Sitti can do without 'Wowowee'

Sitti, the “First Lady of Philippine Bossa Nova,” as director Calvin Neria put it, has retired from her hosting duties in Wowowee. This in lieu of her upcoming birthday concert at the Captain’s Bar, Mandarin Oriental, Manila, on Nov. 29. She said Wowowee was too strenuous for her, especially to her voice. The first day she was just talking, but two days after that, she was already shouting as loudly as Valerie Concepcion. She says she prefers hosting to acting. Hosting takes five hours at the most, but taping requires her to be on the set for a whopping 24 hours. She loves singing the most, since she is usally done after two hours. The three-part concert will trace Sitti’s lounge bar roots, walk through her bossa nova present, and look into her pop jazz future.

Scotiabank drops option to buy U.S. bank assets

There's little chance Bank of Nova Scotia will take the plunge and buy a U.S. bank, its chief executive officer says. "Especially with what's developed over the last several weeks, it's very unlikely we would have any interest," CEO Richard Waugh said in an interview yesterday. When the value of U.S. financial institutions began to plummet, Scotiabank was one of the first to go shopping. It took a good look at Cleveland-based lender National City Corp. in the spring. But the U.S. government's recent decision to inject capital into American banks has nearly knocked Canadians out of the running in the race for U.S. regional assets, Mr. Waugh said. He acknowledges the cheap prices of U.S. banks did make the idea of an acquisition "intriguing." But after mid-September "when the American banks were given substantial amounts of equity from the

Apparently this delightfully silly viral ad is part of a promotional campaign to encourage tourists to visit Nova Scotia. Complete nonsense of course but then, given how many young professionals can be seen yapping on their handsets in the queue for Starbucks, it’s surely only a matter of time before some enterprising god like genuis makes this handset a reality. Actually, probably not…
