The Honda Civic is one of those cars that has generated
a huge following in the Philippine market
Even today, you'll still see 6th and 8th generation cars
plying the road
and that trend, well, it looks like its gonna continue
Last year, Honda Cars Philippines introduced this
the all-New Civic
It's sporty, aggressive styling, and turbo technology
made waves when it was first introduced
So much so that Honda claims it received over 1,200 reservations
right after its official launch
That's a lot of cars
The exterior needs no introduction because
well, look at it, it obviously stands out on its own
Overall, it looks striking, aggressive, and isn't short on sportiness
Up front, the sharp looking LED headlamps, the gloss black grille
and the angular bumper make the Civic look like a mean machine
Like somebody poked the beast. Don't do it, don't do it. Aah! You did it
On its side, it's got straight character lines, protruding wheel arches
and 17-Inch wheels. Adding to its sportiness is a sloping roof line
which gives it sort of look like a fastback appeal
The rear…
Don't move, let me flip the car around for you
The most dramatic of changes has got to be with the rear
I mean check it out, it's got a massive bumper, huge LED taillights
and of course a rear spoiler. We feel that Honda's done about right
with the exterior design of the Honda Civic
and we know most people are gonna like it too
The RS has a driver-oriented layout and black interior
When you're in the driver seat, the first thing that you'll notice
is this massive screen that is your tachometer and speedometer
flanked by a temperature and fuel gauge which is complemented by red bars
Now, all of this is all inside some honeycomb configuration
and it's actually pretty cool because as you're driving along
you feel like you're… I don't know, playing a really cool game on an Atari
Wait… Did i just say Atari?
Tito of Manila alert!
It's got some pretty fun toys too like an 8-way power adjustment driver seat
power folding side mirrors, speed sensing door locks, a touch volume control on the steering wheel
paddle shifters, a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Apple and Android connectivity
a rear camera, and rain-sensing wipers
Now while there are a number of ports that you can use
they're not the really easiest to get to. You see they're located behind the console
Here, at the back. Now, some people say it's great because
it takes away the clutter of all the wires, but in this case, it's just
Well, it's just bothersome and that is pretty much of a hassle really
The rear, now that's gonna surprise you
With its fast back like appeal, what its done is that it reclined the seats
a bit more than most. In turn has given you an enormous amount of
leg and headroom. Definitely enough for your three average Filipinos
But don't get me wrong, I don't wanna take away anything
on the sportiness of the car
I mean the bolsters are still there and you can definitely feel it
But the seats are so comfortable that it's a shame that there is no vent or ports back here
because you could so kick back, Netflix and chill. It's that comfortable
Driving the Civic around town is easy
thanks to its light steering and good forward visibility
Maneuvering tight corners in the metro, not a problem
Plus it absorbs bumps within reason
It's on the open road is where it really impresses us
You see, we figured that this is essentially the same engine
that's driving Alonso's car
Sure, he's got a 1.6, we've got a 1.5
He's got a turbo, we've got a turbo
we've got 173 horses, he's got..
Maybe a bit more, but he does have reliability issues
Low blow? Sorry
Kidding aside, power from the 1.5L turbo engine is more than enough
allowing us to overtake with ease and a lot of fun
The turbo kicks in at a relatively low rev and delivers a proper amount of torque
At speed, the car is planted and stable
and the steering tightens up to deliver a firm and accurate response
To taper its acceleration, the car needs time shy of a moment
to allow the turbo to calm down and let the brakes do their work
Additionally, the suspension leans on the firm side
but the overall ride comfort isn't compromised
The Honda Civic RS Turbo is yours for Php 1,425,000
Quiet a bit of coin considering what else is out there
But, it does have a legion of followers and
it was 2016's Car of the Year Award Philippines
So, that's got to be worth something, right?

Paul McDonald & Ashwath Rajan, Bodega Founders: 5 Fast Facts You Need to Know
From Rajans Facebook and McDonalds Instagram Bodega founders Ashwath Rajan and Paul McDonald.
Google veterans Paul McDonald and Ashwath Rajan want to make even bodegas obsolete with a new start-up they decided to call "Bodega.
" They have even created a cat-shaped logo inspired by social media's love of bodega cats.
Essentially, their plan is to replace the stores with fancy vending machines.
After the launch received a negative reaction on social media, McDonald published a Q&A, insisting that they don't think their business model will put real bodegas out of business.
The duo announced the launch of the project in a Fast Company interview and it was quickly ridiculed on Twitter.
"Bodega" became a national trend, with thousands of Twitter users complaining about the idea of taking away one more iconic part of New York.
"If you replace my bodega with a f**king box i will launch you into the sun," one person wrote.
"Despite our best intentions and our admiration for traditional bodegas, we clearly hit a nerve this morning.
And we apologize to anyone we've offended," McDonald wrote.
"Rather than disrespect to traditional corner stores — or worse yet, a threat — we intended only admiration.
We commit to reviewing the feedback and understanding the reactions from today.
Our goal is to build a longterm, durable, thoughtful business and we want to make sure our name — among other decisions we make — reflects those values.
We're here to learn and improve and hopefully bring a useful, new retail experience to places where commerce currently doesn't exist.
Here's what you need to know about their idea and the founders behind it.
They Want to Replace the Bodega With a Five-Foot-Wide Box Unlocked By an App.
Twitter/PaulMcDonaldPaul McDonald, the co-founder of Bodega.
In the Fast Company interview, McDonald and Rajan explained that they want to install five-foot-wide pantry boxes filled with the stuff you would usually buy at a bodega.
The box would be unlocked with an app and a camera will notice what you picked up.
Your credit card will then be charged based on what you picked up.
If this becomes a reality, you could restock your fridge without needing to even physically hand your money to someone.
"The vision here is much bigger than the box itself," McDonald told Fast Company.
"Eventually, centralized shopping locations won't be necessary, because there will be 100,000 Bodegas spread out, with one always 100 feet away from you.".
The duo launched a website, Bodega.ai, although there is no further information about the project.
They do have their cat logo, which can also be seen on a shirt worn by McDonald's son in an Instagram video.
In a blog post, McDonald insisted that he doesn't want to put real bodegas out of business.
"Corner stores in places like NYC are a model for this — they're on nearly every block and serve their local neighborhoods 24/7.
We're trying to use technology to bring some of that same ease and convenience to everyone by putting tiny stores right where people live and work," he wrote.
They've Already Secured $2.5 Million Funding From Investors & Tested the Idea in the Bay Area.
McDonald and Rajan started getting funding for the project last year.
They told Fast Company that Josh Kopelman at First Round Capital, Kirsten Green at Forerunner Ventures, and Hunter Walk at Homebrew have all invested in the project.
Senior Facebook, Twitter, Google and Dropbox executives are also backing their idea.
TechCrunch reports that McDonald, who has never lived in New York, and Rajan have raised $2.
5 million already.
"Retailers are contouring their business around this fact that users want convenience," McDonald told TechCrunch.
"There's really only been two options: you can go to the store, or you can order something online.
What we're trying to do is introduce a third option, a new way of buying things.
Shrink the store, bring the best parts in a smaller form factor and bring it to where you are.".
They already launched Bodega in the Bay Area, with 30 locations at apartment lobbies, dorms, offices and gyms.
They want to use data to figure out what the 100 most-needed items are to figure out what each box should have.
Once you buy an item, they get information that the box needs to be re-stocked and they send a person out to do that.
"Each community tends to have relatively homogenous tastes, given that they live or work in the same place," McDonald told the magazine.
"By studying their buying behavior, we're hoping to eventually figure out how the needs of people in one apartment building differ from those in another.
We could customize the items in one dorm versus the next.".
By the end of 2018, McDonald hopes to have 1,000 locations.
McDonald Claims He's 'Not Particularly Concerned' About Offending the Hispanic Community By Calling the Venture 'Bodega'.
Fast Company asked McDonald if he thought using "Bodega" as the name of the venture might be seen as culturally insensitive.
"I'm not particularly concerned about it," he told the site.
"We did surveys in the Latin American community to understand if they felt the name was a misappropriation of that term or had negative connotations, and 97% said 'no'.
It's a simple name and I think it works.
Frank Garcia, the chairman of the New York State Coalition of Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, who represents bodega owners in New York, told Fast Company that he would try to block McDonald from allowing them to install boxes in the city.
"I would ask my members not to allow these machines in any of their properties in New York State," Garcia told the site.
"And we would ask our Hispanic community not to use the service because they are not really bodegas.
Real bodegas are all about human relationships within a community, having someone you know greet you and make the sandwich you like.
A recent Bodega Association of the United States, Inc.
survey found that there are 16,500 bodegas in New York City and 85 percent are owned by Latinos.
McDonald Co-Created Google Consumer Surveys & Worked at Google for 13 Years.
McDonald worked at Google for 13 years, starting in 2003, after graduating from the University of California, San Diego, notes his LinkedIn page.
He was also an adviser on Scoop Technologies and a Board Member of COMPAS Technology.

Yellowstone volcano eruption explosion catastrophe Вулкан Йеллоустоун извержение катастрофа 2017 - Duration: 2:26.
The Yellowstone super-volcano can explode at any time.
It is in the US and has the dimensions of a large city - 50 by 70 kilometers
The ruins of the crater of the super volcano were discovered only 50 years ago
It turned out that under the crater is a huge bubble of magma
The depth of this bubble is 8 km, its temperature is 800 degrees
If all this explodes, then we say goodbye to YouTube forever.
In general, there are 1500 volcanoes on our planet
Someone has long since fallen asleep, and what else is still smoking and ready to explode
When a volcanic eruption occurs, a large amount of molten magma leaves the surface of the earth
The eruption process can last from several hours to many years.
If the volcanic eruption occurs in the sea, then a huge tsunami wave occurs.
In addition to the usual volcanoes, there are also super volcanoes
There are only 20 of them on our planet
The eruption of such a super volcano will change the climate on the whole planet
The atmosphere will take off so much dust that the sunlight can not get on the ground for decades
Nuclear winter will begin
On average, such volcanoes erupt once in 100,000 years
The last time this happened 73 thousand years ago
Then on the whole planet there are only 10 000 people
Volcanoes are not only on our planet.
The largest volcano of the solar system is on Mars
Its height is 21 kilometers
In short, if you look out the window of your house and see a volcano there - it's better to move away from it!
