Online freelance workers get support from Bam Aquino | ABS-CBN News
Aquino encouraged the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) and the Department of Science and Technology -ICT to craft an e-Commerce Roadmap that will help concerned stakeholders, especially in terms of Internet speed and access.
“The rate of Internet access has increased about 10 to 15 percent since 2010 as a whole. The more we increase our Internet usage and Internet penetration, we are looking at a space where we can generate employment,” the senator said.
Aquino also urged the Bureau of Internal Revenue and DTI to relax their registration rules and provide incentives to encourage online-based workers to get into the formal economy.
“Let’s not cast fear among the online freelancers, if we can get them into a nurturing environment, we can actually help their businesses grow. Once they grow, they will provide employment, provide for their families and it will go back to the economy anyway,” he said.
“Let’s review the Barangay Micro Business Enterprise Law or BMBE Law –which exempts a business owner from paying income tax as long as its assets are not higher than P3 million, and see how it can be applied to online freelancers.”

The Blackmagic Production Camera and Pocket Camera: A Review | Filmmaker Magazine
If I had a bucket list it would include making movies people love. File this one on stuff I’d eventually use for this I’d love to do someday!
Why do I prefer Blackmagic cameras? Really simple: I like the picture quality.
I reviewed the Cinema Camera for Filmmaker last fall, so now I’m going to focus on the Production Camera — which I tested for two weeks in July — and, to a lesser extent, the Pocket Camera, which I’ve owned since January.

Good friends are hard to find – and even harder to keep | Tim Lott | Commentisfree | The Guardian
I do not know what I am doing right to have kept such good friends for so long, but it is certainly worth pointing out that none of them have got to the present point without negotiating moments of crisis. In each of my closest friends there have been moments when the friendship has nearly foundered – but we somehow came through them to a relationship that was stronger than it was before the crisis.
The nature of friendship changes, and you have to change with it. Once, hopefully, I fascinated my friends and charmed them. After 40 years, I am sure I often bore them – and that is inevitable. A good friendship, like a good marriage, ceases after a while to be a mutual entertainment society and becomes instead a sorority or fraternity of battle-scarred veterans. We are still here, we still enjoy being around each other, and we treasure our shared histories. This is something precious, even if it isn’t always a laugh riot.
Is there a secret to long friendships? Simply this – an absence of pride. Too many falter on stubbornness or the determination to hold on to offence. Successful ones rely on humility and the recognition of human fallibility. These are not merely useful attributes. They are the heart and soul of friendship.

I’ve had it with all these Activists who are just pushing for one Imperialist State over another.
These activists love to criticize American Imperialism while are astoundingly silent with american imperialism.
Well for me I say a Philippines for Filipinos. Not for China, not for the USA and even not for Japan.
End of the Eternal September
After not reading my feeds for so long why does it feel that the Eternal September has ended at least for the blogosphere. Seems the stupid people have migrated elsewhere
Musing 2014 06 09 1843
Sometimes we feel alien in our own society. That’s what drew me into watching foreign films. Filipino culture sometimes tends to be less retrospective too permissive and yet too suffocating that seeing a different perspective, a new perspective can breath fresh air to a thousand conversations done thousands of times with different people on the same inane things.

They Limit Their Caffeine Intake
Drinking caffeine triggers the release of adrenaline. Adrenaline is the source of the “fight-or-flight” response, a survival mechanism that forces you to stand up and fight or run for the hills when faced with a threat. The fight-or-flight mechanism sidesteps rational thinking in favor of a faster response. This is great when a bear is chasing you, but not so great when you’re responding to a curt email. When caffeine puts your brain and body into this hyperaroused state of stress, your emotions overrun your behavior. The stress that caffeine creates is far from intermittent, as its long half-life ensures that it takes its sweet time working its way out of your body.
They Sleep
I’ve beaten this one to death over the years and can’t say enough about the importance of sleep to increasing your emotional intelligence and managing your stress levels. When you sleep, your brain literally recharges, shuffling through the day’s memories and storing or discarding them (which causes dreams), so that you wake up alert and clear-headed. Your self-control, attention, and memory are all reduced when you don’t get enough—or the right kind—of sleep. Sleep deprivation raises stress hormone levels on its own, even without a stressor present. Stressful projects often make you feel as if you have no time to sleep, but taking the time to get a decent night’s sleep is often the one thing keeping you from getting things under control.
