Mountain resort have higher temperature averages

The Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) office here on Tuesday confirmed that this mountain resort will have higher temperature averages in the next few days due to the end of the northeasterly winds.

Wilson Locando, senior weather forecaster, said the easterly winds will have its advent during the middle of this week which will contribute to make temperatures here at the average of 15 to 27 degrees celsius.

Towards the end of the northeasterly winds affecting this part of the country, the PAGASA in the past three days still recorded cool 14 degrees celsius as the minimum temperature.

Locando said the cool temperature here even during the dry months of February to May make Baguio and suburbs as very attractive to visitors from the lowlands of the country whose temperatures have distinctly higher than these highlands of Cordilleras.

Meanwhile, the announcement of PAGASA on higher temperatures have prompted the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) to once again raise the vigilance of all its forest guards and the communities against forest fires.

Forest fires are most prevalent in the area from this month to the middle of May when the dried "fuel" (dried leaves, grass and twigs) within forested zones easily catch fire.

Iran will start exporting gas to Iraq

Iran will start exporting gas to Iraq within the next three months, Iranian Oil Minister Rostam Qasemi said on Sunday.

"The launch of gas exports will proceed by stages, First, gas will start to be supplied to Baghdad and then, within another three months, to Basra," official news agency IRNA quoted Qasemi as saying.

Fast Website Speed Affects Google Search Ranking

Over the course of 2009, a consistent theme that Google has been involved with is that of speed. In announcement after announcement, Google has talked about the importance of speed on the web, and how the company wants to do everything it can to make the web a faster place. Has it occurred to you that how fast your page loads may have a direct effect on how your site ranks in Google?  Don't worry, it hasn't had an impact...yet. In an interview with WebProNews , Google's Matt Cutts told us that speed may soon be a ranking factor.  "Historically, we haven't had to use it in our search rankings, but a lot of people within Google think that the web should be fast," says Cutts. "It should be a good experience, and so it's sort of fair to say that if you're a fast site, maybe you should get a little bit of a bonus. If you really have an awfully slow site, then maybe users don't want that as much." "I think a lot of people in 2010 are g...

Buried Treasures in Bohol Philippines

Written by Joe Espiritu       Four persons died in a treasure hunting accident last week. They died for nothing. Many had lost their shirts in the venture, the propensity for Filipinos to get rich quick attribute to the treasure hunting mania. The sad part is that only the ignorant venture on the search, those in the know, being sure that nothing will come out of the effort would not think of investing money, time and effort – this time lives – in a fruitless enterprise.        There had been stories of people getting rich uncovering treasure troves in unlikely places.

Those people may have struck it rich but not from some hidden riches. Contrary to what other people say, there are no buried treasures in Bohol . If there had been, they were unearthed years ago.         If one ...
