Mark Twain’s birthday: 10 great quotes from ‘father of American literature’ Source: The Christian Science Monitor, Nov 29, 2011 (by Husna Haq)
William Faulkner called him “…the first truly American writer.” Ernest Hemingway declared that all American writing comes from “Huckleberry Finn,” and “there has been nothing as good since.” And Norman Mailer said “Huck Finn” stands up “page for page” to the “best modern American novels.” Wednesday marks the 176th anniversary of the birth of the matchless Samuel Clemens, who wrote under the pen name Mark Twain. His genius lay in his distinctive ability to convey profound wisdom and profane wit in the same breath. Here, in tribute to the man Faulkner called the “father of American literature,” are 10 quotes from Mark Twain.
1. A recipe for contentment: “Good friends, good books and a sleepy conscience: this is the ideal life.”
2. True wisdom: “It is better to keep your mouth shut and appear stupid than to open it and remove all doubt.”
3. Reading habits: “The man who does not read good books has no advantage over the man who can’t read them.”
4. Success: “To succeed in life, you need two things: ignorance and confidence.”
5. Bravery: “It is curious that physical courage should be so common in the world and moral courage so rare.”
6. Procrastination: “Never put off till tomorrow what you can do the day after tomorrow.”
7. Progress: “Life would be infinitely happier if we could only be born at the age of eighty and gradually approach eighteen.”
8. Risk-taking: “Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
9. Good editing: “A successful book is not made of what is in it, but what is left out of it.”
10. Life: “Let us endeavor so to live that when we come to die even the undertaker will be sorry.”

The Ultimate Guide to a Perfect Barkada Bonding
Nov 11, 2011 (11-11-11)
Welcome to a blogger’s ultimate food guide for a perfect barkada bonding! Discover how three different people came together for one night of fun, friendship, and great dining. A pizza food trip like this does bring people together, and we recommend you to do the same on your next barkada bonding for a delicious and exciting experience.
The Barkada
Meet the trio that will take the new Pizza Hut Tuscani to an ultimate test:
JAKE, the Crazy Foodie – Jake is savvy of dining out and one discriminating critic who’s quite hard to please. He’s a tourism student, so he loves to travel and try out different local food.
CAMILLE, the Brainy Princess – Camille is a smart and lovely nutritionist who knows a lot about eating and living right. She’s a very sweet girl, loves sharing stories, and going out for good food.
RYAN, the Social Blogger – Ryan is an active person, online or offline. He describes himself as a hobbyist, doing a lot of the things he loves, such as gaming, photography, sports, and blogging.
Presenting the Newest Kabarkada
This night we’re welcoming the newest member of the barkada, the Pizza Hut Tuscani! How we wish it would be Ms Shamcey Supsup, but this definitely can be as good.
With Jake and Camille, it’s quite hard to choose among the Pizza Hut flavors since it’s a special night and we’re extra picky. But finally we chose Tuscani Roast Beef. It’s made of premium roast beef and shiitake mushroom combined with cheddar and mozzarella cheeses and premium tomato sauce, drizzled with garlic steak sauce. It really must be delicious.
About New Pizza Hut Tuscani
Pizza Hut Tuscani comes in a variety of exciting flavors – Supremo, Premium All Meat, 3-Cheese Bacon and Spinach, Gourmet BBQ Chicken, and Roast Beef. Now thinner than ever yet bursting with flavors, Pizza Hut’s New Tuscani’s freshly made traditional crust is soft on the inside and crisp on the outside. Pizza has gone sexy like Shamcey.
The Verdict
After enjoying all the goodness of the new Pizza Hut Tuscani, well we actually wanted more, but here’s what the dynamic trio can say about it:
Jake: “It’s chewy and soft. The thickness of the crust is just right. It’s not too thick and is actually slightly crispy which brings out the richness of the flavorful toppings. I have to say it’s my new favorite. It’s a must-try for foodies.”
Camille: “I love that it’s not so greasy. It’s healthy and you know they use quality and fresh ingredients. I’ll recommend this to my family too. It’s perfect for family bondings and barkada outings like this, whatever the occasion. Like Shamcey, it’s definitely a winner.”
Ryan: “I knew Roast Beef would be my favorite, and even with high expectations, this didn’t fail me. The best part would be the garlic steak sauce, the flavor is indescribable! It complements my diet too. I’ll need all the protein as energy boost for all my activities.”
Whew, such Shamcey answers there, much like being in a pageant. All in all, we think the pizza’s perfect from crust to toppings, the ambiance at Pizza Hut Bistro was warm and great, and the waiters were really accommodating. We can’t wait to come back for more.
About Pizza Hut Tuscani’s Flavor Your Life
Pizza Hut Tuscani’s Flavor Your Life Promo allows us to choose a pizza and prize we’d want to have. Tuscani Roast Beef adds flavor to me and my active lifestyle, whether online or offline, as its perfect blend gives me the boost to be the best that I can be. No matter how long and where our barkada trips take us, we’re ready!
Believe it or not, I’m using my old and trusty digital camera to shoot these precious moments. I used my creativity to bring out the richness in these photos, simple yet full of flavor. Jake and Camille are just supportive of me and ready to strike a smile. Photography is really my passion, which I will use and share to my community to add flavor to their lives as well if I would win.
Just a Few Tips
Why wait? Just like Jake, Camille, and I, head to a Pizza Hut branch near you now to try their latest pizza offering. The Tuscani Pizzas are very affordable, a Super Family cost only PhP 549. There’s also a Medium when you dine-in for only PhP 349. Pretty neat, right? Also keep a Palm Card handy, like we do, when you’re ordering take-out. Call 911-11-11 (within Metro Manila area) for delivery options. Visit their website www.pizzahut.com.ph for their full menu.

Without Steve Jobs (February 24, 1955 – October 5, 2011) we would have:
No iProducts
No over expensive laptops
Without Dennis Ritchie (September 9, 1941 – October 12, 2011) we would have:
No Windows
No Mac
No Unix
No C
No Programs
A large setback in computing
No Generic-text Languages.
We would all read in Binary..
They died in the same year and the same month but it seems only few notice the death of Dennis Ritchie compared to Steve Jobs.
It won’t cost you anything to press the share button so spread it !
