I love street fairs, festivals, farmers markets, flea markets, and all good stuff. Therefore, whenever I come across one unexpectedly, I get uber joyful and I find myself skipping towards the crowded and rowdy road. I came across one near Lincoln Square, in New York City, a while back. I only walked around for about 10 minutes, but it was a blast. I picked up some bootleg designer shades for ten b

Take note of Job Fair Layout?When you first arrive at the job fair, walkabout the entire area to get a feel for the layout and where each employer is located. Make note of those employers that are conducting secondary interviews either at their booth or in another location. If there is a separate area devoted to secondary interviews, ask one of the job fair workers which employers are conducting s

Many people know the Central Valley in California is the foreclosure capital of the nation, currently.  You can go down any block and see REO properties left and right and can tell they are such by the front lawn. In this area, almost 40% of the loans that were made two years ago are in some stage of the foreclosure process.I have seen a few news articles that show that the turnout to the foreclosure workshops have been larger than expected. Having been through a foreclosure in the past, I know that this process is a very stressful situation that families are going through. The fact families are wanting to learn about how to prevent foreclosures is good, and I would strongly recommend attending one of these workshops as a consumer if you are in a situation like this.

We got started in craft fairs because Susan was photographing elders in a nursing home. She went in several times to give lectures and take some photos. The recreation department was run by a wonderful woman who loved Susan’s work. She encouraged Susan to come and be with the residents. Then she set up an opportunity for the family of the residents to hire Susan to take portraits so they would have wonderful mementos. A few people took her up on it and were delighted, but in general it seems (at least around here) there is a better market for people photographing their children and animals than photographing their elders. Sebastian in Flowers, Digital © Diane Clancy The recreation director wanted to make it up to Susan for spending all the time (and money) so she invited us to several craft fairs they have for residents and staff. Plus she is a gigantic fan of our work … so she wanted an easy chance to buy our work. Susan had taken a picture of her corgi dog and I had p

I am delighted so many people enjoyed yesterday’s post - this is a continuation. I was awoken with the furnace out back being broken again and haven’t stopped all day … so this will be quick and more tomorrow. One of the stops today was picking up the merchandise that didn’t sell at the local craft fair over the weekend. Tonight I am going to be part of a tele-conference (as a participant, not presenter) and then I get to go to bed! By the way, the little lost bubble is getting some friends here. Resolving, Digital © Diane Clancy Fairs are another way of marketing merchandise that is not selling items wholesale. Susan and I have been at numerous fairs and we have put in a lot more energy - in general - than what we have gotten out of the fairs. I think it was good experience for us … but it didn’t work well. There are many kinds of fairs … and we have gone to low-end craft fairs because they haven’t been very expensive. In general

Can this work? I wonder. And what if the model used is a girl. Even the top executives with the highest salary will go. And everyone will be looking for jobs!! I am waiting for such career fair to be launched in Malaysia soon.

In Cochabamba, the agricultural production of the valley and commerce have a special dynamic which combines social, family and “compadrazgo” (godfather) relations and which is expressed in the so called “FERIAS” (fairs) (regional or by zones). There -by the end of the XVIII century- participate the natives, farmers and people from the town (Cercado) giving place to informal economical interrelations.The true way of thinking of valley people is shown in their capability of bargaining and thus achieving a good “yapa” (something more). The CanchaIt is the main marketplace of Cochabamba, found in the south part of the city. There specially of wednesdays and saturdays, we can find the biggest variety of products: agricultural, foods, clothes, luxury, handicrafts, etc. Calatayud MarketFound near the Cancha.

Every year from April to October almost all of the cities, towns, and villages of Andalucia hold a summer fair. Although the origins, size, and duration of the events may vary, the people of Andalucia see their summer ferias as the best means by which they can collectively express their passion for the province and its popular culture; not so much celebrating it as flaunting it. Traditional costume is widely in evidence: more Sevillana dresses - long associated with flamenco dancing - are sold in the days leading up to the summer fairs than at any other time of the year. Proud, groomed and tutored horses parade along with impeccably presented carriages. Bullfights are staged. Sherry and tapas are sold from food and drink stalls. Revellers dance to live music and lend their voices to traditional songs. At the larger fairs hospitality facilities (casetas) are sponsored by families, clubs, or groups of business associates. With the exception of fairgrounds such as that of Fuengirola with

Comment: My bit for the Visit Malaysia Year 2007. Come to think of it, Malaysia has lot to offer and the weather's sunny all year round. KUALA LUMPUR: April 25 (Bernama) The Tourism Ministry is considering organising a regional travel fair in an effort to garner 35 million tourist arrivals for Malaysia by 2010, Deputy Minister Datuk Donald Lim Siang Chai said Thursday.He said it was also timely to hold a regional travel fair as there were only four major travel events at the international level."Currently, we have the ICB (International Tourism Exchange of Berlin) in Germany, WCF (World Cultural Fair) in London, CITF (China International Tourism Fair) in China and ATM (Arabian Tourism Mart) in the Middle East. So, we think it is a wise decision to have such an event here," he told reporters after launching "The Greatest Tourism Carnival 07", here.Lim said many countries, mainly European nations, benefited through such fairs, at which they not only promoted their tourism

It's the summer, and that means one thing: It's fair, festival, and carnival season.I hate fairs, festivals, and carnivals.This is the main reason -- kids run wild at these things, and bad things happen. On Sunday, a six-year-old died when he fell out of a ferris wheel:Ruben Castillo was riding alone in his gondola, which was near the top of the 100-foot Giant Wheel when he fell Sunday afternoon, authorities said. He was pronounced dead at a hospital.Gee, I don't know, maybe instead of watching from below, a parent or other adult-type figure ought to have gone with the kid to make sure he didn't climb out in mid-air. I mean, ferris wheels are dangerous. Maybe not as dangerous as being Saddam Hussein's lawyer, but still. The other reason: I get motion sickness on carnival rides. I'm okay with big permanent structures like at Disney, but the flimsy little carnival rides make me puke. Literally. Stop reading here if you get grossed out easily.Eight or nine years ago -- and yes, I wa
