Wazzup Pilipinas!

Dreaming of having your own home, then you should wake up now and head on over to any of the properties developed by New San Jose Builders, Inc. (NSJBI)!

The renowned Filipino property developer headed by its chairman, Mr. Jose Acuzar recently launched a heightened campaign to reach more Filipinos and provide them with quality yet affordable homes.

Honestly, its my first time to hear about this developer but I've heard the name of Mr. Acuzar already. It seems reputation precedes him as the man behind the properties is more famous than his creations.

New San Jose Builders, Inc from its humble beginning back in 1986 as a contractor of government projects, it has already diversified to include residential and condominium properties that are communities with a higher standard of living. It begins with a strong foundation brought about by the patron saint from which the company was named after - Saint Joseph, the carpenter.

Philips LED: A Glimpse of the Future in Lighting Innovation

Wazzup Pilipinas!

They are saying that Philips is set to revolutionize the landscape of lighting with innovation concepts that are a glimpse of the future. And so we were given a brief experience of the possibilities of what the future of lighting holds through Philips remarkable presentation during their LED product launch held at the Blue Leaf Events Place located in McKinley Bonifacio Global City.

The event initiated in total darkness. Well..not really total darkness...but I thought so until I remeber that I forgot to take off my shades. I came in late so when I was led to a room, I saw mostly darkness but I can see that there were people all around watching a video presentation. They are only seen because of the light coming from the video screen.

Then I heard a familiar voice. The voice of Gabe Mercado, one of my favorite comedians and now a member of SPIT - a group that does improv - but that's another story. He was discussing everything that we needed to know in a  subtly humorous way. It was all about the latest innovations from Philips - who I believe now leads in the lighting industry through amazing innovations that goes beyond merely lighting dark rooms or streets.

Now lighting becomes more than just to illuminate with Philips. It is now a way of life, a lifestyle, an experience that sets the mood, a collaboration with other materials and technology that goes beyond the boundaries of what is normal. It elevates the thinking of men into becoming more creative and experimental.

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Canada is a hot bed of pop music activity. Justin Bieber, Avril Lavigne and Alanis Morrisette are just some of the big names to have come from the big country up north and this proves that Canadians can pump out great sounding world pop. That's why it's with great anticipation that we're holding our breath for one Elise Estrada.

Dubbed as the “Canadian Pop Princess,” Elise is a singer-songwriter-performer with a string of number one hits to her name. Her music videos are bombastic audio-visual experiences and best of all, Elise has got Pinoy blood pumping in her veins. This foxy Filipina-Canadian had an amazing debut back in 2008 when her album and its title-track “Insatiable” hit number one at the Canadian Billboard pop charts. Her streak continued with another top ten hit in “These Three Words,” before hitting the top again with the R&B tinged pop track “Unlove You.”

Elise has since been nominated for the Juno (Canadian Grammy) Award for “Best R&B Soul Album,” and has aced prestigious nods like the “Emerging Artist Award,” “Best New Artist,” and has over 40,000 airplay spins on FM radio for “Insatiable” alone. Over the course of two R&B inflected dance albums, Elise has produced a total of ten Top Ten hits. She has also shared the stage with Lady Gaga, Rihanna, 50 Cent, Sean Kingston, Nelly and The Backstreet Boys, making good on the monicker given her as the “Rihanna Of Canada.”
