Mission to Rio D.

       Well, the Minister of Latin American Affairs has sent a preliminary report back to the office and it appears that the situation in Colombia has similar traits to our own USA situation with the C.I.A. and Congress.  Who is watching whom?  That is the question on everybody's lips.  Sen. Dianne Feinstein(D-Ca) lambasted the CIA for snooping through the US Senate's computers looking for a "leak" that describes intrusions into the network, hoping to find a source of leaks.  All pols want to identify leakers.   Few expose themselves like Edward Snowden.'
      The Minister is off from Bogata to Rio, to look into similar matters in Pres. Dilma Rousseff's government as Brazil approaches the FIFA World Cup calender and the Summer Olympics.  Word on the street is: stay away from Brazil this summer.  Chaos is the operative word for conditions in the major venue cities throughout the country.
     Our minister will be in Rio for the rest of the week.  Then, he will return to Washington to adjust to the request from Sec. of State John Kerry to join the team at State.   No doubt our minister's reputation has gone beyond international boundaries and his many talents are now recognized by diplomats at the highest levels.  Kudos to him.
     It only serves to enhance the reputation of Tahoma. If he chooses to join the Team State, he will continue to be our voice in Washington, DC.
     A conference is scheduled in DC in 2 weeks to discuss his future plans and to answer questions regarding his role for Tahoma.  The weather should be spring like in all respects.
