The flagship collection we have here in corpus. He made it his life to help local and beyond mexican americans learn to be more civically active and to get the benefits they had coming to them as veterans which were sometimes very difficult for them to obtain. This represents a case of private longoria which was an incident that occurred early in the g. I. Forum. Private longoria served the United States during world war ii and was killed by a japanese sniper toward the end of the war. His widow arranged to have his funeral conducted by the only funeral home in her hometown of three rivers texas, which is near Corpus Christi. They were willing to conduct the funeral but not willing to allow his body to remain there in the funeral home overnight for fear of offending the white citizens of the area. She appeals to dr. Garcia, and he conducted a Letter Writing Campaign to people with positions of influence. A response came from Lyndon Johnson who had been recently elected senator. He stat

When they added this last panel im thinking another facility, work behind us, my team is going to kill me what are we doing.

Voted to fasttrack and the vote failed and he did not get the vote. In 2001 under president bush 21 democrats voted for fast track. That didnt prevail with the republican votes. There was a tie it was 215 to 214. The republicans were equally divided. We said you can consider these bills in the congress on a fasttrack if you abide by the maids have an agreement which we work with the administration on that honored the ilo principles and list of standards that had to be met as well as issues that relate to endangered species montreal protocol and other Environmental Issues that were contained in that. I want just to say that weve always had the lively debate on the subject regardless of who was president of the United States. Its not a question of well democrats stuck with president clinton but didnt stick with president obama. That is just not the case. We need to ask what this does to the paycheck of American Workers. This is the debate were having. What is being put forth is that bett
They are not the same people dedicated to producing the light, sweet crude thats produced in the oil sector, for the most part. So if you offer discounts to asian consumers at large so that they become beholden to your type of oil and they build refineries specifically dedicated troo processing your type of oil its going to be harder for them to switch to somebody elses oil down the line. So it makes sense to keep the price a bit lower right now so that asian consumers build up refinery capacity for medium and heavy sour sulphur rich, saudi type oil, and you try and guarantee your market down the road when you will be putting on the brakes and sending prices back up. Okay, this is kind of thinking about the supply and demand side of the market, but there are other factors that we need to think about that i think people dont often like to consider. And that is that the saudis, the qataris and their friends in the gulf on the sunni side of the aisle have created a monster. By funding rad

Some would ask why has it taken so long for these charges to be filed. Its a good question. These weapons were brought to us from the Sheriffs Department in july of 2013 about three months ago. As soon as we got the weapons we analyzed them and conducted a secondary investigation and filed the charges. Weve been aware of the incident that youre referring to. Were all accountable for our action, good and bad. Other processes that will take place. Do you expect alden smith to play this year . I dont feel any need to comment further. If found guilty, punishment ranges from no jail time to more than four years behind bars. The District Attorney also filed charges related to smiths arrest last month. Smith is charged with driving under the influence of alcohol and a second charge of having a high blood alcoho
