    My kids love pets. I have 5 children and the three youngest are so inclined in taking care of the pets in the house. You can say we have a mini zoo because their numbers are growing. Except the eldest male who is […]

    • That is nice, your children will grow mature, responsible and loving. At home my nephew kids ages 7 and 5 have pet rooster and hen.How nice to cook them hehehe.

    • In my parent’s house too, where my single nephews who are already professionals live, there are a lot of pets.

      At the porch, there are hedgehogs and their house is in one corner of the porch, owned by my gay nephew. He also have 2 tsih tzu.

      Then, there’s an aquarium, where there is a big Arwana, it’s also owned by my other nephew who lives in a separate house but on the compound of the family. There, they still have 2 aquariums too of different fishes. He also have a dog, a pincher.

      Then another nephew have 2 Belgian Malinois, the female gave birth a year ago to 9 puppies, unfortunately recently they get afflicted by a virus and six died.

      My parents have local dogs or aspins and they were all spread over the lawn at the backyards. We have 2 of them.

      Before, the nephew who owns the aquariums, also have a parrot. Unluckily, it was suddenly gone from its cage.

      So, my parents house too is full of pets. ha ha ha

    The writ of habeas corpus in the island of Mindanao was suspended which means the rule of the largest island of the Philippines is under martial law. The commander-in-chief of Armed Forces of the Philippines, […]

    • We have to be extra careful this time.

    • I pray that the Martial Law declared in Marawi will turn out for the good of the place. For me, it is needed.

      We cannot let those terrorists reign. We need to arrest their terrorism and I hope the armed forces will win against those groups.

      I hope and pray that peace will reign again and pray also that those soldiers be safe from the fighting.

    • The problem of terrorism is increasing all over the world. Some religious organizations have promoted it. Now it’s time to eradicate them from the world. All countries should come together to resolve this problem.

    • Whether there is Martial Law or none, the government should do it’s best to eradicate the terrorists. I pity the affected civilians!

    • The Philippines has been through some hardships.It seems that history repeats itself. In World War II, The Japanese invaded the island and caused atrocities, destroying villages and other unspeakable horrors. Now we have ISIS, who are doing the same. The world need to take this example from our friends in the Philippians–Terrorism is real and needs to be stopped. Today it is them, tomorrow it might be in your back yard. Let’s pray for the Philippians and believe for protection and God’s grace for that beloved land.

      But for Filipino shows, I love Home ALong Da Riles, Palibhasa Lalake and a lot more titles I also forgot.

    When various programs were only viewable on television, there was virtually no ‘cross overs’. A character on one show did not appear on another. Even though there may be a slurry of ‘westerns’ all happeni […]

    • Television show producers/directors, etc. should be creative enough to get more viewership or retain patrons; and one way is by employing cross-overs which you mentioned because those famous artists have loyal followers/fans and they will switch channels wherever they are.

      • And it widens the plots. It brings in new ideas and the show becomes a bit of a hybrid, interesting and breaking the mold.

    What the heck about the Anti-Distracted Driving Act or ADDA. Isn’t it that rosary and faith should save us from accident and will not lead us to it? But not in the point of view of Land Transportation F […]

    • I was surprised too, when I saw the two nodding dogs above the computer table that my hubby always work on.

      When I asked him, he said he removed it already, because it’s one of those that were mentioned to be banned by the dashboard. Oh, they were just small and below the eye level of the driver , so how can they obstruct their sights, besides they are at the middle part of the dashboard.

      Anyway, as to the rosary, I also am not in favor of them including that in the ban. It’s placed in such a way that it is not obstructing the mirror by the upper front of the dashboard.

      But anyway, let us see how strictly this will be implemented. I hope the senators can suggest modifying the law.

      • As I read in the newspaper some of the senators will be proposing for the suspension of the implementation of this law for further study of the implementing rules and regulations. I am so in favor of this move.

    • A rosary does not create road accident, maybe those who recommend this are non-catholic.There are so many reactions. Anyway my car is clean.

    • Rosaries are no longer banned because many drivers opposed that idea. Rosaries do not block driver’s view, but provide them an inspiration to go on safely so they won’t hurt other people on the road too! It is a reminder for one to be good!

    In ancient days, a show came on at Nine p.m. on ABC on Monday night. The season began in September, usually the second or third week. It ran until May. Usually it was about twenty eight episodes in a season.

    This […]

    • Nowadays here, shows are done in such a way, that it would be for the weekdays from Mondays to Fridays, then some for only on weekends.

      And on weekends, mostly would be, shows good for children or for the family since the parents would be home because there’s no work.

      This pattern is good since the management knows what to really capture on these particular days.

      • When the shows take a break, i.e. from May to September and some break from January to July, viewers will watch something else. On line, people forget to go back.

    • Long breaks do not make sense for people will wonder why.Maybe they are doing some manipulations.

      • It is a ‘season’. The season runs for nine months in Vintage time, about five months now. And theres a break. Often the show is re run during the break, now new shows are introduced and often if they don’t catch the viewer not only does that show croak but so does the show it was replacing.

    Imagine the garbage collector without hazard pay or a construction worker at risk of falling from the high rise building, a driver driving the passenger bus for more than 10 hours per day and enduring the everyday […]

    • In the US, people also respect those people who are doing small works or heavy works. But this is not the case in India. The person who earns less money in India is considered to be trivial. Here the owner treats his servant as an animal. Even after hard work every day, he does not have so much money that he can buy food for his family. This injustice has been running for many centuries. Now it’s time to change. Everyone should get their correct pay.

      • Such that kind of system our government want to change. The privilege and benefits of employees should be given by employers including the protection and good payment for them. Its only good when the government act in this kind of problem and not just let the employers do want they want. If the government will protect the employees maybe they will have a better productivity and output.

    • That is so nice to know that such bill to protect the workers will soon be passed.

      It’s high time that these workers should be given their due hazard pays especially those construction workers who work under the scorching sun.

      The company I am employed with really follows the rules of DOLE with regards the pay, leaves and the like. They know the consequences when we are not able to abide by them, because before we were sued by workers.

      Now, our company learned our lessons so we really abide by the laws of DOLE.

    I realise that the inference is that the photos in the ‘library’ are free to use.  Anyone who pauses when it comes to the photo section will see photos and images and assume they are free to use.

    It could be a simple misconception.

    • I am always careful in my driving, sometimesI commute afraid to drive too far places.There are so many reckless drivers this time.They lack discipline and seminar.

      • I think that is one of the best thing to do to avoid the vehicular accidents in the national road– to commute instead of using your own car. At least you can relax and sit well while in travel and let the driver do their job.

        But when times you really need to drive your own car, at least you take the precautionary measures to avoid possible road accidents. Being attentive in the steering wheel and breaks and eyes on the road always can help. At least we can be alert always.

    • Great article

    • I prefer to stay at home during rainy days and watch Tv.

      • At least you can make some popcorn or fry some potato fries so you have something to eat while watching your favorite TV show. Or maybe you can just buy some cornik or squash seeds to munch in.

    • I also prefer to be just at home when it’s raining.

      I remember us, 5 siblings by your mention of your 6 children at home. It’s really a happy day when it’s raining. We would bathe in the rain and run here and there at our lawn.

      Then, after that we would be at home eating snacks. We also watch TV together with our parents.

      The rain always keeps us cozy and happy at home whenever it rains.

      Most of all, the rain keeps the surrounding cool. It’s best to sleep after lunch and at night when it’s raining.

    • Nice article. Rain is good but too much can be a problem. Over in Virginia, my area tends to have mosquitoes and they can be a problem after the rain. When it is raining, I tend to take a nap. I like to hear the sound of rain hitting my roof and side of the house. It’s like a symphony to me. Although,there have been times in which I was, not, taking a nap. During those times, I would take my android and watch some comedy videos. A good laugh is a plus to help you cope with the weather. It is, also, a healthy habit to do. Finally, thank you for sharing your tips. It was helpful and very insightful.

    • Hi? Sore eyes are bad.We must always protect our health. This kind of sickness cannot be healed right away, so it should be treated as soon as possible if feel eyes itchy and reddy.

    • Sore eyes is very contagious. That is why at the office, when one has sore eyes, it is imperative that he has to take a sick leave.

      And if ever his eyes begins having the symptoms of sore eyes, he should right away file a sick leave and go home and treat it. He should come back when it is already treated.

      I had sore eyes before when I was in elementary school. I was taken by my mom to an eye doctor who prescribed eye drops. Oh my, it’s so hard to wake up in the morning because my eyes would be filled with morning star. But after about three or five days of treating it with eye drops, it was gone.

      I don’t ever want to have sore eyes again.
