HOMICIDERS IN SAN BEDA LAW COMMUNITY

Is it impeccable to say that there are homiciders inside San Beda Law community?
 

In February this year, San Beda law student Marvin Reglos died after hazing initiation rites of the Lambda Rho Beta fraternity in Antipolo City.

Only five months later, another freshman at the San Beda College of Law in Manila died allegedly after undergoing initiation rites of a still unknown fraternity.

22-year-old Marc Andrei Marcos was apparently beaten to death in a suspected hazing ritual and died in a hospital on Monday.



"Let's just say na yung arms niya
at yung legs niya kulay ube...
"

"Let's just say na yung arms niya at yung legs niya kulay ube... Kulay ube. Medyo masakit yung pagkamatay niya," said Atty. Jose Vener Ibarra, Marcos' uncle.

Andrei's family members believe he was undergoing initiation rites by the Lex Leonum fraternity composed of San Beda law students.*
 
Definitely, our existing anti-hazing law lacks teeth and must be amended. The authorities and all concerned parties should decisively act to bring to justice the perpetrators of this most heinous of crimes.


Justice for
Marc Andrei Marcos, Marvin Reglos
and all victims of fraternity-related violence!

P-NOY'S SPEECH SLAPS NOLI DE CASTRO





I wonder how will Noli de Castro behave today after Pnoy's speech slapped him Friday night at TV Patrol anniversary. Parts of the speech follow:

“Huwag po sana ninyong mamasamain, tutal kaharap ko na po kayo ngayon, at one night lang naman sa 365 days ng isang taon ko kayo makakausap. Tingnan po natin ang paghahayag ng inyong institusyon.

“Noong Oktubre ng nakaraang taon, may isang reporter kayo ang nagbabalita sa NAIA 3. Ang sabi niya, sa puntong iyon, tumaas ng dalawampung porsiyento ang passenger arrivals sa paliparan. Magandang balita, at higit sa lahat, fact po iyan. Sa kabila nito, nakuha pa pong humirit ng isang anchor n’yo at ang sabi po niya, and I quote, “Nasa NAIA 3 ka kasi; kung nasa NAIA 1 ka, doon malala.” Sa loob-loob ko po, anong kinalaman ng ibinabalita sa NAIA 3 sa NAIA 1? May nagsabi po bang ayos na ayos na ang NAIA 1? Kung mayroon man ho, hindi kami. Nakaligtaan niya atang mahigit 30 anyos na ang istrukturang ito.

“Napapaisip nga po ako: ‘yung nagkomento nito, hindi ba’t anim na taon ding tumangan sa renda ng gobyerno? Sabihin na po nating minana lang din nila ang problema; ‘di hamak mas luma naman ang ipinamana nilang problema sa amin. Anim na taon ang ipinagkaloob sa kanya para tumulong sa pagsasaayos ng mismong inirereklamo niya. Pero ngayon, tayo na nga ang may bitbit na problema, tayo na nga ang tutugon dito, pero, masakit nga ho, may gana pa tayong hiritan ng nagpamana?

“Naalala ko rin po nang na-reco­ver ng NBI ang isang banyagang bata na nakidnap. Ang ganda na po sana: Nakakuha ng tip ang awtoridad, kumilos sila, at na-recover ang bata. Masaya ang mga magulang na kapiling na muli nila ang kanilang anak; masaya ang bata na kayakap niya ang kaniyang ama’t ina; masaya ang awtoridad na maayos at matagumpay ang operasyon nila. Mukhang ang hindi lang masaya, ito nga pong anchor natin na nagawa pa uling humirit na baka raw na-set-up lang raw ang rescue operation, at binayaran lang talaga ang ransom. Kahit anong pilit ng reporter na malinaw ang operasyon; nag-surveillance ang mga taga-NBI, at talagang natiyempuhan nilang walang nakabantay sa bata, pilit pa rin po nang pilit ang anchor. Sabi nga ho ng nanonood kong kasama, “Naman.” Kami pa po mismo ang magagalak kung makakapaghain kayo ng kapirasong ebidensiya ukol dito, at kung mayroon nagkamali, usigin natin ang mga nagkamali.

“May naitutulong po ba ang mga walang-basehang spekulasyon, lalo na kung lumalabas ka sa telebisyon at sinusubaybayan ng sambayanan? Kung nagbabangkaan lang tayo sa kanto, hindi problema ang mga walang-basehang patutsada. Pero kung alam mong opinion-maker ka, alam mo rin dapat na mayroon kang responsibilidad. Sana po, sa tuwing sasabihin nating, and I quote, “magandang gabi, bayan,” ay totoong hinahangad nating maging maganda ang gabi ng bayan.

“May isa pa po: Ang pagtaas-baba po kasi ng pamasahe, dumadaan sa mahabang proseso. Minabuti po nating makipag-ugnayan sa transport groups, sa pangunguna po ni Secretary Mar Roxas, upang bumuo ng kasunduang makatuwiran. Dahil sa kaguluhan sa Gitnang Silangan, malaki ang naging gastusin ng mga tsuper sa pataas na pataas na presyo ng krudo, kaya oras na umabot ang diesel sa napagkasunduang presyo, ibibigay sa kanila ang kanilang fare hike para matulungan naman. Ngunit sang-ayon sila na kapag bumalik ang presyo’t bumaba rin ang presyo ng krudo, magkukusa rin silang ibaba ang pamasahe. Ika nila, imbes na sumobra ang tubo, bilang Pilipino ay magmamalasakit kami sa kapwa Pilipino.

“Ibinalita po ito ng field reporter ninyo. Good news po talaga: Ang risonableng mungkahi, napagbigyan; ang pamahalaan, grupo ng tsuper, nagtulungan. Panalo ang sambayanan. Ang problema, nagawa pa rin itong sundutan ng komentaryo. Matapos i-report, ang pambungad na tanong ng inyong anchor: Ano raw ba ang angal ng mga grupo sa akin po. Ang reaksyon ko, “Saan naman nanggaling ‘yun?”

“Nagkasundu-sundo na tayong tugunan ang isang problema, mayroon pang naghahanap ng angal. Nagkakasundo na nga, para bang gusto pa ring pag-awayin. Mahirap pong isipin na bahagi ito ng inyong job description. ‘Di po ba kung umangat ang ating kalagayan, tayo ang panalo; at kung lumubog naman ito, tayo rin naman ang talo? Bakit parang mas gusto ng iba na makita tayong lumulubog?

“Kung gabi-gabing bad news ang hapunan ni Juan dela Cruz, talaga namang mangangayayat ang puso’t isip niya sa kawalan ng pag-asa. Mayroon po kayong The Filipino Channel, kung saan napapanood ng mga dayuhan at ng ating mga kababayan sa ibayong dagat ang mga balita sa Pilipinas. Isipin po natin: bawat isang turistang bumibisita sa bansa tinatayang isang trabaho ang naglilikha. Ilang turista kaya kada buwan ang nagka-cancel ng bakasyon dahil sa araw-araw na negatibismo? Ilan kayang kababayan ang nawawalan ng pagkakataong magkaroon ng kabuhayan dahil sa bad news na ito? Kung isa po kayo sa sampung milyon nating kababayan na nagsasakripisyo sa ibayong-dagat, gaganahan kaya kayong bumalik dito kung mas nakakasindak pa sa Shake, Rattle, and Roll ang balita sa telebisyon? Kailan pa po ba naging masama ang pagpapahayag ng mabuting balita?

KAREN AND HER GANDA POINTS

(This post was inspired by "Why I Love Karen Mae Reyes" by Iana Amarise. Read the original version of this article at http://thepenandibloggersedition.blogspot.com/2012/06/why-i-love-karen-mae-reyes.html.)


Iana Amarise has described Karen to have proven herself over and over again that she is more than just a beautiful face. She’s a good person, worthy of her fans support.


She says “I’m sorry” whenever she realizes that she does something wrong. She says “I’m sorry” for her shortcomings like when she couldn’t help with the tasks.

For example with the flagpole task, she was sick but she managed to find a way to entertain the tired housemates by doing that awesome Jennifer Hudson "And I Am Telling You" lip sync. That’s Ganda point!

She is serious when it comes to tasks. She tries her best to contribute for them to become victorious.

She is a fighter and she has this strength that endures physically and emotionally. Remember when the mothers entered the house? She was the only girl and she was able to continue to pedal. And also, she has beaten Alec at Tom in lifting the belt which earned her immunity from nomination. Another Ganda point!


She admits that she’s not perfect, that she has a lot to change to become a better person. And now, she has changed a lot since PBB Teens started. Ganda point! 

This Hagikgik Chick knows her strengths and at the same time she acknowledges the strengths of the other housemates. She said she’s into dancing but Karen has also praised the housemate who is good in singing. Another Ganda point!


Karen knows her weaknesses. As a matter of fact she doesn’t deny that she’s not that good in English. "Isang basket lang ang dala kong English Kuya,” she admits. Nevertheless, Karen is enthusiastic to learn and try her best to keep up with the housemates. She was never shy, though it sometimes became the laughing stock in the house. At the very least, it put a smile on the faces of everyone inside the house. Another Ganda point!

Karen, according to her housemates, is moody. But most of the time, she is jolly and this moody hagikgik chick has talked most with sense especially when the housemates seek her advice. Karen is one of the best friends. Another Ganda point!

In times of opposing opinions, Karen does not hold grudges and she forgives easily after a talk. Whenever Karen has a fight with other girls, they always nominate Karen but Karen doesn’t nominate them just because they have misunderstandings. A million ganda points!

If we really look at Karen’s positive side, there are so much ganda points in her. 

Let's just continue supporting her.

PINOY BIG BROTHER TEENS BIG 4 SUPER POWERS

PINOY BIG BROTHER TEENS BIG 4
JaiJoj, Myrtle, Karen, Roy



ROY'S KILLER SMILE
Many believe that he is one of the most deserving to be the BIG WINNER. Roy is the only boy in the BIG 4. But that doesn't follow that he has the votes of the teen girls because he is the exact opposite of WGWG (white guy with guitar). But most of you will agree that he would be the BIG WINNER and defeat all his opponents if he uses the "BBS ROY" power votes and flash his killer smile.



MYRTLE'S WEAPON
Myrtle has always been on top of the ranking whenever faced to a challenge. And when I say "top," I mean #1 with very huge distant advantage from the #2. She needs to charge her agility by the votes of her fans. So Myrtle's sole weapon is the "BBS MYRTLE."





THE TWIN POWERS OF JOJ & JAI
It's been the first time for the super twins Jai and Joj to be tested if their endurance is sustainable. And it was proven after 10th eviction night concluded that they were deserving to be in the BIG 4. The Super Twins also have twin powers to increase the chance to become the BIG WINNER -- (1) BBS JAIJOJ; and (2) BBE MYRTLE to make Myrtle weaker.



KAREN'S COMBO ATTACK
We all know that Myrtle's rival is Karen. If Karen will use her first attack, it would be "BBE MYRTLE" so that Myrtle would be weaker. And to fully knock her out, Karen should use "BBS KAREN" as her supporters really boost her strength. Using the combo attack would be fatal to all her opponents and would put her to the pedestal as the BIG WINNER.
