The World Cup has been a thrilling distraction from recent tragic and dangerous events in different parts of the world. México, which has participated in every World Cup since 1994, always reaching round 16, had stumbled through qualifications. Playing extremely well and with obvious joy, TRI is led by the Miguel Herrera, the exuberant director who became a star because of his unbridled passion for his team and for the game. Sad to see the weeping players and crowd in the knock-out game against Holland. TRI played one of the best teams in the world, and almost won. A win would have given a huge emotional boost to a country with 60% poverty and an undeserved amount of bad press.

Also fantastic - the PEACEAnimals team, consisting of director/ vet tech, Paulina Stettner and doctors Poli and Anthony. Their work is intense, precise, and it is superb. Standing for at least five hours each surgery day in less than ideal spaces, they often have no time to take even a five-minute break. Since the founding of of PEACEAnimals free mobile spay/neuter clinics, one year ago in June, here are the results:
June 19, 2013-November 9-2013 - 20 clinics resulting in the sterilization of 1,886 cats and dogs
Total cats and dogs sterilized in our fist year of operation: 3,729

PEACEAnimals would like to increase the number of members on the board of directors. With more board members, we can reduce annual dues. If you have an interest in helping reduce the number of unwanted births in the cat and dog population and can commit to one meeting (in person or conference call) and "giving or getting" $3,000 USD a year, please contact me.

Dazzlingly beautiful beach breaks between rains - the water is clear, pale emerald green and 88 degrees. Brown pelicans aren´t disturbed by a few nearby swimmers and voluminous, white pillowed clouds hover above the horizon.

CABALLO SUFRIENDO EN BUCERIAS: Un correo recibido:
"Hola, vivo en Bucerias, hace algunas semanas en las cercanias de mi casa veo un caballo que a mi parecer está siendo maltratado. El dueño lo tiene viviendo a la intemperie, cada vez que llueve el caballo se moja y sufre bajo las tormentas eléctricas sin ninguna protección. Sabiendo que los caballos son animales muy sensibles ésto me parece realmente cruel. Para colmo durante el dia lo saca de su terreno y lo amarra de frente a su casa sobre la banqueta la cual obviamente queda llena de orina y excremento, totalmente insalubre para las personas que por ahí pasamos. La dirección es: Lucio blanco no. 38 casi esquina con 20 de noviembre, entrando por Telmex. Gracias y ojalá puedan hacer algo por éste pobre animal."
