JOMBANG (sekilasmedia.com) “Meskipun Sultan Cakraadiningrat merupakan Raja Islam ke-11 di Madura Barat ketika itu serta memiliki keturunan yang diantaranya beragama nasrani (terutama mayoritas di kawasan Mojowarno-Jombang dan sekitar, red.) namun dari sana diantaranya terkuak nilai untuk hidup dengan toleransi, hidup saling hormat menghormati, seperti yang juga diajarkan dalam agama Islam untuk saling menghormati agama masing-masing,” kurang-lebih hal tersebut ditandaskan Raden Hamid Mustari Cakraadiningrat cucu langsung dari Sultan Cakraadiningrat yang hadir saat Reuni Akbar Nasional pertama dari keturunan Pangeran Cokrokusumo yang merupakan putra ke-25 dari Sultan Cakraadiningrat II (Sultan Bangkalan II, red.). Raden Hamid Mustari Cakraadiningrat juga dikenal sebagai Ketua Yayasan Kesultanan Bangkalan. Sedangkan Reuni Akbar Nasional pertama kali dalam Keluarga Besar Pangeran Poncokusumo yang dilaksanakan pada hari Minggu 8 Juli 2018 tersebut diadakan di Gedung Pertemuan GKJW Mojowarno, Jombang, Jawa Timur, dihadiri peserta dari seluruh Indonesia dengan berbagai ragam agama.
**********
*JIWA KEPAHLAWANAN PANGERAN COKROKUSUMO TERKONFIRMASI RESMI OLEH BERBAGAI MEDIA TERMASUK TELEVISI, KORAN DAN ONLINE*
Tentang jiwa kepahlawanan Pangeran Cokrokusumo mungkin tidak akan mencuat lebih luas keluar lingkungan keluarganya jika tidak ada acara Reuni Akbar Nasional yang pertama kali yang diadakan di Gedung Pertemuan Jemaat GKJW Mojowarno, Jombang, Jawa Timur, Minggu 8 Juli 2018.
Melalui agenda Reuni Akbar Nasional pertama kali yang menarik perhatian banyak media termasuk reporter televisi maupun media cetak dan online yang mendengar tentang jiwa kepahlawanan Pangeran Cokrokusumo sehubungan cinta negeri, cinta tanah air (cinta NKRI, red.). Hingga dari para keturunan Pangeran Cokrokusumo itupun di sela acara reuni terkonfirmasi secara resmi pertama kalinya mengenai jiwa kepahlawanan dan perjuangan Pangeran Cokrokusumo.
*DI HADAPAN BERBAGAI MEDIA, GARDI GAZARIN: PANGERAN COKROKUSUMO TAK MAU MEMUSUHI DAN MENYAKITI BANGSANYA SENDIRI*
Konfirmasi resmi tentang jiwa kepahlawanan Pangeran Cokrokusumo tersebut disampaikan oleh sejumlah keturunan Pangeran Cokrokusumo, ‘jalur’ Sultan Cakraadiningrat, diantaranya Gardi Gazarin yang juga dikenal sebagai pengamat Masalah Sosial-Kamtibmas Dan Kepolisian yang dikenal dekat Mabes Polri dan kepolisian umumnya.
Pada satu jiwa kepahlawanan Pangeran Cokrokusumo adalah ketika dia memilih meninggalkan Madura (Bangkalan, red.) dengan diantara alasannya karena tak setuju dengan langkah tetuanya yang diminta membantu Belanda memerangi rakyat dan bangsa Indonesia sendiri. Akan tetapi langkah tersebut dilaksanakan tidak secara frontal namun secara diam-diam bahkan seolah-olah Pangeran Cokrokusumo tidak ingin dikenali sebagai bangsawan namun ‘menyamar’ sebagai rakyat biasa semenjak keluar dari Pulau Madura. “Diantara jiwa kepahlawanan Pangeran Cokrokusumo adalah ketika dia tak setuju dengan tetua ayahandanya yang diminta membantu Belanda memerangi bangsa kita sendiri,” ungkap Gardi Gazarin yang masuk 12 besar komisaris Kompolnas saat 2016.
*PANGERAN COKROKUSUMO ANAK KE-25 SULTAN CAKRAADININGRAT II BANGKALAN, MADURA*
Sekadar catatan untuk merefresh, Sultan Cakraadiningrat II tersebut oleh orang Bangkalan dikenal sebagai Sultan Abdul Kadirun. Sultan Abdul Kadirun Cakraadiningrat II ini memiliki putra putri 46 anak, dan putra ke-25 adalah Raden Abdurrasyid Pangeran Cokrokusumo. Yang setelah memutuskan keluar dari Madura, lantas memilih berkegiatan sebagai masyarakat biasa misal sebagai petani, menyamar termasuk hingga ke Mojowarno dan sangat berperan membuka sejumlah desa baru serta mengembangkan Ilmu Srani atau agama Nasrani.
Dalam hal tersebut pun Pangeran Cokrokusumo sangat berperan dalam penyebaran Nasrani di kawasan Mojowarno, juga Jombang khususnya serta berbagai daerah lain seluruh Indonesia. Menurut Gardi Gazarin salah satu keturunan Pangeran Cokrokusumo yang juga salah satu panitia Reuni Akbar Nasional tersebut menandaskan bahwa di Kecamatan Mojowarno tersebar banyak keturunan dari Pangeran Cokrokusumo. Hal tersebut juga menjadi salah satu alasan kenapa Reuni Akbar Nasional tersebut ditempatkan di Mojowarno.
Penyebaran trah (keturunan) Kesultanan Bangkalan atau Sultan Bangkalan II di Kabupaten jombang ini, tidak luput dari jejak sejarah Kekristenan di wilayah Mojowarno, Kabupaten Jombang.
*SEKITAR TAHUN 1800-AN KESULTANAN BANGKALAN MENGALAMI GEJOLAK*
Penjelasan Gardi Gazarin bahwa pada kisaran Tahun 1800-an Kesultanan Bangkalan mengalami gejolak politik yang disebabkan oleh politik adu domba yang dilakukan oleh Pemerintahan Belanda waktu itu. Karena adanya gejolak politik tersebut, Pangeran Cokrokusumo yang merupakan putra dari Sultan Cakraadiningrat II (Sultan Bangkalan II) ini, memilih meninggalkan Pulau Madura dan memilih Pulau Jawa sebagai tempat tinggal.
Setelah cukup lama tinggal di Pulau Jawa, Pangeran Cokrokusumo yang mengganti namanya dengan Kyai Mendung ini memiliki beberapa anak yang mulai beranjak dewasa. Salah satu diantaranya bernama Raden Paing. “Raden Paing mewarisi sifat ayahnya yang menyukai ilmu-ilmu kesaktian, ilmu kanuragan dengan cara berguru maupun bertapa,” jelas Gardi Gazarin. Saat Raden Paing mulai beranjak dewasa, menemukan sosok guru bernama Sunan Kuning atau Tuan Coolen di wilayah Ngoro, Jombang. Dari situ, Raden Paing mendapatkan ilmu “Ngelmu Srani” atau Agama Nasrani. Sekadar catatan bagi keturunan Pangeran Cokrokusumo bisa menuliskan tentang Pangeran Cokrokusumo dan kirimkan ke kami.

Abbie Chatfield has shared a very telling throwback
image of herself and boyfriend Adam Hyde, six months before they went Instagram Official.
The veteran presenter, 29, and the Peking Duk frontman went public with their relationship
in June.
However another racy photo, taken before they became a couple, captured Abbie
and Adam waiting patiently together in a fast food line,
with the presenter looking absolutely smitten over the strapping musician.
Abbie had a huge smile on her face in the adorable picture, as she gazed intensely at Adam as they chatted while waiting to
order.
She captioned the picture: ‘One year and two days since this iconic photo of me being in love with
Adam.
‘Before we ever even slept together LMAO. “Nah, I don’t have a crush on him anymore”.’

The podcast host was braless in the image, and her low-slung skirt

Shortly after they went public with their relationship, Abbie opened
up about her sex life with her boyfriend in a candid and wide-ranging chat on her It’s A Lot podcast.
She appeared on the bonus Ask Me Anything episode with Adam, in which they discussed their budding romance.
As the new couple fielded questions about their bond, musician Adam cheekily boasted about the couple’s sizzling

It comes after Abbie revealed the sexual act she would never engage in with
her boyfriend.
She recently opened up about the launch of her ‘kink kit’ sex toys and admitted when it comes to bedroom fun, it’s strictly a two-person affair.

Bright and early, my old friend, the beauty and wellness
entrepreneur Liz Earle, is standing at my door clutching a Kilner jar with what looks like a small sponge floating in murky
water.
‘I made kombucha for you,’ she says with an enthusiasm I don’t entirely share.
(The sponge, it turns out, is the Scoby, or
‘symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast’, which is what’s used to
ferment sweetened tea to make kombucha. I don’t realise at the time, but this hideous thing
takes weeks to develop and is in fact a very generous gift.)
The truth is, I’d drink (almost) anything if it gave me Liz’s zip.
At 61, a mother of five and a new grandmother, she honestly looks 20 years younger.
Fans of her YouTube channel and her 170,000 Instagram followers will know
how bright and smooth her skin is, but in person she is fizzing with energy, too.
Liz and I have been friends for 25 years – over which
time she has somehow seemed to gain in vitality as I, nine years her junior, have…
well, deflated.
Beauty and wellness entrepreneur Liz Earle, right,
and Beatrice Aidin met back in the 1990s when they were both
beauty journalists
So here’s my plan. I am going to Live Like Liz for a
full eight weeks, morning to night, to see just how much I, too,
can turn back the clock.
I am going to eat, drink and exercise like Liz, ‘ground myself’ in a flower bed in my pyjamas like her, and even tape up my mouth
à la Liz. From my gut to my hormones, my brain to the very cells of my skin, I will follow the ‘bio-hacks’
set out in her new book A Better Second Half: Dial Back Your Age To Live
A Longer, Healthier, Happier Life, which swiftly became a bestseller on its
release this year.
Liz says it can’t fail, so long as I commit to it.
‘Who’s to say we can’t or shouldn’t change the way we age?’ she asks.
‘I was stronger, fitter and more capable in my 50s than I was in my
40s, so why can’t I be even more so in my 60s, 70s and beyond?’
Perhaps more significantly, after the ‘car crash of emotional wreckage’ caused by the breakdown of
her second marriage, and the divorce she went through in 2020, she now says: ‘I’m
happier at 61 than I was at 40.’
Career-wise, it shows. When we met back in the 1990s we were both beauty journalists.
At launches for new products, I’d merrily down the free Krug while Liz sipped
sparkling water. ‘Ah Bea, you were the yin to my yang,’ she says.
Now, her wellness empire has mushroomed…
and I’m suffering major work anxiety, a not-unrelated financial crisis and severe sciatica.
Frankly, I look and feel knackered. My skin is dull and I have dark circles under my eyes.
Physical pain interferes with my sleep, and I’ve been turning rather too readily to the sauvignon blanc to help me nod off.
Food is not a priority: I’m either not interested
or craving sugar, which means I’m a good 10lb heavier than I should be.
So, can living like my rather fabulous friend make me feel as young as she looks?
More to the point – can I really stick to it, kombucha and all?
‘Come on Bea, get off your backside!’ Liz demands…
Liz (left) puts Beatrice through her paces in the
gym. Beatrice needs extra help with exercise because of her sciatica
Week one: I face up to my middle-age spread
Liz’s top-line diet philosophy is high-protein, low carb, meaning
she’s a fan of lots of foods I love but didn’t think I should
eat: butter, unprocessed meat, avocados, good quality cheese, taramasalata and thick Greek yoghurt.
High protein helps us ‘shift to a leaner, more
toned shape, and lose that middle-aged spread,’ she says.
Timing matters. Liz eats two meals a day –
brunch around 11am and dinner at 7pm. The order matters too:
clear your plate of chicken before rice, because eating protein before carbs keeps blood sugar levels
stable.
In recent years she has increased her coffee intake (before 2pm)
because studies show four to five cups is ‘strongly
associated with living longer’ thanks to the bioactives in coffee beans such as chlorogenic acid.
She eats wheatgerm, soya beans and nuts to up her intake of spermidine – a dietary molecule that interacts with our DNA and mimics an anti-ageing process called autophagy, which de-ages
us at a cellular level.
Alcohol is basically a no-no. Liz has the ‘occasional glass’ of wine or
tequila, but never more than two and never alone.
I chuck out the ready meals and plonk, roll up my sleeves and start cooking from scratch.
I grill venison, roast a chicken and make soups with
the leftovers.
Eating at specific times works for me – I’m never very hungry
first thing – and enjoying the protein part of each meal first means I’m fuller and find it easy to cut back
on my carb portions.
Gut health is a big focus, which means more fermented foods.
Much to my surprise, I love the kombucha and soon start to brew
my own using Liz’s Scoby. But homemade kimchi – fermented veg – is a harder sell.
When a lunch guest asks me why I’m forcing
myself to eat something I dislike so much, I reply solemnly:
‘Liz told me to.’
Week two: I discover I can do only 3 press-ups
I really need help with exercise because sciatica means my normal routine
has gone to pot.
Thankfully, Liz reckons just ten minutes a day of exercises such as squats,
lunges and press-ups is more valuable in the long term than a high-intensity gym session once a week or
a long park run.
She introduces me to her personal trainer, Michael Garry, who delivers the (bombshell, but welcome) news that running any distance over 5k can ‘start to have
negative effects’ on our immune system and bone strength.
If you’re a runner, make it harder by speeding up your time,
not increasing your distance.
At Michael’s insistence, I consult a physio about my
sciatica, and then he devises a daily regime for me.
I try press-ups and make it to three. Mortifying. Perseverance is clearly key.
As are weights, especially in your 50s. ‘The more muscle you have,
the more your bones are protected from osteoporosis,
especially during midlife,’ says Michael.
For cardio, says Beatrice, I keep swimming twice a week.
But instead of plodding up and down the pool, I start to compete with myself, speeding up the laps
For my slack and flabby upper arms, he advises
shoulder presses and hammer curls, with 3kg weights in both hands.
I try tricep dips off a chair, and quickly find I can increase my reps – until by week four I’m
doing two sets of 15.
I work out three times a week at home. At first the routine takes 40 minutes but the more I do, the faster I do it, until the whole
thing – stretching, press-ups, weights – takes
just 20 minutes.
For cardio, I keep swimming twice a week. But instead of plodding up and down the
pool, I start to compete with myself, speeding up the laps.
Week three: I slow the hormonal roller coaster
I’m menopausal and already on HRT, but I know I could improve how I feel, which is sluggish and foggy.
Liz introduces me to something called the
‘estrobolome’ – the specific collection of bacteria in the gut that
influences how our body uses oestrogen. Put simply, some microbes improve the efficiency with which oestrogen reaches
tissues around the body, meaning we use our dwindling supplies more effectively.
The best way to support your estrobolome is by eating fibre from veg, seeds and nuts, plus some of the low-sugar fruits such as
apples, berries and plums. Back to the supermarket I go.
To boost the happy hormone serotonin, my saintly mentor insists I finish my morning
shower with a minimum 60-second blast of icy cold water, resulting –
she claims – in a ‘post-shock high’ and ‘genuine glow’.
Hmmm. I find it hard to relinquish the comfort of a hot shower and feel not happy
but mutinous as I step out of the bathroom shivering.
Week four: I stand in the flower bed
Living Like Liz means getting outside first thing in the morning and standing barefoot on the grass.
‘Grounding’ apparently enables electrons from the surface of the Earth to transmit
deep into the body, ‘where they have an anti-inflammatory effect’.
Liz tells me she does this in the tranquil grounds of her glorious pile in the West Country.
I do it in a flower bed in my shared patio,
still in my pyjamas, and feel, well, very self-conscious.
Later I graduate to the park, and – look away now – tread in dog mess, which does not improve my emotional wellbeing.
She also encourages us to keep a Five Minute Gratitude Journal twice a day.
‘Gratitude is… a superpower that improves longevity and supports the immune system,’
she says.
I can’t help but think my better-off mate has rather a
lot more to smile about than me but, following instructions, I write down three things I am grateful for every morning, and every
night a short list of ‘good things’ that happened that day, plus another (longer) list of
‘things that are concerning me’.
My scepticism around gratitude slowly lifts as I find it does make me realise what’s important and what’s not.
It helps me see that things are a lot brighter than I thought.
Packing in a rush for a weekend away, I can’t find my journal and am surprised by how bereft
I feel without it.
Week five: I start to sleep well
I’m a night owl – I stay up too late watching TV and end up hitting my snooze button past 8.30am…
and occasionally edging towards 10am.
Liz reckons anyone can improve their sleep if they follow her routine, which means setting an evening alarm for 9pm – to remind yourself to
start ‘winding down for bed’.
Emails, social media and TV are switched off, replaced by a printed
book or a podcast. She takes 120g of magnesium glycinate in a milky
drink half an hour before bed (and stops eating two hours before).
Living Like Liz means getting outside first thing in the morning
Liz wears a bamboo fibre nightie or pyjamas to keep warm because she sleeps with
an open window, which she covers with blackout blinds and
curtains, and sprinkles her pillow with a few drops of
neat lavender essential oil.
I’m an e-book reader, so already failing at this
routine. Still, I leave my phone charging in the kitchen and buy a regular alarm clock.
The lavender oil makes me sneeze, so I spray my pillows with C.
Atherley Geranium Spray instead.
Oh, and I tape my lips up – Liz shows me how when she delivers the kombucha.
Forcing yourself to breathe through your nose is said to promote more restful sleep.
All of this is time-consuming and takes practise,
but I find the ritual soothing. Five weeks in, I’m getting
to sleep earlier than I have for years – at 10.30pm after 20 minutes drop-off time -and waking at 7.30am.
How virtuous!
Week six: I crash off the wagon
I’m doing my best, but then I go for lunch with a friend who chirpily suggests a glass
of wine, which turns into a bottle. And then a
second. Later, with a daytime hangover, I head to M&S and find reduced dauphinoise potatoes, which become dinner.
Liz has got me on a blood sugar tracker called Lingo (£289 for two months – you jab a biosensor the size and shape of a plastic bottle top
into your upper arm, and then link it to an app
on your phone), which shows a massive post-potato
spike and then a huge slump, which makes me tired and irritable.
Who knew that such deliciousness had such a high glycaemic load?
I call Liz to ‘fess up. ‘I have the odd day when I lie in, eat too much cake and drink too much tequila,’ she says.
‘But that’s fine because you then know what to do to put it right.
It’s not about being perfect.’ Phew!
Week seven: I tackle my financial mess
Re-reading my journal really helps here. By documenting what I was so worried about
day by day, my perspective on it changes.
Here, in black and white, is a record of how I felt at the start
of this project and how I’ve evolved.
I’ve come unstuck – in a good way. I’m not going to pretend it’s
been easy because change is uncomfortable,
but I realise there’s simply nothing to
be gained from the worry spiral.
If freelance life is tough, and my income erratic, I’m going to
do something about it. Buoyed with the confidence that comes with action, I apply for part-time
admin jobs. As personal trainer Michael observes as we work out on Zoom, I
wouldn’t have done this before. He’s right. Finally I’ve started to take control.
Week eight: And the winner is…
So how have eight weeks of Living Like Liz changed me?
Physically, I’m in much better shape. I’ve lost 7 lb and taken an extraordinary 5 in off my waist and 11 in off my body as a whole.
Those three pathetic press-ups have become a whopping 40
per workout, and the measly 3kg weights are now 6kg, meaning I have proper bicep definition.
The sleeveless tops will be coming out again this party season.

Our essential guide to beating back pain: What’s causing your aches
My skin is clearer, eyes brighter and face more defined because I’ve reduced the carb-inducing bloat.
I’m sleeping better and feeling infinitely less anxious.
Most remarkably – and this is really life-changing – my sciatica is almost
gone and I can come off strong painkillers. I know sciatica can disappear
of its own accord, but the timing is surely no coincidence.
All those exercises have strengthened the muscles around my spine
and buttocks and I’m convinced it’s done the trick.
I meet Liz for lunch, nervous about whether she’ll see a
difference. ‘Oh wow,’ she says, taking a good look at her pupil.
‘Those arms! You definitely look younger.’
We chat for a while and she adds: ‘You also seem more content and optimistic.
You have an inner glow and a halo of positivity.’
Well, yes, she would say that, wouldn’t she? (Probably. Though Liz is known for her candour, so it’s not a given.) ‘I wasn’t sure you
were going to prioritise yourself enough and commit,
‘ she admits ‘You weren’t an easy nut to crack so I’m thrilled.’
I’m delighted with my gold star. And I’m grateful to her, which is one of the key lessons I’ve learned.
Gratitude makes everything feel better.
That – along with the kombucha, ice-cold showers (which I have learned to love)
and the odd tequila – are the habits I’ll hold on to.
But not (shudder!) the kimchi or flower beds.
As Liz says, everyone deserves to have a better second half
– and if I can do it, anyone can.

Dressing up for Thanksgiving can be tricky because you want
to strike a balance of style, comfort and practicality.
The day often involves a mix of eating, lounging, socializing, and possibly outdoor activities so
finding an outfit that’s both chic and cozy can be challenging.
Plus, with all the eating, your look needs to be forgiving at
the waist but formal enough for all the pics!
Daily Mail reveals the best colors, silhouettes, and shoes for every kind of celebration.
Dressing up for Thanksgiving can be tricky because you want to strike a balance of style, comfort and practicality
SPIRITED COLORS
Warm, earthy tones that mimic fall foliage are the best colors to wear on Turkey Day.
While black may seem like a logical choice for eating
a large meal, festive tones like burnt orange, mustard yellow,
forest green, browns and burgundy are a beautiful alternative for the season.
Burnt orange: Evokes feelings of comfort and warmth, and is associated with foliage, fireplaces, and pumpkins.
Mustard yellow: Captures the essence of the season by resembling
the color of changing leaves.
Forest green: Associated with nature, it aligns
with the theme of the holiday.
Browns: Perceived as warm and inviting, brown shades like chocolate, caramel and camel, are perfect for a family gathering.
Burgundy: This year’s hottest color, burgundy lends an air of sophistication.
Cream: Natural yet elegant, the neutral creates balance.
Gold: Adds a luxurious touch to any look.
Layering these color with textured fabrics, like knits or suede and a touch of silk, can create a stylish, seasonally
appropriate look.
Shades that represent fallen leaves lend a rich, cozy feel and festive tone

The actress donned a light brown pleated dress topped by a dark brown leather blazer,
both by Cinq à Sept.
Finishing her monochromatic look was a pretty, pale pink beauty look.
This is a sharp ensemble for Thanksgiving day.
NON-RESTRICTIVE SILHOUETTES
Comfortable and forgiving waistlines are highly desired on Thanksgiving.
Elastic waistbands: The stretch of the fabric allows for stomach expansion and a second serving of dessert!
Empire waist: The fitted bodice ends just below the bust (instead of at the waistline) and extends to a flowing
skirt.
Drawstring: Allows for easy adjustments throughout the day
offering a more relaxed fit than a traditional
button and zipper closure.
A-line: Flaring out at the hips, the “A” shape provides movement without the discomfort of a waistband.
Wrap style: Most are made from soft, stretchy fabric, allowing the wearer to tighten or loosen the garment as needed.

EFFORTLESS SHOES
The best shoes that offer style without sacrificing comfort are mules,
low-heel booties, loafers, ballet flats, and knee-high boots.
Mules: Extremely easy to slip on and off, and they can be dressed
up or down.
Low-heel booties: They can complement and elevate
a variety of outfits.
Loafers: Currently trending, durable, and more elegant than a sneaker.
Ballet flats: Cute and comfortable enough to wear for hours of
mingling and feasting.
Knee-high boots: Provide warmth and coverage to legs when wearing a
dress or skirt that hit above the knee.

PLANT OUT SPRING BEDDING
Wallflowers get their name from their habit of growing near stone walls.
Erysimum cheiri are shortlived evergreen perennials or biennials often grown as spring bedding.
You can buy them as plug plants now and get them in the ground to flower early next year.
This is a fun activity to do with children or grandchildren. All you need is a well-weeded flower bed in a sunny spot, gardening gloves,
and a trowel.
Dig a hole so that the base of the plant is level with the soil.
Pop in your young wallflower, firm the earth around it and water
well. Repeat, leaving 20cm between plants.
They can grow to up to 50cm high depending on the variety and come in a range of bright colours.
E. ‘Fireglow’ is a dazzling red and orange variety; E. ‘Bowles Mauve’
is light purple, while E. ‘Sunset Primrose’ is a fragrant lemon yellow.
Erysimum cheiri (pictured) are shortlived evergreen perennials
or biennials often grown as spring bedding
This is also the time to plant plugs of Sweet Williams (Dianthus
barbatus). These are also biennials or short-lived perennials which grow to between 40 to 60cm with clusters of carnation-like flowers
from February to June in colours from white to deep pink,
often in a combination of two tones. They prefer well-drained,
alkaline to neutral soil in full sun.
POTATOES NEED LIFTING AND STORING
Potatoes are ready to lift when the foliage starts to
die down
Potatoes are ready to lift when the foliage starts to die down. Remove leaves with signs of blight.
Take care not to damage tubers, lift and leave them on the ground to dry.
Place in a paper bag and keep them in the dark, so they do not
sprout. Check regularly, and dump any looking diseased.
BEAT THE SQUIRRELS
Harvest nuts before squirrels and birds make off with them
Harvest nuts before squirrels and birds make off with them.
Hazelnuts are ready when the husks turn yellow.
Store in a dry room in a net bag. Once they are fully dry, remove
the husks.
Walnuts (Juglans regia) have a fibrous casing, which should be removed using gloves, before drying in a cool oven at 40C – then keep them in a dry place.
PLANT OF THE WEEK
ACTEA SIMPLEX (BRUNETTE)
Actea simplex or baneberry is a herbaceous perennial, which grows well in moist soil in dappled shade.
In autumn, it produces spikes of tiny fragrant white flowers which are purple in bud.
These are a good source of late nectar for pollinating insects and
are followed by poisonous berries.
Actea simplex ‘Brunette’ is a cultivar that has been given the Royal Horticultural Society
Award of Garden Merit. Its deep purplish brown foliage contrasts well with its ghostly
white blooms.

Kamala Harris and Donald Trump arre askikng voter tⲟ choose Ƅetween an immigration crackdown аnd reproductive гights
Aѕ their race for tһe US presidency comes dоwn to tthe wire, ｅach
major candidate haas leaned heavily ᧐n a favorite theme — abortion гights for Democrat Kamala Harris ɑnd
bordeer security fߋr Republican Donald Trump.
Ιn Arizona, their ideological duel һaѕ reached a white-hot peak, ѡith
bboth topics the subject of fiercely debated ballot referendums.
Αnd in this key southwestern state — whеre the bilionaire Trump lost
tо President Joe Bidn in 2020 byy a tiny margin ⲟf aboսt 10,500 votes — evеry
ballot tгuly willl count.
Ιn thе mid-sized city оf Tucson, hundreds oof volunteers іn orange T-shirts
werｅ ging door-to-door to trry to persuade voters tоo back a balkot msasure to inscribe
abortion rights in the ѕtate constituution —
and, while thеү’re at it, tο votte for Vice Presiident Harris.
Тo Grace Ireland, ɑ 26-yeɑr-old activist, the abortion restrictions imposed byy ѕeveral Republican-controlled ѕtates аmount to
“a public health crisis that Donald Trump and the Republicans have created.”
Ⴝhe added, “Democrats and Kamala Harris are trying to push us forward and protect women’s health care and protect our democracy and protect all people.”
Une pancarte barréе du slogan “L’indifférence aux élections est dangereuse”, à Tucson, en Arizona, le 16 oсtobre 2024
Sincｅ 2022, wһen the US Supreme Court ended thhe constitutional protection ߋf federal abortion rights, Ireland, ɑ registred nurse, has wօrked in sevеral
states where abortion is banned оr severely limited.
Thoise restrictions һave had somеtimeѕ
disastrous consequences fоr women һaving problem pregnnancies oｒ carrying nonviable
fetuses ѡhen doctors refuse t᧐ treat them.
“Women are going septic and dying because they cannot receive the care that they need,” ѕhe tоld AFP.
– ‘Abortion іs murder’ –
As Ireland carries һer message too potential voters, ѕhе noted, рarticularly to young people ᴡhο mɑy be ⅼess liкely too
vote, tһat it was Donzld Trump who alpointed the
three justices who tipped the Suprdme Court аgainst
abortion rights.
Donald Trump lors ⅾ’unmeeting à Tempe,
en Arizona, le 24 ߋctobre 2024
“It’s important to reiterate that Donald Trump and these abortion bans are one and the same,”
Ireland ѕaid.
But in Tucsn therｅ iѕ littlе unanimity ɑmong young voters.
“I do think that abortion is murder,” saіd Pedro Lopez, a 20-yeаr-olԀ college student.
“There are cases of incest or rape” that merit exceptions, һe conceded,
“but that’s very small.”
Hｅ aⅼso worries аbout tһe flow օf undocumented migrants tһɑt һave entereԁ thhe country fгom Mexico dᥙring
tһe Biden-Harris administration.
“People that are entering the United States illegally… should be sent back to where they came from,” hhe ѕaid.
“My grandparents migrated from Mexico to the United States, and they did it the right way.”
So һe pans not only tо vote fοr Trump, but toо back the
proposal tօ ⅼеt local laaw enforcement detain, arest ɑnd prosecute ɑnyone suspected of hɑving enterеd the
country illegally — powers normally reseved to the
border police ԝһ᧐ wօrk fⲟr thhe federal government.
“I know people that work for the Border Patrol, and they’re really upset because this current administration has really tied their hands up. They’re not really able to do anything,” Lopez
ѕaid.
– Mixed impact –
Ꭲhe mauor ppolitical parties ѕee the competing referendums as
offering ɑn opportunty tto mobilize m᧐rе people
to vote — on ballot quesions аt thе vеry heart of the two presidential campaigns.

But tthe referendums may not have thе cⅼear imact onn tһe race for tһe White Housae tһat activists hope.
Poll ѕһow Trump and Harris running neck-and-neck in Arizona, ѡith the Republican holding a very narrow
lead.
Both ballokt questions, mｅantime, haѵe drawn strong support аnd botһ aρpear liklely to pass.
Ꮪօ the abortion issue mɑy not be “helping Democrats in the way that they would hope,”
said Jenny Brian, a professor oof bioethics at Arizona Ѕtate University.
Ⅿany Republican women wіll vote Ƅoth tto profect abortion rіghts
and too bring Trump back tо the White House, Briasn said.
Ꭲhough abortion іs sometimes framed as a Democrat
νs. Republican issue, the Republican Party іncludes “a broad spectrum of views on the topic,”
an issue thаt also raises conservatives’ concerns ɑbout “government interference,” ѕhе added.
Τhe samе dynamic applies to immigration, witһ the tougher language օn the Arizona ballt question finding
suppoprt not јust аmong Trump Republicans but also “moderates and even many Democrats,” said John Kavanagh, а Republican annd aan Arizona ѕtate senator.

She appeared on the bonus Ask Me Anything episode with Adam, in which they discussed their budding romance.
As the new couple fielded questions about their bond, musician Adam cheekily boasted about the couple’s sizzling chemistry.

ANGELA HARTNETT’S BEEF & VEAL MEATBALLS
Meatballs are super-quick to make for a weeknight supper and there are many ways to
serve them (see tip). The veal in these gives a lightness to the result, but
you can swap it out for all beef, or flavourful pork mince.
This is a good way to use up any day-old bread
hanging around. The recipe is easy to double up on and freeze so
you have a meal for an emergency.
SERVES 4
4 tbsp olive oil, plus extra for the onion
1 onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, chopped
400g tin chopped tomatoes
200g white bread (day old, if possible)
whole milk (enough to soak the bread)
500g beef mince
250g English veal mince
2 tbsp finely grated parmesan, plus extra to serve
4 anchovies, finely chopped
2 tbsp chopped flat-leaf parsley
salt and freshly ground black pepper
350g dried spaghetti, to serve (optional; see tip)
1 First make a tomato sauce. In a saucepan, heat a dash of
olive oil over a medium heat, then add half the chopped onion and half the garlic, then sauté
for 10 minutes to soften. Add the tomatoes and when the liquid
starts to bubble, reduce to a simmer and leave to cook, stirring occasionally (about
20 minutes, to create a thick sauce), while you make the meatballs.
2 In a bowl, soak the bread in the milk until soft.
In another bowl, mix the beef, veal, parmesan, anchovies,
half the parsley and the rest of the onions and
garlic. Then add the soaked bread, lightly squeezing any excess milk from it first.
Mix well and season with salt and pepper. Mould the mixture into 12-14 meatballs.
3 Put the 4 tablespoons of olive oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat.
When hot, add the meatballs, turning (for about 5 minutes) to
ensure they colour all over. If necessary, cook in batches so they are not all squashed together, setting each batch aside on a plate while you cook the remainder.
4 To finish, remove the meatballs from the pan and set aside.
Pour the tomato sauce into the frying pan over a medium heat.
Put the meatballs back into the pan for a further 4-5
minutes to cook through. Sprinkle with the
remaining parsley before serving.
TIP You can serve the meatballs as they come, or on top
of spaghetti. If you would prefer the latter, cook the pasta according to the packet instructions
until al dente. Drain it in a colander, reserving a cupful of the cooking water to loosen the meatball sauce if necessary, and then transfer it back to
the pan and toss it with a little olive oil and
butter. Put the spaghetti on a serving plate and top with the meatballs and sauce.
Finish with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of parmesan.
Australians have discovered an unlikely pop-up store
offering shoppers ‘incredible’ deals on clothing, homewares, food, and electronics.
The temporary Vinnies locations have been set up
around Victoria to help shoppers get through the cost of living crisis ravaging the country.
Vinnies, or the St Vincent de Paul Society, is a charity
that works to provide support and assistance to people in need.
Most items are brand new stock donated by corporate partners including Christmas decorations.
Popular bargains include $10 large jars of Biscoff, $2 bags of Red Rock Deli chips,
and discounted shoes from Boston Bros.
Shoppers will find men’s, women’s, and children’s clothing, shoes from top brands, and even electrical
goods at the Vinnies pop-up locations.
Many have purchased vacuums, air fryers, Adidas shoes, printers, and kitchen knives from previous pop-up shops.
There is presently a location in Ascot Vale which is open until 3
November, and another in Boronia which will remain open until
Christmas – or until stock runs out.

A new store will open in Richmond at Dimmey’s on 7 November.
The themed Richmond location will focus on goods for Christmas, summer, and
the holiday season – but it will also include household items, Bric-à-brac, and
electrical items.
Shoppers have shared their thoughts on the pop-up locations online.
‘They have all the trending products – it’s so awesome,’ one said.
‘I bought a hair dryer from Vinnies and I’m obsessed with it,’ another wrote.
‘I always have such good luck at Vinnies, I have to
go,’ a woman added.
For those interested in the finer things, shoppers have discovered a ‘hidden gem’ discount retailer where you can find designer buys
from brands like Fendi, Dior, and Aje for affordable prices.
TK Maxx – which has stores in New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland and
South Australia – is the answer to buying new clothes
and shoes on a budget.
TK Maxx has stores in New South Wales , Victoria, Queensland and South Australia
Beth Zazlan, from Queensland, recently found a gold mine
of clothing lines from Australian brands
like Camilla and Marc, Acler, Bec+Bridge, Shona Joy, Dion Lee, Zimmerman, and Acler.
‘I was there for a pillow but I ended up grabbing some sparkly earrings from [American jewellery brand] Badgley Mischka,’ Beth told FEMAIL.
TK Maxx sells old stock from previous seasons – and shoppers have described
it as a ‘clearance treasure hunt’.
Many have seen bags from Fendi, Dior, and Bottega Venetta on sale.
Others have spotted Gucci and Versace sunglasses,
Hugo Boss accessories, and Christopher Esber dresses.
Beth said, ‘I was truly blown away – so if you’re looking for a bargain, head there.’
A David Jones employee revealed in a comment that discounted items from
stores that aren’t sold are shipped to TK Maxx.

Nothing signals the start of winter quite like the return of the Fair Isle knit.
Once considered ‘ugly’ knitwear we’d only pull out from the
back of our wardrobes as an alternative to a Christmas jumper (especially the red-nosed reindeer kind à la Mark Darcy in Bridget Jones’s Diary) or for a winter sport holiday (specifically for
après-ski), the Fair Isle jumper has now become somewhat
of a fashion statement.
The knit is named after the small, eponymous
Shetland Island in Scotland and uses a traditional knitting technique to create those distinctive patterns with multiple colours.
It was brought into vogue by an earlier Prince of Wales (later Edward VIII)
in the 1920s, and has remained a casual wardrobe staple for members of the Royal Family, including Kate Middleton, whose jumper collection includes at least three different Fair Isle designs.
Kensington Palace
Another fan of the nostalgic knit is Alexa Chung, who recently layered a Fair Isle vest by
Molly Goddard over a light blue button-down in a snap for Instagram.
The It-girl previously also wore a V-neck vest from Cotswolds-based
knitwear brand Cooking Apple, and sported a chunky Fair Isle crewneck with
white, straight-leg jeans, black loafers and an oversized,
black leather blazer to ring in the festive season at private
members’ club in London last year.
A host of designers have dropped Fair Isle-inspired
knits for AW24, proving the multicoloured jumpers have become a timeless
investment. If, as in our case, that £1,885 cashmere turtleneck from Loro Piana is a little out of
your budget, there are countless options on the
high street. The cropped cardi from Hush certainly
caught our attention, as did the Fair Isle knit that was featured
in the John Lewis Christmas advert.

Talk is low cost, so we’ve spent the week putting the work in and hopefully the rewards will come on the weekend.
Nevertheless, you possibly can negotiate with them to provide complementary services.
The existence of an exclusive hideaway for the country’s movers
and shakers where secret deals were done in private luxury first exploded into the
public eye back in 2007.
Back then, the fact that Qantas spent hundreds of thousands of dollars wining and dining
the nation’s political elite in ultra-exclusive VIP lounges was relatively unknown.
It was a time before Alan Joyce’s tenure as the CEO of
Qantas had even started, when he was boss of the comparatively lowly budget airline, Jetstar.
And unlike Anthony Albanese’s current slide in the polls leading up to an election in next year, the
prospects back in 2007 were rosy for Labor.
The election that was looming was the ‘Kevin 07’ landslide that would see Kevin Rudd become
prime minister and John Howard lose his own seat.
The issue which blew open the ‘guilty secret’ of the Chairman’s Lounge then wasn’t about a prime minister’s privileges, although John Howard and
Kevin Rudd were certainly both members during their
terms as PM.
But when broadcaster Steve Price – himself a long time
Chairman’s Lounge member – revealed a politically charged remark made within the club’s hallowed walls, the cat was out of the bag.
The political revelation – a comment by
ex-rock star turned senator Peter Garrett that Labor would change
the policies it campaigned on if it won government – did not deter his party from romping in on election day.
In contrast, the scandal currently engulfing Anthony
Albanese about his Chairman’s Lounge membership and that of his ex-wife Carmel Tebbutt, and their son Nathan could bring
down the prime minister.
The exclusive Qantas Chairman’s Lounge (above) has
been a well-kept secret for years, but it exploded into the public conscience in 2007 as the result
of a political furore
Broadcaster Steve Price revealed he had been a Chairman’s Lounge member since 2002 during a row before the 2007
election won by Kevin Rudd which let the cat out of
the bag about the VIP club
The existence of the lounge was so little known back in 2007 that
in defending his disclosure of Garrett’s remark, Steve Price had to explain what the private enclave actually was.
In a first person piece he wrote: ‘The Chairman’s Lounge is a
separate frequent flyers lounge away from the crowded normal Qantas Club.
‘As its name implies, the people given access to it are
approved by the Qantas chairman, Margaret Jackson.
‘I have been a Chairman’s Lounge member since 2002.’
In his opinion piece, Price also revealed TV entertainment
reporter Richard Wilkins was also a member of lounge.
Wilkins had also been inside at the time and was his only witness to the remark Price said Garrett had made.
Other prominent media figures, such as 60 Minutes reporters,
actors and performers, and well-known writers and sports people are said to be among the lounge’s
exclusive membership of around 6000.
Price went on to defend himself for reporting
what some claimed was a confidential conversation in a private place, but which
exposed him to criticism over his own membership for allegedly promoting Qantas
on his radio show.
Back in 2007, Alan Joyce (left) was boss of the comparatively lowly budget airline Jetstar, and then Qantas CEO Geoff
Dixon (right) had the power over who made the cut
to the Chairman’s Lounge
One observer has described the relationship bet6ween leading politicians such as PM Anthony Albanese and the
former Qantas CEO Alan Joyce (above) as ‘alarmingly cosy’
‘Why on earth is Qantas giving a controversial shock jock membership of its Chairman’s Lounge, which is supposedly to enable our elite politicians and business leaders some privacy from the hoi polloi?’ demanded Crikey reporter Stephen Mayne at the time.
‘The Chairman’s Lounge is meant to be all about discretion and confidentiality,’ he said, accusing Price
of breaking ‘a confidence’.
The following year, before he was succeeded as Qantas CEO by Alan Joyce, Geoff Dixon was the sole gatekeeper of entry into the club’s hushed confines.
Qantas Chairman’s Lounge membership was ‘so exclusive that you
have to be personally invited by the airline’s chieftain’,
Nine newspapers reported in 2008.
‘A marvellous benefit of lounge membership is that the mega
rich and powerful avoid having to mingle with the riffraff who will be travelling
cattle class.
‘Having said that, members of the ultra-exclusive club have included Pauline Hanson.
‘Another lounge member is Brad Cooper, who is currently enjoying
a prolonged exposure to cattle-class in Kirkconnell Correctional Centre.’ (Cooper was the former
HIH insurance executive jailed for eight years on fraud and bribery
offences).
Membership of the elite lounge is confined to about 6000 Australians
including politicians from both sides, senior public
servants, TV stars and actors
The ‘scandal’ currently engulfing Anthony Albanese about his Chairman’s Lounge membership and that
of his ex-wife Carmel Tebbutt, and their son Nathan could bring
down the prime minister (above the PM with partner Jodie Haydon and ex-Qantas CEO Alan Joyce)
The report noted that politicians declaring membership of
the lounge ‘which most of their spouses got too’ in their pecuniary interests that year included Liberal
MPs of the day, Philip Ruddock, Bob Baldwin and Andrew
Southcott.
Labor MPs with lounge privileges included Tanya Plibersek, Bob McMullan, and
Sharon Grierson, and Martin Ferguson declared a bottle of Grange hermitage as a
gift from Qantas, as did Liberal, Christopher Pyne.
Asked if all MPs got the captain’s pick from Geoff Dixon,
the airline’s spokesperson told Nine: ‘We like to
retain a bit of mystery. Membership is by invitation only and it
is reviewed periodically.’
Fast forward to today, and nearly every single federal politician in the country has
accepted free membership of the controversial, invitation-only lounge with one
even describing it as an ‘entitlement’.
Qantas and the Albanese government recently
denied the ‘very, very high-end perk’ gives the airline a disproportionate level of influence
over the country’s politicians.
They were commenting ahead of the launch of the new book The Chairman’s Lounge by former Australian Financial Review columnist Joe Aston, which has stirred up the controversy.
A Daily Mail Australia audit of the members’ interest registers – in both Federal Parliament’s House of
Representatives and the Senate – revealed almost 93 per cent of the nation’s
leaders have been ‘gifted’ membership to the lavish,
all-inclusive lounge.
Mr Albanese has defended himself by saying he declared all his benefits in pecuniary interest
statements.
At a press conference this week, he repeated that all of his upgrades ‘have been declared as
appropriate. What’s appropriate is transparency.’
Apart from the PM, members include every one of
his 22-person Cabinet, his seven-person Outer Ministry
and all 12 assistant ministers.
PM Anthony Albanese and every member of his 22-person Cabinet, his seven-person Outer Ministry and all 12
assistant ministers are members of the exclusive Chairman’s Lounge
Entry to the country’s six opulent VIP clubs are suitably discreet, but once inside, the designer lounges offer free à la carte fine dining,
table service and a discreet army of dedicated lounge attendants
On the Coalition side of parliament, Opposition Leader Peter Dutton,
deputy leader David Littleproud and former deputy Barnaby Joyce are also
among the swathes of politicians who have disclosed they
have taken up free membership to the contentious club.
Bill Shorten is a member, Tanya Plibersek is still a
member and so is Teal MP, Zali Steggall.
Last year it was reported that Australian Competition and Consumer Commission chairwoman Gina Cass-Gottlieb and Australian Securities
and Investments Commission chairman Joe Longo and some of their deputies are members of the Chairman’s Lounge despite regulating
the airline.
Senior public servants in the club included Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet secretary Glyn Davis, deputy secretaries Nadine Williams, Liz Hefren-Webb, Rachel Bacon and ambassador to Beijing,
Scott Dewar.
Other Qantas freebies bestowed on members include
numerous business class flight upgrades, model Qantas aircrafts, frequent flyer points, and tickets
to sporting and entertainment events.
Touted as ‘the most exclusive club in the country’, membership
to the Chairman’s Lounge is still veiled in secrecy.
The new book The Chairman’s Lounge by former Australian Financial Review columnist Joe Aston (above) has stirred up the controversy

Even the entrances to each of the country’s six opulent VIP clubs – in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, Canberra and Perth airports – are suitably
discreet.
Once inside, however, the designer lounges are noticeably luxurious, with free à la carte fine dining, table service, a decadent selection of wines
and Champagne and a discreet army of dedicated lounge attendants.
Virgin Airlines has its own version of the VIP enclave, the ‘Beyond’ lounge.
Only a handful of federal politicians have relinquished their membership to the Qantas Chairman’s Lounge in the
wake of the furore.
The select few to take a principled stand on the issue include South Australian senator Barbara Pocock and former Wallabies star turned ACT senator David Pocock, along with MPs Stephen Bates, Queensland Green Elizabeth Watson-Brown, and Monique
Ryan, a Teal from Victoria.
Geoffrey Watson SC, a former counsel assisting the Independent
Commission Against Corruption and a director of
the Centre for Public Integrity, has implored all politicians and policymakers to follow suit.
‘There are certain positions in life where you cannot take Chairman’s Club membership,’ he said.
‘You’re taking public money for the job and you are supposed to represent the public.
Why not sit with them while you’re waiting for a plane?’
