Want Google+ Invites? Here's How!


Google+ is Google Inc.'s newest baby that is said to rival the social networking world. It was officially launced on June 28, 2011 in an invite-only "field testing" phase. Same as with other social networks, only users above 18 years of age is allowed to create their accounts. (But of course, young kids can do fake the year of their birth to join.) 



However, in the following day, after the launch, Google+ changed the way of their invite policy because of too many and insane demand for accounts that I think is affecting their service. So, today, Google+ member has only 150 invites to give out to their 150 treasured friends.

Not a part of Google+ yet? I still have 150 invites to give away!


How to GET invites? 


1. Like zupermia.com Page on Facebook >>> CLICK
2. Write your e-mail address on the WALL >>> CLICK


In just two simple steps, I would give you the invite you've been waiting for! Expect your invite to be given right away!

Love, now and always,
Mia

Facebook Emoticons... Most of Us Don't Know

I'm a facebook fan. I mean everyone of us is. 


But if you are not... then, scroll down, click the FB logo after my signature (Yes, the blue box with the "f" letter in white font). Sign your name, e-mail, password, birth date, etc. and voila... Hello FB world!



I, sincerely, believe that FB creates a different world for all of us. More than a social network, it's like a dungeon, a chamber that connects us to a magical world where we can meet people million miles away, where we can keep in touch with long lost friends, where we can display affection without being embarrassed... It's a place where all of us can be real and un-real. 


But let's not talk about more introductions about FB. We all know what it is and love it 
as it is. 


I'm writing this blog to unleash Facebooks' hidden emoticons, that I think most people I know... don't know yet. 


With that, I would like to share these emoticons:



:-* - kiss
^_^ - happy eyes
-_- - squint
O.o - confused
>:O - upset
♥ - heart
:v - Pacman
:|] - robot
:) - happy
:( - sad
:P - tongue
:D - grin
:O - gasp
;) - wink
8) - glasses
B) - sunglasses
:3 - cute/cat-like
>:( - grumpy
:/ - unsure
:’( - cry
3:) - devil
O:) - angel
:putnam: - Chris Putnam (Facebook Engineer)






Could you believe it? There are still Facebook secrets we don't know and there could be more.... we just haven't discovered yet! What are you waiting for? Use these emoticons now!


Sometimes, words are not enough to say how you feel and an emoticon could be a great help! Take Care zupermians! :)



Love, now and always,

HP Veer Commercial



It's been awhile since this site featured something about technology. But sorry to say, this post wouldn't be. I'm just amaze with how Our Pambansang Kamao developed through time, even with the way he speaks English. Way to go PACMAN, you are levelling up to iCarly's Miranda Cosgrove.

All About Saints


Today, there are over 10,000 named saints and blessed. However, the Roman Martyology and Orthodox sources have no definitive "head count" for them.





How does the Church choose saints?


Canonization is used way back the 10th century by the Church to name a saint. For hundreds of years, saints were chosen by public acclaim. This is the more democratic way to recognize saints compared to the process we now have....


In 1983, Pope John Paul II changed how saints are chosen. The process of canonization now  begins after the death of a Catholic whom many people claimed to be holy. Often, the process starts many years after death in order give perspective on the candidate. The local bishop investigates the candidate's life and writings for heroic virtue (or martyrdom) and orthodoxy of doctrine. Then, a panel of theologians at the Vatican evaluates the candidate. After approval by the panel and cardinals of the Congregation for the Causes of Saints, the pope proclaims the candidate "venerable."


The next step, beatification, requires evidence of one miracle (except in the case of martyrs). Since miracles are considered proof that the person is in heaven and can intercede for us, the miracle must take place after the candidate's death and as a result of a specific petition to the candidate. When the pope proclaims the candidate beatified or "blessed," the person can be venerated by a particular region or group of people with whom the person holds special importance.


Only after one more miracle will the pope canonize the saint (this includes martyrs as well). The title of saint tells us that the person lived a holy life, is in heaven, and is to be honored by the universal Church. Canonization does not "make" a person a saint; it recognizes what God has already done.


Though canonization is infallible and irrevocable, it takes a long time and a lot of effort. So while every person who is canonized is a saint, not every holy person has been canonized. You have probably known many "saints" in your life, and you are called by God to be one yourself.

...Or the lying down game




Planking or the lying down game is an activity consisting of lying face down in an unusual or incongruous location. The hands must touch the sides of the body and having a photograph of the participant taken and posted on the internet is an integral part of the game. Players compete to find the most unusual and original location in which to play. The term planking refers to mimicking a wooden plank.

Many participants of planking since 2011 have photographed the activity on unusual locations such as atop poles, roofs and vehicles, while some "plankers" engage in the activity by planking only their upper body and feet while leaving the back suspended.





Who started this craze?



Planking is claimed to have been invented by Gary Clarkson and Christian Langdon in 1997. It was first played and became popular in North East England. However, comedian Tom Green claims to have invented "planking" as early as 1994.


The lying down game spread to the rest of the world, where it has also been known as 시체놀이 or playing dead in South Korea on 2003, Ă  plat ventre or On one’s belly in France on 2004, extreme lying down in Australasia on 2008, facedowns in USA and Ireland on 2010), and planking in Australia & New Zealand and worldwide this year.




IS THAT JUSTIN BIEBER?
