Image
 By Rjay Zuriaga Castor The pot with cocks ( PHOTO:   Thodoris Thou ) Far beyond the traditional terracotta pots, a Cyprian sculptor figuratively creates an eccentric "Adam", a male genetilia flower pot. Thodoris Thou (Greek word means "gift of god"), born in Cyprus but now living in a remote Grecian island in the Mediterranean Sea, is a self-taught sculptor and ceramist. In a magazine "Boys with Plants", he shared that his inspiration comes from Greek mythology, modern pop culture and nature, noting his passion about gardening. "I've been working with clay since 2006, and in the last few years, have managed to set up a small workshop in Nicosia. For the last two years I've focused on the 'Adam' pot," Thodoris said.

News Fifty-four million Filipinos or more than 70% of the target population are now fully-vaccinated against COVID-19 despite the surge of Omicron cases and the difficulties caused by Super Typhoon Odette. According to the National Vaccination Operations Center (NVOC), a total of 111,383,756 vaccine doses were provided, of which 54,457,863 Filipinos or exactly 70.60% of the aimed populace had received full vaccinations as of January 13.
