SR1 Million each to be Given to the Families of the Saudi Arabia Flooding
Saudi Arabia is so rich that their King Abdullah has ordered a SR1 Million (that is about PhP13, 000, 000–that’s a lot of money
) aid to the families of every individual who died in the recent flooding in Saudi Arabia. As of this writing, there are 106 people who are confirmed dead and that they are still expecting the numbers to increase.
Although money can’t compensate to the lives that were taken away, but it will be a big help to the grieving family. We didn’t expect that this flooding will happen to a very rich nation where we thought that their drainage and sewerage systems are of high quality as compared to the Philippines which experienced also the most notable floods in its history.
So what is happening right now to the victims of Ondoy in the Philippines? Is the government still thinking of them? Or are they too busy thinking and implementing their strategies for their political plans? Will there be a time that the Philippine government will be able to give a big aid like what Saudi is about to give?
Maybe these recent turn of events–these calamities and environmental problems are caused by the global warming. One day, we might be living underwater… Let’s do our share…help and you will be helped.
GG’s Facebook Comments Against Muslims (Maguindanao Massacre)
(for his other comments, click the images for a clearer view)
These were taken from his facebook account accordingly. Some Filipino Muslims are outraged with his comments…and I too felt sad after reading this. These kind of comments now are not needed because these will just add fuel to the fire. Maybe he was enraged with what happened to Maguindanao last November 23, 2009– 57 people are confirmed dead after they were massacred.
A political aspirant, a family member of the Mangadadatu, is about to file for the Certificate of Candidacy for the 2010 Philippine elections when their convoy was fired upon by armed people. Witnesses said, the Ampatuans are behind the killing. The Ampatuans and the Mangadadatu are Muslims that are considered being powerful political clans in the area. Some media men were also part of the casualty.
I’m hoping that this will not escalate anymore with the coming election fever in the Philppines. I condemn also this kind of killings. Justice for the victims please…
Peace is very hard to achieve when the desire for power is put on top.

Please let us not include other religion and Prophet Isa (A.S.)/Jesus Christ in “lambasting” GG’s comments.

@ GG, et al, you guys can say anything you want against people or even to some Muslims (for they are just human bound to commit mistakes, just like us), but never say injurious words against ISLAM. Muslims may differ in social, political and other opinions, however, we noticed that, when someone expresses blasphemy against ISLAM—Muslims unite to defend the religion.

On the lighter side
, the director of the movie 2012 ( I haven’t seen the movie yet) was asked why almost every symbolic structure in the world in his movie were destroyed–but the Kaaba was not… Was he afraid of having Fatwa in his head?

Manny Pacquiao, Undoubtedly the Pound for Pound King
photos from yahoo sports
Congratulations Manny for winning a TKO on the 12th round against Miguel Cotto! That was a great fight. Boxing fans loved your fight with Cotto. You sure are an exciting fighter. And as for Cotto , you have a big heart.
And now, as a boxing fan, I wanna see a Pacquiao versus Mayweather! Let the Pretty Boy fight Pacman.
Pacquiao-Cotto Fight will make Filipinos glued to their TV sets this November 14
It will be more of a national holiday this coming November 14 in the Philippines. Filipinos, young and old, men and women will be watching the boxing fight of Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao against the Puerto Rican Miguel Cotto whether it will be through pay-per-view, on theaters, internet or even on delayed telecasts. Any fight of Manny is always being watched either from those coming from the high society in the Philippines, government officials and even the downright masses.
I grew up witnessing my dad’s love to boxing. He is a fan of Muhammad Alih, who wouldn’t be? I have seen him watching the fights of the Iron Mike Tyson…and even the usual boxing fights…He is not into basketball or any other sports, he just loves boxing. I remember watching him as he twitches as the boxers fight as if he is the one on the ring…
And now this Sunday, Saturday on MGM Grand arena where the showdown will be held, Filipinos wish that Manny will prevail and that he will win against Miguel Cotto. He will make the Filipinos proud if that will happen for he will be the first boxer to win seven world boxing titles.
And for u Manny, let Cotto taste what you got and be the hero of the Filipinos in this very sad time. It will be better if you will knock out Cotto, but we just wish that you will win…Good luck and god bless.

Noy-noy and Binay for me
This coming 2010 elections in the Philippines, as of now things are being clearer for me as a voter…my choice is Senator Noy-noy for President and Makati Mayor Binay for Vice President. Why? Eventhough they are from different parties, I like their individuality, and their stand. I never went straight voting for a single party. I don’t like Mar. He does not appeal to me in any aspect. Chiz was my number 1 senator on the last election. But now, Chiz is full of negativity, he is always saying negative things. He is full of flowery words, why not just say it straight? I don’t like speeches that is similar to feature articles or writings. Loren Legarda and Joseph
Estrada are a big NO- NO! Loren has two faces. Well that is what politics is, changing sides. As for Erap, this is not a movie that needs a sequel. Philippines does not need gamblers. We need concrete plans. And Manny Villar, I think if he will win his businesses will always be on his lists of priority.
I hope Filipinos will be able to choose the right President, not just based on emotions…Let us pray for the future of our country.
Kim Bum of Boys Over Flowers will do a TV commercial with a Filipino Actress
Kim Bum will be doing a soft drink commercial with Maja Salavador, a local actress (and from a showbiz clan) in the Philippines…Will they have also scenes like what Lee Min Ho and Sandara did? I wonder what will be the concept…

Nokia 5800 XM Image/Video Gallery Bug
Users of Nokia 5800 express music (a touch phone of the Finnish company) may have experienced the gallery bug on their unit, wherein you can’t see the images or videos stored on the memory card by just pressing the image shortcut icon, but instead you need to go to the phone’s file manager in order to see the files. What a hassle! I got the latest firmware update on my phone but sadly it didn’t cure the disease.
There’s a trick wherein you can see the images/videos on the gallery. If you take a snapshot using your phone, then immediately go to the gallery, then viola the images/videos will be seen without even going to the file manager. But that’s just temporary. After a while if you exit the gallery, then click the image icon, you will not see again the images/videos from the memory card.
This bug may happen if you transfer files using your pc to your phone even using the proper software. I noticed that I got some weird files with weird extensions on my sound files under the “tones” of my memory card and I just can’t delete it–but it is not a virus.
Some songs are not added also to my music library. hmp!
Well, I sent an email to nokia, and the customer rep’s advice was for me to do a format, by pressing the *#7370# – the soft reset. I saw on forums too that this is what they did in order to remove the gallery bug.
So what I did was, I did a back-up of my phone/memory card using the nokia pc suite (everything, from settings, I just ticked/checked all the choices). Then I did the soft reset. Nothing. The bug is still present. Then I did the hard format/reset, by pressing the green, red, camera and power button at the same time. Then after that, the phone will let you choose your country. I did format my memory card too.
Then after the formatting is done, I installed my back up files using the PC suite again. Then, I reinstall my firmware again.
And yes, the image/video icon is now working. I can see all the pictures and videos from my memory card without going to the file manager. And the weird looking file with weird extensions are now gone. Plus, when I received a bluetooth file, if it a song , it is added automatically to my music library which did not work before. My dictionary is now working too.
I could have brought it to the nokia center because it is still under warranty, but sometimes you want to try to solve things on your own first, and I’m just glad that it did work for me.
I hope I’ll not experience this bug again. And I hope too that Nokia will release a new firmware with kinetic scrolling for nokia 5800 or a nice update.
Are u with Team JR or Team Dave?
Tayong Dalawa, a Filipino drama, seen on ABS-CBN, will finally end after nine months on the air.
What really caught me on watching the show was their military inspired theme, how things work out in the Philippine Military Academy. But I was never able to watch the whole show due to my work and busy schedule.
And now, fans of the said show have Team JR which is for JR/David Garcia Jr. portrayed by Gerald Anderson and their is also the Team Dave which is for the twin of JR who is Dave and named as David Garcia Jr. too acted by Jake Cuenca. These two guys fell in love with the same girl Audrey played by Kim Chiu. JR and Dave didn’t know that they were siblings or that they were twins while growing up. And that is one of the highlights of the show.
Right now, Audrey married JR after learning that she was not really married to Dave (huh! what a twist).
I really don’t like that Audrey will end up with JR because I don’t want that the twins will have another rift, but sadly that’s what the writers and the directors wanted.
And there is also their other brother Ramon played by Coco Martin, the crook but cute guy who is into smuggling of guns and helping the terrorists. Ramon is one of the nice characters that helped the show to what is it today, as well as the roles of Lola Gets, Marlene, Ingrid, and the other supporting casts.
The show has also proved that the team up of Kim and Gerald will always be a best seller as to what happened also to their Sana’y Maulit Muli, the Filipino remake of the Korean drama MY Girl and their Your Song.
As for who will win in the end, I am for Dave whether what will happen to him. TEAM DAVE! Although I like Ramon too, maybe I can have two teams. As for Audrey, I want her dead on the show, lol. It will be more dramatic, but I don’t think it will happen coz the Kimeralds will not like it.
Tayong Dalawa is one of the best shows this 2009.
