[Title] => Sandigan allows Erap to take witness stand on March 22
[Summary] => Ousted President Joseph Estrada will take the witness stand on March 22 in his plunder and perjury trial after the Sandiganbayan special division denied his petition to be allowed to testify on March 29.
Estrada has asked the Sandiganbayan that his court appearance be scheduled for March 29 instead of tomorrow.
Justice Diosdado Peralta, a special division member, ruled in open court that Estrada’s request to postpone his testimony until March 29 was "too long."

[Title] => ‘Erap not ready to take the stand’
[Summary] => Ousted President Joseph Estrada is not ready to take the witness stand on March 15.
Former senator Rene Saguisag, Estrada’s lead counsel, had informed the Sandiganbayan that his client had lost days of needed preparation following a surgery to remove a cyst in his left eye last Feb. 23.
"The principal accused’s eye operation caused the loss of a week of preparation so that our team feels we cannot in all probability be ready on March 15, 2006 for a day-long trial, for reasons beyond our control," Saguisag said in a two-page manifestation.

[Title] => Diabetic retinopathy can be prevented
[Summary] => Diabetic retinopathy is an eye disease due to complications of diabetes. If not treated and controlled early, this complication can lead to blindness.
But Dr. Amadeo Veloso Jr., one of Asian Eye Institute’s retina specialists, has good news: "A diabetic can actually prevent this complication from happening."
He emphasizes three things. One, good control of a patient’s blood sugar level with medications; two, exercise; and three, proper diet.
