Big guns in big Pool tilt

The big names of local pool gather for the very first time in the “Queen City of the South” to vie for  honors and cash prizes in the First Senate President Manny Villar Cup Cebu Leg, slated from June 20 to 22 at the Atrium of SM City Cebu.

With no less than King Efren “Bata” Reyes wielding his magic, this second stop of the Villar Cup will surely be another world-class event.

“As I’ve promised during our kickoff leg, I will bring the Villar Cup to the provinces to give our kababayans a chance to see in flesh our world-class Filipino billiards players, and give those aspiring players there a chance to compete with them,” Senator Villar said during the press conference Wednesday at the Trade Hall of StarMall EDSA in Mandaluyong City.

The hard way for Efren Bata Reyes

Former two-time world champion Efren “Bata” Reyes  needed a lot of doing before beating erstwhile conqueror Joven Bustamante , 8-7, yesterday and entering the Top 16 of the 1st Senate President Manny Villar Cup billiards tournament at the Starmall sportscenter in Alabang, Muntilupa.

The 54-year-year Reyes had a series of dry breaks in the early going of the match and found himself trailing by three racks, 7-4, to the frustration of big crowd who watched the third day of the tournament organized by the Billiards Managers and Players Association of the Philippines (BMPAP).

Senate confident of SC reversal

Senators are confident that they will eventually win the case in the Supreme Court (SC) on the matter of the invocation of executive privilege by Commission on Higher Education (Ched) Chairman Romulo Neri, owing to the constitutionally-guaranteed provision on the separation of powers and their mandate to ensure check and balance in the government.

Senators Alan Peter Cayetano and Francis Escudero are banking on the reversal of the SC’s ruling on the Neri case, saying this will set a precedent case for Malacañang in evading inquiries involving alleged irregularities in government transactions.

“Our emphasis in filing our motion for reconsideration (MR) is that No. 1, we’re saying that the burden is on Malacañang and on President Arroyo in proving the policy on executive privilege, not the (policy of) anomaly or covering up the embarrassing political situation,” Cayetano, blue ribbon chairman, said, adding the Senate has prepared strong arguments to win the reversal.

Graft a sin, but spare Gloria from ouster says bishops

Metro Manila Catholic bishops yesterday denounced corruption in the Arroyo government but warned against removing President Arroyo from power.

The bishops, in a pastoral letter signed by Manila Archbishop Gaudencio Cardinal Rosales, along with other Metro Manila bishops, called on the people to reject violence in a statement issued ahead of a youth-led anti-Arroyo protest rally in Manila.

The group of bishops said irregularities in government contracts, among other things, violate God’s Seventh Commandment.

As repentance, the irregularities in the government contracts must be returned from the original owner and, if not found, for the money to be given to the poor.

The letter entitled “Toward a morally rebuilt nation” was issued as the country continues to face a flurry of social and political issues.
