A lot of eyes will be on three Bukidnon natives when the P3.5 million ICTSI Del Monte Championship gets underway on Tuesday.
Two of them have been given more than a fair chance to prevail as the Philippine Golf Tour enters its concluding three-leg swing in Mindanao.
However, the third native, arguably the biggest pro, adds an interesting dynamic to the competition.

**How to Light Up Your Porch This Diwali**
*By Simran Jeet | Oct 13, 2025, 07:21 PM*
Diwali, the festival of lights, is all about illuminating your home with warmth and positivity. Since your porch is the first thing guests notice, decorating it with creative lighting can instantly set a festive mood. From traditional diyas to modern LED setups, there are endless ways to make your porch glow beautifully this Diwali.
### 1. Floating Diya Bowls
Place water bowls on steps or tables, float diyas or tea lights inside, and sprinkle rose petals. This simple yet elegant idea reflects light beautifully and adds a calm, serene aura to your porch. Floating diya bowls create a mesmerizing visual effect, combining tradition and creativity while keeping the Diwali spirit alive in a unique, charming way.
### 2. Repurposed Bottle Lights
Upcycle empty glass bottles by painting them or leaving them clear, then add fairy lights or candles inside. Place these bottles on railings or tables for a modern, eco-friendly effect. These bottle lights are sustainable, visually striking, and easy to arrange, making your porch a cozy, contemporary corner perfect for Diwali celebrations.
### 3. Lantern Pathway
Illuminate your porch walkway with decorative metal or paper lanterns for a festive touch. The cut-out designs cast beautiful patterns of light and shadow, creating a warm, inviting ambiance. This arrangement not only guides guests safely but also adds charm and elegance, turning your pathway into a magical Diwali display.
### 4. Traditional Diyas for a Classic Touch
Nothing captures the essence of Diwali better than traditional clay diyas. Place them along the steps or windows of your porch to create a warm, inviting glow. For an added sensory delight, use scented oil in the diyas to combine fragrance with light. Arranging them symmetrically enhances the aesthetic appeal and gives a timeless festive feel.
### 5. Geometric Light Frames
Create a modern Diwali look by placing small LED lights inside wire or wooden geometric shapes. Hang them from the porch ceiling or mount them on walls to add a stylish, artistic touch. This approach blends contemporary design with festive illumination, giving your porch a chic and glowing ambiance.
Celebrate this Diwali by lighting up your porch creatively and warmly, making it a welcoming space filled with positivity and festive cheer!

**Purrfect Timing! A One-Year Homeowner and Her Feline Queen**
One year ago, this proud new homeowner was just settling in with two kids and a promise. Once the budget bounced back, they planned to adopt a cat. But the universe clearly had other plans—and didn’t want to wait.
One night, a determined feline showed up at their door, meowing as if she already had the keys. Within seconds, she’d claimed the house, leaping from counters to cabinets like a fuzzy parkour champion.
It turns out Angel (as she’s now lovingly called) had been abandoned by the previous owner and stuck around, waiting for her true family to move in.
What began as a stowaway story quickly transformed—Angel is now the queen of the castle, complete with her own bed on the cabinets and two kitten sidekicks to rule alongside her.
From stray to spoiled, this is one glow-up story for the hiss-tory books. Sometimes, you don’t choose the cat—the cat chooses you (and your mortgage).

**Songs of the Emerald Isle** (1955) — A Timeless Irish Travelogue Now Streaming Free on IFIPlayer
*Songs of the Emerald Isle*, an enchanting Irish travelogue from 1955, is now available to watch for free on the Irish Film Institute’s IFIPlayer. This short film beautifully showcases five much-loved Irish airs and ballads set against the stunning backdrop of the Irish landscape.
Featured performances include Bing Crosby singing “How Can You Buy Killarney?” (from his *St Patrick’s Day Parade* album), John Feeney’s rendition of “The Connemara Shore,” and Connie Foley’s heartfelt “Lovely Leitrim.” These evocative songs of yearning and nostalgia are brought to life with vivid imagery of Irish Travellers, fishermen, foresters, and farmers, alongside ancient monuments, lush farmlands, seascapes, and the majestic River Shannon.
In a charming scene set in Cavan, the Power Dancers and Ulster champion Marie McCluskey perform lively jigs and reels in a schoolyard, accompanied by an accordion player, capturing the vibrant spirit of traditional Irish dance.
**Filming Locations**
The film features picturesque locations including:
– Oughterard, Ashford Castle, County Mayo
– Fenagh Abbey, County Leitrim
– County Galway
– Cavan
– The River Shannon
– The western coast of Ireland
This digital copy was created from the only surviving print of the film, preserved in the IFI Irish Film Archive collection. The original 16mm print shows signs of wear and tear—such as occasional slight picture jumps and audio gaps—testaments to its popularity and frequent screenings. The Irish Film Institute hopes these minor imperfections will not detract from your enjoyment of this charming cultural gem.
