MANILA, September 29, 2003 (STAR) That young Filipino minds equally excel, if not edge out, their American and Indian counterparts in the field of information technology (IT) was proven once more in the software development contest sponsored by a European group of cellphone and IT groups. And Mapua Tech equally proved its excellence in IT education apart from its leadership in traditional engineering courses. Software for mobile phones developed by four Mapua Graduates swept all the top four prizes in the recently concluded "Mobile Internet Applications Development Competition," also dubbed as Nokia Challenge 2003. Prior to the selection of the winners, 12 out of 34 entries were pre-selected and declared "concept winners." In their working prototypes, four entries, all conceived and developed by Mapua computer and engineering students who just graduated last April, were adjudged winners of the competition on Java-based

software designing. Copping first place was Mapua John Michael Lozano (B.S. Computer Engineering), with his "My Brain Bench" entry. Lozano's software is a mobile training module designed to allow users to groom themselves in their desired field of education with several training modules. His prizes included a free trip for two to Europe and 150,000. Lozano's twin brother, engineer John Paul Lozano, an Industrial Engineering graduate of Mapua Tech, was awarded the second prize and got P75,000 cash and a free trip to Singapore for two, for his Java-based "My Home Remedies" program. "My Home Remedies" is a comprehensive, safe and practical health and stress advisory and management guide application via mobile phones. Another Mapua Computer Engineering graduate, Louie Marco de los Reyes, got the third prize for his "My Calc Buddy" a scientific calculator tuned in to a mobile phone. De los Reyes and his project partner, Delfin Juan III, a technical consultant of the Mapua Information Technology College (MITC) in Makati, received P50,000 and a Nokia 6610. Their work solves the problem of dealing with mathematical formulas by giving cellphone users instant solutions to the most difficult math problems in seconds, whenever, wherever. MITC instructors Pofirio Atienza and Eugene Lozada "Mapping" software program was declared the fourth prize winner. They received P25,000 plus a Nokia phone. A highly configurable map engine supporting the display of information requiring visual location reference, the "Mapping" program enables users to configure their maps to display locations of deliveries, hotels and restaurants as well as traffic information. The competition was sponsored by Nokia Phils. and the German Agency for Technical Cooperation (GTZ) in cooperation with the European IT Service Center (EITSC). It was part of the Public-Private Partnership project dubbed as öÑroviding Mobile Internet Applications, Training and Technical Development in the ICT Sector." As part of the competition, 150 information and communications technology (ICT) professionals from different colleges and companies were trained at Sun Microsystems, and 60 entries were initially submitted. Twelve entries were chosen as "concept winners" and each got P25,000. The winning programs also included "Broadcast" developed by Infinit-e Asia, which is a system to create short (50-character) messages broadcast on electronic billboards in specific locations, and the "Guitar Tuner" by UP Paul Sorino, which can make the cellphone a standard electronic guitar tuner. The awarding ceremonies of the "Public-Private Partnership Project" were recently held at the Makati Shangri-la Hotel and attended by Nokia executives Martin Chesbrough, mobile integration head for the Asia-Pacific; Frankie Naranjilla, head of business development and strategy; Andrew Paddon, senior applications architect for mobile software integration; and Claus Karthe, chairman of Nokia Phils.; and Cynthia Mamon, president of Sun Microsystems.

Broken Vow - Lara Fabian



Tell me her name

I want to know

The way she looks

And where you go

I need to see her face

I need to understand

Why you and I came to an end



Tell me again

I want to hear

Who broke my faith in all these years

Who lays with you at night

When I'm here all alone

Remembering when I was your own



I'll let you go

I'll let you fly

Why do I keep on asking why

I'll let you go

Now that I found

A way to keep somehow

More than a broken vow



Tell me the words I never said

Show me the tears you never shed

Give me the touch

That one you promised to be mine

Or has it vanished for all time



I close my eyes

And dream of you and I

And then I realize

There's more to life than only bitterness and lies

I close my eyes

I'd give away my soul

To hold you once again

And never let this promise end

i still feel bad. bing and ryan, i've written something about it but not here...it's not for public consumption =) i just don't feel comfy about something.



well last sat kasama namin ni papabitch si loi (carlo villarama). wala lang. inom onti and kwentuhan. la lang.



papabitch and ryan...masama ang mang-two time or more. masakit yun! show some respect and loving.

bing...mga lalaki talaga noh?

can i say something? i feel bad. can i just say it again? i feel really bad =(

everybody's talking about the "joey marquez and kris aquino bugbugan chuva". i was able to watch part of the interview that korina did with kris and oohhh boy it was very disturbing. things she mentioned: she got STD from joey, joey pointed a gun at her, joey grabbed her arm that resulted the bruises on her arms, etc. she is ever so taklesa. so san nga ba lahat nag simula? dahil sa text message na nabasa ni kris sa celfon ni joey. selos. hmmn...she soooo loved joey as in. kahit na nde nagcoconfirm si joey (he even denied it at first) na may relasyon sila, si kris forever pa rin proud. sabi ni kris nagpapagaga na sya kay joey ng sobra pero it came to a point na nde na nya ma-take. si lalaki kasi nde loyal. grabe lang...nung kinukwestyon ni kris yung text sabi ni joey si kris daw yung may guy na maproprove ni joey with matching bato ng celfon bill sa muka ni kris. sabi ni kris, wala yun. i think alam naman ni joey na wala yun pero para lang may maibalik sa kanya so hayun...



grabe nga naman, things you'll do for the one you love. ang sakit lang nung sinabi ni joey na "pinagtya-tyagaan lang kita" eeekkk ouch. isang bagay na napakasakit na marinig from someone na sobrang mahal mo. eh siguro magaling lang magdala si joey kaya nakapag-tyaga sya. oh well...life...
