    BIBLIOGRAPHY CORLA, MICHELLE S. APRIL 2013. Profitability of Tupig in Manaoag, Pangasinan. Benguet State University. La Trinidad, Benguet. Adviser: Jovita M. Sim, MSc. ABSTRACT This study was conducted to find out the profile of the producers engaged in tupig production, find out their reasons in engaging in tupig production, determine the sales of the tupig per production and find out the factors that affect the sales of the producers. It was found that most of the producers were secondary and elementary graduates. Producers engaged in tupig production as their only source of income. Tupig was a highly demanded because lot of the tourist and devotees were looking for tupig as a “pasalubong” or take home present or snacks. They also sell some “pasalubong” products like “bukarilyo,” “bukayo”, banana and camote ships and “alamang” for additional profit to maximize the use of their market location and to grab also the opportunity to offer some products of Pangasinense to tourists. Date and day were the major factors that affect the sales of tupig like during Christmas and New year season, Holidays, Holy week, festival of Manaoag, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday are the peak season increased sales of tupig.

The robustness of a road network against such attack is crucial to be studied because it may cripple its connectivity by simply shutting down these hubs. We show the important hubs in a road network based on network structure and propose a model for robustness analysis. By identifying important hubs in a road network, possible preparation schemes may be done earlier to mitigate random terrorist attacks, including defense reinforcement and transportation security. A case study of the Metro Manila road network is also presented. The case study shows that the most important hubs in the Metro Manila road network are near airports, piers, major highways and expressways. Keywords: PageRank, Terrorist Attack, Robustness 1.

  • Homily: Simbang Gabi
    Homily – Simbang Gabi Massi The Most Rev. José H. Gomez Archbishop of Los Angeles Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels Los Angeles, California December 15, 2011 My dear brothers and sisters in Christ, I am honored to celebrate this Holy Mass with you, to begin these nine days of Simbang Gabi, as we get ready for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ on Christmas Day. This is a special day for all of us in the Church in Los Angeles, because we are celebrating the rich Catholic faith of our Filipino people, and your deep roots here in our Archdiocese and in our country, which date back to the first evangelization of America, when the first Filipinos arrived here at Morro Bay in 1587. My brothers and sisters, as you all know, your ancestors were here — worshipping, working, evangelizing, serving the needy, and building our country — almost 200 years before America’s founding fathers. We can never forget this, my brothers and sisters! Always be proud of your roots. Proud of where you come from. Proud of your Filipino history and heritage, your culture and customs. Your culture is a rich treasure and a beautiful part of who you are, a beautiful part of your Catholic identity, which you are called to live and to proclaim as a light in our society. This novena of Simbang Gabi, and all of your traditions of piety and devotion, reminds us that the seeds of the Gospel have been sown in every culture, and have produced fruits of holiness and love.

  • Chinese Influences in Philippine Culture
    Miclat FEATURE ARTICLE Tradition, Misconception, and Contribution: Chinese Influences in Philippine Culture Maningning C. Miclat ABSTRACT This paper discusses Chinese influence on Philippine arts and crafts, as shown in artifacts from the Sino-Philippine trade of pre-Hispanic times—the churches, religious icons, and paintings of the Spanish period— and in the contemporary art of the Chinese Filipinos. The Chinese traditional elements are given new meanings in a new environment, and it is these misconceptions and misinterpretations of the imported concepts that influence and enrich our culture. THE PRE-HISPANIC PAST The Sino-Philippine trade is believed to have begun in AD 982. The History of the Sung Dynasty or Sung Shi, published in 1343- 1374, confirmed that trade contact started during the 10th century. A 13th century Sung Mandarin official, Chau Ju-kua, wrote a geographical work entitled “A Description of Barbarous Peoples” or Chu Fan Chi, the first detailed account on Sino-Philippine trade. The 14th century account of Ma Tulin entitled “A General Investigation of Chinese Cultural Sources” or Wen Shiann Tung Kuo referred to the Philippines as Ma-i.1 The presence of trade is further proven by the Oriental ceramics from China, Vietnam, and Thailand that have been excavated from many places in the archipelago (Zaide: 1990). The Chinese came to the Philippines and traded with the natives peacefully, exchanging Chinese goods with hardwood, pearls, and turtle shells that were valued in China. Traditional Chinese motifs that symbolize imperial power are found in the trade ceramics found in the Philippines. These are the 100 Humanities Diliman (July-December 2000) 1:2, 100-8 Tradition, Misconception, and Contribution dragon and the phoenix; auspicious emblems of prosperity, long life, and wealth, such as fishes, pearls, and blossoms, like peonies; and the eight precious things or Pa Bao, namely, jewelry, coins, open lozenges with ribbons, solid lozenges with ribbons, musical stones, a pair of books, a pair of horns, and the Artemisia leaf.

  • Nytårsrejsen Til Filippinerne – 2014
    Nytårsrejsen til Filippinerne – 2014. Martins Dagbog Dorte og Michael kørte os til Kastrup, og det lykkedes os at få en opgradering til business class - et gammelt tilgodebevis fra lidt lægearbejde på et Singapore Airlines fly. Vi fik hilst på vore 16 glade gamle rejsevenner ved gaten. Karin fik lov at sidde på business class, mens jeg sad på det sidste sæde i økonomiklassen. Vi fik julemad i flyet - flæskesteg med rødkål efterfulgt af ris á la mande. Serveringen var ganske god, og underholdningen var også fin - jeg så filmen "The Hundred Foot Journey", som handlede om en indisk familie, der åbner en restaurant lige overfor en Michelin-restaurant i en mindre fransk by - meget stemningsfuld og sympatisk. Den var instrueret af Lasse Hallström. Det tog 12 timer at flyve til Singapore, og flyet var helt fuldt. Flytiden mellem Singapore og Manila var 3 timer. Vi havde kun 30 kg bagage med tilsammen (12 kg håndbagage og 18 kg i en indchecket kuffert). Jeg sad ved siden af en australsk student, der skulle hjem til Perth efter et halvt år i Bergen. Hans fly fra Lufthansa var blevet aflyst, så han havde måttet vente 16 timer i Københavns lufthavn uden kompensation. Et fly fra Air Asia på vej mod Singapore forulykkede med 162 personer pga. dårligt vejr. Miriams kuffert var ikke med til Manilla, så der måtte skrives anmeldelse - hun fik 2200 pesos til akutte fornødenheder. Vi vekslede penge som en samlet gruppe for at spare tid og gebyr - en $ var ca. 45 pesos. Vi kom i 3 minibusser ind til Manila Hotel, hvor det tog 1,5 time at checke os ind på 8 værelser.
