Below are photos of the Immaculate Concepcion Church, Oton, Iloilo before and after Lady Cay-Cay, the only earthquake in the world that has a name, from the huge furrows appearing as if the land surface has been scratched by a giant chicken. "Cay-Cay" refers to a fowl rummaging for food on the ground using its feet. The West Panay Fault moved in January 25, 1948 destroying concrete structures throughout Panay including old Churches with a 9-intensity. They survived the Japanese and American bombs in WWII but not the tremors of Lady Cay-Cay. The government is erecting a P11.2-billion mega-dam in Calinog, Iloilo just 11-kilometers from the West Panay Fault in nearb

NUPL-Panay declares support for judiciary, impeachment rap vs P-Noy Public Friends Only Me Custom ma. diosa labiste Family See all lists... Iloilo, Iloilo City, Philippines Area Iloilo City, Philippines Area Go Back Iloilo City, July 21, 2014 ILOILO CITY – Wear black or peach in solidarity with judges and personnel of the judiciary as well as to support the move to impeach President Benigno Simon Aquino III, declared lawyer Janne Baterna, vice president for the Visayas of the National Union of Peoples’ Lawyers (NUPL). Atty, Baterna (standing) with Atty. Elias Guiloriza (seated in brong) with two lawyers from Nepal in black coat) during the !V Conference of Lawyers in Asia-Pacific (COLAP ) September 2010.

Hall of Justice Iloilo City, July 21, 2014   Where’s the yellow? The bumpkin who insists that official thievery disguised as DAP is legal appears to be howling in the wilderness in his call for Filipinos to rally behind him by wearing yellow – anything that has the color to include but not limited to ribbons, pendants, caps, shirts, etc. Today  at the Iloilo Hall of Justice nothing yellow shows up to support him who addressed the country last July 14, 2014 and uttered a de facto threat of a “constitutional crisis” ahead as the High Court scraps his motion for reconsideration and remains firm in striking down the DAP 13-0. The man quartered at the Pasig River who god almighty blessed with a bald pate bigger than a communion plate must be wishing to be somewhere else as court personnel including judges wore the colors he disliked – red, peach and black.  Nothing yellow. The pictures of court people here deliver that curt message.

Villanueva (standing) Despite the fury of typhoon Glenda that submerged much of, and toppled trees and electric poles in Metro Manila, Panay protest leaders are lucky their resource person in their one-day consultation, Raymund Villanueva, still made it to the airport. Villanueva, photojournalist for Bulatlat.com and director for radio, Kodao Productions, for the most part was the main resource person while I handled the question-and-answer portion from 1 to 2 pm. in Iloilo City with participants from different people's organizations. Bulatlat.com is an alternative on-line news/commentary page while Kodao, is an alternative on-line page that releases video documentaries. He handled many topics but may I sum it up to his call to his audience to be "creative" in informing and convincing the people on the justness of the democratic protest movement in all forms of venues -- protest rallies, media interviews, writing press statements, using culture and arts (so

(With downloaded photos. Apologies to their owners.) Flies are not just carriers of diseases. They have important role in the ecology.  They are pollinators thus, the food security for humans.  Jing Macias, my senior at the CICM Maryshore Seminary, now a retired manager of ECJ Farm, says the farm propagates flies to pollinate its fruit trees particularly durian and mangoes. It is interesting that the profits the orchard delivers to coffer of Danding Cojuangco, Jr. owner of ECJ Farm, partly come from the work of these buzzers that we often damn as irritants. Other enterprizing farmers in fact, culture flies for their maggots or larvae which are high grade protein, to feed their poultry or farmed fish. One reason why the stinking smell from dead rats don't torment as for long is because their carcasses are nibbled up within a day by the maggots. Can't imagine how would the world fare without flies.

Capitol, Iloilo City July 17, 2014 The pictures here show the other side of the nutrition month celebration of Iloilo Province. The first side, of course, is the set of photos depicting the “bongga” side – replete with balloons released,  ribbon cutting, forum on nutrition and breastfeeding, poster making contest for kids, and entertainment. This major face of the fete highlights a giant fast food chain as main sponsor, which to state it bluntly, should be lumped together with both foreign and locally owned quick chow restos for putting the health of people around the world at risk what with their toxic, artificial and even carcinogenic ingredients and preservatives. The other side of the nutrition awareness month celebration, of course, is already stated above as depicted by the pictures here a solitary makeshift kiosk put up by the LGU of San Miguel, Iloilo selling indigenous food and beverages – different rice cakes, coconut candy (bukayo), organic fruits and and earthen ket
