The Philippines Says THANK YOU!

Typhoon Haiyan is recorded as the strongest typhoon to hit the planet in recent history.

Last November 8, 2013, it devastated parts of Central Philippines. The number of lives lost and affected is unprecedented.

But ever since then, the world has been one with the Philippines in helping rebuild the nation – from sending relief goods, doing medical missions, all the way to pledging funds for the reconstruction of infrastructure.

This February 8, 2014, exactly three months after the typhoon, we want to be one in expressing our gratitude.

The Philippines says THANK YOU!

What would you do with $25,000

20th Century Fox Gave Him $25,000 To Make A Movie Trailer. Here’s What He Did Instead. Somewhere between the ridiculous voice-overs and their identical forms, I started dreading previews at the movies. This trailer though, if you can call it that, raises the standard. The next time you watch a movie preview, remember that this is what that money could have done.

Super-Typhoon Haiyan is bringing maximum sustained winds of a Category 5 hurricane.

The U.S. National Hurricane Center website indicates that a Category 5 hurricane/typhoon would cause catastrophic damage: A high percentage of framed homes will be destroyed, with total roof failure and wall collapse. Fallen trees and power poles will isolate residential areas. Power outages will last for weeks to possibly months. Most of the area will be uninhabitable for weeks or months.
