Philippines mourns after the Execution of 3 Pinoys in China
The whole Filipino nation is still mourning after the three Filipinos convicted of drug trafficking were executed in China today. Despite the public appeals made by the Philippine government and the various pleas from different international organizations, the Chinese government remained firm with its decision to subject the Filipino convicts to lethal injection.
In 2008, Elizabeth Batain, Sally Ordinario-Villanueva and Ramon Credo were caught smuggling several kilograms of heroin each in China where they have also been detained for a couple of years. Solid in its policy against illegal drugs, China as a communist country holds on to its law that the trafficking of at least 50 grams of any illicit drug is punishable by death. Fact is there have been many Chinese nationals and other foreigners who suffered the same fate. Thus, many believed that it was indeed a more hopeless case for the three Filipinos. And truly it was!
"It is a sad day for us, up to the last minute we were doing everything we can to postpone the execution," Vice-President Jejomar Binay said in a radio interview from Qatar. The Vice-President sent an appeal on Tuesday asking to keep the three Filipinos alive. However, his request was not granted. It could be remembered that he flew to Beijing in February and gained a brief delay of the death sentences.
The three suffered their execution today, March 30, 2011. Elizabeth Batain, 38, was executed by lethal injection at a prison in the southern Chinese city of Shenzhen. Sally Ordinario-Villanueva, 32, and Ramon Credo, 42, were executed in the port city of Xiamen.
Earlier today, their family members were allowed to visit them as prayer vigils and masses were held in the Philippines.

Jackie Chan tweets in Hostage Taking at Quirino Grandstand
"Don't worry, Hong Kong people don't hate.", these are the summary of the 4th tweet of Jackie Chan, a Chinese superstar regarding the hostage taking happened yesterday at Quirino Grandstand where 8 hongkong nationals killed. Jackie Chan wrote this statements in his twitter account (http://twitter.com/eyeofjackiechan).
Other tweets that Jackie Chan wrote prior to the above mentioned statements:
"I come back to hk & I hear terrible news about what happened in filippines. A lot of things dont happen to your own country you don't pay attention " - This is the first tweet of Jackie Chan with regards to the issue of Hostage taking. Seems like he also has little anger with this post.
"this kind of things always happen around the world. It happened to hk's people, the whole hk is talking about it. Its really sad." - the second tweet of Chan which described the feelings of Hong Kong people.
"If they killed the guy sooner, they will say why not negotiate first? If they negotiate first, they ask why not kill the guy sooner? So sad" - the third tweet of Jackie Chan which summarizes the conflicting ideas of what might happened when they kill the hostage taker earlier without negotiation or vice versa.
I remember the day before in korea we talked about how people should love each other. We already have so many natural disasters..typhoon, tsunami, everything. Humans should be united and not kill or hate each other - his last tweet showing a brief message of care and love.
In behalf of everyone, we are mourning and also saddened by the event. But not all Filipinos have of the same negative intention, that's why we are requesting for a good and unbiased treatment of your citizens to the Oversees Filipino Workers out there in your country.

MANNY PACQUIAO won over JOSHUA CLOTTEY
Winner by Unanimous decision, MANNY PACQUAIO reigns victories over Joshua Clottey after 12 rounds of boxing. He won in the boxing fight coined as “THE EVENT” held at Dallas Cowboys Stadium, Arlington Texas this 14th day of March. The stadium was occupied by 51, 000 fans and viewers.
The fight of Manny Pacquiao (the pound for pound boxer in the world) with Clottey (a boxer from Ghana, Africa) can be considered as one of his hardest battles in his boxing career. Before the fight, predictions from boxing experts thought that this boxing match would not last in 6 rounds, but the world turned counterclockwise. Joshua has his peculiar style of boxing which made hard for Manny to accomplish his target. Clottey used his high-guard defense of covering his face avoiding the straight sound punch of Manny. Clottey has hammered style of punch and this made Pacquiao’s right eyebag to be bruised. Many scored in ROUND 1-10, 12 while Clottey only scored in ROUND 11. A boxing fight video is embedded below.
Pacquiao is being idolized by Clottey but unlike Pacquiao and dela Hoya fight where Manny shown his idolization with Oscar, this boxing match keeps the fire burning. Regardless of the opponent, the pound for pound champion who gained 7 different titles in 7 different divisions still substantiate his title.

Sandra Bullock - Best Actress in Oscars 2010
Sandra Bullock hailed as the Best among his contending actresses in the concluded Oscars this March 8, 2010, the 82nd Academy Awards in Hollywood. Bullock is the leading star in the movie The Blind Side which was premiered last 2009.
The Blind Side is a 2009 American Drama sports film written and directed by John Lee Hancock and based on the 2006 book The Blind side: Evolution of a Game by Michael Lewis. The storyline features Michael Oher, an offensive lineman who plays for the Baltimore Ravens of the NFL. The film follows Oher from his impoverished upbringing, through his years at Wingate Christian School (a fictional representation of Briarcrest Christian School in suburban Memphis, Tennessee), his adoption by Sean and Leigh Anne Tuohy, and on to his position as one of the most highly coveted prospects in college football.
The British release date for the film has been announced to be March 12, 2010.
