Hi all!<\/p>\n

It is tough out there! And for a change I am not referring to the weather, but to the business climate or the economy. Last week I saw that a restaurant in Donnybrook (Casa Pasta) had closed while ago and I realised that Messrs Maguire, the pub on the South side near O’Connell Bridge is (obviously for a while) not called Messrs Maguire anymore. Somebody referred to it as “The pub formerly known as Messrs Maguire”. I assume it has changed ownership!? NAMA maybe?<\/p>\n

Many companies, not only the HMVs and B&Qs go through tough times, many business owners are trying hard to keep the business on the road, but many fall victim to the economic situation in the end. I want to pay tribute to two great supporters of the Dublin Event Guide, Melanie and Jukka, who ran a Computer Supply & Support business for 22 years. They did whatever possible to keep the company going, but unfortunately had to close the doors at the end of last year. They sponsored the Dublin Event Guide as one of the two main sponsors for many years and were crucial in keeping the Dublin Event Guide going. I really appreciate their help. But they didn’t just help me, you and every other Dublin Event Guide reader benefitted from their generosity as well!<\/p>\n

Many wonder what we can do to sort the economic problems and some suggest that “Buy Irish” or “Buy local” is the solution, but it isn’t that clear cut. Most of us are affected as well, we have less money available and therefore have to be more economical with it. If you can’t afford to buy at all or if “buying local” means you need to spend more money than if you buy elsewhere, we might have to do what keeps us afloat and not buy or buy where the price is the lowest. I can’t blame anyone for it!<\/p>\n

But there is also a good side to it. Many entrepreneurs are able to maintain their resourcefulness and come back stronger and better and we need that. New businesses open every day. New jobs are created and – without a doubt – Melanie and Jukka will be back again with a new and better idea. Success stories are made in tough times! So don’t let the challenges depress you, but instead look for new opportunities. There are lots of them out there!<\/p>\n

To keep the spirits up, the Dublin Event Guide (for Free Events) brings you lots of opportunities to enjoy yourself at free events and to re-discover your creativity and curiosity when you expose yourself to new experiences at free events. Share the good news with your friends and family etc tell them about the Dublin Event Guide and get them to subscribe on http:\/\/www.dublineventguide.com And also send them to join the more than 12,000 people (!!) that LIKE the Dublin Event Guide on Facebook at http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/DublinEventGuide<\/a> .<\/p>\n

I am actively looking for new sponsors to fill the gap and if you work for a company or run a company that is interested, just contact me on dublineventguide@gmail.com In the meantime you can help bridging the gap with your donation of the tiny sum of EUR 1 per month. How about a deal: You give EUR 1 per month or 25 cent per week and I will give a whopping 35 hours of my week. That way I can pay the bills and you get the Dublin Event Guide week after week. Go to http:\/\/www.perfectresults.info\/donate.htm<\/a> to help. Thanks!<\/p>\n

And continue also to help by ALWAYS using the ad links in the Dublin News Section and the ads in the Dublin Event Guides when you order goods. If you buy goods immediately after clicking on a link\/ad that you find in this e-zine\/newsletter (Groupon, LivingSocial, Amazon, Book Depository, LastMinute etc), you help the Dublin Event Guide because the company you buy from gives a small commission to the Dublin Event Guide. Use these links as often as possible it doesn’t cost you a cent and you help big time!<\/p>\n

Have an event-full week,<\/p>\n

The “Feel Good Slot” at this place in the Dublin Event Guide is to share some inspirational, motivational or thought provoking quotes, stories or video clips. You wonder why I added this section to this e-zine? If your week was great, you might not need it, but most of us had some challenging moments in the last week and this section is for the people that want to remind that despite all, life is great and it is important to be alive.<\/p>\n

For today’s Feel Good Slot, I found a quote that should speak to all of us. If you have ever tried to achieve something but gave up before reaching the goal, maybe go back OR make sure that next time you remember this:<\/p>\n

“Many of Life’s failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.” – Thomas Edison<\/p>\n

and let me add another fitting quote that is also in line with the Introduction to this week’s Dublin Event Guide:<\/p>\n

“A Pessimist sees the Difficulty in every Opportunity. An Optimist sees the Opportunity in every Difficulty.”<\/p>\n

Make a difference – or do it differently – next week! :-)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

This section is intended to provide some help in picking and choosing from the huge number of events by sharing with you what I will\/might or would do. This is not a “best of\u2026” list and if an event is not listed here, it by no means implies that the event is not interesting. Instead my “picks” are just based on my personal preferences. All events mentioned here are described in detail further down<\/em><\/p>\n

More than 166 events! Many of them are talks due to the Engineering Week and the Adult Learners Festival. But there are a few interesting ones. The Alchemist Cafe is always interesting, then you enjoy a guided tour in St. Patrick’s Cathedral for free this week, also there is a Bridge Building competition this Saturday. And on Thursday is the Night of Ideas in the Hackerspace TOG.<\/p>\n

Slightly more unusual events? Yes! But it might be exactly what you were looking for! ;-)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The Big Egg Hunt 2013<\/h2>\n
\n

From Tues 12 Feb until Easter Saturday (23 March), Dublin will become home to the biggest Easter egg hunt and street art display. It will be in aid of the Jack and Jill Foundation and is sponsored by Lily O’Brien’s.
\nOver 100 fibre glass eggs, will be “hidden” around Dublin, each one of the eggs is 75 cm high and will be decorated by well known artists. The eggs will go on display on Pancake Tuesday for 40 days and 40 nights, but the locations of the eggs will not be revealed.
\nYou have to find them! Get the family or your friends involved in the Big Egg Hunt. You only have to find 20 eggs. Each egg has a code with which you can enter the draw for a grand prize (Diamonds, chocolate factory visit for kids and a year’s supply of chocolate from Lily O’Brien’s).
\nAt the end of the Big Egg Hunt, the eggs will be auctioned for charity in aid of the Jack and Jill Foundation. The online auction will already begin on 12 February with a live auction at the Four Seasons Hotel on 23 March.
\nInteresting idea, should be fun and lets see when the first cheat sheets appear on broadsheet.ie or on boards.ie ;-) http:\/\/thebigegghunt.ie\/<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Inside Out Project<\/h2>\n

08-28 Feb<\/h3>\n

Corner of South William St and Chatham Row, Dublin 2<\/p>\n

\n

As a part of Inside Out Global Street Art Action, 8 black and white photos will appear on a wall at that location and there is a possibility that some more will appear on the opposite wall. They are from a group of photography students who are coming from different countries, backgrounds and ages and who want to highlight their differences and also similarities by participating in teh Inside Out Project. http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/events\/479414192122023<\/a><\/p>\n

The Inside Out Project is a large-scale participatory art project that transforms messages of personal identity into pieces of artistic work. Everyone is challenged to use black and white photographic portraits to discover, reveal and share the untold stories and images of people around the world. These digitally uploaded images are made into posters and sent back to the project\u2019s co-creators, for them to exhibit in their own communities. People can participate as an individual or as part of a group. Posters can be placed anywhere, from a solitary image in an office window, to a wall of an abandoned building, or in a full stadium. These exhibitions will be documented, archived and be made available online at

Progressive Film Club – Screening<\/h2>\n

New Theatre, 43 East Essex St, Temple Bar, Dublin 2<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

The film “The End of Suburbia: Oil Depletion and the Collapse of the American Dream” (2004) by Gregory Greene will be screened in the New Theatre as part of the next Progressive Film Club event. Admission is free, donations are welcome.<\/p>\n

Since the Second World War, Americans have invested much of their new-found wealth in suburbia. It promised a sense of space, affordability, family life, and \u201cupward mobility.\u201d As the population of suburban sprawl exploded over the past fifty years, so too did the suburban way of life become embedded in the American consciousness: suburbia, and all it promised, became part of the American Dream. But as we entered the twenty-first century, serious questions began to emerge about the sustainability of this way of life.<\/p>\n

A second film “Secret City” (2012) will also be screened:
\nLondon and the City of London are not the same place. London is a metropolis of 8 million people; the City of London is a square mile in the middle, with about 7,000 residents. With a Corporation older than the Parliament, the City of London has played a central role in protecting and promoting the interests of finance capital. Secret City investigates the power wielded by the Corporation of London over British economic policy, through which it sustains London\u2019s prime position at the hub of global finance capital<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The “Dublin Sketchers” is an informal group of typically hobby artists who go somewhere different in Dublin every Sunday (e.g. National Museum, Maritime Museum, Dublin Flea Market, Farmleigh, Botanic Gardens, Dublin Castle), sketch for one to two hours and then meet up for coffee afterwards and discuss their sketches. There are some hugely talented people among them and it is a great idea to meet up with others who have the same hobby. Find out on their website where they will meet and join them if you do some sketching\/drawing yourself.

“The exponential nature of our era – Do we have the focus, talent, and entrepreneurs to keep up?” with Hans van der Loo (previously vice president EU liaison for Royal Dutch Shell in Brussels, is a currently a member of the Board of Atomium Culture, as well as advisor to the World Business Council for Sustainable Development).<\/p>\n

In just half a century the world\u2019s population doubled from 3.5bn to 7bn now. Demographics, combined with economic development, are the most important drivers that determine how the future will evolve and could give rise to a doubling of resource use by 2050. Do we understand the exponential nature of the era we are in? Are we in denial about planetary boundaries? Can growth as we know it continue forever or do we need to change pace? Do grass roots developments point to new insights? Can new ideas be scaled up fast enough to avoid the combined financial\/economic crisis, social tensions and ecological stresses unleashing a perfect storm?<\/p>\n

Admission is free and booking is not required.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

When you check the list of events, don’t just look at Dublin City, but also check the events for Dublin North and Dublin South.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Inter-Gender Toilets<\/strong><\/p>\n

I have to admit that I find this very very odd: www.broadsheet.ie\/2012\/12\/03\/nui-maynooths-inter-gender-bathroom\/<\/a> It is already a good bit older, it was news at the beginning of December, but I just recently was reminded of it and couldn’t resists of putting it in this section. But I have to explain a little: I don’t find it odd that someone is or feels “Inter-Gender”. I have no problem with that, but I would assume that an Inter-Gender person either has a predominantly male or predominantly female appearance. Considering that there are cubicles in every toilet I would therefore think that there is no lack of privacy if a person would have to decide for one or the other toilet. But a third type of toilets is just one step to far! Political Correctness gone mad?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
