Gireklamo ang usa ka quarrying operations nga gihimo sa Barangay Pagahat, sakop sa lungsod sa Candijay di pa lang dugay ug giandam na matud ang complaint nga ipasaka sa Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) tungod sa padayong pag kutkot sa bato didto.
Ang tinubdan sa BBDN nitaho nga ang gihimong quarrying operations posibleng makadaot sa public infrastructure apil na niini ang poste sa NAPOCOR diin naglatay and tinubdan sa kuryente ug ang gikutkutan anaa pa gyud duol sa tunghaang elementarya sa Pagahat-Ang, Pagahat Elementary School.
Ang nakaparat, matud pa, nga ang LGU mismo sa Candijay ang naghimo sa maong quarrying operations aron itambak ang mga nakuhang bato ngadto sa karsada nga gipang ayo sulod sa lungsod ug gigamitan pa sa mga heavy equipment.
Gikabalaka sa mga residente didto nga ang nagpadayong pagkotkot sa mga bato makahimong kadaut sa ilang kalikopan ug posibleng makahatag ug disgrasya sa mga kabtangan ug kinabuhi sa mga tawo nga naduol sa lugar kon ugaling moabot ang dakong uwan nga mu resulta unya sa landslide.
Matod pa sa tinubdan, nga adunay ordinansa sa probinsya nga nagdili sa mga quarrying operations kon kini himoon, 500 metros ang gilay-on gikan sa mga public infrastructure. Apan ang gihimong pagpangotkot anaa ra gayud sa nataran sa eskwelahan sa elementarya sa Pagahat ug anaa sa tiilan mismo sa poste sa NAPOCOR.
Gawas sa gi andam na letter of complaint, gihangyo usab sa mga residente ang Provincial government nga ila untang aksyonan kining nagpadayon nga operation bisan pa man kon ang LGU mismo maoy naghimo sa maong operation.

Manila,Philippines –Leaders of the Catholic Church have decided to relocate an American priest after having found out that he was convicted of sexual misconduct when he was a seminarian in Detroit,Michigan in 1988.
Father Joseph Skelton is to be moved from his ministry in Central Tagbilaran city, to a still undisclosed place, an official of the Catholic Bishops’ Conference said Monday.
“The CBCP will issue an official statement on the matter within the next few days,” a spokesman for the conference who did not want to be named, told the AFP.
The website story on the website said the bishops only found out in November that Skelton was convicted of sexual misconduct when he was a seminarian in Detroit, Michigan, in 1988.
“Had I known of his conviction, I would not have ordained him,” the website quoted Tagbilaran’s former bishop, Leopoldo Tumulak, as saying.

ONE congressional representative, three town mayors and two vice mayors are virtual winners before could be voted upon, and automation has nothing to do with it.
While some 1,234 other candidates in Bohol are burning rubber exhausting energies to persuade voters into rooting for them in the campaign trail, these six politicians might as well prepare for their separate victory parties.
The country’s former Agriculture Secretary Arthur Yap (Bohol’s third District) and incumbent mayors Dominisio Chatto of Balilihan town, Roberto Salinas of Catigbian and Thomas Louis Gonzaga of Danao all run unopposed and have the top seats handed to them in silver platter.
23 days into the country’s first automated national and elections, these candidates are now devoting their spare time campaigning for their slates to assure them of more allies as their new mandates start July 1.
Aside from Yap’s sure seat, eight other candidates vie for the two remaining congressional seats in Bohol in a political “Trip to Jerusalem” of sorts.
Some five candidates throw their hats for the single gubernatorial seat while four more are eyeing at being the chief presiding officer in the province’s highest legilslative body, data from the Commission on Elections (COMELEC) show.
Another 28 candidates are vying for the 10 seats as district Board Members: 10 of them from District 1, eight from District 2 and another 10 from District 3.
Discounting the three sure winners for mayoralty seats, some 107 candidates would be politically slugging it out to sit in opened 45 mayoralty seats in 47 towns and a city.
Aside from Vice Mayor Jose Cepedoza of Danao who has sealed his seat when he ran unopposed, some 113 vice mayoralty candidates would be sweating wits to outsmart co-candidates into the voter preference count.
Meanwhile, some 964 candidates for councilors would be restless until the eve of the elections, wooing voters through intelligence, charm and talent to be elected.
Only 384 of them would be lucky enough to get into the 48 town and city councils.
At the prospect, election supervisor Labaria said it would be historic if in Bohol, we could do away with the sore loser and for those who lost to gracefully concede. (PIA-Bohol)

A SINISTER plot involving a top politician in the 2nd district of the province to ease out PNP provincial director Anthony Obenza so he could be replaced with a more “friendly” police provincial director was uncovered last week.
An unnumbered memorandum dated April 8, 2010 and signed by Police Director Abner Cabalquinto “terminated” the designation of PSSupt Anthony Lao Obenza as Acting Provincial Director of the Bohol Police Provincial Office.
Slated to replace Obenza was PSSupt Rodolfo Abejo Llorca effective April 15.
But unconfirmed reports say a Boholano politician has actively sought the intervention of DILG Secretary Ronaldo Puno to cause the issuance of a relief order.
Sensing an evil scheme to derail the gains achieved by the Provincial Peace and Order Council (PPOC) to ensure clean, honest and orderly elections, Governor Erico Aumentado immediately filed an injunctive relief with the courts and sought for the issuance of a temporary restraining order (TRO).
