Worst American Idol Season


Call it what you will -- the downfall of pop music or its savior -- there's no denying that 'American Idol' is a fickle god-maker.

Some winners have found great success (hello, Kelly!), some have been dumped by their labels (so sorry, Ruben and Taylor), while some also-rans have gone on to bigger and better things.

Eight seasons in, has American Idol run out of gas? That's what some viewers have been saying, and the smell of desperation does seem to be behind many of the changes producers have made this season.

Hot Air Balloon Festival - Clarkfield, Pampanga



The CDC is looking to grow the Clark region, not only internationally, but as a major Filipino destination of tourism and relaxation. For this event and all subsequent events in Clark, the area will become even more easily assessable from Manila. With the completion of the SCTEX this year, and the soon completion of the new SCTEX Clark Interchange in December, you will be able to exit directly into the Freeport from the highways, only a couple Kilometers from the entrance of the balloon festival. If you have attended the Balloon Fiesta in previous years or have been to the Clark Freeport, you know that the last few kilometers are the most frustrating as you exit NLEX to pass through the intense traffic in Dau and Angeles City to the Clark Main gate; sometimes taking as long as an additional 30 minutes. That will soon be a thing of the past and make the balloon festival and Clark in general, an even more pleasant destination.

Terrific, Wild and Unbelievable Wedding Pictures



Wedding is a sacred event for each couple. Remembering the event is I think one of the most sweetest things a couple could ever do. By seeing wedding photographs, refreshes pair's most vital part of their lives. What else can you say if a wedding is done in a very unusual way like the "Jay Contreras (Kamikazee) and Sarah Jane Abad (former child star) Wedding"? It was celebrated in Paco Cemetery! I wonder if this style was inspired from Gun's and Roses' hit, "November Rain". But anyway, it is still the best wedding event I have ever seen.
