Vancouver Olympics 2010

vancouver_olympics_2010

Google Search


If you have seen the google search banner/logo as of lately, I can’t help but notice the way banner is shown from its previous. This time though the design is much larger than usual. It shows the opening of the Vancouver winter olympics, starting this day.

Of course, the news about it is really popular in the web. The interesting is that before even the Vancouver Olympic started like having financial concerns and the lack of snow have dampened the glitter of the event(talk about global warming)

Also even before the Olympics have started more than 30 competitors have already been disqualified after testing positive for forbidden substances. (Mayweather is rambling about it against our Manny Pacquiao)

It is still fun to watch though even just I can see and touch an actual snow(if there were any here), that would make a lot fun.

Be dazzled

We often take opportunities for granted, though there are many instances that we get a once in a lifetime opportunity in our lifetime, not even once but many times. The important thing is do we get to chance to get these type of opportunities.. probably not that much. Though it is true that it will not always come our way but there is really no harm in trying. I myself have passed some opportunities in life. We can learn from this and do better the next time.

It doesn’t matter if you are lucky or not. The moment you have these opportunities, you better grab it. I have seen a lot of people who never give up in terms of taking there chances whether be in game, sports, gambling or even raffles. People still pursue to get that opportunity.

For example, opportunities that involved in getting the best item or the best quality, lets just say an auction. If you have seen an actual auction or in television shows. You often wonder why people went there in the first place or what value they can get in an auction. The truth in these auctions is that it is not entirely about money earned or spent. Some of these auctions held this type of selling in order to raise money for charity works at the same time, satisfy the bidder or even get bonuses in there part.

The Bidazzled is one of them. They offer auctions of different items of different kind. The good thing is that you can bid high quality items with the lower price especially if the bid is low. They also funded charity works which is a win win situation for the bidder, not only they acquire valuable items, they also contribute and help the community as well.

Charging

I have been wondering how cars get to at certain speed. I am truly amazed to see fast cars even in the public street. Though the exterior is common to other cars, it seems that their interior or their machines have a secret that everyone does not know. Come to think of it, fast cars are getting popular especially with the movies and shows regarding cars and how cool they are and popular (mostly to girls). I always dreamed of having my set of wheels not only with very cool exterior but also a very good interior machine.

I have seen a mercedes benz with a mercedes supercharger installed in the car. It really is a very cool to have a turbo charger install in the car. Especially with the additional speed and the durability of the car. It is also supported by other car products and will surely give your car the boost power it needs to go in the tough roads. They also offer super chargers that will fit into many brands. The company also offer other products for your car like car parts, accessories and many more. Getting your car pimped is very important and it will give you the assurance that your engine will be safe and most in condition at all times.

Super Mom – Mommy Dionisia

Very funny…lolz

Behind every successful man is a woman.

In the case of Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao, there are several women, one of them being his supermom, Dionisia Pacquiao, now better known not just as Aling Dionisia but for the more sosyal monicker Mommy Dionisia.

A scene-stealer in her own right, Mommy Dionisia never fails to keel over into a dead faint everytime she watches Pacman fight, clutching a rosary and fervently praying to her favorite Sto. Niño to spare her son from the punches.

She became an overnight celebrity in the wake of Pacman’s recent title bout with Ricky Hatton (knocked out in the second round) when she marked her belated “debut” at 60 with a bongga party in their native GenSan, dancing as if there were no tomorrows and changing designer clothes no less than five times. The event (yes, it was an EVENT) was covered “live” by TV, with Pacman, the dutiful and pampering son, watching with gleeful approval from the sidelines, happily leaving the spotlight to his mom. A new Dancing Queen was born.

Two Saturdays ago, Conversations caught Mommy Dionisia at the dressing room of the new GMA Studios being made up for her dancing exhibition on Startalk with her favorite D.I. (Dance Instructor), wearing the red dress that she said was given to her by Lucy Torres when she guested on Lucy’s TV5 show Shall We Dance?.

Mommy Dionisia turned out to be quite a delight even off the dancefloor.

To retain the flavor and the flow, Conversations is retelling the free-flowing exchange as is, in Visayan-Tagalog that is.

Hindi na daw Aling Dionisia ang tawag sa’yo ngayon.

“Hindi na. Mommy Dionisia na. Ang spelling ng pangalan ko, panay ‘i,’ walang ‘e’. D-I-O-N-I-S-I-A. Dionisia.”

Aware ka ba na celebrity ka na ngayon?

“Siempre. Hindi naman mapigilan ‘yan, eh. Ako ang nagbigay buhay sa anak kong si Manny kaya kung gaano siya kasikat ganoon din ako.”

Hindi ka ba naba-bother na maraming nakakakilala sa’yo kapag lumalabas ka?

“Okay lang kapag nasa mall ako at maraming nagha-’Hi!’ sa akin at kumakaway. Mga fans ko sila, eh.”

Talaga bang mahilig na kayong sumayaw from way back?

“Oo naman. Basta type mo ang sayaw, madali kang matuto at maturuan.”

Anu-anong dance ang type mo?

“Tango, Cha-Cha, Boogie at Swing. Ang unang tinuro sa akin ng mga D.I. ay Swing.”

Linawin natin, Mommy Dionisia, ha. Nanliligaw daw ba sa’yo ang D.I. mo?

“A, hindi totoo. ‘Yung humahawak sa akin ngayon, bagong D.I. ko. ‘Yung dati, nag-abroad daw. Pinalitan ko dahil hindi niya kaya ang mga lifting. Maliit lang kasi siya, eh.”

Bakit, mabigat ka ba?

“Hindi. Ang weight ko 45 kilos lang. Matagal kami hindi nakasayaw. Sabi niya, ‘Mommy, bumigat ka’.”

What’s your height ba?

“Ay, nakalimutan ko. Nandoon sa cedula ko.”

Paano mo mini-maintain ang figure mo?

“Naga-gym ako sa GenSan, doon sa mall.”

Ano pang ibang workout mo? Hindi ba kayo nagba-boxing ni Manny?

“Hindi. Dancing lang talaga ang exercise ko. Tinuruan ko nga si Manny pero hindi siya marunong. Malambot man ang katawan niya. Sa bahay, naga-workout din ako habang nanonood ng aerobic na video. Anim na posisyon ‘yon. Ginagaya ko.”

At ano naman ang diet mo?

“Ang pagkain ko, control; hindi sobra. Sa breakfast, normal lang. Hindi man ako magkain ng chichiria kasi bawal. Ang favorite food ko? Seafood.”

Kumusta naman ang love life mo?

“Okay naman. Love life ko ang mga apo ko.”

Okay ba kayo ng “ex” mo, ‘yung father ni Manny?

“Okay naman kami. Wala naman akong ano sa kanya. Puwede ba huwag na natin pag-usapan ‘yon? Sixteen years na akong walang asawa. Happy na ako magtingin sa mga apo ko. Kumpleto na ako.”

A, okay. Sa security mo naman. Balita ko marami ka raw bodyguard dahil may mga nagha-harrass sa’yo.

“Kasi maraming intriga. Sobra! Sabi nila nagsha-shopping ako ng P1 million nga pera. Sobra naman na balita!”

Peso o dollar?

“Peso. Bago ako nagpunta sa US, nagbili ako ng skinny jeans nga itim. One thousand pesos lang ‘yon. At saka mga blouse. Hindi naman mahal. Sabi ko, itigil na ang mga ganyang balita dahil nasisira ang pagkatao ko. Pagkatapos, may threat ako na kikidnapin. Matagal na akong may bodyguard. Dati dalawa. Ngayong may threat ako, apat na.”

Balita ko tatlo daw ang cell phone n’yo.

“A, ang CP ko? Oo, tatlo. Iba-iba ang number. Dala ko palagi lahat. Isa Globe, isa Smart at isa TM.”

Noong 60th “debut” mo, kung ilang beses ka nagpalit ng gown.

“Lima ang damit ko. Dalawang gown at tatlo ang pang-dancing. Para daw ako nag-debut na 18 years old. ‘Yung sa akin, debut na 60! Hahahaha!”

A, so hindi ka nakapag-debut noong 18 years old ka?

“Hindi, eh.”

Naaalala mo ba kung saan ka nandoon noong nag-18 years old ka?

“Nakalimutan ko na. May asawa na ako noon. Nang nag-asawa ako, 16 lang ako. Nang 17 ako, nanganak na ako, ‘yung panganay kong anak na namatay. Apat ang buhay kong anak — si Sidra, si Manny, si Bobby at si Ruel, ‘yung barangay captain.”

Spoiled na spoiled ka ni Manny, ano?

“Hindi naman. Nang nakita niya ‘yung gown ko, nagulat siya. Sabi niya, ‘Mang, ‘yan ba ang isuot mo sa birthday mo?’ Sabi ko, ‘Oo.’ Sabi niya, ‘Ang ganda!’ Binigyan niya ako ng pera, malaki-laki.”

Ganoon? Magkano?

“Sobra 25 dollars.”

Ang liit!

“Twenty-five thousand dollars ‘yon. Sabi niya, ‘Kayo na ang magbili ng gusto mo, ‘Mang’.”

Naubos mo ‘yon sa shopping? Almost one million pesos ‘yon.

“Bumili ako ng mga damit, mga bag.”

Ilan na ba ang mga bag mo ngayon?

“Marami na. May mga Louis Vuitton.”

Mga gown ilan?

“Marami na rin. Dalawa galing sa US. ‘Yung iba dito lang sa Pilipinas pinagawa.”

Sa dami na rin daw ng shoes mo, talo mo na daw si Imelda.

“A, hindi naman! Simple naman ako na pagka-nanay.”

Uy, magmo-model ka daw kay Dr. Vicki Belo.

“Hindi ako. ‘Yung manugang kong si Jinkee.”

Hindi mo pa ba kailangan magpa-lipo?

“Hindi pa. Marunong naman ako mag-alaga sa katawan ko. Naga-exercise ako; naga-gym ako.”

Pero nag-i-spa ka na siempre.

“Oo naman. Madalas. Sa GenSan.”

May commercial ka na daw ba?

“Mayroon. Pero hindi pa naga-labas. Sa July 19, ilalabas na kaya mag-iikot kami sa lahat ng mga estasyon sa radyo at TV.”

Lumalabas ka sa TV at ngayon sa commercial. Sa pelikula ba lalabas ka na rin?

“Ayoko, baka mapagod ako. Okay lang sa commercial, hindi matagal.”

Sa sitcom ayaw mo?

“Ayaw ko rin.”

Bagay daw kayo magkasama ni Annabelle sa pelikula.

“Si Annabelle Rama? ‘Yung sa My Monster Mom? Napanood ko ‘yon. Uy, kilala ko si Annabelle Rama. Nanonood ‘yon ng boksing ni Manny sa Las Vegas.”

Uy, saan pala ‘yung Rolex na birthday gift sa’yo ni Manny? Bakit hindi mo suot?

“A, tinago ko. Muntik kasi natanggal kanina n’ung naga-praktis kami ng dancing. Baka malaglag uli, masira. Sayang. Mahal pa naman. 300,000 ‘yan.”

Dollars?

“Hindi. Pesos.”

‘Yung car na binigay sa’yo ni Manny, ginagamit mo ba?

“Oo naman.”

Kumusta ‘yung house?

“Si Manny ang nagpagawa n’un. May darating pa; ipapagawa din ni Manny. Doon sa GenSan. Malaki. ‘Yung first na bahay namin, medyo maliit. Two hundred square meters lang.”

Ilang square meters ‘yung tatayuan ng bagong bahay?

“Six hundred square meters.”

Kayo ba ni Jinkee okay na? May gap daw kayo noon?

“Anong gap?”

‘Yung hindi okay sa isa’t-isa.

“A, wala. Okay kami. Noong bago kasi silang kasal ni Manny, mahiyain siya. Ako, nanay, marunong magdala ng mga anak; marunong ako magdala sa kay Jinkee. Hindi na siya mahiyain ngayon. Si Jinkee nga ang nag-asikaso sa birthday ko; sila-sila.”

Sa mga pagbabago sa buhay mo, ano ang pinaka-gusto mo?

“Siempre, nagustuhan ko ang pagda-dance ko, lalo na mga fans ko. Maraming naga-hanga sa akin.”

Mayroon ka bang Fans Day?

“Wala pa. Pero proud sila sa akin. Alam ko dahil marami ang naga-greet sa akin kapag nasa mall ako.”

Kung gagawing pelikula ang buhay mo, sino ang gusto mong gumanap ng Mommy Dionisia?

“Ang gusto ni Manny, ako mismo.”

Mayroon na kayo lahat. Ano pa ba ang mahihiling mo?

“Ang hinihiling ko lang sa Panginoon, sana bigyan ako ng mahaba pang buhay para makasama ko pa ang pamilya ko, mga friends ko, mga fans ko.”

Ano ba ang tunay na Mommy Dionisia? Paki-describe nga po.

“Mabait ako. Simpleng tao lang ako. Magaling magbigay ng payo sa mga anak. Magaling magpalaki sa mga anak. ‘Yan ako.”

Michael Jackson and A(H1N1) Virus

What do this two names have in common?, (No, Michael Jackson didn’t die of h1n1 virus). They are one(two) of the most popular names/terms in the world today. Unfortunately, it is also a cause of grief for everyone (fans or not fans alike). This post is a tribute of the late “King of Pop”.

Since the news spread, every time I passed by a store or a watch a show in television. Almost all send a message of tribute to Michael Jackson , I mean who can blame them, He is one or probably the most influential person in the world. I often hear his song played in houses, radios and the internet . I even saw a flash game in tribute to him. Most searches around the world wide web and the search engines type only his name as of today.

Even downloads of his songs over the net are hit as though it is a new album or composed song is released. yeah, it was sudden. I admit I may not be a fanatic fan of Michael Jackson but just asking if you know that person, only a counted individuals doesn’t know him (unless they have no radio ,television and live on caves).

This event will just be a reminder that people will remember only good things(legacy) for a person even if he/she has not been on a really right track(direction) of his/her life till his time had come.

Michael Jackson is Dead

At age 50, the “King of Pop” Michael Jackson died at a hospital in UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles.

The circumstances of Jackson’s death were not immediately clear. Jackson was not breathing when Los Angeles Fire Department paramedics responded to a call at his Los Angeles home about 12:30 p.m.,

So many people wanted to verify the early reports of Jackson’s death that the computers running Google’s news section interpreted the fusillade of “Michael Jackson” requests as an automated attack for about half an hour Thursday evening.

Comeback had been planned
Jackson was preparing for what was to be his greatest comeback: He was scheduled for an unprecedented 50 shows at a London arena, with the first set for July 13. He was in rehearsals in Los Angeles for the concert, an extravaganza that was to capture the classic Jackson magic: showstopping dance moves, elaborate staging and throbbing dance beats.

Hundreds of people gathered outside the hospital as word of his death spread. The emergency entrance at the UCLA Medical Center, which is near Jackson’s rented home, was roped off with police tape.

“Ladies and gentlemen, Michael Jackson has just died,” a woman boarding a Manhattan bus called out shortly after the news was announced. Immediately many riders reached for their cell phones.

Diesel Parts Pros

Getting stuck in the street during rush hours is one of the most annoying things that could happen anytime, not to mention the heavy traffic and the hot heads for everyone around, when going to work , school, or other important matters. I just got caught up in a traffic jam this morning, knowing the cause was engine trouble of an another car. It really happens particularly in the busy streets where the temperature is hot especially in summer.

In a taxi cab, it could get very warm and discomforting. There diesel parts that offers a solution to most of auto problems. For example the discount compressor, it is your source for automotive ac compressor and much more. We offer the lowest price on a/c compressor, condenser, drier, air conditioning compressor and more. The auto air conditioning compressor is an important part of the car and we have you covered.

Getting to know your vehicle is important because it you can determine if ever there is an engine trouble and know which part need repairs. You cannot always rely on someone to check up with your car over and over again, also to avoid extra cost in repairs. It is really tough purchasing a new vehicle in this time of global economic crisis. You might as well do the works in your vehicle rather that paying huge amount of bucks for extra service.

It is advisable to do a maintenance check of you cars and regular check up to make sure it will not get stuck in the streets and promote safety to yourself as well as public.
