Updates: SC CJ Renato Corona's Impeachment Trial

 

IF I AM SC CHIEF JUSTICE RENATO C. CORONA

If I am SC Chief Justice Corona I will resign.

Why? My appointment is questionable, to let President Aquino choose among the candidates of JBC, and to give this country peace.

If I am SC Chief Justice Corona I will waive all my legal rights to expedite the impeachment trial proceedings.

Why? If I truly believe that I served and did my job with all honesty, dedication, transparency and respect to the institution where I belonged, it will not be an issue.

If I am SC Chief Justice Corona I will command my counsels not to be so legally technical in the impeachment proceedings.

Why? It brings doubt than enlightenment and causes delay in the proceedings.

If I am SC Chief Justice Corona I will let my bank records be opened to public.

Why? If I have nothing to hide, it is not a violation against "bank secrecy law," it is allowed under the law in view of an impeachment trial, and not to create havoc again to people like what happened in former President Estrada's impeachment trial.

If I am SC Chief Justice Corona I will not ask the Supreme Court to stop the impeachment trial.

Why? It is the only forum and sole way where I can prove my innocence to the Filipino people.

BUT I am not SC Chief Justice Renato Corona.

Kris & James marriage annulled

It’s over! It is officially in the news that the marriage of Kris Aquino to James Yap was annulled. The lack of authority of the solemnizing officer is the pertinent reason for the annulment. Kris is very generous to James about his visiting rights and James cooperated very well in the separation of properties. Both Kris and James remained friends for the sake of their son, Bimby.

Kris won't ask for paternal support from James
Kris: James and I are friends
Kris-James marriage 'null and void'
Kris, James divide property
Kris: Yes, marriage to James annulled

Ultrasound Machines

What is an ultrasound machine? According to Wikipedia, diagnostic sonography (ultrasonography) is an ultrasound-based diagnostic imaging technique used for visualizing subcutaneous body structures including tendons, muscles, joints, vessels and internal organs for possible pathology or lesions. I am pretty sure many moms out there are familiar with the ultrasound they underwent during their pregnancies. Said machine is what they called obstetric sonography wherein we can take a look of the little angels in our tummies.


Basic question about ultrasound machines lies on its use. These machines can be used for diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. With the use of ultrasound, medical practitioners will be properly guided of the proper and exact interventional procedures to treat their patients on hand. In terms of diagnostic, best example I could give is the echocardiography being used by cardiologists to treat patients with heart ailments. Heart is one of the delicate parts of our body. Proper diagnosis must be performed by cardiologist with the help of echocardiography so us not to endanger the patient’s life. When it comes to therapeutic applications, ultrasound machines bring heat or agitation into the body. Two examples of this procedure are lithotripsy wherein focused ultrasound maybe used to break up kidney stones and phacoemulsification for cataract treatment.

Needless to say, ultrasound machines are very important especially in the field of medicine. Likewise, it is equally important that we buy ultrasound machines from a professional and trust worthy company to see to it that we are buying a machine that passed the safety guidelines and standards of the regulating body for such.

Updates on CJ Corona's Impeachment Trial

I always try to monitor the on-going impeachment trial of Supreme Court Chief Justice Renato Corona in the Senate either thru DZMM or ANC. Yesterday, it was BIR Commissioner Kim Henares who authenticated the Income Tax Returns of CJ Corona and his wife from 2006 to 2010 (2002-2005 not available since BIR has no copies of SC’s alpha lists for those years).

I respect Senator Miriam Santiago’s point but I think the time given to the prosecution to question further Commissioner Henares gave expectators a much clearer picture of what the prosecution is claiming about CJ Corona. Senator Ralph Recto came to question also the witness and found out the truth about on what records did the BIR only have pertaining to CJ Corona and what they don’t have.

Will those records show betrayal of public trust and ill-gotten wealth? That will rely on the authorities who will scrutinize the documents and other supporting evidences and witnesses in the future.

Nevertheless, let us all be patient with how the impeachment is going on and give our trust and confidence to our Senate that they will make a just and wise decision over this trial. Let us all pray.

Lambunao's Binanog Festival

The BINANOG FESTIVAL is a traditional Philippine celebration and courtship dance performed by the Bukidnon tribe of Lambunao. The dance involves movements in imitation of the flight of the hawk or banog, after which the dance is named. It is performed in honor of the Sto. Nino in a festival that takes place during the 2nd Sunday of January. The dance actually consists of three dance forms: the Binanugan, wherein the movements of the birds are imitated; the Inagong sayaw-sayaw, which is a form of celebration dance; and; the Dinagmay, which is a courtship dance. The rhythmic beating of drums and gongs accompanies the dance.

According to history, the Binanog dance and the Bukidnons of Lambunao and Central Panay, tackles the richness of the Bukidnons of Lambunao in terms of the culture and the tradition that make Binanog dance one of the strong pillars of its claim of wealth. It also presents the theories of the origin of these people and shows their location and distribution.

The dance can be a mode of worship, or a courtly pastime. With urbanization contributing to the decline in the art, a program for its revival was launched couple of years ago with the creation of the Binanog Festival.The gem of the exhibition is the tribe competition that highlights the mating of banog birds accompanied by the symbolic beating of the gong, synchronizing with the vibrant movement emphasizing footwork and speed. The dance reaches its climax as the female dancers catches her male partner using a handkerchief.
