Neues vom Gucci Fake

Gestern deckte BLICK auf: Mit einem dreisten Betrug hat sich Juan Casilla als Gucci-Model gross in Szene gesetzt. Er platzierte sein Bild mit Gucci-Parfümflakon als Inserat gleich doppelseitig in Schweizer Zeitungen – und liess ganz frech die Rechnung Gucci in Zürich zukommen.



Neues vom Gucci-Schwindler

Als Zirkus-Chef verteilte er Freibillette

ZÜRICH – Bei dieser Karriere wirds einem ganz schwindlig. Gucci-Schwindler Juan Isidro Casilla (22) ist auch ein Zirkus-Chef. Und ein Armani-Model. Und ein Sony-Manager. Und ein Saenger...

Thomas H.* lernt Juan Isidro Casilla im Ausgang kennen. «Er stellte sich mir als Schweizer Manager des Cirque du Soleil vor.

»Generös schenkt der «Zirkus-Chef» Thomas H. zwei VIP-Tickets. Dazu gibts einen persönlichen Begleitbrief und seine «Cirque du Soleil»-Visitenkarte. Hochtrabend steht darauf: Juan Isidro Casilla. Executive Producer & Show Choreographer.

Der Zirkustraum von Thomas H. platzt, als er seine VIP-Tickets an der Kasse vorzeigt. «Die Tickets, der Brief, die Visitenkarte – alles gefälscht», sagt Thomas H.

Kein Wunder: Juan Isidro Casilla ist ein Schwindler. Erst letzte Woche schaltete er in mehreren Zeitungen grossformatige Inserate. Auf denen posiert er selber als Gucci-Model, wie BLICK gestern enthüllte. Der Schaden: mehrere Zehntausend Franken. Zuvor gab er sich als Manager des Musikriesen Sony BMG aus.

Seinen Auftritt als Zirkus-Chef hat der Schwindler professionell vorbereitet. In Gelterkinden BL lässt er für sich bei der Firma Permatrend zwei bestickte «Cirque du Soleil»-Jacken herstellen. «Er gab sich als deren Einkäufer aus und stellte einen Auftrag von mehreren Zehntausend Franken in Aussicht», sagt Firmeninhaber Stefan Meyer.

Als die Rechnung nicht bezahlt wird, erstattet Meyer Anzeige. Zu dieser Zeit ist Juan Isidro Casilla wieder mal als selbst ernanntes Model unterwegs. Diesmal nicht für Gucci, sondern für Armani.

«Er wollte Inserate schalten. Aber wir kamen ihm auf die Schliche, stellten ihm eine Falle», heisst es bei der betroffenen Zeitung Gay.ch.

Am 2. November 2006 um 14.15 Uhr wird Casilla verhaftet. Einen Tag später ist er wieder aus dem Knast. «Gegen ihn wird wegen Betrugs ermittelt», sagt der Baselbieter Polizeisprecher Meinrad Stöcklin.

Doch das beeindruckt den Schwindler wenig. Mit den ergaunerten «Cirque du Soleil»-Jacken reist er nach Las Vegas, wo der Zirkus gastiert. Dort gibt er sich frech als «Createur von Cirque-du-Soleil-Shows» aus. Knapp entwischt er dem Sicherheitsdienst des Zirkus.

Juan Isidro Casilla, der Schwindler, der sich gerne in der Zeitung sieht. Geboren ist er am 14. Januar 1982 in der Dominikanischen Republik. Einen Teil seiner Jugend- und Schulzeit verbrachte er in Muri AG. Noch heute besucht er dort regelmässig seine Mutter. Von Muri gings nach Allschwil BL. Und im Juni 2005 nach Zürich.

Denn er weiss: Die Anonymität der Grossstadt ist das beste Umfeld für einen Schwindler.

Gucci Fake, English

Feb. 27, 2007, 9:31AM

Swiss newspaper says it fell for fake Gucci ad
Associated Press

http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/bizarre/4585344.html

ZURICH, Switzerland — Some people will do anything to get into the papers.
But few have the audacity of a man in Switzerland, who conned one of the country's biggest media companies into publishing a two-page advertisement he created of himself posing semi-naked beside a bottle of Gucci perfume.

The man, who claimed to represent the Italian fashion giant, called up the Swiss weekly SonntagsZeitung last week to book the expensive color spread in Sunday's edition, a spokesman for the paper said.

Christoph Zimmer told The Associated Press today the man asked for the $49,100 bill to be sent to Gucci.

"We've spoken to Gucci and apologized for the mistake," Zimmer said. "We're going to try and get the money back from this guy, but we don't rate our chances."

The Milan-based Gucci, owned by luxury goods group PPR SA, could not be reached for comment.

Zimmer said the paper fell for the scam because the call arrived too late for the advertising department to check whether it was genuine.

It was not the first time the mysterious model — a dark, handsome man who appears to be in his late 20s — tried to sneak into the limelight.

According to the Zurich-based daily Blick, the man also attempted to book concert venues by passing himself off as Puerto Rican pop singer Chayanne.

The man is under investigation for alleged fraud in relation to other cases, said Meinrad Stoecklin, a spokesman for police in Basel. Police refused to identify him under strict Swiss privacy laws.

Gucci Fake, heute im Blick

Weil er sich so gerne in der Zeitung sieht

Schwindler fälscht Gucci-Inserate

VON BEAT KRAUSHAAR27.02.2007 11:37:38

ZÜRICH – Dieser Schmollmund, dieser Blick! Haben Sie sich schon gefragt, wer der Schönling aus der neuen Gucci-Werbung ist? Gucci auch.

Der junge Mann nennt sich sinnigerweise Watson – wie der kleine Helfer des weltberühmten Detektivs Sherlock Holmes. Watson posiert nicht nur lasziv für das Eau de Parfum der Edelmarke. Er schaltet auch die Inserate gleich selber – als PR-Product-Manager von Gucci International in Zürich.

Nur: Bei Gucci gibt es keinen PR-Manager mit diesem Namen. Watson ist ein Schwindler, der sich gerne selber in der Zeitung sieht.

Und das hat er schon ein paar Mal geschafft. Sogar doppelseitig. Etwa in der letzten «SonntagsZeitung» aus dem Verlag Tamedia. Und am Freitag in der Gratiszeitung «heute» von Ringier. Die Rechnung liess er frech an die offizielle Adresse von Gucci Zürich schicken. Schaden: mehrere zehntausend Franken.

Der Mann ist unverfroren, nur so konnte er überhaupt seine Inserate schalten. Bei den Anzeigenabteilungen der Zeitungen buchte er in letzter Minute. So reichte die Zeit kaum, die Echtheit der Inserate zu überprüfen.

Blieb nur ein Problem: Er hat bei Gucci keine Mail-Adresse. Ein plumper Trick half ihm. Der falsche PR-Product-Manager schrieb den Anzeigenabteilungen: «Bitte, falls Sie mir ein Mail senden möchten, kann es sein, dass es vorübergehend nicht geht. Dann probieren Sie es auf eine andere E-Mail-Adresse: ...»

Heute hätte das falsche Gucci-Inserat auch im BLICK erscheinen sollen. Doch der Schwindel flog vorher auf. Watson wurde zum Verhängnis, dass er erkannt wurde. Denn Gucci ist nicht das erste Opfer des Schwindlers.

Auch der internationale Musikriese Sony BMG kann ein Lied davon singen. «Wir schlagen uns schon seit Jahren mit dem Mann herum. Er bucht in unserem Namen Veranstaltungen und will Werbespots schalten. Er tritt unter diversen Namen auf, gerne als Watson oder auch Casilla», warnte Sony BMG den BLICK. Und liess keinen Zweifel, dass es sich um denselben Mann handelt: «Am Sonntag war übrigens eine Doppelseite in der ‹SonntagsZeitung› mit ihm als Model drauf.

»Watson alias Casilla sieht sich nicht nur gerne in der Zeitung. Er träumt auch davon, ein Star zu sein. Unter dem Namen des bekannten Latino-Sängers und Schauspielers Chayanne hat er auch schon versucht, Konzerte zu buchen.

Jetzt soll Watson der Laufsteg unter den Füssen weggezogen werden. Gucci ist stinksauer. «So etwas haben wir noch nie erlebt», heisst es bei der Edelmarke. Laut Gucci wird die Sache raschestmöglich geprüft und es werden rechtliche Schritte gegen ihn eingeleitet.

Watson ist auch ohne die aktuellen Gucci-Inserate bereits bekannt. Bei der Polizei Baselland. Diese ermittelt seit geraumer Zeit gegen den Schwindler.

My dogs part two the second

How about Sandra Bullock for Chloe??

Very cute indeed :) I do like her a lot.

Cats Heaven

I am sure, this is what my cats dream of at night :)

My dogs part two

Chloe

OK, lets start with Chloe... :) She is a calm dog who rarely shows any emotions. She is peaceful and pretty smart but not the bravest dog. Pretty thin and kinda elegant. I remember when we went to the "Pet spa" in South Beach, she got her nails done and then they gave her something really nice on her fur so it was shiny and she smelled like a cherry. lol.. after that treatment she honestly "trotted" down the road, showing off. It was too funny.

I see her played by :

Meryl Streep

I love Meryl Streep and in "The devil wears Prada" she is just excellent :) Too bad she didn't win the Oscar. :) Next time :)

Now guys.. what do you think? Should she lend Chloe her voice?? :)

My dogs part one

Today, while watching my dogs, I had a thought. Who would be "playing" my dog, if they would ever be in a movie. Do you understand what I mean? Ok, here a bit clearer.

Chloe my oldest dog is a lady. So who would lend her a voice if she would be in any kind of movie.

Anastasia is the crazy dog. Sometimes very aggressive and sometimes like a baby.

Padme is hmm... not really a geek but somehow that kind of do, who looks up to the other two and does what ever they do. You get the picture ;) lol

Moumouche is our baby but she knows exactly what she wants... a little girl with her own mind.

I am going to post some pictures soon, so you see the faces of the dogs.. might make it a bit easier to think of someone.

And then... lets see, what kind of suggestions you will give me... which VIP would be playing which dog of mine. :)

Happy guessing :)

Why girls are crazy about shoes???

Well... guys have a very simple life... if they have a pair of black and a pair of brown shoes... they have actually enough shoes for work and going out. Why? Very simple. What do guys wear for work? What do guys wear when they go out? What kind of colors? EXACTLY. They don't have red, green, pink, light blue, yellow and other nice colored trousers. They usually have black, dark blue or grey trousers.

Girls on the other hand do wear dresses and pants in all kind of colors. Now imagine. A girl wears a nice light blue dress... and BLACK shoes?? gee... that really is no option. So, girls do have to fit all their clothes with shoes. Pink dress, nice pink shoes. Black dress, nice black with a golden touch shoes and so on.. u get the picture...

So guy, never ever "shoe shame' your girls... we have it difficult enough to always look perfect ;) lol And yes, you could actually help... go shoe shopping with your girl... and give her the walk in closet for her shoes... I am sure you don't need more than one shelf for your clothes ;)

Well more about shoes a bit later... ;)

Fasnacht

Da ja bald Fasnacht ist... dachte ich mir, werde ich mal ein geniales und eigentlich so einfaches Rezept posten.. :) enjoy

Fasnachtschüchli
Zutaten für 10 Personen:

600 g Mehl
1 TL Salz
3 dl Vollrahm
6 Eier
Puderzucker zum bestäuben

Die Eier mit dem Rahm verrühren. Das Mehl mit dem Salz mischen und mit der Eier/Rahmmischung zu einem Teig kneten (Dieser Teig muss sehr gut geknetet werden, sonst kann er später nicht so hauchdünn wie nötig ausgewallt werden).

Zugedeckt 30 Minuten ruhen lassen.Kleine Teigstücke hauchdünn auswallen mit Mehl bestäuben und etwas antrocken lassen.

Backen: Die Friteuse auf 180°C erhitzen, anschliessend die Fasnachtschüechli darin goldgelb ausbacken und zum schluss mit Puderzucker bestäuben.

En guete :)

All Banana

Never, put your banana in the refrigerator!!!

This is interesting.After reading this, you'll never look at a banana in the same way again.

Bananas contain three natural sugars - sucrose, fructose and glucose combined with fiber. A banana gives an instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy. Research has proven that just two bananas provide enough energy for a strenuous 90-minute workout. No wonder the banana is the number one fruit with the world's leading athletes.

But energy isn't the only way a banana can help us keep fit.It can also help overcome or prevent a substantial number of illnesses and conditions, making it a must to add to our daily diet. Depression: According to a recent survey undertaken by MIND amongst people suffering from depression, many felt much better after eating a banana. This is because bananas contain tryptophan, a type of protein that the body converts into serotonin, known to make you relax, improve your mood and generally make you feel happier.

PMS: Forget the pills - eat a banana. The vitamin B6 it contains regulates blood glucose levels, which can affect your mood.

Anemia: High in iron, bananas can stimulate the production of hemoglobin in the blood and so helps in cases of anemia.

Blood Pressure: This unique tropical fruit is extremely high in potassium yet low in salt, making it perfect to beat blood pressure. So much so, the US Food and Drug Administration has just allowed the banana industry to make official claims for the fruit's ability to reduce the risk of blood pressure and stroke.

Brain Power:200 students at a Twickenham (Middlesex) school were helped through their exams this year by eating bananas at breakfast, break, and lunch in a bid to boost their brain power. Research has shown that the potassium-packed fruit can assist learning by making pupils more alert.

Constipation: High in fiber, including bananas in the diet can help restore normal bowel action, helping to overcome the problem without resorting to laxatives.

Hangovers: One of the quickestways of curing a hangover is to make a banana milkshake, sweetened with honey. The banana calms the stomach and, with the help of the honey, builds up depleted blood sugar levels, while the milk soothes and re-hydrates your system.

Heartburn:Bananas have a natural antacid effect in the body, so if you suffer from heartburn, try eating a banana for soothing relief.

Morning Sickness: Snacking on bananas between meals helps to keep blood sugar levels up and avoid morning sickness.

Mosquito bites: Before reaching for the insect bite cream, try rubbing the affected area with the inside of a banana skin. Many people find it amazingly successful at reducing swelling and irritation.

Nerves: Bananas are high in B vitamins that help calm the nervous system.

Overweight: and at work? Studies at the Institute of Psychology in Austria found pressure at work leads to gorging on comfort food like chocolate and crisps. Looking at 5,000 hospital patients, researchers found the most obese were more likely to be in high-pressure jobs. The report concluded that, to avoid panic-induced food cravings, we need to control our blood sugar levels by snacking on high carbohydrate foods every two hours to keep levels steady.

Ulcers: The banana is used as the dietary food against intestinal disorders because of its soft texture and smoothness. It is the only raw fruit that can be eaten without distress in over-chronicler cases. It also neutralizes over-acidity and reduces irritation by coating the lining of the stomach.

Temperature control: Many other cultures see bananas as a "cooling" fruit that can lower both the physical and emotional temperature of expectant mothers. In Thailand , for example, pregnant women eat bananas to ensure their baby is born with a cool temperature.

Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD): Bananas can help SAD sufferers because they contain the natural mood enhancer tryptophan.Smoking &Tobacco Use: Bananas can also help people trying to give up smoking. The B6, B12 they contain, as well as the potassium and magnesium found in them, help the body recover from the effects of nicotine withdrawal.

Stress: Potassium is a vital mineral, which helps normalize the heartbeat, sends oxygen to the brain and regulates your body's water balance. When we are stressed, our metabolic rate rises, thereby reducing our potassium levels. These can be rebalanced with the help of a high-potassium banana snack.

Strokes: According to research in The New England Journal of Medicine, eating bananas as part of a regular diet can cut the risk of death by strokes by as much as 40%!

Warts: Those keen on natural alternatives swear that if you want to kill off a wart, take a piece of banana skin and place it on the wart, with the yellow side out. Carefully hold the skin in place with a plaster or surgical tape!

So, a banana really is a natural remedy for many ills. When you compare it to an apple, it has four times the protein, twice the carbohydrate, three times the phosphorus, five times the vitamin A and iron, and twice the other vitamins and minerals. It is also rich in potassium and is one of the best value foods around So maybe its time to change that well-known phrase so that we say, "A banana a day keeps the doctor away!"

PS: Bananas must be the reason monkeys are so happy all the time!

I will add one more here; want a quick shine on our shoes?? Take the INSIDE of the banana skin, and rub directly on the shoe...polish with dry cloth.

Amazing fruit !

Happy New Year

Today is Chinese New Year. The year of the pig or as it is called DingHai.

Now, here are some informations on the year of the pig.

Btw. I was born as a Fire Dragon in the month of the Water Snake at the day of the Wood Rat.

What will this year bring us in general?

Year of the Fire Pig

Forget everything you know about the easygoing, laid-back, roll-in-the-mud Pig. This is the year of the Fire Pig, and there will be fireworks aplenty. It should be a feel-good year loaded with excitement.

Water is the Pig's fixed element. In Chinese astrology, Water plus Fire equals disaster. Also, the fifth month of the Chinese calendar is the month of the Fire Horse. This will be a time of daring accomplishments and serious calamities.
The Fire Pig is nevertheless a Pig, and we need to remember what that means for us. The Pig is the 12th and last sign of the Chinese zodiac. We have come to the end of the cycle, and it's time to celebrate our accomplishments. Yes, it's party time! Be good to yourself this year; you've earned it. Family reunions, extended vacations and a spa membership are in order.

Like last year's sign, the Dog, the Pig calls us to focus on family. Now we need to concentrate more on relationships. It's a Fire year, a year filled with passion. What a great time to begin a new romance or take an existing one to a new level -- a vacation in Paris or Bali might be just the thing. When is the last time you shared a hot tub with your sweetheart? Make it a priority this year.
The West has its fat cats, and Chinese astrology has its fat pigs. We're talking money! Yes, this is a year to make more than a little, so be alert for opportunities.

It may seem incongruous to link the Pig with scholars, but the association is there; and it's a positive one, due in part to the fact that the Pig's fixed element is Water. This could thus be a very good year for those in academia.
Although Pig is the last year in the 12-year cycle, it is only the 24th in the larger, 60-year cycle. At this point it should be emphasized that 2007 is a Fire year. This is not a year for the faint of heart. On the positive side, Fire provides each of us the energy we need to initiate action, regardless of whether or not immediate attention is required. It is not a time to sit on the sidelines.

Fire and Pig together call us to work on vigorously attacking existing projects and completing them. It is not a particularly favorable time to conceive of and begin new ventures. With the clash of Fire and Water, now is not the time to take a lot of risk. Use the energy of positive Fire to raise your work level to a high intensity, but avoid the foolhardiness associated with negative Fire, and your business interests will prosper.

Since this is a Fire year, those people born in an Earth year will generally fare better than others of their animal sign, while those born in a Metal year are likely to do worse than those born in Wood, Fire, Earth and Water years.
Health issues vary not only by sign but by individual. Your best bet is to visit a Chinese doctor to have your balances checked and get some advice for the coming year. It is a Fire year, so one thing we can say in general is to be on the lookout for signs of stress and a tendency to overextend one's self.

2007 will be an exciting year. We will experience passion and crises on and off throughout the year. The Pig is a go-with-the-flow type. If you follow the Pig's example by enjoying life's pleasures and heating up your relationships, this will be a very memorable year indeed.

Well and last but not least... just a little bit of history about the Chinese New Year and who is actually "a pig" ;)

Gung Hay Fat Choy!

The Lunar New Year dates from 2600 BC, when the Emperor Huang Ti introduced the first cycle of the Chinese zodiac.

Because of cyclical lunar dating, the first day of the year can fall anywhere between late January and the middle of February. On the Chinese calendar, 2007 is Lunar Year 4704-4705. On the Western calendar, the start of the New Year falls on February 18, 2007 — The Year of the Pig.

If you were born in 1923, 1935, 1947, 1959, 1971, 1983 or 1995 - you were born under the sign of the pig. Like the pig, you are highly regarded for your chilvary and pureness of heart, and you often make friends for life. For pigs in 2007, any recent setbacks or obstacles can be overcome so look forward to a year in which to really shine, either personally or professionally.

Well so, in this sense:

HAPPY NEW YEAR
