November 6th 2012: Two brothers were found murdered in Tijuana, on the 'free road' to Tecate, from Tijuana. The first Alberto Galeana, known as 'Aldo', 20 years old. A little up the road, and not known until later, was the body of his older brother, Antonio Galena. Both bodies were wrapped in black tape, with the 'Looney Tunes' logo, adorning the tape, which covered the brothers completely. Bruises were visible on both of the bodies, amidst other signs of torture, or interrogation, Aldo's front teeth had been wrenched out, forcefully, and not surgically removed.
The two lifeless bodies found on the road, on the Sunday afternoon, were in a sense two more anonymous corpses, found with all the pre requisites of a narco related murder, wrapped in plastic, signs of torture, dumped on a road, coldly, like an afterthought. Two more, that will garner a brief mention in the local papers, and in a sense, that's all there will be.
This is not to slander the dead, or accuse the innocent, just a closer look at two brutal, yet, almost run of the mill executions, in a land where debt settling, and lines of credit will leave family members wrapped in plastic and tape, on the side of the road.
Alberto Galeana was 3 weeks away from graduating from the Autonomous University of Tijuana, (UBAC), with a degree in computer science, he was also an intern at 'El Mexicano', the prime contributor to this article, and one of the most well read newspapers in Tijuana, and San Diego, along with Zeta, and Frontera. Aldo held a 9.5 grade point average, was considered by classmates and employers to be a good student. His brother, Antonio, was involved in drug trafficking, and smuggling, going back at least eight years. He was arrested by San Diego police in Chula Vista, with an amount of drugs, which he was imprisoned for, sometime in 2004, or 2005.
This time, Antonio lost, across the border again, in San Diego, another car of drugs, which he was either delivering, or received on credit. Reports state that tried to work out a deal, by giving up another vehicle, and partial payment, but it didn't work out, one way or the other, and he and his brother were kidnapped, tortured, and killed. Then, thrown on the side of the road. The scenarios may not matter to some, and least of all to the family and friends of the victims, but here are a few different paths of what may have happened.
The Drugs: Roughly estimating, 25,000-50,000 worth of product, which is roughly 150 pounds of marijuana, cost, 35,000, somewhere in the realm of 300 per pound, depending on when he came into possession, and other factors. Or maybe 2 kilos of cocaine at 20,000 per kilo. Or 3 kilos of crystal, at 15,000 a kilo. Enough product that someone wanted their money made up, wouldn't have been less then 20,000, to have two people picked up and murdered. And not retail sales in Tijuana, but shipments that crossed the border. This wasn't someone killed for selling to the wrong customers or in the wrong place.
Reuters/Reuters - A worker at Pakistan's lone beer maker, Murree Brewery, checks the quality of bottles at the factory in Rawalpindi November 10, 2012. Murree Brewery, established in 1860 by British colonial …more rulers to supply beer to their troops, is desperately looking for business overseas to hedge against its uncertain domestic market. Prohibition was imposed in Pakistan in 1977, and non-Muslims and foreigners must obtain a government permit to purchase alcohol at designated retailers, which are mainly upscale hotels. Picture taken November 10, 2012. A worker at Pakistan's lone beer …
RAWALPINDI, Pakistan (Reuters) - What have Demi Moore, Bruce Willis, underage drinking and Pakistan's only beer maker got in common?
It was the arrest of the Hollywood stars' daughter in New York with a can of Murree Brewery's beer last June that propelled the company out of obscurity and into the spotlight.
Inundated with emails asking about its beer, Murree Brewery seized on the free publicity to launch expansion plans outside the Muslim nation, where alcohol is banned and those that do drink can become targets of Taliban militants and other Islamist fundamentalists.
Five months since the arrest, the 150-year-old company says it has lined up distributors that could see its flagship beer arrive on liquor store shelves in the United States and Dubai as early as the first quarter of next year.
"Demi Moore and Bruce Willis' daughter gave us multi-million dollars worth of publicity by default. We plan to go to the United States and make a queue to hug both the daughter and the mother," Sabih ur Rehman, special assistant to the chief executive, joked with Reuters.
SAN DIEGO (AP) - A former San Diego veterinarian who once performed cataract surgery on a rescued sea lion pup has been found dead in a burning car in Arizona.
His former wife tells U-T San Diego (http://bit.ly/PVPI0Y ) that Anthony Basher was in a borrowed Mercedes that caught fire last Friday north of Tucson. Kim Basher says the fire was accidental.
The Pima County Sheriff's Department says the official cause of Basher's death is pending.
His ex-wife says the 54-year-old vet was fired from a San Diego animal hospital several months ago but was working at other California clinics.
She says he also worked two days a week in Tucson, staying at a colleague's home north of town.
Basher was a specialist in ophthalmology and helped animals at SeaWorld and the San Diego Zoo.
Straight out of the X Files comes this clip from Denver's Fox 31. Last week, a viewer sent the station a video of something ... something spooky. A flying object was buzzing in the sky, and it looked like maybe it was carrying little green men.
Was it really a UFO? Suspecting the clip was a prank, the TV station sent out its own photojournalist to see if he could document the same weirdness on his own. Guess what? He did.
Fox 31 aired the footage and interviewed several experts in the field. None could identify the flying object. Aviation expert Steve Cowell told Fox 31's investigative reporter Heidi Hemmat, "That is not an airplane, that is not a helicopter, those are not birds, I can't identify it." Cowell, while mystified, did come up with a less mysterious possibility. "Perhaps there is some sort of debris that is being raised by atmospheric winds."
