They have invested three
thousand 398 million
pesos to address the
problems of drought.
MEXICO CITY
(24/OCT/2012.) - The
director of the Conagua,
José Luis Luege, said
three thousand were
invested 398 million
pesos to address the
problems of drought in
Mexico, which has left the
country severe drought
back and food security is
guaranteed. "We are
already out of a drought
risk and we can say that
over a drought situation
(severe) in the country,
thanks to the
normalization of the
rains," he said. However,
this does not mean that
the matter is fully
resolved, because it is a
problem that is solved in
the long term when the
restoration is achieved
hydrologic soil. Besides
that in America there are
exceptional drought in its
central region, which is a
vulnerable area for being
the largest grain
production in the world.
The head of the National
Water Commission
(Conagua) noted that
currently the average
level of the dams in the
country is 58.8 percent,
and although it is good,
in a normal year should
be at 64.8 percent as of
October. Although
normalized rainfall could
not recover the optimal
filling of dams, such as
Aguascalientes, Baja
California, Chihuahua
and Coahuila, among
others, which are below
50 percent and must be
careful to ensure the
cycle Fall-Winter. About
the Cutzamala System,
said that in 71 percent of
the filling, "which means
you are guaranteed
Cutzamala supply for the
rest of the year and also
the year 2013, thanks to a
very good operation,
especially in recent
months. " He said that the
transition team has
recommended the
technological progress
and efficiency of water to
irrigate crops, with a new
pattern of products are
grown. He said that
Mexico "has had a
number of flaws" in the
water use of the vital
liquid waste, which is
required for better
planning and more
technology.
The country has increased
its dependence on imported
grains. For this year it plans
to buy from abroad about
12 million tones, mainly
yellow corn and sorghum.
The cause: the Mexican
countryside is still
recovering from the
droughts of recent years,
especially 2009 and 2011,
when the temporary periods
of rain has fallen on duty.

President Obama begins
a two-day campaign blitz
through eight states with
stops in key battleground
states Iowa, Colorado,
Nevada, Ohio and
Virginia.
The Obama campaign
apparently didn't look
backwards into history
when selecting its new
campaign slogan,
"Forward" — a word
with a long and rich
association with
European Marxism.
Many Communist and
radical publications and
entities throughout the
19th and 20th centuries
had the name
"Forward!" or its foreign
cognates. Wikipedia has
an entire section called
"Forward (generic name
of socialist
publications)." The
name Forward carries a
special meaning in
socialist political
terminology. It has been
frequently used as a
name for socialist,
communist and other left-
wing newspapers and
publications," the online
encyclopedia explains.
The slogan "Forward!"
reflected the conviction
of European Marxists and
radicals that their
movements reflected the
march of history, which
would move forward past
capitalism and into
socialism and
communism. The Obama
campaign released its
new campaign slogan
Monday in a 7-minute
video. The title card has
simply the word
"Forward" with the "O"
having the familiar
Obama logo from 2008. It
will be played at rallies
this weekend that mark
the Obama re-election
campaign's official
beginning. There have
been at least two radical-
left publications named
"Vorwaerts" (the German
word for "Forward"). One
was the daily newspaper
of the Social Democratic
Party of Germany whose
writers included Friedrich
Engels and Leon Trotsky.
It still publishes as the
organ of Germany's SDP,
though that party has
changed considerably
since World War II.
Another was the 1844
biweekly reader of the
Communist League. Karl
Marx, Engels and Mikhail
Bakunin are among the
names associated with
that publication.
East Germany named its
Army soccer club ASK
Vorwaerts Berlin (later FC
Vorwaerts Frankfort).
Vladimir Lenin founded
the publication "Vpered"
(the Russian word for
"forward") in 1905. Soviet
propaganda film-maker
Dziga Vertov made a
documentary whose title
is sometimes translated
as "Forward, Soviet"
(though also and more
literally as "Stride,
Soviet").

San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Barry Zito throws during the first inning of Game 5 of baseball's National League
championship series against the St. Louis Cardinals, Friday, Oct. 19, 2012,
SAN FRANCISCO — From
postseason bystander to
starting the World Series
opener. That’s how far Barry
Zito has come in two years to
resurrect his career. The
resurgent left-hander will
pitch Game 1 for the San
Francisco Giants on
Wednesday night against
Justin Verlander and the
Detroit Tigers. Manager Bruce
Bochy said Tuesday he will go
with Zito, who has turned
around his career this year —
and Bochy was eager and
proud to give the pitcher the
news, once they finally
connected that is. “I tried to
call him all day. He left his
phone at the ballpark, so I
couldn’t get ahold of him,”
Bochy said. “But he was
ecstatic. He was proud,
honored that we have the
trust in him to start Game 1.”
Zito’s stellar outing in a 5-0
victory on Friday night in
Game 5 of the NL
championship series at Busch
Stadium helped San Francisco
rally from a 3-1 series deficit
against the defending
champion St. Louis Cardinals
to return to the World Series
for the second time in three
years. Left off the postseason
roster for all three rounds
when the Giants won it all in
2010, Zito made a conscious
decision to find his way by
just plain having fun again —
forgetting one bad start and
moving on to the next.
Whatever he has done to
change his mental approach,
it has certainly paid off on the
mound. “It’s not important to
reflect right now. There’s
work to do,” Zito said. “I’m
going to be on the mound
here in the next 24 hours, so
that’s where my focus is at.”
For Bochy, leaving Zito off the
roster was among the
toughest calls he has made as
a manager. That made
delivering the good news
Tuesday so much sweeter. “I
couldn’t be happier for him. It
says a lot about his mental
toughness, his makeup,”
Bochy said. “I mentioned this
in 2010, it wasn’t easy not to
put him on the postseason
roster. He was struggling in
September. But the way he
handled it was so impressive.
He went out, I think he threw
a bullpen that day, and
throughout the postseason he
kept himself ready in case
something happened. He
didn’t hang his head and he
even threw to hitters.” It
doesn’t hurt that Zito now has
four pitches to baffle batters
aside from just that nasty
curveball that has defined his
career since back in the early
days of the Big Three — with
Tim Hudson and Mark Mulder
— across the bay with the
Oakland Athletics. “He’s been
through a lot, obviously. He
took the beatings,” Giants
general manager Brian
Sabean said of Zito. “He’s
always been a stand-up guy,
he’s never stopped working.
In his own way he’s never
stopped believing and he’s
made changes.

Organized effort to control the malignant effects of smoking, it was not enough. It is therefore
convenient to the strong component of social disease you have. The way to stop it is a process and
today is social maturity. The dynamics of intervention should be fed by its results. Morbidity
indicators, risks and epidemiological trends demonstrate the extent to which society is involved.
There is a body of evidence that links between individual behavior and the influence of the social
environment. There is also a Legal Framework Convention that Mexico has signed and will help
increase social pressure. Smoking is a serious illness that requires individual and social care in the
school age population since. Urgent to raise social awareness and maintain interest in care, the
extent to which they have warned those who have lost so health and wellness. Health professionals
attest disease, misery and death can not give give the authority for such care. In addition, there are
other professions should also be involved. It is necessary to innovate strategies to detail and test
cost-effective actions. We must address the implications of change for preventive purposes: to
adjust the concept is accepted smoking as a disease due to deviant behavior, individually and
collectively address the social disease risks and innovate strategies to promote health and wellness
from the standpoint idiosyncrasy. The joint participation of the community has its advantages.
Under the environment of harmony and good will is more likely to get the goal without them.

Books on tobacco
diseases are few and far
between, and this new
one by an expert from
North Carolina should
have a great welcome
from tobacco growers all
over the world.
A preliminary chapter
gives brief statistics of
tobacco areas and
production throughout
the world. The figures
given for the year 1955
show the U.S.A. to be
easily the biggest
producer with 2, 195, 788
Ib. ; China comes next
with 1, 610, 000 Ib., and
honourable places are
occupied by the
Federation of Rhodesia
and Nyasaland with 151,
725 Ib. and Canada with
134, 840 Ib. This is
followed by 3 chapters on
plant beds, on rotations in
relation to disease and on
breeding for disease
resistance.
Then comes the real meat.
The book is wide in scope
and "disease" is made to
cover also malnutrition,
physiological injury due to
climate, and genetic
abnormalities. The whole is
contained in 44 chapters,
each with illustrations and
a useful list of references.
Those diseases which are
of particular importance to
the North American grower
receive pride of place and
maximum attention. This is
generally bestowed in most
orderly fashion on
aetiology of organism
concerned, host-parasite
relationship,
environmental factors and
control. The nematodes,
especially the endopara-
sites of the Meloidogyne,
Pratylenchus and Ditylen-
chus groups, are dealt with
in detail, as are a very large
number of fungus
parasites, especially those
causing black shank, black
root rot, damping off and
sore shin. Bacterial
diseases occupy 60, and
virus diseases 66 pages.
The parasitic plants
broomrape, witchweed
and dodder and their
control also receive
attention.
