is this the end to hair loss and balding?


hello I'm Dennis, a blogger at LOVERBOYZ AVENUE, People who know me
regularly noticed that I wear a baseball cap in almost all my travels
WHY?

because at 42 yrs od age , I have a high hairline, I got hereditary thinning. in
short,  I'm bald at my age. and this is how I looked like without my cap.
and that has always been my problem, aside from an incomplete teeth.
I've done my research. and there is  little doubt that there is much change in the
field of hair loss research.

Scientists also look at everything from extracting growth factors from blood
(platelet rich plasma ) then re-injecting it into the scalp, to a number drugs as a
potential treatment. studies are also underway to investigate how stem cell
therapy and concentrated garlic can help people with various hair loss conditions.


The best way to proceed if you are experiencing issues with excessive shedding
or sudden hair fall is to consult a specialist ASAP given, there are proven products
available right now.  (a challenge!)


Unlike  cosmetic products, clothing line or an excursion, the service somebody
receives from a hair transplant gives lifelong, permanent results. So,  the cost required
could, and should be thought of as a long term investment. Since you are looking for
something “cheap”, then my advice is to call of that ambition to look for a hair doctor!
At this point, if your budget does not allow for a full priced procedure, then
you’re smart to save the money until you can afford it. No decent hair doctor
wants to give you a discount!

A doctor might advice for a hair transplant, but its for the rich boys out there!
Remember, you’re talking about your appearance and your health. sample:
 if you want a cheap car, then try to find one with 240k kms or higher. You
understand the risks that it will breakdown on out of town trips, and you’ll either
be left stranded and forced to pay repair costs! That is the risk you are taking with
a cheap car. With a hair transplant, you’re risking having a permanent, unsightly result.
Or even worse, you may have an uncomfortable or procedure which is risky to your
health.

then  my advice should be to try out what I was asked to test. let me share...
one day,  a friend gave me a Pm on fb messager, and asked me to try out this
product called Novu.

Say goodbye to hair loss and scalp problems with the newly-enhanced formulation of
Novuhair.  With 19 natural ingredients, the leading medicated topical scalp lotion is
 now 100% natural. it boasts of natural herbs, essential oils and co-factor nutrients
used for centuries, proven safe and effective in treating hair problems!

Made of herbal ingredients that include moringa oleifera, panax ginseng, virgin
coconut oil and the natural essences of rosemary and peppermint, Novuhair nourishes
the scalp and hair by increasing the flow of nutrients and improving blood circulation to
the scalp. Novuhair also helps hydrate the scalp, maintain the hair’s natural luster and
prevent early hair graying, hair dryness and itching.

if filipino music icon and idol Valenciano as their latest endorser. who am I not to
try it? Novuhair Topical Scalp Lotion, Shampoo and Conditioner are available in all
Mercury Drug Stores and other leading drug stores nationwide.

this is Dennis Ko signing out. I will blog about this again after a few months of trying
stay tuned!

public speaking

When I started public speaking in the a class by Mrs. Cangco in the mid-1990s, AMA COMPUTER COLLEGE
class of 1993, I was deathly afraid. 

It's taken me 20 years to get comfortable. I hope many of you are called upon to give speeches it's 
the closest thing to being a professional athlete that many of us will achieve. Here are  tips for 
giving great speeches: 

Have something interesting to say.  If you have nothing to say, you shouldn't speak. end of discussion. 

Cut the sales pitch. The purpose of most keynotes is to entertain and inform. It's seldom to provide 
you with an opportunity to pitch. For example, if you're invited to speak about the future of digital 
music, don't talk about the latest cellphones, gadget you are selling.

Focus on entertaining.   Many speech coaches will disagree, but the goal of a speech is to entertain 
the audience. If people are entertained, you can slip in a few nuggets of information. But if your 
speech is dull, no amount of information will make it great. If I had to pick between entertaining 
and informing an audience, I would pick entertaining.

Understand the audience. If you can prove to your audience in the first five minutes that you 
understand who they are, you've got them for the rest of the speech. 

All you need to understand are the trends, competition and key issues facing the audience members. 

Overdress.  Never dress beneath the level of the audience. To underdress is to communicate, 
"I'm smarter/richer/more powerful than you. I can't take you seriously, and there's nothing you
can do about it." This is hardly the way to get an audience to like you.

Tell stories. The best way to relax when giving a speech is to tell stories--any stories: stories about 
your youth,  about your customers, etc. When you tell a story, you lose yourself in the storytelling.
You're not "making a speech" anymore. You're simply having a conversation. Good speakers are 
good storytellers; great speakers tell stories that support their message.

Talk to them (the audience ) before the speech--especially the ones in the first rows. Then, when 
you're at the podium, you'll see these friendly faces. Your confidence will soar, you'll relax and 
you'll be great.

Speak at the start of an event. The audience is fresher. They're more apt to listen to you, laugh at 
your jokes and follow your stories. 


Practice, and speak all the time.

ber months is the start of more christmas related events because christmas is just a few more sundays ahead
so get ready for more events.


its BER months which means Christmas is almost here! We celebrate the longest Christmas in the world starting form September to March of the following year. christmas commercialism.


 DEN-R internet will have its 9th christmas this yr.
and guess what, radio stations started playing Xmas tunes two or three weeks ago. well, Christmas carols could be heard airing on mainstream as early as September! I always look forward to the first Christmas song I will hear for each year.


If you are so rich ... with family and friends, be warned that a very long list can cause a serious holiday bankruptcy,  So you may want to limit your list to those whom you really care about.
every year. I spend around 30-35k in holiday gifts, in Brgy 81 alone, there would be around 19 pedicab friends, 32 families from all corners of my barangay, and around 300+ customers, kids, teens, and adults, come for their chistmas presents from December 2nd wk til the day itself] usually in the form of cash. not counting my 30 Godchildren "inaanaks "

DEN-R through the years.


In 2 wks time from now, Sept 5 will be DEN-R internet's 9th yr in the business of giving quality service to neighbors of Bgry 81 Caloocan City.

Much have chaged through the years, a Total of 7 shops has challenged DEN-R, namely LOOKUP, VIRTUAL EXCHANGE, FREEZING POINT, SEARCH AND FIND, SINGULARITY INTERNET, THENET.COM & CASALS.

competitor Virtual Exchange Closed down March 2012


DEN-R has acquired Look-up internet in Nov 2009 and Virtual Exchange Internet in Mar 2012, the only competition now is THENET.COM the rest has been closed down.


LOOKUP has been acquired for 120k and has been renamed RUDENDER INTERNET 1
then 3 yrs after I acquired Virtual Exchange March 2012 and renamed it to RUDENDER 2 internet
then profit has been pretty good with 3 shops in my control.





In 2013  the local cafeteria style restaurant, - BJ Hipolito Eatery has opened up and challenged DEN-R with a 14 seats pisonet internet cafe, and this has proved my theory that if I dont go with what IN, then my sales will decline, and it has! for the past 8 yrs, DENR has never shut down, and for the first time, it did shut down its doors for a month and I have no choice, but to convert and innovate.
DENR has been converted to DENR 1peso-internet cafe.

Its  been quite a while [cant believe its been 7 yrs] since I last posted something, life in the internet  cafe industry has changed a lot over the span of 2 decades since the counter strike boom. IN games like Ragnarok, MU, RAN has already come and go[ for PH servers], the trend now is Dota style MMORG games like [dota 2, Heroes of Newerth , Leaque of Legends, and heroes of the storm] gone are the days where levelup [now bought by Asiasoft] is King, now, AsiaSoft Rules.[they bought companies like e-games and level-up] and if GameClub doesnt watch their back, and take care of Crossfire Philippines, then they will be "merged" by the  bigger company.


What I'm trying to point out here is, if we don't go with the trend, and the Whats IN, then we will be swallowed and "merged" by a company much innovative than we are.

internet cafes-what is DEN-R



Internet cafes are located world-wide, and many people use them when traveling to access webmail and instant messengers to keep in touch with family and friends. Some of them, especially LAN Gaming Centers, are also used for multiplayer gaming, having several computer stations connected on a LAN. In this case, the computers are specially assembled for gameplay, supporting popular multiplayer games. This is reducing the need of video arcades and arcade games, and many are being closed down or are being merged into Internet cafs.Internet cafes are a natural evolution of the traditional cafe. Cafes started as places for information exchange, and have always been used as places to read the paper, send postcards home, play traditional or electronic games, chat to friends, find out local information.Internet cafes are a natural evolution of the traditional cafe.aside fr new friends, i wanna mit cafe operators as well.


Access to the Internet typically requires, at a minimum, a computer with the right software, a modem, a telephone line, and a subscription to an Internet service provider (ISP). In the Philippines, the computer and modem would cost some P25,000 (US$500); phone and ISP subscription combined would require around P1, 000 (US$20) or more per month. This is definitely beyond the reach of most poor families, though perhaps within reach of the middle class, if they were willing to drop other daily expenses. At these costs, the Internet would definitely remain an enclave of the rich. To make the Internet more accessible to the ordinary citizen, the idea of telecentres, more popularly known as Internet cafes.The Internet cafe would take care of the hardware and connectivity requirements and a user needed only to pay a per-minute charge for access to the Internet. here it cost 20.00 per hour. 18 PCs opened from 8am-12am. Although still expensive for the typical poor who might be earning under P100 to around P500 each day (US$2 to $5), Internet cafes made the Internet somewhat more accessible to the middle class and some of the poor who might need it badly for a specific purpose. thats the mission of DEN-R internet.I would estimate that on any one day, 1/2 to 2/3 of the computers in use would actually be devoted to games (very violent and gory ones, at that). The remaining active ones would be split roughly evenly between online chat, word processing/printing, and browsing/E-mail, with a few somewhat more engaged in chatting.DEN-R internet caf will initially have 20 Pseats. All the computers in DEN-R are equipped with branded AMD Athlon64 3.0, 1GB memory & a 80 GB harddisk drive to add more power & speed to the machine. it also features 19" & 17" colored monitors for all the workstations and headsets for privacy. With all these advanced technology that DEN-R has to offer, a surfer would really feel the rush of speed and power of seismic proportions.


While broadband access and a computer system in each home is the norm in other countries, most Filipinos in our country still rely on the ubiquitous neighborhood Internet café as the main source for their Internet access and gaming needs. In this light, it is essential to promote and improve Internet café services to better serve the average Filipino’s demand for quality online content at broadband speed and world-class customer supprt


-DEN-R INTERNET -

It offers a host of Internet related services such as surfing, e-mail, IRC,network gaming & communicationservices such as printing, scanning and desktop publishing.In the future, There will be value added services such as computer Sales/pawning, Internet training for beginners & advanced levels from system trouble shooting to web page hosting.By end of Year 2006, the target is to put up 80 additional PCs upstairs and more branches that would be located in strategic and highly accessible sites in major cities throughout GMA. DEN-R's goal is to become the preferred cyber caf for the students and of the masses.

Each floor of this caf will initially have 20 PCs. All the computers are equipped with branded AMD Athlon64 and Sempron64 3.0 dual core Processors 1GB memory, 256MB graphics card and an 80 GB hard disk drive to add more power and speed to the machine. The caf also features 19" colored monitors for all the workstations and headsets for privacy. With all these advanced technology that DEN-R has to offer, a surfer would really feel the rush of speed and power of seismic proportions.
