      The American Citizen Services Unit of U.S. Consulate General Tijuana provides a wide range of services to U.S. citizens visiting or residing in the Baja California region of Mexico. The ACS Unit issues passports, registers U.S. citizens born in Mexico, performs notarials, and provides assistance to U.S. citizens arrested in Mexico and to the families of Americans who pass away in our consular district of Baja.
      Ms. Schmidt will be covering an array of topics related to American expatriates or tourists and the role of the Consulate, including also the limitations of her office. Some of the topics to be covered include: services offered, emergency passport, medical assistance, what to do if arrested and how her office can help in the case of death.
      After a brief discussion by Ms. Schmidt the general audience will have an opportunity to ask her questions on topics related to rights of expatriates or tourists.
Come join in this very important community forum.

Free Talk: The New Science of Fat and Your Brain. Tomorrow Jennifer Flower, Ph.D will be talking about how overweight, diet, and hormones affect your thinking and therefore how to approach losing weight. This is NOT a talk about how to cut calories or how to convince yourself to lose weight, it's about how to make the best use of your experience to reach your goals, whatever they are. Thanks to the generosity of the Kellys, this talk will be held at their house on Looney Loop in bustling downtown Los Barriles. Join us tomorrow, Wednesday, February 22, at 1 pm. From 20 Noviembre near Smokey's turn East on Don Pepe. Then go right and then at the next block, right again. They are #50 with a sign on the gate saying Kelly, Pete & Sherry. They have a black gate with a cattle guard and their house is orange with a palapa roof. Due to space limitations, we are limiting attendance to the first 25 people who RSVP to Jennifer at alighton@me.com . Please do not come without RSVPing. See you then.
===============================================
