During frying processes, different odors are generated and released, some of them being unpleasant compounds generated by heating the oil used during these processes at too high a temperature or after too much time. A new system of sampling fumes has been developed based on solid phase extraction and analysis with GC-MS. Twenty-nine compounds present in the fumes of high oleic sunflower and olive oils and belonging to different chemical families have been identified. A sensory study has been made to evaluate the contribution of three chemical families to the characteristic flavor generated in the frying process.

My Father’s Shoes is, at its core, an anthology of short stories. The book is allegoric and the shoes are metaphoric. Unlike most anthologies, however, these stories are an amalgam of themselves. They integrate and coalesce. There is a rhythm and a cadence both in substance and in form. This book was initially written as a gift to my father. I wanted to share certain memories with him that were meaningful and lasting. I wanted him to know, from my perspective, just how important he was in my life. He never really understood the profound impact that he had on the lives of other people –especially his family. Because of that humility, or perhaps in honor of it, I wanted to him know that he...
Sin duda uno de los hechos socio-culturales más influyentes y relevantes de nuestros días se concreta en el fenómeno de la emigración. Por todo ello no es de extrañar que la emigración y el cambio cultural sean temas esterales de las ciencias llamadas sociales o humanas y que hayan ocupado ya un lugar preferente en el estudio realizado por las primeras escuelas de la antropología.

Conflict between the Roman Catholic Church and the State in Mexico became prominent soon after independence in 1821, and during the next three decades national and state governments made various attempts to reduce ecclesiastical influence in the social, economic and political life of the nation. Few of such efforts met with much success, and it was not until 1856 that a major reform was initiated. Legislation was issued which affected all spheres of clerical activity but the most vital and controversial aspect of the reform involved the measures adopted to dispossess the Church of its wealth. The extensive ecclesiastical holdings of urban and rural real estate and capital were nationalized and redistributed. Professor Bazant examines earlier attempts at nationalization, and describes in detail the implementations of the 1856 Lerdo Law and subsequent decrees. Using selected areas of the country, he traces the precise effects of the redistribution of Church property and capital, describing the terms of sale or transfer, the number of sales, the buyers, their nationality and occupation, and the total value of the amounts involved.
