Yahoo! Mail to offer unlimited storage capacity

March 31, 2007

As celebration for their 10-year anniversary, Yahoo! Mail will offer unlimited mail storage capacity starting on May 2007 as announced on Tuesday.

The free version of Yahoo! Mail (basic), which is used by majority of users, offers only 1GB of storage and limited features such as the limited 10MB attachments. You need to upgrade to Yahoo! Mail plus to get more features you want including a “virtually unlimited” 2GB mail storage capacity and larger attachments.

Yahoo! Mail used to be the “giant” in mail industry but when Google started Gmail, millions have converted to it as their primary e-mail provider. This was due to the larger storage capacity - 2GB - and several other great features.

Children in a bus hostaged

March 29, 2007

Will idealism kill?

Armando “Jun” Ducat Jr., owner of a day-care center and entrepeneur, hostaged 26 kids and 4 tutors in a bus during a field trip [read the full story]. A magical mystery tour as he packed his UZI, a 45- caliber pistol, and a grenade. What’s ironic was that the hostages didn’t seem to fear Armando. His neighbors supported his cause and even held a short protest rally. What’s the demand?

“Ducat had demanded support for the education of at least 145 school children of the Musmos Daycare and improved housing for them and their families.”

A pathetic cause for a hostage undertaking. However, in a third world country such as the Philippines…[read more]

Why Haven’t I Bagged A Date Yet?

March 29, 2007

Dude. How lame am I when it comes to the dating game? I mean this guy, Bao Xishun, who is a herdsman in Inner Mongolia, hooks up with ladies all around the world. And he’s not even trying to get their numbers in bars - the ladies actually give it to him. Then the applicants go through a “long selection process” and whoever the heck wins becomes his wife.

American Idol Season 6: Gwen Stefani Week

March 28, 2007

I was excited when I learned Gwen Stefani is going to mentor this week’s AI performance. As was said in the show, she’s a songwriter, a pop icon, a former frontwoman of rockband, No Doubt, a fashion designer, and a stellar performer. She’s a very unique, well-rounded artist. I wanted to see what new things she’ll be teaching the AI contestants. And of course, if she’s mentoring this week, it means that the contestants will be singing her songs! AI fans would have been in for an exciting time because Gwen Stefani songs are all unique. So, I thought it will be a difficult week for the contestants and yet, I want to see how they’d do.

What could be causing your slow internet connection?

March 28, 2007

For the past weeks, I had a very slow connection (again). Since I’m on a SmartBro connection, this case is not new. Instead of wasting my time calling their costumer service, and waiting for their worst after sales support. No, I made a few attempts to call them actually, but it seemed that I could not “catch” any representative because only a voice prompt answers my calls.

So, I tried to resort to other means that I thought could speed up my PC. I downloaded some internet booster software, which didn’t work. I also tried to run several browsers, thinking that Mozilla Firefox no more works for faster browsing on my PC. I even tried to install the latest version of Fasterfox, a Firefox extensions which tweaks some of the browser’s configuration for faster browsing. I cleaned up my hard disk, deleting all the unused files, including some of my mp3 collections. I’ve deleted almost 1000 mp3 files, which I regretted after. I patiently downloaded some of them when I was still on a dial-up connection. None of these things worked.

An inch short of a fantasy vacation

March 26, 2007

Last weekend, our team went on our annual summer outing. As most other companies do, a beach resort almost always is involved in the trip.

I am not here though to share with you the bikini lines, the sunburns, the ocean blue or the white sand of the resort that we went to. I would rather share an interesting experience with the food that was served to us by the resort.

The Bonjing and His Pop

March 26, 2007

I had one of the most toxic duties yesterday, not because of the difficulty of the cases but because of the volume of patients seen and the degree of which each patient demanded attention.

A person I recall the fastest is actually a patient’s father. His quirkiness arrived late in the morning with his 27-year old, able-bodied son. He spoke with a slurred authoritative tone.

“Nagsimba ka na ba ha (Did you hear mass already)?” He asked me and the entire ER staff.

in retrospect… » having penis envy…

March 26, 2007

every male [yes, including me], have at one time or another envied the package of the next man… we sneak a look at that bulge, and wished we have the same… or when we watch porno movies and we loook at the penises of known male porno stars Ron Jeremy, Mr Marcus, or the ever-famous-with-women-who-love-butt-plugs Peter North, men cringe when they do not measure up to these porno stars’ baggages… the length and the width are our main points of comparison…

What is a Tumbleblog?

March 26, 2007

A couple days ago, I came across something new called a tumbleblog. It’s the first time for me to read or hear about it. So I did some research and this is what I found out about tumbleblogs.

What’s a tumblelog?

A tumblelog is a variation of a blog, that favors short-form, mixed-media posts over the longer editorial posts frequently associated with blogging. Common post formats found on tumblelogs include links, photos, quotes, dialogues, and video. Unlike blogs, this format is frequently used to share the author’s creations, discoveries, or experiences without providing a commentary

Banana Peels

March 24, 2007

[FROM CAMZ]On a lighter note: And ♥ just keeps on getting better.
On a not so lighter note: I often wonder at how some people could find nothing better to do than to wait for other people to fall flat on their faces, so they could feel better about themselves. It brings to mind a picture of some kanto boy (or girl?) who placed banana skins on the pavement and waited to see who would step on it and slip, just so he or she could get a laugh. These kinds of people never realized that while they are laughing, those who slipped got up and went on their ways, while they are still sitting in the same old spot. Stagnant. Rotting (in hell I hope). So on whom is the joke on now? [CONTINUE READING]

Why Filpinos Are Getting Dumber

March 24, 2007

Despite nationwide literacy rate reaching up to 90% or more, I think our country is in a state of continuing mental atrophy. To have an idea of what I’m talking about, just turn on your television set and switch to your favorite channel. What do you see? Hour after hour of daytime entertainment shows banking on people’s stupidity with a background of half-naked gyrating women. Switch to another channel and you’ll get saturated with a telethon of Asian and local telenovelas with formulaic plots consisting of 70% screaming and crying and 30% insubstantial dialogues.

What happened to the informative shows on social issues, news, and educational discussions and documentaries? Almost are shunted to the late night TV slots when most people are already asleep. Media cannot be totally blamed for this because they only respond to the people’s demands. And when most people demand for shows that require totally zero brain matter usage, then they give it.

Love Is Not A Destiny

March 24, 2007

It’s not certain whether the one you have now is the one you’ll be with for the rest of your life. There’s even no guarantee if the one you have just met is the one who will love you forever. Because there is no such thing as the ideal man or woman. It is us who can make love last a lifetime. So if ever somebody asks you, “is he/she the right one?”, you can answer: “I’m not sure but I intend him/her to be my only one.”

I’m not fond of receiving forwarded text quotes because, first of all, it’s unnecessarily filling up my limited phone inbox. Second, I don’t have time to erase each one as it comes. The text message above, though, is one of those text messages that I’ve saved. Why? Because I think it makes sense. Simple or chummy as it sounds, it divulges a lot of wisdom lacking in most text quotes.

I asked some of my friends if they believe there is that one person out there meant for them to love. All of those I asked said yes. Then, I followed it up with, “how do you know if that person is the One?”

Here is one answer given to me:

in retrospect… » US court taking free speech a little too far

March 23, 2007

i chanced upon this news story today from CNNMoney and i am glad that i do not live in the US nor am i its citizen…

in a very bold move, a US federal court judge overturned a law which restricts children’s access to Internet porn as being too restrictive and unconstitutional, and which violates its people’s right to free speech… the ruling which came out March 22nd ruled against the Child Online Protection Act of 1998 due to a challenge by the American Civil Liberties Union…

March 23, 2007

it all started about 3 months ago, when my Internet connection bandwidth from Globelines Broadband started declining for some reason… i later found out that the connections were broken due to the earthquake that happened in Taiwan and Globelines was not the only one affected [although i heard they had the worst of it]… the connections only started stabilizing about a month and a half ago…
