Oh make my day!!! I cannot do otherwise....back to my usual world.....call center. The weather in Cebu is bad. Gusty wind and scattered rain showers. Typhoon is in the vicinity of Cebu area. My prediction is true......Let's us not talk about prediction. I will expound that later. A video for you, my friends. Have a good day.

Goodbye Cory Aquino

It was after my shift of taking calls when I learned from my co-agent, Art Jos that former President Corazon C. Aquino passed away today, August 1 at 3:18am at the age 76.I was stunned and had a mixed emotion. I don’t eventually expect that she would die because I saw her battling over her colon cancer bravely. I cannot see any trace of pain in her face in the many of her interviews. The last interview that I saw was when Boy Abunda solicited her opinions and advises for Kris Aquino on her February 14 birthday. . She was wearing a red dress. Kris was glued to the statements of her mom. The interview still lingers in the corners of my mind.

I featured a video in this blog recently re: health condition of Cory. Since I have not heard in that video of any official statement from Kris, I presumed that Cory’s condition was doing well. I have not been following lately Cory’s health. I have been busy updating my blog.Nor, no news that I can see from the website. I even pray for her the first decade of the rosary for her before I go to sleep and for all other sick people especially those who cannot afford to take their patients to the hospital or buy medicines due to financial constraints.

I saw the gallantry of Cory to fight what is right and tobring back the democracy in the Philippines. She fought the unbeatable foe with her back-up supporters, the dictatorship regimen of then President Ferdinand E. Marcos. At the height of People Power Revolution in 1986, Pres. Marcos and his family and some of his cronies fled to Hawaii for exile. The unanimous outcry of the people catapulted her to Presidency on February 25, 1986. She was the first woman president and the 11th President of the Philippines. She served the term of 6 years from 1986 to 1992.

The demise of Cory Aquino is a great loss to all Filipino people. I know that the nation mourn for this. I can say, Cory, you will always be remembered as a highly compassionate woman of our times. The best legacy that you leave to us is your bravery to fight against corrupt practices and to maintain democracy for the people, by the people and to the people.

Farewell….Cory…..farewell. I know that you are at peace with the Lord, our Creator. For the Aquino Family, our commiseration on your time of sorrows and bereavement.

Samba Parade and Sinulog Festival

Have you ever been to Rio de Janiero in Brazil? I have not been there. Every year in Rio de Janiero, folks are celebrating the so called Samba Parade. It is always jampacked by spectators who are eager see the splendid parade and attractive costumes of participants. This is also one of their tourist attractions and give boom to the tourist industry in the country. Wish someday I can go there and enjoy the festivity. The said festival has counterpart here Cebu, which is the Sinulog Festival celebrated every third Sunday of January annually. Watch the videos. Are there similarities?

Philippine Eagle: Lord of the Forest

Philippines is rich in natural resources. Many are still untapped. But with the dramatic turning point of industrialization in the countryside, some of the farms and virgin forest have now been converted to either real estate development or manufacturing sites. One of the endangered species is the Philippine Eagle.

Im posting here the story when I researched from the website of National Geographic.

If the irrevocable transition of one species from rarity to extinction causes a rent in the fabric of our planet, exactly how big a hole would be left by the loss of the Philippine eagle? No disrespect is meant to the basking malachite damselfly or the fine-lined pocketbook mussel, because all creatures—and plants too—help turn the infinitely complex cogs of the biosphere. But the loss of this glorious bird would steal some of the world's wonder. It glides through its sole habitat, the rain forests of the Philippines, powerful wings spread to seven feet, navigating the tangled canopy with unexpected precision. It is possible that no one has ever described this rare raptor, one of the world's largest, without using the word "magnificent." If there are those who did, then heaven heal their souls.

In the kind of irony all too familiar to conservationists, however, the very evolutionary adaptations that made it magnificent have also made it one of the planet's most endangered birds of prey. There is no competition for prey from tigers, leopards, bears, or wolves in the Philippine archipelago, the eagle's only home, so it became, by default, the king of the rain forest. Expanding into an empty ecological niche, it grew to a length of three feet and a weight of up to 14 pounds. A nesting pair requires 25 to 50 square miles of forest to find enough prey—mammals such as flying lemurs and monkeys; snakes; and other birds—to feed themselves and the single young they produce every other year.

"The birds had the islands all to themselves, and they grew big," says Filipino biologist Hector Miranda, who has studied the eagles extensively. "But it was a trade-off, because the forest that created them is almost gone. And when the forest disappears—well, they're at an evolutionary dead end."

Indeed, with deforestation rates in the Philippines among the highest in the world (more than 90 percent of primary forest may have been lost to logging and development), the eagle has been reduced to a population estimated at several hundred breeding pairs.

Awareness about conservation issues, however, is rising in the Philippines. A series of devastating floods and mud slides in the past decade has convinced Filipinos that the loss of forest affects not just wildlife but people too. In recent years new protected land areas have been established in the Philippines; one, the 17,300-acre Cabuaya Forest, specifically protects the eagle. And in an effort to prevent the eagle population from dwindling further, the Philippine Eagle Foundation on Mindanao island is working to educate Filipinos about the bird, which was declared a national emblem in 1995. At least some of those who once would have shot an eagle for food or sport now let it soar unmolested.

Meanwhile, visitors to the foundation's education center can see more than a dozen eagles, some of which were rescued after they were trapped or shot. Twenty-one birds have been raised as part of a breeding program that aims someday to release birds back into restored habitat on the Philippine Islands. Will the efforts be enough? Perhaps. The first surviving chick in that program just celebrated his 16th birthday. When he was born he was given the name Pag-asa, the Tagalog word for hope

Alice In Wonderland Movie Teaser

The story of Alice of Wonderland can be traced long time ago. This has been taught in school since elementary. The story created vivid imaginations in the mind when Alice fell down in a rabbit hole. She was in another dimension, in Wonderland. In the end, this turned out to be a dream only. In our human minds, we fantasize also. This pull us from the realities of life.

The story is more of fantasy and according to Wikipedia it is a literary nonsense. Yet for young audience they will love the movie. It is a matter of how the actors will put life into the story. I love Johnny Depp. He is very good projecting a villain image.

I was dumbfounded and stess.

Crucifixion

Philippines is the only christian country in Asia. Christianity was handed down by Spaniards during the 400 years of Spanish colonization.

Every year Philippines is celebrating Holy Week, in commemoration of the crucifixion and death of Jesus Christ. This is part of the tradition already.

Some believers, made a covenant with God, to have themselves crucified on the cross. This is a real crucifixion by letting their palms and feet nailed to the cross. Their head crowned with barbed wire. This sound odd yet this is true.

G-Force Beats Harry Potter

Would you like to see a movie these days? I know that are lots of movies showing now in the theaters. I have not seen any movies these days. I said to myself that I would just buy a DVD tape to save money.My coffer is stingy. Movies are expensive when you go to SM Department Store or Ayala Gaisano. Watching in a large screen of course is more advantageous than watching in small TV.

Would you believe that G-force portrayed by a commando of Guinea Pigs outrun Harry Potter and the Half-blood Prince this week. G-Force earned $32.2 M besting the $30 M the 6th Potter film.

Beauty Around Us

My kids love taking pictures. Pictures such as plants, animals, flowers, structures or any others objects that they find fascinating. I studied the pictures and they are awesome. I also realized that God is a great creator and inventor. Maybe, we have not recognized the value of the creation because our lives are busy, as they say,” survival of fetish.” Perhaps we are blinded with the material things that we want to possess, like money, clothing, jewelries, cars, etc. Yes this is a fact! We only remember God when we ask favors. When we are in need.

Albeit, if we look and focus the creation, we can summarize that God who is the author of everything is the greatest artist. His works are masterpiece. One is human being. We were made in His likeness and image. There are flowers, plants, moon, stars, water, sun, air, animals, galaxy and the universe. No amount of science can explain this. No mathematics can define this. God everyday is manifesting His self to us through his creation. Take time in a day to thank His power and glory.

Best Hotels in Cebu

I have been working in Cebu City since 2006. The economy is fast growing as I stayed for 3 years. I have seen the construction and the rise of big buildings. Cebu has become the center of Business Processing Outsourcing(BPO). In IT Park alone more than 10 call center were put-up. Usually foreign investors, like Convergy's, Qualfon, Aegis(formerly People Support), Etelecare, Cordia, ACS are some of the call centers situated in IT Park. Cebu is a haven of foreigners. Many foreigners migrated to Cebu to invest business and married Cebuanos. Sinulog Festival which is held every 3rd Sunday of the January attracts tourists.

Making Origami Swan

Origami: How To Make An Origami Swan


I wonder sometimes how to make origami forms, a Japanese technique of folding a paper. This is not my skills or talent. I would rather pound the keypad of the computer. I could type fast than folding a piece of paper to make a structure out of it. It's funny that being a mom I should teach my kids about arts. With this modern technologies and computer mania, my kids are smarter than me. It's a fact nowadays. Yet, even thou we are growing old just like me (I have to admit that growing graciously) we have to learn more and more. Meaning, we have to be jack of all trades master of all. Making origami forms like swan, crane, airplane, box, etc is a good past time at home. It sharpens our memory, skills and ability to form a structure.

Watch this video on how to make origami swan. This is famous among us Filipinos.

Harry Potter Movie Review

Harry Potter and the Half-blood Prince movie prove it again as blockbuster. As usual, the movie is magical, fighting evils and at the end, it good surpasses evil. Magical and fantasy movie mesmerized audiences especially kids. Even adults are spellbound. Temporary, it can erase our problems by just watching in a fleeting moment. There is also a love triangle and kissing scene. The actors like Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Print are all growing-ups. A change in some of the scenarios was good.

Practicing Earthquake Drill

I happened to see this pic in webiste http://izismile.com/curiosities/ about 7,000 students practicing drill at a certain school in Caloocan City on a broad daylight.

I remember in my high school days at San Jose Academy. We were trained by Assumption sisters what to do when in case of fire or calamity. As part of the practice, when we heard the alarm buzzed we don't have to panic, presence of mind and go out of the room in a single file. Yet when unexpected calamity struck, will this drill works when there is adrenaline rush running through the system?

Dog With Five Legs

Naughty Pussy Cat

Her name is Ming Lee. I don't know if this is a correct spelling. It was my niece, Ging-ging who christened her. Sounds Chinese. Who cares anyway what is in the name. Some people may think that she is human by hearing the name. Ming Lee is the only kitten of Sassy survived from adoption. . Sassy is Ming Lee's mom. Her name is so classy. I don't know if Orange (Ging's daugther) got the name from the movie Sassy Girl. Her other siblings were distributed in the neighborhood.

Orange has a big generous heart. She cares for Ming Lee and Sassy. She shows her compassion that she has to defy orders of her parents just to take care of the cats. She cries when she sees them being hurt.

I have seen many stray cats along the streets. Killed in a vehicular accident. Some where malnourished, weak, deep sunken eyes, dirty furs, wounded and hungry. Who cares about felines anyway? Who will adopt these cats? Only those who love raising felines would pick-up. I wish that there will be a law promulgated by our law makers to lessen stray animals on the streets.

Ming Lee is about 4 mos. old. She is still naughty. She loves to play and climb. While Sassy is pregnant again. Her fourth pregnancy I bet. Felines multiply fast but the mortality rate is high because nobody cares. Perhaps her kids will be distributed surreptitiously again when she gave birth. I really don't know. Wish cats are gifted with rational minds. Like dogs, cats if properly trained can be the smartest animal.

Last December 2008, I heard that his contract expired so he had to go back to Argentina. I have not heard about him anymore. I wisht him happiness and good health. I wish too that he will go back to Cebu now Qualfon is growing in its 3 years of operations.

THORN HEART

By: Beth T. Belarmino

How could you ever love a man you know you can never have? There is a pain in your heart being stabbed by a Damocles sword! Within the depth of your heart you bleed and you are the only one who understands what a profound loneliness is. In the darkest side of your life, he is a candle glowing in the dark. In the essence of your whole being, your bodies are just one, just one soul……

Love can only be kept when it is given perfectly and it can only be given perfectly when it is also received

-Thomas Merton

No Man Is An Island

Chapter I

PHANTOMS OF MEMORIES

When the country was under siege of the 1986 People Power Revolution; when mammoth of people: young and old, fat and thin, nuns and priests armored with rosary, when non-government organizations and civic leaders braved EDSA to demonstrate the ouster of Pres. Marcos, a beautiful angelic baby girl was born to a woman, Margot, in a quiet town of San Jose, Province of Antique (pronounced An-ti-ke) at 2:30 dawn time. When night time was meeting daytime. As you could hear the loud cry of a baby girl, you could hear the chirping of the crickets and the flocks of birds. It seemed like the cricket and the birds were welcoming the baby for they never stopped chanting in their language until the baby ceased crying. A cry of life. A cry of joy. Or maybe a cry of defiance she existed on the face of the earth. In her little sense of world, she might have preempted that her life would be consisting of twist and turns.

Jordan Chandler Admits That He Lied About Michael Jackson

With the news of the passing of Michal Jackson, the truth about who MJ really was has been coming to light these pass days. And, now the little boy who claimed that Micheal Jackson “molested” him when he was younger has now issued a statement saying “I lied for my father, I’m sorry Michael’! WOW!

In 1993, Jordan Chandler told a psychiatrist and police that he and Jackson had engaged in sexual acts that included oral sex, the boy gave detailed description of Jackson ’s genitals. The case was settled out of court for a reported $22 million, but the strain led Jackson to begin taking painkillers. Eventually he became addicted.

Now maybe for the remorse of his death Jordan Chandler decides to tell us the truth. ” I never meant to lie and destroy Michael Jackson but my father made me to tell only lies. Now i can’t tell Michael how much i’m sorry and if he will forgive me ”.

His father, Evan Chandler was tape-recorded saying amongst other things, “If I go through with this, I win big-time. There’s no way I lose. I will get everything I want and they will be destroyed forever…

Under the influence of a controversial father (Evan Chandler) told his son to tell that Jackson had touched his penis. Evan Chandler then told a psychiatrist and later police that he and Jackson had engaged in acts of kissing, masturbation and oral sex, as well as giving a detailed description of what he alleged were the singer’s genitals.

“Now for the first time i can’t bare to lie anymore. Michael Jackson didn’t do anything to me, all was my father lies to escape from being poor.” says Jordan .

On top of that Jordan Chandler, now 26, filed a request for a restraining order against his father on August 5, 2005. The reason for the order was that Evan Chandler, formerly a dentist and an aspiring screenwriter, had allegedly hit Jordan over the head from behind with a twelve and a half pound weight. He’d also allegedly sprayed him in the face with mace and tried to choke him.
This startling news really upsets me for the simple fact that for all these years the press have drugged Michael Jackson into the ground with all the lies about him being a child molester, messing with little boys and etc. This is just a disgrace!

I really don’t blame the little boy at all, he was too young to even know what was really going on, I blame his d*mn father! Why do people seem to think that lying on something as serious as this is cool? All over so fu*cking money! He has no idea the amount of damaged he has caused to MJ’s name, career, family, children and fans world-wide. I never for a moment believed that MJ was a molester, he was purely misunderstood!

You now what I really hope the Jackson family takes that dumb a** “father” to court and get every drop of that $22 million back that MJ lost. This is just not cool at all. Life is not a fu*cking joke, it’s sad how people will go to such lows to ruin a name.

If MJ is reading this right now, we know who you are and all the pain you have been through! Your legacy, music, life will forever live on forever! No one can ever take that away from you!
