Ang Diyaryong Pinagkakatiwalaan
DINAPUAN ng COVID-19 si Tokyo Olympic gold-medalist weightlifter Hidilyn Diaz.
Sa kanyang Instagram account, ay nagpost ito ng larawan ng kaniyang COVID-19 test result.
Pinayuhan nito ang mga fans na sumunod sa ipinapatupad na health protocols.
Nakatanggap na rin ito ng COVID-19 booster shots noong Enero 4 sa Quezon City at nanawagan din sa iba na magpa-COVID-19 booster shots na rin.
SA latest IG post ni Kris Aquino, ipinakita niya ang kanyang hitsura na papayat nang papayat habang nakikipaglaban sa kanyang sakit.
Makikita na tinutukan siya ng gamot at nilalagyan ng IV, na kahit mararamadam mo ang sakit, nakukuha pa rin niyang ngumiti at magpasalamant sa nurse.
Kasama rin ang post ang mga pinangakong tulong sa mga nangangailangan at ang bouquet ng pink of roses na pinadala sa kanya.
Panimula ng long post ni Kris, “Inamin ko na malayo sa okay ang kalusugan ko… pero ginagawa pa rin namin ang lahat ng kakayanin sa ngayon, para makatulong sa kapwa.
“Simple ang dahilan ko, hindi nyo kami iniwan nung kami ang nangangailangan… i am just reciprocating in the way i am at present able to, the LOVE, SUPPORT, KINDNESS, COMPASSION, and LOYALTY many Filipinos have given me and my family, especially now that many need assistance. Lahat ng napangakuan, ginagawan ng paraan na matupad bago mag January 25, birthday in heaven ng mom ko.”
Pagpapatuloy niya, “Isang request lang po, please don’t scold my nurse for not wearing gloves during our IV insertion- ako po ang nag request na tanggalin na nya kasi naubusan na ko ng veins for the IV line, fragile & weak kasi ang mga ugat ko. Whether doctor or nurse, inaabot minsan ng 8 attempts to get the line successfully in.
“Mahaba pa ang laban ko to strengthen my body & heal my broken heart… BUT from childhood i already knew, for me weakness could never be an option… especially NOW because i have kuya josh & bimb who still need me to love, care, and provide for them. Para sa dalawang pinakamamahal ko, hindi ako susuko.”
Dagdag pa ni Kris, “P.S. to protect the privacy of the very thoughtful friends who sent me flowers, balloons, fruits, home cooked food, Rosaries, prayer books, ice cream, and so much more i am refraining from any gratitude posts. “To all, please know how much your thoughtfulness & gestures of caring especially your messages and hand written cards have uplifted me. At least now i know sino ang totoong nagmamahal at maaasahan, at sino ang makasarili at fake lang pala. (Hindi po yung ex fiancé ang pinatatamaan, kung sya pinangalanan ko na lang.)”
Post pa ni Kris para sa lahat nag-comment sa kanyang post na patuloy siyang ipinagdarasal para gumaling, “Thank you for your continued kindness.”
Narito ang ilan sa magagandang komento ng netizens, na labis na nag-aalala sa kanyang health:
“Kris stay away from negativity nalang please. Iwasan mo na magparinig sa dulo. Ok na sana yung message eh. I really hope you’ll get better soon. Be strong for your kids.”
“True feeling ko nakaka trigger din sa sakit nya ang stress dahil nga immunocompromised sya sana less negativity nalang din talaga. Parang napaka workaholic and driven nya kasing tao nung nawala sya sa ABS parang doon nag start lahat. Di ko sure observation ko lang naman.”
“Generous naman talaga si kris eversince. Sana lang talaga she will take a good long rest para sa health nya. She needs to take a break from social media. Your health should be the most important priority…”
“Nakaka alarm yun weight loss ni Krissy.”
“Sana tumaba na siya at lumakas. Pray pray pray tayo sa kanya.”
“Kada makikita ko si Tetay papayat siya nang papayat.”
“Sobrang payat na ni Ms. Kris. Sana gumaling na sya sa mga sakit nya.”
“Sobrang payat niya… pero ang ganda niya pala pag sobrang payat parang mga Hong Kong actresses.”
“Grabe ang pinayat ni Ms. Kris. She should also not rely only on artificial treatments but also try healing naturally(herbal/etc.) Praying for her recovery.”
“Panalangin ko Kris sana bumuti na ang kalusugan mo. Nagulat ako weight loss nya, bilang tao syempre hindi ko maiwasan hindi mahabag.”
“Love you, Krissy.”
Dalangin namin na sana’y malampasan ni Kris ang kanyang pinagdaraan, para matagal pa niyang makasama sina Joshua at Bimby at marami pa siyang matulungan.

WITH the character of Peter Parker in his last year of high school and the eyes of the world on him, it was clear that Spider-Man: No Way Home (now playing in Philippine cinemas) would be the final chapter in Peter Parker’s coming of age story.
[Watch the film’s latest trailer at https://youtu.be/bSo7ypG9IVQ]
“This film is about him becoming the Spider-Man,” says Tom Holland, who reprises his role as Peter Parker. “It’s about him growing up, stepping up to the plate, and making his own decisions as a full-blown Avenger.”
No Way Home is indeed the culmination of the Homecoming trilogy… and the start of a multiverse of possibilities. In the first film, Homecoming, Peter gains a mentor in Tony Stark. Peter desperately wants to join the Avengers, but Tony Stark advises him to focus on being a friendly neighborhood Spider-Man. In the second film, Far From Home, having lost his mentor and taken that to heart, he discovers that being Spider-Man means when duty comes calling, he must answer. At the end of that film, Peter is ready to be his own man and the hero that everyone wants him to be – when suddenly, his identity is revealed and he is framed for the crime of murdering Quentin Beck (a/k/a Mysterio).
With Mysterio having revealed Spider-Man’s secret identity, and a less-hirsute J. Jonah Jameson having broadcast that identity to the world, Peter finds himself at the center of extreme controversy. “His world is turned upside down,” says Chris McKenna, one of the movie’s credited writers. “He had his ‘I am Iron Man’ moment, but he didn’t get to make it. It was forced on him from the grave by Beck. He’s hounded by J. Jonah Jameson and framed as a murderer. So at a moment when everything should be going great – he’s about to be a senior in high school, he has a girlfriend, he’s found a harmony between being Spider-Man and being Peter Parker – the whole thing is upended.”
“Spider-Man’s biggest superpower is Peter Parker, and that’s because of his humility,” says Holland. “When that is at stake, his friends are at stake, his aunt is at stake, their lives have been ruined because of him, he knows he has to do something. What I love – and this is a constant reminder of how young Peter is – is the naivete of him going to Doctor Strange and saying, ‘Can you just make everyone forget who I am, is that something you can do?’ And that’s something only a kid would do.”
“If you think about what Peter’s been through, Strange is closely tied to a very substantial moment in his life,” says director Jon Watts. “In Endgame, Strange’s plan to stop Thanos leads to Peter losing Tony, his mentor, right in front of his eyes. I imagine Strange would feel some responsibility for that, so it’s understandable that if Peter came to Strange and asked for his help, Strange would oblige, even if it meant bending the rules a bit.”
That’s true even though Strange and Peter haven’t been super close in the past, according to Benedict Cumberbatch. “This chapter of their story brings them far closer to knowing and understanding each other,” he says “because despite the intensity of their experience together so far, they don’t actually know each other very well. Until this point, Strange has just seen a kid with extraordinary powers caught up in a problem far larger than either one of them.”
Strange’s spell opens the multiverse so that anyone in any universe who knew Peter Parker was Spider-Man could come into his world. It turns out, that’s a lot of people… Since the first Spider-Man movie in 2002, there have been a rogue’s gallery of villains that have discovered who is behind the Spidey mask: the Green Goblin, Doc Ock, Sandman, Lizard, Electro – all have threatened other Peter Parkers from time to time. When Strange’s spell collapses the boundaries between these universes, all of them are brought together to face this Peter Parker.

MAGSASAGAWA ng sariling imbestigasyon ang Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) hinggil sa di umano’y hacking incident sa Commission on Elections’ (Comelec) data.
Sa katunayan, ipinag-utos ni Acting Secretary Emmanuel Rey Caintic sa Cybersecurity Bureau ng departamento na magsagawa ng sarili nitong imbestigasyon ukol sa napaulat na hacking sa data ng komisyon.
Ang kautusan ay base sa inilathalang ulat ng Manila Bulletin noong Enero 10, 2022 na nagpapahiwatig na ang hackers di umano ay mayroong access sa servers ng Comelec at di umano’y ninakaw ang mga mahahalagang files kabilang na ang usernames at personal identification numbers ng vote-counting machines (VCMs), ayon sa DICT.
Matatandaang, iniulat ng Manila Bulletin Tech News team na mayroong 60 gigabytes ng data ang illegal na kinuha mula sa servers,
“While the report has been denied by the Comelec through spokesperson James Jimenez, it is in the interest of the citizenry and of the country to feel secure in the electoral process. This is why I have tasked the DICT’s Cybersecurity Bureau to immediately and independently investigate these allegations,” ayon kay Caintic.
“If indeed information has been stolen, there is still time to make the necessary changes and precautions to ensure a fair, honest, and efficient election,” dagdag na pahayag nito.
Sinabi naman ng Comelec na kasalukuyan nilang bina-validate ang di umano’y hacking sa poll data at kinuwestiyon kung may bahid ng katotohanan ang ulat lalo pa’t wala namang maaaring i-hack na data dahil hindi pa naman available ang data.
Para naman kay DICT Cybersecurity Bureau Director Jose Carlos Reyes, nakikipag-ugnayan na ang kanyang team sa Comelec.
“The National Computer Emergency Response Team of the Cybersecurity Bureau has been coordinating and assisting the Comelec Information Technology Department Director Jeannie V. Flororita on this matter,” ayon kay Reyes.
Samantala, kasalukuyan na ring iniimbestigahan ng National Privacy Commission (NPC) ang napaulat na data hacking incident , sabay sabing kailangan din na magsagawa ng imbestigasyon ang Comelec sa nasabing insidente at mangyaring magsumite ng resulta ng kanilang imbestigasyon sa NPC sa Enero 21.
Ipinalabas ng NPC ang kautusan nito para sa pagdalo na rin ng mga kinauukulang partido gaya ng Comelec, Manila Bulletin, at Art Samaniego Jr., Technology editor at IT head ng Manila Bulletin —sa isang clarificatory meeting noong Enero 25, 2022.
“The upcoming elections have highlighted the need to tighten measures in protecting the information gathered from our stakeholders and preventing its use outside the intended purpose. Rest assured, the DICT Cybersecurity Bureau will support the Comelec to ensure that the integrity of the elections is not compromised by any attempt of data breach,” ayon kay DICT Assistant Secretary for Cybersecurity Atty. Kristoffer Tiansay. (Daris Jose)
NAPAKALAKING sakit din daw sa ulo ng NBA organization ngayon ang nasa mahigit 500 mga staff na isinailalim sa quarantine bunsod ng COVID pandemic.
Ang naturang bilang ay mula sa mahigit 2,500 na mga staff.
Kasama sa mga staff na inilagay sa safety at health protocols ay mga equipment managers, video coordinators, security staffers, player development staff, analytics at maraming iba pa.
Sinasabing ang mga ito ay mahirap daw palitan.
Hindi raw katulad sa mga players na pwedeng palitan sa pamamagitan ng pagkuha ng reinforcements mula sa G-League.
Sa ngayon mahigit na rin sa 300 mga players ang isinailalim din ng liga sa quarantine.
NAKATAKDANG ipatupad ng Department of Transportation (DOTr) ang implementasyon ng ‘no vaccination, no ride’ policy para sa lahat ng mga pampublikong transportasyon sa buong Metro Manila habang nasa ilalim ito ng Alert Level 3.
Ayon sa inilabas na department order ng kagawaran, ang lahat ng mga kinauukulang ahensya at sectoral offices ng DOTr ay inaatasan na tiyakin na tanging mga fully vaccinated na mga indibidwal lamang na may maipapakitang physical o digital copies ng kanilang vaccination card, o kahit na anong IATF-prescribed document, na may valid government issued ID na may larawan at address ang papayagang makasakay o mabigyan ng ticket sa mga pampublikong sasakyan.
Nilinaw naman sa Section 3 ng nasabing department order na hindi kabilang ang mga indibidwal na hindi pa nababakunahan dahil sa kanilang mga commorbidities.
Kinakailangan lamang na makapagpakita ang mga ito ng duly-signed medical certificate na may pangalan at contact details ng kanilang physician.
Hindi rin kabilang sa naturang alituntunin ang mga indibidwal na bibili ng mga essential goods at services, tulad na lamang ng tubig, pagkain, gamot, medical devices, public utilities, energy, trabaho, at medical at dental necessities. (Daris Jose)
KAYA naman daw walang masyadong mabalitaan na lovelife si Miss Universe 2013 3rd runner-up na si Ariella Arida ay dahil masyado na raw itong maingat at baka muli siyang madulas.
Inamin ng beauty queen-actress na ilang beses na raw siyang nabigo sa pag-ibig. Hinalintulad niya ang kanyang lovelife sa isang makintab na sahig. Kapag sobrang kintab daw ng sahig, puwede kang madulas na hindi mo inaasahan.
Pero tuwing babagsak daw si Ariella sa kanyang lovelife, hindi raw siya nagpapatalo at agad siyang bumabangon.
“Yung unang dulas talaga ‘yon yung magandang paraan. In love ka kasi, eh. Minsan yung ibang dulas natutuluyan na… talagang higa na. Kailangang bumangon,” diin pa niya.
Huling napanood si Ariella sa GMA Afternoon Prime teleserye na Stories From The Heart: The End of Us kunsaan napuri ang pagganap niya bilang other woman.

DAHIL sa pagtaas ng COVID-19 cases, ililipat ng date ang musical show ni Julie Anne San Joe na Limitless Musical Trilogy: Part 3 Rise.
Dapat ay sa February 19 and 20 ang pagpalabas nito at nilipat na ng April 9 and 10. Ang mga nakabili ng tickets for February ay tatanggapin sa April.
Mas importante raw na ang priority ay ang kaligtasan ng maraming taong nagtatrabaho sa naturang project.

WALANG makakapigil sa Academy Awards na tuloy ang pamimigay ng parangal sa March 27 sa Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, California.
Last year, ginanap ang Oscars sa historic Union Station train station in downtown Los Angeles at small crowd of nominees at guests ang pinayagang um-attend.
Ang Walt Disney Co. and ABC network ang siyang may hawak ng live airing ng Oscar Awards. At ayon sa ABC Entertainment President Craig Erwich, may napili na silang maghu-host ng awards night.
Tatlong taon kasing walang napiling host ang Oscars at naging dahilan iyon ng pagbagsak sa ratings noong 2019, 2020 at 2021.
Maraming netizen ang nagsa-suggest na kuning host for this year’s Oscars ay ang box-office star na sina Tom Holland at Zendaya dahil sa huge success sa global box-office ng Spider-Man: No Way Home.
Nang makarating kay Holland ‘yung request ng netizens, sagot niya ay: “I would love to host the awards. If they ask me to, I would, and it would be very fun.”
Mga huling nag-host ng Academy Awards ay mga comedians na sina Jimmy Kimmel, Chris Rock at Ellen DeGeneres.
Nominations for the Oscars will be announced on February 8.

Hinimok ni ACT Teachers party-list Rep. France Castro ang Department of Education (DepEd) na tiyaking laging naka-monitor sa kalusugan ng mga guro.
Ayon kay Castro, base sa survey na isinagawa ng Alliance of Concerned Teachers -NCR, lumalabas na 55.3 percent ng mga teacher-respondents ang mayroong flu-like symptoms.
Nakakaalarma aniya ang dami na ito kaya nais rin niyang malaman kung ano ang mga ibinibigay na suporta o ginagawang hakbang ng DepEd para matulungan ang mga empleyado nilang nagkakasakit.
Kasabay nito ay nakikiisa si Castro sa panawagan para sa dalawang-linggong health break para sa mga guro upang sa gayon ay makapag-focus din sila sa kanilang mga sarili at pamilya sa harap nang panibagong pagsirit ng COVID-19 infections kamakailan.
Samantala, base sa kanilang survey, sinabi rin ng kongresista na 84.7 percent ng mga teachers-respondents ang nagtatrabaho pa rin sa kabila nang nararanasang flu-like symptoms.
Lumabas din sa survey na 76.2 percent ng mga teachers-respondents ang nagsabi na wala silang natanggap na anumang tulong sa kabila nang kanilang sitwasyon.
UMANI ng negatibong komento sa social media ang lumutang na Isko-Sara tandem sa 2022 election.
Pakiramdam ng kanyang mga taga-suporta “pinagtaksilan” umano sila ni Manila Mayor Isko Moreno dahil tila tinalikuran umano nito ang kanyang running-mate na si Doc Willie Ong.
“Si Yorme nanonolongges na. Hindi na alam kung saan kukuha ng boto,” ayon kay @MarkusMyBoy sa Facebook.
Giit ng netizen na si @Jimmy Condicion: “Kawawa naman ‘yung VP nya. Nakakahiya naman! Mga ipinapakita niyo lalo siyang hindi mananalo. Makakuha lang ng boto, ganyan ang gagawin ni Isko.”
Ang pinalutang na Isko-Sara tandem na utak umano ng campaign strategist ni Isko ay hindi rin nagustuhan ng ilang political leader sa Mindanao kasabay ang paalaala sa milyong supporters ni vice presidential aspirant Davao Mayor Sara Duterte na maging maingat at mapanuri sa gimik ng kampo ni Moreno.
“This is really an annoyingly fantastic idea. I don’t know where they got the audacity to assume that Inday Sara, who has already committed as BBM’s running-mate, will be entertaining this wild fantasy. Well, they can dream on, this is a free country anyway. But this is out of bounds and unacceptable. No one is buying this idea,” ayon sa isang kilalang pulitiko sa Davao region at miyembro ng Hugpong ng Pagbabago (HNP) na kilala ring malapit sa mga Duterte.
Nitong Setyembre, binanatan ni Isko si Presidente Rodrigo Duterte dahil umano sa kapalpakan nito sa pagresponde sa pandemya.
Pero matapos pormal na umatras sa laban sa pagka-pangulo si PDP-Laban standard-bearer Sen. Bong Go, tila nagbago ng tono si Moreno at inalok ang sarili na i-endorso ng Pangulo.
BIG surprise pala kay Geneva Cruz nang i-offer sa kanya ng GMA Network ang bago nilang Afternoon Prime na Little Princess na ginagampanan ni Kapuso actress Jo Berry.
“Nagulat ako kasi nga matagal na akong hindi umaarte. Dahil I chose to focus on singing in concerts and live shows,” sabi ni Geneva.
“Pero ngayong panahon ng pandemic, walang mga shows, at sabi ng mga pinsan kong sina Sheryl Cruz at Sunshine Cruz, i-try ko muling umarte kaya tinanggap ko ang offer. Si Sheryl kasi nasa ‘Prima Donnas, Book Two’ at si Sunshine nasa ‘Mano Po Legacy: The Family Fortune.’
“It turned out to be a big challenge to me, dahil ang character ko, si Odessa ay isang kontrabida, aapi-apihin ko si Jo Berry as Princess. Kaya I have to study my role, she’s so different from me, comedian kasi ako off-camera.
“Kaya kung minsan, after a scene, tinatanong ko mga kasama ko sa eksena kung tama ba ang ginawa ko, may kulang ba? But later on, I enjoyed na doing my character.
“I enjoyed our lock-in taping kasi masaya, we are like brothers and sisters and I will always treasure it.”
Napapanood na ang Little Princess ng 3:20 PM, after Las Hermanas na finale na today. Kaya starting Monday, January 17, mapapanood na ito after ng Prima Donnas.

LONGEST lock-in taping ang magbabalik na GMA Afternoon Prime series na Prima Donnas, starting on Monday after Eat Bulaga.
Napagkasunduan kasi ng buong cast at production staff na ituluy-tuloy ang taping, para hindi na sila lalabas at pagbalik ay magpa-swab test na naman. Umabot ng 82 taping days ang serye na dinirek pa rin ni Ms. Gina Alajar, kasama si actor-comedian Philip Lazaro.
Nagpaalam daw si Chanda Romero sa husband niya at nang pumayag na magkakalayo sila ng ganoong katagal ay hindi na siya nag-worry. Si Wendell Ramos ay wala sa tabi ng wife niya nang magsilang ng bagong baby nila,
Nagkasakit si Katrina Halili, naospital muna siya then pagbalik sa set, inalagaan siya ng mga kasama niya, thankful siya kay Chanda who cares for her, like a mother to her.
Nagkaroon din daw noong una, na parang hindi sila tatagal na hindi lumabas sa bubbles nila, pero nakaisip si Direk Gina na magkaroon sila ng Bible Study, at bago sila mag-roll everyday, nagpi-praise and worship sila at sabi nga ni Wendell, “we’re so blessed we have Direk Gina who believes in the power of prayer.”

HUMANGA ang netizens na sumusubaybay gabi-gabi sa Mano Po Legacy: Family Fortune na nakikipagtagisan ng acting si Kapuso Primetime Princess Barbie Forteza, sa mga veteran actresses na sina Ms. Boots Anson Roa-Rodrigo, Sunshine Cruz at Ms. Maricel Laxa.
Sayang nga raw lamang na sana isa sa leading men ni Barbie ay si Jak Roberto, dahil last pa raw nagtambal ang real-life sweethearts ay sa Kara Mia pa noong 2019.
No problem naman daw kina Barbie at Jak, dahil kahit hindi sila magkatambal, ay lagi naman silang may separate project. Basta tuluy-tuloy lamang ang pag-uusap nila, ang communications nila.
“Secure kami ni Jak sa isa’t–isa at personally, comfortable kami sa aming mga family, both with our parents and even our relatives,” sagot ni Barbie sa isang interview.
“We handle our relationship na very mature. Practical at very chill.”
Napapanood gabi-gabi si Barbie sa serye after ng I Can See You: AlterNate sa GMA Telebabad.
