[Title] => Short on cash? Try rent-a-coffin
[Summary] =>
There’s rent-a-car. So why not rent-a-coffin?
With many Filipinos living in poverty and thus, cannot afford metal caskets for their departed love ones, a 42-year-old Filipino inventor has come up with the idea of renting them out.
Antonio Andes thought of undertaking a coffin rental business after he was unable to provide a decent casket for his sister when she died, aggravating the pain of his loss.

[Title] => Region 2 fast turning into ‘tilapia country’
[Summary] => Cagayan Valley is gradually but consistently turning into a "tilapia country."
This is achieved by the rapid growth of the tilapia industry in the region over the past few years.
Such growth can be attributed considerably to scientific interventions provided by the government, particularly the Department of Science and Technology (DOST) through the Consultancy on Agricultural Productivity Enhancement (CAPE) Program of the DOST-Technology Application and Promotion Institute (TAPI) and the DA-Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR).

[Title] => An inventive mind
[Summary] => Panfilo Rieta has been baffling his doctors for the last 11 years when he was first diagnosed with emphysema, an incurable disease. Four years ago, his doctors told him he could go any time. Rieta is now 72 years old and still a happy smoker.
A major factor in Rieta’s continued good health is his own invention, a portable laser equipment. "I tried it on myself and then on my neighbors in Bulacan," he said. "I’ve had an 80% success rate on my 40,000 volunteer ‘patients’, many of whom were terminal cases."
