Feng Shui is a near science developed in ancient China. It uses techniques and methods to manage the energy that surrounds us. It augments positive chi, or sheng energy, to improve a person's good fortune and success. Also, it reduces negative chi, or sha energy, to protect a person from its harmful effects. This is a fun and interactive workshop. We'll teach the Five Elements and their Three Cycles and show you how you can use these to create great design in your home, office or business.

Pedro Almodóvar is a colorful and exuberant director who often uses Spanish beauty Penélope Cruz as his muse. The story centers on a screenwriter and former film director who has lost his sight in an automobile accident as he recounts the scandal that haunts his memory.
