Long Holiday Weekend for Cebu Province (Sept. 9-12, 2016) Pay Rules

It's a long holiday weekend for all employees and students in the whole Province of Cebu as they enjoy one Special Holiday on September 9, weekends on 10-11 and a Regular Holiday on Monday September 12 in celebration of the nationwide Eid'l Adha.



The Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) in the Province of Cebu encouraged all employers to follow the law by paying holiday benefits to their workers on Sept. 9 and Sept. 12.

Various educational institutions within the Province of Cebu already declared long weekends for Sept. 9 and Sept. 12 Holidays.

September 9, 2016 was already declared as a special holiday in the Province of Cebu in connetion with the birthday celebration of the late Cebuano political leader and President of the Philippines, Sergio Osmena Sr.

September 12, 201 was already declared as a Regular Holiday in the entire Philippines in celebration of the Feast of Sacrifice by our Muslim brothers and sisters. Pres. Rody Duterte signed Proclamation 56 which was signed before the President's departure to Laos for the ASEAN Summit.

DOLE 7 Regional Director Exequiel Sarcauga released the computation for the long weekends in the Province of Cebu.

On Sept. 9 all employers are obliged to pay an additional 30 percent of the worker's salary because this is a special holiday while on Sept. 12, employers are mandated to pay 200 percent because it is a Regular Holiday.

The computation of holiday benefits is the daily salary rate multiplied by 30 percent for Sept. 9 and times 200 percent for Sept. 12,Sarcauga said.

R. Tiglao Exposed LTO Records Showing Aquino Never Bought or Sold a Porsche

Veteran columnist Rigoberto Tiglao exposed the Land Transportation Office (LTO) records of former President Benigno Aquino III showing that he never bought or sold an expensive Porsche car. The LTO records proved that the former President did not sold his Porsche 911 Carrera car which he claimed he bought for P5 million. The controversial Porsche car of the former President made headlines just months into his presidency but he explained that he bought the luxury car with the proceeds he got when he sold his BMW. Because of the furor from such display of opulence, Pres. Aquino claimed to have sold it six months later for exactly the same price. According to Tiglao during that time he asked through his column the LTO to release the car's deed of sale and registration to prove that it was not a gift from a Chinese-Filipino tycoon as rumored by some individuals critical to the President. The only possible way to discover whether the Porsche luxury was indeed sold was through ...

You can pay at a restaurant by smiling at a camera

© Provided by Engadget As easy as it is to make purchases in the era of tap-to-pay services , it's about to get easier still. Alipay (which handles purchases for Chinese shopping giant Alibaba) has launched what it says is the first payment system that uses facial recognition to complete the sale. If you visit one of KFC's KPRO restaurants in Hangzhou, China, you can pay for your panini or salad by smiling at a camera-equipped kiosk -- you need to verify the purchase on your phone, but you don't have to punch in digits or bring your phone up to an NFC reader. The system (Smile to Pay) is purportedly resistant to spoofing with photos and other tricks. It relies on both depth-sensing cameras and a "likeness detection algorithm" to make sure it's really you. Reportedly, the technology is good enough that it can accurately identify people even when they're disguising themselves through makeup or wigs. You shouldn't have to worry about someone buying ...

Tesla cloud account hacked to mine cryptocurrency

© Provided by The Hill An unidentified outside hacker infiltrated Tesla's Amazon cloud account and used its systems to quietly mine for cryptocurrencies, a cybersecurity firm announced Tuesday. The hack also potentially exposed the electric car company's data. Researchers for RedLock found that Tesla's credentials on an IT administrative console were not password protected. They made the discovery while trying to track down which organizations had left their Amazon Web Services (AWS) credentials openly exposed on the internet last month. The hackers quietly hijacked the console and began running scripts to generate virtual currency like bitcoin, the latest in a series of "cryptojacking" attacks. The researchers also found the hackers used "sophisticated evasion measures" to go undetected. A spokesperson for Tesla said the company learned about the breach in a company-sanctioned bug bounty program that pays outside hackers to discover vulnerabilitie...
