Coffee beans get their flavor from the climate where they are grown. The Blue Mountains in Jamaica offer some of the finest coffee beans ever found. The Blue Mountains are named for the blue mist that hovers over the mountains at all times. Located on the beautiful island of Jamaica, these mountains offer the perfect climate for growing fantastic coffee beans. This lush, tropical region benefits from plenty of rainfall, giving the soil the rich quality needed for growing the gourmet Blue Mountain coffee.
The beautiful Blue Mountains stand at almost 7,500 feet above the sea and make a stunning backdrop for the pristine white beaches These mountains house over 194,000 acres which are protected as part of the rain forests. There are many different species of birds and plants which can only be found in these mountains.
Blue Mountain coffee beans were originally brought to the Jamaican Islands by Sir Nicholas Lawes who hoped the climate would prove productive for these special beans. Since 1728 these beans have continued to produce extremely well and today coffee is the biggest export of these islands. Blue Mountain coffee is one of the most sought after coffees in the world and Japan imports a large part of this coffee.
Blue Mountain coffee offers a bold, rich taste which is also smooth and sweet. It is grown on small farms instead of being mass produced. Often it is difficult to obtain because of the high demand for the succulent flavor which can only be found in the Jamaican mountain ranges. It is often referred to as the champagne of coffees because of its bold, rich taste. It is also one of the most expensive coffees in the world.
The Threat to Blue Mountain Coffee's Existence
Blue Mountain coffee is closely monitored by local Jamaican officials to insure the supreme quality associated with its name. These officials grade the quality of the coffee bean before they place it in specific categories. There is close regulation with strict rules which must be met before the coffee bean is offered for sale.
Recent climate changes have posed a threat to Jamaica's most precious resource. Hurricane Ivan posed a real threat to not only the coffee industry, but the islands themselves. Ivan is just one of a long line of hurricanes which have threatened the islands over the span of only a few years. In 1988 Hurricane Gilbert caused considerable damage to the coffee crop which resulted in a drastic price increase. Each time the island sustains a hit it takes longer for them to rebound which in turn makes the Blue Mountain coffee almost as precious as gold.

Newspapers soon to be a thing of the past?
From Personal Computer World 14/03/08:
The younger generation of internet users are more likely to avoid traditional print media and get all their news online, according to research from comScore.
Meanwhile, heavy newspaper readers are more likely than average to engage with traditional print news brands online.
But the internet represents a significant opportunity to extend and improve existing news brands and reach out to new consumers with living, breathing, real-time content.
Just because print circulations are declining does not mean there are fewer news consumers. In fact, just the opposite is true.
For the past several years, I've relied increasingly heavily on the net to keep up to date with news. Save for the odd train journey, say, I never actually buy a hard copy newspaper now – and why would I? You can get the same content for free, faster, in a format that's vastly superior, doesn't degrade or get dog-eared and is readily searchable with a couple of keystrokes. As if that wasn't enough, it's eco-friendly and doesn't leave your hands grubby with newsprint. So everyone's a winner, right?
I suspect the majority of people in my age bracket have similar consumption habits for news and I think it's clear that the world is fast heading towards an almost paper-free news delivery solution. As a consumer of news it's an exciting time; there has never been such an array of choice for the delivery of news, nor has there ever been a faster service or greater convenience in obtaining it.
Nowadays on the net, news is everywhere, and in a whole manner of formats on an ever increasing amount of hardware. Of course, as well as sources relying on the written word, presenter-fronted and podcast formats are becoming just as ubiquitous on the internet, too. What with mobile computing growing at an alarming rate, it seems clear that the days of newsprint-stained fingers are definitely numbered.

Members, alumni, family and friends of the Geneseo physics department gathered on Jan. 31 for the third annual Women in Physics Mixer. Among those in attendance were eight undergraduates that had attended the East Coast Conference for Undergraduate Women in Physics at SUNY Stony Brook over winter break. According to the American Physical Society, eight national conferences took place as part of the Conferences for Undergraduate Women in Physics, one of them held in Stony Brook, home to the famous Brookhaven National Laboratory.
The eight physics majors that attended were freshman Hannah Harrison, sophomore Dana Cody, juniors Mollie Bienstock and Angela Simeone and seniors Sara Gearhart, Mary Keenan-Brown, Angela Paolucci and Kirstin Barber. Sophomore Amy Walters attended the CUWiP at the University of Maryland. All conferences took place between Jan. 17 and Jan. 19.
"Students took the initiative," Department Chair of Physics Charlie Freeman said. "The women applied for funding through APS and the rest of the department helped with the travel expenses."
According to Freeman, this was the first time students ever attended the conference.
"I loved learning and seeing all the opportunities for physics majors," Cody said. "Now I can see myself working in the industry."
Out of the hundreds who attended the Stony Brook conference, Geneseo sent the greatest number of students; most schools only had two or three representatives.
Harrison was the only freshman out of the Geneseo attendees. She said that, two years ago, she didn't know what physics was until one of her high school teachers introduced her to the subject. After that, she took both Advanced Placement physics courses her school offered and decided physics was her future. She enjoyed the lab and appreciated the exposure to different careers and networking opportunities.
"I really liked the trip because I got to know the other physics majors," Harrison said. "I only met one other freshman at the conference."
The students were brought on tours of the lab where they saw innovative light sources under construction and students witnessed engineering firsthand. The conference also gave attendees the chance to hear notable guest speakers in the field of physics and participate in educational activities.
According to Freeman, many women experience discrimination in the fields of science, especially in physics, which leads to low enrollment.
Women are also the minority in the field of physics. According to the American Association of University Women, around 60 percent of biology graduates are women and around 50 percent of chemistry graduates are women, while only 20 percent of physics graduates are women.
Alumna Amanda Geniviva '11 said the amount of female physics majors has definitely increased at Geneseo since she graduated, and "the department here is truly great."
Overall, the number of women in the field of physics is steadily increasing, and the Geneseo physics department hopes to send more undergraduates to the conference next year.
"I always wanted to help the world," Harrison said. "Physics is how everything works. And what better way to help the world than to help people understand how it works."
Correction: The online version of this article reflects changes from the Feb. 6 issue that misquotes Department Chair of Physics Charlie Freeman. Freeman stated, "the women applied for funding through APS," not "the girls had applied for funding through APS," as indicated in the print version. Freeman also stated, "students witnessed engineering firsthand," not students saw "whiteness engineering firsthand."

Malva Pudding
250ml flour
5ml bicarb
20ml apricot jam
20ml butter
250ml sugar
5ml vinegar
1 egg
Cream butter, sugar and add egg. Slowly add bicarb, jam and vinegar. Gradually add the flour and milk. Bake at 180C for 30-40 minutes.
125ml butter
125ml sugar
125ml boiling water
250ml milk
5ml vanilla essence
Boil together and pour over the hot pudding as soon as it comes from the oven.
Notes :
I measure out all ingredients at the same time – so I have two bowls in front of me. One is the plastic mixing bowl and a glass bowl for the syrup. As I go along in the recipe I add the required amount to the correct bowl. The only item I leave out is the boiling water for the syrup as I add that only when I need to boil up the syrup.
The cooking time is a guideline so I usually set it for 35 minutes and then see if it needs more.
Make sure you stir up the syrup ingredients after adding the boiling water. Watch very carefully if you boil up the mixture in the microwave as it can very easily boil over.
Make sure your co-ordinate the boiling up of the syrup so that it is ready to be poured over the hot pudding once it is cooked.
After the syrup is poured over I use a knife to poke holes in the pudding so that the syrup can soak in.
This is a very easy and extremely delicious pudding. I serve it with homemade custard and it also tastes great with cream.

Warning of cold callers around Colsterworth and Swayfield claiming to be ex-prisoners
Throughout yesterday police received reports of men knocking on doors around Colsterworth and Swayfield, saying they had recently been released from prison and attempting to sell low value items.
The men made reference to having travelled from the Nottingham area, and although police are not aware of anyone having bought goods from them, they are asking the public to continue letting them know via the 101 number if further door knocking occurs.
Police believe that if they fail to sell in the area they will move on.

A massive shortage of airline fuel has caused major disruption and flight delays to occur at Melbourne Airport, the second busiest Airport in Australia and one which serves thousands of passengers from Europe every year.
The reason behind the shortage is believed to be because substandard fuel was delivered to the airport and airport testing procedures failed to adequate detect the substandard shipment. The lack of the proper type of aviation fuel will now require airplanes to divert to other airports to pick up the correct type of fuel.
According to the Australian Public Broadcaster ABC, the problems have caused an internal spat between cabinet ministers.
From abc.com.au
The ABC has been told that less than 2 million litres of aviation fuel is available at the country's second busiest airport after a shipment of imported fuel failed quality controls following its arrival by ship in Melbourne.
Victorian Minister Lily D'Ambrosio said she wrote to Federal Infrastructure and Transport Minister Darren Chester on October 17 requesting his immediate intervention.
"While Melbourne Airport falls under the jurisdiction of the Commonwealth, the Andrews Labor Government is willing to provide any assistance it can to ensure a prompt resolution," she said in a statement.
"I've also asked for an urgent meeting with Mr Chester to discuss the development of a plan for greater storage capacity and the need for competition among fuel suppliers."
The website also reported that the fuel problems will likely to be of great concern to International carriers.
Barry Abrams, executive director of the Board of Airline Representatives of Australia, said the fuel shortage was particularly troubling for international airlines and was likely to cause problems from as early as this afternoon.
"International airlines were last night advised that due to shortages in the supply of jet fuel to the airport, the National Operating Committee on Jet Fuel Supply Assurance changed the fuel supply status in Melbourne to a 'black traffic light' and immediate and deep fuel rationing," Mr Abrams said.
Mr Abrams, whose members spend more than $4 billion annually on fuel, said that the shortages were due to a failure to deal with known and avoidable fuel supply issues and were now undermining the growth of Victoria's aviation and tourism industries.
"There's a lack of urgency in addressing this issue and there has been no orderly investments to increase the capacity of the jet fuel infrastructure supply chain since the previous shortages in 2015, despite growing demand for jet fuel at Melbourne Airport," he said.

Why do we do Agile?
What problem does it solve? What benefits does it give? Why it's better than the Waterfall methods?
What are the core reasons to use it?
Surprisingly, this seemingly basic question turned out to be quite hard to answer for most candidates we interviewed for a Scrum Master position.
The candidates mentioned a lot of benefits: iterative development, self organized teams, direct communication, transparency, comfortable work environment, motivated developers. All of these are true. And all of these are valuable. But none of them is the goal of Agile. They are either the tools necessary to become Agile or nice side effects of being Agile – but not the core reasons to adopt it.
So why, in my opinion, do we do Agile?
As I see it, the goal of Agile methods is to provide a competitive advantage in an unpredictable, changing environment.
There are two fundamental elements in this statement.
First of all, the competitive advantage to us or our customer is paramount. Although working in an Agile environment is fun, we don't adopt Agile just for the sake of having fun. We adopt Agile to build products faster, better and cheaper than the competition. Forgetting about this fact leads to serious process dysfunctions and conflicts.
Second, we must understand that Agile methods were designed with an unpredictable, changing environment in mind. They don't solve the problem better than the Waterfall methods – they solve a completely different problem. While Waterfall assumes that software projects can be predicted and planned, Agile acknowledges that they are unpredictable and optimizes for being able to cope with unevitable changes cheaply and efficiently. However, such flexibility doesn't come for free. If we forget what's the intention of Agile, we may end up paying all the costs of being open for change without getting any of the benefits.
These two goals – providing competitive advantage and coping with unpredictability – are in my opinion the two pillars of Agile methods. Every other rule or benefit either supports them or results from them. If we forget about any of these two core reasons, we will never be able to reach the full potential of Agile.
Why do you do Agile? Do you agree with me or do you see it differently? Please share below in the comments!

The UK is still one of the world's main recipients of direct foreign investment despite remaining outside of the European single currency according to the Financial Times.
The FT says latest figures from United Nations Conference on Trade and Development reveals inward investment into the UK increased by 71 per cent in 1998 to £63.1bn from £36.9bn the previous year.
British campaigners against early participation in the Euro welcomed the figures as it disproved claims that investors would shy away from the UK unless it were to join the currency.

Dr Simon Barker
PhD, MSc, BSc (hons)
My academic background is in volcanology and igneous petrology with a strong foundation in geochemistry. I am originally from Auckland, where I did my undergraduate and honours degrees (Geology) at the University of Auckland. I moved to Wellington in 2009 to undertake MSc study at Victoria University, researching the petrogenesis of evolved, explosive magmas in the Kermadec arc. In 2011 I was awarded a Victoria Doctoral Scholarship to study the post-Oruanui supereruption recovery, reconstruction and evolution of Taupo volcano. After completion of my PhD I travelled in the USA and Canada before starting a post-doctoral research fellow position at the University of Auckland in 2015. I am currently researching trace element signatures of volcanic eruptions in speleothems around the TVZ to determine eruptive frequencies and environmental impacts of large silicic eruptions. I am also very interested in the petrogenesis of both mafic and silicic magmas in the Taupo Volcanic Zone. I have worked with a range of scientists from multiple institutions both in New Zealand (National Institute for Water and Atmosphere, Geological and Nuclear Sciences, Victoria University of Wellington) and worldwide (Stanford University, Australia National University, Open University, National Oceanographic Centre, University of Leeds, University of Bristol).

The Independent Wargames Group. Being a Journal of views, prejudices,ideas and photographs of wargaming not just nationwide, but hopefully world wide.The name IWG was adopted in the early 1980's in response to the then dominant Wargames Research Group, but things have moved on,and wargaming appears to be in somewhat of a Golden Age, so sit back and hopefully enjoy my rantings.

A Large Dollop of Nostalgia.
I have been looking for a new challenge ie. project and after a long think and such I finally decided on what I wanted to collect and paint next. I get a bit sniffy about words like 'project' and also announcements re such things because if one then fails to carry it through it basically makes a mockery of posting such things.
I basically wanted several things from my next painting project. It needed to be of historical interest to both me and John. It had to be doable. It also needed to have a set of wargames rules that I was happy with. More importantly it needed to be relatively cheap to complete and also be a pleasure to paint. Lets be right whats the point if there is no enjoyment in painting the figures.
So after being inspired by a wargamer who had just completed two English Civil Wars armies made up of Hinchliffe castings I got thinking about such a project. [I apologise for forgetting the blog, it was a wonderful achievement and deserves recognition.]
Ian Hinds was advertising a 25% reduction on Hinchliffe castings which are already pretty good value. I was always envious of John's wonderful Civil Wars armies that he painted back in the 1980's and of course the figures had been created by Peter Gilder.
Anyway I got down to the project....
I have now watched my Cromwell dvd to get a feel of the period. I have purchased another copy of Philip Haythornwaite's generic ECW book and I have set to it. To offset any would be detractor of my extensive research I would like to stress that my intention is to create two English Civil Wars armies, a la Hollywood.
So its going to be uniform regiments, bright colours and of course my favourite civil war regiments.Additionally I want to make these armies glossy. I cant replicate Gilder's of John's wonderful armies simply because I dont have their ability and also I no longer use enamels and oils. But I will give it my best shot.

From the Dean:
Our January 16 program of student organists was one of the best attended this program year. I believe it reflects on the high value we as guild members and our community at large place on our campus organ study programs. It also reflects on the value placed upon the contribution of these scholars to the churches they serve. The evening was very much enjoyed by attendees. The playing reflected an enthusiasm and a spirit that is exciting to hear. It gave us all hope for the future.
On February 20, we will again hear some fine playing, this time by several members of our chapter who are not students, but regulars from our area. The theme, "Music of the New Millennium, Music published in 2000 and beyond". A task that is becoming more difficult as we move into the 21st century is finding quality new literature for the organ. Not only has the volume of new publications declined greatly, the opportunities for locating this music for preview is diminishing. So, we thought it would be useful and interesting to present a group of new pieces our members have found, and to share that information with the whole membership. Publishers will be listed so folks who want to can order copies for themselves.
To that end, the following organists will present works for us: Pam Robison, Scott Foppiano, Sharon Hettinger, Ray Smith, Barbara Eichenberger, Ron Krebs, Rosi Penner Kaufman, Geoff Wilcken, and David Diebold. The literature they present will vary greatly. The music is accessible to most of us and to audiences we most often play to. Some are concert pieces. Most are useful for service playing.
Southminster Presbyterian Church, with Geoff Wilcken hosting, is the location. Please note that the location printed on the back of our Membership Directory is incorrect. The church is located at 6306 Roe Avenue, Prairie Village. Punch Bowl is at 6:00, dinner at 6:15, and the program is at 7:30. See you there.

The Board is looking for someone to direct Schola Cantorum. Schola is designed to be a mid-sized group of amateur and professional singers that perform diverse choral literature. The purpose of its existence is to provide education for both performers and audiences, opportunity for vocal performance, and joy that comes from participation. Anyone that is interested in this position or knows of someone that would be interested, please forward that information to the Board.
Celebrating its 1938 founding, the Greater Kansas City Chapter of the American Guild of Organists announces a 75th Anniversary Organ Composition Competition. The inaugural performance will be by a nationally recognized performing artist in Spring 2013 on a significant organ in the Greater Kansas City area. The single winning prize of $1,000 will be presented immediately following the public premier of the music. Travel compensation up to $600 will be added to the prize award.
The Chapter requests celebratory solo music suitable for most 2, 3 and 4 manual organs. Suggested duration is 5 to 8 minutes. Technical requirements should be Moderately Easy to Medium Difficult. The goal is original new music of strong audience appeal and performer interest, playable by most organists, to become part of the standard repertoire.
The entry fee is $10.00 for one work or $15.00 for two works. Composer identity must not appear on the musical manuscript. Entry forms identifying the title of the work and the composer must accompany each submitted score. Deadline for receiving entries is July 30, 2012.
Application materials with the address for submissions, entrance eligibility, entry forms, requirements, rules and judging criteria will be available at http://www.kcago.com/competition75.
Saturday, March 10 at 8pm this year promises to be a very exciting day for all Kansas City area organists and organ lovers! That day, at the new Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts, James David Christie will inaugurate the new spectacular 5,548 pipe Casavant Frères organ in Helzberg Hall. Due to unprecedented demand for tickets, a second performance has now been scheduled for the next day, March 11 at 7:30 pm since the first show has sold out. James Christie is one of the finest organists of his generation. He has served as organist of the Boston Symphony and has performed with many other major symphony orchestras. If you don't already have your tickets, you can get them online at www.kauffmancenter.org or by calling (816) 994-7222. Ticket prices start as low as $16. (Note from the editor – as of Bombarde publication, the second concert is sold out as well).
With busy student and family schedules, it is difficult for students to be able to get to a church to practice during the school year. As I notice students who seem to be good potential organists, I encourage them to begin organ lessons during the summer.
One of the ways we introduce young people to the organ is to have an organ camp. We usually have a 4 day organ camp the same week our church has Vacation Bible School. The organ camp is held from 1-3 in the afternoon and any child taking piano lessons is invited to participate. The first day, they are invited to bring their piano music and to play a favorite piece on the organ, experimenting with possible sounds. They are given a notebook and handouts each day which are filled in with information about the organ. They are also given some handouts with more information about organs. Each day they are given some playing time and some exploring time. Each student receives a copy of the Leupold "First Organ Book" (paid for in the fee for the camp). On the last day, near the end of the time, parents are invited to hear the students play one or two songs they have learned. These are recorded and transferred to a CD which the student may keep.
When the students are ready to begin organ lessons, they already have a book to begin study.
This basic idea could be used in any church and adapted for individual situations. The time to begin planning is now - set the date on the church calendar and begin publicity.

This next summer from July 15-20 the South Dakota Chapter of the American Guild of Organists will be sponsoring its sixth POE (Pipe Organ Encounter) on the campus of Augustana College in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. The students range in age from grades 7-12 and from those with no previous organ experience to those who have studied for a number of years and may already be playing in their home churches.
Many South Dakota chapter members will be teaching, but there will also be guest recitalists/teachers who will be involved , included are Christopher Marks of the University of Nebraska, and Larry Schou of the University of South Dakota, Tom Trenney from Plymouth Congregational in Lincoln, Nebraska, and Christian Lane from Yale University. With teachers and performers of this caliber, it will be an exciting week of classes, recitals, organ crawls, and worship experiences. Activities will include a tour of the National Music Museum on the campus of the University of South Dakota in Vermillion. While there, the students will have the opportunity to see and hear the many historical keyboards and experience playing the museum's gamelan. In addition, Tom Trenney will be working daily with the students on improvisation and one evening he will accompany a silent movie! During the week both Christopher Marks and Christian Lane will present recitals. All of the recitals, workshops, and worship services will be open to the public.
The POEs are a wonderful experience for young people--a time to learn more about the "King of Instruments" and improve their own playing skills. Every year the national organization of the American Guild of Organists helps to sponsor POE's around the country.

Pipedreams, the public radio program for lovers of the music of the pipe organ, celebrates its 30th anniversary on Sunday, Jan. 29, 4 p.m., with a free organ recital at St. Andrew's Lutheran Church in Mahtomedi, Minnesota. The program will feature performances by several notable regional organists, including Dr. Charles Echols (St. Cloud State University), Kathrine Handford (Lawrence University, Appleton, Wis.), Robert Vickery (Holy Childhood Church, Saint Paul), and Bill Chouinard (St. Andrew's Lutheran) as well as well-known vocalist Norah Long and the St. Andrew's Choir led by Jan Gilbertson. Pipedreams host Michael Barone also will perform.
On Sunday, March 11, 2012 at 9:00 pm on Kansas Public Radio, 91.5, Minnesota Public Radio host Michael Barone will present a special "Pipedreams Live!" event, as part of his radio program's 30th Anniversary! Enjoy organ music in its infinite variety each weekend with Pipedreams from American Public Media, broadcast weekly on our local NPR station, 91.5.
A special mid-year membership fee is being offered to anyone in our area who has an interest in organ or choral music. For the remainder of this program year (until July, 1212) interested people may join our chapter for a full membership at half the annual fee. Anyone may join. There are no exams, no required sponsorships, no prerequisites of educational or experience level. Only a love of music is required.
This becomes a special opportunity and incentive for our present members to contact musicians of churches who have not yet joined AGO. We encourage you to reach out to our colleagues in the community with an invitation to become a part of us. (You might even consider offering to pay half of their half-price fee?! That would only be $20.75 for a regular member or $9.25 for a student.)
Membership will include all the benefits and values of being a part of our active chapter: receipt of the TAO magazine and The Bombarde newsletter, help in learning of job openings, lists of persons available or substituting, etc., etc. These are well known to us, and we are anxious to share these valuable assets with other organists and choir directors in the community.
To join, all one has to do is agree to have their name and address sent to Pam Robison, who will forward to them a revised membership form to complete and return with their half-year fee. Special offer fees are:
|Join as a Regular, voting member, partial year
|Join as a Senior or Physically impaired member
|Join as a Student, partial year
|Join as a Partner, partial year
|Join as a Dual Member (with another chapter)
|Join as a Student, Dual Member
|Join as a Chapter Friend (no magazine)

This message was received by the Bombarde editor from an organist in St. Louis. I share the information here because there are those in our chapter who remember Bethel Knoche and her involvement in our chapter:
Please visit the channel http://www.youtube.com/user/KnocheCollection and share the hymn tunes with others. The channel is simply an initial effort to recall and record an amazing and influential history of music emanating from Independence, Missouri. The channel contains a collection of favorite hymn tunes illustrated in a contemporary context.
The recordings of the Auditorium Organ are from the two albums Bethel Knoche recorded in 1964 and 1966. Submitted by Matthew W. Ashby, St. Louis, MO
Several years ago, Thomas Greathouse went to great effort to catalogue a large collection of choral music that had been given to the Guild as a resource to lend to churches. We seem to have misplaced the two large binders that contain single copies of all of the anthems. If you have any information about the whereabouts of the binders or the current state of the collection, please contact the Dean. Thank you.

Special Course offered by Astro Help Centre
Destiny is a very big force so it is difficult to change the destiny but not impossible. Destiny can be changed by the native or by the writer of destiny i.e.When a patient visits a doctor to cure his disease at that time first of all doctor diagnoses the disease and after finding out the nature of problem he recommends the medicine. But if the disease has taken the chronic from he can also say that medical science cannot help this patient now.Similarly, if a man is having the death fear according to his horoscope in that situation the remedies of astrological science like recommendation of Mahamrityunjaya Yagya & Mahamrityunjaya Mantra can prevent the sudden death of accident etc, but if the age ofthat person according to his destiny is not more,this remedy won help him and in that situation only God can protect him. Medicines, mantras and gems help to mitigate the problems and diseases caused by malefic planets and stars (Nakshatras).

Of course, we watched Project Runway season 2 finals. Sad to say I wasn't impressed with the collections of the 3 finalists, unlike the first season. I got bored, honestly.
Season 2 contestant and kabogera, Patrick Galang. I was hoping he'd be on the top 3 but got booted out (twice!).
Season 1 finalist, Veejay Floresca, lends his support. He's wearing his own designed jacket, seam side out, paired with a Dior Homme shades I love. He won a special jury prize in a Japanese design contest just recently.
PRP season 1 winner Aries Lagat, flanked by Veejay and moi.
Jerome Lorico's show was a refreshing change of directing style. His collection reminded me of Mihara Yasuhiro. Lot's of wearable pieces to acquire. Love the degrade denim wash.
Got invited by Ben Chan to watch their show. Wouldn't have dared showed without reserved seats given that Bench shows are always full. Rey Lanada was so nice in assisting me and my friends to have prime seats. I snapped Deither Ocampo who watched the show. Half of the models were Bench stars, like Richard&Lucy Gomez, et al. Aljur Abernica rocked the place. So as Kim&Gerald. There was this Coco Martin guy who made the ladies go shrieking like banshees. Half of the time I was pestering my friend Mikki and askinghim who the hell were on the runway. Lots of new faces for Bench.
There were oldtimers, too, icons if you may. Elizabeth Ramsey is such a darling.
Tessa Valdez was so...Tessa! lol!
I really had fun.
We also watched the Marlon Rivera show (one of my fave show) and bumped into the glam, chic, fab, insert-chica-word-here, THE Darryl Chang of Preview Magazine. Love her YSL-esque look. Very Stefano Pilati, non?
If DC is there, could AC be far behind? Andre Chang looking rather minimal in shades of gray. Earlier that week he was sporting a one shouldered jacket with a hude spider brooch.
And, lookey, lookey, what is he wearing?! Yup, it's the DP gladiator boots from s/s 2008
My friend Peer was such a big fan of AC so I NEED to post this for him. Early Christmas present my dear.
I also got to meet Toxic Disco Boy, finally, during my show day! See how we think alike? Margiela, much?
Fashion Diary pose: Top by Margiela AIDS tee, drop crotch pants, Mihara Yasuhiro sneaker/boots and Shinee bag (?). I hope I got it right.
Backstage I snapped Dimple Lim and Lizanne Cua rocking the requisite all-black ensembles.
Martin Bautista looking cute as ever. His collection was very Alaia, bodycon bitches.
Another cutie, Ziggy Savella, a young designer with a very focused aesthetic.
Always fun Madame Ciege Cagalawan, Toxic Disco Mike and Ava Paguyo who told me her collection was inspired by her baha experience.
My gang who watched and was there early: Peer, Mikki, Jerson, Jaki and Marichel.
Apres, we went to A.venue to have some drinks and food.
Ivan was there, too! I love tsika moments with friends.
Before flying to Iloilo, Dante, treated us for breakfast at Rockwell.
Manila is fun but I always miss Iloilo more.

It is especially appreciated for its decorative white flowers resembling trumpets or bells, and cultivated as a patio plant which blooms from summer to autumn or even into the winter. The tree datura is one of the hardiest representatives of Brugmansia and tolerates temperatures down to -10 °C in sheltered places, but should nevertheless be hibernated in a garage or an unheated room when cultivated in pots.
In Peru, the leaves of the angel's trumpet trees are used for the treatment of tumours and to alleviate fever. It is believed that the seeds were used as an anaesthetic in pre-Columbian times, possibly in combination with leaves of the coca shrub. Currently, the plant is only used in homeopathic dilution.
10 arborescent Brugmansia seeds
Cultivation & care:
Sow seeds in pre-culture all year round, preferably in late summer or autumn. Nutrient rich and fresh soil with good drainage. Keep dry in winter, water abundantly in spring and summer. For good flowering in pot culture, fertilise once or twice a week in summer. Prune before hibernation.

I went a bit nuts over the Holidays and picked up some premium tanks. The results so far are quite promising. This replay is just a quickie to hold you over until I get my regular Two Battle Tuesday and some live-play out again. Suffering from a bit of the flu and not up to live commentary at the moment.
I also have free copy of Assassins Creed 3 to give away so stay tuned for that.

POMONAL NATIVE FLOWER SHOW 2018After 35 consecutive years of presenting the much admired and iconic Pomonal Native Flower Show, visitors might expect the Australian Plants Society Grampians Group to have run out of ideas. But at the 36th show on the 6th and 7th of October 2018 at the Pomonal Hall, the group presented a display of endangered ecosystems, featuring Grasslands and Rainforests. It hasn't been done before so it will be quite an achievement.
Commencing on Saturday the 6th from 9.00 until 5.00 and on Sunday the 7th from 9.00 until 4.00, visitors were able to see a fabulous display of hundreds of named native flower species and all of these picked from members' gardens. Visitors were also able to buy loads of native plants (many which are rare and collectable), gardening and botany books and also refreshments; and they were able to visit some excellent local native gardens, included in the price of flower show entry ticket.
Adding to the show, at the back of the hall were two displays. One display, championing Rainforests, featured the work of Ellis Rowan, an award-winning Australian female botanical artist from the 19th century, and provided examples of many beautiful rainforest plants suitable for our gardens or pot culture.The other display was an interactive Grasslands display presented by our members from the 'Jallukar Native Grasslands Project', with plant specimens, photographic displays and some hands-on experiences that highlight one of our most undervalued but beautiful ecosystems.
All this wonderment cost adults only $5 and children are free.
Visitors can take the opportunity to visit the grand, picturesque and botanically-significant Grampians National Park on the same weekend.
Please email Linda Handscombe, or the Grampians Group, or call 0407 700 843 for show enquiries and visit easterngrampians.com.au or ring the Halls Gap and Grampians Visitor Information Centre on 1800 065 599 for general enquiries. You can also follow us on Facebook at APS Grampians Group.
This event has been supported by the Ararat Rural City Council.

President Bush recently said, "I've got to do a better job of making it clear when I talk about Islam, I talk about a peaceful religion..."
Mr. President, there are certainly many peaceful Muslims in the world, and some Muslim countries are quite peaceful, and there have been times of relatively peaceful periods in Islamic history, but it is an undeniable historical fact that Islam is NOT a peaceful religion!
Muhammad himself was a warrior who personally engaged in battles and whose armies slaughtered thousands! These were not just battles in self-defense, as some would like to contend. This was shear Islamic imperialism. Muhammd's last command was that there should be no two religions left in Arabia! That was not a command of self-defense.
After Muhammad's death in AD 632, his disciples followed his imperialist example and obeyed his commands to fight the "infidels." By 635 Muslim armies conquered Damascus. By 636 they had subdued large parts of Iraq. They conquered Jerusalem in 638, Caesarea in 641, Armenia and Egypt in 643. By 709 they had conquered all of North Africa! By 711 they had conquered Spain and were moving into France. Later Muslim armies invaded Afghanistan, Pakistan and India.
The peoples conquered by the Muslims were given three choices: 1) accept the humiliating rules and taxes of dhimmi status (only available to "people of the Book"), 2) convert to Islam, 2) or 3) die. As recently as the early 1900's, 1.5 million Armenians were slaughtered in jihad and in more recent times literally millions of others have died at the hands of jihadists.
Yes there are, and always have been, peaceful Muslims. But Islam is absolutely NOT a peaceful religion. Anyone who tells you otherwise either does not know Islamic history or is blowing smoke in your face! America is not well served by covering up the truth in the name of political correctness.

Bush: Islam a peaceful religion
Posted by Dennis at 12:33
Labels: 2008 election, Radical Islam

Agree. Maybe President Bush thinks if he says it often enough, it will become peaceful. Perhaps he doesn't think so, but is using it as a political ploy. But whatever the case, Islam did not have a peaceful beginning or a peaceful "prophet." The only "peaceful" Islam is that which occurs when Islam is the ruling power with all other religions submitting to its law (and even then, Muslims kill other Muslims indiscriminately).
Islam should be placed in the historical dumpster of bad ideas.

Autumn is well and truly finally here, however you track when it starts (In meteorological terms autumn begins on 1st September but in Astrological terms, Autumn starts on the equinox which this year was 22nd September).
What does that mean for me, well for a start it marks my most favourite time of year, I love Autumn through to Winter. Firstly we have nice crisp mornings, walks in the beautiful woods turning all shades of colours collecting conkers, home to a nice squash soup and a good old cup of tea. Yes folks tea, which means my tea drinking has increased which means you can expect to see more tea videos and blog posts from me! I usually like to change my home decor when the season changes, I take out all my Summer stuff and replace it with an Autumnal theme but I haven't quite gotten round to doing that yet but I most likely will during Vlogtober so that I can show you all. I have decided to try and do Vlogtober this year on my Ginger Juice YouTube channel which means I will be posting a vlog every day in October. I enjoyed vlogmas so I thought why not try vlogtober!
Then we have Halloween although not widely celebrated here in the UK I still like it but of course us Brits have Guy Fawkes night, on 5th November a chance to have a bonfire, some nice warm chilli, soup in a mug and watch the fireworks. On a personal note I have my wedding anniversary with Mr B on 17th November and then the Christmas festivities begin. Whooop whooop!
Mr B and I have been out forraging for blackberries which this year have been so plump and delicious. I am so lucky that my husband loves to cook and finds it relaxing. The great thing about our house is we both love to cook but usually at the weekends Jon bakes a scrummy treat. Last weekend he made a crumble with the blackberries and I filmed him making it for his YouTube channel (wholesome day) which I have embedded below for you in case you would like to watch it.
I am also hoping to enter this competition...

The Value of Culture w/Rett Harmon
Like it or not, every company has a culture. How do you build a good company culture intentionally? How can you become a community expert in your market? On this episode, we are joined by agent and team co-broker owner, Rett Harmon, who shares on how to be authentic and how he was able to build a company he enjoys.
You need to be same person that you are online as you are offline. - Rett Harmon
Takeaways + Tactics
- Company culture is either built by design or by default.
- Owning the market starts with owning the minds of your community.
- When you're authentic, you attract people who really fit in with your culture.
At the start of the show, Rett shared his team structure and how every business has a culture either built intentionally or unintentionally. Next, we talked about how his team uses community content to position themselves as experts. Towards the end, Rett talked about the importance of being a consistent brand.
We also discussed:
- How to know if your community content is effective
- The importance of authenticity
- Developing an intake criteria for your recruits
Building and sustaining a culture is all about authenticity, and that starts with how the leaders show up and present themselves. If who you are online is different from who you are offline, that inconsistency will show. You don't have to be everything for everyone, but you do have to find your own lane and own it. Invest in people who share the same values as you and your team. All these things are necessary as you design your team culture.

The next new version of Peugeot 208 comes to be the initial one to ride on the most recent Typical Modular System, which the car manufacturer co-develops with Dongfeng. As experienced in the making, the incoming Peugeot 208 includes the firm's latest household layout.
Anticipated to debut at the Geneva Electric motor Program at some time in 2018, the sec-gen 2018 Peugeot 208 presently goes through a complete remodeling to fit its lovers throughout the globe. It will certainly get sharper looks together with a brand new electrical powertrain, so it matches the Citroen C3.
The redesign, consequently, would certainly look sharper as well as angular. Besides, the overhauled supermini showcases comparable characteristics as the brand-new Peugeot 3008 and also Peugeot 5008 designs. It supposedly remains to gauge 4 meters long, albeit it highlights much shorter overhangs that arise from an extensive wheelbase.
2018 Peugeot 208 Design & Concept
This might show that its wheelbase as well as size ought to remain approximately much like the outbound design, which determines 155.99 inches in size and also trips on a 99.92-inch wheelbase. Peugeot specified its objective was to end up being one of the most relied on premium generalist brand name.
Unlike the just recently remodelled Citroen C3 that makes use of PSA's existing PFI supermini system, this version obtains a fresh fit of elements. Inside the cabin, the manufacturer fine-tunes its questionable i-Cockpit configuration. Additionally, the main infomercial system obtains an overhaul to achieve quicker actions. It provides better smart device connection in addition to various other multimedia showcases as criterion.
The manufacturer additionally incorporates LED daytime running lights, and also 2018 continuouslies appear in 3 and also five-door type. The 2nd generation 208 will certainly be bigger compared to the contemporary auto, which determines 68.46 inches throughout. The whole account mirrors that of its larger bro, the Peugeot 308, although its size remains at 4 meters long.
As we earlier subjected, the 2018 Peugeot 208 flights on the CMP system that was co-developed by Dongfeng Motors and also the PSA Team. The Peugeot additionally utilizes a selection of weight cost savings to supply miraculous convenience. Based upon our unique spy pictures, the 2018 Peugeot 208 trades its existing contours with straighter, crisper lines this moment around.
So, the 2018 Peugeot 208 lugs advanced styling that is a lot more superior compared to Citroen however much less luxury-focused compared to DS. It obtains the added size as a result of the button to a new framework. Its front as well as back overhangs must end up being much shorter. However as a result of a prolonged wheelbase, they cancel to raise clearance and also legroom within. We attempted checking out this design extra very closely, however we could not see other fast as well as unclean body changes.
Engine As Well As transmission
The 2018 Peugeot 208 consists of numerous alternatives in the engine line-up, such as the all-electric variation, brand-new generations of PSA's BlueHDI diesel and also PureTech gas systems. We anticipate gasoline electric motors to be three-cylinder turbo systems, with the 1.2-liter variation's power varying from 70 hp as much as nearly 150 hp. The brand new 1.6 THP fuel engine in the 208 GTi provides to 220 hp.
The diesel variety also obtains a better shakeup, as PSA very closely complies with Volkswagen Team's lead in downsizing its 1.6-liter electric motors to 1.5 litres. Power results mainly continue to be the very same at anything between 75 hp as well as 120 hp. However, CARBON DIOXIDE discharges will likely be up to 75g/km or perhaps much less on eco-fused designs.
Pricing & Release Date
The brand-new supermini brings a beginning price of $18,620 for reduced trims, with greater trims striking the $34,540 mark. We have actually had records declaring that the 2018 Peugeot 208 remains in a very early screening stage. For that reason, it is not likely making launching at the start of 2018. The PSA assured that the very first CMP-based cars and trucks would certainly touch the dealer in mid-2018.

There are several reasons why people put in the time to completely restore 1969 ford mach mustangs for vehicle shows and individual enjoyment. Among the primary reasons individuals spend so much time, energy, and cash restoring 1969 ford mach mustangs is the power that is contained in that specific mustang model. The engine upgrades that were offered throughout the launch of the 1969 ford mach mustang for sale in Millport AL transformed the mach mustang from the average family automobile into a racing enthusiasts dream.
Production of the Mustang started in Dearborn, Michigan on March 9, 1964 and the automobile was introduced to the public on April 17, 1964 at the New York World's Fair.
