DIY Halloween Makeup Tutorials

Halloween or Hallowe'en, also known as Allhalloween, All Hallows' Eve, or All Saints' Eve, is a celebration observed in a number of countries on 31 October, the eve of the Western Christian feast of All Hallows' Day.

Ancient Origins of Halloween

Halloween’s origins date back to the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain (pronounced sow-in). The Celts, who lived 2,000 years ago in the area that is now Ireland, the United Kingdom and northern France, celebrated their new year on November 1.

This day marked the end of summer and the harvest and the beginning of the dark, cold winter, a time of year that was often associated with human death. Celts believed that on the night before the new year, the boundary between the worlds of the living and the dead became blurred. On the night of October 31 they celebrated Samhain, when it was believed that the ghosts of the dead returned to earth.

In addition to causing trouble and damaging crops, Celts thought that the presence of the otherworldly spirits made it easier for the Druids, or Celtic priests, to make predictions about the future. For a people entirely dependent on the volatile natural world, these prophecies were an important source of comfort and direction during the long, dark winter.

To commemorate the event, Druids built huge sacred bonfires, where the people gathered to burn crops and animals as sacrifices to the Celtic deities. During the celebration, the Celts wore costumes, typically consisting of animal heads and skins, and attempted to tell each other’s fortunes.

When the celebration was over, they re-lit their hearth fires, which they had extinguished earlier that evening, from the sacred bonfire to help protect them during the coming winter.

By 43 A.D., the Roman Empire had conquered the majority of Celtic territory. In the course of the four hundred years that they ruled the Celtic lands, two festivals of Roman origin were combined with the traditional Celtic celebration of Samhain. The first was Feralia, a day in late October when the Romans traditionally commemorated the passing of the dead. The second was a day to honor Pomona, the Roman goddess of fruit and trees. The symbol of Pomona is the apple, and the incorporation of this celebration into Samhain probably explains the tradition of “bobbing” for apples that is practiced today on Halloween.

Delia danced with delight upon receiving the invitation to Aurora’s birthday party. She had been secretly wishing to be invited to her wealthy friend’s party. Now that she was invited, she would have the chance to wear the beautiful, expensive dress that her mother sewed almost a month ago.
Aling Julia, Delia’s mother, had been sick for about a week now. She heard the happy conversation between Delia and Lilia, their maid. “Delia,” Aling Julia called. Delia went near her mother. “May I know what makes you happy?” her mother asked.
“Mother, I’m invited to the birthday party of Don Pedro’s daughter. It’s my chance to wear the lovely dress you sewed,” Delia said, stroking her mother’s hair.
The party was held the following night. Delia sat, stood, walked, danced and swayed in front of the mirror. Meanwhile, her mother was hot with high fever. Delia could not even hear her Mother’s soft calls. She was ready to go to the party. When she was about to go, she peeped into her mother’s room and said loudly, “Bye, Mother. I won’t stay long in the party.” Aling Julia looked at Delia sadly.
Lilia stayed by Aling Julia’s bed. She tried to keep Aling Julia’s fever low by giving her a sponge bath. Aling Julia tossed in bed. She was burning hot. At the party, Delia was the most attractive girl. She danced and danced. She had no time to think of her sick mother. At the stroke of twelve she saw Lilia at the door. She rushed to her and asked, “Is it about Mother, Lilia?” The maid nodded.
Delia ran home as fast as she could without looking back. She rushed to her mother’s room.
“Mother, I’m back. Forgive me, Mother,” Delia sobbed softly. Aling Julia did not answer. She was unconscious.

“Don’t move or shout. This is a holdup. Give us your treasure box,” one of the criminals said in a low voice.

Just as Mr. Reno was giving the box, the telephone rang. When he got the receiver and tried to answer, the criminals jumped at him and beat him brutally. They kicked and slapped him. When they have finished punishing him, he was unconscious and bloody. One of his eyes was gouged out. They bundled him and jammed him behind a steel cabinet. Then they fled with the treasure box.

A housemaid who came out of her room to check if the doors were locked, stepped on a pool of warm blood and slipped. Frightened, she screamed. The other members of the family came and the unconscious Mr. Reno was found.

The case was reported to the police and the criminals were apprehended. In the meantime, Mr. Reno had been in the hospital hovering between life and death. One eye had been totally destroyed and there was doubt whether the other could be saved. As soon as Mr. Reno could write, he sent a message to the court that the criminals be paroled under his supervision.

Mr. Reno treated them like sons. One did not respond to Mr. Reno’s love but the other made good. He attended college and graduated. Later, he attended a medical school. The young man said, “I want to become a doctor, an eye surgeon.”

Completely changed, the eye surgeon became very famous. Whenever he began an operation he remembered Mr. Reno, the kind old man who changed his life with his love.

How to Make Money with Bitcoin

Looking to earn some extra cash or build up your wealth portfolio? Bitcoin is a great option for doing so. When most people think of earning money through bitcoin, they think about mining and investing in the all-digital currency, but these days there are numerous other methods people can use to generate bitcoin and cash for themselves. Let’s go over some of the most well-known and reliable ways of making money with bitcoin.

The most effective way to make money with Bitcoin

One overlooked method to make money with Bitcoin is to build and manage your own Bitcoin faucet. You can earn anywhere between $50-$800 a month by running your own Bitcoin faucet. The process of running a faucet is pretty simple and it’s all explained in detail in this guide. By running your own Bitcoin faucet you will be paying out small amounts of Bitcoins to your users (automatically) but will be gaining much more revenue through ads you put on your site.

Setting up your own Bitcoin website to generate a passive income

One of the most under looked opportunities to make money with Bitcoin is probably to start your own Bitcoin information website. Unlike a faucet, this type of website will basically explain the basics of Bitcoin to new users, while making money from ads and affiliate offers. It takes a bit of time and a small amount of money to get started but in the long run will probably yield the best return on your investment.

Mini Earnings- A bit of your time, a bit of cash

There are a wide range of websites that will pay you small amounts of money in exchange for completing certain tasks. Most of the time these so-called “faucets” involve looking at ads in one way or other. Basically, site owners get paid when people view and interact with ads. A few websites, such as bitcoin faucets, will share some of those earnings with their visitors. What you have to do to earn your bitcoins varies from website, to website. With some, you’ll kill aliens or feed animals, with others you’ll simply watch videos or click on ads. Be warned, however, some websites will infect you with malware and viruses.

Writing- Turn your literary skills into cash

The Internet is filled with endless forums and message boards, and this creates opportunities. These forums offer great opportunities to spread word about products and services, and some companies will even pay you to promote their products on these forums. Often, this involves little more than modifying your signature and putting an ad code into it. Other websites will pay you in bitcoin to write articles and blog posts. You could also set up your own blog, place ads on it, and get paid in bitcoin. If you happen to know another language you could also do some translation work for bitcoin. Either way, if you know how to write, you can earn bitcoin. Most opportunities are in English, but there are some opportunities in other languages.

Selling products and services

Remember, bitcoin is a currency. This means you can earn money off of selling just about every type of product and service simply by accepting bitcoin as payment. Even major websites, like Overstock.com, now accept bitcoin as payment. If you happen to be a top-notch marketer, or are good with arts and crafts (among many other things), you can sell your services and wares, and accept bitcoin in exchange. As with any other type of business you will have to get out there and market yourself and your products or services. If you’re already selling something, you should consider accepting bitcoin as payment, if you haven’t done so already. If you aren’t selling anything, now is a great time to look at the market to identify needs, and to find ways to meet those needs. Bitcoin offers a wide range of entrepreneurial opportunities for the bold and ambitious, and the all-digital currency makes conducting business around the world cheaper and easier.

Bitcoin mining- Mine your own wealth

Bitcoin mining is arguably the oldest way to create wealth through bitcoin. Bitcoins are created through solving complex algorithms that create blocks that are added to the public ledger. The public ledger is the history of all transactions conducted through bitcoin. Long story short, miners basically build the public ledger and allow the whole bitcoin system to function. As they create new blocks, miners are rewarded with new bitcoins. This encourages more miners to get in on the action, which allows the bitcoin community to grow. Once upon a time, people could use their home PC to mine bitcoins, but over time mining has become more difficult as the algorithms have become more complex. Now, you’ll either have to buy a specially built mining rig, or join up with a bitcoin mining pool that harnesses the power of multiple computers.

Investing- Tap into bitcoin’s ever growing value

Back in October bitcoins were selling for less than $250 dollars. As of writing this article, Bitcoins are selling for more than $450 dollars. If you had invested in bitcoin back in October, you would have nearly doubled your invest in the course of a few short months! Since bitcoin is limited in supply and production is tightly regulated through the algorithms themselves, bitcoin has numerous anti-inflationary considerations built it. This means that over time bitcoin should gain in value.

Gambling- If you got some luck you might make some money

By now, you’re probably familiar with online casinos. They’re pretty straightforward. You play a game of luck, or skill-based game like poker, and if you win, you earn some money. Bitcoin makes it easy to gamble and you can earn some huge amounts of bitcoins if you score a major jackpot. Of course, when it comes to gambling the house always wins in the long run, so risks are high.

Lending- Loan some bitcoins, earn some interest

Lending is perhaps the oldest way to use money to make money. Basically, you loan out money to a relevant party and they pay you back, with interest. Interest rates will vary with the risk involved. If you get collateral in exchange for your loan, interest rates will be low. No collateral means higher risks, but it also means higher interest rates.

Top 5: Earlier this year, there was a controversy in Philippines about the United States reopening a base in your country. Do you think the United States should have a military presence in your country?

I think that the United States and the Philippines have always had a good relationship with each other. We were colonized by the Americans and we have their culture and our traditions even up to this day and I think that we're very welcoming with the Americans. And I don't see any problem with that at all.

Top 3: Why should you be the next Miss Universe?

To be a Miss Universe is both an honor and responsibility. If I were to be Miss Universe, I will use my voice to influence the youth and I would raise awareness to certain causes like HIV awareness that is timely and relevant to my country which is the Philippines. I want to show the world, the universe rather, that I am confidently beautiful with a heart. Thank you.

Miss Universe 2016

Miss Philippines: Maxine Medina, Top 6

What is the most significant change you've seen in the world in the last 10 years?

In the last 10 years of being here in the world, I saw all the people bringing here in one event like this, Miss Universe. And it's something big to us that we are one, as one nation we are all together. Thank you.

Papa Buboy: Actor or DJ?

arbiemazingspot 10/18/2017 04:07:00 PM Barangay LS , DJ 0 Comments

Mas nakilala man siya sa pagiging kuwelang DJ ng Barangay LS FM 97.1, marami ang 'di nakakaalam na si Papa Buboy ay may ibubuga din sa pag-arte. Justiniano Candado II sa totoong buhay, ilang projects na ang nagawa niya sa telebisyon, pelikula at teatro.

Naikuwento ni Papa Buboy sa GMANetwork.com na napabilang siya sa indie film na Sepulturero kung saan nanalo siya ng Best Supporting Actor sa Cine Haraya Film Fest at napasama siya sa historical drama nang GMA News TV na Katipunan na ipinalabas noong nakaraang taon.

Inamin niya na kahit passion niya ang acting, mahirap ang mundong pinasok niya dahil hindi stable ang income sa pagiging artista. “Kasi pag sa theatre, pati sa TV ang project mo, per show, after [the] show wala na. So, audition na naman. Parang naisip ko, I have to look for a real job na malapit din dun sa passion ko nga which is acting.

Kaya nung nag-announce sa radyo na naghahanap ang LS FM ng bagong DJ naisipan niya na mag-audition. Dagdag pa ng dating seminarista, hindi na daw siya umasa na matatangap siya dahil ilang buwan din ang lumipas na walang sinasabi kung nakapasa siya sa audition.

Pero after nung project niya na Sepulturero sakto dumating yung magandang balita na siya 'yung napili maging bagong DJ ng LS. Kaya very flattered daw siya for the trust na ibinigay sa kanya kahit ang background lang niya ay acting.

Focused si Papa Buboy sa pagiging DJ kaya prepared siya every time na nasa trabaho. “Tama yung sabi ni Papa Kiko na preparation. I prepare kahit 3 am (ang show ko) pumupunta ako ng Barangay LS ng mga 1 am. Makikita mo ako, hinahanda ko lang 'yung list of songs ko.”

Nagbibigay inspirasyon din kay Papa Buboy na napapasaya niya 'yung mga listeners nang Barangay LS FM at naniniwala siya na malaking responsibilidad ang pagiging DJ.

“Kasi may nainterview ako dati nung nagjournalism student pa ako na DJ. Sabi niya napakalaki ng kapangyarihan ng DJ, lahat ng sasabihin mo paniniwalaan ng tao so napakalaki ng responsibilidad na itama sila.” saad niya.

Sa tanong na kung ano pipiliin niya, ang maging aktor o DJ, sagot ni Papa Buboy “Why would you choose if you can have both…. Naisip ko if ever dadating 'yung point na kailangan pagsabayin, siyempre priority mo 'yung regular job 'yun, pero kung makakasingit ako ng acting isisingit ko”.

Patuloy na subaybayan si Papa Buboy sa Hoy Pinoy, Mondays to Fridays (3am-6am). Kaya mga ka-barangay, Tugstugan Na! For the latest news on Papa Buboy and other Kapuso stars and DJs, visit GMANetwork.com.
