MANILA, Philippines - The chief of the Civil Aviation Authority of the
Philippines (CAAP) said he was not entirely to blame for the poor rating
given to the country's aviation sector by the International Civil Aviation
Organization (ICAO).
Ruben Ciron, CAAP director general, was reacting to the CAAP-Employees Union
's pronouncement that he should take the blame for ICAO's issuance of a
significant safety concern or SSC rating on the country |

先用OPT工作，同时申请master。如果有了名额，立马递上140和485.如果没有名额，
OPT结束了就去念master。念完找个可以办H1的工作。如果在念书过程中突然有名额了
，立马找个RN工作递上140和485.拿到工卡后一边工作一边念完master。
你看怎么样
我还是对护士绿卡名额持乐观态度。NCLEX在 Manila新开了一个考试中心。如果护士移
民总是这么困难，外国护士就算考到执照也过来不了，国外的考试中心就没什么用处了。 |

In Kigali, she wakes up,
She makes a choice,
In Hanoi, Natal, Ramallah.
In Tangier, she takes a breath,
Lifts up her voice,
In Lahore, La Paz, Kampala.
Though she’s half a world away
Something in me wants to say …
We are One Woman,
You cry and I hear you.
We are One Woman,
You hurt, and I hurt, too.
We are One Woman,
Your hopes are mine.
We shall shine.
In Juarez she speaks the truth,
She reaches out,
Then teaches others how to.
In Jaipur, she gives her name,
She lives without shame

slashed the price of 27 essential
medicines by half, after pharmaceutical manufacturers led by Pfizer Inc.
ignored a government appeal to do
so voluntarily.
The hugely popular move is supposed to make anti-hypertension and anti-
cholesterol drugs as well as
antibiotics more affordable to the country's poor, but it also alarmed the
drug industry, with Pfizer saying
in a statement Tuesday it was disappointed.

发帖数: 3528 | 11 马尼拉大帆船(Manila Galleon)每年航行于马尼拉与墨西哥的阿卡普尔科之间。从墨
西哥运来一百到四百万比索的白银，购买中国的瓷器，丝绸和东南亚的香料后，运
回墨西哥，再将货物转移到加勒比的西班牙珍宝船队，运回本土。

这里列出了马尼拉大帆船在两个港出发和到达的时间，以及船名。靠着它，我们应
该可以不太费劲的抓住一个船次(考虑蝴蝶效益，一旦我们截了一条船，其它的船次
就该变了。)
另外，从墨西哥开出的船，通常要在关岛加水，马里亚纳那时候还是土著人的地方，
可以试试派人混入当地，一旦发现船来了，用无线电联系。马里亚纳到马尼拉比台
湾北部到那里要远的多，完全来的及。
这种船通常是当时最大的，大概有1500-2000吨，抢来改装一下，很有用。船上通常
有好几百到一千人，这些人怎么办，杀了? 放了? 我的想法是抓来当奴隶，在台湾
挖煤，同时和他们学习造船和驾船的技术。 |

这个框架, 所以更适合搞集体活动, 而难以以小说的形式完全覆盖, 可是人气啊......
两条大帆船是从墨西哥去菲律宾的. 这条航线大致是从高纬度向西顺洋流运银子到菲律
宾, 再从菲律宾运送亚洲的香料, 丝绸, 瓷器等, 沿洋流向北, 到日本以南后转向东过
太平洋, 再由加州沿海向南到墨西哥的Acapulco. 这个所谓的马尼拉大帆船"manila
galleon"运输在1565–1815之间几乎从未中断. 当时荷兰, 英国控制着印度洋, 印尼,
马六甲带, 西班牙人大概更愿意走美洲航线吧. 亚洲的物资到达墨西哥后, 由陆路穿过
墨西哥, 再加入spanish treasure fleet, 和从美洲搜刮的财物一起运回西班牙. 如果
我们在加勒比作海盗, 既不中断运往亚洲的银子, 又可以打击欧洲殖民者的掠夺, 而且
比马尼拉大帆船油水要大得多, 应该是很不错的买卖.
怎样夺这两条船, 我也没想好. 我的想法是, 我们的大船应该不怕十七世纪的大炮, 利
用我们的机动性, 从它们的船尾贴上去, 在近距离用步枪火力压制一切在甲板上对我们

Dear Ms. Chua,
Like you, I am Chinese. I was born in Manila, with parents like yours,
raised like you…
But unlike you, I vowed to be a very different parent from my parents.
I never said, “I am right and you will obey me because I am your mother”.
I taught myself to say, “Mother does not know,” and “I am sorry. Mother
is wrong.”
I encouraged my daughter to enjoy all the things my parents would not allow,
sleepovers, school plays, and yes, dating.
