In the pageant, top five candidates that include Piatti were given the same question which is “How do you describe a world-class Kagay-anon?” and here where this year’s Miss CDO visibly excelled.

“As we all know, Cagayan is known to be the pride of white-water rafting. We have different tourist destinations that we could be proud over the whole world but one thing that we can truly be proud of are the qualities that the true Kagay-anon has,” she answered.

She then continued her answer by enumerating the qualities she believed have made a world-class MISS CAGAYAN DE ORO. Candidate no. 5 Amadea Lucia Piatti reacts after Kagay-anon.

Stories Straight From the Art

by Xyla Mercedita E. Gualberto, Contributor

“Eagle, kasi nakakalipad siya at natatanaw niya lahat ng bagay. Gaya niya, gusto ko rin matanaw ang mundo”, says Cokie, a 15year old Sendong survivor, when asked what his life symbol is.

Just like Cokie, most artists take inspiration from one's dreams and aspirations to create masterful art pieces.

That is why Ms. Rosalie Zerrudo, facilitator of the Arts and Handicrafts, Environment and Art Workshop held at Xavier Ecoville on August 11 to 13, opens her sessions by encouraging her participants to share pieces of their life story among one another.

“Your story is your legacy to the world,” she says -- a legacy worth sharing through art forms.

The participants take pieces of scrap cloth to create artworks with the following themes: life before, during and after Sendong.

As they stitch and cut, they share their individual experiences- some with a dose of drama, some with a punch of humor.

A mother shares the tragic tale of losing her 8-year old daughter;

The CAGAYAN de ORO TIMES

another woman shares of her new found friends at an evacuation center.

Lives intertwined.

Individual stories made one.

Meanwhile, the younger participants are making mandala artworks, a type of artwork expressing what is within a person and manifesting it outside, through communal and concrete artwork.

As they share their life symbols to the group and make their mark in the mandala art, they get a better grip of the meaning of one’s life experiences -- such as that of Sendong and its relation to the environment.

The children and youth now take organic materials and create pictures of birds, trees, mountains and people as they interpret an environmental story through their own artworks.

The activity, called Kanta-Storya, speak of their relationship with Mother Earth and how human race can both be the destroyer and savior of the Earth’s existence.

With what they have been through coupled with their inventive nature, they are able to create works

rks ho p Te en Vis ua l Ar ts Wo

of art that unleash their artistic skills and deepen their appreciation of the environment.

Through the art workshop, they are able to share their community’s story – a story of environmental respect and healing. Every shape and color speaks of the community’s rich history, hopeful present and bright future.

Through art, Cokie’s life story and those of the other participants can now f ly like an eagle. They can reach other communities and inspire people with their sense of hope and resilience.

The art workshops are

initiated by the Xavier Center for Culture and the Arts (XCCA) through its program Sining Galing, a Xavier Ecoville Arts Program for the Youth.

It is funded by the National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA) through its Cultural Education Committee's Bugkusan.

Sining Galing will run from August to November this year. The program also offers recurring workshops on: cultural dance, children and teen’s theater, guitar, teen chorale, photography, visual arts and storytelling.

SAN AGUSTIN. A native of North Africa, Augustine of Hippo came to be known as the first Doctor of the Church.

He was an intellectual who made the risky travel to Rome to look for bright students to teach. He found them there, but realized that their morals left much to be desired. He instead taught rhetoric in Milan. There, he converted to the news religion. He became famous for his prayer, "Lord, make me chaste, but not yet. He returned to North Africa after his mother died and stayed there for the rest of his life as one of the most eloquent philosophers of the Church. He was already a Bishop when he died in the Year of out Lord 430.

s part of the educational fiesta set by this year’s fiesta committee, headed by Ms. Eileen San Juan, 18 giant icons were strolled in some parts of CDO during the Higalas Parade conducted on August 27, 2013, the day before the fiesta proper.

These introduced icons represent those important cultural and religious figures that have been part of the city’s past and rich heritage.

First two represented icons were the male and female Higaonons. They symbolize the original and first residents of the city and considered as forefathers of the city people.

Next was Datu Salangsang. He is a Higaonon leader who ruled the river communities in which the city rooted from.

There was also an icon of Augustinian Recollect Fray Agustin de San Pedro. Way back, he is the one who established the town now called Cagayan de Oro City.

San Agustin’s icon followed. He is the first city doctor and the city’s patron saint.

The icon of San Agustin’s mother, Santa Monica was also paraded. She is the patron saint of abused women. Icon of Birhen sa Cota, the defender in times of disaster and calamity, also graced the parade.

Followed after the female icons was Tirso Neri, a revolutionary leader and the first mayor of Cagayan de Misamis, the city’s old name. He served as mayor during 1901-1903 and also the one who opened the streets of current Divisoria.

Colonel Apolinar Velez’ icon was also displayed.

In history, he led the Filipinos during the Battle of Makahambus that resulted in the victory of the Filipinos.

Archbishop Santiago Hayes, SJ, followed Colonel Velez. He is a Jesuit who rebuilt the city of Cagayan de Oro after the World War II. Icons of Ronaldo Tiano, Nestor Tiano and Apollo Tiano were also exhibited. They fought the Japanese way back the old times and were considered as war heroes. They are also known as the Tiano Brothers.

Next in line was the icon of Maximo Suniel, the last mayor when Cagayan de Oro is still a municipality and he is also the first city mayor. He served from year 1948 to 1953.

The icon of country’s seventh vice president Emmanuel Pelaez was also paraded. He is known to be the public servant who authored the city charter.

He also served the country from 1961-1965.

Along with these icons, giant figures of the farmer and fisher folk of Cagayan de Oro were also exposed.

They are considered as heroes who sustain and supply food for the city residents.

Last paraded was the emblem of the City Tourism, the white-water rafter. This icon is the only contemporary figure displayed. It represents the city people’s resiliency over “Sendong” days.

According to San Juan, this Higalas parade is one of the features of the Kagay-an Festival dubbed as Higalaay. The purpose of this is to relive in the mind of young city individuals and to typical residents as well about the old Cagayan de Oro and also the heroes who fought for the city.

78 contingents from different schools and offices in the city joined the parade. It started 7am at Rodelsa Circle, this city. It paused at the Kiosko Kagawasan for the presentation, and ended at the Limketkai East Canopy, in front of the East Concourse.

ARCH. SANTIAGO HAYES, S.J.

HIGAONON TRIBE

SANTA MONICA. Santa Monica, mother of San Agustin, is a saint revered for her patience. A devout religious woman, she was given, through an arranged marriage, to a pagan who was ill-tempered and whose mother made life for the young wife a challenge. Santa Monica endured in her prayerful and acts of charity. Her two other children, a boy and a girl, entered the religious life. Even her husband and mother-in-law were eventually baptized. But it took 17 years before she was to convince her firstborn, Agustin, to become a Christian. She never ceased in her prayers and offerings.

She is said to have shed tears for her son every night, prompting a bishop to tell her, "The son of those tears shall not perish." When San Agustin finally relented_after having female lovers and a son by one of them_and was baptized

by St. Ambrose n Milan, she said that her soul was now at peace and that she was ready to die. She passed away afterwards.

is my student.

Aside from teaching the technicalities of singing another influence that I’m giving my students is setting myself as an example.

Coming in on time for classes, to set a as an example that we have o respect each other’s time.

At times I invite them to watch my public performances too, to let them take a glimpse of the realities of being a singer.

Standing in front of people is not easy at first but it will become manageable in the long run.

Helping them conquer their stage fears is also one of my challenges and my presence or preparing them in their different performances gives them the assurance that I support each of them.

I am doing this because somehow I am also responsible for shaping up the next generation. Honestly speaking I wouldn’t want any kid to follow Miley Cyrus. Try to imagine if Miley was your sister, knees or perhaps your daughter.

How would you feel looking at her performance during the VMA’s? When can you really say too much is too much?

Cyndi Lauper even said in one of her interviews...”there’s no art in what Miley did”.

We may have different views on her performance but the reality of the message will always be true ... PARENTS... you Jhave ULY the greater responsibility in influencing your child’s life.

If you don’t influence now while your child is still younger it might be too late years from now.

Talent is never enough as I have said many times in my previous write ups.

Talent and right attitude is not even enough yet, “talent, skill, right attitude and having a good heart”, the complete package that a singer or any musician should aspire to acquire.

“Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old he will not depart from it.” – Proverbs 22:6

AU GU ST JUL Y -

ew days ago during the fiesta celebration of our city, one of my students got invited to perform as front act for a telecommunications group promotion at a mall.

The crowd was more than a thousand but this Seven year old girl stood up with confidence and sang her heart out .As the production director held her hand in cue for her to go up stage I felt the butterflies in my stomach as if I am the one going up there.

This was not the first time seeing her up stage with a huge crowd but I can’t help myself to feel the tension. When she started singing and getting her high notes correctly then I started to loosen up and continued to observe her on stage.

I couldn’t help but thank God for the confidence and endurance that He gave her despite having fever the past days.

Although she had a rough preparation because of her health by God’s grace she was able to perform very well.

I am not just amazed of her talent but more of the attitude she has even at a very young age. It is indeed a privilege to train a child whose passion keeps her moving even during tiring lessons and long rehearsals.

Yes at times she doesn’t want to practice but her mom reminds her of her priorities.

The mommy tells me she has to understand that becoming a good singer requires hard work and discipline.

It doesn’t come automatic, no good musician become such without years of training and hard work. Some may say, she’s just a kid... yes she is but don’t you think it’s best to train while she is still young.Why? Its honing raw talent and discipline can be deeply inculcated in her. It just seems like yesterday when we started the training but looking at her now she’s growing up fast and soon I know somehow she will be on her own as a singer.

I’m looking forward to that day when I can hear her somewhere and tell myself that

The Art of Pressure “Someone’s breathing down my neck”, ever got that feeling?

At one point in our lives, I guess we’ve all experienced this. Pressures are part of our lives – like it or not.

Just like in sports, when it boils down to the closing seconds – and you need to take that shot, all pressure is on your shoulders. This can only go either way – you make it or break it.

What takes that pressure off? It’s after you make that shot. Make it or break it – the pressure is off, making way for a new pressure.

The best thing about pressure is when your brain keeps on working and cannot stop thinking, looking for an opening… an opportunity, looking for that perfect timing and balance, then you shoot.

Intr The famous shoe company tagline “Just Do It” has always been at the intima back of the minds of athletes and Your

even entrepreneurs and businessmen.

Taking risks, ceasing the moment – and momentum.

Family, friends and colleagues are good company in times of pressurer.–Rey D. Gal of h they help us keep thinking to get D our jobs done.

Let’s all cherish the people around us (perhaps, our enemies even) and keep our heads up, maybe we can make this world a better place that way.

Sleeping the Night

ast week, I discussed in capsule form inflammation of the pancreas leading to pancreatitis, particularly as related to alcohol intake.

I forgot to mention that it became the topic of choice as, a week before that, a friend of mine related to me his neighbour having been admitted comatose and eventually never waking up from the deep slumber, with only a history of having indulged in a drinking binge hours before it happened. And guess what?

The patient was only 25 years of age. No previous history of any illnesses or hospital admissions.

The question in the minds of the family that begs to be answered, was, what could have caused the death of the patient? Was it pancreatitis or something else? I had no answer to them, for, if they had agreed to an autopsy, we would have found the answer.

It is said that the dead teaches the living. It is only upon the study of the patient’s body after his/her demise that we can truly find the answers as to what happened.

There are certain conditions that will require an autopsy in order to come out with a diagnosis that is beyond question. And, there are also deaths that we may not be able to totally explain. One such dilemma is that which is known as “Bangungot”. I remember that way back in 2002; this made headlines when a young actor died while on vacation. And his cause of death was said to be bangungot,

T

health IN focus

by Dr. Mary Jean Loreche

also known in the Medical field as Sudden Unexpected Death Syndrome (SUDS) or Sudden Unexpected Nocturnal Syndrome (SUNDS). To others, this is even equated with acute hemorrhagic pancreatitis. But, recent studies have shown that, bangungot, has something to do with problems relating to a person’s heart rhythm.

Newer terminologies are coined for this sudden death- there is the Brugada syndrome, as well as the QT Syndrome. Where, myths abound claiming that bangungot patients are visited by “ not like us “, causing a nightmare leading to one’s death, medical science has it that, this is a genetically inherited disorder affecting the cardiac ion channels , which in turn causes the arrhythmias ( or irregularities in the heart beat ). This could be the reason, why the patient sleeps through the night, never to wake up and see the sun again.

It is not uncommon to hear that victims of this particular

POINTS OF VIEW

condition have had a history of having gone to bed after a full meal (which is usually carbohydrate rich), accompanied with alcohol intake. Males, in their 20’s to 40”s , healthy, with no previous history of illness, are commonly affected. It is said that in the Philippines, bangungot affects 43 /100,000 per year. Problem only, is the documentation on whether it is caused by acute hemorrhagic pancreatitis or if it is the ventricular arrhythmias, as it would have required an autopsy on the said cases.

Are there preventive measures to ensure that one doesn’t fall into this? If we are to base it on the researches made, then, it would be to one’s best interest if, you are a male ages 20-40’s , to have a medical check up( an ECG and blood tests to include amylase and lipase ), more so, if one has a positive family history of one said to have died in his sleep.

After a heavy meal to give your body at least 2 hours lag time prior to going to bed. This is consistent with what we know as good practice, allowing food to settle in and the blood flow to be redirected from the stomach back to the other organs of the body. Or, better still, take a light meal and avoid alcoholic binges especially during night time.

Sleeping the night unafraid, hopeful for another brand new day when the morn comes, to do good not only for one ’s self, but for others too.

How Not to Go Viral on the Internet

he internet is rife with photos and videos of ordinary people going viral.

While some of them have been catapulted to stardom and became overnight internet sensations, most have become subjects of ridicule and cyber bullying. The good news is, it could be you. And the bad news is, yes it could be you too.

But first, let us clarify what going viral on the internet means. It's when a photo or video becomes immensely popular through constant sharing in social media, emails, and other sites.

I'm pretty sure you have seen a few, and I bet you couldn't resist the urge to click like and share too. But what happens if you find yourself the object of the said (unwanted) attention? If it's going to bring you fame and fortune, why not, right? But if it's the other way around, then thanks but no thanks.

Here's how to avoid being an online laughingstock or an object of internet ire and mockery.

1.Be careful what you post!

Rule of thumb: If you think your mom is going to get disappointed (or worse, get a heart attack) when she sees that photo or video, better think twice before posting it. Anything you post in any social media can be grabbed, copied via screenshot or downloaded regardless of the privacy settings. So that godawful

The Silver Lining

by Janey Montebon Duterte

singing you posted as a joke, it could make the internet rounds quickly and could get you labeled a lot of hair-raising names.

2.Act like a civilized human being in public.

If you suddenly had a strong urge to lash out in obscene levels of anger while in public, please, stop yourself. Anyone around you could be holding a smartphone and filming you as you go berserk.

Before you know it, you've got a whole new Facebook page solely dedicated to bashing you.

On the other hand, if somebody films you while doing something particularly remarkable, it could open a lot of doors for you too.

(Remember the elevator girl and how she suddenly became the poster girl for being happy at work?)

3.Keep your passwords safe.

Every now and then netizens erupt in fury over something

The CAGAYAN de ORO TIMES

someone was supposed to have said. Be it a degrading remark about Filipinos as a race or the Philippines as a country, these posts usually gets it to the top trends in Twitter. While some of those may have been actual sentiments of the account owner, several of them have been faked.

So the people you were bashing could actually be innocent victims.

Moral of the story, don't share your passwords and keep your social media accounts and emails safe. Otherwise, you could get crucified online and virtually burned at the stake by an angry mob of netizens for something you didn't actually do.

4.Put your best foot forward.

Your online persona is simply a reflection of real-life you. Make sure to let the world see your best side. Avoid unnecessary rudeness, stupid remarks and below the belt comments. Your comment, just like any other kinds of post, could catapult you to Internet Monster status with just a simple screenshot.

Remember, when it comes to the internet, not all kinds of publicity is good publicity. The worst kind could ruin a person's life. BUT – when used the right way, it could lead you to unprecedented levels of success too. Like any double-edged sword, use the internet wisely.

Over a Cup of Coffee Agri story:

by Louise Dumas

piece of land which they communally tilled. Their bayanihan was not the usual community farming, however. “Some of us would guard the area while some are working on the land. The military had also issued arms to those of us who have reached college level so we could serve as the frontline during the attacks.”

From a communal lot where they cultivated corn, their bayanihan efforts have now expanded to include cash crops, the most successful of them their coffee plantations.

Previously only promoted as a diversification crop, it is slowly replacing the community’s sugarcane plantations which the farmers have scaled down due to its high labor input and fluctuating price.

With an income ranging from P60,000-P80,000 for a hectare of coffee trees, Mr. Dagohoy had been able to send all his children to good universities all over Mindanao. His eldest child has recently graduated from Management Accounting, another child already working as automotive mechanic in Cebu, one reviewing to take the board as an electrical engineer later this year. “I only have one child left in school who is taking up computer engineering,” he proudly said.

The produce of the community primarily goes to Nestle Philippines, Inc. which has a buying station in Valencia and a coffee and milk factory in Cagayan de Oro City. The community,

assistant manager of the café. “The lowest income we have is around P500.

We earn a lot when we are contracted to serve during meetings of the LGU and other government units.”

Although accepting from independent coffee sellers, Kape Maramag gets their regular supply from the barangays of La Roja, Bagong Silang, Panadtalan and Buya in Maramag.

“The main reason for setting up this collaboration was to offer the coffee growers high buying prices comparable to the big companies such as Nestle,” Ms. Ngujo said. “The usual problem

of the farmers is that come harvest season, they have a lot of debts and their income could not make up for it since the buying price of the middle men is so low. It is also not economically viable for some of them to still go to Valencia or Cagayan de Oro to sell coffee because of the transportation expenses.”

Kape Maramag has already sent coffee to Denmark, Canada, Australia and Singapore through personal connections and links established by the local government unit of Maramag.

The kiosk is managed by members of the Rural Improvement Club of the municipality. A kilo of mixed blend goes for P300 while 50g P25.

“Sometimes we could reach an income of P3,000 in a day,” said Nancy B. Ngujo,

through the BMMPC, usually consolidates their harvest and sells in bulk to be able to get more incentives from the buyer and at the same time cut on the expenses of transporting individually. Grade 1 beans can range from P92.50 to P94.50, P10 higher if they sell it to middle men. In the first quarter of the year, they were able to sell 26 tons to Nestle. The company is now aiding the community to set up a nursery and provide them with technical expertise.

Another coffee-growing community in Bukidnon which primarily sells to Nestle is Barangay Bagong Silang in the municipality of Maramag.

“The income from coffee and sugarcane is more or less the same,” said Ceriaco C. Luminarias, a coffee-grower from Barangay Bagong Silang.

“You need to replace sugarcane every after harvest. The coffee tree, on the other hand, is forever.

As long as you maintain it so that it bears fruit and doesn’t die, you will earn from it periodically.”

Luminarias has been a coffee grower since 1974.

One hectare of his trees could yield up to 2,500 kilos. Once, the coffee peaked at the price of P115 per kilo. “I immediately bought a multicab that would be able to help me with the transportation of the coffee,” he said, adding that a big chunk of the family income relies on coffee trading.

carabao-pulled cart lumbers slowly down the muddy lane at the break of dawn. A horse stops in the middle of its tracks, distracted by a patch of grass below a dilapidated fence. The idle start of the day in this remote village of Pigtauranan in Pangantucan, Bukidnon is far from the terror the community was subjected to in the 1980s.

“There was a time when we could not go to our farms any time we wanted to,” said Jaime Y. Dagohoy, one of the directors of the Bayanihan Millennium Multi-Purpose Cooperative in Pigtauranan.

“The military had gathered all of us to the center of the barangay to isolate the NPA [New People’s Army] and stop the people from providing them with resources. It was difficult for us to be caught between the two groups. We could not avoid the rebels because we lived and farmed in the area.”

In addition to the danger of being caught in the cross-fire between the government forces and the NPA, there was also the presence of bandits in the area who attacked farmers working alone.

Today, they can now look back at these horror stories without worry.

“Instead of succumbing to the fear of these armed groups, we formed a group to do bayanihan. This is where our cooperative took its name,” said Mr. Dagohoy.

Simple Ways to Protect Your Privacy Online

T

oday's online thieves or social engineers are becoming more sophisticated in illegally obtaining sensitive information on the Internet, including passwords, credit card numbers and other confidential data. Thankfully, there are practical steps you can take as a regular netizen to ensure effective online data security and management, without having to resort to a high-tech security infrastructure.

Sleep better at night by following these simple online protection steps: 1. Never ever, ever share your passwords. This guideline applies to everyone and anyone you can possibly think of, including your significant other, siblings, parents, close friends and other meaningful persons in your life. The less people who know about your passwords, the better, especially since they themselves can equally become targets of malicious individuals.

2. Don't click that link.

At the very least, think twice before you do. In the past, hapless individuals have fallen prey to virus attacks and phishing activities, that all began with a simple click of a link from a seemingly harmless or unknown sender. Just Google "I Love You virus" and see how this worm wrought worldwide online havoc in May 2000, because people who clicked its link didn't know any better back then. Bottomline, think before you click.

3. Know the mind of a social engineer. Online thieves commonly use simple social methods intended to manipulate their target victims. Their evil scheme usually begins with a phone call, a fake e-mail or a misleading social network message. Foil their plan by choosing with great care, who to trust online and by being very discriminating on whom to entrust your confidential information.
