Support Pinoy Coconut Geotextile

Let's Support Pinoy Coconut Geotextile - a Finalist in BBC's World Challenge!

Fellow Pinoys,

Did you know that the Philippines' coconut geotextile (a.k.a. coconet) for soil erosion control has been chosen as one of the 12 finalists in Newsweek and BBC's (British Broadcasting Corporation) World's World Challenge?

The World Challenge is basically a competition/ search designed at identifying groups or individuals all over the world whose projectshave contributed great impact at grass roots level.

A documentary about Philippine Coconut geotextile or coconet industry will be shown on the BBC World cable channel on September 24 around8:30 GMT and will also be featured in the August 29 special issue of Newsweek.

"The World Challenge" already offers a tremendous exposure and publicity to our flourishing Philippine coconut geotextile industryand to our Philippine coconut fiber exporters. But it would be great pride for our country, which has been getting very bad publicitynowadays, to win this prestigious competition. By making the Coconets win the best project, we will show to the whole world that Filipinos are not only creative but also majority, if not all, of the Filipinos around the globe are very much united.

To vote, please open http://www.theworldchallenge.co.uk/vote.php and click the picture of Philippine coconet.

Please help us campaign for more voters by forwarding this message to your co-worker, friends and relatives.

Thanks!

P.S. One of those involved in the development of coconut fibers is Dr. Bo Arboleda from Albay.

My Hidden Talent

Your Hidden Talent

You are a great communicator. You have a real way with words. You're never at a loss to explain what you mean or how you feel. People find it easy to empathize with you, no matter what your situation. When you're up, you make everyone happy. But when you're down, everyone suffers.

TEST: What Are The Keys To Your Heart?

The Keys to Your Heart

• You are attracted to those who have a split personality - cold as ice on the outside but hot as fire in the heart.
• In love, you feel the most alive when everything is uncertain, one moment heaven... the next moment hell.
• You'd like to your lover to think you are flexible and ready for anything!
• You would be forced to break up with someone who was ruthless, cold-blooded, and sarcastic.
• Your ideal relationship is open. Both of you can talk about everything... no secrets.
• Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment.
• You think of marriage as something precious. You'll treasure marriage and treat it as sacred.
• In this moment, you think of love as commitment. Love only works when both people are totally devoted.

Slumbering Beauty (for Chie)

As you sleep, the shadows
walk across your body -
Protecting your soul

Softly,
daintily.

Brushing emissions of light
Onto your peaceful face.

Your eyelids are the joy
of all that is tepid
adorned with lashes of silk ebony,
resting in perfect unity.

Your lips- like candy coated apples-
Still expose the melody of a smile
that lived in your waking day.

Little angels enlighten your ears
with spiritual guidance.
Attending you patiently
until morning's first breath.
For your repose is contentment
in the eyes of darkened sky.

FROM MY MAILBOX: FBI Test

The FBI had an opening for an assassin. After all the background checks, interviews, and testing were done there were 3 finalists. Two men and a woman.

For the final test, the FBI agents took one of the men to a large metal door and handed him a gun.

"We must know that you will follow your instructions no matter what the circumstances. Inside the room you will find your wife sitting in a chair. Kill Her!"

The man said, "You can't be serious, I could never shoot my wife."

The agent said, "Then you're not the right man for this job. Take your wife and go home."

The second man was given the same instructions. He took the gun and went into the room. All was quiet for about 5 minutes. The man came out with tears in his eyes, "I tried, but I can't kill my wife."

The agent said, "You don't have what it takes. Take your wife and go home."

Finally, it was the woman's turn. She was gi ven the same instructions, to kill her husband. She took the gun and went into the room. Shots were heard, one after another. They heard screaming, crashing, banging on the walls. After a few minutes, all was quiet. The door opened slowly and there stood the woman. She wiped the sweat from her brow.

"This gun is loaded with blanks" she said. "I had to beat him to death with the chair."
