X Factor Stacey Solomon

Last September 8,2009 I posted about an X Factor contestant name Danyl Johnson
who made Simon Cowell likes his performance but not me. Now he's gone to the said reality search.

This morning I found Stacey Solomon, another weird but at least have an X Factor contestant. When she started to sing her audition song What a wonderful world, I was really amazed with her voice. At the end of her singing, all four judges gave her a big "YES".



Will we expecting from her after the audition? Hope she'll make it too.

Jacque Bermejo / Jackie Bermejo hate Philipppines?

Why in the world would our fellow Filipino post at her Facebook account such  treachery words to her kababayan?

Is she that successful in Dubai to say those words? We Filipino bloggers are much interested in campaining for help to those victims of the typhoon Ondoy (Ketsana) and yet there's this woman unexpectedly uttering silly words to victims.

We all know that Manila are known to have sinners but does she realized that even in Dubai there are sinners like what she thinks of here in Philippines.

Human are known to be sinners Jacque Bermejo or Jackie Bermejo. Realized that!

You can enlarge the image at left pane for clear view of her post and some replies at Facebook.

Here's also some twits at Twitter.

Name is Stuart Fergusson Victor Sutcliffe or known as Stuart Sutcliffe, born June 23,1940 at Edinburgh, Scotland, died April 10,1962 at Hamburg, Germany. Cause of death is cerebral hemorrhage.

He left The Beatles to pursue his sense of artistry 8 months after meeting Astrid Kirchherr during their play at Hamburg.

Nelly Arcan dies at 35

Novelist named Nelly Arcan died last September 24,2009. Cause of death is still under investigation. I may not have read her novel entitled Putain and some others but I really like to post about her because I really adore writers.

Nelly Arcan birth name is Isabelle Fortier and born on March 5, 1973 at Lac-Megantic in the Eastern Townships of Quebec. Her novel sexually explicit Putain was published in 2001 and made the shortlists for the Prix Femina and Prix Medici in France. Three years later she then followed it up with another novel Folle.

Nelly was also a columnist for ICI magazine and also appeared on Canal Vox tv show. Three weeks before her death she published a story in the said magazine entitled "Take me, or You're Dead". I do hope this has nothing to do with her death. Cop's suspected suicide for the cause of her death.

May god bless Nelly Arcan's soul.

Michelle Phillips stepmom of Mackenzie Phillips

Michelle Phillips stepmother of Mackenzie Phillips, denied allegations of Mackenzie due to her mental illness. According to her, Mackenzie has been arrested in drug related cases and has been to Celebrity Rehab. There was also a time when she called her (Michelle) telling about this 'incest relationship' they have had with her father and called back again and told that it was joke.

In my opinion, Mackenzie is telling the truth. In fact, Chynna Phillips half-sister of Mackenzie, back her up . Here's some interview with Chynna from LA times.

She tells Us that in 1997, 11 years after MacKenzie says the affair ended, Mackenzie called Chynna and told her about the physical relationship.

"Was he actually raping her? I don't know," says Chynna. "Do I believe that they had an incestuous relationship and that it went on for 10 years? Yes."

I think that would be enough.

Know more about Michelle and Chynna Phillips.

19.2 pound baby

Last night I stumble upon the news about a 19.2 pound baby boy born in Indonesia by Ani. I can't imagine how long it took to deliver the said baby boy. You see, I also have a son who was born last year with just about 7 kilos pounds but my wife stayed at the delivery room for about 12 hours. I know there's a lot of factors that why it took that long.

With this 19 pound baby boy which is 24.4 inches long may be the biggest boy born ever. Ani must be so proud with her still unnamed baby. Every mother are often bragging about the weight of their baby after born but I think it's not worth it.

If you are wondering if this 19 pound baby boy  is the heaviest newborn in history, the answer is no. The record belongs to an American infant born in 1879. He weighed 23 pounds, 12 ounces but died a few hours after being born. Another one is the heaviest baby weighed 22 lbs., 8 ounce as reported by ABC.

May Ani and her future nanny will have enought strength to carry this 19 pound baby boy all the time.

Below is the picture of Ani and her still unnamed baby.

John Phillips | Papa John

Who is John Phillips?

John Phillips also known as Papa John, a musician member of the group called The Mamas and the Papas.

According the entry from Wikipedia, John Phillips longed for success in music industry and I supposed didn't make it.

As for his personal background, he had married four women namely Susan Adams, Michelle Gilliam, Geneviève Waïte and finally Michelle Phillips.

In 1973, despite by the encouragement given by Mick Jagger of the Rolling Stones to record for a new album, he failed Jagger because of his drug addiction.

What really alarming with his life is the revelation of his daughter MacKenzie Phillips that she slept with him. He even introduces cocaine to Mackenzie. Mackenzie also reveals to Oprah that there was the time that she woke up having s*x with his father John.

His story is not really new to us. Hollywood artists or even local ones tend to get married not just once but as many as they can have. Also, drug addiction is often associated with having a lot of problems this is what I see from John Phillips. You see, in life not everything that you thought a solution is really a solution.

President Obama at David Letterman

On September 5, I posted about a guy dying to do Letterman. It was really fascinating and worth a moral lesson too. According to Yahoo!'s article today Obama laughs on Letterman, the President came to the show because of the heart-shaped potato. Indeed it was really about the potato which Obama really like to see for himself.

That's seems to be an odd reason. For the rest of the taping, issues about health care and war in Iraq has been raised to the president and some audience found his answers irreverent.

On health care issue,

Obama also had his most irreverent answer yet on the question of whether some of the vitriolic reaction to his health care plan is driven at least partly by racism.

"First of all, I think it's important to realize that I was actually black before the election," Obama said to huge laughs from Letterman and the audience.

On Iraq war:

Obama said he won't make a decision on sending in more troops, though, until he completes a comprehensive review of the war effort and settles on his next strategy.

"I'm going to be asking some very hard questions," Obama said.

 Despite those President's responses, he indeed enjoy the show.

Nerf Herder

Perhaps one of the music genres that I can't live without listening to is punk rock. During my college days I'm really love listening to punk rock band Nerf Herder when it was introduced to me by my classmate by exchanging cassette tape. Yes, you heard it right. We used to exchange cassette tape before to introduce and share music.Well, that's what we really up to before. You're in if you have the latest album of a latest or popular band. Gone are those days, now you can just watch music videos and listen from video&mp3 streaming sites for free (though you still have to pay your ISP for that). Also, download them through Internet P2P softwares sites.


So much for that intro because it sounds like I'm that old. I'm just posting here one of my long lost favorite punk rock band Nerf Herder. Actually, I just missed listening to their music that's why. I immediately visit their site Nerf Herder Dot Net to check for any updates, little amazed that they released their comeback album entitled Nerf Herder IV after six years of taking a break in music scene.

Here's the music video of their song Van Halen from their self-titled album released in 1996. More than a decade right?



If you feel like singing along with it, here's also the lyrics.

I bought Van Halen I
It was the best damn record I ever owned
TG&Y 1978
Two hand tapping guitar technique really got me off
Eruption yeah, ain't talkin' 'bout love, I'm on fire
Tomorrow may come
Tomorrow may never come again
Can't you hear Jamie cryin?
She's runnin' with the devil
I bought Women and Children First
Fair Warning and Van Halen II
Dance the night away
1984 my favorite record yeah I wore it down
Might as well jump
Tomorrow may come
Tomorrow may never come again
Can't you hear Jamie cryin?
She's runnin' with the devil
Is this what you wanted, Sammy Hagar?
Sammy Hagar, is this what you wanted, man?
Dave lost his hairline but you lost your cool buddy
Can't drive 55
I'll never buy your lousy records again
Again, again, again, never again...
Tomorrow may come
Tomorrow may never come again
Can't you hear Jamie cryin?
She's runnin' with the devil
Jump jump jump jump jump jump jump, might as well jump

Happy Eid'l Fitr from Cotabato

The past month of Ramadhan (in Hijri/Muslim calendar ) is another worth experience to me. Waking up early morning (2am - 3am) just to cook my food for Imsak (before dawn meal). I'm glad in a way I have survived this year's one month fasting without eating and drinking even touching my wife in daytime.

There were also times that I can't wake up to took my Imsak and continued fasting till Iftar (allowed to eat again after sunset) which make thinner now. During the Eid'l Fitr we will then again wake up morning to take a bath for the morning prayer. As ordered by Darul Ifta in Mindanao, the Eid'l Fitr prayer should be 7:00am. Also, praying in an outdoor during this prayer is more blessed because according to Hadith (saying of Prophet Mohammad S.A.W) angels goes down and spread blessings to all of those praying.

As part of the Muslim obligations during Ramadhan, we are also required to give Zakaat (charity to the poor, reverted to Islam, orphan or anything agreed by Darul Ifta to receive). I gave mine at Masjid Al-borhan last night before prayer time for Isha amounting equivalent to two and half kilos of rice we ate during fasting.

Right now, some Cotabateños go to beaches as their annual celebration of Eid'l Fitr. Until now, I still hear fireworks blasting once in a while.

I prayed for acceptance of fasting and prayers, forgiveness from Allah and to some people whom I think I've hurt directly or indirectly with my thoughts or words and in what I have done or failed to do.

Again, Happy Eid'l Fitr to all Muslims around the world. Till next Ramadhan, Inshallah.

Earthquake in Cotabato Sept 18 2009

A low intensity earthquake shake Cotabato City awhile ago for about 20 seconds. My wife and son was already in bed while earthquake was on-going. My son was already asleep to have his first experience with earthquake.

At any rate, I'm still thankful that the earthquake was not strong to damage properties and lives in general. I remember when I was in grade school, each time we experience earthquake we were brought out to an open field to make sure that we won't be hit by any materials that could fall to us.

Here's some precautionary measures from FEMA during earthquake


Stay as safe as possible during an earthquake. Be aware that some earthquakes are actually foreshocks and a larger earthquake might occur. Minimize your movements to a few steps to a nearby safe place and stay indoors until the shaking has stopped and you are sure exiting is safe.

If indoors


DROP to the ground; take COVER by getting under a sturdy table or other piece of furniture; and HOLD ON on until the shaking stops. If there isn’t a table or desk near you, cover your face and head with your arms and crouch in an inside corner of the building.
Stay away from glass, windows, outside doors and walls, and anything that could fall, such as lighting fixtures or furniture.
Stay in bed if you are there when the earthquake strikes. Hold on and protect your head with a pillow, unless you are under a heavy light fixture that could fall. In that case, move to the nearest safe place.
Use a doorway for shelter only if it is in close proximity to you and if you know it is a strongly supported, loadbearing doorway.
Stay inside until shaking stops and it is safe to go outside. Research has shown that most injuries occur when people inside buildings attempt to move to a different location inside the building or try to leave.
Be aware that the electricity may go out or the sprinkler systems or fire alarms may turn on.
DO NOT use the elevators.

If outdoors


Stay there.
Move away from buildings, streetlights, and utility wires.
Once in the open, stay there until the shaking stops. The greatest danger exists directly outside buildings, at exits, and alongside exterior walls. Many of the 120 fatalities from the 1933 Long Beach earthquake occurred when people ran outside of buildings only to be killed by falling debris from collapsing walls. Ground movement during an earthquake is seldom the direct cause of death or injury. Most earthquake-related casualties result from collapsing walls, flying glass, and falling objects.

If in a moving vehicle

Stop as quickly as safety permits and stay in the vehicle. Avoid stopping near or under buildings, trees, overpasses, and utility wires.
Proceed cautiously once the earthquake has stopped. Avoid roads, bridges, or ramps that might have been damaged by the earthquake.

If trapped under debris

Do not light a match.
Do not move about or kick up dust.
Cover your mouth with a handkerchief or clothing.
Tap on a pipe or wall so rescuers can locate you. Use a whistle if one is available. Shout only as a last resort. Shouting can cause you to inhale dangerous amounts of dust.

I think everything goes as usual now. Again, I thank Allah for keeping us safe. Alhamdullilah.

Yahoo! Mail with Apps

Here's a refreshing look of my Yahoo! mail today.

I was a little surprised awhile ago with my Yahoo! mail with its new look particularly the graphics. At first, I noticed some of the icons and tabs are not embossed. Everything looks flat with unlike before where tabs and other icons looks 3D.

Anyway, what really caught my attention was the box at the lower left entitled Application. By default, there are eleven applications available for you to use or enable.

To some bloggers, these applications are called aggregators. Aggregrated apps gives you an option to grab and link your datas, updates, photos, micro blog post, bookmarked links from other social sites. For instance Flickr, one of the applications available, you will have the option to browse public photos or your photos from your Flickr account and have it share/send to your contacts immediately.

I think this is just the beginning of the upgrades of Yahoo! mail since they engage their Yahoo! search to Microsoft's Bing. I also remember Yahoo! told that the deal will give them ample time to make Yahoo! mail even better.

A report from Yale daily.

    Neighbors say they saw Clark and his girlfriend, Jennifer Hromadka, leaving with suitcases on Sunday around the time cops found Le’s body.

    “I saw them leaving this weekend with travel bags like they were in a hurry,” said a 35-year-old neighbor who lives in the same Middletown apartment building.

911 Moment of Silence

As the whole world knows, September 11, 2001 was the most tragic event in America wherein the Twin Towers were attacked by terrorist group allegedly lead by Osama Bin Laden.

There has been speculation that the event was clearly a setup or known to the government of United States, that is according to the documentary of Michael Moore entitled 9/11 Fahrenheit . Michael Moore is known be an activist against the presidency of George W. Bush or to any anomaly US Government have which includes Health Care Program. I would suggest to watch the said documentary movie for you to know more about Michael's analysis regarding the tragedy.

Today, eight years after the tragedy President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama at White House will gather on the South Lawn for the Moment of Silence.

In honor to the 2,974 who lost their lives, flag will be  lowered half-staff which is in accordance to Executive Order 2006-10.

May this tragedy never happen again to any country.

Drag Race is on in Cotabato City | Ramadhan Event

For the past few years of Ramadhan in Cotabato City, it has been a hobby of motorist to have a drag race at night. Although I believe it has been prohibited by the city mayor because the accident it may bring and for the safety of Cotabateños.

I love going out with my cousins during those times to see races and if there's no race we'll proceed to some hangouts and eat instead.

This year, I'm not sure that there's still a drag race held because I'm really that busy as a father started last year. You see, my son Izian is now one year old and sort of annoying because of his being so active. He now walks around the our room and hold or throw everything and even pull wires he reaches.

I blogged about this drag race because awhile ago I heard a screaming car a block away from our house. Grrr! I just said "Madapa ka sana!" hehe.. So irritating in the middle of the night! I'm not enjoying that hobby anymore.

Obama's speech outburst Rep. Wilson

At the Yahoo! featured post tonight (Philippines) I noticed the picture of President Obama and Rep. Joe Wilson with caption The night's defining moment.

Here's the score, Obama delivered his speech with some harsh words towards his critics. Rep. Joe Wilson reacted and shouted "You lie!. Rep. Wilson was pointing to Obama's claimed his plan wouldn't offer free care to illegal immigrants.

Sen. Lindsey Graham was disappointed with the Obama's speech and says it made it more difficult. "He appeared to be angry at his critics and disappointed the American people were not buying the proposals he has been selling. ... If the Obama administration and congressional Democrats go down this path and push a bill on the American people they do not want, it could be the beginning of the end of the Obama presidency." (yahoo news).


Most of the US citizen believe that health care program is very unsatisfactory, find it hard to avail at times and long for reform.

For the past weeks, Americans has been waiting for Obama's outline for health care program reform and yet he failed to do so. Which I think as one of the reasons why Obama's speech outburst his critics.

Wordpress MU

For the past few months of using Wordpress particularly in creating themes from PSD to Wordpress theme. I've learned a lot in doing it regularly. It has hone my knowledge in CSS, JS frameworks (Jquery which is my favorite) and Wordpress codex in general.

The X Factor 2009 - Danyl Johnson

Impress me!

That's all I can say to Danyl Johnson who is an aspirant for the reality talent search The X Factor 2009.

During his first audition Simon Cowell commented "That was single-handedly the best first audition I have ever heard."

Some of those who watched his first audition thinks that he's Susan Boyle male counterpart which I disagree!

He may have the talent but I'm not really enjoying what he's doing! He's not qualified to be the male counterpart of Susan Boyle.

Just keep it going Danyl, I'm just one of those who are not pleased to your performance.

Gerald Marian love team?

I'm not a huge fan of the local artists in this post but since I found this edited/Photoshoped picture of them I start wondering if their chemistry will work to both Kapamilya & Kapuso fans.

Will their chemistry be the same with Richard Gutierez and KC Concepcion? Will this team up make the two rival networks unite?

This might be for fun but who knows if this team up will really work. What do you think Kapamilya & Kapuso?

Steve Mazan | Dying to Do 'Letterman'

I never thought that there's a person who I might say obsessed with David Letterman. I think Letterman is that popular in US particularly his show Late Show with David Letterman where celebrity guest are being interviewed by himself.

The show alone is really fun for me to watch because some celebrity shows their humorous side.  But tonight while doing some Wordpress stuff, I took a rest visiting Yahoo!'s homepage and surprised with the latest post "Dying to Do 'Letterman'. A man named Steve Mazan a stand-up comedian who was diagnosed with cancer and been dreaming of interviewed by Letterman.

After all his efforts including setting up a website dyingtodoletterman.com, his dream came to reality. What really caught my attention posting this was regarding Steve's motto "If you stop chasing your dream, you're already dead." 


Would you agree to his motto? Well, I really do. How bout you?

A thousand investment to million

How in the world would $1000 worth of investment makes it to million?

At first I was sort of skeptical with this post at Yahoo! and really thought of it as another fairy tale story. Indeed, it is like a fairy tale happens to two best-friends who makes their $2000 investment to million.

According to the article at Forbes, Adrian Salamunovic and Nazim Ahmed were not actually looking for the million worth of idea it just popped out during their drinking session.

Ahmed worked for Bio-Rad, which markets DNA-imaging equipment. Salamunovic noticed Bio-Rad's brochure on the table and to his untrained eye, the images looked like art.

Interpretation with the DNA images as an art changed their life and makes them millionaire now. Here's how they do their business.

they outsourced DNA imaging to a DNA-extraction lab in Montreal. Working out of Ahmed's apartment, they sold a few prints to family and friends. As the work caught on, they were invited to showcase at an Absolut Vodka-sponsored party in Ottawa's SOHO neighborhood. The new company, called DNA 11, sold $40,000 worth of art in the first month. An 8"x10" mini-DNA portrait goes for $200, while a 36"x54" wall canvas garners $1,300. The Museum of Modern Art features DNA 11 art in its museum stores in New York and Tokyo. The company's revenue in 2008: $1.4 million.

Flood hits Sultan Kudarat again

Another flood hits Sultan Kudarat Municipality today. It's been three days of heavy rain that triggers another flood for this year. It's sad that this calamity keeps coming back every time there's an heavy rain here in Central Mindanao. In fact, there's a boy who was drowned due to the flood. 

Budget for the rehabilitation of Mindanao River Basin has been hailed by Cotabato Archbishop during the 33rd meeting at the Isla Parilla Resort Hotel. It is also worth noting that President Arroyo already approved a P50-million project study for the Mindanao River Basin. 

Mindanao River Basin is the country’s second largest river basin with an area of 23,170 sq km which includes the major rivers of Banga, Ala, Pulangi, Mindanao, Simuay and Tamontaka.

LGUs, DPWH and other concern agencies has been working on the said rehabilitation. For the government agencies "Please work on it immediately".

Gmail outage

I learned from BBC that Gmail was down Monday afternoon and Tuesday morning but I haven't experienced it though. I don't missed using Gmail everyday and I think I'm lucky enough not to experience the outage.

Here's an update from Gmail blog.

Update (2:37 pm): We've fixed the issue, and Gmail should be back up and running as usual. We're still investigating the root cause of this outage, and we'll share more information soon. Thanks for bearing with us.

We know many of you are having trouble accessing Gmail right now — we are too, and we definitely feel your pain. We don't usually post about minor issues here (the Apps status dashboard and the Gmail Help Center are usually where this kind of information goes). Because this is impacting so many of you, we wanted to let you know we're currently looking into the issue and hope to have more info to share here shortly. If you have IMAP or POP set up already, you should be able to access your mail that way in the meantime. We're terribly sorry for the inconvenience and will get Gmail back up and running as soon as possible.

With that, hope everything okay with the million of Gmail users.
