Pagmamahal ng Ina, Masusubukan sa 'Hiram na Puso'

By Night Owl on 2:54 AM

Filed Under: ,


Magsisimula na ngayong Lunes, March 5, ang pinakaaabangangang drama sa hapon na tiyak na hihipo sa damdamin ng bawat manonood at kukwestiyon sa tunay na kahulugan ng salitang “pagmamahal” – Hiram na Puso.

Itinatampok sa Hiram na Puso sina Kris Bernal, Bela Padilla, Polo Ravales at Mark Herras kasama sina Candy Pangilinan, Ana Marin, Wynwyn Marquez, Marc Acueza, Ayen Laurel, Gardo Versoza at si Ms. Gina Alajar.

Ang Hiram na Puso ay tungkol sa pambihirang pagmamahal ng isang inang gagawin ang lahat – kahit ang paglaban sa kanyang konsiyensiya -- para lang mabigyan ang kanyang anak ng pagkakataong mabuhay. Si Zeny (Gina Alajar) ay isang nursing student na mabubuntis ng kanyang boyfriend, ngunit hindi siya pinanindigan nito. Magsisilang siya ng kambal ngunit sadyang mapagbiro ang tadhana sa kanya dahil ang isa sa kanyang kambal na anak ay may malubhang karamdaman sa puso at mangangailangan ng agarang operasyon. Ngunit dahil walang wala si Zeny, naging desperado siya hanggang sa may lumapit sa kanya at nag-alok ng tulong kapalit ng kakambal ng batang may sakit. Sa kagustuhang iligtas ang kanyang anak, tinanggap niya ang alok. Pagkatapos ng operasyon, tinupad niya ang usapan at ipinaampon niya ang isa niyang anak. Ang natatanging anak naman na natira sa kanya ay pinalanganan niyang Lira (Kris Bernal).

Pagkalipas ng halos 19 taon, bumalik ang sakit sa puso si Lira, at ang makakapagligtas lang sa kanya ay isang heart transplant. Ngunit walang pera at kuneksiyon si Zeny para makahanap ng organ donor para sa kanyang anak. Isang gabi, nakasaksi si Zeny ng isang hit-and-run accident na kinasasangkutan ng isang dalagang halos ka-edad lang ng kanyang anak. Isusugod na sana ni Zeny ang biktima na si Angeline sa ospital ngunit napagisip-isip niya na kung hahayaan niyang mamatay ang biktima, maaari niyang hilingin sa mga magulang nito ang kanyang puso para sa transplant ni Lira. Hindi muna isinugod ni Zeny ang biktima sa ospital. Ngunit matapos ang ilang oras, dala na rin ng pagkabagabag ng kaniyang konsiyensiya, nagdesisyon siyang itakbo na sa ospital ang naghihingalong dalaga. Ngunit huli na ang lahat. Na-comatose si Angeline at tuluyan itong namatay. Palibhasa hindi alam ang totoong sinapit ng kanilang anak, nagpasalamat ang mga magulang ni Angeline na sina Leo at Roxanne (Gardo Versoza and Ayen Laurel) kay Zeny at buong-pusong ibinigay ang puso ng anak para sa operasyon ni Lira. Tuwang tuwa si Zeny dahil hindi na nawawalay sa kanya ang kanyang anak. Ngunit hindi magtatagal ay babawi sa kanya ang pagkakataon.

Pagkatapos ng heart transplant ni Lira ay mapapansin ng kanyang ina ang mga pagbabago sa pag-uugali nito. Ang dating mabait at responsableng Lira ay naging “party-goer” at napapa-barkada na. Tila nalipat sa kanya hindi lang ang puso ni Angeline, maging ang pagkatao nito. Ang mas malala pa, unti-unting mahuhulog ang loob ni Lira kay Prince (Mark Herras), ang lalaking ginusto ni Angeline. Ngunit si Prince ay gusto rin ng kambal ni Lira na si Vanessa (Bela Padilla), na walang kaalam-alam na ang kaagaw niya ay ang sariling kambal.

Habang tumatagal ay lumalayo na rin ang damdamin ni Lira kay Zeny, habang napapalapit naman ang loob nito sa mga magulang ng nagkaloob sa kanya ng kanyang puso.

Ginawa ni Zeny ang lahat, sinuway ang utos ng kanyang konsiyensiya, upang mailigtas ang kanyang anak sa bingit ng kamatayan. Ngunit ngayong ligtas na sa kapahamakan ang kanyang anak ay pilit naman itong binabawi sa kanya ng tadhanang lubusan niyang pinagkakautangan.

Sa direksyon ni Andoy Ranay, konsepto at panulat ni Suzette Doctolero, ang Hiram na Puso ay binuo ng production team na pinamumunuan nina Hazel Abonita (Program Manager) at Jojo Aleta (Executive Producer) kasama ang creative team na binubuo nina Jun Lana (Creative Director), Roy Iglesias (Creative Head), Des Garbes-Severino (Creative Consultant) at Suzette Doctolero (Head Writer).

Magsisimula na ang Hiram na Puso ngayong Lunes, March 5, pagkatapos ng Eat Bulaga sa GMA Afternoon Prime.

Taiwanese Heartthrob In-Love sa Bobita!

Talagang katakam-takam ang Taiwanese model, actor at singer na si Joe Cheng (nope, hindi siya anak ni Joe Mari Cheng. Joke yun?). Si Cheng ang bida sa napaka-successful na Taiwanese series na “It Started with a Kiss” na mapapanood simula ngayong Lunes sa Afternoon Prime ng GMA-7.

Ang pa-mystery effect na look ni Cheng at ang cute nitong mga labi ang talagang nagpapatili sa marami nitong fans sa iba’t ibang bahagi ng Asia. Ngunit ano itong napag-alaman naming medyo takot daw magmahal itong si Cheng dahil na-trauma sa paghihiwalay ng kanyang mga magulang noong bata pa siya?

Anyway, sa It Started with a Kiss, makakapareha ni Cheng ang aktres na si Ariel Lin. Si Cheng ay gaganap bilang Joseph, ang pinakamatalinong lalaki sa eskwelahan nila, pero hindi siya pala-kaibigan. Si Lin naman ay gaganap bilang Arianne, ang exact opposite ni Joseph na saksakan ng ka-shongakan. Sa unang araw ng klase ay makikita ni Arianne si Joseph at maiinlove siya rito (Agad agad? Bawal demure?). Ngunit deadma ang beauty niya sa binata dahil hindi nito type ang babaeng boba (ay antarrrayy!). Pero ma-chachallenge si Arianne at gagawin niya ang lahat para lang ma-meet ang standards ni Joseph at mapansin siya nito. Sa hindi inaasahang pangyayari ay pagsasamahin sila ng tadhana sa isang bahay at doon matitikman nila ang tamis ng unang halik na magpapahulog sa loob ni Joseph.

Abangan ang nakakaaliw at nakaka-in-love na kwento ng It Started with a Kiss simula ngayong Lunes, February 20, pagkatapos ng Broken Vow sa GMA Afternoon Prime.

Sa sobrang stressful ng buhay ngayon, dumarami ang nangangailangan ng napakasarap na hard and soothing massage, kaya naman naglipana ang mga massage parlor na hindi lang nagkukumpitensiya sa magaling na serbisyo kundi pati sa itsura ng mga masseuse. Siyempre kung chaka ang masahista baka lalo ka lang ma-stress, diba? Pero paano kung malaman mong ang taong nagmamasahe sa'yo ay matagal na palang patay, anong gagawin mo?

'Yan ang drama nina Katrina Halili, Paolo Contis at Antonio AquitaƱa ngayong Sabado sa Spooky Valentine presents "Masahista" ng GMA.

Gaganap si Katrina bilang Noemi, ang di matahimik na multo ng isang masahistang dating nagtrabaho sa massage parlor ni Patrick (Antonio AquitaƱa). Noong nabubuhay pa si Noemi ay nagkaroon siya ng romantic affair sa chickboy na kapatid ni Patrick na si Mike (Paolo Contis). Ngunit ni isa sa mga pangyayaring ito ay hindi maalala ni Patrick. Nasangkot kasi siya sa isang malagim na aksindenteng naging dahilan ng kanyang pagkakaroon ng locunar amnesia. Nang makalabas sa ospital si Patrick, bumalik siya sa kanyang massage parlor sa pag-asang makakatulong ito sa recovery niya. Pero hindi siya tatantanan ng multo ni Noemi. Tila may gustong ipahiwatig si Noemi sa kanya. Habang bumabalik ang alaala ni Patrick ay maiintindihan niya kung ano ang hinaing ng naghihiganting multo.

Ano kaya ang kaugnayan ni Noemi kina Patrick at bakit nagpapakita ito sa kanya? Paano ba namatay si Noemi at may kinalaman kaya rito si Mike?

Ihanda na ang powder o lotion dahil baka ma-stress kayo sa hardcore na takutan sa Spooky Valentine presents "Masahista," hahagod na ngayong Sabado, pagkatapos ng Manny Many Prizes sa GMA-7.

Riovana's Sole Healing: A Complete Story

By Night Owl on 10:17 PM

Filed Under:

Complete. The best word to describe Riovana's Sole Healing: the revolutionary recovery center for athletes and sports enthusiasts alike.

This hub boasts of having state-of-the-art physical therapy equipment and top-notch medical and sports practitioners as part of its core team. The whole team ensures their customers a heightened experience, one which will help them transcend from the troubles brought about by their sports activities, to bringing out their best through conditioning and post-sports treatment.

Complementing.

The kind of friendship which Dr. Gar Eufemio and Coach Jim Saret have, which brought about a powerhouse partnership: the MultiSportMatriX or MSMX. These two have been buddies since their days working with the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA). Since then, they have continuously lent their expertise in helping develop and maintain athletes' top form.

"I specifically requested to have Jim brought in. I knew immediately that we needed him in Sole Healing after Coach Rio explained to me his concept of creating a one-stop-shop for athletes. With my background in Orthopedic Surgery and his extensive experience in Sports Science and conditioning, I believe that, together, we will be able to provide more holistic services to our clients," said Dr. Gar, who is currently the President of the Philippine Orthopedic Society for Sports Medicine.

"Other members of MSMX include Dr. Jun Rafanan, the incoming President of the Philippine Academy of Rehabilitation Medicine and the current Chairman of the Department of Rehabilitation at The Medical City, and Dr. Philip Tan-Gatue, the Section Head of Acupuncture Services at The Center for Wellness and Aesthetics at The Medical City. As you can see, our different backgrounds allow us to deal extensively with various cases and tailor-fit solutions based on our clients' needs, " added Coach Jim, a consultant for the Philippine Olympic Committee and a certified conditioning expert.

"At the end of the day, we like working with each other. " Dr. Gar candidly stated.

Revolutionary.

Coach Jim: "Sole Healing is a one-of-a-kind recovery center that provides a complete line of services from sports conditioning to recovery. We offer packages guaranteed to keep one in tip top shape before, during and after every sporting event."

"What's good about Sole Healing is that our services are not limited to runners alone. In fact, we also cater to other athletes like basketball players, football players and the like. Even regular people like you and me who simply want to be as fit as possible," added Dr. Gar.

"We are proud of the services we offer here. Sole Healing is one of the few centers that offer cryo-treatment. Athletes complain of muscle and tendon soreness and joint aches during and after competitions and exercise. This slows them down in terms of training since they need time to mend. What we do with this machine is literally freeze the pain and swelling away. You only need a few minutes in one area, and we’ll get you back to working out in no time. Platelet-rich plasma, or PRP, injection is a simple clinic procedure and takes all of half an hour to finish. First, we extract 15 cc of your blood, place it in two test tubes containing a cell separator then spin it for a few minutes in a centrifuge machine. Afterwards, the athlete’s plasma rises to the top while the other blood components sink to the bottom. All the healing cells and growth factors (the good stuff) are in the plasma. We extract this and inject it directly into the damaged tissue, under local anesthesia of course. It is very well tolerated even by our wimpy patients. This treatment is quite popular nowadays and has been tried by Kobe Bryant, Tiger Woods and Brandon Vera."

Coach Jim: "We also offer other services like laser and ultrasound therapy, sports massage, acupuncture, kinesio-taping and full-body stretching among others. All treatments are handled by our top-notch, charming and energetic team of registered nurses and physical therapists. In-house consultants like Dr. Gar and myself are available for consultancy by appointment."

Dr. Gar: "What sets it apart from others is that it offers complete treatments backed up by years of experience. No need to go to another center for PT sessions or for acupuncture. Everything is in-house and offered here. Convenience is the main selling point. Oh, and the prices are very competitive too, considering the benefits of the services the center offers."

Moving Forward.

Coach Jim: "We look forward to expanding in the years to come so we can accommodate more people in need of our services."

"We also want to give back to our country by offering our services to deserving athletes. We feel we’ve been blessed with this opportunity to help others," added Dr. Gar.

This kind of treatment is nothing new to the team; Dr. Gar was the founding head of the UP-PGH Sports Clinic for ten years. This is the first multi-disciplinary center that treats our less fortunate athletes for free… Dr. Jun has worked with him here since it started. Coach Jim has been working with members of the national team for the past several years.

"But right now, what we would like to focus on is how we can continuously improve our services and live up to our commitment of providing nothing short of the best when it comes to pre-sports and post-sports treatment."

"We both look forward to healthier years ahead."

Visit Sole Healing at the 2nd level of Riovana at the Ground Floor, Active Fun Building, 9th Avenue corner 28th Street at the Bonifacio Global City (near Honda).

Tandang Alicia wants to stop her from being greedy; she will use her potion and will cast a spell on Esmeralda transforming her to look like an old tree. Sadly, Tandang Alicia’s life will be put to an end in exchange of the curse. Matilda grieves on the lost of her mother, but situation will soon change as soon as the cute little baby is born. She will be named ALICE.

Since Esmeralda feels the wrath of being cursed, she will command her minions to look for the granddaughter of Tandang Alicia hoping that she is the one who could break the curse and transform her back to a human form. Esmeralda succeeds of her plan in getting Alice but Matilda and Hilario fight back. Unfortunately, an accident takes place, putting Matilda and Hilario under a spell.

A loving farmer, Ipeng, will find the beautiful Alice but he finds a need to bring her to a charitable institution where he’s working. She will treat Alice as if his own and will look after her.

Alice’s life evolves inside the institution. She may not feel the love of her real parents but she will grow up as a good and a loving girl. Despite her goodness, she will experience being bullied by others because they think of her as a weird little girl. Since her childhood, there are always enchanting situations that are happening in the institution because whatever she utters happen. She is also fond of conversing with different objects as if they listen and most of all her laughter is similar as of a witch’s.

As she reaches her tween stage, the oppression intensifies making her feel that the only people who love her are Ipeng and few kids in the institution. However, things will change when she meets Ace, the guy who will give her hope and encouragement. They will build their friendship. Alice will treasure his friendship with him. Eventually, she will fall in love with Ace but Maggie, Ace’s mother, disagrees with it.

Maggie will drive Alice away from the institution but before it happens a party takes place for Ace’s grandfather, Don Zaldy. Unfortunately, the institution will be set on fire which causes the death of Don Zaldy and Alice will be the person to blame.

Alice run away from the institution and will look for places where she can hide. One day, when she’s about to be captured, Esmeralda will pretend and make her believe that she is her real mother. At first, Alice wasn’t convinced that the lady who helped her ironically abandoned her before. But Esmeralda does everything to get her sympathy and will help her escape from all the people hunting her. Being born kind and yearning for mother’s love, Alice will treat Esmeralda as her mother and will do anything she says.

In a twist of fate, Ace and Alice path crosses. He still believes it was Alice who planned the death of his grandfather. The feud is born between them and will persist because of Esmeralda’s manipulation.

In fighting for the truth, Alice will be punished by Esmeralda. The situation worsens but a good friend will help Alice escape from the evil Esmeralda.

One day, Alice learns the news that Lola Andeng is sick. She will go back and will take care of her. When the night comes, the moonlight beamed on Lola Andeng. The truth will unfold that she is Matilda, her long lost mother. Because of the heartbreaking situation, Alice made a promise to not leave her mother and will protect her from all catastrophes.

Sadly, Esmeralda and her minions will find them and what makes it more painful is seeing Ace and Ipeng bewitched by the servant of darkness. Alice finds the need to unleash the witch inside her in order to save herself and her loved ones.

Up to what extent is she willing to cast spells just to fight for her loved ones? Will love and goodness triumph over the power of darkness? Will the power of friendship brings back the closeness between Alice and Ace?

JC Tiuseco Mas Type Jumowa ng Non-Showbiz

By Night Owl on 6:34 AM

Filed Under: ,

Sa set ng Kokak ay ibinunyag ng Kokak star na si JC Tiuseco sa ilang miyembro ng entertainment press ang pagiging malamig ng kanyang Valentines’ Day ngayong taon dahil zero daw ang kanyang love life.

Sinabi naman ng very much “papable” na aktor na kung sakaling magka-girlfriend siya ay gugustuhin niya na non-showbiz, simple, mabait, understanding at down-to-earth ang kanyang magiging girlfriend (‘di kaya madre ang hinahanap ni JC? hahaha). Pero nilinaw naman ni JC na hindi siya nagsasalita ng patapos dahil hindi niya alam kung magkakagusto rin siya sa isang kapwa artista. Kung sakali ba, maari siyang magkagusto sa kasama niya sa Kokak na si Sarah Lahbati?

“Magkaibigan lang kami,” ang showbiz na sagot ng gwapong aktor sabay tanggi na siya ang napapabalitang dumadalaw sa bahay ng aktres para manligaw.

Abangan ang muling paghaharap nina Kara at ng babaeng naging dahilan ng kanyang pagiging palaka ngayong linggo sa Kokak, Lunes hanggang Biyernes pagkatapos ng Eat Bulaga sa GMA-7.
