We all know that cats and dogs are not the best of friends. But this extraordinary tale, is quite heart warming... In Sydney Australia, a dog has been hailed as a hero when he risk his life trying to save newborn kittens from a fire in his house.

Fire fighters said that when they arrived at the scene, Leo (the dogs name) was still found alongside the kittens and refused to leave the house in spite of the thick smoke from the blazing fire. He didn't even think that he would also have died, he just thought of the kittens. Luckily the firefighters came to the rescue.

Leo and the kittens have all survived the ordeal and the firefighters got close to the Leo which they nicknamed 'Smoky'. Full Article Source

A Cause Of Alarm...


I have seen and read a lot of blogs but only a few issues affect me the most. This blog that I have just recently stumbled is about the US-Mexican Border. How illegal immigrants dangerously cross the border in hopes of landing a decent paying job in America. BorderMovie Blog is a blog about a documentary film that shows how dangerous crossing the borders would be. Both for the Mexicans and Americans. There are also a handful of American families who own ranches near the border that gets affected by this. Their children play in their backyard only to find some skeletal remains of bodies scattered everywhere. They constantly hear shots fired and would only wonder what they would find in their backyard the next day.

It is not only these families who are affected. All the people in America are. Drug traffickers, murderers and even terrorist have freely crossed these borders. They are living legally in all the different states of America.

Also people from Mexico who cross the border illegally are in danger. They put their lives at risk by trying to pass the border. Most of them don't make it. Women, children and men die mostly by dehydration.

I hope the people behind Border Movie would get noticed. Let us help spread this, so that the US government would act...

Taking Great Photos...


I enjoy taking photos of different subjects. It is my personal hobby. I use the photos to make scrapbooks and post it on my online profiles. Just recently I want to really learn how to take professional looking photos. I searched around the internet for some guide and I have found a photoblog that is useful for those who want to learn a trick or two about taking great pictures.

A1 Phototips is a blog for photography amateurs and enthusiasts that wants to learn more about the craft. It is a useful website especially to those who are just beginning this hobby. I have taken notes of some of the techniques myself. So I am going to take photos of my pets first as my models...

Taking great photos is also great for your blog. You can express more if you have pictures to show. Taking photos is as easy as point and click, but taking great photos need more techniques and a bit of learning...



Found this online from comedyplus.blogspot.com. And it somehow made me laugh and forgot that I was mad about something.





The Evolution Of Man


I have stumbled upon a really funny photo. Courtesy of joe-ks.com.

It illustrates about how most people get huge by eating too much fast food. More and more children and adult's are becoming obese, having no exercise and the right diet. But some say that fast food is much more popular because it is cheaper than healthy foods and it is also readily available. No need to go to the market and cook it. But if you try to analyze it, fast food could cause potential harm to your health in the long run. You have to make the right choice now, not tomorrow.

Eat healthy, live healthy and be happy...



British teenagers who tried to snatch the purse of a Grandmother got the surprise of their lives. The 68 yr old lady who happens to be a former cross-country champion gave them a run for their money and chased after them. The grandmother Janet Lane, was waiting for a friend when one of the three teenagers grabbed her purse containing her months pension.

The boys thought I was a easy catch, so they just approached me and grabbed my bag, she said. She jumped right away and ran after them. Afterwards she caught one by the collar. The boy was so afraid that he managed to get away from the firm grip and let go of the bag.

The retired nurse, still keeps in shape by swimming and walking. The police are investigating the incident and advised the public not to follow Lane's example.Full article source

Will give you an update on Monday about the results... Happy weekend...

...

This is definitely one of those days where I can't think of anything to write... I am really tired. We bought stocks for my friends store. We were out for a few hours. Walking and choosing what products to sell... I miss having my massage... Update tomorrow...



Yesterday, my friend Rachel and I went to their house. Her father was there lying on the bed placed at the living room. All of the people there were just passing by him, completely ignoring what his current condition. Rachel and I went out for a while to go buy some food. When we got back to their house, everyone there was panicked. Rachel's father whom I fondly call Uncle, is acting strangely. He kept on laughing then suddenly gets mad. Then he collapsed. He was white all over.

We have administered first aid treatment and had him steamed in the portable sauna because he was constantly complaining pain on his stomach. I massaged him using essential oils. We gave him hot milk and gave him a sponge bath.

He later told me that he haven't been eating for 3 days already. His children are too busy doing their own business. Just passes by him. He felt alone and so depressed. That he thought of ending his life by not eating.

I really felt bad for him... I told Rachel about it, she felt so guilty. They organized a meeting. To discuss what care they could give their father, now that he is old and needs them more than ever.

I just hope I have instilled good values to my daughter. One day, we will all be old. Will there be someone to take good care of us? Show us love and attention? Just form lasting and loving relationships with those important to you... I surely don't want to end up in the elderly home someday... How about you?

Sibling Rivalry...

All of us have probably experienced rivalry among our siblings. Whether it is the attention of our parents or each others achievements. I have 3 brothers, the eldest and the only daughter... My brother who is next to me is the one I am constantly having problems with. He is 4 years my junior. Although we don't argue or fight that much, I just hate it when he thinks that he is loved more by our dad. We are both children of our mom and dad and our other 2 brothers are my mothers son from her boyfriend after our parents separated.

Back to the story. Our dad, still supports us financially. When I was still studying, Dad, pays for my tuition and allowances. Now that I have finished schooling, My dad then supported my brothers education.

Now that Dad, sends money to him, he thinks he is loved more than me. I really don't mind that much, because I know it is not true. He always brings it up, that he is more favored than me, to a point that it becomes so annoying.

Until at what point should we be patient with our brothers? What if they hurt our feelings? I don't want to be mad at him, but I hope he changes his ways. It is not all the time that our dad will be there to support him financially. He spends money like a king... Like theres no tomorrow. He did not enroll at college. Just spent his money to his friends. I hope one day he will realize what he is doing is wrong.
