			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Top Phenomenal Franchise Reality Show That Hits</strong></p>
<p>Reality Shows have also creep into the Philippine television wherein back then there was none, and if there is, it is not that such a big hit and it is an imported foreign show, like the Wheel of Fortune, If the Price is Right, etc, which is of course yes a Game show; a game show is categorized as a reality show then, but now on our modern times, the working definition of reality show is quite different. It refers now to the actual human activity or human reactions that are not scripted however caught secretly on cameras; or it an extreme game show that showcases real-life stunts, exhibitions, flops, and even angst and anger of the participants. The most recent reality show which showcase extreme games as I mentioned, is the Philippine Franchise  foreign reality show “Survivor” which becomes a phenomenal hit on the Philippine television during its first season, likewise also the Philippine Franchise foreign reality show “Big Brother” when it airs its very first season in the Philippines.</p>

<p>These top two phenomenal franchise reality shows that hits the Philippine television is given a Pinoy touch in order Filipinos could relate to the foreign show, with Filipinos are the main contestant of the show. Though the two top phenomenal franchise reality shows are already familiar in other countries, the Philippines top TV networks took a risk to adopt it on the Pinoy television. Of course, if these reality shows clicks abroad, it could also click on Filipinos, thus giving profits for the TV stations.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Pangasinan Philippines</strong> is well known to <strong>Filipinos</strong> as the provincial home of the famous tourist attractions in <strong>the Philippines</strong>, that is, the Hundred Islands or so-called now the <strong>Hundred Island</strong> National Park. However, these group of islands which they so-called Hundred islands is actually a cluster of more than a hundred and not only 100 hundred islands, as some Filipinos thought they are just 100 in number. But actually, it is already officially announced that these islands are 123 islands and islets all in all. This tourist attraction is located at <strong>Alaminos City</strong>, Pangasinan at Lingayen Gulf. Most of the native folks at it have legends and myths to tell why <strong>Hundred Islands</strong> is a scattered group of islands and islets. These myths are the Anita and Akong legend, the Greed Tale, and the Giant’s Tears.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone" title="hundred islands" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_R-G_62JmanY/R_4HzNRXr9I/AAAAAAAAANA/eEt2UQv9ooI/s400/hundred-islands.gif" alt="" width="346" height="240" /></p>
<p>Most of the islands on <strong>Hundred Island National Park</strong> in the Philippines are not relative in a size that is there are small and there are big. Of course, the small ones cannot be habited but the big ones have beaches to enjoy and picnic adventures for both local and foreign tourist alike. The largest island among them is called the <strong>Quezon Island</strong>. This island has the well-developed facilities which a tourist could benefit not like to other islands which have none or have some facilities but not like to Quezon Island.</p>
<p>The Quezon Island is the most frequently visited island at <strong>Hundred Island National Park</strong>. The island has two dining pavilions, a grilling areas, cottages, nipa huts for one to relax, restrooms, etc.</p>
<p>However, aside from Quezon Island in the Philippines, there are other islands also that have facilities but the Quezon Island is the largest. These islands are the <strong>Governor Island, Children’s Island, Lopez Island, Milagrosa Island, Scout Island, Old Scout Island, Romulo Island, Monkey Island, <span>Marcos Island</span>,</strong><strong> </strong><span><strong>Shell Island,</strong><strong> Devil`s Island,</strong><strong> Sison Island,</strong><strong> Martha Island,</strong><strong> and Century Island</strong>.</span></p>
<p>The Governor Island has an accommodation facility if one wanted to stay longer on the island and a Pinoy Big Brother house was erected on it which can be used publicly. The beach shore of this island is said to be best for <strong>sunbathing</strong>.</p>
<p>The Children’s Island is designed for family get-together especially with little children on the side. For the waters of this island is too shallow that you don’t have to worry for your children to be drown on the beach shore. Thus, it is called ‘children’s island’.</p>
<p>The Lopez Island is said to be a haven for <strong>sunbathing</strong> activities and its water under it is best for <strong>snorkeling</strong>.</p>

<p>The <strong>Marcos Island</strong> is adjacent to Quezon Island and Old Scout Island. This Island is named after former P<strong>hilippine President Ferdinand Marcos</strong>. It is said to be one of the islands that has natural handiworks, for it has three natural mounds in the island itself; a natural helipad and would you imagine a naturally formed mermaids –like statues as if it a mermaids’ island. Moreover, it has rock pathways that lead to different outlets in the islands or vantage points which brings you more to its different angles of it beauty.</p>
