    May 13, 2013.  Marks another mileage for Philippine Politics history.  And to be a responsible voter, you must do a lot of research especially the new voters.  

    Other than coming to your precinct on the ELECTION DAY you must know the procedure itself.


    FIND THE PRECINCT AND THE STATUS OF YOUR REGISTRATION BY VISITING YOUR SCHOOL PRECINCT.

    Or by visiting COMELEC SITE
    click HERE

    CHECK THE BALLOT TEMPLATES FOR 2013 NATIONAL AND LOCAL ELECTIONS.  This is for you to familiarize what is an actual and official ballot.

    I am residing in Davao City, District 1 and it belongs to Region XI, so my sample ballot here is for REGION XI, Davao del Sur, Davao City, Dist 1.

    For the second time we are using the PCOS MACHINE for our Automated Election, watch this video demo by COMELEC on how PCOS MACHINE operates. Published on March 7, 2013.

    Aside from familiarizing the ballot form, the PCOS MACHINE and your registration status, you have to study the performance of the candidates or know their credentials.

    Today searching for the performance of our politicians is much easier compared from the past elections. Search if their skill matches their candidacy position, you can search them now by using FACEBOOK FAN PAGE or GOOGLE.  Or you can use the traditional way of knowing your candidates by asking people who have knowledge and information and by watching TV like GMA7, ABS-CBN, ABC, etc.

    And if you have the time to ask the candidates, ask them questions that will give you concrete answers.  Never accept "CASH" to buy your vote.  Vote candidates that you believed.  If you are honestly voting for a person who you believe can have a positive impact on Philippine Government then be it!  Set your conscience CLEAR and BE RESPONSIBLE VOTER!

    The Epic Book: Linky Blog Guide to Blogging and Online Business
    by Brent Riggs

    Are you a blogger and looking for a good book to read? Then this one is for you, I got a chance to see the photo video of Brent Riggs new book: The Epic Book Guide to Blogging and Online Business. I have not read it but I absolutely love this book already.  Brent tackled every single aspect  of online business with precise explanation. 
    I know everybody here in the Philippines is using FACEBOOK.  But for us as bloggers we usually use Google+ for our site traffic and social shares.

    Last month Google launched a new version of the social network user interface.  I was amazed with the new look of Google Plus.

    It has a large scale for your TIMELINE COVER.



    And another thing that I like about the changes is that they make your photo profile from standard square size with a circular one.  Fashionably cool to the eyes not a common size as what other social networking are using.

    FACEBOOK is also making its change to compete with the GOOGLE PLUS interface but they receive lots of criticisms from their users. Well I guess these two major social media are very important to us as BLOGGERS.  We often use these for our social sharing and at the same time to get traffic.

    Many users from GOOGLE PLUS reported to upgrade the new version and I am one of them.  Very impressed with the new version Google Plus have now.  If you haven't been using Google+, this is the time to have an account with them.  Better CHECK IT NOW!       


    A memorable Easter Sunday happened in my entire life as a mother.  Waking up at exactly 3 in the morning to bring my two daughters to witness the "PANAGTAGPO" held at SAN PEDRO CATHEDRAL DAVAO.

      

    A traditional Roman Catholic way of celebrating Easter Sunday wherein the Risen Jesus meet his mourning mother Mary and the Angel from above get the black veil Mary's wearing and they all sing ALLELUIA.

    I'm a renewed Christian now and as my respect for my father's will to bring my kids to see this event and for me then to see again how Catholics continue to carry this tradition seriously from generation to generation.



    For me Jesus continues to live in our lives, though we respect how Catholic picture the life and death of Christ, his passion as what the church reminds us how Christ saves us from our sins and how he is risen defeating the curse of evil.

    Seeing lots of people gather together to worship, sing and pray.  Marks the calendar when Christ rose from the dead after his crucifixion.  It is a belief that is the foundation in which our faith build not only for the Catholics but also the Christians all around the world.

       
    In the near future JESUS CHRIST will return to reign the world.  Because HE promised HE WOULD COME AGAIN.



           
    I'm not an expert doing web and graphics designing but if I'm given correct, proper instructions and followed the task given to me this is very easy.

    I've been looking for a SOCIAL MEDIA ICONS for my fashion blog,  GLAMOURHOLIC MOM.  Something that fits my theme, something black to contrast the white templates I used.

    Then I bumped into CARRIE LOVES blog site about her FREE DIY SOCIAL MEDIA ICONS.  This is all I want for my blog, I can choose an ICON and COLOR I want for my site.




    I downloaded the chosen icon and color I'd like for my site, then unzip the folder transfer it to my shared documents.


    Another thing to consider in doing a DIY SOCIAL MEDIA ICON is how you ADD SOCIAL MEDIA ICONS to your site. So I click the link posted on CARRIE LOVES blog, 
    BEAUTIFUL DAWN DESIGNS. A step to step instruction for a blogger user like me.

    All the icons on my shared documents was uploaded to my PHOTOBUCKET Library.



    I open a new tab, LOG-IN to my blogger account and in my DASHBOARD I open my blog title GLAMORHOULICMOM.  Click on my LAYOUT.  Click on ADD GADGET.  Then select HTML/JAVA SCRIPT.

    Then I paste this code: 

    <a href="URL Goes Here"><img src="Image Direct Link Goes Here" /></a>

    I head back to my PHOTOBUCKET ACCOUNT to get my IMAGE DIRECT LINK.  By following what is given on the post.

    Open my HTML/JAVA SCRIPT Gadget, paste my DIRECT LINK where it says "IMAGE DIRECT LINK GOES HERE".

    <a href="URL Goes Here"><img src="http://i380.photobucket.com/albums/oo250/rainepal/pinterest_zps73b4a278.png" /></a> 



    Then I add my SOCIAL MEDIA URL. Just open a new tab for your Social Media profile and copy URL.

    <a href="http://pinterest.com/palraine/"><img src="http://i380.photobucket.com/albums/oo250/rainepal/pinterest_zps73b4a278.png" /></a>



    Finish.  I'm done already.

    See how it looks now.

    Been a week that I am searching for a nice blog template for my personal domain name.  Last Saturday I had my new template but still I am not satisfied with the look my site has so dull and quiet.  I need something cute, lovely and nice to see.

    I have already visualized what should be put on top of my post as my header, a woman with a laptop. My last template on my OL.U.NID blog is a girl holding her laptop while playing bubblegum on her mouth.

    The hard part is to search it on the web.  There is a lot of woman with a laptop photos but none of them suit my taste.  I need something with an animation touch.  Then I type "woman templates for blogger", I've seen this one on the Google search that caught my attention.





    I super love it!  Really love it.  From the designs and styles, it's PERFECT FOR MY PERSONAL BLOG.

    I click to visit the page and I come to know that it was a WOMEN'S MINISTRY FREE TEMPLATE coming from the AMY BAYLISS site.  I read all the instructions stated on her site but on my dismay I can't download the template anymore.  I said to myself that I don't need another template all I need is a header for my site. Then at the button part of the template photo it say's there "get copy for .png header to upload", great read I can use the header itself!  I go back to the web search, click View Original Image then download it.

    Next, I have to change the name "all about Women's Ministry" to my name "PAL RAINE".  I just edit all the text indicated in the header using picmonkey.com.  Then I put the name of Ms. Amy Bayliss below as a simple gesture of crediting it back to her, without her site I cannot see this wonderful and lovely banner that I am using now.

    By the way, so that I will receive updated post of Amy Bayliss I subscribed through her email.  To know more about her site visit HERE.

    Been waiting for the right time to have my own domain name for my blog site.  Well actually I have an old domain name but never used because of I don't like its name.  Anyway, having an own domain name is really good because it will not just help you to monetize your site but to make it more valuable to the readers who are coming back to the site and read my posts.

    I got an email from RETAIL ME NOT and have availed the said coupon code. 



    I bought my personal domain name from GODADDY, I claimed this name for only $1.87( PHp74) only.



    If you want to have your own domain name it is better to have a coupon code in order to avail great discount with less price.

    After I've done all the procedures by following the instructions from ASK PINOY BLOGGERS and at GODADDY and move/redirect my domain name to BLOGSPOT...VIOLA!
