In 1977, the Minister of Tourism, the late Jim Bodden, started the festival now known as Pirates Week to boost tourism during our low season.
He succeeded and the event has grown bigger each year. Music, street dances, District Days, costumes, parades, local food and drinks, song competitions, children’s day, sports events, fireworks and of course the pirates landing including the capture
of the governor. Only in the first day was the
real governor captured (Thomas Russell) and after he was jostled and pushed around a bit too much, it was decided to have an actor play the part ever since.
I had the honour to be that actor thirteen times. Yes, unlucky it was one year when the boat sank carrying me to the shore! To add even more insult as I waded almost chest deep in the sea to the shore a huge water balloon
hit me in the head knocking me down into the sand to much laughter. It was not a dignified entrance.
I did get my own back when, at my last appearance as the governor, the pirates that came ashore to do the capture asked me who was the governor? I was standing alongside my attaché (who was dressed only in a shirt and trousers whilst I had on the full attire – coat and feathered hat) and I pointed to him. He was bound and carted off.

Business leaders have described growing frustration with trying to rebuild Cayman’s economy and put people to work, fearing the Islands are in profound danger if development projects do not start soon.
In a series of full-page advertisements, at least 33 business owners have signaled support for the Dart Realty-government ForCayman Investment Alliance, a $1.2 billion 30-year development programme that proposes an immediate outlay of $200 million in the next 12 months.
Sparked by Thompson Development Group Director Gene Thompson, the “Make it Happen Cayman” plea points to high unemployment and stagnant investment, saying the alliance will stimulate the economy, put people back to work and create business opportunites.
While Mr Thompson -- heading Dr Devi Shetty’s Narayama Cayman hospital project, initially forecast
to break ground in October – was unavailable off-island, others described the situation.
“It’s frustrating,” said A.L. Thompson, owner of A.L. Thompson Building Supplies. “You have people protesting, saying it’s just not right, but people need work, and the Dart organsation has been really helpful in keeping this economy going in the last two years.
“Closing 2,500 feet of the West Bay Road frees up land that could be developed and provide jobs,” he said, alluding to community protests against rerouting the road between Public Beach and the Cayman Islands Yacht Club.
The “Open Letter to the People of the Cayman Islands” affirms support for both the road closure and concomitant extension of the Esterley Tibbetts Highway, calling it ‘a matter of the utmost urgency” to sign the Dart-government contract and “jump start our economy”.
Earlier this week, Premier McKeeva Bush told iNews Cayman “this
country will die” without both the Dart agreement and the cruise-port-construction deal with China Habour Engineering Company. Due to be signed this month, Mr Bush was, however, unable to name a date for either, citing various “setbacks”.
“If we continue to stop every project, we will end up back under the coconut trees,” said Tortuga Rum founder--owner Robert Hamaty. “No one wants to destroy the environment, but you have to think: What’s good for the country, for jobs, for your children growing up?.”
Architect Burns Conolly, whose Emerald Sounds development was thwarted this week by elected officials, said the “Make it Happen” group was a product of “pure frustration.”
“Nothing is happening in the country, and people need to pay their mortgages and get back to work. The banks are taking their homes. Dart is willing to invest, to spend $200 million in the next two years, while the Bahamas are trying to get them to leave Cayman. And we are getting people objecting.”
The Cayman Islands Miss Festival Queen competition got the Pirates Week festivities off to a colourful and glamourous start. That was followed by the Steel Pan competition, divided into Junior and Senior steel bands. The Juniors represented schools St Ignatius Triple C, Grace Christian Academy and Cayman Prep.
St Ignatius finished fourth, Triple C was third, Grace Christian Academy came second and Cayman Prep won.
In the Senior Category were three teams. The winners Paneramers won, in second place was Pandemics and in third place came Pandemonium.
Miss East End, Kasey Bodden won the Miss Festival Queen competition with a beautiful shell costume. Miss Bodden Town, Tori Miller came second, in a wearing a wonderful dress embroidered with sea animals, including a lovely stingray.
Miss North Side, Mariah Forbes wore a beautiful undersea costume complete with a real sea fan, and Miss West Bay, Tiffany Conolly, looked stunning in a costume with two big wings which depicted the sea world.
Miss George Town, Melissa Rankine wore a lovely green dress, depicting the mangroves, and Miss Cayman Brac, Sophia Johnson was wearing an outfit that was truly fit for a queen.

Beacon Group acquisition
Cayman-based Caledonian Global Financial Services has announced the acquisition of the Beacon Group of companies, which is based in the British Virgin Islands and comprises Beacon Capital Management, Beacon Fund Advisors and Beacon Fund Administrators.Beacon is a provider of fiduciary
services, fund management and administration, and other investment services in both the BVI and Cape Town, South Africa. While regulatory approvals are pending, this transaction will serve to reinforce Caledonian’s international presence.Caledonian Fund Services’ assets
under administration will increase to USD5bn, transforming the group into one of the strongest administrators in the jurisdictions that they operate. Caledonian Fiduciary Services footprint will also be strengthened through the addition of these two new offices.Beacon’s founder, David Sims,
has 20 years of experience in fund administration and will assume the global managing director role for the Caledonian Funds Group, but no other changes will be made through the organisational structure at this time.Sims says the combination of
the two companies gives the group the opportunity to leverage resources and reach a larger market. Beacon employees will join Caledonian, but will continue to work in the BVI and Cape Town offices to service clients.“Our vision for Caledonian is
bold; it is to diversify our financial offerings through pioneering services and technology. Beacon’s team and services perfectly fit within our mission and we are now uniquely positioned,” says Kobi Dorenbush chief executive of Caledonian Global Financial Services.

Cayman’s new green teamThe Corporate Green Team Network was set up in June 2009 after representatives from the Sustainable Development Unit of the Department of Environment (DoE) met with accountancy firm, Deloitte, to discuss ways of making Cayman a greener place to life.
“The Department and Deloitte realised there was quite a few corporate organisations who had these networks in place and that it would be good if they got together and there was a forum for them to share ideas and make grass-roots level changes to the community,” said the Department’s Environmental Assessment Officer Wendy Williams.
The Corporate Green Team Network was the result of that meeting.
“It’s for corporate entities that have existing Green teams and networks within their organisations who look to promote sustainable initiatives and stewardship of the environment,” explained the Department’s Wendy Williams.
The very first campaign, Called
Cayman BECOME, began just over a year ago, when Network representatives approached all the supermarkets, to see if they’d replace their single use shopping bags with strong cloth bags that shoppers could use over and over again. The idea was to cut down on the thousands of plastic shopping bags that end up at the landfill. “Kirk’s, Foster’s and Hurley’s were very supportive. The reusable bags were introduced and they started charging five cents for the plastic bags. I think it’s really been a big positive step forward,” Ms Williams said.
Cayman Become initially appeared to be a big success, and supermarkets reported an 80% reduction in the number of plastic bags they were giving out. But recently people have begun slipping back into their old, non-green ways,
“I think that they’ve recognized that charging five cents per bag is not a significant deterrent - I think that they’d rather educate people to be responsible in their shopping patterns and actually for them to take the choice to bring their bags in,” Ms Williams said.
“So we all feel that trying to encourage positive behavior, and so we’re moving to Phase Two of the campaign,” she said.
After discussion with all the supermarkets, it was agreed that every second Saturday of the month starting from the 10th of December, supermarkets would remove the option of purchasing a plastic bag.
“The second phase is that, every second Saturday of the month, starting on the tenth of December, the shoppers won’t have the option to purchase a five cent single-use plastic bag - shoppers can either take their bags from home, and fill them out with their shopping, or purchase a reusable bag from the supermarkets,” Ms Williams explained.
The network has also started an aluminium can recycling programme after an employee from KPMG accounting firm, who had already begun aluminium can recycling project at the KPMG offices, told the Network about it.
The Network decided to expand the programme, and currently three condo developments, George Town Villas, Emerald Beach Club and Cayman Crossing have come onboard. They each have special dustbins, with big green recycling signs on them, just for aluminium cans. When a bin is full up with the cans, a phone call is made to Tim Frey who runs of a local company called Recycling Services, who comes to collect the cans which are then sent off island in containers.

The Cancer Society has played an integral
role in the kick-off and opening of our children’s Summer
Camp. Their Project Coordinator, Vicki
Anderson, attended our first week of
Summer Camp and spoke to our campers about the importance
of sun safety and using sunscreen,
hats, and long clothing to prevent
sun damage and skin cancer. The
presentation was engaging,
informative, and tailored to our young audience. It was the
perfect way to set the standard for summer
sun safety for our children and the entire Summer Camp. We are
looking forward to the Cancer Society’s return for our next
summer season!

Billy Crystal returning to host the OscarsLOS ANGELES (AP) — Billy Crystal is doing it again.
The 63-year-old comedian and veteran Oscar host said Thursday on Twitter that he is hosting this season’s Academy Awards “so the young woman in the pharmacy will stop asking my name when I pick up my prescriptions.”
“Some of the best moments of my career have happened on the Oscar stage,” said Crystal in a later statement from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. “I am thrilled to be back there.”
This will be the ninth Oscar stint
for Crystal, one of the most popular Oscar hosts of recent years. His last time was in 2004. Only Bob Hope hosted more Oscar shows, with 19 ceremonies between 1940 and 1978.
Academy president Tom Sherak called Crystal “a comic legend and Oscar icon, and it feels good to have him back where he belongs.”
The naming of Crystal follows a groundswell of sentiment for his return after he led a tribute to Bob Hope on the 2011 Oscar show for which he received a standing ovation. Crystal said later he was moved by the warm reception and
that “it might be fun” to host the show again.
New Greek cabinet to be sworn inATHENS, Greece (AP) — Greece’s incoming prime minister is due to name his cabinet Friday, a day after being appointed to head an interim coalition government that will push through a new European debt deal and secure continued bailout funding to prevent a catastrophic default.
Former European Central Bank vice president Lucas Papademos held talks with the country’s main political parties late into Thursday night to determine who would staff his cabinet, ahead of the formal swearing in Friday afternoon.
The appointments are a delicate balancing act for Papademos as he seeks broad support for his administration. The swearing-in ceremony was delayed
by two hours to 4 p.m. (1400GMT), the president’s office said, without giving a reason.
Papademos’ appointment capped two weeks of a political crisis that threatened to derail an EU plan to get a grip on the Greek debt crisis and raised questions about the country’s continued presence in the eurozone.
“The participation of our country in the eurozone is a guarantee for the country’s monetary stability. It is a driver of financial prosperity,” the incoming premier said Thursday after being given the mandate to form a government.
Papademos must now implement the terms of Greece’s latest debt deal — a
euro130 billion ($177 billion) agreement reached on Oct. 27. It includes provisions for private bondholders to forgive 50 percent — or some euro100 billion — of their Greek debt holdings.
Detroit prayer event puts Muslim community on edgeDETROIT (AP) — An area with one of the largest Muslim communities outside the Middle East is bracing itself for a 24-hour prayer rally by a group that counts Islam among the ills facing the U.S.
The gathering in Detroit at Ford Field, the stadium where the Detroit Lions play, starts Friday evening and is designed to tackle issues such as the economy, race, same-sex relationships and abortion. But the decade-old organization known as TheCall has said Detroit is a “microcosm of our national crisis” in all areas, including “the rising tide of
the Islamic movement.”Leaders of TheCall believe a satanic
spirit is shaping all parts of U.S. society, and it must be challenged through intensive Christian prayer and fasting. Such a demonic spirit has taken hold of specific areas, Detroit among them, organizers say. In the months ahead of their rallies, teams of local organizers often travel their communities performing a ritual called “divorcing Baal,” the name of a demon spirit, to drive out the devil from each location.
“Our concern is that we are literally being demonized by the
organizers of this group,” said Dawud Walid, executive director of Council on American-Islamic Relations’ Michigan chapter, which last week urged local mosques and Islamic schools to increase security.
Can you feel it – it’s in the air
Can you feel it – it’s everywhere
It’s November and the skies are clear
Cool Christmas breezes blowing everywhere
Our first Northwester for the season rolled in last week
That’s the sign of our ‘winter’ with skies so bleak
Powerful and dangerous seas if you’re caught in the roll
Turning and throwing tons of sand up on the shore
We had some heavy rains but no real flooding
It was the perfect weather for the beach and walking
The ocean is shades of blue just what we all like
And the sky is so blue and the clouds so white
Today there are four cruise ships visiting our shores
This is a good sign and I certainly hope there will be more
Here’s hoping they will continue visiting throughout the season
Swimming and diving, the sunshine, the people, what better
reason
This weekend we celebrate Veterans Day
Poppies are on sale so give generously in a big way
Just remember the boys and the girls that went across
Fighting for peace for us all at their loss
Our National Festival is exciting and fun for all
Locals and visitors alike will be having a ball
So stop what you’re doing, come and join the crowd
You won’t hear yourself speak enjoyment will be loud
However, the air I’m feeling is a different kind of air
It’s a breeze that blows so sweet this time of year
Here in Cayman it’s called the ‘Christmas Breeze’
It’s fresh, it’s cool, and it’s always free!
Do you feel it? It’s here. Do you feel it? It’s there
That Christmas Breeze, you feel it everywhere
Enjoy the coming Season, get out while you can
Join your friends and family, every woman and every man.

I have written a number of articles on the rollover issue and my opposition to
it. I am a paper Caymanian so the Independent Member for North Side, Ezzard Miller, may not be interested in them. My views are totally in line with the publisher, Joan (Watler) Wilson, whom was very outspoken in her opposition when it was introduced by the very party she supported (at that time). Everything she forecast unfortunately has come true.
I have always respected Mr. Miller and I am puzzled at his insistence that it is “incompetent government and the high cost of doing business that has caused Cayman’s economic difficulties and that the idea that immigration policy is preventing the country from attracting ‘high net worth’s’ or investors, as claimed by both the premier and Anthony Travers at the recent Generation Now debate, is a red herring.”
I can agree with him regarding his comments of “incompetent government” and the “high cost of doing business” here are certainly contributing factors. I would
add, however, on top of the ROLLOVER POLICY.The new Term Limit Extension Period (TLEP) to avoid
Rollover is a giant step in the right direction providing the fears Mr. Miller rightly voices have the necessary safeguards. Mr. Miller’s concerns are that the issue of legal and human rights to residency after a given period may raise its head again with the workers who are granted a TLEP some of whom will have been living in Cayman for more than nine years when their new permit expires.
Sherri Bodden-Cowan, Chairperson of the TLEP, denies this will happen. She says any suggestion to the contrary is scaremongering. The TELP allows workers who were due to leave the island under the seven year limit to stay for another two years subject to the usual conditions. The law, however, states they cannot apply for residency and will not be able to use this permit as a road to status.
As long as Mr. Miller stays I don’t think any Caymanian, indigenous or paper, will need to worry about Government giving citizenship to persons coming here to work.

Corsets: the old and the new
Women have worn corsets for thousands of years. In fact the oldest corset dates back to ancient Minoans from around 2000 BC. When most people think of corsets they think of the heavy bulky garments from the middle ages of Europe. Traditional corsets were heavy, restrictive and very uncomfortable to wear. As fabric technology has improved corsets are now not only more comfortable but are being worn as outwear.
By wearing a tightly laced corset for extended periods - a practice known as tight-lacing - men and women can learn to tolerate extreme waist constriction and reduce their natural waist size. Tight-lacers usually aim for 40 to 43 centimetres (16 to 17 inch) waists. The Guinness Book of World Records records two instances of women reducing to 15 inch waists: Ethel Granger and Cathie Jung. Other women, such as Polaire, also claim to have achieved such reductions.
These are extreme cases. Corsets were and are usually designed for support, with freedom of body movement an important consideration in their design. Present day corset-wearers usually tighten the corset just enough to reduce waists to dimensions that range from 18 to 24 inches.
As a result of the above many people still believe all corsets are uncomfortable and wearing them restricts women’s lives, citing Victorian literature devoted to sensible or hygienic dress. However, these writings were most apt to protest against the misuse of corsets for tight-lacing; they were less vehement against corsets per se. Many reformers recommended “Emancipation bodices”, which were essentially tightly fitted vests, like full-torso corsets without boning.
Most women don’t own or have never worn a corset. However if
you’re looking for a fashion garment that accentuates your curves and bust line, a corset can be your best friend. A corset is a garment that covers your lower torso from bust line to waist. The sides have curved shaped ribbing that gives your body the classic hourglass shape. These ribs are usually made a thin lightweight metal or hard plastic. While these ribs do push your body into certain shapes, they aren’t ‘trainer’ corsets that pose health hazards to your internal organs. To wear a corset, first loosen the strings that are located on the back of the garment. There is usually a zipper in the front of the corset, unzip it and wrap the garment around your torso. Align it so the strings are in the back and close the zipper. Now grab the strings and gently but firmly pull to tighten. Pull the strings until the corset is snug and firm. Do not pull the strings so tight that you can’t move or breathe comfortably. The first thing that you’ll notice is your bust line is now enhanced and you will probably be showing more cleavage than you are used to. While this is normal it does take some getting used to. Many women with a large bust find a corset is more comfortable to wear, as it gives them more support than a standard bra.
Most corsets fall into the category of intimate apparel. They come in a wide variety of fabrics such as satin,
silk, or lace and an array of colours. You can find something that allows you to be as modest or daring as you desire. If your corset comes with a garter belt and stockings be sure to put on the stockings before the corset, it’s just easier. Corsets are also moving out of the bedroom and being worn as outwear. There, corsets are very similar to traditional corsets but available in decorative and luxurious fabrics. They may not be appropriate for a Monday morning office staff meeting but are great for an informal party or night at a club. If you’ve never worn a corset and would like to try one start with an outwear corset first, they are generally easier and more comfortable to wear.
However, moderate corset lacing is not incompatible with vigorous activity. In fact, during the late nineteenth century, when corset wearing was common, there were sport corsets specifically designed to wear while cycling, playing tennis, or horseback riding, as well as for maternity wear.
Most modern day corset-wearers will testify that corsets can be comfortable, once one is accustomed to wearing them. A well fitted corset should be very comfortable. Women active in the Society for Creative Anachronism and historical re-enactment groups commonly wear corsets as part of period costume, without complaint.

From China to New York, place your bets! Tie the knot! Make a wish!
Friday marked the 11th day of the 11th month of 2011. Around the world, people celebrated the triple convergence of 11s with a splash.
Some 1,000 ethnic Chinese couples exchanged vows across Malaysia on a date viewed as auspicious and romantic. In China, a special “1111” train started at 11:11 a.m. on the No. 11 line in Shanghai.
“The numbers rhyme with one husband, one wife and one soul in Chinese and signifies a marriage that would last a lifetime,” said nurse Pua Kim Giok, 25, who tied the knot with engineer Lee Chin Siong, 27. They were among 460 couples who got married at the popular Thean Hou Temple in Kuala Lumpur.
Not everyone was smiling, however. Egypt’s antiquities authority closed the largest of the Great Pyramid of Giza following rumors that groups would try to hold spiritual ceremonies on the site at 11:11.
The authority’s head Mustafa Amin said in a statement Friday that the pyramid of Khufu, also known as Cheops, would be closed until Saturday morning for “necessary maintenance.”
The closure followed a string of unconfirmed reports in local media that unknown groups would try to hold “Jewish” or “Masonic” rites on the site.
Amin said all reports of planned ceremonies at the site were “completely lacking in truth.” The rest of the complex, which includes two other large pyramids, numerous tombs and the Sphinx, and is one of Egypt’s biggest tourist attractions, remained open Friday, though security appeared to be heavier than usual.
In the U.S., the Trump Taj Mahal in Atlantic City, N.J., was planning drawings every 11 minutes for up to $1,111.
In Las Vegas, Clark County Clerk Diana Alba got ready for an onslaught of weddings. She was expecting the number of couples to
surpass the crowd on 08/08/08 and equal the throng on 10/10/10. It may not, however, reach the turnout seen on July 7, 2007 — a date that consists of three lucky sevens.
“That was like the granddaddy of all dates,” Alba said.
Bryan Savage of Oklahoma City was among those tying the knot on 11-11. He said the number 11 is meaningful to him and his fiancée, Tara Melton, because his birthday is in November and they met in November.
“It’s just kind of cool and we didn’t really want Valentine’s Day or a holiday, but we just wanted something memorable,” he said.
Plus, he said, it will be easier to remember his anniversary.
In Des Moines, Iowa, Dr. Ross Valone, an obstetrician-gynecologist, will refund any fees he collects from delivering babies Friday. In Bellevue, Wash., Jason Brown will open his new grocery store at 11:11 a.m.
Vikki MacKinnon, a numerologist in Calgary, Ontario, said she expected the day to be a “cosmic wake-up call.”
“Eleven is a number of illumination and enlightenment, a number of insight, blinding flashes of the obvious, and a number of transformation,” she said.
The Chinese have always had a fascination with number sequences.
And in a country where ages of
first marriages are creeping upward, the 11/11/11 date represents six “bare sticks,” a term for bachelors in Chinese.
And there are now more of them, with housing prices, focus on jobs and growing independence of young women meaning people are getting married later.
“It’s just difficult for men to afford the housing prices nowadays, and traditionally in China that is the responsibility of the man his family. I feel a lot of pressure from this,” said Zheng An, a 26-year-old employee at a solar company in Shanghai.

On 4 November 2011, independent legal directory “Legal 500” revealed the Cayman Islands law firm rankings in its 2011 edition. Described as “the best law firm in the Cayman Islands”, Maples and Calder was the only firm to consistently retain the coveted “first tier” ranking in every practice area.
The Corporate & Commercial category, jointly comprising the corporate and finance groups, placed Maples and Calder in tier 1 for another year, with the added distinction of being the sole Cayman Islands law firm to hold this ranking. Clients were impressed that Maples and Calder ‘always meets deadlines and the advice is commercially useful’.
Heads of their respective areas of practice, Alasdair Robertson (finance), Tim Frawley (insurance), Justin Appleyard (trusts) and George Loutas (real estate) were specifically mentioned along with several other partners, whom the directory recommended as
well regarded and widely praised. The Commercial Litigation &
Dispute Resolution group also returned to the top position, headed by Aristos Galatopoulos who ‘has the wonderful gift of conveying complex legal issues in everyday language’. Mac Imrie, Colin McKie and Matthew Crawford were described as ‘excellent litigators’ by clients.
Further success was achieved by the Investment Funds, Insurance/Reinsurance, Real Estate and Trusts/Private Client groups, each of which earned tier 1 status on their inaugural ranking in Legal 500. Noting that the firm is ‘consistent across the board’ with ‘very knowledgeable and experienced lawyers who are also business savvy and practical in their approach to problem solving’, the directory mentioned several deals including the third largest private equity deal launched in 2010.
Among many of the firm’s lawyers who earned accolades in Legal 500,
the ‘highly thought of’ Jon Fowler, head of investment funds, and the ‘great and’ ‘incredibly responsive and very thoughtful’ Iain McMurdo, head of private equity, came highly recommended.
“Maples and Calder has consistently achieved top tier ratings and our clients and competitors alike acknowledge us as the market leader in each of our principal practice areas,” said Paul Lumsden, Cayman Managing Partner and head of the corporate group. “The Legal 500 rankings are a testament to the dedication and hard work of our teams and the commitment to deliver the highest quality of legal advice to our clients. We are proud of our reputation as an innovative, entrepreneurial firm, and we strive hard to maintain it.”
Maples and Calder has also maintained first tier rankings in IFLR, Chambers and Partners and PLC Which Lawyer directories for each of its core practice areas.

NEW YORK (AP) — By the third time around, it really shouldn’t be a surprise. The latest “Call of Duty” video game set a first-day sales record this week, generating $400 million in sales in its first 24 hours in stores. That breaks the record its predecessor set this time last year.
“Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3” is the third game in the military shooter series to set such a record. Last year, “Call of Duty: Black Ops” raked in
$360 million in its first 24 hours on sale. “Call of Duty, Modern Warfare 2,” sold 4.7 million copies in its first 24 hours to reap $310 million
The latest installment of the game from Activision Blizzard Inc. went on sale at midnight Tuesday in North America and the U.K.
Activision said Friday the game sold 6.4 million units in its first 24 hours.
A rival shooter game from Electronic Arts Inc., “Battlefield 3,”
meanwhile, sold 5 million units in its first week in stores last month, making it the fastest-selling game in EA’s history.
The figures show there’s a big appetite for big shooter games this holiday season, boding well for their publishers and retailers such as GameStop Corp.
Shares of Activision Blizzard slipped 16 cents to $12.82 in morning trading Friday.

Cayman bowlers began well and restricted Jamaica in the first 10 overs. The stage was set for Ladel Farquharson the most explosive batsman in Cayman Islands.

Venezuela hunts for Ramos and his kidnappersCARACAS, Venezuela (AP) — Venezuelan authorities said Friday they are confident they can quickly solve the kidnapping of Washington Nationals catcher Wilson Ramos.
The abduction on Wednesday was the first known kidnapping of a major leaguer in a country that has scores of players on big league rosters, and it has brought a renewed focus on rising violent crime in Venezuela.
Deputy Justice Minister Edwin Rojas said investigators are making progress in gathering evidence and have physical descriptions of the kidnappers based on the accounts of relatives.
“We have faith in the quick resolution of this case,” Rojas told state television. He said President Hugo Chavez’s government “is working 24 hours a day to solve this case.”
Armed men seized Ramos at gunpoint Wednesday outside his home in a working-class neighborhood in the city of Valencia. Authorities said Thursday that they had found a stolen SUV used by the kidnappers abandoned
in a nearby town.Neighbors held a candlelight vigil outside his
home and prayed for Ramos, as did fans at a baseball game in Valencia on Thursday.
At games in three Venezuelan stadiums Thursday night, players and fans observed a minute of silence in support of Ramos. Some held signs reading: “Free Wilson Ramos!”
Teams added green to their uniforms, some sporting a green ribbon on one shoulder, others a green “W’’ for Wilson embroidered on their jerseys.
Security has increasingly become a concern for Venezuelan players and their families as a rising wave of kidnappings has hit the wealthy as well as the middle class.
Venezuelan police said 618 kidnappings were reported in 2009, and the numbers have grown rapidly in recent years. In 1998, when Chavez was elected, just 52 kidnappings were reported. Security experts say the real number of kidnappings today is much higher because many cases aren’t reported to authorities.

Tiger Woods has shot of the day
SYDNEY (AP) — It was the shot of the day Friday at the Australian Open, and one that made the Tiger Woods of today look ominously like the one of yesterday.Standing about 280 yards
from the green on the par-5 eighth hole at The Lakes, Woods grabbed his 3-wood, flushed it with a slight fade into a brisk breeze and rolled it on to the green. Two putts later, his birdie helped him to a 5-under 67 and a one-stroke lead over Australian veteran Peter O’Malley going into the weekend.That impressed one of his
playing partners, Australian Robert Allenby, who missed the cut after rounds of 75-73, but who still seemed to enjoy the front-row seat to Woods’ apparent resurgence.“Probably in the last six
months, that’s the best I’ve seen him play,” Allenby said in the scorers’ area while Woods was mobbed by autograph seekers. “I’ve seen him at his absolute best ... that was a different human being. He’s on his way back, that’s for sure.“I think where he is right now
is good enough to win. I think you’ll find if he keeps going the way he is going, he’ll win over the weekend.”Woods, who was at 9-under
135, thought Friday’s round might even have been better — “it felt it could have been 8 or 9 deep.”

Frank to lead England
Fabio Capello has confirmed that Frank Lampard will captain England against Spain on today - but John Terry will return as skipper against Sweden.
But the England manager insists Terry - who is subject of a police inquiry over claims he racially abused QPR’s Anton Ferdinand - is innocent until proven guilty of those allegations.
“I decided everything [selection-wise] before what happened,” said Capello.
“He will be on the bench against Spain but play against Sweden on Tuesday.”
Capello insists Chelsea defender Terry has his full support while the Football Association and police probe claims of alleged racist abuse against him.
“He is innocent until proven guilty,” the England manager added.
“Absolutely. I need to respect every
decision but I cannot speak about it.”It will be the second time Lampard
has captained his country - and the Chelsea midfielder insists team-mate Terry was fine, despite the allegations against him.
Lampard, who was skipper when England defeated Denmark 2-1 in Copenhagen in February 2011, said: “He’s coping just fine - as he’s always coped.
“We’ve always had our moments in football, me included, but he has a very strong character. When he plays on Tuesday - or in the future - you will still see the same John Terry.
“There’s always a lot of respect in the dressing room and that will remain.
“I’ve worked with John for a long time professionally and he’s always been a fantastic friend and colleague.
“Nothing has been said. It has been business at usual.”
Capello confirmed that Phil Jones will start in midfield but refused to reveal any more details about
the side he will field against world champions Spain.
Meanwhile, Gabriel Agbonlahor has been ruled with a hamstring injury.
The Aston Villa striker has returned to his club after suffering the injury in training - ending his hopes of winning his fourth cap.
“Gabriel Agbonlahor has this morning returned to Aston Villa,” said a statement from the FA.
“Having been assessed by the England medical staff, Agbonlahor is unable to train and has returned to his club.”
Agbonlahor has scored five Premier League goals this season, including Villa’s second in last Saturday’s 3-2 win over Norwich.
Before their final training session ahead of the friendly, England’s players and coaching staff held a two minutes’ silence in the Wembley centre circle in honour of Remembrance Day.
