ISNC Advisory 2008-01
January 12, 2008
Yesterday, my site had been down for almost 7 hours due to CPU excess usage. It looks like I’ve had too many scripts running on my sites. 
So today, I decided to trim it down to the basics, disabling the following features:
- You will no longer receive comment email responses from me. Should you desire to follow the conversation in the comments area, please subscribe to the comments or visit back.
- Only the part of my post before the ‘more’ tag will be available in the feed. To read the full post, you now need to visit the site.
- Word verification for comments are now removed.
- Footnotes are now disabled.
Sorry for any inconvenience that these changes might bring you. I’m looking forward to restoring them as soon as things get settled. Also, I’m considering transferring to a better webhost and would appreciate any feedback or advice you can give me. Thanks.

It is fun to live life but to think about it is another thing. There is so much that we fail to understand.
Did life ever sent you a puzzle that you have still not figured out? Have you ever felt the need to soul search in order to realize your place in the world?
Have you ever felt minuscule against the greater scheme of things?
I Want Your Entrecards
January 8, 2008
Just this week, I decided to join Entrecard. I love the idea of a virtual calling card that you can easily drop off to other participants to let them know that your site exist. The rules are also quite simple to understand: drop a card to earn credits, use the credits to advertise to others’ widgets. Ads worth is equal to double the number of cards you receive in a day.
So if you have one, I want your Entrecard. I’ll appreciate it if you could drop me one on the right side of my blog.
This post is in reply to Ate Thess‘ tag which goes like this…
****Game/meme for Entrecard Filipino and Non Filipino users****
* Tell us why you’re using Entrecard
* Tag 3-5 bloggers you know who are using Entrecard
* Return the favor by dropping your card on theirs
* Copy this game/meme on your entry and by the end of your entry, simply add your blog/s that are using Entrecard/s. This is a networking game, so please don’t be stingy with your links.

* Lastly, simply add your blogs after mine.
***End of game***

So here are the people I wish to pass this game to:

2008 World Pyrolympics Schedule
January 8, 2008
Below is the 2008 World Pyrolympics schedule circulating around the internet.
February 16 – China (CN) vs Germany (DE)
February 23 – Japan (JP) vs Australia (AU)
March 1 – Korea (KR) vs Dubai (AE)
March 8 – Italy (IT) vs Venezuela (VE)
March 15 – France (FR) vs Philippines (PH)
I’m just not sure how much of it is true since I can’t seem to locate the activity’s official site. Given that it is, I am a bit surprised that they have scheduled it this late contrary to previous years. However, late is better than none at all.
UPDATE!
Feb16 – I have reasons to doubt that this event will push through today, you may want to check out their official site for updates.
Feb17 – Below is the official schedule of the 2008 World Pyrolympics as posted on their website. Firing starts at 6:00PM. Each aerial pyrotechnic display shall be for the duration of twenty (20) minutes.

No Rains For Marie
January 6, 2008
In my post Best Wishes Mga Panget, Ate Thess commented:
congrats to the newly weds! ikaw kapatid, kelan kaya?
to which I replied:
kapag sinagot na ako ni marie digby. ahaha!
I guess if there is an award for the best talent scout out there, you got to hand it over to YouTube who once again gave birth to a star…
Marie Digby is half Irish and half Japanese and plays the guitar and piano by ear. The video above have over four million views on YouTube and opened an opportunity for her to appear on the Carson Daly show. Currently, she has 4 songs up on iTunes and will be coming out with an album around April this year.Congratulations and more power Marie!
God Looks for Clay
January 6, 2008
“O house of Israel, can I not do with you as this potter?” says the LORD. “Look, as the clay is in the potter’s hand, so are you in My hand, O house of Israel! (Jeremiah 18:6)
God knows how to bring salvation to your family, your friends, your community, and your world. Accordingly, He looks for those who will allow Him to shape them into the instruments He requires to do His divine work. Clay has no plans of its own, no aspirations for service, nor reluctance to perform its given task. It is just clay. Moldable, pliable, totally submissive to the will of its master.

To Jeff and Marlyn,
I am grateful that the last ten years you’ve spent with each other ended in marriage. You have indeed proven that true love waits. As you start a new chapter in your life, may you not only count the years but make every year count. Grow more in your love and let God be the center of your relationship. When push comes to shove, you always have us, your friends, to count on.
Thank you for the opportunity to stand beside the both of you on one of the special moments in your life. May your love for each other grow more at each passing day. Congratulations!
Chantal Kreviazuk – This Year
January 4, 2008
For 2008, I decided to make TGIF more about my readers and less of me. So every month, I’ll be featuring three songs selected by one of my blog friends and I will only take the last Friday for myself. For January, I’m handing over the play button to my best bud.
Please visit his site at www.jeprocksdworld.com.

Washed Away

New year marks the start of just about anything. Just as I decided to change my blog theme from orange to blackish-gray, if we could, we time some major changes in our life for the new year.
As we turn the pages of our calendars, may we not turn our backs from the things that 2007 have taught us. Enjoy the good things and learn from the bad. For the lessons it taught us will aid us in deciding how to make a better tomorrow.
Let the hurts and failures be washed away and let the slates be clean. Today is a good day to start anew.
