Update regarding the black boxes on The Best of Marbella and Vienna blogs

2012-04-09T03:58:00.002+02:00

Dear readers,

Unfortunately, something went wrong with my Picasa Albums and Google+ and all my hard work from the last 4 years is destroyed. My sincere apologies to all of you.

I have contacted Google and they need to find a solution asap. There are many other people affected by this problem. Please check the forum https://groups.google.com/a/googleproductforums.com/forum/#!msg/picasa/9ttGjFI6GS4/bFeCL0ofJ50J and http://googledeletedmypictures.blogspot.com/

In the meantime, be careful by signing up onto Google+ and Picasa 3 or using Blogger.

I can see this situation as a sign that I need to move on and create a new webdesign for The Best of the World: http://www.thebestoftheworldinfo.com/ that is currently under construction. In the meantime, you can check the high tech, amazing tool from Talk Fusion: http://1276183.talkfusion.com/

The Starlite Gala in Marbella 2011

2011-08-06T23:25:00.018+02:00

Antonio Banderas and Eva Longoria

The Starlite Gala returns on 06 August 2011 to Marbella:

the most important, and one of the best charity events in Spain.

Almost 500 attendees, more than 40 celebrities and 300 journalists was what made the first edition of the Starlite Gala in 2010 one of the most important events in Spain. The Starlite Gala is an international platform which unites the world of Business, Celebrities and Phylanthropy hosted by Antonio Banderas and Eva Longoria. A project founded by Sandra García-Sanjuán and María Bravo whose objective is to raise funds to improve the quality of life for communities, families, and children in need.

The I Edition of the Starlite Gala which took place in 2010 had a media repercussion far more than was expected, with over 190 accredited media and an audience of over 57m in Spain. Media coverage converted into figures means 376 headlines with an economic value with more than €8m from what was published during the month of August. The valuation of international coverage exceeded 90m from published articles in the international press in the United States, United Kingdom, Italy, Russia, Malaysia, Canada, Brazil and Middle East.

The Gala was a resounding success which, by far, exceeded our objectives and all money raised was destined to the three charities and the following projects were materialized:

Carlos Alberto Madrazo school was built by Niños en Alegria Foundation, in Acapulco. The school was inaugurated at the end of 2010 with 258 children. Kindergarden Tierra y Libertad is also being built for 100 children in Pie de la Cuesta development, one of the most affected areas of Guerrero (Acapulco).

Eva Longoria's Foundation, The Eva Longoria Fund, financed 60 social integration programs for poor children and adolescents with problems of development.

Antonio Bandera's Foundation, Lagrimas y Favores, created 30 scholarships through the University of Malaga. The Foundation also channelled social aid through Caritas and financed treatment programs for the terminally ill of cancer through the Cudeca Foundation. For this reason the II Edition of the Starlite Gala is being repeated this year on 6th August with a lot more effort, enthusiasm and objectives together with Eva Longoria and Antonio Banderas.

Tribute To A Beautiful Lady by Dario Poli

2011-04-24T20:05:00.001+02:00

"Tribute To A Beautiful Lady"

Inspired by the original article from Dario Poli

Spain has been fortunate for British artist, author and composer Dario Poli, known to his contemporaries as the “Renaissance man.” For it was here that he found the inspiration to originate and produce one of his finest musical achievements “Lady X and The Power of Destiny” in a creative collaboration with Puerto Banus’s living legend Patrick Lloyd Hulme.

The musical drama, originally composed as a celebration of England’s favourite princess, based on the late Diana Princess of Wales. For the composers it became a long mystical and spiritual journey, an exploration of Diana’s enigmatic character, her emotions, her motivations, and her fascination with the phenomenon of love. Their meticulous research into every facet of her life has resulted in a work, which has great profundity and truth to life, while acknowledging the gaiety and brilliance of a beautiful, if flawed aristocrat.

The project tells of Diana’s rise and fall, her golden yet tragic plight, in a sensitive and heartfelt piece of work that will stand the test of time, much as the light of her life will transcend the generations. Two men started a project, inspired by the muse, a project that tragically turned into a mission for the truth – to capture the innocence of her life and a light that was lost but never to be forgotten.
It was first registered in Marbella with S.G.A.E before her death; a tragedy, which galvanized the composers into re-writing almost the entire work and then re-registering the work in Malaga. The financial backers brought in by Dario, were fascinated by the quality of the music and story line, supported the composers enthusiasm and ideas, and the work was then legally constituted in Holland and Ireland.

With this funding the two men approached one of Britain’s leading musical professionals, the renowned musical director – David Redston – who, after studiously appraising their story, agreed to work with them on the project and conducted the orchestra and directed the numerous superb vocalists on the recording.

The musical drama was recorded by a symphony orchestra, opera singers and including some singers from Riverdance at the famed Westland Studio Dublin. These complex recordings and rehearsals, were directed by David Redston following intensive rehearsals at RTE studios Dublin. It was produced by Richard Pine on the 11 September 2000, with Dario and Patrick in close attendance as advisors overseeing the work. It was engineered by Bob Somerville and was later mixed by David Redston and Bob Sommerville. Richard Pine: http://www.durrell-school-corfu.org/pine.htm

It is a powerful and imaginative, two-act fictional musical drama of a total 2 hrs 45 minutes duration, specifically produced by its creators, to explore the tumultuous life of Lady X, a beautiful aristocrat and her entangled loves. Drawing into focus the esoteric factor X, the irresistible power of destiny and its mysterious design, that inexorably acts throughout her life.

The drama intricately woven around her, expresses a gamut of emotions, containing a haunting sense of tragic premonition, which unfolds, as the complexity of her life and charisma is explored and skilfully brought to life, by the innovative story; the sensitive and incisive power of the music, words and musical arrangements.

The musical effect simply carries the songs from the hearts and minds of Dario Poli and Patrick Lloyd Hulme, into the heart and soul of the listener. The result of the collaboration between Dario and Patrick, David Redston, the orchestra and the vocalists is truly mesmerizing and can confidently be described as ‘touching and very beautiful’

Richard Pine wrote “…. the recording demonstrates…its emotional appeal, the immediate catchiness of its rhythms and lyrics,and the richness of the orchestral texture.” … “The jewel at the heart of the musical remains that what it had been from the outset, …a celebration of her life, beauty and demeanour.”

He continued on the CD cover of Diana - “ The musical differs from other productions in its truth to life, its deep appreciation of the circumstances which combined to bring the aristocratic girl, Lady Diana Spencer, to the point where she became Diana, Princess of Wales, and beyond it to the divorce court, to disillusion and death. The unique selling proposition of the composers is its powerful combination of singable tunes and a haunting sense of premonition.

Dario wrote; the moral of their story is simply that, “what we say and do to other people effects and shapes their lives, whether for good or bad. Therefore, each individual has his or her own personal responsibility to manage their actions towards others”. This becomes very clear in the final moments of the Opera.

The former secretary general of the UN - Mr Kofi Annan in Marbella

2011-04-06T08:54:00.012+02:00

Marbella, Costa del Sol in Spain is seen as one of the most popular tourism hotspots in the world, however, there is 'much more than a wonderful climate, glamour, luxury and famous parties.

This article is inspired by the two original articles from:
Marbella Marbella: Dario Poli:
World Conference on Climate Change and Wine and
Kofi Annan addresses the world

Over 800 participants attended the recent talk by Kofi Annan at The 3rd World Conference on Climate Change and Wine from 13-14 April in The Palacio de Congreso in Marbella. Marbella was the chosen venue by the Wine Academy of Spain to present the largest and widest selection of fine wines with an inspiring collection of speakers on the subject of climate change in the business of winemaking.

Pancho Campo MW, Kofi Annan and the mayoress of Marbella, Ángeles Muñoz

Since the end of his secretary post in the United Nations in 2006, Kofi Annan has been devoted to the protection and development of social causes all over the world. The former Secretary-General has been championing the importance of economic, social and environmental sustainability throughout his career at the United Nations. He believes this is the key to “reduce the environmental impact for future generations”.

The climate change challenge was the main focus of Mr. Annan’s speech on the first day of the III World Congress on Climate Change and Wine. Mr Annan’s conference was titled “The Global Compact: A challenge in the business word to become leaders in sustainable development” (13th of April. 18.00 h.) and was introduced by Pancho Campo MW.

The conference was directed to the Business community on the Coast and focuses on the importance of adapting to sustainable measures in order to deal with climate change. The conference was open to businessmen and the general public. After the conference there wias a 30 minute session of questions and answers with the 2001 Nobel Peace Prize winner. On the evening of April 13th, Kofi Annan and his wife joined the mayoress of Marbella, Ángeles Muñoz and attended the official dinner, that took place in La Cabane, Hotel Los Monteros. This dinner wias held in aid of the charity Vicente Ferrer Foundation.

Last November in a climate change conference in Switzerland, Mr Annan explained the impact of this phenomenon in sectors where high irrigation is needed, such as agriculture or farming: “The gradual increase in temperature is producing in increase in the seawater. This causes more floods and less frost”, which is crucial for the growth of some grape varieties. In this speech, the Secretary-General will reiterate the responsibility of businesses and individuals to address environmental challenges; undertake initiatives to promote greater environmental responsibility; protect human rights; and encourage the development and transfer of environmentally-sustainable technologies.

A report released by the Forum in May of 2009 estimated that climate change is responsible for the deaths of 300,000 people every year, with 325 million of the poorest suffering most. All its work ultimately aims to be of benefit to the most vulnerable, particularly those living in least developed countries. In an address to the World Economic Forum in 1999, he challenged business leaders to join an international initiative – the Global Compact – that would bring companies together with UN agencies, as well as labour and civil society, to promote and respect universal environmental and social principles.

This III World Congress on Climate Change and Wine (http://www.cambioclimaticoyvino.com/) will rely on professionals in this field who have already begun implementing new concepts in Spain and abroad. In order to fight climate change, Campo believes that we need to focus on two issues: one of prevention, which would aid in diminishing CO2 emissions as well as energy costs; and mitigation and adaptation directed specifically to vineyards and wineries.

The Wine Academy of Spain is a private organization founded in 2003 by Pancho Campo MW, the first Spaniard to hold the title Master of Wine. It focuses its activities on the education of wine professionals and amateurs; the international promotion of Spanish wine through its Spanish Wine Experience; the promotion of Spain as a destination for wine tourism; the analysis of the impact of climate change on the industry; and study trips to wine producing regions with the collaboration of the University of California Davis (US). It is also an Approved Programme Provider for the Wine & Spirit Education Trust (WSET), which it promulgates in Spain; has organised the internationally-acclaimed conferences Climate Change & Wine, Wine Future-Rioja ’09, and Vinoble Jerez 2010.

Algunas reflexiones por Jose Luis Hernandez, Concejal de Turismo Ayuntamiento de Marbella, despues de conferencia de Kofi Annan

"Algunas ideas que recuerdo que manejó Kofi Annan en su exposición en Marbella:

1.- Manejó un término interesante aunque fuese para un concepto viejo... el concepto de "quien contamina paga". Este concepto, al menos que yo sepa tiene 20 o 25 años de antigüedad, y se refiere a que el costo económico de la contaminación en los acuerdos internacionales, no puede ser igual para un país cuyos ciudadanos circulan en "bicicleta", que en otro país en que lo hacen en "todoterrenos" y "deportivos". El término que usó para referirse a este concepto de "quien contamina paga" fue el de "justicia climática". Me pareció una forma elocuente de designarlo.

2.- Se refirió a la importancia económica que tiene el hecho de que los empresarios identifiquen en el respeto a la naturaleza una oportunidad económica "green opportunity", no sólo en términos de sostenibilidad ambiental sino también de rentabilidad económica. La limitación de los recursos y de la capacidad de contaminación abren nuevas puertas al desarrollo de nuevas tecnologías y, por tanto, de nuevas áreas de negocio Además, el respeto a la naturaleza es algo cada vez más valorado por los consumidores que premiarán a las empresas que lo hagan adquiriendo sus productos.

3.- Habló también sobre el poder individual que tenemos cada uno de nosotros como votantes en relación al medio ambiente... votando a los políticos que desarrollen políticas de protección medioambiental y no votando a los que no lo hagan.

4.- Manifestó su apoyo implícito al cultivo de transgénicos: Para Annan es evidente que el incremento de población debe sustentarse sobre los terrenos que actualmente se destinan a la agricultura y no devastar más zonas arboladas. La única manera de conseguir alimentar a más personas con la misma superficie agrícola estriba en que la ciencia dé una respuesta a través del perfeccionamiento de los transgénicos.

5.- Energía nuclear. Dejó la responsabilidad sobre su desarrollo futuro a cada Gobierno del mundo"

Palacete Thebussem – classical elegance and modern comfort

2010-06-09T23:21:00.001+02:00

Previously featured in The Best of Marbella, Palacete Thebussem’s five unique luxury apartments are now totally complete. Contained within a magnificent historical building, this high quality project has been a labour of love for developers Steve and Lyn Breckon. Set in the historic town of Medina Sidonia on the Costa de la Luz, a little over an hour from Marbella, this gorgeous 19th century manor house has been lovingly converted for stylish modern living.

Steve and Lyn’s attention to detail has been painstaking, meaning that original features like antique doors, stonework, tiling, beams, arches, alcoves, ceilings, bay windows, rosettes, bay windows and roof tiles have been carefully restored and retained to add character to the project. However, residents will also benefit from all the modern comforts that one would expect of a contemporary home, from state-of-the-art fitted kitchens to climate control and a centralised satellite TV system.

All of the apartments measure at least 130m2 and feature an entirely separate layout, character and name: Musa, Hidalgo, Toro, Tierra and Mirador. Each residence includes underfloor heating in every room, tiled bathrooms with top quality sanitary ware and heated mirrors, fully-fitted wardrobes in all the bedrooms, double-glazed windows, modern designer kitchens complete with integrated hob, oven, dishwasher, fridge/freezer, washing machine, waste disposal and granite working surfaces.

All apartments have distinct characters; for example Mirador contains a tower room with terrace and fantastic views.

The building also includes a panoramic but private rooftop terrace with heated swimming pool and is situated on a quiet street that bears the name of the illustrious writer Mariano Pardo de Figueroa, Doctor Thebussem.

Officially inaugurated at the end of last year by the Mayor of Medina Sidonia, this structure is the perfect combination of character and modernity.

Offered with in situ maintenance servicing, the apartments at Palacete Thebussem epitomise refined style, comfort and charm in an authentically Spanish setting. These superb residences are on sale from 295.000€.

Event organiser Nick Holland said, “We are very excited about bringing the Marbella Concert Orchestra to accompany Steve at this year´s concerts in Duquesa. We are also delighted that Yazz, who very rarely performs in Spain, has agreed to join the special guest line-up. The costs incurred by bringing a live orchestra, as well as a more spectacular sound and lighting show, (Nigel Davis – Soto Events) has resulted in an increase in ticket price this year. But we are certain the sweeping improvements we have made since last year to both the content and staging of the concerts will be appreciated by the audiences and we hope this will lead to another very unique and successful event!”

Tickets, €40, will go on sale from 9th June, from Beccy´s, Monte Duquesa; Christina´s Cards, Sabinillas; Glitterati Books, Centro Diana Benavista & Anglo Wines, Sotogrande or call 697 783 942.

También estamos encantados de que Yazz, que muy rara vez se realiza en España, se ha comprometido a unirse a la invitada especial line-up. Los gastos efectuados por traer una orquesta en vivo, así como un sonido más espectacular y show de iluminación, se ha traducido en un aumento de precio del billete de este año.

Isn’t that a great thought? Unfortunately we can’t boast anything quite as amazing as the Babel fish, but we can now offer our clients a top quality translation service. Having recently joined forces with a long-established international translation agency, with offices in Manchester, and Ronda, we are confident we can fulfil all your translation needs, from any language into any other, through our professional contacts worldwide.

We guarantee a fast response to enquiries and a rapid turn-around of work. All our translations are done by native speakers and checked by a third party to ensure top quality and accuracy. We’ve all seen some hilarious translation howlers and mangled syntax, but such errors are unacceptable for professionals who wish to impress their clients. Contact us for a free quote.

Quantum Spain

During the past few weeks we’ve designed and written the content for the new Quantum Mortgages website. When a company needs to create an online profile from scratch, you would be surprised at how much work needs to be done to provide visitors with all the necessary information.

In the case of Quantum we were given the task of not only designing an attractive and functional website supported by effective SEO, but also explaining the way in which property finance works. This included creating a mortgage calculator from scratch and linking the site to the latest Euribor rates. The site also includes a blog for client information and participation, and the entire project is fully SEO optimised.

Of course, any website worth its Google position is only as good as its maintenance programme so, as with all of our web-based projects, Quantum Mortgages’ website will require regular monitoring and updating.

During the past few months we have been socialising more than ever. Earlier this year we launched our Facebook and Twitter presences but, not content with virtual networking, we have also joined the British Chamber of Commerce in Spain. Along with companies such as Lloyd’s TSB, Hackett, BT, Sotheby’s and Ernst & Young, Manifesto Design will be able to enjoy the benefits of belonging to one of the world’s ultimate business promoters.

Promote Goodwill.org

2010-04-06T19:26:00.003+02:00

Wouldn't you like to see everyone, everywhere embrace the concepts of peace and nonviolence? Okay, now prove it! What if I told you that you could promote the peacebuilding paradigm without having to leave the comfort of your own home? No signs to make, no marches to organize and attend, no speeches to make. What if you could do it from where you are sitting right now... Here's the tip... Whenever you run across content on the internet that promotes the peacebuilding ideas that you like (like this one), forward it further: submit it to Reddit or Digg, re-tweet it in Twitter, share it on Facebook, e-mail it to friends or promote it in whatever way you usually promote content you like. Most authors make this easy to do by including a "Share" link somewhere on the post.

With a little more effort, you can help shift the global conversation toward peacebuilding by commenting on articles and blog posts, letting people know about DoPeace, the campaign to create a U.S. Department of Peace, and the Youth PROMISE act.

Goodwill is a contagious and potent energy. By its means, peace can eventually be established on earth. Through its intelligently applied use the dynamics of human interaction can be positively changed in a short period of time. PromoteGoodwill.org is focused on practical methods for spreading this powerful force throughout humanity, in every region of the world. With the co-operation of men and women of goodwill across the globe this energy will stream into the hearts of people in all departments of life, affecting the change necessary to achieve peace. This is PromoteGoodwill.org's primary purpose - promoting goodwill through training and education."

The immediate spiritual problem with which all are faced, is the problem of gradually offsetting hate and initiating the new technique of trained, imaginative, creative and practical goodwill.

"Goodwill is man's first attempt to express the love of God. Its results on earth will be peace. It is so simple and practical that people fail to appreciate its potency or its scientific and dynamic affect. One person sincerely practicing goodwill in a family, can completely change its attitudes. Goodwill really practiced among groups in any nation, by political and religious parties in any nation, and among the nations of the world, can revolutionize the world". Problems of Humanity, by Alice A. Bailey

Tips on Promoting Goodwill

Below we have listed some things we all can do daily ( and do much better ) toward helping foster a greater measure of Right Human Relations with all our relationships. Whether or not you become actively involved with PromoteGoodwill.org you can help pursue this vision by Promoting Goodwill as you go about your daily affairs. Promoting Goodwill is easy and really only takes a conscious effort on our part to adjust our speech, thoughts, mannerisms and tolerances. And to approach each interactive situation with a co-operative heart...and a display of harmlessness. How many of us actually try consciously to interact each and every day with a spirit of harmlessness in our thoughts, words and actions? Thoughts are directed energy - construct ones that are positive - yes, even when it is difficult. This is what we mean by conscious effort. When we begin to try consciously to effect our every day surroundings positive things take place. Attitudes at home and work change for the better. We are not saying you are going to be perfect every day in your conscious endeavor to Promote Goodwill. What we hope to achieve is to demonstrate a greater degree of harmlessness - a greater measure of Right Human Relations through our daily activities. If you believe you are being efficient 20% of your day in your Goodwill Promotion efforts, try for 30% - 40%. This is what we are trying to accomplish here - lots of people doing their best to achieve a greater measure of harmlessness in their lives. Please read some of the thoughts listed below - they are in no particular order.

1. Don't criticize others, directly or indirectly.

2. Be less confrontational over differences.

3. Don't think bad thoughts about others - remember energy follows thought!

4. Help where you can help - make those sacrifices on behalf of others - physically, emotionally, and mentally.

5. Meet others halfway - you can do this more than you think!

6. Be less prone to argue - how many arguments are over truly stupid things?

7. Be more tolerant of other's opinions, viewpoints, beliefs, religions, national and racial cultures.

8. Don't hesitate to be supportive.

9. Don't force your will or beliefs on others - remember...just because we believe something doesn't make us right, or mean it is the only possibility, truth or answer!

10. Watch your word usage - some words just aren't necessary!

11. Negotiate business transactions with a spirit of co-operative goodwill.

12. Try and resolve disputes with your adversaries - be more understanding of the positions of others.

13. Conduct business with an attitude of giving and sharing rather than one of taking.

14. Touch others with a kind gesture for no reason.

15. Make it obvious you are a role model for the promotion of goodwill in your family, work environment and community and as a result others will want to be around you and look to you for help and support - you are contagious!

The Mind Guru: Will Smith video

2010-03-07T10:32:00.006+01:00

Amazing but true, all that we need comes to us at the right time and in the right place, especially when we trust, believe and allow it to happen.

One of my special friends from Vienna sent me an e-mail with some highly inspirational videos and links and after opening them I had no other choice but share them with the rest of the world. No matter where you are (I know at the moment we have readers from approx. 90 countries), this information may help you and if not you, then maybe someone else.

Since I was born, I always believed in doing good in the world, no matter how small and insignificant my actions may be. We always "plant seeds" that grow and develop. Writing blog articles is like planting "seeds", not knowing who will enjoy the scent of the beautiful "flowers" when they grow... The video below from Will Smith touched my heart and it is my greatest pleasure to share it with you with the wish to inspire you and motivate you as it inspired me.

I strongly believe that if I can´t help someone in some way, I am wasting my time. So my dear readers, enjoy this unusual blog article and especially the below video that also appears on the Best of Vienna blog that I just started recently.

Even though it has nothing to do with Marbella or Vienna, it is my great pleasure to introduce you to "The Mind Guru": http://themindguru.wordpress.com/2010/01/23/wills-wisdom/

The wisdom that is shared here is global and for all those people that are willing to learn, improve and make our Planet a better place...

"Not only one of my favorite actors, but also one of my biggest inspirations: Will Smith is one of the most successful people on the planet." Watch this highly inspirational video and the most important: act upon it...

The Prayer for Haiti Charity Single with Stephen Lloyd-Morgan

2010-02-22T01:34:00.022+01:00

“The Prayer for Haiti” - Charity Single

Help Us Help Haiti

For all summer events, please check:

http://www.slmlive.com/mco/

Helping Haiti - HM The Queen acknowledges Costa del Sol `Help Haiti Campaign´.

Her Majesty The Queen has sent her best wishes for the continued success of the Costa del Sol´s fundraising efforts for Haiti. A letter received from Buckingham Palace reads `Her Majesty was interested to learn that the British expatriate community in the Costa del Sol have raised over €20,000 for the Haiti Earthquake Fund... Her Majesty conveys warm good wishes to you and all concerned´.

Everyone that downloads this song will be contributing to the "rebirth" of Haiti

Shopping Cart by E-junkie

Eleven of the Costa del Sols finest singers banded together in collaboration with Rowetta on Saturday 13th February, and with just 4 days notice, and a month after the devastating earthquake, to record a charity single for Haiti at one of Europe´s top International Studios based in Marbella. Predominately widely unknown artists, and in cases raw talent; the first line and Italian duet sung by 15 year old Rebecca Tate. Banding together simply for the cause to help the people of Haiti, and on zero budget; a world away from the corporate music industry, we believe it has still resulted in a remarkable achievement.

A cover version of Céline Dion and Andrea Bocelli´s highly emotional song “The Prayer”, which won the Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song from the film Quest for Camelot in 1999; this charity version renamed “The Prayer for Haiti”. The single is initially released as an internet download only, royalty free, by kind permission of writers David Foster, Carole Bayer Sager & Andrea Bocelli.

This recording, parts sung in Italian, English and also Spanish, is a fantastic eclectic mix of singing styles, and features ITV´s X Factor finalist Rowetta, now acclaimed Tenor Stephen Lloyd-Morgan, Spain´s 15 year old WoWFactor runner-up Rebecca Tate, the equally brilliant voices of Mayte, Daniel Boland, The Unity Gospel Singers and the popular classical group Tres Divos.

Produced by Nick Holland & Stephen Lloyd-Morgan in association with Maurice Boland of Talk Radio Europe and Essential Marbella Magazine; they were inspired to record this single after the overwhelming response to Stephen & Rebecca singing The Prayer at The Gala Dinner for Haiti held at La Quinta Golf on 5th February organised by Maurice. A YouTube Video of the song also received over 500 hits in just a few days! You can view the video below:

The phenomenal generosity of so many has once again shown no bounds, allowing this single to be recorded, produced and promoted totally free. 100% of the proceeds from sales will go directly to the Ark Christian Fellowship, a part of the Child Care Ministries, which has had a presence in Haiti for over 8 years. For more information, youtube video, credits and download information please see www.slmlive.com/theprayerforhaiti

Some valuable comments from Antonia Muñoz – Alcaldesa de Manilva (Mayor of Manilva) – “The Prayer for Haiti”

“We are extremely proud and would very much like to convey our congratulations to the producers of the charity single (CD) `The Prayer for Haiti´. Resident British Expatriates from the Municipality of Manilva, Stephen Lloyd-Morgan and Nick Holland, have recorded this single in collaboration with Talk Radio Europe and Essential Marbella Magazine, to help the desperate orphans of Haiti and they hope to raise enough to build a new school. We very much commend their efforts and that of the entire expatriate community who are banding together to raise much needed funds for this worthy cause through the sale of this single(CD).” – 4th March 2010

Valuable comments from Jose Luis Hernández – Tourist Councilor Marbella Town hall regarding
“The Prayer for Haiti”

“Marbella City Council considers that the expat community is giving us an example of generosity and commitment in view of the magnitude of the devastation suffered by Haiti. Marbella can feel proud because —even in these moments of economic crisis— our society, and particularly our expat community, is giving such an evident proof of commitment with the suffering of human beings that did not have anything before the tragedy and, after it, the only thing they have is pain and hopelessness. We hope your fund raising initiative be as successful as possible. On behalf of Marbella City Council, receive our most sincere thanks and our acknowledgement for your humanitarian work.” – 4th March 2010
