CLUB SECRETARY BENJIE TAN

T almost 2000H, Pres. Tony and IWC Pres. AMerla called the meeting to order. Since the meeting was supposed to be presided over by

the Inner Wheel Club, most of the parts of the program were assigned to the Anns. IWC PP Tess Bolos led everyone in praying for God's presence and assistance during the meeting, while IWC PP Beth Rosario led the singing of the National Anthem. IPP Nestor acknowledged the visitors specifically IWC Dist. Chair Michelle Zarate-Lioanag and Rtn. Joie Mendoza led the singing of the welcome song.

PE Raul Tamayo delivered his 58th and 59th jokes for the joke time as well as the night's chairman who shared a joke that needs deep thought to understand.

Pres. Merla first had her President's time where she thanked those who brought their respective spouses and encouraged them to go with their husbands every last Tuesday of the month which has been declared as joint meeting with the Inner Wheel Club.

Pres. Tony came next and thanked the RCDD members for responding to the challenge of the District Governor. Officially, the whole of District 3790 is updated in the payments of SAR, a first in the entire Rotary world and RCDD is part of the history. He also reminded the members of the deadline for the submission of solicitations and moved it to September 18, 2012 to have enough time to prepare and print the souvenir program. For the information of those absent the previous

The WeekThat Was

Activity : 9th Weekly MeetingDate : September 4, 2012Venue : Kuya Maxx Restogrill De Venecia Hway, Dagupan City

meeting, Pres. Tony announced that as was discussed earlier, he is supportive of the idea to re-energize the Inner Wheel Club of Downtown Dagupan thus, the joint meeting.

As has been his practice every time there were guest speakers, Pres. Tony made his president's time as short as possible and not steal the thunder from the speaker.

IWC PP Susan Maramba was called to introduce the Guest Speaker, the District Chair of 379 Michelle Zarate-Lioanag. In her message, the district chair spoke the basics of the Inner Wheel, its role vis a vis with the Rotary and purpose of its creation. After her message, PDG Albino Gonzales was called to complement what the District Chair has said and he “warned” those who are using Rotary meetings as an excuse to do some “personal errands.”

By and large, the meeting was very lively and informative and I hope next joint meeting, there will be more anns in attendance.

At 2145H the meeting was called to adjournment but prior to the banging of the gavel, the community song was sung.

Fellowship continued.

Editor’sNote

IN college we were taught how to write a short term paper or a thesis. We learned how to make the introduction or statement of the problem, the body or the thesis and anti-thesis and the conclusion or resolution but most importantly, we learned how to

acknowledge our sources from where we copied some parts of our work. If one were to write a short paper on a specific topic, one needs to at least acknowledge the source by making an end note where you enumerate all the titles of the book you used, their authors, their publishers, year of publication etc. Failure to do so would adversely affect you work.

However, when writing a thesis, one has to master the skill of properly acknowledging one's sources because thesis writing is so highly technical that a misplaced quotation mark or a comma would affect the meaning of a sentence and more importantly, would affect one's grade. Also, in acknowledging one's reference, one MUST make the footnotes. This makes thesis writing too technical because footnotes are very essential in writing thesis.

Failure to acknowledge, however, one's reference or sources would spell doom on one's work and chances are, your work shall be returned or you get a failing grade due to PLAGIARISM.

Plagiarism, according to dictionary.com, is “an act or instance of using or closely imitating the language and thoughts of another author without authorization and the representation of that author's works as one's own, as by not crediting the original author.”

Lately, some people in the government were accused of plagiarism or copying one's ideas, p ro jec t ing them as the i r own and no t acknowledging their sources. One of the supreme court justices was impeached because of this. One senator of the land is being accused of plagiarism not once, but twice.

If the meaning of the word, as defined by some dictionaries, is to be taken seriously and strictly,

then everybody is guilty of plagiarism to some degree or to a great extent. Every speaker, when making a speech, usually forms his ideas based on the books that he read. Every idea that we have or we share were from what we actually read somewhere. We are just creative enough to paraphrase some passages and deliver them in a different manner. It is certain that even the great thinkers and authors, at some point, committed this “crime”.

Is this actually a crime? In the academe, this is a “crime” because you get punished for committing it. However, in the world beyond the schools, this may be frowned upon, maybe tolerable because “everybody is doing it.”

“Wrong is wrong even if everybody is doing it and right is right even if nobody is doing it”. From an old adage.

E had a very good joint meeting the last time and I am happy

Wthat the spouses who came seemed so enthusiastic for the warm welcome extended by the “old” timers in the Inner Wheel.

If my observation were correct, I would expect more anns joining the Inner Wheel and our goal of re-energizing them would come to fruition. I would suggest then to Pres. Merla to continue to persuade the spouses to attend our joint meetings and on my part, I would “force” the Rotarians to bring their spouses.

I would like to thank District Chair Michelle Lioanag for gracing our special and urgent joint meeting and imparting her knowledge with our members. Surely, everybody learned something from the speeches last meeting. I hope that that would not be the last time that the District Chair would attend our joint meeting.

We are just two weeks away from our induction and I am now trying finalize everything. However, one of the most important aspect, solicitation and souvenir program, of preparation is being put on hold pending the submission of the ads. As of to date, only PE Raul Tamayo has submitted his solicitation. Thank you PE Raul.

I am also in close coordination with Sec. Benjie to corner the advertisements of the current members of the Sangguniang Panlungsod and we are quite successful with it. Thank you Sec. Benjie.

In addition to the souvenir program, we are now in the laying-out stage and so it is imperative that we submit our ads early for us to have enough time for proofreading and early release of the same.

Our club needs those ads not solely for our induction but for the sustenance of our future projects as well.

With our collective effort, I am certain that we will be able to, once again, overcome the challenge and have a successful induction. I am counting on everyone.222777

Nasaan Ka?

Effort

The Pope was finishing his sermon. He ended it with the Latin phrase, “Tutti Homini” - Blessed be Mankind.

A women's rights group approached the Pope the next day. They noticed that the Pope blessed all Mankind, but not Womankind.

The next day, after His sermon, the Pope concluded by saying, “Tutti Homini, et Tutti Femini” - Blessed be Mankind and Womankind.

The next day, a gay-rights group approached the Pope. They said that they noticed that he blessed man kind and woman kind, and asked if he could also bless gay people.

The Pope said, "Sure".

The next day, the Pope concluded his sermon with, “Tutti Homini, et Tutti Femini, et Tutti Fruiti.”

Juan: Oys, ano yan? Pinya? Pahingi naman dyan. Pedro: Pahingi? Nasaan ka noong nagbubungkal

ako ng lupa sa ilalim ng init ng araw? Nasaan ka noong nagtatanim ako habang kumukulog, kumikidlat at bumubuhos ang malakas na ulan? Nasaan ka noong oras na nag-aani ako na nagkalat ang maraming ahas sa dadaanan ko, noong naghihirap ako sa pagpasan ng pinya? Nasaan ka?

Juan: Nakakulong kasi ako noon! Nakapatay ako ng madamot!

Pedro: Ganun ba? Kuha ka na, kahit ilan! May langka pa doon!

Anak: Itay baksak ako sa English recitation!

Tatay: Bakit, ano ba tanong?

Anak: Ano daw ba ang definition ng effort?

Tatay: Anak ano ka ba? ang hina mo naman! Kala ko ba mana ka sa akin? Effort lang 'di mo pa alam... ang effort ay 'yong nilalandingan ng eroplano!

Rotary Community Corps (RCC) is a group of non-Rotarian men and women who share Rotary's values and commitment to service. With the guidance and support of their sponsor Rotary clubs, RCCs plan and implement projects that address issues affecting their communities such as health, literacy, safety, employment, and the environment. They may also help support Rotary club service efforts. Currently there are more than 7,000 Community Corps in over 80 countries.

The goals of the Rotary Community Corps programs are to: • Develop partnerships between Rotarians and non-

Rotarians in a joint effort to enhance their community. • Support community members who proactively

address community needs, recognizing their unique ability to identify the most pressing concerns and suitable methods of implementation.

• Promote sustainable solutions to community needs by engaging a broader segment of the community in developing and implementing focused service projects.

RCCs empower community members to initiate and implement their own service projects and facilitate collaboration between Rotarians and non-Rotarians in their community development endeavors. RCCs can flourish anywhere in the world where Rotary exists.

Organize an RCC An RCC must be sponsored by a Rotary club in the same Rotary district. Discuss your ideas for starting an RCC with the club president and service projects committee, outlining the need and benefits. Once the club has agreed to sponsor an RCC, you can move

Rotary Community Corps

forward with developing the corps and recruiting members. Consider distributing the brochure Rotary Community Corps: Changing Lives, Shaping the Futureat community events for prospective members.

Apply for recognition from RI Once an RCC at 10 members it can be officially recognized by Rotary International. To apply for a charter, fill out the Rotary Community Corps Organization Form, and send it to RI World Headquarters or the international office serving your area. After RI has received the information, an official charter certificate will be mailed to the president of the sponsor Rotary club.

Register RCC projects on ProjectLINK On behalf of an RCC, a sponsor Rotary club can register a project that could benefit from financial assistance, donated goods, or volunteers by completing and submitting the ProjectLINK Submission Form: Project Seeking Supportto RI .

Share your story with RI RI is always looking to promote project stories that can inspire or educate others in their own service efforts.

The next day, after His sermon, the Pope concluded by saying, “Tutti Homini, et Tutti Femini” - Blessed be Mankind and Womankind.

The next day, a gay-rights group approached the Pope. They said that they noticed that he blessed man kind and woman kind, and asked if he could also bless gay people.

The Pope said, "Sure".

The next day, the Pope concluded his sermon with, “Tutti Homini, et Tutti Femini, et Tutti Fruiti.”

Juan: Oys, ano yan? Pinya? Pahingi naman dyan. Pedro: Pahingi? Nasaan ka noong nagbubungkal

ako ng lupa sa ilalim ng init ng araw? Nasaan ka noong nagtatanim ako habang kumukulog, kumikidlat at bumubuhos ang malakas na ulan? Nasaan ka noong oras na nag-aani ako na nagkalat ang maraming ahas sa dadaanan ko, noong naghihirap ako sa pagpasan ng pinya? Nasaan ka?

Juan: Nakakulong kasi ako noon! Nakapatay ako ng madamot!

Pedro: Ganun ba? Kuha ka na, kahit ilan! May langka pa doon!

Anak: Itay baksak ako sa English recitation!

Tatay: Bakit, ano ba tanong?

Anak: Ano daw ba ang definition ng effort?

Tatay: Anak ano ka ba? ang hina mo naman! Kala ko ba mana ka sa akin? Effort lang 'di mo pa alam... ang effort ay 'yong nilalandingan ng eroplano!

Rotary Community Corps (RCC) is a group of non-Rotarian men and women who share Rotary's values and commitment to service. With the guidance and support of their sponsor Rotary clubs, RCCs plan and implement projects that address issues affecting their communities such as health, literacy, safety, employment, and the environment. They may also help support Rotary club service efforts. Currently there are more than 7,000 Community Corps in over 80 countries.

The goals of the Rotary Community Corps programs are to: • Develop partnerships between Rotarians and non-

Rotarians in a joint effort to enhance their community. • Support community members who proactively

address community needs, recognizing their unique ability to identify the most pressing concerns and suitable methods of implementation.

• Promote sustainable solutions to community needs by engaging a broader segment of the community in developing and implementing focused service projects.

RCCs empower community members to initiate and implement their own service projects and facilitate collaboration between Rotarians and non-Rotarians in their community development endeavors. RCCs can flourish anywhere in the world where Rotary exists.

Organize an RCC An RCC must be sponsored by a Rotary club in the same Rotary district. Discuss your ideas for starting an RCC with the club president and service projects committee, outlining the need and benefits. Once the club has agreed to sponsor an RCC, you can move

Rotary Community Corps

forward with developing the corps and recruiting members. Consider distributing the brochure Rotary Community Corps: Changing Lives, Shaping the Futureat community events for prospective members.

Apply for recognition from RI Once an RCC at 10 members it can be officially recognized by Rotary International. To apply for a charter, fill out the Rotary Community Corps Organization Form, and send it to RI World Headquarters or the international office serving your area. After RI has received the information, an official charter certificate will be mailed to the president of the sponsor Rotary club.

Register RCC projects on ProjectLINK On behalf of an RCC, a sponsor Rotary club can register a project that could benefit from financial assistance, donated goods, or volunteers by completing and submitting the ProjectLINK Submission Form: Project Seeking Supportto RI .

Share your story with RI RI is always looking to promote project stories that can inspire or educate others in their own service efforts.
