The Real Peso Sign, How to type it?

Tuesday
May 12,2009

Last night (my local time – Asean Common Time) I searched if there are fonts that were updated to include the Peso currency sign which is located at Unicode point 20B1.

I was planning on creating a Peso font if I can not find a one, this was after the availability of Peso sign was discussed during the Philippine Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope Release Party. My search turned-out positive, there’s not just one but countless of fonts already updated with the Peso sign included.

Walang pakukulang ang sino mang magkamali sa pag-awit ng Lupang Hinirang. Ang may Pagkukulang ay ang  batas na hindi umaakma sa pangangailangan ng umaawit. Ang itinakdang tamang tono pag-awit ang hindi dapat pagtuunan ng pansin kundi kung naisasapuso ba ang nilalaman ng awitin. Naiintindihan ba ng umaawit ang malalalim na salita at kahulugan ng bawat salitang nakapaloob dito?

Kung ipagpipilitan ang tamang pag-awit sa Lupang Hinirang dapat ipakulong na ang lahat ng bisaya dahil ang “Perlas ng silanganan” ay hindi “pirlas ng selanganan”. Pati ang iba pang pangkat ng Pilipino katulad ng mga…

Subic Clark Tarlac Expressway

  • Filed under: Travel
Sunday
May 3,2009

I have heard many praises and expressions of relief that the new highway in North Luzon is now open and that is cuts travel short by hours. Trips to Subic and Baguio, is now as fast as a heartbeat, I have heard one comment even.

So when we planned our trip to Subic for my son’s birthday, we planned to take SCTEX so that we can get to Subic (and back) in lesser time than we used to. Maybe this is why we really did not rush to head out early, instead ate breakfast at home first and left around 8AM already.
