On Monday I’ll be on my way to Mexico, and just in time to see my baby! C:My cousin, his best friend and I have a surprise planned out and everything.

I really really really want to tell him because he tells me every day he misses me and he wishes I could be there. Especially since a while back he started noticing that his blood pressure would go down and after he went to the doctor they told him he had a mild heart problem.. :C He was put on medication, they told him he had to change the food he ate, and that he couldn’t smoke or drink because that was one of the main reasons his blood pressure went down so frequently. And a couple weeks ago they told him he was fine and all. And last Friday he decided to go party and drink. So yesterday when he went to the doctor they told him he had to be back on the medication because his heart problem was coming back, but now! he has a not so dangerous but serious liver problem.. :C

I just want to get to Mexico already and be with him. Even if it’s just for 2 months, I just want to be with him!

Mexico’s president is granting a repeated request of Javier Sicilia, a poet who has become the de facto leader of Mexico’s peace movement after his son was killed earlier this year.

Sicilia has strongly criticized President Felipe Calderףn’s military-led offensive against organized crime, which has not reduced violence in Mexico. In his public appearances, including two very high-profile recent marches for peace and victims’ rights, the poet-activist has asked Calderףn to agree to meet with him.

President Calderףn and members of his cabinet have agreed to meet Sicilia on June 23.

According to legend, the various groups who were to become the Aztecs arrived from the north into the Anahuac valley around Lake Texcoco. The location of this valley and lake of destination is clear – it is the heart of modern Mexico City– but little can be known with certainty about the origin of the Aztec.

There are different accounts of their origin. In the myth the ancestors of the Mexica/Aztec came from a place in the north called Aztlan, the last of seven nahuatlacas (Nahuatl-speaking tribes, from tlaca, “man”) to make the journey southward, hence their name “Azteca.” Other accounts cite their origin in Chicomostoc, “the place of the seven caves,” or at Tamoanchan (the legendary origin of all civilizations).

The Mexica/Aztec were said to be guided by their god Huitzilopochtli, meaning “Left-handed Hummingbird” or “Hummingbird from the South.” When they arrived at an island in the lake, they saw an eagle which was perched on a nopal cactus full of its fruits (nochtli). This vision fulfilled a prophecy telling them that they should found their new home on that spot. The Aztecs built their city of Tenochtitlan on that site, building a great artificial island, which today is in the center of Mexico City. This legendary vision is pictured on the Coat of Arms of Mexico.

the Guardian - El ‘Brad Pitt’ arrested in Mexico drug swoop

Marco Antonio Guzmán is accused of leading the armed wing of the Juárez cartel, which has terrorised northern Mexico

Federal authorities have detained a former police officer accused of leading the armed wing of the violent Juárez cartel in northern Mexico, according to the government.

Marco Antonio Guzmán, who had several aliases including “El Brad Pitt”, was captured on Wednesday in Chihuahua along with two alleged accomplices, according to a federal police statement.

Guzmán, 34, was brought to the Mexican capital on Thursday and shown, handcuffed, to the media.

Police said Guzmán was involved in a car bomb explosion that killed a federal police officer and two civilians in June 2010.

They also accuse him of being involved in drug-trafficking operations across Chihuahua. Ciudad Juárez is one of the worst-affected areas of the drug war, where an estimated 3,100 people were killed in 2010.

A federal official speaking off the record said Guzmán’s nickname El Brad Pitt comes from a disguise he wore when he served as a lookout for the Juárez cartel.

To go unnoticed, he tried to look like a tourist wearing his hair long, a baseball cap and a camera around his neck. According to the official, gang associates said Guzmán looked like Pitt in a scene from the American film Spy Game about CIA agents, in which the actor wore a similar outfit.

Guzmán had a $42,000 (£26,000) reward for his capture, and may have been planning another such bombing – federal police said in a statement that he had been responsible for acquiring another load of explosives seized in Ciudad Juárez on April 25.

He also alleged to have participated in a videotaped killing that was posted online.

Also on Thursday, federal police said they arrested a leader of the so-called Zodiac kidnapping gang, whose member used the signs of the zodiac as nicknames.

Dhither Camarillo Palafox, alias Taurus, was arrested in Cancun on Friday. His alleged associates nicknamed Sagittarius and Aquarius were arrested in 2009. The group’s other leader, nicknamed Cancer, was detained in 2005.

The group allegedly carried out kidnappings in and around Mexico City.

Tonalapa Del Sur

The Nahua indians of Mexico speak the long lost language of Nahuatl. I remember watching these people walking barefoot in the city and carrying their children on their backs, wrapped in a scarf. They have their own communities and modes of transportation in a county dominated by the Spanish language. Its quite a sight to see.
