El Temperamento y Personalidad de Nuestros Niños Por Marisol Muñoz-Kiehne, PhD anto los niños como los adultos tenemos distintos temperamentos, y es provechoso aprender a sacarle partido a cada personalidad. Nuestros niños vienen a este mundo con un estilo propio particular. El temperamento es la manera natural con que los seres humanos interactuamos con el entorno; es nuestra forma de ser y de desenvolvernos. El temperamento de cada cual es innato, probablemente heredado, e incluye la habilidad para adaptarnos, el estado de ánimo, la intensidad, el nivel de actividad, y la regularidad. Para conocer el temperamento de nuestros niños, observémoslos, escuchémoslos, y notemos sus tendencias a la hora de comer, dormir, y enfrentar personas y situaciones nuevas. Las personas somos más o menos regulares o irregulares en cuanto al hambre y al sueño, más o menos tranquilos o activos, más o menos calmados o irritables, más o menos cautelosos o arriesgados, más o menos solitarios o sociales, más o menos flexibles o rígidos al encarar novedad y cambios. El temperamento es una de las bases del comportamiento infantil. Por ejemplo, al ver un animal grande, un pequeño puede espantarse, llorar y esconderse. Otro puede mostrar interés, pero actuar con cautela. Y otro tal vez trate de jugar con el animal de inmediato, sin temor alguno.
T
El temperamento de muchos niños puede describirse como flexible, adaptable y relajado, mientras que otros de temperamento intenso y reactivo requieren mucha atención. Existe una gran variedad de lo que se considera normal. No importa la personalidad de nuestros niños, debemos respetar su temperamento para apoyar su crecimiento, su confianza en sí mismo y sus habilidades y talentos. Recomendaciones: 1. Observemos atentamente a cada uno de nuestros niños según crece, para conocerle mejor y descubrir sus inclinaciones y tendencias, intereses y preferencias. 2. Respetemos y hagamos respetar la personalidad natural de cada uno de nuestros niños. 3. Recordemos que no existen temperamentos superiores o inferiores, mas sí hay mejores o peores maneras de manejarlos. 4. Evitemos imponernos injustamente cuando nuestro propio temperamento es diferente al de nuestros niños. 5. Seamos particularmente pacientes y alentadores con nuestros niños reservados y tímidos. 6. Seamos especialmente claros y cuidadosos con nuestros niños osados y atrevidos. 7. Recordemos que para todo tem-
peramento aplican las 4 “C” de la crianza: calma, caricias, conciencia, y consistencia. 8. No olvidemos que, sea como sea el temperamento de nuestros niños, cada uno necesita las 4 “A”: apreciación, atención, apoyo y amor. 9. Procuremos orientación profesional de terapeutas y educadores cuando nuestro temperamento y el de nuestros niños entran en conflicto, interfiriendo con la crianza y el desarrollo de nuestra relación con ellos. 10.

Estimada doctora,
T
engo 18 años y me casé con mi novio que es ciudadano americano. Hemos tenido problemas y él regresó a la casa de sus padres. Tenemos la primera cita para la residencia pero él no quiere ir. ¿Debo presentarme sola y plantear el caso así o cual es su consejo?
More On Comprehensive Health Care Issues
Gracias por su ayuda, Lola Estimada Lola: Si su marido no quiere ir a la primera entrevista, usted tiene que ir sola. Probablemente, el oficial va a darle una seguimiento por un mes o más. Es muy raro que el gobierno vaya a aprobar su caso si su marido no va a la entrevista. Él es la persona quien esta pidiéindola y en un caso de matrimonio, ellos quieren saber que él no ha retirado su petición. Hay excepciones. Por ejemplo, si el patrocinador está en la cárcel o está muy enfermo, uno puede ir a la entrevista con prueba en la mano de las condiciones del patrocinador y puede tener la entrevista sola. O digamos que su marido le ha golpeado y ya no va a ir a la entrevista, usted puede ir con prueba del abuso (reporte de la policía o records médicos y fotos) y es posible que el oficial le va a antender. También, si está embarazada o estaba embarazada ellos deben tener la entrevista. De todos modos debe ir preparado con sus documentos originales y los que prueban la validez del matrimonio. Si hay problemas en el matrimonio, yo digo a mis clientes que no deben mentir. Va a estar bajo juramento y es probable que el oficial va a darse cuenta que los dos viven en lugares diferentes. La ley dice que todo depende de su intención cuando se casaron. Vivir aparte ahora no quiere decir que no se casaron por buenas razones. El gobierno quiere ver que ustedes están mezclando su dinero, que tienen los dos nombres en sus cuentas y que hicieron los impuestos juntos. Sin embargo, la regla es para la primera entrevista, la pareja tiene que ir juntos. Yo siempre digo a mis clientes que ellos deben hacer todo lo posible para obtener la cooperación de su marido o esposa. Los necesitan, punto y aparte. Buena suerte. Beverly Black, Esq. es abogada de las leyes migratorias y familiares en Filadelfia, PA con más de veinte años de experiencia. Ella surgiere que usted busque consejo legal porque cada caso es diferente.El consejo en este artículo es información general y no debe ser considerado consejo legal.

he debates and discussions about comprehensive health care legislation have now shifted from Washington, D.C. to the community districts where town hall meetings are being held. Allegedly the Republicans are trying to turn town hall meetings to political issues and fear, which confuse matters. Remember that Republicans did nothing about comprehensive health care legislation during the Bush Administration (2000 to 2008) where Republicans controlled the White House, the Senate and the House of Representatives. A very good point was made by James Mattis (San Jose Mercury News, letter to editor, August 8, 2009) who said “I think all of the people terrified of a socialist governmentrun health reform plan should consider one question: Do you have health insurance now? Are you sure? I thought I did. Paid up three months worth in advance just to be extra careful. Called my company up in mid-July to confirm this fact. I found out last week that my medical insurance had been retroactively cancelled July first. The media spouts numbers of 50 million uninsured. The truth is that if insurance companies can retroactively cancel your insurance, then nobody can honestly state they have insurance. Opponents often point to the ‘Massachusetts Model’ as something to avoid because of its failure. Nothing could be more untruthful and less factual. According to the New York Times (November 9, 2009), “The Massachu-

setts Taxpayers Association, a non-partisan research group, concluded that the cost of achieving near universal coverage has been relatively modest and well within the early projections of how much the state would have to spend to implement reforms.” This program, now three years old, provides medical insurance coverage to 97% of all Massachusetts residents. This is by far the highest coverage in the nation achieved without huge increases in spending. Of great concern to many is the amount of misinformation being presented by special interests that are well funded by those who oppose this reform legislation. Major medical insurance companies are working behind the scenes and preparing to profit from the form of legislation they desire. TV ads tend to misinform and dip into the deep well of public frustration and anger, which hinders acquisition of accurate information. It is increasingly difficult to separate fact from a well-funded propaganda campaign. The Obama Administration is trying to deliver on a campaign pledge to pass a comprehensive health bill which a) reduces cost rise for medical services, b) is accessible and affordable, and c) provides comprehensive health insurance coverage to almost all. The proposed legislation provides for both the private insurance option (an individual buys it) and the public option that provides for everyone, especially children and extends the safety net. This is the ‘competition’ the private
insurers do not want because it forces them to contain costs and compete with each other and the public program. Note that Medicare and Medicaid are well operated public programs whose overhead expenses are 3% or so, and not the estimated 25% of the private sector. That alone is enormous cost saving. The insurers are motivated by profit margins and do not focus on comprehensive services to all at lowest delivery costs. Finally, no insurance denials based on prior medical conditions are permitted. The best information on all options was presented by the Congressional Office of the Budget (CBO) last December 2008 in a very factual non-partisan manner. The CBO does not endorse any proposed legislation. It simply lays out the pros and cons, which is useful in a time when non-partisan presentations are so hard to find. The Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget calls the December CBO report “a powerful tool for policy makers looking to rein in wasteful government spending, attack the federal deficit and put America on a sustainable path.” Proposed legislation comes from two Senate Committees and at least three House committees. Each will produce a bill that goes to the House-Senate Conference Committee, which will produce the final version. That bill goes to President Obama for his signature. This is one law will affect all of us, so be certain to give your opinion to your senators and representatives.

Students Receive Scholarships By Osvaldo Castillo - El Observador
T
he Student Advocates for Higher Education organization (SAHE) held its Second Annual SAHE Scholarship Ceremony on Friday, August 7, at Third Street Community Center in San Jose. Six local immigrant and community college students received the scholarships. “These students had to overcome obstacles,” said SAHE Scholarship Committee Chair Alba Cardenas. “We are rewarding them for their hard work and determination.” Angelica Mendoza, Gladys Garcia, Jose Zopiyatle, Kimberly Martinez, and Ruben Casas all received scholar-
ships to attend San Jose State University. “Being recognized for my hard work means a lot to me,” said Ruben Casas. “This scholarship will help me achieve my goals.” Patricia Cortez also received a scholarship. She will be attending National Hispanic University. “This scholarship means more because it comes from students ourselves,” Cortez said. “At times it can get difficult working against the odds of being a minority, but scholarships like these remind me that it is important to keep working hard.” The SAHE Scholarship Committee, which is made up of Alba Cardenas, Cesar Juarez, Christian Marrufo,
Delia Najera, Luis Rios, Mari Plancarte, Margarita Medina, and Ray Sullivan, interviewed each student prior to awarding the scholarships. “Being part of the SAHE committee meant that we had to have fundraisers and other events to raise money for the scholarships,” Cardenas said. “We all worked very hard to make this happen.” “The reason why I joined this committee is to continue to inspire people so that they will follow their dreams and passions,” added Cesar Juarez. “The students who received these scholarships are the ideal students because not only do they do well in school, but they all help out in the community.” SAHE was founded in the fall of 2004 at San Jose State University by a group of documented and undocumented students. SAHE works to promote higher education among immigrant students regardless of legal status, through activism, advocacy, community involvement, peer support, and leadership development.

DEWALT everal issues have been brought to the forefront during these difficult times. One of these issues is affordable housing. On Tuesday, August 11, members from the CHAM Deliverance Ministry and the Affordable Housing Network of Santa Clara County mailed over 1,400 letters to President Obama, calling on him to address the nation’s housing and homelessness crisis. The letters contain personal stories as well as pictures. “Now is the time to fix the housing issue,” said Sandy Perry of CHAM Ministry. “Too many people are having their houses foreclosed.” Most of the letters were written by people who were homeless, nearly homeless, formerly homeless, or whose homes had been foreclosed. People of conscience also wrote letters. “We have been gathering the letters from people since March of this year,” Perry said. The letters call for 200,000 new housing choice vouchers every year for ten years, and capitalization of the National Affordable Housing Trust Fund sufficient to produce 1.5 million units of housing in ten years. Since February, Congress and the administration have proposed creating only 150,000 of the two million vouchers needed, and providing only $1 billion of the $150 billion needed to fully fund the National Affordable Housing Trust Fund. “The programs that have been adapted have not been effective,” Perry said. “The government has given billions to Wall Street, why can’t they give the money to ordinary Americans. They’re the ones that really need the money.” For more information visit http://housingisahumanright.blogspot.com.

Lofgren Promises to Work for Immigration Reform By Osvaldo Castillo - El Observador
R
epresentative Zoe Lofgren (D-CA) met with local immigration reform supporters on August 6, to reassure them of her commitment to just and humane immigration reform. The People Acting in Community Together organization (PACT) and the Services, Immigration Rights and Education Network (SIREN) put the event together. It was held at St. Patrick Cathedral in San Jose. “Now is the time for immigration reform,”
said Fr. Jon Pedigo of the Catholic Campaign for Immigration Reform at the beginning of the event. “The economy and justice is in crisis in our country. Immigration reform will solve this.” Lofgren began by telling a story about her grandfather who was an immigrant. “Now I’m here fighting for immigration rights,” Lofgren said. Lofgren continued by saying that immigration is central to this country. “Immigrants are optimistic, risk takers and hard working, and that is what America is,” Lof-
gren said. She also said that she and other representatives and senators who support immigration reform met with President Barack Obama to discuss the issue. “He told us that he would personally be involved with immigration reform and that it would come by the end of the year or by early next year.” Lofgren pledged to use her leadership so that the final Comprehensive Immigration Reform bill includes: a manageable solution to deal with the huge backlog of families who are waiting to be reunited, but unable to obtain entry visas for close relatives; a fast and reasonable pathway for otherwise law-abiding undocumented people to obtain legal status; to find a way for innocent children who were brought here by their parents and have gone through school to gain legal resident status; and to protect workers’ and human
rights. She also vowed to keep working with President Obama and Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi; and to continuing meeting with the community to update them on the progress that is being made in Washington D.C. regarding the immigration issue. PACT provides leadership training and experience to community members of many different ethnic, religious, and socio-economic backgrounds. Through PACT, people work together to solve the most pervasive social problems of our day, including: failing public schools, housing that is too expensive for thousands of working families, lack of affordable health care, and unsafe neighborhoods and poor services.

Del campo a tu mesa
de San José se encuentran estos campos donde los populares freseros trabajan de madrugada, mañana y tarde. Expuestos al peligro No solo las condiciones físicas y salariales maltratan a los campesinos. En los campos se usan pesticidas especialmente en las fresas y muchos de ellos no lo saben. Se les echa pesticidas en los campos y como muchos de ellos viven a lado de ellos para ahorrarse el gas y el transporte son también rociados con estos liquidos venenosos. Tanto los campesinos y las familias reciben esta dosis cada vez que hay cosecha. “Los hombres y mujeres no saben que hay pesticidas en estos campos. Muchos de ellos tienen nauseas, mareos, dolores de cabeza, síntomas de una intoxicación “ explica la Dra. Ann López, Especialista en Medio Ambiental y autora del libro “El Diario del Campesino”. Precios de mercado El costo de las fresas en cualquier supermercado es de $3.75 la cajita de 14 fresas medianas. ¿sabe cuánto le pagan a los freseros por recoger en cuclillas una caja de fresas que contienen 90 a 120 unidades?. Ellos reciben $1.70 por recogerlas, una ganga para los ranchos que tienen que pagar muy poco por la mano de obra y venderlo a un gran precio, negocio sabroso ¿verdad?. En julio de 2006 EO reportó en un artículo las condiciones paupérrimas de los campesinos. Desde aquel entonces y en su primera visita las cosas no han cambiado. Los años pasan y las condiciones físicas de los campesinos se deteriora aunque ellos no lo noten. Desde hace tres años mantienen el mismo salario, sueldo mínimo o el pago por caja grande a $1.70, algo que les demora 45 a 55 minutos en seleccionar. Δ
La historia de los ricos y los pobres Por Rosario Vital El Observador ¿Sabía usted que las fresas que degustamos en nuestras mesas ya sea en ensaladas de fruta, acompañados con pancakes, bañadas con chocolate derretido o decorando tu pastel de tres leches son llevadas con mucho esfuerzo, sudor y dolores físicos de los campesinos?. Las fresas no se cultivan, ni se cosechan y menos se recojen solas. El elemento humano es importante en estas fases del cultivo. La parte humana está compuesto por campesinos, muchos de ellos sin documentos que son pagados con sueldos mínimos y explotados con largas jornadas de trabajo. El campesino trabaja un promedio de 13 horas, bajo el sol, sin seguro médico y con pagos que no alcanzan ni para comer las propias fresas que se llevan a los mercados. Pizcar la fresas “Pizcar” no es tan fácil como parece, trabajar en cuclillas por 13 horas y sin parar es agotador. Los campesinos tienen que colectar la mayor cantidad de “buenas” fresas porque cuanto más te paguen, más oportunidad para llenar tu alcancía y darle de comer a los tuyos. El Observador visitó los campos Gizdich y Rodriguez de cultivo de fresa localizados en Watsonville. A casi un hora de distancia y a 53 millas

Union Rocker Presents... By Cinthia Rodriguez - El Observador
G
Union Rocker Presenta... By Cinthia Rodriguez - El Observador garra tus audífonos y tu laptop, jala una silla y relájate porque “El Universo del Rock” empezará su transmisión por Union Rocker Radio. Cada vez más y más radios transmiten el audio en vivo via internet/ Union Rocker decidió salir al aire. La única cosa que los separa de la radio comercial es la experiencia dada a su audiencia. La interacción entre el presentador y público va más allá de las llamadas que solicitan canciones . El público puede poner la cara y la voz que está escuchando en sus audífonos. El equipo requerido es una mezcla de micrófonos, audífonos, computadoras, internet y no podemos olvidar las camaras web. Al presentador lo puedes observar en plena acción. Union Rocker fue fundada por Ricardo “Rocky” Rivas al igual que Union Rocker TV para proveer una salida alterna para todas aquellas personas olvidadas por la radio y medios comerciales. El nombre simplemente transmite el mensaje de querer juntar a todos en el Área de la Bahía y es un programa bilingüe (ingles-español),dijo Rivas. La radio va más allá de unir unicamente a la gente del Área de la Bahia, su esfuerzo une a mucho gente alrededor del mundo. El mundo de rock está expuesto a la cara de los latinos. En el 2003 los miembros de Union Rocker tuvieron como misión hacer que las banda locales de el Área de la Bahia sean más conocidas. Union Rocker también se enfoca en conseguir entrevistas con bandas conocidas para que luego sean trans-
A
mitidas por el canal comunitario de la ciudad de San Jose y Campbell por el canal 15 proporcionado por Crea TV. Han construido su credibilidad con la creación de una página web, patrocinando eventos a Rivas, su equipo tambien ha contribuido a una revista local. Para el 2009 la página web y el programa de televisión empezaron a acumular seguidores lo cual evolucionó en la estación de radio.El primer programa de radio fue el 1ero de Mayo. Una de las metas de la radio es pasar la voz de que hay más que Juanes, Shakira, Jaguares y Maná. La gente tiene que saber que existen más géneros y esperamos que las bandas sepan que tienen alguien con quien contar dijo Rivas. El proyecto lleva 6 años de madurez pero la radio está en su tercer mes con una audiencia que crece y crece. Hay 12 conductores de radio no remunerados que están haciendo que la música refleje sus personalidades. La nueva generación de latinos en el Área de la Bahía están expuestos a la nueva y vieja música. Todo tipo de música en inglés como en español, la cual contiene Indie, Techno, Electrónica, Electro-cumbia, Punk , Ska, Reggea y muchos más; todo en una misma estación radial que tiene programación variada todos los dias con diferentes presentadores pero con el mismo objetivo : exponer a los artistas locales y extranjeros. El programa radial puede ser visto en www.justin.tv/rockertv con la esperanza de algún dia convertirse en una radio comercial. Δ
rab some headphones and a laptop or pull up a chair and get comfortable in front of your monitor, “El Universo del Rock,” broadcasted by Union Rocker Radio is about to begin. As more and more radios are streaming live audio on the Internet, Union Rocker Radio took that well into account when they decided to go on the air. The one thing that sets them apart from commercial radio is the experience given to their audience. The interaction between listener and host goes beyond calling the request line. The viewer can actually put a face on the voice they hear through the headphones. The equipment includes the typical mixer, microphones, headphones, computers, Internet, and you can’t forget the web cams. The host can be seen live in action. Ricardo “Rocky” Rivas, founder of Union Rocker TV, created Union Rocker Radio in an attempt to create an outlet for those let down by mainstream media.“The name simply conveys a message of wanting to unite everybody in the Bay Area and can be understood by both Spanish and English speakers,” Rivas said. The radio goes beyond uniting people in the Bay Area, broadcasting online allows Union Rocker Radio to spread its message to people all across the globe. A first impression is important to many people, and this case is no different. Finally, the world can be exposed to another side of Latinos, the rocker side of them. In 2003, the members of Union Rocker made it their mission to make local bands from the Bay Area better known. Union Rocker has also pursued well-known bands and has been granted interviews to later be broadcasted on the San Jose community channel 15, provided by CreaTV. They built up their credibility with the creation of a website, sponsoring events and Rivas’contribution to a local magazine. By 2009, the TV show and the website started to accumulate enough followers that a radio station evolved. The first independent show aired on May 1st. “One of the main goals of the radio is to spread the word that there’s more than Juanes, Shakira, Jaguares, and Mana. People should be aware that other genres do exist and hopefully bands will be encouraged in knowing that they have someone to approach,” Rivas said. Union Rocker is a mature 6-year-old project, but the radio is merely on its third month with its growing audience. There are 12 non-paid hosts that are allowed to let music reflect their personality. The new generation of Latinos in the Bay Area is exposed to new and old music. All types of music in English and Spanish are played. Union Rocker provides alternative genres of Spanish music, that include, Indie, Techno, Electronic, Electro-Cumbia, Punk, Ska, Reggae and many more; all in one radio station that has daily shows with different hosts, but with the same objective: to expose local and foreign artists. The shows can be heard and viewed on www.justin.tv/unionrockertv with the hopes to further challenge commercial radio.

Community Calls for Healthcare Reform By Osvaldo Castillo - El Observador
W
ith signs reading “No Recess for Health Reform,” and “Our Community Supports Health Reform,” local community members, activists and representatives gathered in front of Representative Zoe Lofgren’s (D-CA) office in San Jose to express their concern regarding the healthcare crisis in the United States. “Our message is simple. Congress should have no recess for healthcare reform,” said Jo Stein of the Congregation Shir Hadash. “Now is the time to pass comprehensive health care reform.” The community members are asking that insurance companies be prohibited from discriminating against you if you get sick. If people change jobs or lose their jobs, they will not have to worry about losing their health coverage. Small business owners will get tax
credits to buy health coverage for their employees. Finally, the community members are asking that the rising cost of healthcare be controlled. “People are scared that if they lose their jobs they will not be able to pay for health insurance,” Stein said. Everyday, more Californians, including Silicon Valley’s middle class and affluent families are losing health coverage due to the state’s budget crisis, skyrocketing unemployment, and increasing costs of insurance. Children are being bumped off health programs as the budget is cut again and again. Between January 2008 and January 2009, it is estimated that 637,300 Californian workers and their families joined the ranks of the uninsured because of the state’s four percent increase in unemployment.

“Que nos traten como reinasâ€?: Jenni Rivera Por David Fernandez Hummel ĂŠxico, Ago. (Notimex).- La cantautora de banda Jenni Rivera, rechaza cualquier prĂĄctica de feminismo que la lleve a radicalismos como lo han hecho los hombres a travĂŠs del machismo, mĂĄs bien se pronuncia a favor del equilibrio, respeto y acuerdos entre ambosgĂŠneros. “Si queremos que los hombres nos traten como reinas, hay que tratarlos como reyes, porque no por interpretar temas de corte feminista, quiere decir que lo soy; canto letras que no necesariamente van con mi forma de vida, sin embargo, con muchas canciones se identifican miles de fanĂĄticas que sĂ practican ese pensamientoâ€?, explicĂł.

No importa cĂłmo cantan, la desafinaciĂłn se arregla y se esconde entre la trompa, el bajo, el trombĂłn y bombo de esta popular banda “Los Pikadientesâ€?. Aunque no lo crean,la banda ha sido nominada a los premios Grammy, a Premios Lo Nuestro y Billboard Latino. Apenas empiezan en este mundo farĂĄndulero los Pikadientes de Caborca ya tienen sus seguidores, y claro no por sus voces.

Building on past successes, the ALMA Awards will bring a new approach to this year’s show.

¿Nos quieren decir algo los cometas? Por Mario Jiménez Castillo El Observador
E
n la antigüedad la aparición de los cometas causaba gran revuelo y temor en la población. Existía todo tipo de leyendas y profecías en su entorno. Incluso se cree que fue un cometa, lo que hoy conocemos como la “estrella de Belén”. El pionero en el estudio de los cometas fue Edmund Halley, quién descubrió que el cometa de 1531, 1607 y 1682, era el mismo. Y predijo además que ese mismo cometa aparecería nuevamente en 1758. Por ello el Cometa Halley, lleva su nombre en honor a él. Desde épocas remotas los cometas han causado admiración, misterio y hasta miedo en los habitantes de la tierra, porque cuando un cometa aparecía, ocurrían coincidencialmente, sucesos políticos o desastres naturales que afectaban a las masas. Según los últimos avances científicos, se cree que fue el choque de un cometa con la tierra, el impacto que provocó la desaparición de los dinosaurios. La aparición de un cometa no se puede presagiar a la ligera. Existe la probabilidad que un cometa

choque con nuestro planeta cada 50 ó 60 millones de años. Los cometas son fragmentos que quedaron de la formación del sistema solar. Aunque es muy poco probable que un cometa se acerque a la tierra, esto pudiera ocurrir, de ello existen ejemplos palpables. Los cráteres de la luna son huecos enormes dejados por el impacto de cometas. En 1994 un enorme cometa chocó con el planeta Júpiter, causando estragos en la superficie del planeta. Los cometas suelen llegar a medir de 5 a 100 o más millas de diámetro, y viajan a una distancia de 10 millas por segundo. La cola del cometa es más larga. La cola del gran cometa de 1811 llegó a medir 1 millón de millas de largo. Entre las profecías que se han hecho para el 2012, existe una asociada a “Nostradamus” que augura la aparición de un enorme cometa que pudiera acercarse peligrosamente a la tierra. Nadie sabe lo que sucederá, ni siquiera los astrónomos de la NASA, ya que los cometas son impredescibles y pueden aparecer de un momento a otro. ¿Estaremos a salvo?
