COLUMBUS, Nov. 20,2008 (AP): A federal judgein Columbus ruled Thursdaythat disputed provisionalballots must be counted inone of the nation’s final un-decided congressionalraces.
The decision by U.S. Dis-trict Judge Algenon Marbleyhas the potential to affect theoutcome of the race betweenRepublican Steve Stivers andDemocrat Mary Jo Kilroy inthe 15th District. However,his ruling was immediatelyappealed and provisional-vote counting was put onhold for another week.
Stivers’ lead grew to 479votes over Kilroy on Thurs-day, after one of three coun-ties in the district finished itsofficial count. The two arerunning to succeed retiringRepublican Deborah Pryce,who only narrowly beatKilroy in 2006.
The case before Marbleyinvolved ballots cast inFranklin County, the largestand most Democrat-leaningin the district.
“This case touches on themost fundamental of rightsof American citizens: theright to vote,” Marbley said.
Provisional ballots areissued at polls to people whobelieve they have beenwrongly denied the right tovote. About 1,000 ballots arein dispute in the House racebecause of defects such asvoters failing to both printand sign their names.
Nov. 21, 2008 (AP): Ifshe becomes President-elect Barack Obama’shomeland security (DHS)chief, Arizona Gov. JanetNapolitano will find her-self in a position to changesome of the federal immi-gration policies that shehas railed against.
As leader of a statewith the busiest undocu-mented-path into theUnited States, Napolitanohas complained repeat-edly that the federal gov-ernment had shirked itsduty to secure the borderand therefore dumped thecosts of immigration onArizona.
After declaring a stateof emergency due toproblems at border, theDemocrat proposed put-ting National Guardtroops at the internationalboundary, four monthsbefore President Bushtook up a similar idea.
She tried, in vain, toget the feds to pay $500million for the un-reim-bursed costs of imprison-ing undocumented immi-grants convicted ofcrimes. And she com-plained that a federalagency responsible for in-vestigating smugglingfailed to adequately staffits Arizona operation andhad a revolving door ofleadership.
“We are going to stepup and protect our citi-zens when the federalgovernment fails them—but this is a federal prob-lem, and we expect thefederal government to doits part,” Napolitano saidin announcing a $100 mil-lion state immigration
plan in 2006.She is Obama’s likely
pick to run the HomelandSecurity Department.While the department isresponsible for a range ofduties unrelated to immi-gration—such as protect-ing the president and coor-dinating disaster re-sponse—it runs three im-migration agencies.
Supporters in Arizonasay Napolitano appreciatesthe complexity of immigra-tion. Critics say she tries tostraddle a fine political linein a state frustrated by itsleaky border.
Unlike her immediatepredecessors, Napolitanofaced heavy pressure toconfront the state’s borderproblems, even though im-migration had long beenconsidered the sole respon-sibility of the federal gov-ernment.
Early on, she resistedinitial efforts on a statecrackdown on undocu-mented immigration, butshe went on to build a recordon immigration. To manypeople in immigrationcircles, her views on thesubject are difficult to pi-geonhole.
Democratic state Rep.Steve Gallardo of Phoenix,an advocate for expandedguestworker programs forimmigrants, saidNapolitano’s immigrationviews strike a balance be-tween border security andpractical attempts at con-fronting the economic mo-tive to sneak across the bor-der. “She has knowledge ofwhat needs to be done,”Gallardo said.
Republican state Rep.John Kavanagh of Foun-
tain Hills, whose day la-bor restrictions proposalwas vetoed by Napolitanolast year, said it would beuseful for a DHS boss tohave lived in a borderstate, but philosophy onconfronting immigrationwoes is a far more neces-sary quality.
The governor is neitheran immigration hawk, noran open-border advocate,Kavanagh said, pointingout that she wanted Na-tional Guard troops at theborder but also vetoed anexpansion of the list ofgovernment benefits de-nied to immigrants. “Hersympathy for illegalaliens reduces her enthu-siasm for border secu-rity,” Kavanagh said.
Hector Yturralde,president of the Latinocivil rights group SomosAmerica and a critic ofNapolitano’s approval ofa state law that bans thehiring of undocumentedimmigrant, saidNapolitano’s nuanced im-migration positions are areflection of being thegovernor in a state whereher Democratic party isoutnumbered by Repub-licans.
“She is not a hardlineron that issue one way orthe other,” Yturralde said.
Marbley’s ruling came ina lawsuit filed last week bysupporters of Stivers, whoargued the ballots were in-valid because they were miss-ing either a printed name ora signature, or the two wereinterchanged on ballot en-velopes.
In his ruling, the judgesaid the plaintiffs never dis-puted that the voters whoused the provisional ballotswere eligible, properly reg-istered and voted in the cor-rect precinct, and that notcounting the ballots woulddisenfranchise legitimatevoters. His ruling sides withSecretary of State JenniferBrunner, who had said theballots should be countedbecause the problems weredue to poll worker error.
“We are pleased that thecourt recognizes the clear,consistent guidance Secre-tary Brunner provided priorto Election Day,” saidBrunner spokesman JeffOrtega. “These pre-electiondirectives were issued un-der court order and in keep-ing with federal and statelaw.”
Punctuating his rulingwith a reading of Ohio’svoter fraud statute, Marbleycalled unfounded the plain-tiffs’ contention that allow-ing the disputed ballots to becounted would promotefraud. He said election offi-cials have ways to double-check the validity of all thedisputed votes.
The plaintiffs filed theirappeal Thursday with the 6thU.S. Circuit Court of Appealsin Cincinnati within minutesof Marbley’s ruling, and hegranted an injunction to pre-vent ballots from bringcounted until 9 a.m. Nov. 28.
Marbley said he doubtsthe appeals court will reversehim, because he used sea-soned legal arguments andfavored voter enfranchise-ment. But he worried deny-ing the stay could be misin-terpreted by voters as sup-pression.
“If a decision is charac-terized as disenfranchisingeven one voter, in a verypersonal way I would feel Ihad done a disservice to ju-risprudence,” he said.
Though the lawsuit per-tains to only about 1,000questioned ballots in theHouse race, it affects thecounting of all 27,306 of thecounty’s outstanding provi-sional ballots. That is be-cause no provisional ballotcan be counted until the rulesare determined for them all.
In addition to the U.S.House race, the uncountedballots could play a role intwo state House races.
The Ohio vote is one ofthree U.S. House races stillup in the air nationwide.

Hospice of Northwest Ohio turned my doubt into trust.
“I was very protective of my father, especially after his health failed. I wasn’t going to allow just anybody to
come in to provide care for him.
“Our family didn’t have the resources to hire a private nurse. But together, we decided to contact Hospice
of Northwest Ohio.
“When Hospice came into our home, I just sat back and checked them out. They always explained to
us what they were going to do and how they were going to do it. And the level of care was awesome.
Hospice provided nursing care, aides to help in the home, plus all the medications and equipment my
dad needed.
“All the services Hospice provided were covered by Medicare.* I don’t think a lot of people are aware of
the excellent care available. Families in situations like ours need to call Hospice of Northwest Ohio.”
To ask for our free DVD, “Hospice Answers,” call 419-661-4001. Or for more information, visit hospicenwo.org.
*Hospice care is covered by Medicare, Medicaid and most insurance. No one is turned away due to inability to pay.

MEXICO, el 20 denoviembre del 2008 (AP):El premio Nobel de químicamexicano Mario Molina seintegró al equipo detransición del presidenteelecto Barack Obama paraayudar a delinear laspolíticas científicas delnuevo gobiernoestadounidense, incluidaslas estrategias paraenfrentar el cambioclimático.
“Vamos a prepararestrategias para quecomience con la mayorrapidez posible, con lamayor efectividad, la nuevaadministración delpresidente Obama”, dijo ala AP Molina, quien juntocon tres científicosestadounidenses participaen el comité de ciencia ytecnología del equipo detransición.
El Nobel de química1995 y experto en cambioclimático comentó que en-tre los temas a desarrollarse encuentran lasestrategias para reducir laemisión de gases de efectoinvernadero, políticas quepermitirían investi-gaciones con célulasmadres y un aumento de lasinversiones para la ciencia.
“El del cambio climáticoes un problema serioambiental que no había sidoreconocido por laadministración delpresidente (George W.)Bush, aunque en losúltimos años sí, pero lo quequiere hacer el presidente
Obama es tomar pasos muyimportantes para enfrentar elproblema”, dijo vía telefónicaMolina, que ya habíacolaborado en la asesoríacientífica del gobierno deltambién demócrata BillClinton.
“Específicamente encambio climático eseliderazgo de Estados Unidoses fundamental para querealmente haya un acuerdointernacional”, añadióMolina, integrante del PanelIntergubernamental sobreCambio Climático.
Pese a ser uno de los paísesque emite más gases de efectoinvernadero, Estados Unidosse ha mostrado renuente aestablecer metas específicasde reducción, aunque ahoraObama se ha comprometidoa modificar esa posición.
Estados Unidos no ratificóel llamado Protocolo de Kiotode 1997, el cual expira en el2012, entre otras razonesporque este documento nopedía ningún compromisopara reducir emisiones anaciones en desarrollo comoChina e India, otros de lospaíses más contaminantes.
A nivel mundial sediscutirá en el 2009 unasegunda fase del protocoloque permita incluircompromisos de las nacionesen desarrollo.
El protocolo exige a lospaíses industrializadosreducir hacia el 2012 lasemisiones de gases en un 5%por debajo del nivel de 1990.
Obama reiteró esta semanasu respaldo al

establecimiento de límitesa las emisiones de gases deefecto invernadero. Hadicho que impulsaría unplan para reducir hacia el2020 las emisiones a losniveles de 1990 ydisminuirlas en otro 80%para el 2050.
“Es un problema muyserio (el cambio climático),el problema más serioambiental que tiene lahumanidad hoy en día”,dijo Molina.
El científico, que norecibirá ningunaremuneración por susservicios, confió que susrecomendaciones puedanser útiles para el nuevogobierno.
“Como equipo detransición, y sin sermiembros del gobierno, notenemos la pretensión deque nuestras decisionessean las que se van a llevara cabo, pero si lopresentamos y hacemosbien, tenemos laexpectativa de que nuestracontribución vaya a ser útil,por ejemplo para nombrarel asesor científico, ensugerir qué se hace encambio climático”, añadió.

LIMA, el 23 de noviembredel 2008 (AP): El presidenteAlan García, conocido por suincansable oratoria y en lacumbre Asia-Pacífico (APEC)por su entusiasta forma desaludar a sus interlocutoresasiáticos poco acostumbradosa prolongados sacudones demano, habló el domingo enmedio de una veintena degobernantes y los arengócomo competidores de unagran maratón.
“ !Vamos a ganarle a lacrisis!”, empezó. Y entoncesfijó una fecha: 18 meses.
Fuentes allegadas aalgunas delegacionesparticipantes dijeron queGarcía puso ese plazoinconsultamente en ladeclaración financiera. Pero,otras dijeron que sí lo consultó.Todas, sin embargo,coincidieron en que quisomostrar protagonismo paradarle a la cumbre un tono dediscusión algo diferente deotras, que terminan condeclaraciones vagas y, segúnel propio García, contribu-
yendo a la incertidumbre quelos motivó a reunirse.
García, quien en los años80 dirigió el país por primeravez con una marcada políticaizquierdista de intervencióndel estado en la economía yque incluyó la nacionalizaciónde los bancos, se consolidó enesta cumbre como un adalidde mercados abiertos ytratados de libre comercio y,por cierto, como incansableorador para quien no existendiscursos escritos.
“Vamos a descongelarmercados”, fue otra de susfrases dichas con energía porel gobernante de 59 años en laceremonia de clausura.
“Vamos a denunciar elproteccionismo dondeaparezca”, continuó.
“Vamos a evitar la recesiónque amenaza al mundo”,también dijo.
El gobernante peruanoexplicó que la recesión seráevitada “impulsando cada unode nosotros el gasto fiscal, demanera contracíclica eninfraestructura en ayuda so-cial”.
“Creemos que elinstrumento fundamental deldesarrollo, el empleo y laasistencia a los más necesitadoses la inversión y el librecomercio”, afirmó.
Asimismo, señaló que loslíderes de APEC tenían laconvicción de que lahumanidad posee recursosfinancieros “extraordinariosnunca antes tenidos” como parapoder superar la turbulenciaeconómica global.
“Por sobre todo expresamosal mundo desde aquí, desde elPerú de Machu Picchu, queconfiamos firmemente en lahumanidad y sus capacidades,que no nos rendimos ante lacrisis de incertidumbre o frenteal pánico de quienes no tienenesa confianza”, sostuvo.
Hablando de los temasinternos de APEC, Garcíaexpresó el respaldo de lospaíses del Asia-Pacífico a lacontinuación del proceso deintegración de la región.
En ese sentido dijo quesaludaban que otros tres países—Perú, Estados Unidos y Aus-tralia— se hayan integrado alllamado P-4, un grupo de paísesde APEC comprometidos ennegociar un acuerdo de librecomercio.

WASHINGTON, Nov.23, 2008 (AP): President-elect Barack Obama’s topadviser has a warning forU.S. automakers: Withouta plan to retool and restruc-ture, there is very little tax-payers can do to help.
U.S. Congress last weekrefused to act on a bailoutplan for the Detroit Threeauto companies. Lawmak-ers are demanding thatcompany executives firstexplain how they would re-organize themselves andmake the industry viable.
Obama adviser DavidAxelrod says Congress issending the right signal tothe industry. He appeared
on two Sunday talk showbroadcasts.
The automakers had askedfor at least a $25 billion res-cue. Obama has supported giv-ing the industry a hand, buthas said he would not supporta “blank check.”
The fate of the auto indus-try is among the most pressingeconomic issues facing theincoming Obama administra-tion. Congress last week re-buffed appeals for help fromexecutives from General Mo-tors Corp., Chrysler LLC andFord Motor Co. Congressionalleaders urged them to returnnext month with a specific re-organization plan that spelledout how much money they

sure we reach our goal ofproviding a CASA to ev-ery child who needs one.”
Friends of CASA is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, foundedin 1999 to provide fundingand outreach on behalf ofneglected and abused chil-dren in collaboration withthe Washtenaw CountyCASA (Court AppointedSpecial Advocates) Pro-gram.

Axelrod said “the signalsent by Congress was theright one.”
The auto executives didnot make a strong impres-sion during congressionalhearings last week—appear-ances that were further un-dermined upon news thatthey had flown to Washing-ton in private, corporate jets.
Axelrod couldn’t resisttaking a jab at the execu-tives.
“I hope that they willcome back to Washingtonin early December—oncommercial flights—with aplan,” he said.
Web pages, Second Life,3-D animation, and computerforensics are just a few of theinformation technology areasthat over 250 girls in grades7-10 recently explored as partof an interactive professionalconference at Owens Com-munity College’s Toledo-areaand Findlay-area campuses.

For Franciss Lockett of To-ledo, the opportunity to par-ticipate in a variety of informa-tion technology educationalactivities meant a day of “cool”exploration on computers.
“I really like to learn abouttechnology and enjoy experi-menting with new things onthe computer,” said Lockett,an eighth grade student atLeverette Junior High School.“I want to become a teachersomeday and really feel it’simportant to incorporate tech-nology into education.”
Throughout the event, con-ference attendees had the op-portunity to explore a widevariety of career paths andvocations in information tech-nology, including 3-D anima-tion using the ALICE Program-ming Language, Second Life,ePortfolios (Findlay-area Cam-pus), wikis and blogs (Findlay-area Campus), Microsoft Of-fice 2007 (Toledo-area Cam-pus), personal web page de-sign (Toledo-area Campus),Photoshop skills (Toledo-areaCampus), computer forensics(Toledo-area Campus), com-puter diagnostics (Toledo-areaCampus), and computer secu-rity (Toledo-area Campus).
In addition to the lectureportion of each session, thestudents were given a projectto complete in order to furtherlearn the concepts beingtaught. Sessions were taughtby various members of Owens’information technology andelectronics faculty and staff,among others.
Students had time duringlunch to meet individuals fromlocal businesses and ask themquestions concerning their pro-fessions; also, they receivedinformation on how to go about

Nov. 28, 2008: TheLatino Student Union, anorganization with an aimof providing a communityand support for Latino stu-dents as well as culturalawareness at the Univer-sity of Toledo, is in fullswing this fall semester.
Under the advisementof Sabina Elizondo-Serratos, who also servesas the Director of the Of-fice of Latino Initiativesat UT, President JoséLópez and LSU membershave been organizing sev-eral fundraising events ofwhich the group will usethe proceeds to fund itsannual scholarshipbaile—its 36th!
Although the dance isseveral months away, witha possible date of Febru-ary 14, 2009, LSU is al-ready in the planningstages, working on book-ing a band for the event,López informed this re-porter.
Only fundraising dol-lars are used to make ar-rangements for this baile,so fundraising is a highpriority for the organiza-tion.
Their most recentfundraiser occurred thispast Friday—a burritosale, where one couldplace an order with a LSUmember and the members
themselves assembled theburritos at El Sueño, a localMexican restaurant on WestLaskey Road in Toledo. Itwas also at El Sueño that theorganization hosted an OhioState vs. Michigan party onSaturday, Nov. 22.
The organization, for-merly known as“Movimiento EstudiantilChicano de Aztlán – LatinoStudent Union” was co-founded in 1972 by MaríaRodríguez-Winters and be-came an official UT organi-zation a year later. It wasn’tuntil 2003 that the name waschanged to simply the LatinoStudent Union.
LSU has approximately80 active members, accord-ing to López.
The Latino Student Unionis leadership-oriented, asLSU is prominent in the com-munity for their volunteerefforts as well as fundraisingfor scholarships, which areawarded to current studentsat the university.
Many of its members arealso involved in the Primosprogram, a peer-mentor pro-gram for Latinos at UT, whichpairs a younger student witha more experienced student,who knows the way of uni-versity life and can impartsome wisdom in that respect.The group will have a spe-cial retreat on Dec. 5, 2008,in Rocky’s Attic, on the third
floor in the Main CampusStudent Union.
Representatives ofLSU often visit local highschools throughout thespring and fall semestersin order to showcase theorganization and to con-nect with incoming stu-dents. Representatives ofLSU and Primos visitedWhitmer High School thispast Thursday and haveplans to visit several oth-ers throughout the schoolyear.
A weekly study-tablefor LSU, hosted by UT’sMulticultural Office,helps these students fo-cus on their studies andget any academic helpthey need from eithereach other or outside men-tors.
Wednesday, Decem-ber 3rd will see a spon-sored “Exam Cram,” amultiple hour study ses-sion in the MulticulturalOffice in preparation forfall semester’s final ex-ams.
LSU meets every Mon-day evening at 8:00pm atthe Student Union, UT’sMain Campus, room2591.

ARIES: MARCH 21 - APRIL 20You’ve done everything you can to make things
right. Others are just as much a part of it. What theycan’t see is showing you how much you wish theycould open their eyes. Let it go for now. They’ll wakeup sooner or later.
TAURUS: APRIL 21 - MAY 20The lines of communication got screwed up a long
time ago. You’d be better off if you stopped pretend-ing that everyone’s on the same page. You’ll have alot of explaining to do before you can even dream ofgetting them to see it your way.
GEMINI: MAY 21 - JUNE 20Having gotten in over your head it scares you to
think about cutting your losses. Facing the fact thatthis is bigger than you are is your best hope. Bailingout makes more sense than risking what’s left on whatain’t gonna happen.
CANCER: JUNE 21 - JULY 20Your real life and your principles operate sepa-
rately. You want this to change. Bringing the innerand outer aspects of your reality into a unified wholewill require you to stop saying one thing and doinganother.
LEO: JULY 21 - AUGUST 20Your tendency to take over is upsetting a lot of
people. It’s OK to know what needs to be done, butalienating everyone won’t get it to happen. Takeother people’s issues into account and be smartenough to be strategic in your dealings with them.
VIRGO: AUGUST 21 - SEPTEMBER 20Too much going out and not enough coming in is
just the way things ebb and flow. Don’t worry aboutwhere things are going. You’re coming out of a timeof giving. With nothing left in the bank, it looks likeit’s your turn to receive.
LIBRA: SEPTEMBER 21 - OCTOBER 20You keep doing the same old thing because you
were bred for it. Stop trying to figure out what can’tbe understood with the mind. Your need to makeeverything OK is a survival mechanism. Don’t expectit to disappear overnight.
SCORPIO: OCTOBER 21 - NOVEMBER 20It’s time to look at this objectively. Whoever’s
come along to save the day walked into a huge mess.Don’t fault them for screwing up what was there tobegin with. Instead of blaming them, try thankingthem for helping you out.
SAGITTARIUS: NOVEMBER 21 - DECEMBER 20Overlooking what you wish to avoid won’t make it
go away. You may not see it but in time you’ll pay forthis. Instead of letting your blind spots dictate thefuture, put your attention on what’s right in front ofyou.
CAPRICORN: DECEMBER 21 - JANUARY 20Things are balanced momentarily. What you
thought wasn’t going to go your way turned out well.The rest of the war has yet to be won so don’t getoverconfident. Stay sharp. There are more tests upahead.
AQUARIUS: JANUARY 21 - FEBRUARY 20Nobody can figure out what makes you tick. This
mission you’re on defies logic. What others can’t seeis already clear to you, so it really doesn’t matter whatanyone thinks. You’re on the right path. Don’t waiver.
PISCES: FEBRUARY 21 - MARCH 20If you’re bored with this it’s because you put it in
a strait jacket. Too hung up on what people like youare supposed to do you’ve conformed to things thatwould bore anyone. Wake up. It’s time to revolution-ize your life.

Ohio schools object to FirstEnergy planAkron-based FirstEnergyCorp., which wants to elimi-nate the discounts.
A utility spokeswoman,Ellen Raines, said Thurs-day the discounted ratesdon’t cover the cost of pro-viding electricity.
“Traditionally, theschools have had veryheavily discounted electricrates,” she said. “We haveto bring our revenue morein line with our costs, justas everybody else does.”
The Cleveland district,which negotiated its owndeal, said the loss of its dis-
count would increase itselectric bill by $4 million.Cleveland schools CEO Eu-gene Sanders said thecompany’s plan was an in-justice because it would leadto more budget cuts.
Lawyers for the schooldistrict have asked thePUCO to freeze thedistrict’s present rate untilthe two sides negotiate anew deal or the commis-sion sets the amount.
The commission is ex-pected to approve a newthree-year rate structure forFirstEnergy by Dec. 31.
T h eCleve-l a n dschools,w h i c hs p e n dabout $5.6 million a yearfor electricity, get 40 per-cent off, according toRaines. She said the districtcan seek relief from the com-mission after it approves arate plan for the company’s2 million Ohio customers.

Puerto Rico SenatePresident KennethMcClintock, recently ap-pointed Secretary ofState by Governor-ElectLuis Fortuno, arrivedNov. 19, 2008, in Wash-ington D.C. to participatein a U.S. CongressionalPolicy Forum hosted byThe Center for PuertoRico Equality and Ad-vancement (CPREA),caribbeanbusinesspr.comhas learned. The forum’sdiscussion topic will be“Civil Rights and Equal-ity for Puerto Rico:Deconstructing the Insu-lar Cases.”
Carlos Chardonformer Secretary of Edu-cation of Puerto Ricostated in his speech: TheSerranno-Fortuno Bill‘would do away with sta-tus conundrum. It is theproduct of a RepublicanWhite House paper onstatus that went nowherein the House even thoughit had a unanimous sup-port in Committee.’
Richard Romero, withthe Ohio Commission onHispanic/Latino Affairs,stated: “While it is up tothe people of the islandof Puerto Rico to deter-mine their status, it is im-portant that mainlandPuerto Ricans work with
the island Puerto Ricans, inmaking sure that the ben-efits that the states receiveare also received in PuertoRico. It looks like the onlyway that will happen is ifthere is an organized,strong movement frommainland Puerto Ricansand Island Puerto Ricans towork together.”
According to RafaélRodríguez, the President/Founder of Center forPuerto Rico Equality & Ad-
vancement who spoke atthe CHIP Hispanic Lead-ership conference lastyear in Lorain, Ohio andhelped organize theWashington D.C. Forumwill help organize severalforums across the UnitedStates so that mainlandPuerto Ricans along withtheir Congressional Rep-resentatives can learnmore about the issues fac-ing Puerto Rico and solu-tions for Statehood.
Will Puerto Rico become the 51st state?

What moves you?There are unseen
forces at work in each ofour lives. The reason theyare unseen is becausethey exist in our minds—they cause us to do thingsboth positive and nega-tive.
Once we learn to mas-ter or control theseforces, they transformand can become ourgreatest tool in aiding usin our push through thedaily grind of life. Theforces of which I amspeaking are called mo-tivation and inspirationand whether you areaware of it or not, theyhave an effect on nearlyeverything that you do.
Feel like giving up?It is not uncommon to
feel overwhelmed andlike you do not have a lotof direction in life as ateenager. I have beenthere as have many oth-ers before you. It is adifficult time when youare faced with decisionsthat will eventually af-fect the rest of your life. Iknow this can be a scarythought, but I am keep-
ing it real with you. You cando things now that can ei-ther help or hurt your fu-ture, so be smart and let yourknowledge of what is rightand wrong guide you.
I was a late bloomer my-self to the idea that your ac-tions now can have conse-quences that determine thepath your life takes. Earlyon in high school, I thoughtit was game and I was play-ing it how I wanted with littleregard for could have hap-pened as a result of my ac-tions.
It took some close callsof almost getting caught up,and you take that how youwant to, that really openedmy eyes. Reality is life isnot a game, and if you playlike it is long enough, thereis a good chance you aregoing end taking a loss.
It is out there, look for it:Negativity breeds nega-
tivity is a concept that I havediscussed in the past. I knowthat many of you are in situ-ations where it may be hardto find things to be positiveabout; let me assure youthough the phrase ‘it’s allgood’ is a lie. I am not oneto sugarcoat things; on the
contrary I would rather beup front and honest even ifit is not something you wantto hear. It is not all goodout here in the hood, bar-rio, city, world, or pueblo.In fact there are a lot ofthings that can bring youdown and it is no secret thatthe worse things get, themore negativity you maysee.
To bring some light tothe darkness, it should alsobe said that in the darkestof times is when the goodthings shine brightest. It ison you to avoid falling intothe cycle of negativity byseeking and finding thatyou find as motivation andor inspiration. Where youfind it is not for me to tellyou, but rather for you todiscover.
You are a witness tohistory:
Two weeks ago, muchof the world found a newsource of inspiration. Forthe first time in the historyof the United States, we thepeople elected a minorityas our president—BarackHussein Obama. Despitewhat candidate you andyour family were support-

ing, it is hard to not see theimportance of this occa-sion.
I will admit that I havenot been very proud of whatthis country’s governmenthas done over the past eightyears. Some will say that Iam unpatriotic, but I amunfazed by such a claim. Iknow who I am and what Ibelieve in; I am the proudson a Vietnam veteran andgrandson of a World War IIveteran; I am the proud bigbrother to an Army veteran,and a currently enlistedNavy sailor.
The point is despite thefact that I think that this isthe best country in theworld, up until two weeksago I wasn’t too supportiveof some of the acts it hascommitted.
I feel that the most im-portant thing about the re-cent Presidential electionis the simple fact that a per-son, who is like you or Iwas able to reach the Presi-dency of this great Nationthrough hard work, sacri-fice, and motivation.
If you do not find inspi-ration in that then I thinkyou need to check yourpulse.
It can come inmany forms:
When I thinkback on my life Ioften ask myself‘What was I think-ing?’ I have donesome dumb thingsto be honest andwhile the motivefor those actions issomething that ishard for me to iden-tify, on the otherhand I alwaysknow what my mo-tivation was and isfor the good things that Ihave done and continue todo. I graduated from highschool and put myselfthrough college because Iwanted a better life for myfuture children and myself.My pops sacrificed somuch just to be a good fa-ther and provider. All ofmy success is attributed tothe motivation and inspi-ration I gained from thosesacrifices he made.
Now that I am a father, Iwant my daughter to knowthat sky truly is the limitand her education is therocket fuel. She is my mo-tivation to continue myown education towards
earning advanced de-grees. So my challengeis to look around; look atthe people both youngand old, look at the worldas a whole, look aroundyour school, look at yourneighborhood, just lookand you will find some-thing that motivates andinspires you to set andaccomplish your goals.¡Hasta la próxima vez!

El primer gol por medio de Alejandro Morenodel El Crew—G. Alegria/ J. Miranda /MLS foto.
COLUMBUS, Nov. 23,2008 (AP): No. 10 Ohio Stateis headed for a bowl game. Itjust may be a while beforethe Buckeyes find out whichone—they concluded theregular season withSaturday’s 42-7 meltdown ofMichigan.
Now comes the waiting.“We can’t control any-
thing now,” linebackerJames Laurinaitis said. “Nowwe just go home and enjoyThanksgiving and see whathappens.”
The Buckeyes (10-2)grabbed a piece of the BigTen title with Penn State, asPSU defeated MSU laterthat Nov. 22, with a scoreof 49 to 18.
That means that the PSUNittany Lions are headedfor the Rose Bowl, barringa number of improbableupsets which would some-how put them in the na-tional championship game.
Ohio State could receivean at-large berth into one ofthe other three—Sugar, Or-ange, Fiesta—BCS bowlgames. That will be deter-mined by how the remaininggames—particularly the Big12 and Southeastern Confer-ence championship games—play out.
Each “surprise” team thatmakes the 10-team poolbumps the Buckeyes furtherdown the pecking order.
Utah completed a perfectseason by beating BYU onSaturday and based on itsBCS ranking will take up oneof those six spots in the Sugar,
Orange, and Fiesta.Basically, Ohio State’s
shot at making a BCS game isin someone else’s hands.
If Oregon State, whichbeat Southern California ear-lier this season, wins its finalregular-season game at homeagainst Oregon next week,the Beavers would go to theRose Bowl. Should USC beatNotre Dame next weekend,that would send the Trojansinto the BCS.
Ohio State would then fallout of the BCS and play in theCapital One Bowl on Jan. 1,2009, against a SoutheasternConference team. Mostlikely, that team would beGeorgia, which would be thetop available choice out ofthe SEC since Alabama andFlorida, barring a bizarre setof circumstances, will bothbe in the BCS mix.
Ohio State is winless innine bowl game against SECteams, including lopsidedlosses to Florida and LSU inthe last two national champi-onship games.
Buckeyes coach JimTressel said Saturday he was“looking forward to a niceThanksgiving andwatch(ing) some ballgames.”
He would never admit it,nor would he allow his play-ers to admit it, but the Buck-eyes will be rooting ex-tremely hard against OregonState and for those OregonDucks in the Civil War show-down on Saturday. It is likelyOhio State’s last gasp at mak-ing a BCS game.
CARSON, California,el 23 de noviembre del2008 (AP): De la mano deldelantero argentinoGuillermo BarrosSchelotto, el Crew de Co-lumbus ganó el domingopor primera vez elcampeonato de la MLS alderrotar 3-1 a los Red Bullsde Nueva York.
Schelotto, el ex jugadorde Boca Juniors que eljueves fue consagradocomo el mejor jugador enel torneo profesional delfútbol estadounidense,asistió en los tres tantosdel equipo de Ohio.
A los 31 minutos,después de que los RedBulls se habían dado a latarea de atacar, el Colum-bus anotó el primer gol pormedio de AlejandroMoreno. El delanterovenezolano recibió elbalón del “Mellizo”,gambeteó al defensor Di-ego Jiménez y disparócruzado y rasante ante lainútil estirada del porteroDanny Cepero.
Al regreso delcamerino, el equiponeoyorquino dirigido porel colombiano Juan CarlosOsorio descontó a los 51minutos por cuenta deJohn Wolyniec,definiendo con un toquesuave.
Pero el equipo deNueva York no habíaterminado de festejar,cuando Columbus volvióa tomar la ventaja dosminutos después, a travésde un cabezazo que ChadMarshall conectó tras untiro de esquina ejecutadopor Schelotto.
Después de este gol, elpartido fue del Crew. Elequipo neoyorquino trató
de buscar el empate, pero elCrew no cedió terreno.
Schelotto casi anota enel minuto 77. El artilleroargentino pateó solo desdeafuera del área para vercomo el balón rebotó en eltravesaño superior.
Una genialidad deSchelotto a los 82 derivó enel definitivo tercer gol delCrew. El artillero argentinofiltró el balón al área chicacon un globito para queFrankie Hejduk entrarallegara solo y cabeceara porencima del portero WilliamHesmer.
Schelotto fuereemplazado a poco del fi-nal, recibiendo el saludo desus compañeros y laovación de los hinchas deColumbus que se reunieronen el Home Depot Center,en Carson, se congregaron27.000 personas.
El delantero colombianoJuan Pablo Angel fueneutralizado por el Colum-bus y no pudo llenar lasexpectativas que se teníande él.
El Crew es el segundoclub de la Conferencia delEste que gana uncampeonato, después delUnited de D.C., que tiene
cuatro copas MLS en suhaber. El equipo de Ohiohabía avanzado a la finalde conferencia en cuatroocasiones anteriores antesde llegar al partido por lacorona de la liga porprimera vez este año.
Columbus llegó a la fi-nal tras vencer al Fire deChicago en la etapa semi-final, mientras que elequipo neoyorquino hizolo propio con el Real SaltLake.

Interesting trivia: OhioState might not make one ofthe BCS bowls, but anotherOhio team could. The Uni-versity of Cincinnati beatPittsburgh on Saturday nightand now has the inside trackto winning the Big East cham-pionship, and along with itthe conference’s automaticBCS berth.
Meanwhile, Michigan’sWolverines don’t have toworry about any of this.They’ll be home for the holi-days for the first time in 34years after sufferingthrough a dismal 3-9 sea-son in Rich Rodríguez’s firstseason as coach.
“I think any time youdon’t have a successfulrecord and lose as manygames as we did you’re go-ing to be disappointed,”Rodríguez said. “If you’renot disappointed, youshouldn’t be in the profes-sion. I don’t want to panic.Again, it’s just the first year.”
Ohio State won for an un-precedented fifth year in arow in the 105th meetingbetween the old rivals. TheBuckeyes captured a pieceof a fourth consecutive BigTen title with their third winin a row after a painful homeloss to Penn State, 13 to 6.
“After the Penn Stategame, a couple of guys weredown but we gave it all wehad,” defensive linemanNader Abdallah said. “Wetold the young guys that wehad to keep striving hardand finish the season on ahigh note.”
Nov. 18, 2008 (AP):Toledo’s new arena foot-ball team now has a namethat’s nothing to croak at.
They’ll be called theToledo Bullfrogs, orRanas toro.
The name draws onToledo’s history whenmuch of the area was partof the Great Black Swampwith frogs aplenty. Clubofficials unveiled the teamlogos Tuesday.
The Bullfrogs will be-gin play in 2010 in thearenafootball2 league at anew arena being builtin downtown Toledo,which will also be the2009 venue for Toledo’shockey team, The Walleye[www.toledowalleye.com].

SAN JUAN, el 23 denoviembre del 2008 (AP):Por entender quevulneraría los derechos dequienes no compartan susprincipios religiosos, elMovimiento Socialista deTrabajadores (MST) deSan Juan solicitó eldomingo al gobernadorelecto Luis Fortuño querespete y mantenga laseparación constitucionalentre Iglesia y Estado.
Scott Barbés, portavozdel MST, aseguró que laincursión de líderesreligiosos en el gobiernode Fortuño sería unretroceso para las luchasde igualdad entre génerosy expondría aun más a serdiscriminados a quieneslleven un estilo de vidaque no sea cónsono conlos preceptos de algunasiglesias en el país.
“Los fundamentalistasven la perspectiva degénero como algonegativo cuando es uncambio y un paso haciauna equidad entregéneros, menosdiscriminación y, por lotanto, menos violencia”,indicó Barbés en uncomunicado.
El líder socialista
criticó, además, la firmade una Orden Ejecutivapor el gobernador AníbalAcevedo Vilá a sólosemanas de terminar sumandato para prohibir eldiscrimen por orientaciónsexual en el gobierno yque garantiza un seguromédico a las parejas nocasadas.
“Esta orden aprobadapor Aníbal Acevedo Viláha sido una hipocresíaque no demuestra uninterés genuino por laspersonas con diversasorientaciones sexuales nimucho menos por lasparejas de hecho”,sostuvo.
Según Barbés, alproponer la creación deuna Oficina de Enlace deIniciativas Comunitariasy de Fe, Fortuño viola laseparación entre Iglesia yEstado.
Esa oficina, que elgobernador electo crearámediante Orden Ejecutivay que estará adscrita a LaFortaleza, será dirigidapor el pastor AníbalHeredia, quienactualmente desempeñaesa labor desde la Oficinadel ComisionadoResidente.
Nov. 23, 2008 (AP): Presi-dent-elect Barack Obamahas chosen New Mexico Gov.Bill Richardson to be com-merce secretary, adding aprominent Latino and one-time Democratic rival to hisexpanding Cabinet.
Obama planned to an-nounce the nomination afterThanksgiving, according toa Democratic official famil-iar with the discussions. Theofficial was not authorizedto speak publicly about thenegotiations and did so oncondition of anonymity.
Richardson, 61, had a dis-tinguished and visible careerin Washington before re-turning to New Mexico,where he was elected gover-nor in 2002. Richardsonserved as U.N. ambassadorunder President Bill Clintonand later as energy secre-tary. He was in the Housefrom 1983 to 1997.
Clinton sent Richardsonon several high-level diplo-matic missions while he wasin Congress, including di-rect talks with Iraqi leaderSaddam Hussein.
Richardson ran for theDemocratic presidentialnomination but dropped outin January after a poor show-ing in early contests. He wenton to endorse Obama at theheight of the Illinoissenator’s primary contestwith Hillary Rodham
Clinton,angeringm a n yClinton’ssupport-ers whov i e w e dthe en-d o r s e -ment as a disloyal snub.
Obama consideredRichardson to be secretaryof state and brought him toChicago to discuss the job.The president-elect is ontrack to name HillaryRodham Clinton to the topdiplomatic post of Secretaryof State and was expected toannounce the pick also afterThanksgiving.
Obama’s choice for at-torney general is EricHolder, who held the No. 2slot in the Justice Depart-ment under Bill Clinton.Other selections appear toinclude: former Senate Ma-jority Leader Tom Daschleof South Dakota as secretaryof health and human ser-vices, Arizona Gov. JanetNapolitano as homeland se-curity secretary, and retiredGen. James Jones as nationalsecurity adviser.
On Nov. 24, Obamanamed New York FederalReserve Bank presidentTimothy Geithner as his trea-sury secretary and LawrenceSummers to lead the NationalEconomic Council.
Nov. 19, 2008 (AP):New York City congress-woman Nydia Velázquezhas been chosen to lead the21-member CongressionalHispanic Caucus.
