Who is Joe Soptic, and why does he think so little of his dead wife that he'd use her corpse as a campaign prop for Barack Obama in what may be the most despicable ad in American Presidential campaign history?
In the ad, released Tuesday by super PAC Priorities USA and titled "Understands," Soptic makes his most heated claim to date, suggesting a link between his wife's death five years ago and the Bain takeover."
"When Mitt Romney and Bain closed the plant, I lost my health care, and my family lost their health care," Soptic says in the minute-long ad. "And a short time after that my wife became ill . . . she passed away in 22 days."
That assertion, however, is a bald-faced lie, as even the Obama surrogates at the Washington Post are forced to admit with a "four Pinocchio" rating, saying with disgust:
On just every level, this ad stretches the bounds of common sense and decency.
Soptic, a lifelong Democrat and union member, fails to mention the fact that Romney left Bain in 1999 to save the Salt Lake Winter Olympics from financial ruin, that the steel company didn't lay him off until 2001, and that his wife didn't discover her cancer and pass from that until five years after that, in 2006… seven years after Romney left Bain.
- Soptic used his wife's corpse to assert that Romney closed the plant, his family lost their healthcare, and as a result, Soptic's wife died.
- Soptic didn't mention that Romney wasn't active at Bain for two years before the layoffs.
- Soptic didn't mention that it wasn't until seven years after Romney left Bain that his wife's cancer was discovered.
- Soptic didn't mention that his wife was working and had her own insurance when he was laid off.
- Soptic didn't mention that there was no reason to even suspect his wife had cancer, that it was discovered in an already terminal phase, and that no insurance program could have changed her prognosis with such a late discovery.
Joe Soptic is a nasty piece of work, a disgraceful husband, and a union Democrat. No wonder Obama's Super PAC Priorities USA couldn't wait to use him for a Big Lie.
As for the Obama Campaign themselves, they won't refute the ad nor Soptic. The Big Lie, after all, is their favorite propaganda technique.

Filmmaker Sayles buys up island rice crop for film
The director, his cast and crew lived on the island while they shot the film and Sayles admits he made the most of the people and their crops.
He tells WENN, "For some of the younger parts I needed kids who really were comfortable climbing palm trees barefoot, harvesting rice by hand squatting, switching a caribou through a rice field and ploughing.
"I wanted kids who could do that physical work and not ones who went to prep school in Manilla. We lived on the island of Bohol, about 40 minutes away from where we shot. On the island they still grow rice and still plough by caribou; they can't get a tractor onto this particular bit of land, so we bought their rice crop without a middleman and they got to harvest three quarters of it.
"It was a good deal for the villagers. Plus, an awful lot of them ended up playing extras because they knew how to harvest rice.
"We had to tell them, though, that this is a movie set in 1900, during a war, and there's lines about people starving and not getting enough food, so the heavier members of the community could not be in the movie.
"There were a lot of disappointed people who just got to watch every day."

I am a 15 year old cake enthusiast making a cake for my birthday party which is going to be in a couple weeks but as usual im stoked for it already! I make cakes for my friends birthdays but I could not attend my friend Danielles party, and her request had been an 'ass-cake!'. Her birthday was about a week before mine and since she'll be at the party I figure I owe it to her to have an asscake.
this is what it will look like, but I ave NO Idea what the filling or cake recipies will be!! I know I would like it to be some sort of chocolate, but as for the filling I have no idea. I am good with all tastes and I want something rich and delicious. Your thoughts are appreciated!!

Bamboo is a favorite snack of the giant panda and has long been celebrated for its medicinal purposes. Now, it's being used to give smartphones a natural-tinged new look.
OnePlus, the company behind the OnePlus One, just officially unveiled a bamboo cover option for its ultra-affordable flagship phone, which being sold unlocked directly to customers. Arriving at the end of August, it's but one of three StyleSwap covers initially planned for the OnePlus One, which will also include Silk White—described on the OnePlus site as "silky smooth"—and Sandstone Black.
Here's what Florence Ion had to say in Greenbot's OnePlus One review:
"If you're looking for an 'un-flagship' that's free of carrier restrictions, is equipped with a beautiful display, offers up a multitude of customization options, and is powered by software that's supported by one very dedicated team of developers, it's certainly worth considering over any other unlocked Android device."
The OnePlus One isn't the first phone to offer wood encasing: the Moto X can be customized with your choice of four different wood finishes, including bamboo. Unlike the Moto X, which assembles your phone for you (and locks you into your style choice), the StyleSwap cover is like buying IKEA furniture: you have to assemble it yourself. OnePlus posted a video to show that it is a pretty painless process, though.
The bamboo cover will cost $50 when it arrives at the end of August, while the Silk White and Sandstone Black covers will cost $30.

It's evidently obvious how money is extremely vital in the sustainment of our livelihood. For centuries, there has been a norm that in exchange for any products and services, you have to pay a certain price for it. Money has always been the single most important factor for the existence of our civilization. So, it is pretty understandable as to why everyone is so obsessed with it. Every person wants to rich, but everyone is entitled to millions of dollars of inheritance. The majority of the world population, the common men and women have to earn their living and increase their bank balance only through sound investment.
But choosing where to invest and where not to, can be an extremely difficult task for most people. However knowledgeable you are, there is always the risk of incurring losses if the investment is not handled tactfully. If you take the examples of some of the richest persons in the world, you will notice that they have achieved what they have achieved only by investing their wealth in proper areas. What contrary to any conceptions, it isn't possible for a single individual of such magnitude to handle their wealth on their own. Behind the scenes, several professionals are responsible for making these people wealthier. These individuals are known as financial experts or planners whose service you can hire if you are looking to maximize your wealth.
Everyone has their goals in life; the things they want to achieve, but that can only be possible through sound planning. Frequently, people lose millions of dollars due to premature or hasty decisions and end up regretting the fact afterward. The market is constantly changing in every aspect which is why you will be well advised to keep yourselves updated with the latest trends. But it is also understandable that not everyone can gather such vital information. Some have the knack to research the market to know about viable options to invest their money while some don't; they just want maximize their income in any manner.
There are numerous ways one can invest their savings but amongst all the options there are few which are genuine and, unfortunately, some are set up for fraudulent activities. Differentiating which are genuine and which are not is a skill most people do not have. For such purposes, it is necessary to hire professionals who have relevant expertise in managing finances. But in what circumstances should you seek the assistance of these professionals?
• If you are looking to take out a loan
• Investing in an insurance scheme
• Wanting to invest in stocks, shares or any other mode of investment.
• Considering facilitating an annuity.
These are some of the few examples where professional assistance is extremely helpful. If you are planning to lead an independent and tension free life after your retirement, you plan it from now. Seek some advice from experts and they will tell you how to save efficiently and maximize your life's savings.

Interview With Author Rex Pickett: Up, Down, and Sideways
Vera Caccioppoli
Rex Picketts house is on a quiet tree-line street in Santa Monica. As I approach the porch to the quaint bungalow, I see that the front door is wide open. At the open door, I cant find a bell, and theres no one visible inside. Hello? I call. No response.
Im here to interview Pickett, who wrote the novel Sideways. The writer who helped change the landscape of the Central Coastal Wineries, the writer who created Miles and Jack, two middle-aged college buddies out for one last hurrah before Jacks wedding. Miles, the despairing unpublished novelist and Jack, the optimistic one-time bit soap actor, on a road trip, not to recapture something, because the point is their dreams have eluded them. More of the road is behind, than ahead, of them, and they feel the pinch, the narrowing of lifes possibilities.
I take this odd moment on the threshold to capture Rex Picketts wide-open abode in repose. A bike leans against a wall, mail is strewn on a table, non-descript bookcases are loaded to sagging point, two framed movie posters, From Hollywood to Deadwood and Sideways, provide the only art. The furniture is utilitarian, the room well lived-in. It is devoid of pretense. No hint of affectation.
I call out again, louder, and he appears, striding across the room to greet me. Hes tall with movie-star good looks. His greeting is both warm and cautious. And when we settle in, he says What would you like to know? Hes intense, engaged, willing to answer, to share.
Rex Pickett is a puzzle. Hes a produced screenwriter whose very first novel is made into a hit movie. But Pickett, the screenwriter, did not write the screenplay.
Picketts circuitous career leading up to Sideways accomplishes what all stories need to achieve: it reveals character and unleashes conflict and opposition in the characters path. It is, in effect, a classic Heros Journey.
A San Diego native, Pickett was raised in Claremont and attended UCSD. Like most overnight success stories, his was decades in the making.
He started writing poetry, lots of it, as a teenager. But at 19, he threw all of it in the trashall 1000+ pages. To understand why, is to understand a basic truth about Pickett: He has high standards, and he abhor's banality.
It wasnt good enough. I wanted to start over, he says, with a clean slate.
Pickett isnt a man who takes the easy path. While at UCSD, Pickett took two semesters off to do some reading It was a period of autodictaism and aesthetics. Turns out some reading included Carl Jungs collected works, a 20-volume set. It will teach you all you need to know about characterization, he says. Well, at least Volume Six, he adds with a grin.
More advice: Avoid all screenwriting books devoted to structure, plot paradigms, theories of outlining and plotting. If you are a storyteller, he says with certainty, the three acts will happen unwittingly. Its this simple: Beginning, Middle and End. And let me tell you this, if a storyteller doesnt know this intrinsically, hes not a writer. Then he tips back in his chair and indulges a smile, Trying to understand screenwriting that wayits like having sex in a wet suit.
He wrote five screenplays before From Hollywood to Deadwood, his first theatrical release, was made. Hed written and directed a couple of small films. And in 1999, a script he wrote, My Mother Dreams the Satans Disciples in New York, won an Academy Award for best live-action short. It was directed by his then wife, Barbara Schock. The script reads like literature, perfectly rendered. It was written, Pickett says, without compromise and directed without compromise, it moved from the page to the screen as purely as one could hope for.
But then, a rough patch. He wrote a detective novel that garnered interest but no publishers. His marriage ended. His mother had a stroke. Financially, creditors were held at bay as Pickett made desperate phone calls to family and friends. I had to take in a roommate, to make the rent, he says, pointing to one of the two bedrooms. I moved into my writing room. I considered myself a failure. It was the lowest point of my life.
The Beginning
From that desperation, Sideways was born.
Sideways is a very personal work, confessional, Pickett says. The intensity with which this is stated leaves little doubt I bared my soul. I am Miles.
He says this without addendum, without qualification. He lets his words stand naked despite the implications of this statement, the silent tabulations that the listener naturally makes. Like the décor of his home, what you see is what you get. Picket doesnt attempt to add pretty corners or waxed floors. He lets the truth do what it will.
The humanity of Sideways, the novel and the movie, is in its ability to move between comedy and tragedy, from moment to moment. At its best, it is both at the same moment. Pickett knows something about this.
I knew if I was going to write about failure and despair, I better lace it with humor," he says. "My first film was despair without humor and it ended up selling to German television. They were the only ones who were into just despair."
He originally started Sideways as a screenplay, but it didnt work, he says. It was all events and no interior voice. Then I began a short story which evolved into the novel. I realized that in writing it as prose and in the first person that I was able to use the interior monologue of Miles to give a perspective on the trip that the screenplay didnt have.
After writing the book, Pickett tried to adapt it into a screenplay. But it was like many novelists adapting their own work: my version read like a series of scenes from the book. The best adaptation comes from good screenwriters who arent afraid of changing things, screenwriters who have their own vision of what the book should beas a film.
Like his storys character Miles, who spends his trip with Jack waiting to hear from his agent about his latest manuscript, Picketts future was riding on his own unpublished novel. His agents shopped Sideways simultaneously to the print and Hollywood folks. Nine months later, when it seemed that his last chance had run out, Sideways was pulled out of the reading stack by a young assistant to writer/director Alexander Payne (Election, About Schmidt). Pickett praises Payne and his writing partner Jim Taylor on their script. Sideways went on to be nominated for 5 Academy Awards, including Best Picture. And, with irony abounding, its only Oscar went for Best Adapted Screenplay.
Its all about characterization, Pickett says intensely, leaning forward. Without characters, you have no story. Characters are alive, breathing, and if youre honest about your work, you cant make them do something against their nature.
Pickett develops the characters in his head first, then the story. My characters are living beings in my mind. He uses characterization and dialogue to create differentiation. Opposites attract and create conflict; create tension. Miles and Jack are opposites.
Miles is introverted, and for him the glass of wine is always half empty; and Jack is the extrovert, his glass is always half full. Miles loves Jacks ability to walk into a restaurant and light up the room! Pickett says, his eyes alive, as if he just started to talk about a lover. You gotta love Jack, the way he can turn any situation around and make it seem positive!
In the screen adaptation, Payne chose to give Miles a respectable job, teaching eighth grade. In Picketts novel, Miles has nothing solid to fall back on, nothing to make failure palatable. Only the free-fall of despair. It makes failure cost more and is one of the biggest differences between the novel and the screenplay.
Its also the way Pickett has lived his life.
Ive known some talented people who didnt have the courage to follow the path, and Ive known some mediocre ones who were so obstinate about making it that they just bulled their way to success. The need writers have to express themselves grips them, some more intensely than others. And you either have the courage to follow that path or you dont. Thats not fate, thats choice.
He believes in free will, hard work, and having the goods when luck shows up. As for God? It is for me the Unknowable thingcall it, like Jung, the Unconsciousthat entity greater than me who descends on me with dreams, ideas, fears, exhortations. I do feel there are forces outside my ability that are shaping me, annealing me in some invisible way. But I dont surrender to organized religion, to a being greater than me whos puppeteering my fate and decreeing whether, at the Rapture, or my death, whether Im headed to heaven or hell. If Heaven is where shallow-thinking people are going, then Ill take hell. And at least I know Ill be in good company with other artists. Plus the wine will be better.
Endings, though, are important. I saw an early draft of Paynes screenplay in which the movie ends with Mayas long phone message to Miles. If it ends like that, Pickett shakes his head, puts his right hand to his temple and mimes pulling the trigger of a gun. Might as well hear a gunshot.
The movie doesnt end like that, though. The last scene is of Miles on Mayas doorstep, ready to try again, knocking and waiting. There has to be a sense of hope and redemption, Pickett says.
I believe in the innate need to writein whatever formand then whatever happens, happens, Picket says. He never expected the writing life to be easy; he expected sacrifice. I have never thought that art should pay bills. I think writing as a career comes second to writing as life.
But dont mistake him for a saint. Pickett says that he has thought of selling out, writing for commercial success, Look, in desperate moments I think: What would make me a lot of money? But its hard to fake. Its hard to be good when youre faking it.
In Picketts absolute world, theres this strong sense that if you lose your integrity, you lose you soul.
Thats a price too high to pay, Pickett says in his intense way. What youre doing is what youre becoming; what youve done is what youve become.
Picketts living room turns into a cluster of shadows as the sun recedes. Perhaps being semi-cloaked in darkness, Picketts humanity, his vulnerability, lies closer to the surface. He seems spent by his own intensity.
He is Milesbut with a different ending. And so now is the time to ask the question I have been turning over in my mind through the afternoon: Are you happier now, since Sideways?
Pickett exhales and leans back in his chair. Im certainly more comfortable than I was before. He explains, I still possess that same sense of pressure to write better, to dredge out of me the deepest, most truthful expression of myif I can be so arrogantartistic being. And Sideways seriously raised the bar on what I expect from myself.
And from what others expect as well. But the question hasnt been answered. So I again ask: Are you happier now, since Sideways?
Picketts fingers make a tee-pee and he leans his chin into them. As I wait for him to speak, I think back over the interview, about how for the first time in his life hes being paid an advance (Knopf) for his next novel, how hes bombarded with requests for appearances at wineries and readings and book signings. And I think about Miles, Picketts autobiographical character. What if Miless agent had called to give the happy news that his novel had been sold? How would that have changed the story? What would Miless reaction have been? Initial euphoria, yes, and a splurge on a pricey Pinotbut beyond that, what? Would success have helped Miles get over his obsession about his ex-wife? Would he drink less? Would he chose the light over the dark?
Pickett finally speaks, through his interlaced fingers. Happiness is, for most people, contentment. But contentment for an artist is death.
In preparing for the interview I had read Picketts explanation on how success had changed him: "I drive a car now that, when you get in it, it smells like it's going to start." I liked the wry understatement.
But I ask again, for a third time: Are you happier since Sideways?
There is a long beat.
Then Pickett answers.
No. Im not happier.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
I recently had an accident in a local h-e-b store. I slipped and sprained my right ankle. I slipped on some spilled liquid that had no wet floor sign oor anybody guarding the hazardous area. I called to report the accident because the pain in my ankle got much worse on the way home. I spoke to the store manager and they took my information and then stated that I would receive a call within 24-48 hours of the accident, and that is a call that I never received. I could not go to the hospital because I am unemployed & can not afford health care. So what can I do to settle this?
Slip and fall cases in Texas can be very difficult to win. The biggest issue is finding some evidence of how the spill ended up on the floor and how long it had been there. Without this evidence, you will not survive summary judgment in Texas. I recommend first going to the emergency room if you are clearly injured. I would then contact a personal injury attorney in your area for a free consultation.Ask a similar question
I agree with Daniel.
My responses to questions on Avvo are never intended as legal advice and must not be relied upon as legal advice. I give legal advice only in the course of an attorney-client relationship. Exchange of information through Avvo's Questions forum does not establish an attorney-client relationship with me. That relationship is established only by individual consultation and execution of a written agreement for legal services.Ask a similar question
The store is only responsible for dangerous conditions that it knew about or should have known about. That means the liguid had to have been on the floor long enough that the store should have found it. If the spil had just happened a few minutes earlier, then that would not have been enough time that the store should have seen it. Unfortunately, you are the one who has to prove how long it had been there. So there would have to be something about the condition of the spill that showed how old it was or there would have to be some evidence that someone else has reported it long enough ago. Most stores have video cameras, and that might help, but the store is not going to be cooperative in giving you information. If your injuries are severe enough, get a lawyer. Most important, get treatment. If you cannot afford care, go to the ER of the county hospital. There are ways to get care when you cannot afford it.
This is not legal advice. You should always discuss the specifics of your issue in person with an attorney. Be aware that there are time limits on all claims that depend on the kind of claim, so do not delay in seeking an attorney.Ask a similar question

The mural, which bore the slogan "Welcome to the UFF heartland Shankill Road. Quis separabit", was on the side of a Kentucky Fried Chicken outlet.
It was removed after the New York City Comptroller contacted KFC headquarters.
He reminded the company that New York's Pension Funds owned KFC shares worth more than $30m.
The mural was painted over within 24 hours.
In a new report, the comptroller, William C Thompson - who manages more than $90bn in pension funds - said he acted in defence of the MacBride Principles on employment.
These consist of nine fair employment principles.
The report said the Shankill incident showed "the ability of the Pension Funds to act swiftly in defense of the MacBride Principles".
It said when the mural was brought to the attention of the Comptroller's office it "brought strong and swift pressure to bear".
The report goes on to say: "Since 2003, Comptroller Thompson has negotiated MacBride implementation agreements with several major US companies with significant franchise operations in Northern Ireland, including the Marriot hotel chain, Coca-Cola and ExxonMobil."
It said the KFC controversy "demonstrated the need for New York City to expand the scope of its enforcement of its statutory MacBride Principles mandates to include all companies with active franchise operations in Northern Ireland".
It said this should be the case "even if they had no direct employees in the province".

1. Re: problem with nsswitch.conf on solaris 9abrante Jan 11, 2011 7:45 AM (in response to 829989)
user13689398 wrote:When you login the login system will probably try to determine all the users groups, which means that it will search through, in this case, both the local files and the LDAP system, even if the user was found in the local /etc/passwd file.
I am having a problem with nsswitch.conf on solaris 9. I have the following lines in my nsswitch.conf:
passwd: files [SUCCESS=return NOTFOUND=continue UNAVAIL=continue TRYAGAIN=1] ldap
group: files [SUCCESS=return NOTFOUND=continue UNAVAIL=continue TRYAGAIN=1] ldap
The problem is with the "group" line. For some reason, when I log in with a valid unix id (passes passwd validation using "files"), the group evalutes to NOTFOUND. I know this to be the case because when I try to log in, the server is calling my ldap process to find the group, even when I log in with a local unix account. If I change the group line to:
group: files [SUCCESS=return NOTFOUND=return UNAVAIL=continue TRYAGAIN=1] ldap, my local login will work, (because of NOTFOUND=return) but then I can't log in with ldap user ids.
I think the above instructions (SUCCESS=return NOTFOUND=return UNAVAIL=continue TRYAGAIN=1) makes more sence when looking up a single group, and not so much sence when login in and getting all the users groups...
/etc/passwd for the user in question is:I'm sorry, but which group did it not find?
and /etc/group is:
iduid=65090(embr_dev) gid=100(netrac)
Why is unix not finding the group?Well, since the users GID in /etc/passwd is '100', Solaris will understand that that is group 'netrac', so you don't have to put the user in the group netrac as well..
Thanks in advance for any help you can give!
I.e: the user will belong to its primary group (the group defined in /etc/passwd), so you don't have to add the user to the primary group in /etc/group ..
2. Re: problem with nsswitch.conf on solaris 9829989 Jan 11, 2011 2:49 PM (in response to 829989)Thanks for the reply.
I have tried to test with other users from the "netrac" group as well who do not appear in /etc/passwd with identical results.
From the id command above, it looks to me that when the nsswitch.conf is run on these users or on embr_dev, the group line should trigger SUCCESS since the unix group is defined, but it does not. For some reason, it triggers NOTFOUND. I am trying to figure out why.

Risk and resilience – a booming insurance industry in Latin America
- Details
01 May 2014 11:28
by Chris Crowe
Latin America has new frontier status for the insurance sector, but the region's renowned volatility is always a concern
Bristol-based DAC Beachcroft insurance partner David Pollitt is a regular visitor to Miami. But while tourists may be lured by the tropical climate and art deco architecture, his frequent trips from West Country to East Coast are all about his practice. The emergence of Miami as an operational and service centre for Latin America means its importance to major international insurance players cannot be underestimated.
Miami is fast becoming a gateway to Latin America for the insurance and reinsurance industry, in the same way that Singapore operates as an insurance hub for Asia. Swiss Re established a Miami office in 2011 to service Latin America and the Spanish-speaking Caribbean islands. Back in 2007, Zurich (a key client of DAC Beachcroft) moved its Latin American regional headquarters from Santiago, Chile, to Miami. The trend continues: Hiscox announced the expansion of its Miami branch in January this year.
Randy Bullard, chair of Greenberg Traurig's Miami corporate and securities practice, has lived in Florida for 17 years and has noticed a significant upswing in business recently. 'People always talk about Miami as being a business hub for Latin America, but in the last two or three years there have been a stream of new companies locating themselves here. You have the multinationals investing in Latin America and you have the Latin American conglomerates coming to invest in the US. Miami is the natural jumping off point, culturally, linguistically and economically.'
And as the Latin American insurance and reinsurance market becomes increasingly developed in Miami, the same is happening at a more local level throughout the region itself. Mounting demand for infrastructure and an expanding middle class is creating a perfect environment for the international insurance and reinsurance community to flourish in some of the continent's biggest economies.
Expansive approach
Marta Viegas, head of insurance and reinsurance at Brazilian law firm TozziniFreire, says that the insurance sector in Brazil has experienced double-digit growth for many years. 'As the market becomes more sophisticated, we expect regulations to change and demand for regulatory work to increase,' she says.
According to the head of Clyde & Co's Latin America group in London, Peter Hirst, many global insurance companies used to have small presences in the region and dealt with claims back in London or other large offices, but now many are handling the majority of their claims on the ground in Latin America. Zurich is one example: it has offices in Argentina, Brazil, Chile and Mexico; while insurance and reinsurance group ACE now has a significant Latin American operation based in Santiago. Swiss Re established a representative office in the Colombian capital Bogotá in 2013 and earlier this year it acquired a 51% stake in the Colombian surety company Compañía Aseguradora de Fianzas and also a 14.9% stake in Brazilian insurance company SulAmérica from ING Group. Willkie Farr & Gallagher's New York office advised Swiss Re on the Colombia deal with Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer's New York office advising the reinsurance giant on the Brazilian transaction.
The intricacies of the market, coupled with the internationalisation of the sector, have favourable implications for insurance-focused law firms. Leonel Pereznieto Del Prado, a partner at Mexico practice Creel, García-Cuéllar, Aíza y Enríquez, says that the demand for legal services has risen enormously. 'It is very common for insurance companies to reach out to external counsel to handle different transactions. Before, portfolio transfers were done on a very elementary basis.'
Firms are certainly increasing their focus on the Latin American insurance sector. DAC Beachcroft established a new presence in Colombia in December 2013 by formalising its association with Bogotá insurance boutique De La Torre & Monroy Abogados and Pollitt says the firm now covers the four main markets in Latin America with further offices in Mexico and Chile, and an association with Brazilian insurance and litigation boutique JBO Advocacia. 'It requires investment,' he says. 'We are putting our money where our mouth is.'
Kennedys is also talking up its Latin American practice. It currently runs its business out of its Miami office but Alex Guillamont, head of the firm's Latin America practice, says the firm has strong associations with local firms in Brazil, Chile, Colombia and Mexico and is 'constantly assessing' other markets to establish whether it should have a presence there: 'If our clients need a new office in one specific country, we will open it for sure.' Last year it entered an association with Bogotá insurance boutique Botero Salazar Tobón & Abogados.
Meanwhile, at Clyde & Co, Hirst says that the firm is looking to launch a presence in Mexico and Chile within 12 to 18 months. It already has well established offices in Brazil and Venezuela.
Jonathan Bruce, an insurance and reinsurance partner in the London office of Holman Fenwick Willan (HFW), believes his firm's historical efforts in Latin America are being rewarded. 'People have been talking about the potential for a long time and we do see it coming to fruition more and more with reinsurers setting up in the region,' he says. HFW established a São Paulo office in October 2011 with the hire of Jeremy Shebson and his team from Barlow Lyde & Gilbert. Shebson remarks: 'Latin America has all the key industry sectors – oil and gas, mining, marine and aviation – all of which are underpinned by insurance and the London market.'
Cross-border Chile: a booming market
With its rich natural resources, Chile is currently the darling of South America. It has one of the highest GDPs per capita in the region and Fitch gives it an A+ credit rating, compared to a mere BBB in Brazil. 'It is the most advanced economy in Latin America,' Jorge Martín, a partner at Chilean firm Claro & Cia argues.
Chile's small population, but booming economy, is encouraging major Chilean corporates to expand their businesses into other Latin American jurisdictions. Earlier this year, Claro & Cia and Simpson Thacher & Bartlett advised Chile's fourth-largest private bank, Banco CorpBanca, on its announced stock-for-stock merger with Banco Itaú Chile and the combination of CorpBanca's and Itaú Unibanco's operations in Colombia. Simpson Thacher and Chilean practice Santiago Jaramillo Villamizar & Asociados also represented CorpBanca on its recent tender offer to buy Colombia's Helm Bank. And in 2013, Simpson Thacher advised Chile's largest telecoms company, Empresa Nacional de Telecomunicaciones (Entel), on its $400m acquisition of the Peruvian operations of NII Holdings.
Martín acknowledges that Chilean companies are feeling compelled to grow into other markets. 'We have seen that the strength and experience that certain companies have acquired in the Chilean market have encouraged them to seek opportunities in other markets.'
Chile's wealth is partially driven by its mining resources: it is the world's biggest producer and exporter of copper. Yet it doesn't have the oil and gas wealth of many of its neighbours and there are serious concerns about whether the nation has enough power supply to maintain mining activities and other industrial concerns. Pipelines across the Andes from Argentina have provided an erratic supply, so Chile has sought other sources, such as liquefied natural gas.
David Williams, head of Simpson Thacher's Latin America practice, says that Chile's economic success and its demand for reliable energy has created a vibrant environment for cross-border M&A. He also believes that the Chilean business culture accounts for much of the nation's recent success: 'There is a near-universal sense of transparency, ethics and professional rigour that is remarkable. It has really world-class standards. What is expected when you do a deal is that you do it right, you do it legally, you do it ethically and you do it on time.'
Needing attention
Insurance runs deep in fast-developing economies that require infrastructure to galvanise growth, and Latin America is a classic example of a region where the environment is primitive compared to the US and western Europe. Many Latin American states are sitting on substantial oil and gas reserves (for example, see box, 'Down Mexico way'), and they are working hard to enable these to meet requirements for domestic consumption and to export to neighbouring and other jurisdictions. Others, such as Chile, are struggling to generate enough power to fuel their quickly expanding economies.
Paulino Fajardo, a partner in DAC Beachcroft's Madrid office, says: 'Latin America is still to develop. It has the natural resources, but the need for infrastructure is massive. The market needs financial stability and you need insurance behind all these operations. Risk is normally where we operate. You can't open a mine or a power station without building a financial services sector.' Fajardo points to the Panama Canal extension project, which is one of numerous infrastructure enhancements under way in the region.
Social mobility is another reason why insurance products and the insurance industry are flourishing. 'People have more income,' says Marcelo Mansur Haddad, a partner at Brazilian firm Mattos Filho, Veiga Filho, Marrey Jr e Quiroga. 'There is growth in the purchase capacity of Brazilians and there are many big infrastructure projects still to do. There is a boom in both areas.' Last year, Mattos Filho advised on the privatisation of IRB Brasil Re and also worked on the $4.25bn IPO of BB Seguridade Participações – Banco do Brasil's insurance arm.
The same trend is occurring throughout Latin America. Rafael Corzo de la Colina, partner at Miranda & Amado Abogados in Peru, says that although international insurance companies have a limited presence in the jurisdiction, there are mounting domestic needs: 'Peruvian economic growth has determined an important growth in the middle class and, as a consequence, in life, health, home and automobile insurance.'
Luis Alfonso Fernández, a Madrid-based insurance partner at Hogan Lovells, believes that all these factors are creating a near-perfect environment in which the insurance industry can prosper: 'We have seen a growing interest from insurance giants in the region to offer a wide range of traditional products, but also of specialised players, focused on special classes of insurance such as credit and surety.'
With increasing demand for insurance products, the industry is also contending with the gradual liberalisation of domestic markets. Brazil is the major jurisdiction that has opened up its insurance sector in recent years. Until 2007, when the Brazilian reinsurance market was liberalised, IRB Brasil Re had a total monopoly over reinsurance activities in the jurisdiction.
Since then, the reinsurance sector has blossomed and there are now some 80 reinsurance companies active, according to Bruno Balduccini, a partner at Pinheiro Neto. However, 'the market is still virgin as far as products and services are concerned,' he comments.
Claudia Freire, the head of the Latin America desk at JLegal London, the recruitment company, says that these sort of reforms are creating additional demand in the legal community. And this is despite restrictions placed on foreign law firms by the Brazilian Bar Association. She points to the recent arrival of Norton Rose Fulbright in Rio de Janeiro and the extension of Hogan Lovells' presence in Brazil by launching an additional office in São Paulo in January 2014. 'Despite the restrictions placed on foreign law firms by the Brazilian Bar Association, Brazil has continued maturing as a legal market for international law firms, attracting an ongoing flow of firms wishing to set up offices in 2014 or expand their presence in Brazil,' she explains.
Even with this optimism, Viegas believes that the rapid evolution of the market poses numerous challenges to the insurance industry specifically. With international players coming in, the industry has been forced to mature very quickly. 'Insurance companies had to adapt to working in a more complex and sophisticated environment, with many different international reinsurers, as opposed to only dealing with IRB, which was viewed as a "friendly" business partner. In this regard, negotiations have become more complex,' she says.
By contrast, Chile's insurance sector is still very much in its infancy, despite its recent economic success, says Jorge Martín, a partner at Chilean firm Claro & Cia. 'Given that we are still a developing country, the penetration of insurance in Chile still has a long way to go.'
Like Chile, Mexico has a burgeoning economy and has opened up its insurance sector as part of its recent market liberalisation efforts. Previously, foreign companies were limited to a 49% stake in Mexican insurers and reinsurers, although Pereznieto Del Prado says that the deregulation of the market has been largely symbolic as most foreign insurance companies were able to circumvent the restrictions by using European Union (EU) and North American Free Trade Agreement investment treaties.
With its attempts to encourage international investment and participation in the economy, Mexico is also adopting new insurance industry regulations based on the EU's Solvency II Directive, which seeks to harmonise insurance sector regulation. The Mexican rules are due to come into force in April 2015 and are expected to have a profound effect on the domestic market. 'It is an interesting time for the insurance market here with Solvency II kicking in in a year's time. There's likely to be quite a bit of M&A activity here in Mexico,' says Pereznieto Del Prado.
Carlos Ramos Miranda, a partner at Barrera, Siqueiros y Torres Landa, is also enthusiastic about the regulatory overhaul. 'Mexico's regulations are among the most sophisticated and developed, so that companies are properly capitalised and have proper corporate governance rules. Mexico decided in the best interests of the industry to have stronger institutions. I think we will be a leader in Latin America and worldwide, given the scope of these amendments.'
Ramos believes that insurance companies are faced with a significant but surmountable challenge to stay attuned to the existing regulations while making provisions for the new environment in 2015. He suggests that many Mexican companies will struggle to find the resources to commit to the new regulations. 'Many companies, including smaller companies, will face a big challenge in getting up to speed and being fully compliant,' he explains. 'They'll need to invest resources that they simply may not have. The situation is ripe for acquisitions of smaller companies and consolidation of mid-sized and big companies. And there is room for new players in the market.'
Mexico itself represents a particularly dynamic environment for the insurance industry given the government's recent efforts to liberalise the economy (see 'Down Mexico Way'). Yves Hayaux-du-Tilly, a London-based partner at Mexican firm Nadar, Hayaux & Goebel, says that the government's proposals to allow international oil majors into Mexico's energy industry and to end the monopoly held by Petróleos Mexicanos (Pemex), will be a monumental development for the insurance industry: 'The energy reform that will now permit private companies to compete with Pemex, will continue increasing the demand for insurance. We are experiencing a demand for the development of new insurance products, the growth of non-traditional distribution channels and to a certain extent more demand for opinions on coverage related issues and for advice on claims and alternative resolution methods.'
Down Mexico way: the burgeoning oil and gas sector
In 1938, Mexican president Lázaro Cárdenas became a national hero by declaring that all oil and mineral reserves within the jurisdiction belonged to the state. For nearly 80 years, the state-owned Petróleos Mexicanos (Pemex) has been responsible for oil exploration and production, right through to running every single gasoline station in Mexico.
Today Pemex accounts for about a third of the federal government's tax revenue, but while investment into exploration and production has increased dramatically in recent years, production has actually dipped to 2.5 million barrels a day, compared to its peak of 3.5 million barrels a decade ago.
Much of the more easily accessible oil reserves are depleting, so Mexico is looking to deep-water reserves and other energy sources, such as the shale gas opportunities around the border with Texas.
The economic reforms initiated by the current president Enrique Peña Nieto are expected to reinvigorate the oil and gas sector. In December, Mexico's congress approved a bill to end Pemex's monopoly and open the market for foreign investment. Dallas Parker, a Houston partner at Mayer Brown, says this is a historic moment for the oil and gas industry. 'It is hard to find a precedent for such a dramatic opening of a market that has been so closed. I can't think of another single event as dramatic as this one in Mexico.'
Carlos Ramos Miranda, a partner at Mexican practice Barrera, Siqueiros y Torres Landa says that the reforms are going to create an assortment of new engagements for the local legal market. 'It's going to boost participation in the downstream, midstream and upstream sectors. Clients are going to need assistance with regulatory processes, administrative law, labour law, litigation, tax and corporate strategy. I hope it boosts our practice in many areas.' Ramos also indicates that Mexico currently does not have the requisite infrastructure to satisfy the demands of major oil companies and so road developments, among other infrastructure enhancements, are going to be essential.
Benjamín Torres-Barrón, head of Baker & McKenzie's energy, mining and infrastructure practice in Mexico, believes that the reforms are 'truly a game-changer' for the nation, because they 'finally allow private parties to participate in a greater manner in several activities that were previously restricted or exclusively reserved to the Mexican state'.
'The reforms in Mexico have ended a 75-year-old monopoly and the opportunities now available are significant,' says Elisabeth Eljuri, Norton Rose Fulbright's Caracas-based head of Latin America. 'What is most noteworthy is that, for the first time, Mexico will now allow production and profit-sharing contracts, licences and other contracts in the upstream business. This will invite massive investment in the oil and gas sector from the international oil industry.'
Mexico is technically a new market for the international oil and gas community, but it is different in that much of the oil reserves are already proven. Unlike other new frontier markets, the oil and gas industry is well aware that Mexico has enormous oil wealth. There will not be the same hesitancy and anxiety that oil majors experience when entering new exploration markets.
Pemex will essentially move from being an arm of the government to a productive state enterprise and the government hopes to wean itself from a heavy reliance on taxed revenues from the institution.
Sean Goldstein, a finance partner in White & Case's Mexico City office, is also incredibly optimistic about the government's wider economic initiatives. 'The government has passed a whole slew of reforms beyond the energy sector during the past year and combined with the fundamentals – a young population, natural resources, stable democracy, sound fiscal policy and a great need for investment in infrastructure, energy, oil and gas – we think there is a real opportunity for investors.'
The positive outlook also has favourable implications for Central America and the rest of Latin America. Blake Winburne, global head of McDermott Will & Emery's energy advisory practice, believes that increases in domestic production will change the dynamics in Central America and even the Caribbean, where he expects Mexico to have a greater influence in those markets. He comments: 'It is a region where the pendulum is swinging towards lots of international capital being invested. Whether that is a decade-long cycle, who knows, but we plan to be participating in this market.'
With very little political, fiscal, economic and regulatory uniformity across the region, Latin America still represents an enormous challenge to international insurers and reinsurers that wish to target the whole region. Not every country is experiencing healthy growth and volatility is still in evidence. Political instability is a big problem, with Argentina and Venezuela particularly suffering a decline in cross-border trade and investment.
This has implications for the insurance industry as well. Boston-based insurance group Liberty Mutual sold its Argentine insurance business to Kranos Capital in March this year. Liberty had only established its Buenos Aires reinsurance operations in 2012.
Pablo Cereijido, a partner at Argentine firm Marval O'Farrell & Mairal, is understandably circumspect. 'Things have been difficult. We have not seen big players coming in or big transactions. It was different three or four years ago when there was heavy investment in Latin America and Argentina was part of that wave of investment. We have had to adjust to the new environment.'
Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer New York corporate partner Doug Bacon says that the fragmented market necessitates more sophisticated and intensive legal assistance. 'As much as buyers want detailed predictions about risks in a market when doing a transaction, it can be very challenging in some Latin American markets in fields such as tax, litigation and regulatory compliance. We often spend more time on diligence and digging into issues and there is often more partner time involved.'
Clyde & Co's Hirst also says that most international insurance programmes are common law-based and it is a significant challenge to 'shoehorn these into civil law states'.
Jeremy Irving, a London-based insurance partner at Eversheds who recently advised IRB Brasil Re on its re-entry into the London market as a live participant, says that Latin America is an intricate landscape. 'What we have found is that there is a whole mixture of rules around licensing, compulsory types of insurance, and whether a regulatory offence is criminal offence or civil. It is fair to say there is a real mixture and there are hazards in different jurisdictions. It is much easier in Europe with the single market, but you have to be mindful of the patchwork of regulations that make up the rest of the world.'
Fajardo says that international insurance companies need to have a global approach to business, but a local approach to compliance, using experts in each jurisdiction. 'People can think of Latin America as one big country, but we feel that is a huge mistake.'
Nonetheless, João Marcelo Máximo dos Santos, a partner at Brazil's Demarest, feels that although there are sizeable differences between the regimes in states such as Brazil, Chile and Venezuela, there are still common characteristics that effective legal counsel can overcome. This requires a keen understanding of each market according to Bruce at HFW. 'It is recognised by the London market that Latin America is one of those regions where it is quite tricky to have the local contacts, and the knowledge and experience, to navigate all the issues that arise down there. So people really do need our help. The local regulatory scenario changes quite frequently. The markets can open up and then close down.'
Therefore, all this optimism about the prospects for insurance law firms is tempered by a whiff of Latin America's renowned volatility. Chile's earthquake in 2010 was foremost a humanitarian disaster, but from a commercial perspective it led to insured losses of over $8bn, according to reports. And just as Latin America is increasingly linking into global markets, the political climate in individual states can change dramatically and lead to recluse-like status, such as with Argentina.
Many recognise that the heat can quickly evaporate from a supercharged market. Pinheiro Neto's Balduccini even considers the significance of the FIFA World Cup this year and jokes: 'If Brazil loses, then we close the business.' LB

I am connecting to the corporate network with cisco vpn client.
When I do I have no access to the remote corporate servers what am I missing?
Thanks in advance.
14 Replies
Sep 14, 2009 at 4:42 UTC
how are you trying to connect to them?
have you tried a unc path?
are you rdp'd into a local machine?
can you ping them?
Sep 14, 2009 at 4:43 UTC
Check DNS you may not be getting internal addresses. so Ping myserver will not work, but ping 192.168.1.10 would.
Sep 14, 2009 at 4:48 UTC
There could be a couple of different problems.
are the remote corp servers on your end of the VPN or the far end?
if they are near end, disconnect the vpn, select the profile in question, click on modify in the toolbar. select the transport tab and then check the allow local lan access box.
if the servers are on the far end, it could be a DNS issue.
If your firwall is the vpn entry point and the router for your corporate network, and your DNS is external to the corporate network then you will not be able to access DNS.
that's confusing.
if DNS is outside and you are outside tunneling in, and you both gain access from the same physical and logical port on the ASA, to access DNS requires you to "hairpin" which is not possible in any configuration I have seen.
There are two ways to solve this:
You can add the servers to your hosts file. to do that you need the IP address and name of each server.
server1 192.168.1.1
server2 192.168.1.200
and so forth.
Or you can install a DNS server inside your firewall.
to get to your hosts file, go start menu -> run and type "drivers" in the command box.
windows explorer will open pointing to the drivers directory. click on etc to open "etc" and then open host in notepad. (or your fave editor) add the lines for your servers, sav and close file as hosts, with no extension in the etc folder.
Sep 14, 2009 at 5:05 UTC
What version of the VPN client are you using? We had a similar issue with the 4.6 client not working on some ISPs (DNS issue) - once we ugpraded everyone to 4.8 or 5.0, we had no more issues.
Everyone is probably right though that it is a DNS issue.
Sep 14, 2009 at 5:06 UTC
I am connecting with the cisco vpn client and it asks for credintials and everything looks good the lock locks.
go to browse through windows explorer and it fails to find server using ip address or computer name
rdp does not work to the dns server neither does a ping but have a local address when an ipconfig is done on the cisco interface
Sep 14, 2009 at 5:23 UTC
Does it work for anyone? It has something to do with the way the trunk is set up in the ASA probably.
What client are you using?
Sep 14, 2009 at 5:39 UTC
It works for noone.
Cisco vpn client version 5.0.04.0300
Sep 14, 2009 at 5:42 UTC
have you tried setting up the ssl clientless vpn and using that? or does your solution have to be client based?
Sep 14, 2009 at 5:47 UTC
Not to be a pessimist, but setting up a Cisco VPN is a relatively complex thing to do - it may be worth working with a VAR for an hour or two just to make sure that you get everything set up properly if you're not comfortable with the interface. The good thing with the ASAs is that once it is working, it is a tank, so it is worth the initial investment.
It has been forever since I configured mine, but you need to be looking at the Tunnel Group & the IP address assignment. I will see if I can find my notes outlining it better.
Sep 14, 2009 at 5:54 UTC
would prefer a client based login
Sep 14, 2009 at 6:07 UTC
First things first - are you the only one experiencing the problem, or is everyone?
Has it ever worked before?
Did you remember to specify translation groups for the traffic?
Whats your network topology look like?
Give us that info and we'll go forward. :)
Sep 14, 2009 at 7:23 UTC
Add the servers ip addresses and names to your hosts file and a script to run when connecting like at work.
Sep 14, 2009 at 7:27 UTC
Have you checked your vpn client log?
do you have any help from where the vpn endpoint is located. if you cannot ping either ip or name, you may not have a complete connection.
Perhaps the address pool being served is not in the same subnet as the servers you are trying to access. There is a whole potload of stuff that could be wrong. For me, it was DNS I set up a forwarder and all was good.
Sep 24, 2009 at 9:56 UTC
1st Post
Another thing to check with the VPN client if you're not able to receive ANY traffic coming back from the corporate headquarters is your NAT rules.
Usually, you'll have to add a nonat statement for the networks that you want to be able to reach remotely.
For instance, if your VPN Clients are grabbing an address in the 192.168.30.0/24 range and you want your remote computers to be able to access hosts that reside on your corporate LAN in the 192.168.20.0/24 range, you'll need an access list statement that looks like this:
access-list extended nonat permit ip 192.168.20.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.30.0 255.255.255.0.
Hope that helps!

Stocking Shimeji by ran-himeWatch
©2010-2017 ran-hime
I've disabled comments after receiving quite a lot asking how to download these (even with the easy enough to follow instructions I already provided) and also that my shimejis aren't working and such problems like that. Please read the instructions below and visit the FAQ I linked if you're still having problems.
As for upcoming shimeji's, I may have mentioned it to some but there's a good chance I may not make the rest. I've neither the interest nor spare time to allocate to this project.
Following that up, I'd appreciate if people could please stop requesting for me to LINK them to the other shimejis. I honestly would share them with everyone if ever they existed but because they remain incomplete, I sadly cannot.
With that, thank you all VERY MUCH for enjoying my shimejis and for the lovely comments you left me. I really do appreciate them.
If you have any more comments, questions and concerns that have been unanswered, feel free to drop me a line. ^^
Stocking Shimeji from the anime Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt.

Also, tried my best to get rid of any white pixels so hope you like! ouo

I will no longer be helping nor answering any more questions about why you can't use my shimejis. I've described how to properly download them and I am positive the files are all intact. Please figure it out on your own.
For those having problems:
- You need to download winRAR to be able to extract (Google if you don't know where to dl)
- You need to have JAVA for her to work

TAIPEI, Taiwan (AP) Newlywed Yao Ming said he's enjoying his "new life" but must intensify training to play for the national team in the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
The Chinese NBA star made a rare revelation Saturday about his marriage to Ye Li - a player on the Chinese women's basketball team - during a visit to Taiwan as part of sports exchanges between the political rivals.
"You're married and that comes with a bigger responsibility," Yao told reporters. "I felt something that I never felt before. I have a new life."
The couple has no immediate plans for a baby because Ye went back to school following their marriage last month, Yao said.
"I have to focus my energy on the Olympics," he said.
Later Saturday, Yao played a friendly game in Hsinchu in northern Taiwan. The 7-foot-6 center teamed up with two Taiwanese boys in a game against several Chinese players.
Most of the time, a smiling Yao passed the ball to the boys, who only reach his waist, and let them score.
SAPPORO, Japan (AP) - Trey Hillman, the manager of the Japan Series champion Nippon Ham Fighters, said Saturday he will step down at the end of this season.
"I will not be returning after this season," the 44-year-old said. "This is strictly for personal reasons. The dynamics have changed here, the needs of my family have changed in the past five years."
Hillman made the announcement following Saturday's 5-1 loss to the Seibu Lions at Sapporo Dome.
After leading the Fighters to their first Japan Series title in 44 years last season, Hillman interviewed with the Texas Rangers, Oakland A's and San Diego Padres in the offseason, but ended up back in Japan for another year with Nippon Ham.
After a successful career as a minor league manager in the Yankees organization, Hillman is in his fifth season with the Fighters.
The Fighters are currently in first place in the Pacific League standings with a 67-51-4 record, two games ahead of the Softbank Hawks.
PARIS (AP) - Losing the opening game of the Rugby World Cup to Argentina was bad enough. Then the French team had to handle the wrath of its critical media.
"Aie, aie, aie!", (Ouch, ouch, ouch!) read the front page of Le Parisien newspaper, with a photo of French flanker Remy Martin squashed up against four Argentina players during France's 17-12 loss that put in danger of first-round elimination.
France failed to produce any of its customary attacking rugby and made countless errors to let an aggressive Pumas side win for the fifth time in six meetings against Les Tricolores and take command of Group D.
"For the Blues, the party turns into a nightmare," Le Parisien in its main story alongside a photo of coach Bernard Laporte. "Scenario Catastrophique", (A catastrophic scenario) said French sports daily L'Equipe, with its front page showing a stern-faced Serge Betsen staring glumly into the distance, and No. 8 Imanol Harinordoquy with his hands on the top of his head as if surrendering.
L'Equipe's rugby supplement called it a "total failure" and spoke in unforgiving terms of the French having "no game, no leadership, no collective intelligence", alongside a photo of Martin being upended by a rugged tackle from Pumas center and kicker Felipe Contepomi.
"La Claque" (A slap in the face), was Le Figaro's blunt assessment.
