New Braunfels Herald Zeitung (Newspaper) - June 24, 1993, New Braunfels, Texas Page 4■ ■ Opinion Herald-ZahungThursday, June 24,1993 QUOTABL E "We In no way seek to condone hateful and bigoted speech. But lf free speech means anything, It means the right to say things unpopular -things that other people disagree with." * Sam Stratman Congressional spokesman, 1992 EDITORIALS 'Make it stick9 Violent criminals must be made to serve their entire sentences A state organization now forming in New Braunfels known as People Against Violent Crime has set a meeting for July 22 at the Senior Citizens Center at 655 Lait da St at 7:30 p.m. At the meeting, petitions which will be available for the members, and interested parties, to sign. The first is a petition asking that the Board of Pardons and Paroles remember the victims, victim s families, friends and the people of Texas when considering the release or parole of convicted individuals. The second petition calls for the amendment of the Code of Criminal Procedure enabling jurors to be told of the prison overcrowding situation and the "good time" rule affect on prison release. The group is calling for the abolishment of the "good rime" rules where only a portion of a sentence may be served after a prisoner is recognized for not having caused problems while in jail. Criminals should be made to understand that there are real penalties for committing crimes. Offenders must serve at least 80 percent of their sentence with a maximum of 20 percent "good time" credit reduction for good behavior and participation in work, substance abuse programs, and education. Citizens may join People Against Violent Crime at die July 22 meeting. The goal is to establish a chapter of that organization to Comal County. We encourage not only participation in this organization by local citizens, but also continued support of stiffer penalties for those who chose to commit crimes.

Drawer 311328 New Braunfels, Texas 78131-1328 Fax:(210)625-1224 Ths Comal County Senior Citizens Foundation's Board of Trustees is a working board. It works hard trying to fulfill the objective of the Foundation • which is to promote interest and partcipation in various charitable, religious, scientific, literary, or educational activities and to operate a center for the benefit of the senior citizens of this community. The assets are used in performance of its charitable functions and support is provided to elderly persons or the handicapped without regard to the beneficiaries' ability to pay. The Board meets the third Wednesday of every month at the Senior Center. There are seventeen board members. There are representatives from the staff from the Bingo Committees and from our Thrift Shop all woiking together. That's why we enjoy the degree of success that we do. We all try to work together. Sometimes tempers flare a little because we are all individuals with definite opinions, but in the end we work it out and are mature adults enough not to walk out on the meeting. At the June 16 meeting it was announced that the Fraternal Order of Eagles had made a monetary donation to help expand our library that the Rotary Club had contributed ths funds to repair our pool and spa and that the Monday Night Square Dancers had provided the means for eight ceiling fans to be purchassd and installed in the ballroom. Our thanks to all these generous organizations that help the Center to continue growing. It is these Marie Dawson generous organizations and individuals that give us both money and time that create the impetus to build a bigger and better- center. Through the actions of the Board, a Long-Range Planning Committee was established to study ways and means to further the continued operation and forward progress of the Senior Center. The overall thrust of the final report was "Do more and better- of what you're doing now." The consensus was not necessarily a case of "grow or go " but one of "employ and enjoy." Employ seniors' time, talents, and skills to permit them to enjoy life more and to help others to do so as well. We are proud of the projects in the works currently and feel that Foundation members and the community at large might all be interested in knowing what they are. The Pool and Spa upgrade and the new, commerical kitchen are major projects. The new Comal County Senior Center sign improves our exterior image. There are plans to promote the center use upgrade member's knowl-edgs of the Foundation and Center, establish Honors Program for ous tan ding volun tests and initiate income project of wills and bequests. Facility maintenance, of course, is an ongoing proposition, both rountine and replacement It is suggested that the exercise equipment be upgraded, repaired, or replaced. It is also suggested that we continue to establish liaison with major community groups, such as, McKenna Hospital, Chamber of Commerce, Rotary, Lions, Kiwanis churches, MHMR and retirement homes. The Foundation should share its knowledge and experiences with the community seeking common ground for mutual support and making this an even better area in which to live. And finally, there is an in-depth study for the expansion of the current facility as our needs grow, and as they have certainly grown over the past two years. The Board is grateful to the Long-Range Planning Committee chaired by Dan Sedgwick, and comprised of Ann Bartholomew, Ken Daniels, Dad Wells, and Max Winkler, for all the time and effort put into this study which should give definite guidelines to the efficacy of money, energy, and time for the future of the Comal County Senior Citizens Foundation. As you can see, we have a working Board, and we have working committees, and working volunteers - all the time. Thank you. PearMrCh^f Justin.

Postmaster: Send address changes to the New Braunfels Herald Zeitung, P.O. Drawer 311328, New Braunfels, Tx. 78131-1328. By DIANE DUSTON Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON (AP) — Here's a tip for television writers on how to cut some of the blood and gore from their programs without losing suspense: Don't think violence, think "creative conflict resolution." Brian Dyak, a veteran TV consultant who already has persuaded many of Hollywood's action-crazies to buckle up and drink more responsibly, now hopes to broker the fight over the issue of television violence. Dyak, of the Entertainment Industries Council, says political threats from Congress and public interest groups — some demanding an end to all violence on television — simply don't sit well with the creative people behind the scripts. "The industry recognizes something needs to be done," he says. But his idea is not to threaten, but to challenge the creators to be even more creative about how "conflict could still be part of the story line" Analysis without spilling blood. Dyak's firm has worked with the movie and television industries since the early 1980s to promote socially responsible programming. He's tackled AIDS awareness, tobacco and drug and alcohol abuse. He's credited with persuading the industry to show its heroes buckling up in their cars. He's eager now to help Hollywood handle the TV violence problem. A major, industry-sponsored summit meeting of movie and TV directors, writers, producers is scheduled Aug. 2 in Los Angeles, and Dyak's group is planning some smaller get-togethers before that with some of the principal conferees. Dyak notes there was no economic risk to the industry in showing its characters wearing seat belts in car scenes. But persuading it to curb violence, a drama tradition as old as acting itself, is another story — especially since there are so many opinions about what constitutes violence. For now, the entertainment industry and the anti-violence public interest groups have wholly different agendas, said Larry Deutschman, Dyak's vice president of creative affairs, who is based in Los Angeles. " At times I think they are talking past each other," he said. In meetings with writers, producers and directors from the major networks and studios, Dyak and Deutschman will ask such questions as these : ■ is the current prevalence of violence in conflict resolution the way we want to portray ourselves to our children? ■ What other stronger, dramatic devices are available? ■ What other alternatives will sell in an era of global markets and an expanding range of channels? Dyak got his start as a school teacher and director of centers for runaway youth. After a career of delinquency prevention, hot lines, free clinics and drug programs, he began looking for new opportunities about 13 years ago. "Because of my work in public policy, I could see that the entertainment community was not as present in public health arenas as it could be," said Dyak. With the help of columnist Jack Anderson and a Hollywood producer, he raised enough money to set up an * office advising the entertainment industry on drug issues. Then, Nancy Reagan took up the anti-drug cause, a Hollywood drug scandal erupted and Dyak's consultancy took off with both government grants and money from the entertainment industry. Dyak worked to remove portrayals of drugs as glamorous, funny or macho and advised the entertainment how to accurately depict consequences of using narcotics. Today in History By Ths Associated Press Today is Thursday, June 24, the 175th day of 1993. There are 190 days left in the year. Today's Highlight in History: On June 24,1948, Communist forces cut off all land and water routes between West Germany and West Beilin, prompting the United Stales to organize a massive akUft of supplies into the city's western sector to counter the blockade.

Five years ago: Pope John Paul II, on a visit to Austria, condemned Nazism during a stopover at the Mauthausen death camp where 110,000 World War A prisoners died. One year ago: The Supreme Court, in a 5-4 decision, strengthened its 30-year ban on officially sponsored worship in pubhc schools, prohibiting prayer as a part of graduation ceremonies.

The third annual Energistics Standards Summit at the Intercontinental Hotel was an opportunity for some 200 industry leaders from around the world to better implement and deploy open-data exchange standards industrywide. Jerry Hubbard is with Energistics.
"Data exchange centers allow companies to interact with each other, to hold their data in the same structure and exchange that between products. So if you're drilling an oil well and you're turning to the right in the Gulf of Mexico and you have a real-time center on shore, the exchange of information from the rig to the onshore real-time center is in a standard. And that standard is used by all vendors on the rig and therefore it's easily archivable by the energy company and easily reusable at another time by the energy company."
Hubbard says having standards allows for quicker access to data by energy companies.
"This firehose of information that comes out of the wells in drilling a well and in producing a well is overwhelming to the energy companies. What do you do with the mass of data? How do you structure it so that it's easily usable and understandable on the receiving end? That's been the challenge, and the challenge has been met by using open-data exchange standards between industry groups."
The standards are freely available because the energy industry pays for development of standards that are used around the globe.

Thungen Financial Markets Update 14th April 2014
Thungen Financial is a financial management company for international investors and expatriates.
Thungen Financial Markets Update 14th April 2014
With what was quite possibly the most dramatic week in the markets so far this year, this week should prove to be relatively quiet as we head towards the long Easter break.
Markets in Asia started out mixed in early trading as Japan continued to feel the pinch of the tech sell off in the US on Friday and continued concerns about its economic recovery. The Nikkei 225 had its worst week in three years posting a 7.3% drop. The sensitive exchange appears to be relatively level so far today and should be able to hold some ground as this week's driving factor for the region will be a host of economic data out of China that will no doubt have an effect on the markets as the week draws on. Of note, data out of China this week includes Foreign Direct Investment figures on Tuesday, Wednesday will be an important day as we will see year to date and quarter on quarter growth figures which are predicted to be down and Retail Sales and Industrial Production which are expected to be up. Less important but still of interest will be Friday's House Price Index. Both the Hang Seng and Shanghai Comp have stayed flat so far and this is a fair indication of what we should expect until we see some positive data from the region and some indication from the US that their markets will start to level out too.
Asian Markets as of 14th April 2014:
Nikkei 13,910.16 -0.36% SSE Comp. 2,130.54 -0.18% Hang Seng 23,033.00 +0.08%
As European indexes struggled to avoid the losses posted in both Asia and the US last week European futures are expected to open lower.
Major news from the ECB this weekend in Washington underlined the European Central Bank's intentions. Speaking at the IMF conference, Mario Draghi, the ECB President confirmed that QE was going to be the way forward if inflation refused to get back inline. This re-iterated previous comments made and should help investors gauge how to play the current situation within the Eurozone. The European Parliament was busy this weekend announcing several new strategies as it heads to its annual break in May. On Tuesday the EU Parliament will sign off on two major reforms that will make it easier for banks in the EU to be closed down, avoiding costly bailouts and the need for tax-payer funds to prop up failing banks. The reforms are aimed to speed up the process of closing down banks that are or have failed. Two other announcements of interest were that for the first time commodity trading would come under regulation to fall in line with stock trading and that the EU Parliament will set up a commission to look into High Frequency Trading, similar to the FBI's current investigation in the US. This week will be the last session before the May break. With elections being fielded in Europe for many of the prestigious positions available in the European Parliament it is fair to say that it will take some time to get the new batch of EMP's together and functioning. Considering that all existing rules will be up for review at least twice in the next Parliament the new commission will probably not be effective until November and this should see new policy changes delayed until early 2015.
European Markets as of 14th April 2014
FTSE 6,522.24 -0.14% Dax 9,262.97 -0.56% CAC40 4,353.54 -0.28%
BEL20 3,050.94 -0.28% Zurich SMI 8,257.27 -0.50% MICEX 1,364.58 -0.22%
US markets ended the week in negative territory after a horrendous week for the local indexes. With all three of the major local bourses posting substantial losses the concerns over many of the tech and biotech stock being over valued continued to plague investors. As earnings season kicked off little late in the week we still saw major sell offs and this saw the NASDAQ down 4.7% month to date. The Dow and S&P 500 didn't fair much better posting losses of 2.6% and 3% respectively for the same period. As with China there are a slew of economic data out of the US this week and the S&P 500 has 54 companies reporting earning this week alone. We will see US Retail sales figures today, CPI Tuesday, Housing and Industrial Output on Wednesday and the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia's Business Activity Index and Initial Jobless Claims late on Thursday. With a short week due to the Easter Holidays and a ton of economic and financial data out this week the local markets could see some serious movement. The one saving grace is that the money coming out of tech and biotech stocks looked to have found a home with more solid "Blue Chips" however as earnings start to be reported this week there could be another tentative week ahead for investors.
US Markets as of 14th April 2014:
S&P500 1,815.69 -0.95% Dow Jones 16,026.75 -0.89% NASDAQ 3,999.73 -1.34%
A short week and almost too much data to fully digest could see less volume than normal in the markets as we head to Easter weekend. China and the US will be the drivers this week and so long as the situation in the Ukraine does not worsen, we should be in a position soon to see some positive moves in the markets.

Rickel said over time, she became interested in how the school board worked, the job it does and the effect it has on the education of children. She said she is an "independent dunker**, and decided running for the board would be a good move. "Children are my highest priority, and our children's education is a high priority with my husband and I,** she said. lf elected, Rickel said she will strive to keep the lines of communication open between her, taxpayers and other board members. She said effective and open communication "is extremely, extremely important." Another top issue for Rickel will be accountability. She said board members need to continually make sure patrons are getting the most for their money, and need to be accountable. "What you want to do is provide the best that you can for your teachers and students with the dollars you have in a responsible manner," she said. Rickel is also confident in the leadership capabilities of incoming superintendent Ron Reaves. She said the great families, students, faculty trustees and administrators put the district is a prime position for success. "New Braunfels does have all of the components to become an exemplary district," said Rickel. "I believe that with all my heart." Rickel added that serving as a trustee would ie both an honor and a privilege "because it is an awesome responsibility to make sure each student succeeds." Also up for election in August are the District I and 4 seats. Sylvia Sanchez currently holds the District I seat. Sanchez has filed for re-election. She will be challenged by computer technician Henry Garza. District 4 became vacant in April when Jaime Padilla resigned with a year remaining on his term. No one has filed for that seat yet. NBISD trustee elections will be held Aug. 9, and filing for a seat on the ballot ends June 25. PEMA denies Texas disaster status By MCHELLE MITTELSTADT Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON (AP) — Texas isn't getting the presidential disaster declaration Gov. George W. Bush requested to deal with the aftermath of the killer tornadoes that hit Central Texas with a vengeance last week. • But that doesn't mean federal help of one sort or another won't be forthcoming. As residents of Jarrell and Cedar Park work to rebuild lives, homes and businesses, they may be eligible for low-interest loans and other relief from the Small Business AfoilulMklluii, the Agriculture Department, and the Department of HousinginTJiban Development. Nonetheless, Bush and other state officials expressed disappointment Friday that they were denied a major disaster declaration and its promise of greater federal bounty. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (ratified Bush that the property devastation from the May 27 twisters, which claimed 28 Police Beat lives, didn't meet the threshold required to trigger the help. "Based upon a review of all available information, we have concluded that the impact of this event is not of the severity and magnitude that warrants a major disaster declaration," FEMA chief James Lee Witt wrote in a letter Friday to Bush. "Recovery costs for this event seem well within the combined capabilities of the state and local governments." Some 239 homes and businesses were destroyed or damaged when the twisters hit May 27, striking Jarrell with the greatest violence. Total damages are estimated at $20 million. Bush, who had voiced concern that his disaster request would be denied, expressed disappointment at the rejection. But, he said: "Texas will continue to do everything possible at the state level to assist the people of Central Texas whose lives were impacted by the tornadoes." SBA will provide low-interest loans for eligible homeowners and businesses not fully covered by private insurance in Williamson, Bell, Travis, Milam, Bastrop, Burnet and Lee counties. And, farmers will be eligible for low-interest Agriculture Department emergency loans to rebuild farm structures, replace lost livestock and compensate for production losses. HUD is allowing Texas to shift nearly $1 million in Community Development Block Grants to rebuilding efforts in the recovering areas. Another $1 million will be available for bousing replacement and repair under the HOME program. Under federal law, a major disaster declaration is given only when the scope of the damage exceeds a state's ability to handle, said FEMA spokesman Morrie Goodman. Federal officials also examine whether there is adequate private insurance coverage and eligibility for SBA help. New Braunfels Police arrested three New Braunfels men early Thursday morning near Loop 337 and Hanz Drive after a witness reported they had broken into Comal Saddlery A Western Wear, police said. The owner, who was working late, confronted the men, ages 25, 19 and 22, at about 1:30 a.m. and saw them take off with a saddle and some pairs of boots, police said. The owner reported the incident to police who made an arrest of the driver a few minutes later and then chased the other two men into a field where they were arrested, police said. The men were charged with burglary of a non-habitation and were held in custody at the Comal County Jail in lieu of $5,000 bonds each, police said. The stolen property was recovered, police said.

"And your total comes to $307.45, m'aam. How would you like to pay?" I recited the words I said at least twenty times a day. "Cash, please." She looked tense. Her baby was wailing, her two twin sons were fighting, and to top it all off, her bill was huge. She handed me a wad of cash. I counted it, put it in the register and she left. "Venice, please come down to aisle 4." I heard over the speakers. I flicked the light on top of my stand off and went down to aisle 4. Magazine department. Ah, hell. "You're taking my shift." The grubby fat man whose name I recall to be Jeremy. "But-" "No buts honey. They trust me here. You want this job, don't you?" I looked down at the barf that was splattered all over the floor and the broom that he handed me. This is going to be a long day.

Park Avenue Summer + Solace
Two new restaurants represent the best, and worst, of the Upper East Side.
Wed Aug 15 2007
Time Out Ratings :Rating: 5/5

The ascent of Tenth Avenue in Chelsea, Park Slope's Fifth Avenue and other burgeoning dining scenes has made the East 60s, home to gourmet warhorses like Daniel, JoJo and Aureole, feel as superseded as a restaurant row can get. An opening, Solace, and a relaunch, the metamorphosis of Park Avenue Café into Park Avenue Summer, aim to bring sexy back to an area whose limited luster has always been burnished by superior restaurants.
The Smith and Wollensky Restaurant Group recently handed the always good, never great Park Avenue Café over to the team—manager Michael Stillman, chef Craig Koketsu and design firm AvroKO—that turned the staid Manhattan Ocean Club into the industrial-chic Quality Meats. With Park Avenue Summer, they've conceived an ode to the legendary Four Seasons, except that the design, the uniforms and the very name (yes, beginning in September, it will be Park Avenue Autumn) will rotate along with the menu.
"Summer" means sunny wall panels and ample clusters of flowers to go with the warm weather foods. Appetizers showcase produce (baby beet salad, corn soup) and seafood (peekytoe crab salad, fluke sashimi), often mixing both with winning results. Seared scallops sit on a bed of diced peaches and sweet pickled onions thickened with tapioca, a deft study in sweetness and texture. Coconut cream cools plump shrimp, crusted with Turkish pepper.
It's no surprise that Koketsu nails the steak, a perfect filet mignon that adheres to the seasonality with a side of raspberry-festooned arugula salad. But even more head-turning is a seared John Dory fillet, the fish's clean taste brought to life by an audaciously rich combo of truffles (both slices and oil) and egg (poached with a fried brioche crust).

Holdover pastry chef Richard Leach, a James Beard Award winner, dazzles with a sweet corn panna cotta, complemented by roasted peaches and adorned with a first in my dining experience: Corn Pops. His very adult signature, moist chocolate cake and whipped mascarpone, suggests that Leach is as serious about sophistication as he is about play.
Solace, per its name, is far less revolutionary. It's a quiet study in cream and yellow, with two small dining rooms and an intimate garden. But things aren't as they should be. The manager, Joe Scalice, a partner at the recently shuttered Nish, is best known for wine. Yet two months in, Solace doesn't have its liquor license. Service bordered on the inept: There were long waits for ordering and receiving food, even when the joint was nearly empty, and a stack of plates sat on my table for no reason for most of the meal.
Like at Park Avenue Summer, the emphasis is American seasonal, but Solace lacks the progressive spirit of the Summer menu. Chef David Regueiro (Aureole) peddles poorly executed standards. Tuna tartare was bland and bitter; a shrimp risotto appetizer had the gluey consistency of mac and cheese.
The entrées were possibly worse: A "bourbon and honey lacquered" duck breast was devoid of sticky sweetness, and an accompanying confit tasted like dry, bad barbecue. A fish-sticklike, phyllo-crusted cod was yet another rich fish with acrid flavor. The only thing I liked: an almond chocolate cake that still paled next to Leach's confections.
Both of these places are expensive—this is the Silk Stocking District, after all—but I got something exceptional for my money at Park Avenue Summer. The only solace I took from Solace was that next time I'm in the neighborhood, I don't have to go there.

After that we headed back to barefoot landing to see the tigers from T.I.G.E.R.S preservations. people were taking pictures holding the tiger but that was 100$. We just decided to look at the cub tigers through the glass. That was a nice experience. They were very playful. ...

The actual RV park in Forthill, a KOA, was not great and I would not recommend it, as it was rather run down compared to all the other KOA�s we had stayed at. Luckily though the park was fairly empty and that meant I could get a site close to the laundry room.

Diane Forster, head of recoveries services compliance at Shoosmiths, has warned businesses to be aware of the impact of new regulatory developments that have recently come into force.
Forster was speaking at a client compliance forum — hosted by the national law firm — on various developments, including the transfer of consumer credit regulation from the Office of Fair Trading (OFT) to the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) on 1 April 2014.
The forum operated under Chatham House rules so attendees could fully participate in the debates.
The forum's morning session focused on the issue of transfer for consumer credit regulation. Other areas of debate looked at the FCA high-level standards, including Threshold Conditions; setting out a firm's requirements to third-party suppliers; outsourcing; and financial crime.
Forster said: 'It's therefore essential that firms are communicating these changes, internally and externally, to third-party suppliers to ensure everyone is fully prepared, as well as dealing with any ongoing non-compliance or issues within their businesses and regularly reviewing any resource requirements.'
Other advice provided at the forum included reviewing and documenting policies and procedures relevant to your business and ensuring they are all up to date and being adhered to; and getting to grips with the current FCA authorisation process and the information required, as well as being aware of what you will need to demonstrate in applying for authorisation by the FCA in due course.
Forster — an experienced compliance professional with detailed knowledge of FCA Business Standards — also highlighted to the meeting that the FCA has advised that after it starts regulating consumer credit, its supervision teams will look at firms' fees and charges practices to decide if they need to intervene.
Attendees, which included senior representatives from many of the firm's retail lender clients, were also given a presentation on how to comply with the Data Protection Act by recoveries services specialist Jenny Ogden and data protection specialist Aisling Duffy.

Mexico's expansion may be catching the eye of countries as diverse as Russia and New Zealand. One area of growth is in the auto industry, where Mexico has become the fourth largest automotive manufacturer in the world. This expansion is due in part to the tremendous expansion of the North American gas and oil industry, along with Mexico's decision to open its doors to foreign energy investors.
Mexico grows interested in forming connections with Russia
Mexican exports may reach as far as Russia, according to ITAR TASS. Recently, the Mexican ambassador to Russia, Ruben Beltran, spoke to Mexico's position as a leading exporter not only of meats and produce, but also of technology and manufactured goods.
"Mexico's economic potential is in exports. Mexico is one of the world's largest exporters of pork and beef," said Beltran. "We should not forget that manufactured goods form the basis of Mexican exports. Mexico is no longer a country where most exports are oil and farm produce. Today, manufactured goods account for 80 percent of exports."
Mexico plans to take advantage of Russia's decision to ban imports of U.S. and European goods if Russia proves to be a willing partner. This is part of Mexico's goal of expanding around the world.
Mexican automotive industry a major part of its national growth strategy
One manufacturing segment where Mexico could begin exporting goods to Russia is the automotive sector. The automotive industry in Mexico is growing at a fast clip. According to Forbes, it's the fourth largest manufacturer of cars in the word. U.S. companies like Chrysler have moved there to take advantage of the inexpensive but efficient and well-trained labor, along with the many trade agreements existing around the world. These agreements enable companies to ship parts or even entire cars across the three North American countries without paying tariffs because of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). Foreign companies like Audi, Nissan and BMW are also moving to Mexico, which is becoming a global hub not only for building cars but for building the parts that go into cars as well.
"Investors see Mexico as an export platform with access to the United States," Eric Farnsworth, vice president of the Council of the Americas, told Forbes.
This industry benefits the U.S. because companies have begun performing what has been called an integrated production, according to the article. Because of NAFTA, companies can build some parts in the U.S. and some parts in Mexico, and then finish assembling the car wherever it will be sold. This is finally an option because not only is it completely tariff-free to ship goods across North American borders, but because Mexico is well established as a place for building cars and parts. It has a long history of manufacturing stretching back to when the first U.S. companies moved their production there. Mexican officials welcome foreign business, and have created schools and training programs to help Mexican automotive experts become better at working on a wide range of vehicles, both foreign and domestic.
"Because of integrated supply chains, up to 40 percent of the content of the products Mexico exports comes from the U.S." said Farnsworth to Forbes.
The benefits of opening up the oil industry
Much of Mexico's recent growth has to do with the country's decision to open its energy sector to foreign companies, which will begin moving there soon. Foreign Affairs calls this energy reform revolutionary.
Not least of the revolution was Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto's ability to get many of the country's lawmakers to agree despite being of different political parties. This talent may allow Mexico to continue its expansionary policies that are allowing the country to grow its manufacturing and export industries.

text: A Dirichlet Problem for Distributions and Specifications for Random Fields (Memoirs of the American Mathematical Society) by Michael Rockner English | 15 Dec. 1985 | ISBN: 0821823256 | 76 Pages | PDF | 5 MB We explicitly construct consistent conditional distributions for a large class of Gaussian measures defined on the space of (tempered) distributions on a domain D in IR . The conditional distributions are with respect to an (uncountable) family of o-fields associated with the complements of the (relatively compact) open subsets of D. The construction involves solving a Dirichlet problem whose "boundary data" is given by a distribution. Furthermore, the associated set of Gibbs states is studied. We characterize the extreme Gibbs states, prove that they have the global Markov property and, using the Dirichlet solution for distributions, we can represent any Gibbs state in terms of extreme Gibbs states.

Pop phenomena just don't come any more ... well, discreet than the Lighthouse Family. The first a lot of people would have heard of Paul Tucker and Tunde Baiyewu was slumped in front of a television commercial. Instead of the usual pap with which car advertisers try to pep up the image of their bland jelly-mould products, "Lifted" was a tune so politely catchy that it practically wiped its feet on its way into your head.
Despite having a title not unlike something you might get free with twenty quid's worth of petrol, the Lighthouse Family's 1995 debut album, Ocean Drive, went on to demonstrate that sure hands were at the helm of its deft brand of crisp, dance-inflected soul. Indeed, over the past two years the Family have insinuated themselves into the CD collections of twentysomethings the country over, notching up 1.5 million UK sales in the process.
Buoyed up by these impressive figures and several nominations at this year's Brits, the former Newcastle University students look to have refined their precise sonic formula further with the release of their second album, Postcards from Heaven. Again, the saccharine moniker is misleading - scratch the pristine surface of their production and you will find a disposition that shows the Lighthouse Family burn a little darker than you think.

Stillness is a skill in Radiant Dawn that, when assigned, makes enemies attack units other than the one it is assigned to. Some enemies are unaffected by this skill. It can only be used by Beorc and takes up 25 skill capacity. It is akin to Shade, only more effective at hiding the unit in question.
Volke comes equipped with this skill, though you usually want enemies to attack Volke due to his high offensive and defensive skills.

This study presents a rapid and reliable technique for the inspection of defects in a two-dimensional periodic image using a multi-band-pass filter. More importantly, the blurring effect of the resultant defect images is significantly reduced, thereby resulting in a more precise estimation of the size of defects when compared with methods that use low-pass filtering. As a filter-based approach, the present technique does not require an alignment procedure. In addition, computational time is reduced by implementing multi-band-pass filters with convolution masks when the filters are operated in the spatial domain. Further, this approach involves mostly addition operations with very few multiplications; hence, computational time is significantly reduced when compared with those for existing approaches. The efficiency and effectiveness of the proposed multi-band-pass filter is verified through examples. It is observed that there is a significant reduction in blurring effects, leakage effects, and computational effort. It is noteworthy that though the proposed approach is presented as a two-dimensional filtering problem, it can be reduced to a one-dimensional filtering problem under the assumption that the misorientation angle of the inspected periodic pattern is negligibly small.

The New York Cosmos enter Sunday's encounter with FC Edmonton in arguably the best form of any team in North America.
Winners of their last five and unbeaten in eight games, the Cosmos are 90 minutes away from clinching a place in the Soccer Bowl next month, assuming they can defeat the Eddies at James Shuart Stadium. According to veteran defender Hunter Freeman, scoring early goals has given the team a boost that they were missing earlier in the season.
"When your team puts three or four goals in front of you it makes things a lot easier and it relieves some pressure," Freeman told SBI after training on Wednesday. "I think it's one of the things (we've done) in the past two to three games is scoring goals in the first half.
"(It's) something that at the beginning of the season we weren't doing, we were leaving it so late and the pressure built up. It makes a big difference because now teams can't just pack it in and also the confidence goes through the team and guys play with a little bit more freedom and confidence."
Freeman and co. know that the way their defense has performed recently, an early goal could give them the only advantage they need to pull off a victory.
Here are some more notes from this week's training:
For the past two weeks, the Cosmos have included a handful of trialists and guest players during their daily training sessions, including a large, hulking centerback who has impressed in scrimmages.
On Thursday, the identity of the player was finally revealed to be former Seattle Sounders defender Ashani Fairclough. The 21-year-old Jamaican was waived by the Sounders this past July without playing a first-team match and has been without a club since. However, according to a report from Empire of Soccer, the 6-foot-2-inch Fairclough could be a player the Cosmos sign for next season.
"Fairclough is a player that has played in MLS," Cosmos head coach Giovanni Savarese told Empire of Soccer. "We are looking at players all the time. He is a potential player that is training for us and we are looking already for next year.
"While we are participating (in the league) now, we are still exploring options for next year. He is a potential player for the future."
Fairclough, a Jamaican youth international at the U-17 and U-20 levels, played four seasons at University of South Florida, where he suited up next to compatriot Deshorn Brown, who currently stars in MLS for the Colorado Rapids. The Portmore, Jamaica native wasn't chosen in either the MLS SuperDraft or Supplemental Draft.
As the Cosmos squad continues to grow and gel, some of the trends beginning to form is how good the defense is.
Even after losing Hunter Gorskie to a season ending injury, the Cosmos have earned clean sheets in four of their past five games, including two shutouts on the road. In their last game, a 4-0 victory against the Carolina RailHawks, the Cosmos completely shut down the dangerous front-three of Brian Shriver, Zach Schilawski, and Brian Ackley.
"I think this past weekend vs. Carolina was from top to bottom, everyone in the team, forwards, midfielders, defenders, goalkeeper, I think it was our best overall performance for 90 minutes," Freeman said. "They really didn't have any chances. We were happy with that of course, as a defender when you keep a team to zero goals its always a good feeling."
With the team still growing and getting to know each other better on and off the field, the chemistry and success of the defensive side of the Cosmos game should only continue to grow.
- The Cosmos announced on Thursday that they have signed 10-year-old Zachary Bernstein to a one-day contract for Sunday. Bernstein was diagnosed earlier this year with cancer.
- Freeman said one of the reasons for the team's consistency has just been that they have settled into a routine
- Last week saw head coach Giovanni Savarese select the same starting eleven in consecutive weeks for the first time all season. That streak is in doubt though with the re-emergence of Alessandro Noselli, who could start in place of Stefan Dimitrov.
- Practice on Wednesday was very high tempo, with plenty of short-burst sprint drills mixed in with one-touch and two-touch possession drills in confined spaces.
What do you think of these notes? Do you agree with the Freeman's comments about the Cosmos scoring? Do you see the Cosmos signing Fairclough? Do you feel that the Cosmos defense can be even better?

"Arguably the best form of any team in North America."
put RSL in the NASL and see what kind of form they have.
No one cares about the Cosmo's
Michael V
If you don't care about the Cosmos then why post about the Cosmos?? Seems kind of strange. Fans that do care and follow the Cosmos exist. You may not want to believe it and that's perfectly okay. And before you say it I'm not a Cosmos fan per se but I do have a passing interest. The Cosmos hate is pretty tiresome and quite frankly unwarranted.
I care.
Then why do you post?
The great thing about rooting for the Cosmos is that everyone in MLS AND NASL hates you.
I think this is always touching when sports teams open themselves up to caring for others and engaging the community. The Cosmos signed a 10yr old kid with a brain tumor to a one day contract.
anxiously awaiting the daily Rowdies, and FC Edmonton notes too… Oh wait…
Clyde Frog
If a sufficient number of others were also waiting for such coverage then you'd get your alleged wish, I'm sure.
yes, but clearly NO ONE is waiting for the cosmos stuff.. Read every article's comments… We have all spotted this marketing ploy miles away, how have you missed it?
don't want to keep you waiting too long.
Cesar T
Amazing how people take the time to read a Cosmos article and then comment at the end of the article how no one cares about the article!! lol
How bad does that make someone look. Listen there are Cosmos fans worldwide..more so than any other MLS team that has ever existed. I am one and while I
wish they would step into the MLS, I can't do anything about it. For now we will support our team wherever they play and against whomever they play.
I can't wait for the Lamar Hunt US Open cup to shut some people up!!
G in Humboldt
Notice no comparable coverage for other league teams. The way I suspect this works is all these websites get something for every article they write for the paying team/interested party. It seems someone is trying to "buy" different organizations' (Cosmos, NYRB, maybe in the past even the Galaxy) way into our soccer attention and fabricate something out of nothing. Same kind of people who think the USMNT should throw a game to screw Mexico. To each their own.
And before you tell me not to read something if I don't agree with you, I'll read what I want for my own reasons, thank you very much.
Clyde Frog
The reasons the Cosmos get so much more coverage than other teams in the NASL or USL are so extraordinarily obvious as to be common sense.
Yet you don't see them. You see a conspiracy.
I bet it's a joy to talk politics with you too.
the donald
It's not simply the quantity of coverage that is over the top.
For heaven's sake, look at the first line of this piece.
"The New York Cosmos enter Sunday's encounter with FC Edmonton in arguably the best form of any team in North America."
The Cosmos are doing well. But they play against inferior opposition in a lower league.
If that isn't an issue, maybe Ohio Wesleyan are in the "best form of any team in North America." Sure it's only Division III college soccer, but last I saw they had won all 14 games they've played.
I'm into the Cosmos actually.
But these articles are preposterous.
I enjoy these articles because they get everyone riled up and that's more fun that the standard "Toronto is still a mess" or "DC's Olsen Still Perplexed Why Team Still Stinks" or "Chivas to Become Even More Latino" or "Seattle Fans Love Themselves"
Those Topics have been beaten into the ground. This is the new topic to beat to death.
We can always back to discussing John O'Brien if you like.
Clearly, the Bilderbergs and the New World Order are behind all the Cosmos coverage.
We would wipe the grounds of RBA with these fools
Did anyone notice that it said Fairclough had never played for the Sounders first team but then the Cosmos coach says "Fairclough is a player who has played in MLS" ? Practice and playing maybe a few reserve league games to me does not count as playing in the MLS but whatever
I read every article on here about the Cosmos, in fact it's my main reason for visiting the website.
Just wanted to make that clear.
Really, there are many who will try to put this club next to Real Madrid and Manchester United when it's currently unwarranted, but the majority of us just want to support the club that has an identity and history in our region. Just support your clubs and let it be, the only banter I want to hear is from RBNY fans, cause why not, let's get this rivalry started.
Patrick . agree with you. I don't know why all this hostility from all the redbull fans against the Cosmos. Perhaps it's because in their 16 year existence they have never won anything? and in their first year back the Cosmos are within a victory of the Soccerbowl? That's what you get with the Cosmos. Tradition, Credibility, a world re knwon brand and, oh yeah, good quality soccer. Don't be upset at the Cosmos, The MLS had a fantastic opportunity to create a tremendous buzz around not only in N.Y. but also around the world by choosing the Cosmos as an expansion franchise, Intead they sold out to the Yankees and manchester city owners.
The thing here that most of you (Cosmos haters) don't get is that unlike the rest of you, those of us old enough to remember the team have a connection to the team that 20 something MLS fans don't have. We root for the Cosmos because there is a connection with them, not because Don Garber tells us to. I notice many here take the position of Cosmos vs MLS which I find interesting. I would pose the question who are the "real" fans?
New York is Green and White!
Whatever. You're probly the same person who sat off along the sidelines when MLS was struggling for a foothold and watched Euro leagues in the pub at 8am on Saturday instead of going to support the Metros.
Now I'll ask you: who really supports the game in the NYC area? Chumps who sat around and waited for Cosmos 2.0, or those that supported the true New York area club since day 1?
Now go get your club some grass so we can send Thierry out there to smack fire out of your little club – cause he's not gonna be playing on that abomination that you call a field out at Hofstra bro.
Listen up RBNY, ou seem to have a short memory. not long ago the bulls were also playing in a "abomination" field called Met life stadium.
