"Everything that is created begins in the mind"
Where does negativity get us in life? No where. It gets us even more depressed when we should be focusing on the things that we could change. I've been through many bad situations in my life, and have still managed to come out on top. Life is a bit of a roller coaster right now and far from perfect. I know it will be better, because I will make it better. Until then ,why cant we just appreciate what is in front of us, be thankful that our families and children are healthy, fed and have a roof over their heads? The things you don't like, change them, rather than dwell on why they bring you down. When you get up in the morning, look in the mirror, realize you're probably a pretty wonderful person and attack today with a fire under your ass. It's your life, and no one else's, and wouldn't you want to live the most amazing life you could ever have?
I spent seven years with someone who controlled every aspect of my life, had me living in fear, didn't have an ounce of respect for me and my family, BEAT THE SHIT out of me, SEVEN years and two children I gave this person of my life to be miserable. All I could do was dwell on the misery, and the negativity when that person wasn't around continued to weigh me down. He was getting what he wanted and I was allowing it. As much of a jerk he was, subconsciously I was telling him that it was okay to treat me like that by accepting it. One morning I got out of bed, and looked in the mirror. I realized I hated what I had seen. I no longer cared about my appearance, I had given up and changed so many things of myself for someone else down to what kind of music I listened to. I never read books anymore, I didn't craft, and worst of all I hadn't laughed or smiled in days. What kind of mother could I be? What was I showing my children by allowing someone to have so much control over my life? What kind of future was I setting up for their lives by living that example? I was failing myself, and the people I loved most by letting my negative attitude take over. That's certainly not a way to live life by any means! The only person who can change your life is YOU, and it's YOUR life. I looked in the mirror, put some makeup on, did my hair and decided I would change MY life. I realized I wanted to be 90 years old one day, look back and say that was one hell of a ride. I would tell myself every day I was a great person, I would read, I would make new friends and I would go find my own happiness away from someone who didn't deserve a second more of my time.
My life has become so much richer since. I know I am a wonderful person, I know I CAN do anything I set my mind to. I know my kids can look up to me as a strong,independent woman. I may have ups and downs, and I certainly still have my insecurities, but overall my life is so much richer, and I appreciate the things that matter the most so much more.
It's your life, and your negative attitude isn't going to make your life any better. Start realizing how wonderful you are and how many people you are blessed to have in your life, and how blessed they are to be in yours. If you don't like that you have some extra junk in the trunk, do something about it! Eat better, work out! You can't get the body you want by sitting on the couch and eating your sorrows away. If you don't like your love life, if it be that your partner is just not the right person for you, do something about it! Life is too short to waste another second with someone who doesn't deserve your time. If you are unhappy about not having a partner? Maybe you should get out there some more, or maybe you need to focus on what makes you such a great person so that you can love yourself and be ready for that perfect partner. But do yourself a favor, when you meet someone, don't just settle. You deserve someone who is just as amazing as you. If you don't like your job, find a new one or go to school! Do something about whatever makes you unhappy in a positive and healthy manner instead of dwelling on it! My point is that life is just too short to be unhappy. I know this sounds like a pep rally at the end but you are wonderful, and deserve the world. It's at your fingertips, you just need to have the right attitude to mold your life to what it should be.

Nice post. I have a barely on-topic question for you and readers.

I've noticed that most "portfolio" tracking tools, whether they be part of a brokerage (Sharebuilder) or simply finance tools (Google Finance), focus helping you analyze historical capital gain growth well but are very lacking in tools for analyzing dividend related stats and total growth.

Anyone have an suggestion on non-brokerage tools that allow you to easily see and sort your portfolio on things like current yield, personalized yield-on-cost, periodic dividend growth, personalized dividend growth, and finally personalized total return? Bonus points if you can sort on net change over configurable periods.

Ideally I'm looking for something free but a small one-time cost might be okay as long as they give a trial first.

Any help?

The man who donated Dh38 million to Rashid Hospital
Emirati who donated towards outpatient facility catering to expats and locals says zakat should be a way of life and not just a one-off gesture
- Image Credit: XPRESS/PANKAJ SHARMA
- son of the soil: Abdulsalam Al Rafi, chairman of Abdulsalam Al Rafi & Sons with a 1948 picture of the old souq where he began his career as a trader with his father
Dubai: For a man who has just given away Dh38 million for a public hospital in Dubai, Abdulsalam Al Rafi is most self-effacing.
Seated in a modest room on the first floor of his head office in the old souq in Deira, he agrees to an interview on the condition that he will not talk about it. But ever since the Dubai Health Authority announced on Wednesday that it signed an agreement with the chairman of Abdulsalam Al Rafi & Sons to fund an outpatient services building at Rashid Hospital, there's no escaping from the spotlight for him.
"I'd rather not talk about it," insists the gentle 65-year-old who has been silently donating to several causes over the years.
Immense joy
"It's just something he does to give back to our country which has given us so much. He believes in Islam and derives immense joy from giving," says one of his four sons, Mohammad Abdulsalam Al Rafi.
But there's a reason why Abdulsalam chose Rashid Hospital for his largest donation yet. "Health is a priority and Rashid Hospital is the hub of healthcare in the UAE. People, both Emiratis and expatriates, come here not just from Dubai but all over the country. Its expansion makes sense as it will benefit the community."
So when plans for an outpatient services building were being discussed, he volunteered to pay for its entire cost. A state-of-the-art complex, it will have 84 clinics and will be a one-stop-shop for all outpatient services (see box).
When complete by mid-2014, it is expected to considerably reduce waiting time at the busy hospital where it sometimes takes several weeks to get an appointment.
Abdulsalam has contributed to many clinics in the UAE and beyond. Among them is the Al Salam Diabetic Centre at Al Baraha Hospital.
Like health, education is another priority area in his charity work. He has built three schools in South India and has generously donated to Dubai Cares over the years.
"With education, you can achieve anything," he says, adding he is a student of the Al Ahmadiya School in the Al Ras area.
Son of a deeply rooted Emirati family, Abdulsalam began his illustrious career as a trader when he was 13. "My grandfather and father were based in the old souq dealing with foodstuffs and general trading. We got into exports and imports and diversified into the property business in the 1970s."
There has been no looking back since. The family, which owns several prestigious properties, is identified with such signature projects as the Chelsea Tower, Marina Heights, Du Tower and the Sheraton Burj Al Salam Tower, besides innumerable other buildings in old and new Dubai.
"In those days, there was nothing in this area," says Abdulsalam, pulling out a published picture of the souq from the late forties. "The Creek was the best thing that happened to Dubai. Look where we are now — you can't compare any country in the world with Dubai and what it has achieved under the vision of our Rulers — the late Shaikh Saeed Bin Maktoum Al Maktoum, Shaikh Rashid Bin Saeed Al Maktoum and now His Highness Shaikh Mohammad Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai. They've shown the way and are an inspiration to others."
According to Abdulsalam, Zakat should be a way of life rather than a one-off gesture practised once a year. Whether its paying people's hospital dues or utility bills, his acts of kindness are many. "It's mainly needy expats who come to us," he says.
Anyone who knows him will vouch for his simplicity, generosity and his humane side. His subordinates at work are also authorised to make donations and they refer cases to him only when larger amounts are involved.
At a time when other big Emirati businessmen have moved out, he is one of the few who still works from the old souq. He comes to the office early and stays on till late in the evening with a lunch and siesta break in between.
While he flits from one appointment to another during weekdays, weekends are strictly for family, including his two sons, two daughters and 14 grandchildren. "I look forward to Thursdays and a Friday family lunch at our farm in Al Khawaneej," he says.
His sense of humility is unmistakable and his message straightforward: "Fear God, be good and be honest. All doors will open to you — in business, family relationships and every sphere of life. If you happen to fail, don't be discouraged. Just be sincere, pick up the pieces and move on. There is always a way out."
Outpatient building: One-stop Shop
The outpatient services building at Rashid Hospital will have 84 clinics and will be a one-stop-shop for all outpatient services.
A two-storey building, it will have all laboratory and radiology services, 42 rooms including minor treatment rooms, wound clinic, pharmacy, nursing room for mothers, mosque for men and women and a cafeteria on the first floor. The second floor will have 42 rooms for all disciplines, including surgical specialities and ECG rooms.
Eisa Al Maidour, Director-General of the Dubai Health Authority, said the complex will help reduce waiting time for appointments and alleviate pressure on services provided by Rashid Hospital. He said the Dh38 million donation will be used to build the outpatient services facility as well as provide equipment for all diagnostic, laboratory and therapeutic services. Hospitalisation services will also be provided to in-patients.
Dr Shawqi Khoori, CEO, Rashid Hospital, said the project is scheduled for completion by mid-2014.

One and done: Bruins assign Matt Bartkowski to Providence
|01.11.11 at 7:59 pm ET
The Bruins announced prior to the second period of Monday night's game vs. the Senators that they have assigned defenseman Matt Bartkowski to Providence. Bartkowski, 22, was recalled on an emergency basis Sunday night and made his NHL debut Monday in place of the injured Adam McQuaid.
McQuaid was suffering an undisclosed injury, though he made his return to the lineup on Monday, logging 5:45 of ice time in the first period.
In 34 games in Providence this season, Bartkowski has four goals and eight assists for a total of 12 points.

Nmap Development
mailing list archives
Thank you for your reply David. I was sure it was likely the old version of
Mac OS X or X11.app that was causing me trouble, but was hoping that since
the OS/CPU combination is still officially supported by nmap (10.5 x86 aka
32 bit Intel compatible) as seen here:
there was some other resolution besides: Install OS X 10.6.
I do have the latest version of XQuartz that is 10.5 x86 compatible, and
may give that a try soon (theirs is version 2.6.3 and the Apple official
version is 2.1.6), but I don't want to rush into it as I have other X11
software (Wireshark for example) that works as is. If they both work with
XQuartz, great! But what if one works with Apple's X11 and the other only
with XQuartz? Unlikely, yes. But potentially quite a hassle.

23rd Oct: It's time for the second TV Tropes Halloween Avatar Contest, theme: cute monsters! Details and voting here.
main index
A trilogy of Disney films where a bunch of misfit kids play hockey.In the first movie (released 1992; called Champions in some countries), Jerk Ass hot-shot attorney Gordon Bombay (Emilio Estevez) is sentenced to community service after driving while intoxicated. His duty is to coach a rowdy pee-wee hockey team simply called "District 5." As the cold Bombay softens up, his bond with the kids grows and the team is renamed "The Ducks" after Bombay's employer Mr. Ducksworth. The Ducks eventually make it to the finals, where they face the Hawks, the team Bombay once played for as a kid; in fact, the coach of the Hawks is still the same man, Jack Reilly. Bombay was disillusioned by the sport when he cost the Hawks the championship with a missed penalty shot.In the second movie (released 1994), a year after the Ducks defeat the Hawks to win the championship, Gordon, with a renewed passion for hockey, tries out for the minor leagues but his dream is shot down by a knee injury (from a cheap shot by a frustrated opponent no less). He is then approached to coach Team USA in the Junior Goodwill Games. Unsurprisingly, Gordon recruits his Ducks, along with a couple of other players to represent Team USA. Team USA proves to be a force to be reckoned with, but fame and fortune get to the team, especially Bombay, as they are pummeled in a game against Team Iceland. Soon after Bombay learns that the game is not about celebrity but about having fun, he is able to put the team back on track, and they compete as the Ducks in a re-match against Team Iceland that will decide the championship.In the third movie (released 1996), the Ducks are accepted scholarships to the famed Eden Hall Academy, the high school Bombay attended. They also get a new coach in the form of Ted Orion. Orion irritates Captain Charlie Conway with his less-lenient teaching methods ("Your little duck tricks won't work anymore!" Orion remarks), switching of the teammates' positions, and by renaming them the Warriors. The team also faces adversity from the varsity team, as the former Ducks were accepted into the Academy instead of their younger siblings. After Conway becomes more accepting of his new coach following some self-reflection and a pep talk by Bombay, Orion also softens up a little, and re-renames the team the Ducks, and the stage is set for a game against the varsity team.Despite also being by Disney, the eponymous animated series has nothing to do with the films.

INDIANAPOLIS, IN—Paul George knew what every player was feeling inside while each pick was made Thursday night.
Every time David Stern stepped to the podium to announce the next pick he found himself in the same position as last years draft, nervous.
But, why? One would think this draft would be smooth sailing compared to last year, where George was the Pacers first draft pick in the lottery (10th overall).
"I was still nervous for the guys getting drafted," George said. "I know what they've been through. So it's kind of the same nerves a little but it's just toned down a lot more."
The lives of each player selected in this year's draft are about to completely change. More publicity, more stress and of course more money come along with being selected in the NBA Lottery. George has taken time out of his own schedule to meet with some of the rookies that are coming into the league.
"The most advice (the rookies) have been asking is when they're interviewed by teams," he said. "That's been the funniest part about their whole transition is they're so nervous walking in front of teams and what to say."
When George's name was called just a year ago most Pacer fans found themselves asking the question, who is Paul George? One year later his name is much more prevalent around the organization as well as with fans. In his first season with the Pacers, George averaged 7.8 points and almost four rebounds per game.
He may still be a young face in the league, but he hasn't taken any of it for granted.
"I'm thankful for this organization to give me a chance," he said. "It's been a great start to my career here."

Outperforming conventional compressors with Linde-engineered efficiency gains
The gas is compressed in the cylinder by the up-and-down motion of the liquid column, similar to the reciprocating motion of an ordinary piston. Because the hydrogen is compressed at an almost isothermal temperature, ionic compressors are considerably more efficient than conventional compressors. The compressor can also be used with liquid hydrogen. The liquid is simply vaporised and then compressed.

Carl Nicks was signed by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers before the 2012 season, and his addition promised to provide an All Pro at guard for the Buccaneers, who were looking to run the ball more often under new head coach Greg Schiano.
But a severe foot injury, months of rehab, followed by a MRSA infection and continued complications with his original injury has placed the guard on the bench for most of his time in Tampa Bay, and according to a report, he may never see the field again.
Mike Garafolo of FOX Sports reports that his sources in Tampa have told him that Nicks will see a specialist to determine the extent of his injuries, and whether or not he'll return to the field any time soon.
Nicks is reportedly dealing with the symptoms that he experienced after injuring his foot for the first time in 2012, and it's not known if that has anything to do with MRSA, or if it's just a continuation of a severe foot and toe injury he suffered a year earlier.
The Buccaneers are on the hook for plenty of money to Nicks, because at his best, he's a dominant player at his position. But that's not enough to call him a "bust," because his injuries were far from predictable, and it's possible (although allegedly proven unlikely) that the team itself caused the second major injury (the MRSA infection).
It's a shame that a terrific player may never play again, or never resume playing at his usual level.
But from a football standpoint, the Buccaneers will have a decision to make with Nicks, who is highly paid but can still be released to save money in future seasons with a cap hit in the short term. Nicks' trip to a specialist to learn more about his injuries should be very telling.

I probably always overestimate my abilities, which probably then explains why I end up being really disappointed with myself when I don't reach the targets I set. I overestimate my perseverance, my stamina to take on heavy workloads. I overestimate my brilliance and ideas, only to be crushed when they don't seem to prove themselves in solid evidence. I overestimate my optimism, my ability to recover from a setback. I always try so hard to do well but I never seem to reach my targets. It's so frustrating, and silly as it sounds, I have always feared my intelligence declining with age. I feel stupider than I did 5 years ago. Perhaps a flame has dimmed in me? Then on whom will I depend on to light the path I will walk on for the rest of my life?
I feel lost. I feel stupid. I feel insecure. I feel ugly. I feel lonely. I feel useless. I feel exhausted. I feel unreal.
Today is not a good day.
I feel like I was totally cheated of my feelings…
What SM does it that it buys the rights of less popular songs or demos and then rearranges them in their own studio as a 'new' track for their artistes. SHINee's Juliette, f(x)'s Danger and Girls' Generation's Genie were all bought from American artistes. I never knew this! I thought all the wildly popular, chart-topping songs were original creations from SM!! I thought SM was genius to create such awesome songs!!!
The magic of SHINee and SNSD is lost for me :'( Now I pray YG and Cube Ent are not going to do the same…
They eat, sleep, study, play and go wild.
Like we do.
I'll seek you out,
Flay you alive
One more word and you won't survive
And I'm not scared of your stolen power
I see right through you any hour
I won't soothe your pain
I won't ease your strain
You'll be waiting in vain
I got nothing for you to gain
I'm taking it slow
Feeding my flame
Shuffling the cards of your game
And just in time
In the right place
Suddenly I will play my ace
I won't soothe your pain
I won't ease your strain
You'll be waiting in vain
I got nothing for you to gain
Eyes on fire
Your spine is ablaze
Felling any foe with my gaze
And just in time
In the right place
Steadily emerging with grace
Felling any foe with my gaze
Steadily emerging with grace
Felling any foe with my gaze
Steadily emerging with grace
G-Dragon looks fucking scary here.
1. I hate words, which is why I would rather watch a movie than read the book it was adapted from.
2. I love black and white and grey and any other variations/combinations of these colours.
3. I'm trying to grow out my hair but it's taking awfully long and already I have half a mind to chop it all off (blame the weather).
Thank you for your kind words!

Olvera is known as "the King of the Pueblo Blancos" (white towns) and it was declared a Protected Area of Artistic and Historical Importance in 1983. It is a friendly town with a population of around 10,000 and has all the amenities you will need to enjoy your holiday including numerous shops, banks, internet cafe, bars and restaurants. There is also a municipal swimming pool and bar which is open during the summer months.

Alan Pearson, Andalusian Artist
Alan Pearson, a retired maintenance engineer from the UK discovered a passion for painting as a young boy, and has developed his art around the scenes he sees in his daily routine. Many of the canvases in Alan's portfolio date back to the 1980s while working in England, although he has been at his most prolific since moving to Spain.
Cycling on the Via Verde
By TRISTAN CANO author of Historic Walking Guides: Gibraltar
The Via Verde de la Sierra is one of 20 so-called 'green routes' which chart a trail of disused railway lines across Andalucia. Forming part of a proposed rail route across the Cadiz Sierra between Almargen and Jerez de la Frontera, it would have connected the cities of Malaga and Granada. Although much of the groundwork, including tunnels, viaducts and railway stations were completed in the early 1930s, the project was never finished and lay in neglect until 1993 when the line was renovated for use as a walking and cycling route.
We started our day in the town of Olvera where we were staying in the charming Casa Andalus on Calle Maestro Amado. Like many of the other white towns in the vicinity, Olvera's roots are Roman and the town went on to flourish during the Muslim occupation of Spain. It has a Moorish Castle constructed on a rocky crag high above the town which, like parts of our own Moorish castle, was built during the 13th Century Nasrid Dynasty. Some of the original Moorish walls and their supporting buttresses remain intact, but most of the Castle was built after the reconquista. Another noteworthy building in the town is the twin-towered neoclassical church of Nuestra Señora de la Encarnación whose impressive façade dominates its surroundings and was built on the site of a former mosque.
We followed the short though steep path from the town centre down to the Antigua Estación Ferrocarril which marks the starting point of the Via Verde. This hotel offers bicycle rentals and is the last opportunity to pick up refreshments before you reach the Estación de Zaframagón, 15 km along the route. The reasonably flat terrain makes the route perfect for cyclists and we opted to hire bikes, although plenty also chose to follow the route on foot. We were immediately impressed with the scenery, a distinct patchwork of brown and green fields with endless olive tree groves looking like blobs of green paint on a watercolour just asking to be painted. The Via's thirty tunnels are a feature of the journey and we overcame nine of these before reaching the first official rest-stop at Estación de Navalagrulla. Although we had enjoyed a slight downward gradient thus far and barely broken into a sweat, we would be following the route in reverse on our return later and enjoyed a welcome respite, noting the need to conserve as much energy as possible.
As we got closer to the Estación de Zaframagón, the landscape began to transform from arable land into forests of Spanish Firs. We were transported through mountains and river valleys with the help of immense viaducts and increasingly lengthy tunnels. The viaduct at Zaframagón offered inspiring views of the Peñón de Zaframagón, an impressive 584m-high limestone outcrop with sheer cliffs, and the verdant valley below strewn with delightful stone ruins. Overhead we saw our first venue of about a dozen Griffon Vultures. Two hundred breeding pairs live in these mountains and there is a nature centre dedicated to them at the nearby Estación Zaframagón which includes a video feed showing live footage of the vultures on the opposing rock face. The centre closes daily at 16:00 and a vending machine, which is available until that time, provides another opportunity to get much-needed refreshments before reaching the town of Coripe. Although we had originally intended to end our cycle at the Zaframagón we were feeling relatively spritely and decided to soldier on to the next Estación.
The Guadalete and Guadalporcún rivers join at around the 26 km mark of the route but the Guadalporcún meanders alongside the cycling track all the way from Zaframagón to the Estación de Coripe which has also been transformed into a hotel and restaurant. There is not much happening in the town of Coripe itself which is about 2 km from the track however a small diversion from the Coripe Viaduct takes you to the Chaparro de la Vega. This supposedly 700-year old Holm Oak of enormous dimensions is an Andalucian National Monument and plays its part in local traditions by providing a meeting point for the villagers of Coripe on their annual pilgrimage during the Fiesta del Virgen de Fatima, their patron saint.
Following Estación de Coripe, the route continues to the third and final hotel at the Estación de Puerto Serrano which adjoins the town of the same name. However having already cycled 22 km we were acutely aware of the 200 metre height climb on the return route and set off on the arduous journey back to the start. About 2 hours later and with tired legs and saddle sore beginning to rear its painful head, we arrived at the hotel at Olvera, dropped off our bikes and were happy to place our feet firmly back on terra firma. Our walk back to town was slow but pleasant, not only for the sense of achievement we felt for having completed our long cycle, but also due to the beautiful purple and pink Sierra sunset that accompanied us on our way. We were aware that our legs would soon be stiffening up, so grabbing a quick shower at Casa Andalus, we headed out for an early dinner at the lively Restaurante Lirios before retiring to what was always going to be an excellent night's sleep.
Though predictably sore and stiff from the previous day's cycle, we opted for an early rise and a trip to the Ermita de Nuestra Señora de Los Remedios which overlooks Olvera from a nearby hill. This sanctuary, built on the site of an 18th Century hermitage is apparently visited by 300,000 devotees each year who bring offerings to the Señora in fulfilment of their vows. The interior of its colourful chapel is a pastiche of numerous gaudy styles dominated by a shocking amount of gold plating, and stands adjacent to stunning courtyard overrun with potted plants. A room upstairs was undoubtedly the most interesting, housing the devotions deposited by visitors: hundreds of photos, items of clothing, locks of hair and numerous other knickknacks set down often in memory of long passed loved ones.
Next on the agenda was the village of Zahara de las Sierra where the remains of a castle recall its day as a Moorish outpost. Despite its small size (population of about 950) thousands of visitors are attracted to Zahara each year by its picturesque setting perched atop a mountain, overlooking a valley and a man-made crystal blue lagoon. After a quick photo stop, we moved on to Setenil de las Bodegas, possibly the most unique town in the area. After driving through twice, we finally managed to find a parking space to explore this fascinating town where many of the houses are built into the walls of a huge mountain gorge. Setenil shows evidence of human occupation for at least 2,000 years but was possibly occupied by troglodytes long before then.
Olvera can be reached either via Ronda (taking the E-15/AP-7 in the direction of San Pedro de Alcántara and then the A-397 to Ronda, followed by the A-374 and following signs for Olvera) or via Jerez (taking the A-381 to Jerez/Los Barrios/ Seville and then the E-5/AP-4 to Seville, before taking exit 80 towards Arcos de la Frontera). Casa Andalus is a 'self-catering' house which can be booked by calling Karen/Andrew on +34 951276249, mob. +34 689665342). Bicycles can be rented at the Antigua Estación Ferrocarril hotel at the start of the Via Verde at the price of €15.00 per day.

Poster for Olvera and Ronda Carnavals
Ronda Today received an email from a very excited local artists today, Alan Pearson, a man whose art is already featured in our artist pages. Alan emailed us to tell us he'd won a competition in Olvera for artwork to be used in the town's Caranval 2010 poster.
Alan is justifiably pleased to have been selected because he's made such an effort to integrate into the local community, with many prominent Spaniards in Olvera calling him a friend. As winner, Alan's painting was selected from 10 submissions, and also won 300€ in prize money.
The artwork selected was a piece painted by Alan a wee while ago, and shows what Carnaval in Olvera might have looked like at the turn of the 20th century. The castle and church in Olvera can be seen towering above the townsfolk as they enjoy Carnaval in the streets of this beautiful little town only 30 minutes away from Ronda.
In Alan's painting you can see a group of people playing a traditional game of Cancarro where a pottery jug is thrown around the circle, and behind them a swing setup with a rope suspended across the street.
Carnaval in Ronda is also scheduled for February, and below you can see Ronda's Carnaval poster designed by José María Sabater, known locally as 'Chemi', a popular computer design artist.
Carnaval is a time of great celebration in Spain, and whilst not as flamboyent as those in Brazil they are certainly still very enjoyable. Look out for grand processions, street parties, and side show alley at the feria grounds in Ronda.
In the streets children will be eating candy floss, holding aloft balloons, singing Carnaval songs, and playing games. All told, Carnaval is a time when Spaniards let their hair down and party.
Pauline Emmens, Fabric Artist
Hello, my name is Pauline Emmens and I am in my mid fifties. I moved to Olvera in January 2009 together with my husband Jim, having spent the previous 22 years in Oswestry in Shropshire. I originate from Wigan in Lancashire, although we have lived up and down the UK depending on the work situation.
I have been sewing for pleasure starting off, as many do, with cross-stitch. Once I had mastered this technique I felt I wanted to bring more creativity into my work so I started attending various embroidery workshops.
This really wetted my appetite for the creative side of stitching and I was hooked (or needled) so to speak. Having studied traditional and contemporary techniques for the last three or four years, I gained my City and Guilds certificate in design and contemporary embroidery in 2007.
I have also attended various workshops with internationally known artists in the embroidery word, using mixed media and a myriad of advanced techniques and equipment. Sometimes I look at all the tools in my workshop and wonder whether I am a plumber, electrician, builder or embroiderer.
When living in the UK I was an active member of the Embroiderers Guild.
I am now drawing inspiration for my work from my new surroundings in Olvera, and looking forward to new and exciting ways to expand the materials and context of my work in this new environment. I want to create some pieces that incorporate the views and the environment as well as continuing with the more contemporary side.
While most of my work is designed to decorate the home, I am also anticipating having the time to create some varied pieces for commercial consideration.

I cannot say enough about Kenny from Promo Productions- he was fantastic! From the very beginning he proved to be extremely knowledgeable in his field and he is very down to earth and easy to work with! His website is great and makes planning painless! He has every aspect covered and you just fill in what you want and it has a link directly to a music library so you can preview and ensure you are selecting the right songs. We planned out the key events and then let him take it from there and that he did! Fantastic!! We had everyone out on the dance floor the whole night and there was something played for everyone's taste! Many guest commented on his great service and said he was the best DJ they have heard at a wedding. Not only did he take care of the music but he acted as almost a coordinator for the night keeping us right on track, and he also would add in cute details- that we provided to him about us and how we met throughout the night which I thought was a personal touch! In addition Kenny also provided up lighting and a lighted custom monogram that was displayed on the wall. This really added to the ambience of the room! Hands down best around and I've been to a lot of weddings- one of which I discovered Kenny at and knew I had to have him do ours! I would recommend him to anyone! We couldn't of asked for more!!

The first weeks of the New Year have come and gone, and with them many of our New Year's resolutions. I always have the best intentions at the beginning of the New Year. I promise myself that I will lose weight and exercise daily. Sometimes, however, our best plans and sincerest hopes are just too hard to achieve.
We live in a culture where thinness reigns supreme. As a result, many of us set a firm intention at the start of each New Year to lose weight. Finally, several years ago, I came to terms with my body. I accepted the fact that I will not have a model's figure. Instead, I decided to be healthy and live my life eating a healthy plant-based diet. I started to study macrobiotics. I then began to make smart, healthy choices around food. Initially, I began by incorporating whole grains and beans into my diet. I started this journey slowly, changing one meal at a time. At first, I still ate fish and chicken, thinking that those were healthy proteins. As I studied more about macrobiotics and healthy eating, I eliminated those foods as well—but gradually. At breakfast, I began to eat oatmeal instead of egg whites and at dinner my proteins became tofu or beans. I supplemented my meals with a large variety of vegetables cooked in a myriad of interesting ways.
For me it is important to eat foods that I find satisfying. I don't like to feel deprived, and eating a plant and grain based diet leaves me feeling full longer than other approaches to eating. There are so many options. I enjoy beginning my meals with soup, which is very warming and settling. Although I don't count calories, I know that vegetable or miso soup contains few calories but lots of nutrients. Research has shown that when we begin a meal with a soup we tend to eat less overall. I add lots of vegetables to my plate and round them off with whole grains, which are very satisfying.
Over the months, I have learned more about preparing healthy meals. For example, I do not use a microwave because I feel that it strips the nutrients from the food. I use high quality sea salt and shoyu. I experiment with seaweed recipes a couple of times a month and make sure to eat organic seasonal foods. I only eat fruit every other day. I've eliminated sugar, chemicals, diet soda and caffeine. Much the same, I just say no to saturated fats, sugar, processed foods, and meats. Dairy is totally eliminated from my diet, but almond and soy milk taste great. I get loads of calcium from vegetables sources.
I feel amazing and my friends and very supportive husband insist that I don't look my age.
Many people confuse being a vegan with being macrobiotic. This year it has become an "in" thing to be a vegan. There is a plethora of vegan cookbooks. Many articles extol the benefits of a plant-based diet and veganism is in vogue. But being vegan does not necessarily mean being healthy. Many vegans eat sugar, white flour products, and processed foods. I want to treat my body kinder than that. However, becoming a vegan is a great way to start to add plant-based foods and grains to your diet. When I initially eliminated meat and dairy from my diet for health reasons, I lost 20 lbs. Now that was positive feedback!
If I have one New Year's resolution for 2011 it is to speak openly about living a macrobiotic lifestyle. Embracing macrobiotics means embracing a holistic, healthy and balanced way of living.
It is not easy to change the way you have lived your entire life. We all grow up with bad habits that are tough to break. Changing the way we eat may be the toughest change to make. It is also hard to do it alone. Look for support and spend time with like-minded people. I participate in vegan and macrobiotic cooking classes. I teach healthy cooking classes and enjoy being around people who eat and support my way of eating. Success has a major payoff and it is worth the effort.
If you want to feel healthier and have more energy, give this type of diet a chance. Little changes can make a big difference. Brown rice can alter the way you see the world. Why not try it? You have nothing to lose!
