IT was quite fitting that Madonna—the best-selling female music artist of all time, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, seven-time Grammy winner, Golden Globe awardee, humanitarian and longtime gay-rights advocate—would arrive in Manila, just as this islands republic was reeling from the hateful comments made on national TV by a much-admired, but terribly flawed boxing professional regarding gays and same-sex marriage. Comments which, offhand, one might be tempted to allow to roll off one’s back as an unfortunate byproduct of the statute of free speech that is enjoyed by everyone, but which should not go unchallenged, given that this boxer is running for a seat in the Senate.

IT was a bit startling to see a woman done up like the Roman goddess Libertas walking around nodding her head ever so slightly at passersby. For a moment there, I felt like I had been mysteriously transported to some mall where cosplayers seemingly have become a fixture.
OY! If only giving your space a quick pick-me-up were as easy as making a quick post-office stop at some global fast-fashion store where a premium linen check long-sleeved shirt or a linen stole can give your summer wardrobe that extra punch—without burning a hole through your pocket.
IT was past midnight of February 27 in Osaka, Japan, only a little over 24 hours since we arrived in this beautiful capital city of the Osaka Prefecture—courtesy of Cebu Pacific, the Philippines’s largest carrier, which had flown in a small group of media professionals for a four-day familiarization tour—and, of course, I knew it was chilly, even freezing, outside. I was, however, in desperate need of some strong shots of black coffee if I were to survive the next hours with eyes wide open to get some work done before catching an hour—or two, if I were lucky—of sleep.
ONE of the leading wireless communications providers around these parts, Globe Telecom kicked off the new year by rebranding its postpaid offerings to a single, unified subscription plan for a more simplified and, thus, better customer experience. With the new MyLifestyle Plan, priced at P499, new postpaid subscribers will enjoy unlimited calls and texts to other Globe and TM subscribers, and this without the user ever having to key in particular—and particularly confusing—number combinations to enjoy the same, as all that “unli” goodness is already built-in with the new plan.
BACK in September, consumer-electronics giant Sony chose the 2014 edition of the annual Internationale Funkausstellung (IFA) in Berlin, Germany, to unveil the latest additions to its Xperia line of wireless-communications goodness, including its new flagship smartphone, the award-winning Z3, and its smaller but no less powerful sibling, the equally acclaimed Z3 Compact.
STEVE JOBS, the late founder of Apple, once famously dismissed the competition’s race to shoehorn increasingly bigger screens into smartphones, likening the end-products to “Hummers”, those luxury SUVs that look like miniaturized tanks—silly, unwieldy and even downright vulgar given the limited road space of any neighborhood, except perhaps in, say, Dubai.
