Gen. Miranda recalled back to Isafp midnight

Published by Ellen on May 26, 2008

Another case of “give- and- take” policy of this illegitimate administration.
Just now, I was told that Gen. Miranda was ordered back to ISAFP detention quarters by Gen. Espino, the camp commander after just a few hours with his wife in the hospital. Heartless. What are they afraid of?

Will give update on this tomorrow.

Also for tomorow’s hearing of the human rights committee at the House of Representatives, the detained officers were not allowed to attend.

Ano ba naman itong si JDV? Naghihintay raw siya ng tamang panahon para sabihin ang alam niya tungkol sa NBN-ZTE scandal kasi kapag kinuwento raw niya ang alam niya baka raw matumba si Gloria Arroyo.

O ano ngayon kung matumba si Arroyo? Yun ang pinakamagandang mangyari sa Pilipinas.

Sinabi ng Inquirer kahapon na tinawagan raw nila si House Speaker Jose de Venecia na nasa Russia tungkol sa plano ng Senate Blue Ribbon committee na tatawagin siya bilang resource person sa imbestigasyon ng maeskandalo na $329 million (dolyar yan, ha) na kontrata sa ZTE Corporation ng China para magpatayo ng national broadband dito sa Pilipinas.

Fugitive Marine Captain Nicanor Faeldon said he was prepared to die in the pursuit of his “vision” to arouse “national consciousness.”

Faeldon surfaced on the popular video sharing website YouTube almost six months after he eluded arrest during a failed uprising by rebel soldiers on November 29 last year.

Compounding injustice

Published by Ellen on May 25, 2008

It’s a cruel irony that those who are asked to lay down their life in
order that we can have a just and humane society are being subjected
to continuing inhumanity and injustice.

That’s one of the dark legacies of recently retired Hermogenes Esperon
to the military establishment that the new AFP Chief Alexander Yano
would have to rectify to redeem the institution’s integrity and soul.

Update: Si CHR Chair de Lima daw ang lumalabag ng human rights ng mga police- Raul Gonzalez
Lahat tayo shocked sa nangyaring krimen sa RCBC sa Cabuyao, Laguna kung saan sampung tao ang pinatay ng mga magnanakaw.

Hindi sila nakuntento na nagnakaw. Pinagbabaril ang lahat na nanakita sa kanila.

Siyempre gusto natin mahuli ang mga kriminal. Sa sibilisadong mundo, salot ang mga kriminal. Ang gumawa ng kasalanan, dapat parusahan. Klaro yan sa mamamayan na ang may pakana ng krimen ay dapat maparusahan. Ayaw natin ang walang pakundangan na pagpatay ng mga inosente, lalo na kapag mga alagad ng batas ang may kagagawan.

Copp’s “Triangle of Life”

Published by Ellen on May 22, 2008

This article by Doug Copp, rescue chief and disaster manager of the American Rescue International, is again going the rounds of the internet following the earthquake in China that has claimed the lives of more than 40,000 people.

Copp says “when buildings collapse, the weight of the ceilings falling upon the objects or furniture inside crushes these objects, leaving a space or void next to them. This space is what I call the ‘triangle of life’. The larger the object, the stronger, the less it will compact. The less the object compacts, the larger the void, the greater the probability that the person who is using this void for safety will not be injured. The next time you watch collapsed buildings, on television, count the ‘triangles’ you see formed. They
are everywhere. It is the most common shape, you will see, in a
collapsed building.”

Magkano ang presyo ng katotohanan

Tama naman si Sandra Cam sa kanyang sama ng loob sa ilang senador, lalo na kay Sen. Juan Ponce Enrile, na nagre-reklamo sa P2 million na gastos ng Senado para protektahan sina Rodolfo “Jun” Lozada, Jr. at Dante Madriaga, dalawang witness sa imbestigasyon ng NBN/ZTE bill.

Si Sandra ay naging witness sa imbestigasyon ng Senado sa jueteng kung saan kinuwento niya ang kanyang pag-deliver ng pera galing sa isang Col. Mosqueda ng PNP kay Rep. Iggy Arroyo, kapatid ni Mike Arroyo. Alam ni Sandra ang sakripisyo ng isang testigo laban sa mga lider ng sindikato ng kasamaan.
