Bingit si Bangit!ANG salitang bingit sa bisaya

ay tumutukoy sa mga paslit naiyakin o dili kaya sa mga taongmadalas magreklamo. Malinaw

na si Bangit ay isang bingitsapagkat nitong mga nakaraangaraw ayaw niyang tumigil sapagdadaldal ng kanyangsentimyento dahil sa hindi pag-extend ni incoming PresidentNoynoy Aquino sa kanyangtermino bilang AFP Chief.

Sa mga ginawangpagpapa-interview ni Bangitsa media at sa kanyang mga binitiwang salita nitong mganakaraang araw, lumilitaw nagusto pa rin niyang kumapit

na parang tuko sa posisyonng AFP Chief.

Sa halip na magdadakdaksa kase-sentimyento dapatmagpasalamat na lang si Bangitdahil sa sobrang pagkasuwerteniya kumpara sa ibang mgakasamahan niya sa AFP.Masuwerte siya at nagingadopted member ng kanyangPMA Class 78 si PangulongGloria Arroyo.

Masuwerte siya at siyaynaluklok sa iba pang mga

makapangyarihang posisyonsa AFP tulad ng Chief ng Presi-dential Security Group, Com-manding General ng 2nd InfantryDivision ng Phil. Army (PA),

Commander ng Southern LuzonCommand at CommandingGeneral ng PA. Lahat ito ay biyayang natanggap niya dahilsa pagiging malapit kay Arroyo.

Masuwerte siya at natikmanniyang maging AFP Chief, angultimate dream ng bawatopisyal ng AFP. Masuwerte siyasa kabila ng maraming mas

senior sa kanya, partikular naang mga taga Class 77, siyapa rin ang hinirang bilangChief ng AFP. Sa muli, ito aydahil sa kanyang pagigingpaborito ni Arroyo.

Sana nakuntento na si Bangitsa kanyang mga natikmangbiyaya. Sana nang lumabas angresulta ng nakaraang eleksyonna si Noynoy Aquino na angnananalo, ang pinakamortal nakalaban ni Arroyo na kanyangpadrino, sana nagdeklara

siyang kusang magre-resign sakanyang puwesto pagsapit ng June 30, tulad ng ginawa niPNP Chief Gen. Jesus Versoza lalo pat alam niyang sa

umpisa pa lang ay wala nangtiwala sa kanya si Aquino dahilkilala siyang super dikit kayArroyo. Kapag ginawa niya iyon

mas bumilib pa sana sa kanyaang marami at lumabas siyangkagalang-galang, at hindi isang bingit na kaawa-awa.

Sabi pa nga ng isangkaibigang opisyal ng AFP sainyong SHOOTER, kumukuhalang daw ng simpatiya si Bangitsa mga sundalo kayanagpapaawa effect ito. Nangtanungin ko naman angnasabing kaibigan kung anoang agenda ni Bangit sakanyang pagpapaawa effect?

Sinabi ng aking kaibigan na baka umaasa pa raw ngmilagro.

Pero sabay dugtong namanniya na hindi papayag ang mgasundalo dahil overwhelmingang botong nakuha ni Aquinosa nakaraang eleksyon. Ang ibigsabihin ng aking kaibigan, disusunod ang mga sundalo sailigal na utos at pagkikilos.

PHILIPPINE National Po-lice Chief Director GeneralJesus A. Versoza has ordereda crackdown on spoilers ofthe environment as he under-

scored the need for the citizenryto be empowered in sharingwith both the national and lo-cal governments the responsi- bility to protect the environ-ment.

Versoza made the remarksas the PNP signed a memoran-dum of agreement with theUniversity of Sto. Tomas Medi-cal Association headed byUSTMAA 1985 MedicineBatch/Class led by its presi-dent and top cardiologist An-

thony Leachon.Leachon is also the regent

coordinator for advocacy andmedia relations of the Philip-pine College of Physicians.

Versoza was represented byPNP officials led by 1980 Medi-cine batch alumnus Brig. Gen-eral Francis Altarejos, PNP Di-rector for Health Services andGeneral Nicanor Bartolome ofthe PNP Police Community Re-lations Group (PNP-PCRG)

Versoza stressed that police-men must always be protectorsof the people and nature, not-ing that the PNPs PulisMakakalikasan Program has been in place to heighten pub-

lic awareness about protectingMother Earth.

The Pulis MakakalikasanProgram encourages all police-men to plant trees and protectthe remaining natural re-sources in their respective ar-eas of jurisdictions.

Versoza reiterated that thepolice leadership will take thelead in enforcing environmen-

tal ordinances. We, your po-lice, do not only protect the pub-lic but our environment aswell.

The Pulis Makakalikasanand Scubasurero projects aretwo of the most successful pro-grams of the PNP in environ-mental protection. Theseprojects involve massive treeplanting and clean-up of seas.

Through the years, thepolices role has taken on newdimensions. The PNP has be-

come not only the keeper ofpeace but also an advocate fora greener environment,"

BUONG paggalang konghinahangaan si Maam LeilaDe Lima. Maraming ibig

sabihin para sa akin angsalitang sexy at lahat yun aymga kahanga-hangangkatangian ng isang babae.

First year college ako saLaw school sa San Beda nang una kong nakilala si Profes-sor Leila de Lima. Marami kaming mga bagitong estudyantenoon na humahanga sa kanya.

Una sa lahat dahil magaling siyang propesora, mahusaymagturo at sexy pa. Sabado ng hapon ang klase namin saStatutory Construction, dalawang oras namin kasama siMaam Leila.

Super enjoy ang klaseng yun dahil magaling magturo angaming guro, palabiro, masaya, at madaling patawanin.

Kaibigan ng buong klase si Leila de Lima. Pero kwidaw ka,matapang ang babaeng ito.

Mahigpit sa klase at strikto sa lessons. Minsan, naalalako, may isang classmate kami na mali ang sagot atpinagtawanan ng klase, nahuli ako ni Maam Leila natumatawa din kaya buong oras niya akong pinag-recite bilangparusa. Pero patas magbigay ng grade si Maam. Sikreto nalang at hindi ko na sasabihin sa inyo kung ano ang grade nanakuha ko sa klase nya.

Natutuwa ako sa balitang si Maam Leila ang magigingSecretary of Justice ni Pangulong Noynoy Aquino. Proudako na minsan ay naging bahagi sya ng buhay ko bilangestudyante, bilang abogado.

Hanggang ngayon aral na natutunan ko sa klase niyaang kahalagahan ng kredibilidad ng isang abogado. Angklase namin kay Maam Leila na Statutory Construction aytungkol sa maayos at tamang interpretasyon ng batas.Mahalaga ito para sa isang Justice Secretary. Magaling ditosi Maam Leila kaya sigurado akong magiging asset siya atmakakatulong ng malaki sa administrasyong Aquino bilangtimon ng Departamento ng Hustisya ng bansa.

Higit sa lahat malinis ang reputasyon ni Leila de Lima,mataas ang kredibilidad at kilalang patas humusga. KahitCommission on Human Rights Chairman siya ngadministrasyong Arroyo, hindi matatawaran ang kanyangkredibilidad na hindi nadungisan. Wala siyang political colorat hindi identified kahit na kaninong nasa mataas nakapangyarihan.

A breath of fresh air, sabi nga. Si Leila De Lima ang klaseng personalidad na magiging positibo ang epekto saadministrasyon ni Aquino. Bago siya napunta sa CHR, alamng marami na isa siyang magaling na elections lawyer.Napakagaling ng pagkakapiling ito ni P.Noy kay Maam kopara Justice Secretary.

Sayang lang at maiiwan ni Maam ang CHR na umangatang reputasyon nang hawakan niya. Pero mas malaki namanang magiging kontribusyon niya sa Department of Justice.Watch out for this lady lawyer Leila De Lima she will goplaces at alam kong magiging kahanga-hanga siyang pub-lic servant.

Mag-text po kayo sa akin tungkol sa usaping ito sa mga

Leachon said they expectthe project with the PNP to cre-ate greater social awareness forthe public to care for the envi-ronment.

GMA: Get Maguindanao witness killersPRESIDENT Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo

yesterday ordered police and the militaryto arrest the killers of the key witness in thegruesome Maguindanao massacre last year.

Deputy presidential spokesperson Prof.Gary Olivar said the Palace is outraged

by the latest development in the case againstthe Ampatuan clan.

We have directed our security forces totake all necessary measures to apprehendthe perpetrators, utilizing all the specialpowers available under the state of emer-gency that the president declared and con-tinues to maintain in the province. Olivarsaid.

It will be recalled that the President gaveher nod to the retention of the state of emer-gency in Maguindanao, Sultan Kudarat andSouth Cotabato upon the recommendationof the defense officials and the DILG in thewake of the persistent threats of privatearmed groups in the region.

Olivar reacted to reports that key wit-ness, Suwaib Upham, in the trial of theAmpatuans has been shot dead.

Upham admitted to have taken part in

the killing of 57 people, including 31 jour-nalists on November 23, 2009. He claimedthat his former employers, the Ampatuans,planned the brutal killings.

Lawyer Harry Roque, on the other hand,said the killing of Upham last week inMaguindanao could potentially weaken thecase against the Ampatuan family.

Uphams death comes two months af-ter an uncle of another witness was alsoshot and killed, reportedly to silence andcow those who would speak out againstthe accused.

Meanwhile, the Department of Justicesaid they still have to validate and cross-

examine the test imonies of a supposednew witness, who is claiming he has in-side information on the massacre of 57people in Maguindanao province lastyear.

Assistant Chief State Prosecutor Rich-ard Fadullon said the DoJ could not imme-diately take and use someone as witnessas there is a need for validation to deter-mine his knowledge about the crime andhis motives. Ampie Galpo/Alex Balcoba

CELEBRATION of life, and not death, was how fans describe todayscommemoration of the first death anniversary of the only King of PopMichael Jackson.

Most fans moved on from grieving to reminiscing on Jacksonsmemoriesfond memories to be exact.

Erin Jacobs once traded her brand new bicycle for tickets tosee Michael Jackson. Now, more than 25 years later, it's hertime, organizational skills and gasmoney that she's giving to the Kingof Pop.

As an organizer of two major fangroups, Jacobs is just one of thou-sands of supporters keepingJackson's legacy alive along withthe pursuit of justice for his untimelydeath a year ago today.

Since then, the singer's notori-ously loyal followers have tradedvigils at the hospital and familyhome for pilgrimages to his tomband protests at the courthouse where

the doctor charged with killing Jackson will be tried.It's absolutely humbling that he has so much support from

fans, Jacobs said in a recent interview.A travel agent who lives in Yorba Linda, California, Jacobs

made her first 50-mile (80- kilometer) trip to the Forest Lawncemetery in Glendale, California, shortly after Jackson wasburied there in September. It was a personal trip.

These days, Jacobs has gone on to coordinate monthly pil-grimages to the cemetery by the Official Michael Jackson Fansof Southern California.

Hundreds are expected at Forest Lawn on the date Jack-

son passed away to commemorate Jackson's death. Thesingers tomb inside the cemeterys gothic Great Mauso-leum remains closed to the public, and Friday's memorialwon't change that.

But through the efforts of Jacobs and others, it's become aplace where Jacksons international fan base comes to grieve.Many who can't make it in person send letters, poems, art-work and other gifts so that Jacobs and others can deliver themto the cemetery, where they are placed at the singer's tombuntil new items arrive.

A year later, it feels like it was yesterday, Jacobs said.

Another focal point for Jackson fans has become the down-town Los Angeles courthouse where Dr. Conrad Murray will

AAThe le

be tried on an involuntary manslaughter charge for Jacksonsdeath.

On hearing days, fans wearing sequined gloves and T-shirtscalling for justice wait for hours clutching signs denouncing

Murray and shout at him for the briefmoments it takes him to walk fromthe curb to the front door.

Johnell Johnson, 19, an actressfrom Fontana, California, woke upat 4:30 a.m. to get to the courthousein time for a recent midday hearingin Murray's case. Wearing a vintagepin from Jacksons Bad era, Johnson said it was important forher to be there to support Jacksonsfamily.

It's a sentiment echoed by manyothers who try to attend the pro-

ceedings. Only a handful of people are allowed into the court-room, but others are content to shout their support to Jackson'sparents and siblings, who occasionally stop to hug or speak tofans. At the hearing earlier this month, the singer's mother,Katherine, carried roses that fanshanded her.

Fans at the cemetery Fridayhope to bring more than 3,000roses, Jacobs said, although offi-cials don't want the memorial toinclude the release of doves or bal-

loons, as was originally planned.None of this fan passion is re-

ally new. Jackson's supportershave long been among the mostdevoted and vocal of anyentertainer's in recent memory.More than 1,200 people were out-side the Santa Maria, California,courthouse in 2005 when thesinger was acquitted of all countsin a child-molestation trial. Last

year thousands flocked to the hos-pital where Jackson was pro-

nounced dead, and throngs remained out-side the family's home for weeks.

Friday's anniversary is ostensibly a fan

affair the singer's estate, which con-trols Jackson's music and likeness hasnot sanctioned anyevents, and whilesome family mem- bers have thrownsupport behind apaid gala in BeverlyHills, California, onSaturday night,there hasn't been a

formal family an-nouncement of trib-ute.

Several of thosewho protested out-side the courthouseJune 14 were planninga variety of events,from the staging ofa massive Thrillertribute to a rally seek-

ing justice plannedfor downtown Los

Angeles on June 26.Taaj Malik, who is organizing the rally

and maintains several fan groups on

Facebook, was among the first fans to ar-rive outside the singers rented mansionwhen news of hish o s p i t a l i z a t i o nbroke. She recalledrecently that she hadtears in her eyes asshe traveled the 50miles from neighbor-ing Orange County.

A Jackson fan since

her childhood inBritain, Malik saidshe prefers to focuson gaining justice for Jackson than on hergrief. I've ignoredit, said Malik, whoalong with Jacobs isa member of thegroup Justice 4 MJ.I've blocked it. I

refuse to let it comein to me.

New Jackson video gameMICHAEL JACKSON fans will be able

to moonwalk next to the King of Pop in anew video game to be released this holi-day season by Ubisoft Entertainment.

The as-yet-unnamed game will beamong the first to use new motion-detect-ing camera systems to be available laterthis year for Microsoft's Xbox 360 andSony's PlayStation 3. The announcementwas made Monday at the E3 video gameshow in Los Angeles.

The game will also work with hand-heldcontrollers on Nintendo's Wii and on thesmaller Nintendo DS and PSP portable

console from Sony.* * *Michael Jackson had dozens of hits,

but his most popular one wasn't a solosmash or a tune with his brothers. It wasa song with another icon.

Billboard says Say Say Say, his 1983hit with Paul McCartney, is the most popu-lar Jackson song. That was followed byBillie Jean, the Jackson 5s I'll BeThere, Beat It and Rock with You.

Billie Jean was at No. 1 for sevenweeks, while Say Say Say held the top

spot for six weeks. But the McCartney-Jackson hit stayed in the top 10 longer.

IT happens like clock-work. Every year, kids andparents dont just have to

contend with the stress ofschool opening, they alsohave to brace themselvesfor an infestation of themost embarrassing kindhead lice.

Often, exposure toschool activities and the in-creased interaction withclassmates raise the like-l ihood of Pediculosis orhead lice infestation. In fact,a research study conductedin 2006 by the global re-

search firm GfK NOP re-vealed that 59 percent ofPhilippine households suf-fer from head lice.

While 34 percent of el-ementary school children inpublic schools are infected,Mrs. Zeny Soriano, Re-search & Development Con-sultant of Lamoiyan Corp.,makers of Hapee Tooth-paste and Licealiz Sham-poo, says that incidents ofhead lice in suspicion are

as bad as when we go topublic schools. She warns,Everybody is susceptible

What to do when kuto epidemic hits your childs schoolregardless of age and socio-economic class.

The best way to prevent

kuto from spreading is toteach kids the basics ofgood grooming and hygiene.Children wil l learn to becautious in sharing theirpersonal items, like combs,brushes, headbands,hairclips, pony ties, capsand towels, with their class-mates if theyre taught todo the same at home. Kidslearn by example so its bestif they see Mom, Dad, Ateor Kuya using their own

brushes and towels. Teachthem to be extra cautiousin sharing personal groom-ing items as they are theeasiest way for bacteria andother harmful externalitiesto spread.

If possible, keep yourchildrens hair short. If not,tie their hair neatly in a bun,ponytail or pigtails. DuringP.E. or recess in school, theywill have less hair flying aroundwhen they play with their

schoolmates. This will reducethe likelihood of your child tobe infested by head lice.

When you see your childfrequently scratching his orher head, immediately

check for lice or lice eggs,also called nits or lisa. Liceare wingless, typically flat-bodied insects with seg-mented antennae, modifiedmouth parts, and has sixshort legs with claws. Theseclaws pierce the skin. Themouth parts suck the bloodwhile secreting saliva,which intensifies itching.Nits or lisa, on the otherhand are attached to humanhair through specialized

saliva. Nits are typicallypale or white in color; if thenit appears brown, it isdead.

At the first sign of nitsor kuto on your childs hair,immediately apply a head-l ice treatment shampoo;preferably one made fromnatural ingredients.Lamoiyans Licealiz Sham-poo contains the active in-gredient Pyrethrin; naturallyderived from Chrysanthe-

mum flower extracts. De-partment of Education(DepEd) and the Philippine

Dermatological Societysources endorse Pyrethin assafe and reliable in remov-

ing head-lice and their eggs.In prescribed doses, the

Pyrethin-formulated LicealizShampoo is safe and effec-tive even for use of childrenas young as six years. Itis applied on the hair like aregular shampoo. For bestresults leave it on the hairfor ten minutes before rins-ing. If your kids have headlice, the recommended ap-plication is twice a week fortwo weeks. To prevent head

lice from reoccurring, sim-ply use it once a week.Unlike other head l ice

treatment shampoos,Licealiz contains a hair con-ditioning formulation thatkeeps hair soft and healthyafter use. Licealiz has alsobeen made more affordable.It is priced up to 50 percentlower than other brands toensure you can continuewith the preventive follow-up treatment. It is also avail-

able in more convenient andeven more affordable 10mlsachets.

Metro traffic accidentsdown by 18 percent

THE number of trafficaccidents in Metro Manilahas gone down signifi-cantly during the first fivemonths of the year, accord-ing to the Road Safety Unit(RSU) of the MetropolitanManila Development Au-thority (MMDA).

Reports generated bythe Metro Manila AccidentReporting and AnalysisSystem (MMARAS)showed a decrease of al-most 18 percent in thenumber of road accidentsfor the period January to

May. This year the re-corded accidents were20,151 compared to lastyears 24,417. Motorcycle-related traffic accidents

have the highest rate.As with the case last

year, most of the accidentshappened in QuezonCity followed by Manila. Pateros posted the leastnumber of accidents.

The figures can be at-tributed to several factors.Quezon City has the big-gest land area in MetroManila and three out ofthe seven major roadssuch as Epifanio DelosSantos Avenue (EDSA),Commonwealth Avenue, and Quezon Avenue are

located within the city. Itis also considered as oneof the central businessdistricts with high socialand economic activities.

THE Action and Soli-darity for Empowerment

of Teachers (ASERT) hasasked Education Secre-tary Mona Valisno togive them definite dateas to when they wouldreceive their honorariaon the recently con-cluded national census.

The group claimedthat each teacher whohelped conduct thecensus, which endedlast June 11, should getP11,500 but it seemedthey are barking at thewrong tree.

The Department ofEducation (DepEd)said the teachers whoparticipated in the lastcensus should bringup their concern to theNational Statistics Of-fice (NSO) since it wasthe agency that con-tracted them for thecensus and are like-wise responsible for re-leasing their compen-sation.

But DepEd Under-

secretary JonathanMalaya has assuredthe group that Valisnowould be very muchwilling to assist themgiven the limited timeremaining for her stayat the agency.

It was learned that DeLa Salle University presi-dent Armin Luistro, whoaccepted President-electBenigno Aquino III's in-vitation for him to jointhe new administration,

is set to take over theDepEd leadership.Malaya assured the

complaining teacherscould have an audi-ence with DepEd offi-cials in the next fewdays.

He reminded theteachers to bringdocuments to provethat their pay had yetto arrive as several re-ports disclosed that thedelayed paymentshappen only in a

case-to-case basis.Marco Lorenzana

Our Daily BreadOur Daily BreadOur Daily BreadOur Daily BreadOur Daily BreadThe film Miracle tells the true story of the

1980 US Olympic ice hockey team as it marchesto an improbable gold medal. At the outset of the

story, coach Herb Brooks is shown selecting theplayers for his team. When he gives assistantcoach Craig Patrick a list of names he has cho-sen, Craig says in surprise, Youre missing someof the best players. Brooks responds, Im notlooking for the best players, Craigjust the rightones.

Brooks knew that individual talent would takethe team only so far. A willingness to fit into hisstyle of selfless play would be far more impor-tant than talent. Clearly, team success, not indi-vidual glory, was the priority.

The biblical call to service has a similar em-phasis. In Gods purposes, each believer does hisor her part, but the results are team-oriented. After

explaining the wide differences in the spiritual giftsof believers, Paul says, the manifestation of theSpirit is given to each one for the profit of all (1 Cor.12:7). When we use the skills God gives us, Hispurposes are accomplished, and He gets the glory.In Gods service, its not about being the best, themost talented, or the most gifted. Its about beingthe right peoplethe ones God set . . . in the body(v.18)joining together to serve the same team.

Christ builds His church with differentstones

And makes each one secure;All shapes and sizes fit in place

To make His church endure. Anon.

There are no unimportant people in the bodyof Christ.

The President wantssomeone who can forge aharmonious relationshipwith the Philippine Olym-pic Committee. And hethinks Jaworski is the man,said the source.

Of course, there will bedifferences in opinions. Butthis relationship betweenthe two gentlemen would goalong the Presidents wish,he added.

Last week, former Manilarepresentative and Philip-pine Sports Commission(PSC) chairman HarryAngping submitted hiscourtesy resignation toPresident-elect BenignoNoynoy Aquino.

Angping urged Aquino toappoint immediately thenew head of the governmentsports agency because there

will be only four months left before the 2010 AsianGames in Guangzhou,Chi na .

He said that the Novem- ber date of the quadrennialAsian event makes the as-sumption of the new chair-man of the PSC very ur-gent .

There is little time left before the Asian Games. Soin my resignation, I includedan appeal for the President-elect Noynoy Aquino to ap-point immediately the newhead of the PSC, Angpingsaid.
