Cartel Chronicles: Cartel Boss Still in Charge Despite Being Sought by Authorities and Rivals

EXCLUSIVE photograph of an ID card belonging to the Gulf Cartel boss in Matamoros
Breitbart Texas

Breitbart Texas traveled to the Mexican border cities of Reynosa and Matamoros to recruit citizen journalists willing to risk their lives and expose the cartels silencing their communities.  The writers would face certain death at the hands of the Gulf Cartel if a pseudonym were not used. Breitbart Texas’ Cartel Chronicles are published in both English and in their original Spanish. This article was written by Reynosa’s “AC Del Angel.”

REYNOSA, Tamaulipas — A year after the Mexican government kicked off their new security strategy for Tamaulipas, the border area, as well as the southern part of the state, remain trapped in a downward spiral of violence. While officials praise the capture of 14 out of 15 major organized crime targets, the results have not been felt by average citizens, who live in a constant state of danger.

The last target on the list of cartel bosses remaining to be captured is Angel Eduardo Prado Rodríguez, “El Orejon” (the big ears) or “Ciclon 7”. He is described as the plaza boss for the Gulf Cartel in Matamoros, and leader of the faction known as los “Ciclones”.

The plaza boss in Matamoros has been one of the longest-lasting commanders at the helm of the Gulf Cartel. His long tenure as leader is noteworthy, since in the current era, cartel bosses typically have a short lifespan with their criminal groups. Arrests, executions, and betrayals are always just around the corner.

Four years at the helm of the Gulf Cartel in Matamoros have allowed “El Orejon” to develop an organization strong enough to withstand the onslaught of both Mexican authorities and Rodriguez’ rivals in the Gulf Cartel, “Los Metros”.

Angel Prado, the Gulf Cartel boss in Matamoros also known as El Orejon.

Juan Carrizales, the Gulf Cartel boss in Rio Bravo also known as El 98.

War for control of the border cities is currently fought between two factions from the Gulf Cartel, the “Metros” in Reynosa against the “Ciclones” in Matamoros.

The infighting within the Gulf Cartel came after the criminal organization’s leadership suffered a number of setbacks, such as the arrest of Mario Pelon “X20” in August 2013, then the capture of Juan Manuel Rodriguez Rodriguez and Juan Manuel Rodriguez Garcia, also known as “Juan Perros”. Both father and son had inherited the command of the Gulf Cartel from “X20,” and had been leading the criminal organization from the border city of Rio Bravo prior to their capture, which left a void at the top of the cartel.

After these arrests, the group from Rio Bravo began to fall apart. The arrival of a new plaza boss to Rio Bravo named Juan Francisco Carrizales, a.k.a. “98,” came at a time when many cartel members were moving to Matamoros. The alliance of Juan Perros’ people with the Ciclones of Matamoros came about in order to fight the Metros in Reynosa, who appear to have had betrayed the former cartel boss.

The betrayal of Juan Perros was orchestrated by the Metros from Reynosa in an effort to seize control of a coveted plaza in Rio Bravo Tamaulipas. The rivalries between the two groups became evident in 2014, with sporadic clashes between the two, but it was not until February 2015 that the two factions openly declared war.

Battles occurred primarily along the highway that connects Reynosa and Matamoros, over the course of several days. The prized plazas Rio Bravo and Valle Hermoso were hardest hit, as both groups repelled the onslaught of rival forces and held their respective turf.

The war within the Gulf Cartel continues, but with lower intensity, since the federal government stepped up their highway patrols between these cities. However, some incursions continue to take place, as well as gruesome executions where cartel messages are left behind along with human remains.

The Reynosa-Matamoros highway remains unsafe, with constant reports of carjacking and armed robbery. Some government officials have resorted to traveling with armed escorts, as they have been targeted with threats from cartel gunmen.

A year after the new security program began, the state continues to burn with gang violence. Recent shootouts and blockades in aReynosa and Tampico serve as grim reminders of the cartel war for residents of these communities. Secretary of the Interior Miguel Ángel Osorio Chong visited Reynosa last month to give a victory speech about the war on criminal organizations, but the talking points he recited are far from the fearful reality the people of Tamaulipas continue to live with.

Bridget Eileen Poetry Reading at the Zinc Bar in The Village

First and foremost, I want to note: I LOVE DOING POETRY READINGS!!! Some people hate them, but I think I came to poetry by way of a performing arts background, it's one of my favorite things about being a poet. I certainly love it more than sending poems out to publish. That's a vulnerability that's not my favorite. But being in front of everyone to read is, for me, the best. If you're ever looking for readers for your series, I will happily do it. And, if I do say so myself, I put on a pretty good show, because I love it.

So I was really happy when I was invited to be a featured reader at the poetry reading series at the Zinc Bar in Greenwich Village back at the end of April.  It was a more or less last minute invitation; it came at the beginning of April and I couldn't confirm I could go until the middle of April. But off I was able to go and it was a lot of fun, though a smaller affair on account of it being one of the most beautiful Spring Days probably in the history of the North East.

Have you been to New York City ever? It really is pretty damn magical. Just full of energy and vibrancy and life. (And dirt, grime and toughness, but that can be slightly appealing in its own gritty way, too.)

The reading took place just a few days after Prince had died. So with just a few days before the reading, I scrapped the last group of poems I'd picked out for my 20 minute set and did something special for the mournful occasion.

purple poems chapbook for poetry reading after prince died by bridget eileen

I have all my poems stored on Google drive, so I searched for the word "purple" and gathered all the poems with the -- OMG freaky! As I was typing this "I Wanna Be Your Lover" began playing on my old-school iPod with a playlist of 300+ songs! It's a message from the Purple One that he endorses his tribute! -- anyway, gathered all the poems with the word purple and created a small chapbook. I closed my reading by reading "The Purple Poems" in honor of Prince and handed out homemade copies to the cozy but enthusiastic crowd.

Eastern Central OK Rail Traffic

The Stillwater Central is a short line using the former SLSF tracks from Tulsa to OKC. The BN acquired the tracks when they took over the Frisco. This line carries several BNSF trains as well as Stillwater Central traffic. If you have any SLSF timetables you can follow traffic on some of the former SLSF subs.
I also receive the BNSF Redrock sub, some Avard Sub, some Creek Sub, and other BNSF sub traffic. I hear the UP dispatcher for the Enid sub, OKC sub and others. I can monitor the AOK shortline from Shawnee and OKC. This shortline runs on former CRIP tracks.  In most cases the dispatcher is usually very strong where the train may be with static. I may add or remove channels as I go.  If some channels have too much noise from weak signals I can shut them down, or tighten the squelch up, if they are a nuisance. Different times of the morning, and or season, signals may be better or worse due to temperature inversion.
 Frequencies Monitored
o 160.560 AAR ch30 BNSF Redrock North Sub Dispatcher
o 161.310 AAR ch80 Stillwater Central RR Dispatcher (Dispatcher located in Wichita, KS) you can hear the trains tone up the nearest line side transmitter to talk to the dispatcher. Sometime the train crew may not get the phone patch disconnected and you hear the busy signal, if I'm near the radio I will lock the the channel out.

Its snowing. Again!

View from the box room window

Not evident from the photo above is that its really coming down out there. Burrr. Got to admit, I'll a little sick of winter already. I know, its only January so I need to toughen up. Truer words have never been spoken.

And speaking of toughening up, I've had not one but two experiences this weekend with people that suck! The first one with the Craigslist seller who promised to hold the nightstands for me and then sold them an hour before I got there. What the &%*#? Its not the nightstand but rather that she knew I was cancelling plans to drive out to pick them up and she could care less. The second person was the 'winner' of one of my ebay auctions who refuses to pay for the item or reimburse me for the fees. What is wrong with people? Is there no personal accountability or general courtesy anymore? I won't go into a rant here but its people like these two that undermine the fabric of a decent society. Grrr... Deep breathes, Count to ten, all that.

On the bright side, had a productive weekend scouting New Jersey for a few furniture pieces as well as a couple of other finds. More in my next post.

  1. And I'm having the exact opposite experience with an ebay seller who won't send me what I already paid for! and also won't answer any of my email inquiries about why I don't have it already???! Grrrr.

    And, really, I'm not trying to rub it in by saying that I'm sitting here in sunny California and it's supposed to be 67 degrees today. Really....I've lived many years in the Midwest and I would LOVE to have some snow..and four seasons, not just a measly two.

  2. P.S. The view from your box room is beautiful.

  3. First time visit to your blog. Great view of the snow. We have too much here too. In Boston.

    I could do a rant about the loss of courtesy in our world. Happens every day. Sorry to hear of your experiences with mean people.

    I'm off to read more of your posts-you have a lovely blog.

  4. Snow just makes everything beautiful-even the ghetto

  5. Send some to St. Louis! I miss snow! I hear you! there is no common decency anymore.

  6. Uggh...people are jerks, plain and simple.

    Hopefully you found something way better in New Jersey! : )

  7. 1. I'm jealous of your snow day.
    2. For every good experience I've had with Craigslist I've had five bad ones to counteract it. I expect nothing when making transactions in order to avoid being disappointed.

  8. Colorful life - Feel free to rub it in. Its your right as someone who moved to more pleasant weather to remind all of us dopes who still subject themselves to the torture of winter :)

    Newburgh - Not sure where you would get the idea I live in the ghetto but I assure you, I do not.

    Chatelaine - Welcome! Hope to see you again soon.

  9. Hi there! Happy New Year! I haven't commented in a while but I've been keeping up with you and your fabulous self! =D

    I'm sorry you've had to deal with dumb people! It really is mind blowing, isn't it??? How do these people get through their daily lives? Do they have jobs? Do they have friends? I can't imagine! If this is how they treat others...GRRRR! I'm right there with you! Mean people totally suck!

    I'm also with you in the whole "I'm completely OVER winter" mood! I'm actually looking forward to the 30 degree weather we're supposed to get in Michigan on Thursday...ridiculous! I've lived here my whole life and yet...I HATE being cold!

    So, here's hoping you have a great week despite the weather and a few dumb people!

  10. I would love to live on your street! Love reading your blog and watching the renovation. It's fabulous! We are beginning our own renovation, which I am very excited about, but equally dreading the process.

  11. I wish we'd get some snow here in the DC metro area (after the inauguration, of course!)

  12. I love your new banner - very chic girl!

    Yes, some days it's like the world is full of a**holes. Then the next day, it's all puppies and sunshine and niceness. Fortunately, the world has a lot of amazing folks. Just none of them live in NYC. Just kidding - I have always enjoyed my visits there and everyone was very kind. There are losers everywhere sister. You are not alone in wanting to deck a few today.

  13. Hi. In your next post, would you mind mentioning the places in NJ where you went furniture shopping? I live in NYC and am always looking for great antiques stores or furniture stores in NY, NJ or CT.

  14. Hi Alison - I definitely will.

  15. Hello, I was wondering if I could post a pic of your beautiful office on my blog. I LOVE your office. Covet may be the word. You did an amazing job and I love your taste.
    Love the door knobs! I just started a new blog and am searching for pictures of inspiration. Thanks!
    Blessings, Brooke

  16. Hi Brooke. Welcome to the darkside of blogging :) Of course you can post my office or whatever else strikes your fancy.

  17. Oh no, I'm so sorry to hear that!! That totally sucks! I have a feeling something better will come along for you and I will keep my fingers crossed!

  18. Sorry to hear about your experience with craiglist and ebay grrrrr BUT.......

  19. oops, I hit enter before I was finished.

    Here is Australia (Melb) we've had three weeks of really high temps four 44+ degree days which is 111 degrees for you.

    Snow would be nice right about now :-)

  20. Hi - Just spent some time looking at your blog -- what fun!

    I'm sorry about your Craigslist woman -- not cricket, selling those things out from under you. We've been finding things to furnish our old house in NJ thru Craigslist and Ebay, and so far -- so good. Great people, thank goodness, and terrific buys -- even free.

    And thanks for the tip about Englishtown Antiques! I can't afford to buy the period antiques we bought decades ago but I love that "old used" stuff -- don't get the point of new furniture, at all, except upholstery!

    I'll be back....
    PS A box room? Fantastic. Makes me miss our Pittsburgh row house!

There is nothing that thrills me more than hearing from readers. Please share your thoughts. ♥

The Brownwood Lady Lions battled reigning Class 4A state champion Stephenville to a scoreless tie during regulation in their District 4-4A soccer encounter Friday night at Gordon Wood Stadium, but the Honeybees prevailed, 3-2, in a penalty kick shootout.

Beatris Chavarria, Brinkley Harlow and Courtney Langley recorded goals in the shootout for Stephenville (3-0 in district), while Madison Chesser and Taylar Kinzler found the net for the Lady Lions (10-3, 1-2 in district).

“It was a case of us beating ourselves,” said Brownwood head coach Brent Hardwick. “In the PK shootout, we had three misses, two of which weren't on goal. In a shootout if you're going to lose you need to make the opposing keeper beat you by forcing her to make saves but that just wasn't the case for us.”

The Lady Lions begin the second of three rounds of district action at 5 p.m. Tuesday at Abilene Wylie. Brownwood dropped the first district meeting with Wylie, 3-2, in Brownwood despite owning a 1-0 lead at halftime.

Stephenville 1, Lions 0

The Brownwood Lions are continuing the search for their first District 4-4A soccer victory after suffering a 1-0 loss to Stephenville Friday night at Gordon Wood Stadium.

The Lions (4-9-1, 0-3) completed the first of three rounds of district competition with a one-goal loss, a shootout loss and a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Wylie, which hosts Brownwood at 7 p.m. Tuesday.

“The boys played pretty well,” Hardwick said. “Stephenville's only goal was deflected in by one of our defenders.”

Mac Dennis - Far North Coast Junior Lifesaver of the Year

Mac Dennis - Far North Coast Junior Lifesaver of the Year
Brunswick SLSC is proud to announce Mac Dennis is Far North Coast Junior Lifesaver of the Year and wins High Commendation at NSW State titles.

Mac joined Brunswick Surf Lifesaving Club when he moved into the area from the US at the age of six.  He was an enthusiastic nipper joining in on Sundays and attending every extra training available.  He also became involved with fundraising at a young age, participating in the annual Australia Day breakfast in the park and raising money for the nippers through numerous raffles.

In his final year of nippers Mac was involved in several club initiatives.  Some of the activities he enjoyed most were the Swim Between the Flags program at the local primary schools and helping with the Papua New Guinea Surf Appeal which provides surf lifesaving equipment and surfing gear to villages in Papua New Guinea.  This program also teaches surf safety and lifesaving skills to the villagers.

Mac plans on being a member of Brunswick SLSC for a long time to come.  "I love being a part of Brunswick and Surf Lifesaving.  There is always someone at the beach to hang out with and catch waves.  If I ever need help with something I know I have someone I can turn to, there are lots of older guys around to give you advice and help you out.  Being a part of a surf club, especially a small club like Bruns, is like having a second family."

Through the Junior Surf Lifesaver of the Year program Mac has been able to develop his leadership skills and meet several other Lifesavers from all over the state.  He is looking forward to catching up with his mates from the development camp at the State Titles held at Cudgen Headlands this year.  "We keep in touch through Facebook and it's fun to hear about what the other guys are up to. I can't wait to see everyone again."

In addition to resuming his patrolling duties this year, Mac is planning on continuing to go into the schools and teaching students surf safety as well as his involvement with the PNG surf appeal. He is also excited to come down to the beach on Sunday mornings and helping out with the younger members of the club.

As for the future? "You meet lots of great people through Surf Life Saving and there are so many fun ways to get involved.  Being a part of this organisation can help you get paid work or even opportunities to use your skills overseas.  Both sound good to me!"

Just when you think tragedy has reached the ultimate depths, along comes Tchaikovsky with an Arctic whirlwind of an opera, a chilly gripping thriller crammed with everything dark and passionate and mysterious. “The Queen of Spades” is Tchaikovsky at his darkest and best; after “Eugene Onegin” he once again delved into Pushkin and his elaborate ghost story and worked on the libretto with his brother, to spin out the essence of his finest opera. Set during the reign of Catherine the Great, it demands tortured, tormented intensity from

the cast, the orchestra and also from the audience. The orchestra should hold nothing back, attacking the intensity of the score so we feel Tchaikovsky’s tragedy with every fibre of our souls.
While Massenet gently leads you in spiralling circles towards the tragic finale and Puccini throws it out full of dramatic Italian passion, so Tchaikovsky positively slams it into your chest, virtually knocking the breath out of you.

Conductor Vassily Sinaisky has the task of bringing the full passionate force of Tchaikovsky’s score to drag us through the darkness.

The setting and costumes should be as elaborate as the plot and we can expect nothing short of greatness from the director, Vadim Milkov.

Hermann, our tortured protagonist, played by Mikhail Gubsky, is an obsessive by nature. He becomes infatuated with beautiful yet out of reach Liza, performed by the fiercely talented Szilvia Rálik. Liza is way above him in social standing and due to marry Prince Yeletsky (Zsolt Haja).

Tormented and possessed of an addictive personality, Hermann then turns towards the card games he has avoided. His obsession will stop at nothing, only death will halt it.

The character of Hermann demands so much from its lead singer way and beyond the vocal range; this is a character who needs to be convincing in terms of obsession and at times borderline insanity.
If this were modern-day St. Petersburg, he might be shooting up home-cooked krokodil in a shady apartment block in Kupchino and that would not make an opera, just a depressing docu-drama for TV. But like all junkies, he needs and craves that fix and his true obsession is with the deck of cards.

He even threatens the Countess (Bernadett Wiedemann), once legendary lucky lady and the eponymous Queen of Spades, herself with a gun to discover the secret of the playing cards, the secret only two others knew.

Of course, in classic Russian style, Liza, now swept away by Hermann’s passion, wants to meet him by a freezing river at midnight in the middle of winter (where else could be more depressing and dangerous?). Hermann is more intent on solving the hidden mystery within the card games, believing he can unlock the secret the Queen of Spades, the old Countess, held to her chest in her young and frivolous years.

And like a junkie, he is ruthlessly self-obsessed; his victims Liza and the Countess are nothing to him. If he can only crack the formula, he believes he can fix his whole broken life.

Hermann’s own confession that life is nothing but a game of cards suggests the carelessness he attaches to his own existence and all those around him. He is dicing with death throughout, fighting with his own demons and the House always wins.

Punjab: Khalistani terrorist escapes in prison break, probe launched

ANI  |  Nabha(Punjab) [India]

Khalistan Liberation Force (KLF) chief and noted terrorist Harminder Singh Mintoo and four other prisoners escaped from Punjab's Nabha Jail on Sunday after 10 armed men broke into the jail and helped the prisoners top escape.

The four prisoners who escaped along Mintoo are Gurpreet Singh, Vicky Gondra, Nitin Deol and Vikramjeet Singh.

The incident happened early in the morning, when the armed men wearing police uniforms fired over 100 rounds at the jail authorities.

The Police are now at spot to assess the situation, even as the probe has been initiated.

The dreaded militant Mintoo, was arrested by police from Delhi's IGI airport on November 2014 when he was on his way back from Thailand.

The 47-year-old is wanted in 10 terror-related cases, including the 2008 attack on Sirsa-based Dera Sacha Sauda chief Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh and 2010 recovery of explosives at Halwara Air Force station.

Mintoo took over the KLF in 2009 after he had defected from Wadhawa Singh-led Babbar Khalsa International (BKI).

He is wanted for plotting killings of three Shiv Sena leaders. He also planted Improvised Explosive Devices at Halwara Air Force station near Ludhiana in 2010 .

We Make Money the Old-fashioned Way: Confidence Work

For years Smith Barney ran ads featuring gravel-voiced actors intoning "We make money the old-fashioned way: We EARN it". Some folks disagree. Charlie Munger, vice-chairman at Berkshire Hathaway one said in a speech:

"I asked the question 'Is there a functional equivalent to embezzlement?' I came up with a lot of wonderful alternatives. Some were in investment management. After all, I'm near investment management. I considered the billions of dollars totally wasted in the course of investing common stock portfolios for American owners. As long as the market goes up, the guy who's wasting all this money doesn't feel it, because he's look at these steadily rising values. And to the guy who is getting the money for investment advice, the money looks like well earned income, when he's really selling detriment for money, surely the functional equivalent of undisclosed embezzlement. You can see why I don't get invited to many lectures."

Of course, the market doesn't go up forever, and some of that expensive advice looks pretty outlandish in hindsight. In a recent paper entitled Rewriting History, three researchers found that between 2002 and 2004, the I/B/E/S database of research analyst stock recommendations underwent significant changes, specifically:

"The non-random removal of 19,904 analyst names from historic recommendations ("anonymizations"); 2) the addition of 19,204 new records that were not previously part of the database; 3) the removal of 4,923 records that had been in the database; and 4) alterations to 10,698 historical recommendations. In total, we document 54,729 ex post changes to a database originally containing 280,463 observations."

The owner of the data, Thompson Financial, claims that the anonymizations were caused by a series of software glitches, but the researchers beg to differ:

"Surprisingly, despite the seemingly random nature of this type of shock to the data, the resulting patterns have apparently systematic components, rather than appearing random. For instance, bolder recommendations are more likely to be anonymized, as are recommendations for more senior analysts and Institutional Investor "all-stars". The characteristics of the additions and deletions are similarly unusual. Additions disproportionately consist of holds and sells; indeed, in the case of one prominent brokerage firm, 91.5% of its 234 additions are sells, and these increase the number of sells the firm has on the 2002 tape by a factor of 20. Deletions, on the other hand, disproportionally consist of strong buys, while alterations disproportionally consist of buys and strong buys (which are typically revised down). Perhaps, most strikingly, all four types of changes correlate strongly with survival by both the brokerage firm and by the analyst."

The paper goes into specifics regarding the changes and the methods they used to research and classify them. As to why these changes happened, it's the classic case of "follow the money". For individual analysts, career advancement was higher for those with changes than those without (and there were virtually no changes for analysts who retired before 2003). For the all-stars, those anonymizations make them appear much more conservative than they really were. Ditto for the brokerage-level recommendations, which were altered even more dramatically. Of course, this wouldn't have anything to do with the fact that Elliot Spitzer was using the "exuberance" of recommendations as an impetus to investigate the firms at the time. No, no. Simple software glitches.

Dirty Money: 10 Ways That Landscaping Companies Stay In the Black

I once met a man who spent a considerable amount of time at the horse track. He claimed to do pretty well, and I saw him make money on most of the races he bet. I asked him if he did any investing, and he answered "Never! There's no sure thing in horse racing, but at least you're not betting against the house!" And using the house's questionable tips to boot!

Butler County's great daily newspaper

Tractor trailers crash, close I-70 in Washington Co.

December 23, 2013 News Extra

EIGHTY-FOUR, Pa. — Crashes involving a semi-truck hauling two trailers and other vehicles have prompted state police to close Interstate 70 in both directions in southwestern Pennsylvania.

The crash happened Tuesday morning near the exit for Eighty-Four, Pa. and state Route 519 in Washington County. That’s about 25 miles inside Pennsylvania, east of the West Virginia border.

Initial reports were the crash involved the eastbound trailers and other vehicles. But PennDOT officials say the highway has been closed in both directions because of another crash involving vehicles in the westbound lanes, whose drivers may have been distracted by the eastbound wreckage.

There were no immediate reports of injuries.

Light snow began falling in the greater Pittsburgh area shortly after dawn today, but it wasn’t immediately clear if weather played a role in the crash.

Stardust 3/4 Day Trip

Nice day of fishing for us today across at Santa Rosa Island today with only 17 anglers on board.

We headed across this morning and started our day fishing some larger patches of hard bottom with very strong current. After only catching a few fish for the bags we headed elsewhere and were able to find better conditions. Our next couple hours we stayed busy steadily picking away at nice quality rockfish as well as a few Whitefish to go along with it. Our last part of the day we ran back out to deeper water and were able to top off the bags with more Reds and a few more Lingcod.

Our 17 anglers ended the day with 56 Reds, 79 Coppers, 35 Rockfish27 Whitefish, 2 Sheephead, 2 Sculpin and 12 Lingcod.

The Stardust needs reservations to go out 1/2 Day Fishing tomorrow as well as 3/4 Day Fishing Thursday and Friday. The Coral Sea has room for its 3/4 Day Wednesday and needs more reservations to go 1/2 Day Fishing Thursday and Friday. Please call Sea Landing at 805 963-3564 or visit our website to book online.

I'm pretty sure these are hitting the market. I have no idea if they are good or dangerous. Just an FYI.

A Beautiful Story to Start the Morning

One of my friends on facebook posted this story today and I just had to share it:

During a recent homily a priest told an interesting story of Pope John Paul’s visit to the Baltimore area in 1995:

The Pope was scheduled for a quick trip by the local seminary. But even though it was not scheduled, he wanted to go in and pray at their chapel. So a security team and German Shepherd canine unit that was specially trained to find human beings - using their superior sense of smell, like the ones used after the September 11 attack to find people in the rubble - were sent to search for people hiding in the various rooms.

They searched the halls and rooms and found nothing, and then were sent into the chapel where the Pope intended to pray.

They sniffed in all the aisles and then came to the tabernacle which held the consecrated Hosts. The dogs sniffed and pointed, indicating that they sensed a human being present in the holy tabernacle, and would not leave until their handlers called them off.

This was witnessed by over ten security people.

Great Ocean Road, VIC

Victoria’s Great Ocean Road unwinds before the travellers like a welcoming black ribbon, snaking westward some two hundred and fifty kilometres from Torquay to Warrnambool. Along the way you’ll experience breathtaking coastal scenery, delightful seaside villages, lush rainforests and rich rural hinterland.

Towering ochre cliffs explode into orange and brown with the setting sun and drop almost vertically to vivid blue seas, where they guard some of the best surfing beaches in the world. Ever-changing coastal landscapes give way to a hinterland of waterfalls and entrancing flora and fauna – you truly feel that you are in one of nature’s wonderlands.

You owe it to yourself to stop a while along the way just to feel the soft white sand beneath your feet and the clear blue waters lapping at your toes. There are few better ways to start a journey!

The Great Ocean Road: is there any other road quite like this? We doubt it. Whatever you do, please take your time and soak up the experience. After all, these will be memories you’ll cherish forever.

It’s likely that you have heard of the Twelve Apostles, those iconic limestone stacks that rear up from the sea. Other travellers have probably told you not to miss the Great Otway National Park and Otway Tree Tip Adventures, too – but these popular attractions are only part of the story. You can also view pods of migrating whales, listen to unbelievable stories of the Shipwreck Coast, follow mouth-watering food trails, and find quaint cafes and the freshest local produce at your fingertips.

For many travellers, the appeal of the area could lie in the knowledge that major sections of this road were dug and quarried by pickaxe and shovel; built through the efforts of some 3,000 WWI diggers, soldiers and sailors. Forming the world’s longest war memorial, this was a labour of love to honour fallen comrades – and that alone deserves our reflection and respect.

This year marks a century since the outbreak of WWI, the ‘war to end all wars’, so what better time to plan a visit? A trip of a lifetime it surely is but it’s also one that can be visualised as having three parts. As your engine fires into life and you start westward from Torquay you’ll visit the Surf Coast and Otway Tours, tour the Shipwreck Coast then finish along the Discovery Coast. Each region is unique, so take it easy and savour every marvellous moment.

The Great Ocean Road stretches 243km and was built by returned soldiers of World War I as a dedication to comrades that were killed in battle. It is currently the world’s largest war memorial.

Torquay has a long-standing reputation for being the surfing capital of Australia and this fast-growing area is attracting plenty of permanent residents. They’ve even announced a brand-new Bowls Club for those hordes of grey nomads who love their outdoor sport.

While you’re collecting information and free maps from the Visitor Centre seriously consider spending an hour or two exploring the Surf World Museum, reputed to be one of the best of its kind in the world. Take a notepad with you and put together your own little trivia test to test a few brain cells at Happy Hour.
You’ll enjoy walking along the surfboard gallery under a facsimile of a breaking wave; learning about a jet-powered surfboard and generally drinking in memories of what it was like when we thought we were young and bulletproof.

Surfing aside, Torquay is a great opportunity to stock up, have mechanical repairs or maintenance done and do some last-minute reading on the trip ahead. There’s no better place to start than at the Historical Society, once a police building but now bursting with photos and stories – such as that of William Buckley the ‘Wild White Man’, who lived in and around here. He spent some 32 years living with local Aboriginal tribes who befriended him as a tribal leader that came back from the dead. The expression, ‘You’ve got Buckley’s” relates directly to his saga of survival and you can even obtain a map to trace his movements. (And that’s another one you can add to your Torquay Trivia Test: “Where did the expression “You’ve got Buckley’s” originate?)

From your caravan park you can visit many of the nearby beaches and enjoy the grassy foreshores for a picnic lunch or a quiet cuppa, while you take in the inspiring coastal scenery. There is a local Farmers Market, so check out the dates and times to pick up succulent fresh fruit and veggies. If you’re a shopaholic, you’ll find plenty of inviting outlets in the local shopping centre to indulge your habit. Remember that Torquay is the home of the best-known surf-wear brands worldwide, so if you want to look the part or long for the latest chill-proof wetsuit, then this is the place for you.

While you’re staying in Torquay – or when you make your way west – you really should take a look at Bells beach. If you’ve got your van or fifth wheeler there’s ample parking opposite the Bells Beach turn-off sign. On almost any day and in any weather you’re bound to find wet-suited riders chasing waves off the point or waiting further out for the swells to roll in.  If you feel like a swim, there are wooden steps down to the sandy beach, or you can just stay on the observation platform and take in the board riders and the coastline.

About 47km away you’ll find the popular destination of Lorne, but the serpentine roads dictate that you should allow plenty of time and take care on the bends. Some international drivers drive on the opposite side of the road to us and other like to cut corners, so be ever vigilant and prepared to drive defensively.
The Memorial Arch across the road before Lorne commemorates those who built the road and why they did so. It is the world’s biggest war memorial and its history, built as it was in sections, will fascinate you. Upon completion this section of the Great Ocean Road was only accessible by foot or pushbike but the need to transport fish quickly through to Torquay and beyond dictated that vehicles should be able to drive along it. There was also a toll place here to help pay for the cost of road maintenance. As it was based on a ‘per person’ payment system, buses originally would stop, allow passengers to disembark and walk around the toll booth, and then would pick them up on the other side, after paying their heavily discounted toll! As you might imagine, this practice was quickly put to a stop.

Lorne is an attractive seaside village with caravan parks and a shopping strip to please most travellers. We dropped into the Visitors Centre which was undergoing development when we were there. Upon completion this centre will clearly show travellers the story of the development of the Great Ocean Road, including the township of Lorne.

Diagonally opposite is the Historical Society where volunteers were busy arranging a wonderful collection of black and white photos, not only of the road by the Shipwreck Coast but much more. Next time you’re down this way, reward their industry with a visit!

Lorne’s hinterland boasts a selection of attractive waterfalls such as Phantom Falls, Henderson Falls, She Oak Falls and Erskine Falls to name but a few. We decided to seek out the very accessible Erskine Falls, a short drive from Lorne, and found a lookout just 80m from the bitumen car park. We were rewarded with the sight of a dramatic spill of white water to the river surging through the rainforest below. For an even more dramatic view, those who are fit enough to can descend 150m to the base of the falls via recently upgraded wooden walkways and steps.

Before you pull out of the car park, spend a moment at the information board to learn more about your surroundings. (More for your trivia test, perhaps?)
Backtracking to Lorne we stopped at Teddy’s Lookout. It’s only a short easy walk from the car park and the brilliant views way below to the Great Ocean Road are well worth a photo or two. You’ll be driving this part of the road soon enough as you continue west so this walk allows you to get a birds’-eye view of what you’re in for.

It’s only 44km further to Apollo Bay, but allow plenty of time to pull over and take some photos (as well as to let through any traffic that has built up behind your RV, if you’re towing.) You don’t have to be an expert photographer to take spectacular scenery shots around here.

Regrettably, on a schedule and limited by space on the DVD, we didn’t have enough time to visit every coastal village such as Cumberland River, Wye River and Kennett River as beautiful as they may be – but we recommend that you stop at as many places as you can. This stretch of Australia is unique in offering not only wonderful views but fascinating snippets of history at every stop. There’s a good reason that this has earned the name ‘The Shipwreck Coast’, and you will hear story after story about disasters and bravery. The Mary Cumming and The Speculant, for example, both ran aground on rocks not far from Kennett River.
As in most coastal towns there are supermarkets, hotels and plenty of eateries in Apollo Bay. Tip: there’s a top fish and chip shop near the wharf! I doubt that there are many better experiences than eating hot, freshly cooked fish while looking over spectacular coastal scenery at the end of a busy day of exploring and adventuring. Who says we travellers do it tough! And all for a food outlay of some $12 for two.

Once established on our green grassy site overlooking the bay, we headed inland on a short drive to Mariner’s Lookout. Make sure you leave your van or fifth-wheeler behind and note that the walk from the car park on private property is relatively short but has some elevated sections. I’ve found no problems even carrying somewhat heavy camera and tripod equipment. You can stop as you wish and the views as you ascend are well worth the effort. Beneath you is the Apollo Bay township and bay, with its glorious views well out to sea. You’ll want to stop here for some time as this is one of the best lookouts on the Great Ocean Road.

Make sure you don’t miss the Lorne Hinterland’s various falls; there really is something mesmerising about them!

We couldn’t wait to explore the Great Otway National Park so we pointed the Jeep Cherokee towards Maits Rest. Leaving the bitumen car park you’ll descend gradually into the rainforest. As you walk along the boardwalk you’ll see majestic ferns, lichens and huge logs from ancient giant trees, as well as a Myrtle Beach Tree said to be 300 years old. This is a top introduction to this lush national park, and we recommend that follow it up with a drive north from here on good dirt roads towards Beech Forest. On the way, please take my advice and stop at The Redwoods. Back in 1939, these giant sequoias were planted and today – despite being still in their infancy – they are already reaching for the sky and becoming masters of the clouds. Padding along on a thick blanket of leaves beside a clear flowing stream, you have the sense that you are walking with giants. What a humbling experience in this magnificent forest: words really can’t do it justice.

From Beech Forest we headed east along Turton’s Track before dropping almost due south, arriving at Skenes Creek only kilometres north of Apollo Bay on the Great Ocean Road. People often tell us that they would love to have our job and I have to say, after almost four years, we’re even more passionate about travelling this amazing island continent. If there is a major drawback, it must be that we don’t get to spend as much time as you can at spectacular places like those above. We would happily return to the Great Otway in a heartbeat!

Near Beech Forest, be sure to make the time to explore the Redwoods! These Californian Redwoods were planted some 85 years ago and are staggering sight to behold today as their peaks stretch to the skies. Just remember, the gravel road isn’t suitable for caravans or over-sized tows!

Here’s a great day trip for you:  head off for Otway Fly Treetop Adventures, also in the Great Otway National Park north of Apollo Bay. Drive through Lavers Hill and Weeaproinah to get there, and pace yourself, as there is plenty to see and do. I have to admit that the treetop walk was a highlight for us: it’s a unique experience to make your way across a steel bridge suspended high about the treetops. Surrounded by a cool green world, you’ll feel everyday concerns drop away. And please, don’t let any problems with mobility make you reluctantly decide this is not for you. There are buggies available to transport you to the many facilities here. A truly spectacular experience!

Cape Otway Lightstation south-west of Apollo Bay was a revelation. We climbed to the top of the lighthouse guided by a retired lighthouse keeper who brought alive his experiences and regaled us with tales about Bass Strait. You can also see the remains of a radar station, built after the USA lost its first ship to a submarine before entering WWII. That would be enough for one outing in itself, but there’s more! As well as having the opportunity to see what life was life for the early aboriginal peoples who lived here, you can find out a lot about dinosaurs. After all that, you’ll be ready for tea, coffee and/or food served in the previous lighthouse keeper’s cottage. But before you leave, ask about the Cable Station and its history of communications with Tasmania. So much history packed into one small spot on the map!

Cape Otway Lightstation is the oldest surviving lighthouse in Australia! The light has been in operation since 1848 and was often the first sight of Australia for many immigrants after many months at sea.

On the way to the Light station keep an eye out for the entrance to the eco-lodge. This is something special for RVers who want to volunteer their time to help protect the rare spotted quoll or help discover why koalas here are eating out most of their eucalyptus trees. If the idea appeals, contact the lodge in advance, offer your services and see if they have a job for you. Many RVers are keen to give back through volunteering and the CMCA and ACC have many members who are keen to help out whenever possible around Australia. There’s a handy caravan park nearby where you can stay.

Using Apollo Bay as our base we headed for Port Campbell and the Twelve Apostles. You may prefer to stop at Johanna’s Beach some 5km off the highway north of Glenaire as this is one of our top freedom camping spots. Port Campbell and the Twelve Apostles is some 88km west of Apollo Bay, in the Port Campbell National Park. To gain access you must park beside the visitor centre on the opposite side of the road from the Apostles and walk through a tunnel beneath the road.

These large pillars rise from the seas and are in a constant state of change from wind and water. Although there are fewer apostles now than when I first saw them in 1980, they are still simply spectacular.

A short drive north will bring you to the scene of the Loch Ard disaster in 1878, a shipwreck survived only by two young eighteen year olds and – somewhat bizarrely – a ceramic peacock. We took a diversion north to Timboon and on the way visited a chocolate factory which is sure to appeal to any Aussie nomad suffering from chocolate deprivation. On this Twelve Apostles Food Trail we also stopped at Timboon itself to find out about their ice cream and whiskey – a somewhat unlikely combination, one might think!

Returning to the Great Ocean Road we passed through Peterborough and stopped off at the viewing platform in the Bay of Islands Coastal Park, where we could see just how far these statues in the sea extend along the coastline.

From here, Warrnambool was just 50km west. Once more we visited a Cheese Factory and its associated Museum before heading for Flagstaff Hill in Warrnambool. Flagstaff Hill is without a doubt a stellar attraction and you should allow hours to explore and soak up its shipwreck stories and historic village. The staff not only dress up in period costume but guides are highly knowledgeable and are keen to answer questions.

The Great Ocean Road continues beyond Warrnambool, and as a trip that encompasses spectacular coastal views, a brilliant rainforest hinterland, mouth-watering food trails and an engrossing maritime shipwreck history there’s nothing we know of to match it. It’s got to be high on any list of must-do trips.

LOCAL TIP IDEA: Avoid Lorne for the few days before and after New Years’ Eve, when thousands of revellers descend on the town to attend The Falls music and arts festival at a property near Erskine Falls. The traffic in and around the town is very heavy and accommodation is usually fully booked.

CardShark Content - Carl Craig (5/11/2003)

Site Path:
1. The Riddermark (Pull Aragorn)
2. Wold of Rohan (Extra Twilight is Great for my expensive Berserkers)
3. Barrows of Edoras (Very useful when I get a great FP hand to play initially)
4. Ered Nimrais (The chance to get more twilight for my shadow)
5. Deep of Helm (Cheap Uruk’s! What more need I say)
6. Hornburg Armory (I have a lot possessions)
7. Hornburn Causeway (Anti large fellowships)
8. Wizards Vale (Anti Choke)
9. Palantir Chamber (Very handy should your opponent have any burden’s at this site)

Free Peoples (33):
1x Saga of Elendil
1x The Tale of Gil-Galad
3x Aragorn, Heir of Elendil
1x Aragorn’s Bow
2x Faramir Son of Denethor
1x Faramir’s Bow
2x Boromir, Lord of Gondor
3x Sword of Gondor
1x Elrond Herald to Gil-Galad
1x Galadriel Lady of the Golden Wood
3x Last Alliance of Elves and Men
3x Gondor Bowmen
1x Citadel of Minus Tirith
2x Swordsman of the Northern Kingdom
2x Swordarm of the White Tower
1x Gwemegil
1x Asfaloth
1x Sing, Baggin’s Heirloom
1x Sam, Son of Hamfast

Shadow (33):
4x Berserk Rager
3x Berserk Savage
2x Berserk Slayer
4x Broad Bladed Sword
1x Devilry of Orthanc
2x Battering Ram
3x Bled for Battle
3x Uruk Captain
1x Siege Engine
2x Grima Chief Councellor
4x Uruk Fighter
1x Uruk-Hai Rampage
3x Sarumans Ambition

This deck uses a very generic yet potent Free Peoples side, But it’s the Berserk side of this deck that gives you more control. These Berserker’s are great at slowing your opponent down, even more so with the fact that you benefit from your sites if you go second.

The Free Peoples side is quite simple really – in fact the whole deck is, perhaps that’s why it works well I’m not sure? Anyway – the key is to get your guys and possession’s out ASAP BUT be aware of Grima Wormtongue, he’s in nearly every deck out there – and he can surprise any one of us Soooooo…. To fix this, Saga of Elendil is meant for Faramir with his bow (remember he’s Ringbound so Grima WT cant touch him ;-) And in a worse case senario, if you were to pile up everything on Aragorn (eg. Bow, sword, last alliance + saga) then he’s always going to be the ONLY one that can be targeted by Grima WT. All other character’s are designed to only hold 2 possession’s at a time.

This deck doesn’t require athelas incase your wondering? With Elrond, Galadriel + Citadel there is more than enough healing between sanctuaries.

I’ve found that condition removal isn’t that important with my deck – as it is designed to run ahead when needed and to slow down the opponent with my Berserker side of things – so Shadow condition’s don’t have much time to kick in if the game’s going fast (this deck can run well even against Nazgul + Isengard Tracker decks).

You’ve got Swordarm of the White Tower for making a killer Aragorn and Swordsman of the Northern Kingdom to play on any Ranger, which includes Arwen for when you want to totally wipe out a Nazgul or 2 ;-)

The Shadow Berserker side of things is also simple, yet new!
You have your Devilry + Battering Ram Machine’s to keep your opponents a little extra busy + a Siege Engine to keep them safe ;-)
Obviously it’s the Berserker’s that are the key to this deck though. These guys are very powerful and can only get bigger.
With the use of Broad Bladed Swords you can help look after pesky archery decks, a single Bred for Battle played on a Slayer makes him +5 Strength (not to mention any wounds on your opponent giving him another +2 per wound ;-). Saruman’s ambition is there for a few more pumps in strength. The Fighter’s are in there to benefit from large fellowships and the Captain’s in there to recycle those crazy yet nasty Berserkers.

Final Word:
This is a Quite a Competative deck for Standard Format. Although the Berserker side would definitely benefit from Savagery to Match Their Number’s and Saruman Keeper of Isengard in Open Format – I decided to try and keep it on the road of Standard seeing as that’s the main format being spoken of and played here in Brisbane-Australia.
Also notice how there are only 3 cultures in the FP side of things ;-) NO Grima Chief Counsellor is going to hurt you ;-)
