Valve Grinding Oil. A pet peeve of mine is using transmission oil in your valve refacer instead of valve grinding oil. You should not use transmission oil to grind valves. Yes it is an oil, and yes, it is cheap. However, transmission oil will actually attack the bond that holds the grains together, decreasing the life of your abrasive dramatically.

Vitamin Supplements for Dry Eyes
Dry eye syndrome occurs when your eyes don’t produce enough tears, or the tears are of poor quality. It can cause burning, stinging, and irritation in your eyes.
Fortunately, there are several ways to manage your dry eye symptoms, like consuming vitamin supplements.
While research on supplements for dry eyes is still evolving, studies indicate that some vitamins may help prevent and relieve dry eye symptoms.
Vitamin Supplements For Dry Eye Prevention
While eating a nutritious diet contributes to good eye health, it’s not always easy to get all the nutrients you need from meals at the dinner table. If you’ve been diagnosed with dry eye syndrome, you may want to consider taking vitamin supplements to alleviate dry eye symptoms.
Vitamin A helps protect the surface of the eye by being an effective barrier to bacteria and viruses, reducing the risk of eye infections. Vitamin A deficiency, which occurs mainly among disadvantaged groups, is primarily caused by food deprivation. In some areas of the world, up to 50% of preschool children don’t get enough of this essential vitamin.
Vitamin A deficiency can increase your chances of developing dry eye disease. By consuming foods rich in vitamin A, like carrots, spinach, tomatoes and other orange and yellow fruits and vegetables, you can help prevent dry eye. Eye drops containing vitamin A can also be an effective treatment for dry eyes.
Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that helps the body absorb calcium and phosphorus. It can be triggered by the sun (when exposed to the sun, your skin produces vitamin D) and is found in supplements and certain foods.
Vitamin D deficiency can cause dry eye symptoms since it’s associated with poor tear quality and tear film dysfunction. According to a study published in the Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, vitamin D supplements may help reduce inflammation of the eye’s surface.
Research has also shown vitamin D supplementation to boost the effectiveness of lubricating eye drops, while oral vitamin D supplements increased tear quality and reduced dry eye symptoms.
According to a 2019 study, conducted by the University of Melbourne, omega 3 fatty acids have been shown to significantly reduce inflammation which may alleviate dry eye symptoms, like irritation and pain. Because omega 3 reduces the inflammatory response of the body, this ensures that meibomian glands in the eyelids secret oil into the tears, which, in turn, prevents the tears from evaporating too quickly.
Fish, leafy vegetables, vegetable oil, soybeans, nuts, and seeds are excellent sources of omega 3. Fish oil and flaxseed oil supplements also contain high doses of this fatty acid.
Links between vitamins and minerals and dry eyes are becoming increasingly apparent as more studies are conducted. However, further research is needed to fully understand the mechanisms and establish the optimum treatments to benefit people with dry eyes.
Do you or someone you love suffer from dry eye syndrome? Contact 20/20 Vision Associates Optometry to consult with an eye doctor who will be happy to advise on the potential benefits of consuming vitamin supplements and increasing certain foods in your diet.
20/20 Vision Associates Optometry is pleased to offer lasting and effective dry eye treatments so that you can enjoy eye and vision comfort for a more enjoyable quality of life.20/20 Vision Associates Optometry serves patients from Riverside, Fontana, Corona, and Ontario, all throughout California.

The journey of aluminum from its raw state to a refined finish is a fascinating process that involves precision, expertise, and craftsmanship. In this exploration, we unravel the intricate steps involved in Aluminum Mill Finishing, shedding light on the transformation that takes place from the factory to the final finish.
The Raw Canvas: Aluminum in Its Natural State
Extraction and Alloying
The journey begins with the extraction of aluminum from bauxite ore. The raw material is then alloyed to enhance its properties, ensuring it meets the desired specifications for various applications. Alloying allows manufacturers to customize the aluminum to achieve specific characteristics, such as strength, durability, and corrosion resistance.
Casting and Rolling
Once alloyed, the molten aluminum is cast into large ingots. These ingots are then processed through rolling mills, where they are gradually reduced in thickness to form coils of aluminum. This rolling process not only shapes the material but also refines its structure, preparing it for the next stages of the finishing journey.
The Art of Mill Finishing: Techniques and Transformations
Surface Cleaning and Pre-Treatment
Before the 1050 aluminum undergoes finishing, it must be thoroughly cleaned to remove any impurities or contaminants. The surface is meticulously prepared through a series of cleaning and pre-treatment steps, ensuring that the finishing process adheres seamlessly to the material.
Mechanical finishing involves the use of abrasives to create a uniform and textured surface on the aluminum. This step can range from brushing to sanding, depending on the desired finish. The mechanical finishing process not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also prepares the surface for subsequent treatments.
Anodizing or Coating
Anodizing is a common method used in Aluminum Mill Finishing to create a protective oxide layer on the surface. This layer not only enhances corrosion resistance but also provides a base for color applications. Alternatively, aluminum can be coated with various finishes, including paints or powder coatings, to achieve specific visual effects and additional protection.
Precision and Quality Control
Inspection and Quality Assurance
At each stage of the Aluminum Mill Finishing process, rigorous inspection and quality control measures are implemented. This ensures that the finished aluminum meets industry standards and client specifications. Quality checks may include assessments of thickness, color consistency, adhesion, and overall surface quality.
Precision Cutting and Shaping
Once the finishing process is complete, the aluminum is precision-cut and shaped according to the requirements of the final product. Whether destined for architectural cladding, automotive components, or consumer goods, the precision in cutting and shaping is crucial to achieving the intended design and functionality.
Applications Across Industries: From Architecture to Consumer Goods
Aluminum Mill Finishing finds widespread use in architectural applications. The finished aluminum can be employed in facades, roofing, and interior design elements, contributing to the sleek and modern aesthetic of contemporary buildings.
In the automotive industry, Aluminum Mill Finishing plays a vital role in creating lightweight yet durable components. From body panels to interior trim, the finished aluminum adds a touch of sophistication to modern vehicles while meeting stringent performance standards.
Conclusion: The Artistry of Aluminum Mill Finishing
From its humble beginnings in the factory to the refined finish that graces our buildings and products, Aluminum Mill Finishing is a testament to the artistry and precision involved in material transformation. The meticulous steps of cleaning, shaping, and finishing result in a versatile material that not only dazzles with its aesthetic appeal but also stands the test of time. As we marvel at the architectural wonders and consumer goods around us, it’s worth appreciating the craftsmanship embedded in the journey from factory to finish in the world of Aluminum Mill Finishing.

VIDEO: Jay-Z, "Roc Boys (The Winner Is)"
Jay-Z’s new album shares its title with the new Ridley Scott film about Harlem drug kingpin Frank Lucas. It even has an “Original Motion Picture Soundtrack” seal of approval. Beyond that, the film and the album have little in common.
The film is a morally complex rumination on corruption and sin — a shoo-in for Academy Award nominations. The CD is a transparent attempt by Jay-Z to reposition himself as a hip-hop outlaw by rehashing his gangsta past. And though it’s clearly a reaction to the lukewarm reception 2006’s Kingdom Come received, it’s likely to encourage just as many calls for his (permanent) retirement. Sure, Jay’s American Gangster gives Lucas a few shout-outs, and there are places where it makes reference to the film, but the disc is mostly about Jay-Z — the younger, less-upstanding Jay-Z, born Shawn Carter, who captured the hip-hop zeitgeist 11 years ago with the street tales of Reasonable Doubt.
Jay-Z got involved with American Gangster in the hope of bouncing back from Kingdom Come. The beats on that album were lackluster, but the main problem his fans had with it were linked to the persona Jay exhibited, as he eschewed Super Fly to become a kind of rapping Donald Trump, favoring the Dow over dope. “I got the right stock, I got stockbrokers that’s moving it like white tops,” he rapped on “30 Something.” He even committed hip-hop blasphemy by voicing his distaste for rims.
Give Kingdom Come points for honesty: Jay was rapping about the world he’d come to know as a music-biz titan who’d risen to become CEO of Def Jam. All the same, it sold less than any other Jay-Z album. So in the interest of jump-starting sales, Jay has changed personas again, trading his seat in the boardroom for an ’80s-era street corner in the ’hood.
“First of all I want to thank my connect,” he raps on “Roc Boys (And the Winner Is),” the album’s centerpiece. “The most important person with all due respect/Thanks to the duffle bag, the brown paper bag/The Nike shoe box for holding all this cash/Boys in blue who put greed before the badge.” It’s a contrived conversion — an all-too-blatant attempt to resurrect the hunger of Reasonable Doubt, even though the film’s subject offers a plausible excuse for his shift back to street tales. “C’mon, I got that ignorant shit you need,” he raps in “Ignorant Shit” (a track featuring Beanie Sigel, the Philly rapper who was beating an attempted murder charge while Jay-Z was climbing the corporate ladder), “Nigga, fuck, shit, ass, bitch, trick plus weed/I’m only trying to give you what you want.”
Jay got involved in the film after an advance screening, which is said to have inspired him to write a flurry of songs, many based on scenes in the movie. Or perhaps his real inspiration was the opportunity to tie his new album into a big-budget blockbuster. Whichever, he doesn’t appear to have paid much attention to the subtleties of the film’s plot or the complexity of its message. For one thing, comparing his relatively modest career as a drug dealer to the multi-million-dollar international operation that Frank Lucas lorded over is a major stretch. More important, the bravado of Jay’s American Gangster stands in contrast to the ominous tone of the film. In particular, Denzel Washington’s portrayal of Lucas has a depth that Jay-Z can’t touch. The Lucas of American Gangster was anything but a good-time guy. He doesn’t wantonly seduce women, he frowns on flashy dress, and, in one of the film’s more revealing scenes, he frets over the bloodstains in an expensive alpaca rug after shooting a partygoer in front of hundreds of witnesses.

Jan. 24, 2013 — The April 15 tax deadline is still a few months away, but there are several tax-related deadlines on Thursday, Jan. 31. The end of the month marks cutoffs for property listings or extensions, property tax exemptions, and applications for present use and wildlife conservation deferments.
North Carolina requires individuals and businesses owning personal property on Jan. 1 of each year to list property subject to taxation. Tax listings for personal property include unlicensed motor vehicles, watercraft, farm machinery, mobile homes not listed as real property and aircraft. Tax listings for business personal property include equipment, supplies, materials, machinery, farm equipment and leasehold improvements.
Individual and business property owners may complete a Listing Extension Request Form in writing or online and show good cause for the extension. Requests received after Jan. 31 will be denied.
Property tax exemptions
North Carolina General Statutes allow certain types of property to be exempt from taxes if they meet specified requirements. This includes, but is not limited to, property used for religious, burial, educational, scientific, literary and charitable purposes.
To apply for an exemption, residents must file an application with the revaluation department by Jan. 31.
Present use and wildlife conservation deferment applications are also due on Jan. 31.
Present use refers to property tax deferral for qualifying property involved in agricultural, horticultural or forestry management. The owner must also meet ownership, acreage, income and sound management requirements.
Wildlife conservation applies to land of at least 20 acres and no more than 100 acres in any one county. Owners must manage the land under a written Wildlife Habitat Conservation Agreement with the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission. The owner must also meet ownership, acreage, income and sound management requirements.
For complete information about tax listings, exemptions or deferments, visit the Cabarrus County Tax Administration office
online or in person at the Cabarrus County Governmental Center, 65 Church Street SE, Concord.

I'm currently a Ph.D. student in philosophy (ethics). Is there anything I can do in my studies to prepare for this kind of career? Can this sort of work be done remotely or mostly in offices in major cities?
Some questions that come to mind:
1-- Are women who wish to speak during events given equal (de facto) opportunity to speak? (Of course they are given equal formal opportunity, but as I saw in my postgrad program, group sessions that favour more typically 'masculine' ways of engaging in dialogue-- favouring assertiveness and competitiveness-- would tend to leave the women in my program alienated).
2-- Could the gender difference in jobs and education and its relation to the sorts of activities EA emphasises play a part?
3-- Do women feel uncomfortable at events for any other reason? If they did, would it be in such a way that they could or would report it on a survey?
4-- Would the amount of women in leadership positions alter this?
5-- Have similar surveys been conducted with people of different races and ethnic backgrounds?

Honorable Joseph J. Farnan, Jr.
Re: United States v. Federation of Physicians and Dentists, 98-CV-475
Dear Judge Farnan:
This letter responds to the Federation's letter brief, dated April 29, 1999, in which the Federation claims to have obtained "newly discovered evidence" relevant to this Court's determination of the United States' pending motions to compel heard on April 20, 1999. The allegedly "critical information," filed under seal, is purported to be evidence of the Government's "collusion" with Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Delaware (Blue Cross), which the Federation claims is the real party in interest in this case. Besides supposedly indicating an "unholy alliance," the Federation claims that the document proves that the Government was serving as Blue Cross's "puppet" when it propounded the document requests at issue. In addition, the Federation accuses the United States of being dilatory in its document production, which it claims led to the late discovery of the sealed information.
For the reasons stated below, the United States respectfully submits that the "newly discovered evidence" provides no support whatever for defendant's accusations.(1) More important, the Federation conveniently side-steps the central issue before this Court by utterly failing to explain why the information sought by the United States in its motion is irrelevant both to the existence of the alleged conspiracy and to rebuttal of the Federation's purported affirmative defenses. In fact, despite the Federation's innuendo and insinuation, the sealed information actually underscores the merit of the Government's pending motion to compel.
The sealed document, a copy of which is attached, is an e-mail from Paul King, Jr., then Senior Vice President of Provider Relations and Contracting for Blue Cross, to other Blue Cross employees, reporting on his February 6, 1998, telephone conversation with
Shortly thereafter, the Government opened an investigation in Delaware, and upon uncovering substantial evidence of a price-fixing and boycott conspiracy among the Federation and nearly all Delaware orthopedic surgeons, the Government filed this action six months later. That action was filed pursuant to Section 4 of the Sherman Act, 15 U.S.C. § 4, by the Department of Justice to halt the Federation's illegal activities -- activities that had the immediate impact of threatening consumer welfare-- and to enjoin, among other things, the Federation from collectively bargaining on behalf of its members.
As the Government has already stated in response to a question by the Court at oral argument, Blue Cross was the chief complainant that pointed out the Federation's boycott and led to the Government's investigation. As the principal, immediate target of the boycott, such complaints by the victim are hardly surprising. The Government acted quickly upon Blue Cross's complaint because of the urgency of the matter -- the imminent disruption of patient care that the group boycott threatened in February 1998. By then, virtually all Delaware orthopedic doctors had sent termination notices to Blue Cross through the Federation, and none was willing to negotiate with Blue Cross except through the Federation's Executive Director, Jack Seddon. Blue Cross patients' access to care was placed in serious jeopardy and the patients' risk of being balanced billed for high, non-contractual fees was immediate.
Rather than lend the slightest support to the Federation's allegations, Mr. King's e-mail, in fact, lends further support to the allegations of the Complaint.
the document offers not one iota of evidence that Blue Cross had any influence over any official of the Department of Justice, let alone the Attorney General and her subordinates, who made the ultimate decision to bring this action.
This document, in fact, evidences no more than what is true in virtually every investigation in which the Antitrust Division is involved: some persons or entities complain because allegedly illegal actions are taken to their economic detriment. It is the Government's duty to investigate those complaints, determine if there is merit to them and a sufficient threat to consumer interests to warrant litigation by the United States. Thus, in every case the Government litigates, every defendant can, and often does, claim the Government is a "stalking horse" for some private person or company. The fact of the matter is, however, that such a claim is as untrue as it is totally irrelevant. There is not the slightest evidence that the Government brought this action for any reason but one: to protect consumers of the Federation physicians' services. The Government's investigation has already served the interests of consumers by breaking up the Federation's boycott; the remaining question at issue here is whether defendant should be permanently enjoined from continuing or renewing its illegal combination of independent physicians. Who brought the illegal acts to the Government's attention is completely beside the point. The Federation's attempt to vilify the Government in order to obscure its indefensible opposition to the pending motions to compel, as well as the merits of this action, is not only a red herring but a waste of this Court's time.
The United States, therefore, respectfully requests that this Court order the Federation and the practice groups to comply promptly with the discovery requests at issue, as modified by the United States.

1. The Federation insinuates that the document should have been produced in October, 1998, and was withheld unduly to keep its contents unknown to defendant. The truth is that the document was produced in due course after entry of the protective order on March 3, 1998.

My husband Mark was arrested in Crete, Greece, on September 16, 2010 and has been languishing in prison ever since.
Mark and his younger brother Andreas spent 16 months in pre-trial detention before being convicted, in January 2012, of being a member of and armed gang that committed seven armed robberies of jewellers in Crete during the summer of 2010.
Both brothers were sentenced to 18 years in prison. Since the day of my husband’’s arrest, the case against him has been riddled by inconsistencies and just plain illogical accusations that are completely unsupported by any evidence.
Mark’s defence included social welfare records, wage slips, legal affidavits, flight tickets and passport stamps from Ireland, all of which proved irrefutably that he was in Ireland when they said crimes took place.
The prosecutor claimed the Irish documents were falsified, a claim accepted by the judge without investigation.
The fact that Irish state and legal documents such as social welfare sign-on sheets and legal affidavits can summarily be dismissed as forgeries in a Greek Court of law should excite the interest of the Department of Foreign Affairs and Department of Social Protection.
We are asking the Irish Department of Foreign Affairs to authenticate the documentation and to strongly express our concerns, as an Irish family, regarding the violation of my husband’s human rights, to the Greek Government and the European Parliament.
Thanks Miriam Cotton and Julie Marku

Mookie Betts tried to tell us. The Los Angeles Dodgers superstar was the second man to enter the 2023 Home Run Derby, but he didn’t do so willingly: It was his wife who goaded him into it, while Betts maintained that he never had interest in the event.
It showed during his first round on Monday night. Betts peppered the left-center gap with line drives, but he struggled to elevate, only putting up 11 homers during his three minutes of regulation time. In the break prior to his 30 seconds of bonus time, teammate — and former Derby contestant — J.D. Martinez tried to give Mookie some advice ... but only seemed to make things worse:
JD Martinez: "He's gotta hit it in the air to left"— Jomboy Media (@JomboyMedia) July 11, 2023
Mookie: "I DON'T KNOW HOW" pic.twitter.com/6I4rF0qfnM
Upon Martinez informing Betts that he just needed to pull the ball in the air more, the microphone caught the two-time MVP shouting “I don’t know how!” Alas, Betts is simply too good at actual baseball to debase himself by selling out for homers.
Betts’ stay in the Derby was a short one, as he fell well short of opponent Vladimir Guerrero Jr.’s 26. But don’t worry, Mookie: You can get back to raking in games that count soon enough.

Faulty Speedo's & ABs
Took the bike in to get the last 2 recalls or whatever they are called fixed. That was done but when I went to pick it up they noticed that the ABS was not working and the light didnt come on.
Left the bike and went back to pick it up today and they found the problem, they put the wrong speedo on the bike. Apparently if your bike has ABS brakes you their is a slight difference between speedos. Anyway now have my original speedo back on ( with the cap in the centre ) and will hopefully get a replacement put on next week.
What happened with me was when I went into see them about the faulty speedo for the 4th time they noticed one new speedo had come in and put that on to satisfy me.
I have done over 1300 k's with the new speedo and didnt even realise that ABS didnt work or that the ABS light didnt light when starting the bike.....
So atm, its back to square one.........
its true, the older you get the crankier you get

Christianity and European-style monarchy - the cross and the scepter - were introduced to Scandinavia in the tenth century, a development that was to have profound implications for all of Europe. Cross and Scepter is a concise history of the Scandinavian kingdoms from the age of the Vikings to the Reformation, written by Scandinavia's leading medieval historian. Sverre Bagge shows how the rise of the three kingdoms not only changed the face of Scandinavia, but also helped make the territorial state the standard political unit in Western Europe. He describes Scandinavia's momentous conversion to Christianity and the creation of church and monarchy there, and traces how these events transformed Scandinavian law and justice, military and administrative organization, social structure, political culture, and the division of power among the king, aristocracy, and common people.
Bagge sheds important new light on the reception of Christianity and European learning in Scandinavia, and on Scandinavian history writing, philosophy, political thought, and courtly culture. He looks at the reception of European impulses and their adaptation to Scandinavian conditions, and examines the relationship of the three kingdoms to each other and the rest of Europe, paying special attention to the inter-Scandinavian unions and their consequences for the concept of government and the division of power.
Cross and Scepter provides an essential introduction to Scandinavian medieval history for scholars and general readers alike, offering vital new insights into state formation and cultural change in Europe.
This book demonstrates the mastery Sverre Bagge has acquired through his immense and innovative work on state formation in Scandinavia. It will have enduring effects on future discussions because it is as peerless at describing and analyzing micro-processes as at integrating and comparing macro-processes from other parts of Europe.
University of Munster
A tour de force. Cross and Scepter is a short, readable, and deeply learned introduction to the political and constitutional history of Scandinavia, written by Scandinavia's foremost medieval historian. No one else but Bagge could have achieved this with such apparent ease.
A masterful survey of Scandinavian history in the Middle Ages. Bagge's writing has focus and drive without unduly skating over important details. The scholarship is superb, as one would expect from the leading Scandinavian medieval historian of his generation.

The Power Ministry has reiterated that the proposed waiver of customs duty on LNG would cover all imports,and not just the new cargoes as mandated by a Group of Ministers more than two years ago.
Based on correspondence with the Revenue Department on GoM recommendations,and in view of the prevailing scenario in the natural gas sector,it has been decided that GoM may be approached to consider waiver of customs duty on the entire LNG import and not only on incremental import, said the ministry while forwarding its proposal for the GoM. In July 2006,the GoM had recommended that the proposal for customs duty waiver be considered only for cargoes beyond the LNG being imported at this juncture. It had asked the Revenue Department and Power Ministry to ascertain the revenue impact of such an exemption and seek GoMs consent before seeking a Cabinet approval.
Petronet LNG Ltd and Hazira LNG Ltd would be the biggest beneficiaries of this proposal as PLL has been importing 5 million tonnes of LNG on term basis from Qatar since 2003. PLL has also been picking up spot cargoes,which is the sole means of Hazira LNG. The two picked up more than three million tonnes of spot cargoes last year.
The ministry says that the umbrella exemption was necessary as Petronets special privilege price linked to crude oil price of $20 a barrel for term imports got over last December. From January 2009,the Petronet LNG price would get substantially costlier because of its linkage with crude prices. In order to improve the affordability and competitiveness of Re-gasified LNG based power generation,the entire RLNG (both existing and future) used for power generation should be considered for waiver of customs duty as otherwise it would have a negative impact on use of this fuel for generation, says the note for the GoM. This would also ward off the differential treatment on customs duty for the same category of customers, it adds. The GoM is likely to meet shortly to discuss the proposal that is aimed at resolving the gas shortage faced by power plants in the country.
Coupled with education cess of 3 per cent over and above the customs duty of 5 per cent,the net impact of the exemption would be 5.15 per cent. This would bring down the landed price of LNG cargos by as much as 50 cents per million British thermal unit (at LNG prices of $5-8 per mBtu) and fuel cost of power generation by nearly 20 paise per unit.

DURATION: 2 DAYS
Vinales, in the province of Pinar Del Rio, is located three and a half hours West of Havana. It's a rainforest town in the valley floor, home to distinctive rock formations know as 'mogotes' only a few of which exist on the planet. The valleys climate and soil lends itself to the growth of tabacco with the area renowned for farming and cigar manufacturing.
The best way to see Vinales is by one of the many tours of the area, highlights for us included:
Just outside Los Jasminez is Casa Verde boasting quite the view of the valley and the local wildlife (a frog jumping on the table next to us!). El Olivio on the main street provides a comprehensive menu and is a popular alternative.
Cayo Juitas stole the show for us - being the closest to paradise I have come. A two hour drive out of town, the calm waters of an untouched remote beach comes with a bar so you can drink your Cuba Libre while sat in the warm Caribbean waters.
Your biggest accommodation decision will be wether or not to stay at Los Jasminez, the hotel with the famous view of the Vinales Mogotes (above) - we would recommend one night in the hotel.
A more economical/comfortable accommodation can be found in the valley floor at Casa Bernardo y Belkis, a charming location with a roof top swing looking out at the mogotes.
Public transport in Cuba is reserved for locals only, the Viazul is a bus service exclusively for tourists, which we recommend getting tickets the day before. Alternatives in Vinales are hiring a local or taxi driver, as was the case for our trip to Cayo Juitas. We negotiated $60 for round trip including waiting while at the beach. It was an experience in its own right, dodging chickens and other wildlife and providing an insight to rural Cuban life.
Be sure to bring insect reppellant, Mosquitos were quite previlant and aggressive, especially in the mountains and in the valley. A Mosquito net is a worth while investment even in the low season.
Also in Cuba:
