Archbishop delivers Palm Sunday message concerning violence

NotiCel.com Archbishop Roberto González Nieves called on Puerto Ricans to reflect on the true meaning of Holy Week, during a Palm Sunday service following the traditional procession through the streets of Old San Juan.“Today Jesus wants to enter among us as king,” said the Archbishop. “Don’t make of this time only one of shopping, vacation and rest.”The archbishop said the message of Holy Week is particularly needed during a time of so many manifestations of violence among Puerto Ricans.“Puerto Rico and Puerto Ricans need to be illuminated by the Christian Easter.

A SOCIAL PACT FOR EDUCATION

To fully carry out its constitutional role of ensuring quality education, the state has to undertake a profound reform process, based on the principles of democratic education, direct the main emphasis and resources toward the student's needs and set transformative curriculum.

Education: my main concern

Minors at traffic lights

I agree with the letter entitled "Method and abuse?" 'The reader Benigno Ramos, published in The New Day on Thursday, March 29. In the letter Ramos expressed concern that many adults use minors in sales efforts, promotions and collecting money at traffic lights on streets and avenues.

Ramos pointed out how this approach has been increasing in the area of ​​the Mall Plaza Escorial, the 65th Infantry Ave.

I wish to inform that the same is happening in Cupey, on Highway 199, better known as The Summit, specifically between Borinquen Gardens traffic lights and exit to the Las Americas Expressway. Every weekend we can observe a considerable number of children identified with different sports uniforms, soliciting money from drivers and risking their lives to move through traffic.

I wonder why the leaders of these teams do not select another type of fundraiser. A good idea would be to sell chocolates among family and friends, this type of product sells itself because I always like.

I also want to know how it is that parents give permission for their children are exposed to sun, rain and so many other risks, the truth, I can not explain.

Definitely, this form must be prohibited.

Smear campaign

"He who remains silent, gives" so much. I express myself on the latest developments at the Instituto Loaiza Cordero. My claim is on behalf of students and most of my fellow teachers and educators, we strive to serve our children well, we work to maintain an atmosphere of peace, harmony, security and respect.

In recent weeks has come to public light a completely wrong description of our school. That's not the school where I worked for 28 years. Is there, apparently, a teacher involved in a sexual abuse case? Yes, but the relevant authorities are working with the investigation. Does the past year there was a violent situation between two children with vision problems? Yes, but isolated cases accuse us unjustly.

We will not allow it. We are not abusers, let alone, our students are violent. Abuse, violence and abuse is a pattern in our school. Publicly condemn these expressions and ask you, please, stop the smear campaign that has taken as its north that want to destroy our school.

Request to AAA

Since the park began rehabilitation Francisco Caballero, Barranquitas, however, had to stop work for lack of help from the Water and Sewer Authority (AAA), as inside the ground water is only empozadas the corporation can identify where they come from.

If not corrected this problem can not continue with the rehabilitation of this dependence.

The arrangement of this park is, without doubt, a blessing for the people of the community down the street, and the students of the School Jose Berrios Berdecia of the people.

I urge the AAA director, Jose Ortiz, to send crews to correct the problem.

Barranquitas

opposed to a help center

Is it more important to speeding and alcohol education? The answer to this question would be obvious to anyone that the intoxication of pride not blinded. But for a community of Caguas, it is not. It is a defense that has cost them to make a dozen parents and students who do not understand the reason for his refusal to a school that specializes in providing a harmonious environment, quality, according to educational standards, teaching what is respect, accountability and democratic consciousness.

Too bad it's the same community that discourages the energies and efforts made by parents and teachers for these youth. Have caused the bureaucratic permit process becomes a less fair and impartial insisting that the center can not operate because it disrupts the easy access to transit (being a two-lane street), would bring unnecessary noise (being a farm) and among other ignorance exposed, would bring crime to the community.

Do they think they are going to have a pub by urbanization? Would any school is late with people, noise, attracting crime, obstructing the path vehicular and selling drinks?

Apparently, there are many who prefer to sign for education with today's youth is in the "liquor stores", bakeries and shops, which do not have permissions problems in the area.

    Biography - Legacy - Partial Discography - See also

Pau Casals i Defilló (Catalan pronunciation: [ˈpaw kəˈzaɫs]) (December 29, 1876 – October 22, 1973), known during his professional career as Pablo Casals,[1][2][3] was a Spanish Catalan cellist and conductor. He is generally regarded as the pre-eminent cellist of the first half of the 20th century, and one of the greatest cellists of all time. He made many recordings throughout his career, of solo, chamber, and orchestral music, also as conductor, but he is perhaps best remembered for the recordings of the Bach Cello Suites he made from 1936 to 1939.

Biography

[edit] Childhood and early years

Casals was born in El Vendrell, Catalonia, Spain. His father, Carlos Casals i Ribes (1852–1908), was a parish organist and choirmaster. He gave Casals instruction in piano, song, violin, and organ. He was also a very strict disciplinarian. When Casals was young his father would pull the piano out from the wall and have him and his brother, Arturo, stand behind it and name the notes and the scales that his father was playing. At age four Casals could play the violin, piano and flute; at the age of six he played the violin well enough to perform a solo in public. His first encounter with a cello-like instrument was from witnessing a local traveling Catalan musician, who played a cello-strung broom handle. Upon request, his father built him a crude cello, using a gourd as a sound-box. When Casals was eleven, he first heard the real cello performed by a group of traveling musicians, and decided to dedicate himself to the instrument.[citation needed]

In 1888 his mother, Pilar Defilló de Casals, who was born in Mayagüez, Puerto Rico of Catalonian ancestry, took him to Barcelona, where he enrolled in the Escola Municipal de Música.[4] There he studied cello, theory, and piano. In 1890, when he was 13, he discovered in a second-hand sheet music store in Barcelona a tattered copy of Bach's six cello suites. He spent the next 13 years practicing them every day before he would perform them in public for the first time.[5] Casals would later make his own personal version of the six suites.[6] He made prodigious progress as a cellist; on February 23, 1891 he gave a solo recital in Barcelona at the age of fourteen. He graduated from the Escola with honours five years later.

[edit] Youth and studies

In 1893, another Spanish composer Isaac Albéniz heard him playing in a trio in a café and gave him a letter of introduction to the private secretary to María Cristina, the Queen Regent. Casals was asked to play at informal concerts in the palace, and was granted a royal stipend to study composition at the Conservatorio de Música y Declamación in Madrid with Víctor Mirecki. He also played in the newly organized Quartet Society.

In 1895 he went to Paris, where, having lost his stipend from Catalonia, he earned a living by playing second cello in the theater orchestra of the Folies Marigny. In 1896, he returned to Catalonia and received an appointment to the faculty of the Escola Municipal de Música in Barcelona. He was also appointed principal cellist in the orchestra of Barcelona's opera house, the Liceu. In 1897 he appeared as soloist with the Madrid Symphony Orchestra, and was awarded the Order of Carlos III from the Queen.[citation needed]

Movement created to search for new Puerto Rico

By Marvin FonsecaInter News ServiceThe social, economic and political crisis experienced by the country in the last years has motivated the foundation of new political organizations that seek to encourage Puerto Ricans to look beyond the traditional political parties in order to accomplish a better quality of life.In the last years citizens have seen the birth of three new political organizations. First, there is Puerto Ricans for Puerto Rico (PPR for its Spanish acronym), a party that surprised many people after getting more votes than the Puerto Rican Pro-Independence Party in the 2008 general elections.

El Indie: Sin Chistes Ni Sarcasmo...

via Mala Vida, Buena Música by NaturalBornCritic on 4/2/12


Hoy recibí una llamada de una buena amiga, cuya opinión y percepciones aprecio y respeto. Su llamada no tenía como propósito chistear ni hacer planes para el fin de semana próximo. No. Esta llamada tuvo un propósito más serio y genuino, el cual me inspiró a sentarme a escribir esta pieza. Mi amiga llamó para expresar una preocupación particular sobre las opiniones que plasmamos en esta página. "Tu amas la música y eres cómico con cojones, pero me da la impresión que mucha gente piensa que estás hablando en serio en todo momento." Este comentario, viniendo de una persona a quien respeto intelectualmente, no era posible despacharlo con un simple "que se vayan pa'l carajo, entonces!" Por el contrario, este planteamiento había que considerarlo.
Muchas veces hemos dicho que esta página tiene un alto contenido humorístico y que las cabronerías que aqui decimos no pueden tomarse 100% en serio. Aún nuestras reseñas más serias contienen algún chistecito o comentario sarcástico. Estoy seguro que nuestros disclaimers no han sido creídos por algunas personas, quizás porque le desagradan nuestros chistes tanto como aquello que decimos en serio. Pero el comentario de mi amiga caló profundo en mi cerebro, asi que esta pieza no contendrá ningún tipo de humor ni sarcasmos. Lo que prosigue lo digo 100% de corazón.
Hace varias semanas publicamos una reseña de mi autoría, en la cual expresé mis opiniones sobre el Indie Music Fest, el cual se celebrará este próximo 14 de abril de 2012. A la fecha en la cual publicamos esa reseña se habían anunciado algunas pocas de las bandas que se presentarían en tarima. Sin pelos en la lengua critiqué a los organizadores del evento, por estar tan crasamente fuera de toque con lo que está pasando en la música independiente, no solo en la isla, sino internacionalmente. Sin embargo, y según me expreso mi amiga, algunas personas piensan que odiamos solamente por odiar. Ese, queridos lectores, les prometo que no es el caso. Nada nos complacería más que no poder decir nada negativo sobre este particular evento, o sobre esta o aquella banda de la escena. Lamentablemente, no toda gestión o expresión artística que se genera en Puerto Rico es excelente y no entiendo porque el mero hecho de decir que algo no es de tu agrado automáticamente te convierte en un hater. Nunca osaríamos pensar que nuestras opiniones no son compartidas por un gran número de personas, sean lectores de nuestra página o no. Pensar no es un crimen, pero en PR, aparentemente decir lo que piensas está muy cerca de serlo.
De entrada, quisiera explicarle algo a todos los que nos leen (o mejor dicho, a aquellos de ustedes que no lo saben ya): "Indie" no es un género musical, como por ejemplo la "salsa", "merengue" o "calipso." No. Ser "Indie" es, para muchos artistas, una circunstancia y para algunos otros, una preferencia. Significa que eres independiente, que te vales por ti mismo sin el dinero de inversionistas, sellos, manejadores o cualquier otra tercera persona no afiliada creativamente a la banda o artista. Previo a que la tecnología equiparara la pelea, ser "indie" inequívocamente significaba que tu música o expresión particular no le era accesible a una gran cantidad de personas. La distribución digital, tanto légitima como ilegítima, rompió ese tipo de barrera. Estamos viviendo en un mundo nuevo en el cual una banda que graba para un sello independiente, como por ejemplo Arcade Fire (quienes graban para el sello indie americano Merge Records) pueda alcanzar los primeros lugares en las listas de los discos más vendidos de la revista Billboard y hasta ganarse un premio Grammy. Como tal, ser indie ya no significa lo mismo que significaba hace 10 años.
Aún en este mundo nuevo, MGMT no es indie, ni tampoco lo son Babasónicos. No es porque su música sea mala ni porque a mi me gusten o no (ninguna de las dos bandas me gusta, de hecho). Esas bandas no son indie precisamente porque siempre han estado respaldadas por disqueras multinacionales y siempre, desde sus inicios, han tenido el moyero promocional corporativo apoyando sus esfuerzos. Queda, entonces, una sola conclusión a la cual arribar forzosamente: el grupo de trabajo que escogió a estos artistas genuinamente piensa que, además de ser grupos taquilleros, estos grupos tocan un género de música llamado "Indie". Esto no debe sorprender a nadie. De hecho, muchos músicos que nos envian sus demos para que los evaluemos se describen a si mismos como una banda de "indie rock". Pero que exactamente es ese "género"? Pues comparto con ustedes lo que entiendo luego de escuchar a muchas personas, músicos y no músicos, usar esa término con la misma soltura con la cual en los noventas se utilizaba el término "alternative".
Hasta hace unos diez años, tocar música "indie" significaba que tocabas algún engendro de los sonidos emitidos por bandas como Sonic Youth, Yo La Tengo, Pavement y su progenie. En años más recientes, digamos desde que salió el disco de The Postal Service en 2003, tocar música "indie" significa habitar un vecindario sónico que mezcla el pop, algo de rock y los ritmos electrónicos. Sin embargo, tanto los primeros como estos últimos se equivocan. No existe tal cosa como el género "indie". Eso es una conclusión que realmente no permite argumentos en contrario. En realidad es un asunto bastante blanco y negro. No estoy tratando de ser un pipí al respecto. Sencillamente es lo que es.
En cuanto al tema de las bandas locales que se presentarán, tengo que decir que no estoy de acuerdo con las selecciones. Aunque de estar en la posición de escoger la alineación seguramente hubiese escogido a Dávila y Circo (quienes también estuvieron respaldados por disqueras grandes durante la mayoría de su carrera), ninguna de las demás me satisface del todo. Es harto conocido que Los Petardos no son del agrado de ninguno de los colaboradores de esta página, quiero que todos sepan que esa gente tiene más derecho de estar en esa tarima que varias de las demás bandas locales escogidas. Porque? Porque aunque a mi no me agraden, son una banda enteramente independiente, que tocan en todos los lugares que puedan, con las bandas que sean. Además, promueven los shows de música independiente en el área oeste del país y eso, indistintamente de que su música me provoque retortijones o no (ok, un chiste, c'mon!), tiene suficiente valor como para garantizarles un spot en la alineación.
Las demás selecciones locales dejan a cualquiera que preste suficiente atención a lo que está pasando en el subterráneo musical boricua totalmente confundido. Quienes son Message to Venus y The Dysfunction? Su música no es particularmente buena ni, a mi entender, estas bandas tienen la exposición que tienen las demás bandas locales, quienes llevan años labrandose un porvenir de manera independiente. Según se rumora en la calle, Message to Venus logró su lugar en la alineación toda vez que son manejados por la gente de Lincoln Road, empresa que está co-produciendo el evento. Me parece que esa es una total falta de ética, la cual es comparable con un médico que se auto diagnostica y auto receta. Pero aparentemente la mentalidad de Cuca Gómez ("yo lo fabrico, yo lo produzco, yo lo vendo y yo lo recomiendo")aún permea en el mundo del espectáculo puertorriqueño. Esto, como fanático de la música, me apena grandemente.
No pensamos que sea justo, ni para los músicos ni para el público que los apoya, que lo que se supone sea el "festival de música más importante del caribe" en realidad sea una propuesta tan pobre, carente de imaginación y de la mejor música que el país tiene para ofrecer. Donde está El Macabeo en esa alineación? Donde está Tach.Dé? Donde está Diente Perro? Donde están todas las demás bandas que en efecto son el pulso y la sangre del movimiento de música independiente en el país?
Pero no me hagan caso, yo solo soy un hater...
