GREENHILLS SAN JUAN METRO MANILA: LIBATIONS BAR GRAND LAUNCH AT G STRIP
GREENHILLS SAN JUAN METRO MANILA: LIBATIONS BAR GRAND LAUNCH AT G STRIP
LIBATIONS is a drink lounge that started as a harmless idea between peers and is now a newly set-up establishment with an elegant yet comfortable atmosphere that brings together great music, good people, inspired food and handpicked quality beverages. LIBATIONS was inspired by the latin style of drinking that involved a more personal and laid back feel. The term itself originates from the latin word libare, that refers to the act of pouring as an offering. The term evolved and began to be known as the act of drinking intoxicating beverage, often ceremoniously (as to a deity or a god).
LIBATIONS goal is for everyone and anyone that enters their doors, to be treated as gods.
LIBATIONS are the first ones in the Manila night life scene to introduce the negative-ion bulbs. These revolutionary light bulbs uses technology that is able to remove positive ions, which are responsible in making us feel tired, irritable and depressed, and generally make the air cleaner. In the simplest way, this ionic technology is able to remove smoke and odors in just minutes.
The interiors of the lounge is designed by Nikki Laurel, they were able to introduce elements of rustic and sophisticated design.
You could sit here with your friends if you want more privacy.
Unlike other bars, LIBATIONS is a place where it is possible to engage in intimate or group conversations void of the typical deafening night club music.
A nice place to chill out and party with your friends. Like James Yap and his buddy.
The selection of imported wine and beer along with their signature cocktail drinks namely Libations and Volcano turns this drink lounge into a place like no other.

The Best of the Anti-SOPA and Anti-PIPA Media
I've gathered some videos that better explain SOPA ( Stop Online Piracy Act) and it’s creepy little brother, PIPA (Protect IP Act).
So we can understand the House and Senate bills better and so that we can all be prepared when the SOPA and PIPA when it pop up again. SOPA isn’t dead, it’s just being retooled for another run. PIPA is still alive as well.
SOPA has been shelved and PIPA has lost a lot of friends.
Let's hope that those who make these deals know that everyone is watching and we will do something about it.

ROTAVIRUS VACCINATION A MUST FOR EVERY CHILD
Oral Vaccine
To all the mother's out there! If you care for the over-all being of your child, vaccinate your newborns against rota virus. The vaccines must be initially administered orally among newborns six to 12 weeks after birth while the succeeding dose is given after four weeks.
The inclusion of rota virus vaccination in the Department of Health’s (DOH) Expanded Program on Immunization (EPI) is good decision for the children of the Philippines.
What is Rota Virus? Rota virus is the virus that causes severe diarrhea and vomiting among children below five years old. It is the second leading killer of under-five Filipino children, accounting for 3,500 deaths annually.

It is undeniable that special attention must be given to the health of our children, particularly because many of them are continuously and needlessly suffering from diseases that are either preventable or treatable.
Diarrhea is a preventable disease. if it will be reduced or eradicated, this will contribute to the reduction of under-five mortality in the Philippines.
According to studies almost all kids have had a rotavirus infection by the time they are five years old.
Signs and Symptoms
Kids with a rotavirus infection have fever, nausea, and vomiting, often followed by abdominal cramps and frequent, watery diarrhea. Kids may also have a cough and runny nose. As with all viruses, though, some rotavirus infections cause few or no symptoms, especially in adults.
Sometimes the diarrhea that accompanies a rotavirus infection is so severe that it can quickly lead to dehydration.
Signs of dehydration include:
Rotavirus is the most common cause of severe, dehydrating diarrhea among children worldwide. Each year it causes:

Sometimes the diarrhea that accompanies a rotavirus infection is so severe that it can quickly lead to dehydration.
Signs of dehydration include:
- thirst
- irritability
- restlessness
- lethargy
- sunken eyes
- a dry mouth and tongue
- dry skin
- fewer trips to the bathroom to urinate, and (in infants) a dry diaper for several hours.
Rotavirus is the most common cause of severe, dehydrating diarrhea among children worldwide. Each year it causes:
- About 111 million cases of disease requiring home care only
- 25 million clinic visits
- 2 million hospitalizations
- more than 500,000 deaths in children aged five or younger
A person with rotavirus diarrhea often excretes large amounts of virus, which can spread readily through contaminated hands. Rotavirus, a hearty virus that survives easily in the environment, can also be transmitted through contaminated objects, air, water, or food.
Treatment
Neither antibiotics nor other drugs can cure rotavirus.
The only treatment consists of preventing dehydration by providing fluids and salts until the disease runs its course. In the most serious cases, frequent vomiting makes oral rehydration ineffective.
Children who cannot keep down fluids urgently need intravenous fluids, or they risk dying from dehydration.

Rotarix - A two-dose, orally-administered vaccine that offers protection against rotavirus to infants. Rotarix is indicated for the active immunisation of infants from the age of 6 weeks for prevention of gastro-enteritis due to rotavirus infection. Rotarix is made available by GlaxoSmithKline.
An ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure.
Preventing serious disease in the first place is the best way to protect children in poor countries.
