Haiti leader sings with Julio Iglesias at concert

Associated Press ALTOS DE CHAVON, Dominican Republic — Haiti’s president performed a duet late Friday with Spanish DUMMY 2013; 9.347"; 13"; Black plus three; process, hometown biz crooner Julio Iglesias in a dummy; 00026397 celebrity-studded concert in the Dominican Republic to help raise money for impov- erished children. Among the attendees were Dominican fashion designer Oscar de la Renta, Venezuelan fashion designer Carolina Herrera and U.S. journalist Barbara Walters. Haitian President Michel Martelly, better known by his stage name of “Sweet Micky,” thanked Iglesias for dedicating a concert of his “1 World Tour 2012” to Haiti’s children. The proceeds will go to the Pink and White Foundation, a charity run by Martelly and his wife, Sophia. The duet represented Martelly’s first performance outside Haiti since he was elected in May 2011. He was previously known for often bawdy performances before becoming president. “I’ve been a singer my whole life, but I never thought I’d be here next to you, singing,” Martelly told Iglesias. Between laughter, jokes and hugs, the two men sang “Corazon, Corazon” in Spanish and “To all the girls I’ve loved before,” in English. Iglesias had visited Haiti following the devastating 2010 earthquake that officials say killed an estimated 300,000 people and left hun- dreds of thousands of people homeless. “That’s why the Domini- cans are here today, with love, so that your children will be taken care of,” Iglesias said. “This will show you, the love of the Dominicans for Haitians.” An estimated 5,000 people filled an open-air amphithe- ater in the Altos de Chavon.

Chef’s Corner Tim Spain Florida Wild Game Christmas

Hope you all had a won- derful holiday with your loved ones and I’ll bet some of you are glad to have the holidays behind you. I enjoyed them by spending time with my girlfriend and playing golf on Christmas morning at Sebring Golf Club, which I must say is in the best shape that I have ever seen it in. For the past two years I have had the pleasure of going to my girlfriend Robbie’s aunt and uncle’s house for what was not your typical Christmas dinner. What I mean is all the meats that we ate were harvested locally in the wild. Kurt and Darla Olsen, of Avon Park Estates, know how to host a party Florida style.
