tatlong haligi ng oposisyon.Nakakuha ng suporta angMalacañang sa maramingsenador para sa mahalagangboto para patalsikin si RenatoCorona bilang Chief Justice, naitinuring ni G. Aquino bilangbalakid sa layunin niya ng pag-babago.

Sa ilalim ng pamumuno niEnrile ay dumaan sa butas ngkarayom ang mahahalagangpanukalang batas ng pamaha-laan, kasama na ang sin tax atreproductive health bills, na ni-lagdaan niya noong isangbuwan upang maging batas.

Dahil diyan, idiniin ng Pan-gulo ang pangangailangan namaglagay ng mas maramingkaalyado sa Senado.

By TJ Burgonio

PUMASOK na ang kasalukuyang administrasyon

sa “critical stage” ng krusada nito tungo sapangmatagalang pag-unlad at mabuting pamu-muno, ayon sa Pangulo, na magsisimula ng ikalawangbahagi ng kanyang panunungkulan ngayong 2013.

“This New Year, a tighter uni-ty is needed. I expect that ourpeople will be more critical inchoosing the leaders that they 

 will elect,” wika ni Pangulong Aquino sa kanyang pahayag napam-Bagong Taon. “It is theseleaders who will respond to thecall of an honorable and truth-ful public service. It is theseleaders who will nurture the re-forms that we have sown.”

Dahil diyan, ani G. Aquino,mahalagang magpasya ang mgaPilipino sa patutunguhan ngbansa ngayong 2013.

Kaugnay niyon, sinabi ngPangulo ang kanyang hiling saBagong Taon: Ihalal ang mgatamang pinuno sa Senado.

“Are we paddling togethertoward the same path wherethe welfare of Filipinos isparamount? Or should we letour country be swept away by the waves of greed, individual-ism and corruption?” aniya.

Magpapatakbo ang pamaha-laan ng 12 kandidato sa Senadosa darating na halalan sa Mayoat sumumpa ang Pangulo naikakampanya sila para matiyak 

No 13th month? MagsumbongDAPAT magsumbong sa Depart-ment of Labor and Employment(Dole) ang mga pribadong em-pleado na hindi nakatanggap ngkanilang 13th-month pay nitongDisyembre.

“We encourage workers to re-port violations as the 1 3 th-month pay is a core labor stan-dard,” ani Labor Secretary Rosa-linda Baldoz.

Sinabi ni Baldoz na ang mgapaglabag ay maaring itawag saDOLE call center sa numerong

Kailangang iulat ng mga em-ployer ang pagsunod nila sa pag-bibigay ng 13th-month pay.

 Ayon kay Undersecret ary forLabor Standards Lourdes Tras-monte, maaring maharap sa ka-song administratibo ang mgaemployer na hindi magbibigay ng naturang incentive pay. TGS

‘American by birth,

Filipino by heart’By Jocelyn R. Uy 

THEY loved Fr. James Reuter, SJ,for his dedication as a great com-municator of the Gospel, hisbeautiful musical plays and in-spiring stage dramas, and mostly for genuinely loving the Philip-pines and serving its people.

Catholic Church members,especially those who had the

opportunity to work with thebeloved American Jesuit in his46 years of service with theCatholic Bishops’ Conferenceof the Philippines (CBCP),evoked good memories of himas they mourned his passing

 yes terd ay.“An American by birth, a Fil-

ipino by heart, he was a com-municator par excellence,” saidMsgr. Pedro Quitorio, the CBCPmedia director.

“Aside from pioneering hisown brand of stage drama and

literature, he will be remem-bered for initiating the ruralmimeo press during martial lawand for facilitating the estab-lishment of radio stations inmany dioceses throughout thecountry,” added Quitorio.

Sorsogon Bishop ArturoBastes described him as a “very pious and exemplary” Jesuitpriest whom he always saw

 wearing his Jesuit habit.“He was a great communica-tor of the Good News of Jesususing modern media and evenmusicals, plays and movies,”said Bastes.

 As a young seminarian,Bastes was one of the many 

 who admired Reuter’s work, al- ways taking the time to watchthe college musicals that he di-rected, including “The Sound of Music,” “Show Boat” and“South Pacific,” among others.

in The Great Gatsby  A SCENE from Pacific Rim

MARTIN Freeman as Bilbo Baggins in The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug

Formidable film slate for 2013F

rom the most eagerly anticipat-ed reboot of the Superman fran-chise, to new offerings from

master directors Guillermo del Toro,Bryan Singer, Baz Luhrmann, AlfonsoCuaron, to the continuation of theblockbuster series The Hobbit and The

 Hangover, the 2013 line-up of WarnerBros. Pictures lives up to the studio’sthrust: to entertain the world.

Check out Warner’sformidable slate of films for the comingnew year!

 Man of Steel. A  young boy learns thathe has extraordinary powers and is not of this Earth. As a youngman, he journeys todiscover where hecame from and whathe was sent here todo. But the hero inhim must emerge if 

he is to save the world from annihila-tion and become thesymbol of hope for allmankind.

 Pacific Rim. Whenlegions of monstrouscreatures, known asKaiju, started risingfrom the sea, a warbegan that wouldtake millions of livesand consume humani-

ty’s resources for years on end. To com-bat the giant Kaiju, aspecial type of 

 weapon was devised:massive robots, calledJaegers, which arecontrolled simultane-ously by two pilots

 whose minds arelocked in a neuralbridge. But even theJaegers are provingnearly defenseless inthe face of the relent-less Kaiju. On the

 verge of defeat, theforces defendingmankind have nochoice but to turn totwo unlikely heroes—a washed upformer pilot (CharlieHunnam) and anuntested trainee(Rinko Kikuchi)—whoare teamed to drive a

legendary but seem-

ingly obsolete Jaegerfrom the past. Togeth-er, they stand asmankind’s last hopeagainst the mountingapocalypse.

 Jack the GiantSlayer tells the story of an ancient war thatis reignited when a

 young farmhand un- wittingly opens agateway between our

 world and a fearsomerace of giants. Un-

leashed on the Earthfor the first time incenturies, the giantsstrive to reclaim theland they once lost,forcing the youngman, Jack (NicholasHoult) into the battleof his life to stopthem.

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug.The second in a trilo-

gy of films adaptingthe enduringly popu-lar masterpiece The

 Hobbit, by J.R.R.Tolkien, The Hobbit:The Desolation of Smaug continues theadventure of the titlecharacter Bilbo Bag-gins (Martin Free-man) as he journeys

 with the Wizard Gan-dalf (Ian McKellen)and 13 Dwarves, ledby Thorin Oaken-shield (Richard Ar-mitage) on an epicquest to reclaim thelost Dwarf Kingdomof Erebor.

300: Rise of an Em- pire. Based on Frank Miller’s latest graphicnovel Xerxes and toldin the breathtaking vi-sual style of theblockbuster 300, this

new chapter of the

epic saga takes theaction to a fresh bat-tlefield—on thesea—as Greek generalThemistokles (Sulli-

 van Stapleton) at-tempts to unite all of Greece by leading thecharge that willchange the course of the war. 300: Rise of an Empire pits

Themistokles againstthe massive invadingPersian forces led by 

mortal-turned-god Xerxes (Rodrigo San-toro), and Artemesia(Eva Green), vengefulcommander of thePersian navy.

Gangster Squad.Los Angeles, 1949.Ruthless, Brooklyn-born mob king Mick-ey Cohen (Sean Penn)runs the show in this

town, reaping the ill-gotten gains from thedrugs, the guns, the

prostitutes and—if hehas his way—every 

 wire bet placed westof Chicago. And hedoes it all with theprotection of not only his own paid goons,but also the policeand the politicians

 who are under hiscontrol. It’s enough tointimidate even the

bravest, street-hard-ened cop…except,perhaps, for the

small, secret crew of LAPD outsiders led(Josh Brolin, RyanGosling), who cometogether to try to tearCohen’s world apart.

The Incredible BurtWonderstone. Super-star magicians BurtWonderstone (SteveCarell) and AntonMarvelton (Steve

Buscemi) have ruledthe Las Vegas strip for years, raking in mil-lions with illusions asbig as Burt’s growingego. But lately theduo’s greatest decep-tion is their public

friendship, while se-cretly they’ve grownto loathe each other.Facing cutthroat com-petition from guerillastreet magician SteveGray (Jim Carrey),

 whose cult followingsurges with each out-rageous stunt, eventheir show looksstale. But there’s stilla chance Burt and

 Anton can save theact-both onstage andoff-if Burt can getback in touch with

 what made him lovemagic in the firstplace.

The Great Gatsby follows Fitzgerald-like, would-be writerNick Carraway (Tobey Maguire) as he leavesthe Midwest andcomes to New York 

City in the spring of 1922, an era of loos-ening morals, glitter-ing jazz, bootlegkings, and sky-rocket-ing stocks. Chasinghis own AmericanDream, Nick landsnext door to a myste-rious, party-givingmillionaire, Jay Gats-by (Leonardo Di-Caprio), and across

the bay from hiscousin, Daisy (Carey Mulligan), and herphilandering, blue-blooded husband,Tom Buchanan (JoelEdgerton). It is thusthat Nick is drawn in-
