substances in accordance with the International Maritime Dangerous Goods Code (IMDG Code); Annex IV prohibits the discharge of sewage by all ships except those under 200 grt carrying 10 persons or fewer’and ANNEX V prohibits the discharge

of garbage (or rubbish or trash) by all ships.

The bill also makes clear and definite delineation of roles, duties and responsibilities of various government instrumentalities related to marine and coastal management.

Another salient provision of HB 861is the establishment of a Marine Pollution Adjudication Board (MPAB) under the DOTC which has quasi-judicial powers and executive jurisdiction over all marine pollution cases.

Among the proposed laws Fortun filed in the House of Representatives, HB 861 is his second on environment protection.

The first seeks the protection, rehabilitation and management of Mt. Mayapay, Butuan City’s revered landmark, from continuous degradation and restore its biodiversity and ecosystem.

development interventions the DILG will be providing to enhance the capacities of technical personnel directly involved in said.

The trainers included Engr. Renato L. Lorenzo of the Water and Sanitation Services Unit of DILGOPDS and Project Consultant Ramon L.

Dela Torre.

Also in the training were some representatives from the Water and Sanitation Hub (WATSAN Hub), composed of Fr. Saturnino Urios University, Propegemus Foundation Inc., and Bayugan Water District.

WATSAN hub is a local

pool of water and sanitation experts organized in various localities across the country.

It was hoped that the trainings will improve and fast-track the implementation of the water supply projects.

UTUAN CITY – Rep. Lawrence Lemuel Fortun (1st District, Agusan del Norte has sought the protection of marine and coastal resources from pollution of ships, as he filed a bill on the matter.

House Bill No. 861 (An Act to Prevent and Control Pollution from Ships, Provide Penalties Therefor and for Other Purposes) aims to remedy the shortcomings of Presidential Decree 979 and seeks to implement the provisions of MARPOL 73/78 (International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships 1973), as amended

by Protocol 1978.

According to Fortun, while PD 979, or the Marine Pollution Decree of 1976, was promulgated in 1976 to address calls for protecting marine and coastal resources from ships’ pollution, the decree

“has become too general in its implementing regulation or standard and no longer responsive to the prevalent threat of pollution from ships.”

The Senate has ratified five of the six annexes of MARPOL 73/78: Annex 1 prohibits discharge of oil tankers or any ship carrying oil as cargo with respect to oily waste coming from machinery spaces; Annex II prohibits the discharge of noxious liquid substances by chemical tankers or any ships that carry noxious liquid substances in bulk; Annex III prohibits the carriage of harmful sub-

Butuan City – Technical staff from provincial, municipal and city engineering and planning offices Caraga Region underwent a skills enhancement seminar-workshop on Detailed Engineering Design (DED) Preparation, Procurement, and Fund Management.

Conducted by the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) and the Office of Project Development Services (DILG-OPDS), the activity was held on August 6-9, this year, at Samping Avenue, this city.

They come from the 22

local government units that are recipient of water systems, under the Bottom-Up Planning and Budgeting (BUB) program.

Surigao poll board grills ‘questionable’ voters

By Roel Catoto of MindaNews

SURIGAO CITY - Election Registration Board (ERB) here has conducted a series of hearings involving “questionable” registrants for the Barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan elections this October.

Lawyer Irish Novern Pasco, Commission on Elections (Comelec) supervisor here, said the ERB has summoned at least 313 persons from different barangays whose registration for the upcoming elections have been questioned.

The ERB is composed of the Comelec, the Department of Education and the Civil Registrar’s Office.

Pasco said the questionable registrants involve 193 voters in Barangay Talisay, 20 in Danawan, eight in Alang-Alang, 12 in Sugbay, 8 in Cabongbogan, 14 in Aurora, 26 in Anomar, 23 in Lisondra and 15 in Orok.

He said the ERB hearings started last Tuesday and expected to be completed this Friday.

Pasco, who sits as ERB chair, said that concerned residents petitioned the registration of the voters, who will be given chances to explain their side before the board.

Most of the petitioned registrants are from the island-village of Talisay, Pasco said, adding they arrived in the island to work at a mining company.

“Most of them are securities and staff of the Shuley Mine in Nonoc Island who wanted to reside in this particular village,” he told MindaNews Wednesday.

Pasco said that to become a legitimate voter in one village, one has to reside there for at least 6 months.

He added they will release the exact number of registrants approved or denied for the upcoming elections here after the board finishes its hearing tomorrow, Friday. (RoelCatoto/MindaNews/ jdelpf )

Across Mindanao Police nab man with bomb-making parts

thursday | august 22, 2013

By GERRY GORIT Staff Member

CAGAYAN de Oro City The Cagayan de Oro City Police Office has filed a case for illegal possession of explosives against a certain Rodel del Puerto of Baungon, Bukidnon, who was arrested Monday evening.

Del Puerto had ordered drinks at a bar but refused to pay, prompting the owner to call the police station at Divisoria.

The responding policemen nabbed Del Puerto before the latter could flee with his backpack.

Police saw a piece of metal protruding from the backpack, which prompted them

to order Del Puerto to open his backpack.

The metal turned out to be a chisel but the backpack also contained suspicious chemical compound which turned out to be ammonium nitrate.

The backpack also contained two non-electric blasting caps and assorted pieces of rock.

Sr. Insp. Henry Cay-as, Divisoria police chief, said the confiscated items were sent to the police crime laboratory where it was determined to be possible ingredients for an improvised explosive device.

Cay-as said Del Puerto was also slapped with an estafa case of the bar owner

who said that the suspect did not pay for the drinks worth P260.

The suspect is now detained at the Maharlika jail of the Cagayan de Oro City Police Office but the offense is bailable.

Del Puerto said the items he carried were for his uncle at a mining area at the border of Cagayan de Oro and Bukidnon.

Police in the city are on high alert for the fiesta activities following the July 26 bombing at Limketkai Center.

People in crowded areas who will be watching fiesta activities are not allowed to wear caps and dark sunglasses and not allowed to carry backpacks.

Think a minute…You’ve probably heard the expression “A leopard can’t change its spots.” This, of course, is true of leopards. But is it true of people? Can people change? Are we humans just creatures of habit? Do we not have any control over our actions and habits?

One guy said, “Bad habits are like a comfortable bed: they’re easy to get into, but hard to get out of.” Someone else said: “The chains of habits are too small to feel until they’re too strong to break.” So ‘breaking the See habit, page 5

Nur’s Bangsamoro Republik I was not surprised when I heard MNLF CHAIRMAN NUR MISUARI a few days ago declaring independence for a “Bangsamoro Republik”. I recall writing an article in this corner many months ago entitled ;”DO NOT DISPARAGE MISUARI”. He assembled his thousands of followers in a show of force then in a horse race track in Davao City to make known his opposition to the MILF peace agreement. I had a suspicion at that time that this declaration would take place if his moves would not attract attention and corresponding response from the government. Nur’s consistent and strong statements opposing the framework agreement with the MILF were ominous. He wanted that the whole Philippine government peace process, including the MILF negotiations, factor in or take into account the existing MNLF peace agreement.

It seemed he felt he was ignored. He feared that his nurtured 1996 Peace Agreement would be abrogated and set aside with the onset

Advocacy Mindanao Jess Dureza of the final peace agreement with the MILF. RESTIVE --I am not sure now how things and events will spin out from here on. So far, statements coming from some MNLF leaders are moderate, if not conciliatory. An associate of MISUARI told me his movements were restricted.

He was last reported to be still in Sulu.

Worrisome however is the restiveness noted in some MNLF communities. Remember that there are still strong misgivings on the implementation of MNLF peace agreement.

In fact, a Tripartite review started during my watch at OPAPP to look into these misgivings. Remember that the Final Peace Agree-

ment with them in 1996 did not contain any provision on “disarmament” so their fighters, although transitioning to peaceful lives, kept their firearms somewhere. I know of some MNLF groups which buried their greased weaponry in plastic bag sunderground. I will not be surprised if some are starting to dig them up just in case.

VOLATILE --- However, I note positive signs. Ustadz Habier MALIK, whose enclave in Sulu I personally visited sometime ago, was quoted as saying that “Maas” (referring to NUR, literally meaning “respected one”) will take a PEACEFUL route in pursuing the declaration See dureza, page 5

Habit... from page 4

mold’ of our bad habits takes effort, yet one of the greatest freedoms in life is the freedom from bad habits.

Habits are like the roads we take through life everyday.

The problem is that not every road takes us where we need to go. Actually, our routes through life often become our ruts in life. We end up stuck in them and find it hard to dig ourselves out. That’s why we must change our bad habits as soon as possible before they become our ‘second nature’.

You see, our habits become our character and our character becomes our life. As one wise person said: “First we make our habits, then our habits make us.”

But we humans don’t like to change, do we? So we come up with excuses, like: “I can’t be different; that’s just the way I am.” Or we say: “I was born this way.” And the good ol’ saying: “You can’t teach an old dog new tricks.” But that’s just it: we’re not dogs or animals. In fact, we’re the only creatures who have the freedom and power to change Republic of the Philippines Department of Transportation and Communications LAND TRANSPORTATION FRANCHISING AND REGULATORY BOARD Region X, Cagayan de Oro City MIRASOL P.

and choose the kind of person we become.

So what habits do you need to start changing today? You know, there’s one bad habit you need to change first, that will help you change all your other habits. It’s the habit of living your own way, instead of your Maker’s way. He’s the only one who knows the road to the best, most satisfying life for you. So today, won’t you ask Jesus Christ to forgive you, and to take full charge of your habits and life? Just Think a Minute…

part of this Bangsamoro “republik”. The Sabah claim of the Sultanate of Sulu is also MNLF’s own aspiration. In fact, I got confidential information that those so-called Sultanate Army fighters who penetrated Sabah were actually MNLF forces from Sulu , wearing newly sewn Sultanate army uniforms.

Moreover, the angst of Nur against the Malaysians got worse when he was arrested in 2001 after a failed MNLF attack of Jolo. I recall that after escaping from Sulu, he landed in his usual Malaysian hideaway thinking and confident, albeit erroneously, that he was still enjoying sanctuary status.

The Malaysians promptly intercepted him as soon as he landed and took him into custody. He was dumped in a detainee’s celland cut off from the rest of the world for sometime. I was secretly dispatched to Malaysia (on board a C-130 plane in the middle of the night ) to fetch Nur and fly him back to a waiting, specially furbished prison facility in Santa Rosa,Laguna.

He spent almost the whole 5 hours of flying time from Kuala Lumpur to Manila relating to

me how he was badly treated by the Malaysians. (And to think that many thought he was luxuriously billeted in some plush hotel or villa.) I was sure he did not expect such treatment from them who were his patrons and supporters during his rebellion days against Philippine authorities.Malaysia, in fact, was the arms supply depot and staging point of MNLF rebels at the height of the rebellion. NUR FAILED TO NOTICE, or perhaps ignored, THE PARADIGM SHIFT in the international scene.

NOT A SPENT FORCE-I have not personally talked to him for sometime now so I cannot as yet divine what’s in his mind.. But I am certain that how NUR will be handled from hereon will be crucial.

As things stand, we cannot afford to have another potentially explosive front to deal with while we are tackling the end game of the MILF peace agreement. Not to mention the upswing of terrorists’ incidents here and there.

But let me repeat: Do not discount nor ignore Misuari.

Do not treat him as a spent force. Do not disparage him

as one whose time has passed.

Otherwise, we may all be in for a big, big surprise.

of independence. I do hope so.

BUT WE CAN NEVER TELL HOW VOLATILE EVENTS SUCH AS THESE COULD SPIN INTO. MALIK, a religious leader who maintains an armed force inthe fastnesses of Sulu , isone of the loyalists who “hostaged” Marine General BEN DOLORFINO andGen. RAMON SANTOS, my OPAPP undersecretary when they entered his camp to deliver some “goodies” and in a goodwill mission. They were prevented from leaving the camp for

several days for one reason or another. I had to fly to Jolo and personally negotiate with Malik to set them free.

STILL AN ICON --NUR is still an “icon” to some Muslims. Although his capability to lead his people to wage war against the Philippine government is doubted by some quarters, he is still revered by those who believe in him.

Even the Islamic world still held him in high esteem. This was evident when I attended several conferences of the Organizationof Islamic Conference (OIC) in the Middle East where I saw for myself how he was received as if he was Head of State. Up to today, and as far as I know, he is still considered the representative of the country’s Bangsamoro

by OIC leaders.

SABAH -- This Bangsamoro Republik announcement can mean going to an instrumentality or agency of the United Nations seeking recognition of the “republik”.

And my hope is that Misuari’s new mission for independence will remain within the realm of a non-violent, peaceful pursuit.

For sure, SABAH will be

Govt sets survey for anti-poverty drive

By BUTCH D. ENERIO Correspondent

IN A bid to further enhance the government’s antip over t y pr og r a m , the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) will conduct the second nationwide assessment in the last quarter of this year to identify the number of poor families needing assistance.

The assessment will be undertaken through the DSWD’s project dubbed as ‘Listahan’- Talaan ng Pamilyang Nangangailanganor the National Household Targeting System for Poverty Reduction.

Listahan, is an information management system that identifies and assess who and where the poor are.

Listahan makes available to the national government agencies and social protection st a keholders a pioneer d at a ba s e c on si s t i ng of comprehensive information about poor families nationwide.

The assessment will cover 15.3 million households estimate f rom t he 2010 Census of Population results for both rural and pocket of poverty in urban areas.

It can be recalled that the DSWD conducted the first assessment in 2009 where 10.9 million household were

“WE want to professionalize your profession.” With these words, Cagayan de Oro City second district Rep. Rufus Rodriguez (CDP) dismissed allegations that government is really bent on muzzling the “freest and liveliest press in Asia.”

EXTRA-JUDICIAL SETTLEMENT WITH DEED OF ABSOLUTE SALE

assessed resulting in the identification of 5.25 million as poor using proxy means test (PMT), a statistical formula that estimates family income based on observable family characteristics.

Beneficiaries of government programs such as Pantawid Pamilya, National Health Insurance Program, Social Pension Fund, among others, were taken from 2009 database of Listahan.

In preparation for the up c om i n g a s s e s s me nt , DSWD will be hiring more t ha n 47,0 0 0 f ield

workers who will act as supervisors, enumerators, area coordinators, encoders and verifiers. They will undergo training and will then be deployed in the provinces, towns, and cities in the country.

DSWD said that the 2013 assessment field workers will be using android tablets instead of the traditional paper and pencil as the primary data collection tool in urban areas.

“The use of tablets as data collection tool and encoding device will minimize the

risk of losing the family assessment forms during shipment and expedite the data collection process in urban areas,” said DSWD Secretary Dinky Soliman in a statement.

However, due to t he absence of reliable internet connection, enumerators assigned in rural areas will continue to use paper and pencil.

This year’s assessment will also use the barangay community characteristics der ived f rom t he 20 09 Census of Population and

Housing as determinants of poverty status in the new PMT model.

This year’s nationwide assessment has a budget of P1.9 billion that includes the cost of service of field staff, procurement of IT equ ipment , produc t ion family assessment forms, and conduct of validation activities, among others.

Listahan will also be able to classify occupation of family members into 431 specific categories consistent with Philippine Standard Occupation Classification.

or regulate Philippine press but only to “professionalize” it, noting the many “chainsaw media/journalists” who are like vigilantes out to do the bidding of the highest bidder.

“No, that’s not true that we are trying to muzzle the press,” he said, adding: “We a lways hear complaints from legitimate professional journalists regarding the activities of these tigbas that not only destroy the

journalism profession but also the image of other journalists who are credible, have integrity and who follow the professional ethics of journalism.”

Rodriguez disclosed that he re-filed last week HB 1047 or An Act Providing for a Magna Carta for Journalism, which he first filed on July 8, 2010 but failed to get the approval of the 15th Congress. It was referred to the Committee on Public Information, then headed by Rep. Ben Evardone, on August 2, 2010 but had not passed muster at the Committee level.

HB 1047 seeks the creation of the Philippine Center for Journalists (PCJ) which will act as the accreditation center of all journalists in the country.

The PCJ will also administer professional examinations for all journalists before they are allowed to work in the journalism profession.

“Accredited journalists

shall be entitled to all benefits and privileges to be accorded to them by law, by their employers and by the PCJ,” he said in his proposed measure.

Journalists who have at least 10 years continuous experience in the journalism profession are exempted by PCJ examinations.

The PCJ is also mandated to promulgate a code of ethics for journalist. And any journalist found guilty of violating the code of ethics will be suspended and/or his accreditation withdrawn.

“It is necessary for the enactment of a law that will ensure a living wage, an atmosphere conducive to productive journalism work, reiterate value of ethics, provide for development programs that will deepen the practice of their profession, and promote the defense and protection of freedom and human rights of journalists and their organizations,” Rodriguez said in the bill’s

explanatory note.

Once passed into law, the Magna Carta for Journalists a s s u re s a l l a c c re d it e d journalists to be “provided with benefits packaged at par with the current benefits enjoyed by those in the labor force.”

“If we lawyers must first take an exam; like doctors and other professions; why not journalists? This way, we can professionalize the journalism profession and weed it from unscrupulous characters,” he said.

Rodriguez also urged all journalists to put into writing their objections, comments and suggestions about the proposed measure and give them to him so he can amend his bill for the good of all journalists.

“I suggest you help convene the Cagayan de Oro Press Club and discuss this bill. Then give me all your inputs, favourable or not, so I can also make the bill better,” he said.

Blend 45 recognizes Ilongga OFW

I

nnately helpful and caring, Filipinos are known to go out of their way to assist those in need, friends and strangers alike. The Pinoys’ pleasant nature and easy smile can make anyone feel at ease, while their compassion and nurturing spirit can lift spirits even in the most distressing of times. That is why Overseas Filipino Workers are sought worldwide.

One example is OFW Teresita Sajonia known to the family she worked for as Aunty Terry. Her virtues inspired Ilo Ilo, a film that recently won the Caméra d'Or in the prestigious Cannes Film Festival this year and has been receiving various accolades from all over the world. The film’s director, Anthony Chen, is one of the boys that Aunty Terry took care of when she was a domestic helper in Singapore in the early

1990s.

Anthony is the eldest, followed by Justin and Christopher, the closest to Aunty Terry. Christopher, now 24, remembered “We shared a bunk bed, and every night she would pat me on my back until I fell asleep.” The success of the film led to the reunion of the siblings and Teresita, who lost contact with the family when she returned to the Philippines 16 years ago. Now 56, Aunty Terry will fly to Singapore to watch the film that revolves around her and her life with the Chens. She will also be reunited with the whole family.

Set in 1997, Ilo Ilo chronicles the relationship between a family of three and their newly arrived Filipino maid, Teresa, who, like many other Filipino women, went to Singapore in search of a better life.

The main character in Ilo

Ilo, Teresa, is named after Teresita and is also called Aunty Terry in the film.

Her caring hands, loving words and warm smile made it possible for the Chen family to become attached to this hard-working Ilongga.

Aunty Terry exemplifies the true value of Filipinos; seeing life in a lighter perspective and confronting its challenges with positivity and a smile. Aunty Terry touched lives and left a legacy that will be forever remembered, especially by three boys.

Blend 45, the “Kapeng Pinoy” honors such individuals -- everyday heroes who showcase all that is good in the Filipino.

“Auntie Terry truly exemplifies the Filipino way of being Maalaga,” said Edwin Totanes, Universal Robina Corporation’s (URC) Marketing VP for Beverage.

“Blend 45 celebrates these Pinoy values… Matulungin,

Symbolic turnover of Blend 45's Pangkabuhayan showcase comprising of P50,000 worth of Universal Robina Corporation products was made to Aunty Terry (third from laft) by, from left Len Balmonte of JG Summit, Christine Maxine Fernando of Blend 45 and Charles Lim, CEO of Selrahco in Iloilo City recently.

Maalalahanin and Malambing… Values that we grew up with, that were instilled in us by our parents and grandparents. That’s why our tagline is ‘Gisingin ang masarap at mabuti sa Pinoy’

-- for sure, there are a lot of Auntie Terrys out there.”

Aunty Terry will be receiving a “pangkabuhayang showcase” from Blend 45, composed of a variety of URC products worth fifty

thousand pesos.

Blend 45 salutes such admirable individuals, who not only espouse positive Pinoy values, but also share them with the rest of the world.

situation stabilizes.

“During times like this, we know that communications is very important. The rescued passengers wouldn’t have their mobile phones with them but at the same time, they need to contact their families, relatives, or friends for assistance or for reassurance. Through

the LIbreng Tawag centers, we hope Globe could be of help to both the victims and their loved ones,” said Fernando Esguerra, OIC of Globe Corporate Social Responsibility.

M/V St. Thomas Aquinas 1 of 2Go Shipping Lines was reported to have 118 crew members and 752 pas-

sengers while M/V Sulcon Express 7 owned by PSACC (formerly Sulpicio Lines), has 36 crewmen.

The Manila-bound passenger ferry and the cargo ship collided Friday around 9:03 pm off Lawis Ledge in Cebu, leaving over 20 people dead and about 150 more missing.

In quick response to Friday evening’s Cebu ferry disaster where a number of people died and over a hundred still unaccounted for, Globe Telecom immediately sets up two Libreng Tawag centers which victims and families of those affected can use to establish communications with their friends and kins.

The first Libreng Tawag site is at the Pier 4 Terminal in Port Area where about 300 survivors are staying while the second Libreng Tawag center is in Sugbutel, one of the two hostels which house the other survivors.

Instructional Supervision: A Friend or a Foe?

By Nelfa D. Ampaled, ES Head Teacher-I, Sinalac Elementary School

Instructional Supervision is the process that guides the teacher in his teaching-learning episode in order to be more effective and efficient. It is also an assistance extended to the teachers who need help in doing his daily activities in order to attain success and achieve higher learning outcomes. In spite of being essential in the teaching-learning process teachers then are afraid of and they

don’t want to be observed. Is it really a foe? ... or a friend?

Traditionally, supervision was focus on teacher’s fault most of the observers negatively criticized the teachers rather than helping them to improve the teaching skills and guide them on what to do in his teaching.

Teachers felt that they were jeopardized by their administrators. Old-fashion school administrators make the instructional

supervision as tool in threatening the teachers especially if they have abhorrence particularly those who failed to follow what they wanted to.

Department of Education is modifying the process in conducting the instructional supervision from threatening to nonthreatening approach in dealing with the teachers. A friendly atmosphere and establishing rapport are the most essential

With the present style of instructional supervision and the use of new techniques in observing classes it is then considered as clinical type of observation. Meaning that the observation is diagnostic in nature rather than giving of antidote. Teacher’s weaknesses are identified but both parties are considered in making the solutions and agree in one common option which are mutually and cooperatively acceptable.

In other words, observation is not looking at the situation and find fault but seeing things positively for advancement. Indeed, observation is now perceived as a friend rather than a foe. With the Department’s new culture of having classroom observation the anxiety and fear are slowly eliminated and acceptable to the teachers.

HAPPY FIESTA!

ORDER

Republic of the Philippines FOURTH SHARI’A CIRCUIT COURT Fourth Shari’a Judicial District Iligan City

This strategy follows the three steps namely: Pre-observation, observation and post-observation. Pre-observation conference is conducted first in which teacher and observer agreed in some points of observation and set the parameter or limitation during the observation. It gives an assurance that the presence of the observer is to help and give assistance in enhancing their teaching skill. During the observation the observer just plainly observe the demonstration without interruption to avoid embarrassment and let the teacher feel comfortable in his work. In the post-observation the observer share his insights on what he gathered during his observation and give his assistance if ever needed for improvement but it must be in friendly and positive manner.

Daily HOROSCOPE AQUARIUS (January 20 – February 18) - Try something radically different -- even your deepest beliefs may be on the table today! It’s a good time to experiment with redefining yourself in some major way. It should pay off for you!

PISCES (February 19 – March 20) - Try out new things today -- your energy is at its peak, and it’s perfectly safe to take small risks and see what you are really capable of. Explore the world and find a new place for yourself in it!

ARIES (March 21 – April 19) - You’ve got to reach out to someone you care for -- they need you more than they are willing to admit. This could launch something new and big, or it could just cement your relationship.

TAURUS (April 20 – May 20) - Try not to tackle any big projects on your own -- you are a serious team player today! Even if you don’t get any help right away, try to ask for ideas or other assistance from those nearby.

GEMINI (May 21 – June 21) - You may have a hard time making yourself understood today -- but you still need to try! Speak slowly, write carefully and otherwise find ways to ensure that people can’t possibly misunderstand you.

The Conjuring is a 2013 American supernatural horror film directed by James Wan. The film, starring Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson as Ed and Lorraine Warren, is based on a true story, and follows paranormal investigators who come to the assistance of the Perron family (Ron Livingston and Lili Taylor), who are experiencing increasingly disturbing events in their farmhouse in Harrisville, Rhode Island in 1971.

The Conjuring was released in the United States and Canada on July 19, 2013, and in the United Kingdom and India on August 2, 2013.

At least one of them is hot enough to pursue without reservation, so pay attention!

SCORPIO (October 23 – November 21) - Do you know what you really want? If so, now is the time to reach out and grab it! If not, let your fantasy life direct your actions until you’ve found something that looks like it’s worth pursuing.

Arrest warrants vs CDO bombers out soon

Your Mindanao-wide Community Newspaper

early in the evening.

“We think Hapids was looking where to place the bomb but Candy’s Restaurant was full of people at that time. There was no vacant table so he left,” Deloso said.

He added that Hapids, who was wearing short pants and a hat, came back an hour later and found a table at Kyla’s Bistro where he planted the bomb fashioned from an 81mm mortar shell.

Little is known about Hapids who was reportedly a close associate of Reneer Lou Dongon, alias Rolly Unting, alleged leader of Khilafah Islamiyah Mindanao.

The same source said that Dongon and Hap-

ids, who reportedly hails from Maguindanao, were trained in bomb making by fugitive Malaysian Jemaah Islamiyah operative Zulkifli Bin Hir, also known as Marwan, who is accused of providing training for terror organizations across Southeast Asia.

Dongon and another member was arrested by the police in Marawi City last May 11 but was released by the courts, according to PNP 10 Regional Director Catalino Rodriguez.

Rodriguez said the sizable bomb making materials found in the possession of Dongon during his arrest were similar to the explosives used in the Maxandrea Hotel along J.R. Borja Street here last year.

City Prosecutor Fidel Macauyag said the panel of prosecutors overseeing the clarificatory hearing of witnesses and complainants Tuesday afternoon are expected to come out with their findings by Thursday.

“If the panel finds that there are enough evidence against the six suspects, then we expect [the warrants to] be issued on Friday or next week,” Macauyag

said.

Five witnesses and two complainants – the widows of Misamis Oriental Board Member Roldan Lagbas and Cagayan de Oro resident Antonio Paredes – attended the clarificatory hearing at the City Prosecutors Office here Tuesday.

Supt. Michael John Deloso, of the Cagayan de Oro Police, said multiple murder charges were filed against

Usman Hapids and the five other suspects who were identified by the witnesses.

Hapids was the only one among the six suspects who was identified by name by the witnesses and the police.

“The witnesses positively identified Hapids because they say they were just five to six feet away,” Deloso said.

Deloso said Hapids and the suspects ate dinner first at the nearby Gloria Maris Restaurant. They left the restaurant around 7 p.m., Deloso quoted the testimony of a witness.

A CCTV video provided to reporters by the police saw Hapids entering and getting out several times from Candy’s Restaurant located beside Kyla’s Bistro

Mayell Jumalon, a human resource management officer at the provincial government, told MindaNews the firm had contacted them for coordination and for the use of space.

Jumalon added that a Concentrix officer said they are hiring for the firm’s own personnel needs. She added that the 200 will include administrative and marketing officers, among others.

According to its website, Concentrix, part of the SYNNEX Corporation,

has 25 years experience in business process services.

They identify themselves to be experts in technology, consumer electronics, gaming, broadcast and social media.

The firm supports “the entire customer lifecycle with services to acquire, support and renew customer relationships.”

Business process outsourcing career is also a priority in Bukidnon. The Bukidnon State University has fine-tuned its English language degree to cater to the needs of those seeking

career paths beyond teaching the language.

Dr. Hazel M. Abejuela, chair of the language and letters department of BSU’s College of Arts and Science, said earlier that they have upgraded the curriculum for its BA English course to respond to opportunities in the country, such as the call center industry.

The new curriculum likewise caters to those who want to pursue teaching English, writing and editing, and public relations communication.

Last April, the Commis-

sion on Higher Education declared BSU, along with the Ateneo de Zamboanga University and the University of Southeastern Philippines (USEP), as centers for development for English.

The BPO industry is also considered a “priority investment” in Bukidnon, as promoted by the Bukidnon Kaamulan Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Inc. The industry has been added to the recently revised Bukidnon Investment Incentives Code. (Walter I. Balane / MindaNews)

29, 2013 following some technical problems.

Dr. Evers said that parallel maintenance works for Unit 2 are now being carried out side by side with the repair works to optimize the time and bring the unit back to service as soon as possible. This move supersedes earlier plans to shut down Unit 2 for preventive maintenance as originally scheduled on September 21 to October 27, 2013.

Dr. Evers expressed confidence that despite the unplanned shut down of unit 2, SPI is expected to sustain its remarkably high plant-wide availability performance. Since start of full commercial operations in November 2006, SPI sustained an average availability of 93% and a less than one percent rate for unplanned outage.

SPI has delivered more than 9.6 billion kWh of electricity to the Mindanao

grid representing about 20% of the island’s total electric power supply.

The company’s power plant at the PHIVIDEC Industrial Estate in Villanueva, Misamis Oriental is considered as Mindanao’s most modern. It utilizes state-of-the-art technologies that enabled it to sustain through the years a highly efficient, reliable and responsible power plant operation.

SPI is a leader in highly

advanced coal power generation technology. It was established as a special purpose company to finance, build, operate and maintain Mindanao’s 1st and so far the only coal-fired power plant in the island. SPI is majority owned by Steag GmbH which is one of the largest electricity producers in Germany and an active global player in energy development and services.

injected to various markets in the province to offset the skyrocketing prices of the commodity, he added.

“Anytime this week we’ll be conducting the test milling of these middle-priced rice at P32 per kilo,” he told reporters, noting that the agency has 13,000 bags of palay for this purpose.

Prices of commercial premium rice rose by P8 per kilo from P35 to P43 in the markets in this city, the seat of government of Region 12, in the last few weeks due to tight supply.

Last month, Hilario said the NFA injected 3,309 bags

of rice to the commercial market, sold at P27 per kilo, as part of the agency’s intervention to avoid supply shortage in the area.

Lean palay harvest in South Cotabato started in April and expected to last until September, he said.

Aurelio Banggay, Bureau of Agricultural Statistics provincial chief, said that an estimated 22,000 hectares of palay farms in the province are expected to be harvested starting October until the end of the year.

Bulk of the harvest will come from the upper valley portions of South Cotabato

consisting of the towns of Banga, Surallah, Norala and Sto. Nino.

Amalia Jayag-Datukan, DA-12 regional director, said they are expecting plentiful rice harvest across the region starting also in October.

Region 12 also comprises the provinces of North Cotabato, Sultan Kudarat and Sarangani.

“Our palay harvest season is now approaching and we’re expecting surplus yields until December,” Datukan said in a statement.

She noted that the region’s harvestable palay area

from August to December is pegged at 193,789 hectares and are projected to yield 753,647 metric tons (MT).

From August to September, she said a total of 23,179 hectares of palay are due for harvest and is expected to yield 94,171 MT. An additional 43,019 hectares with a projected yield of 173,795 MT will be harvested from September to October, Datukan said.

From October to December, Datukan said they expect to harvest a total of 515,457 MT of palay from 127,991 hectares of farmlands.

Biblical reflection

Bro. Edcel L. Closas

Strong in spirit Special Gospel of the day: Luke1:57-66,80(August13, 2013-Tuesday)Luke1:5766-Now Elisabeth’s full time came that she should be delivered; and she brought forth a son. And her neighbours and her cousins heard how the Lord had shewed great mercy upon her; and they rejoiced with her. And it came to pass, that on the eighth day they came to circumcise the child; and they called him Zacharias, after the name of his father. And his mother answered and said, Not [so]; but he shall be called John. And they said unto her, There is none of thy kindred that is called by this name. And they made signs to his father, how he would have him called.

And he asked for a writing table, and wrote, saying, His name is John. And they marvelled all. And his mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue [loosed], and he spake, and praised God. And all they that heard [them] laid [them] up in their hearts, saying, What manner of child shall this be! And the hand of the Lord was with him. Luke 1:80-And the child grew, and waxed “strong in spirit,” and was in the deserts till the day of his shewing unto Israel:In our gospel for today, we can see that St. Elizabeth delivered John the Baptist after 9 months.

In Wisdom7:1-2-a child can live only 9 months in a woman’s womb. This scenario is reminding us, that all of us soon, will be delivered to our different destinations, “Heaven, Purgatory and Hell.” Take note, “John was born for a reason” and this is our lives here on earth that all of us have “individual purpose” in our existence.”

In Ephesians 2:10-For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. Are you doing good? Remember that, “Serving God is the fulfillment of our existence.”
