Feel Beautiful Inside and Out

Friday, February 06, 2009

I just got in from the gym and a lot of people were there in a Friday afternoon. I guess they also are like me shedding those extra pounds gained over the holidays. Yeah it’s already February and the weight is still there. Nobody could take it off in a week of course because just like ordinary people we still have to eat. Yo-yo diets abound the regimen of guys and gals who spend hours there but I’m quite optimistic that I’ll still be losing a lot once I get serious about it.

We’ve been seeing posts here in my site lately about medical procedures to make people look good. I’ve got nothing against it really but maybe in a conservative point of view I would not want to meddle with what God has already given me. Sometimes though I keep thinking about the money I spend each month for the gym. What if I just save that money and once I get into 6 digits try other options like liposuction and some non surgical procedure to trim down. I still see Mom’s in the gym that had their nose jobs and you know what done to them. As far as I’m concerned as long as they don’t look silly and it would help them be youthful looking then I’m okay with that. There are those who take it too far to the point of addiction, but that’s just plain dangerous and I would not recommend anyone to do that.

The government is even endorsing medical tourism that includes surgical enhancements. This is also good for the economy because it would cost relatively 90% cheaper here than if you do it in the United States. But of course you should always do it where you’re confident and feel safe. Like the botox new hampshire clinics offers; if you live in the vicinity and know local doctors that can do it for you then by all means do it there. Nobody would want to end up in a fly by night hospital that has no experience whatsoever with these complicated surgeries. These are major operations by the way because it does not only need local anesthesia; it makes use of general anesthesia and needs a couple of months or weeks to recover. Make sure you know what you are doing if you plan to go under the knife. Check out the best doctors and surgeons at http://www.plasticsurgerypa.com and avail their state of the art plastic surgery services. The result is always going to be permanent and you know that. I also wish that no matter what people do to their physical appearance, they should always stay beautiful inside and out.

Meralco Electricity Rates Go Down, Water Rates Go Up!

The Horror Continues!

Manila Electric Company rates will go down this month while Water rates will go up. There will be a 5 centavo deduction per kilowatt hour in the power rates or about 10 pesos for households that consume 200 Kwatts per month. This was explained by Meralco Chief for Utility Economics Ivanna de la Pena that due to the lower Generation Rate Adjustment Mechanism (GRAM) of lower electricity costs because of the worst winter elsewhere in the world. The rate adjustments appear to be temporary as March approaches for the Summer Season so don't rejoice yet!

Manila Water and Maynilad on the other hand will be raising prices in the last week of this month. This is because of the automatic adjustment for inflation at recovery ng foreign exchange losses and does not reflect the basic rates. Manila Water will be raising 12.2 percent consumer price index adjustment and about 1.03 percent foreign currency differential adjustment. Will this mean there will be adjustments over adjustments and adjustments? Hahaha...

Manila Water's adjustment will be P2.27 per cubic meter while P2.81 per cubic meter will be for Maynilad rates. Prices will take effect 15 days from notice... so that started this Thursday... and the horror will start on the 26th.

Web Hosting Beauty and Madness


I’ve been running my website for almost four years. My life expectancy is a little over than that so I don’t want to waste time thinking about who would host my site if I plan to do so. I’ve had free ones and I’ve got paid ones for my projects. I don’t however the perseverance and have each transaction be problematic because I don’t have enough bandwidth, space for images and email storage.

You know, there’s such a thing as the horror of getting the DNS and the IP settings of your original domain so you could get the original content of your current site and have those transferred to the customized URL. I had first hand experience over that and I couldn’t even get my site working to at least see some of the content exist in cyberspace. I’ve had a few days of sorrowful evenings because I felt I didn’t exist in the Internet. My images also were big and the containment unit of the host was limited so I didn’t have the services to get my place up and running. I had to consult a few people (office mates) on what easy service I could get so I wouldn’t have an arduous time configuring major geek level web settings. I even lost my site settings in the process too so I had to get a new template for it. Imagine the days and hours just to get that back.

So I stopped by a website that called http://www.top10webhosting.com/ that listed everything that I needed. It even gave me options to choose different web hosting services that are extremely affordable and would not hurt my budget. I was only starting then and I needed something to at least tell me the tale of what to spend and what I should get. Get the latest and best web hosts you can get below $5 dollars. I’m sure you’ll like them a lot better than expensive ones that never worked!
