POWERFUL SPEECH BY CECILIA CULVER!
“I cannot celebrate my own graduation without a heavy heart, knowing how many students in Pal€stine have been forced to stop their studies, expelled from their homes, and k!lled for simply remaining in the country of their ancestors.”
LOOK: Filipino movie "Sunshine" wins the Crystal Bear for the Best Film at the 75th Berlin International Film Festival or Berlinale.

THE BLIND LEADING THE LOST: A NATION BETRAYED
"He who accepts evil without protesting against it is really cooperating with it."
– Martin Luther King, Jr.
The halls of Congress and the Senate reek of betrayal. This is no longer just a circus—it is a grand heist, a vicious mockery of the Filipino people's sacrifices. While we break our backs, bleed, and sacrifice for this nation, our so-called leaders are busy looting not just our wealth but our very dignity. Their spectacle of greed and indifference has condemned 119 million Filipinos to despair. They are no leaders—they are traitors. Blind to the needs of the nation, leading us to a chasm of hopelessness.
A RUTHLESS BETRAYAL
Let us not mince words—this is treason. When Congress butchered billions from education, they didn’t just adjust a spreadsheet. They tore futures from the hands of Filipino children. They shattered the dreams of students who saw education as their only escape from the clutches of poverty. They sabotaged a nation’s chance to rise, condemning generations to mediocrity and despair.
Article XIV of our Constitution mandates that education receive the highest budgetary priority. Yet these cowards violated the law with impunity. They robbed the classrooms, burned the books, and locked the gates of learning. Our dismal global ranking in Math, Science, and Reading is no accident. It is a crime. It is murder—the murder of our children’s potential.

LOOK: Former Supreme Court Justice Antonio Carpio, Atty. Howard Calleja, former Ombudsman Conchita Carpio Morales, former Finance Undersecretary Cielo Magno, and former Commission on Audit Commissioner Heidi Mendoza filed a petition challenging the constitutionality of transferring PhilHealth funds to the national treasury on October 16.
The third tranche of PhilHealth’s “excess funds,” totaling P30 billion, is set to be transferred to the national treasury. (Contributed photos)
15. Myth: The Food Pyramid is the Optimal Nutrition Guide
Truth: The original food pyramid promoted high-carb and low-fat intake, which contributed to the obesity epidemic.
A more balanced approach, emphasizing healthy fats and proteins, is much better.
14. Myth: Supplements are a Waste of Money
Truth: While a balanced diet is essential, supplements can fill in nutritional gaps, particularly for nutrients that are hard to get from food alone, like omega-3s and vitamin D.
13. Myth: All Protein Sources are the Same
Truth: Animal protein is complete (contains all essential amino acids), while many plant proteins lack some essential amino acids, impacting muscle growth and recovery.
12. Myth: Fat Makes You Fat
Truth: Consuming healthy fats like those found in avocados, olive oil, and nuts can actually promote weight loss and support heart health.
It’s refined carbs and sugars that lead to excess fat storage.
11. Myth: Organic Means Healthier
Truth: Organic junk food is still junk food.
While organic fruits and vegetables can reduce pesticide exposure, it doesn’t automatically mean the food is healthy or nutrient-dense.
10. Myth: All Plant-Based Diets Are Healthier
Truth: A poorly constructed plant-based diet (high in processed plant foods) can be just as unhealthy as any other diet.
Focus on whole, nutrient-rich plant foods if choosing this lifestyle.
9. Myth: Salt is Bad for You
Truth: Excessive sodium can be harmful, but many people don’t get enough quality salt.
Natural salts like Himalayan or sea salt can support electrolyte balance and overall health.
