Police: No truth to bomb threat at PI’s prayer rally
The Davao City Police Office (DCPO) has debunked a text message claiming a bomb threat at the People's Initiative (PI) “Unity for One Nation, One Prayer” rally in San Pedro Square. The message warned of possible explosions at Rizal Park, one of the rally venues. Despite the lack of credible threats, the police urged vigilance and cooperation from the public for safety.

Ed Formoso returns afte 27 years
Ed Formoso was a prolific producer and songwriter during the late ‘70s and winner of four Cecil Awards during the ‘80s for the band Dinosaur. He was a hotshot during those days. Formoso has decided to get back to the swing of things or better put, the rhythm of the music. He is now 69 years old but just like before he is brimming with ideas. These should be interesting given the fact that he has three new originals that make up a new concept project called Sgaaty or Still Gago After All These Years. Leading the batch is a hard rock song War! Oh No! (The Anti-War). Watch out for that ‘still gago’ tag. Formoso might just shake up Filipino music again......»»
