Magazines Published In The Philippines
A magazine is a periodical publication, generally published on a regular schedule (often weekly or monthly), containing a variety of content. They are generally financed by advertising, purchase price, prepaid subscriptions, or by a combination of the three. Definition In the technical sense a ''journal'' has continuous pagination throughout a volume. Thus ''Business Week'', which starts each issue anew with page one, is a magazine, but the '' Journal of Business Communication'', which continues the same sequence of pagination throughout the coterminous year, is a journal. Some professional or trade publications are also peer-reviewed, for example the '' Journal of Accountancy''. Non-peer-reviewed academic or professional publications are generally ''professional magazines''. That a publication calls itself a ''journal'' does not make it a journal in the technical sense; ''The Wall Street Journal'' is actually a newspaper. Etymology The word "magazine" derives from Arabic , th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Mabuhay
Mabuhay is a Filipino greeting, usually expressed as ''Mabuhay!'', which literally means "long live". The term is also occasionally used for toasts during celebrations to mean "cheers".

Inflight Magazine
An inflight magazine (or in-flight magazine) is a free magazine distributed via the seats of an airplane, by an airline company, or in an airport lounge. Overview Many airline companies, or a few key content creating companies, produce in-flight magazines to provide details about their fleet, as well as articles about destinations, travel, and tourism information. In-flight publishing and media are a niche in the magazine industry. Airline titles have controlled distribution costs, and readership figures come from existing passenger traffic.
