SYNERGY: 3rd Electrical and Electronics Engineering Summit 2014

Wazzup Pilipinas!

The University of the Philippines Engineering Radio Guild presents SYNERGY: Electrical and Electronics Engineering Summit 2014, an event now stepping up its version of challenges specially designed for students in Electrical and Electronics Engineering (EEE) courses.

On its third year, SYNERGY brings with it a four-day gathering for future engineers to showcase their skills and intellect. SYNERGY will go beyond learning concepts and exploring theories acquired from the academe. With speakers from trending companies in the technology industry, students also build the career vision and skill potential they acquired from their interest and key studies. The event focuses on professional development and its potential in improving the country.

SYNERGY is composed of five major events, namely, Techno Talk, Ingenious Ideas, Revolutionary Robotics, Dynamic Discourse, and Corporate Connection.

Techno Talk is comprised of three short talks in which distinguished speakers will talk about the current and upcoming trends and innovations in the academe, industry, and government scenes for Electrical and Electronics Engineering.

In Ingenious Ideas, students are encouraged to think out of the box by solving scenarios or questions in the allotted time frame related to topics presented in Techno Talk.

Competing schools are also tasked to build a classic line-follower robot which they will then modify throughout the contest to fit the track to be used in Revolutionary Robotics. This event is in collaboration with E-Gizmo Mechatronix Central, Philippine Electronics and Robotics Enthusiasts Club, and ThinkLab.

Teddy's Bigger Burgers: Bigger and Better Reasons for the Gatecrasher?

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Let's do the "shaka" and greet everyone "Aloha."  Hang loose and get ready to grab an order of burger. But I don't mean just any ordinary burger. It has to be a very special burger that even I will do anything just to dine in and have some bun... I mean fun. Or so they think?

Teddy's Bigger Burger must be something to rave about since there has been rampant news of bloggers gatecrashing the media launch of Teddy's Bigger Burgers Philippines strategically located at Greenbelt 3 of Makati city. I don't know if that was true since knobody bothered to find out the real story behind it. They probably couldn't resist the oozing sumptuousness of Teddy's monstrous patties that are a lot bigger but definitely tastier than most "langhap-sarap" of "clowned" burgers out there... and shockingly even bigger than the buns.

Accomplished businessmen and restaurateurs Raymond Magdaluyo, along with Marvin Agustin and Ricky Laudico are the owners of Teddy's Bigger Burgers PH. This will surely be another big hit for the three wise men who are probably overwhelmed already with all the incoming profits they've been getting from their many restaurant chains. Raymond was the only one present among the three partners but the others did appeared during the VIP night last Friday, a day before the grand opening.

Yeah! Filipinos really do love to eat making the restaurant business among the best businesses next to running a school, a religion or a government.
