Great Deals, Great Finds at Lazada Philippines!

I have always enjoyed online shopping since it saves me the time and the effort in going to the store. I also find myself getting great deals online which are otherwise not available or not offered in-store. In the Philippines, it is a good thing that there is now an online shopping store that carries a variety of products, from techie gadgets to fashion clothing to household goods. 

I am talking about Online Shopping Manila, an online store that practically has about everything (except for food items). They have got lots of great deals on offer like the MasterCard Mondays, in which customers get an additional 10% discount on their orders if they use their MasterCard debit or credit cards. They also have the Super Hourly Deals in which selected items are put on sale every hour. For the techie customer, there is the 7 Inch Tablet Madness where various Android tablets are on offer at discounts of up to 43%. Get your own Haipad Tablet for as low as Php3,189.00. The New Haipad Anaconda Edition 7" Android 4.0 Dual Cam 4GB with Wifi (White), for example has Android 4.0 OS, 4GB ROM, a 1.2GHz processor, a dual camera and has a MicroSD slot for an extra memory of up to 32GB.

A Place To Call Your Own in Calgary

I have a number of friends who are now based in Canada. Some for work, some to study, some to build a family of their own, some left everything behind to start anew, some to follow and fulfill their dreams. But no matter what their reasons, I know that they are happy with their choice and their life today, slowly fulfilling their dreams of a good life and a happy home.

I wonder if it is difficult to start a new life in Canada. Being an expat myself, I know what the challenges are if you uproot yourself to start all over again in a foreign land. With a different culture and environment, I know it can be very tasking to find a place to settle in. But all of these are made a little bit easier by cyberspace, with different services making themselves known on the internet, like this site where one can search houses for sale in Calgary.  

I find the website easy to navigate, with everything in one page - you just need to scroll up and down. Or if you are not a fan of the scroll button, there's also an option to just click on the menu links to get to the desired page. They also have a mobile app available on iOS and Android so you can also search for houses even when on the go, right at the palm of your hand. It also serves as a navigation app so it points you to the right direction when you want to have a look at the property and the neighborhood. There is also a page where they provide tips and advice on house buying and selling, among others. I am no stranger to real estate search sites and I find this one unique in its own way. If you are looking for a house for sale in Calgary or are even thinking of selling your property, this site could be the right place for you.

Radiall Connects

Today, we enjoy the comforts provided by technology: television, internet, computers, mobile and smart phones to name a few. These devices have interconnect components in them that allow us to enjoy what we call "interactive mobility". Thanks to companies that produce such components, and who are continuing to develop technology that will benefit not only industries, but also medical technology, aerospace, defense and telecommunication.

I was browsing through the newly launced website of Radiall, a global company that innovates interconnect components and more, at www.radiall.com and was immediately impressed by the clean, blue theme and the easily navigable pages. I also love their company motto: "Our Most Important Connection is With You.", which is visible in every page of the website. It gets the message across that people are important in their business process.

A new feature of the website that is very helpful to the customers is the Product Tools which helps the users or customers find products and specifications, allows them to build their own unique part according to  specifications, find replacements for parts, and download information.

Radiall has a wide variety of interconnect components that cater to a wide spectrum of customers. Their innovation and commitment to quality has enabled them to provide customers with reliable products like antennas, fiber optics, microwave components, multipin connectors, RF cable assemblies, RF coaxial connectors, RF & microwave switches, and space qualified components.

Triple Fret

Let me introduce to you a friend and classmate of mine in high school. Her name is Jenny de Vera. She is cool, she is talented, she is very gifted when it comes to music. Back in our high school days, she can already play the guitar very well, playing popular songs even without a guide. I guess the term to use is "kapa", which means the ability to play the same tune just by listening to it. I was more impressed with her ability with the guitar now that she has become a professional classical guitarist. I haven't seen her perform live yet but from her videos on the internet, I can say that she has really matured and perfected the art of classical guitar.

Jenny and her guitar. From Jenny's Facebook Timeline cover page. 

She recently performed at the Pasinaya 2012 at the  CCP Little Theater with her group, Triple Fret, a trio guitar ensemble. I am happy to learn that their performance was a success.

Triple Fret. I love the name... It has a certain ring to it. What is it? From their Facebook About Page: "Triple Fret is an all girl classical guitar trio composed of Catherine Belle, Marga Abejo and Jenny de Vera. The group was formed in October 2011. They play classical guitar trio pieces as well as solo classical guitar pieces that are dynamic in genre and time period."

I would love to come to one of her solo or band performances if the opportunity comes. My husband, who is also a classical guitar enthusiast, would surely enjoy their performance too. Maybe she can give him lessons too... Pde bang at reduced fees ang lessons Jen?

For those who love and appreciate classical guitar, you might want to watch Triple Fret or Jenny perform live. Watch out for their future performances via their Facebook Page at https://www.facebook.com/triplefret3 or send them an email at triplefretguitar@gmail.com for bookings and more info.
