To understand what the Senior High School (SHS) Core Subject called “Reading and Writing” is all about, we should not look only at its course description but at the entire Curriculum Guide for English, starting with Kindergarten. The reason is that all subjects are now spiraled.

This distasteful impeachment trial has finally come to its terminal point.

It may range from the seemingly innocuous, as in rounding off an amount to the nearest bigger whole figure, to the grossly opportunistic, as in doubling the actual amount.

Why?

The Church officials should make their arguments very clear to all. Understandably, they want to guarantee that teaching about sex will not lead to wanton disregard for the sacredness of sex for procreation. Are we reading the core of their objection to public sex education correctly?

It could have been just an ordinary visit, preparatory to a family holiday outing (passed off as official travel, according to critics). The official expressed goals for the Papal visit were articulated by GMA's spokespersons.

GMA, however, came out of that simple visit acting as a spokesperson for Pope Benedict who was obviously delighted with the gift of the recent passage of the abolition of the death penalty in the Philippines.

I’m still getting e-mails and text messages about that statue and its setting in the Luneta. Apparently, a metal version of the huge statue is being cast to replace the plastic one. Be that as it may, metal or plastic, the point is that the statue and its setting are not appropriate for that site. A good number of Cebuanos believe that the great warrior should stay in Mactan (and that his monument there be improved and better maintained) while many here prefer that Jose Rizal be kept the doctor-in-residence of his eponymous park.
