Electric Fan Repair

How to Repair an Electric Fan

Problem: Blades rotate slowly

If your fan suddenly runs slow even if it is switched on to its highest speed, the problem may be due some loose thread plastic parts such as that which locks the blades on to its place. So before sending your fan to a mechanic or fan expert, remove the front cover yourself and try to check that plastic knob which locks the blades and prevents them from moving forward and backward. If it is loose, then that is what causes the blades to rotate slowly as when it is loose, it will allow the blades to move forward and away from the shaft.

Remedy:
Replace that plastic knob if parts are available in your area. If not, you may insert  anything, such as small paper, that may help tighten the knob to the shaft and prevent the blades from detaching or moving forward.

The Reason Why Osama Bin Laden Was Buried In The Ocean

US authorities say that nobody or no country wants to accommodate burial of Al Qaeda’s leader Osama bin Laden who was recently killed by US Navy SEALs in a compound in Pakistan. Thus, following the Muslim’s tradition of burying their dead before sunset, the elite force buried Osama’s remains in an undisclosed location in the high seas.

The US’s reason for doing so raised some eyebrows. They may have found a nearly acceptable explanation, but I suspect that the real purpose is to prevent Osama’s remains from being venerated by his supporters considering that, in Islam, a jihad warrior who dies during is considered as a saint. Al Qaeda declared jihad against the United States. Osama’s supporters will surely make a holy place for him once his body comes into their possession.

This is whole thing is similar to what the US authorities particularly the CIA did to the body of the international revolutionary Ernesto “Che” Guevara after executing him. The CIA did not disclose where they buried the body of Che Guevara. It is undisclosed up to this day.

Passengers should be warned before they board MRT/LRT trains

The Metro Rail Transit (MRT) and Light  Rail Transit (LRT) should warn their passengers before the latter board the trains as most pickpockets do their thing during the time when the train doors open and the passengers are very busy forcing themselves in.

Due to high volume of train patrons, especially during rush hours, commuters always find themselves in elbow to elbow with other passengers. And during these times the thieves take advantage. The strategy is very effective as everyone's attention is focused on how he would find his way inside the train considering that there is usually not enough space to accommodate all passengers waiting at each station. One would definitely not notice that his purse or wallet is already missing until the train had moved again for the next station.

After losing my own wallet to a pickpocket at the MRT last year, I learned from a police officer to whom I reported the incident that pickpockets normally execute their criminal act during the time when the would-be victim is busy forcing himself inside the train, and the culprit does not board the train but rather stays behind the platform after accomplishing his purpose. The culprit does it so that when the victim realizes later on that his valuable is missing, there would be no way that he would be suspected of being the perpetrator.

Thus, the train staff should also notify or alert the passengers of such acts before the trains arrive at the station or while the passengers are waiting for the train to arrive. That way, the passengers would be wary of those near them and simultaneously watch their valuables while entering the trains.

Travel Tips: How to go to Makati from Sta. Mesa

If you are in Stop and Shop, Teresa St. in PUP or somewhere around those areas and you want to go to Makati particularly Ayala Avenue, you may take a jeep plying those places bearing the signboard “Boni MRT Kaliwa” or “Boni Derecho”.

The first signboard will turn left before reaching EDSA, and will proceed near the MRT-Boni Station. If you take the second jeep, it will drop you off right at the corner of Boni Avenue and EDSA. From those two final destinations, you may then take either a bus going directly to Ayala or a train at the MRT-Boni Station and alight at MRT-Ayala Station.

The Principle of Separation of Church And State: How to Violate It

The Catholic Church through its leaders vocally expressed its dissent to the Reproductive Health Bill (RH Bill). Just recently, the influential religious group Iglesia Ni Cristo (INC) submitted a manifestation of support to the same Bill. Both groups are major religious organizations in the Philippines, and now they are at the opposing ends.

The 1987 Constitution however explicitly states that the “separation of the church and state shall be inviolable”. Aren’t they violating this provision of the supreme law of the land?

Willie Revillame, All Bark

Weeks ago, I have personally watched an episode of Willing Willie wherein its controversial host Willie Revillame before ending his program suddenly made a comment regarding persons who he claims are in a move to discredit him by capitalizing on the recent crying child macho dancing controversy.
But what surprised me is when he angrily threatened some celebrities who apparently expressed their distaste of Revillame's abusive acts on the child. He specifically named the celebrities who in one way or another wrote or made a comment which is not to Revillame's liking.

Update on this? Revillame decides not to file liber charges anymore. Probably he realized that he has more to loose aside from money considering that all those persons who he will be filing cases against are ready to engage in a legal battle as they all firmly believe that they all are in good faith.

Travel Tips: How to go to Makati from Cubao

When you are in Cubao and you want to go to Makati by public transportation, or anywhere in the south, do not immediately hop in on a bus or slip your magnetic card in the card reader at the MRT station if you do not want to be late on your appointment. You better check first the traffic condition in EDSA and compare it with the situation at the MRT station.

Due to high volume of people wanting to avoid traffic in EDSA thinking that MRT is better than buses, the MRT as an alternative mode of transportation has now become comparable to that of those plying the streets. Long queues, malfunctioning trains, are among the discomforts of using tha MRT. Not to mention the proliferation of pickpockets and very impatient passengers.
