Thanks.

Absolutely, peanut kisses gyod and Jojie's Bakeshop is located, where? Address please.

Okay, bread is just a bread that is made out of flour, water, salt and other ingredients to make a bread. How about a loaf of bread that is called "une baguette" that are sold in Boulangerie (hot bread shop)? Very delicious when it's made and bought in France. Les Croissants is my favorite while having breakfast in Paris.

Nothing can top our homeland Pandesal (Pandisal ba?).  When I was a little girl while living in Anda, my family used to owned a bakery shop sa Central gyod. My Aunt and Uncle would make this fresh from the pogon pandesal that were hot, soft and slightly brown at the top delicious pandesal. Breakfast of champion! 

Bread is more than just a bread.

dear prinsesasadagat,

Jojie's Bakeshop has many branches all over Tagbilaran City. You can always find Jojie's Bakeshop in some 20 towns around Bohol.

Don't miss its "banana cake." I just love it. And its sliced bread? I ate it everyday when I was still in our country.

Now, you're talking about Les Croissants in France. Where in the world can I find that lovely bread here in Thailand? If you happen to have a stopover in Bangkok on your way to the Philippines, the hornycouple would love to host you, provided that you bring them some samples of Les Croissants. How shall we pronounce it?

Pandesal is dead. Mahal na kaayo ang harina.

Bakeshop in Central? Where in Poblacion, Anda? Mao ba ni siya kadtong ginasuroy na moingon ang mamaligya: "Pan init, sa tiyan manggunit."

Yes, bread is more than just a bread "pag naay palaman."

It is good for me that I have been afflicted, that I may learn Your statutes. â€"Psalm 119:71

During the Depression era in the 1930s, Little Orphan Annie was a popular comic strip and radio program. Years later, it was the basis for the musical comedy Annie. The opening scene shows Annie in an orphanage where the girls are forced to clean and scrub in the middle of the night. Expressing their feelings of helplessness, they sing: “It’s the hard-knock life for us. No one cares for you a smidge when you’re in an orphanage. It’s the hard-knock life.”

When we talk about “the school of hard knocks,” we’re referring to the difficult experiences in life that have instructed us. Although it’s part of human nature to avoid pain, the believer can learn from painful circumstances.

The psalmist wisely said, “It is good for me that I have been afflicted, that I may learn Your statutes” (119:71). His particular heartache was the slander of his good name (vv.69-70). Yet even in this, the psalmist realized that his circumstances could teach him to value the Word of God.

What problem are you facing today? Hand it over to the Lord in prayer. Then meditate on Scripture and thank God for the life lessons you are about to learn. The Lord of heaven and earth is sovereignâ€"even over “the school of hard knocks.” â€"Dennis Fisher

God is still on the throne,
He never forsaketh His own;
His promise is true, He will not forget you,
God is still on the throne. â€"Suffield

Our afflictions are not designed to break us but to bring us to God.

Give us this day our daily bread. â€"Matthew 6:11

Not long ago, I traveled to the Democratic Republic of Congo to lead a Bible conference. I took in the beauty of the Nyungwe Forest and Ruzizi River, which separates Congo from Rwanda. I experienced the amazing hospitality of the Congolese people, and I was moved by their sincere faith in God’s provision.

Because unemployment, poverty, and malnutrition are serious problems there, the people often don’t know where their next meal will come from. So each time they sit down to eat, they thank God and ask Him to provide the next meal.

Their prayer sounds a lot like Jesus’ prayer in Matthew 6:11, “Give us this day our daily bread.” The word bread refers to any food. The phrase “this day” indicates provision that came to them one day at a time.

Many first-century workers were paid one day at a time, so a few days’ illness could spell tragedy. “Daily” could be translated “for the coming day.” The prayer would read: “Give us today our bread for the coming day.” It was an urgent prayer to those who lived from hand to mouth.

This prayer calls Jesus’ followers everywhere to recognize that our ability to work and earn our food comes from God’s hand. â€"Marvin Williams

Lord, thank You for our daily bread
And everything that You provide;
Increase our faith and help us see
That Your supply is deep and wide. â€"Sper

Our problems are never a strain on God’s provision.

The Lord has filled him with the Spirit of God . . . to design artistic works. â€"Exodus 35:31-32

Why plant flowers? You can’t eat them,” said my father-in-law after witnessing my spring ritual of filling pots with fragrant and colorful treasures from the garden store. Jay’s dad is an engineerâ€"a practical sort of person. He can make anything work, but making it beautiful is not a priority. He values function over form, usefulness over aesthetics.

God created us with different gifts. Engineers who work for the glory of God design machines that make life easier. The Lord also created artists, who make life more pleasant by creating beautiful things for the glory of God and the enjoyment of others.

When we think of art in worship, we usually think of music. But other art forms have long had a role in glorifying God. The calling of Bezalel demonstrates God’s regard for fine art (Ex. 35:30-35). God commissioned him to beautify the first official place of worship: the tabernacle. God’s purpose for the arts, says Gene Edward Veith, is “to glorify God and to manifest beauty.”

When artistic talent is enlivened by the Spirit of God, it becomes an act of worship that then can become a witness to point people to Christ. God has greatly enriched our lives with beauty. And we in turn express our gratitude by displaying His glory in our art. â€"Julie Ackerman Link

Father, may our workâ€"whatever it may beâ€"
draw the kind of attention that causes others
to praise and worship You. Amen.

Do all things for the glory of God.

By Jeric G. Contreras

THEY SAY, WHAT DOESN’T KILL YOU MAKES you stronger. This is true of trials come to test one’s strength and faith. I faced what I now consider the toughest part of my life as a son of OFW parents last year.

Here’s the story of my family.

My parents are both OFWs. I was grade four in a public elementary school when my mother, Marina, left our family to work in Japan. During that time, my father Bert, who also worked as a carpenter there, unexpectedly came home after suffering a fracture on his knee from a fire accident in the province of Chiba, Japan.

My mother immediately took the big risk of working there even without a working visa. She needed to go despite her reservations about leaving us; besides, we were four children in the family who needed to study. She left us hoping that her efforts abroad would give us a secure life and a better future.

I was just a young boy but I realized her reason for leaving us.

Since our parents became OFWs, my siblings and I have not experienced a complete family life. When our father was working abroad, mother was taking care of us here. When our father stopped working abroad, our mother took the responsibility of being the breadwinner of the family.

It is really hard to cope with life’s struggles, trials and challenges without the guidance and presence of parents.

We are fortunate enough - despite the situation, I’m proud to say that we have all grown up mature and well-disciplined individuals. None among my siblings has taken the wrong path. All of us take our studies seriously since it’s one way of reciprocating and appreciating our parents’ sacrifices for us.

After all, our mother’s main goal in leaving was to send us to school. She successfully fulfilled her mission. All four of us graduated last March.

Mother arrested

Unfortunately, she was not able to see us march and receive our diplomas. One year before our graduation, she was arrested by the Japanese police for having overstayed twice in Japan. She is at present serving a three-year sentence in jail.

I consider the previous year as the most challenging and difficult time of our life as a family. Since her arrest, she could no longer send money for our needs. My sister Jacky, 20, and I were graduating students at the time of her arrest; we had to find a way to survive.

I was taking up AB Philosophy at San Beda; she was pursuing a nursing degree at Far Eastern University.

Multitasking

Our two other siblings, Jervee, 12, and Jay-R, 16, were graduating from elementary and high school respectively.

It was not an easy year for the family, most especially for me. I was attending to my duties and responsibilities as a campus leader while performing my task as a Sangguniang Kabataanofficial in Hagonoy, Bulacan. I also had to maintain my good academic standing since I was expected to graduate cum laude. It was difficult to adjust, but I had to be strong for our mother and for our family.

Being the eldest in the family, I had to show them how strong and determined a brother I was. The situation did not deter us from pursuing what we knew could be best for us. Despite the seemingly tough situation, my siblings and I did not give up.

I was thinking how my mom would feel as I was receiving my college diploma. I was with my father when I graduated, cum laude, at San Beda-Mendiola.

Jacky received her nursing degree last April at FEU. She took the Nursing Board Exams on June 10. Jay-R is taking up an IT-related course at the Bulacan State University.

Jervee is now a freshman high school student at Saint Anne’s Catholic High School. My mother would surely feel proud of the feats her children achieved and the accolades they received in the midst of trials and difficulties. After all, our mom’s dream was to see us grow as successful individuals.

I have not sent her a letter for almost two months now. She has no knowledge about all these stories. She will certainly be very glad to know that her eldest son is now a municipal councilor in Hagonoy, Bulacan. I took the risk of running for councilor immediately after graduation. I had no choice but to heed the clamor of my kababayan in the province. Let this be my way of sharing my experiences unto people, especially the young ones. Trials and difficulties test how strong we are.

I have temporarily deferred my plan of enrolling in a law school this year. Perhaps, next year, when she comes home, I will pursue further studies. Meanwhile, I have to focus on my new job as a young public servant. (The Philippine Daily Inquirer)

CEBU, Philippinesâ€"She was still wearing her school uniform.

Chevaun Julve, an alert five-year-old student fresh from kindergarten class, saved her four-year-old brother and three-year-old cousin from a fire that engulfed a house in barangay Guadalupe in Cebu City before noon yesterday.

“The curtain was on fire,” said Chevaun in Cebuano.

“I called my brother and cousin and brought them downstairs.”

The house in Doña Cristina Subdivision was owned by Jose Levi and Violita Ramirez, Chevaun’s uncle and aunt.

They were tending their small canteen inside MEPZ I in Lapu-Lapu City when the fire broke out. Only their three-year-old son Stephan was inside the house, along with Chevaun's brother Nataniel.

Presciosa Julve, Chevaun’s mother, said she and her husband Jonathan had just fetched their daughter from her school in barangay Labangon. When they reached the village, she said, she dropped by a nearby store to buy lunch, while Jonathan and her daughter proceeded to their house.

Chevaun, however, continued on to the Ramirez house, to look for the two boys who usually played there.

By then, and unknown to Chevaun, the fire had already started on the second floor. As she was about to go up, however, Chevaun noticed that a curtain had caught fire.

By the time she brought the two boys out, her father, seeing the smoke, had already rushed to the burning house.

For her spontaneous act of courage, Cheavuan will likely be honored by Cebu City officials.

City Councilor Gerardo Carillo said he would file a resolution in Wednesday’s council session to commend her heroism.

At the same time, Carillo said he wanted to see how the city government could help the girl, especially in the area of education.

“I will study what assistance and how we can justify the grant of assistance to the child because of her display of heroism. Maayo ang iyang deeds. It is right to recognize this so that others will also follow her example,” he told Cebu Daily News.

Cause of fire

Property damage was estimated at P25,000. The fire alarm was received at 11:26 a.m. Fire investigator Felix Romero said the two boys may have started the fire, as they were playing with either a match or a lighter.

The fire started under the curtains then spread above, he said. The two boys were in shock, he said, and just stared at the flames. Romero said they were fortunate that Chevaun went upstairs to rescue the two kids.

Violita, Stephan’s mother, said yesterday was the first time she had left her son behind. She said he was not feeling well, and left her in the care of her mother, who also lived nearby. Stephan has two siblings already in school.

“Kato ra gyo'y higayona akong gibilin akong anak, kay gi-ubo man. Pero ako gyod na siyang permi dad-on,” Violita said.

She said her family had transferred to the house only a week ago. Now all of their property is gone, she said.

Another fire

A separate fire in barangay Day-as yesterday afternoon had a less happy outcome.

A 44-year-old polio victim died after failing to escape from his burning house. A total of 10 houses burned down in the 22-minute fire, leaving 25 families, about 200 residents in all, homeless.

Carillo, action officer of the Cebu City Disaster Coordinating Council (CCDCC), said the affected families would be accommodated at the nearby Zapatera gym and given food assistance.

Social workers also brought the body of Rolly Tura to the San Fernando Funeral Parlor.

Tura was seen waving for help from the burning house, but his neighbors were afraid to approach because the flames were already big, said Day-as barangay captain Mchael Ocleasa.

He said the victim was wheelchair-bound because both legs were weakened by polio.

Tura's two brothers were not around during the incident because they were at work, according to the barangay captain.

Tura’s body was found near the door of their house, an indication that he had tried to escape the fire.

Another resident 68-year-old Domingo Globa also sustained a minor burn on his face. (Cebu Daily News)

MANILA, Philippines -- Bombs went off on two buses in the southern Philippines Friday, killing at least eight passengers and injuring 12 others, police said.

At around 6 p.m., an explosion ripped through a Davao City-bound bus owned by the Weena Bus Company, said Senior Superintendent Anselmo Pinili, Davao del Sur police provincial director.

The packed passenger vehicle was about to leave its terminal in Bansalan town, in Davao del Sur when it was hit by the explosion, Regional police director Chief Superintendent Andres Caro II said.

Caro said at least eight people were killed, including the conductor and driver of the ill-fated bus. Authorities warned the death toll could still rise as at least 12 others were seriously injured.

“No group has claimed responsibility for the attack,” Chief Inspector Sherwin Butil, the town’s police chief, said. "We're still investigating whether Muslim militants or criminal groups engaged in extortion were behind the bombing.”

Bomb disposal experts were immediately dispatched to the area to conduct an investigation.

Police still had a cordon around the area in case there were other explosives around, Butil said.

About 20 minutes earlier in Cotabato City, another bomb exploded aboard a parked bus from the same company.

Eddie Soledad, manager of the Weena Express terminal in Cotabato City, said nobody was injured because the passengers and the bus' crew had already disembarked when the 5:40 explosion occurred.

He said based on police investigation, the bomb was an improvised explosive device. "The bus was in shatters," he said.

In the Bansalan blast, authorities at the scene identified six of the eight dead passengers as Pepe Villotes, Wilson Menil, Ricardo Tolibas, Corporal Dariel Potestas, bus conductor Arpie Antelino, and driver Romeo Lu.

Wounded were Joy Teves, Rey Mendez , Jean Lu, Lorelyn Aben, Merlyn Sanchez, Erwin Sisneros, Rodrigo Tirando, Vivencio Laganse, Joseph Ryan Granada, Mary Ann Contenidas, Lucia Lofranco and Diane Lofranco.

Witnesses said the bus was carrying many passengers at the time of the explosion.

Curious townspeople milled around the area, looking at the blast site where at least one bloodied body could still be seen, lying on the ground, near the shattered remains of the bus.

Glass and pieces of twisted metal littered the area along with discarded bags and bits of clothing.

Most of the dead and injured were in the front of the bus according to company employee Danilo Barimbao.

A passenger of the ill-fated bus told the Philippine Daily Inquirer that two men boarded the bus in Kidapawan City in North Cotabato. One of the men sat behind the driver, while the other one, who was carrying a black backpack, sat near the second door at the bus' middle part, she added.

She said she also noticed that the two were suspiciously "talking via signal."

"They were nodding at each other. When the bus was about to leave, the one sitting at the second door disembarked," the woman said, adding she did not notice the other man.

Another passenger, who was seated beside the suspect, reminded him of his backpack "but he said he was just going to urinate," she said.

The man was allegedly holding a device, similar to a remote. "It was too small for a cellphone," she said.

When other passengers noticed that the man was in a hurry, they immediately suspected that the backpack contained a bomb.

The conductor picked it up and placed it near the driver.

Another passenger, she said, opened the bag and saw that it contained sand and a ketchup container.

"Then the passengers panicked forcing the conductor to bring it down. In less than 10 seconds, it exploded," she said.

The latest explosion occurred as Washington warned of terror attacks in Central Mindanao.

A week ago, five people were hurt when a bomb exploded aboard a Weena Express in the southern town of Matalam and on May 18 a bomb exploded aboard another company bus at a terminal in Cotabato, leaving three dead -- including a five-year-old boy -- and wounding 30 others.

But police have previously said that extortion rather than terrorism is the likely motive of the bombings.

Just before Friday's twin blasts, a letter from someone calling himself "Commander Barumbado" was sent to the company demanding P2 million ($4,300) in protection money, prompting the bus firm to reduce the number of its buses plying the Cotabato-Davao route from 30 to 10.

But US bomb experts, who helped investigate the earlier Matalam bomb attack, ruled out the involvement of the Jemaah Islamiyah in the incident, saying it was the work of amateurs.

MANILA, Philippines -- The World Health Organization (WHO) has urged mothers to breastfeed their children in the first hour of life and continue to do so for the next six months, without resorting to bottle feeding.

“It is beyond dispute that breast milk is the safest, easiest and least expensive way to protect a child’s health in the vital first years of life. Breast milk offers a newly born the perfect mix of nutrients and is full of antibodies. It constitutes the first immunization a child receives,” Said WHO country representative Dr. Jean-Marc Olivé in announcing World Breastfeeding Week 2007, from August 1 to 7.

Olivé said each year 16,000 Philippine children die before their fifth birthday because of inappropriate feeding practices. “Many of these deaths could be avoided if the mothers breastfed their children,” he said.

The theme for World Breastfeeding Week 2007, “Breastfeeding: The 1st Hour -- Save One Million Babies!,” highlights new evidence that if all women begin breastfeeding within one hour after their child’s birth, it would prevent one million newborn deaths globally. The study, conducted in Ghana, Africa, showed 41 percent of all babies who die during the first two to 20 hours of their lives could have been saved. World Breastfeeding Week incorporates International Breastfeeding Day on August 1.

Olivé added that “In the Philippines, baby-friendly hospitals are vital in promoting breastfeeding and in helping ensure quality of care for all mothers. At the same time, strengthening and ensuring compliance with the 1986 Milk Code (authored by then President Corazon C. Aquino,) will help protect mothers from misleading information that affects their decision to initiate and maintain breastfeeding.”

The Milk Code underscores the need to protect and promote breastfeeding and recommends the appropriate regulation of marketing and distribution of substitutes and related products.

WHO recommends that mothers start breastfeeding one hour after birth, that they breastfeed exclusively for the first six months and then continue breastfeeding up to two years and beyond. Appropriate additional foods that are safe and affordable, should be introduced, to complement breastfeeding, from about six months.

More than 20 studies conducted around the world have shown that heavy economic losses are associated with the use of milk substitutes rather than breast milk. (Philippine Daily Inquirer)

More college students from private schools have transferred to state universities and colleges (SUCs) this year due to rising costs of education, according to a militant youth organization.

Citing records from the Commission on Higher Education (CHEd), Kabataan partylist group, showed an exodus of college students enrolled in private schools to SUCs over the last two decades.

The group noted that in 1980, only 10 percent of college students were studying in state schools. By 1994, the number went up to 21 percent and at present already accounts for almost 40 percent of tertiary population, according to the youth organization.

"But many of these transferees will find themselves dropping out of college," Raymond Palatino, Kabataan president, said in a statement, as he warned that the situation would result to a higher number of college dropouts this school year.

"The problem is, there are no more rooms in state schools either. Not only are they few now and their enrolment quotas limited, they are also haunted by increases in tuition and other fees thus forcing many state scholars to leave,” he added.

Palatino said SUCs are also forced to accept only a limited number of students due to financial constraints.

He noted that this schoolyear, only 12,053 applicants qualified in the University of the Philippines College Admission Test (UPCAT). More than 60,000 high school graduates all over the country take the UPCAT every year.

Likewise, only 8,523 college hopefuls qualified in the Polytechnic University of the Philippines College Entrance Test (PUPCET) out of 80,000 applicants, according to Palatino.

“But many of these successful examinees did not enroll this schoolyear,” Palatino said.

He said the 300 percent tuition hike in UP led to a significant decline in the freshman enrollment in several course offerings.

“The Office of the Student Regent earlier placed the no-show rate or the number of UPCAT passers who did not enroll at 20 to 40 percent,” he said.

Palatino said that access to public higher education institutions, which are the last resort for students who want to obtain a college degree, has become impossible to many college hopefuls.

"While it is true that SUCs offer tuition lower than private schools, tuition rate and miscellaneous fees in state schools and universities have seen the biggest increases in recent years, thus making it also inaccessible to ordinary students,” he explained.

He blamed the annual cutbacks in the education budget and the government's rationalization policy, which seeks to reduce the number of state schools, led to the hike in school fees and subsequent decline in enrollment.

The policy of rationalization allows SUCs to be treated no longer as national agencies performing socially-oriented activities and hence entitled to government subsidy, but as income-earning entities, Palatino explained.

"This further translates into incentives for money-making tertiary schools, thereby fully encouraging the commercialization of education. The policy has ensured corporate dominance even in public education," he lamented.

Kabataan disclosed that from 271 in 1996, the number of public tertiary institutions went down to only 111 in 2006. CHEd figures also show declining enrollment figures in public tertiary since 1997, from a growth rate of 20.75 percent that year to only 0.9 percent by 2002.

Palatino called on the next Congress to conduct a comprehensive review of existing education policies similar to the Education Commission of 1992.

The youth group also urged lawmakers to pass pending bills seeking to institute reforms in the country’s educational system.

Among the bills awaiting approval are the proposed moratorium on tuition and other fee increases and amendments to the Education Act of 1982 which placed private tertiary education in a deregulated environment

Palatino particularly emphasized the need to resolve the controversy created by the “anomalous” suspension of CHED Memorandum Order No. 14 or the guidelines for tuition and other fee increase applications and its subsequent amendments last February. (Delfin Mallari Jr., Philippine Daily Inquirer)

i know this couple all too well and, yes, they WILL add spice and everything nice (and kinky???) to... whatever. and why green? well, isn't it obvious why?

yes, riva, the couple will bare everything... private life is dead. 

Yadz, laughter is the best medicine.

Tubag Bohol makes friends. Peace!

Ghen, run to the nearest drugstore and buy Visine or Eye-mo. And sleep well tonight.

Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome, ED.

Ed, feel free to introduce yourself to us. There's a section for that purpose.

We are all friendly Boholanos here.

Ask Yadz... 

Welcome Virgilia Belderol to Tubag Bohol.

We are glad that you are here and we hope to see you here everyday for your daily dose of hope, news, fun, and tears. 

Do you drink bahalina? 

Don't scatter your sweats here.

Be their guest.

One of these days, Mike, we will tell you about THAT colorful past.

When I was living through that past, I found it painful and frustrating. Now, it's just funny, the stuff soaps are made of. I wouldn't trade that past for anything oi because to be mushy about it, when Paul and Rose got married, I lost one love but gained two. I love 'em both, these two, and one of these days, I won't settle for a platonic relationship. I've my sights on Harley na gani. I already told the little 'un I'd be Mrs. Robinson to his young graduate. 

Rose and Paul, please send your two boys to Singapore a week before Chin invades Thailand.

Let us not jeopardize their bright future just because a woman who found and lost love now wants to compensate what she missed in the past by planning to duplicate her hormones through one of your sons' bloodstreams.

Chin, forget about Harley. Hapit na ka mag-menopause. 

Ah, the past, I wish to rewrite your past.

This takes me back to HSS, circa 1998.

Mike, it's a pity I couldn't fully describe the teachers I had. Yes, I've rough edges, but if you had the mentors I had and learned the things I did, you wouldn't be able to help being rough, too. You'd be outspoken and unafraid. You'd be equal parts scathing and kind. You'd be fun to talk to because you've no use for the trite or the commonplace. You won't always be polite, too, because politeness can often keep you from saying the things you want or need to blurt out. Civility and the need to keep up appearances, you see, can sometimes be why people spend their lives wasting away.

So yeah, I'm rough because all my life, I've moved, interacted, talked, and thought with people who are as rough as they are brilliant. To people used to the smoothness of the conventional and the typical, roughness would be appalling. I find it appealing, however, because I know how hard it is to find.

If Rose enjoys taking the road less traveled, so do I. To some extent (to a one-school-year extent), she is partly responsible for molding me into the person I have become. For that, Rose, I'm grateful.


Disclaimer: Yech! I bet I'd want to delete this an hour after. Hahaha

Hello Chin,

If Rose were my high school teacher, I would have been the next proofreader of FHM Magazine.

And, Chin, if you were my classmate in high school, unfortunately and fortunately, I would have invited you to be the only flower girl on my wedding.

And if Paul were my classmate in high school, he would have been your husband today.

This is our lot.

For all the joys and pains, give thanks to our God in Christ Jesus.


Sincerely,
Mike 

They deleted my profile.

Ang nabilin: somthing about my occupation

They did the same thing to my second account.

Dear Friendster,

I can always forgive you. 

Sincerely,

Mike

P.S. I will always love you and will never run out of forgiveness.

Mike,

Congratulations!
Just like in any party, it's the crowd's attitude and aura that make it worth the while.
Here, it's the depth and width of what our members write
The wit, the fun.... the sensitivity.... the quality... the people

Congratulations to all of us, GEC! We are on the same "kariton."
