INQ7.netTHE NATIONAL Telecommunications Commission (NTC) has released two new rules governing third generation (3G) mobile networks and broadband wireless networks, along with the rules governing voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP).
“We have signed the new rules on 3G and broadband wireless networks on August 23, 2005, and we’ve released on August 24, same day as the release of the VoIP rules,” NTC Deputy Commissioner Jorge Sarmiento said.
Copies of the new rules were posted on the NTC website on August 24, 2005.
Philippine mobile phone carriers declined to comment on the final 3G ruling.
Globe Telecom lawyer Froilan Castelo did not comment on the new 3G ruling, but indicated that the new rules are the same as the previous drafts released to the public.
“They are the same as the draft rules. So not much has changed. But we have no comment at this time,” he told INQ7.net.
Smart Communications was unavailable for comment.
Philippine carriers have opposed NTC’s move to release the 3G rules, saying the market was not ready for this technology.
The final rules have reiterated the frequencies to be allocated for 3G use. These frequencies are 825–845 Megahertz (Mhz), 870–890 MHz, 1880–1900MHz, 1920–1980MHz, 2110–2170MHz, and 2010–2025MHz.
The 825-845 and 870-890 Mhz frequency bands are currently assigned to existing mobile phone operators in the country.
NTC will adopt the International Telecommunications Union (ITU) standard frequencies for use in 3G. These frequencies are classified as international mobile telecommunications (IMT2000).
The 3G rules have also outlined the criteria for the selection of qualified applications to the 3G frequencies; the rules on how to determine qualified applicants; rules on spectrum fees and performance bonds; obligations of 3G assignees, and sanctions.
It was stressed that those with Congressional franchise will only be allowed to operate a 3G network in the Philippines, the rules said.
Interestingly, the rule on limiting the 3G licenses to five public telecommunications entities was deleted.
In an accompanying memorandum to the final draft, the NTC said that mobile phone operators who have not fully fulfilled their obligation in rolling out networks are still qualified to apply for a 3G license.
The new rules also mandated the subsequent interconnection of all 3G networks, allowing seamless network sharing between local operators that will be granted 3G licenses.
The rules state that 3G networks should “interconnect with all 3G networks, cellular mobile telephone networks, local exchange networks and all other public networks, pursuant to existing laws, rules and regulations on mandatory interconnection;
“[It should also] share its 3G network and facilities with other 3G players in areas where demand does not allow more than one 3G network at mutually agreed prices or at prices set by the Commission. Only 3G operators that have complied with their approved roll-out plans can share their networks and facilities subject to mutually agreed commercial terms and conditions,” the new rules added.
The NTC has decided to defer the number portability provision in previous draft, saying that this issue requires a different set of rules.
In earlier public hearings, the NTC cited 134 3G licenses that have been awarded across 48 countries, with 67 networks having launched commercial services.
The total number of 3G subscribers has reached 22 million worldwide, a five hundred percent market growth in 2004 alone, with the Asia-Pacific region showing the strongest growth.
Meanwhile the NTC has also issued the final rules governing the broadband wireless networks.
Under the new rules, NTC will re-allocate specific frequency bands for the broadband wireless access of fixed, nomadic, and mobile networks.
These frequencies are 450-470 Mhz; 1900-1910 MHz; 1980-1990 MHz; 2400-2483 MHz; 2500-2700 MHz; 3400-3600 MHz; 5150-5350 MHz; 5470-5850 MHz; 10150-10650 MHz.
NTC that this move is consistent with government’s socio-economic agenda of using information and communications technology to provide universal access, and ubiquitous and affordable access to Filipinos.
The agency said that the transfer of previously authorized persons or entities operating radio stations within the listed radio frequency bands would be governed by Rule 603 contained in its memorandum circular 3-3-96.

Microsoft Philippines is granting more than one million US dollars worth of software and training assistance to the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) as part of their basic computer literacy project called “Kapit Bisig.”
The amount is the single biggest grant from Microsoft to any organization in the Philippines. It will be used to conduct free training of some 1,000 non-government organization members and basic computer literacy for around 7,000 residents of underprivileged communities.
The NGO members trained are expected to pass on what they’ve learned to other underprivileged communities, exemplifying the “training the trainer” concept.
The training will be conducted in TESDA training facilities nationwide.
The Microsoft-TESDA partnership is expected to reach out to 50,000 people in one year.
Secretary Patrician Sto. Tomas of the Department of Labor and Employment said the Microsoft-TESDA project would have a positive impact on the ICT competitiveness of country’s human resources.
She also lauded a previous program of Microsoft with DOLE, called “Tulay” (Bridge), which provides computer training to overseas Filipino workers and their families. Microsoft provided 134,000 US dollars for Tulay.

There are lots and lots of opinions on the date of birth of the first computer virus. I know for sure just that there were no viruses on the Babbidge machine, but the Univac 1108 and IBM 360/370 already had them (”Pervading Animal” and “Christmas tree”). Therefore the first virus was born in the very beginning of 1970s or even in the end of 1960s, although nobody was calling it a virus then. And with that consider the topic of the extinct fossil species closed.

basaenyo man ketdi ngarud (source):
SEATTLE, Washington, July 17: Sitting down for a personal meeting with Bill Gates this week, 10-year-old Arfa Karim Randhawa asked the Microsoft founder why the company doesn’t hire people her age. Under the circumstances, the question wasn’t so unreasonable.
Arfa, a promising software programmer from Faisalabad, Pakistan, is believed to be the youngest Microsoft Certified Professional in the world. The designation, given to outside experts who prove their ability to work with Microsoft technologies, has also been achieved by some teenagers. But it’s far more common among adults seeking to advance their computer careers.
Arfa received the certification when she was still 9, an impressive accomplishment in its own right, according to older programmers who have gone through the process. And others called it an encouraging sign of the continued emergence of women in a country where they have historically struggled to advance.
The situation illustrates “another side” of Pakistan, said Anand Yang, Director of the University of Washington’s Jackson School of International Studies. “That’s another reason to celebrate someone like her.”
Arfa’s one-on-one meeting with Gates was part of a visit this week to the company’s Redmond campus, arranged and sponsored by Microsoft to better introduce Arfa to the company, and to give people at headquarters a chance to meet her. The week included lab tours and a series of informal sessions with Microsoft executives and employees, including a Pakistani employee group.
She made an impression through a combination of charm, flattery and boldness uncommon for someone her age. For example, during Arfa’s meeting with Gates, she presented him with a poem she wrote that celebrated his life story. But she also questioned him about what she perceived to be the relatively small proportion of women on the campus.
“It should be balanced — an equal amount of men and an equal amount of women,” she explained afterward.
About 75 percent of Microsoft employees are men, according to company data. Recounting their conversation, Arfa said Gates acknowledged her concerns and talked about the broader industry’s struggles to increase the proportion of women in technology-related fields.
Other topics they discussed included her Muslim faith and her hometown, an industrial city known for its textile businesses.
Afterward, Arfa described Gates as an “ideal personality,” explaining that he had been second only to Disneyland on her list of things she wanted to see in the United States. Previously unaware of the casual dress code at Microsoft, she said she had expected Gates to be wearing a suit but was surprised to find him in a casual shirt with the top button open.
“I expected that all the people would be here in suits,” she said with a giggle, wearing a hat acquired during her earlier visit to the company’s Xbox game studios.
Later in the afternoon, she sat outside with S. “Soma” Somasegar, a Microsoft corporate vice president, and described her vision for a self-navigating car. He listened to her ideas and told her about some of Microsoft’s existing software for cars.
This is what Mr Somasegar wrote later about Arfa in his Weblog: “With every new generation, you see people achieving great successes and accomplishments at an earlier age than the previous generations. This is a natural part of evolution and also partly due to technological advances that enable people to access information and get exposed to different kinds of opportunities earlier in their lives. You might have read about the 9-year old wonder kid from Pakistan, who recently became the world’s youngest MCP (Microsoft Certified Professional).
“I got a chance to meet with this wonder kid – Arfa Karim Randhawa earlier this week. She is a 5th grader who visited us at Microsoft for a few days along with her father. I had a lot of fun in meeting Arfa and getting a chance to understand what motivated her to strive for such an accomplishment at such a young age. She definitely has some clear ideas about the kinds of scenarios she envisions technology can enable in the future.
“My hats off to Arfa’s parents for nurturing her passion and talent and providing her with opportunities to learn and excel. I wish Arfa all the very best in her life and hope that her passion for learning and more importantly “dreaming big” enables her to do great things in her life.”
To be sure, despite her question to Gates about employing people her age, Microsoft wasn’t about to offer a job to someone so young. But Somasegar talked about the possibility of an internship in a few years.
“The thing that’s exciting to me is her passion for technology at this age,” said Somasegar, who decided to invite Arfa to Redmond after reading a story about her in MicroNews, an internal company newsletter.
The visit to Microsoft headquarters was the culmination of a meteoric rise that has turned Arfa into something of a celebrity in her country. It began at age 5, when she walked by a computer lab at her school and started wondering about those strange “boxes,” the computers and monitors. Later, when she found out what they did, she was amazed.
“When you push a button, something magically appears on the box,” she said, recalling the experience.
She eventually persuaded her father to buy a computer, and she demonstrated unexpected aptitude, using Microsoft PowerPoint and other programs. Encouraged by what she was doing, her father took her to Applied Technologies, or APTECH, an advanced computer institute nearby.
“I saw her doing something extraordinary, making presentations,” said her father, Amjad Karim, who serves with a UN peacekeeping force in Africa and came with his daughter to Microsoft this week. “That made me think that she could use some professional coaching, and she could do better in her future life.”
Karim said he is careful not to push his daughter, but wanted to make sure that the opportunities existed for her to pursue her interest. He said he first noticed something unusual when she started displaying a remarkable memory, perhaps photographic, at a young age.
The people at the computer institute required some persuading, because of her age, but they accepted her as a student, taught her about programming and ultimately told her father that she appeared to be in a position to seek Microsoft certification.
The institute instructors assumed it would take Arfa about a year to go through the process of certification for developing Windows applications. But after four months of study and work, over summer vacation, she passed the required exams.
Her programming experience so far has been as part of her studies. She has created basic Windows applications, such as a calculator and a sorting program, primarily in the C# programming language. The certification she received was as a Microsoft Certified Application Developer. She says she plans to pursue a more advanced certification, as a Microsoft Certified Solution Developer, which involves building programs into a broader system for a business.
Arfa’s accomplishment is “very impressive,” said Michael Earls, 33, a software consultant and Microsoft Certified Solution Developer in Atlanta. “The type of thinking that goes into correctly answering those questions is pretty mature. … Microsoft certifications are not a joke — they’re highly respected in the industry.”
Ultimately, Arfa says, she would like to go to Harvard University or MIT, and then either go to work for Microsoft, in its developer division, or become a satellite engineer.
Since learning about Arfa from her father — and validating her programming abilities through an additional exam of their own — Microsoft representatives in Pakistan have held her up as an example in the country.
“We discovered her, we ran into her, we feel very lucky,” said Jawwad Rehman, Microsoft’s country manager in Pakistan, who also accompanied her to Redmond this week. “But I’m sure there are many others out there, as well, who don’t have access to the computers or the proper education system” as Arfa did.
As word of her accomplishment has spread in her country, Arfa has appeared on TV, in newspapers and spoken at Microsoft events. One youth magazine called her “Pakistan’s girl wonder.” A U.S.-based reporter for GEO TV, a 24-hour news and entertainment channel in Pakistan, came to Redmond this week to document her visit to the campus.
Although she has had a birthday since passing the certification test last year, Arfa is careful to point out that she was 9 when she took the exam. More precisely, she says, she was nine years, nine months, 11 days, and six hours. Fully aware of the fact that she’s the youngest Microsoft Certified Professional, she wants to be specific about her age at the time, in case another young programmer emerges someday to challenge what she calls her “world record.”
Her mother and two brothers, ages 3 and 7, stayed home while she and her father came to the United States. It was the first trip to the country for both. After some sightseeing in Seattle, they’re scheduled to return home tomorrow from their Microsoft adventure.
Next time, Arfa says, she hopes to visit Disneyland, as well.
Weblogs.com.pk adds: Little Arfa, who is the youngest MCP girl of the world, has invited Bill Gates to visit Pakistan and stay at her home. The invitation was accepted by Mr. Gates who had invited her to his home. She asked him to visit Pakistan and insisted that Gates stay at her home which he accepted and remarked that it would be fun.

If the computer cannot obtain an IP address from a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server, like a router using NAT (Network Address Translation), Windows will automatically assign an APIPA (Automatic Private IP Address) in the range:
Class B: 169.254.0.0 - 169.254.255.255
(Subnet mask: 255.255.0.0)One likely cause is Winsock corruption, caused by adware or a virus.
Winsock corruption
Winsock corruption can be caused by some software installation or, more likely, deinstallation going wrong or by advertising malware. Possible symptoms are:
* The computer can apparently establish an Internet connection, but then you receive no data or cannot send data.
* The computer cannot obtain an IP address from the DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server and Windows therefore assigns an APIPA (Automatic Private IP Address) like 169.254….

ken daytoy man:
1. Thou shalt not append trendy names to shit that already exists in an attempt to remarket it. (i.e. - podcast)
2. Thou shalt not bitch about windows if you are reading this from a windows machine.
3. Thou shalt not drink beer on a couch in the beginning of a vidcast unless your name is kevin rose, dan huard or alex albrecht. …and even then, thou shalt be subject to ridicule and slapping at random.
4. Thou shall admit that linux is only good for bragging rights and elitism.
5. Thou shall buy a $4000 gaming rig to play the two good games that come out this year before the third game is released, which renders your rig obsolete.
6. Thou shall buy a $2000 computer to surf the web. Everyone knows you’ll need all that processing power to handle the virii, spyware and trojans you’ll be hosting.
7. Thou shall scour rss feeds to find topics for your podcast rather than actually participating in any forums, conferences or other means of actually gathering news on your own.
8. Thou shalt not brag about stealing movies, not because it’s illegal… but because my mom has WinMX too.
9. Thou shalt not digg anything you’ve read on freshnews. We all read freshnews. Just stop.
10. Thou shalt not buy an ipod as an accesory to your daily fashion, but only because it’s a good mp3 player with acceptable battery life.
NOTE: We are guilty of at least one of the above. The key is to remember these rules as general guidelines, rather than aspiring to be guilty of all of them.
sa daytoy:
Where are all the women who forsake social outings to stay up all night writing computer code and read science fiction?
Most of those computer “geeks” (as the stereotype goes) live in countries that mandate math and science courses through the teenage years.
That’s one of the conclusions of a new study exploring the gender gap in computer science, a profession dominated by men. Professors of sociology at the University of California at San Diego and Western Washington released a study Friday that showed that women are vastly underrepresented in computer science in 21 nations–Germany, Czech Republic and Belgium being among the top countries with few women in tech.
That is because those as well as most countries are influenced by the notion that men and women are naturally suited to different occupations. But what’s different is that their schools do not require curriculum in math and science, and therefore encourage fulfilling those roles, according to the findings.
In South Korea, a nation with the highest number of women in computer science, math must be studied through 12th grade, and science through 11th. Ireland, Sweden, Turkey and the United States were also among nations with the highest penetration of women in technology.
hmm. manmano, aya, ti babbai a geeks?

Globe Telecom makes first 3G call in RP

INQ7.netMOBILE operator Globe Telecom has made its first third-generation (3G) video call over a 3G trial network, the company said.
Globe claims to be the first Philippine operator to have tested 3G in the Philippines after obtaining a trial permit and frequencies from the National Telecommunications Commission.
“Telecommunications is a very dynamic and fast-paced industry,” said Gerardo Ablaza Jr., Globe president and chief executive officer, after the 3G trial.
Globe was the first digital GSM network operator in the Philippines, when rival operators were still using analog networks about a decade ago.
It next jumped to 2.5G with General Packet Radio Service ahead of its rivals, according to Ablaza.
“Now, 3G is upon us, and we are ready. This video call is another milestone in the evolution of Globe, one of many steps Globe is taking to understand and build the next generation of telecommunications technologies and services,” the CEO said.
3G promises a richer multimedia experience with the mobile phone. With 3G, applications such as mobile TV and live video calls can be made.
Ablaza said Globe Telecom continues to push new technologies and innovations.
“We are committed to investing today in these trials to make sure we will be ready when the time comes,” he said.
Globe did not indicate when it would eventually launch a commercial 3G service.

Researchers have finally found evidence for what good Catholic boys have known all along – erotic images make you go blind. The effect is temporary and lasts just a moment, but the research has added to road-safety campaigners’ calls to ban sexy billboard-advertising near busy roads, in the hope of preventing accidents.
The new study by US psychologists found that people shown erotic or gory images frequently fail to process images they see immediately afterwards. And the researchers say some personality types appear to be affected more than others by the phenomenon, known as “emotion-induced blindness”.
David Zald, from Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee, and Marvin Chun and colleagues from Yale University in Connecticut, showed hundreds of images to volunteers and asked them to pick a specific image from the rapid sequence. Most of the images were landscape or architectural scenes, but the psychologists included a few emotionally charged images, portraying violent or sexually provocative scenes.
The closer these emotionally charged images occurred prior to the target image, the more frequently people failed to spot the target image, the researchers found.
“We observed that people failed to detect visual images that appeared one-fifth of a second after emotional images, whereas they can detect those images with little problem after neutral images,” Zald says.
