This one takes the cake, in my honest opinion. The Mercedes Maybach.





This is the King of all Sedans.

Priced at a little over $358,000

Sexy eh? ;)

ENzo, isnt this the Maybach-mercedes Exelero? the one dubbed as the 8 Million dollar car?

A TV Show Host interviewed a millionaire whose newly married to a young beautiful wife.


Host: So how is it like to be rich?

Millionaire: its great, you gotta buy all the things you want and  travel whenever you wanted too.


Host: so how did you become a millionaire?

Millionaire: because of my wife.

Host: really?? So you gotta be lucky with your wife?

Millionaire: Not exactly...

Host:  (confused with millionaires answer..but didnt mind)...

Host: SO do you believe that behind a man' success is a woman?

Millionaire: not sure about that..

Host: (confused and irritated with the millionaires answer's..)
Host: Why the hell wont you be happy living with a young beautiful woman who made you damn rich?

Millionaire: What made you think she made me rich? Before I married her 6 months ago, I was a multi - billionaire.

Credit crunch is a reduction in the general availability of loans (or credit), or a sudden increase in the cost of obtaining loans from banks.  It is when lenders stop lending and credit becomes tough to obtain.

Macks, It doesnt matter if youre an immigrant or a citizen. Once capability of borrowing money or loans from banks is based  on once credit worthiness.  its about your credit history, your reliability and capability of paying what you owe.. your debt to earning ratio is very impt.. It doesnt also mean getting a big loans first. You cant get  big loans without a good credit history. You have to start from the bottom and build it up.  Everybody goes through that phase.  well, at least everybody in the US does. Its called the BUILDING UP YOUR CREDIT PHASE. 

I started with my lowly secured credit card from Bank of America..

Dili ko motuo nga dila maapektuhan and Canada sa nahitabo sa US. Right now nagsugod na. Gani six months ago Canadian dollar is at par w/ US dollar. Karong buntag ubos na ug 0.20 cents ang Canadian dollar versus US dollar. Three days ago the Linen and Things already declared that they are going to close all their Store arround the Country and asked for a bacnkrupsy protection.  now unsa may itawag nato niini.

my point exactly... its  Global Crisis ... mao gani "GLOBAL"... I believe Mr Uy's Real estate brokerage firm felt the crunch..   if not impossible its too hard to secure loans from banks...  the very least you need to have an excellent credit score..

LMP: Regarding the brokerage business that you have now, do you think that it would still be growing despite the fact that there is a crash in the stock market?

LBU: I don’t worry because that’s in the USA alone. Canada’s not affected.


isnt the credit crunch a global crisis?

I guess Abu Sayaf and other forms of rebellion would die out naturally, even without military action. The logic is simple; if everyone is contempted, if living conditions are fair, there is no rebellion at first place. We have freedom of religion in the Philippines and I don't think there are hendrances in Islamic religion. Muslims will be given special treatment with no discrimination. Like in the US, they are well respected and with equal opportunities like any other Americans, there are Muslim professors, doctors, scientists, police, you name it.

No religion is preaching evil. It is human self interest that makes everything evil and the cause of all trouble.

Here is Saudi Arabia, we are working in harmony with Muslims for decades. Working in foreign culture teaches you humbleness, respect and open mindedness. Infact the Muslims are the closest twin of the Christians in terms of belief and prophets.

i dotn know how true, but ang nakpait lang Mack wla kay freedom of religion sa Saudi. tinuod ba nga dli daw ka pwede mangadye dra .. dakpon daw ka kun makit-an?

Do express yourself clearly with a strong voice and good diction and grammar.
Do pay close attention to your personal appearance; dress to your advantage.
Do make concrete goals in planning for your career.
Do offer a firm handshake.
Do look the interviewer in the eye (but don't stare him or her down).

What Not To Do....
Don't be overbearing, overaggressive or conceited.

Bran, next month is the first death anniversary of my father. This Saturday is my 29th birthday. My birthday will be filled with gloom. And my father's death anniversary will be doubly sorrowful.

Bran, I haven't recovered from the immeasurable pain over my father's death nearly a year ago, and now Aya, who is a close personal friend of mine, one of our pioneers in Tubag Bohol, and who is a beautiful soul to all of us here, is gone. My heart is a picture of gloomy, empty land.

Today I tried to convince myself that I was just dreaming, but death is so real. And the pain, Bran, is so shattering.

I know how it feels Mike. Till now, Im not sure if I really had accepted that my father is gone. Sometimes at night, I feel lonely and would  remember the good times with my family.  But the feeling of missing my dad seems odd. I missed him like the way it was when he was still around. At the back of my mind, it feels like I would still be able to see him kun muuli ko sa pinas. It feels like I missed him since im far away but would still be able to see him not like I missed him and would never see him again. Well, at least not in this world.

What Happens When We Die?
By M.J. STEPHEY
Tue Sep 23, 6:40 PM ET



A fellow at New York City's Weill Cornell Medical Center, Dr. Sam Parnia is one of the world's leading experts on the scientific study of death. Last week Parnia and his colleagues at the Human Consciousness Project announced their first major undertaking: a 3-year exploration of the biology behind "out-of-body" experiences. The study, known as AWARE (AWAreness during REsuscitation), involves the collaboration of 25 major medical centers through Europe, Canada and the U.S. and will examine some 1,500 survivors of cardiac arrest. TIME spoke with Parnia about the project's origins, its skeptics and the difference between the mind and the brain.

ADVERTISEMENT

What sort of methods will this project use to try and verify people's claims of "near-death" experience?


When your heart stops beating, there is no blood getting to your brain. And so what happens is that within about 10 sec., brain activity ceases - as you would imagine. Yet paradoxically, 10% or 20% of people who are then brought back to life from that period, which may be a few minutes or over an hour, will report having consciousness. So the key thing here is, Are these real, or is it some sort of illusion? So the only way to tell is to have pictures only visible from the ceiling and nowhere else, because they claim they can see everything from the ceiling. So if we then get a series of 200 or 300 people who all were clinically dead, and yet they're able to come back and tell us what we were doing and were able see those pictures, that confirms consciousness really was continuing even though the brain wasn't functioning.


How does this project relate to society's perception of death?


People commonly perceive death as being a moment - you're either dead or you're alive. And that's a social definition we have. But the clinical definition we use is when the heart stops beating, the lungs stop working, and as a consequence the brain itself stops working. When doctors shine a light into someone's pupil, it's to demonstrate that there is no reflex present. The eye reflex is mediated by the brain stem, and that's the area that keeps us alive; if that doesn't work, then that means that the brain itself isn't working. At that point, I'll call a nurse into the room so I can certify that this patient is dead. Fifty years ago, people couldn't survive after that.


How is technology challenging the perception that death is a moment?


Nowadays, we have technology that's improved so that we can bring people back to life. In fact, there are drugs being developed right now - who knows if they'll ever make it to the market - that may actually slow down the process of brain-cell injury and death. Imagine you fast-forward to 10 years down the line; and you've given a patient, whose heart has just stopped, this amazing drug; and actually what it does is, it slows everything down so that the things that would've happened over an hour, now happen over two days. As medicine progresses, we will end up with lots and lots of ethical questions.


But what is happening to the individual at that time? What's really going on? Because there is a lack of blood flow, the cells go into a kind of a frenzy to keep themselves alive. And within about 5 min. or so they start to damage or change. After an hour or so the damage is so great that even if we restart the heart again and pump blood, the person can no longer be viable, because the cells have just been changed too much. And then the cells continue to change so that within a couple of days the body actually decomposes. So it's not a moment; it's a process that actually begins when the heart stops and culminates in the complete loss of the body, the decompositions of all the cells. However, ultimately what matters is, What's going on to a person's mind? What happens to the human mind and consciousness during death? Does that cease immediately as soon as the heart stops? Does it cease activity within the first 2 sec., the first 2 min.? Because we know that cells are continuously changing at that time. Does it stop after 10 min., after half an hour, after an hour? And at this point we don't know.


What was your first interview like with someone who had reported an out-of-body experience?


Eye-opening and very humbling. Because what you see is that, first of all, they are completely genuine people who are not looking for any kind of fame or attention. In many cases they haven't even told anybody else about it because they're afraid of what people will think of them. I have about 500 or so cases of people that I've interviewed since I first started out more than 10 years ago. It's the consistency of the experiences, the reality of what they were describing. I managed to speak to doctors and nurses who had been present who said these patients had told them exactly what had happened, and they couldn't explain it. I actually documented a few of those in my book What Happens When We Die because I wanted people to get both angles - not just the patients' side but also the doctors' side - and see how it feels for the doctors to have a patient come back and tell them what was going on. There was a cardiologist that I spoke with who said he hasn't told anyone else about it because he has no explanation for how this patient could have been able to describe in detail what he had said and done. He was so freaked out by it that he just decided not to think about it anymore.


Why do you think there is such resistance to studies like yours?


Because we're pushing through the boundaries of science, working against assumptions and perceptions that have been fixed. A lot of people hold this idea that, well, when you die, you die; that's it. Death is a moment - you know you're either dead or alive. All these things are not scientifically valid, but they're social perceptions. If you look back at the end of the 19th century, physicists at that time had been working with Newtonian laws of motion, and they really felt they had all the answers to everything that was out there in the universe. When we look at the world around us, Newtonian physics is perfectly sufficient. It explains most things that we deal with. But then it was discovered that actually when you look at motion at really small levels - beyond the level of the atoms - Newton's laws no longer apply. A new physics was needed, hence, we eventually ended up with quantum physics. It caused a lot of controversy - even Einstein himself didn't believe in it.


Now, if you look at the mind, consciousness, and the brain, the assumption that the mind and brain are the same thing is fine for most circumstances, because in 99% of circumstances we can't separate the mind and brain; they work at the exactly the same time. But then there are certain extreme examples, like when the brain shuts down, that we see that this assumption may no longer seem to hold true. So a new science is needed in the same way that we had to have a new quantum physics. The CERN particle accelerator may take us back to our roots. It may take us back to the first moments after the Big Bang, the very beginning. With our study, for the first time, we have the technology and the means to be able to investigate this. To see what happens at the end for us. Does something continue?

Wife Vs Husband       
A couple drove down a country road for several miles, not saying a word.

An earlier discussion had led to an argument and neither of them wanted to

concede their position. As they passed a barnyard of mules, goats, and pigs,

the  wife  asked sarcastically, "Relatives of yours?"

"Yep," the husband replied, "in-laws."

Men = Women ? Who is the Boss
Everybody on earth dies and goes to heaven. (Don't ask why or how, it just happens...)

God comes and says, "I want the men to make two lines. One line for the men that dominated their women on earth and the other line for the men that were dominated by their women. Also, I want all the women to go with St. Peter."

With that said and done, the next time God looked, the women are gone and there are two lines. The line of the men that were dominated by their women was 100 miles long, and in the line of men that dominated their women, there was only one man.

God got mad and said, "You men should be ashamed of yourselves. I created you in my image and you were all whipped by your mates. Look at the only one of my sons that stood up and made me proud. Learn from him! Tell them my son, how did you manage to be the only one in this line?"

And the man replied, "I don't know, my wife told me to stand here."

(i think its Aunmentado who had the most accomplishments as a governor. nobody else comes close)....

it depends on what you mean by accomplishment.  like the GHOST billion peso-dam in talibon? is that accomplishment?  or, being a very good talker, making boholanos cry thru your speeches? is that accomplishment?  or buying millions worth of vehicles for yourself and your minions using people's money? pray tell us...

what has relampagos accomplish as governor? mangawat ...

i'm just wondering why rene relampagos would run for a seat in congress when he can run again for governor. i'm no rene fan but in my observation, bohol made a lot of advancements in many fields under his watch. among the many people listed under the bohol gubernatoriables somewhere in this site, it is my assessment that no one comes close to what rene has accomplished.
