...with Latin American generals, and was convinced their days of overthrowing governments was over. If the Pentagon was lucky, it might even be able to unload some of its older model F-16s south of the border and use the proceeds to restock its air wings with newer versions of the Falcon. Industry executives and Perry aides began publicly plugging the idea of lifting the restrictions: the countries of Latin America save for Cuba were now democratic, their economies were rebounding, and the jets their air forces flew in many cases were 1950s vintage, went the spiel.

Uhry juggles a lot of elements with no evident strain: creating a believable family that seems both quirky and emblematic; exploring issues of Jewish self-hatred; giving hints of The Glass Menagerie and then taking...
...technology is able to drastically boost performance primarily because MMX has 57 new instruction sets. (CS 50 flashbacks anyone?) This allows the processor to handle more graphic-intensive tasks simultaneaously.
