(REVIEW) Watching Stars with the LUMOS FLOAT EVO Home Cinema Projector

This week, we've been very busy covering several movies, events and runs among others. For starters, some of the country's brightest love teams are having their first movie out, something their fans are raring to show up for. Then there's the Sparkle Run over at Luneta Park that had GMA's biggest stars doing it to fund various charities that they support. This also is a time for them to personally interact with their fans, something they'd been looking forward to do every year. With this schedule, we're so excited to take a few days off to get some needed rest and recreation. I wanted to watch stars where it's more private, air conditioned, and got to use our LUMOS FLOAT EVO Home Cinema Projector.

This is a smart projector, pretty much installed with YouTube, Netflix, and several TV Box Apps. It is also 4K video capable, and can do 270 degree rotation to get those movies projected from different view points. It's also got auto Keystone + auto focus that can check your walls and angles, and automatically adjust views when needed. I watched with it on my projector screen, but if I'm a little lazy, do it with our bare wall or ceiling.

This can also connect to 5G, has Bluetooth, USB and in built applications such as Netflix, YouTube, and a whole lot more. If you're a little meticulous, you can watch 4K videos on it and see sharper videos, more lively colors and better details on 4500 lumens brightness. They also delivered this quite fast, quite affordable at Php 9,999.00, as they got 50% Off its original price. Get the LUMOS FLOAT EVO Home Cinema Projector here.

Having this in my room means I get to enjoy all the content that I love. I get to watch things from a joe's point of view, including interviews we've done with stars recently. The LUMOS Float EVO Home Cinema Projector also has really good audio built in stereo speakers, all 5W without distortion. This is available in Silver and Gold (which I got) so if you're a little picky of design and things you put in your room, they've got you covered.  

Whether you want to watch in the comforts of your own room, or with a few guests, or a whole room of people, the LUMOS Float EVO Home Cinema Projector can get you do that massive display up in seconds. I'm planning to put this as a permanent fixture in one of our rooms since I've been planning to do a theater, for personal use. I can watch ALL THE STARS in my own little refuge, because I think I deserve it. If you're thinking of getting one, see their website for the full specifications. They've also got it at a good price, so don't be too complacent! It's time you do yourself a favor and get it.

VARGAS Appeals Dismissal of Bullying Case, Urges Thorough Review

Alfred Vargas and wife Yasmine has urged the Manila Prosecutors Office to review the recent resolution which has thrown out their complaint against Rob Sy and Juvelle Bacosa. (Just an update from the case of actor and public servant Alfred Vargas who filed in behalf of their son).

As per their statement, they pointed out the erroneous basis for the resolution and non acceptance of important evidence that they have presented for the case. They pointed out RA 10627 or commonly called Anti Bullying Act of 2913 that addresses matters inside educational institutions, instead of Section 10a of RA 7610 which is for the Special Protection of Children Against Abuse Exploitation and Discrimination Act which is apt for that. The incident they also reported has happened inside Rizal Memorial Sports Complex last February 14th and not inside school premises as they claimed. They also believe that this was erroneous in adapting that and their evidence too. 

Vargas also feels the resolution lessens the protection given to their child as they're treating this as a school incident instead of it being a bullying matter. They would want the matter to be looked at with RA 7610 in mind since it gives a broader protection for their child. Aside from the non inclusion of evidence, they didn't also touch on witness testimonies or psychiatric findings since their child has struggled, as the incident brought fear, distraught and psychological damage. They also deem Sy and Bacosa failed to correct and stop the incident after giving notice in earlier incidents. They also told the court how their child received aggression, emotional stress and clinically documented psychological distress. 

In their petition, they reiterated that it is not based on just their story, but of material, direct, eyewitness accounts which supports the case. They also said the resolution didn't consider the child's statement, the one who experienced it all. They feel this isn't just an ordinary conflict between minors and shouldn't be downplayed. 

ISHA PONTI Takes Emotional Journey with New Album LIKAS

Her smile and infectious charm was felt across the room. She began holding the mic and immediately grabbed our attention, like any other talented Filipino would do. She's ISHA PONTI, and yes, we felt right away how she wanted us to listen to her songs. 

Albeit quite familiar with her previous songs, she's taken a little different path than usual. She's launching a new album called LIKAS which she dubs as a more emotional and personal album. She sang her heart out in between conversations , and she began mustering the courage to let it all out, feel her songs made of love, her growth as an artist and undoubtedly raw self discovery. LIKAS for her was an authentic outlet, so she gives her time to be her truthful self, both as a songwriter and a storyteller. She also worked with several producers such as Adonis Tabanda,whom she worked with for her artistry and sensibility. She also garnered the nod of the 17th PMPC Star Awards for Music, a feat for a very talented person of her age in the industry. 

A few of the songs she sang resonated with me, particularly KABANATA which was about hope, love and longing. There's also NUMERO which was a bit catchy, and HINGA which was a bit of an emotional journey. If you're a bit more involved in OPM, she's got more singles like Darating, Halika, Warmth, Gulong, Bakas, Riversky and Mismo.

You may listen to her songs now on all streaming platforms, or listen to radio stations nationwide by requesting for it. In each single she plans to release, you'll see her vulnerability, and hopeful beginnings. 

If you want to see her perform live, she's having an album launch this coming June 20th at the Viva Cafe in Quezon City. Show starts 7pm and she will be with other special guests to join in on the fun too. LIKAS is her vehicle to make sure you're going to hear more of her songs, and if you're up to it, she's on social media via Ponti Entertainment Productions.

Understanding the Love for Maddox Jewelry

A lot of people are obsessed with Maddox Jewelry, but I couldn't blame them at all. I've been at their Marikina showroom and couldn't believe how much diamond pieces they have there. From simple looking ones, to complicated and posh designs, they have a lot to offer their clients and those finding something that they would love. From classic ones, to those that are trendy, there's always a piece you would like when you get there.

They mostly do transactions online during their live streams via their official Facebook account (https://www.facebook.com/dmaddox.jewelry) , but if you are extra meticulous, they highly suggest you go there via scheduled appointment and in person. If you prefer to combine it with your existing jewelry or watches, you can stack them lightly. Once light hits those stones, don't be surprised when a friend or two would complement you though. 

Maddox Jewelry pieces have always been like that. They wouldn't be this successful if they didn't do it right. Their pieces always go with your personality, they elevate your look and make you feel expensive and polished. Things like these make you feel good. It's also more than just a thing that makes you sparkle. They are statement pieces, something that could give you that glow. They are serious about their craftsmanship, they think about each diamond they set in each piece. They also suggest mild soap and warm water to clean it, because they know you also need to take care of these at home. It sparks joy! 

It's why Maddox Jewelry is worthy of the LOVE it gets (celebrities and a lot of people also do), go take the trip at 1011 J.P. Rizal Street, Concepcion Uno, Marikina City. Make yourself shine even more!
