OPINION

EL OBSERVADOR | www.el-observador.com

Obamcare (Affordable Health Care Act)

OBAMACARE (Affordable Care Act) is now the law of the land. The U.S. Supreme Court with its historic 5 to 4 vote has ruled that it is constitutional. This legislation is about health care insurance which is now unavailable to many Americans. What follows is an effort to communicate to individuals what it means locally. Understand that ObamaCare does not establish a national universal health care service. For example, the undocumented resident is not eligible nor are many non-citizens.

Everyone needs to understand that insurance companies can no longer deny coverage to anyone, despite ‘prior medical conditions’.

For example, in the past an individual with diabetes could be denied insurance.

ObamaCare requires that insurance companies now provide insurance coverage.

In addition, young adults and their parents need to take advantage of the provision requiring inclusion, by the parent’s health insurance, of a child up to age 26. The public will be getting more information about health and wellness from a proactive perspective of prevention, early detection and intervention.

This public health thrust will be about ensuring wellness rather than waiting to deal with disease. This new focus will be on prevention and early detection and intervention because that’s when health care costs can be kept low. Ultimately, health and wellness are personal responsibilities.

Much ado is made of the ‘mandate’ that applies to all.

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the “mandate” requiring everyone to purchase personal health insurance was legal ‘as a tax’.

This part of ObamaCare will not be applied until 2014 because the operating

Hilbert Morales EL OBSERVADOR

rules and regulations must be prepared, undergo public review and commentary, and then be issued. If you want to keep up with the process, go to the Federal Register on a regular basis.

It is here that the proposed rules and regulations will be published so that the public can review and comment.

Despite the efforts to simplify the IRS personal tax code, ObamaCare will make that effort more difficult and improbable.

Costs of health care insurance will be tax deductible unless Congress changes existing personal health care deductions.

Individuals and small businesses need to document all health insurance expenses in order to accurately take advantage of all IRS tax deductions allowed.

Small businesses are advised to join a local chamber of commerce. These organizations could form an advisory committee whose mission, on an ongoing basis, would be to assemble information available regarding health insurance. Businesses employing fewer than 50 employees need not provide health care insurance. However, ObamaCare provides for subsidies to enable keeping the cost of insurances at lowest reasonable cost levels. With some 250 million employees throughout the U.S.A., insurance products will be devised that are more competitive than what exists today. It is this volume of potential clients that will inspire much creative insurance policy for-

mulation which will become available at lower costs. In fact, ObamaCare provides for the formation of ‘insurance exchanges’ for these new insurance products.

Each participating state will be required to set up these marketplace exchanges where the private insurance companies can compete. Low premiums will result when all 250 million employees buy insurance.

This Supreme Court ruling gives the American health care system a chance to evolve as a work in progress. ObamaCare will pave the way for an orderly reform of America’s current dysfunctional health care system. Mental health services are included.

Employer health plans developed during the 1940’s are severely flawed. These do not cover the unemployed, disabled, and wards of the public. ObamaCare will establish insurance exchanges; require the individual mandate and provide subsidies to make health insurance affordable for low-income families. Presidential Candidate Mitt Romney was Governor of Massachusetts where a similar plan was adopted.

This is why the American public, especially its Latino component, must become involved in the re-election of President Obama. His opponent, Mitt Romney, has already clearly stated that his first act, if elected, would be to do away with all of ObamaCare which cares for the people rather than special interest’s profits.

The 99% must recall that President Obama is a former community worker who has experienced, and understands, the plight of the poor, the minority disadvantaged, and the unemployed. On November 6th, give President Obama four more years.

Vote Buying Boosts PRI Victory in México, but Voters Remain Skeptical Sharat G. Lin, reporting from Mexico City President, San Jose Peace and Justice Center

The Mexican presidential election of 1 July 2012 gave Enrique Peña Nieto of the PRI (Partido Revolucionario Institucional) an election victory over Andrés Mauel López Obrador of the PRD (Partido de la Revolución Democrática) by a margin of 6.5 percent. Unlike the razor-thin margin of 0.58 per cent of Felipe Calderón over Obrador in 2006, the 2012 election cannot be reasonably challenged on grounds of election fraud.

Nevertheless, the widespread awareness that the PRI was far more active in trying to buy votes for cash than the PRD or PAN (Partido Acción Nacional) raises citizens’ concerns about a return to the more notorious corruption and abuse of power by the PRI which has ruled Mexico for 71 years of its electoral history.

Mr. Obrador’s loss of support since 2006, though less than predicted by pre-election polls, is said to be due to his appearing to be a poor loser after his initial call for a recount. In addition, though his stand on the issues resonates with the majority of working Mexicans, he was a poor speaker during the televised presidential debates, often deviating from the essential issues.

Some have quietly expressed the need for a more charismatic presidential candidate of the Left in 2018.

The process of voting went smoothly on Sunday from 8:00am to 6:00pm in the vast majority of general polling places. Each polling place had election observers from the major parties and independent organizations to provide oversight against disenfranchisement or fraud in casting and counting ballots.

These observers were in place from the setting up of the polls through the sorting and counting of ballots.

Marcha YoSoy132 en el Monumento de la Revolución en México DF. Foto: Sharat Lin. However, there were also 902 special polling places nationwide where voters from any precinct were eligible to vote. By law all polling places were allocated 750 ballots of each type.

Tempers flared and vocal protests broke out as desperate voters feared they would be waiting the whole day or entirely denied their right to vote. Hundreds were finally turned away when poll workers announced that they had run out of ballots.

While the PRI has offered more money in return for favorable votes – typically 500 pesos or more, substantially more than other parties – this is nothing new in a country where buying of votes is a long-standing practice. A still more serious charge comes from voters reporting that the PRI had offered

3000 pesos for each voter identification card. These voters have requested anonymity for fear of reprisals.

The protests immediately before and after election day launched by the Yo Soy 132 Movement are a profound expression of youth opposition to any possible repetition of the police repression exercised by then governor of the State of México Peña Nieto in the Atenco protest in 2006.

But the movement encompasses broader demands for freedom of expression, and against buying of elections, media bias (particularly by Televisa), corruption, the politico-economic power of the ruling oligopoly, and ultimately the inequality created by capitalist development itself. Yo Soy 132 dreams and that a better world is possible.

LOCAL LATINO JUSTICES “One day my dad, who was a farm worker, brought home a TV which became a window to a whole new world totally unknown to me.”

—Judge Jesus Valencia Hilbert Morales EL OBSERVADOR

La Raza Roundtable (Victor Garza, Chair) had a special monthly meeting last Friday, June 29, 2012.

Six local Latino judges were the highlight of this meeting. A special effort was made to have as many high school students present as possible. Especially for those who were thinking about becoming a lawyer.

Christopher Arriola, Esq., Deputy District Attorney introduced each justice in order of seniority. Each Justice was asked to answer the question “Why did I become a lawyer?” Justice Miguel Marquez, Sixth Appelate Court, and Superior Court Judges, County of Santa Clara, were present: Judge Jesus Valencia; Judge Carrie Zepeda, Judge Javier Alcala, Judge Teresa Guerrero Daley, and Judge Hector Ramon.

What follows does not fully communicate the positive personal ambiance which each Judge projected as he/she briefly related their personal story: JUSTICE MIGUEL MARQUEZ was in college pursuing a computer science major at Stanford University. He redirected towards becoming a lawyer when a 1985 Proposition to make English the official language of California was on the ballot. This aroused his awareness that it was lawyers who took on public policy. He obtained a master’s degree from Harvard University and his UC Berkeley law degree. After some private practice experiences he went into public law and became the first Mexican American County Counsel, County of Santa Clara where his colleagues

encouraged him to apply for the vacancy at the Federal District 6 Appellate court.

Justice Marquez is the first Latino to sit on that court’s bench. He has presided over cases involving fundamental changes of emerging start-up companies located in San Mateo County.

JUDGE CARRIE ZEPEDA deals with juvenile justice issues. Judge Zepeda graduated from Yerba Buena High School, and then attended Stanford University. She had Judge LaDoris Cordell (ret.) as a mentor along with Professor Mendez, MECHA advisor. As a judge she looks for justifiable solutions to family and juvenile cases presented in court.

JUDGE JESUS VALENCIA attended San Jose State University and University of Santa Clara Law School. “One day my dad, who was a farm worker, brought home a TV which became a window to a whole new world totally unknown to me.” After the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy, The Reverend Martin Luther King, Presidential candidate Robert Kennedy and the Vietnam War, he decided to become a lawyer. Solutions required by the struggle for justice will not come from Washington, D.C. “We are blessed with a constitution which provides for justice and choice, if we correctly interpret it and follow its wisdom.” He believes that the solutions needed by juvenile cases involve the family, education, and rehabilitation in addition to the law.

Juveniles are fortunate to receive culturally sensitive justice from Judge Valencia.

JUDGE TERESA GUERRERO DALEY be-

came a lawyer when she realized that her sister was a victim of domestic violence.

She decided to become a lawyer on the side of law enforcement. “I knew what I did not want to do or become.” Judge Daley attended Community College as a single working mother and then San Jose State University and Lincoln Law School. She briefly worked for the California Drug Enforcement Agency. For 11 years she was the City of San Jose’s Independent Police Auditor.

JUDGE JAVIER ALCALA was a former Deputy District Attorney.

Judge Alcala attended ‘old’ Mt. View High School. He still lives in Mountainview, a few blocks from City Hall.

His older brother was often in trouble which led to the Mt. View police visiting his father often. Based on his observations, he decided to become a lawyer. Today he serves as a Judge in the court which deals with drugs and violence. Judge Alcala tries to apply rehabilitation and education/training rather than incarceration, though on occasion that is the only reasonable option. He advised the youth present to get an education and find a job which satisfies their passionate interest.

JUDGE HECTOR RAMON attended San Jose’s Andrew Hill H.S. and was given a scholarship to San Jose State University where he played baseball. He was admitted to the Harvard Law School.

He remembers his parents working hard to make his education possible. After working in the community in private practice as a lawyer in San Jose, he was appointed to the bench.

He currently hears Felony Criminal Trials and is very concerned with the negative impact of gangs and alcohol in our community.

All the above judges are highly regarded as being profesionally competent, evenhanded and meet fair justice.

Small Businesses: Add “Manage Online Presence” To Your To-Do List

A helpful tool can simplify the process of monitoring the online presence of a small business.

NAPS

Small- to midsized business (SMB) owners wear multiple hats, but the only one most ever wanted on

their heads was that of “successful business owner.” However, today’s SMB owners typically manage countless functions that fall outside, and can detract, from their core products or ser­v ices, including one they may not know is critical in today’s business landscape: managing their company’s online presence.

Data suggests an online presence makes good bu­ si­ness sense: According to Media­bistro, 50 percent of small-business owners have gained customers through social media.

Meanwhile, consumers increasingly prefer businesses to communicate with them online, as opposed to one-direction, traditional marketing methods like direct mail. The combination of these trends presents a sizable challenge for the SMB owner: With so many hats and so little time, how does the small business optimize and manage its online presence? Consider these tips: • Keywords are key.

SMBs should identify keywords that customers would utilize in an online search and incorporate them in their websites and their domains (e.g., www.raleighaccountingfirm.com), if possible. This ap­proach increases the chances that the URL will rank high on search result lists.

• Get social. “Go where your customer is” has never been truer. According to The Nielsen Company, the U.S. Internet user averages three times more minutes on social networks and blogs than on e-mail. Smart SMBs are participating in social networking sites where customers frequent, including obvious choices like Twitter and Facebook and fast-growing sites like Pinterest, LinkedIn, Foursquare and Yelp.

• Go ahead…ask. Because consumers place unparalleled trust in the opinions of other consumers, SMBs should ask satisfied customers to post reviews on social sites or write testimonials for their websites. Loyal customers will be happy to promote reviews and experiences via “share” buttons for Facebook and Twitter.

• Allow someone else to wear the hat. It can be helpful to use a tool such as Brandify, which simplifies the building, evaluating and monitoring of an SMB’s on­line brand. SMB owners can log on to the Microsoftsponsored site quickly and for free to receive a score of their company’s online presence. Based on the SMB’s online strengths and weaknesses, Brandify then recommends simple steps for improvement.

Cuatro motivos para visitar una biblioteca este verano Las bibliotecas públicas del país ofrecen actividades especiales en estos días calurosos GobiernoUSA.gov

Divertirse durante el verano no necesariamente significa hacer algo al aire libre.

A veces las actividades más gratificantes y enriquecedoras podrían ocurrir dentro de las cuatro paredes de las 123 mil bibliotecas públicas del país.

La razón es sencilla: las bibliotecas son una manera fácil, accesible y barata de entretenerse con libros y revistas, ver películas, aprender sobre mundos nuevos en varios idiomas y participar en eventos culturales como conciertos y exposiciones artísticas.

Para recibir todos los beneficios de una biblioteca se

necesita tener una tarjeta, la cual se puede obtener sin costo en cualquier biblioteca pública. Para aquellas personas que están buscando qué hacer este verano, las bibliotecas pueden ser una muy buena opción.

El Gobierno ofrece cuatro motivos para visitar una biblioteca: 1) Libros digitales y tecnología. Las bibliotecas se han adaptado a los cambios tecnológicos y muchas ahora ofrecen libros digitales que los usuarios pueden pedir prestados por un tiempo limitado y sin costo. Algunas bibliotecas incluso prestan el propio lector de libros digitales (e-reader), por lo que un usuario podría estar

Program Fills Critical Summer Learning Need SAN JOSE, CA

If you build a great math program, students will come.

And they’ll pick up new math skills and confidence and shed their fear of math.

That’s what the “Stepping Up to Algebra/Math Acceleration Program (SUTA/MAP)” has been giving students for the last four years. This summer, SUTA/MAP launched its 5th year starting June 18.

About 1,800 7th and 8th graders from 18 school districts across Silicon Valley are enrolled in the 4-week program, considered to be the most successful program in Santa Clara County.

The program emphasizes the goal of college, offering field trips to San Jose State and Santa Clara Universities to show students they

can achieve college. College students are employed as teaching assistants and mentors. A parent information night to tell families about college is included.

SUTA/MAP is offered free to students. The goal is to push these students to be eligible for collegeprep courses in high school and eventually college.

The Math Acceleration Program helps incoming 7th graders succeed in pre-Algebra, and SUTA prepares incoming 8th graders for Algebra I. Hispanic students as a group pose the greatest challenge to narrowing the student achievement gap. While they make up 36% of Santa Clara County students, only 18% of Hispanic students score at the proficient levels.

leyendo un libro electrónico bajo la sombra de un árbol en un día caluroso sin pagar un solo centavo. Además de libros tradicionales y digitales, uno también puede descargar libros de audio, música y videos. Debido a que muchas bibliotecas tienen sitios web, los usuarios pueden utilizar muchos de los servicios que ofrecen, incluyendo búsquedas especializadas, desde su hogar.

2) Contenido en español.

Generalmente las bibliotecas públicas cuentan con una amplia gama de libros en varios idiomas, pero especialmente en español.

Vale la pena consultar las colecciones extensas de libros, revistas y música en

español que ofrecen las bibliotecas de forma gratuita. Hay libros para adultos y niños, e incluso algunas bibliotecas ofrecen tutoría gratis en español para estudiantes que cursan clases de verano. Además de recursos en español, también se pueden acceder a libros y CD para aprender a hablar y escribir en inglés. ¡Quién se hubiera imaginado que una biblioteca pública también podría convertirse en un lugar para aprender otro idioma!

3) Programas y eventos para todas las edades. El arte y la cultura no solamente se experimentan a través de los libros, y por eso muchas bibliotecas patroci-

nan y organizan programas y eventos culturales como conciertos y exposiciones de arte, cine y fotografía.

Además, durante el verano muchas bibliotecas ofrecen programas especiales tanto para adultos como para niños, incluyendo clases de computación, lectura de cuentos para los pequeños, juegos divertidos con un ángulo educativo, actividades de lectura y más.

4) Recursos especializados. Para muchos, el Internet no es un lujo, es una necesidad. Las bibliotecas cuentan con centros de cómputo para quienes no tienen computadoras o Internet en casa o para quienes desean consultar el Internet en un

ambiente tranquilo y sin distracciones. Las bibliotecas también cuentan con personal especializado que puede ayudar a los usuarios a encontrar lo que necesitan o recomendar libros o recursos sobre prácticamente lo que sea, incluyendo respuestas a preguntas como ¿cuánto tiempo durará el verano?

Las bibliotecas ofrecen muchos servicios más, incluyendo bibliotecas rodantes (bookmobiles), clases de computación, y bancos de datos para buscar trabajo.

Bring the Family Back to the Table with Pulled Pork

Family Features

F

or families wanting to spend more time together during busy school schedules, pulled pork is a great meal solution because it demands so little of cooks in the kitchen. One batch of pulled pork is simple to prepare and can easily be repurposed in a mouthwatering variety of dishes your family can enjoy the entire week.

Bring the family together with this Herb Rub Oven-Braised Pulled Pork recipe that’s prepared low and slow in the oven. The tender, juicy pork is perfect on sandwiches one night, as a topping on fried rice the next, and as a hearty filling for DIY tacos the next. Simply prep a large roast in advance and enjoy quality time with your family, this week and beyond.

Herb Rub Oven-Braised Pulled Pork Prep time: 10 minutes Cook time: 2 3/4 to 3 1/4 hours Makes 8 to 10 servings

In small bowl, combine sage, thyme, salt, and rosemary. Rub mixture over all sides of meat, pressing to adhere (if meat is tied together with twine or netting, just rub seasoning right over it).

Transfer meat to a cutting board and let rest 10 to 15 minutes. Use two forks to shred meat into bite-sized pieces.

Moisten/season with cooking juices to taste.

2 teaspoons dried sage leaves

In large Dutch oven or large ovenproof skillet with a tightfitting lid over medium-high heat, warm the oil. Add pork and brown on all sides, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer meat to plate and set aside.

Serving Suggestions If you like, you can make this a stovetop braise, slowly simmering it on the stovetop instead of in the oven. And feel free to experiment with the amounts and types of herbs, or use your favorite herb blend.

“MEDICARE FOR ALL” BUS TOUR COMES TO SAN JOSE Sandy Perry Special to El Observador

On Monday, July 2 the Improved “Medicare For All” Bus Tour of California arrived at the Eastside Neighborhood Center in San Jose. It was sponsored by the Campaign for a Healthy California and California Nurses Association. This tour is promoting the idea that health care is a human right. Even after the US Supreme Court decision, there will still be three million Californians without health care.

The nurses provided an afternoon of free health screenings and an evening town hall meeting to discuss the future of health care in America in the wake of the Obama Affordable Care Act. Participants told stories of the cruelty and indignities they are suffering at the hands of for-profit insurance companies, and vowed to continue the battle until every person In America has the health care they deserve.

We have the power to enact our own single payer, improved Medicare for All

The bill to create this plan has already passed the California legislature twice and will be introduced again in 2013.

Después de 31 años, el VIH/ SIDA aún afecta a los hispanos de manera desproporcionada A treinta y un años desde que los Centros para el Control y la Prevención de Enfermedades (CDC, por sus siglas en inglés) informaron el primer caso de VIH/SIDA, esta condición mortal continúa afectando a los hispanos de manera desproporcionada. Los hispanos representan aproximadamente el 16 por ciento de la población de los Estados Unidos; sin embargo, constituyen el 20 por ciento de las personas que viven con la enfermedad, según datos de los CDC. Además de la falta de concientización, los

factores culturales aumentan el riesgo de la infección por el VIH entre los hispanos. CDC también señala que muchos hispanos enfrentan los mismos desafíos que otros grupos étnicos que contribuyen a que haya mayores tasas de infección por el VIH, incluidos los asuntos socioeconómicos asociados a la pobreza, las relaciones sexuales sin protección, el consumo de drogas inyectables, la falta de concientización sobre el estado de VIH, y las mayores tasas de enfermedades de transmisión sexual.

Torneo de fútbol de calle y la búsqueda de la siguiente leyenda Cinthia Rodríguez El Observador

El fútbol es uno de esos deportes que se juega a nivel internacional, pero los estadounidenses han tenido dificultad en aceptarlo con la misma pasión que el resto del el planeta. Pepsi y el torneo copa futbol de ca-

lle está tratando de cambiar esto. Ellos estarán dando inicio al verano pidiendo a los fans que muestren sus habilidades futbolísticas en sus torneos en la Pulga de San José del 14 al 15 de julio.

El torneo copa futbol es un torneo de dos días donde un equipo de cuatro juga-

dores se enfrentará a otros cuatro jugadores. El torneo dará inicio a las 9am y terminara a las 5pm. También habrá varias actividades para las familias que asistan.

Cada equipo está garantizado jugar tres partidos.

Los juegos serán de 20 minutos con 10 de medio tiempo y un minuto de descanso.

Hay diferentes divisiones a partir de los 6 años de edad, hasta los 18 años.

Hay una división para mujeres, hombres, y para hombres mayores de 30.

Todos los equipos recibirán medallas, pero los ganadores de los equipos de hombres y mujeres recibirán un premio en efectivo de $500.

Pepsi Clásico de Calle estará buscando al “mejor de mejor” para un equipo nacional, en la Pulga de San José el 14 y 15 de julio.

“Es rápido, es todo lo que de alguna manera el fútbol tradicional no es”, dijo Rick Moses, con el torneo. “Es realmente un estilo cada vez mayor de fútbol en Estados Unidos. Se juega en todo el mundo durante años, pero Estados Unidos está comenzando a conseguir una sensación por el y realmente me encanta”.

Este es el tercer año del torneo. Se juega en otras partes del estado. Todos los niveles y edades desde los seis años se les anima a participar. El registro en línea es requerido para el 9 de julio (www. s t r e e t c u p s o c c e r. c o m) .

Futbol de calle es fútbol estilo libre que se juega en el pavimento en la mayoría de los países. Es muy común y se juega demasiado.

Por lo general, se juega en una cancha más pequeña y es muy expresivo. Pepsi ha decidido tomar parte de este deporte bajo tierra.

El Pepsi Clásico de la Calle es el primer torneo donde el “mejor del mejor” en el fútbol callejero sale y demostrara que es superior al resto. El patrocinador del torneo está en una búsqueda de los mejores de California. Los cinco ganadores se convertirán en las Estrellas del torneo Pepsi Calle. Dos ya han sido seleccionados.

“Estamos buscando la habilidad individual”, dijo Pablo Estévez con Pepsi Clásico de la Calle. “En el fútbol tradicional, hay un conjunto de habilidades que un jugador posee, si se observa en todo el mundo, los mejores jugadores de fútbol tradicionales provienen de los barrios de la calle o urbano que realmente no tienen un campo, pero en realidad desarrollan movimientos hábiles con el balón, velocidad y movimientos de transición”.

El torneo se centrará en la habilidad del participante y Pepsi “swagger”, la persona que puede trabajar a una multitud y tiene un toque especial. En última instancia, serán elegidos dos jugadores más de Fresno o San José y el último jugador será la elección del pueblo.

Ese jugador será sometido a votación por Internet.

En San José, habrá entrenadores de Los Terremotos que calentarán a los participantes antes de dirigirse a la cancha. Allí, el jugador va a competir en un partido más lento durante seis minutos.

Los jueces del torneo de celebridades, de la personalidad del fútbol y modelo de Temryss Lane, Los Angeles Galaxy Omar González, y la leyenda del fútbol mexicano Claudio Suárez

prestará especial atención al jugador en la cancha.

Las familias pueden unirse a la diversión con juegos interactivos, regalos, comida local, y por supuesto Pepsi MAX para que los fans disfruten.

Los cinco ganadores recibirán un contrato con Pepsi. El anuncio formal del equipo se dará a conocer en Filadelfia en la Major League Soccer All Star Game. Van a hacer una serie de apariciones y luego se inicia su contrato.

Los cinco ganadores originales jugaran contra los mejores jugadores en otras ciudades importantes. Potencialmente, puede ser el despego por uno de los jugadores de la ciudad visitada.

“Tienen que realmente llevar su mejor partido el año que viene, si realmente quieren quedarse en el equipo, dijo Estévez.

El torneo está abierto a hombres y mujeres residentes legales del estado de California que tengan por lo menos 18 años de edad en el momento de la entrada. Pueden inscribirse hasta el día del evento.

Street soccer tournament and search for the next legend “We’re looking for individual skill,” said Paul Estevez, Pepsi Clasico de Calle. “In traditional soccer there’s a skill set that a player possesses. If you notice, worldwide the best traditional soccer players come from the street or urban neighborhoods that really didn’t have a field, but really develop skillful moves with the ball, speed, and transition moves.”

Pepsi Clásico de Calle will be looking for the best street soccer players on July 14 and 15 at San Jose’s Flea Market.

Cinthia Rodriguez El Observador

Soccer is one of those sports played internationally, but Americans have a hard time embracing it.

Pepsi and the Street Cup Soccer Challenge are trying to change that. They will be kicking off the summer by asking fans to bring their soccer skills to tournaments at the San Jose Flea Market on July 14 and 15.

The Street Cup Soccer Challenge is a two-day tournament where a team of four players will face other four players. The tournament will begin at 9am and wrap up by 5pm. There will also be plenty of activities for attending families.

Each team is guaranteed to play three games.

The games will be 20 minutes with 10 minute halves and 10 minute half-time.

There are different divisions starting with 6-year-olds, then 8-year-olds, up to 18 years. There’s a women’s open, a men’s open, and men’s over 30 divisions.

All teams get medals, but the winners of the men’s and women’s opens will receive a $500 cash prize.

“It’s fast, it’s off the wall, it’s everything in some ways that traditional soccer isn’t,” said Rick Moses with the Street Soccer Cup Challenge. “It’s really a growing style of soccer in America.

It’s been played all over the world for years, but America is starting to get a feel for it and really loves it.”

This is the third year for this tournament. It is also played in other parts of the state. All skill levels and ages above six are encouraged to participate.

Online registration is required by July 9 (www. s t r e e t c u p s o c c e r. c o m) .

The Pepsi Clasico de Calle is the first tournament where the “best of the best” in street soccer come out and prove they’re superior to the rest. The tournament’s sponsor is on a hunt for California’s best. The five winners will make up the Pepsi Calle All Stars. Two have already been selected.

The tournament will focus on the participant’s skill and Pepsi swagger; able to work a crowd; and has that certain something.

Ultimately they will chose two more players from Fresno or San Jose. The final fifth player will be the people’s choice. That player will be voted for online.

In San Jose, there will be coaches from the Earthquakes that will warm up the participants before heading to the cage. There, the player will compete in a very looserule game for six minutes.

The tournament’s celebrity judges, soccer personality and model Temryss Lane, Los Angeles Galaxy’s Omar Gonzalez, and Mexican soccer legend Claudio Suarez will pay close attention to the players in the cage. They will be looking for skills, how they carry themselves, and how they engage the audience.

Families can join the fun with interactive games, giveaways, local food, and of course Pepsi MAX for fans to enjoy.

The five winners will receive a contract with Pepsi.

A formal announcement of the team will be announced in Philadelphia at the Major League Soccer all star game. They’ll

do a series of appearances when their contract starts.

The team will be taken national where the 5 original winners will play the best players in other major cities. They can potentially be replaced by one of the players of the city visited.

The tournament is open to male and female legal residents of the state of California who are at least 18 years of age at the time of entry. They can register until the day of the event.

&A with Gabriel Iglesias

Osvaldo Castillo

El Observador

Every comedian has his or her own style of jokes to tell, and topics to discuss.

Gabriel Iglesias sticks to what he knows and having a good time. He recently took time to answer a few questions with El Observador.

Q: What made you decide to get into comedy?

A: I have always been told that I was a funny, entertaining person and have always been told to give comedy a try.

Q. How did you get your first gig?

A. I got my first gig by accident. I was at a concert and the person ,who was to entertain the crowd and introduce the bands, got sick.

So a friend of mine pretty much pushed me on stage and I became the MC of the event. I told a few jokes here and there, but I’m not sure if the crowd was laughing at the jokes or at me, because I was so nervous and my voice was really high.

Q. What is your comedy about?

A. My comedy is about my everyday life pretty much. I tell jokes about what it’s like being on tour, hanging out with my friends and even my dog. I don’t get political in my shows. I want my shows to just be fun.

Q. Who were some of your influences?

A. Robin Williams, Paul Rodriguez and a little bit of Eddie Murphy.

Q. What is some of the work that you’ve done?

A. I’ve made my rounds

on all the late night shows like Conan and Leno. I’m also in the new movie ‘Magic Mike’, if you can believe that.

Q. What are you working on now?

A. A lot of touring. I’m going to be recording a onehour special in December also.

Q. What is your impression of San Jose?

A. San Jose is a great town and I’ve had some great experiences there.

There is a bar called the Cinebar that I would go to after my show at The Improv. One time I was there and my girl was texting me asking me where I was and I replied “at Cinebar”. Unfortunately, the spell checker in my phone changed it to Cinnabon and she had a hard time figuring out where I was.

How Happy are your Feet?

W

Juan Carlos Miranda

hen I think of summer I think of long, hot days spent at the beach, family barbeques, and backyard gatherings at a friend’s house. Good times.

However, I also think of a number of good reasons to dress to impress—like I really need any—and to wear my favorite new pair of summer shoes. Just like clothes, shoes are designed according to each season—you wouldn’t wear a pair of sandals outside on a rainy day, would you? If you do, there is something definitely wrong with you.

Here I present to you some of the hottest styles in shoe wear for this hot summer season.

The Sexy Summer Wedge This style is perfect for just about every summer outfit in your closet. They are fun, sexy, and versatile, but above all they are super comfortable. You can wear these shoes to showcase your gams because they make them look leaner and longer. Pair them with super short shorts or a flowy summer dress.

You can even wear them with some white or colored jeans. With these wedges, who needs a runway?

The Cool Canvas I am usually against women wearing flat shoes—since must fun shoes are made for women—but I know how difficult it must be to wear 5-inch heels most of the time. Therefore, I have chosen the cool canvas shoes for summer essentials. Nowadays everyone has taken to wearing these fun shoes because they are not only stylish but comfortable and they come in a wide selection of colors, patterns, and brands. You could even get a pair for ten bucks!

The Sultry Chunky Heel These heels are the new “it.”

FASHION

EL OBSERVADOR | www.el-observador.com

Everyone who knows about style wears them, from celebrities, to models and fashionistas. They are tall, comfortable, and can literally make anyone feel sexy. How many pairs do you have?

The All American Every once in a while there is a shoe that defines a generation. For today’s generation I would have to choose the all American TOMS. These shoes are not only well made but they are also stylish and come in all sorts of colors, patterns and materials. But I think the coolest part is when you purchase a pair, TOMS donates another to a child in need.

The Timeless Cork Speaking of shoes that define a generation, I really do believe cork heels defined the seventies. Who could forget the shoes Rachel McAdams wore in the romantic film The Notebook (and don’t even say you didn’t watch it because, unless you were living under a rock, it was the best romantic movie ever).

They were cute and fun.

The Dancer’s Flats Ballet flats are not just for dancers anymore. Shoe designers have come up with their own take on the minimalistic shoe and have added their

own spice to their designs.

Just like the cool canvas, ballet flats are made in different colors and there are even some that were made to be worn at the office.

These flats look good on anyone from tall to short, skinny and...well, not so skinny. Some designers have even made a fortune with their own versions (cough, Tory Burch, cough), but you obviously don’t have to splurge—unless you want to—on a pair of these since there is a wide variety of labels offering their own versions.

The Minimalistic Sandals Simple straps do not always mean boring. When you wear a cute pair of strappy sandals they not only show your fabulous pedi but they also make your feet look gorgeous. Think of it this way, strappy sandals are a shrine to your feet.

A girl can never have too many shoes and, in case you needed an excuse to go do some retail therapy, these styles are summer must haves. So get out there and flex your credit card muscles but remember to do it responsibly...ugh, who am I kidding, splurge all you want, your feet deserve it!

The Amazing Spider-Man SAVAGES In theaters July 6 En todos los cines del país en 3D el 3 de julio The Amazing SpiderMan es la historia de Peter Parker (Garfield), un estudiante marginado de escuela secundaria que fue abandonado por sus padres cuando niño, y que ha sido criado por su tío Ben (Sheen) y su tía May (Field). Como la mayoría de los adolescentes, Peter está tratando de descubrir quien es y como ha llegado a ser la persona

que es hoy. Peter también está descubriendo su camino en su primer romance de escuela secundaria, Gwen Stacy (Stone), y juntos deben lidiar con el amor, el compromiso, y los secretos. Cuando Peter descubre un misterioso maletín que perteneció a su padre, da inicio a una búsqueda para comprender la misteriosa desaparición de sus proge-

nitores, lo que lo lleva directamente a Oscorp y al laboratorio del Dr. Curt Connors (Ifans), el ex-socio de su padre. Mientras que SpiderMan se lanza a un enfrentamiento directo con el alter ego de Connors, el Lagarto, Peter tendrá que tomar decisiones que transformarán su vida usando sus poderes y dando forma a un destino que lo convertirá en héroe.

Laguna Beach entrepreneurs Ben (Johnson), a peaceful and charitable Buddhist, and his closest friend Chon (Kitsch), a former Navy SEAL and ex-mercenary, run a lucrative, homegrown industry—raising some of the best marijuana ever developed. They also share a one-of-a-kind love with the

extraordinary beauty Ophelia (Lively). Life is idyllic in their Southern California town…until the Mexican Baja Cartel decides to move in and demands that the trio partners with them.

When the merciless head of the BC, Elena (Hayek), and her brutal enforcer, Lado (Del Toro), under-

estimate the unbreakable bond among these three friends, Ben and Chon— with the reluctant, slippery assistance of a dirty DEA agent (Travolta)—wage a seemingly unwinnable war against the cartel. And so begins a series of increasingly vicious ploys and maneuvers in a high stakes, savage battle of wills.

La fuente de la juventud Mario Jiménez El Observador

Algunas personas piensan que el Yoga es una religión, pero no lo es. Es una antigua disciplina física y mental considerada como la fuente de la juventud, que le permite a su practicante observar la vida de una manera saludable y sobre todo, apacible. La palabra “yoga” se deriva del sánscrito y significa unión; unión del cuerpo y espíritu.

La paz, la buena salud y la estabilidad emocional, son elementos indispensables para tener una vida armoniosa. Se sabe que un cuerpo sano está ligado a una mente sana, el ejercicio físico promueve una buena salud en

general. El yoga consiste en una serie de ejercicios y posturas llamadas ‘asanas”, las que enfatizan la movilidad y flexibilidad de todo el cuerpo, haciendo uso al mismo tiempo de ejercicios respiratorios.

La intención principal de la práctica del yoga, es desarrollar el control de la mente sobre el cuerpo y así alcanzar una actitud emocional estable y adecuada, que dirige paulatinamente a su practicante a una elevación espiritual.

Los ejercicios del yoga pueden realizarse a cualquier edad. Al practicarle de manera periódica se promueve la buena salud, el control del peso, la relajación y eliminación del estrés. Y por si fuera poco, el yoga ayuda a combatir la depresión, excluir los hábitos dañinos, luchar eficazmente contra la obesidad y promover el “rejuvenecimiento”.

La práctica del yoga debe iniciarse de manera gradual, en cortos períodos de tiempo y con intervalos de descanso. No debe abusarse del tiempo que duran las posturas porque se trata de proveer relajación y no ago-

tamiento.

La respiración pausada, profunda y rítmica se considera esencial cuando se realizan las posturas del yoga.

El yoga ha tomado auge en los últimos años gracias a que muchas figuras públi-

17

cas, quiénes han dado fe y testimonio que la práctica del Yoga es una “fuente de juventud”, porque les ayuda a prevenir enfermedades, perder peso, elevar la autoestima, mantener una buena condición de salud y vivir de manera plena y feliz.

Reconoce Vicente Fernández que nunca ha disfrutado a su esposa Notimex Santiago

El cantante mexicano Vicente Fernández reconoció en entrevista con un canal de televisión chileno que, producto de su amplia trayectoria artística, nunca ha disfrutado a su esposa, ni a su familia completa.

En diálogo con Canal 13, Fernández, quien ofrecerá el próximo domingo un concierto en Santiago de Chile, indicó que “nunca he disfrutado a mi mujer ni ella a mí, porque yo me dedico a cantar, yo vivo para cantar.

“Yo no canto para vivir, entonces por vivir para cantar me olvidé de vivir con mi mujer, con mis hijos y con mis nietos”, aseveró el destacado intérprete mexicano, quien en febrero pasado anunció su retiro de los escenarios.

Inicia Julieta Venegas en París gira por Europa Notimex París

La cantante mexicana Julieta Venegas inició en París con un exitoso concierto una gira veraniega de 15 conciertos por Francia, España y Alemania, la última antes de la salida de su próximo disco.

Cantante mexicano Vicente Fernandez.

El popular “Chente” Fernández realiza su “tour” “Mi despedida”, en el marco del cual llegará por primera vez a la capital chilena el próximo fin de semana.

Indicó que “siempre he estado con ganas de ir a

Chile”, pero dijo que nunca lo habían contratado para una actuación en este país sudamericano, tras lo cual aseguró que “espero que el público chileno me quiera con el cariño que le tengo sin conocerlo”.

Alrededor de 600 personas asistieron a la sala con forma y decoración circense, donde la tijuanense tocó durante algo más de hora y media un repertorio de canciones de su más reciente disco “Otra cosa” y del resto de su discografía.

Entre otras “Amores platónicos”, “Debajo de mi lengua” y las clásicas

La cantante mexicana Julieta Venegas, ofreció un concierto en el ‘Cabaret Sauvage’ de París.

“Limón y sal”, “Me voy” y “Eres para mí”, así como una versión de “Sin documentos” de Los Rodríguez.

La cantante, quien viaja acompañada de su bebé, expresó su ilusión por tocar particularmente en Alemania, país en el que solo ha estado en una ocasión y en el que tiene curiosidad por conocer la reacción del público hacia su música.

“Esta gira era para finiquitar en forma el anterior disco. Además, pues increíble. Nunca he estado apenas en Alemania. Sólo he estado en Colonia el año pasado y ahora voy tocar en seis ciudades. Me sorprendió”, dijo.

La gira concluirá el próximo 30 de julio e incluye, previamente a Alemania.
