This is fashion
Fashion has such a weight and it is so antique that Seneca, a roman philosopher of the 1st century AD, once said “We live not according to reason but according to fashion”. What he means is that fashion shapes society not reason, and this is very much true. There isn’t any reason when fashion is involved because if there were then fashion would be dictated by reason and then it would become fashion less. Fashion predates reason. It comes from within and it rises and it shapes the world like some uncontrollable force. Fashion comes from the unconscious. It has to do with beauty and not with reason. If fashion was dictated by reason then it would all look the same. If fashion was dictated by reason then no one would pay the high sums asked for a dress, for a pair of trousers, for a handbag. If fashion was dictated by reason then Miu Miu bags would bore and unoriginal, no one would buy them, no one would replicate them. A replica MIU would not exist because original Miu Miu bags wouldn’t inspire someone to replicate them and anyone to buy them. Fashion comes from the sheer force of creation, from the deepest realms of imagination. Fashion inspires, fashion makes people spend thousands of dollars on a handbag, something that for a reasonable mind sounds like insanity. Fashion inspires others who try to copy it. Like a Miu Miu handbag is created and then comes a replica MIU which is sold at lower prices in markets, in stores, in the internet. This is the cycle of fashion, it will never die and we live happy in it. This is fashion.
Johannesburg’s Preparations for FIFA World Cup 2010
For over a century, football has been the most popular and most widely played game in the city of Johannesburg. Due to this football craze of the locals, Johannesburg has been selected as one of the host cities for FIFA World Cup 2010. Apart from football, Johannesburg has been host to many epic matches of cricket and rugby as well. Thus Johannesburg flights comprise a major portion of the African air traffic. The stadiums that will be used during FIFA World Cup are:
Rand Stadium:
Rand stadium is the oldest stadium of Johannesburg and was built between 1949 and 1951. For many years, amateur matches were played here and the stadium could not be allocated for professional matches. An all-white football team had been founded in the city that turned professional and they wanted to hire the stadium as their club. However, they were not given permission for this as the stadium was set for only amateur matches. During the 1970s, the stadium was given a great revival which included upgraded changing rooms, VIP stands and more seating space. In 2006, Rand Stadium was completely demolished to allow a new stadium to be built in its place. The new Rand Stadium is a world class venue for football matches, capable of holding FIFA World Cup 2010 matches.
Orlando Stadium:
Orlando Stadium was constructed in 1959 in Johannesburg and was home to, much of the city’s events. These events included football matches as well as political rallies, gatherings and annual sports days of schools. Apart from football, Orlando Stadium was used for netball and volleyball and was home to the Premier Soccer League club, Moroka Swallos. In the year 2006, the stadium was completely demolished and rebuilt until mid of 2008 at a cost of 337 million rand. After the construction, the 24,000 seater has been upgraded into a 45,000 seater and has been equipped with all the modern amenities.
Ellis Park Stadium:
It has been found out that until the beginning of 20th century, the site of Ellis Park consisted of obsolete brickfields and reservoirs. Around 1908, the site was home to Johannesburg’s only swimming bath, a lake, tennis courts, playing fields and terraced promenades. It was in 1912 that the then mayor of the town set the site for the construction of a stadium. The stadium is named after the mayor, John Dowell Ellis. For many years, tennis and rugby were played here and in 1980s, the stadium was demolished to build another one, capable of holding rugby matches. The stadium has now been upgraded and turned into a world class venue capable of holding the matches for FIFA 2010.
Soccer City:
Soccer City is the largest stadium in Africa and can hold up to 80,000 spectators. Its architecture has been inspired from the African pot “Calabash” and is an extremely spectacular stadium. It looks way more beautiful when lit up at night. The stadium has been constructed keeping in mind the requirements of FIFA World Cup 2010. Venues like these are sure to make the FIFA matches exciting, thus flights to Johannesburg have been completely booked and the tickets to these matches, totally sold out.
Airlines around the globe are offering cheap flights to Johannesburg in order to accommodate the large influx of tourists into the city. This has made easier for soccer fans to grab their seats on board and enjoy the matches of the teams which they support.
Kazakhstan’s Economy
Kazakhstan has the largest economy in the entire Central Asian region due to its substantial oil, mineral and metal reserves. Foreign investors also play an important role in maintaining the country’s economic stability. Kazakhstan’s enormous land area also provides it a considerable potential for agricultural development. The country’s grassland plains can accommodate grain and livestock production.
Kazakhstan attained industrial production growth in 2009 by taking a few strategic steps. Over the past year, the country implemented around 22 investment projects worth $2.5 billion. Kazakhstan also launched its second energy transit corridor in 2009 in order to solve electricity problems in the country’s southern region.
The Kazakhstan president, Nursultan Nazarbayev, likewise adapted a strategic plan to achieve an impressive economic growth. The Kazakhstan OSCE government refinanced the loans of manufacturing companies by placing “Fund’s stress assets” in commercial banks. The country also managed to finance several investment projects in the fields of energy, engineering and pharmaceuticals.
In addition to this, the country’s government also plans to allot an additional 80.5 billion budget to create additional jobs, as well as to keep the 3,000 existing jobs. As for the country’s innovative and industrial development, a five-year state program has been implemented to enhance Kazakhstan’s economy.
In terms of Agriculture, Kazakhstan’s gross grain harvest for 2009 reached $23.1 tons, displaying a substantial increase of around 36% from the previous year (2008). Kazakhstan’s active development of an export infrastructure provides the country with an access to the largest sales market.
One of the main routes for Kazakhstan’s grain exports goes to China. For this reason, the country allocated a budget to initiate the construction of a railway grain terminal that is complete with a reloading capacity of up to a million tons.
Finally, the country’s investment prospects were virtually not affected by the recent global financial crisis. Kazakhstan’s total capital investment has remained stable since 2008.

Gran Canaria – The Paradise Island
If you are struggling to decide where you should go for your summer holiday this year, why not consider visiting one of the Canary Islands – specifically Gran Canaria.
This beautiful Island is a really popular holiday destination, especially for families and couples who want to go on a romantic break. There are many resorts to choose from on this Island including Playa Del Ingles, Maspalomas, San Augustin, and Puerto Mogan. The latter is the quietest and most relaxing of the resorts, while the other three attract a lot more tourists and have a vibrant night life. However they are all great places to stay during holidays to Gran Canaria.
During the day you can enjoy relaxing on one of the many beaches that stretch across the coast of this amazing Island. The weather in this part of the world is truly amazing, and Gran Canaria itself has over 300 days of sunshine. The water surrounding this Island is really clean and it sparkles in the sunlight. It is also home to some exotic sea life, you can get up close to this by going on a scuba dive. Alternatively if you are not too keen on diving you can explore the sea life via submarine.
If you intend to spend a lot of your time partying whilst on holiday then your best bet would be to go on an all inclusive to playa del ingles. This is possibly the liveliest resort on the Island, and it has several clubs. Combine that with the cheap booze on offer and you have the recipe for a great night out.
There are many shops in Gran Canaria, particularly souvenir shops. So there’s no excuse for you not to buy presents for the people you left at home!
As you can see Gran Canaria has the best of both worlds! It has clubs and pubs, but then it has the most amazing natural beauty!
A trip to the breathtaking city of Moscow.
All of my life I have wanted to go to Moscow, and finally this year I will be able to visit. It is somewhere with so much history and so much beauty – I have always wanted to see the beautiful Kremlin up close and that is one of the first things I will do on my trip.
I am also fascinated with everything that took place in the 60’s and 70’s during the space race between Russia and America, and I can’t wait to look into that in more detail. I found on the internet that you can actually take a tour to baikonur which will be absolutely amazing. I can’t wait to see how exciting that place will be!
As well as being fascinated by what Moscow offers on the ground, I am also excited to see what I can do in the air! I have decided to take to the skies during my trip and I am going to book a trip to fly mig of course with the aid of a pilot. I don’t of course get to fly the jet myself, but I will be inside it as we take to the skies and mypilot performs an array of airborne tricks and turns that are sure to leave me breathless!
While in Russia I also plan to see as much of the country as possible, and this will even include a trip to the north pole. I know that the north pole population is very low but I am not travelling there to see people! I want to see the barren wilderness that’s on offer, and Whatever I end up doing on my trip to Russia, I am sure it will be a memorable experience.
What to do in Limassol
Limassol has a population of 228,000 and is the second biggest city in Cyrpus. Located on Akrotiri Bay it offers lots to do for the holidaymaker. Here are some ‘must do’ things if you make to this incredible part of the world.
Limassol’s Beaches
Many people visit Limassol for the beaches, and rightly so! Ladies Mile Beach offers incredible sandy beaches with clear blue waters. Much of the same is delivered at Curium Beach, although the waters can be wild and wavy. However the beach is quite simply breathtaking. Pissouri Beach is another beach situated a little out of Limassol in the picturesque village of Pissouri.
Kykkos Monastery
In 1997 this monastery gained international attention when a statue known as the ‘Icon of the Virgin Mary’ wept for a whole month. Kykkos was the founded in 1092 by the Byzantines and is an incredible building in itself.
There are also many things to do outwith Limassol, but close enough for a day trip.
Kolossi Castle
Sitting just outside Limassol and is set amongst fields of vineyards. The castle was originally built in the 13th Century and when you cross the drawbridge to gain access, its medieval heritage is clearly apparent. Look above and you will see the spot where invaders were repelled by boiling oil being poured onto their heads. The castle was restored by the British in 1933 and keenly illustrates the struggles that Cyprus has had with invaders for centuries.
In the centre of Cyprus and within easy access of Limassol is Nicosia. The 1,000-year-old capital city is an essential stop for any visitor to Cyprus. Nicosia is the only divided city in Europe. The ‘Green line’ that divides the city into the Republic and the Turkish Northern Cyprus. Interestingly the only country that recognises Northern Cyprus is Turkey, whilst the rest of the international community recognises the Republic of Cyprus as the whole island. Quite apart from the political complexity the city offers many historical buildings and monuments; and the old walled city, built by the Venetians in the 16th Century, is incredible.
So if you’re just after the Sun and the Sand you won’t be disappointed on your cheap holidays to Limassol. But there are many other sites to be explored in this fascinating destination.
Great party venues in the UK
There are many party venues across the UK, but which to choose? Well, rather than go for your run-of-the-mill hotel, here are a few hand-picked places which are a little bit different to say the least.
If you want your party to be a real scream, then there’s nowhere better than Alton Towers Resort. The leading Midlands Conference Centre, it has something for everyone.

With such a wide choice, Alton Towers Resort can’t help but make any party a unique and memorable experience. For example, you can take over one of their themed hotels, have a exotic poolside party in their Water Park, or if you want a day that young and old alike can enjoy, then take advantage of their Corporate Family Fun Days.
Another venue which is a scream, albeit a different sort, is the Edinburgh Dungeon. From kids’ parties and hen dos to corporate events, this is sure to be one venue everyone will be dying to get to. Especially as it can combine real history, live actors and scary special effects to give an evening’s entertainment that is sure to be real hit.

Last and by no means least, there is SNO!Zone in Scotland, Castlefield and Milton Keynes. From children’s sledging to skiing parties, everyone can have fun in the snow, no matter what the weather outside. All you need to do is make sure everyone wraps up warm as they’re going to be on real snow. Everything else needed is supplied and they can even offer lederhosen if you want to take part in their Bavarian fun day. So, for a really cool party, grab your hat and scarf, and head for SNO!Zone.
Yacht Charter Turkey
For many adventure addicts, the prospect of staying put in a luxury hotel really doesn’t cut it. As decadent as it is to be entertained in opulent surroundings, the static nature of a hotel means that you can only see a certain part of a particular country or region. Nevertheless, where can you stay in luxury, but fully experience the atmosphere of your chosen holiday destination? Yacht charters offer the best of both worlds, as the most extravagant boats can be sailed from island to island, at your whim.
It doesn’t matter if you have had sailing experience before, as a fully crewed yacht can be hired, including a skipper, chef, housekeeping and scuba dive instructor. For a more intimate holiday, you can get a bareboat yacht charter, meaning that it is just you, your boat and any significant other that you would like to accompany you.
A variety of boats are on offer from traditional or classic types, to the latest in modern yachting design. As with style, yachts are readily available in a range of sizes, from boats to sleep four to large yachts to host 30 people – perfect for those grand corporate parties.
Once you have decided that sailing the open seas in a beautiful yacht is the perfect break for you, now is the time to contemplate where you would like to explore. Popular locations include the Caribbean, Italy, Greece and Turkey. The latter is becoming a hotspot for such holidays with a warm climate, cobalt seas and ancient cultural gems to explore by yacht charter. Turkey also offers colourful markets, tasty cuisine, quiet beaches and excellent shopping opportunities for those that enjoy variation in their holiday experience.
Away from the mainland, the shores off Turkey house an array of Mediterranean islands including Dalyan, Rhodes, Olu Deniz and Kalkan – ready for you to simply sail your luxury vessel across the Med to a destination of choice.
After a day of sightseeing, the beauty of a yacht is its comfort and privacy. Simply pour a drink and relax on deck before retiring to your luxury bedroom. Or if you feel like a quieter day, you can use the skills of that scuba dive instructor and enjoy taking in the plethora of sea life that the ocean has to offer.
