Billy Crawford Transcript in DJ Mo 40 Forbidden Questions
How old were you when you lost your virginity?
Billy: Mom, go back to sleep...15.
Worst thing done drunk?
Billy: Got into a big fight. In France, in a club. I have a lot of patience, but when it involves loved ones, it's a different story. Some guy shouted bad words to my mother and my girlfriend in a club.
Who is a better performer, Billy Crawford or Gary V?

Have you ever cheated on a girlfriend?
Billy: Yeah, I was young and immature
Mancrush?
Billy: If I was gay, can I say Megatron from Transformers. No, I'd say Brad Pitt.
GMA is better than ABS-CBN because
Billy: GMA, because they're hotter. I started, grew up with GMA. Back then, people can bounce from GMA, to ABS-CBN, to RPN, but now, the competition is crazy. If you promote
something, you're stuck with one station.

Billy: I was really busy, from the airport to presscons. I'd say before I left LA, first week of June. I'm fully loaded right now, I'm ready to explode!

Andi9: People are calling that you're lying
Billy: You mean, people are calling that they think I'm smaller?!
What's the 7th message on your inbox?
7th message: from LAW: Super good, miss you already, lol
Billy: it's from my lawyer
Mo: You're lawyer, a male or female?
Billy: A male. No, I changed the name, it's not really from my male lawyer, its from a female, non-celeb, I changed the name to LAW to hide.
Give Kuya Germs a fashion tip/s?
Billy: I want to see Kuya Germs more in jeans, sneakers and a regular shirt on TV.
Who's a better kisser, Mandy Moore or KC Concepcion?
Billy: KC Concepcion because with Mandy, I was very young. Tita Sharon, don't kill me!
How many one-night stands did you have?
Billy: 5 to 8. I was cheated once or twice by a girlfriend, around 2000-2003, it's upsetting, so I did.
Have you ever hit on a foreign celebrity but was turned down?
Billy: Nadiya, a French celebrity. I nearly got there, my GF and I broke up. She's dark-skinned, pretty eyes

Craziest place you've done it with?
Billy: on a train, going to London I think...
Mo: in a restroom?
Billy: No, while seated.
Have you slept with anyone famous?

Billy: yes, it's in the house. I watched it once, what the heck was I doing? That was the girl who cheated on me too...
Bad encounter with a celebrity?

Billy: No, I didn't say that I've slept with Mandy
Mo: but the question says who's better in bed, Mandy or Lorie and you said, Lorie!
Billy: No, I didn't sleep with Mandy. I was lucky, with Lorie, she's hot! We were together for 3 years, I was older. With Mandy, we were young, we were
together for a year, her mother is strict, her mom is her manager, and her father is a pilot. I don't want planes crashing into my house.

The Most Powerful Words to Use on Your Resume

Karen Burns, On Wednesday 24 November 2010, 23:10 SGT
Last week we listed 50 buzzwords to avoid using on your resume. Some readers wrote to us asking, "What about a list of words I can use on my resume?"
Fair question. Unfortunately, there's no list of best words to put alongside a list of worst words. Why? Because the "best" words, sometimes known in the biz as keywords, are different for every job and every resume.
Fortunately for the job seeker, you can use tools to figure out which words are optimal for your resume. You'll have to be a bit of a detective. But, when you think about it, job hunting is a lot like detective work anyway.
Here are some clues to get you started:
The strongest words on your resume are almost always nouns. Not verbs. Employers and their software aren't scanning for "managed" and "assisted." They're looking for skills, certifications, degrees, job titles, names of products or services, names of processes, names of hardware and software, company names, names of professional or trade organizations, or names of schools.
[See 21 Secrets to Getting the Job.]
One great way to discover which nouns your potential employer cares most about is to study the job description. Use those nouns and noun phrases in your resume. For example, if the employer is looking for someone who knows how to "build customer databases," then those are the exact same words you want to use on your resume (assuming you know how to build customer databases).
Don't forget to spend time checking out your potential employer's website. You'll learn a lot about the corporate culture and maybe glean some valuable words to include in your resume. While you're at it, take a look at their annual report for more clues.
If you notice the same keywords on both the employer's job description and the website, not only should you use them on your resume, you should use them more than once. Some resume writers recommend using the most important keywords both in your objective (if you have one) and in the body of your resume, as close to the beginning as possible. That helps those terms stick out not only for a computerized keyword search, but also for the in-person resume reader.
[See 10 Seniors Thriving in Encore Careers.]
Discover more good words by joining your professional or trade organization and attending the meetings. Or at least read their newsletters. What are people saying? What are the titles of the speakers' talks? These words likely reflect the issues at the top of your potential employer's mind.
Take a hard look at your former job titles. If they're non-standard, or don't accurately describe you and your accomplishments, find out what the industry-specific standard title would be for your particular specialty. Either use that instead or use your actual title but expand upon it, using smart keywords to clarify your meaning.
Don't shy away from using appropriate industry-specific jargon or acronyms. Knowing the insider lingo puts you in the in-crowd. But if you're looking to transition to a new industry or position, and the hiring manager won't understand acronyms or jargon from your last job, remember to replace that lingo with a strong keyword.
When you do use verbs to describe your background, choose powerful ones. Try "achieved," "completed," "managed," "resolved," and "increased." Words like "contributed" or "supported" are less impressive. Keep in mind that your resume is the place to list accomplishments, not just job duties or responsibilities.
[For more career advice, visit U.S. News Careers, or find us on Facebook and Twitter.]
Avoid adjectives when talking about your skills and qualifications. Skip words like "dynamic," "experienced," and "strong." Instead, stick to nouns and (powerful) verbs. Be specific and quantitative when describing your successes and strengths, using percentages and dollar amounts. Also avoid adverbs like "skillfully," "effectively," and "successfully"--basically any word that ends with "ly." If a skill is on your resume, it's assumed that you can do it well.
Okay, so this isn't a simplistic list of best words for resumes. That's just not possible. But using these tips to figure out which words are best for you may just land your resume at the top of the pile.

Miss Universe 2008 Dayana Mendoza, who is the new Ambassador for Transparency of poll machine supplier Smartmatic, won't be having the chance to meet President-elect Benigno "Noynoy" Aquino III anytime soon.
In a chance interview with reporters on Wednesday, Smartmatic Asia president Cesar Flores said they tried to request an audience with Aquino but said that it probably won't be granted.
"I think he's very busy in putting together the Cabinet," he said.
Miss Universe 2008 Dayana Mendoza on Wednesday went to the Comelec office in Intramuros, Manila to meet and congratulate poll body officials regarding the recent nationwide automated elections. - Kim TanFlores noted, however, that they understand how busy the newly elected president is. "I think he's just doing more important things... we understand that he's very busy... maybe next time," he said.
Mendoza, the fifth Venezuelan to win the Miss Universe contest, arrived on Monday night and is scheduled to leave the country on Thursday.
On Wednesday, she went to the Comelec main office in Intramuros, Manila to meet with election officials and congratulate them for conducting a successful automated elections.
"Congratulations to the Comelec for such great work with the automation... the whole world is talking about it," Mendoza said.
The poll officials, headed by Comelec Commissioner Rene Sarmiento, were delighted by Mendoza's visit. "We are honored by the visit. We are happy by the visit of Dayana," he said.
Commissioner Nicodemo Ferrer even joked that if Smartmatic had brought Mendoza even before the elections, they would have "lessened" the number of their critics.
"We have to thank Smartmatic... without your help, we will not have a successful elections," added Commissioner Lucenito Tagle.
Commissioner Elias Yusoph noted, however, that they still have to conduct some special elections so it is not yet time for the Comelec to be thanking Smartmatic.
Smartmatic will also be donating 50 laptops to Habitat for Humanity and a public school in Tondo, Manila, on Wednesday afternoon supposedly as part of the company's efforts to educate the next generation of voters.
Mendoza will be present in both events. RSJ/LBG, GMANews.TV

Is it healthier to eat raw veggies or to cook them? Is fresh broccoli more nutritious than frozen? Is eating iceberg lettuce a waste of time?
You may be surprised by the answers to these seemingly simple questions. In fact, there are several misconceptions when it comes to vegetables. The one universal truth is that most of us could be eating more of them.
As summer approaches, we have more vegetable choices than at any other time of year. Here's a guide to what's fact and what's fiction when it comes to eating your veggies.
Myth: Fresh vegetables are more nutritious than frozen
Fact: Studies show that sometimes you can get more nutrients from frozen veggies, depending on variety and how old the vegetables at your supermarket are. That's because produce starts losing nutrient quality as soon as it's picked.
Frozen vegetables are flash-frozen right after harvest so they are preserved at their peak of freshness when they are most nutritious. Your best bet in terms of taste, nutrition, and the environment is still local in-season produce. When that's not an option frozen can be a better choice (from a nutrient standpoint) than spinach that takes two weeks to reach your table.
Myth: Cooked veggies are less nutritious than raw
Fact: It depends on the vegetable. "Cooking destroys some nutrients, but it releases others," says Marion Nestle, author of What to Eat. It destroys vitamin C and folic acid, according to Nestle, which is why it's not a great idea to cook oranges.
On the other hand, she says, cooking releases vitamin A and the nutrients in fiber and makes them easier to digest. It's also easier for your body to absorb more lycopene, a cancer-fighting antioxidant, in cooked tomato sauce than from raw tomatoes.
Steam or roast veggies instead of boiling, which leaches out water-soluble vitamins into the cooking water.
Myth: Iceberg lettuce doesn't have any nutrients
Fact: Iceberg lettuce is mostly water so it's hardly loaded with vitamins, but a large head does contain small amounts of protein, fiber, vitamins, and minerals.
You'll get more nutrients from other greens that have less water such as romaine or butterhead lettuce, but contrary to popular belief, iceberg lettuce does have some nutritional value.
Myth: Local vegetables are always cheaper
Fact: It's certainly true that local produce can be good for your budget. This is especially true during the peak of harvest when farmers need to get rid of an abundant crop and there is a lot of competition.
However, there are no guarantees. Local food "is not in any way subsidized so you are paying the real cost of producing the food, and the economies of scale are not there," says Nestle.
Some tips for finding the best deals at your local farmers' market: Shop at the end of the day when farmers are likely to mark down their prices in order to get rid of their inventory. (Go early in the day if selection is more important than price.) Ask your farmer for a volume discount if he or she doesn't already offer one. Take advantage of special deals on bruised or overripe veggies. Prices vary from farmer to farmer so shop around before buying.
Myth: Potatoes make you fat
Fact: Potatoes are virtually fat-free and low in calories. These delicious and inexpensive root vegetables contain a healthy dose of fiber, which can actually make you feel satisfied for longer and help you lose weight.
It's not the potatoes themselves that make you fat. It's how you cook them and what you slather on your spuds that can cause you to pack on the pounds.
Myth: Bagged salads are squeaky clean
Fact: They're not nearly as clean as you may think. Consumer Reports tests found bacteria that are "common indicators of poor sanitation and fecal contamination" in 39 percent of the 208 packages of salad greens it tested. It didn't find E. coli 0157:H7, listeria, or other disease-causing bacteria in its samples.
But it's still a good idea to give greens a good rinse to remove residual soil before eating even if the bag says they're "pre-washed" or "triple-washed."
Myth: Farmer's markets only have organics
Fact: Just because a vegetable (or anything for that matter) is sold at a farmers' market does not mean that it's organic. It still must be certified organic by the U.S. Department of Agriculture for a guarantee that it was grown without synthetic fertilizers and pesticides.
Some farmers will say they are in the process of getting certified, they grow crops without synthetic chemicals but can't afford the certification process, or they only use chemicals when they have no choice and don't use them when it's close to harvest time. It's your call on whether you trust that farmer.

It's not the potatoes themselves that make you fat. It's how you cook them and what you slather on your spuds that can cause you to pack on the pounds.
Myth: Bagged salads are squeaky clean
Fact: They're not nearly as clean as you may think. Consumer Reports tests found bacteria that are "common indicators of poor sanitation and fecal contamination" in 39 percent of the 208 packages of salad greens it tested. It didn't find E. coli 0157:H7, listeria, or other disease-causing bacteria in its samples.
But it's still a good idea to give greens a good rinse to remove residual soil before eating even if the bag says they're "pre-washed" or "triple-washed."
Myth: Farmer's markets only have organics
Fact: Just because a vegetable (or anything for that matter) is sold at a farmers' market does not mean that it's organic. It still must be certified organic by the U.S. Department of Agriculture for a guarantee that it was grown without synthetic fertilizers and pesticides.
Some farmers will say they are in the process of getting certified, they grow crops without synthetic chemicals but can't afford the certification process, or they only use chemicals when they have no choice and don't use them when it's close to harvest time. It's your call on whether you trust that farmer.

Willie ‘embarrassed,’ wants out of ABS-CBN

Barely a week after Willie Revillame publicly declared his disappointment at being verbally lambasted by Jobert Sucaldito (himself a ABS-CBN talent) in a radio show, he has asked to be released from his contract with the network that has been his home for many years.
With his decision, it seemed Willie has taken heed from his close industry ally, Cristy Fermin, who was also once a Kapamilya talent. Cristy had emphasized in interviews that if Willie wanted to switch sides in the network wars, he should first submit a letter to ABS-CBN seeking a release from his contract.
But that really is a necessary legal procedure, whether Cristy advises it or not. But the bottomline is that Willie wants out—due to frustration that the network has really not taken sides, especially not in his favor so far in this drama; exasperation over the continuing controversies that have hounded him since his MTB days; and what he reveals as his failing health.
In his letter to ABS-CBN, Willie was pretty much straightforward and clear:
“My devotion to the show is unparalleled that I have even been besieged by health problems due to the long hours I spend daily, thinking of how to bring “Wowowee” closer to the public. In fact, I have developed a heart blockage, which has already once posed a real threat to my life. I have sacrificed so much. Now, I have to accept the reality that I also have to take good care of my health,” Willie said in the letter.
He added: “Hence, it is very painful to hear every time my show is the target of unwanted and unnecessary tirades. I do not think that these people even have the slightest clue of what I go through to put together a show like “Wowowee”’. The show is not for me, but for those people who dream of a better life. Is it too much to ask that we be respected for what we do? Is it too much to ask that we be defended from such attacks?
“My outburst last week during the live presentation of the show is nothing more than a reflection of my frustration over these things, and was not at all meant to disrespect the network and its management. I implore you to understand that several incidents, which were beyond my control which have marred the reputation of the show to some extent, have already taken their toll on me,” Willie noted.
He further explained: “There was the “Wilyonaryo” incident wherein we were accused of deceiving contestants about their winnings; the Ultra stampede wherein I was blamed and severely criticized; the misunderstanding about my remarks when the coverage of the funeral of the late Pres. Corazon Aquino was unexpectedly shown in the giling-giling portion of “Wowowee”’s airing, for which I have apologized. In all these incidents, I took responsibility even if I was not at fault.”
Thus he declared that the main reason for leaving was to prevent further “embarrassment” to the network.
“I know that all these have caused so much strain on our relations and I would like to save the situation by asking that I be released as a talent of the station,” he said.
ABS-CBN said it will act on Willie’s request after a meeting with its controversial talent on Monday, May 24. According to Bong Osorio, ABS-CBN Corporate Communications Head, the network had long scheduled a meeting with Willie before the letter was first made public on Friday in Ricky Lo’s Philippine Star column.
“ABS-CBN believes that issues are best resolved when discussed with the parties concerned privately before they are made public,” Osorio said in a statement sent to Yahoo! Southeast Asia.
As of now, Willie remains uncertain about his future if ABS-CBN grants his release. There were talks TV5 was interested in his services. But the refurbished network denied making any offer to Willie.
However in the letter he mentioned: “(Should the network grant my release) I will have the much-needed space and time to contemplate on my direction in life and, at the same time, maintain the relationships I have built within the network, which are all worth preserving.”
