Creamy Delight Preps you for Summer

Summer means sexy bods here, there and everywhere. That Is why im giving way to this article for we - yes! we! - will conquer the beaches.

After months on end munching on salty treats, summer is knocking on our doors again to remind us to get back into shape. The usual and fastest way people achieve this is through calorie cutting and pushing your body to the limit. But these tactics usually result into putting your body in a worse condition as abrupt starvation and too much workout can unnecessarily stress your body.

Non-Fat

Another taboo in the getting-into-shape-mania is that you should refrain from snacks as if they are immediately synonymous with unhealthy foods or the worse one, starving yourself. However, thanks to technology, we can still enjoy the leisure of snacking while keeping our health and shape in check. Thanks to pasteurization, a technological breakthrough that can assist us in our summer diet,our favorite snack that fills us up and keeps our health in check is now more available than before. This process heats up food and sterilizes it, all while preserving nutrients and enabling it to have longer shelf life.

Regular / Original

The one snack that you can now enjoy to help you get into a sexy summer body is pasteurized yogurt Creamy Delight. Each cup is filled with vitamins and nutrients to give you the extra energy you need to push through your stressful day and straight to your after-work activities. With a low sodium percentage, it ensures that your body absorbs all these nutrients faster and better. Compared with other unhealthy snacks we usually binge on, it’s better to munch on something handy, healthy, and unbelievably light. Now you can enjoy long-lasting energy to spend that quality time with your family while rocking that sexy bod!

Thick and Creamy

With four variants to choose from, you’ll never get bored. You have thick and creamy for that extra yogurt goodness, the original non-traditional yogurt perfect for bonding with the family, the non-fat for those who are going the extra mile to rock their bikinis, and the ever so delicious Creamy Delight for kids with real pureed fruit flavor to entice and energize your active kids all throughout their day. Whether you go for one or all four, your back-to-shape program is safe from disintegrating from its goals.

Yogi Kids

You can get your Creamy Delight fix in your favorite convenient stores and sari-sari stores all over the country. Keep it sweet, keep it sexy, and keep it healthy with Creamy Delight!

Nokia X launched in the Philippines

Nokia today announced the launch of Nokia X, part of the new Nokia X family of affordable smartphones that run Android™ apps, in the Philippines. This new device is the perfect introduction to the world of Android apps, coupled with signature Nokia experiences, and the most popular Microsoft services.

The Nokia X features Nokia’s renowned quality and design, with a fresh, tile-based user interface inspired by our Lumia family. It comes with Fastlane, a screen that lets people switch between their favorite apps more smoothly. People can access curated, quality-tested apps from Nokia Store, more than a dozen third-party app stores and by sideloading. All devices are also pre-loaded with a variety of very popular third-party apps and games.

“We believe this unique combination will resonate with consumers around the world and set a great precedent for the level of quality that can be achieved in the fast-growing, affordable smartphone segment.” said Gary Chan, Head of Marketing, Pan Asia, Nokia.

“We are happy to be one of the first countries to launch the much anticipated Nokia X,” said Karel Holub, General Manager, Philippines, Nokia. “The Nokia X would be a great device for Filipinos with Fastlane, signature Nokia experiences and a number of third party apps, in addition to a sturdy and attractive build at an affordable price.”

Out of the box, users can enjoy signature Nokia experiences including free* HERE Maps, with true offline maps and integrated turn-by-turn navigation, and Nokia MixRadio for free music streaming and downloadable playlists. The Nokia X is also an affordable introduction to popular Microsoft services, including free cloud storage using OneDrive.

The Nokia X, a beautifully crafted smartphone with Nokia’s signature design approach and bold, bright colors. At only 10.4mm thin, the slim, durable monobody design features a 4” capacitive WVGA touch screen that provides great readability, and exchangeable back covers that come in a variety of statement colors. Inside, the device runs on the Nokia X Software Platform and is powered by a 1Ghz dual core Qualcomm Snapdragon processor.

The Nokia X features two screens: home, which features a fresh, tile-based design and Fastlane. Fastlane is a dynamic record of how people use their phone, day-by-day, moment-by-moment. It captures everything people love: they need only to swipe once from the home screen to access Fastlane, see a record of recent activity, and switch between their favorite apps, smoothly. Fastlane has been completely re-imagined for the
Nokia X family. People can return a missed call by calling or texting, accept or decline calendar invitations, or control the music player – all from within the Fastlane view. Fastlane is also more customizable and social-friendly than ever. People can select what appears on their Fastlane feed, read notifications from their social networks and update their status from within Fastlane, making the experience even more productive.

In the afternoon, seminars organized by the Big 4 will also be held, in between various games and raffle events. Plus the “Bidang Barangay” contest will kick off, pitting 4 groups against each other to earn the right to be called “Bidang Barangay.”

For the second day, people from Cagayan de Oro City and the rest of Mindanao will get to know more about the “Original na Bida” campaign through interviews with the Big 4 representatives. More raffle draws, exciting games, plus electrifying performances from guest artists also marks Day 2 of the event.

Finally, Day 3 will feature, aside from more raffles, games and musical entertainment, the finals of the Bidang Barangay contest and a scintillating “fliptop” (rap battle) that will feature YouTube Pinoy rap sensation “Abra” and his partners, Loonie and Band. They will engage in a literary battle using rap as their medium. Expect the crowd to get pumped up as they deliver a one-of-a-kind performance rarely seen nowadays.

Now on its third year, the “Original na Bida” campaign aims to educate motorists that Japanese manufacturers make the best motorcycle units and spare parts because these underwent thorough studies, using the latest research and development technologies in order to assure safety, high quality and premium design more consistently than other low-quality motorbike brands.

The same companies are also known to observe strict compliance with government regulations and standards. That’s why customers are assured of riding high-quality motorcycles in the country.

With the success of the safety and quality campaign, the “Original na Bida” drive has gained support from thousands of motorcycle enthusiasts in various media platforms and other concerned groups for the past 2 years for its noteworthiness and timeliness. Many agree that it is really an advantage to own original motorcycle units as they cited its inherent durability and reliability.
