Goodbye Paputok! A DOH advocacy

"Goodbye Paputok!"  is the Department of Health's (DOH) campaign slogan against the use of firecrackers this new year. 

DOH introduced what it called “the safest firecracker” ever produced. Wrapped in a triangle-shaped paper, reminiscent of the five-star firecracker is a compact-disc containing various sounds of firecrackers. You could play it over your dvd/cd system this coming New Year. 

The APIR Campaign stresses the following safety reminders:

1. Mapanganib ang paggamit ng paputok

2. Lahat ng paputok ay bawal sa mga bata

3. Umiwas sa mga taong nagpapaputok

4. Huwag mamulot ng mga di sumabog na paputok

5. Magpagamot kaagad kapag naputukan.

The DOH urged the audience to act as agents in advocating the safer way of celebrating the New Year by promoting and participating in community fireworks display and street party instead of using dangerous firecrackers.

The DOH wants Filipinos, especially the children, to usher in the new year with their fingers and other body parts intact, thus the campaign.

 

Goodbye Paputok CD  MP3 files can be downloaded from the website of Department of Health  for FREE!

On their page, just look for the "Download Safest Firecrackers Experience" link at the upper right. 

You can also go directly to their Safe Firecracker website at www.safestfirecracker.com

Happy New Year everyone keep safe!!!

 

Iwasan magpa putok~!

RAMGEN REVILLA AND JANELLE MANAHAN VIDEO SCANDAL

A video, tagged as the Ramgen Revilla and Janelle Manahan Scandal, circulated in the internet particularly on Facebook. They were in the bathroom doing it. The said video was deleted around 10:30pm on Thursday, December 29, 2011. Either the uploader deleted it or Facebook took it down due to its contents. 

For sure, copies of the video have made it to people's usb drive's, sd cards, hard drives and to several websites.

Who could have uploaded such video? A lot of people in forums and blogs speculate that a person close to Ramgen Revilla did it. Some say this video is being used against Janelle Manahan to prevent her from testifying.

Ramgen Revilla was brutally murdered last October 28, 2011 while his girlfriend, Janelle Manahan, survived the attack after she was shot twice. 

Ramona Bautista, the only other eyewitness and a suspect and allegedly one of the masterminds in connection with the murder of Ramgen Revilla and frustrated murder of Janelle Manahan, fled to Turkey and is now at-large.

Follow through your dreams.

All of us have dreams. Don't put for tomorrow what you can do today. Make it a habit not to procrastinate because life is short. 

So for 2012 let's all resolve to be better. Don't put off your dreams. Follow Through. Live like today is your last day. Tell those you care about that you love them and how much they mean to you . . . TODAY because you may not get the chance tomorrow. Savor every moment of this beautiful life! And make those dreams come true no matter what!

Here is a story from an unknown author regarding a man on his death bed talking to his unfulfilled dreams.

The Dream

A man lay on his bed at the end of his life waiting to die.

His dream came to pay its last respects and to bid farewell to the man who had never used it. 

As it entered the room the man looked down in shame.

“Why did you not realize me?” the dream asked.

“Because I was afraid,” said the man.

“Afraid of what? Said the dream.

“I was afraid I would fail”.

“But haven’t you failed by not attempting to use me?”

“Yes, I did, but I always thought there would be tomorrow”.

“You fool, said the dream, did it never occur to you that there was only ever today?”

“The moment you are in right now?”

“Do you think that now that death is here that you can put it off until tomorrow?”

“No.” said the man, a tear gently rolling down his cheek.

The dream was softer now, because it knew that there were two types of pain, the pain of 

discipline, and the pain of regret, and while discipline weighs ounces, regret weighs pounds.

Then the dream leaned forward to gently wipe away the tear and said,” You need only have 

taken the first step and I would have taken one to meet you, for the only thing that ever 

separated us, was the belief in your mind that you couldn’t have me.”

Then they said goodbye, and they both died unfulfilled.

TYRONE PEREZ FOUND DEAD

Tyrone Perez was found dead at the backseat of a black Toyota Altis parked along the service road of the North Luzon Expressway in the vicinity of Barangay Ugong, Valenzuela.

Perez died of a gunshot wound on the right side of his head from a caliber .22 firearm. The gun was found beside his body. Tyron Perez is only 26 years old.

Police said they are looking at the possibility that the wound may have been self-inflicted. Investigations are still ongoing.

Tyron Perez lives in Parañaque and reportedly spent Christmas holidays with a close friend in Barangay Ugong. The cause of death is still unknown.

AJ Perez and Tyrone Perez.  Same actor, Same Last Name, Same year of death and same place where they died - (Inside a vehicle). May you RIP Tyrone Perez.

Tyron Perez tied the knot with his non-showbiz girlfriend Liv Espino last May 27, 2009 in a simple civil wedding. 

During the "Traverse Ilocos Sur adventure challenge" last December 17, 2011 Pep asked him on what his christmas plans were, "Wala pang plano dahil may trabaho. Magkalayo kasi kami, e. Flight attendant siya, e." He also added "Ang mas naging maganda sa amin, sobrang miss na miss mo ang pagkakataon na makasama mo siya. Hindi tulad ng magkasama kayo every day, medyo nawawala, hindi na gano'n kasaya. May ganun, e."

Liv Espino: "Tyron‘s public viewing will start at 12pm today until 1st of Jan, 2012 at Loyola Memorial Park, Sucat, Paranaque City. Thank you!!"
