Scene: From re-elected 3rd district Congressman Art Yap: Elections always bring out the best and worst in us. This year's elections was no exception. But in the end, no lies nor propaganda, no threat nor violence, no vice nor money can stand against the truth of the people's will. For one day in three years, the people get to judge their public officials. The people have spoken. Let us honor the people by graciously accepting their choices. Congratulations to all the winning candidates, thank you for all the courageous and steadfast support to my campaign and my gratitude to the Lord Almighty. God bless our incoming term and God bless Bohol.
Scene: The mass resignation of the staff of the Tubigon Tourism Culture Arts and Heritage Office, organizer of Anyag sa Tubigon, Tanda Festival Street Dancing and Sambunot sa Awit when incumbent Mayor William Jao lost to mayor-elect Marlon Amila. Some sectors call it sour-graping, however, according to VRS, the resignation was to give the new administration a free hand in choosing his staff who will run his programs for the town.
Seen: Spotted in Bohol is erstwhile commissioner of the National Youth Commission Benjie Oliva. If you think Benjie is missing in action, he is busy traveling the country as personal assistant of Agriculture Sec. Proceso Alcala.
Scene: Thank you to all my family and friends for the overwhelming birthday wishes and cheer yesterday (May 25). I thank you many times over for all the birthday greetings! This very special message from a friend: The way of all peace is to scale the mountain of self. Loving others makes the climb down easier. We see all things darkly until love lights the lamp of the soul.

GMA Kapuso gives away 2,000 school bags to Bohol
Education, a basic children’s right, comes with a challenge especially in the country’s most desolate areas. Fortunately, GMA Kapuso Foundation, the socio-civic arm of the GMA Network, is reaching out to far-flung communities to touch more Filipino lives.
Last week, I accompanied Amabelle Rusiana, the regional coordinator of GMA Kapuso Foundation and the DepED people, for the distribution of GMA Kapuso Foundation's bags and school supplies under its project “Unang Hakbang sa Kinabukasan (First Step towards the Future)".
Some 2,000 children in Grade 1 levels in five district schools of Bohol (Baclayon, Albur, Loay, Lila and Dimiao) have recently received school supplies from GMA Kapuso Foundation.
The children received a package of school supplies packed in a knapsack that contains five notebooks, two pencils, two pad papers, a sharpener, and a box of crayon.
Evident with the loud expressions of “Thank you” to GMA Kapuso, the children including their parents and the local school authorities were grateful for the initiative hoping that this will encourage the kids to value and pursue education, amidst poverty, to improve their lives.
The company and its foundation will continue to help ensure that many of the Philippines’ next generation achieve a bright future.

mod files to acceptable videos by most media player
including i - Phone, i - Pod, Apple TV, PSP, Zune, Blackberry, Creative Zen,
etc with no quality loss. There are Blu-ray home theater systems which have the capability to stream Netflix, Pandora, You - Tube,
or other media applications, apple tv and
Roku XD is technology that basically gives you the
option to not have to pay for a Blu-ray player.
One of the biggest changes is the fact that Apple has removed the permanent storage (hard drive) from the device.
In fact, even if you lost the whole partition, data recovery is still able to retrieve the lost data for you.
Even so, several average well-known options of their software are: listening to stay phone calls, notification for Sim modifications, locale checking with Worldwide positioning system, accessibility to emails dispatched and
received by way of the i - Phone, view phone documents background and other specifics of
inbound and outbound phone calls are the attributes that are preferred in most i - Phone spy applications from distinctive makers.
The samsung chromebook is essentially a laptop that
can only surf the internet and run apps.
