Many hard-working and talented people were born in this country. Some have achieved superstar status, such as "Emmanuel "Manny" Dapidran Pacquiao (pronounced /ˈpækjaʊ/; born December 17, 1978) is aFilipino professional boxer. He is currently the WBO World welterweight champion, The Ring light welterweight champion, and is rated by The Ring as the number 1 pound-for-pound boxer in the world.
Pacquiao is also the former WBC World lightweight champion, WBC World super featherweight champion, IBF World super bantamweight champion, and WBC World flyweight champion. Furthermore, he is the former The Ring featherweight and super featherweight champion.
Pacquiao is the first boxer in history to win seven world titles in seven different weight divisions.[3]In addition, he is the only boxer to win the lineal championship in four different weight classes.[4]For his achievements, Pacquiao was named the 2000-2009 "Fighter of the Decade" by the Boxing Writers Association of America. Aside from being a boxer, Pacquiao has participated in politics, acting, and music recording."
I want a series of maximum cards with Manny. :)
"The Philippines (Filipino: Pilipinas [pɪlɪˈpinɐs]), officially known as the Republic of the Philippines (Filipino: Republika ng Pilipinas), is a country in Southeast Asia in the western Pacific Ocean. Taiwan lies north across the Luzon Strait. West across the South China Sea sitsVietnam. The Sulu Sea to the southwest separates it from the island of Borneo and to the south the Celebes Sea from other islands of Indonesia. It is bounded on the east by the Philippine Sea. An archipelago comprising 7,107 islands, the Philippines is categorized broadly into three main geographical divisions: Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. The capital city is Manila.
With an estimated population of about 92 million people, the Philippines is the world's 12th most populous country. It is estimated that there are an additional 11 million overseas Filipinos worldwide. Multiple ethnicities and cultures are found throughout the islands. Its tropical climate sustains one of the richest areas of biodiversity in the world." - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philippines
The Philippine Eagle was named the national bird of the Philippines.
"The Philippine Eagle, Pithecophaga jefferyi, also known as the great Philippine eagle or monkey-eating eagle, is among the tallest, rarest, largest, and most powerful birds in the world. A bird of prey belonging to the family Accipitridae, it is also known as "Haribon" or "Haring Ibon," which means "Bird King". Its local name is banog.[2]"
"Colugos (pronounced /kəˈluːɡoʊ/) are arboreal gliding mammals found in South-east Asia. There are just two extant species, [1] which make up the entire family Cynocephalidae (pronounced /saɪˈnə.sɛfˈɑːləˌdiː/) and order Dermoptera. They are the most capable of all gliding mammals, using flaps of extra skin between their legs to glide from higher to lower locations. They are also known as cobegos or flying lemurs, though they are not true lemurs." - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flying_lemur
It is estimated that the flying lemur could make up 90% of the raptor's diet in some locations.[14]

maximaphily = collecting maximum cards (postcard + stamp + postmark)
Maximaphily
Maximaphily is a branch of philately, or stamp collecting, that means collecting maximum cards.
Generally, a maximum card is a postcard, with a stamp and a postmark on the picture side. Ideally, all these 3 elements should be concordant, but not identical.
The traditional way is to comply with the rules of FIP (International Philatelic Federation).
http://www.maximaphily.info
The non-traditional way, as I call it, is to follow nobody's rules! Unless YOU want it, of course.
I call DORINCARD any postcard that was personalized by adding a stamp and a postmark, on the picture side of the postcard. Traditional way, or not. :)
Philately (stamp collecting), as a confluence of domains: learning, writing, web design, business administration, etc.
