<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Around the globe, holidays means parties everywhere which also equates to frequent sleep deprivation</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">not to mention increased alcohol intake for some and the bad effects of second hand smoke for others.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">All these factors contribute to lower immune system and this might not be a good match for the</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">opposed to the acidity of a regular vitamin C.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><u><br /></u></b></span>

<span style="color: #262626;">There is no question as to the growth prospect or the inevitable adoption of e-commerce in the Philippines.

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #262626;">The founders of BigBenta believe the micro, small and medium enterprises (MSME) will be the foundation of e-commerce in the Philippines and not the large companies. Though the MSME segment presents some challenges, BigBenta understands each and everyone of them and believes that it has the solutions and operational experiences to address them one step at a time, efforts which will eventually translate to its success in the Philippine market.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #262626;">Hence, BigBenta has developed an approach that defines its current commercial and technical initiatives. Commercial initiatives such as a sales & marketing approach that is customer-driven, responsive, prudent, evolving, and patient in solving customer problems. These attributes are what the market requires at the moment. Technical initiatives such as an in-house and open source platform development, instead of deploying an over-the-counter or an outsourced platform, suited for a local market that needs customized, innovative, and evolving solutions.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #262626;">About a year ago, BigBenta launched its Classified Ads service. It was intended to give the local market an alternative to the dominant player as well as build its own presence in the local online market. The market for online classified ads has since intensified among the players, but it has also generated the right interest among the older population, which reinforces the message that Internet will be part of everyone’s life more and more.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #262626;"> </span><span style="color: #262626; font-family: inherit;">Around March of 2016, the company launched its online store called “BigBenta Store” where now, close to a hundred merchants have set up their online store and STARTED SELLING to anyone nationwide. BigBenta Store is the manifestation of the company’s belief and support for the micro, small and medium enterprises (MSME).</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #262626;">The major difference of BigBenta Store from the competitors is it allows the merchants (Storeowners) to create their own online store based on their preferences like items to sell, its varieties (e.g. color, sizes, etc.), inventory level, pricing, PROMOTION rules, payment method, customer management, report management and many more. The online store will soon be equipped with features like chat, abandoned cart management, customer survey, and complaint management that are all designed to put the storeowners in control of their online store and everything that happens in it. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #262626;">To complete BigBenta Marketplace, the company officially launched its 3<sup>rd</sup> platform, BigBenta Service Booking this month. In terms of its full range of offerings, BigBenta Marketplace stands as truly one-of-a-kind having three platforms, built to respond to the needs of Filipino customers and entrepreneurs.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #262626;"> </span><span style="color: #262626; font-family: inherit;">BigBenta Service Bookings allows any skilled individual (a.k.a. Service Provider or SP) to directly offer their services based on their preferred location, time, work scope and rate charges. Likewise, customers can also specify, browse and choose their preferred service provider using a variety of criteria. Most services offered are blue collar in nature (e.g. plumbers, electrician, tutors, masseuse, beauticians, etc.) while there are also some professional services available like bookkeeping, accountancy, events management, and others.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #262626;">BigBenta Service Booking was developed to provide additional income to service providers outside their full-time or daytime jobs, while giving them full flexibility based on their available schedule and place of residence. The major difference of BigBenta Service BOOKING COMPARED to competition is its positioning that is geared towards individual service providers rather than service companies or agencies. For the customer, this means that prices are lower, service duration is flexible (e.g. hourly, half-day, whole day, per call, etc.), and scope of services is equally varied. For as long as a service provider can do it, he or she can offer it, in her own terms.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #262626;">BigBenta Marketplace and its entire service portfolio will soon be available on mobile (Android and iOS). To prevent fraud, fake items and persons with character issues from offering their services in BigBenta Store and BigBenta Service Booking, the company implements an authentication and verification (A&V) process to all its storeowners and service providers on an annual basis. Every product item and service being offered including its purchase and booking are screened and verified by BigBenta’s customer support, all done to protect the customers.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

triumphs going for Diane Ventura’s first feature-length film, </span><i style="font-family: Cambria, serif;">Mulat (Awaken)</i><span style="font-family: Cambria, serif;">, its genre-bending
narrative style and the ace performances of its actors perhaps take the cake. Chief
in this long list are its two lead actors—Jake Cuenca (who plays the morose
Jake) and Ryan Eigenmann (who is dynamite as Vince)—both of whom effectively
quash any preconceived notions viewers may have of their abilities due to their
notoriety in more mass-leaning vehicles. Newcomer Loren Burgos is also not to
be shrugged off, and it is her impassioned turn as Sam, in equal doses forceful
and vulnerable, which serves as the movie’s anchor. Supporting cast members
such as the sparring couple of Logan Goodchild (Logan) and Candy Pangilinan
(Cathy), as well as theater mainstay Madeleine Nicolas (Sam’s mom), also
deserve kudos.</span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;">But let’s
not kid ourselves here: Ventura’s material is topnotch, and it is our good
fortune that she is adamant in presenting things, well, differently. What in
lesser hands will be a straightforward three-way love story gets a shot in the
arm with the young director at the helm. What we have instead in <i>Mulat</i> is a psychological thriller, a
time-hopping mystery, and a perspective-rich romance rolled into one, where
linearity is challenged and logic is refashioned. Some may view it as
difficult, but any worthwhile experiment is worth some work. And the critics
agree: <i>Mulat</i> is worth laboring over.
Since its global debut a while back, Ventura has bagged<b> </b>Best Director for Global Feature<b>, </b>while Jake Cuenca took home Best Actor at the<b> </b>International Film Festival Manhattan 2015. The film also won </span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;">Best Narrative
Feature at the World Cinema Festival in Brazil, where Cuenca once again snagged
Best Actor honors. <i>Mulat</i> was also
given the “A” rating by the Cinema Evaluation Board. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

to come. Another psychological vehicle, the short film is yet another triumph
in less-is-more craftsmanship, and it approached weighty issues (rape, abuse,
sexuality, psychoanalysis) with deft hands. A new trailer for said film, which
got a G rating from the MTRCB after initially being deemed unfit for public
viewing, will also be shown in local screenings of <i>Mulat</i>. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Meralco, the country’s leading power distribution company, recently announced another rate reduction for its residential subscribers this October 2016. Subscribers will enjoy a <b>12-centavo rate reduction per kilowatt hour</b>(kWh); for average households with 200 kWh energy consumption per month, this means <b>Php 24.00 off the monthly bill</b>.<u></u><u></u></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Meralco mentioned that the recent rate reduction was caused by lower generation and transmission charges.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">This good news comes in the wake of the encouraging results of the latest International Energy Consultants (IEC) Survey. The Australian consulting firm specializing in Asian power markets showed in a recently released survey that lower tariffs for Meralco over the last four years have closed the power-rate gap between Luzon and other countries.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">The IEC observed that lower fuel costs have significantly contributed to the lower energy rates that we enjoyed this year. Since August 2016, <b>Meralco has announced lower power rates for its residential subscribers</b>.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Dr. John Morris, the IEC survey’s proponent, also mentioned that a more efficient sourcing strategy by Meralco, lower distribution charges, and lower system loss played major roles in bringing power costs down for Meralco subscribers. Morris noted that Meralco subscribers were able to <b>save a total of P30 billion in energy</b> <b>costs</b>because of these three factors.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Thanks for the back-to-back good news, Meralco!</span></div>

Arkeo Films’ newest production <i>Apocalypse Child</i> continues to receive acclaim as it is the latest Filipino film to receive a grade of A from the Cinema Evaluation Board (CEB). The grade entitles the movie, which opens in cinemas on October 26, to get a 100-percent tax rebate.<u></u><u></u></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i>Apocalypse Child</i> tells the story of Baler-based surfing instructor Ford (played by Sid Lucero) who is supposed to be the son of a famous American director. One summer, this often-told tale comes to fore as the instructor’s childhood friend Rich, now Congressman of Baler (played by RK Bagatsing), has pulled strings for the director to acknowledge Ford. Chona (Ana Abad Santos), the mother of Ford, is ecstatic. This development comes at a time when Rich is engaged to be married to Serena (Gwen Zamora), and Sid has a romantic affair with a young Fil-Am tourist Fiona (Annicka Dolonius).<u></u><u></u></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The Cinema Evaluation Board’s summation noted the excellence of the ensemble cast. The CEB said, “Aside from Lucero, also a standout was Gwen Zamora, leagues away from her ‘Bubble Gang’ persona as she evokes a simmering sexiness… The support was also very good, from RK Bagatsing… to Ana Abad Santos as Frod’s mom… to Annicka Dolonius and Archie Alemania in their respective depictions of wasted but still hopeful youth.”<u></u><u></u></div>

The Board hailed the film’s production values. It described the editing as “sufficiently contained,” the cinematography as “imaginative,” and the music by Armi Millare of the band Up Dharma Down as “apt as it captured well the melancholic surf vibe.” The CEB praised the production design by artist Christina Dy for maximizing the scenic locale “to the hilt.”<u></u><u></u></div>

The members of the CEB also gave kudos to director-writer Mario Cornejo and co-writer-producer Monster Jimenez. The summation made a reference to the duo’s previous work, the 2005 Cinemalaya film “Big Time,” when it stated, “It is films like (<i>Apocalypse Child</i>) that remind us that there is always a fresh way of telling a story, and like the director’s maiden project with Monster Jimenez, <i>Big Time</i>, it is a potential sleeper and helps keep the indie spirit alive.”<u></u><u></u></div>

<span style="line-height: 14.72px;">EastWest Bank expands its term deposit offerings with the launch of EastWest 5-Year Floating Interest Rate Time Deposit, a long-term deposit instrument with quarterly interest repricing. </span><span style="line-height: 14.72px;">Unlike with regular time deposits with fixed interest rate and interest earnings paid at maturity, depositors could benefit from rate upswings and quarterly crediting of interest earnings with EastWest’s new TD product.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 14.72px;">A depositor parking funds in a plain vanilla time deposit account will earn a fixed rate throughout the duration of the term. With EastWest 5-Year Floating Interest Rate Time Deposit, interest is repriced quarterly based on the one-month weighted average accepted yield of the Term Deposit Auction Facility of the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas; as such, interest earnings will be higher if the applicable interest rate for the next quarter goes up, and vice versa. And if the deposit is maintained to full term, this 5-Year TD product is exempted from withholding tax. In case of pre-termination, a new interest rate per quarter will be applied retroactively to the principal amount according to the number of years the account has been maintained, and will be subject to applicable charges.</span><span style="line-height: 14.72px;"><u></u><u></u></span></div>

<span style="line-height: 14.72px;">The product </span><span style="line-height: 14.72px;">suits long term investors who prefer getting their interest income regularly for the things that they need to spend for now, while keeping their principal intact for future use. </span><span style="line-height: 14.72px;">Interest earnings are paid-out quarterly to the depositor’s EastWest checking or savings account so there is regular income stream.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">

<span style="line-height: 14.72px;">A P5-million placement, for example, will be paid upwards of P30,000 in quarterly interest earnings at current rates, which the depositor can already enjoy on the first quarter of the five-year term.</span><span style="line-height: 14.72px;"><u></u><u></u></span></div>

<span lang="EN-PH" style="color: black;">Built for professional business usage, Brother ADS-2400N boasts of scan speeds of up to 60ipm (30ppm) and a large 50 sheet capacity document feeder capable of scanning 27 to 413gsm paper weights. Moreover, the ADS-2400N uses a wider output tray to neatly capture paper fed through the automatic document feeder. Paper trays are angled to encounter less paper resistance so paper can glide easily and stack smoothly, reducing paper folds.<u></u><u></u></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;">The Roku streaming platform allows users to easily stream their favorite TV shows and movies on their TV screens. It is the streaming platform with the highest engagement in the U.S. because of its diverse content offerings and user-friendly interface. Notably, Roku’s partnership with PLDT is its first streaming deal in Asia, making the Philippines the first country in the region to join the ranks of Roku’s international markets including Canada, Mexico, Europe and Australia.

Netflix continually adds new TV programs and films to the service, bringing the joy of entertainment to over 81 million members in 190 countries.

Profiles allow different members of the household to have their own personalized Netflix experience built around the films and TV programs they enjoy.

This will limit a child’s profiles to a variety of child-friendly titles they can enjoy.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><u></u><u></u></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;">The connectivity that binds the <i>Smart Home</i> is enabled by the country’s most powerful broadband, PLDT Home Fibr, which delivers the Philippines’ first and fastest Internet of up to 1 Gbps.

<span style="font-size: 12pt;">When it comes to world-class entertainment, PLDT HOME has always been at the forefront of providing subscribers with diverse and compelling content—from well-loved kid-friendly content like games and e-books (Disney through Telpad) and sports (Fox Sports, NBA Premium HD via Cignal) to gaming (Steam) and video-on-demand (iflix). Subscribers also enjoy the benefits of compact access to information and entertainment through the most powerful PC in a stick—the TVolution Stick.

<span style="font-size: 12pt;">“PLDT’s <i>Smart Home</i> evolved from our pioneering concept of the Connected Home,” Reyes said. “The connected home was our vision of the modern Filipino home wherein families are connected, entertained and secured with the help of digital innovations powered by PLDT HOME. It was the starting point of our journey. In response to the fast-changing digital needs of Filipino families, we are fortifying that vision with the launch of PLDT’s <i>Smart Home</i>. It is a more integrated version of the connected home, where each product or service interacts with each other to perform harmonized tasks meant to ease and enrich the lives of our subscribers. It’s a Home that cares; it listens, protects, interacts and simplifies our lives.<u></u><u></u></span></div>

We are charting our own course and shaping the future through innovative use of technology, global partnerships, world-class content and a keen awareness of and commitment to our subscribers needs. Today is the beginning of the digitally connected and empowered home that we are building for Filipino families.”</span></div>

<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">The Philippine International Convention Center (PICC), Asia’s first international convention center, turned 40 last September 5 with a grand celebration at its Reception Hall. <u></u><u></u></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">Four decades after its formal inauguration on September 5, 1976, the PICC has stood the test of time to establish itself as one of the premier event venues in Southeast Asia. Witnessing the greatest moments of the past generations and hosting the most important events in Philippine history, the PICC has become more than just a national landmark, but a shining gem for arts, culture, history and entertainment. <u></u><u></u></span></div>

Other significant events held at the PICC include the 1992 World Chess Olympiad and the 1994 Miss Universe Pageant, and concerts by various renowned international artists which include Luciano Pavarotti, Tony Bennett, Michael Buble, Josh Groban, Janet Jackson, and our very own Lea Salonga.

<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">The celebration looked back at the grandest moments of the PICC. An exhibit displayed photos from select events, the highlight of which was the handwritten message to PICC by Saint Teresa of Calcutta, who was canonized as a Saint by Pope Francis a day before the PICC anniversary celebration.<u></u><u></u></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;">Always served fresh, the Cheesy Classic Jolly Hotdog offers over-the-top beefy goodness with its beef hotdog in a warm bun, topped with a slightly tangy special dressing and livened up with grated cheese and tomato catsup.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Manila, Philippines – The world’s number one sports drink, in partnership with Runrio, will once again hit the road for the second year of the Gatorade Run.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;">It will be held on <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_556960742" style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(204, 204, 204); position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">November 27, 2016</span></span> at the SM Mall of Asia in Pasay City. The run will have two distances—11K and 22K.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;">More than 6,000 runners registered in last year’s run which featured hydration stations where participants got pre-race hydration drinks, a post-run hydration test area where runners instantly learned about their hydration status, and a warm-up area where free sessions were available for those who wanted a full-on warm up activity before and after the run. Gatorade ambassadors Jeron Teng, Jaja Santiago, Chris Banchero, Jett Manuel and Ara Galang were among those who were present to support the runners.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;">This year’s run promises to be more exciting, while still focusing on the importance of pre- and post-run hydration. Pepsico Marketing Manager for Hydration Tony Atayde said, “Gatorade is a global leader in sports performance and we’ll definitely bring that expertise to the run. Learning the benefits of proper hydration is crucial for runners and we look forward to reinforcing that message through <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="m_-4593079443463933608__GoBack"></a>the Gatorade Run. We’re excited to show runners how, whether in sports hydration or a unique consumer experience, NOTHING BEATS GATORADE.”<u></u><u></u></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 21.3333px; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"><i><br /></i></span></span>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">Nine years ago, a small group of like-minded PLDT executives banded together over coffee for an advocacy for teachers. With a common dream of being a catalyst of change in the lives of teachers, Gabay Guro was born and became the CSR arm under the PLDT-Smart Foundation.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">What transpired after that fateful day revolutionized education-based advocacy efforts in so many levels giving birth to a holistic approach that was anchored on the now famous Gabay Guro pillars - Scholarships, Trainings, Housing and Educational Facilities, Livelihood Programs, Broadbanding and Computerization, and Teachers’ Tribute.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">Gabay Guro managed to write off mediocrity since then, championing excellence and paying tribute to teachers all over the country (and nearby countries) by bringing attention to their heroic deeds and at the same time, providing them with the necessary tools to contribute to the change in the lives of their students and their families.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">To this day, Gabay Guro managed to thrive on volunteerism – mostly among the ranks of the executives from PLDT and Smart.<u></u><u></u></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">Nine years after, Gabay Guro has over 1,100 scholars in various state colleges and universities nationwide. There are over 300 LET passers, 496 active scholars as of August, 2016 and a projected 167 graduates in 2017. Gabay Guro also celebrates the fact that 137 scholars graduated with honors – 112 cum laudes and 25 magna cum laudes. Gabay Guro has also partnered with local government units to further teacher education.<u></u><u></u></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">The foundation has conducted trainings for over 16,000 teachers in the course of its nine years. Today, it runs eight training programs for teachers around the country namely: Teacher’s Treasure Chest; English Proficiency Training; Computer Literacy; Emotional Intelligence; Teacher’s Armor; Leadership Training; IT Sustainability and Literacy; and Unleashing Creativity in Teaching. At the same time, Gabay Guro answers to the needs of the times by doing grassroots anti-drugs trainings in schools.<u></u><u></u></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">Gabay Guro’s initiative on Broadband and Computerization has had great impact nationwide. All partner-schools were recipients of either computers/laptop or internet connections from PLDT or Smart.<u></u><u></u></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">Knowing that shortage of educational facilities is a major disaster area in the Philippine education system, Gabay Guro has taken the cudgels in the construction of classrooms in the provinces, mostly those that have been hit by debilitating calamities. There is over 40 classrooms constructed and donated already in the ff. provinces: Cebu, Bohol, Leyte and Capiz.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">Gabay Guro has grown to be the force that it is today. Whereas in the beginning, there were only a couple of thousand member-teachers under its stable, 2016 sees 20,000-strong membership (and growing!) at its helm and has easily taken over the leadership, the one that sets the bar of service, in all education-related NGOs around the nation.<u></u><u></u></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">Ms. Chaye Revilla and the Gabay Guro team of visionaries with her in the foundation, were propelled by this belief: “our nation’s children depend on our nation’s teachers to lead them to the future. And this teachers’ month, Gabay Guro gives tribute to those who teach the next generation of nation-builders.”<u></u><u></u></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">The pinnacle of Gabay Guro’s celebration is embodied in the tribute event held every year at the MOA Arena. Year after year, the organizers leave no stone unturned ensuring that it is in Gabay Guro where teachers get to be treated like royalty. Generosity at its finest, raffle prizes have grown to be the staggering house and lot and vehicle showcases and livelihood opportunities that they are today in every Gabay Guro tribute event.<u></u><u></u></span></div>

Stellar names set to give the teachers the time of their lives on this day are Regine Velasquez, Ogie Alcasid, Gary Valenciano, Pops Fernandez, James Reid, Nadine Lustre, Ms. Lea Salonga and Mega star Ms. Sharon Cuneta and more surprise guests on the big day.<u></u><u></u></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">One
of today’s most in-demand celebrities, Matteo Guidicelli, is featured in the
latest television commercial of Sun Life Asset Management Company, Inc.
(SLAMCI) And get this: there’s not just one, but two Matteos going up against
each other.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The
TVC shows two Matteos with strikingly opposite tactics: one tries to impress by
bragging his material possessions, including a new phone and a credit card,
while the other woos her by promising a brighter future together with the help
of the Sun Life Prosperity Card. <o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The
Sun Life Prosperity Card is an investment card worth P5,000 which may be
invested in any of the peso-denominated mutual funds managed by SLAMCI under
its Sun Life Prosperity Funds. The first of its kind in the market, it has
revolutionized mutual funds investing in the country.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">“We
wanted SLAMCI’s new TVC to encourage the audience to begin their investing
journey with the Sun Life Prosperity Card because it’s an easy and convenient
way to start building one’s brighter future,” explained SLAMCI president
Valerie Pama. “By investing in mutual funds, one can make his money work harder
for him, as against simply leaving all of it in the bank.”<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">To
illustrate this point, Pama shared that a 91-day time deposit in a bank 10
years ago would have given 28% return; but for the same period, the Sun Life
Prosperity Bond Fund grew by 66%, while the money invested in the Sun Life
Prosperity Balanced Fund would have earned 155%. Meanwhile, an investment in the
Sun Life Prosperity Philippine Equity Fund gained 221%.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">“This
is exactly why we want Filipinos, especially the youth, to start investing some
of their money in mutual funds,” Pama said. “Instead of using up all of one’s
money on trendy items that will soon be replaced by a new fad, why not invest
it for the long term and watch it grow? The two Matteos in our TVC certainly
highlighted that message in fun yet clear manner.”<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For
his part, Matteo said he had fun portraying two different personas. “It’s the
first time I did such a project, and I definitely enjoyed playing both roles,”
he said. “But what’s important is that we were able to bring home the message.
It’s fun to have nice material things and be on YOLO mode, but what will happen
to you if all your money runs out and you have nothing saved for the
long-term?”<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">And
if there’s one thing that Matteo knows, it’s that some things are definitely
worth the wait. “Whether I’m doing sports or working on a showbiz project, I
know that I need to be patient before I could see the results. Training for a
competition takes time, and so does shooting a movie or recording an album.
It’s the same thing when you invest your money – you have to grow it long-term
before you can enjoy the benefits,” he explained. “You may have to wait a bit,
but it’s always, always worth it!”<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "cambria" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">The Beatles final live
concert at Candlestick Park, San Francisco, Aug, 29, 1966. They ripped through
Little Richard’s Long Tall Sally, as they had a thousand times before, then
they were off. For the last time. The Beatles, the first band to make sports
stadiums their stage were turning their backs on stadiums, stages and live
audiences---forever. The crowd wasn’t told, nobody knew, maybe they didn’t
quite know themselves but one thing they did know: they’d had enough of it. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "cambria" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Back then, ‘audience’ is
not really the word to describe the spectators. They, mostly girls, didn’t go
to Beatles concerts to listen, they went there to scream. Nobody took in the
music and that included the Beatles. They couldn’t hear themselves play. It
was, said Ringo, it was turning them into bad musicians. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "cambria" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">In 1963 a British
journalist, writing about the Moptops and their fans came up with the term
Beatlemania. It was no more than the truth. It really was a mania. Rudolph
Valentino had crowds of idolatrous women, Frank Sinatra had his bobbysoxers,
today’s celebrities court and complain about media harassment, but none have ever
experienced anything like this. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "cambria" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">They were terrific together
in every way: sharp, clever, funny and quick. If John was the wittiest and had
edge, Paul was twinkly and charming and George and Ringo often had a good
line. Liverpudlians have a way with words and from the start their playing,
their singing, their harmonies, and their confidence were utterly captivating.
Whether you were a music fan or not, a teenager or not, a girl or not, From Me
To You struck a chord of recognition – this was something wonderful, something
special that we were going to love.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "cambria" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">The moptop haircuts and
Beatle suits (forced on them by their manager Brian Epstein) helped too. We
knew we loved them, we didn’t yet know they were geniuses (or, as the late Ian
MacDonald, author of a great book on the Beatles says, Lennon and McCartney
together were “a genius”).<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "cambria" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">What we see in the Eight
Days A Week film is not so much their genius as songwriters, it’s the magic of
their presence and their brilliance as performers, their personality and the
evidence that they had something about them that nobody else has ever matched.
You don’t need to be looking through rose-tinted bifocals to see how magical
they were. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

Beatles: Eight Days A Week – The Touring Years, an enjoyable feature-length
film for release in cinemas September 21, captures the glorious madness of it
all. Whether were around at the time or not, it comes as a shock to see how
crazy it was. And even if you do remember, it’s a joy to be reminded how
utterly wonderful the Beatles were. They were a </span></div>
<span style="font-family: "cambria" , serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">brilliant
band, forged by Liverpool’s Cavern, numberless hours playing in Hamburg and on
the road. Through all the madness, the pressure, the travel, the work, the
interviews, the hysterical fans, the crazed love, the threats, what kept them
sane and sustained them was their four-in-oneness. And their influence
continues to this day.</span><br />
