How do you store your gadgets?
Two things: With the exponential increase in gear lying around the room, it made sense to find a worry-free way to store everything. After dabbling with an underwater DSLR housing, I NEED to become more OC when it comes to storage. The housing itself requires diligent maintenance at home. Which is why I sent Jan…

Philippines: Bongga Ka Dive! My idea on how to boost tourism
EDIT: Because I believe in localization, the vernacular tagline is now PHILIPPINES: BONGGA KA DIVE! As a diver, I am biased.

When the executive chef invites you to a steak dinner, say yes!
This is Chef Rhey Huergas, Executive Chef for Friday’s. Do a search for him on Google or Bing and you’ll see that he’s media-decorated. I met him because he’s the cousin of a friend I work with. We were at Friday’s at the time (DOH!), the day was a bitch, and boy were we hungry.…
