I am looking forward to watching this movie. It has only received positive critic from the <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#CC0000;">Stockholm Film Festival.</span> I must say Lee Daniels totally sold the movie to me when he was interviewed at the SFF. One thing he said that struck me was that he said that he was surprised to see how the movie was appreciated by a white audience because he had never watched the movie with so many whites before. He went on to say that the movie was primarily produced for a black audience... and that´s why it felt awkward for him. Interesting !<br /><div><div><div><div> </div><div><br /></div><div>The movie is filled with big names Mariah Carey, Lenny Cravitz, Monique and even Oprah Winfrey has had a share in the production.</div><div><br /></div><div>Here is a trailer to work on your appetite...</div><div><br /></div><div><object width="480" height="295"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/b5FYahzVU44&hl=sv_SE&fs=1&"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/b5FYahzVU44&hl=sv_SE&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="295"></embed></object><br /></div><div>Go watch the movie, that´s if you haven´t yet!</div><div><br /></div><div>Have a nice weekend. </div></div></div></div>Emiliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11350707480687021276noreply@blogger.com30tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1915807723574787095.post-25524664993231130522010-01-21T15:57:00.005+01:002010-01-21T16:11:09.876+01:00Back from africa!Hi guys!

Has the MJ news sunk in yet? I am both chocked and sad for especially his family and children but also for the music world. He has inspired so many artists dance moves. The likes of Usher, Chris Brown, Beyoncé, Neyo and so on... The list is endless!<br /><br />However sad to say, there was a lot going on with guy, we just did not know about, right?... All the same, we will remember him for his GREAT, GREAT music. One of fav songs is "I will be there". The video sums it up for me. Enjoy it!<br /><br />Have nice weekend.<br /><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Z5O61yKkdr4&hl=sv&fs=1&color1=0xcc2550&color2=0xe87a9f"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Z5O61yKkdr4&hl=sv&fs=1&color1=0xcc2550&color2=0xe87a9f" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>Emiliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11350707480687021276noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1915807723574787095.post-25728473368332869172009-06-19T18:02:00.015+02:002009-06-19T23:22:04.794+02:00H & M finally cooperates with Jimmy ChooHi Guys!<br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiY9QCmnzhO3S0qZWbPaFctTfsvdejrSrCcYijLimc01hlDqgB0LRHEziT9T_E6CYi8BgT0m4AKXuP2W_dTzL2_3zWy7XA0JC4SvLJq23Zh3iW4a6R5ZXCfdgyCQnd2wEc50dK36KUDq10/s1600-h/jimmy+choo+collage.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiY9QCmnzhO3S0qZWbPaFctTfsvdejrSrCcYijLimc01hlDqgB0LRHEziT9T_E6CYi8BgT0m4AKXuP2W_dTzL2_3zWy7XA0JC4SvLJq23Zh3iW4a6R5ZXCfdgyCQnd2wEc50dK36KUDq10/s400/jimmy+choo+collage.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5349091425024571874" border="0" /></a><span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:78%;" >MY FAVOURITE JIMMY CHOO ACCESSORIES</span><br /></div><br />Here comes some good news for all you fashionistettes out there! 14 November is a date for you all to remember.

Finally after calling the support center in India we were able to get back on the net.<br /><br />This weekend, not much action, I was at home. One of the days though, I watching a documentary about the world`s fattest man, Manuel Uribe, and I was thinking to myself <span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 255);">"</span><span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 204, 255); font-weight: bold;">How can someone get this HUGE? </span><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 204, 255);">Al</span><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 204, 255);">most 350kg</span><span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 255); font-weight: bold;">, incredible!!!!</span><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEip27QFzKNli0TBH58vP13Ox2VChWGPKkAkV8k_ZaHas4SpR0i-iTlwGGv6D2qbqSHVBIyHnYd5LglqBuGcp50EAfhnxF7Gl1WveFw9Ccs9jzGLY9_fdr3qHyTCzLT7HN84Kxb3NAtULLA/s1600-h/manuel+uribe.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEip27QFzKNli0TBH58vP13Ox2VChWGPKkAkV8k_ZaHas4SpR0i-iTlwGGv6D2qbqSHVBIyHnYd5LglqBuGcp50EAfhnxF7Gl1WveFw9Ccs9jzGLY9_fdr3qHyTCzLT7HN84Kxb3NAtULLA/s400/manuel+uribe.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5249248015191463074" border="0" /></a><span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;font-size:78%;" >Manuel Uribe in his bed</span><br /><br /></div>...."I mean he is so big, he has not been able to get out of his bed for almost six years", they said,<br />....So big, he is in the Guinness world record for the fattest man ever known,<br />.....So big, that if he lost the weight he would also make it to the Guinness world record for The person, who has lost the most weight ever...<br /><br />Well, I was so intrigued by the fact that the people around him did not say or do a thing about his condition. I mean his family, friends, workmates, etc, I think they could see that his weight was escalating. I even blame it mostly on the doctors especially for not doing anything about it . I think it´s high time doctors actually confronted their patients about their overweight and obesity problems.<br /><br />On the brighter side of life though it was stated that Manuel Uribe is on a Low Carb diet just like the one I am on nowadays. The nice thing too is he is losing lots of weight, Nice right... So that's even more proof that the GI- low carb diet works. Yippie!!! Well, all I can say is just don´t let the weight take over your life or someone in your life, like it did for this guy... Coz it was really miserable to see!<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(204, 51, 204);">Todays diet</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);">Breakfast: Yogurt with3 sorts seeds(Sesame, linseed and psyllium)</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);">Lunch: Had no time to eat so I grabbed a Low cab, low GI chocolate bar and had 2 fruits to it</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);">Snack: Tea, tea, and a boiled egg with cavier</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);">Supper: I will have Spaghetti Bolognaise with some Soya Bean and lentil salad.</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);">Am off to the gym will work out 1 hour intensive workout...</span>Burn some fat<br /><br />Talk some more tomorrow!<br /></div>Emiliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11350707480687021276noreply@blogger.com12tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1915807723574787095.post-64671877382895702372008-09-17T22:25:00.009+02:002008-09-18T20:59:08.953+02:00Day 9 -today´s diet regime " I must eat pizza"Hallo,<br /><div style="text-align: justify;">Guys today was the worst day of all since the diet started in terms of craving.

I have said to myself, I will only weigh and measure myself only once every week. So today was the day and here is the verdict... weight: -2,5kg; waist: -0,7cm and hips: -1cm.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">Why is it so important with the waist measurements?</span><br /><br />The goal for women is less than 80 cm and for men is less than 94 cm. Fat around the waist increases the risk for Type-2 diabetes as well coronary heart diseases. Statistics show that those with waist measurements that are over 88 cm for women and over 102 cm for men, are prone to diseases. So make sure you measure yourself and see your status.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">Do not despair</span>, if you are overweight!<br />Take control, of yourself and your lifestyle. Think like this, you are most likely eating more than what your body needs and /or can burn. The best way is for you to, first do a diet plan that you will follow religiously. Eat healthy food and start training at least 30 minutes a day. That´s enough exercise for a day.Eat regular meals at specific times that is breakfast, lunch , a midday snack and supper.Remember to eat a variety of foods to get the best from all food groups.<br /><br />Take control of your health and your body with the right numbers, and you will see that you will feel better.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(204, 51, 204);">This is what I ate today:<br /></span><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(204, 51, 204);">Breakfast</span><span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);">: Yogurt with sesame seeds and tea</span><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(204, 51, 204);">Lunch:</span><span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"> Salad ( fresh: broccoli, lettuce, tomato, carrots, cabbage, red onions, and marinated chick peas) to this I had fish again</span><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(204, 51, 204);">Midday snack:</span><span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"> tea tea tea</span><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(204, 51, 204);">Supper:</span><span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"> Mashed cauliflower with pork chops</span><br /><br />Good night!<br /><br /><br /></div>Emiliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11350707480687021276noreply@blogger.com10tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1915807723574787095.post-66732967042954790472008-09-15T18:09:00.016+02:002008-09-15T23:29:57.963+02:00Sharing my favorite recipe...Hi guys, just want say thanks for the love and support. I feel so motivated to do this even more now, THANK YOU.<br />How was the weekend? Mine was fine just filled with lots of temptations though. You know everywhere I went people seemed to offer me Carbohydrates, unbelievable. Take this, was invited for a crayfish party! What is served? Potatoes, baguette, wine, crisps, sauces made with flour, you name it was all there. I actually surprised myself in a way, because I managed to remain discreet about my non-carbohydrate /-alcohol status. It all went well, no mistakes reported from my part. <br />I got a cold, so not much activity after that, was indoors the rest of the weekend, and too bad, no exercise either. That was not so good.<br /><br />Anyway, for today I want to share with you a very fancy and absolutely delicious dish of mine.

Any carb abstinence syndrome yet? Well, I have mine today but I have resisted so far. I should reward myself if I pull through which I will, I am determined.

Nightmare to the diet no pastries please, I just walked right across did not turn back. That was true temptation...but still pulled through.<br />Day 4- STILL NO CARBS... as we walked on by we see a crew of photographers and a model just outside The GUCCI Store and she was so thin and it inspired me even some more not to eat carbs.

A natural leader. An opportunist especially with the ladies. I don't think he'll actively persue any of teh ladies in there but if the opportunity presented itself, he wouldn't hesitate at all. Will get along with guys and girls equally i think. Not the most organized guy and probably won't care too much about personal hygiene either. like i said, a man's man.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Kenyan Girl</span>: Teacher's Pet. HOllier-than-thou (or at least pretend to be). Pseudo-motherly. If she can't be the most desirable (to the guys), she will try to be the most religious, or the most morally upright. It's all a farce though. She knows her way around the block.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Botswana Girl</span>: Saucy-minx. Feminist, in-your-face, bitch. I don't care how long it takes to show but these traits will eventually come out. Least likely to hook up in the house.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Angola Guy</span>: Sexually ambiguious (cue earrings on both ears). I'd keep an eye on this one if i were the guys in the house. Will not get along well with the Nigerian Guy at all. Again, it may not seem like it in the beginning but if they both stay on long enough, it will come out. Will get along better with the ladies. Happy-go-lucky. Liberal. Hippie. And probably cares a whole lot about a lot of unimportant issues.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Zimbabwe guy:</span> <span style="font-weight: bold;">I can't really tell. Not a lot of character in his face. Either comes from a very rich family or is a thief. How anyone gets so fat in a country where there is nothing to eat is a mystery to me! </span><span style="font-weight: bold;">Might leave early.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Zambia guy</span>: Annoying. Could pass for an cocaine dealer where i'm from.lol. will try too hard at everything. being cool, hooking up, winning tasks, trying to pretend he's hygienic.everything.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">South Africa Guy:</span> Serious case of SMS (small man syndrome). Extremely Annoying. He's not a fool. And he won't suffer fools either. Condescending - without necessarily having any position from which to be condescending.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Uganda Guy</span>: overall cool guy. Ladies man i bet. Self appointed peace keeper.Artsy, Fun loving, lets-make-love-not-war kinda guy.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Ghana Girl:</span> Prude. Like seriously prude. Absolutely won't hook up. **Is that a moustache i see on her?** Speaking as a ghanaian, i can bet my last dollar she's a virgin. She's from the North. Probably muslim. Trust me guys, there'll be no late-night shenanigans from this one. Motherly. Won't get along well with at least one of the other girls.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Tanzania Girl:</span> Low budget prostitute.lol..i don't care what the organizers say. they know exactly where they found this one. on the streets of bangkok or berlin.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Namibia girl:</span> Sweet-heart. lovable. likeable. very comfortable around the guys. Either that or she's the queen B herself.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Malawi girl: </span>Very smart. She's beautiful and she knows it. More mature than the others. Will be the voice of reason. Much to the annoyance of the tanzanian girl.lol."</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;">I was mostly surprised by the way K-daddy commented on the Zimbabwean guy, I mean how can you judge someone through the economic situation in the country. It´s absurd. I also disagree with K-daddy´s comments on the the other contestants as well. I mean the blog community has somewhat become a place for bullying, making personal attacks towards people and the worst of it all "IT IS ACCEPTED". Why? Well on the blog everything seems to be allowed or well you can get away with it I suppose.

He was the first tailor to stage a catwalk show in Paris. Among Boateng's many clients we find Laurence Fishburne, Samuel L. Jackson, Keanu Reeves and Mick Jagger. </div><div style="text-align: justify;" class="normal"> <p>While studying computing at Southwark College, he was introduced to cutting and designing clothes by his girlfriend at the time. Using his mother's old sewing machine, he started designing and selling clothes to his fellow students. At sixteen he sold his first collection to a menswear shop in Covent Garden, and by the time he was twenty-three he had set himself up full time in business. </p> <p> Keen to learn the best of traditional tailoring, he would find out who best stitched buttonholes, who set sleeves the best way, who made the best linings and so on, at the same time developing his own style and look. </p> <p>Ozwald sees himself as more than a tailor, and more than a designer, so he coined the term 'bespoke couturier'. He was the first Savile Row designer to open an American store when he opens his Madison Avenue boutique.</p><p>Check out some of his designs as he worked with <a href="http://images.google.se/imgres?imgurl=http://men.style.com/slideshows/mens/fashionshows/F2006MEN/GIVENCHYMEN/RUNWAY/00010f.jpg&imgrefurl=http://men.style.com/fashion/collections/F2006MEN/review/GIVENCHYMEN&h=360&w=240&sz=26&hl=sv&start=17&sig2=doC_Te2uat7GCVAi9XIbjA&um=1&usg=__jDCigwthJdbAyavPMNvXyzGTC70=&tbnid=ypIpp06C5hRKoM:&tbnh=121&tbnw=81&ei=aAu3SL3TOIXIwQG8yKiHAQ&prev=/images%3Fq%3Doswald%2Bboateng%2Bdesign%26um%3D1%26hl%3Dsv%26newwindow%3D1%26client%3Dfirefox-a%26rls%3Dorg.mozilla:en-US:official%26sa%3DN">Givenchy</a><br /></p><p style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyfAjkYzU8-4_U1IENghPNOmejEX5h2J6ytExWqbsAv-c9xCInNRQaasaKXHPpDitszxmxgYAa0XfJlLglJE-AAoNjVie_28sdhhAzhZFSO3rrGUo1nMcc78WgQb4zf4SutkDtyTDhL3Y/s1600-h/Oswald11.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px;

Besides enjoying the sun, I watched a lot of tv (cartoons) hahhahahahhaha, read a book Snabba Cash in swedish , swam at the summer house it´s near the sea, I read another book that I highly recommend to everyone <span style="font-weight: bold;">Eat, shoots and leaves </span><span>and lastly I gained at least 5 kg from all the good food I ate</span><span style="font-weight: bold;">.</span><br /><br />Unfortunately, while I was sorting the pictures on my camera, I somehow erased all the pictures .

Abrahamian said nothing to waiting reporters but whacked an aluminium barricade with his fist as he left the hall. </p> <p> "It's all politics," said Swedish coach Leo Myllari. </p> <p> Myllari did not say if he intended to lodge a formal protest over the decision by referee Jean-Marc Petoud of Switzerland, judge Lee Ronald Mackay of Canada, and mat chairman Guillermo Orestes Molina of Cuba. </p> <p> Other favourites went out in the semi-finals or earlier. Athens 96kg gold medallist Karam Gaber of Egypt failed to make it to the quarter-finals. Aleksey Mishin of Russia, who took Athens gold in the 84kg class, was beaten by Minguzzi. </p>Read more on:<br /><a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/othersports/olympics/2557320/Swedish-wrestler-Ara-Abrahamian-throws-away-medal-in-Olympic-hissy-fit.html">Telegraph</a><br /><a href="http://sports.yahoo.com/olympics/news?slug=reu-wrestling&prov=reuters&type=lgns">Yahoo</a><br /></div>Emiliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11350707480687021276noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1915807723574787095.post-51250283340242787962008-08-10T22:25:00.009+02:002008-08-12T08:58:10.176+02:002 medals to Africa so far in the Olympics<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiACecKQkks_d6E3BmNBa5wcJxYquilMfIAuP0J-kRgPfnf8uNBcW-H7y3m5pSSF2ude68h4IdQC-zl9gh60k4McwpckAHc3vHRS-4gr6x80bg0YlCYAN6jKMYd1OhIG5h5eKcXUMgAQKc/s1600-h/beijing+olympics.gif"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5232995549904795970" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; WIDTH: 120px; CURSOR: pointer; HEIGHT: 143px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiACecKQkks_d6E3BmNBa5wcJxYquilMfIAuP0J-kRgPfnf8uNBcW-H7y3m5pSSF2ude68h4IdQC-zl9gh60k4McwpckAHc3vHRS-4gr6x80bg0YlCYAN6jKMYd1OhIG5h5eKcXUMgAQKc/s320/beijing+olympics.gif" border="0" /></a>Hi guys!<br /><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"><br />I don´t know if I have mentioned this to you guys before but <strong>I <span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">love</span></span> sports</strong>. However, I must say it´s thanks to my big brother, who introduced me to the world of Sports. First it was football, then tennis and afterwards he showed all about cricket and rugby. I remember how we used to sit every Saturday afternoon and watch English Premier League, those were the days. I remember too when in mid-June how we also watched Wimbledon. We loved it! It was so much fun!<br /><br />The interest is still there for sports and I tell you it was a sport fun fare this summer.
