As dictated by the National Union of Journalists of the Philippines, there is a Code Of Ethics that every Journalist must follow. This is to ensure that journalists do not abuse the power they hold to influence people with their reports.
Here’s the Code of Ethics that must be followed:
• I shall scrupulously report and interpret the news, taking care not to suppress essential facts or to distort the truth by omission or improper emphasis. I recognize the duty to air the other side and the duty to correct substantive errors promptly.
Journalists must be accurate in what they report and must ensure that all the important information are included in the report. This is to make sure that the messages conveyed in their reports are factual, true and accurate.

After a long absence, I’m officially back in the Magic: the Gathering scene. I tested my mettle yesterday on the Standard Constructed tournament yesterday in Greenhills with my ValakutBurn deck. Here’s how it went:
Game 1 - Bo
ros Bushwhacker
This was my first standard tournament game after a 3 year hiatus. The excitement and anxiety was amplified by the fact that i knew my opponents deck was the bane of mine. True enough, our first game was really quick, as the Goblin Guides and Plated Geopedes proceeded to pound my slow, sorry *ass to kingdom come.

Hip hop beats, obscure 70’s trumpet music, old school fusion, sick breakbeat juggling, Siouxie and The Banshees, headache inducing drum and bass, and ABSURDITY. Typical Gaslamp Killer gig. Ive never seen him live but the videos online give you enough adrenaline to slap one of them lomo toting hipster kids sensless. Its a good thing I was watching these videos in the confines of my place.
Yes, The Mother F*$#ng Gaslamp Killer is coming to Manila. Brought to us by Red-i and 32Bar productions for the first anniversary of DUBPLATE. He will be joined by Salamangkero, Red-I, Mulan, Soulflower and Don-P. I would’t normally spend php300 to watch some do DJ his thing. But I’m actually looking forward to this.

In connection to the recent article about our family trip to Baguio, I decided to add these pictures which would now be all about flowers. In my (ehem) recent journey through adolescence, I have learned that flowers have this mysterious effect on females. Even if they are about to gun you down and chase you to hell because you forgot to text them last night because you were too drunk errr… in an emergency, all you’d need to do is to show up the next day with some of these buggers.
These flowers are not really the romantic type though because I just took pictures around the house that we rented. Luckily for me no ghosts showed up in the pictures but that topic might be a good theme for my next photo journey.

Luis “Louie” Beltran is one of the pinnacles of Filipino Broadcasting. He was one of the most harhitting journalists on print and on TV during his time. Not afraid of expressing himself even though faced with adversities, he was arrested and detained in Camp Crame because of his expose’s. He gained fame and notoriety when President Cory Aquino filed a libel case against him because he wrote in one of his articles that the late President “hid under her bed” during the coup d’ etat attempt in 1987. The late President even invited press into her bedroom to show that she can’t possibly hide under her “box” type bed.

Recently, I went to Baguio with my family. My elder sister brought her DSLR with us to capture the happy memories (cheesy!). When we got there, I got to try out the Macro Mode of her DSLR. At first I took pictures of the greenery around us but I found taking pictures of our small insect friends a lot more interesting. I’m sharing some of the more interesting shots that I took while testing Macro Mode out.
After taking a few shots, i finally made the lens focus on the fly clearly. I therefore conclude that what I’m doing is FUN!
This one I had to shoot rapidly because he was a really busy bee and didn’t want to stay put for a shot. Just like Jollibee in a kid’s party dancing “Nobody”.
