Our Male Parent

How do you call your male parent? Do you call him Papang, Papa?? what else? hmm.. just buzzed to my mind on how people call their "Male Parent" when someone called the attention of my YM Status Messenger that Im using the "Papang" word to call my father. Thanks for bringing it up. Ive try to seek some common names we call him especially for Filipinos or what they wanted you to call him. Please correct me if some are wrong:)

Here are some:
-Papang - This is what I call him.. Also common to our family, how my cousins call their fathers
-Papa
-Daddy or Dad for Short
-Itay - You mostly hear this from teleseryes..
-Erpats - Its a pinoy street language reversing the word (T change from D if pinoy spelling).. You may not be callinig Him this way :) i suggest not too also
-Ama
-Amahan - Cebuano..
-Tata - Chavacano
-Pops or Paps
-Tatay or Tay


Hmmm so many names we call our father.. some differences but mainly its the same.. the respect is there.. he should be called with respect.. maybe this differs ours to other cultures where they just call him by his First Name..

Well today is special to all of them whatever name we call him.. He is one of the important persons in our lives.. We can have as many partners, friends, boss/modirs, mentors that will pass to our lives but there can only be One Father in our Life.. Of course there is one common Father to all of us which is always watching and guiding us everyday high above..

So Id like to greet all our Fathers a very Happy Fathers Day.. and thank you.. thank you for having you in my life..


Also if you have any names you call your dad just post it in the comments. Thanks.

Sit Back, Relax and Welcome to the LAKERS Show!!

its been a roller coaster ride this year for the LOS ANGELES LAKERS.. before the season even started.. their best player kobe bryant demanded for a trade (maybe he's just jokin!).. they got FISH back!..then up to a good start.. andrew bynum played good and man really good! until january when he got that knee injury.. all of a sudden a spaniard name pau gasol entered LAKERLAND.. everyone got excited.. injuries came.. kobe's playing injured almost half of the season.. pau gasol missed 9 games.. another acquisition got injured in the name of Trevor Ariza.. but then still the Lakers got the no. 1 seed in the one of the Toughest Conference ever in NBA History.. Western Conference 2007-2008.. wheeww..

along came the playoffs... they swept the Nuggets.... shocked by the 2-2 tied series against Deron Williams and the Utah Jazz which eventually they won .. and here comes the defending champs along their way.. cruised them to two straight victories, got busted wide open in game 3.. had a controversial win on game 4.. and a hometown celebration for the Western Conference title at staples center!! yeah!!!..

as a laker fan it was a very nice thing to see the lakers are once again back in the NBA finals.. since 2004 the post Shaq-Kobe era has been.. lets say not so good.. missin the playoffs on 2005.. blew a 3-1 lead to phoenix at the first round of 2006.. losing again to phoenix last year in the first round.. and now all of those bad memories are set aside.. ghosts from the past has been left behind.. the only thing that came back.. is the memory of a long rivalry between two of the most celebrated franchise in NBA history.. way back in the 80's where the Showtime made up Lakers made up Magic Johnson, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, James Worthy battled a Boston's "then Big 3" of Larry Bird, Kevin McHale and Robert Parish for some NBA Finals moments.. For the record this will be the 11 meeting for the championship between the Lakers and the Celtics..

though the celtics have been regarded as the best team turnaround in nba history and very well expected to reach the Finals.. they have been shocked in the playoffs where they had to finish the first two series in 7 seven games.. led by their so called "BIG 3" of Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen and Paul Pierce.. well the lakers has their whole team ready for you Boston!!!

well all i can say is Sit Back, Relax and Welcome to the LAKERS SHOW!!!

heres a video i found reminiscin the old and welcoming the new Lakers-Celtics rivalry

IT HAS LONG BEEN DUE...

this post has really been long been due.. and the reason behind this post.. has also long been due.. this post should be written few weeks back..

Finally NBA has awarded Kobe Bryant as the leagues MVP!

well if u follow his career lately (sorry but i followed it from the start i mean 1996-1997)... i believe that he's the MVP for the last 2-3 years.. well bitterness out now since he finally got to bag it home.. and boy he really deserved it this year.. no contest! he's the man..

2-3 years long the chant of MVP at staples center in LA has never died.. although they booed him at the start of the season because of his trade demands,etc.. i feel for you people of LA but i think he just added some spice for people to make some moves.. and well they did.. along came PAU... at the end of this year you even hear the MVP chants at their opposing homecourts wheww..

i was so happy watching the awarding ceremonies of the MVP trophy... it all payed off now.. one of the completely fulfilled players in history.. it really is his year...

next thing is the championship this year.. that will be the icing on the cake..

well just like what i tell.. Sit Back, Relax and enjoy the LAKERS show.. also just like what kobe said.. "Were gonna play til June and let this party started!!..

Congratulations Kobe Bryant.. NBA MVP 2007-2008...

if you missed out on the awarding ceremonies.. here it is... LETS GO LAKERS!!!

Games and Gamers Galore

lately video games for me is only NBA LIVE, NBA 2k8, MLB the show or any sports related game.. although i play also playboy mansion on ps2 hahaha.. hmmmm.. more on sports games "ika nga".. there goes the feeling of "kantsawan" regarding our so-called franchise.. but still the child in me calls for something new.. especially now that video game consoles redefine the word gaming! wheeww... i remember way back then when i had my Family computer and my "game boy" (where i spend fortunes on batteries and expensive game cartridges.. of course not my money eheh...) where i only have A & B button.. usually jump and fire.. CONTRA.. (up,up,down,down,left, right, left right, B,A, select, start.. 30 lives!!!).. now video game controllers have tons of function.. wheew..

but for games now i dont have any idea what's new and what's good.. well got this site (CompleteGameDepot)of a very good friend zalds where it features different games he have tried, new gaming consoles etc etc, and i think theres more to come since this site is very young.. hey zalds will you feature some cheats there? hahaha... i hope you will.. hmm.. the site is good but is there a chance i can be added to your blogroll since its all gaming sites ahaha.. just kidding man..

hope you can visit this site too guys.. see you gaming..

Configuring your Your Yahoo Mail on Outlook, Windows Live Mail.. etc etc

ever tried configuring your yahoo mail to your MS Outlook, Thunderbird, Windows Live mail... well at long last i have found the way to configure my yahoo acoount to my Windows Live mail.. thanks to Liffey Pacana for his undying effort on troubleshooting this since the morning ahaha. "the best ka talaga"

well this starts by downloading a small program called YPop<--click for the link.. the latest version is 0.9.5.1 , during installation check on the option that it starts when windows starts.. make sense?

open your email client let say Windows Live Mail (it works easier compared when used in Outlook) follow these steps:

1. Click the SHOW MENU (ALT+M) button at the top right of the WLM window then click on SHOW ALL MENUS. You should now see FILE, EDIT, VIEW, TOOLS, ACTIONS, and HELP at the top of the WLM window.
2. Click TOOLS > ACCOUNTS. Click the ADD button.
3. Select E-MAIL ACCOUNT then click NEXT.
4. Enter your Yahoo! e-mail address, password, and your name as you would like for it to appear to people you send e-mail to. Check the box in front of "Manually configure server settings for e-mail account." Click NEXT.
5. Make sure to use lower case letters for your username. The username is just the username, not the full Yahoo! e-mail address. The INCOMING and OUTGOING servers are both "127.0.0.1" (no quotes). Check the box in front of "My outgoing server requires authentication". Click NEXT then click FINISH.
6. With the ACCOUNTS window still open, select your Yahoo! e-mail account and click PROPERTIES. Click the ADVANCED tab. Move the SERVER TIMEOUTS slider all the way to the right so the server timeout becomes 5 minutes.
7. Optionally, you may or may not want to keep e-mails on Yahoo! If you DO NOT WANT to keep e-mails on Yahoo!, uncheck the box in front of "Leave a copy of messages on server". Click APPLY then click OK.
8. Click CLOSE on the ACCOUNTS window to close it.

now try and test to send mail to other accounts..

enjoy..
