Kung hindi niya pinirmahan yun, magiging batas rin naman ang bill by default. Ngunit maganda na pinirmahan niya. May tatak na personal siya doon sa batas.
Mag-isang buwan na ang bill na yan sa Malacañang, isang malaking bagay rin na nakarating dun dahil katagal-tagal na yan na i-file. Anim na Congresses na ang nakalipas at ngayon lang naka-usad at nai-pasa sa House of Representatives at sa Senado.
The incident with my cellphone has become a beautiful Christmas story:
Isa na dyan si Jason Miranda,na nasa maintenance ng Southmall sa Las Pinas na nagbalik ng aking Blackberry cellphone noong Miyerkules.
Noong Miyerkules ng hapon, bago mag-alas tres ng hapon, dumaan ako sa supermarket ng Southmall para bumili ng plastic na lalagyan ko ng crema de fruta.Nakalimutan ko kasi ito nang namili ako noong isang linggo.
Doon ko huli ginamit ang aking cellphone. Habang nakapila ako sa cashier, nag-check ako ng mga messages. Mula sa supermarket, pumunta ako sa National Book Store para bumili ng mga libro para sa mga anak ng aking mga pamangkin.
I was queuing at the Supermarket cashier with a few items for crema de frutta that I was going to make for friends. While waiting for my turn, I brought out my cellphone to check on some messages.
From the grocery, I went to the National Book Store to buy some books for my grandnieces and nephew. To make sure that they have not yet read the books that I was going to buy, I thought of calling their Mom. That’s when I found out that my cellphone was gone.
I’m really puzzled how the thief could have found an opportunity to pick my bag because I was wearing a body bag. But looking back, there was a brief moment when I had difficulty closing my bag because of zipper problems and I dropped my bag of groceries. Someone helped me with them and I even thanked him.
We have seen it in the last few weeks.
His certification of the Reproductive Health bill as urgent last week facilitated the passage of the measure which was vigorously opposed by the intimidating Catholic Church.
A few weeks ago, Congress also passed the Sin Tax Reform bill which cigarette and alcoholic drinks companies, with huge lobby money, were blocking.
News reports about Pangasinan Governor Amado Espino, Jr. as a jueteng lord is nothing new. On Sept. 20, 2010, retired Lingayen-Dagupan Archbishop Oscar Cruz gave the Senate committee investigating the illegal numbers game a list containing 12 names of jueteng lords, operators and recipients of payola which he said his group, Krusada ng Bayan Laban sa Jueteng, had cross-checked with several sources including those with the Philippine National Police and the Department of Interior and Local Government.
Espino’s name was there together with that of two people close to President Aquino: former Interior and Local Government Undersecretary Rico E. Puno and former Philippine National Police chief Jesus Verzosa, touted to be the next DILG secretary but had to retire early due his negligence in the Aug 23, 2010 Rizal park hostage-taking fiasco.
Maganda naman at buhay na buhay pa rin ang tradisyun ng simbang gabi, ang misa sa medaling araw. Paglabas mo ng simbahan, nandiyan ang puto-bumbong at bibingka.
Dito sa Manila, kape ang mainit na inumin. Three-in-one na. Sa probinsiya, salabat. Yung may kaya, tsokolate na malapot kasama ng ibos-suman at mangga. Ang sarap. Tamang-tama sa malamig na simoy ng hangin.
Ang ginagawa pa namin noon, nagsisindi ng mga naipon na basura na kadalasan ay dahon ng mga puno. Upo kami doon sa paligid ng apoy at magkwentuhan habang umiinom ng salabat o kape. Ang kape doon, kung hindi barako, kape ng bigas.
The deplorable incident was captured on camera by Chris Cozzone and can be viewed at http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/boxing/manny-pacquiao-aides-allegedly-attacked-photographer-brutal-knockout-005405170–box.html
A Yahoo news report by Kevin Lole showed a picture of Koncz grabbing Bello by his shirt while the burly Fernandez kicked him.
Another picture showed an enraged Fernandez going down through the ropes running after Bello.
Families of those who just “disappeared” from the face of the earth, most of them for their political beliefs, were fervently hoping for an early Christmas gift for the President. But alas, there was no such gift from the President.
Fernando “Butch” Fortuna, a taxi driver, tearfully appealed to the President to help find his son Daryl who was forcibly taken, with an female companion , Jinky Garcia, and Ronron Landingin, one evening in Masinloc, Zambales by men suspected to be members of the 24th Infantry Batallion of the Philippine ArmyB-PA while he was in an outreach activity in connection with his thesis. At that time, Daryl was a graduating student of the Polytechnic University of the Philippines.
Hindi pala. Gusto pa niyang lumaban ulit. Kaya pinag-uusapan na ngayon ang panglimang Pacquiao-Marquez fight. Baka sa Abril daw.
“I am going to rest and come back to fight. I would go for a fifth,” sabi niya sa interview sa kanya sa Las Vegas isang araw bago siya pinatumba ni Marquez.
Naloko na. Gusto yata maging gulay. Anhin niya ang kanyang bilyunes kung gulay naman siya.
Sabi ni Ronnie Nathanielsz, sports analyst, na delikado sa edad ngayon ni Pacquiao (magiging 34 siya sa Disyembre 17) , ang magpapatuloy sa boksing, isang sports na talagang bugbog ang katawan.
Sabi ni Nathanielz kapag tinitingnan niya ang coach ni Pacquiao na si Freddie Roach na dati ring boksingero at ang dating heavyweight champion na si Muhammad Ali, parehong may Parkinson’s disease, natatakot siya para kay Pacquiao.
