Poinsettias or Christmas star

Poinsettias or Christmas stars (Euphorbia pulcherrima) If like many people you have one indoors this Christmas perhaps a quick look at how to made them last would be helpful. It is written by our local Horticulturist Marc Vijverberg resident here in Spain. http://www.spain-info.co.uk/gardening/poinsettias.htm
PLUS Did you know that there is also a popular Christmas and New Years cocktail called Poinsettia? Try serving this cocktail during the holiday festivities – I guarantee you it will be a success.

ARE YOU A WINNER?

If you’d like to become a winner, you’re not alone. Winners are the icing on the cake of society, the cherry in the cocktail of life and overall just the coolest people on earth.
But what is a “winner”, actually? Is Bill Gates a winner? How about Mother Theresa? Or Gandhi? What about Vincent van Gogh, who hardly sold any paintings during his life time? Can you be declared a winner in retrospect? And who declares the winners in the first place?
Ah… hold on. I think we may finally have found the right question: Who declares the winners?
Is it God? Does he point his finger to draw a line between winners and losers? Or maybe it’s a highly regarded group of success gurus who make the decision? Do they publish a list of winners online? And do you have to buy their training course to earn your winner badge?
What about your friends? Surely, what they think of you must be right? But what if you find new friends who think differently?
The one with the right to judge you
Darn… this is getting complicated. We might actually have to stop asking questions and start facing the truth. You might have to accept the harsh reality that there’s only one single person who has all the power to decide whether you’re a winner or not. Someone who can determine your fate, who has the right to judge you and who can change your life with his or her thoughts alone.
It’s you, of course. Which really doesn’t make things any easier. I mean, what are you supposed to think of yourself? Who tells you what you should think? Is it God? Or maybe a group of highly regarded — ok, let’s not go through all that again.
The bottom line is this: It’s all on you. You’re the only one who gets to decide and nobody else has the power to “help” you with your decision.
By now, we realise that our starting question doesn’t quite fit. “Are you a winner?” isn’t really a question anyone can answer. Why don’t we replace it with “Do you feel like a winner?”. If you’re the only who gets a say in this anyway, then your feelings and thoughts are all that matters, aren’t they?
So, do you feel like a winner? I certainly do. Sometimes. At other times, I feel like a total failure: weak, vulnerable and helpless.
My guess is that you’re like me. I think that you try to think well of yourself, and often succeed — but not always.
How to feel like a winner
To help you feel like a winner more often, I’d like to show you a little exercise that has helped me personally a lot. In order to do so, I’ll build on the exercise that Douglas Cartwright has suggested for changing the way we look at problems.
Here’s what to do:
Step 1:
In writing, make a list of your successes in life. Start with your childhood. How you learned
to swim, or to ride a bike. Then work your way up to today. Your first kiss, your high-school
graduation. The first job. Your first promotion. You get the picture.
Steps 2 – 1,000,000:
From now on, every time you experience a new success, read through the whole list again. Then
add the new success to the list.
This activity shifts your thinking significantly. Instead of registering your successes as isolated events, your mind will start to interlink them.
As a result, you don’t just think “Wow, I’ve achieved a success” whenever you have a success-experience. Instead, you think “Wow, I’m a successful person” — a winner.

Marbella 4 Days Walking

Walking event will be CO2 Neutral

MARBELLA 4DAYS WALKING AND ARBORETUM MARBELLA SIGN COLLABORATION

MARBELLA. The organizers of Marbella 4Days Walking have signed a collaboration contract with Arboretum Marbella. They have agreed to unite their strengths in order to contribute to the environment and to ecological tourism in Marbella.

Marbella 4Days Walking (4Días Caminando) takes place from the 9th till the 12th of October. Hundreds of participants from different countries will participate and during 4 days they’ll walk a different route of 20 kilometers each day. The routes pass by the beach, through the city and nature. In order to preserve the nature around Marbella the organization has signed a contract with Arboretum Marbella which will allow the event to be CO2 neutral. To compensate the emissions caused by the event, the necessary amount of autochthonous trees and bushes will be planted on the lands of Arboretum.

The director from Arboretum, Alejandro Orioli: “We think it is wonderful that Marbella is focusing on sustainability. Promoting walking and tracking, like this event does, is another way of appreciating nature and the environment. At the same time that will make people more sensible to preserving it.” Hans Wohl, organizer of Marbella 4Days Walking is happy about the collaboration. “Parts of our routes go through the nature that can be found so near Marbella. Of course we would like to preserve this beauty, not only for the participants of all future editions of this event but because nature is essential to humans in general. We feel that the work done by Arboretum Marbella is important and that is why we’ve decided to help them where we can.” When participants subscribe they can choose to donate 5€ to Arboretum.

Double your money with Guarantee

Is Your Business /Pension Stalling?
After building a family run business both in UK and Spain, only to see it destroyed by incompetent governments and banks, I was at my wits end, reduced to scrabbling around for 'bits' of work.
I received a call from an old associate who told me I might want to consider a concept?
So, being sceptical of all things after what had happened, I did nothing for two months. One day curiosity got the better of me and I called. On 4th August this year 2011, I talked with an old friend Ian Driscoll, who explained the concept to me, which I must add went straight over my head.
But having no other long term source of income, I asked Ian 'what do I need to do, to double this money'? the rest is history, well one month of history so far! But I must say it is a totally ethical, honest, NEW way of income generation especially for us 50 something's or any somethings for that matter. I wish I had an insight to this earlier but hey!
I will replicate Ian's guarantee which he made to me to anyone who wants to follow my lead? That was to repay me 100% of any costs. I now have a residual income guaranteed. no hype no smoke and mirrors just a solid business concept which does what it says on the tin!!
Call me to find out more, absolutely down to you after that because you don't need to sell anything, recruit anyone, or be computer literate (I can manage if required) it's just amazingly 'too good to be true' but I thank whatever universal force that pointed me back to some old associates. sign in on this website for free and I will answer any questions you may have?

Revolutionary “Banners Broker” Concept

E - commerce is the fastest growing sector on the internet and web advertising is a multi Billion dollar industry.

There are millions of website owners who will pay commissions for attracting advertisers who will “rent” some of the space on their web pages. (Just like newspaper publishers pay ad agents)

Also, there are millions of people trying to sell their goods and services who would like to have their banner ads showing up on as many websites as possible.

“Banners Broker” (BB) is a new agency which finds and connects the banner advertisers (sellers of goods & services) with website owners (publishers who have “space to rent” on their sites).

The public now has the opportunity to trade in this global ad trading market by using BB’s broking services. There are huge profits to be made and BB will share them with you.

Anyone can become a trader by ordering a pack of banner ads through BB.

BB will then resell them for you to the publishers all over the world.

The publishers make their money from the advertisers - think Google ads!

This is somewhat like the ASX share trading with brokers buying and selling shares for you.

Because the internet market is so enormous and never ending, BB is able to “buy low and sell high” and guarantee to DOUBLE the money for their investors in relatively short periods.

So how do you become a trader? Simple, just order one of BB’s ad packs, priced from $20.

You will receive an inventory of banner ads from BB. BB will then automatically start selling them for you and earn you margins like never before !

‘Banner Broker” allows a person to participate in the world trade of banner ads with no risk.

*** Doubling of Money is Guaranteed for Every Customer. ***
Referral Website: http://www.bannersbroker.com/neale

BB operates a fully automated system with no personal selling or recruiting required.

This opportunity is perfect for people who seek passive income or have tried but not
been successful in any previous online business. For the first time in the history of trading, the broker undertakes to double your money.

YOU CAN NOT LOSE WITH THIS PROGRAM!
MY PERSONAL GUARANTEE 12th August 2011

If you are not content with your deal after 40 days, I will personally BUY BACK your ad package from you - for the price that you originally paid for it.
The refund money will be deposited directly to your nominated account within two working days. No questions will be asked and you will not have to give any reason whatsoever.
