Bali airport will be closed for 24 hours, the Internet will be cut off and the streets will be emptied as Indonesia's Hindu-dominated island celebrates its new year of silence.  The New Year begins at 6 am on Thursday, leaving beaches and all public places except for special patrols to ensure silence.  For the second year, telephone companies will shut down the mobile Internet in the island, which has more than 4 million people.  The people of Bali will stay indoors where they will cover the windows and turn off the lights for the day of reflection, the holiest Hindu in Bali, where any tourist on the island must stay at his hotel.
