Entrecard Entry

This is a bit late but that’s ok. I’m not a huge fan of Entrecard or other blog networking website so writing about it would be the last thing I would do. But some of my friend constantly asked me “how to start one?” or “how does it work?” So here it is. Signing up with EntreCard is so easy but getting the most out of it is not a walk in the park.

You should have an existing blog/website in the first place of course. Register your site for free at Entrecard select a category of your site and make a 125 x 125 image that best describe your site. Then select the widget you want to appear in your site and copy-paste the html code.

You’re almost done on your way to Entrecard stardom. But before anything else you need to earn credits first since advertising here is done thru ec(Entrecard credits) and not thru your plastic visa. You can earn credits by dropping other member’s card found somewhere in their blog/site and vise versa. You can also earn ec when someone advertises in your blog.

Lastly, promote your site. The cheapest advertising price is 2ec. Consider checking the site as well before you advertise. Does it have enough traffic and regular reader? Is it related to your blog/site? Those are just few things you need to consider to make the most of Entrecard.

Amanda Overmyer No More

Amanda's rendition of "Back in the U.S.S.R" has prompted the audience to send her home. It was not bad but it was not good at all. Honestly I am constantly annoyed every time she performs. And it's good to know I'm not the only one.

Overmyer a consistent vote-for-the-worst favorite pick has finally kissed her pitchiness goodbye. It seems southern rock flair is working no more. But in an interview she said "No. 11 out of all them people is more than I could expect."

Lindsay Lohan Hollywood’s Most Dumb

Lindsay Lohan’s poor movie choices, delinquent behavior and bad taste in men land her in the list of the most dumb according to Daily News. But the newspaper point out that “dumb doesn’t necessarily correspond to low IQ. There are poor life choices, style slipups and mishaps under the influence to take into account.” I wonder why Jennifer Love Hewitt’s in the list and why Britney didn’t made it in the top spot. Is Paris Hilton dead? Coz she's not in the list. Duh, hell I care.

How judges scored Pacquiao-Marquez fight?

The Pacquiao victory had cast doubt among both side's followers. A draw could have been a better option but I thought Pacquiao nailed it when he got Marquez down in the third round. So how did they conclude it? Here's the official NSAC master scoresheet:

Pacman: “This business is over”

Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao made history!

Manny Pacquiao is the first Filipino and the first Asian to win three-division championship when he beats Marquez by split-decision for WBC super featherweight title on saturday. Pacquiao is a WBC flyweight champion and IBF Super Bantamweight champion. That means he could be lined-up to Bob Fitzsimmons (160, 175, Heavyweight) Tony Canzoneri (126, 135, 140) Barney Ross (135, 140, 147) Henry Armstrong (126, 135, 147) Emile Griffith (147, 154, 160) Ray Leonard (147, 154, 160) Oscar De La Hoya (140, 147, 154) Floyd Mayweather 130, 135, 147) who all have three-division championship titles. Great feat for a Pinoy, kudos to Manny Pacquiao!

Pacquiao beats Marquez by split-decision.

Pacquiao snatched Marquez’s WBC super featherweight last Saturday night at Mandalay in a breathtaking battle that left both fighters bleeding. Marquez aggressiveness landed more punches at Pacquiao but Pacquiao’s vicious left hook thump him down. Albeit I’m into Pacquiao’s side but I was convinced Marquez fought a good fight. But the judges says it all; it was a split-decision, Manny Pacquiao won!

Judge Duane Ford 115-112 favored Pacquiao
Jerry Roth 115-112 for Marquez
Tom Miller gave a 114-113 to Pacquiao

Marquez in denial?

“I don’t like the decision,” Marquez said. “I still feel I am the champion. It was a bad decision. That first knockdown, he got me cold, but then I adjusted my game plan and I thought from then on, I dictated the whole fight. … The people are the best judge, and the people are booing him. I won.” - AP

What Went Wrong?

In my futile attempt to write a sensible and child-friendly article I end up not writing anything at all, for three days already. Not that there’s nothing news-worthy to write for a kid. It just that the world is going crazy even children nowadays are getting sick of thinking what is right from wrong. Al Gore in an interview with the British paper the Sun, said; "The Planet is in Destress and all of the attention is on Paris Hilton. We have to ask ourselves what is going on here"

It seems that entertainment is a necessity that we don’t give a damn on what’s more important. Violence are everywhere even at the comfort of our home. Some parents allow their kids to watch brutal scene on a PG tv or take part in a role-playing game that promotes nothing but hostility. I’m talking according to surveys, news articles and personal experience here. Nobody can blame anybody; as the world around us evolve we human goes as well. Inevitable? Duh, just plain personal irresponsibility associated with social enigma of adjustment.

Yesterday, the sun vividly shone inside my room that it woke me up turning my PC and go online. I took a sip of my freshly brewed coffee igniting my day for a new start when I saw the headline “kid accidentally pulls the trigger killing some kid”. I don’t want to spend the entire entry ranting about what went wrong. Rather I want to emphasize that we have to do something and ask ourselves what is going on.

10 Birkin bags, 80 classrooms and 4,800 students!

New LA resident Victoria with her custom-made birkin bag in Pink ostrich matching her dress, Lindsay Lohan's blue birkin that was reportedly stolen at Heathrow airport and the paparazzi-allergic Kate Moss hurrying with her green birkin. All are fashionable in their own ways, but hey, it’s not about whose fashionable or not. But who’s sensible enough to think it over.

According to Forbes’s magazine, Hermes custom-made Birkin Bags cost to about $20,000-$40,000. In fact it's the most expensive bag in the list. Are they sure? And an average of 10 Hollywood celebs own at least one of these bags. So that’s about $370,000 or P15, 540,000. Wow, that’s smashing!

Do you know that 1 classroom building here in the Philippines cost P325,000 – P375,000, and can accommodate 60 students (COA), if you do the math, 10 Birkin bags simply equals to 80 classrooms and 4,800 students. Come to think of it.

And not to mention several of those helpless animals they need to slaughter to come up with these bags. But that’s another story. Laughs!

American Idol Top 12: Ramiel's on the top 12!

I'm so hooked to AI that I cant help myself but imagine the whole day who got eliminated. Yesterday was one hell of a performance although I wasn't quite impress with Ramiel's rendition of "against all odds" but at least she nailed it compare to other American Idol hopefuls. Paula even said, "you deserves to be in the top 12". And she really did. But I was shocked when Asia'h Epperson got eliminated, I thought her version of "I Wanna Dance with Somebody" was fantastic. Kady Malloy, Luke Menard and Danny Noriega also didn't made it.

According to host Ryan Seacrest, more than 36 million votes were cast. And for the first time in American Idol history contestant can now sing Beatles's song.

Here's the complete list of AI's top 12:
Chikezie Eze, Amanda Overmyer, David Hernandez, Kristy Lee Cook, Brook White, Carly Smithson, David Archuleta, Ramiel Malubay, David Cook, Jason Castro, Michael Johns, Syesha Mercado
