Caribbean today - Sir Richard Brandon´s House Burns Down. Kate Winslet rescues his mother

Uploaded by on Aug 22, 2011

Guests including Academy Award-winning actress Kate Winslet escaped uninjured when fire destroyed Richard Branson's Caribbean home during a tropical storm Monday, said the British businessman. 

The Virgin Group boss said about 20 people, including Winslet and her children, were staying in the eight-bedroom Great House on Necker, his private isle in the British Virgin Islands. 

Branson said he was staying in another property around 100 yards (meters) away with his wife, Joan and son Sam, 25.

Russell Grant's Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday 23rd August 2011

.
Aries (Mar21/Apr20) You are justifiably proud for being a hard worker. When your colleagues are given difficult tasks, they often complain and procrastinate. Not you. You welcome a challenge. Besides, you hate being seen as lazy. Luckily, your boss appreciates your attitude, and is poised to give you a raise or promotion. Be willing to take over for an ailing colleague. By the time they recover you'll be rewarded for your cooperative attitude. Revel in your success; buy yourself a beautiful present.
 .
Taurus (Apr21/May21) You're sick and tired of working from sunrise to sunset. This is when your will of iron comes in handy. Establish a new routine that allows for your favourite hobby, even if it means reducing your work schedule or scaling back your domestic duties. Although you're very security conscious by nature, you'll find yourself taking a series of bold risks. Obey your impulse to try new sports, hobbies, or crafts. You will be thrilled with the results. After all, variety is the spice of life.
 .
Gemini (May22/Jun21) Establishing some traditions makes you feel more grounded. Devote a certain day each week to preparing a big meal with your family or going on a trip to the library. You don't have to do anything elaborate. Any mildly enjoyable activity will provide the sense of calm reassurance you crave. If you're thinking of buying your own place, start looking around now. You could find a well priced home that is surrounded by greenery. Make a low bid and be willing to negotiate.
 .
Cancer (Jun22/Jul23) Your schedule is starting to pick up. Business trips, short breaks, and shopping excursions will keep you on the move. Normally, you prefer staying close to home. Getting frequent changes of scenery will actually be healthy for you. You'll start noticing new ways of doing things and integrate those methods into your own life. Adding more greenery to your surroundings will lift your spirits. If you're not good with plants, find some that require very little care.
 .
Leo (Jul24/Aug23) Taking control of your financial affairs eases your fears. It doesn't matter if you're in debt or are underemployed. The important thing is to take stock of your resources and find ways to expand them. If you have a lot of credit card bills, consolidate them and lower the interest rate. These days, lenders are eager to negotiate with borrowers, in the interest of recouping some of their inevitable losses. If you feel like you're out of your depth, take a money management course.
 .
Virgo (Aug24/Sep23) After a prolonged period of quiet, your vitality has come back full force. Finding a channel for your considerable curiosity is essential. Writing a book, launching a research project, or teaching a class will give you tremendous pleasure. People enjoy being around you, because you radiate joy and enthusiasm. Don't be surprised when several people come forward, trying to win your heart. If you're single, play the field until you find somebody who brings out your sensual side.
 .
Libra (Sep24/Oct23) Embarking on a self improvement program is a little scary. You're not sure if you have the drive or tenacity to break a bad habit. Besides, it's so much easier following the old routine. Still, if you're going to accomplish something impressive, you have to make some temporary sacrifices. Shut yourself away from friends who are bad influences. Steer clear of places that tempt you into bad behaviour. Above all, be gentle with yourself. Slow and steady wins the race.
 .
Scorpio (Oct24/Nov22) The prospect of furthering your education fills you with excitement. You're ready to develop a burgeoning interest in writing, botany, or ecology. Sceptics will say you're wasting your time, and try to discourage you from entering a lengthy course of study. Turn a deaf ear to their warnings. They're just jealous of your courage. It takes guts to go in a new direction. Keep following your heart. Have some inspirational reading and movies on hand for times when you get discouraged.
 .
Sagittarius (Nov23/Dec21) All eyes are on you, so be on your best behaviour. Although you hate bowing to the authorities, you'll have to perform well to achieve the success you desire. Dress professionally, be respectful, and do your job well. By demonstrating you are able to play by the rules, you'll be given a position that allows you a greater measure of freedom. First you must prove you're an asset to the organisation. Put your nose to the grindstone.
 .
Capricorn (Dec22/Jan20) Taking the helm of a big organisation fills you with excitement. Normally, being a leader is a thankless job. This situation is much different. People appreciate your ability to delegate tasks and organise events. They won't fight you at every turn. In fact, they'll go out of their way to help you. Don't be surprised if a newspaper or magazine writes an article on you. Use this publicity to attract charitable donations. The more money you raise, the more the community will thrive.
 .
Aquarius (Jan21/Feb19) Your sex appeal sizzles and you won't have any trouble attracting admirers. If you're already in a relationship, take this opportunity to expand your lovemaking repertoire. You'll be able to talk your amour into anything, just by breathing in their ear. Money from an inheritance, dividend, or refund allows you to buy some books and music. Some people go for fancy gadgets, but you prefer simple pleasures that feed your soul. Maybe this is why it's easy for you to maximise your resources.
 .
Pisces (Feb20/Mar20) Negotiation isn't normally your strong suit, but that's about to change. By listening to your intuition, you can figure out an adversary's vulnerable spot. Use this knowledge as leverage on a sweet deal. By applying pressure to their Achilles heel, you'll get everything you want and more. Some people will accuse you of being ruthless, but actually, you've just found a way to get what you deserve. Don't feel guilty about fighting for your rights. Nobody else will do it for you.
