Christians will gather with their families and friends tonight to observe their holiest of holidays and to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ more than 2,000 years ago. We celebrate the wonderful Christmas story about Jesus’ arrival on Earth, His miraculous birth in a stable among the creatures who lived there and the humble shepherds with their flocks.
An Indonesian woman delivered a 19.2-pound (lb) 2-foot-long baby boy via Caesarean section on Monday at a public hospital in North Sumatra province .
UPDATE: The boy has been named Akbar Risuddin.
American babies usually weigh 7-9 pounds average during birth and now seems trivial. The 19.2 pound baby is now recorded as the largest baby born in Indonesia and just 4 pounds short of the world record holder, who is a 23 pound (lb) baby born in 1879.

RIP Cory Aquino 1933-2009
Former President Corazon ‘Cory’ Cojuangco Aquino has passed away Saturday morning after battling colon cancer for more than a year. She was 76. Details of the former president’s wake will be announced later, the family said.
Once a reluctant housewife, Aquino was known as an icon of Philippine democracy after the EDSA ‘People Power’ revolution removed the Marcos dictatorship and restored democracy in the Southeast Asian archipelago in 1986.
Her son Sen. Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III confirmed that she died of cardio respiratory arrest at exactly 3:18 a.m. Saturday at the Makati Medical Center.
A Filipino was one of the people who made Pixar’s latest movie “Up” a blockbuster hit.
Ricky Nierva was placed in charge of the movie’s entire visual look. “Up” is a box office hit already earning $250 million in the US. “Up” builds on Pixar’s reputation for making the world’s best animated features.
Nierva said Pixar stays on top because the company stresses the importance of ideas.
“They create an environment here that everybody can pitch their ideas…whether he be somebody that’s not even from the art department that has an idea. Staying open, staying positive, that’s the culture,” said Nierva.
Nierva is a native of San Diego. A young animator who, in 1997, was invited to join Pixar and his first work was for “Monster’s Inc.”
Another choreographed tribute to Michael Jackson by the Cebu Provincial Detention and Rehabilitation Center (CPDRC) Inmates in Cebu City Philippines done last June 27, 2009. This was completed in 10 hours after receiving word that the King of Pop Michael Jackson passed away. May the King of Pop always be remembered.
The CPDRC Inmates are famous for their rendition of “Thriller” in 2007 wherein 1,500 plus CPDRC inmates participated. See Youtube videos after the jump.
What is Google Wave? A “wave” is equal parts conversation and document, where people can communicate and work together with richly formatted text, photos, videos, maps, and more.
Here’s how it works: In Google Wave you create a wave and add people to it. Everyone on your wave can use richly formatted text, photos, gadgets, and even feeds from other sources on the web. They can insert a reply or edit the wave directly. It’s concurrent rich-text editing, where you see on your screen nearly instantly what your fellow collaborators are typing in your wave. That means Google Wave is just as well suited for quick messages as for persistent content — it allows for both collaboration and communication. You can also use “playback” to rewind the wave and see how it evolved.
