Hi Primer,

The stats on ratings are from the SWS from early in the year to sometime June.

Ok. Will await the congressional inquiry.

BTW, I headed the task force from the DepEd to negotiate with the GSIS to give the teachers a better deal. So far, wala pa akong na-accomplish. Haven’t accomplished anything because its very difficult to meet with these people, much less communicate decently.

Regards,
dean

Licealize is pyrethin-based, the same ingredient used by Hartz anti-flea (for dogs). The requirement was for citronella (4% to 6% content).

NOTE: okay for dogs, not for people. Do not let the hartz anti-flea drops touch your skin.

when you go to a top school, you invest a whole lotta money. Why in the world will you settle for a lousy job with lousy pay, and staffed with people with lousy attitude.

Go out there, be the best you can be and compete in the global market – why be parochial when you can be world class.

Dean defends DepEd or Jesli Lapuz, for that matter against the liars (for their lies), critics (for their criticisms, accusers (for their previous but timed accusations), polemicians (for their puffed-up polemics).

And for what does he have to go out of his way to defend what he considered a supposed-to-be well-rating department of government (from that point of view that it is the least corrupt – by his own patronizing assessment)?

To my mind, the following are not exactly lies, namely:

1. errors in textbooks

2. overpriced noodles

Since a House Resolution has been filed, it is best to await the results of the congressional inquiry that would address the concerns raised by Congressman Palatino. Until then, it will be premature to sort of “sweep all the LIES into the dustbin”. Some of these, are simply factual.

Who made these useless politicians the highest paid
people in our country? Themselves! They voted themselves
high pays and allowances. Even most of them are useless.

Filipinos are confused with their priorities.
Politicians have the easiest jobs, excellent pay,
the best benefits and the respect of the masa.
Teachers get low pay, lousy facilities, lousy
hungry and under-educated students, get assigned
extra work like manning the polling stations
without getting extra pay.

Guess which job the Pinoy youth would rather have???
Oh, yeah…. OFW.

i found this link on the internet: http://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=129748623412

i guess this is what you mean?

you say: “the number of citronella shampoo to be procured was changed from 500 to 75 sets still with the same allocation of 1 million pesos”.”

and you defend it thus: “These figures are incorrect and refer to oto-opthalmoscopes for auditory and visual disability examinations and not to pediculosis-effective shampoo. There is a difference. Just as there are differences between commercially available shampoos and those specified by the DepEd.”

i dont get the first sentence. are you saying the congressman’s figures are wrong? the quantity for the citronella shampoo DID NOT change?

are you saying that they DID CHANGE, but they are different from store bought shampoos, presumably better?

in what sense are they better? would it have been better to buy the cheaper shampoo? from the link above:

”
WHEREAS, according to our computations, a sachet of the DepED citronella shampoo costs P6.00 in the first bid and P12 for 10mL in the rebid;

WHEREAS, this computed unit price of the DepED citronella shampoo appears far more expensive than lice-removing shampoos sold in the market, e.g. Licealize (P9.92 for 10 mL);”

is the shampoo in the market appreciably WORSE that the ones in the contract?

Dean,

I am a product of a mailman and elevator operator who knew that their kids would succeed if they had good principles, worked hard, and had a book in their hands at a young age.

Teaching is so crucially important, eh? It shows us the world, opens us to riches beyond gold and silver . . . You are a good product yourself . . .
