses her attention on her career and gets herself busy in using the social networking site Facebook. Here, she meets Randy, on of her avid fans from Cebu.
Lola is intrigued with Randy and after a while, a special friendship develops between them.
Randy is extremely excited to finally se her in person. But Hot Mama doesn’t want him to meet the real Lola. She is not confident that people would accept her as plain Lola.
What will Hot Mama do if Randy shows up to meet her? Will Randy accept the real identity of Hot Mama? Will the two lovers become the perfect sweethearts?
Hot Mama’s amusing storyline and talented cast is set to tickle the hearts of viewers every Thursday night beginning March 11 right after Queen Seon Deok on GMA Telebabad.
I’m sitting backstage at the Arie Crown in Chicago. I finish here on
Saturday night after 6 sold-out shows! Two on Saturday, then I leave here
at 11pm to fly to L.A. After a few hours of plane sleep..LOL…I have to
be up pretty early on Sunday for a long, fun, exciting day! And this is
why; I don’t know if you know this or not, but I’m presenting at the
Oscars! So strange, I became an Academy member last year and, this year,
I’m asked to present. How cool is that?! Catch it this Sunday night if
you can. 6 Nominations for PRECIOUS – I’m so happy for them.
I’m also thankful for the NAACP Image Awards. PRECIOUS won several
awards, as well as “House of Payne.” I received the Chairman’s Award. It
was a great moment for me. I was pretty much on the same travel schedule,
BUT it was great.
In all that I do, it is important to me to inspire and encourage, and that
is what I tried to do with my speech. Not sure if you saw it or not, but
I’m sure someone has put it on YouTube by now…LOL. I’d love for you to
see it, and if you do, I hope that my words inspire you.
I’ll try and check in next week but Monday I go right back to the show.
Well, talk soon.

MANILA — Nacionalista Party (NP) presidential bet Manny Villar may face a disqualification case after giving away scholarship grants to his supporters, the poll body said Friday.
Commission on Elections (Comelec) Commissioner Rene Sarmiento said the act may be considered vote buying, and thus violated the Omnibus Election Code (OEC).
Section 261 of the OEC states that vote buying is when a person “gives, offers or promises money or anything of value” in order to induce anyone to vote for or against any candidate. (Sun Star Cebu, 2010) [Read the rest by clicking the linked text or the link below.]

- Hispanics in America – Culture and Mexicans, Cubans, Venezuelans: http://EzineArticles.com/3807918 #
Despite Vicki Belo’s promises to stay away from Hayden Kho for at least 5 months, she just can’t seem to stay away. Vicki says she is still in love with the scandal ridden Kho and has even went so far as to say she is "addicted" to Hayden! Those are some strong words Belo.
Well, there was the drug scandal, so maybe she is really addicted to something else that he had to offer her, if we knew the whole truth!
What do you guys think?

Find Out How Some Hispanic Cultures Acclimate to the Mainstream American Culture
Analyzing Hispanic groups in America is a long and informative journey. Hispanics are not just one culture of people; they are a multitude of different cultures with different political views, customs, religious, familial, and other conventions that make each group unique and at times similar to the others. In this paper the author will introduce you to four different Hispanic groups. The Mexican Americans, a culture that is rooted in Mexico and trying to blossom in the United States; the Puerto Ricans, already considered United States citizens, but not always treated the same; Cuban Americans, who have left a country in political and economical turmoil to make a better life for themselves; and the Central Americans, consisting of people from many different Central American countries.
Mexican Americans
Mexican Americans have been in the United States for many years. They have traditionally been viewed as migrant workers who would come and do farm work or work in orchards and then return to Mexico. They have changed from the role of migrants to immigrants. Mexican Americans typically speak Spanish and are being taught, in bilingual classes, the English Language.
Mexican Americans have many values that differ from the values of a typical U.S. citizen. According to Mexico: language, culture, and etiquette, (2004), the familial values of Mexican Americans are different than those of the normal values held by U.S. citizens. The core of the Mexican-American social structure lies with the family. Women, while greatly revered, are still seen as secondary to their husbands; the husbands are seen as the authority figure and the decision-maker for the family. Families are typically very large and the extended family is considered just as important as the immediate family.
Catholicism is the religion of choice for a large portion of Mexican Americans. According to Weisman (2004), “…Mexicans endorse holding greater moral-religious values than do their Anglo-American counterparts.” In U.S. politics the Mexican American people where left outside, until Alberto Gonzales, a Mexican American, was appointed as the United States Attorney General. Many Mexican Americans do not make typically make as much money as their Anglo-American counter parts. “Among third- and higher-generation men in 1989, Mexicans averaged 21 percent lower wages than non-Hispanic whites…” (Trejo, 1997) These figures are a bit aged, but one can almost count on the fact that the figures have been reduced over the years; there is still a significant economic gap. Language barriers may be part of this, though as the years pass this is becoming less of an issue.
Puerto Ricans
Puerto Ricans are considered U.S. citizens, as Puerto Rico is a territory of the United States. Puerto Ricans are typically very proficient in both English and Spanish, making life for them in the United States somewhat easier. In contrast to Mexican Americans, according to Fukuyama (1993) forty-percent, now probably more, of Puerto Rican Families are headed by women. Religion for Puerto Ricans is as diverse as their Anglo-American counterparts. Puerto Ricans may be Baptist, Catholic, Methodist, Muslim, or any of the other worlds religions. Many Puerto Ricans that live on mainland United states live in or around New York city. “The term ‘Nuyorican’ is used to identify New Yorkers born in Puerto Rico or of Puerto Rican descent who live in or near New York City. The word Nuyorican derives from a combination of the words ‘New York’ and ‘Puerto Rican’” (Magaly, 2006).
