20 dead as magnitude-7.1 earthquake hits the Philippines
A magnitude-7.1 earthquake struck central Philippines on Tuesday, leaving at least 20 people dead and rattling many who were celebrating a religious holiday.
The quake, which struck early in the morning, crumbled a number of buildings and sent panicked people streaming into the streets, witnesses said.
At least 15 were killed in the city of Cebu, four were killed in the province of Bohol and one died in the province of Siquijor, said Maj. Reynaldo Balido,a spokesman for the Philippines Office of Civil Defense.
Most of those killed were hit by falling rubble, the Philippines News Agency reported.
7.1 earthquake rocks Philippines
At least 33 people were missing, and authorities were checking into reports of people trapped in collapsed buildings in Cebu and Bohol, the agency reported.
The quake was centered about 385 miles (619 kilometers) south-southeast of Manila, near Catigbian, and its depth was 12 miles (20 kilometers), according to the U.S. Geological Survey said.
Maryann Zamora, a communications specialist with the charity World Vision, reported seeing glass and concrete in the streets of Cebu City, about 37 miles (60 kilometers) north of the epicenter.
“Right now we are in the streets because it is unsafe to be inside,” she said by phone, her voice shaking as one of more than 10 aftershocks hit. “Tell everyone to pray for us.”
Tuesday was a national holiday — the beginning of the Muslim festival of Eid ul Adha.
There was no widespread threat of a tsunami, the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said, but it warned that earthquakes this large can sometimes cause tsunamis within 61 miles (100 kilometers) of the epicenter.
Catigbian, which has a population of 23,000, is in the province of Bohol.
Tourist Robert Michael Poole said he was riding a bike in Bohol when the earthquake struck and cracked the road right in front of him.
“It was very strong,” Poole said. “I live in Tokyo. I am used to earthquakes. But this one was very strong. It shocked a lot of people here.”
Poole said he was able to move around and document some of the destruction, including a giant church that was decimated.
“Lucky thing is that it is a holiday here today and it happened at a time when nobody was in the church,” Poole said

Login with Facebook using PHP SDK in CakePHP
Here we used PHP SDK 3.0 and CakePHP 2.X for the process of authentication and authorizing users for your app.
For Creating an App, which you can obtain from the App Dashboard.
You need App Id and App Secret for integration of the facebook login in cakephp.
In this CakePHP module we included the Facebook PHP SDK 3.0 in vendors of the app directory.And we define Some variables in Core.php
And We create one file which is facebook.php in config folder for the define of AppId and Appsecret.

Step-by-Step guide to Facebook Conversion Tracking
Step 1: Once you log in to your āAds Managerā tab, click on the Conversion Tracking button on the left side bar.
Step 2: Then click on the āCreate Conversion Pixelā tab to begin the process.
Step 3: You will be directed to this pop-up, which will ask you for a:
1. Name: An appropriate name will help you remember what you are tracking. (Example: Lead Generation – GATE Ad)
2. Category: This will help you decide the type of action that you want to track on your site. You can choose from the following:
1. Checkouts
2. Registrations
3. Leads
4. Key Page Views
5. Adds to Cart
6. Other Website Conversions
(For the purpose of this example, we have selected ‘Leads’).
Step 4: You will be able to see a pop-up window with a JavaScript code. This is the code that you will have to add to the page where the conversion will happen. This will let you track the conversions back to ads which you are running on Facebook.
The code should be placed on the page that a user will finally see when the transaction is complete.
Here is the tricky part. The code should not go on all pages. For that matter, it should not even go to the landing page of your product. The code should be placed on the page that a user will finally see when the transaction is complete.
For Example: If you want to track when students register for your GATE coaching, paste the code on the registration confirmation page/thank you page and not on the form that they need to submit.
How do you confirm that your conversion is working properly?
1. Check that the javascript snippet has been placed on the correct conversion page. Visit the page where the pixel has been embedded, right click and go to āView Page Sourceā to find the pixel. The code should have the tag of the HTML. See image below.
2. Check that Facebook is receiving the conversion events from your website. Go to the conversion tracking tab in your Ads Manager account. There you will see a list of the conversion tracking pixels that you have created. If the conversion tracking pixel has been successfully implemented and a conversion event has been recorded, it will be reflected in the Pixel Status column. If the status shows active, it means that the page which contains the pixel has been viewed by users. If it shows inactive, it means that over the last 24 hours, the page with the pixel has not been viewed.
3.Later, when you create your Facebook ad , you need to check the track conversions box under the campaign, pricing and schedule tab to enable tracking.
How to create Facebook Ads in 8 Steps
Like Facebook says it, “Over 1 billion people. Weāll help you reach the right ones.”
The ultimate goal for any marketer/business owner is to convert his leads into customers. However, for leads to convert, you need to get hold of them first, right? Running ads on social media biggie, Facebook is a time tested approach to grab attention and get more leads for your business.
There are multiple ways to run ads/promoted posts on Facebook. Today, I will discuss how to create Facebook ads in 8 simple steps. Let us take the example of a GATE coaching institute trying to capture student leads through Facebook. For those of you who donāt know, GATE stands for Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering, and is an all India examination for Engineering in MSc, MTech and PhD programmes. (This article is relevant for Facebook beginners).
Here isĀ how to create Facebook ads
Step 1 ā Logging into Facebook
Log into your Facebook account using your personal or business profile and go to the āAdvertiseā page. You will get this in the drop down menu next to the settings button on your home page.
Step 2 ā Start Creating Your Ad
You will be led to this page as shown below. Click on the “Create an Ad” tab to begin the process of creating an ad for Facebook.
Step 3 ā Select Facebook Page/Landing Page to PromoteĀ
The words,Ā āWhat do you want to advertise?ā in the next section are pretty much comprehensible. This is where you chooseĀ the place, page, app or event that you would like to promote. For example: Here we are advertising a page which is dedicated towardĀ GATE coaching.You can also add your own URL or landing page. Check out how you can create aĀ Facebook Landing PageĀ for lead capture.
Step 4 ā Set the Ad Objective
Your next step is named, āWhat would you like to do?ā Here you can choose to:
- Get more page likes: Drive more Facebook users to your ad/page.
- Promote page posts: Promote a particular post out of all the posts that you have made on your page, ex. a blog post, picture etc. This will not only enhance your reach, but also your chances to be placed in news feeds –Ā the center column of your home page.
- See advanced options: Drive traffic to your website. You can configure your advanced creative and pricing options. This is so intricate that you can also bid for the number of clicks on a particular post. (Remember, each category is different and offers different features to help you target your audience better.)
Since our main goal here is to collect leads and get better control over our ads, we will opt for the āSee Advanced Optionsā.Ā
Step 5 ā Create the Ad copyĀ
You begin designing āYour adā here. FB ads are simple, comprising 25 character headline and a 90 character description. You can also add a thumbnail photograph measuring 100 pixels x 72 pixels here. Make sure to keep it very relevant for your audience. For instance, if you are a GATE institute, this would be a good ad copy:
Looking for Best Coaching for GATE? Join Now ā 1 Week Free Trial Period!
You can then set the landing page of the ad. For instance, you can choose to land the visitors on your Facebook Pageās timeline, or a lead capture page (when you are aiming at lead capture, it is recommended that you set a landing page, instead of directing people to the timeline). Hereās how you can create one and the image on your right shows how your ad will look.
*Do go through these guidelines before you create your ad copy.*
Step 6 ā Choose your Audience
Next, you narrow down your target audience under the āChoose your audienceā category.Ā Before we begin, in the image shown below, see the number of people under āAudienceā section before the filters have been set.
This is the most important step, as this is where you choose your perfect target.
- Location:Ā You can micro target by location (state/city/zip code). Ex: Students on Facebook giving GATE ā14 exams will be India specific only. If you are a physical institute based in Bangalore, you might want to choose by city: Bangalore, Nelamangala, Hosur etc.
- Age: You can also target by age. Ex: GATE will mostly include students who have completed/ pursuing their B.Tech ā 22-24 years.
- Gender: You can also choose gender, based on the kind of ad you are advertising. Here, since we are talking about exam specific ads, gender will be categorized as āAllā.
- Precise Interests: Under the āPrecise Interestsā section, you can choose interests that you are looking for in your target audience. In this case, your interests can be Engineering, IIT, studies etc. Once you have entered precise interest, you donāt have to choose the broader interest.
If you have opted for the āAdvanced optionsā under the ad category, you can also detail down to relationship status, languages spoken, college attended and workplace.Ā By the process of trial and error, you can boil down your audience from a whopping 167 million users in the US to as few as 1 lakh people in India or a particular city.
Now, take a look at the image shown below which shows the targeted audience once the filters have been set.
Step 7 –Ā Campaign Pricing and Schedule Options
This step is āCampaign, Pricing and Scheduleā for your Facebook ad.
- Choose the currency, country and time zone in which you are placing your ad.
- The āNew Campaign Nameā should be distinct and definite.
- Next, choose how much you are willing to spend for your ad campaign. You can choose from a daily budget or a lump sum amount that you will spend for as long as the ad runs. (Payments on Facebook are either pay-per-click ā you pay every time someone clicks your ad or per thousand impressions ā you pay every time 1000 people see your ad.) We have opted for the Pay-per-click payment service.
Step 8 ā Review your Ad
Once you āReview your adā, you will be able to see the details of your ads that you have fed and how your ad will look. Next, you will be prompted to make payments for your ad. You can use a credit/debit card, PayPal or Facebook ad coupon.
Facebook will hold your ad for review for a minimum of 24 hours.Ā Your ad will either appear in news feeds or in the right column of any page in search results.Later, you can use the āAds Manager toolā to keep track of your adsā progress.
So, this is how to create a Facebook ad: Basic News-feed ad. Be creative, think outside the box and you are good to go. For further queries, please do visit Facebookās Help Centre or leave us a comment and we will get back to you ASAP.

Important security bulletin for WordPress users
A large distributed brute force attack against WordPress websites is understood to be occurring recently across the internet. A large botnet with thousands of attacking servers is attempting to log in by cycling through different usernames and passwords to get into the WordPress Admin dashboard. This is a global attack which is affecting thousands of servers globally.
To ensure that your websites are secure and safeguarded from this attack, we recommend the following steps to be implemented immediately if you are using WordPress:
1) Update your WordPress installation to the latest available version. If you have any plugins and themes installed under WordPress, please make sure that you update them to the latest version as well.
2) Use a strong alphanumeric password for your WordPress Admin login. You can use a password generator like http://www.strongpasswordgenerator.com
3) Password protect the WordPress admin directory (wp-admin) so that it will have an additional protection. You can do that through cPanel > Security > Password Protect Directories
Note: If it breaks the Ajax functionality or shows 404 errors in the dashboard, you may have to add the following in .htaccess file:
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
Satisfy any
4) If you have a static IP address, you can lock down the WordPress Admin access using .htaccess file with the following rules:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/wp-login\.php(.*)$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/wp-admin$
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^72\.72\.72\.72$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^72\.72\.72\.73$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^72\.72\.72\.74$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ – [R=403,L]
(Replace 72.72.72.72, 72.72.72.73, 72.72.72.74 with your actual PC IPs)
5) Install security plugins like:

Today RAJINI’S BIRTHDAY 12-12-12
SuperstarĀ RajinikanthĀ celebrates his 60th birthday today and he will be spending the day with his family. Rajiniās birthday is no less than a festival for his fans the world over.
It is reported that his family and close friends have organized a Shashitabadapoorthi puja (60th birthday celebrations) at the famous Tirukkadiyur temple near Tiruchi. However, it should come to no oneās surprise that Rajiniās fans will be lining up for special poojas and welfare activities for their favourite idol.
Shivaji Rao Gaekwad was on December 12, 1949 and had very humble beginnings. He served as a ticket collector in a local shuttle bus in Bangalore when he was discovered by the legendary K. Balachander who renamed him Rajinikanth.
The year has been exceptional for Rajini. Breaking all box office recordsĀ EndhiranĀ has emerged as the biggest hit ever. There have also been two new additions to his family. Daughter Aishwarya Rajinikanth, who is married to actorĀ DhanushĀ gave birth to a baby boy and his other daughter Soundarya Rajinikanth got married to industrialist Ashwin Kumar.
selvabalaji.wordpress.com Ā wishes Rajinikanth a very happy birthday!

Vijay’s Thuppaki Review – First Day First Show Report
One of the key reasons for Thuppaki’s sky high expectations is because the movie marks the beginning of Vijay’s strategy to working with top rung directors (barring Shankar’s Nanban which was aĀ faithful remake of 3 Idiots). This is probably the best line-up of crew members and technicians for a Vijay movie. On the casting side, Kajal Aggarwal, Vidyut, Sathyan, Jayaram have provided the required support for Vijay to showcase his talent.Ā Ā Does the script keep you engaged throughout the running time of 2 hour 45 minutes? Will Thuppaki uplift the festive mood this Diwali?Ā Definitely, Yes.
The story opens in Mumbai with a bomb blast in a public bus. Jagdish (Vijay) is on a mission to find the terrorist gang and people behind the blast. There are twists and unexpected turns along the way. The story has enough ammo to fire up Vijay’s fan base.
Thuppakki is Vijay; Vijay is Thuppakki
Vijay has carried the movie from start to finish with his self-assured confidence and trade-mark style. The script makes frequent switch-overs from intense sleeper cell scenes to commercial love/comedy scenes. Vijay was able to make some bumpy transitions look convincing with his acting abilities. As always, Vijay dances effortlessly and comedy comes to him naturally. Vijay’s costumes, pleasant looks and mischievous expressions will surely win him more female fans. Vijay looks fit and younger in his toned muscular physique.
Story, Direction and Screenplay
AR Murugadoss’ engaging story is narrated in gray tones balanced with commercially colourful compromises. The movie may have minor similarities to Ramana which has worked out well again. Murugadoss has done his homework by consulting ex-CBI chief Karthikeyan and the details are blended in nicely while dumbing it down for audience. AR Murugadoss has intentionally slowed down the pacing and narration in critical scenes (e.g., Hospital security chief conversation in the terrace) to get the message across. The dialogues about common people’s (un)willingness to put their life at risk to fight terrorism are well written and delivered by Vijay.Ā Also, theĀ hero putting his sister in a high-risk operation provides the impetus and emotional connect with the audience.
It is interesting to note that the villain (Vidyut) tracks down the hero instead of other way around, which is usually seen. AnotherĀ aspect which is told subtlely is Vijay’s undercover act passing off as a common man similar to the way terrorist sleeper cells operate. Vijay’s exterminating the sleeper cell operations in Mumbai is not revealed to his lover, family or others (except his cop friend Sathyan). This aspect could have been underlined a bit for additional impact and stronger appreciation for Jagdish’s character.
The love/comedy scenes and songs definitely stick out like sore thumb since they are not integrated well with the story line. It is understandable why AR Murugadoss had to make these compromises. We are pointing this out without really complaining since such intrusions have become essential to satisfy the fan base and common audience with diverse set of expectations.
HighlightsĀ
- Stylish portrayal of Vijay in anti-terrorism operationsĀ have a perfect closure with mass elements. For instance, scenes such as simultaneous execution of 12-for-12 sleeper cell killings at precisely the same minute, sister rescue scenes with sniffer dog, and the final scene where he symbolically blows up the ship with his hand gesture and subsequent punch dialogue before villain killing are sure treats for fans.
- AR Murugadoss seems to have taken a tip from his association with Aamir Khan in Ghajini Hindi remake. Upon Aamir’s insistence, some emotional scenes involving Asin’s memory were added after climax action sequences in Hindi version. AR Murugadoss has used similar finish in Thuppakki giving a nice emotional touch and meaning to the movie by extolling the virtues of army.
- Kajal has done her role exceptionally well in perking up the lighter moments with her expressions, dance moves in songs and chirpy love scenes laced with humour. Kajal has good scope in both “Antarctica” song (interesting concept) and “Alaika Laika” (showcasing her dance moves). Kajal’s presence enlivens the scenes and songs for people looking for relief from action scenes.
- Santhosh Sivan‘s Cinematography and Sreekar Prasad‘s editing keep the narration tight despite relatively long running time. The candid capture of Mumbai adds to the style and character of the city. Santosh’s fast working style is critical to the successful shooting of scenes in real locations in Mumbai.Ā Harris scores big in the final minutes with his song (“Poi Varavaa“) dedicated to army jawans which is sure to leave a lump in your throat. Harris’ BGM keeps up the pace and makes the operations look convincing with his theme track.
What could have been better?
- Song picturizations look low-budget. Almost 4 out of 5 songs solely rely on Vijay’s dance moves, which gets a bit repetitive for general public. AR Murugadoss and Santhosh Sivan have pulled out some of the old tricks of picturizing the songs in big stadiums, by using bright incandescent lights in the background to make it look richer. Vijay’s introduction song “Kutti Puli Kootam” and opening fight scenes are speed breakers right after the word “go”.
- Screenplay could have been tighter. Even though the individual scenes were riveting, the bigger purpose required to latch the audience interest lacks full conviction. The objective of killing the head of sleeper-cell (Vidyut) lacks macro-connection resulting in lack of depth for Vijay vs Vidyut’s clash. Some of the lengthy climax fight sequences in the ship could have been trimmed.Ā The final 10+ minutes of man-to-man combat scenes with Vidyut led to some chatter among audience.
Bottomline
With right promotions and word of mouth reaching out to neutral and family audience,Ā Thuppakki is well positioned to get tagged along with Ghilli andĀ Pokiri.
