My class was cancelled yesterday so I had the pleasure of volunteering to help with the technicals for a lecture on the "Power of Radio" given by Ms. Tessie Tomas at PWU Manila.  

Rather than just a straight lecture, Ms. Tomas spent the latter part of the seminar performing a one-woman drama for radio (with the help of the crowd) that she had just finished writing the day before.  Her setup included a band of three students (for musical scoring) and a slew of household items that she used for her sound effects.

"Nothing, in fact, impressed Mr. Jagor about Manila except “the beauty of the women who animate its streets.” In this, “Manila surpasses all the cities of trans-Ganges India.”

"Volume growth of passengers is limited in a congested system that operates with 27 trains or 92 light rail vehicles running every day... The ideal number is 33 trains or 115 light rail vehicles...

Gross revenues from the operations of LRT-1 and 2 increased 10% to P3.45 billion from P3.14 billion. Of this, LRT-1 revenues reached P2.51 billion while LRT-2 reached P942.97 million."
