The owners of Pacific Eurotex Corp., a textile company in Los Angeles, were sentenced to federal prison after they pleaded guilty last year to federal money-laundering and tax-evasion charges. Four years ago, Pacific Eurotex and about 75 other companies were caught up in a vast raid by more than 1,000 federal and state agents who fanned out across the Los Angeles Fashion District to crack down on a long-running money-laundering scheme benefiting two drug cartels in Mexico. The total amount of cash and property seized was more than $140 million.

Heat Printing Technology in 2019
Terry: Josh, talk to us about new developments with GroupeSTAHL. What can you tell us about the latest and greatest from the company?
Erich: We recently read a blog post you did over at Ted Stahl’s blog wherein you had some poignant insights and predictions for the year to come; you discussed how there’s a real change in the market for mid-size decorators- can you talk about what you called the ‘big squeeze’ and tell us a little about how heat printing fits into this new landscape?
Terry: Heat printing seems to be expanding into new markets every day; where do you see heat printing going that you think might surprise the traditional decorator?
Erich: As much as we love getting into the new markets, existing heat printers always want to know what’s coming that they can take advantage of in their current channels; What do you see as the rising trends in heat printing materials and even decoration styles for the coming year?
Terry: Where would you say heat printing is headed a few years, or even many years from now? What sort of technologies and markets do you see as the natural expansion from where we are now?
Erich: On a slightly more immediate note, What can our listeners expect to see from Stahls in Long Beach? What should they be looking forward to?
Terry: Where can the listeners find more information and find you aside from the shows?
