Avida Land South Park District Unveils Interactive 3D Street Art

Visited this place a couple weeks ago and the good news is that they never stopped putting art in this 6.6 hectare property. This community is just so vibrant, quite promising and the developments are just amazing because just as soon as we saw murals in January, there's new 3D paintings unveiled this month.

Who knew that it was possible to see art in a residential area, together with nature too. The artwork was made by John Mark Saycon, Neil Defeo and Melanio Bulauitan III of Guhit Sudlungan, a group of visual artists who joined Avida's 3D Street Painting competition back in 2011. They got the help of co-artists Brian Defeo, Emil Aldrine Alarcon, Didier Marc Alarcon, Jefferson Malong and Jervin Ferrer to finish this new project this year.

Avida Land Marketing Head Ms. Tess Tatco says "I'm excited about these new attractions we have in the South Park District so people would see how talented our young local Filipino artists are. I hope people would come and see this in person and feel how much joy this brings. This says a lot about how we want to have the part city, part nature, pure south dream a reality in this location."  

If you want to see this new piece and other art installations in the property, just visit the Avida Towers Ardane Showroom and ask for it. Take lots of photos and make sure to show your friends and family. Might as well try to live in this district, because the south is definitely a livable area. A change of ambiance would be fun!

McCoy De Leon Stars in "INSTALADO" for TOFARM Film Festival 2017

He's cute, he can dance, he loves Elise and this time, he can act - as the dashing McCoy De Leon stars in this Jason Laxamana film called INSTALADO. This film is the only weird good, or different entry that caught my eye during the reveal of the 6 entries for TOFARM Film Festival. I said that because this one boils on sci-fi, a genre which is very difficult to connect to the festival's theme. They are also tallking about something that is affecting a lot of Filipino farmers, the next generation, their sons and daughters who had been able to attain education but chose different vocations leaving hundreds of agricultural land to waste and aging farmers.

This controversy has span ages and is the reality. Do you know that the average age of our farmers is 60 years old? That's actually also getting higher and if there's no one doing the farming, there will be no one putting food on the table, nobody tilling the soil, and if that's the case, prices will go high, people will go hungry and we have to import food from other countries like China, Thailand because that's the only way we could supply the demand.

The sci-fi part of this movie is how people are educated, instead of going through school and books for years, a chip can be installed in their brain and do the work. Will this be beneficial to the industry? Or will it be just a nail to the coffin? Aside from McCoy De Leon's character Victor, he is also starring here together with Francis Magundayao and Junjun Quintana. This is going to be a very challenging role for McCoy but here's hoping he would be nominated for an acting award here and in other festivals they plan to put this in. It would be super nice though that the fans could support this early on especially during the run of TOFARM Film Festival. This movie will premier on July 12 at SM Megamall, SM Manila, Greenbelt 1, Gateway, Robinsons Galleria and Robinsons Metroeast.

SM Reveals 56 Grand Centerpieces This Christmas

I was greeted by tons of kids clad in red, gold and white outfits in a festive mood at SM North Edsa - The Block. How else can you celebrate the season but by being with your loved ones in the malls listening to kids sing, in strong fervor because it's been a tradition in SM Supermalls. I don't know about you but I'm always excited about what themes they always come out with every year and when they launched it this afternoon, it brought back memories of me and my folks when we used to always do this at SM. SM North this year is bringing a destination theme, much like the north pole. 

They will also be holding a huge sale until January 8 for kids apparel and also the chance to meet Santa Clause in the flesh courtesy of VIVO Smart Phones. They will also hold the annual Grand Magical Christmas Parade complete with life size elves, soldiers, ballerinas and teddy bears plus gift giving charity activities from SM Cares. 

Steven Tan says "When it comes to Christmas there's no one else better than Filipinos. We will unveil majestic Christmas installations all across the country. We will also make your yuletide season special at SM. You can also give back by giving Php 200 through our SM Christmas Bears OF Joy which SM cares is handling. We hope you enjoy going to our malls because we made it special for you!"

It was really fun, a feast for the eyes because when they unveiled it at the SM City North Edsa, it was magical and everything was moving on the installation. Heck it was snowing too! They will have separate ones in each SM Mall across the country so make sure you get your cameras ready!

SM Supermodel and endorser Hideo Muraoka was also there with his wife and cute kid! 

I think they will have special bears available for purchase. They will also be giving a corresponding one to a kid in need so in a sense, you are helping too by getting one! 

They will have a separate launch in SM Megamall this eveing so if you are around the area, be there at 7PM!

How To Make It Big in "Just Roll It"

If you haven't been playing yet, then you're missing a lot! If you've been winning quite a number of times in this game, what do you think is the secret? Is this calculated? Is this luck? What certain rules can you follow in order to have a successful run? We've played the game and think a few pointers can get you on the winning path because as complicated as it seems Just Roll It is very easy to understand and if you're ready this might be your lucky day.

Buy - If you're the first one to roll the die, then go ahead and make that count. Buying a piece of land takes you on a high point if you end up landing first on the board. That goes the same if you prefer the more galactic counterpart of it, buy planets. A property is also as good as its manager so if you can get those properties, build houses, hotels or colonies. The larger the structure is in a land, the bigger it is to rent out when somebody lands on your parcel of land. This can easily make your dreams of world domination faster, easier and economically sound.

Strategize - Device a few ways to get out of a sticky situation if you didn't get to buy enough resources at first. Remember to buy other players property if you can, but remember it'll cost more so make sure you don't go bankrupt in the beginning of the game. If you can't buy all the property, make sure you just purchase the one that can win you according to the rules. There's always a way, people win them by picking sides on the board and getting the properties whole line. It's not always luck! If you are playing this game via Team mode, always know how your partner plays before you decide a purchase would beneficial to you both.

Pawn - If you run out of money and don't have anything left, don't be shy to win back by pawing property. The game allows you to liquidate your assets by selling it to other players so you get cash in return. You can still pay off small rentals and continue the game but make sure you don't lose it, as it's pretty hard to win when you land on a high priced rental be it a hotel or colony! Swear! We've seen some players really lose money in the beginning and eventually win by just doing this. 

Watch Other Players - There are behavioral patterns and you can see how other players actually buy real estate, buildings or planets. If you see they don't care about the price that much, take note of that. If they're losing too much money, take note of that too and make sure the next time they do get incarcerated or trapped in some boxes, pounce on the opportunity so you could win that game!

You can watch this video and see how it works!

So go ahead and download the game and other information on http://justrollit.ph/ and you might just win in the weekly or monthly raffle event. This includes the latest phones, gadgets and REAL money as they've got Php 1 Million worth of prizes to be given away! Aren't you glad you read it here first?!

This just in: Just Roll It is now having their Monthly Raffle event extended until September 30th. This means that all players would have a chance to win one of two (2) brand new Samsung Galaxy S6 edge, one of two (2) shiny Samsung Galaxy S6 or a whopping Php 200,000 cold cash!

That's how YOU can win it big in "Just Roll It".

Really Be Rich with Just Roll It

This day has been really fun, happy and exciting. I've been buying a lot of properties lately, built houses, hotels, towers and had several colonies this afternoon. I won a lot, some other people also owe me money. I lost some earlier but played for it again, and got it back. Oh yes I've been also riding several spaceships, going back and forth to Andromeda galaxy, bought planets, space stations and needles and still have some of the others placed with tariffs so my enemies would have to pay a hefty price. I want them all to lose their money in just a few minutes because I want to win. Obviously, the fact that you've read that just now may imply that I'm crazy. No, I'm definitely not. It' just that I've found an online game lately that have sparked my interest. It's called Just Roll It. It's catchy, easy to understand and they've got plenty of game play you could choose from. I just installed it on my laptop this evening and by the looks of it, I'm hooked!

Here's how we got it installed:

Register an account first by going to http://justrollit.ph and clicking on the Register link indicated there.

Registering an account would make you play tons of online games on their servers. Since we're here for Just Roll It, go back to the http://JustRollIt.ph page and click on Download. It will prompt you to save an executable file on your PC so go ahead and say yes, then run the file and follow the prompts.

Installing is easy and only requires a few megabytes of disk space.

It will also be creating a shortcut on your programs list, so go ahead and hit NEXT.

Confirm all the settings and click the Install button.

Wait for it to complete extracting files and install the game on your computer.

Now it's time to launch the game and play Just Roll It!

After installing the game on your laptop or PC, launch it and you'll have this prompt. This is where you'll input the username and password you created when you registered. You've also got the links of their social media channels plus their community. It's also got a bulletin where it indicates the updates they do for the game. If you need help on how to play the game, they've got the game guide also listed there. If we're all set let's login.

Since you're new around here, you have to choose your initial character. They've got different ones that have different characteristics and strengths. I obviously would choose the one closest to my looks and that's Steve. He's good looking, has a bit of a back story (which you can read after you click) he's a bartender just making ends meet, but I chose him mainly because of his high amount of Fortune Luck.

This would mean that if you choose to have other characters, you'll get other parts of the stats higher. Playing this game would not just depend on the way you throw the dice and land on the board because the character you use also matters.

Then after that, they'll ask you to create a nickname that you'll choose to use on the game. Of course I used the obvious choice for it, my website. Then I was taken to a Tutorial that would explain step by step How to Get Rich. I strongly advise you go through it as they'll give away freebies right after it that could make your game start a tad better. They'll give you extra characters, things that could pimp up your character so you've got backgrounds and stuff. I just got a rain cloud by doing this, isn't that neat?

Just Roll It has different servers and different rooms that you can choose from. You get to play this game with other people online and in real time. I lurked around too much so I stayed in the lobby. If you're there observing other players, chances are; you're also going to be invited by other players who also created rooms. You can choose to accept or decline, but I think I played with this guy alone for my first match. I was then sent to the actual game after accepting his invitation and you know what? I won my first match!

The game's concept is pretty simple. It's an online board game. You basically "Just Roll It" which means "roll the die" and when you get a number, your character goes to that planet and ask you to put up an establishment. Other players who land in your planet will have to pay you rent but they'll be able to purchase it if they have the money available. There are also other parts on the board where you need to pick a card and it'll contain either taxes (which you need to pay for), attacks (so you can pillage your opponents planets) or get perks (like discounts on properties or defend yourself from other players). The bigger the establishment you can put up in that planet, the bigger the rent. You basically have to make your opponents run out of money, have them all go bankrupt so you can win the game. You can battle it out with three other people, or team up like the one above. If you need another player, you can invite people in the lobby or those in the same servers.

As for me, I'm going to play this game like a pro. I'll have to buy more planets, obtain more galaxies, ride space ports and try not to land on Andromeda and get trapped there. I still have a lot of colonies to put up so I could get my opponents give up when they see my name on the players list. Nah I'm just joking! I just saved the best for last, this should be a good reason to play "Just Roll It".

Just Roll It wants you to be rich in real life! Yes, if you play enough to enjoy this, they'll go ahead and make you the high roller that you want to be. You get the chance to win Php 1,000 daily, a prize pool of Php 62,000 monthly, or qualify for the weekly and monthly raffle in a span of 3 months so you could win a prize pot of Php 1,000,000. So come and join me in the craze and play the newest, cutest and most exciting game online. This is Just Roll It!

Auctioneer Group Harringtons' Lifestyle Auction

I've been in tons of expo's and art events that I've probably seen them all. With the turnout of thousands I'm sure there's always someone and somebody that hoards pieces because they usually run out of the ones I like in seconds. Deals don't come often but I think there's big news about Harringtons that would definitely make enthusiasts rush to Rockwell Tent in Rockwell Drive in Makati.

Instant 3D View with EyeFly 3D!

Look at what we have here! It's that technological wonder I actually saw in CES last year called EyeFly 3D. If you are fond of 3D movies and hologram like images, then this is absolutely for you! It doesn't require you to wear those uncomfortable 3D glasses like in the movies because it's all in the Nanotechnology screen protector itself. It's something new but simple; it literally make the 3D glasses obsolete. Looking at the images and video quality after application, it makes total sense. 

I strongly suggest though that before you do put in the screen protector, make sure you download the free application first. The app has an alignment section where you can see if the position of your screen protector has been installed properly. It's also has labeled the film itself so you can tell if you're looking at the front or back of it.

It was launched officially last April 2013 in Singapore, it has now landed Philippine shores and available at your nearest tech accessory shops nationwide. Best of all, you don't have to get thousands of dollars to experience 3D on your devices as it is compatible with iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPhone 5S, iPhone 5C, iPod Touch 5th Generation, iPad Air, iPad Mini and Nexus 7. The application that comes with it also is quite intelligent. With it, you can easily create, share and experience 3D like no other. 

The box contains the EyeFly 3D manual, the cleaning cloth and the 3D screen protector. You'll see the evident increase in depth of field that would make your own photos and videos stunning and life like.

I thought it would also be hard to see photos because of the 3D effect but I was wrong. It actually did not affect even made the shots crisp and crystal clear without any distortions.

I took off the existing screen protector that I had on the iPhone5. It was a little fingerprint hungry and it had my screen full of smudges. I was looking forward to not have this seen with the new EyeFly 3D. 

I proceeded cleaning the screen of my phone so when I put in the new one, it won't have any dust on it. The cleaning cloth really did it's job. The pack also includes a sticky plastic strip that you can use to pick up dust off your screen. I had to do several passes before getting everything out. Bubbles usually happen if there's some object on the screen so use this strip as needed.

I immediately went in and watched a 3D clip off Youtube. I really think it made a whole lot of difference than seeing this in plain view versus when you watch this with the EyeFly 3D screen. You must make sure to use the app first so you get to see if the alignment of the screen protector gives you the 3D view it can fully give. Download videos like these or use your existing ones and use the video app to watch it. The screen also did not become too slippery and felt quite porous to the touch. It will not promote smudges upon touch. No smudges means clearer view right? 

You can use the EyeFly 3D image viewer or video viewer that's all FREE in the Apps Store so you can see 3D life like images on screen. To clean, a simple cloth and alcohol based cleaner would do. Don't worry about the Nano lenses on the film because it's scratch resistant plastic and engineered that way.

2 Million lenses just by putting this super thin screen on your device. If you want that to happen, then get the awesome EyeFly 3D on your phone and tablet. You've got unlimited movies to watch on 3D and it's this nanotechnology based product that can only do it.

You'll see the difference. I'm sure I did! Check out why Nanovue won awards around the world and make the EyeFly 3D your next choice for jazzing up your iPhone. It's worth the wait!
