Mordor says He returned only for Visa reasons. They did some math and understood that Sam had been there for almost 90 days, só It was time for a quick walk home.
Dear Visa Anon,
Which Mordor luminary came with this idea? The MENSA-level CRT Clique or Miss Marple, who thinks I know nothing (the Dimwit from Madrid is still learning how to spell, so I can't believe it's her)?
Regardless. These people should immediately stop watching Ninety-Day Fiancé on their cable network, following a severe overdose on Uzbek midgets and Egyptian gigolos 'looking for true love' stories.
Maybe they could also have checked their facts before solemnly stating bullshit, since they clearly think all the visitors to the wonderful U S of A are tourists and as such, entitled to a maximum 90-day stay at a time (and then a short hike to Tijuana or Canada and back on tracks: not EDI/GLA, FFS!).
Incidentally, may I remind these geniuses that S has been spotted only near EDI, which of course would mean for them he'd be getting his visa there. Unless...
Tumblr media
Unless you know the US General Consulate in EDI does not issue any type of visas - LOL, idiots. And unless he'd need to be in LHR for the pre-appointed interview and then another 7 working days delay for processing and 1-3 working days for passport delivery by mail only (never in person, chickadees). Doesn't really click with timelines, Madam Expert.
Because they are all very intelligent, they also forgot everything about/never bothered to look for the new-ish ESTA system (https://www.handyvisas.com/esta-us-visa/british/), especially designed for Visa Waiver countries' citizens. So I insist: if traveling as a tourist, S does not need a visa to enter the US for up to 90 days - that is correct, but by no means applicable to S's reality. And if he knew he'd need to stay more than 90 days, he would have applied for a visa - mandatory - in London before the Summer of Sassenach tour.
But he is not traveling as a tourist and very probably not under another type of non-immigrant visa, simply because he has businesses there and he is also involved in the OL project with *** (d'oh!).
Let's unpack:
As per US current regulations, S cannot apply for a B-1 (business non immigrant visa). To understand why, kindly refer to the US Customs and Border Protection FAQ (https://www.cbp.gov/sites/default/files/documents/B-1%20permissible%20activities.pdf). I already munched it up for you:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
He could only apply for a O-1 B immigration visa, for which his agent or employer should mandatorily petition the US Citizenship and Immigration Services. These are special visas designed for the individual who (...) has a demonstrated record of extraordinary achievement in the motion picture or television industry and has been recognized nationally or internationally for those achievements. This is very subjective and a contract with * should be enough - I was in a taxi when I received your ask and immediately checked with a friend from the US Consulate, to indulge you. And all this hassle just because a Tumblr Nobody has flatulent opinions, huh?
According to the USCIS's own regulations, not Dutch fantasy or Belfast sagas, the authorized period of stay and possibility of extension are as follows (https://www.uscis.gov/working-in-the-united-states/temporary-workers/o-1-visa-individuals-with-extraordinary-ability-or-achievement):
Tumblr media
The good thing about getting this visa (and I think * sorted it out a long time ago for both of them) is that it helps tremendously with the Green Card procedures, something I bet the farm both S & C already have, by now.
So doing the maths was perfectly inane and useless.
Does that answer your question, clever Anon? Can I go back to the Quaich post I must finish (it will be VERY long, beware) today?
Thanks for asking and I am sorry for the length: this fandom being paranoid, I had to include all the tedious details. I hope we can put this idiocy to rest, now. Parochial twits.

'Afternoon, all...it's Mr. Baggins, back with your Afternoon Stack of Classic Wax! I thought today might be a good day for Part Two of our ongoing series about Herb Alpert and The Tijuana Brass. Let's grab that Tijuana Taxi and head south!
youtube
Let's go back to the beginning, all the way back to 1962! Here is the very first Tijuana Brass record. It's Alpert solo, with his trumpet part overdubbed and a touch out of sync. It's also the very first record issued on A & M Records, which Alpert formed with business partner Jerry Moss; they also formed their own publishing company "Almo Music, Inc." A & M went on to be the largest independent record label in the world. The distinctive "gold" version of the label (like the one above) came later that next year. Here is The Lonely Bull.
youtube
With all the airplay on TV and commercials, there was no shortage of demand for new TJB music. For the next seven years, they would have hit after hit after hit, until Alpert disbanded them in 1969. Let's hear another big hit from '66, his version of "What Now My Love?"
youtube
The drummer, Nick Ceroli, was a well-respected jazz drummer, boisterous enough to hold his own in Stan Kenton's big band, a guy who must have cut his teeth playing for strippers! Here is the TJB's stripper-ready version of the old '50s hit "Love Potion #9".
youtube
In '68, Herb sang the Bacharach/David tune "This Guy's In Love With You", which became a number one smash. The album it was taken from, "The Beat of The Brass", included this great tune, which was co-written by Alpert and TJB guitarist John Pisano. Pisano, btw, was an astoundingly talented jazz guitarist. Here is "Slick".
youtube
Now this next one is an absolute gem. It came from the album "Herb Alpert's Ninth", and was one of the biggest singles from that album. It's a pop-musical tour-de-force of the main themes from Bizet's Carmen. Each little sub-section is self-reflexively done in the style of one of the TJB's EARLIER hits...you'll recognize the "What Now My Love" section, etc. It's really a piece of pop musical genius. I've played you Vladimir Horowitz' "Carmen Variations", which he played at the end of his Television Concert. Alpert must have seen it and composed this arrangement as a response. Here is the TJB's "Carmen"!
youtube
Here's a tune composed by TJB guitarist John Pisano for Peggy Lee. Pisano was her guitarist as well! Her vocal version became a hit, as did the TJB's version, in '66. Here's "So What's New?"
youtube
As I've said before, I learned how to make an arrangement by listening to these guys obsessively as a kid growing up. They fascinated me with how they layered and constructed the arrangement and built the sound. And the playfulness and freedom with which they re-arranged old hits was just a kick, like this one. Taken from the "Sounds like..." album in '67, here is their total re-work of Gene Pitney's "Town Without Pity". And that's drummer Nick Ceroli doing the honors on the whoops and shouts throughout.
youtube
The same playfulness is evident in their version of The Supremes' "The Happening", from the same album in '67.
youtube
And I thought I'd wrap up this Afternoon Stack of Classic Wax with the 45 version of their re-work of "Zorba The Greek", from late '65. It's actually quite different from the LP version that's on the "Going Places" album. Enjoy!
youtube
That wraps up another Afternoon Stack of Classic Wax! Hope you've enjoyed today's installment in our series on Herb Alpert and The TJB! Mr. Baggins signing off for now, I'll return at 7pm Pacific with a set sure to soothe your achin' nerves and help ease us all into a good night.
Until then, be kind, babies, be kind.
Baggins out.

ELENA DEL RIVERO & CRISTINA RIVERA GARZA
Tumblr media
Las feministas
Pronunciaban la palabra. La escupían. La celebraban.
Corrían.
(Atrás de este vocablo debe oírse el pasar del viento.)
Hablaban a contrapelo. Interrumpiéndose.
Ah, tan descaradamente.
Vivían a la intemperie, que es el mismo lugar donde sentían.
Supongo que así nacieron.
No sabían de refugios, de techos, de amparos,
de patrocinios.
Estaban heridas de todo (y todo aquí quiere decir
la historia, el aire, el presente, el subjuntivo,
el contexto, la fuga).
Agnósticas más que ateas. Impactantes más
que hermosas. Vulnerables más que endebles. Vivas
más que tú. Más que yo. Estoicas más que fuertes.
Dichosas más que dichas.
Intolerantes. Sí. A veces.
¿Mencioné ya que eran brutales?
Caminaban en días de iracunda claridad como musas
de sí mismas
(eso ocurría sobre todo en el invierno cuando
los vientos del Santa Ana iban y venían
por los bulevares de Tijuana, arrastrando envolturas
de plástico y el polvo que obliga a cerrar los ojos
y negar la realidad)
a la orilla de todo, bamboleándose
eran la última gota que cuelga de la botella
(la mítica de la felicidad o la aún más mítica
que derrama el vaso o el sexo
impenetrable en la mismidad de su orificio)
y caían.
El colmo.
La epítome.
El acabose.
(Por debajo de estas frases debe olerse el tufo que deja
tras de sí el viento horizontal.)
Supongo que solo con el tiempo se volvieron así.
Con hombres o, a veces, sin ellos, besaban
labiodentalmente.
Y se mudaban de casa y se cambiaban los calcetines
y preparaban arroz.
Y bajaban las escaleras y tomaban taxis y no sentían
compasión.
Decían: Este es el viento que todo lo limpia.
Y pronunciaban la palabra. Enfáticas. Tenaces.
Prehumanas.
Tajantes. Sí. Con frecuencia.
Conmovedoras más que alucinadas. Sibilinas más
que conscientes. Subrepticias más que críticas.
Hipertextuales. Claridosas.
Estoy segura de que ya mencioné que eran brutales.
Fumaban de manera inequívoca.
Cambiaban de página con la devoción y el cuidado
minimalista de las enamoradas.
Siempre andaban enamoradas.
En los días sequísimos del Santa Ana elevaban
los rostros y se dedicaban a ver (podían pasar horas
así) esas aves que, sobre sus cabezas, remontaban
lúcidamente el antagonismo del aire.
Y el Santa Ana (y aquí debe oírse una y otra vez
la palabra) (una y otra vez) despeinaba entonces
sus vastas cabelleras ariscas. Sus cruentas pestañas
(una y otra vez).
_ Cristina Rivera Garza.
_ Elena del Rivero Letter from Home in Cerulean, 2014

Die drei ??? und die flüsternden Puppen (180)
Hörspiel von André Minninger nach der Buchvorlage von André Minninger Regie: Heikedine Körting erschienen am 04.03.2016 bei EUROPA Laufzeit: 78 Minuten Coverillustration: Silvia Christoph
Tumblr media
erzählt von Thomas Fritsch
In den Hauptrollen: Justus Jonas, Erster Detektiv: Oliver Rohrbeck Peter Shaw, Zweiter Detektiv: Jens Wawrczek Bob Andrews, Recherchen und Archiv: Andreas Fröhlich
In den Nebenrollen: Skinny Norris: Michael Hack Inspektor Cotta: Holger Mahlich
In den Gastrollen: Michael Rompa: Marios Ramos Afton: Julia Fölster Chef: Eric Schäffler Ron: Gordon Piedesack
Nach einem Probetraining im neuen Fitnessstudio, zu dem am Tag zuvor eine Einladung im Briefkasten der drei ??? steckte, findet Peter vor seinem geparkten Fahrrad einen Walkman. Er nimmt ihn mit und hört ihn mit Justus und Bob an. Das Lied "In the Middle of the Night" ist darauf, das Lieblingslied von Skinny Norris. Das Lied wird unterbrochen und man hört ein Mädchen schreien. Es klingt, als würde sie entführt werden.
Die drei ??? fragen im Fitnessstudio nach, ob der Walkman bekannt ist. Trainer Michael Rompa sagt, er gehöre Bianca und gibt den drei ihre Handynummer. Michael sagt, er habe gemeinsam mit Bianca das ganze Lied "In the Middle of the Night" angehört. Danach habe sie zurückgespult, um sich den Song nochmals anzuhören.
Die drei ??? rufen unter der Nummer an. Juan Gonzales meldet sich mit starkem spanischen Akzent, angeblich aus Tijuana, kurz hinter der mexikanischen Grenze. Er habe das Handy auf der Straße gefunden. Er gibt seinen Standort durch und legt abrupt auf.
Die drei fahren nach Tijuana. Juan Gonzales ruft sie zurück. Er lehnt ein Treffen ab, erzählt aber, dass er Bianca dabei beobachtet habe, wie ihr Handy fallengelassen hat. Danach sei sie mit einem Mann in ein Taxi eingestiegen. Gonzales habe die Adresse Cañon del Padre, 1271 verstanden.
Im Cañon del Padre, 1271 angelangt, untersuchen die drei ??? das Haus, finden aber nichts Verdächtiges. Als sie wieder losfahren wollen, springt Peters Auto nicht mehr an. Ihre Handys funktionieren nicht, da sie sich in einem Funkloch befinden. Sie beschließen, im Haus zu übernachten.
In der Nacht hört Peter eine flüsternde Stimme, die von einer Puppe kommt. Die Puppe und noch zwei weitere wurde scheinbar von Bianca besprochen mit folgender verschlüsselter Nachricht: "Die Lage hat sich plötzlich geändert, etwas ist schiefgelaufen! Bitte folgt mir, Santa Monica Motel Zimmer 10, Bianca"
Peters Auto funktioniert wieder. Die drei ??? machen sich auf den Weg nach Santa Monica und nehmen die Puppen als Beweismittel für eine Entführung mit. Ein blauer Van verfolgt sie und Justus erkennt den Fahrer als Michael Rompa. Er bittet Bob, die Batterien aus den Puppen zu nehmen. Die drei halten an einer Tankstelle, Justus steigt aus und kommt nach einer Weile mit Verpflegung und neuen Batterien wieder. Sie fahren weiter, über die Grenze.
Da die Akkus ihrer Handys leer sind, halten sie auf einem Parkplatz, um dort ein Münztelefon zu benutzen. Dort werden sie von zwei maskierten Männern aus dem blauen Van bedroht. Die drei ??? händigen die Puppen aus.
Justus klärt auf: Es gab nie eine Entführung. Michael Rompa hat mit einem Komplizen alles eingefädelt: Die Einladung zum Probetraining, der Walkman vor Peters Fahrrad, seine Stimme verstellt und als Juan Gozales die Adresse mitgeteilt, die Puppen mit der Botschaft besprochen. Das Ziel: Drogen über die Grenze zu schmuggeln. In den Batterien der Puppen sind Drogen versteckt. Justus hat auf der Tankstelle sie Batterien herausgenommen und auf der Herrentoilette versteckt.
Mithilfe eines Peilsenders, den Justus unbemerkt am blauen Van angebracht hat, folgen die drei ??? dem blauen Van bis zum Haus von Skinny Norris, der Michael Rompas Komplize ist. Dort belauschen sie, wie Skinny, Michael und seine Freundin Afton (die die Puppen besprochen hat) von zwei Drogendealern gefoltert werden, damit sie den Ort der Drogen preisgeben. Die drei gehen dazwischen und entlocken den Dealern ein Geständnis, das Justus mithilfe einer der Puppen aufzeichnet. Als wenig später Inspektor Cotta erscheint, spielt Justus die Aufzeichnung ab.

Uber and Lyft: These services offer app-based booking, real-time tracking, and a range of vehicle options. They are particularly useful for avoiding language barriers and negotiating fares. The convenience of door-to-door service and the ability to pay through the app make ridesharing a popular choice among travelers.
Private Car Services
Private car services offer a more personalized and luxurious mode of transportation. These services are ideal for those seeking comfort and convenience, especially for business travel or special occasions.
Chauffeur-Driven Cars: Chauffeur-driven cars provide a high level of comfort and professionalism. These services include experienced drivers who ensure a smooth and punctual journey. The luxury of private cars, combined with the convenience of door-to-door service, makes them a popular choice for executive travel.
Limousines: Limousines offer an upscale travel experience, ideal for special events or high-profile trips. They provide ample space and premium features, such as leather seating and advanced entertainment systems. Limousines are perfect for making a lasting impression or celebrating an occasion in style.

Understand Local Customs and Regulations
Familiarize yourself with local customs and regulations related to transportation in Tijuana. This includes understanding fare structures, tipping practices, and any specific rules that may apply to different types of transportation.
Fare Structures: Public transportation fares are typically low, and exact change may be required for bus rides. Taxis and ridesharing services generally use meters or app-based pricing, so be aware of the costs before starting your journey.
Safety and Etiquette: Exercise caution when using public transportation or hailing taxis. Opt for reputable services and avoid sharing personal information with drivers. It is also polite to tip drivers, especially in private car services and limousines.
Plan Your Routes and Schedule
Planning your routes and schedule in advance can help you navigate the city more efficiently and avoid potential delays. Use maps and transportation apps to familiarize yourself with routes and timings.
Transportation Apps: Utilize apps for public transportation and ridesharing services to check schedules, book rides, and track vehicles in real-time. These tools can help you plan your journey and stay informed about any changes.
Route Planning: Consider your destinations and travel times when planning your routes. Factor in potential traffic congestion and peak travel times, especially during busy periods or special events.
Book in Advance
For private car services, limousines, and airport shuttles, booking in advance ensures availability and can often result in better rates. Make reservations early to secure your preferred service and avoid last-minute complications.
Advance Reservations: Many private transportation services allow for online bookings or phone reservations. Confirm your booking and keep track of any confirmation details or instructions provided by the service.
Be Prepared for Language Differences
While many transportation services in Tijuana cater to English-speaking travelers, it is helpful to have a basic understanding of Spanish or carry a translation app. This can enhance communication and ensure a smoother experience.
Language Apps: Use translation apps or phrasebooks to assist with communication if needed. Being able to convey basic information or understand instructions can improve your overall experience.
Conclusion
Navigating transportation services in Tijuana offers a range of options to suit various needs and preferences. From public buses and taxis to private car services and shuttles, each mode of transportation provides distinct advantages and can enhance your travel experience. By understanding the available options, planning your routes, and booking in advance, you can ensure a smooth and enjoyable journey in and around this dynamic city. Whether you are exploring Tijuana’s vibrant neighborhoods, traveling to nearby destinations, or simply seeking a reliable way to get from point A to point B, the right transportation service will contribute to a memorable and hassle-free experience.

Gateway to Adventure: Navigating Transportation Options to Tijuana Airport
Embarking on a journey often begins with the simple yet significant task of getting to the airport. For travelers heading to Tijuana Airport, a vital hub for both domestic and international flights, understanding the various transportation options can enhance the travel experience. Tijuana, a vibrant city bordering the United States, offers multiple means of transport to the airport, each with its own advantages. This guide delves into these options, helping you choose the most suitable one for your needs.
Tumblr media
Driving to Tijuana Airport
Driving is a convenient option for many travelers, offering flexibility and control over your schedule. If you have access to a car, driving to Tijuana Airport can be straightforward. Major highways connect Tijuana to various parts of Mexico and the United States, making the airport accessible from multiple directions. It's important to familiarize yourself with the route beforehand, considering factors like traffic conditions and border crossing times if you're coming from the United States.
Parking facilities at Tijuana Airport are ample, with options ranging from short-term to long-term parking. However, it's wise to check the parking fees and availability in advance. Additionally, if you're renting a car, ensure that the rental agreement allows for cross-border travel, and be aware of insurance requirements in both countries.
Public Transportation
Public transportation is an economical and eco-friendly choice. Tijuana has an extensive network of buses that connect various parts of the city to the airport. The city's main bus terminal offers services that can take you directly to the airport or nearby areas, from where you can easily catch a taxi or shuttle.
For those traveling from the United States, the San Diego Metropolitan Transit System (MTS) provides services that get you close to the border. From there, a short walk or taxi ride will take you to the Cross Border Xpress (CBX) pedestrian bridge, a convenient passage directly into Tijuana Airport. CBX is a unique feature that allows ticketed passengers to cross the border seamlessly, significantly reducing travel time.
Taxis and Ride-Sharing Services
Taxis are a popular choice due to their convenience and speed. In Tijuana, taxis are readily available and can be hailed on the street or booked in advance. It's advisable to agree on a fare before starting your journey or ensure the meter is running to avoid any misunderstandings.
Ride-sharing services are also widely used in Tijuana and offer a modern alternative to traditional taxis. These services can be booked via smartphone apps, providing an added layer of convenience and often competitive pricing. Ride-sharing is particularly useful if you're traveling with a group or have a lot of luggage, as you can choose a vehicle that fits your needs.
Shuttle Services
Shuttle services provide a balance between the cost-effectiveness of public transport and the convenience of taxis. Various companies offer shuttle services to and from Tijuana Airport, catering to different budgets and requirements. These shuttles can be booked in advance and often provide door-to-door service, making them an excellent choice for travelers who prefer not to drive or navigate public transportation.
For cross-border travelers, there are dedicated shuttle services that operate from various locations in Southern California directly to the CBX facility. These shuttles are particularly useful for those who prefer not to deal with the hassle of parking or navigating border crossings on their own.
Cross Border Xpress (CBX)
The Cross Border Xpress is a game-changer for travelers heading to Tijuana Airport from the United States. This pedestrian bridge connects San Diego directly to Tijuana Airport, offering a streamlined crossing experience. To use CBX, you need a boarding pass for a flight departing from Tijuana Airport and a CBX ticket. The bridge is accessible from a terminal building in San Diego, where you can park your car, check in for your flight, and cross the border within minutes.
CBX is particularly advantageous because it bypasses the often congested vehicle border crossings, saving time and reducing stress. The facility is equipped with amenities such as luggage carts, duty-free shops, and comfortable waiting areas, enhancing the overall travel experience.
Conclusion
Navigating transportation to Tijuana Airport is an integral part of planning your trip. Whether you prefer the autonomy of driving, the cost-effectiveness of public transportation, the convenience of taxis and ride-sharing, the reliability of shuttle services, or the efficiency of the Cross Border Xpress, Tijuana offers a variety of choices to suit every traveler’s needs. By understanding these options and planning accordingly, you can ensure a smooth and enjoyable journey to this gateway of adventure.
