A record-breaking 3,106 turtle nests have been recorded in Cozumel so far this year, said Rafael Chacón Díaz, the island's head of ecology, last week.

Chacón, who lead's the municipal government's environment and ecology department, said most of the endangered animals' nests were found on the east coast beaches Playa Box and Playa Bonita.

Changes to official international guidelines for the Spanish language mean foreigners may now find it a little easier to learn.

The new standards, which include shortening the Spanish alphabet by 2 letters, were recently approved by Spain's Royal Academy and 21 other language academies from the Spanish-speaking world.

Previously, "ch" and "ll" - pronounced roughly as "che" and "eh-yay" - were considered separate letters in the Spanish alphabet, but now they have been removed.
