Better than Streaming: Do You Have Ben-Hur 4K Blu-Ray In Your Collection?

March 6, 2026March 6, 2026carlocarrasco

Welcome back fellow geeks, Blu-ray collectors and movie buffs!

I previously blogged about what was back then the upcoming release of the 4K Blu-ray of the classic and multi-awarded movie Ben-Hur (1959). In recent times, my copy of Ben-Hur 4K Blu-ray arrived and having replayed the movie using my Xbox Series X console, I can say that I had a grand experience watching it and it looks better than ever!

To begin with, my set came with two 4K Blu-ray discs (one disc with 100 Gigabytes and the other with 66 Gigabytes in capacity) that carried the movie in two parts in native 4K visuals (there was an intermission in the film itself). The other disc (50 Gigabytes) contained mainly the special features and extras which should delight the long-time fans and moviegoers who want to learn more about the movie, who was who and what the film’s history was about.

*This is the first 4K Blu-ray disc which contains the first portion of the movie of 2 hours and 20 minutes. Behind it is the 2nd 4K Blu-ray disc and the special features-only disc (green).*

With regards to my personal viewing experience, I can say that Ben-Hur looks very stunning in native 4K visuals. With the 4K resolution, I was able to spot some tiny details I did not notice before. The colors look more vibrant compared to what I saw on DVD and on cable TV, and the same can be said about the clarity (the lighting and contrasting were adjusted with better visuals in mind). There is also a boost on the sharpness.

I did not spot any visual blemishes and the all the way until the very end, the film looked more lively than ever before. That said, the famous chariot scene is at its greatest in native 4K. Not only that, the great cinematography captured by the team of director William Wyler also looks better than ever. For a preview of how much an improvement Ben-Hur 4K Blu-ray is over the previous Blu-ray disc release, watch the video below and look closely at the still images compared.

Adding more impact to the visuals, unsurprisingly, are the very solid performances of Charlton Heston as Judah Ben-Hur, Stephen Boyd as the antagonistic Messala of the evil Roman Empire, Haya Harareet as Esther and Hugh Griffith as the loud Arab to name a few. The actors’ performances deserve your attention, especially when it comes to following the story and remembering the personal directions each character took and how they developed over time.

It is now safe to say that the visuals of Ben-Hur 4K Blu-ray are truly excellent and the extra stuff provide good enough value for those who want more from the movie. I am very happy with Ben-Hur 4K Blu-ray and I will replay it again soon. Viewing the classic movie in native 4K and with lively colors is a grand experience which streaming cannot match! It is easily one of the very best movies in my 4K Blu-ray collection now!

*This is my copy of Ben-Hur 4K Blu-ray. It is easily one of the very best in my personal collection of 4K Blu-ray movies!*

Two Suspects Arrested In Parañaque City For Selling Fake Luxury Bags

March 6, 2026February 28, 2026carlocarrasco

Recently in the city of Parañaque, two individuals were arrested by the local police for selling fake luxury bags, according to a news report by the Manila Bulletin. The law enforcers responded to a complaint filed by a victim.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the news report of the Manila Bulletin. Some parts in boldface…

Police arrested two suspects in an entrapment operation for allegedly selling fake luxury bags on Thursday afternoon, Feb. 26.

The suspects were identified as Glen, 25, and Imel, 29, both residents of Barangay San Isidro, Parañaque City.

They were arrested at a dining establishment along Aseana Avenue in Barangay Tambo during an entrapment operation conducted by members of the Station Intelligence Section and the Investigation and Detective Management Section, in coordination with the AFP Army Intelligence Regiment.

Police said the arrest stemmed from a complaint filed by a 29-year-old call center agent, who reported that the suspects sold her a fake “Birkin” bag from Hermès worth P700,000 last Feb. 7.

The victim told police that the bag was confirmed to be counterfeit after it underwent validation and authentication.

Authorities conducted the entrapment operation after the victim reported that the suspects contacted her again, offering to sell a “Kelly 25” bag from Hermès worth P950,000.

During the arrest, police recovered from the suspects a white Kelly 25 bag and a black Kelly 25 bag, both branded as Hermès, as well as items bearing brands such as Chanel and Coach. A magnifying loupe glass was also seized.

Authorities likewise confiscated several mobile devices, including an iPhone 13, a Samsung Galaxy 11, a Tecno Go Spark 2, and an iPhone 6, along with P2,000 in cash and 98 pieces of boodle money.

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What do you think about this recent development? If you are a resident of Parañaque, are you thankful that the local police officers were successful in arresting the suspects? Do you know anyone who was fooled into spending a high amount of money on fake products?

“Muntinlupeño First” Emphasized In Mayor Biazon’s Speech

March 5, 2026March 3, 2026carlocarrasco

During the 31^st City Anniversary celebration of Muntinlupa City, the concept of “Muntinlupeño First” was emphasized by Mayor Ruffy Biazon during his State of the City Address held on March 2, according to a Manila Bulletin news report.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the news report of the Manila Bulletin. Some parts in boldface…

Mayor Ruffy Biazon emphasized the principle of “Muntinlupeño First” in his State of the City Address (SOCA) during the celebration of Muntinlupa’s 31st Cityhood Anniversary on March 2.

For Biazon, the phrase was not a rhetoric but a governing standard, a discipline that requires every government decision to begin with one question: “Makakabuti ba ito sa Muntinlupeño?” (Will this be good for Muntinlupeño?).”

He said public funds are sacred, that policy must be driven by evidence rather than expediency, and that true progress is built on systems, not personalities.

“When we put the Muntinlupeño first, we do not merely move forward. We move forward — together,” he said.

Strengthening systems – In his address, Mayor Biazon listed the achievements and outlined the city government’s continuing priorities in health, education, livelihood, environment, social justice, peace and order, and infrastructure, underscoring that disciplined governance produces measurable outcomes.

In healthcare, his administration continues to focus on maternal and child health, particularly during the first 1,000 days of life, alongside expanded nutrition interventions and intensified immunization efforts.

At the city-run Ospital ng Muntinlupa, improvements are ongoing. The Emergency Room has been renovated, while the Out-Patient Department now operates in a new building designed to improve patient flow and comfort. Renovations are also in the pipeline for the patient rooms, dialysis center, laboratory facilities, operating rooms, and pharmacy.

“These are not cosmetic changes. They are deliberate investments in quality, safety, and dignity in healthcare delivery,” said Biazon .

Investing in education and local opportunity – Biazon reaffirmed the city government’s commitment to sustaining one of the largest local scholarship investments in the country, alongside strengthened technical-vocational training and industry partnerships aimed at linking education directly to employment.

“We are not only producing graduates. We are cultivating professionals. Opportunity must not depend on circumstance, it must be built into the system,” he said.

In employment, he reiterated the principle behind the 70–30 Local Employment Ordinance, which mandates that at least 70 percent of a company’s rank-and-file workforce be composed of Muntinlupeño residents.

“Muntinlupeño First remains clear. We protect local workers — but we also adapt responsibly to ensure that opportunity continues to come home,” he said.

Recognizing partners in progress – As part of the cityhood anniversary program, the city government recognized the top 10 taxpayers, whose contributions help fund scholarships, healthcare services, infrastructure, and social protection programs.

“Without you, we would not be able to implement programs that uplift hundreds of thousands of Muntinlupeños. Your contribution translates into real services, real opportunities, and real impact,” said Biazon.

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this recent development? If you are a resident of Muntinlupa City, are you satisfied with the current state of the city? What can you say about the local business environment, the quality of local healthcare and the efficiency of services rendered by the City Government? As a citizen of Muntinlupa, do you feel like you are valuable resident?

What to watch on YouTube right now – Part 126

March 4, 2026February 26, 2026carlocarrasco

Welcome back my readers, YouTube viewers and all others who followed this series of articles focused on YouTube videos worth watching. Have you been searching for something fun or interesting to watch on YouTube? Do you feel bored right now and you crave for something to see on the world’s most popular online video destination?

I recommend you check out the following videos I found.

#1 Dead Rising Revisited – I can hardly believe that it will be twenty years since I first play Dead Rising on a rented Xbox 360 console. Released by Capcom in August 2006, Dead Rising is a zombie apocalypse adventure game developed by a Japanese team with Keiji Inafune (Mega Man) as producer. As its story was mainly set in a shopping mall, the game was easily compared with the Dawn of the Dead movies. When I first played it, I was hooked as the gameplay was pretty playable and the in-game action was entertainingly exaggerated. That said, now is a good time to revisit Dead Rising with the video below.

#2 The Binions In Las Vegas –I have toured Las Vegas twice in my life. Still, I never actually visited Binion’s Gambling Hall and Hotel which is located in Downtown Las Vegas on the Fremont Street Experience. Historically, it is know as the place where the World Series of Poker started and it had a unique gambling atmosphere with classic table games and low-limit slots. However, if you look even deeper into the history of the Binions place and the family that originally owned, there is something darker and intriguing to discover. Watch and learn from the video below.

#3 Night Of The Living Dead (1968) Revisited – What is there to say about the original Night of the Living Dead movie from 1968? The George Romero-directed zombie apocalypse movie has long been declared as the most definitive zombie horror movie and was considered as the turning point in horror film-making. As such, it is not surprising to see the movie (in public domain since the beginning) featured in multiple movie reaction videos and retrospective videos on YouTube. For your curiosity and enjoyment, watch the videos below.

#4 Notable Places Beneath Tokyo Tower – The last time I toured Japan was way back in 1997. During that same trip, I visited Tokyo Tower and enjoyed a fine view of the city several feet above ground. As our city tour moved on a somewhat tight schedule, I was not able to fully explore Tokyo Tower. That said, Nippon TV posted recently a video about the places to shop, visit and dine beneath the famous tower. Watch and learn from the video below.

#5 Street Fighter Alpha 2 SNES Version Examined – Back in 1996, I was an avid arcade gamer and Street Fighter Alpha 2 was my favorite among the many 2D fighting games available in local arcades. In late-1996, copies of Street Fighter Alpha 2 running on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) were displayed in game stores which caught my attention because I never expected the console to be capable of processing the game and making it playable (note: Street Fighter Alpha games of the time were prominently released on PlayStation and Sega Saturn). To examine closely the quality of the SNES port of Street Fighter Alpha 2, watch the video below.

#6 Democrats’ Chuck Schumer Proved Himself Pathetic – Do you have a high-ranking representative or leader in government who does NOT care about you and the nation at all? The Democrats of America today are a bunch of unhinged, twisted, wicked and unpatriotic people who do not really care about the American people. One of them is the Democrats’ leader in the US Senate Chuck Schumer who prioritized the rainbow pride flag over America. Watch the video below.

Filipina Worker In Israel Killed By Iranian Missile

March 4, 2026March 3, 2026carlocarrasco

As the Islamic terrorist state of Iran – which lost its demonic Ayatollah Ali Khamenei – kept on firing missiles and drones at several locations in the Middle East in retaliation to the joint US-Israel military operations, a Filipina worker in Israel got killed by an Iranian missile and already the embassies of both the Philippines and Israel expressed their condolences to the victim’s family, according to a news report by the Manila Bulletin.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the report of the Manila Bulletin. Some parts in boldface…

Israel’s embassy in the Philippines has expressed its condolences to the family of the Filipina caregiver who was killed during an Iranian missile attack on Tel Aviv amid the ongoing Middle East conflict.

Mary Ann Velasquez de Vera, 32, from Basista, Pangasinan, lost her life when a missile struck her apartment on March 1, according (to) the Israel Embassy in Manila. Before this, she was still assisting her patient to safety while she, herself, was already injured.

“Mary Ann, like so many overseas Filipino workers in Israel, exemplified resilience, compassion, and quiet strength,” the Israeli Embassy in Manila said.

“She was identified by her husband, who is also an overseas Filipino worker in Israel, and their family,” it added.

“Israel joins in the profound sorrow of her family and the Filipino community. We mourn together and honor Mary Ann’s memory with dignity and respect. May her soul rest in peace,” it also said.

The Philippine Embassy in Tel Aviv also conveyed its condolences to the bereaved family through a phone call made by Ambassador Aileen Mendiola to her husband. Mendilola assured him of the Philippine government’s full assistance.

In a separate news report by GMA News, Israeli Ambassador to the Philippines Dana Kursh confirmed that the Jewish state has committed to providing lifetime support to the family of the victim. Under under Israeli law, the families of individuals injured or killed during a conflict — whether Israeli citizens or foreign nationals — are entitled to lifetime benefits.

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this recent development? Do you think the Philippines should suspend diplomatic ties with the Islamic terrorist state of Iran? Do you think the terrorist regime of Iran should be held accountable for attacking civilians with missiles and drones so indiscriminately? How long do you think the conflict in the Middle East will last? Are you hoping that Trump’s America, Israel and all the affected nations of the Middle East will band together to end the Islamic terrorist government of Iran? Did you notice any Islamist in your local community expressing support for Iran and Islamic terrorists?

Road Safety Park In Muntinlupa City Inaugurated

March 4, 2026March 3, 2026carlocarrasco

During the 31^st City Anniversary celebration of Muntinlupa City, the much-awaited Muntinlupa City Road Safety Park was formally inaugurated by the City Government and the Department of Transportation (DOTr) in Barangay Tunasan on March 2, according to a news report by The Manila Times.

For insight, the Muntinlupa City Road Safety Park is a 3,140 square-meter interactive facility designed to emphasize to children the rules of traffic and traffic discipline through on-location simulations. The facility is located at the Tunasan Baywalk. I first blogged about the road safety park in 2025.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the news report of The Manila Times. Some parts in boldface…

THE Muntinlupa City government has inaugurated its Road Safety Park in Tunasan village as part of the city’s 31st Cityhood Anniversary celebration, marking what officials described as a long-term investment in safer and more disciplined road use.

Established in partnership with the Department of Transportation, the facility is a learning space where children can learn proper road use through simulations and traffic signage.

The park features a mini road network, pedestrian lanes, cycleways, training areas, and road sign installations designed to teach students and young road users the fundamentals of traffic discipline in a controlled environment.

“Together with our 31st Cityhood Anniversary, we inaugurated the Muntinlupa Road Safety Park in partnership with the DOTr. This is a dedicated learning space where children can learn the proper use of the road through actual road simulations and traffic signage,” Mayor Ruffy Biazon said.

The mayor described the project as personal, recalling that while he was still in Congress in 2019, he filed a proposal to integrate road safety into the basic education curriculum.

*The ribbon-cutting done by Mayor Ruffy Biazon and DOTr acting transport secretary Giovanni Lopez with lots of guests as witnesses. (photo source – City Government of Muntinlupa).*

“I believed then, and I believe even more now, that discipline on the road does not start when getting a driver’s license — it starts while one is still young,” he said.

He added that teaching children at an early age about proper road use, respect for traffic laws, and understanding of road signs would help prevent future accidents and tragedies.

“Roads are a shared responsibility — whether you are a motorist or a pedestrian,” he said.

Biazon said the city immediately proposed the project when funding from the DOTr became available, emphasizing that the park allows children to learn through experience — not only from books but also through actual simulation.

Acting Transportation Secretary Giovanni Lopez and Metropolitan Manila Development Authority General Manager Nicolas Torre III attended the inauguration along with other transport and local officials.

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this recent development? If you are a resident of Muntinlupa City, are you delighted to see the Muntinlupa City Road Safety Park inaugurated and made accessible to the public already? Have you visited the facility already?

Japanese Prime Minister Urges Iran To Solve Conflict With America And Israel

March 3, 2026March 2, 2026carlocarrasco

Now that the demonic Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has been eliminated, the Islamic terrorist regime of Iran decided to attack not only America forces and Israel but also other Arab states with missiles and drones which easily caused travel and economic disruptions on the rest of the world. In response to what happened, Japanese Prime Minister Takaichi Sanae urged Iran to solve its conflict with America and Israel diplomatically, according to a news report by Kyodo News. She also demanded Iran to stop destabilizing the region.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the Kyodo News. Some parts in boldface…

Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi on Monday urged Iran to seek a “diplomatic solution” amid an escalation in the Middle East conflict following U.S. and Israeli strikes targeting Tehran.

At a parliamentary committee meeting, Takaichi demanded Iran stop any actions that “destabilize the region” including its nuclear weapon development, which she said is “absolutely unacceptable,” as well as attacks on its surrounding countries.

“We will work in coordination with the international community toward an early deescalation of the situation and continue to make every necessary diplomatic effort,” Takaichi said, without expressing her view on the weekend bombardment launched by the United States, Japan’s close security ally, and Israel.

Foreign Minister Toshimitsu Motegi said at the Diet session that no Japanese casualties in Iran have been reported so far, while the government is preparing for a possible evacuation operation for Japanese nationals in the region.

About 200 Japanese citizens live in Iran and 7,700 reside in total in the nations that have been attacked by Iran’s attacks, Motegi added.

The Japanese Embassy in Israel is planning to operate a bus for an evacuation as early as Monday, Chief Cabinet Secretary Minoru Kihara told a press conference. Organizing a large-scale evacuation in Iran is difficult, however, because airports are closed and land routes are dangerous, according to a source familiar with the matter.

Due to its heavy reliance on the Middle East for crude oil, Japan, a resource-poor country that has traditionally maintained friendly ties with Iran, has a vital interest in stability in the region.

The Japanese government is watching the situation around the Strait of Hormuz, an oil shipping route vital for Japan, with the U.S. and Israeli strikes prompting Iranian attacks on other Gulf nations in addition to Israel.

At this stage, the Japanese stock market fell down by 2% over growing concerns about the global economic outlook following the joint US-Israel attacks on the terrorist state.

In what looked like a desperate series of moves, the Islamic terrorist government of Iran launched even more missiles in the Middle East causing more damage, injuries and deaths. Iran made it clear it does not care about the civilians in the region and they are willing to hit the Arab states recklessly. US President Donald J. Trump released a new video message telling the oppressed people of Iran to take back their country.

For updates about what happened lately, watch the videos below.

Let me ending this post by asking you readers to pray to the Lord for victory, for the protection of the American and Israeli forces, for the safety of civilians everywhere, for the end of the Islamic terrorist regime of Iran to happen soon, and for the liberation of the oppressed Iranian people. Pray to Him to also bless US President Trump and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, as well as their respective administrations. Pray to God for more peace and stability in the Middle East.

March 3, 2026February 26, 2026carlocarrasco

Recently in the city of Parañaque, a wanted virtual assistant was apprehended by the local police for four counts of qualified theft, according to a news report by the Manila Bulletin. The police officers were armed with a warrant of arrest.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the news report of the Manila Bulletin. Some parts in boldface…

A female virtual assistant facing four counts of qualified theft through falsification of private documents was arrested during an operation in Parañaque City on Feb. 24.

The suspect was identified as “Maria,” 28, a resident of Barangay San Dionisio, and was listed as the No. 6 most wanted person. She was arrested by members of the Parañaque City Police–San Dionisio Substation along Dr. A. Santos Avenue.

The suspect is now detained at the Parañaque City Police custodial facility pending the return of the warrant to the issuing court.

Southern Police District (SPD) Director Brig. Gen. Randy Arceo said the arrest is a clear message that no one can hide from the law.

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What do you think about this recent development?
