D' Journ

                      Remember the days, when we literally rushed every morning going to school? Yup! Those were the days when we students needed to be in school on time. To be in the classroom before our teachers arrive. Every free time was never enough for our “girls talk”’ while the boys were in their favorite corner too. Sometimes together we share crazy-nonsense talks and giggles. Oh! That always made our day. The days when those having “secret crushes” would always find time to have a look at someone's classroom. The hi and hellos, the smiles, the unnecessary rants in the hallway, or in the playground. I am sure you and I are missing it all now. Each month was loaded with different academic and non-academic activities. Science Club activities, Buwan ng Wika, Christmas Parties, Student Council Elections, High School Nights, graduations and most of all the Prom Night are among the school activities that we wish to attend again s...

Boundaries of being a Parent What a parent shouldn't do nor say to their child. In broad daylight, a child was breathing in life. Pureness shining within the eyes that formed crescents as it smiled upon seeing them. The child had the world in those little hands that couldn’t even spread wide just yet. By the very moment that child had inhaled, they took responsibility for everything the child needed from the first steps to the last. It was their duty to embrace the child with love; hold the child with sincerity; treat the child with utmost care and gentleness deserved. However, as the child took those first steps until she could walk on her own — that was when everything started to change for her. When she could fully comprehend everything now, she could finally understand what life has to offer to every breathing child that did no harm. Some of them, the pillar, would take advantage of titles that they deemed to be grasped tightly — not even realizing that they were starting to s...

  Living Robots, Innovation or Revolution? A xenobot, derived from the skin cells of frog embryos.    Kamakailan lamang, ang mga computer scientist at biologo ng Allen Discovery Center sa Tufts University ng Medford, Massachusetts ay natuklasan ang “first living robot” sa daigdig. Ang nag-iisang organismong ito ay mula sa buhay na selula at isang “controllable machine” na posibleng solusyon sa napakaraming pangkapaligiran at kalusugang suliranin. Naisagawa ang pag-aaral sa pamamagitan ng Artificial Intelligence (A.I.) computer program “evolutionary algorithm” na naglalayong humalata ng mga kapaki-pakinabang na gamit nito.          "These are novel living machines," sabi ni Joshua Bongard, isang computer scientist at robotics expert ng University of Vermont (2020). Ginawan ng muling layunin ng mga siyentipiko ang selula ng African clawed frog (Xenopus laevis) na kung saan hango ang pangalan nito , ang makina ay may sukat na mas ...

             Sa dami ng mga nangyayari sa bansang Pilipinas, at sa patuloy na pagtaas ng kaso ng COVID-19, ang natatanging solusyon maliban sa pagsunod sa mga initinalang protocols, ay ang pagpapabakuna. Ang bakuna ay isang simple, ligtas, at epektibong paraan upang protektahan ang ating katawan mula sa mga sakit. Lalong-lalo na’t kung patuloy ang pagtaas ng kaso ng COVID Delta variant. Ang pagpapabakuna ay makakatulong, sa kadahilanang maiiwasan tumindi ang paglaganap ng sakit.              Noong nakaraang Agosto 18, 2021, naitalang 10,820 bagong kaso ng COVID-19. Sa isang linggo, naitalang 12,636 ang kabuoan ng kaso. Abril ang buwan kung saan mas tumaas ang kaso ng mga positibo sa COVID-19, nang maimplementa ang pagbabakuna, ito ay unti-unting bumaba sa mga araw na lumipas. Ang bakuna ay tumutulong na hindi lumalaki ang peligrong dala ng COVID-19 sa ating katawan. Ito rin ay patuloy na may mataas na epektibong maiwa...
