Signs of Endangerment (Kapampangan)
At present, the Kapampangan language shows signs of endangerment. The majority of the Kapampangan people are illiterate in their own language as it is not being taught in schools within the region. Tagalog currently dominates the language used in government, schools, work and the media within the Kapampangan homeland. Lexical borrowings from Tagalog are also evident in everyday communication. Evidence of language shift can also be observed in the Kapampangan household. An alarming phenomenon is the increasing number of parents that communicate with their children in Tagalog. The Catholic Church, once the refuge of classical Kapampangan, is slowly shifting to Tagalog in its liturgical songs and sermons.

History of Kapampangan
The word Kapampangan is derived from the rootword pampang which means "river bank." Very little is known about the language prior to the arrival of the Spanish in the 16th century. In the 18th century, two books were written by Fr. Diego Bergaño. He authored Vocabulario de la lengua Pampanga and Arte de la lengua Pampanga. The Kapampangan Language produced two literary giants in the 19th century. Father Anselmo Fajardo was noted for his works Gonzalo de Córdova and Comedia Heróica de la Conquista de Granada. Another writer, Juan Crisostomo Soto, was noted for writing many plays. He authored Alang Dios in 1901. The Kapampangan poetical joust "Crissotan" was coined by his fellow literary genius Nobel Prize nominee for peace and literature in the 50's, Amado Yuzon to immortalize his contribution to Pampanga's Literature. Currently, the use of Kapampangan, even in areas where the language has traditionally been spoken, is in decline.

Guides to start your Internet Cafe Business
The first step towards setting up an Internet cafe is planning it with all the details in mind as I've said on my last post your location must be a good spot, of students studying high school and elementary school, you must know how much would you invest, you must know what are the services you want to offer to your customer like CD burn, Mp3 downloads, Mobile Apps downloads, Printing, typing job, hands on etc… You also have to understand the profit that you can make and the profit that you want to make
Want to start Internet cafe business?
Want to start Internet cafe business? You need some guidelines and pointers to different options on software, business plans and swak sa budget franchises. Very important thing is to learn from the existing internet cafe and those that failed before you open your own Internet café. Internet Cafe is a good business if you find a strategic location - plenty of high school and elementary school. In our community, there are so many internet cafes. To survive, they charge 20/15 pesos per hour and have very fast computers ( gaming configuration ).Maybe my next topic are the guidelines... ehehe so hard to explain:D

Kapampangan at American Lady
Minsang nagkasabay sa bus stop ang isang kapampangan at isang american lady sa Chicago (windy city). Habang nakatayo silang dalawa, biglang humangin ng napakalakas at tumaas ang palda ng 'kana' na wala palang panty. Dahil sa ayaw ng pinoy na mapahiya ang 'kana' sinabi na lang n'ya na, "it's hairy (airy pala ang ibig sabihin) isn't it?" Sagot ng napahiyang 'kana', "Bastard! What do you expect to see, feathers?"
