Plastic Bag Ban For Hurghada |
| Environmental News |
 |
|
“It’s time to break the carrier bag habit. It’s not difficult, it’s not painful, but it IS responsible. Let’s stop the talking and see some action.” Sir Stuart Rose, M&S Chief Executive
In April 2009 the governor of the Red Sea will enforce a plastic bag ban within Hurghada. After this date, local shops and supermarkets will not be able to supply free plastic shopping carrier bags to its customers.
Instead, customers will be given the opportunity to purchase a re-usable bag. The ban, which has received the full support of the council and many large business operators, will replicate successful models used in many towns throughout Europe and HEPCA’s role will be to manage the public awareness campaign to support the ban.
The ‘One Bag at a Time’ campaign will be visible throughout shops and supermarkets over the coming months and will provide education and information for all Hurghada residents. It is hoped that the ban will lead to a larger aim of cleaning up Hurghada…

South Sinai Camel Festival |
| Events |
 |
|
When: May 2009 (annual)
Where: Sharm El Sheikh
If you thought camels were just the slow-moving plodders of the animal world, think again. These hump-backed creatures actually provide some of the speediest and bumpiest racing there is, as any well-seasoned traveller unfortunate enough to have had their bones vigorously shaken will testify.
With over 250 camels from 17 different Egyptian tribes, this will be something of a large-scale event, and the races promise to be thrilling.
Though the novice camel-rider is perhaps safest merely spectating during this festival, it is without a doubt a sight to behold. If you're in Sharm El-Sheikh for some diving, it is worth surfacing to witness an equally spectacular, though slightly less serene, example of nature in action.

| Spotlight on…. Red Sea Diving |
Dive focus |

A deep dive, Ras Zaatar is located on the northern tip of the Ras Mohammed peninsula.
|
Ras Za'Atar - Ras Mohammed National Park
The reef here is similar to but more contoured than Ras Ghazlani. It is made up of a steep wall which extends very deep down to house a large variety of marine life.
Around the corner heading into Marsa Barika, the wall gives way to a sandy slope scattered with many coral bommies that create a coral garden home to a variety of glassfish, lionfish and some large Malabar groupers.
Many pelargic fish visit this area, so make sure to look out for barracuda, jacks and eagle rays as well as black-tipped sharks.
Ras Za'Atar Reef Basics: Wall diving and overhangs
Depth: 5 - >40m
Visibility: 10 - 30m

Top Tips On Being More Positive
|
“If you realized how powerful your thoughts are, you would never think a negative thought.” - Peace Pilgrim.
Never have truer words been spoken. If you wish to be happy and successful then it is vital that you develop a positive attitude as negativity breeds self-defeatist behaviour and drains any magnetism you may otherwise possess. That is why I have come up with these top tips which will help you quell negative thoughts and garner a more positive attitude to life.
Negativity causes tension and tension causes negativity, to break this circle you need to find a way to effectively work out the tension you hold. Nothing releases tension better than physical activity so try to find a form of exercise which you enjoy partaking in and do it daily. This could be joining a local sports team, going jogging or taking your dog for a brisk walk.
Another great way of releasing tension is to achieve something. Try cleaning out a room, tightening that leaking tap or re-potting a house plant. It doesn’t matter how big or small the achievement is, the feeling of accomplishment makes you feel like a winner.
Accept What You Can’t Change: We tend to dwell more on the negative past events in our lives rather than the positive ones. However no matter how much time and thought you put into it, there’s nothing you can do to change the past. All you can do is learn from any mistakes you’ve made and make use of that lesson in the future.
Similarly there are some things in the present that you cannot change. When this is true you should try to move away from the source of negativity as best you can.
Avoid Critical Thinking: You’re not perfect, I’m not perfect, and honestly we never will be because nobody is ever perfect. Critical thinking only develops a negative attitude towards yourself and others. The time you spend thinking poorly of yourself or others would be much better served coming up with ideas and solutions to aid development.
Avoid Pointless Competition: Sometimes competition can be a big driving force behind success, however rarely does competition result in a positive outlook. Instead it develops jealousy, bitterness and resentment. That is why you need to avoid pointless competition. You will find that you can actually get a lot more done, and therefore achieve more, when you co-operate with others rather than working against them.
Prepare Properly: Whenever you are properly prepared for a situation or event then it becomes a lot easier to deal with it in a positive manner. For example I run a number of websites and unfortunately there are a few rotten apples who take amusement in hacking other people’s website. If I wasn’t prepared for this and it were to happen then I would lose hundreds of hours of work and a significant revenue source, and it’d generate a lot of negativity from me. That is why I always make sure my sites are backed up in several formats, so if one of my website’s got hacked I would be easily able to undo the damage. No fuss, no muss.
Help Others: When you regularly make the effort to help others you are seen in a much more positive light by those you have helped. In turn, this means that should you find yourself in need of help there are more people who are likely to want to offer you assistance. This provides a comfort level that will allow you to be more positive as even through a period of bad luck you will have friends to fall back on.
There you have it. Six areas that you can work on to become a more positive person. It might not happen overnight but with some hard work and persistence you can become that dynamic, positive individual you always wanted to be. |
