Eala dethroned defending champion Iga Swiatek, 7-6(9), 6-2, in the third round of the 2026 Wimbledon Championships on Saturday.

The 21-year-old tennis ace—who was, before this, already the country's first Filipina to reach third round of a Grand Slam—will face Italy's Jasmine Paolini in the Round of 16.

So nagpa-change oil ako ng 2022 Toyota Innova 2.8 E A/T ng family namin sa isang Petron Car Care Center last weekend somewhere in Manila dahil naka-35,000+ km na ang odometer ko, where I finally switched to a fully-synthetic REV-X RX800 5W-40 engine oil.

Bukod sa engine oil, bigla akong nagtaka sa oil filter na inilabas ng staff at ikinabit ng mechanic on duty, dahil instead of VIC C-111 oil filter na specifically built for Innova, Fortuner, and Hilux, ang inilabas nilang oil filter ay VIC C-418 na based sa search results, para specifically sa mga Mazda vehicles. Tinanong ko yung mekaniko kung wala na ba silang C-111, sabi niya ay wala na daw, at kung compatible ba talaga ang C-418 sa Innova, ang sabi niya ay oo. Yung huli kong change oil sa kanila, tama naman ang oil filter na ginamit (90915-YZZD2), though Max Power ang brand, tapos ibang mechanic ang gumawa.

Upon checking the size, mas mahaba at mas malapad ang C-418 compared sa C-111, pero same lang ang thread size nila na 3/4-16UNF. See the specs below.

My question is, should I be worried na magkakaroon ng oil leak ang Toyota Innova namin dahil lang sa maling oil filter na ikinabit na out of specification ng manufacturer?

DISCLAIMER: I AM NOT ASSOCIATED sa NDFP, CPP, NPA, or any far-left groups na mayroon tayo, specifically those under the Communist and/or National Democracy banner.

I am curious lang sa nakita ko about sa CASER, or Comprehensive Agreement on Social and Economic Reforms na itinutulak ng mga National Democrats, specifically the National Democratic Front of the Philippines na associated sa Communist Party of the Philippines at New People's Army, also in certain extent, ang Makabayan Bloc ng House of Representatives. I've heard of that term before and I once delved into a draft agreement na ilang beses na nilang ni-revise para umayon sa current events, and I found out sa Article I, Section 6 ng "FOREIGN ECONOMIC AND TRADE RELATIONS" ang laman nito na medyo nakakabahala:

>The Parties shall promote economic independence by building closer mutually beneficial economic relations and cooperation with neighboring countries in East Asia – while correcting imbalanced relations with China, Japan and South Korea – and other countries beyond the region, including the BRICS countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) as well as other countries asserting their sovereignty and independence.

Basically, they're only targeting anything aligned with the United States, and shifting our economic cooperations with China and Russia, much like the Dutertes did from 2016 to 2022, and possibly (hopefully not) by 2028 to 2034. What if pinirmahan ito ng panig ng gobyerno natin at ng NDFP. Do you think we will really prosper under a communist rule na itinutulak nila similar to what China or Vietnam is today, or magagaya lang tayo sa North Korea with cult of personality na isinasamba natin si Joma kahit patay na? Because personally, this does way more harm than good in most aspects of life.

Resources are easily found in Google naman, specifically NDFP website.

Philippine Airlines is set to join the oneworld Alliance, making it the 16th member of the global airline alliance.

PAL Holdings president Lucio Tan III called this development a defining and transformative moment for the Philippine flag carrier. He said they will deliver greater choice, consistent journeys, and a world-class travel experience to Filipinos and global travelers.

“Becoming a member of the oneworld Alliance and strengthening Southeast Asia’s representation within the group significantly brings the Philippines and the region closer to the world like never before,” Tan said.

PAL said the airline received an invitation to join the alliance today at the International Air Transport Association Annual General Meeting in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

In this first part of our Laauna Food Crawl series. Erwan travels across Biñan, Calamba, Bay, Santa Cruz, Nagcarlan, Victoria, and Liliw in search of the flavors that define Laguna today. Along the way, he meets Chef RV Manabat and visits longtime local eateries and roadside karinderyas to experience both classic favorites and newer local offerings.

For many Filipinos, Laguna is tied to memories of outings, hot springs, road trips, and quick weekend escapes. But beyond the resorts and vacation homes is a province filled with stories, flavors, and people worth slowina down for.
