Auratech's Fotogo Pocket Photo Printer


Fast mobile printing for waterproof images

Turn your phone into a mini mobile office with the latest mobile photo printer when you own a FotoGo by Auratech  

Not all the pics we take are to be shared on social media sites like Facebook. Some things we want to keep private like that special date, a prospective project site, a new product, and we cant store these on our phone. What if we want to share a picture to someone who doesn't have a phone? 

We capture pics on our mobile phones to store and save digitally. We might have access to photo printing. Yet, wouldn't it be great to own a printer that you can take wherever you go?

See how handy the FotoGo is? 

And the kind of photo you will get printed out in a minute? Waterproof!

These print out 2.1” x 3.4” sticker photos which are waterproof and finger-print proof! What is great is that the printing time is less than a minute! Now that is fast. The process goes from white, to red, then to yellow, to create the vibrant colored photo, and then it is sealed to become waterproof.

To use the Auratech’s Fotogo Pocket Photo Printer requires Bluetooth connection to the FotoGo app that is available on both Google Play and the Apple Store. You can edit the photos using the app to even add emojis and captions - then share it everywhere.



Own your personal photo booth for work or  for play! 
Have the option to print while on the go, with your very own FotoGo!

FotoGo is going to be available soon for only Php 5,999.

XLOG: End-to-End Logistical Solutions Provider



Manila, Philippines - For people that have experience with shipping and logistics, they would know that the process can be challenging, to say the least.  From trying to find the right supplier that delivers good service at a fair price, to the constant fear of having goods stolen while in transit, it can really be a pain.

With this in mind, Shiptek Solutions Corp., a homegrown technology company, had just announced their solution that looks to revolutionize the shipping and logistics forever.

Meet XLOG - the first ever end-to end logistical solutions provider.

XLOG aims to become a catalyst of business success by making logistics work for you, not against you.  It is designed to take away all the challenges of logistics, giving businesses one less thing to worry about.

"Being in the Shipping and Logistics industry for 24 years now, I've seen all the problems encountered by both shippers and service providers, which served as our inspiration, " says XLOG founder and CEO, Jun Ynion.

"We created XLOG with the goal of bringing Shipping and Logistics into the digital age by creating an online marketplace for both companies that offer and for companies that require such services.  By consolidating all these services on one single platform, it will allow for a simplified process, better tracking and security, and ease of transaction documentation.  This is the next step for the shipping and logistics industry,"

Based on current practices, an average rate request would take at least 1 day to get a standard quotation, and an additional 1.5 days for renegotiated rates.  Beforehand, a customer would have       to email/contact multiple providers to ask whether they serve such lane or not.  These are not the only deciding factor when it comes to choosing the best service partner.  One would have to consider transit times, gate-in deadlines, and other charges which one might have to renegotiate for.  This again would take 1 more day the most.  With XLOG, the entire process is cut down to just 1.5 days by providing an instant quotation to customers from multiple service partners that offers their specific needs.  XLOG helps you make the right decision by providing and instant rate quotation depending on your specific needs.  We reduce the back-and-forth process by laying down all the information needed for a customer to make a decision and we allow customers to input renegotiation requests.  All of this is done in just one click of the submit button and once the service partner receives these information, all he can do is accept/reject.

FINDING THE RIGHT PARTNER
XLog provides shippers a wide range of services and vendors to choose from.  This allows for securing the best possible rates with reputable service providers.

SECURING GOODS
XLog guarantees safety and security for goods in transit with its extensive GPS tracking feature.  Not only will it let shippers know when goods have gone from point A and arrived at point B, but XLog has the capability to showthe exact location of the goods in real time.

EFFICIENT AND QUICK TRANSACTIONS
XLog makes transactions hassle-free and faster than ever by allowing all negostiations and deals to be done online, no actual papers required!  Also, every transaction reference is automatically stored in the XLOG system, easy to come back to in the future.

Through XLOG , businesses, booth shippers and service providers, will now be able to move faster and safer than ever.  This is the future of shipping and logistics.

This is XLOG.

XLOG: Anti-Smuggling, Lost in Transit Solutions and More

Shipping with transparency 

In these times when the call to honesty is a must, it is made possible for shipments to be tracked and the inventory to be itemized from point of origin to port - and further. 
XLOG Jun Ynion and the staff meeting with UnionBank President and CEO, Edwin R. Bautista, 

A sophisticated logistics website like XLOG gets rid of the clutter of the massive documentation for shipping and while that is being done, it greatly reduces the documents mishandling that can also be the cause of extra "hidden" fees, holding or reduction of cargo for "donation", and the hustle and shuffle of documents being handed over from one to another to be scrutinized and found flaw with. 

As we might be aware, the loading on top of the declared cargo is common practice. Many are in on the take and that system has been integrated for years. With customs duties and taxes needing to be paid, with XLOG, it get rids of the headache for honest customs officials to do their job. It also provides a way for nearly anyone to be able to ship cargo on their own, with a database of reliable service providers.

As the smuggling anywhere in the world is prevalent, even those honest transactions do experience extra loading of cargo without their knowledge.What is dangerous about this things happening is that a container can be loaded with contraband or even drugs.

As we might know, every single steps of shipping can be a hassle. The time it takes is long, the documents voluminous, the communication can be erroneous. XLOG provides solutions.

Author's note: I cannot stress enough the importance of transparency. This would facilitate an honest system. It is possible to use XLOG for solving a lot of prevalent problems.

The issue is - it might not be acceptable as there are the "ways and means" that is integrated in to the shipping system. But, we have to look to the future and gain an impeccable reputation. Honesty has a place in the industry - and corruption can be erased - though it might seem difficulty because of the syndicates.

As we push harder, we should have no fear. As a locator for Hidemitsu Trading, SBMA, my family has thrived and yet still suffered to experience millions lost because of unscrupulous officials and unknown spirits.

Though I have cried because the attorney that I was taking to for our 16 million commission claim was ambushed the very same night, and we still are wondering who is driving our black benz that was held, as the graveyard of our LPG cars remain near PTT, 5 in Upper Mau, 40 vehicles more registered under our name that are missing, and one white benz that has been lost  - as my father, Engr.  Alonso Dominguez had said when we were accused of smuggling out the 16 high end cars out of Subic that we left unsmashed in the warehouse during the time of Gloria... of which we still have a claim worth millions as we chased the partners that smuggled these out of SBMA...

"I am not a smuggler. I am a God-fearing man."

Let us work together to integrate XLOG and other similar checkpoints for our reputation to be spotless and for the best interest of all those concerned.

Essential Oils - EO Philippines


Pain. Stress. Depression. A cure is needed. Relief is sought. There is pain relief, cures, and over-all wellness that may help one live a longer and healthier life.

There are so many sad stories about how medication seems to no longer work. Do we have to reach that point in time where we get desperate for a cure? Can we take action to make the necessary changes in our lives? 

Yet, there are times that we are inflicted with health problems that are hereditary or those that we are exposed. We can point-blame, we may target all the causes, and still feel that we are not doing enough for ourselves and our loved one.

Face The Daily Challenges, Naturally

With the world we live in, it might seem to be a challenge yet there is an easy way to have the very air that we breathe one that makes us feel more energized and address other issues such as wanting to sleep.

As the trend is for a healthy lifestyle, to include our food and beverage consumption, being fit, and taking health supplements, and as we still must follow our doctor's advice to the letter, we may desire to fill our homes and other places that we go to with wonderful aromatherapeutic scents to bring about an additional level of feeling good and aid in us getting well.

Our experience with essential oils, especially since we are Filipino, started off since our infancy. Our grandmothers were firm believers in rubbing oil on a baby's stomach to prevent and stop colic attacks and placing oil on the chest and on the back for preventing respiratory problems. As we got older, the cold treatment would be a rub that works as a vaporizer. And, we would even be told to drink a hot citrus fruit drink to get rid of a cold. These and more natural cures worked - and now are within easy reach, from various plant extracts.

Even ancient cultures used essential oils for treatments and cure. Note that the first medicines that were used were mostly plant-based and up to today, many of the medicine that we can purchase from the pharmacy do have herbal ingredients.

Being aware that essential oils are commonly used for cures and treatments, we are also aware that there are some that are made with quality and some that diluted - and that affects the effectivity. We might also be aware that we do have some aromatic oils that seem to diffuse into the air so fast that those lose there scent. And, did you know that some essential oils can be taken internally?

Drops That Make The Difference


doTERRA provides the most tested, and most trusted essential oils on the market through careful sourcing and production. Learn how families and individuals are using dōTERRA products to empower themselves and others with these amazing gifts of the earth. With doTERRA, you can be ready for anything.

This US based company provides us with excellent essential oils. These are high -grade, and tested for the ideal extract composition and efficacy using the Certified Pure therapeutic Grade quality protocol

There are 2 process that are used to create these essential oils which are distillation and cold press. Though the amount of herbs to be processed to make even 1 ml of oil varies, it does adhere to the correct amount required to be considered as pure.

Longer lasting scents, faster delivery of the therapeutic properties, this brand of essential oils has a whole range of plant extracts and blends for use as a natural cure, treatment, pain relief, aromatherapy, and more. 


These essential oils can be taken internally. Take a moment to consider the essential oils that we place in many of our food products, like vanilla, lemon, and orange, and those are a few of the plant extracts available from doTERRA.

State of the Market

IAGTO will announce at AGTC: “In 2017, IAGTO’s 686 international golf tour operators recorded an 8.8% growth in golf vacation sales, marking six years of consecutive growth in this high revenue, low impact, tourism sector.

“In January this year, forward bookings taken by golf tour operators were up 10.8% compared to the same time last year. Golf courses, golf resorts and hotels in Asia reported golf visitor arrivals up 9.2% in 2017, demonstrating that golf travel continues to outstrip the growth of general leisure tourism by a significant margin.”

Some 600 delegates from 36 countries meet each year at IAGTO's Asia Golf Tourism Convention where golf tour operators have 2 days of back to back meetings for golf tourism suppliers from across the Asia Pacific region

IAGTO CEO Quotes

IAGTO Chief Executive, Peter Walton, will say: “Thanks to the efforts of the Philippines Department of Tourism and its Tourism Promotion Board, the world’s leading golf tour operators will see for themselves an amazing array of golf experiences – including the Tagaytay Highlands, Clark/Angeles City and Metro Manila – for the first time, in the case of the majority of them. At the convention itself, close to 1,000 meetings will take place between international tour operators and Philippine golf course, hotels, inbound operators and other golf tourism suppliers. I have no doubt that this will lead to an immediate and sustainable growth in golf tourism to the Philippines.”

He added: “Golfers spend 120% more per person per day in destination compared to general leisure tourists – more than double! This is revenue for the country’s tourism industry and not just the golf courses, as 75% of spend is concentrated on hotels, restaurants, shopping and transportation.”

Toxic Chemicals in Water

Water is water no matter how much particles are in it to be identified as foul or clean. Toxic liquids can be added to water and not be noticed, turning it into poison. Water does get contaminated and needs to be treated to make it safe enough to drink and be used. In 1854, the sewers contaminated the water which led to a cholera epidemic.

The water purification method that was used was to add chlorine. In the recent years, it was discovered that chlorine disinfection brings about the formation of trihalomethane, which may cause cancer. The health benefits of cleaning water with chemicals clearly have their drawbacks.

Filtering Water of Impurities

Trying to figure out if the water is safe often is not a viable option as the continuous flow of good, clean water is necessary for any home, establishment, facility, or institution. Though public drinking water comes up to standard, many choose to use filters to get rid of the impurities.

As we steer away from chemicals that do add to the toxins in our body system, the very basic thing that we need to live might be still treated with chemicals.

Author's note:

Recently experiencing foul water running from the pipes in a residential area, it is a must that awareness is there. There are ways to clean the water - though as I said before, historically, Philippine tap water is safe.

Author's Note: Filipino food products are typically home industries. Paving the way to exporting a wide range of products and making it available to the local market, Sitsirya Sari Sari has indeed uplifted this struggling industry. For 17 years, product development has brought about a formidable inventory of our very own food products, from various regions.

The consistency of quality, the correctness of the weight, the presentation, and the food product itself meet and exceed expectations. Knowing that production was done with cleanliness and proper food handling is also the advantage of buying these products.
