NOW THAT THE CASE OF CHIEF JUSTICE RENATO CORONA HAS BEEN DECIDED UPON BY THE SENATE SITTING AS THE IMPEACHMENT COURT AND THE CHIEF JUSTICE ACCEPTED THE GUILTY VERDICT OF 20 TO 3 IN FAVOR  OF HIS CONVICTION. HISTORY HAS BEEN MADE THAT NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW. THE CHIEF MAGISTRATE CANNOT EXEMPT HIMSELF FROM BEING TRIED BY THE VERY LAW HE INTERPRETS. THE CLERK OF COURT OF DAVAO CITY WHO WAS DISMISSED FROM SERVICE BECAUSE OF HER FAILURE TO DECLARE IN HER SALN THAT SHE RENTED A STALL IN DAVAO MARKET IS BEYOND COMPARE TO THE CASE OF THE CHIEF MAGISTRATE. WHO FAILED TO DECLARE HIS PESO AND DOLLAR ACCOUNTS IN HIS SALN. THE LAW MUST APPLY TO ALL AND NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW. NO AMOUNT OF EXPLANATION WILL BE SUFFICIENT ENOUGH TO COVER THE CHIEF MAGISTRATE FAILURE TO DECLARE IN HIS SALN HIS MULTIPLE PESO AND DOLLAR ACCOUNTS. I WISH THAT THE PROSECUTION PANEL ZERO IN THIS ISSUE TO AVOID TOUCHING OTHER PERSONAL MATTERS. ABOVE ALL IT IS AN EYE OPENER TO ALL PUBLIC OFFICIALS THAT MISD

BEFORE THE MOST AWAITED VERDICT SHALL BE PRONOUNCED PROBABLY ON MONDAY (MAY 28, 2012) BY THE SENATE SITTING AS AN IMPEACHMENT COURT TO CHIEF JUSTICE RENATO CORONA, IT IS MY HUMBLE OPINION THAT THE PEOPLE BEHIND THE IMPEACHMENT TRIAL DID A GREAT INJUSTICE TO THE CHIEF JUSTICE BY PRESENTING AN UNVERIFIED, FABRICATED AND PADDED EVIDENCES AGAINST THE CHIEF MAGISTRATE. IT IS ALSO MY HUMBLE OPINION THAT EVEN BEFORE THE START OF THE TRIAL THE PROSECUTION PANELS DID A BRILLIANT JOB BY PAINTING IN THE MINDS OF THE MASSES HOW CRUEL AND CORRUPT THE CHIEF MAGISTRATE WAS. FROM DAY ONE UP TO DAY 40's DIFFERENT SOLID BLOWS LANDED ALL OVER THE BODY OF THE CHIEF MAGISTRATE ALMOST KNOCKING HIM OUT. BUT THE CHIEF MAGISTRATE STOOD STILL AND GATHERED HIS LAST REMAINING STRENGTH TO PROVE TO HIS ACCUSER HOW WRONG THEY ARE AND REDEEMED HIMSELF BEFORE THE FILIPINO PEOPLE THAT HE WAS WRONGFULLY ACCUSED. FINALLY THE CHIEF MAGISTRATE ADMITTED OF HAVING A DOLLAR ACCOUNT IN THE AMOUNT OF $2.4 MI

ONE SUMMER AFTERNOON (APRIL 22, 2012) I DECIDED TO VISIT THE LA MESA DAM AND ECOPARK IN FAIRVIEW, QUEZON CITY AS I PROMISED MYSELF TO VISIT LASTTIME WHEN I FEATURED IN THIS BLOG THE SWAMP WERE TEENS USED AS AN ALTERNATIVE SWIMMING POOL TO REFRESH THEMSELVES FROM SCORCHING HEAT OF THE SUN. THE FAMILY ENJOY THE SHADES PROVIDED BY THIS TREE WHILE SOME CHILDREN RESTED ON ITS BRANCHES. ASIDE FROM SWIMMING, PICNIC AT THE PARK IS ONE OF THE FAVORITE PAST TIME OF EVERY FILIPINO FAMILY.

I LIVE IN QUEZON CITY FOR MORE THAN 30 YEARS NOW. I ALWAYS ON THE MOVE FROM ONE PLACE TO ANOTHER BUT WITHIN THE CITY'S MOST POPULATED DISTRICT, DISTRICT 2 WHERE A WELL KNOWN COUNCILORS IN THE NAMES OF MARIANO "MARCING" MEDALLA, RAMON "TOTO" MEDALLA, AND NOW JULIENNE ALYSON RAE V. MEDALLA CAME FROM. I WORKED WITH THE MEDALLA'S SINCE 2003 FIRST, AS SOLEMNIZING OFFICER IN THEIR  FREE MASS WEDDING PROGRAM WHERE AROUND 60,000 COUPLES WERE LEGALIZED UNDER THIS PROGRAM. NOW I STILL WORKED WITH THEM AS A TECHNICAL WRITER OF SORT AND ONE OF HIS LEGISLATIVE STAFF. IN MY THIRTY YEARS OF STAY IN QUEZON CITY, I ONLY VISITED THIS LOVELY PLACE TWICE. WHEN IT IS NOT YET DEVELOPED INTO PARK AND NOW AS AN ECO PARK WHERE RESIDENTS FROM NEARBY CITY'S HELD THEIR PICNICS AND FAMILY CELEBRATION DAY. IF YOU ARE A RESIDENT OF QUEZON CITY AND NOT YET VISITED THIS ENCHANTING ECO-PARK AS SAYING GOES "YOU MISS A FRACTION OF YOUR LIFE" SO I ENCOURAGE YOU TO

THE TEMPERATURE OUTSIDE SEEMS UNBEARABLE IT IS NO DOUBT THAT IT IS SUMMER TIME. MOST OF THE SWIMMING POOLS IN THE METROPOLIS WERE FILLED OF PEOPLE WANTED TO SELF BAPTIZED  AND SUBMERGED THEMSELVES TO WATER IN ORDER FOR THEM TO ESCAPE SCORCHING HEAT OF THE SUN RAYS. IN SEARCH OF A NEARBY SWIMMING POOL TO REFRESH MYSELF, I WENT TO LA MESA ECO PARK IN FAIRVIEW QUEZON CITY. BUT THE POOL CLOSES AT 4 PM. SO I DECIDED NOT TO COME BACK FOR THE FOLLOWING DAY. I WAS ABOUT TO LEAVE THE PLACE WHEN I DECIDED TO TAKE A WALK.  A LITTLE BIT FARTHER FROM THE PARK THERE WAS A GRASSY AREA, I HEARD A COMMOTION AND LAUGHING. MY CURIOSITY BROUGHT ME TO THIS PLACE WHERE CHILDREN ENJOY THE SPILL OVER WATER FROM THE LA MESA DAM. I REMEMBER MY YOUTHFUL DAYS WHEN MY FRIENDS AND I ENJOY THE FRESH WATER OF THE LAKE OF RIZAL. WE USED TO DIVE USING THE BRIDGE AS OUR DIVING BOARD. WE ARE NOT MINDING OF THE DANGER IT WILL BRING US. ALL WE KNOW IS THE THRILL AND THE ENJOYMENT IT GIVES US.
