Lindsay Lohan Dead: Rumor

Rumors saying that Lindsay Lohan's dead is not true. This rumor has been circulating the web is based on a fake twitter account. It has been reported that Kim Kardashian asked on her Twitter if Lohan was really dead. But it was a fake Twitter account so the Lohan rumor was quickly dismissed.

According to the Kardashian's fake Twitter, "OMG! Is Lindsay Lohan really dead? I keep hearing this rumors from my friends and stuff! Is it true?" Nonetheless, the real account doesn't say anything about the matter.

Well, it's not only Lohan who had been victimized with this kind of scandal. Young and hot celebs such as Miley Cyrus, Justin Bieber and Robert Pattinson are just among the victims.

Ampatuan Surrenders | Ampatuan Now in Metro Manila

The prime suspect to the Maguindanao massacre has finally surrendered and is currently in Fort Bonifacio.

Datu Unsay Mayor Andal Ampatuan Jr., the son of Maguindanao Governor Andal Ampatuan Sr., has been identified as the head of the Monday's massacre of at least 57 people in Maguindanao province.

The crime that was said to root from the political conflict between two prominent and rich clan in Maguindao could lead or could have had caused a brewing Rido or what they call as "ubusan ng lahi (an armed hostilities between families and kinship groups)". This may just be the first part of the election violence that can heighten as the election nears and as the number of victims increases. The victims of the brutal and ruthless killings include civilians, journalists who were assigned to cover the filing of candidacy for governor of Mayor Esmael Mangudadatu, a former ally-turned-political rival of the Ampatuans.

Ampatuan is set to be detained in NBI prison and just a few minutes ago, arrived at the Fort Bonifacio through Philippine Air Force plane. He was escorted by two NBI guards, holding him on his shoulders but without any handcuffs. Earlier this afternoon, he was handed over to DOJ Justice Secretary Agnes Devanadera who brought him to Manila.

Amelia Earhart Eaten by Coconut Crabs?

Whatever happened to Amelia Earhart is a great mystery. She, who attempted to circumnavigate the globe, disappeared over the central Pacific Ocean near Howland Island. A group of researchers claims to have found the very spot where she mysteriously vanished and says that she landed on an atoll called Nikumaroro – part of the Phoenix Islands, Kiribati.

And where is the body? According to Richard Gillespie, TIGHAR’s executive director, "If Amelia died on Nikumaroro, her body was eaten by crabs. That's pretty much a given.” Coconut crabs are said to be living in the Nikumaroro. They are the largest land-living athropod which have huge claws which can actually break open a coconut in half, thus the name.

Only the Coconut Crabs Really Know Where Amelia Earhart Is Jaunted

Orionid Meteor Shower Tonight!



It's going to rain meteors tonight! Peak view times of the Orionid meteor shower will be tonight (October 20, 2009) until Wednesday (October 21, 2009) morning.

The Orionid meteor shower occurs when Earth passes through comet debris left by the Halley's comet. If we are lucky enough to have a darker and clearer sky tonight, more stars will be out and visible. It is expected that shooting stars will appear in the sky every hour. The best time to look for these meteors is between midnight (1 a.m. daylight savings time) and dawn of the next day.

So yes, prepare your hundreds of wishes!

Gravity is working against me

Gravity is working against me
And gravity wants to bring me down
Oh I'll never know what makes this man
With all the love that his heart can stand
Dream of ways to throw it all away
Oh Gravity is working against me
And gravity wants to bring me down
Oh twice as much ain't twice as good
And can't sustain like one half could
It's wanting more
That's gonna send me to my knees
Oh gravity, stay the hell away from me
And gravity has taken better men than me
Now how can that be?
Just keep me where the light is
Just keep me where the light is
Just keep me where the light is
C'mon keep me where the light is
C'mon keep me where the light is
Oh... where the light is

Google Wave: Ride the Wave | Invites


Google Wave, according to Google, is an online communication and collaboration tool where where people can discuss and work together through text, photos, videos, and more. It's basically a protocol designed to combine social networking (facebook!), online forums, emails, IMs, wikis and the like. It is even predicted that people or the millions of web surfers would just be content to "ride the wave". Key technologies of the Wave include Natural language processors, Real-time collaboration and it could add live social gadgets.



Initially, 100,000 users were given the chance to use it and each of them were allowed to invite up to eight more users. If you're lucky, then you must have the controversial Wave account (Apparently, I'm not that lucky T_T). Even hundreds are willing to pay just to have the account.

Motorola Droid Phone

Introducing the phone where the advertisement says it can do "everything iDon't". They say it's the new challenge for the iPhone. Well it might be the phone of the 2010! This would be the first ever Verizon android phone which I'm not sure if just the same with the Sholes and the Tao.



I have seen the droiddoes.com. It says that Droid is your robot sidekick that lives in your pocket, that moves at light speed, and could get you out of any problem. Here's some of the phones features:




  • Multitasking

  • High-speed

  • High-resolution

  • 5 megapixels

  • Android 2.0

  • Speech recognition

  • Directions

  • Tunes

  • Videos

  • 10,000 applications

  • Notification panel

  • Network


If it's all true, I think it's definitely a must-have. :)

Ralph Lauren Model Fired For Being Too Fat


A former Ralph Lauren model, Filippa Hamilton, revealed that she was fired for being too fat. She reasoned, "They fired me because they said I was overweight and I couldn't fit in their clothes anymore". She was recently pictured in a Japanese magazine with an edited photo which she thought was very disappointing.

Now her photo spreads in the Internet and all she wants is a big apology from the company. "I saw my face on this super extremely skinny girl, which is not me. It makes me sad. It makes me think that Ralph Lauren wants to have this kind of image... It's not healthy and it's not right.", told Hamilton in Today.
