The "Quinta do Mocho" neighborhood has been considered for many years as a dangerous area. Situated a few kilometers from Lisbon (Portugal), in the LOURES municipality, the hood is very poor and composed of a huge majority of African immigrants, working on Loures industries around the hood.
Many of those workers have been relocated there when other near-by ghettos has been destroyed and rehabilitated.
The "O Bairro i o Mundo" festival has already produced something like 25 murals by portuguese artists in order to change the image of the area and is now starting to invite international artists ...
Mural situated in the heart of the neighborhood at the crossing of Rua agostinho and Rua Pero Escobar.

Imagine the smell of a combination of urine, animal feces and decaying flesh, with a flavour of mint you keep under your nose as a "gas mask"!
A Tallahassee, Florida- based group, advocating an end to U.S. involvement in the war in Iraq and returning all troops home is hanging more than 4,000 white origami cranes in the sculpture garden at the entrance to Railroad Square in downtown Tallahassee.
The debut of the installation will be from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Friday, December 7th and remain up until the end of the year, weather permitting. It will be illuminated Dec. 7 and 8th.
The “Cranes,” a universal sign of peace, represent the number of coalition soldiers who have died in the Iraq war. The installation also honors Julian McMackin Woodall, 21, a local Marine killed in Iraq in May, who loved to make the cranes as a child. Julian's mother Meredith McMackin has been involved with the sponsoring group since long before his death. He would have turned 22 .Tues., Dec. 4, the day the exhibit started going up.
The installation is sponsored by the local group “Tallahasseeans Who Believe It’s Time to Come Home.” The group was responsible for the luminary memorial at Lake Ella in March that commemorated the 4th anniversary of the war. Since the luminary event, almost another 700 troops have died.
Su Ecenia , the group's founder, said, “Hundreds of people in our community participated in folding, stringing and hanging these cranes. We are unified in our desire to see this war end and for the safe return home of our troops.” '
The 4,000 cranes were made by hundreds of local people including members of spiritual communities, schools, a Girl Scout troop and private citizens. The exhibit was designed by artist Maureen Sullivan.
If you'd like to get info so as to do this project in your community, contact me and I'll tell you how to get in touch with the organizer. Su is a homemaker and former nurse who after she saw a documentary showing injured Iraqi children decided to do what she could to draw a quick end to the war. We'd love for this idea to be adopted by other cities.

Oh yes, I'm a happy worker! It used to be that an employer had to do a background check on you themselves before you got hired, on your credit and criminal record, but also if they were really nosy, on your private life. Now, thanks to the Santa Barbara startup company Social Intelligence Corporation, it will do the research about you for the company. In other words, they have voluntarily become a tool of Big Brother and have sold us all out. They search your Youtube, Flickr, Facebook and other media looking for personal information about your private life, such as political bent, sexual orientation and interests, biases, religion, and anything else they think a potential employer might be interested in. It is the fine people at Social Intelligence Corp. who help decide your career, people who obviously must have no personal life, creativity or humanity because they were screened themselves before being hired at Social Intelligence Corp.
When an employer finds out something about you, you will be informed of it. You can then remove the offending photo, video or comment, but Social Intelligence Corp. will still keep it on file for seven years.
This photo has been edited for possible offending objects and associations and thus would hopefully (it's up to Social Intelligence Corp.) be of no interest to any hiring body.
The Province has made two significant changes to the Employment Standards Act to better support workers both during the COVID-19 public health emergency and in the long term. Read more: news.gov.bc.ca/21868
