Tropical Storm Sendong

2011-12-24T19:01:00.000-08:00

Tropical Storm Sendong (international name: Washi) ravaged Mindanao, slamming it with devastating rains and unleashing flash floods and landslides that have left a horrifying trail of destruction. As of 12PM, the death toll has reached 720 (Cagayan De Oro 346, Iligan City 279, Bukidnon 47, Negros Oriental 37, Lanao del Norte 9, Compostela Valley 5, Zamboanga del Norte 3, Surigao del Sur 1). Most of the dead were asleep in the middle of the night on Friday when raging floodwaters pounded their homes from rivers and cascaded
from mountain slopes following 12 straight hours of heavy rains in Mindanao. Drowning has been identified as the main cause of death. Sendong affected 21 municipalities, 78 barangays and 13,924 families (63,779 persons), with 245 injured and 807 reported missing. 3,422 houses were totally or partially damaged and there are still 38,332 persons housed in evacuation centers to date.
There are currently 7,431 persons in 4 evacuation centers in Iligan City, which was consumed by flashfloods last night after the heavy downpour of rains. Cagayan De Oro, which has now been placed undera state of calamity, experienced 180 mm of rainfall in less than 24 hours, which has led to massivefloods in 23 of its 80 barangays, leaving about 20,000 residents in evacuation centers. Prior to theonslaught of Sendong in Zamboanga del Norte, about 143 persons had already evacuated their houseswhich were destructed by flash floods that swept the municipality of Polanco as well as Dipolog andDapitan cities. Dapitan River had overflown early yesterday morning which flooded several barangaysin Dapitan.
Philippine Red Cross (PRC) maintains strict 24-hour monitoring of all situations in Mindanao, whilenearly 700 PRC staff and volunteers deployed in the field are conducting detailed assessments. Searchand rescue teams have been mobilized and hot meals have been prepared and distributed in evacuationcenters. Welfare desks, psychosocial support and first aid stations have been situated in the evacuationcenters for affected families. PRC has provided support by giving food packs, sleeping materials,hygiene kits, dinnerware, water containers, body bags and slippers.
Sendong is the 19th tropical cyclone to lash the Philippines this year. As we wage this battle againstdisasters, we are appealing for immediate cash assistance to continue providing relief and recoveryefforts for all affected communities. We are counting on your support to be able to provide food, non-fooditems (including kitchen ware, dinner sets, cleaning materials, latrines, medicine, livelihood programs andshelter) and our services to the most vulnerable Filipinos in the hardest hit cities and provinces.
We appreciate your generosity and continued support to the Philippine Red Cross. Thank you!

Cagayan de Oro flood 2011

2011-12-23T09:37:00.000-08:00

CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY, Misamis Oriental, Dec. 18 (PIA) -– The death toll due to flooding in the city of Cagayan de Oro now rose to 252.
This was according to the official report the Regional Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (RDRRMC) region 10 office at 5:00 a.m today.

Twenty three (23) persons were already identified while identities of the other 229 died are yet to be established. The bodies are now at the different funeral homes in the city.

RDRRMC said all the immediate kin of the reported fatalities are currently being attended by the concerned local government unit and disaster council in the city.

Office of Civil Defense(OCD)Regional Director Ana Cañeda said 22 barangays in the city were affected with flashfloods leaving many residents trapped on the rooftop and walls of their homes, power and water outrages.

While some residents took refuge on trees, others had to climb nearby storey buildings to avoid being swept away by the flood waters. Buildings and household items such as television sets and fridges were destroyed and swept away by the flood waters.

The heavy downpour, that started about 4:00 p.m. Friday and lasted until about 3:00 a.m. Saturday, brought almost every activity in the capital city to a halt.

Some businesses had to close down because the flood waters had taken over their premises and also of the power and water outages.

Walls were broken down while wooden structures and even some buildings, particularly those on water courses, were destroyed by the floods.

Military personnel and other rescue teams used boats to rescue some of the trapped residents, especially in areas where flooding was very extensive.

Cañeda, on the other hand, said due to communication problems as a result of power outages, cities of Valencia, Iligan and Ozamiz are yet to submit their reports and damages are still to be determined.

RDRRMC is led by Office of Civil Defense (OCD)-Northern Mindanao, Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG)-10, National Economic Development Authority (NEDA)-10 and other line agencies of the government including military and police commanders.

The OCD, RDRRMC, and all concerned branches of the government, including the private sectors are now joining hands and efforts in giving relief assistance to the flood victims.

Sendong, the 19th storm to hit the Philippines this year, has made another landfall in the vicinity of Puerto Princesa city and is now heading towards West Philippine Sea. (PIA-10)

Hans Brumann, Swiss by birth, Filipino by choice

2011-12-04T16:25:00.000-08:00

THE MAN

Hans Brumann, Swiss by birth, Filipino by choice, is the Philippine's leading jewelry designer.

Born into a baker's family, Hans wanted to do something different, something with passion, something that would stir his imagination. Jewelry making - combining both his creative and technical flair - seemed to match his aspirations. Defying family tradition, Hans began his apprenticeship in Zurich in 1957, followed by formal schooling at the Fachhochschule in Schwaebisch-Gmuend, Germany. His next career step was a stint in 1965 with Andrew Gima in London, during the heady days of the swinging 60s. Later he returned to Zurich to work for Paul Binder and Zurbuchen AG. In 1967, his search for inspiration and excellence led him to the Philippines to work with the most prestigious firm at that time, La Estrella del Norte. Recognizing his skills and ideas could only truly flourish in his own company, he formed Hans Brumann, Inc. in 1976. Since Paying tribute to other art forms, Hans initiated collaborative exhibitions with other celebrated artists in the Philippines - sculptors and painters - fusing jewelry, wood, glass, and other elements. Then his pieces have been synonymous with style and his collections highly sought after. His work is distinctive - a strong minimalist approach, never ornate or overdone - a reflection of his impeccable style. "Jewelry is not a fashion fad. Pieces should be created to last a lifetime if possible" according to Hans. These collaborations keep alive what I think is the most important element in the making of jewelry - the quest for new ideas"

THE COMPANY

Founded in 1978, Hans Brumann Inc. (HBI) started as a small jewelry shop in Makati that catered to Manila's elite and foreign expatriates. It was an exclusive shop that dealt more on made-to-order items designed by Mr. Hans Brumann, rather than retail purchases. All jewelry made were timeless masterpieces with contemporary designs and exceptional craftsmanship set in platinum, 18k or 14k yellow, gold, white gold or both. Initial concentration and specialty were in pieces made with South Sea Pearls, Mother of Pearl and platinum. As time passed, due to significant achievements leading to increased orders and clientele, Hans Brumann Inc. grew and expanded with its second outlet at the Lobby Level of Shangri-La Hotel Makati on August 1993.

In October 1999, HBI moved into new projects and ventures. Together with another Filipino based jeweler, HBI had joined forces with Jewelers Consortium of the Philippines in New York and started its exportation to the USA. Exhibitions locally and abroad that showcased the best hand crafted and designed pieces were featured, thus the realization that there was a demand for Philippine hand made quality jewelry. In fact, with the boom of shopping malls in the Philippines, we have now opened two more new outlets: HEMM Hans Brumann located in Rockwell Center, Makati in November 2001 and HEMM Hans Brumann located at The Podium, Pasig City in November 2002.

Today, Hans Brumann Inc. is still continuing its services and making each HBI jewelry owner proud to wear its products.

Parasat Cable TV

2011-12-01T21:10:00.000-08:00

Parasat Cable TV, Inc. started as an electronics retail store and repair shop established in 1976 by Engr. Elpidio M. Paras. It was known then as Paras Industrial Systems. It also offered customized music cassette tape recording and video (betamax) rental. As an electronic shop, Paras Electro installed sound system of various disco houses in Mindanao. To name a few, Salamin Disco and Alta Tierra in Cagayan de Oro, Hotel Rio in Iloilo and Xenon disco in Davao. In Cagayan de Oro, he introduced the concept of putting a TV/VCR in restaurants, showing the latest sports and boxing championships, way before cable TV became a common fixture in every home.

In 1985, Engr. Paras started manufacturing satellite dishes until finally in 1986 his satellite receiving system was able to capture the EDSA Revolution, which was being beamed for the first time worldwide by CNN. This provided Cagayanons the first glimpse of the media revolution wherein live events can now be beamed across the globe in real time.

He then started building bigger dishes to capture the very weak signals beamed by the early Intelsat series. In just a matter of three years, rich businessmen and entrepreneurs from all over the Philippines began ordering satellite dishes from Engr. Paras.

In 1989 thru and Executive Order 205 signed by the Pres. Cory Aquino, the cable industry was deregulated. It was this year when the cable operators fledged. Cable operators all over the country started to order satellite dishes from Engr. Paras. Among the first cable operators to order was Sen, Ramon Magsaysay, Jr. the senator’s cable operation covered the provinces of Olongapo, Bicol and Batangas.

In 1991, with an initial investment of P200,000 Engr. Paras established Parasat Cable TV, Inc. it was (and still is) the forerunner of cable TV in Mindanao. Parasat Cable started its operation at the backyard of the residence of Engr. Paras with less than 10 employees, mostly fresh graduates and on-the-job trainees from technical schools. It began by installing cable lines in the subdivision where they were located, offering only 12 channels. It has since expanded its coverage in Cagayan de Oro City and nearby municipalities. Parasat also acquire cable companies nearby areas.

To date, Parasat Cable TV has coverage in the following areas: entire Cagayan de Oro City, municipalities of Opol and Tagoloan. It has established branches in Malaybalay and San Carlos (Negros Occidental) Cities. It has also formed partnerships with other cable operators in Ginoog City and the municipalities of Balingasag, Don Carlos and Valencia. It is continuously expanding its coverage to the east and west sides of Misamis Oriental.

Parasat Cable carries most of the major programs available for cable viewing. Among the programs currently being carried are CNN, ESPN, STA, HBO, CINEMAX, ANC, VIVA, PINOY BLOCKBUSTER and a number of national and international programs.

It may seem obvious to drink during heavy physical activity. But many people underestimate the magnitude of their fluid loss. It is very difficult to avoid dehydration during a long race or when working in the heat because of the rate of sweat loss usually exceeds the rate of absorption of ingested fluids. The maximum rate of fluid absorption by the gastrointestinal tract during exercise is approx 800 ml (27 oz) per hour. The rate of fluid loss through seating can easily reach 1 liter (34 oz per hour and soar to 2 liters per hour under very strenuous conditions thus, it is not possible to drink enough to stay hydrated and dehydration will occur despite drinking plenty of fluid.

So guzzling a liter of water every hour, besides causing discomfort and bloating will not replenish lost liquids. Also, realize that the more dehydrated you get, the harder it is for your digestive tract to absorb what you drink.

In addition to the need to replenish lost water, you must also replenish lost electrolytes. An electrolyte deficiency can be just as dangerous as a water deficiency. Drinking only water, without a source of electrolyte, can dilute the remaining electrolytes in your bloodstream causing hyponatremia, low blood sodium.

Electrolyte deficiency can cause severe reactions, which can send you the hospital or even worse, during exercise, in the heat. More salt is lost in sweat per hour than is usually replaced by food and fluid by commercial sports drinks. Many athletes who rely solely on water and sport drinks for hydration are, to some level, prone to hyponatremia. It is estimated that up to 30% of the finishers of the Hawaiian Iron Man Triathlon are both dehydrated and hyponatromic. Ultra distance athletes have similar track record.

Sweat contains between 2.25-3.4 grams of salt (Sodium Chloride) per liter and the rate of perspiration during strenuous exercise can easily average 1 liter per hour. Experts recommended that during a long, hot race, you should aim for a total sodium intake of about 1 gram per hour. To get 1 gram (1000 mg) of sodium in your body, you would need to drink 2-1/2 liters (84 ounces) of Gatorade every hour! To get one gram of sodium from table salt, you would need to ingest 2.5 grams (1 gram from sodium and 15 grams from chloride). A teaspoon of salt weighs approx. 66 grams. So you would need to consume 3/8 teaspoon of salt with a liter of water every hour.

To make sure the salt and water are properly absorbed, the beverage also needs to contain 4-8% sugar. But the beverage should not be too sweet. Sugar levels above 10% are poorly absorbed and can cause diarrhea. Commercial beverage and sports drink come up short on sodium and often have too much sugar. Coconut water is a better option. Although 1 liter of coconut water may or may not a full gram of sodium, extra sodium can be added, if desired, either in the water or separately. In addition, coconut water also replenishes lost trace of minerals, has the proper sugar content for optimum absorption, supplies amino acids and other nutrients which may also support proper hydration and to top it off, tastes good!

Daniel Mondschain was introduced to coconut water while training for his 5th Marathon. He said "Coconut water improved my performance. At first. I drank it only after my runs. I realized I was recovering more quickly and with less soreness."

Impressed with the results, he began drinking coconut water instead of water or sports beverage during his workouts. He drank only coconut water throughout the final 2 months of training and during the marathon. The result? "I set a personal record and beat my last time by 7 minutes. I had more energy, less fatigue and less pain the final miles and that made me see the difference.

Coconut water is now a permanent fixture in his training regimen. Commercial sports drink contains water, sugar (sucrose syrup), yellow ft (a chemical dye), ester gum (a stabilizer to keep oils in suspension in water used mostly in making varnish and soap), and Brominated vegetable oils. Brominated Vegetable Oil is a vegetable that is chemically bonded to Bromine, an emulsifier used in citrus flavored drinks to help flavors stay suspended and produce the cloudy appearance. Bromine is a halogen that blocks Iodine utilization in the thyroid and other tissues in the body. The adverse effect is usually fatigue, headaches, tremors, memory loss, hallucinations and seizures.

Go Negosyo

2011-11-28T19:26:00.000-08:00

WHAT IS GO NEGOSYO?

Go Negosyo is the advocacy of the Philippine Center for Entrepreneurship (PCE), a non-stock, non-profit organization that advocates for a change in MINDSET and ATTITUDE. We believe that Filipinos can address poverty in the country by engaging in entrepreneurship and developing an optimistic, passionate, creative and innovative, resourceful, diligent and persevering character. We encourage everyone to take charge and make the most of their resources and abilities by utilizing and transforming these into viable enterprises.

Through our Caravans, Negosems, multi-media (TV and web) campaigns and books, Go Negosyo hopes to demystify entrepreneurial success and popularize entrepreneurship as an alternative to unemployment, job-seeking or migration. We are a partner in improving entrepreneurship education, and in providing a marketplace of ideas, innovations, business models and best practices. In short, we aim to catalyze the development of entrepreneurship in the country. An entrepreneurial culture would lead to an entrepreneurial nation and, consequently, to improved economy for the country.

Go Negosyo do not endorse a particular kind of business or franchise. Instead, we provide links to our partner entrepreneurs’ businesses, to business opportunities, to entrepreneurship-related training programs, and to funding sources. Hoping to generate competitive Filipino entrepreneurs, we seek to be the institution that brings together all key stakeholders and enablers of different entrepreneurship programs.

HOW WE STARTED

After being appointed in 2005 by President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo as the Presidential Consultant for Entrepreneurship, Joey Concepcion envisioned a movement that would advocate for a positive and enterprising attitude among Filipinos -- a mindset that would help them move up in life. With the help of like-minded trustees, Go Negosyo was born.

Since its conception, Go Negosyo went on to forge partnerships not only with business corporations and entrepreneurs but also with academic institutions, non-government organizations (including business chambers and professional organizations), microfinance institutions, government agencies, and local government units. Creating linkages with members of both private and public sectors allowed us to increase Filipinos’ access to a negosyo support system, and facilitate a nationwide movement.

It was the formation of partnerships that allowed Go Negosyo to embark on a full-blown advocacy that has reached out to hundreds of thousands of Filipinos. What started as an idea quickly snowballed into a massive movement. Within four years, Go Negosyo was able to embark on over 30 full-blown Caravans all over the country, produce a TV show, create a website portal for entrepreneurs, and launch bestselling books (three volumes of inspirational stories of entrepreneurs and a how-to-start-a-business book). We gained widespread presence in the print media through Mr. Concepcion’s weekly column AskGoNegosyo in Philippine Star and through the publication of entrepreneurs’ stories in the front page. Every month, we’re invited to conduct talks on starting a business, and we’re often featured in TV and radio shows. We even have a global audience as our TV show is aired in GMA’s international channels.

OUR DREAM

We want to create an entrepreneurial climate for the Philippines: one that would lead to a country of enterprising and progressive Filipinos who are optimistic and empowered, and who don’t rely on dole-outs and are in control of their destinies. We hope to forge a country of smart, innovative and value-adding entrepreneurs by inspiring and by teaching.

Our motto has always been to “teach a nation how to fish, feed the nation many lifetimes”. The statement represents the collective effort of all our partners to foster a culture of enterprise and promote innovation and the best business practices in the country.

Filipino Online Art Gallery - PINOYARTE.COM

2011-11-24T14:59:00.000-08:00

Because we own and have capitalized our inventory, we need not conform to the trade practice of adding on margins to existing industry price levels for consigned artwork. Moreover, we have the advantage of low acquisition costs and therefore, low selling prices.

Ours is not the typical gallery with expensive showrooms, sales and office personnel, overhead and exhibits to mount, and other overhead. As an online gallery, we are more flexible with our prices because our operating costs are negligible.

While others are out to promote the works and careers of selected artists, our goal as a Pinoy gallery in cyberspace is to provide a ready market source for decided buyers who are looking for the best prices for artworks of specific artists or genre. In short, we depend not on maximum profits, but on fast turnover as a way to unload the sizeable art inventory in the warehouse of PINOYARTE.COM.

PINOYARTE.COM presents several pieces of each series or theme of an artist’s works -- arranged by color or on a thematic basis -- to make it easier for the browser searching for specific colors, themes, subjects or art styles.

As you travel through the PINOYARTE.COM website, you are first introduced to each artist and his development as one, the highlights of his career, as well as his stature in the art world -- as seen through his works spanning several years.

Each artist’s works are then presented series by series or theme by theme with variations within each series or a theme, for greater visual convenience.

We are presently highlighting the works of twenty-two (22) contemporary Filipino artists, with the number of works offered ranging from a high of 40 pieces to a low of 4 to 5 pieces, per artist.

Subsequent changes in our website will feature works of other artists in our collection until the entire inventory of over a thousand art pieces are featured. Happy treasure hunting !

Pinoy Steel - The best handforged Filipino blades right to your door

2011-11-23T13:51:00.000-08:00

Pinoy Steel endeavors to promote traditional Filipino and Southeast Asian blade forging and knife making while helping the craftsmen and their families live better lives. We aim to show the world Philippines craftsmen continue to produce quality knives and swords that can stand with the best out there.

Pinoy Steel was started in 2010. Throughout my childhood and adolescence, I had heard of the infamous Batangas balisong, but I could not get my hands on one no matter how hard I tried. I finally got my chance in 2009 when I came across several in a small handicrafts store in Manila. They were rough and far from the best quality available, but I didn't know that at the time and I bought two. They are still, today, among the most loved knives in my collection.

As my travels around the Philippines became more frequent and my collection grew, I realized the blades I was acquiring had to be shared. I also saw that Philippines blacksmiths and their families needed help. I am blessed to be able to both promote the industry's products and help the men and women that earn their livelihoods through crafting the best blades the Philippines has to offer. Pinoy Steel now proudly offers carefully selected blades and products from all around the Philippines, as well as other Southeast Asian nations.

Living overseas and living alone meant that I had to learn how to cook for myself. From learning how to cook, it was only a natural progression to learn how to bake; and chocolate is one of the primary ingredients that I often use in baking. Working with chocolate got me to experience and discover the vast differences in chocolates available. It is no surprise that the better quality chocolates often leads to better tasting products.

As I delve more into the history of chocolate, I found that although European countries are often more well-known for their chocolates than other counterparts in other parts of the world, no European country actually grow their own cacao beans as their climate doesn't allow it. The cacao plant can only grow within 20 degrees north and south of the equator...just like in the Philippines, where I was born and raised.

So it got me thinking of making it right at the source. After all, the main ingredients that goes into a good chocolate is basically just cacao beans and sugar--both of which are readily available here. All that it needs is for someone to craft it to the highest quality. I decided to be that person, went home from overseas and the rest is what you see now.
At our factory, each batch of chocolate is produced in small quantities (actually, it would be "micro" in industry standards) and overseen personally by people instead of machines. We take great care, time and effort to ensure that each step starting from the selection of the cacao bean to the final step of molding and packing, we are only offering the best we can offer.

Ambot ah! Travel Blog

2011-11-18T17:15:00.000-08:00

My name is Marcos (a.k.a chymera) and I am a travel blogger, photographer, and a registered nurse. Ambot-ah is my personal blog and aggregate of my virtual life, where people can keep up-to-date with my latest online activity. I’m currently working as a professional blogger and freelancing as a photographer. I finished my nursing degree in one of the top performing nursing schools in the Philippines but I’m currently not actively pursuing my profession as a nurse.

Blogging has become my bread and butter, fueling my travel lifestyle. My “work” basically involves visiting different places and writing about it online. While it may be perceived as one of the most stress free jobs in the world, being successful at blogging professionally, as I’ve come to experience, takes time, skill, and dedication. If you’re interested about my life as a travel blogger, photographer, and a nurse, keep visiting (or subscribe to) Ambot-ah for my travel journals, photo ops, blogging tips, life learnings and discoveries.
