Got a Mac? Get AppleCare!
is AppleCare worth it?
YES!!!
and for me its a WIN! WIN!
AppleCare’s main advantage is that it is an extended protection coverage by the original manufacturer.
This means that when you need service you should have fewer problems with getting a proper repair done and having the parts available. Apple is clearly the expert on its own products, so hardware and software support should be of high quality.
Why get AppleCare?
...and so
here i am protecting my 1year old MacBook Pro
*yipeeeee*
FYI: The AppleCare Protection Plan can only be purchased while your computer is still under its original one-year warranty. All covered systems and covered Apple peripherals must either be new or newly refurbished by Apple (Apple Certified Refurbished), or still under Apple’s limited warranty to qualify for Protection Plan coverage.

Oh Meat!
Jaws dropped when Lady Gaga took the stage at the 2010 Video Music Awards last night wearing meat from head to toe. And, surprise — her VMA meat dress was made with REAL MEAT! Franc Fernandez, the Los Angeles-based designer/artist behind the dress, confirmed that it was real meat when we caught up with him this morning. But now that we know it's REAL, we're left with so many more burning questions for Franc Fernandez! Did it smell? Was it bloody? Was it heavy? Was Lady Gaga comfortable? So, we chatted with designer Franc Fernandez tonight to find out all the juicy details. Find out everything you ever wanted to know about Lady Gaga's meat dress below!
Franc Fernandez: "I was contacted by her stylist, Nicola Formichetti, and they had already shot the picture with Terry Richardson in the meat bikini for Vogue Hommes Japan. They told me that they wanted to make a main dress [out of meat], so I did it."
What kind of meat was it?
"I don't know what it's called in English, but in Argentina, it's called matambre. I went to my butcher to get it, in Los Angeles in the valley. He's the butcher that my family goes to. I'm trying to get him a signed picture of it."
How many pounds of meat did you buy?
"I bought a lot of meat because I wanted extra. I would say more than 50 pounds of meat. Is that a lot?"
How heavy was it?
"It was fairly heavy. She said it was the most comfortable dress of the night, though. I'm guessing it weighed around forty pounds. It's built on a corset, so the weight is distributed on her chest, so it's not like it's hanging off her neck."
Was it comfortable?
"She said so."
Were there leftovers?
"Not very much, no."
Did it leave a blood trail?
"No, not at all. It's actually very clean meat, very sturdy and strong and doesn't run at all. It's the meat you use to make a roast, where you roll it in a tortilla and put it in the oven. Hence, the shoes — that's why they were wrapped in butcher twine."
Did it smell?
"Gaga said it smelled good. It had a sweet smell. It hadn't been sitting out for more than five hours. And it's not a heavy gross meat."
Did you have to keep it refrigerated?
"While it was being made it was refrigerated, [worked on] and then refrigerated. It took a span of two days on and off. Maybe three with sourcing and getting materials and everything."
Will this dress "go bad"?
"Well, yes. And it's a dress that will dry out. The meat dries out, rather than rotting. It becomes jerky. But, it shouldn't be worn again."
"I just did the meat. You can't really design something that we're making out of organic pieces. It's like 'This piece can go here,' and you look at the cuts you have and you drape it."
How do you drape meat?
"I've done some draping, it just seemed logical to me. The way I was doing it, nothing about it was much of a challenge, except for the time it took. I had helping hands that were great. It was just sewing through meat, which is a little weird, but it's not rocket science. I just used regular string, some stronger thread, nothing unusual."
What did it feel like on Lady Gaga's body?
"There was a corset but the rest of it was skin on skin. Initially it was cold, but then it warmed up. Not too much, though. She said she wasn't warm at all, especially under those lights, it didn't heat up."
Did Gaga have to be sewn into the dress?
"She went in through the bottom. Some of it she was sewn into. I was backstage."
Did you treat the meat with any preservatives?
"No, not at all."
How did you transport the dress?
"I'm in Los Angeles. So, I had a little cooler that I carried it in — its own little coffin."
When Lady Gaga sat down, did the meat rub onto the chair upholstery?
"Well, it shouldn't have because it's not a sticky meat. It's not a messy dress at all, surprisingly. But I didn't see the seat after she sat on it. But I've been handling that meat for two days and there is nothing messy about it."
What would the dress feel like? Like for Cher and those who touched it?
"It would feel like meat I suppose. It's all natural."
What happens to the meat dress now?
"The dress will be put in an archive with all of her dresses. The Gaga Archives, I suppose. It won't last, that's the beauty of it. When it is brought out again, hopefully it will be in a retrospective, and it will be a different dress, which is the best thing. I like the idea of it changing and evolving into something else. My butcher said I could taxidermy it if I wanted it to stay the way it is, and I didn't want to stay that way. Seems like a waste to keep it that way, than to watch it change."
How did you come up with the idea of butcher strings on her shoes?
"I was referencing the whole meat theme. I bought the strings at a butcher supply store."
What were the crystal pieces on her meat purse?
"It’s an antique brooch that was applied to the meat."
Gaga said this dress represents that we shouldn't be treated like a piece of meat. What does this dress represent for you?
"I have to agree with her. I just think it looked great."
Where is it now?
"I'm not sure. She has people who handle everything, so it's with them."
Would you create this look again?
"I think it's just that—it's just the meat dress. There's not going to be meat dresses in the future. This was made for a specific purpose. It's what it is."
When you saw her wear this dress, what went through your mind?
"She's wearing my meat dress! It just looked great on her and she made it look easy and things come very naturally to her."
What was your inspiration?
Franc Fernandez: "I was contacted by her stylist, Nicola Formichetti, and they had already shot the picture with Terry Richardson in the meat bikini for Vogue Hommes Japan. They told me that they wanted to make a main dress [out of meat], so I did it."

Do You Hate Someone?
A VERY NICE STORY WITH A GOOD MORAL.
Please go through...
A kindergarten teacher has decided to let her class play a game.
The teacher told each child in the class to bring along a plastic bag containing a few potatoes.
Each potato will be given a name of a person that the child hates, So the number of potatoes that a child will put in his/her plastic bag will depend on the number of people he/she hates. So when the day came, every child brought some potatoes with the name of the people he/she hated. Some had 2 potatoes; some 3 while some up to 5 potatoes. The teacher then told the children to carry with them the potatoes in the plastic bag wherever they go (even to the toilet) for 1 week.
Days after days passed by, and the children started to complain due to the unpleasant smell let out by the rotten potatoes. Besides, those having 5 potatoes also had to carry heavier bags. After 1 week, the children were relieved because the game had finally ended...
The teacher asked: "How did you feel while carrying the potatoes with you for 1 week?". The children let out their frustrations and started complaining of the trouble that they had to go through having to carry the heavy and smelly potatoes wherever they go.
Then the teacher told them the hidden meaning behind the game. The teacher said: "This is exactly the situation when you carry your hatred for somebody inside your heart. The stench of hatred will contaminate your heart and you will carry it with you wherever you go. If you cannot tolerate the smell of rotten potatoes for just 1 week, can you imagine what is it like to have the stench of hatred in your heart for your lifetime???"
Moral of the story: Throw away any hatred for anyone from your heart so that you will not carry sins for a lifetime.
Forgiving others is the best attitude to take!
True love is not loving a perfect person but loving an imperfect person perfectly!!

My Asthma Story Bow!
Dear Asthma,
Please! Let go of me.. it's been 17 long years. :'( and counting?
--
Do you have an allergy to food? If so, is there an asthma diet that can help you reduce symptoms?
(Penguin Nebulizer)
i wish i had one of these back then. :)
but never will i wish EON will have these neither
oh please Gahd Forbid!
Anyhow back to topic.
I’ve had enough with my allergies and asthma. Frankly, I don’t even know if I officially have allergies, and if I do, what I am allergic to. When I went to my doctor a couple years ago, I was told that I have a mild case of asthma. But, nothing really regarding an allergy.
It’s time for me to start doing something about it, because it is a life-hindering issue. While I don’t have problems every day, I do often have issues with coughing attacks that interrupt my day, and are frankly embarrassing when around other people.
When I research this article, it was just as much for my own good as providing information for other asthma and food allergy sufferers.
If you have issues with allergies and/or asthma, and you’re not quite sure what to do about it other than “throw medicine” at the problem, you need to know what foods trigger attacks. While there is no diet that has been proven to cure asthma, the following are some of the foods known to trigger attacks:
Info credit: Ask The Doctor
Most people with food allergies experience symptoms such as rash, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. In my case, I get an itchy skin, throat, cough uncontrollably, and even sometimes experience a closing of my throat.
My advice to my fellow Asthmatics: Other than going to an allergy specialist, the only way you can beat a food allergy or asthma attack brought on by food is to eliminate the trigger foods. If you can do without all of them, Great! If you want to narrow it down, maybe reintroduce one food at a time to see how you react.
So... again to you ASTHMA!!! Please please go away!!!
I don't need you in my life!:(

"Pagbabago"
As of today I’m 16mo.s and 10days old Mom to my son EON
and having my little one really CHANGED my life big time.
Well this question crack up my mind:
WHAT IS THE ESSENCE OF BEING A WOMAN?
This question was asked to Ms. Universe '94 Miss India Sushmita Sen. Sushmita's famous answer: "Just being a woman is God's gift. The origin of a child is a mother, a woman. She shows a man what sharing, caring, and loving is all about. That is the essence of a woman."
It was the question that always makes me think and thank God for giving me my wonderful gift. Now that I'm a mother, I’m even more excited to wake up each day of my life. Hugging, Cuddling, Kissing and Smelling my angel’s breath is one of my favorite daily routine of my every morning. Next in line? Watching My husband Erik while he sleeps. Seeing him every morning on the other side of our bed, waking him up with my huge hug is a YES WAY!
On the other hand I just want to share this…
When I was a little girl I’m always praying to Papa God, asking him to grant my
ULTIMATE wish “for me to have that chance of seeing my DADDY”
My daddy left us when I was 8 mo.s old. I don’t even know how he looks like,
all I know is his name and that’s it! and SAD TO SAY
I don’t even have a picture of him. What hurts me even more back then is
when my mom doesn’t even want to talk about him anymore.
But come November of 2009 our good Lord finds a way for me to reach my
Dad and well the rest is a HISTORY!!!
Until this very moment I still can’t believe, all these CHANGES is happening in my crazy life. After so many years, NOW i can say that I’m so complete.
ATLEAST NOW I HAVE 3 OF THE MOST IMPORTANT MAN IN MY LIFE.
What else could I ask for? I’m loving the fact that now i HAVE a Father!!! And i’m loving my Dad big time!!! I want to thank my husband for always being there for me and for the nth time i’m loving him more this time, he is the best Father Eon could ever have. I never even imagine a life without them.
And for our little one I’M VERY MUCH INLOVE WITH YOU!
Rest assured that I would do everything for you.
I will try to be the BEST MOM that I can be.
MOMMY will never leave your side no matter what.
I also know that PAPA GOD and your Guardian ANGELS will always protect and love you dearly.
I love my life.
I will embrassed all these changes forever...
