Highways officers will give an update on highways issues in the Ward.
John Dowson, Team Leader, Sustainable Transport provided an update on local highway issues. Points made included the following:
· He was not in a position to comment on the proposals for the new school because the application had not yet been brought to the Highways Department. Officers would respond appropriately on any scheme they considered to be unsafe.
· The North West Transport Project had received £20m funding from the Government.
· Highways officers considered the growth that would occur over the next 20 years; taking into account any plans for regeneration.
· Traffic problems around the Five Ways junction were acknowledged; it had the worst accident rate for a city junction and officers were looking at options for improvement.
· There was a considerable amount of traffic going though Woodgate on route to other areas and it was hoped that by creating a more attractive alternative route, traffic could be encouraged to use the A6 to Anstey Lane. .
Comments received from members of the community included the following:
· Concerns were expressed about potential accidents on Groby Road, with two lanes of traffic each way and vehicles turning right (for example into Medina Road). There were also concerns about the impact on Brading Road.
· There were existing traffic issues on Anstey Lane, particularly at the start and end of the school day and concerns were expressed that the situation would deteriorate further.
· With the ongoing regeneration, there would be even more traffic in the general area.
· Concerns were expressed about HGVs servicing Tesco. John explained that officers studied supermarket data to show the levels of traffic that might be expected and that methodology had been used for the Waterside regeneration.
· A pedestrian crossing was needed on the A6 to help people cross the road to Abbey Park; it was currently extremely difficult for pedestrians, especially for those with children for example.
· Concerns were expressed about parking at the Groby Road Health Centre.
· A different layout for parking had been requested at the Buckminster Road shops. John responded that there would not be a slip road under the current proposals , but there would be a delivery space. The Chair stated that she had asked for parking outside the shops to be time limited, to prevent people parking there all day. She asked Highways Officers to visit the site to observe the situation for themselves.
· A request was made for a residents’ parking scheme, as the parking situation would become even more problematical with the new houses and flats being built. Additional comments were made that people parked in Woodgate when visiting the Highcross and the city centre. John explained that there were residents’ parking schemes in the city; a consultation exercise would be necessary before any new scheme could be agreed. He was aware that the possibility of a residents’ parking scheme had been raised before. Councillor Cassidy suggested that residents may wish to submit a petition asking the Council to carry out a survey.
Councillor Cassidy asked that the request for a residents’ parking scheme be raised as an action from the meeting. Action Community Engagement Officer / Highways Officer.
· An attendee asked whether any progress had been made relating to speed measures on Darlington Road and Stokes Drive. Councillors explained that these roads were part of the Beaumont Leys ward but the query would be forwarded on. Action: Community Engagement Officer.
The Chair drew the discussion to a close and asked John to look into the issues raised.

In Dorset, the moth occurs in a variety of different habitats. It colonises unimproved grassland both on the coast, where it is common and on chalky soils inland where it is at low density. Singletons from a number of locations across the Poole Basin suggest limited colonisation of heathland or dispersal from the coast. Larvae have been found eating the flowers of stinking iris (Iris foetidissima) on the coast. In addition to the usual single brood between mid-July and mid-August, a number of June records indicate a partial first brood.

What you need to know
The U.S. has announced it will halt defense exports to Hong Kong, the first step in undoing the territory's special status. The move comes in response to new visa restrictions out of China.
The United States on Monday took first steps towards dismantling Hong Kong's special status under U.S. law, saying it will stop exporting defense equipment originating in the U.S. to the territory, as tensions over the financial center's autonomy from Beijing escalate.
"The United States is forced to take this action to protect U.S. national security," U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said in a statement. "We can no longer distinguish between the export of controlled items to Hong Kong or to mainland China."
The decision to halt defense exports and restrict the territory's access to high technology products came hours after China said it would impose new visa restrictions on U.S. citizens, a move that was itself a response to an earlier escalation on the part of the United States.
"We cannot risk these items falling into the hands of the People's Liberation Army, whose primary purpose is to uphold the dictatorship of the CCP by any means necessary," Pompeo said, referring to the Chinese Communist Party.
U.S. considers further measures
The U.S. Commerce Department said it was suspending "preferential treatment to Hong Kong over China, including the availability of export license exceptions." Further actions to eliminate Hong Kong's status were being evaluated, it said.
China is moving forward with a security law that would punish perceived subversion in Hong Kong. Critics of the law say that it could be used to silence dissent in the special administrative region, where anti-government protests have taken place over the past year.
In May, U.S. President Donald Trump had said he would revoke Hong Kong's special status, including the city's recognition as a unique customs territory separate from mainland China, as the territory was no longer autonomous from Beijing. The move could threaten Hong Kong's position as a global financial hub.

Sit down for a story...
Joseph Berry Interiors was set up in 2015 to provide a youthful, contemporary twist on the antiques and interiors market. We source a combination of unique, eccentric and ultimately different antiques, vintage and industrial pieces to offer what we call 'irreverent' Interiors.
Whilst we have leaned into continental mid century pieces from Italy, France, Holland and Germany the reality is that our offering usually ranges from 19th to 21st century. Visually we aim to affront, challenge and change the concept of what a home can look like.
We are based in Hampton Court in a stunning hidden Gallery opposite the station, open by appointment.
As we are often out of the country treasure hunting the Gallery is appointment only, which allows us the freedom to pursue the best stock, however there is usually someone back at base so we can open most days with notice.

With a career as both a performance artist and an abstract painter, Dale Frank’s ability to cross media and experiment with form and different methods of artistic experience has made his work deeply engaging with audiences around the world. Born in Singleton, New South Wales, in 1959, Frank lives and works in the Hunter Valley.
Frank began exhibiting in Australia in the mid-1970s, with periods spent working across Europe and the United States. With over four decades of practice, Frank has had a vastly experimental relationship with conceptual installation and a range of materials. In recent years, varnish and enamel have been mainstays, which he has skilfully manipulated to nebulous forms and surfaces in the colourful, poured paintings for which he has become well known. The final surfaces are sleek and polished, giving a liquid quality to the abstract, brightly coloured forms that lie beneath. Just like his performance art, which often aimed to engage the sense of touch or sound as well as sight, his paintings are visceral and tactile, with great attention paid to form and surface.
Frank’s international exhibiting career began at P.S.1, New York, (now MOMA PS1) in 1981. In 1983 Frank was included in the exhibition Panorama della post - critica: critica ed arte at the Museo Palazzo Lanfranchi in Pisa alongside Thomas Lawson and Anselm Kiefer, curated by Helena Kontova. The following year he was shown in the Aperto section of the 1984 Venice Biennale. In 2000 a twenty-year survey of Frank’s work, Ecstasy – 20 Years of Painting, was mounted at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Sydney.
In 2007 a monograph on Dale Frank was published by Black Inc Books, So Far: the Art of Dale Frank 2005-1980. Frank’s work is held in all major Australian national and state galleries, as well as in the Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tamaki, New Zealand, the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa, Wellington, New Zealand, the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York, the Zurich Kunsthaus.

This experimental investigation reports the convective heat transfer coefficient around the rotor of a transonic turbine stage. Both time-resolved and time-averaged aspects are addressed. The measurements are performed around the rotor blade at 15%, 50% and 85% span as well as on the rotor tip and the hub platform. Four operating conditions are tested covering two Reynolds numbers and three pressure ratios. The tests are performed in the compression tube turbine test rig CT3 of the von Karman Institute, allowing a correct simulation of the operating conditions encountered in modern aero-engines. The time-averaged Nusselt number distribution shows the strong dependence on both blade Mach number distribution and Reynolds number. The time-resolved heat transfer rate is mostly dictated by the vane trailing edge shock impingement on the rotor boundary layer. The shock passage corresponds to a sudden heat transfer increase. The effects are more pronounced in the leading edge region. The increase of the stage pressure ratio causes a stronger vane trailing edge shock and thus larger heat transfer fluctuations. The influence of the Reynolds number is hardly visible.

President Trump checked all the right boxes – well, some of the right boxes – after a self-identified white nationalist allegedly shot 22 people to death in El Paso to persuade “the Hispanic population … to return to their home countries.” Ignoring any echoes of his own earlier Twitterstorms urging migrants and “American-born congresswomen of color [to] ‘go back’ to their home countries,” Trump delivered prepared remarks condemning “racism, hatred and white supremacy.” Perhaps this time he meant it.
But the whole fandango brought back memories.
In October 1958 the high school in Clinton, Tenn., my county seat, was dynamited. The crime was never solved, but Clinton High was the first public school in the South to be desegregated under federal court order after Brown v. Board of Education. So the racial animus wasn’t hard to figure out. A few days later, after midnight on Sunday, Oct. 12, the Jewish Temple in Atlanta was firebombed by a shadowy group calling itself the Confederate Underground that proclaimed “Negroes and Jews are hereby declared aliens.” (Moviegoers of a later generation will remember it as the synagogue Jessica Tandy’s character belonged to in “Driving Miss Daisy.)” Both acts of violence were widely condemned, of course. But Ralph McGill, editor of The Atlanta Constitution, wasn’t having any of it.
“This is a harvest,” McGill wrote in a front-page editorial the day after the Temple bombing. “It is the crop of things sown.
“To be sure, none said go bomb a Jewish temple or a school.
“But let it be understood that when leadership in high places in any degree fails to support constituted authority, it opens the gate to all those who wish to take law into their own hands.”
There are differences between the 1950s and the present, of course. Then the issue centered on school desegregation; now it centers on immigration. History doesn’t repeat itself, as we so often are reminded, but it does rhyme.
And when Trump read his speech off the teleprompter – offering platitudes about “racist hate,” video games and “the perils of the internet and social media” – it rhymed like a three-page dramatic monologue in iambic pentameter couplets.
If Ralph McGill were here today, I’m sure he would have seen through it.
“There will be, to be sure, the customary act of the careful drawing aside of skirts on the part of those in high places,” he predicted after the Clinton High and Temple bombings in 1958.
“‘How awful,’ they will exclaim. ‘How terrible. Something must be done.’
“But the record stands. The extremists of the citizens’ councils, the political leaders who in terms violent and inflammatory have repudiated their oaths and stood against due process of law have helped unloose this flood of hate and bombing.”
Today’s extremists are different, of course. Instead of the White Citizens’ Council, we have dark money PACs, Russian internet trolls and white nationalists on social media platforms like 8chan. Instead of massive resistance to integrated schools, we have rallies where the president’s supporters shout “Send her back” when he mentions a political opponent and a U.S. senator offers to pay her airfare back to Africa.
But are all of today’s extremists so very different? Surely McGill would have recognized some of today’s white evangelical Christians who aid and abet the haters.
“This, too,” he said the day after the Temple bombing, “is a harvest of those so-called Christian ministers who have chosen to preach hate instead of compassion. Let them now find pious words and raise their hands in deploring the bombing of a synagogue.
“You do not preach and encourage hatred for the Negro and hope to restrict it to that field. It is an old, old story. It is one repeated over and over again in history. When the wolves of hate are loosed on one people, then no one is safe.”
McGill won a Pulitzer Prize for that editorial in 1959, and six years later President Lyndon Johnson awarded him the Presidential Freedom Medal. He fought the good fight when it was unpopular, even dangerous to do so, and his award came during the same year as the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
Then there’s this little footnote to history, too. McGill’s columns were syndicated in the Knoxville papers, and I read them as a student at the University of Tennessee. With journalists like McGill – and Horace V. Wells of The Clinton Courier-News, who also fought the good fight – as my heroes, I took inspiration as I wrote for The UT Daily Beacon and went on to cover police beat, school board and county commission meetings for papers in East Tennessee and later up north.
But, sadly, the good fight was never won. I suspect it never is.
Last year, after 11 people died in a mass shooting at the Tree of Life-Or L’Simcha synagogue in Pittsburgh and a white nationalist was charged with hate crimes in connection with the shooting, McGill’s 1958 editorial was reprinted widely. Ron Clark of the Poynter Institute for Media Studies, a Florida think tank for journalists, pointed up the similarities between the racists of McGill’s day and our president’s divisive rhetoric.
Words, Clark said, matter.
“That phrase is used frequently in reference to President Donald Trump and what are often called his “incendiary” tweets and speeches, his demonizing of political enemies and his scapegoating of certain ethnic groups, especially immigrants,” Clark said. “The argument goes that while the president did not pull the trigger, his language and political tactics have created a culture in which such acts could take place.”
In 1958 Ralph McGill concluded by urging Americans to stand up for the rule of law.
“It is late,” he said. “But there is time.”
Last year Clark of the Poynter Institute reprinted McGill’s editorial and urged his readers, mostly journalists, “Please read, learn and rededicate yourself to speaking truth to power.”
And he concluded in words similar to Ralph McGill’s.
“Written in 1958, published again in 2018,” Clark said.
“What can we learn?
“Is there yet time?”
Good questions. And if not now, I might add, when?
Whatever answers there are, I suspect, they will have something to do with speaking truth to power. Public reaction to the 1958 bombings in East Tennessee and Atlanta, in fact, began the process of healing wounds there and strengthening the Civil Rights movement. If not now, when?

ANZ Bank will be refunding $28.8 million to more than 390,000 retail and business accounts after it failed to disclose when certain periodical payments would apply.
ANZ reported the "significant breach" of financial services obligations to the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) after it found it was charging fees incorrectly based on its definition of "periodical payment".
A periodical payment are automatic "set-and-forget" fixed amount payments set by the customer, which lets them make regular payments to another account (to make fortnightly rent payments, for example), for which banks can charge a fee, depending on the terms and conditions for the account.
However, in the case of ANZ, the terms and conditions said a periodical payment was a transaction to "another person or business".
"This meant that transactions made by the customer to another account in the customer's own name, whether with ANZ or another financial institution, were not covered by ANZ's own definition of a periodical payment and could not be charged the fees that could otherwise apply to periodical payments," ASIC said.
ANZ found it was charging fees on payments made between accounts held in the customer's name.
The fees included:
- Non-payment fees charged on personal and commercial accounts when the payment did not go ahead due to lack of funds held in the ANZ deposit account; and
- Payment fees charged on commercial accounts when a payment is processed from the ANZ deposit account.
ANZ has now changed its terms and conditions to make clear when periodical payments applied to ANZ deposit account.
It has to pay $25.8 million in fees and an additional $3 million in interest by the end of September.

8 Ball returns to Oz
Multi-awarded global troubadour 8 Ball Aitken returns to Australia for an extensive four month Blazing Blues Summer Tour, traversing five state borders and the high seas – South Pacific, Bass Strait and Sydney Harbour – armed with his self-titled compilation album, his ninth release.
8 Ball says: “I’m following my heart with the Blazing Blues Summer Tour. When I was 15, I took the two-day train journey from Cairns to Brisbane to see B B King play and his concert changed my life, it was a spiritual experience and I was overwhelmingly inspired to be a musician. Since I’ve relocated to America and toured non-stop, I’ve been exposed even more to the origins of the blues and it feels natural to me to follow that path.”
The tour kicks off in Canberra at the Harmonie German Club on Friday October 14 and more than 50 shows follow from Queensland to Tasmania and beyond, including multiple performances in November at the Airlie Beach Festival of Music (International Patron), Cruisin’ Country 6 on board the Legend of the Seas and the Tamworth Country Music Festival in January.
An accomplished singer/songwriter and slide guitarist, 8 Ball now lives in Austin, Texas, and has a built a solid international reputation performing high energy, 100 percent original “swamp and hurricane blues”, country rock and Americana. He has also contributed to the soundtracks of high rating television shows on world wide distribution and counts bona-fide industry legends as his creative partners.
His videos, including the latest single Sleepy, She’s Going to Mexico, I’m Going to Jail, Girl In A Million, Seven Bucks An Hour In A Chicken Suit, Shut The Front Door and Yellow Moon can be viewed at www.youtube.com/user/8ballaitken.

Nominations open for 2017 Queen of Country Music Quest
Nominations for the 2017 Queen of Country Music Quest have opened with local Tamworth businesses and community groups urged to get involved in the event that’s been supporting local women since 1984.
This year, the Quest has been given an added boost with the announcement it will be run by the Tamworth branch of international female advocacy group Zonta, which empowers women through service and advocacy.
“The club is committed to expanding the Quest and are joining collaboratively with others in the community so the Quest can be an even more valuable experience for entrants, sponsors, employers and the whole community,” Deb said.
“Now in its 32nd year, the Queen of Country Music Quest empowers young women from the Tamworth region to develop important personal and professional skills like public speaking, networking and community service.”
Nominations close September 30, and are open to women aged 18-35 years who must be nominated and sponsored by their employer, a local business or community organisation to get involved.
All Quest nominees will receive professional development in October and November including workshops on etiquette, grooming, personal presentation, media training, confidence coaching and a six-week public speaking and leadership course from Tamworth Communicators Toastmasters.
In December, 15 Quest finalists will be named, then officially “sashed” at the Tamworth Country Music Festival Opening Concert on Friday January 20. These finalists will act as advocates of the Tamworth Country Music Festival and also of Tamworth as a destination of choice in NSW.
The major honours – Queen and Princess of Country Music – will be announced at a gala dinner at the Tamworth Jockey Club on Friday January 27.
The winner will be awarded the major prize, which this year is a trip to Tamworth’s New Zealand sister city Gore where she will represent Tamworth at the Gore Country Music Festival.
Both the Queen and Princess will be ambassadors for Tamworth and the region throughout 2017, spending the 12 months involved in a range of high-profile civic and community events, guest speaking engagements and corporate and festival functions.
Last year’s Quest Winner Madeline Lang encouraged local women keen on personal and professional development to seek nomination from their employer or community group.
“The Quest is a unique experience and I would absolutely encourage anyone who is interested in personal development to get involved. It’s also a great chance to learn new skills, gain professional and personal confidence and make some good friends along the way,” Madeline said.
Entrants must be available to attend all scheduled events throughout the Tamworth Country Music Festival and later events throughout 2017.

Michael and Allan collaborate
Michael Carpenter has released a “surprise” new single and video, a duet with co-writer Allan Caswell, Back When I Was Older.
Sydney based Michael releases the single to radio today and is also in the process of making it available on digital services.
The pairing came about as a result of the regular songwriting sessions Michael and Allan have been undertaking throughout the year, resulting in a stockpile of “great material”, with no immediate outlet.
A recent conversation between the two discussed the idea of starting a project together, but as both have recent releases, it didn't seem viable.
“We came back from lunch after basically talking ourselves out of doing a project together and wrote Back When I was Older almost straight away as a clear duet,” said Michael.
“At that point it seemed like fate was telling us the time was right."
They started recording their lead vocal parts with multi-instrumentalist Michael handling all of the musical content over the next few hours.
The track is described as “a rocking Australian country track” discussing the invigorating and confusing nature of getting a little older.
“Allan and I both feel like we’re liberated by our experiences as 'men of a certain age',” Michael said. “Everything used to be so serious and had so much 'importance'. Now we both seem to be having a lot more fun with our careers in this crazy music world. It's made us feel young again!”
Michael has had a busy year. Apart from his work as an in-demand record producer at his Love Hz Studios, he released a guitar pop solo album called The Big Radio early in the year, following that up with his alt country project The Cuban Heels and their new album Ain't Nothing Left To Say.
He's also part of the new country combo The April Family who are in the final stages of recording their debut album with two successful singles under their belt in 2016.
Allan Caswell needs no introduction. With seven Golden Guitar awards to his name, he’s no stranger to the Australian Country Music scene. He’s recently released his new album 50 Years In Oz celebrating his long career as a vocalist and prolific writer.
He recently broke his own record for the number of songs recorded in a single year... Back When I Was Older being number 54 for 2016.
Michael and Allan are now in discussions about the viability of turning this one off single into a full-length album project.
“One step at a time. Let's see how the single goes first!” Michael said.

Suzannah heads to Nashville
Suzannah Espie, one of Australia’s most recognised songwriters, has been performing a mix of country, soul, blues and pop since she first took to the stage with her alt country pop band GIT in 1997.
And this September she will be heading to Nashville as part of the Sounds Australia contingent of Australian artists to AmericanaFest, appearing at showcases at some of Nashville’s most iconic venues alongside Jordie Lane, Shane Nicholson, The Yearlings and more, from September 20 to 25.
Suzannah says she is thrilled to return to a place she cites as a spiritual home of the music she loves and heavily influences her writing. As well as performing, she will be involved in co-writing ventures and panels that run for five days as part of the conference, building networks and opportunites to tap into new markets.
Suzannah’s latest album is Mother’s Not Feeling Herself Today which tackles the subject of motherhood.
“It’s a sumptuous and ornate affair that isn’t afraid to venture into the dark, fear-wracked corners of the parental experience,” said a spokesman for the artist.
“The country soul sound of her music perfectly channels the emotion in her songs with great weight and sensitivity from traditional country to fragile folk. The standout of many highlights is the blues gospel feel of I’m Sorry featuring a 13 piece choir that includes some of Melbourne’s finest female singer/songwriters.”

NeillyRich stepping out In Nashville
Rising star duo NeillyRich are to make their Nashville debut at the famous Bluebird Café in September during Americanafest on September 20.
Matthew and Amelia will be traveling with the Sounds Australia contingent and playing showcase events that will also include well known Aussie acts Kirsty Lee Akers, Brad Butcher, Shane Nicholson and the Weeping Willows.
The artists were hand-picked to perform as part of the annual event with many demonstrating great potential for growth in the American market, said a spokesman for Sounds Australia.
"We could not be more thrilled with this opportunity,” Amelia said. “When Dobe (Newton) contacted our manager to tell us that we had made the cut we were over the moon. It has been such a massive year for us and this just makes us excited for where we are headed beyond 2016!"
“If country music ever needed a poster couple for the Tamworth Festival's ability to bring hearts and minds together, then look no further than this dynamic duo,” said a spokesman for the artists.
“As far as worlds colliding in Tamworth , these guys all but own that love story. Caught up in the excitement and energy of the 40th anniversary Festival in 2012, the two discovered their destiny was intertwined when they made sweet music together for the first time at the Australian Academy of Country music. They came to perform and left with a life-long bond.
“Now married, New Zealand born Matthew McNeilly and Kempsey girl Amelia Richards would probably best be described as the 'rough-around-the-edges' rogue and the 'beautiful rose' who tamed him. Together their musical chemistry is simply undeniable.”
"We love making music,” Matthew said, “but it's so tough to get a chance to perform in the USA at an event like this. As artists we are so incredibly grateful that Dobe and the Sounds Australia team present these types of opportunities. We can't wait to get on that plane!"
McNeilly Rich 2016 highlights to date include winning the New Zealand Golden Fern Award for Best Group/Duo, winning the Frank Ifield International Spur Award, achieving a UK Country Chart Number two song, being a nominated finalist for the Mo Awards, as well as supporting Kirsty Lee Akers and Daryl Braithwaite on national tour events.
The duo will be releasing a new EP in early 2017.

New from Sam
Sam Newton has released a new single titled Hold You Down.
A prolific songwriter, Sam has been writing and performing for 10 years, working within time-tested folk and traditional country and blues foundations reminiscent of Paul Kelly, Neil Young and Townes Van Zandt.
Billed as "a staple in the Australian Americana alt country scene," Sam’s expressive melodies and vivid lyrics tell stories of life and death, crime and punishment, love and loss, according to a spokesman for the artist.
Born in suburban Sydney to a music-loving family, Sam knew he was going to be a musician from the very beginning. He pleaded with his parents for guitar lessons at the commencement of high school and wrote his first song three weeks later. Now at age 28, he has toured nationally four times and put out two acclaimed releases.
"Hold You Down is a deeply personal song for Sam Newton," the spokesman said. "Its lyrics come from a place of truth that songwriters often don’t understand until combined with melody and chords. It speaks of emotional turmoil and the heavy burden caused by mental illness."

Ingredients for Banana Foster Pie
When it comes to making a delectable Banana Foster Pie, the key is to start with the freshest and ripest bananas. Here are the essential ingredients you’ll need:
- Graham cracker crust: A buttery and crunchy foundation for your pie.
- Ripe bananas: Look for bananas with yellow peels that have a few brown spots. They should be sweet and fragrant, perfect for adding natural sweetness to your pie.
- Caramel sauce: This luscious sauce adds a rich and indulgent flavor to the pie. You can either make your own caramel sauce or use store-bought.

Remember, the quality of your ingredients will greatly influence the taste of your pie. So, make sure to choose the ripest bananas and a high-quality caramel sauce for the best results. Now, let’s move on to the next steps in creating this irresistible dessert.
Now that you know about the delicious and indulgent Banana Foster Pie, it’s time to learn how to make it yourself! Don’t worry, I’ve got you covered with this step-by-step guide that will have you whipping up this mouthwatering dessert in no time.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare the crust. Start by crushing graham crackers into fine crumbs. Mix the crumbs with melted butter and press the mixture into a pie dish, making sure to evenly coat the bottom and sides. This will create a delicious buttery base for your pie.
- Slice the bananas. Take fresh and ripe bananas, preferably ones with a few brown spots for maximum sweetness. Peel and slice them into thin rounds. You’ll need about 3-4 medium-sized bananas, but feel free to adjust the quantity to your liking.
- Layer the bananas. Arrange the banana slices in an even layer over the graham cracker crust. Be generous with the banana slices, as they are the star of this pie and provide that luscious flavor.
- Drizzle with caramel sauce. Remember, the quality of the caramel sauce is key to achieving that perfect balance of sweetness and richness. Drizzle a generous amount of caramel sauce over the banana layer, making sure to cover all the slices.
- Bake the pie. Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for about 10-15 minutes, or until the crust turns golden brown and the caramel sauce starts to bubble. Keep a close eye on it to avoid burning.
- Cool and serve. Once the pie is done baking, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld together and the pie to set. Serve it warm or chilled, and feel free to add some optional toppings like whipped cream, chopped nuts, chocolate shavings, or a sprinkle of cinnamon for that extra touch of indulgence.
And there you have it – your very own homemade Banana Foster Pie, just like the one you love from Dave and Buster’s! Enjoy this decadent dessert with family and friends, and savor every delicious bite.
Tips for Making the Perfect Banana Foster Pie
If you’re looking to create a mouthwatering Banana Foster Pie that rivals the one at Dave and Buster’s, I’ve got you covered. Here are some expert tips to ensure your pie turns out perfectly every time:
1. Choose Ripe Bananas
The key to a delicious Banana Foster Pie is using ripe bananas. Look for bananas that are yellow with a few brown spots. Ripe bananas are sweeter and have a softer texture, which adds to the overall creaminess of the pie.
2. Use High-Quality Caramel Sauce
The caramel sauce is what gives Banana Foster Pie its signature flavor. Opt for a high-quality caramel sauce that is rich and smooth. You can either make your own caramel sauce from scratch or purchase a trusted brand. Whichever option you choose, make sure the caramel sauce is thick and has a deep caramelized flavor.
3. Don’t Skimp on the Crust
The crust is the foundation of any great pie, and Banana Foster Pie is no exception. Use a buttery graham cracker crust that complements the sweetness of the filling. Press the crust firmly into the pie dish to ensure it holds together and provides a satisfying crunch.
4. Layer the Bananas
To create a visually appealing pie, slice the bananas evenly and layer them over the crust. This ensures that every bite is filled with the natural sweetness of the bananas. If you prefer a softer texture, you can mash the bananas and spread them evenly over the crust instead.
5. Bake Until Golden Brown
Proper baking is crucial for achieving the perfect Banana Foster Pie. Bake the pie in a preheated oven until the crust turns a golden brown color. This not only adds a delightful crunch to the pie but also ensures that the caramel sauce bubbles and melds with the bananas.
6. Optional Toppings
While Banana Foster Pie is delicious on its own, you can take it to the next level with optional toppings. Consider adding a dollop of whipped cream, a sprinkle of chopped nuts, a dusting of chocolate shavings, or a touch of cinnamon. These toppings add extra flavor and texture, making each bite even more indulgent.
Remember, the success of your Banana Foster Pie lies in using fresh and ripe bananas, a high-quality caramel sauce, and a well-executed crust. With these tips, you’ll be well on your way
Now that you know how to make a delicious Banana Foster Pie, it’s time to think about serving it in style. Here are a few suggestions to make your dessert even more enjoyable:
1. Whipped Cream and Caramel Drizzle
Add a dollop of freshly whipped cream on top of each slice of Banana Foster Pie. The light and airy texture of the cream will beautifully complement the rich flavors of the pie. To take it up a notch, drizzle some extra caramel sauce over the whipped cream. The combination of the creamy topping and the sweet caramel will make each bite irresistible.
2. Chopped Nuts for Crunch
For some added texture and nutty flavor, sprinkle a handful of chopped nuts over the pie. Pecans or walnuts work particularly well with the caramelized banana filling. The crunchiness of the nuts will provide a delightful contrast to the smoothness of the pie. Plus, it adds an extra layer of indulgence to your dessert.
3. Chocolate Shavings for Decadence
If you’re a chocolate lover, why not take your Banana Foster Pie to the next level with some chocolate shavings? Use a vegetable peeler to create delicate curls of chocolate and sprinkle them generously over the pie. The bittersweet chocolate will enhance the sweetness of the bananas and caramel, creating a truly decadent experience.
4. Cinnamon for Warmth
To add a touch of warmth and spice to your Banana Foster Pie, dust a little cinnamon over the top. Cinnamon pairs beautifully with the flavors of caramel and bananas, giving the pie a cozy and comforting twist. It’s a simple yet effective way to elevate the taste and aroma of your dessert.
Now that you have all the information you need, it’s time to put your baking skills to the test and create your own delicious Banana Foster Pie. Remember to choose ripe bananas for a sweeter and creamier filling, and opt for a high-quality caramel sauce to achieve that deep caramelized flavor. The buttery graham cracker crust will perfectly complement the sweetness of the filling, while optional toppings like whipped cream, chopped nuts, chocolate shavings, or cinnamon can take your pie to the next level.
Once your pie is baked to perfection, consider adding a dollop of whipped cream and a drizzle of caramel for a creamy and sweet combination. Sprinkle some chopped nuts on top for added crunch and flavor, or indulge in some decadent chocolate shavings. And if you’re in the mood for a little warmth and spice, a dusting of cinnamon will do the trick.
So go ahead, gather your ingredients, and get ready to enjoy a slice of this irresistible dessert. Whether you’re hosting a dinner party or simply treating yourself, Banana Foster Pie is sure to impress. Happy baking!

Destiny Line was Leah Dizon’s 1st studio album. It was released on September 12, 2007 and reached number 9 on the charts with 27,502 copies sold. In all the album has sold over 55,091+ copies, that’s pretty good considering it was her first Japanese album and that she’s from the US. Leah also wrote 10 of the 14 songs on the album, not a bad start. This album was also released in CD and CD+DVD editions. On the CD+DVD edition a special mini-documentary was featured to the DVD track list.
2. Everything Anything
4. Koi Shiyou♪
6. Could you be that one?
7. Are you feelin’ for me?
9. Time (Clock Of The Heart)
10. Aishiteru~Love Story
12. L·O·V·E U
13. Drive me crazy
14. Again and Again
15. Koi Shiyou♪ ~yasutaka nakata-capsule mix~ (CD Only Bonus Track)
IMPOSSIBLE, the brass blasting opening. The song opens up with some brass instruments, followed by Leah’s vocals. Yet again Leah sings some English during the verses and the chorus, but it’s a good thing not a bad thing. The mood of the song seems a little pop with a bit of hip-hop. The chorus sounds great, filled with some edgy lyrics along with some English words. The music seems to fit the song very well. Not a bad opening to her first studio album.
Everything Anything, the cheery letdown. This song was included as a B-Side to her first single Softly. I normally love B-Sides but this song didn’t do it for me. The vocals were OK, but they sounded a little weak. The chorus did sound good, and the music was great though. I really think that the song could’ve been a bit better. For this B-Side’s full review, click here.
Missing, an acoustic ballad. The song begins with an acoustic guitar playing softly. Leah then begins to sing in Japanese ad in English. The chorus follows shortly. The chorus is a mixture of Leah’s vocals along with another groups vocals in the background, that’s what really kills it for me. The ballad seems sad throughout the entire song since the lyrics mention “I Miss You.” But besides that the song is very good.
Koi Shiyou♪, finally an up-beat happy song. This song was released as the second single in this era. It features some nice music beats and has that distinct summer feel to it. I love the song because it sounds so happy, but there are some flaws. The vocals seem repetitive at times, and the pace is a little too slow. Don’t let that stop you from listening, the song is worth its weight in gold. For the review, click here.
Unmei-sen, lit. Destiny Line, a slow paced pop ballad. This song gives its translated name to the album. The song opens up with some birds chirping followed by an acoustic guitar and some synth instruments in the background. The vocals are great and seems so at peace. The verses move so quickly and lead into the chorus. The chorus is a mixture of English and Japanese, and they come together to create an almost magical chorus. It’s quite catchy on the slow side of things, and it moves so smoothly. This was a great title track for the song and the album. This is easily on the softer side of Leah’s music.
Could you be that one? an up-beat pop song. Here we have yet another B-Side song on the album. This B-Side was released with Koi Shiyou♪. The verses were great, along with Leah’s vocals even though they seem high. The chorus sounded great, especially with the English. Towards the end you can hear some deeper vocals, and they too sound great. Click here for Could you be that one?’s review.
Are you feelin’ for me? an all English song. This time, Leah brings her A game by singing this song in English only. The music seems a bit dark especially with the synth instrumentals. The chorus sounds OK, but that’s about it, nothing jumped out at me. But the song was good, that can’t be denied.
Softly, the soft heart warming ballad. This song began it all for Leah, as it was the first song to be released as a physical single in Japan. The song moves so smoothly and features a beautiful chorus and great vocals on Leah’s part. This was such a great way to begin her debut in Japan, and a great track on the album. For the single that started it all, click here.
Time (Clock Of The Heart), the synth-uped cover song. This is a cover song of the song of the same name made famous by Culture Club. It seems to me that this song is sung entirely in English. The verses sound great, and the chorus is mind blowing. Leah’s vocals are great, and they go well with the background vocals. After the chorus the word “Time” can be heard, but that’s not necessarily bad, it sounds good and reminds me of an oldies song. The lyrics mention how “Time won’t give me time,” quite interesting. This is one of Leah’s best songs in my opinion.
Aishiteru~Love Story, a R&B B-Side. This song is what I’d call R&B in the flesh. It’s one of Leah’s few R&B inspired songs. The song is a little up-tempo and features R&B beats throughout the song. Yet again Leah proves to us that her English skills along with her Japanese skills are able to mesh together to create another unique sounding song. The chorus was good, but not the best. Still considering that this was a B-Side, it’s pretty good. Here is the full review of this little B-Side.
Wonderlin’, the sweet little pop song. Opening up with Leah’s vocals and some synth beats the song quickly becomes catchy from there. The song is really sugary/bubblegum pop all condensed into one song. The chorus is another fusion of English and Japanese lyrics that sound for the most part great, especially with the percussion instruments playing. From there it all seems to repeat, not that bad of a song really.
L·O·V·E U, did someone say cute and innocent? Released as the last single before the album’s release, this song features Leah singing in an innocent tone. The song begins with some English words that are quite catchy. The song screams cute and pop, very cute pop in my opinion. The chorus is a collaboration of English and Japanese and creates a cataclysmic chorus. Despite this being a cutesy pop song, it really stands out from the rest it seems. One of the best parts was the bridge of the song, which contained some whispered vocals and some great pop dance music, almost outer space like. Pop has met its match for sure. For the full review of this magical pop song click here.
Drive me crazy, the American model? One thing that stands out about this song is the American feel of it. It has a little urban feel to it, not much but a little. The verses sound a little aggressive for a Leah song, along with the chorus. But, the chorus does sound good, mostly because it’s catchy and the English, along with the the guitar playing. I just wish the song was a little better sadly.
Again and Again, the beautiful ballad. Again and Again was the first song that Leah and her brother composed together. It’s also the first song on her album to be given a PV, even though it wasn’t released as a radio single or digital single for that matter. The music is mostly water droplets and some strings. The lyrics were amazing and sounded so lovely. Again there’s a good amount of English used in this song, so that helps a bit. Leah really saved th best for last it seemed.
Koi Shiyou♪ ~yasutaka nakata-capsule mix~, the remix with all the beats. This song was originally released as a digital single, but also on the album as a CD only edition bonus track. This remix was remixed by Yasutaka Nakata of Capsule, hence the remix name. Here most of the background music has been replaced by synth and dance elements, making the song a bit more exciting. The song’s length is also extended, and that’s not a bad thing either. Leah’s vocals also seem a bit distorted; but, it makes the song even better. The chorus sounds greater than the original as catchy dance/electronic beats replace the seemingly boring original music. This is by far her best remix, and her only one as of yet. Not a bad ending song either.
Overall Review: Destiny Line was WOW! Or really mind blowing, either way it was fantastic. All the singles were great from this period. And the new tracks sounded even better at times. The album also featured a great mix of genres, as well as variety. The fact that Leah wrote 10 of the 14 is really amazing and it makes the album better, as it does with other artists. The title track seemed to be one of the better tracks on the album, a nice little touch. And the songs that were sung in English were just was good as the English-Japanese songs, that seems to be a rarity today. This is one of the best albums from an American artist that ventured into Japan. Props to Leah and her great debut album.
Final Grade: 95A
