A dose of the Great War: the story of an unsung guerilla (2)
2008-04-06 17:12:00 ?When Gen. MacArthur and his troops landed in Palo bay, several of us local guerillas paved the way for the Americans to attack Ormoc and recapture the valley. In my company, we were 50 and after three days of gunfire, our number was reduced to 29. But the reward was a swift victory. A few days later after the victory in Ormoc, a Japanese fleet was seen in the bay of Villaba and Palompon in the northwestern part of Leyte transporting soldiers from Luzon, but their reinforcement was too late. An allied fighter plane dropped several bombs on the fleet; the Japanese was caught by surprise attack, and so they had no other choice but to jump into the sea to survive.??I knew then that the war would not last for another ten years?we couldn?t afford to wait even for a year of pain and suffering. The war must be stopped. My best friend was killed when we were attacked in our barracks; he died on my arms. That was terrible, and sad. When he was dying, I did not say anything. I was silent unti...
A dose of the Great War: the story of an unsung guerilla
2008-04-04 14:51:00 The World War II was the bloodiest war in human history. Heroes were rewarded with their names written in history books. The villains were remembered as war criminals. But both of them were human slayers?in a sense they?re all criminals.But according to the definition of the heroes who wrote history from the perspective of the victor?they?re the saviours of humanity, and the villains the dark cloud that murdered innocent people both military and civilians.With this, one can only surmise on how to justify the hundreds of thousands of civilians who died during the bombing of Hiroshima (6 August 1945) and Nagasaki (9 August 1945) to force the surrender of the Japanese Imperial Army.The United States forces under the command of Gen. Douglas MacArthur and the Allied Forces were, according to most history textbooks, the heroes. And the villains were the infamous Nazi Adolf Hitler who murdered millions of Jews and Emperor Hirohito of Japan; the dark horse was Josef Stalin of USSR whose for...

Had I not followed my rules and scaled out of most things Ag, steel and coal...It might have been the best 5 day stretch ever.Since I spent the majority of the week talking about my results, I won't be arrogant and taunt you about it a second time. I'll just give you the short version. Just know that healthcare stocks (UNH & HUM), financials (BSC, LM, PFG, XL, AIG) and a few others (OEH, BMRN, BYI, HOLX, FSLR, ALXN) helped to boost my negative delta this week.You should also know that my commodity plays (GLD and UNG), energy plays (XTO, DVN, ECA, CHK, RRC) remaining metals plays (AEM, AKS) and a few others (POT, NEU, BUCY, CALM, NFLX) helped to boost my positive delta this week.What catapulted my results was my slight increase in position size (1% to 2%) and the unreal returns in UNH (+800%), HUM (+2000%) and BSC (450%). Why did I incre...
Find Out what you need to without Snooping and guerilla tactics.
2008-02-13 03:01:00 Find Out what you need to without Snooping Through Their Things.No matter how solid our relationships are, every one of us has had a moment in time where we doubt the honesty of our husband or wife. Usually such a feeling of distrust is brought about by a sudden change in behavior.Perhaps your loved one has suddenly lost weight, made new friends, or is staying out late after work. Maybe he or she seems to be taking more phone calls in private than usual, or just seems to be daydreaming more. Most of the time these are innocent changes that occur as part of the growing process, but they are certain to breed insecurity with the one left waiting at home.How can you find the answers without getting busted? As soon as questions arise about our husband or wife, we want answers – quickly. We need to put the fears to rest, or immediately confirm them so we can deal with the problem.One of the oldest forms of spying on a husband or wife has been the act of snooping through their belonging...
