Psalm 38:15-22 NIV

2011-07-11T14:23:00.002+08:00

When small things became big, my little jokes (to those I thought are my friends?) became a problem. When you thought friends put the blame on you... what will you do?
well what can I say but meditate on this verse.

¹⁵ LORD, I wait for you;
you will answer, Lord my God.
¹⁶ For I said, “Do not let them gloat
or exalt themselves over me when my feet slip.”

¹⁷ For I am about to fall,
and my pain is ever with me.
¹⁸ I confess my iniquity;
I am troubled by my sin.
¹⁹ Many have become my enemies without cause^[a];
those who hate me without reason are numerous.

²⁰ Those who repay my good with evil
lodge accusations against me,
though I seek only to do what is good.

²¹ LORD, do not forsake me;
do not be far from me, my God.
²² Come quickly to help me,
my Lord and my Savior.

Old Vienna Rudolf Golez Concert in Davao City

2011-02-26T18:35:00.002+08:00

Being a classical piano player, and learned about Franz Liszt during my childhood years when I was still studying at Fernandez Piano School. I started when I was only 5 years old, stopped my lessons when the school closed, but continued after 5 years - tutorial lessons at home from a student who also graduated from the said school. If I remember it right I call her Ms. Cadeleñia (not sure if I spelled the surname right because that was more than 10 years ago) stopped my lessons with her when I was 17 after finishing the orange piano book. She told me to continue learning and practice everyday I did, and can play tango "La Cumparsita", Für Elise-Bethoven, and favorite piano pieces I mostly played are from the modern classical composer Richard Clayderman.

Our piano got damage due to too much flood in our house and then I stopped playing the piano when I was 22. Wasn't able to practice everyday anymore because I started learning Dbase III plus from my dad, and all other database programming languages. And also I was fascinated with the Internet that time and so many new things happen in my life like started to help my dad with his computer tasks.
And so forth till I was learning website developing. Then I started college upto the time I graduated -wasn't able to play the piano, oh! I never played the piano for more than 7 years straight upto now I don't have any proper practice because our piano is still damage.

My goal is to repair our piano get back and recall all the moments when I can play the fast running pace of fortessimo, allegro and vivance.

God do give us the talent we take good care and needed in our life. And if we don't use it wisely God will take it out of us. Though in my case not completely, because I'm using my musical talents now in worship band. And I can read piano notes and understand the pitch, tone timing and beat. But my hands can't play the piano and guitar as I used to do.

These days I'm into drums and backup singer. In our band, you can never be a lead singer while doing drums uhmm I haven't heard someone has done it. (Though may be. . . is it possible do the drums and lead singer? (^_^)

Anyway here is my recorded Rudolf Golez concert:

2011-01-07T08:30:00.003+08:00

The seventh day of this year. Number seven (7) is always significant in the Bible, and mentioned many times from Genesis to Revelation. In Genesis; God created the world . . . and on the seventh day He rested. . . Exodus; Remember the Sabbath day (7th day) and keep it Holy. . . 70 weeks was mentioned in Daniel 9:24. . .

The 7 churches in Revelation (Ephesus - loveless church, Smyrna - persecuted church, Pergamos - compromising church, Thyatira - corrupt church, Sardis - dead church, Philadelphia - faithful church, Laodiceans - lukewarm church) now which church are you in?. . . and number 7777 or is it 777? was also mentioned in the Bible, do you know where it is? (^_^)

Man! Am I keeping this day so Holy that I'm not working?

2010-02-14T22:46:00.002+08:00

The moment I wake up... before I put on my make-up... I have my devotion for you Oh Lord God (^_^)

I never expected to be this happy on 2010 Valentines, I already had my mind fix that every valentines is always been lonely day for me (it has been 5 years for me without someone special for valentines) But before the year 2009 ends, my heart was only filled with the Love for Christ.

And so, I prayed "wherever you lead me Lord I'm going to spend my Valentines with you! Jesus will be my date!"

oh yeah! I had the most wonderful Valentines in my life

You Never Let Go by Matt Redman

2010-02-02T15:47:00.007+08:00

The song that I can't get off my mind, why? because it was the first time it was being delivered on Calvary Chapel Davao and so timing I was the backup singer, then I wasn't prepared to know the pitch of this song and ... there... (I didn't sing close to the microphone)
Now, I'm trying to familiarize ... so here it is (^_^) Just continue reading and you will see the video.

You Never Let by Matt Redman

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
Your perfect love is casting out fear
And even when I'm caught in the middle of the storms of this life
I won't turn back
I know you are near

And I will fear no evil
For my God is with me
And if my God is with me
Whom then shall I fear?
Whom then shall I fear?

Oh no, You never let go
Through the calm and through the storm
Oh no, You never let go
In every high and every low
Oh no, You never let go
Lord, You never let go of me

And I can see a light that is coming for the heart that holds on
A glorious light beyond all compare
And there will be an end to these troubles
But until that day comes
We'll live to know You here on the earth

And I will fear no evil
For my God is with me
And if my God is with me
Whom then shall I fear?
Whom then shall I fear?

Oh no, You never let go
Through the calm and through the storm
Oh no, You never let go
In every high and every low
Oh no, You never let go
Lord, You never let go of me
You keep on loving and you never let go

Oh no, You never let go
Through the calm and through the storm
Oh no, You never let go
In every high and every low
Oh no, You never let go
Lord, You never let go of me

Yes, I can see a light that is coming for the heart that holds on
And there will be an end to these troubles
But until that day comes
Still I will praise You, still I will praise You...
...I can see a light...

Oh no, You never let go
Through the calm and through the storm
Oh no, You never let go
In every high and every low
Oh no, You never let go
Lord, You never let go of me...
So strong, so wise, so loving God...

How to let Go and Let God Take Control

2009-12-29T08:06:00.003+08:00

Sweet words are easy to say,
Sweet things are easy to buy,
But sweet people are difficult to find.

Life ends when you stop dreaming,
Hope ends when you stop believing,
Love ends when you stop crying,
And friendship ends when you stop sharing.

To love without condition
To talk without intention
To give without reason
And to care without expectation.

As my Christians friends would say there is no coincidence with God. I finally meditate to completely let go of my special feelings with someone whom I still really care. Every time I remember to pray for him I would divert my prayers to "please God let me just completely forget everything and I do not want to feel anything special help me Lord to completely forget". And that message I received to one of my friends. It spoke to me on how I'm trying hard to Let Go of all the loving feelings.

Pain Killer or placebo effect?

2009-09-28T15:27:00.006+08:00

I was searching for painkillers on the Internet and I found one testimony that stated Biogesic or Paracetamol plus caffeine combined is very effective for headaches and body pains. And so, I tried it to believe it and it works (^_^) here are my research for biogesic + caffeine:

Biogesic or Paracetamol = For the relief of minor aches and pains such as headache, backache, menstrual cramps, muscular aches, minor arthritis pain, toothache, and pain associated with the common cold and flu; and fever reduction.
source: http://www.unilab.com.ph/consumer/products_details.asp?eee=650

Caffeine = Restoring mental alertness or wakefulness if you are experiencing fatigue or drowsiness. It may also be used for other conditions as determined by your doctor.

Caffeine is a central nervous system stimulant. It works by stimulating the brain.
source: http://www.drugs.com/cdi/caffeine.html

But, my officemate couldn't believe it and she said that it was placebo effect, hmmm what is placebo effect really?

"The physician's belief in the treatment and the patient's faith in the physician exert a mutually reinforcing effect; the result is a powerful remedy that is almost guaranteed to produce an improvement and sometimes a cure." -- Petr Skrabanek and James McCormick, Follies and Fallacies in Medicine, p. 13.

Now, “placebo effect” is the infinite, visible, or felt improvement in health not because to a medication treatment that has been given.

A placebo (Latin for "I shall please") is a pharmacologically inert substance (such as saline solution or a starch tablet) that produces an effect similar to what would be expected of a pharmacologically active substance (such as an antibiotic).
By extension, "fake" surgery and "fake" therapies are considered placebos.

Well as I said, tried it yourself to believe it too (^_^)

Sept 7 and Sept 21 declared non-working holidays

2009-09-07T09:38:00.004+08:00

Holidays are always a very good news for us employees (^_^) not only do we get some chance to rest we can have 30% additional pay if we do work on Holiday!

And here are news from ABS-CBN:

MANILA - President Arroyo on Friday declared September 7 and 21 as non-working holidays throughout the country.

In a press statement, Malacañang declared September 7 as a national day of mourning for the late Iglesia ni Cristo (INC) leader Bro. Eraño 'Ka Erdie' Manalo. All flags will be flown at half mast on Monday.

The President had earlier declared September 21 as a non-working holiday to commemorate Eid Al Fitr or the end of Ramadan, the Islamic holy month of fasting.

INC spokesman Bienvenido Santiago on Friday announced that "the interment of the late Brother Eraño G. Manalo, Executive Minister of the Church of Christ, will be held on September 7, 2009, Monday, 12:00 noon at the Tabernacle located near the Central Temple."

Santiago said the interment will be held "while awaiting the construction of the mausoleum to which his remains will be transferred."

He said the mausoleum will be built near the monument of the Ka Erdie's father, Felix Manalo, "also within the grounds of the Iglesia ni Cristo Central Complex."

The Philippine Air Lines (PAL) on Friday announced it was offering special discounted tickets for INC members abroad who will be paying their respects to Manalo. PAL Chairman Lucio Tan also paid his last respects to Manalo.

"Upon instructions of our Chairman Dr. Lucio Tan, PAL is offering special discounted ticket prices to INC members who may wish to come home. This is PAL's modest way of showing respect and camaraderie with millions of INC members worldwide who are mourning Ka Erdy's passing," PAL President Jaime J. Bautista said.

source: http://www.abs-cbnnews.com/nation/09/04/09/sept-7-21-declared-non-working-holidays

Now I'm quite confuse, in September 7, 2009 today is this a double pay or just 30% additional?
as said in the news it is really like end of Ramadhan no work and if you work double pay?
hmmm your insights are very helpful.

The Ultimate Gift

2009-08-31T21:10:00.007+08:00

I just finished reviewing the DVD movie titled "The Ultimate Gift" Based on the novel by Jim Stovall.

The DVD was a Birthday gift of Ate Sherry to Virma.

Anyway, to summarize: the moral lesson of the story is to know the value of the 12-gifts these are the gift of work, money, friends, gift of problems, family, learning, laughter, gift of dreams, giving, gratitude, the gift of a day, and the gift of love.

With an all-star cast that includes Academy Award nominee Abigail Breslin / James Garner and Brian Dennehy, this engaging, heart warming drama won the 2006 Heartland Film Festival's Crystal Heart Award and received the Dove Foundation's seal approval.

Based on Jim Stovall's best-selling novel, The Ultimate Gift sends a young man of privilege on an improbable journey. Trust fund baby Jason Stevens (Drew Fuller) loves all life's gifts, as long as they're bankable. But when his wealthy grandfather, Red Stevens (Garner), dies, Jason receives a most unusual inheritance: twelve tasks, which Red calls "gifts", to challenge Jason to grow as a man. If he succeeds, the experience will not only change Jason forever, but he will discover the real meaning of wealth.

Share the Ultimate Gift and Change the World.
click continue to see the trailer...

It's the movie worth watching. Don't miss the gifts. (^_^)

Round Trip Davao to Cebu Flight Promo

2009-08-28T15:22:00.009+08:00

Just recently I was canvasing airplane flights between Cebu Pacific and Philippines Airlines (PAL) we were quite confuse about their respective promos, Cebu Pacific says 30% off but when I clicked the said promo it will asks a promo code at the site before you can avail. Where the heck will I find that promo code?

Now in PAL they also have this promo for Davao-Cebu-Davao flights total of 2,408 round trip (^_^)

The EconoLight in PAL offers 15-kgs. max baggage and it is more cheaper (2,408 round trip Davao-Cebu-Davao) than in Cebu Pacific 30% off which offers 7-kgs. max of baggage (2,428.37 round trip Davao-Cebu-Davao)

Here are the screenshot of the purchase and breakdown in Philippines Airlines (PAL):

And if you want the most cheapest Airlines? It's Zest Air which offer 1,916 for the round trip in Davao-Cebu-Davao Cash only no credit card none refundable, no change of flight date, no upgrade. Well all these "none and no" are actually the same in PAL EconoLight conditions except that you can use credit card in PAL.

Is God Good?

2009-07-19T15:04:00.004+08:00

You can say God is Good but why am I in this situation?

When Joseph (the dreamer) was in imprison he wonders Where is God?

But Joseph was model in the imprison and he runs the prison.

We ran to problems and basically our problems is running to God. We believe God is good and that is another problem. I believe God control our situation in life and challenge our whole faith in God and concept in Him.

A person look at the bad situation in their life and say God doesn't love me and God is not good. And they will judge God in their insufficient data.

Our problem is that we can not see tomorrow and we are in this chapter "I'm miserable" and God is not good. Don't you know God has a plan and God has a purpose in your life. God is working in our life. And even now wait for the next chapter and see. He might work out.

What was Joseph secret?

He never loose faith in God. You may not understand our situation today you may go through the worse situation but God has perfect plan and you will be thankful you didn't jump out and close the book.

I'm so glad I put my trust in the Lord and my life is more blessed. My sorrow and happiness is through Jesus.

Aice first Nice Notes on Radio Ministry

2009-03-30T08:51:00.002+08:00

While I'm listening on the Calvary Chapel Radio Ministry I thought of making some few notes. Here goes...
People are drawn to Jesus to follow Him, He has the gladness, if you look to Him you would want to be more like Him. To have that kind of law to produce that kind of fruit, we have the opportunity to be like Him.

Jesus was presecuted because he healed people on sabbath day. He explained that's what my Father (God) do. He has His relationship with his Father and Reflection of the Father. Jesus explained to the high Priest "I just do what my father does. Things will go on on sabbath day. My father works therefore I work." The Jewish got angry because Jesus is not only working on sabbath day but making Himself equal to God. Continualy making himself equal to God. Jesus said "Barely I say unto you the son can't do anything except with the father"

We can't do anything without God.

Jesus was a son of Man who empty Himself and goes with God without sin that's why He can heal.

Year 2009 Expectations

2009-03-03T15:37:00.012+08:00

This year 2009 expectations hmmm... I told my blog mate I don't have any expectations... It's kinda hard for me to expect anymore when I already trained myself not because I learned from reading the Bible don't expect but to put thy trust in God so whatever may happen its God's will and not to put us too much hurt from not fulfilling our expectations.
To change the topic, since I'm joining The Big Mak Blog contest and it's a must to do the number 1 - writing about expectation for this year. . .

It is like Tamagochi but more colorful, not only can you let your pet eat, play but also buy (using Gold) things for your pet like dress, shirt, shoes and even house furnitures and more...

The picture herein is my pet Maximus now named BebehGandangReyna and her neighbor Lambing, whenever you let your pet visit neighbors and friends' house you will earn 20 to 10 gold coins and 5 experience points, and if you let your pet go to the stadium to play with other pets, upon winning you will earn 30 gold coins and 20 experience points.

Now back to the picture, can you guess who is sitting in the middle?

I was amused with this mystery hmmm...

By the way, if you want to gain more experience points to make your house grow bigger, play at the stadium or challenge other pets, and visit more houses over and over again.

Join Pet Society in Facebook and know who is this mystery sitter (^_^)

There are more in Pet Society that what I have mentioned here so just try it yourself. Visit facebook.com and setup an account if you don't have any, then find my profile copy paste this URL:

Barack Obama Inauguration

2009-01-21T16:22:00.004+08:00

Sunglasses with Portable TV

2009-01-08T15:17:00.006+08:00

Oh NICE!!! Now we can watch TV, play DVD and VCD in any positions even while walking galing noh! but these kind of gadgets is NEVER DRIVING Friendly so please don't use this while you're driving... Here is what I'm talking about...

The Vuzix’s Wrap 920AV high-tech sunglasses look like other video eyewear products. They can display video and play audio when plugged into a digital music player, portable DVD player or laptop (via S-Video port).

But the glasses also feature proprietary “quantum optics technology” that allows you to also see what’s in front of you. That way, you can keep an eye out for a friend without missing the latest episode of Dexter.

As with past Vuzix models, these twin high-resolution displays (640 x 480 pixels) also support 3-D video (sample content can be downloaded from the company’s website). An optional Bluetooth-based head-tracking sensor lets you experience virtual, augmented and mixed reality environments.
source: http://blogs.usatoday.com/technologylive/2009/01/walk-and-watch.html

Now who can ask for more?

I just realize the new technology are pampering people so much, I do hope that all these kind of gadgets are properly use and not abuse.

You can also see the smallest and lightest laptop these days click here na (^_^).
and also the amazing star wars toy: Training to become a Jedi "Will the Force be with you?"

From Avon I walked straight to Peoples Park and I was alone didn't know where's the entrance??? the first thing I saw was "EXIT" when I asked the guard he said it was on the other side! whew! walking... walking... whew!

Forms of Harassment

2008-12-15T18:11:00.006+08:00

I was wondering what are the forms of harassment, since I'm a lady maybe I can research more about sexual harassment... Here are my research so basically I copy paste some of my words here but not denying the fact where it came from...

The EEOA (Equal Employment Opportunity Act) put forth some guidelines in order to identify sexual harassment.
Under these guidelines there are two major forms of sexual harassment:

Quid Pro Quo – This Latin term literally means “something for something”. Under Quid Pro Quo, sexual harassment occurs when an employee (of any gender) must put up with sexual advances to protect or maintain their a) job b) promotion c) wage increase d) favorable performance evaluation.

Hostile Environment - Sometimes there isn’t a clear “exchange” of sexual favors for job security or promotion. That doesn’t mean that sexual harassment isn’t occurring. If a sexually demeaning and hostile work environment is created, that is also sexual harassment. Methods of creating a sexually demeaning work environment include repeated sexual comments, jokes, posters of nude women (or men), innuendo, and cat calls/shouting. Systematic sexual comments are discriminatory and create a hostile environment for workers.

The best steps to take to report sexual harassment are to tell your immediate supervisor and Human Resources (HR). In the case that the sexual harassment is perpetrated by your boss, go to their superior or straight to HR. If you are discouraged by your boss or HR to file a complaint, keep in mind that you have the right to file such a complaint and the corporation can be taken to court for refusing to address the situation.

“Prevention” is the most excellent tool to eradicate sexual harassment in the office. Employers are expected to take necessary steps in order to avoid sexual harassment from happening. Administration should evidently convey to every officemates/employees that sexual harassment will not be tolerated. They can do so by set up an effective complaint or grievance process and taking urgent and proper action when an employee complains.
Have you ever experienced sexual harassment? Did you successfully report it? Share your experiences and I hope this post has been beneficial & insightful.

James Roy First double date: Disaster Movie

2008-10-06T13:38:00.009+08:00

And so it was James first time to see a movie in Gaisano Mall and it was also his first date with Aubrey and Aice (gosh swerte niya noh (^_^)

what is this Disaster movie?
oh yes it was a true disaster and funny movie (na may pagka corny narin) wahahha!
kay James nalang kami nakatawa (^_^)
Here are our pictures and movie plot:

Directors: Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer

Writers (WGA):
Jason Friedberg (written by) &
Aaron Seltzer (written by)

Release Date:
24 September 2008 (Philippines) more

Genre: Comedy more

Tagline: Not another shallow Hollywood movie more

Plot:
Over the course of one evening, an unsuspecting group of twenty-somethings find themselves bombarded by a series of natural disasters and catastrophic events.
In DISASTER MOVIE, the filmmaking team behind the hits "Scary Movie," "Date Movie," "Epic Movie" and "Meet The Spartans" this time puts its unique, inimitable stamp on one of the biggest and most bloated movie genres of all time -- the disaster film. DISASTER MOVIE follows the comic misadventures of a group of ridiculously attractive twenty-somethings during one fateful night as they try to make their way to safety while every known natural disaster and catastrophic event -- asteroids, twisters, earthquakes, the works -- hits the city and their path as they try to solve a series of mysteries to end the rampant destruction. Taking aim at everything and everyone, from "Indiana Jones" and "Iron Man" to Amy Winehouse and "High School Musical," DISASTER MOVIE lampoons the blockbuster movie, pop culture icons and public figures along the way as Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer satirize everything as only they can.

ayan so kayo, if you want to relax and waste some money go ahead and watch this movie but I'm telling you its really not that good

The Feast of Ramadhan

2008-09-30T15:49:00.004+08:00

I was surprise this morning when I heard that tomorrow will be holiday... I wasn't watching any TV news lately so you can say I'm very behind everything ... happening in this world (Y_Y)
and so I research at the net since my curiosity got me eto na nga research2x sa net...

The Feast of Ramadan

Ramadan is an Islam celebration of honor and faith. To comprehend the said event it is important to be aware first about the origins of Islam.

The Prophet Muhammad (Mohammad, Mohammed) was born in Mecca in 570 A.D. When he was 40 years old, the Angel Gabriel appeared to him and told him he was called to become a messenger of God. She taught him the verses of the Holy Koran, the Holy book of Islam. In Arabia at that point in time, there was a belief in many Gods. Muhammad taught that there was only one God- Allah, which means God in Arabic. The word Muslim literally means “one who gives himself to God” in Arabic. Islam means “submission or obedience to God.”

source: http://www.bellaonline.com/articles/art38032.asp

Muslims do not eat pork, but other meats are allowed, and animals must be killed in a way painless.
The passage of the Holy Koran is that Allah is the creator of the world. Muslims should surrender to the willpower of Allah.

The Five Pillars of Islam (Arabic: أركان الإسلام) is the term given to the five duties incumbent on every Muslim. These duties are Shahadah(profession of faith), Salat (ritual prayer), Zakat (alms giving), Sawm (fasting during Ramadan), and Hajj (pilgrimage to Mecca). These five practices are essential to Sunni Islam. Shi'a Muslims subscribe to eight ritual practices which substantially overlap with the Five Pillars.[1] Twelvers have five fundamental beliefs which relates to Idahoan. [2]
The concept of five pillars is taken from the Hadith collections, notably those of Sahih Al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim. The Qur'an does not speak of five pillars, although one can find in it scattered references to their associated practices.

source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_Pillars_of_Islam

The Feast of Ramadan
Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islam calendar.

Muslims believe that is was during the month of Ramadan that Mohammed, the prophet, received the Quran from Allah (God). At the end of Ramadan, the Id-al-Fitr (eed-al-fit-er), or the Feast of the Fast Breaking, is celebrated. Eid means recurring happiness or festivity . Greetings of "Eid-Mubarak" or "a blessed Eid" are exchanged. A very important aspect of eid is the charity which all the Muslims are expected to extend to the needy. The first Eid of the year, is known as "Eid Al Fitr". Al Fitr literally means breaking of fast. Thus Eid Al Fitr is celebrated on the first day of Shawaal, the tenth month in the Muslim calendar, to mark the end of a month long fast during the month of Ramadan. It is considered unholy to fast on this day. It is also a day of forgetting old grudges and ill feelings towards other fellow men.

Calvary Chapel: My First Communion (9th Visit)

2008-09-04T08:43:00.004+08:00

Last night, I finally experienced my first communion with Calvary Chapel. I knew there was a communion every First Wednesday of the month but I'm not sure if I was eligible since am considering myself "a 2months old baby" within their service.
The topic last night was:

Don't Judge

from the old testament 1 Samuel 16, I was feeling dizzy while listening (I have no dinner yet) and it was already around 20:00 anyway I did feel tired but still I'm not weak.

here are the verses of the teachings for last night 1 Samuel 16:1-23

1 And the LORD said unto Samuel, How long wilt thou mourn for Saul, seeing I have rejected him from reigning over Israel? fill thine horn with oil, and go, I will send thee to Jesse the Bethlehemite: for I have provided me a king among his sons.

2 And Samuel said, How can I go? if Saul hear it, he will kill me. And the LORD said, Take an heifer with thee, and say, I am come to sacrifice to the LORD.

3 And call Jesse to the sacrifice, and I will shew thee what thou shalt do: and thou shalt anoint unto me him whom I name unto thee.

4 And Samuel did that which the LORD spake, and came to Bethlehem. And the elders of the town trembled at his coming, and said, Comest thou peaceably?

5 And he said, Peaceably: I am come to sacrifice unto the LORD: sanctify yourselves, and come with me to the sacrifice. And he sanctified Jesse and his sons, and called them to the sacrifice.

6 And it came to pass, when they were come, that he looked on Eliab, and said, Surely the LORD's anointed is before him.

7 But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart.

8 Then Jesse called Abinadab, and made him pass before Samuel. And he said, Neither hath the LORD chosen this.

9 Then Jesse made Shammah to pass by. And he said, Neither hath the LORD chosen this.

10 Again, Jesse made seven of his sons to pass before Samuel. And Samuel said unto Jesse, The LORD hath not chosen these.

11 And Samuel said unto Jesse, Are here all thy children? And he said, There remaineth yet the youngest, and, behold, he keepeth the sheep. And Samuel said unto Jesse, Send and fetch him: for we will not sit down till he come hither.

12 And he sent, and brought him in. Now he was ruddy, and withal of a beautiful countenance, and goodly to look to. And the LORD said, Arise, anoint him: for this is he.

13 Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brethren: and the Spirit of the LORD came upon David from that day forward. So Samuel rose up, and went to Ramah.

14 But the Spirit of the LORD departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from the LORD troubled him.

15 And Saul's servants said unto him, Behold now, an evil spirit from God troubleth thee.

16 Let our lord now command thy servants, which are before thee, to seek out a man, who is a cunning player on an harp: and it shall come to pass, when the evil spirit from God is upon thee, that he shall play with his hand, and thou shalt be well.

17 And Saul said unto his servants, Provide me now a man that can play well, and bring him to me.

18 Then answered one of the servants, and said, Behold, I have seen a son of Jesse the Bethlehemite, that is cunning in playing, and a mighty valiant man, and a man of war, and prudent in matters, and a comely person, and the LORD is with him.

19 Wherefore Saul sent messengers unto Jesse, and said, Send me David thy son, which is with the sheep.

20 And Jesse took an ass laden with bread, and a bottle of wine, and a kid, and sent them by David his son unto Saul.

21 And David came to Saul, and stood before him: and he loved him greatly; and he became his armourbearer.

22 And Saul sent to Jesse, saying, Let David, I pray thee, stand before me; for he hath found favour in my sight.

23 And it came to pass, when the evil spirit from God was upon Saul, that David took an harp, and played with his hand: so Saul was refreshed, and was well, and the evil spirit departed from him.

Pastor Ken Pascua also taught us not to judge even of what the person cover or actions.
If I can get the audio of his teaching I will post it here but so far these are all I can write as I'm still feeling dizzy and I need to get to work (^_^)

What is True Happiness?

2008-07-28T08:28:00.009+08:00

True happiness is not the nonexistence of pain, you cannot have a day after day of transparent skies. Genuine happiness lays in construction a self that stands majestic and determined. Contentment doesn’t mean having a life free of charge from all complexity by that whatever difficulties arise, without being traumatized in the least you can summon up the unflinching courage and conviction to fight and overcome them.

Psychology tell us that to be happy one must

have sense of worth example wag mong sirain sarili mo meaning take good care of your self

be in power on one’s life also means don't rely on being sad kasi nakita mo yung isang tao maiinis kana at masisira na araw mo, bakit siya ba may control sa buhay mo?

have an optimistic point of view always look on the brighter side rather than the bad side of anything... example narin dito yung mga kasamahan mo, don't always criticize but rather see the good side or better yet help them improve themselves if you can (^_^)

be dedicated to a righteous intention be a good example kung kaya mo kung hindi then just stay calm and relax but never doing the bad things

significant employment and amusement work like you're working with amusement waaa kaya mo yun? I was happy to find the work I want and amuse with the working environment

uphold permanent and loving relationships for me keep only positive relationships (^_^) throw away negative

Ultimate happiness is determine by the degree to which we established a solid self. This self is actually true self of one’s life.

I remember my second degree cousin told me her name is Sister Gilda Peñafiel,I memorize and understood it by heart here are the lines:

Isis Dearest,

Happiness is something created in our mind.
It is not something you searched and so seldom find.
It’s just waking up and beginning the day
By counting our blessings and kneeling to pray
It’s giving up wishing for things we have not
And making the best of whatever we’ve got
It’s knowing that life is determined for us,
And pursuing our tasks without fret, fume or fuss
For it’s by completing what God gives us to do
That we find real contentment and happiness too.

To share with you a beautiful thought that is already a part of me and which can be yours too. God Bless you. ~Sister Gilda, RVM (1998 Letter)

To everyone, happiness and contentment is the key to fountain of youth. Take it from me ~ Aice nice concepts (^_^)

What is Rebirth and Reincarnation?

2008-07-18T15:13:00.013+08:00

One of my officemates and I had a conversation about it this morning since I was early at work 6:50 due to my task in Database downloading anyway, his religion was Buddhism he opened to me what his religion is all about and I was just listening. It seem to me they believe in “what you are in the past is what makes you who you are now” so i asked “you believe in reincarnation then?” he said “no but it is rebirth” oh i see! Hmmm we argued a bit and i told him that rebirth and reincarnation are the same like synonyms... anyway since he was 7am to 4pm shift our conversation was cut.

So here are my research about our topic.

What is reincarnation?
According to Merriam Webster dictionary

Main Entry:
re·in·car·na·tion
Function:
noun
Date:
1845
1 a: the action of reincarnating : the state of being reincarnated b: rebirth in new bodies or forms of life; especially : a rebirth of a soul in a new human body
2: a fresh embodiment
source: http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/reincarnation

So basically I'm right it is the synonym of rebirth, but

What is rebirth?
Merriam Webster dictionary said again that:

Main Entry:
re·birth
Function:
noun
Date:
1837
1 a: a new or second birth : metempsychosis b: spiritual regeneration
2: renaissance, revival [a rebirth of nationalism]
source: http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/rebirth

hmm pano bah eto halos pareho bah or hindi?

In my opinion yes they are the same but I guess the meaning from his religion may be “not the same”.
This issue is not yet settled but I strongly believe in the Bible and its not written there about reincarnation although the point that “what we are before makes who we are now” i think its what you have chosen in the past like past decision and past mistakes that you should pay now or in the future.
Although in the past life is what makes you are now? Hmmm, ganito
have you ever wonder why you are angry with one person you just met? But you have not seen that person yet you don't have any "compatibility vibes" with the person?
Could it be that person was your enemy in the past?
Or how can you explain that strange feeling when you meet someone and seem "to like/love" him/her right away? Could it be you were mate in the past life?

Haha! (^_^) can you answer those?

Spending time with My Crush

2008-07-07T09:53:00.006+08:00

Don’t know why, all of the sudden, I wished to spend time with my Crush.

Actually, honestly, precisely, seriously …
what you see is what you get! Ahihih!

ok now…

Actually: I have 9 guys that I admire but only one of them is the most.

Honestly, two are in Luzon now but the other one reside here in Mindanao (we met tru blogging) I like the way he thinks, talks, and how he handles his career and life style. He is Good in web developing. And text me every now and then.
While the other one is from Luzon; we knew each other in one organization hindi ko nalang mention what org kasi parang obvious na kung sino eh (^_^) if you were reading my ice 9 web blogs from the beginning you won’t have hard time knowing who he is. He still text me every now and then.

Precisely, two are in Visayas: hmmm the other one I met thru mahiya ako ma buking! … pano kaya hmmm learning? Is a part of … eh…tion? Basta nasa Visayas siya ngayon (^_^)
the other one thru hmmm (madali kasi ma buking eh) lalo na sa mga close friends ko (^_~)
both of them have leadership qualities, one is excellent in computer while the other is not so good in computers but both of them has something that I really admire the most: their attitude, goal, the way he thinks of philosophy and determination in life.
the other one has serious lifestyle while the other one has very occupied lifestyle.

Seriously, five are here in Mindanao:
Ahihih! Lima talaga ano?
Well what can I say, I met so many good nice guys in my circle of friends but most of them are taken (Y_Y)
meaning may girl friend na pero single parin! Kung baga admiration nalang nothing more kapag taken na!
Four of them I met at my work place, (or five bah ^_^)
The other one is accidentally last year 2007 election time; while I was processing my papers after my graduation at the Sanguniang Panglungsod and I was looking for a job in government. Tapos may media pa noon it was ABS-CBN they were monitoring who won in the election. Ewan bakit ako napadaan doon sabi kasi doon pumunta eh, tapos he approached me asking am I looking for something? I said with a smile “yeah a job!”, he laugh and said “ok pass your resume to me I will help you find a job, you want in the government?” I replied “yes sir” he asked for CS exams, license etc… napakita ko TESDA kasi wala pa ako nag CS exam noon eh…

Anyway, I prayed to spend time with my crush.

Most of them, I have already spend time with… and aware now it will be just an admiration and nothing more “ kasi nga may girl friend eh Y_Y grrr good guys are always taken ”.

Only 5 left; (two in Mindanao, two in Visayas, one in Luzon) that I haven’t spend time with… I do not know if they are still single, available or NOT in a complicated relationship.

What a surprise my wish was granted I did spend time with my crush.
The Two guys who are in Mindanao (^_^)
I think if you really ask with all of your heart, your wish will be granted!

But unfortunately I found out thru spending time with them….
First was the other one, was IN a complicated relationship,
while the other one had a wife and kids (T_T) waaa!!!
both of them are taken (again! Wa!)

I will go details in the other one which has more impact because hmmm ewan basta!
He asked me out kasi before, the one I met accidentally, but I said I was busy, since I was really busy (being at night shift and I was the project manager at that time, I really had no time for going out except meeting with admin),
he calls at our house my mother will always answer and said I’m fast asleep kasi nga night shift. Sinasabi lang sa akin ni mama kapag nagising ako which is 6pm! “____ called sino yun?” so I will explain “oh I met him at ____....” wala lang sa akin that time because I know although he was on my crush list it was just an acquaintance call, may be involving me to a government activities which I had no time. He is one of the politician here in our City. There was one time he text me hiring to be his computer secretary, I was surprise didn’t he remember I told him I’m on night shift or maybe he just forgot kasi busy , so I replied “I'm already employed as web developer…”

I received a text from him from time to time but not regularly, I replied some of his text but not all kasi ayoko ma involve sa mga government activities

Then he asked around this month of July, “if we can see each other”, hmmm I finally gave him a chance since he is still on my crush list (^_^) and beside I’m not busy, the time was right, day shift after 5:00pm ok mag-kita.

We went to early dinner around 6pm, I was prepared for KKB ^_^,

Moving on and on , to cut my story short;
This time I guess it will be just friendship he is not on my crush list anymore Waaa! I don’t want to break one of the Ten Commandments “Thou shall not commit adultery”

What happen? Click niyo yung early Dinner date

There are still some guys left I haven’t spend time with personally that are on my crush list . Still wondering what it would be like? To really fall in love (having “personal” relationship)
Hoping one of them will be meant for me. My wishes… (dreams not yet real) .

I learned to open my eyes to all aspects, not only those on my Crush List.
It’s really annoying to be “drop dead” from excitement!

Diba tell me what you’re thinking … have you ever felt that way?

The Meaning of Trinity

2008-06-30T16:14:00.014+08:00

I have been waiting for to own an earrings with trinity design (^_^) (nan dito na yung image ng earrings)

Surprisingly, trinity wasn’t mention in any statements of the Bible, why?
Because it was the symbolism created that means: The Father, The Son and The Holy Ghost/Spirit in other words it was mention as “the father, the son and the holy ghost” not the word “trinity”. Trinity is three circles formation joint together it says that The Father can be the Son or the holy Ghost, but the holy Ghost can not be the Father nor the Son can be the Father. For illustration here is the picture [image source: wikipedia]

Here are my research:

The word "Trinity" came from Latin, Trinitas began to be used around the year 200. This Latin word means "three, a triad", from the abstract noun form the adjective trinus (three each, threefold, triple), like the word unitas is the abstract noun formed from unus (one).

The Greek term used for the Christian Trinity, "Τριάς" ("Trias", gen. "Triados") means "a set of three" or "the number three",[6] and has given the English word triad. The word "trinity" itself is not found in the Christian Bible, any more than is the word "monotheism", but Christians in general believe that what is meant by these two words is taught in the Bible.

The doctrine of the Trinity is the result of continuous exploration of the Bible by the church, argued in debate and treatises. The concept was expressed in early writings from the beginning of the second century forward.

The first recorded use of the word "Trinity" in Christian theology was in about AD 180 by Theophilus of Antioch who used the corresponding word in Greek (Τριάς) to refer to "the Trinity, of God, and His Word, and His wisdom", of which he considered the first three days of creation to be types.[8][9] He did not apply the word to the Trinity of Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

Neither of the words "Trinity" nor "Triunity" appear in the Old Testament or New Testament. Various passages from both have been cited as supporting this doctrine, while other passages are cited as opposing it.

The Old Testament refers to God's Word, his Spirit, and Wisdom. These have been interpreted as adumbrations of the doctrine of the Trinity, as have been also narratives such as the appearance of the three men to Abraham in Genesis 18. Some Church Fathers believed that a knowledge of the mystery was granted to the Prophets and saints of the Old Dispensation, and they identified the divine messenger of Genesis 16:7, 21:17, 31:11, Exodus 3:2, and Wisdom of the sapiential books with the Son, and "the spirit of the Lord" with the Holy Spirit. However, it is generally agreed that it would go beyond the intention and spirit of the Old Testament to correlate these notions directly with later Trinitarian doctrine.

The New Testament does not use the word "Τριάς" (Trinity) nor explicitly teach it, but provided the material on which the doctrine of the Trinity is based. It required reflection by the earliest Christians on the coming of Jesus Christ and of what they believed to be the presence and power of God among them, which they called the Holy Spirit; and it associated the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in such passages as the Great Commission: "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit" (Matthew 28:19) and Paul the Apostle"s blessing: "The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all" (2 Corinthians 13:14), while at the same time not contradicting the Jewish Shema Yisrael: "Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord" (Deuteronomy 6:4).

Now the I’m looking forward to have the trinity pendant. Ahihihi (^_^)

2008-05-20T09:14:00.021+08:00

Finally after 12-months of service the Eversun Software Philippines Corporation has celebrate its first year anniversary.
When I first started on Eversun Software Phils Corp we were only 5 employees, am originally assigned at night shift as web developer the office opened May 12, 2007 as Kuya Mike said but it was only to arrange the place for the official opening on May 15, 2007
Eversun Software Philippines Corporation anniversary is really on May 15, 2007 but we only celebrate it on May 17 Saturday so that every employees will be able to attend without office work.

I can remember on my first day am shock to see that we were only 5! yours truly, Cesar, Ate Gladys, Marites and Mark (actually 6 I remembered there was a writer Felixberto Tero but he only stayed on my first night then resigned afterwards) I started June 29, 2007 that was Friday (and the last day of Felixberto).

We had our first official night shift meeting July 2, 2007 and the attendee was us (five agents) and Ma'am Antonietta and Ma'am Merju our Branch Manager, we held it at Jollibee in the middle of the night around 12:00mn, Ma'am Ju told me in the meeting that I was her first hired agent during her term and that was the reasons for my double exams and interview, (I was given an exam with Ma'am Cora way back May 2007 from the previous Branch Manager) and also the policy "Trainee status" for one month will be implemented to me her first hired agent (malas ba or swerte?) and she also told us what the policies are, and who we're going to contact in case we have problems at night without their presence (Ma'am Ju and Ma'am Net) and to assist new incoming agents next next week.

So basically we were together the five of us for two weeks before Melissa, Micheal Wales, Elvie, Cliff and Wilmer came...

I have fun with my tasks as web developer, my first client let me develope a college packet website (USA State Universities) from the scratch, I did everything from designing of the site to the graphics i.e. header, logos and even the banner ads. Also during the night imagine it is very quiet [my only chat mate that time was Jehz my good friend also a web developer] I can remember how I kept on complaining to him and his girl friend, all the people here are so quiet, we barely even look at each other's face, not a single word was uttered for the whole night up to the sun rise!
They also kept on advising me "ganyan talaga kapag night shift kasi inaantok na mga tao masasanay ka din... sabi ko "hindi ako inaantok ha! curious lang ako may tao pa ba dito or baka mga robots etong kasama ko ayaw talaga magsalita eh work ng work!" (^_^)"

At the first week nobody was talking except me and Cesar. I can remember we were both given a warning to refrain from talking because since there was no radio, not a single noise except our conversation can disturb writers with us. (yan kasi bleh! pinalayo na tuloy seats namin ni Cesar, lisod man gud mag-share insights via chat you can't even see the website diba? hayz sige nalang)

Anyway, now we are 133 agents! wow imagine after one year 133 na kami weeiii! we celebrate it on the roof top of our office Diamond building along Matina, MacArthur HighWay Davao City branch (of course ^_^).

I was surprise I don't know all of the agents but basically kabisado ko mga pioneering employees day and night... Oh I was transfered at day shift on December 17, 2007 (kasi night PM ako noon and kailangan daw mag shift kami ni Melissa day PM) then until such time bumalik narin ako sa Web Developing, na miss ko talaga websites I was happy Ma'am Ju granted my request to be back on my usual tasks as web developer.

Then after some time the PM position was deleted, wala na daw Project Manager but they slice that position into two: Agent Supervisor (AS) and Client Relation Officer (CRO)
Medyo mahirap maging PM sa night kasi not only I supervise but am also the Trainor for all position of the new agents (Link Builder, Site Admin, Web master, web developer, graphic artist and Virtual assistant) as well as TechAdmin to troubleshoot the PC's and make sure the Internet is working properly and also talk to the clients for their complaints (between 6am to 7am because Iloilo admins are no longer around hayzz) I have so much experience in that span of four months handling 37 agents. sobrang dami akong natutunan not only did I saw their true colors (the ones that I thought are "my friends" who will understand and hopefully guide me) and also saw the "true meaning" to those I never thought "will be a true friend" to someone who needs help.

On the other hand, t'was a good thing nowadays our company has TechAdmin at night but that was after I became a day time Web Developer agent.

ok to cut my story...

basta Madaming nangyari sobrang dami...
from happiness to loneliness...

I guess those experiences are really part of every (companies') life cycle (up and down and turn it all around ^_^) ang saya noh!

Bloggers Unite for Human Rights 15th of May 2008

2008-05-15T01:00:00.008+08:00

Bloggers have freedom from liability for hosting speech the same way other web hosts do - We're working to strengthen Section 230 liability protections under the Communications Decency Act (CDA) while spreading the word that bloggers are entitled to them. (See Barrett v. Rosenthal.)
Bloggers have the right to political speech - We're working with a number of other public-interest organizations to ensure that the Federal Election Commission (FEC) doesn't gag bloggers' election-related speech. We argue that the FEC should adopt a presumption against the regulation of election-related speech by individuals on the Internet, and interpret the existing media exemption to apply to online media outlets that provide news reporting and commentary regarding an election -- including blogs. (See our joint comments to the FEC; [PDF, 332K].)

Bloggers can be journalists (and journalists can be bloggers) - We're battling for legal and institutional recognition that if you engage in journalism, you're a journalist, with all of the attendant rights, privileges, and protections. (See Apple v. Does.)

Bloggers are entitled to free speech - We're working to shield you from frivolous or abusive threats and lawsuits. Internet bullies shouldn't use copyright, libel, or other claims to chill your legitimate speech. (See OPG v. Diebold.)

Bloggers have the right to stay anonymous - We're continuing our battle to protect and preserve your constitutional right to anonymous speech online, including providing a guide to help you with strategies for keeping your identity private when you blog. (See How to Blog Safely (About Work or Anything Else).)

How to Blog Anonymously:

1. Use a Pseudonym and Don't Give Away Any Identifying Details
Also, if you are concerned about your colleagues finding out about your blog, do not blog while you are at work. Period. You could get in trouble for using company resources like an Internet connection to maintain your blog, and it will be very hard for you to argue that the blog is a work-related activity. It will also be much more difficult for you to hide your blogging from officemates and IT operators who observe traffic over the office network.

2. Use Anonymizing Technologies
There are a number of technical solutions for the blogger who wishes to remain anonymous.
Invisiblog.com is a service that offers anonymous blog hosting for free.
If you are worried that your blog-hosting service may be logging your unique IP address and thus tracking what computer you're blogging from, you can use the anonymous network Tor to edit your blog. Tor routes your Internet traffic through what's called an "overlay network" that hides your IP address. More importantly, Tor makes it difficult for snoops on the Internet to follow the path your data takes and trace it back to you.
For people who want something very user-friendly, Anonymizer.com offers a product called "Anonymous Surfing," which routes your Internet traffic through an anonymizing server and can hide your IP address from the services hosting your blog.

3. Use Ping Servers
If you want to protect your privacy while getting news out quickly, try using ping servers to broadcast your blog entry for you. Pingomatic http://www.pingomatic.com is a tool that allows you to do this by broadcasting to a lot of news venues at once, while making you untraceable. The program will send out notice (a "ping") about your blog entry to several blog search engines like Feedster and Technorati.

4. Limit Your Audience
Many blogging services, including LiveJournal, allow you to designate individual posts or your entire blog as available only to those who have the password, or to people whom you've designated as friends. If your blog's main goal is to communicate to friends and family, and you want to avoid any collateral damage to your privacy, consider using such a feature. If you host your own blog, you can also set it up to be password-protected, or to be visible only to people looking at it from certain computers.

5. Don't Be Googleable
If you want to exclude most major search engines like Google from including your blog in search results, you can create a special file that tells these search services to ignore your domain. The file is called robots.txt, or a Robots Text File. You can also use it to exclude search engines from gaining access to certain parts of your blog. If you don't know how to do this yourself, you can use the "Robots Text File Generator" tool for free at Web Tool Central . However, it's important to remember that search engines like Google may choose to ignore a robots.txt file, thus making your blog easily searchable. There are many tools and tricks for making your blog less searchable, without relying on robots.txt.

6. Register Your Domain Name Anonymously
Even if you don't give your real name or personal information in your blog, people can look up the WHOIS records for your domain name and find out who you are. If you don't want anyone to do this, consider registering your domain name anonymously. The Online Policy Group (OPG) offers privacy-protective domain name registration at https://www.onlinepolicy.org/forms/opg-domain-create.shtml

Bloggers Unite

2008-05-06T08:43:00.007+08:00

While the words might change from country to country and are sometimes taken for granted, human rights represent one of the universally agreed upon ideas — that all people are born with basic rights and freedoms that include life, liberty, and justice. This year marks the 60th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights adopted by the United Nations.

Bloggers Unite For Human Rights challenges bloggers everywhere to help elevate human rights by drawing attention to the challenges and successes of human rights issues on May 15. What those topics may include — the wrongful imprisonment of journalists covering assemblies, governments that ignore the plight of citizens, and censorship of the Internet. What is important is that on one day, thousands of bloggers unite and share their unified support of human rights everywhere.

Unexpected Holy Gift

2008-04-22T19:01:00.015+08:00

Yesterday, I go to the office as I usually do Monday to Friday but I have a special plan in the afternoon after work: to go at PCBS

and see the Holy Bible... it was the smallest Bible as they said and New King James version words of Christ in red with magnifier included, to my curiosity I wanted to see it for myself and may be buy it...and also yesterday was the coming back of Valerie Joy after her one week sick leave. As soon as I saw her I said "hey welcome back! where have you been?" so she explained she was on sick leave.

Now, around four O'clock in the afternoon (yesterday), Valerie Joy pop up on my YM chat and told me not to go home right away because she has something to give...
I reply, yeah!? what ano unsa? ^_^ with all the smiling face...
(I was thinking that it was just a joke or whatever ^_^)
then she replied with a smile...
and I replied to her "I'm really in a hurry to go out because I wanted to see the Bible in PCBS Bonifacio ..."
and you know what she replied to me at chat???

she got to my station and handed me something in blue plastic when I saw it and hold it I knew it was something special.. because it is like a book hard bound and heavy, so I thought "waaa ano eto Bible???" so I look at my back where she sat and said personally "hala Val ano eto? waaaa Bible ni siya?"
nagreply lang siya with a smile ^_^
I was so surprise that I really don't know what to say except "thank you" and nothing more (kasi hindi ko pa binuksan eh pa trilling effect kasi) tapos sabi ni Roy sa akin "ano yan? bigay ni Val?" sabi ko "oo" sabi niya "patingin nga" so I open it pero not to the extend to really open it all the way then Roy said "parang completo ata yan ha" sabi ko "anong completo meron pala hindi completo?" he just laugh a bit and said "lets go na".
Cesar was already there beside us and ask if we are coming with him "I though sa bigat ng dala ko ngayon yeah I surely need a ride" so i replied "yah! musabay gyud ko" ^_^ ...
then when I got home and open it to see the book (it was really heavy) it was not just a Holy Bible but a Quad Combination of LDS Holy Bible, Book of Mormon, Doctrine and Convenants and Pearl of Great Price...
wow!!! I felt so overwhelm and very surprise! I should have opened it at the office and tell her personally and let her see in my face how surprise I was.
So here it is I'm blogging it now to let her know Thank you so much Valerie ^_^
like what I said "mubawi lang gyud ko nimo sa ibon" ^_^ gets mo na yun divah ^_^

Divine Mercy, Jesus I Trust in You

2008-03-18T18:31:00.003+08:00

The Chaplet of the Divine Mercy is a Roman Catholic devotion based on the visions of Polish nun/saint, Sister Faustina Kowalska, known as the "Apostle of Mercy", 1905-1938.
According to Sister Faustina's visions, written in her diary, the chaplet's prayers for mercy are threefold: to obtain mercy, to trust in Christ's mercy, and to show mercy to others.
Sister Faustina's vision:
Jesus Christ promised that all who recite this chaplet at the hour of death or in the presence of the dying will receive great mercy. It consists of a series of prayers said with the aid of rosary beads. The chaplet may be said without beads, typically by counting prayers on the fingertips.
Jesus said, ".... When they say this Chaplet in the presence of the dying, I will stand between My Father and the dying not as the just judge but as the Merciful Savior".
Sister Faustina recounts in her diary that, in her vision, she saw an angel sent to a city to destroy it. Sister Faustina began to pray for God's mercy on the city and felt the strong presence of the Trinity. After she prayed the internally-instructed prayers, the angel was powerless to harm the city. In subsequent revelations, Sister Faustina learned that the prayers she spoke were to be taught to all the people of the world.
Jesus also promised that anything can be obtained with this prayer if it is compatible with His will. It is prayed daily at the National Shrine of The Divine Mercy in Stockbridge, MA.

To Roman Catholic tradition, the chaplet may be prayed at any time, but most effective on Divine Mercy Sunday and Fridays at 3:00 PM. In 2000, Pope John Paul II ordained the Sunday after Easter Divine Mercy Sunday, where Roman Catholics remember the institution of the Sacrament of Penance.

The hour Jesus died by crucifixion, 3:00 PM (15:00), is called the Hour of Mercy. In novena, the chaplet is usually said each of the nine days from Good Friday to Divine Mercy Sunday.

The chaplet is associated with a Polish image painted by Adolf Hyla. Hyla painted to the visions Sister Faustina. In the image, Jesus stands with a hand outstretched in blessing. The other hand clutches the side wounded by the spear, from which proceed beams of falling light. The words “Jesus I Trust in You” usually accompany the image (“Jezu Ufam Tobie” in Polish).

Sony Ericsson Sony W960i Reviews

2008-03-10T17:42:00.011+08:00

Sony Ericsson keeps wowing us with product after product.

Their latest flagship of technical prowess is the W960i. The Sony Ericsson W960i has all gadget lovers could giggle about... It has 3.2 mega pixel camera with autofocus, photo light, 8GB of internal storage, and all shoehorned into that slick exterior finish called “Black Vinyl. What a beauty! Now that Sony Ericsson W960i is already out in the market, i’m just wondering which is better, the P1 or the W960i. They’re almost identical in functionality but targets a different market of consumers.

Design

At the back, the soft-touch plastic gives the handset a smooth velvety feel. One just has to hold the P1i. The W960i feels lighter probably due to the plastic compared with the metallic finish on the P1i. The two devices have almost identical dimensions and weight, though the choice of materials used is different.

When we tilt the phone at an angle with the bottom edge toward us, the reflective coating of the numerals and letters on the keypad stands out significantly. The W960i is predominantly black with a white strip running around the sides, which reminds us of a penguin. It looks nice, but doesn't serve any practical purpose. We also noticed that the white backlighting on the keypad is uneven, with most of the light concentrated at the center column.

Above that is the 2.6-inch 240 x 320-pixel touchscreen LCD that is flush with the surface. The screen is protected by a layer of plastic, so you are not actually poking at the display. What we are more concerned with is the glossy vinyl black surface that catches smudges and facial oils.

There are three touch-sensitive music playback keys between the keypad and the LCD on the W960i. These are visible only when the Walkman player is active. Unlike the LG Prada phone which uses a capacitive display, meaning it could register finger strokes but not stylus input, we could use both methods to control the three music keys on the W960i.

Like we mentioned earlier, the W960i has near identical physical dimensions as the P1i, but the similarity doesn't end there. The two also share the same 208MHz processor and 128MB of RAM. More on the performance later.

One thing that left a bad aftertaste was the Back button at the front, which should have been at the side together with the jog dial. We couldn't find a better way to describe it other than that it kills the whole user experience. While we could still use one hand to operate the handset, our thumb has to move back and forth. That was counter-intuitive, occasionally awkward, and at times frustrating.

The W960i promises a lot as a music player, but unfortunately, isn't quite the complete package as we thought it could be. It doesn't have a built-in 2.5/3.5mm audio port. Perhaps we are used to having such an option, especially on some of the Nokia Nseries sets. We thought it's about time Sony Ericsson does some justice to its Walkman phones as well. That said, our review set comes with a 3.5mm adapter. We just didn't like the hassle of dealing with the extra length of cable.

The handset's menu is very similar to some of the touchscreen models we've seen like the M600i and P1i. The default user theme shows the Walkman player on the screen. That can be turned off if desired. Menu options that appear on the bottom of the 2.6-inch screen change according to the different settings. While we managed to get away with using our finger or thumb on the panel most of the time, typing a text message via the onscreen keyboard still requires a stylus. The latter is stowed away on the top left corner. Speaking of which, we wondered if Sony Ericsson could have bundled a more solid (metallic) stylus instead of a plastic one that looks like a steal at a bargain store.

Because there's no directional keypad or joystick on the W960i, navigating the Walkman interface requires the use of the jog dial. The menu icons are lined in a column with the usual sorting by artists, albums, compilations, tracks and playlists. There's also a Moods option where songs can be tagged to the different tempo of the music, for example, happy, sad, energetic or chilled. This lets us pick one that suits our mood for the day.

On the connectivity front, the triband W960i is 3G-enabled (UMTS 2100) and equipped with Bluetooth with A2DP support and Wi-Fi. Other features on this Symbian UIQ Walkman include FM radio with RDS, an Opera Web browser, support for RSS feeds, TrackID and organizer functions.

Although it's from the Walkman series, the W960i isn't a minion when it comes to digital imaging. It has a 3.2-megapixel autofocus camera with a pair of LED photolights. Pictures can go up to a maximum resolution of 2,048 x 1,536 pixels and videos in QVGA at 15fps. The video part was a bit of a disappointment since there are smart phones on the market that are capable of shooting motion images in VGA resolution at 30fps. There's also a secondary front-facing camera for 3G video calls.

Performance

Unlike the P1i, we didn't find the W960i particularly responsive. The slowdown was even more obvious when the 8GB memory started to reach its limit. There are two modes to choose from after we connect the W960i to the PC: Normal or Fast file transfer. For the latter, the W960i will show up as a flash drive, so copying of files to the handset is only a matter of dragging and dropping. Alternatively, Sony Ericsson also provides the media manager software to manage music files on the unit.

The W960i ships with a standard 950mAh Lithium-polymer cell that's rated for 9 hours of talktime and about 15 days on standby. In real-world conditions, the battery life performance was dismal. With our usual pattern of making calls, sending text messages and listening to music during commute, the cell gave up on us in less than 1.5 days. Be prepared to charge it every night if you don't want to worry about it dying mid-day.

The W960i takes average-quality pictures which most people would find okay. In terms of performance, there's a 0.6-second shutter lag, though that shouldn't matter that much as long as the hand is kept steady when pressing the shutter. The only gripe we have is that the camera interface didn't have one of those rectangular boxes that light up in green to show that the camera is focused and ready. Instead, the small icon on the bottom left does that. To sum it up, there's still work to be done on the UI of the camera.

Conclusion

We found the onboard speakers pleasant and up to par. We didn't expect any lesser since that's a flagship model from the Walkman pedigree. Pairing to our stereo cans via Bluetooth A2DP happened without a hitch. We guess that's one way of avoiding the cables using the 3.5mm adapter.

So was the hype around the W960i justified? On paper, yes. Did it meet our expectations? No. The W960i may be one of the most elaborate music-phones we've seen, but is most unfortunately bogged down by several issues--poor location of Back button, lack of a built-in 3.5mm audio port, dismal battery life and laggy performance.

Hmm! Sony Ericsson W960i instead of a P1? Hayz will wait for the price to go down again ^_^
