Church leaders encourage the faithful
to offer novena prayers, special devotions,
and to recite the Holy Rosary in honor and
in celebration of the divine motherhood of
Mary.
Also known as the Maternity of the
Blessed Virgin Mary, the title Mary, Mother
of God was accorded the Blessed Mother
during the Council of Ephesus in 431 to celebrate the fact that Mary, being the mother
of Jesus, who is God, was to be called Mother
of God. In memory of the event, Pope Sixtus
III built in Rome the Basilica of St. Mary
Major, one of the four major basilicas of the
Catholic faith.
The observance of World Day of Peace is

QCPD seizes
P50,000 worth
of firecrackers
By VANNE ELAINE P. TERRAZOLA
More than P50,000 worth of illegal firecrackers were confiscated in various areas
in Quezon City as police intensified their
campaign against banned firecrackers
and pyrotechnics, the Quezon City Police
District (QCPD) director said yesterday.
Chief Supt. Edgardo Tinio presented
the seized firecrackers amounting to
P50,730 to media at Camp Karingal, Quezon City.
Among them were the piccolo, which
has victimized mostly children; Judas
Belts; kwitis (sky rockets); whistle
bombs; Pop-Pop; watusi (dancing
firecrackers); fountains and other pyro-
technics.
Tinio said these items,
seized by the QCPDs 12
police stations since Christmas Eve, will be destroyed
by the QCPD Explosive
Ordnance Division in the
province of Rizal in coordination with the Firearms
and Explosive Ordnance
Division of Philippine National Police Camp Crame.
He said police operations to rid the streets of
banned firecrackers were
to continue through the
New Years Eve until today.
While lauding the police
commanders and operatives who had seized these
illegal firecrackers, Tinio
said no vendors were jailed
because they managed to

Maritess 15 years ago.
Maritess said she lived with her
father in Bulacan until her parents separated when she was only two years old.
She lived with her mother, stepfather, along with her four other siblings in
a mosque in Villalobos, Quiapo, Manila.
Even if her mother only sold plastic bags
in Quiapo for a living, at least they had
a normal life.
Everything was going smoothly until
2009 when they were forced to leave

threat of terrorism," police said.
"Kenyans should remain vigilant at
all times and know that we are facing a
real terror threat since the split of alShabaab into two groups, one supporting
al-Qaida and another the Islamic State,"
Inspector General of Police Joseph Boinnet told the Associated Press. "We are
facing a real terror threat because these
two groups are struggling to outsmart
each other. This, therefore, is not a time

rare US winter flood
ST. LOUIS (AP) A rare
winter flood that brought record
crests along the Mississippi
River in Missouri and Illinois
and swamped parts of Missouri
caused evacuations and at least
20 deaths, with the threat of
more flooding expected to last
until early next week.
An unseasonably wet late
fall and early winter had already
swollen the Mississippi River
above its normal winter levels
when heavy rains drenched
most of Missouri beginning on
Saturday.
Mark Fuchs, a hydrologist for
the National Weather Service in
St. Louis, says three-day rainfall
totals of 9 to 11 inches stretched
from southwest to east-central
Missouri, causing rainfall totals
that occur only every 100 to 300
years.
The flooding prompted authorities to evacuate residents
in some smaller towns, mostly
near St. Louis.
Downtown Alton, Illinois, was
open for business on Wednesday
after volunteers constructed a
7-foot, 1,000-foot wall of sandbags to protect the town.
The heavy weekend rains
also caused flooding in southwest Missouri in Carthage and
nearby Kendricktown, where
some residents were evacuated Sunday. And residents
in about 55 duplexes and 100
single-family homes in the
tourist community of Branson,
Missouri, were evacuated but
the city's popular shopping district remained open and busy
Wednesday.

BUTUAN CITY Residents in
the southernmost portion of

a magnitude 4.3 earthquake
at dawn yesterday Philippine
Institute of Volcanology and
Scismology (Phivolcs) said. The
regional action and monitoring
center of the Office of Civil
Defense (OCD) in Southern
Mindanao said there was
no immediate report on
casualty or damage after the
earthquake struck the town of
Baganga. Meanwhile, in nearby
Surigao del Sur, a magnitude
3.1 tremor was also registered
at 5:21 a.m. Its epicenter
was plotted 54 kilometers
southeast of Hinatuan town,
with a depth of 22 km, Phivolcs
also said. The Davao Oriental
tremor occurred at 3:36 a.m.
with its epicenter traced at 83
kilometers (km) northeast of
Baganga town, Davao Oriental,
the Phivolcs, in its bulletin
said. The tremor was tectonic
in origin, with a depth of 10
km, it said. It was caused by
movements along a local fault
in Davao Oriental, Phivolcs
said. No aftershock was
registered, the state agency
said. No tsunami alert was

system deficiency was 150 MW, lengthening the power interruptions endured
by some areas.
Additional load curtailment among
grid customers was also implemented
for several hours during peak hours
due to maintenance shutdown by some
power plants.
Hope
But with the return of the generating facilities of STEAG in Misamis Oriental and Mt. Apo in Davao following a
maintenance shutdown, the deficiency,
since November 3, 2015, was pegged
at 40MW.
This, however, still places the Mindanao Grid on red alert status.
Community effort
So as not to aggraviate the already
volatile power situation in Mindanao,
NGCP is appealing to the public to
help monitor the safety of the towers
so that transmission services remain
uninterrupted.
If anyone sees anything suspicious
at or around our towers and facilities,
please inform us immediately. You may
text us your tips and other information
at 09178791077, an NGCP appeal to the
general public said.
To hasten the restoration of transmission services to affected areas,
NGCP attempts to energize its BaloiAgus 2 line, which was earlier disabled
because of uncooperative landowners who are preventing NGCP from
conducting much needed vegetation
clearing activities.
Right of way hurdles
This brings to fore the other cause of
power curtailment due to transmissionline "intentional vegetation."
NGCP has also repeatedly appealed
to the government and the Philippine
Army for assistance in resolving escalating security and right-of-way issues
in Mindanao, aside from the filing of
expropriation cases.
"For now, we are filing expropriation
cases, because their demand has been
very, very exorbitant. They run into millions of pesos even if the government
estimate is very small. They are our
biggest headache those who demand
exorbitant amount," said Abellanosa.
System operator NGCP has sought
the immediate assistance of the government and members of the Philippine
Army as its right-of-way (ROW) woes
breached critical level with the sustained tripping of the Agus 2-Kibawe
Line 1 in Mindanao on October 17,
2015, due to a fallen tree cutting the line
conductors.
The situation was further aggravated as landowners are refusing entry
to NGCP personnel deployed to clear
and restore these lines, which are vital
to the grid.
AFP, NDF

DAVAO CITY The National
Democratic Front in Mindanao
(NDF-Mindanao) accused a
high-ranking army official of
being behind the militia group
who threatened the members
of the media in Mindanao
that covered the recentlyconcluded 47th anniversary
of the Communist Party of the
Philippines (CPP). Jorge Madlos
alias Ka Oris, spokesperson of
NDF Mindanao, said Col. Isidro
Purisima, commander of the
402nd Brigade of the Philippine
Army based in Surigao del Sur
is using the Magahat Bagani
paramilitary group to threaten
the journalists in Mindanao. By
allowing criminal paramilitary
groups to issue death threats
against members of the press,
Col. Purisima has made the
mass media a veritable target
of state terrorism, Madlos
pointed out. The accusations
made by Madlos was also
criticized by Eastern Mindanao
Command (Eastmincom)
saying that such are false and
fabricated. Eastmincom chief
information officer Captain
Alberto Caber told the Manila
Bulletin that Madlos is just
making stories to taint the
image of the military from the
media. Madlos can accuse
anybody in the military. What
is certain is that his story is
concoctedly designed to taint
our image from the public and
to the media, Caber stressed.

Jihadists inspired by the Islamic State spreading in Syria, Iraq, and Libya, brought terror this
past year to the streets of Paris, France, as well
as San Bernardino in California, US. This new
year may see the US, Russia, and other nations
take more decisive action to stop the Islamic
State, but religious extremism has never been
easy to contain in all of human history.
Fortunately for the world, another movement
made great headway in Paris this past year a
move to hold back climate change resulting from
global heating. Many countries agreed in Paris
to shift as much as they can to the use of renewable energy away from fossil fuels like coal, oil,
and gas. The new year should see the growth
of this movement to save our planet Earth by
a combination of efforts to keep down global
temperatures.
In our own country, the Philippines, the new
year will be dominated by an election campaign to
elect the next president of the country. Filipinos
just love their elections for many reasons. One
is that it is elections that are the hallmark of our
democratic system of government. Most of the
time, government officials may dominate life in
31 days of thanks
CELEBRATION
Month.
In order to make the best use of this celebration
of gratitude, lets begin by seeing what Scripture
says about thankfulness.
One place to start is Psalm 136, which begins and
ends with the words, Oh, give thanks (vv. 1,2 6).
Again and again in this chapter we are reminded of
a single, overriding reason to bestow our gratitude
on our great God: His mercy endures forever.
We could spend the whole month learning about
gratitude from Psalm 136.
The psalmist reminds us of Gods great wonders (v. 4). He tells us of Gods creative work
brought on by His wisdom (v.5). He moves on to
It gains strength from the successes and triumphs of
the past year as it provides an occasion to draw valuable lessons from failures and miscalculations of the
preceding year.
May the setbacks of 2015 and stumbling blocks of
2016 serve to give us the humility to admit that we
could do better; give us courage and determination
to get back on track, to rectify possible mistakes
and miscalculations, and repair whatever damage
rehearse the great exodus of His people (vv. 1022). As we think through these pictures of creation
and deliverance found in Psalm 136, we can easily
find something to thank God for every day of this
Thank You Month.
What better way to start off a new year than to
concentrate on conveying gratitude to our Lord!
Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! For His
mercy endures forever (v. 1). Dave Branon
How good it is to thank the Lord,
And praise to Thee, Most High, accord,
To show Thy Love with morning light,
And tell Thy faithfulness each night!
When you think of all thats good, give thanks
to God.

Staying on the

Filipino dream
here is the famous American dream that has fueled a
lot of sacrifice. President Xi
says he has a China dream
not dependent on Western ideas. China
had been bullied by the West from 1840
to 1940. All of these dreams are based
on sufficiency or abundance of food
plus freedom. Most national dreams
are variants of these two. But there
should be a third element: And that is
adoration of God. The American dream
is silent about this adoration of God;
the Chinese dream adds a respectful
reading of ancestral sayings. There is a
common acceptance that sufficiency of
food and freedom cannot be maintained
without the help of the Almighty or
some mystical force beyond our own.
The human being, after his efforts to
provide for the future, realizes that food
and freedom cannot be achieved on his
own efforts alone. So it is food , freedom,
and adoration.
We have come to the end of the
year. Before we go to face the future
we have to look back over the past year
and thank the Lord for all His gifts. For
some it has been a difficult year but still
there are many things to be grateful for.
So we thank the Lord for His gifts and
graces that made us get through the
past year. There were mistakes but for
the most part we can no longer do any-

wo ethnically produced preserved pork leg meat products may shift world market
dominance.
Christmas may be over and many
Filipinos have, one way or the other,
relished some slices of ham which was
the centerpiece of media noche fare
on many dining tables.
Our fascination for ham, many historians believed, may have begun in the
15th century when Chinese merchants
traded their cured leg of pig, along with
silk and potteries, for local spices, gold,
and pearls.
Likewise, ancient chroniclers wrote
with firm belief that the three-ship expedition of Magellan also carried cargoes
of the preserved pork leg delicacy. But
those Spanish products were part of the
meal provisions of the vessels officers
and crew, and were never exchanged for
local merchandise or items.
Hence, it was the Chinese bone-in
ham that became the much sought-after
delicacy among the early Maharlikas or
affluent royalty. It has remained so to this
day, although, a number of brands has been
manufactured locally since the 1950s.
Notably, imported Chinese hams are
still very much around, made available by
traders in big quantities, quite understandably, during the Yuletide season.

NEW YORK (AFP) New York
Knicks' reserve forward Cleanthony
Early was shot in the leg in an apparent robbery after leaving a strip club
overnight, reports and officials said
Wednesday.
The incident occurred moments after the 24-year-old left the CityScapes
Gentlemen's Club in an Uber, according to CBS and the New York Post.
A group of armed and masked men
robbed Early after surrounding the
Uber with their cars, reportedly robbing him of gold chains and even gold
caps on his teeth.
In the process, Early was shot in
the leg, according to the reports.
A spokeswoman for the New York
Police Department confirmed that a
24-year-old man had been shot in the
leg in Queens but declined to name the
victim.
''He was transferred to a hospital.
No arrests. There is a investigation ongoing,'' she told AFP.
The New York Knicks posted a
short statement on their Twitter account following the incident.
''We are aware of what occurred
with Cleanthony Early this morning
and are relieved that he is not in a
life-threatening situation,'' the Knicks
said.
''We will not comment any further
until we receive more information.''

DTI to review
proposed
Consumer Act
amendments
By Bernie Cahiles-Magkilat
The Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) will review its proposed
amendments to the Consumer Act with
the aim of imposing stiffer penalties
in light of the United Nations revised
guidelines on consumer protection.
DTI Officer-in-Charge Atty. Victorio
Mario A. Dimagiba said there is a need
to review the proposed amendments
to ensure the countrys consumer protection law complies with the new UN
Guidelines for Consumer Protection
(UNGCP).
I will submit to the Senate and
house chairs Senator Bam Aquino and
Rep. Mark Villar and we shall study
whether we need to add new provisions
in the proposal to amend the Consumer
Act which is now with Congress,
Dimagiba said.
The additional provisions for the
Consumer Act that Dimagiba is looking
at include access to essential goods and
services, and the protection of vulnerable and disadvantaged consumers,
financial services and same protection
for online and offline consumers.
The DTI will be pushing for stiffer
penalties and more motu propio powers
to DTI for violations against consumer
protection rules.
Countries like the Philippines have
to study with all stakeholders how to
adopt the new UNGCP in our laws,
he added.
The new UNGCP key additions include recognition of access to essential
goods and services, and the protection
of vulnerable and disadvantaged consumers as new consumer legitimate
needs; new guidance on e-commerce,
parity of treatment between online
and offline consumers and protection
of consumer privacy; new guidance on
financial services, public utilities, good
business practices and international
cooperation and; a new Intergovernmental Group of Experts (IGE) on
consumer protection law and policy
to monitor the implementation of the
Guidelines, serving as a forum for
exchange.
Recently, both the Senate and the
House of Representatives under the
Committees on Trade and Industry
have been deliberating on the amendments to the Consumer Act of the Philippines to update the areas of consumer
protection as it applies to e-Commerce,
motu propio cases powers by the DTI,
and increasing penalties for violation of
the Consumer Act.
Dimagiba, however, said that the
amendments to the Consumer Act may
be passed by Congress under the new
administration already.
Meantime, Dimagiba said the DTI
welcomes revised UN guidelines for
consumer protection stressing this is
an opportunity to put consumers at the
heart of business and development.
The adoption of the revised guidelines was made through a resolution
last December 22, 2015 in New York
City.
The highlights of the revised guidelines include:

Both agencies also cited new rule
issued by several international and local
airline companies that passengers will
no longer be permitted to bring lithium
battery-powered personal transpiration
devices, commonly referred to as hoverboards, on their flights due to safety reasons. This rule is applied to both checked
and carry-on baggage.
This is in compliance with the International Air Transport Association (IATA)
regulations on the transport of dangerous
goods, which includes lithium batteries.
Passengers are advised to consult with
their airlines on allowable materials
including toys that can be brought on
board or checked-in, to avoid any inconvenience.
While there have been no reported
local cases of fires, explosions or injuries,
the DOH-DTI-Consumer Protection
Group shall continue to address and
investigate safety issues and concerns
and exercise its authority to protect
consumers to the full extent of the law
under the Consumer Act and Toy Safety
regulations.
Both agencies vowed to keep the public posted once new studies and information on hoverboards become available.

2015 Motoring
Year in review
By IIGO S. ROCES
transport the
Pontiff while
he was in country.
The answer came in the
form of three vehicles: a Volkswagen Touran, a specially designed
white Jeepney, and a
purpose-built Isuzu
D-Max which the Pope
himself requested another unit of, for use in
Vatican City.
Pickup Wars
There had never
been a better time to
buy a pickup than 2015
with the Pickup Wars
in full swing, thanks to
the launch of all-new pickup models
the Nissan Navara NP300, and Toyota
Hilux along with the timely arrival
of the updated Mitsubishi Strada, Ford
Ranger, Isuzu D-Max 3.0 and Chevrolet Colorado Tracker Pro, all within
the same year. The buyers couldnt be
more spoiled for choice with all these
new models vying for attention with
attractive deals, modification packag-
es and new
features.
New PPVs
As if a whole selection of
pickups werent enough, their counterpart SUVs, the pickup-based passenger vehicles (PPV), also kicked off
what could be a raging 7-seater SUV
w a r
for this year. Ford
took the early
lead with the
arrival of
the muchawaited
all-new
Everest.
Isuzu, in
turn, presented the
highly
anticipated 3.0-liter
VGS engine for the Mu-X. Mitsubishi
teased their new Montero Sport and
is still accepting reservations and offering discounts before the vehicles
official launch this month. We can
only imagine what storm will come
once Toyota finally brings in the
Fortuner.
mbdrive.editor@gmail.com
New brands
The auto industry got
a little more crowded
too. Though for those
in the market, thats
definitely a good thing.
Mahindra made waves
even before its arrival
by bagging a PNP patrol vehicle contract
with its Enforcer rugged
SUV. The brand would launch a few
months after, with private versions of
the Enforcer and the Xylo AUV.
Lotus arrived a few months after,
offering driving purists a taste of
British engineering in the form of
the Elise, Exige and Evora sports
cars. Admission was high, with prices
beginning at P4 million, however, few
can argue with its no-compromise approach to performance.
Finally, Aston Martin landed in Manila late in the year, giving secret agent
aspirants all over the country a glimpse
of what its like to be James Bond. The
brand is offering the entire lineup, from
the four-door Rapide, all the way up to
the V12 Vanquish.
Sports
cars
For those
seeking some speed and excitement,
it proved to be an interesting year as
well, with the arrival of Mazdas MX-5
roadster. The diminutive sports car
has certainly caught buyers and critics
attention, earning for itself a number of
car of the year accolades this year.
Those with a little more to spend
could look into the newly launched
Ford Mustang
40th Anniversary,
Porsche 911 Targa,
Mercedes-Benz
AMG GT, BMW
M3 and M4, Audi
TT, and Ferrari
488 GTB.
Mazda MX-5
Monster Jam
Off-road action came to Manila in the form of
Monster Jam a
(COA).
Those who have paid the fee during
their previous vehicle registration will
still be issued their new license plates
as soon as it becomes available, according to the LTO.
Sec. Joseph Emilio Abaya of the Department of Transportation and Communications (DOTC) is still hoping to
resolve the issue so that the agency
can continue with their standardization
program.
We are currently in the process of
resolving the issue with the COA regarding the Plate Standardization Program. We hope issues will be resolved
and COA lifts the disallowance so we
can provide the public with plates for
improved road safety, Abaya said.
The LTO claims that their new
license plates have new safety features
that aim to prevent illegal practices
such as tanggal-plaka or plate removal or switching done by carnappers
and drivers of colorum public utility
vehicles.

This level was lower by $1.1 billion than the

In addition to restoring the livelihoods
of farmers and fishers, the government has
also undertaken to provide new livelihood
opportunities to survivors; an example of this
is the entrepreneurship training majority
(80.22 percent) of the targeted 364 trainings

Balisacan noted that resettlement of the

To date, only a total of 13,335 housing units
have been completed, with construction of
79,219 houses ongoing and scheduled for

Among the issues slowing down the building of resettlement sites are policies on procurement and land acquisition and the many

start certain projects.
NEDA is intensively coordinating efforts
to address these policy and implementation
issues with the concerned agencies.

The Wall Street Journal
fter shrugging off their lowestcost rivals, the biggest US airlines are now taking them head
on resulting in a bonanza of
cheaper tickets that is benefiting fliers
but weighing on revenue.
Plummeting fuel costs have helped
make it more profitable to add flights and
seats, extending already rapid expansions by ultra-low-cost carriers Spirit
Airlines, Inc. and Frontier Airlines. Those
two offer cut-rate fares while charging
fees for basic things like printed boarding
passes and seat assignments.
Spirit has doubled its seats in Chicago
since 2012, for example, and added 27% in
Dallas. Meanwhile, established discount
giant Southwest Airlines Co. has ballooned its capacity in Dallas, one of its
largest airports and where it was freed
from federal restrictions late last year.
The trends have pressured the three
largest carriers by traffic: American
Airlines Group, Inc., United Continental
Holdings, Inc. and Delta Air Lines, Inc.
In years past, they generally avoided
broad fare skirmishes with their upstart
competitors. Now, also emboldened by
cheap fuel, they are responding aggressively. American in late December was
selling a round-trip flight from Dallas/
Fort Worth International Airport to Fort
Lauderdale, Fla., on Jan. 5, returning Jan.
El Al Israel
Airlines shares
years top
gainer at 350%
At first sight, investors have good
reason to shun El Al Israel Airlines
shares.
The national carrier is grappling
with a slump in tourism fueled by political violence, as well as intensified competition after Prime Minister Benjamin
Netanyahus government opened the
market to low-cost operators in 2013.
Yet the 1.39 billion- shekel ($357 million)
company has a combination of factors
in its favor: Falling oil prices and the
strength of the shekel.
The airlines shares have risen as
the price of Brent crude sank to an 11year low this year, cutting the price of
fuel needed to run the carriers fleet of
about 50 aircraft.
El Al reported last month a nine-fold
surge in third-quarter earnings to $93
million, the highest three-month profit
since at least 2004. The company paid its
shareholders in August the first dividend
since 2008. The stock rose as much as 3.2
percent, bringing its 12-month advance
to 351 percent, before paring gains to fall
2.9 percent to 2.804 shekels at the close
of trading in Tel Aviv.
The performance represents a turnaround for El Al. In 2013, airline officials
and unions predicted the Open Skies
agreement with the European Union,
which gradually increased the number
of airlines operating between Israel and
Europe, would crush the local aviation
industry.
The stock has increased four-fold in
the past year to outperform every one
of its global peers. Psagot Investment
House Ltd., Israels largest money
manager, says the shares may rise at
least a further 50 percent as Israelis take
advantage of their increased purchasing
power. The number of people taking trips
abroad has risen 15 percent so far this
year, according to the Jerusalem-based

Slimming: Contours
Advanced Face and
Body Institute
Lets deal with everyones main concernall that overeating! Hey, dont beat
yourself up. Whats a great holiday without
all the festive eating? If you were slacking
off your exercise routine during the break,
then you already know the first part of the
year will be devoted to mindful eating and
getting back into shape.
The trifecta of a safe and effective
weight loss program is proper diet, exercise, and a doctor-approved program to
support your weight management. Others
take doctor-recommended supplements,
or opt for non-invasive slimming machines
to get things moving (fat, most especially).
Contours offers LaserFita holistic
approach to losing the extra pounds while
simultaneously sculpting the body. Its a
combination of fat-melting cold laser (Zerona), 10-minute interval training, and
proper nutrition. The idea of the program
is to fight off excess weight by improving
fat release.
You start off by identifying the areas you want to target (for example, the
stomach or abdominal areas), and exposing it to the Zerona cold laser. It only
takes a few minutes of you lying down on
your back and if needed, on your stomach. After the laser, you move on to an
exercise room where you go for easy-tofollow workouts. In the workout room, you
would also find an interesting machine
the VibraFit, which literally shakes off
all the melted fat in your system.
Although it may remind you of those
vibrating plates youre skeptical of, it actually makes sense when you think about
it. After I did my quick workout and proceeded to this machine, I was thinking it
may, in a way, facilitate the way fat would
travel and be expelled in the body. Due to
increased circulation, you are making it
easier for the excess water and fat to settle

Skin Staycation:
The Aivee Clinic
In the bright and breezy Commerce Center in Alabang, you will find
The Aivee Clinic. Only a few months
old, the new addition to the Aivee Institute surpasses your expectations of
what an aesthetic clinic should be. In
true Aivee league tradition, the clinic
has very soothing and comfortable interiorsmaking patrons always feel
at home. Understated luxury is seen
in the calm pastels and blush tones,
accentuated by subtle gold accents.
Lounging at the lobby while sipping
on your healthy lemon and basil water
already feels like a treat in itself.
Whether you reside in the south or
at the opposite end of Alabang, a visit
to the clinic for some skin pampering
is a staycation in itself. Think of it as a
beauty destination. Bring your partner
and get the couples room so youll both
enjoy the treatments together. A day of
pampering is the best gift you could give
each other after the crazy holiday rush.
For an hour or more of your stay at
the clinic, its all about relaxed luxury.
The rooms are vibrant and inviting,
with beds calling out for much-needed
slumber. Each one blends in with the
surrounding greenery, bringing the
outdoors in through a design reminis-

pieces
Known for its five-pocket blue jeans,
Levi Strauss has also added the denim
trucker jacket to its iconic pieces. The
Trucker has undergone subtle modifications, the most drastic being the addition
of hand pockets in the 1980s. There have
also been collaborations with other brands that have mildly tweaked
the designs and fabrics but the core design has remained the same.
Fans of the Levis Trucker Jacket will love the new Down Trucker
Jacket which has all the authentic details of the Original Trucker but
with goose down insulation for maximum warmth. The jacket is made
from 100% Cotton (Midweight Denim) with button front closure and
button chest pockets. This is perfect for traveling to places with colder
weather as the jacket can be compressed for easy packing.

The New Year is as good a time as any
to juice up your closet with cool gear
Cool
attitude
From James Dean to James Bond, The
Matrix to Mad Max, the leather jacket is one
of the strongest sartorial statements you can
make, with a long, very cool history of people
and characters who favor this piece for that
rebel (with or) without a cause look. Freego
came up with its own take, with a slim cut,
spread collar, and zip cuffs. The brands faux
leather jackets feature an asymmetrical front
zip closure, silky leopard print interior, and
angled dual zip front pockets.
Freego is available at leading department
stores nationwide
Versatile
classics
In this day and age
of image enhancement,
men need comfortable
and versatile pieces in
their wardrobe that will
make them look sharp
and well-dressedrain
or shine. Dockers shares
five tips in choosing
the perfect pants: first,
know your body and the
styles and cuts that suit
your body type. Second,
get inspiration from
others whose style you
like or admire. Notice
how they put together
their outfits to figure
out your preferences.
Third, choose comfort
over style because you
look your best when you
exude self-confidence,
which
comes
from
feeling at ease in your
clothes. Fourth, dress
appropriately according to what youd be doing or where youd be
going that day to avoid
looking over- or underdressed. Theres nothing wrong with repeatedly wearing clothes
that look good on you,
just mix and match to
keep things interesting.
When looking for
pants, go for a pair
thats wearable, functional, and great-fitting,
such as the SignatureOn-The-Go line. Its versatility will make it easy
to pair with your favorite
shirt, top, and jacket.

How To Be Single
Starring: Dakota Johnson, Rebel
Wilson, Alison Brie, Leslie Mann
If I could spend a night as a single
in New York, this movie is how I
hope it would turn out, with Rebel
Wilson as my guide and lifeline. I
may get in trouble but at
least there would be lots
of laugh. Billed as a romcom, it is based on a novel
Deadpool
Starring:
Ryan Reynolds, Morena
Baccarin,
Gina Carano
and more
If its
from Marvel, expect superhero action and a bit of laughs. Ryan Reynolds didnt really score pretty well
with audiences when he first played
a superhero (Green Lantern, 2011)
but studio bigwigs have given him another shot. He plays Special Forces
operative Wade Wilson subjected to
an experiment to treat his cancer,
and it gave him awesome abilities
and a twisted sense of humor. Based
on the trailers, it seems Reynolds
brand of humor works with this
character. Warning: Too graphic for
kids.
Zoolander
Starring: Ben Stiller, Owen Wilson, Will Ferrell, Penlope Cruz,
Kristen Wiig, Benedict Cumberbatch,
and a host of celeb cameos
Zoolander had a cult following
that thrived on silly humor and poking
fun at the world of modeling male
modeling, to be precise. Directed by
Stiller, with a script he co-wrote with
Justin Theroux (Jennifer Anistons
fianc), this long-awaited
sequel sees musical celebrities getting assassinated
and left with Derek
Zoolanders (Stiller)
iconic Blue Steel
look on their faces. So
Interpol brings Derek
and model-friend Hansel (Wilson) for help.
All this is going on as
Dereks rival, designer
Jacobim Mugatu (Ferrell), is plotting his revenge. Cumberbatch
playing an androgynous supermodel is
priceless.
Batman v Superman:
Dawn Of Justice
Starring: Henry Cavill, Ben Affleck, Gal Gadot, Jesse Eisenberg,
and more
What happens when superheroes
with gold-like powers are left to do
whatever they want? Answer: The
Batman! Hes not having any of that,
and he is certainly not a fan of Superman. As the two grow to become each
others nemesis, the world is left to
ask what kind of hero it really needs.
And then, a new threat arises. Will
Bat (Affleck) and Supes (Cavill) set
aside differences and rise to the occasion? Man of Steel had lukewarm
reviews upon its release; and news
of Affleck in the Batsuit was initially
met with a collective groan from fans.
Still, theres no way you should miss
this. Besides, two words:
D-6
Wonder Woman.
13 hours
Hail, Caesar!
Starring: George
C l o o n e y, C h a n n i n g
Tatum, Scarlett Jo hansson, Tilda Swinton, and others
The latter years of
Hollywoods Golden
Age has been given
a comic spin in fourtime Oscar-winning
filmmakers Joel and
Ethan Coens new film.
Written and directed
by the power brothers,

UST A THOUGHT:
Destiny is not a
matter of chance,
it is a matter of
choice. It is not a thing to
be waited for, it is a thing
to be achieved. William
Jennings Bryan
HURTING ACTORS:
John Lloyd Cruz is hurting,
but naturally.
He lost out to Jericho
Rosales (Walang Forever)
in the best actor category of
MMFF 2015.
More than the personal
hurt, JLC laments his entry,
Honor Thy Fathers disqualification from the best
film category of the 41-year
festival that closes on Jan.
7, 2016.
The last-minute disqualification stemmed from
Honor Thy Fathers previous single screening at the
Cinema One Originals Film
Festival earlier in 2015.
Another actor whos
hurting at the filmfest is
Cesar Montano, who appeals on behalf of the industrys small players. His film,
Nilalang, at the tail end
of eight entries at the box
office, was quickly pulled
out of 34 theaters after its
opening day.
Director Erik Matti is
naturally the most outspoken
among the hurting ones in
the aftermath of the MMFF
fiasco. He denounced the
festival and appealed to the
public to be more vigilant
and to demand for better
films and wider choices in
the cinemas.
You deserve better, he
said, even as he thanked the
MMFF for providing his
film free publicity in the
process.

mo. Susundan na kailangan, ipagpatuloy ang sinimulan, he says.
Edwards goal is to sustain the momentum of his achievements in 2016.
He wants to get into new things, maybe
do a concert, record another album and
even try more theater. His motto this
year is moving forward.
Fortunately, groups like the Philippine Movie Press Club (which is behind
the annual Star Awards for Music) and
MOR 101.9 recognize his potential.
Siguro nakikita yung potential ko
to be this person na malaki pa yung
pwede ko ma-achieve as a singer, sa craft
ko, na-a-appreciate nila na ako yung
bago ngayon, as a pop rock balladeer.
His manager, stage and screen actor
Arnold Cruz Reyes, believes Edward still
has a long way to go. When Edward won
the awards in 2015, he was surprised but
says things arent going to stop there,
that there is much more in store for his
ward.
Edward says one way of ensuring
a better year is to stay positive and see
criticisms constructively.
Ang daming bonus ni God para sa
akin, he says.

YOUR STARS
(friday, 1 January 2015)
ARIES (March 21-April 20) You will get most of your way but do
make sure that your associates have no reason to feel aggrieved. Avoid pampering to yourself, but there is no reason for not seeking to make things easier
for yourself. Do not miss an opportunity to make amends for a past omission.
TAURUS (April 21-May 20) You would do well to forgive and forget
about a difference of opinion between you and a friend of yours. There is no
time to waste, but do not work so fast that you become slovenly or superficial. It
is much easier to start than to continue and finish an enterprise, determination
is what counts.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) The general situation is not as clear as
you would like it to be and you should be on your guard. There will be some
unanticipated difficulties but with attention and perseverance, you will be able to
deal with them. Make sure you appreciate a friendship and reciprocate it.
CANCER (June 21-July 20) Even if you do not quite know what to
do, do not despair, soon a remedy will come to you. Everything seems a bit too
much to you just now. Do not let matters rest there; instead make a tremendous
effort to overcome your reluctance.
LEO (July 21-Aug. 20) You will encounter more positive circumstances and will be in a better mood. You will now be able to do more rapidly
something you had to learn how to do. You will discover something wrong with a
working plan. Before initiating any action, make sure others are informed.
VIRGO (Aug 21-Sept. 22) If you are in any doubt, seek to overcome
it before finally proceeding. Do your best to avoid taking hasty and irrevocable
actions and do not try to do things more quickly than they can be done well. You
will now be able to reap the benefits of something you started some time ago.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) A decision by which you are bound will tend
to be rather unfair, but by accepting it, you will make it more bearable. A new
plan will require you to break with tradition. In the long run this will however be
justified as there is no other way to cope with the situation.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 22) There will still be time to make up for
something you have forgotten, but you must be quick about it. You are apt to
ignore things that are not to your liking. Instead face up to and deal with them
without delay. You will now be able to form a closer link between yourself and
your friends.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 20) You should try to ensure that you
have a clear idea of where you are going as well as the means to getting there.
You will be able to use your intelligence to good effect do not shy away from so
doing Do all you can to maintain your independence and freedom of action.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 21-Jan. 19) You are inclined to mix up what is
and what is not, so take care to identify and segregate them. Although you may
have thought twice, think once more before finally deciding exactly on what to
do. You will not find it easy to get down to what has to be done, pull yourself
together.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) You are entering a more positive
phase and will be able to do better than of late. Your experience will stand you
in good stead when making up your mind. Do not however allow it to hold you
back. Remember to always put to very good use all experiences you have
learned from the past.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) You will now be able to settle a matter
about which there has been some dispute. You will have to exercise a little more
prudence where your personal finances are concerned. Do not proceed on assumptions and seek to get a firm commitment.

Allegiant
Johansson, Christopher Walken and
others
Aside from the star-studded voice
cast, those who love the Rudyard Kipling book will now get to see it come
to life on screen. Directed by Jon
Favreau (who also directed Iron
Man), this is a story
of self-discovery.
dory
Mowgli
(Sethi), a
boy raised by
Indian wolves, had to
leave his jungle home
when a fearsome tiger
Shere Khan (Elba)
threatens his life. On
his journey he is guided by Bagheera, the
black panther (Kingsley) and Baloo the bear
(Murray), and along
the way he meets the
likes of python Kaa
(Johansson) and the
smooth-talking Gigantopithecus (Walken).
Midnight Special
Star ring: Michael Shannon,
Kirsten Dunst, Adam Driver, Jaeden
Lieberher and more
A little sci-fi thriller goes a long
way, especially if done right as
we hope this one has been. Written
and directed by Jeff Nichols, whose
first three feature films Shotgun
Stories, Take Shelter, and Mud
have all received
plaudits from
critics, his fourth
film is about Roy
(Shannon), a father who goes on
the r un to pro tect his son Alton
(Lieberher) who
has special powers. It asks the intriguing question:
Is the boy a savior or a weapon?
Plus, youve got
Adam Driver (the
emo Kylo Ren on
Star Wars: The
the Jungle Book
Force Awakens)
here do you
think theres any
chance his government agent
character is as
emotionally unstable with granddaddy issues as
Kylo?

The Boss
Starring: Melissa McCarthy,
Kristen Bell and more
McCarthy has earned good reviews in the movie Spy, and shes
stolen the movie The Bridesmaids. She may not always get
glowing reviews for her flicks but
she is trying again this time playing Michelle Darnell, the wealthiest
woman in America who is sent to
prison for doing insider trading.
Sounds like someone we know from
the headlines, huh? After serving
time, she comes out and rebrands
herself as Americas latest sweet-
X-Men:
Apocalypse
Starring: James
McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence, Nicholas Hoult, Olivia Munn, Sophie
Turner, Oscar Isaac and more
Worshipped as a god, Apocalypse
(Isaac, who also played the X-Wing
fighter pilot Poe Dameron in Star
Wars: The Force Awakens) the
first and most powerful mutant in the
X-Men universe is immortal and
invincible. He has, after all, amassed
the powers of many other mutants.
Disillusioned with the world he
wakes up to after thousands of
years, he recruits powerful mutants,
including the perpetually unhappy
Magneto (Fassbender), to establish
a new world order. But not if Raven
X-Men: Apocalypse
Captain
America:
Civil War
Starring: Chris
Evans, Robert
Downey, Jr., Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner, Paul
Rudd
Caps standalone films since
Wi n t e r S o l d i e r
and Civil War is
looking like a level-up in the right
direction. Besides,
having Iron Man
(Downey, Jr.) and
Ant-Man (Rudd) in
the mix promises
to make things even
better and a lot
of punches thrown
that doesnt seem
to hurt our heroes
anyway. So the deal
is Steve Rogers/Cap
(Evans) and Tony
Stark/Iron Man
have chosen opposing sides after
another incident
i
nvolving the
nemo
Avengers results
in major collateral damage and
increased pressure to put a system of
accountability in place.

Warcraft
Starring: Travis Fimmel, Paula
Patton, Ben Foster and more
Based on the Warcraft video
game series and novels set in the world
of Azeroth, the film is an origin story of
the initial encounters between humans
and orcs (nope, not necessarily the
Lord Of The Rings kind). It shows
both sides of the conflict and those who
love the game will most likely be counting Easter eggs when they recognize
locations established in the series of
video games. Those not in the know,
meanwhile, could just enjoy the lush
CG sets and creatures that play against
Fimmels Sir Anduin Lothar character.
Fimmel, by the way, stars on History
Channels Vikings so it would be interesting to see him as a film lead.

Finding Dory
Starring: Voice cast Ellen DeGeneres, Albert Brooks, Diane Keaton,
Ty Burrell, Willem Dafoe, Hayden
Rolence, and more
This sequel to Finding Nemo
took so long to be greenlighted, so
this better be good they had a lot
of time to develop the story, after all.
Still, Dory fans would certainly find
things to love about this for sure.
The story takes place six months
after they found Nemo, and when
Dorys childhood memories come
back, she sets out to find her family along with Nemo (Rolence) and
Marlin (Brooks). With the Tank
Gang returning, Dory and company
will also meet new characters like
a beluga whale, a whale shark and
an octopus. What a party under the
sea! (Photos screengrabbed from
YouTube)
