A frog-like baby was born in Nepal two years ago but died after half an hour of its birth. I pity the baby; his father didn’t care about the baby’s death and parading the poor freak in a pot around the streets.
The baby weighed 2kg at birth and was born after the normal nine-month gestation period. Suntali, already a mother of two normal daughters, was not suffering from any illness during the pregnancy.

Andi Eigenmann is Pregnant, Confirms Jacklyn Jose
It all started as a blind item. Then last Tuesday, June 28, Showbiznest put a name on the personality involved in it. And on last night's TV Partol's newscast, Jacklyn Jose confirmed that her daughter Andi Eigenmann is 18 weeks and two days pregnant.
"I just want to tell everyone that, yes, it's true. My daughter is pregnant. Hindi madali pero kailangan kong tanggapin." a tearful Jaclyn Jose admits.
"She decided to keep the baby and naging proud naman ako sa anak ko. Mahal namin yan eh. Mahal ng pamilya ko si Andi." she added.
Jaclyn also asked the public not to judge her daughter and likewise hopes that everyone will understand Andi's current situation.
"Kung may nagawang pagkakamali ang anak ko, hindi ko sinasabing tama, wag na lang husgahan, Bigyan niyo rin siya ng pagkakataon tutal buhay naman yan at kami na ang bahalang family."
Jacklyn, however, refused to reveal the name of the culprit.
"First boyfriend niya. Wala na sila 'nun. Iniwanan siya nung nabuntis siya. I don't want to talk about him anymore. Wala akong hinihingi sa kanila ni ayaw ko sila makita," Jaclyn said firmly.
Many are speculating that it is Jake Ejercito, son of ex-President Joseph Estrada with former actress Laarni Enriquez, who impregnant the 21-year-old Kapamilya star. But Jake is quick to denied the rumor.
On his twitter account, he said that he is not the father of Andi’s unborn baby nor Andi's first boyfriend.
"I'd just like to ask everyone not to jump into conclusions and misinterpret what has been said. I am not Andi's first boyfriend. Let us just respect and pray for her, her baby, and family," he said.

Derek Ramsay Married But Not with Angelica Panganiban
Despite Derek Ramsay's alleged threat to leave the Kapamilya network should the TV station pursue to release its shocking discovery about his previous marriage with an Indian-Filipina model, TV Patrol bravely featured the news in last night's newscast and even compelled Derek and current girlfriend Angelica Panganiban to personally admit the rumor.
Based on the copy of marriage contract secured by ABS-CBN News from the National Statistics Office, "Derek Arthur Ramsay" and "Mary Christine Jolly", then 21-year-old and a Las Pinas born Indian-Filipina model, got married on April 3, 2002 at 3 p.m. in a ceremony officiated by then Balagtas Mayor Reinaldo Castro at his office in Balagtas, Bulacan.
According to Atty. Jean Ferry, a family legal expert, Derek's marriage with Mary Christine can be considered legal up to this time.
“If the certificate of marriage has no annotation that is required, then on its face, the marriage is still subsisting and still valid...To other persons, he is still married,” the lawyer said.
In the same featured interview, Derek said he has left the matter to his lawyers.
“My lawyers are taking care of the various legal options that we have and handle the issue. It’s being taken care of as we speak,” he said.
“This is a very personal matter which I'll share with everyone and have to face in the coming months.... For me, just like all the other intrigues that happen every month, I'll focus on work, and for those who have given support, I want to say thank you and to let you know that she (Angelica) stands by me and our relationship is very strong,” Derek added.
To give his support and to prove that she still cares for him no matter what, the calm and relaxed Angelica joined Derek during the interview.
“Siyempre, gusto naming harapin na masaya, ‘di ba? So tina-try namin ang best namin na labanan ito, na okay kami,” Angelica said.

Philippine Azkals - Sri Lankan Brave Reds Game Result: 1-1 Draw
The Sri Lankan Brave Reds held the Philippine Azkals to a 1-1 draw as they frustrated the Nationals’ attempt to score a historic first win in the FIFA World Cup qualifiers.
The Nationals had difficulties controlling the tempo in the first half against the Sri Lankans' tough defense.
The Sri Lankans scored the first goal of the game when Chathura Gunaratne’s free kick went through in the 40th minute.
Fortunately, Filipino-American Nate Burkey scored a header off a Chieffy Caligdong free kick on the 49th minute to equalize for the Azkals.
It was a highly physical game that was marred by diving on the part of the Sri Lankans.
The uneven grass of the Sugathadasa Stadium in Colombo also affected the Azkals' ball handling.
Several Azkals, including James Younghusband, Angel Guirado and Stephan Schrock, were given yellow cards for fouling their opponents.
The Azkals also had several scoring attempts through Phil Younghusband, Aly Borromeo and Chieffy Caligdong, and Ian Araneta.
The match was the first leg of a 2-leg home-and-away tie.
The next leg will take place at the historic Rizal Memorial Stadium in Manila on July 3.
The Philippines needs to either win or hold Sri Lanka to a goalless draw in the second leg to advance to the next round.

Google has just revealed an update to it’s new software, Google+ Unveils Google Circles
The most interesting feature of the Google+ has got to be Google Circles.

The program also features group chat called “Huddle”, group video, photo uploading and more.
The most interesting feature of the Google+ has got to be Google Circles. It features a personalized newsfeed that allows users to keep people to certain groups ranging from family to best friends to acquaintances to co-workers. The program also features group chat called “Huddle”, group video, photo uploading and more.
The idea is that people use the same thing, circles, in their real-life and Google decided to bring that online as the latest in social media.
“In this basic, human way, online sharing is awkward. Even broken. And we aim to fix it,” stated Google’s Blog. “Not all relationships are created equal. So in life we share one thing with college buddies, another with parents, and almost nothing with our boss.”
“Sparks” is an online sharing engine that delivers a feed of content on whatever topic a user chooses. A user can add their interests and then have something to watch read and share.
“Hangouts” is a feature that Google intends to be fun and “serendipitous” with a live multi-person video. “Mobile” is a feature for phones to share information. “Location” allows Google users to add location to every post. “Instant Upload” allows snapping pictures on a phone to be included in a private album in the cloud. Lastly, “Huddle” is a feature that allows group messaging.
Reportedly, according to KRQE, Google+ is undergoing what the company calls a “field trial,” and accessible by invitation only and not yet available to the public.

Katharine McPhee gets a record deal tied to NBC’s ‘Smash’
Katharine McPhee, the star of the upcoming NBC show “Smash,” is getting her own record deal with Columbia Records, network revealed Thursday.
NBC and Columbia Records have agreed to a recording rights deal for the soundtrack of NBC’s new musical series “Smash” and series star Katharine McPhee also signed a solo recording deal with Columbia Records.
The announcements were made by Robert Greenblatt, Chairman, NBC Entertainment, and Rob Stringer, Chairman, Columbia/Epic Label Group.

NBC and Columbia Records have agreed to a recording rights deal for the soundtrack of NBC’s new musical series “Smash” and series star Katharine McPhee also signed a solo recording deal with Columbia Records.
The announcements were made by Robert Greenblatt, Chairman, NBC Entertainment, and Rob Stringer, Chairman, Columbia/Epic Label Group.
The arrangement guarantees worldwide, digital and physical rights to the first season of “Smash” with successive options to subsequent seasons.
“A musical series should naturally be accompanied by a soundtrack deal, and NBC is very excited to be working with the best. Our Columbia Records partners will guide the soundtrack of ‘Smash’ into a big component of show’s success,” said Greenblatt. “The music will be a driving force of what promises to make a tremendous impact for NBC in January and we couldn’t have asked for better expertise and strategy than this company will provide.”
“We are thrilled and proud to be chosen by NBC to work on their amazing new show,” said Rob Stringer, Chairman, Columbia/Epic Label Group. “Music is at the heart of ‘Smash,’ and with our wonderfully creative broadcast partners, we will develop innovative strategies to present this music to a huge audience.”
“Smash” is a musical drama that celebrates the beauty and heartbreak of the Broadway theater as it follows a cross-section of dreamers and schemers who all have one common desire — to be a “Smash.” The soundtrack will be both original compositions by Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman, the Tony and Grammy Award-winning songwriters of Broadway blockbusters such as “Hairspray” and “Catch Me If You Can,” as well as covers of a variety of existing hits that will combine to tell the narrative of this musical series.
McPhee’s career launched with her renowned run on “American Idol” in 2006 in which she was the runner-up on the 5th season. Her self-titled debut album “Katharine McPhee” was released in January 2007 and premiered at the 2 spot on the Billboard 200. The first single from the album, “Over It,” was a Pop Top 30 hit and was certified gold in 2008.
“Unbroken,” McPhee’s second album, was released in January 2010 and debuted at 27 on the Billboard 200. The album included the single “Had It All,” which crested at 22 on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart. McPhee has already had success with Christmas releases from her 2007 single “O Come All Ye Faithful” and “I’ll Be Home for Christmas” in 2009.
In addition, she has appeared frequently on tv around the holidays, including a guest appearance on the annual “Christmas in Washington” tv special as she performed for the First Family, and the “My Christmas” concert starring Andrea Bocelli. Last year, the sensational singer released some of her favorite Christmas songs for her third album, “Christmas Is the Time…To Say I Love You.” The single “I’ll Be Home for Christmas” was a huge hit, and was downloaded over 500,000 times exclusively on iTunes. McPhee also has co-starred in the feature film “The House Bunny” and has guest-starred in NBC’s “Community” and “CSI: New York.” She co-stars in the upcoming films “Shark Night 3D” and “Peace, Love and Misunderstanding” with Jane Fonda.
“Smash” centers on a desire to create a Broadway musical based on the life of Marilyn Monroe — written by the successful songwriting duo of Tom Tony Award nominee Christian Borle, “Legally Blonde: The Musical” and Julia (Emmy Award winner Messing).
Julia recently began the process of adopting a child with her husband of many years, but her focus is torn when she has the opportunity to write another Broadway hit. A rivalry soon forms for the lead role between a youthful, inexperienced Midwestern beauty — who is trying to find fame in the big city against all odds — and stage veteran (Megan Hilty, “9 to 5: The Musical”), who’s determined to leave the chorus line and finally get her big break. A tenacious producer Eileen (Huston) discovers the “Marilyn” project and jumps on board with a brilliant director (Jack Davenport, “Pirates of the Caribbean” films) — whose talent is matched by his cunning and egocentric amorality. The series stemmed from an idea of executive producer and multiple Emmy and Oscar winner Steven Spielberg (”ER,” “Schindler’s List”).
The pilot was written by acclaimed playwright/screenwriter Theresa Rebeck (“Mauritius,” “NYPD Blue”). David Marshall Grant (”Brothers & Sisters”), Craig Zadan and Neil Meron (Oscar-winning “Chicago,” “Hairspray”) and Darryl Frank and Justin Falvey (”United States of Tara,” “The Borgias”) will also serve as executive producers. Shaiman and Wittman also serve as executive producers. “Smash” is a production of Universal Media Studios in association with DreamWorks in association with Madwoman in the Attic. The pilot was directed by Tony Award winner Michael Mayer.
Princess Diana Joins Kate Middleton on the Cover of Newsweek Magazine
NEW YORK (AP) — The latest Newsweek cover contains a ghostly sight: a computer-generated image of a stylish Princess Diana walking with her daughter-in-law Kate Middleton.
The article inside was written by Diana biographer and longtime provocateur Tina Brown. She's also Newsweek's editor-in-chief.
Diana was killed in a car accident in 1997 and would have turned 50 on Friday. In April, Middleton married Prince William, the oldest son of Diana and Prince Charles.
"What would she have been like?" Brown writes of Diana. "Still great-looking: that's a given." About the cover, a Los Angeles Times headline had a different question Tuesday: "Shocking, brilliant or just plain cheap?"

Raven-Symone Regrets Her New Sexy Figure
Raven-Symoné knows she's turning heads following her dramatic weight loss earlier this year, but it seems she didn't need the extra confidence boost.
"I find it funny that people now come up to me and say, 'Wow, you are absolutely gorgeous,'" the 25-year-old actress tells Vibe Magazine. "I'm like, 'I was beautiful before I lost weight. Egotistically speaking, I thought I was amazing.'"
The former Cosby Show kid and That's So Raven star first showed off a new, more svelte figure in January. Last month, Raven-Symoné told Wendy Williams the secret to her weight loss was stress reduction.
"I stopped stressing. You have to realize at 15, there was a whole entire show I had on my shoulders. It was a very big cast and crew and if you're sick for a day, people lose money and that's a problem," she said at the time. "[It wasn't] just over eating because I've actually been eating the same. I keep a little bit more smaller portions because I learned that your body has to get rid of that stress some way. Some people break-out, some people lose their hair, some lose weight, some people gain weight, my body just reacted a certain kind of way."
However, her weight loss won't be so easy to spot on her new comedy series, State of Georgia, which premieres this month. The show follows an aspiring actress who moves with her nerdy best friend to New York City in search of her big break. "Ironically, my character is supposed to be the size that I was before," she says. "So I have to wear thicker body pads on the show."
State of Georgia premieres Wednesday, June 29 at 8:30/7:30c on ABC Family.

Immediately after praising the lady governor of Cebu, Gov. Gwendolyn Garcia, PNoy’s attention veered towards Lee.
“Pati ‘yung bisita nating si Ms. Grace Lee ‘kala ko tuloy Pinay, eh. Di nga pala, Korean. Pero pati Korean na dumadating talagang guwapa lahat,” the President said.
“Kailangan yatang buhayin ‘yung Malacanang Sugbu. Baka dito na rin ho tayo magkatuluyan,” PNoy added.

Metrowear Pays Tribute to Filipiniana
Over the course of more than a hundred years, Philippine fashion has gone through a rich and storied history, as culture and international influences have molded it into its latest fashion-forward incarnation. In celebration of the Philippines' 113th year of Independence, Metro magazine takes this opportunity to bring together the fashion community in a special tribute to Filipiniana, aptly dubbed Metrowear Filipiniana, to be held on June 30. One hundred designers take to the stage to present their interpretations of the terno, the baro't sayaand the barong Tagalog, combining local fabrics with intricate beadwork and Filipino artistry.
Participating in Metrowear Filipiniana are fashion designers from all the major design groups, presenting their thematic interpretations of traditional Filipino dress. The Young Designers' Guild will present Avant-Garde, while FDCP takes on red carpet gowns and FDAP will do cocktail. International designers Albert Andrada, Cary Santiago and Ezra will showcase theatrical creations. The Cebu designers will present bridal interpretations of Filipiniana, while the independent designers will showcase modern pieces. The show will also have a menswear presentation featuring designs by Anthony Nocom, Gerry Katigbak, Aries Lagat, Joey Samson, Jerome Lorico, Jeffrey Rogador, Barge Ramos, among others. Metrowear will also be having a special segment showcasing the works of The Masters - designers who have brought Filipino fashion design to the forefront - presenting traditional ternos and Maria Claras. On this list are the likes of Mike dela Rosa, Loreto, Patis Tesoro, Danilo Franco, Efren Ocampo, Greg Centeno and Nolie Hans.
Adding glamour to this biggest celebration of local fashion is Metrowear’s first musical revue of traditional and classic Filipino songs infused with modern rock songs to be performed live by the String Minstrels.
Completing the Metrowear Filipiniana experience will be an exhibit featuring the most-skilled and artistic jewelry, bags, accessories and shoe designers - Amina Aranaz-Alunan and Rocio (bags), Ana Rocha, Nicole Whisehunt, Michelline Syjuco (jewelries), Cesar Gaupo (shoes) and Mich Dulce (hats). The Ninay dolls of Patis Tesoro will also be on display on that evening.

See Twin Baby Boys Have Hilarious 'Conversation' New Video
Two adorable twin boys having a "conversation" in their own special baby language. Their babbling is ridiculously cute, but we hesitated to post because we figured there'd be hundreds of hilarious translations (and possibly an auto-tune) on the web by now.
So far, the best thing we've seen is this Bronx Zoo cobra translation that you can see on Buzzfeed. Check out the adorable original video below, and tell us if you come across any other hilarious reinterpretations!
Justin Bieber Flirts With Nicki Minaj at 2011 Bet Awards – Try to Kiss (Video)
It was supposed to be a battle as Nicki Minaj and her Barbies were pitted against Justin Bieber and his Beliebers before presenting the award for Best Male Hip-Hop Artist on stage at the 2011 BET Awards. But Justin and Nicki are lovers, not fighters. And Justin, being the flirt that he is, definitely showed Nicki some love.
The 17-year-old pop sensation did some major flirting with the wig-loving rapstress. “I’m all grown up now. Next year I’ll be 18, so what’s up?” he asked Nicki. “Justin, do you drive?…Can you handle curves?” Nicki replied. And to that, Bieber blurted, “Yes. I. Can!” Watch out, Selena Gomez!

Toy Story 4 Movie Coming Soon Reveals Tom Hanks
Everybody will agree for sure when I say people really can't get enough of Woody, Buzz Lightyear and the whole "Toy Story" gang. Now, it wouldn't also come as a surprise that the most famous computer-animated film which grossed more than one billion dollars in worldwide receipts would be seeing a sequel in development even if Pixar already said that the third installment would be the final in the franchise - well, that was before it hit billions worldwide .
And yes, good news! The movie's lead star Tom Hanks spill the beans and (accidentally?) told the BBC News that he's heard a Toy Story 4 is being worked on at the moment.
"I think there will be yeah." Hanks tells the BBC News. "Yeah, yeah, think they're working on it now. There you go."
Just last week, Pixar revealed that the studio will have its second release in 2013 but didn't specify whether it would be a sequel to their hits like Wall E, Finding Nemo, The Incredibles or an entirely new story.
Let's cross our fingers and hope it would be a new adventure for our favorite toy comrades.

Dingdong Dantes Supports RH Bill; Says He Practice Safe S&)(
Kapuso prime leading man Dingdong Dantes is publicly supporting and advocating the passage of the Reproductive Health (RH) bill but is strongly against abortion.
Dingdong doesn’t claim to be an expert of the said bill that’s been the subject of an ongoing national debate, but he feels it would help Filipinos with regards to family planning.
“I’m really more for the bill’s educational side which is for everyone and not just women. There’s awareness of the sexuality. There’s awareness of what can happen and precautionary measures. Whatever happens, people especially women have choices or alternatives to do what they think is right for them,” Dingdong explained.
He stressed, though, that the bill for him is aimed at educating people.
“At the end of the day it’s all about being responsible parents and responsible teachers. But definitely I’m against abortion. I’m a Roman Catholic and I practice what’s expected,” he replied.
Does he practice safe sex then?
“I don't want to get there. But I think I’m very safe,” he replied smiling.

Michele Bachmann Compares Himself to John Wayne Gacy
In an interview with Fox News, Bachmann boasted: "But what I want them to know, just like John Wayne was from Waterloo, Iowa, that's the kind of spirit that I have, too."
About that spirit of "John Wayne" in Waterloo...
In fact, the actor John Wayne (real name, Marion Morrison) was from Iowa, but not from Waterloo -- he was from Winterset, Iowa, about 120 miles away. But as it turns out, there was another "John Wayne" with some history in Waterloo: Serial killer John Wayne Gacy, known as the "Killer Clown," who raped and murdered over 30 young men before he was finally incarcerated and put to death.
Though if it helps Bachmann at all, Gacy is not known to have committed any murders when he lived in Waterloo, though he was imprisoned for a sexual assault case that was committed there.
To be exact, John Wayne Gacy was born and raised in Chicago, Illinois. In his 20s, he lived for a few years in Waterloo, with his first wife and their two children. However, at age 26 he was sentenced to prison for sodomy, in a case that involved his having sexually assaulted two teenage boys, and then hired another Waterloo teen to physically assault his accusers in order to intimidate them out of testifying against him.
Gacy never lived in Waterloo again. Upon his release from prison after less than two years, he returned to Chicago and the surrounding metro area, where he went on to commit his various other crimes of murder and sexual assault. There was also a run-in with the law in 1972, in a case of sexual battery, but charges were dropped -- and Gacy went on to commit his many known killings.
(Also during that latter period, he became a Democratic ward activist in the Chicago area -- indeed, there is an infamous photo of him in 1978, getting his picture taken in a handshake with First Lady Rosalynn Carter.)
Eventually, in 1979, Gacy was caught and arrested. He was convicted in 1980 of 33 murders, was sentenced to death, and was finally executed by the state of Illinois in 1994.
