The Man and Boy got off and tried to think what to do. They thought and they thought, till at last they cut down a pole, tied the donkey's feet to it, and raised the pole and the donkey to their shoulders. They went along amid the laughter of all who met them till they came to Market Bridge, when the Donkey, getting one of his feet loose, kicked out and caused the Boy to drop his end of the pole. In the struggle the Donkey fell over the bridge, and his fore-feet being tied together he was drowned.

"That will teach you," said an old man who had followed them:

"Please all, and you will please none."

So the Man ordered his Boy to get off, and got on himself. But they hadn't gone far when they passed two women, one of whom said to the other: "Shame on that lazy lout to let his poor little son trudge along."

Well, the Man didn't know what to do, but at last he took his Boy up before him on the Donkey. By this time they had come to the town, and the passers-by began to jeer and point at them. The Man stopped and asked what they were scoffing at. The men said: "Aren't you ashamed of yourself for overloading that poor donkey of yours and your hulking son?"

by Aesop


A Man and his son were once going with their Donkey to market. As they were walking along by its side a countryman passed them and said: "You fools, what is a Donkey for but to ride upon?"

So the Man put the Boy on the Donkey and they went on their way. But soon they passed a group of men, one of whom said: "See that lazy youngster, he lets his father walk while he rides."

Cases of abuse of domestic workers, who come from poorer regional countries such as Indonesia and Cambodia, have frequently surfaced in Malaysia. It is heavily dependent on foreigners as domestic helpers as locals shun the work.

"It should be a lesson for all other employers. One of the violations that are increasing is deprivation of food... as a form of punishment. This is worrying," said Glorene Das, an official with migrant labour rights organisation Tenaganita.

"In totality, the deceased did not receive enough food and had sustained injuries that were inflicted over time," Zamani said.

The couple initially were charged with murder, which carries the death penalty in Malaysia. But the charge was reduced to culpable homicide punishable by a maximum 30 years in jail, Tan said.

The couple's lawyer could not immediately be reached.

Police said she died from acute gastritis and ulcers likely caused by lack of food over a long period. The 23-year-old had been working for the family for eight months.

High court judge Zamani Rahim was quoted by local media as saying the case had damaged Malaysia's image, scaring away other domestic workers. The evidence showed the maid was denied food over a long period, he said.

Hardware store owners Soh Chew Tong, 44, and his wife Chin Chui Ling, 42, were found guilty of culpable homicide at a high court in the northern state of Penang, said prosecutor Tan Guat Cheng.

The prison term will run from the day of their arrest in April last year, shortly after their maid Mey Sichan was found dead by paramedics.

She weighed just 26 kilograms (57 pounds) and had bruises on her body.

VATICAN CITY (AP) -- Pope Francis has denounced the global financial system, blasting the "cult of money" that he says is tyrannizing the poor and turning humans into expendable consumer goods.

In his first major speech on the subject, Francis demanded Thursday that financial and political leaders reform the global financial system to make it more ethical and concerned for the common good. He said: "Money has to serve, not to rule!"

It's a message Francis delivered on many occasions when he was archbishop of Buenos Aires, and it's one that was frequently stressed by retired Pope Benedict XVI.

Francis, who has made clear the poor are his priority, made the comments as he greeted his first group of new ambassadors accredited to the Holy See.

Treatments

Simply spending more time with your feline friend can help turn that kitty's frown upside down, especially if there's been a change in routine or another person or pet has moved in. Try introducing your cat to new toys and play with him or her for at least 30 minutes a day.

During cold, dark months, provide your kitty some extra light - leave a lamp on, pull back the shades or open the blinds.

You can also try a product like Feliway, which uses pheremones to help relieve feline stress.

If your cat isn't eating or has exhibited symptoms of depression for several days, take your pet to the vet for a checkup. If a veterinarian gives your cat a clean bill of health, discuss the possibility of depression. Your vet may recommend behavioral modification techniques or prescription antidepressants.

Depression symptoms

A depressed kitty can exhibit a variety of symptoms, but one of the main indicators of depression or other illness is loss of appetite. If your feline leaves food untouched - especially for more than a day - you should consult your veterinarian.

Additional signs of feline depression include the following:

• Loss of interest in playtime
• Lack of grooming
• Signs of lethargy or changes in personality
• Aggression
• Increased sleeping
• Hiding in an isolated place or rarely used room

However, keep in mind that these symptoms could also indicate a number of other medical conditions.

Is My Cat Depressed?
By Laura Moss, Mother Nature Network





People aren't the only ones who get the blues - cats can suffer from depression too.

Behaviorists first recognized depression in cats in the 1990s, and felines can become depressed for several reasons.

A major disruption such as moving, adding or losing a family member or a change in schedule can trigger it. If a cat's owner is going through a stressful time, the animal could also mimic that unhappy behavior.

Donkey is seen as being euphoric, annoying, talkative, donkey-like, and sensitive. He enjoys such foods as waffles, parfait and "upside-down coconut soufflé with mango chutney sauce." In a scene about Merlin's bonfire, Donkey's sweet tooth gets the best of him, for he sees only a fudge torte on it in the enchanted smoke. Eddie Murphy called Donkey "a really positive character. He's always looking at the bright side of everything, trying to work it out. A happy-go-lucky donkey." Donkey was modeled after Pericles (born 1994; also known as Perry), a real miniature donkey from Barron Park, Palo Alto, California.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia





Donkey is a fictional talking donkey created by American Author, William Steig and adapted by DreamWorks Animation who was the secondary protagonist in Shrek! and the film series with the same name and is voiced by Eddie Murphy. He currently has six hybrid donkey-dragon children, with his wife, Dragon.

Despite grandfather’s loss, “Samsam” will still help city
By Brenda D. Batuto (The Freeman) | Updated May 16, 2013


CEBU, Philippines - Even if first district Rep. Eduardo Gullas lost in the mayoralty race, his grandson, Samsam Gullas, the new congressman representing the first district, will still extend help to Talisay City.

According to Samsam what happened was the decision of the people and considers it a “blessing in disguise” because he will have the most experienced chief of staff who can focus on mentoring him.

Rep. Gullas who ran as city mayor in Talisay City lost to Johnny Delos Reyes in the last election.

He also said his grandfather can focus on managing the University of the Visayas (UV).

Aside from it, the young congressman said he will continue all the projects of the first district that were started by his grandfather.

These projects include the improvement of education, infrastructure, especially road widening, electrification in  the sitios, and water supply.  (FREEMAN)

Philippine Senator Joker Arroyo (his real given name) has a brother named Jack.

Agoi, naa ba kaha siyay brother named Queen...

Gorya. Di ba German ang imong Bananenrepublik? 

Midawat sa kapildehan

Gipahalipayan sab ni Gullas ang iyang kaatbang pagka mayor nga si delos Reyes nga maoy nidaog sa eleksyon.

“In my long political career, I won in all elections except this last one. Forever I shall remember and be grateful to the electorate of the province as well as of the 1st District. Against the advice of my lawyers and loyal supporters, I humbly concede to my worthy opponent. May God bless us all, particularly the good people of Talisay (City).”

Samtang si Bucao ni­angkon na sab sa iyang kapildihan ug nanghi­naot nga tumanon sa mga nakadaog sa eleksyon ang ilang mga gisaad sa katawhan atol sa kam­panya.

Matod ni Bucao nga sa matag eleksyon, duna gyuy modaog ug mapilde.

Samtang si delos Re­yes nagkanayon nga sa iya unyang paglingkod, hatagan niya og atensyon ang panginahanglan sa katawhan nga mao ang paghatag og trabaho sa katawhan.

“Humana ang elek­syon, kalimtan na nato ang tanan ug magtinabangay.Ako nilangsad dili aron tawgon ko og mayor, apan aron pagserbisyo sa katawhan,” matod ni delos Reyes.

Samtang si Vice Mayor-elect Romeo Villarante nibutyag sa mga tigbalita nga tukoron nila ang transition committee sa ila unya nga paglingkod.

Giproklamar na kagahapon sa alas 3 sa hapon ang mananaog nga mga kandidato gikan sa pagka mayor, bise ug mga konsehal.

Ang mga konsehal mao sila si Danny Caballero, Val Ylanan, Choy Aznar, Socrates Fernandez, Edward Alesna, Dennis Basillote, Jojo Bacaltos, Aldin Diaz, Dory Emit ug Eduardo Gullas III.

Katapusan

Samtang ang legal counsel sa United Nationalist Alliance (UNA) nga si Jeneses Ponce nagtuo nga di angay kahibulngan ang kadaugan ni Rama kay usa kini ka maayo nga lider.

“We have ended the era of the Osmeñas. We ended the one-man rule,” pasigarbo usab ni Ponce.

Dako ang ilang pagtuo na gipili sa katawhan si Rama tungod kay gusto sila og kausaban sa pagapadagan sa gobyerno dinhi sa siyudad sa Sugbo.

Daghan ang nagtuo nga kagahapon ipahigayon ang pagproklamar kang Raul del Mar isip kongresista sa norte distrito ug kang Rodrigo “Bebot” Abellanosa sa south district
apan wa ningtungha sa proklamasyon ang duha ka mga kandidato sa BOPK.

Sa pagsuwat ning ba­lita, wa pa masuta kon kinsa ang molingkod sa pwesto isip bise mayor sa Sugbo tungod sa delayed transmission kay naguba ang tulo ka mga safe card nga nag-gikan sa Bryg. Busay, Cambinocot ug Barrio Luz.

Ang Commission on Elections (Comelec) nakadesisyon nga karong adlawa iproklamar ang mga ningdaug isip bise mayor, mga kongresista ug mga konsehal sa siyudad sa Sugbo.

Samtang sa dakbayan sa Talisay, niangkon na sa ilang kapildehan sila si Gullas ug Bise Mayor Alan Bucao sa grupong Alayon.

Si Gullas nagkanayon nga sa dugayng panahon nga iyang naserbisyuhan ang katawhan sa Sugbo ug sa unang distrito, siya mapasalamaton kanunay.

Giproklamar

Giproklamar na si Ra­ma isip mayor sa dakba­yan sa Sugbo kagahapon sa City Hall human siya nakaangkon og 217,448 ka mga botos batok sa iyang kaatbang nga si Osmeña nga dunay 211, 072 ka mga botos.

Gi-angkon ni Rama na dakong responsibilidad ang pagkapili pag-usab isip amahan sa siyudad ug nipasalig siya nga iyang hatagan og igong pagtagad ang kauswagan sa Sugbo.

Sa pakighinabi sa Sun.Star Superbalita, ang campasign manager sa Team Rama nga si Cebu City Councilor Jose “Joey” Daluz III nisulti siya na way espesyal nga estratehiya nga ilang gibuhat sa ilang pagpa­ngampanya.

Gipadangat nila ang ilang mga tumong pinaagi sa ilang gipahigayon nga mga pulong-pulong o miting de avance.

Andam ang Team Rama nga makig-alayon sa ilang mga kaatbang sa Bando Osmeña Pundok Kauswagan (BOPK) aron sa pagsulbad sa mga isyu sa pulitika tungod kay usa ra ang ilang tumong nga mao ang pagserbisyo sa mga Sugbuanon.

SULOD sa kapin duha ka mga dekada ilang giharian ang natad sa pulitika sa Sugbo.

Apan sama sa ginaingon nga “ang tanan dunay kinutoban,” niabot ra ang panahon nga giparot sila si Kong. Tomas Osmeña sa Cebu City south district ug si Kong. Eduardo Gullas sa 1st distrist sa lalawigan sa Sugbo mga.

Si Osmeña giparot ni Mayor Michael Rama, kinsa giproklamar na ka­­gahapon nga mananaog sa eleksyon niadtong Lunes sa pagkamayor sa dakbayan sa Sugbo samtang si Gullas niangkon na sa iyang kapildehan batok ni Johnny V. de los Reyes sa pagkamayor sa dakbayan sa Talisay.

Ikaunom na kining higayon sa pagdagan ni JVR sa Talisay ug way nagdahom nga iyang maparot si Gullas, kinsa imahen na sa pulitika sa unang distrito sa Sugbo, labina sa dakbayan sa Talisay.

Si Osmeña, sa iyang bahin wa pa makatilaw og pilde sukad sa iyang pagsulod sa pulitika niadtong 1987, diin sa unang higayon nidagan siya sa pagkamayor ug nidaug.

Sa dihang naabli na ang urna, gikuha ang tulo ka kwentas nga gisul-ob sa liog ug laing unom ka mga bracelets nga nakakaw-it sa mga kamot sa imahen.

Daling gipahibawo ni Blanco si Father Niko Perez ug gitawagan dayon ang kapolisan.

Dugang nasayran sa kapolisan nga daghan ang nanimba sa wa pa madiskubrehe ang pagpangawat.

Gidudahan nga ang k******n nagpakaaron-ingnon nga manimbahay sa wa pa gilungkab ang luyo nga bahin sa urna.

“Posibling dunay mga tawo nga nakakita sa pagkuha, nagtuo siguro nga taga simbahan ra mao tong wa lang sitaha,” matd ni Labating.

Si Cebu city Police Director Mariano Natuel mimando og makuting imbestigasyon sa hitabo ug ipaubos sa imbestigasyon ang mga security guard sa simbahan.

Ang pagpangawat sa simbahan sa Redemtorist maoy ikaduha nga nahitabo dinhi sa dakbayan sa Sugbo.

Gituohang dunay mga manimbahay nga nakakita sa pagkuha apan way nagpakabana sa pagtuo nga taga simbahan ang nihimo.

Nadiskobrehan ang pagpangawat sa guwardiya sa simbahan pasado alas 6 sa milabay nga

Ang nawala mao ang unom ka mga bracelet ug tulo ka mga gold necklace nga gibana-bana nga mokantidad og kapin kun kuwang P300,000.

Sa pasiuna nga imbestigasyon ni PO2 Reynaldo Labating sa Theft and Robbery Section sa Cebu City Police Office (CCPO) nagbutyag nga adunay misa sa simbahan sa wa pa madiskubrehe ang pagpangawat.

Matod pa ni Fresco Blanco, security guard nga nag-duty niadtong higayona, nga human sa misa mipahigayon siya og roving sulod sa simbahan.

Didto na niya nadiskitahan ang luyo nga bahin sa urna ni Senor Santo Nino nga abli na ang pultahan.

A perfect number is one that is exactly equal to the sum of its proper divisors (again, excluding itself). The first perfect number is 6, as its divisors (1, 2, 3) all up to 6. Six is followed by 28, 496, and 8,128. Early Greek mathematicians knew only of these first 4 perfect numbers; Nichomatus discovered 8,128 by the year A.D. 100. Three more were discovered, the first circa 1456 (33,550,336) by an unknown mathematician, and in 1588 (8,589,869,056 and 137,438,691,328) by Italian mathematician Pietro Cataldi in 1588. -- http://listverse.com/

Julius also recruited many people sympathetic to the cause to assist the KGB. He provided the KGB with thousands of documents from the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics including a complete set of design and production drawings for the Lockheed’s P-80 Shooting Star. A former machinist at Los Alamos (the US Nuclear Development Area), Sergeant David Greenglass confessed to having passed secret information on to the USSR, and in doing so, implicated his brother-in-law: Julius Rosenberg. He initially denied any involvement by his sister Ethel. The Rosenbergs were arrested.

In 1951 the case against the Rosenbergs began. Greenglass, the prosecution’s main witness, told the court that his sister Ethel had typed nuclear secrets he gave her at a meeting in their home, and that he gave Julius a sketch of a cross-section of an implosion type nuclear bomb. Both Rosenbergs were found guilty and sentenced to death. Their conviction gave fuel to Senator McCarthy’s investigations into anti-American activities. They were both executed by electric-chair in Sing Sing Prison in 1953.

Julius and Ethel Rosenberg spied for the Soviet Union





Julius and Ethel Rosenberg were American Communists who were executed for passing nuclear secrets to the Soviet Union. They met in the Young Communist League in 1936, where he was a leader. They had two sons. Julius was recruited by the KGB in 1942 and was regarded as one of their top spies. He passed classified reports from Emerson Radio, including a fuze design which was later used to shoot down a U-2 in 1960.

6. The semicolon

I sometimes say that when you feel like using a semicolon, lay lie down till the urge goes away. But if you just can't resist, remember that there are really only two proper uses for this piece of punctuation. One is to separate two complete clauses (a construction with a subject and verb that could stand on its own as a sentence). I knocked on the door; no one answered. The second is to separate list items that themselves contain punctuation. Thus, The band played Boise, Idaho; Schenectady, New York; and Columbus, Ohio.

Do not use a semicolon in place of a colon, for example, There is only one piece of punctuation that gives Yagoda nightmares; the semicolon.

According to Comelec Resolution 9518, “The substitute for a candidate who died… may file his Certificate of Candidacy up to mid-day of election day, provided that the substitute and the substituted have the same surnames.” With his wife to substitute for him if he gained the seat, Pernes won by a large margin, garnering 26,642 votes compared to Orlando Fua Jr., his opponent, who took 22,845 votes, according to GMA’s Eleksyon 2013 partial unofficial vote tally representing 92.5 percent of total votes.

(Updated 9:19 p.m.) On the island known for sorcery, the dead can win elections. Dr. Jose Jay “Jojo” Samson Pernes, 49, hoped to break the political dynasty of the Fua family by running for the congressional seat in the province’s lone district.

But a day before the May 13 polls, he died. According to Pernes’ nephew, Kim Quilicot, the candidate succumbed to heart failure triggered by high blood pressure at their home in Siquijor around 3 p.m. last Sunday. He was subsequently brought to the hospital where attempts were made to resuscitate him, but to no avail. Word quickly spread that the popular physician backed by the Liberal Party had died on the eve of the election.

Remember these five simple rules to be happy:


1. Free your heart from hatred.

2. Free your mind from worries.

3. Live simply.

4. Give more.

5. Expect less.

At first, the donkey realized what was happening and cried horribly. Then,to everyone’s amazement, he quieted down. A few shovel loads later, the farmer finally looked down the well, and was astonished at what he saw. With every shovel of dirt that hit his back, the donkey was doing something amazing. He would shake it off and take a step up.

As the farmer’s neighbors continued to shovel dirt on top of the animal, he would shake it off and take a step up. Pretty soon, everyone was amazed as the donkey stepped up over the edge of the well and trotted off!

Life is going to shovel dirt on you, all kinds of dirt. The trick to getting out of the well is to shake it off and take a step up. Each of our troubles is a stepping stone. We can get out of the deepest wells just by not stopping, never giving up! Shake it off and take a step up!

One day a farmer’s donkey fell down into a well.





The animal cried piteously for hours as the farmer tried to figure out what to do. Finally he decided the animal was old, and the well needed to be covered up anyway; it just wasn’t worth it to retrieve the donkey. He invited all his neighbors to come over and help him. they all grabbed a shovel and began to shovel dirt into the well.
