We had to look twice as the video started because it was so good I thought she was lip syncing. But this is all genuine vocals coming from this little gem. Can you imagine if they put this girl in a professional studio to refine her vocal abilities and put her behind a good mic and record her voice like they do the pros?"

The country’s Trivia King Kim Atienza experiences one of Phuket’s most famous annual events– the Vegetarian Festival—in the second part of “Matanglawin’s” Phuket adventure this Sunday (Nov 2).

The Vegetarian Festival is not only a celebration of all things green, but also Thais’ way of getting closer to the gods by eating vegetarian food and participating in processions.

Some devotees would even pierce their bodies, most often their cheeks, with different objects because they believe that the gods or spirits possess them so that they can withstand the pain. Some also walk on live coals and climb meters up and down ladders made of blades.

'The Voice of the Philippines' Season 2 Premiere Soars High in Ratings

Viewers across urban and rural areas in the country tuned in to the return of “The Voice of the Philippines” as they watched the first batch of new hopefuls sing to try to turn the chairs of coaches Apl de Ap, Sarah Geronimo, Bamboo, and Lea Salonga.

According to data from Kantar Media, the singing-reality show’s pilot episode last Sunday (October 26) recorded a national TV rating of 28.3%, or nine points higher than its rival program “Kapuso Mo, Jessica Soho” (17.2%).

Posts about the artists and the coaches also flooded on social networking site Twitter, with the official hashtag #TheVoicePHisBack topping the list of the trending topics in the Philippines and worldwide.

So far, each coach has already enlisted one artist on their respective teams. Balladeer Tammy Pavino chose coach Lea, while police officer Jannet Cadayona officially got in the competition when coach Apl turned around for her. But what really brought the house down and had the coaches losing their minds were the performances of the season’s first four-chair turner and rocker Tanya Diaz, who picked coach Bamboo, and another four-chair turner and the ‘reggae tatay of Bacolod’ Kokoi Baldo, who joined Team Sarah.

Also stealing the scene was coach Bamboo look-alike Bryan Babor, who surprised the judges with his singing voice that sounded exactly like his idol’s. Even though he didn’t make it past the blind auditions, Bryan got his wish to have a duet with coach Bamboo.

40 women awaits HIV test results after ex-lover died of AIDS

Dozens of young women were forced to take an HIV test after discovering during a funeral that the deceased man had been suffering from Aids which led to angry scenes. Apparently, the local Lothario had many ex-lovers.

Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS), a disease caused by a virus called Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) has become a global concern.

AIDS is the only disease specifically mentioned in the Romanian criminal law, which states that the transmission of the virus by a person who already knows he or she is infected can be punishable with a jail term of between five and fifteen years.

However, the law specifies that there is no need to inform a physical partner of the infection, but there is an obligation to practice safe sex.

In line with this, a total of 40 women have undergone HIV test for fear of having been afflicted with AIDS after discovering that their former lover Daniel Decu, 24 years old, was carrying the deadly virus.

According to UK’s Daily Mail, although Daniel Decu was registered having AIDS, his condition was only made known to the public after an autopsy was carried out and a coroner’s report was published.

Earlier, a local doctor in the town of Segarcea, south-eastern Romania’s Dolj County tried to warn people that Decu was suffering from the deadly disease, but was threatened with a lawsuit by the man’s mother.

On a similar note, Dr. Cornel Stanciu, Decu’s family physician revealed that he knew Daniel Decu was an HIV positive and that he had a relationship with his daughter. Stanciu claimed he wanted to tell the public about Decu’s condition. However, he was likewise threatened by his mother.

“I knew he had a lot of female friends, but there was nothing I could do about it,” the doctor said.

Nicolae Popa, the mayor of Segarcea said: ‘The boy’s mother is to blame for the terrible situation that we now find ourselves in.”

Among the many women of Decu, two of them have been confirmed as HIV-positive.

His mother and family are now being investigated as well as others who knew about Decu’s condition.

Decu’s ex-lovers are now awaiting the HIV test results with fear, prosecutors said.
