Action Speaks Louder than BLOGS

Last Friday, together with my brothers and sister, Mom and uncles, we arrived here in Camiguin Island, an Island born of fire as what they describe for this Paradise Island. Usually, people went here to have fun, vacation, look for tourist spots and the like. But we went here not to have a vacation and having fun but to attend the funeral of my uncle who died of complicated illnesses from having Diabetes. Uncle Dongdong is a very nice person, I can still recall when I was a child we used to visit here in Camiguin every summer and he used to let us ride on his boat because he is a fisherman. He catches all sorts of fishes, big and small… to my surprised he used to catch Dolphins before. But we cannot see our cheerful uncle anymore, our best fisherman who used to bring us fresh catch fishes everytime he went out to the sea. We will miss you Uncle Dongdong and you may rest in peace… This is the Catarman Public Cemetery, it has few steps before you can get to the front gate. This is where

I received this forwarded message from a friend: 13days after pacquiao victory against eric morales naganap ang wowowie stampid,...13days after pacquiao victory against larios, mayon volcano errupted, many died in mudflow,...tapos ngaun e2 na naman 13days after pacquiao's victory against barrera, 8 people confimed died sa pagsabog sa glorietta. creepy? So, I tried researching it and these are what I found: January 21, 2006, Manny Pacquiao defeated Erik Morales and the Wowowee stampede happened February 5, 2006 July 7, 2006, Manny Pacquiao defeated Oscar Larious and on July 18, 2006 Mayon Volcano started erupting and the dates there after. October 6, 2007 Manny Pacquiao defeated Marco Antonio Barrera and Last October 19, 2007 a Blast in Glorietta Mall in Makati Happened... Wow, that is so creepy... I got goosebumps after I finished the research...

Just this afternoon the Gloriatta main Mall sa Makati may Sumabog na bomba. Recently there are already 8 dead and 70 wounded person. Ano ba ito? Di kaya mag hinala na naman ang mga tao nito? While the Malacañang is in the hot seat because of some anomalies they are facing right now, then this bombing just exploded in the country's business center? Ohhh... don't tell me this is another tactics of the government to shift the news to others like this one. If that is true then we should have change our leaders today. MANILA, Philippines -- An explosion that killed up to eight people at a shopping mall in Makati City early Friday afternoon was "probably caused by a bomb," Philippine National Police Director General Avelino Razon told Agence France-Presse. Alfonso Reyes, spokesman of Ayala Corp., which operates the Glorieta 2 Mall where the explosion occurred at around 1:40 p.m., said eight people had been killed. Razon concurred with this figure, saying they also have c

With what's happening now in the Philippine Government, what do you think about Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo? Should she decided to resign or not? or She will wait for the empeachment complaint?

As usual Manny Pacquiao achieved on defending this featherweight title fight against Marco Antonio Barrera. Four years ago, Manny Pacquiao steamrolled Marco Antonio Barrera en route to an 11th-round TKO victory. It wasn't nearly as easy this time around, but Pacquiao still got the job done in the rematch. Landing harder punches and flurrying effectively, Pacquiao controlled the action and won a unanimous decision in their junior lightweight fight Saturday night before an excited crowd of 10,112 at the Mandalay Bay. Manny Pacquiao, left, took Marco Antonio Barrera's best shots and kept marching forward. "It was different from our first fight," Pacquiao said. "He's a good, smart boxer. For me, I'm satisfied with that win. I thought the people were happy with that fight. I'm trying to make people happy, to give a good fight. I hope that people liked this fight tonight. We did our best." It was the second consecutive defeat for Barrera, who lost his

I collected these photos from Himantayon... he really spare his time taking these pictures everytime he found some hilariously stooopid signs and moments on his way around the Metro Cebu...

Is America Ready for a Woman President? Well, as a citizen living in a country where woman (Gloria Macapagal Arroyo) is running the country, I can say America is not that ready to have a woman President. They are just not that serious on having a woman president since they are just making fun of them like Golda Meir in Egypt, Corazon Aquino in the Philippines, Margareth Thatcher as Britain’s first female Prime Minister. The Daily Show made a video segment about “Is America Ready for a Woman President?” with a “Sex and the City Style” and they put a label on some Women presidents. The segment shows photographs of each leader with a gag line. Meir had “OYI,” Aquino had “Slut,” and Thatcher, “Oops.” I think this will be another racial issue Filipinos are dying to whine about. ‘The Daily Show’ segment labels Cory Aquino ’slut’ If the racial slur made in a scene in ABC TV’s ”Desperate Housewives” against Philippine medical schools had outraged the nation, Filipinos here and abroad could

LOS ANGELES, California--(UPDATE 3) The network and producers of “Desperate Housewives” have issued a statement apologizing for a remark made by actress Teri Hatcher’s character in a recent episode of the television series. The following is the network’s statement: "The producers of ‘Desperate Housewives’ and ABC Studios offer our sincere apologies for any offense caused by the brief reference in the season premiere. There was no intent to disparage the integrity of any aspect of the medical community in the Philippines. As leaders in broadcast diversity, we are committed to presenting sensitive and respectful images of all communities featured in our programs." The remark, made by Hatcher’s character in a scene with a doctor, was, “Okay, before we go any further, can I check those diplomas? Because I would just like to make sure they are not from some med school in the Philippines." Filipinos, especially healthcare professionals in the US and the Philippines, were out

To: ABC To the producers of " Desperate Housewives " and ABC : We are writing to express concern and hurt about a racially-discriminatory comment made in an episode of Desperate Housewives on 9/30/07. In a scene in which Susan was told by her gynecologist that she might be hitting menopause, she replied, "Can I just check those diplomas because I just want to make sure that they are not from some med school in the Philippines." As members and allies of the Filipino American community, we are writing to inform know that this type of derogatory remark was discriminatory and hurtful, and such a comment was not necessary to maintain any humor in the show. Additionally, a statement that devalues Filipinos in healthcare is extremely unfounded, considering the overwhelming presence of Filipinos and Filipino Americans in the medical field. Filipinos are the second largest immigrant population in the United States, with many entering the U.S. (and successfully passing the

Filipino-American communities in United States reacted on Desperate Housewives Season 4 Premiere episode where Teri Hatcher made a remark about Filipinos - doctors/nurses. Not only that the Medical Association of the Philippines and the Government reacted about this issue and I think that's too much. Anyway, it's not Teri Hatcher's fault but the creator/writer of the show Marc Cherry. But Teri is what the viewer's can see as the culprit so almost everybody blamed her and Filipino actor Cesar Montano made a statement blaming Teri Hatcher and he will support for the move to ask ABC network for an apology. It's just a desperate show aiming to collect more Emmy trophies, so I just hope we won't be that desperate too because we know Filipinos are one of the first class Doctors, Medical Professors and Nurses in the United States and around the world. There are just some flaw I can see in our local hospitals. Doctors and Nurses are not that enthusiastic to attend the p
