			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="KonaBody"><p>Has anyone been to application for a PAG-IBIG Multi-Purpose Loan? If you are not, then you came across to the right page that can help you to start!</p>
<p>Let me share to you my point of views to easily process such loan. Before being anxious to acquire it, there are questions that you will need to answer first to yourselves, to wit;</p>
<blockquote><p>
<strong>Answer these questions yourselves first.</strong></p>
<p>1. I have been working for how many months ?<br />
2. Does my payslip states any indication for the PAG-IBIG Contribution ?<br />
3. Where are their office located and where to ask information ?
</p></blockquote>
<p>Hmmm.. Do you have your answers now? Well, if your are still thinking about the answers to the questions stated above then just continue reading. Below are my answers to the questions..<br />
<strong><br />
I have been working for how many months ?</strong></p>
<p>The PAG-IBIG Multi-Purpose Loan will require you 24 months of contribution for you to be eligible to apply. Track back your employment history as to when you started working since and until now. You will need to know this, since this will also be indicated to the PAG-IBIG Multi-Purpose Loan Application Form (MPLAF).</p>
<p><strong>Does my payslip states any indication for the PAG-IBIG Contribution ?</strong></p>
<p>I was in doubt and when asked by someone if I have a PAG-IBIG Contribution, I said that I don&#8217;t. I never see any remarks or indicated that states &#8216;PAG-IBIG&#8217; in my payslip, so of course, I would say that I don&#8217;t.</p>
<p>In addition, I never remembered such requirement that I would need to apply for PAG-IBIG membership when I had my first job. I can&#8217;t think of how and when!</p>
<p>I would have to say then that it is the employer who had you applied for a membership. Anyways, I am figuring this out to myself to which of the employers I had been that applied me as a member.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s go back to how you will be able to see indications that you had been giving your contribution for the PAG-IBIG fund.</p>
<p><center><img src="http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z63/pathfinderobs/athanobs/hdmf.jpg" alt="hdmf" /></center></p>
<p>The Home Development Mutual Fund (<a href="http://www.pagibigfund.gov.ph/sp_bonds.htm">HDMF</a>) indicated on the image above is our contribution for the Pag-IBIG fund. And so, that figures out!</p>
<p><strong>Where are their office located and where to ask information ?</strong></p>
<p>If you are in Cebu, then you can easily go to the office location. Their building is located near Ayala Center Cebu and is just in front of the new office location of Banco de Oro at the Cebu Business Park. You may also look for the location of this office at your place, <a href="http://www.pagibigfund.gov.ph/directory.htm">click here</a>.</p>
<p>Note that if you are certain enough that you are eligible for applying the loan, I suggest that you just get the Multi-Purpose Loan Application Form (MPLAF) so you can save time other than be on queue for hours just to ask..</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="KonaBody"><p>It&#8217;s been a long time I haven&#8217;t watch a local movie. A Very Special Love teamed up of Sarah Geronimo and John Lloyd Cruz is a good movie for all. I am not that much of a fan but somehow I see that they spark with a good chemistry for a love tandem. I never thought Sarah could be a good actress aside from being a lovely singer idolized by many. John Lloyd on the other hand as we know is a good actor that proved himself with other box office movies. I salute him for inspiring Sarah to portrait a good character on the movie.</p>
<p><center><img src="http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee81/francie09/sg/Picture1.jpg" alt="john lloyd and sarah" /></center></p>
<p><strong>The Story</strong></p>
<p>A fresh graduate Laida Magdalas whose motivation is to apply to a magazine publishing company which is headed by Miguel Montenegro, the man of her dreams. She was instantly hired when she applied as an Editorial Assistant for Miguel&#8217;s colleagues quits after their business discussion. The story goes as Laida Magdalas being patient and motivated to work. But, all of them were seems not appreciated. Events made them closer that she brought Miguel realized himself struggling to prove his name as a Montenegro. Miguel&#8217;s magazine publishing company went to a bad ending but he gained his self-worth, father&#8217;s realization as a son, his brother&#8217;s trust, his employee&#8217;s respect and Laida&#8217;s love!</p>
<p><strong>Recommendation</strong></p>
<p>I love the movie being light. This is not just another date movie. You can invites friends and family to watch this. I myself watched it in solo. It was fun and much enjoyed film for a love story.</p>
<p>I hope that before you go out from home to the movie it will not rain. Likewise, after the movie. Else, you will need to do the &#8216;Sun Dance&#8217;!</p>

<p>Ooops! Did I catch geeky people&#8217;s attention?! Well, This isn&#8217;t about scripting. The PHP I refer here means Philippine Peso (PHP or can be written as Php).</p>
<p>For sure, most of us would want to earn dollars. Because it has a higher rate in exchange of Peso. Sure it is! But there are stuffs that you can&#8217;t just do in the net to earn a dollar a day. To acquire a world wide audience is hard for me, honestly, as I would say to start this blogging journey.</p>
<p>For some, local affiliate programs works for them like <a href="http://www.asiacenturyph.com/philmark/pmserver/affregister.php">Asia Century</a> Affiliate Network. It is not hard to earn a single click or to invite someone to join their advertisers contests. You&#8217;ll earn your rewards!  </p>
<p><strong>So What&#8217;s the Deal for this Affiliate Program?</strong></p>
<p>They offer you a minimum of Php0.50 per ad click and up to Php100 per lead. There are a lot of advertisers they have that you can choose from to show their ads in your website. You might have seen these ads already. I am actually using some of this banner ads here.</p>
<p>I hope you join too and let&#8217;s start earning!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="KonaBody"><p>I had been lately backed to Yahoo! Groups. This is because recently, friends on my high school batch under an organization seems becoming active again on our created group. We were exchanging messages and asking to post and share our images we had on our high school days. Thus, it seemingly will lead us for a reunion.</p>
<p>Well, Yahoo! Groups have become useful for us in exchanging thoughts to which with common interests. Much more, they are now planning for enhancements.</p>
<p>Let me quote to you <a href="http://www.ygroupsblog.com/blog/2008/07/14/whats-in-store-for-yahoo-groups/">what&#8217;s new now</a> and <a href="http://www.ygroupsblog.com/blog/2008/07/14/whats-in-store-for-yahoo-groups/">what&#8217;s to come</a>.</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>What’s new now…</strong><br />
So far, we have released the following to the site:<br />
An entirely new search and browse system. This new system fixes a number<br />
of known issues, makes search updates much faster, and improves the sort<br />
order when you browse for groups (many enhancements related to this<br />
release were highlighted in the recent post called <a href="http://www.ygroupsblog.com/blog/2008/06/18/yahoo-groups-how-long-does-it-really-take/">Yahoo! Groups: How long does it really take</a>).</p>
<ul>
<li>A new “Groups Lab” initiative which consists of a team of folks who work to create features within Groups that can be customized by moderators to fit the specific needs of their group. The <a href="http://www.ygroupsblog.com/blog/2008/07/08/try-out-the-new-people-map-beta/">People Map</a> is an example of a feature that was developed by this team.</li>
<li>A new technology platform for the site (not quite fully released). We are changing every page of the site but doing so in a way that won’t disrupt your existing experience. This new platform will allow us to release features and fix bugs much faster than ever before.</li>
</ul>
</blockquote>
<p><br/></p>
<blockquote><p><strong>What’s to come…</strong><br />
But the exciting news is what is to come in the future. Here is a short list of the features we plan to unveil to you in the coming year:</p>
<ul>
<li>New ways for people to share information with each other within your groups: Product Reviews, Services Directory, Wanted Boards, Address Book, Event Planner, and many more.</li>
<li>Message Boards 2.0: Improving the Message experience within groups in many different ways (e.g. giving members the opportunity to choose which discussions they want to subscribe to, making it easier for moderators to highlight the best content, etc.).</li>
<li>Ability to charge an optional subscription fee for membership to your groups (we have no plans to get in the middle of the transaction, just make it easy for you to make sure members are paying).</li>
<li>Photo Album 2.0: An entirely new photo system with massive group storage and stunningly large photos.</li>
<li>The return of archived attachments: We will process attachments and store them on your group, if you choose this option.</li>
<li>For our non-English speakers, the ability to select the language you want to view the site in and better handling of all types of character sets.</li>
</ul>
</blockquote>
<p>If you got your brilliant ideas, you can suggest or cast your votes to recent suggestions posted by users in improving Yahoo! Groups through their <a href="http://suggestions.yahoo.com/?prop=groups">Yahoo! Groups Suggestion Board</a>.</p>

<p><em>(..and boy bands sings)</em></p>
<p>Those are the lines I hear when phoning their 173 (Globelines Phone) technical support number. Much more, I get stupefied phoning them when having problems with internet connection that I need to wait for even an hour just to be answered by them. And, please note! I don&#8217;t like to hear their boy band songs played while waiting on the line. It never works to calm me!</p>
<p>From the very first time I had services with them, they already sucks. Last year, having just a phone line with them gives me a 3-month problem. I get bad lines and an intermittently no-dial tone. Through going to their service centers is the only key that I got my  phone line working. (Of course, I can&#8217;t phone their hotline and listen to their boy band again, I don&#8217;t have a dial tone!)</p>
<p>But through my mom&#8217;s friend, I was still convinced to upgrade my services this year to a plan that gives me a phone line and an internet connection. We&#8217;ll, I said that I might give them a chance.</p>
<p>With regrets, I should have not! It even worsen my case. I was excited to get a internet connection but it took a month and half for me to have it. I got smooth connection on few days. But I got this stupid problem of intermittent connection up until now!</p>
<p>Are you one of us experiencing this problem? Or, do you want to read more information about complaints of Globelines Broadband connection? Let me share to you some blogs I have read on the net complaining their services, to wit;</p>
