9 Mornings

9 Mornings or "Simbang Gabi" brings significance to our lives. It is a Filipino Christmas tradition. It is a series of nine(9) dawn masses. In our province, the ringing of the church bells and the sounds of Christmas songs fills all over the town that starts at 3 in the morning so as to awake people and be ready for the 4 a.m. mass. It begins on December 16 and ends on midnight of December 24, which culminates in a midnight mass. It was introduced by Spanish friars, simbang gabi or misa de gallo was started to allow the farmers to hear mass before going to the fields. After the mass , traditional delicacies await church goer. The delicious bibingka, suman, biko puto bumbong are sold outside the church. Some people who attended straight simbang gabi says that all their prayers and wishes were granted. They believes that completing the dawn masses will make a wish come true. To the believers and religious person, old and young finds time to attend dawn masses. Many make their sacrifice to rise early not only to have their wishes come true but to follow a tradition. This Christmas is not complete with out attending simbang gabi. It also brings us a double celebration in our lives as a couple because the start of simbang is also the 35th birthday of Noel and the 8th year Anniversary of our marriage. We are truly grateful that we experience a wonderful lives together with Keisha inspite of all the problems that comes our way. Hoping that we will last longer and live a meaningful life ahead of us.

Steamed Rice Cake with brown sugar

My mom loves to cook "biko" or steamed rice cake. Everytime we were home, she eagerly prepare the ingredients and find way to cook it in the right way. Every occassion or even weekdays Biko is always present in our table. Cooking rice cake is not easy. There are lots of ways of cooking and style of the Biko. It has to be a lot of effort and patience to mix sugar and rice to have a better appearance and taste. Here is the list of ingredients needed for cooking:

glutinous rice

4 cups water

1 tbsp. vanilla extract

1 cup brown sugar

banana leaves ( optional )

grated coconut meat from 4 coconuts (reserve coco milk)

Cook glutinous rice in water just like you do with plain steamed rice.
In saucepan, pour brown sugar, coconut milk, and vanilla extract.
Mix, stir and let boil. Add cooked glutinous rice to coconut milk mixture and cook until thick.
Spread evenly on platter (or bilao) lined with banana leaves.
Slice and serve.

Note: It is best serve with hot native coffee or a cold softdrinks.

Celebrating Christmas with Miley Cyrus

Celebrating Christmas was different in Cyrus Clan. It's good that they are always around to share everything during X'mas season. When you're a pop star one thing's for certain: You never know where your family is going to land for the holidays, according to Miley Cyrus. "It is so chaotic all the time," says Cyrus, who spreads Christmas cheer in a reindeer outfit on the Dec. 14 episode of her hit show Hannah Montana. "We just always make sure we're together no matter what." For the Cyrus clan, "we're never really all home on a holiday, so it's kind of hard to keep traditions alive," says Cyrus, 16. "The most important thing is not about doing the same thing every year, but creating new memories."Cyrus is usually the one to capture those feel-good moments. "I'm always the one taking the pictures, and then I never am in the pictures!" says Cyrus. "I wish I had not been obsessing with taking the pictures and remembered to embrace the moment." This year, however, will be different. Says the singer: "It's important at Christmastime to be daring – to put your cell phone and your computer away and actually be with your family and not just be worrying about other things that you can deal with every other day."

In laws dominates my world!!!

In-laws sucks!!!!!grrr! Sometimes my patience endures till the end. But this time, it was over! we were living beside their house and the only thing that separates us are plants that was displayed and its for sale. So every time I have things to be done or plans about our home, in laws were there to comment or suggest anything . Sometimes I'd just say yes or go with their suggestions but annoyance struck me and back of my mind tells me that I want them to evaporate. Living in the same house creates chaos and freedom was far to me. But never in my life rather never dream of living with them in one house. Big thanks to my husband who build his own house. I want to have a family of my own, stood at my own, live peacefully and do things on my own. Even though, these situations arises, still I respect and love them. Besides it is the family of my husband. Being the only one who resides near them, I have to have an endless patience(Oh God!please let me have this!) and try to be good daughter in law to them.

Boy George has been convicted

Boy George has been convicted of falsely imprisoning a male escort. The jury in a London court sided with Audun Carlsen, 29, who claimed that the former Culture Club frontman (real name George O'Dowd), 46, had handcuffed him and beat him with a metal chain. This musician was known from his 80's hits such as "Karma Chameleon".
Admitted to cuffing the escort, but said it was because he suspected the man of tampering with his computer. According to the U.K.'s Press Association, the singer looked grim as the verdict was delivered. The singer was released on bail until his Jan. 16 sentencing. Judge David Radford warned Boy George that he was likely to face jail time. "The fact that your bail is being continued does not imply that this will be dealt with by a non-custodial sentence," he said, CNN reports. "I don't want any false expectations created." He has a long history of drug abuse in 2006. He spent 5 days sweeping the streets of New York as his court ordered community service. I think this was the 2nd time of the musician facing the law.

Child's burden in School through their Backpacks


I am worried to my child Keisha who is now in level 3 studying in a private school who carries all her things in school through backpacks. As if she's carrying the world-her textbooks, notebooks, baon and girly stuff on her small and fragile shoulders. Everyday she caries everything even though all her different textbooks may not be use all for one day. The school did not allow preschool students to use trolley or stroller bags so as to avoid accident to other children. Backpack may be practical carryall for kids school stuff but be aware that one day it may lead to a series of health concerns for children. Improper use of backpacks can really cause stress to the bones as well as the body. It can be source of damage to a child's spine. Carrying heavy loads could lead to medical problems such as muscle fatigue, scoliosis and spondylitis. So, to ease the burden everyday for Keisha, I have pack the right amount of things inside her bag and the rest will be left in our home, things that will not be needed on that particular day. I also teach her to carry her stuff in correct and safe way. Making sure that snug are not too tight and distributing the weight evenly and stabilize the load. Remind her also to rest if she starts feeling some discomfort while carrying the bag. It is more important to teach children the proper way in carrying their backpacks to avoid hunched backs later on. Child's bone are still developing so unnecessary stress on the young bones can alter its growth.

A text from Jan

My cousin Jan text me a simple thought that reminds me or maybe it can reminds all of us that people around us needs a simple words of care to show that we love them. Sometimes when we are busy, we tend to neglect to say a mere thank you for something that they have done for us. Let me share this one for you...

"Remember to spend some time with your loved ones because they're not going to be around forever...

Remember to say I LOVE YOU even though you haven't say it for ages, and mean it...

Hold their hands and cherish the moment for someday those person won't be there again...

Give time to love, give time to speak and listen."

So, my dear readers, do it now and enjoy every moment with your loved ones. Live life to the fullest. !!!
And to my cousin Jan, here is my online expression of saying this words, I love you ne!!!Million thanks for everything.
And also for my two sis, though I am not vocal of saying this, My love for you is endless.
And for my readers, thanks for spending your time reading my blog. I may not be consistent in updating my blog, just keep on visiting.

Missing my folks

I have talk to my folks through long distance, asking them of their whereabouts and their condition since they were living alone together in our home at the province. Hearing their voices and stories from days work makes me feel lighter and secured. Their situation of living together without us, they have 3 siblings and I am the youngest, started when we studied at Davao City. At that time, the least we could visit them is for 1 day or spending more time when its school break. Now, that we are having our own family, Opps! not all of us. It's just me and my other sister who is now happily married spend longer time with them during Christmas season. The eldest sister who was still enjoying her single blessedness goes home when she can have her one or two months vacation from abroad. Sometimes, thinking of the situation that my parents have right now was also a learning experience for me. Time will come that Me and Noel can also experience the same way that my parents did. Children leaving their homes looking for their better future. Even though we are apart with each other, the love and care was still there and the most important thing is we communicate almost everyday. And thanks for the technology!.

Daily Calcium is good for the Bones

Meeting your daily calcium requirement needs to be a lifetime commitment. 1,ooo mg of calcium and 400 IU of vitamin daily if you re under 50, and 1,500 mg of calcium and 800 IU of D if you re over 50. How to achieved this? Here's how to get it? Three servings of calcium-rich foods daily provide about 900mg of calcium. Best bets: fat-free or low fat dairy products and calcium fortified orange juice. Combined with the 250mg that you typically get from other foods, you' ll meet the quota. Also, pick a calcium supplement that you like-whether it's chewable, chocolate flavored, or simply a tablet and you'll be more likely to take it regularly. And the best thing is to keep a supply in your purse, car or desk drawer for a convenient lunchtime or suppertime dose. Calcium is best absorbed in doses larger than 500mg taken at least 3 hours apart. Remember, Calcium counts and this is our bones need.

Victim of Diabetes

This morning, after I have washed all our clothes, a customer friend Esther visit our garden. She was with his husband planning to buy some cenisio plants. But before we can go concentrate to our business proper, she tells me a story about the condition of his husband. His name is Bebot. Nong Bebot as I call him, showed to me his small toe at the right leg that was wrap by a bandage. It was getting black and pus was drifting the other day as Esther relates in her story. He takes Amoxiclav tablet prescribed by his doctor but the condition and the effect was still the same. He feels numb and as I noticed, the color of his skin was yellowish. I pity him of his condition because they are good people and down to earth. They send their children in the best school, acquired some properties, living in a comfortable life through their business which is plants. They are also a good friend of the family. My husband Noel also helps him understand the proper care on how to take care of a diabetic person. Esther too was eager to bring his husband to a diabetologist for proper medication and to avoid amputate his right leg. Nong Bebot to finds consolation and advice from my father-in-law who was now in wheel chair because of he has no right leg right now. He is also a diabetic person for 4 years now. In the end, after the long story, business was resume.Business is business.hehehe So to my dear readers, take care of your health, eat healthy foods and do some exercise. Live life to the fullest and enjoy it.

New Way to treat Corns

My husband Noel suffer painful area especially in his toe of dead, thickened skin for a long time. We went to the dermatologist twice for the treatment and bought an expensive cream that was prescribed by a doctor. He used it for months but still the corn is kept on coming back. He still complains everyday because he can still feel the tingling feeling that it gives. I read several books, and apply the helpful tips that I have learned. Corn are your skin's way of protecting itself against repeated rubbing or pressure from tight shoes. To help minimize the discomfort corns cause, try covering them with some soft padding (we bought one in mall, and it helps). And also find a new pair of comfortable shoes, one that allows your toes to wiggle. And to soften and remove corns, try this helpful tips, First, Soak your feet in warm water for 20 minutes. Second, Cut a square from the peel of a fresh pineapple and gently rest the inside directly on the corn. Using first aid tape, attach the peel to the corn overnight and cover it with a sock.Third, remove carefully the peel the following morning and soak your foot again. It may take as many as four consecutive nights of applying the pineapple peel until the corn falls off or comes off easily by rubbing it gently with a pumice stone. Why pineapple? It says that the secret is bromelain, an enzyme found in pineapple plants and fruits that softens and breaks down the dead skin. Although there's been no research that pineapple peel can remove corns, some people have reported success with this remedy and it is safe and natural alternative to over the counter medicine. So, if you got corns, try this helpful tips, I'm sure the discomfort will be gone and you can move freely.

Zac Efron in his best suit

Who would think that this man would look gorgeous and sexy?Before he was only a boy next door image but now it turns out to be one of the Sexiest Men Alive. As he gets older, the High School Musical 3 star finds himself graduating from a "jeans and sandals" wardrobe to a more sophisticated look. "There's something timeless about suits," says the 21-year-old. "A few years ago I didn't own a single one. Now I've got a small collection going. The best thing he has is in his eyes actually the face that speaks itself. I do hope he will have more projects to work and enhance his acting and singing skills.

Home Alone

Our home was empty!I could barely hear the sound of the lizard crawling in one place to another and the ticking of the clock near the front door. Noel went to Cebu and Keisha stays in her grandma's house for awhile. As we were watching shows on tv, Keisha and I were sooo quiet and don't talk too much because we were seriously watching the opera soap and spongebob.hehehe It is not good living alone and spending the rest of life without someone to turn to. So for someone out there who live alone, Go and try to find a companion to make your life meaningful and happy . It may ease your boredom and loosen your insanity in life.

Travelling in nearby cities

Yesterday, we travel to Kidapawan City to buy some seedling plants for our stocks in our garden. We have our lunch in Talisay where restaurants can be seen in the highway and overlooking the sea. Dolly Restaurant offers a lot of seafood's to choose from. They have the curacha(big crabs), lokon (shrimps), tuna panga and belly fish, grilled bihod (roe), native chicken soup, grilled pusit (white squid) seafood pansit, lato and guso(all kinds of seaweeds) and the Imbao (clams). As excited as we are to take our lunch, me and my daughter ordered lokon and seaweeds. My husband ordered clam soup because it is only his favorite food to eat besides he is allergic to crustacean foods. Anyway, we have our hearty lunch and its so yummy. They have serve 3 pieces lokon(shrimp) for us as one order. I was shocked because I was expecting that they will serve more in one plate. I let Mica eat all the shrimp meat and the rest was mine. I have also a bowl of clam soup and seaweeds. After this, We travel again straight to Kidapawan and bought all the plants that we needed. At 4 in the afternoon we were ready again to go home back to Davao City. Heavy Rain started to fall and it the road was so dark. Again we stop by at Mcdonalds in Digos City and take our dinner. At 7 in he evening we finally reach our home and my stomach started to rumble. I went straight to the comfort room and seated there for 30 minutes. And the next morning I was ill, I have been to the comfort room starting at 2:30 in the morning until 6. Now, I was feeling okay and started to blog here, my daughter was already in school serviced by my husband. I guess, the shrimp and the clam was the culprit of my stomachache but I have no regrets having them for lunch.heheheh Good day!

The sexy Salma Hayek in Orange Dress

Salma Hayek has been putting her clothes to the test to see if they can hold in her massive breasts. She is really just lovely and apparently loves showing off her fantastic cleavage. She’s been even more buxom since she gave birth to her 11-month-old daughter...est of all, her boobs are real, at least that’s what most people say. I’ve read a few places that say she’s had implants, but I just don’t know about that. I’ve seen photos of her family and it seems to be a family trait. They fit her body type. .Apparently, her French billionaire former boyfriend and baby daddy, François-Henri Pinault, enjoys them too. The two former lovers were said to have hooked up while she was in Europe the past couple of weeks. She was in Europe doing television appearances promoting immunizations for children. That’s why she was dressed up in a dirndl (traditional Bavarian dress) on the German television show Wetten Dass (Want to Bet That?). She just about had a nip slip on the show, much to the delight of everyone. She was also filming an episode of 30 Rock in New York. She was wearing a bright orange dress cut down to her waist with cleavage hanging out everywhere. She had boobs busting out everywhere. Alec Baldwin was filming with her and from the photos seemed to be more than attentive to Hayek.

Keisha's Style

Tomorrow is my big day. My daughter Mic keeps on counting and checking the calendar of the date and time of my birthday. She start to marks the calendar X since the beginning of the day of the month. She tells me that she has a secret gift. I always ask her if what was it and the answer is secret. But one time, when we stroll at the mall she wants to choose an item that I like and makes me happy. I choose the cheaper pocketbook and told me to pay for it in the counter. I asked her if for whom will the item go, she told me that it is her birthday present for me with a big grin showing her lost 2 front teeth.Wise girl!!! Anyway, I'd just kiss her and say thank you for the "effort" that she made and we immediately dine at McDonalds and eat her favorite chocolate Sundae. All I wish for my birthday is good health and long life to my family and hoping that we could travel together in other country.Dreaming!!!!hahahaha.

Videokes in the Neighborhood

I have this neighbor who irritates me every night. She owns a little grocery store who sells everything. From dry goods to wet goods. Every people in the village bought from her with no choice because it is the only mini store that is available. Even though the prices of commodity was little bit higher but still the villagers cater to her store especially in times of emergency. It is also advantage for us because in times of need and shortage in our kitchen stuff, we ran into this store and buy immediately what we needed in our home. But one thing I hate to this store is that the owner has her videoke machines inside her house. It will start as early as 3 in the afternoon until the wee hours in the morning. The loud noise that came from this machines plus the customers who sings out of tune makes me nuts!.grrr!!! Sometimes, customers are drank and sing with their lungs out disturbs all the neighbors of this nuisance things. Pity for all the students who have the exams for the next day, for I am sure that they could not concentrate with their studies. And also for the new mothers who have a little children that disturbs the restful sleep that grabs by the loud videoke machines. But all if these irritations of mine was being vanished when the Mayor in this cities ordered to ban 24/7 all the videokes in the residential areas because of the numerous complaints that he received. Though the City Mayor gives curfew on establishments who operates videokes outside residential areas. Thanks for this law for it gives us all comfort and a good night sleep to every one of us in the village but sorry for my neighbor who owns the little store, I am sure that there are other ways to earn money aside from this business.

Tablet stuck in my throat

I am not feeling well and my backache hurts. I decided to take paracetamol 500mg to ease the pain. As I reach the refrigerator for a glass of water I already have the tablet in my mouth. So when I drink the water the tablet stuck in my throat and panic strikes me. But I tried to drink again the cold water but still it was there. I just close my eyes because I don't want to vomit it and take it all out. Slowly I drink again for the third time, and thanks God, it was slowly going down in my stomach. In my entire life, I really hate taking tablet medicine. It will always stuck in my throat and it shivers me. Maybe, it was not best to drink tablet with a cold really cold water.Isn't it? But for now and its already midnight, I have no choice but to take it because I could no longer bear the pain at the back. I do hope the pain will gone sooner so that I could stay longer here in front of the monitor.

Old Friend

This afternoon, after I finished all my household chores, my husband and I decided to go in a mall to buy something for the clogged drainage in our kitchen. As we walk towards the hardware store I saw Gemma my high school classmate and friend who was also shopping in the mall together with her children. Her physical appearance change a lot and she looks chubby. We were dear friends during our high school days and spend time together always. After our high school graduation I have never heard of her whereabouts. I was so happy and glad meeting old friend like her that I have never seen long time ago. I do hope we could see each other again since she will be staying in our province for good. Keep in touch Gem.!

MIchelle Obama on Ellen DeGeneres show

When it comes to candidates' children, Michelle Obama says both presidential campaigns agree: leave the kids alone. The wife of Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama, 47, says on The Ellen DeGeneres Show "one of the reasons why I'm proud of my husband" is his slience about GOP vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin's family issues. "I know that they care about their kids, and we should let them deal with this issue," Michelle Obama, 44, a mother of two young daughters, says in the show scheduled to air Monday. "This shouldn't be an issue for political discussion." Palin, the running mate of John McCain, announced earlier this week that her 17-year-old unmarried daughter Bristol is five months pregnant. Sarah Palin made history on Dec. 4, 2006, when she took office. As the 11th governor of Alaska, she is the first woman to hold the office.Since taking office, her top priorities have been resource development, education and workforce development, public health and safety, and transportation and infrastructure development.

Keisha was my Best Buddy

My daughter was my best friend. A while ago, she was in front of the computer playing games online, and I was in front of the television watching the local news. She keep on calling me just to let me hear the song of High School musical playing in win amp. She even hug me and telling me to be in the room to dance and sing with her. At first, I was irritated and annoyed with her, because I am still watching my favorite shows on TV. But when she stop calling me I peep through the hole in the door and seen her dancing with all the styles. I was amused and keep on smiling. I immediately join her, but first she hug me again and we dance waltz with all the actions until we do the different moves. We were happy and keep on laughing together. I have my best time with my Keisha, who was sweet and always hug me. She was my joy and the best thing that happens to me. I love her so much.

Telling a secret

My daughter Mica loves secret. She likes to whisper in my ears all her secrets so that her Dad can't hear what she's saying. Every time she has a problem in school she will talk to me privately especially when her things in school were misplace or lost or just a comment from her classmates. The first time when she tells me her secret was when her toy car was nowhere to be found inside the classroom. The teacher required them to bring their favorite toy car as a project. We kept our secret for a week from his dad so that Daddy will not scold her and she hopes that toy car will return to her after all the teachers in pre-school were informed of the lost toy. But in her dismay, toy car cannot be found and one day when we got home , I already informed my husband first of the news and alarm him not to get angry with Mica because she was very upset. So when the time Mica told his dad about it, tears were flowing in her eyes and gave her promise to his dad never to bring any thing in school. As a mom, I was happy that my daughter trust me and I go with her secret because it opens up her feelings and disappointments at an early age. I also tried to explain to her the good and the bad side so that later on she will learn it.

MIchael Jackson's 50th birthday has no celeb-packed party

There will be no fireworks or celeb-packed party for Michael Jackson's 50th birthday on Friday. Instead, the star is planning a low-key celebration with his kids. "[I'm] having a wonderful time, just relaxing,"And his agenda was "A little cake with my children and we'll probably watch some cartoons." The reclusive singer has three kids, Prince Michael, 11, Paris, 10, and Prince Michael II, 6. "I feel very wise and sage," he said of turning 50, "but at the same time very young." Plus, the King of Pop assures that he can still perform all his famous dance moves and "more." And despite the controversies of the past years, he's still looking forward to "great things," professionally. "I am writing all the time," he told the morning news show in a phone call from California. "I love composing." But his priorities have changed. "I am also raising my children and enjoying it and teaching them to ride bicycles and how to read," he said. "I love it." The former child star also said his kids are enjoying freedom he never had at their age. "I let them go to the arcade and go to the movies and do things," he added. "I want them to get to do the kind of things I didn't get to do." Spending quality time with children is a magnificient experience. Have a wonderful time with your children and a happy birthday to you.

Life Struggle

Life nowadays seems so hard for us. We were financially down but we tried to look for a solution on how to cope up with our daily expenses plus all the bills to be paid for in a month. Our garden business were not doing good nowadays maybe because of the crisis that arises in our country. Our product was not that important commodity for the moment so we experience slow sales. In spite of all these things that we experience, still we were high in spirit and not losing our hope nor giving it up. We just continue to live in a simple way of life, doing things we used to and most of all clinging and increasing our faith to the Father Almighty. I know He is always there looking at us and knows what is the best for all of us. He will never fail us in times of need. Time will come that we can overcome this problem and the most important thing is that we were in good shape to face all the challenge that may come our way everyday.

Snoring while Sleeping

My husband snores a lot. Sometimes when he hit the bed first, it is the starting point of my agony just listening to the sound of snoring. Sometimes our daughter wakes him up to change his sleeping position so that we can sleep too. But there are times too that we can't endure the noise, we just transfer to another room to have a good night sleep. I do hope my husband snoring will end so we can sleep better.

Snoring, like all other sounds, is caused by vibrations that cause particles in the air to form sound waves. For example, when we speak, our vocal cords vibrate to form our voice. When our stomach growls (borborygmus), our stomach and intestines vibrate as air and food move through them.
While we are asleep, turbulent airflow can cause the tissues of the nose and throat to vibrate and give rise to snoring. Essentially, snoring is a sound resulting from turbulent airflow that causes tissues to vibrate during sleep.
Any person can snore. Studies estimate that 45% of men and 30% of women snore on a regular basis. Frequently, people who do not regularly snore will report snoring after a viral illness, after drinking alcohol, or when taking some medications.
People who snore can have any body type. We frequently think of a large man with a thick neck as a snorer. However, a thin woman with a small neck can snore just as loudly. In general, as people get older and as they gain weight, snoring will worsen.

A spectacular Hanging Monastery in China

It was a spectacular and magnificient wonders of
the world. People who build this Monastery are truly the expert of all the experts compared in the present generation.
Hanging Monastery stands at the foot of Mt. Hengshan, 5 kilometers (3 miles) south of Hunyuan County, and 65 kilometers (40 miles) from downtown Datong City. Since it hangs on the west cliff of Jinxia Gorge more than 50 meters above the ground, it is called Hanging Monastery.Hanging Monastery, built in 491, has survived more than 1400 years. The extant monastery was largely rebuilt and maintained in the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) and Qing Dynasty (1644-1911).How could a building like this withstand the winds and storms of so many years? Hanging Monastery is an architectural wonder. A unique mechanical theory was applied to building the framework. Crossbeams were half-inserted into the rock as the foundation, while the rock in back became its support. Seen from below, Hanging Monastery appears to be a tumble-down castle in the air. Inside, Hanging Monastery provides the same scene as other temples. Construction experts from countries including Britain, Germany, and Italy, come to see the monastery. In their words, Hanging Monastery, which mixes mechanics, aesthetics, and Buddhism, is rare. The monastery and everything it symbolizes embodies a great cultural achievement of Chinese people.The second attraction of Hanging Monastery is that it includes Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism. Inside the monastery, the sculptures of Sakyamuni, Confucius and Laotzu appear together, which is unusual. There are 40 halls and cabinets, which contain about 80 sculptures made of copper, iron, terracotta, and stone. The features are vividly carved.Why build a monastery like this? Location is the first reason; building a monastery on the cliff could shield it from floods. In addition, the mountain peak protects it from rain and snow; and the mountain around it also diminishes damage from long-time sunshine. The second reason is that the builders followed a principle in Taoism: no noises, including those from rooster crowing and dog baying; so from the upper ground, all noises drop away.

MIchelle Obama as the next first lady of the United States

Michelle Obama gave the kind of intimate, emotional endorsement only a wife could give in her headlining speech kicking off the Democratic National Convention on Monday night. She recalled her husband, Barack Obama, as a nervous new dad, before the hype and hoopla of his life on the national stage, and said he has not been changed by politics. "He's the same man who drove me and our new baby daughter home from the hospital 10 years ago this summer," said Michelle, "inching along at a snail's pace, peering anxiously at us in the rearview mirror, feeling the whole weight of her future in his hands ... [He was] determined to give her what he never had, the affirming embrace of a father's love." Her voice caught with emotion and she sniffed several times. At the start of a four-day gathering that will culminate in her husband receiving the Democratic nomination for president, Michelle, 44, remembered the long, hard-fought primary season. "After all that's happened these past 19 months, see, the Barack Obama I know today is the same man I fell in love with 19 years ago." Michelle Obama is an American lawyer and was born and grew up on the South Side of Chicago and graduated from Princeton University and Harvard Law School. Seeing Michelle in the CNN news, I find her strong and full of determination. She was always there to support Mr. Barrack candidacy. Whoever wins, I do hope they will be a good and productive leader in their country. Goodluck!!!

Vin Diesel is now a daddy to a Baby Girl

As an action hero Vin Diesel spends his time chasing bad guys and dodging explosions – but in real life he's just happy changing diapers. Vin Diesel who welcomed his first child, a daughter, in April with girlfriend Paloma Jimenez – says fatherhood has given him a whole new perspective. "Someone once told me that, when you have a child, it opens up parts of your heart that you never knew existed. And it is so true," Diesel said. "It's like you have a child and you think, 'Everything that I've done up until this point is insignificant in comparison to being a father.' It's a beautiful, beautiful thing." And Diesel says he's had plenty of parenting training – both on and off screen. "I had a lot of practice growing up. I was the oldest of the children in my family. I had to do a lot of diaper-changing and lunch-making," he says. "I was taking my little sister to ballet, picking up my brother, sort of being a super-nanny." Diesel then parlayed that experience into 2005's The Pacifier, which had him costarring with tiny tots. "Working with babies on the set for so long, it really started to bring out this desire to have a child," he says. "And it took a couple years after that to find the right person and to hopefully be mature enough to be a great father – which is really all you want to do." Congratulations Vin! Goodluck to your fatherhood.

Caught Re-bagging of NFA Rice in Tacurong City

A joint team from the Tacurong police and representatives of the NFA and Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) raided the Tacurong Agri-World Rice Mill on Wednesday morning and found at least 1,000 sacks of NFA well-milled rice being re-bagged.Tacurong police director Joel Limson, in a interview, said that during the raid, at least 80 of the re-bagged rice were already loaded on a 16-wheeler truck and was about to be delivered to a buyer in Davao City.Limson said 10 workers were at the warehouse when the raiders arrived at around 8:20 a.m. on Wednesday, but rice mill owner Bernardo Tan was not around.The raiding team was led by Tacurong City councilor Excel Pauya and Vicente Gopes, together with an investigator of the NFA in Sultan Kudarat and Carmen Porto from the DTI, also in Sultan Kudarat. The police officiers who joined the raid were led by Inspector Antonio Barroquillo of the Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) team of the Tacurong PNP office and SPO4 Miguel Biadoma of the Special Operations Group. Limson said concerned citizens reported the on-going in Tan’s warehouse situated at Purok New Negros in Barangay San Pablo after days of surveillance. “The laborers told us, when we asked them, the bags would be delivered to a buyer in Davao City whom they refused to identify," said Limson. It is sad to know that in spite of the rice in the Philippines is at crisis, there is still businessman who took the opportunity to gain more income. The needs of the poor could not be served either they were deprived of their privileges to avail the lower cost of rice.

Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson having a good time

Lindsay Lohan laughs it up with pal Samantha Ronson during a Tuesday afternoon stroll through Beverly Hills, where the twosome reportedly stopped for lunch before hitting the stores. It's good that Lindsay Lohan nowadays has no bad publicity coming out unlike before that she was the apple of the eye of the paparrazi. At least Lohan now was happy with her pal being together.
