Lifestyle, Culture and Arts / Moro-moro
May 05, 2012, 02:16:28 PM
Moro-moro (Comedia) is a play that became popular in the Philippines during the Spanish colonial period. It depicted battles between Christians and Moros--as Muslims in the Philippines are popularly known--with the Moros as the perpetual villains who always lost to the Christians in the end. -- http://en.wikipilipinas.org/

Lifestyle, Culture and Arts / Re: The top 10 irritating Pinoy expressions
May 05, 2012, 02:13:45 PM
But here’s my list of the 10 most irritating Pinoy expressions in English â€" irritating not necessarily because they’re wrong (although some are), but because they’re everywhere you look and listen.
1. “In fairness.†The most popular phrase in Pinoy showbiz, where fairness is apparently in great demand. Every time I hear this, my mind goes, “In fairness to whom or to what?â€, but you never get to hear the other end of the phrase, so much so that you begin to suspect that the speaker really means “In fairness to me!â€
2. “As far as.†I don’t mean “as far as the eye can see,†but “As far as accommodations, everything is already taken care of†(or, more likely in these parts, “taken cared ofâ€) or “As far as Manny Pacquiao, either Hatton or Mayweather will be okay for his next fight.†As in the above, I keep looking for the missing “is (or are) concerned†after “as far as†â€" but it looks like that’s as far as most people will go.
3. “At this point in time,†the Pinoy version of “At this moment in time.†I can recall precisely when I began hearing this wondrously redundant expression over the airwaves â€" during the coverage of the 1986 EDSA revolt and its aftermath, from which point (in time?) it became a staple of reporters and broadcasters. Why not just say, “at this point†or “at this time†or the even more economical “today†or “nowâ€?
4. “Remains to be.†Not in the sense of “It remains to be seen if Filipinos will finally vote for the right person,†but rather “The deposit remains to be unclaimed†or “This painter remains to be unappreciated by the critics.†“To be� Not to be!
5. “Wherein.†I don’t know how this word crept into the vocabulary and overran the place, rather like the carnivore snail someone imported that ate up all the other garden creatures both good and bad, but you hear it everywhere, taking over where (or wherein?) the good old “where†(or, sometimes, the more precise “wherebyâ€) should suffice. Hear this: “The house wherein the hero was born will be turned into a museum.†Want to have some fun? Google these two words together: “wherein†and “Philippines.†You’ll find choice examples like “He entered the University of the Philippines wherein he studied Medicine.â€
6. “Demand for.†I’ve already written about this before, but obviously no one in government and corporate officialdom reads me, so we still have signs screaming “Demand for your receipt!â€
7. “Literally.†Don’t people know that “literally†means, well, “literallyâ€? I’ve heard people say “I’m so hungry I could literally eat a horse!†Really? I tried horsemeat once, in little nibblesâ€"no, it didn’t taste like chicken â€" so I guess I could say “I literally ate horse,†but literally eating a horse will require hunger the size of Africa.
8. “Whatever.†You ask someone a perfectly good question you’ve taken minutes to compose, and that person shrugs her shoulders or rolls his eyes and says “Whateverrrr….†Don’t you just want to strangle that person on the spot?
9. “Wholistic/holistic.†First of all, just how do you spell this thing? Does it come with a W or not? The medical dictionary defines “holism†(no W) as “the conception of a man as a functioning whole. But then you have websites devoted to “The Wholistic Pet†and “Wholistic Health Solutions†(which, incidentally, sells the Home Colon Cleaning Kit). This word (with or without the W â€" whatever) seems to be one of those warm and fuzzy buzzwords that came in with New Age music, organic tomatoes, and NGOs. (I’ll talk about “stakeholders†some other day.)
10. “Multiawarded.†It’s No. 10 on this list, but it tops my list of Ugliest Frankenwords in the Universe. Of course, it’s popular because it does the job of saying “He (or she) has won not just one but many prizes!†Anyone should be happy to be multiawarded, and I should be honored that this word’s been often applied to me in introductions and such â€" but it isn’t false modesty at work when you see me wincing at the word. “Prizewinning†will do. Or, better yet, “many-splendored.†But that would no longer be me.

Well, come now, that wasn’t too bad, was it? We hear these expressions hereabouts now and then, but not that often, so they don’t grate on us as they might with the English. For example, we hardly ever say, “It’s not rocket science,†because, well, we don’t have rocket science in this country. Indeed we have our own, uhm, fairly unique ways of putting things and of getting annoyed by them.
I’ve compiled my own list of irritating expressions in English as we Filipinos use the language among ourselves, with others, over the airwaves, in the office, in conferences, and in the papers. I’m sure you can add to this list â€" do send me your pet peeves â€" and this comes with the caveat that the annoyance may be entirely mine. If they don’t bother you, then don’t lose any sleep over them; Lord knows we suffer enough aggravations in this life and in this country without having to be upset by wrong or awkward prepositions.
(Speaking of which, a reader wrote in recently to say how he or she â€" there was no name in the email address â€" failed to appreciate whatever I was doing in my column-piece on getting a La-Z-Boy, because I had committed the grievous error of saying “in the mall†instead of “at the mall†in my first sentence. I said I agreed that “at the mall†was probably the preferred and “correct†form, but I also asked him/her to Google the whole phrase “in the mall†to see how it’s entered common usage. Language â€" unfortunately or otherwise â€" isn’t graven in stone like math, perhaps to the distress of ruler-toting schoolmarms; one billion people saying “1+1=3†isn’t going to make it so. But if enough peopleâ€"including influential writers and editors in places like Newsweek and The New York Times â€" say “different than†instead of “different from,†which I’m sticking with only because it’s what I’ve been used to, then the language will change; it already has. This might as well be the place for me to remind readers that while I do teach English and while I deeply value and enjoy language as a writer, I don’t think of myself as a stickler for rules, as some would like me to be. I cringe at bad language and poor grammar, but there are far worse things in life to fret over, and some of the worst damage to English is being perpetrated by some fools in Congress who insist on an English-only policy when they can barely speak or write it. I once had to sit through a hearing where a congressman held forth on “the youngs, the youngs of this country!â€)

Last November, the folks at Oxford University came out with a list of “top 10 irritating expressions†in the English language, by which I suppose they meant the English language as it’s employed in their corner of the English-speaking world, and not necessarily in what used to be the backwaters of the Bard’s dominion, in places like India and the Philippines. “Irritating†is, of course, a matter of cultural and personal predisposition. One man’s joke â€" such as the “Barack the Magic Negro†song that top Republicans passed among themselves â€" could be another man’s slur, and what annoys an Americanâ€"such as a Pinoy texting in the middle of conversation â€" might be perfectly normal to the other fellow.
So the Oxford list might cause some of us to just go “Eh?â€, but it’s always interesting to see what ticks off other people. Now let’s see which among the following words or phrases feels like a bug in your ear:
1. At the end of the day
2. Fairly unique
3. I personally
4. At this moment in time
5. With all due respect
6. Absolutely
7. It’s a nightmare
8. Shouldn’t of
9. 24/7
10. It’s not rocket science

Józef Kowalski was born on February 2, 1900 and at the age of 111 is thought to be not just Poland’s oldest living man but also the oldest military veteran in the world. He is also the only living verified veteran of the 1919-1921 Polish-Soviet War.
Kowalski served in the 22nd Regiment of the Polish Army. He took part in the September Campaign in World War II, and was later held in a concentration camp. On his 110th birthday, he was awarded the Officer’s Cross of the Order of Polonia Restituta for his war service by President Lech KaczyÅ,,ski.
Assuming Kowalski lives to the age of 114 the last known veteran of the Polish-Soviet war will pass away on or about the year 2014. However, as we know the veterans of conflicts from this era seem to die at the age of 110-111, it may be safer to assume this year, 2012, will be the end for Mr. Kowalski. -- http://www.anditdidntcostmeadime.com/

The Parable of the Rich Fool
Luke 12:13-21 (New International Version)
13 Someone in the crowd said to him, “Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me.â€
14 Jesus replied, “Man, who appointed me a judge or an arbiter between you?†15 Then he said to them, “Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; life does not consist in an abundance of possessions.â€
16 And he told them this parable: “The ground of a certain rich man yielded an abundant harvest. 17 He thought to himself, ‘What shall I do? I have no place to store my crops.’
18 “Then he said, ‘This is what I’ll do. I will tear down my barns and build bigger ones, and there I will store my surplus grain. 19 And I’ll say to myself, “You have plenty of grain laid up for many years. Take life easy; eat, drink and be merry.â€â€™
20 “But God said to him, ‘You fool! This very night your life will be demanded from you. Then who will get what you have prepared for yourself?’
21 “This is how it will be with whoever stores up things for themselves but is not rich toward God.â€

in other words, racism seems ingrained in all races, in varying degrees, and i take care to point out that it's in varying degrees, from the most benign to the most rabid and destructive, judging from the posted personal observations and experiences.
there's always this difference that is credited to the color of one's skin or one's nationality. too bad, but that is very real.
in the philippines, we may take it for granted, but isn't it racism when we jokingly say that caucasians give off a bad smell? or that older caucasians who walk our streets are suspected, derisively, as pedophiles? can we blame marlon brando who once declared that filipinos are sly (and that's his experience with filipinos in the u.s.). oh, it's easy to react with righteous indignation that we are victims of racism. but if we look closer at the mirror, we can be racists too, after all. thus it's safe enough to say that racism is universal.
now let's hear it from the martians...

Even without the Mutual Defense Treaty, China will not attack the Philippines. Even if all this saber-rattling is only meant to distract the Chinese public away from disturbing domestic issues, attacking the Philippines under present international realities is against China's national interest.

Tak-opan ang screening karong Biyernes, Mayo 4, aron maandam ang tanang makapasar nga mga pasyente alang sa operasyon. Ang mga pasyente nga may laboratory results giawhag sa pagpakita sa ilang mga dokumento ngadto sa mga doktor aron mas daling matugkad ang ilang balatian.
Atol sa screening, susihon sa mga doktor ang kahaom sa panglawas sa mga pasyente alang sa makuti nga operasyon. Kini aron kalikayan ang posible nga mga komplikasyon. Susihon sab sa social workers ang ekonomikanhon nga kahimtang sa mga pasyente. Kini aron pagtino nga ang labing tabanganan mao gyud ang una nga maatiman.

How Are Microcap Stocks Different From Other Stocks?
Lack of Public Information The biggest difference between a microcap stock and other stocks is the amount of reliable, publicly available information about the company. Larger public companies file reports with the SEC that any investor can get for free from the SEC's website. Professional stock analysts regularly research and write about larger public companies, and it's easy to find their stock prices in the newspaper. In contrast, information about microcap companies can be extremely difficult to find, making them more vulnerable to investment fraud schemes.
No Minimum Listing Standards Companies that trade their stocks on major exchanges and in the Nasdaq Stock Market must meet minimum listing standards. For example, they must have minimum amounts of net assets and minimum numbers of shareholders. In contrast, companies on the OTCBB or the Pink Sheets do not have to meet any minimum standards.
Risk While all investments involve risk, microcap stocks are among the most risky. Many microcap companies tend to be new and have no proven track record. Some of these companies have no assets or operations. Others have products and services that are still in development or have yet to be tested in the market. Another risk that pertains to microcap stocks involves the low volumes of trades. Because microcap stocks trade in low volumes, any size of trade can have a large percentage impact on the price of the stock.

Where Do Microcap Stocks Trade?
Many microcap stocks trade in the "over-the-counter" (OTC) market and are quoted on OTC systems, such as the OTC Bulletin Board (OTCBB) or the "Pink Sheets."
OTC Bulletin Board The OTCBB is an electronic quotation system that displays real-time quotes, last-sale prices, and volume information for many OTC securities that are not listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market or a national securities exchange. Brokers who subscribe to the system can use the OTCBB to look up prices or enter quotes for OTC securities. Although the FINRA oversees the OTCBB, the OTCBB is not part of the Nasdaq Stock Market. Fraudsters often claim that an OTCBB company is a Nasdaq company to mislead investors into thinking that the company is bigger than it is.
The "Pink Sheets" The Pink Sheets â€" named for the color of paper on which they've historically been printed â€" are listings of price quotes for companies that trade in the over-the-counter market (OTC market). "Market makers" â€" the brokers who commit to buying and selling the securities of OTC issuers-can use the pink sheets to publish bid and ask prices. A company named Pink Sheets LLC, formerly known as the National Quotation Bureau, publishes the pink sheets in both hard copy and electronic format. Pink Sheets LLC is not registered with the SEC as a stock exchange, nor does the SEC regulate its activities.

What Is a Microcap Stock?
The term "microcap stock" applies to companies with low or "micro" capitalizations, meaning the total value of the company's stock. Microcap companies typically have limited assets. For example, in cases where the SEC suspended trading in microcap stocks, the average company had only $6 million in net tangible assets â€" and nearly half had less than $1.25 million. Microcap stocks tend to be low priced and trade in low volumes.

Microcap Stock: A Guide for Investors
Introduction
Information is the investor's best tool when it comes to investing wisely. But accurate information about "microcap stocks" â€" low-priced stocks issued by the smallest of companies â€" may be difficult to find. Many microcap companies do not file financial reports with the SEC, so it's hard for investors to get the facts about the company's management, products, services, and finances. When reliable information is scarce, fraudsters can easily spread false information about microcap companies, making profits while creating losses for unsuspecting investors.
In the battle against microcap fraud, the SEC has toughened its rules and taken actions against wrongdoers, but we can't stop every microcap fraud. We need your help in winning the battle. Before you consider investing in a microcap company, arm yourself first with information. This alert tells you about microcap stocks, how to find information, what "red flags" to consider, and where to turn if you run into trouble.

Microcap fraud encompasses several types of investor fraud:
Pump and dump schemes, involving use of false or misleading statements to hype stocks, which are "dumped" on the public at inflated prices. Such schemes involve telemarketing and Internet fraud.
Chop stocks, which are stocks purchased for pennies and sold for dollars, providing both brokers and stock promoters massive profits. Brokers are often paid "under the table" undisclosed payoffs to sell such stocks.

Microcap stock fraud
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Microcap stock fraud is a form of securities fraud involving stocks of "microcap" companies, generally defined in the United States as those with a market capitalization of under $250 million. Its prevalence has been estimated to run into the billions of dollars a year. Many microcap stocks are penny stocks, which trade at below $1 a share.
Microcap stock fraud generally takes place among stocks traded on the OTC Bulletin Board and the Pink Sheets Electronic Quotation Service, stocks which usually do not meet the requirements to be listed on the stock exchanges. Some fraud occurs among stocks traded on the NASDAQ Small Cap Market, now called the NASDAQ Capital Market.

A human penis does not contain a bone â€" it becomes erect by filling the sponge-like material in the penis with blood. Despite this, it is possible (in a sense) to break this vital part of your body. A sudden blow to the penis or sharp shock or bending can break the fibrous tissue that contains the spongy material (called the corpora cavernosum).

History / On the Trail of Che Guevara
May 01, 2012, 01:09:15 PM
Long before his image graced the t-shirts of disaffected youth and hipsters everywhere, Che Guevara was inspiring leftist revolutions across Latin America. This didn’t sit well with either the traditional Latin American elite or the power brokers in Washington. It was in Bolivia that Che was tracked down and killed in 1967. Today visitors can trace his final route, across one of the most beautiful countries on earth. Start in the low-lying city of Santa Cruz, where Che passed through on his way to the capital of La Paz. From there make your way to the mountain town of Samaipata, where Che’s guerrilla band once attacked an army post. La Higuera is the small, remote village where he was eventually caught. You may visit the wooded canyon where Che was cornered by the Bolivian army, the schoolhouse where he died from his wounds, and the small hospital where his body was taken. Regardless of your opinion of the man, it’s a marvelous way to see the country. -- http://listverse.com/

Travel and Tours / Chinatown, Panama City, Panama
May 01, 2012, 12:40:40 PM
One may be surprised to learn that the oldest Chinatown in the western hemisphere isn’t in San Francisco or New York. In fact, some 20% of Panama’s diverse population is of Chinese heritage. Located in the colonial San Felipe district of Panama City, Barrio Chino is home to an array of Chinese eateries and markets. It may not be the biggest Chinatown in the world, but it’s an especially offbeat and interesting place. Shop for exotic spices in its neon-bathed alleyways and sample Chinese-Panamanian fare at the greasy spoon of your choice. It’s definitely worth a day’s exploration while visiting this fascinating and dynamic city. -- http://listverse.com/2012/
