The Peculiar Maiden Goddess





Wazzup Pilipinas!

Every girl dreams of growing up, getting married and having a family of their own, right?

Not exactly.

Some girls want to experience motherhood, but some would rather stay as young women who are free from men. And there’s one goddess in particular, who isn’t quite fond of men herself, besides her twin brother and some of the other deities of course. Rather, she’d be much more comfortable out in the woods, hunting game.

The goddess Artemis, also known as Diana by the Romans, is the patron of the wilderness and girls in general. Her mother is the goddess Leto and her father is the king of the gods Zeus while her twin brother, the sun god, is Apollo. For a virgin goddess, she is surprisingly, also the patron of childbirth. Imagine that! A maiden goddess who patrons women who are giving birth or a pregnant. It was quite the odd addition to her myth, but that’s what makes her an interesting figure.


Billy Joe Crawford Cries Foul Online Over Coleen Garcia Linkage


Wazzup Pilipinas!

"Happiest Birthday to my best friend, my happy thought, my dream come true @billyjoecrawford. ❤ You are a blessing to everyone around you. I love you! PS These photos still make me swoon every time I see them 😍 #TheHumstermeier"

That was the instagram message of Nikki Gil a few months ago. It seems they were so much in love back then. Well, that's for Nikki Gil. I do not really know what's going on in Billy Joe Crawford's mind right now. It is so sad that they have to break-up for very unclear reasons that both parties would want to keep private to themselves. However Billy Joe Crawford says it's all him.

Recently, Billy Joe Crawford had an outburst in one of his social media account. He was crying foul to the people who were linking him with Coleen Garcia. It originated from a photo that was posted online showing all the It's Showtimne members except for Billy Joe Crawford and Coleen Garcia. This led followers an online critics speculate that the two may be out somewhere together.

Jeane Lim Napoles : You Are So Hot! You Are Jampacked with Awesomeness!


 
Wazzup Pilipinas!

Mother scammer Napoles' daughter's party... Lookey-lookey at the video below how they spent their so-called billion-peso kickbacks... Aaaarrrrrgggghhhhhhh!
 "YOU LOOK SO HOTTTT!" YOU LOOK SO HOT IN THE EYES OF THE FILIPINO PEOPLE. SHAME ON YOU JEANE LIM NAPOLES!
 
That's our hard earned money via tax... amp! I vote for tax revolt... scrap PDAF!
Though a tax revolt sounds nice, it doesn't do a lot for those of us whose taxes are automatically deducted from our paychecks before we get our hands on our own money.

What I'm wondering is that does Jeane ever know where her parents got the money? If no, then I wonder how will she feel and what will she do if she found out?

But if yes and she deliberately did it with her parents, I'm guessing she can be arrested as well, now that she's 21 (so I'm guessing the good thing about this video is that it shows she can now be, well, arrested. Nyahahahahahaha! XD).

Passengers at NAIA Are Forced to Use Yellow Taxi



Wazzup Pilipinas!


Regarding possible corruption at NAIA, just recently a group of affected travelers signed and submitted a complaint to NAIA management authorities. Travelers are forced to use a monopoly by the Yellow Taxi Cab operator that is favored by NAIA. This causes undue hardship to the arriving travelers who opt not to patronize Yellow Taxi for various reasons of their own.

Yellow Taxi charges an exorbitant amount compared to the regular taxi fare that travelers would have to pay. So, travelers are forced to walk a long distance with all their belongings towards the area where they may be able to flag down regular taxi cabs.

The closest gate to exit Terminal 3 on foot has been closed for some years and it is not permitted for passengers to use this exit. I would like to see the gate at the nearest exit unlocked so passengers can hail a cab on the nearby road.

This very clearly shows a blatant disregard of the travelers' rights and an attempt to make a stranglehold so that travelers have no option but to take Yellow Taxi which is positioned so that it is immediately available right out of the nearest door as they exit the airport. This smacks of illegal activity between the Yellow Taxi Cab Operator and NAIA authorities.

Rhea : The Great Mother




Wazzup Pilipinas!

RHEA was the Titanis mother of the gods, and a goddess of female fertility, motherhood, and generation. Her name means "flow" and "ease."

As the wife of Kronos (Time), she represented the eternal flow of time and generations; as the great Mother (Meter Megale), the "flow" was menstrual blood, birth waters, and milk. She was also a goddess of ease, a blessing reflected in the common Homeric phrase "the gods who live at their ease (rhea)."

In myth, Rhea was the wife of the Titan Kronos and Queen of heaven. When her husband heard a prophecy that he would be deposed by one of his children, he took to swallowing each of them as soon as they were born.

Hades : God of the Underworld



Wazzup Pilipinas!

Hades, who is Hades? He was the King of the Underworld, the god of death and the dead. He presided over funeral rites and defended the right of the dead to due burial.

Hades was also the god of the hidden wealth of the Earth, from the fertile soil with nourished the seed-grain, to the mined wealth of gold, silver and other metals.
He is the brother of Zeus and Poseidon, and therefore from the first generation of Olympian Gods. He is the son of Cronus and Rhea his brothers are Zeus and Poseidon.

They all drew lots to determine which part of the world they would rule. Zeus get the sky and Poseidon received the sea. And Hades was left with the underworld.



The Top 10 Requests of Bloggers (and Everyone Else in Media)


Wazzup Pilipinas!

Quickly.... from whatever comes to mind first...I search the inner recesses of my brains ....trying to tap my memories and experiences when I attend events meant for bloggers and/or members of tri-media.

The complaints, rants, and requests are all the same. Whether for print, TV, radio, or online media. There is nothing separating them anymore (OK... may be there's a fine line between tri-media and online media). We are now talking of the same people, with same goals and needs - to cover the news and share it with the world - but to get something in return. After all, being a member of the media is extremely hard work and we also have bills to pay.

Whether you want to admit it or not, each one of us wants to be rewarded or compensated for our efforts. "Hindi naman pwedeng palaging TY at libre na lang ate".

Media people (online or offline) all deserve and expect respect. They are not here to become charitable institutions. It's work for most of them. It's nice when you are acknowledged for being supportive, but it's awesome if you get to enjoy some blessings.


Here are some of the requests we hear that we hope the establishments will grant to our vigilant media men.


Claudine Barretto Is A Battered Wife : Di Nga? This Must Be a Typo!


Wazzup Pilipinas!

Atty. Ferdinand Topacio said that Caludine Barretto has been suffering as early as 2005 from co-celebrity husband Raymart Santiago saying she is a battered wife physically, emotionally, psychologically and even "economically".

"Ayon sa aking kliyente, 2005 pa ay mayroon nang ganitong mga acts ngunit dahil nga sa pagmamahal niya noon kay Raymart at nung magkaroon sila ng mga anak, tiniis niya until it came to a point na hindi na niya kayang tiisin," he said.

Whoah!! Si Claudine Barretto ay isang battered wife?

Teka...I still remember Claudine Barretto helplessly beating up a man twice or thrice her age at the NAIA Terminal 3. Do you still remember her battle against the Tulfo Brothers?

Parang mas mukhang battered husband si Raymart Santiago ah.

Liz Uy and What Keeps Her Moving : An Interview with a Rising Trendsetter


Wazzup Pilipinas!

She’s tinsel town’s newest it-girl. And she’s everywhere—from billboards to glossies to the blogosphere, Liz Uy continues to fascinate with her eye for all things stylish. From being a magazine editor and celebrity stylist, Liz has become a star on her own with a multitude of endorsements under her hat.

During a hectic day with a schedule of a celebrity stylist, Liz needs an efficient smartphone partner and a reliable data connection to keep up with the demands of her fast-paced lifestyle. Both of which, she found in BlackBerry Z10 and Globe Telecom.


Describe your day.

On a typical day, as soon as the alarm rings, I check my BlackBerry Z10 to review my to-do list for the day. Then, I get ready, usually I try and keep it pretty structured with some comfort since my day ahead involves meetings, pullouts, and shoots; coordinating with my team and so on, so I like to find outfits that will take me through the day. After work, I make time to work out and stay fit.

Jeane Lim Napoles : Enjoying Pork Barrel Perks and Privileges


Wazzup Pilipinas!

She is Jeane Lim Napoles, daughter of Janet Lim-Napoles, the woman now tagged as the "mother of P10-billion pork barrel scandal."

She poses with celebrities? Hahaha! Cheap! If I have the same net worth, I'd be partying with them. LOL! But I'm doing that now to some extent even with significantly lower "wealth".

The following statement below is a repost from a blogsite whose link is posted way down below. I thought it best to share it in my blog as it is obviously a hate blog.

If these were all true despite claims of having acquired their wealth through business partnerships in Indonesia, I pray that the law catches up with them and give justice to the millions of suffering Filipinos!
