MAGDALO

           The MAGDALO is a national movement that advocates good governance and social justice. Its vision is to have a peaceful, progressive and prosperous country with a united Filipino citizenry.

The MAGDALO was founded by a group of reformist officers and men of the Armed Forces of the Philippines who upheld their Constitutional mandate as the protector of the people and the state, and bravely fought the corrupt and oppressive Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo regime. The group's members were eventually incarcerated for their convictions. Still, after several years in detention, they remain steadfast in their belief that the Filipino people deserve a better government.

Today, the MAGDALO symbolizes courage in the face of adversity; honesty and integrity in public service; and high sense of patriotism and nationalism.

The MAGDALO believes that the only way towards achieving its vision is to have a united, responsible & empowered citizenry. The group has then decided to open its doors to all people from all walks of life who share the same dreams and aspirations for our Country; thus, the SAMAHANG MAGDALO was born.

SAMAHANG MAGDALO

 Filipino socio-civic, non-stock, non-profit organization registered with the PhilippineSecurities and Exchange Commission with Company Registration No. CN201014489 and Company TIN 007-869-045. It was signed at Mandaluyong City, Metro Manila, Philippines on the 9^th day of September 2010 by Benito A. Cataran, Director, Company Registration and Monitoring Department of SEC which works for the empowerment of the Filipinos through the proper exercise of their rights and the exercise of sustained vigilance against graft and corruption in government.

Former Marine Captain Gary Cajolo Alejano, who hails from Sipalay, Negros Occidental as its National President.

Prior to its registration with SEC, it is already a functional organization. The organization is otherwise known as the New Katipunan, having taken inspiration from the struggle of the Philippine Revolutionary leader Andres Bonifacio. In 2010, Samahang Magdalo, metamorphosed into a full socio civic entity with programs and activities based on pure initiatives. This means, chapters are pulling strings if only to fund a still baby-apron organization vying for a space in mainstream society. On the first national convention ever conducted, the Samahang Magdalo was able to identify the top three performing chapters.

ABOUT THE ORGANIZATION

It is primordial concern of the organization to create a chapter which has a strong adherence to the quality of its members rather its quantity. This is the reason why it adopts a one chapter policy in a given geographical area prior to a full recognition.

The Samahang Magdalo does not allow corruption to thrive in its organization. It will not also allow other entities to use it for ends other than the one prescribe by its oath of conduct.

OATH OF THE NEW KATIPUNEROS

·         I am willing to lay down my life in the pursuit of the Vision

·         I will be loyal always to the National Interest

·       I am willing to be a catalyst of change of an oppressive and unjust society into one that advocates equality and social justice

·         I will respect human rights

·         I will not commit any acts of corruption

·         I will live a modest life commensurate to my legal means.

·         I am willing to be punished should I betray any decree of this oath

    I am doing this supreme act of sacrifice for God, Country and People with no promise of reward, compensation or recognition.

The Samahang Magdalo has dedicated itself to abide by its oath as a New Katipunero. Among those that it vows to do is not committing any acts of corruption. The pledge of not committing any acts of corruption follows with it an implied obligation of fighting corruption itself. In order not to be corrupted, it is incumbent that we cleansed our surroundings with the corrupt so as to avoid its negative influence. In essence this is the quest for social justice and Samahang Magdalo is the crusader.

MISSION

The Magdalo mission is to create a culture of selfless service among members by advocating social justice, vigilance on crime and corruption, environmental protection and social awareness; and to instill an attitude of self reliance and cooperatives that shall influence the Filipino society.

VISION

The Magdalo vision is to have a nation of peace, progress and prosperity with social justice thru a united, responsible and empowered citizenry.

Patriotism – Fervent love of the motherland

Idealism – Belief and pursuit of a better life for every Filipino

Altruism – Devotion of selfless service to the welfare of our people.

            Honor – Personal Integrity

            Industry – Self reliance and cooperation

            Loyalty – Oath of loyal service to country and people

MAGDALO COLORS

            The Magdalo Flag is the Red Bonifacio flag with a radiant sun that has 16 rays and alabata “K” inscription. The white radiant sun signifies a new dawn for the motherland. The 16 rays represents the 16 regions of the Philippines. Embedded inside the radiant sun is the alabata “K” to represent the New Katipunan. It is color red to signify the oath of the New Katipuneros signed in blood.

ROMANCE SCAM

Hello and welcome to my site. I would like to share an article which known in the internet community as Romance Scam.

Romance scam is social engineering which is defined as the clever manipulation of the human tendency to trust. Also define as a confidence trick involving a foreigner which has a romantic intentions towards the victim, gaining their affection, and then using that goodwill to commit fraud. These fraudulent acts may involves access to the victims' money, bank accounts, credit cards if there's any, passport, e-mail accounts, and/or national identification numbers or by getting the victims to commit financial fraud on their behalf. 

 Scammers post profiles, usually on some dating websites, using some stolen pictures of attractive men, asking women to contact them. Upon finding their victims, scammers will ask them to be more private in terms of communication such as providing an e-mail address for the fraud to occur. Letters will then be exchanged between the scammer and the victim until the scammer feels they have groomed the victim enough to ask for money. It might be some requests for medical expenses, education expenses especially for the kids, etc. This is usually the period of time where a scammer promise to be with the victim in her country. 

The scammer usually ends when the victim realizes they are being scammed and/or stops sending money. Victims can be highly traumatized by this and are often very ashamed when they know that they had been a victim of this kind of scam and that the romance the foreigner had promise is fake. 

This is some tricks that a scammer does upon working on with his victim: 

* The scammer will ask the victim is she wants to meet, and when the victim says yes, he will told the victim he will send a package with some boxes of chocolates, a laptop of any brand with a laptop bag, an ipad or an iphone, a document, a set of gold rings, a set of wristwatches and etc. 

* The scammer will tell the victim that he enclose beneath the laptop $100 so that the victim can do whatever she likes to do. And also tells the victim that he also included his ATM with a whooping $25000 inside and that she should find a condo or any place to buy using the money, but, the ATM will only be use if the victim would message the scammer after she receive the package.

To all the women who were trying their luck on the internet dating website, be very observant. Beware!

The Simplest Way In Becoming A Computer Technician.

WANT TO BE A COMPUTER TECHNICIAN?

HERE ARE SOME TIPS IN BECOMING ONE.

Getting your first job as an entry level computer technician could be very difficult. This is the reality especially for someone who has no experience in troubleshooting some pcs. The job markets for computer technicians were very crowded and there are several individuals trying to get in. Before you decide to market yourself, you need to gain an edge.

Learn Where To Find Answers

Being a good technician doesn't mean knowing all the answers of any computer problems but it does also mean knowing where to find them. Search engine like that of Google is your key to success in troubleshooting some computer problems. Putting some quotes around a specific error message and searching for it will usually lead you to several helpful articles to fix it.

Assembling A Computer

          If you wanted to be a computer technician then you may need to learn how to build a computer from the bottom up. Even if you don’t have enough money, you may put together any spare parts you may find. You have to fire it up or be able to boot it up and install any operating system that you might think be more friendly to you (Windows, Linux). You will be doing some of this things when you finally become a tech.

Breaking A Computer

           Not physically though, but feel free to destroy your Windows installation and then attempt to repair it. I learn a lot when I do experience troubleshooting problems and so will you. Just make sure that you have your disk (Windows Installation Disks, Recovery Disks) and a good backup first.

Go To School

          Some techs don’t mind being at home since being a technician is not always about being in school but I do learn it first hand in school. Even if you don’t want to go into any four year program, at least, it might be of help in enrolling in any tech school.   Most offer two year programs and have lots of hands on experience.

Working Free of Charge

         Yeah right, work for them free of charge. You may have to volunteer whenever there is an opportunity available whether it would be in school or at your friends’ house. Not only will you need those experiences, but you also need something to put on your resume and you’ll never know, one of these opportunities could eventually turn into a real job.

Study

       On your free time, feel free to study. You may read tech books, tech blogs, search about computer problems with answers how to really troubleshoot them, and anything else you can get your hands on. Study some computer acronyms and know what they mean.

Accept Any Offer

         Apply for every entry level tech job that you may find. And if you’d able to get that offer, take it. It is very competitive and at this point you just need to get your foot in the door.  After you gain some experience, you can always move on to something better.

Following these tips doesn't guarantee you a job, but they are sure help to everyone who might wanted to be a computer technician.

If you are already a technician, please feel free to add your own tips.

TIPS IN BUILDING BLOG REPUTATION ONLINE

SEVERAL TIPS IN BUILDING YOUR ONLINE BLOGGING REPUTATION

Blogging is no longer limited to people who do blogging and share their personal stories and experiences online. Publishing a blog could also mean a serious income especially for those who are looking to make profits out of making websites or blogs through free web hosting sites like BlogSpot, Blogger, Freewebs and Weebly.com

Blogging is not enough if you want to establish your name as a blogger. In fact today, if you're dealing with some financial topics, you want to make sure that you maintain the online reputation of your blogs.

Why Keep A Good Reputation?

There are several reasons why you need to maintain a positive reputation in the internet mainstream. Your reason solely for blogging is to have more traffic directed into your site and must gain positive feed backs from the reading populace. Receiving bad comments is not going to work for you and could affect your blogging reputation.

Aside from the traffic that you want to generate, as for me, I trade my name, and since my name was attached to my blog, anything that's being said against me, would reflect my writings. This is the other reason why a blog owner hide their names on their blogs. 

Blogs are known these days to the public as an avenue for companies, who want to showcase what they have. Companies hire bloggers to have a thorough review of their products and giving a positive overall opinion despite of some criticisms within the copy

BUILDING YOUR BLOG'S ONLINE REPUTATION

Through:

            1. SOCIAL MEDIA - Having a lot of friends, followers, and fans on social media would increase the possibilities of having new readers on your blogs through your network that is associated with your friends'. Other than the traffic that you could generate when you share your blog contents on social media sites, this can also gauge the popularity of it. Putting an idea, behavior or styles, can also get people more interested about your blog especially when you answer some inquiries from your fans and followers, like on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn or in any other social media venue.

             2. Search Engine Optimization - Search Engine Optimization is an organic means of reaching top results pages with the use of keywords and back links. If you are going to write a content that is more than 500 words including photos, videos, and relative keywords; it is easier for that post to be indexed by Google. With two (2) billion internet users mostly using Google as its main search engine, it is a good idea to follow the algorithm and be able to dominate the rankings.

            3. Regularly Updating The Blog - Updating the content of your blog more often could develop regular readers who would visit your blog every now and then. From here, you create a positive outlook on your writing skills not to mention the reputation of your blog.

            4. Writing Contents For Free - There are several bloggers that involved in the financial niche and other related topics that involve making money. Some of them are actually not putting insiders information which could stir the interest of their readers. If you seriously want to have a good online reputation, it is about bringing in a precious information.

            For instance, discussing thoroughly an entry about the ins and outs of trading platforms for investors can actually get your site the popularity you want to have. The approach may differ but the bottom line however is that, it's a matter of knowing and giving the missing information and feeding it to your readers and followers online.
