Support for Abandoned Woman and Family

http://famli.blogspot.com/2006/10/support-for-abandoned-woman-and-family.html

Summary:

[1] If you and your children have been abandoned by your husband or live-in partner, you can compel him to give financial support by filing a petition for Protection Order under RA 9262.

[2] In filing this petition, you can get free legal help from the Public Attorneys Office or the Integrated Bar of the Philippines chapter offices. You can file the petition with the Family Court of the place where you live.

[3] Support includes everything necessary for sustenance, dwelling, clothing, medical attendance, education and transportation, in keeping with the financial capacity of your family.

[4] You can ask for support pendente lite (while the case is ongoing).

[5] The Family Court judge will set the amount of support in proportion to your needs and the resources of your husband or live-in partner.

[6] In the Protection Order, the judge will direct the employer of your husband or live-in partner to remit the support directly to you and your children.

[7] If your husband or live-in partner and his employer disregard the Protection Order, you can ask the judge to cite them for contempt of court. The penalty for contempt is imprisonment or fine.

rodrigue

rodrigue is a curious and an oddity of a man. ever since he could remember he lived in two parallel worlds shifting arbitrarily for days in and out. but lately he seemed to have been stuck with one world longer than he could care for. in fact, he had been living in this medieval place to almost a year already.

the first world is made up of natural laws, amazing inventions, and discoveries. this world is commonly described as earth. and this is where rodrigue thought to originally come from. in this world, he was a student of science currently a senior attending a prestigious college. he watches science fiction regularly.

the other world is made up of dreams, fantastic creatures, and even more fantastic places. this is where he had been living for several months now. in this world he is a student as well, but this time in pursuit of magic. he is currently under the tutelage of an old wizard, named agrippa, who is the only person in the whole universe who is aware of rodrigue's predicament. well the only one who thinks rodrigue is telling the truth anyway. it has been quite sometime now he shifted. and he is now beginning to think that he just dreamed of the other world.

on the onset he was branded a lunatic blurting out what seemed like delusions at least to the people of this world, were in fact real for the other reality. his stories had made people around him afraid. he was lucky, by way of a town's consensus, to have been brought to agrippa for study. or perhaps the town's folks thought that since agrippa is just as bizarre, that together they might get along well. and so they did.

now with old agrippa teaching him the ways of magic where someday somehow he hopes to possibly discover a way back, and if he is lucky, also why ..

miss universe 2011

after the show every vampire had something to say. here is mine .. je croise les droigts pour ..

1. mlle. leila lopez d'angola. je ne savais pas qu'ils parlent le portugais la-bas qui je viens de découvrir quand j'ai visité son site. beau visage. j'adore sa peau noire. elle est comme une nubienne déesse. et devine quoi? elle a gagné et elle l'a mérité. et alors, FELICITATIONS MLLE ANGOLA!

2. mlle. nadine alexandra d'indonesie. la fille d'a coté.

3. mlle. scherri-lee biggs d'australie. comme un rayon de soleil.

4. mlle. natalia gantimurova. mysterieuse et attirante.

5. mlle valerie shu xian lim de singapur. elle apparait sensationelle dans le costume national.

pourquoi je ne suis pas un fan de mlle. supsup? elle a représenté mon pays dans le spectacle. alors, principalement parce qu'elle ne réponds pas bien. elle apparait trop ordinaire.

y a-t-il de la vie sur les autres planètes? her response is incoherent. she tried to make her point by demonstrating how huge the planet is (with hand action to show that it was round? and this huge?) and concluded with how there could be another planet which is as big. ergo .. not exactly a sharp answer.

si tu étais un animal quel type d'animal et pourquoi? she wanted to be a bird because birds fly and they're free. other responses were i thought a lot more superior (well thought of) like one had said she would have been the lion because of its courage. citing admirable qualities that people ascribe to animals made the most sense and in retrospect, there does not seem to be anything admirable for being able to fly (as it comes naturally to them) or being in the state of freedom. it is not as if birds fought for theirs did they?

vas-tu convertir (religion) si ton mari t'a demandé? her response was appreciated probably by most people. religious people. but if you think about it. it wreaks fanaticism. meaning ask any islamist jihadist and you will get exactly the same answer. my god is the true god and yours is false type of thing.

it would have been a better response had she answered with more consideration with respect to all types of beliefs. it would have been a more inclusive response had she acknowledged that there are (close to 3,000) belief systems in existence and it was something that needs to be dealt with on a very personal level because religion is personal. it sounds to me that she gave an automatic response. or this was something she doesn't deal with everyday. questions of about faith and religion.

and finally, it bothers me that she needed to point her finger upwards (your god is up there? really? up there? what are you 12? héhéhé

redemption: une critique

redemption is a short story by a friend who aspires to become published (which i do so hope he achieves) one of these days. it is a story about child abuse perpetuated by a priest of a religious school. and might i say only the goddess knows which school my friend was writing about. my friend asked me to make a critique of it.

i obviously am rooting for negro-boy who i think anybody, who was different or who has been bullied in their childhood would agree, was 100% relatable except perhaps the part where he made his conclusions (about faith and religion being at any level useful for a well rounded and productive future)

and also to my profound disappointment, having had decided to actively participate himself in the heinous art of mental and physical torture of minors .. all for the cause ..

i would say the story is effective, in the sense that it succeeded in evoking strong emotions and memories in me i haven't felt and thought about for a time. it wasn't particularly enjoyable to read having no stomach for it. but i just had to read through it if only to find out if the protagonist succeeds over his enemies. if at the end he would wake up and see reality.

i think maybe he wasn't as fed up as i thought or the mental side effect called stockholm syndrome had taken place. for i was waiting to see justice and it didn't come. justice against racism, bigotry, the bullying, and finally, the inherent malevolence behind religious instruction. justice against child abuse.

i consider child abuse a very serious matter and the way they continue to treat children in religious schools reminding me how they used to make me feel unworthy and guilty on a regular basis. is it any wonder why our society is messed up at present? what does one expect of a society that is a direct result of this system of guilt and torture.

i also found some typos:

1. This meant that the graduates of the Journey were the ones to would initiate the new participants.
2. All of this will test of your faith in God.
3. We probably looked convicted criminals sentenced to die a concentration camp
4. It a windowless room,
5. asking him spare me from another day of
6. You can look us for when you are finished packing.”
