Hades : God of the Underworld

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Hades, who is Hades? He was the King of the Underworld, the god of death and the dead. He presided over funeral rites and defended the right of the dead to due burial.

Hades was also the god of the hidden wealth of the Earth, from the fertile soil with nourished the seed-grain, to the mined wealth of gold, silver and other metals. He is the brother of Zeus and Poseidon, and therefore from the first generation of Olympian Gods. He is the son of Cronus and Rhea his brothers are Zeus and Poseidon.

They all drew lots to determine which part of the world they would rule. Zeus get the sky and Poseidon received the sea. And Hades was left with the underworld.

The Top 10 Requests of Bloggers (and Everyone Else in Media)

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Quickly.... from whatever comes to mind first...I search the inner recesses of my brains ....trying to tap my memories and experiences when I attend events meant for bloggers and/or members of tri-media.

The complaints, rants, and requests are all the same. Whether for print, TV, radio, or online media. There is nothing separating them anymore (OK... may be there's a fine line between tri-media and online media). We are now talking of the same people, with same goals and needs - to cover the news and share it with the world - but to get something in return. After all, being a member of the media is extremely hard work and we also have bills to pay.

Whether you want to admit it or not, each one of us wants to be rewarded or compensated for our efforts. "Hindi naman pwedeng palaging TY at libre na lang ate".

Media people (online or offline) all deserve and expect respect. They are not here to become charitable institutions. It's work for most of them. It's nice when you are acknowledged for being supportive, but it's awesome if you get to enjoy some blessings.


Here are some of the requests we hear that we hope the establishments will grant to our vigilant media men.

Claudine Barretto Is A Battered Wife : Di Nga? This Must Be a Typo!

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Atty. Ferdinand Topacio said that Caludine Barretto has been suffering as early as 2005 from co-celebrity husband Raymart Santiago saying she is a battered wife physically, emotionally, psychologically and even "economically".

"Ayon sa aking kliyente, 2005 pa ay mayroon nang ganitong mga acts ngunit dahil nga sa pagmamahal niya noon kay Raymart at nung magkaroon sila ng mga anak, tiniis niya until it came to a point na hindi na niya kayang tiisin," he said.

Whoah!! Si Claudine Barretto ay isang battered wife?

Teka...I still remember Claudine Barretto helplessly beating up a man twice or thrice her age at the NAIA Terminal 3. Do you still remember her battle against the Tulfo Brothers?

Parang mas mukhang battered husband si Raymart Santiago ah.
