THELMA

    
           Thel-ma: a name of Greek origin which means “will” or “volition”.

      Maja Salvador trains under athlete Elma Muros, Asia’s fastest woman and track and field champion, for her upcoming Indie Film “Thelma.” Produced and directed by Paul Soriano, “Thelma” is a story of dreams and determination of a young athlete.

In this film, Thelma takes running in the fields of her hometown Ilocos Norte to relieve her from pain and problems. Disaster strikes when her younger sister is run over by a speeding car that crippled her for life. The only hope for her to recover is an expensive operation which they cannot afford.

Life has been harsh to Thelma since then until she joins a road race and wins. Her skills set her to journey to Manila where she faces new challenges that almost make her decide whether to go back home or to pursue the distance.

The story not only centers on a young girl’s passion for running but also around her relationships and trials. Runners and non-runners alike will be able to relate to thefilm especially at everyone’s growing interest in running and fitness as well as the popularity of marathon running these days.

Maja Salvador is supported by a talented cast: Techie Agbayani, John Arcilla, Eliza Pineda, and Jason Abalos. The movie features stunning cinematography by the award-winning Director of Photography, Odyssey Flores. Shot with the latest in camera technology– the ARRI Alexa–

Mozilla Chair Acknowledges Enterprises Do Count for Firefox

               This post is part of  ReadWriteHack channel, which is a resource and guide for developers. The channel is sponsored by the Intel AppUp Developer Program. As you're exploring these resources, check out this helpful resource from their sponsors: AIR for AppUp: What You Need To Know

       Exactly what will end up being the very final, last word on the subject of Mozilla Firefox's expedited release system, may yet be seen. Yesterday, however, the Mozilla Foundation's chairperson, Mitchell Baker, weighed in with what appears to be an attempt at finality, albeit a dualistic one. On the one hand, Baker wrote, Firefox should be less like software and more like the Internet.

On the other hand, enterprises do count in determining how software like Firefox should continue to improve.

"Philosophically, I do not believe a product that moves at the speed of traditional desktop software can be effective at enabling an Internet where things happen in real time," wrote Baker on her personal blog. "If we want the browser to be the interface for the Internet, we need to make it more like the Internet."

Baker tried to gloss over the problem many Firefox contributors have pointed out in recent days: that independent developers of Firefox add-ons may not easily make the adjustment to a six-week major release cycle. She said that add-ons were managed through Web pages that structurally aren't any different from any other kind of Web page, making them easier to manage.

She used that as an example of expediting the browser management process while at the same time addressing user concerns, and here is where she invoked enterprises. "We need to listen carefully to those who are experiencing difficulties. We need to be creative and try to find practical ways of alleviating these difficulties if we can. This is true for the enterprise use case, and it's true for the add-on experience. I know that's not a perfect answer, and it's not a promise that we can meet everyone's needs perfectly. Despite this, I believe the rapid release process is the right direction."

This comment comes a few months after Firefox product manager Asa Dotzler made his now infamous proclamation, "Enterprise has never been (and I'll argue, shouldn't be) a focus."

In a late effort to determine how many add-on developers the rapid release cycle may impact, Mozilla has posted a survey whose questions include, "Are you aware that desktop Firefox will be moving to a multi-process architecture like the one used by Firefox for mobile?" and "If Mozilla provided a marketplace for add-ons, would you be interested in selling a premium version of a new or existing add-on?"

Massacred in Batangas

BATANGAS CITY, Philippines – Three family members were stabbed to death by their own relative in Lian town Saturday evening, police said.

Senior Inspector Joel Laraya, Lian police chief, identified the victims as Merlita Austria, 48 and her children Emmanuel, 28 and Emelita, 27. They are all residents of Sitio Matuod, Barangay Luyahan, Lian, Batangas.

Police are now hunting down the suspect identified as Roldan Mendoza, 26, the nephew of Merlita.

Suspect Mendoza and Emmanuel allegedly had a heated argument, leading to the stabbing of the latter.

Witnesses said Merlita and Emelita came to the rescue of Emmanuel, but they too were stabbed to death by Mendoza.

A manhunt operation was immediately ordered by Batangas Police Director Senior Superintendent Rosauro Acio against Mendoza, who fled after the incident.

Hurricane Irene

This picture of Hurricane Irene hitting the coast is ridiculous:

NEW YORK - Residents of New York and New Jersey are anxiously waiting for the arrival of Hurricane Irene.

The two states are under state of emergencies. A hurricane warning is in effect in the area until tomorrow night.

The outer band of Hurricane Irene reached New York about an hour and a half ago and weather conditions in the area started to deteriorate rapidly

A tornado watch is also in effect in the area until 5 am tomorrow

While Irene is now downgraded to category 1 (which is equivalent to signal number 3 in the Philippines), state and national officials still warn of flooding in low lying areas such as in lower Manhattan in New York and
Hoboken in New Jersey.

Thousands of residents have evacuated earlier today but many residents chose to ride out the hurricane because they have no other place to go or they feel safer in their own homes.

Many Filipinos have also evacuated and moved to safer or higher grounds.

Some Filipinos have also reported power outages in their areas
However, a few other Kababayans decided to ride out the storm since it's been downgraded to category 1 and they live in high rise apartments.
