The Genesis of Colors























Look what I found yesterday while driving to work. Rainbow is like a post-it note stuck on your refrigerator's door, like a billboard in the highway, a huge sign of reminder.

Genesis 9:16-17
"16 Whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and all living creatures of every kind on the earth.”  17 So God said to Noah, “This is the sign of the covenant I have established between me and all life on the earth.” 

I just hope the next time you see one, you know why it's there.

MacBook Pro App Must-Haves


A list of must-have apps that I think you should check in addition to what you currently have now:



is a surveillance software for Mac OS X. One of its goals is to add a security layer to Mac notebooks that will enable the owner to get snapshots of persons using the machine, ideally, even after the event of theft. Additionally, it can also verify user logins.




Hidden is a small application which sits idle on your computer unitl you need it. When your computer gets stolen simply login to your online Tracking Control Panel and mark your computer as stolen. Hidden will kick into action and locate your stolen computer anywhere on the planet, collect photos of the thief and screen shots of the computer in use. 



Prey lets you keep track of your phone or laptop at all times, and will help you find it if it ever gets lost or stolen. It's lightweight, open source software, and free for anyone to use. And it just works.

AppCleaner allows you to uninstall your apps easily.

It searches the files created by the applications and you can delete them quickly.

iAlertU

iAlertU is the first of its kind alarm system for your Apple MacBook computer. Basically iAlertU is a car alarm for your Apple Mac. iAlertU uses the built in sudden motion sensor (SMS) device to detect movement of your Apple MacBook and triggers an audible and visual alarm.

The alarm can also be triggered by keyboard and mouse/trackpad movement. The alarm is designed to continue sounding even after the Apple MacBook screen has been closed.

iAlertU is activated and deactivated using the infrared remote control included with every Apple MacBook computer. User adjustable settings let you decide which type of alarm triggers you would like to use, the duration of the alarm, and motion sensor sensitivity.

Clean Air: I Will Miss You


While having nice drives to work during the morning... enjoying the view of sunrise and the morning skies, I always gets distracted by these annoying buses who doesn't know how to drive and vehicles emitting dark vicious and killer smoke!



Would there be any way to report these vehicles who are really just exhausting dark clouds. I was just wondering, weren't they supposed to be handled accordingly during the emission testing???

It just always doesn't miss to ruin my mood everyday to work! :\ 

Somebody suggested this to me: "If the government can't enforce the law the private sector should. We can ban them from entering our villages, schools and our place of business." 
 



It's a nice suggestion I reckon! There's this building in Libis where they put notices of "No Smoking, No spitting and No Chewing of Gum within premises" around their building. I hope private sectors should adapt this (of course, Kudos to Singapore-inspired policy.)

Well, going back to smoke-belching, yea, I hope we can do something about it. While they're taking out trees off the street to provide wider road, they don't care of these smoke-belching vehicles. Oh, clean air, unless we do something about this, we will miss you big time. :| 



*Edit: 
Somebody replied to me with this:
Contact LTO hotline 9229061 - 66 and ask to be connected to Law Enforcement. Give them the plate number(s) of those effin' idiots. 

So today, I've decided to take down their plate numbers and try post or blog it.. hopefully somebody with authority would be able to look into it. Unfortunately, I've decided when I'm already half-way my usual morning ride and so I only got one for today (until further updates):

1. TXP 623 - Safeway Bus - dude, i feel so unsafe with you around!

Pacquiao: Unboxing Ferrari 458 Italia

Manny Pacquiao, the superstar boxer of the Philippines with his new toy.

==========================================
The Ultimate Boxer unBOXING his gift outside the ring. 
==========================================

In MOHO, Pacman is the only Filipino Public Official and celeb that will I never have doubt on where he gets his money to purchase this SWEET car - Ferrari 458 Italia.



Watch the video:



Manny deserves this. He worked hard for it.  The question is, will you bring it to the Philippines though? :]




I'm sure the envious eyes of his contemporaries (public officials and celebs alike) are rolling. Hope Pacman's new ride won't trigger the tainted minds of some officials to improve their corruption strategies and buy themselves one too.
