The Impact Player in Jay Washington

Video Credits: SMB/Petron at Youtube The video that I had embedded on this post is the alley oop made on a pass by Chris Lutz to the comebacking Jay Washington. After a 4 point debut against Powerade Tigers, Jay Washington soared high during the next game against Meralco spearheading the Blaze Boosters to 19 points and 9 rebounds. Though Jay Washington still needs to have the "timing" that he used to had before he was sidelinedd, the impact player of Petron Blaze Boosters would probably be the biggest difference maker in the title defense of PBB for the Governors Cup. Who would not forget that he was Back-to-Back Best Player of the Conference before he was sidelined with his injury for almost a year. Now back in Petron uniform, Jay is a mismatch as much as Arwind's spiderman...

Remembering 0-28: Trillo gets first win as Alaska Coach against Barako

It was the 0-28 standing of Adamson Falcons that inspired Luigi Trillo the most. As young as 22, Luigi Trillo was able to coach the Adamson Falcons (1999 to 2000) with a 0-28 showing, something that inspires him as he journeys as an Alaska Coach. However, it didn't took him that long to get his first victory (Alaska won earlier against Barako) Luigi Trillo maybe new to the pro league, but his experience as a UAAP, PBA D-League (he mentored Cebuana Lhullier where he was able to get great players) and as Tim Cone's assistant in Alaska helped his coaching strategies today. And what can I say about Alaska? They are definitely under good...

Corona tried to leave Senate after the walk-out

Chief Justice Renato Corona tried to leave the Senate building after his dramatic walkout at the end of his opening statement in the impeachment trial Tuesday. Footage taken by a Senate source showed that Corona and his wife was caught on cam at a corridor near the elevator beside the Senate lounge. ABS-CBN correspondent Lynda Jumilla said the elevator is used by senators to go straight to the basement of the Senate, which also serves as the parking lot. Corona, however, was blocked from using the VIP access route by 7 members of the Senate sergeant at arms and a member of the Senate legal department. This was after Senate President Juan Ponce Enrile ordered a lockdown of the building after Corona left the witness stand before he could be discharged. The footage showed Corona sitting...

Repost: PNoy never gave Corona a chance: Bongbong

Senator-judge Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. believes President Aquino never gave Chief Justice Renato Corona a chance to prove himself after being appointed as chief magistrate by President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. Speaking to ANC’s PIPOL, Marcos said Aquino’s animosity with the Chief Justice started even before he took office when the President decided to take his oath of office before then Supreme Court Associate Justice Conchita Carpio-Morales. “Even before [Aquino] was elected, he said he would have [Corona] removed, that his appointment was illegal. If you want to impeach him for something, then it has to be something that is a grave and heinous crime and not something that is just procedural, that is just a mistake and is not willful,” he said. Marcos said he sees a double standard...

Senate President Juan Ponce Enrile served notice Sunday he will do everything possible, including extending trial hours until 10 p.m. “or midnight,” to conclude the impeachment trial of Chief Justice Renato Corona by end-May. Enrile, presiding officer of the Senate sitting as impeachment court at the trial that resumes Monday after a six-week recess, said a speedy, fair trial will be in the interest of everyone -- all parties and the public that needs the senators’ full attention to legislative work.

Reuters: What's the value of a College Degree (Repost)

NEW YORK -- How much is that college degree really worth? That depends on your major. It turns out that some undergraduate and graduate diplomas are worth a lot more during a lifetime of work. In fact, the difference in earnings between one major and another can be more than 300 percent, according to recent research from Georgetown University's Center on Education and the Workforce. Researchers there crunched U.S. Census data looking at 171 majors in 15 categories. The full study, "Hard Times: Not All College Degrees Are Created Equal," is available from the school's website (link.reuters.com/wev87s).
