Real Estate 101

Transfer of Title: From mother Title to individual Subdivided Lot

The duration of the Transfer Process depends on the Nature and Origin of the Title.

In most cases, the "Mother" title or the title that covers the entire property is usually under the name of the deceased parents or relatives of the Seller. This scenario takes the longest time to process. To wit:

1. Execution of the EXTRAJUDICIAL SETTLEMENT OF ESTATE either for Partition or Sale. The execution may take time because it requires the presence of all the heirs who have shares or interest of the property.

2. Next would be the Publication of the ExtraJudicial Settlement of Estate and the Processing and Payment of the Estate Tax.

3. Simultaneously, if the heirs agreed to a certain partition , they must Hire a competent Geodetic Engr., to survey and plot the Subdivision plan based on the agreed partition. Then, it will be submitted to DENR for approval. (This will usually take 3-12 months depending on the DENR.)

4. Upon completing the Publication Requirements, the heirs can now proceed with the BIR to settle the estate tax and wait for eCar to be released. (Usually 3-6 weeks)

5. Once the eCar is released, you may now proceed to the Registry of Deeds to update the Title. From the Old Title named after the deceased parents to the HEIRS.

6. Once the DENR will release the approval of the Partition/Subdivision plan, the heirs may now proceed to the Registry of Deeds (ROD) to apply for the Splitting of Title. This may take up to 6 weeks.

7. After the Titles are individualized and released, the heirs may now proceed to the Assesors for assessment, inspection and issuance of individual Tax Declaration.

8. Note: properties under estate taxes and subdivided among heirs will be annotated with encumbrances for its Liabilities under Sec. 4 Rule 74 for 2 years. This is a protection to all the heirs or creditors that are not aware or not uncluded in partition.

9. If you buy a portion of this property, you may now start the Transfer Process which may include the ff:

9A. Execution of the final Deed of Sale with Title no. And description of the actual portion.

9B. Payment of Capital Gains Tax, Documentary Stamp Tax and other transfer Fees.

9C. After settling the BIR transfer Tax, you may now obtain your eCAR from from the BIR. (3-8 weeks)

9D. Once the eCAR is available, you may now proceed to the ROD for the transfer of title. (3-8 weeks)

9E. After the Release of the Title, you have to proceed to the Assessors office for inspection, assessment and issuance of new Tax Declaration.

The entire processing usually take 18-36 months depending on fast you can comply with all the requirements.

Jejeje is a variation of hehehe, a sound of laughter, that is often used in texting in the Philippines. It is also associated with a group of people called Jejemons, who have their own style of writing and dressing. Jejeje is derived from the Spanish word jeje, which means hehe. Jejeje can also be used as an expression of happiness or excitement¹²³.

Some possible ways to continue the conversation are:

Workplace & Productivity / Life at Sea Photo Contest
September 29, 2023, 05:27:38 AM
1st prize winner in our #LifeAtSea2023 photography competition went to John Robert Macinas Maraño for his photo '12 Degrees'
Paddy Rodgers, Director (Chief Executive) of Royal Museums Greenwich and one of the judges said about this photograph "We think of the floor as solid, but seafarers will tell you that aboard a ship the floor is very movable. The pendulum in the background of the image shows the swing of the ship, that it's not a trick, that the photographer is doing something quite clever with the angle of the camera."
Congratulations!

Science and Research / Highest Rank in Air Force
September 28, 2023, 05:12:30 PM
According to the web search results, the highest rank in the air force depends on the country. For example, in the United States Air Force, the highest rank is General of the Air Force, which is a five-star general officer rank and ranks above a general and is equivalent to General of the Army in the United States Army and Fleet Admiral in the United States Navy. However, this rank has only been held by one person, Henry H. Arnold, who was appointed in 1944 and retired in 1946. The current highest rank achievable in the U.S. Air Force is general, which is a four-star general officer rank and ranks above lieutenant general.

In the Philippines, where you are located, the highest rank in the air force is General, which is also a four-star general officer rank and is equivalent to Admiral in the Philippine Navy and General in the Philippine Army². The current Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces of the Philippines is General Cirilito Sobejana, who assumed office on February 4, 2021.

Book Reviews / Lessons from The Richest Man in Babylon
September 28, 2023, 05:02:31 PM
The Richest Man in Babylon is a 1926 book by George S. Clason that dispenses financial advice through a collection of parables set 4,097 years ago in ancient Babylon. The book remains in print almost a century after the parables were originally published, and is regarded as a classic of personal financial advice.

The parables are told by a fictional Babylonian character called Arkad, a poor scribe who became the "richest man in Babylon". Included in Arkad's advice are the "Seven Cures" (or how to generate money and wealth), and the "Five Laws of Gold" (or how to protect and invest wealth). A core part of Arkad's advice is around "paying yourself first", "living within your means", "investing in what you know", the importance of "long-term saving", and "home ownership".

The seven cures are:
    1. Start thy purse to fattening. Save money. Put aside 10% of your income every month.
    2. Control thy expenditures. Don't spend more than you earn.
    3. Make thy gold multiply. Invest your money wisely.
    4. Guard thy treasures from loss. Protect your money from risk.
    5. Make of thy dwelling a profitable investment. Own your home.
    6. Insure thy life. Protect your family from financial hardship.
    7. Increase thy earning power. Learn new skills and increase your earning potential.

The five laws of gold are:

    1. Avoid debt. Debt is a financial trap.
    2. Invest for the long term. Don't try to get rich quick.
    3. Diversify your investments. Don't put all your eggs in one basket.
    4. Reinvest your earnings. Let your money make more money.
    5. Pay yourself first. Put aside money for your future before you spend anything else.

The Richest Man in Babylon is a timeless classic that offers practical advice on how to build wealth and achieve financial security. The parables are easy to understand and the advice is sound. If you're looking for a way to improve your financial situation, I highly recommend reading The Richest Man in Babylon.

Here are some of the key lessons from the book:

    • Start saving early. The earlier you start saving, the more time your money has to grow.
    • Live within your means. Don't spend more money than you earn.
    • Invest wisely. Do your research and invest in assets that have the potential to grow over time.
    • Protect your assets. Insure your home and belongings, and have a plan in place in case of an emergency.
    • Increase your earning power. Learn new skills and take on new challenges to increase your income.

The Richest Man in Babylon is a valuable resource for anyone who wants to improve their financial situation. The lessons in the book are timeless and can help you achieve financial security and success.

Learn English Online / Sample Opening Remarks for Meeting
September 28, 2023, 03:53:23 PM
Good morning, everyone. I am [your name], the Comelec regional director for Central Visayas. I would like to welcome you all to this meeting for the 2023 barangay and SK elections.

The barangay and SK elections are very important for our democracy, as they are the closest to the people and the grassroots. They are also an opportunity for the youth to participate in governance and leadership.

However, these elections also pose many challenges, especially in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic and the recent natural disasters that have affected our region. We need to ensure that the elections are conducted in a safe, orderly, and credible manner, while protecting the health and welfare of the voters, candidates, and election workers.

That is why we have invited you, our partners from various government agencies, to this meeting. We want to discuss with you the preparations, protocols, and contingency plans for the upcoming elections. We also want to hear your suggestions and feedback on how we can improve our coordination and cooperation.

We hope that this meeting will be productive and fruitful, and that we will be able to work together as a team for the successful conduct of the 2023 barangay and SK elections. Thank you for your time and attention.

If you lack discipline, read this POST.

1. Define a clear goal.
Without a clear goal it is hard to define exactly what you want. Your mind doesn't need an invitation to procrastinate. Begin to visualise what it is you really want. Writing down your goal will help to bring it into reality.

2. Establish a clear plan.
You may know what it is you want but if you don't know how to achieve it, the chances are, you will fail.  Outline a plan that breaks down each individual step you will need to attain your goal. Small steps lead to big changes.

3. Strengthen your self confidence.
One thing the successful in society all have in common is self confidence. You need to develop the mindset that you are good enough to achieve what you set out to, otherwise why even try ? You can do this.

4. Build habits.
Habits make life 10x easier. The more you have to think about what you're doing the greater chance that your mind will start to wonder. Systems and habits remove the guessing and give you a clear step by step process to follow.

5. Evaluate your time.
You often hear people say "I don't have time" when in reality they go to work then spend the rest of their night mindlessly scrolling. Plan out your day, there is enough time to enjoy yourself while also getting the important tasks done.

6. Start small.
Often when you lack discipline, it is down to thinking that you have to do it all at once.  Learn to break down tasks into manageable pieces. You'll find that you get more done and be pleasantly surprised at how much more enjoyable it is.

7. Look after yourself
Strong mental and physical health will aid in your battle to destroy a lack of self discipline. Develop a positive self talk process as well as making sure you eat well and exercise on a regular basis. Movement will help clear your mind.

8. Hold yourself accountable.
You can always ask friends or family to hold you accountable but what happens when they are not there ? Developing self accountability puts you together.

Philippine History / Why does Masons wear an Apron?
September 03, 2023, 07:12:07 AM
By FB post
Why does Masons wear an Apron?

Dr Jose Rizal - a National Hero in the Philippines, who brought the Rights of Life, Liberty, and Pursuit of Happiness - a Freemason is shown below wearing an Apron.

All Masons wear an Apron.

Along, long time ago, the Masons that build the King Solomon  Temple wore an apron when they were cutting stones in the quarry and during the building of King Solomon Temple in Jeruzalem, in order not to dirty their clothes.

Today, some workers copied this Good Practice and also during food preparation in the kitchen.

Inside the Lodges today, Masons wear an Apron as a Symbol of being a "Builder of a strong and true men of character and of nations!

Look back at the history, these are the countries that were liberated by the Freemasons:
- America
- France
- the Philippines
- all Latin Countries
- all Westernized Nations that practices the Rights of Life, Liberty and Pursuit of Happiness

I was made a Mason in my heart, we are the oldest Fraternity in the whole World.
There more than 3-million of  us in the whole wide world.

We are not:
- a religion
- a salvation group
- a secret society
- a world ruler
- a devil worshipper, cross stamper, usurer and other.

We are:
- a free born - no boundaries!
-a liberator for those that are enslaved.
- a strong giver in charity
- a helper to a Brother and Neighbor in need.

The basic Rights of Life, Liberty and Pursuit of Happiness is our guiding principles that were copied by all Westernized and liberated Countries.

The Apron represents that we are builders of men and country!

How To Tips / Arabic Pita Bread
September 02, 2023, 03:23:48 PM
Pita bread (Arabic bread)
Ingredients
For approximately 8 pita breads:
• 500 g of wheat flour (you can use whole wheat flour if you prefer)
• 7 g active dry yeast (about 2 ¼ teaspoons)
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon of sugar
• 300 ml of warm water
• 2 tablespoons of olive oil

Before making pita bread, make sure you have wheat flour, yeast, warm water and salt on hand.  Ready to bake delicious pitas!

Preparation

1. In a small bowl, mix the active dry yeast with the sugar and 100 ml of warm water.  Let sit for about 5-10 minutes, or until the mixture becomes foamy.
2. In a large bowl, combine flour and salt.  Make a hole in the center and pour in the activated yeast mixture and olive oil.
3. Begin mixing the ingredients with a wooden spoon or your hand until a dough forms.
4. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic.
5. Form the dough into a ball and place it in a lightly oiled bowl.  Cover the bowl with a clean, damp cloth, and let the dough rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
6. Preheat the oven to 230°C (450°F).
7. Once the dough has doubled in size, divide it into 8 equal parts and shape each part into a ball.
8. Roll out each ball into a circle about 15cm in diameter and 0.5cm thick.
9. Place the dough circles on a lightly floured baking sheet or parchment paper.
10. Bake the pita breads for about 5-7 minutes, or until puffed and golden.
11. Once baked, remove the pita panels from the oven and let them cool on a rack.
12. Once they are completely cooled, you can cut them in half with a sharp knife to open the pocket.

Ready!  Now you have homemade pita bread to enjoy with your favorite toppings, like hummus, falafel, vegetables, and more.  Enjoy!

Anonymous Diary Blog / From Appreciation to Resentment
August 30, 2023, 01:28:23 PM
By Nyce Ayuk FB
I don't know who needs to hear this , but hey, if they don't ask for help don't open yourself up for trouble, future resentment and hatred...

Now see these 6 reasons why I made the above statement

1. The first time you give somebody something for free you are creating appreciation

2. The second time you give somebody something for free you are create anticipation

3. The third time you are creating Expectations and that's incoming trouble

4. By the fourth time you give somebody something for free, you are creating entitlement

5. And by the fifth time, you give somebody something for free, you have created dependency

6. And if by the sixth time you don't give it to them again, you create resentment and hatred...

This is not to discourage you from giving... this is me saying , you should
Know your limit... cos takers have no limits

Btw,  it's like this, if you let people treat you any kinda way , over time it will become a culture ...

How To Tips / Uses of Coffee Filters
January 10, 2023, 05:52:36 AM
DID YOU KNOW THIS?
Coffee filters .... Who knew! And you can buy 1,000 at the Dollar Tree for almost nothing even the large ones.
1. Cover bowls or dishes when cooking in the microwave. Coffee filters make excellent covers.
2. Clean windows, mirrors, and chrome... Coffee filters are lint-free so they'll leave windows sparkling.
3. Protect China by separating your good dishes with a coffee filter between each dish.
4. Filter broken cork from wine. If you break the cork when opening a wine bottle, filter the wine through a coffee filter.
5. Protect a cast-iron skillet. Place a coffee filter in the skillet to absorb moisture and prevent rust.
6. Apply shoe polish. Ball up a lint-free coffee filter.
7. Recycle frying oil. After frying, strain oil through a sieve lined with a coffee filter.
8. Weigh chopped foods. Place chopped ingredients in a coffee filter on a kitchen scale.
9. Hold tacos. Coffee filters make convenient wrappers for messy foods.
10. Stop the soil from leaking out of a plant pot. Line a plant pot with a coffee filter to prevent the soil from going through the drainage holes.
11.. Prevent a Popsicle from dripping. Poke one or two holes as needed in a coffee filter.
12. Do you think we used expensive strips to wax eyebrows? Use strips of coffee filters..
13. Put a few in a plate and put your fried bacon, French fries, chicken fingers, etc on them. It soaks out all the grease.
14. Keep in the bathroom. They make great "razor nick fixers."
15. As a sewing backing. Use a filter as an easy-to-tear backing for embroidering or appliquéing soft fabrics.
16. Put baking soda into a coffee filter and insert into shoes or a closet to absorb or prevent odors.
17. Use them to strain soup stock and to tie fresh herbs in to put in soups and stews.
18. Use a coffee filter to prevent spilling when you add fluids to your car.
19. Use them as a spoon rest while cooking and clean up small counter spills.
20. Can use to hold dry ingredients when baking or when cutting a piece of fruit or veggies.. Saves on having extra bowls to wash.
21. Use them to wrap Christmas ornaments for storage.
22. Use them to remove fingernail polish when out of cotton balls.

The Chinese Embassy in Manila accused the US of tearing apart the Philippines and China's relations.

"The statement on the South China Sea by the spokesperson of the US Department of State on December 19th contains unfounded accusations against China that attempt to stir up troubles and drive a wedge between China and the Philippines. We strongly deplore and firmly oppose this," Chinese Embassy Manila's statement read.

'When I was a boxer in the 1970's, I was hit in the face by Joe Frazier, knocked out by Muhammad Ali, and knocked down a couple of times by Ron Lyle before I got up and won. All of the fights had one thing in common: When they were over, I could hardly remember the pain. I forgot my weak knees, the cuts, the blood in my eyes. If not for the films of my fights, I would have put them totally out of my mind. It's the same when you hit rough times: Don't let the pain and disappointment lodge inside.'

Inspiration & Hope / Our Father in Heaven Knows
December 18, 2022, 11:01:08 PM
Oh, Christian, do you doubt as to whether God will fulfill His promise? Will the munitions of rock be carried by storm? Will the storehouses of heaven fail? Do you think that your heavenly Father, though He knows that you have need of food and clothing, will yet forget you? When not a sparrow falls to the ground without your Father knowing, and the very hairs of your head are all numbered (Matt. 10:29–30), will you mistrust and doubt Him? Full many there are who have been tried until at last they have been driven to exercise faith in God, and the moment of their faith has been the instant of their deliverance.

One Voice for the World, and Another for Christ

I used to tell a story of a brother I once knew who, at the prayer meeting, was accustomed to pray in such a way that I was always sorry when he got up, for nobody could hear him. I always thought that he had a very feeble voice. I had indistinctly heard the brother mutter something to God, and I felt that we had better not ask him again, for his voice was so thin.

But I stepped into his shop one day. He did not know that I was there, and I heard him call, "John, bring that half hundredweight." "Oh," I thought, "there is a very different tone in the business from what there is in the prayer meeting."

It is symbolic of a great many people. They have one voice for the world, and another voice for Christ. What weight they throw into the ordinary engagements, and what little force and weight there is when they come to the things of God! I am afraid it has to do with a great many of us, and I put it in this way—if for the poor things of this world we have often manifested so much vigor, what ought to be expected of us—of us who are under such obligations to divine grace—in the service of such a Master in reference to eternal things?

To actualize the learnings on accreditation standards, the tourism officers went on a benchmarking trip to check examples of DOT-accredited 4-star, 3-star, and Mabuhay accommodations in Tagaytay City.

Reviewing the dimensions of accreditation, the group externalized the customer journey by visiting the hotel exterior, arrival/departure areas, the restaurant outlets, rooms, conference/meeting areas, and other amenities and facilities, underlining the importance of ensuring quality in all aspects of the operations.

The activity hopes to provide a holistic understanding of accreditation standards that can be applied once the tourism officers return to their respective provinces.

Our heartfelt gratitude to our DOT-Accredited accommodation partners: Hotel Casiana, @Royal Parc Hotel & Resorts, and Asian Village, for your warmest welcome and for sharing your best practices.

UC Law celebrates 20 years of excellence and service

The UC School of Law culminated its year-long 20th founding anniversary celebration with the Grand Alumni Homecoming and Recognition of Faculty last December 10, 2022 at Seda Hotel, Cebu City.

With the theme, "UC Law at 20: Building a Legacy of Excellence and Service," the event was organized by the UC Law Alumni Association (UCLAA), in coordination with the Office of the Dean, and attended by more than a hundred alumni from different batches.

Also present during the celebration were UC Chairperson Atty. Augusto W. Go, Executive Vice Chancellor Atty. Manuel Elijah Sarausad, Director of Finance and Legal Atty. Ria Lidia Espina, UC Law Dean Al-Shwaid Ismael and Dean Emeritus Baldomero C. Estenzo, UCLAA President Atty. Jay Pujanes, the members of the Law Faculty and Staff, and officers of the UC Law Students Society.

The Honorable Chief Justice Alexander G. Gesmundo of the Philippine Supreme Court, through a written message, congratulated UC Law on its 20th anniversary. He also mentioned "the law school's important role in the country's first-ever regionalized and digitalized Bar Examinations— as yet another example of the impact that UC Law has had not just on the communities around it, but on the legal profession and indeed our entire nation."

During the event, professors who have taught at UC Law for at least 5 years were each recognized and given a plaque and token. The UCLAA also elected its new set of officers.

To date, UC Law has produced 17 batches, over 400 graduates, and 6 Bar exams placers, and won several local and international competitions.

At UC Law, our vision is to become the leading institution for quality legal education, ethical excellence, global competence, and social responsiveness. We aim to achieve our vision, one initiative at a time.

Bible Study / Yoga is for demons
December 17, 2022, 05:30:32 AM
"Yoga is a Hindu spiritual practice, and the word 'yoga' is rooted in Sanskrit. It means 'to yoke to' or 'to unite with,' and what they're doing," she said. "They have deliberate postures that are paying tribute, honor, and worship to their false gods, and they have over 330,000,000 false gods, which are demons, and they're honoring them with these postures."

Inspiration & Hope / Wait on the Lord
December 16, 2022, 12:12:28 PM
By Anonymous.
We might have encountered a lot of times the advice to "wait on the Lord" when we are in the middle of an unbearable circumstance or when we are on the waiting season. Maybe most of us have thought of choosing the easier route- taking matters in our own hands or giving up, especially if we do not want the longing or the pain that waiting entails.

As we face this ordeal, may we never forget His beautiful promise. As stated in two verses below:

-Wait on the LORD; Be of good courage, And He shall STRENGTHEN your heart; Wait, I say, on the LORD! (Psalm 27:14 NKJV)

-Be of good courage, And He shall STRENGTHEN your heart, All you who hope in the LORD. (Psalm 31:24 NKJV)

He will STRENGTHEN our hearts for us to endure! If it is just us, it will be so much tiring given our capacity as humans. But the hard work is not on us, but on God alone!

What does He require us to do then?

To be of good courage.

"So we are always of good courage. We know that while we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord, for we walk by faith, not by sight." (2 Corinthians 5:6–7)

When our eyes are set on Him, on the victorious ending of our story in Christ, it will give us much more courage to step forward. And this courage is only possible when it is fueled by faith.

Wondering where to get that extra faith or the new faith you badly needed?
 
"Faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ." (Romans 10:17)

All that we will be needing has already been provided by the Lord. May we carry in our hearts this truth that we have a perfect God with a perfectly laid out plan through His perfect wisdom and love.

My prayer for today, is that may you continue to put your hope in the One who will never disappoint and may have the courage to wait and see the truth of His promise, that He, has made everything beautiful in its time (Ecc 3:11).

Shalom.
-
The LORD is good to those who wait for Him, To the soul who seeks Him.
Lamentations 3:25

History / Ancient Greek Temple
December 16, 2022, 11:26:45 AM
The Erechtheion (or Erechtheum) is an ancient Greek temple constructed on the acropolis of Athens between 421 and 406 BCE in the Golden Age of the city in order to house the ancient wooden cult statue of Athena and generally glorify the great city at the height of its power and influence. The Erechtheion has suffered a troubled history of misuse and neglect, but with its prominent position above the city and porch of six Caryatids, it remains one of the most distinctive buildings from antiquity .

Inspiration & Hope / Ligonier Ministries Outreach
December 16, 2022, 10:58:50 AM
You and I share a need of incomparable importance with people around the world. Everyone everywhere needs to know who God is.

This universal necessity drove Dr. R.C. Sproul to establish the teaching fellowship of Ligonier Ministries. It's the impetus behind our mission to proclaim the holiness of God to as many people as possible. And this need drives an ambitious aim to serve the global church with timeless biblical teaching that exalts the character of our Creator and brings clarity to Christians in challenging times.

We give thanks to God that by the end of 2022, ministry friends such as you will have helped reach 70 million people with discipleship resources from Ligonier. The tremendous outreach expansion empowered by this generous support includes the launch of dedicated Ligonier websites in three new languages (Korean, Japanese, and German), the release of the Portuguese edition of the Reformation Study Bible, millions of words of trustworthy teaching translated, and more than 10,000 minutes of dubbed video teaching released.

By God's grace, this outreach is changing lives, representing the stories of individuals, families, and churches who are growing in their knowledge of God and His Word through Ligonier's theological teaching. I wanted to share a few of these recent stories with you. These are the people you help through your generous financial support.

"I can watch every message over and over again, and I don't get tired. These Ligonier teaching series in Farsi have changed my understanding of the gospel. I believe every Iranian Christian should watch these messages." —KASRA, IRAN

"The Reformation Study Bible in Spanish will hugely impact Latin America. We need to teach the doctrines of grace and Reformed theology as the church continues to grow in Latin America. This Bible will serve the church for generations to come. Thank you, Ligonier Ministries, for being an instrument of God to spread sound and biblical resources in the Dominican Republic." —ARIS, DOMINICAN REPUBLIC

"Through Ligonier's teaching, I have been equipped to articulate what we believe as Reformed Christians, why we believe it, and how to share the gospel with other people. The knowledge obtained has assisted me in witnessing to my friends and to my own family." —MACDONALD, MALAWI

"Whenever I study to preach God's Word, the Portuguese Reformation Study Bible has been enriching for me. It has everything I need. I am grateful, because it has guided me in rightly understanding the Word of God and aligns me theologically to understand certain doctrines and teachings that the Word brings." —PASTOR FROM MOZAMBIQUE

"The discipleship resources that Ligonier offers are fundamental references in my ministry. Ligonier's video teaching series in Arabic are translated, dubbed, and available as written scripts, which is wonderful. I hope you will continue providing these resources; we are in desperate need of your ministry." —MICHAEL, EGYPT

An awakening to the holiness of God is stirring among the nations. Yet the global need for trustworthy teaching is greater than ever. Billions of souls remain unreached. If we can count on the generous support of friends like you, Ligonier will be positioned to build the largest library of discipleship resources that are true to the Christian faith, with sustained ministry in the top twenty languages within the next few years. Will you consider a year-end gift to help hasten this trajectory to make biblical, Reformed teaching available to 80 percent of the world's population in their heart language?

Thank you for sharing a bold vision of global gospel outreach, all to the glory of God alone.

Onward in Christ,

Chris Larson
President & CEO
Ligonier Ministries

Technology / Why Load Balancing?
December 15, 2022, 03:03:52 AM
Why Load Balancing?
Imagine a checkout line at a grocery store with 8 checkout lines, only one of which is open. All customers must get into the same line, and therefore it takes a long time for a customer to finish paying for their groceries.

Now imagine that the store instead opens all 8 checkout lines. In this case, the wait time for customers is about 8 times shorter.

Load balancing essentially accomplishes the same thing. By dividing user requests among multiple servers, user wait time is vastly cut down. This results in a better user experience — the grocery store customers in the example above would probably look for a more efficient grocery store if they always experienced long wait times.

Facts and Trivia / Advice from Robert Kiyosaki
November 27, 2022, 08:02:50 PM
A MULTI BILLIONAIRE SAYS :
If someone invites you to start a business, join the business, even... if you don't know how to do it yet. Be patient and learn the process, gradually and relentlessly. Remain there even if it takes you five years to be successful in it, because... when the benefits begin to flow, you will NEVER be the same person ever again!
People don't have the patience to build a business for 3 years. But... they have the patience to go to work for 40 years!
It's crazy how some people feel that 3-5 years in a business is a long time to get rich. However don't feel that 40 years at a job is a long time to stay broke!

By Ben Moses Ebreo
BAYOMBONG, Nueva Vizcaya, Dec. 31 2010 (PIA) -- Police Senior Superintendent Elmer Beltejar, police provincial director here warned policemen and civilian gun owners and enthusiasts not to use their guns to celebrate the coming of the new year.

"Let us use other ways to celebrate new year. Do not fire your guns and be with your family instead," Beltejar, in a public statement here stressed.

He made the statement in line with the PNP directive, ordering cops to refrain from using their own firearms during the celebration of the new year.

Beltejar warned that any policeman and civilian who will be caught in firing their guns will be charged administratively and criminally.

"Cops who will be violating this directive will be charged with grave misconduct punishable by dismissal from the service while civilians will face illegal discharge of firearms and if somebody will be hurt, they will also face criminal charges," Beltejar said.

He however reminded policemen on duty to use their firearms in cases of emergencies and in line with the performance of their duties specially this new year.

"We are ready to help our constituents in cases of emergencies this coming new year. Let us respect each other and be vigilant always in our community," Beltejar added.

Meanwhile, the Bureau of Fire Protection(BFP) in the province is on alert status in preparation for the coming new year's day celebration.

BFP personnel have been doing surprise inspections on firecracker stalls, capturing prohibited pyrotechnics.

Firetrucks were also dispatched near public markets were firecracker stall owners do their usual trade. (PIA NVizcaya)"

Philippine History / Bayani Dr. Jose P. Rizal
November 27, 2022, 07:53:42 PM
"PAGADIAN CITY, Dec. 31 2010 (PIA) -- Si Maj. Gen. Romeo D. Lustestica, Commanding General sa 1st Infantry (TABAK) Division mibalik lantaw sa mga madasigong kalampusan ug mga natampo sa pinakamaayo nga nasudnong bayani sa nasud nga si Dr. Jose P. Rizal.
Sa iyang meensahe, si Lustestica kinsa ikaduha nga higayon nga mamumulong sa death anniversary ni Rizal ning bag-o pa lang sa commemorative program sa city hall complex nagkanayon nga ang mga kalampusan ug natampo ni Rizal nagdasig sa mga Filipino ug mihulma sa kamahinungdanon sa atong national identity pagmugna sa atong nasud.

"Si Rizal bisan asa sa kalibutan nagreprentar sa mga maalamon ug magarbuhon nga Filipino, si Lustestica nagkanayon.

Iyang gidayeg si Rizal isip pinakamaayo nga nasudnong bayani sa nasud ug mao ang gitawag nga most documented Filipino hero kinsa mipahinungod sa iyang kinabuhi ngadto sa mga panahum ug prinsipyo sa kagawasan ug nasyonalismo.

"Si i Rizal ang takus nga daygon tungod sa iyang pagkatinud-anon sa mga prinsipyo, sa iyang pagtuon, standards sa moralidad, actions, batasan, panghuna-huna, damgo,, pagtahud sa balaod, ginikanan, sa ubang mga tawo, ug nasud, ug pag-gamit sa iyang kinabuhi nga produktibo," si Lustestica magatbuhong mipahayag.

Si Rizal ang nagpakita sa iyang kamaayo ug ang iyang pagkamaayo napadayag sa daghang mga pamaagi dili lamang sa iyang kaugalingon nga nasud apan kon dili ubay-ubay nga mga langyaw nga nasud.

Iya usab nga gidayeg ang atong nasudnong bayani sa iyang gawi sa pagkakugihan tungod kay ang mga Filiipino iyang gitudloan sa nasangpit nga gawi.

Sa kabahin sa mga sundalo sa First Infantry (TABAK) Division, ang nasangpit nga heneral nagkanayon nga sila nga mga sundalo nagpakita sa ilang mga paningkamot nga mapadayag ang malig-on nga commitment pagsunod sa halawom nga nasyonalismo ug pagpangga sa nasud ni Rizal.

"Ang kinabuhi sa mga sundalo nagsugod gikan sa panultihon nga ang sakripisyo kabahin sa profession. Dili ang matag-usa makahimo sa pagkalingkawas sa gubat. Kung si bisan kinsa kanato ang makhimo, kini nagsumikad kay ang tanan kanato madasigon nga naghimo sa ilang trabaho," si Lustestica nagkanayon nga nagkutlo sa pamahayag ni Admiral Lord Nelson.

Philippine Travel and Tourism / Ilocos Norte Tourism
November 27, 2022, 07:52:13 PM
by Carlo P. Canares
LAOAG CITY, Dec. 31 2010 (PIA) -- Ang mga higanteng Windmills ng Bangui, ang kauna-unahang wind energy project sa bansa. Ang Cape Bojeador lighthouse sa Burgos na tila nagmamatyag sa picturesque South China Sea. Ang mga naglalakihang coral formations sa Pangil Beach sa bayan ng Currimao. Ang dambuhalang sulfur rock formation ng Kapurpurawan.

Ang magandang bayan ng Adams at iba pang mga bayan sa lalawigan. Ang mga romantikong simbahan ng Sarrat, Badoc, Laoag at iba pa. Ang mga waterfalls, ilog, bundok at world class resorts. At sino ba naman ang hindi nakakaalam ng Saint Augustine Church ng Paoay na isang World Heritage Site at ng mapuputing beaches sa Pagudpud?

Ito ay ilan lamang sa mga pinagmamalaking kagandahan ng lalawigan ng Ilocos Norte. Mayaman kasi ang lalawigan sa man-made at natural resources. Bukod pa nito ay ang yaman sa kultura, tradisyon at warmth ng mga Ilokano. Ito ang mga dahilan kung kaya't ang Ilocos Norte ay isa sa top 10 tourist destinations ng bansa.

Ang turismo ay isang industriya na malaki ang naiaambag sa paglago ng ekonomiya ng bansa at mga lalawigan. Ito nga ay tinatawag na Engine of Growth. Layunin ng administrasyo ni Pangulong Benigno Aquino III na lumago pa ang turismo upang lumago pa lalo ang ekonomiya. Ito din ang isa sa priority projects ni Gobernador Imee Marcos para sa kanyang lalawigan.

Alam ng Gobernadora na sa malakas na turismo ay uunlad ang iba komersiyo, industriya, maghihikayat ng investors sa lalawigan at magdudulot naman ng mas maraming trabaho para sa taong bayan.

Inilalatag na ng masipag na Gobernadora ang blueprints para sa Ilocos Norte tourism master plan kung saan mas higit na pagagandahin ang lalawigan para sa mga local at foreign tourists. Kabilang na dito ay ang pagpapaganda ng Paoay Church plaza upang maging tourism center. Kasama din sa phase 1 ng master plan ay pagpapaganda ng Laoag International Airport kung saan magkakaroon ng mga karangdagang mga serbisyo kagaya ng shopping centers, restaurants at iba pa.

Puspusan na ang pagsusulong ng turismo ni Gobernador Marcos. Mas pinaganda at dinagdagan ng istraktura ang Museo Iloko na makikita sa Laoag City na pinamamahayan ng mga yamang kultura ng mga Ilokano. kamakailan ay binuksan ni Gobernador Marcos ang isang photography at painting exhibit. Ipinakita ng The Ilocandia Photographic Society ang kanilang mga litrato ng mga pinagmamalaking kultura at tanawin ng lalawigan. Gayudin ang grupo ng mga pintor sa kanilang mga obra.

Nito ngang kapaskuhan, ang Ilocos Norte ang itinanghal na "destination of the month" dahil sa Paskua mi ditoy: Christmas in Ilocos. Iba't-ibang mga aktibidades ang inihanda ng lalawigan para sa mga Ilokano at mga bisita nila. Para sa mga adventure seekers at sports enthusiasts ay nagkaroon ng 4x4 sand race sa Sand Dunes sa Paoay, na isang geological monument. Maaari din dito mag-sand boarding at maganda ang Sand Dunes para sa photography at film shoots. Sa mga mahihilig kumain, matitikman ang mga masasarap ng lutong-Ilokano kagaya ng empanada, bagnet o chicharon, longganiza, pakbet, dinuguan pizza, pakbet pizza, at iba pa sa food fair. Mayroon din nagtanghal ng tribal dancing at traditional rituals. At makikita pa din ang world-class traditional belen o nativity scene na binubuo ng mga life-size na estatwa sa Paoay Church.."

Anonymous Diary Blog / Love America Again
November 27, 2022, 07:47:01 PM
Spam Email: I consider it a badge of honor that the radical Left hates me and Turning Point USA.

They have tried for nearly a decade to "cancel" me, my amazing TPUSA staff and our student leaders, and the important work we're doing on high school and college campuses across the country.

I'm proud that you've shown you stand with us, too -- because I know that you won't be pushed around by the Left-wing Thought Police either!

At Turning Point USA, we're reaching MILLIONS of young people and inspiring them to love America again.

We're working around the clock to rescue the next generation from the false promises of failed Socialism -- and to inspire the next generation to love America again, just like you and I do.

We expose the toxic lies of the radical Left, and we teach the next generation the truth: 

The United States of America is the GREATEST country in the history of the world.

The United States Constitution is the MOST exceptional political document ever written.

Capitalism is the MOST moral and proven economic system ever discovered.

No other group, Right or Left, reaches as many young people as Turning Point  USA. That's why we're the #1 target of the Marxist Left!

Let the Left hate me and Real Americans like you for our patriotism, our faith, our  unapologetic love of America, and our unwavering belief in American Greatness.

Because together, we are building a network of 500,000+ patriotic young people who love our country and share our powerful, pro-America values.

These young people are tired of the toxic lies and dangerous political agenda of the Left. They love America, and they know that the racist, sexist, Marxist agenda promoted by progressive professors and socialist students will destroy our country and their future.

They count on Turning Point USA -- which means they really count on YOU, James.

Without your support of TPUSA, these patriotic students would be unequipped in the fight against campus radicals who propagandize the worst of the "Woke" agenda, and they'd be helpless to stop their generation from turning their backs on America to embrace Socialism.

Your support of Turning Point USA has made the difference.

TPUSA's 500,000+ student activists know that Real Americans like you have their backs and won't shrink from the fight.

That's why they stand up and speak out on campus, and that's why they will WIN America's Culture War — starting with this generation!

For America,
L

By Bill Jones / FB
When Indian billionaire Ratanji Tata was asked by the radio presenter in a telephone interview:

Sir, what do you remember when you got the happiest in life?

Ratanji Tata said:

I have gone through four stages of happiness in life, and I finally understood the meaning of true happiness.

The first stage was to accumulate wealth and resources.

But at this stage I didn't get the happiness I wanted.

Then came the second stage of collecting valuables and items.

But I realized that the effect of this thing is also temporary and the luster of precious things does not last long.

Then came the third phase of getting a big project. That was when I had 95% of the diesel supply in India and Africa.

I was also the owner of the largest steel factory in India and Asia.

But even here I did not get the happiness that I had imagined.

The fourth step was when a friend of mine asked me to buy wheelchairs for some disabled children.

About 200 children.

At the behest of the friend, I immediately bought the wheelchairs.

But the friend insisted that I go with him and hand over the wheelchairs to the children. I got ready and went with him.

There I gave these children the wheel chairs with my own hands. I saw a strange glow of happiness on the faces of these children. I saw them all sitting in wheelchairs, moving around and having fun.

It was as if they had reached a picnic spot, where they were sharing a winning gift.

I felt real happiness inside me.

When I decided to leave, one of the kids grabbed my leg.

I tried to slowly release my legs, but the child looked at my face and held my legs tight. I leaned over and asked the child: do you need anything else?

The answer this kid gave me not only shocked me but also completely changed my outlook towards life

This child said:

"I want to remember your face so that when I meet you in heaven, I can recognize you and thank you once again....!!"

Bohol Biodiversity Center in Bilar
propagates 16 of 25 dipterocarps

Did you know that there is a forest giant in Bohol that was believed among the rarest in the Philippines and was thought to be extinct in the country, but is still existent, although endangered?

Quisumbing-guisok (Hopea quisumbingiana) or siyam and sungkad in Samar and Leyte is a dipterocarp, meaning its fruit have two wings (di-ptero-carpus) is critically endangered and has been thought of as extinct, but a few are still surviving in Bohol, according to Restituto Piolio, center chief at the Capitol-owned Bohol Biodiversity Center (BBC) in Bilar.

In fact, another dipterocarp, Yakal Saplongan (Hopea plagata) has also been found and only in Sierra Bullones in Bohol, he added.

In the country, we have 24 dipterocarp species and 4 sub species, he said as he explained how dipterocarps grow strong and straight in the forests, lording it over other species in the battle for sunlight.

Before the dipterocarp project, publications has it that Bohol has only three species, but with Edwino Fernando and accompanying taxonomists of the University of the Philippines, Visayas State University and Soils and Water Conservation Foundation, we found out that we have 16 and not just three species as earlier published.

And to make sure that these species are again seen, the Bohol Environment Code of 1998 put up the BBC in a government property in Bilar to make sure that propagation of these rare disappearing species can start and rejuvenating the province's forests of its endemic giants and endemic trees can take a good root.

"Before, we did not know where these trees can be found, it was the SWCF and company who went out and identified these trees especially the dipterocarps and where they are located, they started it all," confesses Jimmy Rautraut, who was among those who would be sent out to the forests to gather wildlings and seeds that fall from the fruiting giants and endemic plants.     

With over six years of service and now the center water system management manager in the nursery, Rautraut, who is well past his sixty, continues to enjoy bagging the wildlings, some of which he could not identify as he modestly admits he still has to know much about these trees.

With the Bohol Environment Code, the BBC has been mandated to propagate these trees so seedlings can be available any time people go on tree planting programs.

Rolando Agpaoa, nursery in charge, said "based on our semestral target, we are to produce 160K assorted seedlings but this year, we targeted 200K native, endemic and dipterocarp seedlings, others we planted, some we collected while others are planting," as he was pointing to a crude greenhouse topped with palm leaves where the delicate wildlings are hardened before they can be properly bagged. 

Beside these crude green houses are rows upon rows of bagged and labeled seedlings of Guijo (Shorea guiso) for construction, ship and boat building, Palosapis (Shorea palosapis), Narig (Vatica elliptica), Quisumbing guisok (Hopea quisumbingiana), Manggachapui (Hopea acuminate) famed for being the materials for Manila galeons and Guisok-guisok (Hopea philippinensis), neatly arranged.

On the other side, Yakal Saplungan (Hopea plagata), the Philippines fifth hardest wood, Mayapis (Dipterocarpus turbinatus) which is a source of medicines from its resin to it bark and the wood is material for plywood, White lauan (Shorea contorta), Apitong (Dipterocarpus grandiflorus), Yakal malibato (Shorea malibato), Tanguile (Shorea polysperma), Almon (Shorea almon), Manggasinoro (Shorea assamica ssp. Philippinensis), Hasselts panau (Dipterocarpus hasseltii) and Malaanonang (Parashorea malaanonan).

"Majority of these, we have propagated at the bursary, but some hardwoods do have erratic flowering and fruiting seasons, some between 2-10 years, other from 10-20, so we really have to wait," Piolio said.

Ang the BBC has also kept plots upon plots of bagged endemic and native tree species.

Endemic species are those that can also be found in other provinces and islands in the region like Mindanao and Luzon, while native species are those which can only be found in Bohol.

Endemic species like Talisay gubat (Terminalia foeditisimma), Bani (Pongamia pinnata), Sagimsim (Syzygium brevistylum), Libas (Spondias pinnata), Aniam gubat (Antedesma sobolivaceum), Bitanghol (Callophyllum blancoi), Toog (Petersianthus quadrialatus), Siar (Peltophorum pterocarpum), Kalingag (Cinnamomum mercadoi), Langin (Micromelum caudatum), Antipolo (Artocarpus blancoi),Tagibokbok (Gomphandra apoensis), Cacao (Theobroma cacao), and still a hundred more or less, are also neatly stocked in the nursery, awaiting for Boholanos to do their share of the planting.

These species are adapted to the local climate, can withstand extreme heat and weather conditions prevalent in the tropics, helps conserve areas of biodiversity as well as maintain the balance in the ecosystem, foresters all agree.

And to think that we are only getting these wildlings from a few areas where the SWCF went, and there are still forest areas in Bohol where no focused study have been started, you could just simply gape at the possibilities, Rautraut said.

And now that the local authorities have pushed for the endemic, native, fruit bearing and dipterocarps in tree planting activities, BBC is there to serve and stay.

Those interested in planting these, can visit the BBC in Bilar or request from the Office of the Governor for seedlings over 50 pcs.

BBC staff also monitors and evaluates those trees whose seedlings were sourced out there, to make sure that technical assistance can be given and that those requesting parties truly nurture their planted trees.

And thanks to the BBC staff led by Piolio, there is always that tree seedling of a rare Bohol native trees that will soon rise and regain the forest cover we have lost in the last decades. (rahc/PIA-7/Bohol)

Family & Parenting / Why Not Gossip?
November 27, 2022, 12:32:31 AM
Here's why you should not GOSSIP.
In Ancient Greece, Socrates had a great reputation of wisdom. One day, someone came to find the great philosopher and said to him:
- Do you know what I just heard about your friend?
- A moment, replied Socrates. Before you tell me, I would like to test you the three sieves.
- The three sieves?
- Yes, continued Socrates. Before telling anything about the others, it's good to take the time to filter what you mean. I call it the test of the three sieves. The first sieve is the TRUTH. Have you checked if what you're going to tell me is true?
- No, I just heard it.
- Very good! So, you don't know if it's true. We continue with the second sieve, that of KINDNESS. What you want to tell me about my friend, is it good?
- Oh, no! On the contrary.
- So, questioned Socrates, you want to tell me bad things about him and you're not even sure they're true? Maybe you can still pass the test of the third sieve, that of UTILITY. Is it useful that I know what you're going to tell me about this friend?
- No, really.
- So, concluded Socrates, what you were going to tell me is neither true, nor good, nor useful. Why, then, did you want to tell me this?
"Gossip is a bad thing. In the beginning it may seem enjoyable and fun, but in the end, it fills our hearts with bitterness and poisons us, too!"
- Pope Francis

Baclayon ancient uplifted marine
terraces in Bohol geoparks bid list

CORTES, Bohol, Nov 26 (PIA) –One need not go far to see a 'marvel' caused by the earth's movements through the eons, a few steps off the eastern highway a few blocks before the ancient church in Baclayon is a proof that Bohol indeed rose from under the sea.

Here, a diligent observer would see giant-steps-like gradation of the landscape, one that forms  terraces, clearly recognizable on aerial view.

This is what studying geologists call as Baclayon Uplifted marine Terraces, or Baclayon Ancient Uplifted Marine Terraces.

Caused by drastic environmental changes like melting glaciers during the Pleistocene period and the fluctuating levels of seawater plus local tectonic and environmental conditions, these forces have contributed to an uplift that left three land terraces that is visibly exposed in Baclayon, Dauis and some areas.

Part of the natural geological formations that could help boost Bohol's aspirations to be enrolled into the United Nations Educational, Scientific, Cultural Organization (UNESCO) global geoparks, the Baclayon Uplifted Marine Terraces were formed much older than the uplifted coastlines of the areas in Maribojoc and Loon.
Formed during the Pliocene-Pleistocene time, which is about 5 million years to 11,000 years ago, the Baclayon Uplifted Marine Terraces is what geologists termed as half-Horst structure where an upthrown block lying between two steep-angled fault blocks are pushed up by vertical tectonic movements, producing three levels of uplift spanning roughly two million years.

The subsequent vertical tectonic movements have resulted in landforms manifested in terraces that rise from 20 to 40 to 60 feet above the mean sea level, as is visible in Poblacion, Baclayon stretching towards Montana.

The same uplift can also be documented in Dauis, in the cliff behind the catholic cemetery and rising up to barangay Mayacabac to parts of Catarman.

In the vicinity of Baclayon, there are morphologically three terraces with elevations of 20 meters, 40 meters and 60 meters above sea levels, published a study, suggesting the intensive tectonic uplift of the island as seen in this site.

In dating the uplift, geologists used Uranium-Thorium isotope analysis and this indicated that the first terrace at 20 meters above sea level emerged between 129,000 years ago, and the third terrace which is at 60 meters high emerged  about 310,000 years ago.

Science and Research / Peter Kalmus NASA Scientist
November 26, 2022, 08:17:54 PM
By Amie TV

This is Peter Kalmus, a NASA scientist and Climate Activist who's recently got arrested alongside with other activist by the cops because of their PEACEFUL PROTEST. He said that we only got less than 3 years to do about climate change before we will face catastrophic consequences of Global Warming and the government didn't do something.
They want to end the use of fossil fuels and other bad sources of energy that rises he temperature of our environment.

We are clearly facing the consequences slowly like how numbers cyclones recently increased and caused a major impact to our country like Typhoon Odette and Bagyong Agaton. Global Warming is also a major cause of natural disasters such as Cyclones and recent study shows that the global temperature increased for the last few decades.

Sadly, most people don't even care and government doesn't listen and industrial companies are still continually destroying our planet. It's is so sad people like Peter Kalmus and Greta Thunberg are risking their lives just for the good of our lives, for our planet, and also for the future generation.

HERE'S WHAT YOU CAN DO TO HELP OUR CLIMATE:
●Lessen the use of fossil fuels and find our renewable source if possible.
●Avoid burning garbages, this is one of our normalized hobbit but it needs to be stopped especially if most of the trash are made with plastic which is a made of carbon.
●Save energy and supplies.
● Donate and support Non-governmental Organizations activities that help fight Global warming.

People like Peter and other activist gives us hope for humanity even though they risked their lives for our future and to the children of this generation. They show how selfish and unconcerned the government and the industry just for the sake of economy and money. #econotego

Let's fight those problems together.
Show love to our Mother Earth

How To Tips / Avoid Credit Card at All Times
November 26, 2022, 08:13:09 PM
This message is awaiting approval by a moderator.
By Nomad Finance Girl
I was already 27 when I got my first credit card.

If you Google the word "credit", eto ang lalabas:

The ability of a customer to obtain goods or services before payment, based on the trust that payment will be made in the future.

So, getting a card assumes that you can pay.

Hindi ka kukuha ng card dahil wala kang pera. You will get one because you know you'll be able to pay.

Here are 3 conditions I had for myself before getting a card:

Only get a card if I can pay in full - 100%, every single month, walang palya.

Whenever I get my statement, I always pay in full.

Kadalasan, maririnig natin ang advice na pwede kang magbayad ng minimum. Totoo yon, pwede naman talaga.

Pero porket ba pwede ay dapat?

Before I got a card, I asked myself, "Will I be able to pay in full every billing statement?"

Kasi kung hindi, di na lang ako mag cacard. Bakit?

I don't want to place myself in a position where I get the power to buy something I won't be able to pay for. The stress is not worth it.

Having a card gives us the illusion that we can buy anything we want because we're not seeing actual cash come out of our pockets. But what's really happening is we're getting money from our future selves.

Use it for installment purposes.

If I can pay the item in full, I'll pay for it right away (para tapos na).

But a card would be useful if I want to pay the item in installments. I often do this for gadgets that I need for work. My mentality behind gadgets is I'm "renting" them out. After 1 to 2 years, I can sell them and use the money to "rent out" another gadget.

But, when I do this, just like Condition 1, I make sure that the total payment of all "rented" items can be paid in full every billing period.

Use it for organization purposes.

When I pay for necessities like groceries, life insurance, house bills, I use my card.

The only reason I do this is so that I can collect all payments into one payment date and just pay them in one go.

Again, this goes back to Condition 1: PAY IN FULL.

As you can see, my hard set rule for cards is simple: IF YOU CAN'T PAY IT IN FULL, DON'T GET ONE.

The stress and worry that comes with not being able to pay debts is not worth the short-term pleasure that comes with shopping.

Mas marami kang utang, mas marami kang harang towards wealth growth and financial freedom. As much as possible, avoid placing these obstacles in your way.

Hope this helps!

---

IMPORTANT: There have been a lot of credit card call scams lately. Ang gagaling nila, they sound so professional and legit. Please be careful whenever you receive calls asking for your details. I tell them, "I'll settle this face to face with my bank manager", and they stop there. Never go for non-face-to-face transactions when it comes to settling your accounts.

Another great reason to get a card is to increase your credit score. Each card holder has a credit score which determines whether lenders would want to let you borrow money or not. So, kung panget ang credit rating mo, hindi ka makakautang for "good debts" - eg: bahay, business capital, etc. Make sure you keep your credit score healthy!

Post is not sponsored. Here are my considerations when choosing a bank: available payment channels, benefits, access to VIP circle, and manager to client ratio.

Love Talk / Disinformation is an old story
November 25, 2022, 09:31:25 PM
Disinformation is an old story, fuelled by new technology.
Mobilising and manipulating information was a feature of history long before modern journalism established standards which define news as a genre based on particular rules of integrity. An early record dates back to ancient Rome, when Antony met Cleopatra and his political enemy Octavian launched a smear campaign against him with "short, sharp slogans written upon coins in the style of archaic Tweets." The perpetrator became the first Roman Emperor and "fake news had allowed Octavian to hack the republican system once and for all".
But the 21st century has seen the weaponisation of information on an unprecedented scale. Powerful new technology makes the manipulation and fabrication of content simple, and social networks dramatically amplify falsehoods peddled by States, populist politicians, and dishonest corporate entities, as they are shared by uncritical publics. The platforms have become fertile ground for computational propaganda, 'trolling' and 'troll armies'; 'sock-puppet' networks', and 'spoofers'. Then, there is the arrival of profiteering 'troll farms' around elections.
Today, social media is fuelled by many kinds of content, ranging from the personal to the political. There are many instances produced overtly or covertly by governments, and/ or an industry of public relations companies under contract to political or commercial actors. As a result, countless bloggers, Instagram 'influencers' and YouTube stars
promote products and politicians without disclosing that they are paid to do so. Covert payments are also made to commentators (often with false identities) who seek to affirm, discredit or intimidate in online fora. In the midst of this, journalism loses ground, and itself becomes a subject not just of fair criticism, but also existential attack. — UNESCO 2018. Journalism, 'Fake News,' and Disinformation.

Anonymous Diary Blog / The World is Small
November 25, 2022, 09:28:03 PM
From a favorite columnist & namesake, Francis Kong

A SMALL WORLD

The world is small and the industry is smaller. Those who cheated will always cross paths with those with whom they have been cheated. And when they do – guess who gets uncomfortable? Do not cheat. Do not betray people's trust. Protect your name and credibility. This is the only way to build and sustain business success.

-oOo-

Let me say this:

The world is becoming smaller and smaller. It can be rotated with a mouse, not giant metal bird. Yes, with just a mouse with a very long tail. It you have cheated or lied or faked or forge, join your ancestors in their mausoleum. Perhaps, you may hide there undetected, only when you have started to smell.

For the lawless, the world has walls. Nowhere to escape. Even in the navel of the sea, law enforcers will fish you out. The jail fits for free board and lodging.

Before you finish singing "Happy birthday," the NBI has swooped to fetch you. Before you finish brushing your teeth, the FBI knocks at your door.

When you have done something wrong, you find difficulty in breathing, for the world is too small, too congested, too crammed full, too many eyes watching you, countless ears listening to your nervous breathing. The arm of the law is too long. It can measure the world's diameter, lengths, angles, depths, and peaks.

When nobody trusts you anymore, the world becomes a can of sardines -- too small, and smells fishy. A cat may snatch anytime the piece called globe.

"The LORD detests lying lips, but he delights in people who are trustworthy." (Proverbs 12:22)

" 'Do not steal. " 'Do not lie. " 'Do not deceive one another.'" (Leviticus 19:11)

Loboc - Bohol / Santa Cecilia Musical
November 25, 2022, 09:17:18 AM
Sta Cecilia the Musical ipasundayag
sa Loboc, KasingSIning karon Nob 22
By REY Anthony Chiu

TAGBILARAN CITY, Bohol, Nov 22 2022 (PIA) –Agi og pagtamud saAdlaw ni Santa Cecilia, patrona sa mga musikero, ipasundayag sa mga katawhan nga naa sa teatro sa Loboc ang Santa Cecilia Musical, us aka inawit nga saysay sa kinabuhi sa santa nga martir.

Gituohan nga bayae nga Romana, si Cecilia mipanaad nga mabuhi nga ulay, apan gipugos kini sa iyang banay sa pagpamana sa usa ka pagano nga si Valerian.

Sa adlaw sa ilang kasal, nagpalain si Cecilia ug nagkanta og mga pagdayeg sa Dios.

Sa susamang adlaw sa iyang kasal, gikompisal ni Cecilia ngadto sa iyang pamanhonon nga adunay anghel nga nagbantay kaniya, ug maoy magpadangat sa silot ngadto kang bisan kinsa nga manghilabut sa iyang pagkababaye.

Hinuon, gipasalig usab niya nga kon tahoron sa iyang pamanhonon ang iyang pagka-ulay, iyang higugmaon ang iyang mabana.

Niini, nangita si Valerian sa oportunidad nga ikahibalag ang anghel nga nagbantay sa iyang pangasaw-onon.

Giingnan ni Cecilia ang iyang pamanhonon nga makita niya anghel kon moadto siya sa ikatulo nga batong timan-anan sa Via Appia sa Roma, unya magpabunyag ni Papa Urban I.

Human mapabalhin ang tinuohan sa nabana, nakita niini ang anghel nga naga korona kang Cecilia sa tinuhog nga mga rosas ug lila.

Human sa pila ka tuig, nahimo usab nga martir si Cecilia human patya usab ang iyang bana nga si Valerian sa paglutos niadtong panahona.

Giigngon nga sa makatulo nga higayon, gitigbas sa espada ang liog ni Cecilia apan nagpabilin pa gihapon siya nga buhi sulod sa sunod nga tulo ka adlaw, kanus-a iyang nahangyo ang Santo papa nga ipabarug sa iyang balay ang usa ka simbahan.

Si Santa Cecilia, sukad niadto, giisip na nga patrona sa mga mag-aawit ug nga musikero. 

Sa iyang kapistahan, Nobyembre 22, naadnan na sa Loboc nga maghimo og mga konsyerto ug programa pagsaulog sa Santa nga ilang ikaduhang Patrona.

Ug kauban sa mga molupyo sa Loboc nga giilang sentro sa musika sa Bohol, naghugpong ang mga katawhan: mga musikero ug labing batid nga mga mang-aawit, dinuyogan sa Kasing Sining Theater Company aron ikatanyag ug ikapasundayag ang Santa Cecilia Musical karong adlawa, matud ni Gardy Labad, executive director ug Founder sa Kasing Sining.

Sa pasundayag igkita ang mga labing hawod nga mga musikero ug mang-aawit, magtugtogay sa mga instrumento ug mga pangtambol sa us aka engrande nga pagpadayag sa kinabuhi sa martir nga gitahud sa mga musikero sa Loboc.

Ang pasundayag adto himoon sa sulod sa napahiuli nga simbahan sa Loboc nga gihalad alang kang San Pedro ug San Pablo, ang Diocesan Shrine sa Birhen sa Guadalupe Extremadura sa Loboc diha sa Poblacion sawang sa Loboc.

Ang matinee show karong alas 3:00 sa palis ug   ang Gala show sa Santa Cecilia karong alas 7:00 sa gabii. (PIA-7/Bohol)

Anonymous Diary Blog / Jealous and Overprotective
November 25, 2022, 08:59:47 AM
By Jessica McDaniel
Everyone wants a "jealous" "overprotective" boyfriend until you can't leave your house without his permission.

Until you start losing friends/family because he doesn't trust them.

Everyone thinks it's cute having an overprotective boyfriend until you can't wear your favorite dress because it shows too much skin.

Or your phone gets wiped, cause the only phone number you need is his.

It's cute until you get hit and choked when you're trying to leave or disagree with something.

It's cute until you have to watch over your shoulder and live in fear because that man could snap and kill you or punch holes in the wall over the littlest thing.

It's cute until you try to talk about how you feel, how unsafe you are in his presence, & he reacts like an adult child, and throws a fit then leaves...

Or your stuck trying to defend yourself AGAIN....

A man being controlling doesn't mean he loves you. It's wrong. It's sick. He needs help! And you need to get away. FAST.

I learned the hard way, it started off as cute and what I knew as love. Now it makes me sick to my stomach just thinking about it. I ignored red flag after red flag, because that's what I thought love was. That's what I grew up learning!

Now I have been courting a guy for the last few months, whom I don't have to check in with to prove I'm not cheating.

We discuss things like adults, & if we disagree about something, we talk about it.

I wear whatever I want, I wear makeup, & it doesn't turn into an argument about who I'm trying to impress! He doesn't feel threatened by my beauty inside or outside! He knows he has my heart.

He doesn't question me, or threaten me.
He TRUSTS me.

It's the most amazing feeling knowing that I am safe with him, physically, emotionally, mentally, & spiritually.

It's been rough at times, working through triggers & trauma from my past relationships.

But he has been patient, understanding, & forgiving. He could've walked away at anytime. And he hasn't.

He is my best friend. I can talk to him about anything and it doesn't turn into a fight. He lets me know if I do something he doesn't like. & I feel safe enough to do the same with him.

Don't settle for overprotective or controlling. Because it will not end well! Find someone that loves Jesus, that loves others, including strangers. Wait for someone that loves correctly.
