Changes in the Jurgen Klinsmann era
PHILADELPHIA -- The Jurgen Klinsmann era is underway at a head-spinning pace, careening from hiring announcement to first result -- a 1-1 draw against Mexico on Wednesday night -- in less than two weeks. With his first friendly behind him, we figured now would be a good time for a deep breath and an examination of some U.S. national team issues that will crop up in the coming weeks by playing an old ESPN standard, What to Watch For.
Who gets the call?While there was plenty of talk about long-term structural issues the last two weeks, and plenty of smiles and "positive energy" coming off Klinsmann's debut, the new coach sounded like he'll be all business and no patience for the next training camp, which opens Aug. 28 in Carson, Calif., ahead of a Sept. 2 friendly against Costa Rica and a Sept. 6 match versus Belgium in Brussels. Klinsmann said Wednesday he expects everybody he selects for the double fixture to attend the entire camp. That includes his European players, who will have to make a flight across a minimum of eight time zones -- and back -- for the camp and the two matches. "Certainly our goal is to have them always with us, no exceptions," Klinsmann said after Wednesday's match.

Articles 20VN | Three Ways to Manufacture in Mexico ...
Entrepreneurs and managers of manufacturing companies are facing ever increasing labor and insurance costs, increasing government regulations, and increasing energy prices, moving at least some of the labor offshore is looking better and better. While there are other low-cost options, Mexico should be first in the short list of possible places to move business activities to reduce costs while maintaining control of the operation for a number of important reasons. First, by moving to Mexico you immediately cut your labor costs in half. While you may be able to cut it even more by moving elsewhere, like China, carefully consider the disadvantages of moving it to places where their control is so severely curbed.
First, Mexico is close to the US offering substantial shipping and travel, and even time zone advantages. In today's business environment, the necessity to be increasingly agile is of paramount importance. Your product spending weeks or more tied up in a container, at sea, can introduce problems that having it spending a few days in a truck does not. What happens when your customer discovers a defect and you're responsible for sorting or making new certified material? It's expensive if you have to fly certified material in from China or sort or reject an entire container-load of material. From Mexico, it's really no different than if you have a remote manufacturing location in the US.
One of the biggest miscalculations that Western business people make when dealing with Asian cultures is the huge culture gap. In China, when an agreement is struck, that's when the negotiations begin, not end. Business practices in Asia are completely foreign to most Westerners, and a source for considerable frustration. In China half-completed factories and unfinished business deals are scattered like confetti at a New York ticker tape parade. Conversely, in Mexico, when you strike a deal, you can rest assured the deal is made. Laws and business practices, while slightly different than the US and European counterparts, are far more alike than they differ.
