Hotmail thinks we are spam

Anyone that signed up for our mailing list with a hotmail address is most likely not getting anything from us as Microsoft has decided that we are sending you spam and I can´t seem to figure out how to get around this, so If you are not getting our email and want to send us a non microsoft email address please drop us a line or let us know next time you are in the shop.(Anyone that knows how I can fix this please let kim know, Thanks) Sent Microsoft a email today and got this back less then an hour... Hello, Thank you for contacting Windows Live Hotmail Domain Support. Our goal in Windows Live Mail is to make sure that every wanted message arrives in your Inbox, and I know how frustrating it is when this doesn't happen. It appears that the gmail.com domain is being affected by one of our anti-spam or bulk message filters. As a part of the Sender Escalations Team, I work directly with senders, domains and other ISPs to resolve mail delivery failures. Though I cannot resolve this for you immediately, I will attempt to contact the administrator of gmail.com. It may take a few days to resolve this issue and for your wanted mail to arrive in the inbox of Hotmail accounts.

Best Regards,

Anja

Wallywoods Meeting / DDR Big Chair

Photobucket

The Berlin Big Chairs project marches on into 2008 by taking over Gallery Wallywoods in Weissensee for an indefinite period and stuffing it with Big Chair art.

At Wallywoods - Saturday, 9 February, 8pm: "Artist, DDR fan and Wallywoods curator Paul Woods plans to build a Big Chair to these proportions on the gallery terrace, then decorate it with the DDR and other 'Kulturhaus' rubbish he has found, daily since Christmas, in the 'Kulturhaus' rubbish-yard. Materials include original posters, paintings, drawings, signs, prints, photos, books, prospects, diaries, certificates, film, records, tapes, ceramics, costumes, scenery, shoes, umbrellas, children's drawings, architectural plans, empty picture frames (glass and contents smashed and gone) and other rescued objects and documentation spanning 40 years in the history of Weissensees most important 'culture' center - now privatised - deliberately it seems, but not quite secretly, disposed of by the previous tenant 'Kulturamt Pankow' (local Ministry of Culture) without a word of warning or invitation to local or national museums, cultural and historical societies, libraries, researchers, arts projects or even private collectors. Why? Because inside we need the space, and outside few appear to give a damn. If you come to the meeting (possibly accompanied by live music and/or performance), expect to be roped in. Because we need help. And not just in this respect. (Free drinks for spontaneous musicians, builders and journalists!)"

Shah Rukh Khan at Berlinale Talent Campus

Photobucket

The highly acclaimed Indian Bollywood actor, producer Shahrukh Khan will be one of the special guests at the HAU 1 on sunday at 11 am to talk about "Love International". Other guests on the panel are Maria Schrader and Kate Henshaw-Nuttall.

From the programme: "Moderated by Dorothee Wenner. In cooperation with Federal Foreign Office and Berlinale Special. There are few things more pleasurable than seeing a wonderful love story on the big screen. Although love may be regarded as an eternal affair and a natural humancondition, looking at films from the different parts of the world, one can see clear distinctions arising from very different cultural contexts that shape relationships from the “first sight” till “death tears them apart”. Morale, ethics, family constellations, gender relations, economics, traditions and religion – all these issues result in what the Western world likes to describe as the most private sphere of an individual. Three super stars from the genre of “love depiction” – Bollywood’s Shah Rukh Khan, Kate Henshaw-Nuttall of the Nollywood fame and German leading lady and Silver Bear winner Maria Schrader – look at today’s cinema and its purpos as a role model for “real” love stories, as well as a fulfilment of audiences’ desire for escapism and as a reflection of the world we live in – be it in India, Nigeria, Germany or elsewhere."

You can download either the complete Talent Campus Magazine with all information on participants, experts and content of all programme events or just the compact pdf with all programme information.
