Who Could Be Behind Pune Bomb Blast?

Another bomb attack in Pune, Mumbai has left India devastated once again. This is the first major attack after the November 2008 bomb attacks in Mumbai, where 166 people were killed.

Police and other concerned authorities are now looking at every single angle and all possible leads to determine who could be behind the Pune bomb blast. On the other hand, according to senior internal security sources, they suspect that the Pakistan-based separatist group Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT)and the Indian Mujahideen (IM), can be the ones responsible for the attack. This made them put the blame to this group as they have been blamed for other previous Mumbai attacks, too.

It is said that Pune has been targeted as this place is popular with international students and tourists.

Alec Baldwin Hospital and 911 Call

I'm sure many of you have remembered Alec Baldwin, one of the famous Baldwin brothers in Hollywood.

Anyway, news about him spread virally, especially here in the internet, when her 14-year-old daughter made a call to 911, where she reported that her father needs an immediate medical attention since he (Alec) was not responsive anymore.

The cause of his being unresponsive was not yet revealed - or the family want to keep it private. Whatever the reason is, one thing for sure, we can safely speculate that his situation or condition is not that serious as he was treated and released from the hospital for approximately after an hour after the incident.

What is Dinagyang Festival?

Dinagyang Festival has just passed and everyone here in Iloilo City, Philippines is still recovering from the festive mood and trying to get back on their normal lives. But what is really a Dinagyang Festival?

For those who don not know what is Dinagyang Festival it is a religious and cultural festival in Iloilo City, Philippines celebrated every 4th Sunday of January, or right after the Sinulog in Cebu and the Ati-Atihan in Aklan.

The festival is divided into three Major events: Ati-Ati Street Dancing, Kasadyahan Street Dancing and Miss Dinagyang.

The "tribes", also called "tribus", joining the festival contest, are supposed to be Ati (Aeta) tribe members dancing in celebration. There are a number of requirements, including that the performers must paint their skin brown and that only indigenous materials can be used for the costumes. All dances are performed to drum music. Many tribes are organized by the local high schools. Some tribes receive a subsidiary from the organizers and recruit private sponsors, with the best tribes receiving the most. The current Ati population of Iloilo is not involved with any of the tribes nor are they involved in the festival in any other way.

Dinagyang Festival was declared by the Association of Tourism Officers of the Philippines (ATOP) as the Best Tourism Event in the Philippines for four consecutive years. Thus, the new distinction has been given as “Dinagyang Festival in the Hall of Fame.”

Below is a promotional video of a Dinagyang Festival. Watch it and you'll understand why this event is in the Hall of Fame.
