Nacionalista Party’s standard bearer Sen. Manny Villar has conceded to Liberal Party’s Noynoy Aquino in a press con he has called this 11AM at his family-owned StarMall mall in Alabang, Muntinlupa City. http://qik.com/swfs/qikPlayer5.swf http://qik.com/swfs/qikPlayer5.swf Latest official partial COMELEC count puts Aquino at 12,233,002 votes vs. Villar’s 4,329,215. Villar, whose vow to eradicate poverty owing to [...]

Just Because

Like most people in the blogosphere, particularly the political blogging community, I got this now extensively-blogged black propaganda against survey-leading presidentible Sen. Noynoy Aquino most probably about the same time as everyone else got theirs. And it didn’t even take beyond the first few sentences to see through another pathetic email campaign trying so hard [...]

Who's to blame for Villar's drop in surveys?

If you’ve been reading the news, I think you already know the answer. Or at least, you know that Manny Villar’s camp is taking the blame — owning up to their inability to aggressively protect their image by issuing strong counter statements to disprove the many allegations thrown at them. Villar himself said in a [...]

While You Were Busy Bickering

While Noynoy Aquino and Manny Villar are engaged in frenzied mudslinging at each other, someone’s reaping all the benefits. While these two top contenders are busy trying to knock themselves out of the ring, someone just got in. Gilbert “Gibo” Teodoro didn’t get to where he is now at such a young age by chance. [...]

Gordon Dropped it Like it's Hot

Last updated: March 4, 2010 @ 2100H First there was Erap Estrada (although he didn’t blurt out a name, he dropped very obvious hints). Now there’s Senator Dick Gordon. Them and a few more less publicized tidbits of “political bribery” stories fuel today’s hot election headlines. And we thought El Niño is hot, no? http://www.youtube.com/v/1HdkSS_XCRE&hl=en_US&fs=1& [...]

Who among the presidentiables will be bad for the economy?

Photo by Stitch   “Who among the presidentiables will be bad for the economy?” This is an interesting query I got through a random “googler” today. [poll id="3"] Now, I don’t know if it’s some random thought or an actual question posed by God knows who but it sounds interesting enough that I wanted to [...]

Gibo Teodoro's "Sulong" informercial aka "Posible" lyrics

Click here if you’re looking for lyrics and video of the new “Lipad” commercial performed by Rivermaya. Surprised that since its Youtube upload yesterday, January 7, 2010, this “Sulong” infomercial/commercial/TVC/campaign ad barely had 500 views. Pretty much shows how “unpopular” he is compared to cousin Noynoy Aquino. Looks like the coming election is becoming more [...]

Dumbing our kids down, damning their future

All I can say is that if you’ve never “used” Calculus in your daily life, you are not making full use of the knowledge you have been introduced to. Beyond the figures or the nauseating equations, the study of Mathematics is a study of “possibilities”, of “origins” and of “derivations”. It is, as aptly put [...]

In Response to @Cocoy re: Noynoy

There is no greater honor for a blogger like me than be dedicated an entire post as response to one article I’ve written, specially if it’s from no less than one of those bloggers I have great respect for. It doesn’t even matter if that blogger disagrees with me or not. True to his blog’s [...]
