The New Electrolux Ease C4 vacuum cleaner: designed for effortless clean

New features and an ergonomic design make the latest vacuum cleaner from Electrolux your effortless cleaning partner. The Electrolux Ease C4 offers a double cyclone technology, higher capacity and accessories to make cleaning a breeze!

The global pioneer in vacuum cleaners, Swedish brand Electrolux has released a new vacuum cleaner that makes cleaning effortless. Efficient performance, a huge capacity and stylish design combine to make the Electrolux Ease C4 an ideal cleaning partner.   

Coming in a neat denim blue color, the Ease C4 boasts a double step cyclone technology that deals with dust efficiently, separating large particles from fine dust. This means a deeper clean in less time and reduces the need to replace filters so often. It also has adjustable suction power when you’ve moved to finer cleaning like getting rid of dust on shelves, counters, couches and more.

The new Ease C4 comes with more capacity – its dust container can store 1.8 liters so it requires emptying less often. This bagless vacuum cleaner has a single button release feature to carefully dispose your dust easily. 

The Ease C4’s ergonomic design also makes cleaning effortless in other ways. It’s got a rubber grip on the handle making it easier to carry around anywhere and comes with large seamless rotary wheels for better stability and maneuverability around your home. 

The Electrolux Ease C4 comes with a number of brush accessories to suit different cleaning needs. 

This includes a choice of telescopic or non-telescopic nozzle, the upholster nozzle with a lint-catching fabric that captures dust from sofas, chairs, mattresses and soft furnishing and the Combination Crevice with brush with a thin design ideal for cleaning narrow and hard to reach areas.

While brooms and dustpan are the most common cleaning equipment found in most households, a vacuum cleaner makes cleaning much faster and easier as it has longer reach than a broom and a larger capacity container for litter. This makes it more efficient for cleaning multiple rooms at once. The vacuum cleaner also has accessories that allows it to clean upholstery and curtains, making it a very versatile cleaning tool.  

Vacuum cleaners are also more effective in removing dust and allergens. If you have carpeting, kids who are sensitive to dust, have allergies, or if you have pets at home, a vacuum cleaner can be your best friend in removing allergens and stray pet hair. It also has the added bonus of helping to improve the air quality of your home. With its filtration system, it traps dust particles and removes allergens for an improved indoor air quality and allergen-free home. 

A top-notch quality vacuum cleaner like the Electrolux Ease C4 Vacuum Cleaner can transform your space into a clean, inviting, appealing and fresh haven. Check it out in leading appliance centers nationwide.

Globe Studios’ films nominated at the 42nd Gawad Urian Awards

Globe Studios’ films “Ang Panahon ng Halimaw” and “Hintayan ng Langit” recently earned nominations at the 42nd Gawad Urian Awards, to be held at the UPFI (UP Film Institute) Film Center in Quezon City on June 18.

Nominated for Best Director were Lav Diaz, for his outstanding directorial job in “Ang Panahon ng Halimaw,” while veteran thespian Eddie Garcia earned a Best Actor nomination for his role as Manolo in “Hintayan ng Langit.”

It is another notable recognition for Globe Studios, who continue to co-produce outstanding creative film, television and online content.

“Ang Panahon ng Halimaw” (Season of the Devil) is the latest brilliant product of Diaz, a 4-hour epic which stars Piolo Pascual (Hugo) and Shaina Magdayao (Lorena). The film mixed Diaz’s usual ascetic aesthetics with powerful dialogues set in unaccompanied live “rock opera” fashion, a story told amid a late 1970s society that reeked with authoritarianism, repression and violence.

The movie also recently won the Grand Jury Prize for Best Picture at the recently concluded 67th FAMAS (Filipino Academy of Movie Arts and Sciences), its second after bagging Best Film in the Gems section of the 58th Festival Internacional de Cine Cartagena de Indias last year. It also competed for the Golden Bear award in the Main Competition section of the 68th Berlin International Film Festival.

“Hintayan ng Langit,” helmed by acclaimed writer Juan Miguel Severo (“On the Wings of Love” and “The Hows of Us”) is about a recently deceased Manolo (Eddie Garcia) who got reunited with his ex-girlfriend Lisang, played by another veteran actress, Gina Pareño in, of all places, purgatory.

Loc&Stor 24/7: When you let go of things that “do not spark joy”

Does your home “spark joy”?

If you find it necessary to rent storage lockers because you dont have enough room for your belongings.  Then Loc&Stor 24/7 is for you.

Whether you’re a pack rat or a compulsive declutterer, you must have heard of Marie Kondo, the Japanese home organizing guru that bids her followers to let go of things that “do not spark joy.” 

Kondo’s method spurs you to comb through your stuff, saving only those that make you happy and disposing of the rest. “Keep only those things that speak to your heart,” Kondo gently urges homeowners.

While a growing number of Filipinos are letting Marie Kondo ‘take the lead’ in tidying up their messy, disorganized living spaces, there is a far greater number for whom sentiments and pleasant memories outweigh the need to create more space at home. 

What if there are too many mementos, collectibles, and other cherished possessions that spark joy, but there is just not enough space in your home?

Loc&Stor 24/7, now with four branches—Pasig, Urban Makati, J.P. Rizal, and SLEX—gives you the extra space you need in the form of individually secured units that come in different sizes. Every storage unit has individual alarms and storers use their own personal locks to ensure privacy. 

To cap all security measures, Loc&Stor 24/7 facilities are located in gated and flood-free compounds with 24/7 building security and full CCTV coverage. You can organize the items in your storage unit using shelves and containers for easy access.

So you have treasured stuff you just can’t let go? As Mari Kondo asserts, “We should be choosing what we want to keep, not what we want to get rid of.” 

And Loc&Stor 24/7 gives everyone a chance to do just that.

For inquiries on rental fees and more vital information, visit their website at www.locnstor247.com, or connect through social media on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. 

You may also contact one of Loc&Stor’s facilities to know more—Pasig at 570-2561, Urban Makati at 810-9556, JP Rizal Makati at 0917 709 5390, or SLEX at 0917 709 5836.

One Ginebra Nation: Ginebra San Miguel’s 185th anniversary

Growing up, there was always a Ginebra San Miguel in our house because of my tatay and my brothers who made it part of almost every celebration, and like I posted before, we were also big fans of the Ginebra team, so in a way I guess we've always been part of Barangay Ginebra. But I never thought that Gin had such a rich history behind it. 

Did you know that the famous bilog and kwatro kantos has been around for almost 2 centuries? It all began in 1834.  

The story of Ginebra San Miguel is the story of a drinking culture that began on March 10, 1834. From its humble beginnings in a small distillery in Quiapo, Manila, Ginebra San Miguel, the first-ever gin in the Philippines, was initially produced to cater to the affluent and colonial elite who stayed on in Manila and later shared with other wealthy Filipinos. Back then, Ginebra San Miguel was bottled in 20-liter glass jars wrapped in rattan weave called the dama juana.

The brand, already an award winner as early as the late 19th century, became the most sought-after liquor drink by Filipinos. As Ginebra San Miguel grew in demand, it also became more affordable to the working class Filipino when it was bottled in 1 liter glass containers called the frasco.

Along with modernization and improvements in production technology, Ginebra San Miguel introduced in the 1950s the image of St. Michael the Archangel vanquishing the devil, painted by Fernando Amorsolo (who would become the first National Artist), in its Bilog and Kwatro Kantos bottles.

Since its creation, Ginebra San Miguel has been a witness to the changes that shaped and defined the Philippines. It has withstood the test of time, the challenges of war, the transitions of governments, and even technological developments. Ginebra San Miguel evolved from being a drink of the elite to winning the hearts and taste buds of the masses. Today, Ginebra San Miguel is considered as one of the country’s most respected and iconic brands and has become part of Philippine history, culture and tradition.

Filipinos celebrated Ginebra San Miguel’s 185th anniversary this year as One Ginebra Nation – a celebration highlighted on World Gin Day last June 7, 2019, at Seda Vertis North, Quezon City. The event was graced by the legend Senator Robert Jaworski, Ginebra San Miguel Calendar Girl, Miss Universe 2015 Pia Wurtzbach, GSM Blue endorser, actress/singer Sue Ramirez and GSM Premium Gin ambassador, comedian/writer Alex Calleja. 

When you say gin in the Philippines, only one brand comes to mind: Ginebra San Miguel.  Wherever you are, whatever your status, whether celebrating milestones or unwinding at the end of the day, it has become part of the Filipino’s way of life.

Perhaps this is because Ginebra San Miguel represents more than a drink. It is a testament to the passion, perseverance and the unwavering spirit of the people it has served for almost two centuries.

A Celebration 185 Years in the Making



As a brand patronized for more than nine generations, Filipinos celebrated Ginebra San Miguel’s 185th anniversary this year as One Ginebra Nation – a celebration highlighted on World Gin Day last June 7, 2019, at Seda Vertis North, Quezon City.

True to its One Ginebra Nation theme, the event featured food and special gin cocktails prepared with ingredients from Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao. Chef Rolando Laudico created sumptuous dishes to pair perfectly with the gin concoctions of top mixologists.

Ginebra San Miguel Calendar Girl, Miss Universe 2015 Pia Wurtzbach, GSM Blue endorser, actress/singer Sue Ramirez and GSM Premium Gin ambassador, comedian/writer Alex Calleja prepared elevated Ginebra San Miguel drink mixes with the world-class mixologists.

Kalel Demetrio paid tribute to Luzon with his Beautiful With A Heart gin concoction, made with Kamias juice and Blue Sampaguita spritz. Enzo Lim created the Carabao Cocktail that highlighted the sweet Mangoes of Visayas. Mindanao’s Tablea and Durian was mixed beautifully in Icy Mariñas’ Shalalala.

While everyone enjoyed the free-flowing gin cocktails and delicious food, the highlight of the night was a musical spectacle chronicling the 185 years of Ginebra San Miguel.  Directed by award-winning director Rommel Ramilo and starring Miss Saigon alumnus, Gerald Santos, the venue was transformed into a theater and the guests were treated to outstanding performances showcasing Ginebra San Miguel in the different periods of Philippine history. Adding excitement to the program, the brand endorsers surprised the crowd with their participation in the show.





One Ginebra Nation

Throughout this 185-year journey, Ginebra San Miguel has certainly been there in good and bad times, being one with the people.

“Ginebra San Miguel mirrors the resilience and the never-say-die spirit of the Filipinos. As the pioneering gin in the Philippines, we take pride in its legacy because the story of Ginebra San Miguel is the story of the Filipino people,” said Ron C. Molina, Ginebra San Miguel Marketing Manager.

The World Gin Day festivity was just the beginning of the One Ginebra Nation Tour. Gin lovers can look forward to promos and special Ginebra San Miguel packages in selected bars nationwide and by checking out www.oneginebranation.com. Moreover, be on the lookout for the One Ginebra Nation Truck touring the country with special treats.

For 185 Years, Ginebra San Miguel has been with the Filipino people no matter what. Today, across the nation, we toast as One Ginebra Nation.

Real-life bonding moments with MayWard

 Teen stars Maymay Entrata and Edward Barber, popularly known as MayWard, are among the busiest young stars in showbiz today. 

With TV series and a lot of projects in the pipeline, free time is a luxury for the phenomenal love team. What’s a day like for MayWard?

“On most days, we’re on set or on location shooting,” Edward shared. “We spend long hours at work, away from our families. So, we really make the most of whatever downtime we get.” As an online gaming enthusiast, Edward likes to play during break times, and tries to teach Maymay as well. 

For her part, Maymay enjoys binge-watching fashion, make-up and runway video blogs. In fact, she’s applying some of those tricks to her own runway skills in real life. 

She said, “Minsan when online, yun na yung ‘me’ time namin kapag nasa shooting o nasa trabaho. Tapos siyempre kapag may break, ‘yun na rin ‘yung time namin para tumawag sa family at friends kasi lagi kaming malayo sa kanila.”

Digitally savvy as they are, MayWard makes sure to keep a balance between their online activities and nurturing their real-life relationships. “We definitely enjoy our digital lifestyle, it’s part of who we are and what we do,” Edward said. “But we also enjoy hanging out with our friends and loved ones. It’s all about balancing your time online and offline.”

“Malaking bagay ‘yung internet lalo na kung long distance ‘yung relationship mo sa family at friends pero ibang bagay pa rin ‘yung quality time na magkasama kayo,” Maymay furthered. 

Aside from their showbiz engagements, the teen idols are also brand ambassadors of PLDT Home WiFi—the telco leader’s prepaid broadband service. It’s the ideal home internet solution for young netizens like MayWard because you only load it when you need it and there are no lock-in periods, monthly charges or bill shock from uncontrolled data usage. 

As brand ambassadors for PLDT Home WiFi,MayWard  reminds their fans to make the most out of their internet connection by sharing it with their family and using it for important online activities such as schoolwork or weekend bonding with the family. 

Edward noted, “Make sure you have real-life bonding moments with your loved ones and use your data wisely. When you buy a Home Prepaid WiFi device, you get free 10GB data which you can use for school or for online activities you do for fun.”

When it comes to maximizing data, his advice is to make sure that data-consuming mobile settings are turned off. “Check your auto-refresh and auto-play settings so you can save your data for videos that you really want to watch. And if possible, watch in SD instead of HD to save data,” he said. 

With PLDT Home WiFi, you can also manage your data usage by checking your balance and usage. To check the balance, just connect to your PLDT Home Wifi and visit pldthome.com/homewifiload. 

Maymay concluded, “Sa experience namin ni Edward, mas nasusulit mo ang data kapag alam mo kung pa’no i-balance ang paggamit nito. Halimbawa, sa PLDT Home WiFi, pwede ka mag-log in sa dashboard to check your balance para laging sakto sa data at sa budget.” 

The PLDT Home WiFi is available at all PLDT Stores and retailers nationwide for a one-time payment of Php1,995. It already comes with free 10GB of data valid for seven days.
