Doubt Thrown on Global Warming-Hurricane Link  

Monday, April 14, 2008

Hurricanes are unlikely to become more frequent as the world warms, according to a new analysis by a scientists who until now had supported a link between global warming and tropical cyclone activity. But they may still become more intense.

"The hurricane expert, Kerry Emanuel of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, unveiled a novel technique for predicting future hurricane activity this week," according to a report in. "The new work suggests that, even in a dramatically warming world, hurricane frequency and intensity may not substantially rise during the next two centuries."

2007 saw fewer hurricanes than expected, though there were several rapidly-intensifying cyclones in the Atlantic basin. The early prediction for 2008 is for an above-average year filled with frequent storms and several intense hurricanes.

The art of hurricane prediction, even just a few weeks ahead of a season, is young. Scientists readily acknowledge that the list of unknown influences on hurricane activity is likely to be long.

As the Chronicle put it:

"Scientists wrangling with the hurricane-global warming question have faced two primary difficulties. The first is that the hurricane record before 1970 is not entirely reliable, making it nearly impossible to assess with precision whether hurricane activity has increased during the last century. The second problem comes through the use of computer models to predict hurricane activity. Most climate models, which simulate global atmospheric conditions for centuries to come, cannot detect individual tropical systems."

Newly graduates.  

Wednesday, April 9, 2008


A set of newly graduate’s will conquer the world. Making there world of there own as they apply there knowledge to the real life work. They give there effort and whole life just to graduate and have a job as soon as possible. As they receive there diploma on there graduation day they are planning what company or what will be there path. Some of the graduates are applying in foreign countries. Trying there luck just to have a good fortune and help there family. As these final pages of our life will be finished I just want to clear something that rattle in my mind every graduation day.

Here in the Philippines there are almost a thousand newly graduates are produce in different school and courses. Our Government told us that the Philippine country need all the newly graduates to work here in our country. For example like the Nurses, almost all of the nurses that pass the board exam want to work abroad and the Government are asking a favor that they must work here in the Philippines not in the other country. Do you think loyalty in the country can help you? Graduates are working abroad because of one good reason. The reason is to have a good future and to have a big salary. Do you think the Philippine Government can pay all the graduates a high salary that the graduate will not go to another country? I think that will not be happened. From a super low salary here in the Philippines when you are working here and you will pay a big amount in your taxes every month. I’ve already experience that situation when I was teaching in college school. Kulang pa yung sinahod mo sa ginastos mo araw araw. It’s just like patiwakal sa buhay natin kung ganun ang mangyayari satin. If you work outside the country, as I experience. You will have a high salary and you can save your money for your future needs (sobra sobra pa). You can buy a house and car in just one contract in 10 months period.

For example, If all of the newly graduates will stay here in the Philippines and work here in the Philippines. Are they can occupy all the graduates? Can they give a job for all newly graduates? As of now, almost all of the graduates are working in other country but still, most of Filipinos don’t have there work here in the Philippines. Almost half or ¾ of the population of the Filipino people don’t have any work in our country. So how come that you want all the new graduates to stay here in the Philippines and have there job if our problem are how can the government can give a work to the other graduates here in the Philippines. From meat, rice, veggies, bread, electricity, gasoline are increasing there prices but the salary of the Filipino people are not increasing. Do you think I can work here in the Philippines and suffer like these? Do you think you can be loyal in the country if our mother land cannot help us? There is one in demand job here in the Philippines and that is the Call Center. Any graduate of any course can work here in the Philippines. We suffer and study 4 years on my profession and call center lang ang baksak ko? I don’t blame the call canter but think of the other side. We study a four year course na gustong course natin and pag walang mapapasukan syempre kapit sa patalim call center ang kukunin. So we cannot blame the graduates if they don’t like to work here in the Philippines. A very low salary and di pa magagamit ang course na pinagaralan mo ng 4 years. So foreign country is the best solution to our future.

Rice shortage  

Tuesday, April 8, 2008


Before, our main topic in our country is the ZTE scandal. Almost all of the Filipino’s are affected in this issue (ZTE). From news papers, Television and radio this ZTE scandal is very famous. There are many popular politicians people are involved in this matter. They have many witnesses when the main witness or the first whistle blower decides to tell everything that he knows in the ZTE scandal. Almost all of the Filipino people want to declare a people power revolution in EDSA (again). From ordinary people, and students they agreed to the people power that they want the RP president resign her position. But the AFP is protecting the President and they don’t want to join. The people who want the president resign. They support the RP president to there will. They so called people power doesn’t have effect on the government. Ok let’s just say the RP president resign in her position. Are we going to have an snap election? Etc etc. On this topic I just want to have a simple comment. Even we try to change the Government and who will lead us and we vote to the election. It’s still the same because almost all of the people who are involve in the politics are corrupt. Maski sino matutuksong kukuha sa pera ng bayan.

For now, we have a new problem in the nation and natatakpan ang ZTE scandal dahil dito. RICE SHORTAGE it’s that true? We have a rice shortage in our country? How could you imagine the rice shortage for now? It’s that true or just a pagpaligaw ng ZTE topic. I say that it is impossible that we will have a rice shortage. Do you think that our ancestors have this problem before, like this?. They don’t have this kind of problem like we called RICE SHORTAGE. They don’t import any foreign rice but they are the one who are making there rice to the Filipino people. This rice, the major food of the Filipinos, I think that there no such things like a rice shortage because we are paying all the rice that we eat. Number one, where is the money that Filipino paid in the NFA rice. That’s the big question not the rice are getting short or lack of supplies (get my point?). If you have the budget you can buy rice any time.

I ask my mom on how they produce rice and why they don’t have a rice shortage. My mom told me that they have“miracle rice” that produces by the government when Marcos was the President of the Philippines. In just 45 days they can harvest the rice. On this topic rice shortage there is one question building on my mind. Why are they importing rice? They can use again the miracle rice. In short when you buy on bulk item there will be a discount and that discount will the budget in there pockets. This is the way Filipino Government lives. Corrupt pero di lahat nadadamay tuloy ang ibang walang alam dahil sa corrupt in the Government.
