Horoscopes for the Week of February 8- February 14, 2010

EntertainmentARIES
At work, the best thing you can do is to remain in the background. The less you say, the better your position. Luck comes to those who are willing to stay silent and allow their work to speak out for them. Push all your passion into your cause. Inspiring conversations occur between you and your friends, if you are feeling empty, connect with someone who lives a dynamic creative life. When it comes to love, this Valentines Day, you’ll need to show the softer; more vulnerable “you” to someone, this action will solidify your relationship and make it stronger. It may feel scary to open yourself up like that, but in the end, it will allow your love to understand that you have feelings too. See this as an act of courage. Poetry and balcony serenades come highly recommended by planetary forces.

No More Porno in Bars? WTF is This?

Entertainment It's too bad for people who like to watch pornographic films in bars and taverns. You can't do it in the district of Boquete anymore, thanks to a recent decree handed down by the Mayor which bans such displays in these establishments. Manolo Ruiz, the mayor of the district, said these displays are detrimental to good morals. The owners of these premises who do not comply with this new rule will be fined $500 for the first offense, and they can be fined up to $5,000 dollars for the second or subsequent offenses, and their clubs can also be closed. (Source: Mi Diario)

Editor's Comment: WTF? What the hell are you people doing up there in Boquete? Porno in bars? Really? Sit around and drink beer with your buddies while watching porno in public? That's just weird.But hey, whatever. Boquete has always been a "little different" if you know what I mean... The word "Boquete" is actually derived from an old Indian word which means "friggin' weird."

Brouhaha Over Presidential Happy-Snap

EntertainmentBy DON WINNER for Panama-Guide.com - The Panamanian press is having a field day today with president Ricardo Martinelli. Over the weekend he "summoned" the owners of the major television stations in order to ask them to self-regulate the content of the news, arguing that there is too much of an emphasis on crime and violence. Martinelli went on to criticize the popular television soap operas that are mostly from Colombia, which contain depictions of organized crime, drug trafficking, killings, murders, and good looking women with big hooters. Then this morning this happy-snap photo appeared on the cover of the "El Siglo" newspaper, showing Panamanian president Ricardo Martinelli and Vice President Juan Carlos Varela posing with two actors in those same soap operas he was criticizing. And of course although he surely posed for photos with all of the actors, they published the photo of him posing with the actors who play the parts of some of the worst and most violent offenders (within the plot and story line of the soap opera), namely Julián Arango who plays Álvaro José Pérez (a.k.a "Guadaña") and Wílber Alirio Varela who plays Milton Jiménez (a.k.a. "el Cabo") in the series. Reacting to all of this today, Ricardo Martinelli came out and said that posing with people who visit Panama is part of his job. In my humble opinion this entire cycle is and was completely unnecessary. The president should do his job to control crime, and if there is less crime then we reporters will do our jobs and report on it less. Anyway, that's what's going on, for what it's worth. And obviously, the photo credit goes to El Siglo.

60 Hookers Busted in Panama Immigration Sweep

Entertainment Some of the relatives of the women who were arrested during a raid conducted by immigration authorities at various brothels in Panama City are desperate and very annoyed. The women say their papers are in order but they are being deported to their home countries anyway. By way of protest, one of the women undressed inside of the Transitional Prison of the Immigration System. For her part the Director of Immigration, Maria Cristina Gonzalez, denied such accusations. She said the women are being deported because they do not, in fact, have their papers in order. They lack the card for "performing artists" issued to allow them to work in prostitution legally for nine months in Panama. Relatives of the detained women say they are sleeping on the floor due to overcrowding in the immigration jail. During the raid more than 60 people from different nations were arrested for not having their papers in order. (Source: TVN Noticias)

Horoscopes for the week of January 18 - January 24, 2010

EntertainmentExpect a sizzling and fun social life this week, Aries. Venus enters into friendly Aquarius, so everyone’s out to have a good time. This is an excellent time to develop friendships, and book in parties. Emotionally, you run deep, however, and it is a good idea to tap into subterranean emotional waters in order to come to terms with good fortune. Mediation, and paying attention to sleeping dreams, helps you see the signposts of good fortune. An exacting partner expects you to work hard, but do your best to appreciate your self worth. You can’t please someone who’s never happy. Instead allow your reputation to speak for itself, someone positive will eventually notice and congratulate you for your efforts.

"I think the word you're looking for is 'Gobsmacked' ... "

Entertainment By DON WINNER for Panama-Guide.com - Warning - this has nothing to do with Panama. I spent 20 years in the United States Air Force, retiring at the rank of Master Sergeant. Early in my career I was stationed at Osan Air Force Base in Korea where I worked with a unit involved in U2 operations (let's leave it at that.) Later in my career I flew on C-130's for a living and the time I spent above 20,000 feet banging along in the "Herc" was some of the most enjoyable of my entire career. However, that's nothing compared to flying in a U2, which I never had the opportunity to do. This is a link to a wonderful video sent to me by a friend with whom I used to work in Korea. To get the full effect, when you start the video hit the little "full screen" button. This truly is an amazing video.

This week you will be tempted to work extra hard, as a matter of fact, work will be a comfortable place for you to escape to, especially if you are experiencing relationship problems. Be careful though, it’s not worth it to cause long term damage when you build a wall of silence between you and a partner. You’ve got tough lessons to learn about love for the rest of this year, but these lessons will help you understand that love takes work; you got to tend the garden in order to get flowers. Patience, fair play, and perseverance will help you make the best of everything. Office affairs are troublesome deals, especially at this time, do your best to avoid getting entangled in a situation that you will later regret.

Fighting The Sale of "Married Numbers" in the Panamanian Lottery

Entertainment
Lottery Ticket Vendor
Lottery Ticket Vendor
By DON WINNER for Panama-Guide.com - If you've really been paying attention lately you might have heard people complaining about the sale of "married numbers" for Panama's National Lottery. Here's what happens. Everyone has a favorite number, and a lot of people want to buy numbers that mean something to them - most often a birthday or something like that because they think those numbers are luckier. Of course there are 99 numbers playing in the lottery but there are only 31 days in the month. Therefore, there's a higher demand for "lower" numbers (from 1 to 31) and the people selling the lottery numbers don't want to be given the "higher" numbers because they are harder to sell. The people who hand out the the tickets have been playing favorites (thanks to the payment of bribes, no doubt) so that some people get more "lower" numbers and less "higher" numbers, while others complain that they can't get any of the more popular lower numbers to sell. Then on the street they sell the numbers as "married" meaning that if you want to buy a lower number then you're required to buy a ticket with a higher number as well. The vendors do this in order to "entice" (force) the buyers to take the relatively unpopular higher numbers. And of course this practice is illegal - the lottery ticket vendors are required to simply sell the numbers they are given and they can't force anyone to buy a ticket with a higher number or place any kind of condition on the sale of a ticket. Anyway, the government is now taking steps to clean this whole thing up by more closely regulating how the numbers are issued to the sellers in the first place, and to take corrective administrative action against those sellers who try to sell "married" numbers. This might sound like a trivial little thing, but the National Lottery is incredibly important to the hundreds of thousands of Panamanians who play every week and who track this stuff like hawks. Anyway, that's what's going on. If you pick four numbers and get them right, your $1 ticket is now worth $2,000 bucks. Good luck.

Hookers Offering Free Sex As Protest

Entertainment Things are getting hot and heavy in Copenhagen ahead of the city's massive climate change conference. The city's mayor warned hotels against patronizing Danish prostitutes during the upcoming U.N. summit — but the Copenhagen hookers are reportedly striking back by offering free sex to anyone who ignores the warnings. Mayor Ritt Bjerregaard sent postcards to 160 Copenhagen hotels, urging guests and delegates to refrain from buying sex, Spiegel Online reported. The city's prostitutes have retaliated by offering free sex to anyone who brings one of the cards to an assignation. The response is being organized by the Sex Workers Interest Group (SIO), which says the mayor's move is "sheer discrimination." "Ritt Bjerregaard is abusing her position as Lord Mayor in using her power to prevent us carrying out our perfectly legal job," SIO Spokeswoman Susanne Moller told the Danish Web site Avisen.dk. "I don't understand how she can be allowed to contact people in this way."

EntertainmentAries
Professionally, this is your opportunity to make a dramatic impact, Aries. You are in a strong position. Pay attention to new opportunities, and don’t ignore good luck. Show your sense of ambition, and remain committed to success. You will need to work hard to prove yourself, but if you do, new leadership opportunities open up for you. Relationship wise, things are less sturdy, mostly because it’s very easy to lose that work/life equilibrium. Someone may feel neglected. A partner with more seniority could challenge you as well, you may not be able to move as fast as you like. Take a deep breath and find an inner quiet, try to take time out, step back so you can see the big picture. Pieces of the puzzle come together after contemplation. A creative project takes you places; this is your chance to shine.

Horoscopes for the week of November 23 - November 29, 2009

EntertainmentAries
Your need to conquer, and save the maiden (or dude) in distress overtakes you. However, it is best to look twice before leaping heroically off the cliff-- the victims you attempt to rescue may not be what or who you think. Not only that, the intended hero may not be you, or perhaps, the creature in distress needs to learn how to help themselves. Watch out for co-dependent traps. Work is good for you; your life outlook brightens if you put your heart into what you do. This is also a great time for soul searching--deep insight occurs, as you start to become aware of your own hidden motivators. A conversation with someone who resides on the other side of the planet inspires your creative side. Dare to look beyond the white picket fence. New opportunities develop, and you may find yourself open to travel beyond the usual boundaries. A friend is willing to help you out, but you got to ask for help.

Lady love challenges you. Mars and Venus square off, and for you, a creature of war and passion, this aspect is rich with opportunity. Your creative power is amplified, and you are ready to delve deep into the mysteries of love and passion. A chance encounter could turn into a long lasting relationship. Buy some sexy underwear, and play with fire. However, there is a catch here—you can’t force good fortune. Trying to make it happen is like trying to catch wind. So, let go of any sense of control, and just go with the flow of the situation. A conversation with a very wise individual opens you up, and you experience an epiphany about life.

Tensions heat up at work, and partnerships are especially vulnerable this week. Too many leaders and not enough followers causes chaos at work. The best thing you can do Aries, is to try to find out a common cause that will help everyone feel inspired and motivated. You can’t tell anyone what to do; if you try you will feel like you have to heard cats. Love is a stormy sensual thing thanks to Venus’ decent into sultry Scorpio. This means that you need to get in touch with your sexy self. Wear red, it suits you, Aries; it is your lucky colour, and the colour of Mars- the planet you share with your Scorpio cousins. Mercury in Sagittarius brings a new perspective; you start to feel hopeful about the future once more.

Entertainment By DON WINNER for Panama-Guide.com - Maybe she knew that the Great Wall of China was not in Latin America, or that the longest river in the world runs through her home country, but for whatever reason, Adriana Vasini from Venezuela has been crowned as the Latin American Queen for 2009 in Santa Cruz, Bolivia. Born in Maracaibo, Adriana Vasini dedicated her title to "Dios, my family, and the Venezuelan people." Twenty two beauty queens from throughout Latin America participated in the contest.

The Great Wall of China in Latin America? Pretty, Dumb, or Pretty Damn Dumb...

Entertainment By DON WINNER for Panama-Guide.com - File this one under "entertainment." I simply love these beauty pageants, where lovely young ladies are willing to walk out on stage wearing nothing more than a thong, high heels, and a smile - to parade in front of millions of people, with perfectly coiffed hair, professional makeup, surgically enhanced in all the right places, and looking as hot as the sun - only to demonstrate before the entire world exactly how unfathomably stupid they actually are. Last night the participants in the "Reina Hispanoamerica 2009" (Latin American Queen 2009), being held in the Bolivian city of Sucre, were all asked the same set of questions, mostly regarding the history of Latin America. Now, this program was taped last night and thus far the YouTube videos are apparently not yet available (I can't wait...) Obviously being the prettiest woman in Latin America doesn't have anything to do with being the smartest, because from among the gems that plopped down on stage last night - Christopher Columbus first set foot in America just 29 years ago in 1980 according to Melanie Mir from Spain, and the Great Wall of China is one of the Wonders of the World to be found in Latin America according to Joyce Jacobi from Panama. And who's in first place in this contest after the first round? Melanie Mir, of course. Who gives a crap about Christopher Columbus anyway - she's hot...
