[Title] => Senators pay last respects to Ople at emotional necrological rites
[Summary] => Senators paid their last respects yesterday to a dead colleague, former Senate president Blas Ople, recalling their fondest memories of him.
Speaking in necrological services for Ople at the Senate, former senator Ernesto Herrera said his late colleague would rather have his friends "remember him for his verbal fireworks, even for his once highly joyful and vocal drunkenness, not here, stuck in a box."
He said the former Senate head and labor and foreign affairs secretary was a "man with an enormous capacity for joy."

[Title] => Blas Ople, once more / Captured like a rat
[Summary] => It was Ruben Alabastro of Reuters who came closest to depicting Blas Ople. He described the departed foreign secretary as a "colorful journalist" who soared to the status of a spectacular "political chameleon". That indeed was Blas Ople but in bigger, bolder letters. I knew the man well. We grew up together as green-at-the-gills cub reporters before hitting the high road as serious commentators out to set the world of journalism afire. Great dreamers we were. And the world of knowledge was our oysters.

[Summary] => When a statesman goes, the nation feels the loss somewhere in its collective soul.
These days, the measure of that collective soul quivering would be the volume of text messages that goes around in the moments and hours after an event of great sadness. There was that volume of messaging last Sunday, a steady stream of terse notices as the nation informed itself of a death to be mourned.
Ka Blas, as he always preferred to be addressed, died in the manner, I suspect, he preferred: with his boots on, at the service of his nation, on the move and on the job.

[Title] => A fond farewell to Ka Blas, our kulog from Hagonoy
[Summary] => He died "in action", as we say of soldiers on the battlefield. Many people will say that our Foreign Affairs Secretary, Ka Blas F. Ople, died because he pushed himself beyond the limits of his physical endurance. If this is the case, then it was inevitable that Blas would succumb at a "young" 76, since in everything he did, from his earliest years he pushed himself beyond the limits: In hard drinking (which he perforce gave up in recent years), in chain-smoking, in ideology, and in unremitting effort.

[Summary] => Time was when the month of February was associated with two feasts of Candles — Candlemas and San Blas.

The parishioners take the blessed candles home and light them during thunderstorms, typhoons, floods, earthquakes, fires, childbirth or when a member of the household is sick. Candlemas is commemorated on Feb. 2.
