Fiesta en ChinaTown, Belgrano, Buenos Aires, Argentina. Fiesta de Año Nuevo en el Barrio Chino de Belgrano
Este 2011 los festejos del Año Nuevo en el Barrio Chino de Belgrano serán el domingo 6 de Febrero y durarán todo el día. Para esta ocasión, la calle Arribeños, sobre la que en mayor medida se emplaza el Barrio Chino, se cierra para el tránsito vehicular y queda exclusivamente de uso peatonal. Sobre ella se suelen colocar puestos callejeros de comidas y bebidas típicas de China y Japón, también Taiwan y Vietnam. Generalmente se construye un escenario en la intersección de Arribeños y Olazabal donde suele haber exhibición de distintas artes marciales y espectáculos de música típica oriental.
También se lleva a cabo el tradicional desfile del léon y el dragón (una suerte de marionetas manejadas con personas que se colocan por debajo) que al ritmo de percusión, van tocando a la gente y a los comercios prodigando buena suerte y prosperidad.
Desde el 2008 este festival cuenta con apoyo institucional ya que el Gobierno de la Ciudad auspicia y participa activamente de la organización. En los últimos años se han hecho presente en dicha fiesta, distintos representantes gubernamentales como el Secretario de Cultura de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires y el embajador de China en Argentina.

El Año Nuevo Chino 4709 será celebrado el domingo próximo con una fiesta popular callejera en el barrio porteño de Belgrano, donde habrá puestos de comidas y numerosas actividades, como artes marciales, el tradicional baile del dragón y un espectáculo de tango, informaron los organizadores.
Al escenario habitual, que estará en Olazabal y Arribeños, este añó se sumará otro en Montañeses y Mendoza, y los puestos se ubicarán por Arribeños, Mendoza y Montañeses, para permitir una fluida circulación del público.
En ese espacio, la colectividad china-taiwanesa porteña expondrá aspectos de su cultura, con muestras de escritura con pluma, budismo, astrología china, feng shui y gastronomía de su país.
También se presentará un espectáculo de tango, con músicos y bailarines argentinos y chinos, que reflejará la profunda integración cultural entre ambas comunidades.
“El Año Nuevo Chino se inicia con la llegada de la segunda luna nueva tras el solsticio de invierno boreal (22 de diciembre). La fecha exacta varía entre los 30 y 59 días posteriores, con lo que puede caer entre el 21 de enero o el 21 de febrero”, señala un comunicado de los organizadores.
Este año, el 4709, está regido por el Conejo de Metal, animal que según su tradición representa la sensibilidad, la gracia, la calidez, la empatía y el cariño.
Los festejos son organizados por la Asociación Barrio Chino de Buenos Aires, la Asociación Amigos del Barrio Chino de Buenos Aires y la Asociación Cultural Chino Argentina, con el apoyo del Ente de Turismo de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires y del Centro de Gestión y Participación 13.
Las actividades comenzarán a las 10, cuando abrirá la Feria Gastronómica y Cultural, en tanto la inauguración oficial, en la que hablarán autoridades de las entidades organizadoras y del gobierno porteño, se iniciará a las 12.
La fiesta callejera empezará a las 14.20, con la Ceremonia de “Clavado de Pupilas” para despertar al Dragón, a lo que seguirán exhibiciones de artes marciales a cargo de diversos grupos, intercaladas con tambores japonses “taiko” en ambos escenarios, a los que subirán leones y dragones de fantasía.
También habrá números de ventriloquía y humorismo, demostraciones de yoga y danzas tradicionales chinas y el espectáculo Tango de la Integración, con orquesta y bailarines
asiáticos y argentinos. (Télam).

The Buenos Aires Toy Museum, Historieta. Esta historia es el producto de un proyecto social y colectivo que comenzamos a desarrollar un tiempo atrás.
Comenzó hace un par de años a raíz de una idea que rondaba nuestra propia práctica; producto del trabajo de investigación que venimos realizando sobre la historia de juegos y juguetes argentinos. A partir de nuestro propio trabajo comenzamos a descubrir una amplia gama de improntas culturales y sociales en la producción de juguetes y juegos. Pronto nos dimos cuenta que se trataba de representaciones culturales de gran importancia, mucho más de lo que hubiéramos podido imaginar. En tanto se trata de reflejos objetivados de nuestro presente, pasado… objetos ideologizados de gran valor semiótico y semántico. Asi, frente a tamaño descubrimiento, se nos ocurrió crear un juguete-juego-conceptual de características multimediales, que de alguna manera pudiera reflejar nuestro tiempo, nuestras ideas, nuestros sueños y esperanzas.
La historia narra de manera ficcionalizada una de nuestras posibles visiones del mundo. Contempla de manera profunda nuestros pensamientos e ideas del mundo, y busca por medio de la palabra, el arte y la expresión cultural amplia dar cuenta de este presente.
Los Onas de la Patagonia Argentina, de la región ligada a Tierra del Fuego siempre han tenido un atractivo particular en mi propia historia –Argentina y personal- y como tal, se fue gestando como interlocutor imaginario de una historia a narrar. Ellos mismos, como referentes reales de un mundo complejo, cambiante y que se niega a cumplir designios absurdos de modernidad infundada han sido gestores de su propia historia. Por su valentía y coraje, aparecen ante mi mirada como exponentes claros de una cultura rica y profunda.
La historia es narrada con auxilio de todo tipo de expresiones culturales y artísticas que pueden aportar a gestar un cuadro complejo, rico en sensaciones, personajes y escenarios.
La historia comienza en Buenos Aires, con un hombre común escribiendo una historia… tal como estoy haciendo en este momento, cuando en un brevisimo instante su realidad muta, es como si se abriera un mundo espacio-temporal alternativo---- Aparece de repente en tierras lejanas, y allí comenzara a transitar un camino de aventuras y experiencias vitales realmente significativas.
Espero disfruten estas, las primeras de muchas entregas en las que iremos narrando, esta, nuestra historia.

National Day of ArgentinaMay 24, 2010, 5:44pmToday (Tuesday) is the 200th Anniversary of Argentina’s 1810 May Revolution which was the last in a series of political events that installed the first government in Argentina not controlled by Spain. There was no violence but it is called a revolution because it ushered dramatic change in Argentina’s political, social, and economical landscapes.
Argentina is the second largest country in South America, constituted as a federation of 23 provinces and an autonomous city, Buenos Aires.
It is the eighth largest country in the world in land area and the largest among Spanish-speaking nations.
Argentina’s population is around 36 million, with 85 percent of European origin, mostly Spanish and Italian. More than 90 percent are Roman Catholics. The country has abundant natural resources, a well-educated population, an export-oriented agricultural sector, and a relatively diversified industrial base.
Argentina is a full member of the Mercosur (Mercado Comun del Sur) – the Southern Common Market in English – together with Brazil, Paraguay, Uruguay, and Venezuela, and five associate members, namely, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru. Argentina has emphasized Mercosur, which has some supranational legislative functions, as its first international ;priority.
Argentina is a founding signatory and permanent consulting member of the Antarctic Treaty System and the Antarctic Treaty Secretariat is based in Buenos Aires.
Similarities in culture, religion, and history have brought the Philippines and Argentina close to each other. Their peoples share the same passionate temperament and religiosity, as well as fierce commitment to freedom and human rights.

Argentina's bicentennial, drom todat till the 25th of May, 2010, strating Today till this Tuesday, 25th of May, 2010: Argentina celebrates its bicentennial year with a weekend of parades, music and fireworks in the capital Buenos Aires.

Scientists in the US have succeeded in developing the first living cell to be controlled entirely by synthetic DNA. "This is the first time any synthetic DNA has been in complete control of a cell," said Dr Venter.
'New industrial revolution'
Dr Venter and his colleagues hope eventually to design and build new bacteria that will perform useful functions.
"I think they're going to potentially create a new industrial revolution," he said.
