SALN ni Corona inilabasartikulo ng impeachment labankay Corona sa pagpapakita ngprosekusyon ng mga SALN ngPunong Mahistrado.

Tinukoy ni Cuevas napinaratang sa Article 2 ng rekla-mong impeachment na nilabagni Corona ang Saligang-Batas atnagtaksil sa tiwala ng publiko

when he failed to disclose tothe public ang mga SALN niya.The fact alone that there is

SALN is proof enough that hehas filed and complied with therules and regulation on the mat-ter, ani Cuevas sa hukuman.

Ngunit sinabi ni Senate Presi-dent Juan Ponce Enrile, presidingofficer ng hukuman, na pagsunodlang sa subpoena na inisyu kayVidal noong Martes ang pagha-hain ng mga SALN ni Corona.

Napuno ang ikatlong arawng pagdinig ng salitang pagpi-pilit ng mga hukom-senador kay

Vidal na ilabas ang mga SALNni Corona, na nasa pangangala-ga niya katulad ng sa iba pangmga hukom ng Korte Suprema.

Ilang ulit na tumanggi si Vidal,

tinukoy ang pasya noong 1989 nanaglalayong protektahan ang mgakasapi ng hudikatura mula sa de-ceptive requests for information.

Matapos iwasan ang mgatanong ng prosekusyon kungdala niya ang mga SALN ayumamin si Vidal na dala niyaang mga iyon nang tanungin ni

Sen. Franklin Drilon.Makaraan nito, iniutos ni En-rile kay Vidal na iabot sa huku-mang impeachment ang dala ni-tong mga SALN ni Corona.

Rico J should knowTV shows come and goBut news is news. And as

long as you get your factsstraight, its not a crime to writeabout something ahead of the

rest. Theres no such thing aswrong timing if your story isright.

Having been in the biz for solong, Rico must know by nowthat TV shows come and go.Maybe he is still in denial. In-stead of giving a message to Ri-co, let me paraphrase his signa-ture song, Kapalaran.

Bakit ba ganyan ang buhaysa show biz/Isang araw mayshow ka, sa sunod ay wala

na/Kapalaran kung hanapin dimatagpuan/At kung minsaynaunahan ka sa balitang di moalam/Bakit kaya may ligayatlumbay/Sa show biz, may bigottagumpay/Di malaman, dimaisip/Kung anong network,Rico, sa iyo ay naghihintay.

Instead of harping on theend of HYY, maybe Ricoshould focus his attention onhis love child with a youngersinger whos craving his loveand affection. Shows are tempo-rary, children are forever.

Pinoyat heart

It was such a thrill to meetDavid Archuleta ofAmerican

Idol fame. I visited the set ofNandito Ako, his dramaserye

with TV5, on its first taping day.As soon as we were introduced,he hummed Hello Dollyand saidits one of his favorite songs.

I got to listen to his versionofNandito Ako. I was pleasantly

surprised that he sang it in al-most perfect Pinoy diction. Heis also set to record its English

version, Forever With You (astranslated by the songs com-poser, Aaron Paul).

Hes a fan of Regine Ve-lasquez, so there are plans forhim to meet her and Ogie Al-casid as well. Im sure Ogie willlike Davids version of his hitsong, Nandito Ako.

Direk Mac Alejandre said

David is such a delight to work

with. He knowswhats expected ofhim. And hes a per-fectionist. Siya mis-

mo ang gustongumulit ng eksena ifhe feels he can domore. If only hecould stay herelonger, it would begreat to do a movie

with him. For a first-time actor, hes anatural.

The Archuletafever has spreadacross Asia. Fans

from neighboringcountries are evenflying in to watchhis tapings. Davidsfans from all over

Asia will be includ-ed in the concertscene of his tele-serye (Visit fol-lowarchuleta.ph andfollow TV5mani-la@twitter.com.).

He took time outfrom his hecticschedule to attend aMormon service lastSunday. After histhree-week stayhere, he is off to Singapore, be-fore going on a two-year hiatusto fulfill his religious mission.

While shooting, David is notcomfy when there are too manypeople around because it dis-tracts him. There were fivebodyguards assigned to keep aneye on him, but he requested to

trim it down to three.He is allowed to work only

for 12 hours a day, and he hasto rest for the next 12 hours be-fore he resumes work (in com-pliance with the rules of the Ac-tors Guild, of which he is amember).

Be that as it may, David issurely turning into a Goliath inthe hearts of Pinoys.

JR,There comes a time inevery relationshipwhen women would

feel insecure abouttheir husbands workand the people they

have to deal with toaccomplish them . Weall know what yourhusbands job entails.

Most of the time, hisclients would call the

shots and he would beleft with no choice butto comply.

JR, I believe thatwhat you feel is natu-

ral and any woman inyour shoes would gothrough the sameepisodes of paranoiaand depression . But,what compounds thisis the fact that yourare pregnant . The

physiological changes

that take place in yourbody and the adapta-tions that you have to

go through all makethis feeling of insecuri-ty extend beyond the

point of sensibility.You are probably

imagining more thathalf of what you feel .Your husband keepsaway some details ofhis girlie bar and KTVnight outs not for any-thing else but becausehe knows you would

probably be not com- fortable with what youare going to hear.

JR, trust is impor-tant in all relation-

DEAR Joe,Right now, I dont think that I really

have an earth-shaking problem, but Isure need your advice before thingsget out of hand. I am due to give birtha few weeks from now, and am notsure if its my hormones but I feel soparanoid and insecure right now.

I am ap-proaching mysecond yearof marriage,and I can saythat I am tru-

ly blessed tohave marrieda wonderfulman. Sure he is notperfect, but whateverhis imperfections orshortcomings, I viewthese as opportunitiesto grow and deepenour relationship for

years to come.So where is the

problem? You see myhusbands job is withsales, and when

youre dealing withclients you have tobring them out. Sincehe mostly deals withthe male species, hehas to bring them togirlie bars. Most ofthe time he tells me

where they went andwho he was beenwith, but there aretimes when I feel that

he hesitates, for whatreason I havent reallyasked him yet. Some-times I encounternumbers and namesof girls written on thecalling cards of thebars they go to, ontissue papers. Do youthink he asks for thesenumbers or is it really

the practice of GROsto give away theirnumbers to clients?Do you think I havegrounds to justify myfeeling like this?

If you are going toask about the so-called womans in-stinct, so far it is noton alert mode. I re-spect and trust myhusband enough toknow that he is notdoing crazy thingsand that hes not thetype who would hurtmy feelings. But myheart, the emotionalside of me is very cu-rious and would liketo question a lot ofthings.

Joe, please give mewords of wisdom and

encouragement, toknow what I must doand put my feelingsin the right perspec-tive. Also what shouldI do in times when Ifeel like goingthrough his thingsand investigate? I feelthat this is a very lowthing to do and I

just a passing stage.Soon all your doubtswill be erased and

your worries will beover. Once you have

communication is thehighest and caring

DLSU ANIMO SQUAD

Ready, fearlessbecause Ive beenhearing that theyrenot really content withtheir ranking last yearand I see them workinghard, says Paulina.

So what happened in lastyear NCC where they slippedfrom fourth place in 2010 to

17th?Natasha explains, Aside

from a lot of (members) gradu-ating, it was difficult because it

was the first time that wejoined the all-girls division lastyear and the trainings (forboth divisions) were held allat the same time and weneeded people in the all-girls team to be in thecoed team and vice

versa, I guess it got

very tiring for us.Maybe the coed

(team) was compromised in away, adds Nikka de Dios.

But things are looking up ev-er since the Animo Squad cameunder the instruction of CoachRhufa and his coaching staffcomposed of Ramon Saliegue,Marlon Domingo and Francis

Asonto.Its going to be more visual

because were now un-

der Coach Rhufa. We al-ready have the skills butwe dont have the chore-ography and the creativi-ty (before) but now,theyve seen (what we arecapable of in) UAAP andtheyve seen how much wehave changed as a squad, soexpect more surprises, explainsNikka, who is on her last termas a member of the pep squad.

There is no doubt that theteam has put a lot of confidence

in their coach. But Coach Rhufareminds the team that whilethey know he can help them,they must help themselves too.He tells the squad, Dont stopbelieving. Dont stop trainingand learning kasi kapag sumali

By Din Villafuerte Junior Inquirer

THEY took everybody by surprise when they hada podium finish after twelve years of frustra-tion in the UAAP Cheerdance Competition last

September.

Now, the De La Salle Univer-sity (DLSU) Animo Squad is

more determined than ever toprove theyre not just accidental

winners in the National Cheer-leading Championships thiscoming February.

It was one roller-coaster rideof a year for the team.

The Animo squad placed17th in the coed division of theNational Cheerleading Champi-onships while finishing firstrunner-up in the all-girls divi-sion of the same event last year.

But they caught the attentionthe fans by bagging the 2011Fil-Oil Flying V CheerleadingCompetition trophy and placingsecond in the UAAP event.

Coach Ruf Vandolph G.Rosario, head coach of the Ani-mo Squad since April last year,knows that expectations on theteam got high ever since they

went home as champs from theFil-Oil competition. Coach Rhu-

fa, as he is fondly knownaround the cheerdancing cir-

cuit, remembers telling theteam, Panindigan nyo na yan.

The team expects to do wellin the coming NCC qualifiers.Weve been working hard andtheres been a lot of changes so

we deserve it, says second yearMarketing major Natasha Men-doza. We can do it, its goingto be a better year for us.

Rookies Anna Bongato andPaulina Alberto, both freshmen,are also hopeful. Champions

for the all-girls (team) and Ithink the coed (team) will real-ly do better, says Anna whenasked about her expected out-come of this years NCC. I ex-pect championships for bothteams (the coed and all-girls). I

want to see my team happy be-cause weve been working hardall year and for my seniors also

ka sa Animo Squad panindiganmo, gawin mo yung mga dapatmong gawin. At higit sa lahat,ilagay mo yung puso mo sateam.

The 2011 NCC Coach of theYear clearly believes in the DL-

SU pep squads potential aswell.

If theres one thing about

the Animo Squad, is that theydont feel fear, discloses CoachRhufa. They are so driven andhell bent on doing well thatthey always tell him, We dont

want to lose again, coach. Hindika namin papahiyain.

And they dont talkabout not making it in

competitions.Walang usapan na ga-

nun, smiles Coach Rhufa.Sinasabi ko sa kanila na kung

ano yung skill na meron tayo,yun ang ilalabas natin. Sinasabiko na whatever happens, justdo your best, of course for LaSalle, says Coach Rhufa. He re-minds the team that they arenot this not just for themselves

but for God, their family, friendsand most especially theirschool.

Back with a blast!

squad also preparedhard not just for theprize itself but also forthe mere satisfactionthey will soon get ifthey perfectly executetheir routines.

Kahit hindi kamimanalo basta nagawanaming ng magandaat maayos ang rou-

tines namin, sobrangsarap na sa pakiram-dam, Joanne Asun-cion said. Pinaghira-pan namin ng sobrapara magawa lahatng yon kaya nakaka-satisfy kapag na-fulfilllahat ng maayos.

Even though halfof the squad whocompeted last time al-ready said their good-

THE longwait is fi-nally over.

After a two-yearabsence in the Na-tional CheerleadingCompetition, the FarEastern UniversityCheerdancers all havetheir guns loadedready for battle andtheir eyes intenselyaimed on only twothings; perfection andexcellence.

We are a different

FEU team from whateveryone saw two

years ago, said juniorcheerleader Eryka DeRoxas. We are morepowerful and hungrythan what we werebefore.

True enough, theboys and girls of CoachJacquelyne Alolor-Alotahave their fingerscrossed, hoping that all

the hard work would

be enough to bring therowdy and roaringcrowd of the countryspremiere cheerleadingtournament one heckof a comeback.

Bigger and betterThe FEU squad hasalways been a crowdfavorite in the Univer-sities Athletic Associa-tion of the Philippines(UAAP) CheerleadingCompetition but theychoose to leave theircomfort zone andonce again go againstall odds in trying toearn themselves a topthree slot in the NCC.Despite being taggedas pre-tournament fa-

vorite, FEU settled forthird place last yearin the UAAP.

And they are justmore determined tobring home the baconand fulfill the missionthey failed back then.

Theres a bigchange in our routinesthat would surprise ev-

eryone who watched

on ang tatak namin,iyon rin ang makikitanila.

Although theyhave kept a highfighting spirit, theyknow how to settleeverything on thestage and amidst allthe tension; they stillkeep in minds true

essence of cheerlead-ing.

We know themeaning of a friendlycompetition, Asun-cion said. We make

friends kapag mayoras, get to knowthem and also, learnfrom them.

And since they areaware that it will nev-

er be easy, CoachAlolor-Alota alwaysreminds them the 3Ds, which she consid-ers one of the factorsfor her team to sweepthe championship.

Determination,determination anddiscipline, that is

what coach Jacque-lyne always tell us,shared Astillar. Ito

ang meron ang teamna sobrang pinapaha-lagahan namin.

With their breath-taking routines, high

jumpers, renowned

cheers and people whobelieve in them side byside, the FEU cheer-dancers are confidentenough, knowing thattheyll make their sup-

porters proud.This fight is for

the FEU community,for everyone whosupports the team,our coach and men-tors and most espe-cially, to God, ex-plained Asuncion.Gagawin namin anglahat at sinisiguradonamin na hindi silamapapahiya.

For the secondtime around, the FEUCheerdancers will trytheir hardest to steal

what they believe isrightfully theirs.

Ateneo Blue

Babble readyto surprise

By Denison Dalupang

FAR Eastern University, University of the Philip-pines, champion Central College of the Philip-pines and rival De La Salle University.

All of these squads may haveled people to forget the AteneoBlue Babble Battalion going in-to this years National Cheer-leading Championship hostili-ties.

But the Blue Babble Battal-ion believe that they will havetheir presence genuinely feltthis year. The Blue Babble will

see action in the NCR qualifierson February 4 at the Mall ofAsia Activity Center.

Weve matured over theyears, said Babble cheerleaderPia Matas. Considering we al-so hacked-out what

we thought of hold-ing us back in theprevious years.

Despite being onthe back seat sincecompeting in the

NCC, the Babble hasnever finished out-

side the Top 10.Kiesha Silayan, another Bab-

ble cheerleader notes that Ate-neo will bring something newto the competition this season.

We tried to experiment.Were infusing variety in ourroutines in stunts, said Silayan.

Were going out as a squadhaving a little bit of everything

rolled into one, concurredMatas.The Babble will draw great

boost from coach Randell SanGregorio, who was tapped as

coach for the nationalcheerleading squadalongside Tina Fer-rer of CCP, JaySayno of St. Benildeand NCCs JRDavid.

Were happy thatwe have our coach

by our side, saidMatas, who wasalso handpicked torepresent the na-

tional colors underSan Gregorio.

Hes both a friendand a mentor to us.He knows our ca-pacity and he tendsto meet us halfway

by asking us suggestions andthen trying to mix it with hisown, Silayan added.

Part of the Babbles corewould be Ateneos squad cap-

tains, seniors Jessie San Juanand Desiree Fadri.Theyre the ones we look up

to. They also provide us withstrength, said Matas. Theylook out for us, checking our er-rors, and the consistency of ourroutine.

They do that without havingto make us feel theyre our se-niors. We are friends with eachother, said Silayan.

Surprise will be Ateneos keythis year. With the Babble tryingto buck expectations and to notstick with a certain style, thesquad will certainly tickle spec-tators imaginations, makingthem muse how potentially ex-plosive they can be this comingseason.

I believe another strengthwe have is companionship.Through that, we can weaveourselves seamlessly as a unitand thats where the creativityrolls out, said Matas.

Creativity works hand inhand with how cohesive we canbe, added Silayan.

But at the end of the day,Ateneo just wants to enjoy, exe-

cute and pull it off according toMatas.I believe every squad out

there is a threat to anybody.Whatever rank we land, as longas we think we deserved it, itsgoing to be fine with us.

Armed with enthusiasm and

positivism, this might be theBlue Babbles year to shine.

The Rise of the FallenBy Alexandra Jessica Esponga

THE Immaculate Concepcion Academy(Dasmarias, Cavite) All Stars madetheir debut in the National Cheerleading

Competition two years ago and as almost ev-eryone expected, they left the stadium emp-

ty handed with tears in their eyes, disap-pointed and hurt.

It became their saddest and most heart-break-ing experience and they promised themselves it

would never happen again.

We took that as a challenge and an inspiration to dobetter, said senior cheerleader Jaireen Arasula.

And that brought them to where they are now. Only ontheir second try, they savored the sweet taste of victory andbecame the brightest Stars in the tourney.

This year, however, would be their ultimate test as they de-fend their title for the first time. But the girls of Archie Merisare decided: never again would they feel that painful loss, nev-er again would the Stars lose their light.

Though devastated, these girls never thought of quitting,especially only after their first try, and they never enter-tained the urge to hang up their sneakers and costumes forgood.

Masakit nang sobra pero never namin na-isip na i-giveup na ang pagsasayaw, quipped Marielle Vallano. Kapagmahal mo ang ginagawa mo, kahit gaano pa kahirap at

kasakit ang kailangan mong pagdaanan, itutuloy mopa rin. Ganoon ang nangyari sa amin.

Pagkatapos ng classes, diretso na kaagad kamisa training, shared sophomore Chona Viray.

Exhaustion never stopped them to pursue ex-cellence not only in cheerleading but of course,in their studies. They say that school and aca-demics are still on the top of their list of priori-ties and dancing only comes next after that.

Nais rin namin makakuha ng mataas nagrades, Jasmin Barzaga.

One of the many things Coach Meris tellsthese girls is to never be satisfied, there issomething more. She also reminds her team

the importance of humility.Marami nang naaksidente sa amin pero

determinado pa rin kami, said Arasula whoshares some of her teammates injuries.

And they are hopeful that all of those sacri-fices would be sufficient, that theyll end thisseason with the crown, still. After all, accord-ing to these girls, they have only one motivein this competition and that is to prevail andcontinue their reign as champs.

Gusto lang naming manalo at hindinamin iniisip na talunin ang mga kalabannamin, Viray said.

The ICA All Stars know how crucialthis tournament is and they are prettydarn sure that they wouldnt want to re-peat history all over again.

Sa cheerleading, do-or-die lang la-gi, walang second chance, walang baw-ian, quipped Varasula. Kaya namansobrang pinaghandaan namin ito at

lalaban kami ng parang wala nang nexttime. Ibibigay namin ang lahat ng kaya

namin ibigay.

Unity key for Paraaque NHSALMOST all happily-ever-after stories are those that one has to work very hardfor, it is never easy and most of the time, protagonists have to battle through aseries of unfortunate events and sometimes face the most painful of them all;defeat. And that is how the Paraaque National High School closed the firstchapter of its book. But their story goes on; they manage to turn the tables andhad their chance to write their very own version of a happily-ever-after just aftera painful loss. Yung pagkatalo namin, ginamit namin para bumangon kamiulit, said Katherine De Leon. Indeed, losing their most valuable possession isdefinitely not in their system. This, despite an expected very hard competition.Masaya na nakakatakot yung feeling, she added. Alam namin na lahat ngmga teams ngayong season, sa amin nakatingin kaya mas kailangan pa nam-ing galingan. However, multi-award winning Coach Rhufa Rosario always re-minds the team that no matter how pressured they are, safety is their numberone priority and each of the members of the squad must look out for each oth-er. We treat each other as brothers and sisters in the team, said ChristianVanessa Olea. Although being young cheerleaders isnt easy and at times, theyget scolded by their parents because of getting home late due to practices, they

show their love for cheerleading not by acting rebellious but by proving thatthey can manage both school and dancing at the same time. Gagawin naminang lahat para maging back-to-back champions kami at naniniwala kami nakaya namin to, stressed Keycie-lene Paguio. Alexandra Jessica Esponga
