A tornado over water is called a waterspout. It is characterized by a spiraling funnel-shaped wind current, connecting to a large cumulus or cumulonimbus cloud. Waterspouts frequently occur in tropical areas near the equator.

"Arjohn, next time I do my own show in the Philippines, I would love for you to come and perform with me!," Charice said via her official Twitter account.
Charice also asked her fans (Chasters) to search for Arjohn's contact info.
"Let's find him, Chasters. Please find his FB, or whatever so we can contact him :)," Charice tweeted.
In her other tweets, it was revealed that Chasters were able to do the task Charice asked them and that the concert will be happening before the year ends.
Meanwhile, Arjohn made it to the Twitter Top Trends after guesting on Vice Ganda's show "Gandang Gabi Vice" last night where he performed Justin Bieber's "Baby" and Bugoy Drillon's "Paano Na Kaya."
Known in Pampanga as the singing flute vendor, Arjohn shared on the show that he makes the flutes he sells himself. The street kid also said he sells his flutes at 20 pesos each and that his earnings go to his family.

“He grabbed them, squeezed them then back-punched them. I wouldn’t have reacted that way if he didn’t do it, it was like a punch, it’s the worst feeling.” Taulava told the Philippine Star.
Taulava and Jing were both ejected from the game because of the incident.
After the game, Taulava took time in updating his newly created Twitter page with a statement of apology.
"Would like to apologize to everybody that watched the game today for losing my cool. No excuses for my actions, and I’m sorry," Taulava tweeted.
The Philippines won the said game against Malaysia, 86-68.

It is not really the first time that a video of the singing Aeta boy on Youtube gained so many hits. During the past years, some videos of him uploaded on the popular video sharing site already attracted thousands of views prompting a couple of TV shows on GMA-7 to feature him.
He sells bamboo flutes on the streets of Clark, Pampanga. Singing to his customers is actually his way of getting more sales, a marketing strategy. :D
