MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - Gonzalo Gavira, a Mexican wizard with sound effects who worked on films like "The Exorcist," "The Towering Inferno" and "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly," has died aged 79, a colleague said on Tuesday.
Gavira died on Sunday in Mexico City from blood circulation problems, Mario Aguinaga, the director of Mexico's largest film studio, Estudios Churubusco, told Reuters.
"Gavira was a character in the film industry for his extraordinary inventiveness in creating sound effects," Aguinaga said.
"It was a real show to see him work in a studio creating sounds, he used to use garbage and other objects to create incidental sounds."
Gavira was part of a team that won an Oscar for best sound in the 1973 film "The Exorcist," directed by William Friedkin.
Gavira was credited with creating the sound of the demonically possessed 12-year-old girl Regan's head revolving completely on her body -- an excruciating effect the Mexican achieved by twisting a leather purse with credit cards inside.
He worked in at least five dozen films in Mexico and abroad, according to the Mexican Academy of Film and Arts.

opinion
I think its sad that he died. Its always bad to lose such a talented person in a field. Of course he was old, and that is what old people do, die that is. I have seen The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly and The Exorcist and I distinctly remember the exquisite sound effects from each of the movies.

"The Long Term Agricultural Effects of Economic and Land Reforms in
Chile, 1965-2000"
Chile was the first Latin American country to engage in significant and sustained economic reform combined with land reform, beginning in the mid-1960s. Land reform ended around 1978, but the economic reforms were redirected and intensified between 1974 and 1984. This talk will examine the impact that reforms of the agricultural sector have had over the long term, including relative prices, income growth and distribution, political impact, product mix, employment and technology.

Professor Jarvis conducts research on agricultural development and agricultural policy in less-developed countries. He has written on international trade issues, biotechnology and nutrition policy in developing countries. Jarvis has also written extensively on the historical development of Chile’s agricultural sector.
review
Chile was the first Latin American country to begin a large, and constant economic reform/land reform. It began in the mid 60’s. In 78 land reform ended, while through 74 to 84 economic reform was changed drastically, in the direction and intensity. There will be a talk to examine what the reforms might have done over a long term, this includes relative prices, income, growth and distribution, political impact, product mix, employment and technology. Professor Lovell S. “Tu” Jarvis is a professor in the Department of Agricultural and Resource Economics at UC Davis. He has strongly contributed to the reform plan.
opinion
I think it is wonderful that Chile is putting forth such and effort for land and economical reform. I believe the world can be a better place if every country were to try at least some form of land reform. I am curios as to know more of what will be taking place on this talk, and also to know of what Professor Jarvis mainly does.

Francisco Gil Dìaz, Mexican Secretary of Finance and Public Credit
On January 10, 2005, the Mexico Project hosted Francisco Gil Dìaz, Secretary of Finance and Public Credit. Secretary Gil Dìaz is recognized as one of the leading finance ministers in the hemisphere. He has served as Secretary of Finance and Public Credit since the start of the Fox Administration on December 1, 2000. Secretary Gil Dìaz outlined Mexico's economic performance during the first four years of the Fox administration, and detailed the Finance Ministry's policy agenda for strengthening Mexico's macroeconomic stability and encouraging growth in 2005. Secretary Gil Dìaz underscored the importance of structural reforms for Mexico's continued economic growth, noting that the reforms passed to date, while significant, are insufficient for achieving sustained growth. The Secretary specifically mentioned pending fiscal, telecommunications, and energy reforms. Secretary Gil Dìaz's visit coincided with an unfolding controversy with regard to the passage of Mexico's 2005 federal budget. The Secretary noted that Fox, who in November rejected a revised version of the budget passed by the opposition-dominated Chamber of Deputies, has in effect issued a veto over the budget. The constitutionality of Fox’s veto has been referred to the Supreme Court for adjudication. According to the Secretary, a constitutional amendment or an amendment to the federal budget law are possible resolutions.

I find it boring how frequently the same words were used over and over again in this article, it became agonizing to read, and wasn’t the most insightful thing I’ve ever read. However, I did manage to learn about what Gil Diaz has to say about the budget, and he appears to be strong willed about his ideas to better Mexico’s “microeconomic” stability.
