Tips for Drivers
another email from my friend 
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TIPS FOR DRIVERS
I've been in petroleum pipeline business for about 31 years,
currently working for the Kinder-Morgan Pipeline here in San Jose, CA. We
deliver about 4 million gallons in a 24-hour period from the pipe line; one
day it's diesel, the next day it's jet fuel and gasoline. We have 34
storage tanks here with a total capacity of 16,800,000 gallons. Here are
some tricks to help you get your money's worth:
1. Fill up your car or truck in the morning when the temperature is still
cool. Remember that all service stations have their storage tanks buried
below ground; and the colder the ground, the denser the gasoline. When it
gets warmer gasoline expands, so if you're filling up in the afternoon or in
the evening, what should be a gallon is not exactly a gallon. In the
petroleum business, the specific gravity and temperature of the fuel
(gasoline, diesel, jet fuel, ethanol and other petroleum products) are
significant. Every truckload that we load is temperature- compensated so that
the indicated gallonage is actually the amount pumped. A one-degree rise in
temperature is a big deal for businesses, but service stations don't have
temperature compensation at their pumps.
2. If a tanker truck is filling the station's tank at the time you want to
buy gas, do not fill up; most likely dirt and sludge in the tank is being
stirred up when gas is being delivered, and you might be transferring that
dirt from the bottom of their tank into your car's tank.
3. Fill up when your gas tank is half-full (or half-empty), because the more
gas you have in your tank the less air there is and gasoline evaporates
rapidly, especially when it's warm. (Gasoline storage tanks have an
internal floating 'roof' membrane to act as a barrier between the gas and
the atmosphere, thereby minimizing evaporation. )
4. If you look at the trigger you'll see that it has three delivery
settings: slow, medium and high. When you're filling up do not squeeze the
trigger of the nozzle to the high setting. You should be pumping at the
slow setting, thereby minimizing vapors created while you are pumping. Hoses
at the pump are corrugated; the corrugations act as a return path for vapor
recovery from gas that already has been metered. If you are pumping at the
high setting, the agitated gasoline contains more vapor, which is being
sucked back into the underground tank, so you're getting less gas for your
money. Hope this will help ease your 'pain at the pump'

Protect yourself from abusive MMDA officers
an email galing sa friend ko... just wanna share it with you guys
Protect yourself from abusive MMDA officers
This is a MUST read especially during this Christmas Season. Protect
yourselves especially against abusive MMDA
officers. Have your drivers read this too.
Best also to PRINT AND KEEP A COPY OF THIS E-MAIL IN YOUR CAR FOR FUTURE
REFERENCE.
TOOLS AGAINST MMDA OFFICERS
I just reached my limit last weekend, and decided to take action against
the abusive MMDA enforcers. I basically
called up the MMDA head office and inquired from the Personnel Officer,
Antonio Pagulayan, to clarify their
policies. Here is what I got.
If any of these abuses seem familiar to you, Mr. Pagulayan has asked that
you call either the MMDA hotline (136) or
call the METRO BASE at 0920 9389861 or 0920 9389875 and ask for an
Inspectorate. They will send inspectors to the
place where these MMDA officers are extorting, even while you are
arguing out of your apprehension.
1.MMDA officers are not allowed to group together in order to apprehend.
They are not even allowed to stand
together in groups of 2 or more. The only time they are allowed to work
together is for special operations (probably
when they apprehend groups of buses for smoke belching)
2. Swerving IS NOT a traffic violation. Moving one lane to the left or
right is not swerving, no matter where on
the road you do it. And it is even less of a violation when you do it
with a signal. Swerving is defined as
shifting 2 or more lanes very quickly. So you can argue your way out of
this, and call the Metro Base for help.
3. Sadly, using the yellow lane is a traffic violation and will get you a
ticket. However, buses are really not
allowed to go out of the yellow lane, so if you see selective apprehension
of private cars only, you may complain.
4. MMDA has confirmed that your license MAY NOT BE CONFISCATED at a
traffic apprehension. The only time they can do
so is if you are part of an accident, or it is your third violation and
you have not settled your fines yet. They
are only allowed to give you a ticket, which you can contest. He
recommends actually receiving the ticket in some
instances, so that you can report the officer who did it.
5. Also, you are free to ask any of these officers for their "mission
order", which is written by their supervisor.
If they apprehend you for a violation that is not in their mission order
for the day, you can report them and they
will receive disciplinary action.
So go out and fight for your rights if and when the occasion arises!

13 Sick Random Facts
1) In the 1400's a law was set forth that a man was not allowed to beat his wife with a stick no thicker than his thumb. Hence we have "the rule of thumb".
2) Many years ago in Scotland, a new game was invented. It was ruled "Gentlemen Only... Ladies Forbidden"... and thus the word GOLF entered into the English language.
3) Men can read smaller print than women can; women can hear better.
4) It is impossible to lick your elbow.
5) Intelligent people have more zinc and copper in their hair.
6) Each king in a deck of playing cards represents a great king in history:
Spades - King David
Hearts - Charlemagne
Clubs - Alexander, the Great
Diamonds - Julius Caesar
7) 111,111,111 x 111,111,111 = 12,345,678,987,654,321
8) Question: If you were to spell out numbers, how far would you have to go until you would find the letter "A"?
Answer: One thousand
9) In Shakespeare's time, mattresses were secured on bed frames by ropes. When you pulled on the ropes the mattress tightened, making the bed firmer to sleep on. Hence the phrase... "goodnight, sleep tight."
10) It was the accepted practice in Babylon 4,000 years ago that for a month after the wedding, the bride's father would supply his son-in-law with all the mead he could drink. Mead is a honey beer and because their calendar was lunar based, this period was called the honey month, which we know today as the honeymoon.
11) In English pubs, ale is ordered by pints and quarts... So in old England, when customers got unruly, the bartender would yell at them "Mind your pints and quarts, and settle down." It's where we get the phrase "mind your P's and Q's"
12) Many years ago in England, pub frequenters had a whistle baked into the rim, or handle, of their ceramic cups. When they needed a refill, they used the whistle to get some service. "Wet your whistle" is the phrase inspired by this practice.
13) This is pretty sick. I can read it actually!

Trivia
Hidden Message?
When reading horizontally from Shakespeare's original published copy of Hamlet, the furthest left hand side reads 'I am a homosexual' in the last 14 lines of the book. Was this a message, or just a coincidence?
Surely this can't be true?
Over 50% of all people fantasize more often about money than sex, so technically, Bill Gates is the hearthrob of the world.
Now that's some research project!
According to the World Health Organization, there are approximately 100 million acts of sexual intercourse each day.
Just a little to the left dear...
Every year, 11,000 Americans injure themselves while trying out bizarre sexual positions.
More Poll results
More than half the American men surveyed in a recent poll admit to having sex with women they disliked. It didn't say how many were referring to their wives ;o)
Here's one to remember.
A female orgasm is a powerfull painkiller (because of the release of endorfines), so headaches are in fact a bad excuse not to have sex.
In therapy
In a recent interview with 10 prominent sex therapists, the question was posed, 'What is the most important aspect in love making?' One said 'relaxation', Three said 'honesty', and a whopping Six out of Ten said 'staying awake'.
Is this surprising?
Although Hitler did condemn homosexual acts, he only condemned them between men. Lesbians were not condemned at all. They were rarely (if any at all) sent to concentration camps, because it was not in the laws written by Hitler to condemn women loving other women.
Get your Lipstick round... (you know the rest!)
Lip stick was said to have been invented in the Eygptian times for women that specialized in oral sex. They wanted their lips to look more inviting.
The pleasure principle
Dolphins and humans are the only known animals that have sex for pleasure.
When reading horizontally from Shakespeare's original published copy of Hamlet, the furthest left hand side reads 'I am a homosexual' in the last 14 lines of the book. Was this a message, or just a coincidence?

According to the World Health Organization, there are approximately 100 million acts of sexual intercourse each day.
Just a little to the left dear...
Every year, 11,000 Americans injure themselves while trying out bizarre sexual positions.
More Poll results
More than half the American men surveyed in a recent poll admit to having sex with women they disliked. It didn't say how many were referring to their wives ;o)
Here's one to remember.
A female orgasm is a powerfull painkiller (because of the release of endorfines), so headaches are in fact a bad excuse not to have sex.
In therapy
In a recent interview with 10 prominent sex therapists, the question was posed, 'What is the most important aspect in love making?' One said 'relaxation', Three said 'honesty', and a whopping Six out of Ten said 'staying awake'.
Is this surprising?
Although Hitler did condemn homosexual acts, he only condemned them between men. Lesbians were not condemned at all. They were rarely (if any at all) sent to concentration camps, because it was not in the laws written by Hitler to condemn women loving other women.
Get your Lipstick round... (you know the rest!)
Lip stick was said to have been invented in the Eygptian times for women that specialized in oral sex. They wanted their lips to look more inviting.
The pleasure principle
Dolphins and humans are the only known animals that have sex for pleasure.
Creepy 11
1) New York City has 11 letters
2) Afghanistan has 11 letters.
3) Ramsin Yuseb (The terrorist who
threatened to destroy the Twin Towers
in 1993) has 11 letters.
4) George W. Bush has 11 letters.
5) The two twin towers make an "11"
This could be a mere coincidence, but
this gets more interesting:
1) New York is the 11th state.
2) The first plane crashing against the
Twin Towers was flight number 11.
3) Flight 11 was carrying 92
passengers. 9 + 2 = 11
4) Flight 77 which also hit Twin
Towers, was carrying 65 passengers.
6+5 = 11
5) The tragedy was on September 11, or
9/11 as it is now known. 9 + 1+ 1 = 11
6) The date is equal to the US
emergency services telephone number
911. 9 + 1 + 1 = 11.
Sheer coincidence..?! Read on and make
up your own mind:
1) The total number of victims inside
all the hi-jacked planes was 254. 2 +
5 + 4 = 11.
2) September 11 is day number 254 of
the calendar year. Again 2 + 5 + 4 =
11.
3) The Madrid bombing took place on
3/11/2004. 3 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 4 = 11.
4) The tragedy of Madrid happened 911
days after the Twin Towers incident.
Sheer coincidence..?! Read on and make
up your own mind:
Now this is where things get totally
eerie:
The most recognized symbol for the US,
after the stars & Stripes, is the
Eagle. The following verse is taken
from the Quran, the Islamic holy book:
"For it is written that a son of Arabia
would awaken a fearsome Eagle. The
wrath of the eagle would be felt
throughout the lands of Allah and lo,
while some of the people trembled in
despair still more rejoiced: for the
wrath of the Eagle cleansed the lands
of Allah and there was peace."
That verse is number 9.11 of the Quran.
Still unconvinced about all of this..?!

P15 ata ung fee papunta. wala nmang alon and malamig ung hangin.

tpog pagdating namin ng Samal island, entrance fee naman. d ko lang alam kung magkano. take note, kung mei dala kayong food & drinks, kailangan nyo bayaran yun para mapasok nyo.. haha. sorry na lng. hehe. paglapag ng mga gamit sa table, ang una namin hinanap... yung booth ng pang-scuba diving!!! wuhooo!!! hehehe.
together with my sis and her bf, nagpa-reserve kme ng 1PM then bumili rin kme ng disposable underwater camera. P800 ung cam, P900 ung scuba equipment rental. since maaga pa, balik kami sa rented table namin then waited for the food while nagswimming na mga pamangkin ko.
here are some of the pictures of our scuba diving adventure:
before diving:ayan. bago lumusong, practice muna kami kung pano huminga using the oxygen tank. take note, ang hirap tumayo!! lalo na pag tinatamaan ka ng alon, ma-out of balance ka. kaya ang sabi sken, dpat naka-kuba ka para ma-maintain yung balance.
...nga pla, ang hirap huminga dun pg first time!!! d ko ma-maintain ung breathing rhythm ko ng ayos. palibhasa excited na kinakabahan. hahaha
underwater with my sister:here's a picture underwater together with my sister. obviously, ako yung naka-grey shirt at mukhang punong-puno ng oxygen yung bibig ko. wahahaha.
me with diving instructor:waahahaha. bakit ako nkahawak sa goggles ko? pano b nman!!! maluwag!! everytime na mag-exhale ako, yung bubbles tumatama sa goggles ko and coz of that, parang matatanggal goggles ko! kaya lageng nakahawak. ahahaha. olats. ahehehe.

pagpasok na pagpasok ng park, ang makikita eh mga bilihan ng souvenirs at fruits. pero we decided na bago na lng umalis ng venue kami tumingin dun... then, pinuntahan na mismo namin ung lugar kung san nandun yung mga eagles. pagpunta dun, panibagong bayad na nman.. haaaai.. ewan kung magkano. while waiting, nandun kme tumambay sa mei mga chairs sa labasan nung pinaka-center, mei lawin na agad dun, his/her name is Alex. takot pa nga ako dahil walang tali or cage. basta nandun lng sya sa isang kahoy. then napansin ko na lng na putol ung left wing nya. according to the caretakers, binaril pala si Alex before mapunta sa kanila... aww.. too bad. bait pa nman. sarap nga iuwi kung pwde eh. hehe.
then pumasok na kme and we were told na papanuorin munanng video... ampf! ang boring nung video. nde naman talaga tungkol sa eagles & kite (english ng lawin, hehe). tungkol sa paninira ng tao sa nature.. kaya, iniwan namin. ahaha. buti mei guide dun, sbi namin kung pwde na kme umikot. yun, sinamahan nya kami...
d lang eagles & kites meron dun, mei mga deer, monkeys, crocodiles, etc. nakita ko rin dun sila PAGASA(philippine eagle) pati na yung mga iba pa. ang laki!!! FYI, ang eagles pala 8x mas malinaw ang mata compared sa tao & they can magnify their vision 3x. hayip! parang camera, pwde pang mag-zoom. hehe. kaya pala magaling sila manguha ng makakain nila.
after the tour, lumabas na kami.. then pinuntahan yung mga souvenir/fruit stands. then my very first encounter of the durian!!! hahaha. ano lasa? uhmm... mahirap i-describe. tikman nyo na lng! hehe.
then mei nakita kaming ahas!!! hehe. well, alaga naman sya. take note, hinawakan ko!! wuhoo! tapos, nag-gayahan na yung mga kasama ko. ahehe. obvious bang mga takot kami? sa buntot lang kami nakahawak eh. ahehehe. ok naman. mabait rin nman kse yung ahas. ganun pala feeling nun. hehe.
ano pa, hmm. maganda dito, ala lng akong ma-post na picture nung mga agila & lawin dahil d ko pa na-download from my mobile phone... pero maganda talaga! educational ;)
