FOODS THAT CAN KILL



Almonds: Just like cashew nuts, almonds too are considered to be extremely poisonous if not treated before consumption. In the crude form these nuts are exposed to heat in order to make them edible.


 Potatoes: One of the most commonly eaten vegetable across the world, a potato plant is actually poisonous. Everything except the bulbs, that we consume, is extremely harmful. If you consume the leaves of the potato plant in surfeit quantities it can prove to be fatal.


Mushrooms: Toadstools are poisonous mushrooms that must not be eaten. Mushrooms that are found in the wild are the harmful ones and can cause grave damage to the body. However, you must take note of the fact that not all mushrooms are poisonous.


Rhubarb: Rhubarb is a plant with edible and flavorsome stems which are used as a part of a number of desserts. However the leaves of this plant contain an acid which is very harmful in nature. Being observant about the quality and nature of food you consume is particularly imperative. Having complete knowledge and information about unusual foods is another important point to be taken care of.


Apple seeds: The fruit that actually keeps the doctor away has poisonous seeds that contain cyanide. However, the level of cyanide is low and does not cause extreme reactions. But health experts do not recommend eating apple seeds.


Cherries: The tiny little red fruit is enjoyed by most people and used in a number of ways. However, the seed of the cherry is poisonous in nature. It releases hydrogen cyanide in your body. You might feel uneasy, dizzy or even vomit. Extreme reactions include convulsions, kidney failure and heart related problems.



Cashew: Raw cashews contain urushiol, which is a poisonous chemical that can lead to death of a person. The ones that are available in the market are not in their raw form as they are steamed before being packed for consumption.

THE CONCERT




Hindi ko kinahiligan ang manuod ng mga concert. Ang ibig kong sabihing concert ay yaong ginaganap sa isang malaking lugar at may ticket na nagkakahalaga ng libu-libo. Lalo namang hindi ako fan ng isang diva para manuod ng concert. Ngunit kagabi lang, nag-abala talaga akong manuod ng concert ni Regine Velasquez na ginanap sa Arena ng Mall of Asia. Hindi ako nakahindi sa paanyaya ng mga kaibigan kong sina Lea at Paul na kahit hindi na kami magkakasama sa isang call center, nagagawa pa rin naming magkita-kita. 

Hindi man naging matagumpay ang nasabing concert ni Regine dahil wala siyang boses at ilang beses siyang pumiyok at namaos, buong pakumbaba siyang humingi ng paumanhin sa mga libu-libong nag-abalang manuod kagabi. Humanga tuloy ako sa kababaan ng kanyang loob. Hindi man naabot ng songbird ang mga nota ng kanta, tila isang teleserye ang nakita ko kagabi sa madamdaming pagtanggap ng mga tao sa kanya. Naging malakas pa rin ang mga palakpakan at hiyawan. 

Kaya naman, sa bibig na rin ni Regine nanggaling na mauulit ang kanyang Silver Concert at libre sa mga may ticket ng kanyang concert kagabi.

JUST WATCHED 'SUDDENLY IT'S MAGIC'


Just watched today this romantic movie of Marcus and Joey at SM Megamall. The movie opened on Oct 31 in theaters nationwide and yet there are still people of all walks of life  watching the movie. I mean, it's been ten days after it premiered and yet the crowd are still on the queue at Megamall Cinema 12 to watch the movie. During those romantic scenes, the crowd were shouting because of the 'kilig' moments.




Suddenly It's Magic is a 2012 Filipino-Thai romantic film directed by Rory Quintos, starring Mario Maurer and Erich Gonzales. The film is produced by Star Cinema and was released last October 31, 2012 in the Philippines.

The story depicts two star-crossed lovers: Marcus Hanson (Mario Maurer), a Thai superstar, and Joey Hermosa (Erich Gonzales), a Filipina baker. When Marcus decides to fly to Philippines to escape from his career, he meets Joey. Even though their worlds collide, the two later fall in love. But their relationship is tested by conflicts from their worlds.

Plot
Joey Hermosa (Erich Gonzales) and Marcus Hanson (Mario Maurer) only have two things in common. One: they live to make fairy-tale romances happen — Joey through her exquisite wedding cakes; Marcus through the numerous romantic comedies he stars in. Two: their own love stories do not have the fairy-tale happy endings — she was just recently dumped at the altar; he just discovered that his on-screen partner and real-life girlfriend had fallen in love with another man.

These two broken-hearted people will find love again when they least expect it. Sounds like the perfect recipe for a sweet ever after!

Desperate to escape the media frenzy and the intrusive questions of the public about his love life and career, Marcus impulsively decides to go on vacation in the Philippines where he meets Joey who is determined to move forward with her life. Marcus finds himself drawn to Joey’s passion for baking, and rediscovers his love for acting. In love once again, he invites her to join him in Thailand. Joey refuses at first, but she eventually follows him to Bangkok and allows herself to fall in love again. But their love encounters opposition from Marcus’ fans who are desperate to see him reunite with his ex-girlfriend, and from his overprotective mother. Moreover, Joey’s responsibilities back home cause a strain in their relationship. Despite their love for each other, Joey and Marcus begin to question if their dreams are worth sacrificing for holiday romance suddenly turned serious.

Can Marcus and Joey’s fairytale romance survive life’s realities?
