“Wah’ happened! Miriam Santiago goes ballistic
Private prosecutor Vitaliano Aguirre had had enough of Senator Miriam Defensor-Santiago and had the guts to stand up to her.
In a hearing marked by high drama, Aguirre covered his ears with his hands while the prosecution panel was receiving yet another a tongue-lashing from Santiago, this time for its sudden decision on Tuesday to rest its case against Chief Justice Renato Corona.
For that “contemptuous” behavior, Aguirre earned the ire of not just Santiago but the entire Senate impeachment court, which cited him in contempt on Day 26 of the impeachment trial, ironically a day after the prosecution had rested its case.

A Little Physics

As Dr. Sheldon Cooper (a character from the TV show “The Big Bang Theory”) puts it:
Physics encompasses the entire universe, from quantum particles to supernovas, from spinning electrons to spinning galaxies.
Everyday Physics
From the moment we wake up, we see the window glistened by the sunlight. As we wash our faces and brush our teeth, we see the tap water fall down to the drain. Our body reacts whenever the jeepney or taxi stops. And at night we see stars as they move in the sky, forming figures. Everyday, we deal with Physics.
