No truth to End of the World on May 21, 2011, PAGASA states!

noreply@blogger.com (infoblogger) — Fri, 20 May 2011 02:32:52 PDT

Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) scientist Mario Raymundo said that there is no astronomical event that can be associated with the prediction of US evangelical Christian broadcaster Harold Camping that the world would end on May 21, 2011.

“The planetary alignment is too far to affect us. As for his prediction of a massive quake, there is no basis for it. It won’t happen. This is not true,” he said. Harold Camping, 89, head of the Christian radio network Family Stations Inc. previously made a failed prediction that Jesus Christ would return to Earth in 1994.

Phil Younghusband, BlackBerry Messenger's latest advocate!

noreply@blogger.com (infoblogger) — Wed, 18 May 2011 09:36:28 PDT

Phil Younghusband, the Fil-British star midfielder of the Philippine seniors’ national football team, is the latest advocate of BlackBerry® Messenger (BBM™), the highly popular mobile social network for the global BlackBerry® community.

Phil grew up living and breathing football. Football is his avenue for self-expression, which he feels is the reason behind his mad love for BBM.

When Phil gets off the football field, the first thing he checks is his BBM. “I’d get congratulations, you played well, or you didn’t play so well. It is a good way to communicate and let friends and family know how I feel after a game,” Phil said. “I can send unlimited messages without worrying about SMS fees,” he added.

Phil loves expressing himself using emoticons on BBM. “You can make someone smile by using emoticons,” he said. “There are so many ways you can express yourself on BBM.”

Nowadays, he gets to share his passion for football with the youth through The Younghusband Football Academy. “I need to coordinate with a lot of people, coaches, management, and players. BBM gives me the opportunity. It’s so easy to use and keeps me connected.”

With more than 43 million people actively using the service around the world and an astounding 2,500 new users being added every hour, BBM is the world’s largest mobile social network platform.

“Don’t be afraid of who you are; don’t be afraid to express yourself,” Phil is an advocate of being true to one’s self and doing what one loves to do.

Rachel McAdams is on the cover of ELLE Magazine!

noreply@blogger.com (infoblogger) — Wed, 11 May 2011 07:38:22 PDT

Rachel McAdams is on the cover of ELLE Magazine for its June 2011 issue!

Here are some highlights from the interview:

On working with Owen Wilson: “It’s definitely a different dynamic from the last time we were together. It wasn’t as fun being mean. I love that Woody likes good guys to be good guys and bad guys to be bad guys. Owen seemed to respond really well when I was a really bad guy.”

On her role in Mean Girls: “With Mean Girls, I originally auditioned for the part that Lindsay Lohan played. I wouldn’t have seen myself playing Regina at all. But when I read the script, I thought, Oh, this part is way more fun; I wonder who will play that.…”

On being a romantic: “I am. When Billie Holiday comes on, I can’t help but be transported—and I’m sure it wasn’t as romantic then at all—but that’s the wonderful part of my job: dressing up and walking down the street in New York or Toronto, pretending I’m in the ’40s.”

On finding inspiration in her parents’ marriage: “[They are] Still together and still in love. I’m very blessed that way. I had a great example of love in front of me, and that’s probably what makes me such a romantic, because I’ve seen it firsthand.”

On her expectations for relationships: “You grow up and you assume that everyone is like that, and you quickly realize that they’re not, and then you have those days when you wonder if you’re going to find it for yourself. It’s such a hard thing to find. I think it was more that realization that rocked me.”

On being hesitant to take on certain roles: “Sometimes I don’t think I’m the best person for the job. That was the case with Morning Glory. Sometimes I think, Really? You see me as this? Just because I don’t see myself that way, does that mean I shouldn’t do it? I tend to go, Is this the right decision? What are the ramifications of doing this part? You can start to overanalyze. But once I make the decision, it’s full steam ahead.”

On the critics’ reaction to Morning Glory: “It’s funny, because so many people said to me, “It’s the kind of film you don’t see anymore, done in a way that isn’t done anymore.” I thought that was a really positive thing, but apparently not. I only hear these businesspeople: “Well, no one was sure who it was for.”

Katy Perry exposes her cleavage on the cover of Vanity Fair Magazine!

noreply@blogger.com (infoblogger) — Sat, 07 May 2011 05:02:42 PDT

Katy Perry daringly expose her cleavage on the cover of Vanity Fair Magazine’s June 2011 issue!

Here are some excerpts from the interview:

On her religious upbringing:

“I come from a very non-accepting family, but I’m very accepting,” Perry says of her religious beliefs as an adult. “Russell is into Hinduism, and I’m not [really] involved in it. He meditates in the morning and the evening; I’m starting to do it more because it really centers me. [But] I just let him be him, and he lets me be me.” Perry says she didn’t stick with the mold growing up. “I have always been the kid who’s asked ‘Why?’ In my faith, you’re just supposed to have faith. But I was always like…why?” she says. “At this point, I’m just kind of a drifter. I’m open to possibility…. My sponge is so big and wide and I’m soaking everything up and my mind has been radically expanded. Just being around different cultures and people and their opinions and perspectives. Just looking into the sky.”

On her parents:

“I think sometimes when children grow up, their parents grow up,” Perry says of her evangelical-minister parents. “Mine grew up with me. We coexist. I don’t try to change them anymore, and I don’t think they try to change me. We agree to disagree. They’re excited about [my success]. They’re happy that things are going well for their three children and that they’re not on drugs. Or in prison.” Perry’s mother confirms that she is proud of her daughter’s success, telling Robinson, “The Lord told us when I was pregnant with her that she would do this.”

“I didn’t have a childhood,” she says, adding that her mother never read her any books except the Bible, and that she wasn’t allowed to say “deviled eggs” or “Dirt Devil.” Perry wasn’t even allowed to listen to secular music and relied on friends to sneak her CDs. “Growing up, seeing Planned Parenthood, it was considered like the abortion clinic,” she tells Robinson. “I was always scared I was going to get bombed when I was there…. I didn’t know it was more than that, that it was for women and their needs. I didn’t have insurance, so I went there and I learned about birth control.”

On her husband Russell Brand:

Perry says that there is “never a dull moment” and that Brand has “never lied to me once. I trust him; there’s just a level of trust that we’ve built up.” When asked about the infamous photo Brand tweeted of her without makeup in the middle of the night, Perry laughs it off. “We were just messing around,” she says, “I didn’t really care. I mean, when I go to rehearsals I look like that. I’m every woman. It takes a village to make me who I am…. You don’t have to wake up looking like, you know, Gisele.”

On being married in the public eye:

“The press is just not your friend when it comes to a marriage,” Perry explains of her need for privacy in her relationship with Brand. “That’s why we didn’t sell the pictures of our wedding, and we got offered millions of dollars for them, millions.” Why not take the money and give it to charity? Robinson asks. “Well, I can always do that later for something else; maybe if I have a child,” Perry says. “But I’ve seen too much of it with other people—it’s the wrong kind of attention. It detracts from the reason why you exist. We wanted that moment to ourselves.” After ultimately showing a clip of her wedding video at the Grammys, Perry tells Robinson she did it “because I felt the moment was right and not forced. Russell and I had time to savor our moment privately first and then share it with people when we were ready, and not for a paycheck. I loved the idea, because I thought it was beautiful and artistically accompanied the song I wrote for him. Plus, it was Valentine’s eve!”

On the gossip:

“I don’t care what people say about my relationship; I don’t care what they say about my boobs. People are buying my songs; I have a sold-out tour. I’m getting incredible feedback from my music.” But despite her immense fame, Perry never forgets what it took to get to where she is. “I don’t take anything for granted,” she says. “There are 500 other girls right behind me. And I know that, because I was one of them. I remember what it’s like to be someone who’s always trying to get there—sending out tons of e-mails … trying to connect with some person who could connect me with some other person. And I wouldn’t be working at this pace now if I didn’t truly know that fame is fleeting.”
