the bomb rendered everything moot. so maybe it's a toss-off in post WW2 work: japanese occupation and korea for macarthur, european reconstruction for marshall.

The Mossad - the inside stories

 

For those who like spy books, this is a great reak. The exploites of the Mossad. There success and there failures. A real page turner.

 

> the kidnapping of Adolf Eichman in Argentina

> the perfect spy - well almost; mossad agent who almost became Syria's minister of Defence

> How they stole the plans for the mirage planes. They had to because of the French embargo of offensive weapons even if they had paid it already.

> How a French fleet of warship was hijacked from its most secure harbor.

> how a beautiful jewish Mata Hari inspires an Arab air ace to defect with his ultra secret Russian MIG.

> How they planted a bomb inside the cellphone of the chief bomb maker of PLO. Blew his head off.

great book!

how a female mossage agent convinced iraqi pilot munir redfa to defect with his mig-21 ---the first mig-21 to fall in western hands.

eli cohen (your perfect spy), along with sorge, is one of the greatest spies of the 20th century.

the story of the swiss engineer, alfred fraunknekke(sp?) and the theft of the plans for the mirage was funny.

excellent observation. when dealing with small numbers, percentages hardly matter. just this: UP is not long into ECE compared with most other schools. but its passing rate has always been among the highest.

from the atenista.net forums:

april 2006 ECE board - ateneo de manila 3/7 42.8%, UP 9/9 100%

november 2005 ECE board - ateneo de manila 57%, UP 95%

november 2003 ECE (ateneo's first board year) - ateneo de manila 18/20 90%, DLSU 46/74 62%, UP 18/18 100%

yes may ece na sa admu, may mga cadet engineers kami ngayun. pero di ko maconfirm yung 53% passing rate nila sa board exam

selected results from the November ECE Board Exam Results published by the PRC. look it up.

UP/ 34 EXAMINEES/ 31 PASSERS/ 91% PASSING RATE

ATENEO/ 44 EXAMINEES/ 25 PASSERS/ 57.00% PASSING RATE

DLSU/ 77 EXAMINEES/ 55 PASSERS/ 71.00% PASSING RATE

UST/ 120 EXAMINEES/ 76 PASSERS/ 63.00% PASSING RATE

MAPUA/ 232 EXAMINEES/ 73 PASSERS/ 31.00% PASSING RATE

Really? Is that a fact?

the 50s passing rate? it's been like that for at least three ECE board exams now.

for engineering, ateneo de manila. with tuition fees like what they have and they can't do better than a 57% board passing rate? talo pa sila ng PUP-taguig.

what space between the cores??

This is WWII?

herbert enlisted during the korean war. he became the youngest and most decorated master sergeant in the US army. he became an officer and faught in vietnam beginning as a major.

actually, his working class background was the basis for that robert de niro movie "the deer hunter".

99 and i hated it.

the VIP room in victoria court pasig has a big ceiling mirror (good for the girl to see herself being banged), a mirror on the facing wall (watch yourself f**king her dog-style) and of course, a dresser (where you can rear-entry her in a standing position and force her to watch herself).

Cafe Adriatico's Chicken Kiev (at remedios circle). ask MTC's miss ______ whom i dated there.

80s was the best era? garbage from europe flooded the american (and consequently, asian) music scene.

for TV - 50s

for music - 60s

for technology - 90s

the 80s was noted only for the rise of the personal computer (not to mention Japan, inc.)

karate, boxing, judo and free-style wrestling are still the best to me. for weapons fighting, arnis and western fencing.

si MA.

saving money, objectivsm and the one world order.

there were a number of times when i wished me and my SEB partner were being filmed. the best was in a VIP room in VC-pasig. sayang.

a company is not obligated to teach an employee what he should do to his money. after all, that money now belongs to the employee. the two parties no longer have any obligations to each other.

playing purely on the mental aspect of it, a 13th month pay is designed to 'clean-up' a professional's personal financial condition at the end of each year. this is with the belief the he spent one whole year struggling to make ends meet. the fact that the holiday season coincides with the calendar year-end is neither here nor there.

as to financial rewards, it doesn't matter whether you give it lump at year-end or distributed throughout the year. it's present value is included in the computation for an employee's total package.

sometimes, i half-expect being caught on camera. wouldn't it be fun to accidentally see yourself on the mass media?

um, you've got a point but it's the girl's wish. for my part, ain't too warm on the idea.

in QC:

tomas morato - katre, mario's, alfredo's steakhouse

ABS-CBN loop - chibo, the cork

bohol avenue - melos

hmmmm which reminds me.... may nabasa ako sa ibang thread about opening locked doors ng CR sa motels... pano nga ba gawin yun? hehe la lang

that must have been me

i love to 'crash' into a showering beauty. remember that bathroom door knobs have different locks from doors in other parts of the house. it's a NOMINAL lock. someone from outside has to be able to get in in case of an emergency (like the user slips or suffers a heart attack). the door knob has no keyhole. it's just a blank slot that you can unlock using a small coin or a screwdriver.

what surpises me is a lot of ladies don't know this. as soon as i hear them turn on the shower, i undress, unlock the door and enter.

"EEEEEEEIIIIHHHH! ... paano mo nabuksan yan?"

in today's sophisticated world of wireless long-distance business and sex, did it ever occurr to anyone that an 8,000/month gross starting for a 21-year-old who lives less than 5 kilometers from the office is a gold-mine better than 3 good SEB's in a month?

assume you ride public, pack your own lunch, you don't spend that much on texting (one card every 30 days max) or internet, no weekly gimmicks, movies at most one every month, restaurant dining once every 2 months, no new clothes and shoes every month:

the 8,000/month nets 6,640 a month. your monthly living expenses will be less than 4,000. if you can save 2,000 every month for the next 30 years into a time deposit account, how much would you have saved by the time you're 51?

following that lifestyle for the next 30 years, you'll have more than 1.28 million by 2033 which, at a 5% discount rate, would be worth 296,000 in today's value.
