|A rough, raucous, hard-working town that provides livestock at auction to Heartlands landowners, and rest and refreshment to thirsty cowboys. It's nicknamed "Mudtown" because the streets, buildings, and most of the residents are rarely clean.
|—Map description
Valentine is a settlement in Red Dead Redemption 2 in The Heartlands region of the New Hanover territory.
Valentine is a small livestock town, a short ride away from the Horseshoe Overlook camp; the first camp the gang makes after their exodus from the frigid mountains.
Several suppliers and businesses can be found within the town including two saloons, a butcher, a doctor, a general store, a gunsmith, a newspaper stand, and a hotel.
The northern section of Valentine contains the main street with most of the buildings and businesses. The southern section is home to the livestock yards, including various pens, and the auction yard. The east side of town is home to a smaller saloon, a few homes, and the town church.
Temperatures in Valentine are fairly cool and rarely reach double figures (Celsius), even during the day. The nights are also fairly cool, although the temperature won't usually drop below freezing. Valentine is on approximately the same latitude as Van Horn Trading Post.
Valentine is connected to the railway network by a train station situated south-east of the town. Within the station is a post office, where the player can pay off bounties, receive and send mail, or purchase train tickets. Right outside of the station is a stagecoach, where the player can fast travel to a location for a fee.
Northwest of the train station are livestock yards, housing various pens and an auction yard. Across the street to the west is the theater; a tent with a small booth to the right of the entrance where the player can purchase tickets to view a movie inside. Just outside of the theater are numerous wagons, small tents, and campsites. Facing the theater are gallows, where criminals who have been sentenced to death are hanged. Sometimes, executions can be witnessed here, with a gathered crowd to watch.
Just north of the gallows is a butcher's stall, where the player can sell game they have hunted, or buy meat to refill their cores. Across the street and to the north is the stable, an establishment where the player can buy and customize different breeds of horses, purchase customization for their horses, such as saddles or blankets, and alter their horse's hair length and color.
Adjacent to the stable is a building under construction, where builders can be seen carrying and hammering down planks of wood. By 1907, this building is complete with red wooden paneling and a grey, tiled roof. Facing this construction site is the Saints Hotel, where the player can rent a room to bathe, change their clothing, and sleep to refill their cores or to simply pass time.
To the right of the hotel is the bank; a location the player can rob for large sums of money. This bank is robbed in the mission "Sodom? Back to Gomorrah".
Across the street from the bank is Worths General Store; a very useful location where the player can buy a large variety of items such as clothing, food, fishing and hunting bait, ammunition for their weapons, consumables for their horse and a range of tonics. The player can also sell some of their possessions here, most falling under the same categories as the purchasable goods.
To the east of the general store is Smithfield's Saloon, where the player can refill their cores by eating meals, or by purchasing and consuming alcoholic beverages. In front of the left window here is a poker table, where the player can gamble and try their luck to win sums of money. Towards the back of the saloon is a barber, operated by Fern, where the player can trim or style their hair and beard.
Facing the saloon is the Law Office; a tall, yellow building owned by J.W Smith and A.J. Mackey. To the east of the Law Office is the Gunsmith, owned by R.L. Dalton. Here, the player can purchase and customize weapons, restock on ammunition and buy tools to maintain their arms such as gun oil.
Across the street from the gunsmith is the Sheriff's Office; a building where the player can collect bounties for a sum of money, and where the player will stay if arrested by any of Valentine's lawmen.
Across the adjacent street to the Sheriff's office is Valentine Church; a tall, white, wooden building surrounded by graves. To the south of the church is the second tavern in Valentine, Keane's Saloon. Here, the player can consume alcoholic beverages, eat hot meals to refill their cores or try their luck in a game of Five Finger Fillet.
Valentine is the first town the player normally interacts with following the gang's descent from the alpine mining town of Colter. Many of the missions in Chapter 2 are centered in and around Valentine.
Valentine serves as the central stage for the mission "Sodom? Back to Gomorrah", where members of the gang rob the town's bank and forced to fight their way out against lawmen.
In the epilogue, Mary-Beth can be found here, at the train station.

- There are a number of real-life communities in the western United States named Valentine. However, the actual town – its size, surrounding geography, native wildlife, etc. – that most closely resembles the town in the game is Valentine, Nebraska, along with other northern Great Plains towns located in regions near the bases of the Black Hills or Rocky Mountains.
- Valentine's livestock auction site is something associated especially with frontier cattle towns such as Cheyenne, Wyoming, Ogallala, Nebraska, or Abilene, Kansas, all of which became primary sites along the great cattle drives northward from Texas in the 1870s and early 1880s. Cattle drives still occurred on a smaller scale thereafter, but trains took over the transport of livestock to major hubs in Omaha, Nebraska, Kansas City, Missouri, and Chicago, Illinois. The game accurately reflects how, by the 1890s, the American West had passed the great boom era of the long drive, as railroad service had spread across the country to many small towns that were close to regional ranching areas.
- Like Armadillo and Tumbleweed later, Valentine's large number of cheap wooden and false front buildings suggest that it is still, even by 1899, a relatively new (or still unstable) frontier town. Many established small western towns by this time had more structures built with brick, stone, or some other masonry-based materials. The town's narrow, sloping main street further suggests that it was poorly planned or not originally intended to be the town's main street. Most frontier towns featured a flat main street that was wide enough for a wagon with a team of horses to easily conduct a U-turn.
- The streets of Valentine are extremely muddy, and the player's horse will quickly get dirty from riding in the town. Additionally, if the player falls over on to the street, they will get extremely muddy and will need to bathe or change their outfit in order to become clean again.
- The Valentine Curse is something that may be mentioned by Jacob Worth, the shopkeeper in the Worth's General Store, and by R. L. Dalton, the Valentine Gunsmith in his shop. After completing the "Polite Society, Valentine Style", the Curse may be mentioned by Karen in a discussion with Mary-Beth at Horseshoe Overlook. In this conversation, Karen says this Curse is connected to the last remaining Indian in the county, and a grave and an Eagle or an Owl.
- The Cigarette Card for Charles Châtenay can be found the front porch of a house to the northwest.
- The Cigarette Card for Frank Heck can be found on a gravestone to the northeast.
- In the cluster of structures to the southwest are two adjacent wagons. The Cigarette Card for Isadore Reid can be found in the back of one.
- Upstairs in the barn to the south is the Cigarette Card for Fay Delaro.
- On a table inside the train station is the Cigarette Card for Valentine.
- Inside the Magic Lantern Theatre, on a box underneath the projectionist platform, is the Cigarette Card for Nettie Palmer.
- On a pig farm south of town, on a barrel on the porch of the house, is the Cigarette Card for Leviticus Cornwall.
- Due east of the Post Office is a dreamcatcher, about halfway to Cornwall Kerosene & Tar.
- Due south of Valentine is a dreamcatcher, about halfway to Camp Horseshoe Overlook, near where the road crosses the train tracks, in the woods to the west of the tracks.
- Southwest of Valentine is a dreamcatcher, north of the main road, about halfway to Downes Ranch.
- A group of O'Driscolls can be found in the backroom of the doctor's office, and can be killed to obtain money and a Schofield Revolver.

A Galway squat has recently been evicted. The property had been recently taken over by Bank of Scotland who are appointed KPMG as caretakers of the property.
KPMG audited the accounts of Anglo Irish Bank during the boom period. Now they make money as liquidators, taking over and selling the property of people who have gotten into bad debt
maybe because they took out a dodgy loan with Anglo? They made loads of money during the boom, and since the crash, they're there waiting like vultures to make even more money.

It's terrible to know that evictions are happening in Ireland on a large scale. The banks with the help of the Fianna Fáil/Green Government wrecked the economy. Now the banks with the help of the Fine Gael/Labour Government are evicting people. It should be the other way around - the people evicting the banks and the government parties.

Homelessness is one of the most devastating things that can happen in your life,and the gardai have facilitated the banks reposession,shame on them.

Brand New Sin Bio
Joe Altier - Lead Vocals
Slider - Guitar/Vocals
Chuck Kahl - Bass
Kris Wiechmann - Guitar
Ken Dunham - Guitar
Mike Rafferty - Drums
"This record will make you want to play air guitar in front of the mirror again, like Appetite For Destruction," according to guitarist Ken Dunham.That's quite a ballsy statement for a new band to make, but Brand New Sin's devil/may/care attitude is as confident and refreshing as the dirty, blues-infused hard rock they make. When a band follows in the tradition of legends like Iron Maiden, Lynyrd Skynyrd and Black Sabbath and powers its rock with three guitarists it ends up sounding like Motorhead after a fist fight with Down and Corrosion Of Conformity. Hailing from Syracuse, once considered the straight edge, hardcore capitol of the world, Brand New Sin features former members of the critically acclaimed metalcore band Godbelow. Thanks to its masculine riffs and brawny vocals, Brand New Sin could easily redefine Syracuse as a town that produces solid, blue-collar rock bands, as opposed to manufacturing samey moshcore. Brand New Sin, named after what the band describes as the "birth of something bad and the epitome of gluttony," formed when Godbelow wanted to go in a new direction. Since Godbelow embodied a specific type of reputation, the band decided to change their name in accordance with their new sound. BNS now resembles a mesmerizing amalgam of sludgy, dirt-under-the-fingernails, calloused skin rock and down home, southern style blues. These fine young gentlemen knew they wanted to play a bourbon-soaked blend of rock-n-roll and started composing those types of songs. Unfortunately, they lacked the key ingredient: the right singer. Enter Joe Altier, a friend of a friend, a burly man with the deep, husky voice; one that is clear and doesn't require you to sit down with a lyric sheet in order to decipher his barks. BNS invited him to sing on "Broken Soul" and the rest, as they say, is history. Brand New Sin, and their hulking self-titled, Now Or Never Records debut, is one of those rare rock records that is erected through talent, skill, passion and an iron clad work ethic. Brand New Sin was produced by local knobsman Pete Walker at Village Recorders in Liverpool, New York. The album boasts such raw fury that will propel BNS to the status of "the next big thang in rock." The mighty "S.P.P" and the soul purging "My World" could put hair on the chest of even the hottest supermodel on the planet. "Brand New Sin is unyielding rock-n-roll power and timelessness," says Altier, "You can pick this record up twenty years from now and it will still feel as fresh and relevant as it does today." Indeed, Brand New Sin could ultimately join the ranks of classic bands like Led Zeppelin. Guitarist Kris Wiechmann adds, "Our album is like the first drink an alcoholic takes after walking out of rehab; it feels fucking great." While you let your hair down when listening, Brand New Sin isn't hedonistic, mindless rock 'n roll. It feels down, dirty, and sweaty, but it's backed up by thoughtful lyrical content. Slider and Altier share lyrical duties and Altier says the lyrics deal with "struggles with oneself. They're very personal, but vague enough to where they can be adapted by anyone. Make 'em your own." When speaking about the music, Weichmann says, "We have moshy, fast parts and a lot of people are fooled by that. However, we can also write a song that will make you cry." Continuing on that line of thought, Slider finishes, "We weren't pigeonholed into writing full out ballistic music. I can write acoustic songs as well." For a more concrete example of BNS's songwriting complexities, check out the beautifully understated album track, "Missin You." Brand New Sin will dominate the world afterwards through non-stop touring, systematically capturing the filthy hearts of every rock hound on international soil. The 1% of the population that might accidentally sleep on this record, Dunham has the answer, "this band is unlimited music and won't be overlooked."
Brand New Sin: no boundaries, no limits, and nowhere to go but up.

It's Wonderful Wednesday at Kraftin Kimmie!!!
For my card, I decided to create one with a fun little Christmas Baking theme! I chose this adorable elf from the Made By Elves set and found some patterned papers with Christmas candies and cookies. Then I colored my image to match, die cut him on my Scan N Cut 2 and popped him on top of this little shaker. I added a die cut "Merry" and stamped Christmas on to a little brown tag. I heat embossed it in white and popped it on top of the shaker as well. Some little die cut gingerbread people and some misc. sequins finish off the card.

A troubled nuclear power station strategy in the USA has Toshiba considering the partial sale of its Japanese semiconductor business.
Nikkei (in Japanese) names Western Digital as a potential buyer, along with several investment funds.
The company hopes to get between $1.77bn and $2.65bn for a 20 per cent stake in the business, Nikkei reckons.
Memory is the bulk of the company's chip business, which had revenue of 1.57 trillion yen (nearly $14bn) in 2015. Western Digital would be a logical partner, since the two companies run a flash memory plant in Yokkaichi in the Mie Prefecture.
Toshiba struck trouble after spending years buying up rivals in the nuclear energy business. In December, it warned it would to take a hit of several billion dollars over the 2015 acquisition of CB&I Stone & Webster, a nuclear power plant construction concern. The 2006, $5.4bn acquisition of Westinghouse has also proved troublesome, and in 2015 Toshiba had to write down the value of that business by $2.3bn.
It's not the first time Toshiba's memory business has been under a cloud. In December 2015, the company denied speculation it would exit the NAND business, amid an accounting scandal.
Toshiba was caught outoverstating profits by $1.2bn over several years. ®

As Parliament continued Tuesday afternoon, the Hon Minister for Finance, Prime Minister Dr Roosevelt Skerrit received more support for the supplementary estimates of over $155 million presented to the House that morning.
The Hon Minister for Enterprise and Small Business Development, Roselyn Paul expressed full support for the estimates of which $5.1 million went to small business development.
Hon Paul praised Government's efforts to decentralise funding which she says is an important approach to spread the culture of entrepreneurship and strengthen the private sector.
"It speaks to more equitable distribution of resources and inclusion of all. This strategy encourages entrepreneurial activity in rural communities as increasingly we the Government of Dominica strive to develop strategies to sustain local economies," she said.
The Hon Small Business Minister revealed that from the period July 2016 to April 2017, 479 small businesses in eight communities have benefitted from $2.8 million.
"This is in addition to other applicants who benefitted from the ministry's overall programme. When I speak of this, I speak here of the several small agro-processors who are benefitting; the virgin oil producers; the cocoa producers; the herbal tea producers; those involved in the production of sweets and confectionary; those making cassava bread; breadfruit and potato flour; the bee-keepers engaged in production for the local and export market."
Hon Paul says these funds have also impacted small hair-braiders, poultry and livestock farmers, craft-makers and fashion designer who are now more empowered and gainfully employed because of government's investments.
Small business owners are also receiving training.
"Funds are not just disbursed and people and remain on their own but they are supported by technical advice, training and monitoring. In fact, in the last 2 months we have trained 369 small entrepreneurs in six villages in various districts; and even as we speak today, there is ongoing training this week, for example, in two additional communities."
Hon Paul is confident that the investments made in these communities are translating into additional jobs and empowerment of small business owners.

The amount of money required in obtaining a Bengal cat also depends upon where you're likely to receive your own Bengal. In case you choose to get your cat from a respectable breeder, then you should be preparing a bigger amount. But if you're going to get your Bengal cat from a rescue centre, it is only going to cost you a lot less because you will be adopting the cat. Nevertheless, you should still think about the costs in keeping your Bengal cat.

FEDĀʾĪ ḴORĀSĀNĪ, MOḤAMMAD, b. Zayn-al-ʿĀbedīn b. Karbalāʾī Dāwūd (b. ca. 1266/1850; d. 1342/1923), foremost Persian Nezārī Ismaʿili author and poet of modern times, who is referred to as Ḥājī Āḵūnd in the Persian Nezārī community. Fedāʾī was born in Dezbād/Dīzbād or Dezbād-e Bālā (Razmārā, Farhang IX, p. 180), an Ismaʿili village in the mountains between Mašhad and Nīšāpūr in northern Khorasan. He was a descendant of Emāmqolī Ḵākī Ḵorāsānī, an important Nezārī poet of the Safavid times (d. after 1056/1646). After completing his early education in Dezbād and Darrūd, another Ismaʿili village near Nīšāpūr, Fedāʾī spent some time in Mašhad, studying the religious sciences, including feqh and kalām, at the Bāqerīya madrasa (Herātī, Intro., p. 3).
In 1313/1896, Fedāʾī set off on the first of his three journeys to India to see the Nezārī imam of the time, Solṭān Moḥammadšāh Āqā Khan III (1885-1957; see ĀQĀ KHAN). In 1317/1900, Fedāʾī visited Bombay again and stayed there for a few years, also gaining access to Āqā Khan's valuable library. In 1321/1903, the Nezārī imam finally gave an audience (dīdār) to Fedāʾī and on that occasion issued a farmān appointing him as the moʿallem (teacher) in charge of the religious affairs of the Persian Nezārī community. On his return journey, Fedāʾī passed through Ḥejāz and made the pilgrimage to Mecca, whence his popular designation of Ḥājī Āḵūnd. In 1324/1906, Fedāʾī, leading a group of prominent Nezārīs from Dezbād, paid his last visit to the Nezārī imam in Bombay, where he also testified in court on behalf of Āqā Khan III in the course of the hearings of the famous Ḥājī Bībī Case, concerning the case of claims filed by Ḥāji Bībī, a cousin of Āqā Khan, against the latter's estate and income (Āqā Khan, pp. 79-80).
During the turbulent years of the Constitutional Revolution in Persia, Fedāʾī, who had hitherto been campaigning successfully throughout the Nezārī community of Khorasan for strengthening the religious identity of the Persian Nezārīs and the authority of Āqā Khan III, fell victim to the intrigues of some dissident Ismaʿilis, who, under the leadership of Morād Mīrzā, were challenging the Āqā Khan's authority, and to the persecutions of some local Twelver ʿolamāʾ. Until then, the Persian Nezārīs had observed their religious rituals mainly in the manner of the Twelver Shiʿites. Āqā Khan III eventually succeeded in preventing persecution of his Khorasani followers through the intervention of the British consul at Mašhad (Daftary, 1990, pp. 534-38).
Fedāʾī composed several doctrinal works, including the Eršād al-sālekīn, the Kašf al-ḥaqāʾeq, the Ketāb-e dāneš-e ahl-e bīneš, and the Ḥadīqat al-maʿānī, a treatise on feqh. Copies of these unpublished works, not listed in Fedāʾī's sections in the Ismaʿili bibliographies of Wladimir Ivanow (pp. 153-54) and Ismail K. Poonawala (pp. 284-85), were shown to the present writer in Dezbād and Mašhad in 1985 by Fedāʾī's sole surviving grandson, Ṣadr-al-Dīn b. Mollā Šams-al-Dīn Mīršāhī. Fedāʾī also composed, probably at the suggestion of Āqā Khan III, a history of Ismaʿilism entitled Hedāyat al-moʾmenīn al-ṭālebīn, the first work of its kind by a modern Nezārī author. It is, however, permeated with all types of errors and extends from the origins of Ismaʿilism to the Āqā Khans and the modern times; its copies are preserved by the Nezārīs of Badaḵšān in Afghanistan and Tajikestan (Berthels and Baqoev, p. 102). The sections on the Āqā Khans, comprising the most interesting parts of this work, were evidently added around 1328/1910 by a certain Mūsā Khan b. Moḥammad Ḵorāsānī, who died in Poona in 1937 (see Daftary, 1984). Mūsā Khan and his father had been in the service of the Āqā Khans in Bombay. Fedāʾī's dīvān of poetry, collected by his descendants and still unpublished, contains about 12,000 verses. His poetry, mainly in the form of maṯnawīs, qaṣīdas, or ḡazals are not generally of high quality. They deal primarily with religious and didactic themes or are eulogies of the Nezārī imams. Fedāʾī died in Dezbād and was buried there next to Ḵākī Ḵorāsānī; the site was modestly repaired in 1966.
Details on Fedāʾī's life and works are contained in Ṣadr-al-Dīn Mīršāhī's unpublished biography of Fedāʾī and also in the introduction to one of Mīršāhī's collections of Fedāʾī's works (MSS Mīršāhī Collection, Mašhad).

Domain Name Services
Domain names are an essential part of every Internet business, and you need to ensure that you keep yours protected. Creating a successful website for your business is essential, and there are several elements, which will ensure that it is a massive success. Once you have selected the perfect name for your website and business, you will need someone to host the site.
Many inexperienced website owners will decide to combine the hosting services and domain registering as a package. However, this can lead to issues and problems in the future if you decide that you want to change your hosting company. Combining the two services may seem like a logical process; however, it can leave you in a difficult position.
There are several incredibly experienced hosting companies that can take control of the whole process of domain names, registering and hosting. However, it is always advised to be a part of the process to ensure that you understand how your website is operating. Far too many businesses have lost their website and domain name through a falling out with the hosting company.
If possible you should always register your business name in your name, with your details. This will ensure that you can edit the details in the future and that all enquiries regarding your domain name will come direct to you. If the hosting company has full control, they may take advantage of the situation, and over charge you when it comes to renewing your domain names.
Successful names will generate an immense array of interest, therefore, making them inviting for hosting companies to be greedy. Once the company knows your name is a success, they may try to charge you more, which is unsatisfactory practice. This thankfully does not happen as often as it once did, however, remaining in control and being aware is essential.
It may cost you more to use two separate companies for the services; however, it will ensure that there are no issues in the future. You will be able to be in control of registering the domain name, and leave the hosting to the professionals. If you decide to change the hosting company, there will be no fear that your name will be affected.
There are many different services which are on offer; therefore, research is essential to guarantee that you receive the best deal. Taking the time to research different companies and domain name services will ensure that your domain names are secure, and your website is hosted by the best. Once your hosting is established, and your domain name in place, you can begin to enjoy your website.

A creamy vegan butternut squash soup with coconut milk. This recipe is simple to make and can be enjoyed during the pumpkin season in fall. Infusing your vegan butternut squash soup recipe with coconut milk is a great way to make it extra creamy and richer in its flavor.
Pumpkin soup is the way to go this fall. If you are looking for a way to enjoy the cold days, try out this vegan butternut squash soup which is made with coconut cream and therefore super creamy and full of flavor.
Butternut Squash and Coconut Milk
Adding coconut milk to your pumpkin soup makes your soup creamy and more flavorful. It's also a great way to enjoy a creamy vegan butternut squash soup – as the coconut milk is an excellent dairy-free cream substitute.
How To Make Vegan Butternut Squash Soup
One of the best things about this butternut squash soup is that there is not a lot of work involved. Just a few simple steps until you can enjoy your hot comfort soup.
- Peel and chop the garlic and onion. Cook for a few minutes in coconut oil.
- Cut the butternut squash in half, scoop out the seeds using a spoon, and cut away the skin using a vegetable peeler. Chop into small cubes and add it with pumpkin seeds oil to the pot.
- Add vegetable broth and coconut milk and let it simmer for 20 minutes with the lid closed.
- Blend your butternut squash coconut soup and season it with lime juice, coconut sugar, salt, and pepper.
Recipe Variations
- If you don't have pumpkin seeds oil at home, you can leave it out. It gives your soup a richer pumpkin flavor, but it's still delicious without it.
- Use any kind of sugar instead of coconut sugar.
- Substitute the butternut squash with another winter squash or mix them up if you have pumpkin leftovers to use.

At least 30 shacks have been ravaged in a blaze at the Bremmer informal settlement in Daspoort, Pretoria, leaving about 120 people homeless on Monday, EWN reported.
Three people were reportedly injured in the blaze and were rushed to hospital.
Tshwane emergency services spokesperson Charles Mabaso told EWN that it was unclear what started the fire.
"With wind like this and the hot conditions we've been experiencing, one cannot rule out the possibility of a veld fire," he reportedly said.
Gauteng has been experiencing heatwave conditions since the weekend, and the South African Weather Service (SAWS) has issued warnings that there was a higher probability of veld fires.
Also on Monday, a fire at an informal settlement in Belgravia, Cape Town, claimed two lives, News24 reported.
Two badly burnt bodies were recovered after structures caught alight in Vygieskraal in Johnson Road, said City of Cape Town fire and rescue services spokesperson Jermaine Carelse.
On September 30, around 900 people were left homeless when a fire destroyed nearly 200 shacks in the Pomona informal settlement in Kempton Park, north east of Johannesburg.
According to Ekurhuleni emergency services spokesperson Aaron Mafunda, no deaths were reported, despite the extent of the blaze.

Budapest is indeed an interesting city. What's so interesting about this city is not how rich it is, but how simple.
Life pace is slow here, in the capital city of Hungary. I believe it could be even slower in other parts of the country. One noticable fact about this city is people rarely use 'smartphones', which could be a result of several factors: one possibly being people just don't earn that much. However, having many electronic gadgets only gives you endless sources of distractions, instead of deep, meaningful thoughts. Therefore not having smartphones could actually help them become smarter (ironic huh?)!
This country, and therefore this city, was once under the rein of Soviet Union. That fact leads to an another interesting phenomenon: public transport infrastructures are mostly legacies from Soviet Union era; which means the buses, trams, subway cars etc, are mostly very old, some are even antique-like (but obviously endurable!), and with Soviet Union style.
Thermal bath is one of the most notable tourist attractions of the city. My girl friend and I took it twice at Gellert Hotel. Indeed, such baths do have some curing effects. One side note: In the changing room of the thermal bath facility, there was a 80-ish Hungarian opa having a small talk with me. According to his own words, he has been visiting to the thermal bath of Gellert Hotel almost everyday, for the past 70+ years! He is certainly the living proof of the curing effects of Hungarian thermal baths!
As I indicated above, things are not fancy, modern or 'high-tech' there. However, I constantly felt Hungarian people are really special. During my stay in the city, I got an impression that Hungarians in general, are very polite, laid-back and happy people. They showed me something different than western Europe, especially their firm bondings with family members; which reminds me once again there are things money cannot buy - family and love.
I would love to visit Hungary again, but with an automobile next time :)
For the record, I spent less than 400 euros (including airline return tickets, hotels, traffic and food) during this 6-days-5-nights trip. If you want to have an economic trip somewhere in Europe, Hungary definitely should be on top of your list.

One of the world's most prestigious ballet competitions, the Prix Benois de la Danse is awarded at the Bolshoi Theatre in Moscow, Russia every year in order to give credit to the best of dance talents in the world for their achievements over the past year, such as best choreographer, as well as the best male and female dancer.
Arguably on par with the Oscars, the awards credit the world's stages' most prestigious and outstanding talent. The 2013 ceremony at the Bolshoi saw many high achievers collect their awards. Choreographer Hans van Manen was honoured for his Variations for Two Couples with the Dutch National Ballet, and Christopher Wheeldon was also honoured for his production of Cinderella with the Dutch National Ballet. Congratulations were also awarded to John Neumeier, who is the director and choreographer of the Hamburg Ballett, for his Life Achievement award for dance.
In terms of dancers, ballerina Olga Smirnova of the Bolshoi Ballet was acknowledged for her roles performed at the Bolshoi Theatre, such as Nikia in La Bayadere, Aspicia in The Pharaoh's Daughter, and Anastasia in Ivan the Terrible. Additionally, Alban Lendorf of The Royal Danish Ballet was applauded for his role Armand Duval in The Lady of Camellias and Vadim Muntagirov was also honoured for his role as the Prince in English National Ballet's Sleeping Beauty when he danced alongside the company's artistic director Tamara Rojo.
The Prix Benois de la Danse was founded by the International Dance Association in Moscow in 1991, taking place annually and judged by a dance jury consisting of the 'top' ballet folk whose members change every year. The competition recognises exceptional events and incredible talent with monetary awards, based on the previous year of the industry, including choreographic accomplishments in addition to recognising dancing roles.

Finally we get some good news from the government.
They are postponing the increase in refugee quota… a broken promise we won't mind the government breaking: Quote.
The Government has stalled on plans to double New Zealand's refugee quota – and it's because of the housing crisis.
Immigration Minister Iain Lees-Galloway says Aotearoa need to sort that before it thinks about welcoming more refugees.
The refugee crisis is still very much a crisis, however, and the Government has pledged to do its bit.
"It is still my intention to see an increase in the refugee quota to 1500," says Mr Lees-Galloway.
This was a major campaign promise, but 10 months on it seems to have stalled, from what the Minister is saying.
"What we have to do is make sure we've got the capacity to take those extra people."
Translation: we just don't have enough homes.
"It's no good bringing in more people if we can't give them good resettlement opportunities here in New Zealand," says Mr Lees-Galloway.
Newshub understands the Government had hoped to announce an increase to the quota on World Refugee Day. That was June 20 – a month ago.
Now the Minister is saying things like "in due course" and "it's my intention" – nowhere near as urgent as the language used on the election campaign. End quote.
Oh dear, how sad, never mind.
I love it when a broken promise is actually good news… even better when it is Twyford's fault for not fixing housing.

The exhibition continues at the RCA, Kensington Gore, London SW7 until 20 March.
The Royal College of Art's centenary exhibition celebrates the work of its graduates, and is also a tribute to good design education. José Manser reports
Starting out as the Government School of Design in 1837, the Royal College of Art was given its present name in 1896. So 1996 marks an important centenary milestone in the life of what some call the Oxbridge of post-graduate design education.
There are institutions with similar aspirations and achievements. But none evoke such expectation of excellence, the aura of confidence, as the RCA. It's a special place, a fact of which its students are aware, and Pro-Rector Christopher Frayling had the idea of marking its centenary with an exhibition called Design of the times to explain the vital role that design and designers from the RCA have played in shaping the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. This demonstrates the profusion of fine designs which originated there, the well-known designers of various nationalities who sprang to prominence in the RCA's stimulating atmosphere, and it also brings into focus less charismatic characters who have taken their quieter talents into every corner of visual life: designing textiles, books, films, exhibitions, clothes, cars – and practically anything else you can think of.
As the college is in constant need of funding and sponsorship, this exhibition – sponsored by Korean firm LG Electronics at a cost of 180 000 – aims to raise public awareness of its importance. Fine art does not feature largely, as the show's organisers want to put the record straight about the RCA's status as a school of design.
Curator Claire Catterall has painted the RCA's history from its inception in 1837, when teaching was politically directed, narrow and governed by rules which would cause a student riot today. Enduring prolonged birth pangs, it was the object of political argy bargy about its purpose and constitution. It was years before it overcame damage wrought by men who misunderstood the school's real purpose. Catterall has dealt kindly with these early days, showing examples of the classical casts and drawings from which students were required to become copyists, the paintings they were encouraged to make and the "good taste" articles they were shown, without laying excessive emphasis on the negative aspects of this early order.
Things improved in the 1850s with Henry Cole, who, despite widespread resistance, determined it should be a place where designers for industry were both educated and trained, albeit in a rigidly predetermined way. Students were now "designing" things, the most ambitious being the Duke of Wellington's funeral car (not an unequivocal success) and a pillar box for the Post Office – on which they worked with teacher Richard Redgrave. As well as these, there are drawings and designs by Christopher Dresser, who studied and taught at the school, and examples of his teaching diagrams.
The school was now in its stride – one which wavered periodically over the years ahead – and there is a fascinating section showing the work of famous Victorians: Edward Lutyens' inimitable architectural drawings, Kate Greenaway illustrations, a Gertrude Jekyll student sketchbook from the 1860s and garden drawings published in her maturity. As the school broadened in scope, fine artists took their place alongside teacher-training and the practical skills. Sculpture by teachers Jules Dalou and Edouard Lanteri is shown, as is work by Alfred Dury, who sculpted figures on the main entrance to the
Victoria and Albert Museum. Following the short-lived appointment of Arts and Crafts exponent Walter Crane as head in 1898, there was a swing towards the tenets of this movement which is well represented: WR Lethaby's master's chair, Beresford Pite's design for a Brixton church, stained glass by Christopher Whall and a water-colour by Crane himself. There are examples of calligraphy by Edward Johnson, who taught at the college until 1939.
In 1896 the National Art Training School was granted permission by Queen Victoria to become the RCA with its own diploma. By now the college was divided into four departments – mural and decorative painting, sculpture and modelling, architecture and design – under the influential Professor WR Lethaby.
The exhibition doesn't specifically address the role of women in art education, which was of a pretty lowly nature during the early years. But Sylvia Pankhurst was a student in 1904/5 before being irrevocably claimed by the Suffragette movement, and some of her work – of a suitably activist nature – is exhibited. So are trenchant criticisms of the college (in which she joined) which surfaced a few years later in a recurrence of the attacks which have marked its history. One department to escape the general abuse was Sculpture and Modelling, and the exhibition features work by CS Jagger, who after service in the First World War made many war sculptures, the most prominent being his monument at Hyde Park Corner.
The history of the RCA between the wars, under principal William Rothenstein with his successful policy of "training for a specific purpose, combined with the best possible general education through the arts", began illustriously. His son John later wrote: "A generation rich in talent was gathering in the classroom." This became a golden period for both fine artists and designers. The students whose work Catterall exhibits include Henry Moore, Barbara Hepworth and Paul Nash, Eric Ravilious, Edward Bawden and Enid Marx. Of great interest is design work by those who became renowned fine artists: textiles by Moore and Hepworth, silk scarves by Moore and John Piper, posters by Nash. The London Underground posters by Nash, Barnett Freedman, Bawden, Ravilious and Marx evoke a treasured and historic era.
One body of work comes as a surprise: Yardley packaging, textiles, lacquer work, and graphics are part of the huge output of Reco Capey RDI, who headed the design school in the 1920s and 1930s. By the late 1930s the golden years were over, with the college again the butt of criticism for its inadequate approach to industrial design. But the Second World War intervened, resulting in evacuation to Ambleside, a period recorded chiefly by a Gilbert Spencer oil painting and Picture Post-type illustrations of students working in converted pigeon lofts.
When the war ended, the RCA as we know it began to take shape. The new principal, Robin Darwin, brought winds of change – bearing ideals of excellence, autonomy (it became an educational charitable foundation) and proper training for industrial designers. His commitment, coupled with the influx of highly motivated ex-service people and the spur of such exhibitions as Britain Can Make It and the Festival of Britain, led to subjects for study becoming more specialised.
Handsome exhibits appeared in the years of Darwin's reign: a silver kettle by Robert Gooden, book jackets by John Minton, Shell posters by Richard Guyatt. But it was the post-war generation who initiated thoughtful, practical designs so characteristic of this period: silverware by David Mellor and Gerald Benney, furniture by Ron Carter and Robert Heritage, graphics by David Gentleman and Henri Henrion, Lucienne Days' textiles.
Catterall has divided this major post-war period into decades. They represent work done by designers in the ten years after they left the college. Well-known names proliferate. Representing the 1960s are ceramics by David Queensberry and Martin Hunt, steelware by Robert Welch, Peter Murdoch's famous cardboard chair, furniture by Geoffrey Harcourt, Jane Dillon and Peter Colwell, fashion by Ossie Clark and Bill Gibb. Henrion, Alan Fletcher, Brian Tattersfield, Jock Kinnear and Margaret Calvert, Peter Blake, David Hockney and Len Deighton – the list goes on.
Post-war euphoria evaporated by the 1970s, but there were still peaks of achievement. It was then that Fred Scott produced his Supporto chair for Hille, BIB its Durabeam torch, Martin Smith designs for the Audi Quattro. Fashion designers Zandra Rhodes and Anthony Price were fêted by the media, Roger Dean made marvellous record album covers. Illustrators such as Dan Fern, Quentin Blake and Nicola Bayley demonstrated the college's quality, and there was furniture by Jane Dillon, Fred Baier and Floris van den Broecke. Almost all these distinguished people are still at work.
In the 1980s, interior designers sprang to the fore. The dynamism of work by Ben Kelly, Julian Powell Tuck and David Connor suited the prevailing mood of bravado. Paul Priestman's Cactus radiators, Daniel Weil's degree show radio, lighting for Memphis by Gerry Taylor and the new computer aesthetics of Geoff Hollington, Nick Oakley and Winfried Sheuer demonstrate the use of new materials, exploration of new forms and breaking down of old barriers.
In the wider world, the 1990s have not been the best of times. But looking at the work of RCA graduates during the past five years this seems hard to believe, and the exhibition closes on a high note. Catterall says: "This has been a time of ideas, of pared-down design, of design used to enhance everyday tasks and change our approach to living." The quieter, cerebral mood is manifest in work on show: David Constantine's wheelchair, a wind-up radio by Andy Davey, Paul Priestman's soft fan, furniture by James Irvine, Michael Marriot's Kit chair and hat stand, brooches by Christoph Zellweger, fold-out furniture by Tomoko Azumi – who was a star at last year's degree show- and a quietly clever idea for recasting rice by Ishiguro Takeshi. The wealth of material Catterall has been able to call upon is overwhelming. Clearly, whatever travails it has endured en route, the RCA is currently riding high. Visitors to the centenary exhibition will be impressed.
