GNP per capita: US$4,400 Political organization, History and Festivities Political Organization: ● Government ● Parties The government is divided into executive, legislative and judicial branches. The executive branch is headed by a President democratically elected every six years without the possibility of reelection. The legislative branch is divided into a Camara de Diputados (with 500 representatives, 300 of them directly elected, while 200 are assigned to each political party according to the number of votes obtained) and the Camara de Senadores (with 128 senators, 4 for each one of the 31 states and 4 for the Federal District). Please visit www.camaradediputados.gob.mx and www.senado.gob.mx for more information. Judicial system has been recently restructured to ensure the autonomy of its members (www.scjn.gob.mx/default.asp). There are multiple political parties covering all the political spectrum. The governing party (Partido Revolucionario Institucional, PRI) has not lost any presidential election since its creation in 1929 (www.pri.org.mx). The Partido Acción Nacional (born in 1939) has been identified with the right wing: it won its first state election until this decade (www.pan.org.mx). Currently, the PAN controls important states such as Jalisco and Nuevo León. The Partido de la Revolución Democrática is a coalition of left wing organizations originated after the presidential election of 1988 (www.cen-prd.org.mx). The "moral" leader of the party was elected mayor of Mexico City in 1997 and the PRD also controls states like Tlaxcala and Zacatecas.

    TEAM-Mexico’s Guided Discovery Orientation Program An Introduction to TEAM-Mexico’s Guided Discovery Program “After three weeks of residing in the republic of Mexico, Mr. Winthrop was not only convinced that he knew the country perfectly, but also that he had seen everything- that he had penetrated the character and the customs of its people and had explored it thoroughly.” Translated from Canasta de Cuentas Mexicanos by B. Traven Cultural Orientation: FAIL! Unlike this clueless tourist, we hope that you will start the journey of understanding and enjoying Mexico and her culture. It will take a lifetime! That’s why we called our program Peregrinando which means, “ taking a journey, a pilgrimage.” This program is part of a two year orientation for new workers . On the next page, you will see a timeline. It includes formal language study, journaling and a coaching program. We hope that you will develop skills of observation and sympathetic questioning that will serve you throughout your career. Please journal your observations and discuss your experience with your coach each week. Both of you can keep a checklist to record your progress. The activities can be done in any order. Some of the activities will be easy to do, others may require a translator for you to complete. If you would like to substitute another activity or reading for one we have chosen, please talk with your coach first. Our thanks to Beth Wyse, Curriculum Designer for Lifelearner Network, who guided us as we attempted “the discovery method.” We used many of Dr. Herbert Purnell’s general topics as an outline for our program (2004, A Language and Culture Learning Program for Independent Learners, preliminary rev.

  • Overloading Effect on the Fatigue Strength in Resistance Spot Welding

Dr. Manuel Nava No. 8, Zona Universitaria, C.P. 78290 San Luis Potosí, S.L.P., Mexico ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: Dual phase steel DP980 sheets were joined by resistance spot welding (RSW) process. Mechanical resistance of DP980 steel the welds was characterized by microhardness, tensile shear and fatigue tests. A significant hardness decreases Resistance spot welding was observed in the RSW lap joints with respect to the base material, which was attributed to phase transfor- Fatigue behavior mations during the heating and cooling of the steel. Fatigue Wöhler curves using a fixed load ratio of 0.1 were Compressive residual stresses obtained. It was found that the spot weld at the nugget interface close to the fusion zone induced a critical stress concentration factor, which decreased the fatigue life of the joints in the as-welded condition. Failure of the welds was initiated at the interface between welded sheets. Two predominant fatigue fracture modes were observed associated with mode I/III cyclic loading, which were correlated with the fatigue crack initiation and propagation stages. Compressive residual stresses were induced by a loading-unloading cycle on the spot welds, which tends to increase the fatigue life of the joints when compared to the as-welded condition.

  • EL BACHILLERATO TECNOLÓGICO INDUSTRIAL MEXICANO Una Bisagra Entre La Formación Académica Y La Formación Técnica* ESTELA RUIZ LARRAGUIVEL
    RMIE, 2020, VOL. 25, NÚM. 84, PP. 61-89 (ISSN: 14056666 • ISSN-e: 25942271) Investigación temática EL BACHILLERATO TECNOLÓGICO INDUSTRIAL MEXICANO Una bisagra entre la formación académica y la formación técnica* ESTELA RUIZ LARRAGUIVEL Resumen: Este artículo examina los resultados obtenidos en un estudio de tipo documental, relacionados con las tensiones y dilemas entre la formación propedéutica y la formación técnica que se experimentan en los centros educativos pertenecientes al subsistema de Bachillerato Tecnológico Industrial y de Servicios, de control fede- ral. El análisis se centra en el lugar que ocupa cada una de estas formaciones en el modelo curricular, en los procesos de evaluación, en la dinámica institucional y en la demanda estudiantil. Los resultados indican el poco interés de los estudiantes y en general de la comunidad escolar por la educación técnica, en contraste con el impulso que recibe la formación propedéutica conducente a la educación superior. Se sugiere que esta predisposición es una muestra del alto grado de academización (academic drift) por el que está transitando el bachillerato tecnológico industrial. Abstract: This article examines the results obtained from a documentary study related to the tensions and dilemmas of general education versus vocational training as experienced in the high schools in Mexico's federal subsystem of Technical High Schools for Industry and Services. The analysis focuses on the place the two types of training occupy in the curriculum, assessment processes, institutional dynamics, and student demand. The results indicate that students and the general school community have little interest in technical education, in contrast with the enthusiasm shown for college preparatory studies.

  • Holidays and Observances, 2020
    Holidays and Observances, 2020 For Use By New Jersey Libraries Made by Allison Massey and Jeff Cupo Table of Contents A Note on the Compilation…………………………………………………………………….2 Calendar, Chronological……………….…………………………………………………..…..6 Calendar, By Group…………………………………………………………………………...17 Ancestries……………………………………………………....……………………..17 Religion……………………………………………………………………………….19 Socio-economic……………………………………………………………………….21 Library……………………………………...…………………………………….…...22 Sources………………………………………………………………………………....……..24 1 A Note on the Compilation This listing of holidays and observances is intended to represent New Jersey’s diverse population, yet not have so much information that it’s unwieldy. It needed to be inclusive, yet practical. As such, determinations needed to be made on whose holidays and observances were put on the calendar, and whose were not. With regards to people’s ancestry, groups that made up 0.85% of the New Jersey population (approximately 75,000 people) and higher, according to Census data, were chosen. Ultimately, the cut-off needed to be made somewhere, and while a round 1.0% seemed a good fit at first, there were too many ancestries with slightly less than that. 0.85% was significantly higher than any of the next population percentages, and so it made a satisfactory threshold. There are 20 ancestries with populations above 75,000, and in total they make up 58.6% of the New Jersey population. In terms of New Jersey’s religious landscape, the population is 67% Christian, 18% Unaffiliated (“Nones”), and 12% Jewish, Muslim, Buddhist, and Hindu. These six religious affiliations, which add up to 97% of the NJ population, were chosen for the calendar. 2% of the state is made up of other religions and faiths, but good data on those is lacking.
