Join us the last Thursday of every month to enjoy controversial speakers, avant-garde videos, and provacative presentations on everything from 
Love to Art to Politics.
Take part in the discussions by becoming a Salon participant.</description><link>http://www.barmercurio.com/salonBlog.html</link><managingEditor>noreply@blogger.com (barMercurio)</managingEditor><generator>Blogger</generator><openSearch:totalResults>6</openSearch:totalResults><openSearch:startIndex>1</openSearch:startIndex><openSearch:itemsPerPage>25</openSearch:itemsPerPage><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18777473.post-114773108441361098</guid><pubDate>Mon, 15 May 2006 22:10:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2006-05-19T12:17:16.173-04:00</atom:updated><title>UPCOMING: CATHARSIS - VICARIOUS PLEASURES</title><description>Thursday May 25th  7:30-10:30pm&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VICARIOUS PLEASURES &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Vicarious pleasures abound in theatre, sport, politics and life. &lt;br /&gt;Are they a healthy release or a psychic trance? &lt;br /&gt;A look at roles, masks and distancing in theatre and therapy.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/18777473-114773108441361098?l=www.barmercurio.com%2FsalonBlog.html' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://www.barmercurio.com/2006/05/upcoming-catharsis-vicarious-pleasures.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (barMercurio)</author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>1</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18777473.post-114773057453622475</guid><pubDate>Mon, 15 May 2006 21:59:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2006-05-15T18:09:50.170-04:00</atom:updated><title>JUST PAST:  The Chimera Laments</title><description>Thursday  May 4th  7–10 pm&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.barmercurio.com/uploaded_images/chimera-758650.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;
