THE POWERHOUSE IS GOING PLACES!

The Choiseul PowerHouse is “powering ahead” in Cyberspace with the speed of light. Some claim we are hard-hitting and controversial; some claim we are intellectual and academic! Some even claim we are political! Everybody is right! We are all of those things! We have a diverse global audience and it is our pleasure to stimulate your intellectual taste buds and we make no apologies for that. The bottomline is we are independent and have no affinity to any organisation: political or otherwise! We will continue to publish our "power articles"

We wish to extend special thanks to followers for their support. We also encourage you to post your comments and feedback on the Blog using the comments link following the Articles.

Welcome to the POWERHOUSE family blog!

MAN VS NATURE: THE BATTLE FOR CHRISTMAS (IN PHOTOS)


Despite the proliferation of barrels on the wharf, there wasn't any sign that we would celebrate Christmas this year. Somehow, the "Christmas feeling" wasn't there. Up to two shopping days before, Super J was practically empty of shoppers. 

Then Christmas Eve arrived and perhaps the most epic battle in recent memory happened. It was a battle between Man and Nature! And nature won hands down!

Here are some photos of the collateral damage that Choiseul suffered:
