POPE Francis washed and kissed the feet of 12 women inmates at a Rome prison during a Holy Thursday, March 28, 2024, ritual meant to emphasize his vocation of service and humility.The 87-year-old Francis performed the ritual from his wheelchair, after recent ailments have compounded his mobility problems. The Rebibbia prison venue was outfitted to accommodate his needs: The women sat on stools on a raised-up platform, enabling the pope to move down the line with ease from his wheelchair without having to strain himself.Many of the women wept as Francis washed their feet, gently pouring water over one bared foot and patting it dry with a small towel. He finished the gesture by kissing each foot, often looking up to the woman with a smile.The Holy Thursday foot-washing ceremony is a hallmark of every Holy Week and recalls the foot-washing Jesus performed on his 12 apostles at their last supper together before he was crucified.Francis revolutionized the ritual for the Vatican by insisting, from his very first Holy Thursday as pope in 2013, to include women and people of other faiths among the 12. Previously, popes performed the ritual on Catholic men only at a Rome basilica.Francis has traveled each year to a prison, refugee center or youth detention facility to emphasize his belief that a priest’s vocation is to serve especially those most on the margins. In his brief homily, delivered off-the-cuff, Francis explained the meaning of the gesture.“Jesus humiliates himself,” Francis said. “With this gesture, he makes us understand what he had said: ‘I am not here to be served, but to serve.’”“He teaches us the path of service,” Francis said.Francis appeared in good shape at the prison, even after presiding over a long Mass earlier in the day in St. Peter's Basilica. During the morning liturgy, he delivered a lengthy homily with a set of marching orders to Rome-based priests at the start of a busy few days leading to Easter.Francis has been hobbled by a long bout of respiratory problems this winter and in recent weeks has asked an aide to read aloud his remarks to spare him the strain. On Palm Sunday, he skipped his homily altogether.But Francis seemed energized by his visit to the Rebibbia prison, where he was given a basket of vegetables grown in the prison garden as well as two liturgical stoles embroidered by the inmates.Francis, for his part, regifted a framed image of the Madonna that he had been given, saying as soon as he received it he thought of the women at Rebibbia. He also gave a big chocolate Easter egg to the young son of one of the inmates.Even with Holy Thursday events wrapped up, Francis has a busy few days coming up that will test his stamina.On Friday, he is due to travel at night to the Colosseum for the Way of the Cross procession re-enacting Christ’s crucifixion. On Saturday, he presides over an evening Easter Vigil in St. Peter’s Basilica followed a few hours later by Easter Sunday Mass in the piazza and his big noontime Urbi et Orbi (to the city and the world) speech highlighting global conflicts and disasters afflicting humanity. (AP) What is the easiest way to win a football bet? Philippines THE Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) 7 is waiting for the results of the geodetic investigation to determine the status of the soil on portions of Segment 3 of the Metro Cebu Expressway (MCE) project.DPWH 7 Director Ernesto Gregorio Jr. said they were forced to halt construction when landslides occurred in Barangays Inayagan and Cantao-an in the City of Naga that are traversed by Segment 3A of the project last October.“We are already in the process of formulating permanent countermeasures through the utilization of a private geotechnical firm. There is this high-tech soil interpretation on the underlying soil strata,” Gregorio said during the 2024 First Quarter Meeting of the Infrastructure Development Committee (IDC) of the Regional Development Council 7 on Thursday, Feb. 15, 2024.The result of the soil investigation will be used to formulate permanent countermeasures that will address the risk of ground movement, he said.“Once you have enough data sa (on the) underlying soil strata, you will be able to analyze what caused this movement and such and what the probable solutions should be established,” he said.He said the agency is slated to receive the result of the soil investigation study next week.Gregorio said the affected road section has been closed for safety concerns.According to the DPWH website, Segment 3A, which has a length of 4.2 kilometers, is 90.03 percent finished.Residents in the vicinity of the landslide were already evacuated and relocated. They also received financial assistance from the City of Naga Government, he said.An alternative route or detour was recently opened and has been operational to allow residents from other areas not affected by the ground slip to access the expressway.The DPWH 7 official said they have undertaken “remedial measures” since the last quarter of 2023 to address the risk of ground slippage.This included the excavation of a massive deposit of soil in the area that poses a safety hazard, he said, adding that it was done slowly and meticulously for the safety of their workers.“It has been observed that the ground movement has slowed down. That is a positive development,” Gregorio said in a mix of Cebuano and English.Civil works on Segment 3A of the MCE started in Barangay Pangdan in the City of Naga in March 2019. It was slated to be finished before the end of then President Rodrigo Duterte’s term, only to be delayed by budget constraints. During Thursday’s meeting, IDC chairman Kenneth Cobunpue approved the endorsement of several DPWH 7’s Programs and Projects (PAPs) under the Regional Development Investment Program for funding in Fiscal Year 2025. Among the PAPs were the MCE (Segment 3A); New Mactan-Cebu 4th Bridge and Coastal Road Construction Project; the Panglao-Tagbilaran City Offshore Bridge Connector Project; and the Asset Preservation: Rehabilitation/ Reconstruction of Roads with Slips, Slope Collapse, and Landslide. The MCE spans 56.94 kilometers and consists of three segments. Segments 1, 2, and 3A are funded by the government, while Segment 3B is slated to be a public-private partnership.After completion, the project will act as a major north-south transportation route, connecting the City of Naga in the south to Danao City in the north, passing through the mountain ranges of Cebu.The project aims to significantly reduce traffic congestion in Metro Cebu by providing an uninterrupted traffic flow.

Got lots of Bonus in legit online Casino A LAWMAKER urged the Philippine National Police (PNP) to scrap its policy prohibiting policemen from having tattoos, saying it is “unconstitutional and baseless.”In a statement, Manila City Third District Representative Joel Chua expressed disappointment on the PNP’s supposed “negative mindset” about people with tattoos, as he maintained that having such has nothing to do with the performance of duty of any police or public servant.Central Visayas police to undergo tattoo ‘inventory’Chua noted that there is no provision in the Constitution, whether it be under the Code of Conduct and Ethical Standards for Public Officials and Employees, or Republic Act 6975 or thelaw for the establishment of the PNP, against the bearing and sporting of tattoos.“There is a saying in statutory legal construction that essentially means, ‘What is not included is excluded.’ This dictum applies especially so when there is a detailed enumeration of what is included. In the laws I have cited, tattoos or anything similar to tattoos are not included,” he said.“The PNP should discard that policy now before they get into legal trouble for the unconstitutionality of their policy. Tattoos are an art form of expression. The Constitution protects freedom of expression. By all indications, the PNP policy on tattoos is unconstitutional,” he added.Chua said the only possible reason to use tattoos as a basis to exclude or discriminate against anyone is if the tattoo means actual current membership and participation in any active criminal organization.He noted that the membership in the criminal organization must be proven first. “Tattoos are not probable cause for that -- not even membership in jail gangs because it is the criminal activity that must be proven to actually exist, not the mere presence of the tattoos,” said Chua.“Tattoos cannot even be used to discriminate against former convicts who have served their sentences in jail because our laws advance restorative justice and integration into society of ex-convicts. Tattoos should not be used as indirect indicators of possible criminal behavior,” he added.Chua also cited the danger posed by the removal of tattoos to one’s health, noting that cops may suffer from infection if the removal is not done by licensed healthcare practitioners with specific training and certification in tattoo removal.In response, PNP chief of the Public Information Office (PIO) Colonel Jean Fajardo acknowledged the concern of some personalities against the Memorandum Circular 2024-023, which was approved by the PNP leadership on March 19, 2024.Under the policy, both uniformed and non-uniformed or civilian police personnel are required to have their “visible” tattoos removed.They are also required to execute an affidavit declaring their tattoos that are not visible, noting that they are no longer allowed to have additional tattoos in any parts of their body whether visible or not while they are still in the service.Police applicants are also not allowed to have any tattoos at all.The policy, however, excludes aesthetic tattoos such as but not limited to eyebrows, eyeliner or lips.Fajardo maintained in an interview on Wednesday, April 24, 2024, that the policy is not intended to discriminate against those who have tattoos.“Naintindihan natin ‘yung mga saloobin ng iba but like we said earlier, ang ating chief PNP pursuant to his authority ay pupuwedeng magpasa ng circular with respect sa mga internal disciplinary mechanisms applicable only to PNP personnel. Sa katulad ng sabi natin kanina ay hindi tayo nagdidiscriminate doon sa mga may tattoo,” she said.(We understand the sentiments of others but like we said earlier, our chief PNP pursuant to his authority will be able to pass a circular with respect to the internal disciplinary mechanisms applicable only to PNP personnel. As we said earlier, we do not discriminate against those with tattoos.)“However, ang PNP ay naniniwala na itong policy na ito which by the way katulad ng ibang circular ay nagkaroon ng consultation bago ito naipasa bilang policy. So again like I said, there are certain norms and code of conduct na kailangan natin iimplement within the PNP so we could maintain ‘yung disiplina sa ating hanay,” she added.(However, the PNP believes that this policy which by the way like other circulars had a consultation before it was passed as a policy. So again like I said, there are certain norms and codes of conduct that we need to implement within the PNP so we could maintain discipline in our ranks.)She said the PNP Health Service will make a recommendation to address the health concerns related to the removal of the visible tattoos of the cops.

THE Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) 7 is waiting for the results of the geodetic investigation to determine the status of the soil on portions of Segment 3 of the Metro Cebu Expressway (MCE) project.DPWH 7 Director Ernesto Gregorio Jr. said they were forced to halt construction when landslides occurred in Barangays Inayagan and Cantao-an in the City of Naga that are traversed by Segment 3A of the project last October.“We are already in the process of formulating permanent countermeasures through the utilization of a private geotechnical firm.

In the laws I have cited, tattoos or anything similar to tattoos are not included,” he said.“The PNP should discard that policy now before they get into legal trouble for the unconstitutionality of their policy. Tattoos are an art form of expression. The Constitution protects freedom of expression. By all indications, the PNP policy on tattoos is unconstitutional,” he added.Chua said the only possible reason to use tattoos as a basis to exclude or discriminate against anyone is if the tattoo means actual current membership and participation in any active criminal organization.He noted that the membership in the criminal organization must be proven first. “Tattoos are not probable cause for that -- not even membership in jail gangs because it is the criminal activity that must be proven to actually exist, not the mere presence of the tattoos,” said Chua.“Tattoos cannot even be used to discriminate against former convicts who have served their sentences in jail because our laws advance restorative justice and integration into society of ex-convicts. Tattoos should not be used as indirect indicators of possible criminal behavior,” he added.Chua also cited the danger posed by the removal of tattoos to one’s health, noting that cops may suffer from infection if the removal is not done by licensed healthcare practitioners with specific training and certification in tattoo removal.In response, PNP chief of the Public Information Office (PIO) Colonel Jean Fajardo acknowledged the concern of some personalities against the Memorandum Circular 2024-023, which was approved by the PNP leadership on March 19, 2024.Under the policy, both uniformed and non-uniformed or civilian police personnel are required to have their “visible” tattoos removed.They are also required to execute an affidavit declaring their tattoos that are not visible, noting that they are no longer allowed to have additional tattoos in any parts of their body whether visible or not while they are still in the service.Police applicants are also not allowed to have any tattoos at all.The policy, however, excludes aesthetic tattoos such as but not limited to eyebrows, eyeliner or lips.Fajardo maintained in an interview on Wednesday, April 24, 2024, that the policy is not intended to discriminate against those who have tattoos.“Naintindihan natin ‘yung mga saloobin ng iba but like we said earlier, ang ating chief PNP pursuant to his authority ay pupuwedeng magpasa ng circular with respect sa mga internal disciplinary mechanisms applicable only to PNP personnel. Sa katulad ng sabi natin kanina ay hindi tayo nagdidiscriminate doon sa mga may tattoo,” she said.(We understand the sentiments of others but like we said earlier, our chief PNP pursuant to his authority will be able to pass a circular with respect to the internal disciplinary mechanisms applicable only to PNP personnel. As we said earlier, we do not discriminate against those with tattoos.)“However, ang PNP ay naniniwala na itong policy na ito which by the way katulad ng ibang circular ay nagkaroon ng consultation bago ito naipasa bilang policy. So again like I said, there are certain norms and code of conduct na kailangan natin iimplement within the PNP so we could maintain ‘yung disiplina sa ating hanay,” she added.(However, the PNP believes that this policy which by the way like other circulars had a consultation before it was passed as a policy. So again like I said, there are certain norms and codes of conduct that we need to implement within the PNP so we could maintain discipline in our ranks.)She said the PNP Health Service will make a recommendation to address the health concerns related to the removal of the visible tattoos of the cops.

THE Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) 7 is waiting for the results of the geodetic investigation to determine the status of the soil on portions of Segment 3 of the Metro Cebu Expressway (MCE) project.DPWH 7 Director Ernesto Gregorio Jr. said they were forced to halt construction when landslides occurred in Barangays Inayagan and Cantao-an in the City of Naga that are traversed by Segment 3A of the project last October.“We are already in the process of formulating permanent countermeasures through the utilization of a private geotechnical firm. There is this high-tech soil interpretation on the underlying soil strata,” Gregorio said during the 2024 First Quarter Meeting of the Infrastructure Development Committee (IDC) of the Regional Development Council 7 on Thursday, Feb. 15, 2024.The result of the soil investigation will be used to formulate permanent countermeasures that will address the risk of ground movement, he said.“Once you have enough data sa (on the) underlying soil strata, you will be able to analyze what caused this movement and such and what the probable solutions should be established,” he said.He said the agency is slated to receive the result of the soil investigation study next week.Gregorio said the affected road section has been closed for safety concerns.According to the DPWH website, Segment 3A, which has a length of 4.2 kilometers, is 90.03 percent finished.Residents in the vicinity of the landslide were already evacuated and relocated.

That is a positive development,” Gregorio said in a mix of Cebuano and English.Civil works on Segment 3A of the MCE started in Barangay Pangdan in the City of Naga in March 2019.
