Kailan ba magiging hindi-English ang wika ng SONA?
NAKAPAGTATAKA na ang dahilan para sa pagkakaroon ng isang Wikang Pambansa ay ang pag-uugnay ng mamamayang may iba’t ibang pananalita. Bagamat marami pa ang isyu tungkol dito ay hindi naman siguro natin maipagkakait na isang layunin ng Wikang Pambansa ay ang pagiging simbolo ng pagkakaisa at nasyonalismo. Ngunit sa mga nakalipas na taon, ang punong wikang ginagamit ng ating Pangulo sa kanyang SONA ay Ingles, at may piling bahagi lamang na Filipino.
Hindi ba weird kung ang wika ng State of the Nation sa USA ay Spanish? O ng France ay English? Kapag ang mga kausap mo ay Pilipino, bakit pa kailangan gamitin ang Wikang Dayuhan kung pwede namang mag Wikang Pambansa? Wala naman yun sa official language policy, nasa common sense lang.
Coffee Bean’s latest tea infusion out now!
It’s not like any other tea I’ve tasted before. It seemed sweet because of the aroma but it tastes just right sans sugar. I still can’t explain the sensation. As I said, please do grab an order and tell me your own experience. I can assure you it will be so worth the trip to CBTL. To satisfy consumers’ varied preferences, the African Sunrise is availabe in three variants: brewed (or steeped), iced, and latte.

Man-Made Climate Change: The Company Advertising Cliches
I came across a certain fund enterprise and an inert interest suddenly doused my unconscious mind. False and misleading claims are being used in the advertisements of some companies to promote their products. This enterprising investment firm invited the attention of the U.S. Security and Exchange Commission (SEC) to warn such companies for the sake of would-be investors which maybe lured to invest in a company with the pretext that it adhered to man-made global warming concoction.

SONA form and content
The Malacanang occupant has been bitten by the pink bug of Bayani Fernando, Metro Manila’s czar who has painted the metropolis with pink colors for his beautification drive.
Short on good things to say on her State-of-the-Nation Address (SONA) today, GMA would highlight the event instead by what she would be wearing for the joint opening of Congress.
The SONA has long been a fashion show for the rich, the famous and the mighty. But this time it would be more than just a cat walk on the corridors of power. The pink gown of the Palace resident would appear to be the main feature of the SONA. Philippine media is abuzz with it noticeably turning broadsheets into fashion mags.
