Illegal Gringo Immigration
Mexico has taken steps to allow the increasing number of foreigners who flood into the country each year, whether legally or illegally, to apply for citizenship.
Most of Mexico’s immigrants come from Central America, but at least one million of them arrive from United States.
Al Jazeera’s Franc Contreras reports from the central Mexican town of San Miguel de Allende, where foreigners say they appreciate a simpler kind of life.

We are pleased to invite you to celebrate our 11th anniversary and our Traditional Day of the Dead event this Friday 30 October on the CECyTEJ campus.
The festive atmosphere will include more than 40 traditional altars and the presentation of Grupo Folklorico de CECyTEJ Vallarta conducted by maestro Juan Antonio Salcedo Padilla. A local rock band will later perform.
At 6 pm, there will be a parade to and from the campus to the Pitillal plaza and at 7 pm, the festivities begin at the campus, with the musical and cultural performances followed by the awarding of the winners of the altar contest.
Black attire is suggested.
If you have the time, there are over 350 photos of last year’s celebration on the http://cecytejpvr.spaces.live.com website gallery. The spirit of Day of the Dead is not always quite what outsiders believe.
