                    [Summary] => Authorities are watching several places in the country including the 32,000-hectare Candaba swamp in Pampanga as a possible breeding ground for the dreaded bird flu virus. The Candaba swamp is a bird sanctuary where thousands of birds particularly from China migrate to escape the cold winter months. Migratory birds carrying the bird flu virus could infect chicken and other poultry in other provinces near Pampanga, and could pose a threat to the poultry industry in the country.

                    [Summary] => At the rate all the fixed line companies are pumping money to develop broadband, it’s just a matter of time before they can deliver ultra high speeds and bandwidth to the consumer. In Japan for example, delivering 50 megabits of bandwidth to a computer is standard. At this level of speed and capacity, telecom companies can provide consumers with hundreds of video channels in high resolution. Imagine your telephone line transforming into your cable provider but with better quality and interactivity.
