Anyone who has flown to Victoria or gone there by ferry via the Swartz Bay terminal has driven past Sidney, known locally as Sidney-by-the-Sea. Few turn in, though. The fast-food restaurants and big-box stores at the mouth of the town don’t do much to lure you off Hwy. 17. But those who take the exit ramp will discover a charming town, a mix of British seaside and Pacific Northwest community engagement.
Last year, I was based in Sidney while exploring the surrounding Saanich Peninsula’s emerging foodie culture — nascent vineyards and cideries, family enterprises making handcrafted gin and raw chocolate. But I was also pleasantly surprised to discover Sidney’s other angle: Inspired by Hay-on-Wye, the medieval Welsh town known for its many secondhand and antiquarian bookstores, Sidney, population 11,000, is a bibliophile’s paradise — with no fewer than 12 independent specialty bookstores. There are rare, collectible and bargain books, with topics ranging from military history to gardening. And, yes, there are enough Stieg Larssons to go around.

A government media tour to promote tourism in southwestern Mexico went awry when the 13 reporters on the trip were briefly kidnapped by machete-wielding indigenous communal landowners, officials said Sunday. Fifteen people trying to film a beer commercial were also abducted.
Nobody was harmed during the abductions Saturday, said a Michoacan state government official who spoke on condition of anonymity because she was not authorized to speak to the media. Government officials were still negotiating Sunday to recover the cameras and other media equipment stolen by the Nahua Indians.
The indigenous group was upset that Grupo Modelo, the maker of Corona beer, had not asked their permission to film the commercial on their property, said the official.
They first kidnapped the Mexican reporters after mistaking them for the Grupo Modelo team, the official said.

Toy Story 3, which had a 100% Fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes until he dared to dislike it.
And then came the uproar. Like clockwork. People who don't understand what an opinion is have been up in arms all day, Tweeting and writing blog posts about what a monster this man is that he should break Toy Story 3's streak of positive reviews. Apparently Toy Story 3 was on track to be the most positively reviewed movie in the history of Rotten Tomatoes, which is some major achievement if you treat movies like a sporting event.
White is a critic at The New York Press, an alt-weekly that a few years ago I thought was going to become the new Village Voice. It never quite happened, and White, who was always a little... off, seems to have slowly drifted into sheer insanity. According to Rotten Tomatoes he agrees with the Tomatometer 52% of the time, which is I'm sure meaningful to someone who thinks statistics has a place in the discussion of art. The fact of the matter is that White seems to embrace movies that most folks hate while shitting on movies most folks love; this week he trashed Toy Story 3, as mentioned, and gave the awful Jonah Hex a glowing review.
Winds in excess of 70 mph were recorded as the storm whipped through Boone County eastward to Cook County, according to the National Weather Service.
The afternoon skies quickly darkened as the storm rolled into Chicago on Friday, knocking down trees, blowing garbage above high-rise buildings and sending glass flying from downtown buildings, including near the city's most iconic skyscraper.
"You know how icicles fall? It was just falling like that," said Cynthia Garcia, a clerk at a Walgreens store across from the building previously known as the Sears Tower. "People started running in."
Windows were blown out in a 29th-floor air-conditioning mechanical room and a 25th-floor unoccupied office, Chicago Battalion Chief Michael Gubricky said. He said at least two other windows on the 110-story building were cracked.
Police roped off areas around the tower, where shattered glass littered surrounding sidewalks, and blocked traffic as engineers surveyed the damage. No injuries were reported at the building, said police spokeswoman Antoinette Ursitti. A message left Friday for a Willis Tower spokesman was not immediately returned.
