#39059
Potassium alum [tawas] is an astringent/styptic and antiseptic. For this reason, it can be used as a natural deodorant by inhibiting the growth of the bacteria responsible for body odor. Use of mineral salts in such a fashion does not prevent perspiration. Its astringent/styptic properties are often employed after shaving and to reduce bleeding in minor cuts and abrasions, nosebleeds, and hemorrhoids. It is frequently used topically and internally in traditional systems of medicine including Ayurveda, where it is called phitkari or saurashtri, and Traditional Chinese Medicine, where it is called ming fan. --Wiki

Human niini dali kining migawas sa exit door sa maong mall. Sumala pa ni PO2 Roldan Balimbing sa IDMB nga nahinabi sa Banat News nabantayan kini sa kaubang gwardiya nga si Violita Asigbat.

Si Asigbat nagduda sa lihok sa suspek nga nagbitbit og usa ka bag dihang kini migawas sa maong exit door hinungdan nga iyaha kining gigukod apan adto kini miagi sa daghang tawo.

Aron mabalda ang mga gwardiyang naggukod kaniya gikatahong mikuha og binandol nga kwartang tagsa ka libo, tagsa ka gatos ug tag P500 ang suspek ug gisabwag kini sa mga tawo.

Tungod sa nagpasad nga kwarta nagkaguliyang ang mga tawo sa pagpamunit niini hinungdan nga ang mga gwardiya nahunong sa ilang paggukod kang Urian ug gisuwayan pagbawi ang mga kwarta gikan sa mga tawong namunit.

Ang suspek bisan sa kakusog sa pagbunok sa ulan daling midagan sa gawas ug mipara og taksi diha sa dalan Mantawi Drive. Ang taksi gikatahong sa direksyon sa Cebu City padulong.

Ang mga gwardiya sa Pagcor daling mitawag sa kapolisan ug nangayo og backup aron mahipos og balik ang gisabwag nga kwarta ug ang uban ilahang gibawi gikan sa mga tawo nakapunit niini.

Apan P80,000 nalang ang kinatibuk-ang napunit.

Ang mga polis miadto na sa balay sa suspek apan wala na nila kini maabti pa sa Cubacob ug bisan sa laing balay nga giabangan niini sa barangay Punta Engaño sa dakbayan sa Lapulapu tungod kay giingong tulo ka adlaw na kining wala na mouli. (BANAT NEWS)

Ni Romeo Limpangog ug Bong Soriano/EIM (Banat) Updated July 15, 2012 12:00 AM


CEBU, Philippines - Naalibwag ug nasadya og kadiyot ang mga tawo diha sa gawas sa usa ka mall sa North Reclamation Area sa dakbayan sa Mandaue human usa ka tawo ang misabwag og linibong kwarta ngadto kanila nga kabahin diay sa kinawat nga P2.8 milyones.

Nasuta nga ang maong tawo dili diay usa ka “Robin Hood” kay kini gidudahang nangawat sa mismong establisamentong gialagaran nga mao ang Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (Pagcor) sa Casino Filipino, Parkmall satellite branch niini.

Gipangita na karon sa kapolisan ang in-house security sa PAGCOR nga si Pascual Urian Jr., lumad nga taga Capiz ug kasamtangang nagpuyo sa barangay Cubacob sa dakbayan sa Mandaue.

Sa pasiunang imbestigasyon sa kapolisan sa dakbayan sa Mandaue pinangulohan ni Chief Insp. Michael Anthony Bastes, hepe sa Investigative and Detective Management Bureau (IDMB) sa MCPO kaadlawon nahitabo ang pagpangawat.

Sumala pa nga alas 12:50 kagahapon sa kaadlawon samtang nag-duty si Urian kinsa adunay access sa vault nga butangan sa kita sa casino kalit kining misulod didto ug giingong mikuha og binandol nga kwarta.
#39062
Sa dihang rikisahon na unta ni Violeta Ansigbat, external security officer, wa na kini magparikisa ug nidagan dala ang plastic nga kolor puti nga gituohang maoy gisudlan sa kuwarta.

Gisusi sa iyang mga kauban ang vault ug didto ilang napalgan nga abli na kini ug wa na diha ang sulod nga kuwarta hinungdan nga dali silang nanawag sa kapulisan.

Si Mario Malaluan, laing sikyu, maoy nipahibawo sa kapulisan mga ala 1:20 sa kaadlawon.

Atol sa pag-respondi sa kapulisan, ila pang naabtan ang nagpasad nga kuwarta  sa karsada.

Sa ilang imbestigasyon, ang suspek nisakay og taxi dayong sabwag sa kuwarta aron maglisod pagsunod ang mga ninggukod kaniya.

Nasayran sa kapulisan nga si Urian dugay nang nagtrabaho sa Pagcor sukad pa niadtong 2008 mao nga ila na kining gisaligan.

Ang mga sakop sa Investigation Detective Management Branch sa MCPO pinangulohan ni Chief Insp. Michael Anthony Bastes nga nihimo og follow-up nakakuha og impormasyon nga mo usa na ka buwan nga wa na mopauli sa ilang balay sa Barangay Cubacub ang suspek.

Lakip sa ilang gisusi kon wa ba kiniy kunsabo atol sa iyang pagpanguhag kuwarta.

Hinuon sa nakita nga footage sa closed-circuit television camera sa Pagcor nagpakita nga nagbinugtong ra ang gikatahapan pagkuha sa kuwarta dayong sulod sa plastic, matod sa kapulisan.

CEBU CITY -- Usa ka empleyado sa Casino Filipino ang yanong nikawat sa P2.8 milyones sa gisulod sa vault kagahapon sa kaadlawon.

Ang suspek niitsa pa og kuwarta sa mga tawo nga diha sa karsada sa wa pa mobiya sakay sa taxi hinungdan nga way nakabantay ug nakakita sa ngan ug plaka niini sa pagsibat.

Nabawi sa kapulisan ang kuwarta nga balor og P80,000 nga nagpasad diha sa karsada ingon man gipang-uli sa pipila ka mga tawo nga nakapunit.

Ang gikawatan mao ang Casino Filipino-Parkmall branch nga gidumala sa Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation sa Barangay Subangdaku, dakbayan sa Mandaue.

Si PO3 Marvin Pegarido sa Theft ang Robbery Section sa Mandaue City Police Office nga nahinabi sa  Sun.Star Superbalita niila sa gikatahapan nga si Pascual Urian, 29, ulitawo,  internal security staff sa Pagcor,  taga Purok-3, Barangay Cubacub.

Si Urian maoy nagbantay sa cash vault ug abli kini sanglit atol sa maong oras gipahigayon man ang ilang turnover sa iyang kauban nga security staff.

Mga alas 12:50 kagahapon sa kaadlawon ilang nabantayan ang suspek nga mogawas na unta sa ilang buhatan agi sa exit door alang sa mga kawani.

NASA has also awarded SpaceX a contract to develop and demonstrate a human-rated Dragon as part of its Commercial Crew Development (CCDev) program to transport crew to the ISS. SpaceX is planning its first crewed Dragon/Falcon9 flight in 2015, when it expects to have a fully certified, human-rated launch escape system incorporated into the spacecraft.

Besides NASA contracts, SpaceX has signed contracts with private sector companies, non-American government agencies and the American military for its launch services. It has already launched, for a paying customer, a low earth orbiting satellite with its Falcon 1 booster in 2009.[5] The company plans to launch its first commercial geostationary satellite in 2013 from a Falcon 9.

Future projects that are in the planning stages or in development include the Falcon Heavy launch system, as well as a NASA robotic mission to Mars in 2018. The Heavy is based on Falcon 9 technology, and if construction goes as planned, it will be the most powerful rocket in the American inventory since the Apollo-era Saturn V. Falcon Heavy can be used to send a crewed Dragon spacecraft on lunar orbiting missions â€" such as the Apollo 8 mission; or be used to send a modified unpiloted Dragon on a Mars landing mission. Musk has stated that his intention for the company is to help in the creation of a permanent human presence on Mars.

In order to control quality and costs, SpaceX designs, tests and fabricates the majority of its components in-house, including the Merlin, Kestrel, and Draco rocket engines used on the Falcon launch vehicles and the Dragon spacecraft. In 2006, NASA awarded the company a Commercial Orbital Transportation Services (COTS) contract to design and demonstrate a launch system to resupply cargo to the International Space Station (ISS). On 9 December 2010, the launch of the COTS Demo Flight 1 mission, SpaceX became the first privately funded company to successfully launch, orbit and recover a spacecraft. On 22 May 2012, SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket carried the unmanned Dragon capsule into space, marking the first time a private company has sent a spacecraft to the space station. The unmanned, cone-shaped capsule became the first privately built and operated vehicle to ever dock to the orbiting outpost.

Space Exploration Technologies Corporation, or SpaceX, is a space transport company headquartered in Hawthorne, California. It was founded in 2002 by former PayPal entrepreneur Elon Musk. It has developed the Falcon 1 and Falcon 9 launch vehicles, both of which were from conception designed with a goal of eventually becoming reusable. SpaceX also developed the Dragon spacecraft to be flown into orbit by the Falcon 9 launch vehicle, initially transporting cargo and later planned to carry humans. On 25 May 2012, SpaceX made history as the world's first privately held company to send a cargo payload, carried on the Dragon spacecraft, to the International Space Station.
