The weather is cooperating by giving a great shade with not much heat coming from the sun. Indeed, no sunburn to anticipate and I just dipped into the clear waters of Canibad Beach Resort.

I decided I’d do a five-post series about my last five days in Davao. I’ll be leaving for Cebu this Saturday and I want to keep track on how I will spend my five remaining days.

Mark 8: 14-21
Jas 1: 12-18 / Ps 94: 12-13a, 14-15, 18-19
Do you not yet perceive or understand? Are your hearts hardened? Having eyes do you not see, and having ears do you not hear?
(Mark 8:16-17)
How does one fathom God’s kingdom?
Its mysteries who can perceive?
Let’s pray for the Spirit’s wisdom,
To open our hearts and believe.

Great news for us down South!
Cebu Pacific, the leading domestic airline in the Philippines, has inaugurated its operations hub in Davao City last 8 May 2008, to further serve the island of Mindanao. Hopefully this will mean more air routes to the “missionary” destinations on the island. This is the carrier’s third hub, after […]

Nearing Peak

My last mountain climb was on March 20-23, 2008 at Mount Dulang-Dulang, Bukidnon. I was itching to do a minor climb and I decided to hike the mountain of Samal which they called Puting Bato.

I’m not going to post this on the WordCamp Philippines blog just yet, because it’s not yet definite. However, we might have to move the event date in order to accommodate certain factors. End-October would’ve been a good time, but it seems it’s not meant to be.
No problem, really, if the date were changed — […]

I feel like Goldilocks today, sifting through different tables because I’m looking for the perfect work table. The perfect work table for me could be defined as one having a low height difference between the table top and the floor.

I agree with one of my favorite tech news sources (TechCrunch.com) that the next technology war will be fought in the realm of mobile platforms. In the dawn of OS-agnostic and Web-deployed applications, the old operating-systems war seems to be finally fizzling out. (A rather anticlimactic denouement, if you ask me.)
Microsoft and Apple have […]

Apparently, Yahoo’s partnership with Mcafee has some minor glitch. Yahoo Search tags a Google result as malware. Curiously, searching for “google” doesn’t display this warning. Searching for “altavista” does.
Do you think this is an honest mistake, a prank or a joke? Whatever it is, my guess is Google is not laughing.

This blog was indeed featured once again on Manila Bulletin’s Blog-o-Rama! Today’s Issue, May 12, 2008, Technews Section, Page D5. But honestly, it’s too good to be true. Why? Because it’s not twice, it’s just the continuation of last week’s article about Jehzlau Concepts. But hey, it’s like featured twice. Because it’s a new paper […]

At the 5th floor of Gaisano South Citimall in downtown Davao is a simple little coffee shop called Prego Cafe. I rarely go there because it’s almost never along my usual routes, but I enjoy each visit. Yesterday I had to go to CD-R King in Gaisano South (the other outlet in Davao is always […]

Why does this generation seek a sign?
(Mark 8:12)
We do not need to seek a sign
To understand what is divine.
All things will be revealed in time,
Have faith and trust in God’s design.
The Pharisees came forward and began to argue with him, seeking from him […]

The Nokia N81 8GB is a smartphone with a mix of impressive features… and rather disappointing disadvantages. There’s the obvious advantage of having built-in 8 gigabytes of memory space for applications, games, music, videos, photos, what have you. Some mobile-phone critics have complained about the lack of an expansion slot for more memory, but […]
