There was a time when locking the front door at night was more of a habit than a necessity. We checked the windows, turned off the lights, and slept with the quiet confidence that tomorrow would come just like any other day. Lately, that confidence has become harder to find. The recent killing of a young teacher in our city has shaken many of us—not simply because a life was taken, but because it happened in the one place where every human being should feel safest: home. When

The breaking news spread quickly across the nation. The Vice President had been impeached. For many Filipinos, that headline sounded like the end of the story. Constitutionally, it was only the beginning. One of the most common misunderstandings about impeachment is the belief that it is a single event. It is not. The Constitution divides impeachment into two distinct stages, assigning each to a different branch of government and a different constitutional responsibility. The

Marayo-rayo muna kita sa ciudad nin mga cuarenta minutos ang distancia na motorsiclo ang gamit na sasakyan. Maduman muna kita sa municipio nin Canaman ta igua man duman mga kaumahan asin mahiwas na salog. Ang mahiwas na salog na binabalyo sa may bandang Brgy. Fundado pasiring sa Brgy. Barobaybay kan Magarao. Pag pasiring ka sa Brgy. (Isla) San Nicolas, mahalat ka nin huruhalawig na panahon sa pantalan kan Brgy. San Francisco. Madalang na ang biyahe lalo na pag aldaw nin Domin

We were literally—and figuratively—shocked. Our CASURECO II electricity bill for June arrived with a jolt. My own business, a modest family enterprise along Baras Road in the fourth-class municipality of Canaman, Camarines Sur, was billed ₱14,495 for June. Just a month earlier, our bill was only ₱5,759. In April, it was ₱5,879. Never in decades of operating the store had we received an electricity bill this high. Was this still the lingering effect of the Middle East conflict

Tigsik ko an mga nangyayari sa kapalibutan, Grabeng takot asin kahaditan namamatean. Kan namamanwaan sa mga krimen, kararatan, Sa pwede mangyari sa mga kamot nin kriminal. Tigsik ko an bulan nin PWD ngunyan na bulan, May deperensiya sa hawak, ayuda dadagdagan. An mga kaakian na nagpapatherapy siring man, Orog tinatawan atensyon, mga may kakundian. Tigsik ko, mga ipigtatao kan gobyerno na ayuda, Kadakol na namamanwaan, napapasipara sana. Ta kun dai mo kaalyado, kapamilya an ta

THE relentless heat wave scorching the United Kingdom is not just another summer story. It is another unmistakable alarm from a planet that is steadily becoming less forgiving because of humanity’s neglect of the environment. For generations, Britain has been known for its mild weather. Yet today, temperatures exceeding 35 degrees Celsius have become increasingly common. Rivers and reservoirs are shrinking. Hosepipe bans are being enforced. Grasslands have turned into tinderb

Do you watch the ongoing Senate courtroom drama? I don’t. I have a mountain of chores, undone tasks, and a strong desire to protect my blood pressure from the daily influx of political stress. I would honestly prefer a quiet, blissfully uninformed life. Let them slug it out in the plenary for all I care. But because it happens to be the most relevant, unavoidable issue in the country right now, I am forcing myself to look. And what I am finding is a masterclass in the absurd

Atty., nagkaigwa kami kan kapitbahay ko nin mainit na diskusyon manungod sa boundary kan samong property. Bago maghale, anggot niyang sinabihan ako, "Gagadanon taka." Poon kaidto, natatakot na akong magluwas harong. Pwede daw akong magsangat nin kaso laban saiya dawa dai man talaga niya ako kinulugan? --- Iyo. Kun an pananakot seryoso asin may katuyuhan na takoton ka, an saimong kapitbahay pwedeng manimbag sa kasong Grave Threat sa irarom kan Article 282 kan Revised Penal Cod

Maaskad na title. Tataramon na nananamitan asin namamarong (word you can taste and smell). Kung dai mo naisip ang askad asin parong, baad may tada pa nin Covid ang isip mo. Suba lang. Sa history, ang patis bako man sa Pilipinas nagpoon, bako ining imbentong Pinoy. Segun sa sakong simpleng research, nagpoon ini sa Mesopotamia asin Greece kan 1700 BCE, na ang apod garum. Sa China, nagluwas ini sa mga records kan 544 CE, asin ang apod ninda kochi. Ano ta patis ang inooralayan ta

Have you ever noticed how quickly we decide who the smartest person in the room is? It usually isn't after checking credentials, reviewing experience, or weighing the evidence. More often, it's after hearing someone speak with complete confidence. Perhaps that's because confidence has a sound. It speaks without hesitation. It answers quickly. It leaves little room for doubt. It rarely says, "I'm not sure." Competence, on the other hand, sounds different. It asks questions bef

History tells us there will always be war. Peace, it seems, is often the interval during which nations gather strength. That is not cynicism, it is history. The world’s superpowers speak of peace while modernizing their arsenals. Rivals negotiate while expanding their military capabilities. Deterrence has become the language of stability, yet stability itself often rests upon the threat of unimaginable force. If peace is merely an intermission, what kind of civilization have

Tigsik ko an duwang epal sa Senado Sinda Boy Sili saka Caldero Caldero madunong kuno pero tonto Si Boy Sili an utak malasado!

Ni: Ryan Mostar Sa irarom kan 1987 Konstitusyon, an Presidente, Bise Presidente, Miyembro kan Supreme Court, Miyembro kan Constitutional Commissions, asin an Ombudsman sana an pwedeng haleon sa pwesto sa paagi nin impeachment. An House of Representatives igwa nin eksklusibong kapangyarihan na magpoon nin mga kaso nin impeachment, mantang an Senado igwa nin solamenteng kapangyarihan na magdangog asin magdesisyon sa mga ini. Kun makondena, matatanggal sa puwesto an opisyal asin

Tigsik ko ining buhay ta digdi sa kinaban, Kun sagkod noarin kita dai ta naaaraman. Kaya dapat preparado kun kita babawian, Kan buhay na sa Diyos sinublian sana man. Tigsik ko ining garo cancer sa sosyodad ta, Ini baga na haloy nang problema sa droga. Si mga ugat kaini biyong naglalangkaba na, Ta an nararamalan si mga sanga man sana. Tigsik ko an buhay kan iba sa mga pulitiko, Na namumugtak nang pirmi sa mga piligro. Pirmi na may huma sa buhay kan mga iniho. Hali sa mga kalab
