For your information the Rotary Club Los Barriles Cabo Este in joint venture with Georgina Rochin and Hotel Buenavista Beach Resort are working on the opening of a highly needed Child Care facility for all those moms who need a place to leave their children while they go out to work. The Rotary Club is sponsoring this project same as the Technology Center and we are trying to make something important for our community. Right now the renovation of the house where the day care is going to be is on time and we have cleaned the whole property. Now we need to start putting some equipment together and do some roof work, walls, windows and doors. So as you can read there many thing to do yet.  And we are looking for all those generous souls who would like to donate to this amazing project. Right now we are looking for a refrigerator and a stove for the kids kitchen. We also need some financial support for the building of the new roof. All your donations can be directed to Rotary Club Los Barriles Cabo Este. If you need more information or would like to let us know of things that you might be able to help with, please contact us at felipe@hotelbuenavista.com  or claudiamercado@yahoo.com     Felipe Valdez

East Cape Health Center is doing it !!
We have negotiated to take over the available Banamex Bank space in Plaza Libertad, starting internal demolition yesterday ! We are building a new Shock/Trauma unit, new modern exam rooms and fully stocked and expanded public pharmacy. It should be ready for our move-in within a few months !!
Our current location will remain open as the Diagnostic Center, providing the community with digital X Ray, ultra sound, fully functioning laboratory and Vision Center.
I will keep you updated !!
Thanks to everyone for your belief, trust and support in our medical and dental clinics over the years. When finished this fall, we will continue providing outstanding emergency and medical services. If interested in being part of our growth, donations are now being accepted at the clinic or International Community Foundation for tax deferred donations.
Thank you !! Charlene Wenger

ANSWERS - DISCUSSIONS- This category must have name and/or email address.

a.  Answers to the Sunrise Phenomenon photo:
                                

          1)  I definitely know what it is.  It's the StaPuff Marshmellow Man rising like a Pheonix out of the sea.  Unfortunately, the hot summer Baja sun melted him.  Seriously, whatever it is, you were very fortunate to have seen it. 

          2)  I witnessed a Mexican military helicopter blow up a super panga that was running drugs and crossing the Cortez one time, and it looked similar, but the smoke trail lasted about 20 minutes...

          3)  The picture is of a vertical rising cloud formation. I see them all the time in the morning. This particular one is perfectly positioned to be backlit by the rising sun.

          4)   Baja Night Sky -- August 2014. 1.  I will offer my best guess as to what the interesting crepuscular photo submitted to the BPE might be.  Crepuscular refers to phenomenon occurring around dawn and dusk so I suspect the bright image breaking out of the morning's horizon clouds is formed by crepuscular rays.  Crepuscular rays, sometimes referred to as God's rays, are one of  many atmospheric phenomenon such as rainbows, halos, sun dogs, and the famous green flash that occur under the right conditions.  They are rays from the sun that  shine through gaps in clouds, mountains or even buildings. Sometimes they will appear as shafts of light streaming through a series of holes in a cloud cover giving the sky  a "cathedral-like" look. With the apparent cloud cover the day of the photo, rising warm air or a temperature inversion might have opened up one hole in the clouds to let sunlight through. As the hole grew larger, sunlight passing though would cause a growing region of clouds near the horizon to be illuminated, then as the hole closed up the bright image would disappear. Google "crepuscular rays" and click on images and you will find a few similar to the one in question. But if you look close, the image appears to be a woman  leaning to her left. She is wearing a hat and high-heel boots. So maybe we have a new mystery for the Sea of Cortez.  2.  The two brightest objects in the sky after the sun and moon, Venus and Jupiter, are moving closer together in the pre-dawn sky. They will come closest Monday morning, August 18. Enjoy your beautiful  Baja Night Sky. Here in Sacramento, I managed to count 10 stars last night in a clear sky.      Tom S.   BajaNightSky@gmail.com
