Greyson Michael Chance - Paparazzi

Who's Greyson Michael Chance? He's a 12-year-old piano prodigy who has become a web sensation after a video of him performing Lady Gaga's "Paparazzi" at a recital performance at Edmond's Sixth Grade Festival was seen on Youtube. As of this time, the video has already hit a massive 2,137,217 views.

Watch Greyson Michael Chance performing Lady Gaga's "Paparazzi" below:

Surely, this boy got an awesome talent. Watch the videos of his original compositions of "Broken Hearts" and "Stars" as proof. So what inspires this young talent? Here's what he has to say:

I am very inspired by Lady Gaga and Augustana. Lady Gaga is a freak but she has so much talent and her style of music is what I would like mine to be when im older. Augustana is one of the most underated bands I think ever to step the planet. They have so much talent it is not funny. They have such a good concept with folk and rock. It is very sad that they are so unknown.

Miley Cyrus Lap Dance Video

Hannah Montana is surely growing up fast. But I guess not the way most parents would want their children to behave the way she did. Here's Miley Cyrus lap dance video which gave disappointment to some who looks up to wholesome Hannah Montana as a role model.

This Miley Cyrus lap dance video was taken last summer, about seven months ago, where Miley Cyrus was seen giving producer 45 year old Adam Shankman a lap dance at the wrap party for the movie "The Last Song".

Did Miley went too far? Watch the Miley Cyrus Lap Dance Video as obtained by TMZ:

(WARNING:This video is not appropriate for children)

I guess, Miley should be careful with her behavior. Well, she could have dance the way she did, but, I think it's disgusting when done with older men. It might looked better if she danced with boys her age.

Genesis 2:24

In the New International Version, Genesis 2:24 says, "For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh." But why is this biblical passage Genesis 2:24 a hot trend on Google today? Maybe because it's message has something to do with same sex marriage. Well, according to some bloggers, Obama is trying to pick a Supreme Court justice who is going to approve gay marriage. I wonder how true is this.

But during the 1996 race for the Illinois State Senate, President-Elect Barack Obama gave statements that expressed an "unequivocal support for gay marriage."

Does Obama support gay marriage? In a column from cbsnews.com in 2008 by Rich Lowry:

Barack Obama might be the first major candidate for president to support same-sex marriage. Obama opposes a federal constitutional amendment to define marriage as between a man and a woman. He opposes the federal Defense of Marriage Act that prevents states from having to recognize same-sex marriages from other states. And he supports activist judges of the sort who find the California court’s reasoning congenial.

Philippine National Elections - 2010 Automated Presidential Election

The Philippine National Election or the 2010 Automated Presidential Elections was held yesterday, May 10th. Since it is the first time for the Philippines to have the elections automated, a lot of technical problems had occurred. In general, there's the defective PCOS machines, some over-sized ballots, the long lines of voters, among others. But then, the elections were done and vote results were almost up to 100%.

I was almost unable to cast my vote at the polling center yesterday due to heavy rain. But then, I just have to go and be a part of the historic event wherein I have to vote in the country's first-ever automated elections.

Unlike in any other polling places where there were incidences of violence, ours had been very peaceful. Despite the heavy rain which poured the entire day, everything went on smoothly. Thanks to the very cooperative people who waited patiently for their turns.

Here are some pictures I took from the polling place during the 2010 Automated Presidential Election. I was not able to take pictures inside the voting precinct especially when I was putting my ballot in the PCOS machine for registration and validation because the BEIs won't allow.
