Santiago, Philippines' Iron Lady — Santiago, Philippines’ Iron Lady

Manila, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles) – Philippine Senator Miriam Defensor-Santiago is often referred to as the ‘Iron Lady of the Philippines.’ She is not one to hold back on criticizing or condemning politicians who are corrupt or who use their elective positions to enrich themselves or propagate their political careers or dynasty. She is often mentioned as a viable candidate for president in the 2016 elections.

Unfortunately, she was recently diagnosed with lung cancer, forcing her to take a leave of absence from her Senate duties. In the last couple of weeks, she had announced that 80% of her cancer is gone and that she is seriously considering a run for president in 2016.

For the first time since her cancer diagnosis, Santiago returned to the Senate and announced that she was filing a new bill that would legalize the use of the middle finger against corrupt politicians. “As for the jerks in government, they are the reason God created the middle finger,” she said as she introduced her new bill.

“If my bill will pass, I will use my middle finger unsparingly to expose anomalies , corruption and stupidity that are so rampant and pervasive in our government ” she declared.

Will she become the new Margaret Thatcher?

JUSTIN BIEBER ARRESTED YET AGAIN, THIS TIME FOR INDECENT EXPOSURE (PARENTAL GUIDANCE)

New York, New York (The Adobo Chronicles) – At Fashion Rocks 2014 Concert held at the Barclays Center in New York City last September 9, teen idol Justin Bieber was booed by the audience as he went on stage to introduce singer Rita Ora. Then he proceeded to strip down to his Calvin Klein underwear to more boos from the crowd.

That wasn’t the end of the story. Bieber was arrested right after the concert and booked for indecent exposure.

This is not the first time that Bieber had a run in with law enforcement.

In January this year, Bieber was arrested in Miami, Florida and booked on charges of driving under the influence (DUI), resisting arrest and driving on an expired license.

In July of 2013, Bieber was denied entry into the U.S. at the Canadian border after patrol agents scanned his Canadian passport showing multiple past misdemeanors committed by the singer — ranging from peeing into a restaurant mop bucket in New York to failure to pay a $1,600 bill he owed an indoor skydiving facility.

In a statement issued to the press, the New York City Police Department (NYPD) said that the singer exposed himself without the required band aid cover for his nipples and for having exceeded the limit for the amount of body tattoos one can display in public.

A spokesperson for the NYPD said that Bieber is extremely lucky that his latest arrest happened in New York instead of in another state where there is a “Three Strikes and You’re Out” law. “Otherwise, he would have been locked in jail for life,” the spokesperson said.

Texas, Washington, California, Arkansas, Arizona and Massachusetts have all adopted the “Three Strikes” law.

APPLE CEO TIM COOK TO KEYNOTE CONVENTION OF MUGGERS AND SNATCHERS

Las Vegas, Nevada (The Adobo Chronicles) – Apple CEO Tim Cook has been invited to be the keynote speaker for the annual convention of the International Association of Muggers and Snatchers (IAMS) to be held at Mandalay Bay Hotel in La Vegas, Nevada, from October 3-4, 2014.

With the theme “Strategies for the Future,” some 2,000 attendees will discuss new ways to deal with emerging wearable technology, including the newly unveiled Apple Watch.

In the last decade, the mugging and snatching industry has seen a disappointing decline ever since mobile phones became popular, eliminating the need for people to wear wrist watches. Wrist watch snatching was one of the top income-generating activities for IAMS members. Since then, muggers and snatchers have switched to snatching mobile phones but people have grown smarter in protecting their hand-held devices against thieves.

IAMS president Herminegildo Nakaw who is from the Philippines, said that the association’s membership were absolutely thrilled and encouraged upon hearing of the new Apple Watch which would retail at about $349. “We’re back in business,” Nakaw said, “and we look forward to hearing from Tim Cook on more details of the Apple Watch so that we can come up with more effective mugging and snatching strategies.”

It is estimated that the mugging and snatching industry generates close to $400 Billion annually.
