We are thinking of planning a trip to Antigua and Lake Atitlan in March 2013 and I have been trying to find out the current condition of the water at the lake.
There doesn't seem to be anything up-to-date on google about the cyanobacteria outbreak in recent years so I thought I'd put the question out to anyone who lives in the area or has visited recently.
We are not necessarily planning on swimming in it (it would be freezing to us as we live in Florida !) but we would want to kayak and take boat trips etc and I am very keen on landscape photography so I guess if it looks bad that might be something I would want to take into account.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks very much.
Lake Atitlan - what is the current state of Cyanobacteria in the lake?

I guess I'll chime in since no one else is. I haven't been there since July but enjoy the lake every summer. I don't choose to swim but love to hike and take photos. My photo collections are below in case you'd like to check them out.
Happy trails!
Report Abuse
There are some technical papers available on the web; however, with continued raw sewage and runoff from chemical fertilizers (put on coffee, etc. fields)being put directly into the lake, it seems to be continuing to die.
Very sad. Here's a paper that's fairly general and cuts to the chase: eliminate all effluents into the lake, change the nature of the basin that drains into the lake (no drainage from phosphate soaps, fertilizers, sewage allowed into the lake), building of water/sewage treatment plants, and isolation of the blooms.
But probably won't happen.

Kris Jenner sat down with Ross Matthews and touched on a number of issues.
First, she labeled Khloe Kardashian as a strong and sensitive.
Then, she gushed and gushed and gushed over quasi son-in-law Kanye West.
"I love him so much, and he's such an amazing boyfriend to Kim and a great dad and a wonderful person," Kris said.
And she wasn't done praising the rapper, either.

Tebowmania heads to Mission Bay, where the Chargers are drowning. They have lost five in a row, with their last victory coming at Denver, where Tim Tebow nearly rallied the Broncos to victory.
Tebow is 4-1 since supplanting Kyle Orton as Denver's starter, with three fourth-quarter comebacks.
"I obviously feel pretty comfortable with them. I played against them one and a half times (including last season), so that's the most I've played against any team," Tebow said. "I feel like I'll be able to know them pretty well."
Chicago (7-3) at Oakland (6-4)
A marquee matchup even though Bears QB Jay Cutler is out with a broken right thumb that could sideline him the rest of the way. So Caleb Hanie, who acquitted himself well in a relief stint in the NFC title game loss to Green Bay in January, takes over.
Hanie has a strong running game thanks to Matt Forte and an improving offensive line to support him. Chicago also has dynamic special teams and a defense as stingy as any in the NFL — outside of the Bay Area (meaning the 49ers, not the Raiders).
Oakland is hoping to get back star runner Darren McFadden (right foot), but Michael Bush has done just fine in his place with two straight 100-yard games.
Pittsburgh (7-3) at Kansas City (4-6)
Don't look for Kyle Orton, claimed on waivers by the Chiefs, to get much action this week. Tyler Palko, who played college ball in Pittsburgh and once was with the Steelers, gets the call at quarterback again. He didn't do much in a lopsided loss at New England on Monday night and needs Jackie Battle to get the running game off to a quick start.
That's hardly easy against this version of the Steel Curtain, which ranks second in overall defense and comes off a bye.
Houston (7-3) at Jacksonville (3-7)
Another quarterbacking change takes place in Houston, which also comes off a bye and must replace Matt Schaub, sidelined for the rest of the season with a right foot problem. Matt Leinart gets the call in what could be his final chance to prove he has the goods for the NFL.
Like Hanie, Leinart has plenty of help around him in RBs Arian Foster and Ben Tate, plus a solid defense. Star receiver Andre Johnson looks set to return after a six-week absence with a hamstring issue.
The Jags are good defensively, but other than Maurice Jones-Drew, they don't threaten offensively.
Minnesota (2-8) at Atlanta (6-4)
With Adrian Peterson likely to miss the game with a high left ankle sprain, the Vikings will be severely undermanned against a Falcons squad in the thick of the NFC wild-card chase. Minnesota has won four of its last five visits to the Georgia Dome, where the Falcons need to prosper the rest of the way to make the postseason.
Atlanta has its own injury issues and hopes rookie WR Julio Jones recovers from a right hamstring problem. But the Falcons won without him last week against the Titans, a more difficult foe than the Vikings.
Carolina (2-8) at Indianapolis (0-10)
OK, this might be it. With New England, Baltimore, Tennessee, Houston and Jacksonville — which just won at Indianapolis — on their radar, the Colts' best shot to avoid 0-16 ignominy could be in this one.
To get that win, though, the Colts must slow the No. 5 overall offense, led by dynamic rookie QB Cam Newton and revitalized wideout Steve Smith.
"We're not really in a position to judge anybody's record," Panthers tight end Greg Olsen said. "When you're 2-8, at that point we're all just kind of in the same boat. We're just looking to win. I'm sure they're looking at us the same way, saying this is great opportunity for us to right the ship."

PURCELL -- It isn't always the way law officers suggest it be handled, but sometimes the victim can make things rough on those who rob them.
There were two such incidents recently in Purcell, as the Purcell Register reports.
Victims turn aggressive toward robbers
PURCELL -- It isn't always the way law officers suggest it be handled, but sometimes the victim can make things rough on those who rob them.
In one, a man armed with a knife tried to rob another man who was washing his pickup at a car wash.
The police report said the assailant first asked for money, then pulled a knife.
What followed was a bit of a surprise to the robber.
In a second incident, a thief took a smart phone out of a store and the clerk followed him.
When the clerk saw the security cord still attached to the phone hanging from the man's pants, the clerk took action.
See how these incidents turned out.

Matt Smith: Fancy a hug?
It's always fun to take a look behind the scenes on a Doctor Who shoot, not least because there are usually a few explosions, some outlandish sets and actors in strange costumes, with difficult dialogue to deliver, trying to find the emotional core of a character that has been rendered in plastic, rubber and computer-graphics.
This clip, however, is a very different affair. It's the "The Time of the Doctor" behind the lens special, and amid the wooden Cyberman who is actually a woman, and the Whovian past of Clara's gran, we see Matt Smith breaking down in tears as he delivers his final lines as the Doctor for the very first time. And again later on, after filming has wrapped.
Assuming you've already seen "The Time of the Doctor," you'll want to watch the whole thing, of course:

CMS Inspection of Parkland 'Ongoing'; Civil Suit Pending
An investigation of Cornell's death by the Dallas Morning News caught the attention of CMS, which found numerous patient safety violations upon inspection and led to Parkland's systems improvement agreement, an action CMS reserves for hospitals with the most egregious errors.
The SIA required a third party to be onsite while Parkland's corrective action plan was being implemented. It's the only way the hospital was able to continue receiving Medicare reimbursements, which is still at stake until CMS agrees that Parkland has sufficiently improved.
The hospital has been preparing for the CMS inspection for 18 months. By April, the hospital proclaimed it was ready for CMS surveyors. They had said they'd be onsite by April 30, but then changed course. Instead, CMS inspectors showed up June 17, but left after only five days on June 21, without finishing their inspection.
David Wright, deputy regional administrator for CMS, did not say why surveyors left mid-inspection, only that they will return.
"The survey is still ongoing," says Wright. "Surveys always include both onsite and offsite reviews of information, and we can go back at any time, which allows us to have a more comprehensive sample in terms of both time and findings."

Team New Zealand boss Grant Dalton isn't biting on suggestions by his rival Sir Russell Coutts that the Kiwis won't make the America's Cup final.
TNZ launched their second catamaran in Auckland yesterday with the new generation AC72 carrying the hopes of the nation as they try to wrestle back sport's oldest trophy from Coutts' Oracle outfit.
But first TNZ must get past Italy's Luna Rossa and Swedish syndicate Artemis Racing to win the Louis Vuitton Cup, starting in July, and earn the right to challenge for the America's Cup in September.
Coutts clearly can't see that happening, saying he doesn't expect to be confronting the Kiwis for yachting's biggest piece of silverware.
"We haven't yet seen the second boat of Artemis and I wouldn't write Artemis off right now. It looks to me they will come out strong with the changes they recently made in their organisation. I, certainly, am not thinking we will be facing Team New Zealand," Coutts told a Spanish sailing website.
That was water off the bow to Dalton who suggested there were so many uncertainties over the radical new catamarans that it remained wide open.
He likes where his team is sitting, saying they had made "subtle but dramatic" changes to their new design off the original AC72.
"But we remain incredibly nervous ... no one knows," Dalton said, saying so much would come down to a battle of the designers.
"It's a matter of whose back room guys have understood it and mastered the numbers best."
While TNZ and Prada have similar cats - Prada has an identical first generation TNZ boat under their sharing agreement - Oracle and Artemis have gone on different tacks.
Dalton said it would be interesting to see whether the changes in the looming second boats from Artermis and Oracle would "come close to us or move further away".
He said what they had learned of Artemis' new wingsail suggested they were moving more towards New Zealand in that key area while sightings of Oracle's new hulls pointed to the Americans shifting further away with their latest design.
TNZ have tweaked the shape of their bows, the wingsail and the foils. A lot of work has gone into aerodynamics.
While the advantages of high-speed foiling on such a tight course remains contentious, Dalton believes they had made gains in their latest foil designs to enhance their gybing abilities.
More than 60,000 hours had gone into the design of the latest boat along with 50,000 hours of design work.
High winds yesterday prevented TNZ getting the cat in the water after a blessing by the Ngati Whatua tribe and the champagne launch by Mandy Barker, wife of skipper Dean Barker, who christened the boat New Zealand Aotearoa.
As the massive cat sat in her cradles, Dalton promised that the development wouldn't stop. They would continue to advance the boat because that was what the circumstances demanded of this venture into the unknown.
TNZ now have 45 days of sailing allowed before May 1 under Cup rules.
But the reality is their time is far shorter than that.
They will sail in Auckland till around the second week of April before their entire base is packed up and shipped to San Francisco on April 28.
Dalton said their computer numbers pointed to gains with the second boat and now it was a matter of finding that out on the water.
They hoped to have their first day on the Waitemata Harbour on Thursday.
Having successfully got through their 30 days of trials on their original boat and now launched their second design, TNZ look well-placed. But Dalton scoffed at suggestions they were out in front.
"We're not way ahead. We're going to lose five weeks with shipping everything to San Francisco," he said.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. | The Alabama-Tennessee baseball game scheduled for Friday at Lindsey Nelson Stadium in Knoxville was rained out. The original 6 p.m. start time was delayed for an hour and a half due to the threat of tornadoes in the east Tennessee area Friday afternoon and evening.

Alabama and Tennessee will play a doubleheader today at 1 p.m. and 6 p.m. The second game will be televised live by SportSouth.

That is, both bands will set up their equipment onstage next to each other and then trade off playing throughout the show. One band will play a few songs, and then the other will take over. Yeasayer will open both dates.
Listen: DOOM and Ghostface Team Up
By Tom Breihan on July 11, 2011 at 11:20 a.m. EDT
Ghostface Killah and DOOM, two East Coast rap veterans with well-known comic book fixations and deep writerly powers, have a whole lot in common. In the past, they've teamed up a few times, with DOOM producing tracks on Ghost's Fishscale and Ghost turning in guest appearances on DOOM projects like The Mouse and the Mask and Born Like This. A full-length collaboration between both guys has supposedly been in the works for a long time-- they posed for the cover of Mass Appeal magazine together in 2005-- but these two keep their own eccentric schedules, and many of us just assumed that project had disappeared into the abandoned-rap-album ether. But now we've got a new track from the two artists, credited to DoomStarks. Maybe it'll turn out to be a harbinger of something more.

Last month, we reported that Odd Future main man Tyler, the Creator and Clipse MC Pusha-T linked for a Neptunes-produced collaboration called "Trouble on My Mind". That song is now out in the world. And it is hard as fuck. The finished product will reportedly appear on a future Pusha solo EP called Fear of God 2: Let Us Pray.
Listen to "Trouble on My Mind" at Red Bull, where a video for the track will debut next week as well.
Ghostface Works With Action Bronson, Gets Sued
By Tom Breihan on July 8, 2011 at 2:10 p.m. EDT
Earlier this year, New York rapper Action Bronson released his excellent debut album, Dr. Lecter, a fun romp through New York rap signifiers that, at times, felt like an extended tribute to Ghostface Killah. Bronson is by no means a ripoff artist, but the timbre and urgency of his delivery could sound very similar to those of the Staten Island originator. Well, Ghost and Bronson have now appeared on a track together, and it turns out to be pretty easy to tell the two apart. The track in question is "Meteor Hammer", which also features a pretty showing from the Boston MC Termanology. Listen to it at Nah Right.

But it's still a lot of fun to see these crusty old bastards running around together-- clinking champagne glasses, hugging on blond chicks, and generally mugging for the camera.

Noel Gallagher Announces Two Solo Albums

Nearly two years ago, Oasis split acrimoniously. Since that time, co-leader and principal songwriter Noel Gallagher has remained largely silent while brother Liam has started Beady Eye, essentially a Noel-free version of Oasis. This morning at a press conference in London, Noel announced his own plans: two new solo albums, the first of which is called Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds and will see release October 17 in the UK via Noel's own Sour Mash imprint, with a U.S. release coming November 8 on Sour Mash/Mercury. (As NME points out, Liam had a predictably assholish response to his brother's announcement.)
We've got the tracklist below, as well as the video for the Noel-sung Oasis classic "Don't Look Back in Anger".
Jay-Z and Kanye West's Watch the Throne Is Up for Pre-Order
By Tom Breihan on July 4, 2011 at 2:40 p.m. EDT
Last week, rumors circulated that Watch the Throne, the planned Jay-Z/Kanye West collaborative album, would be ready in time for a surprise July 4 release. That hasn't happened. But today, the album is up for pre-order, and we know more about it-- though the release date still remains unannounced.
At this site, you can pre-order Watch the Throne in either a regular or deluxe form. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the regular version includes 10 songs, and the deluxe one comes with four extras. Producers credited on the album include Kanye, Jay-Z, Swizz Beatz, No I.D., and Lex Luger, and a song called "Lift Off" features vocals from Beyoncé and Bruno Mars. That gold-plated image above is the cover art, designed by Givenchy creative director Riccardo Tisci.

Markets: For the first time, America's good name has been downgraded. So far, the impact on bonds has been small. But the long-term consequences won't be pretty.
Back in 1992, Bill Clinton learned that U.S. credit equaled U.S. power. After wrangling with Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan, his team gained such respect for treasuries as a proxy for U.S. credibility that Clinton adviser James Carville famously declared he wanted be reincarnated as the bond market "so I can intimidate everyone."
Today, we have a president who shrugs off the first-ever downgrade of U.S. sovereign debt in the wake of Standard & Poor's downgrade from AAA to AA+, claiming that credit, like deficits, doesn't matter.
"No matter what some agency may say, we always have been and always will be a AAA country," the president declared Monday.
It was as strong a statement as any about the politics-first climate over government spending that brought on the S&P downgrade in the first place.
For Obama to say credit ratings don't matter at a time when he's made it clear that his re-election does matter pretty well sums up why this happened. But it was beside the point.
S&P's downgrade from AAA to AA+ wasn't about America's ability to pay its debt, which remains intact. The rating agency specifically said the problem was the U.S.' willingness to pay its bills.
That puts the U.S. in the same category as — we kid you not — Ecuador, which like the U.S. had plenty of money to pay its bills in 2009, but defaulted anyway because its president saw defaulting as a populist means of amassing more political power.
Nobody was surprised about Ecuador, because nations that default once are most likely to do so again.
But by extension, that's why a superstable country such as the U.S. has never been downgraded and why this downgrade is such a psychological blow.
With no recovery of the AAA rating likely soon, it might translate into a U.S. loss of power and influence. After all, the U.S. Treasury market up until now has always been the gold standard of global debt, the means by which all other debt has been measured — from nations, to mortgages, to municipalities, to corporations to credit cards. Those days are over and unlikely to return to the norm we knew as of late last Friday.
"I don't think people fully understand how long it will take to recover," Aladdin Capital's Scott B. MacDonald told IBD.
In MacDonald's "A History of Credit and Power in the Western World," co-written with Albert L. Gastmann, he concluded: "There is a direct correlation between credit and power."
IBD noted two years ago that historians have pinpointed the beginnings of U.S. power to 1811, when Alexander Hamilton's First Bank of the United States was liquidated by Congress. At the time, the bank insisted that even bondholders in Britain — a nation the U.S. was preparing to go to war with — be paid in full. The bank ignored all political pressure to stiff the British.
This single act reverberated for years. Word got back to Europe, and capital became available to develop the fledgling U.S. for more than a century because the U.S. had the willingness to honor its word, even to its enemies — real ones, not political, ones.
"The return of their funds became an important chapter in American finance because it showed that the government was willing to do business on an impartial basis, and that would influence future British investments for decades to come," wrote Charles R. Geisst in his 1979 "Wall Street: A History."
The principle remains the same according to MacDonald, who in an Aug. 5 Aladdin research note wrote that "Confidence and trust are critical in helping regain economic growth and tackling necessary structural changes. Once lost, these items become very hard to recapture."
That underlines that the S&P downgrade is not about just Treasury bond prices, but U.S. power and the entire U.S. economic recovery. Credit and credibility are impossible to separate.

Serendipity A splinter in the eye
Simon Singh
Simon Singh is an author, journalist and TV producer, specialising in science and Mathematics. His latest book is "Trick or Treatment? Alternative Medicine on Trial", co-authored with Edzard Ernst, the world's first professor of complementary medicine.
Sunday 11 July 1999
Cataracts are regions of dead cells within the lens, which turn the lens opaque, thereby blocking the light and often resulting in blindness. The Ancient Greeks were the first to operate on cateracts, using a needle to pierce the eyeball and knock the lens to one side. At the turn of the century, the operation was more or less the same, but the aim was to completely remove the murky lens. But without a replacement lens, vision was still poor, and most patients were unable to work.
Surgeons had tried to insert a replacement glass lens, but experience had shown that it was inevitably rejected. Dust or sand on the surface of the eyeball can cause enormous irritation, so it is not surprising that a foreign object inside the eyeball is problematic. However, in the 1940s one British eye-surgeon questioned the orthodoxy and proved that artificial lens implants were feasible.
Harold Ridley was born in 1906 into a medical family. His childhood memories include being bounced on the knee of Florence Nightingale. After the Second World War, he encountered several fighter pilots who had suffered eye injuries, caused by the splinters from shattered cockpit canopies. Spitfire pilots in particular seemed to suffer from canopy splinters embedded in their eyeballs. Ridley noticed to his surprise that these splinters did not cause any severe problems. They sat quietly in the eye without causing inflammation and without being rejected. The reason for this was that the canopies were made of Perspex, a material that is so inert that that the eyeball accepts it.
In 1948 Ridley planned to implant a Perspex lens into a patient, and held a series of clandestine meetings with John Pike of Rayner, an optical company based in Brighton. It was so widely accepted that implants would not work that they chose to meet in Cavendish Square in the back of Ridley's car. The first operation took place in 1949. Although it was successful, the implant was kept secret until 1951, because it was obvious that it would be considered a highly controversial operation.
Ridley did not patent his idea, because he was determined that the benefits of his work should not be constrained by financial considerations. It has been exactly 50 years since the first operation, and millions of people around the world owe their sight to Ridley's idea. Now 92, he lives near Salisbury with his wife, Elizabeth.

Phillies snap 5-game skid with 3-2 win over Twins
Cliff Lee allowed two runs in seven strong innings, Ben Revere had four hits and scored the go-ahead run, and the Philadelphia Phillies rallied to beat the Minnesota Twins 3-2 on Thursday night and snap a five-game losing streak.
The speedy Revere slid home with nobody out in the eighth, scoring from third base on Jimmy Rollins' chopper. First baseman Justin Morneau was playing in, but his throw was too late to catch Revere - formerly of the Twins.
Lee (8-2) gave up only one hit and faced the minimum number of batters through 6 1-3 innings before Joe Mauer walked and Ryan Doumit reached on an infield hit.
Morneau lined a two-run double past a diving Revere to give Minnesota a 2-1 lead in the seventh.
Pinch-hitter Kevin Frandsen opened the eighth with a double against reliever Jared Burton (0-4) and scored the tying run on Michael Young's single.
After surrendering a four-run lead in a loss to Milwaukee last Friday, Lee was locked in and performed well again following a loss.
In eight starts this season after a Phillies defeat, Lee is 7-1 with a 2.54 ERA.
The Phillies needed Lee to be as sharp as he was because even though they had 16 hits, they stranded 16 runners - including 10 in the first five innings against Kevin Correia.
Mike Adams pitched a perfect eighth, and Jonathan Papelbon worked the ninth for his 12th save.
The Phillies bullpen had given up late leads in the first two games of this series and entered the game with a 4.56 ERA - third worst in baseball.
In contrast, the Twins bullpen had a 1.78 ERA in its previous 18 games before Burton allowed the first four runners to reach in the eighth.
Correia allowed one run and eight hits, and struck out six in five innings.
Ryan Howard had three singles - all grounders through a Twins' defense shifted to the right side - and an RBI.
Young tried to score on Howard's third single in the sixth, but was thrown out by Doumit.
Mauer had the only other Twins hit, a single in the fourth.
NOTES: Philadelphia optioned rookie right-hander Tyler Cloyd to Triple-A Lehigh Valley to make room in the rotation for John Lannan, who is returning from a strained quadriceps tendon in his left knee. He will start Monday at Washington. The Phillies also recalled infielder Michael Martinez and left-hander Jake Diekman. ... New Minnesota Gophers men's basketball coach Richard Pitino threw out the first pitch. ... Twins manager Ron Gardenhire on former closer Eddie Guardado, who will be inducted into the team's hall of fame on Friday: "He was an everyday guy. He really did take the ball it seemed like every day. Any time you needed him to take the ball, he did it." ... Scott Diamond (4-5, 5.19 ERA) will start the series opener for the Twins against Detroit's Rick Porcello (3-3, 4.86 ERA) on Friday at Target Field. ... Kyle Kendrick (6-4, 3.22 ERA) starts Friday when the Phillies travel to Colorado and open a three-game series against the Rockies and Juan Nicasio (4-2, 4.61 ERA).

Ginsters launches first M&C Saatchi campaign
Ginsters, the pasty and sandwich brand, is launching it first integrated campaign since hiring M&C Saatchi, which celebrates the small acts of heroism performed by British men on a daily basis.
The campaign by M&C Saatchi launches today. It features men successfully proving their manliness with the help of a Ginsters peppered steak slice.
The two ads, called "the joke" and "the return", feature men who are able to make their girlfriend's work colleagues laugh and kick a football out of the way respectively after enjoying "the flavour that makes a man's inner confidence rigid".
The ads each end with the line, "feed the man". They were directed by Andy McLeod through Rattling Stick. The creative team at M&C Saatchi was Luke Boggins and Dan McCormack.
Linda Evans, the sales and marketing director at Ginsters, said: "This fun campaign captures precisely our ethos at Ginsters.
"We wanted to implement a high impact, multimedia campaign building on the cheeky humour that defines our brand while celebrating and engaging our consumers. These ads undoubtedly achieve this."
The media planning and buying for the campaign was Starcom MediaVest Group.
M&C Saatchi PR is handling the social media and consumer PR parts of the campaign, including three PR campaigns that will celebrate "manliness" through traditional and social media.
Ginsters handed M&C Saatchi its ad account without a pitch in October last year. The business was previously held by Grey London.

Man shot at laundromat: 'I was fighting for my life'
Updated On: Aug 02 2013 10:36:05 PM CDT
The Reading man who was robbed and shot at a laundromat in Berks County is speaking out.
Thursday started out as an ordinary day for Eric Vouse as he was folding his clothes at the Wash Around the Clock laundromat.
Things, however, quickly changed when police said he was approached by 18-year old Pablo Martinez Jr., who was wearing a mask and pointing a rifle at him, demanding his wallet and cell phone.
"He asked for my cell phone and he directed me as I was giving him my cell phone, before I even reached it out of my pocket, he told me he wanted me to lay down and he had to search me," said Vouse. "And I thought that was not going to happen because I think if I laid down and he shot me, then all that I was living for up until that point of my life would have been in vain."
At that point, Vouse said he was scared, but he knew he had to start fighting. He threw his phone down and grabbed a garbage basket to swing at his attacker.
His attacker fired a shot that grazed Vouse's head, but Vouse said he kept fighting until he got the upper hand, and he has the scars to prove it.
"He actually begged me to let him up and he would walk out the door because I had him in his throat. I had him everywhere. I would not turn him loose," said Vouse. "I was fighting for my life."
Vouse said Martinez finally retreated and Vouse got in the car and drove himself to the hospital.
Looking back, Vouse said he would not do anything differently.
"Do not go along with the program. Fight back. These knuckleheads can be whooped. They are not invincible. Just fight back. Do not be scared," said Vouse, who was treated at the hospital for the gunshot wound and released.
Martinez was later arrested on robbery and aggravated assault charges and committed to the Berks County Jail on $750,000 bail.

text: Wade, Jenkins and Lewis Progress as Van Gerwen Hits Sensational Nine-Darter Visit Bet365 Save For Later by Jamie ShawPosted Michael van Gerwen lets out a roar to match that of the sell-out crowd following his nine darter (credit: Lawrence Lustig/ PDC) Share: 0 0 0 Get PDC Darts News Alerts Michael van Gerwen fired in a magical nine-dart finish to light up the Winter Gardens on Wednesday evening en route to victory over Steve Beaton, as the much-fancied Raymond van Barneveld exited the competition.Watch and bet on live World Matchplay Darts at Bet365 > Live streaming > DartsVan Gerwen, the 23-year-old Dutch prodigy, became only the fourth player in the tournament's history - alongside Phil Taylor, Raymond van Barneveld and John Part - to achieve the perfect leg when he hit 180, 180 and finished 141 on double 12 in the ninth leg of his clash with Steve Beaton.The feat appeared to be one of the quickest in history and he will pick up a £5,000, although more importantly, he remains in the hunt to claim the £100,000 first prize after going on to win a heavy-scoring contest in style with a 13-9 triumph.Van Gerwen hit six ton-plus finishes in the game, accompanying the 141 with checkouts of 128, 120, a pair of 116 finishes and a 108 - as well as hitting seven 180s to finish with a barnstorming end average of 104.36."The nine-darter was amazing," said van Gerwen. "It means so much for me and I'm very happy - I exploded into the game after the nine-darter."It was a very good game and Steve played well too. To win the game with a 104 average and a nine-darter is brilliant."Van Gerwen now faces 2007 champion James Wade in a tasty quarter-final tie on Friday night, with the world number three securing his place in the last eight for a seventh successive year by cruising past Mark Walsh 13-4.Wade was rarely troubled as he romped into a 10-1 lead, and although Walsh rallied briefly, the left-hander proved too strong to secure passage into the latter stages once again."I did all the damage early on and did a job on Mark," said Wade. "I think every player enjoys a ding-dong and I didn't get that tonight, but I've done my practice and I'm deserving to win at the moment."Raymond van Barneveld's rampant form on the floor coming into the event counted for nothing as he suffered his first ever exit at the second round stage, going down 13-10 to Terry Jenkins.The lead changed hands on multiple occasions as Barney produced a 109 finish to lead 3-2, before a plucky Jenkins drew level at 5-5 at the second break.Arguably the turning point in the match saw the Dutchman squander nine darts at a double to break throw and lead 8-5, as Ledbury ace Jenkins produced a trademark Bull charge.The two-time finalist rallied from 8-6 down to win seven of the game's final nine legs and seal yet another dramatic victory."I took some good finishes out when I needed to so I'm happy," said Jenkins. "It was nip and tuck but I've got through and that's all that matters."I've had a few good runs in this tournament and I like the longer format. I would really like to win a major, that would cap my career off - but a lot of players would swap players with me because I've been in seven major finals."Jenkins will meet World Champion Adrian Lewis in the Quarter-Finals, after the number two seed followed up his first round whitewash of Robert Thornton with a crushing 13-7 defeat of a helpless Andy Smith. At one stage, Jackpot led 7-0, meaning he had yet to drop a leg from his 17 played so far. Smith knew the damage had been done, but got a chalk on the board in leg eight and went on to add a hint of respectability to the score line.The Pie Man won six of the next eight to threaten a comeback, but a 149 checkout from Lewis (to follow earlier finishes of 138 and 116) helped avert any threat as he progressed to play Terry Jenkins."Andy didn't start very well and I took advantage but I've got to knuckle down and concentrate better because I let him back in too many times," admitted Lewis. "I got the job done and I'll have to be better in the quarter-finals."The second round concludes with the remaining four games on Thursday evening, with reigning champion Phil Taylor facing Ian White in an all-Stoke battle.Number five seed Wes Newton plays Justin Pipe, World Championship finalist Andy Hamilton faces Mark Webster and local favourite Ronnie Baxter meets Dean Winstanley.Betfair World Matchplay ResultsSecond Round - Wednesday July 25Michael van Gerwen 13-9 Steve Beaton - Michael van Gerwen hits nine-dart finishJames Wade 13-4 Mark WalshRaymond van Barneveld 10-13 Terry JenkinsAdrian Lewis 13-7 Andy SmithThursday July 26Andy Hamilton v Mark WebsterWes Newton v Justin PipePhil Taylor v Ian WhiteDean Winstanley v Ronnie Baxter Visit Bet365 Read our Bet365 review Watch & bet on live darts streaming online at bet365 From Around the Site The top ten darts fashion icons - Our favourite novelty darts shirts Live Darts November Editor's Column - Grand Slam Taylor-made for The Power Buy PDC darts tickets online - The ultimate guide of how to buy your tickets for major darts events facebook Twitter gPlus Send email Reddit More Reddit Su Link All PDC Darts News Recent World Matchplay Articles The top five Vines from the 2014 World Matchplay dartsAfter nine days of thrills and spills at the Winter Gardens, we pick out our top five Vines from a memorable 2014 World Matchplay....

Photographer! I enjoy looking at and taking photographs and I think you can capture a lot more with a good photograph than you can with words.

I currently work full-time as both a reporter and photographer. No question, photography is much better.

I've met journalists at press releae parties and photographers at galleries. I think given the choice I'd be a photographer, they seem to enjoy work more...

I'd rather be a photographer. I took a lot of photography classes in high school and college and I really liked developing photos and doing things in the darkroom and messing around with all the settings on my SLR camera.
