Reasons Why Miriam Defensor-Santiago Was Least Voted For Philippine Presidency

<p><div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: justify;">The Philippine National Election is almost in near finish. 53+ million voters had already casted their votes to elect the new government officials that will serve them for the next three or six years (In case of the president, the vice president, and the 12 senators). So far in the unofficial tallies as of this moment, it is the Mayor of Davao City, Rodrigo Duterte that leads the presidency while the Representative of the Third District of Camarines Sur, Leni Robredo leads the vice presidency with a small margin against Senator Bongbong Marcos.</span></div>

As a voter myself, I also casted my votes on the precint where I am voting, somewhere here in Makati. I voted, of course, Rodrigo Duterte and Bongbong Marcos as my vice president. After I vote, I just spent the day waiting for the election results and the results shown on TV were.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<ol>
<li>Rodrigo Duterte</li>
<li>Mar Roxas</li>
<li>Grace Poe</li>
<li>Jojo Binay</li>
<li>Miriam Defensor-Santiago</li>
<li>Roy Señeres</li>
</ol>
<div>
I am satisfied of the result that was shown on the television but it also made me notice that Miriam Defensor-Santiago is on the second to the last rank. As I researched her <a href="http://miriam.com.ph/aboutmiriam.php" target="_blank">background</a>, on all the presidential candidates, she is the most qualified. Rodrigo Duterte comes second to her. The election result that was shown had made me conclude these reasons on why Miriam was least voted for Philippine Presidency.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<ol>
<li><b>She has the least exposure.</b><br />Yes, indeed she has the least exposure on the campaigns. In my observations from the start of the campaign, I didn't even managed to see a "Miriam for President" TV campaign. Same on the radios. I didn't even managed to hear such campaign. What she did was just show herself on the debates and explain her platform on different issues in our country and also, she appeared as guest speakers of some conferences and some school-related activities. Another thing is that she used the social media and its youth users to campaign for her, thus made her the least (None at all rather) spender on the presidential campaign.</li>
<li><b>She has cancer, she'll die in office.</b><br />This reason was made out by those persons who didn't voted her. She was not voted because she is sick? On all the reasons I listed here, this is the most unreasonable. As I can see on the personality of Miriam, I know she can overcome anything in order to serve the country and cancer is just a little problem for her. Yes, we care for her that's why we didn't voted for her but she cares a lot for the Filipino people that she decided to run for presidency even if her body is infested by cancer.</li>
<li><b>She picked Bongbong Marcos as her tandem for vice president.</b><br />I think everyone (Especially the Martial Law victims) was shocked when she announced that she will go a collaboration with Bongbong Marcos on the campaign going to the Malacañang. I know she had the valid reasons for picking him as her tandem and no one would even attempt to question it to her. Bongbong Marcos was even her student way back, but as we all know, Marcoses (The family itself) had created a very negative hype to the Filipinos because of the Martial Law, the assasination of Ninoy Aquino, as well as the ill-gotten wealth of their family. Knowing that she will have a tandem with a Marcos, it became a large factor that made her the least to be voted in the elections.</li>
<li><b>The Filipino Perfectionist Stereotype</b><br /><b>(This part is my own opinion already)</b> We all know that Miriam is a very intelligent person, No one even managed to go mudslinging with Miriam because of her intelligence. This intelligence she possess is one of the reasons why she is the most qualified to run the Philippines as its president, but this intelligence is also the reason as well why she is the least voted in the elections. Filipinos had stereotyped her as a perfectionist, and will not listen to the Filipino people if they had ideas that are helpful but not perfect. Most of the Filipinos are poor and somehow, want themselves to have a comfortable life under a good-governing president. These Filipinos feel that Miriam deserves to be president but because of stereotyping, they feel that if she wins, she'll just ignore their ideas for a comfortable life because it was not perfect or good after all, and it will not give a win-win result. Miriam is known to decisions that favors both parties a win-win result but with an attitude of Filipinos "that wants to gain the upperhand at all times", I think that made Filipinos stererotype the highly intelligent Miriam.</li>
</ol>
<div>
She had already ran for presidency for three times on different ocassions, She was defeated by Fidel V. Ramos in 1992, by Joseph Estrada in 1998, and this 2016 by Rodrigo Duterte. Because of the results of the past presidential elections she participated in, she was dubbed in social media <i>"The Best Philippine President We Never Had"</i>.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So far, I don't have a credible source if she will retire in politics after this. Somehow, she had long served the Philippines already for so long.</div>

Iyakin ang mga Pilipino

<p>Naniniwala ba kayong bobo ang mga Pinoy? Ako HINDI. Pero naniniwala ako na ang karamihan ng bobong Pilipino ay botante. Ano ba ang depinisyon ng pagunlad sa mga Pinoy? Pag nakakatangap ng Isang kilong bigas kada buwan? Pag may libreng Cake tuwing Birthday nila? May libreng School supplies at sapatos tuwing pasukan? Ang mga bagay na panandalian lang ay hindi pag unlad.<br />
<br />
Yung mga taong sumigaw para iboto ang isang kandidato ay sila din ang sumisigaw para pababain ito sa pwesto. Iyakin ang mga Pilipino, Wala silang ginawa kundi magreklamo. Nagrereklamong wala silang makitang trabaho, pero hindi nakapag tapos dahil mga tamad at gago. Kinukuwento nila sa mga ka inuman sa tanghaling tapat ang mga kupal na pulitikong nagnanakaw pero sila din ang bumuto. Kachismisan ang mga kumare habang nagtatantos sa kard ng bingo. Tapos magtataka sila kung bakit sila naghihirap. bakit nga ba? Kase Bobo ka.<br />

<br />
<br />
Walang alam gawin kundi umiyak, manisi at magreklamo. Ayaw na ayaw nilang masisi sila o aminin wala silang ginagawa. Lahat isisisi sa mga nakapwesto. Bakit sino ba nagsabeng iboto mo? Eh kung hindi mo binoto, Sa tingin mo kung nanalo ang binoto mo, magbabago ang buhay mo habang nakaupo sya ng anim na taon? TANGA. Wag mong sisihin sa Gobyerno kung bakit wala kang makitang trabaho kase ang baba ng grades mo nung college. Tanga, wag mong isisi sa gobyerno kung wala kang makitang trabaho kase Highschool lang ang inabot mo. Ang dame kong kilalang HS graduate na may tabaho kya wag ako. Wag mong iiyak, di mu lang matangap sa sarili mong tamad ka kaya isisi mo sa iba. Ang dameng nakatakas sa kahirapan dahil nagsumikap sila. Hindi sila umunlad ng nagrereklamo sa buhay habang may umiikot na baso sa harapan nila.<br />
<br />
Kahit anung galing pa ng nakaupo kung ganyan ang pilipino, wala ng pagasa ang pilipinas. Sigurado ako. Kahit anung galing pa ng Guro, kung wala naman  balak matuto ang mga studyante nya, walang mangyayare. Tandaan mo ang bobo natuturuan basta gugustuhin nya.<br />
<br />
Kung natamaan ka, malamang iyakin at bobo ka din? BOBO kaba tulad ng iba?</p>

Iyakin ang mga Pilipino

Naniniwala ba kayong bobo ang mga Pinoy? Ako HINDI. Pero naniniwala ako na ang karamihan ng bobong Pilipino ay botante. Ano ba ang depinisyo...

</span>When I say different, tissues of theirs are more
developed and differentiated from each other. In Japan, tissues in toilets are
to be disposed together with flushing! Tissues in toilets easily break down to
reduce trash and avoid clog. Whenever one would visit gas stations, piles of
soft tissues are given as an act of hospitality too. Tissues are almost free; I
could have a lot of tissues from “promodizers” just walking by the mall or the
subway. <o:p></o:p></div>

Busting Out A Hoax: Cosmic Rays From Mars Will Hit Earth

<p><div style="text-align: justify;">
Hoaxes have been part of the satirical world of the Internet ever since. Different hoax had been a global and phenomenal trend ever since. Some are really obviously false while other hoax is almost as near as a fact. Hoax had since then shaped the course of human life in different perspectives everyday.</div>

One hoax news had recently spread these past days and this hoax is about cosmic rays from Mars that will hit Earth. This cosmic rays was rumored in the hoax that can cause high radiation in opened gadgets and it is added to the hoax that everyone mus turn off their gadgets starting 10:30pm up to 3:30am tomorrow. The hoax had spread all over the country thru text and was spammed all over other cellphone users. This hoax had started in late 2010 in the US in which BBC news had posted a <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/8465619.stm" target="_blank">news</a> article about it.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So what are these cosmic rays? A cosmic ray is a immensely high-energy radiation that originates outside the solar system. There is no confirmed study where cosmic rays come from but researches from NASA states that these cosmic rays come from supernovae, active galactic nuclei, quasars, and gamma-ray bursts. As contrary to the hoax, there is still no confirmed information that heavenly bodies such as planets can create cosmic rays and Earth has a stable atmosphere that can protect its inhabitants from cosmic rays.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
My own opinions about this hoax is that this thing is 100% obviously satirical to people who has idea in the field of modern electronics and computers. If we do got caught by the satire news and followed such order, every computer and gadget will be turned off which will also include the vital computers used by radar operators in airports, weather agencies, or even in broadcasting stations. Shutting these down just for that kind of joke would cripple the entire nation in a very disastrous manner. Instead of putting nonsense hoaxes just to get the attention of the people, we should instead use it to spread information on what really cosmic rays are.</div>

Three Eras of British Band Dominance

<p><div style="text-align: justify;">
The music scene is one of the best and iconic scenery in the pop culture and mainstream living of every man. As well as the songs that emerged from nowhere had started to pop up, get known, top the charts, slip through it and exit it. Well, the songs that emerge are all credited to its composers and performers. Music as well can sometimes be considered as a digital war of listening because of the existence of the music charts, especially the one that is ran by the music magazine, Billboard.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In my observations and research regarding the music scene of British performers, it is well obviously seen that there are three British bands from different generations that dominated the world in the music scene and pop culture. Somewhat, their influence had largely changed the music scene ever since they have started emerging and dominating the world music scene. Here are the following British bands we are mentioning from three different generations of time:</div>

The Beatles is an English rock band from Liverpool composed of John Lennon (vocalist), Paul McCartney (guitarist), George Harrison (guitarist), and Ringo Starr (drummer). The Beatles are well known in the 60's and their dominance in the music scene is referred once as <i>Beatlemania</i> and they are considered by music critiques, fellow celebrities, and fans alike as the greatest and most influential act of the rock era. After a decade of fame in the 1960's, The Beatles broke up and each member had move on with their respective music careers. As of today, only two members of the Beatles are still alive, Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr. John Lennon was assassinated on December 1980 while George Harrison died of lung cancer last November 2001. The two remaining members remained active in the music scene as of today. RIAA considers The Beatles as <i>The Best-selling Band in the USA</i>. They also had more number-one albums on the British music charts, more than any other British band or performer alike.

The Spice Girls is an all female pop group from London, composed of Melanie Brown (Scary Spice), Melanie Chisholm (Sporty Spice), Geri Halliwell (Ginger Spice), Emma Bunton (Baby Spice), and Victoria Adams-Beckham (Posh Spice). Their dominance in the 90's era sparked the <i>Girl Power</i> phenomenon among teenage girls and had pioneered the commercial breakthrough of teen pop music in the 1990's. People ranging from music critiques and fans alike consider them as one of the powerhouses of the 90's music scene and also, they are referred as the greatest female group of all time. The Spice Girls had reached the dominance of global music scene in 1996 when they released their debut single, <i>Wannabe</i> which managed to hit #1 on 30 countries worldwide. The group however, took a hiatus in 2000 and each member moved on to their respective careers but they declared that the group will not break up.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Spice Girls are considered as the greatest female group of all time. The group as well was considered as the second generation of British music dominance since the Beatles in the 1960's. They are also the best-selling female group of all time and the record still stands today. Billboard stated as well that The Spice Girls had achieved <i>The Highest Debut of a Non-American Artist at Hot 100</i> with their debut single Wannabe debuting at 11. The Spice Girls as well was a very successful marketing engine at the 90's with grosses of $500 million to $800 million in the time of 1996 to 1998, with the group earning $75 million per year. Last 2012, the group performed <i>Wannabe</i> and <i>Spice Up Your Life</i> once again on the closing ceremonies of the 2012 London Olympics and thus, their latest performance as The Spice Girls, aside for their reunion concert last 2007.</div>

One Direction is a London-based boy band composed of Harry Styles, Louis Tomlinson, Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, and Liam Payne. Each member are rejected contestants in the singles audition of the seventh season of X-Factor but however after being grouped up under the ideas of Nicole Scherzinger (who was an X-Factor judge at that time) and Simon Cowell, they managed to enter the Group category and finished third in the X-Factor Season 7. Due to the high demand and the spawning power of social media, One Direction just easily managed to reach fame and get the attention of the international music scene.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
One Direction is well known for their undefeated streak at their nominations at the Teen Choice Awards. They have a stunning record of 14-0 winning streak on all their nominations on the said award event since they got their first nomination at TCA's last 2012. They we're also proclaimed by Billboard as the <i>Top New Artist/s of 2012</i>. They are also the second wealthiest musicians under age of 30. Prior to the release of their third album <i>Midnight Memories</i>, One Direction became the first band in the history of Billboard Top 200 Albums Chart to have the first three albums hit the #1 spot. The said album as well became the biggest selling album in 2013.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As of 2014, the band is currently signed to Simon Cowell's Syco Records and is currently working on their fourth studio album.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The three bands featured however, in my opinion, are really the ones that had caught the attention of the worldwide music scene. The power and influence of these three bands that was shown in their respective generations only show that not only the American musicians can make a difference in dominating the international music scene.</div>

<b>1. Show up for the first day of Class - </b>Some Professors might change your class schedule due to conflicts and it often happen on the first week or on the first day. It may be a change in time schedule or room number, so to avoid more hassle in your part it is important to attend your first day.<b> </b>Well I think most of you guys will attend your first day of class, not only because you are excited but you don't want to feel "OP" on the second day when everyone in your class have already their own friends or group right?<br />
<br />
2.<b>Don't forget to bring the college student's best friend -</b> The yellow paper, trust me you will need it until the last day. for what? writing stuffs. Don't be parasite to your other classmates, showing how irresponsible and incompetent you are will give you a hard time finding group mates in projects and in your thesis. Remember first impression lasts, at least show you are good at something. Being responsible.<br />
<br />
<b>3. Don't Buy the Books - </b>until after the first day, Some professors will not require you anymore to buy a book for their subject if they are not the author of that book, and some are so good in lecturing that all you need to do is to listen and to take down notes.<br />
<br />
<b>4. Take down notes - </b>even if you have "photographic memory", it's still important to take down all the requirements and lectures of your professor. It is much easier to review your notes than reading the topic on the net or on your textbook.<br />
<br />
<b>5. Due tomorrow, Do tomorrow is not cool - </b>Trust me, I've seen this, I've done this, you don't want this. start the work on  the day your project or research gave to you, I'm not saying to rush things up but start early, in that way, you will have more time to analyze and revise your work. and once you finish early you will have more time to relax and enjoy you free time.<br />
<br />
<b>And last thing, Enjoy - </b>The most exciting part in the first day for college freshmen is everything. Everything is new, the atmosphere, the people, the place. Be friendly, explore your campus and the city, try new things , enjoy your first day, because trust me you will need it.<br />

Everyone we met in our everyday life always have their own passion for music. The popularity of pop music had made the music scene a daily trend and a part of every people's pop culture. Music as well gave the reputation and fame for the singers and bands we idolize almost the whole time.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
I, personally admit myself that I am a Katy Perry fan. Some people and mutual fans I know call a Katy Perry fan as a KatyCat. In my years of listening to different kind of English songs, my taste usually falls on the mainstream ones, until one of my fan friends had introduced me to indie music and to a singer that I am sure only few Filipinos know, Marina and the Diamonds.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now who is Marina and the Diamonds? Is it band (Hence, the name) or some sort of a random musician? Well, if I tell you guys, Marina and the Diamonds is a screen name of the solo Welsh singer Marina Diamandis. If you got curious what is that "Diamonds" thing, she used it to describe her fans hence coming out with a conclusion of "Marina and her fans".</div>

How Marina and the Diamonds' music had reached the Filipinos and created a few Filipino Diamonds' is still a big question to me as a music listener. One big factor to this is the Internet itself if I ask anyone. At this point of time, there are only rare people who knows Marina and the Diamonds but I believe, one day, her name will be known by many Filipino music listeners. If you're curious of how she voice like in singing, here's a music video of her hit single <i>"Primadonna"</i>.</div>

My mother was diagnosed with Stage 3 Breast Cancer back when I was child, that time I still don't have any idea what is happening, all I know is my mother never comes out of her room and her hair is starting to fall out. After months of chemotherapy she got better, she get back to her normal life, to our normal life, Like it was never happen, She still have monthly check ups but everything is fine.<br />
<br />
Years have passed, Me and my other siblings are all grown ups, getting ready to face the real world and to settle down, I discover something that tested my faith. Our parents kept the secret that my mother is once again suffering from cancer, and this time a Stage 4 Bone Cancer.<br />
<br />
This time is different, This time, I can see what is really happening, I can see everything. This is the time where my faith is being tested, this the time I questioned myself if God really exist. We tried our best to be a good Catholics, going to Mass every Sunday and holidays, My mother even volunteered in a social service after she got better from her previous cancer. This is the time I questioned God, Why us?<br />
<br />
I remember the day when I brought my mother to hospital via ambulance, nothing more painful than seeing your mother lying in an ambulance bed. Not knowing what will happen I just sit in the end of car and just look all the cars we pass away.<br />
<br />
I remember the day I carried my mother's oxygen tank to our car going to hospital for her therapy. I remember the day I help my mother walk because she can't stand alone anymore, I remember the day when I just hide and cry because I know there is nothing I can do.<br />
<br />
I'm wrong, there is more that I can do. If my father never give up and do everything just to send my mother in a good hospital, there is something that I can do. If my aunt never give up to take care my mother when my father is at work and when we are at school, there is something that I can do. If my mother never give up for us and to be us again for more years, there is something that I can do.<br />
<br />
The days when I see my mother's smile, seeing her getting stronger as days goes on are the days I will never forget. Reading her texts on my phone jut to know how am I doing are the days I will never forget. The days that everyone is there to support us and to be with us in this times of trials are the days I will never forget.<br />
<br />
Life can be tough sometimes, But together with your family, it is just a piece of cake. For all sons, husbands, brothers and sisters, friends of people have cancer be strong for them. showing to them that everything is just going to be fine is the best support that we can give. Because sometimes, the best medicines are cannot be found in tablets and injections but with people who loved them most.<br />
<br />
Years ago, my mother knocked out her Breast Cancer. Right now she is battling with her stage 4 Bone Cancer and guess what, She is winning.</p>

My Say to "I'd Rather Go Hungry" Girl

<p>Have you read the article "I Would Rather Go Hungry Than Eat Filipino Street Food Again? This is a review written by a travel blogger from Poland, Agness Walewinder. According to her website, Etramping.com is about travelling the world for less than $25 a day.<br />
<br />
Many filipino netizens react negatively after reading the review. Personally, it did pisses me off not only with the one who wrote it but also to my fellow Filipino who had been asked  for a traditional breakfast and gave them a bunch of fruits, coffee and cakes filled with jam? seriously? Im just a normal Filipino but I never had an apple or banana for breakfast, maybe after eating my 'traditional breakfast' but not right after waking up. That is if she really asked someone for a traditional breakfast.<br />
<br />
If you will ask me or any other Pinoy for a Filipino traditional breakfast, there some that will instantly pop in my head. Pandesal, Tuyo, Tinapa, Tapsilog or any meat that you like to mix with fried rice and egg. She probably ask a wrong person and eat in wrong places.<br />
<br />
She also mentioned that she suffered a lot of illness while staying in the Philippines like massive migraine, diarrhea, dizziness, mood swing and feeling tired. Take note, she's a travel blogger, she travels a lot. Blaming the food for having PMS?<br />
<br />

<br />
She posted a photo of a hot-dog sandwich which I'm pretty sure that is been bought in a convenience store. Filipino are not stupid to not know the difference between a hot-dog and longganisa. Making up a story? I think so.<br />
<br />
Using my country to bring to attention to her blog is pathetic. After she received lot of comments and traffic on her previous post "Impression of Philippines" and realizing how proud and sensitive Filipino are. she take an advantage of it by criticizing the "traditional food".<br />
<br />
I feel sorry for her for not having the best food in the country, or maybe she had but decided not to write a review about it because it will be a lot better traffic for her blog if she criticize it.</p>

<li>It’s not as easy to grab a job especially when you are getting opportunities on peak seasons. We can say that you are in a game of 1 vs 100. Waiting game is also essential here. Don’t just grab jobs just for salary. Aim for what you are passionate about.</li>
<br />
<li>Your life would be tougher now. Considerations like in school are not possible anymore.Yet, be kind and also be competitive.</li>
<br />
<li>It will not only be you. We know you want to solo your salary. But then again, let us not forget our parents or whoever who have supported us in our academic journey. We can help them in any way as possible.</li>
<br />
<li>Your life is now at stake-and we mean your expense will not be from parents. Maybe at first, it would be hard to manage your own salary. But then again, like in school you should learn how to prioritize.  There are things that you should buy now and buy later.</li>
<br />
<li>The greatest perks would be having a treat from a great hard work. Worth waiting. ^_^</li>

Why Social Media Hate Nancy Binay

<p>Nancy Binay (Nancy Sombillo Binay Angeles), Daughter of Vice President Jejomar Binay, One of the Senatorial Candidates of the 2013 Senatorial Election and about to proclaim as one of the Senators of the Republic of the Philippines.<br />
<div>
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeV4m8YR6TJilu0smCZgSPqsFeIFt00CUPQl3coj8KRUj6nbEcJeMv70dlq6BmodPJKuBsNIYA4A2nG48PCGTF5XkajJ4d62HASU0Lc5R1_cmamShkaQVeLPtYAm59NrVYXkeh4INg6lx6/s1600/2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeV4m8YR6TJilu0smCZgSPqsFeIFt00CUPQl3coj8KRUj6nbEcJeMv70dlq6BmodPJKuBsNIYA4A2nG48PCGTF5XkajJ4d62HASU0Lc5R1_cmamShkaQVeLPtYAm59NrVYXkeh4INg6lx6/s1600/2.jpg" /></a></div>
<div>
<br />
After receiving lots negative feedback from the Social Media last campaign and election she still manage to win. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
But Why Social Media Hate Nancy?</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
1. <b>Not Participating on Debates</b> - After the netizen heard the 'Fake' news that Nancy had a Temporary Protection Order from the court against any kind of discussion and/or debates, netizens rage calling her Dumb and not fit for a public office. She also receive criticism after she refuse to debate Risa Hontiveros, also a Senatorial Candidate, and chooses to focus on campaigns instead. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Binay said she had no more time for debates because there are still many provinces she need to visit and she needs more grounds to cover because she joined the senatorial race relatively late after one of the candidates of United Nationalist Alliance, Joey De Venecia backed out. Nancy Binay said that the other candidates had already prepared a year ago because they had already an intentions of running for the senate.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
2. <b>No Clear Track Record - </b>Nancy Binay served as a "Personal Assistant" to her parents. She said one of her interviews that her 20-years of OJT under her parents is enough to run for the senate. Between 1998 and 2001 she performed Administrative duties as personal assistant to her mother who was then the Mayor of Makati. From 2010 She has been a personal Assistant to his father who is the current Vice President. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
She is involved in various humanitarian causes. Member of the Board of several foundations like Brighthalls Children's Foundation, Serbisyong Tunay Foundation and the JCB.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The reason why the netizens saying Nancy Binay has no Track Record because they are comparing her with Risa Hontiveros, but some of the senatorial candidates also have no clear records or no any government and legislative experience like Bam Aquino, Eddie Villanueva and Grace Poe.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
3. <b>From a Family of Politicians</b> - His father Jejomar Binay is currently the Vice President of the Philippines, His brother Jun Jun Binay recently re-elected as the Mayor of Makati, her sister, Abigail Binay elected as the representaive of Makati in the Congress and soon to be proclaimed as one of the Senators of the Philippines Nancy Binay. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Political Dynasty is widely spread in the Philippines. One Family running a city or in a different government positions. People nowadays based their votes on names and not anymore on experience and platforms. The recently Senatorial elections shows that some of the new Senatorial candidates have potential to be a good leader, but most of the winners are either re-electionist or from a family of politician.  I still don't get the point why people keep voting on the same names even they don't see any improvements.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Nancy Binay's Memes and edited pictures is scattered all over the internet. The famous so far is the Fake Cover of  the Time Magazine with a caption of "The Most STUPID Country to Elect a 20-year OJT as a Senator". </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Fake articles about Nancy Binay is also all over the social media, because she is famous, some bloggers use this to attract visitors from their blog. One of the fake article that receives many negative comments is the <a href="http://mosquitopress.net/post/48602780731/nancy-binay-reveals-childhood-trauma-papa-forced-me">Mosquito Press</a>. The article is about Nancy reveals childhood trauma. If you want to read click <a href="http://mosquitopress.net/post/48602780731/nancy-binay-reveals-childhood-trauma-papa-forced-me">Here</a>.</div>

<div>
There is a limit for everything, I didn't vote for Nancy, But respect her, She is still a woman and a mother. And the fact that there is nothing more that we can do because she is now one of the senator of the Philippines and remember the new Cybercrime law so think before you click. </div>

Things you should Never Put on Your Resume

<p><span style="font-family: inherit;">A new batch of graduates is getting ready to get their very first job and the resume maybe one of the most important things they need. The main purpose of your resume is to provide a summary of your skills, abilities and accomplishments. It is not an autobiography, it is only a "snapshot" of who you are and to emphasize your interest to secure a job interview. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">So I compiled some tips from different sites and blogs to help you and to save your most beloved resume from the shredder.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">as Yahoo! says <i>"<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 22.45px;">What you </span><span class="em" style="background-color: white; line-height: 22.45px;">don't</span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 22.45px;"> include on your resume can be as important as what you do include."</span></i></span><br />
<span class="fullpost" style="font-family: inherit;">

<i><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 22.45px;"><br /></span></i>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="line-height: 22.45px;">So here it is, the things you should never put on your resume</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="line-height: 22.45px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="line-height: 22.45px;"><b>1. Forget the Objective, They know you want the job</b></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="line-height: 22.45px;">Objective never helps, not only they are outdated for 2014, but also it is all about </span><i style="line-height: 22.45px;">what you want.  </i><span style="line-height: 22.45px;">Remember that the whole hiring process is all about what the employer wants, They don't want to know on how much you need the job and what you will get once you have the job. your resume should be about your skills accomplishment and experience. but if you still want to talk about this, There is always a Facebook Status. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="line-height: 22.45px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="line-height: 22.45px;"><b>2. Irrelevant Work Experiences</b></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="line-height: 22.45px;">If you became an Employee of the Month in KFC and want to share it to your IT employer, forget about it. Your story belong somewhere else. List only work experience that will benefit the company you are applying to.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="line-height: 22.45px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="line-height: 22.45px;"><b>3. Forget about High school</b></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="line-height: 22.45px;">Make it short, or better just remove it. Employer don't care which high school you attended and what great story you had been there. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="line-height: 22.45px;"><br /></span></span>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="line-height: 22.45px;"><b>4. Hobbies</b></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="line-height: 22.45px;">Well, if you think it will help you to get the job you may do so, but if it is irrelevant to your job it is just a waste of space. in the first place, it is not your Facebook profile.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="line-height: 22.45px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="line-height: 22.45px;"><b>5. Your Photo</b></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="line-height: 22.45px;">Unless, you will send your resume online or through email. Your appearance has nothing to do with your ability to do the job, (except if you are applying as a model). Including photo make your resume unprofessional.  But If I were the employer and you are one of the most hottest girl in the city, you may do so.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="line-height: 22.45px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="line-height: 22.45px;">That's it! If you think I forgotten something or include something to be not included in the list, Feel Free to comment!</span></span></span><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 22.450000762939453px;"><br /></span></span></span></p>
