(and others), House Speaker Prospero Nograles has ordered the Congressional Committee on Rules to prioritize the passage of House Bill 4315, also known as the Anti Cyber-Boso Bill (Anti-Voyeurism Bill).

You Have the Right… Really?
April 22, 2009
To say that the events surrounding the Failon incident last week were alarming is an understatement. For those whose neurons are still on extended leave or buried under reality-displacing office work, one of last week’s biggest news was the death of Trinidad Etong, the wife of veteran broadcaster Ted Failon. Failon himself allegedly found his wife with a gunshot wound on her temple in a comfort room in their home. Etong died the following day, April 16, in the ICU of New Era General Hospital.
And the Philippines Belongs to…
April 7, 2009
Last week had its fair share of environmental depressants. That’s thanks to the Sulu kidnappings, Manalili’s commuted sentence and Chip Tsao’s overboard apology. One piece of news though caught my attention in particular. Surprisingly, it was more amusing than depressing.
Mindanao Goldstar’s April 4-5 weekend issue published a paid article that presented a certain Dr. Salvacion Legaspi-Kempe’s claim that a Chinese settler once owned the Philippines. According to her documents, the English Supreme Court issued a decree on January 17, 1764 that gave Prince Lacan Acuña ownership of the Philippines. Kempe who is from Iligan is allegedly a descendant of Acuña. Which means…
Earth Hour Is Tomorrow - Will You Be Participating?
March 28, 2009
Tomorrow is Earth Hour, all those who support the movement against negative climate change will switch off their lights from 8:30pm to 9:30pm local time.
This is an awareness campaign and will be presented to the world leaders later this year during the Global Climate Change Conference. If you care for this ONLY Planet of ours, if you care for your children, show your support by switching off your lights.
That’s one small step for man; one giant leap for mankind. ~ Neil Armstrong.

Not so long ago, the only pizza restaurants here in Cebu are the familiar and somewhat expensive international brands like Pizza Hut & Shakeys, and of course the unforgettable Mom’s Pizza (or Yummy’s).

14th Hot Air Balloon Festival, Clark Air Field, Pampanga
February 15, 2009
Guess what, I happened to be at Clark Air Field, Pampanga, when they opened the 14th Hot Air Balloon Festival, an event they dubbed as a “weekend of everything that flies”. Armed with my clunky digital camera, I took tens and tens of pictures which I have converted to a video for everyone to see. You may watch the hot air balloon festival video at Pinoy Seminars.

List of Bohol town fiestas
February 10, 2009
They say that the island of Bohol sinks about an inch in May due to the thousands of Bol-anons who come home to attend the many town and barrio fiestas celebrated during the month.
You can almost feel this once you disembark from those overloaded ships docking at the Tagbilaran Port in May.

SINULOG – The feast of the Blessed Senior Sto. Niño

SINULOG – The feast of the Blessed Senior Sto. Niño
The display of little colorful flag-lets that hang over the major streets of Cebu City, gives a distinction that the city is celebrating the Feast of the Patron Saint of Cebu, the Blessed Sto. Niño (Christ Child). Actually, in my own personal understanding, the Burnt Holy Child of Jesus could not be considered as saint because Jesus Christ is of Godly nature. But since, it has been accustomed that the patron saint of Cebu is Sto. Niño, that’s why I am using the title. Read more here Sinulog

The Plague in the Office
January 13, 2009
Here’s a story about a company in Manila. There were 10 of us. We were hired to start off a new account. Much to our amazement, the company was generous enough to pamper us with gadgets, take us to the US for “brainstorming,” treat us for dinner every now and then and give us enough to spend like no other typical employees would. Our first boss was “KC.” Out of the 10 leaders, none thought it was fair to kick him out and judge him to have “poor leadership” just for not being able to force us to bring calculators to an exam. None of us thought it was fair to throw him out of the circle just because we were issued laptops expecting no one would think of it as a privileged to add “leisure” to work. And so it happened… he was first to take a bow.
And so we had no choice but to move on… We were subject to scrutiny by all bosses and just a sniff of unpleasant smell would push us out of the circle. It happened… one of us was once again ruled out. Was it too early? Boss said he’d rather cut an arm than wait for the cancer to hurt the entire body. She was replaced.
And so the games began… During transition we though this is going to be one rowdy environment. The new boss came… he was uptight at first. He was strict and on fire. Days passed by and we started thinking… something’s not right. We saw him drink while on duty… sleep while on duty and mingle with all levels of people. It was seen to be one of his best qualities… he had “people skills.” Little did we know that that was going to be “the enemy.”
Cold
January 13, 2009
Hell must have frozen over by now. The cold weather has lately been, well, colder than usual. It feels like we’re transported back to the yuletide season. I live three floors above, in a building that looks as though it is waiting to be condemned and, worse, to be demolished. From up here, it feels like the unforgiving coldness of the breeze is exponentially raised. I am even tempted to wear a thick jacket while inside the room, the ones that you see in the polar episodes of National Geographic. I may look like an eskimo—or, as the eternally perverted Joey de Leon puts it, es es ki…never mind—lost in the Pacific but that isn’t really an exaggeration. I do not know what’s causing this arctic sweep in this tropical country, but I’m quite certain this is a good time to indulge yourself in a nice warm cup of coffee. Those with fecal incontinence should beware though. Too much caffeine and your ass muscles can loosen and blow that other end of yours, the lonely spot where the sun never shines, to smithereens.

Hell Hath No Fury Like Nature Scorned
January 11, 2009
I’ve been away from some of my online haunts lately. My momentum broke because the week began with a flood. Not the knee-deep flood that is the staple in expanding Philippine cities but the run for your life kind of flood that makes you wonder if the sins of mankind have yet again merited another Biblical Great Flood. This time, the story stars not a local Noah but the embattled conman or martyr (depending on your loyalties) from the people’s palace who came recently with a grin and matching relief goods.

Iraqi Shoe Thrower Hogs the Headlines
December 16, 2008
Somebody should congratulate US President George W. Bush for his quick reflexes in ducking two shoes hurled at him during a press conference in Iraq.
The assailant, an Iraqi TV reporter named Muntadhar al-Zeidi, tried to hit Bush with his shoes, but missed on both occassions. Nobody was quite sure what triggered al-Zeidi (not to be confused with al-Qaeda), but reports said that disdain over the US occupation of Iraq prompted the journalist to fire the leather missiles.
Simbang Gabi And My Back Pain
December 16, 2008
Anyway, here in Singapore, the Filipino Christmas tradition of Simbang Gabi (Misa de Gallo) started tonight at Church of Saint Anthony of Padua in Woodlands. I was supposed to attend the Simbang Gabi with my room mate but I was in so much pain that I have to skip it.
