Ferdinand Dimadura's Chicken A La Carte

Have you seen a short film that touches your heart and open your minds to the real world? Such a short one indeed that will make you asks yourself “Why?”

February 2006 during the 56th Berlin International Film Festival, filmmakers were invited for a short film competition with a theme of “Food, Taste and Hunger.” There were 3,600 filmmakers who submitted their entries and only 32 of them were fortunate to have their films screened at the Berlinale Talent Campus. This particular short film topped the competition after being adjudged as the “Most Popular Short Film.”

Chicken A La Carte made by a certain Ferdinand Dimadura is among the other short films reflecting the poverty and hardships of children and families around the world. It’s worth watching and best serve as an eye opener especially for Filipinos. My husband told me about this video and the family watched it yesterday night. We wanted to show to our kids how lucky they are for what they have now as compared to kids on the film. But of course as a mother and as a Filipino, that must be ended and great changes must happen.

This coming May 2010 election let change come to the Philippines. Change not only for our self and family but to the Philippines as a country. Vote for leaders we think will bring about the good and great changes to our lives and not allow leaders to come in power who are nothing but selfish and heartless ones. Vote wisely and never let happen to ask ourselves again “Why?”

Ruffa Gutierrez & John Lloyd Cruz's LA pics, friends in love?

Is love really in the air for Ruffa Gutierrez and John Lloyd Cruz??? This is one of the hottest issues in local showbiz especially after Ruffa confirmed the pictures taken while going inside a L.A. Hotel. Although the actress, a mother of 2 kids and a former wife of a business magnate Yilmaz Bektas, denied that there is something especial (LOVE) between them people tends to believe what they see than heard. Also, she added that she’s just being accommodating to JLC.

Love knows no boundaries. It could blossom between two people different in physical appearance or status in life like them. Ruffa is already a mother while John Lloyd is one of the most loved and sought bachelors in town. Only Ruffa and John Lloyd knew the real status of their relationship and if there is really LOVE for each other, let’s just respect it and wish them the best of luck.

Family, friends and people from all walks of life continue to express their support, love and prayers to former President Corazon “Cory” Aquino.

AEG Live: Michael Jackson video days before his death

I know many things have been said and blogged about the King of Pop Michael Jackson after the news about his death broke out. The world is in deep sorrow and grief after knowing the sudden death of this legendary icon in the field of entertainment. The media has been very busy covering the latest events surrounding the death and commemoration of MJ. Here in the Philippines, MJ fans are truly devastated with his sudden death.

More than his songs, what I admired from MJ most is the unique soft voice he has and for me a true total performer. Behind being one of the famous and well-loved artists in the world plus the several controversies he got involved is an empty person victimized by his past and the world’s admiration. But MJ is truly a performer that he can set aside the misery of his life when he starts to perform.

Concert promoters AEG Live for MJ concert in London just released the video showing how MJ vigorously practicing his song and dance routine last June 23 at Staples Center in Los Angeles. The promoter is giving a full ticket refund but if I got a ticket for the said concert I guess I will choose to keep it. That will be a great souvenir from one of the world’s true performer.

Farewell MJ!!!

Lemongrass Tea: Herbal remedy for cancer

Here comes another informative and interesting message I got from my inbox. The message came from a friend and she shared me this study about LEMON GRASS (TANGLAD) with powerful anti-cancer properties.

I am familiar with the plant coz I used it when I make a “chicken turbo” for the family. Somebody even told me that I can put lemon grass into “chicken tinola” instead of ginger but I haven’t tried this one so far. But I never knew that the “Lemon Grass Tea” could cause cancer cells to commit suicide, as in self-destruction. This one is truly good news for everyone, sick or not. As we say prevention is better than cure. I think I’m gonna try to make a Lemon Grass Tea for my family.

I can’t post the exact content of the email because it is quite too long but here is the similar thread from the Associated Content. Check it out. Be aware and stay healthy.
