rwikxy's Top Ten Events of 2009 1. Death of Cory Aquino 2. Federer's Return to the Top 3. Formula 1, The whole Season 4. Death of Michael Jackson 5. Somalia Ship Hijacking 6. Facebook overload 7. POS System 8. Maguindanao Massacre 9. Global recession 10. Paquiao vs Cotto Year 2009 is not really a big year for me, life goes as usual with a little ups and downs, big story that caught my attention is the death of the former President Cory Aquino. She is the 1st woman president of this country, the one who restored freedom from a dictator and I can say that she is well loved by the Filipino people. Her death did not come as a surprise, she was fighting the big C - cancer. Her legacy will forever be in the books of history and will always be remembered. Now, what's with the incoming year 2010, I don't know, whatever this new year brings, I just hope that it would be for the better of everyone not only to myself but also to all the human beings. Let's just hope that this

oh my, it's the last day of the year, i woke up as early as 4am thinking of going to the airport to pick up my brother, his wife and son only to know that they'll arrive at about 10am... will yeah, we arrived to this day again, the last day... i remember last days are not exactly last but rather a start of a new one, last day in school, last day at work, last day of vacation and the list would go on, wonders what would 2010 be for me... hrmmm... peace!

i really did so little for my blog this year, too busy? just being lazy that's all... well, okay, in a little 1 day and a few little hours the year ends, if i'll let myself think of what have happened within this year, probably i'll go nuts thinking about it all, need to keep on looking forward and just move, move, move, and move on... i'm working on my top 10 list right now, and i thought of giving a little time for another update before i finally say goodbye to the year 2009 won't hurt... peace!

about 4 days more and the year ends, need to do again my 2009 top 10... hrmmm... peace!...

after tomorrow, i'll officially have my Christmas vacation, went with mom to pickup some groceries today, going in a mall in the morning is the best time to do it... days are running fast and the year will soon end but the strangle and challenges continues... and i'm liking it... peace!...

Glueria declared martial law in Maguindanao, ( full text of the Proclamation No. 1959 ). We understand that there's danger in the area after the massacre , big questions arises from the proclamation though, 1) The constitutionality of the said proclamation 2) The need of such proclamation 3) The danger of the proclamation, It is a common knowledge that under the martial law, the writ of habeas corpus is suspended and the military has the full control of almost everything. It was 38 years ago, when the country experienced military control and the public don't feel comfortable with this actions by the Glueria government. Is this a prelude to a wider coverage? Dry run daw sabi nila. One reason of the declaration is rebellion. WHEREAS, R.A. No. 6986 provides that the crime of rebellion or insurrection is committed by rising publicly and taking arms against the Government for the purpose of xxx depriving the Chief Executive or the Legislature, wholly or partially, of any of their po

December! the most awaited month of the year, not because it's the last month of the year but rather it's again a celebration of our Lords birth... peace!

i really find it funny to see this scripted convincing acts the gloria camp is doing, it's like showing the public that there's really a clamor for her to run as a representative in a district back in her province, if you really mean to help people you don't need to be an elected official to actually help them, look at how former presidents of the US have done things after their presidency, reality is that there's a real reason behind all of this drama and the actors are not doing it well, power in government is really addictive... tsk2x... peace!...

it's almost end of the month and i haven't made an entry in here, hrmmm... quite busy in school and my online jobs (farming, fishing, cooking and being a mafia, if you're into facebook you know what i mean, hehhe)... got a backfire from Gladys, thanks for dropping by my space and here it goes... climate change people... peace!

1st day of November, yey! went to the memorial park today with my mom, my cousin and his wife was also there to visit my father's grave and my grandmother as well... days are running fast... class starts tuesday... peace!...

2 more days and 2nd semester starts, yeah, we're starting on the 3rd of November which also means early school year end for us... today is the last day for the 2010 election registration all over the country, COMELEC is open until 12am tonight to accommodate those last day registrants... over the news some people are losing their cool with the ongoing registration due to the long lines and maybe with the not so organized flow of the registration... since December last year there are already around 3 million new voters who registered, errr.. wait... did i say December? yes i did, and only if these people tried to register earlier they will not face this kind of problems anymore, long lines, shortage of registration forms and waiting as early as 6am and finally registering 12 hours later... this attitude of "mamaya na [later]" is bringing us to no where, we always talk about change in society but we need to understand that to attain change it should start from within us,

So the president signed RA 9716 creating a new district in Camarines Sur (CamSur) province in Bicol region. Now what? " Section 5-3, Article 6 of the Constitution requires a minimum population of 250,000 for a local government unit (LGU) or clusters of LGUs to be declared a congressional district. Each district should be composed of a “contiguous, compact, and adjacent territory. " -- " Based on the 2007 census, the proposed new district—composed of the municipalities of Cabusao, Del Gallego, Lupi, Ragay, and Sipocot—only has a population of 176,383 " While we need to see the latest census considering the booming population of our country, for now it is right to say that differently it fails to qualify as a new district and RA 9716 is unconstitutional.

1987 Constitution of the Republic of the Philippines ARTICLE VII EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT Section 4. The President and the Vice-President shall be elected by direct vote of the people for a term of six years which shall begin at noon on the thirtieth day of June next following the day of the election and shall end at noon of the same date, six years thereafter. The President shall not be eligible for any re-election . No person who has succeeded as President and has served as such for more than four years shall be qualified for election to the same office at any time. No Vice-President shall serve for more than two successive terms. Voluntary renunciation of the office for any length of time shall not be considered as an interruption in the continuity of the service for the full term for which he was elected. Former President Estrada finally declared his full intention to run for the presidency for the 2nd time around, he said " This is the last performance of my life, ". Everyo

A typhoon poured a rain equivalent to one month in just one day in Manila which caused a massive flooding, it forced millions of people out of their homes and destroying billions worth of properties. Never in history that this kind of flooding occurred and no one even expected it to happen. A few weeks later another storm hits the island resulting to land slides at the northern part of the country and the flooding destroyed crops. Why is this happening? To answer, we need to climb up our mountains and see for ourselves if we still have trees; we need to go outside and smell the air we breath; or maybe we simply need to open our eyes and understand that we are the culprit. We need to act to improve the quality of our atmosphere, go for renewable energy, eliminate fossil fuels, protect our nature, plant more trees, let's reuse and recycle.

i just learned a new thing when coding tables in html for IE8, i faced this problem of extra white space below the row as shown in the figure below... this is how the code looks like... fixing the problem, i can't seem to find where it went wrong so i tried coding with a different structure this time... after that it looks like this... now i learned that the coding structure matters when it comes to IE8 rendering, unlike in other browsers like firefox where spaces after the image is considered as nothing, i assume IE considers this to have a space character thus creating a white space just below the row... just a cent... peace!

stayed up until 2 am last night watching the wimbledon finals between roger federer and andy roddick... the game lasted for more than 4 hours with 5th set ending with 16-14 for federer... it was a tough game, andy was unbreakable the whole game the only time federer broke his serve cost him the title... federer now has 15 grand slam on his resume making him the greatest player ever and regained the number 1 spot at the ranking... peace!...

firefox 3.5 is out and yes it's faster and better, download the new version here ... peace!

i'm not a big fan of michael jackson but his legacy particularly in the field of music is something we can't simply ignore, he is the king of pop, a symbol, and a legend... his death at a young age of 50 came as a shock to the millions of fans who are waiting for his comeback sold out concert next month... may you rest in peace MJ and thank you for the music.... peace!

time is running fast and yes school is about to start, actually some school already did, we will have ours on the 15th... almost done with our project, doing the last module now which is the report part, have it in pdf for easy printing, using an epson lx300 is such a pain when it comes to report formatting, hope to finish it all up before the classes starts... peace!...

i finally saw a browser based POS just a while ago, been in that grocery store for how many times but i were not able to check how their system works... it is ran using firefox on ubunto os... very simple gui and functionality, now i'm starting to review our own system to adopt some interfaces for a more effecient system... peace!

first post for the month of May, whew! am i that busy?... not really, just not in the mood to post an entry but anyway i'm doing it now... so what's up with me right now... hrmmm... currently doing the project that we need to deliver by the end of the month, i'm almost done with the record module and need to see the client to finalize some report generation formats... at the moment i'm working on the POS module, i find it really interesting and at the same time challenging doing this one, you know why? it's a web based POS, normally you would see this kind of system done in higher language like visual basic or C++(i have yet to see web based POS that functions like the desktop), in our part we want it done differently and implemented easily added to that is the ease on maintenance and the development cost is a way cheaper that the usual, though the cross browser issue is still a brain drainer... to my angel, always thinking of you... peace!

can't let April leave without throwing something out from this head of mine, so whats cookin?... still working on the project right now where i'm hoping to finish by the end of May, had a talk with the client last night for some details and clarifications, so far things are going the way we wanted... 1 month more to go and the new school year starts... to my angel, always be here for you... peace!

What is so amazing about love is that it hits you without warning and you’ll just find yourself being in love with a person just like that. Love is not something you choose to feel and for who that feeling is for, that’s the wonder of love and it’s great to be in love. Love is not a two way process though as most people would believe, we love because it’s a feeling and the people we love sometimes doesn’t feel the same way as we do. How’s that for a situation?... peace!...

exam today and tomorrow for all of my classes, paper checking, score recording and grade computations will follow... MV Doulos is in town, went to check the books on sale but it's too crowded so we decided not to stay long, there's a lot of good books specially children books and those motivational ones... check www.doulos.org for more information about it... got myself a doulos coffee mug, an addition to my collection... thank you for the understanding and forgiveness my angel... =)... peace!

CAS!... one week of fun, sports and unknown activities that would pop up anytime in the week... peace!
