City attempts to block Toronto Stop the Cuts Network Public Meeting; Meeting to go ahead despite threats from the city.

StarBuzz Weekly, Toronto-City attempts to block Toronto Stop the Cuts Network Public Meeting; Meeting to go ahead despite threats from the city.

Phone: 416-826-4796
On the web: http://torontostopthecuts.com and www.facebook.com/stopthecuts, Email: tostopthecuts@gmail.com

In a move that Rob Ford's critics are calling anti-democratic and an attack on free speech, the city is attempting to stop the Mass Meeting to Stop Ford’s Cuts from taking place. They are shutting down Dufferin Grove Park, where the meeting is scheduled from 12pm to 5pm on Saturday, September 10. Organizers from the Toronto Stop the Cuts Network say they are expecting thousands of residents to attend, to write a Toronto Declaration,  ‘a vision for the Toronto people need and deserve’.


The city has cancelled all programming at Dufferin Grove Park for the day. There will be none of the usual services at this busy park on a Saturday - no gardening, no food cart, no water around the playground. “Shutting down Dufferin Grove Park is an attempt to drive a wedge between Toronto Stop the Cuts and community members who rely on park services”, says Yogi Acharya, a member of Stop the Cuts. “It is also intended to prevent park staff, unionized with CUPE local 79, from participating in or helping with this meeting.”

“These heavy handed tactics against the most democratic of things – a meeting in a public park – shows that Ford and many in City Hall have no respect for Torontonians who disagree with their agenda”, says event
organizer Constanza Farias. “The message is clear: if you do not support the gutting of city services and the privatization of everything that isn’t nailed down, you have no rights here in Ford Nation”

Toronto Stop the Cuts Network is moving ahead with this meeting and urging more people to come out. “We were expecting nearly 2,000 people at first, but after this ridiculous move, I am sure more people are going to show up.” says Toronto Stop the Cuts Network member Jessica Lyons. “This is a pathetic attempt to thwart a movement that can’t be stopped. It shows their weakness and desperation. Ford obviously does not believe in democracy, but the people of Toronto will stand up to this bully”.

Event Information:
Mass Meeting to Stop Ford’s Cuts

Award winning September 11-themed documentary producer featured on Fox Network for 9/11 anniversary

Producer for award winning “The Cross and The Towers” documentary speaks on film’s controversy


StarBuzz Weekly, Toronto-Sep 06, 2011 - Montreal, Canada – A legal battle  has taken center stage between New York city officials and atheist interest group American Atheists Inc. over  two charred metal beams in the form of a ‘cross’ which were rescued from the twin towers rubble at ground zero.  Scott Perkins, executive producer of “The Cross and The Towers” documentary shares his story with Megan Kelly at Fox and Fox and Friends, in anticipation of the 10th anniversary of the September 11 attacks on the World Trade Center in New York City . During critical rescue operations,  the contentious beams were alleged to have been a spontaneous source of inspiration to certain firefighters and first-responders at the scene, a position which has angered an atheist group seeking an injunction against the display of the “cross” during the highly anticipated memorial service at Ground Zero, to be attended by President Obama and other notable officials.



View trailer here:
http://411films.com/the-cross-and-the-towers-instant-str ...

“The proposed lawsuit appears to hinge on the frustration of an atheist interest group with regards to purported religious symbols like the steel cross being included in a memorial such as 9/11.  The film 'The Cross and Towers' in fact tells the story of how more than a few of  New York’s firemen and policemen drew strength for a few moments between moments of panic, from this unlikeliest of Christian symbols perched amid the wreckage of the twin towers. The pieces of metal have since been included in a range of memorials marking the tragedy. To be frank, as the international distributor of the film, I am happy to announce the controversy has attracted a lot of attention from worldwide TV and DVD outlets which we work with: says Dan Shannon, of ID Communications, the films international TV distributor.

“When we made this film it won prizes and was recognized at several international film festivals. Now on the eve of the 10th anniversary at ground zero, I think we have the only authoritative and complete re-telling of the story behind the cross at ground zero. Today if the lawsuit serves as a platform to allow the stories of these bravest of American men and women to be heard by a wider audience, we feel it will have served a noble purpose” says the film’s producer Scott Perkins of Crossing Hollow Films. We are pleased to be receiving this much attention on the eve of the 10th anniversary for our story.

The 54-minute documentary won Audience Choice Award at Palm Beach International Festival, Best Film at Gloria Film Festival, Crystal Heart at Heartland Film Festival and finalist in USA Film Festival.

The group selects officers who preside over the meetings, and remaining members are assigned other duties on a rotating basis, so everyone is actively involved. Discussions take place at each meeting, and participants also deliver short impromptu and prepared speeches while learning to apply the principles of listening, thinking and speaking.


This exciting opportunity will take place at Brampton Library for eight weeks, beginning
Saturday, October 1 to November 19, 2011. The sessions will be held in the Auditorium at the Library’s
Four Corners Branch, 65 Queen St. E from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.


Space is limited to 24 teens. Youth interested in this free offering should register starting September 6 by calling the Library at (905) 793-4636 or visiting one of the Library locations.

Initially choreographed as a series of solos and duets, the Canadian premiere of Fallen Rain is a work for seven dancers and 6 musicians in a dynamic evening of high-energy and lyrical dance with pulsating live music and English spoken text. Animated by the poetic and kinetic world of dance in courtesan communities, the repertoire is drawn largely from nineteenth-century Tanjavur, South India. Tanjavur is historically the royal city of South India, nurturing the arts and is the birthplace of Bharatanatyam dance.


On January 4, 2011, inDANCE became the first Canadian dance company to have ever been commissioned by the current prince of Tanjavur, His Highness Babaji Bhosale to present Fallen Rain at the ancient Tanjavur palace where these dances were traditionally performed in the 19th century. This was a huge honour for inDANCE and the kind of excellent work the company is fostering in Canada.


Fallen Rain is a metaphor for erotic experience, and the choreography of this work weaves lyric poetry into a dynamic, movement-based interpretation. Fallen Rain includes rare genres of dance, which have never been presented on the Canadian stage.


Performers: Nalin Bisnath, Sreyashi Chakraborti, Hari Krishnan, Hiroshi Miyamoto, Srividya Natarajan, Shobana Raveendran and Vinod Shankar.
Musicians: Davesh Soneji (conductor), Sheela Bharath (vocals), Gowri Shankar (percussion), Thanathevy Mithratheva (violin), Ajanthie Madanakaran (flute).

The premiere performance on Oct 1 is presented as part of the Festival of South Asian Literature and the Arts and the University of Toronto’s The Centre for South Asian Studies.

Savour Stratford Culinary Festival Reveals 2011 Poster at Launch Party

StarBuzz Weekly, Toronto-Monday, August 15^th, 2011  STRATFORD, ON -Savour Stratford Perth County Culinary Festival, awarded “Ontario’s Best Culinary Experience” in 2010 by Ontario Tourism, will be even better in 2011. This two day celebration of farmers, artisans, chefs, musicians and food lovers takes place in the heart of Stratford’s heritage garden district and historic Market Square September 24 & 25.


The 2011 festival poster, designed by Stratford native Jack Dylan, was revealed at a community launch in City Hall Auditorium, August 15. Posters were presented to MPP John Wilkinson and Councillor Paul Nickel, City of Stratford, both strong supporters of the culinary festival.


A call was extended to Stratford and area artists requesting examples of their work along with their vision of a poster celebrating our award winning culinary festival. Finalists were reviewed and Jack Dylan, international illustrator, was awarded the commission. The idea originated with restaurant owners Susan Dunfield and Bronwyn Linley who each offered dinner for two at their respective restaurants to accompany an honorarium to the winning artist.


Jack Dylan expressed his inspiration in creating the festival poster. “I grew up in Stratford and lived along the Avon River, on William Street,” said Jack in a recent interview. “I wanted to show York Street – a view of that bank that shows the downtown – and I was also thinking about Tom Patterson Island and the wonderful willow trees. Even the chef in the poster was inspired by a friend of mine who’s now a chef here in Stratford.” A limited edition of 50 posters signed and numbered by Mr. Dylan are available for sale at $50 each. Additional posters will also be available for sale ($10) at Stratford Tourism Alliance with proceeds supporting the festival.


Danielle Brodhagen, Director of the Culinary Festival, presented the new website www.savourstratford.com and the 2011 culinary festival highlights.
·        The Festival expands into the historic Market Square with a culinary stage and entertainment Saturday and Sunday.


·        Montréal chef Chuck Hughes, winner of Iron Chef America and host of the popular Food Network show, Chuck’s Day Off, is coming to Stratford.  “Chuck’s Night Out,” a cocktail party on Friday, September 23^rd will launch the culinary festival at the Stone Maiden Inn. Chuck will be participating in the festival throughout the weekend.
·        Chef Connie DeSousa, Top Chef Canada finalist and chef/owner of CHARCUT Roast House, Calgary, comes to Stratford’s Culinary Festival where she will host “Breakfast with Connie”, Celebrating Women in Food at the Stratford Country Club on Sunday, September 25^th as well as leading a charcuterie tasting workshop.
·        A Southern-style BBQ dinner “Ribs in the Square” barbecued by Boss Hogs, awarded the best Canadian Rib team in 2010, takes place on Saturday, September 24.
·        Saturday night’s BBQ, Blues and Brews is a party you won’t want to miss as beer tastings and street food from Stratford restaurateurs combine with the music of Monkey Junk!, winner of Best Blues Artist at the Canadian Independent Music Awards and Winner of the 2010 Blues Music Award for Best New Artist’s Debut.

Masala! Mehndi! Masti!’s all encompassing activities!

StarBuzz Weekly, Toronto- Going beyond movies and music, Masala! Mehndi! Masti! (Spice! Henna! Fun!) will also offer theatre, comedy, art, photography, cooking demos, serious talk on the stigma of HIV and plenty of workshops.

For theatre, M!M!M! will stage two plays along two totally different themes. The first one, in honour of Nobel Prize winner Rabindranath Tagore’s 150th birthday, is Sacrifice (Visarjan), considered to be his finest drama. The other one is “Dirty Pakistani Lingerie”, an adult play by Aizzah Fatima about 6 American Pakistani females struggling to find their place at the chaotic juncture of two extremely different cultures.

‘Komic Sutra’, an hour of no-holds barred adult comedy by Nitin Mirani and Crystal Ferrier, will test the limits of your humour. Come prepared!

For its literature component, 3 non-Indians, Mariellen Ward, Sylvia Fraser and Katherine Matthews will relate their love for India, its culture, mores and movies! They have written books, short stories, maintain blogs, websites and tweet on their experiences! This will be a sublime panel of discussion.

How many of you remember Monika Deol, host of Canada’s top dance and music show, ‘Electric Circus’? For those who do and for those who want to find out, you must come to see this icon of South Asian youth as she talks about breaking through stereotypes and making history!
For the pièce de résistance of our food section, Toronto’s ace chef, Roshni Mansukhani, winner of the Knorr competition and most recently champion of Food Network’s ‘Chopped’ competition, will dazzle the audience with her ‘sizzling’ skills- a must for all foodies. There will also be samplings.
The Royal Ontario Museum will showcase the beauty of ornament where one can learn about the artistic styles, craftsmanship and craft traditions of South Asia’s many culturally diverse regions.
The artists’ walkway will exhibit sculpture, paintings and photography by Andrew Adams, Farhad Nargol- O’Neill and Che Kothari; inspired by South Asia’s depth, colours and emotions and all woven together as a beautiful tapestry. There will also be a very novel and interesting section on Graffiti art by Javid, inspired by Arabic calligraphy and portraiture.

A chillin’ in your brown skin session will engage the audience in a panel about the stigma of HIV with educators from the Alliance for South Asian AIDS Prevention (ASAAP).

A Rhythm of Rajasthan Workshop will discuss and demonstrate their dance and craft led by our visitors from Rajasthan. Who knows they might even teach you to dance on knives and nails, the ultimate in their dance routine!

There will also be a midnight yoga session conducted by Yogapalooza; a bachcha party and jam session and a kids’ corner with loads of creative activity for children; and a Senior Desi Idol contest.

Food stalls, market vendor kiosks and mehndi (henna) parlours will be available throughout the festival!
