How’s being the third on the Nuffnang registration? What an obvious exhilaration! I came there with my VIP access and to know (and claim) the winner of “My First Sony Experience” blogging contest. But my excitement was raised to the 100th power of thrill when I saw the amazing products of Sony, the World Breakthroughs. Before I show you the biggest, the grandest, and the most advanced Sony Products, take a peek of the place first.
So what can u say now? It aint the real show yet. Hang-on to your seats and take time to drool over the VIP experience. How about the sumptuous food, the overflowing buffet food mania, yummy!!! It’s really VIP. But what about having a fine dining with a lovely serenade?

Then after that, the man behind the Sony Philippines made their inspiring speeches and spilled out their very own Sony First Experience.
1. World’s First Motionflow 240Hz LCD TV: Bravia Z450: It enables the display of fast-moving images with total precision and smoothness by increasing the image stability by quadrupling the number of frames rate per second by interpolating three new frames to reduce motion blur.

World’s First Smallest, Lightest and Slimmest Full HD Camcorder: TG1 Handycam On-the-go types would be happy to know that Sony has invented TG1 HD Handycam, the world’s first smallest, lightest and slimmest full HD camcorder. It is just about the size of a wallet! This is small enough to become an everyday accessory. Despite the small size of this camera, the TG1 combines the power of Sony’s ClearVid™ CMOS Sensor with Exmor™-derived technology and BIONZ™ Imaging Processor, technologies commonly associated with digital single-lens reflex cameras (D-SLR). Recording sweet and precious everyday moments will be so easy.
6. World’s First Noise Canceling Portable Music Player: NWZ-S730 Series The NWZ-S730 Series, or NWZ-S738 (8 GB) and NWZ-S736 (4 GB), is the world’s first music player series with the integrated noise-cancelling technology that can cancel up to 75 percent of ambient noise. Its high quality EX Headphones also has an in-built noise canceling function that can also enhance you over-all listening experience. An in-box adaptor can also turn your Walkman® player and EX headphones combination into noise canceling headphones for other devices.
7. World’s First Noise Canceling Headphones: NC500D One of Sony’s latest forays into headphones is the NC500D. It is also known as the world’s first noise cancelling headphones. It can effectively reduce approximately 99% of ambient noise while providing a high-quality audio experience. An in-built Digital Noise Cancelling (DNC) software engine makes use of a digital filter to effectively eliminate ambient noise. Also, the Artificial Intelligence (AI) Noise Cancelling feature of NC500D enables the headphones to automatically scan the user’s ambient surroundings and choose the most favorable noise cancellation profile by simply pushing the ‘AI Mode’ button. The generous-sized drivers and a digital equalizer to ensure excellent audio reproduction complement its noise-cancelling attribute.
8. World’s First 24.6 MP Full Frame DSLR: α900 DLSR Camera Sony’s α900 DLSR Camera is a world’s first in offering 24.6 megapixel full-frame Exmor™ CMOS sensor with a built-in image stabilizer, SteadyShot® INSIDE. The 24.6-megapixel Exmor™ CMOS image sensor in the α900 is designed from the ground up for 35mm full-frame imaging, and is produced using proprietary Sony planarization technologies to ensure an ultra-flat surface across the entire imaging area. The SteadyShot® INSIDE is a body-integrated anti-shake system that can capture sharp images with a shutter speed up to 2.5 to 4 stops slower than possible for a sensor this size. This sensor-shift, optical image stabilization system works with all α series lenses, including wide, fixed focus and large aperture lenses, which have traditionally been difficult to implement in lens-based stabilization systems.
“My first Sony Experience”
And then, drums rolling, the announcement of “My first Sony Experience” winner with miss KC conception, sheeeeeeeeeeeeee’s so gorgeous. She’s just a few feet away from me, ahh! No doubt why Sony picked her to be the Cyber shot model, she has the magical craft of smiling. She introduced the Sony Cybershot Camera with all the features on it, but i just missed recording it (was mesmerized,lol). Anyhow, here's KC's reasons for choosing Sony Cybershot.
My heart was beating so fast, and I got the itchy feet to stand and claim the award. But when Miss Kc spilled out the winner, OMG, green with Envy. I missed the cyber shot. But being at the Expo, having a close look at Miss Kc conception, and feeling and touching the Sony's World Breakthoughs were already an overwhelming price. (plus the feebies, whew, so greaat!)
"My Favorite Experience"
My favorite experience was when my newly found blogger friends and I checked over and tried the Sony Amazing Products one by one, station by station. It was fun trying out the Sony Amazing products like the Sony Cyber-shot. At the picture, we were amusing ourselves with the Sony’s Revolutionary Smile Shutter feature, designed to catch all happy moments automatically, no need to press any button. It was just fun smirking and making fun of our faces! Our next favorites were the Digital SLR station and the The Digital Photo Printer station. Take a pose guys! We were able to lay a hand on Sony’s 24.6 Megapixel 35mm full-frame Exmor CMOS sensor. What can you say guys? Stunned? Of course, it’s Sony’s World Breakthrough. We made our picture perfect (homey, I presume) pose at the station and viola, in one click our image was captured by the spectacular Digital SLR . Our model stand would not be complete without seeing it in a clear, hard copy. No problemo mi amigo! The Digital Photo Printer was there, and we got our picture printed for free. It was a unique touch in that cherished moment. Why? Because Sony’s Digital Photo Printer has the auto-touch up technology, it just one touch it corrects exposure, focus, and red eye, and smoothen skin. Next amazing experience was the BRAVIA: Best Resolution Audio Video Integrated Architecture Theatre‘Now Showing, Resident Evil”. You could actually feel the movie; I felt that it was real. The sound was awesome and the colors were vibrant, you could actually differentiate watching TV, and experiencing it. The experience was beyond definition. Then we went to Handycam High definition station. You’’ get impressed with Sony Handycam Features – the imaging technology of smile shutter and face detection and the High Definition Advantage. We were also astounded with Sony’s Digital Photo Frame . It makes viewing photos fast, easy and enjoyable. The Blu-ray Disc Player was the next stop followed by Sony Ericsson Phone , our extra appendage. We were hooked seeing the Bond’s phone with its titanium silver design, the image stabilizer, and face detection features. And of course, we wouldn’t miss the sexy models of Xplod Technology – the car visuals, amplifiers, subwoofers, and speakers. The World Breakthrough in Sony’s WALKMAN was astonishing. It’s perfect for chilling out while walking out. Lastly, the Sony Accessories suited for all your Sony techs to make every experience like no other.

Dengue cases up in Meycauayan By Gigi M. David The municipality of Meycauayan has allocated P1 million for its antidengue drive after at least 10 children have been allegedly infected by the disease since the opening of classes last month.Two children were identified but the names of the rest who belonged to the same area in Phase 3D were withheld upon request by their parents.manilastandardtoday What is Dengue fever? What is Dengue hemorrhagic fever? Dengue fever is a flu-like illness spread by the bite of an infected mosquito. Dengue hemorrhagic fever is a severe, often fatal, complication of Dengue fever. What is the infectious agent that causes Dengue? Dengue and Dengue hemorrhagic fever are caused by any of the Dengue family of viruses. Infection with one virus does not protect a person against infection with another.
How is Dengue spread? Dengue is spread by the bite of an Aedes mosquito. The mosquito transmits the disease by biting an infected person and then biting someone else. What are the signs and symptoms of Dengue fever and dengue hemorrhagic fever? Dengue fever usually starts suddenly with a high fever, rash, severe headache, pain behind the eyes, and muscle and joint pain. The severity of the joint pain has given dengue the name "breakbone fever." Nausea, vomiting, and loss of appetite are common. A rash usually appears 3 to 4 days after the start of the fever. The illness can last up to 10 days, but complete recovery can take as long as a month. Older children and adults are usually sicker than young children.Most Dengue infections result in relatively mild illness, but some can progress to Dengue hemorrhagic fever. With Dengue hemorrhagic fever, the blood vessels start to leak and cause bleeding from the nose, mouth, and gums. Bruising can be a sign of bleeding inside the body. Without prompt treatment, the blood vessels can collapse, causing shock (Dengue shock syndrome). Dengue hemorrhagic fever is fatal in about 5 percent of cases, mostly among children and young adults. How soon after exposure do symptoms appear? The time between the bite of a mosquito carrying Dengue virus and the start of symptoms averages 4 to 6 days, with a range of 3 to 14 days. An infected person cannot spread the infection to other persons but can be a source of Dengue virus for mosquitoes for about 6 days.
How is Dengue diagnosed? Dengue is diagnosed by a blood test.
Who is at risk for Dengue? Anyone who is bitten by an infected mosquito can get Dengue fever. Risk factors for Dengue hemorrhagic fever include a person's age and immune status, as well as the type of infecting virus. Persons who were previously infected with one or more types of Dengue virus are thought to be at greater risk for developing Dengue hemorrhagic fever if infected again. What is the treatment for Dengue and Dengue hemorrhagic fever? There is no specific treatment for Dengue. Persons with Dengue fever should rest and drink plenty of fluids. They should be kept away from mosquitoes for the protection of others. Dengue hemorrhagic fever is treated by replacing lost fluids. Some patients need transfusions to control bleeding.

Facts: The use of condoms is an old usage, and condoms used to be made from a selection of materials, which may sound absurd and offensive to us. The use of condoms lost it popularity after other more effective forms of birth control, yet the use of condoms made from latex are highly effective in preventing HIV transmission when used consistently and correctly.
Correct condom use should include the following steps:
* Use a new condom for each act of intercourse. * Put on the condom as soon as erection occurs and before any sexual contact (vaginal, anal, or oral). * Hold the tip of the condom and unroll it onto the erect penis, leaving space at the tip of the condom, yet ensuring that no air is trapped in the condom's tip. * Adequate lubrication is important, but use only water-based lubricants, such as glycerine or lubricating jellies (which can be purchased at any pharmacy). Oil-based lubricants, such as petroleum jelly, cold cream, hand lotion, or baby oil, can weaken the condom. * Withdraw from the partner immediately after ejaculation, holding the condom firmly to keep it from slipping off.
myths: Myth #1: Condoms don't work Some persons have expressed concern about studies that report failure rates among couples using condoms for pregnancy prevention. Analysis of these studies indicates that the large range of efficacy rates is related to incorrect or i inconsistent use. The fact is: latex condoms are highly effective for pregnancy prevention, but only when they are used properly. Research indicates that only 30 to 60 percent of men who claim to use condoms for contraception actually use them for every act of intercourse. Further, even people who use condoms every time may not use them correctly. Incorrect use contributes to the possibility that the condom could leak from the base or break.
Myth #2: HIV can pass through condoms A commonly held misperception is that latex condoms contain "holes" that allow passage of HIV. Although this may be true for natural membrane condoms, laboratory studies show that intact latex condoms provide a continuous barrier to microorganisms, including HIV, as well as sperm.
Myth #3: Condoms frequently break Another area of concern expressed by some is about the quality of latex condoms. Condoms are classified as medical devices and are regulated by the FDA. Every latex condom manufactured in the United States is tested for defects before it is packaged. During the manufacturing process, condoms are double-dipped in latex and undergo stringent quality control procedures. Several studies clearly show that condom breakage rates in this country are less than 2 percent. Most of the breakage is due to incorrect usage rather than poor condom quality. Using oil-based lubricants can weaken latex, causing the condom to break. In addition, condoms can be weakened by exposure to heat or sunlight or by age, or they can be torn by teeth or fingernails.
SHEESH! im trying to bring back my study habits but i just cant.... before, i could read a whole chapter in one sitting but now? whew! i only flipped 3 pages last night. pathetic... but still i learned.lol. heres my filthy ignoramus: i thought ROP (retinopathy of prematurity) is caused by high oxygen administration. but ! damn a lil information is really dangerous. Thanks goodie iv read about hyperbaric oxygen treatment and then the pages turned up to ROP. It says there that ROP occurs when the development of the retinal vasculature is arrested and then proceeds abnormally... and high oxygen administration is only a contributing factor cause it promotes the abonormal proliferation of blood vessels. thts it! read about it..its interesting!
