Where can I get one?
100 million older women in China use square dancing as a way to socialize and exercise.
People have long complained about the dancing grandmas' loud music, leading to noise pollution fines.
Now, a speaker-silencing device that looks like a flashlight is being used to disrupt the gatherings.

I bet many expats will buy one
There is a God!
Yes, there must be a God.
I got a call today from a lady that sounded a bit older and immediately asked me intimate questions like: what nationality i was from, how old i am and where i live etc. I claimed i am from Palestine and am 19 years old and have a knack for khmer language. I asked her where she got my phone no. from and she lied in reply that she got it from the :Yellow Pages (i think they stopped printing them 20 years ago) so i must have had a business of sorts she kept going on. Than she came to the point:
Did i ever hear about Jehovas Witness ? I replied of course, i met them everywhere " Nice people with Name Badgets and shiny brochures in many languages spreading the Gospel worldwide. God even has a website: jw.org . She was happy to hear that which cut the conversation much shorter than she must have planned. I cut the rest short and replied that i am a converted Christian / Protestant from Palestine who finally found faith in Buddhism which claims not to worship a God but follows Sidharta Gautama (the original Buddha from now Nepal) that found wisdom and ........................... deciples while thinking about the World, Life on Earth and Mankind's place in it. I continued to say that this Philosophy (not religion) makes a lot more sense to me that the imaginary God that doesn't exist. In Buddhism "everything is coming and going". Spot ON.
I'm glad i found Buddhism which does not have a God so i can stay Atheist.

Phone numbers get reused so she may well have got your number from yellow pages - they maintain a website for looking up numbers. And I think they do still produce a book- i did see a newish looking one fairly recently - No idea where to get one though

Buddhism is a poison intended to induce imbecility in its followers. The religion was created by a blue eyed devil as a way to demoralize and pacify the rowdy and increasingly unruly dark skinned lower castes. They were told that their problems could be solved by looking inwards. Most of their problems were in fact caused by poverty and racism but the nihilistic religion taught them that their suffering was due to desire.
Buddhism is generally adopted by war wary civilizations. This is probably why Americans and Europeans took a serious interest in the religion only after WWII. This is a classic case of the white man getting high on his own supply.

You sound like a religious fanatic indoctrinated by evangelical TV Ghosts. You still call Buddhism a religion which it isn't. It's a Philosophy where everyone can become a Buddha. Try that with Christianity, Hinduism or Islam.
Today i guess no modern age person can become a real "Buddha" anymore because people cannot concentrate for a longer time than reading a 3 line Twitter thread.
I'm glad with Buddhism at least it's not a Religion and therefore does not has to search the Yellow Pages for new victims.
