PHILIPPINE'S FINEST

As we walk through life we see the constant change around us as everything follows its natural life cycle. Our body is no exception; it is constantly changing growing and evolving. Yet the person within the body, that silent witness to all we experience, has an eternal quality of something much greater and more permanent that who or what we think we are. CLICK ME FIRST BEFORE YOU READ MY ARTICLE! In our quite moments when we are walking or sitting with nature, our feelings reach out and connect and touch a deeper layer of our heart and soul. We become in union with that hidden force that orders the whole of creation. We can be one with this field of love, this presence of the divine, which is within us and surrounding us in each moment of our lives. All we need to do is just be present and our awareness will naturally settle and become one with its divine nature. We leave behind our physical nature and connect with that presence of love that underlies the phys...

Businesses operate to achieve various goals. To meet these goals a business must achieve two primary objectives: To earn a satisfactory profit and to remain solvent (be able to pay its debts). If a business fails to meet either of these primary objectives, it will not be able to survive in the long run. Financial statements are accounting reports used to summarize and communicate financial information about a business. Three major financial statements - the income statement, the statement of changes in financial position, and the balance sheet - are used to report information about the business's primary objectives. These financial statements are the end result of the accounting process. Each of them summarizes certain information that has been identified, measured, recorded, and retained during the accounting process. Income Statement: An income statement is a financial statement summarizing the results of a business's earnings activities for a specific period of time. It ...

By: Davina deWitts I do things by halves. Sometimes, if I'm lucky I'll get 80% done before I allow myself to get distracted, just stopping short of completion. Just look inside my wardrobe and see the amount of things completed to 80%. Unfinished bags I've started sewing, knitted scarves with the knitting needles still threaded through, unsent postcards that are too old to post, a half assed filing system (the stuff that needs to be filed is in a big fat pile next to the phone). Look inside my email account and see 10 draft copies of letters I've been meaning to send (one is dated back to a year ago), and other countless emails I've left unread with the intention to read and reply. If I do eventually finish something, the pressure has to come from an external source (like a boss (which I don't have at the moment), or an irrevocable deadline). But even then, the journey to completion certainly isn't a pretty one. It's sorta like carrying a whinging child...

Note: I received this story in an email this morning. I'm publishing this here so I can share it with the readership. When Minister Joe Wright was asked to open the new session of the Kansas Senate, everyone was expecting the usual generalities, but this is what they heard: "Heavenly Father, we come before you today to ask your forgiveness and to seek your direction and guidance. We know Your Word says, "Woe to those who call evil good", but that is exactly what we have done. We have lost our spiritual equilibrium and reversed our values. We have exploited the poor and called it the lottery. We have rewarded laziness and called it welfare. We have killed our unborn and called it choice. We have shot anti-abortionists and called it justifiable. We have neglected to discipline our children and called it building self esteem. We have abused power and called it politics. We have coveted our neighbor's possessions and called it ambition. We have pol...

Filipinos never learned it's lesson from the catastrophic Ondoy ! When undas is over, so many garbage were littered in every cemetery here in Metro Manila. As if we didn't know the effect of those non-biodegrable plastic bags to the environment. We've been told about its harmful effect towards the environment countless of times but we Filipinos simply ignore it. The flood brought about by tropical storm Ondoy is supposedly enough to remind us that we must learn from the effect of our action. But while we are still in the process to recover from the catastrophe, again we are back into our habit of disposing garbage especially used plastics irresponsibly. Now, do we really have solution for this? My suggestion is that we should reuse (read: recycle) those plastic bags! Our purpose in using recycled bags is to protect the environment. In doing so, we may be able to reduce the amount of plastic grocery bags that end up in landfills, Laguna Lake, Pasig River, and in the seas....

Philippine authorities said Friday they were preparing for the worst as a typhoon was set to hit the nation's capital and nearby areas still reeling from storms that claimed more than 1,100 lives. Four more provinces in southern Luzon and the Bicol region have been placed under Storm Signal No. 3 as typhoon “Santi” accelerates while continuing to zoom in closer to Quezon province, the weather bureau said yesterday (Oct. 30). "Residents in low-lying areas and near mountain slopes under signals #3, #2 and #1 are advised to take all the necessary precautionary measures against flashfloods and landslides," the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) said. The weather bureau also warned those living along coastal areas to watch out for storm surges and big waves generated by the typhoon.
