LETTER FROM THE EDITOR-IN-CHIEF Esta será una de mis ediciones favoritas por dos razones: Lo obvio, Richard Gere está adornando nuestra portada. Una de sus mayores fans, sin duda, tengo total admiración por este actor internacional y de carácter humanitario. ¡La otra razón es que me encanta porque es nuestra edición de primavera!
Nancy Esteves Editor-in-Chief
La primavera significa nuevos comienzos. ¡Muchos de nosotros limpiamos nuestros closets y casas, y otros deciden desintoxicar sus cuerpos con el fin de prepararse para los bikinis en el verano! Por lo tanto, esta edición tiene un montón de ideas frescas - desde modas de las pasarelas de Nueva York, y los mejores sitios para visitar en Europa durante la primavera y mucho más. Para aquellos que no van a viajar este mes, no se preocupen, habrá bastantes festividades durante las celebraciones del Día de San Patricio en la ciudad. Este mes también tenemos uno de los más emblemáticos eventos internacionales y culturales del año en Miami, no se lo pueden perder. El Festival de Cine de Miami 2017 tiene una gran alineación de artistas, muchos de ellos de nuestras mismas comunidades quienes estarán presentes en el Festival como Gloria y Emilio Estefan, así que denle un vistazo al artículo del evento en esta edición. Y sí, amigas, ¡Richard Gere estará allí durante la noche de estreno!
This will be one of my favorite issues for two reasons: The obvious, Richard Gere is gracing our cover. One of his biggest fans for sure, I have total admiration for this international actor and humanitarian. The other reason I love this issue: it’s our spring edition! Spring is about new beginnings. Many of us clean out our closets and homes, and others decide to detox their bodies in order to get ready for those summer bikinis! So this issue appropriately has a lot of fresh ideas—from fashion hot off the runways in New York, to travel hot spots in Europe during spring. For those that won’t travel this month, not to worry, there will be plenty of festivities during St. Patrick’s Day celebrations in town.
Editor’s Pick. : American Gigolo Richard Gere movie My all time favorite
This month we also have one of Miami’s most iconic international and cultural events of the year, not too be missed. The 2017 Miami Film Festival has a great line-up of artists, many from our own backyard that will be gracing the Miami Film Festival such as Gloria and Emilio Estefan, so check out our feature on the festival. And yes ladies, Richard Gere will be there during opening night!

fashion Fashion Inspired by For his very first “Pre-fall” collection, GEORGES HOBEIKA expresses the strength of his designing craftsmanship and the delicacy of his stylistic signature through a masterful interpretation of his favorite creative inspiration: nature. These images stand out vividly on aerial fabrics, as thin as the graceful Lepidoptera wings. Wings in flight scale transparent fabrics and are exalted by streams of meticulously embroidered lace. Sparkling reflections illuminate evanescent outfits of both deep and evocative color.
Moda inspirada en la naturaleza Para su primera colección pre-otoño, Georges Hobeika expresa la fuerza de su diseño artesanal y la delicadeza del estilo de su firma a través de una majestuosa interpretación de su fuente de inspiración favorita: la naturaleza. Mientras que la fauna y la flora crecen en metamorfosis simbólica junto a la mariposa, hilos de oro animan exquisitas variaciones de patrones multicolores. Estas imágenes destacan vívidamente en telas aéreas, tan finas como las elegantes alas de Lepidópteros. Las alas en vuelo escalan telas transparentes y son exaltadas por corrientes de cordones meticulosamente bordados. Chispeantes reflejos iluminan los trajes evanescentes de color profundo e inspirador.

Luxury Residences in Miami: THE NEW TREND By: Jhonny Montenegro
Sunny Isles, one the most exclusive areas in South Florida, is home to several luxury properties with a new trend: Offering fivestar-resort-like services Opulence and ostentation are two words that perfectly describe the new trend that is popular among those who enjoy a life of luxury, comfort and unrivaled services. Perhaps a few years ago it might have seemed impossible, but today Miami is one of the ultimate luxury destinations in the world. Who hasn’t felt like a King or Queen at a five-star hotel?-- Luxury rooms, fine dining, customized concierge services, coupled with a beachfront with clear waters, white sand, and palm trees- make this a dream lifestyle. There is an increasing trend by Miami developers to offer luxury resort-like properties. An example is the Ritz-Carlton Residences which are currently under construction in exotic Sunny Isles, a place that attracts visitors from all over the world. The Ritz-Carlton Residences Sunny Isles will offer luxury amenities that include: Cabanas, beachfront fitness centers, private club, bars, exclusive breakfast and dining areas, business centers, among others. The Ritz-Carlton brand will provide the legendary service they have been renowned for over a century. “Today’s luxury developments offer a lifestyle for those who reside in them: with five star, all- inclusive, tailored services,” said Edgardo Defortuna, project developer and founder of Fortune International Group. “This new trend appeals to the affluent market- those who look to invest and enjoy life at their property.” Another factor that stands out about the Ritz-Carlton Residences, Sunny Isles, is its convenient location: close to Aventura Mall, Ball Harbour luxury boutiques, and the Miami International Airport. The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Sunny Isles, slated to be completed by 2019, is the perfect example of where the Miami real estate market is headed. A splendid design and architecture will be complemented with breathtaking scenery that will give its residents all the excitement, diversity and beauty the city has to offer. Other developments by Fortune include: Jade Signature; Jade Residences at Brickell Bay; 1200 Brickell; Artech; Le Meridian Sunny Isles Beach; Jade Beach; Jade Ocean; which have already become luxuryliving icons. The Château Group developed the Château Beach Residences, a luxury condo in Sunny Isles, as well as the FENDI- Château Residences in Surfside (which is the first FENDI-branded real estate development in the world.) Fortune and Château Group have merged their luxury real estate development experience to build the Ritz-Carlton Residences, Sunny Isles, with 52 floors and a stunning beachfront. Edgardo Defortuna, president and founder of Fortune International Group said: “We have a spectacular design with exuberant gardens designed by Arquitectonica GEO. The lobby is a work of art in itself, with crystal panels and a view to the pool and the beach.” In a metropolitan city like Miami, its residents increasingly demand specific, innovative amenities; and offering a lifestyle is one of the ways that luxury developers remain relevant in the competitive South Florida real estate market. 28 | March 2017 | www.holalatinosnews.com
Ritz-Carlton Residences
Residencias de
lujo en Miami LA NUEVA TENDENCIA Por: Jhonny Montenegro
Sunny Isles, es una de las zonas más exclusivas del sur de la Florida, donde las construcciones de lujo para residir y que ofrecen servicio 5 estrellas, están a la orden del día Ritz-Carlton Residences
Opulencia y ostentación, son dos palabras que describen perfectamente una nueva tendencia que cada día se hace más fuerte entre quienes adoran vivir rodeados de lujos, confort y excelente servicio. Quizás, hace años atrás lo que hoy es una realidad parecía imposible, pero en Miami, donde todos los anhelos pueden materializarse, es posible vivir en residencias lujosas con servicios de hotel incluidos. ¿Quién no se ha sentido el centro de atención cuando pasa vacaciones en un hotel 5 estrellas? Disfrutar de habitaciones de lujo, la buena comida, la atención personalizada y el spa, es toda una experiencia que cualquiera quisiera repetir. Pero cuando a todas estas comodidades se le suma la posibilidad de que a pocos pasos se encuentran cientos de millas de playas cristalinas, arena blanca y palmeras, la idea de vivir todos los días de esta manera llega a la mente de cualquiera. En Miami, cada día es más común que desarrolladores inmobiliarios de lujo ofrezcan propriedades, al estilo de un resort, entre todos, uno que sin duda marcará un antes y un después en la ciudad del sol, es el Ritz-Carlton Residences, que está siendo construído en la exótica isla de Sunny Isles, adorada por suramericanos y europeos. El Ritz-Carlton Residences Sunny Isles, ofrecerá todas las comodidades de un resort de ultra lujo para sus residentes y propietarios. Cabañas, centros de fitness frente al mar, club privado, bares, zonas exclusivas de desayuno, cena y centro de negocios, son algunos de los servicios de primera que brindarán estas residencias. Durante más de 100 años en el mercado la marca Ritz-Carlton, le ha ofrecido a sus huéspedes un servicio de altura. “Los desarrollos de lujo ahora también buscan ofrecer un estilo de vida a quienes residen en ellos: hacerlos sentir que se encuentran en un resort cinco estrellas, con todo incluído y servicios personalizados”, comenta Edgardo Defortuna, desarrollador del proyecto y fundador de Fortune International Group.“Esta nueva tendencia está hecha para un mercado afluente, que busca no sólo invertir sino disfrutar de la vida en su propiedad”. Otro factor que destaca al Ritz-Carlton Residences, Sunny Isles es su ubicación, porque además de ofrecer servicios tipo resort, está ubicado cerca del famoso Aventura Mall, de las boutiques de Bal Harbour, y el Aeropuerto Internacional de Miami. Ritz-Carlton Residences Sunny Isles que estará listo en el 2019, es solo un ejemplo de hacia dónde se está moviendo el mercado inmobiliario en Miami. Un espléndido diseño y arquitectura, se complementarán con un escenario que acercará a sus propietarios a toda la emoción, diversidad y belleza de la ciudad del sol, considerada por muchos la capital de Latinoamérica y el segundo Nueva York de los Estados Unidos. Otros desarrollos de la compañía Fortune incluyen Jade Signature; Jade Residences at Brickell Bay; 1200 Brickell; Artech; Le Meridian Sunny Isles Beach; Jade Beach, Jade Ocean, que ya se han vuelto un ícono de residencias de lujo en la urbe. Por otra parte Château Group desarrolló Château Beach Residences, condominio de lujo en Sunny Isles, y terminó la construcción de FENDI- Château Residences en Surfside; que por cierto es el primer desarrollo inmobiliario en el mundo con la marca FENDI. La buena noticia es que Fortune y Château Group, han unido toda su experiencia desarrollando bienes raíces de lujo para construir el Ritz-Carlton Residences Sunny Isles, en una imponente torre de 52 pisos y 649 pies de alto, erigida directamente frente a la playa. En este sentido, Edgardo Defortuna, presidente y fundador de Fortune International Group, expresó “Contamos con un diseño espectacular, con exuberantes jardines diseñados por Arquitectonica GEO. Tan sólo el impresionante lobby de doble altura con un panel de cristal de cuatro pisos, con vista a la piscina y a la playa, es en sí una obra de arte”. En una metrópolis como Miami, en constante evolución sus residentes cada vez tienen necesidades más específicas, es en este sentido, es que varios desarrolladores inmobiliarios están enfocados, adaptándose rápidamente a la modernidad y a las exigencias del mundo de hoy. www.holalatinosnews.com | March 2017 | 29

Santorini Santorini’s colorful beaches — the black and red sands make for a memorable visit. Once you climb the ancient stairs that lead to the historic city of Manolas in Thirassia, you can catch the world-famous breathtaking view of the caldera, a brilliant turquoise pool of water that and a number of isles in this archipelago. Some say that the isle of Strongyli was the original home of the lost city of Atlantis.

Venice Step off of the Santa Lucia train station and the breathtaking Grand Canal will enchant you. You’ll see water taxis coast along, passing underneath the Ponte degli Scalzi (Bridge of the Barefoot) and might hear the faintest hint of a serenading violin.

If you like opera, the Teatro La Fenice puts on some world-renowned operas. You can also travel to nearby islands like Lido for the beach. www.holalatinosnews.com | March 2017 | 41
Prague Prague’s storied churches, narrow streets, daunting hilltop castle and statue-lined bridges create the scene for a spring fairytale.

The streets are lined with architecture mirroring the styles of the Minoans, the Venetians, and the Ottomans, as well as contemporary Greeks. Those who prefer the great outdoors should head to Rethymnon or Agios Nikolaos for the many beautiful beaches.
Vienna Home to the music of Mozart, Beethoven, and Strauss, the Austrian capital boasts symbolic architecture of carved cherubs, flamboyant figureheads, and dramatic domes.The narrow streets of the Innere Stadt (Inner City) snake through antiquated buildings and extravagant baroque palaces from the Habsburg Monarchy make it a truly unique destination.

Barcelona Barcelona contains both the authentically historic and the wildly bizarre. From the tree-lined Las Ramblas to the narrow alleys of Barri Gòtic; from the beachside nightclubs to the city’s dozens of sacred churches and cathedrals, this city by the sea seems to attract all types. Much of the activity revolves around Las Ramblas, a series of narrow streets and alleys packed with restaurants, nightclubs, and a vibrant pedestrian market. But you should also take a tour of Antoni Gaudí’s masterpieces.
Budapest Here you can step out of a thermal bath and right into a nightclub. In a city that dates back to the Old Stone Age, visiting history buffs can take their pick between Roman, neo-Gothic, Renaissance and Ottoman architecture at sites like Castle Hill and Fisherman’s Bastion. From the multifaceted restaurant scene to the rich Jewish heritage, culture extends from nearly every inch of the Pearl of Danube. Split by the Danube River and composed of three main regions (Pest, Buda and Óbuda), Budapest meshes modern conveniences with ancient architecture.

Cuba and the Caribbean are also prominently featured in the Festival program: Austin Peters’ Give Me Future: Major Lazer in Cuba which explores electronic dancehall superband Major Lazer’s groundbreaking 2015 Havana concert, will unspool in Miami Knight Documentary Achievement Award Competition.
Monday night at seven
Major Lazer is a major force in the world of electronic dancehall. In 2015, riding the wave of their hit “Lean On,” the EDM supergroup undertook a world tour with a stop in Havana, a destination few international acts have had permission or, given its infrastructural issues, inclination to perform. The show was a gamble-but 500,000 habaneros turned up for what turned out to be a history-making event. Fun, fascinating and inspirational, Give Me Future exudes Major Lazer’s motto: “Making the world smaller by making the party bigger.” Director Austin Peters captures the concert while seizing glimpses of a great city in a moment of dizzying transition. Veteran director Fernando Perez’s latest work, Last Days
in Havana (Últimos días en la Habana), will receive its North American premiere in the Festival’s signature Knight Competition, as will Carlos Lechuga’s Santa & Andres (Santa y Andrés), which has yet to be screened in Cuba due to controversy. Symphony in D: This soaring documentary from Dennis Scholl and Miami native Marlon Johnson-whose Deep City: The Birth of the Miami Sound world premiered at the Festival in 2014-tracks the highly unusual and inspired collaboration between Pulitzer Prize-nominated musician Tod Machover and the people of Detroit. www.holalatinosnews.com | March 2017 | 47

AYURVEDIC Approach to Seasonal Allergies
AYURVEDA
y la Temporada de Alergias Entre invierno y primavera, las alergias afectan a un gran porcentaje de la gente, a veces limitando nuestras actividades diarias. Aun cuando el cuerpo puede manifestar diversas reacciones alérgicas hacia muchos elementos como alimentos, medicinas, o cualquier agente externo, aquí nos enfocaremos únicamente a analizar las alergias causadas por la estación o medio ambiente. Te podrás preguntar por qué una persona puede caminar por un campo de flores sin experimentar ningún síntoma, mientras otras no pueden ni siquiera salir de casa sin presentar severos síntomas alérgicos. El factor heriditario es una de las razones principales. Sin embargo, desde la perspectiva Ayurveda, existen tres factores y prácticas a considerar para aliviar los síntomas de las alergias estacionales: 1) Fortalecer el fuego digestivo – este es uno de los factores más importantes para nuestra salud ya que es indispensable tomar la energía e información del ambiente, extraer todo aquello que nos beneficia y eliminar lo que no necesitamos. Para lograrlo requerimos de un sistema digestivo robusto. Algunas formas de fortalecerlo incluyen: a. Meditación – Cuando calmamos nuestra mente y nuestro cuerpo, estamos menos propensos a reaccionar de manera agresiva ante los factores externos. Nuestra capacidad para asimilar los major de nuestro medio ambiente aumenta. b. Respiración Consciente – Inhala profundamente con tu boca cerrada y exhale por la nariz mientras presionas los músculos de la garganta. El sonido debe ser como las olas del mar. Este simple ejercicio ayuda a equilibrar el sistema cardio-respiratorio y fomenta la liberación de emociones de enojo y frustración. c. Desintoxica tu Cuerpo – Uno de los remedios Ayurvédicos más eficaces para tratar alergias es Triphala, la combinación de tres frutas hindús, que ayudan a limpiar el tracto digestivo y remover toxinas del cuerpo. 2) Reducir la absorción de agentes externos – Vivimos en un constante intercambio dinámico con nuestro medio ambiente. Cuando el ambiente tiene una alta cantidad de agentes alérgenos, se vuelve muy difícil controlar los síntomas. Una manera sencilla para reducir sus efectos es: a. Utilizar un “neti pot” – Esta vasija sirve para vertir agua tibia salada en una fosal nasal, sacacándola por la otra. Limpia tu nariz siguiendo este procedimiento una o dos veces al día para liberarte de cualquier agente externo que haya penetrado a tu nariz. b. Lubrica tus fosas nasales – Esta práctica Ayurvédica se conoce como “nasya” y consiste en aplicar algunas gotas de aceite vegetal en tus fosas nasales. El aceite crea una capa protectora para prevenir que los agentes externos se adhieran a nuestras membranas nasales. 3) Equilibra tu “dosha”– Sigue una dieta que equilibre tu dosha, tu constitución mentecuerpo. Si quieres descubrir tu dosha, te invito a que visites nuestro centro o llama al 954-237-3500.

In this season, allergies affect a large percentage of the population and can significantly limit our daily activities. Although the body can manifest allergic reactions to many things, including food, medicines, and other external agent, in this article we will discuss the common phenomenon of environmental or seasonal allergies. You may wonder why one person can spend an afternoon walking through blossoming fields without any symptoms, while others can’t step out the front door without experiencing severe allergic symptoms. Heredity is one of the major distinguishing factors. However, from an Ayurvedic perspective, there are three influential factors and treatments to consider when dealing with seasonal allergies: 1) Strength of the individual’s digestive fire – this is one of the most important factors for our health where we take in energy and information from our environment, extract whatever is beneficial to us, and eliminate everything we don’t need. Ways to increase our digestive fire are: a. Meditation - When we calm the mind and body, we are less likely to respond to external agents aggressively while increasing our ability to take in nourishment from our environment. b. Conscious Breathing - Take an inhalation that is slightly deeper than normal. With your mouth closed, exhale through your nose while constricting your throat muscles. This has a balancing influence on the entire cardiorespiratory system and helps release feelings of irritation and frustration. c. Detoxify your Body – One Ayurvedic herb that is helpful in treating allergies by cleansing the digestive tract and removing toxins is Triphala. 2) Reduce absorption of external allergens - We are in constant dynamic exchange with our external environment. When our environment has high exposure to allergens, it becomes difficult to control symptoms. A simple way to reduce possible effects is: a. Use a neti pot - This container will allow warm salt water to flow in one nostril and out the other. Perform this saline rinse once or twice daily to flush out any material that has come into the nasal passages. b. Lubricate your nostrils – This Ayurvedic practice known as “nasya” consists of applying a few drops of vegetal oil to the nasal passages. The oil forms a protective layer that prevents allergens from attaching themselves to the nasal membranes. 3) Balance your “dosha”– Follow a dosha pacifying diet according to your unique mindbody constitution. I invite you to visit our center to find out about your dosha. Call us at 954-237-3500

Con el eclipse de Sol ocurrido el 26 de Febrero, estamos empezando un nuevo ciclo que durara 6 meses y el cual nos puede llevar de un lado al otro y sentiremos que estamos en una montaña rusa. Los eclipses provocan acontecimientos repentinos, inusuales y desagradables. Mi mejor consejo es respirar profundamente y tomársela con calma. Aries: Puedes experimentar un aumento en su grado de inestabilidad y de agresividad. No te recomiendo los excesos de alcohol o sustancias tóxicas; ya que pueden incrementar tus reacciones viscerales. Tauro: Tendrás ganas de disfrutar de libertad y con muchas ganas de probar algo nuevo y emocionante. Te favorece la socialización, las actividades en grupos. Es más probable que conozcas personas nuevas y de diferentes culturas, también se reactivaran las viejas amistades. Géminis: Te aconsejo este mes evitar iniciar proyectos o dar pasos importantes a largo plazo. Tampoco deberás tomar ninguna decisión con respecto a cambios de trabajo o de profesión. Cáncer: Te favorece la socialización con personas que no sean de tu país de origen. Si has soñado con unas vacaciones, este es tu mejor momento.
Leo: Estas entrando en un nuevo ciclo en tu vida sexual, de aquí en adelante miraras el sexo de manera diferente y podrás aprovechar mejor los dones entregados por el Universo a tu signo zodiacal. Virgo: No te ilusiones en esperar resultados duraderos, especialmente en las relaciones de parejas, te aconsejo que permanezcas humilde y dejes de tratar de encontrar la perfección, ya que corres el riesgo de quedarte solo. Libra: Tendrás la oportunidad de mezclar la cabeza y el corazón, la mente y el amor para encontrar la sabiduría que tienes dentro de ti y así de una vez por todas dejes de comparar. Ten cuidado con problemas sicosomáticos; como fiebres, dolores de cabeza o alergias. Ya que tu cuerpo empezara a sacar a flote tus energías estancadas. Buen momento para realizar dietas, ayunos y depuraciones, tanto físicas como espirituales. Escorpión: Este Eclipse Solar es mágico y les dará la oportunidad por los próximos 6 meses de convertir sus sueños en realidad, si y solo si, aprovechas tus talentos, no te preocupes por tristezas y frustraciones, ya que son pasajeras. Sagitario: Serán unos de meses de problemas familiares en especial con tus padres, relájate y cuenta hasta 10, para que no se forme una tormenta en un vaso de agua.
Capricornio: La relación con tus hermanos empezara un nuevo ciclo. También tu economía empezara a mejorar, deberás ahorrar porque se te avecinan tiempos difíciles; los cuales empezaran en Diciembre de este año y duraran 2.5 años. Acuario: Este mes tus ganancias financieras pueden aumentar, pero lo más importante es que te aumentara tu nivel de satisfacción contigo mismo.
Piscis: A partir de este momento nos sentiremos más generosos y podemos esperar que los favores que tanto hacemos a los demás y la suerte sean dirigidos a nosotros mismos.

Foods That Make You Look
Younger
By: Jenny Patrizia
F
or centuries, both men and women have been looking for the Fountain of Youth. So far, to my knowledge, it hasn’t been found. However the good news is that there are things we can do for ourselves that will help us feel and look younger! You can address most of your common beauty concerns simply by eating the right foods. That’s right—eating well not only does wonders for your waistline and bolsters your immune system but can also provide some very real beauty benefits, such as smoothing wrinkles, giving hair a glossy shine and strengthening flimsy nails. Your diet directly affects your day-to-day appearance and plays a significant
54 | March 2017 | www.holalatinosnews.com
role in how well you age because nutrients, minerals and fatty acids, as well as antioxidants, protect your body from damaging environmental stresses. So here are 5 “Fountain of Youth” types of foods you can add to your every day diet for a more youthful appearance: 1. Coffee. A cup of coffee has bioactive compounds that may help protect your skin from melanoma. 2. Watermelon. Watermelons and tomatoes contain antioxidant compounds that helps skin stave off UV damage, helping in possibly prevent wrinkles. 3. Pomegranates. The seeds of this wonder fruit are
bursting with antioxidants, like vitamin C, that prevent fine lines, wrinkles and dryness by neutralizing the free radicals that weather skin. 4. Blueberries. Blueberries provide both vitamins C and E that work in tandem to brighten skin, even out tone and fight off free-radical damage. 5. Lobster. High in zinc, shellfish has anti-inflammatory properties that can help treat a range of skin annoyances, acne included. Lobster also helps renewal of skin cells. But as you, my readers, know I always try to bring you the best information and resources because you are deserve the best!
MIRADA DE PANDA Dentro del mundo del maquillaje la petición mas común es la de la cobertura de los círculos obscuros, u ojeras, esta característica se presenta en todos nosotros, algunos con mayor intensidad que otros, tanto en hombres como en mujeres, esto ocurre debido a la acumulación de melanina (pigmento existente en la piel) que se concentra mayormente en los anillos orbitarios de los ojos debido a las venas de araña y su dilatación, lo cual ocurre por forma natural, o por falta de sueño, sin embargo muchas veces también suelen ser efectos secundarios de tratamientos médicos. Pero que no cunda el pánico, para todo existen soluciones. Dentro de las alternativas para el mejoramiento de esta área les voy a dar unos tips caseros que son una maravilla, si, en seguida pensamos en nuestras rueditas de pepino, y fíjense que son súper efectivas por su alto contenido de agua, lo que hace que estas arañitas que se concentran allí se relajen, bajando su irrigación y por tal la concentración de melanina, colocarlas durante 10 minutos en los ojos un día por medio es fantástico, las bolsitas de té preferiblemente de camomila (ya que desinflama y no mancha) refrigeradas y por 20 minutos produce cambios asombrosos, sin embargo el descanso siempre va a ser el mejor aliado. Ahora vamos a la magia del maquillaje, primero que nada es imprescindible el uso de cualquier crema para
el contorno de ojos, en el mercado hay un sin fin, mis selecciones son las siguientes, Origins Plantscription™ Anti-Aging Power Eye Cream, belif Moisturizing & Firming Eye Cream, Peter Thomas Roth Cucumber DeTox™ Hydra-Gel Eye Patches. Luego es importante definir que tipo de círculos poseemos, hablando de su coloración, ya que pueden existir de tonalidades rojizas, para los cuales necesitamos primers de base verdosa, están los verdosos amarillentos, que se utiliza primers a base de colores lila o rosa, y los mas comunes, marrones y purpura para el cual se utilizan los amarillos y naranja, este último para mi puede adaptarse a cualquiera de las anteriores, pero un poco mas de información nunca esta de mas, mis marcas preferidas son Mac Cosmetics, Nars, y Urban Decay, preferiblemente líquidos y no en crema por su textura suave y de apariencia natural, y mi pequeño secreto (solo un poquito y con la yema de los dedos) It bye bye undereye. Al aplicar el primer correcto y difuminarlo superficialmente, procedemos a aplicar el corrector según la tonalidad mas adecuada, respetando los undertones amarillos o rojizos de nuestra piel) mi truco es mezclar un poco de ambos, esto ayuda a mantener la base de los primes, es importante sellarlo con un polvo suelto, con moderación, como es el de Laura Mercier Secret Brightening Powder, chau chau!...

Steaklovers will love Red, the Steakhouse With a chic South of Fifth address in Miami Beach, Red, the Steakhouse is a classic must for steakhouse lovers. Since the restaurant opened in South Beach in 2009, Red, the Steakhouse has served and continues to serve only the finest Certified Angus Beef Prime on and off the bone, which is the top 1.5 perfect of all beef available. Red’s menu – created by Executive Chef & Partner Peter Vauthy – is a hybrid of classic cuisine and the freshest seasonal ingredients. Everything from the sauces to garnishes is prepared from scratch. The menu is complimented by a bar boasting a selection of over 500 wines, including the restaurant’s own private blends from Napa and handmade signature cocktails. Named “Innovator of the Year” by the National Beef Association, the award-winning steakhouse is a premier happy hour locale with extensive options, an impressive collection of reserves, and a progressive cocktail menu as well. Despite Miami’s notoriously competitive dining scene, Chef Vauthy’s wellestablished restaurant continues to thrive with flavors that consistently shine through on Red, the Steakhouse’s menu. His secret? Relationships. Chef Vauthy’s Rolodex is his arsenal – filled with contacts that offer him dibs on their freshest catch or latest batch. From fisheries to local farms, personal contacts ring Chef Vauthy first when new ingredients become available. This “phone-to-table” approach results in daily specials like fresh Alaskan King Crab flown in straight from the Bering Sea, scarce finds like spiny Brittany blue lobster, and batches of Porcini mushrooms the size of a hand. Rounding out his repertoire, Chef Peter is a bit of a social media maven, offering up drool-worthy, behind-the-scenes food shots on his Instagram (@ RedSteakhouse), plus a bit of his personal side and lifestyle pursuits in occasional shots featuring his two dogs, Peanut and Capone – his other true passions.

tecnologí a Semáforos en el suelo, la solución para zombies adictos al Smartphone
La adicción al celular se ha convertido en un gran problema, cada vez más gente camina como zombie con la mirada fija en la pantalla del celular olvidando así por donde transita o con quien se cruza. Esta adicción es ahora una de las principales causas de atropellos de autos a personas en el mundo ya que las personas cruzan la calle sin mirar los semáforos, lo que está obligando a tomar medidas a las autoridades de diferentes ciudades en el mundo, una de ellas es la instalación de semáforos en los suelos. Algunas ciudades de Alemania, Barcelona, y Países Bajos se han unido a esta iniciativa que evitará más accidentes. Es así como en Bodegraven de Países Bajos se está probando unas bandas de luces LED colocadas en la acera, para que la luz roja o verde, sincronizada con los semáforos, alerte a los peatones que van con la cabeza inclinada mirando a sus móviles. “Se presta cada vez más atención a las redes sociales, los juegos, WhatsApp, la música, y cada vez menos al tráfico. Probablemente no podemos cambiar esta tendencia, pero sí podemos anticiparnos”, declaró el concejal Kees Oksam de Bodegraven. Si la prueba piloto en Bodegraven funciona, la empresa que los fabrica, HIG Traffic Systems, espera que se extienda a otras localidades del país.

I notice people a lot lately texting and talking on their smart phones while walking their dogs. Not too smart. It’s supposed to be bonding and playtime not just I left my leg and time to go home. People have to pay attention. All of a sudden one may need to pick up their little dog quickly or have to yank their dog’s leash. When you yank your dogs leash it could cause cervical or neck trauma which is the reason why many dogs get laryngeal paralysis. You could have choked your dog one time years ago and it may still cause laryngeal paralysis. Don’t be a jerk and jerk us doggies when you walk us. If this happens we then need surgery and I don’t like being put under anesthesia. Prong or choke collars may cause trachea cartilage damage. It’s best to use a harness especially if your dog pulls and when training a puppy to go for walks. This will definitely rule out future Laryngeal Paralysis. Some of the symptoms of Laryngeal Paralysis are a change in your dogs bark tone. It may sound hoarse, you may hear your dog gag or choke while they eat. You may think your dog snoring sounds cute but in fact it could be a sign that you should take your dog to be examined. If the larynx does not open and close right while your dog breathes and remains closed that means your dog has Laryngeal Paralysis and will require laryngeal tieback surgery. There is a risk afterwards of aspiration pneumonia. It’s best to prevent this by putting a harness on your dog and not using retractable leashes. Dogs may get neck and spine injuries. If your dog walker gets tangled in one they can get cut up pretty bad. Shock collars
are something I would not wear they can cause burns, cardiac fibrillation, and changes in heart and respiratory rates as well as behavior issues. Our dog Parents should learn that positive reward based training methods are the way to go. I want to walk briskly even if I am in a K9 Cart and cannot use my back leg. I don’t want my poor neck being jerked or shocked like I’m wearing a guillotine. This would surely cause me psychological stress. You may want to bring some treats along on your walk to lure your dog to do the right thing. Find ways to train your dog to have good manners and behavior while walking free of a shocking noose. It’s not like a person wearing a fashion statement necklace it does hurt when you yank and suddenly jerk our collars even if they are decorated with diamonds and studs. I hope I taught you something and that you won’t drag and gag your dog. Laryngeal Paralysis may also occur in older large breed dogs and sometimes although not often in puppies in breeds such as the Dalmatian, English Bulldog and Siberian Husky. It sometimes is associated with hypothyroidism. Yup Pup we dogs are very fragile beings not just a Knick Knack Paddy Whack give your dog a bone. Too bad we are considered to be property and our pet parents cannot get Obamacare or claim us as dependents. That would be a miracle. Less surrendering and suffering in shelters. Have a Happy St. Patrick’s Day and please don’t dye your pets green!

SIRENA YACHTS WORLD DEBUT AT YACHTS MIAMI BEACH
Sirena 56 Sirena 64
S
irena Yachts - the all new Sirena Marine motor-yacht brand had the world premiere of Sirena 64 and Sirena 56 at the Yacht Miami Beach show. This shipyard’s new production will compete in the modern-classic semi displacement GRP motor yacht market starting from 56 feet to 100+ft. The first two models, the 64 and the smaller 56 were designed by two of the best designers on the international scene: Frers Naval Architecture & Engineering for naval architecture exterior design and engineering and Spadolini Design Studio for interior design. The main features of the all-new Sirena 64 motor-yacht are: - Unparalleled exterior and interior spaces and comfortable livability - Fuel and water capacity designed to really offer “real” Long Range cruises - Consumption efficiency (20% more efficient than direct competitors) - Class A design gives high seaworthiness at all sea conditions and efficient hull guarantees max. high speeds NAVAL ARCHITECTURE OVERVIEW “For Sirena 64” - says German Frers in charge of the naval architecture exterior design and engineering- “there are three optional interior layouts of generous volume for serious world family cruising in great comfort including large glass windows for a good view to the sea and plenty of natural light. The hull design was developed in depth, including testing of three families of models at the Wolfson Unit towing tank facility in Southampton (UK). In addition, sea keeping tests were conducted on a self propelled 1/3 scale model of the hull”.
It’s a pleasant, sea conscious, low drag canoe body capable of running at high speeds or cruising in semi-displacement, low fuel consumption mode. The hull stability is well matched to the needs of the gyroscopic stabilizers to insure cruising or anchoring in great comfort. 82 | March 2017 | www.holalatinosnews.com
EXTERIORS OVERVIEW The first model of the range is Sirena 64 that, compared to others of similar size, features greater fuel and water capacity together with a 2 x CAT C12.9 – 850Hp that have higher maximum speeds up to 27 knots. The shipyard will provide the option of more powerful engines as well. Sirena 64 is characterized by a 38sqm flybridge where owners can enjoy the amazing sea view and breathe clean air. The retractable hardtop lets owners/guests enjoy the flybridge even during difficult sun hours. The exterior area of Sirena Yacht 64 provides an 80-feet living area. Wide open view of the vast seascape fills the enormous living space of the boat. The main features inside are a spacious main deck of approx. 52 sqm and larger cabins in the category. The master room in particular, with approx. 24 sqm, has the biggest suite on the market, both in term of surface and volumes. It has a full beam bathroom with separate washroom, toilet and shower areas.
