(A place where the journey is more important than the destination. Salvaged remnants of other stories, waifs and strays picked up on countless road trips, random happenstance. Life through a window.)

Pippa Middleton Spotted In Spain With Ex Boyfriend

Pippa Middleton Spotted In Spain With Ex Boyfriend

 Pippa Middleton, the sister of the recently married Kate Middleton, has been spotted spending time with her ex-boyfriend in Spain, reports People Magazine. Pippa Middleton spent the weekend in Madrid with her former University of Edinburgh roommate GEORGE PERCY.

The couple were first spotted on Friday (13th May 2011) partying with friends in the Spanish capital until 4.a.m. One day later, the 27-year-old was photographed at 'The Penthouse' club wearing a beige skirt with a black jacket and stilettos. She was reportedly also spotted at the exclusive 'Fortuny' club with "a bottle of champagne in her bag". Speculation began to intensify on Sunday (14th May 2011) when Middleton and Percy were seen rowing together in Madrid's 'Retiro Park'. Despite arriving to the Royal Wedding with the former cricket player and current financial trader ALEX LOUDON, Pippa is said to have remained "on friendly terms" with Percy, whose father is the Duke of Northumberland. Loudon reportedly stayed home in London over the weekend.
Pippa Middleton's sister Kate is thought to be on her honeymoon with Prince William in the Seychelles. The couple's specific holiday destination has been kept safely under wraps but sources suggest they are on one of the African state's 115 islands.

Saif and Deepika Are Back Once Again






he Love Aaj Kal couple, Deepika Padukone and Saif Ali Khan, is back. They will star in a film to be produced by Saif's banner Illuminati Films and will start shooting in April 2011. The film was earlier supposed to star Imran Khan in lead and was to be produced by Dinesh Vijan but as it turns out, Saif is back in the project in the capacity of both, producer and actor. The untitled project has been scripted by Imtiaz Ali (Love Aaj Kal, Jab We Met) and will be directed by Homi Adajania (Being Cyrus). It will be shot in London, Spain and Delhi.

On bringing up parallels between this film and Love Aaj Kal, director Homi Adajania says, "It's a similar space from where Love Aaj Kal left off and then it roller-coasters from there. Imtiaz has given us a hysterical and open-minded celebration of relationships that explore the various choices that life may offer... and what people are willing to surrender for love or sacrifice for friendship."

Saif admits, "I was waiting for a script as contemporary and relevant as this to come my way and it has been worth the wait. I'm very excited about this story; it is romantic, funny and has a great balance of drama and entertainment. I've wanted to do a love story with a modern sensibility and treatment and I know that Homi will give us exactly that. I'm also looking forward to my pairing with Deepika again. She has a fantastic role in this and I think she has grown impressively since Love Aaj Kal and will handle it very well."

Help End Fire Bull Torment

Please read the following story. It is true and happens often in Spain. Sign up this letter so that such torturous fun is finished.
Just over a week ago, in the town of Medinaceli in the Castilla y León region of Spain, a bull had flaming torches attached to his horns as part of El Toro Jubilo festival, a “fire bull” fiesta.
Late in the evening, the bull was roped to a post in the town square. He was held down whilst flammable materials were attached to his horns and lit.
Then, with flames leaping above his head, the bull dashed about the square tossing his head again and again, turning in one direction then the next, trying to escape the flames above his head. As the fire burned loud firecrackers exploded above the square.
It is simply not acceptable to torment an animal in this way.Please help us put an end to this terrible spectacle.
Animal suffering is never acceptable as a form of entertainment. Join us, and compassionate people from across Spain, in calling for an end to the torment of animals at these fiestas.

Animal torture and burning bulls alive



Just now I read this piece when I went to search for petitions. I feel sick that animals are being tortured in a variety of ways in this world. Anyway this is the link, which means it's not a figment of my imagination & more importantly, I don't have anything against the reputation of other countries...I'm here to highlight animal abuse.

http://animalrights.change.org/actions/view/live_bull_to_be_set_on_fire-spain-action_needed

Animal cruelty is not acceptable as entertainment or tradition in the 21st Century. Yet the Toro Jubilo annually occurs in Medinaceli, a province of Soria, Spain. Jeering mobs ~torture~ a bull with balls of burning tar or turpentine (called "pitch") attached to his horns. A bull’s horns, body and eyes are scorched. Some try to escape hours of agony by smashing into walls. While different cultures may not understand each other’s customs, all rational humans comprehend cruelty. Setting fire to a live animal — known as Toro de Fuego or “bull on fire” — is sadistic and hideous.

Animal cruelty is never acceptable in any civilized culture, giving Spain a reputation as barbarians and hinders tourism. We see it as senseless, and makes us fearful of your people and Country representing a violent and dangerous nation that derive pleasure from torture and sadism.

“I have discovered that China & Spain are really one & the same country, & it’s only ignorance that leads people to think that they’re two different nations. If you don’t believe me, then try & write ‘Spain’ & you’ll end up writing ‘China.’ Apart from all this, I’m very annoyed by an event that’s due to take place at 7 o’clock tomorrow. A strange phenomenon: the earth is going to land on the moon.”
