NEW YORK - Moira Sauvane works as a cancer researcher at Columbia University in New York City. Javier Garcia, an Argentinian-American and a third-year psychiatric resident, and Moira Sauvane, an Argentinian and a post doctoral cancer researcher, are among the best tango dancing couples in the world.

For the last three years they danced the tango almost every evening, three to four hours a night, somewhere in New York City where they now live. Their tango is unique, in that they come together in a passionate dance dialogue where they exchange lead, in a constant form of improvisation. Their relationship is also unique. Moira is married to another man.

EL CHAPO & KATE Del CASTILLO ROMANTIC LOVE TEXTS - and Chapo Guzman didn't even know who Sean Penn was!

“I Will Take Care of You More Than I Do My Own Eyes”:

El Chapo’s Texts to Kate del Castillo

By Juliana Jiménez Jaramillo


The Mexican publication Milenio had a great scoop today: They got their hands on text messages exchanged between recently reimprisoned drug lord Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman and Kate del Castillo, the Mexican actress who brokered his meeting with Sean Penn. That meeting and interview, published in Rolling Stone, led to El Chapo’s arrest Friday.

According to Milenio, the text messages were sent over a series of encrypted BlackBerry devices. Throughout, El Chapo strikes an affectionate, at times romantic, tone with del Castillo, who reciprocates. How much of what either of them text is genuine romantic sentiment, we’ll never know.

What we do know is that when Mexican marines raided El Chapo's hideout they found the entire collection of del Castillo’s narconovela TV series, La Reina del Sur, in which she plays a drug lord who drinks, smokes, curses, and doesn’t hesitate to kill or torture whoever gets in her way.

The Mexican government confirmed for Telemundo that the texts are legitimate.

It's September 28th, 2015. My head is swimming, labeling TracPhones (burners), one per contact, one per day, destroy, burn, buy, balancing levels of encryption, mirroring through Blackphones, anonymous e-mail addresses, unsent messages accessed in draft form. It's a clandestine horror show for the single most technologically illiterate man left standing. At 55 years old, I've never learned to use a laptop. 

Do they still make laptops? No fucking idea! It's 4:00 in the afternoon. Another gorgeous fall day in New York City. The streets are abuzz with the lights and sirens of diplomatic movement, heads of state, U.N. officials, Secret Service details, the NYPD. It's the week of the U.N. General Assembly. Pope Francis blazed a trail and left town two days before. I'm sitting in my room at the St. Regis Hotel with my colleague and brother in arms, Espinoza.

Sean Penn's Secret Jungle Encounter with El Chapo Guzmaz - NY TIMES

NY TIMES 

Joaquín Guzmán Loera, the Mexican drug lord known as El Chapo, started out in business not long after turning 6, selling oranges and soft drinks. By 15, he said in an interview conducted in a jungle clearing by the actor and director Sean Penn for Rolling Stone magazine, he had begun to grow marijuana and poppies because there was no other way for his impoverished family to survive.

Now, unapologetically, he said: “I supply more heroin, methamphetamine, cocaine and marijuana than anybody else in the world. I have a fleet of submarines, airplanes, trucks and boats.”

Guzman, the infamous boss of the Sinaloa drug cartel, was arrested in northwest Mexico on Friday morning, and sent back to the prison he broke out of in July through a mile-long tunnel that led straight into his cell.
A rocket launcher, two armored vehicles and other weapons were seized in the operation, officials said. Video images showed Guzman, head covered by a white towel, being trundled onto a small airplane and transported to Mexico City.

Mexican Dentists Are Dancing In The Streets Over Obama Health Care.

By David de Los Angeles, Cabo Mexico writer

Updated Jan. 2, 2016

Are you desperate for a root canal but waiting for Obama Care? Don't hold your breath because the new plan does not  make dental care any more affordable. And the press has been silent about this.

Here's the reality: It's business as usual for America's dentists and a root canal will still cost the price of a plane ticket to London.

Here's what you get with the new Obama 'No' Dental Care plan:

Millions of dollars in oral hygiene education, fluoridation and federal subsidies for dental schools. So what! Millions of uninsured AND insured Americans will still be unable to afford expensive dental treatments such as root canals, crowns, veneers, implants, cosmetic dental makeovers etc.

The moment a short and stocky figure disappeared through a hole in his prison cell shower and into a mile-long tunnel that took him to freedom this past July, 2015 instantly became an iconic year in Mexico's war on its drug cartels — and an embarrassing one for the government.

Diplomacy is a craft that requires knowledge of both historical forces that define our relationships with other nations and an understanding of the dynamic forces impacting a nation in the present. A diplomat's world view cannot be tied to the past when we live in a world where major nations from a generation ago, such as the Soviet Union, Czechoslovakia or Yugoslavia, no longer exist.

BAJA CALIFORNIA WINES - A 300 Year Tradition - LA TIMES

Patrick Comiskey

Tradition and climate usually dictate what grows where in the wine world. Napa is Cabernet country because the climate, by and large, is amenable to ripening the grapes. The same can be said for Nebbiolo in Piemonte, Chardonnay in Chablis, Syrah in Hermitage.

So what is warm, dry, Baja California, Mexico, amenable to? All of these varietals, plus everything short of a few cool-climate grapes such as Pinot Noir and Riesling.

Thousands of Americans Deported from Mexico Every Year. Betcha didn't know that! By Fox News

I got deported from Mexico!’ Country expels thousands of U.S. citizens every year

Fox News Latino, By Gardeniia Mendoza 

MEXICO CITY –  Patrick Kowalski was 26 when he got bored of his job in the U.S. and took a trip to Mexico on a tourist visa in search of adrenaline and ready for anything.

He wanted to live like a Mexican, he said, and get to know the historic and cultural sites that everybody around him seemed to be talking about.

He ended up settling in Acapulco, where he said he lived his dream life of little work and plenty of booze and marijuana — until he was accused of robbing a woman. The accuser went to authorities, who asked him for his passport. That's when it emerged that his tourist permit to stay in Mexico had expired.

WHEN I FIRST FELL for Los Cabos—the resort area that stretches for about 20 miles between the towns of Cabo San Lucas and San José del Cabo on the southern tip of Mexico’s Baja peninsula—it was for all the usual reasons. Like the region’s iridescent quality of light and dramatic topography; the way its narrow blade of desert shears off to the Pacific on one side and to the Sea of Cortez on the other. The hotels didn’t hurt, either—luxurious, bougainvillea-draped villas and palm-thatched compounds that line up along the shore like so many beauty-pageant contestants.
