The Wowowee controversy

The way I see it: Two douche bags babbling nonsense on T.V.

They are wasting the time of the people who choose to waste time watching the noontime shows. The least the people behind the shows can do is to provide quality and non-controversial content. There is no need to cry in public. It is very lame.

Whatever they are doing, it's giving them an awful lot of publicity. Ratings. $$$

The senate? Why should the senate become involved with such nonsense? I mean, come on. It's annoying enough that a multi-million, under-the-table, money-wasting, obviously-corrupted national broadband network deal exists. Bringing an issue with this caliber to the senate? Absurd.

Relatives huh?

It's funny. We opened our 2006 Christmas gifts just now. That's four months before the next one. Hindi kasi namin alam na may gifts pala kami sa place ng mga relatives namin. Talk about no communication.

Magtatrabaho na nga eh

Makalipas ang anim na linggong pagtambay sa bahay, magsisimula na ang bagong yugto sa buhay kong ito. Ang pagbabalik trabaho.

Isang linggo nalang, 9 a.m. - 6 p.m. nanaman. Ang dami ko pang hindi napapanood na pelikula. Pakiramdam ko kulang pa ang halos dalawang buwang pagtambay at pagpapakatamad.

Pangalawang trabaho ko na. Iba na kasi ang maganda ang attitude towards work. Yung tipong lahat nalang ng bagay sa trabaho ayaw. Marami nang nagsabi sa aking there is no perfect organization, napakahirap ko lang sigurong pagsabihan. Tigasin ang ulo. Maaari rin namang ayaw ko lang talagang makinig.

Ang dami kong pinagpalit na bagay at inaksayang panahon para sa trabahong ito, sana maging sulit.

June 2007 Nurse Licensure Exam

Marami ang pumasa, marami rin ang hindi. 31,275 of 64,909 + 248 of 336. Mukhang mahirap yung exam ano. Pwedeng bang mag-exam kapag hindi nag-take ng nursing? XD
Congratulations to all passers, especially my friends. To those who were unlucky, better luck next time.

Installing Wordpress and apparently AMP on Windows XP

Why? I was setting up a wordpress blog on my localhost to be able to do some local blogging.

Here's how I did it:
  • Download Apache Web Server. I took the 2.2.4 version. At the time of this writing, these are the latest stable versions.
  • Download MySQL Server. 5.0.45.
  • Download PHP. 5.2.3.
  • Download Wordpress. 2.2.2.
  • Install them all.
  • Test and figure out why it's not working.
  • Tada, a fully functional system.
So much for detail.
The thing is, I've done this sort of setup in the past for the Joomla CMS. The installation is pretty much the same.

My Comments:
  • Prefer to use these technologies in Linux because it is easier with all the shell power among other things. LAMP is LAMP after all.
  • I'm kind of annoyed that the naming for the pages for the Apache Web Server is htdocs. It gave me some trouble looking for the file that contained the "It's works!" string.
  • The httpd configuration file by default was set to only serve index.html. It did not include index.php.
  • I encountered a bug wherein the PHP module does not work until the PC is restarted which was weird because it has been reported already 5 years ago. I had to restart the PC for the PHP module to work. This link helped me through it. Kind of funny because I was REALLY able to relate to the posters.

Or here.

* Added a new hero from the Model-To-Hero contest (see below)
* Added a new ability for Animal Courier to change its model.
* Fixed Planeswalker's Cloak and Hood of Defiance stacking issues on various heroes' innate magic resistance abilities.
* Fixed an old rare bug with Leshrac (and recently Storm) that would cause them to constantly drain mana.
* Fixed a bug when killing heroes with Crow
* Fixed Flesh Heap to work properly with suicides
* Fixed a bug in -dm -nd that causes the hero after Bristleback to have Warpath if Bristleback dies with the buff on, and the player quickly picks a new hero.
* Fixed the game mode text to display in proper order
* Fixed Starfall doing extra damage on the second hit
* Restored Freeze Hero functionality
* Added a command -test to enable single player commands to be usable in multiplayer for easier extensive testing

* Increased ranged creep's mana pool
* Rebalanced Sanity's Eclipse (Less damage, better leveling)
* Improved Harbinger's casting animation time

* Fixed Panda's Storm Wind Walk stats

Apparently they took this map off the site. Just archiving.

Malu Fernandez?

One-day-famous, elitist writer.

Lol. Natawa nalang ako. Banggain ba naman ang milyong Pinoy OFW.

Nakatikim tuloy siya ng hate mail, death threat, insulto, at resignation among other things.

Porn Again

Recently, there is this rumor that Angel Locsin did some porn.

I had to do the right thing.

I watched the rumored porn video.

I got the information from the local news. The news that everyone can watch.

The video goes for +32 minutes. I didn't watch it all. It is 3 in the morning after all.

Here are some of my findings regarding the video.
  • Hell no, that girl is not Angel Locsin. Apparently, some prick with poor vision concluded that it is her because she does resemble the actress. Or maybe because he/she wanted the girl on the video to be the actress. Wicked sick. =)
  • This is the first time I watched Thai porn. It's kind of weird that the face of the guy is censored. I just don't get it. Camera shy?
  • There is piano music playing while the stars are doing their best. Come on. Hindi bagay.
As far as I can see, the "cleaning" of Angel's name is in the name of business. Another profit maximization strategy. That is because she just transferred to another station and all, which is another profit maximization strategy. But really, I'm disappointed in the fact that the network allowed to show the video on air. They shouldn't have.
