You may not detect familiar dance rhythms or tunes in it, because Zenón selected melodies rooted deep into Puerto Rico’s folklore to create an imaginative and multilayered chamber music opus.

PRN-Latino News from mikenova (16 sites)
Authorities Search for More Than 100 Missing in California Wildfires SAN FRANCISCO – Authorities and emergency services were still searching on Sunday for more than 100 people missing in the area affected by the large wildfire that has been burning since Thursday in northern California and that, together with another fire in the south, has already left 25 people dead.The California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection, Cal Fire, warned that the conditions did worsen again on Sunday because of strong winds after the brief weather break on Saturday which allowed firefighters to advance in their fight against the flames.The so-called “Camp Fire” has almost completely devastated the town of Paradise, with 26,000 inhabitants, located about 280 kilometers northeast of the San Francisco Bay area, where a red alert has been active since Thursday because of poor air quality due to smoke from the fire.In addition to taking the lives of at least 23 people, the fire has destroyed more than 6,500 buildings, mostly in Paradise, and it is already considered the most devastating in the history of the state.The 23 death, on the other hand, make it the third deadliest fire the most populous state in the United States has ever experienced, just behind the fire of Griffith Park in Los Angeles in 1933 (29 dead) and Oakland Hills in 1991 (25 death).According to Cal Fire data, 4,050 firefighters are working on extinguishing the fire, which has already burned 44,100 hectares and is only contained to 25 percent.The origin of the fire remains unknown and Cal Fire spokeswoman Janet Upton said that investigators are exploring all possible causes, “including the possibility that the fire started from a spark of electrical equipment.”The state’s largest gas and electric service company, Pacific Gas & Electric Co.

Latin American Herald Tribune: Boca, River Battle to 2-2 Draw in 1st Leg of Copa Libertadores Final

PRN-Latino News from mikenova (16 sites)
Boca, River Battle to 2-2 Draw in 1st Leg of Copa Libertadores Final BUENOS AIRES – Boca Juniors and River Plate battled to a 2-2 draw in the first leg of the Copa Libertadores final on Sunday.Ramon Abila and Dario Benedetto scored for Boca, while Lucas Pratto and Carlos Izquierdoz – the latter on an own goal – scored for the visitors.Abila scored in the 34th minute at La Bombonera stadium in Buenos Aires to get Boca – the home squad, coached by Guillermo Barros Schelotto – on the board with a powerful shot that was deflected by goaltender Franco Armani right back to the shooter, who fired again, this time for the 1-0.However, just a few moments later River’s Lucas Pratto received the ball deep in the area and managed to fire the tying shot into the net.In the final minute of first-half play, a free kick by Boca’s Sebastian Villa set up a header into the top left corner of the net by Dario Benedetto to put their squad over the top going into the break.In the 61st minute, it was Boca defender Izquierdoz who knocked a misguided header into his own net, thus handing Matias Biscay’s squad its second equalizer, and there the score remained through the final whistle.The South American Soccer Confederation (Conmebol) said earlier on Sunday that officials led by Chilean referee Roberto Tobar inspected La Bombonera and gave the go-ahead for the archrivals to play the first leg of the Copa Libertadores final.On Saturday, Conmebol, South American soccer’s governing body, had suspended the match – originally scheduled for 5 pm on that day – due to heavy rain in the Argentine capital.The second leg of the series will be played at River Plate’s Monumental Stadium on Nov.
