Pacquiao - Marquez Fight Controversy another excuse for Mayweather

2011-11-13T05:53:00.000-08:00

We may agree or disagree on who really won the last fight between Manny and Marquez but one thing is for sure, Floyd Mayweather may or will use this issue to avoid facing Manny in the ring. We all know that Mayweather is a very intelligent fighter and he knows that the moment he stepped on that ring with Manny, he will surely go down. So, here is what I believe what Mayweather will do. First he will make some noise regarding the issue surrounding the fight thus making the controversy bigger. Second, He will insist that there is still an unfinished business between Manny and Marquez AND they should settle it first before he faces Pac-man. Mayweather may say that he's the best fighter in the whole wide world with no lost, no controversy in any fight and yet this guy (pacquiao) want's to have a fight with him? who's he? Correct me if I am wrong but if I am Mayweather this certainly is a good opportunity to evade Pacquiao again and at the same time promote himself on the side.

Did Manny Pacquiao Really Lost the Fight with Juan Manuel Marquez?

2011-11-12T23:15:00.000-08:00

     Before that let me congratulate Manny for his win but Yes, I think so! He lost the fight.I know it is sad, but I think you will agree with me that Marquez is the one who really won. Ask anyone in the streets and they will they you that they were disappointed about the bout. It would seem that Marquez dictated the whole fight and Manny having a hard time penetrating his defenses. I am really lost for words especially when the referee announces that Manny won by unanimous decision and the crowd goes "boooooo". I think I share their sentiments also, this fight should answer all the hanging questions regarding their last two (2) fights and I think it did, Marquez won the two previous fights.
     It hurts me to admit that Manny is the one who lost but you could feel the disappointment of fans especially here in the Philippines. Before, when Manny fights the morale is always high, the expectation is high and even before they announce the winner we are already chanting his name but did you hear it today? No! I don't think so. Before almost every opponent of Manny kisses the floor of the ring even before 12 rounds even Marquez did experienced it before but it did not happen today. Maybe Marquez really is good and prepared very well in this fight. Something that Pacquiao and his camp did not expected. I also believe that Marquez is the greatest opponent that Manny Paquiao ever faced.

     Do not get me wrong I am a fan of Manny "Pac-man" Pacquiao, I am also a proud Filipino but it's just doesn't feel right that Manny won.What do you think?

IwonderHow?:What causes Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) in Windows Vista

2011-09-12T23:41:00.000-07:00

If your a Windows Vista user then you are familiar with the Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) error. We all know that Vista is prone to BSOD, the reason? There are so many but I will only tackle only one from my experience which is software. This is a very annoying error, I am using my computer as always when suddenly BSOD appeared and as you all know you cannot do anything about it but to wait for the computer to restart. I panicked!and waited for the computer to restart then it worked fine and so I thought.It was just temporary then weeks after BSOD appeared again. You know how it feels when your doing something important and suddenly your screen goes blue???what a nightmare!!!I hate this error I said. I searched the internet what causes it but i cannot find a definite answer, they say it can be from a number of reasons from hardware to software.
Finally as a last resort I "Restored" my computer using the Backup disc provided when I bought it. Using the "Restore Function" of vista, I performed the operation(i feel like a doctor on this) then it worked fine for weeks then the dreaded BSOD appeared again! I ran out of options and lost hope then I noticed something, every now and then the error only appears after I "UPDATE WINDOWS VISTA". I thought maybe this is the culprit! I turned off the automatic update setting of windows and up to now my computer works fine. I just wanted to share this to everyone and I hope this can help you also.

IwonderHow?: How to Extend your Cell Phones Battery Life

2011-09-08T23:57:00.000-07:00

1. Charging for the first time.
Upon purchase ask the seller on the "Initial Charging Time" for your new battery. Usually it ranges from 8-12 hours (depending on brand) continuously even if the battery indicator display is full. This is done for the battery to reach it's maximum capacity.Initial charging time is not included in your phone's manual so it is your job to ask or risk cutting your batteries life by half.

2. Recharge and Discharge Properly
Completely charge your phone until the battery indicator in full. Never ever recharge it even if there is still even 1 bar in the display, doing so will reduce your batteries capacity. Do not leave a fully charged battery connected to a charger since overcharging may shorten it's life.

3. Finish Charging Before Use
  As much as possible do not use your phone while charging (at least do not play games/apps) doing so puts stress on your battery and reduces its capacity. You may not see the effects immediately but time will come that you will notice your battery is not lasting much compared before.

4. Keep from Extreme Temperatures
  Keep battery between 15° and 25° extreme temperatures reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery so do not leave your cellphone inside the car under the heat of the sun.

5. Avoid Short-Circuiting
  Keep metallic objects from touching the battery terminals (they look like metallic strips) doing so will damage the battery and will render it useless.

IwonderHow?: How to Identify an illegal Recruiter

2011-09-08T09:39:00.000-07:00

You wanted to help your family so you thought of applying for a job abroad. You searched for an agency that will help you fulfill your dreams, then you sold everything you have including your house and lot, vehicles and even your father's "kalabaw" (carabao) just to pay for the placement fee. Months pass by and you are still here waiting......and finally you became frustrated and you try to call the agency but you cannot reach them by any means. Finally you realize that you have been scammed!Ahhhhhhhh! What a waste of time and money!
Today I will teach you on how to prevent this from ever happening to you. So what are illegal recruiters? Well I have made a simple definition of them

Here are the characteristics of illegal recruiters:

1. "The Sweet Talker" - someone who will promise everything even the impossible.
2. "The Money Sucker" - every time he/she see's you he will always try to get money be it for medical, documentation, transportation and of course for "fast processing".
3. "The Man" - He/she knows every important person in .PO.E.A, D.F.A, Immigration, N.S.O etc.
4. "The Genie" - He will lay down a very promising offer that you cannot resist like free transport, lodging, and of course a very high salary.
5. "The Doer" - when you inquire about your application he's answer will always be "leave it to me, just give me the money and I will take care of everything".
6. "The Magician" - He will disappear the moment you realize that you have been scammed.
7. "The Alzheimer's Patient" - The moment he/she was caught he will always deny the accusation, say that he does not even remember meeting you in the first place.

Kilalanin ang illegal recruiter!(from P.O.E.A)

Ang illegal recruiter ay:

agad naniningil ng placement fee o anumang kaukulang bayad nang walang resibo
nangangako ng madaliang pag-alis patungo sa ibang bansa
nagre-require agad ng medical examination o training kahit wala pang malinaw na employer o kontrata
nakikipag-transaksiyon sa mga aplikante sa mga pampublikong lugar tulad ng restaurant, mall, atbpa. at hindi sa opisina ng lisensyadong ahensiya
bahay-bahay kung mag-recruit ng mga aplikante
hndi nagbibigay ng sapat na impormasyon tungkol sa ina-aplayang trabaho
nagsasabi na may kausap na direct employer at ang mga aplikante ay di na kailangang dumaan sa POEA
nangangako ng mabilis na pag-alis ng aplikante gamit ang tourist o visit visa
walang maipakitang employment contract o working visa
nagpapakilala na empleyado ng isang lisensyadong recruitment agency ngunit walang maipakitang ID
nagpapakilala na konektado sa isang travel agency o training center
nanghihikayat sa mga aplikante na mangalap ng iba pang aplikante upang mapabilis ang pagpapaalis
walang maibigay na sapat at tamang impormasyon tungkol sa sarili tulad ng buong pangalan o address
nangangako na ang mga dokumento ay ipapasok sa POEA para mai-process (lalo na sa kaso ng EPS-Korea)

IwonderHow?: How to Save on Your Electric Bill

2011-08-31T09:40:00.000-07:00

1. Unplug Appliances When Not in Use.
Probably you have heard this a million times ( just exaggerating ) but this actually is true. Even if the appliance is off it still sucks a very small amount of energy. Remember that any electric current that goes out of the outlet is already considered "used" energy and the plug is it's way out.

2. Keep your Fan from Moving.
Just face your fan in one direction because it uses additional energy when moving from left to right.

3. Clean your Fan and Air-Conditioner.
It is suggested that you do this every month, I recommend using a DishWashing liquid when cleaning the blades and grills of the fan because it's faster and makes it cleaner. Dust inside the machine makes the motor use more energy than needed.

4. Use CFL ( Compact Fluorescent Lamp ).
CFL's uses less energy than conventional Incandescent light bulbs. Proof? Incandescent lamps are used in poultry's to give heat to chickens plus it gives your home a lonely look.

5. Turn Off Lights When Not in Use.
You don't need to light every room in the house only keep those important, just turn them on when you are about to use them.

6. Make a Schedule.
Make a list of programs you want to watch then decide in which is important. I usually watches from 12:00 PM - 2:00 PM because of " Eat Bulaga " then 6:30 PM - 8:00 PM to watch the news or you can just opt to never watch T.V anymore, you just didn't saved money you will also have more time for your family.

7. Monitor your Bill.
Did you know that you can save money if your bill's Kilowatt Hour reading falls below 100? It is called " Lifeline Discount ".

00 to 20   Kwh = 100%
21 to 50   Kwh = 50%
51 to 70 Kwh   = 35%
71 to 100 Kwh = 20%

8. Do not Use Dryer
Why use the machine when you can take advantage of the Sun. It's free, disinfects your clothes and makes it cleaner and whiter.

     If you follow these tips above you can save up to 50 percent off your electric bill. I usually pay from P800 - P1000 / month before, now I pay only P 400 - P 600.

IwonderHow?: How to Save on Your Water Bill

2011-08-31T08:25:00.000-07:00

It's the end of the month and probably you are just like everyone else shocked why your bills are so high. Now you are worrying if you can pay all these, well, I will show you on how to minimize your bill thus saving you from worries every month.

1. Use a Dipper ( tabo )
When taking a bath use a dipper, also make it a habit of using up to 2 buckets of water for the whole duration of your bath.

2. Don't use Flush
Believe it or not you don't need the whole tank for flushing. Use bucket ( timba ) or dipper instead, it would only require about 1/4 of the water you usually use

note: turn off water lever of the tank for you not to be tempted to use the flush. It is located under the tank fixed to the wall at the end of the host.

3. Use Recycled Water
Use water from the lavatory for flushing, open the cap of the P-trap under the lavatory and put a bucket to catch the water then use it.

note: just put the cap back when the bucket is full.

4. Collect Rain Water
This is one sure way to save because rain is free, just collect water and store it in a drum. You can use it to clean the garage floor, water the plants and for flushing.

note: be sure to put a cover on your drum to prevent mosquitoes from breeding.

5. Collect Laundry Water
You can also collect water used in your laundry, the one with suds can be used to clean the garage (it still has cleaning power) or comfort room.

note: do not use this to water your plants, it has chemical agents that may harm them.

6. Turn off faucet while brushing and also use a glass.

You are sure to save from 20 - 40 percent if you do these tips. I am sure of it because I am doing these for a long time. Before my bill was around P250 - P300 / month now it is only P140 - P180 / month.

IwonderHow?:Earn Extra income from Damaged Appliances?

2011-08-28T23:48:00.000-07:00

Do you have damaged appliances like electric fans, television set, flat iron, computers which is just sitting in your garage or under the stair cabinet collecting dust? Did you know that you can earn money from them? Yup! you can sell them to peddlers that goes around your area and buys these items for a minimum prize although I prefer to sell them directly to junk shops due to higher rate.

Here are the prices for each item:

bakal = P 13.00/ kilo

platic = P 10.00/ kilo

bottles = P.50/ piece

cans of sardines = 5/ kilo

tanso (copper) = P 300.00 / kilo

Now here's the secret for doubling your income from damaged appliances. You take out the tanso (copper) inside them and sell them separately then sell the body of the appliance again per kilo so you got an income doubled compared to selling the appliance without taking out the copper because it will only be P 10.00/ kilo including the copper inside remember that it costs more than just plastic $$.

note: be careful when removing copper, for girls please seek help because it requires some hammering.
