Use Your Five Senses. Forget About The Card esp. When You Are Not A Fortune Teller.

IT's A BABY BOY! Finally the first offspring was born at 4:24 pm on July 22, 2013 from the royal union of Duchess of Cambridge Kate and Duke of Cambridge William. Congratulations Kate & William. No pictures being published yet at this point in time.

So what else is the big news today?

Oh let me tell you about the SONA 2013 of Pres. Benigno Aquino III. My goodness! It was a long speech. Is there a tele-prompter in front of him or he is another version of the former Pres. Ferdinand Marcos who doesn't look at his copy for speaking engagement?

The speech is longer than the Nile River. I almost fell asleep. I don't know if I have to discuss the whole "speech" or let me just have them in gist? Or summary.

The speech is about his accomplishments during his period of governance. What changed, what has been improved, developed and what's really the problem. In his speech he mentioned too much, he mentioned the many accomplishments of Pres. Marcos! Then "nasamid sya." Hurray! Wow! Thank God! His accomplishments stated what the late Pres. Marcos has done in the past.

The unfinished business is yet to come.

Truth is Philippines always have a problem. First and foremost the problem is the climate. Typhoons, flood, over-population, squatters, traffic, dilapidated roads and highways. graft and corruption, crimes, education, scarcity in food? (no there is no scarcity in food if you have the right amount of money), unemployment, worker's wages and benefits, high tuition fees in university, water is rationed unfairly, high price of gas and electricity, brown-outs, hot weather, too many bugs, garbage, dirty or polluted river and seas, etc, etc. They are the problems in Philippines that I've  known of because I have eyes to see and nose that can smell. I have all the five senses that can SEE all what is wrong. I have the five senses to SEE and know what the problems are but some people are too blind to see them.

Hopefully God will visit that country ...hopefully one of these days.

Amazing Race: Canada

Are you watching Amazing Race:Canada? This time the ARC's host is not Phil Keoughan but a Canadian actor who has resemblance with Virgin Airlines founder and owner. He's also a look-alike of Chuck Norris (younger version) I forgot his name. You can google it for your perusal. Uhm should not say something like that because the contestants major airline of choice is Jazz or Air Canada. lol. I watched the premiere episode which started in Niagara Falls in Ontario and from there the contestants have to get their first clue card at the Butterfly Conservatory. From Ontario they all have to fly to Kelowna, BC. where they have to follow the clue cards list of tasks. They have to undergo many crucial tasks such as scuba diving down the "ogopogo site to get their first clue. The pit stop is at the winery which is adjacent to the "extinct volcano." Is that the scenery chosen for the movie of Brendan Fraser? (Journey To The Center of the Earth). I could be wrong. The twins were eliminated in this leg of the race. I first thought they were police women and they were the first to be booted off? Weird! It was the team Kristen and Darren who won this first episode of Amazing Race: Canada. In this race they use Flash Interac card. One team was shown with only $40.00 worth of budget. What? That's crazy! Other contestants received such amount? They didn't show. The prize for the winner of this ARC receives QUARTER of a MILLION DOLLARS ONLY not ONE MILLION DOLLARS! Eh?!!!!!!!!! For all the death defying stunts?

Anyway, it's a mind boggling race okay? Worthy of a "script for movies."

The second episode was last night. The whole cast were to find their way to British Columbia in Vancouver City. They had the chance to ride the Skytrain. Then to the Richmond Speed Skating rink from there they have to speedskate. In  Chinatown they have to drink tea and then have to remember the Chinese character printed on their tea's saucer and have to print them on a piece of bond paper and have to show it to the Chinese lady for approval. If they made a mistake of printing the original Chinese characters then the lady have to torn the paper into pieces. Some have easy way out and others have to do it again and again until they can manage to write it nicely and correctly. Other contestants have to dance the dragon dance and let the dragon ate the green leafy lettuce hanging up from the pole.. Fun for Kristen and Darren. From the top of the dockyard tower and down below where containers are stocked for inspection in downtown main Vancouver they have to use binocular to search for the Pit stop which is located at the Convention center. On top of that building they must have to be there first and the winner for this leg of the race is > Holly and Brett.

Now the question is why it's no longer Phil Keoughan to do the race hosting? Phil is American and it's a Canadian race this time so that's probably the case or the reason why. If you have seen the last episode of the Amazing Race Canada, the very first leg of 2013, months ago...the two brothers who won the race which they were ushered to Washington DC to meet the Pres. of the United States > Mr. Obama. Which turned out it was sort of a prank? They met Mr. Obama in the form of a "card board" right there at the shopping mall where camera lens await them to be photographed. The last pit of that leg of the race was in Vernon. It was at the old haunted house of Dolly Madison and Madison family. Hmm...cracking cracking codes? Where's my nutcrackers....Hu! hu! hu!

RIP Replays!

OMG! What's happening with television shows such as Victorious and BTR? Masterchef replays! (twice already for them) .Most of their shows are replays!? Unlike iCarly with new episodes everyday. How difficult to make a 30 minute television show? Hard? lol. I couldn't believe that with the present high technology and highly technological gadgets it would be hard to make a thirty minute TV show. It should be just random right?

OIC some people run out of idea. That could be it or they cannot have "all those stars" connected in one allocated time and location. Probably everyone's busy.

Brain drain? Whatever!

Watched old movies lately such as: EVE OF DESTRUCTION, TERMINATOR: Salvation, etc.

Watched DOG WITH A BLOG, new episode this time. That family show is incredibly just A-OK. I mean the family members cooperate with one another there is that harmonious relationship with one another and the DOG is superbly a talking dog (unless of course if the dog gets moody) so it's an added plus or attraction to the show. It's a family show so there's no bad reviews nor any negativity in that show. For General patronage! Last night episode has a negative side which is according to the script? Somebody has flare ups.  A show that is all goody-goody is a boring show for so many television viewers. There should be a change once in a while. Otherwise viewers will find some other things to do.  + and - side of story is a good story. Then solution and resolution to the conflict is necessary after all the father of that family show is a practising psychologist.

In a given story or occupation, the only person that never change its direction is a PILOT. To take his passengers safe aboard the airplane to the right DESTINATION on time, right on schedule from airport to another airport. Nothing else.

SOLAR FLARES? It's more than common at summer time and when the mercury rises you wont believe who will be a victim of  flare ups.

Parliamentary

How many times the Conservative Party of the Prime Minister Stephen Harper has changed and re-shuffled in the past. So many times already. The first time was when the Minister of Defence Peter Mckay's vision was very sharp like  an eagle.

Why all the re-shuffle? Few ministers have resigned or retired? Many got tired of the slow-moving phase that's happening within the government?

So many red tape?

What could be?

To better familiarize each member of the Cabinet to appreciate, demonstrate and make use of their skills to the tasks at hand.

What each member of the Cabinet will bring in to unite, strengthen and make use of the funds, raise more funds, make themselves fully utilized their God-given talents and potentials so that they can uplift the political and economic ability and capability of good government. How they can better serve the country and its people.

Give them the key questions of  WHY they have to serve the country and the people of Canada? They should know the answer even before they are officially elected, appointed and well every educated individuals whether they used to serve the government knew what their tasks are the more they have to know their power and responsibility once they have that GO signal to conduct business in the name of  the POWERS that be whom they take allegiance with.

CANADA is a parliamentary government. Therefore the Head of State is none other than Her Majesty, QUEEN ELIZABETH II. Government officials abide by the rules of conduct and secrecy under the Queen of England.

So be it.

In the Name Of the Father, The Son and the Holy Spirit  +

Amen.

Where The Home Is?

What's really NEW in the Blogworld? There are new bloggers and there are old bloggers still blogging up to now how busy they are. Blogging is something very irresistible. The stiff tough competition is really a nuisance. It is very annoying sometimes, eh? Most of the time is the right word.

When somebody stop from blogging, another up and coming blogger will fill the void. That's the truth about it. You wont believe that there are too many bloggers now in the Philippines and according to the news they are earning from as low as P30,000! Really? Are you kidding me? P30,000 per month? That's almost $731.00/month. WOW!

I couldn't believe it myself. I should go back to Philippines and do my blogging there.

But hey, what kind of "items or issues" these people are blogging?

Are they really blogging? Or they are doing some kind of _____________! Ah never mind, we wont be able to figure that out. It's their problem not mine.

I knew of a professional blogger, writer and an author of books and he never get paid nor earned $731 in one month. So many of these blogwriters who are not paid no matter how high their skills are. That's how professionals here!? WTF! WTH!  Their work is being ignored and neglected. They are well educated. They are superbly well- endowed when it comes to knowledge. They are highly intelligent. But why they don't earn that amount of money and most of them don't earn anything?

HONESTY doesn't pay anything and you wont be paid for being honest? There is something wrong with the law nowadays. There is something with the kind of education and how knowledge is being exploited.

For one thing and one thing only, when you are in Canada and you are just selling a pitcher of lemonade outside your yard you are to get a license. You can't just install a cart outside and sell palamig, fish balls, mangoes, or barbecue. There is nothing like that here. You want to have a store at the front of your house? In residential area? Crazy! That's not allowed here. There are so many DON'TS! Everything should and have a license. You are seen gathering fresh oysters at the beach? Oh oh...damned if you know damned if you don't if you don't have license you'll be given a penalty. You'll be punished for gathering oysters without a license.

But that's  only oysters in a public beach. Right! But all living things here in Canada have their own respective rights. You killed a grizzly bear? You'll be put to jail and pay a bail. Even if the bear is about to kill you...

You can't go hunting when it's not hunting season. You can't go fishing and catch fish without a license. All parking space have parking fees even in parks.

If all the Canadians stayed most of the time in their HOMES then it's the merrier. It's the happiest of all for those whose TV exceeds to more than 50 inches width flat screen TV. Other wise get out and pay for your parking outside.

Almost a week of television news regarding the great flood in Calgary due to a great typhoon. The flood water over-flowed from the river to the villages, subdivisions even the urban areas were not spared from the devastation. Unbelievable right? I cannot believe what was happening as if it is some sort of deluvio. We always thought that flood like that of enormous proportion would only happen in Asian countries because of its flat lands. But, you know that Alberta, the Calgary area, the province is a "flat land" where farm lands are located. The grazing land for cattle. It is the location of all Canadian's farm animals, the livestock. It is a "farm land."

As if it didn't happen to the Land Down Under, Australia. They had that epic proportion of storms and flood. Same effect. Winnipeg in Manitoba had that problem long time ago and so as many states of America. Farm lands are for farm living not for urban living.

Philippines was once the rice granary of the world. Billions of staple food are produced in the Philippines. Philippines rice granary is in the province of Luzon. The flood sort of irrigation process for the continuation of cultivating the land for rice production and for other process of vegetation. However, when millions of people populated the area, gone are the rice plantation. Farm lands were replaced with subdivision and malls, mega malls and other infrastructure. Great right?

Not so great! You cannot teach the climate to change its direction. You cannot teach Mother Nature to change its way. Mother Nature has its own rule, sense of direction and just like a habit forming way of destruction > better not to get in her way.

The process of building, renovation and improvement continues. What to do now? The process of healing and subsidies. Great for families with insurance to cover for all the mess. What happened to the people without insurance? Really it was a total mess and we can all pray for the immediate intervention of the good government. The GOVERNMENT and government officials knew what to do. They are paid to do their work and the people who voted for them should represent them in a way that would help most of those people who rely on their special skills. Hopefully they have the skills and know what they are doing. It's their work to HELP and of their greater task to WORK not just standby and wait for them to be called. Action speaks louder than words but with words of authority the "call" is being heard.

You have a "calling" therefore you must act now.

It would be the same process everywhere, in all parts of the globe. What happened to what you are watching on your TV news will act as a "pattern" and from that example you are to learn from it. It is a moral lesson for all of us. We all should own a boat. Every houses, every family should own a boat with paddle and life vests.

Matt & Cat

Sam & Cat tandem? I think it should be Matt & Cat.

The rapport between Matt and Cat is deliriously funny. I hope you're not blind to see how good they are , I mean more than great they are in every episode of  VICTORIOUS.

The only television show that can keep up with the demand is a comedy show. Without comedy in television I don't know what will happen with tele-viewers. We're all gonna be dry and hopeless. It's like being in a desert without water.

Make us laugh Cat and Matt you are the life of VICTORIOUS.
 No offense meant to the rest of the cast. You're all good actually but there are individuals who are more than talented and gifted.
