Stitch has landed….

Oh No !!!! Stitch has landed on our Earth !!!!

Who and What is Stitch?

Stitch is a blue color alien genetic creation and he is standing at around 3 feet tall. He looks like a koala or a french bulldog and he has a limited ability to change his physical appearance such as retracting a second set of arms, his antennae and the three spines on his back into his body. Nevertheless, he is an ALIEN from OUTER SPACE created for a genetic experiment with experiment number 626.

Now, he has landed on our planet but fortunately, he turn up to be a nice cute little alien that will not create chaos in our planet. I managed to took an adorable photo of him with my eldest son, Joey, my youngest son, Joe Dean and my niece, Ya Xin.

Stitch and the kids

World Natural Disasters

Recently, the planet Earth is in bad shape. In the past few weeks, the Asia Pacific and Japan area has experienced several devastating natural disasters. Typhoon Ketsana hit the Philippines and Vietnam, massive earthquakes shaken the Indonesia, Samoa, Tonga and American Samoa with the related tsunami affecting the surrounding area.

These disasters have caused hundreds of deaths, hundreds of thousands of injuries as well as massive property damage. Many have been severely affected by these disasters; my heartfelt thoughts are with the people and communities who have suffered through these unexpected tragic events.

Now is the time to response to the urgent needs of these affected people. Manpower is needed to help find the injured people, recover the bodies and rebuild the area. Food and drinking water are needed to ensure those survivals have enough food to eat and clean water to drink. Praying and chanting are needed to allow everyone has the spirits to motivate themselves and get back to their feet and move forward with their life.

For those who want to help, go ahead and make an effort to contribute your time and money to help these people. For those who wish to give directly to disaster relief efforts, there are some organizations that have issued urgent calls for donations and are providing relief for these events. They are as follow:

1.  UNICEF:  www.unicef.org

2.  International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies: www.ifrc.org

3.  American Red Cross International Response Fund:  www.redcross.org

4.  United Way Disaster Fund:  https://volunteer.united-e-way.org/uwwwdisaster/donate/

5.  World Food Programme:  www.wfp.org

6.  OXFAM: www.oxfam.org

The above are just a few organizations waiting for your response but there may be more waiting for your help.

Everyone should pray to all those affected people. You have your own religious way to pray for them. For those who follow Buddhism, you can chant and pray along with the “Heart Mantra” song that can be found at the sidebar at the right side of this blog or go to www.VictorWan.com/heart-mantra/ or click the tab “Heart Mantra” at the top of this webpage. Click on the “PLAY” button, adjust the volume, pray and chant along.

At least you take a very small step to help them to recover and move along with their life.

Thank you.

The Art of Public Speaking

I remembered when I was young, about 13 years old; I have begun to have interest in public speaking. When I was in school at that time, I took part in the school level speech competition. I liked to stand in front of my school teachers and my fellow students and spoke on my topic during the competition. Unfortunately, I totally cannot recall what my speech title was and what the content of my speech was.

Why I took part in speech competition?

When I was a kid, I watched a lot of television programs. Until now, I still do. I listened to news programs and other programs related to speeches and standup speaking programs. I was amazed of the response with clapping and shouting given by the audiences to the speakers. And the speakers eventually…….looked like became a famous figures. Maybe that was what influenced me to stand up and speak in front of people. With that, I decided to take part in the speech competition.

However, I did not do well and I did not win any prize. Of course, I was not disappointed because that was my first time spoke in front of so many people and I was panic as well. It was not because I did not prepare or practice, maybe it was the first time I stand up in the stage there and this made me panic with red face, butterflies flying around inside my stomach, sweating, heart keep on increase pumping, voice tone becoming unstable and sometimes out of tone etc.

Whatever happened, I was actually proud of myself. I was proud of myself because I was able to take my first step to do things that I wanted to do. I wanted to stand up and speak up in front of audiences and I did it. My public speaking experiences started from there and until today, my profession is related to speaking in front of people. I am now a Trainer.

It is not easy to be a trainer. I have learned a lot from my others trainers and coaches to sharpen up my skills in training and public speaking. One community that I joined to allow me to improve further is the Toastmasters.

Toastmaster is not about toasting with champagne, beer and wine. It is where we can improve by presenting speeches and received feedback of what area need to be improved from the evaluators. I have completed my first 10 project speeches as required as a Toastmasters member with Competent Communicator rank and I am now continue to enhance myself further with doing Advanced Communication project speeches.

I have read a lot of books and listened to a lot of audio books. With new technology nowadays, there are eBooks available as well to download from the Internet and read further for any self improvement and self development.

I have this eBook that is FREE for you to download. This book is about Public Speaking with the title “The Art of Public Speaking” by J. Berg Esenwein and Dale Carnegie. If you are interested to read this eBook, get it free now by typing in your name and your email address and you will get this eBook free in your mailbox.

Everyone can learn to stand up and speak well. However, practicing first before standing in front of your audiences is very important to get rid of your fear and nervousness. Public speaking is like an Art. I have done it and if you also wanted to be like me, read this eBook or attend any Toastmasters Club meeting or email to me at victor@victorwan.com and I will gladly share my experience with you.

Thank you.

An Interesting eBook: Google Magic Formula

Writing articles into my blog is just one of my hobby or past time work. In my own blog, I wrote about everything that I have encountered in my life. From watching football of English Premier League to public speaking in Toastmasters Club, these are some of the things that I have gone through in my life. That is the tagline of my blog.

  1. But posting some articles in my blog is just one of the steps to be done. Most importantly is to get people to read my articles and also visit my website or my blog. And the next very most importantly, is to allow people to find my articles or my website or my blog whenever they do a search using Internet search engine such as Google, Yahoo and MSN.
  2. When a person going to Google search engine and searched for some keywords such as “football”, “Public Speaking” etc., I hope that my website will always be in the first page of the searched results. But of course, that did not happened at all because there are millions of other people writing the same articles with the same keywords and the chances to be listed in the first page of searched results are very minimum. I could be in third or fourth page or maybe even in the last pages of millions of searched results. No one would want to go through all the lists page by page until he or she found the articles or my articles at the end of the lists. Most of them will likely go through the first or maybe second page of searched results only. So, it is difficult to get to the first page and hence, it is difficult to get people come to my blog to read my articles.
  3. However, if you typed “Victor Wan” or “toastmasters club evaluation contest video” in the Google Search, you can still find me in the first page, or sometimes in the second list of the searched results. Well, at least some people can notice me if they typed in the correct keywords to search.
  4. Then, I also need to learn how to make my posts or blog to be always listed in the first list of the Google searched result and I found an interesting eBook that could have help me at least try out the secret way to get listed in the first page. This eBook is called “Google Magic Formula”.
  5. “Google Magic Formula” eBook reveals some steps for everyone to crack the Google search engine system with the usage of Google Adwords tactics to ensure whenever there is a search in the Google search engine, your website will be listed at least at the first page of the searched results. With the website always at the first page, you will get traffic easily because traffic is the most important elements to get people to come to your website and read your articles.
  6. For those Internet Marketer or those people who wants to earn money from Internet, get yourself to read this “Google Magic Formula” eBook and try out the steps and see the results. It may benefit readers so that they can find your articles easily and also benefit you so that you can get people coming to visit your website.
  7. To find out more about this “Google Magic Formula” eBook, click on the eBook image below.

I hope you will get benefit and ideas of success by reading this “Google Magic Formula” eBook.

Thanks for reading.

First of all, thank you to all those who took the effort to register for the contest and predict their Top Four EPL team as at 30th September 2009. However, sad to inform that I have only received 21 predictions from all over the world. Well, maybe this is just the beginning of the season or it could be quite difficult to predict the top four teams due to all teams are challenging enough to be in the top four. Nevertheless, I welcome all of you for any feedback to this contest and I will set up another contest soon.

As at 30th September 2009, the Top Four Teams in the EPL table are as follow:

1. Manchester United

2. Chelsea

3. Liverpool

4. Tottenham Hotspurs

It was almost similar to the original Top Four with only the exception of Tottenham took over their London rival, Arsenal. Well, are we still saying there are ORIGINAL top four teams? I doubt it.

With the 21 predictions that I have received, regret to say that there is NOT even one predicted correctly of the Top Four teams. Of course, with that, there is NO correct prediction of correct top four standing of the EPL table as at 30th September 2009.

Some of the entries left out Liverpool and some of the entries predicted with Manchester City in top four. Other predictions included Arsenal as well. Therefore, at the end, there is no one entry with the correct prediction. and Hence, regret to inform all of you that there is NO winner for this contest.

Nevertheless, I will set up another contest soon and please register for email alert at the right sidebar to get email notification of new contest soon.

Thank you and please visit again for more contest.

For Your Information, this contest is closed. Thank you to all that have registered and predict the top four teams of English Premier League as at 30 September 2009. The result will be out on 1 October 2009.

Regards,

Victor Wan

Stay tune for another contest soon !!!

———————————————————————————————————-

The first month of the newly English Premier League 2009-2010 has just ended. In August, some teams have played up to four league matches and the current table standing of the top four teams as in 31 August 2009 are as below:

  1. Chelsea
  2. Tottenham Hotspurs
  3. Manchester United
  4. Manchester City

Out of the so-called original Top Four teams, Liverpool and Arsenal are not in Top four standing now. Of course, this is just the beginning and there are still long way to go until the final weeks in May next year 2010.

So far, have you predicted correctly of the current standing?  Is your favorite team one of the top four now? Who would think that Tottenham started so well with 100% winning record at this moment? Surely Chelsea is still the strongest team and therefore they are sitting at the top now. With so much money spent on new players, Manchester City would not want to lose out to be in Top Four. If not, surely Mark Hughes will lose his job by now.

However, Liverpool and Arsenal are not far behind and they are just below the surprise package, Stoke City which is at 5th place now. Surely, Arsenal and Liverpool can catch up and they will be greatly challenge all the way to the top four.

Now, my challenge to you is, which teams will be the top four teams at the end of September 2009? Will the current top four teams still remain the same and at the same positions? Will you think that Liverpool and Arsenal will join back Chelsea and Manchester United to be the top four teams? Or will there be a surprise package such as Sunderland and Burnley to be among the top four at the end of September 2009?

Based on the league schedules, all teams are expected to play for another 3 to 4 league matches subject to any postponement due to their hectic busy schedule.
