Social media marketing is a great tool for business development. The Internet has changed the way we do almost everything. Social media is more than merely a place for people to be social. It is a place for everything from breaking news to pop culture and social commentary. If you thought that social media only had recreational applications, think again. Social media is now a go-to destination for many brands due to its ease of use and ability to connect new people with similar interests.
Back in the day, if someone wanted to search for information, there were only a few places to turn. If you were looking for information, you'd likely have to seek out an encyclopedia or visit a library for help. Looking for a business likely involved consulting a phone book or sifting through newspaper advertisements or even business cards. Now, all of that information can be found in a single place - the Internet. The web has fundamentally changed how information is shared and discovered, so it's important that your business is easily found online. If customers are searching for everything from recipes to the address of their favourite store online, it's important that your brand is found there too.
Social media, and the Internet at large, are fuelled by content. Whether in the form of a tweet, a photo, blog post or something else entirely, content is what makes the web go round. In order to stay top of mind with current and prospective customers alike, quality content creation is the way to come out on top .
That's where we come in - we're all about the digital space. We create content for your website so that you can attract the customers you want and generate leads. If you want to grow your business, call us today! Social Media Marketing Services in Winnipeg MB |LeadCentral call 1 (888) 924-7878.

Is Chris Evans really hanging up the shield?
When Chris Evans posted an emotional farewell to Captain America and the Marvel Cinematic Universe on his final day shooting Avengers 4, it seemed like his time with the character had come to an end.
"Officially wrapped on Avengers 4. It was an emotional day to say the least. Playing this role over the last 8 years has been an honor," he wrote. "To everyone in front of the camera, behind the camera, and in the audience, thank you for the memories! Eternally grateful."
Along with that, he'd more or less confirmed to The New York Times in May that he'd be hanging up his red, white, and blue shield.
But, in a new interview with the Associated Press, Joe Russo, who is directing Avengers 4 alongside his brother, said these statements aren't quite what they seem.
Now, why would it be more emotional for Evans than for the directors? While on the surface, it seems like Russo is talking about Evans returning to play Captain America, but there might be something else going on here. As we know from the comics, Steve Rogers isn't the only man to take the mantle of Captain America. Many fans believe that Sebastian Stan's Bucky Barnes and Anthony Mackie's Falcon would both be worthy of picking up the shield.
So, it's possible that here, Russo could be explaining that it's emotional for Evans because he's done with the character, but for the directors, Captain America may not be done yet.


Hey I'm using LibreOffice on Ubuntu 14.04. I am trying to figure out how to prioritize or apply one conditional formatting after another.
For example, I have one rule that adds a background color to every odd number row in my worksheet. I also have a rule that says any blank cell within a set of columns apply a red background color. The problem is the odd number highlighting happens to applied later so only the white rows have the red background color applied.
I think I have got it now... but it's not quite the solution I wanted. I guess libreoffice prioritizes the rules in the order you add them.
So I created 1 rule for the red background blank cells first and then the grey background for the odd rows second. Works for now I just wish there was an easier way to prioritize rules over each other with overlapping ranges.

The Elliance team recently partnered with Manchester Business School's Miami Center to market its unique global MBA program. Manchester Business School is a prestigious brand in the world of business education. Working with this global client has helped us appreciate some of the changing trends in the higher education world, including the enormous increase in the international student population in the US over the past few years.
At Elliance, we started noticing this trend in our own Analytics reports a few years ago. The initial indicator was an increase in search traffic from 'international student enrollment' and 'international recruitment' related phrases. To see how demand for 'international student enrollment' has changed over time, we used Ngram Viewer to chart out the mentions for this topic. In the chart below, we can see the trend appearing around the seventies and then really taking off in the late eighties and nineties.
More proof is evident in a recent Open Doors report on International Educational Exchange, which found an increase of 6% in international student enrollment over the previous year, to a record high in 2011/12. Another amazing finding in the report which really stood out is that most of these students coming to the US are paying for their education themselves rather than relying on college funded aid. Findings show that 64% of international students rely primarily on personal and family funds to pay for their education. As a result, international students contributed over $22 billion dollars to the US economy in 2011.
Part of the reason for these increasing stats is the growing number of US universities opening campuses abroad, thus increasing exposure to American higher education. For example, Carnegie Mellon University offers over a dozen degree programs outside the United States. Hult Business School calls itself the "most international business school" with campuses in US, London, Dubai and Sao Paulo. This international multi-campus strategy is not limited to US universities, but has become a global phenomenon with Australian and UK universities also opening campuses in other countries. Manchester Business School is actually one of the few with seven different global centers. However, the US still remains the top country for international students seeking higher education.
According to the Open Doors report, international students coming to the US are from China, India and South Korea. This is evident from another Wall Street Journal article which provides enrollment data to back up the increase in Chinese students to US business schools and specialized programs. Apart from these top three countries, students are coming from many other places in Asia and the Middle East. This influx of students has started to drive recruitment efforts by universities and the government to find opportunities in other Asian countries.
International student enrollment in the US is still pretty low at less than 4% of total US higher education enrollment. Only 5% of US institutions are hosting 66% of international students, with California and New York being the top states hosting 27% of the total. This is the time for smart institutions to take advantage of these opportunities — to gain a competitive edge for their own institution while benefiting the US economy and their students at the same time.


A Texas security guard is out of a job after she reportedly recorded a police officer as he struggled to arrest a teen suspect possibly involved in an earlier shooting.
"As a security guard you go through training, you wear a uniform, you wear a badge, she should absolutely be ashamed that she didn't even call 911," Gamaldi said.
KHOU reported that officers pulled Davon Miller, 17, over on Rankin Road Monday evening. Miller was wanted in connection with a shooting when he allegedly began resisting as the arresting officer tried to put him in handcuffs.
Houston police alleged that Miller had reached for the officer's holster, leading the officer to push his hand away.
Footage caught a bystander at a nearby gas station telling Miller to "stop resisting" and "it's not worth your life." Meanwhile, Miller is seen fighting the officer and grabbing his face—all while the security guard records behind them.
The security guard, who reportedly exited a car behind the police cruiser, is seen circling the chaotic scene with her cell phone in tow.
'Stop f*****g filming and help me!' the officer is heard saying to the guard.
A civilian ultimately helped the officer take the teen into custody. Someone else had recorded the encounter and posted it on Facebook, leading to the security guard's arrest.
"He had a pistol in his car that his girlfriend actually wrapped in a towel and threw it in the bushes while our officer [was] fighting with him," Gamaldi revealed, according to the Daily Mail.
Miller was charged with disarming a police officer and is facing an aggravated assault with a deadly weapon charge. Following public outrage, KHOU reported that a judge increased his bond from $1,000 to $50,000.


Multi-mono netting was introduced in 1975 as a softer alternative to single strand mono nets. Multi mono (as the name suggests) is simply a collection of several strands of mono cord. By using between 4 to 12 strands of thin mono cord, the result is a softer to handle netting, whilst maintaining high strength and usability. For use in NSW, multi mono nets must have a minimum of 7 strands.
0.5 x 8 (refers to 8 strands of 0.5 gauge line) or 1.5 x 4 (4 strands of thicker 1.5 line).
Haverford stocks multimono in a range from 0.5 x 8 through to 1.5 x 20, and in mesh sizes from 3/4" to 14".
All Double Diamond multi-mono netting is of the highest quality and comes double knotted, selvaged and UV treated. Multi mono nets are available in various colours including smokey grey, clear and light green. Multi-mono, as with mono netting , is primarily used by professional fishermen (gill nets etc) . However, it is also commonly found in recreational cast nets, bait nets and even as a decorative netting.
Multi mono netting is measured stretched depth wise and is only available as a full bundle purchase. Haverford also happily accepts requests for pre-hung nets with floats, rope and leads attached. Multi mono is also very popular with fishermen in the Pacific Islands.
Special orders are happily taken subject to minimum quantities and availability.
Below is a guide to the multi-mono netting we currently stock. If you require a size not listed below please contact us, as stock not listed here may now be available.

We Both Faced This Uprootedness Together: Shah Rukh Khan's Most Candid Interview On Wife Gauri Khan
Posted on July 21, 2017 by Fusia in Feel the Vibe
Shah Rukh Khan on completing 25 years in the industry with wife Gauri by his side.
Shah Rukh Khan has completed 25 years in the film industry. His debut movie, Deewana, released in 1992. The actor also celebrated his 25th wedding anniversary last year. It's half a lifetime of togetherness with films and wife Gauri. SRK recalls, "I shifted to Mumbai the day I got married." The couple spent their wedding night on a film set! From that to accepting the nature of his job to the constant spotlight on her, Gauri has been with him through the ups and downs. In this candid conversation, SRK reminisces about his last two-and-a-half decades at work and at home. Read on…
Twenty five years spent acting. What stands out?
One thing that stands out for me is that these 25-26 years happened very fast, yaar. It feels like I've been in Mumbai only for about two-three years. It does not seem like 25 years. I think I got stuck in time. When you see your children all grown up… It's very shocking, but I really feel like I have been here for a very little time. When people question the fact that I am doing the same thing — I feel odd. I am working with young actresses so I am also young (laughs). On Twitter, people were putting out posters of all my films from the last 25 years. I don't even know how many films I have done. There is a strange sense that so much time has passed, so fast. I feel like it was yesterday.
Have you finally watched your first film, Deewana?
I haven't seen the film even today. Not out of ego, but I watch new films (smiles). Just after Deewana, I was in Mehboob studios shooting for King Uncle and Rakeshji (Roshan) told me, 'You have become a big star'. I was passing by Salman's house and Salim Uncle told me, 'Your film has worked, you will become a star'. I came home and told Gauri the film has worked and she just said, 'It's good'. Now you get to know the box-office numbers even before the release of the film.
You don't take criticism seriously…
(Cuts in) I don't take the praise seriously either. When people call me the coolest, I don't believe it. You have to disregard criticism, too.
Do you remember the first time you read something horrible about you?
There was a journalist who said that I was pathetic in Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman. But I've had worse before and after that too. And it will continue to be so. It's not important what people think of you, what's more important is what you think of yourself. And not in terms, 'Oh, I'm great'. But if you know your grain and your bone, it doesn't matter. I have written it in my book. That you bury your bone, take it out, gnaw at it and then keep it back again, it's your bone. So, if you know what stuff you're made of, how does it matter what others say? Having said that, if I've lost a race, I would like to win it back. Not because you criticised me for losing the last race — and it's also not because you are praising me for running it again — but it's because I want to do it. I want to do sh*t because I tell myself to. I'm not doing it to show anyone. I don't think Usain Bolt has won 100 gold medals because his neighbour told him that he doesn't run fast enough. Maybe he lost a race when he was young and he wanted to win a race. And he has not stopped winning races.
Gauri has been in this race with you. You spent your wedding night on a film set. Was she really okay with it?
Moving to Mumbai was a radical change for us. Not only for her, for me too. Not for any other reason but because we were uprooted from the city that we were born and brought up in and suddenly put into a new world — that was so different from anything real. I think Gauri and I, both, dealt with it. There were days where I would be explaining to her things that I didn't understand. There were days when she would stand by me and say, 'Okay, this is how it's gonna be. Let's make the best of it'. But I think within the first two-three years, the fact that we both faced this uprootedness together, in a world we didn't belong to, kind of got us to understand what space we are going to live our lives through. Because somewhere deep down inside, we all want life to be nice and happy. And for as long as possible. Realistically speaking, we didn't think I'll become such a big star because we didn't know the magnitude of stardom that can be achieved here.
Are you and Gauri happy and content with how life turned out to be?
Just recently, when we (Gauri and he) were sitting and chatting with our children next to us, it seemed like a dream. We both genuinely believe that we had been living a dream for 25-26 years. I was married the day I came here and it's been a good dream. A lovely dream, which we are happy about. Also, my kids have been brought up in a space where they accept the fact that my life belongs to the world. I think my wife and my sister too believe that. But there's a private part of me, which the world doesn't know at all. They enjoy that part. They have taken that part to heart. They feel, that 'okay, this part is totally ours and to be honest, they aren't involved with the other part of my life at all. They are like, 'You are happy doing it. So do it'. They keep asking about my well-being, they become a little concerned when I'm on an outdoor for 40 days, missing home and AbRam. So he will be sent there. They take care of me publicly. Privately, what belongs to them, they know I don't share that with anyone else.
When you both moved to Mumbai, did Gauri lay any conditions for you?
No, there were no conditions at all. I told her that we'll take it year by year. I will do films and see where we head from there. We didn't even know what a hit or flop film was, actually. Then I worked and we started looking for a house. Then, we collectively bought a house and one thing just led to another. We haven't just stopped rolling. It feels like we are rolling down a hill inside a zorb. And it's been a great time — sometimes, it's overwhelming, sometimes it's scary and even bumpy and strange. Our life's been like that. You get out of it and you might say I'll never do it, but you do it again. (Smiles) It's like a skydiving kind of a trip. But it's been a good dream overall.
How does your family react to your films? Your favourite film is Kabhi Haa Kabhi Naa. What's theirs?
They know me well, so they know that most of the stuff that I do on screen is most unlike me. So, my family doesn't have any adherence to that. They aren't like 'Wow'. Of course, if I do a good film, which they have liked me in, they will come and say something sweet. But the maximum my kids or my wife have told me, in terms of praises for my films, is 'You look good in that film'. It doesn't mean physically. I have never had a bigger praise than that. Neither have I expected. If they say something else, I will know they don't mean it! (Laughs)
If you had to list down the best memories or moments of your life, which ones would you pick?
Each one has been different, but can be counted as one — the birth of my three children. Each had a different story to it. At different stages of my life. So, those have been really special. Like before Aryan, there were some miscarriages but then when he was born, a couple of days were difficult. Suhana was a girl so that was exciting, as Gauri and I, both of us always wanted a girl first. But it happened second. Gauri was very keen that the kids look like me. First thing she asked me after her delivery was, 'Does she look like you?'. And Suhana had a dimple so yeah of course, she looked like me. That was interesting. Then much later in life, we started feeling there was a space for a third child so AbRam came. They have been high points of my life for sure. In my career, I would call Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge and Kuch Kuch Hota Hai the biggest highs and most memorable films.
Because it was with a set of friends. Karan, Adi and me — we were very close even then. I remember the first day we saw DDLJ, it was Gauri's birthday. We had this great party at Mannat, that too when we had not taken over the house. We had no electricity in the house, so Karan and Adi put up candles. That was sweet. So all those bits and pieces are nice moments. Physically, I think Madame Tussauds was nice. There have also been some personal ones at home. Sometimes, even sitting and chatting with kids too can be beautiful. When we get to know they are grown-ups, their problems, their happinesses. I think there's a nice event everyday at home when we all are together.
You had a rather humble upbringing but your kids have everything….
(cuts in) No, not at all. My children have been brought up very humbly. I know most of the people don't get to spend time with my children and they should not. It's not their world. But my kids have no different upbringing than what I had. Upbringing is not the house you live in. My upbringing was beautiful, in spite of living in a house that was the size of a matchbox. My kids' upbringing is as beautiful despite the fact that they live in a house which is as big as Taj Mahal. We (my sister and I) had a hugely poverty-stricken upbringing, but it never affected us. The house doesn't matter, the riches don't count. Upbringing has got to do a lot with how your parents emote with you, say things to you and your relationship with them. It has nothing to do with the situations and circumstances or well being or not well being.
Your autobiography was titled 20 Years A Decade. Will you change the title now that it's over 25 years?
Just like Jab Harry Met Sejal, the title will be the last thing to come. (Laughs) Let me just finish the damned thing first. It's been 25 years now, so my book is 15 years overdue. Actually, maybe the book should never be complete. Till good things keep happening to me, I will keep including and adding them to the book. So, I hope this book never ends. And I keep writing it so that good things happen to me. Having said that, there will come a time when somebody will tell me to end it. And I will end it.

The Anaheim Ducks recalled defenseman Luca Sbisa from his long-term injury conditioning loan to the Norfolk Admirals of the American Hockey League on Sunday. Sbisa, who has yet to play an NHL game this season due to an ankle injury, remains on long-term injured reserve.
The Ducks also recalled center Rickard Rakell from Norfolk and reassigned center Peter Holland. Rakell has six points (four goals, two assists) with six penalty minutes in 11 games for the Admirals, and co-led the team in scoring, goals and appearances. The youngest player to appear in a game for the Ducks (19 years, eight months, 14 days), Rakell was assigned to Norfolk on Oct. 31.
Holland was 1-0-1 in four games with Anaheim. He scored the team's second goal of his season debut Oct. 27, a 4-3 win against the Columbus Blue Jackets. He's 3-1-4 in five games for the Admirals.

      # authenticates with the openid service provider. This url should point
      # to where Rack::Auth::OpenID is mounted. If <tt>:return_to</tt> is not
      # provided, return_to will be the current url which allows flexibility
      # with caveats.
      #
      # <tt>:session_key</tt> defines the key to the session hash in the env.
      # It defaults to 'rack.session'.
      #
      # <tt>:openid_param</tt> defines at what key in the request parameters to
      # find the identifier to resolve. As per the 2.0 spec, the default is
      # 'openid_identifier'.
      #
      # <tt>:store</tt> defined what OpenID Store to use for persistant
      # information. By default a Store::Memory will be used.
      #
      # <tt>:immediate</tt> as true will make initial requests to be of an
      # immediate type. This is false by default. See OpenID specification
      # documentation.
      #
      # <tt>:extensions</tt> should be a hash of openid extension
      # implementations. The key should be the extension main module, the value
      # should be an array of arguments for extension::Request.new.
      # The hash is iterated over and passed to #add_extension for processing.
      # Please see #add_extension for further documentation.
      #
      # == Examples
      #
      #   simple_oid = OpenID.new('http://mysite.com/')
      #
      #   return_oid = OpenID.new('http://mysite.com/', {
      #     :return_to => 'http://mysite.com/openid'
      #   })
      #
      #   complex_oid = OpenID.new('http://mysite.com/',
      #     :immediate => true,
      #     :extensions => {
      #       ::OpenID::SReg => [['email'],['nickname']]
      #     }
      #   )
      #
      # = Advanced
      #
      # Most of the functionality of this library is encapsulated such that
      # expansion and overriding functions isn't difficult nor tricky.
      # Alternately, to avoid opening up singleton objects or subclassing, a
      # wrapper rack middleware can be composed to act upon Auth::OpenID's
      # responses. See #check and #finish for locations of pertinent data.
      #
      # == Responses
      #
      # To change the responses that Auth::OpenID returns, override the methods
      # #redirect, #bad_request, #unauthorized, #access_denied, and
      # #foreign_server_failure.
      #
      # Additionally #confirm_post_params is used when the URI would exceed
      # length limits on a GET request when doing the initial verification
      # request.
      #
      # == Processing
      #
      # To change methods of processing completed transactions, override the
      # methods #success, #setup_needed, #cancel, and #failure. Please ensure
      # the returned object is a rack compatible response.
      #
      # The first argument is an OpenID::Response, the second is a
      # Rack::Request of the current request, the last is the hash used in
      # ruby-openid handling, which can be found manually at
      # env['rack.session'][:openid].
      #
      # This is useful if you wanted to expand the processing done, such as
      # setting up user accounts.
      #
      #   oid_app = Rack::Auth::OpenID.new realm, :return_to => return_to
      #   def oid_app.success oid, request, session

Daffy's Inn Trouble
File:Daffys inn.jpg
Daffy's Inn Trouble is a 1961 Warner Bros. Looney Tunes theatrical cartoon starring Daffy Duck and Porky Pig. This cartoon short is directed by Robert McKimson and written by David Detiege
2 Censorship
3 Availability
Summary[edit]
Daffy Duck and Porky Pig work in the hotel business on the western frontier. At the start of the cartoon we see Daffy sweeping the floor, and exclaiming his dissatisfaction for his job ('Sweep. Sweep. Sweep. All day long. What a job for a grown duck with my IQ'). When Porky calls Daffy over, and gives him a new broom as a present, Daffy throws his hat on the floor in disgust and quits.
Daffy then proceeds to build his own hotel business directly across the way from Porky. Porky looks on, exclaiming all that because he gave Daffy a present. Daffy does everything he can to persuade business to his new establishment, hanging signs reading 'Free Lunch', 'Free TV', and 'Free Paid Stamps'. After Porky wishes Daffy luck, he spots a customer whom he hastily invites to his newly built establishment. Upon his arrival to the hotel, Daffy tries to take the gentleman's order, but is instead robbed.
File:Daffys-Inn-1.JPG
The Robber
Despite Daffy's many attempts at wooing customers with his free advertisements, Porky's establishment is receiving all the business. Daffy wonders what Porky has that he doesn't, so he wanders over to take a peek. Daffy sees a (live action) full establishment with dancing girls ('So that's his game. Well, I'll fight fire with fire'). Upon this revelation, we see Daffy back at his hotel dressed up as a girl. Despite his attempt, the customer's see through the phony disguise and throw tomatoes at him. (It doesn't help that Daffy's record player starts skipping.) Daffy then attempts to join forces with Porky and asks him to be partners. When Porky replies by telling Daffy he has all the business he needs, Daffy shoots himself with his own gun, and then begins his attempts at destroying Porky's business.
First, Daffy tries to drop a boulder off a cliff onto Porky's hotel. It backfires when the boulder misses, bounces, and crushes Daffy's hotel, to which we see Daffy's head change to resemble a donkey, and he makes a he-haw noise. Daffy then decides to dress up like a woman, and places explosives under the floor boards in Porky's hotel, to which they blow up and we see that Porky has struck oil. We then see that Porky's hotel is destroyed (as it was on top of the oil gusher) and closed, with a sign posted reading 'moved to a new location'. Upon the panning of the camera, we see his new and improved 5 star hotel, in which Daffy now works for Porky again. Porky offers Daffy the chance to 'clean up', and gives him his own office. When he opens the door to his office, several brooms and mops fall out of the closet, to which Daffy picks up a 'janitor' hat and puts it on, muttering, "You know, I'll bet if he put his mind to it, he could be positively obnoxious."
The scene where Daffy tries to make a deal with Porky over being partners at the hotel (which ends with Daffy threatening to shoot Porky and ends up shooting himself with his own gun) was cut when shown on Cartoon Network (until 2004; CN has aired it uncut since), TNT and the former WB! Channel While WB used a fake black-out after the part where Daffy tries to get the gun from his holster, TNT and Cartoon Network used a fake dissolve to the next scene (where Daffy uses a boulder to crush Porky's hotel) after Daffy says, "So, are we partners?" and Porky says, "N-n-no" [1].

Have you ever wonder what the big fuss behind the scenes?
Make-up! I am not a big fan of putting make up neither I am an expert on that nor did I go to school to learn how to do it. I can place a veneer on one tooth for thirty minutes and Walla!
To apply makeup and look good in the picture is different..it took me an hour for a simple make up. I always follow the KISS (keep it super simple) principles. Especially with ladies beyond fifty, a simple dark brown eye liner, mascara and a touch of lipstick will do in most of the regular days. Evening affair, i prefer to have a little boldness, a darker eye shadow and black eyeliner, mascara and a red lips. I like people to see their enhanced beauty not the make up.
Accessories…yes! To find earrings, necklace etc. that will go with the dress is also time-consuming, unless you have a bunch in your drawers to select with, otherwise improvise is the key! Mix and match will do! A simple top shirt with a little of scarf will do a trick.
Shoes yes! shoes will do great even though your pictorial is only half body, it will position your shoulder and straighten your back.
The interview is always fun! It's interesting to note, ladies beyond fifty still discovering things for themselves, simple questions that sometimes you are surprise how to answer it because you haven't thought about it yet. Sometimes you learn from the questions itself rather than the answer.Try to ask yourself too, in this way, you will appreciate the beauty within, discover how you act and will react in certain questions.
The photo shoots…i love it! the pose, the glamour, the experience of being a part of art photography, how the lighting affects the outcome of the photos is interesting! It may seem simple but the "it' factor is undeniable. To me, photography is an art of observation, anyone can take photos but the art of doing it, the art of taking the angle and the outcome will speaks for itself.
Believe it or not, this is taking my stress out, I am doing something that both of my sons and their friends are enjoying too (hope so:-), keeping my fingers crossed). I also enjoy the company and the art of practicing make over he he he its make up over not smile make over.
oh well! I am on my third interview, got to make an appointment for pictorial.

It is highly recommended to purchase cheap Register.com hosting SSL certificate from Godaddy instead from a web host reseller site if you are starting out on your online business and you want to save a little extra money. SSL certificates are a must if you are into processing sensitive information from your online site like credit card payments and other personal information. SSL refers to Secure Socket Layer which actually encrypts information between consumers' PC and the server in order to ensure secured online transactions.

La Tomatina Festival – an International Tomato Battle.
Every year on the last Wednesday of August, one of the Spanish town in Valencia turns into a bloody red battlefield. Notwithstanding, this battle is very cheerful because the weapons are tomatoes! Of course, we are talking here about La Tomatina festival (La Tomatina de Buñol), which is held during the week of the festivities of Buñol.
The history of this international festival is quite accidental. It all started in 1945 when the locals were participating in the Giants and Big-Heads figures parade (el desfile de gigantes y cabezudos) and between youths a struggle came about. As fate would have it, there was a market stall with tomatoes and without thinking the tomatoes were used to pelt each other. This is how the first battle of tomatoes took place on the Plaza del Pueblo. Over time, this became a tradition, despite initial bans by city authorities. In 1957 there was even a demonstration, where local residents made a symbolic "funeral of tomato", as the expression of their protest. From that time La Tomatina Festival has become an official celebration and it is now a real tourist attraction. In 2002, the Spanish Ministry of Tourism (la Secretaría General de Turismo) acknowledged the La Tomatina Festival as Festivity of the International Tourist Interest.
Although the festival only runs for a day, preparation for this festival begins much earlier. Few tourists know, that for the purpose of this event, a special variety of tomatoes are grown, that are juicy and cheap. The whole town is absorbed in preparation for the big day. The buildings are protected by tarpaulins and the tomatoes are provided by city authorities, where on the day of the event a few trucks go inside the town. There are fire brigades, which after the battle wash the tomato sauce from the streets. Also, tourists and residents can use public showers spaced for this occasion.
The festival begins in the morning around 10 am. According to the tradition, the "tomatoes battle" technically does not begin until one of the attendees retrieves the Spanish ham that is placed at the top of the pole. This feat is not an easy task, due to the pole being greased with soap. When someone finally reaches the ham, a warning firework is shot to announce the start of the battle. The "tomato war" lasts for an hour straight and ends in the same way as it starts, by the cannon shot. The rules are clear – you can only throw tomatoes and tomatoes should be squashed before throwing them to not hurt others. You will definitely get dirty!
La Tomatina Festival each year attracts locals and tourists from all over the world, who come especially to Spain to wallow in tomato sauce just for fun. The town of Buñol for one day hosts almost all nationalities and only over 18% of all participants are Spaniards. Participation in the event is paid and requires a prior reservation.

Spanish (español) belongs to the Indo-European family of languages and it is classified as a Romance language. Of course, Spanish is the official language of Spain and even today is called Castilian (castellano, the language of the Castile region) to distinguish it from other languages spoken in Spain such as Catalan, Basque, and Galician. Spanish has official status in 21 countries, which is connected with the colonial history of Spain. Spanish is used around the globe, so it is easy to guess, that in many places the variations of this language are different from each other. Since the first Spaniards came to South America, Spanish has evolved phonetically, lexically and grammatically. Currently, Spanish is one the official language of international political and economic organizations like United Nations, Latin Union, European Union or World Trade Organization, making it the second most widely spoken language in the world and the third largest language of the internet.
