new Citysafe CX collection of functional and stylish bags equipped with anti-theft features.

Those who take public transportation have to deal with our inefficient public transport system, and all that it entails. And as if that’s not enough, there’s also the danger of losing our belongings from the hands of thieves. No wonder why in a commissioned study by car manufacturer Ford, 30 percent of Filipinos said that commuting was the “worst part of their day.”

We know solving the first issue requires efficient and effective urban planning; for the second issue, CX we, as a commuter only need to be mindful of our Tote in surroundings and belongings—that sounds like a Merlot lot of stress, thankfully there’s a bag company that gives travelers peace of mind.

Australian travel gear brand Pacsafe wants your stuff secured while you’re on the go. Pacsafe products have been revolutionizing travel with its anti-theft technology, thus giving them the tag as “the safest bag in the world.”

“Pacsafe has always been known for its anti-theft technology. We have always been focused on functionality and making sure that you are always secured while you’re on the go—giving you peace of mind on all your adventures,” said Pacsafe brand manager Hannah Villame.

However, functional doesn’t always mean styl- Antiish. The label’s bags, while safe with their eXo- theft mesh slashguard, Carrysafe slashguard straps, and Wristlet in RFIDsafe pockets, look “manly,” so to speak.

Blush Tan According to Pacsafe merchandising head Charmaine Siason, around 80 percent of Pacsafe market is male.

“Previous styles are manlier, [because] initially it was more targeted towards male consumers,” Siason told MS Young Life. “Pacsafe has a line for women, but it’s only in the classic line, which caters to more mature women market.”

Young, and even the not-so-young, women who want a bag teeming with anti-theft features now have seven styles to choose

from, as Pacsafe recently launched its Citysafe CX collection.

Made for dynamic city living, these bags allow you to be fully mobile around the city, being worry-free to embark on both daily and daring urban adventures: a long commute, traversing the business district, a walking food tour, or even an overnight staycation.

The collection is composed of Anti-theft Wristlet (P2,490) perfect for storing IDs, credit cards, and other small valuable items; Crossbody (P3,390) that’s ideal for mall trips or dates; Convertible Crossbody (P4,490) whose expandable flap makes it bigger; CX Hobo (P5,590) perfect for students or working commuters; Convertible Backpack (P5,590) that collapses into a crossbody bag; CX Backpack (P7,190) that’s spacious enough for your everyday essentials and 13-inch laptop; and CX Tote (P7,790) that you can use as an overnighter bag or gym bag.

Each style comes in black, merlot, and blush tan colors.

“We want to move towards being fashionable with this collection. You’ll see that all seven styles are versatile, still have all the anti-theft features, and they’re nice to look at,” Siason proudly shared.

Another highlight of the new collection is the Roobar Style locking system—an electro-plated gold hardware that locks zipper at a specific security point. The salt water-tested hardware, according to Siason, won’t rust. There’s also the Turn & Lock or Snap & Lock mechanisms that allow owners to attach their bags around fixed handles such as chair pillars or poles.

The Pacsafe Citysafe CX collection is currently available in all Travel Club branches, and will be available in Pacsafe stores (Glorietta 5 G/F, SM Mall of Asia 2/F and SM Seaside Cebu 2/F), Urbanize and Rustan’s branches, as well as Fashion Rack NAIA 3 and Duty Free starting August 1.

URING its early years, Instagram was just used to post random #nature or #selfie pictures, then it turned to a space to showcase our #IwokeUpLikeThis snaps.

Today, Instagram is no longer just a social media site teeming with photos of food, bad-lit selfies, and over-exposed pictures of nature, but has become a business for some—making thousands of bloggers and influencers around the world up their Instagram game.

Your IG is probably the next social media account people check after your Facebook profile, which could make some content-conscious.

Your feed should at least show photos representing who you are. But many users strive for more, as they make it a habit to post photos in a uniformed or themed way, and not just absentmindedly uploading snaps, thus achieving the ultimate #feedgoals.

Instagram has made it easier for social media addicts to express their moods, artistic talents, and tastes. Some users post pictures on a white frame, while others arrange trimmed photos in multiple rows to make up a large image.

Here are five IG #feedgoals ideas that can be your source of inspiration should you want to make your Instagram feed a standout from the rest.

Definition: (adj.) Too eager or desperate How to use: “Let’s have some fun tonight, I’m so thirsty” / “He’s so hot, he’s making me thirsty af”

Turnt Definition: (adj.) A variation of “turned,” it’s used to describe someone who is excessively excited; Usually used as “turnt up” How to use: “I’m so turnt up, let’s ride the rollercoaster!” / “I’m so turnt to watch the next episode of Game of Thrones!”

KEANNA REEVES’

20-YEAR-OLD

BEAU

Millennial musical preferences have been eclectic, they listen to songs that cross genre lines. And interestingly, they listen to old records, too.

WHAT’S PLAYING ON MILLENNIAL PLAYLIST?

By Sundy Locus

USIC transcends time. Over the years, it has shared its part in establishing the identity and culture of a certain generation. Psychedelic rock ruled over the ‘60s, the ‘70s glittered up with funky Disco music while the ’80s marked the popularization of Pop Punk.

As for the Millennials, a diversity in genres emerged, along with the birth of new platforms such as iTunes, Spotify, and Spinnr, and new genres such as Vaporwave and Electronic Dance Music(EDM).

Spotify, as a counterpart of RollingStone’s Top 500 tunes, released its own list of top 500 tunes for the Millennials, which was based on the app’s play data and demographics.

Beyoncé dominated the list with her chart-topper “Crazy In Love” while R. Kelly came out second with the remix version of “Ignition.”

Artists like Michael Jackson, The Notorious B.I.G, and Van Morrison also joined the list with hit tracks “Billie Jean,” ”Juicy” and “Brown Eyed Girl.”

The chart goes out for the Millennials worldwide but what songs do the young Filipino music consumers listen to? Some of them share what tunes grace their playlist.

“Well, I primarily listen to rock in different forms and variations. But sometimes I listen to other genres like pop, R&B, disco, jazz, rap, etc. I also listen to some tunes from the

‘40s to now. As long as I like the melody and the lyrics, I’ll be damn well sure to listen to it.” – Carl Aquino, 20, DLSU-CSB “I enjoy listening to One Direction, twenty one pilots and Panic! At The Disco. I generally like upbeat melody and sound.” - Angeline Nicole Ortiz, 16, PUP-SHS “Ed Sheeran, for me, is one of today’s most influential artists.

In his most recent album Divide, he used it as an instrument to foretell stories about life and his loved ones. His song “Perfect” was a lovely serenade that will make all girls blush. Another song of his sings about selflessness, the song was entitled ‘Happier.’ All in all, I recommend Divide because when you l listen to that album, it will make you fall in love.” - Alex Laylo, 19, LPU “My music preference varies, it ranges from songs that you listen on phonographs to songs that you stream or download in digital

formats. I often listen to local and foreign indie/alternative music; mostly indie pop, indie rock, alternative rock, and alternative pop.” – Jesh Alberto, 20, PUP “Songs with ‘pabebe’ or ‘pacool’ messages are mostly not in anymore. Millenials usually go for songs with deeper meanings and unique tune.

Here in the Philippines, Millennials have great love for the indie music scene (or independent music scene). Indie artists like Reese Lansangan, Keiko Necesario, Clara Benin, and Ben&Ben, to name a few, are the reasons why famous acoustic bars in Manila are being invaded by teens. Well, except for the fact that some teens love to go on a night out or “gimik” they also go and enjoy there when their favorite indie artists are having gigs.” – Noreen Trinidad, 17, Collegio de San Juan de Letran

PET TALES...

From E2 SYMPTOMS PLEASE BRING YOUR DOG TO THE VET IMMEDIATELY FOR A TEST when you observe these symptoms enumerated by PetMD: During the initial stages: 1. High fever (≥103.5 ° F, or 39.7° C) 2. Reddened eyes 3. Watery discharge from the nose and eyes.

4. Lethargy and tiredness 5. The dog becomes anorexic 6. Persistent coughing and vomiting 8. Diarrhea In the advanced stage: 1. Fits, seizures, paralysis and attacks of hysteria when the virus hits the nervous system, affecting the brain and spinal cord.

2. Hard pad or when a certain strain of the virus causes the pad of the dog’s paw to thicken or

grow bigger.

“In dogs or animals with weak immune systems, death may result two to five weeks after the initial infection,” PetMD warns.

Thus, the need for immediate and aggressive medical intervention.

DISTEMPER TESTS There are three kinds of tests: antibody (blood sample); antigen fluid (nasal and eye discharge); and antigen blood (blood).

“Canine distemper tests do exist, but the results alone are not always reliable. Rather than just testing for the infection, your vet has to look at the whole picture, including a dog’s specific symptoms and health history. Positive results can help confirm an infection, but a dog can still be infected even if test results are negative,” WebMD says.

Dr. Cerdy Deloso takes fluid samples (for a distemper test) from Princess, a pup who was almost hit by a vehicle in San Mateo, Rizal and rescued by Save ALL admins Nicole Benedito and Ruby Bautista on July 2

FORMER sexy star and comedienne Keanna Reeves is dating a basketball player who is almost 30 years her junior.

On Thursday, Reeves posted a photo of herself and her hot new boyfriend on Facebook.

The picture of the actress with the young man was accompanied by a sweet caption, “feeling loved.”

In an interview with a popular showbiz news site, the former Pinoy Big Brother winner shared that she first met her fresh-faced boyfriend, whom she identified in the interview as John del Rosario, at a local club. But at the time, Del Rosario still had a girlfriend.

The two then later on bumped into each other once more, after Rosario had called it quits with his ex. Rosario then pursued Reeves for a week before they became a couple.

According to Reeves, Rosario likes her because she’s “matured.” She added that the lad does not mind being in a relationship with a celebrity, sharing: “Sabi niya, ready naman na daw siya kasi mahal niya ako.”

The 47-year-old Reeves is no longer a stranger to May-December love affairs.

In 2013, she introduced the then 19-year-old Kevin Mercado as her boyfriend. Reeves said they first met in a party where Mercado was one of the visitors. When she saw Mercado, the comedienne gets attracted to him recalling “it was love at first sight.”

TREATMENT There is no known cure for distemper. The treatment plan provides supportive care and alleviates the symptoms, Dr. Cerdy Deloso says.

Dr. Deloso says they provide the following, among others: 1. Intravenous fluid to prevent dehydration and when the dog is not eating or has diarrhea.

2. Antibiotic to prevent secondary bacterial infection.

3. Meds to control convulsions and seizures.

4. Supplements like multivitamin and minerals to strengthen the immune system.

5. Mucolytic to help the dog breathe.

6. Medicine for fever.

7. An analgesic helps relieve body pains.

8. Immunoglobulins like Canglob.

9. The vet may opt for sears serum or other anti-viral

drugs.

The vet will monitor your dog specifically for signs of pneumonia.

“A dog’s chances for surviving canine distemper will depend on the strain of the virus and the strength of the dog’s immune system,” PetMD says.

PLEASE CONSULT A VET FOR THE BEST TREATMENT PLAN FOR YOUR DOG. THE KIND OF MEDS, WHEN IT SHOULD BE GIVEN, AND THE DOSAGE WILL DEPEND ON THE STAGE OF ILLNESS, THE STRAIN, AND THE CONDITION OF THE DOG. It adds: “Recovery is entirely possible, although seizures and other fatal disturbances may occur two to three months after recovery.”

A dog who has fully recovered from the virus do not spread the virus.

But why wait for the virus to hit your dog? Please, have your dog vaccinated now.

PIA WURTZBACH

QUEEN OF THE CENTURY Comedienne Cacai Bautista

By Nickie Wang

S

IT’S NOT YET OVER FOR AHRON AND CACAI

HE stands 5-foot-8, with big bosom, a 23-inch waistline, and a pert posterior – an hourglass physique made for the most beautiful woman in the universe. Yes, that’s Pia Wurtzbach and her incredible curves.

Asked how she got that whistle bait body, the beauty queen, who was a victim of body shaming a few years ago, said it involved a lot of hard work in the gym.

With a help of a personal trainer, Pia heads to the gym regularly, where she engages in a combination of planking to tone her mid-section, tricep pull-downs to define her arms, as well as squats and lunges to make her legs look firm and strong.

But Pia is not just all about her sensational physique. Even if she is not wearing a skimpy bikini, she exudes an appeal that made her one of the most admired personalities of her generation. She’s a determined and strong-willed person, smart and eloquent, a woman of substance. After all, she’s a former Miss Universe, a title 42 other Filipino beauty queens failed to bring home.

The Filipino and German mutt began acting at an early age and stepped in as her family’s bread winner at 11. Starting in showbiz as Pia Romero, she was managed by Star Magic and was included in the Star Circle Batch 11. She appeared in a string of television shows and movies including the teen-oriented series K2BU, the concert variety program ASAP, the romance anthology Your Song, the sitcom show Bora, and the drama series Sa Piling Mo, and Kung Ako Na Lang Sana (2003), All My Life (2004), and All About Love. She even became a stylist, makeup artist and beauty writer for a national daily.

Thank-you-girl no more But her real break came when she won Miss Universe Philippines after her third attempt at the coveted crown in Binibining Pilipinas pageant. The victory at the national pageant earned her ticket to the Miss Universe 2015 beauty contest, which she eventually dominated after the dramatic and now infamous crowning moment.

As Miss Universe, she continued her advocacy on HIV and Aids awareness visiting different countries and territories to further her cause. After her reign ended, she signed with the New York-based talent management group IMG, and still continued to work with the Miss Universe Organization (MUO). She then was named a UNAIDS Goodwill Ambassador for Asia and the Pacific “It was a remarkable year. I’ve really grown as a woman. I learned so many things. This actually opened a lot of doors for me,” Pia said in one of her interviews with Steve Harvey.

The Queen Now that Pia is back home, she’s been busy with her showbiz commitments. She’s currently preparing for the Metro Manila Film Festival entry starring alongside Vice Ganda and Daniel Padilla.

She’s also appeared in numerous ads being a trusted name by companies to represent their products and services. Most recent of which is Century Tuna that aptly named the 27-year-old beauty the “Queen of the Century.”

“We’re thrilled to have Pia Wurtzbach in the Century Tuna family,” beams Greg Banzon, Century Pacific Foods, Inc. General Manager. “Pia is indeed ‘The Queen of the Century,’ the epitome of a mutli-faceted woman who excels in a variety of fields while staying fit and sexy.”

A statement from the leading tuna canning company furthers, “Together with, of course, her ravishing looks—her poise, style, and grace—her talents and intelligence, it is Pia’s commitment to self-discipline and physical fitness that brought her into the Century Tuna fold.”

NADINE LUSTRE’S

STUNNING PHOTOGRAPHS IT’S no surprise to Nadine Lustre’s growing 4 million followers on Instagram that she has a true photographer’s eye. Her Instagram is a collection of perfectly captured snapshots from priceless trips, iconic OOTDs, and flawless selfies with her loved ones.

The Viva talent and FHM’s sexiest woman will continue to shoot breathtaking photographs and listen to her favorite music using her favorite Sony products as she renews her ties with Sony Philippines. At an event at Seda Vertis North in Quezon City, the 23-year-old multimedia artist couldn’t hide her excitement as she continues on as Sony’s Brand Endorser for Digital Imaging and Personal Audio lines.

“It brings me great pride to be part of the Sony family

again,” Nadine shares. “It excites me to be able to do the things I love—take photographs, listen to music, and dance to my favorite songs—using some of the best and most exciting products in the market right now,” adds Nadine.

Sony shares Nadine’s excitement. “Nadine’s dynamic personality and innate love for music and photography strongly resonates our target market here in the Philippines. Having someone like Nadine as our endorser has helped us connect with a new breed of customers and generate significant growth for our Personal Audio and Digital Imaging categories. We are ecstatic to have her in the Sony family once again.” says Sony Philippines Managing Director, Nobuyoshi Otake.

Like her beau, Nadine Lustre is also a budding photographer

We are seeing a word war going to erupt anytime soon between former “BFFs” Ahron Villena and Cacai Bautista.

And the internet is watching for every development.

In a recent interview with ABS-CBN Push, the comedienne revealed some telling statements that may have hinted something about Ahron’s sexuality.

Before the rehearsals for Cacai’s upcoming show in Resorts World Manila, the diminutive comedienne was interviewed regarding her past relationship with the hunk actor. She revealed that they have already made amends.

“Matagal na naman din kami nag-sorry sa isa’t isa. Kasi minsan kahit na mag-sorry parang gusto mo pa ipatumba di ba? Wala siyang pinakilala. Sinagot ko na yan dati kasi alam ko naman yun and accepted ko naman kung ano man siya, bakla ba siya o ano. Tanggap ko naman.”

This statement fumed Ahron and prompted him to air his side on Twitter.

“There are always two sides to every story. Tangap mo kung ano ako? Saan galing ‘yun? Bakit ano ba ang alam mo sa pagkatao ko? Naging tayo ba? Ako ang alam ko never naging tayo.

Nanahimik ako kasi marunong akong rumespeto sa babae,” his socmed post said.

In 2014, an entertainment writer released a blind item about the actor claiming that the he is gay. Then in 2016, his Instagram feed became a subject of numerous speculations about his sexual orientation.

He’s been spotted vacationing in Europe with a hunky non-showbiz friend whom he tagged as a very good friend and travel buddy.
