Simon Calder's Holiday Helpdesk: Coping with two currencies in Cuba
Simon Calder
Simon Calder's career in travel started at Gatwick Airport, where he cleaned aircraft for Laker Airways and later worked as a security officer. He became The Independent's Travel Correspondent in 1994, and is known as "the Man Who Pays His Way" because he does not accept free travel facilities. He writes across the Independent titles, as well as for the Evening Standard.
Wednesday 06 March 2013
Q. My daughter is off to Cuba. Her worry is money. If the Cubans don't accept dollars, should she take pounds? And what is the best way of getting cash?
Name withheld
A Your daughter will become one of the relatively small number of British travellers to experience the beautiful chaos of the last bastion of communism in the West.
Cuba is a fabulous island, but with some annoying habits to contend with – such as its mad financial system. Jose Public uses the ordinary Cuban peso, for which the current rate is around 40 to £1. They used to be available mainly on the black market, but now they are exchanged legally at "Cadeca" kiosks – dotted around Havana and other Cuban cities. Travellers should always have a modest supply, say about £10 or £20 worth, in order to access items from pizza to city buses at locals' prices. But for most essentials – accommodation, long-distance transport, meals in decent cafes and restaurants – foreigners need the CUC. This is the "convertible peso", the island's home-made hard currency.
The CUC is a peculiarly Cuban device. While the US dollar is the international currency of choice just about everywhere in the Caribbean, for political reasons Cuba has created its own (which, right now, is worth almost exactly the same as the dollar, at about 1.50 to the £). You can't buy them abroad, so your daughter will need to change some upon arrival.
The best rates (ie where the "spread" between buying and selling rates is narrowest) are offered in exchange for the euro. It is probably not worth changing sterling into euros first, because you will lose a little on that transaction too. But a few low-denomination euro notes are useful, particularly in the back of beyond where locals will look askance at the Great British Fiver.
Besides cash, it is worth loading a pre-paid
currency card with some sterling or euros so that she can use ATMs – and you
have the parental privilege of topping up the balance from afar when it starts
to run short.
Finally, while Cuba is the safest place in the Caribbean, ask your daughter to take extra care of her possessions in Old Havana and the centre of Santiago.

Lovely apartment, great location. Despite being in the heart of the hustle and bustle of Toronto the apartment is very quiet. Tyler was a lovely host and very helpful. Was a little put off by the entrance/stairwell to the apartment, could do with a good vacuum. However the apartment was very clean and well equipped. We will definitely book with Tyler again. Thank you Tyler.
Tyler's apt is in the heart of Chinatown, right across from Kensington Market which is great if you wanna grab a coffee and people watch. His place is clean, charming, and he was super helpful on offering travel tips...highly recommend
Tyler kept the place clean and communicated well. I would rent to him again.

Classical requires a lot of patience. Here we will learn how to read music, finger picking, and theory.
It's not the stage, it's not the glory: it's the pure joy of playing music. We often put musicians on a pedestal: "this guy's better than I am, I'll never be that good." Here's a quote from one of the best guitarist of our time: "I dedicated all the time I had to it. The 10 hour workout was just what I put in the magazine at the time, but for me it was every waking moment." ~ Steve Vai To Steve, it was the music that gave him great joy. Simply put, he played because he loved it. This is my goal as a teacher: to show people that music takes time, it takes determination, it takes passion, and most importantly, it's really fun! It can be an expression of who you are. "The beautiful thing about learning is nobody can take it away from you." ~ B.B. King "Every time you pick up ...

College of DuPage Hosts 'A Continent of Ideas: Feb 17, 2015 6:05 PM
Psychedelics Empowering the Liberal Arts and Healing PTSD' on March 2 College of DuPage will host a free discussion, "A Continent of Ideas: Psychedelics Empowering the Liberal Arts and Healing PTSD," on Monday, March 2, from 5 to 8 p.m. in HSC 1234. This presentation is part of a continuing series of educational seminars open to the public through the COD Human Services department. During this program, Bruce Sewick LCPC, RDDP, CADC, will discuss the use of MDMA (known on the street "Ecstasy" or "Molly") with assisted psychotherapy as a treatment for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. "As someone who works with individuals with psychological problems, treating PTSD is extremely difficult," Sewick said. "People with PTSD are not able are not able to let go of the past or engage with the present, resulting in disproportionately high suicide rates. The research with MDMA is very promising, however, and there is now great hope for PTSD patients and continued research in the medicinal use of psychedelics. Slowly the paradigm is changing and psychedelic substances (many of which had a therapeutic beginning) are now being seen for their healing potential." This program will also include a presentation by Tom Roberts, Ph.D., who will discuss the use of psychedelics in intellectual and academic professions and as "psychoactive sacraments." "The study of psychedelics opens exciting doors for the humanities," Dr. Roberts said. "During this session, I will focus on psychedelics as a means for understanding literature, movies, works of art, the philosophy of science, the rhetoric of war, meaningfulness, spirituality, as well as larger intellectual topics such as inventing paradigms, formulating new theories and consilience." Bruce Sewick is the Manager of Adult Mental Health at Leyden Family Service in Franklin Park and has been an adjunct faculty member at College of DuPage since 2003. He currently teaches a Human Services electives course at COD titled, "Psychedelic Mindview," which explores the role of psychedelic substances throughout history, including recent clinical research for their use as adjuncts to psychotherapy and the influence of psychedelics in art, creativity and the political-social context of the 1960s. This course will be offered in a face to face, traditional class format during the summer term at COD, from June 10 to July 29. Starting in 1981 at Northern Illinois University, Prof. Roberts taught the world's first catalog-listed psychedelics course. His major publications are: The Psychedelic Policy Quaqmire (in-press 2015), The Psychedelic Future of the Mind (2013), Spiritual Growth with Entheogens (2012), Psychedelic Medicine, 2 vols. (2007) and Psychedelic Horizons (2006). Additional papers, reviews and web materials are located at: niu.academia.edu/ThomasRoberts.

The Birches hosts dementia educational series for caregivers Feb 17, 2015 6:07 PM
Every day more than 15 million Americans face the challenge of caring for a loved one with memory loss. To provide information and support to these caregivers, The Birches Assisted Living in Clarendon Hills is hosting a dementia educational series which will take place on the third Wednesday of the month from February until May. Each program in the series will run from 7 p.m. until 8:30 p.m. at The Birches Assisted Living, 215 55th St. Clarendon Hills. The series will kick off on February 18 with a presentation from psychotherapist and elder care specialist Sharon Boris, LCSW, MSW who will teach audience members how to recognize and cope with caregiver stress. In her presentation, Boris will provide tips for preventing the typical stressors a caregiver faces, as well as tools for managing stress once it hits. On March 18, the series will continue with a presentation from Steve Hiemenz, RPh, MBA, owner of Elm Plaza Pharmacy in Hinsdale, who will discuss how to recognize pain in those with dementia and how to implement a pain management intervention. Hiemenz will also discuss which medications are associated with higher fall risks and how to prevent such occurrences. On April 15, author and community educator Daniel Kuhn, MSW will teach caregivers how to cope with the emotional conflicts that arise while caring for a loved one with dementia.

Former COD Student Earns Prestigious Presidential Scholarship to Columbia College Feb 17, 2015 5:55 PM
Former College of DuPage student Mirjana Ursulesku is attending Chicago's prestigious Columbia College as the recipient of a Presidential Scholarship. The Columbia College Presidential Scholarship is a competitive, merit-based program that awards incoming and transfer students based on academic achievement and demonstration of significant accomplishment, talent or ability in their intended major. "I am thrilled and grateful to have been awarded this scholarship," said Ursulesku. "It has given me the chance to both deepen and expand my studies. It is also wonderful validation for me that I am on the right track with my career; I'm in the right place and moving in an exciting direction." In 2012, after years as a successful visual artist, Ursulesku enrolled in the Graphic Design program at College of DuPage. A mother of two young children, it was essential for her to find a place to continue her education that was close to home. "The Graphic Design program at COD was the first opportunity to integrate my fine art and illustration skills with graphic design," she said. "Taking my background and building on it was an exciting new chapter for me. I'm a person who thrives on new challenges and COD provided me with this opportunity." While at COD, Ursulesku discovered a particular interest in graphic design and brand identity work. "The inherent problem solving needed in graphic design and brand identity is exactly my cup of tea," she said. "With each project I attempt to meet the demands of the project, or a client's expectations, while using my own unique style and voice. Balancing my skills and my own story with what is required for the job, such as developing strong visual concepts and creating a message that engages and motivates the target audience is an exhilarating challenge." While a student at COD, she redesigned the College's Graphic Design website and earned her A.A.S. in Graphic Design, graduating with high honors. She is now attending classes at Columbia College where she is pursuing a double major, a B.F.A in Graphic Design and a B.A. in Advertising. Ursulesku has been immersed in drawing, painting and illustration from a very young age and works in a wide variety of approaches and mediums. The award-winning artist's work ranges from acrylic florals and photography to stark charcoals reflecting her experiences growing up in northern Bosnia. She also produces watercolors featuring an exploration of light and color. Drawing on a host of muses, she said her work has always been a labor of love and while she is inspired by the work of great masters, as well her peers, she is also inspired by nature, her surroundings and the creative process itself. "I am inspired by nature and by scenery that I think many people might simply overlook," she said. "A room, a figure, a field, a bird; I often stop to do quick studies of my surroundings, sketching or painting in an attempt to capture the raw essence of the view before me – the random gesture, the funny moment; life in general. I also am inspired by the harmony expressed when combining brushstroke and color, and by the experience of a painting taking on a life of its own and leading me where it wants to go." During her career, the Westmont resident has created works for art collectors, corporations and non-profit organizations worldwide. Her commissioned portfolio ranges from individual portraits to corporate work for well-known companies such as Life Focus TV and McDonald's Corporation, for which she created artwork that was used in McDonald's Supply Chain symposiums throughout the world. One of her favorite projects was completed for Opportunity International, a non-profit organization that provides micro loans to impoverished people throughout the world. In 2010, she was the recipient of the Hermes Gold Award, a creative awards program administered by the Association of Marketing and Communication Professionals. Ursulesku is the owner of Blue is My Color, Inc., a showcase for her commissioned and personal artwork, as well as Three Things I Love, a website through which she sells her work in the form of full-size prints, limited editions, original artworks and a wide range of her art imprinted on greeting cards, paper accessories, personalized cards and stationery. In addition, she runs M Creative Studios, Inc., an enterprise showcasing her graphic and web design, branding, identity and advertising services, and most recently, she established M Creative Press, Inc., a business dedicated to all forms and aspects of publishing. In summer of 2014, she self-published two books: "Life in Paint," which features her work over nearly 20 years, and "Idle Time," which includes a variety of sketches, ink and line work. Ursulesku said her goal is to continue her work as a creative professional, incorporating both her background in fine arts and her newly attained graphic design skills. she said her background in fine art has served her well as her career evolves toward more commercial art forms. "Good design is good design, whether it's a portrait done in oils or a great logo," she said "Each art form feels like an extension of the other and I don't find it difficult to balance the two; the relationship feels very natural to me." Ursulesku said that in addition to a top-notch curriculum and state-of-the-art technology, the COD Graphic Design program's dedicated instructors went the extra mile to help her succeed. "I had the greatest instructors and professors at COD," she said. "They were prepared, passionate and supportive. John Callegari was particularly exceptional. I cannot recall a more passionate and enthusiastic professor in any class I have ever taken. He is truly a credit to his profession." Professor of Graphic Design John Callegari said he was proud of Ursulesku's work and pleased with her success, which is due in no small part to her superb work ethic. "Mirjana sets the standard for how hard a student can work," he said. "She showed meticulous attention to detail and her work was conceptually perfect and flawlessly executed. The portfolio she produced while at COD is outstanding." While she continues to build her skills at Columbia College, Ursulesku said that she can't imagine a better place to have started her studies and career than at College of DuPage. "My work grew so much while at COD, and the knowledge I gained was priceless," she said. "I'm a firm believer in 'you get back what you put in,' so I worked hard, but my experience at the College far exceeded my expectations. I graduated with high honors and ended up with an extensive array of work and a portfolio that I'm very proud of." Click here for information about the Graphic Design program at College of DuPage.
College of DuPage Offers New American Welding Society Certificate Feb 17, 2015 5:56 PM
College of DuPage is offering a new American Welding Society Certificate that will provide students with the required skills to earn AWS credentials. Recently approved by the Illinois Community College Board, the 17 credit-hour certificate prepares students for entry-level positions as welders and fabricators. The Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts a 6 percent increase in overall metalworking positions during the next 10 years. "This new certificate program is another example of College of DuPage's dedication to providing students with solid program options," said COD Board of Trustees Chairman Erin Birt. "Over the last five years, COD has implemented nearly 70 new ICCB-approved certificates and degrees. The American Welding Society certificate provides students with industry recognized credentials that will jumpstart their careers." John Kronenburger, Associate Dean of Technology, said the certificate stemmed from an Illinois Network for Advanced Manufacturing grant, which was established to help provide highly skilled workers for industry, both in-state and nationally. Participating schools are asked to select and develop a specialty program. "We felt one area we could leverage was welding," he said. "College of DuPage already offers a Welding certificate, so we created a second certificate with industry-known credentials associated with it. To help us develop the curriculum, we brought in an AWS-certified instructor as a consultant." The American Welding Society Certificate includes five new courses designed to provide AWS Level 1 training. Upon completing the certificate, students can take the required test – offered at COD – to become AWS Sense 1-certified. Kronenburger said creating the AWS certificate is part of a larger effort to expand the College's Welding program that in the future will include an associate's degree. Students then can earn stackable credentials by starting with the AWS certificate, continue with the Welding certificate and then completing the degree. "There is a clear need for credentialed welders and fabricators in fields that range from aerospace to renewable energy to infrastructure, and we want to offer the training that will help students either begin or further their careers in a growing market."

College of DuPage Offers New Mechatronics Technology Certificate Feb 17, 2015 5:57 PM
College of DuPage is offering a new Mechatronics Technology certificate that will help students develop multidisciplinary skills in mechanics, electronics, industrial electronics and computer control. Recently approved by the Illinois Community College Board, the certificate was created to provide an entry-level credential that will help students apply for such positions as systems and automation technicians, maintenance technicians, automation specialists, human/machine interface programmers and controls specialists. "We worked with our INAM (Illinois Network for Advanced Manufacturing) committees to build this credential," said John Kronenburger, Associate Dean of Technology. "The new certificate provides basic training in a number of areas – circuits and electrical theory, mechanical theory, hydraulics, and controls." According to the National Council on Competitiveness, an estimated 100 million new jobs will be created this century that bridge disciplines rather than within individual disciplines. This will require new industry employees to understand how whole systems work as technology advances and be multitask-oriented. "Over the last five years, College of DuPage has established nearly 70 new ICCB-approved certificates and degree programs," said COD Board of Trustees Chairman Erin Birt. "Students are looking for a very strong return on their educational investment more than ever before, so it is critical that COD maintains a pulse on local and national in-demand careers such as Mechatronics." The 16 credit-hour certificate consists of one new class, "Electricity and Electronics for Mechatronics," and five existing courses. Students will receive a broad industry overview that will help them gain access to the workplace while providing a foundation for future education, Kronenburger said. "These classes are all stackable, which means the Mechatronics Technology Certificate can be a springboard to other certificates and associate's degrees within the electronics and electro-mechanical fields," he said. For more information, call (630) 942-8419, email firstname.lastname@example.com or visit www.cod.edu/programs/electronics.
COD Wins American Culinary Federation Illinois State Competition Feb 17, 2015 5:59 PM
Jan. 28, 2015 – College of DuPage culinary students took first place at the American Culinary Federation's (ACF) Student Team Hot Food Illinois State Competition. Five COD students competed against past national winners Joliet Junior College and Kendall College. The event included a skills salon, during which students are evaluated on skills such as butchery, filleting and knife cuts, followed by a cooking competition consisting of a four-course menu including one classical course assigned by the ACF and three dishes chosen by the team. COD team members Shin Balagtas (Glendale Heights), Frederick Estrada (Warrenville), Ashley Sabo (Naperville), Setrini Sison (Naperville) and Casey Waltemath (Elmhurst) practiced every Friday from 6:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. during the fall semester and throughout the holiday break. They will go on to compete against 12 teams from across the Midwest for the central divisional title this March in Arkansas. This is College of DuPage's second year hosting and third year competing.

Unidentified Body Found in North Carolina Has Streamwood Connection Feb 17, 2015 1:00 AM
The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children's Facebook site, Help ID Me, recently contacted Streamwood Behavioral Healthcare System to help spread the word to local resources in hopes that the young man might be identified. New technology helped to produce an image to show what the unidentified teenager may have looked like. Help give him back his name. John Doe is a Caucasian male between the ages of 15-20, who had short, light brown hair, stood five feet nine inches tall and weighed 171 pounds. He was wearing jeans, a blue plaid long-sleeved shirt, a brown jacket and sneakers. Investigators believe he was transient for some time prior to his death, and may have lost touch with relatives. They believe he spent time in Florida, Illinois and Tennessee before arriving in North Carolina. If you have any information, please call 1-800-THE-LOST.

Visiting a great restaurant isn't just about the food. It's about the place, the space, the lighting and so many other factors that go beyond the sense of taste.

Review: Little Social, 5 Pollen Street, London W1
Saturday 06 April 2013
I hate to start a rave review with a criticism, but 'Little Social' isn't a great name. The jog-trot phonemes suggest something pinched and underfed, like one of those Dickens urchins called Jo or Smike. You might as well call an eating-house 'Vaguely Jolly'. And it's easy to confuse with all its half-brothers in the vicinity.

Adam Simmonds, Danesfield House Hotel and Spa, Henley Road, Marlow-on-Thames, Bucks
Saturday 21 April 2012
Late-night visitors to Marlow have often been shocked by the chilling apparition of the Grey Lady of Danesfield Park, a solemn-faced ghost holding a lantern, who glides around where the chapel once stood, before disappearing. We had a broadly similar experience on driving into the hotel grounds – seeing the chilling apparition of Danesfield House, a great white whale of a late-Victorian Gothic folly looming in front of you like Moby Dick. It's an extraordinary sight, with its tall chimneys, its clock tower and elaborately terraced gardens, and it carries an air of melancholy – the result, perhaps, of too many owners, speculators and changes of use. It was built in 1899 by the heir to the Sunlight soap fortune, who sold it the moment it was finished. It housed evacuees in the war and was requisitioned by the RAF. It was once home to the Hellfire Club of Medmenham, a bunch of crazed desperadoes from the nearby village. Since 1991 it's been a hotel. And in the past four years, it's picked up a reputation as home to one of the country's finest chefs, Adam Simmonds.
