Washington, (Notimex).- El presi-dente Barack Obama se pronun-ció en contra de la propuesta de

quienes en México apoyan un arreglo con elcrimen organizado, como una salida a la violen-cia provocada por el narcotráfico.

“Si se compra la paz llegando a un arreglocon gente sin moral y sin respeto a la vida hu-mana, eso no es bueno para una sociedad”, dijoel mandatario.

Obama consideró que la lucha contra estosgrupos, bajo el gobierno del presidente FelipeCalderón, tiene profundas implicaciones so-ciales para México.

“El presidente Calderón entiende y está enlo correcto, cuando dice que si los criminalespueden controlar enormes segmentos de laeconomía y por ello se presentan como partede la fibra social del país, eso tiene un efecto cor-rosivo y corruptor en cualquier economía decualquier sociedad”, dijo Obama.

El mandatario confió en que este razonamiento prevalezca entre la población, dadassus profundas implicaciones.

“No creo que los mexicanos quieran vivir enuna sociedad donde los narcotraficantes seanconsiderados uno de los sujetos más poderososen la sociedad”, precisó.

Obama dijo que ha conversado con el presidente Calderón, quien sufre de ver que estetipo de violencia tiene lugar, y sé que quiere re-ducirla, pero ha tomado una decisión que com-parto y respeto”.

El mandatario dijo que está evaluando unasolicitud del Congreso para que la Casa Blancaturne documentos, correos electrónicos y notasde tres altos funcionarios, que tuvieronconocimiento de la operación Rápido y Furioso,que permitió infiltrar armas a México.

“Vamos a ver la petición, mi consejero legalen la Casa Blanca está a cargo de atender estaspeticiones de información del Congreso, y nome involucro en los detalles de eso”, dijo al sercuestionado.

La petición fue hecha por el presidente del

Comité de Supervisión de la Cámara de Repre-sentantes, el republicano Darrel Issa, y por elsenador republicano Charles Grassley, comoparte de una ampliación de la pesquisa legisla-tiva sobre la operación.

Los tres funcionarios implicados son el ex di-rector para América del Norte del Consejo Na-cional de Seguridad, Kevin O’Reilly; su directorpara el hemisferio occidental, Dan Restrepo, y eldirector de terrorismo, Greg Gatjanis.

Obama reiteró su desconocimiento sobre elcontroversial programa, mediante el cual la Ofic-ina de Alcohol, Tabaco y Armas de Fuego (ATF)permitió el ingreso ilegal de más de dos milarmas a México.

Explicó que los tres funcionarios en cuestiónrecibieron información en términos generales,sin detalles sobre los alcances que ahora hantrascendido.

“Este no es un tema en el que la Casa Blancatuviera conocimiento de lo que ahora se sabe,fue un problema real de que un compradorpudo llevar esas armas a México”, precisó.

Dijo que su gobierno ha respondido ya envarios frentes, primero con una investigaciónconducida por el Departamento de Justicia, ycon cambios recientes en la dirección de la ATFy su oficina en Phoenix.

El procurador general Eric Holder “ha sidoclaro de que esa decisión no reflejó la política dela administración, por eso es que se han vistocambios”, explicó.

A preguntas sobre su resistencia a impulsarque se restablezca la prohibición de la venta dearmas de asalto, Obama dijo entender que elcontrol de armas “es sensible en México, y lo quequeremos es cooperar” con ese gobierno.

Dijo que por ello, su gobierno está tomandopasos para atacar la venta ilegal de armas, cer-rando vacíos legales, y adoptando verificacionesmás rigurosas de los antecedentes de los com-pradoras y para prevenir la compra por interme-diarios.

“Vamos a hacer todo lo que podamos ahí, yvamos a continuar explorando una ampliagama de pasos para apoyar lo que el gobiernode México hace”, indicó.Δ

No habrá pacto con Narcos

El calentamiento global está cadadía más latente en nuestras vidas yla necesidad de desarrollar méto-

dos sustentables para nuestra existencia estan indispensable como el pan de cada día.

Pero ¿¿qué es el calentamiento global?.La energía del sol golpea la tierra y parte deesta energía rebota de vuelta hacia el espa-cio. Lo demás es absorbido por la tierra, losocéanos y la atmósfera.

La energía llega a la superficie calentán-dola y luego es despedida en parte al espa-cio pero además parte es absorbida porciertos gases en la atmósfera templando lasuperficie aún más. Estos son los Greenhousegases” y están presentes en la naturaleza,pero nuestros desperdicios y mal uso de laenergía aumenta el nivel de ellos.

Dióxido de carbono es un claro ejemplo.Esto hace que las altas temperaturas derri-tan los glaciares y el nivel del mar aumente,

lo que conlleva a desastres naturales fu-nestos como huracanes y otras tormentasque cada día se vuelven más poderosas.

En el Museo Tecnológico de San Joseestá vigente una nueva exposición: “GreenGarage” o “Garaje ecológico” (en español) endonde podemos observar diferentes vehícu-los eléctricos que nos permiten hoy en díaalcanzar 100 millas con una sola carga.

Para los más aventureros también exis-ten motocicletas. Esta es una excelente in-versión porque no solo ponemos nuestrogranito de arena en reducir emisiones dedióxido de carbono sino que además notenemos que lidiar con el precio de lagasolina que esta por las nubes.

Debemos ver recursos como electrici-dad de bajo consumo, energía renovable,energía solar y considerarlas no una nuevamoda o estilo de vida, sino un requisito paranuestra supervivencia y la de nuestras fu-turas gene raciones. Está en cada uno denosotros la subsistencia de los seres vivos deeste plane ta.Δ

OPINION

By Hector [email protected]

Last Thursday, September 8, 2011,President Obama presented his“Jobs for America” proposal to a

joint session of Congress. The purpose ofthe American Jobs Act is simple: put morepeople back to work and put more moneyin the pockets of working Americans. Andit would do so without adding a dime tothe deficit. The American Jobs Act has fivecomponents:

1. Tax Cuts to Help America’s SmallBusinesses Hire and Grow.

2. Putting Workers Back on the JobWhile Rebuilding and Modernizing Amer-ica (rebuild schools, roads, bridges, airports,harbors, etc.).

3. Define and Fund Pathways Back toWork for Americans Looking for Jobs.

4. Tax Relief for Every American Work-ers and their Families.

5. Fully Paid for as Part of the President’sLong-Term Deficit Reduction Plan.

On Tuesday, September 13, 2011, theSilicon Valley Leadership Group conductedseveral forums dealing with “game chang-ers’ which would solve many of the chal-lenges of todays stalled economy.

These ‘game changers’ were ideas, in-novations, and inspirations which justmight cause the economy to change justas the personal computer caused profoundchanges in America’s society and economy.

Several panelists discussed the “GreenEconomy” being established in San Jose.Mayor Reed aptly presented the hope thatmany jobs would be created, especially forthe local worker.

Shai Agassi, CEO, Better Place, spokeabout the improvements to the environ-ment using alternative energy such as bat-tery powered cars which would helpeliminate dependency on foreign crude oil.

A second panel addressed the chang-ing economic engine of Silicon Valley. Themost important idea was that the commu-nity needs to invest in the training and ed-ucation of youth or else there would be noskilled labor and its leadership.

The State economy and Public servicewas the focus of the third panel. HereJames Gutierrez, CEO, Progresso Fi-nanciero, presented the fact that Latinosmall businesses have a much harder timeobtaining sufficient capital to fund smallbusinesses located in disadvantaged com-munities.

He proposed that U.S. Congress passenabling legislation which would permithis firm to sell bonds to raise the invest-ment funds to be provided to small busi-nesses located in the barrios.

His firm had provided $200 million inventure capital funding to a variety of com-munities. The sale of tax credits and busi-ness ‘losses’ would be used to raise needed

funds.Staying competitive as a state and na-

tion was discussed by panelists who in-cluded State Senator Joe Simitian.

The final panel discussed California’sWorkforce from the perspective of MichaelRossi, Advisor to Governor Brown for Jobsand Business development and Rob Chan-dra, Bessemer Ventures Partners.

SVLG president & CEO Carl Guadinoended this Game Changer 2012 with hisclosing comments.

An important idea endorsed by manywas the need to reduce corporate taxes onoffshore profits to encourage corporationsto bring trillions of dollars back into theAmerican economy.

In fact one panelist recommended thatSVLG become the Silicon Valley Manufac-turing Group once again to emphasize theneed to have manufacturing jobs re-estab-lished in America.

A disappointment was that no panelistspoke to the current practice of corporateexecutives to emphasize profits while notproviding gainful employment to theAmerican domestic work force.

Eventually, manufacturing jobs will becreated in industries which assemble an allelectric car or in the creation of alternativesto crude oil as a source of energy, whicheliminates the need to import foreigncrude oil at a cost of $750 billion, some ofwhich is used to fund terrorist efforts.

In addition the impact of the militaryindustrial complex was not ‘touched’ be-cause the shut down of even one weaponssystems development and its manufacturewould impact employment in all 50 states.

It seems that no one has his/her armsaround this challenge to ‘create jobs’ in amanner that would reestablish the Ameri-can consumer economy.

So President Obama’s American JobAct will meet much difficulty inCongress.This nation now has the largestnumber of residents who live in povertyever experienced since 1953.

It will take a revolution of some sort tobegin the creation of markets with de-mand for products needing manufacturingwhich creates jobs for those unemployedmillions.

The unemployed will continue to sufferbecause the private sector will not createjobs soon enough, if ever.

This recession is unlike any ever expe-rienced by America. Republicans will con-tinue to derail anything that may helpPresident Obama to be re-elected. So our‘majority rules’ governance system is beingderailed by an effective small RepublicanTea group.Δ

Jobs: How To Create ThemPor Maribel Hastings

La administración anunció nuevasguías discrecionales para priorizar lasdeportaciones y queda por ver si se

sostienen en la práctica, sobre todo entreagentes migratorios que no siempre siguen lasdirectrices de Washington.

Todavía insisto en que la administraciónpuede hacer más sin que medie el Congresopara regular programas como ComunidadesSeguras y 287(g) que han sido el motor del alzaen las deportaciones. La insistencia en na-cionalizar Comunidades Seguras es inqui-etante e incluso indignante.

Dicho esto, las alternativas que de mo-mento nos ofrece el Partido Republicano danganas de llorar.

El debate de los aspirantes republicanos deturno a la nominación presidencial republicanano arrojó nada nuevo: ocho aspirantes, seishombres anglosajones, un afroamericano yuna mujer. El único latino que figuró en el de-bate fue el presentador de Telemundo, JoséDíaz-Balart, quien hizo una breve apariciónpara hacer la pregunta de inmigración que losdos periodistas anglosajones no formularon.

Sus respuestas migratorias: vagas y algu-nas hasta ofensivas. Repetir la perorata de la se-guridad fronteriza antes de hablar de reformamigratoria, a pesar de que el propio gobiernoasegura que la frontera es ahora más seguraque antes. Evadir qué hacer con los 11 millonesde indocumentados que ya viven en EstadosUnidos. Sólo dos de ellos dijeron que hay quebuscar una solución “humana” aunque noqueda claro qué significa eso. Si no ayudarona su propio presidente republicano, George W.Bush, cuando quiso impulsar una reforma mi-gratoria, qué van a ayudar a un presidentedemócrata.

Imaginé el rostro de satisfacción del terror”de los indocumentados, Lamar Smith, el con-gresista republicano de Texas que preside elComité Judicial de la Cámara Baja, si el 7 denoviembre de 2012 amanece con presidenterepublicano en Casa Blanca, aunque sea unode esos que promueven soluciones “humanas”.

Imaginé también si ese presidente repub-licano cumple algunas de las promesas es-bozadas por los precandidatos: revocar lareforma de salud, o el Obama Care, como elloslo llaman; impulsar políticas fiscales que sólobeneficien a los más acaudalados.

Me parece que el presidente Obama hasido demasiado pasivo al lidiar con el PartidoRepublicano. A veces actuar con demasiadabuena fe se confunde con una debilidad fácilde explotar en las urnas.

A veces las cachetadas con guante blancono son buena estrategia política con quienessólo quieren verte fracasar.

No estoy justificando a Obama, pero dig-amos que le estoy dando el beneficio de laduda como quizá lo hagan otros votantes lati-nos en 2012.

Las encuestas, empero, evidencian el des-gaste latino. Según la firma encuestadoraGallup, el apoyo hispano a Obama cayó a 48%.En 2008 Obama logró 67% del voto latino.

Sería bueno que el Mandatario se sinceraracon nuestra comunidad, que dejara de justi-ficar todos estos programas que han lastimadoy separado a muchas de nuestras familias, quealgunos que le rodean y asesoran dejaran delado la arrogancia cuando son cuestionados yentendieran que el voto latino que lo ayudó en2008 puede salvarlo en 2012 de convertirse enpresidente de un solo periodo.Δ

Por Rosario VitalEl Observador

Funcionarios federales de inmigración estánrecorriendo el país para difundir la informa-ción sobre los recursos disponibles para las

víctimas extranjeras de trata de personas, delitos violentos y de violencia doméstica.

San José es una de las 30 ciudades de todo el país

que está siendo visitada por estos funcionarios, queestán tratando de llegar a estas víctimas.

La trata de personas es ahora el mundo de la em-presa criminal más grande en segundo lugar detrás eltráfico de drogas.

Los funcionarios de inmigración definen a la tratade personas como una forma de esclavitud modernaen la que las víctimas son transportadas y obligadas a

prostituirse, a trabajos forzados o están obligados ala servidumbre doméstica.

A diferencia de contrabando, que es “una transac-ción entre partes independientes con el tráfico, seconvierte en un activo económico en curso”, dijo la Ofi-cial de USCIS de Asuntos Públicos Sharon Rummery.

Autoridades de la Oficina de Ciudadanía e Inmi-gración de EE.UU. en San José, dijeron que el abusotiene que terminar.

Lamentablemente existen en nuestro país situa-ciones de trata y de esclavitud. Esto puede pasar ennuestro propio barrio y tal vez no lo hemos notado.

“Desde el año 2003 se han reportado víctimas detráfico de personas. Desde entonces la cifra ha ido enaumento. Obligan a personas a prostituirse, em-pleadas domésticas, trabajadores del campo, traba-jadores en la construcción”, dijo Lynette Parker,Abogada de Inmigración del Centro Legal Comuni-tario, Katharine & George Alexander.

“Muchas de las víctimas son de Perú, México, ElSalvador, Brasil, Africa, Ucrania. Es probable que viva-mos cerca de víctimas y no lo sabemos. Por eso pedimos que si notan algo sospechoso es importantedenunciarlo, todo es confidencial” dijo Parker a EO.

A menudo, los traficantes se aprovechan de mu-jeres y niños pobres, atrayéndolos a una vida de es-clavitud con la promesa de un trabajo remunerado enlos EE.UU. explicó la abogada.

Una vez atrapados, muchas víctimas no sabencómo escapar, dijo Lynn Boudreau, asistente del di-rector del centro de servicio en Vermont de USCIS.

La agencia federal se ha asociado con grupos co-munitarios, funcionarios policiales y de inmigraciónen el Área de la Bahía y en todo el país para llegar a lospotenciales de tráfico y víctimas de la violencia y ed-ucarlos acerca de sus opciones.

Las víctimas de estos delitos pueden solicitar unaVisa T o U, creado en virtud de las Víctimas de la Tratay la Ley de Protección contra la Violencia de 2000, losfuncionarios de USCIS, dijo.

Boudreau, dijo que las víctimas inmigrantesdeben saber que ellos pueden ser elegibles para so-licitar dos tipos de visas que les permitan permanecery trabajar legalmente en los Estados Unidos durantetres años.

La visa “T” es para víctimas de la trata y la visa “U”

es para las víctimas de delitos graves.“Nuestro propósito es dar a conocer todos los

componentes para que podamos hacer un mejor tra-bajo al llegar a estas personas que son víctimas vul-nerables”, agregó la representante de USCIS.

Boudreau dijo que debido a su estado, muchosinmigrantes temen denunciar los abusos, por lo quesu oficina está tratando de llegar a los organismospoliciales para que puedan dejar que las víctimassepan que hay ayuda disponible.

Visa “T” y “U”Ambas visas proporcionar a las víctimas protec-

ción de la inmigración, lo que les permite permaneceren los EE.UU. durante tres años.

Durante ese tiempo, los titulares de la visa “T” y“U” pueden solicitar la residencia permanente, dijo.

Requisitos visa “T”- Solicitante debe demostrar que ha ayudado a la

policía a arrestar y a enjuiciar a los traficantes.

- Demostrar que con el regreso a su país correnpeligro.

Visas U Están disponibles para las víctimas que han

sufrido abuso físico o mental que se produjo comoconsecuencia de haber sido víctima de actividadescriminales. Los solicitantes deben demostrar queestán dispuestos a ayudar en la investigación y el en-juiciamiento de la actividad criminal, explicaron losfuncionarios federales.

Hay visasBoudreau dijo que el gobierno emitió 9,857 visas

“U” el último año fiscal, y sólo se emitieron 800 de5,000 visas disponibles “T” el año pasado.

Sin embargo, dijeron que esas cifras han aumen-tado desde el año anterior, debido en gran parte a lacolaboración permanente del USCIS con la policía ygrupos comunitarios por atender a las víctimas en suscomunidades.

Carol Keller, Directora de las Oficinas de inmi-gración en San José exhortó a que la comunidad de-nuncie casos de tráfico de personas.

“Para reportar una víctima de trata potenciales ensu comunidad, USCIS pide al público a llamar a unaorganización no gubernamental, la línea de ayudaconfidencial en 1-888-373-7888.”, puntualizó Keller.w

Pelearemos hasta que se instale unaescuela “charter”. Lucharemos por laeducación de nuestros hijos hasta las

últimas consecuencias”, dijo Karen Martinez.Martinez fue una de los padres de familia

que asistió a la junta de la Mesa Directiva delDistrito Escolar de Alum Rock el pasado 12 deseptiembre.

En esta reunión, los miembros de la mesano aprobaron la presencia de la nueva escuela“charter “Alpha”” dentro de su distrito escolar.

Martinez es madre de siete hijos y segúnella debido al problema y a la poca atenciónque hay en la escuelas públicas, uno de sushijos ha tenido que enfrentar situaciones terribles como ir al correccional de menores.

“No contamos con la educación apropiada,no tenemos los elementos básicos y nues troshijos corren el riesgo de caer en la deserciónescolar”, dijo Martinez a EO al concluir la re-unión.

La comunidad en los últimos meses ha es-tado luchando por contar con una de estas es-cuelas debido al sorprendente éxito y avanceque han tenido sus hijos en escuelas como“Rocketship”, un centro educativo dedicado alos primeros años educativos.

“No queremos mala educación somos tes-tigos de alta tasas de deserción escolar, la infil-tración de pandillas, la delincuencia”, dijoAntonia García, madre de familia de AlumRock.

“Somos más los padres que disfrutamos deestas escuelas “chárter”. Es algo que nues troshijos merecen. El distrito escolar solo se pre-

ocupa porque recibirán menos fondos del es-tado, pero pienso que las escuelas públicas noson buenas ni suficientes”, dijo Rolando Mozo.

Por cada estudiante que sale de AlumRock, el distrito pierde alrededor de 6,330dólares en fondos estatales.

Muchos padres de familia expresaron suconformidad sobre el programa que “Rocket-ship” ha tenido en sus hijos.

“Mis hijos han logrado un gran avanceacadémico. Se ve que nuestros pequeños lle-van muy bien sus clases. “Rocketship” es hastael 5to grado y después de esto no hay algunaescuela intermedia que les permita continuara los pequeños bajo el mismo sistema”, dijoMozo.

Por su parte María Terea Bárcena, expresósu disconformidad por la decisión de la mesadirectiva. “Se está cometiendo un gran error,estamos pidiendo por la educación de nue-stros hijos y debemos continuar con nuestratarea de seguir haciendo la lucha”, explicóBárcena.

“Queremos proporcionar las mejoresoportunidades educativas para nuestros niñosde este Distrito. Necesitamos un tipo de edu-cación que permita prosperar a los nuestros”,dijo Martinez.

La mesa directiva dijo que las escuela“Alpha” no está bien estructurada y la curricula no cuenta con los elementos básicos paraasegurar un buen rendimiento de los estudi-antes.

Karen Martínez afirma que “esto es falso. Laescuela chárter “Alpha” se ha basado en la ex-periencia que ha tenido en Oakland. “Es claroque la mesa no quiere ni siquiera ni informarsede lo exitosa de esta escuela””, concluyó.Δ

“¡Lucharemos por la educaciónde nuestros hijos!”

(NewsUSA) - What’s the best way to stop a bully? Don’t let him (or her) become one. Multiplestudies have shown that teaching children positive social skills and taking proactive steps to pre-vent and discourage delinquent behavior can go a long way toward preventing bullying and pro-viding a more effective learning environment.

Unfortunately, childhood bullying has become a 24/7 problem, and the anonymity of the In-ternet makes it more difficult to identify and punish bullies. But programs in which schools andthe community work together to prevent bullying and reduce disruptive behavior can make a dif-

ference.The benefits of bullying prevention programs include freeing teachers to teach, instead of

spending their time disciplining students. These programs also cut down on chaos in the classroomand foster a positive learning environment.

Michelle Molina, president and CEO of PeaceBuilders says that “Children need to be given theskills so they can solve these problems and adults need to be the guides on the sides.”According to the nonprofit organization Child Trends, PeaceBuilders has been found to work in increas-

ing conflict resolution skills and reducing aggression and bullying.PeaceBuilders is a program designed to foster a positive environment not only in schools, but at home

and in the community. The program is already in place in thousands of schools across the United States,where it is successfully used to prevent and decrease bullying and other disruptive behavior.

PeaceBuilders is designed to combat bullying early through a combination of school-based pro-grams, parent training and community outreach. Parents are a critical part of the program, ensur-

ing that practices are duplicated at home. The PeaceBuilders program can be tailored to agesand developmental levels from preschool through high school.

The program works by first identifying risk factors for bullying, including vi-olent or aggressive behavior, drug use and tobacco use. PeaceBuilders pro-

vides tools to foster civil behavior and to discourage disruptivebehavior. Then a roadmap is created that includes regularly

praising children and teens for good behavior at schooland at home, while discouraging bad behavior. In-

volving parents in the behavior improvement be-fore adolescence helps communities create a

way of life that encourages people to be nicerto each other.

With the recent adoption of new informed con-sent requirements for California chiropractors,the California Board of Chiropractic Examiners

has joined the ranks of only a few chiropractic regulatoryagencies in the nation to require its licensees to inform pa-tients of potential risks of their treatment. 

The new law, which goes into effect on October 7, 2011,requires chiropractors to obtain patient consent prior to pro-viding any treatment that could pose a risk of harm to the pa-tient.  Specifically, this regulation will:

- Require all licensees to inform each patient, verbally andin writing, of the material risks of proposed care.

- Define material” as a procedure inherently involvingknown risk of serious bodily harm.  Require the licensee to ob-tain the patient’s written informed consent prior to initiatingclinical care.

- Provide that the signed written consent shall becomepart of the patient’s record.

- Specify that a violation of the above requirements con-stitutes unprofessional conduct and may subject the licenseeto disciplinary action.

“The BCE has been working diligently to improve thestandards of care in the chiropractic profession in California,”said Fred N. Lerner, D.C., Chair of the BCE. The BCE’s primarymission is consumer protection, and these new regulationsare part of the Board’s ongoing effort to ensure patient safety.Informed consent is considered a standard of care in the chi-ropractic profession and this regulation reinforces that stan-dard.

The informed consent process ensures that the patient’sright to self-determination regarding health care is para-mount.

The BCE continues to work with stakeholders on otherregulations to improve patient safety and consumer protec-tion.

tended Prospect HighSchool, graduating early andenrolling in DeAnza College.Back in the 1970’s when as-sembly work was still beingdone locally instead of inChina, Tino was on the Vindi-cator assembly line solderingboards and doing light tech-nician work testingtransponder boards. Tinoput school on hold to gainexperience in the electronicsfield which he loved somuch.

In 1987 /1988, Tinojoined forces with a friendand started Kalpana wherehe built and debugged net-working boards and systems.Kalpana is credited in the in-dustry for pioneering Ether-net Switching Technology. InDecember 1994, Cisco Sys-tems acquired Tino’s com-pany. His career with Ciscohas taken him all over theworld developing new gen-eration products and intro-ducing them tomanufacturing for Ciscobusiness.

Throughout the years,

Tino has been exposed tocommunity service workthrough family values passedon by his parents, Val andMary Helen DeLeon. Tinowas introduced to Kiwanis ,joined the Hispanic basedPueblo de San Jose Kiwanisclub and has been a part ofthe club for over 20 years.

(ARA) - American entre-preneurism has been aroundas long as the country, butthat spirit is getting youngerevery day. Fifteen percent ofself-employed Americansare younger than 35, accord-ing to the U.S. Small BusinessAdministration, and that per-centage is growing.

Recent reports place theunemployment rate at 54percent for Americansyounger than 25. Driven inpart by the decline in tradi-tional job opportunities andin part by the innovativespirit that has long definedAmerican small business,members of the millennialgeneration are going into

business for themselves. Andthey’re using the same tech-nologies that they’ve grownup with in their personallives to facilitate their suc-cess as small-business oper-ators.

Because the youngergeneration grew up usingtechnology, they are usingtheir knowledge to helpthem follow their entrepre-neurial spirit - relying ontechnology to start theirown business. Because ofthis use of technology,young entrepreneurs shouldlook to these areas wheretechnology can help launchtheir new business:

1. Social media Born in the digital age,

millennials have grown upconnected to the Internet,Facebook and Twitter, andtexting is an everyday part oftheir lives. To avoid socialoverload and streamlinecommunication, use toolsthat help bring networks to-gether in one place. For ex-ample, users can connectFacebook to Hotmail andchat right from inside theirinbox, as well as keepLinkedIn and Facebook con-tact lists organized withauto-contact linking acrossHotmail and Windows LiveMessenger.

2. Network and buildrelationships

Millennial business own-ers have grown up in a mo-bile, digital world. So havetheir customers, and thosecustomers will be connect-ing with each other in cyber-space. Youthfulsmall-business owners areusing social networking anddigital media to communi-cate with customers aboutproducts and services. Theyalso rely on a variety of mo-bile devices for their net-working needs and chooseoperating systems that allowthem to communicateacross a broad range of de-vices.

By Cinthia Rodriguez – El Observador

With a lineup led by El Tri, Rev-olucion Rokkera featured thelegends of Rock en Español

during an all day music festival. Hundreds at-tended the Salinas Sports Complex whereMolotov, Fobia, and Dopamina performed.

Multi Grammy winning artist, Cesar“Vampiro” Lopez, is one of the best-knownguitarists in Spanish language rock. He is thelead guitarist for the Mexican bandJaguares. Vampiro is collaborating with Vic-tor Monroy, lead singer and composer fromPastilla, to form the project they call Dopam-ina. The audience responded well to theband’s material. Their set was short andsweet, performing only four songs for therowdy crowd. They are currently working onrecording their debut album that will featurenine original tracks and will be available forfree.

The second band to take the stage wasFobia. A band from Mexico City, who beganin the late 80’s when there wasn’t much pro-motion of the music they were creating.

Fobia was lucky enough to work with mem-bers of very well known bands that helpedthem record their demos. They returned thefavor to their industry by helping otherbands. They performed their classic songs tothe multitude of people that knew the lyrics.

Another popular Mexican band thattook part in the festival was Molotov, consid-ered one of the most original acts in thescene. They feature a mixture of Spanish andEnglish lyrics. They just wrapped up theirtour in Europe, where they completed theirrecent album and dvd “Desde Rusia conAmor,” (From Russia with Love).

The favorite band of the night was El Tri.The group originally known as Three Soulsin my Mind are considered influential andamong the founders of Mexican rock. Somefans were fortunate enough to meet andgreet front man, Alex Lora.

Revolucion Rokkera wasn’t just anotherconcert.  It was designed to give back to thecommunity.  Proceeds generated by theevent went directly to Youth Orchestra Sali-nas.

Giving back through music

Mexican band Fobia performed to hundreds of fans during Revolucion Rokkera at theSports Complex in Salinas, CA.
