		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday was the moment of truth for Chief Justice Renato Corona and the senator-judges. Not only the Chief Justice but also the senators are on trial. How will they decide the case? Will they decide based on the merits or for political considerations? Will they succumb to the lobbying of both sides? Will they decide thinking of the coming elections? Will conviction or acquittal of Corona add to their chances of winning? After the senators make their decision on Corona, how will the people judge them? (This is being written on Tuesday morning, before Corona was to testify in his defense before the Senate impeachment court.)]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Monday morning in Tokyo I went to the car park of a nearby hotel to join people waiting for the solar eclipse scheduled for 7:30 a.m. (Japan time). Spring with its variable weather isn’t the best time for viewing a solar eclipse but after a brief rain the clouds cleared, providing the cheering crowd an opportunity to see an annular eclipse last seen in Okinawa in 1987. Eclipses are not visible throughout the globe and the annular eclipse of May 21 was eagerly awaited, the likes of which was last seen in Tokyo 137 years ago, in Osaka 282 years ago, and in Nagoya 932 years ago.]]></description>

He cleared one roadblock in forcing Merceditas Gutierrez to resign and replacing her with Conchita Carpio Morales as ombudsman. He’s now on the verge of removing an even bigger obstacle on the daang matuwid with the impeachment and conviction of Chief Justice Renato Corona.]]></description>

As if its hands were not full enough, the Senate has begun probing the iniquity allegedly done by a Panamanian national against one of our Maria Claras. It castigated the Department of Foreign Affairs which sprang him from local custody by hastily affirming his diplomatic immunity. The case is now all sound and fury as the accused rapist has already flown out of the country.]]></description>
