"I'm honored to join Jennifer Lopez and Claudia Leitte at the FIFA World Cup to bring the world together," says Pitbull. "I truly believe that this great game and the power of music will help unify us, because we are best when we are one."
"I grew up in a house that loved futbol, so I am thrilled to be performing at the World Cup Opening Ceremonies with Pitbull and Claudia Leitte," says Jennifer Lopez. "This is an amazing celebration of global unity, competition and the sport."
"I am very happy and thrilled to represent my country at the FIFA World Cup alongside these two amazing artists who I admire and respect. I love sharing my culture and country to people through music!" says Claudia Leitte. "The FIFA World Cup is one of the biggest events on the planet, and I look forward to dancing samba with Pitbull and Jennifer Lopez in Brazil - we are one!"
FIFA General Secretary Jerome Valcke said, "FIFA and Sony Music are extremely excited to share the impressive talent of Claudia Leitte with the world, alongside such internationally celebrated artists as Pitbull and Jennifer Lopez. In my many visits to this country I've seen and heard a lot about the great Brazilian music tradition and it gives me great pleasure to see a Brazilian artist at the heart of this song. I'm sure, like me, millions of football and music fans all over the world will be eagerly awaiting the song's release."
"We Are One (Ole Ola)" will debut later this year ahead of the 2014 FIFA World Cup™, and will be included on the upcoming "Official 2014 FIFA World Cup Album™" to be released by Sony Music Entertainment.
A video for "We Are One (Ole Ola)" is also in development and will be available in standard definition as well as in 4K.

The Atacama Desert is an adventure playground of geysers, moon valleys and salt lakes where at night the clear skies are littered with thousands of stars. Stretching 600 miles from Peru's southern border into northern Chile, the Atacama Desert rises from a thin coastal shelf to the pampas - virtually lifeless plains that dip down to river gorges layered with mineral sediments from the Andes. The pampas bevel up to the altiplano, the foothills of the Andes, where you will find Aymara and Atacama Indians herding their llamas and alpacas and growing crops with water from snowmelt streams.
At its centre, a place climatologists call absolute desert, the Atacama is known as the driest place on Earth. There are sterile, intimidating stretches where rain has never been recorded, at least as long as humans have measured it. Extraordinarily, more than a million people live in the Atacama today. They crowd into coastal cities, mining compounds, fishing villages, and oasis towns. International teams of astronomers-perched in observatories on the Atacama's coastal range-probe the cosmos through perfectly clear skies. Determined farmers in the far north grow olives, tomatoes, and cucumbers with drip-irrigation systems, culling scarce water from aquifers. In the altiplano, the descendants of the region's pre-Columbian natives (mostly Aymara and Atacama Indians) herd llamas and alpacas and grow crops with water from snowmelt streams.
The Atacama Desert makes the perfect contrast to the cooler climes, glaciers and glistening lakes of the south. It is a place in which you can indulge in spa treatments, hike, bike or horse-ride through the dramatic red landscapes, all from the comfort of a beautiful oasis hotel in the desert town of San Pedro de Atacama. It makes the perfect place to unwind after crossing from the high plains of Bolivia through the Uyuni Salt Flats. It is also a gateway into the pretty colonial towns and dramatic rock formations of Argentina's rugged North-West region via one of the most stunningly scenic drives across the Andes.

3200hp MONSTER Turbo Camaro!?!?
Did he just say 3,200 horsepower?! With a 622 cubic inch motor powered by TWO 98mm turbos, we'd believe it! Talk about managing power on an UN-PREPPED track!!! With a combination of driving skills, and proper tuning, this 3rd Gen Camaro has a MONSTROUS power plant under the hood and the car & driver are about as consistent as it gets for pushing up to 3,200hp, but we're guessing it was turned down quite a bit for this no prep race. Even the championship race looked like a first round elimination!! We loved filming this car and hearing the deafening 98mm turbos spool seconds before the front wheels took flght! Congrats to the driver and crew and best wishes to them at future grudge races! ------------------------------------ 1320Video Gear ► http://www.1320video.com/shop/ Facebook ► http://facebook.com/1320videos Instagram ► https://instagram.com/1320video/ Twitter ► https://twitter.com/1320video Submit your video to us ►http://goo.gl/forms/TbQPwl9qFq

Young: GOP's 17.2 percent solution
April 10, 2014
As of mid-March, the nation's rate of uninsured had declined to 15.9 percent from 17.1 percent in December.
We can't know exactly where the rate stands now, but it's lower. And, well, the nation's Republican leaders will not have that.
They will do everything they can — and credit them for having done everything they could — to get us back to the good old 17.1 percent days.
Seventeen point one, of course, won't be good enough. We can trust that the GOP partisans cannot — will not — rest until the nation's uninsured rate is at least a percent of a percent higher than that.
Yes, the 17.2 percent solution.
Hear the call to arms: We must reverse the reversal of the uninsured rate by any means.
We went to the Supreme Court appeal for that. We succeeded in part by relieving states of having to treat all working poor equally under the Affordable Care Act's expansion of Medicaid.
We shut down the government to stop something that had been the law of the land for four years. Admittedly, the only thing that accomplished was to highlight Sen. Ted Cruz's penchant for children's literature, but our cause was just.
We must not, cannot, have government making it possible that more Americans have health coverage this year than last.
Granted, we will feign outrage that in the process, some Americans had their policies canceled. (Privately, we will do the Snoopy dance in celebration.) Granted, because of the ACA, all of those people have an option to be covered still.
We still like the good old 17.1 percent days better. Back then, when one had one's insurance policy canceled, one's options were squat. And we liked it.
That's why 17.2 percent is our goal, because less is more when it comes to the annoying needs of the uninsured.
Don't believe this? Set aside the desert mission to blow up the ACA. Look at the budget proposed in Congress by Rep. Paul Ryan.
If his proposal were to become law, dramatic cuts would hit Medicaid and subsidies to help Americans buy health insurance — $2.7 billion over 10 years. Presto — fewer insured Americans tomorrow than today. Now, that's sweet music. Sing it, Sen. Cruz.
Now, you might think of Medicaid as just a gravy train for the undeserving. Apparently you have not studied the creature you curse.
The biggest chunk of dollars Medicaid disburses — nearly two thirds; look it up — isn't for "welfare moms." It's for grannies and granddads in nursing homes.
It's tough love, you might say, but the pain someone else's elders suffer would be worth it to get things back to what they once were, back in the 17.1 percent days.
Speaking of health care, we've heard a lot from ACA's sworn enemies about how it stole billions from Medicare. (Factcheck.org says there's a big difference between "stealing" and saving billions of dollars. In fact, it says the savings built into the ACA will prolong the life span of the Medicare trust fund.)
Well, if the foes of ACA are the protectors of Medicare they pretend to be, then they should be alarmed by the Ryan proposal, also trotted out in the 2012 election, to block-grant Medicare. The Center on Budget and Policy Priorities at the time said that the long-term restrictions built into that proposal would cost seniors an average of $6,000 a year in out-of-pocket expenses.
All of this represents a longing for a return to things as they were, when seniors didn't depend so heavily on the government. Those were the same halcyon days when a national health insurance program for the working poor was a silly dream.
Don't rest, GOP, until we not only are back to the the 17.1 percent sweetness of yesteryear (2013), but a percent of a percent more.

Michele Bachmann Wishes Elvis 'Happy Birthday' On His Death Anniversary
Michele Bachmann flubbed Elvis Presley's birthday today at a rally in Spartanburg, SC. Today is the 34th anniversary of his death. Bachmann must have confused Elvis with another pop icon whose birthday is actually today: Madonna. But would she actually wish Madonna a 'Happy Birthday' as a campaign gimmick?

Dianne's place is so cozy and comfortable! It was perfect for my teenaged son and me -- I got the cozy bedroom, and he enjoyed the sofa bed in the spacious living room area. We were excited to find the gift of fresh snickerdoodles, which we enjoyed sitting in comfy rocking chairs outside, enjoying the view. The place is immaculate; it is stocked with coffee, tea, and fixin's; and there is even a piano! It was also just the right price for my budget when I needed a convenient place to stay one night in Edgewood. I learned the next day that it is within a stone's throw of a myriad of hiking & biking trails in a beautiful area of New Mexico which we had never before explored. Dianne was a gracious host who was very helpful in her communications prior to our stay.Mara2016-10-23T00:00:00Z
100% recommendAshley 2017-03-16T00:00:00Z
Dianne went above and beyond for us! We were traveling with 3 adults and two children. She had activities bag for the kids when we arrived that they loved and homemade cookies that were delicious! The beds were all very comfortable. There is a private entrance to the lower level and a wagon was in the driveway for our bags when we got there. Great experience!Ericka2017-03-30T00:00:00Z
Dianne was a wonderful hostess! She went beyond her duties when it came to icy and snowy conditions. Her place was so comfortable and quiet and the view was amazing! She had everything I could possibly ask for and may have forgotten to pack. Communication skills were excellent --I never felt lost. Huge thanks to Dianne and her husband for taking care of my boys and me! I would definitely stay there again.Cynthia2016-12-23T00:00:00Z
Diane and Kevin's please warm inviting and comfortable. Check in with easy or welcoming. It's a great place to stay I would recommend is to anyone traveling.Whitney C2017-04-30T00:00:00Z
Everything was great and we wish we could have stayed longer!R2017-04-25T00:00:00Z
Dianne was a fabulous host. The hours is cozy and quaint and matched the pictures perfectly. She was very flexible with check-in and check-out and even greeted us with cookies! Our stay was extremely comfortable and enjoyable and I would definitely recommend staying here. Thanks for being so great, Dianne!Kaleena2016-10-09T00:00:00Z
Dianne and Kevin are excellent, responsive hosts. The room in their lovely home is clean, secure, and comfortable. And, as an unexpected treat, Dianne is an incredible baker! I really appreciated the mini kitchen in the family room and the luxurious towels and shower. All in all, a serene and relaxing experience.debra2016-11-16T00:00:00Z

Anita showed us to the place and provided breakfast in the morning. She was very nice and location was ideal for visiting a friend who lived in the same city.Yun2016-10-09T00:00:00Z
The hosts were very helpful on the phone when we needed to get there coming from southern back roads. The breakfast was amazing, and the area is very quiet, with just bird song to be heard in the morning - including chickens and guinea fowl.Catherine2016-10-10T00:00:00Z
This was a great stay at Duane and Anita's place. They were very accommodating in that I had a late arrival and they worked around my schedule. Great place and I will look to stay here again when I travel through the area.Carter2017-04-22T00:00:00Z
This was a wonderful place to spend a night! It is a really nice, cozy little house, and they made us a wonderful breakfast in the morning. We stopped here for a night while on a road trip. It's maybe 10-15 minutes from I 40. (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) maps doesn't give directions right to their door, but Duane sent us really clear instructions, and we had no problem finding them. Overall, communication was great. Duane even agreed to host us after we asked at the last minute.Jenya2016-12-06T00:00:00Z
Great countryside stay. Very helpful and communicative hosts that provided home cooked Zucchini bread, fruits and coffee for breakfast. Place was clean and peaceful and a great place to experience the New Mexico countryside.Nate2016-10-02T00:00:00Z
Expect a wonderful breakfast every morning!Sam2017-04-29T00:00:00Z
Duane and his wife Anita were lovely hosts! They were communicative and did everything to make my visit perfect. Anita made breakfast that was absolutely delicious with eggs from their free-range chickens and fruits and veggies from their garden. Their property is very quiet -- I didn't hear a peep in the morning from the roosters near by! One note to visitors: this location is out in the country (off a dirt road) and my cell-phone reception was spotty. I didn't mind, though, because the location was peaceful and away from the hustle and bustle of life. This is a GREAT place to stay if you don't mind being un-connected for a day or two :)Robin2016-09-14T00:00:00Z

Derek was a perfect host. The house is in a quiet neighborhood. The room was comfortable. The shower had hot water and the air conditioning system kept me comfortable all night. But more than the physical aspects, Derek was helpful, friendly, interesting and he even invited me to join him for dinner when I arrived. He has more hobbles (interests) than anyone who I have met in years... everything from Astronomy to Zymurgy. He is professional, yet down to earth. I would stay at his home again in the future and he would be welcome in my home as well.Bob2016-08-03T00:00:00Z
Derek is a stellar host. He is extremely friendly, accommodating, and great at communicating. His place is in a beautiful and restful area, and is only a half an hour or so from Albuquerque, making it easy to enjoy both the amenities of the city and the tranquility of Derek's part of town. I would definitely recommended staying here and will be sure to visit again if ever in the area!Alex2016-10-09T00:00:00Z
Great host in a very beautiful home - made us dinner the first night and made sure that we were comfortable for the evening. Derek is a great guy! Highly recommend staying here if passing through Albuquerque.Amos2016-07-04T00:00:00Z
Place is awesome! How his price isn't double what he listed it as will forever baffle me. The room was nice and the host is awesome.Blake2016-07-12T00:00:00Z
Derek was really welcoming to his home. He made sushi and we hung out for a bit. The room was very private and comfortableNicolas2016-08-14T00:00:00Z
The area was really quiet and pleasant. Derek is great! Such a nice person. Great to converse with. :) It's about a 30 minute drive to Albuquerque, but if you'd like some peace and quiet, Edgewood is really nice.Rachel2016-09-07T00:00:00Z

Carol was incredibly helpful, responsive, and patient as this was my first airbnb reservation. She made the reservation process easy and answered all my questions. She greeted us upon arrival, showed us around the yurt and provided an overview of the property and area. Their property is gorgeous and the yurt is very warm and welcoming, just like our host. Jeff and I thank you for a wonderful stay. Our experience visiting the balloon fiesta was equally as magical as our night sitting under the stars in your backyard. Thank you.Heidi2016-10-07T00:00:00Z
We LOVED staying in this comfortable and beautiful yurt. During our visit the last two weeks of December, we saw snow, ice, and sleet, yet stayed toasty and warm. The yurt is set in beautiful New Mexican scenery. There are gorgeous walks on the property. Views of the mountains are abundant. The location is great with easy access to the Turquoise Trails, Sandia slopes and Albuquerque. We lacked for nothing. Carol and Robert were gracious and very kind hosts. We are most grateful. This was a great choice for us, and we hope to return.Beth2016-12-30T00:00:00Z
Lovely place for a weekend, welcoming hosts, great location for wandering about New Mexico!Katie2017-02-19T00:00:00Z
The yurt was a welcomed retreat from Houston city life - from all the stars in the sky at night, to waking up and having a hot cup of tea on the porch while watching the horses and taking in the scenery. The yurt has all the amenities you need. Great wifi connection. No need for a tv when you have the scenery around you to enjoy. The walking path in the forest on the property was great, loved all the arrows so you can find your way back easily. It is located on beautiful acreage less than 20 minutes from restaurants, grocery store, Walgreens, etc. So you feel far away from everything, but just a short drive away from town if you need something. Carol was such a wonderful host! Greeted us upon arrival with a smile, advice, and recommendations. She was excellent with communication prior to and during our stay. We couldn't have asked for a better host! And friendly pups Jack and Chloe made our stay even more memorable! We will be sure to return some day. Thank you again, Carol!!Sarah2016-10-04T00:00:00Z
The yurt was a quiet and peaceful retreat. Close enough to the city to not feel too remote, yet far enough away to unplug. We would definitely stay again!Leeann2017-03-19T00:00:00Z
Absolutely wonderful place and hosts. Easy to work from. I will return.Gary2017-04-28T00:00:00Z
Carol and Bob are great hosts and although we didn't have time to meet with them I could tell they are both very lovely and very interesting people. This is our 2nd time using Airbnb and didn't know what to expect staying in a yurt. We were pleasantly surprised. The location is very private but yet close to everything. The yurt was very comfortable and had everything we needed. The dogs and horses are extremely friendly. I would definitely recommend staying at this location.Andrew2016-12-16T00:00:00Z

Lona's place was very quiet and secluded and comfortable. Lona was very friendly and hospitable and even made me a muffin for breakfast in the morning. Double check the incorrect directions from Apple against the correct ones she sends you though and save yourself the 30 minute dirt road drive.Jonathon2017-03-15T00:00:00Z
We had a brief but excellent stay here - their home is up on the top of a small mountain on a dirt road (you do not need 4wd but if your car has a low clearance this may not be your cup of tea). The guest house is built up on top of their house up a hill a bit and while attached to the house, maintains a very private feel. The space is very well equipped, cozy, and clean. The internet works well. The hosts were a pleasure to meet, kind, and generous. Their dogs, Seidi and Zoe were awesome, and Seidi kept us company when we sat outside at night. We know they are just starting out as hosts and as hosts ourselves we can kind of tell that they very much have the right idea in hosting, and their place is a gem that is worth checking out!Sam and Lek2017-04-01T00:00:00Z
Lona and Adam are excellent hosts and the guest house is just as described. I came here with my dog Charli and he agrees with me 100% He had a great time running around and exploring the property with Lona's two friendly dogs. I would recommend to anyone with a pet wanting to get out of the city, looking for a quiet mountain retreat.Melanie2017-04-30T00:00:00Z
Fabulous place! Loved our, sadly, brief stay. The room is cozy and has anything you could want. The weather took an unexpected turn and we ended our drive in the snow. Lona was great in checking in with us and had our room cozy warm when we arrived. Her pups are awesome and gave my city dog a chance at playing as a country dog. We even got a doggy visit in the evening and again in the AM to say good-morning. Snow was scraped off the windshield for our drive down the mountain. Much appreciated.dawn2017-03-24T00:00:00Z

This is a beautiful hidden guesthouse to stay in. Magical land and animals. I unfortunately never got to meet Mel but Karl was great and welcoming. I highly recommend a stay.martha2016-03-12T00:00:00Z
We were very comfortable here! Mel booked us last minute for a quick getaway & it was just what we needed for a relaxing night away. Decorated so cute!Tahnee & Conor2016-09-03T00:00:00Z
The guest house was squeaky clean. Mel and Justyn welcomed us even though we arrived rather late at night. Went above and beyond to accommodate us. Everything about the guest house is intentionally charming and welcoming. The location is incredible. I felt like I was in a fairy tale. Off course the chickens, the doggies and most of all the horses played a very important part in it. I cannot wait to go back! Mel drew us a map and pinpoited the things we should do in the area. ( places to visit, restaurants to dine, things to do) . We loved it, but my fav part was just to hang out there at the guest house. (well, besides riding Cisco:) )Elena2016-08-07T00:00:00Z
Beautiful setting, rustic cowboy theme (barn doors for bathroom and closet, shower/bathtub replicates a water trough and bucket with holes in the bottom). Beds are comfy and cozy, as is the common room,with old-timey touches, like a Frigidaire refrigerator, complemented by modern conveniences (like the cutting-edge Keurig for coffee). The many rescued animals on the property (horses and dogs) are friendly, and there's a nice fire pit and spacious hot tub. However, don't do as we did and plug the address into your GPS, or you'll find yourself up the side of a mountain on a deserted rocky road impassable to all without 4 Wheel Drive; fortunately our host's daughter, Justyne rescued us (which would not have been necessary had we simply followed the clear directions on their Airbnb page). Hard to believe this quiet, remote, rustic space is just minutes off I-40.Stephen2016-11-14T00:00:00Z
Mel and Juss were excellent hosts, friendly and welcoming. Their communication was excellent, the guest cottage 100% clean and charming, and they waited dinner for us the evening we arrived, which included a glass of wine, homemade bread and a delicious beans, squash and corn dinner. They gave us a tour of their property and we met their horses, got to observe Juss working with a new rescue horse, and were accompanied by their wonderfully social and happy group of rescue dogs on our walks. This stay was a highlight of our cross-country trip. We felt totally welcome and totally spoiled being there, and can't wait to go back!Krista2015-01-27T00:00:00Z
Mel met us with a friendly greeting; showed us the apartment; and gave us a friendly tour of all facilities, including visiting the rescue horses. The large studio was beautifully remodeled and furnished with 2 new and very comfortable beds, a refrigerator, coffee, and the slight challenge of a composting toilet. The "cowgirl" decor is perfect for equine vacationers. The recommended local restaurant, just 3 or 4 miles away, was great for dinner & breakfast. Great location for visiting Albuquerque for those of us who enjoy privacy and the great outdoors. Thanks, Jennifer & charlieJennifer2015-07-30T00:00:00Z

Wonderful facilities in a quiet location with a beautiful courtyard. Luxurious high thread count bedding, fluffy towels complimentary water in the room. The jetted tub was absolutely wonderful and there was enough hot water to fill it! Karen made sure we had everything we needed. The snacks were great as we were hiking all day. This is a beautiful place for a small event.Mickey2017-04-09T00:00:00Z

Shirley's place is immaculate! She provided the best private accommodations we have ever experienced. We were especially impressed by their spacious rooms with a private bath in each room. The decor is impressive and the hospitality second to none. Shirley and Joe are in the process of reviving an 80 acre horse facility and have done an incredible job thus far. You can just visualize the finished product to be a horse paradise. Both Shirley and Joe are extremely friendly and accommodating. If you aren't happy here, you won't be happy anywhere.Connie2017-05-07T00:00:00Z

We all arrived to a beautiful rural home in a spectacular setting. It was exactly what our family was hoping for. Plenty of indoor space for us and with lots of outdoor space for the dogs. This place has a wonderful kitchen with everything one would need, three comfy bedrooms with a spare room for extra sleeping and gathering. The house is primarily heated by a pellet stove. Guests that stay in the winter need to be able to lift a 40 lb. bag to fill stove. Felt like a real fireplace. Arthur communicated well prior and during our stay and provided a whole house manual. We would certainly stay there again. Thanks Arthur.Kalah2015-12-31T00:00:00Z

We had an amazing stay with Mel and Justyn, so much so that we booked another night. We had the barn house, hot tub and pool to ourselves and the setting is very tranquil. All the animals were really friendly and we are going to miss them all. Karl was on site throughout our stay and was really chatty and helpful. Thank you for making our break in the forest a memorable and relaxing stay. We can't wait to come back! :)Mike2016-09-14T00:00:00Z
My partner and I fell in love with this place. The house is very clean and comfortable. Mel was great and very accommodating even with our late arrival.

The hosts were very warm and welcoming, especially with my very curious, very talkative, 6 year old. There were times I turned around for just a second, and next thing I knew, she was in the kitchen talking with the hosts, and they were extremely gracious about it. I hope she entertained them at least as much as they entertained her. This was my daughter's first time on a farm, and the hosts were good enough to show us around. My daughter loved seeing the animals, and the hosts children were very kind and knowlegable about their farm, so me and my daughter learned many new things on this trip. The hosts were more than accomadating. It was very pleasant out there. Peaceful and quiet. Far enough away from the city where you don't have any of the noise or lights, but not so far where if you were here any significant amount of time that you could not go into the city to find something to do. However, if you want to distance yourself from the city but are worried about necessities, you could go weeks without ever setting foot in Albuquerque as Edgewood is has a small and thriving town that has all the basics that you would ever need. Overall, my weekend was delightful, my daughter had a blast, and I would not hesitate for a minute to request a booking with them with her, or even the rest of my family, again.Scott2016-10-09T00:00:00Z

Robbie and Gregory were wonderfully accommodating, and I was very comfortable in their guest house. The bed was THE most comfortable I've slept in during a weeks-long business trip and sitting in that rocker on the front patio in the sun was such a needed relaxing morning with coffee. The guest house is, as described, very quiet and very private. Thank you!CARLY2016-10-17T00:00:00Z
The casita was a nice place to stay along our route. I wish we would've had more time to enjoy the beautiful surroundings! I very much appreciated the extra touch of having a washer/dryer and iron. Though I didn't wash any clothes on this trip, that is a luxury that isn't often present in Airbnbs!Ashley2016-10-10T00:00:00Z
Very cool area, tucked away but still close to the highway.Graham2016-11-24T00:00:00Z
Robbie and Gregory have done a terrific job with their casita. We unfortunately did not meet them since we were just passing through on our way to Austin. We were in late, and out early. The casita is a clean, cozy, and beautifully decorated. My wife and and I thought the bed was incredibly comfortable and the nature surrounding the casita was beautiful. We would love to return and spend some time enjoying the casita and the grounds around it. This is the sort of place you would enjoy sitting outside with a glass of wine enjoying the views and the peaceful environment. I would highly recommend!Dan2016-08-17T00:00:00Z
Gregory is great, I went to the area for bicycle race and I wish I spent more time in the casita. Its a super cute casita and so is the area. Next time I visit Albuquerque I will definitely rent this place again.Carlos2016-04-05T00:00:00Z

Our stay in Tijeras was everything we expected an more. The home worked great for the 10 of us who stayed there. The location was beautiful...up in the mountains just outside of Albuquerque, but close enough to be convenient. The kitchen was stocked with all the supplies we needed. We were surprised to find a variety of breakfast items waiting when we arrived. The house is an older home, but very clean and comfortable. Paul was very accommodating with our late arrival. His communication was excellent, timely, and friendly. I would definitely recommend the "Paradise in the Pines" to anyone.Rex2016-08-28T00:00:00Z

Paul's Cottage was perfect for our roadtrip. We were just driving thru from Texas and decided to make a stop for the Albuquerque Balloon Feista and needed a place last minute. We had to check in really late (after midnight) too and Paul didn't mind at all. The drive up and down from the mountains were amazing beautiful too. Thank you for the nice stay!Loan2016-10-07T00:00:00Z
We had a WONDERFUL time at Paradise in the Pines! There was plenty of room for our large family of seven. The house was clean, the beds were comfortable, our kids had a lot of fun with the toys and games. Paul was always more than willing to help out and got back to us quickly with any questions we had. We liked the fact that it was in quiet peaceful area, but still close enough to go into Albuquerque daily. Our children really enjoyed being outdoors (especially the playground). We definitely recommend this house to anyone looking for lovely place near Albuquerque.Chad2016-10-21T00:00:00Z
Pauls hospitality was outstanding. Once we arrived and saw the house it was spectacular. He brought us extra towels and there was even ice cream in the freezer. The house overall was amazingTai2016-08-07T00:00:00Z

Paradise in the Pines was a nice get away for us. Two families shared it comfortably. The half bath was a bit more rustic than the full, but we managed. Paul was welcoming & friendly.

This is a beautiful retreat not too far from Albuquerque or Santa Fe for day trips. We loved the hot tub and the secluded feel. It was so comfortable and the hosts were very easy to work with it! We hope to be able to visit again and have already recommended to a friend!Amy2016-09-18T00:00:00Z
My family, 2 teen boys and our 16 month old puppy had a wonderful stay. We relaxed in the hot tub, played horseopoly and visited the horses and dogs. Stars and views were amazing!Christy2016-08-28T00:00:00Z
So the property on it's own is a total treat, with beautiful views, peace,a comfortable bedroom and living room, and the wonderful quiet background sounds of horses and chickens. What made this experience above and beyond, was Mel's openness and welcoming and warmth. She took us on a dreamy and unforgettable dayride with the horses. Her 6 dogs were so sweet, and my dog fit right in with the pack. Looking forward to staying there again, hopefully very soon.Dorrito2017-04-12T00:00:00Z

Mel's home was so serene! We loved how unique it was when we opened the doors. The property is beautiful and the views from the balcony are awesome. Mel and Justyn are super friendly and incredibly sweet! It was kind how they checked in with us throughout our travel there, being extra helpful with directions and accommodating our late arrival even. We were a long way from home, missing our doggies and adored being able to pet their very friendly dog pack! This is a great spot for a private and secluded getaway!Khaliha2017-04-20T00:00:00Z

Super cute (wonderfully decorated with tasteful antiques), large house. Everything was awesome! Gregory suggested a walk for the morning, and us and the pups really enjoyed it! The wireless music and network worked flawlessly and made the evening sitting on the front porch super excellent. Would definitely stay here again!Roxane2017-03-23T00:00:00Z
The hosts are a gem! If you're looking for a wonderful, relaxing and incredible place to stay, this is it! Highly recommend. Don't pass it up if you have a chance to book it. The location and walking paths are exceptional.Johanna2017-03-24T00:00:00Z
Pulled up to be greeted by Gregory and had a comprehensive tour of the house and overview of the property., which is lovely. The home is spacious and wonderfully appointed...and better than advertised. It would make a great writer's getaway or spot for a family reunion, especially when you incorporate the other properties onsite to keep your family close - but not too close. I can't say enough nice things about the property and Robbie/Gregory (who are as hands on/off as you'd like) but if you cook - you'll love the kitchen - and the shower is a wonderful treat after a hike in the trails nearby.James2016-11-07T00:00:00Z
A charming little home with comfort and character. Check in was very simple, plenty of privacy, and very unique decor both inside and out. A special little place where people from all over can share in the beauty of Tijeras!Cassidy2017-04-23T00:00:00Z
They welcomed us to the house as we checked in and showed us around to learn how everything worked, which was great, and made our stay more enjoyable. Their house is located in a quiet community close to many trails and daytime activities, so we kept busy and it felt great to come home to such a cozy house. The beds were extremely comfy, the shower is amazing, and it was a true pleasure working in their spacious kitchen.David2017-01-05T00:00:00Z
Our stay in Tijeras was a home away from home! Robbie was a great host, and they are just next door if you need anything, though the house is also very private. The pictures don't do the house justice-- it is so cozy and delightful that we hardly wanted to leave. It is also very close to Albuquerque for some exploring. Would definitely recommend, such a great deal and would absolutely return!Elissa2017-01-01T00:00:00Z
If you are looking for an absolutely beautiful, peaceful, relaxing place in and around ABQ, you must choose Brinkley House. You will not be disappointed. From the kitchen to the master bedroom to the stunning bathroom, I can only sum it up in one word.....sanctuary!! The pictures do not do the home justice!! Go see for yourself and enjoy the beauty of the home and the surrounding property. We have stayed with Robbie and Gregory in the past and will continue to choose Brinkley House in the future!!!Sara2016-10-15T00:00:00Z
What a treat! Such a dreamy little home! We only wish we could have stayed longer! We will absolutely be coming back!David2017-03-14T00:00:00Z

Corazon Productions: A Chicano Collective | KCET
Corazon Productions: A Chicano Collective
Beginning in the mid 1970s, a small number of Chicano artists, writers, intellectuals, and organizations began moving from East Los Angeles into Highland Park. Among those who made the move were muralist Carlos Almaraz and his girlfriend Patricia Parra. Their rented house on Aldama Street in Highland Park became an active artist commune at which many Chicano artists would gather for varied cultural and political activities. Soon Almaraz and Parra, along with Guillermo Bejarano, a student at the People's College of Law, banded together with other artists and students to buy the house, in the process forming a collective that would become known as Corazon Productions. Among the artists who participated in this community were Frank Romero, Gilbert 'Magu' Lujan, Beto de la Rocha and Judithe Hernandez of Los Four, Wayne Healy and George Yepes of the East Los Streetscapers, ASCO's Gronk, Leo Limon, and John Valadez.
Much of the activism of the early days of the Chicano Movement in the late 1960s into the early 1970s was driven by leftist political ideologies and agendas. Socialism, Communism, the national liberation struggles in Africa, Asia and Latin America, and the Farm Worker Labor Movement led by César Chávez informed the visions of Chicano activists and artists. Chávez in particular became the first nationally recognized Chicano leader, his image becoming a recurring motif in early Chicano murals along with Che Guevara, Emiliano Zapata, and iconographic symbols referencing revolutionary, land-based, and agrarian struggles in Latin America, Mexico and the American Southwest/Aztlan. Many Chicano artists went a step further and became directly involved with the United Farm Workers, putting their artistry to work in the service of the farm worker's struggles. Both Carlos Almaraz and Barbara Carrasco, who later participated in Highland Park's Centro de Art Publico, worked closely with César Chávez producing murals and banners for the union.
