Jena Shows its Colors
six
2007-08-07 7:08 PM Yesterday I drove north about 4 hours and traveled back in time about 50 years to the small town of Jena, Louisiana- where one of the biggest civil rights struggles in recent memory is gradually gaining momentum. The story is such a classic one that it seems to register for many as some relic of a bygone era. One of the biggest challenges activists face is bringing home the message that this is real, urgent and very scary- for the families involved and for the American justice system as a whole.
Jena, population 3000, is mostly poor, 85% white, and to an outsider looks like a portrait of Anytown, USA. A small city center is home to the county courthouse, the DMV, a library, and a strip of shops, banks and churches. A little further out lie a couple of gas stations, a grocery store, and more churches. On the outskirts of town there’s a Wal-Mart. You get the sense that maybe with the exception of the Wal-Mart, the town hasn't changed a whole lot in the last century or so- which in the rural South can be a fairly sinister prospect.

Dubai Aerospace Enterprise acquires Standard Aero and Aviation from Carlyle Group
defenseindustrydaily
2007-08-04 10:51 PM Dubai Aerospace Enterprise (DAE) is part of an integrated aerospace cluster that is being assembled at Dubai World Central – the new 140 square kilometer airport and logistics city being constructed at Jebel Ali, Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates. The firm is made up of 6 divisions – DAE Airports, DAE Capital, DAE Engineering, DAE Manufacturing, DAE Services, and DAE University. Dubai has long since taken over from Lebanon as the business and financial center of the Middle East, however, and DAW sees growing regional and global opportunities in the Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) business. Which may explain the formal completion of DAE's $1.9 billion acquisition of aviation service providers Standard Aero and Landmark Aviation from The Carlyle Group… The operations of Landmark Aviation Airport Services and the sale process will be overseen by an independent board of trustees made up of former Secretary of Defense James Schlesinger, former Senator Bob Kerrey and former Pentagon Comptroller Dov Zakheim. The sale process will be conducted by Merrill Lynch.
