The chocolate hour on 6th of
February was a great suc-
cess. It was hosted in cultural
house Mj and there was
chocolate from 19 countries
to taste and also two boxes
of chocolates that turned out
internaonal. There were
also to chocolate cakes pre-
pared from th e Hodina H
team.
The SMOK intercultural evenings gave an opportuni-
ty for our volunteers to show us what is unique for
them about their countries and for the people from
Pelhrimov to nd out more about the world.
12th of February: This was the rst of the evenings
with UK, France and Spain presenng their countries.
They are big and well known but that was the point.
They are very dierent in the parts that are far from
each other so we found out more about what applies
to most of the country and was is just popular just in
one region not the whole of the country.
18th of February: Georgia and Moldova. We found
out more about the former Soviet Union republics
music, food, dances, places to visit and enjoy.
19th of February: Armenia and Belarus. Last but not
least again we gained more knowledge about the notso well known countries and had the opportunity to
taste a bit of their culture in the last of the SMOK
evenings for this month.
For the past one month here in Ho14 more people, or rather I should

In the paradox
ofAchillesand theTortoise,
Achilles is in a footrace with
the tortoise. Achilles allows
the tortoise ahead startof
100 meters, for example. If
we suppose that each racer
starts running at some con-
stant speed (one very fast
and one very slow), then
aer some niteme, Achil-
les will have run 100 meters,
bringing him to the tor-
toise's starng point. During
this me, the tortoise has
run a much shorter distance,
say, 10 meters. It will then
take Achilles some further
me to run that distance, by
which me the tortoise will
have advanced farther; and
then more me sll to reach
this third point, while the
tortoise moves ahead. Thus,
whenever Achilles reaches
somewhere the tortoise has
been, he sll has farther to
go.
Therefore, because there
are an innite number of
points Achilles must reach
where the tortoise has al-
ready been, he can never
overtake the tortoise
