Last year, I wrote about a web-documentary that I was watching - Gaza Sderot: Life In Spite of Everything. It documented the lives of average Israeli and Palestinian people in the Israeli/Palestinian border towns of Gaza and Sderot.
SNAKING ALONG, cutting through fields and streets, yards and gardens, the 28-mile-long Berlin Wall stood as a border between East and West Berlin from 1961 to 1989. That all changed on Nov. 9, 1989, when an inexact translation, a confused border guard and a natural longing for a better life opened a hole in that wall that would eventually end the Cold War.

Not to seem ungrateful, but we're going on four years later and this still has not been fixed as of 1.1.7.
Tiens, on a trouvé pire que Firefox et ses bugs sur la gestion de table-layout:fixed ou de border-collapse:collapse.

Humanitarian design organization TYIN Tegnestue from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology conceived the project in response to a need for more dormitories for Karen refugee children in the village of Noh Bo on the Thai-Burmese border. The six woven bamboo huts, dubbed Soe Ker Tie, or The Butterfly Huts because of their “winged” appearance were designed with the children’s happiness and health in mind.
Chuck:
Your solution doesn’t solve the problem. If you use border-collapse: separate, and you actually use the borders, the smallest border you can get is 2px, which is not acceptable.
I cannot believe this bug is still around in Firefox 3.
Vous ne rêvez pas, nous sommes en 2009 et Firefox ne sait toujours pas gérer border-collapse correctement. On va se marrer avec CSS3.
Using in-line CSS we can define some border for picture
There is something about visiting a different city, more so a different country that swallows you whole. Sometimes the best way to create is to escape.
When border patrol asked, “What brings you to Canada?” I should have answered, “To make a new life”.

Gaza-Sderot captures daily life on both sides of the border in the days before Israel's military campaign
Gaza (Palestine) and Sderot (Israel): Report on the life of men, women and children in two cities on the Israeli Palestinian border. Strong story telling and fantastic well designed UI.

On page 30, Elinor Davidov writes about a 40-episode television documentary called Gaza-Sderot, Life in Spite of Everything. Each episode features an interview with an ordinary person on either side of the border, describing daily life. The result is a fascinating combination of drama and banality that makes each episode worth watching. It was co-produced by a staff from Sderot’s Sapir College, Gaza’s Ramattan Studios and the German-French arte.tv (photos and bio blurbs are here).
As we are getting regular news on the war on the Gaza strip, we may often lack background information. I’d like to share a very good set of small videos on the daily life of 6 peoples in Gaza and Sderot (in Israel, close to the border of the Gaza strip) despite the war situation. It happens to have been broadcast during one month just before the war made the headlines. It is called “Gaza-Sderot”, and it is available here.
Aki says something very interesting in an interview, something about the relationship between being an expatriate and being judgmental. (Aki wants to encourage judgmentalism.) "More and more expatriates," she explains, "tend to be what I call Hoppers. Those who are aware of crossing borders of any kind seem to be more judgmental." But if they're inwardly judgmental, these expats master an outward conformity, a kind of Zelig-like quality: "They are also experts in blurring differences, to mask the consequences of their judgments. As a survival technique, Hoppers fool themselves to ignore gaps, or believe in mingling as the most natural, or even embrace characteristics, while positioning themselves out of such horizontal references... Whatever the resulting attitude is, border crossers face the choice of how to locate themselves in relation to sets of plural realities and values. This is the consequence of hopping-around. Being an expatriate is not the only method of hopping-around. But it seems to be an easy category in these days. This is what I mean by Hoppers."
