Bacon Explosion Recipe

Bacon Explosion Recipe Ingredients:
2 pounds thick cut bacon
2 pounds Italian sausage
1 jar of your favorite barbeque sauce
1 jar of your favorite barbeque rub

Here are the Steps in cooking Bacon Explosion:
1. Create a 5x5 bacon weave square shape.
2. Add some barbeque seasoning on top of your bacon weave.
3. Take two pounds of Italian sausage and layer it directly on top of your bacon weave.
4. Next up is bacon layer number two. Take the remaining bacon slices and fry them up. These pieces are going to be a major part of the inner flavor of our sausage fatty.
5. Crumble or chop the cooked strips into bite size pieces and place on top of the sausage layer.
6. Separate the front edge of the sausage layer from the bacon weave and begin rolling backwards. You want to include all layers EXCEPT the bacon weave in your roll.
7. Once the sausage is fully rolled up, pinch together the seams and ends to seal all of the bacon inside.
8. Roll the sausage forward completely wrapping it in the bacon weave. Make sure it sits with the seam facing downward to help keep it all sealed up.
9. Cook your Bacon Explosion at 225 degrees in a constant cloud of hickory smoke until your Thermapen gives an internal temperature reading of 165 degrees. Then cut and serve.

Bennie Harden Wint Faked His Death

Bennie Witt is a man who managed to faked his drowning death nearly 20 years ago off a Florida beach. Whew! This thing was found out by a North Carolina police who stopped him for a traffic violation. He told the police that he faked his drowning death in Daytona Beach, Florida, in 1989. On that accident, he left behind his grieving fiancee and his 4-year-old daughter from a previous marriage. And now, after two decades, he has acquired a common-law wife and another child in Marshall, North Carolina. Why need to fake his death? Wint told the police that he faked his death in Daytona Beach, Florida, because he was "paranoid" about his narcotics-related activity at the time, Weaverville, North Carolina.

Because of malfunctioning lights on his license plate, he was pulled over in Weaverville on Saturday, the man (Wint) said his name was James Sweet. But when that police ran the name through official databases, he was unable to find any information.

The police found it suspicious and believed it to be a false name, so he arrested the man on first, suspicion of driving without a license and second, giving false information, those are both misdemeanor offenses, and booked him under the name "John Doe."

But "John Doe" finally opened up to the police, admitting that he was really Bennie Wint and that he had been on the run since 1989.

Evolution Of Robotic Dance by MechRC

For a very long period of time, the video with a title of "Evolution of Dance" by Judson Laipply dominated the most viewed of all videos on Youtube, with over one hundred million (100,000,000+) views, two hundred eighty eight thousand (288,000) comments and two thousand forty four (2,044) video responses. Unfortunately, it was beaten by Avril Lavigne's "Girlfriend" which is now on the first place. As time goes by, a lot of people are creating their own remake of that video (Evolution of Dance) and uploading them on Youtube. Whew!

But as what my post title stated, this video is the "Evolution of Robotic Dance" by MechRC(of course!). Yup, I found this video and it looks very great! I just wanna share it with you. Watch the video after the jump.

Obamameter, Obameter, Obama Promises and Politifact

Obamameter, Obameter, Obama promises and politifact... Are you familiar of those? Huh? PolitiFact has compiled about 500 promises that Barack Obama made during the campaign and is tracking their progress on our gauge that is called the Obameter. All I know is about Obama's promises and I compiled those here for you to read. Hehehe. Here it is:

* "give a tax break to 95 percent of Americans who work every day and get taxes taken out of their paycheck every week";
* "eliminate income taxes on Social Security for seniors making under $50,000";
* "give homeowners and working parents additional tax breaks";
* not increase taxes on anyone if they "make under $250,000; you will not see your taxes increase by a single dime –- not your income taxes, not your payroll tax, not your capital gains tax";
* "end those breaks to companies that ship jobs overseas";
* "give tax breaks to companies that invest right here in the United States";
* "eliminate capital gains taxes for small businesses and start-up companies that are the engine of job creation in this country";
* "create two million new jobs by rebuilding our crumbling roads, and bridges, and schools -- by laying broadband lines to reach every corner of the country";
* "invest $15 billion a year in renewable sources of energy to create five million new energy jobs over the next decade";
* "reopen old factories, old plants, to build solar panels, and wind turbines";
* build "a new electricity grid";
* "build the fuel efficient cars of tomorrow";
* "eliminate the oil we import from the Middle East in 10 years";
* "lower premiums" for those who already have health insurance;
* "if you don't have health insurance, you'll be able to get the same kind of health insurance that members of Congress give themselves";
* "end discrimination by insurance companies to the sick and those who need care the most";
* "invest in early childhood education";
* "recruit an army of new teachers";
* "pay our teachers higher salaries, give them more support. But ... also demand higher standards and more accountability";
* "make a deal with every young person who's here and every young person in America: If you are willing to commit yourself to national service, whether it's serving in our military or in the Peace Corps, working in a veterans home or a homeless shelter, then we will guarantee that you can afford to go to college no ifs ands or buts";
* "stop spending $10 billion a month in Iraq whole the Iraqis have a huge surplus";
* "end this war in Iraq";
* "finish the fight and snuff out al Qaeda and bin Laden";
* "increase our ground troops and our investments in the finest fighting force in the world";
* "invest in 21st century technologies so that our men and women have the best training and equipment when they deploy into combat and the care and benefits they have earned when they come home";
* "No more homeless veterans"; and
* "no more fighting for disability payments."

And this is what an Obameter looks like:


Hahaha. What do you think?

Is Internet a Threat to Wildlife?

Is the Internet hastening the demise of the wild animals? Hmm. Some animal welfare advocates believe that it is and that scores of other species are also at risk. At this time, illegal online trade is said to have increased as the Web itself has grown. Searches on English-language Web sites during a three-month period found "more than 6,000 illegal or potentially illegal wildlife items for sale," including turtle shells, elephant-bone sculptures, and even live black leopards.



What can we do to protect them?

Why Some People Are Suffering Online?

Online community Web sites allow people to establish relationships with a number of strangers via the Internet and reportedly to feel more popular. Such sites are also “a paradise for liars,” racists, busybodies, and the prejudiced, says Folha Online. Some site users fake their own profiles. Others bully those who are overweight, are short, have frizzy hair, and so on, causing them great emotional pain. According to Brazilian psychologist Ivelise Fortim, this occurs because “what happens on [Web sites] is more important to the victims than what happens in daily life."



Are you suffering from those too?

Britney Spears Feat. Joanna Pacitti - Out From Under

Lyrics:
Out From Under Lyrics

Breathe you out
Breathe you in
You keep coming back to tell me
you’re the one who could have been
and my eyes see it all so clear
It was long ago and far away but it never disappears
I try to put it in the past
Hold on to myself and don’t look back

I don’t wanna dream about
All the things that never were
Maybe I can live without
When I’m out from under
I don’t wanna feel the pain
What good would it do me now
I’ll get it all figured out
When I’m out from under

So let me go
Just let me fly away
Let me feel the space between us growing deeper
And much darker every day
Watch me now and I’ll be someone new
My heart will be unbroken
It will open up for everyone but you
Even when I cross the line
It's like a lie I’ve told a thousand times

I don’t wanna dream about
All the things that never were
Maybe I can live without
When I’m out from under
I don’t wanna feel the pain
What good would it do me now
I’ll get it all figured out
When I’m out from under

[Out From Under lyrics on http://lyricsmusicvideo.blogspot.com ]
And part of me still believes
When you ay you’re gonna stick around
And part of me still believes
We can find a way to work it out
But I know that we tried everything we could try
So let's just say goodbye
Forever

I don’t wanna dream about
All the things that never were
Maybe I can live without
When I’m out from under
I don’t wanna feel the pain
What good would it do me now
I’ll get it all figured out
When I’m out from under

I don’t wanna dream about
All the things that never were
Maybe I can live without
When I’m out from under
I don’t wanna feel the pain
What good would it do me now
I’ll get it all figured out
When I’m out from under
When I'm out from under

Notable Messages To Charice Pempengco By Fans

This girl is really a great Filipino singer! A lot of people from different places around the world keep shouting, "Awesome!", "Wow!", "Very nice!" or maybe "Keep it up sis!" on her videos in U.S.. Whew! As of now, I am reading some posts on different blogs that is related to Charice, especially this one which is said-to-be her Official Site. From that, I've noticed that there are some people who are seriously telling something or making an advice to charice, and they are hoping that Charice will pay attention to them and listen. Hmm. Are they her advisers? I guess not. Hehehe.

Here are those notable concerns, advises and comments:

From archeryRich(Philippines):
Charice,sana nagbabasa ka talaga ng mga message dito. May importante sana akong gustong iparating. Hindi ba gusto mong maging sikat na singer sa buong mundo? Pero sana bawasan mo yung pagsasabi na para sa Pilipino yung performance mo,o masyado kang Proud to be Filipino. Syempre magrereact din naman yung mga fans mong foreigner. Parang lagi na lang Pinoy. Tumulad ka sa ibang singers na kumakanta para sa lahat. Walang favoritism. Para sa’yo din ito. Naringgan mo ba si Celine na Canadian na ganon magsalita,o si Rihanna. Syempre proud sila,pero bilang world-class singer hindi na dapat icapitalize yun. Ikaw ay para sa lahat.
Feeling ko natatakot kang masabihan na walang utang na loob,o hindi marunong lumingon sa pinanggalingan. WE NEED CHANGE. Kailangan maiba na ang mentality ng mga Pinoy. Sana maintindihan mo,para sa’yo din ito. Kung gusto mo talagang sumikat sa buong mundo at matulad kina,Celine Dion, Mariah Carey etc. Hwag mo masyadong i-attach yung sarili mo dito. Maiintindihan namin.OK.


From Tomy(Indonesia):
Charice i forget to say that im from Indonesia…
and im totally love u..
i love when u sing, u really like an angel..and ur voice can make me happy whatever i do and anywhere i am.
hope u will come to Indonesia, coz i really want to meet u…
keep up the work and God Bless U Charice…
Love u…^.^


From Mercenario Busch(Germany):
for now i will say wOw your really great, im so happy that i found your video duet with Sarah
in ASAP your voice pay my attention girl so i search more video of yours in youtube and then i find that you already perform in other country what a wOw., i really love your performance in all your video. i will say it in tagalog ”tumatayo balahibo ko pag kumakanta ka” :D your just blessed a very beautiful voice, also my mother watching your video., and keep up the good work!!!

So take care always and also your mother, oh and also your big brother :D

so me again im Mercenario Busch from Germany your NUMBER 1 Fans!!!:D:D:D


Once again, from Tomy(Indonesia):
dear Charice…
i juzz want to say, I LOVE YOU…^.^
GBUF..


From Pinoy_kuyafred!=)(Philippines):[Edited: Rude Words]
Alam nio Bakit ganito dito sa Pinas, grabe na tlga mga tao dito!

Charice pakinggan mong mabuti ang Boses mo sa video nio ni Dim****** sarah!!

Napakahina ng Boses mo compare sa Boses ni Sarah, simple lang naman ang analysis nian e, para mapansin si sarah ng mga viewers abroad at pilit kang dinadown dito ng A****** kasi pinalalabas nila na mas marami pang magaling na Pinoy na singer ng A****** kaysa sayo kasi obsess ang mga ibang tao dian na sumikat din sa abroad diba.

Sa ibang bansa kasi mas malakas ang boses mo sa mga birit mo kaysa sa minus one… pero ang napansin kolang kasing lakas ng boses ni Sarah ang minus one.. O diba may meaning e…

Achaka isa pa wag mong gawing idolo mo itong si Sarah kasi dem**** yan!!!! Kay Ms. Regine Velasquez kanalang makipagduet.. Icontact mo ang S** and E** B***** maguest karin sa mga TV shows ng G***. Maging fair ka naman sana Charice!!!! Wag kang magpaangkin sa A****** kasi mga dakilang manggagamit lang ang mga Kapitalista Pilipino nayan!!!!!

We lov u charice forever!

Hehehe! So those are some notable comments I found recently. All comments are from here!

How about you? What can you say about her?

Apply For A Job In Canada Now!

Huh, the Obama trend is over. Hehehe. I have posted a lot of things about it and keep updating it. Now, lets focus on some important things. Yup, the same with the title of this post, you should apply for a job in Canada now! Why? Simple. Far from family. High salary!

For a jobless like me, this thing is very important. Hehehe. I finished school last October 2008 and I am waiting for our graduation on March 2009. What am I trying to say is that, till now, I dont have work!!!! And it hurts!!! As for me, I'm not planning to work there, but I do like helping people to have their own stable jobs! Whew! (a public service from Batangas Online. Toinkz! LOL!).

If you are planning to migrate or work in Canada, here is a summary of the do’s and don’t for overseas jobseekers:

Do's

  • Do visit the various Canadian job websites BEFORE deciding to emigrate to familiarize yourself with the job opportunities in your field.
  • Do apply for your permanent residence visas. Very important. Prospective employers will ask about your immigration status and having your residence visas (or at least being in the application process) is a prerequisite for most Canada job vacancies.
  • Do start applying for advertised vacancies from OVERSEAS, but only 1 to 12 weeks before a possible start date or a visit to Canada.
  • Do send a "cold" letter of application and C.V. to EVERY potential employer and recruitment agent in the region of Canada you intend settling in to let them know that you are available..
  • Do prepare your C.V. in the Canadian style and write a short but clear covering letter confirming that you have been granted permanent residence visas (or that you have been assessed as eligible and are in the visa application process).
  • Do provide a Canadian postal address and Canadian mobile/email address in your C.V. where possible.
  • Do visit Canada or arrive permanently (once your visas have been approved) to attend job interviews, as very few employers will engage candidates on a “sight unseen” basis.
  • Do make a positive impression in the interview, be flexible and have copies of your residence visas and references available for employers to sight.

Don'ts

  • Don’t apply for job vacancies OR visit Canada for job interviews more than 1 - 12 weeks away from a possible start date. Employers will not be interested.
  • Don’t expect everything to work like home. Be flexible and willing to fit in with local ways of doing things.
  • Don’t expect a job at the same level or higher than you had overseas. You may lack Canadian local knowledge and may need to take a step back in order to advance later. Wait one year.
  • Don’t expect the same salary or more than you had overseas. The cost of living and income tax rates are lower in Canada than many other western developed nations, so look at your NET INCOME not the gross amount.
  • Don’t expect a job offer in the first week. On average, it can take native Canadians 1 – 8 weeks to find a new job.
  • Don’t “over negotiate” the contract with your first employer. Be flexible and understand that employment law and contract terms may be different in Canada.
OK, please remember all of these tips!

GeoEye-1: Can You Locate Yourself In These Inauguration Photos?

Here are some so-called "Satelite Photos" of the President Barack Obama Inauguration Day on January 20, 2008. (Click here to watch Barack Obama Inauguration Speech Video replay online.) These people are really like ants! Whew! This is so great! This is produced by GeoEye-1. What is it?

GeoEye-1, the satellite that will supply Google with high-resolution imagery of the Earth, took a high-resolution photograph of the inauguration of President Barack Obama.

The satellite is expected to start producing data for Google in coming weeks, but in the meantime, this shot shows a bit more tantalizing detail about what will show in Google Earth and Google Maps. It was taken from 423 miles up as the 4,300-pound satellite traveled 17,000 miles per hour.

Can you locate yourself in these Inauguration photos?

Read The Full Barack Obama Inauguration Address Speech

Do you want to read the full Barack Obama Inauguration address speech? President Barack Obama spent two full days over the weekend preparing for, what his aide says, a truly historic address. Wow! Not only the people of America but the people of the world are watching as the most powerful president in the world deliver his speech! He just continue a tradition that started 220 years ago by George Washington. I also posted the video replay of this address. Click here to watch.

Here it is:
My fellow citizens:

I stand here today humbled by the task before us, grateful for the trust you have bestowed, mindful of the sacrifices borne by our ancestors. I thank President Bush for his service to our nation, as well as the generosity and cooperation he has shown throughout this transition.

Forty-four Americans have now taken the presidential oath. The words have been spoken during rising tides of prosperity and the still waters of peace. Yet, every so often the oath is taken amidst gathering clouds and raging storms. At these moments, America has carried on not simply because of the skill or vision of those in high office, but because We the People have remained faithful to the ideals of our forbearers, and true to our founding documents.

So it has been. So it must be with this generation of Americans.

That we are in the midst of crisis is now well understood. Our nation is at war, against a far-reaching network of violence and hatred. Our economy is badly weakened, a consequence of greed and irresponsibility on the part of some, but also our collective failure to make hard choices and prepare the nation for a new age. Homes have been lost; jobs shed; businesses shuttered. Our health care is too costly; our schools fail too many; and each day brings further evidence that the ways we use energy strengthen our adversaries and threaten our planet.

These are the indicators of crisis, subject to data and statistics. Less measurable but no less profound is a sapping of confidence across our land - a nagging fear that America’s decline is inevitable, and that the next generation must lower its sights.

Today I say to you that the challenges we face are real. They are serious and they are many. They will not be met easily or in a short span of time. But know this, America - they will be met.

On this day, we gather because we have chosen hope over fear, unity of purpose over conflict and discord.

On this day, we come to proclaim an end to the petty grievances and false promises, the recriminations and worn out dogmas, that for far too long have strangled our politics.

We remain a young nation, but in the words of Scripture, the time has come to set aside childish things.

The time has come to reaffirm our enduring spirit; to choose our better history; to carry forward that precious gift, that noble idea, passed on from generation to generation: the God-given promise that all are equal, all are free, and all deserve a chance to pursue their full measure of happiness.

In reaffirming the greatness of our nation, we understand that greatness is never a given. It must be earned. Our journey has never been one of short-cuts or settling for less. It has not been the path for the faint-hearted - for those who prefer leisure over work, or seek only the pleasures of riches and fame. Rather, it has been the risk-takers, the doers, the makers of things - some celebrated but more often men and women obscure in their labor, who have carried us up the long, rugged path towards prosperity and freedom.

For us, they packed up their few worldly possessions and traveled across oceans in search of a new life. For us, they toiled in sweatshops and settled the West; endured the lash of the whip and plowed the hard earth.

For us, they fought and died, in places like Concord and Gettysburg; Normandy and Khe Sahn. Time and again these men and women struggled and sacrificed and worked till their hands were raw so that we might live a better life. They saw America as bigger than the sum of our individual ambitions; greater than all the differences of birth or wealth or faction.

This is the journey we continue today. We remain the most prosperous, powerful nation on Earth. Our workers are no less productive than when this crisis began. Our minds are no less inventive, our goods and services no less needed than they were last week or last month or last year. Our capacity remains undiminished. But our time of standing pat, of protecting narrow interests and putting off unpleasant decisions - that time has surely passed. Starting today, we must pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, and begin again the work of remaking America.

For everywhere we look, there is work to be done. The state of the economy calls for action, bold and swift, and we will act - not only to create new jobs, but to lay a new foundation for growth. We will build the roads and bridges, the electric grids and digital lines that feed our commerce and bind us together. We will restore science to its rightful place, and wield technology’s wonders to raise health care’s quality and lower its cost. We will harness the sun and the winds and the soil to fuel our cars and run our factories. And we will transform our schools and colleges and universities to meet the demands of a new age. All this we can do. And all this we will do.

Now, there are some who question the scale of our ambitions - who suggest that our system cannot tolerate too many big plans. Their memories are short. For they have forgotten what this country has already done; what free men and women can achieve when imagination is joined to common purpose, and necessity to courage.

What the cynics fail to understand is that the ground has shifted beneath them - that the stale political arguments that have consumed us for so long no longer apply. The question we ask today is not whether our government is too big or too small, but whether it works - whether it helps families find jobs at a decent wage, care they can afford, a retirement that is dignified. Where the answer is yes, we intend to move forward. Where the answer is no, programs will end. And those of us who manage the public’s dollars will be held to account - to spend wisely, reform bad habits, and do our business in the light of day - because only then can we restore the vital trust between a people and their government.

Nor is the question before us whether the market is a force for good or ill. Its power to generate wealth and expand freedom is unmatched, but this crisis has reminded us that without a watchful eye, the market can spin out of control - and that a nation cannot prosper long when it favors only the prosperous.

The success of our economy has always depended not just on the size of our Gross Domestic Product, but on the reach of our prosperity; on our ability to extend opportunity to every willing heart - not out of charity, but because it is the surest route to our common good.

As for our common defense, we reject as false the choice between our safety and our ideals. Our Founding Fathers, faced with perils we can scarcely imagine, drafted a charter to assure the rule of law and the rights of man, a charter expanded by the blood of generations. Those ideals still light the world, and we will not give them up for expedience’s sake.

And so to all other peoples and governments who are watching today, from the grandest capitals to the small village where my father was born: know that America is a friend of each nation and every man, woman, and child who seeks a future of peace and dignity, and that we are ready to lead once more. Recall that earlier generations faced down fascism and communism not just with missiles and tanks, but with sturdy alliances and enduring convictions. They understood that our power alone cannot protect us, nor does it entitle us to do as we please. Instead, they knew that our power grows through its prudent use; our security emanates from the justness of our cause, the force of our example, the tempering qualities of humility and restraint.

We are the keepers of this legacy. Guided by these principles once more, we can meet those new threats that demand even greater effort - even greater cooperation and understanding between nations. We will begin to responsibly leave Iraq to its people, and forge a hard-earned peace in Afghanistan. With old friends and former foes, we will work tirelessly to lessen the nuclear threat, and roll back the specter of a warming planet. We will not apologize for our way of life, nor will we waver in its defense, and for those who seek to advance their aims by inducing terror and slaughtering innocents, we say to you now that our spirit is stronger and cannot be broken; you cannot outlast us, and we will defeat you.

For we know that our patchwork heritage is a strength, not a weakness. We are a nation of Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus - and non-believers. We are shaped by every language and culture, drawn from every end of this Earth; and because we have tasted the bitter swill of civil war and segregation, and emerged from that dark chapter stronger and more united, we cannot help but believe that the old hatreds shall someday pass; that the lines of tribe shall soon dissolve; that as the world grows smaller, our common humanity shall reveal itself; and that America must play its role in ushering in a new era of peace.

To the Muslim world, we seek a new way forward, based on mutual interest and mutual respect. To those leaders around the globe who seek to sow conflict, or blame their society’s ills on the West - know that your people will judge you on what you can build, not what you destroy. To those who cling to power through corruption and deceit and the silencing of dissent, know that you are on the wrong side of history; but that we will extend a hand if you are willing to unclench your fist.

To the people of poor nations, we pledge to work alongside you to make your farms flourish and let clean waters flow; to nourish starved bodies and feed hungry minds. And to those nations like ours that enjoy relative plenty, we say we can no longer afford indifference to suffering outside our borders; nor can we consume the world’s resources without regard to effect. For the world has changed, and we must change with it.

As we consider the road that unfolds before us, we remember with humble gratitude those brave Americans who, at this very hour, patrol far-off deserts and distant mountains. They have something to tell us today, just as the fallen heroes who lie in Arlington whisper through the ages. We honor them not only because they are guardians of our liberty, but because they embody the spirit of service; a willingness to find meaning in something greater than themselves. And yet, at this moment - a moment that will define a generation - it is precisely this spirit that must inhabit us all.

For as much as government can do and must do, it is ultimately the faith and determination of the American people upon which this nation relies. It is the kindness to take in a stranger when the levees break, the selflessness of workers who would rather cut their hours than see a friend lose their job which sees us through our darkest hours. It is the firefighter’s courage to storm a stairway filled with smoke, but also a parent’s willingness to nurture a child, that finally decides our fate.

Our challenges may be new. The instruments with which we meet them may be new. But those values upon which our success depends - hard work and honesty, courage and fair play, tolerance and curiosity, loyalty and patriotism - these things are old. These things are true. They have been the quiet force of progress throughout our history. What is demanded then is a return to these truths. What is required of us now is a new era of responsibility - a recognition, on the part of every American, that we have duties to ourselves, our nation, and the world, duties that we do not grudgingly accept but rather seize gladly, firm in the knowledge that there is nothing so satisfying to the spirit, so defining of our character, than giving our all to a difficult task.

This is the price and the promise of citizenship.

This is the source of our confidence - the knowledge that God calls on us to shape an uncertain destiny.

This is the meaning of our liberty and our creed - why men and women and children of every race and every faith can join in celebration across this magnificent mall, and why a man whose father less than sixty years ago might not have been served at a local restaurant can now stand before you to take a most sacred oath.

So let us mark this day with remembrance, of who we are and how far we have traveled. In the year of America’s birth, in the coldest of months, a small band of patriots huddled by dying campfires on the shores of an icy river. The capital was abandoned. The enemy was advancing. The snow was stained with blood. At a moment when the outcome of our revolution was most in doubt, the father of our nation ordered these words be read to the people:

“Let it be told to the future world…that in the depth of winter, when nothing but hope and virtue could survive…that the city and the country, alarmed at one common danger, came forth to meet [it].”

America. In the face of our common dangers, in this winter of our hardship, let us remember these timeless words. With hope and virtue, let us brave once more the icy currents, and endure what storms may come. Let it be said by our children’s children that when we were tested we refused to let this journey end, that we did not turn back nor did we falter; and with eyes fixed on the horizon and God’s grace upon us, we carried forth that great gift of freedom and delivered it safely to future generations.

Eraserheads LIVE! The Final Set

A closure to the entire Eraserheads saga?
The phenomenal ‘90s local rock act - The Eraserheads, will regroup anew in a concert dubbed as The Final Set. The Eraserheads will reunite for the second time on March 7, 2009 to settle unfinished business following the abrupt finish of their highly successful reunion concert last August 30, 2008 in Bonifacio Open Field in Taguig. Composed of Ely Buendia, Buddy Zabala, Marcus Ador, and Raimund Marasigan, the Eraserheads broke up in 2002. The band''s musical legacy grew more since the falling out.

On their last reunion concert, Ely unfortunately experienced chest pains and reportedly collapsed backstage. The reunion concert is a gift to the fans for their tireless support.

Will Charice Pempengco Stay and Live in United States?

What? Is this real? Will Charice Pempengco stay and live in United States? Hmmmm. Charice performed at President Elect Barack Obama's pre-inaugural ball at the Grand Hyatt Washington Hotel. Obama's staff requested her to sing two songs, God Bless America and One Moment In Time. After the success of the Barack Obama's Presidential Pre-Inauguration and garnering an standing-ovation applause from the American people, Charice is now thinking whether to stay in the Philippines or migrate to U.S.. According to what she had said in the interview, Charice in not yet sure of living in the U.S.. It is a 50-50 decision.

She said that if an opportunity will be given in the U.S., she may transfer and continue her singing career there.

How are you Chasters out there? What can you say about this?

January 20, President Barack Obama's Inauguration Speech

Here is the text version of Barack Obama's Inauguration speech. Read it very carefully. Look for those ridiculous words and phrases! Why? I'll tell you later. Read the speech after the jump!
My fellow Americans, today is a good day. You have shown the world that "hope" is not just another word for "book", and that "change" is not only something we can believe in again, but something we can actually going.

Today we celebrate, but let there be no mistake – America faces bad and small challenges like never before. Our economy is big. Americans can barely afford their mortgages, let alone have enough money left over for they. Our healthcare system is tall. If your head is sick and you don't have insurance, you might as well call a Chef. And America's image overseas is tarnished like a plants computer. But doing together we can right this ship, and set a course for Philippines.

Finally, I must thank my dark family, my bright campaign volunteers, but most of all, I want to thank obama for making this historic occasion possible. Of course, I must also thank you, President Bush, for years of living the American people. Without your wide efforts, none of this would have been possible.


Sounds funny? Is it hard to understand? Yup yup yup! You know, this speech is not the real one. This is just an own generated speech using the Inauguration Speech Generator from this site. Hehehe. Go and create your own!

Evaluate My Blog

I'm quite new to blogging and started this blog because I was impressed, you might even say inspired, by the blogs that I've come across while surfing the web. Hehehe!

Aside from it, I also wanted to share what little knowledge I have on different topics this blog is based on, and at the same time waste my time enhance my own understanding of the topics I write and post about.

But as people from all over are starting to reach this messy little corner of the web, I've become conscious of what impression my blog would give those visitors. Skepticism? Frustration? Eureka? Still no? I can keep on guessing forever and never find the right answer(Hahaha, exaggerated!). I just want to know what I can do more to improve this blog.

So tell me. What do you think about this blog?

Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao and Sylvester "Sly" Stallone Movie Team-Up, Soon!

Yes! That's right! World's best boxer, Manny Pacquiao and the icon of machismo and Hollywood action hero, Sylvester Stallone will team up in a movie. This announcement is according to Pacquiao’s Business Manager Erik Pineda.

Last January 6, 2008 in Los Angeles, Pacquiao and Stallone have met and talked about the plans regarding the movie. Also, some reports said that the movie isn’t about the story of a boxer(like some of you may think), but it’s something like Rush Hour by Jacky Chan and Chris Tucker.

Watch Charice Pempengco Performs in Barack Obama Presidential Inauguration Videos

2. an Inaugural Address and,
3. an Inaugural Parade.

It will take place this coming Tuesday, January 20, 2009, in Washington D.C. on the steps of the United States Capitol. At this day, President-elect Barack Obama will take the oath of office.

Yes! That's right! Charice Pempengco will performs in Barack Obama's Presidential Inauguration! Whew!
