The Search Is Over

Posted by AJ Migriño On October - 29 - 2009 2 COMMENTS

DSCI1530They say that we were born in this world paired with someone to fill the empty spaces in us. That we are all like a key that only fits to one door, like a casserole only fit to one lid and like a . That we should search for the right pair of shoes to will fit on our feet.

I decided to look for the right person who will complete the missing piece of me. A person who can understand my thoughts and feelings, and who could be patient in my mood swings. And the one who could love me just as I am.

My friends told me to try the night life, so I tried it. Hang-out every Saturday night, bar hopping, party with different girls that comes from different walks of life. Make love to every girl that I have met. Just enjoy the night until the break of dawn.

When I felt tired of it, I tried to do the conventional way. I asked my best friend to set up with me a date and introduced to me to her classmates, friends, and even to her neighbors.

I had many relationships but it all failed because of incompatibility. Some of those relationships made me strong and some almost ruined my whole life. I even try to commit suicide because of depression and misery.

Years quickly passed and I am still lost in search of true love and true happiness. I am sick and tired of meeting and dating girls. I am tired of committing to someone who only uses me as their past time. I am tired of entrusting my heart to someone who in the first place doesn’t understand me.

Suddenly I realized that there is one person who is with me in my search for happiness and affection. She is with me through my ups and downs. She witnessed all the pain and sorrow that I suffered because of loving unconditionally. She patiently waits for me.

Then, I understand that the love that I am longing and searching over these years is just around me and

Now, I know that my search for true love and happiness is over.

Beware of Hayden’s Virus!

Posted by Tom Nava On October - 29 - 2009 41 COMMENTS

hayden1_170756318l1Hackers and computer virus bard have exploited the new script-injection virus soft wares after Hayden Kho’s controversial sex videos that now banging on the Internet

Trend Micro, an antivirus firm, has identified computer Trojans TROJ_DLOAD.TID and its payload, TROJ_COGNAC.J, hidden in at least two US government websites, first at the website of the San Bernardino County (http://www.sbcounty.gov/) and second was exposed in a state-wide information portal of Washington DC, the Ask George website.

The mode of operation was to trick people by clicking a link that supposed to reveal nude photos and sex video of Filipino actress Katrina Halili who was first involved in the controversial sex videos with Hayden Kho.

The injected script contained the strings ““katrina+halili+sexy+pic” and by visiting the compromised webpage, users are redirected to a malicious website that asked them to download a video codec to be able to watch the video.
This supposedly video codec is actually a Trojan downloader. As of Trend blog redeploying the compromised website is already cleaned of the infection.

It was a stroll why computer virus authors used the controversial scandal astounding the Philippines to trick foreign people to deliver their malware.

So BEWARE:maybe the videos you are downloading now don’t contain Katrina’s sexy image, but the malicious Hayden-inspired Trojan virus.

They observe a huge number of moviegoers to come in the theaters with the volume added by online tickets buyers will surpass Tuesday’s earnings.

At first, there are rumors circulating about the movie like Michael Jackson’s doubles but was denied by Sony Entertainment proving that there’s no other performer there nor impersonators but the real Michael Jackson himself.

Reviews of the film have been largely positive, and fans are mostly impressed, even Rottentomatoes.com rated the movie “80 percent fresh”.

The film features Jackson singing and dancing to some of his biggest hits, including “Beat It,” “Black or White”, “Man in the Mirror”, and “Thriller” proving himself the real King Of Pop despite of his age.

Pagasa to raise storm signals as “Santi” comes closer

Posted by Ryan Reyes On October - 29 - 2009 6 COMMENTS

aThe expected arrival of Typhoon Santi (international codename: Mirinae) moved Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) to raise storm warnings over more provinces in Central and Southern Luzon, state-run weather bureau said Thursday.

Signal No. 2 was given to Polillo Island while the provinces of Aurora, Bulacan, Camarines Norte, Camarines Sur, Ifugao, Isabela, Nueva Ecija, Nueva Vizcaya, Quezon, Quirino, and Rizal are under Signal No. 1, according to the recent bulletin by the Pagasa.

The typhoon was last seen 890 kilometers east of Casiguran, Aurora, with wind speeds of up to 150 kph near the center and gusts of up to 185 kilometers per hour and is forecasted to move westwards to Central Luzon at 24 kph.

Pagasa directed inhabitants in mountain slopes and low-lying areas with storm signals to observe precautions against possible flashfloods and landslides while those living in coastal areas are warned of potential storm surges and big waves the storm will bring.

The storm will be a great burden since Luzon is still trying to recover from two destructive storms Ondoy (international codename: Ketsana) and Pepeng (international codename: Parma) that claimed more than 1,000 lives and destroyed millions of property and also it is the time where people will visit their dead this All Saints’ Day.

Weather bureau spokesman Nathaniel Cruz warned that “Metro Manila will be affected by strong winds and rains associated with the crossing of the typhoon in central Luzon.”
By Friday morning, Santi is forecast to be 440 km East of Casiguran, Aurora by Friday Morning and over the vicinity of Casiguran, Aurora or 210 km northeast of Manila by Saturday morning.

The government is currently working for the preparation for the upcoming storm while the military and other rescue units were heightened alert.

Fruits of Prayers

Posted by Ryan Reyes On October - 29 - 2009 ADD COMMENTS

IMG1079A“I sought the LORD, and He heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.” – Psalms34:4

A week earlier, I started a series of prayer to the Lord asking Him to help me and my classmates about our grades. I started to feel nervous a night before the releasing of grades but I put in mind a verse from Matthew 6:34. “Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.”

The day has come and I find myself holding my grade slip. I cannot believe what I have seen, God answered my prayers! And it is way more than what I wished for!

“He who calls you is faithful, who also will do it.” – 1 Thessalonians 5:24

But most of my classmates did not do it well. Do you feel God isn’t answering your prayers? Are you tempted to doubt His goodness? We may say why we must suffer disappointment, sorrow and failure? What have we done that God should send us trials?

“For My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways My ways,” says the LORD. – Isaiah55:8

Prayers are nothing without the faith and the commitment. For faith is the seed you’ll plant and commitment is the sickle you use to harvest. Like a good farmer with a bountiful harvest, we must all be productive to accomplish our goals.

”But Jesus looked at them and said to them, “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.” Matthew 19:26

When we call on God, we must believe that He will help us but in His perfect time and in His perfect way.

“So I say to you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.” – Luke 11:9-10

We are so grateful that our Almighty Creator of this vast universe who hears all prayers
is close to all. He listens attentively for our plea, our wail, and our prayers. True thankfulness is more than being grateful for what we possess.

“Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.” – 1 John 5:14

Do your best and leave the rest.

“And do not seek what you should eat or what you should drink, nor have an anxious mind. For all these things the nations of the world seek after, and your Father knows that you need these things. But seek the kingdom of God, and all these things shall be added to you.” – Luke12:29-31

Microsoft Releases Window 7

Posted by Tom Nava On October - 28 - 2009 7 COMMENTS

window77Microsoft Company releases on market the newest version of Microsoft Windows operating systems for use on personal computers, the Windows 7.

Unlike its predecessor, Vista, which introduced a large number of new features, Windows 7 is intended to be a more focused, incremental upgrade to the Windows line, with the target of being fully well-suited with applications and hardware with which Windows Vista is already compatible. In many cases, it can boot up more quickly and go in and out of sleep in a matter of seconds. Consumers will also notice they get systems that are a lot less cluttered, in some cases with nothing more than a recycle bin on their desktop when they first boot their PC.

Windows 7 includes a number of new features, such as advances in touch and handwriting recognition, support for virtual hard disks, improved performance on multi-core processors, improved boot performance, Direct Access, and kernel improvements. Windows 7 adds support for systems using multiple heterogeneous graphics cards from different vendors (Heterogeneous Multi-adapter), a new version of Windows Media Center, a Gadget for Windows Media Center, improved media features, the XPS Essentials Pack and Windows PowerShell being included, and a redesigned Calculator with multiline capabilities including Programmer and Statistics modes along with unit conversion. Windows Security Center has been renamed to Windows Action Center (Windows Health Center and Windows Solution Center in earlier builds), which encompasses both security and maintenance of the computer .Many new items have been added to the Control Panel, including ClearType Text Tuner, Display Color Calibration Wizard, Gadgets, Recovery, Troubleshooting, Workspaces Center, Location and Other Sensors, Credential Manager, Biometric Devices, System Icons, and Display.

Presentations given by Microsoft in 2008 focused on multi-touch support, a redesigned Windows Shell with a new taskbar, referred to as the Superbar, a home networking system called HomeGroup, and performance improvements. Some applications that have been included with prior releases of Microsoft Windows, including Windows Calendar, Windows Mail, Windows Movie Maker, and Windows Photo Gallery, are not included in Windows 7, some are instead offered separately as part of the free Windows Live Essentials suite.

Microsoft still has room for improvement; PC makers said that Microsoft is trying to transform itself from a nearly “obsolete” engineering-driven approach that adds features simply because they are possible to one that focuses on what customers actually want.
