Lace, chiffon and tiny details were used very well making the gowns look extremely classy. Hair and makeup was very natural and Summery with braided updos, light pink blush and a few of the models sported floral headbands.

Bermudas And A Back-Pack -- The Suspect In The Israeli Bus Bombing
Bulgarian investigators believe they have identified the suicide bomber who blew himself up on a bus yesterday, killing five Israeli tourists and the bus driver.
Bulgarian Interior Minister Tsvetan Tsvetanov described the suspect, with his bermudas and back-pack as indistinguishable from thousands of other travellers.
It is believed he put a bag in the luggage compartment of the bus and then climbed aboard. Many of the injuries suffered by the dozens wounded in the blast were to lower limbs.
Israel is pointing the finger at Iran although Tehran has formally denied any involvement in this, the first attack on Israelis on Bulgarian soil.
However Bulgaria's Foreign Minister Nikolai Mladenow said it was a "mistake" to blame countries or groups while an investigation is ongoing.
Police are still trying to identify the suspect. They say he was 36 years old and carrying a fake US driving licence issued in the state of Michigan.

STORMS TIME
On 25th May 2009, Cyclone Aila devastated southern Bangladesh, leaving an estimated 8,000 dead and over 1million homeless.
The IPCC claims that by 2050 1 in 7 Bangladeshis will be a climate migrant, forced from their homes due to ever-advancing sea levels, and the saline contamination and unemployment that inevitably ensue. With their land under water and their crops destroyed, many southern Bangladeshis have been forced to abandon farming for fishing, an industry that can only employ a fraction of the people who once worked on the now-vanished rice fields. As one former farmer explains, 'My conscience tells me to leave, but where else can I go? It's like a prison here.'
