HeadlinesCounty to receive support from California Pay for Success InitiativeThe County of Santa Clara announced that the California Pay for Success Initiative, a joint project of Nonprofit Finance Fund and The James Irvine Foundation, selected the County’s Pay for Suc-cess Initiative as one of five recipients of financial and technical as-sistance support. Pay for Success is performance-based contracting within the social sector, where the government pays only if results are achieved. This innovative financing model will be used to address two challenging issues for which the County is looking for real, sus-tainable solutions – acute mental health and chronic homelessness.

Legislation seeks UC and CSU guidelines to allow computer sci-ence courses to meet core admissions requirements A bill to al-low high school advanced computer science courses to be counted towards core college admissions requirements was approved today by the Senate on a unanimous bipartisan vote of 37 to 0. SB 1200, by State Senator Alex Padilla (D-Pacoima) calls on the UC and CSU to provide guidelines for high school computer science courses that would satisfy a math subject matter requirement for undergraduate admissions. The bill will now go to the Assembly for consideration.

Nueva Encuesta: 4 de cada 10 adolescentes nunca pensaron en el embarazoEl 39% de los adolescentes dice que nunca pensaron en lo que sería su vida si provocasen un embarazo o quedasen embara-zadas, según los resultados de una nueva encuesta nacional publicada con anticipación al Día Nacional que cada año patrocina la Campaña Nacional de la Prevención del Embarazo en Adolescentes. Además, el 79% de los adultos cree que se necesitan mayores esfuerzos en sus comunidades para prevenir el embarazo en los adolescentes. La tasa nacional de embarazos en adolescentes ha disminuido un 44% mien-tras que, desde principios de 1990, la tasa de natalidad descendió un 52%. Se ha observado un drástico descenso en los 50 estados de la nación y en todos los grupos raciales y étnicos, puesto que la tasa de embarazos en adolescentes disminuyó un 40% y la tasa de natalidad, un 56% entre las latinas adolescentes.

He estado pensando toda la semana en lo que les quie-ro decir a todas las madres en su día especial. No soy una mamá. Yo no tengo una comprensión real de lo que significa criar a otro ser hu-mano, pero supongo que es increíble.

A mi edad mi madre ya es-taba criando tres niños. Mi hermanita todavía era un brillo en los ojos de mi padre. Ella está a punto de cumplir 19 años. Se podría decir que mi mamá puede descansar pero ella sólo acaba de co-menzar.

Mi otra hermana se convir-tió en una madre soltera ado-lescente hace unos tres años. Fue una gran sorpresa para nosotros, pero cuando pen-samos en ella nos encanta el pequeño paquete de alegría que ha ido creciendo en una pequeña versión de mi her-mana. Es muy interesante estar presente y ver mi mamá

criarla. Tengo una mejor idea del tipo de madre que ella realmente es.

Es asombroso el tipo de en-lace de un niño y su madre. Es casi irrompible. He toma-do una clase del desarrollo del niño y aprendí lo funda-mental de las etapas pero es completamente diferente po-der verlo.

A veces me sorprende mi sobrina. Ella es inteligente, llena de energía, y súper lin-da. Veo a mi hermana en ella, no sólo físicamente, sino su comportamiento. Es fantás-tico el tipo de ambiente que un niño crea.

Hay tantos tipos de ma-dres. Cualquier mujer que esta presente en la vida de un niño y ofrece la seguridad de un hogar se merece ese títu-lo. Para aquellos cuidadores y personas que guían a otro ser humano durante toda su vida también.

Mi madre haría cualquier cosa por sus hijos y actúa de la misma manera con mi sobrina. Estoy segura de que hay muchas madres que ha-rían cualquier cosa por sus hijos y les quiero desear un feliz Día de las Madres en especial a mi hermana y mi madre.

¡Te Quiero Mucho Mom!

OPINION

Remember that this is a ‘‘Top Two” Primary Election, Tues-day, June 3, 2014. Under the Top Two election system, can-didates are listed on the same ballot regardless of their party preference. This includes all candidates for Congress, state-wide executive offices, CA Legislature, county supervisors, city council and other local ‘to-be elected’ candidates.

Regardless of what party preference you indicated on your voter registration form, the registered voter can vote for any candidate. The two candidates receiving the most votes -- re-gardless of party preference -- move on to the general election campaign scheduled for the General Election Day, Tuesday, November 4, 2014. When a candidate receives 50% plus one votes on Primary Election day, Tuesday, June 3rd, 2014, then that candidate is deemed ‘elected to office’. If the vote is less than 50%, then only the top two candidates, who have re-ceived the highest and second highest number of votes, move on to continue to campaign for ‘elected office’ until the General Election Day, Tuesday, November 4, 2014 when the candidate receiving the most certified votes is deemed ‘elected to office’.

To vote on June 3rd, citizens may register until May 19th. One may vote in one of three convenient ways: By mail; Early, or at your local community poll. Do vote because that makes you an elected official’s supporter. Your vote is your voice. And vote in your own best interests.

EARLY VOTING begins on May 5, 2014 at the Registrar of Voter’s Office, 1555 Berger Drive, Building 2, San Jose, CA 95112. Phone: 408-299-VOTE (8683); 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Monday through Friday; EARLY VOTING CENTERS will be open Saturdays and Sundays, May 24-25; and May 31-June 1 at Registrar of Voter’s Office and from noon to 5:00 PM at the following community libraries: Campbell, Gilroy, Los Altos, Milpitas, and Tully Community Branch Library, 880 Tully Road, San Jose, CA 95111.

Here are Hilbert’s recommendations. If you favor a different candidate, then do vote your own choice. Remember that local governance is a ‘billion dollar enterprise’ which is sup-posed to be ‘governed for the people, by the people and with the people’ and is funded by your paid taxes. If you do not vote, you may have helped special interest to prevail. Here are the recommendations as compiled by Publisher Hilbert Morales.

Three Silicon Valley Career Technical Education stu-dents won gold medals and were named best in the state in their field at the SkillsUSA State Competition held in San Diego, April 24-27. A total of 13 high school and adult students won medals which included seven silver and three bronze medals.

Gold medal winners Chris-topher Skoff, from Silicon Valley CTE’s Precision Ma-chining (Leigh High School); Elliot Hickle from Silicon Valley CTE’s Heating, Air Conditioning and Ventilation (Almaden Valley Christian School); and Eric Allustiarti from Silicon Valley’s CTE’s Truck Mechanics (Santa Te-resa High School) will move onto the SkillsUSA National Competition in Kansas City, June 23-27.

“Our students did very well at the State Competition,” Silicon Valley CTE SkillsUSA advisor and Truck Mechan-ics, Instructor, Mike Cortese said. “Silicon Valley CTE’s students were very profes-sional and showed that they have the skills needed to suc-ceed in today’s competitive workforce.”

MetroED Superintendent said that the students were “very proud” and “full of smiles” while standing on-

stage to accept their awards. She added that, ““I was so impressed with how pro-fessional all of our students conducted themselves at the competition. It is a true re-flection of our instructors.”

In addition to their gold medals, Allustiarti was awarded an $8,500 scholar-ship to Wyotech and snap on tools, gold Medal winner, Skoff, took home an iPad mini and a die cast car, and Hickle was awarded safety gear and air conditioning gauges.

Jason AldermanPRACTICAL MONEY

In today’s world of Internet banking, smartphone shop-ping apps and web-based ac-cess to investment accounts, it’s easy to forget that billions of people around the world – including millions in our own country – lag far behind when it comes to accessing even the most rudimentary financial management tools.

Indeed, according to the World Bank:

• Approximately 2.5 billion adults worldwide don’t have a formal banking account.• In developing economies, only 41 percent of adults have bank accounts (compared to nearly 90 percent in high-income countries).• In developing countries, the wealthiest 20 percent are more than twice as likely to have an account than the low-est 20 percent.• There’s a gender inequality as well: 46 percent of men in

poorer countries have a for-mal account, while only 37 percent of women do.

These statistics helped form the backdrop for the eighth annual Financial Literacy and Education Summit hosted by the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago and Visa Inc.

Renowned U.S. and interna-tional financial experts led lively discussions around the theme, “Providing Financial Literacy Resources to the Un-banked and Underbanked.” Approximately 1,500 partici-pants in 50 countries attend-ed or watched the live online telecast.

Central to the discussions was the underlying question: “Is financial education impor-tant for a segment of the pop-ulation that is largely exclud-ed from formal financial ser-vices?” According to Keynote Speaker Bill Sheedy, EVP, Corporate Strategy, M&A and Government Relations, Visa, and the other panelists, the answer is an unqualified “yes.”

“Providing these adults with useful, scalable and acces-sible financial services is just one piece of the puzzle,” said Sheedy. “They need to know how to use these products wisely and have the skills and confidence to manage their money soundly.”

“The only way we can be suc-cessful in bringing these 2.5 billion people into the eco-nomic mainstream is to pro-vide them with financial edu-cation long before they ever acquire account numbers.”

Bottom line: Tremendous technological advances are being made around personal financial management. Our challenge is to find ways to bring those tools – and basic financial services – to vast populations of underserved individuals.

A parallel challenge is to continue developing and dis-tributing financial education materials that enable children and adults to understand how to manage their money.

(STATEPOINT)

Despite the time commit-ment and financial invest-ment that come with the territory, more than 25 mil-lion people nationwide have opted to start a microbusi-ness – a company with five or fewer employees.

One in every 10 Ameri-cans works in a microbusi-ness, according to the Sam’s Club/Gallup Microbusiness Tracker, a quarterly survey of more than 850 microbusi-ness owners that provides insights into their economic and emotional concerns. The Sam’s Club survey indicates that women are opening 46 percent of today’s Main Street businesses – from res-taurants to daycare centers – far greater than the number

of women owned businesses that are over 20 years old.

“I’ve never worked harder in my life or felt more re-warded,” says Molly Beasley of Fairhope, Alabama, own-er of Give a Dog a Bone, a Do-It-Yourself dog washing company. “This business is my passion. There’s a lot of satisfaction in knowing you are providing a valuable, af-fordable service in your com-munity.”

After more than two years working 20 to 40 hours a week at a DIY dog wash in California, Beasley relocated to Alabama and found her-self dreaming about opening her own dog wash. Eventual-ly, she decided the timing was right to take the entrepre-neurial leap and she hasn’t

looked back. Since launching Give a Dog a Bone in 2012, Beasley caters to customers Monday through Sunday and spends her downtime thinking about ways to grow the bottom line.

Indeed, growth in micro-businesses has been driven largely by high personal sac-rifice yet overall job satisfac-tion, according to the survey:

• Over 60 percent of mi-crobusiness owners have fi-nanced their businesses from personal savings and nearly as many (55 percent) say hav-ing access to cash reserves is a major issue.

• One in three microbusi-ness owners (31 percent) depend more on second jobs for their personal income than on the business they

launched.• Yet 69 percent of micro-

business owners feel they have the ideal job.

Amidst these findings, one question bubbles to the sur-face – how can entrepreneurs maintain their passion while dealing with long hours and increasing budget demands? Beasley provides some tips:

• Embrace Perspective: No matter how much you love your company, there will be days when balancing the books creates anxiety. Re-mind yourself what fueled you to launch your business.

• Find Balance: Sometimes it might seem impossible to relax, but devoting even 60 minutes weekly to non-business related activities will help you recharge.

• Become Resourceful: Find ways to save money, time and energy. Try multitasking, such as purchasing business supplies while waiting for a prescription to be filled, or

patronizing retailers with special early shopping hours for business owners. Con-sider streamlining home ex-penses by eliminating cable or cooking at home.

• Make Changes: Stay moti-vated by experimenting with new methods and tools. At-tending trainings or online webinars about your indus-

try can help re-ignite your creativity and even lead to business growth.

In a recovering economy, it’s no surprise microbusinesses are growing. For many, the job satisfaction is worth the time and financial invest-ments.

AMERICAN COUNSELING ASSOCIATION

It isn’t news that America has a weight problem. Almost daily, the media are full of weight loss tips while millions of dollars are spent on special diet plans, and yet the prob-lem isn’t disappearing.

For many people the prob-lem may be not so much what their food choices are, but rather why they eat. Research has found that stress-related eating is one of the most im-portant reasons for overeat-ing.

Eating when faced with stress is a natural reaction. Many foods affect our moods and feelings. Some may re-mind us of better, simpler times (think comfort foods), or they may actually bring chemical reactions that make us feel better (think sugar high), at least for a short time.

Unquestionably, we live in a stressful world. From news reports of tragedies, to family issues, to the daily traffic jams we may experience, stress is a common occurrence and one that many of us deal with by reaching for something to eat. Doing so takes our mind off our tension and stress and leaves us feeling better. And so we do it, often without think-ing, until that bathroom scale tells us something is wrong.

So how can you avoid using food as a

stress reliever?

Start by focusing not so much on what you’re eating, but when and why you’re eat-ing. Experts advise keeping a diary for a few days and re-cording what you eat, when you eat and what you’re feel-ing at the time. What you may find is that, without realizing it, you’ve been snacking, of-ten unhealthily, not at times

when you’re really hungry, but simply when you’re feeling stressed. A next step is accept-ing that the food you’re eating doesn’t make your stress or problems go away, and may even be increasing your stress as you add on extra pounds.

This is the time to start ana-lyzing the sources of stress in your life and seeing what you might do to reduce or man-age that stress. Consider non-food related activities, like exercising, reading, gardening or similar relaxing activities. Often, simply being aware of what is triggering your stress-related eating is enough to help you avoid it.

It isn’t easy to overcome stress-related eating, but it can be done. If you find that your eating issues are serious enough to be affecting your health, talk to your family physician or consider consult-ing a professional counselor who specializes in this area.

Veronica T. Avendaño EL OBSERVADOR

For most in their early 20s, working full time and going to school full time is not an uncommon story. 22-year-old Cynthia Moctezuma had to handle a full load of class-es, and work, while battling cancer. On October 5, 2010, she was diagnosed with Leu-kemia.

Leukemia is a type of cancer in the blood or bone marrow in which there is an abnor-mal increase of white blood cells. In comparison to other types of cancers, leukemia di-agnosis is relatively rare, with an estimated 52,380 new cases in 2014 making it low on the list of common types of cancer. Hispanic women account for 8.7 percent of new cases per 100,000 per-sons.

Moctezuma noticed she was ill when she realized that she could no longer complete the simple task of going out-side and taking a walk. She brushed it off, assuming she was sick.

She was unable to stand for long periods of time, some-

thing which was required by her employer at the time. Moreover, she was unable to hold down any food.

“I was really stubborn,” said Moctezuma. “I never liked doctors. I would never go to the doctor. If I had a fever, I’d take care of it myself. If I had sore muscles, I’d just take care of it myself.”

After some coaxing from her mother, she finally went in for a check-up. Original-ly, she was diagnosed with anemia. “I got a blood test a few days later and they told me I had leukemia. They called me over the phone and rushed me to emergency,” said Moctezuma.

From that point on, Mocte-zuma’s daily routine changed. Everything had to be steril-ized. Visitors had to disinfect their hands and have a clean bill of health before entering her room. Children especially were discouraged unless they had a clean bill of health. Moctezuma recalled certain relatives were barred from visiting altogether.

“I wouldn’t be as active as I was before; no playing

sports, nothing like that,” said Moctezuma. “I was basically secluded from everybody for a while.” If she needed to go outside, she was required to wear a mask to prevent ex-posure to illnesses. During treatment and post-treat-ment her diet was restricted. Even today, she still follows her strict diet and exercise routine.

But even the appropriate precautions could not pre-vent all symptoms.

“There was a point, and a period of time, where my right side of my body went numb and I wasn’t able to walk. I was paralyzed.” said Moctezuma. “I was afraid that I wasn’t going to be able to walk again.”

Despite always feeling fa-tigued, she graduated from cosmetology school and found employment as a styl-ist. “I know it’s hard, but it doesn’t mean because you have cancer you can’t do much. Anything is possible, even with cancer. It doesn’t mean it’s going to break you. With or without cancer you can achieve anything.”

Reamwood and Vienna to Close Temporarily

San JoseCALIFRONIA

The Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VTA) will be shutting down two light rail stations and the segment of track in between in Santa Clara to help speed up construction of the Santa Clara Pocket Track, an ex-tra track that will hold the trains needed to meet the

anticipated increases in rid-ership resulting from Levi’s Stadium and VTA’s extension of BART to Silicon Valley in 2017.

The 9-day closure of the Reamwood and Vienna sta-tions and the light rail tracks, from Friday, May 16 at 11 p.m. to Monday, May 26 at 4 a.m., will facilitate construction efficiencies, allowing crews to work extended hours to complete a large portion of the construction for the proj-

ect. Without the closure, the work would have to be done over a series of weekends and the completion date for the necessary improvement would be delayed.

Passengers will still be served, but should allow an extra 15 minutes of travel time. VTA will substitute light rail ser-vice to those two stations with bus service. That means passengers coming from either direction will get off light rail at Fair Oaks or Old Ironsides and onto a bus that will stop near both shuttered stations. Those who need to go beyond these stations can transfer back to light rail at Old Ironsides or Fair Oaks to continue their journey. See the map above for more in-formation.

The pocket track allows VTA to keep trains “in its pocket” without impeding trains in

Broad coalition urges DHS to let California

move forward with creating a driver’s li-

cense that provides the greatest protections for the state’s immi-grant communities.

LOS ANGELES

Drive California, a state-wide coalition composed of a broad range of civil and immigrants’ rights groups including California Immi-grant Policy Center (CIPIC), Presente, the ACLU of Cali-fornia, Services, Immigrant Rights, and Education Net-work (SIREN), and TODEC-Training Occupational De-velopment Educating Com-munities Center, strongly object to Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) refusal to let California move forward with creating a driv-er’s license that protects im-migrant communities from discrimination.

The driver’s license de-

sign submitted to DHS and

agreed upon in AB 60, “The Safe and Responsible Driver Act” would include a “DP” on the front and “Not for of-ficial federal purposes” on the back.

Unfortunately, DHS is in-

sisting that the license de-sign include a substantially more prominent distinguish-ing mark on the front. In response, Drive California issued the following state-ment:

“DHS has in other regards

demonstrated flexibility and pragmatism in implement-ing the REAL ID Act of 2005, but is taking an inex-plicably hardline position by rejecting California’s good faith effort to design a AB 60 driver’s license that is compli-ant with the Act.

We are baffled that DHS

has actively tried to thwart protections in a law Cali-fornia passed that carefully balances compliance with federal law and ensures the greatest protections for community members. DHS

maintains that in order for federal officials to distinguish the AB 60 license from other licenses, the marking must be substantially more promi-nent on the front of AB 60 li-censes. Does the agency have so little faith in TSA employ-ees that it doubts their ability to distinguish a license that clearly states ‘Not valid for of-ficial federal purposes’ from one that does not?

Members of the Drive Cali-

fornia coalition will continue our conversations with DHS and the state of California to ensure that AB 60 driver’s li-censes both comply with the REAL ID Act, and protect community members.

California must do the right

thing and ensure that all its residents are protected from discrimination by anyone who may see the license, such as landlords, grocery store clerks, or other non-govern-mental actors. It would be a shame to let DHS push Cali-fornia into doing anything short of that.”

service. The track can hold three, 3-car trains that can be deployed to meet heavier demand, allowing the system to function more efficiently and minimize delays for pas-sengers. With the shutdown, the construction will be com-pleted in time for the first pre-season game at Levi’s Stadium, which means VTA

will have trains ready to meet the increased service demand from stadium-goers.

The pocket track is part of VTA’s Light Rail Efficiency Program, a series of projects aimed at making light rail run faster, offer better con-nections and improve service for riders.

Si les gusta admitirlo o no, las madres de todo el planeta son de alguna manera como su madre. También hay las que trabajan activamente para inculcar las tradiciones de sus antepasados. Cada vez más, las madres están trans-mitiendo sus creencias y cos-tumbres a sus hijos. Es una tarea bastante fácil para tres madres del este de San José.

“Somos mexicanos y tene-mos que transmitir nuestras raíces a las nuevas generacio-nes. Ese es el valor más fuerte de todos nosotros”, dijo Gua-dalupe Moctezuma.

Guadalupe es hija única criado por su madre soltera. Su madre se vio obligada a abandonar a su padre des-pués de haber sido objeto de abuso. Ella nunca volvió a ca-sarse. En cambio, le enseñó a su hija a ser una mujer fuerte e independiente. En el cami-no ella también le enseñó a tener fe y la importancia de la

educación. Algo que Guada-lupe le transmitió a sus hijos.

“Centrándose mucho en lo que significa la educación y por qué es importante tam-bién, se lo quiero enseñar a mi pequeña para que pueda ver que la educación es im-portante y podemos ser lo que queramos ser, siempre

y cuando estudie y trabaje duro por ello”, dijo Jessica Moctezuma, madre e hija mayor de Guadalupe.

Jessica se convirtió en ma-dre a los 19 años. Se casó, pero como su abuela terminó como madre soltera. Su pare-ja empezó a abusar del alco-hol y drogas. Entre todo eso aprendió a tener paciencia,

examinar opciones, estruc-tura, organización, mantuvo un trabajo, y todo para apo-yar a su hija.

Uno de sus mayores logros fue conseguir su bachillera-to en publicidad como una madre soltera. Recuerda que había un montón de críticos y hubo un momento en que tenía dos trabajos, a su hija,

y a su hermana combatiendo con el cáncer. Ella mira hacia atrás y no sabe cómo se las arregló para hacerlo, espe-cialmente si no hubiera sido por su familia.

“Mi mamá es mi roca. Si no fuera por ella nunca me hu-biera enterado sobre becas y la ayuda financiera”, dijo

Jessica. “Me empujó en con-seguir mi título y a cambio puedo inculcarle eso a mi hija”.

Guadalupe se graduó en 2008 con su bachillerato en desarrollo de niños, mientras trabajaba y criaba cuatro hi-jas con su esposo. Ella ha sido reconocida como la maestra del año. De niña aprendió a tocar la batería, bailó folclóri-co, y ahora se dedica al baile azteca con su hija Jessica.

“Yo quiero lo mejor para ellas. Que sean felices. Que las quieran a ellas aunque no me quieran a mí”, dijo Mar-garita Carillo, madre de Gua-dalupe, con una gran sonrisa en su rostro.

Toda madre ve una parte de ellas en sus hijos. Va más allá de las similitudes físi-cas. Aprenden cómo hacer las cosas de un cierto estilo, toman decisiones en base, a sus fuertes creencias. En su mayor parte, lo aprendieron de sus madres.

El amor de una Madre es lo más grande del mundo

El Primero de Mayo hubo una marcha para la justicia y el futuro del tema de la inmi-gración en los Estados Uni-dos. Conocido como “May Day” en inglés, y celebrado como el día del trabajo a través del mundo entero, la marcha que inició en el este de San José representaba no sólo a los trabajadores, tam-bién a los inmigrantes y sus familias.

Lleno de admiración, ale-gría, esperanza y enfoque, cientos de personas camina-ron casi tres millas entre las calles San Antonio y Santa Clara para hacer comentarios sobre el poder de la unión de la comunidad. A las cuatro de la tarde los grupos de fami-lias, organizadores y miem-bros de la comunidad salie-ron de la Iglesia de Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe para comenzar su marcha hasta la alcaldía de San José. Cien-tos marcharon, iniciando

su recorrido desde la iglesia con muchos más adiciona-les, uniéndose a la procesión rumbo a la alcaldía.

Habían niños con alas de mariposa de múltiples co-lores, tal vez representando las mariposas que emigran de Michoacán a Santa Cruz cada año. Hombres y Muje-res sostenían grandes letre-ros con dichos como “mere-cemos una reforma migra-toria ahora” y “Mi Pueblo no E Verify”. Grandes muñecos de tela y plástico se elevaban sobre la marcha, uno era un dragón con las letras “ICE” escritas sobre su lado. Detrás iba un muñeco de forma de caballero con una espada lla-mada “justicia”.

Lo más interesante sobre los letreros, y los que los car-gaban, eran los niños y sus mensajes sobre sus padres y la inmigración en gene-ral. En uno de ellos se leía:

“yo marcho por mis padres”. Otro, más político y dirigido al Presidente de los Estados Unidos decía “Don’t deport my momma Obama”, oh “no deporte a mi mamá, Obama”. Fue una marcha en la que los hijos de los inmigrantes y los niños que soportan el movi-miento están expresando sus

miedos, sus aspiraciones y más importante su voz. Una nueva generación acepta a los que están aquí sin juzgar, sino soportando su lucha para ser iguales con los quié-nes trabajan juntos cada día. Tal vez esta nueva voz podrá ayudar a llegar a la meta de los inmigrantes.

La marcha culminó en la al-caldía con música, danza az-teca, y los cientos de personas unidas para hablar sobre las historias, las metas y las solu-ciones que pueden empezar ahora.

Although we have come a long way in recent years with regard to the safety and sus-tainability of our food supply, we still have a long way to go. Toxic pesticides are still used on the vast majority of U.S. grown crops, while other hormone-disrupting chemi-cals are omnipresent in our food packaging. And exces-sive use of antibiotics in ani-mal agriculture threatens to render many human drugs ineffective. Environmental leaders would like to see the federal government step up and institute regulations banning such substances in our food supply, but for now it’s still up to individual con-sumers to make the right choices.

Fruits and vegetables grown on conventional (i.e. not or-ganic) farms make up some 96 percent of the produce we eat—and expose us to many pesticides. Two of the most toxic, chlorpyrifoss and DDT, are also quite common: 93 percent of Americans carry trace amounts of the former in their bloodstreams, while 99 percent of us have DDT residue coursing through our veins. These chemicals on our food can be harmful to adults, but health experts are even more concerned about what they are doing

to our kids. The non-profit Pesticide Action Network of North America (PANNA) points to recent studies showing that children with high pesticide exposures in the womb are at increased risk of being born with birth defects and are much more likely to encounter develop-mental delays, ADHD and autism spectrum disorders.

A related issue is the hor-mone-disrupting bisphenol-A (BPA) in our food supply as a result of its widespread use in the lining of cans and other food and drink con-tainers. “Nearly every person in America has some BPA in his or her body,” reports the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC), a leading green group. “And yet, this food-packaging chemical may cause problems in de-veloping fetuses, infants and children by altering behav-ior and increasing the risk of prostate cancer, as a govern-ment report concluded near-ly two years ago.” Other stud-ies have shown links between BPA exposure and a variety of human health problems including erectile dysfunc-tion, breast cancer, heart dis-ease and diabetes.

Another big hurdle to a safer, greener food system is our increasing reliance on antibiotics to fight bacterial infections in livestock. The

U.S. Food & Drug Admin-istration (FDA) has known since the 1970s that feeding large amounts of antibiotics to healthy livestock breeds antibiotic resistant bacteria, which can in turn render many of the antibiotics used for humans ineffective. In fact, antibiotic resistant in-fections are already killing 23,000 Americans each year. A 2012 FDA policy change calls on livestock producers to refrain from using anti-biotics to boost growth rates for pigs, cows, sheep and chickens, but it remains to be seen if the industry will toe the line or use loopholes to keep up the steady stream of antibiotics.

PANNA is one of many voices demanding an over-haul of how the FDA regu-lates our food supply. “We all want to believe that govern-ment agencies are protecting us and our food supply from chemical contaminants—but they are not,” reports the group. “They do not have the regulatory framework to do so.” The group would like to see the U.S. trade-in its policy that treats chemicals as “innocent until proven guilty” for something akin to Europe’s regulatory system, where a “health-protective precautionary approach” dictates which chemicals are approved for widespread use.

Green groups like the Pesticide Action Network of North America (PANNA) would like to see the U.S. trade-in its policy that treats chemicals as “innocent until proven guilty” for something akin to Europe’s regulatory system, where a “health-protective precautionary approach” dic-tates which chemicals are approved for widespread use.

MACLA, 510 South First Street, San José, CA 95113

San Jose CALIFORNIA

MACLA/Movimiento de Arte y Cultura Latino Amer-icana presents COSMOS CODEX, a commissioned, site-specific work by artist Vargas-Suarez UNIVER-SAL. This is MACLA’s first art exhibition dedicated to the relationship between art, astronomy and space research, the artist’s first solo show in California and the first time he has publicly ex-hibited sculptural objects.

Vargas-Suarez UNIVER-SAL (VSU) is primarily known for large-scale mu-rals, paintings, drawings, and sound recordings. He sources American and Rus-sian spaceflight programs, astronomy, and aerospace architecture to create com-missioned, studio-based and public artworks for muse-ums, galleries, private and public spaces. A major aspect of the exhibition is VSU’s

dialogue with scientists and other subject matter experts at the NASA Ames Research Center to gather information directly informing the art-works in the exhibition.

Vargas-Suarez is exploring concepts for retrieving ma-terials from Mars, asteroids and other orbiting bodies in our solar system with the intention of allowing artists, architects and designers ac-cess to these materials to expand and explore possi-bilities not available to them with traditional materials available here on Earth.

Mónica Ramírez-Mon-tagut, who curated the ex-hibition and is MACLA’s Se-nior Curator and Associate Director, says, “VSU’s work bridges space research and

astronomy through art and makes it intriguing and ac-cessible to people who have otherwise not been exposed to these new images and new vocabularies that are our contemporary and future language.”

The exhibition installa-tion in MACLA’s gallery will be set up as a mock “clean room,” or spacecraft process-ing facility, typically found at NASA operations centers. The installation will include hand-intervened new digital prints, murals, paintings, sculptural objects, and a vid-eo produced in collaboration with artist Barbora Berezna-kova.

MACLA, positioned in Sili-con Valley, a fertile area for art, science, and innovation,

is the ideal setting for COS-MOS CODEX. San José in particular is a place where artists, scientists, thinkers, and other creative minds can find ways in which sci-ence can inform art and vice-versa.

This is an opportunity for both disciplines to come to-gether to create unique proj-ects which engage a broad community of artists, sci-entists, students, and others to discuss questions which both art and science ask: what is our place in the uni-verse? How do we conceptu-alize, idealize, or represent our position here? How can art present scientific data in compelling ways and how can science be a source of in-spiration for artists?

La música es el lenguaje de las almas, por tal motivo ha sido considerada como terapia de motivación personal. Sus ritmos inspiran gozo, humor y fantasía. Es recomendable escuchar canciones y melodías con mensajes positivos que contagien entusiasmo. Los ritmos tropicales resultan óp-timos para levantar el ánimo y avivar el espíritu. La música armoniza el ambiente, alimen-ta de energía a los sortilegios y aleja las malas vibraciones; es además propicia para la concentración, la reflexión, la filosofía, el ejercicio físico y mental, las prácticas mágicas, la relajación y el amor.

Ha sido parte de la humani-dad desde las primeras eras cuando los huesos de animales prehistóricos eran convertidos en instrumentos musicales por el hombre primitivo; es preciso mencionar que existen tona-

das y baladas que son recono-cidas como “mal programado-ras” porque al escucharlas, sin darnos cuenta nos ponemos malhumorados, tristes o nos-tálgicos. Son fáciles de recono-cer porque el mensaje que nos dejan es derrotista o demasia-do dramático. Al escucharlas debemos ignorar su mensaje y decretar situaciones más posi-tivas y propicias.

Escuchar buena música es re-comendable para invocar am-paro espiritual, armonía, bue-nos deseos, dinamismo, buen humor, sensibilidad y felicidad.

Se ha comprobado que en aquellos lugares en donde se escucha con frecuencia música suave con mensaje efectivo, los niños desarrollan su intelecto y capacidad de aprendizaje rá-

pidamente y las plantaciones crecen con mayor exuberancia

La música es considerada como un derroche de emocio-nes que inicia su recorrido en el inconsciente colectivo de todos los seres humanos.

Diversos ritmos y sus benefi-cios Para atraer paz y bienestar es recomendable escuchar mú-sica clásica.

Contágiese de alegría es-cuchando ballenato, banda, guaracha, guaguancó, bomba, plena, bachata, cumbia, salsa, merengue y joropo.

Para inspirar el amor escuche baladas y música romántica en inglés, español o portugués.

Si desea cargarse de buenas ideas, goce del rock en español.

Cuando necesite liberar su hogar de nergías extrañas o quizá precise liberarse de sen-timientos depresivos, entonces disfrute de la música sacra, los cánticos angelicales, cantos gregorianos o ritmos dedica-dos a los Orishas.

Para atraer prosperidad es-cuche con frecuencia música urbana.

Si necesita despojarse de una mala energía y al mismo tiem-po quiere llamar a la buena suerte, entonces escuche sam-ba, punta, cajón, palo de mayo,

soca, calipso, reggeae, mambo o cualquier ritmo afro-latino.

Para tener sueños reveladores escuche música andina, bam-buco y melodías del medio y lejano oriente

. Si desea tener recuerdos de

vidas anteriores deléitese con el flamenco, el tango, la música en italiano y los ritmos prove-nientes del norte de África..

Para incrementar la pasión y la sensualidad se recomienda la música en alemán, servio, ruso, o algún idioma que le sea poco familiar.

Para liberarse de un mal re-cuerdo es apropiada la música francesa.

Para tener suerte, antes de salir de casa escuche sus melo-días favoritas y verá como le lle-nan de optimismo y seguridad en sí mismo

Seth Rogen, Zac Efron and Rose Byrne lead the cast of Neighbors, a comedy about a young couple suffering from arrested development who are forced to live next to a frater-nity house after the birth of their newborn baby.

Dorothy’s only just returned home from her first incredible journey to Oz, but she’s al-ready being called back for another adventure! After waking to post-tornado Kansas, Doro-thy (Lea Michele) and Toto are whisked to Oz on a magical rainbow mover sent by their old friends the Scarecrow (Dan Aykroyd), the Lion (Jim Belushi) and the Tin Man (Kelsey Grammer).

Time in Oz has passed much faster than back in Kansas, and Dorothy discovers that the Jester (Martin Short) – the devious brother of the Wicked Witch of the West – is taking Oz over one region at a time, holding their leaders captive and casting a pall of darkness over the beloved land. Even Glinda (Bernadette Peters) is unable to combat the Jester’s evil powers, making Dorothy their only hope.

El delantero brasileño Ney-mar Jr vivió este miércoles “uno de los días más felices” de su vida, tras conocer que está considerado por el técni-co de la selección, Luiz Felipe Scolari, para disputar en casa la Copa del Mundo 2014.Luego de que el timonel di-era a conocer la lista de los 23 jugadores que participarán

en la cita del orbe, donde el jugador del Barcelona está incluido, éste publicó a través de una red social que su sue-ño de jugar para su país se volvió realidad.

«No tengo dudas de que es uno de los días más felices de mi vida. Hoy se volvió re-alidad un sueño que tengo desde que era niño. Siempre fui en busca de mis sueños y

éste fue siempre uno de los principales», expresó.

Neymar publicó también una fotografía con el jersey de la “verdeamarela” y mani-festó que llegó el momento de representar a su país en la justa deportiva más impor-tante del balompié interna-cional, donde se marcará el debut del atacante blaugrana en una Copa del Mundo.

Sin asegurar la continuidad de José Luis Trejo como téc-nico de Pumas de la UNAM, la directiva del equipo sostu-vo que el proyecto del club es regresar a la mística e identi-dad que lo ha caracterizado a lo largo de su historia.

En declaraciones a los medios de comunicación el director deportivo de la institución, Mario Trejo, in-dicó que todavía no se tiene asegurado el proyecto con el estratega.Agregó que Pumas de la UNAM tiene definidos sus objetivos, como es el tra-bajo de cantera, el buen juego y recuperar la identidad uni-versitaria.

“No habrá una inversión fuerte... lo que queremos es apoyar a las fuerzas básica, tiene que regresar la filosofía de este club; tuvimos altiba-jos pero creo que ahora es-tamos recuperados para co-menzar a pensar en mejores cosas, esto como opinión del club”, declaró. En ese sentido, explicó que parte de lo que

se quiere mejorar es la situ-ación con selección nacional, donde los felinos por ahora no tienen un convocado.

“Por ello queremos regresar al modelo de cantera, darle el lugar a alguien de abajo antes que a un extranjero, para que pueda ir a selección e incluso a Europa a jugar después”.

De esta manera, el director deportivo del club universi-tario dejó en claro que con José Luis no está descartado nada en un sentido u otro, porque todavía tiene que ve-nir la reunión con el consejo técnico donde se hablará de los puntos de cada uno para

saber si es posible entablar un acuerdo. “Cuando José Luis tomó el equipo no tenía duda de que era el idóneo, aunque hubo más opciones, pero ahora hay que ver hacia dónde vamos, qué proyecto tiene, porque también tiene que encajar con esto que es-toy diciendo de que el club ahora que está sanado busca concretar”, puntualizó. El di-rectivo auriazul expuso que la continuidad es una op-ción real, aunque todavía no hay nada garantizado, y será hasta este viernes cuando tenga una decisión sobre la designación del timonel para el próximo torneo.
