It's difficult to explain this in the USA, but Mexico has moved forwards intensively in the last 12 years or so. Do they understand this in the USA? They probably don't. At least, most of them simply do not have the slightest interest in the subject. But it is a subject of superlative importance for the North American continent. Some companies in the USA are still unaware of Mexico being part of a commercial treaty that should make it really easy to expand their markets. Most web sites ignore this and can't sell or do not want to sell anything to Mexicans.

It's extremely difficult for me to believe that when I think of myself as being "just a physical body" I'm missing something. I am "just" a physical body, but ... what a fantastic entity this physical body is! If we think only for 10 seconds about the incredible number of events that needed to take place in the "right direction" for this "inferior" physical body to exist, then we are no longer going to to say, ever, that "just being a physical body" is not something extremely special in the Universe.

Hello Everyone!

Things have been interesting since our arrival in CA.  It is not what I thought it would be; or perhaps I should rephrase and say that I had a hunch that southern CA - at least - would not be my favourite place.  It seems to be the materialistic capital on earth!  I've never seen so many plastic people in such abundance!  The place we are renting is okay, it's very posh and-all, but the neighbours are a miserable lott.  We've had notes placed on our door asking us to strangle our dogs due to the odd bark... okay, not exactly, but one can't help thinking they probably wouldn't mind a public canine execution.  Odious miserable lott.  It's funny to think we've lived in southern England, northern England, a Michigan apartment, and our Michigan condo, and we've NEVER had one complaint from anyone about our dogs... until arriving at the point on earth where the humans that inhabit this area feel that they are the dead-centre of the universe; where any inconvenience - no matter how idiotic - simply will not be tolerated; perhaps inconveniences are bad for plastic boobs?  Maybe it makes them droop.

La política de saqueo impuesta por Estados Unidos y sus aliados de la OTAN en el Oriente Medio entró en crisis. Esta se desató inevitablemente con el alto costo de los cereales, cuyos efectos se hacen sentir con más fuerza en los países árabes donde a pesar de sus enormes recursos petroleros, la escasez de agua, las áreas desérticas y la pobreza generalizada del pueblo contrastan con los enormes recursos derivados del petróleo que poseen los sectores privilegiados.

Mientras los precios de los alimentos se triplican, las fortunas inmobiliarias y los tesoros de la minoría aristocrática se elevan a millones de millones de dólares.

El mundo arábigo, de cultura y creencia mayoritariamente musulmana, se ha visto humillado adicionalmente por la imposición a sangre y fuego de un Estado que no fue capaz de cumplir las obligaciones elementales que le dieron origen, a partir del orden colonial existente hasta fines de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, en virtud del cual las potencias victoriosas crearon la ONU e impusieron el comercio y la economía mundiales.
