The facility located in a barangay in Bocaue, Bulacan, named the
Philippine Arena, will be fitted with 50,000 seats and its domed
roof will be nearly 36,000 square meters,making it the world’s
largest domed arena, the company said.
Hanwha E&C said that the work will be carried out over 30 months
to be finished early 2014
“By winning this contract for building the world’s largest dome arena,
the company was able to prove its technological capabilities and the
ability to carry out overseas projects,” Kim said in a statement.
The company said that in the biddings for the contract, it competed
with China’s Jiangsu International and the Philippines’ largest
construction company EEI Corp.
The project will be conducted in design-build process in which the
contractor is responsible for all related processes from designing
to building the facility, the company said.
Iglesia Ni Cristo is putting up Philippine Arena, soon to be the
world’s biggest domed arena in "Ciudad de Victoria" Bocaue, Bulacan.
It will build also besides the PHILIPPINE ARENA as follows:
EGM MEDICAL CENTER
EVM CONVENTION CENTER
NEW ERA UNIVERSITY BOCAUE CAMPUS, BUILDINGS FOR COLLEGE OF
ARCHITECTURE, COLLEGE OF MEDICINE AND COLLEGE OF MUSIC.
NEW ERA UNIVERSITY SPORTS COMPLEX, STADIUM AND OLMYPIC SIZE SWIMMING POOL.
because of Fast Growing of IGLESIA NI CRISTO soon this place will be might putting also a huge TOWN HOUSES/CONDOMINIUM
Side Notes:
Para magkaroon kayo ng idea kung bakit biggest dome ito sa buong mundo:
``The facilities will be built on 74,000 square meters of land and will
be three times bigger than the Seoul Olympic Gymnastics Stadium,
the country’s largest indoor arena, " a Hanwha official said."
SM Arena under construction, seating capacity na 16,000
Smart-Araneta Coliseum 25,000 seating capacity Biggest in
Southeast Asia Ito yung current biggest Dome
Now more than ever I'm really, really proud to be a member of the
Church Of Christ (Iglesia Ni Cristo)

MGA TAONG GUSTO KONG PASALAMATAN SA AKING KAARAWAN
Kay President Noynoy Aquino na nagturo sa akin na ang birthday ay tulad lang ng popularity rating minsan ay tumataas at mas madalas naman na bumababa.
Kay VP Jojo Binay dahil pinagtatanggol niya ang Presidente sa isyung mas mataas ang rating niya kay PNoy. " Hindi naman dapat ikumpara ang performance ng Pangulo sa Pangalawang Pangulo. Iko-compare mo ba ang apple sa apple? (sige na nga apple at duhat na lang)
President turned Congresswoman Gloria Macapagal Arroyo na nagturo sa akin na maging humble mula sa pagiging Presidente ay naging kongresman na lamang. (Dapat tayong magpakababa pero wag naman ninyong maliitin ang ang height ko –GMA)
Kay Senate President JP Enrile na nagturo sa akin na maging happy kahit tumatanda ka na.
Kay Senator Mirriam Defensor na kahit na isinusulong niya ang divorce bill ay nagpakasal ulit sa para sa kanilang 50th wedding Anniversary..
Senator Jamby Madrigal nag nagturo sa akin na hindi pala natin malalaman ang presyo ng galunggong kung hindi naman tayo kumakain nito.
Kay Hubert Webb na nagturo sa akin na kahit mayaman ka ay pwede ka rin palang makulong at maging biktima ng walang katarungan.
Kay DOJ secretary Lilia de Lima sa sobrang sipag sa pagpapa-imbestiga ay nasapawan na niya si Mike Enriquez.
Kay Mar Roxas kahit bangungot sa kanya ang nakaraang eleksyon ay nabigyan pa rin ng pwesto sa gobyerno.
Kay Korina Sanchez na K pa rin kahit hindi natupad ang pangarap niyang maging First Lady at asawa ng Vice President.
Willie Revillame na nagturo sa akin na pwede palang gamitin ang mga mahibirap para yumaman.
Kay Kris Aquino na kahit pala nagkaroon ka ng STD ay pwede ka pa ring mag-indorse ng feminine wash
Kay Vice Ganda na nagturo sa akin na pwede ka palang sumikat kahit inaaglahi mo at pinipintasan ang mga pagmumukha ng mga contestant. (Bakit, kahit baklang –kabayo may taste din naman ah! -Vice Ganda)
Dra. Vicky Belo nag nagturo sa akin na maging mapagpatawad kahit pinagtaksilan ka ng maraming beses ng iyong mahal. (Sana matutuhan niya ring patawarin yung mga humihingi ng discount sa kanyang mga cosmetic surgery.)
Kay Shalani Soledad kahit nasaktan sa paghihiwalay nila ni Noynoy ay naging daan naman upang maging isa sa mga highest paid host sa TV.
Kay Liz Uy na nagturo sa akin na dapat ka rin magsabi ng NO kahit na ang nag-aalok sa iyo ng kasal ay ang pinakamakapangyarihan tao sa bansa (Kung sabagay nagpakatotoo ka lang naman sa sarili mo na di mo type ang isang 50 years old na kalbo at amoy-sigarilyong boyfriend)
Sa Team Azkals nag naturo sa akin na maging makabansa kahit na karamihan ng mga miyembro nito ay lumaki sa ibang bansa.

Sa aking mga ka-friendship sa FB at sa mga relatives ko na bumati sa akin maraming salamat po!.
Ang regalo ko naman sa aking sarili ay …..
Hinding-hindi na ako manonood ng mga tele-serye sa TV, para kasing nag-sasawa na ako sa coincidence at amnesia na lagi na kasama sa estorya ng ganitong mga drama.
Hinding-hindi ko na tatangkilikin ang mga KPOP artists at si Justin Beiber.
Hinding-hindi ako hahanga sa mga artista at karaniwang babae na gumagamit at nagi-indorso ng produktong pampaputi tulad ng glutathione. (hindi ba nila alam na ang kutis- Pilipina ay hinahangaan sa buong mundo, bakit mo babaguhin ito?
Hinding-hindi na ako bibili (kahit pa pirated copy) ng mga album nila Kris Aquino, Gretchen Barreto, Marian Rivera, Piolo Pascual , Manny Pacquiao at Willie Revillame masyado na kasing nai-insulto yung mga totoong singer. Ibo-boycot ko na rin ang Star at GMA records.
Hinding-hindi ko na tititigan ang mga litrato ni aling Dionesia Pacquiao at Madam Auring para di na ako binabangungot sa gabi.
Hinding-hindi na ako magha-hum or sasabay ng kanta habang nakikinig sa cellphone music or mp3 habang nasa pampublikong sasakyan.
Hinding-hindi na ako magsu-suot ng sun glass sa loob ng mall at di na rin magpa-powder at maglalagay ng pabango sa harap ng maraming tao. .
Ko-kontrolin ko ang aking sarili upang di mainis sa mga showbiz balita.
Hinding-hindi ko hahangaan ang isang artista o politiko na nagsasabi na galing siya sa mahirap at para sa mahirap para lang sumikat.
Hinding-hindi ko sasabihin na maganda ang kasalubong kong babae kapag kasama ko ang aking misis.
Hinding-hindi na ako mako-kunsumi pag napakinggan ko ang mga DJ's ng Love at Yes FM.
Hinding-hindi na ako gagamit ng mga salitang “yuck” at kadiri para kasing masagwa.
Hinding-hindi ko na sisitahin yung mga Yosi Kadiri at durara mumurahin ko na lang.
Hinding-hindi na ako magtataka sa mga nagre-review sa Starbuck imbis na gawin nila ito sa library o sa bahay.
Hinding-hindi ko ilalagay ang batas sa aking kamay kahit gabi-gabi akong binu-bwiset na aking kapitbahay sa pagbe-videoke na inaabot ng madaling-araw.
Pipigilan ko na ang aking pagka-inis sa mga FB users na
palit ng palit ng status, nagbi-benta ng kanyang mga produkto at networking, Nagpo-post ng lahat ng kanyang ginagawa at iniiisip, Nagpapasikat ng mga bago niyang gadgets, nagpo-post ng mga close-up photos na pilit pinapa-cute ang sarili.
Hinding-hindi na ako mapipikon sa mga racist at paninira sa atin ng mga dayuhan (mga pintasero rin naman tayong mga Pinoy eh)
Pangako ko sa sarili ko pahahabain ko pa ang aking buhay :)
Hinding-hindi na rin ako magede-deny…..
Hinding-hindi na rin ako magte-tell ng lie ….
Pero hinding-hindi rin ako aamin ng totoong edad ko..

SLIP, SLIDIN, AWAY
NEWS ALERT!!!
A ferocious tsunami spawned by one of the largest earthquakes on record slammed Japan's eastern coast Friday, killing hundreds of people as it swept away ships, cars and homes while widespread fires burned out of control. Hours later, the tsunami hit Hawaii but did not cause major damage. Warnings blanketed the Pacific, putting areas on alert as far away as South America, Canada ...
An earthquake is a violent movement of the rocks in the Earth's crust. Earthquakes are usually quite brief, but may repeat over a long period of time.
There are large earthquakes and small earthquakes. Big earthquakes can take down buildings and cause death and injury. The study of earthquakes is called seismology.
When the earth moves in an earthquake, it can cause waves in the ocean, and if a wave grows large enough, it's called a "tsunami". A tsunami can cause just as much death and destruction as an earthquake. Landslides can happen, too. This is a very important part of the Earth's cycle.
Earthquakes are measured with a seismometer. The magnitude of an earthquake, and the intensity of shaking, is measured on a numerical scale. On the scale, 3 or less is scarcely noticeable, and magnitude 7 (or more) causes damage over a wide area.
The ancient Chinese also used a device that looked like a jar with dragons on the top surrounded by frogs with their mouths open. When an earthquake occurred, a ball fitted into each dragon's mouth would drop out of the dragon's mouth into the frog's. The position of the frog which received a ball indicated the direction of the earthquake.
Causes of earthquakes
Q: What is the strongest earthquake ever recorded?
A: The 1960 Valdivia earthquake or Great Chilean Earthquake (Spanish: Gran terremoto de Valdivia) of 22 May 1960 is to date the most powerful earthquake ever recorded, rating 9.5 on the moment magnitude scale. It occurred in the afternoon (19:11 GMT, 14:11 local time) and its resulting tsunami affected southern Chile, Hawaii, Japan, the Philippines, eastern New Zealand, southeast Australia, and the Aleutian Islands in Alaska.
The Ten Strongest Earthquakes in the World
1.Chile, 22-May-1960, 9.5
2. Prince William Sound, Alaska, 28-Mar-1964, 9.2
3. Andreanof Islands, Aleutian Islands, 9-Mar-1957, 9.1
4. Kamchatka, 4-Nov-1952, 9
5. Off western coast of Sumatra, Indonesia, 26-Dec-2004, 9
6. Off the coast of Ecuador, 31-Jan-1906, 8.8
7. Rat Islands, Aleutian Islands, 4-Feb-1965, 8.7
8. Northern Sumatra, Indonesia, 28-Mar-2005,8.7
9. India-China border, 15-Aug-1950, 8.6
10. Kamchatka, 3-Feb-1923, 8.5
Surely Earthquake that hits Japan yesterday will be included in the Top 6 surpassing the record of Ecuador because it’s magnitude is 8.9..

realized that their leaders were all over-staying dictators. Hosni Mubarak just stepped down But Moamar Khadaffi or Gaddafi? Kadafi? Qaddafi? What's the correct spelling?
You say, Gaddafi, we say Qaddafi. Other variations on the leader of Libya include "Gathafi," "Kadafi," and "Gadafy," creating an unholy mess for newspaper editors.

Judgement Day
No, I'm not talikng about the 2nd coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but the coming election on May 10, 2010. The truth is I was drafting a new note when a flash news from ABS-CBN caught my attention, it was reported by Anthony Taberna the official endorsement of the Church of Christ (Iglesia Ni Cristo) for the following candidates.
President: Benigno Simeon " Noynoy " Aquino
Vice President: Mar Roxas
Senators:
•Muntinlupa Rep. Rozzano "Ruffy" Biazon
•Sen. Ramon "Bong" Revilla Jr.
•Sen. Pia Cayetano
•Sen. Miriam Defensor Santiago
•former Sen. Franklin Drilon
•Sen. Juan Ponce Enrile
•Sen. Jose "Jinggoy" Estrada
•Bukidnon Rep. Teofisto "TG" Guingona
•Sen. Manuel "Lito" Lapid
•Ilocos Norte Rep. Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr.
•former Sen. Ralph Recto
•former Sen. Vicente "Tito" Sotto III
After the long wait 5 days na lang siguro ang sakripisyo natin sa ingay ng kampanya, Maraming bagong pangyayari at totoo naman pong makasaysayan ang mga ito (Siyempre, first time for the new Executive Minister of INC brother Bro. Eduardo Manalo to make an important decision for the Church.) First time din na gagamit tayo ng machine mula sa manual ay magiging automated na. Kaya nadagdagan na naman ang mga terms sa ating vocabulary tulad ng PCOS, CF, etc..at naging high tech na rin ang kampanya.
After months of election related activities such as filing the certificates of candidacy, political alignment, defection from one to party to another, grueling campaign period, tons of political paraphernalia, gimmicks, mutli-media ads (including social sites such as Facebook, Friendster, Multiply, Twitter and the worst of them all those text messages.) Bombardments of TV ads, news and interview from morning to late evening. Muslingings among politician are normal things, poitical gossips such as election failure,
postponement of election and the worst thing, some are getting paranoid for the scenario of automated cheating. After all this thing babalik na tayo sa normal nating buhay.
Related Notes:
Religious cult leader Apollo C. Quiboloy has endorsed Gilbert Teodoro. The El Shaddai Movement is reportedly endorsing Manny Villar. Last week, the CBCP picked JC De Los Reyes over his rivals.
Binay: Pareng Erap napasama pa yata yung pag-amin ko na may kabit din ako, tulad mo, ayan wala tuloy tayong nakuhang religious endorsement.
Erap: Wag kang mawalan ng pag-asa malay mo i-endorso tayo ng mga Muslim, di ba pwede sa kanila ang maraming asawa?"
Binay: " Ha-ha- ha!"
Erap: " Ha-ha- ha din."
Richard Gordon said: " Hindi ako naniniwala sa mga surveys at nga religious endorsement, ang totoo hindi na rin ako naniniwala na mananalo pa ako."
Erap: Sakit ng ulo ko paano na to, hindi ako dala ng INC, balita ko pa si Villar ang dadalhin ng El Shaddai."
Brother Mike: Don't worry malaki naman ang tsansa na manalo yung kabit mo bilang mayor ."
Pacquiao: " Umiiyak ka ba dahil d ka nadala ng kapatiran?"
Villar: " Hindi tinamaan mo ako ng itaas mo yung kamay ko, muntik na akong ma-knock-out ah."
Noynoy: " Totoo ba yung balita mo Shawie na dadalhin ako ng INC, baka naman ine-echos mo lang ako."
Sharon: Oo naman, teka wag mo kong yakapin baka magselos si Kiko."

VOTE WISELY
While walking down the street one day, a powerful
senator of the Philippines is tragically hit by a
truck and dies. His soul arrives in heaven and is met
by St. Peter at the entrance.
"Welcome to Heaven," says St. Peter. "Before you
settle in, it seems there is a problem. We seldom
see a high official around these parts, you see, so
we're not sure what to do with you."
"No problem, just let me in." says the senator.
"Well, I'd like to but I have orders from higher-up.
What we'll do is have you spend one day in Hell and
one in Heaven. Then you can choose where to spend
eternity."
"Really, I've made up my mind. I want to be in
Heaven," says the senator.
"I'm sorry but we have our rules." And with that, St.
Peter escorts the senator to the elevator and he goes
down, down, down to Hell.
The doors open and he finds himself in the middle of a
green golf course. In the distance is a club and
standing in front of it are all his friends and other
politicians who had worked with him, everyone is very
happy and in evening dress. They run to greet him, hug
him, and reminisce about the good times they had while
getting rich at expense of the people. They play a
friendly game of golf and then dine on lobster and
caviar.
Also present is the Devil, who really is a very
friendly guy who has a good time dancing and telling
jokes. They are having such a good time that, before
he realizes it, it is time to go. Everyone gives him
a big hug and waves while the elevator rises. The
elevator goes up, up, up and the door reopens on
Heaven where St. Peter is waiting for him.
"Now it's time to visit Heaven."
So 24 hours pass with the senator joining a group of
contented souls moving from cloud to cloud, playing
the harp and singing. They have a good time and before
he realizes it, the 24 hours have gone by and St. Peter
returns. "Well then, you've spent a day in Hell and
another in Heaven. Now choose your eternity." He
reflects for a minute, then the answers: "Well,
would never have thought it, I mean Heaven has been
delightful, but I think I would be better off in
Hell."
So Saint Peter escorts him to the elevator and he goes
down, down, down to Hell. Now the doors of the
elevator open and he is in the middle of a barren land
covered with waste and garbage. He sees all his
friends, dressed in rags, picking up the trash and
putting it in black bags. The Devil comes over to the
senator and lays an arm on his neck.
"I don't understand," stammers the senator. Yesterday
I was here and there was a golf course and club and we
ate lobster and caviar and danced and had a great
time. Now all there is a wasteland full of garbage and
my friends look miserable.
The Devil looks at him, smiles and says, "Yesterday we
were campaigning. Today you voted for us!"

BEFORE I GROW OLD
First, I was dying to finish my high school and start college.
Then I was dying to marry and have children.
And then I was dying for my children to grow old enough,
so I could go back to work.
But then I was dying to retire
And now I was dying . . .
And suddenlyI realized
I forget to live
Pls. don't let it happen to you
Appreciate your current situation
and enjoy each day
. . . old friend.
HOW TO STAY YOUNG
1.. Throw out nonessential numbers. This includes age, weight and height. Let the doctors worry about them. That is why you pay 'them'
2. Keep only cheerful friends. The grouches pull you down.
3. Keep learning. Learn more about the computer, crafts, gardening, whatever. Never let the brain idle. 'An idle mind is the devil's workshop.' And the devil's name is Alzheimer's.
4. Enjoy the simple things.
5. Laugh often, long and loud. Laugh until you gasp for breath.
6. The tears happen. Endure, grieve, and move on. The only person, who is with us our entire life, is ourselves. Be ALIVE while you are alive.
7. Surround yourself with what you love , whether it's family, pets, keepsakes, music, plants, hobbies, whatever. Your home is your refuge.
8. Cherish your health: If it is good, preserve it. If it is unstable, improve it. If it is beyond what you can improve, get help.
9. Don't take guilt trips. Take a trip to the mall, even to the next county; to a foreign country but NOT to where the guilt is.
10. Tell the people you love that you love them, at every opportunity.
AND ALWAYS REMEMBER :
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

OF HEROES AND VILLAINS
Sa nakalipas na dalawang linggo ng buwan na ito ay hindi tayo magkamayaw sa pagbubunyi sa mga bagong bayani sa ating henerasyon (pasintabi sa mga OFW, sila ang orig na mga bagong bayani) Una yung bago at pinakamataas na karangalan sa larangan ng boksing ang pagsungkit ni Manny Pacquiao sa 7 korona na siya pa lamang nakagagawa. May sumunod pa rito ang boksingero na si Rodel Mayol ay naging kampeon din sa kanyang ika-5 pagtatangka (bagama't hindi gaanong sikat tulad ni Pacquiao, ito'y dagdag karangalan pa rin sa ating bansa sa loob lamang ng isang linggo.
Pero ang tunay na hinangaan ko ang totoo ay medyo naluha pa ako ng i-announce ang CNN Hero Of The Year. Siya ay si Efren Penaflorida, who started a Kariton Classroom to bring education to poor children. Grabeh ang sikat nitong si Efren, at mas sikat pa siya sa katukayo niyang si Efren "Bata" Reyes ng Billard. Hindi na ako magtataka kung sa mga susunod na araw ay magdidikit na dito si Chavit Singson at Lito Atienza. $100,000 ang grant sa kanya ng CNN (isa-suggest ko sa kaniya ang business na "Kariton Network" pwedeng maging franchise ito)
Naging panandalian lamang ang pagbubunyi natin sa mga bayaning ito dahil may sumambulat na balita na nagpagalit sa atin lahat, ito yung Maguindanao Massacre na 57 ang mga natuklasan patay at maari pang madagdagan (kabilang dito ang 27 na taga- media)na ang nahuhukay na pinaslang ng mga walang budhi na ( pasensiya na hindi ko pwedeng tawagin tao ang mga salarin na ito) ayon sa ulat ay away pulitika ang naging ugat nito. Hindi ko ito maintindihan na ang politiko na may layunin makapaglingkod sa tao, ay kailangan pang pumatay ng kanyang lapwa-tao.
Kung totoo ang alegasyon na ang mga Ampatuan ang may kagagawan, siya na ang panapat nating kontra-bayani laban kina Pacman at Penaflorida.
Hay, hindi na tayo naubusan ng malalaking balita samantalang napakaliit ng ating bansa.
Pacquiao outbox Cotto
" at muli kung nasungkit ang pinakasikat na tao sa Pilipinas, sorry kung bumaba ang rating ni Noynoy at ni Mang Tani ng PAGASA.
"Efren Penaflorida won CNN Hero of the Year 2009 " may $100K na ako, marami ng kariton akong mabibili, at hindi po ako tatakbo sa 2010 at kahit alukin ako ni Oliver Lozano na maging Bise-Pesidente niya."
" Akala ko mga nagpapahinga lang sa park ang mga ito at natutulog, yun pala mga tsugi na."
Ampatuan
" ako nga si Ampatuan huwag ninyo akong pagbintangan na mamatay tao, di ako marunong pumatay, yun mga tauhan pwede pa pero ako hindi! hindi, pag nakalabas ako dito humanda ka papatayin kita."

There is only one Philippines
Where you can find a small country but big when it comes to news. No other than the Philippines. From calamity to personality, from disaster to massacre, from coronation to corruption. It's all here in this tiny archipelago where you can find all the big news. This country is gifted with both good and bad publicity.
Aren't you proud of your country?

Something I don't know, (Now I know)
It takes your food seven seconds to get from your mouth to your stomach.
One human hair can support 3kg (6.6 lb).
The average man's penis is two times the length of his thumb.
Human thighbones are stronger than concrete.
A woman's heart beats faster than a man's
There are about one trillion bacteria on each of your feet.
Women blink twice as often as men.
The average person's skin weighs twice as much as the brain.
Our body uses 300 muscles to balance itself when you are standing still.
If saliva cannot dissolve something, you cannot taste it.
Women reading this will be finished now.
Men are still busy checking their thumbs.

CANCER KILLER FRUIT
Please read about this miracle fruit that can kill cancer cells 100,000 times, more effective than chemo that gave you side effects
Guyabano,...The Sour Sop Fruit
The Sour Sop or the fruit from the Graviola tree is a miraculous natural cancer cell killer 10,000 times stronger than Chemo.
Why are we not aware of this? Its because some big corporation want to make back their money spent on years of research by trying to make a synthetic version of it for sale. So, since you know it now you can help a friend in need by letting him know or just drink some sour sop juice yourself as prevention from time to time.
The taste is not bad after all. It’s completely natural and definitely has no side effects.
If you have the space, plant one in your garden. The other parts of the tree are also useful. The Next Time You Have A Fruit Juice, Ask For A Sour Sop.
How many people died in vain while this billion-dollar drug maker concealed the secret of the miraculous Graviola tree? This tree is low and is called Graviola in Brazil , Guanabana in Spanish and has the uninspiring name "Soursop" in English.
The fruit is very large and the subacid sweet white pulp is eaten out of hand or, more commonly, used to make fruit drinks, sherbets and such.
The principal interest in this plant is because of its strong anti-cancer effects.
Although it is effective for a number of medical conditions, it is its anti tumor effect that is of most interest.
This plant is a proven cancer remedy for cancers of all types.
Besides being a cancer remedy, graviola is a broad spectrum antimicrobial agent for both bacterial and fungal infections, is effective against internal parasites and worms, lowers high blood pressure and is used for depression, stress and nervous disorders. If there ever was a single example that makes it dramatically clear why the existence of Health Sciences Institute is so vital to Americans like you, it's the incredible story behind the Graviola tree.
The truth is stunningly simple:Deep within the Amazon Rainforest grows a tree that could literally revolutionize what you, your doctor, and the rest of the world thinks about cancer treatment and chances of survival.
The Future Has Never Looked More Promising. Research shows that with extracts from this miraculous tree it now may be possible to:
* Attack cancer safely and effectively with an all-natural therapy that does not cause extreme nausea, weight loss and hair loss
* Protect your immune system and avoid deadly infections
* Feel stronger and healthier throughout the course of the treatment
* Boost your energy and improve your outlook on life
The source of this information is just as stunning: It comes from one of America 's largest drug manufacturers, the fruit of over 20 laboratory tests conducted since the 1970's! What those tests revealed was nothing short of mind numbing...
Extracts from the tree were shown to:
* Effectively target and kill malignant cells in 12 types of cancer, including Colon, Breast, Prostate, Lung and Pancreatic cancer..
* The tree compounds proved to be up to 10,000 times stronger in slowing the growth of cancer cells than Adriamycin, a commonly used chemotherapeutic drug!
* What's more, unlike chemotherapy, the compound extracted from the Graviola tree selectively hunts down and kills only cancer cells.
It Does Not Harm Healthy Cells!
The amazing anti-cancer properties of the Graviola tree have been extensively researched-- so why haven't you heard anything about it?
If Graviola extract is as half as promising as it appears to be--
why doesn't every single Oncologist at every major hospital insist on using it on all his or her patients?
The spine-chilling answer illustrates just how easily our health--
and for many, our very lives are controlled by money and power..
Graviola- -the plant that worked too well One of America 's biggest billion-dollar drug makers began a search for a cancer cure and their research centered on Graviola, a legendary healing tree from the Amazon Rainforest.
Various parts of the Graviola tree--including the bark, leaves, roots, fruit and fruit-seeds--have been used for centuries by medicine men and native Indians in South America to treat heart disease, asthma, liver problems and arthritis.
Going on very little documented scientific evidence, the company poured money and resources into testing the tree's anti-cancerous properties--and were shocked by the results. Graviola proved itself to be a cancer-killing dynamo.
But that's where the Graviola story nearly ended.
The company had one huge problem with the Graviola tree--it's completely natural, and so, under federal law, not patentable. There's no way to make serious profits from it. It turns out the drug company invested nearly seven years trying to
synthesize two of the Graviola tree's most powerful anti-cancer ingredients.
If they could isolate and produce man-made clones of what makes the Graviola so potent, they'd be able to patent it and make their money back.
Alas, they hit a brick wall. The original simply could not be replicated.
There was no way the company could protect its profits--or even make back the millions it poured into research. As the dream of huge profits evaporated, their testing on Graviola came to a screeching halt. Even worse, the company shelved the entire project and chose not to publish the findings of its research!
Luckily, however, there was one scientist from the Graviola research team
whose conscience wouldn't let him see such atrocity committed.
Risking his career, he contacted a company that's dedicated to harvesting medical plants from the Amazon Rainforest and blew the whistle.
Miracle Unleashed When researchers at the Health Sciences Institute were alerted to the news of Graviola, they began tracking the research done on the cancer-killing tree. Evidence of the astounding effectiveness of Graviola--and its shocking cover-up--came in fast and furious.....The National Cancer Institute performed the first scientific research in 1976. The results showed that Graviola's "leaves and stems were found effective in attacking and destroying malignant cells." Inexplicably, the results were published in an internal report and never released to the public...
Since 1976, Graviola has proven to be an immensely potent cancer killer in 20 independent laboratory tests, yet no double-blind clinical trials- the typical benchmark mainstream doctors and journals use to judge a treatment's value- -were ever initiated..A study published in the Journal of Natural Products, following a recent study conducted at Catholic University of South Korea stated that one chemical in Graviola was found to selectively kill colon cancer cells at "10,000 times the potency of (the commonly used chemotherapy drug) Adriamycin..."
The most significant part of the Catholic University of South Korea report is that Graviola was shown to selectively target the cancer cells, leaving healthy cells untouched.
Unlike chemotherapy, which indiscriminately targets all actively reproducing cells (such as stomach and hair cells), causing the often devastating side effects of nausea and hair loss in cancer patients. A study at Purdue University recently found that leaves from the Graviola tree killed cancer cells among six human cell lines and were especially effective against prostate, pancreatic and lung cancers...
Seven Years Of Silence Broken--it's Finally Here! A limited supply of Graviola extract, grown and harvested by indigenous people in Brazil , is finally available in America .

Guyabano,...The Sour Sop Fruit
The Sour Sop or the fruit from the Graviola tree is a miraculous natural cancer cell killer 10,000 times stronger than Chemo.
Why are we not aware of this? Its because some big corporation want to make back their money spent on years of research by trying to make a synthetic version of it for sale. So, since you know it now you can help a friend in need by letting him know or just drink some sour sop juice yourself as prevention from time to time.
The taste is not bad after all. It’s completely natural and definitely has no side effects.
If you have the space, plant one in your garden. The other parts of the tree are also useful. The Next Time You Have A Fruit Juice, Ask For A Sour Sop.
How many people died in vain while this billion-dollar drug maker concealed the secret of the miraculous Graviola tree? This tree is low and is called Graviola in Brazil , Guanabana in Spanish and has the uninspiring name "Soursop" in English.
The fruit is very large and the subacid sweet white pulp is eaten out of hand or, more commonly, used to make fruit drinks, sherbets and such.
The principal interest in this plant is because of its strong anti-cancer effects.
Although it is effective for a number of medical conditions, it is its anti tumor effect that is of most interest.
This plant is a proven cancer remedy for cancers of all types.
Besides being a cancer remedy, graviola is a broad spectrum antimicrobial agent for both bacterial and fungal infections, is effective against internal parasites and worms, lowers high blood pressure and is used for depression, stress and nervous disorders. If there ever was a single example that makes it dramatically clear why the existence of Health Sciences Institute is so vital to Americans like you, it's the incredible story behind the Graviola tree.
The truth is stunningly simple:Deep within the Amazon Rainforest grows a tree that could literally revolutionize what you, your doctor, and the rest of the world thinks about cancer treatment and chances of survival.
The Future Has Never Looked More Promising. Research shows that with extracts from this miraculous tree it now may be possible to:
* Attack cancer safely and effectively with an all-natural therapy that does not cause extreme nausea, weight loss and hair loss
* Protect your immune system and avoid deadly infections
* Feel stronger and healthier throughout the course of the treatment
* Boost your energy and improve your outlook on life

It Works!
A woman comes home and tells her husband, ‘Remember those headaches I’ve been having. All these years? Well, they’re gone.’ ‘No more headaches?’
the husband asks, ‘What happened?’ His wife replies, ‘Margie referred me to a hypnotist & he told me to stand in front of a mirror, Stare at myself and repeat, ‘ I do not have a headache ‘ ‘ I do not have a headache ‘ ‘ I do not have a headache ‘ Well, it worked! The headaches are all gone.
‘ Well, that is wonderful’ proclaims the husband. His wife then says, ‘You know, you haven’t been exactly a ball of fire in the bedroom these last few years, why don’t you go see the hypnotist and see if he can do anything for that? ‘ Reluctantly, the husband agrees to try it.
Following his appointment, the husband comes home, rips off his clothes, picks up his wife and carries her into the bedroom. He puts her on the bed and says, ‘Don’t move, I’ll be right back.’ He goes into the bathroom and comes back a few minutes later and jumps into bed and makes passionate love to his wife like never before.. His wife says, ‘WOW! – that was wonderful!’
The husband says, ‘Don’t move! I will be right back.’ He goes back into the bathroom, comes back and round two was even better than the first time. The wife sits up and her head is spinning ‘ OH MY GOD ‘ She proclaims.
Her husband again says, ‘Don’t move, I’ll be right back.’ With that, he goes back in the bathroom. This time, his wife quietly follows him and there, in the bathroom, she sees him standing at the mirror and saying. ‘She’s not my wife ‘ ‘She’s not my wife ‘ ‘She’s not my wife ‘ . ‘She’s not my wife ‘
Story cut short, his wife is now languishing in jail for homicide.

THE SEED
A successful business man was growing old and
knew it was time to choose a successor to take over the
business. Instead of choosing one of his Directors or his children,
he decided to do something different.
He called all the young executives in his company together.
He said, "It is time for me to step down and choose the
next CEO. I have decided to choose one of you.
"The young executives were Shocked, but the boss continued.
"I am going to give each one of you a SEED today - one very special SEED.
I want you to plant the seed, water it, and come back here one
year from today with what you have grown from the seed I have given you. I will
then judge the plants that you bring, and the one I choose will be the next
CEO."
One man, named Jim, was there that day and he, like the others,
received a seed. He went home and excitedly, told his wife the story. She
helped him get a pot, soil and compost and he planted the seed.
Everyday, he would water it and watch to see if it had grown.
After about three weeks, some of the other executives began to talk about their
seeds and the plants that were beginning to grow.
Jim kept checking his seed, but nothing ever grew..
Three weeks, four weeks, five weeks went by, still nothing.
By now, others were talking about their plants, but Jim didn't
have a plant and he felt like a failure.
Six months went by -- still nothing in Jim's pot. He just knew
he had killed his seed. Everyone else had trees and tall plants, but he had
nothing. Jim didn't say anything to his colleagues, however... He just kept
watering and fertilizing the soil - He so wanted the seed to grow.
A year finally went by and all the young executives of the company
brought their plants to the CEO for inspection.
Jim told his wife that he wasn't going to take an empty pot.
But she asked him to be honest about what happened. Jim felt
sick to his stomach, it was going to be the most embarrassing moment of his
life, but he knew his wife was right.
He took his empty pot to the board room. When Jim arrived, he
was amazed at the variety of plants grown by the other executives. They were
beautiful -- in all shapes and sizes.
Jim put his empty pot on the floor and many of his colleagues laughed, a few felt sorry for him!
When the CEO arrived, he surveyed the room and greeted his young
executives. Jim just tried to hide in the back. "My, what great plants,
trees, and flowers you have grown," said the CEO. "Today one of you
will be appointed the next CEO!"
All of a sudden, the CEO spotted Jim at the back of the room
with his empty pot. He ordered the Financial Director to bring him to the
front. Jim was terrified. He thought, "The CEO knows I'm a failure! Maybe he will have me fired!"
When Jim got to the front, the CEO asked him what had happened to his seed
- Jim told him the story.
The CEO asked everyone to sit down except Jim. He looked at Jim,
and then announced to the young executives, "Behold your next Chief Executive
Officer! His name is Jim!" Jim couldn't believe it. Jim couldn't even grow his seed.
"How could he be the new CEO?" the others said.
Then the CEO said, "One year ago today, I gave everyone in
this room a seed.. I told you to take the seed, plant it, water it, and bring
it back to me today. But I gave you all boiled seeds; they were dead - it was
not possible for them to grow.
All of you, except Jim, have brought me trees and plants and flowers.
When you found that the seed would not grow, you substituted another
seed for the one I gave you.
Jim was the only one with the courage and honesty to bring me a
pot with my seed in it. Therefore, he is the one who will be the new Chief
Executive Officer!"

REMEMBERING MARTIAL LAW
Every 21st of September, You will see those militants, leftist, Cory's yelloy people people brigade, those so called human rights victims of atrocities during martial law. You know all these people pissed me off every year, why not celebrate good things happened during martial law? likes descipline, peace and order, no drug trafficking,strict inplementaion of curfew to the youth, cleanliness and beautification of Metro Manila etc, (ang dami-dami nito) Ang totoo marami ang nagsasabi na mas maganda ang buhay nuong Martial law dahil maganda ang economy natin, maganda ang mga negosyo ng mga mamamayan, hindi mo pangangambahan ang kidnaping, at lahat ng masasaman elemnto ng kasamaan ng paligid. Eh marami raw biktima ang martial Law, sorry na lang sila, alam naman nilang Martial law, kakalat-kalat pa sila sa paligid.

Brother Mike
Church people are now entering politics. Bro. Eddie Villanueva of Jesus Is Lord Church confirmed his 2nd attempt for the presidency, a Priest Governor from Pampanga, and of course the clown-preacher Bro. Mike Velarde of El Shaddai (by the way El Shaddai is a catholic charismatic movement w/c was founded by Bro. Mike 25 years ago.) And his latest pronouncement, he said that he is the only candidate who promise a life in heaven. Of course those stupid-fanatics followers believed him. why I boldly say that those people are stupid from day 1 he promised that all his members will get rich after 25 years they remain poors. I remember Cardinal Sin, onced said that Bro. Mike is a shallow preacher and I agreed with him completely. Ito minsan ang nakakapagtaka sa mga Pilipinong-katoliko. kaya nga maski hindi boto ang CBCP na ginagamit ang katoliko at ang pondo sa ministry nito na hindi malaman kung saan napupunta at dinadala ni Bro. Mike ay pinababayaan na lang nila ito, sa dahilan na mas pinakikinggan ng katolikong el Shaddai si Bro. Mike kesa sa mga Kaparian. Iboboto mo ba si Bro. Mike? ano ako hilo?

If Life is Water.....
A group of working adults got together
to visit their University lecturer.
The lecturer was happy to see them.
Conversation soon turned into complaints
about stress in work and life.
The Lecturer just smiled and went to the kitchen
to get an assortment of cups -some in plastic,
some in glass, some plain looking and some looked rather
expensive and exquisite.
The Lecturer offered his former students
the cups to get drinks for themselves.
When all the students had a cup in hand with water,
the Lecturer spoke: "If you noticed, all the nice looking,
expensive cups were taken up, leaving behind
the plain and cheap ones. While it is normal that you only
want the best for yourselves, that is the source of your
problems and stress. What all you wanted was water,
not the cup, but we unconsciously went for the better cups."
"Just like in life, if Life is Water, then the jobs,
money and position in society are the cups.
They are just tools to hold/maintain Life, but the
quality of Life doesn't change."
"If we only concentrate on the cup,
we won't have time to enjoy/taste the
water in it."

BEWARE OF CANNED SOFTDRINKS...
IMPORTANT!
A stock clerk was sent to clean up a storeroom in Maui , Hawaii .
When he got back, he was complaining that the storeroom was really filthy and that he had noticed dried mouse/rat droppings in some areas.!
A couple of days later, he started to feel like he was coming down with a stomach flu, complained of sore joints and headaches, and began to vomit.
He went to bed and never really got up again. Within two
days he was severely ill and weak. His blood sugar count was down to 66, and his face and eyeballs were yellow. He was rushed to the emergency at Pali-Momi, where he was diagnosed to be suffering from massive organ failure. He died shortly before midnight.
No one would have made the connection between his job and his death, had it not been for a doctor who specifically asked if he had been in a warehouse or exposed to dried rat/mouse droppings at anytime. They said there is a virus (much like the Hanta virus) that lives in dried rat and mouse droppings.
Once dried, these droppings are like dust and can easily be breathed in or ingested if a person does not wear protective gear or fails to wash face and hands thoroughly .
An autopsy was performed on the clerk to verify the doctor's suspicions.. .
This is why it is extremely important to ALWAYS carefully rinse off the tops of canned sodas or foods, and to wipe off pasta packaging, cereal boxes, and so on.
Almost everything you buy in a supermarket was stored in a warehouse at one time or another, and stores themselves often have rodents.
Most of us remember to wash vegetables and fruits but never think of boxes and cans.
The ugly truth is, even the most modern, upper-class, super store has rats and mice. And their warehouse most assuredly does!
Whenever you buy any canned soft drink, please make sure that you wash the top with running water and soap or, if that is not available, drink with a straw.
The investigation of soda cans by the Center for Disease Control in Atlanta discovered that the tops of soda cans can be encrusted with dried rat's urine, which is so toxic it can be lethal. Canned drinks and other foodstuffs are stored in warehouses and containers that are usually infested with rodents, and then they get transported to retail outlets without being properly cleaned.
