MANILA, Philippines — Around 67 percent of teachers said the heat in their classroom is intolerable, the Alliance of Concerned Teachers (ACT) revealed on Tuesday. On the other hand, about 32 percent said that the temperature inside their classrooms is bearable, while 0.5 percent of respondents deem their classroom conditions as pleasant. This was the result of ACT's online survey among 11,706 public school teachers nationwide from March 24 to 27, 2023. The teachers' confederation made the survey shortly after the incident where 120 students in Laguna were hospitalized after observing classroom drills under scorching heat last March 23.

Google said it obtained a court order to shut down domains used to distribute CryptBot after suing the distributors of the info-stealing malware. According to the Chocolate Factory's estimates, the software nasty infected about 670,000 Windows computers in the past year, and specifically targeted Chrome users to pilfer login details, browser cookies, cryptocurrencies, and other sensitive materials from their PCs.  A New York federal judge this week unsealed a lawsuit that Google filed against the malware's slingers; the US giant accused the distributors of committing computer fraud and abuse, and trademark infringement by using Google's marks in their scam.

(WBC) S. Korean manager rues late runs allowed with tiebreaker loomingBy Yoo Jee-ho TOKYO, March 12 (Yonhap) -- As South Korea stares down a possible tiebreak situation to reach the next phase in the World Baseball Classic (WBC), every run counts. That's why South Korea manager Lee Kang-chul wasn't entirely pleased with his team's 7-3 victory over the Czech Republic on Sunday at Tokyo Dome. "We wanted to allow as few runs as possible while playing as many innings as possible," Lee said at the postgame press conference.

health Last February, I went for a routine mammogram that changed my world – and then my body beyond all recognition. What followed was a whirlwind of 12 biopsies, a breast cancer diagnosis , consultations, surgeons and an overwhelming mountain of information. I was diagnosed with Stage 2B breast cancer, which had already spread to my lymph nodes. A six-month course of chemotherapy — 16 cycles — was to begin as soon as Gold Coast Hospital (which is amazing) could book me in. I shaved my head before I started chemo because, in the intense dust-storm that my diagnosis kicked up, it felt like one way I could take back a tiny little speck of control.

President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. signs the Maharlika Investment Fund bill on Tuesday, July 18, 2023. (Photo from RTV Malacañang) MANILA, Philippines — President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. on Tuesday laughed off fears that the Maharlika Investment Fund (MIF) will be used for lavish expenses like cars and yachts. After signing the MIF bill, Marcos addressed questions asking why the money for the MIF cannot go directly to developing agriculture or infrastructure. READ: Bongbong Marcos signs Maharlika Investment Fund into law 'I would hear some people commenting, ‘hindi ba pag may pera tayong ganyan, may pondo tayong ganyan, dapat ilagay yan sa agrikultura, ilagay yan sa infrastructure, dapat ilagay yan sa energy development?' Nanunood ako ng television sabi ko, syempre kinakausap ko yung TV, ‘saan nyo kaya iniisip na ilalagay yan? Bibili kami ng magagarang kotse? Bibili kami ng malaking yate? Iyan ba yung iniisip niyo?' Marcos said while laughing.
