When Team Pilipinas lost to Iran last Saturday masama ang loob namin mga Pinoy dito sa Tangguh. Dahil na rin siguro sa laki ng expectations ng mga Pinoy sa ating team na maka-advance to the next round ng FIBA Asia 2007 Championships. Medyo malungkot ngunit hindi pa rin nawawalan ng pag-asa. Inom lang kami dito ng konti malimutan lang ang pagkatalo sa Iran...
Yesterday naman when our team beats China aba very elated ang lahat ng Pinoy I'm sure hindi lang dito at sa Pilipinas kundi sa buong mundo kung saan marami ang sumusubaybay sa journey ng ating mga manlalaro pasulong sa muling pag-compete sa olympics. Kaya nga today kahit masakit ang katawan ko at puyat masarap pa rin ang feeling kasi may pag-asa pa tayo. Kailangan lang matalo ng Team Pilipinas ang Jordan to advance to the quarterfinals. Well, easier said than done...remember tinalo ng Jordan ang Team Pilipinas sa recently concluded William Jones Cup... Jordanian ballplayers emerged as the champions there. So bad news was behind us now.. Good news, sarap talaga... sana more good news at talunin natin ang Jordan later today... Tuloy tuloy na sana tayo sa next rounds and hopefully Olympics 2008!!! Go Team Pilipinas!

Today is the first day of hostilities in the FIBA Asia 2007 Championships. This tournament will serve as the 2008 Beijing Qualifying round. The emerging champion squad will play with the world's best in 2008. If China wins the meet, then the runner up will automatically be in the Olympics since China already availed a slot because they are hosting the world's biggest sporting stage next year. Every team on the 16-nation cup will see action beginning 9:00 AM (Chinese Taipei time). Team Pilipinas will face Iran at 6:00 PM (Taiwan time) in it's first game in the Group A (also known as Group of Death by Coach Reyes). Two wins from their bracket will give the team a strong chance of a spot in the quarterfinal round as the top two teams of each group will come out of the preliminaries. Good luck Team Pilipinas! Bring back the glory in Philippine Basketball!

Good luck sa ating team! Ranked tayo as 65th seed internationally.
Maraming pawis at pagsusumikap pa ang kailangan ng ating team para
maka-rating sa Beijing 2008 Olympics. Sana ang mapiling roster ay
ibibigay ang kanilang 200% para makamit ang ultimate goal (sa ngayon)
na makasali sa 2008 Olympic Basketball games.
Sa baba ang listahan ng Team Pilipinas basketball team roster mula sa www.fiba.com.
Sa ngayon labing anim (16) pa ang pangalan na kasama sa roster. 24 hours bago ang first day ng competition ay kailangan maibaba ito sa labindalawa (12). Sino kaya ang hindi mapapasali sa final line up at magchi-cheer na lang from the bench?

State of the Nation Address 2007State of the Nation Address
President of the Republic of the Philippines
Her Excellency
President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo
July 23, 2007
Thank you. Thank you very much Speaker De Venecia, Senate President
Villar, other newly elected leaders of both Houses, congratulations to
you, Senators and Congressmen and Congresswomen. Vice President De
Castro, former President Ramos, Chief Justice Puno, our host Mayor,
Mayor Sonny Belmonte, other government officials, members of the
Diplomatic Corps, ladies and gentlemen.
We meet here today to inaugurate a new Congress after a fresh election.
I congratulate every elected official, from municipal to provincial to
Congress on hard fought and successful campaigns.
Tapos na ang halalan at pamumulitika; panahon na para maglingkod
nang walang damot, mamuno nang walang pangamba maliban sa kagalingan ng
bayan, and to govern with wisdom, compassion, vision and patriotism.
Hangarin kong mapabilang ang Pilipinas sa mayayamang bansa sa loob ng dalawampung taon. By then poverty shall have been marginalized; and the marginalized raised to a robust middle class.
We will have achieved the hallmarks of a modern society, where institutions are strong.
By 2010, the Philippines should be well on its way to achieving that vision.
With the tax reforms of the last Congress, and I thanked the last
Congress, we have turned around our macroeconomic condition through
fiscal discipline, toward a balanced budget. Binabayaran
ang utang, pababa ang interes, at paakyat ang pondo para sa progreso ng
sambayanang Pilipino!!! Maraming salamat ulit sa nakaraang Congress.
We have been investing hundreds of billions in human and physical
infrastructure. The next three years will see record levels of well
thought out and generous funding for the following priorities:
First, investments in physical, intellectual, legal and security infrastructure to increase business confidence. Imprastraktura para sa negosyo at trabaho. Isang milyong trabaho taon-taon.
Second, investments in a stronger and wider social safety net - murang
gamot, abot-kayang pabahay, eskwelang primera klase, mga gurong mas
magaling at mas malaki ang kita, mga librong de-kalidad, more scholarships for gifted students, and language instruction to maintain our lead in English proficiency. Dunong at kalusugan ang susi sa kasaganaan.
Third, investments in bringing peace to Mindanao; in crushing terrorism
wherever it threatens regardless of ideology; and in putting a stop to
human rights abuses whatever the excuse.
We pay tribute to the fearless fourteen who were savagely massacred at
Tipo-Tipo trying to pursue a peaceful and progressive Philippines. We
will not disappoint their hopes. We will not waste their sacrifice. We
will not be swayed from the course we have set in this conflict for
peace with justice throughout our land.
We have created a Philippine model for reconciliation built on
inter-faith dialogue, expanded public works and more responsive social
services. These investments show both sides in the Mindanao conflict
that they have more at stake in common; and a greater reason to be
together than hang apart, including being together isolating the
terrorists.
Imprastraktura ang haliging nagtitindig hindi lamang ng kapayapaan
kundi ng ating buong makabagong ekonomiya: mga kalsada, tulay,
paliparan, public parks and power plants.
Last year I unveiled the Super Regions - Mindanao, Central Philippines,
North Luzon Agribusiness Quadrangle, Luzon Urban Beltway and the Cyber
Corridor - to spread development away from an inequitable concentration
in Metro Manila. Hindi lamang Maynila ang Pilipinas.
The Super Regions was not a gimmick for the occasion but the blueprint for building a future.
In Mindanao, our food basket, I said we would prioritize agribusiness
investments. And I am happy to see that the latest survey in June shows
the hunger rate has sharply gone down nationwide. We have done that.
The Departments of Agriculture, Agrarian Reform, and Environment and
Natural Resources will devote 30 percent of their program budgets to
Mindanao. DAR will move to Davao.Continue reading...

Headlines: Tandang iniputan sa ulo ng kanyang kabiyak na manok!!!
Isang inahin ang natagpuang patay sa loob ng isang bakuran sa Kanto Tinio,
Barangay Tagay. Sa unang akala ay namatay ito dahil sa bird flu subalit matapos
ang masusing imbestigasyon ay napag-alamang namatay ito sa pamamagitan ng
choke the chicken teknik na ginawa sa kanya ng lover nitong Tandang! Ang dahilan,
ng nangitlog kasi ang inahin ay elepante ang lumabas sa egg shell! Isang kahindik-hindik
na pagtataksil! Iniputan sa ulo to the closest level.

Nagmula ito sa isang forwarded e-mail. Nakakatuwa lang kaya share ko na lang...
"Ang galing ni Bebeng"
Registered nurse si Bebeng sa L.A. Kasama niya ang kanyang ina na nagpagamot doon. Namatay ang ina nito. Dahil sa kamahalan ng pamasahe pabalik sa Pilipinas, nagtipid si Bebeng. Pinauwi na lang niya ang kabaong ng kanyang ina na mag-isa. Pagdating ng kabaong, napansin ng mga kapamilya niya na nakadikit ang mukha ng ina sa salamin ng ataul. Nagkomento tuloy ang isang anak, "Ay, naku! Ting nan mo 'yan... hindi sila marunong mag-ayos ng bangkay sa Amerika! Nakudrado tuloy ang mukha ng inay."
Upang ayusin ang itsura ng bangkay, binuksan ang kabaong. Aba ! May sulat na-nakastaple sa dibdib ng ina. Kinuha nila ito at binasa. Ang nilalaman ng liham na mula kay Bebeng:
Mahal kong tatay at mga kapatid:
Pasensya na kayo at hindi ko nasamahan ang nanay sa pag-uwi riyan sa Pilipinas dahil napakamahal ng pamasahe. "Ang gastos ko pa lang sa kanya ay mahigit $10,000 na. Ayoko nang isipin pa ang eksaktong halaga. Anyway, ipinadala ko kasama ni nanay ang mga sumusunod...
Nasa likod ni nanay ang dalawampu't apat na karnenorte at isang dosenang spam. Ang adidas na suot ni nanay ay para kay tatay. Ang limang pares ng de-goma ay nasa loob ng dalawang asul na Jansport na backpack na inuunan ni nanay. Tig-iisa kayo.
Ang iba't-ibang klase ng tsokolate at candy ay nasa puwetan ni nanay. Para sa mga bata ito. Bahala na kayong magparte-parte. Sana'y hindi natunaw. Ang pokemon stuffed toy na yapos-yapos ni nanay ay para sa bunso ni ate. Gift Ko sa first birthday ng bata. Ang itim na Esprit bag ay para kay Nene.
Ate, nasa loob ng bag ang pictures ni inay, japanese version ng pokemon trading cards at stickers. "Suot ni nanay ang tatlong Ralph Lauren, apat na Gap at dalawang Old Navy t-shirts. Ang isa ay para kay Kuya at tig-iisa ang mga pamangkin ko. Maisusuot ninyo ang mga iyan sa fiesta.
Suot din ni inay ang anim na panty hose at tatlong warmer para sa mga dalaga kong pamangkin. Isuot nyo sa party.May isang dosenang NBA caps sa may paanan ni nanay. Para sa inyo, itay, kuya, dikong, Tiyo Romy. Bigyan nyo na rin ng tig-isa 'yung mga pamangkin ko at 'yong isa ay kay Pareng Tulume.
Ang tigdadalawang pares ng Nike wristband at knee caps na suot-suot din ni nanay ay para sa mga anak mo, diko, na nagbabasketball. Tigdadalawang ream ng Marlboro lights at Winston red ang nasa pagitan ng mga hita ni nanay.
Apat na jar ng Skippy Peanut Butter, dalawang dishwashing liquid, isang Kiwi glass cleaner at tig-aanim na Colgate at Aqua Fresh ang nakasiksik sa kilikili ni nanay. Hati-hati na kayo, huwag mag-aagawan.
Isang dosenang Wonder bra ( Victoria 's Secret ata ang tatak) gustong-gusto ni Tiya Iskang society natin, suot-suot din ni nanay. Alam kong inaasam-asam nyo 'yan, tiya. Anim na lipstick lang ang kasya sa bra. Ang Rolex na bilin-bilin mo tatay, suot-suot ni nanay. Nakatakip sa Nike na wristband. Kunin mo agad, Itay.
May isinisik akong zip-loc sa bunganga ni Inay na naglalaman ng $759 dollars. Hindi na ako nakatakbo sa ATM. Puede na siguro sa libing iyon.
Iyong tong na makokolekta, i-time deposit niyo Kuya para pag namatay si Tatay may pambili na ng ataul.Ang hikaw, singsing at kuwintas (na may nakakabit pang anim na nail cutters) nagustong-gusto mo, ditse, ay suot-suot din ni nanay. Kunin mo na rin agad, ditse. Ibigay mo ang
isang nailcutter kay Jay bakla sa kanto.
Tanggalin niyo ang bulak sa ilong ng inay, may isiniksik ako 3 diyamante sa bawat butas. Ibangon niyo lang si inay at tiyak na malalaglag na ang mga iyon. Konting alog lang siguro ng ulo.
Marami pa sana akong ipaglalalagay kaya lang, baka mag-excess at si nanay pa ang maiwan. Basta parte-parte kayo, tatay, kuya, ate, dikong, ditse. Para sa inyo lahat ito. Bahala na kayo kay nanay. Pamimisahan ko na lang siya rito.
Balitaan ninyo na lang ako pagkatapos ng libing. Alam ni ate ang email ko. Paki-double check ang lista kung walang nawala sa mga pinadala ko.
Nagmamahal,
Bebeng |
