Philippine Azkals beat Mongolia Blue Wolves, 2-0

February 10, 2011

Philippine Azkals beat Mongolia Blue Wolves, 2-0 victory in the first leg of their Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Challenge Cup qualifying tie at the jampacked Panaad Stadium in Bacolod City on Wednesday night.

Emilio “Chieffy” Caligdong tricked a defender near the Mongolian goal and nutmegged the Blue Wolves’ goalie to hit the back of the net.

The second goal was scored by Phil Younghusband in the 92nd minute, deep into injury time.

Following a sneaky pass from Jason Sabio, the Filipino-British midfielder muffed his attempt against a Mongolian defender.

Younghusband, however, followed this up with a curling shot that sent the Filipino spectators to jubilation.

He acknowledged the cheers coming from the crowd, even doing a cartwheel to celebrate their second goal.

The Azkals, not known for their offense, put up a solid attacking game against the Blue Wolves.

In the first half alone, the Filipinos had 7 goalscoring attempts against the Mongolians’ 2 attempts.

Angelo Reyes commits suicide

February 8, 2011

Former Armed Forces Chief and Defense Secretary Angelo Tomas Reyes on Tuesday morning committed suicide by shooting himself in front of the grave of his mother at the Loyola Memorial Park in Marikina City.

A close friend of Reyes called the Philippine Daily Inquirer to break the news, while Colonel Boogie De Leon, a former administrative officer of Reyes when he was AFP chief, said Reyes was rushed to the Quirino Hospital at about 7:45 a.m. to revive him. Members of his family could not be reached for comment.

De Leon said that Reyes’s son Jett called him up to inform him of the incident.

Reyes, who earlier suffered a mild stroke before the congressional investigations on the alleged AFP financial irregularities, said he could not take anymore the smear campaign against his name and his family.

“Not my family,” he said.

Reyes, who loved his mother very much when she was still alive, earlier told the Philippine Daily Inquirer in an interview that he would never do anything that would besmirch the name of “my good mother.”

Reyes, a graduate of Philippine Military Academy Class ’66, was AFP chief under President Joseph Estrada, and secretary of defense, interior and local government, and energy during the term of President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo from 2001 to 2003. He graduated as the class valedictorian in high school and was among the top ten graduates of the PMA.

He went on to obtain two masteral degrees, namely: Masters in Business Administration from Asian Institute of Management in 1973 and a Master of Public Administration from Harvard’s John F. Kennedy School of Government in 1991. He also took up International Defense Management Course in Monterey, California in 1983.

In 1987, he graduated No. 1 in Trust Operations Management Course conducted by the Trust Institutes Foundation of the Philippines at the Ateneo Business School which eventually earned him a scholarship to the Northwestern University in Chicago, Illinois.

About Survivor Phil.

Survivor Philippines premiers on September 15 at 9:15 p.m. with a power-packed episode you'll never forget.

After more than a year of planning and production, the Survivor Philippines team has produced a word-class reality series that lives up to the high standards of Castaway Television Productions, the owners of Survivor.

The making of a world - class reality series

After countless meetings, consultations and brainstorming sessions, Survivor Philippines held nationwide auditions attended by more than 43,000 Survivor fans and aspiring castaways.

To give more Filipinos a chance to be part of this groundbreaking reality series, GMA chose 18 instead of 16 contenders to be part of Survivor. The contestants underwent a rigorous screening process to make sure that each one is up to the life-changing challenge that awaits them.

As for the Filipino counterpart of Jeff Probst, there was only one choice on who will host Survivor Philippines: reality TV guru Paolo Bediones.

With 18 castaways and 120 production staff in tow, the Survivor Philippines team flew to Koh Tarutao island in Thailand to embark on their biggest challenge yet.

The perils of island life

Staying for more than 39 days in a place called the Devil's Island cannot be easy.

Both the castaways and the production team had to deal with elements both seen and unseen whether on land or at sea.

Whenever there was a challenge at sea, everyone had to beware of lurking manta rays, sharks and sea urchins.

Everyday there would be stories of wild animal encounters that can send even the most brave man running.

Snakes, crocodiles, scorpions, tarantulas and wild boars were just some of the few animals that lurk in the island ready to strike at the unguarded tribe member at the most opportune time.

Then there were the ghost sightings, spirits of the ancient island inhabitants who visit the tribes at night.

Despite the daily threats, the show went on in the island.

The real test of human nature

Living in an island deprived of basic necessities while competing for the chance to win three million pesos can really bring out the best and the worst of human nature.

Some castaways proved to be ruthless villains who would do anything and everything to beat his opponents.

Still others proved to be remarkable heroes who cared more about saving people's lives than winning the game.

There were numerous faces of deceit, hate and defeat as well as truth, love and triumph.

This promises to make Survivor Philippines a must - see with various twists and turns that will keep you at the edge of your seat long after the closing credits.
