Version Update Issues with Chrome using Google Chrome Portable

Why is there a need to update your Google Chrome browser version or other browser you may have?

This is in order for you to install the recent updates to fight against security threats online. One other thing also which is very obvious is to install browser compatibility on viewing websites you visit.

What to do if you get an error updating your Google Chrome browser?

Due to firewall and security settings you may have at home or in the office, installing updates may give error messages, such as the following;

An error occurred while checking for updates: Update check failed to start (error code 1: 0x80004005).


Update failed (error: 7)An error occurred while checking for updates: The installer could not connect to the Internet. Ensure that your computer is connected to the Internet and your firewall allows GoogleUpdate.exe to connect then try again.


This kind of error messages are indication that your network administators are restricting your access to update your browser or other software.

This is when you may download and install your own Google Chrome Portable browser.

Google Chrome Portability

Yes! Talking about portability, main thing about Portable Google Chrome is for you to have it installed on your USB drive and have it handy wherever you may need it using other computers.

Download the Google Chrome Portable from the portableapps.com website.

Nestea Commercial

Right now, I am one of the biggest fan of this Nestea TV Commercial.

Nestle Philippines TV Commercial: Nestea "OK"


Nestle Philippines TV Commercial: Nestea "Thank you"


I just love how Nicos (Neil Coleta) portraits someone very in love with Mattina. Haha..

Neil Coleta also stars other TV commercials like the recent Tortillos Commercial as Ken and the "6 Senses" in Voice Combo Sandwich Commercial.

"Hug ka na lang din namin Nicos!" ;)

Video City Cebu

I often would walk some streets before or after work to get familiar with the places. Just last month, I discovered a place nearby that I can rent movies.

These are NOT pirated movies. Of course, why would I rent pirated movies if I can buy the same price of a pirated copy? Much more, the quality of it's video would only make you throw away your remote control if you find the video freezes at the middle of the movie!


What and Where?

Video City is the place that I am telling you about. Here in Cebu, this is located at Hi-Way, Mandaue, a few steps from Jollibee Mandaue and across the North Atrium Building. This is where I just recently rented videos.

Membership

The membership would only require you to fill out an information sheet, a few questions, one valid ID with picture and a Php5.00 as a membership fee. You will then receive your Video City Membership Card.

Rent Fees

Video rent fees is PHP16.00 and they have some other promos, too. Price will then change every now and then but are still affordable.

How to Get a BIR TIN ID Card?

Acquiring a TIN ID means that you have your Tax Identification Number (TIN) already. Instructions on getting your TIN number will be provided by your company that you will be working with. Mostly, this is one of the requirements before you'll start your training at work. They may provide you the necessary BIR forms as well as a Certificate of Employment necessary to authorize your application for a TIN.

How to Get a BIR TIN ID Card, before?

I got my TIN ID last year 2007. The process was very slow. As far as I remember, I filled out an information slip that was given to the assigned person. I was informed to be back after two weeks to get my TIN ID printed.

How to Get a BIR TIN ID Card, now?

Well, I appreciate the recent process as I observed. You just need to fill out two copies of the information slip and you go to the assigned person to get your TIN ID printed. No payments necessary.

But, How about Getting a New TIN ID because you got your ID lost?

The same process but you need to pay Php 100.00 before your TIN ID gets re-printed.

I hesitate when the assigned person informed me to pay first. I thought of looking my TIN ID at home and hoping to find it sooner before I badly needed it as a requirement for claiming important documents that requires two or more valid primary/government IDs.
