Awesome, more progress with the backend of the website, now the site has a new addition.

Because there have been some changes to the site, click your refresh button, to be sure you are currently viewing the new changes.

So go ahead and add your entry to the new guestbook.

We have now added support for BBCode and SmartQuotes to the Guestbook, so you can use coloured, underlined, bold text and more.

Update: The guestbook has since been removed, we apologize for this but the Guestbook became a target for spam over the years that became increasingly difficult to combat. You can still post comments on the blog or forum.

Rap Battles At The Palliser Hotel

There was good support for Ynui Hip-Hop on Friday night, from our own rappers - D-lo squad and Infamouz who pulled off a good performance. A lot of energy goes into producing tracks and it shows when you get up on stage and perform in front of a crowd of people.

MC Rocka hosted the night, Chozin Few from Porirua started the night off, Infamouz second then D-lo squad to finish the group performance, Rocka jumped up to show his beatbox talent.

The night ended with the rap battles, with special guest judge Usouljah choosing Lyrics from D-lo squad as best battler. DJ Crome was the heart beat of the night, who has been D-lo squad DJ since the start, but that was his last night, now that he's making the move to Aussie.

Good work for D-lo squad with organising the event, this gave people a reason to get together and enjoy what they are there for, to show what hip-hop is all about.

We want to get together with D-lo squad and Infamouz and help them setup their own websites, this will happen in the next couple of weeks, so be sure to check back.

If you have been down the mall and noticed across from McDonald's, that there is a Wainuiomata Business School and if you have been thinking about doing a computer course, to upskill your career prospectives, you should go and have a chat with them.

Wainuiomata Business School, have three staff members, who are first aiders, best of all, they also live right here in Wainuiomata.

On the 15th of February 2005, Wainuiomata Business School was audited by NZQA. The ratings are Bronze, Silver and Gold - Quality Education as a whole company, all 17 branches nationwide received a Gold.

See Quality Education has been running for approximately 12 years and teaches courses from Level 2 - 3 in Applications and they have an awesome Doc5 technical course. All courses are NZQA approved. They don't just have national qualifications, they also have international qualifications - Mos, A+ and Net+ - with more to come!

So why go over the hill to study? when you can study right here at home!

How would I know if they are any good at their job? because I'm a graduate through them.
