8 Hong Kong Tourists in Manila were killed, with 2 more in critical condition in a Bus Jacking.
Although there are many lives currently being lost in the world whether innocent or guilty, the situation that was handled in Manila is a bit.... infutriating..

OneManga Shutdown
As the title states. OneManga.com, one of the most well known Manga-Streaming sites is shutting down due to publisher issues.
As one who frequents this site, i frown in sadness at the loss as it had saved me from the old days of checking between scanlators and downloading each file.
The original reason for downloading the file was so that i could always read it offline, however, in times like these when we are online 24/7 with somewhat decent bandwidth (right... 6_6 my internet has been killing me recently.. *sigh* ) streaming is in light, a simpler choice. Rather than burdening your machine with manga, you are now able to still read the manga at the expense of your online quota. There is only a slight difference between the data you download, unless you choose to re-read series.
This gives rise to streaming or online-viewers.
None the less, the closing of OneManga and its sister site 1000manga is a loss.

on a side note, if you had wondered what i have been doing, there was a post i had created for Dance in the Vampire Bund. but due to my bad internet.... ~__~

Here's a toast to a healthier internet and the life of OneManga.
