[Title] => Gin Blossoms blooms in Manila
[Summary] => Mission accomplished!
The Gin Blossoms, one of my favorite alternative rock icons in the ‘90s – who earlier claimed that they didn’t know what to expect from the Philippines – came, saw and conquered such uncertainty during their concert at the Araneta Coliseum last Nov. 18 followed by another concert in Cebu City the next day. About 8,000 fans packed the big dome in Quezon City while 4,500 watched the band performed at the Waterfront Cebu.

[Title] => Back to the good old days with Gin Blossoms
[Summary] => I was just a kid during Gin Blossoms’ heyday — the frantic ’90s — but its music lived on through the years and eventually became a staple during my high school days in early 2000s.

[Title] => Countdown to cherry blossoms
[Summary] => Tracking where and when cherry blossoms, or sakura, will bloom is a serious business here. They are monitored like crops that need to be harvested, while the Japan Weather Association (JWA) provides updates on dates of bloom.

[Title] => Inmates ill after eating banana blossoms
[Summary] => COTABATO CITY — More than a hundred inmates at the North Cotabato provincial jail are afflicted with a "mysterious disease" which authorities are still trying to determine to have a basis for treatment.
Catholic radio station dxND reported yesterday that the arms and legs of at least 199 inmates became swollen after they ate banana blossoms cooked in coconut milk five days ago.

[Title] => The ‘sakura’ mystique
[Summary] => The Japanese call them sakura, those white flowers with crimson hearts which they celebrate in arts and lore. The flowers have a short life, bursting in quite a magical manner all at once out of barren branches at a preordained moment in the beginning of spring. After a few days in the apex of their beauty, they fall off as quickly and as silently as they came.

[Title] => Magic Moments Under The Cherry Tree
[Summary] => 
Every year, the Japanese plan for Hanami, a religious, traditional event where they go on a picnic and view the flowering of the sakura, the Japanese cherry tree. I’ve always been intrigued by the sakura since a friend gave me sakura seedlings and planted them in my old house in Pasig 16 years ago. Every year, it blooms with unceasing regularity and my neighbors would gape, mesmerized in worshipful awe by the multitude of its flowers.
