                    [Title] => CAP officials file counter-affidavits at DOJ
                    [Summary] => 



Top officers of College Assurance Plans Phils. Inc. (CAP) denied any involvement in the alleged unlawful act committed by the pre-need firm, saying the charges levelled against them by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) are without basis.


In separate counter-affidavits filed at the Department of Justice, CAP officers said the SECcomplaint is fatally defective as it does not point to any specific act or omission on their part which would make them responsible for the alleged overselling of  CAP’s pre-need plans.

                    [Summary] => The Department of Justice (DOJ) has summoned the directors of College Assurance Plans Phils. Inc. (CAP) to a hearing on Oct. 11 to afford them the opportunity to explain the charges hurled against them by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).


Also asked to appear before the DOJ are SEC officials. It will be recalled that the SEC last month lodged a criminal complaint before the DOJ against directors and officers of CAP for unauthorized sale of pre-need plans in violation of the Securities Regulation Code.

                    [Summary] => Sixty years ago today, the United States ushered the atomic age by bombing Hiroshima. The atomic bomb used weighed only half as much as the largest aerial bombs used before 1945, but produced a detonation equal to a stalk of explosives the size of the Washington monument. Unfortunately, it did not convince Emperor Hirohito to surrender. So the Americans dropped a second bomb in Nagasaki. It was good that the second bomb convinced the Emperor  to surrender. Because the truth is that, at that point in time, the United States had only one more atomic bomb in research.
