The rumors were true! 

*NSYNC reunites on stage to perform with the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard honoree Justin Timberlake. 

All five members were on stage performing a medley of their hits, including "Girlfriend," after busting into the middle of what had been a Justin Timberlake medley. 

And they got more than just the fans at home on their feet. The jaded crowd went crazy for the legendary boy banders.

Selena Gomez, Taylor Swift  and even a seashell-thong wearing Lady Gaga were jumping up and down to the former teen heartthrobs' star turn. And they weren't the only famous fans amazed by the reunion. 

However, one celeb who had a different reaction? Kim Kardashian.

The mom lightheartedly tweeted: "Best performance of the night @kanyewest !!!!!!!!!" to her beau and father of her daughter North West.

(LOL)

Now, this might be the best VMAs after all! 

And can 'N Sync come back for round two, please?!

Robin and Miley's performance and all of the major moments that got you buzzing. 

Miley Cyrus' headline-making VMAs performance had two major themes: twerking and teddy bears. Well, three, if you count Miley's tongue.

In case you've been living under a rock for the past four days, Miley Cyrus shocked the world Monday (Philippine timezone) with her scandalous performance at the MTV Video Music Awards.

Actually, shocked is even an understatement, considering Lady Gaga stripped down to a bra and thong onstage and no one seemed to really care because everyone couldn't stop buzzing about, tweeting about ands haring their OMG-reaction to Cyrus' scandalous booty-shakin' show. 

Despite Miley twerking like there's no tomorrow, unleashing some serious tongue action, stripping down to flesh-colored undies and grinding up against 36-year-old Robin Thicke on stage, a source close to Camp Cyrus insists "everyone is overreacting," noting that "pretty much everything on stage...we've seen Miley do in the video [for "We Can't Stop"]."

Take A Peek and Be A Duathlete

You might be familiar of the modern run/bike/run event called duathlon which has become the new interest of many athletes nowadays.

Duathlons are most similar to triathlons, with the key difference being the lack of a swimming leg. Other sports derived from triathlon include aquathlon, which combines swimming and running but has omitted the cycling part, and aquabike, with the swim and bike but no run.

I am not into real-racing in duathlon but I used to have the format-intervals in consistent cardio workout.

As I get to involve myself in this dry run training, I discovered a lot of things that helps me to enhance my resistance in both running and cycling.

My one way of beating a struggle is pulling the best kit, gear and supplements for the training.

Happy 51st!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY HANDSOME DADDY! Sorry about this vid...I made this actually intended for Father's Day but failed to upload and send to your email. But I tried to make things work to let everyone knows how handsome,skinny and bald you are way way back decades ago. #kidding

On a lighter and touchy note... Our childhood would be bland without your nurture, love and care. Our teenage days would be boring without your advice, pampering and humor. Our adulthood would be wasted without your support, friendship and guidance.

They say that from the instant you lays eyes on us, a father that adores his daughters. 

Whoever we grow up to be, we'll always have you like those little girls in pigtails. Because you're the person that would make us feel that everyday is Christmas and Santa lives on that small room in the house.

There are times that you would make a secret-promise in order not to see the awkwardness of our teenage years, the mistakes we've made or the secrets we used to kept.

In fact, THANK YOU is not enough to tell you how much we are grateful having you as our dad.I LOVE YOU Dad more than I love pizza and movies!!! #cheeseballs  NEVER GETS OLD,RIGHT?

Instagram vs. Vine

   















Currently most of you have heard of the epic battle between Instagram video and Vine.

   




















Vine, owned by Twitter, is an app that launched and that allows users to take six second videos. Instagram, the popular photo-sharing app owned by Facebook, also launched its own video feature months ago. The day Instagram video launched, Vine shares on Twitter dropped by 40% however, it might not be fair to write off Vine as obsolete just yet.

   


























Some articles in the past month dramatize Instagram video as the end of Vine. However, it is important to note that Vine, having created a culture of its own, already has a significantly strong user base, particularly among teenagers and young adults. Besides, instead of everyone just using Facebook, several applications, like Pinterest, Vine, Instagram and Tumblr, gained popularity due to serving specialized features and some users may want to keep videos and images separate. No doubt, Instagram video will have an impact on Vine’s usage and future growth. But Vine has the potential to rise above its competition and differentiate itself.

  



















Not only does Vine have a strong user base, but also Vine has created a culture of its own. In about four months of launching, Vine already had 13 million users, many of whom will continue to use the app. By encouraging users to create short and funny looping videos, Vine developed its own casual and quirky culture, appealing to youngsters. As the Atlantic said, “Instagram has video now, but not a video-making culture … Vine already has a community and maybe even a genre.” In fact, once Instagram video launched, Vine supporters exhibited their loyalty by making “#TeamVine” trend on Twitter.

   

















Another argument in favor of Vine is that Vine altogether it is very different from Instagram video, and so, depending on their preferences, people will use one over the other. Sure, both platforms allow users to create and share videos. However the videos themselves serve different purposes. Instagram’s mission is “to capture and share the world’s moments.” Users can set different filters to their videos, allowing them to completely change the settings and emotions of the videos. Videos are longer- 15 seconds, with no looping, which allows for compiling more serious, well thought and artsy content. Vine, on the other hand has a very simple interface where users create weird and funny 6-second videos that loop. Not that this is not artsy in its own way, however, it supports a more casual audience.

   




























Only time can tell whether Instagram will make Vine obsolete. Some of its features that Vine does not have, such as the ability to edit videos, do make Instagram video very appealing. At the very least, Instagram’s large user base will encourage millions to at least test the video feature out. However, for now, Vine is here to stay, and at the end of the day, the competition they provide for each other is beneficial for innovation, culture and the end consumer.

Refreshing Replacement

  


















After a long-struggling workout I always end up with heavy-body-sides and fast dehydration. Tho I tried so many water supplements it can't always help me from refreshing and replacing the fluids and energy that I loss. 

The session usually starts with a run and cycling that would make use of appendages while engaging in the period.

However the exertion of our body is constantly lashing that is why we need a supplement to boost the resistance circulation. 

POCARI SWEAT is a mild tasting, refreshing drink which replenishes body fluids lost through perspiration. It is quickly absorbed into the body. It is thus recommended as a beverage for physical activities such as sports and exercise.

The most notable thing about Pocari Sweat is what’s inside the product. Aside from water, Pocari Sweat also contains electrolyte minerals such as, Magnesium, Sodium, Potassium and Calcium. These electrolytes are lost by the body during perspiration. It is not enough to drink water alone because these electrolytes should be replenished to prevent spontaneous dehydration.
