EDITORYAL PAGAWAING BAYAN Marming pagawaing bayan ngayon sa ibatibang lugar. Mga tulay, kalsada, gusali at ibapa. Pero tila yata ang ilang ay napapabayaan na matapos na simulan. Bumubuhos na naman ang ulan ng mas maaga kysa sa inaasahan, matapos pa kaya ng matino ang mga pagawaing bayan na ito. Isa na ang tulay na hango ang pangalan kay dating Senador Ninoy Aquino ay tila napabayaan na ang mga bakal na naka handusay sa ilalim ng tulay at kinakalawang na. Puwede pa ba ito, kahit puno na ng kalawang ang mga bakal. Natatandaan ko pa ng itayo ang basket type bridge sa Bamban ay binalot pa ng mga gumawang Hapones ang mga bakal at nilagyan agad ng epoxy primer para di mangalawang. Bakit ang NB na kontruksiyon ay tila pinabayaan na sa kalawang ng bakal na gagawin yatang tukod sa tulay. Tama bang konstruksiyon ito? Bakit hindi pinupuna ng DPWH o anumang ahensiya na puwedeng maki-alam at sumita sa nangyayaring ito. Tila wala ng kalidad ang mga bakal na gagamitin dito, Paki-tsek nga mga kumpare ng hindi masayang ang pera ni Juan dela Cruz. Sino pa ba ang dapat na magmalasakit na para sa bayan. Di ba tayo rin, kung hindi tayo kikibo mananatili ang mga pasaway na kontraktor. CENTRAL LUZON

MARAMI ANG NAGSIPAGTAPOS NGAYON, SAAN NA NAMAN KAYA SILA TUTUNGO PARA MAKAHANAP NG TRABAHO? Ilang paaralan ngayon ang di magkandaugaga sa paghahanda para sa kanilang graduation day preparation, ilang libong bata ang sa ngayon ay magtatapos, subalit ano ang ginagawang paghahanda ng ating pamahalaan upang matulungan ang mga bagong graduates natin? Malaking halaga ang ginugugol ng mga magulang upang makapagtapos ang kanilang mga anak sa kolihiyo, subalit sa kanilang pagtatapos ay nakatambay lang ang mga ito dahil walang mapasukang trabaho. kaya karamihan sa kanila’y nangingibang bansa na lamang, tinitiis ang pangungulila sa pamilyang iniwanan, dahil walang ginawang hakbang ang ating sariling gobyerno upang matulungan ang ating mga kababayan na nagsipagtapos na sa pagaaral. Kailan kaya magbabago ang pananaw ng ating mga nanunungkulan? Sana naman hindi lang puro pagkakaperahan ang kanilang iisipin, mag-isip naman sila kung papaanong masuportahan itong ating mga bagong graduates upang mapaglinang nila ang kanilang kaalaman dito mismo sa sariling bayan. Pag-isipan naman sana nang maayos, yaong may sustainability at hindi ningas kugon lamang. Malapit na naman ang election, marami ka na namang maririnig na mga pangako mula sa mga pulitiko, sana naman, yaong may saysay naman sana.
FIRST BATCH NG CTTC NAGSIPAGTAPOS Tatlumpung mag-aaral sa Computer Technical Training Center ang unang batch ng mga nagsipagtapos ng Computer Hardware Servicing (CHS) NCII . Isang daang porsiyento o lahat sila ay pumasa sa NC II assestment na ibinigay ng Technical Education Skills and Development Authority (TESDA). Kasama ang kanilang mga mahal sa buhay ay tinanggap nila ang katibayan ng pagtatapos na ibinigay ng nasabing paaralan. Naging panauhing tagapagsalita si City Councilor Glenn Troy Caritativo sa graduation at kinumpirma naman ni Mark Jessel Malvar, CTTC President ang mga nagsipagtapos. Lumuluha ang mga ito habang inaawit ang graduation song dahil sila’y magkakahiwahiwalay na nagsama ng isang taon sa Technical Course na CHS. Matapos ito na may isang salu-salo, na ginanap sa 3rd floor ng AA building na kinaroroonan ng CTTC.

Making Geekdom Cool and Profitable Robert Stephens, founder of Geek Squad, remembers the first time he saw the Internet – in a research laboratory at the University of Minnesota, circa 1990 – and likens the moment to the California Gold Rush. By 1994, the former computer-science student had dropped out, turned a side job repairing PCs into Geek Squad, and was sending employees dressed in nerdy ensembles (tooshort dark pants, white socks) to fix computer glitches at local companies or homes. Eight years later, the Richfield, Minn., company that Stephens started with $200 was acquired by Best Buy for about $3 million. Today it has 20,000 employees in 1,038 Best Buy stores and seven stand-alone Geek Squad locations. Stephens, 40 years old, has stayed on as a vice president and retains his original Geek Squad title: Chief Inspector. Edited interview calls. Once you've hired agents A.

Lots of people were leaving college with a lot of debt. If you take that on, then you're screwed. There's no way to break out of the cycle. I didn't want to have to worry about paying off student loans. And it's easier to do a start-up in your 20s, because you can be selfish – you don't have a family yet. Q. Did you really start the company with $200? A. Yeah. I had a mountain bike and a cell phone. I was still a student at the time, but once I realized it was a potential business my grade-point average started to drop. Q. You grew Geek Squad without taking on debt. How? A. It was very easy. If you think about it, the reason that most service companies stink is that you don't need much money to get into them. All I needed was business cards and a phone number.
