Pinoy Senator Tito Sotto’s Plagiarized Speech Got the Attention of Blogger Sarah
Thursday, August 16th, 2012
Senator Tito Sotto’s “Maalaala mo kaya” worthy performance on “Turno en Contra” on the Reproductive Health is plagued with issue such as plagiarism. Obviously, since he got some lazy staff to write the speech for him, this leaves him no choice to assume responsibility for it. Instead of apologizing for this embarrassing lapse, he vehemently denied it the way seasoned politicians do. I wonder if that staff will be expecting some Christmas bonus this year?
Anyway, all this hoopla got the attention of the blogger Sarah who originaly wrote the article. Apparently, she wasn’t amused. Read about it here. You guys can stop apologizing on behalf of our idiotic senator, she seems cool about it. The good thing about it is that it got the attention on the serious side effects the pill might cause in the long run. The fight for RH Bill still continues and hope that it will indeed gets passed.
Below is a comparison of Sotto’s speech and Sarah’s blog:
Sotto’s speech:
“According, to Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride MD, the use of the pill also causes severe gut dysbiosis. What is worse, drug induced gut imbalance is especially intractable and resistant to treatment either with probiotics or diet change.”Sarah’s blog:
“According, to Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride MD, use of other drugs such as the Pill also cause severe gut dybiosis. What’s worse, drug induced gut imbalance is especially intractable and resistant to treatment either with probiotics or diet change.”Sotto’s speech:
“Gut imbalance brought on through use of the pill negatively impacts the ability to digest food and absorb nutrients. As a result, even if a woman eats spectacularly well during pregnancy, if she has been taking oral contraceptives for a period of time beforehand, it is highly likely that she and her baby are not reaping the full benefits of all this healthy food as the lack of beneficial flora in her gut preclude this from occurring.”Sarah’s blog:

These toxins leak into the woman’s bloodstream and they have the potential to cross the placenta. Therefore, gut dysbiosis exposes the fetus to toxin.”Sarah’s blog:

Thursday, May 31st, 2012
Who would have thought that Zhang Ziyi’s body would cost 2 million Singapore dollars per night. Now that’s really shocking! I wouldn’t be so surprised if she had high profile affair with some powerful figure but to spend a night for that cash seems very extravagant. Now I know why she nabbed the role for Memoirs of a Geisha. She truly lives up to her screen alter ego.
According to various sources that have been rampant on the matter, Zhang has been barred from leaving the country, where she is currently shooting “The Grandmasters”, while the investigations are ongoing. This may explain why she has refused to appear at the Cannes Film Festival, where her upcoming movie “Dangerous Liaisons” is contending. She has also refused an invitation to present the Palme d’Or award at the festival.
Zhang’s involvement in the scandal with Bo, was believed to have been arranged by another government official and an associate of Bo, Xu Ming, the founder and chairman of the Dailian Shide Group.The actress had agreed to sleep with Bo for 10 million Yuan (approximately SG$2 million) and they had at least 10 encounters in between 2004 to 2007, according to the Chinese media.
Zhang was also believed to have been introduced to other officials through Xu, and slept with them to rake in about 700 million Yuan (SG$141.7 million) from the transactions that took place between 2004 and 2007.

Saturday, May 19th, 2012What’s with the religious groups in Philippines following Indonesia’s footstep in getting Lady Gaga’s concert cancelled. Her infamous video Judas was released a year ago already and you don’t hear a peep from these people. Lady Gaga already came to Philippines few times already and you don’t hear any complaints about her. Oh well, that makes her tickets sell even better enough to extend her stay for another day.
Posted in Local News | No Comments »MANILA, Philippines—Religious groups on Friday urged that the Manila concert of American pop singer Lady Gaga be banned to prevent her from influencing young Filipinos.
Catholic leaders called on followers of the Church to boycott Lady Gaga’s concert, which, they said, would promote godlessness.
“Her attitude seems to promote godlessness, offensive to any religion,” Sorsogon Bishop Arturo Bastes, a member of the Permanent Council of the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines, told reporters.
Bastes said some of Lady Gaga’s songs were blasphemous. “People have the duty to discern the quality of entertainment,” he said. “Christians must exercise self-censorship to avoid shows that are harmful to their faith.”
Manila Auxiliary Bishop Broderick Pabillo called on the government to follow the leads of South Korea and Indonesia and ban Lady Gaga’s concert.
“We should protest that,” Pabillo said in an interview on Church-run Radio Veritas. “Indonesia and South Korea did not allow that concert because their governments saw that she is not a good influence, so I hope it will be the same here.”Source: Inq7
Miss Universe Now Allows Transgender to Enter All Because of Jenna Talackova
Wednesday, April 11th, 2012
At first I totally applaud Miss Universe Canada committee for kicking out this man who lied about not being a naturally born woman. Now this shemale threatened to sue. He can whine all about gender equality and such but this doesn’t change the fact that he was born male. No amount of surgery and hormones will turn him into a woman EVER!
Donald Trump’s Miss Universe contest on Tuesday threw open its doors to transgender models, allowing men who have had a sex change the chance to be crowned the world’s most beautiful woman.
The transgender contestants will be able to strut their stuff in the international beauty championships starting in 2013, while pioneering sex-change model Jenna Talackova will be allowed to take part this year, said gay and transgender rights organization GLAAD.
“The Miss Universe Organization today follows institutions that have taken a stand against discrimination of transgender women including the Olympics,” said Herndon Graddick, a spokesman for the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation.

Tuesday, April 10th, 2012
The greed of Henry Sy’s SM corporation is unbelievable. Despite so many protests from people of Baguio on cutting off the pine trees to make way for their ugly parking lot. But what can you expect from a man and his family who profited from exploiting their own employees with shorter contract, few benefits and low pay. These soulless creatures are all about money and exploitation. They don’t give a damn about their potential customers since they’re confident that people will still patronize their shitty malls. You can go there, use their resources, just don’t spend a single cent on them and their establishments. I’m even hoping for a landslide on their building, to teach them a lesson.
They also had the nerve of supporting Earth Hour yet went on cutting trees. Haay I’m running out of vile adjectives to describe these evil corporate bastards. Thank goodness we still have people like Carlos Celdran who helped spread awareness of what’s happening. For now, trees are a bit safe when a TEPO has been granted. I hope that the people of Baguio will also BOYCOTT their local government for allowing this to happen.

Friday, March 23rd, 2012
It seems that kidnappers are on the prowl but this time with the popularity of CCTV cameras everywhere, one can now see the face of them evil bastards. One attempted kidnapping happened at a supermart in Sucat. Fortunately the yaya was a quick thinker and didn’t buy the guy’s request to leave the boy with him and give the piece of paper to the mom. Hope that this would serve as warning to parents with kids to exercise caution when bringing their kids in public places.
Posted in Local News | No Comments »Yesterday (03/20/12) afternoon, my wife, son and Yaya went to buy some groceries at a supermarket in Sucat and while my wife was lining up to pay, Yaya and my son went to the “Funhouse” arcade near the food court. While my son was playing with a video game, a suspicious bald man, around 5’10”, with medium built and decent clothing approached yaya and was instructing her to give a piece of paper to my wife and leave my son with him. Yaya refused to follow his instruction so he insisted by bribing her with money. She continued to refuse with a louder voice which drew attention so the man walked away.
She immediately told my wife what happened and when they were about to go home, they saw him exiting the supermarket. Before they could point him out, he got into his car and drove away.We reported the incident and they allowed us to view their surveillance cams. There we clearly saw that from the time yaya and my son entered the arcade, the man kept following them at a certain distance. Before he approached them, he made a phone call and started to converse with yaya.
Please take extra caution when you’re out with your children. Always keep them close where you can see them…no matter where you are. Beware of kidnappers!
20 Reason Why I Dislike Philippines Viral Video
Thursday, March 15th, 2012
This viral videos has been making the rounds on facebook about a foreign guy candidly talking why he dislikes the Philippines. Actually I smell this video as a viral video trap for channelfix beta. You know how pinoys are making a fuzz whenever some ignorant foreigner makes careless statement about this country. If you think about it, the guys behind the video actually love this country more than any other pinoys. They see both sides of this country and still accept it as it is. If you head to the channel fix website, you’ll find the videos engaging.

Filipino Youtube sensation Christopher Lao is now a Lawyer
Wednesday, February 29th, 2012
I presume that Christopher Lao is in cloud 9 when he was “Informed” that he passed the bar exam. Good to hear that he bounced back from the flood drive-in incident. He has finally accepted his infamous meltdown and is ok with the jokes. Good luck to him and his career as a lawyer. I’m sure he learned his lesson not to blame others for his own mistakes.
In case you have no idea who Christopher Lao is, he was an instant sensation when he drove his car straight into a waist deep flooded water. Instead of sheepishly admit his error, he proceed to rant how it’s everyone’s fault.
Posted in Local News | No Comments »Lao considers passing the bar a “wonderful blessing” after all the bullying he had to endure.
A graduate of the University of the Philippines College of Law, Lao has learned to embrace his new stature as a popular online figure. He also doesn’t mind being a joke topic.
In fact, he’ll use his online fame to pursue his advocacies in of course, cyber law.
“I want to have cybercrime laws, and prevent cyber bullying. As a lawyer, this time I would like to see good bills are legislated,” Lao said.
