Bohol

The Tarsier

Sometimes my siblings and I play "Mayor".  It's not really a game but more like a discussion of "if I'm Mayor, I would..." and we'd enumerate out of this world, almost impossible implementations (almost, because there is still a slight chance of possibility) to our beloved province here in Bohol.  More on those discussions later after the jump.

Tuberculosis

Today is our last day here in the TB DOTS center and for the past couple of weeks there has been a lot of doubts that have been clarified and new information on how to manage Tuberculosis.  The above image snippet is a recreation of a chart we have in our desk.  You can print it, download it and share it with friends, family and co-workers.  You may download the file here.  You may also read the whole information right after the jump.

2012

Sayonara 2012

If you look that the Archives carefully, you'll notice that this is the very first post title that would probably make sense to you.  Yes, last year I decided I am ending my one-word post titles.  Twenty Twelve was a year of milestones.  It was a year of change but it was also a year of recollection, reconnection and re-evaluation. 

Bopha

Bopha (Pablo)

Important Note:  Typhoon Bopha (Pablo) is almost three times the strength of Tropical Storm Washi (Sendong) which crossed North-Central Mindanao on December 16, 2011.  Please take all precautionary measures on this dangerous cyclone.  Refer to your national disaster agencies for more details.

Christianity

The Essence of Christianity

via The BIBLE Baptist Web Store



Let me contrast for you Biblical Christianity with every religion or non-religion on the face of the earth. You can put them all together because they are all the same. Biblical Christianity says that no one is good enough to earn heaven on their merits. Every other faith or non-faith believes that eternal life is earned by good works. Everyone who is not a true Christian (as defined by the Bible, not by men) believes the same thing – “If I am good enough long enough, I will earn the favor of God and be granted eternal life.”

Surface

Last time, Windows Phone. Now, Surface.  I really think Microsoft is right on track here though there were no specifics were given away during the launch that got tech press yapping away their disappointments.  For some specs though here's a rundown.

Outlook

Outlook

Microsoft just unveiled the new face of Hotmail — Outlook.  It sports the new Metro design you find in Windows 8.  It's clean, it's beautiful but still has the Hotmail innards which I hope to be improved very soon. I think one of the general theme of Metro is the ability to unify your third party accounts like Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn in one roof.  It's the same with Windows Phone and it's also the same with Windows 8 and I think that is a really major feature that sets apart from other operating systems.  Read The Verge's article on a more detailed review here.  More screenshots after the break.
