Poesía declamada por Juan Manuel Ku Soberanis: Histórica participación de sexagenario
Manuel VALDEZ
ISLA MUJERES, 10 de septiembre.- The title of the poem could translate as Beginning Without End(ing), or Start without finish...or perhaps Endless beginning. There were four competitors at this third annual contest, which took place around 1pm at the Mundaca Hacienda. Jesus Contreras Gomez was one point shy of first place with his
presentation of his poem, "The Dark Eyed Seminarian" (El Seminarista de
los Ojos Negros) Third place was taken by a middle school teacher Juan Antonio Pech Sonda, who recited a poen he wrote expressing his love for his wife. .The oldest contestant was sixty eight year old Manuel Magaña Burgos,
who was given a special prize for demonstrating that poetry has no age
limit and senior citizens transmit culture to younger generations. The judge was Arturo Aceves who thanks the participants and the audience.

Dolphin regains her liberty, after being rescued by PROFEPA

Feliz regreso a casa

Por Carlos Gasca/Quequi The dolphin that was rescued a month ago at the beaches of the Cancun Hotel Zone was returned to the sea today, after an excellent recovery, thanks to the care of the veterinarians of Dolphin Discovery. The animal had a very inflamed liver, as well as parasites, and during the second week she had a gastric infection which was successfully treated. Veterinarian Roberto Sanchez said she responded very favorably to treatment, and now it is an excellent time to release her. When asked about her future, the vet said there are three possibilities. The first is she could return to the Tortugranja, and the second is she could join a group, which should not be difficult since she is a female. The third possibility is unlikely which is that she would return to 'beach herself'' on a beach. She was transported upon a vessel to about two nautical miles, then released, shorlty after 8am, which involved about 15 people. She spontaneously swam out to sea. -

Reduced lobster catch
Captura de langosta reducida+] Ver mas
Fishermen are repairing their nets while the weather is not good for fishing. The reporter interviewed fisherman Gustavo Bacab Garrindo who said that a new net can cost 3000 pesos. He said he uses his net daily to catch canane, el mero and el abadejo, among others. He said lobster production has fallen fifty percent. (?) In the case of the the cooperative Caribe, they collected 2.9 tons of lobster in July (of which 895 kilos were tail and 2125 were live lobster); which is an increase from the 1836 kilos (~1.8 tonnes)they caught at the same time last season. In August they collected 2.35 tonnes (of which 641 kilos were tails and 1.39 tonnes were alive), while at the same time last season they got 2.5 tonnes.
