500 Parisians in Anger...

About 500 people gathered on Saturday 16 in front of the Maison des Métallos
(a cultural institution) in Paris XI, in support to Rayhana...


The actress and playwriter had been doused with gasoline on Tuesday 12, as
she walked into the theater to perform in her play A mon âge, je me cache
encore pour fumer (At my age, I still hide to smoke).

Despite the assault, Rayhana took the stage the same evening and kept acting
until the end, on January 16, as expected.
Since December 8, nine actresses appeared every night on stage at the Maison
des Métallos, in the role of nine Algerian women meeting in a hammam - their
refuge against the world of men, while conversing freely on their daily lives and
their difficulties in the Algerian society.

The mayor of Paris Bertrand Delanoë, has told the Press this terrible event could
be linked to the subject of Rayhana's work.

I'm afraid this attack could also be related to the proximity with one of the most
fundamentalist mosques in Paris.

Coffea arabica is a species of coffee indigenous
to Ethiopia. It is also known as the "coffee shrub
of Arabia", "mountain coffee" or "arabica coffee".
Coffea arabica is believed to be the first species
of coffee to be cultivated, being grown in southwest
Arabia for well over 1,000 years.
It is considered to produce better coffee than the
other major commercially grown coffee species
(robusta).
