  • Rhythmic Foundation and Accompaniment
    Introduction To Flamenco: Rhythmic Foundation and Accompaniment by "Flamenco Chuck" Keyser P.O. Box 1292 Santa Barbara, CA 93102 [email protected] http://users.aol.com/BuleriaChk/private/flamenco.html © Charles H. Keyser, Jr. 1993 (Painting by Rowan Hughes) Flamenco Philosophy IA My own view of Flamenco is that it is an artistic expression of an intense awareness of the existential human condition. It is an effort to come to terms with the concept that we are all "strangers and afraid, in a world we never made"; that there is probably no higher being, and that even if there is he/she (or it) is irrelevant to the human condition in the final analysis. The truth in Flamenco is that life must be lived and death must be faced on an individual basis; that it is the fundamental responsibility of each man and woman to come to terms with their own alienation with courage, dignity and humor, and to support others in their efforts. It is an excruciatingly honest art form. For flamencos it is this ever-present consciousness of death that gives life itself its meaning; not only as in the tragedy of a child's death from hunger in a far-off land or a senseless drive-by shooting in a big city, but even more fundamentally in death as a consequence of life itself, and the value that must be placed on life at each moment and on each human being at each point in their journey through it. And it is the intensity of this awareness that gave the Gypsy artists their power of expression.

  • 1 One of Many Interesting Demo-Geographic Processes In
    TOPIC/SESSION 401 (REGIONAL AND URBAN ISSUES) GUIDELINES OF SECOND HOMES LOCATION IN SPANISH URBAN POPULATION: SOCIAL DEMOGRAPHIC AND TERRITORIAL ANALYSIS. JUAN ANTONIO MÓDENES CABRIZO Department of Geography, Autonomous University of Barcelona and Demographic Studies Centre JULIAN LÓPEZ COLÁS Demographic Studies Centre (Barcelona, Spain) BRENDA YÉPEZ MARTÍNEZ Demographic Studies Centre (Barcelona, Spain) One of many interesting demo-geographic processes in Spain become the expansion of the second homes and the consequent transformation of wide zones close to the big cities, coasts, and interior zones which turned to be increasingly attractive. Most second homes are purchased for personal reasons. In some cases owners use their second home as a sort of refuge to temporarily escape their urban environment. Part of this demand, specially in the Mediterranean coast occurs because the international request attracted by the climate, the differential level in life standards, and the present transport facility. Nonetheless, the internal demand is very important and continues to grow. If in 1991, 12% of the Spanish resident homes possessed a secondary household, in 2001 it was already increasing to 15%. Almost one of each seven homes is immersed in multiple residence strategy. Diverse studies have demonstrated the interactions between housing characteristics, those related to the habitual residences and the possession of second homes. Generally they have concluded that the main explanatory factors are, on one hand, a dense and compact habitat, and by other hand, the socio-demographics and socioeconomic status of secondary residence users. Nevertheless, the guideline of location of this type of housing and its interaction with homes characteristics seems to be a less treated subject.

  • Athens and Lisbon Stock Markets: a Thermodynamic Approach
    Athens and Lisbon Stock Markets: A thermodynamic approach A.GKRANAS, V.L.RENDOUMIS, H.M.POLATOGLOU Physics Department Aristotle University of Thessaloniki Thessaloniki GR-54124 Greece Abstract: - In this work, we present the results of our analysis in the stock markets of Greece and Portugal. We recognize exponential laws at both Athens Stock Exchange General Index (GD) and Lisbon’s Main Index. This fact stimulates us to apply formalisms taken from physics about the study of macroscopic properties. Especially, we introduce the implication of Newton’s law of cooling on these markets. The satisfying fit leads us to express a thermodynamic approach, in our effort to understand such complex behaviors. Keywords: - econophysics, Athens Stock Exchange, Lisbon Stock Exchange, Newton’s cooling law. 1 Introduction A lot of things have changed in economics in the last 15 years. Quantitative research is now the rule and not the exception as quants, quantitative analysts, often with interdisciplinary background are day by day more and more important in financial institutions and banking foundations. In these recent years a lot of scientists from the field of physics started to study social systems and mostly systems of economy trying to apply methods and formalisms developed for years in their field. This effort was successful, since now days direct access to high- frequency data (on the scale of seconds) not only for stocks, currencies or interest rates, but also for more exotic markets such as option markets, energy markets, weather derivatives, etc. is the rule. So, any statistical model, or theoretical idea, can and must be tested against available Fig.
