Mayan Deer Dance on New Phone Book Cover

Mayan Deer Dance on New Phone Book Cover | Cayo Scoop!  The Ecology of Cayo Culture | Scoop.it

When was the last time you used a phone book?  BTL has a nice looking one for this year.  Since most people will never see it, Ambergris Today posted a picture of it.  

 

"This year’s cover gives a rare look into the vibrant and mysterious Maya Deer Dance.  This spiritual dance, although ancient, tells a tale that is important to societies, even today, as it focuses a great deal on the significant relationship between humanity and nature . This dance is sacred and is performed only on special occasions mostly by the Q’eqchi Maya."

Telemedia and Belize Electricity Limited: the economics of nationalisation

This is a pretty good article on the nationalization of utilities: "Does borrowing all this money and paying all this interest constitute a more efficient allocation of scarce resources? Does nationalisation bring a net benefit to the government and people of Belize? For the answer to be affirmative, the value gain of the shift in power and control from private hands to the government must be more than $3 million per month, or more than $35 million per year. This is not the gross dividends that the government gets from these utilities annually, but rather the increase in profits – and ultimately dividends – caused by the shift in power and control over and above the future expected profits of the former private owners at the time of acquisition."

BTL has a video out about the new 2013 Telephone Directory.  This year, they teamed up with the Belize Tourism Board, and they came up with a new style that focuses on Belizean food and culture.  Well done, BTL, well done.
