n May 16, the Alma Action Committee held a community meeting to ur ge the city of San Jose to keep the Alma Center open. The center has been fighting to stay open after two consecutive years of uncertainty.

For over 40 years the Alma Center has thrived on volunteers who make the center a second home for most of its senior population and its youth. The center is said to bring joy and a sense of community to the Washington Neighborhood.

“I hav e a good time at the center ,” said Teodoro Solis. “I also deserve a safe place fo r a meal, but I r eally deserve a community center I can be proud of.”

The San Jose P arks, Recreation and Neighborhood Services Department is proposing the re-use or closure of the center to offset the city’s budget deficit.

The center asked the City council and Mayor Reed to support the Silicon Valley Council of Nonprofits’ proposal to allocate an additional $400,000 for two y ear services particularly for

seniors.

During a research process done by the Alma Action Committee, the members attended and reviewed a senior nutrition program and task force meetings; spoke with representatives of the Office of Aging, County of Santa Clar a, and spoke with City councilmembers and the Vice Mayor of San Jose.

“As y ou c ontinue t o f ight, w e’ll f ight w ith you,” said councilmember Sam Liccardo.

Each and every day the v olunteers work to preserve and strengthen the center that keeps

over 100 youths off the str eets. The center also provides a hot meal daily to an av erage of 200 seniors who are local homeowners, retired workers, local allies, and community leaders.

For many, the lunch provided by the center is the seniors only meal of the day. Some divide the lunch into two portions to avoid hunger in the evening hours.

For others, especially those living alone, the center provides much needed socialization activities like bingo, loteria, and field trips.

“When my husband died I thought that was it for me, but when I started going to center I realized I had to enjo y life,” said Angela Mor eno.

“The people are beautiful and I don’t feel alone.”

For most, the center fills a void that deceased spouses may leave. While to others, it provides a day of purpose or a safe place to do homework.

Based u pon t heir s tudy, t he c enter i s i n search of stability with two main proposals. At this time they are requesting that the center hire one full time staff member and request a coordinated evaluation.

As a result of the meeting, Vice Mayor Madison Nguyen made it clear that the center will remain open in the next fis cal y ear. She will continue to work on a budget that keeps the center open which signifies a major leap towards the center’s stability. ∆

César se ha conv ertido en una de las voces nacionales del movimiento a favor del DREAM Act que lo legalizaría a él y a otros miles que por el momento piden al menos ser amparados de la deportación en tanto se define la suerte de proyecto de legalización de jóvenes que completen estudios universitarios o ingresen en el servicio militar.

La medida se presentó ante el Congreso, una vez más, la semana pasada.César, traído por sus padres desde México a los cinco años de edad, se crió en Brooklyn, Nueva York, y se graduó de la misma secundaria que el presidente d el s ubcomité d e I nmigración d el Senado, Charles Schu mer, senador demócrata de Nueva York.

“Pero aunque pase el bar exam no va a significar nada porque no me pueden dar la licencia para ejercer como abogado por que no tengo documentos”, dice César.

El pr esidente Bar ack Obama, también abogado, ha reiterado que algunos quisieran que pasara por alto al Congreso, pero lo que se le está solicitando es que emplee su poder ejecutivo par a fr enar las depor taciones de estos jóvenes en tanto se define el futuro del DREAM Act o de la reforma migratoria integral.

Como a bogado, C ésar o pina q ue l a r espuesta de Obama “es una excusa política.

Este recién egresado abogado espera que mientras el DREAM Act se concreta, el presidente use su autoridad ejecutiv a par a amparar a estos futuros profesionales de la deportación en tanto se les abre el camino para c ontribuir l ibremente a l b ienestar económico, la competitividad y el progreso de nuestro país.

n Monday, May 16, 2011, I r eceived a c all f rom a l ady w ho identified herself and then took steps to verify that I was ‘Hilbert Morales”, a r egistered v oter. What follo wed was a very carefully worded request to pledge ‘a substantial contribution’ to ensure the reelection of President Obama. The commentary I am about to provide you also applies to those of y ou who r eceive phone solicitations for donations to the election of any candidate.

I chose to engage the soliciting party in a conversation that brought up the following issues. I suggest that you do the same because L atino c ontributors m ust s tate what needs to be done for Latino communities, and request that your personal priorities be relayed up to their supervisors.

In effect, what is being suggested is to not commit to any contribution without first expressing those concerns which ar e of high priority to you and your community.

For e xample, The D REAM l egislation needs to pass this y ear to enable Latino undocumented students, brought here by migrating parents as ‘b abes in arms’, to continue their education and pr eparation to become qualified professional citizens.

My expressed concerns w ere the following: First, I was disappointed that no use w as m ade o f t he ‘ Unsecured M iniGrant Loans” concept at all. What was approved ab out one y ear ago was ‘ small business lo ans’ thr ough banks whose loans were guaranteed by the Small Business Administration, Department of Commerce. Such SBA loans r equired that the firm show a profit during the past two or three fiscal years. As a consequence of the very high unemployment rate in Hispanic communities, many Hispanic o wned and operated small businesses could not demonstrate pr ofitability. They could demonstrate the fact that their survival as a business occurred. The outcome was not receiving any SBA insured loan because of the inability to demonstr ate profitabillity.

What is not being consider ed in curr ent public policy is the fact that it is in small entrepreneurial businesses that innovation occurs and new jobs are created.

A second concern was, that while Wall Street financial groups and the auto industry r eceived ‘bail-out funds’, nothing of that sort was provided to the small busi-

ness community. This is very important to state because those large ‘bail-out funds’ never trickled down to our community at all. That money would have trickled up had small businesses received ‘unsecured mini grants’ because additional emplo yees would be spending their salaries making the us ual a nd c ustomary p ayments fo r mortgages, food, clothing, educations, etc.

Today, the banking industry is still not willing to provide credit to small businesses.

A third concern is the need for the Office of Consumer Affairs at the White House to assertively modify mortgages. As contracts to ‘buy a home’, mortgages currently protect the banks, brokers, and real estate agents while pr oviding no contingency provisions which enable the ‘home buyer’ to make r equired tr ansitional adjustments. F or example, if the family’ s monthly income falls thr ough no fault of the employed family members, the home buyer needs to be able to continue to service the mor tgage by payments of inter est only (without reduction of principal owed) to enable the family to stay in their homes.

And if a large amount of ‘home equity’ has been built up, to use that to enable staying ‘in their home’. Currently, home purchasers have no right to ‘mortgage modification or renegotiation’. It is unr easonable to project a reliable income over a 15 or 30 y ear mortgage agr eement these days. If the wage earner loses emplo yment because the job was outsourced overseas, at least two years needs to be provided for re-training and re-employment. These adjustment contingencies simply do not exist in current mor tgages with the outcome that some home-owners lost their ‘life-savings’ through no fault of their own.

My point i s that Latinos need not pledge any contribution without first saying what their personal concerns and pri orities are today. These are having a high quality education and training for our children; jobs and a better economy; and some evidence that a career ladder is available to us all. Government and financial institutions have no problem telling us what their terms ar e. Latinos need to pr actice telling the establishment what their per sonal and community priorities and concerns are. So do communicate assertively.

Pledge your political campaign contributions as you may, but state as par t of that pledge your priorities and conditions.∆

an Diego, (Notimex).- La legislatura de California enviĂł al gobernador Jerry Brown una pr opuesta de ley aprobada par a faci litar la af iliaciĂłn de los campesinos a un sindicato.

La por tavoz de la bancada latina, Xochitl Arellano, confirmĂł que la iniciativa SB104, del presidente del senado estatal, Darrell Steinberg, solo espera que el gobernador la refrende.

Steinberg informĂł que su pr opuesta se ins pirĂł en una adolescente mexicana embarazada, quien pereciĂł por cansancio mientras trabajaba en un viĂąedo del Valle de San JoaquĂ­n, en la regiĂłn central de California, en mayo de 2008, MarĂ­a Isabel VĂĄsquez JimĂŠnez.

El senador dijo que si la joven originaria del estado de Oaxaca hubiera estado sindicalizada, los capataces no la habrĂ­an obligado a trabajar sin descanso y sin agua bajo un ambiente de 33 grados centĂ­grados.

La propuesta fue aprobada por mayorĂ­a de votos y ya habĂ­a tenido aprobaciĂłn en el senado estatal.

La SB104 permite que los campesinos decidan en votaciĂłn si se afilian a un sindicato, y deja que por primera vez en California la elecciĂłn se lleve a cabo sin que los capataces vean las boletas.

Steinberg comentĂł que hasta ahora las elecciones para sindicalizaciĂłn terminan en amenazas y coer ciones de capataces y agroindustriales, que atentan con despedir a trabajadores, a sus familiares e incluso con deportar a campesinos si optan por afiliarse a sindicatos.

El sindicato UniĂłn de Trabajadores AgrĂ­colas (UFW) que fundĂł el extinto dirigente CĂŠsar ChĂĄvez cabildeĂł en favor de la ley en el estado de California.

Por su parte, la AsociaciĂłn de Agroindustriales del Oeste estadounidense expr esĂł su oposiciĂłn a l a p ropuesta d e S teinberg y co mentĂł en comunicado que la SB104 “no se refiere a beneficiar a los campesinos, sino a los sindicatosâ€?.

Bautizaron barco de Guerra con nombre de CĂŠsar ChĂĄvez

S

an Diego (Notimex).- El secr etario de Marina de Estados Unidos, Ray Mabus, bautizĂł un bar co de guerr a con el nombre de Cesar Chavez, en un acto que se celebrĂł en el ba rrio latino Logan de San Diego, donde estĂĄ la armadora de la nave.

Al solemne evento asistieron los familiares del extinto dirigente campesino y veterano, quien participĂł en la Segunda Guerr a Mundial (19391945) antes de lanzar en California el movimiento “La causa â€? con el distintiv o grito de “SĂ­ se puedeâ€?.

La armadora General Dynamics Nassco informĂł, por su parte, que la construcciĂłn del barco

con el nombre de Chavez es un reconocimiento a sus trabajadores latinos, que constituy en el 60 por ciento de sus empleados.

Por su par te, el congresista republicano de San Diego, Duncan Hunter, miembro del comitĂŠ de Fuerzas Armadas, protestĂł por la decisiĂłn de nombrar al barco en honor a Chavez, fundador del sindicato campesino UniĂłn deTrabajadores AgrĂ­colas (UFW), que muriĂł en 1993.

Hunter dijo que fue una decisiĂłn “injusta â€? para los hĂŠroes que han muerto en combate.

La Armada, sin embar go, mantenĂ­a su decisiĂłn de bautizar la nav e con el nombr e de Chavez.

ach year hundreds of speeches ar e made by keynote speakers at different gr aduation cer emonies. This years’ commencement key note speaker for the graduating class of Cogswell College 2011 was Douglas Rand, former biologist and current policy advisor for the White House’s Office of Science and Technology.

Several s chool o fficials a nd c ommunity leaders were able to attend a preview luncheon w here D ouglas R and s poke o n a w ide range of issues affecting entrepreneurship including the roles of big business and small business.

Rand, an accomplished entrepreneur, has been working for the White House for eight months. P rior t o h is White H ouse a ppointment, Rand was Co-Founder and CEO of the innovative publishing company Playscripts, Inc. as well as a Co-Founder of the live theater review aggregator StageGrade.

Rand had visited the Silicon Valley six months ago. During his return, he acknowledged th e i mportance o f s chools l ike Cogswell College for encouraging students to start small businesses.

Rand talked about the R ecovery Act and its three immediate goals. These goals include the creation of new jobs, saving existing

ones, spur economic activity , inv esting in long-term gr owth and fostering unpr ecedented l evels o f a ccountability a nd t ransparency in government spending.

“There has to be an incentive to give out money,” said Rand. “We want anyone who is receiving money from an angel investment to pass a market test. This is v aluable to the people in the Silicon Valley.”

According to R and, his office is looking into schools like Cogswell that make it possible and available for their students to have real life experience with entrepreneurship.

There was also talk about S tartup America initiative, a coalition of mentors, advisors, funders, major corpor ations and ser vice providers who deliver strategic and substantive resources to help entrepreneurs start and scale-up companies.

Launched in January 31 of this year, the movement is focused on bringing the private sector together to maximiz e the success of America’s entrepreneurs.

“For most Americans, it’s pretty daunting to start a business even though many of them could be really good at it,” said Rand.

Rand concluded his remarks by encouraging the audience to keep the entrepreneurial spirit alive. He also addressed the Cogsw ell College 2011 graduates as a keynote speaker.

P

róxima a celebrar su primer aniversario en la red, Flor de María F ashion se r eunió c on u na d e l as g randes leyendas de la moda. Nos referimos a Carolina Herrera.

Herrera le comentó que ella se pr oyecta y diseña para la mujer internacional. Entr e otras cosas conversaron sobre los colores, y la tendencia para esta primavera- verano.

“Tuve el gran honor de conocer y entrevistar a Carolina Herrera, una de las diseñadoras más conocidas en el mundo. Desde niña la he admirado mucho, es una de mis diseñadoras preferidas, por lo que tenerla al frente mio fue una experiencia inolvidable. Te puedo decir que es un sueño hecho realidad”.

Recordemos que Flor de Maria Rivera inició el 19 de Julio del año pasado su blog de moda, Flor de María F ashion. Este blog bilingüe que nació como un pasatiempo se ha convertido en un gran fenómeno. Miles de seguidores de todo el mundo participan con sus com entarios, preguntas y sugerencias.

“Quiero agradecer a mis seguidores. La experiencia que tuve al reunirme con Carolina Herrera fue una idea genial el compar tirla con mis amigos en la red”, explica Rivera.

“Esa ener gía impr esionante, el por te, la clase, la elegancia que r ara vez se v e en este mundo además de su sencillez y encanto de Carolina Herrera lo compartí de inmediato en mi blog flordemariafashion.com”, agrega Rivera.

Aprovechando la llegada de la primav era y la visita de Carolina Herrera, Flor de María coincidió con Herrera que el color blanco viene como mucha fuerza al igual que los bl oques de co lores. Dijo además que las rayas, van a estar en todos lados, desde tops, faldas, vestidos y chaquetas.

Para esta primavera- verano se van a usar los estampados y pr endas de la época de los 70’s, tales como blusas anchas, plataformas, sombreros, y pantalones acampanados.

A veces se piensa que la moda cuesta. Sin embargo nuestra especialista en modas explica que no necesariamente h ay que inv ertir en mucho dinero para verse bien. “ Yo recomiendo que la gende debe vestirse de acuerdo al tipo de cuerpo que tienes. Si conoces bien tu cuerpo y te pones prendas que te favorecen, no vas a gastar mucho dinero, te vas a ver como si hubieses gastado miles de dólares”, explica Flor de María.

Flordemariafashion.com está regalando una cartera de marca e invita a todos a participar en la red.

T

odos los estudiantes y futuros estudiantes que necesiten ayuda económica para asistir al colegio deberían presentar una solicitud de ayuda financiera. ¿Por qué debo solicitar ayuda financiera?

Todos los estudiantes y posibles estudiantes que puedan necesitar Ayuda Financiera para asistir al colegio deben animarse a solicitar esta ayuda. Aún aquellas personas que piensan que no r eúnen los r equisitos, podrían sorpr enderse.

Most Americans unaware of gout risk factors

(ARA) ost A mericans need to kno w more a bout t he risk factors for gout, according to the findings of a new consumer s urvey. G out, sometimes ca lled g outy arthritis, i s c hronic a nd

M

painful. If left untreated, it can become disabling. It no w affects an estimated 8.3 million Americans.

While 59 percent of Americans know that gout is a lifelong d isease, m ost a dults don’t kno w what can put them - or their family mem-

bers - at risk, accor ding to a national survey conducted by the Gout & Uric Acid Education Society (GUAES). Gout is part of the arthritis family and in fact is the most common form of inflammatory ar thritis.

The telltale sign of a gout attack is usu ally sudden and often debilitating pain, most frequently felt in the lar ge joint of the big toe. A flare up can hurt so much that i t may require a trip to the emer gency room for relief. The culprit is a build-up of uric acid crystals in the joints caused by too much uric acid in the body. Everyone has uri c acid in their body . It’ s natur ally present in small amounts, but when someone has an abnormally high level, it can trigger a gout attack.

Americans don ’t hav e a good picture of other health conditions that can incr ease their r isk, a ccording t o t he survey. Here’s how Americans fared when their k nowledge of risk f actors for gout was

put to the test: * Only 1 in 10 Americans correctly cited cardiovascular disease as a risk factor for gout. * J ust 1 i n 3 A mericans correctly r eported that obesity is a risk factor. * One in 5 Americans knows that diabetes and kidney disease are also risk factors. * A mere 1 in 5 Americans made the connection that family history can put you at risk.

“It’s important to know if you may be at risk,” says Dr .

Brian Mandell, chairman of medicine a nd a s enior s taff member i n Rh eumatology and Immunologic Diseases in the Center for Vasculitis Care and Research at the Cleveland Clinic, and G UAES boar d member. “The survey findings concern me because gout is associated with all of these other se rious h ealth c onditions that are also on the rise.

Knowledge is power, and like many other diseases, early diagnosis and tr eatment is key.”

Other risk factors for gout With certain exceptions, gout develops in people age 45 or older . It affects men more than women. Once a woman is post menopausal, though, her risk is nearly the same as it is for m en of her age.

Here are some of the other risk factors to be aware of: * Untr eated high blood pressure * High cholesterol * O besity - s omeone obese i s fo ur t imes m ore likely to develop gout * Cr ash diets which can increase t he a mount o f u ric acid in the body * A high-fructose diet, including sweetened soft drinks * Excessive consumption of alcohol, especially beer * Joint injury * K idney d isease, w hich can c ome f rom h igh b lood

pressure or diabetes * Use of cer tain medicines, especially diuretics or water pills * Some anti-r ejection medications u sed i n t ransplant patients While there’s no cur e for gout, a combination of medication and lifestyle modifications may help those diagnosed manage the disease, helping them to maintain their active lifestyle.

For more information about risk factors for gout, talk to your doctor and visit www.GoutEducation.org. The website was developed by GUAES, a nonprofit group of health care professionals who educate the public and the health care community about gout and the related health care consequences of hyperuricemia. It offers free educational resources for patients and family members who may be at risk.

Tómese un momento para darle las gracias a un enfermero o una enfermera (ARA) na de las pr ofesiones más importantes se encuentra en estado crítico.

Durante la década anterior, los Estados Unidos ha sufrido una escasez grande de enfermeros y enfermeras.

Con un índice nacional de puestos vacantes de enfermeros t itulados del 4 por ciento, los pr ogramas a largo plaz o par a brindar apo yo a esta profesión son esenciales, y con una población que va envejeciendo y los cambios en el sistema de servicios médicos, se espera que l a necesidad de contar con enfermeros y enfermeras aumente todavía más.

Los enfermeros son la base fundamental y crítica -que muchas veces carece de suficiente personal de trabajo- de la atención médica en las salas de emergencia, hospitales, instalaciones militares, clínicas, escuelas, albergues para desamparados y residencias para personas de la tercera edad. Muchas veces sirven de enlace entre los pacientes y los tratamientos que reciben. Los enfermeros y enfermeras pueden determinar la experiencia que vivimos durante una consulta médica o en

un hospital; tr abajan con gr an esmero y muchas v eces sus contribuciones pasan inadv ertidas. La Semana Nacional de los Enfermeros, del 6 al 12 de mayo, es una oportunidad maravillosa para reflexionar y agradecer l a f unción v ital q ue d esempeñan tanto enfermeros como enfermeras en nuestras vidas. Por ello, l e p edimos q ue p or f avor s e tome usted un momento para agradecerles todo lo que hacen.

“Los enfermer os y las enfer meras son los proveedores de cuidados de la sociedad. Siempr e están presentes cuando más los necesitamos todos. Sus cuidados, consuelo y apoyo marcan una diferencia muy real en las vidas de sus pacientes y familias todos los días”, dice Andrea Higham, d irectora d e l a c ampaña Campaign for Nursing’s Future (Campaña para el Futuro de la Enfermería) de Johnson & Johnson. “L os enfermeros y enfermeras juegan una función i mportante e n n uestras comunidades, y nosotros nos comprometemos a apo yar esta pr ofesión para que ellos puedan continuar su impor tante labor de salvar vidas”.

La campaña Campaign for Nursing’s Future, fundada por Johnson & Johnson en 2002, es una iniciativa nacional para enriquecer la imagen de la profesión de enfermería y r eclutar e nfermeros y e nfermeras nuevos, así como profesores de enfermería, y ayudar a r etener a los profesionales de enfermería que ya se desempeñan en la misma. La campaña opera en cooperación con organizaciones profesionales de enfermería, escuelas, hospitales y otros grupos de ser vicios médicos para pr omover opor tunidades en enfermería y elevar el nivel de conciencia acerca del valor de la profesión. La campaña se asoció recientemente al pr ograma Urban Zen Integrative Therapy (UZIT) -fundado por Donna Karan- para atraer y enfocar a enfermeros y enfermeras en su propio bienestar y salud per sonal, así como para entrenar a sus compañeros. Los estudiantes de enfermería de todo el país recibieron instrucción acerca de técnicas para la disminución del estrés en la r eciente reunión anual de la National Student Nurses Association (NSNA), y Johnson & Johnson otorgó becas a

enfermeros y enfermeras calificados para U ZIT, un pr ograma de 500 horas con un currículo avanzado enfocado en modalidades y terapias integrales.

Donna K aran es r econocida mundialmente como diseñadora de modas, pero su pasión por y compromiso con el bienestar y la salud integral han ayudado a r edefinirla como filántropa. “En algún punto de nuestras v idas, c ada u no d e nosotros se convertirá en paciente y dependeremos de nuestr os enfermeros y enfermer as par a r ecibir atención y cuidados médicos”, dice la Sra. Karan, fundadora de la Urban Zen Foundation. “Les estoy eternamente agradecida a los enferm eros y enfermeras que nos han cuidado a mí y a mis seres queridos. Ser un proveedor de servicios médicos es una gran responsabilidad y un obsequio enorme que me han dado muchos hombres y mujeres especiales, y por eso me siento tan orgullosa y entusiasmada de que la campaña Campaign for Nursing’ s F uture de Johnson & Johnson haya creado una beca q ue p roporcione f inanciamiento para enfermeros y enfer-

meras excepcionales que participan en el pr ograma de terapia integral Urban Z en Integrative Ther apy”.

La Miel como una Fuente de Energía Natural

L

a miel es una fuente natural de carbohidratos – el principal “ combustible” que el cuerpo utiliza par a obtener energía. Pon en práctica estos consejos para energizar tu día: * La miel es u na fuente de energía conveniente y portátil. Consume miel para ayudar a m antener tu nivel de energía a lo largo de todo el día o durante tus actividades deportivas. * Combina la miel con frutas, v erduras, carnes magras, granos enteros y otros alimentos n utritivos p ara o btener u n e xcelente impulso de energía natural. * Mientras haces ejercicio, en lugar

de beber una simple botella de agua, agrégale un poco de miel. Tendrás una bebida deportiva naturalmente deliciosa y r efrescante que posterga el cansancio muscular * La miel contiene 17 gramos de carbohidratos por cucharada. Si deseas un rico snack, prepara una mezcla de miel y crema de cacahuate o queso cr ema bajo en gr asa y úsalo como dip para acompañar frutas o verduras frescas. * Un sándwich de crema de cacahuate y miel con pan integral es un excelente snack, ya que aporta una gran cantidad de energía y brinda una buena combinación de carbohidratos, proteínas y grasas.

(Información C ortesía d e l a N ational Honey Board)

Duchas largas no solo son fastidiosas, también gastan una gran cantidad de agua. Pero si usted corta sus duchas por solo 5 minutos, ahorraría 15 galones de agua cada vez. Los ahorros no paran ahí: Instale grifos con aireador y regaderas de baja presión y ahorre 16 galones al día.

Espere hasta que tenga suficiente ropa en la maquina, o hasta que la lavadora de platos este llena antes de empezar a lavar y ahorre 20 galones por lavada.

Componga goteos y ahorre mas de 15 galones al día, por cada goteo.

Instale inodoros de alta-eficiencia y ahorre 25 galones al día.

Pequeñas acciones como estas resultan en grandes ahorros. Si todos conser vamos 20 galones al día, ahorraríamos más de 13 billones galones al año en solo el condado de Santa Clara. Para más consejos visite www.save20gallons.org

Lectura del café

E

l a rte a divinatorio d e l eer e l c afé comenzó a practicarse en los tiempos de la civilización P ersa, difundiéndose en Europa y Asia en los primeros siglos de nuestr a er a. F ueron tantos lo s pronósticos acer tados en aquel entonces, que hasta el día de hoy su practica es reconocida en los cinco continentes. Una de las maneras más comunes par a r ealizar una predicción, consiste en beber una taza d e café en un lapso de diez minutos, al terminar de beber se le da vuelta a la taza y se coloca sobre un plato, dejándola r eposar dur ante siete minutos. Posteriormente se le da vuelta a la taza para observar las figuras o símbolos revelados. La taza y el plato deben ser blancos y nuevos.
