    ISSN: 2349 – 1183 1(1): 04–07, 2014 Research article Ectohydric moss, Thuidium tamariscellum, monitors atmospheric Lead (Pb) pollution in Baguio City, Philippines Madison P. Munar*, Ralph Robie B. Oreiro and Roland M. Hipol Department of Biology, College of Science, University of the Philippines Baguio, Governor Pack Road,2600 Baguio City, Benguet, Philippines *Corresponding Author: [email protected] [Accepted: 25 March 2014] Abstract: This is the first study in the Philippines which adopted the standard moss monitoring procedure to address Lead (Pb) contamination in the ambient air of Baguio City. Pb is considered as one of the seven criteria pollutants by United States Environmental Protection Agency. Analysis of exposed moss tissues was performed using Flame-Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry by Baguio Water District. There is high metal loading observed on the tissues of Thuidium tamariscellum (Müll. Hal.) Bosch & Sande Lac. after exposure along and in between major road intersections in the city.There is no significant variation in Pb concentration in the exposed moss as revealed by One-Way Analysis of Variance. This study reports the presence of Pb in the ambient air of Baguio City and the lack of monitoring is harmful to people and environment. Nevertheless, this study offers cost-effective air monitoring method that can be adopted in cities as newer available technology. Keywords: Air pollutants - Flame-Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS) - Heavy metal - Ectohydric moss - Lead (Pb) - Thuidium tamariscellum (Müll. Hal.) Bosch & Sande Lac.

  • The Truth of Diwa
    The Truth of Diwa Diwa is both the building block and the string upon which all of reality is spun. It permeates all things, and exists in varying states of matter. In a manner of speaking, that chair you see in front of you is Diwa, in a given form. Break it down to its most essential components and you shall see Diwa. However Diwa can be used more than that. It exists in four states: • Agos, Diwa echoing Water. This is the normal state of Diwa, the Diwa that makes up all things. • Tagos, Diwa echoing Air. This is the Diwa that binds things together. It can be manipulated at this level, and if one were to have some means of seeing the invisible machinations of the gods, they will see tiny strands that link everything to everything, as well as the Diwata that embody everything. Diwa in this state can be known as “Fate”, and indeed, the Agents of Heaven call this Tadhana. • Bala, Diwa echoing Fire. This is the Diwa that burns within every living being, and every thing is a living being because everything has a diwata. The Human Eight-Point Soul is made up of this Burning Diwa, and so are the powerful essences of the Karanduun. Burning Diwa can be used to affect other states -- most commonly by having a lot of Burning Diwa, you have more say in how reality works. Thus why Burning Diwa in all beings is known as “Bala”, or “Power”. It is their measure of capability, and it is well known that the Karanduun possess “Unlocked” Bala, which allows their Bala to transcend event that of Gods.

SALDIVAR-SALI Submitted to the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering on May 24, 2004 in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Engineering in Civil and Environmental Engineering ABSTRACT This research formulates a LANDSLIDE RISK RATING SYSTEM for the Greater Baguio area in the Philippines. It is hoped that the tool will be made a part of the physical/urban planning process when used by engineers and planners and used to address risks posed by landslides given the rapidly increasing concentration of population and the development of infrastructure and industry in the Baguio area. Reports and studies of individual landslides in the area are reviewed in order to discover the causal factors of mass movements and their interactions. The findings of these research works are discussed in the first portion of this paper.

  • Notes on Philippine Divinities
    NOTES ON PHILIPPINE DIVINITIES F. LANDA JocANO Introduction THIS PAPER IS ETHNO-HISTORICAL IN NATURE. IT IS DE- signed to put together representative pantheons of different Philippine divinities. The materials for this purpose have been gathered from historical documents, ethnographiC monographs, and Held observations conducted by the writer and other fieldworkers among different indi- genous religious groups in the various parts of the country. No sociological analysis of these cosmologies or their manifest theo- logies is made except to point out that their persistence through time - from the early Spanish contact to the present - indicates they are closely interwoven with the lifeways of the people. The divinities described here are, as they were in the past, conceived as beings with human characteristics. Some of them are good and others are evil. Many stories about the workings of these supernatural beings are told. They participate in the affairs of men. These relationships reinforce local beliefs in the power of the supernatural beings, as those people who participate in community affairs witness how these deities, invoked during complicated rituals, cure an ailing patient or bring about suc- cess in hunting, fishing, and agriculture. Some of these deities are always near; others are inhabitants of far-off realms of the skyworld who take interest in human affairs only when they are invoked during proper ceremonies which compel them to come down to earth. In this connection, the spirits who are always near, are the ones often called upon by the people for help. These supernatural beings are led by the highest ranking deity and not by any one supreme divinity, for each has specific and some independent function.

Pampanga, Philippines MARTINEZ, PhD, MA, RN San Beda University, Abstract Manila, Philippines A defining characteristic of an indigenous group is that it has preserved its unique traditional ways of living, belief system or https://orcid.org/ 0000-0002- pertinent rituals amidst the presence of modernity. One of the 5323-5108 indigenous group residing in the Philippines are the Aeta people, found scattered in the archipelago. One of the unique cultural health beliefs of this indigenous group revolves around the spirit called "anito" and the ritual for appeasing this spirit termed as "pag-aanito." This paper explores the contemporary understanding of a select group of Aeta from Pampanga, Philippines on these unique cultural health beliefs and how their understanding and appreciation of their traditional customs affects their perception of the world, themselves, and their health. Keywords: Focused ethnography, health knowledge, indigenous medicine Context of the Study defining characteristic of an indigenous group is that it has preserved its unique traditional ways of living, belief system or pertinent rituals amidst the presence of A modernity. One of the indigenous group residing in the Philippines are the Aeta people, found scattered in the archipelago and is often described as its earliest inhabitants. Aetas are pygmy people, nomadic in nature and are traditionally animist (Balila et al., 2014; Shimzu, 1989, Waddington, 2002).

  • The Second Song Continues... … and It Was Glorious. Before the Humans Even Existed, It Is Worth Mentioning That There Have Been Previous Beings Before Them
    ...the Second Song continues... … and it was Glorious. Before the humans even existed, it is worth mentioning that there have been previous beings before them. The Lipod, the winged wind-people, and the Magindara, the snake-tailed water-people, have existed much before they have. The tamawo and the palesekan fought amongst themselves in the Corpse of Kalibutan, claiming patches of forestry and life. The palesekan became the Children of the Trees, while the tamawo became the Children of the Crystal, creating large crystalline cities as opposed to the palesekan’s smaller forest-tribes. The dalaketnon wandered across the world and eventually found one of the caves to Sulad, the Underworld. There they met Saragnayan, Lord of Darkness. And so, during the first few years of the Epoch of Heroes, the humans lived in constant fear of various halimaw and yawa, which came from the Sea, for the Sea was the corpse of the Orphaned Spirit. The other races also subjugated humanity under their rule, even the Dragon Lords that were the eventual descendants of the Naga Tribe of the magindara. It wasn't long before The Actor of Power had returned from His voyage, and he found that all of the world was filled with death and travesty, crumbling underneath the crippling weight of the Mad Sky's tyranny. He sought to reason with the Mad Sky, who only ended up cursing him and banishing him from the world. Filled with wrathful revolution, he gave to Magu'yawan the instructions of creating powerful essences of pure, coruscating power -- he tasked Magu’yawan to collect the God-Shards of the Primordials: the Furious Rebellious Shard of Kalibutan, the Glorious Warrior Spirit of Adlaw, the Reaping Shadow Specter of Bulan, and the Burning Thousand Points of Suga.
