<div dir="ltr">Hi Bill, Hi everybody，<div><br></div><div>Sorry for slow response in this week. Glad to hear that you all are ready for the upcoming travel.</div><div><br></div><div>Today, I also received hotel information from Joseph, along with my flight arrangements.</div><div><br></div><div><span style="color:rgb(68, 68, 68);font-family:'Microsoft YaHei UI', 'Microsoft YaHei', 宋体, Calibri, sans-serif;font-size:15px;line-height:21.299999237060547px;background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255);"> I may depart from Beijing at 1:20 am, 11th, Jan</span><span style="line-height:22.719999313354492px;color:rgb(68, 68, 68);font-family:'Microsoft YaHei UI', 'Microsoft YaHei', 宋体, Calibri, sans-serif;font-size:12pt;background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255);">, first to Doha and then to Washington, DC (IAD), arriving at 14:50, 11th, Jan, EST.

I could have been able to get my visa on 7th, Jan.</span></div><div><span style="font-size:12pt;"><br></span></div><div>Most lately, just minutes ago, I have checked my visa status on the US Embassy website, it is "ISSUED" by the US Embassy. Because the US Embassy does not accept external telephone calls， I have written to the US Embassy to hopefully request Emergent Visa Delivery and Pickup. I request to get my visa today (8th, Jan), but the US Embassy does not reply.</div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size:12pt;">Now I am under very emergent circumstances. The key is whether the US Embassy could deliver the visa to my designated location by 17:00 of 9th, Jan. </span><span style="font-size:12pt;">If that is okay, I could pick up my visa at the earliest time. </span></div><div><span style="font-size:12pt;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-size:12pt;">I will be persistent and keep you guys informed.</span></div><div><span style="font-size:12pt;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-size:12pt;">Looking forward to seeing you in DC.</span></div><div><span style="font-size:12pt;"><br></span></div><div>Best Regards</div><div>Peter</div><div><br><div><hr id="ecxstopSpelling">From: caribe@entropia.blog.br<br>Date: Wed, 7 Jan 2015 18:25:30 -0200<br>To: ggithaiga@hotmail.com<br>CC: william.drake@uzh.ch; ncuc-ec@lists.ncuc.org<br>Subject: Re: [NCUC-EC] DC meetings<br><br><div>Confirmation from Constituency Travel just arrived, the hotel is Beacon. </div><div>See u there.</div><div><br><div>_</div>João Carlos Caribé<div><div>(21) 8761 1967<br><div>Enviado via iPad</div></div></div></div><div><br>Em 07/01/2015, às 16:54, Joao Carlos Caribe <<a href="mailto:caribe@entropia.blog.br">caribe@entropia.blog.br</a>> escreveu:<br><br></div><blockquote><div><div>Thanks, </div><div>I'll follow you assuming that we will stay at the Beacon. <br><br><div>_</div>João Carlos Caribé<div><div>(21) 8761 1967<br><div>Enviado via iPad</div></div></div></div><div><br>Em 07/01/2015, às 08:06, Grace Githaiga <<a href="mailto:ggithaiga@hotmail.com">ggithaiga@hotmail.com</a>> escreveu:<br><br></div><blockquote><div>

Attached is the last version of the NCPH meeting agenda that was circulated. I was on a plane during the last planning call and haven’t heard that things have evolved beyond what’s written here, with the exception that I guess (per the conversation on the NCSG PC list) we will propose the global public interest for Slot J. <br><div><br></div><div>2. Could people please indicate what time Sunday they arrive? If the four of you who are coming will arrive in time we could do a dinner + brief meeting Sunday night, which would be a lot more fun and conducive to conversation than a breakfast meeting Monday. I can make a booking or we can just wander in Dupont Circle, lot of choices.</div><div><br></div><div>3. The Wednesday meeting is 10am - noon at CDT, 1634 I Street NW #1100. Unfortunately the notice is short and the timing conflicts with other meetings e.g. at the State Dept, so I don’t know how big a group of locals we might be able to pull in, but as long as we have at least ten plus our side it’s worth doing. Please feel free to reach out to any local contacts of relevance and encourage them to attend (and notify me if so). </div><div><br></div><div>4. Due to itineraries / availabilities etc. I ended up with a booking arriving Saturday night, which is not exactly how I wanted to spend my birthday but whatever. At least I might be semi-coherent by Monday morning. ICANN says it cannot cover an early extra night of hotel as per Tuesday, so I would like to formally request that we do so from the NCUC piggybank. Constituency Travel hasn’t responded to several pings as to what hotel I’m in but others have said we’re at the Beacon, so I imagine it’ll be in the $200-300 range.</div><div><br></div><div>Ok…time to get back into the ICANNsphere…four hours of conference calls tomorrow, while grading exams, sigh...</div><div><br></div><div>See you soon,</div><div><br></div><div>Bill<br>
