NICE COVER! A conspiracy theorist says.
"In order to prevent further panic, make a simple cover-up: invent a fictional blast-prone situation then boom! Use that." Apparently, this conspiracy theorist is not happy with the way that things turn out in the media regarding the G2 blast last week. He almost wants it to be a terrorist blast instead of an accident! [These conspiracy theorists. Go figure.. :)]
Well, I don't have the expertise regarding this. I just say out what most of you out there feel as well as what I read. You might as well check out this blog by Carlos Celdran and Washington Post. In addition, take a look at this editorial piece in Inquirer.
Now, if the explosion was caused by a gas leak, then Ayala screwed up big time AND are responsible for the 11 casualties and the hundreds injured. Expect some legal settlements, prosecutions, in the following weeks. Whatever the case, Ayala will have their hands full, now that the cause is not a terrorist but rather a corporation that people/victims can target in the "blame game" that is sure to follow. [You know, "kasalanan nyo lahat kung bakit namatay ang anak ko!" or something similar.]
Let me entertain the thought of a conspiracy theorist here; well, I've got nothing else to do anyway, so here goes... Let's say, it there is a terrorist plot and the methane gas screw up is a cover up, what would be the next likely scenarios?
Since the blame game now targets Ayala, this will not fit with Gloria's "scheme" to declare a military/police state to extend here term indefinitely. Well, there goes that conspiracy theory.
A delaying and/or diversionary tactic perhaps? A small diversion to prevent further panic while, behind the media, whatever plan the "conspirators" have plotted is now underway, undisturbed, and away from the peering eyes of the public. Now that attention is now focused on Ayala, they are now free to maneuver and do whatever they want. The question now is, who are the freakin' conspirators? The government? Some guys within Ayala? Terrorists? Well, this is something that I would leave to the conspiracy theorists out there. I've had enough! Hehehe :))
Let's just not forget about the 11 victims of the blasts. Like it or not, someone will get the blame. Not sure where that fits exactly with the five stages of dealing with death, but... well... you know how things work there. Someone gets the ax, the fallguy, the sacrificial lamb, or whatever you want to call it. People need someone to blame. And, in my opinion, rightfully so. Someone needs to be held responsible for this. If not the terrorists, it's Ayala.
Condolences to all who relatives who have lost a loved one there.

Finally landed a job...
After a week of interviews, long trips, and painful phone calls, I finally accepted a job. I will be joining the IT team of an educational institution here in Singapore. I went to the hospital the other day for the required physical checkup/exam. I can get them by Friday and, after submitting them to my agent, I can start working this Monday.
I hope Che gets a job soon, too. Time flies fast here and it gets a little too boring if you just stay home.

Landfills kill the land around Metro Manila
I guess Saturday mornings with heavy rain is conducive for reading news online. Here's another news article about the new landfill in Rizal.
I've never been a fan of landfills. It's never a good, long-term solution to garbage. I mean, you are not actually "disposing" the garbage; you're simply "collecting" them in one humongous pit, land which could have otherwise been used more effectively -- housing, farmland, even malls, whatever. Landfills are practically worthless and it also lowers the land value of all the lands around it as well. Not a very wise decision, if you ask me.
I've played SimCity 3000 (yes the old "3000" version one) since it came out years ago. One of the main goals I target there is to have incinerators in the city for two reasons (1) it eliminates garbage problem of my city in no time, and (2) it generates tons of money (neighboring cities send their garbage for a price to my city to dispose of it). The problem, of course, is air pollution. So, I configured the city to develop "environment-friendly technologies". It takes some time, though, and the air pollution is not totally eliminated. Well, I had to chose between air pollution (money-generating incinerators) and garbage/land pollution (land-value-lowering landfills). I always go for the air pollution. :-)
Not sure if it's applicable in the real-world scenario though. What do you think? :-)

AngryBlueSock on Desperate Housewives
In light of the Desperate Housewives controversy the past few weeks, I've been going through YouTube about the said scene and I stumbled into this editorial video by the AngryBlueSock.
Got to agree on something with what he said:
(1) Desperate Housewives should have been a bit more sensitive about this; and
(2) This is blown way out of proportion.
Like what my colleagues in my old job said, "It's a culture thing." Some Americans treat it as just a very simple comment, an opinion of a specific character on the show, maybe intended as a joke. (Hey, this is the country that is always making fun of their own president, but the president is not lashing out at this.) Filipinos, on the other hand, is race of a proud people and would do anything to protect the pride of the nation.
I understand that the Filipino community is only protecting the pride of the hard-working Filipino workers, especially the Filipino professionals who worked so hard to get where they are now. I am not saying that we, as a people, should not react to it, since this is our national pride we're talking about. However, we should take care about how we handle this situation.
It's not really about "why" we should react but "how" we should react. To Americans who make fun of their president all the time, a whole race reacting to a simple comment makes us look petty -- a person acting on petty things always appears to be weak and loses respect. Check the 48 Laws of Power (by Robert Greene) and you'll see what I mean.
So what am I saying? Simple. If you have to react but don't overdo it. We don't want another war just because of this.
Anyway, here's the video of AngryBlueSock:

EPEC application boo-boos
After a busy week of interviews and applications, I still woke up early morning (around 7AM+) and finally got to finish the EPEC application -- the "uploading of the requested supporting documents" part.
I had a mental note already that I'm supposed to crop the scanned images of the required documents, but I guess with so many things going on back then, I simply forgot. Good thing I was able to copy it on my hard drive.
Just a reminder to those applying or are planning to apply for the EPEC, prepare the following:
- passport-size photo (JPG format, MAX 64KB)
- passport particulars page (JPG format, MAX 100KB)
- qualification requirements (e.g. diploma) (JPG format, MAX 100KB)
I should have done that earlier; would have saved me about 30 minutes of my time. :-)

From the Golden Baul: My Transformers figures
While sorting through my good ol' reliable portable harddrive, I came across this several months old pictures of some of my Transformers figures, brought by Che from Hong Kong.
Note: the pics are low res, so please don't flame about them not being too darn clear, okay? :)

Walking interviews...
After a week of fun, laughter, and tons of sight-seeing, we finally had our first interview since we got here. It's been a long while since I had my last interview so I guess that explains the jitters I got when I got my first phone interview last Monday. Geez.. I almost hated doing it, but what choice do I have? It's cool to be bum in SG, but I can't be a bum forever. Haaay.. Sayang noh? Pwede sana yun...
Anyway, so far, I've only got HR interviews. I never imagined that we would be bombarded with tons of interviews in one afternoon. We had a meeting with one of the agents here in their office near Bugis station. (By "near" I mean about 5 city blocks away, about half a kilometer. :)) ) After lunch, that's when we get tons of phone calls from several other agents. This was happening during our trip to the Carrefour hypermarket. So while walking and during the bus ride, we were taking turns on the phone most of the time talking to the agent. (Apparently, the agents wanted to get a hold of the both us and try to take us under their wing.) Ha! It was strange experience for me... Walking while interviewing... But I think we did just fine.
Well, here's to hoping that I get a good-paying job asap!

House M.D. quotes
I'm a big fan of House. In case you haven't been watching much TV, you can find more info about this TV show here.
Here are some quotes from the show, taken from this link. (Some quotes here are, I guess, somewhat applicable to my line of work. Same line of thinking, just different fields):
_______________________________________________
Dr. House: Everybody lies.
Dr. Cameron: Dr. House doesn't like dealing with patients.
Dr. Foreman: Isn't treating patients why we became doctors?
Dr. House: No, treating illnesses is why we became doctors. Treating patients is what makes most doctors miserable. _______________________________________________
Dr. House: Patients always want proof. We're not making cars here, we don't give guarantees.
____________________________________________________
[House arguing with Cameron]
Dr. House: But you didn't have to. People choose the paths that grant them the greatest rewards for the least amount of effort. That's the law of nature, and you defied it. That's why I hired you. You could have married rich, could have been a model, you could have just shown up and people would have given you stuff. Lots of stuff, but you didn't, you worked your stunning little ass off.
_______________________________________________
Dr. House: I take risks; sometimes patients die. But not taking risks causes more patients to die, so I guess my biggest problem is I've been cursed with the ability to do the math.
_______________________________________________
Dr. House: We're a bit of a specialized hospital. We generally only deal with patients when they're actually sick.
_______________________________________________
Dr. Foreman: You have no evidence to support a poisoning diagnosis.
Dr. House: Which is why it's gonna be so cool when I turn out to be right.
_______________________________________________
Dr. House: Just 'cause he says I hit him doesn't make it true. Watch. [Shouts to the heavens] I am surrounded by naked cheerleaders! [Nothing happens] See?
_______________________________________________
Dr. House: He thought he was dying. Dying people lie, too. Wish they'd worked less, they'd been nicer, they'd opened orphanages for kittens. If you really want to do something, you do it, you don't save it for sound byte.
_______________________________________________
Dr. House: Work smart, not hard. That's my philosophy, boss.
_______________________________________________
[Dr. Wilson is examining Dr. House's leg with the MRI]
Dr. Wilson: [gruff disguised voice] House, this is God.
Dr. House: [in MRI chamber] Look, I'm a little busy right now. Not supposed to talk during these things. Got time Thursday?
Dr. Wilson: Let me check. Oh! I got a plague. What about Friday?
Dr. House: You'll have to check with Cameron.
Dr. Wilson: Oh! Damn it! She always wants to know why bad things happen. Like I'm gonna come up with a new answer this time.
[Cuddy bursts in]
Dr. Cuddy: House...
Dr. House: Quick, God, smite the evil witch! [Wilson wisely says nothing]
Dr. Cuddy: Are you sitting on evidence that your patient was sexually abused by her father?
Dr. House: God, why have you forsaken me?
_______________________________________________
Dr. Cuddy: These are your big ideas? Somebody's lying?
Dr. House: Hasn't let me down yet.
_______________________________________________
Dr. House: Isn't it interesting... religious behaviour is so close to being crazy that we can't tell them apart.
_______________________________________________
[House makes ghost-like sounds to amuse a child patient]
Little Girl Patient: You're a goof.
Dr. House: Takes one to know one, loser. [Patient's mother looks at House in shock] Wait, that means I'm a loser. Scratch that.
_______________________________________________
Dr. Cameron: I can handle a simple consent form.
Dr. House: Okay, I'll be Crandall. Dr. Cameron—
Dr. Foreman: House, from what you say this guy will trust you—
Dr. House: Are you in this scene? Go.
Dr. Cameron: I need to talk to you about a procedure we'd like to do on Leona.
Dr. House: Like to do? Is this fun for you?
Dr. Cameron: He's not you; he's not going to mock me.
Dr. House: Stay in character. I'm so scared; hold me.
_______________________________________________
Dr. House: Can you believe what Cuddy tried to pull?
Dr. Wilson: What now?
Dr. House: She lied to me. She cured my patient with my diagnosis, then lied to me about it.
Dr. Wilson: That doesn't sound like her.
Dr. House: You're right. Does sound like you, though.
Dr. Wilson: What exactly did Cuddy tell you?
Dr. House: Nothing that your body language isn't telling me right now. So what was the plan? I'd feel so horrible by missing a case that I'd re-evaluate my entire life, question the nature of truth and goodness and become Cameron?
Dr. Wilson: Something like that. More that if we'd told you the truth, that you'd solved it based on absolutely no medical proof, you'd think you were God, and I was worried your wings would melt.
Dr. House: God doesn't limp.
_______________________________________________
Dr. House: Infectious or environmental...all we have to do is check out parasites, viruses, bacteria, fungi, prions, radiation, toxins, chemicals, or it's Internet porn related. I'll check the Internet, you guys get the rest of the stuff.
_______________________________________________
Dr. Wilson: Well, I've seen House be rude to you a thousand times, but I've never seen it get to you.
Dr. Cuddy: People think House has no inner censor. But the fact is he holds himself back, because when he wants to hurt, he knows just whereto poke a sharp stick. I have been trying to get pregnant, and House knew. He told me I would fail as a mother.
Dr. Wilson: And you're this upset because you think he's right?
Dr. Cuddy: I've had three separate implantations. The first two never took. The last one I lost.
Dr. Wilson: I'm sorry. You didn't fail. Those where physical events.
Dr. Cuddy: A little girl is... scared and in pain. I was awkward, terrified of doing the wrong thing.
Dr. Wilson: That's normal. That's —
Dr. Cuddy: [crying] I didn't hug her. I didn't even reach out and hold her hand. I told her it was gonna be okay.
Dr. Wilson: She needed reassurance.
Dr. Cuddy: I told her her folks might get back together. When I see people with their kids, it's so natural. It's like they have an instruction book imprinted on their genes. Maybe I just didn't get a copy. Maybe my wanting to be a mother is like a tone-deaf person wanting to sing opera or a paraplegic who wants to —
Dr. Wilson: Whoa, whoa, whoa. Well, I see what you mean about House poking in the right spot.
[Cuddy chuckles wryly]
________________________________________________
Dr. House: RIGHT! She's SIX! She's CUTE! She CAN'T have flesh-eating bacteria! It's just WRONG! Let's cure her with sunshine and puppies! Cute kids die to terrible illnesses! Innocent doctors go to jail! It's because COWARDS like you won't stand up and do what's required! You can sit around and moan about who's the bigger weakling, and I'm gonna' do my job.
________________________________________________
Dr. House: You see, that's what's called a faulty syllogism; just because you call Bill a dog doesn't mean that he is... a dog.
________________________________________________
Dr. Foreman: [to Cameron] People who avoid commitment are people who know what a big thing it is.
________________________________________________
Dr. House: You want third-world treatment? [Turns up the thermostat] You got it. Boy, is it hot here in Jani!
Dr. Cameron: What are you doing?
Dr. House: What am I doing? [He knocks Sebastian's things onto the floor] Putting everything on the floor of the hut. Uh oh, wicked magic box with the moving pictures!
Dr. Cameron: You think he's a hypocrite?
Dr. House: [Unplugging the TV] Hypocrite? No, everyone in Africa's got cell phones or running water. [He has dropped Sebastian's cell phone in the toilet] This thing just will not flush.
Sebastian: Do you really think that if you come in here and make it a little hot, make it smell a little, that I'm just going to fold and abandon everything that matters to me?
Dr. House: [Wiping his cane on Sebastian's blanket] Lousy sanitation over there, too. You are not the same as them; your life is not the same. And you are cheapening everything they're going through by pretending you are.
