145th Birth Anniversary of our National Hero Dr. Jose P. Rizal
BORN on June 19, 1861, in then rustic Calamba, Laguna, Dr. Jose P. Rizal lived a most fruitful life.

Journey of discovery in Cavite
WE have mixed feelings about Secretary Pat Sto. Tomas’ leaving the Cabinet effective July 3. On one hand, we are happy that she would have her wish to have a change of pace and to have more time with her family. But we are also sad to see one of the best Cabinet members leave the official family.

AN amusing "theory" of notso-long-ago was that Dr. Jose Rizal was the father of Adolf Hitler – based on the Max Viola’ s diary that the national hero had an "adventure" with an Austrian "seductress," by which the latter meant " a dove that flies low in the evening." Then there was his aborted fatherhood when he supposedly pushed pregnant Josephine Bracken down the stairs. (I’m not sure if Rizal expert, Ambeth Ocampo, can confirm this.)
