    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It is again that time of year when we can pay our property taxes early for 2012, in La Paz county, and the new political party in power this year has decided to give discounts of 30% from now until Dec.31. Sounds good but there will be a small adjustment for most of us if your property is classified as Suburban or Urban. By small I am being facetious as the suburban taxes have a 20% increase and if you’re lucky enough to have an urban classification you get a 115% increase, one hundred and fifteen percent, not a typo. We have contacted the forces to be and expressed our concern over rights violations plus other factors involved and advised them this office would be filing a formal protest and not to look forward to seeing monies from this office until this matter is resolved. More to follow shortly. Regards, Dennis
====================================

Do not miss your opportunity to enter the ALMA Catch and Release Tournament next weekend or at least join us Sunday night at the Hotel Buena Vista Beach Resort for our awards dinner along with an absolutely fabulous silent auction and raffle. Imagine winning dinner for two at Ruth's Chris in Cabo for the price of a raffle ticket. Just one of the high end raffle and or silent auction items. You can enter the tournament by going to the East Cape Tackle in the Plaza at any time. You can also purchase dinner only tickets there everyday. However, we will be available at the Roadrunner daily from 9 to 11am to either sell you dinner tickets or enter you in the tournament starting this Sunday. Now if you want personal service, just call Kathy at 624-142-8078 or Luann at 624-142-8111 and we will deliver. The tournament dates are Friday night the 28th for the skipper's meeting at 5pm at Hotel Buena Vista Beach Resort, Saturday the 29th is the tournament date and Sunday at 5:30pm the silent auction and awards banquet will begin. Good luck to everyone since you have a great opportunity to win a $1200.00 first place prize of entry to the East Cape Bisbee's. Thanks for your support of ALMA Kathy

==============================================

If you plan to come down to the East Cape coming winter season please help me to find donated boxing gloves (used or new 16,14oz. are the most needed, 8-10oz for ladies and kids ) will be a great help for our group, our trainer Jose Salas (from Cuba, he is now nationalized Mexican) is a great human been, he is doing a wonderful social work in La Paz keeping youngsters out of vice and kids and ladies from obesity, his fee in minimum, almost ridiculous ($50 pesos!! about 4usd a month!!) and part of that goes to keep the gym going!! We are a bout 120 people in 5 different classes from 6:30am to 8pm, from all ages, shapes and economics back grounds and most of his students CAN NOT afford to buy their own pair of gloves. And like always we can't expect any help from our government. Our little gym lacks everything, but we solve many things with creativity, but gloves, jumping ropes (we tried regular rope, but it doesn't work when you try to speed up) and bandage are the biggest issues. You can drop your donations at my father & brother's shop in Los Barriles EL OSO (ask for Fred Velasco ¨The Maestro¨ or Fred Jr. ¨El Oso¨)

a.  Does anyone have any experience with viewing US Netflix in Mx yet? I saw the information about HYA on the BPE and I am wondering if anyone has done this yet.

b. "Does anyone in the Los Barriles area use a Kangen water system here? I have one at home in LA and would like to keep drinking the water while I'm here.
