This is the 2005 Christmas Station ID of GMA. The Station ID was themed “Kapuso, Ikaw ang Star ng Pasko”
The Christmas Station ID Theme was sung Martin Nievera, Jolina Magdangal, Sam Concepcion, Yeng Constantino, Erik Santos, Ogie Alcasid, Sharon Cuneta, the Christmas Carollers from GMA and the original cast from the TV5 sketch comedy show Goin’ Bulilit. Somehow, The Christmas Station ID Theme Song was shortened due to the video. Somehow, Starting in December 1, 2005, The song “Star ng Pasko” can be heard in DZBB Radyo 594 and various radio stations nationwide.
The Christmas Station ID contains Martin Nievera who is riding on a Jeepney, Heart Evangelista, Dimples Romana, Bea Alonzo, Gabby Concepcion with his daughter KC Concepcion, Eddie Gutierrez and Ruffa Gutierrez, Chad Kinis, Albie Casiño, Janice de Belen, Arcee Muñoz, Alice Dixson, Tuesday Vargas, Ritz Azul, Eula Caballero, Paolo Bediones, Sharon Cuneta, Mike Enriquez, Henry Omaga-Diaz, Jessica Soho, Mel Tiangco, Karen Davila, Amelyn Veloso, Cheryl Cosim, Alvin Elchico, Anthony Taberna, Alex Vincent Medina, Erich Gonzales, Beauty Gonzales, Christian Bables, Ogie Diaz, Piolo Pascual, Rodolfo “Dolphy” Quizon, Albert Martinez, Gerald Anderson, Luis Manzano, Matteo Guidicelli, Patrick Garcia, AJ Perez, Terence Baylon, Carl Cervantes, Martin Escudero, Derek Ramsay, Paolo Ballesteros, Pooh, Pokwang, Edu Manzano, Jericho Rosales, Christopher de Leon, Richard Gutierrez, Raymond Gutierrez, JC de Vera, Jayson Gainza, Zanjoe Marudo, John Prats, Ces Oreña-Drilon, Carmina Villaroel, Eugene Domingo, Nora Aunor, Leandro Muñoz, Kristine Hermosa, Meg Imperial, Gelli de Belen, Empoy Marquez, Mark Lapid, Cherie Gil, Raymart Santiago, JM de Guzman, Jessie Mendiola, Wendell Ramos, Pen Medina, Ping Medina, Janine Gutierrez, Rene Hawkins, Solenn Heusaff, Eric Quizon, Epy Quizon, Richard Gomez and his wife Lucy Torres-Gomez, Janno Gibbs, Polo Ravales, John Lloyd Cruz, EJ Falcon, Roxanne Guinoo, Joyce Jimenez, Valerie Concepcion, Shawn Yao, Keempee de Leon, Eula Valdez, RK Bagatsing, Ian Veneracion, Claudine Barretto, Jose Manalo, Wally Bayola, Kim Atienza, Judy Ann Santos, Cherry Pie Picache, Neil Ryan Sese, Tito Sotto, Vic Sotto, Joey de Leon, Jess Lapid Jr., Mico Halili, Hayden Kho, JP de Guzman, Vhong Navarro, Mel Martinez, Long Mejia, Jolo Revilla, Bong Revilla, Jhong Hilario, John Estrada, Oyo Boy Sotto, Gian Sotto, Ryan Agoncillo, Maine Mendoza, Catherine Bernardo, RJ Padilla, Aga Muhlach, Bembol Roco, Geoff Eigenmann, Gabby Eigenmann, Bernard Palanca, Mico Palanca, featuring child actress Angelica Panganiban who is an original cast member of Goin’ Bulilit, the Spice Girls, the supergroup Group of 30, the SexBomb Girls and DJ Lance the Dinosaur from Sesame Street. The Christmas Station ID features the pre-debut of South Korean boy band BigBang and Wayne Allwine, the voice of Mickey Mouse and Russi Taylor, the voice of Minnie Mouse and president Gloria Macapagal Arroyo who turns on the Christmas Lights and hugs Angelica Panganiban at the very end. Sadly, Fernando Poe Jr. and Mark Gil don’t appear in the 2005 Christmas Station ID because Fernando Poe Jr. died in September 11, 2005 of leukemia and Mark Gil died in November 11, 2005 due to a respiratory failure.
But eventually, This was the only Christmas Station ID to feature the crew from ABS-CBN, GMA and TV5. But somehow, The clips are used from the 2005 ABS-CBN Christmas Station ID in 2005 which is “Sabay Tayo sa Pasko, Kapamilya!”
Somehow, Arcee Muñoz, Alice Dixson, Tuesday Vargas, Ritz Azul, Eula Caballero and Aga Muhlach may have moved to TV5 in 2005, although Ryan Agoncillo has moved to ABS-CBN in 2005.

First Appearance: Wonder Woman 196 (2003) Creators: Greg Rucka and Drew Johnson Abilities: Genius engineer, business tycoon, criminal mastermind and founder of Godwatch.
Backstory: One of Diana’s more complex adversaries, the deeply self-reliant Veronica Cale wears many hats: bio-engineer, CEO, dedicated mother, god hunter and of course, contemptuous villain who won’t stop until she evens the score. Despite being rescued by Wonder Woman several times, Cale uses here wealth, intellect and expertise in chemical & technological engineering to conspire against Diana, which has brought her in league (and conflict) with prominent members of the Amazon’s rogues gallery. Her motives have changed over time, however, the core reason for her resentment becoming deeper and more personal.
Talented and industrious, Dr. Cale worked hard to earn everything she has, but as a woman working in the fields of both medicine and business, she spent her life fighting an uphill battle—a familiar story: working ten times harder to make half the progress as people with a fraction of her insight or creativity; But Cale was up to the challenge, and became the founder of a hugely successful company, accumulating vast wealth.
She had grown cynical though, and developed a ruthlessness which allowed her to survive in a cutthroat world, so when Wonder Woman arrived with her graceful god-given gifts, preaching of peace and equality, she took personal offense. Cale would attempt to smear Diana’s reputation, and later played a role in the creation of the 3rd Silver Swan, Vanessa Kapatelis, by buying her from Sebastian Ballesteros, and turning her into a cyborg.
During Rebirth Cale would gain another layer of scorn for not only Diana, but the Gods of Olympus. As the CEO of Empire Industries she would launch Godwatch, which was founded for the sole purpose of locating Themyscira—not to enhance Cale’s own power or influence, but out of desperation.
The sons of Ares, Phobos and Deimos, seeking to free their father from prison on Themyscira, had exploited Veronica by placing a curse on her daughter, Isadore, which removed her face and soul from her body. Only upon the liberation of Ares from his prison on Themyscira could Isadore be restored. To add to her grief, she would also lose her best friend, Adrianna Anderson, who died and transformed into Dr. Cyber while on a mission to find the island.
Cale exacted revenge upon her blackmailers by partnering with the sorceress Circe, and even arranged to re-curse a newly cured Barbara Minerva in order to aide her in her efforts. When she located the island Veronica learned that Isadore could only remain whole if she stayed, forcing her to leave her only daughter and heir behind. Veronica blames Wonder Woman’s personal feud with Ares for their separation to this day.

This year -- put a Book on EVERY Bed
This year: put a Book on EVERY Bed
By “Ask Amy” advice columnist Amy Dickinson
10 December, 2020
Tumblr media
Dear Readers: Every year at Christmastime, I delight in promoting a Book on Every Bed. I do so in memory of my mother, Jane, who raised her children to understand that if you have a book, you are never alone.
The idea originally came from historian David McCollough, who recounted the Christmas mornings of his youth, when the very first thing he woke up to was a wrapped book at the base of his bed, left there by Santa.
The most important part is what happens next: Family members reading together.
That’s it! That’s the whole idea!
Over the last ten years, working with my local literacy partner Children’s Reading Connection (childrensreadingconnection.org), this campaign has grown to include schools, libraries and bookstores, who have donated scores of books to families that might not have access to them. The goal – and our dream – is that families will experience the intimate and personal connection of diving into and sharing stories, the way my mother and I did throughout her life.
Over the years, important literacy advocates, such as the Librarian of Congress Carla Hayden and LeVar Burton, and bestselling children’s authors Brad Meltzer and Peter Reynolds, have endorsed and helped to spread the good word.
This year is different. So many of us are alone, hurting, and separated from family and familiar holiday routines.
All of us – not just children – need a good book on our beds.
I have broadened the scope to include specific recommendations for books spanning all ages. I’ve reached out to some of my favorite writers, literacy advocates, and independent booksellers across the country for their special picks.
Whether you purchase a book or share an old favorite, I hope you will be inspired to put A Book on Every Bed this year. It is not necessary to make a Christmas deadline – this idea is one to sustain people throughout what might shape up to be a very long winter.
Following are recommendations for all age groups.
Baby and Toddlers: From Brigid Hubberman, Children’s Reading Connection, Ithaca, NY (childrensreadingconnection.org):
Tumblr media
“Words are the language of love for babies.  The best books for infants should be about the world they know. Parents should choose books to surround babies with an abundance of loving and delightful words.”
Baby Cakes, by Karma Wilson and Sam Williams
Haiku Baby, by Betsy E. Snyder
Shine Baby Shine, by Leslie Staub and Lori Nichols
Ages 3-5: From Lisa Swaze, Buffalo Street Books, Ithaca, NY (Buffalostreetbooks.com)
“If You Come to Earth,” by Sophie Blackall is one of my favorite picture books of 2020. This book is beautiful both visually and lyrically, and it will feel like a warm hug to any child or family who receives it.
“You Matter,” by Christian Robinson is a bright and elegant book that takes children on a journey around the world to make it clear that everyone matters, and perhaps more importantly, reassure them that they matter, no matter what they look like or where they are from.
Tumblr media
Early Readers: From Sandra Dear, owner of The Little Boho Bookshop, in Bayonne, NJ (thelittlebohobookshop.com)
“The Suitcase,” by Chris Naylor-Ballesteros: This beautiful story about immigration, is full of heart and humanity as it teaches our littlest ones about hope, tolerance and kindness.
“Home in the Woods,” by Eliza Wheeler: This stunningly beautiful picture book has fast become a customer favorite. A story about starting over, of overcoming! A story of family, love and joy of being and growing together.
Tumblr media
Middle Grade Readers: From Becky Anderson, co-owner of Anderson’s Bookshop, in Naperville, Illinois (andersonsbookshops.com):
“Ways to Make Sunshine,” by Renee Watson: Watson writes her own version of Ramona Quimby, one starring a Black girl and her family, in this start to a charming new middle grade series about spirit, kindness, and sunshine.  Ryan, a fourth grader, finds the positive in difficult situations and when trouble strikes. She is that character to love and bring in the sunshine!  Grades 3-6
Skunk and Badger by Amy Timberlake, illustrated by Jon Klassen: Winnie-the-Pooh and Frog and Toad meet in a fresh take on a classic odd-couple friendship.  Klassen’s illustrations add much to a story of an unlikely friendship that proves that opposites can see the good in one another. The first in a series.  Grades 3-7
“The Silver Arrow,” by Lev Grossman: Kate’s humdrum life is transformed when her eccentric Uncle Herbert brings her a colossal locomotive train, the Silver Arrow, as her eleventh birthday gift, leading her and her younger brother on a mysterious journey.  The train will remind readers of the Hogwart’s Express. A story that is environmentally aware and calls readers to action. Perfect for fans of Roald Dahl and The Chronicles of Narnia.  Grades 3-7
Tumblr media
YA Readers: Danielle Kreger, Blue Bunny Books, Dedham, MA (bluebunnybooks.com):  "One of Us is Lying" by Karen M McManus: An edge of your seat mystery that takes place in Bayview High school during detention. Simon, a so-called "outcast," never makes it out of detention alive. What follows is a tale of twists and turns that has the reader questioning the reliability of the characters, and the secrets they keep.
"Burn" by Patrick Ness: A fast-paced young adult fantasy that begins with fifteen-year-old Sarah, who meets Kazimir – a dragon who has been hired to help on her family's farm. Still reeling from the death of her mother, Sarah finds herself feeling an intense and unusual connection with Kazimir. As the story unfolds secrets, dangers and Kazimir's true purpose are revealed.
"The New Kid" by Jerry Craft: A spot-on graphic novel about navigating a new school, new friends and identity. Jordan Banks is in seventh grade when he is sent to a rigorous private school and grapples with staying true to himself- his love for creating cartoons, how to maintain his old friends and how he fits in in a less than diverse new school. A totally lovable and relatable character!
Tumblr media
Adult Non-fiction: From Alex George, the author, most recently, of The Paris Hours, founder and director of the Unbound Book Festival, and the owner of Skylark Bookshop, in Columbia, MO (skylarkbookshop.com)
“Wintering,” by Katherine May: This is a deeply personal, quietly beautiful book, written with grace and immense thoughtfulness. We all go through difficult times; by mulling over her responses to her own misfortunes, the author offers insight as to how we might think differently about low points in our lives. Instructive, inspiring, and ultimately profoundly hopeful.
Tumblr media
“The Book of Delights,” by Ross Gay: This utterly charming book of micro-essays by Ross Gay, a beloved and renowned poet, is a perfect gift for – well, just about anyone. Gay set himself the challenge of finding one thing that delighted him each day for a year, and then writing about it. The result is a quirky, brilliant book that you can dip in and out of, always finding something to make you smile, and think. A guaranteed lifter of spirits.
“Intimations: Six Essays,” by Zadie Smith: I’ve always loved Zadie Smith’s nonfiction work, and this small but powerful book shows her talents at their finest. Written during the pandemic, these six pieces are sharp, and funny, and thought-provoking. Smith’s deeply personal reflections on this strangest of years is essential reading. If ever there was a book for these strange times, it’s this one.
Tumblr media
Adult Fiction: Mark LaFramboise, Senior Book Buyer at Politics and Prose in Washington, DC (politics-prose.com)
“The Butterfly Lampshade,” by Aimee Bender: This is a beautiful story of mental illness, the bonds of sisterhood, and the liveliness of a child's imagination.  Francie is 8 years old when the book begins, the daughter of a single mom.  This is the story of her odyssey after her mother is committed to a mental hospital, and she is sent to be raised by an aunt and uncle.
“Luster,” by Raven Leilani: Edie, the young protagonist in Luster, Raven Leilani's debut novel, is daring, sexy, hilarious, super smart, and drop dead beautiful.  Her affair with a married man takes a turn for the strange when she meets and befriends the man's wife and daughter.  Edie is whip smart because Raven Leilani is whip smart and her voice propels this beguiling novel.
“What Are You Going Through,” by Sigrid Nunez: Sigrid Nunez writes so beautifully that plot feels irrelevant.  The writer's confidence and authority are apparent from the first page.  Ultimately, it's the story of a woman who is asked by an old college acquaintance to be with her when she takes her life, after a cancer diagnosis.  But, like her previous book The Friend (about a woman who inherits a large Great Dane), it doesn't matter what story she tells because her words bristle with life.
Tumblr media
Elders: Gayle Shanks, Changing Hands Bookstore, in Tempe and Phoenix, AZ
(changinghands.com)
“Apeirogon,” by Colum McCann: Two fathers, one Palestinian and one Israeli have both lost their young daughters to violence but have decided that reconciliation, not revenge, is what they needed to seek. In the process, they became best friends. McCann describes the insanity and senseless violence bred in the Middle East, the Occupation under which the Palestinians are forced to live, but also the beauty of the country, the migration of birds, the many ways humans overcome adversity and find solace in the natural world and each other. In a series of 1001 fragments, McCann walks us through his imaginary polygon, the Apeirogon of the title, containing an infinite number of sides, an infinite number of gorgeous sentences, and ultimately an infinite number of ways to view the human condition.  
“All the Way to the Tigers,” by Mary Morris: Travel writer Mary Morris’ book, written in small chapters, was in some ways similar to reading Colum McCann's, Aperagon, also written in small bits (in his case 1001, in Mary's -- 112 chapters). Morris travels to India in search of the elusive Bengal tiger, but in so many ways she is searching for herself and her place in the world as she recovers from a serious ankle injury that leaves her debilitated but determined.  
In her short vignettes, she quotes Rilke, Wendell Berry, other writers she admires and reminds us how important it is to listen intently to others as in active listening we are rewarded with deeper understanding.
Tumblr media
“The Chair Rocks,” by Ashton Applewhite: From childhood on, we’re barraged by messages that it’s sad to be old. That wrinkles are embarrassing, and old people useless. Author and activist Ashton Applewhite believed them too—until she realized where this prejudice comes from and the damage it does. Lively, funny, and deeply researched, This Chair Rocks traces Applewhite’s journey from apprehensive boomer to pro-aging radical, and in the process debunks myth after myth about late life. The book explains the roots of ageism—in history and in our own age denial. Whether you’re older or hoping to get there, this book will shake you by the shoulders, cheer you up, make you mad, and change the way you see the rest of your life. Age pride!

Restricted Mobility (Formerly): Vanessa lost the use of her legs in one of Wonder Woman's fights with Major Disaster. However she was able to regain the ability to walk with the help of nanites. Schizophrenia: Vanessa's exposure to the nanites had hideously warped her mind as it did her body. Producing a split personality which identifies as Silver Swan whom was belligerent, volatile and confrontational.
Tumblr media
History (New Earth)
Vanessa Kapatelis is the daughter of Julia and David Kapatelis. She grew up with her mother in Boston, and met Wonder Woman when she attended school. Though originally jealous of Diana, they eventually grew closer. This was exploited by Doctor Psycho, who expanded the fears Vanessa already had after losing her father and the suicide of her best friend. He used underlings to drive a wedge between Vanessa and Diana. Psycho, Circe and Sebastian Ballesteros unleashed their influence on her, and with mental conditioning and cybernetic implants, transformed her into the Silver Swan. They set her loose on Wonder Woman and Wonder Girl, and the latter's secret identity was exposed as a consequence. Silver Swan was defeated and sent to a hospital.
Ballesteros abducted her again, and Veronica Cale purchased her for a new plan against her enemy Wonder Woman. With additional cybernetic enhancement, Cale sent Silver Swan to the Themyscira House. Wonder Woman defeated her, and this time, with help from Amazonian doctors and Leslie Anderson, fully removed her cybernetic enhancement. Vanessa returned to school, and eventually graduated.
Tumblr media
Origin (Prime Earth)
During a battle between Wonder Woman and Major Disaster, teenager Vanessa Kapatelis was saved by Wonder Woman after being crushed under rubble. Having lost the use of her legs, Wonder Woman would often visit Vanessa to encourage her during rehabilitation. Diana's frequent visits caused Vanessa to consider her to be Diana's best friend, and pictured herself fighting side by side Wonder Woman as the superhero "Silver Swan". Later, Vanessa was given access to an experimental treatment to cure her paralysis: injecting nanites into her body that are controlled by her brain to repair the damage. As Diana became more busy and famous, she stopped visiting. To make matters worse, Vanessa's mother died in car accident. Vanessa believed that the loss would compel Diana to return to her, but word apparently never reached her. Worst of all, the grief of her mother's death disrupted her brain's ability to control the nanites, leaving her unable to walk yet again. All of this sent her into a deep depression, and led her to believe that Diana was never been her friend. Resigning herself to watching Diana's exploits on the news, the sight of Diana treating others after disasters the same way she had been treated pushed her to the breaking point.

BANDAS DEDICADAS AL ATRACO EN TRANSMILENIO CONTABAN CON AYUDA DE POLICÍAS
Artículo tomado de ABC Política.
Lunes 9 de noviembre del 2020 -   Al parecer, los patrulleros informaban a los criminales en qué momento debían entrar a realizar los hurtos.
Tumblr media
Gracias a Fiscales de la Estructura de Apoyo de la Seccional Bogotá, las redes delincuenciales ‘Los K’ y ‘Fénix Admon’, ambas dedicas al robo en buses del Sistema de Transporte Masivo de TransMilenio, fueron descubiertas y judicializadas. En este orden de ideas, las 12 personas que fueron capturadas mediante un operativo hecho por la policías judicial Sijín, se dedicaban a hurtar en las modalidades de atraco y cosquilleo.
‘Los K’, por su parte, utilizaban armas blancas para lesionar a las víctimas que oponían resistencia durante el robo, mientras que ‘Fénix Admon’ se dedicaban al hurto mediante la modalidad de cosquilleo en las estaciones de Transmilenio de CAD, Paloquemao, Ricaurte y Calle 75.
Pero, además, las investigaciones dieron a conocer que, al parecer, miembros de la Policía Nacional que se encargaban de la seguridad de TransMilenio, también hacían parte de estas bandas, encargándose de informar a los criminales cuándo ingresar a las estaciones sin tener que toparse un grupo delincuencial con el otro; labor por la que recibían entre 300 y 400 mil pesos.
Así las cosas ,los investigados detenidos fueron identificados como Edison Swen Orjuela Castillo, Jaime Millán Arias, Michael Andrés Ruiz Fonseca, Wilmer Andrés Bermúdez Ballesteros, Ángelo Eduvey Angarita Roa, Anderson Stiven Orjuela Martin y Laura Alejandra Ardila Pinzón. Al igual que fueron judicializados los patrulleros Yeison Dayan Guzmán López y Óscar Orlando Olivera Vargas.
Finalmente, el ente acusador imputó a los integrantes de estos grupos los delitos de concierto para delinquir, hurto agravado, cohecho por dar u ofrecer y cohecho propio.
