Egyptians send pizzaIt's historical fact that Wisconsin was the birthplace of many progressive ideas, including worker's compensation, public employee unions, child labor laws, and more. Some even have advanced convincing arguments that the nationwide sports stadium phenomenon known as The Wave originated at Camp Randall Stadium in Madison during boring late '60s Badger games.
Now add to the Wisconsin innovation list this: Protest Pizza via Web. During last spring's massive protests in Madison relating to Gov. Walker's union-busting bill, sympathizers in Egypt and nearly 50 other countries ordered pizza by email for hungry demonstrators surrounding the state Capitol. The idea originted with sympathizers across Wisconsin and quickly spread worldwide.
Pizza by Web has now become a part of long-form, sit-in protests elsewhere. The current mass protests on Wall Street in New York City are the latest venue. From a post at FireDogLake.com:

This looks big...

By all accounts,
IMAS' Tuesday's seminar will be very well attended! Due in no small part to the generous contribution of meeting rooms and facilities contributed by
areatres workplace to the efforts.
"
Do it Yourself DNI / Legal Residency" will be two hours of presentation and question-answer regarding absolutely anything you'd like to know about DNI and/or legal residency here in Argentina. It's Tuesday at 7pm and IMAS askes that you RSVP just so there is some idea as to how many of us will be there.
The presentation will be conducted by Solange Verón, an Argentine immigration lawyer with a track record of helping English speakers obtain their DNI.
Today's WaPo on Argentine Beef

Great little article on the decline of grass-fed beef in Argentina in
today's Washington Post.
It also has the best (most realistic) photos of raising cattle here in Buenos Aires Province that I have seen.
