- Misrepresentations
[Several sections of this entry have been deliberately omitted.]
Jimenez-David has written two more columns about the PGH rape case.
In the first one, she recalls an alleged conversation between the new UP College of Medicine Dean and the victim:
In a meeting with the new college dean, F was told that her request [to have an outside […]Popularity: 6% [?]
- SpamWars
Connie continues her battle against “comment spam”.
Apparently, the same bastards who think it’s good business practice to fill up your inbox with junk email have figured out a way to hit blog comments too. I’ve had no experience with “comment spam” but I’m following Connie’s lead and plan to install Jay Allen’s MT Blacklist as […]Popularity: 9% [?]
- Damn It, Jim…
… I’m a doctor, not a programmer.
I’m not a web standards zealot but I felt disappointed when I realized that the PGH Department of Medicine website does not validate. I also noticed that the designer still uses tables for layout purposes. Ugly, ugly code.
I wonder when they’re going to ask me to fiddle around with […]Popularity: 8% [?]
- Hospital Culture
Rowster blogs about a sexual harassment case at the Philippine General Hospital. The entry is based on two columns by Inquirer columnist Rina Jimenez-David entitled “Like a second shadow” and “Confronting a culture.” I’m actually surprised that the incident took this long to get to the major dailies. I do not know the victim personally […]

- All In A Day’s Work
We saved a woman’s life today. I say “we” because therapeutic outcomes rarely involve the actions of just a single individual. The contribution of the entire hospital staff — fellow residents, consultants, nurses, and orderlies — should never go unmentioned. My colleagues and I made the right decisions, moved as fast as we could, and […]

- Back Home
Well, I’m back. I can’t post all of the Vigan photos because most of what I took are really bad due to the poor weather conditions.
We bought and ate a lot of empanadas during our short stay. I must have gained another ten pounds back there. The “Vigan empanadas” being sold in some restaurants here […]Popularity: 7% [?]
- Bad Photo Day
Darn. It’s raining here in Vigan, so I can’t get any decent photos with my Zire 71.
The plaza and the commercial center are relatively deserted, partly because of the weather and partly because it’s All Souls’ Day. People are either staying indoors or flocking to the town cemeteries to visit the tombs of their dearly […]Popularity: 10% [?]
