McDonald's is advertising for staff to work at Guantánamo Bay, in what might be the perfect opportunity for anyone looking to see out the recession in warmer climes. - Jerusalem Dispossessed | Activestills
If Jerusalem is to remain the symbol of peace and tole-rance it cannot be a ghetto for anyone or owned by any particular group. In the same year that Israel celebrates 40 years of the so-called “unity” of Jerusalem, the city has been divided by force, discrimination and injustice. In the “holy city” of 2007, it seems that the only god is “security” and real estate. Israeli policy is drawing a twisting path of a wall that more than anything ensures more conflict, suffering and despair. The future of Israel cannot be built by blocking the potential of the other. Any negotiation taking place while facts and borders are aggressively being determined according to one side’s interests, is just an illusion. Without real freedom and respect of the other’s right to live in dignity, there is no basis for political negotiation. October 2007 - Resisting the Capitalist Production of Space.
“Ten Days for Oppositional Architecture” takes up the task of exploring possibilities and conditions of a socially committed architectural practice. Therefore the narrow boundaries of the profession have to be left behind. We hence invite activists, geographers, architects, planners, and economists representing different critical approaches to discuss and develop concepts and practices that not only try to oppose and challenge the capitalist mode of production of space, but also try to go beyond it – strategies of de-commodification, re-appropriation and alternative production of space. - FCForum

We invite all governments, multinationals and institutions urgently to listen to it, understand it and enforce it. - Provisions Library » Blog Archive » Activist Listening

But founding members Jeebesh Bagchi, Monica Narula, and Shuddhabrata Sengupta once jokingly stated, however, that raqs stands for “rarely asked questions.” - 'Vomit on the table' and speak like a 1950s hipster | Culture | The Guardian

I was unable to reach "Flamenco in Canada.htm" so perhaps there is more to the address? The singer and musicians with your daughter were also commendable - I did not immediately see notes about who did what, and where the performance occurred (in Spain, I suspect). A very fine ensemble all together.
I intend to move to B.C. within the next year or two... I've friends who are nearby, and had composed for a friend who taught at Simon Frazer. I believe her daughter is teaching there now (and that's where my stepdaughter also studied dance a bit). I'll be north of Victoria rather than on the Vancouver side.
Best regards
When I am next in Montréal I will take opportunities to find a club, and perhaps sometime will encounter your daughter. There is a small flamenco scene in Minneapolis USA I understand, and perhaps other small pockets of capable performers here and there that I may be able to travel to. Mili Bermejo has offered to teach me privately in the summers, if I can improve upon my Spanish. 8-}
Best regards.
