Apologies for
this article’s real delay, I was very busy finishing
writing my article of our last trip in Dubai, Abu Dhabi
and 5 other Emirates in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). We
were there for 3 weeks, so we did a lot of great things
and met with many very interesting people. As guests of
the Ministries, and Members of the Royal Family we went
to several special places and had very successful events
in the 7 Emirates. Those who had received our UAE
Article we had sent out, you know of what I speak. If
you did not get the article please let us know and we
will resend it to you.
Our Christmas
celebration was a real celebration and another smashing
success! We were joined by so many guests, many new
guests, our regulars, and members and friends of Elite
Professional Networking Group (EPNG) Black Tie
International Magazine, and many brought their own
friends to celebrate this wonderful Christmas with us,
starting with our co-host: Gerard
McKeon the Publisher of Black Tie International
Magazine, Guests Orly
Amor President of Holistic Chamber of Manhattan, Sam
Liebowitz of Talking Alternative Radio, Joan Pelzer of
Strategic Social Media Marketing, Jim Swiger Director
EnviroGlobal Solutions, Ltd, Jose Segarra of Engineering
Artful Translations Magnum Group and
almost all of our guests brought their own friends. So
in spite of that it was Friday, and
a rainy night we had a full house. It is odd occurrence,
because it won't be raining for several days then the
day of our scheduled event it will rain. But of course
this is New York rain or shine people will come out to
support us, and join in our good festivities. So it was
really a fun night.
The venue was held again, at The
World Bar at Trump Tower World International by the
United Nations and produced by Gloria T. Cressler,
CEO/Founder of Elite Professional Networking Group (EPNG)
and International Correspondent & Host of Black Tie
International Magazine & TV. Co-hosted by Black Tie
International Magazine, Power Team International,
Giorgio G. Cognac (by famous designer Giorgio GUCCI),
and Emperors Vodka, Wine World Wide Inc., and Global
Fine Wines & Food Connection.
We were joined
by our fine long-time friends Emmy
Award Winner TV & Radio Host Rita Cosby, Tomczek
Bednarek Managing Partner Cinestage Media, Trade
Commissioner of Poland Sabina Klimek, Wojciech Trocewicz
also of Polish Consulate, Comtessa Suzanne De Paris,
Richard Alan who
always bring his beautiful and gorgeous models, and many
other fabulous guests. Everyone was having such a
terrific time. So as usual, everyone stayed ‘till the
wee hours of the night again. It is really a wonderful
Christmas celebration. You can feel and smell Christmas
celebration in the air. Everyone is in such a festive
mood and wants the celebration. And it seemed that many
of the guests including me were toasting with champagne
that night.
