DAVAO City – The Depart-ment of Agriculture (DA) in Davao Region has allotted some P100 million to up-grade the packing facilities of small banana farmers in the region. The funds for project which could benefit at least 14 banana cooperatives will come from the President Social Fund (PSF), accord-ing to Melanie Provido, DA high-value crops regional coordinator. Some of the beneficiaries include Sarphil Employees Cooperative in Compostela Valley province, AMS Em-ployees Fresh Fruits Pro-ducers Cooperative and United Farmworkers Agrar-ian Reform Beneficiaries Multipurpose Cooperative in Davao del Norte, and Sibulan Growers Multipur-pose Cooperative in Davao City. The project will run for more than two years, which

will start from October this year until February 2014, Provido said. Davao Region is the highest banana producers in 2011 with 3,855 metric tons (MT) followed by Re-gion 10 with 1,726 MT, and Region 12 with 1,095 MT. To further strengthen the industry, DA Region XI and the Philippine Ex-porters Confederation, Inc (Philexport) in the region will initiate the 1st Mind-anao Banana Congress in November here. The assembly aims to gather banana stakeholders such as growers, farmers, cooperatives, suppliers of production inputs, trad-ers, logistics players and exporters and to tackle the current industry condition and concerns. It is also aiming to pro-vide the stakeholders with the needed information on how to access the govern-ment support initiatives to ensure the growth of the industry.

Gov’t allocates P100Mto upgrade Davao farmers’banana packing facilities

By Ben D. Arche DAVAO City – The Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) in Region XI revealed re-cently that their tax collec-tion reached P6.820 billion from January to September this year. With that amount, BIR assistant regional director Mamapok Diro said there is an increase of 15.18 percent from the P5.921 billion col-lected in the same period of last year. In the recent media fo-rum, Diro said they are optimistic to surpass the 2012 goal of P7.238 billion with three more months to go before the current year ends. Among the five Revenue District Offices (RDOs) in the region, Diro said the two RDOs in the city posted as having the highest revenues collected with a total of P4.647 billion. The city’s RDO is com-posed of two collecting offices which include West-Davao covering the areas of

Baguio, Calinan, Marilog, Toril, Talomo and Tugbok while the East-Davao covers the city’s Poblacion areas such as Agdao, Buhangin, Bunawan and Paquibato. Tagum City posted sec-ond highest revenue col-lection with P1.346 billion followed by Digos City with P534.671 million and Mati City with 290.530 million. The intensified cam-paign for taxpayers to pay their taxes religiously and promptly has attributed to the increase in collection for the first nine months of 2012, Diro said. Income tax remained the biggest source of collection with P3.968 billion and fol-lowed by value added tax with P1.490 as of August this year. Also, from January to September this year, Diro said that tax on documen-tary stamps, capital gains, sales of real properties net-ted some P371.398 million, up by 15.74 percent com-pared to P320.881 million in same period last year.

Ulysses P. Ortega, DPA (left photo) of LSD, DA-10 relates to the participants the local issues on waste management and offers a re-entry plan to address such concern during the three-day Waste Management and Biogas Technology Training where it aims to amplify technical staff and stakeholders’ awareness over the matter to stir suitable and efficient action on manag-ing waste among legislators.

Mitigate climate change thru waste management-DAMalaybalay City, Bukidnon – In support to DA’s climate change interventions, the Livestock Sector Division (LSD) of the Department of Agriculture-10 (DA-10) conducted a three-day Waste Management and Biogas Technology training recently. Some 36 agricultural extension workers (AEWs) from the Local Government Units (LGUs) from Region 10 attended the activity on September 12-14, 2012 at the Northern Mindanao Integrated Agricultural Research Center, this city. The said activity aims to increase AEWs and farmers’ awareness on proper waste management, specifically on agricultural wastes by ap-plying biogas technology to

mitigate the adverse effects brought by change climate. It also promotes the use of biogas digester, which mainly operates on the principle of anaerobic diges-tion that converts animal, human and agricultural waste into an economical and high quality fuel called biogas. Biogas can be used to run engine, in cooking, lighting and ironing clothes. Approximately, 5-6 m3 bio-gas is enough for one hour of ironing clothes which originally consumes around 1 kWh. On average, one cubic meter biogas contains 5,000 to 6,000 kcal of heat value which is equivalent to 0.6 liter kerosene or 1.5 kilogram charcoal or 3.5 kilograms firewood. Thus,

by using biogas, consump-tion of commercial energy is lessened while addressing environmental degradation as well. Aside from this benefit, residue from biogas pro-duction such as fermented organic materials called sludge is a good soil con-ditioner containing essen-tial nutrients like nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus. In addition, dried sludge can be used as animal feed providing 10% of swine and cattle feed requirement and 50% for ducks. Important local issues on waste management were discussed by Mr. Ortega of LSD, DA-10 in which he introduced a re-entry plan about the matter high-lighting the importance of

self-discipline in disposing waste materials. To strengthen this ad-vocacy, the DA ensues to establish a 30 m3 biogas digester at the Malaybalay Stock Farm to supply elec-tricity within the station. Likewise, the department is looking forward to create a waste management con-gress to intensify awareness among concerned individu-als the importance of prop-erly managing agricultural and household wastes. After the series of dis-cussions, the training con-cluded with a technology exposure to the actual and operational biogas digester designed by Mr. Fermelo Enaya and Mr. Napoleon Lancin located at Opol and El Salvador, Misamis Orien-tal respectively. # (Ruthceli O.

CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY- Some 697 students of the Mindanao University of Science and Technology (MUST) who will gradu-ate next year went through the Labor Education for Graduating Students (LEGS) Program of the DOLE Misa-mis Oriental West in a Job Search Management Forum last 24-26 September 2012 in

2013 MUST graduates avail LEGS ProgramMUST Audio Visual Room, Cagayan de Oro City. The university forum was revived as part of its commitment to equip stu-dents with skills to face in the world of work. The students were from the college of Engineering and Architecture, Industrial and Information Technol-ogy, Arts and Sciences, Pol-icy Studies, Education and Management, and Institute of Continuing Education and Trainings. DOLE-10 Misamis Ori-ental West Resource Speaker Ms. Bernadette Y. Hallazgo said the LEGS Program aims to promote harmony in the workplace. The future workers are prepared for the dynamics in the workplace, and as partners of industry, had a look into work ethics, and a culture of productive and decent work. The DOLE Office envi-sions less work disputes in the region because of informed workforce as well

as the management. The training also delved on labor relations, to ad-dress the dealings between management and workers about employment condi-tions, the maintenance of workplace agreements, as well as collective bargain-ing, among others. Discussion also centered on the benefits of workers under Labor Standards, which included recent di-rectives on leave benefits for women with gynaeco-logical condition, victims of violence, and the Solo Parent Act. Two sessions accom-

modated scores of partici-pants in the morning and afternoon. Topics in the forum include Job Interview by MBC Anchorman Julius Bana and Power Dressing by Ms. Hazel Geneia H. Almirante, Smart Telecom-munications Supervisor. The Student Affairs and Welfare Office collaborated with the Guidance Service Unit of MUST for the 3 day forum to help future pro-fessionals understand their roles and responsibilities in applying for work, the industry they worked for, and the profession they would acquire.

BAROBO, Surigao del Sur––A barangay captain of a fishing village in this com-mercially progressive town was shot dead about noon Wednesday.

Motorcycle-riding gunmen shot dead village chief in Surigao SurThe victim Reneboy

Lacerna, village chief of Barangay Sua was about to sail with his motorized boat when two unidentified suspects pumped bullets in

various parts of his body. The two suspects then

boarded a black Honda XRM motorcycle and speed towards Tagbina, Surigao del Sur after the shooting.

Another single motorcy-cle, a white Honda XRM believed used by backup suspects, also left the crime scene.

Police recovered seven

empty cartridges of caliber .45 pistol from the crime scene.

The victim was brought to a hospital in Prosperidad town of Agusan del Sur but

was doctors pronounced him dead on arrival.

Barobo police inves-tigators are now trying to establish motive of the killing.

THE House of Representatives had ap-proved on final reading a bill instituting a compulsory insurance for election of-ficials and workers during national and local elections.

The compulsory insurance will be for members of the Board of Election In-spectors (BEI), Special Board of Election Inspectors (SBEI), the Board of Election Tellers (BET) and their support staff for every national and local election.

Authors of House Bill 8528 said the compulsory insurance was one of the way the government could concretely express its recognition of the crucial role of the members of the BEI, SBEI, the BET and their support staff and the dangers that attend every election.

The bill mandates that the death benefits shall include the awarding of P200,000 to the beneficiaries on the first year of implementation of the proposed law.

The insurance coverage shall also include hospitalization and medical expenses of the injured beneficiary until his/her re-covery notwithstanding benefits provided for by the Government Service Insurance System (GSIS) or any institution granting the same to the insured.

The bill provides that the insurance coverage shall commence from the time the insured is exposed to any election-related risk.

The coverage starts from, but not limited to, the acquisition of election paraphernalia and it shall be terminated upon proper turn-over of the same to the appropriate receiving officer or until any election-related risk is no longer present, the bill states.

The measure also provides that the Commission on Elections (Comelec) shall pay the corresponding premium to be determined by the GSIS.

SATURDAY-SUNDAY | OCTOBER 13-14, 2012

THINK a minute.You know that many

arguments between hus-bands and wives are not over important things? Couples often “sweat the small stuff.”

Sometimes the smallest mistake sets off our temper and we fire off angry, hurt-ful words to blame our wife or husband for the silliest thing.

Maybe your husband forgot to pick the kids up early from school, or he didn’t hear something you said.

Your wife made you a little late to work, or she ironed the wrong shirt. Lit-tle mistakes and oversights suddenly set off World War III in our home and ruin the whole day, not to mention our poor kids who have to listen to our childish fight-

Think A Minute

Jhan Tiafau HurstJhan Tiafau Hurst

Don’t sweat the small stuff

ing all the time.But if we don’t change

this bad habit of fighting with our wife or husband over every little mistake, we’ll enjoy being with each other less and less. And eventually, we could end up resenting each other so much that we prefer to be with almost anyone else besides our own wife or husband.

It’s easy for us to laugh at how silly and ridiculous other couples sound when

they fight over small things, but we ourselves need to learn to laugh at our own silly fights. Then forget it and let it go!

It’s not worth the stress, even pain, that we cause each other.

We all enjoy being with someone who’s patient and doesn’t get angry easily.

We don’t like to be with people who are hard to please and stress us out.

So if we want others to love and accept us with

our mistakes, then we also need to be that kind of person with our own wife or husband.

Just imagine how much more you’ll enjoy your mar-riage if you decide today that being happy is far more important than be-ing stubborn and always wanting things your way.

So why not ask Jesus Christ to forgive you for your bad habit and attitude of arguing with your wife or husband over small, unimportant things?

Just ask Jesus to take charge of your heart and marriage.

He’s the only One Who can help you stop “sweating the small stuff,” so you can start changing and enjoy-ing life with your mate by focusing on the big stuff.

Just Think a Minute.

As I continue on this journey of living for Jesus, these things sometimes change along the way, at least for sometimes.

My struggle with this has been that it seemed this instruction of Paul’s took people’s focus off of Jesus and on to Paul. That he was saying, don’t imitate Je-sus and look to Him as your example, but look to me, Paul, instead.

This is just not true. What I have come to under-stand is that Paul was all about leading people into a relationship with God through Jesus.

He was also about Christ followers being good examples to others. In short, Paul led people to Christ by example.

I realize I had the wrong picture of this verse in my head. I had an image of Paul walking down a path and others following behind him in a single file line formation. That Paul looked to Christ and followed Him as others fell in and followed Paul. That is not Paul’s intention at all.

The mind picture I now have, is Paul walking side by side, hand in hand with others down this path. En-couraging each other in the right way to go.

Helping each other figure out just what it means to be a Christ follower. And being willing to let anyone join in the journey and follow Christ with them. All the while, each individual keeps their eyes on Jesus as the model of what their life is supposed to be like.

So I should say Paul was encouraging us as Christ followers to be good examples so that if someone needs a hand in figuring out how to follow Christ, we can come alongside them in their journey and help them along the way. We don’t have people walk behind us, but walk beside us.

To each his ownLIFE’S INSPIRATIONS: “… my people are destroyed from lack of knowledge. `Because you have rejected knowledge, I also reject you as my priests; because you have ignored the law of your God, I also will ignore your children…” (Hosea 4:6, the Holy Bible).

-ooo-“TO EACH HIS OWN”

RULE DESCENDS TO MAN: Two news items that came out on radio and on Facebook on Thursday, October 11, 2012, proved that the world has come to the age of “to each his own”---no one is minded anymore to help a fellow in clear need. This is really sad because they showed how far man has wandered away from the spiritual injunction that he should love his fellowmen as he loves himself. OWN | page 11

The first item was aired by a mid-morning pro-gram at ABS CBN DZMM, where, in an interview with a lady broadcaster, a woman narrated that at the time she was being attacked physically and beaten black and blue by a man, no one among those who were around and were actually watching what was happening to her dared to help her or stop her attacker.

The second item---a cellphone video clip---was shown in a Facebook post.

The scene showed an old man biting the blooded face and arms of another man, apparently over a dispute as to who would occupy a seat inside a running sub-way train. The video showed people standing nearby, but, for one reason or another, nobody intervened, and just let the incident happen right before their very eyes.

-ooo-HELPING OTHERS

MEANS OBEYING GOD: The Biblical admonition to help others is found first in

Matthew 22. In its verses 34 to 40, Matthew 22 says: “Hearing that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees, the Pharisees got together. One of them, an expert in the law, tested him with this question: `Teacher, which is the greatest command-ment in the Law?’

“Jesus replied: `Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments’...”

Second, this admoni-tion is also found in Mat-thew 25:41, where Jesus Christ, our God and Savior, clarified that for those who fed the hungry, gave water

THE Filipino people won its first battle against the impending imposition of e-martial law when the Su-preme Court issued a TRO against the implementation of the Cybercrime Preven-tion Act of 2012.

Now the Aquino govern-ment is confused as to what to do. Senate president Juan Ponce Enrile is passing the buck to the Supreme Court.

He said any amendment to the controversial law should wait for the decision of the Supreme Court, which will hold its oral arguments on the 15 petitions on Janu-ary 15, 2013.

A gmanews.tv report

Let us persist till we deal a death blow to the Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012

Imitating Christ

quoted him as saying, “So we have enacted it into a law, let us not blame each other, lahat tayo nagkulang. Let the SC now make a decision.”

Malacañang, on the other hand, is urging lawmakers to pass amendments to the cybercrime law before the Supreme Court holds its hearings on the petitions.

The bill’s principal au-thor Senator Edgardo An-gara, on the other hand, is confident that one of the most controversial provi-sions in the law––online libel––will be retained.

What do we make of this?I say let us push for the

scrapping of the law alto-gether. There is no sense in amending a law that serves to curtail our freedom of

expression. Let us not let a law that restricts a medium that provides an opportu-nity for citizens to express their opinion on matters that affect them – from the laws, policies, and actions of the government and that of other countries, as well as international multilateral agencies, to culture and the arts – without fear of censor-ship. Let us not let a medium where the truth could be propagated, where the lives, issues, and struggles of the oppressed and exploited could be written about – without the impediments being imposed on corporate media – be impaired. We should not allow a law that, instead of empowering the Filipino people, provides

those in government, as well as local and foreign big businesses such as mining and pesticide companies, with another weapon to harass those who expose their destructive and cor-rupt ways and to silence any opposition to their rule.

In the first place, if the real intent of the Aquino government in passing the cybercrime law is to curb child pornography, shut down cybersex dens, and put a stop to the violence being committed against women through the posting of com-promising videos on the internet, it should have just amended Republic Act No. 9262 or the Anti-Violence against Women and

CAGAYAN de Oro City––The public has been hearing and reading about the trap that puts a stop to disease-bearing mosquitoes and had been wondering where it is available. The search ends now as the Department of Science and Technology (DOST-10) has announced that the Ovicidal-Larvicidal (OL) Trap is now available in the market.

The OL trap kit can be bought for only P100 in all branches of Mercury Drugstore, said DOST-10 Information Officer Tere-sita Superioridad-Baluyos during the “Ang Rehiyon Karon” radio program of the Regional Development Council (RDC-10), through its Communication and

DOST: Mosquito OL traps now commercially available

By APIPA P. BAGUMBARAN of Philippine Information Agency

Advocacy Task Force (CAP-TF), hosted by the Philip-pine Information Agency (PIA) and aired over DXIM Radyo Ng Bayan.

The OL trap is part of the government’s strategies in addressing the incidence of dengue disease in the

country. The simpl looking-kit

contains a black container, pellet packs or larvicide solution to kill mosquito larvae that will hatch in the strip of wood and in the solution, and a small strip of lawanit measuring

1” X 6.5” (like an ice drop stick) for mosquitoes to lay their eggs on, Baluyos said.

The pellets, made of organic materials, should be dissolved in water and placed in the black container with the lawanit stick soaked on the pellet-water solution.

She said the OL trap works by attracting female mosquitoes to lay eggs on the lawanit stick.

The solution kills the eggs and larvae, thus, elimi-nating the next generation of dengue-carrying mos-quitoes.

To be effective, the con-tainer and stick should be cleaned and the pellet solu-tion be replaced every week, she added. (APB-PIA10/jdelpf)

OZAMIZ City––An Automatic Weather Station (AWS) has been installed in Barangay Kinuman Norte, some 15 kilometers from the center of this city.

This, as the Ozamiz City Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (OCDRRMC) entered into an agreement with the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysi-cal and Astronomical Services Administration of the Department of Science and Technology (Pagasa-DOST) for its installation.

“The city needs a more accurate weather forecasting to help in the detection and prevention of would-be hazards, like flooding and landslide brought about by the current weather phenomenon,” said Mayor Nova Princess E. Parojinog-Echavez, OCDRRMC Chair.

With this, the Pagasa-DOST could now intensify its forecasting network, especially that the facility is situ-ated in a strategic location, which is the foot of the Mt. Malindang Ranges Natural Park, she said.

The Mayor said the AWS equipment can be used to provide reliable data and information on extreme weather and climate occurrences by measuring wind velocity, air temperature, air pressure, relative humidity and rainfall or precipitation.

Both the Pagasa-DOST and Ozamiz City Government have pledged to extend full cooperation for the effective and efficient operation of the equipment.

Pursuant to the MOA, Pagasa-DOST shall identify the location/site where one AWS will be installed and provide technical orientation and facilitate the training of caretakers who will operate and maintain it to be as-signed by the City of Ozamiz.

On the other hand, the City of Ozamiz shall pro-vide a space for the AWS for as long as it is needed in the operation and in the pursuance of public service, provided, that it shall retain the ownership of the land where the AWS will be constructed, regardless of the length of time it will operate.

Should DOST-Pagasa cease to operate it, the posses-sion and administration of the said land shall automati-cally revert to the lot owner without any obligation to DOST-Pagasa.

The city government will also facilitate and coordi-nate the use of proposed site for the AWS, which needs to measure 12 m by 12 m and its fencing, as prescribed by Pagasa.

Moreover, the city government is tasked to promote the need for an environmental monitoring system in the community, especially for early warning system application; ensure that the equipment is protected and free from obstructions; and perform basic preventive maintenance of the AWS.

Ozamiz City should also report to Pagasa through the CDRRM Office, any damage(s) or losses that may arise to the equipment. (RCA/PIA10-Misamis Occidental/jdelpf)

Automatic weather station built in Misoc

AN AUTOMATIC WEATH-ER STATION (AWS) is an automated version of the traditional weather station, either to save human labour or to enable measurements from remote areas.

An AWS will typically consist of a weather-proof enclosure containing the data logger, rechargeable battery, telemetry (optional) and the meteorological sen-sors with an attached solar panel or wind turbine and mounted upon a mast.

The specific configura-tion may vary due to the purpose of the system.

The system may report in near real time via the Argos System and the Global Tele-communications System, or save the data for later recovery.

What is an automatic

weather stationIn the past, automatic

weather stations were often placed where electricity and communication lines were available.

Nowadays, the solar panel, wind turbine and mobile phone technology have made it possible to have wireless stations that are not connected to the electrical grid or telecom-munications network.

MALAYBALAY City––Around 10,000 households in Bukidnon’s second district received 10,000 compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) under the National Residential Lighting Pro-gram (NRLP) of the Department of Energy (DOE).

Roberto Flores who represented Rep. Florencio T. Flores Jr in the dis-tribution, said the DOE has allotted 10,000 CFLs for the second district’s target beneficiaries.

“Although the 10,000 CFLs were not enough for 50,000 qualified ben-eficiaries, still, these were smoothly handed to the folks through raffles during barangay assemblies,” he said.

He added that their satellite offices coordinated with the local govern-ment units and barangay officials to identify those who are qualified to receive one CFL per household.

With proper utilization, the Philips 14 watts fluorescents have a 10,000-hour lamp life and are designed to reduce household’s electric bill

-ooo-OBEYING GOD LEADS

TO PROSPERITY AND SUCCESS: Why are many, many people averse to help-ing their fellowmen during these days? Well, many will say that oftentimes, those who try to help others are the ones who get maimed or prejudiced or, in some cases, who get killed. The perception is that, nothing good comes out of helping others.

But this is a kind of thinking which betrays lack of knowledge and understanding of God’s faithfulness to those who obey His commands. This is a kind of thinking that does not know that when we obey God’s commands, He will be there for us and not only help us, but will see us through every problem that will come our way because we obeyed His admonition that we should love others as we love ourselves.

We must therefore strive to do what God wants us to do, and we can jumpstart this by reading the Bible everyday, meditating on it day and night, and obeying all that He commands us to do. Then, we will become prosperous and successful.

Cybercrime...from page 4

Children Law and Re-public Act No. 9208 or the Anti-Trafficking in Persons Law. If this does not suffice, it should have passed a law specifically to address this issue.

The US passed cyber-crime laws that cover fraud – because identity fraud is a common crime there – child pornography, and copyright infringement (for very obvious reasons.)

But the Aquino govern-ment passed an all-encom-passing law that curtails

the freedom of expression by giving it the power to monitor traffic data, restrict access to websites, and pro-vides it with another weapon to silence critics: cyber-libel. It even increased the penal-ties by one degree higher.

One could not help but think that the real intent in passing the controversial law is similar to the basis why China is blocking ac-cess to Facebook. It is also not a coincidence that a study by the Dubai School of Government revealed that social media such as Facebook and Twitter was effectively used by activists during the Arab Spring uprisings to organize and spread awareness about protests.

The reason behind the passing of the Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012 is suspect and its basic frame-work fundamentally flawed.

The law that we need is one that guarantees and ex-pands access to the internet not one that curtails it. Let us not stop until this op-pressive law is repealed and we have effectively put an end to the threat of “cyber-authoritarianism.” (http://bulatlat.com)

mentation, enclosure and location can lead to a jump in, for example, the measured temperature or precipitation values, which can lead to er-roneous estimates of climate trends.

This change, and related non-climatic changes, have to be removed by homog-enization.

EnclosuresEnclosures used with

automatic weather stations are typically weather proof fiberglass, ABS or stainless steel, with ABS being the cheapest, stainless steel the most durable and fiberglass being a compromise.

Power supplyThe main power source for

an automatic weather station is usually one or more solar panels connected in parallel with a regulator and one or more rechargeable batteries.

As a rule of thumb, solar output is at its optimum for only 5 hours each day. As such, mounting angle and position are vital.

In the Northern Hemi-sphere the solar panel would be mounted facing south and vice versa for the Southern Hemisphere.

The output from the solar panels may be supplemented by a wind turbine to provide power during periods of poor sunlight, or by direct con-nection to the local electri-cal grid.

MastThe standard mast heights

used with automatic weather stations are 2, 3, 10 and 30 meters.

Other sizes are available, but typically these sizes have been used as standards for differing applications.

• The 2 meter (6.6 feet) mast is used for the mea-surement of parameters that affect a human subject. The mast height is referenced to head height.

• The 3 meter (9.8 feet) mast is used for the measure-ment of parameters that affect crops (such as wheat, sugar cane etc.) The mast height is referenced to crop top.

• The 10 meter (32.8 feet) mast is used for the measure-ment of parameters without interference from objects such as trees, buildings or other obstructions. Typically the most important weather parameter measured at this height is wind speed and direction.

The 30 meter (98.4 feet) mast is used for the measure-ment of parameters over stratified distances for the purposes of data modelling.

A common application is to take measurements of wind, humidity and temperature at 30, 10, and 2 meters.

Other sensors are mount-ed around the 2 meter or lower height. (From Wiki-pedia, the free encyclopedia)

SEN. Meriam Santiago has filed a resolution requiring all schools and universities to create a policy body that would address bullying in their respective institutions.

Senate Resolution No. 879 requires schools to create a policy to address existence of bullying in their respective institutions; such a policy should implement a pro-cess for addressing incidents of bullying in school and provide remedies that will allow parents or guardians of students to file written reports of suspected bully-ing,” she said.

Santiago said school administrators should be mandated to act immediately even on anonymous reports of bullying to ascertain the truth of such reports and take steps to stop such acts.

”The welfare of the victim, as well as the bully, should be of paramount consideration; thus, proceedings concern-ing the victim and the bully should be treated with con-fidentiality,” Santiago said.

The lady lawmaker said the Department of Education (DepEd) and the Commis-sion on Higher Education (CHED) should be enjoined to be more proactive in as-
