Physical examination revealed that sound is better transmitted in the area where the opacity is located, which means that it’s more solid than liquid (remember your high school physics, kids). Now, […]

- Presidential Blues
On September 21, 1972, Ferdinand E. Marcos declared martial law. Three decades later, after several “revolutions,” we still have a crook in office, a shaky economy, and a subpar health care system. I don’t blame my classmates for wanting to leave.
On a slightly related note, check out the The Philippine Presidency Project. I was hoping […]Popularity: 10% [?]

- My Uncle’s Fifteen Minutes of Infamy
My uncle, Nueva Vizcaya Representative Rodolfo Agbayani, has retracted his endorsement of the amended impeachment complaint against President Arroyo. I know my uncle to be a man of principle, and few from Nueva Vizcaya will say ill of his tenure as governor (you can’t please everyone). I know he has a good reason for withdrawing […]
