Madonna Decena in Brithish Got Talent

Another testament that Filipinos are among the most talented people in the world is Madonna Decena. On the second episode of Britain’s Got Talent season 2 (England’s version of America’s Got Talent), the 33-year-old single mom blew the judges and the audience away with her rendition of the Whitney Houston classic “I Will Always Love You.”
Trembling and a little unsure of herself, Madonna walked onto the stage and told everyone her reason for being there.

Six months ago she flew out to Britain in the hope of creating a better life for herself and two young daughters. Agonisingly she had to leave her precious children behind with their grandparents in the Philippines, until she had raised enough money to send for them.
Her rendition of I Will Always Love You brought a collective lump to the auditorium’s throat.
“I know you were singing that song for your babies” said a tearful Amanda.
This audition was no Holiday for Madonna, it was potentially life-changing, and when the panel told her she had made it to the next round… it was as if all her dreams had been answered, just Like A Prayer.


Watch her spectacular performance here...

Pinoy Big Brother Teen Plus First Eviction Night


The first round of nominations by the housemates has passed. Having spent a couple of weeks together, it was difficult for many to have to vote out a comrade, but it has to be done. Kevin was the only one who was sure of his status inside the house after winning immunity in the first Tandem Game with the guardians. Host for the night Luis Manzano announced Jieriel as the first nominee for eviction. Linda was the next and Josef followed suit. The nominations, however, did not end there. Automatic nominations were also dealt out by Kuya, caused by a violation of the voting out procedure. House rule #9 states that no one is allowed to discuss nominations outside the confession room, directly or implied. To prove this, a video of the clear violation was shown. Because of this, Priscilla and Valerie were added to the list of first nominees.



At first, the nominees seemed frozen in the moment of revelation, stripped of the ability to reason out and react to the news. After listening to Luis recap the list, though, the reality of leaving Kuya’s house began to sink in. Jieriel and Valerie couldn’t help the tears from falling. Given the chance to plead for their spot, Valerie apologized for having done the violation, but what worried her more was letting her mom down. Priscilla apologized as well, promising to mind the rules next time. Jieriel’s agitation was obvious as she spoke in rapid Visayan, pleading with her family, friends, acquaintances and the like to help her remain in the house. Josef still managed to smile, and left the decision to the viewers, saying that if they thought he should still be part of the housemates, to vote for him. Linda’s speech was condensed in one word: help.



Tension inside the house will definitely go up several notches this week, as the reality of being evicted is very much evident. Even more pressure is on the first 5 nominees: Jieriel, Linda, Josef, Priscilla and Valerie. How will the housemates be able to continue their camaraderie in the house? Will they now see the experience primarily as a competition? If so, what changes will occur in their words and actions? What strain does this put on the guardians? The most important question is: Who will be the first to be evicted in Kuya’s house? More reason to stay updated. Check out current goings-on through the blogs, headlines, or via watching Uber and PBB Teens Plus Primetime.

But sad to say Jayriel say goodbye

What is Photography?

The word "photography" comes from the French photographie which is based on the Greek words φως phos ("light"), and γραφίς graphis ("stylus", "paintbrush") or γραφή graphê ("representation by means of lines" or "drawing"), together meaning "drawing with light." Traditionally, the product of photography has been called a photograph, commonly shortened to photo.

Photographic cameras

camera or camera obscura is the image-forming device, and photographic film or a silicon electronic image sensor is the sensing medium. The respective recording medium can be the film itself, or a digital electronic or magnetic memory.Photographers control the camera and lens to "expose" the light recording material (such as film) to the required amount of light to form a "latent image" (on film) or "raw file" (in digital cameras) which, after appropriate processing, is converted to a usable image. Modern digital cameras replace film with an electronic image sensor based on light-sensitive electronics such as charge-coupled device (CCD) or complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) technology. The resulting digital image is stored electronically, but can be reproduced on paper or film.


Shutter speed
In photography, shutter speed is the length of time a shutter is open; the total exposure is proportional to this exposure time, or duration of light reaching the film or image sensor.

The following pictures are taken on April 03, 2008. This are some of the pictures
that I capture on 6:00 pm here in the Philippines. Please observed carefully each and every photo you can noticed some elements that surrounds the image.

Ramiele born in Saudi Arabia to her parent who is both Filipino, but an American Citizen at Marimar, Florida. She was nursing student in Florida and crue to her small business, she starts singing and singing when she was 12 on her cousin debut. Ramiele during her first time audition ning in Miami where she sang "Natural Woman" by Aretha Franklin amaze Randy Jackson and said "actually, your good and i was impress, you definitely have a big voice for a very cute small little girl", Paula says, "Ithink your fine singer and a fine performer", but Simon makes a joke to her and says," I think your agood singer, i don't think your a contemporary singer, i think you more than like a hotel singer". Ramiele found herself as lucky as she made through the American Idol season 7. Since, it was her auditioning, she wants to prove that she could be the first Filipino American Idol in AI histroy. Remember when jasmine failed to become an AI Idol, Camille who is another Filipina, who was eliminated on top 9 and Aj Tablado who has great teachnique and skills on Season 6, a guy that audition 5 times before and finally he made on top 24 but also failed and got eliminated. Now, as Ramiele is on top 9 we are hoping that she can made to final. Because she is a huge talent but she must choice the right song that suits her beautiful voice that will amaze America.

April's Fool Day

April Fools' Day or All Fools' Day is a holiday in its own right, a notable day celebrated in many countries on April 1. The day is marked by the commission of hoaxes and other practical jokes of varying sophistication on friends, enemies and neighbors, or sending them on fools' errands, the aim of which is to embarrass the gullible.
Origin

The origins of this custom are complex and a matter of much debate. It is likely a relic of the once common festivities held on the vernal equinox, which began on 25 March, old New Year's Day, and ended on 2 April.
Though 1 April appears to have been observed as a general festival in Great Britain in antiquity, it was apparently not until the beginning of the 18th century that the making of April-fools was a common custom. In Scotland the custom was known as "hunting the gawk," i.e. the cuckoo, and April-fools were "April-gawks," the cuckoo being a term of contempt, as it is in many countries.
One of the earliest connections of the day with fools is Chaucer's story the Nun's Priest's Tale (c.1400), which concerns two fools and takes place "thirty dayes and two" from the beginning of March, which is April 1. The significance of this is difficult to determine.
Europe may have derived its April-fooling from the French.[1] French and Dutch references from 1508 and 1539 respectively describe April Fools' Day jokes and the custom of making them on the first of April. France was one of the first nations to make January 1 officially New Year's Day (which was already celebrated by many), by decree of Charles IX. This was in 1564, even before the 1582 adoption of the Gregorian calendar (See Julian start of the year). Thus the New Year's gifts and visits of felicitation which had been the feature of 1 April became associated with the first day of January, and those who disliked or did not hear about the change were fair game for those wits who amused themselves by sending mock presents and paying calls of pretended ceremony on 1 April. In France the person fooled is known as poisson d'avril (April fish). This has been explained as arising from the fact that in April the sun quits the zodiacal sign of the fish. The French traditionally celebrated this holiday by placing dead fish on the backs of friends. Today, real fish have been replaced with sticky, fish-shaped paper cut-outs that children try to sneak onto the back of their friends' shirts. Candy shops and bakeries also offer fish-shaped sweets for the holiday.
Some Dutch also celebrate the 1st of April for other reasons. In 1572, the Netherlands were ruled by Spain's King Philip II. Roaming the region were Dutch rebels who called themselves Geuzen, after the French "gueux," meaning beggars. On April 1, 1572, the Geuzen seized the small coastal town of Den Briel. This event was also the start of the general civil rising against the Spanish in other cities in the Netherlands. The Duke of Alba, commander of the Spanish army could not prevent the uprising. Bril is the Dutch word for glasses, so on April 1, 1572, "Alba lost his glasses." The Dutch commemorate this with humor on the first of April.
