Hi all!<\/p>\n

Another weekend!! Let me start with a HAPPY EASTER!!! to you and your family. And also a big thanks to the great people who wished me \/ the Dublin Event Guide a Happy 700th Edition Anniversary last week.
\nI even got a few birthday presents (a.k.a. donations) and I thank you doubley for that! If you missed it last week ;-) I am not superstitious, I even take good wishes and presents a week later. :-D<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Sooo, the long awaited lifting of restrictions on 05 April came to…exactly NOTHING! How disappointing! And more and more it seems to cristallise that general lockdowns possibly have NO significant effect at all (more nuanced details at the bottom of this newsletter). Sigh!!<\/p>\n

The further delay of the re-opening is quite disheartening, but the biggest issue is that the announcement on Tuesday indicates that the restart of cultural life In Dublin is FAR away. Interestingly, in T\u00fcbingen, a university city in the south-west of Germany, a solution was found to open the theater, cinemas, all shops and (outdoor) cafes NOW!<\/p>\n

And this is what they are doing in T\u00fcbingen:
\nEvery morning people can come to one of 9 test stations in the city where a free Antigen Test will be done. Within 15 minutes you will be told the result and if you are negative, you will get a Day Pass that gives you full access to cultural venues and to shops and cafes for that day. And if you want to go out again tomorrow, you need another Antigen test.
\nWhile the “experts” in Ireland are still delaying the availability of Antigen tests unnecessarily, they are made available to everyone in Germany for free at test centres, or for EUR 5 for your test at home and they are clearly proven to be accurate enough.<\/p>\n

T\u00fcbingen only has 90,000 inhabitants so to achieve the same, Dublin City would probably need in the region of 30-40 test stations, but places like Galway and Cork could easily return to near-normal life with a set-up like in T\u00fcbingen and in Dublin, the Antigen tests could be done in certain areas or for certain venues. (Here are some details in German: https:\/\/www.focus.de\/perspektiven\/buerger-trotzen-der-pandemie-ticket-in-die-alte-freiheit-tuebinger-sind-stolz-auf-ihre-experimentierfreudige-stadt_id_13126852.html<\/a>)<\/p>\n

Innovative initiatives like that will get us out of the lockdown. Not the attempt of NPHET and our government in Ireland to keep us behind closed doors for good!<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

In normal times, the Easter weekend and the week after Easter is always a relatively quiet time. And the current online-times are not that much different. The weather forecast looks ok, so go outside on Sunday and Monday if you can (but wear warm clothes, because it will be COLD again!). Both Sunday and Monday will be mainly dry and sunny, but Sunday will be much better than Monday, so I will see you on my walk!? ;-)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

If you like free cultural events and enjoy the\u00a0great content in the “Dublin Event Guide (for Free Events)”, please help by donating\u00a0a small amount. (The next big project is a very much needed update of the Dublin Event Guide website to be able to offer more services.) Any amount will help, but if you are looking for a recommendation, then I would suggest a donation of 12 Euro per year. That\u2019s just one Euro per month. Where else can you get so much value for so little money?<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

I have created a brand new Dublin Event Guide Donation Page<\/a> here.\u00a0It is really easy to use and uses\u00a0Stripe’s trustworthy payment processing. In case it doesn’t work for you, the\u00a0“old” links are still below for another\u00a0little while.\u00a0On this new page, you can also choose to sign up for a yearly subscription, yearly subscriptions will give\u00a0some financial stability and reliability and would be great to have! (Look for the RED <\/span><\/strong>subscription\u00a0b<\/span>uttons at the bottom.)<\/p>\n

If\u00a0the new page above doesn’t work, just use these links and\u00a0donate via www.paypal.me\/DublinEventGuide<\/a>
\nor for Revolut users among you just use @joergbrb (Revolut is moving away from phone numbers and to addresses like this one.)<\/p>\n

If PayPal or Revolut don\u2019t work for you, you can buy one or two or even three virtual coffees (or Hot Chocolates!) for the Dublin Event Guide and you can do that on the “Buy Me a Coffee”\u00a0page here www.buymeacoffee.com\/DublinEventG<\/a><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\nAnd if you come to\u00a0www.DublinEventGuide.com<\/a>\u00a0and check out some of the ads and click on the ones that you find interesting, that also helps with a few cent!<\/p>\n

+++ One Dublin One Book 2021: Leonard and Hungry Paul by Ronan Hession<\/strong>
\nEvery year the Dublin City Libraries select a book that has a connection with Dublin either through its content or its author as the “One Dublin One Book” selection. The libraries encourage everyone to read that book and there are lots of events during April in connection with the chosen book.
\n—
\nIn 2021, the selected book is “Leonard and Hungry Paul”. Leonard and Hungry Paul are two quiet friends who see the world differently. They use humour, board games and silence to steer their way through the maelstrom that is the 21st century. The book author is Ronan Hession, an Irish writer based in Dublin and “Leonard and Hungry Paul” is his debut novel. http:\/\/www.onedublinonebook.ie\/<\/a><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

+++ Did you know? – Hugh Lane Gallery<\/strong>
\nOne of the art museums\/galleries in Dublin is called the “Hugh Lane Gallery”. It is located in a beautiful building on Parnell Square North and is the home of a lot of great art masterpieces and also of the super messy ;-) studio of artist Francis Bacon. In addition the Hugh Lane Gallery organises lots of events and the popular Sunday at Noon classic concert series.
\n—
\nMany of you have heard (or read about) the Hugh Lane Gallery, but far from everyone knows why it has this name and who Hugh Lane was. So here is a “Did you know?” about Sir Hugh Lane that I found on the Hugh Lane website.
\n—
\nWhen Hugh Lane (born County Cork, 1875) perished on the [sinking British ocean liner] Lusitania on 7 May 1915, it emerged that he had bequeathed his collection of 39 modern paintings \u2013 including works by Renoir, Manet, Mancini, Monet, Morisot, Pissarro, Vuillard and Degas – to the National Gallery, London.
\n—
\nBut soon after his death, a codicil to the will [an addition or supplement that explains, modifies, or revokes a will or part of one] was found in Lane’s desk at the National Gallery of Ireland where he was Director, leaving the pictures to Ireland instead. They were to form the core of the Municipal Gallery of Modern Art which Sir Hugh had established in Dublin in 1908, known today as the Hugh Lane Gallery.
\n—
\nThe codicil was signed but not witnessed and therefore legally invalid, consequently the National Gallery became the owner of the works.
\n—
\nIn the late 1950s, Sir Denis Mahon (1910\u20132011) – a National Gallery Trustee of Irish descent – undertook to find a compromise where the two institutions would share access to the paintings. The first agreement was reached in 1959 and implemented in the early 1960s whereby the paintings were divided in two groups and alternated between the two institutions until 1979.
\nhttp:\/\/www.hughlane.ie\/news\/3139-lane-bequest-announcement<\/a>
\nThis sharing of the paintings continues to this day and only this year a new 10 year agreement was signed.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\nFor physical books and e-books I recommend Book Depository because they are usually cheaper than others and they always include delivery for free and by using this link you help the Dublin Event Guide when you purchase a book and it doesn’t cost you a cent: https:\/\/shor.by\/BookDepository<\/a>\u00a0 .<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

+++ Lockdowns probably don’t work!<\/strong>
\nDuring the week I found and read a really interesting book. It is called “Covid: Why most of what you know is wrong” by Swedish Medical Doctor Sebastian Rushworth. The book is available in the Kindle Unlimited Programme or as a Paperback on Amazon here https:\/\/amzn.to\/3ujx7Br<\/a>
\nRushworth explains first what happened in Sweden, then provides a lot of detail about the statistics and methods of calculation and about the science behind what we are told in this pandemic and all the time explains why we are fed wrong information. It\u00a0is a REALLY interesting book that I would recommend to everyone who keeps reading news about what is happening for the last 12 months.
\n—
\nOne of the suggestions he is explaining is that lockdowns do not help to reach the main target and that governments and “experts” are actually focusing on the wrong target. The right target is to avoid deaths, not to avoid infections! Infections will happen and infections in healthy people are no big problem. The obsession with number of infected people is completely distracting from the main target and gets governments to do stupid things, like total lockdowns that are not substantially helping to reduce the number of deaths.
\n—<\/p>\n

But this is only one aspect of the book. There is a lot more in it and if you check out the description on the Amazon Page (https:\/\/amzn.to\/3ujx7Br<\/a>) you will get the full picture. Importantly, Rushworth does NOT subscribe to any conspiracy theories, but explains every one of his points with publicly available scientific research.
\n—
\nDefinitely worth a read if you don’t want to be lied to and especially if you have a Kindle Unlimited plan do NOT hesitate and check the book out as soon as possible!<\/p>\n
