Bing, a beautiful Filipina fell in love with Edong.

She planned to marry very soon. She was so happy about her wedding plans, she decided to tell her Tatay (dad).

Her Tatay told her, "Bing, you'll have to find another. Your Nanay (mom) does not know this, but Edong is your half-brother" .

So Bing forgot about her Edong, and soon planned to marry Ricardo.

But after telling tatay again, he said, "Bing, anak ko (my child), there's trouble still. You cannot marry Ricardo. Please don't tell your mother, but Ricardo and Edong are your half-brothers. "

Bing had no choice but to go to her Nanay. Nanay already knew and said "Anak ko, do what makes you happy. Marry Ricardo or marry Edong, because you are not related to Tatay."

WHAT A BEAUTIFUL LOVE STORY....

Philippine Cockatoo (Cacatua haematuropygia)

The Philippines is home to some of the world's most exotic birds. Over the years, some 577 species of birds have wandered around the Philippine archipelago. It is believed that 185 of these species can be found only in the Philippines. Sadly, these species are among the most endangered in the world because of deforestation and human threat. The Bird Life International has listed 116 resident species in the Philippines as "threatened" or "near-threatened".

One of these endangered species is the exotic Kalangay or the Philippine cockatoo (Cacatua haematuropygia), a species belonging to Psittacidae or the family of parrots. Cockatoos are treetop, hole-nesting birds which have a mas
sive scimitar-like beak for cracking nuts, digging up roots, or prying grubs from wood. They have a long life span, some living more than 50 years.

Kalangay, also known as the red-vented cockatoo, is a common cage bird capable of mimicking human voice. It has a predominantly white plumage, which produces a distinct contrast against the color of the forest making them easy to locate in the dense foliage. Endemic only to the Philippines, it is the only species in the country that represents the cockatoo group.

An ordinary kalangay measures 33 centimeters in length and weighs 0.29 kilo
gram. Its unique feature is its conspicuous red under-tail coverts. It feeds on the seeds and fruits of wild trees or, in cultivated areas, on rice or corn. Kalangay wanders in small flocks outside of the breeding season, and visits forest edges and nearby plantations for food. The female kalangay normally lays two eggs, which hatch after about 24 days. Emergent trees 30-40 m tall are usually used as nesting sites, and coconut plantations on offshore islands as roosting sites.

The past decades saw the population of kalangays decline by as much as 90 percent. It is one of the three most traded wildlife species together with the talking mynah and blu
e naped parrot, all of which are found only in Palawan. Many hobbyists and collectors keep a kalangay at home because of its ability to mimic sounds as well as its easy adaptability to the presence of humans.

A great number of kalangays were flying in flocks across the Visayas and Mindanao islands 50 years ago. But because of the rapid deterioration of the forests where it lives and the threat posed by hunters and poachers of wild animals, the population of kalangays has diminished to only between 1,000 and 4,000 individuals. This population is now restricted to Palawan, particularly in St. Paul's Subterranean River National Park, Pandanan Island and El Nido Marine Reserve.

Unregulated collection and illegal trade of these prized species remain unchecked. A piece of kalangay is reportedly worth as much as $500 at the Cartimar bird market in Manila. Efforts are being made to save its remaining population in the forests of Palawan, which, sad to say, are also under threat. Kalangay or the Philippine cockatoo is a national treasure because it is found only in the Philippines.

Filipino Billionaires

Fellow countrymen, be proud. While most of us may be poor, with total net worth of a little more than what we wear right now, there are reasons to be proud of. Even though many of us are not privileged enough to own a house, a lot or a car, there is something in Filipinos that we can brag about. Well, we may not be a part of it but other Filipinos, and only a few of them, just give our nation an image of prosperity.

The country’s gross domestic product (GDP) per capita income may be less than US$1,000, but four of over 80 million Filipinos are getting a larger share of the pie. In fact, they are included in Forbes Magazines’ latest list of 497 world billionaires (in US d
ollars). Bravo!

Ironically, Finland and Austria where per capita income is more than US$24,000 has no representative in the billionaires’ circle.

Filipinos in the billionaires' list are Lucio Tan, with a net worth of US$1.7 billion; Henry Sy, US$1.5 billion; George Ty, US$1.1 billion; and Jaime Augusto Zobel de Ayala and family, US$1 billion. Their combined wealth amount to about US$5.3 billion or almost 7 percent of the country’s GDP of US$75.2 billion last year.

The first three billionaires were immigrants from China while Ayala is a scion of an aristocrat Spanish clan.

Tan, 67, owns Asia Brewery, Fortune Tobacco, Philippine Airlines and Philippine National Bank while the 77-year-old Sy manages the
SM shopping malls. Ty, 69, runs Metro Bank, the country’s largest commercial bank while Ayala, 42, heads Ayala Corp., the largest conglomerate in the Philippines.

Other Filipinos who figured in previous billionaires’ lists are John Gokongwei, a property and retail
tycoon; Manuel Villar, a senator who controls the country’s largest housing developer company; Danding Cojuangco, chairman of San Miguel Corp.; the Lopez clan of Meralco and ABS-CBN; and Tan Yu, a property mogul.

Who can accuse the Philippines as a country of poor people. I may be poor, but at least four Filipinos are not. And I am proud of this fact. Are you?

Of course, everyone of us wants to earn money in easy way. But what if,
1. you tried it co'z there's nothing to lose and nothing to risk for
2. task is very easy to do and promised you big bucks (but takes forever to earn big)
3. you enjoy what your doin' -- which is very important

YET, found out later that you will not receive your pay either because they don't support your country or they dont send money here in the phillippines at all... THAT'S A TOTAL WASTE OF TIME.

Why not try YUWIE -- it works like FRIENDSTER (if u are familiar with it, that's better)

Another way of earning easy money here is referral 1-3 referrals is enough and the rest is up to them (its up to you if you want to refer or not -- nobody's forcing you).

Want some more...those are just some ways to earn money in YUWIE...for more info just click THIS!
