Once there you can enjoy the beaches, the tapas bars and wide range of tour possibilities in the surrounding mountains and along the coast. Alhambra Palace is only an hour away.

POPSCost of each "Green Job" = $800,000
In addition, about two-thirds of those "green" jobs were just to set up the energy source in construction, fabrication, installation, marketing and administration. Only 1 in 10 of the green jobs created was a permanent job operating and maintaining the renewable sources of energy. Each wind-industry job created in Spain required a subsidy of about $1.4 million. Overall, the average subsidy cost for each green job was about $800,000 (571,138 euros). And to create about 50,000 green jobs, Spain lost 110,000 jobs elsewhere. The high cost of green energy predictably drove energy-intensive Spanish companies and industries out of Spain to countries with cheaper carbon-based energy, while the cost to Spanish taxpayers of renewable-energy subsidies was "enormous There is much more in the report, which at less than 50 pages would make useful reading for our elected representatives. Those who are worried about global warming may, after studying this report, still want to subsidize renew

POPSThe Genius of Photography vs. Susan Sontag's On Photography
|quote]Sontag argues that the proliferation of photographic practice has long begun to establish within people a "chronic voyeuristic relation" to the world around them. And that therefore the meaning of all events is somewhat leveled to an unhealthy degree. As she argues, this fosters an attitude of anti-intervention. Within this it's felt that the photographer should leave their subject, whether it be a person or an event, to its own devices while being photographed, regardless of the moral character of the subject. The justification comes in the idea that the resulting photographs will be documents, representations of events already in motion, in the name of truth and enlightenment. Sontag goes even further to say that the individual who seeks to photographically record cannot intervene, and that the person who intervenes cannot then faithfully record, for the two aims contradict each other. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/On_Photography Just something I'm pondering.

POPSGipsy Kings But they began playing rumba flamenca because "we liked to watch pretty girls dance," said Nicolas. Latin American beats had been joined with flamenco by gitanos since at least the 1950s, mixing complex strumming with rhythmic, percussive tapping on their guitars' tops. The new Reyes generation — soon to meet and join up with three guitar-playing brothers from the Baliardo family — began creating more pop-oriented songs. They played at roma parties and at street corners until they got their chance to record under the group's new name, Gipsy Kings. Sharp-eyed individuals might have noted that all the left-handed members of the group play guitars strung upside-down; this is usually as a result of the individuals' not having their own guitars when growing-up. Borrowing and playing a right-hander's the wrong way up was the only way to learn.

POPSAnaïs Nin From being a cult figure of the early feminist movement, Anais later rose to international prominence with her writing. She is best known for her diaries but also produced a number of novels and a prose poem in surrealistic style as well as wonderful erotic short stories, published posthumously. Characterized by the use of powerful and, at times, disquieting imagery, her work reveals great sensitivity and perception. In 1973 she received an honorary doctorate from Philadelphia College of Art. She was elected to the National Institute of Arts and Letters in 1974.<<

POPSJoey "Speak English" Vento (Geno's Cheesesteaks) does not represent South Philly
A student of history, Jacovini can talk at length about Italian-Americans in the civil rights movement and how Italian-Americans were the second most likely group to be lynched in the South. He describes how in the 1870s—in the streets of Northern Liberties and South Philly—Philadelphia's native (aka English) Americans fought Gangs of New York-style battles with the Irish. And how the Irish in turn refused to let the newly arrived Italians use their Catholic churches. Today, “the cycle of the last person who came into the country stepping on the next person to come into the country has been broken. That's the real story.” He points to how the pastor of St. Paul's invited Mexican South Philadelphians to carry a statue of Our Lady of Guadeloupe—the patron saint of Mexico—in the traditional (and very Italian) procession of saints. “To me, this was the Italian community's way of welcoming their new Mexican neighbors. I'm proud because no one welcomed us when we first arrived.
