Phivolcs-Davao refutes disinformation shared online
The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology-Davao Region (Phivolcs-Davao) has refuted false information circulating on social media claiming that there are five active underwater volcanoes in Hinatuan, Surigao del Sur, which allegedly triggered the magnitude 7.4 earthquake on December 2. The misleading post, shared by thousands of netizens, was debunked by Phivolcs-Davao research specialist Eduardo Lauron, who emphasized the absence of any volcanoes in Hinatuan. He urged the public to rely only on official announcements from reputable sources like Phivolcs, which continuously updates information. Phivolcs clarified that there are only eight active inland volcanoes in Mindanao, none of which are located near Hinatuan. The earthquake was determined to be tectonic in origin with a depth of 26 kilometers, consistent with the region's seismic activity. Phivolcs highlighted the presence of active faults and trenches in the area, contributing to seismic events. This incident underscores the potential impact of disinformation in causing mass hysteria and anxiety. As the affected areas recover from the earthquake, it is crucial for the public to seek information from reliable sources to avoid misinformation and unnecessary alarm......»»

Is it menopause?
With each passing birthday I get closer and closer to that midlife transition known as menopause, and whenever I feel unusually warm, I wonder if it is finally happening. Menopause is the time when a woman no longer has menstrual cycles for 12 continuous months. It is a natural biological process and is not a disease. The average age of menopause for Filipino women is 49 years old, and the changes can begin between in the early 40s, with symptoms starting three to five years before menses stop and can even last for an average of seven years up to 14 years after the menses stop. One of the most commonly associated symptoms of menopause are hot flashes -- a feeling that typically begins as a sudden sensation of heat centered in the upper chest and face that rapidly spreads all over the body. The sensation of heat lasts about two to four minutes and is often associated with profuse sweating and occasionally palpitations, sometimes followed by chills and shivering and a feeling of anxiety. Hot flashes usually occur several times per day and are particularly common at night and can interfere with sleep. While hot flashes are the most common symptom of menopause, it is not the only symptom. Once the menses start becoming irregular, women can feel irritable and have mood swings, trouble sleeping, joint pain, incontinence, memory loss and depression. Some may have trouble describing their symptoms, and they may consult with a number of specialists -- from cardiologists to gastroenterologists, endocrinologists and psychiatrists. Menopause can also occur after surgical removal of the ovaries. Menopause can also occur after surgical removal of the ovaries. If you have surgery to remove your uterus (hysterectomy) you will no longer have periods, but if your ovaries are left behind you can still go through perimenopause and menopause later on. If your ovaries are also removed during a hysterectomy, you may experience symptoms of menopause immediately. The management of menopause varies from person to person and depends on the severity of symptoms and a woman’s overall health. Several approaches can be considered: 1. Lifestyle changes. Many women find relief from symptoms by adopting a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise, a balanced diet and stress reduction techniques. 2. Maintaining an appropriate weight for your height. 3. Hormone replacement therapy. This involves taking medications that replace the hormones (estrogen and sometimes progesterone) that decline during menopause. It can effectively relieve symptoms but carries some risks and is not suitable for everyone. 4. Non-hormonal medications. Some non-hormonal medications can help alleviate specific symptoms, such as antidepressants for mood swings or prescription creams for vaginal dryness. 5. Alternative therapies. Some women explore alternative treatments like acupuncture, herbal supplements or natural remedies to manage their symptoms, though the efficacy of these methods can vary. 6. Regular health checkups. It’s crucial for women in menopause to maintain regular health checkups, as this life stage can be associated with an increased risk of certain health conditions, such as heart disease and osteoporosis. A visit to your doctor can help to find out if you could be going through perimenopause. If have any of the symptoms but are younger than 45 years old, these may not be due to menopause but other hormone problems. Your doctor can order some blood tests to check your hormone levels to determine the cause of your symptoms. Menopause is a transformative journey that every woman will experience. While it comes with its share of challenges, it is a natural and inevitable part of life. Understanding the phases, symptoms, causes and management options for menopause can empower women to make informed decisions and embrace this new phase with confidence and grace. It is also important for women to seek support, whether from healthcare professionals, support groups or loved ones, to navigate this significant life transition successfully.

Electric cute
Senator Sherwin Gatchalian raised a valid point when he said last week that the use of purely electric vehicles, or EVs, in this country will never become widespread unless and until an extensive infrastructure for charging their batteries is put in place. Indeed, unlike hybrids — whose owners can always count on the vehicle’s ICE or internal combustion engine to get them back home should the battery go flat — battery-only cars will leave you stuck should your lithium-ion cell’s charge go kaput. This concern has given rise to a new addition to the lexicon: Range anxiety, the worry an EV owner feels when his car’s battery is about to be depleted during a trip. This is ironic, considering how the Philippines is presently being flooded with affordable EVs, and how, almost a decade ago, cities like Manila under then-Mayor Erap Estrada took the lead in adopting EVs for public transport by subsidizing the purchase of e-tricycles and e-jeepneys. Indeed, although the “green-ness” of EVs is still open to question (with critics saying that you still need power generated by fossil fuels to charge them), EV enthusiasts are quick to point out its many advantages over ICE vehicles: Zero emissions, lower maintenance costs, better road performance, among other things. Charging under present circumstances, however, is a bitch. An EV comes equipped upon purchase with a cable that allows you to plug the car into an ordinary wall socket, but this takes eight to nine hours for a full charge. A fast charger is available (although not always) that will charge the unit in an hour or so, but the cost is prohibitive and will negate whatever tax incentives the government is giving on EVs. The solution in other countries is to provide fast charging outlets all over their cities, and to require owners of private parking lots to provide dedicated EV parking with fast chargers. As things are, however, only SM malls have so far provided charging ports for EVs. As for public charging stations, well, not to denigrate our people, but how long will it take for some a-holes to tap into them for free electricity or to vandalize them? With an average range of 350 kilometers (and under ideal conditions at that), EVs can only be used around town. It will take a generation or two before we can build fast charging stations out of town in convenient places, let alone in urban centers, enough to encourage EV owners to use their cars daily and on provincial jaunts. And then, the durability and reliability of EVs over ICE vehicles are yet untested. While EVs have fewer parts to wear out and have lower maintenance costs, the car is run by sophisticated electronics and is practically a rolling computer that requires highly trained technicians to fix. We still don’t know how the microchips will hold up in the Philippines’ tropical weather and bumpy roads. Parts are also expensive; the cost of the battery alone is a third of the price of the car. Heaven help you if that should conk out. Whereas with older ICE vehicles and newer lower end ones, parts are cheap and aplenty, and your friendly neighborhood “taller” around the corner has someone who can repair your regular car in a day or two. Unless these problems and concerns are addressed, EVs will remain relegated to novelty: for rich kids flexing their supposed environmental consciousness; or for the smaller, cheaper EVs, a toy for zipping around the immediate environs of your home. In the final act, EVs will remain as second or third cars, to be used during coding days (since they are exempt), and for showing off to friends. In other words, pampa-cute.
