GILUBA sa 19 anyos ang iyang kaugalingon human giingong nakawala og cellphone sa iyang ig-agaw niadtong Miyerkules mga alas 7:00 sa gabii sa lungsod sa Initao, Misamis Oriental.

Giila ang biktima nga mao si Shiela Villanosa, dalaga, residente sa susamang dapit.

Ang uyoan niini nga maoy nakakita sa biktima nga gipasakitan ang kaugalingon niini niingon nga unang nanghulam og cellphone ang biktima sa ig-agaw niini, apan dihang nawala, posibleng nahadlok ang biktima kung unsay irason labina wala man gituyo niini.

Nakita kining mikuha og kutsilyo dayon giluba ang iyang paa nga mitaroy pa dihang daling gidala sa Northern Mindanao Medical Center (NMMC) ning siyudad sa Cagayan de Oro.

Gitouhan sa uyoan nga posibleng nahadlok kini nga makasab-an niadtong tungora mao nga gusto na lamang niining hunoson ang kaugalingon.

Samtang miguwa usab ang taho nga gibulagan ang biktima sa uyab niini hinungdan nga gustong maghikog.

Ubos pa sa oberbasyon, ang biktima ning panahona sulod sa emergency room human wala pay panimout sa pagsulat ning balita. (Stephanie V. Berganio)

Thursday, May 5, 2011


USA ka Kano wa mobayad sa motel ug gipasanginlan sa duha ka mga babaye nga mugbo og lupad nga gidungan sila sa paggamit apan way bayri.

Apan sa dimalas ang maong langyaw, kay wa masuhito sa lugar, nadakpan siya sa niresponding pulis sa usa ka motel sa V. Rama Avenue pasado alas 3 kagahapon sa kadlawon.

Ang suspek nga gidakop giila sa kapulisan nga mao si Rhaso Altidor, taga New Jersey, Estados Unidos, apan lumad nga taga Haiti.
Ang nireklamo mao ang tagdumala sa motel ug ang duha ka mga babaye nga sila si “Gina,” 27, ug si “Myla,” 24.

Si SPO4 Carlito Cosare sa San Nicolas police nagkanayon nga nagkita sa usa ka imnanan sa dalan F. Ramos ang langyaw uban sa duha ka mga babaye.

Nag-inom pa ang tulo hangtod nga nagkasinabot sila nga manggawas ug manulod og motel bugti sa tag P5,000 nga bayad matag usa ka babaye.

Tungod sa kadako sa gisaad nga bayad, wa kini balibari sa gagmay nga mga babaye ug nisugot bisan pa man sa gidak-on ug gitas-on sa langyaw.

Si Gina nga nahinabi sa Sun.Star Superbalita niingon nga samtang didto na sulod sa motel, gidungan sila sa langyaw sa paggamit, apan sa dihang nakalingkawas ang langyaw, ila na kining gipaninglan, apan wa na mobayad.

Nikalit kini paggawas sa lawak dayon nigawas sa gate hangtod nga nidagan paingon sa gawas sa motel.

Naalarma ang mga roomboy ug security guard, nitawag sila sa kapulisan hangtod nga nagukdan ug nadakpan kini sa dan A. Lopez.

Atol sa pasiuna nga imbestigasyon, si Altidor niingon nga gibayran na niya og tag P1,000 ang maong mga babaye.

Iyang nasakpan si “Gina” nga nimaniho pagkuot sa iyang kwarta sulod sa iyang pitaka, samtang naggamit siya kang Myla.

Sulod usab sa presinto, ang langyaw nibayad sa motel samtang ang duha ka mga babaye ningpirma nga di na lang sila mokiha.

Ang langyaw gibuhian samtang namauli ang mga babaye nga gigamit sa biktima.

By Alex Moore Thursday, May 05, 2011





The image of the Dalai Lama as the human embodiment of compassion and spiritual enlightenment has always been somewhat remiss with the current Dali Lama. Born in Tibet in 1935, this Lama presided over a period of violent conflict with China, saw his long-standing Tibetan government abolished and absorbed into the People’s Republic of China in 1959, and took about $2M per year from the CIA during the ’60s to train resistance fighters.

Not your average Lama.

So perhaps it shouldn’t come as a surprise that he indicated yesterday that, at least in some sense, Osama bin Laden’s murder was justified.

Speaking at a crowd at USC, the Dalai Lama, according the Government in Exile’s official report, said, “In the case of bin Laden, his action was of course destructive and the September 11 events killed thousands of people…so his action must be brought to justice.” The reductive old proverb taken from Buddhist ideas has perhaps never been more accurate: karma’s a bitch.

The Government in Exile disagreed with the assessment, however, noting that “we must have compassion and a sense of concern” even with a terrorist like bin Laden. But you can’t have it both ways: either the murder was justified or not justified. If it was justified it’s still a religion-approved murder, whether or not that murder was carried out compassionately.

Meanwhile Archbishop Williams, British leader of the Anglican branch of the Christian faith, today offered a similarly contradictory line of thought: It was wrong to kill bin Laden, but only because he was unarmed in the house. “I think the killing of an unarmed man is always going to leave a very uncomfortable feeling because it doesn’t look as if justice is seen to be done,” he said, as if after coordinating the deadliest terrorist attack in history bin Laden’s death would have been made just simply by being armed when Navy SEALS stormed his room.

Possibly the most compassionate religious stance, almost unbelievably, came from the Vatican. Historically Roman Catholicism has made all kinds of enemies (Muslims, gays, small boys) but the Vatican released a statement that while Chistians “do not rejoice” over a death, bin Laden’s murder serves to remind them of “each person’s responsibility before God and men.” The Vatican added it hoped this “would not be an occasion for more hate, but for peace.”

It’s hard to imagine the Catholic Church beating out the competition as the most tempered, reasonable religious voice on the scene. But there you have it.

Quote from: Way Nada on May 06, 2011, 07:56:21 AM
Again it is always in an election. Remember revolution is always illegal.

WN


So you expect the dictator to conduct a clean and honest election to find out whether or not the people he is oppressing would want to throw him out? You expect him to honor the voice of the people? Or ar you saying that the people have no recourse at all and therefore will just have to accept their misfortune and stoically wait for the oppressor to die?

What some dictators do is cling to legitimacy by insisting on the letter of the law (which oftentimes was made by them)--the spirit of the law and the sentiments and welfare of their people be damned.

"LAWFUL," HOLDER SAYS

Attorney General Eric Holder, the country's top law enforcement officer, told a U.S. Senate committee on Wednesday that the operation was legal.

"He was the head of al Qaeda, an organization that had conducted the attacks of September the 11th," Holder said. "It's lawful to target an enemy commander in the field. We did so, for instance, with regard to Yamamoto in World War Two, when he was shot down in an airplane."

The White House said on Tuesday that bin Laden was not armed, contradicting an earlier U.S. account that he had taken part in a firefight.

At the Senate hearing, Holder said that even if bin Laden had tried to surrender, "there would be a good basis on the part of those very brave Navy SEAL team members to do what they did in order to protect themselves and the other people who were in that building."

Former Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, who served in the Bush administration, said the analysis should end there.

"He was a military target," Gonzales told Reuters. "We're in a conflict -- there's no question about that. I'm not sure what the debate is about."

COMPLICATED PICTURE

Gonzales added that whether bin Laden was armed or not was irrelevant. "Suppose we fired a missile," said Gonzales. "Would we be asking the question if he was armed or not?"

The legal analysis of a U.S. operation is different if bin Laden is considered a mass murder suspect, Ratner said.

"If you're operating in that framework, you would only be able to kill a suspect if they represented an immediate threat to you," he added.

Complicating the picture is that bin Laden was indicted in Manhattan U.S. District Court in 1998 for conspiracy to attack U.S. defense installations, said David Scheffer, director for the Center for International Human Rights at the Northwestern University School of Law.

"Normally when an individual is under indictment the purpose is to capture that person in order to bring him to court to try him," Scheffer said. "The object is not to literally summarily execute him if he's under indictment."

Ratner and Scheffer said key questions remained about the operation, such as what instructions the Navy SEALs who carried out the mission were given and what efforts bin Laden had made to surrender.

Scheffer said if the Navy SEALs were ordered to kill bin Laden without trying first to capture him, it may have violated American ideals if not international law.

"It seems to me that with the character of our society, it might have been more consistent with American values to have at least ordered his capture with rules of engagement," he said.

NEW YORK (Reuters) â€" International law experts in the United States said important legal questions remained about the killing of Osama bin Laden even as the Obama administration defended the action.

While an act of Congress a week after the September 11 attacks gave the U.S. president broad powers to act against terrorism, the legality of the commando killing of the al Qaeda leader is less clear under international law, some experts said.

President Barack Obama got a boost in U.S. opinion polls, but the killing raised concerns elsewhere that the United States may have gone too far in acting as policeman, judge and executioner of the world's most wanted man.

Both the Bush and Obama administrations made capturing or killing bin Laden a top priority. Each was willing to act alone on intelligence toward that goal even if bin Laden was in Pakistan across the border from Afghanistan.

"It's a complicated question as a legal matter," said Steven Ratner, a professor at the University of Michigan Law School. "A lot of it depends on whether you believe Osama bin Laden is a combatant in a war or a suspect in a mass murder."

Under the theory that the government is at war against al Qaeda -- which the Obama administration has adopted -- one could argue that the killing of bin Laden was legal.

"Whether he has a gun or not really doesn't matter," said Ratner. "You're lawfully permitted to kill combatants."

Cascadilla Falls
by A.R. Ammons


I went down by Cascadilla
Falls this
evening, the
stream below the falls,
and picked up a
handsized stone
kidney shaped, testicular, and

thought all its motions into it,
the 800 mph earth spin,
the 190-million-mile yearly
displacement around the sun,
the overriding
grand
haul

of the galaxy with the 30,000
mph of where
the sun's going:
thought all the interweaving
motions
into myself: dropped

the stone to dead rest:
the stream from other motions
broke
rushing over it:
shelterless,
I turned

to the sky and stood still:
Oh
I do
not know where I am going
that I can live my life
by this single creek.

Quote from: cujo on May 05, 2011, 09:51:23 PM
Language has created the word ' loneliness ' to express the pain of being alone,and the word  'solitude ' to express the glory of being alone.

                                            Paul Tillich

"I am so lonely I can't stand it. Solitude is a richness of spirit. But loneliness rots the soul." --Bill Knott

An interesting literary note:

In a letter to Leslie Marmon Silko, October 12, 1978, the poet James Wright wrote about Bill Knott: Some years ago -- I forget how many -- a friend wrote me a note from Chicago. I call him my friend, though at the time I hadn't met him. His note was simple: "I'm so lonely I can't stand it. I don't mean solitude. I need solitude. But loneliness rots the soul."
