Luneta Park Manila

Every Filipino I know have gotten to the infamous Luneta Park in Manila. Back in the day, it has been a dream of every child. Though more often than not, it is every mother's nightmare hoping their kids wouldn't be lost in the park. I remember though one time, my sister almost got lost in that same Park, fortunately, my father is so attentive that he is always keeping an eye for all of us. Anyways, let's go back to what we are talking about here. There is more to see in the Luneta Park. It has been rehabilitated lately and the City government is doing a pretty good job making the place a great scenery to look at.

Located along Roxas Boulevard, Manila, adjacent to the old walled city of Intramuros, it is one of the largest urban parks in Asia.

Help Filipino Harlene Azuela Find Her Dream Man

It’s not everyday that we come across with someone we feel we wanted to spend the rest of our lives with. Though more often than not, we tend to let the moment define us by not doing anything about it. One defining moment, a Filipino girl, Harlene Azuela spotted her handsome dream guy on the MRT in Singapore. She secretly took a short video of the man who she thinks as the man of her dreams, her knight and shining armor. Guess what, she posted that video courageously, proclaiming her feelings for him. This video has steadily gone viral instantly, and has been reshared more than a couple of thousand times on Facebook alone as of this writing. Harlene Azuela claims on her video: "Have you ever had that moment when someone catches your eye, but you didn't do anything about it?"

The Philippine Arena Owned by Iglesia Ni Cristo

One Sunday afternoon, my friends and I went to Bagac, Bataan. As we pass by the Bulacan area, we saw a gigantic construction undergoing on the right side of the highway. Questions immediately thrown by and we’re really anxious to know what that is. I rush to get a laptop to try to research about that gigantic construction. We have found out that it is The Philippine Arena owned by The Iglesia Ni Cristo. According to Wiki, The Philippine Arena is a multi-purpose indoor arena being constructed at Ciudad de Victoria, a 75-hectare tourism enterprise zone in Bocaue and Santa Maria, Bulacan, Philippines. With a capacity of up to 50,000, it will be the largest indoor domed-arena in the Philippines. It is the centerpiece of the many centennial projects of the Iglesia Ni Cristo (INC) for their grand celebration on July 27, 2014. The legal owner of the arena is the INC's educational institution, New Era University. Motivated from Narra tree, the mother tree of the Philippines and the

Comet ISON Might be Seen in the Philippines

I was always fascinated by what’s on our solar system. May it be asteroids, heavenly planets, stars or anything that made up our universe is quite a spectacle for me! Once in a while, I try to look up in the sky hoping to see something spectacular like an eclipse or a meteor shower. We may be in good luck just before the 2013 will end, a comet will probably appear right before our very eyes! Introducing the Comet ISON. Comet ISON, also known as C/2012 S1 or Comet Nevski–Novichonok, is a sungrazing comet discovered by Vitali Nevski and Artyom Novichonok on 21 September 2012.

Manny Pacquiao Appeal on BIR Php 2 Billion Tax Case

Manny Pacquiao won his last fight just recently against Brandon BamBam Rios, and he dedicated this fight for the victims of typhoon Yolanda/Haiyan. As he came back here in the Philippines, he immediately do something about helping the typhoon victims. To his dismay, the BIR has frozen all his bank accounts. He ask his friends for monetary help just to make his promise on helping the Yolanda victims. Manny Pacquiao and his wife, Vice Gov. Jinkee, have appealed the tax fraud case filed by the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) against them for alleged tax deficiencies in 2008 and 2009 amounting to P2.2 billion. Last Thursday, November 21, through his lawyers, Pacquiao filed a petition against BIR commissioner Kim Henares before the Court of Tax Appeals in Quezon City. In the petition, Pacquiao said he wants to stop the BIR from collecting the P2.2 billion in supposed tax deficiencies. Pacquiao called on the Court of Tax Appeals to declare the BIR’s formal letter or demand

Manny Pacquiao Is Not A Declining Fighter

For us Filipinos, we always thought that we know Manny Pacquiao inside and out. We’re all an expert on our own fields, but more often than not, we tend to judge people according to our own beliefs. Have we asked ourselves, do we really know the man? Or Manny still have something hidden for us to see on his next fights? Manny Pacquiao is hardly a trash talker or the type to make bold, outrageous predictions. Everytime he stand in the ring even during the weigh-in and press cons, he’s always on a good mood and a smile never leaves his face. With many predicting his demise, however, an apparently insulted Pacquiao boldly predicts a knockout of Brandon Rios. We can never blame them, he suffered two consecutive losses, one with a really devastating result. Coach Freddie Roach mentioned that he felt Pacquiao would stop Rios on Saturday (Sunday morning Macau time) in the sixth round of their 12-round welterweight bout at CotaiArena during an interview while Manny Pacquiao is sitting next

HAARP Might Have Caused All These Disasters

Typhoon Haiyan might be the strongest typhoon ever hit the world. With over 4,000 people killed in the Philippines alone, you will wonder how in the world a typhoon gets stronger every year! I came across one article that might give a more logical explanation on why is this happening. This might not just an effect of global warming or climate change. The worst, we literally might cause this ourselves. Introducing HAARP! HAARP (High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program) is a little-known, yet critically important U.S. military defense program which has generated quite a bit of controversy over the years in certain circles. Some respected researchers allege that secret electromagnetic warfare capabilities of HAARP are designed to forward the US military’s stated goal of achieving full-spectrum dominance by the year 2020, but of course, HAARP officials are denying this. Others go so far as to claim that HAARP can and has been used for weather modification, to cause earthqua

Deuterium Will Make The Philippines The Richest Country

The author of this article wanted to remain anonymous for a lot of security reasons. This article was written a few years ago. I will share this to you as it is. This would probably explain as to why the giant China kept on bullying us regarding territorial disputes. If the Philippine government can’t handle a job of this magnitude, we might be needing help from our country of alliance. If you’re interested enough, just read on. Be careful though, this might give you some worries! We don't know but just maybe, the MALAMPAYA is operating in lieu with this... HYDROGEN from Water was predicted by Jules Verne in 1874 to be the fuel of the future. During World War II, Germany used V-2 Rocket Bombs propelled by HYDROGEN. Now, Dr. Jacob Bigeleisen discovered that at room temperature or under atmospheric condition, DEUTERIUM ATOMS are electrolyzed naturally out of water in the form of HYDROGEN gas. This natural phenomenal process needs no expensive electric power consuming electrolysi

The Latest Version of the Game Medal of Honor, Plot Location: Basilan, Philippines

Yes right you have read it correctly, the latest version of the game Medal of Honor is concentrated on rescuing hostages from the Abu Sayyaf group based on Basilan, Philippines. According to Wiki by definition,  Abu Sayyaf (Arabic: جماعة أبو سياف‎; Jamāʿah Abū Sayyāf, ASG, Filipino: Grupong Abu Sayyaf) also known as al-Harakat al-Islamiyya is one of several military Islamist separatist groups based in and around the southern Philippines, in Bangsamoro (Jolo and Basilan), where for almost 30 years various Muslim groups have been engaged in an insurgency for an independent province in the country.

Tarsier, The Tiny Philippine Primate Threatened by Tourism

A very peculiar small animal you'll find indigenous in the Philippines is the Philippine tarsier, or scientifically known as Tarsius syrichta. In fact it is one of the smallest known primates, no larger than an adult men's hand. It lives on a diet of insects and mostly active at night. Folk traditions sometimes has it that tarsiers eat charcoal, but actually they retrieve the insects from (sometimes burned) wood. It can be found in the islands of Samar, Leyte, Bohol, and Mindanao. In their few numbers left, the tarsier might not survive if no action is taken. Although it is a protected species, and the practice of catching them and then selling them as stuffed tarsiers to tourists has stopped, the species is still threatened by the destruction of his natural forest habitat. Many years of both legal and illegal logging and slash-and-burn agriculture have greatly reduced these forests, and reduced the tarsier population to a dangerously small size. The Philippine tarsier can s
