Lord, salamat muli sa pagsikat ng araw. Sa Inyong grasya, naway laging maunang sumagi sa
isipan namin sa araw na ito ang kabutihan kesa pangunahan na naman ng pansariling kapakanan upang ang uumpisahang trabaho sa araw na ito ay mapagtagumpayan. Amen (Roselyn Ruiz)
AGUIO CityNagbunyi ang dalawang panig. Nagpalakpakan ang mga pabor sa reproductive health (RH) law nang ihayag kahapon ng tagapagsalita ng Korte Suprema na unanimous ang pasya ng mga mahistrado na not unconstitutional ang Responsible Parenthood and Reproductive Health Act of 2012 .
Ngunit natuwa rin ang mga kontra sa batas, kabilang ang mga pinuno ng Simbahang Katoliko, nang ihayag na ibinasura ng Kataastaasang Hukuman ang walong probisyon ng batas na magbibigay ngipin sana sa RH law. Kasama sa mga ibinasurang probisyon ang pagbibigay ng kontraseptiba sa mga menor de edad na walang pahintulot ng kanilang magulang, ang pagparusa sa mga manggagawang medikal na tatanggi o hindi magpapakalat ng impormasyon kaugnay sa programang RH, at ang pagparusa sa mga pampublikong opisyal na hindi susuporta sa batas. The [high] court, after a scrutiny of the various arguments and contentions of the parties in the foregoing consolidated cases consisting of 14 petitions challenging its constitutionality and two interventions to uphold its constitutionality, unanimously held that Republic Act No. 10354 is not unconstitutional based on the grounds raised, except with respect to [eight] items, ani Theodore Te, tagapagsalita ng Korte Suprema. May 15 araw ang mga tutol sa desisyon upang humiling ng pagrebisa sa pasya, ani Te. Lumabas ang pasya mahigit isang taon matapos suspendihin ang pagpapatupad ng batas bunsod ng petisyon ng Pro-Life Philippines Foundation Inc. at iba pang pangkat Katoliko na ideklara itong labag sa Saligang Batas. Anila, magagamit ng batas ang pondo ng pamahalaan para sa pamimigay ng kontraseptiba.

MAKAAASA ang mga magsisimba ng mas makintab na mga upuan, mas maliwanag na mga ilaw at mas malinaw na sound system sa muling pagbubukas ng Manila Cathedral matapos ang dalawang-taong pagsasaayos.
Pero ang pinakamahalagang pagbabago ay hindi mapapansin: Ang pagpapatibay sa halos kalahatingsiglo nang Neo-Romanesque na simbahan upang mas makayanan ang mga lindol Inaasahan ang pagdalo ni Pangulong Aquino at ng mga kapatid niya sa muling pagbubukas ng simbahan na mamarkahan ng Banal na Misang pamumunuan ni Manila Archbishop Luis Antonio Cardinal Tagle na sasamahan ng iba pang obispo at pari, anang Arsodiyo-
sesis ng Maynila. Bago ang Misa ng 6:30 gn gabi, magpapalabas ng bidyo tungkol sa pagsasaayos na ginawa sa gusali. Magkakaroon din ng cultural show sa Plaza Roma na nasa harapan ng basilica. [The Mass] will be followed by a special ceremony, which will include the lighting of dedication candles and the installation of dedication crosses symbolizing the founding of our Catholic Church...
with Jesus as the head, ani Msgr. Nestor Cerbo, ang rector ng katedral. Una nang itinakda noong Dis. 8, 2013, ang muling pagbubukas sa simbahan kasabay ng pista ng Immaculate Conception ngunit ipinagpaliban. Isinara ang katedral noong Peb. 7, 2012, upang kumpunihin, ang una mula nang itayo ito noong 1958. Nakitaan kasi ang simbahan ng mga mapanganib na bitak.

GANITO ang unang maririnig ng may hawak sa ticket number 39-21-42-2805-27 kapag dumating siya sa tanggapan ng loteriya upang kubrahin ang premyo: Thank God you won, and, tell no one about this.

HEN 54-year-old Cleofe Navarro boarded the Metro Rail Transit (MRT) carrying her granddaughter Ashley Ann Nepomuceno, there was a momentary silence among the passengers.
A couple of women stood up and gave away their seats. Nanay Cleofe, cradling the sixyear-old child, smiled shyly. Pasensya na po kayo, she said, seemingly embarrassed at her predicament. In her arms was a child with limbs covered in bandages, head bleeding despite the gauze. A visibly weak Ashley wailed in pain while Nanay Cleofe positioned her away from the heat of the sun. Suddenly, a woman sitting across her handed over what seemed to be money. A couple of minutes later, one or two other good Samaritans did the same. Another one offered her a wad of tissues to wipe away the blood. Salamat po sa tulong nyo (Thank you for your help), an overwhelmed Nanay Cleofe said aloud. Meanwhile, Ashley remained silent, perhaps feeling much better because of the cooler temperature. It was at that point that this reporter started a conversation with Nanay Cleofe. Nanay Cleofe said Ashley was suffering from stage 1 bone marrow cancer and a rare skin disease called epidermolysis bullosa, which causes blisters to form on the skin. They had just been to St. Lukes Medical Center where Ashley was supposed to undergo electron microscopy, a test that would have showed the doctor the status of her cancer. collapsed the last time she had chemotherapy and was trying to regain strength for the next one. Her grandmother said that they were not able to avail of the electron microscopy because she only had P3,000 in her wallet. They needed P7,200 for the procedure, which was already a discounted price. St. Lukes was not willing to accept a promissory note for the laboratory exam. Nanay Cleofe was able to raise P1,200 from those who gave them money at the MRT. She said she really wanted to ask for help but was too embarrassed. Fortunately, the people were moved by Ashleys condition, prompting them to contribute. Nanay Cleofe said it was not the first time that it happened. Six times a week, the 54year-old grandmother would carry Ashley from their home in Angeles, Pampanga to St. Lukes in Quezon City and then the PGH. She would often ride the MRT and there were days when people, without being asked, would hand over money to help in Ashleys medical bills. Nanay Cleofe was quite desperate that day because they needed the money for the electron microscopy and because Ashley had started bleeding after complaining of feeling pain in her head. She said the wound was from a type of blood transfusion procedure. Until now they have yet to raise the needed money for the said laboratory test.
CLEOFE Navarro, 54, carries her granddaughter Ashley Ann Nepomuceno, 6, inside the MRT. Nepomuceno suffers from a rare skin disease called epidermolysis bullosa and has stage 1 bone marrow cancer.

through. Gusto ko pong tumagal si Ashley (I want Ashley to live longer), a sobbing Nanay Cleofe said over the phone. For those who want to help Nepomuceno, e-mail us at social.media@inquirer.net so we can connect you to the Navarro family.

Passengers chip-in
In a phone interview the next day, Nanay Cleofe told INQUIRER.net that they rode the MRT on their way to the Philippine General Hospital (PGH) where Ashley is undergoing physical therapy. The six-year-old child
Cash-strapped
Nanay Cleofe said they already have a lot to thank for, especially since Ashleys six chemotherapy sessions, two of which are already finished, are covered by the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office.
In addition to meeting her favorite television host Vice Ganda last year, Ashley was also featured in the show Wish Ko Lang. However, that was back in 2010 when she was not yet diagnosed with cancer. Now, they have to raise at least P6,500 per week for skin medication. While the bone marrow cancer can be cured after four more sessions of chemotherapy, epidermolysis bullosa is a lifetime illness. Younger patients who suffer from it are called butterfly children because of their fragile condition. Among the most famous of these is Johnny Kennedy, who was the subject of the documentary The Boy Whose Skin Fell Off. Kennedy died in 2003 because of skin cancer caused by the said disease. The whole Navarro family is working to fund Nepomucenos medication. Navarro said her two younger children have stopped schooling to help. Her son now drives their tricycle while her middle child works as a sales lady. Her husband is a wood carver who earns P1,800 a week. Ashleys parents, the mother being Nanay Cleofes daughter, are currently unemployed after their contract at the Clark Freeport Zone, where they did laundry work, expired. They are
waiting to be re-hired by their previous employer at a call center. Pag kinulang, naglalaba, namamamlantsa (ako) sa mga kumareng mayayaman. Nakaka P1,000 din maghapon, Navarro said. (If our money is not enough, I also do the laundry and ironing for friends who are rich. I am able to earn P1,000 a day.)
A painful childhood
Unlike other children, Ashley could not go outside and play. She does not have the strength to do so and should not be exposed to the sun. But Nanay Cleofe said Ashley is at her best right now. She used to be in worse pain, suffering from the occasional nose bleed and severe blistering. Her skin looks beautiful now, she said in Filipino. Lately, however, the summer heat has been taking its toll on Ashley, with their old air conditioning unit destroyed by typhoon Ondoys flood waters in 2009. Sometimes, Nanay Cleofe will have to rush Ashley to a small town hotel in the middle of the night so the child could sleep in peace. Another troubling possibility they are facing is Ashleys skin disease resulting in blindness. In the end, Ashley does not mind all the hardships and sacrifices that her family are going

Flaky Star. Isang mole ang tumawag sa bahay ni FS. Siguro wala sa mood na makipagkuwentuhan, nagpanggap si FS na kasambahay, gamit pa ang pekeng accent. Meryl Streep lang ang peg.

Beautiful nightmare
Nasagap mula sa INQUIRER Radio program INQUIRER Entertainment (dzIQ 990 AM, Lunes hanggang Biyernes, 3 hanggang 5 p.m.): Tila bangungot makatrabaho si Beautiful Star. Mukhang hindi kasi siya masaya sa set nitong bagong project. Madalas dumating nang lates si BS, at kung anu-anong sinasabing hinaing para lang matakpan ang kanyang pagiging late. Gusto nang magreklamo sa Big Bosses ng mga kasamahan
niya sa trabaho pero takot sila kay BS. Sa mga mata ng BB, hindi makagagawa ng pagkakamali si BS.
Nawawalang hunk
Palaisipan para sa mga Insiders ang kinaroroonan ni Handsome Hunk. Matapos makipagaway kay Controversial Starlet, bigla na lang nawala si HH sa eksena. Hinala ng isang mole, iginarahe na si HH ni Rich Benefactor, na nakabase sa abroad. Dapat makipag-hook up si
HH kay Noisy Celeb, pero yung kasunduang iyon, na inayos ni Scandalous Personality, ay hindi natuloy. Ayun at ambilis nakahanap ni HH ng ibang sponsor, sa katauhan ni RB.
Disiplinadong drunk
Mula sa INQUIRER tabloid BANDERA: Umaasa ang mga masugid na tagahanga ni Gifted Actor na may gamot sa pagkalulong nito sa alak. Hindi naman nagkukulang ang kanyang pamilya sa pagpapa-alala na hinay-hinay lang. Sa katunayan, ang pagtitiyak na hindi makakainom si GA ay isang nang full-time na trabaho. May kasunduan na si GA sa kanyang mga kamaganak na iinom lang siya ng apat na bote ng beer kada linggo, walang labis, walang kulang. So far, tinutupad ni GA ang kanyang pangako. Pero hanggang kailan?

Nanguna ang 5-foot-8 atleta sa short program bago kunin ang free skate final round na may kabuuang 195.13 puntos. Pumangalawa si Japanese Keiji Tanaka (189.83 puntos) at nasa ikatlong puwesto si Ryuju Hino (183.06 puntos).
Bago ang panalo ay umukit ng kasaysayan ang 17-taongulang skating prodigy bilang kaunaunahang skater mula Southeast Asian na sumali sa Winter Olympics.

Nasaktan ang tuhod ni Martinez dalawang buwan matapos ang kabunyian sa Olympics. I was not very positive in winning the gold, sabi ni Martinez sa Examiner ng Los Angeles. I am not yet 100 percent healed from my injuries. At some point I was tentative in some of my jumps in the long program. Dahil sa problema sa tuhod ay hindi sumali si Martinez sa World Junior Figure Skating Championships sa Sofia, Bulgaria.
