Calle Balic Balic

Ang Calle Balic Balic sa Maynila ay isang kalyeng ginawa noong 1890 papunta sa sementeryo. Ang mga ninunong Pilipino noon ay mapagmahal sa pamilya at napakasakit ang mamatayan ng mahal sa buhay. Ang Sementeryo ay ginawa ng mga taga San Miguel Maynila noong panahon ng Kastila. 

May tradisyon noon na ang kabaong ay binubuhat ng apat na tao. Lumalakad sila ng 20 steps at umaatras ng 10 steps papunta sa sementeryo. May sumisigaw ng sulong para sumulong ng 20 hakbang ang nagbubuhat ng kabaong at sisigaw uli ng Balic Balic para umatras ng 10 hakbang pabalik

Noong 1925 ay sinarado ng mga Amerikano ang sementeryo sa Balic Balic at ang mga bangkay na nakalibing ay nilipat sa North at sa Paco Cemetary.  Ang sementeryo ng Balic Balic  ay ang Holy Trinity Church ngayon. 

Ang Calle Balic Balic ay G. Tuazon St. na ngayon sa Maynila.

DALAMPASIGAN SA PANUBIGAN

Tula ni Jeremiah Chavez Eufemio DALAMPASIGAN SA PANUBIGAN Sa lagaslas ng dalampasigan  Doon ko natagpuan ang kapayapaan Hatid ng hampas ng mga alon At banayad na init ng dapit hapon. Sa mga puting buhangin ng Panubigan Doon ko natagpuan ang karangalan Sa matapat na araw ng pangingisda Nang dumaong ang kanilang bangka sa dalampasigan Salat man sa karangyaan ng modernong pamumuhay Sagana naman sa kasiyahan at kapayapaan Kay gandang pagmasdan, kay sarap balikan Ang dalampasigan sa Panubigan.

UNSWERVING SERVICE TO HUMANITY

15 August 2024 THANK YOU FOR THE LEARNING, LESSONS & MEMORIES By Duoi Ampilan  Since 01 August 2024, I officially ended my deployment in Ukraine. Though short (4 months), my deployment was among the toughest, most challenging and most difficult. The last 45 days were among the things I would never wish for. Ukraine was my 14th country of deployment and the 24th country I traveled to.  After all the twists, turns, trials, tensions and torments, I am feeling tired.  Being a Humanitarian Worker is said to be among the Most Dangerous Jobs because of the associated risks and uncertainties aside from the daily stress & tensions. Where there are calamities and crises from disease outbreaks to earthquakes, displacements to war and devastation, humanitarian workers are there. We offer our services, our time, talents and for some our lives!  We also have the fair share of the things that make us love our work - the opportunities of reaching many places of historical im...

Kennedy Jr. details how the NSA was in charge of Operation Warspeed's COVID-19 mRNA vaccines, the history of the United States bioweapons program, and why Anthony Fauci is the highest-paid government official in history: "The weird thing about the pandemic was this constant involvement by the CIA, the intelligence agencies, and the military. When Operation Warp Speed made its presentation to the FDA committee called VRBPAC. When Warp Speed turned over the organizational charts that were classified at the time, it ...
