PHILIPPINE ACROBATIC SHOW @ DMMMSU-MLUC

Philippine Acrobatic Troupe is a team of Filipino acrobats touring around the Philippine islands. We perform in various events such as fiestas, school foundation anniversaries, opening highlights for a sports feasts, family day, and other events of various organizations including entertainment portion for a political campaign. Because of our wholesome and educational show, we usually able to book series of shows mostly in schools having their fund raising projects or purposely just for their foundation anniversary highlight. With our more or less two hour wholesome show, we set ourselves as examples to the young people who were able to witness the event being part of the community that must abstain from various vices such as drug abuse. Our show is packed with exciting acrobatic and gymnastic acts full of physical prowess and thrilling balancing stunts that enthrall audiences.

It was organized in the year 1988 by its leader/trainer Fernando L. Almocera, Jr. in Don Carlos, Bukidnon, Mindanao, Philippines. After two months of not less than 5 hours a day training, the team had series of shows in nearby towns surrounding the area (training town).

Within a year they were able to saturate almost all parts of Mindanao including those far-flung places within it such as Basilan, Sulu and Tawi-tawi. With this Mindanao tour, the team were able to reach those places with people seldom can see a live wholesome performance of young acrobatic entertainers.


After a year of continuous tour within Mindanao, the team feel the need to venture to other islands of the Philippines namely: Visayas and Luzon. Within a few months the team were able to visit and perform almost all towns of Bohol Island, part of Cebu island, and Negros Occidental and Oriental thereby planning again for the next big move: To conquer LUZON.

Year 1990, the team started series of performances in the mainland of Luzon. Due to the trainer’s place of origin-Mindanao and almost all of the team members’ place of origin-Mindanao too, the whole team, with regards to booking of their shows, has to “hands-on learn” the ins and outs of Luzon not minding the language or dialect fluency barrier that has to be encountered. They rented a house that would serve as their base/residence and at the same time serve as office for booking of shows too.

Today, you will see them in their performances with new and young batch of performers. Their training while being with the actual live performances together with some of the old performers was an advantage for them.

On the year 2004, two of the performers won 3 gold medals and 4 bronze medals during the International Unicycle Riding Competition held at Tokyo, Japan.

On the local talent competition, some of them won in the top rated shows like “Talentadong Pinoy” by ABC-5, GMA7′s “Eat Bulaga-Kakaibang Bida portion” and “Bitoy’s Showtime”, and some of them in “Pinoy Extreme”.

A Smile

SMILE!!!!!

She smiled at a sorrowful stranger...

The smile seemed to make him feel better...

He remembered past kindnesses of a friend

And wrote him a thank you letter...

The friend was so pleased with the thank you

That he left a large tip after lunch...

The waitress, surprised by the size of the tip,

Bet the whole thing on a hunch...

The next day she picked up her winnings,

And gave part to a man on the street...

The man on the street was grateful;

For two days he'd had nothing to eat...

After he finished his dinner,

He left for his small dingy room...

He didn't know at that moment

That he might be facing his doom...

On the way he picked up a shivering puppy

And took him home to get warm...

The puppy was very grateful

To be in out of the storm...

That night the house caught on fire...

The puppy barked the alarm...

He barked till he woke the whole household

And saved everybody from harm...

One of the boys that he rescued

Grew up to be President...

All this because of a simple smile

That hadn't cost a cent...

~Dance Like No One's Watching~

We convince ourselves that life 

will be better after we get married, 

have a baby, then another. 

Then we are frustrated that the kids aren't old enough 

and we'll be more content when they are.

After that we're frustrated that we 

have teenagers to deal with, 

we will certainly be happy 

when they are out of that stage.

We tell ourselves that our life will be complete 

when our spouse gets his or her act together, 

when we get a nicer car, 

are able to go on a nice vacation, 

when we retire. 

The truth is there's no better time 

to be happy than right now. 

If not now, when?

Your life will always be filled with challenges. 

It's best to admit this to yourself 

and decide to be happy anyway. 

One of my favorite quotes comes 

from Alfred D Souza.

He said, "For a long time it had seemed 

to me that life was about to begin -real life. 

But there was always some obstacle in the way, 

something to be gotten through first, 

some unfinished business, 

time still to be served, 

a debt to be paid. Then life would begin. 

At last it dawned on me that these 

obstacles were my life."

This perspective has helped me to see 

that there is no way to happiness. 

Happiness is the way, 

so, treasure every moment that you have. 

And treasure it more because you shared it 

with someone special, 

special enough to spend your time... 

and remember that time waits for no one.

So stop waiting until you finish school, 

until you go back to school, 

until you lose ten pounds, 

until you gain ten pounds, 

until you have kids, 

until your kids leave the house, 

until you start work, 

until you retire, 

until you get married, 

until you get divorced, 

until Friday night, 

until Sunday morning, 

until you get a new car or home, 

until your car or home is paid off, 

until spring, until summer, 

until fall, until winter, 

until you are off welfare, 

until the first or fifteenth, 

until your song comes on, 

until you've had a drink, 

until you've sobered up, 

until you die, until you are born again 

to decide that there is no better time 

than right now to be happy... 

Happiness is a journey, not a destination.

So, Work like you don't need money. 

Love like you've never been hurt and 

Dance Like no one's watching.

The World’s First Talking Robot Launched Into Space

Japan has launched the world's first talking robot into space to serve as companion to astronaut Kochi Wakata who will begin his mission in November.



The android took off from the island of Tanegashima in an unmanned rocket also carrying supplies for crew onboard the International Space Station (ISS).

Measuring 34cm, Kirobo is due to arrive at the ISS on 9 August. It is part of a study to see how machines can lend emotional support to people isolated over long periods.

The launch of the H-2B rocket was broadcast online by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (Jaxa).




The unmanned rocket is also carrying drinking water, food, clothing and work supplies to the six permanent crew members based at the ISS.

Kirobo with developer Tomotaka Takahashi Tomotaka Takahashi with his creation 'Giant leap' Kirobo's name derives from the Japanese words for "hope" and "robot".

The small android weighs about 1kg (2.2 pounds) and has a wide range of physical motion. Its design was inspired by the legendary animation character Astro Boy.





Kirobo has been programmed to communicate in Japanese and keep records of its conversations with Mr Wakata who will take over as commander of the ISS later this year.

In addition, it is expected to relay messages from the control room to the astronaut.

"Kirobo will remember Mr Wakata's face so it can recognise him when they reunite up in space," the robot's developer, Tomotaka Takahashi said.

"I wish for this robot to function as a mediator between a person and machine, or a person and the Internet, and sometimes even between people."

The biggest challenge was to make the android compatible with space, Mr Takahashi added.



Dozens of tests were carried out over nine months to ensure Kirobo's reliability.

Kirobo has a twin robot on Earth called Mirata, which will monitor any problems its electronic counterpart may experience in space.

"It's one small step for me, a giant leap for robots," Mirata said of the mission last month.

The endeavour is a joint project between Mr Takahashi, car producer Toyota and advertising company Dentsu.

I BELIEVE

I believe-
That we don't have to change friends if we understand that friends change.

I believe-
That no matter how good a friend is, they're going to hurt you every once in a
while and, you must forgive them for that.





I believe-
That true friendship continues to grow, even over the longest distance.
Same goes for true love.

I believe-
That you can do something in an instant that will give you heartache for life.

I believe-
That it's taking me a long time to become the person I want to be.




I believe-
That you should always leave loved ones with loving words. It may be the last time you see them

I believe-
That you can keep going long after you can't.

I believe-
That we are responsible for what we do, no matter how we feel.




I believe-
That either you control your attitude or it controls you.

I believe-
That regardless of how hot and steamy a relationship is at first, the passion fades and there
had better be something else to take its place.

I believe-
That heroes are the people who do what has to be done when it needs to be done,
regardless of the consequences.




I believe-
That money is a lousy way of keeping score.

I believe-
That my best friend and I can do anything or nothing and have the best time!

I believe-
That sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you're down, will be the ones to help you get back up.




I believe-
That sometimes when I'm angry I have the right to be angry, but that doesn't give me the right to be cruel.

I believe-
That just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.

I believe-
That maturity has more to do with what types of experiences you've had and what you've
learned from them and less to do with how many birthdays you've celebrated.




I believe-
That it isn't always enough to be forgiven by others.
Sometimes you have to learn to forgive yourself.

I believe-
That no matter how bad your heart is broken the world doesn't stop for your grief.

I believe-
That our background and circumstances may have influenced
who we are, but we are responsible for who we become.


 

I believe-
That just because two people argue, it doesn't mean they don't love each other, And just
because they don't argue, it doesn't mean they do.

I believe-
That you shouldn't be so eager to find out a secret. It could change your life forever.

I believe-
That two people can look at the exact same thing and see something totally different.




I believe-
That your life can be changed in a matter of hours by people who don't even know you.

I believe-
That even when you think you have no more to give, when a
friend cries out to you - you will find the strength to help.

I believe-
That credentials on the wall do not make you a decent human being.




I believe-
That the people you care about most in life are the essence of life.
Tell them today how much you love them and what they mean to you.

A married woman was unhappy
because she has no child.
One day, she became pregnant,
she was very happy and decided
to take a rest and she slept off.
In her dream, she saw herself
carrying a flower, singing and dancing.
Not long, she saw a woman standing
next to her and saying,
"BRING THAT FLOWER".
The woman said "No" and started crying,
telling the evil woman not to collect
the flower from her but the evil
woman used force to collect the
flower and destroyed it, just because
the woman was weak in prayers.
When the woman woke up, she saw
that her pregnancy of 5 months
was gone, the baby died.

You don't know how powerful prayer is,
you don't know what an "Amen" can
do for you until you fall a victim.
NOW I DECLARE, GOD WILL SCATTER
THOSE WHO ALWAYS SPOIL YOUR DAY
OF JOY [AMEN]
WRITE "AMEN" TO CLAIM THIS PRAYER
AND SHARE THIS STORY FOR OTHERS
TO READ. IGNORE IF YOU DON'T CARE.
