Ram Revilla murder suspects apprehended

Ram Revilla killed in his home last Friday.

Two suspects in the murder of actor Ram Revilla have been arrested by the police Monday, ABS-CBN reported.

They are Michael Cruz Altia and Roy Francis Tolisora who are alleged hired killers. The two, including 3 other suspects who are still at large, are accused of shooting and stabbing Revilla to death inside his house in Parañaque City, last Friday, as well as shooting Revilla's girlfriend Janelle Manahan who survived the attack.

Revilla's brother who happens to be Senator Ramon "Bong" Revilla, Jr. had offered P500,000 bounty for information that would lead to the apprehension of those involved in the crime.

According to a TV Patrol report, the "love-triangle" angle as motive in the killing of the 22-year old actor had been dumped by investigators since there is not enough evidence to support it.

Meanwhile, an ABS-CBN report says that investigators are now looking into the possibility of a relative to have masterminded the murder.

7 billionth baby arrives in the Philippines

The 7 billionth occupant of the world has arrived! She is Danica May Camacho, a 5.5-pound premature baby, who was born at 11:58 p.m. on Sunday at Dr. Jose Fabella Memorial Hospital in Manila, Philippines.

The symbolic 7 billionth baby was welcomed with a chocolate cake marked "7B Philippines" and various gifts including a college scholarship.

Since thousands of baby are being born each hour, it is impossible to determine who and where the 7 billionth will be born. The United Nations decided to hold a series of "7 billionth baby" festivities worldwide which started in the Philippines and will be held in other parts of the world, today, October 31, 2011.

Dr. Eric Tayag of the Department of Health told the media that 7 billion is something to think about "deeply."

"We should really focus on the question of whether there will be food, clean water, shelter, education and a decent life for every child," he said. "If the answer is 'no,' it would be better for people to look at easing this population explosion."

The world's population had reached its first billion in 1804. A century after, another 1 billion people were born, cascading in the 20th century: 3 billion in 1959; 4 billion in 1974; 5 billion in 1987; 6 billion in 1998.
