1. Kellerman defends Pacquiao, blames NSAC
We carefully watched the fight 3 times ... there's no way Mayweather had won the fight, In my view, Pacquiao won the bout and the fight. The problem with the judges and the boxing analysts is that they have high expectations of Pacquiao ... who almost always knocks down his opponents. Boxing is fighting with aggression; without it there's no fight.
2. Chinese businessman treats 6,400 employees to French vacation
It's hard to call it a vacation if you have to spend it with 6,400 of your co-workers.
3. PNoy: Big Canadian firm to set up blueberry, cranberry farms in Philippines
Its Ocean Spray. That's the company involved in blueberries and cranberries. The company makes good juices from both fruits. Good job, Pnoy. Pagpumasok sa atin yan, malaking benefits sa Pilipinas.

"war COULD BE inevitable"
Are you serious? If war should break out between the two countries, it'll be over in a few hours, with the Philippines being part of China.
If you are counting on the US or any other countries' assistance, dream on. The US and its allies will only bully non-nuke capable nations. They are not stupid enough to involve themselves in a losing battle with China. If WW3 starts, no one wins.
5. Pacquiao insists he won fight vs Mayweather
All that hit to the head must be affecting his reasoning. Three judges gave a unanimous decision in favor of Floyd. Compubox also counted Floyd landing 67 more punches than Manny. With such a lopsided figures, what the HeII is Manny talking about? He lost and so did millions of people who bet on him. He deserved to get sued for not revealing his shoulder injury. After all, who wants to bet on a lame horse?
Empty words from the AFP Chief of Staff. I'm surprised to read in this article that we don't even have an air field, lalo na a military base there!
If on a worse case scenario that the Chinese invade Pag-Asa island one morning, what does our AFP do?
7. Son of Valenzuela factory owner killed in blaze
Cris David BamBamBaby • an hour ago
The owner is still liable and accountable for his negligence and offenses eventhough his/her son was also lost in the fire. The loss of a loved one does not absolve or erase a person's guilt or accountability.
8. Pag-IBIG head felt insulted, disrespected in Senate probe
investigations are preceded with evidence, the mutineer only relies on culpability. this is all politics, and does not really benefit the people. he should be given a walis and a dustpan to get the peoples tax money worth of what we pay him to do. he and his president will only investigate their opponents, never their barkadas. o kaya imbestigahan na lang niya, kung bakit ang isang latang sardinas, sin laki lang daliri ang laman, tapos puro sabaw na!, niloloko ninyo ang pilipino.
9. First school offering Filipino course in US opens in San Diego
wow, and here we are with DEPED and CHED wanting to remove college Filipino courses
10. Grace Poe kayang ituloy ang 'Tuwid na Daan' – PNoy
Nanahimik sa Binay corruption scandal, pero kayang ipagpatuloy ang laban kontra korapsyon? Sa Mamasapano lang nag-ingay, pero sa ibang katiwalian, wala akong narinig kay Poe. Kaduda-duda si Poe. Baka gamitin lang ng mga mapagsamantala yan si Poe.
