The ladies from the french band, L.E.J. - Lucie, Elisa and Juliette - recently sang many songs that are currently popular this summer, according to Time. In three minutes and 26 seconds, three French girls tossed all of our favorite songs from the summer into one of the coolest, edgiest mashups we've heard in awhile. The trio, Lucie, Elisa, and Juliette aka L.E.J ., begin with jams like Pharrell's "Freedom," then transition into "Lean On" and Rihanna's "Bitch Better Have My Money," all while playing the cello and the drum to back their ridiculously stunning voices. Plus, they remix in some French lyrics about halfway through and the whole thing gets astronomically cooler.
The team has been on the scene since at least the summer of 2014 when they sang Probz’ “Wave,” Stromae’s “Papaoutal,” and “Ta fete,” Sean Paul and Major Lazer’s “Come on to me,” Magic System’s
“Mamadou,” and “Magic In The Air,” Will.i.am’s
“Bang bang,” Cris Cab’s “Liar,” and Shakira’s
“Lalala.” according to the video’s YouTube description. The songs were beautifully compiled together, and viewers were truly amazed. And just when we thought it was over, they throw in a quick verse from OMI's "Cheerleader" sans instrumentals and boom, we're hooked. Check their video out! What do you think of their mash-up?

In one of the most unfortunate scenarios caught on security camera, an elevator from China experienced a faulty electrical problem which caused quite the scare for many people around the internet. It all happened when the man entered the elevator and the carriage seemingly fell behind him as soon as he stepped inside. It caused him to fell in between, seemingly getting stuck in the elevator holding on for dear life. For minutes he tries hanging on, until he finally slips and falls. This caused quite the scare for many people who saw the video, with more than 25,000 views and comments.
The safety of the passengers are of utmost importance in an elevator, and the establishment should be fully responsible for the incident that happened, and should be fully aware of the electrical faults should there be any to prevent mishaps like this from ever happening again. For people using elevators, observe caution to avoid incidents like this. Watch the video and see for yourself! Don't forget to leave a comment!

AlDub Fever Captures Global Attention! Watch As Americans Fawn Over AlDub!
When Joe Landolina was just a 17-year-old high school student, he discovered a breakthrough and developed a lifesaving compound from algae that stops bleeding in just seconds. Now, years after envisioning his work, he is now the owner of Brooklyn-based biotechnology company Suneris, and has started his idea on designing a polymer gel that can be injected at wound sites for immediate clotting. Within 15 seconds of application, VetiGel begins matching the composition of the surrounding tissues, reducing blood flow and sealing up injury. CEO and Co-founder Joe Landolina says he and his team designed VetiGel to be ubiquitous one day. Right now, however, tests on VetiGel have yet to involve human subjects. Their sights are first set on veterinarian clinics, where they can see how animal wounds seal up before ironing out any wrinkles as they approach human tissue. If all goes to plan, Suneris hopes to get FDA approval for the futuristic bandage and bring it to market.
All this is years away, of course. But that doesn’t erase Landolina’s visions of grandeur. “We’re definitely hoping this changes the way the world looks at wound care, not only stopping bleeds but being able to treat burns,” he said. “We could even apply this technology to the regeneration of organs one day.” While all of this is under works, it would be of great help one day if this band-aid goes into production and be of great help to the medicinal field.

His eyes evoke a poignant image, as he subtly tries to make a living for his family by selling pens, with the weight of his daughter and his whole family placed on his shoulders, visibly distressed. This humble man is Abdul Halim Attar, a Palestinian refugee from Yarmouk in Syria, and his daughter is Reem. Roaming the streets of Beirut armed with just pens to make money, his story has impacted people in ways many least expected. His hardwork caught the attention of Mr. Gissur Simonarson, who runs the website Conflict News, and took notice of the humble man's efforts. Mr. Simonarson created a twitter account to seek Abdul and raise funds in hopes of giving light to his dim existence and provide hope for better days ahead. After tweets have been noticed, it struck a chord. With the help of local journalists and activists they found Abdul and started a crowdfunding campaign to offer help and assistance to Abdul and his family,
The UN High Commissioner for Refugees says it needs $5.5bn (£3.6bn) to help Syrian refugees and the countries hosting them - but it has received less than a quarter of that amount.

The UN High Commissioner for Refugees says it needs $5.5bn (£3.6bn) to help Syrian refugees and the countries hosting them - but it has received less than a quarter of that amount.
For one man, the money has the potential to change everything. Mr Attar says he wants to use the money to put his two daughters through school and to help other Syrian refugees.
And Mr Simonarson wants to use the goodwill shown towards Abdul to raise money for others in the region's many refugee camps.
"Sometimes you need a spark to ignite people's inner compassion and then take it further to help more people," he says.
But how easy is that without someone like Mr Attar, for people on social media to connect to?
"It's a fair concern," he says. "Of course it's better to help more than just one person.
"But I think a lot of people just want to see someone's life change."

The overwhelming support from people from all walks of life and especially those from other parts of the country who travelled hundreds of miles just to be in Davao City for the culmination of the nationwide caravan last Friday, August 28, has tremendously impacted Duterte's intention to run. After several indications that he may indeed run for presidency, the doubts have been erased as the announcement of Duterte cleared all the speculation that he will run this coming 2016 elections. The tides have turned and shockwaves have been generated as people chime in with the winds of change, hinting that this is the time that the Philippines will finally shed the reputation of the government and usher a new era in the hands of the "Punisher". Although his scores on opinion polls fare remarkably low when compared to leading candidates such as Vice President Jejomar Binay, Senator Grace Poe, and Senator Miriam Defensor-Santiago, may believe that this will not affect or even reflect Duterte's qualifications in running for president. What are your thoughts on Mayor Rodrigo Duterte finally deciding to run in the 2016 elections? Let us know with your comments!

Rice has been a staple food for most countries in Asia. Its no wonder even rice these days is getting faked because of its high demand.
For the past years, China has been accused for producing and selling many fake products including food. This latest news about fake food from China is quite shocking though—fake rice made out of plastic! Yes, they are now selling fake plastic rice and it is very hard to distinguish when mixed with ordinary rice because it is coupled with potatoes, starch and synthetic resin, which can be quite deadly and poisonous. News reports suggested that the grains were made by mixing potatoes with industrial synthetic resin. There were also rumors of the “cheap but profitable” rice being exported to other Asian countries, including Singapore, Indonesia, Vietnam, and India.
Reports claim that the fake rice originated from Taiyuan, Shaanxi Province in China. And it has began to enter the markets of neighboring countries, which could be quite alarming since rice is a staple food for most of these countries and it can be very difficult to distinguish a fake rice from a real one.

And it has began to enter the markets of neighboring countries, which could be quite alarming since rice is a staple food for most of these countries and it can be very difficult to distinguish a fake rice from a real one.
When raw, the rice is supposedly hard to distinguish, but when cooked—a plastic film forms on top of the rice which can be burnt when heated. According to some victims, the said rice remains hard even when cooked. Health experts are warning people that these grains, if consumed, could cause serious damage to our health.
Each individual is asked to double out their awareness because the difference between a real rice and this fake rice is not much except for the fact that the fake rice is hard to digest.
All we have to do right now is to pay attention to what we're eating and to be careful! Once you've realized that the rice you're eating is a lot harder than the usual and is difficult to digest, you better stop eating because the rice you're eating is probably the fake grains from China.

A text message that made its way into the Internet depicting the gathering of Iglesia ni Cristo members on EDSA in Manila is gathering controversy and debate amongst the media and the people as well. It seems INC members are gearing up to show resilience to the government after an expelled INC official exposed distressing truths happening inside their church. This comes after expelled INC minister Isaias Samson Jr filed an illegal detention case against INC leaders before the DOJ. This caused the EDSA to freeze and clog the traffic flow, as they rallied into the highway without prior notice, seemingly declaring for what they say "the separation of church and state", causing major concern and stress to vehicle drivers, motorists, and civilians alike. The text is believed to call on Iglesia ni Cristo members to join the rally and negate the traffic in EDSA so the government takes notice of their collective prowess. Some INC detractors say the message stemmed from the leaders of the church. But some people pointed out that the text message is doubtful, mainly because the spelling of the word Cristo started with a "K", while INC members use "C" in the spelling of their church. Some believe that the message came from a Facebook page called "ONEwithEVM." seemingly the initials of current INC head Eduardo V. Manalo, who is involved in one of the subjects of the expelled minister's allegations.
In a text message, Manila’s public information office said the INC was “granted an extension to hold a public assembly along Pedro Gil, Padre Faura, and United Nations Avenue from August 29 to September 4, 2015, up to 12 midnight.”

In a text message, Manila’s public information office said the INC was “granted an extension to hold a public assembly along Pedro Gil, Padre Faura, and United Nations Avenue from August 29 to September 4, 2015, up to 12 midnight.”
This extension is “subject to the same conditions stipulated in the original permit” granted by the Manila city hall on Wednesday, August 26.
It certainly won't help that the rally will last for days, as the heat and tension rises from every direction on the church, its members, and its detractors.

Ed Mundsel Bello, 28, was convicted after pleading guilty to publishing disparaging comments about Singaporeans on Facebook and lying to the police twice on Jan. 3 and 4.
In his Facebook post, Bello called out Singaporeans as "loosers (sic) in their own country". "We take their jobs, their future, their women, and soon, we will evict all SG loosers out of their own country", Bello added, saying that Singapore would be the "new Filipino state".
He also inclined that he would be "praying that disastors (sic) strike Singapore and more Singaporeans will die". He will "celebrate" if this happens, he said.
The post ended with the declaration: "REMEMBER PINOY BETTER AND STRONGER THAN STINKAPOREANS."
“Our embassy in Singapore confirmed that he was convicted on Wednesday morning. His lawyer, his sister and an officer of the Philippine Embassy in Singapore were present at the hearing,” said Assistant Secretary Charles Jose, the DFA spokesperson.
The court heard that the police carried out extensive investigations. Six statements were recorded from Bello, and nine from other material witnesses.
Police also seized a computer terminal he allegedly used from a cybercafe at Lucky Plaza. This and two of his mobile devices were sent to the Technology Crime Forensic Branch for forensic analysis.
His employers, Tan Tock Seng Hospital, carried out an inquiry into his online conduct. He persistently denied that he had published the comments. He was later fired.
Bello finally confessed to posting the Jan 2 comments, using his "Edz Ello'' Facebook account at home, after being confronted with evidence.
Deputy Public Prosecutor Kumaresan Gohulabalan said Bello had been regularly commenting on reports and articles relating to Singapore since the middle of last year. These comments included numerous vile, derogatory and offensive posts, which touched on issues of race and nationality.
On Jan 3, his comments were highlighted on The Kaki News Network, a Facebook page primary focused on reporting Singapore-related news with a significant following. It was "liked'' and "followed" by over 30,000 Facebook users.
For promoting feelings of ill-will and hostility between different races or classes of the population of Singapore, Bello could receive a fine of up to S$5,000 or a jail term of up to three years, or both.
Bello was arrested on Apr 7. His passport was confiscated and bail set at SGD10,000. He will be sentenced on Sep 16, 2015.

These days it can be pretty hard for most people to put down their mobile phones even for a second. Most of us get too preoccupied with our gadgets that we forget to be aware of everything surrounding us. In a tragic incident in Zhengzhou, a 2-year old boy died after being struck by a vehicle near a shopping mall. The mother left her child unattended, seemingly being busy fiddling with her phone. Little did she know that it would prove a fatal mistake, one that surely cost her the life of her son. According to some witnesses, the little boy was playing on the sidewalk while his mom was too busy on her mobile phone. The SUV struck the boy and left a bloody horror right in front of the mother's eyes.

Unfortunately, a jeepney driver fell victim to a simple misunderstanding on the road which led to a physical abuse by a vehicular driver. Vincent S., a witness to the incident, elaborated the events of Mang Henry, a jeepney driver who was physically hurt by an enraged driver.
Henry Fernandez or Fernando is the man in the picture. A jeepney driver. (I’m not sure if I got his surname right, he was already very dizzy when I asked him and I couldn’t see his ID)
This was the scenario. The jeep I was riding was journeying through across Puregold when a silver Toyota Vios with plate number AAW 5042 suddenly made a u-turn. Mang Henry quickly stepped on the breaks and made a turn to avoid hitting the car. He did not hit the car. The car on the other hand stopped and the driver got off. He was a little dark with a strong built. He turned Beast ode and forcefully pulled Mang Henry out of the jeepney, claiming his car was damaged. Mang Henry’s shirt was torn in the process.
So Mang Henry got off the jeep, he looked calm, probably thinking that he might have really hit the guy’s car. They both looked at the car but it seemed as though the driver was pointing to the wrong side of the car. Then I took a peek, there shouldn’t be a scratch since the jeep was far from the car. I also noticed the car’s signal was not on, so I think the car driver was also wrong since he was the one who suddenly made a u-turn. I was taken by surprise when the driver just suddenly punched Mang Henry who wasn’t doing anything but calmly talking. He hit him near the ear and I was shocked as blood started trickling down Mang Hentry’s clothes as he walked back to the jeep. The car driver quickly got in his car and sped up southband (toward Monument0). He escaped.
When I checked on Mang Henry, there was a deep cut near his ear. I’m not sure if the car driver had a ring or some sort of steel. We quickly called the traffic enforcer and tried to find the Vios (I don’t know what happened). Then we called a rescue team. I waited for help to arrive so I could give my side of the story and to ensure Mang Henry’s safety before I left for work.
In all honesty, I was shocked by the whole incident. It’s as if the car driver was possessed by a devil. Mang Henry was calm when he spoke you, yet this is what happened. The jeepney driver is simply working hard to earn a living. Now what? He will not be able to work for several days because of what you did to him. You are too arrogant. I am not sure if you are trying to show off, to think you had your wife and kids in the car with you. I guess they couldn’t stop you because they were also afraid of you.
If you have other information about this person,
Person: dark colored, big built, aroound 5’5 to 5’6 in hight
Car: Silver Toyota Vios with plate number AAW 5042

Valenzuela City Police (PNP)

It would be of great help for Mang Henry if the suspect could be identified. If any of you know the identity of the man, kindly report to the authorities so it will he handled with properly. There are certainly two sides to the story, but for now this is all the information that was gathered and certainly Mang Henry suffered greatly regarding this incident. Hopefully the suspect is captured and give an explanation on his side so we can get the idea on how the incident truly unfolded.

its Senior Vice President for Engineering Engr. Elvis B. Ancheta and Vice President for Legal Affairs Lynn P. Delfin, asked NTC to act on the matter for subscribers who are supposedly “being short-changed through the irresponsible acts of their service provider.”
The Kapuso network collated tweets from netizens based in Metro Manila, Bacolod and Iloilo dating from July 19 to August 21, claiming that the network’s signal before, during or after Eat Bulaga is being “sabotaged” by SkyCable.In line with the complaint, the Network cited a series of tweets posted from July 19 to August 21, 2015 by televiewers from Metro Manila, Cavite, Bacolod, and Iloilo, “who mostly decried the apparent ‘sabotage’ perpetrated by SkyCable” and expressed “disgust” for missing their favorite portion of the country’s longest running noon-time show.
Twitter user @wyne_me posted on August 13, 2015 “OMG! Walang signal ang GMA sa sky cable dito sa Bacolod pero ang iba meron. Nakakabadtrip! Eat Bulaga na mamaya #AlDubHihintayinKita.”
Meanwhile, another viewer with the username @floresjenny1214 tweeted on August 20, 2015 “Sky cable naman eh kapag eat bulaga na lagi malabo o mawawala wag ganun #ALDUBKeepTheFaith.” According to GMA, if proven, the act is a violation of Section 6 of the NTC MC No. 4-08-88 or the Revised Rules and Regulations Governing Cable Television Systems in the Philippines

Two TV Journalists Shot Dead During a Live Broadcast
Is it a waterfall? Locals have gathered around the village to witness apparently what looks like a vertical drop of flowing water falling from the skies! Many have wondered where or how this body of water has formed, and it truly amazed everyone who witnessed. A villager caught the video on camera and spawned a mini debate in regards to the mysterious appearance of the falls and wondering where it came from.
Some say that its a free flow of massive water pressure generated by the nearby river. Others have said that it's a fountain. While some say that its a waterfall caused by heavy clouds in the sky! Many have varying opinions on whether its a falls, a fountain, or a massive water pressure, but none of it is actually correct. What looks like a waterfall coming down from the skies, and what looks like a fountain actually is a burst of water coming from a ruptured water pipe that caused the raging waters.

What looks like a waterfall coming down from the skies, and what looks like a fountain actually is a burst of water coming from a ruptured water pipe that caused the raging waters.
If you look closely at the video, you can see that the water flow is going upwards, meaning the water stems from the ground surface and rises up. The strong pressure from the water pipes blasted the water up from the leak, resulting in what seems to be a waterfall at first sight. Locals have already taken action in repairing the broken pipes and fixed the leaks. What do you guys thought of it at first? Let us know down the comments!

Mysterious Waterfall Plunges From the Skies! Check out the Video And See For Yourself!
Life's misfortunes can sometimes get the best of us, and certainly it can be a total bummer. Well this kid surely isn't too happy after he accidentally tripped and punched a hole at a T$50 million ($1.54 million) artwork masterpiece with his iron fist. Forget that, he just accidentally drilled a hole in the artwork by accident.
17th century Italian master artist Paolo Porpora, showcased his artwork in part of a Taipei exhibit displaying influenced works by Leonardo da Vinci, according to the main organizer David Sun. The incident was caught on camera as the boy proceeds to view the artwork in the exhibition and suddenly trips over the painting, using his fist as leverage to keep him from falling. What's funny is he punched the painting by accident.
"It was such an unusual accident," Sun said. "The boy was listening to the guide and wasn't looking where he was going and tripped and smashed a hole in the artwork."

The family and the boy has expressed sincere apology and regret for the incident, and luckily they will not pay for anything and will be free of any punishment. The good thing is the artwork was repaired immediately, according to David. "We had an Italian appraiser on hand and immediately contacted the collector. We decided to repair the painting immediately on site and it's back on display already."

Recently Angelica Panganiban and Bea Alonzo have been under scrutiny as they are being lashed out by fans and the social media for hinting that there may be a rift between the two and their frienship. Angelica remained silent at first, ignoring the comments of fans about her and Bea. But she decided to clear the air up and speak for herself regarding the spreading rumors.
In her recent Instagram post, Angelica said "Malayong-malayo ho si Bea sa akin. Siya ang reyna ng ABS-CBN. Chuwariwap lang ako. okay na po ba? Malinaw na? Para lang 'to sa mga makikitid ang utak, uulitin ko. At uulitin ko, wala akong pakialam sa image ko o sa tingin niyo sa kin." She clearly wasn't pleased with the way people criticized her actions, and most especially she didn't like the way fans pitted her against Bea, so she took to Instagram to fire shots back at people who were trying to spread false rumors.
Her posts suggests that she wants people to stop spreading made-up stories, as she says she and Bea are friends and they have nothing to fight or argue about. Hopefully this clears the air that between the two of them, and enlighten fans about spreading nonsense talk regarding the two artists.
She vented out her frustration over Instagram to let people know how infuriated she is because of people's comments and opinions. She even cursed the fans with profane and vulgar words to express her level of anger, something that rarely happens in the world of showbiz. Fans should probably conceive this by now that they shouldn't be butting in when it comes to her personal life.

After the recent news of a Filipino tourist who perished in the unforgiving waters of Coron, Palawan about a week ago, it has drawn ire and dispute on social media.

Travis further noted that "The attached photo is exactly what Miguel's foot looked like when he was observed at Coron District Hospital. They dismissed the puncture wounds and didn't offer me any type of explanation."
He asked for additional information regarding his boyfriend's situation, and the doctors concluded that a sea urchin was the suspect of claiming Miguel's life. Doctors said: "After a thorough search search and discussion with several marine and medical professionals, it is our best conclusion that he stepped on a sea urchin, not a stonefish." Adding the storyline of the tragic incident of former TV personality and former football player Bob Wilson's son similarly experienced.
While doctor have their own say regarding the cause of death, Travis still remains skeptical about the results and is waiting for the official reports from the autopsy conducted in Manila to exactly pinpoint what caused Miguel's fatality.
"We are still waiting the official autopsy results for the detailed toxicology report," he said. "However, it is important for me to clear the air about the stonefish and other suggested cause of death", Travis added.

In no way ever recorded in the history of mankind is cheating ever, ever acceptable. But nevertheless, people do it. Women do it. Men do it. Even your kids do it. Never mind the kid part. Still, it's a horrible nightmare for the victims who have been cheated on, it's like a direct stab to the chest with a spoon. Imagine the pain it brings.
Many women experience this awful deception, and it shatters their most precious self-esteem in ways men would never have imagined. So when this girl had lingering doubts about her boyfriend, she decided to take action and find out for herself whether her boyfriend is actually cheating on her or not.
Luz and her boyfriend met at a local Wholefoods, and since then the flowers blossomed and love found it's way in both of their lives. They have been dating for almost a year now, but recently, things haven't been going the way both of them wanted it to be, and the arguments and miscommunication started piling up. Doubts crept in, and Luz was starting to get suspicious of her boyfriend after he scrapped a date they've talked about a couple weeks ago.
She was unable to reach him, and his grand excuse was his car and cellphone battery both died! (If that's even possible). So Luz decided that she needed help, and she turned to her good friend Luis and thought of a devious plan to find out if her boyfriend is still faithfully loyal to her. They set him up with Luis' smokin' hot friend Harley, and the results were pretty. Pretty horrible.

As if the recent issues OFWs face regarding the tax implementations and opening of their balikbayan boxes by the Bureau of Customs weren't enough, another issue has surfaced and is causing quite the ruckus amidst concerned individuals.
A forwarding company is now facing criticism and accusations after having been discovered to be "selling" balikbayan boxes to some negotiators. In light of the report, the owners of the packages have no idea that their balikbayan boxes were being sold to interested buyers.
In the streets of Silverio compound in Parañaque, a news team discovered a market stall selling imported goods allegedly from Saudi Arabia. Canned goods, home amenities and shoes are seen being sold, along with other products. They also spotted a couple of packages that were still unopened, some of them even bearing the name and the address of the person who the package was supposed to be sent to.
The Department of Trade and Industry warned customers to be aware about their transactions to forwarders, making sure that it is secure and holds valid proof. They said that if there are any complaints to forwarders, customers should visit the DTI to file a case and make actions as soon as possible.

This stirred up quite the controversy, and when the store owner was asked on how she got these packages, she admitted that the boxes were sold by a forwarding company named DXL International. The company claims that the owners of the packages owe the company a debt for more than a year, so they sold the boxes seemingly without the knowledge of the package owners. Archia Legarda, a DXL International Freight Forwarder, said
"More than one year na po yan ngayon nagbibigay po kami ng ultimatum na kung hindi na yan makukuha, ididispose ho namin yan, paano kami makakarecover?"

Balikbayan Boxes From OFWs Spotted Being Sold in a Local Market Stall
Image source: ignore rants
The BOC rule was being instituted on grounds of balikbayan boxes possibly carrying undeclared goods for proper taxation. This has sparked people all over the nation with fury and rage. Sen. Ferdinand Marcos Jr. has joined the public outrage over the plan of the Bureau of Customs and chimend in with his own words in regards to conducting random inspections of balikbayan boxes, saying it is a form of harassment of overseas Filipino workers (OFWs).
He said “For every OFW, a balikbayan box is the equivalent of his or her love letter to a spouse and the rest of the family. Every item inside that box was bought with a specific person and purpose in mind, bought with the hard-earned money of our modern-day heroes. So if a single item there gets lost, can you imagine how that feels to an OFW who invested so much emotion and money just to get those goods home?”
Marcos noted that the balikbayan box system used by OFWs to send personal goods to their loved ones in the Philippines started during the administration of his father, the late President Ferdinand Marcos, when Section 105 of the Tariff and Customs Code of the Philippines was amended to provide duty and tax-free privileges to OFWs. The latest sample of this was posted by a Facebook page called Ignore Rants, in referral to the issue of the Bureau of Customs in opening balikbayan boxes and implementing taxes which are clearly bloated. A box was delivered from the post-office from London and then the staff decided to open the box. They spotted a Gucci bag, which the staff says a tax is required to be paid. They then searched for the bag online to check its original price, then seemingly found a similar bag with a price of about $1,200. Then they calculated the equivalent tax and resulted in a whopping PHP15,959.00. The package was sent by a family member from London and was ready to be picked up by a relative. Little did they know that their pockets would soon run shallow even before getting a chance to get ahold of their delivered package from their loved ones. The post says even a book is taxed, virtually everything is given a tax which is completely absurd considering how much money the government could collect for just one balikbayan box.
The tax outweighs the original price of the item, and people are calling out the BOC to justify why are there even taxes for balikbayan boxes. The Bureau of Customs certainly is treading on muddy waters now as it faces criticism and rage from every direction. What do you think of the Bureau of Customs' latest plan? Is it a good idea? Or they should scrap it out? Let us know in the comments below.

Screen shot from: Camille Laroco
Much dispute has been received by noontime show It's Showtime after displaying "inappropriate" performances noticed by viewers and fans of the said channel.Recently, a Facebook post by Camille Laroco encompassed her spout on the show's improper display on television. Entitled A Rant about Media from a Concerned 18-year old Lady, she unleashed her fuming rage and criticized the actions of ABS-CBN's noontime variety show's TV Personalities.
In her statemend regarding her post, Camille was very disturbed at the way the show unsuitably displays the dance performances of Ella Cruz and Anne Curtis' Twerk It Like Miley renditions, saying that it was deemed unsuitable for young children to view and see.
She said that it was okay when she saw that kind of performance once, but seeing the dance steps again being unethically displayed, this sparked her inner fury. She then said that the twerking dance performances of the two dancers were zoomed very close to their behind, which was very inappropriate considering the show is being viewed by children of varying ages which could be very sensitive to watch.
Camille felt that the dancers and actresses were being disrespected and being used as a tool to garner high ratings for their noontime show. She even questioned how the MTRCB allowed such actions.
She said "Pangalawa, etong si Anne. I'm a fan. A big fan. Wala namang masama na sumayaw siya ng ganito. Utos lang din naman ng director nila 'to (feeling ko lang), but, NOT PROPER FOR A NOON TIME SHOW NA MAY MGA BATANG NANONOOD. Patutuwadin niyo sa harap ng mga tao, at itatapat pa ng camera sa mga pwetan ng mga dancers niyo at sa pwet ni Anne. Nasaan ang respeto niyo sa mga babae? This is not even moral anymore. 'Di ko alam kung bakit wala pang aksyon ang MTRCB dito."
Although she is subscribed to the network and is an avid fan of the show, she admits that she was very disappointed on what she has seen on the show.
She clarified that it's not the fault of the dancers, nor Anne or Ella's. She pointed the blame to the network for displaying their dance performances in an inappropriate manner. She then added that the influence of the younger generation stems from what they see on television programs, social media, and the internet. It garnered certain attention, her post was shared about more than 12,000 times and has received 50,000 likes after she posted it.

18-year old girl criticizes noontime show regarding their "improper" performances
The excitement and the thrill from just walking through the entrance of amusement parks is enough to give kids that exhilaration they're anticipating on amusement park rides. Even adults are thrill-seekers that they feel the excitement in the air as screams of joy and shrieks can be heard from the amusement park.
One of the most popular and extreme rides well known by many people is the Slingshot. Mt. Olympus Theme Park & Water Park in Wisconsin Dells is home to this famous ride, as 13-year old Trevor Larson and family friend Carrie Sueker is excited to experience a ride of their lives. When suddenly, the unfortunate occurred.
As they are being strapped into place on the catapult, the Slingshot cable all of a sudden just snapped, and was tossed to the ground. Fortunately the cable strap snapped before they were launched into the air. A man said in the background that he noticed something wrong with the cables. And he uttered in a low voice "I'll pray for you. the ropes are looking a little frayed."
Luckily no one was harmed in the process, as the accident was avoided. In the meantime, the theme park closed the ride to make faulty repairs and investigating the cause of the incident.
Theme park owner Nick Laskaris told WISN that this type of incident has never even happened once at the park. He said "It's unfortunate. Mechanical failures unfortunately do happen."

Customers should be the priority of safety and health. However, these incidents unfortunately happen once in a while, but surely it's the fault of the theme park for not checking properly their equipment. Hopefully incidents like these should be avoided in the near future and provide a more enjoyable, safe, and thrilling experience for the customers on theme parks. Check out the nerve-wracking video below caught by his very own father.

It is said that the event, according to NASA, hasn't occurred in over 1 million years.Astronomers from NASA have indicated that the world will remain in complete darkness starting on Sunday, November 15, 2015 at 3 a.m. and will end on Monday, November 30, 2015 at 4:15 p.m.
According to officials, the event, known as “November Black Out”, will be caused by another astronomical event between Venus and Jupiter. The whole phenomenon has been explained in a highly scientific way.
The article also stated that Charles Bolden, who was appointed to head of NASA by President Obama, issued a 1000 page document explaining the event to the White House.
The gaseous reaction will release and unprecedented amount of hydrogen into space. The hydrogen gas will make contact with Earth's sun at approximately 2:50 a.m. The mass amount of hydrogen making contact with the sun will cause a massive explosion on the sun's surface. The explosions will cause the sun's surface temperature to increase to 9,000 degrees Kelvin in an instant.
Some areas of the world may experience brief moments of light of 7 to 8 minutes, but the Earth will then go back to complete darkness until the Sun's surface temperature has been restored.
Bolden held a conference with the Obama Administration to discuss further details of the "Black Out" event. The only effect this event will have on Earth is an increase of 6 to 8 degrees in temperature. The polar cap will not be majorly affected by this. No one should worry much, likely this event would be similar to Alaskans experience in the winter.
