Friends/Amigos

They come when the wind pushes them our way...
Llegan cuando el viento los empuja hacia nosotros...

They imprint our hearts with their colors and we`re no longer the same...
Imprimen nuestros corazones con sus colores y no volvemos a ser los mismos...


And when they fly away, they stay in our souls forever.
Y cuando tienen que volar, se quedan en nuestras almas para siempre.

Have a great trip Stan!

IMAS - Immigrant Mutual Aid Society



IMAS GETTING-YOUR-DNI SEMINAR

Tuesday, September 22, 7pm

areatres, Malabia 1720, Palermo Soho, Buenos Aires

Collaboration on living-skills for immigrants in Argentina

The Immigrant Mutual Aid Society will hold its first seminar on September 22, 2009 at areatres, Malabia 1720 (behind Starbucks), Palermo Soho, Buenos Aires.

This first seminar, conducted by Argentine immigration lawyer, Solange Verón, will begin at 7:00pm and will deal with DNI and legal residency with an emphasis on citizens of countries outside Argentina's Patria Grande.

Ms. Verón is a graduate of the University of Law at UBA and currently performs politics and government studies in a joint degree program with UN de San Martín and Georgetown University of Washington, DC. She has worked with city and national government for 10 years.

The presentation will focus on obtaining legal residency in the most general terms and will be conducted in English. After the presentation the audience will be encouraged to participate in a question and answer session regarding their legal residency experiences and plans. No questions regarding DNI will be considered too general.

Future seminars concerning DNI and legal residency are planned with specific emphasis on the various stages of the process. All instruction will be directed toward both do-it-yourself efforts and those represented by legal counsel.

IMAS is grateful for the generous support of areatres in providing its flexible workplace solutions and work environments for this seminar. (www.areatresworkplace.com)

Colaboración para inmigrantes en Argentina


La red Immigrant Mutual Aid Society llevará a cabo su primer seminario el día 22 de Septiembre del corriente en areatres, Malabia 1720, en el barrio de Palermo de la ciudad de Buenos Aires.

Este primer seminario será conducido por la abogada argentina especialista en inmigración, Dra. Solange Verón, comenzará a las 19 hs y tratará acerca de cómo obtener DNI y residencia legal, en esta ocasión, con énfasis en la situación de ciudadanos de países más allá de Sudamérica.

La Dra. Verón es graduada de la Facultad de Derecho de la UBA, actualmente especializándose en política y gobierno en el programa conjunto de la Universidad de San Martín y Georgetown University of Washington, DC; habiendo a su vez trabajado por más de 10 años en posiciones a nivel gubernamental tanto en la ciudad como a nivel nacional.

Esta presentación se enfocará en la obtención de residencia legal en general y se llevará a cabo en inglés. Luego de la misma, la audiencia podrá participar en una sesión de preguntas y respuestas en lo referente a sus experiencias y planes en cuanto a su residencia legal. Serán consideradas todas las preguntas relacionadas con la obtención de documento nacional de identidad.

Asimismo se han previsto futuros seminarios para cada etapa del proceso de obtención de residencia legal. Las sugerencias estarán orientadas tanto en el sentido del hágalo-usted-mismo como para aquellos casos que requieran representación legal.

IMAS agradece profundamente el generoso aporte de areatres al proveer su espacio de trabajo flexible, así como sus soluciones y ambiente de trabajo totalmente novedosos para este seminario. (www.areatresworkplace.com)

Margot and the posts

- Are you concerned Negrita?
- Hi 99, a little
... remember my friend Margarita?
- I have the feeling I´ve met her once. Isn´t she 2008 milk cow National prize winner?
- Right. Margarita was able to give 28 liters of milk per day when milked w
ith tango music.

- What a cow!
- Yeah... and all the bulls in the ranch were dying for her. When she was present the rest of us were invisible to our males...
- I didn´t know cows could be jealous.
-
Oh no! Of course we can be jealous but none of us were jealous of Margarita. We were proud of her and everybody wanted to be her friend and give milk with her charm.
- Why do you speak in past tense?

- Way too much applause and posts finally got into her soul. After so much of those posts watching she became obsessed with both applause and posts.
- So?
- After a while the posts around the tambo became boring for her. She was also aware that Argentina´s dairy industry is sinking and she decided that since a champion like her was so badly paid here she should take off to conquer other pastures.

- What did she do?
- She traveled the world and tried everything that had to do with posts. Everything that had to do with applause. Everything that had to do with tango music.

- So she must be happy, I told the cow that was still looking concerned
- I´m not so sure... I have just received a postcard form her. She´s in Paris. She´s working with children and she´s listening to tango music 24 hours a day but she says that she´ll come back because she doesn´t like the weather. I don´t believe it.
- Why not?

- For one, milk cows don´t like children because children don´t like milk.

- I liked milk when I was a kid.

- That was chocolate milk, 99, sighed the cow, also I noticed in the photo that she looks dry and sad. She bleached some spots of her hair and she´s not attracting bulls any more.
- Maybe the music still makes her happy and she really doesn´t like the weather...
- I don´t think so. Tango 24 hours a day? Come on, gimme a break! said Negrita a little pissed. Be serious 99, who cares about the w
eather in Paris? They don´t have palm trees like in Buenos Aires but it´s still a great place to live in. We´re talking Paris!
- And you´re concern about her coming back because tambos are closing and she might end in a slaughter house?

- No!

- Sorry, I don´t get it Negrita
- Look at this, said the cow unrolling the postcard and showing it to me, You know nothing about tango, do you 99?

- Not much...

- She changed her name to Margot for Christ sake!, she added, “Ya no sos mi Margarita, ahora te dicen Margot” Does it ring any bells? It´s about her soul. You´ve learned nothing today, and she left really pissed at me.

I don´t understand cows at all and I still don´t have a clue of what she was saying. I´ll ask her again next time when she´s in a better mood.

Or maybe I better check some tango lyrics before doing so.

Lose-lose players

Too sad.
DAA has been intervened due to 4 individuals that played the lose-lose way.
Good news is there was an extremely generous win-win player Chairman, Yanqui Mike, that resigned before the whole chapter might have been de-certified.
God bless his soul.
God bless the hundreds of win-win souls that supported him and understood.
God help the other 4.
Watch for DAA elections in January 2009
