Why they don't like nursing homes

Some people thinks that nursing homes, with its professional care, is the best for our elderly. However, there are some truths behind this facade of professional care that are unknown to a lot of people. A few months ago, I posted a video of a medical professional manhandling an elderly patient. Today, we are being treated to news of teenaged lunatics working in nursing homes. Those kids spitted on the mouths of elderly patients, groped some of them and mocked them until the patients screamed.

The devil personified. That's what those kids are.

What have you been teaching our kids?

- “Defective textbooks are exactly like contaminated milk,” Go says, referring to the melamine-tainted imports from China which has killed at least four babies and caused kidney ailments in more than 50,000 children.

He says that while melamine-tainted dairy products caused physical damage, error-filled textbooks created mental and emotional damage.

“Unlearning is even a more difficult process than teaching,” Go says.

- "One result of Go’s advocacy is the issuance of DepEd Order No. 39, which directs private schools to immediately stop using “Simply Science in the Next Century” and “Harnessing Arts for English Today” by Phoenix.

But the error-riddled textbooks remain in use.

Also, due to Go’s exposé of its errors, “Asya: Noon, Ngayon at sa Hinaharap,” a social studies textbook, was recalled by then Education Secretary Florencio “Butch” Abad in 2004.

In June 2007, the DepEd issued a 21-page errata guide to correct the factual, grammatical and other errors in 11 newly released social studies textbooks and teacher’s manuals."


According to a Senate resolution, however, the guide “failed to substantially correct the errors found in the books.”

Today's schedule

After my dollar store shopping, I will probably be claiming my free acne treatment, courtesy of my spa membership. It allows me to get about 5 free facial treatment services every year. Having nobody to give it to and it is almost the end of the year, I might as well use the remaining certificates and avail of it myself. Going to the spa is kinda therapeutic for busy people like me. It makes me relax for abot an hour and feel the pampering of train hands. Work hard, play well!
