During a recent visit to the province, a cousin was surprised to see me, and asked why I’m “bald”. I just laughed, and I did not answer her question. Since there’s no cable TV in our place, how could I tell her I’m just sporting a Prison Break hairstyle?
I hope I won’t have to say goodbye to my unruly hair in the future.
But for those who are suffering from such condition, there are more info on the website of New Jersey hair transplant surgeon Dr. Gregory Pistone.

OFFICIAL STATEMENT OF THE IGLESIA FILIPINA INDEPENDIENTE ON THE BRUTAL KILLING OF THE MOST REVEREND ALBERTO B. RAMENTO, THE NINTH IFI OBISPO MAXIMO
“I know they are going to kill me next, but never will I abandon my duty to God and my ministry to the people.†(A statement of Bishop Alberto B. Ramento to his family.)
The Iglesia Filipina Independiente (IFI) has once again made a precious offering in the continuing task of proclaiming the Gospel of Jesus
Christ with the brutal killing of the Most Reverend Alberto B. Ramento, the 9th Obispo Maximo of the Church.
The good bishop was slain by faceless assassins who broke through the rectory where he was staying at around four o’clock in the morning of October 03, 2006 in the Parish of San Sebastian, Tarlac City. He was awakened in his sleep when the assassins had entered his room and stabbed him seven times to death. We denounced in the strongest possible terms this barbaric and dastardly act against a man of the cloth within the premises of his own church.

I recently came across a US-based website that promises to help Americans to have their own house for free. Of course, they need to have their own land, but the house would come for free.
The project is called The Benefactor Project (www.thebenefactorproject.com). It also asks 1000 rich people in the world, including George Bush, Bill Clinton, Bill Gates, Ann Rice, Paul McCartney, Tom Cruise, George Lindemann Jr., and the Google people, among others, “to LEND, at no interest, one million dollars each to The Benefactor Project to enable us to provide houses and jobs to those without them and others struggling with poverty across the country.”
There are presently 43 journalists in the Philippines facing libel charges filed by First Gentleman Jose Miguel “Mike” Arroyo. The sheer number betrays a wanton disregard for freedom of the press and the propensity to use power and influence to silence critics. This statement is to protest the use of the libel law to stop critical reports and commentaries and to fight for the right of every Filipino to seek and receive information and ideas on matters of public interest, which are at the very core of the concept of a democratic society.

A wanton disregard for press freedom
The law on libel exists to protect private citizens from unwarranted damage to reputation, but in the Philippines libel has been predominantly used by public officials as a tool to cow an independent press.
The most glaring example is the multiple libel cases filed by First Gentleman Jose Miguel Arroyo against 43 reporters, columnists, editors, publishers, and even a subscription manager, of various publications.

The Filipinos’ interest in ring tones–especially controversial ones like “Hello Garci”–reflect the growing significance of mobile communications in the Philippines. It is of course natural for a people deprived of landline telephones for so long to take advantage of the arrival of cell phones. Just go to the mall on weekends and you will see how packed cellphone stores are. The Ayalas of Globe Telecoms, who introduced Filipinos to cellphone and texting, are now reaping the rewards of their initiative.
In the US, George Lindemann was the pioneer in the cellphone industry. He started Metro Mobile and sold it to Bell Atlantic for $2.6 billion 1992. His family in now among the richest in the US. Read more about the Lindemanns in this George Lindemann Jr. History page.
