    HINDI palalampasin ng Ateneo de Davao University (AdDU) ang insidente ng pambu-bully na kinasangkutan ng ilang estudyante sa Junior High School (JHS) campus nito.

    Kinumpirma ng pamunuan ng paaralan kamakailan lang ang nangyaring insidente at tiniyak na gumagawa na sila ng mga hakbang para maprotektahan ang estudyanteng nasaktan.

    Ayon sa AdDU na iniulat ng ABS-CBN News, sasailalim naman sa kaukulang disciplinary measures at interventions ang mga mapapatunayang responsable sa insidente, alinsunod sa tamang proseso.

    Nagsimula ang usapin matapos kumalat sa social media ang isang video kung saan makikitang sinisipa ng isang lalaking estudyante ang kapwa nito mag-aaral sa loob ng CR.

    Makikita rin sa naturang video ang pananakit umano sa biktima gamit ang mop at sinturon.

    Naganap umano ang insidente matapos ang isinagawang earthquake drill ng paaralan noong November 5.

    Kinumpirma rin ng Davao City Police Office (DCPO) na nangyari ang insidente sa nasabing petsa at naitala na ito sa kanilang police blotter.

    Naglabas na ng pahayag ang eskwelahan at inamin ang matinding lungkot sa sakit at paghihirap na pinagdaanan ng mga estudyanteng sangkot sa insidente.

    Hindi man nagbigay ng detalye tungkol sa kasalukuyang kalagayan ng mga ito, tiniyak ng paaralan na nabibigyan na sila ng kaukulang suporta.

    “They have been receiving guidance and counseling support since then. As we pursue accountability with due process, we must also protect all the children involved from public judgment, online harassment, and further harm,” sey ng AdDU.

    Binigyang-diin din ng paaralan na hindi dapat maging dahilan ng takot at pangamba ang pagpasok sa paaralan.

    “No child should feel unsafe or afraid in school. Every student entrusted to our care deserves to be protected, respected, and heard. This is why we take reports of bullying seriously and respond with care and accountability,” dagdag pa.

    Ayon pa sa AdDU, iniakyat na ang kaso sa JHS Child Protection Committee na kasalukuyang tinatapos ang imbestigasyon at mga natuklasan nito.

    Isasagawa ang proseso alinsunod sa Student Handbook ng paaralan, mga patakaran ng Department of Education (DepEd) tungkol sa child protection at Anti-Bullying Act.

    Iniulat na rin ng paaralan ang insidente sa DepEd at nakikipag-ugnayan na sa ahensya para sa mga susunod na hakbang.

    “We are also reviewing our safeguards and will further strengthen how faculty and staff recognize signs of bullying, report concerns, and act on them,” sambit ng eskwelahan.

    Samantala, personal na nakipagpulong si Police Col. Peter Madria, hepe ng Davao City Police Office, sa mga opisyal ng paaralan upang pag-usapan ang mga nararapat na hakbang para mapanatili ang kaligtasan ng mga mag-aaral.

    Tinalakay rin sa pagpupulong ang pagpapalakas ng seguridad at koordinasyon upang matiyak ang kapakanan hindi lamang ng mga estudyante kundi pati ng mga guro at iba pang kawani ng paaralan.

    Ayon naman kay DCPO spokesperson Lt. Col. Maria Teresita Gaspan, isinangguni na nila sa City Social Welfare and Development Office ang estudyanteng biktima upang sumailalim sa psychological assessment, evaluation, at kaukulang intervention.

  • NASA’s Moon Mission Ripped a Hole in Earth’s Upper Atmosphere So Massive That It Disrupted GPS Signals

    NASA’s Moon Mission Ripped a Hole in Earth’s Upper Atmosphere So Massive That It Disrupted GPS Signals

    Apart from certain issues with their space toilet, the crew of four NASA astronauts’ journey around the Moon and back earlier this year was a resounding success.

    The mission officially broke the record for the farthest any human has ever traveled from Earth, gave crew members astonishing views of the far side of the Moon — and, of course, set the stage for NASA’s first attempt to land astronauts on the lunar surface in over half a century.

    Now, according to a new study published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters, it turns out that the April rocket launch also managed to tear a massive hole in the Earth’s upper atmosphere, as Space.com reports — a major disruption in the ionosphere that was powerful enough to throw off GPS signals.

    By analyzing data from ground-based GPS receivers, a team of researchers from the National Cheng Kung University in Taiwan reconstructed how NASA’s Space Launch System rocket changed the concentrations of free electrons in the Earth’s atmosphere.

    “The total electron content observations during the Artemis-II Lunar mission revealed rare reoccurring ionospheric perturbations at three different occasions,” the team noted in its paper. The launch “triggered shock waves and unprecedented large-scale disturbances” across North America.

    Coauthor and National Cheng Kung University earth science professor Charles Lin told Space.com that the resulting positioning errors could have had serious repercussions back on the ground.

    “A positioning error of a couple of meters is enough to cause an autonomous car to change lanes,” he said. “It could have a strong impact not only on self-driving cars but also on drone positioning.”

    Other disturbances, such as powerful solar storms, can similarly wreak havoc on GPS and other positioning systems. For instance, in November of last year, a major surge in solar activity released enough charged particles to cause “significant positioning errors” of over 33 feet, “large enough to disrupt precision agriculture and autonomous transportation industries” in the US, a paper at the time concluded.

    NASA’s SLS, one of the most powerful rockets ever built, conducted three maneuvers — an initial launch, an apogee boost burn, and a trans-lunar injection — that were localized “over the same region,” causing major “ionospheric perturbations,” the authors of the latest paper found, mimicking the effects of a major solar storm, albeit on a much shorter time frame.

    “These findings establish orbital maneuver burns performed within the ionosphere as a distinct and repeatable source of anthropogenic space weather, beyond the well-established launch-stage disturbances,” the researchers wrote.

    Ahead of future launches, they suggest studying the effects of these perturbances on the health of the ionosphere as a whole, as well as their effects on global navigation systems and high-frequency communications.

    The Edifier Sona Clip have a battery life of up to 44 hours.

    Edifier has launched the Sona Clip as its latest pair of open-ear earbuds with a clip-on design. Boasting support for Hi-Res Wireless Audio, LDAC, Bluetooth 6.1, and a 44-hour battery life, the earbuds will be sold in China for the equivalent of $70.

    Edifier, the Chinese audio brand, has announced a new pair of open-ear earbuds with a clip-on design. Called the Sona Clip, they join Edifier’s other open-ear clip-on earbuds such as the Comfo Clip (available on Amazon.de for €71) and the LolliClip earbuds.

    Available in White, Gold, Black, and Pink, Edifier says the Sona Clip earbuds feature a new generation C-bridge support structure that uses a nickel-titanium alloy memory wire. The earbuds, which are rated IP56 for dust and water resistance, are not marked left and right, so users can wear them any way they want.

    The Sona Clip earbuds have support for Dolby Audio and LDAC, and are certified for Hi-Res Wireless Audio and Hi-Res Audio Wireless. There are four microphones in total for noise cancellation. Edifier also says they have wear detection, touch controls for calls and playback, and work with Deepseek AI for real-time translation.

    The earbuds have Bluetooth 6.1 and support for Bluetooth Multipoint, allowing them to be paired to two devices simultaneously. With respect to battery life, the Sona Clip last up to 11 hours on a single charge, and a total of 44 hours with the charging case.

    Edifier has put a price tag of CNY 468 (~$70/€63) on the Sona Clip, which is significantly less than Samsung’s Galaxy Buds On (available on Amazon for $229.99). The Sona Clip will be released on November 20 in China.
