The moon shines but it took cover(quickly) from the clouds. shucks..must be nice to have captured in on telescope or a camera lens..saw it when I went to the garage(cos sis came home) and looked up at the black sky. I think the universe is one big piece of great eye finds. :) Alrightie I'm gonna update my journal and I'm blogging off(cos I don't feel like multitasking). Geez I blog intermmitently. At least I blog with sense! Hahaha..yay!.well, I think do! :p. Wohoo it's Six Feet Under in a few minutes!
Nokia..a disappointment?
Maybe it's rivals are giving them hell? or maybe people want something new from the largest mobile phone company? Oh well, just reacting to Nokia's forecast of disappointing sales. Here, Nokia sales are big more than that of any other phone handset company. But I dunno, I have no facts to link and to verify that but I don't think I need to. It's pretty obvious if one resides here in this part of the world.

The dangers they face

linked via duyan full story from here
Media groups say they are disturbed by the rising tide of killings in a country that prides itself on having the freest press in Southeast Asia....the Brussels-based International Federation of Journalists said the Philippines was "in danger of becoming the new Colombia as one of the world's most dangerous places to practise journalism".

Yeah..better do something to protect them journalists..here or wherever else they report.

This is what Themeparkinsider says thats...Clearly, a dangerous pattern has been established at Disneyland. Since former Disneyland President Paul Pressler assumed control of the resort and began cutting costs, fans have complained about poor maintenance at the park.

Yeeeouch! Mickey Mouse and company must be sratching their heads.

Update of the blog Disney is to offer free counseling to the vicitims of accident. Uh huh rightly so!

Forbidden Love in time of War (in IRAQ) and of Differences...

from Philadephia Inquirer....

It unfolds amid daily attacks on U.S. soldiers, car bombings of civilian targets, and massive demonstrations by residents demanding that fo
reign troops leave their country. But the letters Jassm and Velez have written each other since May describe a vastly different relationship between American and Iraqi...Read rest of the article here

What Weblogging has done to people and journalism

Weblogging is part of that process... This is an exciting time to be engaged with this explosive community of people. Across the world, faster and more randomly than anyone has yet been able to track and collate, webloggers are linking, posting, trackbacking, commenting, aggregating and moblogging their way through the first days of the 21st Century READ MORE OF THIS FROM Plasticbag.org

Uhm, next I think will see a growth in blogging via SMS too..soon

Ugh! Teen hackers angst
This news... Worm Blaster Busted but still it's causing mayhem to many users.. And nothing just blogging that piece of tech news
Saddam's long gone but terror continues
It is believed that Al Qaeda's involved in the recent bombings In Iraq. Gee, no more Saddam but foreign elements appears to have an eye on the country. Heck, the Bombing was carefully well planned. The US might've free the people of Iraq from the brutal hold of Saddam but the problems doesn't seem to stop(and so are the killings). And the people of Iraq still suffers.

Blah

Back...Hehe..I'm am visting the yahoo spots news and man, that Croat loser's comments about Andy Roddick is dumb!..Grrr! Freaking sour graping dude! Good riddance to him! He lost! Heh!
Life and a blogging thoughts
Classic pictures are really really nice. I'm blogging, I'm browsing..I gotta blog off now!
On your mark, ready..set..gooooo..
Wow, new technology on the move..literally hehe. The news says The hope is ultimately to develop autonomous technology that will replace people with machines in many dangerous situations—and save money at the same time.

Gee thats great! Brilliant minds must come up with good projects and looks like the one mentioned above is good..don't forget though it's a race! :)

Snap elections?
President. Arroyo said their (meaning the oppostion and others..*shrugs) attempt to bring her down is "fultile". My Mom thinks that one of the Senator is silly(for really wanting to have snap election) cos there's only months to go before we're gonna have the Presidential Elections(May 2004). I dont think you could call snap elections with that remaining months. Hahaha. But I dunno..Im no expert. I'm just a girl blogging thoughts within my head! :) I don't even vote! Hehe :).

BBC vs Blair and the gang

The Guardian(reg req'd) says Blair and BBC refuse to give an inch Blair said he would have resigned (ny times r.r) if there were any truths to the report.

Media and Politic(ian)s always seems to be in a bind about certain things.You never really know if somebody's the telling the truth and if there's cover up. One thing for sure, people would want to know whats the real story.
Just an update... Okay, so Blair didn't resign but his Director of Communications, Alastair Campbell did...quit his post.
