Those killed in the crash were identified as the pilot and co-pilot, as well as Barker’s assistant Chris Baker and secutiy guard Charles Still. The Lear Jet 60 came to rest on an embankment along Highway 302, along the outskirts of the Columbia Metropolitan Airport, Saturday, Sept. 20, 2008, and caught fire.

Francis M’s leukemia and my Francis M Cassette Tape
MASTER RAPPER,TV host-actor Francis Magalona has been diagnosed with leukemia and is undergoing more tests.
I know this like a month old news, but that does not stop me from writing about it as I grew up listening to the master rapper. As I was searching through old collection of cassette tapes that I had when I was kid, I found my “The Best of Francis M” Vol. 27 cassette tape. I think my mother brought this when I was still Grade 1, so that’s year 1993. I think i lost the other cassette tapes part of this collection.
Here are the pictures of the cassette tape, Side A (LOL):
The son of local matinee idol Pancho Magalona and actress Tita Duran, Francis created his own mark in the entertainment industry as a rapper-performer when he released his debut album, Yo! back in 1990. The said record spawned the massive nationalistic rap hit song “Mga Kababayan,” which in effect introduced Pinoy style rap music in the mainstream.
The ‘90s band explosion failed to deter Francis’s popularity and significance in the music scene as proven by the number of hit albums and good singles he churned out since Yo! He even collaborated with other artists and most of the time experimented with various sounds and genres so as not to remain stale before the listening public >>>.
Get well soon, MASTER RAPPER!
Friendster Blogs now on WORDPRESS?
Friendster Blogs now on WORDPRESS? Was just checking on my mail when I hovered through a mail in my Spam stating that Friendster blogs are now placed on a new platform, so I had to check it out, and at first glance, my blog really looks like a WordPress blog with the defaul theme on it. Anybody who has friendster blogs? Can you justify that the blog platform is indeed Wordpress?
My first blog existed in Friendster but I have to leave it cause I had difficulties with the platform they are using. The platform was just too lame, I had to let my dog do the “friendster blogging” for me. Friendster was using Typepad as their blog platform before, and honestly, I should say that Typepad Sucks big time! You don’t have to agree with me or anything but I just simply hate the platform. So now that friendster has switched to Worpress, it’s a good news for us who has come to love Wordpress and its power (LMAO).
The main problem now is with the Friendster Bloggers who has come to love Typepad and its lameness. If any of you have any problem with the new Wordpress Friendster platform, you can alwaays drop a line here, I will be glad to help you with any problems.
For the past years, this has been the best move of Friendster so far, having WORDPRESS as the Friendster blog platform! Friendster Blog 2.0 powered by Wordpress.
P.S. I think I stayed in a cave for some time as when I checked Google SERPS for the news about Wordpress on Friendster, everybody has been talking about it. ;(
Looking for a new Webhost
After having some problems with the bandwidth usage that I had a while back that ballooned to 400GB, I am currently searching for a new webhosting company to handle my site. I was not certain as to how the bandwidth grew that big for only a span of 8 days but I now have a slight idea. While looking a new webhosting company, I stumbled upon this site which showed the Best Web Hosts for 2008. What caught my attention was that, most of the top Web Host offers Unlimited Traffic and that alone is music to my ears. For web newbies also looking for good web hosts, you can also try to read some of their articles for a guide in looking for a new web host. For me, I still have to think on how I’m going to pay my remaining dues with my current Web Hosting Company.
Bad News Bad News!
What a way to start September. I just received a mail coming from my web host about a forthcoming invoice on my Web Hosting account. I just though it would be a small $6 bill for the additional domain I ordered on the package. So i checked my Control Panel to double check what the invoice will be all about, and what I saw shocked me. It’s my nightmare coming true. My invoice is $140 dollars for excess Bandwidth! I couldn’t believe what I saw. Before, I would just be happy reaching my monthly 1GB Bandwidth average as I have a 100GB Bandwidth limit. For August, I reached 119GB and for just 8 days past September, my September bandwith usage is 428GB. That is 400x my usual Bandwidth.
The biggest question now is, HOW WILL I PAY MY DUES! I will not be able to pay $140. There are two options that I am weighing right now, 1.) Pay the dues 2.) Not pay the dues and wait for this account to be cancelled. Which is which? I badly need this site. If anybody can offer their help I would gladly accept it. You can spare me some of your loose change by donating though the Paypal button on the right sidebar.
NOTE: I think I found the culprit on the sudden Bandwidth outburst. I think it is the Michael Phelps is Evil Gif that generated that much traffic. I’m not sure how browsers or web hosts treats GIF files. It could be they load the size per frame. Will still have to investigate that one. If the traffic doesn’t change in the next 2 days, I think I’ll be forced to take down the site for the mean time.
Again, I badly need your help, citizens and non-citizens of the blogosphere! A $1-$5 donation will be a big help. I’m on my knees begging you. PLEASE!
