Mark Dizon, suspect killer of 9 people, including 3 foreigners and 6 Filipinos in just two weeks time, is finally caught today in a hotel in San Fernando, La Union.

Few days ago, it was reported that his family was already negotiating his surrender to the police, but he was able to escape.  As shown in the picture, he is armed with a 9mm automatic pistol with silencer.

Pilipinas Got Talent Grand Winner Jovit Baldovino is being compared to Journey’s front man, Arnel Pineda.

Many were amazed by Jovit’s harsh and round voice especially when he sung Faithfully, Journey’s trademark song, during his audition. He admires Arnel Pineda and Journey so he sings their songs and uploaded them on YouTube, thus he became the newest YouTube sensation.

On the other hand, Arnel Pineda is also Filipino’s pride when he was discovered via YouTube and became Journey’s lead vocalist.

What if these two great singers will have a showdown? Jovit cannot reach high notes unlike Arnel Pineda. But Arnel Pineda’s words are sometimes inaudible. Will the super rookie Jovit Baldovino beats world-class singer Arnel Pineda? Hope they’ll have a singing showdown even just in ASAP XV.

Batangas’ pride, Jovit Baldovino, is the first Grand winner of Pilipinas Got Talent . Pilipinas Got Talent is Philippine’s franchise from the producer of Britain’s Got Talent.

The other two top finalists were the Velasco brothers and Baguio Metamorphosis. Velasco brothers deserve to be in the top 3 but I don’t think Baguio Meta is. In my point of view, Jeline, the 12 year old wonder child who plays a lot of musical instruments should be part of the top 3 instead.

Somehow, Jovit Baldovino is worthy of the title to be the first Pilipinas Got Talent winner.

ABS-CBN’s Primetime Agua Bendita’s new theme song “Falling in Love” is sung by local band Six Part Invention. Here’s the video and lyrics:

Filipina You Tube sensation Charice Pempengco’s Pyramid feat. Iyaz is making waves at Billboard 100. Here’s the lyrics:

Shawty’s love is like a pyramid (ooh)
We stand together till the very end (eh ooh)
There’ll never be another love for sure (ooh)
Iyaz and Charice let we go

Stones, heavy like the love you’ve shown (shown)
Solid as the ground we’ve known (known)
And I just wanna carry on
We took it from the bottom up (no no no)
And even in a desert storm (yeah)
Sturdy as a rock we hold (oh)
Wishing every moment froze
Now I just wanna let you know
Earthquakes can’t shake us
Cyclones can’t break us
Hurricanes can’t take away our love

Every Rose Has Its Thorns was sung earlier at American Idol Season 9 Grand Finals. I like Poison’s lead vocalist Bret Michaels and AI Finalist Casey James’ rendition on this song. Here’s the video clip and lyrics:

We both lie silently still
in the dead of the night
Although we both lie close together
We feel miles apart inside

Today is history in the Philippines’ Nationwide Election because it is our country’s first time to have an AUTOMATED Election.    Hopefully, if there will be no delays, our next President will be announced after 48 hours and local officials winners will celebrate just after 10 hours.

I have exercised my right earlier and it was fast. So far, nothing unusual happened in the Precinct in our area. I hope this Election will not be a failure. Let’s pray for a peaceful Election and may God guide us in choosing the right leaders to lead our nation.

What is Acai Berry and what’s the deal with Acai (ah-sigh-EE)?

The Acai berry is grown primarily in South America. Acai berries apparently have lots of antioxidants and phytonutrients, just like strawberries, blueberries, and similar fruits.
