Torks Buban hail from Tacloban and are well-known private practitioners . Atty. Owens Disini is the chief legal officer of U.P. Open University, Atty. Ana Bernad is the deputy general counsel for corporate affairs of U.P.. We’re doing this in our private capacity as friends of Atty. Patrick  Santo.   Here we are when we were with the U.P.

Here’s the FB message from Atty. Owens Disini) “Dear classmates, Patrick Santo wants to thank everyone for the kind words and condolences he received for his Tatay Paping. He texted me today his account number in Tacloban. For those who wish to send their “abuloy”, it is BPI, J. Romuladez – Tacloban City Branch, Savings Account No. 1126-0191-33. However, an alternative that he suggested is for us to contribute to buy a generator set that he can use and share with his ka-baranggay. Patrick said he just needs the most basic and standard generator (maybe at least 2 hours). He said we can give it to Torks (Atty. Torks Buban) who may have a way of bringing it to Tacloban. So far, I have collected Php23,000 from Eddie V., Lindy and from me & JJ. I need your suggestions on this, please. Thanks.”

        Please join us.  

      Mommy (Lydia C. Lambino, Los Angeles, California) sent her support with condolences and encouragement today , c/o Atty. Ana Bernad (i dropped by the 3rd floor office).

     Please join us in lighting one barangay in Tacloban with  one generator set. Thanks.

Onward, “to infinity and beyond!”

“The sky is an immortal tent built by the Sons of Los :
 And every space that a man views around his dwelling-place
 Standing on his own roof or in his garden on a mount
 Of twenty-five cubits in height, such space is his universe:
 And on its verge the sun rises and sets, the clouds bow
 To meet the flat earth and the sea in such an order’d space:
 The starry heavens reach no further, but here bend and set
 On all sides, and the two Poles turn on their valves of gold:
 And if he moves his dwelling-place, his heavens also move
 Where’er he goes, and all his neighbourhood bewail his loss.
 Such are the spaces called Earth and such its dimension.
 As to that false appearance which appears to the reasoner
 As of a globe rolling through voidness, it is a delusion of Ulro.
 The microscope knows not of this nor the telescope: they alter
 The ratio of the spectator’s organs, but leave objects untouch’d.
 For every space larger than a red globule of Man’s blood
 Is visionary, and is created by the Hammer of Los;
 And every space smaller than a globule of Man’s blood opens
 

   

1.infinity

 Into Eternity of which this vegetable Earth is but a shadow.
 The red globule is the unwearied sun by Los created
 To measure time and space to mortal men every morning.”
                                                 William Blake
