Archangel’s letter to H.E. Ban Ki-moon

November 1, 2009 girbaudz Leave a comment

Archangel wrote the below communiqué to u.n. as part of the agenda for the HMES 2010:

October 31, 2009

HIS EXCELLENCY
BAN KI-MOON
Secretary General
United Nations

Dear Mr. Secretary General:

Greetings!

Every 5th of June since 1972 is commemorated by the United Nations as the World Environment Day.

In 2010-2011, scientists report that there will be a solar maximum that has not occurred since fifty years ago as reported in this article from Science@NASA:

This dream is a long time coming. The advocacy to make mapping available to poor and developing countries somehow will become the new paradigm. This is what archangel calls as a shift in whole policy regimes, from those of nation states to that of combines.

Good job his team is doing!  And kudos to His Excellency Hilario Davide  and the other leaders as shown in this item from today’s Philippine Star for championing our firm and determined call to transform PAGASA into a space agency or in this case, for a particular instituion of government’ to have a stronger capability to engage in brisker data communications (satellite) or to source more information from outer space.

We might be moving in the right direction…  Everyone of us is invited to take part in this positive move that is gathering good momentum…

2010 Summit on Risk Mapping in Manila

October 11, 2009 girbaudz 1 comment

We encourage the Philippine Government, Asian Governments, combines like the United Nations, World Bank, Asian Development Bank, to support this milestone activity from the remainder of 2009 up to 2010.

ANNUAL ECOLOGY CRISIS CONFERENCE

The Resource Recovery Movement will hold the first 2010 Hazards Mapping and Environment Summit (Eco 2010 Summit) in Manila, Philippines.

This is ultimately borne about by the tremendous changing of the Philippine landscape and those of other countries in the Pacific Rim in the last few decades.

All efforts towards risk mapping in relation to calamities and disasters in the past should now take into consideration the great shifts and transformations in land mass, the enormous amount of rainfall brought about by Climate Change and many new factors that were heretofore not factored into national and sub-national planning by governments as well as even by business establishments and non-government organizations.

The 2010 Hazard Mapping and Environmental Summit (HMES) is intended to develop better approaches to mapping risks and dangers to communities in the Philippines and other countries with tropical climates.

It takes a cue from the recent experience in China, Indonesia and the Philippines, notwithstanding the previous experiences in Thailand, Bangladesh, Pakistan where scores of people died due to unforeseen occurrences during the incidence of a natural disaster: earthquake, typhoon, tsunami and other calamities.

The databasing, mapping and full coordination of efforts towards use and sharing of a full function GIS on hazards, volcanoes, water, flood, forests in the Philippines and Asia, vulnerability areas, liquefaction potential, crisis and hot spots is long due because of the long-running phenomenon of Climate Change in the planet. This is also significant in that the Philippines, among other countries, lies in the Pacific Rim of Fire where a large number of earthquake faults lie.

The most important value of the conference is to determine the plan and the cost of implementing such a plan to make the Philippines and other participating nations safer from increasingly hazardous calamities.

Note: The organizers reserve the right to make minor changes in the Conference details prior to the actual Event.

I Miss You: By Pag-Asa (with Natalie)

October 5, 2009 girbaudz 2 comments

The Pag-Ah Sa A, sings: I miss you like crazy

I Miss You Like Crazy
by Natalie Cole, Pag-Asa

Even though its been so long, my fortune telling’s just going wrong
I remember the things that we used to do, a kiss in the rain
Til the sun shined through, I’d try to deny it, but Im still am missing you
I miss you like crazy, I miss you like crazy, ever when I’m forecasting

Every hour of every day, I miss you like crazy, I miss you like crazy
No matter what I say or do, theres just no getting tama you
I can see the clouds flying in the sky, and it comes as such a sweet surprise
If seeing’s believing its worth the wait, so hold me and tell me its not too late

We’re so good together, we’re erring forever now, and I miss you like crazy
I miss you like crazy, ever when I’m forecasting, every hour of every day
I miss you like crazy, I miss you baby, a love like ours will never end
Just touch me and we’re there again

Musical interlude

Just one night and well have that magic feeling like we used to do
Hold on tight and whatever comes our way were gonna make it through
If seeing’s believing it’s worth the wait, so hold me and tell me its not too late
Were so good together, were starting forecasver now

And I miss you like crazy, I miss you like crazy
No matter what I say or do theres just no getting rightayou
And I miss you (baby), I miss you (baby), all the tender love you gave me
When a feeling gets this strong, you know the real thing come along
And I miss you, I miss you like crazy baby, only youre sweet love
Can save me, I miss you like crazy, a love like ours will never end
Just touch me and were there again,
Miss you like crazy, I miss you like crazy

Tama talaga Pag-Ah-Sa-A.

Everytime, all the time I feel in my guts it will rain hard and I tell people about it they rebuke me, because you keep saying it won’t.

When I render my psychic, clairvoyant prediction that it will not rain though there may not be much sun, you say, no. it’s bagyo signal no. 2.

When fishermen agree with me that it will be a bagyo coming with the signs in the sky and all around, you still say signal no. 1 or no signal.

You always miss, you’re crazy!!! Mintis!!!

Local Disaster Management

September 29, 2009 girbaudz 1 comment

Thank you for your post Archangel. Pity those people who drowned in the flood. Of course Sec. Teodoro is saying that no one drowned at sea this time.  But it will be the height of shamelessness if the Coast Guard allowed or dispatched ships in those conditions in September 26. This should actually have been done a long time ago.  It is ideal to localize.  If they think in terms of a network platform of staging operations, they can actually do it. This concept is readily and easily available even on the internet. Still and all, there is a problem in communications, in money matters — er, economics, a lot of politics (Liberal Party posturing with the leftists that government is to blame for the mess), a lot more corruption, the lack of equipment for forecasting and rescue be it for typhoons, floods, avalanche, log stampede, etc. at Pag-asa, Office of Civil Defense, Philippine Navy, Philippine Coast Guard, Philippine Air Force, the Maritime Group of the PNP, local government units, among others.  Yes, I vote for going local, after all nothing is truer than the doctrine of ideal time and motion: more results with less motion and less time.  Let’s only hope that our leaders try for once to think straight and forget about agendas.  Lives are at stake.  Who knows if they or their loved ones are next?

Postscript:  Its also sad that the relatives and the people of the late Cory will not have a mind to return our flood control funds from Japan. Damn that we’re paying for the loan to the Japanese.  Sad as well that we have to say good bye to all the other monies stolen for other flood control projects.

Kudos (II) to Gilberto C. Teodoro, Jr.

DBM money for faxes, electric fans, and Disaster Assistance etc.

 

First,  even if the Pag-Asa is under the Department of Science and Technology, it is Sec. Gilberto Cojuangco Teodoro, Jr. who is the chief whip of the inter-agency task group that coordinates disaster assistance. . . I was extremely surprised when I was told that suddenly Pag-Asa faxed an unsolicited message from a Quezon City number to selected government offices.  Even if the fax contained near-microscopic letters and minute drawings of clouds, rains, suns, it provided a good view of the coming weather conditions and what kind of preparations one should make… It makes Teodoro a good leader, a very good secretary and cabinet man.  There aren’t many good Queen’s and King’s Ministers all round us.  But Teodoro is a candidate for an Olympic gold medal for being fast on the job.  So kudos Mr. Secretary!  More of this post here…

 

On the vaunted July 18 earthquake kuno and the Blessed Mysteries of Santo Rosario de Calamidad

July 10, 2008 girbaudz 2 comments

 

 

 

 

 

Disaster Mysteries

and Disasters Known:

The Big Difference

 

 

 

We are sadly caught in a silent movie.  Not just any movie, it’s a really silent, horror movie.  It comes complete with a religious twist too!  Something about a rosary, the blessed mysteries and, for the suspense-action part of it, bang!  A calamity!!!

 

Calling the attention of Hon. Gilbert Teodoro and his uncle, Mr. Eduardo Danding Cojuangco: running the defense juggernaut of this country is not merely about working on selective potentials.  Calling on your consciences.  Calling on the Hon. Leandro Mendoza, Rey Berroya, Guiling Mamondiong, Lenlen Bautista:  running the transportation and communications concern of the country is a serious business.  Pray tell, when heads will start rolling.

 

There appears to be a very wide gaping chasm between the events that caused the present plight of the MV Princess of the Stars, the smaller sea vessels that sank in the wake of Typhoon Frank, the victims of the tropical storm in the regions and even in the capital region, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera and our cumulative available information and knowledge about disaster, calamity, natural occurrences, environmental flashpoints.

 

People, look once, twice, thrice and quar… WTF! at the National Disaster Coordinating Council (NDCC) — the only agency in the world as they say that makes disasters work properly — website.  What are they saying?

 

For instance, the Tsunami Hazard maps of the country — repeat — the country, Republic of the Philippines – is graphically represented only by Infanta, Real, Nakar (also known as REINA).

 

In the Earthquake Hazard maps again only the REINA is shown.

 

And so forth, and so on.  Then we visit the Phivolcs.  It shows its own hazard maps in horrendously minute images, in very, very small pixels, that if you expand them, they blot, scatter, blow, whathaveyou.

 

Possibly, even a simple Philippine Map by the Phivolcs, will literally kill you with apoplexy.  Why do they have to show us these things?  These are an insult to our small intelligence. To think that both Department of National (It) Depens, and the Phi(bble)(Jo)kes, are paying supposedly technically competent personages!  OMG!

 

Look at the fault line drawn by Phi(bble)(Jo)kes in their so-called map!  Shit!

 

You can see two parallel lines besides (the left and right) 7,000+ Philippine Islands and there is a teeny, weeny blurred line here and there inside the land masses that are also tiny tiny tiny!

 

To get a decent idea of where the fault lines run, you still have to go to far-away sites like the USGS, the Carleton College online encyclopedia site, while the site of NDCC will leave you breathless, with anger and a sudden illness.

 

Now comes the greatest of them all:  Tessie Tomas’ favorite lampoon topic, FAG- ASS- AH A!!!

 

The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration.  In its page, about what they intelligently call PSWS, you are treated to a series of drawings of Pre-School, Kindergarten or at its best, Grade 1 simplicity.  You can really understand the assholes as if they are conversing with you in plain fucking baby talk.  Bull fucking shit!  But wait!

 

The daring heading of the page is Modified Philippine Public Storm Warning Signals.

 

The FAG ASS AH A proceeds to explain in simple, farmerly, peasantly, fisherfolkly, urban poorly terms what the twigs and branches do when a typhoon blows over their little asses.  Then they have this quaint little home page.  Again, like Phi(bble)(Jo)kes, there is that teeny, tiny, weeny map (connected to brain dwarfism or mental nanism) syndrome again.

 

Now, people, ladies and gentlemen, relatives, friends, and lovers, this is not a joking blog post.

 

This is serious business.  Why do we have these holy mysteries being perpetrated by DND, NDCC, OCD (Office of Civil [It] Depens), DOTC, DOST, PHIVOLCS, PAG-ASA and all their fucking allied agencies?

 

Why not help us all be informed properly about disasters waiting to erupt in our midsts?

 

For instance, is it a shame to admit that Rey Punongbayan took the super secret of the Marikina – University of the Philippines at Diliman – Pasig internal earthquake fault line to his grave?

 

Imagine the United Nations or World Bank funding that fucking research just to flush out the fault lines in the Philippines and all we are being given is a fucking teeny, tiny, weeny shamefully small pixeled image of the earthquake hazard map of the country that cannot even be used decently in any presentation!

 

On the part of the DND, NDCC, OCD, DOTC, they have all the great maps in their possession.

 

They do not need to show the intelligence secrets in some of the maps they prepare!  Damnit!!!

 

All they need to show, are maps that the NAMRIA, DND-AFP and DOTC-PCG already have that could be usable for public consumption and these are easily digitized by passing them over a flatbed scanner, about the size of a coffin.  Hopefully, their own coffin as well.  Nothing really needs to be compromised!  You shits, you!!!

 

And the PAG-ASA, what Modified fucking bull is it talking about?  We are far from having a real localized, much more national public warning system for storms and whatever.  What modified are they talking about?

 

And the Department of Environment and Natural Resources — DENR under Sec. Jose Atienza is doing no better.  Do we have an environmental hazard map?  DENR through NAMRIA has been spending a lot for Geographic Information Systems along with the Land Registration Authority or LRA.  Do we have a decent hazard map of potential nature flashpoints?  With the global warming plague coming, is DENR properly addressing the threats?

 

It is the National Science Week for (f_g) christ’s sake!  Are there going to be no policy statements that will be made about our bline ness and blayt?  God almighty!!!  And the bishops and priests are doing the political salsa, salsa, salsa but not moving the concerned to look after our real welfare!!!  The Shits!!!

 

And look at the Protestants, led by chief justice!  Susmaryosep!!! What are all these idiots doing?

 

No wonder, the Suspicious Lines was blaming, in the same breath, GOD, (daw) and PAGASA.

 

I would not mind putting the blame on PAGASA for the oil price hike, the collapsation and near drowning of Joe Perez a/k/a Joe De Venecia in the muddy canals of Qatar, the kidnapping and carnal re awakening of Ces Drilon, Homobono Adaza arrest, the foiled attempt of the Adaza-Fortun-Mapalo-Cardeño-Amboy-Peña gang to assassinate the Filipino partners of the japon client of Fortun to blame the japon and make him vomit a happily tremendous load of shit dirty money, the kuno-kuno kudeta so the arrest and detention will justifiably be inane and inadequate, the earthquake in china, the terrorism against the Beijing Olympics by the Tibetans, etcetera, etcetera, the emerging dementia of the chief justice of the supreme court, and so many other things so pervading in the air.

 

And DOST, what in hell is it doing wallowing in total shitty surroundings and working conditions in Bicutan, Taguig and not requesting for better funding and better facilities and not writing project proposals for grants to people like Filipino Fr. Dan Ceballos in Europe (can be contacted through the Catholic Church and the Catholic communications center in Sta. Mesa), who could push huge, enormous amounts of money in foreign currencies to build laboratories, buy equipment, materials, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera.  For fucking love of god!  DOST cannot even buy a decent electric fan in its ground floor laboratory!  No wonder it cannot dish out good technologies because barely little of its money goes into decent spending.  It can’t even print a decent map of the Philippines and its earthquake faults and this Brazilian nincompoop’s warning about a July 18,2008 disaster keeps everyone awake, alive, dreamy, suddenly bereft and deprived of morning and evening sex, frustrated about the missing first million, angst-ridden, suffering from ear pain, tooth ache, stomach cramps, back aches, arthritis, gout, high blood, murmuring heart, syphilis, gonorrhea, AIDS, HIV, SARS, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera. Susmaryosep! Susmaryosep …  Talaga!!!  Tanga!!!

 

So we are a people meandering in abject darkness, divested of our supreme natural right to be informed citizens of the Republic, our Chief Justice is traipsing all around about EJK, EJK, EJK kuno, susmaryosep!!!  And we  will all be swept by the genocide of nature in magnitude greater than suspicious lines’ murderings and mass assassination, as DOST jet-setting wannabes are schlepping all over the globe and hopping from one fancy hotel and restaurant to another in the guise of Technology Quest, Technology Coordination, Technology Research, Technology Design, Technology Development, Scientific Endeavors, and all that ersatz!  And all we get to be shown are small pixels of pictures that are put to total and absolute shame by the sleazy FHM Magazine of the Gokongweis!!!

 

Por dios por santo!!!

 

Totally, an unwonderful world, pardon the pun Mr. James Morrison.

 

In the next nine to ten days prior to July 18, if the Brazilian crazy’s earthshaking predictions will prove to be right after all, what are we to do?  We shall lie in languor and await our dire fortunes.  The Corinthian Gardeners will humbly exercise their patience to lead themselves to their own extinction, and we will fall after them if they grasp our toes, hair, edge of our shirts, pants, skirts, socks, shoes, boots, fingers, panties, bras, tampons, condoms, IUDs, noses, ears, mouths, penises, pubic hairs, vaginas, rectums, eyes, or in a really authentic disaster’s milieu, as favoredly announced by media always, if the Corinthian Gardeners happen to  hold on to our or a portion of intestines, livers, nerves, muscles, pelvises, spinal columns, bones …

 

Whatever.

 

Ewwwwe!!!!
