Jocelyn Dulnuan a Filipina Caregiver Killed in Canada Mansion.

Let’s make this call possible. Let’s help spread the news. Write this post in your blog. Maraming salamat Kabayan!

I read this news from a friend’s blog reynaelena.com . Our fellow kababayan Jocelyn Dulnuan, 27, from Namulditan, Hingyon, Ifugao, was killed last Monday afternoon in a Mansion in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada. Based on media reports, Dulnuan’s body was found on Oct. 1 on the premises of Doulton Place mansion where she worked as a live-in caregiver. According to the National Alliance of Philippine Women in Canada (NAPWC), Dulnuan entered Canada under the Live-in Caregiver Program (LCP) and worked under various employers in the Greater Toronto Area before working at the Doulton Place mansion.

The Daily Show Says Cory Aquino a Slut?

The Daily Show Says Cory Aquino a Slut.

If you have not watched the video, I’d say better watch it first before making a comment.

When I heard this news, labeling Former President Aquino a “Slut” in The Daily Show (a US-based entertainment show by Jon Stuart), Pinoy Ambisyoso, “I bet this would be another blockbuster hit for Pinoy Bloggers around the world.”

Is this another case of Malou Fernandez or Desperate Housewives? By this time, i guess we make up our minds. For all we know, Mrs. Aquino is definitely not a slut. She is known to be a highly respected individual, religious and with a decent upbringing.

A slut according to dictionary.com is an immoral or dissolute woman; prostitute.

The news came out and if you search the internet, people are fuming mad again. Over and over. In my opinion, is it because the issue came out while the issue of Desperate Housewives is still in the oven?

Say yes because the issue is as good as the DH’s?

Look at this photo?

Did you see any discrimination? Maybe? Go to a comedy bar, you’ll hear from the stand-up comedians of slurs to different people like politicians, actors, and other known individuals and what do we do? We just laugh on it because we know for a fact it’s merely a joke. Right?

Sometimes people are “just” over reacting to the issue. An exaggeration that we feel backstabbing us. Open your minds people. Should you broaden your knowledge about this issues? Are you just hallucinating? The Filiipino people nowadays are mature enough on facing relevant issues in our country. Let’s focus on it.

I’ve watched the video and I find it really funny. Really! It’s a video with a substance. The issue behind the question, Is America ready for a woman President?

I believe humor is sometimes insulting and yet degrading. Humor to different people is being understood in various meanings. And humor should be delivered in proper place.

And if there are people who deserves an apology, it should be the Former President Cory Aquino and her family. Peace!

Habang nagpipista ang lahat sa kontrobersyal na Desperate Housewives issue tungkol sa pag insulto nito sa ating Medical Schools dito sa Pilipinas, ito naman ang isang pamatid uhaw na balita para sa ating lahat.

A Filipino-American Senior Nurse Lily Maniquiz Lara based in Los Angeles, a nurse manager of the VA Greater Los Angeles Healthcare System’s Nursing Home Care Unit 213-2 was named one of the Best Nurse Leaders of the United States by winning the 2006 ADVANCE for Nurses Journal’s Best Nurse Leader award.

Vital to her winning was the successful implementation of a program that she created for the reduction of patient fall incidents. The program has been adopted as model for other fall prevention programs. “I was challenged by my senior leadership team to address the increasing patient fall incidents in our unit. What I did was, together with my multi-disciplinary staff, implement specific changes that became a four-pronged approach to reduce patient falls,” Lara said.
