Point Click Kill
The history of Point Click Kill is probably as mixed and mangled as the style of their music is. Hailing from the great city of Iloilo, this quartet saw its beginnings burst out of musical genres that range from and include reggae, ska, rapcore, Latin and Industrial flavors. It’s difficult to imagine but one dose of their music and one will start to understand how this mixing is even possible. Point Click Kill has made it easier for their audience to absorb their music by describing it simply as Raga-Core, a combination of reggae (which is particularly a dominant genre they are from) and Hardcore "sometimes-bordering-on-Death" Metal.
This combination spiced with Jazz flavors and angry lyrics that single out the taboo issues of today’s country, PCK delivers their music with clenched fists. The band formed after Dem Catacutan and Duhwain Catacutan (brothers) landed in Iloilo after some serious bumming in Dumaguete. They collaborated with Darwin Ardales before actually absorbing him into the group as their lead guitarist. It was at this point that Dem (who was the lead guitarist at the time) took the duties as the bassist of the band. In 2002, the band composed a couple of songs and joined a competition although they were still nameless at this point. Their first drummer quit the band a few months after. Their only other choice was to pull in the youngest of the Catacutan clan, Nino, who at first was hesitant but willing.
Trudging forward with original songs in their arsenal, PCK showed just how different they really were from the rest. After sending out a demo, it caught the attention of Cebu’s Lighter Records. The demo they had sent was recorded in their living room. Rumor has it that in the demo, one can hear a tricycle passing by or chickens crowing in the background. At this time, Urbandub was to play Iloilo for the 2nd time. Impressed and equally shocked, Dub specifically requested Point Click Kill to front for them in Iloilo. Since then, the band has recorded and released a full-length, self-titled album under Lighter Records. It includes their hit singles "Ariba" and "Ska Linti", both tracks which have gained notorious attention over the NU107 airwaves.
The band had gained so much attention, in fact, that they had been invited to tour around Manila and to play at the prestigious Pulp Summer Slam 2006, an annual concert that receives an audience of at least 30,000 rock-heads and metal-freaks (exactly the kind of people that PCK loves to play for). Today, the band is taking things in stride, by selling CDs the independent way through gigs and specialty shops and organizing home court gigs that help them spread their music as well as the music of bands that play at their gigs for sadly there are no radio stations in Iloilo that will play their unsafe tunes (except for the amateur and ballsy CRES 104.1). More plans include nationwide distribution of their CD, video shoots and interviews as well as various tours with bands from Manila and with their label mates Urbandub, Faspitch, Still and The Ambassadors.

Pacquiao wins in eighth round over De La Hoya

Pacquiao dominated his bigger and more famous opponent from the opening bell Saturday night, giving De La Hoya a beating and closing his left eye before De La Hoya declined to come out of his corner after the eighth round.
The fight was so lopsided and De La Hoya looked so inept that it could spell the end for boxing’s richest and most marketable star.
It was only the second time in De La Hoya’s 16-year pro career that he was stopped in a fight, and it was made even more shocking because it came at the hands of a fighter who fought at just 129 pounds months earlier. At the age of 35 he seemed not only well beyond his prime, but unable to offer any answer to the punches that Pacquiao was landing almost at will.
De La Hoya’s left eye was closed shut as he sat on his stool after the eighth round and the ring doctor, referee and his cornermen discussed his condition. De La Hoya offered no complaints when his corner decided he had enough, getting up from his stool and walking to the center of the ring to congratulate the victor.
“No, you’re my idol,” De La Hoya said.
Two of the three ringside judges scored all eight rounds for Pacquiao, while a third gave De La Hoya only the first round. The Associated Press scored every round for the winner.
The fight was lopsided from the beginning, with Pacquiao landing punch after punch while De La Hoya chased after him, trying to catch him with a big punch. Pacquiao was winning big even before the seventh round, when he was pounding De La Hoya against the ropes in his corner and catching him with huge shots that knocked him across the ring.
De La Hoya remained upright, but with one eye closed and his reflexes seemingly gone there was no chance he was going to land the big punches he would have needed to turn the fight around. Ringside statistics showed Pacquiao landed 45 power punches in the seventh round to just four for De La Hoya.
“He’s just a great fighter,” De La Hoya said. “I have nothing bad to say about him. He prepared like a true champion.”
Pacquiao came up two weight classes to fight for his biggest purse ever, while De La Hoya dropped down to meet him at 147 pounds. Though De La Hoya towered over Pacquiao and had a big reach advantage over him, Pacquiao had no trouble getting inside what few jabs De La Hoya threw to land his shots.
“We knew we had him after the first round,” Pacquiao’s trainer, Freddie Roach said. “He had no legs, he was hesitant and he was shot.”
Roach trained De La Hoya in his last big fight a year ago and said De La Hoya simply couldn’t throw punches when he needed in that fight. That was magnified even more against Pacquiao, who not only was as elusive as Floyd Mayweather Jr. but threw punches back that kept De La Hoya off pace.
“Freddie, you’re right,” De La Hoya told the trainer after the fight. “I just don’t have it anymore.”
If De La Hoya’s career is over, it will be the end of a remarkable story that began when he won the Olympic gold medal in Barcelona in 1992 and went on to become the biggest box office attraction in the sport. But while he sold tickets, De La Hoya hadn’t won a big fight in six years, and there were whispers long before the fight that he had nothing left.
De La Hoya not only dropped down to fight for the first time at 147 pounds in seven years, but actually came into the ring unofficially weighing less than Pacquiao. Both fighters got on scales in their dressing rooms and De La Hoya was 147 while Pacquiao was 148 and a half.

Ngaa Haw?
Ini nga palamangkutanon iya ni Jose nga nagapabilin na lang sa amon palamatin-an. Palamangkutanon indi tungod sa malala niya nga balatian (leukemia), kundi bilang sabat kon hambalan namon sia nga indi ka sini kay malain sa imo. Subong sang isa ka bata nga inosente masabat lang ina siya, ngaa haw? Nahibal-an man niya nga may balatian siya apang wala kami makabati nga namangkot siya, – ngaa ako? Kon kaisa makasiling lang ina sia, kakapoy ah.

Is this Pope John Paul II waving from beyond the grave? Vatican TV director says yes

This fiery figure is being hailed as Pope John Paul II making an appearance beyond the grave.
The image, said by believers to show the Holy Father with his right hand raised in blessing, was spotted during a ceremony in Poland to mark the second anniversary of his death.
Details appeared on the Vatican News Service, a TV station in Rome which specialises in religious news broadcasts.
Service director Jarek Cielecki, a Polish priest and close friend of John Paul II, travelled to Poland after hearing an onlooker had photographed the image.
Father Cielecki said he was convinced the picture showed the former pontiff.
"You can see the image of a person in the flames and I think it is the servant of God, Pope John Paul II," he said.
The pictures were being broadcast continuously on Italian TV and also posted on religious websites, some of which crashed as thousands logged on to see for themselves the eerie figure formed by the flames.
The bonfire was lit during a service at Beskid Zywiecki, close to John Paul's birthplace at Katowice, southern Poland, on April 2 - the second anniversary of his death.
Hundreds had attended the ceremony. Gregorz Lukasik, the Polish man who took the photographs, said: "It was only afterwards when I got home and looked at the pictures that I realised I had something.
"I showed them to my brother and sister and they, like me, were convinced the flames had formed the image of Pope John Paul II.
"I was so happy with the picture that I showed it to our local bishop who said that Pope John Paul had made many pilgrimages during his life and he was still making them in death."
