Highlights Constraints Hurricane Season (Source: National Hurricane Center) Atlantic: • Hurricane Sally (CAT 2): Sally made landfall at Mobile, Alabama on 16 September early morning as a category 2 hurricane. As a slow-moving storm, Sally brought life-threatening storm surge and flash flooding to Alabama, Mississippi and Florida. Hundreds of people were rescued from flooding areas and more than half million population were left without electricity.

Very large swells produced by Teddy are expected to affect portions of Bermuda, the Leeward Islands, the Greater Antilles, the Bahamas, the east coast of the United States, and the Atlantic Canada during the next few days. These swells are expected to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. • Tropical Storm Vicky: Last advisory on Vicky was issued on 17 September.

By Mike Prero Most of You Will Not Be Surprised to Learn That, Since World War II, the United States Has Maintained More Foreign
by Mike Prero Most of you will not be surprised to learn that, since World War II, the United States has maintained more foreign sites for its military forces than any other country in the world (you pay for them, after all!). But (and here‟s where your tax dollars really start paying dividends), lucky for us, many have produced their own special matchcovers. There have been hundreds of U.S. foreign military locations since World War II, from tiny Pacific islands that only geographers and military strategists have ever heard of to more recent sites, such as in Saudi Arabia...Naval bases, such as Roosevelt Roads, Puerto Rico, and Atsugi Naval Air Station, Japan; Air bases, such as Anderson Air Force Base, Guam, and Goose Air Base, Labrador; Army posts, such as U.S. Army Post Orleans, France, and Camp Alpha, Saigon, Vietnam. There are even overseas military recreational areas, such as Garmisch in Bavaria (Southern Germany). Many have since been closed, of course, as first one party‟s administration shrinks the Military and then the other party‟s administration builds the Military back up again. Thus, aside from the waning state of matchcovers in general, the output of matchcovers from such sites has fallen off drastically since “the good ol‟ days.” As is usually the case, however, there is still a goodly amount of these covers to be had. continued on p.3 Normally, one doesn‟t see them advertised as „foreign U.S. military bases‟ in auctions, simply because sellers don‟t bother to break them down into that category.

UNESCO World Heritage Site Threatened by Coastal Highway Project
UNESCO World Heritage Site Threatened by Coastal Highway Project The government of Panama and is moving ahead quickly with a controversial coastal highway project that would cause its 338 year old historic district to lose its UNESCO World Heritage Site designation, destroy sensitive environmental areas. A group of fifteen Panamanian and international organizations have joined together in fighting the project, lead by Fundacion Calicanto. Fundacion Calicanto is a non-profit foundation dedicated to the protection of the historical and human heritage of Casco Antiguo. The foundation, together with fifteen civic groups that make up the Panama Pro Patrimonio Historico (Panama for Historical Heritage or PPPH) alliance, are mounting a defense of the historic district of Casco Antiguo against an imminent threat to the district by a highly-over budgeted and under studied seaside highway that UNESCO has declared a threat to the district and its World Heritage Site status. Background The specific threat is a highway project (known locally as “Cinta Costera Phase 3”) being promoted by the Government of Panama that would break numerous Panamanian laws, cause one of the oldest cities in the Americas to be removed from UNESCO’s World Heritage list, destroy the only remaining beaches in Panama City and cause irreparable damage to an important sector of Panama’s tourism industry. The +$770 million project, which was originally presented to the public and awarded to the contractor (Odebrecht) as a tunnel that would not affect the World Heritage Site was abruptly and illegally changed to a seaside landfill or bridge by Panamanian President Ricardo Martinelli despite repeated warnings by UNESCO regarding the dangers of a seaside highway when other options are available.

Panama City, Republic of Panama Ciudad De Panama' Is the Largest City and Capital on the Isthmus of Panama
Panama City, Republic of Panama Ciudad de Panama' is the largest city and capital on the Isthmus of Panama. The Republic of Panama has a population of about 4 million people. It borders the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, as well as Central and South America. The origins of Panama date back to 11,000 BC. Pottery and trading between Mexico and Peru were known in 2,500 BC. "There are seven unique indigenous cultures of Panama, which make up about 13% of the country’s population (currently around 4 million). These cultures are typically divided into four major groups based on language, traditions, and locations. These are the Ngöbe‐Buglé, the Kuna, the Emberá‐Wounaan, and the Naso‐Bribri." <zegrahm.com> The Spaniard conquistadors founded the first city in Panama in 1519. Old Panama (Panama la Vieja) became their chief post of the Pacific. "Panama City was founded by Spanish governor Pedro Arias de Ávila not long after conquistador Vasco Núñez de Balboa first saw the Pacific." <lonelyplant.com> It became a pass‐through for treasures found in Peru's mines and the pearl fisheries in the Bay of Panama. A series of fires devastated the city, but it was Captain Henry Morgan, a Welsh privateer sponsored by England, who sacked Panama in 1671. <thoughtco.com> "The privateers stayed for about four weeks, digging through the ashes, looking for fugitive Spanish soldiers in the hills and looting the small islands in the bay where many had sent their treasures. When it was tallied, it was not as big a haul as many had hoped for, but there was still quite a bit of plunder and every man received his share.

Juan Carlos Varela, President of Republic of Panama, to specifically (and publicly) designate a purchasing pathway for self-employed Republic of Cuba nationals convince H.E. Miguel Diaz-Canel, President of the Republic of Cuba, to establish a legitimate and sustainable wholesale marketplace for the self-employed? Was the decision by the Varela Administration, likely designed with the cooperation of the Diaz-Canel Administration, a marketing effort to increase the number of self-employed in the Republic of Cuba, but permit the Diaz-Canel Administration not to be perceived as substantially supporting the self-employed? Permit the self-employed to travel far and spend much for the products they desire, but not provide the necessary purchasing infrastructure within the Republic of Cuba. The Government of the Republic of Cuba reports approximately 593,000 Republic of Cuba nationals as having licenses permitting self-employment, representing approximately 13% of the workforce.
