ASEANで新世界へ、フィリピンが後押し海外進出の架け橋に [#cbajp]

cloudnewsj — Sun, 03 Mar 2013 23:45:32 +0000

クリスマス休暇が明けて間もない2013年1月6日。フィリピンの全国紙「MANILA BULLETIN」に、ある日系企業の設立記念式典の記事が載った（写真1）。ポータルサイト運営のエキサイトが新設した初の海外子会社、エキサイトメディアサービスPHだ。PHPが得意なフィリピンの技術者を4人集め、2012年12月に営業を開始した。エキサイトは「翻訳」や「占い」といったサービスをポータルサイト「エキサイト」で展開している。同社の収益を支えるこれらWebサービス向けのプログラミングや単体テストなどを、エキサイトメディアサービスPHが担う。

“You can be the most beautiful person in the world and everybody sees light and rainbows when they look at you, but if you yourself don't know it, all of that doesn't even matter. Every second that you spend on doubting your worth, every moment that you use to criticize yourself; is a second of your life wasted, is a moment of your life thrown away. It's not like you have forever, so don't waste any of your seconds, don't throw even one of your moments away.” (C. JoyBell C.)

MY REPLY TO UNTRUE:

F*CK OFF! I’m not that true friend. If you want to sit in the dark, I will give you a razor to cut yourself. If you want to be light take my hand. I am that true friend.

We all struggle. I wake up every single day with the momentum of a Mac truck because I want to WIN!!!!!!!!! I understand that life is hard; my life is hard. How does it make you feel??

I feel invigorated by the challenge, by the puzzle of knowing that the pieces of my success are all out there. I imagine God scattered them on purpose, so that I could spend my life hunting for treasure. Our wealth is man made. We give things value by our opinions, and also our resources, the most precious being time. I do not have time for darkness though I appreciate moments in the shadows. My life is my abundant wealth; why would I ever have good reason for despair when I have everything I need by my breath. My asthma is not a curse, it is reminder to not take what I have for granted. Most people never think about breathing. I do….

I think about my death quite often, realizing that my life is only limited if I see an end in it. Some see my choice to share every detail of my life (if I only had the time for that) as CRAZY. I do not understand why anyone would want to live a life not remembered. My body will turn to dust and my children will only remember that which I allowed them. How many of you know your parents? How many of you know what they went through in raising you? What secrets do they hide and how did they change you?

I have been hungry and cold. I have been homeless and beaten. I have been abandoned and imprisoned. I have been molested and betrayed. I have been broken hearted….

and still, through all of that, I find a reason to smile. I am my bliss, and I appreciate my circumstance, even the pain of it. I am so fortunate to be alive to feel!!

THE LIFE YOU LIVE IS A CHOICE

My advice for the day…. WRITE YOUR SUCCESS STORY!!!!!!! If you are in a dark place, sit down and write what you want for yourself. Knowing YOUR HAPPY is the first place to find light. I am getting off this freaking computer and taking my ass to the GYM! My happy is there. It’s hard to see in the dark.

Exciting News!

lmichelephotography — Wed, 27 Feb 2013 23:53:40 +0000

I have some exciting news!!! I am working on a new series for my Creative Concepts class. I don

Another slow day.

firemaster1 — Wed, 27 Feb 2013 02:19:48 +0000

Now to me there has been nothing interesting going on, so I am kind of going outside the box for this one.

Also dedicated to those who like mystery. Now I have heard some people ask about abilities, so I am going to try to talk about that subject somewhat on the post.

Now some people think about abilities like walking, running, jogging and the like, and we are not going there instead we are going to the other side. Like reading tarot cards the paranormal abilities.

Some psychic do use tarot cards, while others use their instincts and while their others that see and hear and they use it. The third one seems to be the more classic variety. Now I do not have anything against them, all though it seems interesting.

Everyone is born with abilities all though as we go through school, the system is trained for some reason to teach us not to use the abilities.

Case in point, I know most children when they are born say they have an invisable or pretend friend, I am sure most of us has encountered these type of situations when we were around newborn to maybe 2 or 3 years old, right?

Actually what is happening here is during this time since we are so new to this world and maybe quite old to the other world, we can actually see both, recognise both, the whole bit.

What has happened with people who are psychic in my view is they have never left that state, meaning what happens when they are young happens now.

Now once you find your possiablites of abilities, what this means is you have found some things that most people may not excell at and your doing a little better than most, what you need to do is practice them all the time as you never know when or where it may become handy.

Here is something people may not have thought of, and if your tuned in deep enough to music or tones, the alike includeing yourself. Also this part is dedicated to the wwe fans, and wwe undertaker fans.

In the opening part about the 28 second thru the 32 second of the 3:18 second song, you can start hear words where there is supposed to be music and it repeats at times, what words are they? 5 words

For the time has come. Now if your really in tune you can continue from there and put words after the 5 words. Although from experience when you listen enough sometimes you can feel the words changeing.

This is what I like to call reading between the lines.

One time you might think it is going to be something like

“For The Time has come” the undertakers here. And another one might be For the time has come he is here.

When you can learn to flip words and read between the lines, this could be a sign you have abilities .

Now something else I want to touch on, is something that would to weird to most.

It could be known as energy storms. Know I bet most people don’t know what the heck an energy storms are. I will try to explain it the best I can.

Know there are people who have headaches and they get bigger the worst the storm, this seems to happen with people who are not physically well.

2. Headaches proned

3. sensitive to weather

4. sensitive to weather changes.

So what are energy storms? Energy Storms, are usually sign you are sensitive if you can detect them. Here is what you could expect to feel, if you can detect them?

Here is a small run down

During a storm you physical energy could increase by haveing the storms energy mixed in it.

Also everyone has spirit energy this is the energy we cannot see, for example when you clap your hands, you spend it because of the sound, and vibration. People can here it however cannot see it.

Why do I mention about spirit energy or the energy your higher self uses? That can also increase to.

Here is the thing if you are capable enough both of the type of energy can mix together for a price. What is a price, things like headaches, backaches and illness if you overdue it too much or not use to it.

Once you are, and both mix, the storm energy can add to the pot, or fuel the flames, as some would say. However the price for detecting it is somewhat steep.

After the storm you may experience,

all the energy storm energy you gained from the storm

at least half of the spirit energy

at least half of your physical energy

combine and leave you all at once

so you might feel as an old saying goes your giddy up and go just got up and went.

Bad news is once you start detecting this unlike a light switch their seems to be no way to stop it.

This is some I have experienced myself.

[Interview|Photos|Trans] CNBLUE Excite Interview - What are you into now?

fizzyhasan — Thu, 21 Feb 2013 19:39:20 +0000

What are you into now?

Lee Jong Hyun (Guitar&Vocal): Practice of performance, Snowboard

Lately we have some concerts, so I practice performance. We just ended concerts in Korea, and we are going to hold release event (in Japan) (as of 23 December 2012). We are preparing to unveil new songs live, too. As for my private time, I’m into snowboard now. I didn’t like it very much. I just started and don’t know well yet, though… Now it is a hobby of all of us members. I want to become skilled soon, so I want to go buy a good set (of tools).

Kang Min Hyuk (Drums): Snowboard, Drum pad

I guess all of us are the same because we live together, but I’m into snowboard now. YongHwa-oniisan has done snowboard for a long time, and he’s great at it. Because he taught us, I came to like it. In 2012, we went snowboarding on 1 January all together, but we have never been there since that time. Other than that, I’m learning drum pad that I used at BLUE NIGHT concert in Korea. Although I practice, it’s difficult… I have already learned how to use the instrument, but I’m not sure where I should use it in songs… It is difficult.

Jung Yong Hwa (Guitar&Vocal): Anime “The Simpsons”, Drama “The Walking Dead”

Although I have liked animation “The Simpsons” for a long time, but it is still aired now. I found it by chance and started watching, and now I’m into it again. One story per broadcast. The story is so unique and I can hardly understand. I found it funny because of that. Also, I’m fond of zombie drama “The Walking Dead”. It is higher quality than zombie movies and very funny. Since MinHyuk recommended it to me, I started watching.

Coupons can you use more than one coupon at a time?

firemaster1 — Sun, 17 Feb 2013 22:06:13 +0000

In some cases you can, use more than 1 coupon on the same item, although I am sure there are many ways to save, and no I have not yet got into extreme couponing yet, Lol here is one idea for you that could help.

let us say we start with a 5 dollar item, and during the week we go to the store it is all ready on sale for 4 dollars when you use a customer shoppers card, that is coupon number 1, why? Because most discounts like this are noted on the reciepts seem to be noted as coupon or something to that effect.

Next we go online to the manufactor and find a coupon good for a dollar, so we load it onto a card, now the total from 2 coupons, both loaded on the card one from store and one from manufacter, brings our total from 5 dollars to 3 dollars saving 40 percent so far on one item not bad.

We are not done yet. Lets say we find another coupon from coupons.com for the same item for a dollar so we use it, now it makes it from 5 dollars, to 2 dollars now we have a 80 percent savings, really great deal. Now lets say you look in a news paper and whats this? a coupon for the same product for another dollar.

Now we are at a store that has double coupons up to $1.00 and we have a coupon for a dollar from the news paper. Our total for our five dollar item has all ready been reduced to two dollars, so should we stop here? Absolutely not. We instead press on, and present coupon from said paper, for a dollar and letting them double it to make it worth two dollars. So what does this means to us?

Simple after the two coupons/ reductions on the card the internet coupon and the coupon from the newspaper plus doubling the newspaper coupon we have now taken an item worth $5.00 and we ended up paying only $0.00 a massive 100% savings. That is a savings no one could beat mathmatically.

What could be a major blow for storage wars fans

firemaster1 — Sun, 17 Feb 2013 15:40:53 +0000

From what i could find out, a major blow to storage wars fans, and frans may be happening, as Hester has appearently been fired, and bileio commited suicide so people are probably asking hey is regular storage wars coming back? Not sure, although after a while there was a post in facebook that asked a weird question, which was something to the effect of would you want more yuuup in season 4?

What does this sound like? to me maybe they are considering since supposedly bileio was to take over hester and killed himself, that there might be a shot of let bygones be bygones and let hester back into storage wars for season 4. Although some of the more recent stuff I have found support the following idea.

storage wars new york has been cancelled
and
storage wars has been taken out meaning there gone,
and
storage wars texas is supposed to take place of

storage wars and storage wars new york.

Weather this is true or not only time will tell.

Excitement Builds...

Jason Buckley — Sat, 16 Feb 2013 18:27:41 +0000

Enthusiasm is excitement with inspiration, motivation, and a pinch of creativity.” ~Bo Bennett

I am so looking forward to this coming week…

NOW, I am SO EXCITED about this coming week!

It will be a quick 7 days, and I have some much to get accomplished, yet the out come will be outstanding!

Things I need to accomplish before the big finale. I need to do laundry! Man I have been putting that off! I will continue to ride my bike every other day! I am sure it is helping me, but I don’t have a scale, so who knows.

I have to put many hours into my business plan. There is still so much to do, and I feel that I am already starting to fall behind on that goal. This will be the week for making up some production on that.

I will fire up the grill again, at least once! Maybe twice! I might even light a fire under my rear, and fire up the smoker! That may be good, as I will need to stay home all day, which might even help me with sitting down and working on the business plan, while having the french doors open with the smell of real BBQ coming through the screen!

Then on to the weekend. This will be the exciting part!

Saturday is my grandfathers 90th birthday party! I will get to see family that I have not seen in close to a decade, and just have a relaxing good time!

After the party, come home and pack!!! This is the most excitement! I have waited and anticipated for February 24th for a while now!

Sunday morning, February 24th, my ride is picking me up at 5am and taking me to the airport, to meet the group of about 80-100 strangers. We will be getting on the bus and going to a ranch in Lake County, CA for the advanced seminar PSI-7! I am so excited, and open to the many things that I will learn about myself and my life! This will help me become a better person professionally and personally.

I am ecstatic about this opportunity, and can not wait to be able to share with you some of the things that I experience, and how much my outlook of life is changing for the better!

Before I sign off, I do want to share a bit of excitement from a friend of mine this week! One of my best friends Jamie bought her first house! I am so excited for you Jamie, and I hope that this experience will provide you with many years great memories and enjoyment! I am proud of you!

What have been some of your recent or upcoming things that have made you excited? Post a response and let everyone know! I sure would like to share in your excitement with you!!!

Have a wonderful day, and thanks for reading!

Flipped Lecture - Search

s3400914 — Tue, 12 Feb 2013 12:37:27 +0000

Imagine a world without…

Ten years ago there was no Google.

What use was the World Wide Web if there was no way of navigating it?

The roots of search can be found at Stanford University. Students Jerry Yang and David Filo had an idea that would make them millions. Their company name became Yahoo. They accessed the web looking for sports information to help their fantasy basketball teams. Yang and Filo spent hours looking at as many websites as possible, deciding how to categorize them. Their idea had enormous potential however they needed a way of funding it. Many were sceptical about investing in their idea as there were only two people behind it and the business model was hazy. No one had yet figured out to make money on the Internet. In the mid nineties people saw the internet as a new type of medium that could be supported by advertising. Filo and Yang had to find a way for Yahoo to make money but were reluctant to use advertising as they feared it might generate backlash and cynicism. They had no other choice despite being concerned about alienating users. In late 1995 Yahoo began taking ads. This did not work against them and to their surprise their users began multiplying. More users meant more advertisements. For the first time Yahoo had shown it was possible to use the web to make money.

The web boom had begun!

By 1996 Yang and Filo faced challenges with rivals, particularly Excite. Its orgins were very similar to that of Yahoo however they provided a more sophisticated search engine. When typing your query into Excite, it trawled the web look for sites containing the term you’d entered. When they first launched, Excite was coming last in the search engine race. They knew one year from then they were either going to be a success or a failure. They were ferocious competitors. By 1997 the internet was exploding. The search engine compaines stopped caring about search and became more concerned with advertising and making money.

When it came to locating relevant info on the web the search compaines began to disappoint. Links would often lead people to sites trying to sell them something. However two more geniuses form Stanford University emerged. Serge Brin and Larry Page had the insight to launch Google. They saw that the web was running a continuous popularity contest on its own content so they used this to their advantage:

“In Essence Google inteprets a link from page A to page B as a vote by page A for page B, Google assess a pages importance by the votes it receives. ” -Page and Brin

Page and Brin found the most relevant sites by counting the links. This method would be the core of Google’s success. When Brin and Page launched Google onto the Stanford website it was an instant hit. Excite wanted to buy Google to vanquish Yahoo as a competitor but didn’t think they’d make much money from search. Google was after a modest amount of money but couldn’t find any takers. They were desperate but no one saw that they were onto something big.

Page and Brin eventually ended up on venture capitalists John Doerrs doorstep. Despite being very ambitious, Doerrs wrote them a check for twelve million dollars. Google became fast, simplistic and easy to navigate with no advertisements. Page and Brin were determined to keep google free of advertisments and clutter. However they were in need of consistent funds.

A search engine could be the world’s most efficient market reaearch tool. Keywords became the future of the business. They revealed a lot about the user and what they might be interested in buying. The big idea was that search could be like the yellow pages. Google took this idea from Bill Gross and used it to their advantage. Google tweaked this original idea and made billions of dollars worth of profits by incorporating advertisements into their search results subtly. The sponsored links on the right hand side of the search result page was like advertisements in disguise.

Google became a household name and was raking in as much as 3 billion dollars a year. Brin and Page became ranked as two of the top 30 richest people in the world. Google became the fast growing company in the world. Google thrives on the subtle pairing of search and advertising.

Google prides itself on its longstanding motto ..

“don’t be evil”

Stoke, Snow and Statues

Becky Leighton — Mon, 11 Feb 2013 17:33:41 +0000

I thought it was high time for a bit of an update on life here and now. So far, since arriving at what I’ve started to call home in tiny (no, seriously, this place is an ant) Stamford I’ve travelled not so far and not so wide to the University town of Cambridge. The snow was absolutely crazy that day – it made it slightly difficult to see anything, really. On the upside, my roomie grabbed the opportunity to get herself a lovely iPhone while there, so; good for her! We’ve made it a future mission to go back and actually see it this time without fearfully cowering from the snow.

We’ve also braved Birmingham in all of its, erm… glory… Actually no, Birmies (where I went, at least) was really quite cool, it had some really brilliant architecture and statues of people who are probably dead. We went to a conference in a stunning hotel where they have cool taps in the bathrooms and stuff. I’d even go so far as to say that they have chocolate-on-pillows-in-the-morning-putters. What? It’s a real job! Be sensitive! Imagine that was your job title and someone was laughing at you! Wouldn’t be so funny anymore, would it? Yeah, that’s what I thought.

Soon, I shall be telling of my epic tales in the lovely London! It’s going to be incredible. I’m well stoked.

I’d have to say as much as Cape Town is my home; England’s already starting to hold a place in my heart.

My Childhood Days...

pimminag — Mon, 11 Feb 2013 05:01:20 +0000

My Childhood Days…

Always wanted to go for a walk,
With my grandpa…
He would make sure,
To take tiny steps as mine…
We would chase squirrels and,
Butterflies resting on the flowers…
While collecting all colorful fallen leaves,
He would ask me to stay away from the bees…
Visiting the barn would excite me,
To feed the cows and chicks was fun for me…
He taught me to make paper boats,
That would sail while we go in a rowing boat…
Childhood went pass by so quick like the flowing river,
Sitting on the porch I remember how we drenched in rain and giggle…

Kristi C.A.R.E.S.

Kristi Beres — Sat, 09 Feb 2013 13:29:50 +0000

As a Distinguished Toastmaster (DTM) and Division E Governor I have been reflecting on my leadership philosophy.

After a Toastmasters meeting last night, Helen told me, “I like and support you because Kristi you care!”

What Helen didn’t realize was the acronym C.A.R.E.S encapulates my leadership philosophy.

C Confidence and Contributions

A leader has confidence in their own beliefs and values contributions of others in smaller projects to help the team achieve greater goals.

A Ask and Analyze

A leader asks the member or client what their needs are what their club’s needs and analyzes what their needs are.

R Respect and Retention

A leader respects the members’ needs to retain their support.

E Energizes and Excites

A leader energizes and excites members to take action.

S Serves and Strives

A leader serves the members and strives to meet their needs.

C.A.R.E.S. embraces members’ needs to achieve greater goals!

Winter storm

firemaster1 — Fri, 08 Feb 2013 03:31:20 +0000

Ok the east coast I know your going not again, right? And just as the south is getting the hammer from mother nature with highwinds and tornados, it seems we all have more than we can handle.

Here is the deal we have about 4 months or so before we get to complain about a new problem, a heat wave or so it seems. Although we have a little over 30 days before we get to complain about spring storms, and a little over 2 seasons left before we can complain about spending money on chiropratic care, and wait for it…

a little over 3 seasons before we get to complain about the problem we have now. So if you like to complain, about something new and not the same old thing with the weather, hold on a little longer because soon we will get to complain about something new.

The First of Many...

Sooooo I applied to be a writer for another blog and got accepted! Here is my first post (pending it’s approval) at Another Castle. Please let me know what you guys think~ I’m super excited for this wonderful opportunity!!! Ah!

_______________________________________________________________________

Are you going to your first anime convention? Have you gone to an anime convention and felt so overwhelmed that you didn’t know what to do? Don’t worry, we’ve all been there and we’ve all forgotten important con survival tactics. Having been to several cons, my husband and I have come up with a list of what to bring to and how to prepare for cons.

: Stepping on safety pins is not a fun time.

Let’s start with what to pack.

Cons close to home:

Toiletries. This is by far the #1 thing to remember when you pack for cons. If you are staying in a hotel, they will offer you some toiletries but you always risk that chance of having to share with someone else in the room. Gross. While that is gross, con-funk is even more disgusting. For those of you who don’t know what con-funk is, please scroll down to At The Con Survival Tips for more information.
Energy Drinks. All of the cons I’ve been to have been 24 hour cons and if you’re 18+ you’re not going to want to miss any of the panels!
Money. The dealers room. Oh my god the dealers room. And artist’s alley! So. Many. Kawaii. Things. You will want ALL THE THINGS so it’s best if you have money to pay to help ease the kawaii-overload
Bobby pins, safety pins, thread, super glue (or a hot glue gun), pantyhose, scissors and ace bandage. If you’re a cosplayer, it is important to be prepared for any little incident that could occur. Safety pins are always a quick way to fix something (especially if you’re in a photo shoot) and pantyhose is nice to use if you forget a wig cap. Ace bandage can be used to flatten areas that need to be flattened for your cosplay. Example: I once cosplayed Matt from Digimon and if I didn’t have ace bandage, everyone would have been able to tell I was a chick.

: Check out that farmer’s tan!

Pain killers. Something simple like Tylenol will work because cons are LOUD. With all of the screaming, cheering, music and people running down the hallways singing the Pokemon Theme Song you are going to need something in case of a headache.
Camera. Preferably not a camera that’s on your phone because the quality isn’t the greatest on phone cameras. You’re going to see some awesome cosplay and you’re going to want to take pictures of them.
Real Food. Consuite food is just for snacking!
Stuff to be signed. Trading cards, anime DVDs/Blu-rays, wall scrolls…voice actors will sign almost anything for you!
Cosplay. If you’re a cosplayer, don’t forget your cosplay!

For a Con away from home:

Awesome playlist for the road. We like to start off with “On The Road to Viridian City” from the Pokemon the First Movie Soundtrack.
Stuff to keep you entertained. We drive the 8-9 hour drive to Coralville, Iowa for Anime Iowa annually and when counting cows is the best form of entertainment…you’re in for a long drive.
Snacks. Driving+snacking+???=Profit
Comfy clothes. Traveling in clothes that aren’t comfortable is never fun. You don’t need to be fashionable when traveling.
Water/caffeinated beverages. Stay hydrated!
“Emergency Money”. It’s always good to save some money if you’re traveling in case of emergencies. Getting a flat tire and not having any money after a con is never a good time.

At the Con:

Get your badge! You can’t do anything without your badge!
Check into the hotel (if you’re traveling). Do this AFTER you get your badge. The line to check into the hotel will go down, the badge line won’t.
Grab a schedule. This will become your best friend.
Check your smartphone for an app for the con. Anime Nebraskon and Anime Detour have all had apps available to help you organize your schedule. It was the greatest thing ever.
Locate the Consuite. This is our place to meet if our group gets separated and it’s also the place full of free food and water/pop. Depending on which con you go to they will offer different things for con-goers. I’ve only gone to one con that didn’t have a consuite available for everyone, but they did have one for volunteers.
Hit up the Dealers room right when it opens. It’s best to look around and pick up the things that you know will be gone by the end of the con. If you plan on staying for the whole con, a lot of dealers will put their stuff on sale on the final day so if you can wait and see if you can get an item cheaper, I would do that.

Hit up the Artists Alley. Get the good stuff before it’s gone!
Shower. Please, please, please shower. A lot of people go the whole weekend without showering and by the end of the weekend the hotel smells funky. That smell is what is called “con-funk” and it is disgusting.

Another very important thing to remember while at a con is this: keep an open mind. For a lot of people who attend an anime convention, this is one of the few places where they truly feel comfortable with themselves. Everyone is there to have fun, nerd out and make new friends so don’t be a jerk and make someone feel bad about what they like.

sure did not to long ago I received another check in the mail. Now a lot of people say these things do not pay. However when you have made a few hundred dollars off of several ones when you add up the totals, then that tune could change.

The ones I use are free signup and no charges, no credit cards nothing.

Now some of them will have sweepstakes, if you attempt a survey and get screened out which simply means you for what ever reason does not pass the qualification round of the survey. Some will offer points you can trade in for prizes, giftcards online or offline, sweepstakes, and some will give amazon or even paypal.

Later on I will start putting out posts that has signup links to some or maybe all the sites I belong to. So you can get started.

However if you are looking for a get rich quick move this is not really going to make you rich quick of course, unless your lucky enough to win something like a quarter sweepstakes, which i have not yet.

So far sweep wise

my collection includes

kindle

amazon g.c.

and a check

hopefully I will win more soon, Lol.

If you have any friends also that have an interest in taking them, let them know where you found the post. And send them my way so they can learn to.

As always I welcome your comments.

And thanks to the people who send me comments and keep them coming.
