Popular Gemini

Lionel Messi Born: June 24, 1987

FACTS - He was diagnosed with a growth hormone deficiency when he was 11 years old and his local club, River Plate, did not want to pay to treat it, so he moved to Spain to play for FC Barcelona.

- He won the Ballon d'Or four straight years from 2009 to 2012 and he received the Golden Ball Award after leading the Argentinian national team to the World Cup Championship game in 2014.

- When he was 25, he became the youngest player in history to score 200 goals in La Liga and in March 2012, he became the first player in Champions League history to score five goals in a single match.

GEMINI

May 21 - June 20 Tackle routine chores for the week, Gemini. Avoid anything new, novel, or complicated. Start no new projects or ventures. Instead, protect ongoing projects from delays, disruptions and mistakes, or reprise the past.

2

SCORPIO

March 21 - April 19 Your subconscious bursts to the surface, heightening your intuition. If ever a week were likely to trigger a sexual liaison, an extramarital affair, or any walk on the wild side, this would be the period. Yet in all these matters, indecision and second-guessing, delays and misunderstandings are rife until the weekend.

October 23 - November 21 The week ahead brings you the adventure of love, rather a life mate. This week will stir your juices, romantically and sensually.

You could fall into a major affair and not one that will hurt you, unless you parade it around at work.

TAURUS

November 22 - December 21 Rest, protect your health, contemplate, and stay in the background. You might be summoned to administrative, closed door, or planning sessions. Do participate, show your creative thoughts, but stop short of making promises or agreeing to begin a project.

April 20 - May 20 The week ahead brings exciting meetings, especially mid-week, when some wholesome, sweet, gregarious and sexy people surround you. Whether you're free or attached, the days lights the fires of attraction. If married, chase your mate once again. All sorts of luck and goodies are on the cards for now.

CANCER

June 21 - July 22 An old flame might return into your life this week, Cancer. Whether new or old, romance attracts you in these days, and any affair started now would burn hot, sweet and ecstatically. But if a brand-new person enters now, indecision, complications or delays will hobble love's future

LEO

July 23 - August 22 The accent for the week ahead lies on your domestic scene, property, Nature, soul and contemplation. Relax and take naps in the sun. All week, but especially mid-week, ponder where you've been and where you want to go in life.

VIRGO

SAGITTARIUS

“All sorts of luck and goodies are on the cards for now" TAURUS -

CAPRICORN

December 22 - January 19 You might meet a love prospect at a social function this week, Cap. But the timing is important, if you meet a new person before mid-week, indecision, delays and other potential difficulties, perhaps sexual or financial can stand in your way.

August 23 - September 22 Your curiosity is high, so do go exploring, research, investigate. You might start a friendly romance with a very sexy person. This will eventually crash on the rocks of necessity, but you won't regret it. If you don't want to risk your health, take some hobbies to clear your mind. Tackle chores cautiously these days. Exciting meetings are on the cards.

AQUARIUS

LIBRA

PISCES

September 23 - October 22 A former flame might return, someone with whom you had a sensual but not passionate affair. All this week health needs to be taken care. Work succeeds. Exciting strangers bring good news from afar.

January 20 - February 18 Your charisma and energy soar mid-week, so tackle the hard jobs, meet higher-ups. Ask for more money, or buy/sell but be careful about your deals. Social joys arrive as the days pass by. Be home, relax for the weekend. Your status would rise if your partner trusted you, be worthy to him or her these days.

February 19 - March 20 An old flame or ex might press you for a meeting. If you're unattached, why not meet him or her. Around the middle of the week, your charisma and energy soar. The residual feelings will surprise you.

Last week, the 20-yearold daughter of Michael Jackson, shared a picture on Instagram of herself cleaning red graffiti off Michael Jackson’s star on Hollywood Walk of Fame. Turns out this wasn’t her dad’s star, but that of an 84-year-old radio host who shares her late father’s name.

Paris’ father has a different star to mark his impact on the music industry. “I understand that there is a difference between the radio emblem and the record, but a name is a name,” wrote Paris in her caption.

Arnold van Putten

Veganism on Curaรงao 8

GOWEEKLY 25 2018 COVER STORY

Arnold states that people eat processed meat and all the stress and antibiotics that the animals take. He believes that a plant based diet seems to be the solution for many different situations. "Animals are sentient beings just like humans.

They have eyes, ears, a nose, a mouth and a heart, so they also feel."

Making veganism accessible

Experiences tend to give people a different perspective on life in general, while having a great or a small impact in one’s life.

By Jade Mambre | Photography: Uriel Seymor

Arnold van Putten, a man born and currently living in Curaçao, completed high school and college in the United States and graduated from the Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale. Later on, he went to Amsterdam, where he was a DJ, a music producer and an event manager. Around 2003, his experience of reading a book by Louise Hay, 'You Can Heal Your Life', made him conscious, meaning to be self-aware and to have knowledge of his surroundings.

That is when he started to change his way of living. Becoming a vegan 7 years ago and experiencing an inner strength programs back in 2010, both had a great influence in his life. The major switch he went through, from being a music producer, DJ and an event manager to a man who is now the owner of a juice company, did not happen overnight. It was a process; a process he is still going through.

Becoming vegan Life has different phases, so after his music phase, he realized he has another mission. Arnold saw an opportunity in the vegan market in Curaçao and in the Caribbean in general. Since 2014, he decided to

“Animals are sentient beings just like humans”

sell his self-made juices that have vitamins, minerals and nutritional values. According to Arnold, there are 3 reasons for becoming a vegan: "for health reasons, for environmental reasons and for the animals." The animals are suffering really badly.

Arnold van Putten created a platform for everything in connection to veganism, and has been organizing the Curaçao Vegan Food Fest events since 2016 and is now busy with his 7th vegan event. These events are a way to show people what their vegan options are by bringing together as many small businesses as possible. The entrée fee is Naf 10,- and they make sure that all the meals and snacks have affordable prices for everyone who would like to visit the event. Arnold believes that promoting veganism and providing more vegan products in supermarkets will make veganism accessible to more people on the island. From now on, all the events will have different themes. On June 24th, 2018 the next event, The Vegan Goods Market, will be in full swing at Hofi Cas Cora. Its focus will be agriculture, how to plant and how to make your very own vegetable garden. This upcoming event will also have an area for kids with free activities and workshops, like making fun rainbow sushi.

GOWEEKLY 25 2018 Q&A

Go Weekly

go_weekly

Raymond Chaar

Babette De Waele

Naomi Goilo

"I am a vegetarian once a week, because in my opinion, a person does not necessarily need a piece of meat 7 days a week to stay alive. There are more alternatives."

"I went vegan for love! Because I love all animals I don’t want to harm or use them in any way."

"My mom told me since I was a toddler I spat the meat out of my mouth.

It was more the texture and taste I don't like (the bones, blood vessels, cartilage and fat.) Since I can remember I never used to like meat. I did (do) love local fresh fish from Curaçao.

With my background in health (nurse and dermal clinician) and with a mom who is a Nutritionist, was I very aware about healthy nutrition. Next to that I watched allot of documentaries about food (and health), so I became more strict about what I put into my body. (vegan) Being conscious of my health, the environment, the love for animals and nature, this is why I eat green!"

Gino Jacobs

Why did you go Vegetarian or Vegan?

I decided ta adopt a more conscious approach to what food I consume. For years I've seen countless videos of how much harm is done to our animals in food production. For years I've read countless peer reviewed studies linking meat consumption to heart disease, blood pressure, diabetes and cancer. I've read about the unsustainable carbon footprint in our food industry. I've decided to cut meat for a month to merely try it out and haven't eaten a single bite of chicken or red meat ever since. My cheat meals are limited to a bit of fresh fish once in a while. I would not label myself a vegetarian or vegan, but for over a year I've made the conscious decision at every meal to pick something that is plant based. It feels great!

20

Anita Marks "The reason why I chose a vegetarian dietary pattern is because vegetarian food contributes to a good and healthy living environment.

It ensures less use of water, less deforestation and lower greenhouse gas emissions, which are responsible for climate change. In addition, I am very sensitive to certain nutrients, and when I stopped eating meat, I noticed that I immediately started to feel much better."

Amber Taams "I chose to become vegetarian because I am a huge animal lover and seeing how they were treated was horrible. We can find protein and nutrients in other sources. It is also very healthy and has a lot of health benefits. That’s always a plus!"

Q&A GOWEEKLY 25 2018

Nataniel Niles

Jennifer Van Leeuwen

"Actually I am more than just a vegan and is often refer to as an Alkaline Vegan! Because it was a Life calling followed by my own interest into a healthier life style which would benefit me and possibly others.

I am surrounded by those with health complications and it breaks my heart to see them struggle and continue to be part of this disease cycle which is still increasing in numbers due to bad dieting and false information.

Unlearn and Relearn; your life is in your own hands."

"Ever since I was a little girl there was one thing that defined me; my love and awe for animals, nature and the ocean. As the years passed and I grew up I would often have this feeling of unease when thinking about the meat on my plate, but quickly brushed it off because, well... Eating meat is considered 'normal' in our society. It is only now that I recognize this feeling for what it is, namely 'cognitive dissonance'.

Approximately 5 years ago I saw a documentary called 'Earthlings' and within 20 minutes of watching decided I did not want to partake in the horrors that I saw on screen. I realized that by paying

for meat I was in fact part of the system that is responsible for all the pain caused to these animals and the earth, so I started to identify as a vegetarian.

Last year I fully made the connection. Our meat AND dairy consumption causes immense suffering to sentient beings that experience basic emotions the same way we do (56 BILLION killed yearly), uses disproportionate amounts of land (18 times more than vegans) and livestock production is responsible for nearly 15% of global greenhouse gas emissions (even moreso than the transport industry) with global warming as a result.

Summing up: after much research I concluded that it is simply not logical to call myself an animal and nature lover and be at the core root of their destruction just for my appetite.

Vegan out of love and compassion for myself, animals and the earth."

Malishka Sharma "I became vegan when I realized the dairy industry was just as cruel as the meat industry. I was raised as a vegetarian in Curaçao and understood that the harm done to animals for meat was unnecessary. There are millions of people who thrive on a plant-based diet and do not need meat to be healthy. However, I did not know that dairy and eggs were harmful to animals. Many baby male chicks are disregarded by the industry as they cannot produce eggs. Female cows are also forced in small spaces and often have machines attached on their udders to pump milk. Based on the following unpleasant treatment of animals listed above; this influenced me to become a vegan. It is a chance to explore new ingredients and ways to cook which can be very fun. There are many vegan recipes online. There are also plenty of alternatives to milk and meat products. Give it a try and go vegan!"

Arthur Chaar “For me, it is like resistance against mass industry, health, animal suffering and bad karma.

And more compassion for all living beings.”
