Coachella 2012 Was a Smashing Success

Needless to say, the two-weekend Coachella Arts and Music Festival recently held in the desserts of Indio, California was very successful.

For the first time, the festival organizers separated the event into two so they were able to accommodate more performers from different music genre. The Coachella stage was just as star-studded as the audience where famed actors and actresses on TV and the big screen as well as singers and musicians joined everyone on the ground in order to enjoy the performances.

For such a large audience and open-air performances, their audio equipment must be state of the art, much like those of JBL Pro Audio. I am pretty sure that JBL has some products there in the gadgets used during the event. It is hard to say but with a trusted name like JBL, they are pretty sure to be present in such important musical events.

I would want to try visiting the Coachella if given the chance. But I will make sure that I stay on the sidelights so that I can easily slip away anytime in case I was to leave.

HAPI Homeschooling Conference in May 2012

I am giving way for a press release from Geiser Maclang about a homeschooling conference that will happen next month.

HAPI Homeschooling Conference

HAPI Homeschooling Conference

The Homeschooling Association of the Philippine Islands (HAPI) recently made announcements that the country’s 4th Homeschooling Conference has been scheduled to happen on May 19, 2012. Set to take place at St. Francis Square Ortigas Center in Mandaluyong, the event will gather parents, academe, and homeschooling experts in one venue to promote awareness of the program, as well as provide guests with access to homeschool-related tools and services.Homeschooling is a practice that, over the years, has rapidly gained popularity in the Philippines. Providing children with a familiar and relaxed learning environment that allows parents to tailor-fit certain aspects of their education based on their needs, remote education shatters the long-standing concept that prime education happens only within the confines of the classroom, and is also proven to unlock certain hidden potentials of the student—presenting more room for growth and enhancement.

This year’s Homeschooling Conference is themed “Laying a Strong Foundation.” It will feature lectures from esteemed homeschooling authorities both here and abroad including: noted inspirational speaker, best-selling author and homeschool parent, Bo Sanchez; and former high school and college educator and best-selling author of award-winning books like “Ultimate Guide to Homeschooling,” “Ultimate Guide to Homeschooling Teens,” and “Ultimate Planners for Moms, Teens and Students,” Debra Bell.

The event is supported by the 3,000-strong force of Filipino families, who are currently homeschooling by choice and discovering its priceless benefits.
