Eldorado Gold Releases Updated Mineral Reserve and Mineral Resource Statement; 2024 Gold Mineral Reserves Increased to 11.9 Million Oz with M&I Gold Mineral Resources of 22.0 Million Oz; Inaugural Mineral Reserve Declared at Ormaque; Outline of 2025 Reporting ScheduleNoneFINAL VERSION The bicameral conference committee on the draft 2025 national budget meets at The Manila Hotel on Wednesday, where lawmakers later approved the P6.252-trillion purse of the Marcos administration in a midterm election year. —Niño Jesus Orbeta MANILA, Philippines — The bicameral conference committee reconciling differences in the House of Representatives and Senate versions of the proposed budget for 2025 on Wednesday approved the final version of the P6.252-trillion general appropriations bill (GAB). Members of the panel stood pat on their decision backing the move of the House to trim the spending plan of Vice President Sara Duterte’s office next year by P1.3 billion on the heels of the congressional inquiry into her alleged misuse of hundreds of millions in confidential funds in 2023. READ: Secret fund use hits P10B; OVP outspends 4 security agencies The Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) and the Philippine Health Insurance Corp. (PhilHealth), two of the government’s primary social protection agencies, lost P96 billion and P74.4 billion, respectively, in the bicam report as compared to House Bill No. 10800 that the Senate had adopted on Nov. 26. READ: Senate, House agree to ‘open bicam’ to reconcile 2025 national budget On the other hand, lawmakers increased by almost P289 billion the budget of the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH), which had consistently been at the center of various corruption allegations in the past. From P825 million, the DPWH’s expenditure program ballooned to a record P1.1 trillion, making it the first department to receive such a huge amount in annual appropriations. The House also emerged as among the biggest gainers in next year’s budget as the bicam increased its allocation by more than 100 percent. Under the approved spending program, the 300-member chamber will get P33.7 billion, up from its P16.3-billion allocation under the GAB. The House’s pet aid scheme, the Ayuda sa Kapos ang Kita Program (Akap), also managed to avoid the chopping block. Speaker Martin Romualdez announced that the bicameral committee retained P26 billion out of the initial P39.8 billion eyed for Akap, which seeks to provide financial aid to people who are unemployed or who earn much less than the minimum wage. The entire fund will be handled by the DSWD. During the Senate deliberations, Sen. Imee Marcos had moved the fund allocation for Akap to another social program under the DSWD, citing the vague purposes of the program. While it was not included in the budget crafted by the administration, Akap was inserted by the House in its version. The reconciled version also included an increase in soldiers’ subsistence allowance from P150 to P350 a day, or P10,500 a month, an allocation which Romualdez said was made upon the instruction of the President. The House and the Senate ratified on Wednesday night the reconciled version in their plenary, with opposition lawmakers voting against the budget measure. It will then be sent to Malacañang, which will scrutinize and recommend its approval or veto of some provisions to the President. Presidential Communications Office Secretary Cesar Chavez said the tentative signing into law of the 2025 GAB is scheduled on Dec. 20 at 9 a.m. But several senators did not hide their disappointment over the “worrying” changes made. Expressing concern, Sen. JV Ejercito pointed out that the Universal Health Care (UHC) Act, which he had sponsored and authored, mandated the allocation of government subsidy to PhilHealth for the premium of indigents, senior citizens, persons with disabilities and other nonpaying members. “My worry is that the allotment for (PhilHealth subsidy) is actually mandated by law,” Ejercito told reporters. “The sin tax law also earmarks a certain percentage for PhilHealth’s indirect contributors. So we need to resolve that,” he said, referring to the tax revenues collected from cigarettes and alcoholic drinks. Sen. Grace Poe, who defended the national spending plan as chair of the Senate finance committee, acknowledged that the bicam could not accommodate the requests of all lawmakers since Congress could not go beyond the budget proposal that Malacañang had prepared. “This is a collegial body. We all have our own ‘wish list’ that we want to fulfill. But in the end, the majority wins,” Poe said in an interview. As to the scrapping of the PhilHealth subsidy, the senator admitted that the matter was “very contentious.” According to Poe, the state health insurer has not been spending the allotment it received yearly from the government, which prompted the Department of Finance to order it to remit P89.9 billion of its “excess funds” to the national treasury. “PhilHealth, if I’m not mistaken, still has P600 billion in reserve funds. So PhilHealth will not be given any budget because they need to use their reserve funds first,” Poe said. Senator Risa Hontiveros warned that her colleagues’ decision would not only violate the UHC and sin tax laws, but the 1987 Constitution as well. She insisted that it was the obligation of the state to provide medical insurance and services to poor and underprivileged Filipinos. “Denying PhilHealth support to pay the premium contribution of the most vulnerable is to deny Filipinos our right to health,” Hontiveros emphasized. “That’s why this ‘zero subsidy’ is unfair, illegal and potentially unconstitutional,” she warned. “It is ironic that PhilHealth gets zero subsidy on the eve of International Universal Health Coverage Day.” Sen. Juan Miguel Zubiri resented the decision of the bicam panel to thumb down his proposal to augment by P247.5 million the budget of the Department of Science and Technology (DOST). Instead, the committee added only P172.5 million to the state agency tasked with leading the country’s response to natural disasters. “I’m disappointed,” Zubiri said, noting that the proposed increase in the DOST’s outlay was for the acquisition of additional equipment for the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology. Senators Marcos and Christopher Go, both allies of Duterte, did not attend the second and final bicam meeting at the Manila Hotel. Sen. Ronald dela Rosa, Hontiveros and Go opted not to sign the bicam report on President Marcos’ third national budget. Subscribe to our daily newsletter By providing an email address.

Falslev scores 27 as Utah State beats South Florida 88-67 for best start in school history 10-0The Slate Electric Flosser combines thoughtful design and ease of use, making it a great addition to any dental hygiene routine. Its innovative features simplify flossing for users who find traditional methods difficult, offering a convenient and efficient way to maintain oral health. While it may require some upfront investment and adjustments in technique, it proves to be a practical solution for consistent, hassle-free flossing. I could see some people being apprehensive of this product since it requires an ongoing expense of the floss heads. I’ve tried very hard — especially in the last few years — to take care of my teeth. I have an electric toothbrush that I use every day and I have noticed a difference in my overall dental health because of it. One thing I’ve never been good about doing at home is flossing. My dentist has always reminded me that it is an important step in , but it’s something I’ve never been great at. Maneuvering around inside my mouth with a tiny piece of string...it’s just not been an easy task for me to accomplish. Fortunately, there is now an electric flosser that helps me check this box off of my at-home dental care. Meet Slate. The Slate Electric Flosser is a revolutionary oral care tool designed to elevate your dental hygiene routine with precision and ease. Combining cutting-edge technology with user-friendly design, it offers an effective alternative to traditional flossing by targeting hard-to-reach areas between teeth and along the gumline. This sleek, compact device uses advanced sonic vibrations or water-jet technology (depending on the model) to dislodge food particles and plaque while promoting healthier gums and fresher breath. With customizable intensity settings, it accommodates users of all sensitivity levels, ensuring a comfortable experience every time. Features include a rechargeable battery for convenience, a water-resistant body for safe use in the bathroom, and interchangeable nozzles for hygienic sharing among family members. Whether you’re looking to enhance your oral health or seeking a simpler, faster way to floss, the Slate Electric Flosser is the perfect addition to your daily routine. Slate has a list price of $96 for the flosser and the initial stock of replacement heads. Replacement floss heads are $20 for a one-time purchase of 20 heads. It can be purchased through slateflosser.com or . Getting started with Slate was extremely easy. I did read the instructions thoroughly even though I was eager to try it out when it arrived. The flosser comes with 5 floss heads — one attached and four extras. It also comes with a magnetic charging cable, but no power adapter. It is recommended that at least a 20W charger is used. I happened to have a very small 20W charger that worked well for this purpose. So, I plugged it in and let it charge to full before I used it the first time. I will note that Slate had some charge to it out of the box, but since the instructions recommended charging it to 100% before using it, that’s what I did. As you might expect, the first time I used the flosser, there was a little bit of gum irritation. It wasn’t anything too severe though and I believe it was less of an issue than when using standard floss. As with an electric brush, you want to let Slate do most of the work for you. Since it works by utilizing vibrations to loosen up particles that might be trapped between your teeth, you simply want to work the floss head between your teeth gently and move it back and forth a few times. I found this to be incredibly easy and since the flosser arrived, I’ve been diligent about flossing when I brush every day. The information provided by Slate states that the floss on the head should last about one week with consistent use. I can verify that after exactly seven days of use, the string on the head broke and I had to replace it. Again, this was an easy process, and within a few seconds, I had Slate ready to go for the next use. I have charged Slate a couple of times since I received it but it was more precautionary than reactionary. I never let the battery completely die. I would charge it after a couple of days of use just to make sure it was ready for the next time. Since I got Slate, I happened to have a dentist appointment. So I took it with me to my appointment and asked my dentist for his opinion of it. He said that as far as efficiency goes, he wasn’t sure how well it measured up against standard floss, but that if it got someone flossing who hadn’t been doing anything, it was worth it. He did suggest that I keep it on the lowest setting so that I didn’t chance causing any damage to my gums or teeth. The Slate Electric Flosser is a game-changer for anyone who has struggled with traditional flossing. With its easy-to-use features, innovative design, and thorough cleaning capabilities, it makes daily flossing a more achievable and enjoyable task. While it might not completely replace standard floss in every dentist’s eyes, it provides an excellent option for improving dental hygiene, particularly for those who struggle with consistency or technique using traditional methods.
