Action Speaks Louder than BLOGS

I have heard a lot of complains from the people who are currently employed in the previous company I was working with. They are complaining about having a delayed salary they are suffering right now, AGAIN. Just last few days ago, I received 3 messages from them asking to lend money to me. First, I was wondering why they want to lend money to me, when they have their job and I don't. So, I asked them why and they told me that again and again the same problem we had before for the past 3 years on that company the same scenario is still happening, the never ending " DELAYED SALARY ". I almost jump out from the chair I was sitting after reading their messages. And I thought, Thank God I am no longer part of that company because I am no longer suffering those long waits of when we can have our salary. You know when I was on that scenario before all I can do is just wait to have our salary and it lasts for days worst sometimes it lasted for weeks. Now, after being out of

Philippines won the world cup trophy on the 2007 Boxing World Cup Philippines versus Mexico at Arco Arena, Sacramento, CA. Rey "Boom Boom" Bautista vs. Daniel Ponce de Leon Gerry Peñalosa vs. Jhonny Gonzales Bert Batawang vs. Francisco Rosas Z Gorres vs Gerson Guerrero Michael Domingo vs. Miguel Roman AJ Banal vs. Eric Ortiz AJ Banal knocked Eric Ortiz down on the 3rd round, Gorres knocked Gerson Gurrero down on the 8th round and Gerry Peñalosa Knocked Jhonny Gonzalez out on the 7th Round with his powerful left hand punch on Gonzales' right side. Bert Batawag and Michael Domingo won by way of unanimous decisions. Unfortunately, Rey "Boom Boom" Bautista is the only one failed to get the victory when he was knocked out by Daniel Ponce de Leon on the very 1st round. He really got his knees weak after being hit by Daniel's power punch. It was Mexico’s only victory in a six-fight World Cup of Boxing against the Philippines. But no worry, because Rey Ba

Since almost everybody tried their best just to be hired and work in Google but not everybody can make it... Here's what Kevin Newcomb wrote in his post " Beating Google at the Hiring Game " about the process of hiring in Google, Inc. Google's consensus-driven hiring process is slow. Act quickly and give limited-time job offers. Google has high academic standards. Target students outside the top tier or those from non-elite schools. Google's consensus-driven approach introduces the potential for one person to sink a candidate. Target socially awkward but brilliant engineers. Google stockholders reacted negatively to its recent hiring binge. Expect their pace to slow. Google stock shot high since its IPO, but may be leveling out. Give new hires an opportunity to share in your potential growth. Forbes also has this article " How To Beat Google To Tech Talent " by Brian Caulfield.

Gone are the days when young adults attended church because they're "supposed to," said Scott McConnell, associate director of LifeWay Research. New research has confirmed speculation that young adults are leaving the church in droves. "Lots of alarming numbers have been tossed around regarding church dropouts," said Ed Stetzer, director of LifeWay Research, the research arm of LifeWay Christian Resources of the Southern Baptist Convention, in the study. "We wanted to get at the real situation with clear research – and there is some bad news here, no question. But, there are also some important solutions to be found in the research. When we know why people drop out, we can address how to help better connect them." Almost all church dropouts were related to life changes. The top reason in this category young adults listed was "I simply wanted a break from church" (27 percent).

Becoming an Effective Skeptic: End Belief, Faith and Certainty “I don’t know.” Perhaps the three hardest words to say in the English language. But perhaps they are also words we should be using more often. You don’t have to look far back into history where people believed things that we would now see as ridiculous: a flat Earth, a sun that orbits us or that blood letting was an effective medical practice. Similarly I don’t think you need to look far back into your personal history to find examples of where you have been wrong. Relationships you felt would last forever that didn’t make three weeks. Career paths you ignored. Beliefs you held that turned out to be false. Benefits of Skeptical (and Critical) Thinking Creativity Planning Quickly Integrate New Facts Reveal Weaknesses Becoming a Better Skeptic Measure Examine Your Scale “What if I’m wrong?” Know the Unknowns Cut the Arrogance Develop an Escape Route Fuel Curiosity Play the Devil’s Advocate Seek Contradic

Slow down the action. Listen well. Give the other person the benefit of the doubt. Acknowledge the other person's feelings. Be strong without being mean. Try to see a conflict as a problem to be solved , rather than a contest to be won. Set your sights on a "win-win" solution. If you don't seem to be getting anywhere in solving a conflict, ask for help. Remember that conflict, handled well, can lead to personal growth and better relationships. Try to see the conflict as an opportunity. The true heroes and sheroes of today's world are not the Rambos. They are those who have the courage and intelligence to deal with conflict in creative, nonviolent ways.

Citing "something vaguely effeminate" about his eight-month-old son Michael, first-time father Joe Oebrick, 32, reported Tuesday that he suspects the infant may be a homosexual. According to Oebrick, Michael has an excessive fondness for bright colors and "things that sparkle." "Sequins, glitter, feathers," said the recent father, listing some of the things that Michael likes. "And he really likes flowers." According to the recent father, his most urgent concern is the confused baby's constant need to suck on a pacifier. "That can't be right. Can it?" Oebrick said. Oebrick said he first began to worry about Michael's sexual orientation when the boy was two months old. "He would giggle constantly," Oebrick said. "And he had a very weak handshake." According to Oebrick, there were several months during which the infant's head would wobble if it wasn't supported by an adult. "He wa

They regularly use the Internet as a convenient source of information, but fail to recognize its potential as an instrument for self-improvement. For this reason, I’ve compiled the following list of articles containing value so profound that they literal

Minneapolis Bridge Collapse Wow, When I saw this, I thought it was just another superman movie where Lex Luthor make another disaster just to test Superman's strength, but unfortunately it is not... This is indeed a real life drama and no, this is not another terrorist attacks (I Hope). Minneapolis, Minn. — I heard the first call to my Blackberry; it came in after 6:30 p.m. CT. In this business, constant communication is a must. However, it wasn’t until the ring of the second call, shortly thereafter, that I realized someone immediately needed me. I pulled my 20-month-old daughter off the changing table and rushed into the kitchen, where I would soon learn the news. The e-mail read "Urgent. Bridge Collapse in Minneapolis. Need you to get to O’Hare. 8:01 p.m. flight." Reading that e-mail, I sprung into action. Typically, I keep a bag at-least semi-packed, for stories requiring a move at moment’s notice. I live fewer than 20 miles from the airport. My record drive

You might have heard that your commute is killing you. But it's not the doughnut and jumbo-sized coffee you've been downing every morning that's doing it. What's really taking a toll on your health is the polluted air you're breathing, lengthy traffic delays and dodging accidents to and from work. Even as the stress mounts, we put up with it, since most of us can't afford to or don't want to live near our offices. Topping the list were Riverside, Calif., followed by Atlanta and Los Angeles. Rounding out the top five were Houston and Washington, D.C., which tied. To minimize your exposure to pollution, Conrad Schneider, advocacy director for the Clean Air Task Force, says drivers should try to avoid roads filled with trucks' diesel exhaust. If you can't avoid traveling with trucks, close your windows and set your air to recirculate.

A rancher from the South Texas town of Cuero is telling a chupacabra tale and she say she has the evidence in her freezer. Phylis Canion says the animal had been lurking around her ranch for years. She said it first snatched cats, then chickens right through a wire cage. “(It) opened it reached in pulled the chicken head out, sucked all the blood out, left the chicken in the cage.” Neighbors speculate the blue-colored animal that was doing all that damage was a chupacabra. The name is translated from Spanish and means goat-sucker because the creature sucks the blood of livestock. So, KENS-TV took samples of the creature and sent it off for DNA testing. Those results are due. Although Canion and her neighbors feel she captured a chupacabra, others like State Mammalogist John Young says she captured a grey fox. “When mange goes untreated it causes this type of reaction. they start to itch, lose all their hair, blue grey coloration. and the animal usually dies from it.”

After-hours socializing can help boost worker camaraderie and advance workers' careers -- and experts recommend that everyone occasionally attend Why you should make the effort. signals you're a team player and helps you control your reputation at work. "Don't jeopardize your job for a $5 beer." Just because alcohol is served at most happy hours and after-hours parties, that doesn't mean you have to drink Watch your mouth Try to listen 75 percent of the time and talk just 25 percent of the time. Leave with everyone feeling they know you a bit better but that you aren't that different from the way you are at work -- which is professional, good-natured, hard-working and respectful. The bottom line: Happy hours can be a great way to get ahead, but save the tequila shots for a night out with friends.

Vice President Dick Cheney is on a tear these days, standing up for his pal Alberto Gonzales, the Bush administration’s failed Iraq policy and his place in the executive branch. But just when you thought you’d heard it all, Cheney came out with a shocking admission: he now knows he was wrong about the insurgency being in its “last throws.” Reuters: “My estimate at the time—and it was wrong, it turned out to be incorrect—was the fact that we were in the midst of holding three elections in Iraq, elected an interim government, then ratifying a constitution, then electing a permanent government, that they had had significant success, we’d rounded up Saddam Hussein. “I thought there were a series of these milestones that would in fact undermine the insurgency and make it less than it was at that point. That clearly didn’t happen. I think the insurgency turned out to be more robust.” More>>

An extremely rare "living fossil" caught by a fisherman in Indonesia is being examined by scientists. The 1.3m-long (4.3ft), 50kg (110lb) coelacanth is only the second ever to have been captured in Asia and has been described as a "significant find". Coelacanths provide researchers with a window into the past; their fossil record dates back 350 million years. These fish are odd in appearance, looking almost as if they have legs because of their large-lobed fins - they are sometimes dubbed "old four legs". The blue fish can also perform headstands, hovering with their head just over the sea floor, possibly to detect food. Scientists previously thought the fish group had died out about 70 million years ago, but were shocked when in 1938 a species was caught in a fishing net off the east coast of Africa. "The fact that another specimen has been found is significant; it confirms that this is a genuine location for another coelacanth's populat

These spectacular images are the most detailed true colour pictures of the Earth that we have ever seen. The clear images, released by NASA, were pieced together from observations taken from a satellite of the land surface, oceans, sea ice and clouds. Using a collection of these satellite-based observations, NASA scientists have stitched together months of observations of the earth's surface and combined them to create a colourful mosaic of our living planet. The result from using these collection of images is a complete and detailed glimpse of every square kilometre of Earth. Most of the information contained in these image came from a single remote-sensing device known as Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer, or MODIS.

The second ancient inscription which was carved on rock in Kaftarlou hill have been discovered in Akhtarabad region in Shahriyar plain located in Iranian western province of Kordestan. Due to the similarity of this writing with those previously found in Susa clay stamps and Jiroft’s inscription, experts estimate that this newly discovered geometrical inscription must have dated back to at least 5000 years ago. Regarding the antiquity of this inscription, Reza Moradi Ghiasabadi, archaeologist and researcher, assrted: "Based on the signs implemented in creating this geometrical writing and its similarity to Susa stamps, it is believed that it must have belonged to 4200 to 4500 years ago. On the other hand, due to the rate of oxidization, we give the possibility that the inscription must have been more ancient."

There's no end to the horror at www.workingamerica.org, where workers are posting bizarre complaints about supervisors, including: "She made me climb into a Dumpster"; "The boss didn't care workers might be crushed and killed"; and one that seems sure to inspire a movie: "My boss knowingly hired my stalker." Working America, a group affiliated with the AFL-CIO, is again collecting anonymous tales of woe like this one with its online "My Bad Boss Contest." And another woman told this tale: "I had been invited to lunch with my boss, along with several of my co-workers. Our boss was known for being, well, cheap. We all prepared ourselves for a fast food lunch at best. We loaded up into his vehicle and he began to drive. He passed several good restaurants - no surprise there - and all of the fast-food options as well. What could possibly be our destination? "A discount warehouse store! And we were treated to a fabulous lunch o

Science is supposed to be about results, but global warming is about belief. President Clinton is good because he said he believed. If you say you believe, you don't have to deliver. If global warming is facing the tipping point, then the United Nations should lean on China. Believers shouldn't put their politics -- United States a must, China a maybe -- before the planet. If undeveloped countries will pay the biggest price for global warming, as Ban said, then that's more reason to make them curb their emissions -- not less. If the economics are clear, as Ban said, he should not have to pressure countries and businesses, execs would be making the right changes without government pressure. And Ban would not have to ask the media for help, as he did Friday. If results matter, Ban ought to be hectoring Democrats in Congress, who are about as likely as Bush to pass a carbon tax. But he's not. And if results really were paramount, why aren't global warming advocate

Are they worse than CO2??? A group of Muslims have opposed plans for a pet food factory to be built as possible pork emissions will violate their religious rights. Butchers Pet Care could shelve plans for a factory in Coton Park, near Rugby, because angry Asian families have complained to their residents' association about pork smells drifting into their garden. Muslim residents in the area also claim the pork will effectively "rain down" on their homes and gardens after the factory's 100ft chimney has pumped the meat extracts into the atmosphere. The Coton Park Residential Association said they have received complaints from Muslims - who are directed to not eat pork by the Qur'an - and are taking the matter very seriously. One family who live less than 100 yards from the proposed factory, but who did not wish to be identified, said: "A significant proportion of meats used in the pet foods processes are pig meat. "Our religion expressly forbids us

source: www.inquirer.net Agence France-Presse BEIJING -- State media on Monday bemoaned the worst performance in decades by China's men's basketball team, which crashed out of the Asian championships in the first round. The upset came as a blow to a country with high hopes for the men's team at next year's Beijing Olympics. Even though China sent a second string team to defend their Asian title in Japan, Titan Sports and other newspapers pointed out that for the first time in 32 years, the 14-time champions failed to reach the event's knock-out stages. The team looked "dead from the neck up," said the Beijing Times, during the later stages of their match Sunday against the Philippines, which they had to win to stay in contention for a quarter-final place. They lost 79-74. On Saturday, the side lost to lowly Jordan. China's chief coach A Dijiang agreed that the team went off the boil at a crucial stage of the defeat to the Philippines. &

source: www.fiba.com TOKUSHIMA (FIBA Asia Championship) - Lebanon showed character to overcome the loss of a mainstay at the crucial stage of the game to score a psychologically important 90-68 win against West Asian rivals Qatar in Group I of the Quarterfinal round on Tuesday. Leading by a none too 'winnable' 64:53 lead, with 01:54 left on the clock, Lebanon mainstay Joe Vogel had to be carried off the court, having suffered a bloody injury in a freak incident. Eyebrows knotted among the Lebanese supporters, for the tall center, in combination with Fadi El-Khatib had played a pivotal role - literally in the basketball sense - in taking his side to the forefront in the encounter. But El-Khatib came up with his best showing of the championship thus far, to cover up for his prolific colleague's and finished with a game-high of 38 points and nine rebounds. "We were in a wonderful rhythm when Joe got injured. That's when I thought I have to raise my game,"

By Ronnie Nathanielsz / PhilBoxing.com The Philippines began its quest for redemption in their opening game in the battle to top the consolation round of the FIBA Asia Men’s Basketball Championship in Tokushima with a hard-fought overtime victory over a tough Syrian team which the Filipinos had earlier beaten in the four-nation Manila Invitational recently. Point guard Jimmy Alapag who has carried the nationals on his tiny frame with unbelievable gallantry and an injured Asi Taulava who played through the pain helped jumpstart the road to salvage some pride after their desperate bid to qualify for the 2008 Beijing Olympics fell apart. The heartbreaking loss to Iran and a fourth quarter collapse that saw the nationals lose to Jordan, winners of the recent Jones Cup, ended the dream but the team refused to give up and engaged the much taller and bigger Syrians in a shootout in Tokushima. Alapag who led the nationals in scoring with 32 big points got some solid support from big man
