Blogs about: Mexico

Though the recent drug violence has taken a hit on Mexico’s public image, the country should not be judged on that alone — after all, it has a rich culture with a fascinating history and incredibly beautiful landscape (and the beaches aren’t bad, either). Oh, and the food. Need we mention the food? The tacos, enchiladas, burritos, margaritas, tequila…we could go on and on….

STOOPID HOUSEWIVES

Bravo… Hi guys! Sorry I didn’t get to blog last week, I’ve been so busy with work, and I’m super excited because we recently acquired new Gretchen Christine offices with fulfillment and much needed warehouse space. So we have been crazy with moving and getting everything up and running! So exciting, but lots of work and its keeping me crazed! I feel like I have so much to cover on these last two episodes, so forgive me in advance for my very long blog! I am a writer and if you don’t like to read long blogs then please just don’t read mine. My blogs are for all the people that like to hear my behind-the-scenes thoughts and emotions. It’s for those people who can appreciate me sharing my emotions and my vulnerability. You know how the old saying “there’s much more to the story”? Well, please consider my blog a place for you to get the “much more.” For me it’s also a therapeutic way to deal with the crazy that often h

Thuggery and loons
The Unseen Moon

June is almost here, and that means graduation. The Los Angeles Times reports that only four conservatives were included in those  commencement speakers invited by 150 colleges and universities. Cory Booker, the collectivist mayor of Newark, New Jersey, received more invitations than all elected Republicans combined. A major reason for this shocking disparity of opinion is that conservatives are routinely shouted down and otherwise disrupted. Diversity only applies to skin tone, never opinions. There was no mention of how many Mohammedans received speaking invitations from the Multicultural Marxists who control U.S. education. Meanwhile, the Internal Revenue Service hunts down the regime’s political opponents, those who do not “think correctly.” Welcome to Obama’s America. * * * * Mexican efficiency There are many advantages to living south of the Rio Bravo. Costs and taxes are lower. People are more polite. It’s safer and freer. The list is very long. My

Pemex monopoly ‘to end this year’
Offshore Bulletin

Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto expressed confidence Tuesday that Congress will end the state oil monopoly this year, opening the way for companies such as ExxonMobil and Shell to tap the nation’s reserves. An opening would probably be broad, from offshore drilling to shale fields similar to those that have revived the US petroleum industry. via Upstreamonline

Cactus with hug factor and Sweet Blogger Award
Elementary Posters

If I mention the word ‘cactus’ people have the association with prickly plants with nasty spines. Personally I rather work with cacti than with roses (pruned many roses bare handed) I can taken them in my hands and I rarely get pricked but than I know these magnificent plants or is it when you really love plants, plants will love you? Anyway; there are also spineless cacti. One of these is the Lophocereus scotti monstrose; it’s one with a huge hug factor and it grows naturally in Mexico, New Mexico and in Texas. Never realized that my sweetness reached the level of being nominated for the Sweet Blogger Award but Heather nominated me. Thank you Heather and also thank you for sharing your pictures with the world. Important note: I’m not in favor of all kinds of blogger awards for whatever (silly?) reasons but I’ve been nominated so many times now and didn’t do anything with it. So for the first and LAST time I’ll play this ‘game’ with

Dozens were hurt as riot police unleashed tear gas and barrage of rubber bullets at a crowd of some 30,000 Brazilian protesters. Images and video of the demonstration just outside of the  north-eastern city depicted throngs of protesters marching down a  road towards the stadium hosting Wednesday’s match. One person  was reported to have suffered an eye injury and another was taken  away on a stretcher. The protesters were marching against government spending on the  World Cup and the Olympics. During the Fortaleza protest,  demonstrators carried banners reading “a teacher is worth

Is Illegal Immigration Good For Mexico?
The Constitution Club

- By Nonie Darwish -   The debate over immigration reform, illegal aliens and border security presupposes that absorbing a constant flow of illegal immigrants, mainly from Mexico, is a good thing for Mexico and its people. But this presumption has neglected an important question: is the constant influx of poor and unskilled labor out of Mexico good for Mexico as an independent nation? Even if we ignore the fact that the US cannot absorb and assimilate all the people who want to come to America, we cannot ignore the question of whether we are doing Mexico a favor with our open borders. No doubt, life as an illegal alien in the US is much better than being unemployed and poor in Mexico or any other third world country. At face value illegal immigration seems to be good for Mexico, which benefits tremendously from the pouring of US dollars into its economy, supporting families and relatives of immigrants in America. That is why the Mexican government is not complaining and is happy t

Ensenada, Enchilada, Empanada…
Mandy and the World

Three great Mexican things that begin with ‘E’ and end in ‘ada’. Two of them are of course delicious foods, and the third, a town in the peninsular state of Baja California on the north-western coast of Mexico, not far from the US border at San Diego. This is where my cousin Kirsty has lived and worked for the past 5 or so years with her husband Oscar and now her 2-year-old son Samuel. They work for an organisation called Youth with a Mission, which has bases all over the world. They do some amazing stuff here; Oscar mostly works with a program called ‘Homes of Hope’, building houses for many of the poor families in the area who cannot not afford proper shelter. Kirsty works with a children’s ministry called Circulo Andante (Walking Circle), where children in one of the communities where Homes of Hope are built meet weekly to participate in fun activities based around maths, reading and bible stories. The program hopes to teach children the value and importance of education and help mo

Father Raymond J. de Souza: In the U.S. immigration debate, a tale of two roadsigns
National Post | Full Comment

Frustrated Canadian transit users take note: At the San Ysidro border crossing — the busiest land border crossing in the world — a Mexican national can cross over on foot, get on board light-rail transit, and be in downtown San Diego, some 18 miles north, in less time that it would take to drive into downtown Toronto from one of the city’s closest suburbs. Many of the people who use the San Ysidro crossing are workers who cross daily from Tijuana to jobs in San Diego. If the formal border did not exist, the distinction between baja California and alta California would be hard to spot. It feels like Mexico on both sides of the border. And that puts California at the centre of America’s immigration debate. In 1970, “non-Hispanic whites” (as it is called) represented roughly 80% of California’s total population, and the Hispanic population was 10%. In 2010, 40 years later, the non-Hispanic white population had halved by proportion to roughly 40%, and the Hispanic proportion quadrupled to

Why they hell to the united states travel department put Mexico and Lebanon on the danger list?
xpaintme1325w

http://myglobaladventure.com/?post_type=post&p=26016 Question by SONICS ARE COMING HOME: Why they hell to the united states travel department put Mexico and Lebanon on the danger list? I know Mexico has crime but Cancun is much safer than Rio De Janerio. And Lebanon is a good country and they are claiming terrorism groups but it is safer than Brazil and hell even ******* greece. So why are they scaring us from Mexico and Lebanon because I think this is retarded. I feel safer in Mexico than Detroit in St. Louis. Went to those cities this year. I feel safe outside the “tourist zones” in Cancun and the Yucatan. My Dad works and Mexico and he says you have to look for trouble to get involved in it. And why Lebanon? US supporting Israel much? Best answer: Answer by justagrandmaYour dad is wrong on this one, the drug cartels have taken over and kidnappings and murders are rampant even in the tourists cities, you can’t even trust the police or military there and literal
