Design
I
am a decorator and have been designing luxury homes and offices for nearly 12 years. I also design spaces for children and adults in the Autistic Spectrum, ADHD, Aspergers, Dyslexia and other sensory challenges. As the mother of twin girls, I had always been intrigued by each of my daughter’s “unique emotional blueprints,” and how their environment altered their development and behavior. One of my daughters has sensory issues. She is sensitive to certain colors, sounds, surfaces and smells. She has taught me a lot about a persons sensory needs. I began incorporating these elements into my client’s spaces, specifically the ones with sensory and developmental issues. I call it “Design with Direction.” When approaching the design of a space for a child or adult with Autism, think about your goals for the room. Every child is different including a child with Autism. Consider safety first. Reconsider items that have cords or strings, breakable mirrors etc. Furniture, especially larger, heavier pieces should be anchored to walls.” The best design of a room is a space that addresses the child’s specific arousal level. Do they need a stimulating or calming environment? This will enable them to have the security to learn and function.” Consider the following: 1. Bean bags, floor cushions, small tents for cocooning, rocking chairs, tunnels and swings are wonderful additions to the space. 2. Smell is the strongest sense in our body. It appears that children with Autism have a keen sense of smell. Use organic aromatherapy in the space to calm or stimulate. 3. White noise, such as the sound of a whirring fan, could sound like nails on a chalkboard to a child with Autism. Incorporate calming nature sounds such as waterfalls, the ocean, rain and birds chirping. 4. Studies have shown that children with Autism see the color red as fluorescent and appear calmer in pink and soft blue surroundings. Select paint colors that are relaxing and toxin free. 5. Research suggests that children with Autism might visually process their surrounding differently which

space for a Child or Adult with
Sensory Kids Room
could alter how they spatially interpret a room. Keep the space as clean and as clutter free as possible. 6. Add multisensory toys and products such as microphones, koosh balls and slinky’s to the space. Consider items that address gross and fine motor skill function and objects for pushing, pulling, rolling and hugging. Incorporate visually stimulating products such as clocks, wind chimes, crystals and toy fish tanks. 7. Select soft, diffused lighting. Choose ceiling fixtures that are covered with frosted glass, table lamps that don’t give off harsh light, and don’t forget outlet covers. 8. Many children with challenges are drawn to animals. Hang wall coverings and art that portray happy images and artwork of baby animals. 9. Many children with Autism appear to react painfully to light touch or tickling. Use blankets that are heavy and enveloping 10. Furnishings should be low to the ground. In place of a traditional desk and chair, consider a small coffee table with big pillows to sit on or a lap buddy. 11. In order for the child to learn while at play, store small toys and items in clear bins with labels and graphics to match. 12. Secure a cork board to the wall for family photos and child’s art. Change the artwork frequently. Use putty in place of thumbtacks. 13. Transitioning, or going from one task to the next can be challenging for a child with Autism. So, hang a transition chart to guide them. 14. Regardless of the child’s age, treat the space as if it’s being designed for a young child, assuring safety and unexpected dangers. Consider an upholstered, low platform bed and a snug mattress, preferably organic. Within all of us lies the ability to tune in or tune out sensory information. However for a child with Autism, this is a constant challenge; one that creates a state of imbalance. It is fundamental for all children to first trust their environment so that they can explore it, interact with it, learn from it and thrive.” Deborah Rosenberg of www.DiMareDesign.com and www.Ddigz.com can be reached at info@ DiMareDesign.com or 786-629-9581.
M
ost of us have experienced what I refer to as “the square peg in a round hole” moment. It’s that uncomfortable feeling we get when we are completely out of sync with our surroundings or the people around us. To a person with Autism, this is not a temporary situation. Autism is a neurological disorder that impairs a person’s ability to communicate and relate to others. It’s associated with rigid routines and repetitive behavior. One in 45 children in this country alone are diagnosed with Autism and no cure has yet been found. Our fastpaced world is a constant struggle for this population. They have difficulty expressing their discomfort, which leads to tremendous frustration. In order to thrive and grow to their full potential, children with Autism, as do all of us, need to feel in control in an environment that is comforting and nonthreatening.

¿Sabían ustedes que en la antigua Roma, el color del cabello de una mujer indicaba su clase o jerarquía? Las mujeres de la nobleza se teñían el cabello de rojo, las de clase media de rubio y las pobres eran obligadas a teñirse de color negro. Hoy en día no es tan diferente, en nuestro contexto cultural occidental, el cuidado del cabello habla de la forma como las personas piensan, sienten y conciben el mundo, es el espejo a través del cual proyectamos nuestra realidad y hasta la forma como nos sentimos con nosotras mismas. Las mujeres invierten una buena parte de su tiempo y dinero en salones de belleza, tratamientos y consultas a especialistas sobre cuál es la mejor manera de cuidarlo y conservarlo. Desde la antigüedad, las mujeres hemos utilizado diferentes aceites naturales; el aceite extraído del coco maduro tiene propiedades que sirven para controlar la caída del cabello, dar brillo y acabar la caspa. Este producto puede brindar sorpresas agradables si se usa como acondicionador o remedio natural para mantener la salud del cabello. Se aplica normalmente por vía tópica estimulando el folículo piloso, la mejor manera de aplicarlo es después de la ducha cuando el cabello todavía está húmedo. Se toma en pequeñas cantidades en la palma de la mano, aproximadamente (1/2 cucharita) para el pelo largo, o un poco menos si es corto, se frota ligeramente con los dedos aceitosos para distribuirlo de manera uniforme. El resultado será realmente maravilloso.

Are you considering CoolSculpting
.What is CoolSculpting and How does it work?
CoolSculpting is a non-invasive, clinically proven procedure to selectively reduce stubborn fat using a patented cooling technology. It is a safe procedure cleared by the FDA that gently cools unwanted fat cells in the body to induce a natural, controlled elimination of fat cells. This reduces fat in treated areas of the body without harming surrounding tissues.
2. Who is the ideal candidate for CoolSculpting? It’s for men and women. CoolSculpting is not intended as a weight-reduction program for overweight individuals. The best candidates for CoolSculpting are people at or near their ideal body weight who eat well and exercise regularly and have stubborn fat that does not respond to a healthy lifestyle. They are seeking fat reduction but are not considering surgical procedure. With a customized treatment plan, patients can achieve dramatic results with this non-surgical procedure.
3. What type of results can one expect?
Patients who get CoolSculpting done can expect to see a noticeable reduction of fat in the treated area, an average of 20-23%. And the treated fat cells are gone for good. If patients maintain a healthy lifestyle, the results of their procedure are long lasting and durable.
4. How much does it cost?
The cost depends on the physician and the individual patient’s CoolSculpting procedure plan; however, the range is approximately $700-$1,500 for each treated area.
5. What does exactly happen to the fat cells in the body and how do they go away?
During the CoolSculpting procedure, a non-invasive applicator delivers precisely controlled cooling to the treatment area to specifically target underlying fat, leaving surface skin and other surrounding tissue unaffected. When fat cells are exposed to extreme cold, a process of
for Stubborn Fat?
natural cell death is triggered and dead cells are naturally removed, which gradually reduces the thickness of the fat layer. The result is a noticeable and measurable reduction of fat in the treated area.
6. How is this different than liposuction?
The results of a CoolSculpting treatment are not as rapid as invasive procedures such as liposuction. However, if you want to avoid the pain during treatment, risk and recovery time associated with surgical procedures like liposuction, CoolSculpting may be the preferred option.
7. What are the risks?
There is very minimal risk due to the non-invasive nature of CoolSculpting. After the procedure some patients experience redness, tingling, minor bruising or numbers in the treated areas, but this is temporary. No pain medication is required during treatment. Results and patient experiences may vary.
8. What does CoolSculpting feel like? How long does it take?
When the applicator is first applied to the skin, it feels a little like a “tugging” sensation and you start to feel the cold. Each area treated takes approximately one hour. Additional treatments in the same or multiple areas may help enhance the desired aesthetic effect.
9. What is the downtime?
CoolSculpting involves no needles or surgery resulting in no downtime. Since the CoolSculpting procedure is non-surgical, patients typically resume daily activities, including work and exercise, immediately following treatment.
10. How long does it take and how long does it last? Each CoolSculpting procedure lasts one to two hours. A
patient’s customized treatment plan determines exactly how many treatments are needed to achieve the desired result. Following the procedure, if patients maintain a healthy lifestyle through eating and exercise, the results of the procedures are long lasting and durable.
11. Does the weight come right back on?
Actually, to clarify…CoolSculpting is not a weight loss procedure. Patients do not lose weight and that should not be an expectation. They reduce fat bulges/pockets in certain areas on their body which, from what patients have told us, results in their clothes fitting much better, they look better or go down in clothing size. Following the CoolSculpting treatment, if patients maintain a healthy lifestyle through eating and exercise, the results of the procedure are long lasting and durable.
12. Would you use this on yourself?
Yes, absolutely. CoolSculpting is the solution for those of us who simply want to look better and have stubborn fat that does not go away no matter how much we diet and exercise. In addition, the popularity of non-invasive procedures continues to grow year after year, which is why I offer CoolSculpting in my practice.

The Facts about...
BOTOX “The Good, the Bad & the Ugly”
Avoiding unsatisfactory results
By: Neeta Mitroo, MD J B Mitroo, MIE
W
hat is it? To most of us, it is either a “magical” treatment for our worrisome wrinkles, or it is “nightmare come true”. It all depends what results you get on your face. The medical name for Botox Cosmetic is onabotulinumtoxinA. It is a prescription medicine that is injected into muscles and used to improve the look of moderate to severe frown lines (wrinkles) between the eyebrows (glabellar lines) in people 18 to 65 years of age for a few months. It is also similarly effective for wrinkles on the forehead and “Crows-feet” (corners of the eyes). Other commonly used products to reduce appearance of wrinkles in these areas are Dysport and Xeomin and they work on wrinkles in basically the same
way. Hereafter, Botox will also imply any of the other two products. How does it work? Botox and the other two products work in the same way; by relaxing the muscles in the three areas. Wrinkles in these areas could have resulted from squinting in prolonged exposure to sun, and frowning in worrisome and stressful environment. How long does the result last? Generally 3 to 5 months, depending upon the severity of the wrinkles, age of the person, the skin condition and also if the person has previously taken Botox treatment. Asking for a bigger dose than that recommended by a physician would not make the result last longer. On the contrary, it is likely to cause some problems (“horror stories – see below). Why the horror stories? After
Botox, some people have experienced eyebrow or eyelid droop down; the “ugly look”. This is due to excessive dose or inaccurate injection site. Obviously, the problem is not Botox or its competing products. It is because of faulty injecting technique. How to avoid unsatisfactory result? The injecting sites have to be carefully selected to effectively neutralize the wrinkles. The experience and expertise of the injector (physician) is critically important in getting optimally good result. He/ she must have good accurate knowledge of the anatomy of the muscles to be injected, before selecting the injecting sites. Sure, you should shop for Botox prices, but don’t shop for it as if you are buying a grocery item. That is why the question “How much
you charge for Botox” can lead you to some low-priced place, where you may not find an experienced physician. Instead, focus on who will give you the treatment correctly. Will it be the physician who talked to you during consultation, or some other “trained” person? Also, what is the level of experience and expertise of the physician? Then only the price should come in to consideration. One such experienced physician is Neeta Mitroo, MD, who owns and operates Sitara Medi Spa at 2461 East Commercial Blvd. in Fort Lauderdale. She has over 15 years of experience in Botox and other aesthetic injectable treatments. She uses the latest advanced injecting techniques. Give Sitara a call for FREE consultation. They will make you feel like a star; like their logo says. 954-237-6646.

Reduce Medidas de Manera Natural Lose Inches Los tejidos grasos en el cuerpo representan un depósito de material de desecho donde se acumulan sustancias que no pueden ser metabolizadas. Estos tejidos congestionados tienen muy poca circulación, donde la sangre no puede entrar y las toxinas no pueden salir. Una manera natural y efectiva para tratar estos tejidos es a través de una combinación de drenaje linfático y masaje profundo llamada Lypossage. Esta técnica limpia el cuerpo de la acumulación del líquido linfático que aumenta el volumen de ciertas zonas. El masaje más profundo rompe las adhesiones debajo de la piel que originan la celulitis. Este tratamiento ayuda también a tonificar los músculos, levantando y reafirmando los tejidos. Las áreas a tratar incluyen los glúteos, caderas, muslos, abdomen, pecho, espalda y brazos, dándoles una apariencia más firme y lisa a la piel afectada por la edad y acumulación de grasa. De igual manera se pueden lograr resultados dramáticos en la cara y cuello, produciendo un “lift” natural. Lypossage es un tratamiento reductivo seguro y natural que ofrece muchos beneficios. Al ayudar al cuerpo a
eliminar las toxinas y la retención de líquidos, también mejoramos nuestra energía corporal, la claridad mental y nuestro bienestar general. Los tratamientos pueden durar de 30 minutos a una hora y se ofrecen en series de 18 sesiones durante un periodo de 6 semanas. Los resultados son notorios después de 8 sesiones aproximadamente. La adopción de un estilo de vida saludable es el mejor complemento a este tratamiento. Una dieta rica en alimentos enteros y orgánicos, la práctica regular de Yoga y una rutina de ejercicios cardiovasculares contribuirán a obtener los mejores resultados. Evitar alimentos que contengan hormonas, conservadores y que estén procesados, permitirá mantener un cuerpo limpio y en óptimas condiciones. Se recomiendo beber una buena cantidad de agua y té de jengibre para mantener un cuerpo sin toxinas. Ven y confirma si eres candidato para este tratamiento alternativo de reducción de talla. Te invitamos cordialmente a que hagas tu cita llamándonos al 954-237-3500 o visitando www.jothivita.com.

the Natural Way
Lose Inches the Natural Way! The fatty tissue in your body acts as a “toxic waste disposal site”, where substances that cannot be metabolized are deposited. This congested tissue also has poor blood circulation, so when blood has a hard time getting in, waste has a hard time getting out. A natural way for treating this tissue is through a blend of lymphatic drainage and deep-tissue massage called Lypossage. This technique cleanses the body of the stagnant lymphatic fluid that causes the lumps and bulges. Deeper strokes break up adhesions under the skin that contribute to the dimpled, uneven appearance of cellulite. This treatment also tones the muscles, lifting and firming the tissues. Areas to be treated include the buttocks, hips, thighs, abdomen, chest, back and arms, giving a firmer smoother appearance to the saggy, creepy skin that belies aging. Treating the face and neck can also create dramatic reaffirming effects, producing a natural lift. Lypossage is a safe and natural
reductive treatment that offers many benefits. By helping the body flush out toxins and retained fluids, it can also enhance energy, mental clarity and overall well-being. Treatments last from 30 minutes to one hour and are performed in a series of 18 over the course of 6 weeks. Noticeable results will occur after about 8 treatments.
The adoption of a healthy lifestyle is the best complement to Lypossage. A diet rich in whole organic foods, practicing Yoga regularly and some cardio routine will contribute to a terrific outcome. Avoiding foods that contain hormones, preservatives and are processed or refined, will allow to keep the newly detoxified body in the best shape possible. Drinking generous amounts of water and ginger tea is key to maintaining the body cleansed. Schedule a private consultation for complete details and to find out if you are a good candidate for this unique, alternative contouring treatment.

ith her unique urban style and catchy rap beats, Rebbeca Marie Gomez, better known by her stage name as Becky G, at only 18, has managed to capture the hearts of her fans, called #Beasters and today is one of the most followed singers across every social media platform. This inspiring Latina has become a powerful role model for teen. Always the trendsetter, she is currently the dazzling face for Covergirl. Becky G first became recognized in 2011, after she posted several videos of herself performing remixes of popular songs on YouTube. Her unique urban pop style with a bit of Latin spice made her a sensation. Becky G quickly rose to stardom following the release of her EP “Play It Again” in which she pays homage to her Mexican heritage while cruising through her old school with her girlfriends. Her real break came when songwriter/ record producer Dr. Luke showed one of her early music videos to will.i.am, the multi-platinum producer and Black Eyed Peas frontman immediately wanted her and the rest is history. Becky spent her early childhood in Moreno Valley living with her SpanishMexican family and went through difficult financial times, even living in her grandmother’s garage. Becky began writing her own songs and recording them on GarageBand at age 11. By 13, she had taught herself to play the guitar. But Stardom didn’t change Becky who still does chores - cleans the bathroom and watches her three younger siblings. Her recent video “Becky From The Block” (which was filmed in Becky’s Los Angeles hometown of Inglewood) has “knocked it out of the park” on YouTube. Some of her recent accomplishments: -Scoring a #1 single (Can’t Get Enough feat.Pitbull) on Latin Billboard Charts, - Winning “The Best New Artist” award on Radio Disney Music Awards, wrapping her first major support tour with Austin Mahone. -Named one of Time Magazines most influential teens of 2014 as well as one of Billboard Magazine’s under 21 (2014) Music’s Hottest Young Stars. -Her hit single “Shower” was one of People Magazine’s “Top 10 Song of the Summer.”

-She recently toured with Demi Lovato and Katy Perry. -Joined pop Mexican megastar Thalía to film the video “Como Tú No Hay Dos.” At what age did you realize you had star power? BG *I think I really discovered it the 1st time I set foot on stage at the age of 10 at Universal City Walk. I felt such a rush and the most powerful feeling that just came over me. I felt invincible. You started writing songs at age 11, what inspired you? What did you rap about? BG*The 1st time I started writing music was because I heard a writer made more money than the artist in some songs. It motivated me to not just stop at singing but being part of the entire process. Your parents are Mexican, do you celebrate the Latino culture at home? BG*My parents are second generation and my grandparents only speak Spanish. My 1st language was English and if I wanted to have a relationship with my grandparents I would have to speak to them in Spanish. We celebrate our Latino culture everyday not just on holidays. It’s in our food every day, it’s in the way we speak, our mannerisms, the way we pray as a family, the way we celebrate, it’s in our music we listen to, it’s in the programming we watch on TV. I love everything about our culture and I embrace it.
What’s your favorite Latin food? BG*My favorite Latin food is this dish called Posole, I also love “tacos de asado con todo.” Can’t leave out some good chicken and cheese enchiladas. Yum… getting hungry from just thinking about it. What are some of the best lessons you learned from growing up in Inglewood? BG*Growing up In Inglewood I always remember how my grandma would cook great amounts of food and take food to the neighbors or the people who lived around the block or down the street. Eventually the same people she shared food with would bring dishes back to her with amazing food. If someone was sick in the neighborhood we knew to pray for them. The Community was very sweet to each other. What was the first song you remixed? Who is your favorite artist to remix? BG*Kesha’s Die Young was my first official remix after getting signed:) my favorite artist I like remixing always changes! I love so many artist! What artists would you like to collaborate with in the future? BG*I would love to collaborate with Artist like Shakira, Jennifer Lopez, Miguel, Daddy Yankee, Bruno Mars ,
Nick Jonas, Demi Lovato, Katy Perry, Megan Trainor and many more :) What do you like most about being “The” face of CoverGirl cosmetics? BG*It’s a great brand, it’s very reachable to girls my age. I remember wearing CoverGirl makeup at the age of 13. I think cover girl caters very well to young woman. It’s fun and it’s really good makeup. You have toured with Demi Lovato, Katy Perry and Jason Derulo and had collaborations with Will.i.am to Pitbull and recently did a duet with Thalia…What’s next for Becky G? Movies, TV, more music?… BG*I’m so excited about my career right now, I would love to see myself on the big screen in a movie , I want to put my hands in fashion, I would want to be in some of my favorite shows that I watch. Who knows, I’m just excited and fell very blessed to be able to have these amazing opportunities. What’s your best advice for young aspiring singers? BG*Don’t ever give up. Always listen to yourself and go with your gut. Be ready for the challenges. It’s not easy but definitely worth it!

Yum ... me dio hambre de sólo pensar en ello. ¿Cuál fue la mejor lección que tuviste al crecer en Inglewood? BG * Siempre recuerdo cómo mi abuela cocinaba grandes cantidades de comida y le llevaba a los vecinos o la gente que vivía alrededor de la cuadra o por la calle. Con el tiempo esas mismas personas compartían su comida deliciosa con nosotros. Si alguien estaba enfermo en el barrio orábamos por ellos. La Comunidad fue muy cariñosa el uno con el otro. ¿Cuál fue la primera canción remix? ¿Quién es tu artista favorito de remix? BG * LA canción de Kesha, “Die Young” mi primer remix oficial. ¡Los artista que me gustan siempre cambian! ¡Me encanta muchos artistas!

Becky G fue descubierta en el año 2011, después de que publicó varios videos musicales en YouTube. Su estilo único de pop urbano con su toque de sabor latino la hizo una sensación. Becky G se levantó rápidamente al estrellato tras el lanzamiento de su EP “Play It Again” en el que rinde homenaje a su herencia mexicana durante una visita a su vieja escuela con sus amigas. Su verdadera oportunidad llegó cuando el productor y compositor Dr. Luke mostró uno de sus videos musicales a Will.i.am y el resto es historia. Becky pasó su infancia en Moreno Valley donde vivía con su familia española-mexicana y atravesó muchas dificultades financieras, incluso viviendo en el garaje de su abuela. Becky comenzó a escribir sus propias canciones y grabarlas en GarageBand a los 11 años. A los 13, aprendió a tocar la guitarra por sí misma. Sin embargo ser estrella no cambió a Becky ya que todavía hace tareas - limpia el baño y cuidad a sus tres hermanos menores. Su reciente video “Becky From The Block” (que fue filmado en Los Angeles, en la ciudad natal de Becky Inglewood) arrasó en YouTube. Algunos de sus logros recientes: -Su sencillo (Can’t Get Enough feat.Pitbull) llegó a #1 en las Listas de Billboard Latino. - Obtuvo el premio “El Mejor Nuevo Artista” en Radio Disney Music Awards, y logró su primera gira con Austin Mahone. -Recientemente estuvo de gira con Demi Lovato y Katy Perry. -Se unió a la mega estrella mexicana Thalía para filmar el video “Como Tú No Hay Dos”. ¿A qué edad supiste que tenías lo que se necesita para ser estrella? BG * Creo que realmente lo descubrí la primera vez que puse un pie en el escenario a la edad de 10 años en Universal City Walk. Sentí una poderosa sensación que se apoderó de mí. Me sentía invencible. Empezaste a escribir canciones a los 11 años, ¿Qué fue lo que te inspiró ¿Acerca de qué eran tus canciones de rap? BG * La primera vez que empecé a escribir música fue porque escuché que los escritores hacen más dinero que los artistas en algunas ocasiones. Me motivó a no sólo dedicarme al canto, sino también a ser parte de todo el proceso. Tus padres son mexicanos, ¿celebras la cultura latina en casa? BG * Mis padres son de segunda generación y mis abuelos sólo hablan español. Mi primer idioma es inglés y si yo quería tener una relación con mis abuelos tenía que hablar con ellos en español. Celebramos nuestra cultura latina cotidiana no sólo en días festivos. Está en nuestra comida todos los días, es en la forma en que hablamos, nuestros gestos, la forma en que rezamos en familia, nuestras celebraciones, la música que escuchamos, en la programación que vemos en la televisión. Me encanta todo lo relacionado con nuestra cultura y yo la abrazo. Foto: Emilio Sanchez

Lincoln MKC
El nuevo Lincoln MKC no sólo es visualmente impresionante; también es increíblemente inteligente e innovador. Una de las características más impresionantes de la MKC es su nuevo control de sonido, “Active Noise Control”. Con esta tecnología, el ruido no deseado se reduce mientras que el sonido deseado se amplia. Los micrófonos monitorean el sonido de la cabina, el cual se replica e invierte para generar una onda opuesta de sonido a través de los altavoces. La onda de sonido original y la opuesta simplemente se anulan entre sí. El control activo de ruido es especialmente eficaz en baja frecuencia o tonalidad.
QindredCam
Si estás cansado de perder “momentos Kodak” porque no consiguió su cámara a tiempo, entonces el QindredCam es la cámara perfecta para usted. Este clip-on, o cámara que se cuelga al cuello puede detectar automáticamente recuerdos que valen la pena en base a ciertas señales. La cámara se auto-activa si alguien sonríe o si hay un cambio en la atmósfera o la iluminación. El app de QuindredCam le permite ver lo que la cámara está capturando en tiempo real y facilita compartir en las redes sociales. El QindredCam viene con 4 GB de memoria, y se puede aclarar fácilmente mediante la transferencia de las fotos a su Smartphone o cloud. Esta cámara automatizada saldrá a la venta en los EE.UU., Europa y Japón a mediados del 2015 con un precio de 149 dólares.
The new Lincoln MKC is not only visually stunning; it’s also incredibly smart and innovative. One of the MKC’s most impressive features is the Active Noise Control. With this technology, unwanted noise is reduced while desired sound is enhanced. The microphones monitor the cabin’s sound profile, which is replicated and inverted to generate an opposing sound wave through the speakers. The original sound wave and the opposing one simply cancel each other out. Active noise control is especially effective in low frequency or pitch range.
If you’re tired of missing life’s “Kodak moments” because you didn’t get your camera out in time, then the QindredCam is just for you. This clip-on, or necklaced, camera can automatically detect memories worth capturing based on certain cues. The camera will selfactivate if someone smiles or if there’s a change in atmosphere or lighting. The accompanying app allows you to see what the camera is capturing real-time and facilitates social sharing. The QindredCam comes with 4GB of memory, and can easily be cleared by transferring the photos to your smartphone or cloud. This automated camera will be released throughout the US, Europe and Japan in Q2 2015 with a price tag of $149.

Serving you since 1984… Mariel Boat Lift 1980, 126 thousand Cuban’s abandon the communist island in a massive exodus. The Vilariño family were among the fortunate to make it through the turbulent stretch and reach the land of the free. After years of hardship the family was determined to make the American dream come true. In 1984 Antonio, his wife Nilda and five daughters bought their first restaurant, Las Vegas in Hollywood. While Antonio learned to cook, Nilda and the girls catered to loyal patrons providing personable service, which has proven to be a drawing factor in their enduring success. Shortly thereafter, Las Vegas became known as the Cuban hot spot in Hollywood, guaranteeing customers authentic Cuban dishes and the friendliest service in town. Today with many more restaurants, the family continues to offer the same quality service, food and atmosphere that attracted locals for the past twenty years. “ Our deepest gratitude to our loyal customers & this beautiful country for allowing our family to pursue our dreams”

Solo quien ha saboreado el néctar de un buen vino, disfrutando las sensaciones que produce esta ancestral bebida, encarna las palabras del autor “del Viejo y del mar”.
E
Anécdotas
Vino del
l vino registra una existencia de unos 8,000 años. Algunas fuentes vinculan la raíz del vocablo con el remoto Sanscrito, en la palabra VANA (amor) de la que también derivaría la palabra Venus, esta relación semántica se sostendría en la antigua creencia de sus virtudes afrodisiacas, tal vez por lo cual Eurípides, el poeta clásico griego diría, “Donde no hay vino, no hay Amor”. Desde tiempos remotos el hombre afín de asegurar fuentes salubres de agua, encontró una placentera sustitución en las bebidas Espirituosas. La idea, compartida por diversas culturas, de que el vino es de origen divino proviene del hecho que fermenta por sí misma, ya que las levaduras del medio ambiente se adhieren a la piel del fruto (la cascara) y, al ser aplastado, mezcla el jugo y da inicio a la fermentación. El calificativo de espirituoso, se deriva del vocablo latinos spiritus=soplo, alma, por lo que se asocia al vapor sutil y aromático que desprenden los vinos. Dando la imagen, que el espíritu se separaba del cuerpo ascendiendo a las alturas,
de allí la frase: “ El vino te levanta el espíritu” por lo que el escritor uruguayo Eduardo Galeano, afirma “todos somos mortales, hasta el primer beso y la segunda copa de vino” En la antigua Grecia, su trascendencia hizo que le asignaran una deidad, Dionisio dios del vino y el éxtasis. Pero el vino, no solo era placer, ya Hipócrates, padre de la medicina menciona su uso. Los egipcios, lo llamaron lagrimas de Horus (dios con cabeza de pájaro) provendría de allí, el calificativo ornitológico para los individuos de escasa resistencia etílica. Los hebreos, Según la Biblia, fue Noé quien reimplanto la Vid después del diluvio. Y es un Don incluido entre las bendiciones de Dios. El vino “regocija el corazón del hombre mortal”, pone al corazón de “humor alegre” (salmos). Los Romanos, que desde su aparición en la historia con los licántropos mellizos Rómulo y Remo, emplearon el vino para embriagar a los familiares de las sabinas, ejecutando su famoso rapto y así balancear el género en la recién fundada Roma.
Por: Martin Arce El Vino,...... es una de las cosas más civilizadas del mundo. (Ernest Hemingway)
Roma remodeló la faz de la cultura occidental, dio un nuevo auge en la tecnología y conocimiento en la producción del vino, trascendiendo a nuevas regiones que se convertirían en grandes productores hasta la actualidad, como Francia, Alemania, España y Portugal. “Ecce Hommo” He aquí el hombre, expresión que divide una era, el cristianismo, con Jesús, el vino alcanza un protagonismo litúrgico, desde el primer milagro en las bodas de canan, con la conversión del agua en vino, hasta su epilogo con la celebración de la eucaristía, la transustanciación simbólica en la sangre de Cristo, durante la última cena. Es así que esta sacra bebida, nos ha acompañado a lo largo de nuestra existencia, en los momentos más significativos, un brindis sella en nuestros labios los recuerdos más sublimes y como reza el refrán de un viejo amigo argentino “Todos los poemas que se recuerdan nunca fueron escritos con una copa de agua”.

B

P53 | April 2015 | www.holalatinonews.com | Earth Day
Living Greener Here’s how to make a difference:
In the AM • Brew “certified” coffee. A USDA Certified Organic label means it was grown using sustainable standards. At Work • Configure your office printer or copy machine so it prints on both sides of the page. • Fill up a water bottle: instead of buying disposable plastic water bottles, fill up a refillable water container to decrease the energy used in producing, transporting, and disposing plastic bottles. • Use electronic media. Make greater use of electronic media and limit the number of print outs. • Recycle! No matter what kind of paper you buy, and how much you use, recycle as much of it as possible. • Use BYOB bags to carry your lunch or buy food. Before Bed • Truly turn off electronics. Plug your devices — the TV and DVD player, or the computer and printer — into a ULcertified power strip; switch the whole group off. • Turn off the water while brushing your teeth. Leaving the tap running during the recommended two minutes of brushing can waste up to five gallons of water a day.
In General -Reduce plastic use. Many kinds of plastics contain endocrine disrupters that can cause all sorts of health issues from obesity to liver problems. -Avoid food treated with antibiotics. Widespread use of antibiotics for livestock has led to the growth of superbugs that cause illness in humans and decrease the effectiveness of certain drugs. Buy organic meat and dairy products or switch to a vegetarian/vegan diet. -Say no to Bulk Mail: EarthShare’s partner, 41pounds.org, can help you rid your life of all that waste by contacting 20 to 30 direct mail companies on your behalf to stop the majority of your bulk mail. For each person who signs up for their service, 41pounds.org donates more than 1/3 of the $41 fee to EarthShare and they’ll stop your junk mail for five years. This will: •Save trees. More than 100 million trees are destroyed each year to produce junk mail. 42% of timber harvested nationwide becomes pulpwood for paper. •Reduce global warming. The energy used to produce and dispose of junk mail exceeds 2.8 million cars.

An eco-friendly lifestyle is easier than you think. In celebration of the 40th anniversary of Earth Day, we bring you these tips to create a greener environment for you— and our beautiful earth.
•Save water. About 28 billion gallons of water are wasted to produce and recycle junk each year. •Save time. You waste about 70 hours a year dealing with junk mail. -Switch to an electric vehicle or hybrid. Hybrids and electric vehicles are now available from just about every manufacturer, have better gas mileage and run cleaner than their counterparts. If you can’t make the switch, try to look for a car that has the highest miles per gallon (MPG). -Recycle your cross-trainers. After putting in all of that extra mileage, your new shoes are bound to lose their bounce. Instead of tossing them, give your shoes new life with Nike’s Reuse-A-Shoe program. Just drop them off at any Nike store. Worn out shoes are used to build new tracks, basketball and tennis courts! - Use LED lighting. They achieve full brightness instantly and work well with dimmers. -Opt for organic. Cotton is the most pesticide-intensive crop out there. Non-organic cotton production is responsible for 11% of global pesticide usage. Celebrate this Earth Day by giving thanks to our environment and putting your two cents worth in making a difference.

Destrucción del esmalte
dentario y su peligro
L
a erosión dental y el desgaste dentario son causados por varios factores: Fricción, desgaste, stress, corrosión por ácidos ó la combinación de estos factores. Los ácidos del estomago, comidas, medicinas o drogas, debilitan y ablandan el esmalte produciendo el desgaste dentario. La saliva ayuda a neutralizar la acidez y lentamente endurece el esmalte. Si los ácidos atacan muy frecuentemente, el esmalte no alcanza a recuperarse y empieza la erosión y la sensibilidad dental. La pérdida del esmalte es una condición permanente irreversible, que si no se detecta y trata a tiempo puede terminar en numerosas caries, fracturas y desgaste dental generalizado.
Causas de la erosión dental: • Comidas y bebidas muy acidas erosionan el esmalte. Evite el consumo frecuente y excesivo de estos alimentos. Tome agua para diluir los ácidos en la boca y no se cepille los dientes inmediatamente de consumir ácidos, ya que el cepillo dental acelera el desgaste del esmalte que ya está debilitado. • Acidéz estomacal y reflujo. El reflujo ácido se produce cuando los ácidos del estomago pasan del estomago al esófago y a la boca causando ardor y erosión en los dientes.
Dr. Marcela Newman DDS, MS
• Bulimia es un desorden emocional en el cual la persona induce el vómito. El ácido frecuente desgasta el esmalte y puede producir caries. • Alcoholismo y drogadicción. El consumo excesivo de alcohol y drogas ilegales produce daños severos al esmalte de los dientes. El dentista puede ser el primero en observar los cambios en la higiene bucal, signos de erosión dental o caries debido al consumo de drogas y alcohol.
Causas del Desgaste Dentario:
• El apretamiento de los dientes con el tiempo puede producir desgaste y fracturas dentales. Su dentista le puede recomendar una férula para proteger los dientes. • Cepillarse muy fuerte no implica mejor limpieza para sus dientes. Cepille lenta y suavemente sus dientes usando un cepillo de cerdas suaves. • Reducción de saliva. La saliva ayuda a neutralizar la acidez y lentamente endurece el esmalte. Si usted tiene ‘boca seca”, tome mucha agua para mantener la boca lubricada. Su dentista lo puede ayudar a detectar signos de erosión y desgaste dental antes de que progrese y cause daños excesivos. Una simple férula solo toma dos visitas y cuesta mucho menos que restaurar la boca completa con coronas y conductos. No espere a que le duela. Visite a su dentista frecuentemente.
El esmalte es la capa que recubre los dientes. Es el material más duro del cuerpo y protege a los dientes durante la masticación.

HIPPITY HOP, DON’T EASTER BUNNY SHOP
H
ave you ever wondered how the Easter Bunny originated? The Easter Bunny has become such a joyous symbol of Christianity’s most important holiday due to being an ancient symbol of fertility and new life at spring time. The Easter Bunny first arrived in America in the 1700’s with German immigrants who settled in Pennsylvania and transported their tradition of an egg-laying hare called “Osterhase” or Oschter Haws.” Their children made nests in which this creature would lay its colored eggs. The custom of the Easter Bunny folklore goes on to this day. Did you know that a Hare and a Bunny are two different species? The Hare doesn’t burrow and is bigger, has larger ears and not as social both species can conceive a second litter while still having buns in the oven, hence the saying “To breed like bunnies.” Rabbits must be Christian because they sure don’t believe in birth control wag wag. I am asking that all Christians and houses of worship educate families and their children although bunnies are cute it’s no fun for a bun at Easter time unless you are going to make a ten year commitment. Bunnies are like me they have emotions and are not harebrained no bun intended. Bunnies are sexy too look at the Playboy Bunnies wag wag.... Have you ever met a Jewish bunny they hop to shop if I had a cotton tail it would be bopping right now. Children and bunnies are not a match made in Heaven. Please request that your local pet stores STOP SELLING RABBITS. Children make rabbits nervous and stressed which can cause a heart attack. Rabbits are not little puppies they are more subtle. They are NOT stuffed animals and are insecure when held. Rabbits are not cuddly like they appear. It is not right to expect your child to take on the responsibility of a rabbit. Once your child looses interest the rabbit winds up neglected and surrendered to the pound. Bunnies chew electrical cords rugs, books and furniture. Our bunny chewed on our antique Chinese cabinet. Outdoor rabbits become depressed from being isolated. They are intelligent social animals who don’t want to live their life in a hutch outside away from the family. The moment they stop grazing and going #2 you have 1 hour to get them to an Exotic Animal Vet. Here is a poem I want to share with you to give anyone you may know that plans on buying their child a live bunny to read.Links to Rabbit Rescues in South Florida are: http://www.southfloridarabbitrescue.com/Phone: 561-212-2712http://www.bio.miami.edu/hare/hare.htm lKEY LARGO ANIMAL SHELTER RESCUED RABBITS or call them at 305-451-0088 to learn more about their current adoptable rabbits. http://rabbit.org/faq-how-to-find-a-goodrabbit-vhttp:// www.bio.miami.edu/hare/vets.htmlet/ FLYERS FOR RABBIT RIGHTS http://rabbit.org/flyers-for-easter-and-bunnies-dont-mix/
EASTER BUNNY POEM by Mary Brandolino In Memory of all the bunnies we couldn’t save. I remember Easter Sunday it was colorful and fun. The new life that I’d begun in my new cage. I was just a little thing when they brought me from the store and they put me on the floor in my cage. They would take me out to play love and pet me all the time then at day’s end I would climb into my cage. In the night outside their house I felt so sad and so neglected often scared and unprotected in my cage. In the dry or rainy weather sometimes hotter sometimes colder I just sat there growing older in my cage. The cat and dog raced by me playing with each other only while I sat there feeling lonely in my cage. Upon the fresh green grass children skipped and laughed all day I could only watch them play from my cage. They used to take me out and let me scamper in the sun I no longer get to run in my cage. Once a cute and cuddly bunny like a little ball of cotton now I’m grown up and forgotten in my cage. I don’t know what went wrong at the home I did inhabit I just grew to be a rabbit in my cage. But they’ve brought me to the pound I was once loved and enjoyed now I wait to be destroyed in my cage. A rabbit’s foot is not a good luck charm and the only rabbit for your child at Easter time is a chocolate Easter Bunny. Dogs Cats & Rabbits cannot eat chocolate Easter Bunnies or Peeps. I love Peeps but they get my fur all sticky. Domestic rabbits should never be set free.

This Heat Season A Big Success,
Given All The Challenges
In April, the Miami Heat will most likely be headed to the NBA playoffs, which is truly AMAZING for the team and the fans known as “Heat Nation”. This has been one of the most challenging years in the team’s history. They started the year adjusting to Lebron’s departure to Cleveland, they lost Josh McRoberts one of their key off-season acquisitions to a knee injury, and then lost their franchiseplayer Chris Bosh for the season to a lung blood clot. Necessary adjustments have generated a record 28 different starting line-ups. Additions to the team have included Hassan Whiteside, who has shown star-quality but has also shown to be a hot-head. Michael Beasley is back for his third time with the Heat with multiple 10-day contracts and extensions.

Goran Dragic new but key to the Heat’s success.
And then there is the rest of the team who bring it all together and demonstrating their experience, Dwayne Wade, Udonis Haslem, Mario Chambers and the “Birdman”, as well as Luol Deng and Goran Dragic. They will ALL need to make significant contributions each and every game in order to win even in the first round. It’s still unknown what team the Heat will play in the first round; but most likely they will either play the Cleveland Cavaliers or Atlanta Hawks. The best matchup for the Heat to have a winning chance would be to play Cleveland, who the Heat has beat 2-1 this season. Needless to say playing spoiler to the Cleveland Cavaliers and LeBron James would be a lot of FUN for the “Heat Nation” and NBA fans around the country and the world.
