Deion Sanders hobbles to get around these days, but his ability to command an audience is even more potent than it was during his speedier playing days. Just three games into his first head coaching job in college football's top division, the guy who went from Prime Time to Coach Prime has been the non-stop talk of the sporting world.

LEGAZPI CITY—Residents who evacuated in the towns of Sto. Domingo and Guinobatan in Albay have refused to return to their houses despite being told by their town officials that those living outside the 6-kilometer permanent danger zone (PDZ) of the restive Mayon Volcano could already leave the shelters. Some Sto. Domingo evacuees said they preferred staying at shelters and 'hut city' even if they live outside the PDZ since they believe it was safer that way. Rose Milarpes, 29, said they would still stay inside the nipa hut they built at Sitio Bical in Barangay Salvacion of Sto.

CEBU CITY, Philippines — The campaign against indiscriminate garbage disposal and the proliferation of street dwellers is not something that can be completed overnight, according to Cebu City Mayor Michael Rama. And this should be made a 'continuing process,' he added. Rama said he wanted to wait for the outcome of the debriefing of law enforcers and government personnel who were actively involved in its implementation before he would know how well the city has faired in its campaign and be guided what to do next.
