I am more and more convinced that there is no basic difference between what is commonly called "secular" and "divine" rule. And I'm stressing the political dimension of this. Its performative dimension. Of course religiously derived rule is "rule of law" too. But here I'm using the secular concept of "rule of law" as European enlightenment has convinced itself and convinced the colonized world that there is such a difference, between "human-based" rights, and ethics (turned into rules) derived from religious teachings. Secular rule derive legitimacy from the texts of men whereas religious rule (an invention that arose in reaction to the idea that 'secular rule' exists) derive legitimacy from the texts of God, and the words of prophets (let's not even venture in the discussion that prophets are men).
But in both cases, it is the actual texts that authorize ruling (not men). Reading is interpreting and interpretation is always different depending on the historical context of the reading (if I want to summarize a very thorny theoretical issue!). Texts are read by men (of course 'women' too) and they assume a constant supremacy over them. Indeed the most important aspect of these texts at the legal level is this space where the text is held above men, which is the same in rules supposedly whether derived from men or 'God'. It is assumed that texts change more often in content under a 'man-based' rule, and I'll go with the assumption that it does, but the result is the same when the text is set during a specific period of time it is above immediate human judgment.
Now a little story that will illustrate only one application of what I am trying to say: If I cross the street in London when the green light is on for cars, taxi driver (those who probably are mostly used to follow 'the law' to the letter) would actually accelerate the speed of his car in a seeming attempt to hit you. In this instance, there is a brief time where the law supersede the 'human condition', where the possibility of killing is 'ethically' less condemnable because "he's conforming to the law". And in every human action the English system is mainly based on this all pervasiveness of the law. Every human action is sentenced by a rule, a role, that is made much more explicit and inscribed than in other systems of rule (my point is that the "God" predicament does not change much).
Actually most Nation-State's rate of success (economically, socially, etc.) is measured according to how strongly the 'rule of law' is 'respected', to what extent it dominates human relation, over human's ability to make instantaneous choices. The disciplinary extent of that can be quite pervasive: it is the flip side of the fictitious ideology of "Individualism", "free will", etc. So many times have I gotten the typical answer "Sorry we understand you, and although it is an exceptional case, we have to follow the procedure or else it will be against the Law".
I would actually postulate that human-derived laws can be way more detrimental and 'despotic' than God derived ones at the very least because of this feeling of superiority that man has when he finds out that he's the bearer of 'the logos', of the Verb. I will stop here so that it does not result in a long post. But these ideas will be developed at length in coming posts.

This week was another good one! Sister C. Silva turned 22, and we ate a lot of cake and had a lot of fun! She is teaching me so many songs in Portuguese, I want to pull a Lizzie McGuire and become a brazilian pop star #whatdreamsaremadeof
This week I was studying a talk from General Conference by Dieter F. Uchtdorf, "The Gift of Grace", and I love love love this part:
"In the Bible we read of Christ's visit to the home of Simon the Pharisee. Outwardly, Simon seemed to be a good and upright man. He regularly checked off his to-do list of religious obligations: he kept the law, paid his tithing, observed the Sabbath, prayed daily, and went to the synagogue.
But while Jesus was with Simon, a woman approached, washed the Savior's feet with her tears, and anointed His feet with fine oil.
Simon was not pleased with this display of worship, for he knew that this woman was a sinner. Simon thought that if Jesus didn't know this, He must not be a prophet or He would not have let the woman touch him.
Perceiving his thoughts, Jesus turned to Simon and asked a question. "There was a certain creditor which had two debtors: … one owed five hundred pence, … the other fifty.
And when they [both] had nothing to pay, he frankly forgave them both. Tell me therefore, which of them will love him most?"
Simon answered that it was the one who was forgiven the most.
Then Jesus taught a profound lesson: "Seest thou this woman? … Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little."
Which of these two people are we most like?
I´ve been thinking a lot about this story, and I hope that I can be more like the woman who really loved her Savior. She understood who he is! She knew how indebted she is, and how only his grace could save her.
The whole talk is here if yáll want to read the rest! https://www.lds.org/general-conference/2015/04/the-gift-of-grace?lang=eng
Things are wonderful here in Brazil! I´m so happy & loving this part of my mission. I miss you all & hope everyone is happy & getting excited for summer!

U16's Manager: Rob Nash Asst Coach: Scott Drysdale
We currently run two under 16 teams.
Our Blacks team play in the top division of the U16 Mid Wilts league (Blue Division) and our Reds team play in the 3rd division (Red Division).
Robert Nash manages the Reds Team and Simon Pope has taken on the Blacks Team. Both teams have had indifferent seasons so far.
Blacks have had a tough time after winning promotion last season they have come up against the best sides in the area. After 6 games they have won one, drawn one and lost four. But they are in the quarterfinals of the league cup after a good win over Frome in the last round.
Meanwhile, the Reds have won 2, drawn one and lost three. The three defeats have been frustrating as we were leading in all 3 games the first we were 4-2 up with 20 minutes to go and lost 5-4 and the game we drew well I still can believe we didn't win (bad day at the office for our forward line). With a bit of luck we could have won all 6 as the games we won we have won convincingly.
In summary the future of the club is in good shape with the current under 18s and the two under 16 teams we have over 60 young players registered to play this is only good for the future of the club and has proved this season if they are good enough they will get a chance in the first team.
Remaining confirmed fixtures are as follows:
Blacks team (Red Division}
20/1/2019 Melksham Town Youth Hurricanes v Warminster Town
27/1/2019 Warminster Town Youth v Bath Arsenal Pumas
03/2/2019 Devizes Town Youth v Warminster Town
10/2/2019 Worton & Cheverell Youth v Warminster Town
03/3/2019 Amesbury Junior FC Youth v Warminster Town
10/3/2019 Bath Arsenal Pumas v Warminster Town

Jeremiah 9 Oh that my head were waters, and mine eyes a fountain of tears, That I might weep day and night for the slain of the daughter of my people!
Why Are You Crying?
Her face was covered by a blanket and I heard the sniffles from the back seat. Why are you crying? There was something obviously wrong with one of my daughters. "I didn't have any dinner" she mumbled softly. "All I had was Cheetos and some pork." That's not something to cry about I laughed. I quickly pointed out that she did have dinner but I caved and got her a sandwich.
You know in life there are times that we all need a good cry. Times that bring so much sorrow in our life and then our only response are tears.
In the Prophet Jeremiah's day, the people of Judah were not listening to God's word. Their hearts seemed like they were already set in a rut and there was no turning back to God. They sinned treacherously, they had broken their covenant with God, and had refused to turn back to Him with all their heart, like the Lord commanded. For that reason, God was going to punish His people by placing them into captivity. Unrepentant hearts, wicked sin, and refusal to accept God's word caused the prophet to cry for Judah. Then, about 600 years later there was another sent one from God (Jesus) and HE (Jesus) will weep over Jerusalem.
Now here is the question: What brings tears to you? Is it the sin of others? Is it the unbelief of billions around the world? Is it the eternal fate of those people that live in China or Africa. Or maybe family members that haven't yet had a personal relationship with Jesus. Why are you crying? For the prophet Jeremiah is was the sin and the coming destruction of the people that he had been sent to. What about you?

Unusual meteorite donated to the Field Museum
Collections & Research Committee member Terry Boudreaux donated a very unusual meteorite specimen to The Field Museum's Robert A. Pritzker Center for Meteoritics and Polar Studies. The meteorite is named NWA 5492 after northwest Africa where it was found. Its petrology and chemical composition are very different compared to other meteorites and it cannot be classified with the existing scheme. It is therefore just described as an ungrouped chondrite.

Telehealth at a tipping point for changing healthcare delivery
Fueled by three important trends, the time has come for healthcare to embrace telehealth as a technology platform for achieving increased industry efficiencies and providing greater patient access to care.
So argue Eric Topol, MD, director of the Scripps Translational Science Institute in La Jolla, Calif., and Ray Dorsey, MD, director of the Center for Human Experimental Therapeutics at the University of Rochester Medical Center in Rochester, N.Y.
Writing last week in the New England Journal of Medicine, Topol and Dorsey contend in a review article that telemedicine has reached a tipping point and has the potential to dramatically transform the delivery of healthcare for millions of Americans. Thanks to three trends, the authors make the case that the widespread adoption of telehealth is rapidly approaching, especially given the ongoing doctor shortage and the industry's growing burden of managing chronic diseases.
They say the first trend is driven by the potential of telemedicine to make care more accessible, convenient and reduce cost. The second trend is the expanded application of telehealth in its traditional use in acute conditions, such as telestroke programs that connect neurologists with physicians in distant emergency departments, to episodic conditions, such as a consultation between a pediatrician and a school nurse to diagnose an ear infection in a child, to the ongoing management of chronic conditions. And the third trend is the migration of telemedicine from hospitals and clinics to patients' homes and ultimately mobile devices.
"There isn't any question about it—telehealth has major momentum now, despite some of the obstacles such as reimbursement," says Topol. "It's made tremendous inroads in a very short amount of time. What we've learned is that telemedicine is a very efficient way to expend medical care, and it's going to grow over time. At some point in the future, within the next decade, it will likely be the most dominant form of physician-patient interaction."
While on average it takes patients 2.6 weeks to make an appointment with a primary care physician, Topol asserts that with telemedicine, they could be "connected in 2.6 seconds or less" with a doctor.
Still, he acknowledges that telehealth today is "relatively primitive" and will necessarily evolve from the current "video chat" technology to a "data exchange platform," enabling frequent virtual visits from physicians, combined with remote wearable devices and mobile apps that will share information gathered from sensors in real time including patient vital signs and patient-generated lab data.
Telemedicine will become "more and more enriched by the patient having data to review with the doctor," according to Topol. At the same time, he contends that telehealth will not replace or replicate traditional patient office visits, adding that, "There will always be face-to-face office visits."
Topol says that patients who are unable to physically see physicians in hospital or office setting are the ones who need telemedicine the most.
Towards that end, Dorsey—a neurologist—testified last week in support of telemedicine initiatives at a House Subcommittee on Commerce, Manufacturing, and Trade hearing. In particular, he told lawmakers that more than 40 percent of Medicare beneficiaries with Parkinson's disease are currently not able to see a neurologist.
As a result, these patients are more likely to fracture their hip, be placed in a skilled nursing facility and die prematurely. However, according to Dorsey, simple video conferencing like Skype can enable clinicians to reach these kinds of patients in their homes.
"In a pilot study, these virtual house calls were feasible, provided comparable outcomes to in-person care, and saved patients and their caregivers three hours of time and 100 miles of travel," he said. "With 18 centers, including Baylor, Northwestern, University of Kansas, and University of Florida, we are conducting the first national randomized controlled trial of virtual house calls for Parkinson's disease. Demand for telehealth is high. Over 11,000 individuals from 80 countries and all 50 states visited the study's website, and nearly 1,000 individuals with Parkinson's disease wanted to participate in this 200-person study, which will complete this summer."
However, Dorsey argued that the need for telemedicine goes beyond just technology but requires changes in Medicare policy that are major barriers to adoption. He pointed out that last year, Medicare spent less than one hundredth of one percent of its budget on telehealth.
"Currently, Medicare pays neurologists $150 to see a patient with Parkinson disease in a hospital-based clinic, $80 for a visit in a community-based clinic, and $0 to see a patient remotely in their home," Dorsey said. "In essence, Medicare subsidizes institution-based care and dis-incents patient-centered care."
Nonetheless, he asserted that legislation has been introduced that could fix these policies. Dorsey spoke in support of the TELEmedicine for MEDicare (TELE-MED) Act of 2015, which would permit Medicare providers licensed to practice physically in one state to treat patients electronically across state lines. Under the TELE-MED Act, a Medicare participating physician or practitioner would be able to provide services to a Medicare beneficiary across state lines without being licensed in that patient's state as long as the provider is licensed or authorized to provide that service in their own state.
"The TELE-MED Act would enable any Medicare provider to care for any Medicare beneficiary," according to Dorsey. "The Act mirrors how physicians in the Veterans' Administration can care for any veteran anywhere in the U.S., and last year the VA provided over 2 million telehealth visits.
Likewise, he said the Medicare Telehealth Parity Act "would expand Medicare's coverage of telehealth, which today reaches veterans, military personnel, Medicaid beneficiaries, and prisoners but largely excludes 50 million older Americans."
The Medicare Telehealth Parity Act seeks to expand Medicare coverage and reimbursement of telemedicine services putting them on the path toward payment parity with in-person healthcare visits. Critics like Dorsey see Medicare restrictions on telehealth services as major policy barriers to greater use of the technology in healthcare, preventing patients and providers from taking advantage of advancements in telemedicine.
"Rather than subsidizing high-cost, institution-based care, Congress should incent potentially lower cost, patient-centered care delivered to where patients—not institutions—are," concluded Dorsey.

Hi, From Camp!
There are lots of sounds that make me happy- great music, the songs of birds in the morning, the crackle of a campfire at night. But there's one sound that we hear only once each year and it fills us with joy, excitement and anticipation.
Last week, Barbara and I went up to Greeley (the temperature was down into the 30s at night!) to open the doors for our first guests of the season. Not our regular PFC campers just yet! It was the Spence School from NYC, whose students and teachers arrived for a few days of team building and discovery at Pine Forest.
When we walked into the dining room for the first meal of the season (PFC Chef Dave Lang's special BBQ chicken), we heard it. The sounds of children back at camp. Oh, what a happy sound! Laughter, cheers, applause. That's what we look forward to and work towards all year long. They may not be our "true campers" who arrive on June 27th, but after a long winter, Pine Forest has come alive with the sound of children having fun. And that's the best sound of all.

Olive's Ocean By Kevin Henkes is different from most novels for young people that I have read. It's a slow-developing and lyrical story that one will savor like the cream filling of an Oreo cookie. As such, I think it will disappoint some readers but enamor others.
One reviewer wrote that Olive's Ocean doesn't have a plot. In a way it does. In the beginning, Olive's mother comes to visit Martha and deliver a note from her dead daughter which she believes 12-year-old Martha should have. In the middle, Martha and her family spend a summer on Cape Cod, where Martha deals with all kinds of diverse situations, such as the aging of her grandmother, the mid-life crisis of her dad, first loves and betrayals, and the recognition that there's more to life than what exists in her own little world. In the end, Martha makes a decision about her future career and seeks out Olive's mom to deliver a gift that she believes Olive would have enjoyed if she had lived. In another way, the story line resembles the gentle unfolding of a flower. While Olive's Ocean does start with the drama of an accident, Henkes basically uses it to tantalize his readers, reel them in, and keep them hooked. The heart of his tale actually lies in a low-key coming-of-age story about Martha.
My major criticism of Olive's Ocean is that despite its abundance of short chapters and brief sentences, it could prove a difficult read for some of its intended audience. The chapters don't always follow chronological order. For example, the seventh chapter suddenly jumps back to the day of Olive's accident, with the title serving as the only warning of this flashback. Also, the sentences are sometimes vague: "The longer Martha mulled over the coincidences, the more startling they became." In addition, the revelations which come to Martha often seem beyond her years: "Life at Godbee's seemed old-fashioned to Martha. But the things Martha could not live without at home, she barely missed when she was at her grandmother's place." Those of us book lovers who grew up on the classics will probably enjoy the quiet resonance of Olive's Ocean, but modern readers may grow impatient with the sometimes challenging passages.
I began my review by saying that Olive's Ocean is different from most novels for young people that I have read. This is partly due to Henkes' meticulous attention to his characters' emotions. For example, there's a conversation in which Martha's mom is sharing details of her job but Martha is tuning her out because her thoughts are elsewhere. Besides having Martha's mom acknowledge, "I can tell I'm boring you," Henkes also shows her physical reaction: "She'd risen from the bed and was walking away. A muscle in her cheek moved." Such a tiny and subtle detail, but it succinctly suggests that Martha's mom feels rejected. Some reviewers condemn Henkes for Martha's angry outbursts with her family. To me, Henkes realistically captures the turmoil of adolescent emotions: "What used to provide a sense of pride for Martha had, as she'd become older, become a source of embarrassment…. Suddenly Martha's bed felt huge and empty without her mother sitting beside her. She wanted to curl up with her mother the way she used to when she was younger and life was uncomplicated." One of my favorite group of scenes are those that show the blossoming romance between Martha and the Manning boys. In television drama, young adults always seem to quickly move from an awkward proclamation of interest to easy and casual physical embraces. Not so in Olive's Ocean, which I greatly relate to and appreciate.
That Olive's Ocean is an atypical novel will be considered a strike against it for some, but is also perhaps why it won the Newbery Honor. I commend Henkes for writing a novel that is true to his vision of adolescence. I'm excited that this weekend I will have the opportunity to hear him speak at a luncheon at the Plum Creek Children's Book Festival. You can be sure I will be posting a report on the event here at Allison's Book Bag.

PSV Eindhoven midfielder Otman Bakkal said his side will go all-out attack in their UEFA Europa League quarter-final second-leg against Benfica.The Dutch side suffered a 4-1 thrashing in Portugal last week but will look to produce a stunning turnaround at the Philips Stadion on Thursday.
Eduardo Salvio scored a brace for Benfica in the win, while allowing a late goal from Javier Saviola in stoppage time could prove costly for PSV.
Midfielder Bakkal said the side were under no illusions they faced a tough task in Eindhoven, but wanted his side to show attacking intent.
"We are realistic and conscious that it's going to be very difficult," Bakkal said.
"There's nothing else left then but to completely go for it."
PSV are yet to lose at home in European competition this season, registering four wins and two draws.
They created numerous chances at the Estadio da Luz last week and coach Fred Rutten said the return leg could be a matter of capitalising on their chances.
"We have to be very sharp and alert. If we get the chances like the ones we had there, we have to use them," Rutten said.
"I know it sounds very simple but those are the facts."
The Eredivisie side has not won a European competition since beating Benfica in the 1988 European Cup final.
The visiting Portugese outfit are looking to move into their first European semi-final in 17 years.

Choosing Your Loan Officer:
Don't Short-Change Yourself
The act of obtaining a mortgage has become a deeply personal and individualized pursuit. In its present form, it has little in common with mortgage applications of the past.
Because of that fact, the act of choosing a Mortgage Originator/Lender is far more important now than ever before. There's far more riding on your choice.
Yet, statistics show that all too often little time or effort is expended on studying and making that choice:
- According to a Report, almost half of consumers who borrow to finance a home only seriously consider a single lender or broker before obtaining a loan
- An article by PR Newswire states that more time is spent researching a car purchase (11 hours) and an equal amount of time researching a vacation (8 hours), despite the fact that these items cost just a small fraction of the average cost of a home
Stop. Think about it ...
- Do you really want to navigate such an important and deeply personal experience with someone you have no real knowledge of?
- Do you want to work with someone that can provide you no proof of their business experience?
- Can you rely on someone that has no documented or proven track record?
- Are you willing to gamble on the outcome of your mortgage process with someone that past clients (and professionals) have not expressed trust in?
Why is this search so important?
During today's modern mortgage process, the answers provided to your Originator go well beyond the simple basics of "Where do you presently live?" or "What year were you born?"
The Mortgage Originator you choose will learn much more about you. During your Pre-Approval, Application and mortgage processing, you'll divulge and discuss the most sensitive details of your financial life with the Originator you work with. Sometimes that can mean sharing info of a more delicate personal nature as well. (Divorce, child support, collections, etc.)
A couple of years ago, I wrote an article about Credit Reports being the storybook of your life. Via someone's Credit Report, you can learn almost every aspect of their life ... and life path.
It's well known that the Credit Report documents credit, debt, and financial histories. But Credit Reports also reveal life experiences, successes, and failures. It displays choices made, both good and bad. Life's ups and downs are laid bare and can read much like a novel.
Is your personal info something you want to share with someone you've taken no or very little time in seeking, researching, or vetting?
The answer should obviously be "NO" ... so to safeguard yourself and your mortgage process, what should you do?
What are some of the attributes your chosen Mortgage Originator should possess?
They should be a professional that:
- Finds YOU important
- You're comfortable with. (A rapport between you and your Originator vastly improves the financing experience)
- Listens well
- Has a great reputation
- They should be highly recommended by multiple people, including real estate-related professionals
- Is experienced, knowledgeable, and trustworthy
- Is a good communicator
- Asks you questions & gains facts
- Has a proven track record of successful Closings. They can offer you references and testimonials
- Upon your first contact/inquiry, responds to your inquiries and questions in a timely fashion
- Provides you thorough information addressing all your questions, mortgage options, and the services they provide
- Provides you guidance based on facts regarding your personal finances, not just generalities
- Will work with you on improving your credit standing, if necessary
- More ...
There's a lot on the line during the financing of your home. The home you LOVE. Your money, privacy, and security. Your time. Your emotions.
All these things make it imperative that you take the time and make the effort to find a reputable Mortgage Originator. To establish a relationship with a quality experiencedOriginator possessing the characteristics listed above.
You'll know then that you'll be able to trust and rely on them and their services throughout your entire mortgage process. And that you are establishing and growing a sound relationship that will continue working on your behalf beyond the Closing table and into the future ...

Liverpool have made the first move in contract negotiations with striker Divock Origi, as the Reds look to secure the 24-year-old's future as soon as possible.
Origi has been utilised as a backup to Liverpool's 'fab three' for much of the season, but started the second leg of the Reds' Champions League semi-final against Barcelona - scoring twice, including the goal that sent Liverpool to their second Champions League final in two years.
According to Belgian outlet HLN,
Origi however, is considering his options and is in no rush to sign a new offer from Liverpool.
Despite impressing when called upon this season, the Belgian is likely to continue playing second fiddle to the likes of Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firminho, and Sadio Mane next season. This lack of first-team football could result in the Liverpool man looking elsewhere for more regular game time.
A lot of fringe players could be on the way out this summer... https://t.co/lWdAVCRvIM— LiverpoolPro (@LiverpoolPro) May 16, 2019
If the Belgian were to leave Anfield, an important factor in deciding where he went next would be the wages offered. Origi currently earns around £60,000-a-week at Liverpool and would be seeking financial guarantees at any potential future club.
Despite being signed from Lille back in 2014, the Belgian striker has failed to establish himself as regular starter for the Reds, and spent large portions of his Liverpool career on loan, with spells at Lille and Wolfsburg.
The story has been much the same for this season, where Origi has found first team opportunities few and far between. He may not have featured very often during this campaign, but he has picked up the coveted knack of scoring important goals in big fixtures. As well as the brace against Barcelona
Divock Origi doesn't deserve a new contract, he deserves a fucking statue!— Ben Webb (@BenWebbLFC) May 7, 2019

my life with dysgraphia
Learning to write was a challenge for me. It was hard to make it readable for the teachers. I was trying but I always was messing up. One summer, I had a special teacher that helped me with writing the letters. It helped, but I still had problems. It made me feel like I was different. I felt like it was a bad thing that I was different. I started using a computer at school but the one they gave me didn't work so well. I didn't like having to sit away from my friends to use the computer. The teachers made me use it but I didn't like it. I didn't feel like it helped me very much.
In 6th grade, we looked at different schools I could go to that would help me. We found one that seemed like a good fit. I started using a Macintosh at school which was what I had at home. I didn't have to go to a desk in the way back of the room and I could stay with the rest of the class and do my work. Other kids had similar problems so it made me feel better about myself as a learner. I learned that I am unique and there is no one else in the world who is like me. I learned that typing actually did help me to learn better. Handwriting is still an option but I can type things easier. I learned that there are many strategies I can use to learn better and make things easier to do. I can ask questions and get more attention because the classes are smaller. Not everyone is perfect. Being different from everyone is not such a big deal for me anymore.
Does anyone know what this is called? Its called dysgraphia.It means having problems with writing/spelling and it does not mean problems with reading. People with dysgraphia may also have dyslexia or attention deficit disorder. We are just as smart as everyone else, we just have problems showing it. Famous people with dsylexic dysgraphia include Pres. George Washington, Gen. George Patton, scientist Albert Einstein, and mystery writer Agatha Christie.

Biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiig bump.Apologies if this is against etiquette. I very recently discovered the fellow, I started with Post Office (amazing) then Factotum (a continuation), now on Women. It seems slightly better written, but already is sliding into "then I wrecked this bird" teritory. Still enjoyable. I've consciously saved Ham On Rye for last after enjoying his earlier work so much. My sister (gawd bless her) got me The Most Beautiful Woman In Town collection at crimbo. Surely the title story is the best thing he put his name to? Just wonderful, a lot of the rest is very good - a lot very isn't.Anyway - canvasing for opinion really, how do people get along with him? How do the people who were picking up his books in this thread feel about him now, etc?To quote Modest Mouse; "woke up this morning and it seemed to me that every night turns out to be a little more like Bukowski, and yeah, I know he's a pretty good read - but God who'd wanna be, God who'd wanna be such an asshole?"

Letter sent to Evening Gazette, Feb 3rd
By Nick Webb
Dear Sir,
I note that Labour MP for Stockton North, Alex Cunningham is calling on the Teesside Pension Fund to end investment in the tobacco industry and look for alternative investments. (Evening Gazette, Saturday 2nd February.)
I wonder whether he informed his Labour colleagues of his views on this issue prior to a Council meeting held on 23rd January in which they voted down a motion submitted by the Stockton Liberal Democrat Council Group calling for the same thing.
There is not often agreement between Labour and the Liberal Democrats on any single issue and I find it a matter of regret that on this occasion the Labour-led Council did not feel able to support a motion which would have helped to ensure that the Fund invests more ethically in the future.
Yours faithfully,
Nick Webb.
Vice Chair of the Stockton Liberal Democrats.

Savinelli Autograph: Autograph Sandblasted Paneled Bent Dublin
Product Number: 002-790-0239
With a trumpeting profile, some crisp paneling, and a whole lot of sandblasted texture, this bent Dublin from Savinelli's Autograph series is quite the handsome piece. Coming from a series that features handmade pipes and quality briar, it really shows off some modern shaping, as well as the talents of Savinelli's artisans — who are welcome to use their own creativity, rather than sticking to a standardized pipe chart.- Andrew Wike

The system is based upon ten (originally nine) glyphs.
The symbols (glyphs) used to represent the system are in principle independent of the system itself.
The glyphs in actual use are descended from Brahmi numerals and have split into various typographical variants since the Middle Ages.
That much I expected. But then a third officer, whose name was Villarreal, carefully read every page of my 2019 journal, including copious notes to self on work, relationships, friends, family, and all sorts of private reflections I had happened to write down. I told him, "Sir, I know there's nothing I can do to stop you, but I want to tell you, as one human being to another, that you're invading my privacy right now, and I don't appreciate it." Villarreal acknowledged the statement and went back to reading.
That was just the beginning. The real abuse of power was a warrantless search of my phone and laptop. This is the part that affects everyone, not just reporters and people who keep journals.

Transport chaos wake-up call over infrastructure
Transport chaos wake-up call to Government over infrastructure
Today's transport chaos in Wellington is yet another wake-up call to the Government and the councils that our infrastructure is very fragile and urgently needs more investment, says Wellington Chamber of Commerce.
"Today's derailment, which has affected 20,000 commuters on rail and jammed a similar number on the roads, is further evidence that we don't have enough resilience in our transport infrastructure.
"We are stuck with narrow corridors thanks to being squeezed between the hills and the sea, so our infrastructure must be resilient to all eventualities.
"It is clearly far from that.
"We have a limited number of roads and rail lines, and when something happens to them then this sort of chaos is the result.
"It's crazy that in the 21st century our capital city has to put up with this.
"It's all about resilience. We need more investment put into roading and rail and buses and the corridors they use, and we need it now.
"The real problem is that the Government has deferred solutions till well into the future.
"Let's Get Wellington Moving and the Petone to Grenada link are prime examples of this.
"Businesses and the public made it very clear what they needed and expected from the Let's Get Wellington Moving project, but they're not getting the big parts of it for many, many years.
"We need the two tunnels and the grade separation at the Basin as soon as possible, not in 20 or 30 years.
"The Petone to Grenada link would have made a big difference today but that's been put on hold till the end of next decade, so that part of the transport network remains vulnerable, as we also saw earlier this year with a slip on Highway 2.
"The rail corridor is clearly also inadequate and needs more serious investment to make it more resilient.
"The Government needs to open its eyes to what's happening in its own back yard and get on and make these fixes."

WASHINGTON (November 30, 2009) — The American Legion today praised the Supreme Court for vacating and remanding an appeals court ruling which would have ordered the release of photographs of detainees allegedly being abused by their U.S. captors. The Supreme Court ordered the 2nd U.S. Court of Appeals to take another look at the case due to a recent change in federal law, advocated by The American Legion, which allows the government to withhold the release of the photographs.
"This is a victory for our troops," said National Commander Clarence E. Hill. "Too often images are used to inflame tensions in the Middle East and are used as propaganda by terrorists. Whether these pictures depicted torture or not, we may never know. But we do know that the president, some members of Congress and many military leaders believed it would put our troops at greater risk. This may be a defeat for the ACLU but it is a victory for America."
In a May 8 editorial in The Wall Street Journal, then-National Commander David K. Rehbein asked, "A picture may be worth a thousand words, but is it worth the life of a single American soldier? Is any photograph worth the life of your Marine Corps daughter? Or your neighbor's deployed husband?"
The editorial garnered mentions in Time Magazine, blogs and other media. As Rehbein appeared at a media event in the Capitol with U.S. Rep. Marsha Blackburn to criticize the pending release, The White House announced it had reversed its earlier decision to release the photographs, which were requested by the American Civil Liberties Union.
"We are still very much at war," Hill added. "The American Legion is calling on all Americans to remain aware of that and remember that our troops are in harm's way and need all the support that their fellow citizens can offer. The American Legion will always oppose any efforts to undermine our troops. It's one thing to say that you support the troops. It's another thing to mean it."

The 2018 Gold Coast Film Festival (GCFF) program was officially unveiled today, with the city's flagship film event screening 40 feature films including one world premiere, seven Australian premieres and seven Queensland premieres, plus a host of short films, events, filmmaker Q&A's, and an incredible Virtual Reality (VR) film experience.
The 16th annual GCFF will run for 13 days from Tuesday 17 April to Sunday 29 April, with the Australian premiere screening of thriller 'The Second' confirmed for the Film Festival's Opening Night at HOTA, Home of The Arts, with director Mairi Cameron and cast including Rachael Blake and Vince Colosimo in attendance.
'The Second', a Stan Original Film, is a Queensland production by a Brisbane-based creative team and filmed in Jimbour, north of Brisbane.
The Festival has also secured the Australian premiere of black comedy 'Brothers' Nest' to screen at the Closing Night on Sunday, April 29, with brothers Shane Jacobson and Clayton Jacobson (Kenny), attending the event and Q&A.
Telling the story of two brothers who go to extreme and deadly lengths to protect their inheritance from their dying mother's new husband, Brothers' Nest has been touted as the most anticipated of Shane Jacobson's five feature films to be released this year.
The Gold Coast Film Festival will also screen the Queensland premiere of Simon Baker's 'Breath', at a special red-carpet gala event at Pacific Fair on Thursday 19 April. Simon Baker (Sando) and fellow actors Samson Coulter ('Pikelet') and Ben Spence ('Loonie') will be attending the premiere screening, which will be followed by a Q&A.
"The Queensland Government, Screen Queensland and Tourism and Events Queensland are proud to be major partners of the Gold Coast Film Festival," said Queensland Premier and Minister for Trade Annastacia Palaszczuk.
"The Commonwealth Games will pass the baton to the GCFF in mid-April putting the spotlight again on the Gold Coast, attracting more visitors, boosting the economy and supporting local jobs.
"The Queensland Government's $11 million contribution towards the construction of the $15.5 million Sound Stage 9 at Village Roadshow Studios, used to host the GC2018 Squash competition, along with our $30 million four-year funding contribution and $20 million injection last December into the screen industry is having a major impact.
"In the last month we have announced 'Danger Close', Chris Lilley's Netflix series, plus another feature film, 'Escape and Evasion', produced by Blake Northfield and Jane Corden of Bronte Pictures and directed by Storm Ashwood, is currently shooting on the Gold Coast."
Minister for Tourism Industry Development Kate Jones said locals and tourists will enjoy the variety of films on offer.
"This event further cements the Gold Coast as Australia's leading film capital," Ms Jones said.
"The Gold Coast will be flying high, fresh from hosting the Commonwealth Games and this event offers yet another reason to visit this region.
"The Palaszczuk Government supports the Gold Coast Film Festival via Tourism and Events Queensland's It's Live! in Queensland events calendar which will inject $780 million into the state's economy."
In partnership with the Byron Bay Film Festival (BBFF), for the first time GCFF will take festivalgoers to the forefront of cinematic innovation through a program of varied Virtual Reality (VR) experiences on Saturday 28 April and Sunday 29 April.
Audiences will experience some of the best VR content from around the world and Australia, such as animated documentary 'A Think Black Line', from Brisbane filmmaker Douglas Watkin, which invites audiences to step into The Bombing of Darwin – a pivotal event in the history of one family, and a nation, through the eyes of a child.
Witness first-hand the imprisonment of asylum seekers as audiences are taken behind the razor-wire to meet the people who are being denied their freedom with 'Inside Manus', while Rone takes audiences inside the famous street artist's world, following him into rarely-explored spaces, such as abandoned houses and crumbling historic buildings.
Those interested in gaining insider knowledge into the film world will not want to miss the Queensland premiere screening of documentary 'Jill Bilcock: Dancing The Invisible', which shines a light on one of the world's most legendary film editors, Jill Bilcock.
Having edited some of the country's most iconic films including 'Strictly Ballroom', 'Australia' and 'The Dressmaker', the documentary explores Bilcock's career through a series of entertaining stories that highlight the impact of editing memorable movies and includes interviews with cinema luminaries including Baz Luhrmann and Cate Blanchett. Jill Bilcock will take part in a special Q&A after the film.
The GCFF is one of 36 film festivals and events being funded by the Queensland Government through Screen Queensland's Screen Culture Funding program, contributing almost $1.05 million across the state this financial year.
Gold Coast Film Festival director Lucy Fisher said the quality of the 2018 program is testament to the growing significance of the Festival as a film industry event and its role in promoting the Gold Coast as one of Australia's leading filmmaking destinations.
"At its core, the Gold Coast Film Festival celebrates film and filmmaking," said Ms Fisher.
"The Film Festival will be the Gold Coast's first major event following the Commonwealth Games and will continue to enrich the city through the dozens of special film events being held at 11 venues across the Gold Coast.
"We are proud to announce such a strong line-up today and look forward to once again bringing the magic of film to film enthusiasts, aspiring filmmakers and the screen industry here on the Gold Coast."
The Festival will also screen the Australian premiere of 'The Stolen', a film which takes viewers deep into the New Zealand wilderness following 1860s English settler Charlotte Lockton, played by Alice Eve ('Entourage', 'Iron Fist', 'Before We Go') as she searches for her kidnapped son.
Film directors, writers, cast and crew members will attend numerous scheduled film premieres for intimate Q&A sessions following screenings, including Russian-born Australian writer/director Alena Lodkina on Friday, April 27, following the Australian premiere screening of her film 'Strange Colours'.
Co-writer/director Tony Prescott will also be at the Gold Coast Film Festival for the world premiere of 'The Pretend One', which will be followed by a Q&A.
Director of fantasy-drama film 'Pulse', Stevie Cruz-Martin, will be present for a Q&A following the Queensland premiere of the film along with writer and producer Claire Harris and Steve Jaggi following the screening of their film 'Zelos'.
Continuing its commitment to supporting women in the film industry, the Gold Coast Film Festival will host the fourth annual Women In Film Luncheon at QT Hotel on Friday, April 20 with special guest speaker Jenny Cooney.
Hollywood powerbroker Jenny Cooney has affectionately earned herself the title of the 'Hollywood Godmother for Australian actors' and is known as the go-to person for Aussie talent wanting to take on the bright lights of Hollywood.
The Festival has also curated a program of films and events on Friday 20 April, inspired by the popular industry hashtag #femalefilmmakerfriday. One of the highlights of the day will be the official launch of Women in Film and Television (WIFT) Australia, the new national advocacy body.
The 2018 Gold Coast Film Festival will also host a program of short film programs including Queensland Scream Fest, showcasing six Queensland short film horrors; Emerge, screening short films from recently graduated film students; and SIPFest, a collection of 12 short films screened on iconic Surfers Paradise beach.
Family fun will be in full swing at the southern end of the Gold Coast, with Dance Classics at Kirra screening 'Strictly Ballroom' on Friday 20 April and 'Happy Feet' on Saturday 21 April at Gilltrap Park, Kirra Beach. With energetic dancing demonstrations and plenty of food trucks on offer, it's sure to be a fun night out under the stars.
Movie trivia returns as the Music and Movie Trivia Night this year, along with the ever-popular Australia-first Gold Coast Movie Locations Tour, which takes guests on a three-hour adventure exploring blockbuster film locations throughout the city.
The Floating Cinema is also back, with guests invited to hop aboard the deluxe Wyndham Cruises boat for a night of 90s prom-night fun and warm apple pie, as classic 'American Pie' is screened ahead of its 20th anniversary year.
Film enthusiasts won't want to miss out on the Brewery Film, 'Fight Club', screened on the new outdoor cinema at Burleigh Brewing Co., or Anime in the Mall with five anime films screening in Broadbeach Mall over two nights.
New Zealand documentary 'No Ordinary Sheila' and English drama 'The Bookshop' will be screened at Birch, Carroll and Coyle Coolangatta for two Senior Morning Teas inclusive of tea, coffee and cake.
The screening of 'Back to Burgundy' on Sunday 22 April is set to be another program highlight, taking guests deep into the vineyards of Burgundy with this classic French drama, which follows the changing seasons of a Burgundy local. Following the screening, guests are invited for an exclusive wine tasting and cheese on the HOTA Café deck.
'I Am Not A Witch', which received a BAFTA for Outstanding Debut in February will also be screened, telling the story of an African witch camp by a Welsh-Zambian director.
In yet another first, the Gold Coast Film Festival will screen a program of short films from Access All Areas Festival, with seven short films especially curated to reflect the experiences of people living with disabilities, screening in a flashing light free environment and with open captions.
Free childcare will return for the third year in 2018, after the Festival became the first in Australia to offer such a service. Childcare is available for bookings across four films and four panels.
The Gold Coast Film Festival is supported by major government partners Screen Queensland, City of Gold Coast, HOTA, Home of The Arts, and Tourism and Events Queensland.
Tickets for all events and films are now on sale at gcfilmfestival.com.

It was chilly over the weekend (Shocker, Shocker) so I decided that Sunday would be the day to stay home and cook. This week's recipe: Dungeness Crab Stuffed Bell Peppers.
Honestly folks...this is one of the best crab recipes I have ever enjoyed. The stuffing stayed a bit crisp, the peppers were not overcooked and bursting with flavor and the sweet mild Dungeness crab meat melded so well with the fresh Mozzarella & Parmesan cheeses.
That crab stuffing was to die for. I must find new uses for it, and try it with Lobster. In my experience anything that is awesome with crab, will be even more so with a nice Maine or Tristan Lobster Tail. More on that experiment later!
Also, this weekend was the first time I got to test drive my new Nikon :)
Gone are the days of slightly blurry photography clipped from the Flip camera. My Flip is outstanding when it comes to video, but for still photography, it was time to move on up!
So here are the recipe and video for the Dungeness Crab Stuffed Bell Peppers. Good photography coming soon!
Dungeness Crab Stuffed Bell Peppers
1/2 cup Panko breadcrumbs
The meat of 1 11/2 -2lb Dungeness Crab
1 stalk celery, chopped
1/2 dry minced onion
4 bell peppers
1 garlic clove, minced
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
salt and pepper to taste
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup shredded fresh mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
Sauté vegetables, excluding bell peppers, in clarified butter until tender (about 5 minutes). Mix in the Crab Meat and bread crumbs. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Stuff bell peppers and cover tops with cheese. Bake 350°F for 30 minutes covered with tinfoil. Remove tinfoil after 30 minutes and continue to bake for another 10 minutes uncovered until cheese becomes brown on top.
Serve immediately.

text: I love antiques and have been collecting since I was 19. Ha, some of the things I got new back then are now considered vintage! While visiting Mexico Beach a few years ago, there was a couple that owned a 1921 Model T at Sharon's Restaurant. I did not have my camera at the time...which was a first by the way, so I did not get pictures. Every year when I return to Mexico Beach, I look for Geraldine. Well this year I got lucky and found her again and got the pictures I wanted years ago. The couple that owns her has an amazing story. He is the 2nd owner of that gem of a car. Ford says you can get it in any color as long as it is black. If you are ever in Mexico Beach look for her and have a wonderful conversation with the owners about their story. Enjoy the pics.

Southbank property market doing fine
17 Oct 2011
Southbank's property market is not as dire as mainstream media would have you believe, according to the real estate agents on the ground in the area.
The Herald Sun reported during October that Melbourne's property market was losing money for "thousands of battling homeowners" and that Southbank was one of the biggest loss-making suburbs.
But Gary Cakir, principal at Evolve Real Estate on Queensbridge Rd told the Southbank Local News it wasn't all doom and gloom.
"Southbank has a lot to offer its residents, and it certainly has great appeal to many investors," Mr Cakir said, and added: "I can confidently say that Southbank is not any worse off than others (suburbs) around Melbourne."
Mr Cakir also noted that the story did not explain possible reasons for selling, saying: "People who sell for a loss generally have a genuine reason for selling, whether that be the purchase of another investment, mortgage stress, employment unavailability, or a change in personal circumstances. We should consider all the underlying motives of sales."
He also said that the type of property within Southbank was another underlying factor. "It's a different demographic here. Apartments are always better for rental growth, and generally not as strong as houses for capital growth," Mr Cakir said.
Andrew Salvo from Salvo Real Estate agreed with Mr Cakir, assuring the Southbank market that it certainly had no need to panic.
"I think it is a media beat-up of mass proportions. There is no doubt that the market has paused as people sit back to see what is happening, however we are still getting really good sales in our buildings," Mr Salvo said.
Mr Salvo went on to say there were plenty of good news stories in the Southbank property market, and plenty of people making money.
"We have had many recent sales that have far exceeded the prices we were selling these apartments for in 2008," he said.
Anton Wongtrakun from Dingle Partners stressed the importance of looking at time when talking about property investment.
"Property is and has always been a long term investment and Southbank has been no different in showing appreciation over the long term," Mr Wongtrakun said.
He said Southbank had its up and downs in the market, but the cycle came around and there was no need for panic.
"Southbank like all other inner city suburbs fluctuates and if you happen to have owners who need to sell at any given point in time, conditions could engender a loss but this does not necessary provide a true reflection of the overall performance of the area," Mr Wongtrakun pointed out.
He went on to say: "Over the last few years we have sold countless properties where owners have enjoyed strong cash-flows and importantly strong capital gains – it's all about the timing."

This week on Civic Commons Radio we widen our perspective—drastically. For our 20th program we decided to seek foreign perspectives on Northeast Ohio, so we sat down with journalists from Jamaica and Serbia. They told us that the reality of America is a bit different than what they thought. Then we talk to a business consultant from Israel whose mission it is to bring businesses from there to here. And finally we hear from Margarita Shulman from the Cleveland Council on World Affairs, who answers the question "Why should journalists care about Cleveland?"

Google+ plus to be shut down in April 2019
WCD Times – In 2018 Google faced a flaw in its Google+ system, Which leaked 52 million users data. Google decided to shut down the Google+ site in few months time. Giving all the Google+ users time to download their data. Not only the Data leak was the problem for Google+ for the shut down, It could not fulfil users anticipation and could not maintain their system involved in using Google+ and a huge competition gap between Facebook and Google+. With Google+ gaining fewer users yearly, By April 2019 Google+ will be fully shutting down.
"From all of us on the Google+ team, thank you for making Google+ such a special place, We are grateful for the talented group of artists, community builders, and thought leaders who made Google+ their home. It would not have been the same without your passion and dedication." Google the announcement said.
But it might be working for some of the few Brands and Companies who are engaging in ads and Marketing with their G Suite and even it is getting an Upgrade soon. If anyone wants to create a new Google+ Profile, they have to do it before February 4, 2019. As of after the given time, Google+ Profile creation won't be available for the public anymore. Right now many of the Apps, Website uses Google+ login button to Login or signup in the App and websites, After the shut down it will be replaced by Google Account Button.

Rachel's Kitchen Eyes Salt Lake City for Further Expansion
June 22, 2018 // Franchising.com // Las Vegas, NV - Rachel's Kitchen - a Las Vegas-based fresh casual restaurant concept that offers a carefully crafted menu, from the healthy to the indulgent - is eyeing Salt Lake City in its first wave of expansion outside of its Las Vegas hub.
While there are no set locations at this point, company founder and CEO Debbie Roxarzade believes the greater Salt Lake City metro can hold as many as four to five eateries over the next several years. The company is particularly eyeing Downtown Salt Lake City, Draper, Farmington and Bountiful.
"We see many visiting customers from Salt Lake City in our Las Vegas restaurants. It just made sense to bring Rachel's Kitchen closer home to those guests," said Roxarzade. "We are pleased with the recognition Rachel's Kitchen has garnered in Nevada and we look forward to the opportunity to see similar acclaim in Utah."
The burgeoning brand offers a carefully crafted menu - from the healthy to the indulgent - using the freshest ingredients available, often locally sourced. Menu highlights include: Breakfast, Salads, Gourmet Sandwiches, Wraps and Juices. A combination of the walk up, carry out experience and a traditional sit-down restaurant, guests place their order at a counter using a wall mounted menu before retreating to a table where the food is brought directly to them, leaving them to comfortably enjoy their meal and a moment of serenity from whatever stresses the rest of their day may hold.
In addition to bringing great food to the table, Rachel's Kitchen is also an active community partner, contributing to a number of local charities from education and animal causes to health advocacy and child care services.
"Giving back is a large part of the DNA of Rachel's Kitchen and will be featured in any community that we become a part of as we continue to grow," Roxarzade added.
Including a franchise fee of $40,000, the estimated required investment for a 1,500-2,100 square foot location ranges between $250,450 and $522,880.
About Rachel's Kitchen
Launched in 2006 and franchising since 2008, Rachel's Kitchen fulfills a niche segment in the restaurant space, transforming fast casual into fresh casual by focusing on wholesome food, with fresh ingredients, often locally sourced. With menu items ranging from healthy to indulgent, Rachel's Kitchen is for everyone. Today there are eight restaurants open and operating in the Las Vegas Valley.

A singer claimed trial in the Kuala Lumpur Sessions Court today to two counts of keeping and confining a sun bear cub at her condominium in Desa Pandan last week.
Zarith Sofia Yasin, 27, only nodded when the charges were read out before judge Manira Mohd Nor.
According to the first charge, Zarith Sofia was alleged to have kept a sun bear cub – a totally protected species under the Second Schedule of the Wildlife Conservation Act 2010 – without a special permit.
The charge under Section 69(1) of the Wildlife Conservation Act 2010 provides for a fine of up to RM200,000 or imprisonment of up to 10 years or both upon conviction.
The singer was also accused of confining the same bear cub in an environment that was not conducive to its comfort and health, and was charged under Section 86(1)(c) of the same act.
The provision carries a fine of not less than RM5,000 and not exceeding RM50,000, or imprisonment for a term not exceeding one year, or both upon conviction.
Zarith Sofia (photo) was alleged to have committed both offences at a Sentrio Pandan Condominium unit in Desa Pandan at 8pm on June 8.
Earlier, deputy public prosecutor Munirah Zainal Abidin did not offer bail on the grounds that a crime involving protected wildlife was a serious offence.
She said, however, that if the court wanted to allow bail, it should be set at RM30,000.
Zarith Sofia, represented by lawyer Mohd Haaziq Pillay Abdullah, appealed for a lower bail on the grounds that she was supporting her family.
The court then allowed the accused an RM10,000 bail in one surety for both charges, with additional conditions that she must report to the police station once a month, not interfere with prosecution witnesses, and surrender her passport to the court until the disposal of the case.
The court fixed July 19 for mention.

The Berlinale Film Festival is one of the most prestigious international festivals in the world. It has such high acclaim as the Venice Festival and the Cannes Film Festival. Filmmakers and the big names from different countries aspire to become part of this festival.
Shouf Shouf Habibi
Shouf Shouf Habibi or Hush Hush Baby was already a popular movie in the Netherlands when it came out. It gained international fame because of its entertainment and comedic qualities. People go to great lengths, even using Agoda discount codes to know where to enter the nation that has created such a great movie.
Most movie makers would pay big bucks to be part of this esteemed festival. Actors from both the local and international scene would flock to this event to display and show their work to a worldwide audience. Actors and actresses dress up and fix themselves from the event. For those in Asia, you can get a coupon code for Althea Philippines to get their products like makeup and other cosmetics.
Since Shouf Shouf Habibi is not just another ordinary movie but a revolutionary film that tackles migration of people from countries like Morocco to Western nations like the Netherlands. Movies with significant value like this one are invited to be shown on the Berlinale Panorama.
Berlinale Festival
This festival is such a big event for the international film industry. Thousands of tickets are sold each year because of the number of movies that are featured in the event. Only around 400 film owners are invited to present their movies to the festival's audience.
It is held in Berlin, Germany. The event occurs every February of the year. You can expect the influx of people from around the world to go to Germany to enjoy the event.
If you are a movie fan and want to experience this festival, you can book hotels weeks or months before to ensure that you will have a place near the area to stay in. If you need to call somebody from your own country and do not know where to go to get minutes for your sim card, you can just buy load online.
