Pacquiao won ESPY's 2009 "Best fighter" award

Why did Gayweather backed out?

yaiks, a bootvirus or rather a mbr(masterbootrecord) rootkit or trojan called killdisk wiped out my entire hard disk drive! it is a hard disk nuker, one of the most destructive virus.
i intentionally played around this specimen given to me which i requested from a security forum in order to test my defences or security set up. upon testing, the Host Intrusion Prevention System(HIPS) detected this trojan trying to have a lowlevel disk access and I denied it having that privelege. out of curiosity, i intentionally disabled all my security protections to see how the malware wipes out my entire hard disk drive being confident that i can restore from my image back ups later on.
too late to find out, that i need some lowlevel formatting to completely erase that malware in order to have a successful recovery. tried a couple of hours in doing the usual formatting (high-level formatting using acronis disk director) and trying to restore from an image back up. unfortunately, acronis true image can't recognize my hard disk drive even though it was newly formatted and the latter is as good as gone or dead from a layman's standpoint. when i'm almost ready to give up, i tried to install ubuntu linux over the previous operating system which was windows xp. the installation of ubuntu has an option in wiping the entire partitions as well as the bootsectors and replace it and install with its own bootloader. eureka! by doing a linux install, the bootable acronis true image can now recognize the newly resuscitated hard disk drive. using the image back ups, i have restored back the system with all the applications installed and tweaks in just a couple of minutes. so now, the system is back to normal, back to where it all started- before the malware testing. if anyone is adventurous enough to try this malware? i can pm you the download links for this specimen. he he

Ipagbunyi ang lahing kayumanngi! Mabuhay mga Los Indios Bravos!

Don't bring that spanish sh!t in here...I ain't a indio

Hey, now, hold your horses... hehe

Indios Bravos...That's how Jose Rizal, del Pilar and other illustrados called themselves. Review your history. Remove from your mind that racist horse sh.t of yours or you might end up as a pile full of horse d.ng. hehe In short, in fighting a bigot, you'll end up as a bigot yourself.

btw, I'm proud to be an Indio Bravo!

(original meaning of Indio:an East Indian from the East Indies and not the later Spanish period's derogatory remark)

Rizal said:´Why should we resent being called Indios by the Spaniards? Look at the American Indians. They are not ashamed of their race. Let us be like them. Let us be proud of the name Indio and make the Spaniards revise their conception of the term. We shall become Indios Bravos!´

Mabuhay Los Indios Bravos!

I would rather not be proud of a name given to us by some spaniards...I am proud of my ethnicity
Visayan of Malay descent....not Indio

Indio is just a generic term for Indians or people living in East Indies.
And as Rizal said, don't be ashamed of the term Indio.
Unlock the secret of the Laguna Copperplate Inscriptions, and you'll be proud to be a Sri Bisaya. he he

Ancient pinoys call their supreme god Apo or Apo(Insert name here)....

actually it was called Bathala

Anitun Tabu is the Tagalog goddess of the wind and rain.

Apo Laki is the Tagalog god of the sun and lord of war. He is the son of Bathala and brother of Mayari, but in the other myth his sister is Dian Masalanta and his parents were Anagolay and Dumakulem. He is identified to the Pangasinense god Ama-Kaoley.

Batala is a kingfisher considered sacred by early Kapampangans, the visit of which either hints of bad omen or good fortune.

Bathala, also known formally as Bathalang Maykapal or Maykapal is the Tagalogs chief god that is the creator of the universe and humanity. To the Cebuano people, he is known as Abba.

Dian Masalanta is the ancient Tagalogs goddess of love, pregnancy, childbirth.

Idianalé is the ancient Tagalogs goddess of animal hunsbandry.

Kimat is the lightning dog, owned by Tadaklan. When Kimat attacks, he comes down from heaven and bites whatever it is aimed at.

Lakan Bakod is the ancient Tagalog god of gardens who protect and watchover plants and sometimes the crops.

Lakan Pati (Ikapati) is the ancient Tagalogs deity of cultivated fields, a hermaphrodite. Her/his title is "The giver of food" and her/his worshippers pray to her/him to protect them from starvation. During the early period of Spanish Colonialization, Lakan Pati was used by evangelists as a native equivalent for the Holy Spirit.

Makiling in Kapampangan mythology does not have a consistent character. Some accounts say he is a deity dwelling in the Tagalog region, whose three sons courted the daughters of Suku in Mount Arayat. Some accounts say she is wife of Suku, who fetched her at Mount Makiling and back to Mount Arayat for them to live together as couples. The trail caused by the godly chariots became the Pampanga River. In a much older account, Makiling is the deity who brought the spirits out of the navel of the giant crocodile Dapu/Laut, the Sea, into the surface of the earth, using a bamboo raft (makiling is a type of bamboo). Thus, in this version, Makiling is responsible for bringing the first man and woman on earth, which in Kapampangan mythology are named Manalaksan (woodcutter) and Mangkukuran (potmaker).

Bathala beside being the supreme Deity is an omen or an oracle, or the Numen.

Tara's connection with mariners is particularly strong in her association with the sea goddess Ratu Kidul of Java, and Kuanyin, the Chinese goddess of mariners.

Tala is the name for the Morning Star, the planet Venus, in various languages of the Philippines.

In Philippine myth, Tala descends to earth sent by his grandfather the Sun to save the world from the great flood. He is born in human form and brings the gift of rice agriculture among other things.

Venus coming to earth as a human savior is rather a common theme. In Irian Jaya to the south, Papuan nationalists emblazon the Morning Star on their flag based on a local legend of the descent of Tala as bringer of good.

That clans of the sacred mountain trace the descent of their priest-king lineage to Tala, the culture-bearing prince associated with the Morning Star and whose totemic symbol is the dog.

The idea of the celestial descent of a dog or dog-man is preserved near by in the Tinguian myth of Kimat, the lightning dog, who is sent by the Supreme sky god Kadlakan. Lightning is a common symbol of the descent of heavenly bodies to earth.

Tala may have been the name for a local Nusantao trading prince who helped transmit the knowledge of rice agriculture over vast expanses of the trade network. Whatver the case he is credited with bringing rice culture to the local area.

In many regional mythologies, we find the theme of a dog coming at the time of a great flood bringing knowledge of rice farming.

As the Nusantao greatly expanded their network geographically around this time (4th millennium BCE), I have suggested that these motifs spread also into other cultures.

For example, the dog is associated with Venus in many cultures spread from ancient Egypt to ancient Mesoamerica.

Furthermore the dog is closely linked with royal lineage in most of the same cultures. In Egypt, J. Griffiths suggests that the word anpu from which we get the name of the dog-god Anubis, means both "dog" and "king's son."

During the Pyramid Era, the king was said to have the body of Atum and the face of Anubis. When the king died and united with Ra, the sun god, he was said to take Anubis/Anpu with him on his neck.

In biblical literature, the Morning Star symbolizes both the princes Lucifer, expelled from heaven, and the Messiah.

Among the Dayak, the god-ancestor Mahatala may be related in some sense to Tala of Kapampangan myth. Mahatala actually refers in this case to the hornbill creator god who unites with the female watersnake, Jata. The union of the bird and dragon clans.

Tala is rather the son of the male rooster and the female dawn serpent.

Jata is linked with the Mountain of Gold, while Mahatala with the Mountain of Diamonds.

In comparison, Manalastas, the father of Tala, comes from the Mountain of the Moon, Pinatubo, while Munag Sumalâ, Tala's mother, hails from Arayat, the mount of her father, the sun god Apung Sinukuan.

Dayaks believe that Mahatala created the Sun and Moon from clay, the same clay later used to fashion sacred Dayak jars.

Alternatively, among the Ngaju of Borneo, Mahatala represents the Sun and the sacred spear, while Jata is the Moon and the sacred cloth.

After the union of the two, Mahatala is enthroned on the primeval mountain which is supported on the back of Jata. In the Kapampangan version, Tala, the prince arising from the union of dragon and bird clans, takes the throne over the holy mountains which rest on the back of the great dragon Apung Iru.

Mayari or Bulan or Buwan or Moon is synonymous to the Aeta/Sambalic God/Goddess Apung Namalyari/Namallari or Lord of Mt. Pinatubo as opposed to the Solar Diety or Sun God Apung Suku or Sinukuan or Adlaw or Aldo or Arao or Apolaki, Lord of Mt. Arayat. Their son/daughter/sister/brother is the Goddess Tara or God Tala or BA-TALA or BATHALA.

Tantric Goddess Tara, Akkadian Ishtar, or Roman Venus, Greek Aphrodite, Sumerian Innana, The Malayo-Polynesian Sea Goddess/Tantric Goddess aka Tala

Tantric goddess Tara, whose name means "star" and who is, among other things, the goddess of the sea and seafarers.

I had noticed that many Kapampangan surnames have hindu origins Lontok,Laksamana and Angara
