A Candidate Being Overqualified is a Legitimate Concern

A fundamental principle of humanity—innate freedom—is that everyone has a right to pursue their own self-interests, which inherently lends itself to liberal democracy and capitalism. In other words, you and I are free, within the boundaries of laws established by politicians who were voted in because voters believed they’d best serve their self-interests to make life choices we… Read More »

Uncensored?

 Nonstop slugfest that spells victory of one:  I must admit that Arjo Atayde looks so tisoy and guapo whose attractive looks  will least define him as an incredible hunk that could wipe out all his enemies in raw fisticuff violence.  But that glam idea all disappeared when I saw him engage in the bloody encounters he had in… Read More »

Kakayahan o Kayabangan ba?

Ni Edwin Esteba Lahat naman tayo ay nag umpisa sa wala Iniisip nga natin noon paano sa hirap makawala? Ngunit dahil sa kakayanan natin ay may nagtiwala Lahat nang ito ay ating nagawa Mahirap ang mag umpisa ng walang wala Sa harap ng iba mukha kang kawawa Karamihan sa kanila pilit kang hinahatak pababa Hindi matanggap umangat ang… Read More »

Toronto Coffee Culture is Unique

Our Toronto’s coffee culture is unique. We deeply love this beverage and savour it at any place and time of the day.  Most of us cherish the ritual of starting our day with a steaming cup of coffee and contemplating the day ahead.

Look Up, Young Man!

“All of my life I have wondered about the possibility of life elsewhere. What would it be like? Of what would it be made?”—Carl Sagan. Science never played a prominent role in my upbringing and educational progress, especially astronomy. When I looked up at the sky, what knowledge I had was informed by my Catholic faith. Religion taught… Read More »

THE ENIGMA THAT IS NAIA

No, it’s not the latest Karaoke tune to grace the Philippine airwaves, but in Metro Manila, you never know. Slogans and catchphrases are Filipino specialties. Why “There is More Fun in the Philippines” has not caught up with “Amazing Thailand” could be a big blow to our ego. My generic friend Freddie sees it simply lacking a catchy… Read More »

Fear of Dentist

Fear of seeing a dentist is common to all people.  Back then, when dentists used those huge and intimidating instruments—big syringes with long needles—and the earsplitting sound of tooth drills—this so-called Dentophobia was understandable in one way or another. The funny thing is that one morning, while I was having breakfast, I sensed something hard in my mouth;… Read More »

Crypto: The Future of Giving

Cryptocurrency, a digital form of currency or asset, operates on a decentralized network of numerous computers. Like traditional money, cryptocurrency serves as a medium of exchange for goods and services, with each transaction recorded in an online ledger using blockchain technology.

Social Media Wants Your Money

The American way (read: capitalism’s primary goal), which greatly influences the Canadian way, has always been about separating you from your money. I’d wager that within moments of the Internet becoming available to the public on April 30, 1993, many asked themselves, “How can I use this new medium to hawk stuff?” In 1997, SixDegrees launched the first online social… Read More »

Utak talangka

ni Edwin Anyayahan Esteba Hindi maaalis sa ating mga pilipino Ang mainggit sa kapwa nito Sa halip kasi na magtulungan tayo Bakit kailangan hatakin mo pababa ito? Kung ang isang tao ay may nagagawang mabuti Matuwa ka kapag siya ay pinupuri Huwag siyang sisiraan na parang nakapandidiri Ginagawa niyang mabuti para sa nakakarami Kung ikaw ay walang maitutulong… Read More »
