The series of bombings that rocked Mindanao early this week confirms there is in fact continuing imminent danger from terrorists.

A day after the blast in Makilala, a bomb exploded in Cotabato City while at least six people were injured at an earlier explosion in Sultan Kudarat.

That’s the latest word from the State Department, which notes that smiles tend to "distort" people’s natural facial expressions. (As if passport photo technology doesn’t distort people’s faces into unrecognizable shapes all by itself.)


Under new guidelines begun since the US implemented machine-readable passports last year, "The subject’s expression should be neutral (non-smiling) with both eyes open, and mouth closed."

Guingona claimed the RP-US Non-Surrender Agreement, which he branded as "unequal and unfair", may have "dubious constitutionality" since it was "directly linked to the grant of US military assistance to the Philippines."

Guingona claimed the RP-US Non-Surrender Agreement, which he branded as "unequal and unfair", may have "dubious constitutionality" since it was "directly linked to the grant of US military assistance to the Philippines."
