Napuno ng mga sup-porters at mga kilalang personalidad mula sa iba’t ibang sektor ng komunidad ang naturang tanggapan upang makiisa sa oath-tak-ing ni Mayor Dimacuha. Kasunod nito ay nanum-pa naman sa kanya bilang bagong halal na Board Member ng ikalawang dis-trito ng Batangas si Bokal Marvey Mariño. Nanumpa rin kay Di-macuha ang mga bagong halal na mga myembro ng Sangguniang Panglungsod na sina Glenn Aldover, Claudette Ambida, Aileen Montalbo, Sergie Atienza, Armando Lazarte, Allysa Cruz, Gerry dela Roca at Julian Villena. Ayon kay Secretary to

the City Mayor Atty. RD Dimacuha, ipagpapatuloy at higit na palalawakin ni Mayor Eddie ang mga programa ni Mayor Vilma lalo’t higit sa social ser-vices. “Makikipagtulungan ang administrasyon sa bagong halal na kinatawan ng ikalawang distrito ng Batangas at sa mga nation-al government agencies sa pagsusulong ng economic development ng lungsod at upang itanghal ito bilang isang investment destina-tion,” dagdag pa ni Atty. RD. Ipagpapatuloy din ang mabilis na proseso sa busi-ness registration sa ilalim ng partnership sa USAID at ang pagbibigay ng

maraming trabaho sa mga Batangueño. Idinagdag pa ni Atty. RD na patuloy na palalakasin ang disaster preparedness kung saan magkakaron ng pakikipag-ugnayan sa UP Diliman at UPLB sapagkat mahalaga aniya na maging resilient sa mga kalamidad ang lungsod. Binigyang diin din niya na ang pagkakapanalo ni Mayor Dimacuha na may 54,000 votes na lead sa nakatunggali nito ay isang pagpapatunay o testament na mahal siya ng taong bayan at senyales din ito upang higit niyang pag-butihin ang kanyang tra-baho. “Ito ay maiituring na approval rating sa mga na-

nunungkulan sa lokal na pamahalaan kung kaya’t malaki ang inaasahan ng publiko sa mga ito,” sabi ni Atty. RD. Para naman sa mga patuloy na bumabatikos sa administrasyong Di-macuha, hinikayat niya ang mga ito na makiisa sa mga programa ng pamahalaang lungsod sapagkat anumang pagsubok aniya ay maka-kayanan sapagkat kayang kaya, bastat sama sama. Sa muling panunung-kulan ni Mayor Eddie sa City Hall, gagawing higit na maganda at masaya ang pagdiriwang ng 44th Foundation Day ng Batan-gas City sa July 23 bilang opening salvo.

I AM a Catholic but not a closed one in the sense that there are some teach-ings of the church which, to my mind, don’t con-form with what my com-mon sense understands. At this point I must confess I am wanting in spirituality, for example I doubt that the saints could intercede for us here on earth. Despite the many petitions and novenas of-fered to them by countless devotees and testimoni-als by witnesses who had been granted graces thru their petitions. Like a doubting Thom-as I do not believe that the saints could intercede for us for they were ordi-nary mortals like us. But

She told me she wiped it on the relic of St.Therese and be-lieved it would help me in my condition. With skepticism I kept it with the question at the back of my mind: “How would she help me when I don’t even know her?” Two days later I had an attack of heart failure. I gasped for breath and doctors attached a res-pirator on me overnight. In the morning weak and tired, I was surprised to see the relic of St Therese brought to me by my priest friend, Fr. Bong Pamintuan. That was not prearranged. The relic was brought to the hospital for a visit to Father Bong. My daughter happened to be around and she requested that the relic be brought to

NOONG isang araw ay nasabon ni Sen. Tito Sotto si Land Transportation Office chief Viginia Torres. Anang senador ay dapat konsultahin ni Torres ang mga abogado ng tanggapan nila, sa halip na makinig sa abogado ng mga drug testing centers. Ang isyu, naasar ang senador sa LTO dahil hanggang ngayon ay hindi pa nili-lift ang patakaran sa drug testing, samantalang malinaw umano sa bagong batas na pinirmahan ni Pangulong Noynoy Aquino noong Mayo 30, 2013 na Republic Act 10586 o Anti-Drunk and Drugged Driving Law, na tinatanggal na ito. Magiging mandatory na lamang ang drug test-ing kung sakaling masangkot sa aksidente ang isang driver o motorista na tiyak umanong walang kawala. Ang drug testing kasi ngayon ay walang silbi dahil wala namang napapatunayan dahil sa anomalya, at gumagastos pa ang mga driver pag nagre-renew at mga bagong kukuha ng lisensya. Salag ni Torres, nakapaloob sa batas na mer-on pa silang apat na buwan para maghanda at magba-langkas ng implementing rules and regu-lations.June 27 nagpatawag ng pagpupulong ang LTO sa mga stakeholders tulad ng DoH, Office of Solicitor General at iba pa upang pag-usapan ang pagbuo ng IRR. Salag pa niya, hindi pa nalal-athala ang bagong batas sa mga diyaryo na may nationwide circulation kaya hindi pa ito epektibo. Punto naman ni Sotto, tanggalin na dapat ni Torres ang status quo order dahil mabigat ang ba-tas—na nakapaloob ang immediate and executo-ry at may repealing clause pa. Posible umanong maharap sa mga kaso si Torres dahil sa hindi pag-sunod sa batas, at dapat itong managot sa execu-tive department. Kung magmamatigas pa si Torres, baka mag-sumbong na umano si Sotto kay Pangulong Aquino, bagaman at malapit na kaibigan ito ng Pangulo dahil palagi itong nakakasama sa target shooting practice.May duda si Sotto na baka hu-mihirit lamang sa LTO ang mga drug testing cen-ters dahil may pera at kumikita sila dito. Maraming anomalyang umiikot sa LTO, at ka-hit sino, ang tingin sa drug testing ay walang silbi sa mga kumukuha ng lisensya. Malinaw na iniu-tos na ni P-Noy na alisin na ito, at ang patuloy na pagpapatupad kahit labag na sa batas ay patunay kung gaano katigas ang mga nasa likod nito.

ANO kaya kung magkaroon ng isang kooperatiba ng mga artist, writer at reader sa Pilipinas gaya ng Writers and Readers Publishing Cooperative sa UK? Marami pa rin ang nagtataguyod ng komiks bilang isang sining at sila ang naiisip ko na baka magkainteres na magtayo ng isang kooperatiba. Ang isang kooperatiba ay pag-aari ng mga taong pinaglilingkuran nito. Owned by those it serves. Kaya kung gusto ng mga artist at writer ng isang establisimiyento na magpapatuloy sa paggamit ng komiks bilang sining at maaari rin nilang pagsulitan ng kanilang likha, sila ang kailangang mamuhunan dito. Pero hindi lamang artists at writers ang puwedeng sumali sa kooperatiba. Maaari rin ditong sumali ang mga mahilig magbasa, mga distributor at vendor at maging mga empleyado ng imprentahan. Hindi kailangang napakalaki

ng puhunang isasali, pero gaya sa ibang negosyo, mas malaki ang pakinabang na matatanggap ng may mas mal-aking puhunang inilagay (kapag kumita). Ano naman ang negosyong puwedeng itayo ng isang readers, writers and artists cooperative? Malamang na publishing business ang una nilang maisip. Isang estab-lisimiyento na maglalabas ng mga komiks, pocketbook, magasin, atbp. Ito nga naman ang maaaring tumanggap sa kanilang mga trabaho. Pero hindi lamang ganitong uri ng negosyo ang maaaring ipundar ng kooperatiba ng mga art-ist, writer at reader. Ang isang kooperatibang irerehistro bilang isang multi-purpose cooperative ay maaaring pu-masok sa kahit na anong negosyo na kaya nitong pasukin at makakatulong din sa mga kasapi. Pangkaraniwang iti-natayo ng mga kooperatiba ang pautangan at grocery. Pero kahit hindi direktang nakakatulong sa mga kasapi, kung kikita naman ng maganda ay maaari ring ipundar ng isang kooperatiba. Napakalawak ng posibilidad—impren-tahan, internet café, marketing/trading business, pagpo-prodyus ng pelikula at marami pa. Siyempre ay kailangan lang pag-aralan muna. Sa kooperatiba ay dalawa ang basehan sa pagtanggap ng pakinabang. Una ay base sa laki ng isinaping puhu-nan o share capital. Mas malaki ang puhunan, mas malaki ang matatanggap na interest on share capital. Ikalawa ang tinatawag na patronage refund o balik- tangkilik. Kung sino ang kasaping mas maraming biniling produkto o mas tumangkilik sa serbisyo ng kooperatiba ay siyang makaka-tanggap ng mas malaking patronage refund. Bukod pa ito

MULA nang kunin akong consultant ng isang bagong newspaper sa Metro Manila ay nakatuwaan kong mamigay ng kopya tuwing gabi kapag pauwi na ako sa bahay. Naging posible ito dahil suma-sabay ako sa service na kumukuha ng mga kopya sa gabi sa im-prenta sa bandang pier, at dahil magdaraan din naman sa malapit sa amin ang sasakyan, nagbibitbit nga ako ng ilang kopya. Iba-iba ang uri ng mga taong nabibigyan ko; mga tam-bay, nanay, tatay, lolo, lola, barangay tanod, negosyante, estudyante, etc. etc. Noong una ay hesitant silang tumanggap ng kopya da-hil baka raw singilin ko sila after a week. Sabi ko’y promo copy lang iyon kaya libre, at inii-introduce pa lang ang nasabing newspaper sa market. Ginawa ko ito para malaman ko na rin kung ano ang magiging response ng iba’t ibang klase ng readers sa dyaryo. At nang masanay naman ang mga binibigyan ko ng kopya, ako na ang inaabangan nila kapag pauwi na ako. Kapag nagtatanong ako ng tungkol sa mga nilalaman nito ay puro positibo naman ang kanilang sinasabi. Pinakamarami ang nag-aabang ng resulta sa lotto. Ang mga babae naman, gustung-gusto raw ang mga nobelang prosa. Ang iba ay horoscope at feng shui naman ang trip. Mayroon ding sports page agad ang inuuna. ‘Yun nga lang, since day one na namigay ako ng

kopya, may isang bagay akong hinihintay pero hindi ko pa naririnig—ang salitang salamat. Salamat sa diyaryo. Parang ang hirap bigkasin para sa kanila, kagaya rin kapag may nakipaabot sa iyo ng bayad sa dyip na sa halip na pasalamatan ka ay sisimangot pa sa iyo na para bagang utang na loob mo pa sa kanya ang ginawa mo. Nang magtagal ay naging demanding pa ang mga binibigyan ko ng dyaryo. Bakit daw hindi ako dumaan ka-hapon? Puwede raw bang agahan ko ko kasi kung minsan ay hindi siya nakakakuha ng kopya? Hmm, kailangan pa palang ako ang mag-adjust sa schedule nila! Anyway, hindi naman ako naghihintay ng kapalit sa ginagawa ko. Mas nagtataka lang ako sa papanipis nang papanipis nating values na mga Pilipino. Noong panahon ng ating mga ninuno, napakadali para sa kanila ang mag-pasalamat sa munting kind gesture ng kapwa. Alas! Noong isang araw na nag-abot ako ng kopya sa

that Mr. Aquino would be a lame duck President for his remaining three years in office. It looks like their wish will not happen. Ironically, among the nine Team-P-Noy members, only one (Sen. Bam Aquino) belongs to P-Noy’s own Liberal Party. From the United Nationalist Alliance (UNA), two newcomers and a reelected one will reinforce the Senate Opposition group. They are: Senators Nancy Binay, JV Ejercito Estrada and Gregorio Honasan.

* * * On the local scene. Christopher de Leon will not have any toma de posesion stint in the local government where he was No.1 Provincial Board Member during his previ-ous term. In the last elections he failed in his attempt to get Batangueños promote him to the post of congressman for Batangas 2nd District. Boyet lost to Raneo Abu who claimed to possess ample experience in the job, having served as executive assistant for ex-Rep. Herminigildo I. Mandanas and later promoted to supervising political l affairs officer in the House of Representatives under the same office. Gov. Vilma Santos Recto won unopposed and gained her third term at the Capitol. This “Star for all Seasons” doubles as Governor and movie queen with a tremendous-ly popular appeal as box office films and TV celebrity cum medical product endorser. Who says you can’t eat your cake and have it, too?” Vice Gov. Mark Leviste, Ate Vi’s running mate got re-elected. Batangas City ex-councilors Dexter Buted and Marvey Mariño are now 1st and 2nd, respectively, Provincial Board Members (Bokales), of Batangas 2nd District. The third is Bo-kala Amy Alvarez who hails from the island town of Tingloy.

* * * In the capital metropolis. On June 30, front-running Batangas City political leader Mayor Eduardo B. Dimac-uha reels off with his latest term (his 7th reelection since 1987). He has served over the years, interrupted only by the constitutional edict of limiting the period of incum-bency of elected officials to three (3) at a time. Mayor Eddie or EBD took over from his better half, Mayor Vilma Abaya-Dimacuha, after the constitution-mandated hiatus on 2010-2013. Popularly known as “the longest serving mayor” of this port city, EBD transformed Batangas City from a low-in-come struggling community in 1968 to its present category as “a highly-urbanized component city” in this part of Luzon. New Vice Mayor. Dr. Emilio “Jun” Acosta Berberabe is the newVice Mayor and Sangguniang Panlungsod presiding officer. The new Sangguniang Panlungsod. There’s an im-provement in the number of kagawads in EBD’s renewed Administration. In the previous City Council, there were six (6) Admin councilors against four (4) in the Opposition. This time, the ratio is 8:2. They are:Mayor Eddie’s NPC partymates Couns: Glenn Aldover, Claudette Ambida, Ai-leen Grace Montalbo, Serge Atienza, Mando Lazarte, Alys-sa Renee Cruz, Gerardo dela Roca and Julian Villena. Sectoral representatives. Coun. Prudencio Cepillo (ABC Rep.), Richard Cabatay (SK Rep.) Couns. Hamilton Blanco and Kristine Balmes belong to the LP opposite camp. AS the new sets of public servant perform their re-spective toma de posesion we hope they hit the ground running. Enough of much politicking. Get down to brass tacks!.# ([email protected])

ENTER the various sets of executive and legislative offi-cials who won their seats in the recently concluded midterm Philippine elections. Spaniards call it “toma de posesion,” In English, the translation “taking possession” is suggestive, but “assumption of office” is more close to the meaning. Winning reelectionists were to return to their old of-fices and resume customary functions therein. Those who were not lucky were to have stepped down and relin-quished their official duties to the newly elected ones. That was supposed to have transpired on June 30, the last day of office of the previous administration. June 30 is also the official start of the term of all those elected last May 10. In the national and local bureaucracies July 1 is the opening of the incoming fiscal year. A “fiscal year” always begins on July 1 of a particular year and terminates on June 30 of the succeeding year. It’s reckoned with for purposes of official transactions in gov-ernment which encompass countless functions including, but not limited to, budget, accounting, auditing, etc. The current period is “Fiscal Year 2013-2014.” It’s dis-tinguished from “calendar year” which, also for purposes of government transactions, is marked from January to December. Thus, this is “Calendar Year 2013.”

* * * New Senate composition. THIS time it’s not anymore their popularity and vote-getting potentials which count. I refer to the composition of the incoming Senate. The ra-tio of nine (9) Administration allies against three (3) UNA senators greatly favors President Aquino and his program of government reforms. Question now is: Will the Malacañang-friendly Senate be able to perform efficiently the full support expected of it in accomplishing the President’s vital socio-economic program? Can it be a sturdy and beefy cog in the wheel to turn a realistic accomplishment of P-Noy’s priority proj-ects as an enormous, if not total, poverty reduction and the creation in large number of much needed jobs? You have three years of the remaining P-Noy term of office to look and see. The following senators who won under Team P-Noy bandwagon are expected to support strongly the Presi-dent’s development projects and his matuwid na landas fight against corruption and wrong-doings in government: Sen. Paolo Benigno “Bam” Aquino IV, Liberal Party; In-dependents Grace Poe and Francis Escudero; NPs Allan Peter Cayetano, Antonio Trillanes and Cynthia Villar; LDP Juan Edgardo Angara Jr.; NPC Loren Legarda; and PDP Laban Aquilino Pimentel III. During the midterm polls campaign, P-Noy bashers lashed at President Aquino’s vigorous endorsement of his chosen candidates. They claimed that was aimed at mak-ing said candidates win so as to create a powerhouse Sen-ate that would be servile to the President. The critics wanted Team-P-Noy to lose altogether so

MARAMING “bakit” ang ating pagninilayan sa ating column ngayon. Mahalaga ang bakit sa buhay ng bawat tao. Ang bakit, kapag nakakatagpo ng ta-mang katugunan ay nagbibigay ng kapayapaan sa ating isipan kapag ito’y nalalambungan ng maram-ing masasalimuot at hindi maintindihang alalahanin. Subalit ang bakit ay lalong nagbibigay sa atin ng kalituhan kapag ang mga katugunang natatanggap ay hindi malinaw. Sa ganitong situwasyon, hindi tayo dapat tumitigil sa paghahanap ng malinaw na sagot para maging masaya ang ating buhay. Sa larangan ng buhay, napakarami ng mapag-uukulan ng bakit, ngunit sa pagkakataong ito ay dadako na lamang tayo sa ilang parte ng larangan ng bu-hay- sa mga panganngailangang dapat natutugunan ng mga kinauukulan. Halimbawa, bakit may mga luma at sira nang para-alan sa ilang mga barangay na hindi naiipaayos? Bakit mayroon pang makikipot at lubak-lubak na kalsada sa ilang mga probinsya na hindi pa naaayos? Bakit marami pa ring mga bulubunduking lugar ang wala pang maayos na kalsada at wala pang serbisyo ng elektrisidad? Bakit maraming kagubatan ang patuloy na nauubos ang mga puno? Bakit hindi masawata ang mga namumutol nito? Bakit marami pang mga ilog na tinatawiran ng mga bata patungo sa kanilang paaralan ang hindi napalalagyan ng tulay? Bakit may mga tulay na nasira ng matinding pag-baha ang hindi pa ganap na naipapaayos? Ang karani-wan nating naririnig na kasagutan sa mga bakit na ito ay “Hindi naisasa-ayos ang mga proyektong ito dahil ku-lang sa budget”. Ang sagot na ito ay maaari pang sundan ng isa o marami pang “bakit”. Maraming bakit pa rin ang nakabandera sa mga ganitong tanong: Bakit patuloy na dumarami ang gu-magawa ng krimin? Bakit patuloy na dumarami ang mga naghihirap? Bakit marami ang walang mapasu-kang trabaho? Bakit marami ang nagtitiis na tumira sa mga squatters area. Bakit marami pa rin ang mga namumulot ng pagkain sa mga basurahan? Bakit maraming mga bata ang hindi nakakapag-aral? Bakit marami ang nalululong sa bawal na gamot? Bakit iilang tao ang nagmamay-ari ng mga lupain sa ating bansa? Bakit marami ang nakapagpapayaman sa sarili kahit ang pamamaraan ay nakakaapekto sa iba? Bakit marami ang mga naaapi at nasisiil ang karapatan, at iba pa? Bakit pagbabawas ng tao ang naiisip na remedyo ng ilang “marurunong” kapag naghihirap ang bansa? Ano baga ang talagang dahilan kung bakit tayo’y ki-nukulang? Sadya bang kakaunti ang inihanda ng Diyos para sa Kanyang mga anak? Ito kaya ang dahilan kung bakit ang bansa’y naghihirap? Bakit kaya ang gusto ng Diyos ay dumami ang tao tulad ng bituin sa langit at buhangin sa dagat (Genesis 22: 17), kung ito pala ang magiging dahilan ng kahirapan ng bansa? Ang ating Ama ay mayaman. “Nasa Kanyang palad ang buong daigdig pati kalaliman; ang lahat ay Kanya maging ang mataas nating kabundukan; Kanya rin ang dagat at pati ang lupa na Kanyang nilalang” (Salmo 95: 4-5). Bakit hindi mapula ang pagsira ng tao sa kayamanan ng Diyos? Everything is enough, if there is no corrupt. Everything is ready, if there is no greedy. God will operate, but we have to cooperate. God will provide, but we have to abide. “Kapag walang corrupt, walang mahirap.”

isang manong na may tindahan ay nagkatsikahan kami nang konti. Hindi na raw siya bumibili ng dyaryo dahil nagdadala naman ako. For the first time ay nagpasalamat siya, at kundi ko napigil ay ipagbubukas pa sana ako ng softdrink. Huwag na ‘kako dahil busog pa naman ako. Natuwa ako sa ginawi niya. At para bang kahit sangka-terba ang hindi nagpapasalamat, nasulit na lahat sa kanya. Which brings to my mind na nasa Bibliya nga pala ang ganitong sitwasyon. May pinagaling na sampung ketongin ang Panginoong Hesus pero isa lang ang bumalik para

magpasalamat sa kanya, ‘yung siyam ay hindi na. Naisip ko rin, sa kabila nang pagnipis ng Pinoy values, may paisa-isa pa rin namang nagtataglay nito. Parang ‘yung isang gumaling na ketongin na nang magbalik sa Panginoong Hesus ay nasambit Niya na, “Rise and go; your faith has made you well.” Sa kaso ni Manong na nagpasalamat sa akin, ngayong hindi na naka-promo ang dyaryo, may free copy pa rin siya sa akin—at lubus-lubos pa rin lagi ang kanyang pasasalamat. Aminin natin na sa mumunting bagay na ating ginagawa ay hindi naman tayo naghahangad ng kapalit ngunit masarap marinig ang salitang salamat. Sabi nga ni Alfred Painter, “Saying thank you is more than good manners. It is good spirituality.”

MARIAN RIVERA: Pasaway ang tingin sa kanya ni Mother Lily.

KIM CHIU: Nagluluksa na, inaaway pa ng mga bashers sa internet.

SA kabila ng pagluluksa sa pagpanaw ng kanyang ina, binuweltahan ngayon ng young actress na si Kim Chiu ang isang blogger na umano’y palaging gumaga-wa ng kuwento tungkol sa kanya. Sa kanyang Twitter ac-count, sinabi ni Kim na hindi niya maintindihan kung bakit palaging gumagawa ng ku-wento ang blog site at hashtag na “respeto naman sana.” Pinatutsadahan pa nito ang blogger na tiyaking tama ang mga naisusulat. Bagama’t hindi direktang tinukoy, sinasabing ang blog site na FashionPULIS.com ang tinutukoy ng aktres na nag-publish ng isang sulat na galing umano kay “Micki” at ang tinutukoy ay isang aktres na nagluluksa sa pagkama-tay ng mahal sa buhay. Habang sinusulat ang artikulong ito ay nasa Cebu si Kim para sa burol ng ina niyang si Loella Chiu na namatay sa hindi pa isina-sapublikong karamdaman. Sa kabilang dako na-

man, kasabay ng paglala-bas ng saloobin ni Kim sa Twitter ay nag-post din ng tweets ang nakaalitan ni-tong dating best friend na si Maja Salvador. “You don’t know her... You just know her name... #PleaseDon’tJudge #Please RESPECT,” ani Salvador. Bagama’t hindi malinaw kung si Kim ang tinutukoy ni Maja sa tweets nito, ma-papansing may pagtatang-gol sa tweet ng huli para sa dating kaibigan.

hgNAGBANTA si outgoing Cagayan de Oro Rep. Benja-min Benaldo ng legal action laban sa media na nakiki-alam umano sa problemang pinagdadaanan nila ng misis na si Daiana Menezes. Sinabi ng mambabatas, hindi siya magdadalawang-isip na magsampa ng kaso. Dahil daw kasi sa hindi niya pag-amin at pagbibigay ng public apology sa sinasa-bing domestic violence, sini-siraan siya at ang Brazilian model.

Naaawa raw siya sa misis na binabatikos umano ng ilang media. “I respect freedom of the press and freedom of speech. However, due to my apparent lack of admis-sion and apology on TV, several media personalities have relentlessly lambasted and attacked Daiana,” ba-hagi ng statement na inila-bas ni Benaldo. “I feel for my wife Daiana. I believe some of them have been too personal and full of malicious intent to destroy our persons.” Bagama’t hindi direk-tang sinasagot, pinaniniwa-laang biktima si Daiana ng domestic violence ngunit tikom ang bibig nito kung sino ang may kagagawan. Napag-alaman na umani ng reaksyon ang pagpo-post ni Daiana ng mga larawan niyang may mga pasa at sugat at sinabi ni Benaldo sa joint interview nila na napatawad na siya ng mod-elo matapos humingi ng sorry. Pero sa pinakahuling interview, sinabi naman ni

Daiana na pinagmukha si-yang tanga ni Benaldo sa joint interview nila.

hgSA kabila ng mga pasa-ringan at face off sa korte, bukas pa rin umano ang TV host-actress na si Kris Aqui-no sa pakikipagbati sa dat-ing mister na si James Yap. Ayon kay Kris, hindi niya isinasara ang pintuan para sa rekonsilasyon kay James, para sa kapakanan ng anak nilang si Bimby. Sinabi ni Kris na si-nusunod niya ang advice ng young actress na si Kim Chiu na hindi dapat pilitin ang pag-aayos dahil kusa itong mangyayari sa ta-mang panahon. Bagama’t ayon sa Presi-dential sister, kung mag-kakabati man sila ni James, dapat na may effort ang magkabilang panig dahil kailangan aniyang sinsero silang dalawa. Inihayag ng tinaguriang Queen of All Media na gus-to niya lang ay ang maka-bubuti sa mga anak at kung ang isa rito ang pagbabati nila ni James nakahanda si-

yang gawin ito.hg

NAGSALITA na ang sing-er na si Erik Santos tungkol sa ibinabatong isyu hinggil sa kanyang pagkalalaki. Inamin ng singer na nasa-saktan siya sa mga balita at kontrobersyang kumakalat

kanyang bagong album na “The Erik Santos Collec-tion” kung saan naka-com-pile ang lahat ng film at TV series theme songs na kan-yang kinanta. Mayroon pang isang al-bum ang singer na binubuo sa kasalukuyan na isang all-original album. “[Singing is what I do best] and feeling ko ‘yun

na isa umano siyang bakla. Sa panayam ng pro-gramang ‘Showbiz Inside Report’ ng ABS-CBN, sinabi ng singer na suko na siya sa kanyang mga kri-tiko dahil hindi naman niya kayang baguhin ang opin-yon ng mga ito. “Noong una, siyempre [napipikon ako], pero nga-yon, kung anuman ‘yung ipakita mo sa kanila, hindi mo naman sila mapi-please. Kung anuman ‘yung panini-walaan nila, ‘yun pa rin na-man ‘yung pinaniniwalaan nila, eh. Bahala na kayo sa buhay n’yo,” anang singer. Itinutuon na lamang daw ng singer ang atensyon sa kanyang singing career kung saan nagsi-celebrate siya ngayon ng kanyang 10th anniversary bilang isang propesyunal na singer. Magre-release siya ng

ang strength ko,” sabi pa ng singer. Mag-offer nang mag-offer ng kanta, masaya o malungkot. Iyon ang di-reksyon ng career ko. ‘Yun pa rin.” Isang dekada na ang lumipas simula nang mag-champion sa singing con-test ng ABS-CBN na “Star in a Million” si Erik.

hgVINDICATED ba ang dat-ing manager ni Marian Rivera na si Popoy Carita-tivo? Nega na naman kasi ngayon ang aktres dahil sa naging tampo sa kanya ni Mother Lily. Sinisi ang aktres ni Mother Lily kung bakit hin-di nagkaroon ng entry ang Regal Films dahil tumanggi raw ito na gawin ang isang pelikulang kasama si Judy Ann Santos. Mas gusto raw

PUNTONG... Mula sa pahina 3 taas sa kamalayan ng mga mambabasa. Bagay na bihirang gawin ng mga purely for profit na mga kumpanya. Ilang kasapi ng FB group na Komiks Pa Rin ang nag-pahayag ng concern na ang mga Pilipino raw ay tila nagig-ing makasarili na at nawawalan na ng pagpapahalaga sa pamayanan at sa pagkakaisa. Tila nalilimutan na natin ang ating mga bayani at kung ano ang kanilang isinasagisag. Masyado na tayong nagiging materyalistiko. May mga umaasa na ang mass media ay dapat sanang nakakatulong para maibalik ang ating values at mapataas ang antas ng ating kamalayan. Maganda ang layuning ito pero baka hindi natin ito maidaan sa mga for profit na establisimiyento dahil sasabihin nila na hindi ito kikita. Alalahanin natin na ang kanilang pangunahing layunin ay ganansya. Kailangan ding kumita ang isang kooperatiba pero ang pangunahing layunin nito ay makapaglingkod sa mga kasapi at makapag-ambag sa pamayanan. Service not for profit, ayon sa isa nilang islogan. Mungkahi lang naman. Baka sa halip na online com-munity at mga convention na kung minsan ay problema kung saan manggagaling ang pondo ay baka mabuti pa na magtayo na lamang ng kooperatiba ang mga artist, writer ay siyempre ay mga mambabasa gaya ng kanilang ginawa sa UK. Matutulungan nila ang kanilang sarili habang in-aabot ang mas mataas na layunin ng kanilang sining.

sa bayad sa artwork, script o manuscript kung matatang-gapan sila ng trabaho. Sa kooperatiba ay limitado lamang ang ibinigay na pakinabang sa share capital at mas malaki ang ibinibigay na balik-tanggkilik. Kung gusto ng isang kasapi na mas malaki ang kanyang matanggap na patronage refund ay mahihimok siya na bumili at magbenta ng mga produkto ng kooperatiba. Hindi lahat nang kinita ng isang kooperatiba ay ipina-mamahagi sa mga kasapi bilang interest on share capital at patronage refund. Bahagi ng kinita nito ay itinatabi at gi-nagamit sa pagpapaunlad ng kooperatiba. Ang iba naman ay inilalaan sa education ng training. Lahat ng koopera-tiba ay may Education Committee at CETF o Cooperative Education and Training Fund. Dito kinukuha ang pondo para sa pagsasanay ng mga opisyal at kasapi ng koopera-tiba. Maaari ring maglaan ng pondo ang kooperatiba para sa iba pang aktibidad na aprubado ng mga kasapi. Kung sakaling gusto ng mga kasapi na magdaos ng mga conven-tion, contest o exhibit ay maaari itong paglaanan ng pondo ng kooperatiba.

Huling Labas

MATAGAL na kapwa hindi nakaimik sina Brad at Gwen. Parang may nag-daang anghel. Ang mga isipan nila ay naglakbay patungo sa tagpo nang huli silang magkita. Si Brad ang unang nagsalita. “I own this place. Na-inspire ako sa husay mo sa negosyo kaya nag-aambisyon din akong maging entrepreneur kahit maliitan lang. Kumikita naman kahit paano.” So, kaya pala niceguy.com. Dahil si Mr. Nice Guy ang may-ari. Huma-lukipkip si Gwen. Minas-dan ang lalaking kaytagal ginulo ang isip niya. Cute pa rin. Mas mukha nga lang naging mama ngayon. “I’m sorry hindi na ako nakapagpaalam nang per-sonal,” patuloy nito. “Bi-glaan kasi ang—“ Itinaas niya ang kamay bi-lang pagpapahinto sa sinasabi nito. “I told you not to always say sorry for all the things that you have done. Wala sa

akin kung hindi ka nagpaalam, that’s your prerogative. May bago na akong assistant, ba-bae at efficient ding tulad mo. Kaya lang, hindi marunong magbigay ng jokes,” ngumiti siya. “Nami-miss ko ang mga jokes mo, Brad.” Ngumiti si Brad. “Thanks. Na-miss din kita.” Tumaas ang kilay niya. “Ako, na-miss mo?” “Oo.” Humalukipkip siya. “’Yan naman yata ang pinakamalaking joke na na-kuha ko mula sa ‘yo, Brad. And for the first time, hindi ako natawa. Paano mo ako mami-miss samantalang ni minsan ay hindi ka man lang tumawag o nag-text?” may panunumbat sa tinig niya. “Plano kong gawin ‘yon...” “Kailan? Pagputi ng uwak?” “Pag kaya ko nang tapa-tan ang isang Gwen Cas-tello. Ayokong manatiling isang lupa na laging nakat-ingala lang sa langit.”

Tinitigan niya si Brad. “Hindi kailanman naaabot ang langit, Brad. Nananatili itong tinitingala. Pero iba ang lan-git sa pag-ibig. Ang pag-ibig, and’yan lang lagi. Naghihintay lang. Ba’t kasi ayaw mo pang sabihing hindi naman talaga ako ang tipo mong babae.” “Nagkakamali ka. Alam mo bang you’re the only one I always think of before I go to sleep every night?” Ay, nalaglag ang puso niya sa sahig! Akalain ba niyang ro-mantic pala ang kumag na ito kahit deadpan most of the time noong magkasama pa sila? Ngumiti siya. “Kung ga-noon, ano ang gagawin mo para hindi mo na ako iisipin lang sa gabi bago ka matulog?” Diretso ang sagot ni Brad. “I wanna marry you kapag mayaman na ako.” “Damn it, Brad!” sigaw niya. “I can live in starva-tion basta mahal mo ako. Now... answer me: Will you marry me?” “This is not the proper place to propose—“ Hindi na nakapagsalita si Brad. Hinagkan na niya ito sa labi. Matagal. Nang gumanti ito ng halik, nara-mdaman niya ang katoto-hanan ng sinasabi nito. His passionate kisses essay his love for her. Takang-takang napatin-gin sa kanilang dalawa ang mga customer.

***NANG ipakilala niya sa

kanyang ama si Brad, na-kita niya sa mga mata ni Josephus Castello, her ever disapproving dad ang nod of approval. Sabagay, kahit sinong ama ay hindi tatangging magkaroon ng manugang na obvious na certified nice guy. Hindi naman maitago ang pagkatuwa sa kan-ya ng ina ni Brad nang siya ang ipakilala nito sa matandang babae. Iimbi-tahan pa raw nito ang mga kumare at mga kaibigan para makita siya. Laging nakahawak sa braso niya. Panay ang bilin kay Brad na huwag siyang paiiya-kin. Malilintikan daw rito ang anak pag inaway siya. Nang gabing iyon, pinag-uusapan na nila ang details ng kanilang magig-ing kasal. Gusto nilang maging memorable ang araw na iyon. Para kay Gwen, bawat araw ay memorable sa kanya basta kapiling ang ngayon ay natitiyak niyang tunay na king of her heart. Si Brad... Ang lalaking unang kita pa lang niya ay alam niyang mayroon kaagad na espesyal na lugal sa kan-yang puso. Niyakap siya ni Brad. “Happy?” Gumanti siya ng yakap na may kasamang kiss. “Very!”

Idinaan kasi ni Ai Ai sa kapatid ni P-Noy ang paghingi ng suporta, kaya ang mga intrigero’t mga intrigera ay nagsabing PSG pa ang sinugo ni Kris. Kaugnay naman sa la-banniya sa asawang hini-hiwalayan, gusto na talaga ni Ai Ai na maka-move on, pero mukhang matatagalan pa dahil kayrami ng kasong isinampa niya at alam na-man nating napakabagal ng paggiling ng hustisya sa ating bansa. Sa ngayon ay nagba-bakasyon sa ibang ban-sa ang singer at aktres kasama ang mga anak para makapagpahinga sa kaliwa’t kanang intriga.

hgMARAMI na palang nawa-lang co-host sa Wowowillie. Nauna na si Lovely, sumunod si Arci Munoz at ang huli ay si Ate Gay. Pero ang huli la-mang ang nakumpirma nam-ing tsinugi for the nth time. Ang dahilan ay attitude daw. What’s new naman with the issue? Anyway, pumayag na-mang magkaroon ng co-host si Willie Revillame ng lalaki, at ito nga ang best friend niyang si Randy San-tiago. Napapagod na din ba ang TV host dahil madalas ay hinahayaan na rin ni-yang mag-host ang mga co-host nang wala siya. Still on Willie, nag-pasaring na naman ito na ang naging topic niya sa programa ay ang pagpapa-tawa. Dapat daw ang brand of comedy ay walang ha-long panlalait sa itsura ng kapwa. Dapat daw ay hindi pinagtatawanan ang hit-sura ng isang tao. Hindi rin daw maganda na sa pagko-comedy ay mga mga na-o-offend na tao. Obviously ay si Vice Ganda ang pinatatamaan niya, pero dedma lang na-man ang huli. Naisip siguro ni Vice, mas sikat na siya ngayon kaysa rito!

kasi ni Marian ang solo. Mariing tinanggi ito ng aktres pero nanindigan si Mother na hindi siya marunong magsinungaling. Mismong si Marian daw ang tumanggi sa kanila. Anyway, nagbati na na-man sina Mother at Marian pero nalipat man ng bagong manager si Marian, naiin-triga pa rin ang Regal Ma-triarch sa kanyang ugali.

hgHUMINGI ng paumanhin si singing sensation at da-ting Glee star Charice Pem-pengco sa kanyang pamilya hinggil sa ginawa nitong hakbang na paglantad sa tunay nitong katauhan. Inamin ni Charice na hindi pa rin maayos ang kanyang relasyon sa kanyang pamilya. Ito’y matapos lumantad ito sa publiko at inaming “tomboy”. Ayon kay Charice, umaasa pa rin siya na mag-kaayos siya at ang kanyang pamilya at tiniyak na siya mismo ang gagawa ng para-an para magkabati sila ng kanyang Mommy Raquel. Giit ng international star na “no regrets” siya sa kan-yang ginawang paglalantad dahil nakita umano niya na ang daming sumuporta sa kanya. Samantala, pinasala-matan naman ni Charice ang mga sumusuporta sa kanya dahil sa kanila uma-no siya kumuha ng lakas. Inihayag naman nitniyao na mayroon siyang planong gumawa ng proyekto kasama ang girlfriend na si Alyssa. Wala pang komento ang pamilya niya ukol sa na-sambit niyang plano para sa dyowa.

hgNAGING isyu ang pagka-karoon ni Ai Ai delas Alas ng PNP escorts noong siya ay humarap sa korte para sa hearing laban sa nakaaway na asawa na si Jed Salang. Kaya nilinaw ng Comedy Concert Queen na totoong humingi siya ng suporta sa kaibigan na Presidential sister, si Kris Aquino. Ayon kay Ai Ai, hindi naman daw mga miyembro ng Presidential Security

my bedside in the ward. It was such a touch-ing experience. I felt the message of the Lord God that He was send-ing me St Therese for me so may know her more spiritually. The following day, a family friend, Sister An-gie of the Holy Face of Je-sus, visited me in the hos-pital and upon seeing my St. Therese of the Child Jesus handkerchief, ex-pressed that she was also an ardent devotee of St. Therese of the Holy Face of Jesus. That completed the in-troduction to me of St. Therese. The following Sunday, I got the surprise of my life when Sister An-gie arrived bringing the relic of Jesus Christ (The Shroud of Turin). According to Sister Angie, while she was at-tending Mass she heard a

voice telling her to bring the relic to me. She then asked permission from the higher church authority to do so . I felt another message from the Lord. “Now, I am the one coming to you lest you forget.” I am now a transformed person after undergoing spiritual trans-fusion. People may find my language different from what it was before. Like many individuals, I had an incomplete and obscure faith in God. Now, I re-alize how grossly wrong I was. I’m determined to correct it. FAITH is an abstract thing. We can not see or touch it but we can feel it in our heart . I know of a supreme being we could not see, touch nor hear. God and faith could be equated to each other as to say that without faith you will have no God .

Because God loves us He has the best plan for us only. He does not do it in one sitting. He does it one by one to teach us how to live and work with faith and not by sight. By this I mean “by sight” when you possess the good for-tune of amassing wealth and power you say God is wonderful and kind. But you set him aside while you enjoy your fortune until a misfortune strikes. Then you will say there is no God. ON February 27, 2013 I was confined again in the hospital. My blood pres-sure soared to 200/100 complicated by severe renal failure. It was only after hemodialysis that my BP went down to 140/80. My medications for hyper-tension were suspended. Medical science would credit my recovery to dial-ysis, but even as a practic-ing physician I am inclined to believe that some saint-

ly intercession had also something to do. To me, it is very sig-nificant though that at that very day the relic of St Camillus arrived at the hospital (400-year-old heart in a very beauti-ful container) I started to feel well. My family had prayed to St. Camillus for my recovery. It seems all the things that happened to me were orchestrated by some divine help but I could not find any hu-man explanation for it. To think that they were all coincidence is far fetched . Only God could have made it possible by send-ing another message: “Be-lieve in Me and trust Me that with God, everything is possible.” Today, I realize it’s not too late to correct a wrong belief. Even at the twilight years of my life, after that spiritual transfusion, my spiritual anemia is gone.# (To be continued)

ang inihandang tribute ng mga kasamahan mula sa sangguniang panlalawigan na nagpapakita ng kanilang mga mga nagawa bilang mga tagapagbalangkas ng batas at mga larawan ng kanilang makulay at masa-sayang ala-ala bilang mga public servants ng lala-wigan. Matapos ito, isa-isang tinawag ni Vice Governor Leviste ang mga bokal para sa kanilang valedictory ad-dress para sa mga mama-mayang Batangueño.
