Who Is Andres Bonifiacio?

In August of 1896, at Pugadlawin, Kalookan, Bonifacio gathered his men and fearlessly urged them to tear up their cedulas as a symbilic gesture of their defiance of Spanish rule. Thus began, the Philippine Revolution against Spain.

A difficult childhood gave Andres the strenght to face all odds with great courage and determination. He was the eldest of six children of Catalina de Castro and Santiago Bonifacio.

Mt. Sinubang Volcano Awakens After 400 Years

More than 19,000 Indonesians fled from their homes to seek emergency shelters after Mt. Sinabung erupted after 400 years.

The volcano had been pumping out smoke all day Saturday and panic could have been averted had the alert levels been raised in the area surrounding Mt. Sinubang.

Although the Indonesian archipelago lies on the Pacific "Ring of Fire" and has at least 129 active volcanoes, Mt. Sinubang had not erupted since 1600 and no one really knew anything about it. Then again, no one really knew anything about the devastating tsunami that hit them in 2004 either.

Naruto 508: A Death Befitting A Shinobi

Best viewed in Fullscreen Mode
Naruto 508 Facebookol
No one's particulary a fan of Guy because his character is freaky and of course Kakashi is way cooler. But Guy (Gai) was extremely powerful in this episode.

We see a different personality in Guy in Chapter 507 of the Naruto Manga. A power and ability that's been shown worthy to rival that of Kakashi--and one that could add to his fanbase beside that of Bruce Lee fanatics. ^^,--by single-handedly beating Kisame; Itachi's partner and one of Akatsuki's most powerful members. But is the fight isn't over?

Just Like Mike

Less than two weeks ago, Scottie Pippen was inducted into the Hall of Fame just like Mike.

Just like Mike, Scottie Pippen is going to get his own bronze statue at the United Center.

The Chicago Bulls plan to unveil the bronze statue of the seven-time All-Star who along with Michael Jordan led them to six championships in the 90s, at some point next season.

Reunited

Guess who's reunited with Michael Jordan? Scottie Pippen? Tony Kukoch? Dennis Rodman?

Hah! Kwame Brown! Now how about that. I guess you reap what you sow! Lol! Pun intended!

Kwame Brown is considered Bobcats owner Michael Jordan's worst decision as an executive. But, Kwame Brown signed a one-year, $1.3 million deal to help deal with the depth problems at center, then met the media wearing shorts with Jordan’s Jumpman logo on the side.

The Stig's Identity Revealed

The Stig's driving plus the mystery surrounding his persona has been on of the premier highlights of the popular car TV show Top Gear.

Many have tried to guess who the man was behind the Star Wars Clone Trooper-looking helmet and failed. In fact, The Stig's identity is in the ten most-searched-for terms on Ask.com.

Last year, Top Gear revealed Michael Shumacher as The Stig, but it turned out to be a brilliant joke in a really fun episode. A joke that only intensified attempts to unmask The Stig once and for all.

I Am Blessed

Have you ever noticed that people who complain are never happy? And chances are, if you hang around them very long, you won’t be, either. Complaining cuts you off from happiness, among a few other things, like prosperity and healing, for example.

Imagine what it must be like for God to hear a complainer’s prayer, let’s listen in for a moment: Oh God, don’t you know my family treats me like dirt? I work my fanny off for them and never get any appreciation…EVER! And do you know what my sister did to me?? Not to mention that I work way too many hours for a lot less than others get paid. God, why don’t you ever bless me? Why don’t you ever……

Naruto Manga Chapter 507

Naruto was useless in Naruto Chapter 506 due to an ankle injury from showing-off too much. LOL! But, the prediction for 'Youth Time: Gai (or Guy) vs. Kisame finally came to fruition.

The unlikely ally that hit Kisame in Chapter 505 turned out to be Sahemada. Kisame tries to escape but Guy goes after him. You can read all about that HERE and HERE. But it is worth noting that, even after all the goofiness of Gai, we may see the potential of Gai's real power. That and the fight between Gai and Kisame on the next Naruto Chapter. Who's going to win the Gai Vs. Kisame match?

Read Naruto 507.

As a way of encouraging Christians to read the Bible, Chris Juby, a worship leader at King's Church in Durham City, has started an endeavor on the popular social network, Twitter.

Everyday for a targetted three years, Chris Juby will be tweeting summaries of the Bible--all 66 books and 1,189 chapters--on Twitter

Chris Juby said: 'It is my normal habit to read a chapter of the Bible each morning and I always read through from Genesis to Revelation.

'As I was coming to the end last time, I thought I needed a way of focusing my mind a little bit more on what I was reading.'

'I thought a summary would be a good way of doing this. I already use Twitter, so I thought I'd share my summaries.' while emphasizing, "My summaries are no substitute for the real thing."

The Royal Clock Tower In Mecca

For over 125 years, the world's time zones have been adjusted in accordance to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia hopes to change this with the Royal Mecca Clock Tower currently being built in Mecca which began ticking on the first day of Ramadan.

The Royal Mecca Clock Tower, which strikes a resemblance to both Big Ben's St Stephen’s Tower, and the Empire State Building, is six times larger than London's Big Ben and is the world's biggest clock tower. At a height of 1,970 feet, it is also being recorded as the second tallest building in the world. The $800 million, Saudi royal family-funded clock project has four faces stretched 151 feet in diameter with a spire that is topped with a 75-foot wide golden crescent moon, and five times a day, 21,000 green and white LED bulbs flash as a reminder to pray. The surrounding complex of the massive clock is set to have seven towers in total, which will house hotels, shopping malls, and conference centers.

Manny Pacquiao is Yahoo! Sports Best Boxer

A few months after winning a congressional seat in the Philippines, Manny Pacquiao has won another election. Manny Pacquiao regained the top spot in the Yahoo! Sports boxing rankings from Floyd Mayweather Jr.

A lot of voters were dissapointed with Mayweather’s reluctance to fight Manny Pacquiao in what would have been the highlight of both boxers' careers. Mayweather let pass an opportunity to fight Pacquiao on Nov. 13, with one of his advisors even denying negotiations had ever taken place despite the fact that promoter Bob Arum and HBO Sports president Ross Greenburg insisted they had. Hence, Pacquiao got 21 first-place votes and Mayweather 15.

Shaq is and always will be a big part of the NBA. A very huge, and I mean literally, void will be left should the 7 foot 1 inch tall center and 4 time NBA champion decide to call it quits  before the upcoming 2010-2011 NBA season.

There's nothing embarrassing about this sermon (others call it a motivational rap) though. It lasts less than two minutes, but it is power-packed, spiritually sound, and actually refreshing. A sermon everybody can relate to. Do check it out, it will only take 100 seconds of your time now...
