During the 1990s, a so-called “Special Period” that included a limited opening-up to the outside world, small independent news agencies emerged and began to circulate news and information outside of the government’s traditional control. A former state TV journalist, González was the joint editor of one of these independent news agencies, called Cuba Press. These new independent journalists could not however print newspapers or magazines as access to printing presses is strictly regulated and individual print publications are illegal. González managed to overcome these obstacles and bring out the first issue of De Cuba in December 2002. A substantial, many-paged magazine intended to appear every two months, it had to content itself with being circulated clandestinely within dissident circles.
But readers were interested. The combination of the Varela Project and De Cuba was too much for a government that does not readily tolerate protests.

Independence Push in Catalonia Still a Problem Say Commentators. "The people have spoken and now the situation is clearer and more complicated. " That was the assessment of Artur Mas, leader of the Catalonian separatist party Convergence and Union (CiU), after the votes were counted following weekend elections in the north-eastern Spanish region.
A glance at the results makes it difficult to argue. On the one hand, it is clear that a majority of voters in the region, which includes Spain's second-largest city of Barcelona, would like to see a referendum held on independence. But they disagree on which separatist party is best equipped to run the region.
In total, almost two-thirds of the seats in regional parliament were won by political parties that are in favor of a referendum on the region's secession from Spain. As such, for any referendum to go forward, the two parties would likely have to form a coalition. The vote took place against the looming backdrop of Spain's economic woes and financial uncertainty. Business daily Handelsblatt writes: Arsenal: current program. French filmmaker Robert Bresson (1907–1999) is one of the most radical and unconventional artists in the history of film.
In the 13 feature films that he shot between 1943 and 1983, he developed his own individual film language that was "written in moving pictures and sounds" and replaced dramatic acting. He formulated his thoughts and ideas about the aesthetics of cinema in Notes on the Cinematographer that was published in 1975. Bresson's spare style ensures his films cannot be mistaken for those of another. In formal terms, his films are rigorous, elliptical, anti-dramatic and reduced to the bare essentials. The scenes unfold in a linear fashion, unburdened by emphasis or decorative accessories. His imagery is very simple - Bresson always used a 55mm lens that best suits the human eye. From his third film onwards, he stopped working with professionals, preferring amateurs, whom he called "models" and prevented from "acting". We will show all 13 of Bresson's feature films before 7. English Theater Berlin Brings Experimental 'Lab' Project Back | NPR Berlin.
The on-again, off-again theater project "The Lab" is back with more thought-provoking productions. The Lab, founded in 2003, is dedicated to contemporary English-language plays from around the world. It has staged a series of performances at the English Theater Berlin, which encourages the audience to participate and voice their opinion.
Veteran actor Tom Strauss and original founder Daniel Brunet are The Lab's curators. "One of our primary goals with The Lab, with this new configuration," Brunet says "is to make sure that our audience and our artists have as much of a connection to the greater theater scene of Berlin as possible. In response to the so-called "black face debate" in Germany, Brunet has curated "Colorblind," a program consisting of performances, readings, and discussions that will run until the end of October at the English Theater Berlin. One of the plays is "Unschuld" by Dea Loher, which saw some controversy after two white actors performed in black makeup.
