Nakuha ang resulta sa pag-bawas ng bilang ng may ma-samang pananaw sa isang sukat-an sa bilang ng may positibongpagtingin sa naturang sukatan.

40,000 inalissa voter’s listng MaguindanaoCOTABATO CITY—May40,000 botante angtinanggal sa talaan ngmga boboto sa Maguin-danao, sinabi ng mgaopisyal kahapon.

Ani Estelita Orbase,isang supervisor ngCommission on Elec-t ions (Comelec) saMaguindanao, hindimakaboboto sa Mayo10 ang mga tinanggal.

“Only the Comeleccentral office can re-solve the problem ofvoters whose nameshave been removedfrom the new Comeleclist of registered vot-ers,” ani Orbase.

Aniya, 34,142 bo-tante ang inalis dahilhindi nakaboto noong2004 at 2007 at walanang bawian ang pag-tanggal sa kanila.

May 14,152 iba pana tinanggal sa pagka-bigong i-validate angkanilang talaan, aniOrbase. CC Señase

Sa tingin ng HSBC: Mas lalakas angPiso, palitan magiging 43.50 sa $1NAKIKITA ng HSBC, ang higan-teng bangkong Briton, na lalakasang piso laban sa dolyar sa bu-ong 2011 dahil sa maraminghadlang sa pagbangon ng eko-nomiya ng US na inaasahangmagpapahina sa greenback la-ban sa mga pera sa Asya.

Sinabi ni Wick Veloso, trea-surer ng HSBC at nangangasiwasa capital markets, na nakikitanila ang piso na papalo sa 43.50kada dolyar sa pagtatapos ngtaon at aakyat pa sa 42.50 bagomatapos ang 2011.

“There will also be a honey-m o o n p e r i o d . I n c a s e o f achange in administration, it will

also contribute to the peso’s ap-preciation,” ani Veloso.

Nagsara kahapon nang masmataas ang piso sa halagang45.55 mula sa 45.59 noongMartes, dahil na rin sa malakasna pasok ng dolyar mula sa mgaOFW.

Aniya, ang pananaw ng HS-BC na dahan-dahang lalakas angpiso ay bunga ng inaasahangmabagal na pagkilos ng dolyarat hindi dahil sa pagpasok sabansa ng bagong puhunan, par-tikular sa stock market.

“There’s still a lot of liquiditybut it won’t be the main driver,”ani Veloso. Doris C. Dumlao

BALIGTARAN SA CEBU

Iniwan si Gibo para kay Villarna nagtatag sa One Cebu, parasa pambato ng Lakas-Kampi-CMD na si Gilbert Teodoro.

Ngunit minaliit ng Lakas-Kampi-CMD ang naiulat na pag-baligtad ng One Cebu para kayVillar. “Our point person is GwenGarcia. She’s 1,000 percent be-hind Gibo (Teodoro)” ani FrancisManglapus, kalihim ng partido.

Ngunit isang source mula saOne Cebu ang nagsabing li-mang kongresista na ang puma-nig kay Villar. Isang kinatawanpa ang “still waiting in thewings,” dagdag ng source.

HABANG nakatalikod ang Malacañang, tahimik nanakuha ni Nacionalista Party (NP) presidential candi-date Sen. Manuel Villar ang suporta ng pinakamala-king partidong pampulitika at pinakamakapangyari-hang angkan sa Cebu, ayon sa ilang source.

Tinagpo ni Villar ang mgakongresista at lokal na opisyal saCebu mula sa One Cebu at pa-milya Garcia sa Marco Polo Hotelsa Cebu City noong Miyerkules.

Hinayag ni Alvin Garcia, nanagnanais muling maluklok bi-lang alkalde ng lungsod, ang

alyansa ng partido niyang KugiUswag Sugbo (Pag-unlad sa Ce-bu) o Kusug at ng NP sa isangpress conference sa naturanghotel din.

Taliwas ito sa naunang pagbi-gay ng suporta ng pinsan niyangsi Cebu Gov. Gwendolyn Garcia,

PCIJ ginawaran ng press freedom awardDUMAMI ang kaaway ng isangmaliit na pangkat ng matatapangna mamamahayag sa loob ng 20taon ng malayang pag-uulat la-ban sa katiwalian at kawalan ngpagsunod sa batas sa Pilipinas.

Ngunit umani rin ng maram-ing parangal ang Philippine Cen-ter For Investigative Journalism(PCIJ), tulad ng ikalawa nitongKate Webb award na iginagawad

ng Agence France-Presse bilangpaggunita sa mala-alamat nabuhay at karera ng mamama-hayag na pumanaw noong 2007.

Nanindigan ang PCIJ sa gitnang pagtatangka ng ilang maka-pangyarihang tao na bilhin, ta-kutin o patayin ang mga mama-mahayag.

“The first line of defense is toact independently,” ani PCIJ ex-

ecutive director Malou Manga-has.

At kahit pa mayroon langitong 10 full-time na editorialstaff, naitindig ng PCIJ ang sarilinito bilang isang walang takotna bantay sa lipunan habangginagabayan ng motto o panun-tunan na: “We tell it like it is. Nomatter who. No matter what.”

‘Bagets’-looking Agaa ‘lolo’ in 2 months

“I was so excited to sing withArnel for the first time,” she ex-plained, “so I moved too much.Good thing I wore a cover-upover my bathing suit, so walangindecent exposure (laughs).”

Did she and Arnel get to talkabout their common experienceof singing the National Anthemat Pacquiao’s match? “Nope butwe got to bond,” she said. “Hesang for me and my friendswhile the sun was setting. Ek-sakto his song was about sun-sets.”

The sun is now shiningbrightly on Karylle as she

counts her birthday blessings.After all the storms, K has be-come Miss Bliss.

Lolo AgaSpeaking of Aga, his first

grandson is due barely twomonths from now. Igi Boy andhis wife Patricia will name theirfirstborn Alejandro Miguel.That’s in keeping with theMuhlach tradition of havingnames that begin with theletter “A.” Ever bagets-look-ing Aga will never look likea lolo at all.

Flaunting itDerek Ramsey is handling

the controversy hounding himand Angelica Panganibanproperly. It goes to show howwell-bred he is.

The issue erupted when theirprivate pic taken on an islandlanded on the front page of atabloid. Instead of evading theissue, flaring up or denying it,Derek owned up to it, sayingthere’s nothing wrong about go-ing away on a trip together,since he and Angelica are in arelationship.

But he said that shot was notmeant for public consumption.Ahh! To be proudly in love. Ifyou feel it, flaunt it!

BondingRuffa Gutierrez and

her adorable kids, Lorinand Venice, enjoyedSunday bonding with

Aga and Charlene Muhlachand their cute twins, Andresand Atasha, at the Muhlachs’Batangas resthouse.

I teased Ruffa. “What if An-dres courts one of your daugh-ters so they will continue yourthwarted romance with Aga?”The hot mama replied, laugh-ing: “The twins are 8. Lorin is 6and Venice is 5. They still havea long way to go. They becamehonorary cousins over theweekend. For now yun na langmuna at playmates sila.”

The prospective childhoodsweethearts are bound to beshow biz’s future darlings.

Proud daughterLotlot de Leon is ecstatic

that her mom, Nora Aunor, hasbeen named Best Asian Actressof the Decade by the GreenGlobe International FilmAwards.

“Sobrang proud daughterako na my mom’s talent is rec-ognized, not just locally, but al-so abroad. Ka-level na niya angHollywood greats. Filipino pride’yan! Even my daughter naGrade 2, pinagmamalaki niya saclassmates niya kasi Mom is intheir Filipino textbook.”

Lot would rather not com-ment about reports that LaAunor was a no-show in herCanada concert because shewasn’t feeling well. Hopefully,the prestigious award willserve as an adrenaline shot forthe Superstar to get her act to-gether.

After her cosmetic surgery inJapan, Ate Guy’s new “face”should usher in a new phase inher career, and a new attitude.

By Dolly Anne Carvajal

B IRTHDAY girl Karylle almost had a “wardrobemalfunction” during her duet with Arnel Pine-da at the ASAP summer special in Boracay.

Justin arrivestoday for gigAS early as November lastyear there was talk that localconcert promoters were bring-ing in pop superstar JustinTimberlake. But it remainedjust a rumor, until Francis Lu-men’s All Youth Channels (for-mer franchisee of MTV Philip-pines) announced a show thatwill feature not just Timber-lake, but also Timbaland andJojo on March 27 at the SMMall of Asia grounds.

It’s actually Timbaland, therapper and sought-after recordproducer, who’s headlining theshow. But even as Timberlakeand Jojo (a teenage singerwhom Timbaland has recruit-ed in his latest album) arebilled as guests, Lumen saysthey will play a major part inthe show.

In fact, the gig, dubbedChanging Lives, is a specialone-off event, a fundraiser forthe PLDT-Smart Foundationwhich is channeling the gig’sproceeds to help young vic-tims of the Ondoy-Pepengstorms, including students ofthe Angono School of the Artswhose musical instrumentswere damaged by the floods.

Timberlake, who’s flying infrom Los Angeles today withgirlfriend Jessica Biel, will bemeeting the Angono musicstudents after his arrival.
