Through the help of science, the twins were successfully separated. But not all conjoined twins were safely operated. KOREAN POP From Koreanovela craze to K-Pop or Korean Pop songs… the hits just keep on coming from the land of Morning Calm --- South Korea! Filipinos can’t help but dance to the tune of the chart-topping song “Nobody" by the Wondergirls. Even the world-famous Cebu Dancing Inmates are too quick to pick up the beat! Meanwhile, Korean star Sandara Park makes a huge comeback in Philippine showbiz via the girl group 2NE1.With all the buzz on K-Pop, can we really say that Koreans are the new Filipino Idol? LOTUS The lotus flower is one of the most beautiful and sacred flower of Thailand. The good news is, it is now being propagated in the swamps of Candaba, Pampanga. Its flower may be its main attraction, but all parts of lotus can be used for various purposes – decorations, food and even for medicine. The town of Candada hopes that their lotus industry will prosper.

Para sa mas marami pang makabuluhang kwentuhan, bumisita lang sa kapusomojessicasoho.tv CONJOINED TWINS Nitong nakaraang linggo, isang batang babae ang ipinanganak sa Fabella Hospital na iisa ang katawan, pero dalawa ang ulo. Hindi ito ang unang kaso ng conjoined twins dito sa Pilipinas. Ilang taon pa lamang ang nakalilipas nang pagkaguluhan ng mga doktor sa Amerika ang kaso ni Aguirre Twins, kung saan magkadikit naman ang kanilang ulo. Pero hindi lahat ng operasyon ng conjoined twins naging matagumpay. KOREAN POP Matapos sakupin ng mga Koreanovela ang Philippine TV, mga kantang Koreano naman ang hit na hit ngayon sa ating bansa. Patok na patok ang kanta ng Wondergirls na “Nobody.’ Kaya naman hindi na kataka-takang ginagaya na rin sila sa mga comedy bar. Maging ang world famous Cebu Dancing Inmates…napasayaw na rin to the tune of ‘Nobody.’ Muli ring umuugong ang pangalan ni Sandara Park, na miyembro na ngayon ng Korean Band na 2NE1 dahil naman sa kanilang hit song na ‘Fire.’ Mga Koreano na nga ba talaga ang mga bago nating iniidolo? LOTUS Isa sa pinakamaganda at sagradong bulaklak ng Thailand ang lotus. Ang mabuting balita, meron na ring mga taniman nito dito sa Pilipinas! Nagpapatubo na rin kasi ng lotus sa mga latian ng Candaba, Pampanga. Bukod kasi sa ganda ng kulay ng mga bulaklak, lahat ng bahagi ng halamang ito pwedeng pwedeng pakinabangan! Kaya naman umaasa ang mga taga-Candaba na magiging mabulaklak din ang kanilang kabuhayan dahil sa lotus!
