I tried so hard to do everything I could to get back into your center but nothing I did worked...&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;We continued to drift further and further apart...&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The part of me that you needed most was so lost and depleted &lt;br&gt;I couldn't even call for help...&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I did not know where to turn &lt;br&gt;So I fell deep inside myself...&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;So far at times that I could barley even see &lt;br&gt;My world began to go dark without your light...&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The pain became so unbearable that all I could do was hide...&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I never meant to leave you alone but soon I was so lost in a place so dark &lt;br&gt;I could no longer even find myself...&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The further we drifted apart the darker it became...&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;When all your light was gone I gave up hope and began to die...&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;All my shame became a great big lie...&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Some how some way if I believed we were ok&lt;br&gt;Then things would work out maybe some day &lt;br&gt;Your light would come back to me...&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Then I would again see how your gravity meant so much to me...&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I would be drawn near and held closely &lt;br&gt;Back to that place where nothing else mattered...&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Just you just me and the love we had together...&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Unfortunately when the light in my world began to shin again and I could see a path for me to be free of the darkness you were nowhere to be found...&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I looked and looked as my world became brighter and brighter&lt;br&gt;But still I could not see you...&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I did not know what to do and still felt so lost without you...&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Eventually my world was as bright as could be but still no gravity...&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I found my self to be lost in a world of light because my purpose was gone...&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Now it is just me learning to move on...&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;See this poem posted at GS Poetry:&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.gspoetry.com/you-were-the-center-of-my-everything-love-poems-454646.html"&gt;http://www.gspoetry.com/you-were-the-center-of-my-everything-love-poems-454646.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------&lt;br&gt;I dedicate this poem to Yvonne&lt;br&gt;

Although the version I have posted is a remix I created it seems more important to block my video and not the many 100% copyright infringements made by posting the original with the whole song or even other unlicensed videos with audio containing the entire composition. Some of which have been posted for more than 2 years. &lt;br&gt;Well please enjoy it if it still works by the time you get this post. Once they block the audio I will leave the video up with a swapped audio track.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If you have any comments about sampled music or this video please post comments.&lt;br&gt;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_yX3PK4dKkU&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Thank You&lt;br&gt;Ben Greer &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;--------------------&lt;br&gt;Featured Robots:&lt;br&gt;Nao humanoid robot&lt;br&gt;WowWee Femisapien&lt;br&gt;The SPEECYS 101C&lt;br&gt;----------------------------------------&lt;br&gt;Mr. Roboto&lt;br&gt;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mr._Roboto&lt;br&gt;----------------------------------------&lt;br&gt;Song - Cut&lt;br&gt;Mr. Roboto&lt;br&gt;Written by dennis deyoung&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;    &lt;!-- multiply:no_crosspost --&gt;&lt;p class='multiply:no_crosspost'&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1100766900979392175-7633653329777197983?l=pinoypipeline.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pinoypipeline.blogspot.com/feeds/7633653329777197983/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1100766900979392175&amp;postID=7633653329777197983' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1100766900979392175/posts/default/7633653329777197983'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1100766900979392175/posts/default/7633653329777197983'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pinoypipeline.blogspot.com/2009/06/domo-arigato-mr-roboto-real-dancing.html' title='Domo Arigato, Mr. Roboto - The real Dancing Robot'/><author><name>PhotoBen750</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02257190227869436105</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='19' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ORwH6twG2Kk/TDZ3cCRvNuI/AAAAAAAAM_g/k59JciQC590/S220/ben_what.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1100766900979392175.post-2466393764489317925</id><published>2009-06-11T19:46:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-06-11T23:50:58.149-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Kababayan Fest  at Californias Great America - Saturday, July 11th, 2009: Pimped Ad</title><content type='html'>  &lt;div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;object width="425" height="350"&gt;&lt;param name="allowScriptAccess" value="never"&gt;&lt;param value="http://youtube.com/v/ZL8oev-LomE" name="movie"&gt;&lt;embed allowscriptaccess="never" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://youtube.com/v/ZL8oev-LomE" width="425" height="350"&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Kababayan Fest - Saturday, July 11th, 2009: Pimped AdAt California's Great America in Santa Clara, CAhttp://kababayanfest.comKababayan Fest is one of the largest Filipino festivals on the West Coast.This year we are holding it at Californias Great America in Santa Clara, CA on Saturday, July 11th, 2009.

&lt;p class="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Over 90 Million Tagalog Speaking Filipinos Globally Can Now Use Friendster&lt;br&gt;  To Keep in Touch with Friends and Family&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA – January 27, 2009&lt;/strong&gt; – Friendster, Inc., a top 20 global website based on traffic* and the #1 social network in Asia, today announced that Friendster.com is available in Tagalog, the most popular language in the Philippines that is used by over 90 million people worldwide. Friendster’s mobile site &lt;a href="http://m.friendster.com/"&gt;m.friendster.com&lt;/a&gt; will also launch in Tagalog in the coming days. This new language addition on Friendster gives the 14 million Internet users in the Philippines and users around the world a greater choice of languages with which to navigate the site, share content and use Friendster’s complete set of social networking features.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Friendster.com now fully supports 11 languages – English, Bahasa Indonesian, Chinese (both Simplified and Traditional), Japanese, Korean, Malay, Spanish, Tagalog, Thai and Vietnamese. These languages represent over 70 percent of the world’s Internet users, or approximately a billion Internet users in total. Friendster’s mobile site &lt;a href="http://m.friendster.com/"&gt;m.friendster.com&lt;/a&gt; supports 7 languages – English, Bahasa Indonesian, Chinese (both Simplified and Traditional), Malay, Korean and Tagalog.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;“Over 90 percent of all Internet users in the Philippines are currently using Friendster, which is an order of magnitude larger than any other social network in the country. Launching support for Tagalog on the Friendster web and mobile sites will help us maintain our leadership position in the Philippines and within Filipino communities around the world,” said David Jones, vice president of global marketing at Friendster.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;79 million people in the Philippines – 85 percent of the total population of 93 million – are not yet using the Internet.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;“Friendster in Tagalog gives even more Filipinos a reason to get started online and join their friends and family on Friendster. And, for those Filipinos who don’t have regular access to a computer, they can join and enjoy Friendster via their mobile phone by visiting the &lt;a href="http://m.friendster.com/"&gt;m.friendster.com&lt;/a&gt; mobile site. We look forward to welcoming millions of Tagalog speakers to the Internet and to Friendster,” said Jones.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Users can set their language of choice on Friendster several ways through links at the top right of every page of the Friendster.com website, the “Settings” link at the website or mobile site, or the Languages link at the bottom of the homepage of the mobile site at &lt;a href="http://m.friendster.com/"&gt;m.friendster.com&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Friendster also announced today the ability for advertisers to target ads on Friendster based on the language preference of the Friendster user. With this new enhancement, advertisers can choose to target ads on Friendster via geographic location, age, gender and/or language preference. In the Philippines, for example, this will be particularly useful for advertisers to target ads in the Tagalog language to users who have chosen to use Friendster in Tagalog and ads in English to users who prefer to use Friendster in English.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Tagalog is spoken by more than 64 million Filipinos, or about 70 percent of the total population in the Philippines. Tagalog is spoken throughout the world outside of the Philippines and is most popular within Filipino ethnic groups. There are approximately 90 million Tagalog speakers globally, and it is the fifth most spoken language in the United States.**&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Friendster Leads in the Philippines&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt; In the Philippines, Friendster is the #1 social network, the #2 website and the #1 mobile site.*** Friendster is an order of magnitude larger than competitors in the Philippines.

Real Estate, as in the previous quarter, posted the fastest growth at 36.9 percent, boosted by the increased revenues from real estate projects, renting and leasing operations of giant supermalls and shopping centers nationwide.  This was followed by Manufacturing which accelerated by 15.3 percent and Finance, which grew by 14.3 percent.&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;On the other hand, Total Employment Index declined by 2.7 percent, its fifth consecutive decline since the third quarter of 2007.  This was pulled down by Mining and Quarrying, which posted its second double-digit decline of 13.8 percent.  Manufacturing and Electricity and Water, likewise fell by 4.9 percent and 0.7 percent, respectively. Minimal growths were recorded in Private Services, Trade, Real Estate and Transportation and Communications while Finance posted the fastest growth at 5.8 percent.&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;Total Compensation Index expanded by 7.3 percent from last year’s growth of 5.6 percent. This represents the salaries and wages, including benefits paid out by industries in cash and in kind.  Real Estate grew by 14.9 percent, its second double-digit growth since the first quarter of 2007, followed by Finance at 13.9 percent. All other sectors posted positive growths.&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;With the expanded growth of compensation and the continued decline in employment, total compensation per employee registered its first double-digit growth of 10.3 percent, an acceleration from the 6.0 percent it registered in the previous year. Robust growths were recorded for Mining and Quarrying (25.5 percent) and Real Estate (13.4 percent), while the rest posted positive growths.       &lt;/p&gt; This report is based on the February 2009 issue of the Quarterly  Economic Indices (QEI) of the Philippines. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;ESTRELLA V.

I have been a golfer all my life, and I have never seen anything like this. NOTHING. This is hard to comprehend. And it happened to my own father and my own brother too. Right in front of my eyes.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;My brother and I were playing golf at the South Course of Valley. We were on the 3rd hole, and we see two golf carts going past us, overtaking our flight, and setting up to tee off on the next hole. My dad goes up to them and asks them why they would do that, why they would overtake us without even asking for our permission. Golf etiquette 101. One of the guys says that they're with the flight in front of us. (So what? That doesn't give them the right to just pass us WITHOUT asking.) So, we go to the 5th hole. The flight behind us catches up with us, and asks us what caused the hold up. We said that this flight just slipped in front of our flight. So we complained to the marshall. We play the 5th hole and walk towards the next hole, where there is a teehouse, and both the flights in front of us were there, talking with the marshall. The mayor of Masiu City, Lanao del Sur talks with my dad. Things get heated up. Voices were raised. But never, in my wildest dreams, did I ever imagine that someone would pull out a punch. Apparently not. He attacks my father. His flightmates, maybe 2 or 3 of them, rush to his aid and beat up my father. My 56-year-old father. My younger brother and I could not just watch. We rushed to break the fight. My younger brother pleads to the mayor to please stop it. To not hurt my dad. To just stop. His words still ring through my head...&lt;em&gt;"Sorry na po, sorry na po...tama na...tama na po..." &lt;/em&gt;With his hands in front of his chest in a praying position. PLEADING. The mayor socks him in the face. My brother defended himself. My dad is still on the ground getting clobbered. My brother is the same way. I try to stop the fight, but all I can do is stop one person. There were 4 or 5 of them attacking now.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Someone breaks up the fight. I thought it was all over. The mayor shouts to his caddy: &lt;em&gt;"Hindi nila kami kilala! Sabihin mo nga sa kanila kung sino ako!" &lt;/em&gt;And believe me, I had no idea who this person was. But now I know. He's the person who, with 4 other men, beat up my 56-year-old father and my 14-year-old brother. He's the person who sacks a pleading 14-year-old kid in the face. He's a person who, I am sure, is gonna rot in hell.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I lash out, but my dad held me back. I was screaming my lungs out, shouting to this mayor, telling him about what he had done. I said: &lt;em&gt;"Nakakahiya kayo. Singkwenta'y sais anyos ang tatay ko. And kapatid ko kakatorse anyos. Anong ilalaban nila sayo?"&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br&gt;The mayor looks at my brother, point to his face, and says, &lt;em&gt;"Tatandaan kita!" &lt;/em&gt;And he tells me that my brother has a bad attitude and that I need to watch him. WHAT THE HELL?! So, my brother's bad for defending his father?!&lt;br&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br&gt;We leave. We walk to the clubhouse to file a complaint. My brother asks for a doctor. My dad could barely walk. Their group comes to the clubhouse, sees my brother. Once again my brother pleads, says sorry, and is crying. He was CRYING, for crissakes. But no. The relentless mayor still punches him in the face, and then sees my dad and goes after my dad again. Him and his friend pull my dad to the ground, pulls at his feet, and steps on him like he's dirt. I run to him and try to hold him back, holding him back by his shirt, while this other guy and this girl tries to stop me. She tells me to just stop it. I scream in her face "they're beating my father up and you want me to stop?!" I pull at his shirt--I don't let go. All I can see was my dad being trampled on. I didn't even see my brother getting beat up.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;People pull them away. I get my dad, and I saw my brother. His right ear was bleeding. I freaked out. I told the receptionists to bring my brother to the clinic. I pull my dad away. People were separating us.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;My mom and my older brother come. I tell her Bino's right ear is bleeding. They both look like they could kill. My dad holds my brother off, I hold off my mom. When I finally got my mom under control, my older brother gets away and I hold him off. Two of the mayor's bodyguards pull out guns. I embraced my brother from the back, just holding him back, crying. The receptionists came to us, crying, hugging me, my dad, and my mom, whispering to us to just leave. &lt;em&gt;"Maam, umalis na po kayo, may mga baril sila...Maam...umalis na po kayo please..."&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br&gt;I am pretty sure the Secretary of DAR did not take part in the fight, but he just watched all this happen. He watched two of his sons, as we figured out, the other guy was his son, too, beat up my father and my 14-year-old brother. He didn't do anything to stop it. And this person is what now? A cabinet member. A politician.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Sounds like something out of a movie, doesn't it? But this is what happened. TODAY. The day after Christmas. To my family. And all I ask for is JUSTICE. The people at Valley Golf did not seem to want to help us. None of the security guards even tried to stop the fight. Right in the clubhouse. I came back after the fight was over and talked to the receptionists. They say they did not see anything. The general manager of Valley Golf would not give us the names of the men who made my brother's ear bleed. It took him an hour. Maybe even more than that. He seemed to not want to help us. Because, we were against the SECRETARY OF THE DEPARTMENT OF AGRARIAN REFORM and the &lt;a href="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3028/2702182097_a1648051e4.jpg?v=0v=0"&gt;MAYOR OF MASIU CITY, LANAO DEL SUR&lt;/a&gt;. They were all scared.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The world has gone crazy. Two politicians beat up a defenseless 56-year-old father and his 14-year-old son. At a golf course. I swear to God, I thought golfers were decent people. You would think politicians were decent people. I guess not. I guess they gang up on 56-year-old men and beat up pleading 14-year-old kids.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Please pray for my dad, my brother and for my whole family. Please pray that we get JUSTICE. Oh God, please, give these people what they deserve.  &lt;/div&gt;   &lt;span class="post-author vcard"&gt; Posted by &lt;span class="fn"&gt;decidido&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="post-timestamp"&gt; at &lt;a class="timestamp-link" href="http://vicissitude-decidido.blogspot.com/2008/12/world-is-fucked-up.html" rel="bookmark" title="permanent link"&gt;&lt;abbr class="published" title="2008-12-26T08:34:00-08:00"&gt;8:34 AM&lt;/abbr&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/span&gt;   &lt;!-- multiply:no_crosspost --&gt;&lt;p class='multiply:no_crosspost'&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1100766900979392175-5670870446324506311?l=pinoypipeline.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pinoypipeline.blogspot.com/feeds/5670870446324506311/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1100766900979392175&amp;postID=5670870446324506311' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1100766900979392175/posts/default/5670870446324506311'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1100766900979392175/posts/default/5670870446324506311'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pinoypipeline.blogspot.com/2009/01/valley-golf-brawl-highlights-out-of.html' title='Valley Golf Brawl Highlights Out-of-control Filipino Politicians'/><author><name>PhotoBen750</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02257190227869436105</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='19' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ORwH6twG2Kk/TDZ3cCRvNuI/AAAAAAAAM_g/k59JciQC590/S220/ben_what.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1100766900979392175.post-4382909231664616798</id><published>2008-12-07T11:27:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-12-07T16:31:31.319-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Pacquiao vs De la Hoya - The Dream Match HL</title><content type='html'>  &lt;div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;object width="425" height="350"&gt;&lt;param name="allowScriptAccess" value="never"&gt;&lt;param value="http://youtube.com/v/Ba0fZ_nWn7I&amp;ap=%2526fmt%3D18" name="movie"&gt;&lt;embed allowscriptaccess="never" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://youtube.com/v/Ba0fZ_nWn7I&amp;ap=%2526fmt%3D18" width="425" height="350"&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Pacquiao faced Oscar De La Hoya on Saturday, December 6, 2008 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada in a so-called Dream Match.

   &lt;p&gt;In 2007, the total number of cellular mobile telephone (CMT) subscribers was estimated at 57.3 million, almost 15 times more than the number of fixed line telephone subscribers estimated at 3.9 million. Data from the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) also show that CMT subscription started to outnumber fixed line subscription in 2000 when it registered a ratio of 2 to 1. &lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;The 2007 level of CMT subscribers is 57.3% higher compared to its 2006 level of 42.9 million while the number of fixed line telephone subscribers only grew by 3.9% from 3.6 million in 2006. &lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;For the period 2000 to 2007, the number of CMT subscribers continuously increased at an annual average growth rate of 31.4% while that of fixed telephones only increased at 3.2%. &lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;NTC data further reveal that in 2007, CMT density was estimated at 65.93 per 100,000 population and fixed line telephone density in the country was estimated at 8.24 per 100,000 population. &lt;/p&gt;   &lt;div&gt;&lt;div id="ftn1"&gt;     &lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;   &lt;p class="datatableTitle"&gt;Figure 1.

Meanwhile, the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao has the lowest at 0.81. &lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;Among the provinces in 2007, Agusan del Norte posted the highest telephone density at 12.19 followed by Cavite and Benguet with telephone densities of 11.15 and 10.66, respectively. On the other hand, the province of Sulu had the lowest telephone density at 0.05 per 100,000 population. &lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;Both indicators on telephone lines per 100,000 population and cellular subscribers per 100 population are Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) indicators under Goal 8. In the Philippines, both indicators show an increasing trend since 1994 implying that the MDG target of making available the benefits of new technologies, especially information and communications in cooperation with the private sector, will be achieved by the Philippines by 2015. &lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p class="datatableTitle"&gt;Figure 2.

&lt;br&gt; By Charmaine Manansala&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; I've spent the past few weeks criss-crossing the country talking to&lt;br&gt; AAPIs about Barack Obama and the vision he has for our community, and&lt;br&gt; for our country.  I want to say a quick word about where we are in&lt;br&gt; this campaign to Filipinos.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; Filipino Americans across the country are working nationwide through&lt;br&gt; the Obama campaign and Filipino Americans for Obama.  Leading to&lt;br&gt; November 4th, they are working diligently to deliver the electoral&lt;br&gt; votes that will make Barack Obama our 44th President of the United&lt;br&gt; States.  This is because Filipino Americans, young and old, all&lt;br&gt; recognize the challenges America faces, after all they impact our&lt;br&gt; lives every day. Our economy is in crisis, thanks in large part to the&lt;br&gt; Wall Street-first economic policies pushed through by President Bush.&lt;br&gt; Our nation is in an endless war; our veterans are not receiving the&lt;br&gt; care they deserve; and our health care system is broken.  We need to&lt;br&gt; call upon the can do American spirit to lift ourselves out of this&lt;br&gt; precarious situation.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; In many ways the Filipino-American community's experience embodies&lt;br&gt; this American spirit. Barack Obama has shared the same experience.  He&lt;br&gt; understands keeping the American dream alive, and he knows that&lt;br&gt; government must keep its promise to you and all of the American&lt;br&gt; people.  This is one of the core reasons why I believe that Barack&lt;br&gt; Obama is THE right candidate for Filipino-Americans.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; Barack first became acquainted with the diversity and richness of Asia&lt;br&gt; and the AAPI community as a child growing up in Hawai'i. Members of&lt;br&gt; his family are of Asian descent and ours is a community that he became&lt;br&gt; a part of while living in Los Angeles, New York and Chicago. The AAPI&lt;br&gt; story and community are personal to him, and he is committed to&lt;br&gt; keeping the door of opportunity open to Filipino Americans and&lt;br&gt; expanding opportunities for all Americans.  Senator Obama understands&lt;br&gt; the Asian American and Pacific Islander community and the critical&lt;br&gt; role that we play in this nation.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; Barack Obama and Joe Biden are committed to policies that will help&lt;br&gt; the Filipino American community succeed.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; For instance, many Filipino families rely on family reunification&lt;br&gt; policies to help them build better lives in the United States.&lt;br&gt; However, AAPI families have some of the longest immigration backlogs.&lt;br&gt; That's why Barack has fought to improve and pass a comprehensive&lt;br&gt; immigration bill.  He has put greater emphasis on keeping immigrant&lt;br&gt; families together. The Philippines and the United States have always&lt;br&gt; enjoyed a special relationship, and I assure you that Barack Obama and&lt;br&gt; Joe Biden are committed to building on our strong ties.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; As we saw so clearly during the first debate, it's a choice of the&lt;br&gt; past versus the future.  Barack Obama demonstrated the vision and&lt;br&gt; judgment to be Commander in Chief.   He'll change the failed policies&lt;br&gt; of the last 8 years, and pursue 21st Century policies in Iraq,&lt;br&gt; Afghanistan, and in reinvigorating our alliances.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; And on the homefront, again as seen during the debate, Barack Obama&lt;br&gt; demonstrated he'll be a fierce advocate for the middle class, and&lt;br&gt; offer the change we need on the economy, health care, and energy&lt;br&gt; independence.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; Kababayan, we can create the changes we seek in America.  But this&lt;br&gt; will only happen if ordinary people rise up to demand change. Just as&lt;br&gt; some of you participated in the people power movement in Edsa, I'm&lt;br&gt; also asking you to get involved NOW, and to encourage your families to&lt;br&gt; look at the candidates, come to an informed decision, and vote.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; The reason is simple: the Filipino American community deserves better.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; We want fundamental change in our country.  We want to turn the page&lt;br&gt; on the failed policies of the past eight years and renew the promise&lt;br&gt; of America.  We simply cannot afford a third Bush term.  And let's be&lt;br&gt; clear.  That is exactly what we'd get with John McCain.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; As Senator Clinton says- No Way, No How, No McCain, No Palin.  I know&lt;br&gt; there were many in our community who supported Senator Clinton in this&lt;br&gt; year's elections and I want to say a word to you.  Senator Clinton is&lt;br&gt; someone I admire tremendously. I am a proud "Clintonista" who worked&lt;br&gt; in the Clinton administration for the first White House Initiative on&lt;br&gt; Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders.  If you love Hillary, if you&lt;br&gt; believe in her, if you trust her leadership and if you gave her your&lt;br&gt; vote, then I ask you to do the one thing that she has asked of all of&lt;br&gt; us now: do everything you can to elect Barack Obama as the next&lt;br&gt; President of the United States.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; The stakes are too high and the price of apathy is too great this year&lt;br&gt; to give anything but our all.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; You know, there's been a lot of talk this year about making history.&lt;br&gt; And I believe making history is an important goal.  But the more&lt;br&gt; important opportunity we have in November is to make possibility&lt;br&gt; reality.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; Next year, school children all over America will sit in classrooms&lt;br&gt; looking up at the portraits of the American presidents on the wall.&lt;br&gt; After scanning past the first 43, I hope they'll take a good look at&lt;br&gt; number 44 because that one will look different.  And suddenly, our&lt;br&gt; kids will start to think, "Maybe I can be Mayor.  Maybe I can run for&lt;br&gt; Congress.  Maybe I could be President."  In that moment, possibility&lt;br&gt; is born.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; I want a generation of Filipino boys and girls to see Barack Obama and&lt;br&gt; know that in America, anything is possible - with faith, hard work,&lt;br&gt; and determination, they can achieve anything in this land of&lt;br&gt; opportunity.  That, after all, is the American dream of our lolos and&lt;br&gt; lolas.  Stand with me today and let it be the commitment we make to&lt;br&gt; the generation of Filipino Americans who follow us.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; No doubt, there will be some who say it's too hard.  They will say&lt;br&gt; that Barack Obama and our movement for change just can't win.  But I'm&lt;br&gt; here to tell you: kaya natin, yes we can!&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; For generations, that's what we Pinoys have taught this nation.  KAYA NATIN!&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; When we were told that Filipino immigrants could never be at home in&lt;br&gt; these United States, we said kaya natin.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; During WWII, when America was at war and soldiers were needed, our&lt;br&gt; brave Filipino veterans said kaya natin.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; When farmworkers were told they could not organize, Filipino laborers&lt;br&gt; joined Cesar Chavez and other union leaders and said kaya natin.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; When this country could not find enough doctors and nurses, the&lt;br&gt; Filipino community stepped up and said kaya natin.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; As our families struggle with the longest immigration backlogs and&lt;br&gt; living in this frail economy,  Barack Obama joins with the Filipino&lt;br&gt; community to say kaya natin.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; So, we cannot wake up on November 5th wishing we had done more and we&lt;br&gt; can't afford to let someone else decide for us.  We all know that this&lt;br&gt; is going to be a very close race.  A handful of votes may decide the&lt;br&gt; election. Those handful of votes could be yours.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; Change doesn't come by hoping for it.  It doesn't come by wishing for&lt;br&gt; it.  We have to organize for it, fight for it, register for it and&lt;br&gt; vote for it.  Change happens when we say, with great pride in our&lt;br&gt; community and love for our country, kaya natin!&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; Maraming salamat po.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; Charmaine Manansala is a Filipina-American immigrant.

PACQUIAO SET FOR DECEMBER 6 AT MGM GRAND AND LIVE ON HBO PAY PER VIEW&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;PhilBoxing.com&lt;br&gt;Fri, 29 Aug 2008&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;LOS ANGELES - The wait is over and the fight is on... Olympic gold medalist and 10-time world champion "The Golden Boy" OSCAR DE LA HOYA will face current Ring Magazine No. 1-ranked pound for pound champion MANNY "Pacman" PACQUIAO on Saturday, December 6 at MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada in a bout that will be produced and distributed live by HBO Pay-Per-View. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Presented by Golden Boy Promotions and Top Rank, Inc., the bout will be a 12-round, non-title fight contested at the 147-pound welterweight limit. This exciting and intriguing match-up pits two of the most recognizable and popular talents in the sport today in what will surely be the grand finale of the 2008 boxing calendar year. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;"Manny Pacquiao is considered the best fighter in boxing today and I always want to fight the best," said De La Hoya. "I am glad we were able to make this fight happen because while Pacquiao is at the pinnacle of his success and has defeated all of the top fighters he has faced, I am going to show the world that it stops with me. December 6 can't get here soon enough." &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;"This is my greatest challenge," said Pacquiao. "When I take that walk to the ring to fight Oscar, I will carry all the people of The Philippines - the entire country - on my shoulders. I promise I will fight with all of my heart and that I will give everything I have. Like my trainer Freddie Roach says, I have what it takes to win the biggest fight of my life." &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;After several weeks of amicable discussions between De La Hoya's company, Golden Boy Promotions, and Pacquiao's promoter, Top Rank, Inc., a deal was struck this week ensuring fans around the world the opportunity to see this dream match-up. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Richard Schaefer, Chief Executive Officer, Golden Boy Promotions said, "This fight will have the whole world talking and will be a fantastic night for boxing. Oscar's career has always been defined by taking on the biggest challenges and fighting best names in boxing. This fight against a great champion like Manny Pacquiao is just another testament to his readiness to face the strongest competition and continue his legacy as one of the greatest fighters boxing has ever seen." &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Hall of Fame promoter Bob Arum, Chairman of the Board, Top Rank added, "This fight is what all sports fans are looking forward to, a contest between two champions who come to fight and who are the most popular names in boxing today. Manny Pacquiao is taking on a major task in facing the legendary Oscar de la Hoya, but we at Top Rank are very confident Manny will handle himself extremely well." &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Richard Sturm, President of Sports and Entertainment, MGM MIRAGE said, "MGM MIRAGE has hosted the greatest names in sports and entertainment and this event will certainly continue that tradition. We look forward to presenting one of the most exciting promotions in the history of boxing and there is no question this fight will have a major impact on fans worldwide." &lt;br&gt;Mark Taffet, HBO Pay-Per-View said, "De La Hoya-Pacquiao is a dream match-up which will capture the imagination of sports fans everywhere. It's the pay-per-view king vs. the pound-for-pound king and an event in which both fighters' popularity clearly transcends the sport." &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Oscar de la Hoya has been a fan favorite and the most successful pay-per-view attraction in the history of the boxing. A 1992 Olympic Gold Medalist for the United States, de la Hoya (39-5, 30 KOs) is a champion in every division he has competed in from 130 to 160 pounds and has faced boxing's elite for over 15 years, including Floyd Mayweather, Julio Cesar Chavez, Bernard Hopkins, Shane Mosley, Felix Trinidad, Pernell Whitaker, Ike Quartey, Fernando Vargas, Arturo Gatti, Genaro Hernandez, Jesse James Leija and Hector Camacho Sr. In his fight against Mayweather on May 5, 2007, he fell short via a close split decision, but set records with the fight having the most pay-per-view buys and grossing the most revenue in the history of boxing. In his last fight against Steve Forbes on May 3, 2008 De La Hoya registered a dominating unanimous decision victory, winning nearly every round of the fight which took place in suburban Los Angeles at the outdoor Home Depot Center soccer stadium, another first for boxing's star attraction. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Manny Pacquiao (47-3-2, 35 KOs) is recognized by most knowledgeable observers as the best fighter at any weight in the world today. Pacquiao, 29, has held world titles in four weight divisions, winning the WBC flyweight world title two weeks before his 20th birthday in December of 1998, the IBF junior featherweight world title at age 22 in 2001, the WBC super featherweight world title in March of this year and most recently the WBC lightweight world title in his last fight on June 28 against defending champion David Diaz. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;More information on the bout as well as a detailed schedule for a planned media tour will be distributed shortly.&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.filipinopeople.com/article/article_50/"&gt;http://www.filipinopeople.com/article/article_50/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;    &lt;!-- multiply:no_crosspost --&gt;&lt;p class='multiply:no_crosspost'&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1100766900979392175-1105206680939085657?l=pinoypipeline.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pinoypipeline.blogspot.com/feeds/1105206680939085657/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1100766900979392175&amp;postID=1105206680939085657' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1100766900979392175/posts/default/1105206680939085657'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1100766900979392175/posts/default/1105206680939085657'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pinoypipeline.blogspot.com/2008/08/de-la-hoya-vs-pacquiao-set-for-december.html' title='DE LA HOYA VS.

Independent movies don't have the marketing budget to compete against the mammoth studio movies, but what we do have is intense, strong word-of-mouth (just check out any of a number of our reviews--from outlets large and small, from critics, bloggers, and chat room posters alike).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Please help us continue to spread the word and come check out the movie opening weekend!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;PING PONG PLAYA will be coming to theaters!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;When: opening SEPTEMBER 5th&lt;br&gt;Where: NEW YORK, LOS ANGELES and&lt;br&gt;BAY AREA&lt;br&gt;-----------------------------------&lt;br&gt;NEW YORK CITY&lt;br&gt;AMC Village 7, New York, NY&lt;br&gt;Regal E Walk (42nd street) , New York, NY&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;LOS ANGELES&lt;br&gt;Mann Chinese Theater, Hollywood, CA&lt;br&gt;Mann Glendale Exchange, Glendale, CA&lt;br&gt;Edwards Alhambra Palace, Alhambra, CA&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;IRVINE&lt;br&gt;West Park Regal, Irvine, CA&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;BAY AREA&lt;br&gt;Metreon AMC, San Francisco, CA&lt;br&gt;Shattuck Landmark, Berkeley, CA&lt;br&gt;Camera 12, San Jose, CA&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;and then...&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;When: opening SEPTEMBER 12&lt;br&gt;Where: SEATTLE and HOUSTON&lt;br&gt;------------------------------&lt;br&gt;SEATTLE&lt;br&gt;Lincoln Square, Bellevue, WA&lt;br&gt;Meridian Regal, Seattle, WA&lt;br&gt;Alderwood AMC, Lynwood, WA&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;HOUSTON&lt;br&gt;Marq E Houston, TX&lt;br&gt;First Colony, Houston, TX&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;See you at the theaters soon,&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Jimmy Tsai&lt;br&gt;Writer/Co-Producer/2nd Assistant Production Accountant&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Jessica Yu&lt;br&gt;Director-Writer&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Joan Huang&lt;br&gt;Producer&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Anne Clements&lt;br&gt;Producer&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Jeffrey Gou&lt;br&gt;Executive Producer&lt;/font&gt;

Ms. Baoanan arrived in New York in early 2006, believing that she would receive assistance to find employment as a nurse. Instead, former UN ambassador Lauro Baja, Jr., his wife Norma Baja (an owner of Labaire International Travel), and the Bajas� adult daughter, Maria Elizabeth Facundo, alleged a substantial debt against Ms. Baoanan and subjected her for three months to involuntary servitude, forced labor, peonage, debt bondage, and slavery as a domestic worker in their home on Manhattan�s Upper East Side. &lt;br&gt;    &lt;br&gt; �Human trafficking is far more complex than many people realize,� said AALDEF Staff Attorney Ivy Suriyopas, who leads the Anti-Trafficking Initiative. �It can involve domestic workers that cook food for, clean the house of, and take care of the children of your next-door neighbor. Trafficking involves the severe exploitation of workers regardless of the industry of the worker or the reputation of the trafficker.� &lt;br&gt;   &lt;br&gt;Under the Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act (TVPRA), individuals can sue their former traffickers and also legalize their immigration status. "T" visas are available to sex and labor trafficking survivors who have been subjected to force, fraud, or coercion. &lt;br&gt;    &lt;br&gt; Ms. Baoanan sought assistance in 2006 from DAMAYAN Migrant Workers Association, a Filipino labor rights group, and lawyers at AALDEF. AALDEF helped to secure a T visa for Ms. Baoanan and Derivative T visas for her family members, with case management assistance provided by New York Association for New Americans (NYANA). Ms. Baoanan was reunited with her family in April 2008. &lt;br&gt;    &lt;br&gt; �It is an honor to work with AALDEF on behalf of Ms. Baoanan and other women and youth like her to meet the humanitarian needs of trafficking victims and their families, and to preserve the rule of law and the values that we cherish in our lives and our society,� said Aaron Mendelsohn, an associate at Troutman Sanders LLP in New York, the law firm which is serving as pro bono co-counsel on this case. &lt;br&gt;    &lt;br&gt; AALDEF�s Anti-Trafficking Initiative provides free legal representation to trafficked women and youth to apply for immigration relief, facilitate survivors� access to human services, and represent them in civil litigation. AALDEF�s anti-trafficking efforts also include community education, outreach, and advocacy. &lt;/div&gt; 		&lt;div id="article-aboutAALDEF"&gt; 						# # #&lt;br&gt; 			&lt;br&gt; 			The Asian American Legal Defense and Education Fund (AALDEF), founded in 1974, is a national  			organization that protects and promotes the civil rights of Asian Americans.

Growing up I would usually prefer to be the one taking the pictures rather than having my picture taken. &lt;/td&gt;         &lt;/tr&gt;       &lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;       &lt;table border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" width="280"&gt;         &lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;           &lt;td width="144"&gt;&lt;table style="width: auto;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/PhotoBen750/THECAMERA/photo#5077805699408764754" target="_parent"&gt;&lt;img src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/PhotoBen750/Rnf9YVe2n1I/AAAAAAAADyI/_ONc5eAYYR0/s144/DSCF9351.JPG" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;           &lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;font-size: 11px;text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;From &lt;a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/PhotoBen750/THECAMERA"&gt;THE CAMERA&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;/td&gt;           &lt;td&gt;As a young child I did not have much money so I was limited to basic bottom barrel point and shoots and disposable &lt;/td&gt;         &lt;/tr&gt;       &lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;       &lt;table border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" width="280"&gt;         &lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;           &lt;td&gt;cameras. Not having much money this also made the process of getting my picture developed difficult. For many years I just kept the spent film in hopes that one day, before it went bad that, I would get it developed.&lt;/td&gt;         &lt;/tr&gt;       &lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;       &lt;table border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" width="280"&gt;         &lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;           &lt;td width="164"&gt;A major turning point in my life that sent me down this road of photo passion was the day my uncle Dennis Baunach gave me his old Pentax K1000. This was around the end of my sophomore &lt;br&gt;&lt;/td&gt;           &lt;td&gt;&lt;table style="width: auto;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/PhotoBen750/FRIENDSAndFAMILY/photo#5226708055716609314" target="_parent"&gt;&lt;img src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/PhotoBen750/SIj_SM2pPSI/AAAAAAAAGgY/8ro97KkiEzY/s144/DSCF1776-1.JPG" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;           &lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;font-size: 11px;text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;From &lt;a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/PhotoBen750/FRIENDSAndFAMILY"&gt;FRIENDS and F...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;/td&gt;         &lt;/tr&gt;       &lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;       &lt;table border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" width="280"&gt;         &lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;           &lt;td&gt;year in high school just before we took a family trip to Europe. At that time I did not realize what importance this camera might play in the development of my talent. Even though my uncle had owned this camera for about 25 years prior to him giving it to me the Pentax K1000 is a classic camera that is still used by many photogs.&lt;/td&gt;         &lt;/tr&gt;       &lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;       &lt;table border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" width="280"&gt;         &lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;           &lt;td width="144"&gt;&lt;table style="width: auto;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/PhotoBen750/THECAMERA/photo#5077805695113797442" target="_parent"&gt;&lt;img src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/PhotoBen750/Rnf9YFe2n0I/AAAAAAAADyA/wPuRjHmwmXg/s144/DSCF9345.JPG" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;           &lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;font-size: 11px;text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;From &lt;a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/PhotoBen750/THECAMERA"&gt;THE CAMERA&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;/td&gt;           &lt;td&gt;The Pentax was my first real SLR camera.  It had all the manual features a beginner could want and a few auto function that &lt;/td&gt;         &lt;/tr&gt;       &lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;       &lt;table border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" width="280"&gt;         &lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;           &lt;td&gt;were new back when the camera was originally purchased. It came with a black leather caring case designed to hold the camera, film, filter, lenses, flash, and a battery operated auto shooter. Back then I had little knowledge on how any of it worked or what it meant to adjust shutter and aperture settings.&lt;/td&gt;         &lt;/tr&gt;       &lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;       &lt;table border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" width="280"&gt;         &lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;           &lt;td&gt;To get me started my uncle showed me how to read the built in light meter, focus the camera and basic adjustment to the shutter and &lt;br&gt;&lt;/td&gt;           &lt;td width="144"&gt;&lt;table style="width: auto;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/PhotoBen750/THECAMERA/photo#5226674634652939554" target="_parent"&gt;&lt;img src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/PhotoBen750/SIjg41sIdSI/AAAAAAAAGa8/ePXx-dvLrmA/s144/DSCF9348-2.JPG" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;           &lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;font-size: 11px;text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;From &lt;a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/PhotoBen750/THECAMERA"&gt;THE CAMERA&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;/td&gt;         &lt;/tr&gt;       &lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;       &lt;table border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" width="280"&gt;         &lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;           &lt;td&gt;  aperture.

I even got into taking black and white images with the Kodak Tmax film. At the time black and white was not easy for me to get developed. Unless you knew how to it yourself you had &lt;/td&gt;         &lt;/tr&gt;       &lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;       &lt;table border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" width="280"&gt;         &lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;           &lt;td&gt;&lt;table style="width: auto;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/PhotoBen750/THECAMERA/photo#5077805712293666674" target="_parent"&gt;&lt;img src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/PhotoBen750/Rnf9ZFe2n3I/AAAAAAAADyY/AwxteOEgHeQ/s144/DSCF9361.JPG" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;           &lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;font-size: 11px;text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;From &lt;a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/PhotoBen750/THECAMERA"&gt;THE CAMERA&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;/td&gt;           &lt;td width="164"&gt;to find a shop that worked with black and white. You couldn’t just drop it off at Costco or any old photo store and it was also twice as expensive to develop. I would often just take the pictures and keep the &lt;/td&gt;         &lt;/tr&gt;       &lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;       &lt;table border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" width="280"&gt;         &lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;           &lt;td&gt;undeveloped film. &lt;/td&gt;         &lt;/tr&gt;       &lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;       &lt;table border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" width="280"&gt;         &lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;           &lt;td&gt;For years I continued taking pictures some film would get developed but most would just get added to the collection. In 1999 when I was preparing to move to California Anselmo Villinueva, a good friend of mine, discover that I had all this undeveloped film saved up. He said that I should think about getting it developed before it goes bad. I told him that I could not really afford to do it, but I really wanted to see what picture I had taken. &lt;/td&gt;         &lt;/tr&gt;       &lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;       &lt;table border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" width="280"&gt;         &lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;           &lt;td width="164"&gt;He offered to drop it off to Costco for me and pay for the development. I could not believe it. There were over 20 roles of film.

Once they were developed I began to see all the moments from the past come to life. It was like opening a time capsule. The subject matter was so varied and spanned over many, many years. It brought back lots of great memories. &lt;/td&gt;         &lt;/tr&gt;       &lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;       &lt;table border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" width="280"&gt;         &lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;           &lt;td valign="top" width="144"&gt;&lt;table style="width: auto;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/PhotoBen750/ART/photo#5226719378217310994" target="_parent"&gt;&lt;img src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/PhotoBen750/SIkJlQdLGxI/AAAAAAAAGg4/jcNztIWE_l4/s144/asian_sensation_8X10.jpg" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;           &lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;font-size: 11px;text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;From &lt;a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/PhotoBen750/ART"&gt;ART&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;/td&gt;           &lt;td&gt;Many of the pictures were poor in quality and not as nice as I would have hoped, but the real excitement came when I would find the outstanding &lt;/td&gt;         &lt;/tr&gt;       &lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;       &lt;table border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" width="280"&gt;         &lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;           &lt;td&gt;shots. I did not know much about photography when I started, but I had an eye to appreciate what I saw. Many of my first images may not have been in focus or the shutter stayed open too long, but the picture would have a story.&lt;/td&gt;         &lt;/tr&gt;       &lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;       &lt;table border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" width="280"&gt;         &lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;           &lt;td width="155"&gt;I am not sure who coined the phrase “A picture is worth a thousand words,” but I see the art in this statement.

This makes Filipinos the number one users of Multiply, ranking higher than users in the United States where the site is based. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Arial"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.abs-cbnnews.com/images/news/newspics/abs/20080619peterpezaris.jpg" align="right" hspace="3" vspace="3"&gt;Pezaris said the Filipino culture's emphasis on family and relationships is the main reason why the social networking site is so popular in the Philippines. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Arial"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;"The reason why we are popular here, I think, relates to that notion of friends and family, the fact that our service is much more focused on connecting you with people that you know in real life rather than introducing you to people that you don’t know. It’s a site that really plays into the cultural phenomenon that’s here in the Philippines," he told abs-cbnNEWS.com.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Arial"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.abs-cbnnews.com/images/news/newspics/abs/20080619davidhersh.jpg" align="left" hspace="3" vspace="3"&gt;David Hersh, Multiply vice-president for business development, also said the integration of unlimited photosharing in Multiply is very attractive to Filipino Internet users. Most Filipino Multiply users are female, in the 18-25 age bracket, and average about 160 Multiply page views a month. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Arial"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;"Filipinos are just rabid consumers of content. It’s amazing. Those 160 page views aren’t just fluff page views of people bouncing from profile to profile. It’s people consuming photos, videos and blogs from the people in their world. It’s meaningful activity. It reflects the deep level of engagement that we have with our user base especially here in the Philippines," Pezaris said. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;font face="Arial"&gt;&lt;b&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;Local partner&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/b&gt; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Arial"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;For the Philippine market, Multiply recently partnered with ABS-CBN Interactive to tap local advertisers and launch mobile services for Filipino Multiply users. (Disclosure: Abs-cbnNEWS.com is run by ABS-CBN Interactive.)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Arial"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;Paolo Pineda, ABS-CBN Interactive managing director, said the company is the exclusive reseller of advertising on Multiply for the Philippines. He said ABS-CBN Interactive will also be actively campaigning to build Multiply's user base in the country.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;div style="margin: 4px;&lt;br /&gt;float: right;&lt;br /&gt;width: 220px;&lt;br /&gt;"&gt; &lt;div style="padding: 1px;&lt;br /&gt;margin-bottom: 2px;&lt;br /&gt;color: rgb(255, 255, 255);&lt;br /&gt;background-color: rgb(83, 111, 151);&lt;br /&gt;"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial" size="2"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Related links&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="padding: 1px;&lt;br /&gt;color: rgb(0, 0, 0);&lt;br /&gt;background-color: rgb(228, 231, 239);&lt;br /&gt;"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial" size="2"&gt;• &lt;a href="http://www.abs-cbnnews.com/storypage.aspx?StoryID=122306"&gt;‘We put a lot of emphasis on connecting with people in the real world’ &lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;• &lt;a href="http://teamkapamilya.multiply.com/video/item/22/The_ABS-CBN-Multiply_Trade_Event"&gt;(Video) The ABS-CBN-Multiply Trade Event&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Arial"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;One of the successful Multiply communities launched by ABS-CBN Interactive centered on the Pinoy Big Brother Teen Edition Plus show. The show now has two sites - the official one where profiles and schedules are posted and a Multiply site where PBB fans can go online. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Arial"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;Pineda said one local call center that advertised on Multiply was able to attract recruits through its Multiply community site. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Arial"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;"It’s more of these community building efforts online for Filipinos worldwide. We want to really try to populate the brand and get more people to understand it and work on the advertising and get the brands to see that this is really a safe place to put your brand in," he said. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;font face="Arial"&gt;&lt;b&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.abs-cbnnews.com/images/news/newspics/abs/20080619multiplycontacts.jpg" align="left" hspace="3" vspace="3"&gt;Real-world relationships&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/b&gt; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Arial"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;Hersh said Multiply currently has nine million registered users worldwide, of which 2.2 million are Filipinos. He said that while the growth of Multiply has been slower compared to other social networking sites such as MySpace and Facebook, it is the real-world relationships in Multiply that sets it apart and ensures its longevity. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Arial"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;"If your online social network is full of people that you have no real world connection to, there’s very little reason to keep you there and it’s very easy for you to switch. But on Multiply, it’s your real-world social network online and your content and it’s the discussion that goes on around that content that’s going to keep you coming back," he said. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Arial"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;Adds Pezaris: "It’s closer, deeper relationships which enables the sharing of personal, meaningful content to you and the continuing sharing of that is the personal documentation of your life online. Over a period of time, you build up this history like a living scrapbook of what’s happening in your life and it’s a collaborative effort because while you add to it, all your friends and family add to it also and that’s what really develops the long-term value."&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Arial"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;http://www.abs-cbnnews.com/storypage.aspx?StoryID=122308&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;   &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;!-- multiply:no_crosspost --&gt;&lt;p class='multiply:no_crosspost'&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1100766900979392175-103402359020554492?l=pinoypipeline.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pinoypipeline.blogspot.com/feeds/103402359020554492/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1100766900979392175&amp;postID=103402359020554492' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1100766900979392175/posts/default/103402359020554492'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1100766900979392175/posts/default/103402359020554492'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pinoypipeline.blogspot.com/2008/06/filipinos-are-top-multiply-users.html' title='Filipinos are top Multiply users'/><author><name>PhotoBen750</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02257190227869436105</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='19' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ORwH6twG2Kk/TDZ3cCRvNuI/AAAAAAAAM_g/k59JciQC590/S220/ben_what.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1100766900979392175.post-8699102199543826015</id><published>2008-06-12T12:31:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-06-12T12:32:53.004-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Filipino'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Pinoy'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='community'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='mango'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Pilipina'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Kultural'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Philippines'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Kababayan'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='celebration'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Pinay'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Experience'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Heritage'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Asian'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='history'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fest'/><title type='text'>Kababayan Fest 2008:  Saturday, July 5th</title><content type='html'>&lt;h1&gt;     &lt;span class="name summary"&gt;       Kababayan Fest 2008    &lt;/span&gt;                &lt;/h1&gt;                   &lt;div class="date"&gt;         &lt;abbr class="dtstart" title="20080705"&gt;           Saturday, July 5, 2008        &lt;/abbr&gt;               &lt;/div&gt; &lt;!-- /.date --&gt;       &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="venue location vcard"&gt;   &lt;span class="fn org"&gt;&lt;a href="http://upcoming.yahoo.com/venue/90736/"&gt;Great America&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;div class="address adr"&gt;     &lt;span class="street-address"&gt;Great America Pkwy&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;    &lt;span class="locality"&gt;Santa Clara&lt;/span&gt;, &lt;span class="region"&gt;California&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="postal-code"&gt;95054&lt;/span&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;   &lt;div class="directions"&gt;      (&lt;a href="http://maps.yahoo.com/py/maps.py?addr=Great+America+Pkwy&amp;amp;csz=Santa+Clara+California+95054"&gt;Yahoo!

NAFVE's support for all soldiers past and present who put on the uniform comes as it continues its push to pass legislation for Filipino WWII veterans this year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"NAFVE and its members stand in solidarity with the chorus of voices around the country calling for passage of this important legislation, " said NAFVE Co-Chair Jon Melegrito. "In partnership with the Filipino community&lt;br /&gt;nationwide, and our allies who are joining our campaign, we are working in unison to pass Filipino WWII veterans in this Congress."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;During the week of Memorial Day, members of the House of Representatives will be in their local districts. NAFVE is encouraging its members and allies to approach their members directly in their localities and talk to them about the importance of this bill. In Washington, DC, NAFVE continues to talk to members of Congress and their staff on both sides of the aisle.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"NAFVE is committed to working with our champions and supporters in the House of Representatives to convey the urgency of our communities on this issue," said Lillian Galedo, NAFVE Co-Chair. "House Veterans Affairs&lt;br /&gt;Committee Chairman Bob Filner (D-CA), House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), Assistant to the Speaker Xavier Becerra (D-CA), Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus Chair Mike Honda (D-CA) and Republican champion Representative Darrell Issa (R-C) and their staffs have been working with us to make sure that this bill is able to move forward with a solid strategy for success. With Memorial Day upon us and June 12 as Philippine&lt;br /&gt;Independence Day nearing, we urge Congress to pass this bill without delay."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"We have always known that the key to this bill's passage is securing a bipartisan majority," said Ben de Guzman, NAFVE Co-Chair. "During this Memorial Day recess, our strategy includes mobilizing our partners in the field while we push from Washington, DC. There is opposition to this bill, so it will be important that we all continue our efforts until our job on behalf of our veterans is done."

He even invited this reporter to take photos and videos at his JABB gym in Chicago.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Their public workout is believed to be the last promotional appearance of the two boxers before       &lt;/span&gt;       &lt;/div&gt;      &lt;/td&gt;     &lt;/tr&gt;     &lt;tr&gt;      &lt;td&gt;       Topic: &lt;a href="http://www.filipinopeople.com/newsindex/cat_6/"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sports&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1100766900979392175-4226549075883942782?l=pinoypipeline.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pinoypipeline.blogspot.com/feeds/4226549075883942782/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1100766900979392175&amp;postID=4226549075883942782' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1100766900979392175/posts/default/4226549075883942782'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1100766900979392175/posts/default/4226549075883942782'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pinoypipeline.blogspot.com/2008/06/pacquiao-diaz-to-hold-public-workouts.html' title='Pacquiao, Diaz to hold public workouts in Berkeley'/><author><name>PhotoBen750</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02257190227869436105</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='19' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ORwH6twG2Kk/TDZ3cCRvNuI/AAAAAAAAM_g/k59JciQC590/S220/ben_what.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1100766900979392175.post-7800173336610443404</id><published>2008-05-20T17:08:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-05-20T21:10:28.904-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Philippine Adventur: 2008</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="style1" align="center"&gt;Philippine Adventur: 2008 &lt;/div&gt;                   &lt;table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="0" width="280"&gt;         &lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;           &lt;td valign="top" width="108"&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/PhotoBen750/Philippines2008/photo#5200790196697209298"&gt;&lt;img src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/PhotoBen750/SCzrIQF4mdI/AAAAAAAAFgw/zucDKbEVDzA/s144/DSCF7616.JPG" border="0"&gt;&lt;br&gt;          &lt;span class="style3"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 85%; "&gt;Philippines 2008&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/br&gt;&lt;/img&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;           &lt;td valign="top" width="182"&gt;I just returned from a 2 ½ week trip to the Philippines visiting family and seeking adventure.

To see still images that appears in the videos see: &lt;a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/PhotoBen750" class="style3"&gt;PhotoBen750:Picasa&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;         &lt;/tr&gt;       &lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;       &lt;table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="0" width="280"&gt;         &lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;           &lt;td width="153"&gt;I will progressively post more details about my Philippine experiences as I put them together, but for now I will briefly introduce the story that changed my life and a few videos and pictures of special moments from my recent trip.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;&lt;/td&gt;           &lt;td valign="bottom" width="115"&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/PhotoBen750/Philippines/photo#5014839815527774018"&gt;&lt;img src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/PhotoBen750/RZhKPhIEt0I/AAAAAAAAB3A/K3keYimKDiU/s144/DSCF1828-1.JPG" border="0"&gt;&lt;br&gt;          &lt;span class="style3"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 85%; "&gt;Philippines 2004: Lola&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/br&gt;&lt;/img&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;         &lt;/tr&gt;       &lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;       &lt;table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="0" width="280"&gt;         &lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;           &lt;td&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Please Visit:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;          &lt;a href="http://www.dacocos.com/"&gt;http://www.DaCocoS.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;            &lt;a href="http://dacocos.blogspot.com/"&gt;http://dacocos.blogspot.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;           &lt;/td&gt;         &lt;/tr&gt;       &lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;       &lt;table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="0" width="280"&gt;         &lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;           &lt;td valign="top" width="144"&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/PhotoBen750/FatherSDay/photo#5075699915598241234"&gt;&lt;img src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/PhotoBen750/RnCCLle2ndI/AAAAAAAADuU/yn2dF9Yza4A/s144/papa_young_sea_photo.jpg" border="0"&gt;&lt;br&gt;          &lt;span class="style3"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 85%; "&gt;Young Image of My Father&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/br&gt;&lt;/img&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;           &lt;td valign="top" width="124"&gt;In May of 2004 I was blessed with a very unique experience of being able to reconnect with my family in the Philippines after about a 20 year &lt;/td&gt;         &lt;/tr&gt;       &lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;       &lt;table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="0" width="280"&gt;         &lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;           &lt;td&gt;break in communication and lack of current contact information. I took what information I had and located the residence of the last address I had for my Father in the Philippines. &lt;/td&gt;         &lt;/tr&gt;       &lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;       &lt;table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="0" width="280"&gt;         &lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;           &lt;td valign="top" width="124"&gt;When I arrived at the address there was family of renters that were staying at the address.

The man that was living there did not know my family, but did know some in the neighborhood that might.

By the next day I got a call form the &lt;/td&gt;         &lt;/tr&gt;       &lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;       &lt;table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="0" width="280"&gt;         &lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;           &lt;td&gt;classmate of my father and she had the phone number to the house where my Father and his family lived. She had called them and made sure it was okay to give me their number and she had given them my information.&lt;/td&gt;         &lt;/tr&gt;       &lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;       &lt;table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="0" width="280"&gt;         &lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;           &lt;td valign="top" width="153"&gt;&lt;p&gt;At first I was a little scared to call. I did not want to cause and trouble and I was not sure what the situation was like. My only hope was to just be the person I am and all will turn out &lt;/p&gt;           &lt;/td&gt;           &lt;td valign="top" width="115"&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/PhotoBen750/FamilyInThePhilippines/photo#5116576285227030322"&gt;&lt;img src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/PhotoBen750/RwG7BcslFzI/AAAAAAAAETQ/QLpu3-_rMf0/s144/roxanne_n_papa-1.jpg" border="0"&gt;&lt;br&gt;                &lt;span class="style3"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 85%; "&gt;Papa and Roxanne&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/br&gt;&lt;/img&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;         &lt;/tr&gt;       &lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;       &lt;table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="0" width="280"&gt;         &lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;           &lt;td&gt;okay. So I gave them a call… I believe it was my sister Madel who answered the phone first. I could tell there was a hesitation of first mixed feelings for a stranger only known through passed stories. She let me know that I had 3 sisters and a brother. She also informed me that Lola was there and she wanted to see me.&lt;/td&gt;         &lt;/tr&gt;       &lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;       &lt;table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="0" width="280"&gt;         &lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;           &lt;td valign="top" width="108"&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/PhotoBen750/Jeepney/photo#5202327146027244450"&gt;&lt;img src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/PhotoBen750/SDJg-ehTW6I/AAAAAAAAF8U/qbORHroDyTw/s144/DSCF8177-1.JPG" border="0"&gt;&lt;br&gt;              &lt;span class="style3" style="font-size: 85%; "&gt;Jeepney: An Icon&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/br&gt;&lt;/img&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;           &lt;td valign="top" width="160"&gt;With in the next two days I was checked out of my hotel and living with them at there house. By then I had talked to my Father on the phone twice with in that time since he was away from home working on a ship. Life was moving &lt;/td&gt;         &lt;/tr&gt;       &lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;       &lt;table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="0" width="280"&gt;         &lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;           &lt;td&gt;fast and a lot of changes were taking place in all our lives. The next week flew by and I would only have a chance to start a bond with my brother and sisters that would have to continue over the internet if it had any chance of growing over the great distance.&lt;/td&gt;         &lt;/tr&gt;       &lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;       &lt;table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="0" width="280"&gt;         &lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;           &lt;td valign="top" width="124"&gt;Over the next two years I would occasionally exchange message over email or yahoo instant messenger.  We also kept in &lt;/td&gt;           &lt;td valign="top" width="144"&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/PhotoBen750/FamilyInThePhilippines/photo#5197907555400167202"&gt;&lt;img src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/PhotoBen750/SCKtYcbyLyI/AAAAAAAAFZA/RQgJmWC3ICY/s144/DSCF8651-1.JPG" border="0"&gt;&lt;br&gt;                &lt;span class="style3"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 85%; "&gt;Last Day 2008&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/br&gt;&lt;/img&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;         &lt;/tr&gt;       &lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;       &lt;table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="0" width="280"&gt;         &lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;           &lt;td&gt;contact through Friendster as well. I was even able to recieve a bunch of phone calls and texts from my father when he was in port or close by a country where he could connect to sent text. In May of 2006 I would have my next opportunity to return to the Philippines. This time my Father would be home and I would see him for the first time.&lt;/td&gt;         &lt;/tr&gt;       &lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;       &lt;table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="0" width="280"&gt;

The play,&lt;br /&gt;which is set in the 1930s, is about five Filipino farmworkers&lt;br /&gt;struggling to achieve the American Dream as they eke out an existence&lt;br /&gt;working in the fields and living in a San Joaquin Delta bunkhouse.&lt;br /&gt;This incredible play has been performed all over the world in cities&lt;br /&gt;such as Honolulu, NYC, Manila, New Haven and LA -- even in Romania --&lt;br /&gt;and now, the Little Manila Foundation will bring the play home to Stockton!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;THE ROMANCE OF MAGNO RUBIO, written by Lonnie Carter and directed by&lt;br /&gt;Loy Arcenas, and produced by the reknowned Ma-Yi Theatre Company of&lt;br /&gt;NYC, is based on a short story written by Carlos Bulosan. Bulosan,&lt;br /&gt;author of the classic _America Is In the Heart_ (1946), lived in&lt;br /&gt;Stockton's Little Manila periodically from the 1930s until his death&lt;br /&gt;in 1956. The play centers around the experiences of five Pinoys who&lt;br /&gt;yearn for love, friendship, and hope as they follow crops and work&lt;br /&gt;tirelessly in the fields around Stockton and the South Bay Area. And&lt;br /&gt;what better month to come to Stockton (the historic heart of Filipino&lt;br /&gt;America!) and watch this play but October: Filipino American History Month!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tickets will go on sale in July. Please visit our website: &lt;a href="http://www.littlemanila.net/" target="_blank"&gt;http://www.littlemanila.net&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;, for periodic updates on sponsorship and donor opportunities,&lt;br /&gt;fundraisers to help bring over and house the NYC cast, ticket sales&lt;br /&gt;and prices, free events surrounding the performances such as special&lt;br /&gt;tours of the Little Manila Historic Site, and more information about&lt;br /&gt;the play.

The local Filipino American Association (PAA) is hosting two booths -- a food booth and cultural booth.  I will most likely be at one or the other helping out -- it would be great to see you.  PAA is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization and all funds raised go toward scholarships.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Cultural Booth will include a photo exhibit of Filipinos in Oregon since the 1920s.  Hosts for this booth are coming from Portland and Salem to help out.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Attendance has been growing at the Celebration, with over 20,000 persons attending the two-day event each year.

That infamous battle killed one hundred&lt;br /&gt;thousand (100,000) non-combatant civilians and&lt;br /&gt;destroyed almost the whole of the city of Manila,&lt;br /&gt;then considered the "Pearl of the Orient."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For many decades, that battle was referred to as the&lt;br /&gt;Liberation of Manila but a few years ago, the National&lt;br /&gt;Historical lnstitute officially changed that to the&lt;br /&gt;"Battle for Manila."  Although that was a historically&lt;br /&gt;and politically correct decision, many Filipinos still&lt;br /&gt;do not appreciate its importance, nor comprehend the&lt;br /&gt;difference between "liberation" and "battle for (not of)".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Manila is fortunate to have a mayor who has a sense&lt;br /&gt;of history and who respects history. Mayor Alfredo S.&lt;br /&gt;Lim has assigned the Manila Historical and Heritage&lt;br /&gt;Commission, headed by Mrs. Carmen Guerrero-Nakpil, to&lt;br /&gt;organize the formal commemoration of the 63rd&lt;br /&gt;Anniversary of the Battle for Manila. During the&lt;br /&gt;meetings of the ad-hoc committee, it was evident that&lt;br /&gt;the tragic February in 1945, after more than half a&lt;br /&gt;century is still an extremely emotional and&lt;br /&gt;controversial issue. Should the commemoration be a&lt;br /&gt;memorial to a nation's  profound bereavement or should&lt;br /&gt;it be a festive accolade, an amnesiac embracing  of&lt;br /&gt;former foes in the spirit of globalization?&lt;br /&gt;Let us forgive but never forget!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What we seem to have forgotten, or more precisely,&lt;br /&gt;what we have systematically  been made to forget is&lt;br /&gt;another tragic February of more than a century ago. On&lt;br /&gt;4 February 1899, the Philippine-American War broke out, &lt;br /&gt;lasted for thirteen years during which a million&lt;br /&gt;Filipinos died and the first republic in Asia was crushed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It can be argued that both Februaries were&lt;br /&gt;devastating to the life and future of the Filipino&lt;br /&gt;nation. We lost lives in the most horrendous fashion&lt;br /&gt;during the Battle for Manila and the&lt;br /&gt;Philippine-American War , not only that, we also lost&lt;br /&gt;heritage structures, public works painstakingly built,&lt;br /&gt;entire towns and cities disfigured by hamletting&lt;br /&gt;and "reconcentracion"; we also lost institutions, the&lt;br /&gt;"brains of the nation", " la crema y nata" or the&lt;br /&gt;best and the brightest.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most  painful is our memory loss, national&lt;br /&gt;amnesia  now chronic and in epidemic proportions.&lt;br /&gt;Very few Filipinos do not even know what they should&lt;br /&gt;remember of the two tragic Februaries. Let us&lt;br /&gt;commemorate both.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Gemma Cruz Araneta  &lt;a href="mailto:gemma601@yahoo.com" target="_blank"&gt;gemma601@yahoo.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1100766900979392175-4045282903153275494?l=pinoypipeline.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pinoypipeline.blogspot.com/feeds/4045282903153275494/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1100766900979392175&amp;postID=4045282903153275494' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1100766900979392175/posts/default/4045282903153275494'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1100766900979392175/posts/default/4045282903153275494'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pinoypipeline.blogspot.com/2008/02/battle-for-manila-tragic-february.html' title='The Battle for Manila: Tragic February'/><author><name>PhotoBen750</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02257190227869436105</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='19' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ORwH6twG2Kk/TDZ3cCRvNuI/AAAAAAAAM_g/k59JciQC590/S220/ben_what.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1100766900979392175.post-5514061743369863719</id><published>2008-02-06T19:09:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2008-02-06T19:09:48.916-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Philippines'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Filipino'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Pinoy'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='community'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Pinay'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Filipina'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Asian'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='national'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Kultural'/><title type='text'>Statement of the NaFFAA National Chair on the Death of Col.

Frank Quesada&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A resolute fighter for justice and a long-time advocate for the&lt;br /&gt;Filipino veterans' cause has departed us, joining his brave comrades&lt;br /&gt;who had lost their lives in a war that has left the few remaining&lt;br /&gt;survivors still waiting for the day when America restores their&lt;br /&gt;dignity and honor. All his life, this is what Col. Quesada valiantly&lt;br /&gt;fought for.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Col. Quesada fought in WWII as a key officer of the well known Hunters&lt;br /&gt;ROTC Guerilla.  He later served in and retired as a Colonel in the&lt;br /&gt;U.S. Army. Through his mighty pen and passionate discourses,&lt;br /&gt;Col.Quesada's unstinting devotion to the plight of Filipino World War&lt;br /&gt;II veterans has inspired all of us over the years to continue their&lt;br /&gt;struggle, from the grassroots to the halls of Congress. While we&lt;br /&gt;grieve over his passing, we stand proud of what Col. Quesada has done&lt;br /&gt;to keep their message of hope alive. It's as much a struggle for them&lt;br /&gt;as it is for our community, and for generations to come.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The surviving veterans don't have many years left. With one less voice&lt;br /&gt;advocating for them, our community needs to step up the pressure on&lt;br /&gt;Congress and urge passage of the equity bill this year.

  &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span class="notes"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Posted 31 January 2008&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.nscb.gov.ph/sna/2007/4thQ2007/pr.gif" align="right" height="209" hspace="3" vspace="3" width="300" /&gt;In an environment of benign inflation, low interest rates and a strong peso, the Philippine economy sustained its impressive streak of lofty growths that started in the first quarter of the year.  Fourth quarter growth of GDP stood at 7.4 percent from 5.5 percent last year, propelled by the robust performances of Trade, Agriculture and Fishery, Private Services, Construction and TCS, with the rest of the sectors posting positive growths.  On the demand side, increased household spending and investment in construction were the main drivers aided by the accelerated growths in government consumption, export of non-factor services and investment in durable equipment.  The 3.0 percent contraction in the level of NFIA pulled down GNP to a lower growth of 6.5 percent compared to the GDP growth.&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;The seasonally adjusted GDP, now on its 27th quarter of positive growths, accelerated to 1.8 percent from 1.0 percent in the previous quarter.  Likewise, the seasonally adjusted GNP, which has also been on positive territory since the second quarter of 2003, sped up to 1.4 percent from 0.9 percent in the third quarter.&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;On the production side, the sustained GDP growth in the fourth quarter was bolstered by the fast expanding Services sector whose growth of 9.0 percent from 8.4 percent in the same quarter last year is the highest since 1982.  Likewise, Industry went up too at a higher pace of 5.8 percent from 3.6 percent the previous year, albeit slower than during the first three quarters, mainly because of the deceleration of Manufacturing.  With favorable weather conditions during the quarter, Agriculture, Fishery and Forestry (AFF) also accelerated to 5.8 percent from its year ago rate of 1.7 percent.&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;The following were the contribution of the three major economic sectors to the GDP growth in the quarter: Services, with 4.4 percentage points; Industry, 1.8 percentage points and AFF contributing the least with 1.2 percentage points.&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;On a seasonally adjusted basis, AFF contracted by 0.1 percent in the fourth quarter after three quarters of robust growths while Industry rebounded to a 0.5 percent expansion after suffering a 0.4 percent contraction last quarter. The positive growth was attributed to the strong growths of Construction, Mining and Quarrying, and Electricity, Gas and Water.  Services sector came in strongest as it posted an all time record growth of 3.3 percent.  The phenomenal growth was brought about by the brisk retail trading during the fourth quarter combined with the strong performances of Private Services and Finance.&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;The economy continued to keep pace with the population growth in the fourth quarter of 2007 as per capita GDP grew by 5.3 percent from 3.4 percent, per capita GNP by 4.4 percent from 4.0 percent, and per capita PCE by 4.2 percent from 3.8 percent. &lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;NFIA in the fourth quarter declined however, by 3.0 percent from a 12.4 percent gain in the same quarter last year as compensation inflow declined anew by an even higher rate of 3.3 percent from only 0.2 percent in the third quarter.  This was aggravated by the deceleration in Property Income from 32.0 percent last year to 18.9 percent, and the growth in Property Expense by 4.4 percent.  The fourth quarter recorded the first quarter of negative growth of NFIA since the fourth quarter of 2002.&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;On the expenditure side, consumer spending grew by 6.3 percent from 5.8 percent a year ago.  Food expenditure, which accounted for 56.1 percent of the Personal Consumption Expenditure (PCE), grew by 6.6 percent from 6.8 percent in the previous year while Miscellaneous expenditures accelerated to 7.8 percent from 5.7 percent last year.  Meanwhile, Transportation/Communication and Clothing &amp;amp; Footwear both turned in lower growths as they decelerated to 8.2 percent from 8.3 percent and 2.4 percent from 6.5 percent, respectively.  The other sub-sectors that contributed to the growth of PCE were the following:  Household Operations, up by 2.7 percent from 1.9 percent; Beverages grew by 4.7 percent from 6.6 percent; Fuel, Light &amp;amp; Water, up by 4.3 percent from 1.4 percent; and Household Furnishings, which recovered from a negative 2.5 percent growth last year to positive 5.0 percent this year.&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;Government Consumption Expenditure (GCE) accelerated to 10.8 percent from a growth of 9.9 percent last year with the disbursement of government funds for infrastructure project.&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;Investments in Fixed Capital Formation expanded by 10.3 percent from last year’s growth of 2.2 percent on account of vigorous investments in construction.  Construction grew by 17.6 percent from 5.7 percent with the hike in national government’s capital expenditures and capital transfer to LGU’s resulting in the 33.4 percent growth in public construction from 39.6 percent in the previous year. On the other hand, investments in private construction rebounded to 7.4 percent from negative 8.7 percent in 2006.  Meanwhile, Durable Equipment sustained a positive growth of 4.9 percent from negative 0.5 percent in the same period last year.&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;Reeling from the crisis faced by the US economy, total Merchandise Exports skidded to negative 3.7 percent from a growth of 2.2 percent in the same quarter last year.  &lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;The top five Merchandise Exports were: Finished Electrical Machinery, which bounced back to a 19.5 percent gain from a 14.0 percent decline; Crude Coconut Oil, which recovered from negative 39.7 percent to positive 9.6 percent; Semiconductors and Electric Microcircuits, which expanded to 1.7 percent from negative 4.3 percent; Canned Pineapple, which rebounded to 29.3 percent from negative 7.3 percent; and Prepared Tuna, which grew by 69.1 percent from 48.9 percent.  Exports of Non-Factor Services, on the other hand, accelerated to 6.4 percent from 2.9 percent in the previous year.&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;Total Merchandise Imports, which has been on a downhill since the first quarter of the year, continued to shrink by 3.2 percent in the fourth quarter from last year’s 0.3 percent growth.&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;Only three subsectors contributed positively to the growth of Merchandise Imports:  Cereals and Cereals Products, with a hefty growth of 96.4 percent from a measly 0.8 percent last year; Mineral Fuels, Lubricants and Related Materials, up anew by 7.6 percent from 11.1 percent; and Dairy Products, which accelerated to 10.8 percent from 9.9 percent.  On the other hand, imports of non-factor services slowed down to 11.1 percent from 17.6 percent due to the lackluster performance of Miscellaneous Services, which contracted by 0.4 percent from a 17.4 percent gain last year.&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;The terms of trade during the quarter resulted in a Trade Index of 104.2 percent from 109.2 percent in the same period last year.  Trading Gains for the quarter amounted to P6.1 billion.&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;GNP Implicit Price Index (IPIN) stood at 497.1 from 478.6 in the  previous year or a 3.79 percent inflation from 2006.&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;   &lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;ROMULO A.

The&lt;br /&gt;AHRC also serves as the secretariat of the Human Rights Standing&lt;br /&gt;Committee of the Law Association for Asia and the Pacific (LAWASIA).&lt;br /&gt;Bridges Across Borders works on a wide variety of initiatives in&lt;br /&gt;community development and capacity-building, child protection and&lt;br /&gt;education, transitional justice and community legal education.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The conference program will include opportunities to learn about local&lt;br /&gt;justice education activities, such as the AHRC internship program, in&lt;br /&gt;which law students are introduced to the field of alternative or&lt;br /&gt;developmental law practice through exposure to grassroots life and to&lt;br /&gt;human rights advocacy in the Philippines; non-government organizations&lt;br /&gt;from the coalition of Alternative Law Groups; paralegals based in&lt;br /&gt;rural areas serving marginalized sectors such as farmers and fisher&lt;br /&gt;folk; and various clinical legal education programs in the&lt;br /&gt;Philippines, including a mandatory program at the law school at the&lt;br /&gt;University of the Philippines.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The GAJE Conference Planning Committee is finalizing dates, conference&lt;br /&gt;themes, and the call for participation, which will be sent by email to&lt;br /&gt;all GAJE members.

The after-school program targets Filipino American&lt;br /&gt;children in elementary grade levels 1-3.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The goal of the class is not only to teach the students Tagalog, but&lt;br /&gt;also about the different facets of Philippine culture, art, history,&lt;br /&gt;literature and geography.  The program design follows the curriculum&lt;br /&gt;standards adopted by the California State Board of Education for&lt;br /&gt;elementary school levels.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The objective of the program is for the students to gain a deeper&lt;br /&gt;awareness and understanding of their cultural heritage, thereby&lt;br /&gt;strengthening their own identity as Filipino Americans.  In addition,&lt;br /&gt;their exposure to a culture other than the one they are entrenched in&lt;br /&gt;will motivate them to learn more about the world around them and reach&lt;br /&gt;their full potential as learners.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PROGRAM DETAILS:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dates: Saturday, March 15 – Saturday, June 21, 2008&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Location: Pacific Community Center, Glendale, CA&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Address: 501 S.

The purpose of the Alliance was, and&lt;br /&gt;continues to be, to build a strong network and community between the&lt;br /&gt;organizations in order to pool resources and increase education and&lt;br /&gt;awareness, and provide support to old and new upcoming organizations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Alliance brings together the various student groups on higher&lt;br /&gt;education campuses across the state of Washington and Oregon. For the&lt;br /&gt;past 14 years, NWFASA has put together a conference to gather Filipino&lt;br /&gt;American students for a weekend of learning, leadership, networking,&lt;br /&gt;and team-building. The conference continues to be annual, attended by&lt;br /&gt;more than 400 students, and has been held throughout Oregon and&lt;br /&gt;Washington. NWFASA's purpose is to build a strong network and&lt;br /&gt;community between the organizations in order to pool resources,&lt;br /&gt;increase education and awareness, and to provide support to current &amp;amp;&lt;br /&gt;new organizations. NWFASA's goals are for the betterment of our&lt;br /&gt;Filipino American community through education, student activism, and&lt;br /&gt;involvement.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As the Alliance continues to grow in organizations, including several&lt;br /&gt;in Oregon, it has been renamed the Northwest Filipino American Student&lt;br /&gt;Alliance (NWFASA).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Current NWFASA members:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;AnakBayan Seattle and UW&lt;br /&gt;Central Washington University -
