Putting them in their place
Last Wednesday, the House Committee on Games and Amusements held a hearing to look into the Wynne Arboleda incident that happened during the Burger King-Smart Gilas game three weeks ago.

When You Live In A Haunted House…
In the spirit of Halloween, kwentuhang nakakatakot muna tayo. Have you ever had any ghostly experiences? Like have you ever seen one? Feel one perhaps? I’m not afraid to admit that I am a big scaredy cat myself. When I was a kid (sometimes until now), the dark always frightens me. Whenever we have to pass through a dark street or go inside a dim-lit room, I walk as fast as I could or close eyes so tight as if their sealed with epoxy, afraid of whatever I might see – or what might see me –...

Cicatrice III
Then were there two thieves crucified with him, one on the right hand, and another on the left.
- Matthew 27:38, KJV

Perhaps we’ll never see that; the Church will...
