Surf Etiquette - How to handle your surfboard and not piss anybody off.

All around the world the rules of surfing are the same. These rules are known as “surf etiquette”. Some breaks (or great surfing locations) have the surf etiquette on signs or plaques displayed prominently before you get in the water.

In this day and age of increasing “rage” with everything, there is even surf rage. Be respectful of the universal surf etiquette code to save yourself many unpleasantries.

No one wants to wear a surfboard in the face. No one wants to wait ages for the perfect wave to have to get off to prevent themselves plowing into someone dropping in or not knowing what they are doing. No one wants to be beaten up in the parking lot for infuriating a local by dropping in (see below for definition) on their wave. No one wants to get their surfboard dinged by some novice who doesn’t know what they are doing. No one wants to go to prison for committing surf rage, either.

The rules have been invented to try and keep everyone safe, and also to make it fairer. Some surfing breaks enforce the rules more than other places. If you are at a new break take a minute to observe the locals.

Right of Way.

The surfer on the wave who is closest to the breaking edge has right of way. This means that the wave is theirs. Unless they fall off their surfboard, or pull out of the wave, they have priority, or right of way. To put it simply, if there is already a surfer on their feet on their surfboard closest to where the wave is breaking, you can’t surf that wave. The wave is already taken.

Dropping In.

Never, ever, drop in on another surfer’s wave. This is considered the most heinous of surfing crimes. If there is someone on the wave already you cannot just hop on the wave in front of them. This is what is known as dropping in. Committing this surfing crime could result in your surfboard being banged up, the other surfer surfing over the top of you, the surfer having to pull off his wave, causing major fury, and more often than not, you having to endure surf rage. If you do not want to be abused physically or verbally do not drop in on another surfer, ever.

When you drop in on another surfer all the other surfers can see you and they will all have a terrible impression of you. There is no excuse, ever.
Getting Back Out.

When you are paddling back out to the break (where the good waves are), you need to keep out of the way of surfers. Other surfers do not want to lose their wave so as to not ride their surfboard over the top of you. You need to paddle behind where they are surfing and not get in their path. You will be paddling through more white water, but everyone has to do it.

Sharing.

Some surf breaks have more aggressive local surfers than others. Locals have a right to surf their own break. Visitors should respect any local customs as well as the universal surfing etiquette. Visitors are entitled to surf the waves as well, but care should be taken to not antagonize the locals. Sharing and respect will result in you being accepted by the locals and having a more pleasant surfing experience.

Control Your Surfboard.

An out of control surfboard can create a lot of damage, both to yourself, other surfers, and their surfboards. When you are paddling out to the break you need to hang on to your board. This is for 2 reasons. Firstly, so as you don’t injure anyone paddling behind you, and secondly, you will get out the back (where the good waves are breaking), quicker if you maintain control of your surfboard. You will only be forgiven for letting go of your surfboard if it looks like you will meet your death being wiped out otherwise.

Only self centered bastards ride a surfboard without a surfboard leash in crowded environments.

Remember, respect in the water goes a long way. Treat the other surfers how you would like to be treated yourself.

In this guide you will learn exactly what type of surfboard is perfect for you. We will help you pick the length, width, thickness, shape, fin setup… I think you get the point.

Things i totally appreciate even more when i have had enough to drink:

• the millions of tiny little bright lights in the dark. does anyone know what i’m talking about?? they’re sooo pretty, floating around. it makes me just want to bawl my eyes out *takes a sip of vodka*

• having two hands is so great. that way when you’re so drunk that you’re throwing up all over the place, you have two hands to pull your hair back and make sure that those nasty little chunks of whatever you ate that night don’t get stuck in your hair.

• Bathrooms. The drunkard’s sanctuary. What would we ever do without it?

• being sober.  need i say more?

HOW ABOUT YOU? WHAT DO YOU APPRECIATE WHEN YOU’RE ALL LIQUORED UP?

“semana santa”, “holy week”, “mahal na adlaw” , vacation or whatever you want to call it.

Holy week (Latin: Hebdomada Sancta or Maior Hebdomada, “Greater Week”) in Christianity is the last week before Easter. It includes the religious holidays of Palm Sunday, Maundy Thursday (Holy Thursday) and Good Friday, and lasts from Palm Sunday (or in the East, Lazarus Saturday) until but not including Easter Sunday, as Easter Sunday is the first day of new season of The Great Fifty Days. It commemorates the last week of the earthly life of Jesus Christ culminating in his crucifixion on Good Friday and his resurrection on Easter

For most of us Holy Week, especially Catholic Filipino people, means personal sacrifices and of course, a grand vacation. Nothing wrong with that — I do that too. Since I am a Christian - Protestant (uccp). But allow me to share with you what I think makes this holy week so special for most of the people.

Jesus was the most precious possession in heaven. But because God loves us very much, he would rather die than live without us for eternity. In consequence, heaven went bankrupt just to gain me when He died a painful death on the cross — in my place. Because I am a sinner, it should have been me hanging on that cross. The sacrifice wasn’t mine to do, it’s for him to give. He did what I can’t do. He took on his shoulders what I can’t carry. But even if I’m the only sinner who lived on earth, he would still choose to become man and die on my place. That kind of love is unfathomable, how can I disregard it? The best part is, he did it while I am yet a sinner. He didn’t say, “Be good first before I rescue you”, rather he said, “I’m going to die for you not because you deserve it but because I love you”.

Now, replace the “I’s” and the “me’s” on that paragraph by your name. Read it, claim it as yours. You should, because that’s exactly what he did for you — personally. And that is the very essence of what we are celebrating this week.

The story doesn’t end on his death. On Sunday is Easter — the day where we remember his resurrection. He not only died in our place, he also lives to assure us of eternal life. We serve a risen Saviour!

You can make this Holy Week more memorable by accepting a saviour too eager to start a personal relationship with you. The Bible says, “Look! Here I stand at the door and knock. If you hear me calling and open the door, I will come in, and we will share a meal as friends” (Rev. 3:20). Why don’t you let him come in?
“For God so love the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believing in him should not perish but will have an everlasting life” — (John 3:16)

San Miguel beer has become one of the national icons of the Philippines. It was founded in 1890 as a brewery, the company has over 100 facilities in the Philippines, Southeast Asia, China and Australia. Filipinos would howl high and low when they see this national symbol abroad, as my friends do in HongKong, Singapore, Australia and especially Europe - - but where is the true origin of this beer being dubious?

Online forum is full of questions discussing the true origin of San Miguel beer. Europeans and Latinos would be under fire if they say that San Miguel is indeed a Spanish beer. But Filipinos would diligently counter-attack the statement saying otherwise. You would see how far they would go with their vigilance to protect their national icon!

Many people do not put much attention on the new label either because we’re used to the red and green fonts. Now it’s white-blue-silver. Anyways, who cares with the label.

Where is the true origin of San Miguel Beer?

Many rumors from Spanish people said – “it’s a Spanish beer“. Spain is Europe’s 3rd largest beer producer but next only to Germany and the UK and San Miguel is Spain’s biggest beer export! I guess everyone knew that this beer is produced in Malaga – that beautiful coastal city in Andalusia.

However, there’s a lot of versions relating to the origin of San Miguel Beer. Some says that the very first Philippine San Miguel beer was produced in Manila in 1890 by Spanish monks using traditional methods in a district called San Miguel according to records. Another version says it was first brewed by a German Brew Master using traditional Bavarian methods under a royal Spanish grant.

And the very first Spanish San Miguel beer was produced by San Miguel Fabricas de Cerveza y Malta S.A. in Malaga in 1957 (but why does it say 1516 on it’s label?).

….We got the answer!!! BUT… there’s a very big BUT!! …

Notice the logos on these two San Miguel beers.

See the difference? They got similar (but different) fonts. And notice the icons? The first one got a coat of arms and the other got a sailing galleon! See?

These San Miguel beers are obviously two different beers! And that’s the truth! Let’s not lie to ourselves. These beers are produced by two companies that doesn’t have anything to do with each other! We must Face it.

Nothing spells romance like the simplicity of a kiss. The anticipation of the first kiss, and the longing for the next. Even when we’ve kissed our lover countless times, we keep coming back for more.

3. Red Hot Kiss: Similar to the Hershey Kiss, but substitute a cinnamon candy or small breath mint instead.

4. Spiderman Kiss: Have your partner lean their head over the edge of the couch or a bed, then move in for an upside-down kiss. No mask required, but if you want to add a little role play- go for it!

5. Ross and Rachel: Grab your bes friends and go at it. That is if you are both available and have been pining for each other for years.

14. Marshmallow Kiss: Pretend your partner’s lips are spongy and sweet, then bounce a little off the texture while you are sampling the treat.

15. Red Licorice Kiss: Place one end of the licorice rope in your lover’s mouth and one end in yours. See who can nibble their way fastest to meet the other’s lips.

16. Lady and the Tramp Kiss: Same as the Red Licorice, but substitute a strand of spaghetti.

I have found men who didn’t know how to kiss. I’ve always found time to teach them. - Mae West

18. Irish Cream Kisses: Both you and your partner should swish a quarter shot of Irish Cream around, then swallow and lip-lock to savor the lingering taste in each other’s mouths. Swish again and repeat.

19. Tai Chi Kiss: Facing your partner, stand straight with feet parallel and shoulder width apart. Drop your shoulders and hold your head erect. Slowly move towards each other until your lips meet, then hold the pose while breathing in deeply and allowing a profound sense of tranquility flow through you.

28. Around the World Kiss: Gently lick your partner’s lips, tracing along the upper lip, then circling down around the lower one before fully engaging in a mouth to mouth session.

29. Say My Name Kiss: Use your tongue to spell out your partner’s name while French kissing. Guaranteed to break up your normal routine and add some interest to your normal routine. Add some fun by taking turns spelling out various things in the other’s mouth and see who can guess the most correctly.

30. Doggy-Style Kiss: Rub noses then give your partner a quick lick.

31. Hillbilly Kiss: Take a swig from your mason jar and smack your gums together. Keep your teeth in your pocket ’cause they’ll just get in the way. Afterwards give a whooping holler of “yee haw.”

32. Tomb Raider Kiss: Move in and steal a quickie before racing off to uncover fortunes beyond imagination while saving the world.

33. Sweetheart Kiss: Find your partner, and show them how much you care with the very best heartfelt kiss you can offer.

Try all the above throughout the month or try them all in one day. Either way, you’ll be sure to get a most pleasurable reaction from your partner and you may even find a new trick or two to continue to share.

A kiss may be just a kiss, but it never goes out style!

How do you recognize when you are in love.” Nor is it “what’s out there,” although people are always interested in reading about love and other people’s experiences with love. What people want to know is “how to find it?” Specifically, people want to know how to improve their love life, find love quickly and easily, increase their chances of finding their true love, and improving their ability to love.

People outlooks on life are changing the way the world is changing, not only with the way people perceive love but also with traditional meaning of how people look at love. People are changing the rules - and the knowledge of how people perceive love from every level of experience, from beginner to a person who has been in many relationships, is asking the same questions:

• How do you know when you are in love?
• What is and what is not true love?
• How can I find a person to love and share the rest of my life?
• Will true love come to me naturally?
• How can I build a relationship?

Love will not last a short period of time, but for a lifetime. Love is real. Many people experience love in their life. Love does not only exist in fairy tales with castles and horse carriages. True love has to do with people being honest, open, and loving with each other. Taking chances and not being afraid to love. Since ancient times, people have searched for the true meaning of love. Nevertheless, even the great philosophers, with their intuitive meanings of love, could not completely find the true meaning of love.
