Now that the rainy season is in full swing, the need for clean, healthy air at home is bigger than ever. Insufficient ventilation, tropical humidity, coupled with the quick weather and temperature changes, are all ingredients that can lead to a damp, moldy environment where bacteria can thrive. To help combat this, LG has innovated a revolutionary AirCare system designed to deliver clean and pure air to residential homes.
The LG AirCare Complete System works by providing multiple levels of air purification, filtration, and cleaning. The first layer is the Safe Plus Pre-Filter, which traps big dust particles right from the get-go. Next is the Ultrafine Dust Remover, which filters finer dust, removing 99.9% of PM 0.1 size ultrafine dust up to a coverage area of 29㎡. The next line of defense is the Allergy Filter, which removes allergy-causing substances, such as house dust mites, floating in the air. The next feature is the most innovative one. UVnanoTM technology removes 99.99% of bacteria with UV LED light to keep the wind-generating fan clean and fresh. Finally, there’s an Auto Cleaning phase that automatically dries any moisture inside the air conditioner to ensure it's always clean. No moisture, no breeding ground for bacteria.
LG air-conditioners use the AirCare Complete System in order to provide pure air and a clean environment at home. Especially with the unpredictable weather we have in the tropics, having multiple lines of defense thanks to the AirCare Complete System helps ensure a safe bacteria-free home 24/7. The LG AirCare Complete System feature is available for deluxe and premium split type inverter air-conditioners.

Joker, the drama that won Joaquin Phoenix his Oscar acting award returns in 2024 with his Harley Quinn played by no other than Lady Gaga. The official announcement was released today by Warner Bros. Pictures and will be titled: Joker : Folie à Deux(Eng. Madness for Two).
We think that this will be a more dramatic movie on the origins of the union of the Caped Crusader's most notorious villains.
The movie is scheduled to be in theaters October 4, 2024 and will be directed by Todd Phillips.
Ingram Micro, a global technology and supply chain company, celebrated 13 years in the Philippines in its first hybrid event called 13est Workplace Ever 13th Anniversary Celebration, recently held at the Hilton Manila Grand Ballroom. The event was a commemoration of more than a decade of Filipino excellence and continued commitment to helping companies “Realize the Promise of Technology.” It also marked three straight years of recognition as one of the Best Workplaces in the Philippines by Great Place to Work®.
“This year’s anniversary celebration was extra special as it was the first time we were able to celebrate with our employees in a hybrid setting since the start of the pandemic,” shared Eric de Pedro, vice president, Global Business Services and Philippines Country Leader. “It was amazing to see the joy and energy of our employees being together in the same room and bonding in a way that is totally different from just celebrating with teammates across the laptop screen. All of us were affected by the pandemic in many ways, and as we slowly shift to Better Normal, we want to treat our employees to experiences we know they will appreciate.”
The variety show-themed, month-long celebration began in May and culminated with the hybrid anniversary celebration in June. Hosted by Robi Domingo, employees enjoyed exciting prizes and were treated to performances by Unique Salonga and OPM legend Bamboo Mañalac. Ingram Micro Philippines also launched its campaign called Greatness Anywhere, to promote their commitment to being a Great Place to Work® amidst the workplace revolution brought on by the impact of COVID-19.

“As we embrace a Better Normal mindset, our evolving workplace is defined by balancing safety, flexibility, purpose, and collaboration,” Eric quipped. “Through meaningful actions, instead of just day to day transactions, we are able to foster trust and genuine care that goes beyond the screen. We look forward to creating more new shared experiences, in the office and at home.”
As a global leader in technology and cloud solutions and the business helping power the world’s biggest technology brands, Ingram Micro has the ability to serve 90% of the global population, with sales in 200 countries covering 6 continents. The momentum continues as Ingram Micro accelerates its efforts on business transformation and digitalization, and the Manila facility plays a pivotal role in its unrelenting growth.
In addition, the Manila center recently held a four-day Career Carnival recruitment event in early July at The Peninsula Hotel, Makati City. The festival, themed recruitment expo, gathered more than 1,000 applicants from all over the Greater Manila area and neighboring provinces.
“Filipinos continue to be of great demand globally, and the success of our recent recruitment event serves as proof of Ingram Micro’s commitment to developing and promoting the Filipino talent,” said Sam White, director for HR. “It’s been 13 years since we launched our Shared Service center here in Manila, and despite the changing landscapes because of the pandemic, there are many opportunities for growth on the horizon. The post pandemic world ushers a new era, and we are more than excited to take this journey with our employees and shape the future with them.”
As the nation adapts to the new normal bit by bit, people are slowly embracing a fresh start. Some people started new job opportunities, while some took the leap and started their own business in the middle of the pandemic. Some saw the birth of new families and new, bigger responsibilities. As people adjust to their new situations across the nation, we see the birth of new beginnings and how they can be the start of something amazing.
To celebrate this fresh start, LG will be holding another iteration of its widely successful Life’s Good Festival, which will run from August 5 to October 31, 2022.
A wide selection from LG’s product range will have special discounts and free services such as installation. Each purchase of a participating product from authorized dealers will be eligible to join the Life’s Good raffle where over one million Pesos in LG products will be given away. This includes a 55” LG OLED TV C1, a 24 cu. Ft. LG Instaview Door-in-Door Refrigerator, 19kg LG TurboWash 3D Top Load Washing Machine, 1.0HP LG DUALCOOL with Dual Inverter Split Air Conditioner, and more.
There will be a total of four raffle draws, with the first happening on September 5, the second on October 5, the third on November 5, and the final grand draw on December 2.
Who would have thought that on the other side of the world, Filipino-blood is already making its mark in the music scene, at the same time when the likes of The Beatles, Led Zeppelin and more are dominating the industry? Fil-Am band "Fanny" that consist of June and Jean Millington started an all-female band that has broken the male-dominated music category with their unique music and perfomance style that captured the audience from US to London. A full length documentary Fanny: The Right to Rock chronicles the life of Fanny that will be shown in theaters this September 7.
Growing up in a period where discrimination is rampant, June and Jean fell victims of criticism and outcast while in California. But it didn't stop them to pursue and use their talent in making music and enjoy their youth. As many music artists experience, they had their share of ups and lows, especially trying to get in a scene where it was mostly men runs it, and it was a challenge to be known and to stay in the limelight. It is a wonderful achievement that icons acknowledge them and call them an inspiration as the first all-female rock band.
There are even heavier challenges that faced the band. Rejection, family duties and paralyzing instances that stopped their performances when the fame is starting to go up. But as they said, when doors close, windows will be opened, and they found the opportunity to revive the music. We will all learn from Fanny that everything is not too late and just grab every opportunity that comes your way.
Fast forward to the present, as the members get older, they had doubts of going back again. It is a great help when bigger names like David Bowie acknowledged their presence in the music scene and regarded them as one of the most important bands. He said, “One of the most important female bands in American rock has been buried without a trace." And they are. They are not even known here in the country they're from, maybe aside if you've been in the US or London during the 70s.
“One of the most important female bands in American rock has been buried without a trace." - David Bowie
The reunion is really exciting especially for the new audience like me who is able to know their background. Fanny: The Right to Rock is a beautiful story that your lolas or titas could sit down with you while they're talking about their young, vulnerable and fun life -- which you can learn a lot from. The movie will introduce you to more realities and teach lots of lessons, especially in life. The name could be forgotten, but the legacy and lessons will live on.
Fanny: The Right to Rock is distributed by TBA Studios. The one-and-a-half hour documentary also features Def Leppard's Joe Elliott, Bonnie Raitt, The Go-Go's Kathy Valentine, Todd Rundgren, The Runaways' Cherie Currie, Lovin' Spoonful's John Sebastian, The B52's Kate Pierson, Charles Neville, David Bowie guitarist and bassist Earl Slick and Gail Ann Dorsey, and other music icons. Watch the trailer below:
A film based on the book of Kotaro Isaka, Bullet Train gives a wonderful and energetic ride that takes us into a high-speed tour of emotions as well. You can't make a full stop as Brad Pitt and his co-stars present an explosive movie set in modern day Japan.
Ladybug (Brad Pitt) hopes to make a peaceful ride inside the bullet train but accidentally gets on collision with determined assassins with connected and conflicting objectives.
The most similar movie I can think of Bullet Train is Kill Bill by Quentin Tarantino. It doesn't hold back on showing the slices, gunshots and blood that almost get out of the screen. But David Leitch assures you that there'll be more. What I love about the movie is that it's injected with dark humor and unexpected twists that you will be hooked from start to finish. Glad that Brad Pitt, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Joey King, Brian Tyree-Henry and more pulled of jokes and sinister banters that earns them love and compassion from the audience, at least for me. While I knew that Brad leads the movie, the other characters are lovable to hate.
Colors are so neon almost hypnotizing you to like the movie more aside from giving authentic Japanese vibes. Hot pink, lemon yellow and all you can associate a real Tokyo visual would probably present. Kudos to the production designer for doing a great job.
Bullet Train offers more surprises while it gives great action. There are also cameos that you wouldn't expect to be included which added to the flair that makes it unforgettable. You can't afford a blink of an eye when it's released in theaters August 10, 2022.
