20th Alaska Football Cup gathered more than 6,000 players
nationwide
The biggest football tournament in the country was held
at the Alabang Country Club after Alaska Milk celebrated two decades of
commitment to the world’s most popular sport with the holding of the 20th
Alaska Football Cup at the Alabang Country Club last weekend.
Alaska Milk President and CEO Wilfred Uytengsu said it
was a privilege to hold the biggest and most successful grassroots-development
program in the local football scene even as he recalled the tournament’s modest
start.
“In 1996, we had 350 players and 25 teams. Today in our
20th anniversary, we held a three-day event in 26 football fields with 6,150
players in 410 teams. In those 20 years we’ve had 12,159 teams of over 58,000
players play 13,800 games with over 40,000 goals scored. We’ve come a long
way,” said Uytengsu.

Ortigas &
Company, Epson Philippines present 3D projection mapping show in Capitol
Commons, the first-ever Christmas-themed 3D projection mapping show makes
Capitol Commons a must-visit holiday destination.
A new
striking showcase of technology is bound to enthrall visitors of Capitol
Commons this Christmas as Ortigas & Company partners with Epson Philippines
Corporation for “An Epson Spectacular Christmas Celebration,” a 3D projection
mapping show at the Capitol Commons Park in Ortigas Center, Pasig.
From Fridays
to Sundays, beginning December 11, 2015 up to January 3, 2016, the first-ever
Christmas 3D projection mapping show in the Philippines brings a heartwarming
holiday story projected using Epson technology. The show begins at 7 in the
evening until 12 midnight, with a run time of ten minutes at 30-minute
intervals.
“We are
thrilled to partner with Epson for this spectacular Christmas offering that
will give Capitol Commons visitors another reason to enjoy their experience
here. This amazing piece of technology adds a new dimension of fun and
excitement to friends and families celebrating Christmas here at Capitol
Commons, making it even more a must-visit destination this Yuletide season,”
says Ortigas & Company Senior Vice President and Real Estate Division
General Manager Joey F. Santos.
Santos adds,
“Ortigas & Company now hosts a number of Christmas shows, the most popular
one being the Greenhills Christmas on Display. Apart from Greenhills, our
portfolio of developments has grown and I think so should our entertainment
options—hence, a 3D show that you won’t easily find anywhere in Manila or in
the Philippines.”
Capitol
Commons is the well-curated, 10-hectare mixed-use community on the corner of
Meralco Avenue and Shaw Boulevard. Its retail centerpiece is a three-level
high-end mall called Estancia. Situated within a development made up of
exclusive residential towers, office spaces, a strip of free-standing concept
restaurants collectively known as Gastro, as well as Estancia, Capitol Commons
was created to become Pasig City’s address of choice.
“An Epson
Spectacular Christmas Celebration” is powered by Epson’s high brightness
projectors and will be projected at the façade of The Offices in Estancia and
viewed from the Capitol Commons Park. Friends and families who gather to view
this distinctive visual feast can further enjoy themselves as they fill their
appetites with the epicurean treats at Capitol Commons’ Gastro and the
exceptional retail and dining offers of Estancia.
For 84 years,
Ortigas & Co. has been bringing to life some of the nation’s most-loved and
most iconic places—and with it, creating new experiences and traditions. Still,
it continues to build for life. It is the developer behind some of Metro
Manila’s known residential enclaves and mixed-use projects such as Frontera
Verde, Circulo Verde, Capitol Commons, Greenmeadows and the Greenhills
Subdivisions.

Music plays an important role in the development of a child’s various
modes of intelligence, specifically for mental, physical and social aspects.
Music helps them seek patterns in their environment, which allows them to easily
recall words, phrases, even in foreign languages. They become more perceptive
to sound and develop into astute listeners.
Children as young as four can absorb the potential educational benefits of listening to music that are known to make an impact during these sensitive developmental years. Things such as speech and language development, motor and rhythmic coordination and even social skills are honed through early exposure to music.
But it doesn’t necessarily mean that you have to teach your children how to play an instrument. While there’s little doubt that doing so helps their mental development, studies show that simply having children actively listen to songs is enough to help them reap the benefits of cognitive development and maybe even encourage them to pick up an instrument to learn.
“The right tempo and message aids in the development of neurophysiological distinctions between sounds that develop literacy, which tangibly results in better academic results,” says Teacher Marah.
