Notes:
.
I saw Bob Shrike today (Wednesday, 22 June 2011) at 10:45 a.m. perched on a twig of a tree. He looked like he was drenched from the rain and was "cleaning" himself. At some point in time he suddenly flew away when he heard the sound of a "baby" bird, presumably his fledgling (inakay). I followed him but I was not able to see the "baby" bird; I only heard its cry...

2010 ACM ICPC Philippine National Programming Contest
(4th ACM Inter-Collegiate Phillippine National Programming Competition)
Date: November 20, 2010 (Saturday)
Venue: Ateneo de Naga University
Organized by Computing Society of the Philippines (CSP)
Hosted by Ateneo de Naga University
MESSAGE
Mabuhay!
Welcome to the 2010 ACM International Collegiate Programming Contest-- 4th Philippine National Programming Competition, hosted by Ateneo de Manila University.
The ACM ICPC is a prestigious event that aims to raise the awareness of the public about the important role of Information Technology in the development of our country and our society.Its objective of bringing together bright and talented young people from different countries to take part in a grueling friendly competition, like a mental Olympiad, is quite noble.
This is the fourth ACM national programming competition organized by the Computing Society of the Philippines in collaboration with the ACM. The first national contest was held in 2007 in De La Salle - Canlubang, the second was held in the University of San Jose-Recoletos (Basak Campus) in 2008, and the third was held in Ateneo de Manila University in 2009.
To all participants and coaches, I hope that you will take advantage of this opportunity to meet and interact with your fellow competitors from all over the Philippines. I also hope that you will also enjoy your stay at the Ateneo de Naga University.
Finally, I would like to thank the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), the Computing Society of the Philippines (CSP) and Ateneo de Naga University. I would also like to thank my co-organizers, judges, volunteers, and our sponsors for making the 2010 ACM ICPC Philippine National Programming Contest a success.

WORK -- contains a reasonable number, but not more than 100 pages, of blank bond paper and graphing paper, all letter-size, for the team member to use as scratch papers during the contest.The notebook may have a plastic pouch containing pencils, pens, erasers, ruler, compass, protractor, and triangles.The team members may not bring a calculator to the contest.Each team member may bring a dictionary for translation purposes. The only marking allowed on the dictionary is the identity of the owner.
Clarification (issued on Nov. 18, 2010): A page is defined as one side of a bond paper. So one bond paper with a back-to-back print is considered two pages.

ICT For Development: Notes on Poverty and Poverty Alleviation in the Philippines
.
Link to blogpost: http://raffysaldana.blogspot.com/2010/03/ict-for-development-notes-on-poverty.html
Note: I am currently involved in a project dealing with poverty reduction in one of the poorest regions of the world.
Starting today (March 19, 2010) I would like to write a series on "Poverty and Poverty Alleviation in the Philippines"
Part I. Notes on Poverty in the Philippines
Source: Poverty in the Philippines: Causes, Constraints, and Opportunities by the Asian Development Bank 2009
"Poverty and inequality have been recurrent challenges in the Philippines and have again come to the fore in the wake of the current global financial crisis and rising food, fuel, and commodity prices experiend in 2008."
Current Profile of Poverty in the Country
------------------------------------------------
* Poverty incidence among households increased from 24.4% in 2003 to 26.9% in 2006
* The number of poor families (households) increased from 4.0 million in 2003 to 4.7 million in 2006.
* The headcount index increased from 30.0% in 2003 to 32.9% in 2006
* The number of poor people increased from 23.8 million in 2003 to 27.6 million in 2006.
* According to the 2006 poverty data, Mindanao has the highest poverty incidence at 38.8% but Luzon has the highest number of poor families, with almost 2 million families (42.4% of the total).
* Self-rated poverty has ranged from 50% to 52% for most of the 2008, peaking at 59% (an estimated 10.6 million people) in the second quarter.
*Inequality has also been persistent over the years. Although the Gini coefficient improved to 0.4580 in 2006 from 0.4605 in 2003 and 0.4872 in 2000, the level of inequality remains hign compared with other countries in Asia has hardly changed for more tha 20 years.
*High inequality has limited the impact of economic growth on proverty reduction.
