Ayudang 5k-8k ng DSWD, alam mo na kung papaano kunin?

The newly approved Bayanihan Law under President Duterte's grant of emergency and extra power have made its first move by giving out financial assistance to the less fortunate and affected families from Enhanced Community Quarantine (ECQ) amid COVID-19 outbreak. This will be executed under the Department of Social and Welfare Development. (DSWD.)

This final assistance will be given to the eligible families and they will be receiving a minimum of 5 thousand up to 8 thousand pesos depending on the region's minimum wage level. That would be the agency's basis on the amount needed to buy food, medical assistance and other essential needs.


WHO ARE THE QUALIFIED PEOPLE?

1. Families most affected by enhanced community quarantine based on government review and have at least 1 member:
 - Senior Citizen

HOW TO APPLY?

According to Guro Ako website, here are the following procedures on how to appeal for the social amelioration program:

"Step 1: The local government unit (LGU) will distribute Social Amelioration Card (SAC) forms on a house to house basis. The SAC forms serve as monitoring and validation tools to help the government identify the families that need urgent financial assistance.

Step 2: All the necessary information on the SAC form will be filled up by the head of the family in big letters.

Step 3: Submit one of the forms to the LGU official when they return for collection. Make sure that the form is filled up and complete. Keep the other form (duplicate) for reference and monitoring.

Step 4: The DSWD and other government agencies will send the aid to the LGU for distribution to beneficiaries."

Coffee Lover Ka Ba? Ito Pala Ang Tunay Mong Pagkatao Kung Mahilig Ka Sa Kapeng Ito

9:55 AM
Coffee is one of the staple morning drinks in the world. Some people need their daily dose of coffee to be productive. Students cramming for their school work drink several cups per night. Salary men  start their day with a fresh brew, even hipsters and yuppies drink some form of caffeine in the form of frappuccino and iced drinks.

Coffee is undeniably a source of energy for a lot of people in the world. But according to Reader's Digest, a person who drinks black coffee -- coffee and water alone -- you might need to get checked with a psychiatrist soon. 


Why? Well, according to their studies, people who indulge in black coffee are probably psych0paths.

Several researches back this claim. A 2015 study from the University of Innsbruck in Austria found that there is a correlation between preference of black coffee and other bitter food with a psych0pathic and or sad*stic tendencies.

Journal Appetite also conducted a survey with almost 1,000 adult respondents about their flavor preferences and its relationship with Machiavellian traits like narc*ssism, psych0pathy, sad*sm, and aggression.


They also found that people who like adding milk and sugar to their coffee and other sweeteners are generally more agreeable.

Further research suggested that this association with bitter foods and such tendencies could get worse over time.

However, Reader's Digest said that people don't need to jump into conclusions. There is still the subjectivity with regard to the relative taste of "bitterness". Also there is still an unsure cause for the correlation of such personality traits with bitter foods. In 2018, Dr. Steven Meyers from Roosevelt University even took notice of this correlation and conducted his own study. His findings show that there is "very small" association with the bitter tastes and psych0pathic tendencies. He said that methods must be repeated several times to get a reliable data set.

In conclusion, the connection between preference in coffee and such behaviors are only a possibility.a
