Mylene, who is also a very good singer, was ICM's Calendar Girl for 2007. Currently a working student at UB's Office of the Registrar, she is the reigning Miss University of Bohol.

The current Miss UB (2009-2010) is another Loonanon, Nursing student Guldameer Malou Labastilla-Sombrio from Barangay Cantumocad. She was Miss Loon 2008 and finalist in this year's Miss Bohol Sandugo and Miss Bohol International. She was a former Miss UB High School.

History tells us that Yul topped the board member race despite his being in the opposition. He might run for Congress next year if there are no hitches. Lloyd may run for mayor next year without any opponent, unless there is somebody hungry for money from the admin's national allotment for its local candidates.  

Wa juy hanaw ni si Jimmy Galolo nga naa na diay balak nga siya ang ulohan. Nahimamat ra ba jud ni nakong tawhana sa akong pag-adto sa iyang kasagingan.

Nagduga na man ni. 

Kuyaw nang Matig-a Lodge kay kahoy. Old house man gud. Mora'g pre-war ang design. Wala ba kahay mga katingalahang mata sa mga bungbong ana?

I did something like that before. Steamed lang. But I used ground pork (with other ingredients) as filling.

Naa pa gihapon ang Catagbacan-Loon route bisan og gisugdan na pagtrabaho ang pantalan. P80 million ang cost sa first phase ani, which, matud sa info, subhan in April or May next year.

Ongoing tourism-related projects in Loon:

1.  Improvement on the Catagbacan Port in preparation for its conversion into the Loon Bohol International Cruise Ship Port (national government project implemented by the Philippine Ports Authority)

2. Marking of the foundations for the boardwalk and kiosks at Cantomucad for the viewing of mangrove monkeys

3. Technical study on the ruins of the Spanish-era circular cemetery for future consolidation of the remaining structures

4. Pre-implementation technical work (design, marking of sites, etc.) for the Moalong River Nature Adventure Visitors Center

5. Preparations for the mounting of the Third Annual Creative Industry Festival on December 11-12, 2009.

Lindy's Dream:

Ang imong damgo nagpasabot nga kanunay kang mag imagine o mag daydream sa mga butang o kahimtang nga dili mo pa maangkon sa kasamtangan. Dreaming of a palatial house not your own nagpasabot nga nahigot ka sa imong panimalay o dili ka makabiya sa imong mga katungdanan ngadto kanila ug kini makahatag kanimo og babag sa pag-asenso.

Ubang mga Tinagalog nga mora na'g Binisaya kay maoy gamiton kanunay:

So, Bol-anon gyud diay iyang kaliwat. Common man diri sa Bohol nang apelyido nga Remperas.

Catalina's Dream:

Common kaayo nang magdamgo ka nga gukdon unya maapsan ra ba gyud. Ang buot ipasabot niini mao nga adunay nagsumpaki nga mga desisyon sa imong hunahuna. Unya, kon masayop ka sa pag-decide, aduna kay mga higala nga makasinati og kapakyasan. Kini makahatag kanimo og tumang kaguol.   

Ang pagdamgo og nagsakay sa elevator unya mihagsa, kini nagpasabot og misfortune nga maka discourage kanimo.



Nagduda na man ko niining imong mga damgo Cat. Kanunay man negative ang akong makita. Please don't let my interpretation of your dreams affect you drastically. Lingaw-lingaw ra baya ning ato.

Dreaming of old coins denotes despair and physical problems.

Gwapa. Mga Tagalog man tong nag-estoryahay didto.

Tua na lagi. Hala, pagdamgo sa mong tanan. Atong hubaron kon angayan ba gyud mong hatagan og pinaskohan. 

Here's good news. The Department of Education will implement starting next school-year (2010-2011) the use of the province's/region's mother tongue as medium of intruction, including the teaching of Filipino and English grammar. This is in response to pronouncements from UNICEF that during a child's formative years he or she should be taught using his/her mother tongue to hasten understanding and learning. Balik ta ani sa "Dali Kamo", "Nagkita na Gayud", "Sa Kaumahan ug Kabaybayunan", "Sa Sulod ug Gawas sa Panimalay", etc. (titles of textbooks we used in Grade 1 and Grade 2). 

   

Pamahaw: corned beef

Paniudto: munggos, pork chop, 3 ice candy eaten halo-halo style

Snacks: pansit bihon , pan de Loon, biko, butong kinuskus with milk, hot cake (nga bugnaw na)

Panihapon: very red rice, kinilawng tangigi with pahumot nga biyasong, sinugbang sambagon, saging lakatan dagku

Cathy Remperas from Loay.

Raqz, daghan ka'g mga damgo nga managsama ang kahulugan. Kining naulahi nagpasabot gihapon og full trust and confifence on your husband and so much love for him. By the way, you can reach me through this address:

Koddi Prudente
c/o CHARTS, LGU-Loon
Loon, Bohol

Hapit na Pasko, Inday. Ayaw kalimti ang akong mga cards. Bugti sa akong paghubad sa imong mga damgo, ha ha ha ha ha! Salamat daan.

Grabe, nanlimbawot akong balhibo pagkabasa nako niini, right after jud nga akong gi upload ang akong tubag sa mga damgo nimo Inday Raquel. Tan-awa didto sa dream thread aron mahibalo ka sa tubag.

We bought the pasayan fritter and kalderetang kanding in a nearby restaurant. The rest we prepared in our kitchen.

Pamahaw: linung-ag itlog, piniritong tinabal nga mulmul, inun-onang tulingan

Paniudto: pasayan fritter, kalderetang kanding, saging tundan, paklay, C2 iced tea

Panihapon: halang-halang nga Bisayang manok, ginamos turnos

Raquel’s Dreams:

Ang tin-aw nga tubig nagpasabot nga imong masinati ang tumang kalipay ug kaharuhay. Kon nadayon pa og ambak ang imong higala, magmalampuson ka sa tanan nimong gibuhat, gamay man o daku. Apan kay wala man, you will be unsuccessful sa ginagmay ug dili kayo mahinungdanon nga mga buluhaton. 

Ang pagsakay og sakyanan nagpasabot nga aduna kay minahal nga kanunay mag-ungaw ang kinabuhi tungod kay kini haduol usab sa kakuyaw. Gani, kini ang kanunay magpaduol sa kakuyaw. Sa laing bahin, nagpasabot kini nga kanunay mong gisubay ang panglawas sa imong mga anak aron mahilayo sila sa mga simpleng sakit sama sa hilanat.

Ang pagdamgo og tigulang nga babaye nagpasabot usab og mga kaguol nga naghasol kanimo, ug kini kalit mo lang mahinumduman taliwa sa tumang kalipay o celebration ilabi na kon makakita ka og usa ka butang nga nagsimbolo sa nakaingon sa imong kaguol.

Ang gwapa ug gamay nga iro nagpasabot usab sa ginagmay nga mga kalipay nga imong mahatag sa ubang tawo bisan kon wala ka maghunahuna nga makalipay diay kini kanila.

Ang taub nagpasabot og nagkadugay-nagkalami nga relasyon sa imong kapikas. Ang paghatud kaninyo ngadto sa nindot nga kaligoanan nagpasabot nga walay puas ang imong pagtuon kabahin sa mga butang nga aduna kay interest. Usahay ang uban matingala kon giunsa o diin ka nakakat-on sa mga pagtulun-an nga alang kanila, dili ka angayan nga mahibalo o masinati.

Ang pagdamgo sa usa ka paboritong kaligoanan nagpasabot nga adunay usa ka lalaki nga suod nimo kaayo, ug gimingaw kaayo ka kaniya kay dugay na kamong wala magkita.  Sa laing bahin, pirmi na lang gyud kang magdamgo nga gwapa ka. Nahubad na ni nako in the past. Pero karon kay nakakita man kaha ka’g mga ambongang lalaki, kini nagpasabot nga bisan sa panahon nga hapit na ka maminyo, dihay mga lalaki nga wala makahibalo nga minyoonon na diay ka, apan nagpaduding gihapon nganha kanimo. Hangtud karon, adunay mga tawo nga modayeg sa imong kaanyag ilabi na kon mangarte ka aron motambong sa mga special occasions that require you to dress up.

Continue dreaming about “tae”, ha ha ha, kay swerte ang buot ipasabot niini. There will be a rise in fortune especially in the field of agriculture.

Catalina’s Dream:

Homecoming means that there will be good news to rejoice over. Ang wala pagduol kanimo sa imong anak nagpasabot nga anaa siya sa himsog nga panglawas. Ang imong paghilak timaan sa usa ka taphaw nga kalipay nga sa daklit mamahimong kaguol o dimalas kabahin sa negosyo o sa panimalay. Ang mga bulig sa saging nagpasabot og some discontent in regard to your relationship with somebody nga taphaw lang usab ang imong paghigugma kaniya. Sa laing bahin, mahimo kang busy sa mga butang nga dili magbunga og maayo.

Raquel’s Husband’s  Dream:

Mahimuot kanimo ang imong bana kay makit-an ka niya nga adunay gibuhat nga, alang kaniya, dili natural, normal o common. Ma-shock siya kadiyot, and then, after nga makasabot siya sa imong explanation, mokatawa na lang siya o molingo-lingo nga magpahiyom.

second class Inabanga mingaw man dinha kon market day ang calapi di ay unsa man fourth class or fifth class na ?

Dili market day ang basehan sa income classification of the municipality kon dili ang iyang kinatibuk-ang income sa tuig. Baga nang manaboay sa Inabanga kon market day. Very rich ang Inabanga in terms of rice and coconut production. The town is also the country's number one producer of raffia (saguran), which is exported as such or processed into other products (bags, accessories, furniture accents, etc.) before being exported.

Kinatas-ang causeway sa Bohol ang sa Pangangan. Pero in terms of tourism, especially diving, mas ilado sa mga foreigners ang nearby Cabilao.

Birth anniversary man gud karon sa akong bro-n-law. Mao nga food trip muna muna.

Despite having quite a number of resorts, Panglao only earns from their business permits but does not have any share on their income. Since some of them have owners who are based elsewhere, they can also pay their taxes where they are based.  Panglao has only 10 barangays. Compare that to 67 of Loon, 50 of Inabanga, 44 of Ubay, or 34 of Tubigon. Even if the barangays of these towns only have sari-sari stores, they can amass quite a sum from the collection of business permit fees. These towns also have high population. Imagine the income raised from civil registry certificates alone. Jagna, on the other hand, is a fifth or fourth class municipality despite its having 33 barangays and a busy port.    

Yes.

Pirting panghawoy sa akong kamot pag scroll scroll gikan sa sinugdanan. Karon pa man gud ko nakabagat ani nga thread. Makalingaw.

Pamahaw: inun-onang tulingan, kapeng mais

Paniudto: taugi, adobong manok

Snacks: Mocha shake with sago, ensaymada

Panihapon: whole chicken sinabwan; adobong manok; fried chicken neck, batikulon and head; lukon; sinugbang kitong; ginamos turnos; moist chocolate cake, Coke/Sprite   

Mangita na ko'g laing trabaho kay kaming mga kargador sa pier makulban man gyud og kaldero, he he. Wala nay barkong mobiyahe gika'g Cebu padung Tubigon.

Classification of municipalities in Bohol based on income of their repective LGUs:

Less than ten (10) municipalities belong to the First to Third Class level of income.

First Class: Talibon, Ubay and Tubigon
Second Class: Loon, Carmen, Inabanga
Third Class: Trinidad, etc.

The rest are fourth and fifth class. Panglao, despite the tourism boom thereat, remains a fourth class municipality.

Even sa last three elections, bisag og dili partymates ang mga Lopez/Relampagos ug si Chatto, midaug gihapon ang naulahi sa Loon, with very wide margins at that.

To be humble. And to learn from other people. Sometimes we need other people to remind us of our limitations.

There is a similar thread: "The Tagalog Invasion of our Binisaya" where this topic is well discussed.

Officially, since Chatto is on the Administration ticket, he will not be supporting Rene or Yul, both of whom are on the opposition side. Chatto, however, is already assured of winning in vote-rich Loon not because of his Loon connection (Pureza, and an aunt who married a Relampagos), but because his influence is deeply rooted in the town's barangays owing to the many projects thereat that he had supported financially from his pork barrel. Chatto will eventually become governor of Bohol, and he will remain generous to Loon even if the town's leaders are not of the Administration.

GASPS AS OBAMA AWARDED NOBEL PEACE PRIZE

By Karl Ritter and Matt Moore, Associated Press
October 9, 2009; 6:04 pm ET

OSLO â€" The announcement drew gasps of surprise and cries of too much, too soon. Yet President Barack Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize on Friday because the judges found his promise of disarmament and diplomacy too good to ignore.

The five-member Norwegian Nobel Committee â€" four of whom spoke to The Associated Press, said awarding Obama the peace prize could be seen as an early vote of confidence intended to build global support for the policies of his young administration.

They lauded the change in global mood wrought by Obama's calls for peace and cooperation, and praised his pledges to reduce the world stock of nuclear arms, ease U.S. conflicts with Muslim nations and strengthen its role in combating climate change.

"Some people say â€" and I understand it â€" 'Isn't it premature? Too early?' Well, I'd say then that it could be too late to respond three years from now," Thorbjoern Jagland, chairman of the Norwegian Nobel Committee, told the AP. "It is now that we have the opportunity to respond â€" all of us."

Jagland said the committee whittled down a record pool of 205 nominations and had "several candidates until the last minute," but it became more obvious that "we couldn't get around these deep changes that are taking place" under Obama.

Obama said he was surprised and deeply humbled by the honor, and planned to travel to Oslo in December to accept the prize.

"Let me be clear: I do not view it as a recognition of my own accomplishments, but rather as an affirmation of American leadership on behalf of aspirations held by people in all nations," he said at the White House. "To be honest, I do not feel that I deserve to be in the company of so many of the transformative figures who've been honored by this prize."
Obama will donate the $1.4 million cash award that comes with the prize to charity.

Archbishop Desmond Tutu of South Africa, who won the prize in 1984, said the decision showed that great things are expected from Obama and "wonderful recognition" of his effort to reach out to the Arab world after years of hostility.

"It is an award that speaks to the promise of President Obama's message of hope," Tutu said.

Many were shocked by the unexpected choice so early in a presidency that began less than two weeks before the Feb. 1 nomination deadline for the prize and has yet to yield concrete achievements in peacemaking.

"So soon? Too early. He has no contribution so far. He is only beginning to act," said former Polish President Lech Walesa, who won the peace prize in 1983.

Some around the world objected to the choice of Obama, who still oversees wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and has launched deadly counterterrorism strikes in Pakistan and Somalia.
Jagland told AP that while the war in Afghanistan was a concern, the Obama administration "immediately started to reassess the strategy."

"That itself is important, because when something goes wrong, then you need to ask yourself why is it going wrong," he said.

Obama said he was working to end the war in Iraq and "to confront a ruthless adversary that directly threatens the American people and our allies" in Afghanistan, where he is seriously considering increasing the number of U.S. troops on the ground and asking for help from others as the war enters its ninth year.

Taliban spokesman Qari Yousef Ahmadi in Afghanistan condemned the Nobel committee's decision, saying Obama had only escalated the war and had "the blood of the Afghan people on his hands."

Iranian Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki called the Nobel decision "hasty."
"The appropriate time for awarding such a prize is when foreign military forces leave Iraq and Afghanistan and when one stands by the rights of the oppressed Palestinian people," he was quoted as saying by the Mehr news agency.

Aagot Valle, a lawmaker for the Socialist Left party who joined the Nobel committee this year, said she hoped the selection would be viewed as "support and a commitment for Obama."

"And I hope it will be an inspiration for all those that work with nuclear disarmament and disarmament," she told AP in a rare interview. Members of the committee usually speak only through its chairman.

The peace prize was created partly to encourage ongoing peace efforts, but Obama's efforts are at far earlier stages than those of past winners, and the committee acknowledged they may not bear fruit at all.

"If everything goes wrong, then one cannot say that this was because of Barack Obama," Jagland said. "It could be that it is because of us, all the others, that didn't respond. But I cannot exclude that Barack Obama also can contribute to the eventual failure."

In Europe and much of the world, Obama is praised for bringing the U.S. closer to mainstream global thinking on such issues as climate change and multilateralism. A 25-nation poll of 27,000 people released in July by the Pew Global Attitudes Project found double-digit boosts to the percentage of people viewing the U.S. favorably in countries around the world. That indicator had plunged across the world under President George W. Bush.

The award appeared to be at least partly a slap at Bush from a committee that harshly criticized Obama's predecessor for his largely unilateral military action in the wake of the Sept. 11 terror attacks.

"Those who were in support of Bush in his belief in war solving problems, on rearmament, and that nuclear weapons play an important role ... probably won't be happy," said Valle.
At home, the picture is more complicated. Obama is often criticized by his political opponents as he attempts to carry out his agenda â€" from government spending to health care to Afghanistan.

Republican Party Chairman Michael Steele said Obama won because of his "star power" rather than meaningful accomplishments.

"The real question Americans are asking is, 'What has President Obama actually accomplished?'" Steele said.

Drawing criticism from some on the left, Obama has been slow to bring troops home from Iraq and the real end of the U.S. military presence there won't come until at least 2012.
The Nobel committee said it paid special attention to Obama's vision of a nuclear-free world, laid out in a speech in Prague and in April and at the United Nations last month.
Former Peace Prize winner Mohamed ElBaradei, director general of the International Atomic Energy Agency in Vienna, said Obama has already provided outstanding leadership on nuclear non-proliferation.

"He has shown an unshakable commitment to diplomacy, mutual respect and dialogue as the best means of resolving conflicts," ElBaradei said.

In July talks in Moscow, Obama and Russian President Dmitry Medvedev agreed that their negotiators would work out a new limit on delivery vehicles for nuclear warheads of between 500 and 1,100. They also agreed that warhead limits would be reduced from the current range of 1,700-2,200 to as low as 1,500. The U.S. now has about 2,200 such warheads, compared to about 2,800 for the Russians.

There has been no word on whether either side has started to act on the reductions.
Obama also has tried to restart stalled Mideast talks with no progress yet reported.
In the Gaza Strip, leaders of the radical Hamas movement said they had heard Obama's speeches on better relations with the Islamic world but had not been moved.

"We are in need of actions, not sayings," Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh said. "If there is no fundamental and true change in American policies toward the acknowledgment of the rights of the Palestinian people, I think this prize won't move us forward or backward."

Obama has said that battling climate change is a priority. Yet the U.S. seems likely to head into crucial international negotiations set for Copenhagen in December with Obama-backed legislation still stalled in Congress.

Unlike the other Nobel Prizes, which are awarded by Swedish institutions, the peace prize is given out by the five-member committee elected by the Norwegian Parliament. Like the Parliament, the panel has a leftist slant, with three members elected by left-of-center parties and two right-of-center members. Jagland said the decision to honor Obama was unanimous.

The secretive committee declined to say who nominated Obama. In Nobel tradition, nominations are kept secret for 50 years, unless those making the submissions go public about their picks. This year's nominations included Colombian activist Piedad Cordoba, Afghan woman's rights activist Simi Samar and Denis Mukwege, a physician in war-torn Congo who opened a clinic to help rape victims.

Nominators for the prize are broad and include former laureates; current and former members of the committee and their staff; members of national governments and legislatures; university professors of law, theology, social sciences, history and philosophy; leaders of peace research and foreign affairs institutes; and members of international courts of law.

Obama is the third sitting U.S. president to win the award: President Theodore Roosevelt won in 1906 and President Woodrow Wilson was awarded the prize in 1919.

In his 1895 will, Alfred Nobel stipulated that the peace prize should go "to the person who shall have done the most or the best work for fraternity between the nations and the abolition or reduction of standing armies and the formation and spreading of peace congresses."

A Boholano in Mr. International Philippines contest

Sixteen macho guys are competing for 2009 Mister International Philippines with grand finals on Oct. 14, 8 p.m., at the A Venue Mall (7829 Makati Avenue, Makati City).
Adbul Wallace, the Boholano representative, loves the bees and the flowers. The entrepreneur, towering at 6’ and weighing 165 lbs. (waistline is 32”, size of briefs is medium and shoe size is 10.5), is the son of Bohol’s Queen Bee, Vicky Wallace, owner-manager of Bee Farm.

Obviously, siyay midaug. Kay kon di, mosulod gyud ko sa youtube og mangaway, ha ha ha. Kinanindotan. Recommended (ang kini nga matang sa ad, dili ang Pantene, he he).

Sa didto pa ko sa Baybay, Leyte, akong nadunggan ang word "bilyon" to refer to persons nga naluag ang roska. Pwede pud in this sense: "Bilyona nimo, oi." (Buanga nimo, oi.)
