Have you seen a pink toed tarantula? If not then take a look at the pic below,

It’s distinguishing feature is that they have beautiful pink tip to each foot, no wonder why it’s called Pink Toed Tarantula. They are found in Guyana, French Guiana, Suriname, Venezuela, Brazil, Trinidad, Martinique, and throughout the Amazon Basin.

If you’re a lover of spider, you will like the beautiful and furry species of Pink Toed Tarantula,  they are available in dark black to metallic gray.  It’s fun to keep them as a pet. They are funny and they like to stay in groups. They don’t strike like other tarantula species. Pink Toed Tarantula can easily jump from your hand so whenever you keep them in hands handle them with care.

According to news, the unprecedented flash floods brought by Typhoon “Ondoy” are seen costing businesses, households and the government large reconstruction requirements. Many houses and establishments were heavily damaged by flashfloods so construction supplies, home and office furniture will be one of the biggest demands in the next days or months to come.

Big enterprises with comprehensive property insurance like shopping malls are soon expected to file for damages. Other homeowners with property insurance can easily recover from the devastation unlike many households who are likely to be left on their own as most insurance policies kept by the average household, if they even have any, would cover only protection against fire hazards, analysts said.

For the poor and average family rebuilding their houses, recovering and starting all over again after this tragedy is really too much to bear. I pray they’ll find strength and hope in God amidst all these trials.

I’m watching ABS-CBN show Ruffa and Ai, I like their topic today which is about diet. They have a guest doctor well known Dr. Vicki Belo  discusses the newest and fastest way to loose weight It’s better than taking weight loss pills and safer than liposuction. It’s an injectable medicine which in a matter of three days the patient will get visible results. A celebrity guest testifies on its effectivity, Bing Loyzaga tried this new method and judging from her new looks now she indeed loose weight fast. She said she lost 20 pounds in a matter of one month. Hmm, if only money is available I would like to try it also.^_^
