Officers Stop Deer on Bay Bridge 

for ‘Toll Evasion’

California highway officers say they stopped a
young deer on the east span of the Bay Bridge
“for toll evasion.”

A photo published Tuesday by the California
Highway Patrol shows the deer on the bridge
standing in the middle of an on-ramp with a
deer-in-the-headlights look.

The officer joked in a Twitter post that the
doe usually pays the toll but “today she was
 a buck short.”

It looks to us like that “doe” is really a young
spike buck — if you look closely, you’ll notice
two small thin antlers. “She” may have had that
buck after all.

CHP Officer Matthew Hamer says two officers
were on patrol on the bridge early Tuesday when
the deer came out of the woods on Treasure
Island and walked in front of their car.

He says after staring at them for a couple of
minutes — long enough for the officers to
snap a photograph — the deer went back
 into the woods.

Some Solar Fun... great post Wandering His Wonders Eclipsing Our Last Day At Glacier Posted: 29 Aug 2017 08:28 AM PDT

Wandering His Wonders

Eclipsing Our Last Day At Glacier Posted: 29 Aug 2017 08:28 AM PDT Our last day at Glacier National Park just happened to coincide with the solar eclipse. This area will see an 87% eclipse, but we found out that 100% of the eclipse glasses were sold out at our remote location. So we made a solar viewing box instead. It took us several prototypes to get the hole just right, but it really did show the changing shape of the sun when we looked through the viewing corner onto the white screen we taped to the bottom. (We just realized this picture looks like Denisa is very hungry, searching for the last pieces of cereal at the bottom of that box.) Mark took this picture of Denisa with the sun behind her, watching the sun become a crescent. We include it in the blog because somehow that crescent-shaped sun appeared on Denisa's cuff in the picture. We tried to take pictures of the sun, and got a few of photos of the slivers of the sun as the moon moved across it. We noticed the temperatures cooled in our campground during the maximum coverage. We got to see it clearly when some of our neighbors let us borrow their glasses, so it was a successful eclipse viewing at East Glacier. Once all the eclipse hoop-la was over, we made the short drive to our final Glacier National Park adventure. We had been checking out the kayaking possibilities, and decided the lake at the Two Medicine entrance would be great. So we inflated our trusty kayak, even though the wind had picked up and it was a little cool on the shore. Mountains surround the water, so it is beautiful place to be in the middle of Two Medicine Lake. With the wind in our face, we headed out on the lake. The waves were big enough that we found staying close to the shore was best. We also found that going slowly meant that less water lapped into the boat. Going slowly means that Denisa didn't have to row. This is turning out to be a great kayak trip! Besides that, the water is  perfectly clear. We could see the rocks at the bottom of the lake until it dropped off and the water got too deep. We were looking for wildlife along the shore, but the trees are so thick it would be hard for anything big to make its way to the water. We did find this interesting duck--a Merganser--keeping guard. She was guarding this fluffy group of pointy-beaked youngsters that were huddled together near the water. It's hard to get a perspective on just how big the mountains around us are. Those are forty foot pine trees along the water, and they look tiny at the foot of Rising Wolf Mountain. Another perspective of size for the mountains is the passenger boat that shuttles people the length of the lake. While that's a good way for most people to see the lake, we much prefer a ride in our kayak. As windy as it was on the east side of the lake, by the time we rowed to the west end the water was perfectly still. Instead of white-capping waves, we had reflections of the surrounding mountains on the glass-smooth water. Now with the wind at our back, it was an easy ride back to the shore. This is our last day at Glacier National Park, and these are our final views of the mountains we have come to love. With all the wild fires in Montana, we are also appreciating the blue skies that we have been blessed with here at East Glacier. We have enjoyed some beautiful skies here in Big Sky Country. This was a view over our campground at sunset. We're actually looking at the eastern sky, as the pinks and purples spilled over to light up the eastern horizon. It's been a great ten days on the east side of Glacier National Park, preceded by a fun ten days on the west side. But it's time to move down the road to new adventures tomorrow!

Zipolite Founder Insists Entrepreneurs in Prison

By admin | Aug 25, 2017 | 0 Comments

• Despite the fact that the land is in agrarian litigation, entrepreneurs, owners of El Alquimista began to build bungalows, violating municipal and agrarian laws 
• They remove seals of works closing twice and allied with Zipolite representative 
• Municipal authorities initiate route Legal for contempt

With gangster methods, Zipolite's representative, Berenice Díaz, backed the contempt of El Alquimista's businessmen.

Patricia Pacheco

SAN PEDRO POCHUTLA .- In spite of there being an order of suspension of work on the part of the City council of San Pedro Pochutla and also an exhorto in the same sense on the part of Commissariat of Communal Goods; Businessman Daniel Gustavo Cohen Sabban, owner of restaurant El Alquimista, insists on violating the law and building a bungalow on a land in agrarian litigation owned by Gloria Johnson Ramirez, founder of Zipolite and owner of the legendary hostel Shambala.

Work begins on land in litigation

For several days, entrepreneurs owners of The Alchemist, insist on building on a property that is in agrarian litigation.

For several months there has been a dispute over an area of ​​approximately 1,000 square meters, located on the shore of the beach, on the side of El Alquimista, on the southern part of Zipolite beach, which forms part of the land occupied by the hostel and ceremonial center Shambala, which was illegally sold to Daniel Cohen by the particular Juan Martinez Ramirez, a former collaborator of Gloria Johnson, who committed abuse of trust passed through as owner of the same through apocryphal documents.

After paying a millionaire sum to Juan Martinez, the businessman, who is a partner of the Argentine Marcelo Barbas Larrarte and Juan Carlos Malazzo Muti, decided to start building a luxury bungalow on the property, despite the fact that he is in a litigation Agrarian, which has been censored not only by authorities, but by the bulk of the community of Zipolite, who qualify the grievance to Gloria, a woman of advanced age, as an abuse on the part of employers.

The law "alchemists" and agent break

It was thus as the first communal organ of Pochutla extended a document the past 19 of August, in which Daniel Cohen is asked to stop the work, without that it took heed; But the dispute reached its climax when last Wednesday, after Pochutla authorities suspended the work for lack of construction license, and placed corresponding stamps, the brand new entrepreneurs, endorsed by the agent Berenice Díaz Gómez, broke the mandate And removed the stamps to continue with the works.

The fact put on alert to municipal officials, who described the fact as a disrespect to the authority, and determined to reject the owners of The Alchemist.

On Wednesday afternoon, in a new inspection of the work to reiterate the suspension, officials headed by the Public Works councilor, Heriberto Jacinto Juárez, were confronted by the agent herself and a group of shock subjects, who were haughtily Refused to abide by the suspension.

The property has great value for being on the beach, in the area of ​​highest value in Zipolite.

Closing, preventive measure

According to the councilman of Public Works of Pochutla, the closing of the work is a preventive measure that must be complied with based on the Regulation of Construction and Structural Safety for the State of Oaxaca, since "while the property is in dispute and does not count With a building permit, no work can be carried out in it and it will have to be until the Agrarian Unitary Court issues its resolution that the building can be definitively resumed or canceled. "

This does not seem to matter to the members of El Alquimista - one of them, the most visible, Marcelo Barbas, now with a position in the municipal agency - or to the agent Berenice Diaz, who evades to comply with the law and they gain to pulse the repudiation Of the zipoliteños, acting of gangster form to strip of a land to one of the founders of the beach Zipolite and fighter for decades of the lands in the place.

Asked about this, Gloria Johnson, as affected, claimed to be baffled by the obstinacy of the group of businessmen to act outside the law in order to appropriate a land that does not belong to them, As part of a chain of illegalities initiated by his former collaborator, Juan Martínez.

"I am confident that the law will be applied and the Agrarian Court will do its part so that my rights will not be violated," he reiterated.

Commencement of proceedings against repeat offenders

It is expected that before the new contempt of the employers and the municipal representative, municipal authorities value the use of public forces, and as confirmed by Heriberto Jacinto, will initiate a criminal legal proceeding for the crime in which both the representative, The entrepreneurs or who is responsible for it.

With this, it is hoped that in the next few days the works will be definitively stopped, given the closeness of those who say that the villagers have appropriated other land on the beach not only in Zipolite but also in Mazunte.

By evading the law, the "businessmen" ignored the order of suspension of work issued by Communal Goods and by municipal authorities.
