Some Thoughts to Ponder About Life Today

I found this from someone’s profile on a famous social networking site, I am not sure who is the author and I don't bother to search for who is he. I just love the content and some points to ponder that is worth sharing to anybody else. It was entitled: Some Thoughts On New Year! But for me I would rather make the title: Some Thoughts to Ponder About Life Today. SOME THOUGHTS ON NEW YEAR! The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers, wider freeways, but narrower viewpoints. We spend more, but have less, we buy more, but enjoy less. We have bigger houses and smaller families, more conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees but less sense, more knowledge, but less judgment, more experts, yet more problems, more medicine, but less wellness. We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get too angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, watch TV too much, and pray too

Archbishop Oscar V. Cruz for Senator?

LOL! That’s the biggest laughing matter I heard this week and probably the biggest loser. Seriously? Well it is not for real, because it is just an Archbishop Oscar V. Cruz for Senator Movement Facebook page.  Cruz said that he has no knowledge about the page or even the people behind it. The page has pictures of Cruz and his books, as well as a link to his blog. (http://ovc.blogspot.com). He laughed while saying "Sana barangay tanod pero pati siguro nanay ko hindi ako iboboto." Cruz said all priests are barred from running for public office. "Bawal ang cleric to join an office that exercises power. That's Church law. Take the case of Ed Panlilio. He is neither in or out. Of course, he is still a priest but he cannot celebrate mass, cannot perform his priestly functions. He is on leave permanently. Masyado naman buenas yung ganun if he left his priestly functions to run for public office and then went back to the priesthood after his stint in politics," he

A Project to 'free' women trapped in men's bodies A transgender association is offering a free sex change for cash-strapped transgender people to fulfil their dream of becoming a woman. More than 100 transgender people have applied for free sex-change surgery under the Sister's Hand project initiated by the TransFemale Association of Thailand. But only five will be chosen to undergo operations. Photo from Bankok Post The project, which is sponsored by the Preecha Aesthetic Institute, Yanhee Hospital and Discovery Channel, is in its second year.Yollada Krirkkong, the association's president, said the association was founded five years ago to campaign to improve the life quality of transgender people in "every possible aspect". Sister's Hand was launched last year and is the first project initiated by a private sector to provide free sex-change surgery, said Ms Yollada, who has herself undergone a sex change operation. The project is aimed at free

Sa tingin mo? Ano ang mali dito sa atin? Bakit wala nang natira? Baka naman ilang years from now, wala nang tao dito sa atin, dahil wala na talagang natira, ayaw na ng mga taong tumira dito... Sana naman hindi na darating ang araw na yan. Walang Natira lyrics

3 Channel Mini Falcon X Rc Helicopter

Image
Actually i am not really an RC toy hobbyist. But everytime I see RC helicopters at the mall being flown as demo, it gives me a sense of awe. So, last week, as a gift for myself, I bought this RC Helicopter (777-112-FalconX-Blue) at the mall for 1,500 pesos. It's not that expensive because as I have said, I am not a hobbyist and I cannot afford to buy expensive toys. It is an alloy helicopter with gyroscope, with steady flight and high quality, you can control it to fly even in the dark, as it with shine bright with light in front. You can check the demo video from xheli.com of the 3 Channel Mini Falcon X RC Helicopter below. It's a stress reliever for me. Feature: Material: ABS, Alloy • LED Strobe to flash for night flight • Suitable for indoor flight only • Dual propeller system • Full function 3 channel radio control • Flight stabilizing system • Super lightweight airframe • Brake for easy landing • Memory function • battery type: 3.7v 150mah Lithium-Polyme
