MySQL Course Philippines

Crash Course For MySQL - Enroll Now

I'm a web developer on our company doing in-house web applications for our internal customers. As we had just bought a more than a million servers and IT equipments, me and my supervisor decided to upgrade our database platform since we are still using microsoft access (don't laugh).

Though the new version of ms access is already unlimited contrary to the 2000 version where 2 gigabytes is the ceiling. But moving with MySQL platform is just right to complement our high-end servers, not to mention that using ms access for a company is a little unprofessional.

I have read a lot but my supervisor told me that it's more proper for at least one of us to have a formal training for MySQL. So we tried to look for a place where I can have my MySQL training.

Fortunately, we found that the activelearning center at Ortigas city offering exactly what we need. The course is officially titled as "Introduction to MySQL™ Development and Administration". It is a four days course starts on August 3-6 2010. So if you are also looking for the same course, then this one is for you too.

This post intends to hijack the keyword "MySQL Training Course In The Philippines" to point searchers to activelearing center's website.

Attendees will receive a certificate after the course. The whole course is a hands on training. Morning and afternoon refreshments also came with the package. Not to mention that I will be staying on a hotel, my first time (smile).

Being in a 2,400/day pesos worth of room is really enough to blog for. So having a MySQL training course all the way to Manila with a hotel accomodation and all expense paid by your company is really an opportunity.

Though I just signed earlier a six months ban for the training, but six months are very short and just (justice), so I signed the contract.

Are you also looking for a MySQL training here in the northern luzon, Philippines?
Class will start soon, come and be my classmate.

Cherry Mobile P1 Review

Cherry Mobile P1 Specification | Cherry Mobile P1 Features | Cherry Mobile P1 Price

My cherry mobile P1 model experience

When I heard about this cherry mobile P1 model, I really got excited to have one.

So I tried looking for one here on our city, but unfortunately no one seems to have this model. After a month or so, a greenhills – like establishment here on our place sells my long awaited cherry mobile p1.

Sure I can afford buying higher end models, especially their dua-sim mobile phones offered in 2,400 (something) pesos only. But all I want is a basic phone, something I can use for texting and calling. So having this cherry mobile p1 model is just perfect to backup my N-series phone.

This post is about review, so let’s begin.

I will not be too technical here since I am not a technical person in regards to mobile phone testing. Rather, this review will be coming from a regular person who uses mobile phones for daily use.


External Size

The cherry mobile p1 model’s main characteristic that caught my interest is the external size. For those wondering the external size, I used a digital caliper (what is caliper?) to measure the exact thickness of this very small mobile phone.

As you can see on the picture above, the caliper measured as 10.26 millimeter for its thickness. Converting that in centimeter and inches, the value would be 1.025997948 and 0.4039362.

As of the height, here is my credit card to show how small this thing really is. Credit cards by the way is (as far as I know) the same size as an atm card, so if you own or have seen an atm card, you would got a better picture of what I’m telling here.

Here is the picture of the p1 against a credit card.

Colors

The creators of cherry mobile just did it right, coming up with different colors added value for this model. Of course, green color is good, but we don’t like it all. Cherry mobile P1 model is available in green, purple, yellow, blue, black, pink and red.

Black is nice, but I chose color blue because black made it look like a cellphone. And I want mine to be look like a calculator, smile :p
.

Apperance

When I showed my cherry mobile p1 model on the office, all of my co-workers got crazy with it. The first reaction I got is them asking “What is that?”. Out of ten, three said it is a remote control, six said it is a calculator, the remaining one mistakenly said that “Ay, parang cellphone na calculator” (A calculator that looks like a cellphone).

This is the reason I chose color blue, to make it not look like a cellphone, but a calculator.

Three of my officemates even tried texting from and to the my p1 mobile phone just to satisfy their doubts, and of course, it sent and received text messages. One even tried miscalling my phone to see how it sounds like, and of course, my p1 phone bragged its polyphonic tone.

This p1 model really made me cool, the only person on our company that owns one, haha!


Price

If the above mentioned weren’t enough for you, then let’s talk about the price. Cherry mobile sells for only nine hundred and ninety nine pesos (Php.999), yes no typo there.

The price as I believed made this model noisier among all groups of people nationwide. 999? Are you kidding me?!

Cherry mobile is not joking when they offered a brand new mobile phone for only nine hundred ninety nine pesos that comes with a full year warranty.


Weight

In relation to its external size that we have discussed above, the weight of this model is very light. I’m putting my main phone on my pants’ pocket, but I am putting this p1 on my polo’s pocket, and I can barely feel it’s there.

Very very light, I promise.


Some More Notable Features

My main concern before is the text display, I assumed that it shows big letters and I am imagining it having a jam-pack two rows text on it. To my surprise, the letters are very small and it rowed to three very accommodating display.

Here’s a preview of my p1 model that shows a three row display.

Polyphonic tone, yeah I mentioned that earlier, just want to repeat it again.

Alarm clock, no need to explain this, but it has an alarm clock where you can set three alarm settings. I’m not sure how say this right, but it has alarm1, alarm2 and alarm3, okay hope that I made you understand with that.

Calculator, contrary to what people thought it to be, but no, it doesn’t have a calculator in it. A very simple feature that p1 creator can easily add but did not. Only to prove itself that it is not a calculator but it is a cellphone.

You can also set profile settings. Profiles include ring tones, alarm tones, volumes and etc.

One drawback though is that it doesn’t have a vibrator on it. But with its appearance, you wouldn’t expect it to have one anyway. Also, sent items is not a feature for this model.

With its price, it is very ideal as a gift for anyone.

How about you? Do you also want this model? Or if you already have one, what can you say about your cherry mobile p1 model?

Jovit Baldivino Sky Flakes Commercial

Jovit Baldivino's First Ever Commercial - Sky Flakes

Watch this commercial - sky flakes endorsed by Jovit Baldivino

The Pilipinas Got Talent and named as "The Next Superstar", Jovit Baldivino now have his first television commercial now airing on different tv stations worldwide.

Jovit is endorsing sky flakes, a very well known biscuits on the country.

Sky flakes' theme on its commercials depicts about hopes of an individual who has got a chance in proving himself. With this, Jovit is really suited for the commercial as he was regarded as a rag-to-riches person who had tried proving himself in front of the whole Filipino people, and yes the whole world.

"Break mo, Kagatin mo", the popular line of sky flakes. But for Jovit, the commercial said "Big Break", for Jovit indeed.

President Noynoy SONA | Videos And Full Transcript

Watch President Noynoy's SONA 2010

President Benigno Aquino III state of the nation address with full transcript.

My post entitled "Noynoy Aquino SONA 2010" had gained considerable visitors for this blog. So as a commitment for my visitors who are monitoring this event, I created this update post in regards to President Noynoy Aquino's state of the nation address held today, July 26, 2010.

Here's the videos I found on youtube.
I need to go to work so I myself also didn't watch the SONA on live tv much more to record it, credit to Dan C. Rivera for uploading these videos.









Here is the full transcript of the state of the nation address:


July 26, 2010
Batasan Pambansa Complex
Quezon City

Speaker Feliciano Belmonte; Senate President Juan Ponce Enrile; Vice President Jejomar C. Binay; Chief Justice Renato Corona; Former Presidents Fidel Valdez Ramos and Joseph Ejercito Estrada; members of the House of Representatives and the Senate; distinguished members of the diplomatic corps; my fellow workers in government;

Mga minamahal kong kababayan:

Sa bawat sandali po ng pamamahala ay nahaharap tayo sa isang sangandaan.

Sa isang banda po ay ang pagpili para sa ikabubuti ng taumbayan. Ang pagtanaw sa interes ng nakakarami; at pagkapit sa prinsipyo; at ang pagiging tapat sa sinumpaan nating tungkulin bilang lingkod-bayan. Ito po ang tuwid na daan.

Sa kabilang banda ay ang pag-una sa pansariling interes. Ang pagpapaalipin sa pulitikal na konsiderasyon, at pagsasakripisyo ng kapakanan ng taumbayan. Ito po ang baluktot na daan.

Matagal pong naligaw ang pamahalaan sa daang baluktot. Araw-araw po, lalong lumilinaw sa akin ang lawak ng problemang ating namana. Damang-dama ko ang bigat ng aking responsibilidad.

Sa unang tatlong linggo ng aming panunungkulan, marami po kaming natuklasan. Nais ko pong ipahayag sa inyo ang iilan lamang sa mga namana nating suliranin at ang ginagawa naming hakbang para lutasin ang mga ito.

Sulyap lamang po ito; hindi pa ito ang lahat ng problemang haharapin natin. Inilihim at sadyang iniligaw ang sambayanan sa totoong kalagayan ng ating bansa.

Sa unang anim na buwan ng taon, mas malaki ang ginastos ng gobyerno kaysa sa pumasok na kita. Lalong lumaki ang deficit natin, na umakyat na sa 196.7 billion pesos. Sa target na kuleksyon, kinapos tayo ng 23.8 billion pesos; ang tinataya namang gastos, nalagpasan lang natin ng 45.1 billion pesos.

Ang budget po sa 2010 ay 1.54 trillion pesos.

Nasa isandaang bilyong piso o anim at kalahating porsyento na lang ng kabuuan ang malaya nating magagamit para sa nalalabing anim na buwan ng taong ito.

Halos isang porsyento na lang po ng kabuuang budget ang natitira para sa bawat buwan.

Saan naman po dinala ang pera?

Naglaan ng dalawang bilyong piso na Calamity Fund bilang paghahanda para sa mga kalamidad na hindi pa nangyayari. Napakaliit na nga ng pondong ito, ngunit kapapasok pa lang natin sa panahon ng baha at bagyo, 1.4 billion pesos o sitenta porsyento (70%) na ang nagastos.

Sa kabuuan ng 108 million pesos para sa lalawigan ng Pampanga, 105 million pesos nito ay napunta sa iisang distrito lamang.

Samantala, ang lalawigan ng Pangasinan na sinalanta ng Pepeng ay nakatanggap ng limang milyong piso (P5M) lamang para sa pinsalang idinulot ng bagyong Cosme, na nangyari noong 2008 pa.

Ibinigay po ang pondo ng Pampanga sa buwan ng eleksyon, pitong buwan pagkatapos ng Ondoy at Pepeng. Paano kung bumagyo bukas? Inubos na ang pondo nito para sa bagyong nangyari noong isang taon pa. Pagbabayaran ng kinabukasan ang kasakiman ng nakaraan.

Ganyan din po ang nangyari sa pondo ng MWSS. Kamakailan lamang, pumipila ang mga tao para lang makakuha ng tubig. Sa kabila nito, minabuti pa ng liderato ng MWSS na magbigay ng gantimpala sa sarili kahit hindi pa nababayaran ang pensyon ng mga retiradong empleyado.

Noong 2009, ang buong payroll ng MWSS ay 51.4 million pesos. Pero hindi lang naman po ito ang sahod nila; may mga additional allowances at benefits pa sila na aabot sa 160.1 million pesos.

Sa madaling sabi, nakatanggap sila ng 211.5 million pesos noong nakaraang taon.

Beinte-kuwatro porsyento (24%) lang nito ang normal na sahod, at sitenta’y sais porsyento ang dagdag.

Ang karaniwang manggagawa hanggang 13th month pay plus cash gift lang ang nakukuha.

Sa MWSS, aabot sa katumbas ng mahigit sa tatlumpung buwan ang sahod kasama na ang lahat ng mga bonuses at allowances na nakuha nila.

Mas matindi po ang natuklasan natin sa pasahod ng kanilang Board of Trustees. Tingnan po natin ang mga allowances na tinatanggap nila:

Umupo ka lang sa Board of Trustees at Board Committee meeting, katorse mil na. Aabot ng nobenta’y otso mil ito kada buwan. May grocery incentive pa sila na otsenta mil kada taon.

Hindi lang iyon: may mid-year bonus, productivity bonus, anniversary bonus, year-end bonus, at Financial Assistance. May Christmas bonus na, may Additional Christmas Package pa. Kada isa sa mga ito, nobenta’y otso mil.

Sa suma total po, aabot ang lahat ng dalawa’t kalahating milyong piso kada taon sa bawat miyembro ng Board maliban sa pakotse, technical assistance, at pautang. Uulitin ko po. Lahat ng ito ay ibinibigay nila sa kanilang mga sarili habang hindi pa nababayaran ang mga pensyon ng kanilang mga retirees.

Pati po ang La Mesa Watershed ay hindi nila pinatawad. Para magkaroon ng tamang supply ng tubig, kailangang alagaan ang mga watershed. Sa watershed, puno ang kailangan.

Pati po iyon na dapat puno ang nakatayo, tinayuan nila ng bahay para sa matataas na opisyal ng MWSS.

Hindi naman sila agad maaalis sa puwesto dahil kabilang sila sa mga Midnight Appointees ni dating Pangulong Arroyo.

Iniimbestigahan na natin ang lahat nang ito. Kung mayroon pa silang kahit kaunting hiya na natitira – sana kusa na lang silang magbitiw sa puwesto.

Pag-usapan naman po natin ang pondo para sa imprastruktura. Tumukoy ang DPWH ng dalawandaan apatnapu’t anim na priority safety projects na popondohan ng Motor Vehicle Users Charge. Mangangailangan po ito ng budget na 425 million pesos.

Ang pinondohan po, dalawampu’t walong proyekto lang. Kinalimutan po ang dalawandaan at labing walong proyekto at pinalitan ng pitumpung proyekto na wala naman sa plano. Ang hininging 425 million pesos, naging 480 million pesos pa, lumaki lalo dahil sa mga proyektong sa piling-piling mga benepisyaryo lang napunta.

Mga proyekto po itong walang saysay, hindi pinag-aralan at hindi pinaghandaan, kaya parang kabuteng sumusulpot.

Tapos na po ang panahon para dito. Sa administrasyon po natin, walang kota-kota, walang tongpats, ang pera ng taumbayan ay gagastusin para sa taumbayan lamang.

Meron pa po tayong natuklasan. Limang araw bago matapos ang termino ng nakaraang administrasyon, nagpautos silang maglabas ng 3.5 billion pesos para sa rehabilitasyon ng mga nasalanta nina Ondoy at Pepeng.

Walumpu’t anim na proyekto ang paglalaanan dapat nito na hindi na sana idadaan sa public bidding. Labingsiyam sa mga ito na nagkakahalaga ng 981 million pesos ang muntik nang makalusot. Hindi pa nailalabas ang Special Allotment Release Order ay pirmado na ang mga kontrata.

Buti na lang po ay natuklasan at pinigilan ito ni Secretary Rogelio Singson ng DPWH. Ngayon po ay dadaan na ang kabuuan ng 3.5 billion pesos sa tapat na bidding, at magagamit na ang pondo na ito sa pagbibigay ng lingap sa mga nawalan ng tahanan dahil kina Ondoy at Pepeng.

Pag-usapan naman natin ang nangyari sa NAPOCOR. Noong 2001 hanggang 2004, pinilit ng gobyerno ang NAPOCOR na magbenta ng kuryente nang palugi para hindi tumaas ang presyo. Tila ang dahilan: pinaghahandaan na nila ang eleksyon.

Dahil dito, noong 2004, sumagad ang pagkakabaon sa utang ng NAPOCOR. Napilitan ang pambansang gobyerno na sagutin ang dalawandaang bilyong pisong utang nito.

Ang inakala ng taumbayan na natipid nila sa kuryente ay binabayaran din natin mula sa kaban ng bayan. May gastos na tayo sa kuryente, binabayaran pa natin ang dagdag na pagkakautang ng gobyerno.

Kung naging matino ang pag-utang, sana’y nadagdagan ang ating kasiguruhan sa supply ng kuryente. Pero ang desisyon ay ibinatay sa maling pulitika, at hindi sa pangangailangan ng taumbayan. Ang taumbayan, matapos pinagsakripisyo ay lalo pang pinahihirapan.

Ganito rin po ang nangyari sa MRT. Sinubukan na namang bilhin ang ating pagmamahal. Pinilit ang operator na panatilihing mababa ang pamasahe.

Hindi tuloy nagampanan ang garantiyang ibinigay sa operator na mababawi nila ang kanilang puhunan. Dahil dito, inutusan ang Landbank at Development Bank of the Philippines na bilhin ang MRT.

Ang pera ng taumbayan, ipinagpalit sa isang naluluging operasyon.

Dumako naman po tayo sa pondo ng NFA.

Noong 2004: 117,000 metric tons ang pagkukulang ng supply ng Pilipinas. Ang binili nila, 900,000 metric tons. Kahit ulitin mo pa ng mahigit pitong beses ang pagkukulang, sobra pa rin ang binili nila.

Noong 2007: 589,000 metric tons ang pagkukulang ng supply sa Pilipinas. Ang binili nila, 1.827 million metric tons. Kahit ulitin mo pa ng mahigit tatlong beses ang pagkukulang, sobra na naman ang binili nila.

Ang masakit nito, dahil sobra-sobra ang binibili nila taun-taon, nabubulok lang pala sa mga kamalig ang bigas, kagaya ng nangyari noong 2008.

Hindi po ba krimen ito, na hinahayaan nilang mabulok ang bigas, sa kabila ng apat na milyong Pilipinong hindi kumakain ng tatlong beses sa isang araw?

Ang resulta nito, umabot na sa 171.6 billion pesos ang utang ng NFA noong Mayo ng taong ito.

Ang tinapon na ito, halos puwede na sanang pondohan ang mga sumusunod:

Ang budget ng buong Hudikatura, na 12.7 billion pesos sa taong ito.

Ang Conditional Cash Transfers para sa susunod na taon, na nagkakahalaga ng 29.6 billion pesos.

Ang lahat ng classroom na kailangan ng ating bansa, na nagkakahalaga ng 130 billion pesos.

Kasuklam-suklam ang kalakarang ito. Pera na, naging bato pa.

Narinig po ninyo kung paano nilustay ang kaban ng bayan. Ang malinaw po sa ngayon: ang anumang pagbabago ay magmumula sa pagsiguro natin na magwawakas na ang pagiging maluho at pagwawaldas.

Kaya nga po mula ngayon: ititigil na natin ang paglulustay sa salapi ng bayan.

Tatanggalin natin ang mga proyektong mali.

Ito po ang punto ng tinatawag nating zero-based approach sa ating budget. Ang naging kalakaran po, taun-taon ay inuulit lamang ang budget na puno ng tagas. Dadagdagan lang nang konti, puwede na.

Sa susunod na buwan ay maghahain tayo ng budget na kumikilala nang tama sa mga problema, at magtutuon din ng pansin sa tamang solusyon.

Ilan lang ito sa mga natuklasan nating problema. Heto naman po ang ilang halimbawa ng mga hakbang na ginagawa natin.

Nandiyan po ang kaso ng isang may-ari ng sanglaan. Bumili siya ng sasakyang tinatayang nasa dalawampu’t anim na milyong piso ang halaga.

Kung kaya mong bumili ng Lamborghini, bakit hindi mo kayang magbayad ng buwis?

Nasampahan na po ito ng kaso. Sa pangunguna nina Finance Secretary Cesar Purisima, Justice Secretary Leila de Lima, BIR Commissioner Kim Henares at Customs Commissioner Lito Alvarez, bawat linggo po ay may bago tayong kasong isinasampa kontra sa mga smuggler at sa mga hindi nagbabayad ng tamang buwis.

Natukoy na rin po ang salarin sa mga kaso nina Francisco Baldomero, Jose Daguio at Miguel Belen, tatlo sa anim na insidente ng extralegal killings mula nang umupo tayo.

Singkuwenta porsyento po ng mga insidente ng extralegal killings na nangyari sa maikling taon ng ating panunungkulan ang patungo na sa kanilang resolusyon.

Ang natitira pong kalahati ay hindi natin tatantanan ang pag-usig hanggang makamit ang katarungan.

Pananagutin natin ang mga mamamatay-tao. Pananagutin din natin ang mga corrupt sa gobyerno.

Nagsimula nang mabuo ang ating Truth Commission, sa pangunguna ni dating Chief Justice Hilario Davide. Hahanapin natin ang katotohanan sa mga nangyari diumanong katiwalian noong nakaraang siyam na taon.

Sa loob ng linggong ito, pipirmahan ko ang kauna-unahang Executive Order na nagtatalaga sa pagbuo nitong Truth Commission.

Kung ang sagot sa kawalan ng katarungan ay pananagutan, ang sagot naman sa kakulangan natin sa pondo ay mga makabago at malikhaing paraan para tugunan ang mga pagkatagal-tagal nang problema.

Napakarami po ng ating pangangailangan: mula sa edukasyon, imprastruktura, pangkalusugan, pangangailangan ng militar at kapulisan, at marami pang iba. Hindi kakasya ang pondo para mapunan ang lahat ng ito.

Kahit gaano po kalaki ang kakulangan para mapunuan ang mga listahan ng ating pangangailangan, ganado pa rin ako dahil marami nang nagpakita ng panibagong interes at kumpyansa sa Pilipinas.

Ito ang magiging solusyon: mga Public-Private Partnerships. Kahit wala pa pong pirmahang nangyayari dito, masasabi kong maganda ang magiging bunga ng maraming usapin (ukol ditto).

May mga nagpakita na po ng interes, gustong magtayo ng expressway na mula Maynila, tatahak ng Bulacan, Nueva Ecija, Nueva Vizcaya, hanggang sa dulo ng Cagayan Valley nang hindi gugugol ang estado kahit na po piso.

Sa larangan ng ating Sandatahang Lakas:

Mayroon po tayong 36,000 nautical miles na baybayin. Ang mayroon lamang tayo: tatlumpu’t dalawang barko. Itong mga barkong ito, panahon pa ni General MacArthur.

May nagmungkahi sa atin, ito ang proposisyon: uupahan po nila ang headquarters ng Navy sa Roxas Boulevard at ang Naval Station sa Fort Bonifacio.

Sagot po nila ang paglipat ng Navy Headquarters sa Camp Aguinaldo. Agaran, bibigyan tayo ng isandaang milyong dolyar. At dagdag pa sa lahat nang iyan, magsusubi pa sila sa atin ng kita mula sa mga negosyong itatayo nila sa uupahan nilang lupa.

Sa madali pong sabi: Makukuha natin ang kailangan natin, hindi tatayo gagastos, kikita pa tayo.

Marami na pong nag-alok at nagmungkahi sa atin, mula lokal hanggang dayuhang negosyante, na magpuno ng iba’t ibang pangangailangan.

Mula sa mga public-private partnerships na ito, lalago ang ating ekonomiya, at bawat Pilipino makikinabang. Napakaraming sektor na matutulungan nito.

Maipapatayo na po ang imprastrukturang kailangan natin para palaguin ang turismo.

Sa agrikultura, makapagtatayo na tayo ng mga grains terminals, refrigeration facilities, maayos na road networks at post-harvest facilities.

Kung maisasaayos natin ang ating food supply chain sa tulong ng pribadong sektor, sa halip na mag-angkat tayo ay maari na sana tayong mangarap na mag-supply sa pandaigdigang merkado.

Kung maitatayo ang minumungkahi sa ating mga railway system, bababa ang presyo ng bilihin. Mas mura, mas mabilis, mas maginhawa, at makakaiwas pa sa kotong cops at mga kumokotong na rebelde ang mga bumibiyahe.

Paalala lang po: una sa ating plataporma ang paglikha ng mga trabaho, at nanggagaling ang trabaho sa paglago ng industriya. Lalago lamang ang industriya kung gagawin nating mas malinis, mas mabilis, at mas maginhawa ang proseso para sa mga gustong magnegosyo.

Pabibilisin natin ang proseso ng mga proyektong sumasailalim sa Build-Operate-Transfer. Sa tulong ng lahat ng sangay ng gobyerno at ng mga mamamayan, pabababain natin sa anim na buwan ang proseso na noon ay inaabot ng taon kung hindi dekada.

May mga hakbang na rin pong sinisimulan ang DTI, sa pamumuno ni Secretary Gregory Domingo:

Ang walang-katapusang pabalik-balik sa proseso ng pagrehistro ng pangalan ng kumpanya, na kada dalaw ay umaabot ng apat hanggang walong oras, ibababa na natin sa labinlimang minuto.

Ang dating listahan ng tatlumpu’t anim na dokumento, ibababa natin sa anim. Ang dating walong pahinang application form, ibababa natin sa isang pahina.

Nananawagan ako sa ating mga LGUs. Habang naghahanap tayo ng paraan para gawing mas mabilis ang pagbubukas ng mga negosyo, pag-aralan din sana nila ang kanilang mga proseso. Kailangan itong gawing mas mabilis, at kailangan itong itugma sa mga sinisumulan nating reporma.

Negosyante, sundalo, rebelde, at karaniwang Pilipino, lahat po makikinabang dito. Basta po hindi dehado ang Pilipino, papasukin po natin lahat iyan.

Kailangan na po nating simulan ang pagtutulungan para makamit ito. Huwag nating pahirapan ang isa’t isa.

Parating na po ang panahon na hindi na natin kailangang mamili sa pagitan ng seguridad ng ating mamamayan o sa kinabukasan ng inyong mga anak.

Oras na maipatupad ang public-private partnerships na ito, mapopondohan ang mga serbisyong panlipunan, alinsunod sa ating plataporma.

Magkakapondo na po para maipatupad ang mga plano natin sa edukasyon.

Mapapalawak natin ang basic education cycle mula sa napakaikling sampung taon tungo sa global standard na labindalawang taon.

Madadagdagan natin ang mga classroom. Mapopondohan natin ang service contracting sa ilalim ng GASTPE.

Pati ang conditional cash transfers, na magbabawas ng pabigat sa bulsa ng mga pamilya, madadagdan na rin ng pondo.

Maipapatupad ang plano natin sa PhilHealth.

Una, tutukuyin natin ang tunay na bilang ng mga nangangailangan nito. Sa ngayon, hindi magkakatugma ang datos. Sabi ng PhilHealth sa isang bibig, walumpu’t pitong porsyento na raw ang merong coverage. Sa kabilang bibig naman, singkuwenta’y tres porsyento. Ayon naman sa National Statistics Office, tatlumpu’t walong porsyento ang may coverage.

Ngayon pa lang, kumikilos na si Secretary Dinky Soliman at ang DSWD upang ipatupad ang National Household Targetting System, na magtutukoy sa mga pamilyang higit na nagangailangan ng tulong. Tinatayang siyam na bilyon ang kailangan para mabigyan ng PhilHealth ang limang milyong pinakamaralitang pamilyang Pilipino.

Napakaganda po ng hinaharap natin. Kasama na po natin ang pribadong sektor, at kasama na rin natin ang League of Provinces, sa pangunguna nina Governor Alfonso Umali kasama sina Governor L-Ray Villafuerte at Governor Icot Petilla. Handa na pong makipagtulungan para makibahagi sa pagtustos ng mga gastusin. Alam ko rin pong hindi magpapahuli ang League of Cities sa pangunguna ni Mayor Oscar Rodriguez.

Kung ang mga gobyernong lokal ay nakikiramay na sa ating mga adhikain, ang Kongreso namang pinanggalingan ko, siguro naman maasahan ko din.

Nagpakitang-gilas na po ang gabinete sa pagtukoy ng ating mga problema at sa paglulunsad ng mga solusyon sa loob lamang ng tatlong linggo.

Nang bagyo pong Basyang, ang sabi sa atin ng mga may prangkisa sa kuryente, apat na araw na walang kuryente. Dahil sa mabilis na pagkilos ni Secretary Rene Almendras at ng Department of Energy, naibalik ang kuryente sa halos lahat sa loob lamang ng beinte-kwatro oras.

Ito pong sinasabing kakulangan sa tubig sa Metro Manila, kinilusan agad ni Secretary Rogelio Singson at ng DPWH. Hindi na siya naghintay ng utos, kaya nabawasan ang perwisyo.

Nakita na rin natin ang gilas ng mga hinirang nating makatulong sa Gabinete. Makatuwiran naman po sigurong umasa na hindi na sila padadaanin sa butas ng karayom para makumpirma ng Commission on Appointments. Kung mangyayari po ito, marami pa sa mga mahuhusay na Pilipino ang maeengganyong magsilbi sa gobyerno.

Sa lalong madaling panahon po, uupo na tayo sa LEDAC at pag-uusapan ang mga mahahalagang batas na kailangan nating ipasa. Makakaasa kayo na mananatiling bukas ang aking isipan, at ang ating ugnayan ay mananatiling tapat.

Isinusulong po natin ang Fiscal Responsibility Bill, kung saan hindi tayo magpapasa ng batas na mangangailangan ng pondo kung hindi pa natukoy ang panggagalingan nito. May 104.1 billion pesos tayong kailangan para pondohan ang mga batas na naipasa na, ngunit hindi maipatupad.

Kailangan din nating isaayos ang mga insentibong piskal na ibinigay noong nakaraan. Ngayong naghihigpit tayo ng sinturon, kailangang balikan kung alin sa mga ito ang dapat manatili at kung ano ang dapat nang itigil.

Huwag po tayong pumayag na magkaroon ng isa pang NBN-ZTE. Sa lokal man o dayuhan manggagaling ang pondo, dapat dumaan ito sa tamang proseso. Hinihingi ko po ang tulong ninyo upang amiyendahan ang ating Procurement Law.

Ayon po sa Saligang Batas, tungkulin ng estado ang siguruhing walang lamangan sa merkado. Bawal ang monopolya, bawal ang mga cartel na sasakal sa kumpetisyon. Kailangan po natin ng isang Anti-Trust Law na magbibigay-buhay sa mga prinsipyong ito. Ito ang magbibigay ng pagkakataon sa mga Small- at Medium-scale Enterprises na makilahok at tumulong sa paglago ng ating ekonomiya.

Ipasa na po natin ang National Land Use Bill.

Una rin pong naging batas ng Commonwealth ang National Defense Act, na ipinasa noon pang 1935. Kailangan nang palitan ito ng batas na tutugon sa pangangailangan ng pambansang seguridad sa kasalukuyan.

Nakikiusap po akong isulong ang Whistleblower’s Bill upang patuloy nang iwaksi ang kultura ng takot at pananahimik.

Palalakasin pa lalo ang Witness Protection Program. Alalahanin po natin na noong taong 2009 hanggang 2010, may nahatulan sa 95% ng mga kaso kung saan may witness na sumailalim sa programang ito.
Kailangang repasuhin ang ating mga batas. Nanawagan po akong umpisahan na ang rekodipikasyon ng ating mga batas, upang siguruhing magkakatugma sila at hindi salu-salungat.

Ito pong mga batas na ito ang batayan ng kaayusan, ngunit ang pundasyon ng lahat ng ginagawa natin ay ang prinsipyong wala tayong mararating kung walang kapayapaan at katahimikan.

Dalawa ang hinaharap nating suliranin sa usapin ng kapayapaan: ang situwasyon sa Mindanao, at ang patuloy na pag-aaklas ng CPP-NPA-NDF.

Tungkol sa situwasyon sa Mindanao: Hindi po nagbabago ang ating pananaw. Mararating lamang ang kapayapaan at katahimikan kung mag-uusap ang lahat ng apektado: Moro, Lumad, at Kristiyano. Inatasan na natin si Dean Marvic Leonen na mangasiwa sa ginagawa nating pakikipag-usap sa MILF.

Iiwasan natin ang mga pagkakamaling nangyari sa nakaraang administrasyon, kung saan binulaga na lang ang mga mamamayan ng Mindanao. Hindi tayo puwedeng magbulag-bulagan sa mga dudang may kulay ng pulitika ang proseso, at hindi ang kapakanan ng taumbayan ang tanging interes.

Kinikilala natin ang mga hakbang na ginagawa ng MILF sa pamamagitan ng pagdidisplina sa kanilang hanay. Inaasahan natin na muling magsisimula ang negosasyon pagkatapos ng Ramadan.

Tungkol naman po sa CPP-NPA-NDF: handa na ba kayong maglaan ng kongkretong mungkahi, sa halip na pawang batikos lamang?

Kung kapayapaan din ang hangad ninyo, handa po kami sa malawakang tigil-putukan. Kayo po ba ay handa na din? Mag-usap tayo.

Mahirap magsimula ang usapan habang mayroon pang amoy ng pulbura sa hangin. Nananawagan ako: huwag po natin hayaang masayang ang napakagandang pagkakataong ito upang magtipon sa ilalim ng iisang adhikain.

Kapayapaan at katahimikan po ang pundasyon ng kaunlaran. Habang nagpapatuloy ang barilan, patuloy din ang pagkakagapos natin sa kahirapan.

Dapat din po nating mabatid: ito ay panahon ng sakripisyo. At ang sakripisyong ito ay magiging puhunan para sa ating kinabukasan. Kaakibat ng ating mga karapatan at kalayaan ay ang tungkulin natin sa kapwa at sa bayan.

Inaasahan ko po ang ating mga kaibigan sa media, lalo na sa radyo at sa print, sa mga nagbablock-time, at sa community newspapers, kayo na po mismo ang magbantay sa inyong hanay.

Mabigyang-buhay sana ang mga batayang prinsipyo ng inyong bokasyon: ang magbigay-linaw sa mahahalagang isyu; ang maging patas at makatotohanan, at ang itaas ang antas ng pampublikong diskurso.

Tungkulin po ng bawat Pilipino na tutukan ang mga pinunong tayo rin naman ang nagluklok sa puwesto. Humakbang mula sa pakikialam tungo sa pakikilahok. Dahil ang nakikialam, walang-hanggan ang reklamo.

Ang nakikilahok, nakikibahagi sa solusyon.

Napakatagal na pong namamayani ang pananaw na ang susi sa asenso ay ang intindihin ang sarili kaysa intindihin ang kapwa. Malinaw po sa akin: paano tayo aasenso habang nilalamangan ang kapwa?

Ang hindi nabigyan ng pagkakataong mag-aral, paanong makakakuha ng trabaho? Kung walang trabaho, paanong magiging konsumer? Paanong mag-iimpok sa bangko?

Ngunit kung babaliktarin natin ang pananaw-kung iisipin nating “Dadagdagan ko ang kakayahan ng aking kapwa”-magbubunga po ito, at ang lahat ay magkakaroon ng pagkakataon.

Maganda na po ang nasimulan natin. At mas lalong maganda po ang mararating natin. Ngunit huwag nating kalimutan na mayroong mga nagnanasang hindi tayo magtagumpay. Dahil kapag hindi tayo
nagtagumpay, makakabalik na naman sila sa kapangyarihan, at sa pagsasamantala sa taumbayan.

Akin pong paniwala na Diyos at taumbayan ang nagdala sa ating kinalalagyan ngayon. Habang nakatutok tayo sa kapakanan ng ating kapwa, bendisyon at patnubay ay tiyak na maaasahan natin sa Poong Maykapal. At kapag nanalig tayo na ang kasangga natin ay ang Diyos, mayroon ba tayong hindi kakayanin?

Ang mandato nating nakuha sa huling eleksyon ay patunay na umaasa pa rin ang Pilipino sa pagbabago. Iba na talaga ang situwasyon. Puwede na muling mangarap. Tayo nang tumungo sa katuparan ng ating mga pinangarap.

Maraming salamat po.

Eight Reasons Why I Like Google Chrome

Google Chrome Review | Internet Browser

My google chrome experience

No Header

I'm treating this seriously, the taskbar-header really gets in my way. I think that the creator of other browsers put the header bar to continuously remind users like “You’re using Mozilla Firefox” or “This is Bill Gates’ Internet Explorer”. Quite exaggerated but I’m sure you got the picture, I believe that it’s just an available space that we’re wasting up there.

Rewinding back time, one purpose of this I believe is to create an area for the webpage’s title. But with the innovation of tab browsing, the header bar had just become a redundancy, it’s nothing more than a place to scream its brand.

Fast

My firefox takes some notable time loading itself on my pc. Not surprisingly, other had experiencing the same problem, though it’s normal as they have reasoned on this thread. Now getting back to chrome, I can say that it shows up pretty quickly after double clicking its icon and it loads every webpage smoothly, no complain so far.

Tab Behavior

I really find it cool, them creating draggable tabs where you can’t just shuffle the tab but you can also create a new window by pulling any tabs. With this, you can merge or split any tabs as you like. Another point for chrome for this –ting!

Most Visited

I like how they let users know their most visited sites as they display snapshot thumbnails of each site that you mostly visted. Internet explorer 8 tried to mimic this simply-but-awesome feature, but chrome not just did it first, but they did it more neatly and more  precisely. –ting ting!

Recently Closed Tab

If you had closed a tab, chrome tells you what these are immediately. That’s why when you closed a tab accidentally or for any reason you want that closed tab back, you didn’t need to dig your browsing history, just click on the displayed icon and your recently closed tab is back before you can tap your forehead. This feature is also functional if you had closed multiple tabs.

Final Appearance

I can’t explain this elaborately but chrome’s appearance feels so clean and it just looks like it has more room than any other browser today. Proff of chrome's claim: 'Minimal design, Faster performace'.

Mutiple .exe

I never had experience crashing on chrome, but they said that in case a web page freezes, you didn’t need to close chrome and loose the other webpage that you just opened. Each tab where independently functioning as they all have separate .exe or executables running at your system. I tried to look at the task bar, and there are indeed separate chrome.exe running for each tab.

This is the reason me pulling back from firefox. I used firefox because of its already available useful plugins, but it always crashes, on my experience, it crashes on about every other day. Sure firefox offers a "Restart Firefox" kind of thing, but all of your login data will be lost.

Chrome is still a little late on the browsing business compare to firefox, but it being open source means that it can have all the plugins firefox had. Looking forward for that day.

Brand

The very reason why chrome had gained popularity long before it was released, simply because Google made it. When something is done with a known reputable online company, you can’t really just deny its power, much more if it’s something from the leading search engine on the net (not to mention that it was funded by a billion worth of company, that is).



How about you? Have you used google chrome browser? What do you think?

New Born Divas' Come Back Performance At Talentadong Pinoy

New Born Divas At Talentadong Pinoy Last July 17, 2010

Come back performance of New Born Divas

Now they got it this time!

Jennifer Maravilla, Katrina Velarde and Alyssa Quijano known as New Born Divas had now won at Talentadong Pinoy on July 17, 2010 episodes. After being beaten by "The Believers" who's now a hall of famer, this girl group was again given a second chance to perform on Talentadong Pinoy stage. And yeah, they got it this time.

Some critics said that the latest Talentadong Pinoy winner's talent is very common, the very reason why they lost against The Believers last time. Though I somewhat agree on that, but this is not just about singing, this is about HOW they sing. HOW, the very word that should define their performace on stage.

Their stage presence, their energy, how they wave their hands (especially Jennifer), how they throw timings, choreography and many more rises them from the common singing-dancing girl group out there.

With that I created this post, dedicated for them.

To prove that, here's a video I uploaded on youtube. I got my humble N70 phone to record them on our crt monitor tv screen, here it is, enjoy!

How To Create Sub Domain On Godaddy.com

Tutorial On How To Create Sub Domain On Godaddy.com

Set-up sub domain on godaddy.com - with full screenshots!

According to consumersearch.com, one sixth (1/6) of domains are registered on godaddy.com. Of course it is, the positive reviews scattered along the internet affirmed that data. The very reason, why this domain is registered at godaddy.com.

About one-sixth of all domains are registered through GoDaddy, which is twice as many as its nearest competitor.
-consumersearch.com

Now, that means that this post will give benefit to the one sixth who owns a domain, which of course wants to create a sub domain.

So, if you are my co-godaddy.com, here's how you can create your subdomain. This steps shown below are the same steps I made when setting-up my www.anime.keywordspeak.com sub domain. As you can see, it's all up and running. Meaning that the steps below are proven to be correct.

I set-up this sub domain on my blogger, but that's another story. Anyway, how to set-up a sub domain at godaddy.com? let's begin.

1.) Click on the "Advance Details" link as sown in the figure below.

2.)On the next window, Under "Total DNS" section, click on the "Total DNS Control" link.

3.) On the next window, at the "CNAMES (Aliases)" section, click on the "Add New CNAME Record" button.

4.) Enter your desired subdomain at the "Enter an Alias Name" textbox.

6.) Click on the "OK" button and you are done.

As you can see, I used this subdomain for my blog hosted at blogger.com set as a custom domain. If you want to learn how to setup custom domain using blogger.com, read my previous article entitled Use Your Own Custom Domain To Your Blogger.Com Blog.

Note: Godaddy.com interface windows may upgrade, but the steps stated above should be the same.

For the meantime, here's a clean video tutorial by Franco Gonzalez regarding our topic. The video was created way back April 2008, and that's more than two years ago, that's why Franco used an old godaddy.com interface. But as I have said earlier, the steps doesn't have much difference at all. Here's the youtube video tutorial.

Storm Caloy most updated position, speed, maximum wind and direction

July 2010 Philippines storm.



Storm Caloy is the name assigned for the third storm that would hit the Philippines islands. As was expected, bagyong caloy had again caused fears among Filipinos, especially to those areas where the typhoon was reported to cross over.

The bagyong caloy as reported by the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Service Administration or PAGASA could be one of the most dangerous typhoon of the country.


Just like the other storm that came to our country this year, I hope that this storm wouldn't going to hurt anyone seriously. PAGASA should really issue warning advice as early as possible to avoid all possible tragedy that could mark on our memory.

Adsense Earnings - Three Dollars Per Day On Adsense

My First Three Dollars Per Day Figure On Google Adsense Earnings

A short story of a first timer on having a three dollars per day with google adsense

Just when I had announced that I am now earning a dollar per day on google adsense last July 8, 2010 on my post entitled "One Dollar Per Day On Adsense Earnings", I then bragged me having a frequent two dollars earning per day via google adsense, then on my post "How To Get Two $2 Dollars Per Day On Adsense | Adsense Earnings". But today is a little different, since I saw an unfamiliar figure on my google adsense dashboard.

Today is my first time having a three dollars $3 per day on my adsense earnings. Now wasn't that something to blog about?! Not actually impressive on the eyes of the pros, but no one can stop newbies like me to get excited on a positive improvements like this one.

Three dollars $3 a day, again I would like to repeat, wasn't that a big deal!
Bragging mode here :p

Today, I realized that I need to move my goal a little higher. I would like to target a three point thirty three dollars $3.33 per day on my earning at google adsense. This would let me receive the minimum payment amount monthly.

FYI, three dollars on our country isn't a joke since the dollar - peso conversion here on the Philippines is somewhere in 1:47. That means that 3 US dollars would equal to one hundred and forty one Philippines peso (Php.141).

Just when my officemates and friends are doing our daily routine, mine is a little different because I am spending my day with my blog waiting to be viewed, to earn and most especially to help other with my post. Now, is there anymore rewarding than that?!


Secrets - Secrets -Secrets
There are lots of websites that offers thousands of earnings in just five minutes, offering programs, ebook tutorials about their Ten Guaranteed Simple Steps on how to make money online fast. Secrets Revealed as their catch lines said.

On my case, once I read lines like these, I immediately close the tab. Because online earnings has no shortcuts, so scrap those get-rich online schemes you have been tempted to join, because there's nothing true in them.

Earning online means work, or lot of work that is. This doesn't just mean to create a blog and just wait to see money rolls in. For me, dedication and commitment is the keyword of being successful online. I am not yet successful but I personally believe that I am heading to that direction.

So, there's no secrets, on my case, I got this three dollars today because I did a lot of hardwork from the past. And that's the only thing you should also do, create a blog, study SEO, and apply to affiliate programs like adsense.

With that, I am celebrating this day. Let this post serves as a peg mark for my online journey.

Adsense CTR And eCPM | CTR & eCPM Explained

What Is Adsense CTR And eCPM?

CTR (Click Through Rate)
First we have CTR or Click Through Rate. This is calculated in percentage to measure how many times in average are your adsense ads being click in relation to the adsense impression on your site. For example, If your adsense units were shown 100 times (this means that your site generates 100 age views), and your ads were click 15 times, then your click through rate or CTR is 15%.

Logically if your site generated a 200 pageviews and still gets 15 clicks, then your average CTR is 7.5%. That's easy to understand, then there's eCPM.


eCPM (Effective Cost Per Thousand Impressions)
The acronym doesn't really respond to the full meaning, but from the word itself, this figure simply shows the average estimation on how much do you earn per thousand of ad impression to your site.

I did misunderstood this before. I thought that if my eCPM rises, my earnings will also rise, right? But I later discovered that that's not the way it is calculated.

eCPM is just a figure of estimation on how much do you earn on your ads per thousand of impression. For example, if your site generates a thousand impressions, and that impressions generated 30 adsense clicks, with this let's say you earn 4 dollars, your eCPM will then be calculated base on the four dollars for that impressions. Then the next day, you also get the same page views (impressions) but got 6 dollars (maybe because the ads served on that post is higher), then you'll get a different eCPM value for that day.

This is just simply means that your eCPM just respond on the actual earning that your site is generating.

I just laid this as I did understand CTR and eCPM rather than bore you with formula calculations.

So, did I missed anything or are my understanding incorrect?
This is as I have understood them, please feel free to affirmed or correct me.
I'm humbly opening the comments for any reactions you can make.

Meanwhile, not directly related to this post, but here's Lisa Irby's talk about adsense.

Office 2007 SP2 Download | Microsoft Office Update

Download Free Microsoft Office 2007 Update | SP2 Upgrade

Service pack 2 (SP2) is now available for ms office 2007

The newer version of office is now out, the Office 2010. Based on my experience as an IT on our company, some files are having an issue between 2010 to both 2003 and 2007 versions.

With this reason, as I believe, Microsoft made the service pack 2 (SP2) for the office 2007. This as I would expect will close the issues with the other versions.

Still need to try this on some terminals that use Office 2007.

Microsoft office team officially announced the two main reason for the update:

This download includes two types of fixes:
* Previously unreleased fixes that were made specifically for this service pack.
o In addition to general product fixes, this includes improvements in stability, performance, and security.
o You can find out more information in Knowledge Base Article 953195, where product-specific changes are described.

Are anyone also having a problem with office 2007's successor, or is it just me?
(I have this feelings that Bill is just picking me, you know)
Let's all try this update from microsoft, and get back here for your result.
Tell us what happen.

Get the office 2007 service pack two here.

iPed - Product Features, Specifications And Price | iPed Philippines

iPed Review | Where To Buy iPed In The Philippines

iPed Features | iPed Specifications | iPed Price

China Price: $105
Philippines price: $130
USA : $150
Online (chinagrabber.com): $147

Apple's iPad had created technological boom as it figured to 33,000 unit sales per day, according to informationweek.com. iPad indeed is a certified blockbuster on tablet computer sales.

That's iPad, sure you have heard about it. But here comes iPed (or aPad) from Shenzhen, province of China, yes that's the same place where iPad's and iPod Touch's biggest manufacturing plant is based, the Foxconn. iPed looks very much like the original iPad. Sure they have named their own brand, technically speaking. But it's so obvious that this tablet pc is trying to hijack iPad's market.

I've seen the actual item performance (watch the video below), and it's far from impressive. And knowing that it came China makes me more doubtful.

But what's making this copycat item noisy is not its feature, not its specification, but its price. Simply because you can buy yours at $105 if you're on China, but you can buy online at chinagrabber.com for on $147.

Anyway, here what you can get for this iPed tablet pc.

- Operating System: Google Android OS v1.6
- RAM: 128MB DDR2 800Mhz
- CPU: VIA MW8505 600MHz
- Display: 8" 4:3 widescreen 800x480 high-brightness TFT LCD
- Touch Control: Full size touch operation, Sliding menu, Functional icon dragging
- Storage: 2GB
- Orientation Sensor: automatic steering display screen
- LAN:802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi CERTIFIED network
- Sound Effect: Stereo speakers device, Built-in microphone
- Supports High-speed SD card (maximum: 32GB)

Specification:
- SD x 1 (supports up to 32G SDHC)
- 30 pin interface
- Stereo Audio out x 1
- Microphone in x 1
- 2 x USB2.0 Interface
- ATF card interface


Features:
Desktop: Android, automatically , E-book and Office word processing, document to Go(Word, Excel, PPT, PDF), Support E-book function. Web browsing: Google chrome-lite Browser UCWEB Browser. Communication Sofware: Fring, Skyepout can call local call/long-distance call/overseas call and mobile call. Game: G-sensor game, Classic game, Touch game. Automatic screen rotation: Four-Direction Rotate screen. Note Paper: desktop tools, support 1x1~4x4 custom size. Clock: desktop tools, Analog Clock, Support change skin.


Multimedia Codes:
- MP3/Audio Format
- AVI (Motion JPEG) / Video Format
- Word, Excel, Mail & PDF READER
- Online Video


Accessories:
- Wall charger
- Cable and usb adpter
- Dimensions: 190.5x118.5x14.7mm
- Weight:332g


Running with outdated Android oeprating system, version 1.6 (now 3.X). Unstable motion feel, unsmooth touch screen capability, warranty issues and many more. Reviews with iPed isn't really convincing buying one. But who cares, as most people said, with its price of 150 dollars, compare to 499 starting price of iPad. That's a lot less than half the price.

Price, the very reason why this degraded iPad carbon copy makes it hot.

Do you own one? Please share it with us.

Meanwhile here's the video for iPed tablet pc:

Pacquiao had agreed to Mayweather's bragging condition, but as soon as Pacquiao's camp announced that Manny agreed to the condition, Mayweather told press that he would have a two to three years vacation, WTF - What The Fight (smile)!

Top Rank Promotion's founder and CEO, Bob Arum said that they already had sent the contract to Mayweather's camp. The contract was also accepted by Mayweather's Golden Boy Promotion where Manny Pacquiao's signiture on it. The only thing that would settle the match is Mayweather's signiture on it.

But yeah, he needs to take a three years break. I believe that he just want to enjoy his last three years of undefeated title. Don't blame him, I might do the same thing myself too, heheheee.

Meanwhile here are some quotations I collected:

"Kahit sino ang ilagay sa harap ko, lalabanan ko,"
-Pacquiao

"We're waiting on Floyd. Floyd has to decide whether or not he's going to fight this year or next year or not at all. It's up to him. He isn't up to any obligation. We want the fight this year, and if he doesn’t take the fight this year, then we’ll fight somebody else."
-Bob Arum

"I think the only question is whether Mayweather is prepared to fight now. "He may say he’s had his fight for the year and that’s it and that we’ll address it again next year. He might say that. I don’t know. I don’t know. But that’s what I’m hypothesizing.
-Bob Arum

"It’s up to Mayweather if he wants to fight this year or next year."
-Bob Arum

"Well its all because of one thing…. Mayweather is a scaredy monkey who really would not want to fight Manny Pacquiao like a man. basterd!
-watchpacquiaovsmayweatheronline.com

Yeah, we're all tired and sick hearing this endless negotiation. But we can't do anything, cowards hide, not fight (or take a vacation sometimes).
