Eto mga sagot sa FB. Di nila makita connection ng pagboto nang tama sa pinagdadaanan natin ngayon. Haay.
During the super typhoon #Yagi in #Vietnam, many car drivers drove very slowly to shield motorbikes and people from the strong wind (because the strong wind trapped them on the road or on the bridge, they could be blown away if they tried to move). Wanted to hug everyone tightly.
Naaalala 'nyo ba si Michael Yang? Siya 'yung dating economic adviser ni Pres. Rodrigo Duterte. Siya rin ay alleged financier ng Pharmally, at kamakailan ay naiugnay ng isang Senate panel sa illegal POGOs.
Ngayon, ipinaaaresto siya ng House of Representatives dahil sa umano'y kinalaman niya sa iligal na droga.

In ancient Greece, women were forbidden to study medicine for several years until someone broke the law. Born in 300 BC, Agnodice cut her hair and entered Alexandria medical school dressed as a man. While walking the streets of Athens after completing her medical education, she heard the cries of a woman in labour. However, the woman did not want Agnodice to touch her although she was in severe pain, because she thought Agnodice was a man. Agnodice proved that she was a woman by removing her clothes without anyone seeing and helped the woman deliver her baby.
The story would soon spread among the women and all the women who were sick began to go to Agnodice. The male doctors grew envious and accused Agnodice, whom they thought was male, of seducing female patients. At her trial, Agnodice, stood before the court and proved that she was a woman but this time, she was sentenced to death for studying medicine and practicing medicine as a woman.
Women revolted at the sentence, especially the wives of the judges who had given the death penalty. Some said that if Agnodice was killed, they would go to their deaths with her. Unable to withstand the pressures of their wives and other women, the judges lifted Agnodice's sentence, and from then on, women were allowed to practice medicine, provided they only looked after women.
Thus, Agnodice made her mark in history as the first Greek female doctor, physician and gynecologist. This plaque depicting Agnodice at work was excavated at Ostia, Italy.
