A Great Honesty..

Despite of all the calamities and problems we are facing now, There are still big Hope for us and Good deeds that deserved to be rewarded.. Alexander "Stitch" Latag another filipino hero..He's working as a waiter in a restaurant in a Mall. While cleaning the table, he found a plastic thinking it was just a garbage but to his surprise, it has a money worth P1M. What he did was find the owner and honestly returned that big amount of money and for this, he was being rewarded a hundred thousand pesos. A big blessing for a job well done! I was wondering.. How many of us could be like Alexander? With this high prices we are experiencing now and great demands in our daily needs, I'm sure a lot of us would decide to keep the money instead..and use it for our own needs..But for Alexander he is a truly an Honest person his first instinct was to find the owner and give back the money.

Alexander gave us another reason to be proud of being a Filipino! (Are you?) well, not all Filipinos are bad. Although Filipinos has gained bad image in other countries, but let us not generalize those feedbacks.. there are still those who we could consider “Good Samaritans” those that has a good heart that could be trusted with pure attitude towards his job, and others. I still hope he could touch others heart with his “Great Honesty” I hope and pray for more Alexanders to come and that this short story could leave a big dot in our hearts and mind. Maybe this could remain as a great lesson for all of us..

In ancient times, it is considered as an art in a human (in nude) body. That's why they consider nude paintings as an art too! Which a lot of us do put malice in every nude pictures or paintings we see. Well, it also depends on how we interpret it. But, body painting is not always large pieces on fully nude bodies, but can involve smaller pieces on displayed areas of otherwise clothed bodies. It is also a form of expressing one's self or emotions..


Body paintings are also used during festivals,ceremonies or any other occasions to symbolize their themes or visions. This involves different materials. Clay for some tribalist cultures used on ceremonies, A semi-permanent form of body painting called Mehndi -on brides they use dyes that is made of henna (called now a "henna tattoo") this is practiced in India and in Middle East, Another is Anatto/Huito or Wet charcoal- a semi-permanent, and it generally takes weeks for this black dye to fade used by the indigenous people of South America then now, clowns and actors use cosmetics to decorate their faces and body on occasions especially on birthday parties.

Dog Euthanasia



Dog Euthanasia means to voluntarily end the life of your dog to put them into a deep sleep. Others do this if their pet is seriously ill or having a behavioral problem instead of killing or throwing them away, they come up into a decision => Dog Euthanasia.

Can you imagine doing this to your dog? they are just like human beings..they also have feelings. They also long for somebody to take care and to love them. For me, it would be very difficult to see dogs being euthanized its an immoral act! Its like murdering your own dog. An animal cruelty! have you ever wondered why they got sick? or behaved that way? Its because of your carelesness..Being a dog owner, one should know the dos and donts. They are generally considered as man's bestfriend therefore, they deserve the best care..

Office Fashion Awareness

Dressing up for work is one of the most important basis for being professional. Try to imagine Having a business of your own representing your own company. Being respected and admired in a business industry. Start to practice professionalism through your physical looks. First impressions do often lasts..


Be sure to wear clean shoes. Hari should be neatly combed. too much make up could make you look too revolting in an office environment and could also distract co-workers or clients and could even create bad feedback unless you are working in a trendy boutique where such fashion statements might be the norm. Try to wear a simple and light make up to presentable.


Jeans could be good as long as it fits your office dress code but not jeans with holes or that grunge look jeans. pair it with a collared shirt or a decent blouse suited for an office. Low cut tops and dresses are absolutely out of the question in an office environment. Not only are they inappropriate, the signals given out by the wearing of such items are not a good idea. As long as you don't create bad feedback with your co-workers especially with men.


Plan ahead of time what to wear at work so, you could have a perfect match or a good fashion sense Also, be aware of the type of skirt or trousers you wear. Some fabrics bag at the seat or knee and look terrible after three hours sitting at a desk. Try to select one that do not bag or crease badly. Those tops or blouses that fasten with buttons should be loose enough to allow plenty of movement and long enough not to expose eight inches of flabby midriff whenever you have to stretch across a desk.


Hands and nails should be checked before going to work. cleanliness comes with fashion as well. And in skirts, splits should be sensible and not expose legs right up to the hip at the slightest
movement.


When it comes to Jewelries, these could make a statement without sounding like the 1812 Overture whenever you move. Jangling bracelets can sound like a trashcan symphony on the other end of the telephone. Strong perfumes and colognes should be avoided at all cost. So many people are allergic to heady perfumes and there are plenty of gentle aromas to choose from which wil not cause discomfort to anyone else.


Lastly, bear in mind to carry a handkerchief or tissue with you. There is nothing worse than having to listen to someone constantly sniffing in the desk next to you. Being comfortable at work would make you more effective in accomplishing all your daily tasks.
