ALAM MO BA 'TO?

(Do You Know This?)



Ang Buwan ng Hulyo

          Ang buwan ng Hulyo o July ay ang pangpitong buwan sa Gregorian Calendar. Noong panahon ng mga Romano, ito ang panglimang buwan at tinatawag na Quintilis. Ito ay batay sa kalendaryong likha umano ni Romulus, ang legendary ruler ng Rome, at nagsimula noong 738 B.C. Noon namang 45 B.C. pinalitan ang pangalan nito ng July bilang pagpaparangal kay Julius Caesar, ang magiting na emperador ng Roma.

          Ang gitnang oras at araw ng buong taon ay nasa buwan ng Hulyo. Sa regular na taon, ang ika-2 ng Hulyo ang gitnang araw ng taon.

          Nang sinaunang panahon, onyx ang birthstone ng buwan ng Hulyo, subalit sa makabagong panahon ruby ang natatanging hiyas ng buwan. Ang larkspur at water lily naman ang mga bulaklak para sa buwan ng Hulyo.

Si Maria Eva Duarte de Peron o Evita,
sa isang paglalarawan sa taklob-pahina
ng True Story (Sex News Komiks) Blg. 3
na may petsang Hulyo 1, 1985.

Larawang Tribiya

          Sa mga nakarinig na ng awiting “Don’t Cry for Me Agentina” ni Julie Covington, Olivia Newton-John at Madonna, ang babaeng tinutukoy ng awit ay si Maria Eva Duarte de Peron (1919-1952) na higit na kilala sa tawag na “Evita.” Siya ang pangalawang asawa ng naging pangulo ng Argentina na si Juan Peron (1895-1974). Mula sa isang mahirap na pamilya sa liblib na kabayanan ng Los Toldos, umangat si Evita hanggang sa naging first lady ng Argentina.

          Maraming kuwento ang naisulat tungkol kay Evita, at ilang beses na ring naisa-pelikula ang kaniyang buhay. Marami ring iskandalo ang naiugnay sa kaniya. Isa na rito ang diumano’y paggamit niya ng kaniyang alindog na puhunan upang umangat ang katayuan sa lipunan. Isa ang Literature Nobel Prize winner na si Vidiadhar Surajprasad Naipaul sa mga nagsulat hinggil dito. Nagpahiwatig pa si Naipaul na ang mga mapupulang labi ni Evita ay magaling sa sex act na fellatio.

          Ano’t-ano man, sa kasaysayan ng Argentina, nasusulat na marami siyang nagawang kabutihan para sa mga maralita, higit lalo sa mga kababaihan, ng kanilang bansa. Ayon kay Cristina Alvarez Rodriguez, ang kauna-unahang babaeng pangulo ng Argentina, malaki ang pagkakautang ng mga babae ng kaniyang henerasyon kay Evita sa larangan ng pakikibaka.

Nakaladlad sa likuran niya ang watawat ng Pilipinas. Mapapansin na ang pulang bahagi ng watawat ay nasa kaliwang panig na sumasagisag na nasa katayuan ng digmaan ang bansa. Sa likod nito ay ang salisalimuot at sangang-sangang paglalarawan ng iba’t-ibang mukha ng kahirapan at pakikibaka. Pinamagatan itong “Kalayaan: Isang Nanganganib na Mapuksang Nilikha” (Independence: An Endangered Species).

Larawang Tribiya

          Noong 1950, si Chou Enlai (1898-1976) ay naging overall commander ng sandatahang-lakas ng People’s Republic of China. Ito ang panahon kung saan nagkaroon ng tensyon at labanan sa 38th parallel sa boundary ng North Korea at South Korea. Maaalalang humingi pa nga ng pahintulot si General Douglas MacArthur kay President Harry Truman na bombahin ang China, na hindi naman sinang-ayunan ng pangulo ng America. Nagkaroon ng stalemate ang magkabilang panig, ang China at North Korea sa isang banda at United States at South Korea sa kabilang banda, noong Hunyo 1951. Makalipas ang dalawang taon, nagkaroon ceasefire agreement noong July 27, 1953 na nilagdaan sa Panmunjom, sa Geonggi-do province ng South Korea sa border nito sa North Korea. Dito pormal na nahati ang North Korea at South Korea sa 38th parallel na mayroong apat na kilometrong demilitarized zone.

          Si Chou Enlai ay naging Premier ng People’s Republic of China mula October 1, 1949 hanggang sa kaniyang pagpanaw noong January 8, 1976.
