THE COMMUNITY VOICE LA VOZ / APRIL 2015 3

Why do so many of ustaxpayers feel Proposal

1 is a bad deal? If you watch the televisioncommercials in favor of better roads forMichigan and read the propaganda abouthow good the May 5th Proposal 1 is, you'reprobably convinced by now to vote yes forthis 2 billion dollar increase in tax revenuesfor our 52 billion dollar state budget. Manypeople willprobably voteyes becauseof the obviousconnection tosafer citystreets, roads,highways andbridges. Sothe politiciansand specialinterests pro-moting theone percentincrease insales tax wantus to believethis tax in-crease is the solution to all of our road prob-lems and there are the added advantages ofincreased funding for schools, a tax breakfor the poor through the earned incomecredit, and a brighter future for Michigan.Brighter for whom we ask?

Lower and middle class families are amongthe voters who are not convinced that this isthe best plan for fixing our roads. We seethe income gap growing between groups.We are affected by wages being deflated,collective bargaining being eroded daily,and increased taxes on our pensions. Theadded burdens of higher costs for homeheating, electricity, water, sewer, trash re-moval and transportation including gasolinehave taken their toll on maintaining ourhouseholds. This proposed sales tax in-crease affects all of us directly. If passed itwill increase our cost of goods, generalhousehold and personal items. It will effec-tively make us the second highest sales taxstate in the nation.

In addition to higher sales taxes, we can ex-pect to pay more for license tabs and regu-latory requirements at the Secretary of State,as if we aren't paying enough already. Wewill also feel the additional pinch at the gaspump. Be prepared to add approximately10 cents per gallon more on gas at the pumpfor most of us. The burden will be felt mostby those of us not driving new hybrid cars orhigher fuel efficient vehicles due to our lowor modest incomes.

Meanwhile, there are many private compa-nies that want the proposal to pass as it willput millions in their pockets. Road con-struction, paving, bridge repair companiesand other select companies that performwork for the state will benefit. They will con-tinue to use outdated road repair techniques

and low quality materials on our roadsthereby furthering a dependence on annualrepairs.

Critics point out that while the new tax gen-erates an additional 2 billion dollars for thestate suggesting that only about 79% ofthese new funds will actually go toward re-pairing our roads. The estimates are that 1.3

billion will goto roads, 200million to ourschools, 116million totransporta-tion, 111 mil-lion to ourcities for rev-enue shar-ing, and 173million to thestate's gen-eral fund.Critics sug-gest that thisproposal isa n o t h e r

"money grab" for the state's general fund.The only positive I see here is increasedfunding for our schools, however this amountis inadequate to address our needs.

On May 5th voters will decide to support thenew tax or vote it down. My personal opin-ion is that this is not the best plan for Michi-gan voters. I suspect it will be voted down.I think our state legislators need to re-priori-tize the 52 billion dollars they already collectfrom us and set their priorities to better serveMichigan. If taxes are too high in Michiganit will continue to foster population lossesand investment in our state and an eventualloss of income. It is time to engage in tax re-form! Just say no to higher taxes!

¿Por qué tantos de nosotros los con-tribuyentes sienten Propuesta 1 es una malmala propuesta? Si usted mira los anunciosde televisión en favor de los mejorescaminos para Michigan y lee la propagandasobre lo bueno que es la Propuesta 1 en labalota del 05 de mayo, probablemente estásconvencido por votar sí a favor de este au-mento de 2 mil milliones de dólares en in-gresos fiscales para nuestro presupuestoestatal de 52 mil millones. Mucha genteprobablemente votarán sí a causa de la ev-idente relación de más seguras calles,caminos, carreteras y puentes. Así que lospolíticos y los intereses especiales que pro-mueven el aumento de un por ciento au-mento de impuestos sobre las ventasquieren que creamos que esta subida deimpuestos es la solución a todos nuestrosproblemas viales y que hay ciertas ventajasañadidas de una mayor financiación paralas escuelas, una rebaja de impuestos paralos pobres a través de la crédito por ingreso,y un futuro más brillante para Michigan. Lespregunto: Más brillante para quien?

La tradición de preparar alumnos para carreras exitosas

conocimientos fundamentales para lograr un impacto

DONDE COMIENZA EL ÉXITO.

Las familias de bajos ingresos y de clase media son algunos de los votantes que no estánconvencidos de que este es el mejor plan para la fijación de nuestras carreteras. Vemosla creciente brecha de ingresos entre los grupos.Nos vemos afectados por los salarios que se desin-fla, la negociación colectiva está erosionando diariodiariamente, y hay aumento de los impuestos sobrenuestras pensiones. Las cargas añadidas de may-ores costos para la calefacción del hogar, electrici-dad, agua, alcantarillado, recolección de basura ytransporte incluida la gasolina se han hecho sentiren el mantenimiento de nuestros hogares. Este au-mento de los impuestos de ventas propuesto nosafecta a todos directamente. Si se aprueba aumen-tará nuestro costo de los productos generales delhogar y artículos personales. Nuestro Estado deMichigan será efectivamente el estado con en se-gundo lugar en con impuestos sobre las ventas másalta del país.

Además de mayores impuestos a las ventas,podemos llegar a pagar más por las placas de li-cencia y los requisitos reglamentarios de la Secre-taría de Estado, como si no estamos pagando bastante ahora mismo. También vamos asentir la presión adicional en el costo de la gasolina. Esté preparado para gastar unos 10centavos más por galón de gasolina para la mayoría de nosotros. Se hará sentir la cargamás por aquellos de nosotros que no conducimos coches híbridos nuevos o vehículos efi-cientes de combustible más altos debido a nuestros ingresos bajos o moderados.

Mientras tanto, hay muchas empresas privadas que quieren la propuesta pase, ya quepondrá a millones en sus bolsillos. Companias de construcción de carreteras, pavi-mentación, companías de reparación de los puente y otras compañías selectas que real-izan trabajos para el estado se beneficiará. Ellos continuarán utilizando técnicas de

reparación de carreteras anticuadas y materiales de baja calidad en nuestras carreterasimpulsando así una dependencia de reparaciones anuales.

Los críticos señalan que mientras que elnuevo impuesto genera un adicional de 2mil millones de dólares para el estado quesugiere que sólo alrededor del 79% deestos nuevos fondos se destinarán a la re-alidad reparar nuestras carreteras. Las esti-maciones indican que 1,3 mil millones sedestinarán a carreteras, 200 millones paranuestras escuelas, 116 millones para eltransporte, 111 millones a nuestras ciu-dades para el reparto de ingresos, y 173millones al fondo general del estado. Loscríticos sugieren que esta propuesta es otro"apropiación de dinero" para el fondo gen-eral del estado. Lo único positivo que veoaquí se incrementa fondos para nuestrasescuelas, sin embargo esta cantidad es in-suficiente para hacer frente a nuestrasnecesidades.

El 05 de mayo los votantes decidirán apoyar el nuevo impuesto o votar en contra. Mi opiniónpersonal es que este no es el mejor plan para los votantes de Michigan. Sospecho que serárechazada. Creo que nuestros legisladores estatales tienen que volver a dar prioridad a los52 mil millones de dólares que ya se recogen de nosotros y establecer sus prioridadespara servir mejor a Michigan. Si los impuestos son demasiado altos en Michigan se sigafomentando la pérdida de población y la inversión en nuestro estado y una eventual pér-dida de ingresos. ¡Es el momento de emprender una reforma de impuestos! ¡Sólo puedodecir no a los impuestos más altos!

LANSING, Mich. (AP) - State law-makers are looking at how to reg-ulate the use of body cameras bypolice in Michigan as more agen-cies across the country equiptheir officers with the devices.

One bill that appears to be gain-ing traction would prohibit the re-lease of certain video from policebody cameras, making mostfootage taken in places definedas private exempt from disclo-sure under the state’s Freedom ofInformation Act.

Bill sponsor Rep. Jim Runestad, a Re-publican from White Lake, said he wantsto prevent embarrassing or invasive re-leases of footage that have occurred inother states from happening in Michigan.He said sometimes police are called toinvestigate incidents where people wouldhave a reasonable expectation of privacy,such as in their home or car, but no crimi-nal activity is occurring. Police called toinvestigate a suspected break-in mightcapture private details of a person’shome, for example, but there might notactually be a robbery occurring. The re-lease of that footage could be invasive,Runestad said.

He said he’s worked with groups includ-ing the state attorney general’s office, theMichigan State Police and the AmericanCivil Liberties Union to find bill languagewith a “balanced approach between pri-vacy concerns and law enforcement con-cerns.”

Runestad’s bill would provide guidelinesfor local police that choose to use bodycameras, he said.

That bill’s chances appear better than an-other that would require local police touse the devices.

Los legisladores estatales están bus-cando la forma de regular el uso de cá-maras de cuerpo por la policía enMichigan a medida que más agencias entodo el país equipan sus funcionarios conlos dispositivos.

Un proyecto de ley que parece estarganando terreno prohibiría la liberaciónde cierto vídeo de las cámaras delcuerpo de policía, lo que hace más imá-genes tomadas en lugares definidoscomo privada exenta de divulgación bajola Ley de Libertad de Información de losdel estado.

Colorado program that lets immigrants getdriver's licenses regardless of their legal sta-tus will be operational in three locationsaround the state instead of one under a dealstruck by lawmakers.

The compromise agreed last March gives thestate Department of Revenue access to$66,000 in fees from immigrant applicants,instead of the $166,000 they initially re-quested. The department argued the addi-tional money was needed to keep up withhigh demand for the licenses.

Democrats and Republicans gridlocked onwhether to approve $166,000 and thatprompted the department to reduce offices

participating in the programfrom five to one located inDenver.

The agreement still needsto be approved by eachchamber.

Democrats passed the program in 2013when they controlled both chambers of thestatehouse. Every Republican lawmaker op-posed the program then.

In February, the Colorado Department ofMotor Vehicles announced that it was reduc-ing the number of offices offering immigrantdriver's licenses from five to one after Re-publicans in the Joint Budget Committee re-jected requests to allocate funds for theprogram.

The number of appointments had droppedfrom 155 a day to 31.

El acuerdo aún debe ser aprobado por cadacámara.

Los demócratas aprobaron el programa en2013 cuando controlaban ambas cámarasde la legislatura estatal. Cada legislador re-publicano se opuso al programa de contin-uación.

En febrero, el Departamento de VehículosMotorizados de Colorado anunció que es-taba reduciendo el número de oficinas queofrecen las licencias de conducir para inmi-grantes de cinco a uno después de los re-publicanos en la Comisión Mixta dePresupuesto rechazaron solicitudes paraasignar los fondos para el programa.

La "Caravana 43" empezó su recorrido estelunes en las ciudades texanas de San Anto-nio, McAllen y El Paso.

Familiares y compañeros de los 43 estudi-antes desaparecidos el año pasado en Méx-ico pidieron el pasado mes de Marzo enEstados Unidos la intervención de organismosinternacionales en la investigación empren-dida por las autoridades mexicanas.

El llamado fue hecho en San Antonio (Texas),en el inicio de la "Caravana 43", una gira en laque recorrerán, por lo menos, 43 ciudades es-tadounidenses durante el próximo mes, entrelas que están Nueva York y Washington, conel fin de difundir la situación que viven desdeque desaparecieron sus allegados.

"Esperamos sensibilizar a la población y alGobierno de que en México se violan sis-temáticamente los derechos humanos", ex-plicó en una entrevista Omar García, uno delos compañeros de los 43 estudiantes de laescuela de normalistas de Ayotzinapa, que lanoche del pasado 26 de septiembre logró es-

capar de los policías que detuvieron al restode jóvenes.

Según el estudiante, el Gobierno de Méxicoha demostrado "un interés político por cerrarya el caso, darle un carpetazo", dejando sinrespuestas a los padres de sus compañeros. Es por eso que en Nueva York se reunirán conAmnistía Internacional y en Washington DCcon la Comisión Interamericana de DerechosHumanos (CIDH), además de otras organiza-ciones en ciudades como Los Ángeles, con laesperanza de que la presión exterior cambieel rumbo de su tragedia.

Otro de los objetivos de la "Caravana 43" esponer de nuevo en la agenda informativa elcaso de los estudiantes desaparecidos, yaque tras casi seis meses de los hechos, estáncayendo en el olvido, alertan.

La "Caravana 43" empezó su recorrido elpasado de 16 Marzo en las ciudades texanasde San Antonio, McAllen y El Paso, desdedonde partirán en tres rutas distintas querecorrerán urbes de los estados centrales, de

la costaeste y laoeste deEstadosUnidos.

Relativesof the 43students whose disappearance last year inGuerrero, Mexico triggered national outrageand accusations of government corruption arescheduled to visit the U.S. during the nextthree weeks as part of a tour to raise aware-ness about the case."For the Mexican American community, theseare our relations, these are our relatives thatare being oppressed by the Mexican govern-ment," said Gilbert Rivera, an Austin organizerof the caravan's stop there. "It's important forus to support them."

Tour stops are also scheduled in Los Angeles,New York, Washington, Chicago, Detroit, Mil-waukee, San Antonio and Dallas, among othercities, organizers said.

In a statement, a representative of the families,Felipe de la Cruz Sandoval, said it was impor-tant that both U.S. citizens and government of-ficials of other countries "...are aware of theinjustices in Mexico, and the internationalcommunity see what is the globalization of re-pression."

The students are known as the Ayotzinapa 43,after the name of the teacher training collegethey were attending in Guerrero. The groupwent missing Sept. 26, 2014, at the hands oflocal police who turned them over to be killedby a drug gang who later burned the bodies,according to the federal government. An at-tack on the students left six other classmates

LANSING – State Representative ScottDianda (D-Calumet) introduced House Bill4416 last month to ban the sale, distributionand possession of powdered alcohol, whichis marketed as Palcohol. Palcohol is sold in a4x6 packet that weighs less than an ounce,and creates an alcoholic beverage when it ismixed with water.

“The federal government has clearedthe way for state liquor commissions to pre-vent the sale and distribution of Palcohol, butI believe that the Legislature should take ac-tion and ban this substance now,” saidDianda. “I believe that allowing powdered al-cohol sale and possession in Michigan wouldcause an intolerable public health risk be-cause it opens many possibilities for both in-tentional and unintentional abuse. Simply put:we don’t need this.”Powdered alcohol is created by freeze-dryingalcohol with a host compound that keeps itfrom turning back into a liquid at room tem-

perature. Because it is a powder that onlyhas to be mixed with water to create alcohol,someone could go into a bar or restaurant li-censed to sell and serve alcohol and mix thepowder into a glass of water and consume itwithout the server or bartender knowing.Under Michigan law, establishments thatserve alcohol are liable if their customers be-come dangerously impaired and cannotallow people to bring in their own drinks.Predators could slip Palcohol into someone’sdrink greatly increasing its alcoholic content.And it also could increase the chances of ac-cidental or intentional misuse by children andyoung people.

“Powdered alcohol that is made to tastesweet and marketed under names like ‘lemondrop’ and ‘powderita’ in a packet that looks alot like Kool-Aid is a cynical attempt to targetyoung people and downplay the seriousnessof alcohol consumption,” said Dianda. “At atime when we are trying to better educate our

children and youngadults on responsiblealcohol use, the easyavailability of Palco-hol if we don’t ban itcould undermine our efforts and pose a realdanger to our children.

“I look forward to working with my House col-leagues to ban this substance before it be-comes a serious problem facing Michiganfamilies and law enforcement officials,” saidDianda.

Representante del Estado de Scott Dianda(D-Calumet) presentó el Proyecto de Ley4416 el pasado mes de marzo de prohibir laventa, distribución y posesión de alcohol enpolvo, que se comercializa como Palcohol.Palcohol se vende en un paquete de 4x6 quepesa menos de una onza, y crea una bebidaalcohólica cuando se mezcla con agua.Alcohol en polvo se crea por el alcohol de li-

ofilización con un compuesto de acogidaque le impide girar de nuevo en un líquido atemperatura ambiente. Debido a que es unpolvo que sólo tiene que ser mezclado conagua para crear el alcohol, alguien podría ira un bar o un restaurante con licencia paravender y servir alcohol y mezclar el polvo enun vaso de agua y lo consumen sin que elservidor o camarero saber. Bajo la ley deMichigan, los establecimientos que sirven al-cohol son responsables si sus clientes sevuelven peligrosamente deteriorado y nopueden permitir que la gente traer suspropias bebidas. Los depredadores podríandeslizarse Palcohol en la bebida de alguienaumentando considerablemente su con-tenido alcohólico. Y también podría aumentarlas posibilidades de mal uso accidental o in-tencional por parte de niños y jóvenes.

Dianda Sponsors Bill Banning Powdered Alcohol

States in the Midwest are not uniformly prepared to imple-ment immigration policies advanced by President Obama,potentially jeopardizing $650 million in additional tax rev-enues for their cash-strapped governments, according to anew report by The Chicago Council on Global Affairs.

In fact, Midwestern states have much to gain from successfulimplementation of the President’s executive action. Full par-ticipation from an estimated 579,000 eligible undocumentedresidents in the Midwest region could generate $652.3 mil-lion in tax revenues over the next five years. Illinois alonestands to increase its tax revenues by $347 million based on

an estimated 281,000 eligible undocumented residents.

The report highlights actions and opportunities that state andcity government agencies, immigrant-serving nonprofits andlegal service providers could adopt and embrace to ensurethey are poised to support applications from hundreds ofthousands of undocumented workers eligible for the Presi-dent’s Expanded Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals(DACA) and the Deferred Action for Parents of Americansand Lawful Permanent Residents (DAPA). Specifically, thereport notes structural and other limitations that could com-promise states’ ability to realize potential tax revenues fromnewly legal workers. Some of The Chicago Council findingsinclude that:

• As many as half – 288,000 – of eligible Midwesterners aredispersed outside of concentrated immigrant communities indiffuse, harder-to-reach areas.• Limited resources could mean an average load of morethan 800 cases per legal aid organization across the region.

• A large vol-ume of re-quests fordocumentaryevidence forapplicationswill test the ca-pacity of pub-lic and privateentities.• Families withmultiple appli-cants seekingeligibility mayface chal-lenges in pay-ing application

fees, estimated at nearly $500 per person. Immigrants not familiar with the procedures and proposedimmigration policy may fall prey to fraud or exploitation forunscrupulous financial gain.

The undocumented population grew in every state in theMidwest between the 1990s and the 2000s; the regiongained more than 1 million undocumented immigrants be-tween 1990 and 2010. Many of the individuals eligible forthese new programs – especially adults who are older andout of school – may be less integrated into their communitiesthan were the youth eligible for the original DACA program in2012, underscoring the need for service providers to preparein advance.

Though there is not one perfect model, The Chicago Councilon Global Affairs report argues that state and local govern-ments, as well as non-government stakeholders, can learnfrom best practices being implemented throughout the re-gion, many of which are highlighted in the report.

Estados en el Medio Oeste no están dispuestos de manerauniforme para implementar las políticas de inmigración pre-sentados por el presidente Obama, lo que podría poner enriesgo $ 650 millones en ingresos fiscales adicionales parasus gobiernos con problemas de liquidez, según un nuevoinforme de The Chicago Council on Global Affairs.

De hecho, los estados del medio oeste tienen mucho queganar de la implementación exitosa de la acción ejecutivadel presidente. La plena participación de un estimado de579 mil residentes indocumentados elegibles en la regióndel Medio Oeste podría generar $ 652,300,000 en ingresosfiscales durante los próximos cinco años. Solo Illinois se en-cuentra para aumentar sus ingresos fiscales por $ 347 mil-lones en base a un estimado de 281 mil residentesindocumentados elegibles.

Thousands of Mexican farmworkersmarch 15 miles as strike talks continue

Striking farmworkers in Baja Californiamarched by the thousands across 15 dustymiles last March in a peaceful but angryshow of force after growers refused to meettheir demands to boost wages.

The strike, which has crippled this region’sexports to the U.S., shows no signs of end-ing after growers' offer of a 10% raise wasdismissed by workers who earn on average$10 a day. They have dropped their demandfrom 300 pesos ($20) per day to 280($18.50).

Negotiations ended on a sour note on MArch25th amid suspicions by labor leaders thatan industry representative wasn’t forthcom-ing about which agribusinesses he repre-sented.

Leaders suspect that larger agribusinessesin the region, which have deep political ties,are blocking progress and preventing somesmaller growers from accommodating theirdemands.

During the march from the town of VicenteGuerrero to a government building in SanQuintin, protesters allowed cars and trucks

to pass, but their anger was palpable, di-rected at growers and government officials.

BerryMex, a U.S.-owned grower whoseberries are widely distributed in the U.S.under the Driscoll’s label, has denied accu-sations of labor abuses. The company saidin a statement that it opened talks with its la-borers.

“BerryMex has been addressing feedbackfrom our workers with a proactive and mean-ingful dialogue,” the company said. “Theyare optimistic that an agreement will bereached for the benefit of their employeesand the community of San Quintin.”

Alberto Munoz, the attorney for the Agricul-tural Council of Baja California, an associa-tion of growers, wouldn’t say which growershe represented when pressed by labor lead-ers at the meeting Wednesday in the ban-quet hall of a restaurant.

The leaders got a boost when one smallgrower, through an attorney, came forward tosay he was willing to raise salaries for hisworkers to 250 pesos ($16.50) per day. Thegrower, DeWayne Carlos Hafen, co-owner of

Los Molinos Produce, said hedid it for business reasons.

A few hours after coming for-ward, Hafen said he was vis-ited by state inspectorsdemanding to review his em-ployment records. Hafen, whomanages 50 acres and em-ploys about 200 people, saidhe believes it was an attempt to intimidatehim.

The larger growers in the region, he said,have powerful government connections,and he expressed concerns about further ef-forts to silence him and others willing to ac-commodate worker demands.

Las protestas en San Quintín comenzaron alas tres de la madrugada del pasado 17 demarzo. En las delegaciones que conformanel valle, al grito de ¡En lucha por la dignifi-cación de los jornaleros! y ¡El pueblo unidojamás será vencido!, miles de obreros agrí-colas, encabezados por sus dirigentes co-munitarios, se lanzaron sobre la carreteraque cruza la península de Baja California.

Los jornaleros de San Quintín trabajan encondiciones humillantes en fincas que culti-van hortalizas de exportación, fresa, tomate,mora. A cambio de salarios de hambre, lab-oran jornadas de hasta 14 horas diarias sindía semanal de descanso ni, mucho menos,vacaciones o seguridad social. Los capat-aces abusan sexualmente de las mujeres yson obligadas a llevar a sus hijos a los pre-dios para que realicen faenas.

Los jornaleros agrícolas de San Quintín handemostrado a lo largo de esta semana que,en contra de lo que empresarios y políticoscreían, no son desechables. No son sólofuerza de trabajo. Son –como ellos afirman–personas de carne y hueso, trabajadoresconscientes e indígenas orgullosos de suorigen.

We’ve all done it. Do you remem-ber some of the things your mom used to sayto you when you were little? Things like "Don'tmake me stop this car!" or "I'll give you some-thing to cry about," or other things that youfind yourself saying to your own children?

But how many of us, as Latinos,have passed on some of the traditional say-ings that we have heard from our mothers andgrandmothers? These wise and sage sayingsthat they heard from their mothers and grand-mothers that were not so much scoldings asthey were advice passed down from genera-tion to generation.

Judith Valles has done just that.The former Mayor of San Bernardino, Califor-nia has written a book entitled, “As My MotherWould Say – Como Decia Mi Mama”, whichrecounts Spanish sayings, known as dichos,that her mother used to tell her as a child.

Valles says that although her bookcan be used as a valuable tool in developingleadership skills for readers of any ethnicity, it

also contains an important messageof preserving Spanish culture.“This is a reminder of what we as Lati-nos must not lose, and at the sametime a hope that those who are notLatino may develop a better under-standing of us” she says.

Judith Valles was the first Latina tobe elected mayor of a U.S. City over100,000 in population. She was alsothe first Latina president of a Califor-nia community college from 1988-1995. Although her book is aboutthese time-honored Latino dichos thatshe, herself, has applied in her daily

life, it also gives you a look into her familybackground and how her heritage helpedshape her life and her career. She was one ofeight children born to Mexican immigrant par-ents. Though they both only had a sixthgrade education they were determined tosucceed in the United States. Though her fa-ther died at the young age of 45, both parentsinstilled in their children the importance of ed-ucation. All but two of their children receivedcollege degrees. They encountered racismand hatred, but also managed to succeed inchanging policies and how minorities wereperceived and treated.

Throughout the years, Valles hasused her mother’s “dichos” in situations withfriends, colleagues and coworkers, prefacingthem with “As my mother used to say.” Theyoften found these sayings endearing andpriceless, encouraging her to write themdown, which led to the idea for her book.

Here she lists some of the sayings,as well as the literal translations and situations

to which they could be or have been applied.For example, she lists number one as “Locortes no quita lo valiente,” meaning “Cour-tesy does not take away courage.” Shewrites, “In other words, maintain your compo-sure, and there is no need for harsh words orexpletives.” This particular dicho is one shesays has been invaluable to her during tryingtimes, and especially with difficult people, inher professional career.

This is a very interesting read, bothinformative and amusing. Some of these youmay have heard before, others you may not,but a lot will make you smile, and perhapsmake you want to pass them on to the nextgeneration.

As My Mother Would Say: ComoDecia Mi Mama is available in softcover ande-book through Amazon, Barnes & Noble andiUniverse.

Todos nos hemos hecho. ¿Recuer-das algunas de las cosas que tu madre solíadecirte cuando eras pequeño? Cosas como"No me hagas par este coche!" o "Te voy adar una razón para llorar", u otras cosas quete encuentras diciendo a sus propios hijos.

Pero, ¿cuántos de nosotros, comolatinos, han pasado algunos de los dichostradicionales que hemos oído de nuestrasmadres y abuelas? Estos dichos sabios ysabias que escucharon de sus madres yabuelas que no eran tantos regaños comoestaban consejos pasan de generación engeneración.

Judith Valles ha hecho justamenteeso. El ex alcalde de San Bernardino, Califor-nia, ha escrito un libro titulado: As My MotherWould Say: Como Decia Mi Mama, que relata

los refranes españoles,conocidos como los di-chos, que su madresolía decirle cuando eraniño.

Valles diceque aunque su libro puede ser utilizado comouna herramienta valiosa en el desarrollo dehabilidades de liderazgo para los lectores decualquier etnia, también contiene un mensajeimportante de la preservación de la culturaespañola.

Judith Valles fue la primera latinaen ser elegida alcalde de una ciudad de losEstados Unidos con más de 100.000 en lapoblación. También fue la primera presidentalatina de un colegio comunitario de California1988 a 1995. Aunque su libro es acerca deestos los dichos latinos consagrados por eltiempo que ella misma se ha aplicado en suvida diaria, sino que también le da una mi-rada en sus antecedentes familiares y cómosu patrimonio ayudó a dar forma a su vida ysu carrera. Ella fue uno de los ocho hijosnacidos de padres inmigrantes mexicanos. A lo largo de los años, Valles ha utilizado "di-chos" de su madre en situaciones con ami-gos, colegas y compañeros de trabajo,anteponiendo a ellos con "Como mi madresolía decir." Se encuentran a menudo estaspalabras entrañable y no tiene precio, ani-mándola a escribirlas, que llevado a la ideade su libro.

La Reina boliviana del boxeo Jennifer Salinas 16-3 (4ko)fue el centro de atención la noche del pasado viernes20 de Marzo en la casa de Martin West Manoren de Bal-timore Maryland, al obtener en una gran batalla boxís-tica su segundo campeonato mundial y primero de la(UBF) Federación de Boxeo Universal, en diferente cate-goría ante la estadounidense Ángel Gladney.

En una de las peleas más atractivas de la noche enBaltimor, la campeona mundial “La Reina Boliviana”

salió a su combate a dar el todo por el todo y con lamente puesta en ese segundo fajín que tanto había

soñado, pero primero tendría que derrotar a surival en turno Gladney quien salió con las mismaganas de triunfar.

Jennifer con una estrategia ya programadapara este combate, se vio en la necesidad derealizar algunos cambios ya que desde la

campanada inicial su oponente salió como untoro de lidia y con la disposición de arrebatarle la

Allí donde toda la atención seconcentra por parte de los medios de prensa y por ellola mayor cantidad de patrocinios. Para un atleta es muyimportante que dichos medios nos den cobertura PRE-COMPETICIÓN, así llamamos la atención de posiblespatrocinadores, BRILLARON POR SU AUSENCIA.

A majority of English-speakingHispanics in the U.S. are bilingual (Pew Report)

A majority of English-speaking Hispanics in the U.S. are bilin-gual according to new Pew Research Center Report released

About six-in-ten U.S. adult Hispanics (62%) speak English orare bilingual, according to an analysis of the Pew ResearchCenter’s 2013 National Survey of Latinos. Hispanics in theUnited States break down into three groups when it comes totheir use of language: 36% are bilingual, 25% mainly useEnglish and 38% mainly use Spanish. Among those whospeak English, 59% are bilingual.

Latino adults who are the children of immigrant parents aremost likely to be bilingual. Among this group, 50% are bilin-gual, according to our 2013 survey. As of 2012, Latinos withimmigrant parents (defined as those born outside the U.S. orthose born in Puerto Rico) made up roughly half (48%) of allU.S.-born Hispanics. By comparison, a third (35%) of His-panic immigrants are bilingual, as are a quarter (23%) ofthose with U.S.-born parents.

Widespread bilingualism has the potential to affectfuture generations of Latinos, a population that isamong the fastest growing in the nation. Our 2011surveyshowed that Latino adults valued both theability to speak English and to speak Spanish.Fully 87% said Latino immigrants need to learnEnglish to succeed. At the same time, nearly all(95%) said it is important for future generations ofU.S. Hispanics to speak Spanish.

Bilingualism is measured in our National Surveysof Latinos by asking Hispanic adults to self-assess

their language abilities. Respondents rated their ability tocarry on a conversation in Spanish and how well they canread a book or newspaper written in Spanish. The samequestions are posed about their English-speaking ability.Bilingualism is linked to age. Some 42% of Hispanics ages 18to 29 are bilingual. That share falls to about a third amongHispanics ages 30 to 49 and ages 50 to 64, but rises again,to 40%, among those ages 65 and older.

Due in part to bilingualism, in 2013 Spanish was the mostspoken non-English language in the U.S., used by 35.8 mil-lion Hispanics in the U.S. plus an additional 2.6 million non-Hispanics. Overall, three-in-four Hispanics (73%) ages 5 andolder speak Spanish in their homes, when including thosewho are bilingual.

Given the expected demographic changes, what is the futureof language use among Hispanics in the United States? Ac-cording to Census Bureau projections, the share of Hispanics

who speak only English at home will rise from 26% in 2013 to34% in 2020. Over this time period, the share who speakSpanish at home will decrease from 73% to 66%.

And as a sign of the times, Spanglish, an informal hybrid ofboth languages, is widely used among Hispanics ages 16 to25. Among these young Hispanics, 70% report using Spang-lish, according to an analysis we did in 2009..Una mayoría de habla inglesa hispanos en los EE.UU. sonbilingües según el Centro de Investigación Pew nuevo in-forme publicado

Cerca de seis de cada diez adultos hispanos de EstadosUnidos (62%) hablan Inglés o son bilingües, según unanálisis de 2013 Encuesta Nacional de Latinos del Centrode Investigación Pew. Los hispanos en los Estados Unidosse dividen en tres grupos a la hora de su uso del lenguaje:el 36% son bilingües, el 25% utiliza principalmente Inglés yel 38% utiliza principalmente español. Entre los que hablanInglés, el 59% son bilingües.

Adultos latinos que son los hijos de padres inmigrantestienen más probabilidades de ser bilingüe. Entre estegrupo, el 50% son bilingües, según nuestra encuesta de2013. A partir de 2012, los latinos con padres inmigrantes(definidos como aquellos nacidos fuera de los EE.UU. o losnacidos en Puerto Rico), formado por aproximadamente lamitad (48%) de los hispanos nacidos en Estados Unidos.En comparación, un tercio (35%) de los inmigrantes his-panos son bilingües, al igual que una cuarta parte (23%) deaquellos con padres nacidos en Estados Unidos.

“Este premio es un homenaje a su imagi-nación sin límites y su profundoconocimiento de la historia del cine. Del Toroes a la vez un gran maestro; vamos a teneruna noche muy divertida con él aquí”, dijoNoah Cowan, director ejecutivo de la So-ciedad de Cine de San Francisco.

Guillermo estrenará el 16 de octubre de esteaño su nueva cinta ‘Crimson Peak’.

"This award is atribute to his boundless imagination and tohis deep understanding of cinema history.Del Toro is both a great teacher and a bois-terous communicator of why movies matter.We are going to have a very fun night withhim here indeed."

Mientras Jennifer Lopez se pasea por la Ciudad de México, elprograma American Idol presenta un video en donde se le puedever cantando el tema de Home: No Hay Lugar Como El Hogar,"Feel The Light".

Más sexy que nunca, Jennifer Lopez se mostró con un espectac-ular atuendo blanco, al mismo tiempo que se ponía manos a laobra para interpretar el tema de la cinta que también protagonizajunto a Rihanna y Jim Parsons.

En el clip de casi 4 minutos, dado a conocer por el programa,Jennifer Lopez cautiva a la audiencia con un tema que sin dudaestará en la mente de muchos cuando se estrene la película.

¿Pero de qué se trata Home: No Hay Lugar Como El Hogar?

Cuando la tierra es colonizada por los Buv, una raza con muchaautoestima en búsqueda de un nuevo lugar al que llaman hogar,todos los humanos son rápidamente reubicados mientras los Buvreorganizan el planeta.

Pero entonces, una chica muy ingeniosa, Tip, evita ser capturada.Poco tiempo después, la historia la lleva a ser una cómplice ca-sual de un Buv venido a menos llamado Oh. A través de este

viaje increíble, los dos fugitivos desarrollan una relación inter-galáctica.

She's certified pop music royalty and Jennifer Lopez certainlylooked like a princess on American Idol last March.

The 45-year-old beauty stunned the crowd with a debut perform-ance of Feel The Light from the new animated movie Home.

The usually high-octane dancer was motionless in an expansivewhite dress that spread out around her on the floor.

In the sneak peek, JLo rocks a tight, white getup, while silver starssurround her gorgeous eyes. She also sports a knee-length braid,which she puts on full displays as she turns around to point herbooty towards the camera.

We were told by Mariel that “a white short-sleeved version of thedress Jennifer wore on American Idol,” will be seen in the video.(So cool!)

Honestly, there’s not one thing JLo can’t do. She’s amazing andshe’s always one step ahead of everyone else in the game.

Chronic medical conditions—including car-diovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, anddepression—cause more than half of alldeaths worldwide. These long-term dis-eases affect people of all ages, both richand poor, in every ethnic group. Manychronic diseases have genetic compo-nents, which raise disease risk in certainpeople or populations. The environmentcan also contribute to risk, and so canlifestyle choices, including your diet, physi-cal activity, and whether or not you smoke.

What Is Asthma?Asthma is a lung disease that inflames andnarrows the airways, causing wheezing,chest tightness, shortness of breath, andcoughing at night or early morning. It startsmostly in childhood but affects all agegroups. Some 24.6 million Americans haveasthma, seven million of them children.Asthma is a chronic—long-term—disease.

Asthma rates vary within the Hispanic pop-ulation. Several studies have shown thatPuerto Ricans have the highest number ofHispanic asthma cases, with 16.1 percent,and Mexican-Americans have the lowest,with 5.4 percent.

OverviewAirways are tubes that carry air into and outof your lungs. People with asthma have in-flamed airways. They are swollen, very sen-sitive, and tend to react strongly to someinhaled substances.

When airways react, surrounding musclestighten, airways narrow, and less air flowsinto the lungs. Swelling can worsen, makingairways even narrower. There may be moremucus than normal, causing further narrow-ing.

It's important to treat symptoms whenthey first appear to prevent them fromgetting worse and causing severe at-tacks. Severe attacks require emer-gency care and can be fatal.

Fast Facts-Asthma is a chronic (long-term) lungdisease that inflames and narrows theairways. The exact cause is unknown.There is no cure.Asthma most often starts during child-hood. Of the 24.6 million Americans af-fected, nearly seven million arechildren.-Asthma causes wheezing, chest tight-ness, shortness of breath, and cough-ing at night or early morning.-Asthma is diagnosed based on yourmedical history, a physical exam, andtest results. Diagnosis is difficult inchildren under five.-You must actively manage yourasthma, get ongoing care, and watchfor signs it is worsening.-Exercise is an asthma trigger, but do notavoid it. Physical activity is important forhealth.

Las afecciones médicas crónicas, in-cluyendo la enfermedad cardiovascular, elcáncer, la diabetes y la depresión, provo-can más de la mitad de todas las muertesen el mundo entero. Estas enfermedadesde largo plazo afectan a personas de todaslas edades, tanto ricos como pobres, entodos los grupos étnicos. Muchas enfer-medades crónicas tienen componentesgenéticos, que elevan el riesgo de teneruna enfermedad en ciertas personas opoblaciones. El entorno también puedecontribuir a ese riesgo, al igual que las op-ciones que usted elija en cuanto a su estilo

de vida; por ejemplo, su dieta, hacer activi-dad física y si fuma o no.

¿Qué es el asma?El asma es una enfermedad de los pul-mones que inflama las vías respiratorias ylas vuelve más angostas, lo que provocasilbidos al respirar, sensación de opresiónen el pecho, falta de aire y tos por la nocheo temprano en la mañana. Suele comenzaren la niñez, pero afecta a personas detodas las edades. Alrededor de 24.6 mil-lones de estadounidenses tienen asma,siete millones de los cuales son niños. Elasma es una enfermedad crónica; es decir,de largo plazo.

Los índices de asma varían dentro de lapoblación hispana. Existendiferentes estudios quedemuestran que los por-torriqueños tienen lamayor cantidad de casosde asma, con el 16.1 porciento, mientras que losestadounidenses mexi-canos tienen la menorcantidad, con el 5.4 porciento.

Información generalLas vías respiratorias sontubos que llevan el airehacia los pulmones ydesde los pulmones haciaafuera del cuerpo. Lagente con asma tiene lasvías respiratorias infla-madas. Están hinchadas,muy sensibles y tienden areaccionar fuertementecuando se inhalan ciertassustancias.

Cuando las vías respirato-rias reaccionan, los mús-culos que las rodean se

tensan, las vías respiratorias se hacen másangostas y, entonces, es menor la cantidadde aire que puede pasar a los pulmones.Esa hinchazón puede empeorar, y las víasrespiratorias volverse aún más estrechas.Es posible que haya más mucosidad que lonormal, lo que las estrecha todavía más.

Es importante que trate los síntomascuando recién aparecen para evitar queempeoren y puedan ocasionar un ataquegrave. Los ataques graves requieren deatención médica de emergencia y puedenser fatales.

Want to feel better, have more energy and perhaps even livelonger? Look no further than exercise. The health benefits ofregular exercise and physical activity are hard to ignore. Andthe benefits of exercise are yours for the taking, regardless ofyour age, sex or physical ability. Need more convincing to ex-ercise? Check out these seven ways exercise can improveyour life.

No. 1: Exercise controls weightExercise can help prevent excess weight gain or help maintainweight loss. When you engage in physical activity, you burncalories. The more intense the activity, the more calories youburn. You don't need to set aside large chunks of time for exer-cise to reap weight-loss benefits. If you can't do an actualworkout, get more active throughout the day in simple ways —by taking the stairs instead of the elevator or revving up yourhousehold chores.

No. 2: Exercise combats health conditions and diseasesWorried about heart disease? Hoping to prevent high bloodpressure? No matter what your current weight, being activeboosts high-density lipoprotein (HDL), or "good," cholesteroland decreases unhealthy triglycerides. This one-two punchkeeps your blood flowing smoothly, which decreases your riskof cardiovascular diseases. In fact, regular physical activitycan help you prevent or manage a wide range of health prob-lems and concerns, including stroke, metabolic syndrome,type 2 diabetes, depression, certain types of cancer, arthritisand falls.

No. 3: Exercise improves moodNeed an emotional lift? Or need to blow off some steam after astressful day? A workout at the gym or a brisk 30-minute walkcan help. Physical activity stimulates various brain chemicalsthat may leave you feeling happier and more relaxed. You mayalso feel better about your appearance and yourself when youexercise regularly, which can boost your confidence and im-prove your self-esteem.

No. 4: Exercise boosts energyWinded by grocery shopping or household chores? Regularphysical activity can improve your muscle strength and boostyour endurance. Exercise and physical activity deliver oxygenand nutrients to your tissues and help your cardiovascular sys-tem work more efficiently. And when your heart and lungs workmore efficiently, you have more energy to go about your dailychores.

No. 5: Exercise promotes better sleepStruggling to fall asleep? Or to stay asleep? Regular physicalactivity can help you fall asleep faster and deepen your sleep.Just don't exercise too close to bedtime, or you may be tooenergized to fall asleep.

No. 6: Exercise puts the spark back into your sex lifeDo you feel too tired or too out of shape to enjoy physical inti-macy? Regular physical activity can leave you feeling ener-gized and looking better, which may have a positive effect onyour sex life. But there's more to it than that. Regular physicalactivity can lead to enhanced arousal for women. And menwho exercise regularly are less likely to have problems witherectile dysfunction than are men who don't exercise.

No. 7: Exercise can be funExercise and physical activity can be a fun way to spendsome time. It gives you a chance to unwind, enjoy the out-doors or simply engage in activities that make you happy.Physical activity can also help you connect with family orfriends in a fun social setting. So, take a dance class, hit the

hiking trails or join a soccer team.Find a physical activity you enjoy,and just do it. If you get bored, trysomething new.

1: El ejercicio controla el pesoEl ejercicio puede ayudar a pre-venir el exceso de peso o ayudara mantener la pérdida de peso. Alparticipar en la actividad física, aquemar calorías. Cuanto más in-tensa sea la actividad, más calorías se queman. Si usted nopuede hacer un entrenamiento real, obtener más activo du-rante todo el día de manera simple - al tomar las escaleras envez del ascensor o aceleramiento de sus tareas domésticas.

No. 2: El ejercicio combate las condiciones de salud y enfer-medadesPreocupado por las enfermedades del corazón? Con la esper-anza de prevenir la presión arterial alta? No im-porta cuál sea su peso actual, siendo activasaumenta la lipoproteína de alta densidad (HDL),o "bueno", el colesterol y disminuye los triglicéri-dos no saludables. La actividad física regularpuede ayudar a prevenir o gestionar una ampliagama de problemas y problemas de salud.

No. 3: El ejercicio mejora el estado de ánimoUna sesión de ejercicios en el gimnasio o unacaminata rápida de 30 minutos a pie puede ayu-dar. La actividad física estimula varias sustanciasquímicas del cerebro que pueden hacer que tesientas más feliz y más relajado. También puedesentirse mejor acerca de su apariencia ya símisma cuando se hace ejercicio con regularidad,lo que puede aumentar su confianza y mejorarsu autoestima.

Nº 4: El ejercicio aumenta la energíaLa actividad física regular puede mejorar sufuerza muscular y aumentar su resistencia. Elejercicio y la actividad física proporcionanoxígeno y nutrientes a los tejidos y ayudan a quesu sistema funcione cardiovascular más efi-ciente.

Nº 5: El ejercicio promueve un mejor sueñoLa actividad física regular puede ayudarle aquedarse dormido más rápido y profundizar susueño. Eso sí, no hace ejercicio demasiadocerca de la hora de acostarse, o puede ser de-masiado excitado para conciliar el sueño.

Nº 6: Ejercicio pone la chispa de nuevo en suvida sexualLa actividad física regular puede hacer que tesientas lleno de energía y con mejor aspecto,que puede tener un efecto positivo en su vidasexual. Pero hay más que eso. La actividad físicaregular puede conducir a una mayor excitaciónpara las mujeres.

Nº 7: El ejercicio puede ser divertidoEl ejercicio y la actividad física puede ser unaforma divertida de pasar el tiempo.
