Obama has Democraticsurrogates in Ohio

COLUMBUS, Sept. 3, 2008 (AP): Barack Obamamay already have won Ohio by one measure: thenumber of high-profile Democratic officeholdersavailable to stump for him.

He has Gov. Ted Strickland and U.S. Sen. SherrodBrown in his corner, assets not available to John Kerryfour years ago when the GOP ruled the state.

Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner and TreasurerRichard Cordray are also Democratic officeholders inseats held four years ago by Republicans.

But John McCain also has some well-known OhioRepublicans in his corner.

They include U.S. Sen. George Voinovich,former Congressman John Kasich and former U.S.Sen. Mike DeWine.

NEW PHILADELPHIA,Ohio, Sept. 3, 2008 (AP):Democratic presidentialnominee Barack Obama,pouncing on a top Republi-can aide’s claim that thecampaign is not about is-sues, said Wednesday thatJohn McCain is trying torun away from his party’sbad economic record.

Campaigning in easternOhio, Obama noted thatMcCain campaign man-ager Rick Davis said theelection would be decidedlargely on voters’ percep-tions of the candidates’personalities.

“This election is notabout issues,” Davis toldThe Washington Post thisweek. “This election isabout a composite view ofwhat people take away fromthese candidates.”

Obama mentionedDavis’ comment threetimes during a one-hourappearance at an outdoorforum on economic issuesfacing women. He used itto accuse speakers at theRepublican convention inSt. Paul, Minn., of avoidingtalk about job losses, homeforeclosures and other is-sues.

“If you’ve got GeorgeBush’s track record, andJohn McCain voting 90percent of the time in agree-ment with George Bush,then you probably don’twant to talk about issues

ST. PAUL, Minnesota, el 3de septiembre del 2008 (AP):La convención nacional delPartido Republicanoconcluirá el jueves luego dehaber visto decenas deoradores en su mayoríablancos y apenas unoscuantos, que se pueden contarcon los dedos de la mano, deraíz hispana.

Rosario Marín, tesorera dela nación desde el comienzodel gobierno del presidenteGeorge W. Bush en 2001hasta 2003, dijo el miércolesque no creía que hubiese unadiscriminación contra loslatinos, pero indicó quetampoco estaba segura de quéporcentaje de oradores odelegados a la convención erade ese origen.

Luis Fortuño, comisionadoresidente de Puerto Rico anteel Congreso de Washington,donde tiene voz pero no voto,hizo notar que cuando menos“la totalidad de la delegaciónpuertorriqueña es hispana”.

Los organizadores de laconvención han dicho que un13% de más del millar dedelegados que proclamará aJohn McCain candidatopresidencial era de minoría.

El partido informó que unnegro, Michael Williams,presidente de la comisión detrenes de Texas, tendrá elmiércoles por la noche laoportunidad de ser primeroorador y luego tentativamenteparticipar en la nominaciónde McCain para lapresidencia, en la votación dedelegados.

La “minoría” en EstadosUnidos está conformada por

latinos, que son los primerosen cantidad de población;negros, asiáticos, nativosestadounidenses y otrosgrupos étnicos de menorfiguración, según la Oficinade Censos.

La poca participaciónlatina en St. Paul contrastacon la fluidez del desfile deoradores latinos en laconvención del PartidoDemócrata de la semanapasada en Denver, donde másde 2 de cada 10 tuvo eseorigen para un total de 29 encuatro días.

El principal orador latinodel primer día, el lunes, era elcongresista de la Florida, Lin-coln Díaz-Balart, de origencubano. Pero no pudo hablardebido a que el programa in-augural fue recortado a doshoras y media, de las sieteinicialmente previstas, por lallegada del huracán Gustav alas costas de Nueva Orleáns,a más de 3.000 kilómetros(2.000 millas) al sur de St.Paul.

En realidad Díaz-Balartfue el único latino de la listaese día y no se le ha vuelto aincluir en la programaciónconocida adelantadamentepara los tres días siguientes.

La propia Marín,actualmente secretaria deEstado del gobernador deCalifornia ArnoldSchwarzenegger, figuróinicialmente en el programadel martes. Pero, luegodesapareció su nombre.

El miércoles, Marín seabstuvo de dar detalles sobresu exclusión y dijo solamenteque desconocía si volvería a

ser incluida.El único latino que habló

el martes fue TommyEspinoza, presidente delfondo de desarrollo La RazaInc.

Ceñido al “tema del día”de la convención, que fue “Elpaís primero”, Espinozarecordó que era un demócrataque ahora apoyaba a McCain,exactamente como másadelante lo haría en el mismopodio el senador JoeLieberman, de Connecticut,un demócrata que fuecandidato a la vicepresidenciade Estados Unidos haceapenas ocho años con Al Gore.

En estas convenciones,incluida la demócrata, losoradores, cualquiera que seasu origen, no pueden salirsedel libreto y mencionar temasde interés de suscomunidades. Espinozahabló por ello de sus raícesmexicanas y su devoción a laVirgen de Guadalupe.

El miércoles, en quehablará la candidatavicepresidencial Sarah Palin,figuran tres oradores connombres latinos entre un totalde 21: Abel Maldonado, delsenado estatal de California;Elena Ríos, de la AsociaciónNacional Médica Hispana; yel propio Fortuño.

La oración de bendiciónfinal estará a cargo de lareverenda Eva Rodríguez, deSacramento, California.

Según el Centro HispanoPew, de Washington, hastaabril los latinos estaban enfavor de la candidatura deldemócrata Barack Obama porrelación de 3-1 sobre McCain.

either,” Obama said. “If youdon’t have any issues to runon, I guess you want it to beabout personalities.”

Obama spoke hours be-fore Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin,McCain’s running mate, wasscheduled to address the Re-publican National Conven-tion. Both parties are com-peting fiercely for the votesof women, especially thosedisappointed by HillaryRodham Clinton’s failure towin the Democratic nomina-tion.

Obama is concentratingthis week on Ohio. Bush nar-rowly carried the state in2004 and it could prove piv-otal again this year. He saidMcCain, Bush and other Re-publicans “just don’t get” thehardships many Ohioans arefacing because of the long-

running loss of manufac-turing jobs.

Obama and McCain arerunning about even inOhio, with Obama getting47 percent and McCain 45percent among registeredvoters, according to aCNN-Opinion ResearchCorp. poll conducted Aug.31-Sept. 2.

ST. PAUL, Minnesota, el3 de septiembre del 2008(AP): Varias organizacioneslatinas expresaron elmiércoles su preocupaciónpor las propuestas de lo queharía en el campo de lainmigración John McCain sies elegido presidente deEstados Unidos.

En una carta conjuntadirigida a McCain, quien seráproclamado candidato eljueves en la convenciónnacional republicana, lasorganizaciones le pidenapartar su programa degobierno de las deportacionesy detenciones de inmigrantes.

Esa medida, afirman,“priva a los recién llegados yla propia nación de laspositivas contribucioneseconómicas y sociales de losinmigrantes”.

La plataforma política delpartido fue difundida estasemana como parte de laconvención. En el campo dela inmigración no contemplaamnistía, pero, según losgrupos latinos, contradice losesfuerzos que McCain hahecho en el Senado de abrirla posibilidad de residencia yciudadanía a losindocumentados.

Cecilia Muñoz, delConsejo Nacional de LaRaza, uno de los principalesgrupos de activismo en favorde los hispanos y firmante de

la carta, dijo que McCain“tiene grandes antecedentes”en el debate de inmigraciónpero estaba siendo afectadopor la posición de su partido.

Consideró como “uninsulto” e “inconstitucional”la propuesta de pedir a laOficina de Censos que lanueva configuración territo-rial que haga en el 2010 para laelección de miembros delCongreso no incluya a perso-nas que sean residentesilegales.

La constitución deEstados Unidos dice locontrario, que debe incluir atodos los que viven en esasáreas, sin especificar si debenser documentados o no, yaque de ello dependían lasasignaciones presupuestalespara educación y salud, en-tre otros servicios básicos.

La Agenda Nacional delLiderazgo Hispano, unacoalición de 26organizaciones latinasindependientes, dijo aMcCain en la carta querepudiaba la plataformarepublicana en cuanto a queniega la posibilidad deobtener un status legal a losindocumentados.

“La propuesta de laplataforma del PartidoRepublicano relacionada conla inmigración ignora losesfuerzos suyos de proveeruna oportunidad de legalidad

para los inmigrantes que hanvivido vidas correctas,productivas y apartadas dela delincuencia en EstadosUnidos”, dice la coalición.

Indicó que las propuestasrepublicanas van a “dividirfamilias, dar inseguridad anuestras comunidades alponer en manos de policíaslocales responsabilidadfederales de las leyes deinmigración, afectando depaso las relacionescomunidad-policía”.

La agrupación hace notarigualmente que la plataformacierra las puertas de laeducación superior parajóvenes que se han criado eneste país y se han graduadode escuelas locales y cuyospadres o ellos mismos paganimpuestos a las ciudades yestados donde viven.

Recuerda que ya hapresentado a dirigentes delpartido una propuesta sobre lainmigración con “solucionesde los temas de la mayorimportancia para la crecientecomunidad latina en los cam-pos de derechos civiles, mejoraeconómica, educación,responsabilidad de gobierno,salud e inmigración”.

Latinos preocupados por planMcCain en inmigraciónPor NESTOR IKEDA LA HABANA. El 3 de

septiembre de 2008 (AP):El ex presidente FidelCastro comparó elmiércoles la destrucciónque ocasionó el poderosohuracán Gustav con unaexplosión nuclear y estimólas pérdidas a más de cienmillones de dólares.

“Me atrevo a decir quelas fotos y vistas fílmicasde lo que transmitían eldomingo por la televisiónnacional me recordaban ladesolación que vi cuandovisité Hiroshima, que fuevíctima del ataque con laprimera bomba atómica enagosto de 1945”, escribióCastro en una de sus“Reflexiones” publicadapor los medios de prensacubanos.

Gustav atravesó la islade sur a suroeste concategoría cuatro (de cincoposibles) el sábado. Elhuracán golpeó de lleno ala Isla de la Juventud, aunos 100 kilómetros al surde La Habana, y laprovincia occidental dePinar del Río, donde losmeteorólogos registraronuna racha de viento de 340kilómetros.

El ex mandatario

convaleciente desdehace más de dosaños de variaso p e r a c i o n e sintestinales afirmóque el huracán dejo“100.000 viviendasgolpeadas en mayor omenor grado”.

Además, las autoridadescubanas informaron elderribo de centenares detorres y postes que dañaronla totalidad del sistemaeléctrico en esos lugares, yse afectaron severamentelas comunicaciones y variascosechas.

Para Castro “ahora labatalla es alimentar a lasvíctimas del huracán”.

El ex mandatarioaseguró que las FuerzasArmadas cubanas “tienenla misión de librar subatalla por la población sinderroche alguno derecursos”, y agregó que“todos los organismos(estatales) tienen sus tareasasignadas”.

Pero Castro tambiénapeló a la solidaridad de suscompatriotas, “compartirimplica sacrificios...tenemos que luchar contranuestras superficialidades yegoísmos”.

Agregó que “sólo denuestro trabajo, reitero,podrán salir los recursos...los hombres y mujeres quehabitan esta islarequieren de lasolidaridad, el valor y lacombatividad mostradapor los pinareños ypineros”.

El ex gobernantecubano reveló parte deuna carta que le escribióel pintor cubano Kcho(Alexis Leyva), despuésde visitar la Isla de laJuventud donde afirmóque “la solidaridadhumana está siendo elarma más importante eneste momento”.

Sin embargo, Kchoalertó a Castro: “La moralestá alta pero eso no va aser eterno. Va a haber quedar solución a algunascosas” porque “con eltranscurso de los días lamoral de la gente puededecaer y llegar a ladepresión”.

ANN ARBOR: A new Uni-versity of Michigan Schoolof Education initiative willprovide foreign language in-struction to every third graderin Ann Arbor Public Schoolsbeginning in the fall of 2009.

Through the newly formedAnn Arbor Languages Part-nership, U-M world languageteacher education students,fluent in Spanish, who receiveintensive preparation, willteach it to third graders in all21 Ann Arbor elementary stu-dents for two 30-minute ses-sions each week. The programwill be expanded to includefourth and fifth graders start-ing in 2010-2011.

The apprentice teacherswill be supervised by U-Mfaculty and mentored by themedia specialist in eachschool. The design brings to-gether the building and com-munity-level expertise of themedia specialists, who inter-act with every student in thebuilding and are conversantwith the entire school curricu-lum, with the expertise in lan-guage pedagogy and teacherdevelopment of the U-Mteacher education faculty andgraduate students to create atrue professional laboratory.

”It’s a truly win-win situa-tion for everyone,’’ saidDonald Freeman, a U-M as-sociate professor of educa-tion and director of teachereducation. “Children willlearn Spanish from the U-Mapprentice teachers, as thesenew professionals are learn-ing themselves.”

The finances are mutuallybeneficial as well. Without thePartnership design, the dis-trict would have to spendnearly $1 million for such aprogram, which would not beeconomical feasible. The jointprogram allows the School ofEducation to create a profes-sional learning laboratory forits work in world languageswhile responding to the in-creasing need for K-12 certi-fied Spanish teachers inMichigan and around thecountry.

The benefits to students areclear as well. Research hasfound children exposed to twolanguages at an early age canbe more flexible and creativeand reach higher levels of cog-

nitive development. Indeed,most individuals becomelinguistic “adults” by theage of 12, and a person’sability to use and to learnlanguages in the future isenhanced if s/he has stud-ied a second language as achild.

The new program, whichwill be further refined by U-M and the Ann Arbor SchoolDistrict this year, is basedon the Common EuropeanFramework, a Council ofEurope language policyframework, currently usedin many nations around theworld. The Framework or-ganizes language accordingto learners’ goals, which areexpressed in statements ofwhat they “can do” in thenew language. It is linked toa print or digital LanguagePassport, which is a lan-guage assessment and docu-mentation process that isrecognized world-wide.

The Ann Arbor SchoolDistrict decided on Spanishafter surveying parents. ThePartnership is structured tobe able to add additionallanguages in the future.

ANN ARBOR: Unaflamante iniciativa de laEscuela de Educación de laUniversidad de Michiganproporcionará instrucciónen idiomas extranjeros atodos los estudiantes de ter-cer grado de las EscuelasPúblicas de Ann Arbor apartir del otoño de 2009.

A través de la reciénformada Alianza para losIdiomas de Ann Arbor, losestudiantes de pedagogíaen idiomas de U.M, quehablen español con fluidezy que reciban un cursointensivo de preparación,enseñarán a alumnos de ter-cer grado de todas lasescuelas elementales de AnnArbor en dos sesiones de 30

minutos cada semana. Elprograma se ampliará eincluirá a estudiantes decuarto y quinto grados apartir de 2010-2011.

Los estudiantes depedagogía seránsupervisados por la facultadde U.M. y contarán con ladirección de un especialistaen medios de cada escuela.El plan reúne elconocimiento de lacomunidad de losespecialistas en medios queinteractúan con cadaestudiante de la institución yestán al tanto de todo el índicede materias de la escuela,junto con la experiencia enpedagogía de idiomas ydesarrollo magisterial de lafacultad pedagógica y deestudiantes graduados con elfin de crear un verdaderolaboratorio profesional.

”Es una situación en laque todos ganan”, manifestóDonald Freeman, profesorasociado de educación y di-rector de instrucción deprofesores. “Los niñosaprenderán español conestudiantes de pedagogía deU.M., por cuanto estosnuevos profesionalestambién están aprendiendo”.

La situación financieratambién es de beneficiomutuo. Sin el plan de laAlianza, el distrito tendría quegastar casi un millón dedólares en ese programa, locual no sería económicamente factible. Elprograma conjunto permitea la Escuela de Educacióncrear un laboratorio deaprendizaje profesional parasu trabajo en idiomasextranjeros al tiempo queresponde a la crecientenecesidad de profesorescertificados K-12 de españolen Michigan y en todo el país.

También los beneficiospara los estudiantes sonclaros. La investigación hadeterminado que los niñosexpuestos a dos idiomas aedad temprana pueden sermás flexibles y creativos yque llegan a mayores nivelesde desarrollo cognoscitivo.En efecto, la mayoría de losindividuos se convierten en“adultos” lingüistas a los 12años de edad y se refuerza lacapacidad de una persona deusar y aprender idiomas enel futuro si él o ella haestudiado un segundoidioma durante su niñez.

El nuevo programa, queserá refinado por U.M. y elDistrito Escolar de Ann Ar-bor este año, se basa en elMarco Europeo Común, unplan de política idiomáticadel Consejo de Europa quese usa actualmente enmuchos países del mundo.El Marco organiza un idiomade acuerdo de los objetivosde los estudiantes los cualesse manifiestan en susrespuestas respecto a lo que“pueden hacer” con el nuevoidioma. Está vinculado a un“Pasaporte Lingüistico”,impreso o digital, el cual esuna evaluación idiomática yun proceso dedocumentación que20seacepta en todo el mundo.

El Distrito Escolar de AnnArbor se decidió por elespañol después de realizaruna consulta a los padres. LaAlianza se estructuró demanera de agregar nuevosidiomas en el futuro. Elacuerdo, que fue aceptadode manera entusiasta por laJunta Escolar en su sesióndel miércoles 20 de agosto,creará oportunidades parauna mayor colaboración entodos los niveles.

G U A D A L A J A R A ,México, el 3 deseptiembre del 2008(AP): Cristóbal Orellanaera un chico normal, vivíaen Guadalajara con sufamilia, estudiaba,trabajaba. Un día seformó en la fila adecuaday ahora está próximo aestrenar su primerapelícula.

Cristóbal es elprotagonista de “HighSchool Musical: eldesafío”, que se estrenael 5 de septiembre enMéxico.

Cristobal dijo a TheAssociated Press queespera que este proyectoencante al públicomexicano.

“Espero que le guste ala gente, que se divierta,que se dé la oportunidadde ir a verla, que confíeen nosotros”, comentóCristóbal minutos antesde la premier que serealizo el miércoles porla noche en esta ciudaddel occidente de México.

La aventura comenzóel junio del año pasado,cuando Cristóbalacompañó a su hermanamenor a la prueba en que

ARIES: MARCH 21 - APRIL 20People are using back door tactics to get what they

want from you. If you’re being used, it’s time tosmarten up. You might want to tell them you’re wiseto their game and would prefer it if they dealt with youmore honestly.

TAURUS: APRIL 21 - MAY 20Whether you know it or not it’s your charisma, not

your credentials that will get you where you want togo. This will fly if you put your best foot forward andcontinue to maintain honesty and integrity in all ofyour dealings.

GEMINI: MAY 21 - JUNE 20You’re bored because you’ve outgrown this. Oth-

ers are perfectly content. The desire to hang on battleswith the urge to escape. Don’t do anything drastic. Ifyou’re fed up try first to see if there’s any room forchange here.

CANCER: JUNE 21 - JULY 20Your craving for warmth makes it hard to see

anything clearly. Casting others in a perfect lightwon’t change the fact that they may not be the one.The timing on love is different for everyone. Don’tforce it if it isn’t there.

LEO: JULY 21 - AUGUST 20Your problems would be solved if you could come

out and tell people you’re not ready to go along withwhatever the deal is. You have every right to say no,so tell the truth and don’t worry about what it costs orwho can handle it.

VIRGO: AUGUST 21 - SEPTEMBER 20Tact and timing are everything right now. This is a

touchy subject that can’t be approached directly. Bemindful of other people’s moods and don’t let the catout of the bag until you’re clear that they’re ready todeal with it.

LIBRA: SEPTEMBER 21 - OCTOBER 20Hell could freeze over before others wake up and

contribute something to this arrangement. Why you’vebeen so complacent about it is a mystery. They may betotally useless, but that doesn’t mean you have to putup with it.

SCORPIO: OCTOBER 21 - NOVEMBER 20You keep wondering why you’re so unlucky when

it comes to love. After this last affair you see that theobject of your affection had everything but integrity.It may give you some comfort to know that you’rebetter off without them.

SAGITTARIUS: NOVEMBER 21 - DECEMBER 20This is someone else’s deal. You did nothing to

mess it up. Your only mistake was choosing the wrongpeople to hang out with. Next time someone tries torope you into their psycho-drama respect yourselfenough to say just say no.

CAPRICORN: DECEMBER 21 - JANUARY 20In the middle of an identity crisis, you can’t expect

to know what’s going on. You’re hung up trying tokeep your cool when you need to fall apart. If youcould see this as a beginning instead of an endingyou’d be much better off.

AQUARIUS: JANUARY 21 - FEBRUARY 20Too much activity obscures our deeper needs.

Most of what you’re doing is benefiting everyone butyou. Weeding out your life will eliminate uselessconnections and give you space and time to focus onwhat’s truly meaningful to you.

PISCES: FEBRUARY 21 - MARCH 20Don’t be too quick to write people off. You’ve got

a diamond in the rough here. They may not be perfectbut they have a good heart and the best intentions. Afew close encounters will show you that you’d be afool to let them go.

se escogería a losparticipantes de unprograma de realidad vir-tual. El gran premio delconcurso era protagonizarla versión mexicana delmusical. Y no sóloacompañó a su hermana,sino que hizo la prueba, lapasó y ganó el concurso.

Todo el proceso “hasido muy rápido, perotambién ha sido muyintenso (...) yo volteo haciaatrás y pienso: ‘quérápido’, pero en realidades como si hubieranpasado tres años”, dijoCristobal.

La historia de HighSchool Musical ya estáprobada. La versiónestadounidense es uno delos fenómenos mediáticosentre los adolescentes.

Así, el verdaderodesafío parecería ser quela versión mexicana tengauna identidad propia.

“El simple hecho de ser(los actores) mexicanosnos identifica totalmente ynos separa de la películaa m e r i c a n a(estadounidense). Lamúsica se trabajó conritmos que gustan aquí, lacomedia es comedia que

The Lorain CountyLatino Celebration be-gins Saturday September20, from 7 pm – 9 pm, atthe Lorain Palace The-ater for a movie called“Yo Soy Boricua Pa queLo Sepa,” which trans-lates to “I am proud to bePuerto Rican, so that youknow it”

It’s a film narrated byactor Jimmy Smith thatexplains the Puerto Rican

history, experience, and cul-ture (both on the island andmain land). This movie willenlighten both Puerto Ricansand non Puerto Ricans aboutthe issues, traditions and theculture that influenced thePuerto Rican community ofYesterday and Today. The di-rector and producer is RosiePérez.

Orozco is active inLourdes’ “Get in the GameNew Student OrientationProgram” and volunteers atvarious campus-sponsoredevents, including LatinoCareer Day and theCollege’s 50th AnniversaryCelebration. Additionally,she volunteers at Washing-ton Church as a MOPS(Mothers of Pre-Schoolers)Nanny.

Albert Flores, of Toledowill be named the LatinoAdult Leadership Award re-cipient. Flores’ commit-ment to the area youth ofNorthwest Ohio hasspanned over 33 years ofdedicated service.

As a school teacher atLibbey High School, Florescontinuously stresses to hisstudents about the impor-tance of a college educa-tion. From guiding studentsthrough the FAFSA appli-cation process to advocat-ing and guiding individu-als through scholarship op-portunities at area academicinstitutions, Flores givestirelessly of his time to helpthem achieve academic andcareer success. In additionto teaching, Flores serveson the EXCEL board at TheUniversity of Toledo andrecently began tutoring Uni-

Flores, Orozco, others to receive Diamante awardsversity student-athletes.

Mark Pickett, of Fremont,Professor of Civil Engineer-ing at The University of To-ledo, will be named the re-cipient of the Friend of theLatino Community Award.Picket has been a longtimeadvocate in creating oppor-tunities for students who facegreat challenges in their edu-cation pursuits, especiallychildren of Latino migrantworkers. His devotion to edu-cation includes spendingcountless hours planning,gathering resources and as-sembling an array of educa-tors to reach those individu-als in need of assistance.

Recognizing the tremen-dous educational challengesfacing children of Latino mi-grant workers as a result ofrepeatedly relocating to newschools, the loss of a stablelearning environment andmentor relationships,Pickett decided to create aneducational program thatmeets the needs of these in-dividuals, as well as a pro-gram that teaches the stu-dents’ teachers. Among theprogram highlights includethe students’ participationin The University ofToledo’s Latino StudentSummit.

Pickett’s leadership goes

beyond his organizing andteaching initiatives as heworks tirelessly to securefunding for these programsfrom agencies such as theNational Science Founda-tion and the Ohio Depart-ment of Education, whichenables teachers to partici-pate in the educational pro-gram free of charge. Hisprogram also advocatesthat the educators give backto the community by teach-ing migrant students in sat-ellite schools throughoutNorthwest Ohio.

This year’s recipient ofthe Corporation/CommunityAgency Award is TheChrysler Foundation, whichhas served as event sponsorof the Diamante Awards forthe past four years. TheChrysler Foundation’s dedi-cation and commitment tothe event sponsorship nowtotals $60,000. In additionto the event sponsorship,The Chrysler Foundation hadrequested that $5,000 of theannual sponsorship bematched by the participat-

ing higher education insti-tutions resulting in $40,000in direct scholarships to stu-dents. The ChryslerFoundation’s support hashad an impact of $100,000for the past four years.

Diamante Award recipi-ents are chosen based on rec-ognition of exemplary lead-ership/achievements withinthe Latino community orcommunity at large, or dem-onstrated excellence in theirfields; dedication and com-mitment in an ethical andinclusive fashion, and mod-

eling qualities and behav-iors of a mentor for youthand the community.

The annual DiamanteAwards, now comprisingOwens Community Col-lege, Bowling Green StateUniversity, Lourdes Col-lege and The University ofToledo, was founded by theNorthwest Ohio Latino ad-vocacy organization IM-AGE in 1989 to recognizeindividuals and organiza-tions in the local Latinocommunity for their out-standing contributions, and

(Continued from Page 3)

to recognize the impact ofLatinos on U.S. culture andsociety. The initiative in-cludes providing scholar-ships and other support tomake it possible for Latinostudents to attend college.

MEXICO. 7 deseptiembre del2008.(AP) Méxicoconsiguió un claro y fáciltriunfo sobre Jamaica,uno que le sirvió paraempezar a marcardistancias como líder desu grupo en lase l i m i n a t o r i a smundialistas de laCONCACAF.

Con goles de AndrésGuardado, FernandoArce y Jonny Magallón,México ganó el sábado3-0 en su feudo delestadio Azteca y llegó aseis puntos en el Grupo2.

“Triunfo reluciente”,tituló el diario deportivoRécord del domingo.“Demasiado fácil,México borró de un

plumazo la idea de que enfútbol las distancias se hanacortado ... El Tri paseó aJamaica, al que pudogolear, pero sólo le metiótres goles”.

La victoria de Méxicofue presenciada por más de100.000 espectadores, quevistieron de color blancoen su mayoría apoyandouna campaña para protestarpor la inseguridad queprevalece en el país.

“Blanca realidad”, dijoEl Universal. “Méxicogolea a Jamaica ante elclamor popular en contrade la inseguridad”.

Ahora, México recibiráa Canadá el próximomiércoles, buscandomantenerse perfecto entres encuentros. Despuéspagará visitas a los

jamaicanos, canadienses ycatrachos, en ese orden.

“México lleva seispuntos. Pasó conautoridad sobre el rival, unrival que no sabemos cómole fue a empatar a Canadáen Toronto”, afirma elrotativo Esto.

Los dos mejoresequipos de cada grupoavanzarán al hexagonal fi-nal, donde se dirimirán tresboletos directos y unrepechaje rumbo aSudáfrica 2010.

“México ganó sincortapisas, sin forzar losengranes. Ya tiene, esteequipo de Sven-GoranEriksson, un sendero queseguir. El estilo, tantasveces discutido, ahora seva consolidando”, afirmóel periódico Excelsior.

Mundial: México se hizo sentir ante un rivalmuy flojo... SAN JUAN (AP) Los

estadios de béisbolprofesional en Puerto Ricohan encontrado un nuevouso. Se han convertido enestadios de fútbol. ¿Hastacuándo? El público, con suasistencia, dirá.

No es que se olvidarándel béisbol, sino queacogiendo al deporte demoda en la Isla maximizansus instalaciones.

Uno de ellos, el JuanRamón Loubriel deBayamón, ya cambiópermanentemente al fútboly ahora es la sede de losPuerto Rico Islanders, elequipo boricua que juegaen la United Soccer League(USL), con base en EstadosUnidos.

Los demás, excepto elLuis Rodríguez Olmo deArecibo, han acogido a losclubes de la Puerto RicoSoccer League, la primeraliga profesional de fútbolen la isla.

“Vamos a estar enestadios que vanperfeccionar la técnica decambiar de un deporte a otro.No queremos quitarleespacio a nadie. Queremospoder compartir con otrosdeportes”, dijo a PrensaAsociada el presidente de laFederación Puertorriqueñade Fútbol (FPF), Joe Serralta.

“Pero no dudo que lapróxima etapa sea construirestadios específicamente defútbol”, agregó.

El aumento en lapopularidad del fútbol enPuerto Rico tiene dosmomentos específicos quepueden mencionarse comolos que dieron el impulsonecesario: el debut de losPuerto Rico Islanders en laUSL en 2004 y la creaciónde la PRSL este año.

A esto se le suma elsurgimiento del primerequipo profesionalfemenino, las Puerto RicoCapitals, de la Women’s Pre-mier Soccer League, conbase en Estados Unidos.

“Nos impusimos la metade crear consciencia sobreel fútbol en Puerto Rico...que el puertorriqueño,siendo tan buen atleta, tengapresente que el fútbol es otrodeporte en el que se puededesarrollar muy bien”,expresó el presidente de Is-landers, Andrés Guillemard.

En cinco años, los Island-ers han levantado unafanaticada consistente quelleva más de 3,000 personasa cada partido local, deacuerdo con las estadísticasdel club, cantidad que elbéisbol profesional sólo

veía en sus estadios en lasdécadas de 1960 y 1970.

Por el mismo caminoparece ir la nueva ligaprofesional, que en dosmeses, ha registrado “buenasasistencias” si se tiene encuenta que es un torneo nuevoy que el fútbol nunca ha sidoun deporte principal en laisla.

El empresario MiguelRoca, presidente de la PRSL,dijo a la AP que el promediode asistencia está entre 1,500y 2,000 personas por partido.

“El pueblo está cada díamás interesado en el fútbol.El éxito que han tenido entrenuestra población latransmisión de eventosinternacionales ha ayudadomucho”, expresó Roca.

Por el contrario, el béisbolprofesional, que por décadasfue el deporte rey en la isla,fue decayendo año tras añohasta el punto de que la liga

suspendió sutorneo el añopasado por lagrave crisiseconómica que la afectaba.

Las Grandes Ligas no hanayudado mucho. Ningúnequipo estadounidense tieneacademia en el país comoocurre en Venezuela yRepública Dominicana.

En la Isla sólo existe laPuerto Rico Baseball Acad-emy and High School_dirigida por el ex lanzadorde los Vigilantes de Texas,Edwin Correa_ como únicaorganización formalespecializada en lainstrucción del béisbol y queopera de formaindependiente, aunque recibealguna ayuda económica deMajor League Baseball.

“(El fútbol) es el deportede más crecimiento en PuertoRico, contrario al béisbol y albaloncesto”, sostuvo.

El fútbol levanta vuelo en Puerto Rico...

BRIDGEVIEW, Illinois,EE.UU. Septiembre 13 del2008(AP) Edgar Solís yMarco Fabián anotaron enun lapso de dos minutos lossendos goles quepermitieron el jueves a losChivas de Guadalajaravencer 2-0 al alicaídoAmérica en una versiónamistosa del “clásico” delfútbol mexicano.

Después de una primeramitad sin anotaciones, losChivas intensificaron lapresión en la segunda. Solísconvirtió a los 59 minutosal aprovechar un balón quesoltó el arquero ArmandoNavarrete cuando paró unremate de cabeza. Fabiánanotó dos minutos mástarde con un potentedisparo de larga distancia.

América creyó que pudotomar la delantera a los 23minutos. El argentinoFederico Insúa cobró un tirolibre frente al área y el balónparecía ingresar a la metacuando el portero SergioRodríguez lo despejó conlas manos.

Los Chivas recibieron 13minutos después la ventajade un hombre más cuandoel América perdió a JuanCarlos Silva por tarjeta rojadebido a una falta contraXavier Báez.

La vez anterior que el“clásico” mexicano fuejugado en Estados Unidosfue el 31 de octubre del2006 en la ciudad de Glen-dale en el estado de Ari-zona. El resultado fue unempate a 1-1.

Obama cited his pro-posals to increase the mini-mum wage and the earnedincome tax credit; to pumpmoney into wind and solarpower, clean-coal technol-ogy and biodiesel fuels;and to help subsidizehealth and tuition costs formany families.

Obama made a rare di-rect reference to Palinwhile discussing women’sefforts to be paid the sameas men in similar jobs. Ifelected, he said, “we aregoing to pass equal payfor equal work.”

“I disagree with JohnMcCain on this, and I dis-agree with Gov. Palin onthis,” he said. “They thinkthat the reason womenaren’t getting paid thesame is because of differ-ent education” achieve-ments.

McCain and Palin saythey believe in equal pay

Obama says economic issueswill decide election(Continued from Page 2)

for equal work. But theyoppose Obama’s efforts tooverturn court rulings thatallow workers no more than180 days to file complaintsalleging discriminatorypay.

Obama at one pointflubbed the town’s name,calling it “New Pennsyl-vania” rather than “NewPhiladelphia.” Some in thefriendly, invitation-onlyaudience murmured softly,but did not correct theirguest.

Campaigning at a farmpicnic in Dillonvale, ineastern Ohio, Obama toldlisteners not to believe Re-publicans who say he op-poses gun rights.

“You know they alwaysdo that out here,” he said,referring to rural areas. “Ibelieve in the SecondAmendment. Nobody whois a hunter out here or asportsman needs to worryabout their guns in anObama administration.You spread the word outthere.”

Obama also issued astatement expressing sym-pathy for HurricaneGustav’s victims in Cuba.He asked Bush “to imme-diately suspend restric-tions on family remit-tances, visits and humani-tarian care packages fromCuban-Americans for aminimum of 90 days.”

Spanish-speaking workshopon rebuilding credit, Sept. 13

Lucas County Com-missioner Ben Konop,Lucas County TreasurerWade Kapszukiewicz, andOhio State Treasurer Ri-chard Cordray have joinedforces to offer the first“Rebuild Your Credit”workshop for Spanish-speaking residents in theNorthwest Ohio area.

A weak local and na-

tional economy makes ev-ery single dollar a preciousresource for local families. In this environment, afamily’s credit score be-comes more and more im-portant as they achieve fi-nancial stability.

According to the FairIsaac Corporation, thenation’s leading creditmonitoring organization, alow credit score could forcea family to pay thousandsof dollars more per year onan average $150,000 mort-gage than would a familywith a high credit score.
