	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Puerto Rico
		Both in Cuba and in Porto Rico claims were made for properties which in every sense of law and justice belonged to the Church, though administered by the government, which was repeatedly pledged by the terms of the concordat to restore the same to the Church.
		The prompt establishment of civil government in Porto Rico obliged Bishop Blenk to appeal to the civil tribunals on account of a special act of the legislature (12 March, 1904) conferring original jurisdiction upon the Supreme Court of the island to determine all questions at issue with the bishop of the diocese.
		By the people of Porto Rico the claims of the Church were not disputed, except the properties formerly belonging to the suppressed communities, which Spain had held for the last half century, allowing the suits in other cases to pass by default in favour of the Church.

	World Social Forum: Work Begins on a World of Solidarity
		PORTO ALEGRE, Brazil - The World Social Forum opened Thursday as its hosts launched an appeal for greater social justice and international solidarity, a sentiment underscored by a march of thousands through this Brazilian city, and captured by a throng of 1,600 journalists.
		The Porto Alegre conference is an expression of opposition to the ''Darwinist vision of human relations and of a society treated like a jungle,'' one that is fed by the ''neoliberalism of Davos,'' maintained governor Dutra.
		The realities the WSF must work to change, he said, are the minimum government for the majority while the greater government serves a few powerful groups, and use of technological advances only ''to accumulate and concentrate wealth,'' instead of improving humanity's standard of living.

	[Alternatives] : Another Canada is possible
		Across the country, citizens are demanding greater influence over decisions in their communities, making politicians accountable to their constituents once again.
		Inspired by the participatory democracy flourishing in the Brazilian city of Porto Alegre, where residents set priorities for 20 percent of the municipal budget, a committed group of Canadians has expressed the desire to see budgets and community projects better reflect the needs of their neighbourhoods, towns, and cities.
		Unlike the Porto Alegre model, where the mayor and city councillors have final approval over all projects, Guelph city councillors cannot reject any of the proposed ventures: the budgets are pre-approved, granting the neighbourhood associations a virtual carte blanche for their communities.
