Victor, an African by birth, was elected pope in 189. During his pontificate, which lasted until 198, he settled the controversy over the date of Easter. In fact, while the Western Church used to celebrate Easter on Sunday, the Eastern Church would celebrate it on 14 Nisan, whatever the day of the week. After much consultation and discussion, the decision was taken to celebrate it on Sunday throughout the Church. He was the first pope from Africa.
Yucatan! Where The Jobs Are! An American, Mitch Keenan is in the real estate business in Yucatan, so it is his job to know how many tens of millions of dollars have been invested in tourism in Yucatan in the past few years, along with how many billions of exports there have been and how many tens of millions of dollars have also been invested in real estate here. Merida is thrilled to read the following: Yucatan recorded an increase of 19,698 new jobs in the second quarter of this year compared to the same period of 2008, and ranked as the fourth largest in the country with highest rate of movement in the labor market. It is worth noting the progress of Yucatan’s economy, despite the national economic downturn. From the third quarter of 2007 to June of this year, the National Survey of Occupation and Employment INEGI registered a growth of 52,589 people employed. This is great news and we are very happy for the construction workers all over our state, and wish them more and better in the future!
Baby Turtles Released Yesterday It took a team of 14 biologists to work up the nerve to release thousands of Kemp’s Ridley sea turtle hatchlings from the western coast of the Gulf of Mexico today. They said the risk of keeping the babies in captivity could disrupt their life cycle and do more harm than the risk of their running into oil 640 km away. They are banking on BP having the oil cleaned up before the babies can get that far. We know they made the only decision they could, but it is still stressful to even think about. Everyone is so sorry this has happened… and only wish that BP was sorry too.
Where Is This Yucatan Back Country? Ok, all you fishermen. We just found a great video that is supposed to be of fishing for giant snook, tarpon and permit in the “Yucatan Back Country.” The problem is that the fishing may be great but they never tell us where they are. That’s just like a fisherman. They’ll keep a good fishing hole a secret for their entire life! We would also like to remind the folks in this video that the Navy and those responsible for coming to their aid in times of trouble has asked – yet again and just this week – that fishermen and boaters please wear life jackets. So many lives have been needlessly lost for want of just this one piece of equipment.
