  1. the idea in the "Back to the Future 2" is so futuristic that i can't comment if that is possible.but there are other convenient ways to replace the use of oil and gasolines. i saw it on tv that a Filipino invented a car that uses water to make the engine run instead of gas. But i'm not so sure if it was developed fully. But i discovered that he sold his invention to some other asian countries because the philippine government didn't gave his invention enough attention and didn't gave him enough budget to fully develop him brilliant invention.
  2. its not that i'm with bush neither with our president here in the philippines but it seems that any country would never ran out of people critizing the government. eventhough bush gets over with his reign as president, and another president shows up, there will still be people critizing his morals and his work. like here in the philippines, when another president was elected, they try and try to make ways to end that reign. and when they succeeded, and another president was elected, they still do what they always do, make ways to destroy that president. But eventhough it seems like i'm on the presidents' side, don't get me wrong, the president here now in the philippines, sucks! (compared to the presidents before her) hehe
  3. I think it is possible. Like most said, google, yahoo, myspace, and many got rich because of the internet.But it is really difficult though. you have to think of something that would click and would really las for a long time. although, once you hit the jackpot, it is really a big jackpot.
  4. I think that the world would be better having a religion. But at some point i think that not having a religion would somehow make things better. for example in india..India is one of the poorest countries today. Know why? well, i don't know all the reasons affecting why the country is poor but i do know one of the main reasons why they're poor. It is because of RELIGION. Their religion keeps them from innovating the way they live. But the main reason why i think the world would still be better with religion is that, people would be nicer with it.See real or not, the good thing about religion is that it keeps people; -afraid of the punishment they'll get afterlife if they commit sins against god and other people-and love the reward they'll get afterlife if they did good things to their fellow people and to god. so by that, they resist to dig in to the temptations the world offers and become good people. and also, religion gives people hope for something wonderful to happen, thus it will make them persue more.
  5. yeah, yeah. yeah.. another date bug among computers.. i learned my lesson, before the year 2000 started people are always talking about the y2k bug. and believe me, the people isn't just talking of a simple computer bug but instead they were super exaggerating it. They think that all the computers would stop functioning.. they were mainly talking about the computers in the bank, in the power stations, in the security systems whatsoever.. and by that, they think when it happens, the people wouldn't be able to get their money from the banks, no business will happen and then it all ends up in great chaos thus the beginning of the end of the world. people started to stock food and all they need to survive in their homes and it was just crazy. and by being just a kid, i believed the adults and the media. so i was scared then. but then the year 2000 comes and then tadah! nothing happened. so now that i'm no longer a kid, i wouldn't believe such crap anymore. and will carefully learn and understand things first before i believe them.
  6. No offence but maybe you were born with hay like hair? because i do all these things and my hair looks really great. i wonder what went wrong with yours?
  7. Here are some basic hair care tips that you can use to improve the health and look of your hair. **Okay, in my research, i make sure that i put in some of the basics and not make it look like i'm selling hair products.**First and Foremost, the most basic of all----A healthy lifestyle will mean healthier hair for you. Excessive stress, smoking, not exercising and not eating nutritiously are not healthy for your hair. And of course get enough sleep. About hair products (Gel, mouse, hair spary...)--Avoid using hair styling products with alcohol which dries out hair. Avoid puting hair styling products directly on your scalp, if you put it on your scalp you'll clog the pores on your head. While swimming,--Before entering a pool, wet your hair so your hair will soak up the initial water instead of the chlorinated water. When swimming where a cap to protect your hair from chlorinated water, if you choose not to wear a cap make sure you shampoo and condition your hair right after you are done swimming. Do this so that you will not make your hair super dry even after shower.Drying--As we all know, hot air can be damaging to your hair so when using a hair dryer use the cool setting. Don't leave the blowdryer in one spot for more than a few seconds, keep it moving and at a good distance away from your hair. But here in the Philippines, we have the things caleed "electric fans" so we use them instead.--To speed up the drying process, pat your hair dry with a towell and let the remaining moisture in your hair dry naturally. Never ever dry your hair using the towel as if your rubbing it in your body. Remember, just tap the towel to your hair gently.--Gently use your fingers or a pick to untangle any knots while your hair is drying. Never get wild with your comb in untangling your hair.
  8. hair is very important to some people, maybe because it can dictate what we look like and what other's will think of us. Actually some people base our personality with the way we style our hair. So maybe it is just right if we could know more something about our hair.If you're wondering on what the hair is made up, well, based on my research, the chemical composition of hair is : **Carbon 45%, Oxygen 27%, Nitrogen15%, Hydrogen 6%, Sulphur 5%.****Each hair on your body grows from its own individual hair follicle. Inside the follicle, new hair cells form at the root of the hair shaft. As the cells form, they push older cells out of the follicle. As they are pushed out, the cells die and become the hair we see. A "follicle" will make new cells for a certain period of time depending on where it is located on your body. This period is called the growth phase. Then it will stop for a period of time (the rest phase-- this is why sometimes, it seems that our hair grows too slow unlike some years. and here in the philippines they usually blame it on the barber, thinking that the barber did something wrong while cutting their hair.), and then restart the growth phase again. When the hair follicle enters the rest phase, the hair shaft breaks, so the existing hair falls out and a new hair takes its place. Therefore, the length of time that the hair is able to spend growing during the growth phase controls the maximum length of the hair. The cells that make the hairs on your arms are programmed to stop growing every couple of months, so the hair on your arms stays short, thankfully! The hair follicles on your head, on the other hand, are programmed to let hair grow for years at a time, so the hair can grow very long. i also learned that the growth of our hair varies in different races. in what i read, the asian hair is the fastest growing hair among the races. it can grow about 1.5cm a month while the caucasian hair is the second ranging about 1.2cms a month and the slowest growthrate of hair is the african hair that usually grows 0.8cm a month.
  9. Maybe you have already heard about the Opera browser and maybe some are already using it now. But for some that don't have any idea on what it's about, well let me do the honors...Opera is a browser. You can download it on Opera.comanyways, what i like about this browser is that you can easilly download nice looking opera skins for free. Aside from that, it has BitTorrent---You don't need a separate BitTorrent application to download large files. Simply click a torrent link and start the download.-- it means that if you're downloading, you won't be bothered by a seperate download window hanging around your screen unlike that of internet explorer. and the other features you can see at their site. so its up to you. well, i'm not forcing you to try it cause i'm really not hired to do this. anyways, this forum is about sharing things you know so i might as well share it with you.
  10. Don't get me wrong okay, I'm not a transgender, I'm straight okay.You can always hear transexuals, as we all know transexuals are people who undergoes operations to change their sexualities. It may seem similar to transgender, but it has a close but different meanings. TRANSGENDER are people who, at a young age feels that they were born on the wrong type of body. Example:- 4 year old boy who is insisting that he is not a boy but a girl born in the wrong kind of body. - 7 year old girl insisting that she is not actually a girl but a boy trapped in a girls body. and her parents wouldn't let her to be what she wants to instead, she wrote a letter to her parents threatening her own life saying, mom and dad, i don't wanna be like this, i know that you can't let me be a real boy so maybe it will be a lot easier if i'll be dead and be in heaven. so her parents let her be what she wanted to be, a boy. **actually we can't blame them for being that. because--researchers say that the "transgenderness" happened when the baby is still in the mother womb. it happened during the first quarter of the development of the baby. It's brain developed being a girl or a boy but it's body developed opposite of that of the brain. so what happens is that when the child has gained conciousness about itself, they start to think that they were born on the wrong kind of body. **so we reaalllly can't blame them because it's not there fault to be transgender and by being trangender, they eventually begin to undergo operations to make them what they think they were. cause it will be easier to change the body than the brain. so as i said, they become transexual. (i learned all that in OPRAH!)
