In 2004 he found a way to put fish to sleep for cheaper long-distance haulage and still sell fresh from the sea. This time he developed a pill and a process to infuse shellfish with health nutrients and bring them live to supermarkets.

Alvarez is an excellent choice for that position. "I’m happy," he said, "that the President has given her full trust and confidence in me, especially that of a post closest to my heart." In our opinion, GMA could not have picked a better person for the post. Alvarez was one of the main authors of the Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Law, so what he will be doing in his new position is to implement the law he authored.

Its principal character was eminent lawyer Pacita de los Reyes-Phillips.

Under the auspices of the Swiss Embassy and the Goethe Institut, Durenmatt’s widow, Charlotte Kerr, will lecture on the famed author and read from The Assignment, one of his most famous valued works with much "unsurpassable" text.

Theater stalwarts galore were finding their way to their respective seats among the hundred-or-so tables. They would stop and point happily at, thence high-five, one another with the gleeful shock of recognition, verily like prodigal prodigies who hadn’t gotten together in a very looong time.

The published works – these were in English – hardly progressed beyond one-act plays usually written by authors with little or no actual involvement in theater.
