============================================
The Bisbee begins! The first of the traveling boats
- the ‘Battleships’, are coming up from Cabo and San Jose, anchoring
out in front of the beautiful Hotel Buena Vista. The East Cape fleet
is readying itself to compete. Tuesday afternoon and evening are
sign ups at the hotel followed by the Captain’s Meeting, aka a
fiesta! All are welcome to come and enjoy the festivities. Wednesday
morning, 7 am, the start gun flare will send off the fleet. Lines
out of the water are at 4 pm, fish must be weighed by 7 pm. Thursday
and Friday the fishing schedule continues and Saturday evening the
Awards banquet will be held shoreside on the sand at the hotel. Stay
tuned!
================================================
When we have a partial electric failure as we did
last night that precautions must be taken to protect your electrical
equipment. Refrigerators, fans, A/C´s, etc. must be unplugged as
they will try and start on the feeble current in the lines and most
likely burn out or be damaged. The safest is to cut the power to the
house until the problem has been fixed by the CFE. Of course in a
total power outage they have already disconnected your house for
you. Dennis
==================================
“Cut the cord” in the USA-
That means you are unplugging the old fashioned phone line, cable or
satellite company. Here's what you need to make that happen. “Free
over the Air TV” like we had as kids offers far better resolution
than Cable or Satellite. You don't need a huge external antenna like
Mom had. Antennaweb.org will tell you what stations you will receive
and what antenna you need. Channel Master and Tivo offer digital
recorders that will allow you to record over the air TV shows for
playback at a later time. Tivo requires a subscription for their TV
Guide; Channel Master does not. An Internet connection is essential
to cord cutters. In most cases, you can purchase “bare” internet
from your cable company or DSL providers. The phone companies don't
like it but if you press them, it may available. With the internet
connection you have access to Netflix, Hulu (TV Network media),
Amazon Prime Movies and a host of others. Those providers and others
are available on Smart TV's as well as Set Top Boxes like Roku,
Apple TV, Chromecast, Kindle Fire and many others. That's a lot of
content! News programs are widely available on those Set Top Boxes.
“Cutting the Phone Cord” You can purchase a wireless home phone
system from Straight Talk available at WalMart for $15 per month.
The device cost $70 and will plug into your existing phone system.
It runs on the Verizon wireless network. For $15 per month you get
unlimited local and long distance phone calls.
New Cell phone carrier - There's a new player on the block for cheap
cell phone service called Republic Wireless. They have plans as
cheap as $5 per month – WiFi service only. But, if you want
unlimited calling, text and unlimited 3G data, it will cost you $25
per month. It's non-contract and you can change your plan when your
needs change. Here's how it works. You must purchase one of the
three phones from Republic Wireless that are unsubsidized. The
phones are from Motorola (a division currently owned by Google) and
all three are very good phones using the latest Android system. When
you are in your home, the phone will use your WiFi signal for calls,
data and text. When you venture outside, the phone will seamlessly
change to the Cell Towers. The only possible downside is that
Republic uses the Sprint network. According to the Republic web site
FAQs, the phone will work to make calls from your WiFi in Mexico
back to the US or Canada. Again, according to their web site, it
will receive calls when in your WiFi environment in Baja. It will
not work on the cell system outside the US Sprint Network.
Cancel the Cable/Satellite save $110, land line save $25, AT&T Cell
save $80, total savings: $225
Add Netflix $10, Hulu Plus $10, Republic Wireless $25, Straight Talk
$15 total $60
