1)  For Mac users: Osx 10.3.3 was released today and is a very important update to patch a serious security flaw. Oddly, the patch was released only for the newer version of their operating system – Yosemite. Older systems can be affected by the flaw but were not patched by Apple. The flaw can allow a takeover of your system. Just be careful where you go if you have an older Mac. Some Macs have encountered some crash issues with “Finder”. Here is a link to the fix:

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

a.  Does anyone know where to find information on the very strong mini storm that hit Los Barriles, Buena Vista, El Cardonal, Punta Pescadero Sunday, April 12th? It started around midnight and finished around 8 am with the high waves (hurricane type).  hardtrance9@gmail.com

I found this article BCS Noticias, FaceBook.  Translated by Google

La Paz, Baja California Sur (BCS) . For this April 11 heavy rain and even hail in some areas are forecast Baja California Sur , and more in the north of the state.
According to the forecast made ​​by Metmex a low pressure system will cause adverse in central and northern Baja California Sur weather, so there is potential for moderate to heavy rain with thunderstorm activity without discarding the hail, mainly in Comondú, Loreto and Mulege, where the probability of rain is 100 percent (like for Sunday), while in La Paz and Los Cabos is 60 and 50 percent, respectively.
In addition, moderate to strong wind forecast in much of Baja California Sur, particularly in the Gulf of California , wind 30 to 45km / h with gusts of 50 to 60km / h higher at sea.
To this afternoon, it was predicted that the maximum temperatures will slowly decline as a result of a layer of clouds.

QUESTIONS - Please share your answers 

a.  What has been your experience with Mexican vehicle insurance? Good, bad or indifferent!
we have a relatively small claim with our insurance company due to our ATV trailer being destroyed in a fire in late November. We still have not received our settlement even though the settlement amount was agreed upon, a bill of sale given to the company, but we are just ignored when we enquire as to when we will receive a check. It is time to renew our insurance and I would appreciate any feedback from you as to your experiences. Nancyjstibbard@gmail.com

b.   I'm looking to house sit over the summer in Los Barriles. We actually own a home in La Paz but I'll be working this summer in the East Cape. I have handyman experience. Maybe we can work something out.   Thanks. Ace Shawver 612-149-3572
