   The Department of Transportation and Communications (DOTC) awarded on 30 September 2013 infrastructure contracts for the execution of various civil works at four (4) airports in the Visayas and Mindanao.

“This will improve passenger convenience by allowing the airport to meet increasing tourist arrivals in the meantime that long-term upgrades are being done,” said DOTC Spokesperson Migs Sagcal. “We are aiming for this to be up by summer next year.”
Other improvement contracts were also awarded for the following projects:

The Dipolog Airport Development Project was awarded to V.T. Lao Construction in the amount of P 26,695,751.89. The bid ceiling was originally set at P 34,256,439.56. The project involves the construction of river protection and runway strip grade correction.

Caritas Manila's 60th Year: Buy and Give Expo At Trinoma!

    
     It's beter to give than to receive, is what i've learned after attending Caritas bloggers event, October 7, 2013 at Pandacan Manila.

    And for 60 years now, Caritas Manila is doing just that, helping the poor and marginalize, through education, livelihood training and other programs, that would empower them towards total human development, to build a caring and sharing communities amongst all, just as what Christ have exemplified with love and justice.

    And this coming November 29 up to December 1, they will hold its anniversary expo in the activity center of Ayala Trinoma Mall in Quezon City.

 Celebrating 60 Years of Living Faith in its Social Mission, this year’s anniversary expo will feature and showcase products made by social entrepreneurs via Caritas Manila’s own social enterprise: Caritas Margins and Segunda Mana.
  This event aims to raise funds to help sustain the pro-poor programs of Caritas Manila. The products sold in the BUY and GIVE EXPO are made by the poor communities and from the marginalized sector currently being supported by Caritas Manila. Art pieces are made by residents from National Bilibid Prison, gift items, accessories, and personal care products made by urban poor families, pre-loved items and inventories from our benefactors and corporate partners are just some of the products showcased in this Expo.

  Dubbed as BUY and GIVE because for every product you BUY, you actually GIVE to someone in need. These are the 3 ways: 1st – the item one buys gives income to the producer of the product from the poor community/marginalized sector; 2nd – part of the revenues will be plowed back to help sustain Caritas Manila’s pro-poor programs, specifically on Skills and Livelihood Training and Youth Servant Leadership and Education Programs; and 3rd – buying the product is giving to oneself or for someone else to appreciate.


Good finds at reasonable prices and helping uplift other peoples’ lives…come to Caritas Manila’s BUY & GIVE EXPO.

UNICEF Kicks Off Trick-or-Treat Nationwide Year 2 Celebrating National Children’s Month!




   The Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF Superheroes campaign brings special meaning to Halloween by giving children an opportunity to learn the value of helping other children in need.  Instead of asking for candies and treats, children can collect money in a special Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF box.  This year’s Trick-or-Treat focuses on children affected by the conflict in Zamboanga. The funds raised will help them go back to school, give them access to safe drinking water and sanitation facilities, and ensure their good health and nutritional status.

   “UNICEF relies entirely on voluntary donations to fund its work for children in the Philippines and worldwide.  With Toy Kingdom’s support, we hope to raise more funds and awareness on how children can help other children in Zamboanga through Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF.  The situation in Zamboanga profoundly affected a large number of children so every contribution counts and everyone can do something to help,” said UNICEF Country Representative Tomoo Hozumi.

   The grand launch party held in SM Megamall Event Center on October 5 featured fun games, superhero appearances and a special performance by UNICEF National Ambassador Gary Valenciano.

             

   Dubbed as the original Kids Helping Kids® campaign, Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF is celebrated by many children and families around the world and has since raised more than $170 million to help children in need globally. Launched in the Philippines last year, the program raised over P400,000 and distributed over 4,000 donation kits in malls and participating schools.

  Register for your free Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF donation kits at all Toy Kingdom branches nationwide from October 1 to 31 or until supplies last.  All donations can be turned over to any SM Bill Payment counter (SM Department Store, SM Supermarket, SM Hypermarket, and Savemore) nationwide.  Children and families who turn in their donations before November 30 will receive a certificate of appreciation and surprise gift via mail!

  Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF 2013 is made possible through Toy Kingdom, SM Megamall, SM Supermalls, SM Cares, Philippine Star, Summit Media, MagnaVision, Media Pool, Sumo Sam and Krispy Kreme. Participating Toy Kingdom branches include SM Aura, SM Bacolod, SM Bacoor, SM Baguio, SM Batangas, SM Cagayan de Oro, SM Cebu, SM Davao, SM Fairview, SM General Santos, SM Lanang, SM Iloilo, SM Lucena, SM Makati, SM Marilao, SM Megamall, SM Mall of Asia, SM Pampanga, SM North Edsa, The Podium, SM Southmall, V-Mall and Lucky Chinatown Mall.

Gloc-9 rises with “Magda” from Liham at Lihim

      We might say that Pinoy rap is going through a revival. What we must know is how different Gloc-9's kind of rap remains, regardless.

     At the heart of Gloc-9's icon is the fact of his creativity. This is a rapper who dares writes songs from nation, trailing an eye on the things we fail to see, listening to words no one else hears.
            
    If the first single off his new album Liham at Lihim is any indication, then Gloc-9 has again raised the bar for songwriting in general, Pinoy rap in particular.

    A collaboration with rock icon Rico Blanco, “Magda” is Gloc-9's storytelling at its best. For one thing, he doesn't take on the persona of Magda; instead he speaks as Ernesto, telling the story of Magda – the little of it that he knows. For another, Magda's story doesn't unfold easily, where many things are left unsaid, and much of what is truth happens in a letter. This is also why Gloc-9 thinks “Magda” the best choice for a carrier single, given the CD's title.

So if currency is based on what we as people value then why not value people, hence the barter system= problem solved do away with the monetary system entirely as Gene Roddenberry imagined as human potential, no money= no poverty, no want = no need, every person contributes to society, and can focus on personal development not just scraping buy and paying bills.

If you have never studied economics, this really is a must watch, to understand why our money, and banking systems are bogus

Jay Be · Design Software Engineer at Concur Technologies
The monetary system, is a scam, a fraud, a Ponzi scheme doomed to collapse in the near futur!
Private and central banks create money out of thin air. They only create what we call the "principal" but not the interests that need to be paid back as well! So it's mathematically impossible for everybody to pay back all their debts.
That's why the banks have to keep printing money over and over again, to cover the loans already existing the money system! 
If they stop printing money the system will collapse because they won't be enough money in circulation.
If they keep printing money as they've been doing, they will continue to devalue the currency, eventually the currency will collapse and will follow hyperinflation + runaway prices. Printing more money will only make the situation worse!
If you look back at history, the Roman empire collapsed exactly the same way... They debased their currency by minting coins with less silver in the coins, than the face value of the coins indicated.
At this point the only thing people can do to prepare the inevitable, is to get into things that have real value. Fiat currency worth nothing.

.....Just do the math here, the video talks about how the current (all) central (FED) banking systems are corrupt, a ponzi scheme on steroids, leading to wars, deaths, and a TOTAL enslavement into debt. BUT IT DOES NOT CALL FOR ANY ARRESTS, or anyone to face charges for the corruption, OR AN IMMEDIATE CLOSE DOWN OF THE PONZI SCHEME, that as I type here is KILLING AND DESTROYING OUR NATIONS, OUR SOCIETIES, OUR LIVES.. ??? These criminals are murders, and what, we are just suppose to evolve their current rancid criminal system into a global version that will be more "fair".. ARE YOU F'NIG KIDDING ME.. WE CAN'T BE THIS IDIOT GULLIBLE!! this DUMBED DOWN STUPID!!

It's All In The Cell And Enzacta!


     I have had the chance to learn about this important things on stem cells, at Enzacta. It sort of overwhelmed me, when the speaker Mr. Rod Brozas talk about as to how pollutions and its growing danger threatens us everyday, that causes a lot of known and unknown diseases and deaths. We cannot escape these reality and facts.


     And Its enlightening to know that there are people who are researching and discovering as to why and how diseases came to be and what needs to be done to overcome them. Thus, coming up with products that could help us face up our problems in more ways than one, not just health.

    Mr Rod says that it’s all in the cells. And each to his/her own cells or DNA. Multi organ management vs. one cellular recovery. Find more here:

           

     At the event we were given, Alfa energy drink, coffee, grape juice, and Hfi tablet. Aamazing how just with one HFI tablet I took before sleep, when I wake up the following morning, felt my body was cleansed and energized. At my age now, I know ive some diseases which could been result of my bad lifestyle when I was still young and dont know much. That energy Ive got and experience after I drink the Alfa energy drink and HFI tablet, reminds me of  my younger days then, full of zest.  And im just thankful to have known these products to avoid spending so much on hospitals and medicines, and extend  life with purpose and quality.

     Would definitely share this to my love ones.

     As the Bible says in Hosea 4:6; People perish for lack of knowledge.
