Studio Hybrid

Dell Studio HybridIt’s hard for us to recommend the Dell Studio Hybrid desktop for any practical purpose. As a desktop for productivity, you can get more bang-for-your-buck from a typical budget-priced midtower PC. And if your goal is either space-saving or using this system as a media PC, we’d instead point you to a similarly priced laptop, which has an integrated display, will perform most of the same functions, and is also portable. Still, we imagine that for some of you, the Studio Hybrid’s unique design holds plenty of appeal. Compared with other desktops in its small-scale cohort, Dell’s entry is actually one of the best equipped. If aesthetics are your chief concern, the Studio Hybrid will reward you with its good looks and respectable computing power.

If the Catholic bishops can be as passionate in fighting corruption as they are in opposing birth control, this predominantly Roman Catholic country will be a much better place. Think of the impact of an announcement from the Church that it will withhold Holy Communion from all the liars, cheats, thieves, murderers, rapists and the immoderately greedy in this government. Okay, that might decimate the ranks of the national leadership, and reduce the temporal power that the bishops love to wield in this country. But it could endear the bishops to more of the ordinary faithful Catholics who do not make a big show or pretense of piousness to earn brownie points with the Church. Instead the bishops are withholding communion from politicians who are supporting birth control and family planning, branding theme as “anti-life” and supporters of abortion. The Church must be taking pointers in intellectual dishonesty from this administration. Read the rest of this entry »

Remembering Ninoy…

In the quarter century since Benigno “Ninoy” Aquino Jr. was fatally shot on the tarmac of then Manila International Airport, almost every conceivable aspect has been written about his life, death and aftermath - good, bad, political, controversial, biased, investigatory- you name it. No conceivable angle could possible be new.

Notwithstanding, Enrich would be remiss if it did not honor Ninoy’s memory on the historical eve of his 25th death Anniversary this August 21, 2008. Plain and simple, Ninoy gave up seven otherwise quality years in the prime of his life, imprisoned in Manila in the ‘70s because he would not budge in iota on his convictions. In the end he made the ultimate sacrifice - in lieu of a peaceful and comfortable living on fellowship grants from two of America’s most prestigious universities, not to mention open-ended sanctuary in the United States, if he would have so chosen.

Throughout his three years in “self-exile” on American soil, Ninoy constantly insisted he would repatriate himself to his beloved Philippines. When warned of certain imprisonment or death if he did, Ninoy countered, “if it’s my fate to die by an assasin’s bullet, so be it”. Read the rest of this entry »
