The House of Representative was rocked by a bomb explosion this evening around 8pm Manila time. The reports said, three Congressmen were injured in the incident, 9 others and 1 dead.
One of the Congressmen said, they were having dinner with colleagues at the South Lounge, when they heard the explosion around 10 minutes after session adjourned at exactly 8:07 p.m. The blast came from a van parked on the driveway of the south wing of the Batasang Pambansa in Quezon City, where the House holds session, one of the staffs said. The explosion triggered a fire and caused the ceiling of the foyer to collapse. Twisted steel and debris were scattered at the blast site.
The story of Jane Walker is touching and an inspiration to all the Filipinos around the world. This British mom really touched my heart that’s why it drives me to write about her. She was called an Angel to save the Filipino children in Manila’s city dump, the Smokey Mountain.
Ito ang balitang bumulaga sa atin kaninang hapon dito sa Pilipinas. Former Joseph Estrada was given a full pardon ng ating magaling na Presidenteng Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. Ito daw ang pinakamahirap na desisyon na ginawa ni GMA sa buong buhay niya. Para nga ba sa ating lahat ang desisyong ito o para sa kanyang personal interest? Eksakto naman sa pagbubukas muli ng hearing tungkol sa ZTE deal na kung saan deretsahang ng isinangkot ng batang De Venecia si GMA sa issue. Magaling, magaling, magaling!

A young man who had a comfortable and achievement-adorned life in the US, left it all in search of true meaning to “life, freedom, purpose, and happiness” figuratively embodied in a “perfect golden coconut.” While in the US, he graduated Valedictorian of his high school class, received a full scholarship to one of the top US colleges, Rice University, interned at NASA for two terms, and is MENSA International qualified, to name a few of his accomplishments. He now lives as a “nomad” in the Philippines and attempts to try and understand various aspects of life and life itself. He maintains a blog to document his thoughts and photographs during his journey. His writings and ideas have good intentions and have potential for overall world improvement, which you will see from reading his blog.
“Para akong nuts o baliw na naghahanap ng ambisyon sa Pilipinas habang ang karamihang Pilipino ay nagkakandarapang pumunta sa Amerika”
The Sandigan Bayan court said, Former Philippine President, Guilty beyond reasonable doubt.
Ngayong umaga napanuod ko ang hatol kay Erap, Guilty ang binigay sa kanyan ng Sandigan Bayan. Tama ang aking hinala. Sa kabilang banda, nakakalungkot din naman dahil sa kanyang edad naparusahan ang dating Pangulo ng ating bansa sa mga paratang na idiniin sa kanya. Siya ay nabigyan ng Life Imprisonment Reclusion Perpetua, paliwanag ni Fortun, hindi ito pang habambuhay na pagkabilanggo, siya ay makukulong ng maximum na 40 years. Kung iisipin, parang habambuhay na din dahil matanda na si Erap (70 years old) at halos duon na lamang nya hihintayin ang kanyang kamatayan.
