[Title] => Are we all going to the dogs in 2006?
[Summary] => It’s an irony that the animal most associated with loyalty, justice and fairness also figures in the most number of negative expressions. We say "dog-eat-dog" to mean ruthless self-interest, "in the doghouse" for being in a state of disfavor, "doggone" for damn, "dog in the manger" for being a selfish twit, and so on.
You call somebody a lazy dog or a lucky dog, accuse him of dogging it for failing to do his best or putting on a dog and pony show for nothing more than an elaborate PR pitch.

[Title] => Do-It-Yourself Feng Shui
[Summary] => 
Something unlucky happened to me on the way to two separate interviews with feng shui masters. I was stuck in a humongous EDSA traffic and it took me an hour and 15 minutes to negotiate one block, from the Quezon Avenue to the Timog intersection, before I could make a detour. I had forgotten it was the anniversary of Edsa 2 and traffic was jammed from Mandaluyong to Quezon City. When I got to Makati, I took a wrong turn to get to Tower One’s parking level.

[Title] => Chinese New Year customs to start the year right
[Summary] => 
There are some delightful New Year customs that I would like to share with you. These are based on the belief that how you act and feel on the first day will affect your luck for the rest of the year. Follow the advice below and start the year feeling great!
1. Do not enter the New Year in debt. This refers to personal, not corporate debt. Not only money but kindness should be repaid in kind.

[Title] => Harmony by design
[Summary] => 
How challenging would it be for an architect and designer to fuse the requirements of feng shui with the distinct taste of the homeowner – yet still leave his signature élan in its every room and on every wall?
Renowned architect and interior designer Ramon Antonio does all this with tasteful innovation and class, with one swish of his architectural genius. His latest challenge was the home of Dante Go, the affable president emeritus of the Chinese-Filipino Business Club.
