MANILA, Philippines- Basketball star James Yap has confirmed that he and his wife, Kris Aquino, are no longer living in the same house, and that attempts to settle their differences have so far not been successful.

Yap went to the Aquino family’s house in Times St., Quezon City on Thursday and talked with brother-in-law President-elect Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III.

Part of the conversation was about his problems with Kris, Noynoy’s youngest sister.

Yap said he and his wife haven’t spoken since Kris left their home Monday night. He said he has been busy with basketball practice for his game on Sunday.

He also said that he’s thinking if he will be attending the inauguration of his brother-in-law on Wednesday (June 30.)

Kris, in a text message, told Gretchen Fullido of ABS-CBN News that she had a long talk with her sister Thursday night about her marriage to Yap.

She added she and James have tried to save their marriage for months now, but have been able to resolve their issues. Read full article here.

Been thinking a lot whether to have my desktop upgraded or sell it and buy a new Sony VAIO out of that money. I know it’s not much but at least it won’t go wasted like that.

I asked a friend who is into technical, and he said that if we upgrade the system, it’ll cost around P6k where you can buy something better rather than spending much and not sure if it’ll serve you more for a longer time.

So there, if one interested buyer shows up, I’m selling it!

When was the last time you took a drive through a neighborhood with the well manicured, lush lawns that you just don’t see too much of these days? Sunday drives used to be great for going into town or through the outskirts of town where you could enjoy the countryside and enjoy the elegance of it all. Well, now you can see the gorgeous lawns in your own backyard.

Gardeners and horticulturalists alike seem to agree that the zoysia grass offers the strength and thickness that prevents weeds from growing and adds the lushness that almost looks like fake grass. The even growth and lushness found when you use zoysia grass seeds is unlike any other. Strong enough and healthy enough to enjoy the sun as well as thrive in the shade, this grass is well liked by so many homes, especially those who live in particularly drier areas.
