The legislative branch of the Philippine government consists of two chambers - the Senate and the House of Representatives. The Senate has 24 members who serve 6-year terms, while the House has over 250 members who serve 3-year terms. Bills can be introduced by legislators or citizens and must pass through several readings and committees before a law is enacted. The legislative process involves public hearings, debates, and votes before a bill is sent to the President for approval. The two chambers can also pass resolutions to express opinions or policies.

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.

He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

14. Function of Legislative Branch
Proposed laws may come
from the senators or
representatives themselves,
the people they represent
(district, province, or the
party), or the other two
branches of the government.
These proposals are drafted
into a bill, which is a draft of
law presented to legislation
for enactment, by the
approval by Congress and
the president of the
Republic.
18. Howa Law Is Created/Amended
The basic process begins with a bill drafted by a
senator or a representative and filed for the first
reading.
The first reading is where the Senate
President or the Speaker of the
House reads out the title, bill
number, and author’s name, and
then assigns the bill to the proper
Senate or House Committee.
19. Howa Law Is Created/Amended
The author(s) or the concerned committee will send out an
invitation to various concerned parties, agencies, and
stakeholders for a public hearing of the bill to review the
proposed bill and give their comments during the
deliberations.
The concerned committee can hold a technical working group meeting
for specific changes to the provisions such as proper concepts,
correction of grammar, and deletion or addition of certain phrases
or words.
20. Howa Law Is Created/Amended
The following are some things to consider in reviewing
a bill:
1. Does the bill conform to the provisions of the
Constitution?
2. What is the main issue that the bill is trying to
address?
3. What are the methods that the bill is trying to
propose in order to answer the issue?
21. Howa Law Is Created/Amended
The following are some things to consider in reviewing
a bill:
4. Are there alternative means to address the issue?
5. Who will benefit from the bill if it is enacted into law?
How will the benefits be given? Will this create further
problems?
6. Is there sufficient fund for the law? Where will the
government get the fund needed to enforce the law?
22. Howa Law Is Created/Amended
After the approval of the bill by the committee members,
a committee report is then filed with its approved version
of the bill to the Committee on Rules for the second
reading.
In the second reading, the author of the bill
or the chairperson of the committee delivers
a sponsorship speech followed by a period
of interpellation. After the interpellation, the
senators or representatives may make some
amendments.
23. Howa Law Is Created/Amended
The representatives or the senators again vote for
the passage of the bill on second reading.
The final version of the approved bill by both
chambers is then printed for approval. Or if
there are disagreements between the two
chambers on the final version of the bill, a
Bicameral Conference Committee is created to
make the necessary changes before printing
out the final and reconciled version of the bill.
24. Howa Law Is Created/Amended
Another period of interpellation follows after which the
senators or the representatives vote for the third
reading of the bill.
No amendment shall be
allowed upon the last
reading of a bill.
25. Howa Law Is Created/Amended
Another period of interpellation follows after which the
senators or the representatives vote for the third
reading of the bill.
No amendment shall be
allowed upon the last
reading of a bill.
26. Howa Law Is Created/Amended
Upon approval of the final version of the bill by both
chambers, the Senate President and the Speaker of
the House shall sign the final copy now known as the
enrolled bill and send it to the President for approval
and signature.
27. Howa Law Is Created/Amended
The bill becomes a law upon the signing of the President.
If the House of Representatives or the Senate
still reconsiders the bill, at least two-thirds of all
the members of the House shall vote for the bill
to become a law. If the President fails to act on
the enrolled bill within 30 days upon his/her
receipt thereof, the bill becomes a law as if the
President has signed it.
28. Other Than a Bill, Each Chamber Can Make…
…Resolutions, which “conveys principles and sentiments of the
members of the Senate or the House of Representative”.
Joint Resolutions
Require the approval of both
chambers of Congress and the
signature of the President
Have the force and effect of a law if
approved
29. Other Than a Bill, Each Chamber Can Make…
…Resolutions, which “conveys principles and sentiments of the
members of the Senate or the House of Representative”.
Concurrent Resolutions
Used for matters affecting the operations of both
chambers of Congress
Must be approved in the same form by both houses
Are not transmitted to the President for his/her
signature and therefore have no force and effect of a
law
30. Other Than a Bill, Each Chamber Can Make…
…Resolutions, which “conveys principles and sentiments of the
members of the Senate or the House of Representative”.
Simple Resolutions
