Philippine doctors laughing while removing 6 inch canister from a male patient’s rectum April 21, 2008

There’s a video that is spreading on the net showing these fucking Philippine surgeons and staff laughing and giggling while having a surgery of removing a 6 inch body spray canister in a male patient’s ass..

The hospital is in Vicente Sotto Memorial Medical Center in the central city of Cebu,a government run hospital.the stupid cheering crowd is composed of more than 10 people,including these professionals to be medical and nursing students.

The patient plans to file charges to these deepshits.To all those staff in the videos who were laughing at the operation,you were not supposed to be in that field.No matter what’s the case of your patient you should not make fun of it and worse film it for the whole world to see.May the patient win the file charges against you so you will lose your fucking licenses and to those students so that they will be expelled from school and do not continue anymore what your dream job would be.

“You are a disgrace to the Philippines and to the medical community as well.Go fuck yourself!”

Windows XP to stop selling in June April 17, 2008

Microsoft originally announced over a year ago that Windows XP would be going off the market in January 2008. XP was later given a brief stay of execution, to June 30, 2008. That deadline is fast approaching, which has led to much panicking from people who aren’t quite sure what XP’s “going off market” means, exactly.

People are still as confused as ever. So let’s take a stab at clarifying, once again, what’s going to happen by answering some frequently asked questions about XP’s imminent disappearance.

Will Windows XP really no longer be on sale after June 30? Sorry for the double negative, but no. All this means is that Microsoft will stop selling the OS. Finding a computer with XP preinstalled will likely be very difficult, as well. However, you’ll still be able to find copies for the foreseeable future, and likely the unforeseeable one, too. See for yourself: You can find copies of just about any Microsoft product, including ancient versions of Windows and even MS-DOS, by simply searching online. But hang on to your current copy of Windows XP. You may need it down the road if you don’t want to move to Vista.

Will I be forced to upgrade to Vista soon? No. But it will get harder and harder not to, especially since new software and peripherals are likely to stop working with XP. That could take years.

Will my XP machine stop working in June? No, but Microsoft will stop releasing non-security software updates to the masses on April 14, 2009. But let’s be clear: XP will continue to “work” even after this point.

Will Microsoft shut off product activation for XP after June? No, that would be crazy. While no one has said this will happen, it’s conceivable that Windows could shut down product activation for XP at some point. But that would only happen after XP reaches its end-of-support term (when all support plans expire). The good news for you: That happens on April 8, 2014, which should be plenty of time to get the kinks worked out of Vista-or switch to a Mac, Linux, or anything else. Bottom line: Your copy of XP will work, totally legally, for at least six more years.

What about this exception for Windows XP Home Edition I hear about? Doesn’t apply to you. Microsoft will continue to sell XP to makers of ultra-cheap laptops like the Asus Eee PC until 2010 because they just can’t run Vista. But it is not going to make XP Home Edition available as installable software to end-users.

What about after 2014? Well, that’s unclear. But it’s possible XP will stop being installable at that point. Microsoft’s official policy is that these dates have “no affect [sic] on how long you can use a product,” which may imply product activation will work forever. However, two things come to mind:

1) Even the most die-hard XP enthusiast will probably be ready to upgrade at that point (as XP will be nearly 15 years old, and your PC will be dead by then, I’m sure).

2) Even if Microsoft shuts off product activation, the hacker community will certainly make dozens of tools to let you continue using XP with abandon. Fret not.

Can I install XP on a PC that has Vista already on it? Yes. You can delete any partition with any OS on it (and reformat it) during the installation of XP. If you’re feeling brave, you can even run both OSes at the same time by setting up a dual-boot machine.

It’s been almost a year at the time of writing this stuff when we have find our separate ways. I have been a student here at STI Taft for years and I have graduated batch 2007.

There are many classmates that unfortunately have not succeeded in studies,some have their families earlier, other have stopped school due to financial constraints. But Many still have finished the course.

After graduation, we start to find jobs to help parents. Some became programmers, other become developers, call center agents, technicians, office staffs and there is one that study a different course(James,hehe). I hope all of us will have the career they really want, it’s not just about money, it’s where you will be happy for the rest of their lives.

To my classmates, (Jeffrey Candaza, James Ricerra, Genesis Paras, Tracy Anne Seraye, Rose Ann De Lara, Dyna Mae Meran, Aila Azogue, Majerie Isoli, Christian Garcia, Francis Gomez, Melvin Agonias, Mark Bellido, Vanessa Tangan, Jean Soriano, Cheryl, Alpha Villanueva, Avigail San Juan, Joan Madelo, forgive me if I have forgotten someone) good luck to all of you and keep in touch always.
