The San Miguel Beermen aim to move within reach of completing another “Beeracle” run as they try to stretch their best-of-five Oppo PBA Commissioner’s Cup semifinal series against Rain or Shine in Game Four on Sunday at SMART-Araneta Coliseum.

Tip-off is set at 5 p.m. live on TV5.

The Beermen, despite playing without the explosive Tyler Wilkerson, stunned Rain or Shine in Game Three, 104-98, to extend their tournament lives.

Marcio Lassiter carried the cudgels in that win, scoring 30 points. It was his best game of the series as he had averaged only three markers a game in the first two games.

Alex Cabagnot also finished with 28 points for the Beermen which cut Rain or Shine’s 2-1 series lead.

San Miguel will try to fend off elimination once more and this time, the Beermen will get help from old reliable import AZ Reid who arrived on Saturday to replace Wilkerson, who was dumped by the team after his ugly post-game outburst in Game Two.

Rain or Shine doesn’t want to be on the bad end of another possible epic comeback by the Beermen, and the Elasto Painters are surely looking forward to wrapping the series up so as to not waste the 2-0 lead that they had built.

Jericho Cruz and Mav Ahanmisi, both having stellar semifinal performances, are going to be relied upon once again after top-scoring for Rain or Shine in Game Three with 25 and 15 points, respectively.

R. Tiglao Exposed LTO Records Showing Aquino Never Bought or Sold a Porsche

Veteran columnist Rigoberto Tiglao exposed the Land Transportation Office (LTO) records of former President Benigno Aquino III showing that he never bought or sold an expensive Porsche car. The LTO records proved that the former President did not sold his Porsche 911 Carrera car which he claimed he bought for P5 million. The controversial Porsche car of the former President made headlines just months into his presidency but he explained that he bought the luxury car with the proceeds he got when he sold his BMW. Because of the furor from such display of opulence, Pres. Aquino claimed to have sold it six months later for exactly the same price. According to Tiglao during that time he asked through his column the LTO to release the car's deed of sale and registration to prove that it was not a gift from a Chinese-Filipino tycoon as rumored by some individuals critical to the President. The only possible way to discover whether the Porsche luxury was indeed sold was through ...

Tesla cloud account hacked to mine cryptocurrency

© Provided by The Hill An unidentified outside hacker infiltrated Tesla's Amazon cloud account and used its systems to quietly mine for cryptocurrencies, a cybersecurity firm announced Tuesday. The hack also potentially exposed the electric car company's data. Researchers for RedLock found that Tesla's credentials on an IT administrative console were not password protected. They made the discovery while trying to track down which organizations had left their Amazon Web Services (AWS) credentials openly exposed on the internet last month. The hackers quietly hijacked the console and began running scripts to generate virtual currency like bitcoin, the latest in a series of "cryptojacking" attacks. The researchers also found the hackers used "sophisticated evasion measures" to go undetected. A spokesperson for Tesla said the company learned about the breach in a company-sanctioned bug bounty program that pays outside hackers to discover vulnerabilitie...
