PHILIPPINES – Plastic and glass bottles are used as building materials as they replace concrete blocks to build new schools. Yes, plastic and glass bottles! What’s even more remarkable is that the classrooms are twice the size when build with the plastic and glass bottles. It always makes me happy when plastic bottles end up anywhere but in our oceans but using it as building materials is unbelievable. The plastic bottle classrooms are much more [...]

I recently bought a kindle fire, mainly so that I can read books more easily instead of buying paperbacks that I have no room for on my book shelves. Kindle is known as the e-reader device and I also wanted a semi tablet experience. The kindle fire seemed to be a great choice and more importantly for a great price. I’ll be elaborating on what I believe are the Pros and Cons about the Kindle [...]

Don’t worry, the school is not doing this as a campaign against fashion but merely to prevent the students to smuggle contraband into school. Yes, the teens are using the Ugg-boots as means to sneak stuff into school. Illegal stuff like joints, sh-rooms, and so forth. Unbelievable! The school has send letters out to parents explaining that Uggs were not allowed anymore in school as of Monday and it also gave explanations why. The letter [...]

CONNECTICUT – A 4-year-old in pre-kindergarten brought marijuana to school. At snack time, the boy started to pull out several baggies out of his bag. These were filled with cannabis. The teachers believe that he didn’t know what he brought to school and probably just thought that they were snack bags. The school immediately contacted the police so that they can find out where the weed came from. Although, it’s no wonder that he probably [...]

I for one saw this coming. The FBI has caused an immeasurable damage to millions of Megaupload users. As hard as it is to believe, not every Megaupload users were uploading copyright infringement files. Many people would put their personal files on Megaupload as backup and now….poof…it’s all gone.

ISREAL – A one-year-old baby was found chewing on a head of a 30cm snake by his mother. It’s unbelievable that this very poisonous snake didn’t even bite the baby once, hence the theory that he must’ve been asleep when the toddler found him. The toddler’s mother was preparing his milk and was looking at him occasionally. After she was done, she looked at him again and saw him chewing on a snake. The neighbors [...]

I believe most of you know that the FBI seized and shut down the Megaupload file-hosting site. Recently I made a “Top five alternative list” to Megaupload alternatives. It included Fileserve and Filesonic, but I believe that after what happened to Megaupload they got scared and immediately stopped file-sharing immediately. Some of these filehosts are blocked for U.S. visitors but some aren’t. Now the FBI is trying to shutdown all file-hosting websites for good. We [...]
