l futuro próximo de nuestros niños, familias, comunidades y sociedades depende de las decisiones que todos tomamos a diario, pues éstas impactan significativamente la atmósfera del planeta en el que vivimos. Los estudios científicos señalan contundentemente que si no se efectúan cambios ahora en la manera en que consumimos energía y utilizamos los recursos naturales, en un futuro cercano la Tierra experimentará una serie de crisis que amenazarán la supervivencia de la mayoría de sus habitantes.

Los padres de familia tienen la oportunidad y responsabilidad de servirles de guías y ejemplos a sus hijos, al tomar medidas como las siguientes para conservar energía y proteger la atmósfera de nuestro hermoso planeta. (Estas recomendaciones están basadas en las ofrecidas en el sitio Internet www.energycrisis.org y mencionadas en la película “An Inconvenient Truth”).

1. Reemplazar bombillos de luz incandescentes por fluorescentes (CFL), los cuales usan 60% menos energía que los regulares.

2. Ajustar los termostatos 2° más bajos en el invierno y 2° más altos en el verano.

3. Lavar o reemplazar los filtros de la calefacción y del aire acondicionado. Limpiar un filtro de aire ahorra 350 libras de bióxido de carbono al año.

4. Instalar termostatos programables. Ajustan la calefacción durante la noche y pueden ahorrarle hasta $100 al año en su cuenta de electricidad o gas.

5. Escoja enseres domésticos eficientes.

Busque la etiqueta con la estrella de energía.

6. Cubrir el calentador de agua con insulación.

7. Usar menos agua caliente. Instalar ducha de flujo bajo y lavar la ropa en agua fría o tibia.

8. Tender la ropa a secar en lugar de usar secadora.

9. Apagar y desconectar los enseres eléctricos cuando no están en uso. Gastan energía aún apagados.

10. Usar la lavadora de platos solamente cuando esté llena.

11. Insular las paredes y techos de las viviendas.

12. Reciclar materiales (papel, plástico, cristal, lata) y reusar objetos lo más posible.

13. Usar productos de papel reciclado.

14. Procurar un asesoramiento de energía de su hogar.

15. Escoger servicios de energía de fuentes renovables.

16. Comprar alimentos cultivados y producidos en su área.

17. Comprar comidas frescas en lugar de congeladas.

18. Patrocinar mercados de agricultores locales.

19. Consumir comida orgánica lo más posible.

20. Sembrar árboles.

21. Evitar productos con muchas envolturas, los cuales producen mucha basura.

22. Consumir o eliminar la carne de la dieta de su familia.

23. Reducir el número de millas que viaja en auto. Caminar, montar bicicleta, o tomar autobuses cuando pueda.

24. Compartir los viajes con compañeros de trabajo o escuela.

25. Mantener los autos al día, y las llantas infladas.

26. Escoger autos eficientes, híbridos o eléctricos.

27. Trabajar desde casa cuando sea posible.

28. Viajar por avión con menos frecuencia.

29. Votar porque los puestos políticos sean ocupados por candidatos comprometidos con proteger el medioambiente.

30. Pasarle recomendaciones como éstas a sus seres queridos y conocidos…

Child Care/Calworks Program: Funding Vetoed

Vote In Your Own Interests

By Hilbert Morales

M

B

y surprise on Friday, October 8, 2010, during his completion of the 2010-2011 Budget, Governor Schwarzenegger vetoed $256,000,000 from CalWORKs Stage 3 Child Care Program. This eliminated childcare services for low income working families receiving Stage 3 funded child care through Santa Clara County Alternative Payment Providers.

The immediate impacts of these cuts will include: * About 3,000 taxpaying, low income families who are currently contributing to the County’s struggling economy will be forced to decide between keeping child care or working. * Approximately 2,000 Santa Clara County Child Care Providers serving Stage 3 Families throughout the county will lose payment for services. This places their businesses at risk. * Destroys California’s 15-year investment, which moved families from welfare to work. This places 60,000 California families on the unemployment and welfare rolls. About 3,000 Santa Clara County children from low income working family homes are left without access to safe licensed quality childcare.

The massive elimination of childcare services will result also in endangered child safety and lost learning opportunities for those young children who will be dropped from their child care programs beginning November 1, 2010.

Child care providers are already struggling with high vacancy rates due to the current 11.1 local unemployment Rate in Santa Clara County.

Further, these cuts will have a ripple effect on businesses losing employees who are working parents because they will be unable to work reliably without child care services.

Ocurrielcias

The State Budget was balanced on the backs of the low-income working class.

any registered voters already received their personal VOTE BY MAIL ballot. So the polls are open for those voters who have already decided how they will vote on the many issues. Regardless of which issue you focus on, your elected official needs to know your values and priorities as a constituent. These issues include a) the economy; b) supporting education and training; c) passage of a comprehensive immigration and the DREAM Act. Many major public policy issues exist.

It is highly recommended that each registered voter learn about all issues before voting in their own interests. Be aware that much propaganda exists in mainstream media in the

form of polls, projections, opinions, interpretations, etc. Remain focused on the facts that can be verified. This is the best information to use along with your own personal values based on reasonable morals and ethics. To work well, democracy requires an informed voter who votes in his/her own interest.

La Familia Award

S

AN JOSE, California .—La Familia Payne of San Jose are the recipients of the 2010 La Familia Award.

Brothers Daniel, Frank, and Ron Payne have a combined 49 years of military service in the United States Marine Corps. Additionally, Robert Payne has served as a San Jose Police Officer for 18 years.

The family’s volunteerism includes working with the San Jose GI Forum, American Legion, Toys for Tots, The Republican National Hispanic Association, Girls Scouts of America, Relay for Life and working with at risk youth in local high schools and middles schools.

The 2010 La Familia Award is the highest honor bestowed by the Hispanic Foundation of Silicon Valley and it is presented to an entire family who has demonstrated exemplary commitment and volunteer service to the community. This year the Hispanic Foundation Board of Directors decided to also recognize the long tradition of Hispanics serving in the U. S. Military.

La Familia Payne’s history of service dates back to the 1900’s and the days of Pancho Villa when Great Grandfather Gaspar Cantu was a three star general in the Mexican Army and fought in the Mexican Revolutionary War. The Cantu family came to the United States in 1952 and settled in San Jose where the family con-

tinued its commitment and service to the community.

Daniel Payne enlisted in the United States Marine Corps in 1973 and worked as a Missile Technician with a missile guided system. Frank Payne enlisted in the United States Marine Corps in 1973 serving in both Desert Shield and Desert Storm. Frank’s platoon was in charge in of loading over six war ships with supplies for troops in the Middle East and was just one of six honored for completing their mission in a timely manner.

Ron Payne joined the Marine Corps in 1982, reaching the rank of Corporal and receiving an expert shooting badge, he retired after four years of service. He is currently a NASA engineer working on some of the country’s top programs including the Space Shuttle program.

Robert Payne, the youngest of the Payne brothers, opted to serve and protect the local community through law enforcement. He has been a San Jose Police Officer for the past 18 years. He has been recognized by the CHP for his efforts in locating 32 stolen vehicles, 12 of which were occupied and all 12 suspects were captured.

The family will be honored at the 21st Annual Hispanic Charity Ball, being held on Saturday, October 16, 2010, at the San Jose Fairmont Hotel.

Lessons in Retention:

Parents Can Help Young Minds Learn at Home

(NewsUSA)

A

s an adult, you may know that lessons learned in high school or college can quickly go by the wayside. Studies have shown that children struggling in school score higher on achievement tests in June than they do at the end of the traditional summer break. Even more concerning are findings that indicate how these learning losses can add up with each passing year. In fact, by the time they reach middle school, some students may experience a 2-year lag in reading achievement.

Even during shorter "breaks," parents should stimulate their children's minds through reading and learning games, during holidays, after school and on weekends. Experts have found that parents who incorporate learning toys and tools into everyday activities and playtime enable children to have fun while also learning lessons in physics, math, spelling and reading.

Beginning in the '80s, tech toys started to play a role in helping kids learn. Toys like Speak & Spell engaged kids in new, fun, interactive ways to learn spelling. In fact, teachers have found technology to be effective in the classroom, as well. One such tool, the Tag Reading System from LeapFrog (www.leapfrog.com/tag), is actually recommended by 99 percent of teachers to help kids learn to read. Best of all, parents can

easily get it for kids to use at home, too, to reinforce learning. This handheld learning tool engages children in exciting, interactive ways. For example, every time a child touches the Tag Reader to specially printed books and materials, they can get on-demand pronunciation for individual words, listen to audio from characters and other story elements, and play fun activities that reinforce key skills such as comprehension and vocabulary development.

In addition to providing learning toys, parents can help their children retain learning in the following ways: * Have discussions with children about what they are reading. Ask them to talk about books they enjoy, retell the plots, and discuss their favorite characters. * Play board games and card games.

While you enjoy valuable family time, you can help your child build skills related to problem-solving, memory, and comprehension * Go online. There are a number of websites with games that help children build important spelling, reading, and math skills while they're having fun.

Dr. Carolyn Jaynes is LeapFrog's Literacy Expert, specializing in language and literacy development. With a PhD in Counseling, Educational Psychology and Special Education, Dr. Jaynes has more than 22 years of experience as an educator.

Tips to Keep Your Computer Running Smoothly (NewsUSA)

system components, as well as any applications running on the platform. Every time you save something, run a new application or install or uninstall a program, new information is organized into

B

uying a new computer's always a thrill -- but sooner or later, your fast new machine will start to act like a clunker. Or will it?

With a few simple tips, you can keep your computer running smoothly. Sammsoft (www.sammsoft.com), a company that develops and publishes quality software products designed to secure, protect, maintain and enhance computer users' experience, provides the following tips: 1. Clean out your computer registry.

Every Windows Operating System uses a registry, or a central database that contains all of the settings for low-level operating

your registry.

But occasionally, the registry records something incorrectly. Over time, registry errors pile up and can start slowing down your computer. But running a registry cleaner, such as Advanced Registry Optimizer 2010 by Sammsoft, will fix registry errors and remove faulty files, helping your computer run quickly and smoothly.

2. Keep viruses under wraps. Run a virus checker regularly. If you have a high-

speed wireless connection, don't use the Internet without a firewall. No antivirus strategy is perfect, so stay away from suspicious-looking Web sites and don't click on strange links in e-mails.

3. Get rid of unnecessary files. If you haven't used a program in months or years, delete it to reclaim valuable memory. But always back-up applications in case you want to reinstall them later, and don't delete applications that you don't recognize, as Windows might need them to run.

Never remove WINDOWS or HOT FIX applications. Also delete cookies and clear your Internet cache before you sign-off your computer.

4. Never turn off your computer before Windows has shut down. Doing so so could harm the hard drive or result in lost data or Windows files.

5. Back up Your Computer. Hardware problems occur more that you might think, and you don't want to deal with the frustration of losing valuable data. Back up photos, Excel spreadsheets, Word documents -- anything that you do not want to lose -- on external hard drives or CDs. For more information, visit www.sammsoft.com.

How Healthy Is Your Child's Packed Lunch?

(NewsUSA)

E

very time you pack your kids' lunches, you have an opportunity to give them a fun, healthy meal. Are you making the most of it?

Janice Newell Bissex, MS, RD and Liz Weiss, MS, RD, authors of the book "No Whine with Dinner," along with the California Raisin Marketing Board, offer the following tips for better lunches: * Take a Lunchbox Assess-

ment. Look at your children's lunches. Healthy lunches should include whole grains, such as whole-wheat bread, pitas or tortillas; high-quality lean protein, such as roasted deli turkey, beans or tofu; lowfat dairy, such as low-fat milk, yogurt, cheese and calcium-fortified soy milk; and fruits and vegetables, such as sliced apples, strawberries, California raisins, sliced bell pepper strips, baby carrots or raw green beans.

If your child's lunch doesn't contain something from each food group, figure out where you can add healthier foods.

Improving your child's lunch could be as simple as using whole-wheat bread instead of white bread or adding more

PREGUNTE AL EXPERTO La Dra. Toni P. Miles, profesora de la Facultad de Medicina de la Universidad de Louisville, y Robert Phillips, experto en políticas de The California Endowment, abordan tres de las preguntas más frecuentes acerca de los beneficios de asistencia para adultos mayores en virtud de la Ley de protección al paciente y atención sanitaria asequible (Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, en inglés) promulgada en marzo de 2010.

Pregunta: A muchas personas de la tercera edad les preocupa que la nueva ley recorte los beneficios de Medicare y haga más difícil para los beneficiarios del programa el acceso a una buena atención médica.. ¿Es esto verdad?

Respuesta: La ley garantiza que no habrá reducciones de los beneficios de Medicare. Como saben, Medicare es un programa de seguro médico para personas mayores de 65 años, algunas personas discapacitadas menores de 65 años, y personas con enfermedad renal en etapa terminal.

Pregunta: Muchas personas se preocupan por lo que harán si sufren una enfermedad debilitante que requiera cuidados de larga duración. ¿Podrán quedarse en casa y ser atendidas allí, en lugar de terminar en una residencia de ancianos?

Respuesta: La nueva ley de asistencia médica crea un nuevo programa de seguro llamado el programa de Apoyo y Servicios de Asistencia para Vivir en la Comunidad (Community Living Assistance Services and Support, CLASS, por sus siglas en inglés). CLASS incrementa sus opciones a largo plazo para vivir de forma independiente si sufre una discapacidad que reúna los requisitos o si desarrolla una. Por ejemplo, se puede usar este

seguro para contribuir al pago de cuidados de vida asistida y modificaciones en la casa.

A partir de 2012 ó 2013, primero tendrá que inscribirse en el programa CLASS. Después de pagar las primas durante por lo menos cinco años y satisfacer varios requisitos de elegibilidad, usted será elegible para recibir los beneficios.

Pregunta: Muchos de los que están en Medicare Parte D acaban gastando cientos de dólares cada mes para pagar sus medicamentos recetados. ¿Cómo les afectará la nueva ley a ellos?

Respuesta: La nueva ley cerrará el agujero de la dona, una "interrupción en la cobertura", a la cual a veces se le llama "donut hole" en inglés..

A partir de enero de 2011, las compañías farmacéuticas ofrecerán un descuento del 50 por ciento en medicamentos de marca a beneficiarios con ingresos medios y bajos que se encuentran en el agujero de la dona. Con el tiempo, el agujero de la dona empezará a reducirse y, finalmente, desaparecerá por completo en 2020.

Este año, los beneficiarios de Medicare que alcanzaron el agujero de la dona recibieron un cheque de reembolso de $250 como parte de la nueva ley.

Rápido y sin paradas se llega al centro de San José

Hondurans demand the re-establishment of democratic order

By Cinthia Rodriguez - El Observador

Estos son los trenes rápidos que están pintados de azul para que los usuarios los identifiquen de inmediato.

Por Rosario Vital El Observador

A

primeras horas de la mañana muchas personas quieren llegar a tiempo a sus respectivos centros de trabajo. Otros quieren tener unos minutos para agarrar un café, lo cierto es que ya se puso en marcha un servicio rápido y sin paradas que viene desde el sur de al centro de nuestra ciudad y viceversa en horas de mayor tráfico.

El Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VTA) comenzó un nuevo servicio de tranvía que mejorará su viaje significativamente.

Así lo corroboró el Concejal del Distrito 3 y miembro de la Junta Directiva del VTA, Sam Liccardo. “Nos hemos basado en los estudios y encuestas trabajadas por las autoridades de transporte. Esta encuesta se llevó en diferentes idiomas y el público toma este transporte desde Santa Teresa que no se detiene hasta el centro de la ciudad”, dijo Liccardo a EO. La idea es que muchas personas hagan uso del servicio público. Especialmente después de las 7:00 am donde el tráfico está bastante pesado. La carretera 87 en dirección norte en horario matutino está bastante congestionada. Sin embargo este servicio llega en minutos al centro de la ciudad.

El VTA ha establecido tres viajes durante las horas pico de la mañana rumbo al norte, y tres viajes rumbo al sur durante las horas pico de la tarde. Los trenes rápidos rumbo al norte saldrán de la estación de Santa Teresa durante la semana laboral desde las 7:16, 7:46 y 8:16 de la mañana. Rumbo al sur el servicio rápido saldrá de la estación Baypointe durante la semana laboral desde las 4:07, 4:37, y 5:07 de la tarde.

Los trenes pararán en todas las estaciones entre Santa Teresa y Ohlone/Chynoweth, y continuarán sin parar hasta el Convention Center. Desde el Convention Center, los trenes harán todas las paradas hasta llegar a la estación de Baypointe.

“Estoy satisfecho que el servicio va directo al centro de la ciudad. Me ahorro unos minutos y es bueno porque no evito todo el tráfico que hay en la autopista 87”, dijo

John Preston, usuario de este servicio.

Los trenes Exprés de VTA podrán viajar a una velocidad de hasta 45 millas por hora mientras pasan las estaciones sin parar.

Los pasajeros viajarán rápidamente por el mismo precio que se cobra por un viaje regular en el servicio actual de tranvía. Según los datos proporcionados por VTA 37% de los usuarios son latinos y este grupo se beneficiará de este rápido servicio.

Para más detalles acerca del nuevo servicio ó ayuda con su viaje, por favor comuníquese con el Departamento de Servicio al Cliente de VTA al (408) 321-321-2300, TTY solamente al (408) 321-2330. Usted también podrá visitar el www.vta.org y recibir correos electrónicos con información actual de VTA.

El concejal Sam Liccardo tomó el servicio para dirigirse a trabajar y corroboró que el servicio es rápido, efectivo y de gran utilidad para todos los usuarios.

A

few weeks ago, the attempted coup d’etat in Ecuador was defeated. The same cannot be said for Honduras.

After the country's democratically-elected President Jose Manuel Zelaya was ousted in a June 2009 coup, he was replaced in office by a member of his own Liberal Party, Roberto Micheletti. The first successful Latin American military coup in decades.

On October 11, Honduran Resistance members spoke about their fight against the coup at the San Jose Peace & Justice Center.

"What the media says here and in Honduras, is that in Honduras everything is wonderful and nothing is wrong, while the reality of politics is another,” said Angel Antonio Jimenez, professor of economics, Nacional Pedagogical University Francisco Morazan, San Pedro Sula in Honduras.

Jimenez lives in Honduras and is visiting the U.S. in support of the efforts

by Frente Resistencia Hondurena de Los Angeles (FRHLA).

The appropriate international attention to Honduras was short-lived, and though interest in the coup couldn't be avoided for at least a couple of days, it quickly faded away. One reason of why that happened can be given credit to the election of current president Porfirio Lobo. It is assumed that everything will get better with him in government, stated Jimenez.

Things have actually got worse and that is evident through the economy.

Jimenez remembers when the economy had grown 6% and how it drastically dropped after the coup. There is a lack of medicine, workers who try to unionize are fired, and people who live in the countryside are also being affected.

"We are asking for the return of democracy in Honduras, so that our compatriots stop immigrating to countries that exploit them," said Carlos Mejia, member of FRHLA. "Because if we have democracy and economic progress we believe that the real development of the people to stop problems like that of hunger will only be achieved through solidarity and we need solidarity."

Zelaya supporters have kept up their demonstrations to demand his return from exile in the Dominican Republic. On September, 15, over 200,000 people marched in San Pedro Sula but faced tear gas attacks. Overall, the Resistance is aware of 200 deaths, 8 of which have been journalists and the countless others that are harassed.

"The repression has been becoming more violent and strong but not only because of the repression or the coup, it's also the arrests and the tortures," said Antonio. "But in spite of all this, the people are demonstrating great courage because they always resist and criticize both the government and ask in a systematic way to a possible constitutional foundation for the country."

There is no current mechanism or force to get rid of the people supporting the coup, but the Resistance doesn’t give up. To help the Resistance, write a letter to government officials in support of re-establishing democracy in Honduras. For more information visit, www.frhla.org.

Presentan el primer sistema electrónico de registro de votantes Por Rosario Vital El Observador l Supervisor del Condado de Santa Clara Dave Cortese, anunció el programa piloto de un sistema electrónico que registrará a nuevos votantes en todo proceso electoral.

Durante la presentación el Supervisor Cortese dialogó con los estudiantes sobre la importancia del voto.

Este sistema se ha desarrollado por la compañía Verafirma y promete registrar a más votantes de una manera sencilla,segura y menos costosa para todos los ciudadanos.

EO dialogó con Peter Allen, representante de Verafirma sobre este moderno sistema, el primero de la nación que se lanza y pretende ayudar a que más votantes se registren en los procesos electorales.

Rituales para la buena salud Por Mario Jiménez El Observador

Para tener salud y fortaleza El día primero de cada mes se ponen a hervir en dos litros de agua, los pétalos de un girasol, los pétalos de tres flores amarillas, nueve hojas del árbol de limón, un ramito de perejil, un poco de hierba

angélica, un poco de té de boldo, tres rajitas de canela y una ramita de ruda. Espere a que la mezcla enfrié, cuélela y úsela como enjuague después de bañarse. Al final se quema incienso de pino e invoque la presencia de San Rafael Arcángel.

Para recuperar la buena salud Se recomienda hacerse enjuagues con hojas y flores de naranjo, estas se dejan reposar por siete horas en litro y medio de agua tibia, se le agrega el jugo de dos mandarinas, unas ramita de hierbabuena, flores de verbena, un poco de hierba santa y unas gotas de esencia de canela. En día martes utilice la mezcla después de bañarse. Finalice rezando la oración del Señor de la misericordia.

Para sanar prontamente de una enfermedad Se necesita un litro de agua tibia, un litro de agua mineral, el agua de tres cocos, los pétalos de cinco rosas o claveles blancos, un poco de cascarilla, la quinta parte de una botella de agua florida, una botella de agua bendita. Mezcle todos los ingredientes y utilice la mezcla como enjuague después de bañarse. Al final invoque la presencia de San Juan de Dios. Hágalo en día martes.

Para procurar alivio a un enfermo.

Se consigue un coco de buen tamaño, se coloca debajo de la cama del enfermo junto a una piedra imán. A los siete días el coco se quiebra afuera de la casa y los restos se van a dejar al cementerio. La piedra imán se entierra. Comience en día viernes.

Para aliviar trastornos emocionales Son recomendados los enjuagues con agua de albahaca durante siete días seguidos, por la noche se debe tomar una infusión de hierba de San Juan y antes de dormir se reza tres veces la oración a Santa Dympna. Comience en día viernes.

Posteriormente tome con sus dos manos un cristal de cuarzo y expóngase a la luz solar durante media hora. Finalice haciéndose un enjuague con agua de hojas y flores de limón.

Los restos de la vela y el plato se entierran. Al final se invoca la ayuda de San Camilo de Lelis.

Chile celebra rescate Santiago, (Notimex) l presidente chileno Sebastián Piñera dijo tras culminar el rescate de los 33 mineros desde el yacimiento San José, en el norte del país, que los trabajadores dieron un ejemplo de compañerismo, coraje y lealtad.

En un diálogo con el último rescatado, el jefe de turno Luis Urzúa, Piñera señaló que “nos sentimos orgullosos de todos y cada uno de los 33 mineros porque nos han dado un ejemplo de compañerismo, de coraje y de lealtad”.

El mandatario agradeció a los “miles y miles de personas que trabajaron incansablemente para que ustedes estén aquí con nosotros”, entre quienes mencionó a los ministros de Minería, Laurence Golborne, y de Salud, Jaime Mañalich, y los jefes de rescate.

El gobernante “recibió el turno” en forma simbólica de manos de Urzúa y lo felicitó porque “cumplió con su deber, saliendo al último, como lo hace siempre un bien capitán”, tras lo cual agradeció a Dios por el rescate realizado en las últimas horas.

Luego cantó, “con el casco en el corazón”, la Canción Nacional de Chile y, a los gritos de “¡Viva Chile!”, se abrazó con todas las personas que estaban en la plataforma de rescate a la cual llegaba la cápsula Fénix 2.

A continuación comenzaron los trabajos para sacar del fondo de la mina, a 622 metros de profundidad, a los seis socorristas que trabajaron desde la víspera en el rescate de los 33 trabajadores, todos los cuales se encuentran en un hospital por precaución.

Mario Vargas Llosa's New Novel

MIAMI riter Mario Vargas Llosa, one of the most renowned voices in Latin American literature, has been further distinguished with the Nobel Prize in Literature "for his cartography of the structures of power and his scathing images on resistance, uprisings, and individual defeat." The author of such works as "La ciudad y los perros," "Conversacion en La Catedral" or "La Fiesta del Chivo," has stated he feels "very moved and excited" about the award.

Vargas Llosa's editors, who learned of the news at the Frankfurt Book Fair, reacted euphorically.

W

Pilar Reyes, Alfaguara's director, announced that "today, the Spanish language is having a party."

ABOUT THE WORK: On November 3rd, four years after Vargas Llosa's last bestselling novel, "Travesuras de la nina mala" (The Bad Girl), Editorial Alfaguara will publish "El sueno del celta" with an initial run of 500,000 books.

This newest work is based on the life of Irish patriot and revolutionary, Roger Casement, one of the first Europeans who had a clear understanding of Colonialism. Casement accurately documented the abuses and human rights violations committed

by European governments.

"El sueno del celta" recounts an eventful journey that starts in the Congo in 1903 and ends in a London jail, one morning in 1916. Here is the story of the vicissitudes of a legend: Irishman Roger Casement. Hero and villain, traitor and liberator, moral and immoral, his multifaceted figure dies out and is reborn after his death. Casement was one of the first Europeans to denounce the horrors of Colonialism with sound arguments.

From his trips to the Congo and the Amazonian region of Peru two memorable reports survived whose revelations shook the society of the time.

These reports exposed a painful truth: it wasn't the savagery of the inhabitants of the Congo or the Amazonia that turned civilized Europeans into barbarians; it was the latter who, in the name of commerce, civilization and Christianity, committed the most barbarous acts.

What he witnessed during these two trips changed Casement forever and led him to embark on a different journey, this time intellectual, which was just as—or even more so—devastating. This journey took him to confront an England he admired and become an active militant for the Irish Nationalist cause. In the middle of World War I he traveled to Berlin to conspire against the United Kingdom and in 1916 he participated in the Easter Rising, the act that finally led to his imprisonment.

Homosexuales contentos por resolución Los Angeles,(Notimex) na jueza federal estadounidense con sede en Riverside dispuso una histórica orden de restricción nacional, con la que se suspende la política que prohibía el ingreso a las Fuerzas Armadas de los homosexuales.

Con la resolución emitida este día por la jueza Virginia Phillips, se da por terminada una política que se había mantenido por 17 años, conocida como “Don’t ask, don’t tell” (No preguntes, no digas), que se aplicaba a las preferencias sexuales en las fuerzas armadas.

El Departamento de Justicia tendrá 60 días para apelar la decisión de la jueza, que consideró inconstitucional la disposición después de un juicio de dos semanas sin jurado en un tribunal federal de Riverside.

La resolución fue recibida de manera positiva y hasta vitoreada por las comunidades de homosexuales y lesbianas, así como por organismos defensores de los derechos civiles en el país.

En septiembre pasado, Phillips expresó una resolución que señalaba que la política que prohibía el acceso de los homosexuales a las fuerzas armadas sólo deterioraba a éstas y violaba la Primera Enmienda constitucional.

La demanda fue presentada en 2004 por Log Cabin republicans, la más grande organización política para homosexuales en el Partido Republicano.

Aguilera, de 29 aĂąos y quien hace unos meses declarĂł estar bendecida por su uniĂłn con Bratman, de 33 aĂąos, al parecer desde hace varios meses no vivĂ­a con su pareja, indicaron fuentes cercanas a la cantante.

La artista aĂşn no inicia de forma oficial el trĂĄmite de divorcio para dar fin a casi cinco aĂąos de uniĂłn, tiempo en el que procreĂł a Max, de dos aĂąos.

Bratman fue productor de uno de los ĂĄlbumes de Aguilera, con quien se casĂł el 19 de noviembre de 2005.

La fuente confirmĂł que la pareja, cuya crisis interna se agudizĂł en los Ăşltimos seis meses, "estĂĄ viviendo separada y estĂĄ decidiendo su futuro en la relaciĂłn".

El mismo informante indicĂł que la propia Christina habĂ­a propuesto un viaje a Italia en agosto pasado, con el fin de salvar la relaciĂłn; sin embargo esto no ayudĂł.

Bratman sigue trabajando en sus proyectos, mientras que Aguilera da los Ăşltimos toques a la que serĂĄ su producciĂłn que grabĂł en relaciĂłn con el musical que se estrenarĂĄ el 24 de noviembre, "Burlesque".

“It’s an extraordinary show and a family vacation all rolled into one incredible night,” says Producer Kenneth Feld. “You really get a sense you are traveling right alongside Mickey, Minnie and their friends.”

Disney On Ice presents Mickey & Minnie’s Magical Journey features an international team of award-winning skaters, exciting choreography and a musical score filled with familiar Disney hits and rock-and-roll classics the whole family will enjoy. The unconventional mix of music inspired Choreographer Cindy Stuart to incorporate original moves, like the boisterous pirate line dance.

Stuart has also included more classic skating, like David and Nani’s touching surf duet and Prince Eric and Ariel’s tender pas de deux.

¿Vida después de la muerte?

“Hereafter” te da la pista "Hereafter" ofrece tres historias interconectadas que pueden servirnos para analizar el tema con la seriedad que se merece.

El film comienza de una manera impactante, con la periodista francesa Marie LeLay (la actriz belga Cécile de France), una estrella de la televisión de su país, disfrutando de unas hermosas vacaciones junto a su pareja en una paradisíaca isla tropical.

Mientras está realizando compras en la feria del pueblo, un tsunami impacta contra la costa, derribándolo todo a su paso.

El mar pronto se lleva a Marie, y solo un milagro hace que sobreviva. Sin embargo, en los momentos más dramáticos, Marie "ha visitado" lo que parece ser el Más Allá. ¿Ha sido un sueño mientras estaba inconsciente, o lo ha visto de verdad?

La respuesta la tiene el espectador, pero lo cierto es que ella ya no volverá a ser la misma. La segunda historia tiene como protagonista a Matt Damon, quien encarna a George Lonegan, un obrero norteamericano que tiene un don, al que él vive como una maldición. Cuando era niño, fue sometido a una operación en la que, técnicamente, permaneció muerto durante unos minutos.

Al regresar a la vida, trajo con él una extraña capacidad para percibir las almas de los seres queridos que rodean a los vivos. Durante mucho tiempo, George se ganó la vida ofreciendo sus servicios a aquellos que buscaban comunicarse con los muertos,

pero la extraordinaria carga emocional que cada una de esas sesiones acarreaba terminaron convenciéndolo de que era mejor dedicarse a otra cosa, para la desazón de su hermano Billy (Jay Mohr), quien sabe que ese talento puede equivaler a una mina de oro.

La tercera historia no tiene estrellas, y está protagonizada por dos niños gemelos, Frankie y George McLaren, quienes interpretan a Marcus y Jason, los que llevan una vida complicada junto a una madre alcóholica.

Pero cuando Jason es atropellado por un vehículo tras huir de unos bravucones que lo acosaban, Marcus comenzará una búsqueda desesperada para tratar de comunicarse con el hermano que acaba de fallecer. Asi recurrirá a todo tipo de charlatanes, hasta que finalmente dé con el único hombre que realmente puede ayudarle a saber si existe el Más Allá, y por sobre todas las cosas, cómo está su hermano.

Bryce Dallas Howard encarna a Melanie, una mujer que acaba de mudarse a San Francisco, escapando de un amor frustrado, y conoce a George en una clase de cocina, a la que asiste porque cree que es un buen método para conocer gente. Lo que promete ser una historia de amor tendrá un giro inesperado cuando ella descubra el don de George, en una de las escenas más impactantes de la historia del cine. "Hereafter" ya está en el cine.

Beauty and the Beast: Diamond Edition

B

u r bank, Calif.– Walt Disney Studios Home Entert a i n m e n t (WDSHE) proudly announces the Bluray high-definition debut of Disney’s animated masterpiece, Beauty and the Beast.

Disney’s most requested film, Beauty and the Beast, arrives for the first time on Blu-ray Hi-Def as the second installment to the company’s new Diamond Collection.

The Blu-ray transformation reveals the magic,

music and majesty of the film as never before experienced with state-of-the-art picture restoration, pristine 7.1 Digital Surround Sound and hours of additional viewing experiences that include behind the scenes features, deleted scenes, enhanced music tracks, immersive games and more.

Giovani Dos Santos regresaría al futbol español Madrid, (Notimex) l delantero mexicano Giovani Dos Santos, del equipo Tottenham, podría regresar al futbol español luego de darse a conocer la posibilidad de que sea cedido a Sevilla o Villarreal.

Los equipos interesados en el joven futbolista van en aumento, luego de que apenas hace unos días se informó del interés por parte del Inter de Milán y Liverpool, de buscar los servicios de “Gio”.

Según información de la Cadena SER, el jugador no ha tenido el nivel esperado con los "Spurs", por lo que su regreso a tierra ibérica podría ser una opción rentable.

La buena actuación que ha tenido con la Selección Mexicana no le ha valido para ser tomado en cuenta más seriamente por el entrenador de la escuadra británica, Harry Redknapp y, por el contrario, el futbolista hasta el momento ha entrado sólo de cambio para algunos partidos, agregó el medio.

De hecho, el técnico hizo ver que el rendimiento de Dos Santos Ramírez había bajado su nivel debido a los constantes viajes que hace para participar en encuentros con la selección de su país, razón por la que sería colocado en el mercado de transferencias de invierno.

Giovani Dos Santos, de 21 años de edad, comenzó su carrera internacional en las filiales del Barcelona a los 13 años de edad, siendo traspasado en 2008 a Tottenham, el cual anteriormente ya lo había cedido al equipo inglés Ipswich Town (2009) y Galatasaray de Turquía (2010).

“L´Equipe”, Platiní habría llegado a un acuerdo con Blatter para que el helvético pudiera reelegirse y volver a ocupar el cargo que ostenta desde 1998.

Platini, quien jugó tres mundiales en su carrera (Argentina 1978, España 1982 y México 1986) fue nombrado consejero especial de Joseph Blatter, a la par de la elección de éste como presidente de la FIFA. En 2007, Michel Platini se convirtió en Presidente de la UEFA, aparte de ser miembro del comité ejecutivo de la FIFA desde 2002.

Por su parte, el sur coreano Chung Mong Joon, vicepresidente de FIFA, se erige hasta el momento como el único rival de Joseph Blatter para contender en las elecciones de Junio de 2011.
