[Jack London] is best known as the author of The Call of the Wild and The Sea Wolf, novels which made him rich. He’s somewhat less well known as a journalist and social activist—though in his time he worked as a war correspondent for newspapers and magazines, and was well-known as a powerful advocate for unions and a noted socialist lecturer. But he’s virtually unknown as a photographer, despite the fact that he shot remarkable photographs under very trying conditions. (Read More)

What is a paradise for you? Is it something like a castle? a mansion? a beach? This place would consider one of it. Gorgeous isn’t it? :))

Seven deadly sins — seven lively Asian cities. We all stray off the path of righteousness from time to time. So if you’re going to end up in hell due to a temptation to eat more than your fair share of stinky tofu, take a detour to Taipei first. Or if pride’s your vice, take a turn toward Manila.

Much is made about the loveliness of the Filipino female. But you wouldn’t know it by talking to the Filipino men — they’re too busy gazing lustfully into the mirror.
According to a study from Synovate, Filipino men are the most narcissistic in Asia. A whopping 48 percent consider themselves sexually attractive.
And if the ladies reading this think the guys’ encounters with the brow tweazers are for your benefit, sorry — nine out of 10 Filipino men polled said they liked to look good for themselves, not anyone else.
By way of comparison, just 25 percent of men in Singapore considered themselves sexually attractive, 17 percent in China and Taiwan and a measly 12 percent of Hong Kong guys think the same.
Happy Easter Sunday :)), have a blessed sunday. Always remember all the things God gave us :D

Going Nuclear circa 1960s: This arc-shaped nuclear laboratory building, designed by Architect Cresenciano de Castro, was the first nuclear research laboratory in the country, under the Philippine Nuclear Research Institute (PNRI). PNRI’s main facility was originally a nuclear research reactor, subsequently modified and finally shut down since 1988.
