Meteorite hits Russia

News websites around the world are showing us the properties destroyed and people injured by meteorites as it hit the Ural region of Russia. It caused panic in the three municipalities but ironically, the world governments are mum about the incident. Sounds like nobody wants this escalated into a worldwide panic.

But are the global leaders preparing the human race by its silence? Sadly, I feel not.

Is it the end of the world? Definitely not but the world will have to go on a CTRL-ALT-DEL mode an restart all over again. Will we be part of the human race that will enjoy one thousand years of Heaven on Earth? I don't know, only God will know this.

So here are some links and videos you might want to see.  It has been revealed and it has been written. Its all up to you to decide.

Windows shattered, people injured and one woman hospitalized because of a heart attack.



And its not really nice to hear these broadcasters say 'It's just a teaser guys, more to come."

Full Moon November 2012

Tonight my kids went to their lolo's house, a few blocks away from our place, and watched the lunar eclipse. They were equipped with camera phones, iTouch and a bottle of anti-mosquito bites called Citronela. And they're back now with a lot of stories, pictures and mosquito bites. They went on the roofdeck but still managed to be bitten by these pesky mosquitoes.

And while they were away, I played some games over at ChessCube. Here's one interesting h-file, ala-back rank mate:

 

And since the tide is high and the lunatics are out, here is one event we don't want to see happening. The future of the people involved are definitely bleak and the victim's family are going to have Christmas with sore eyes and heavy hearts. The death of the US Marine, a Bel-Air Makati resident, in the hands of the five rich kids, was caught on closed-circuit television:



Judgement?

Though shall not kill.

And if you are a foreigner in a foreign land, respect the locals!

Shameful Ivory Trade in the Philippines

Here comes another one of those international embarrassment for us Filipinos. I won't be surprised if the Senate and Congress will milk this one out for their publicity stunts. Remember, the circus a.k.a election is right around the corner.

And yes, this issue has picked on a certain Catholic priest as the center of it all. RH Bill, Mining and Manny V. Pangilinan's pull-out from Ateneo de Manila. What's next?

The irony of it all is that I want to buy this NatGeo October issue. Great marketing strategy!

Earth Day 2012

Today is Earth Day and everyone thinks going green is the best way to solve environmental problems plaguing our Mother Earth.  Environmental activists all around the world have tried in vain to help in preventing further damage to our only home which has suffered greatly since the dawn of industrialization.

I say "unless greed, abuse of power and selfishness is not addressed among the world's elite, our environment will never recover from further destruction".

The year 2012 is critical for all humans. Will we be seeing the end of times to see the new Era of Peace for Mankind? I repeat, it is the end of times that we are to look into and not the end of the world. It is the end of sinning for mankind and the reign of peace that we are looking forward to seeing.

Will our race be ready for the challenges ahead?

I guess these activists are screaming to their hearts discontent and yet missing the point. Greed, abuse of power and selfishness have led humanity to where we are now. We are now in a new dimension where the fight between good and evil is obvious.

Which side will you be in? It's your choice.

Science Field Guides and Manuals

Science is best learned through actual experience and for teachers, it is a must that students are given the opportunity to experience the topics at hand. And if your class have Animal Adaptation for your topic, the field guide below by the Milwaukee ZOological Society will hopefully be of help:


Field Guide to Animal Adaptation And most likely as a 21st century teacher, you are into photography. That camera must be used to document your student's learning and your own. So here is the National Geographic Ultimate Photo Guide: NG Ultimate Photo Guide

The Year 2012

Much has been written and discussed about the year 2012. Doomsday prophets and soothsayers have a thing or two to say about the year as much as Year 2000 or more popularly known as Y2K. Before, it was Y2K that the whole world fantasized about. Now it is the year 2012 and all the environmental hazards we humans are facing are the products of our own making --human civilization.

Here are some web resources you guys might want to check. A piece of advice, conspiracy theorists are feasting on these and you might need plenty of common sense and a lot of faith in whatever you believe in. As for me, my faith in the Lord our God i the only thing that keeps me alive.

With all the theories available for us to read, the only think that really matters is the safety and survival of the human race. Will the year 2012 be the last year of the world as we know it?

Operation Endgame

I was searching for an Endgame video to post here but was surprised to find this video. Conspiracy theory that reflects the mayhem happening all over the world. Unrest in the European continent, economic meltdown and disasters that's man-made and natural.

Is there an elite, secret society aiming to wipe-out eighty percent of the human population? Scary thoughts to think about!

Technical Primer on Climate Change in the Philippines

This is another post that has a lot to do with what is really happening all around the globe and in the Philippines.Climate changehas caused so much problems that really affect all the layers and classes of the 21st century society.

Excluding the conspiracy theory going around about HAARP, Climate Change can only be addressed with the right knowledge:

Start of a New World: Global Destruction

The list is piling up. Haiti, New Zealand and recently Japan. These nations were all hit by earthquakes and suffered the devastation it brought to the people and economy. The Philippines have had its share too with earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, typhoons and Tsunamis.

To make matters worse, Middle Eastern countries and those from North Africa specifically Libya and Lebanon are fighting. People are dying from all sorts of diseases and natural calamities.

Social unrest and moral decay are seen. Internet, video games and Hollywood lifestyle are the surest way to hell.

It has been written a long, long time ago. It had happened too in the time of Noah when God cleansed the world with the Deluge.

From what I've heard, this time, our generation will end with fire, not with water. Planet Earth will have to go on a restart mode and the countdown to global destruction has began fifty years ago.

Watch this video and please pray for everyone's safety:

No to Mining in Palawan

I received a flyer yesterday from one of my colleagues which asks me to sign against this mining project in Palawan. And today I got an email from someone asking me to do the same. Turns out there is one big personality going against the Palawan Mining and it's none other than Ms. Gina Lopez, Managing Director of ABS CBN Foundation Inc.

Here is the letter signed by Ms. Lopez:

My Dear Friends,

On January 24 a very dear friend and colleague Gerry Ortega was shot in the head dead. I was just with him that weekend - and a few minutes before he died what we were discussing over the phone was an anti-mining campaign in Palawan - given that on December two huge mining applications were railroaded - and they were to be near protected sites.

Gerry is dead but we will not let go of his dreams - and mine - and probably yours too.

Palawan has 17 key bio diversity sites - which means it is part of the 70% bio diversity sites which are essential for sustaining life in the planet. It has 2 world heritage sites, 8 protected sites . Yet if you see Palawan on the map you will note that it is a very thin island - which is 82% mountain. It means that if the forest gets denuded and the minerals excavated - the tailings seep directly int o the sea affecting the coral reefs. The top soil is thin - and the island eco system is fragile.

Mining is not the way to go for Palawan. I have five eco tourism sites wherein the communities involved can now send their children to school, can dream bigger dreams. Mayor Hagedorn in Puerto Princesa has banned mining and logging - and focused on tourism and agriculture. From 2 flights a week, Puerto Princesa now boasts 10 flights a day. His revenues have gone up from several million to several billion.

Mining as an economic path in a magnificent "Last Frontier" is based on a paradigm of economic growth that is myopic and archaic . In this age of climate change and global warming any economic development that does not recognize and revere the web of life should be thrown in the dustbin.

Please please support the ten million signature campaign to Stop Mining in Palawan. The richness of Palawan is the wealth and pride of the country, it is the wealth of the world. Log in to ww.no2mininginpalawan.com . Register your vote and please please send it to thousands others. You can also include your household by downloading the form printing it - and faxing it t 4152227 or you can scan it and send it to signatures@no2mininginpalawan.com. Questions can be sent to signatures@no2mininginpalawan.com.

Hail oh Hale!

Today and yesterday showed us how crazy the weather system has been. Morning and noontime high temperatures were followed by afternoon rains and this caused too much traffic along the Aguinaldo highway and coastal road going to Cavite. I say it has been as crazy as the old man from my character book because it rained hale yesterday in Imus, Cavite while it was scorching heat around Paranaque City.

I received an SMS from my wife telling me how hot it was at home but been raining cats and dogs. The first splash didn't sound right from the roofs so she had to check out and she felt like pebbles were hitting her feet and the ground. When she looked she was surprised to see crystal-blur specks of ice! Hail oh hale to the weather system brought to us by the Global Warming phenomenon.

Acid rain it was last Wednesday and I can't help but regret the fact that the people who enjoyed the wetness of the afternoon didn't know about it until they complained of itchiness on their skin. Sigh!

In a matter of hours I'll be boarding the bus that will bring the grades 6b and 7 to Bauan, Batangas for their Environmental Sciences Outbound Education. This will be the second time for me and Ms. Ana and this ain't no peanuts as we both know the responsibilities of herding and shepherding teeny boppers who thinks they know better.

With the weather system we're having now, I pray dearly to God and Mother Nature to guide us and protect us in our endeavor. May in all things God be glorified forever!

It is a full moon since Tuesday night and tomorrow I will find out the effects of the moon on the water, real-time.

So long!
