Sagot Sa Kagutuman

Posted on October 8, 2009 by greenbucks| 10 Comments

Tamad daw ang karamihan sa mga Pilipino. Maaaring totoo, maaari din namang hindi para sa ilan.

Isa ang labis na kahirapan sa problemang kinakaharap ng bansa. Hindi ko na lang hihimayin ang mga dahilan dahil baka abutin ako ng gabi di pa ako tapos magsulat dito.

Dala ng problemang ito ang isa pang problema: kagutuman.

Pero ang kasabihan natin, kung gusto magagawan ng paraan.

Anu-ano nga ba ang mga paraan na puwede maging sagot upang maibsan ang kagutuman?

Ang pagtatanim sa bakuran.

Walang espasyong lupa? Maging malikhain at gumamit ng ibang paraan kagaya nito:

pechay

Medyo mukhang ginutom din ang aking pechay dito at tila bagang ako naman ang tinamad magdilig 😀

Pero hindi ba mas mainam ang ganito, magtanim sa bakuran dahil isa ito sa sagot sa gutom, huwag lang tatamaring gumawa ng paraan para sa kasagutan nito.

At isa pa, nagamit muli ang dapat ay itinapon nang mga lalagyan ng inumin.

Huwag na pong tanungin bakit marami kaming mga ganyang lalagyan ng inumin, alam nyo na yun, hehehe.

Magandang araw ng Huwebes 🙂

New Priorities after Ondoy

Posted on October 2, 2009 by greenbucks| Leave a comment

Rehabilitation seems to be the correct word to use in terms of dealing with the massive losses that happened during Ondoy‘s wrath.

For some, gone are the cars that were either submerged in flood waters or seen floating away from the point of origin. Gone are the soft beds, the treasured books, tech gadgets, HDTV, important documents, and other things that seem important before the deluge came.

Now what?

It seems that there is a shift in the priorities after what has happened.

Now it is more about family, being together, helping those who are in need and cooperation.

Wonderful, just wonderful.

Now, would those looters stop their illegal activities now? Harrumph!

Still on Typhoon-related Issues

Posted on October 2, 2009 by greenbucks| Leave a comment

Panic buying. Health issues. Flooding.

These are just some of the issues that this country has to deal with and I think I haven’t even scratched the surface.

One of the major concerns are the bodies being retrieved due to death from the flash floods.

I am wondering though if having a mortgage life insurance would assure one of having to deal with these things easier.

And God help us as we brace ourselves to face another supertyphoon.

Makabagong Palengke

Posted on September 24, 2009 by greenbucks| 8 Comments

Ang palengke. Bow.

Ilalagay ko sana ang larawan ng talipapa pero nagbago ang isip ko kaya ito na lang, isang makabagong palengke na tinatawag na “MALL”

makabagong palengke

Sa palagay ko maraming hindi na nakatutuntong sa mga maputik, madulas, mabaho at maingay na palengke ang karamihan sa atin.

Oo nga at mainam mamili sa mga aircon na pamilihan, nakakawili sa dami ng makikita, di pa mainit, maputik at mabaho.

Pero ano nga ba ang epekto nito sa mga maliliit na negosyo? Karamihan sa kanila, nagsasara na dahil lugi na. Paano naman, wala na gusto mamili sa kanila, at karamihan, doon na sa supermarket mamimili.

Akala ko noong una, sa lalawigan lang nangyayari yan. Aba, sa takbo ng mga pangyayari, bawat kanto yata meron nang tindahang “We’ve got it all for you”. So, saan  ka pa?

WordCamp Philippines 2009

Posted on September 22, 2009 by greenbucks| 2 Comments

WordCamp Philippines  2009 was  a mixture of different resource speakers who gave interesting talks. Congratulations to the organizers. Woot, woot!

Beau Lebens represented WordPress. Beau’s presentation can be read here.

Markku Seguerra presented WordPress in the wild with topics about deployment,  performance, optimization and security.

I enjoyed Danny Arao’s lecture on being responsible bloggers.

I guess a lot of  bloggers need to be reminded that not because they have the freedom to express their opinions mean that need not practice restraint. And tact. ‘Nuff said.

Seth Bindernagel spoke about the localization of Mozilla. This is Seth’s presentation as seen in Scribd. Translation in Filipino?  Hmmm…

Jeff of VisitSagada.com talked about writing and blogging and yes, it is advisable to “not burn bridges and be nice”. Positivity rules.

Gail Villanueva (her presentation is here) and Karla Redor talked about things tags, CMS,  plugins, custom field, and the like. (Pass the tissue please, am having a nosebleed, hehe)
