Novel Concept That Gives Parent Peace of Mind While Their Chilren Are at School

It's a novel idea from the Marikina Catholic School in the Philippines to give parents some peace of mind while their children are at school.

It's a very good and useful technology that will inform parents through text messages the status of their children: time of their arrival at the school, time they left the school and even the status of the school activities whether or not their class sessions are cancelled.

Surely, with this method of monitoring children will attract more parents and consider sending their children to the Marikina Catholic School.

How I wish all schools and universities will implement this same technology to address those common concerns parent have for their children.

Solar Energy

For more than ten years of my stay here in Thailand, I had been paying for a very expensive electricity bill since the beginning till now. In average, I have been paying for 4,000.00 Baht per month. When I calculated everything, for just 11-year period, the total amount I had paid so far is already more than half million Baht.

There’s no wonder why Mr. Larry Hagman, who played Texas oil tycoon J.R. Ewing in the hit 1970s shows Dallas and also starred in I Dream of Jeannie, is calling for people to embrace solar energy technology as part of a new "Shine, Baby, Shine" ad campaign for solar panel manufacturer SolarWorld.

According to the ontheredcarpet.com, “Mr. Hagman is a longtime advocate of renewable energy and owns one of the largest U.S. residential solar panel systems, which cost him $750,000 when he bought it in 2003. He says they reduced his annual power bill from $37,000 to $13.”
How I wish Thailand will also embrace this solar technology and encourage its people to take advantage of all the benefits it brings. This is the only way I see to reduce my electricity bill each month.
