The Hydrometallurgical Processing Plant (HPP) project was proposed in 2000 by CBNC and RTNMC to process low-grade nickel ore stored in the company’s open dumpsites. The HPP is an industrial enclave consisting of a hydrogen sulfide plant, limestone quarrying operation and support facilities such as causeway and coal power plant. Both limestone and hydrogen sulfide are needed in the nickel refining process. The limestone will be quarried from Mt. Gotok located in Barangay Iwahig, Municipality of Bataraza which is within the ancestral domain of the Pala’wan indigenous community. Hydrogen sulfide, on the other hand, will be processed out of the sulfuric acid imported from Japan.

Estimation of the Total Economic Value of the Proposed Mt. Mantalingahan Prot...No to mining in Palawan
The study was undertaken to value the environmental services of the Mount Mantalingahan Range, and determine the management costs of protecting critical habitats within the proposed protected landscape. The total economic value (TEV) framework was used to estimate the values of the goods and services that Mount Mantalingahan provides. The use values include direct uses (timber, farming, livestock production, non-timber forest products gathering, water and mining), and indirect uses (carbon stock, soil conservation, watershed and biodiversity functions, and protection of marine biodiversity). Non-use values were not estimated because of time and financial constraints.

Why should we be concerned about the
Abra River system?
Yearly fish kills, death of domestic animals that drink from its banks, skin disease among those who bathe in it, poor agricultural yield, disappearing fish and plant life – these are some of the complaints aired by communities living along the banks of the Abra River. The existence of rich river flora and fauna and the use of watercraft for small-scale trade even in the smaller rivers that the Abra
River supplied are now only familiar in oral accounts.
Is the Abra River biologically dying? Is it on the brink of environmental collapse? What will be the fate of the indigenous peoples, peasants and fisherfolk living along its banks? Let us act now before it is too late.
What is the historical significance of the Abra River system to the peoples of the Cordillera and Ilocos Regions? With its headwaters originating from Mt. Data along the Mountain Province-Mankayan, Benguet border and its estuary situated in Caoayan, Ilocos Sur, the Abra River traverses the present Cordillera

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Editor's Notes
KANANGA is some forty kilometers from my hometown--Palompon.
The place was unknown to many (including myself) for many years back. I only knew this place, as a small, rustic, laid-back rural town in Leyte. Whenever I passed by this place, (let's say ten years ago) in going to Tacloban, this is unnoticed to many.
But contrary to my belief there are many things that Kananga has to offer. I learned five years ago that this town is a first class municipality, and is producing electricity to many parts of the country, but that time, I cannot believe that, since I know Kananga as a relatively small town, and I seldom go to this place before, because of the reported insurgency related incidents, etc.
Two years ago, a vision-oriented leader of this town has aggressively transformed this sleeping small town into a dynamic municipality.
Many things that happened to Kananga and now even skeptics believed that Kananga is indeed a promising town and has lots of potentials;
* It is the geothermal capital of the Philippines, being the home of the largest geothermal plant in the world; and is supplying electricity to Luzon, Samar, Biliran, Leyte, Bohol, Cebu, Negros and Panay.
* Kananga is a major rice producer in the province of Leyte (thanks to Mayor Codilla's program on rice production)
* This town is the sugar capital of Eastern Visayas, with its vast tract of land devoted to sugarcane and the home of the only sugar mill in Region 8.
* The place of the newly proclaimed Eco-Zone by PGMA located in a 30-hectares of land in Montebello, near HISUMCO
* The town has a world-class training center run by EDC, Kananga-LGU and TESDA, which offers tech-voc courses.
* Kananga is a major producer of many agri products
* This town is a major livestock producer in Leyte
* It has potential tourism spots, like Hotspring in Tongonan, Uban falls in Libertad, Yamashita Defense Line in Libongao, Queen's Pineapple plantation in Masarayao, Our Lady of Queen of Peace Hermitage in Natubgan, Ocean View in Mahawan, etc. and many other scenic spots.
Now, I am happy to find this place, my new found home- KANANGA.
