Many visitors come to Goa in India for its wonderful beaches, incredible cuisine, and historic sites. Markets, shops, five star Goa hotels, and restaurants stand side-by-side with historic temples and churches reflecting the multi-cultural heritage of this smallest Indian state. A major tourist destination, Goa attracts millions of visitors every year and many come to experience Carnival as only Goa can throw it.
Introduced to Goa five hundred years ago by the Portuguese who colonialized the area, Carnival is a tradition that has roots in ancient Roman and Greek festivals. Derived from “Carnavale,” a Latin word meaining “to throw away meat,” Carnival is a three-day indulgence of feasting, dancing, and general merriment before the start of the season of Lent. It usually begins on Fat Saturday (Sabado Gordo) and continues through Fat Tuesday or “Shrove Tuesday” which is the day before Ash Wednesday.
Goa is the only place in India that celebrates Carnival, and the entire state comes alive with the annual festival every February. While Carnival is technically a Christian festival, people of all religions enjoy the three day celebration. The festivities begin with an order from King Momo for the people to party and a colorful parade featuring floats and costumed revelers dancing and singing to live music.
Throughout Carnival, the buildings and streets of Goa are decorated with ribbons, papers, and streamers. Villages and cities hold parades, street plays,concerts, street dances, and grand balls. Feasting, drinking, and singing begin early in the morning and continue throughout each day. Feni is plentiful and people greet each other for four nights and three days with a cry of “Viva Carnaval!”

Ibiza is a magnet for tourists drawn to its famed nightlife and gorgeous beaches. The island is one of the Spanish Balearic Islands and is ideally situated in the Mediterranean Sea to offer a perfect mixture of sand, sea, and sun. Visitors to the island will be happy to learn that the food on Ibiza is equally appealing. The many Ibiza restaurants and pubs offer a range of Spanish and world dishes to suit most tastes and pocketbooks. And pretty much any restaurant within easy distance of the coast is going to offer some of the island’s delicious seafood.
Most traditional foods on the island contain seafood or fish. Many dishes include fish in rice dishes (as the main ingredient) or as guisat (stew with potatoes). Another popular presentation is grilled fish. With easy access to the ocean, many restaurants offer their seafood in live tanks, so diners are assured of the freshest catch.
One of the more common fish dishes on Ibiza is burrida de ratjada. This is ray cooked with almonds. Coques are square pastries filled with fish or seafood (and sometimes chopped vegetables or other meat, such as pork). Another typical dish is bullit, a boiled fish and rice dish that you eat backwards: fish first, then rice. The island also offers popular fish dishes such as bull d’anfos (vegetables with grouper entrails), bonito casserole with capers and fennel, and anglerfish casserole. Zarzuela is a fish stew that is widely available while ordering parrillada de pescado will get you a selection of various grilled fish.
The most popular seafood available on Ibiza is local lobster, served with squid or by itself. Other seafood to enjoy on the island include crabs, prawns, and octopus. Guisat de marisc is a “hotpot” of delicious seafood and fish. Other seafood dishes to try include Merluza, Bacalao, Mero, emperador, and Rodaballo.

Most westerners still refer to the city as Calcutta, but Kolkata became the official name of India’s second largest city in 2001. This capital of West Bengal is an important military and commerical port but is also well known for as the intellectual and cultural capital of India. Believed by many to be the birthplace of modern literary and artistic thought in India, the city is proud of its philosophers, poets, artists, and writers, some of whom have earned Nobel Prizes for their work. Kolkata also offers gorgeous architecture, incredible food, great shopping, and many opportunities to soak in the arts, culture, and performing arts of the Bengali people.
When India gained independence from Great Britian in 1947, it began a slow restructuring of the various administrative and political states. As this reorganization has proceded, many of the cities and states within India have undergone name changes. In the last decade, most of the country’s largest cities have changed their name to reflect local language and population rather than the colonial names.
Both names, Kolkata and Calcutta, originated from Kalikata which was one of three villages in the area before the British arrived. Kalikata is itself a version of kalikshetra which means “Land of Kali” who is an important Hindu goddess. Others argue that the name derived from kilkila, which is a Bengali word meaning “flat area.” Another possibility is that the name is a combination of the words for “natural canal” (khal) and “dug” (katta). While some western media continue to use the name Calcutta, locals have always used the Kolkata pronounciation instead of the angelized version.
Visitors to Kolkata will enjoy a one-of-a-kind experience as they explore the city’s culture, food, and various attractions. There are a variety of lodgings available in the city, including a number of luxurious five star Kolkata hotels. And don’t forget to experience the incredible Bengali cuisine available everywhere from street vendors to world-class restaurants.

Kuala Lumpur, the capital of Malaysia, is affectionately known as “KL” by locals and tourists alike. What began as a quiet tin-mining Chinese village has grown into a thriving modern city of over a million and a half people. This city is known for its bargains, whether its food, shopping, or accomomodations, travlers get their money’s worth — even the 5 star hotels in Kuala Lumpur are a bargain.
Once you’re settled in this vibrant, multicultural city, there is plenty to do. Some of the more popular attractions include Kuala Lumpur Tower, the House of Parliament, and the Putra World Trade Centre. Dataran Merdeka or Independence Square is where Malaysia declared its independence from Great Britian in August 1957. Don’t forget to take in the Petronas Twin Towers. Once the largest building in the world, this structure holds the designation as the world’s tallest twin towers. The individual towers are the 2nd and 3rd tallest singular towers.
Kuala Lumpur is home to a variety of places of worship. Mosques such as the Masjid Negara, the Masjid Jamek, and the Federal Territory Mosque are popular destinations as are the Thean Hou Temple and the Sri Mahamariamman Temple. Museums to see include the Muzium Negara, the Islamic Arts Museum, the National Museum, the National Science Centre and the National Art Gallery of Malaysia. And don’t miss the Aquaria KLCC, home to thousands of species of tropical fish and the Zoo Negara.
Some visitors time their visit to cooincide with one of the many festivals and celebrations held throughout the year. The largest Thaipusam procession in the world begins at the Sri Mahamariamman Temple and makes it way to the Batu Caves just outside the city. Other events include the Malaysia International Gourmet Festival, the Chinese cultural festivals held at Thean Hou Temple, and the Hindu festival of Pongal.

Phuket is the largest island in Thailand. Formerly known as Tha-Laang, Talang, or Junk Ceylon, the island is roughly the same size as Singapore. 860 kilometers south of Bangkok, Phuket is located in the Andaman Sea and enjoys balmy weather and numerous beaches. Many of the Five star hotels Phuket are beach resort featuring amazing ocean views and a wide range of water sports and activities. There is also world-class dining featuring both local and international cuisine.
Once on a major trade route between China and India, Phuket was built on economies of tin and rubber and has a colorful and rich history. Today, the economy relies on tourism for much of its wealth. Phuket is connected to the Thai mainland by a bridge and is the most popular of the Thai islands. The island sustained severe damage in the December 2004 tsunami, but has recovered quickly to the point where it is difficult to see any indication of the damage today.
Phuket hosts a diverse population of Buddhists, Muslims, Thai-Chinese, Europeans, and Malay. This variety yields acalendar teeming with cultural and religious festivals throughout the year. Some of these festivals include the Thao Thepkrasattri and Thao Sisunthon Fair, the Seafood Festival, and the Chao Le (Sea Gypsy) Boat Floating Festival.
The island’s most important is the Phuket Vegetarian Festival held over nine days during the Chinese ninth lunar month. The focus of the festival is purification of the body and soul through ceremonies such as firewalking, body piercing, and following the vegetarian diet. These acts are also believed to bring good fortune to the community as well as to the individuals participating.

In the midst of an economic downturn, it’s hard to rationalize pursuing ambitious goals. In fact, being surrounded by such financial depression, I can’t help but think that my goals are lofty dreams without any possibility in reality. For example, ever since I was a kid, I have imagined owning my own pet shop. The thought of helping sweet, lovable animals find homes with nurturing families is an image that’s been planted in my head for as long as I can remember. But are these visions really just ways for me to cope in my uneventful and uninspiring real life? Is my imagination taking me away from productive time spent in reality? I want to put my dreams into action, but I’m stuck wondering if they’re merely dreams without potential.
I found Liberty League International, a recognized self improvement company with a lot of members, and did a little research on the validity of my seemingly far-fetched hopes. The development company offers people the tools and training necessary to experience success in all areas of life. Focused on combating self-limiting behaviors, Liberty League helps you to realize your full potential and recognize the boundless opportunities at your fingertips.
Their flagship product is Beyond Freedom, a traning kit with loads of information about ways in which you can adjust negative behaviors and thought patterns, and in turn open yourself up to new opportunities and experiences. The idea behind this product really resonates with me. Liberty League stands behind the philosophy that you can make the changes in your life that you dream about.
I don’t want to believe that my dreams are just short-lived fantasies or manifestations of deeper feelings of inadequacy — that’s just negative self-talk driven by society. Today, it’s outside the norm to go after big goals; staying within the lines of popular culture and doing what’s “expected” of you take precedance to following dreams. But the people that are the most successful in life are always the ones who take risks and don’t let anything stop them from accomplishing their goals. So maybe my hopes for a quaint corner pet shop might take some time to materialize, the satisfaction I’ll gain for forging my path to realizing my dreams will be well worth it in the end.

Integrity is a complex idea that has various interpretations. One measure of an individual’s integrity is the ability to which he or she can maximize their own potential and utilize strengths as a mechanism for personal growth. That is the message that Liberty League International delivers as a personal development leader.
Beyond Freedom is a product developed by Liberty League that teaches individuals how to put hopes and dreams into action. Following goals will lead to a fulfilling life and supreme personal satisfaction.
The Liberty League Conference gathers people with a common goal: To be the person they aspire to be. The conference is held at a gorgeous location and is led by speakers hand picked by the creators of Beyond Freedom. It’s a weekend full of gaining personal development wisdom.
Above is a picture from a recent conference, depicting the joy and exuberance participants felt when unlocking the key to personal freedom.
Integrity can mean different things to different people, and it can be hard to demonstrate when it feels like the world’s surrounded you with roadblocks. But in the end, it is about releasing the best possible version of you to the world and overcoming obstacles with the personal freedom you’ve achieved.

There are many great tools and gear available today to add to a truck. Some of them look like a good investment others look like they are just designed for additional aesthetic appeal. In any case, you do have options when it comes to truck accessories. When you take the time to invest in a high quality truck accessory, you want to be sure it is the right item for you. For example, if you have a Nissan Frontier, you want to choose accessories that will work well with that truck to complete the look and function of it.
A good place to start is with a truck rack, assuming you have a need for it. Choose a rack that works well with the type of truck that you have, specifically. You may also want to invest in truck bed covers. These fit nicely over the top of your bed, giving anything you put inside of it protection from the elements. It also provides you with a bit of privacy.
Look at how you will use the truck, what you would like to have and the long term value of adding that accessory to the vehicle. You have plenty of options to select from and each offers a different benefit to you.

Wheel and tire packages are a great way to increase the value of your car or truck without spending a fortune. In fact, most people prefer packages because it make choosing simple. And increasing the value of your automobile is well worth it.
Personally, I wait until I see rims for sale and then I go out and compare. A lot of the tire and rim companies have their sales around the same time so I wait until then and then I spend a couple of afternoons shopping until I find just what I want.
Tire and wheel packages take the guesswork out of the decision and it will save you time. Your car or truck will look nicer and you will have invested wisely.

I love interior decorating. If I could go back to school, I would get my degree in interior decorating. Helping someone choose the right decor is very rewarding. I enjoy it even when our personal tastes differ.
For window blinds, I always have the people I help get them from Next Day Blinds. They are very well trained and knowledgeable in what they do. Next Day Blinds will even do in-home consultations for you. I also like the fact that they are switching their fleet of vehicles out for hybrids.
But what I enjoy best of all is decorating my house. I can pick exactly what I want and cultivate a certain aesthetic appeal. I choose colors that I love and the right accent pillows and accessories.

Today marks the 50th Anniversary of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). Over the past fifty years, NASA has brought America beautiful images of our planetary neighbors and distant, far off galaxies. Looking at the stars has been a popular pastime for generations, and it’s unlikely that our fascination with space will die out any time soon. After all, even just this summer audiences flocked to see the latest Pixar film, Wall-E, about robots and space ships soaring amongst the stars.
Bringing the solar system fun home or to the classroom is easier than ever, thanks to the NASA images website. The project is a massive collection of pictures from the universe, our solar system and the planets therein, the beautiful planet Earth, and our brave astronauts. Best of all, these space pictures can be used for free.
According to the NASA imagery and photo guidelines, “still images, audio files and video generally are not copyrighted. You may use NASA imagery, video and audio material for educational or informational purposes, including photo collections, textbooks, public exhibits and Internet Web pages.” If you’re looking for something to add some sparkle to your scrapbook or a little zest to your blog pages, why not use an image of the sun or some pictures of an eclipse? The possibilities really are endless, so don’t let this great resource go to waste.
Note: Just a reminder that the blue NASA logo isn’t free to use. They guard the copyright to their logo very closely. I used to intern for a company that had a partnership with NASA, and I vividly remember how strict they would be on the placement of their insignia and who could and could not publish it. Please be respectful and don’t don the NASA insignia or logo on anything without their permission.

A stressed economy had no power to stop The Dark Knight from beating box office records over the weekend. Nationwide, theater showings were sold out, making ticket sales hot on eBay.
Among the most highly sought after tickets were those for IMAX screenings. The Hollywood movie directed by Christopher Nolan is the first of its kind to incorporate scenes shot with an actual IMAX camera, living up to its “IMAX Experience” publicity. Consumers bought into it and flocked to see the film in IMAX like never before, breaking the IMAX theater records, as well. Reuters reports that the Dark Knight lit up IMAX Corporation share prices by over 23 percent. It’s no surprise investors are feeling positive about the company’s contribution to the summer’s hottest movie weekend. According to the article, “The $158.4 million opening for the latest Batman sequel featured $6.2 million from just 94 Imax screens, or a mind-numbing $67,000 per venue.” Those are numbers even Bruce Wayne wouldn’t scoff at.
While success like this will be difficult to duplicate, all eyes will be on the box office and IMAX this November, as Warner Bros. unveils another box office breaker – the sixth Harry Potter movie.

I love the summertime and I love it because it’s tennis season. The French Open was disappointing though because Nadal won again, no shock there. I like it better when it’s undecided. I knew Nadal was going to win but I hoped Federer would.
Roger Federer has been ranked number one for a really long time and he only lacks the French Open title to complete his career Grand Slam.

Working on cars is something that most men like doing and most know how to do at least some repair work. I love taking old cars and rebuilding the engine and fixing them up to be beautiful.
I got custom rims for the ‘66 Mustang that I just restored. Those chrome wheels will look so shiny and make her seem like she’s driving even smoother than she already is.

I love the whole “going green” movement. So many companies are doing what they can and changing the way they have always done things to help stop global warming. Next Day Blinds is one of the companies that I am referring to.
They have announced that they are transitioning most of the vehicle fleet to hybrid vehicles. Of course it will take a few years but they already are off to a great start. In fact, I saw Next Day Blinds ads and they custom blinds they were showing were being delivered in a hybrid.
So, this company is going green from the inside and when you purchase blinds, you not only save money on your heating and cooling cost, but you are protecting the environment by using fewer resources.

Working to help someone else accomplish his or her dreams is something that most of us do without even realizing it. We get up and go to work just to make enough to live off of. In reality, we are working for the owners of the companies we work for to make their dreams come true.
I was tired of doing this so I got involved with the Liberty League International system. Their personal development program changed my life. By applying the Liberty League Int program, I made small changes in my habits and in turn, made my life an incredible amount better.
The Liberty League video on YouTube shows people just like me that got involved with this amazing program and how it changed their lives. It will work for you, as it worked for me.

There are several new trends in the world of beauty these days. Getting permanent makeup eyebrows is one of the hottest and fastest growing trends. It saves time and money for the lucky woman that get this done and she looks great when she wakes up, gets out of the shower, goes swimming or works up a sweat.
And the permanent make up that they can do besides eyebrows is amazing. You can have blush permanent on your cheeks. You can also have your eyeliner done. Think of the hassle that you will no longer have to go through each day. You’ll wake up looking refreshed and put together.
And with the supplies for permanent makeup only getting better with time, the results will only get better.

The coverage of the Grand Slam events is usually great. If I miss an important match, I end up catching the highlights on the evening news. But last year my son was home from college and he messed up the French Open highlights for me.
My Sooner son thought it would be funny to put in a tape of Roger Federer winning another tournament and make it look like he was winning on the French Open news.
I just about died because I really wanted Roger to win and the last I had heard, he wasn’t doing too well in that tournament. My son sure thought that it was funny to see me so excited that Roger was winning the French Open. In fact he videotaped it and is planning on putting it on the Internet.

I went to the Museum of Natural History and I found the entire experience to be quite cathartic. I felt as if I walked back into history and could actually imagine how life was in a different time. It really was so beautiful.
After that experience, I decided that I had to design my encounter with history because too often one doesn’t know she is living in a period that will be studied for generations to come.
I pulled out several maps and thought about which places I would like to go to make myself be a part of everything going on. Obviously I had a map of United States. With the election this year, I, along with everyone else, am witnessing history.
I also got my map of Russia because Vladimir Putin stepped down as President and is now Prime Minister. I think that Russia is only going to get stronger and become a real force once again.
And I got out several Texas maps. I know that the state of Texas does not seem to historically significant right now but with the polygamy cases going on right now, I think that what happens there will affect all of us and our rights.
Overall, my experience at the Natural History Museum was great. And I learned a lot of the past, present and where I think the future of history is.

Often times, when people think about what "telecommunications" means, they think about those phone calls that interrupt them. However, when people in California think of that word, they think of Arthur Trueger.
Arthur Trueger is the chairman of Berkeley International. He is a venture capitalist who invests in the telecommunications field. This is why many people think of him.
He is also very much a part of the Japan Society of Northern California. He must love the Japanese culture because he is currently learning his fourth language, Japanese.

Going to so many car shows throughout the years has taught me many different things about cars. For instance, red cars get more tickets for speeding than any other color. This is just an example of the little tidbits of knowledge that you pick up.
Also, people are loyal to their Dub wheels, Toyo tire, and any other tire company there is around.
But what I think is most interesting is the color choice of those that enter in the show. Some choose unusual colors like pink or yellow and others choose wild colors like purple with glitter.
Each car is different and each owner is unique so I guess that through the years I’ve learned more about life than cars.

I am updating my house but I don’t have a very large budget. One of the inexpensive things that I found can really make a dramatic change is a new rug. I bought three modern area rugs. They all have different patterns too.
I love, love, love my area rugs. They make me really enjoy my house. I also painted the walls and I painted my old icky looking end tables. They look new and the walls look great too.
I decided to work on my patio a little bit and I bought an outdoor rug. It seemed to pull my living room out the door and added another onto my house.
March 27th, 2008
I love history. In my home office I have several books on different wars and I have maps for the areas that were affected by those wars. I think that knowing what caused a war in the past is a great way of preventing them in the future.
I have several European maps with notes on battles that took place in World War II. I’ve also been to Austria and Germany and I have photos of battlefields. On my wall are several maps of Germany.
I have never been to Japan but I have a couple of Japan maps marked where the United States dropped the atomic bombs on them. I feel like if I know about this part of history then I can do my part to prevent it from happening again.

Summer is getting closer! Its time to determine all the activities and fun stuff I am going to do now that the weather is improving. Its nice to have that feeling of anticipation after a long winter cooped up inside. I’m planning to do and see a lot of fun things this year.One thing I will be doing is attending a lot of events and concerts.
I will be looking for tickets - theater tickets, concert tickets and sports tickets. I’m also planning to do quite a bit of traveling around the country. The good thing about this is that I will be able to attend quite a few shows during my travels. I will take along my laptop and order my tickets online. It will make life a lot easier. As well as enjoying sports events and other types of shows I am planning to do some hiking, enjoy some water sports, do some sight seeing and enjoy my share of great food and drinks. This is shaping up to be a fun summer!
March 18th, 2008
I love spending the summer driving around the country. My favorite part is cruising on Route 66. I take it from Chicago through Oklahoma to California.
I always stop at as many car shows as I can find. I usually daydream about owning one of the model cars but now that I have custom wheels and and light truck tires, I feel like I’m entered in the shows.
My black chrome wheels look like they cost an outrageous amount of money but I found a great deal.
All of the car shows better start expecting me since I cruise around the United States every spring.
