Press Release
Semikron geared for further growth
Opening of modern logistics centre coincides with 60th anniversary
Nuremberg, 12 July 2011 – Coinciding with the 60th anniversary of Semikron the company further expands its headquarters in Nuremberg. A state-of-the-art logistics centre with an utilisation area of 12 300 m² is added to the total area of 42 000 m². With this latest development Semikron is geared for the expected future growth. During 2010 and 2011 a total of €114 million has been invested in the expansion of production areas and equipment worldwide. The opening ceremony takes place on Tuesday, 12 July 2011.
Marking its 60th anniversary, Semikron announced a turnover of € 545 million for the business year 2010. This is an increase of 68% compared to 2009. Since the first diode/ thyristor module was developed and presented to the market in 1975, Semikron has been the market leader in this sector. According to IMS Research, "The global power semiconductor market 2010", the company still leads with a market share of 30%.
31% of the turnover is generated from the renewable energies market which has more than doubled over the last three years, following the drives market with a share of thirty five percent. Semikron developed the first IGBT modules for use in wind turbines the beginning of the 1990´s. These modules featured innovative pressure contact technology, integrated power, driver and sensor functions and met the challenges posed by this entirely new area of application in terms of long-term reliability and power density.
The experience in the electric hybrid vehicle market also dates back to the early 1990`s, long before the German government announced that one million passenger cars must be electrically driven by 2020. In 2010 Semikron introduced Skai, the most compact power electronic systems for hybrid and electric vehicles for use in the agricultural industry, construction industry, materials handling and battery-powered vehicles of any kind. The dedication to this market is evident in partner cooperations with Compact Dynamics and Drivetek and the 100% take-over of Vepoint. 560.000 electric fork lifts and 8.250 hybrid busses are powered by Semikron technology.
In May this year a revolutionary packaging technology for power semiconductors which does away with bond wires, solders and thermal paste was launched. This reliable and space-saving technology is the optimum solution for vehicle and wind power applications, markets with a high growth rate.
The family business started from humble beginnings in Nuremberg in 1951 but has established itself as a global player and power electronics innovator to be reckoned with in this industry: 3.600 employees, 35 companies, 10 production sites and market leader in diode/thyristor modules for thirty six years.
"We set the trend, we do not imitate is our philosophy", states Dirk Heidenreich, CEO of Semikron International. To guarantee the further growth Semikron has increased the number of employees from 2.700 in 2009 to 3.600 in 2011, in Nuremberg from 1.190 to 1.500.
One of the driving forces behind this growth over the past 60 years is contributed to the continuity in management. But also the continuious striving for innovations in power electronics, specifically packaging technologies for power electronic modules which allows for higher efficiency, reliability and decreased size - green technologies dealing with energy generation and conversion.

About SEMIKRON:

A global network of 35 companies with production plants in Brazil, China, France, Germany, India, Italy, Korea, Slovakia, South Africa and USA guarantees fast and competent on-site customer care.
Semikron is a one-stop provider of chips, discrete semiconductors, transistor, diode and thyristor power modules, power assemblies and systems for markets such as industrial drives, wind and solar, hybrid and electric vehicles, the rail industry and power supplies. Globally Semikron technology powers nearly every second windmill. According to a survey carried out by BTM Consult ApS, the total wind power capacity installed until 2009 was 122 Gigawatt. 57 Gigawatt comprises power semiconductors from Semikron.
The dedication to the hybrid and electric vehicle market is evident in the development and production of power semiconductors for this market but also the majority take-over of Compact Dynamics GmbH, a development specialist for innovative control systems, the joint venture with drivetek, a provider for application-specific control technology, and the take-over of VePOINT, developing and producing inverters, DC/DC converters and chargers.
Semikron is the market leader in the field of diode/thyristor semiconductor modules, enjoying a 30% share of the worldwide market. (Source: IMS Research "The global power semiconductor market 2010")

Autumn Centerpiece
Celebrate Fall with this lovely pumpkin centerpiece.
Designed by Chris Wallace courtesy of Walnut Hollow®.
Material List
- Creative Versa-Tool™ Kit
- Foam Pumpkins
- Candle Jars
- Basswood Country Rounds
- Graphite Transfer Paper
- Silk Flower Bunch - Fall Color of Choice
- Pliers
- Low Heat Glue Gun and Glue Sticks (or strong liquid glue)
- Tape
- Ruler
- Plain Paper - White
- Stylus (or ball point pen)
- Tweezers
Project Instructions
Attach hot knife point on tool. Tighten with pliers. Secure stand to work surface with tape. Place tool on stand. Plug into electric outlet, turn Versa-Temp control dial to the red zone, and heat for 4-5 minutes.
Place candle jar lid over pumpkin stem. Use pencil to draw "cut" line around lid. Use hot knife point to cut around stem. Remove top cut portion of pumpkin.
Make six copies of diamond pattern. Place around pumpkin, first on seams, then eye-balling two more diamonds between seams, approximately 3" from cut top. Tape to secure patterns. Use graphite transfer paper under diamond pattern to trace onto pumpkin with stylus. Cut out all diamond shapes with hot knife point. You will notice that the pumpkin is a little thicker near the seams. Remove hot knife point.
Turn Versa-Temp control dial to the orange zone. Attach shading point. Wood-burn leaf design using shading point around outside edge of Basswood Country Round. Use edge of point to make stems, pulling out from each leaf. Remove shading point.
Turn Versa-Temp control dial to the yellow-orange zone. Attach flow point on tool. Use tweezers to place iron-on crystals around diamond shape. Holding tool perpendicular to the crystal, adhere by touching the point on the crystal. The heat from the tool will flow through the crystal to melt the adhesive. You will feel the adhesive "move" on the back of the crystal. Lift off and let crystal cool. Remove flow point.
Adhere candle jar to top of pumpkin with low temp glue gun or strong liquid glue.
Turn Versa-Temp control dial to the orange zone. Attach tapered point using pliers. Use wire cutter part of pliers to cut flowers and leaves off each stem, leaving about 1" stem. Burn holes into the pumpkin just under the jar. Place stems into the holes.
Create smaller pumpkin following the instructions above, eliminating the diamond pattern step. Use your choice of hot stamps that come with the Creative Versa-Tool to decorate the edge of the Basswood Country Round. The iron-on crystals are placed here and there on the pumpkin.
No need to add pressure or twist the Points - let the heat from the Tool do the work. Before using, read manufacturers instructions found inside the Creative Versa-Tool™.
All of the Points are threaded and designed to be screwed into the end of the Tool. Always use a pliers to change the Points.

This sophisticated resort is situated amidst the sportive centre of St. Moritz and it charms its guests with an extraordinary idea came true - a Grand hotel of the savoir vivre. The St. Moritz Spa was honored with two awards this year, labeling the St. Moritz Spa as one of the 10 best worldwide winter sport Spas and the "Best Alpine Spa". Meal plan: buffet breakfast.
This is a typical and historical Engadine house designed by Nikolaus Hartmann, a local architect with national reputation. Delightful, original hotel lobby with impressive arched ceiling and granite pillars, original chandeliers, attractive forged iron fireplace. Rooms with different sizes and views. All of them equipped with minibar, TV, radio, alarm clock, safe, hair dryer and telephones with voice mail, digital and analogical connections.
Located in Silvaplana Surljet, only 5km from St Moritz, the Nira Alpina is connected to the Corvatsch cable car station. This allows guests to take full advantage of the ski-in/ski-out access by using the private walkway. In a mere fifteen minutes, you will ascend 3300 meters to the highest point of the ski area.

After a day on the slopes savor world-renowned cuisine in one of the hotels restaurants or relax in the Rooftop Bar. Enjoy the tranquil Nira Spa with amenities including a vast whirlpool, sauna, steam room, relaxation rooms, and a fitness room. Stylish guest rooms feature a terrace or balcony with magnificent views of the Engadin Mountains.

Hertz Furniture's kids play furniture collection is designed for hours and hours of safe fun. Features like rounded edges, pinch-me-not doors, no-tip furniture and non-toxic paint ensure your students' safety. So come take a look at our play furniture for preschoolers - and relive your childhood once more.
Dramatic play can help little ones develop important language and social skills. With a variety of realistic and imaginative-play toys, children can choose the items that are most enticing to them. It is important to furnish an early-childhood classroom with a variety of play furniture so all children can find a few options that will encourage them to explore their creative talents.
One of the most common dramatic play settings is the play kitchen. Small children constantly observe adults cooking and cleaning with appliances and tools that look like lots of fun. They will love having their own set of appliances and tools so they can feel just like the grown-ups.
Wooden play kitchens from Wood Designs include everything you need to give your students a fully-furnished cooking space right inside the classroom. The appliances come with realistic graphics and features so little ones can wash the dishes or adjust the settings on the oven. They can be purchased as individual pieces or a full set.
Playing house isn't all about preparing meals, a realistic house setting also needs to be cleaned on a regular basis. When you furnish the dramatic play area of the classroom with a laundry center and housekeeping station, you reinforce the values of cleanliness and personal responsibility. Because many little children like to play with dolls and stuffed animals, a doll carriage and high chair will make great additions as well.
Pretend play scenarios don't have to involve realistic items and role plays, children can use their imaginations to come up with anything they want. In order to encourage creative and original ideas, you can stock the classroom with a selection of animal puppets and a dress-up center. Our puppet theater offers the perfect venue for children who want to put on a show or just play around. Props and accessories can be stored on the inside shelves, while the puppets can be organized in a puppet holder so they won't get thrown around and damaged. When little ones are looking around the room for something to do, prominently-displayed puppets will entice them into a fun and creative activity.
All of our pretend play items feature safe and healthy construction for hours of worry-free play and exploration. With no-pinch door hinges and no-tip construction, you can feel free to let even the youngest toddlers in your daycare center explore freely. Rounded corners and edges prevent scratches and snags. All Wood Designs kids play furniture is constructed from 100% Birch Plywood with eco-friendly finishes.
Mirrors are great to have in an early-childhood setting because they encourage little ones to explore their reflections. Kids mirrors help young children develop an awareness of their body movements and improve self image. If they walk by the mirror and see that their faces are dirty, they can take initiative and clean themselves off. Our mirrors come in a selection of shapes including fun dinosaurs and flowers.
A classroom full of learning centers will have lots of small accessories and toys. You can encourage your students to clean up after themselves and take responsibility by organizing the room in a clear way. Toy boxes offer an easy place to keep large toys. Little ones can easily pick up stuffed animals and other big items and put them away without the need for assistance from an adult.
Having a great start helps children develop appropriately throughout their lives. At Hertz Furniture, we understand what a difference it makes when children come into a classroom that is well-furnished with exciting pretend play items. Our play kitchen sets, mirrors and kids play furniture are sure to set your preschool or daycare apart and make young learners feel comfortable.

Washington man shot in Cecil
A Washington man, Richard Reed, was shot twice July 13 as he drove along Raven Drive in Hendersonville, Cecil Township police Chief Shawn Bukovinsky said.
Police were called to Canonsburg General Hospital at 10:05 p.m. for a report of a victim with gunshot wounds.
When police arrived Reed said he received a call at about 7:30 p.m. July 13 , from an unidentified man who told Reed to go to an address on Raven Drive, police said.
Once at the address, Reed told police he heard loud yelling coming from the house before he heard a shotgun blast and felt pellets strike his chest.
Reed's brother, Damon Reed, told police he was also in the vehicle and saw a light-skinned black male shot at his brother.
The brothers drove to the end of the street before determining it was a dead end, turned around and when Richard Reed drove past the house again, the same person shot at him with the pellets striking Richard Reed in the face. He then drove to the hospital where personnel called police.
A spokeswoman from Canonsburg General Hospital said he was treated and discharged from the emergency room.
Assisted by police from Peters and North Strabane townships, Cecil police arrested Tyrone Lett at his home at 28 Raven Drive at about 1 a.m. July 14, Bukovinsky said. Confiscated was a 410-gauge shotgun. Lett said he shot Richard Reed because he "didn't want any trouble," the chief said.
Lett was arraigned by District Judge Valarie Costanzo on charges of attempted homicide, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, reckless endangerment, simple assault and disorderly conduct. Lett was placed in the Washington County Jail on $200,000 bond.

While having multiple Genres does make it easier to classify bands and their diversity, as well as find artists you may like based on similar sounds and structure. It also makes it much harder to find out just how many genres are out there today, and which genre's are similar. The original Genres; Rock, Pop, Classical, Jazz, etc.
As the article states. "Rock is only slightly better than 'Play me some songs that are music."
The list of Genres has become so diluted with sub-genres. Most of which don't really make sense to begin with.

They are established to meet collective requirements of some or all Allies in the field of procurement, logistics and other forms of services, support or cooperation in any field.
Although NATO organisations and agencies are autonomous, they are required to follow the terms set out in their charters. They benefit from NATO's tax-exempt status and primarily serve the Alliance and its member states.
NATO Agencies Reform
The NATO Agencies reform is part of an ongoing NATO reform process, which is also focusing on the military command structure. The reform aims to enhance efficiency and effectiveness in the delivery of capabilities and services, to achieve greater synergy between similar functions and to increase transparency and accountability.
At the Lisbon Summit in November 2010, NATO Heads of State and Government agreed to reform the 14 existing NATO Agencies, located in seven member states. In particular, Allies agreed to streamline the agencies into three major programmatic themes: procurement, support and communications and information.
At the beginning of July 2012, the first major milestone in the reform process was reached, when four new organisations were established taking over the functions and responsibilities of NATO bodies.
The reform will be completed in three major phases between July 2012 and end-2014.
- A consolidation phase, where current elements are combined under a single responsibility and executive functions are consolidated;
- A rationalisation phase, where some support structures are closed down; and
- A optimisation phase, where the final goals for effectiveness, efficiency and cost savings are achieved.
NATO Communications and Information Agency
A new NATO Communications and Information Agency (NCI Agency), with a headquarters in Brussels, will provide general NATO-wide IT services, procurement and support in a number of areas such as Command and Control Systems, Tactical and Strategic Communications and Cyber Defence Systems. The Agency is led by a General Manager and overseen by a governing body of participating nations on an Agency Supervisory Board.
NATO Support Agency
A new NATO Support Agency (NSPA), with headquarters in Capellen, Luxembourg, delivers in-service support, maintenance and logistics support for weapons systems, while also providing operational logistics and other services for nations and the Alliance as a whole. The NSPA is headed by a General Manager and governed by an Agency Supervisory Board representing participating nations.
NATO Procurement OrganisationA NATO Procurement organisation has also been created with the aim of providing a framework for end-to-end management of multinational armaments acquisition programmes, such as Smart Defence projects, new major programmes or elements of existing procurement programmes.
The Organisation will draw from the experience of current multinational procurement agencies such as the NATO Eurofighter and Tornado Management Agency (NETMA), NATO Helicopter Management Agency (NAHEMA), NATO Alliance Ground Surveillance Management Agency (NAGSMA), NATO Medium Extended Air Defense System Management Agency (NAMEADSMA), and NATO Airborne Early Warning Programme Management Agency (NAPMA), which will continue to exist until the Agency's mission is fulfilled or participating nations decide to integrate into the new Organisation.
NATO Science and Technology Organisation
Along side the new agencies, the NATO Science and Technology Organisation has been stood up including a Programme Office for Collaborative Science and Technology and a Centre for Maritime Research and Experimentation.
The STO is headed by a Chief Scientist, based in Brussels, who serves as a NATO-wide senior scientific adviser.
The current NATO Standardization Agency will continue and be reviewed by spring 2014.

The bulletin of Atlanta University

NUMBER 140 ATLANTA, GEORGIA NOVEMBER, 1903 For statement of the work of Atlanta University see last page. TRUE OF NEGROES AS OF OTHER STUDENTS It is curious how reluctant many people are to apply to Negro students the educational philosophy which has been amply verified in the case of white students. Much of the objection to the higher education of the Negro would disappear if the truth of a recent sermon by President Hyde of Bowdoin College were conceded to have a universal application. Preaching from the text in Mark: "So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed upon the earth and should sleep and rise night and day, and the seed should spring up and grow, he knoweth not how," President Hyde said : In this parable Jesus is telling us that spiritual processes are as slow and obscure as the processes of natural growth. Psychology of late has brought a remarkable confirmation of this teaching of our Lord. This principle comes out in every sphere of life—in athletics, in education, in religion. Perhaps the best illustration of this principle is found in education. The conscious product of eight or twelve years of education, if that is all, is poor and pitiful indeed. Nine-tenths of all the student learns in school or college is speedily forgotten, and by the time he has been out six months the great bulk of it is already on the road to oblivion. Education is pre-eminently a training of the mind. The value of it is not what you carry in your memory at any moment. It is the power you have to analyze logically and to solve correctly any ordinary problem of science, history, literature, politics, business or philosophy. Education is not so much knowledge as it is the key to knowledge. NOTABLE DEFENCES OF NEGRO SUFFRAGE It has become very common in these days to denounce Negro suffrage as a mistake and a failure, and many people are adopting this opinion with very little knowledge of the historical facts that bear upon the question. It is no small service, therefore, when these facts are set forth in a way to enable any candid person to judge the issue for himself. This service has just been rendered in a little pamphet entitled "Why the Negro was Enfranchised," by Mr. Richard P. Hallowell of Boston. Mr. Hallowell goes back to the records of the Reconstruction period in Congress and the provisional State legislatures to show the unavoidable necessity of conferring the suffrage upon the emancipated slaves for their protection against a virtual return to slavery through the "va,grancy" legislation already attempted in some of the states. But the specially illuminating part of his pamphlet is that relating to the Reconstruction history of South Carolina, the state which, more than all others perhaps, is commonly held up as a signal illustration of the failure of Negro suffrage. Here it is clearly shown that the responsibility for the evils incurred was largely that of the better element of white people who failed to use their opportunity for controlling the situation, and that, bad as it confessedly was, the condition of things was steadily improving under the administration of Governor Chamberlain up to the time of the political revolution of 1876. The facts and figures cited In support of these statements are extremely interesting and convincing, and no one who desires to understand this matter thoroughly should fail to read Mr. Hal-lowell's pamphlet. Another pamphlet on this subject is entitled "Negro Suffrage is not a Failure," by Mr. Moorfield Storey of Boston. It is more in the line of a direct reply to the assertions of such men as Secretary Root and Dr. Lyman Abbott. Mr. Storey shows how Reconstruction without Negro suffrage was actually tried for two years after the close of the civil war and how surely that experiment was leading to the virtual reen-slavement of the Negro and the loss of the richest fruit of the war. The plea of Dr. Abbott that the Negroes should have been required to get an education before being allowed to protect themselves with the ballot is neatly answered by a quotation from Dr. Abbott's own utterance in 1896 when he answered a similar plea of Carlyle's as follows: "Freedom .... assumes not that every man can safely govern himself, but first that it is safer to leave every man to govern himself than to put any man under the government of any other class; and secondly that there is such potentiality of self-governing power in every man, such capacity to learn by his blunders, that he will acquire a wisdom and a restraint through the very perils of self-government which he will never acquire under the protecting government of others wiser and better than himself." Mr. Storey goes on to claim for Negro suffrage a conspicuous success down to the time of its annulment in 1876 by the revolutionary governments of the Southern states. He cites as proof the marvellous progress of the Negroes which genuine freedom, secured by the ballot, rendered possible, and he might well have cited also the establishment of the Negro public school system which owes its existence to the governments maintained by Negro suffrage. The corruption under Negro suffrage in some of the states no more indicates the failure of Negro suffrage than corruption in Rhode Island or Delaware, New York City or Philadelphia indicates the failure of white suffrage. And, finally, Mr. Storey claims that in the Southern states since 1876 Negro suffrage has not been tried and therefore has not failed. A third pamphlet consists of an address by Hon. Albert E. Pillsbury of Boston on "The Disfranchisement of the Negro." Mr. Pillsbury, speaking in Faneuil Hall, utters a ringing protest against the disfranchisement of the Negro, not so much in the interest of the Negro as in the interest of the nation. "There are some of us, at least," he says, "who understand that until every black man's rights are secure, no white man's rights are safe." Mr. Pillsbury refers briefly to the fatal concession that was made to slavery in the Constitution in allowing three-fifths of all the slaves to be counted in the basis of representation, then outlines the successive amendments to the Constitution in the Reconstruction period and their subsequent virtual annulment by the South in a way to give the white people of that section a degree of power in national affairs far more disproportionate than in the days of slavery. In closing, he quotes most effectively an utterance of Abraham Lincoln in 1857: "In your greedy chase to make profit of the Negro, beware lest you cancel and tear to pieces the white man's charter of freedom." We heartily commend each of these three pamphlets to all who would thoroughly understand this important question. They are all of them issued from the press of the George H. Ellis Co. of Boston.

Pink Druzy Cuff Bracelet
Material List
- Bead Landing™ Color Pop™ Pendant – Hot Pink Druzy Crystal
- Bead Landing™ Cuff Bracelet – Silver
- Bead Landing™ Leather Cording – Black
- E-6000® Glue
- Wire Cutters
Project Instructions
Step 1 Gather the Color Pop™ hot pink Druzy crystal pendant and your wire cutters. Cut the hanging loop on the pendant on one side to sever the loop. Repeat on the other side of the loop, removing the loop from the pendant so you have a solid piece.
Step 2 Gather the Bead Landing™ silver cuff bracelet and the Bead Landing™ black leather cording. Measure the cording along the cuff of the bracelet under the flat top piece and trim. Do this again so that you have two strips of leather to cover the two silver metal cuffs.
Step 3 Apply a thin line of E-6000® glue to both sides of the wire cuff. Cover this glue with each strand of black leather so that no silver metal is showing. Let dry.
Step 4 Gather the pendant from Step 1 and the bracelet from Step 3. Apply E-6000® glue to the top, flat section of the cuff bracelet. Add the pendant on top of this glue and press firmly. Let dry.

These Pet Rescue level 175 cheats and tips will help you beat level 175 of Pet Rescue Saga! Stuck on Pet Rescue Saga Level 175? Look no further – try these cheats, tips, and strategy to get you past level 175 of Pet Rescue.
Pet Rescue Level 175 Cheats
Stay tuned for the full walkthrough with screenshots and detailed instructions to beat this challenging Pet Rescue Saga level. If you are still stuck after watching the video above, try following the tips below. These general tips are great for beating any level of Pet Rescue Saga.
- Use your Rocket Boost wisely. This is a free booster that is available in most levels. It recharges quickly and can be used multiple times so remember to use it when it is up.
- The more blocks you clear at once, the more points you will be rewarded. On levels with a high score requirement, try to clear large sections of color at once.
- Avoid isolating single blocks. These can prevent you from creating a path to rescue pets and may cause you to fail when you need to clear a certain percentage of blocks.
- If your pets are stuck in carriers, you should break them out sooner rather than later. When pets are released from carriers, they will go to the top of the column. If you get a carrier close to the bottom and then release the pet, you are just making more work for yourself since you will have to get the pet all the way down the column again.
- Pets on top of the highest column will be lost if you do not clear some blocks below them. Be careful where your pets are after each turn.
- Before you make your first turn, you can reset any board you do not like. Simply exit the level and re-open it. You will get a fresh board without losing any lives.
- If you run out of lives, gain a fresh set of lives without paying money by changing your clock 5 hours forward. Open Pet Saga and confirm that you have 5 lives again and then change your clock backwards.

Calgary Home Lottery
Quick, before the Christmas bills roll in: commit to making at least one memorable trip in 2012. Something to look forward to during the bleak days of...
There is no nationwide advisory in effect for Guatemala. However, you should exercise a high degree of caution due to the violence, roadblocks, strikes and demonstrations that occur periodically throughout the country.
The decision to travel is your responsibility. You are also responsible for your personal safety abroad. The purpose of this Travel Advice is to provide up-to-date information to enable you to make well-informed decisions.
In south-eastern districts close to the borders with El Salvador and Honduras, and in northern districts along the border with Mexico, drug-related violence has led to a number of armed attacks. Violence related to drug trafficking has also been reported in the capital, Guatemala City, as well as in other major cities in the country. Foreigners and tourists are not usually targeted but you should nonetheless always remain vigilant.
Military and police forces, deployed along the border with Mexico to combat organized crime and improve security conditions, are conducting random vehicle searches.
Guatemala has one of the highest rates of violent crime in Latin America, but a very low arrest and detention rate. Most incidents are drug- and gang-related and occur in and around Guatemala City and in rural areas. The border with Mexico also presents risks due to drug smuggling and illegal immigration. Handguns and other small arms are very common. Criminals often operate in groups. Foreigners are often targets of robbery, carjacking, armed assault, sexual assault and rape. Crime levels tend to increase during the holiday seasons.
Always be aware of your surroundings. Do not display signs of affluence, especially in airports. Avoid travelling alone (especially late at night) and avoid low-cost hotels with poor security. Ensure that your personal belongings, passports and other travel documents are secure at all times. Carry only a copy of the identification page of your passport and sufficient funds for the day. Exercise extreme caution when using automated banking machines (ABMs). If you are threatened by robbers, stay calm and do not resist. Injuries or death have occurred when victims have resisted.
Be vigilant, especially in large cities. Avoid walking after dark. Never display laptop computers, mobile phones or other electronic devices.
Vigilante justice has increased in rural areas, resulting in lynchings of suspected child kidnappers and other delinquents. Avoid large crowds and gatherings because of the potential for violence. Maintain a high level of personal security awareness at all times.
Demonstrations occur and have the potential to suddenly turn violent. They can lead to significant disruptions to traffic and public transportation. Avoid all demonstrations and large gatherings, follow the advice of local authorities and monitor local media.
Only undertake intercity travel by car during daylight hours, preferably in a convoy of two or more vehicles.
Secondary streets and rural roads are poorly lit. Local motorists rarely obey traffic laws. Steep, winding mountain roads and lack of road signs present additional dangers.
The Inter-American (or Pan-American) Highway (CA-1) and the road from Guatemala City to the Atlantic Ocean are dangerous because of heavy traffic. Off-road travel in the remote highlands should be undertaken only after seeking advice from the Embassy of Canada in Guatemala City.
Avoid travelling on the isolated small dirt roads near Lake Atitlán. The safest route to Lake Atitlán is via the Inter-American Highway and Sololá, although this is where most disturbances occur. Avoid travelling on the road from Godinez to Panajachel as it is dangerous and rarely patrolled by police. Armed robberies against vehicles with foreign licence plates have occurred on the Pacific Coast Highway (CA-2) and the Atlantic Highway (CA-9).
Roadblocks, which can cause major traffic disruptions, have been reported along roads leading to and from airports. Do not attempt to pass through a roadblock, even if it appears unattended. Stay alert to new developments through local media reports and amend your travel arrangements accordingly.
Roadblocks erected by armed gangs are common, particularly in the northern and western departments of San Marcos, Huehuetenango, Quiché, Alta Verapaz, Petén and Escuintla. Criminals have been known to pose as police officers. Comply and do not resist if attacked. Always drive with car windows closed and doors locked.
Allow enough time for border formalities so that you can arrive in a major town before dark. Many border posts close for lunch and at dusk. Avoid exchanging money at border crossings unless absolutely necessary as doing so has sometimes resulted in armed robbery.
Local and intercity public buses are not safe. Problems include mechanical unreliability, the use of unlicensed drivers, frequent major road accidents and crime on board. Pickpocketing and armed robbery are daily occurrences.
Public buses are frequently targeted by gangs who hurl grenades or fire shots as a way of ensuring compliance to extortion demands or to settle accounts. Drivers have been the targets of violence, including murder. Passengers have been subject to armed robbery, sometimes by fellow passengers.
Do not travel on local public buses ("chicken buses"). Tourist shuttles travelling between popular destinations have been targeted by hijackers in the past.
Only travel on intercity buses during daylight hours and with reliable tour companies, as fraud has occurred.
Ensure that transportation and tour providers are reputable and reliable before booking. The government tourist assistance service PROATUR or hotel staff can provide you with advice on the safest companies. In Guatemala City, only use official taxis and make detailed arrangements for the return trip. Advice on reliable taxi companies may be obtained by inquiring with PROATUR or hotel staff.
Consult our Transportation Safety page in order to verify if national airlines meet safety standards.
Tourists may obtain up-to-date security information through INGUAT (service available in English), the Guatemalan Tourism Institute. INGUAT's telephone numbers for tourist assistance (ASISTUR) are (502) 2421-2810 and (502) 5578-9836. You may also dial 1500 within Guatemala. Tourist groups may also request security escorts and obtain emergency assistance through INGUAT.
When visiting volcanoes and other tourist sites, you should travel in groups and with a reputable tour company. Sexual assaults and robberies can occur, especially when security personnel normally deployed on these sites are absent. Travellers should stay informed of security conditions in the areas they plan to visit.
Do not approach or photograph children and women, since many people in Guatemala fear that children are being kidnapped for adoption or for theft of vital organs. Violent incidents involving foreigners have occurred.
Cruise-ship passengers who book a tour or make other travel arrangements should ensure that the company is recognized by the cruise line. Confirm your itinerary with the ship and port authority as well as with INGUAT, the Guatemalan Tourism Institute, and PROATUR.
Exercise caution when swimming off the Pacific coast, and seek information about water conditions such as strong currents, riptides and undertow. Avoid deserted and unpatrolled beaches after dark.
Dial 110 or 120 for police, 122 or 123 for the fire department and ambulance services. It may be difficult to obtain police assistance. Police forces lack resources and are often corrupt. National police officers do not speak English. PROATUR officers are able to provide assistance in English.
It is the sole prerogative of each country or region to determine who is allowed to enter. Canadian consular officials cannot intervene on your behalf if you do not meet entry requirements. The following information on entry and exit requirements has been obtained from the Guatemalan authorities. However, these requirements are subject to change at any time. It is your responsibility to check with the Embassy of the Republic of Guatemala or one of its consulates for up-to-date information.
Official (special and diplomatic) passport holders must consult the Official Travel page, as they may be subject to different entry requirements.
Canadians must present a passport to visit Guatemala, which must be valid until the expected departure date from that country. Before you leave, ask your transportation company about its requirements related to passport validity, which may be more stringent than the country's entry rules.
Tourist visa: Not required
Business visa: Required
Student visa: Required
Ensure that your passport is stamped on entry. When entering Guatemala by land or sea, you may have to seek out the immigration official to stamp your passport. Those who fail to present a stamped passport on departure from Guatemala will incur delays and fines.
Canadians intending to conduct business in Guatemala or wishing to stay in Guatemala for a period exceeding six months require a visa.
An airport departure tax (which may be included in the price of the plane ticket) and a security tax of US$3 are charged upon departure and are payable in cash only.
Under the terms of the Central America-4 Border Control Agreement (C-4), Canadian tourists may travel within any of the C-4 countries – Honduras, Nicaragua, El Salvador and Guatemala – for a period of up to 90 days, without completing entry and exit formalities at border immigration checkpoints. This period begins at the first point of entry to any of the C-4 countries. Travellers who exceed the 90-day limit can expect to pay a fine. An extension of up to 90 days is permitted once a year. You must request this extension and pay the required fee at Guatemala's Immigration headquarters before the initial 90 day-limit expires. The length of the extension is at the discretion of the Immigration authorities.
Children need special documentation to visit certain countries. Please consult our Children page for more information.
Some countries require proof of yellow fever vaccination before allowing entry. Consult the World Health Organization's country list to obtain information on this country's requirements.
Be sure that your routine vaccines are up-to-date regardless of your travel destination.
You may be at risk for these vaccine-preventable diseases while travelling in this country. Talk to your travel health provider about which ones are right for you.
Hepatitis A is a disease of the liver spread by contaminated food or water. All those travelling to regions with a risk of hepatitis A infection should get vaccinated.
Hepatitis B is a disease of the liver spread through blood or other bodily fluids. Travellers who may be exposed (e.g., through sexual contact, medical treatment or occupational exposure) should get vaccinated.
Seasonal influenza occurs worldwide. The flu season usually runs from November to April in the northern hemisphere, between April and October in the southern hemisphere and year round in the tropics. Influenza (flu) is caused by a virus spread from person to person when they cough or sneeze or through personal contact with unwashed hands. Get the flu shot.
Measles occurs worldwide but is a common disease in developing countries, particularly in parts of Africa and Asia. Measles is a highly contagious disease. Be sure your vaccination against measles is up-to-date regardless of the travel destination.
Rabies is a disease that attacks the central nervous system spread to humans through a bite, scratch or lick from a rabid animal. Vaccination should be considered for travellers going to areas where rabies exists and who have a high risk of exposure (i.e., close contact with animals, occupational risk, and children).
Typhoid is a bacterial infection spread by contaminated food or water. Risk is higher among travellers going to rural areas, visiting friends and relatives, or with weakened immune systems. Travellers visiting regions with typhoid risk, especially those exposed to places with poor sanitation should consider getting vaccinated.
Yellow fever is a disease caused by the bite of an infected mosquito.
Travellers get vaccinated either because it is required to enter a country or because it is recommended for their protection.
|* It is important to note that country entry requirements may not reflect your risk of yellow fever at your destination. It is recommended that you contact the nearest diplomatic or consular office of the destination(s) you will be visiting to verify any additional entry requirements.
|Country Entry Requirement*
Travellers to any destination in the world can develop travellers' diarrhea from consuming contaminated water or food.
In some areas in Central America and Mexico, food and water can also carry diseases like cholera, hepatitis A and typhoid. Practise safe food and water precautions while travelling in Central America and Mexico. Remember: Boil it, cook it, peel it, or leave it!
In some areas in Central America and Mexico, certain insects carry and spread diseases like American trypanosomiasis (Chagas disease), dengue fever, leishmaniasis, malaria, onchocerciasis (river blindness), and West Nile virus.
Travellers are advised to take precautions against bites.
Travellers are cautioned to avoid contact with animals, including dogs, monkeys, snakes, rodents, birds, and bats. Some infections found in Central America and Mexico, like rabies, can be shared between humans and animals.
Crowded conditions can increase your risk of certain illnesses. Remember to wash your hands often and practice proper cough and sneeze etiquette to avoid colds, the flu and other illnesses.
Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and HIV are spread through blood and bodily fluids; practise safer sex.
Private hospitals and clinics in urban areas offer equivalent care to those in Canada and are much better staffed and equipped than public or rural facilities.
Physicians and hospitals often expect immediate cash payment for medical care.
The decision to travel is the sole responsibility of the traveller. The traveller is also responsible for his or her own personal safety.
Be prepared. Do not expect medical services to be the same as in Canada. Pack a travel health kit, especially if you will be travelling away from major city centres.
You are subject to local laws. Consult our Arrest and Detention page for more information.
Penalties for possession, use or trafficking of illegal drugs are strict. Convicted offenders can expect extended jail sentences.
Importation into or export from Guatemala of items such as antiquities and artefacts may be subject to strict regulations. Contact the Embassy of Guatemala in Canada for information and advice.
People found driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs are subject to arrest and detention.
If you are travelling with a vehicle, you must comply with the deadline for leaving the country indicated on the temporary importation form provided by Guatemalan customs at the port of entry. If you fail to leave Guatemala with your vehicle by the expiry date, you will have to pay taxes.
If you are involved in a driving accident that results in injury or death, you may be taken into custody until responsibility for the accident is determined.
An International Driving Permit is recommended.
The currency is the Guatemalan quetzal (GTQ). It is not possible to exchange Canadian dollars (cash or traveller's cheques) in Guatemala. U.S. currency and traveller's cheques are readily convertible to local funds at most major banks. Do not accept torn notes as they can be difficult to exchange. Credit cards are widely accepted. Do not exchange large amounts of currency with informal money changers. Some automated banking machines (ABMs) will accept Canadian debit cards with a four-digit personal identification number.
Forest fires often occur from November to June. Even though they can happen anywhere, they usually affect the department of Peten. In the event of a major fire, you should follow the instructions of local emergency services, particularly with regard to evacuation procedures. Monitor local media for updated information.
The hurricane season extends from June to the end of November. The National Hurricane Center provides additional information on weather conditions. Stay informed of regional weather forecasts, and follow the advice and instructions of local authorities.
The rainy season extends from mid-May to mid-November. Flash floods and mudslides are common occurrences, causing temporary road closures. You should keep informed of regional weather forecasts and plan accordingly.
Guatemala is located in an active seismic zone. Familiarize yourself with earthquake security measures in hotels and public and private buildings, and follow the advice of local authorities in the event of an earthquake.
The Fuego, Pacaya and Santiaguito volcanoes present consistently moderate activity which is considered to be within normal parameters. Monitor levels of volcanic activity through the local media and amend travel arrangements accordingly. Hiking on volcanoes should be done only with a reputable tour company that tracks volcanic activity. Follow the advice of local authorities in the event of an explosion or eruption.
