iamninoy movement


Twenty-five years ago, a man named Ninoy Aquino fought nobly for a cause he believed in. He was a man who believed in heroism, in justice, in freedom, and he committed his life to upholding these values in a manner he thought would be for the greater good.

I AM NINOY is a celebration of hope and idealism, a freedom movement, a community of heroes ---- heroes who give out of sheer selflessness and serve the country the best way they can.

In honor of Benigno S. Aquino, Jr. on his 25th death anniversary, the Benigno S. Aquino Jr., Foundation (BSAF) invites all young Filipinos to participate in a year-long celebration of Ninoy’s life and legacy for the benefit of others in need.

I am a Hero.
I do what I believe is Right.
I do what I believe is Good.
I fight for Justice.
I fight for Freedom.
I am Ninoy.

Sign-up now at iamninoy and be counted as a hero.

What's your Joy List? Here's mine...

My Joy list:
  1. Travel around the country and outside the country with friends.
  2. Having a House and Lot of my own.
  3. Own a car.
  4. Have a good and profitable Business.
  5. Play sports once a week (badminton, Volleyball, Basketball, Swimming)
  6. Laugh a good laugh everyday. (I always make sure I laugh everyday, if not on the everyday situations at least I watch funny clips at youtube. Maybe that makes me look younger than my real age. LOLz)
  7. Everyday, in spite of some sad, uncomfy situations, I always try to make myself "feel good", "feel fine", "feel better"afterwards.
  8. Go shopping. When I get bored at home or while working in front of my PC at home and want to satisfy my eyes with crowds, I tend to go to the mall and/or bazaar, baratillo stores and buy whatever I want to buy and can only afford. But most things I tend to buy when I go shopping to just get out the bored life of working at home are caps and T-shirts.
  9. Read books, inspirational and technical stuff for an hour or two everyday, because I cannot concentrate reading everytime I want to read, since there are a lot of things running everyday in my mind that makes me busy.
  10. Meet new true and funny friends.
  11. I want to earn ten times what I’m earning now, So, I can willingly share to the charity (You know... if you just earn just as an average, you tend to save for your future and forget about sharing or doing charity works.
  12. and the most important joy for me is to have abundant life, family and friends. Having all that 3 in your life will make you the happiest person.
I think that's it for now, but I know my joy list is never ending list and this blog can't fill all the joy list I want to do or have. Later, I will make a Joy appointment so that I can say that I am really alive. If you’re alive, why not be really alive and be joyful to live it to the fullest.

Blogger's New Feature

Blogger Added a few new features and things in today’s release:
  • There’s a new look for the Blogger Dashboard, which we think you’ll find more attractive and functional. If you have a ton of blogs (as we do) try out the “hide” and “show all” links to help manage the list.
  • Google Gadgets in your Layouts blog can now set their height automatically (if the gadget author supports it). Read more about adding Google Gadgets to your blog.
  • AdSense page elements can now optionally have image ads. We’ve found image ads have a higher click-through rate, so you might get more money if you turn them on.
  • We wrote up a Features page to help you keep track of everything you can do with Blogger. Take a look and see if you’ve been missing out on something cool.
  • The Flag Blog button in the Blogger navbar now pops up a window for you to tell us why you think the blog violates our terms of service. Flag Blog is always handled exclusively by human reviewers, not the automated spam locking system, so this information will better help them decide what, if any, action should be taken.
And also fixed some bugs, including:
  • Fixed Moto template header overlap in IE7.
  • Blocked the /feedReaderJson URL from web crawlers, to reduce 404s in Webmaster Tools.
  • Increased cacheability of CSS and JavaScript throughout Blogger, for faster page loads.
  • Button style and layout improvements throughout Blogger.

I Crave for Potato Salad with Apples and Bacon

My taste buds crave for something today so I searched Google about some foods I want to eat today and I found this recipe which my appetite is craving for at this moment... It kinda fun to make this but it will take some time... maybe I'll just look for some restaurant in the city or food gallery or something that serves Potato salad. But I will make this recipe soon.


Potato Salad with Apples and Bacon Recipe

Ingredients

* 5 thick strips bacon
* 1 large red or yellow onion, chopped
* Salt
* 2 Golden Delicious apples, peeled, cored, and cut in 1/2-inch dice
* 3 pounds small yellow Yukon Gold potatoes, quartered
* 4 green onions, thinly sliced, including the greens
* 1/2 cup olive oil
* 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
* 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
* 1 Tbsp chopped fresh thyme or 1 teaspoon dried
* 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper

Method

1. Combine the potatoes and enough cold water to cover by a couple of inches in a large saucepan. Add a generous pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and cover the pan. Simmer for 15 minutes or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork. Drain well.

2. While the potatoes are cooking, cook the bacon in a heavy-based skillet over medium heat. Once cooked, remove the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels. Reserve the bacon fat in the pan. Once the bacon is cool, chop it.

3. Cook the onion in the fat in the pan on medium heat, until softened and just starting to brown, about 5 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove the onion from the pan to a large bowl, set aside. Add the chopped apple to the bowl.

4. Add the potatoes and chopped bacon to the onions and apple. Add the green onions, olive oil, vinegar, mustard, and thyme. Salt and pepper to taste.

Serve either warm, room temperature, or cold.

Serves 8.
