No collaboration.Teddy Casiño and Imelda Marcos in the 2009 birthday party of Armida Siguion-Reyna and her son, Carlitos.Tatlong kaibigan ang nagsabi sa akin na kumakalat daw ang litrato ni Rep. Teddy Casiño sa internet na kasama si Imelda Marcos at binibigyan ng masamang kahulugan.
Para bang nakipagsabwatan si Teddy sa mga Marcos na siyang nagpahirap sa mga sinasabi nating “maka-kaliwa” o nga nationalist na katulad ni teddy at ang mga nauna sa kanya na katulad nina dating Bayan Muna Rep. Satur Ocampo.
Ang artikulo ay tungkol sa birthday party nina Armida Siguion-Reyna, kilala sa kanyang programa sa television na “Aawitan Kita” at ang kanyang anak, director ng pelikula na si Carlitos, noong 2009.
The family and friends of entertainment icon Armida Siquion-Reyna and her son, movie director Carlos Siguion-Reyna, gathered last Sunday to celebrate the famous mother-and-son’s “taking kindly the counsel of the years.”
Armida and Carlitos share a birthday, Nov. 4. “Saves on birthday parties,” a writer-guest quipped. She turned 82, he 55.

China, on Thursday, Nov. 8 will hold its 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China in Beijing. Held every five years, the Chinese Embassy in Manila said there’s “a remarkable increase” of overseas journalists applying for accreditation for the event, compared to the number that covered the 17th Congress.
Thanks to Namfrel for the image.Ang Pilipinas ay demokrasya.
Maraming dugo ang pinuhunan ng mga nauna sa atin para natin makamtan ang ating kalayaan at magkaroon ng demokrasya kung saan lahat tayo ay pantay-pantay ang karapatan, mayaman o mahirap, matalino man o bobo, maputi o maitim, bata o matanda, mataas man o punggok, mataba man o payat.
Ang ganung prinsipyo ay nakasaad sa ating Saligang Batas.
Sa demokrasya, dapat lahat na mamayan ay may pantay-pantay na oportunidad mamuno ng bayan: Sabi sa Article II Section 26 ng ating Constitution: “The State shall guarantee equal access to opportunities for public service, and prohibit political dynasties as may be defined by law.”
Binanggit ng mga gumawa ng Constitution ang “political dynasties” dahil alam nila na hindi tama na ang iilang pamilya lamang ang may control ng kapangyarihan sa bansa.
Fitness First Southmall was part of my three to four times a week routine the past 14 months. I became fit and healthy . From a size that bordered to extra-large, I’m down to medium. Thank you very much, Christian S. Cerezo, my very competent and kind personal trainer.
As a bonus, I gained friends.
That’s why, borrowing a quote from Shakespeare, “Parting is such sweet sorrow.”
If you see any politician campaigning at the cemetery as we remember our loved ones who have passed away, erase his name from the list of the candidates that you will not vote in the May 2013 elections.
Even if they are not physically present many politicians take advantage of the crowd to have their followers distribute materials about them. The ultimate Epal.
Epal is slang which for the tagalog word ma-papel ( credit grabber or scene stealer).
Trillanes to public officials: don’t promote yourself using taxpayers’ money.In connection with anti-Epal campaign spearheaded by Vince Lazatin of Transparency and Accountability Network, Mae “Juana Change” Paner and Carlos Celdran, Senator Antonio “Sonny” F. Trillanes IV has added his name to those who want to do away with this offensive practice of self-promotion using taxpayers money.
Last Tuesday, Trillanes, , who chairs the Senate Committee on Civil Service and Government Reorganization, filed a bill that seeks to eradicate the unethical practice among public officials of claiming credit for various public works projects funded by taxpayers’ money.
Senate Bill No. 3310 is the consolidated version of the bills filed by Senators Miriam Defensor-Santiago
“This measure was put forward in relation to the prevalent unethical practice among our public officials who affix their names and/or pictures to announcement of projects which were funded or facilitated through their office, despite the fact that these projects were funded using the taxpayers’ money,” Trillanes said.
