capital of Silicon Valley. All Rights Reserved: No part of this publication may betransmitted or reproduced in any form or by any means, this includes photo copying

BASIC CHOICES TO BE MADE

Abasic choice to be made by allcitizens is to ensure being reg-istered to vote by May 24,

2010. The election on Tuesday, June 8th iscoming up very soon, so be certain to takethe time to review the official voter infor-mation pamphlet mailed by the Registrarof Voters. It is best to review the officialinformation presented on the Registrar ofVoter's web site: www.sccvote.org.

Recently, the California Secretary ofState's Office mailed out the 'CaliforniaStatewide Direct Primary Election, Tues-day, June 8, 2010 Pamphlet,’ which is theofficial voter information guide. Make achoice to read it because it does contain of-ficial information rather than the politicalrhetoric presented by candidates’ directmail pieces.

Everybody faces many basic choiceswhich need to be made. So many choicesthat it is easy to become unable to do any-thing. Especially when one doesn’t dosome prior preparation. An essentialchoice is to spend the time and effort to be-come acquainted with all election issues.It is very easy to decide nothing can bedone about the global economy andweather, the national debt, the need forWall Street financial reform, and a regu-lation system for all insurance firms.These are all very complicated big issueswhose costs eventually trickle down to theconsumer who pays. And there are moreissues such as home mortgage foreclo-sures, lack of credit for small businesses,the need to upgrade our infrastructures(roads, bridges, etc.), our drinking watersupply systems, the transition to alterna-tive energy, and comprehensive immigra-tion reform, etc.

So let's begin at the local level. Justknow that basic choices pertaining to allthese issues are being made by yourelected representatives

In the City of San Jose, for the firsttime ever, the Hispanic community hasfour Hispanic candidates vying to repre-sent District 5. They are J. Manuel Her-rera, Magdalena Carrasco, XavierCampos, and Aaron Resendez. In District7 candidate Rudy Rodriguez is trying tounseat Madison Nguyen, the incumbent.

In District 9 Donald Rocha is a candidate.Sam Liccardo (District 3) and Pete Con-stant (District 1) deserve re-election.

In the County of Santa Clara, Board ofSupervisors, District 1, Dr. Peter Arellano(Gilroy) and Teresa Alvarado are the His-panic candidates. Arellano has served as amember of the Gilroy City Council and isan expert in health care issues which is abody of knowledge needed by the Boardof Supervisors. Teresa Alvarado is thedaughter of former Supervisor Blanca Al-varado; former Executive Director of theHispanic Foundation of Silicon Valley andmarried to Jesse Morales.

Another county level election choiceto be made is whether to elect a Hispanic,Richard Calderon as Sheriff. The currentDistrict Attorney, Dolores Carr, a Latina,is being challenged by Deputy District At-torney Jeff Rosen.

At the State of California level, for As-sembly District 23, Nora Campos is a can-didate, who, if elected, will replace thecurrent incumbent, The Honorable JoeCoto. She is the sister of Xavier Campos,a candidate for the seat of District 5, Cityof San Jose. An unexpected candidate forAssembly District 23 is Patricia MartinezRoach, a teacher and ESUHSD boardmember.

A former local superintendent,Franklin McKinley School District, LarryAceves, is a candidate for State Superin-tendent of Public Instruction. He deservesyour support.

Abel Maldonado (R) is a candidate forLt. Governor and whose interim appoint-ment by Governor Schwarzenegger washeld up for weeks by the State Assembly.Of great interest to Hispanics is the contestfor Attorney General which has AlbertoTorrico and Rocky Delgadillo as candi-dates.

It would be best for the Hispanic citi-zen to actively participate by registering tovote (deadline: May 24th). That ensuresthat your cultural values will be at the tablewhen public policy is being debated andestablished. It also establishes you as aconstituent whose opinions will be heardby politicians who want to stay in office.Those are the basic choices to be made.

Ihave a reasonable suspicion that per Ari-zona's new SB 1070, police will unreason-ably suspect many Latinos living in

Arizona of being undocumented. I believe my sus-picion is reasonable because legally, to reasonablysuspect someone of being undocumented requiresarticulable facts that cannot be based upon color ofskin, race, ethnicity, or language spoken.

This leaves us primarily with dress code andmannerisms as the only articulable ways to identifya person's legal status in this country. When Ari-zona's police are trained (at taxpayers' expense) todetermine that a hat, a belt, shoes, the use of handsin speech, etc. amount to undocumented status, weare clearly going down a path that casts a wide netof cultural customs that will include many U.S. cit-

izens.

When I worked at Catholic Charities in theearly 1990s, indiscriminate Border Patrol sweepswere a common occurrence at Story and KingRoads. After a young legal male Mexican wearinga distinctive hat from the State of Michoacan wasunlawfully arrested in a sweep, I recommendedthat he carry a tennis racket to break the stereotype.It worked-he never had a problem with his civil lib-erties again.

Millions of persons of Latino descent in Ari-zona had better start carrying tennis rackets.

Unreasonable Suspicion in Arizona

Por Rosario Vital El Observador

La firma de la SB1070 ha causado ungran revuelto en Arizona y en todos losEstados Unidos. En el Área de la Bahía

ciudades como San Francisco, San José se oponena una ley que discrimina y atenta contra la violaciónde los derechos humanos y civiles.

En San Francisco la Junta de Supervisores seha sumado a boicotear al estado de Arizona ne-gando toda contratación y negocios con sede eneste lugar. La ciudad de Oakland se sumó a esteboicot. En San José el Concejal Sam Licardo delDistrito 3 pide que no teman a la policía porqueellos no deportan a los indocumentados. Por suparte George Shirakawa, Supervisor del Condadode Santa Clara emitió una resolución en la cual con-denan la firma de la SB1070.

"La reciente aprobación de la SB 1070 estáfuera de los valores americanos. Como esta-dounidenses, creemos en la familia, la igualdad, elderecho de fidelidad a este gran país, y la prosperi-dad mediante el trabajo. Ahora es el momento parala administración Obama y al Congreso arregle elsistema roto de inmigración afirma Patricia Díaz,Directora Ejecutiva de SIREN.

¿Por qué es racista la SB1070?La ley establece que un agente de policía en

Arizona puede sin orden de aprehensión, arrestar auna persona, si el oficial cree que esa persona seencuentra en forma ilegal en Estados Unidos.

El nuevo estatuto también declara como delito

el contratar a un jornalero en la calle, al criminalizartanto a quien le ofrece trabajo, como al que lo so-licita.

La ley castiga además a cualquier persona quetransporte a un inmigrante indocumentado, auncuando este sea su familiar, de forma que hijos ciu-dadanos o residentes legales no podrán viajar en au-tomóvil junto con padres o hermanosindocumentados.

AmenazasEl congresista Duncan Hunter de San Diego

propuso deportar a los hijos de indocumentadosnacidos con nacionalidad estadounidense, tras con-siderar que la ley antiinmigrante de Arizona es "unfabuloso punto de partida".

De otro lado dicen que en Utah se quiere im-plementar algo similar que ha hecho Arizona.

¿Puedo esto pasar en California?Dicen que Arizona y California es como la

noche y el día en relación al trato de los inmigrantesindocumentados. Considerando que aproximada-mente 2 / 3 de los residentes de Arizona expresansu apoyo a la SB 1070, la ley estatal más anti-in-migrante en el país. Sin embargo una reciente en-cuesta en California muestra que 2 / 3 de loscalifornianos apoya la legalización para los inmi-grantes indocumentados. Por otra parte, los califor-nianos han pasado por una propuestainconstitucional contra los inmigrantes - la Proposi-ción 187 en 1994 - y aprendió que sólo el gobiernofederal puede promulgar y aplicar la ley federal. Lainmigración es una ley federal.

When community members inSanta Clara think of Jim McEn-tee, they remember a kind,

warm-hearted, and caring individual, who'swork has and will continue to improve the livesof those living in Santa Clara County.

On Friday, May 7, county residents and of-ficials will pay tribute to McEntee by unveilingthe James P. McEntee Plaza at the Santa ClaraCounty Government Center.

"Jim was a wonderful person who workedhard to bring people together to solve issuespeacefully," said McEntee's wife Ann. "Heloved everyone no matter who they were.Everyone was important to him."

McEntee served as Director of Human Re-lations for the County of Santa Clara for over27 years. He also started food banks andworked with various religious and ethic groupsthroughout the county.

"He stood for peacemaking, nonviolenceand social justice, respect for diversity and allcultures, and civil and human rights for all,"said Andrea Villasenor-Perry, Vice Chair of theJim McEntee Legacy Committee. "He was aman of deep religious faith, a servant leader,passionate in his love for his family and com-munity."

Prior to working with Santa Clara County,McEntee was a priest serving migrant farm-workers in Morgan Hill, working closely withCesar Chávez and the UFW.

"I believe his dedication to peace and social

justice came from his deep faith in God and hisdesire to live out gospel values. His life's workwas so much more than a profession/ career - itwas a ministry," Perry said. "He understood hisrelative position of privilege in society andknew that he was called to stand courageouslyas an ally, by the side of those with less powerand privilege. He understood the evils ofracism, classicism, homophobia, etc. and hepreached a gospel of inclusion, unity, and re-spect for all, even and most importantly in thecourse of diametrically opposed communityopinions and viewpoints."

The plaza dedicated to McEntee is a re-minder of all the hard work that he did for thecommunity and a reminder that the communityas a whole must continue to work hard to bringjustice to all.

"We desperately need reminders, especiallyhere in Silicon Valley, of what is most importantin life - not status, wealth, power, consuming -but, love for family, love and service to others,fighting for peace and justice for all. Especiallyat this time of economic and political recession,we need to celebrate what represents the best ofwhat we can be as human beings," Perry said.

The Jim McEntee Legacy Committee alsooffers scholarships to community college stu-dents who have been accepted to four-year col-leges.

"The students selected have all had to overcome difficult situations in order to make theirlives better," Ann McEntee said.

El Senado de los EE.UU. presentó unesquema de lo que pretende intro-ducir pronto como una reforma mi-

gratoria integral. La propuesta titulada"Propuesta conceptual sobre inmigración" es undocumento de 26 páginas al cual El Observadortuvo acceso. Este document está respaldado porlos senadores Charles Schumer (D-NY), RobertMenéndez (D-NJ) y Harry Reid (D-NV).

La propuesta incluye un programa de legal-ización para los 10,8 millones de personas in-documentadas que les permitiria trabajar yviajar legalmente durante 8 años, después de locual podrían pedir la residencia permanente.

Mientras tanto, los esposos e hijos que seencuentran en el exterior podrían inmigrarselegalmente a los EE.UU. Un inmigrante en losEE.UU. el día que se presenta la ley,-que to-davia no ha sido presentada,-sería eligible parasolicitar la legalización.

Otros puntos positivos incluídos en el es-quema incluyen los siguientes:

* Los esposos e hijos menores de inmi-grantes serian considerados como familiares in-mediatos y no tendrian que esperar parainmigrarse

* El número de inmigrantes que podría en-trar de cada pais se subiría del 7% al 10%

* Una persona del mismo género podría in-migrarse como esposo o esposa

* El Acto de los Sueños (DREAM Act)permitiría a los hijos indocumentados conseguirla mica a través de los estudios superiores

* Los trabajadores agrícolas podrian con-seguir la mica a través de AgJobs

* Se establecería una visa provisional paratrabajadores temporales en el pais que podríaconvertirse en la residencia permanente

* Algunas leyes estatales como las de Ari-zona serían ilegales

Por otro lado, este esquema propone lamano dura para inmigrantes que se quedan oque vienen al pais en condición indocumentadapara futuro. "Las propuestas de una tarjeta deseguro social biométrica, más tecnologia y másagentes en la frontera practicamente significaríael fin de la migración sin papeles a los EE.UU",según Richard Hobbs, abogado y Director Aso-ciado de SIREN.

"Con esta propuesta se criminaliza a per-sonas humildes que no representan ningunaamenza a la seguridad de los EE.UU." dijoHobbs quien al mismo tiempo elogia el Senadopor tomar esta acción inicial, pero se preocupapor el alto costo de la propuesta, la espera de 8años antes de poder pedir la residencia perma-nente para personas indocumentadas, y la ex-plotación y discriminación que el cierre de la

Over 200 people showed up in an ef-fort to prevent the WashingtonUnited Youth Center from perma-

nently closing its doors. The center was originally scheduled to close

on June 30, but with summer around the corner

the center was granted two more months, movingthe closing date to August 31.

"I can now say that thanks to the WashingtonUnited Youth Center, I have a scholarship to goto UCLA,” said Vanessa Romo. “A big part ofmy success was due to them."

Romo has been going to the center since age13 and is now 17 and is very grateful for the cen-

ter. She hopes that her sisters can be able to takeadvantage of the same opportunities.

People go to the center for different reasons,but the main reason why people are fighting forthe center is because it saves the lives of manyteenagers that otherwise would be running offand getting in trouble.

"Everybody is safe here, in the good timesand bad there's always somebody to talk with andtrust," said Aaron Carrera. Carrera has beengoing to the center for seven years and sees allthe benefits the different programs provide. Heknows the importance of having the centeraround for youth in his shoes.

It takes $400,000 a year to run the center.The center has self-defense classes, it offers Eng-lish classes and it also has a computer center. It'snot just a place to play handball or pool, it's con-sidered a home to many people.

"I have received many trainings from whichI have benefited so much," said Ana Maria

Ramirez. Ramirez considers the center a home and re-

members when it started out as a single officeand how the area in general had the worst repu-tation in the neighborhood. She hopes that every-one comes together to fight to keep the centeropen.

In an effort to keep the center open, en-velopes were given to people who wanted tomake any donation. They want to show the citythat they don't want free services, they are willingto help in any way they can.

"I want to encourage everyone to come andparticipate," said Councilmember Sam Liccardo."We'd love to see you at city hall to demonstrateyour support for this community and its center."

There is a march being organized for May18. People will be meeting at 5:30pm at theWashington United Youth Center and will marchto City Hall and share personal stories. Everyoneis invited to take part of the protest.

Riding Through San Jose


By Cinthia Rodriguez

It's been a week since Gov. Jan Brewerof Arizona signed the bill on illegal im-migration into law. And over the past

few days people have been protesting all overthe nation and in San Jose as well.

The Silicon Valley Alliance for Immigra-tion Reform and MAIZ organized a small vigilon Monday, April 26, over 150 people protestedon the corner of Story and King Road in eastside San Jose. The people are outraged aboutwhat's going on in Arizona and voiced solidar-ity with the people of Arizona.

"Immigrants are a vibrant force in our cul-ture, economy and society. They come here towork, to be reunited with family or to avoidpersecution. The recent passage of SB 1070 isout of tune with our American values. As Amer-icans, we believe in family, equality, the rightof allegiance to this great country, and prosper-ity through hard work. NOW is the time for theObama administration and Congress to step upto the plate and fix our broken immigration sys-tem in a thoughtful, well-reasoned and humanemanner. By stalling immigration reform we areundermining the fabric by which the UnitedStates was formed," states Patricia Diaz, Exec-utive Director of SIREN.

The law requires officials and agencies ofthe state and political subdivisions to fully com-ply with and assist in the enforcement of federalimmigration laws and gives county attorneyssubpoena power in certain investigations of em-ployers. It establishes crimes involving tres-passing by illegal aliens, stopping to hire orsoliciting work under specified circumstances,and transporting, harboring or concealing un-lawful aliens, and their respective penalties, asstated in the fact sheet provided by the Arizona

State Legislature. Opponents of the law have called it an open

invitation for harassment and discriminationagainst Latinos regardless of their citizenshipstatus. Not carrying the proper identification orrequired papers is now a crime and anyone sus-pected can be stopped.

The law will take effect in August, but be-fore that, demonstrators remind people to attendthe march on May 1. Everyone will meet atStory and King Roads in San Jose, and themarch will begin at 4pm.

Al celebrar el Día del Niño,recordemos que "No todo lo quebrilla es oro." El mejor regalo para

nuestros niños no se vende en la juguetería, sinoque, como asevera el refrán popular: "El tiempoes oro." ¡Ningún regalo es más valioso que eltiempo que dedicamos a nuestros niños!

Nuestros niños y hogares son bombardea-dos por ofertas de una multitud de productosque prometen traerle sonrisas y buenos ratos aquienes los compren: juguetes de todo tipo,videojuegos y otros aparatos electrónicos, ropade última moda, artículos llamativos, atractivos,divertidos, y algunos supuestamente educa-tivos...

Mas, como dice la canción de Franco deVita: "No basta con comprarle curiosos obje-tos... No basta, cuando lo que necesita esafecto... Aprender a dar valor a las cosas,porque tú no le ser*s eterno...

Los padres no les seremos eternos a nue-stros niños. Lo que sí es eterno son los recuer-dos de regalos significativos. ¿Qué hacememorable un regalo? ¿Qué regalos de suniñez recuerda usted? ¿Acaso recuerdan susniños las cosa que recibieron el año pasado parael Día del Niño, su cumpleaños o Navidad?¿Qué regalos valen la pena y la plata?

Queremos que a nuestros hijos no les faltenada, mas aparte de complacer algún antojo,enseñémosles sobre regalos que valen muchomás,regalando de nuestro tiempo, ejemplo, tal-ento, alimento, ¡y hasta sangre y órganos!

Recomendaciones a la hora regalar:1. Recordemos que los regalos verdadera-

mente valiosos no se compran ni se venden 2. Preparemos "certificados de tiempo" a

ser compartido con la familia en actividades opaseos

3. Regalémosle a los niños oportunidadesde participar en obras comunitarias o caritati-vas, regalando alimento y compartiendo suspertenencias con los necesitados

4. Regalemos regalos únicos y personales,hechos a mano para, por, o con los niños

5. Iniciemos con otras familias intercam-bios de regalos ya usados, tales como ropa, li-bros, películas, y juguetes

6. Cultivemos los intereses y talentos de losniños regalándoles clases de música, deportes,artes marciales...

7. Enseñémosle a nuestros niños a usar larazón, no sólo la ilusión, al pedir regalos

8. No nos olvidemos de regalar libros paracualquier fecha especial

9. Tengamos en cuenta un presupuesto re-alista a la hora de hacer regalos

10. Consideremos hacer regalos de vida aniños necesitados, donando sangre e inscribién-donos como posibles donantes de órganos

11. Pensémoslo bien antes de regalar mas-cotas, ya que los animales no son juguetes

12. Al regalar juguetes, consultemosfuentes fiables, tales como www.medioscon-sentidocomun.org y www.healthytoys.org

En toda ocasión en que deseemos agasajara nuestros niños, recordemos que siemprepodemos hacer regalos verdaderamentevaliosos, inspiradores, e inolvidables: nuestrotiempo, talentos, ¡y ejemplo!

Regalemos Regalos Reales a Nuestros Niños

On Wednesday, April 21, AngelaDavis spoke to a group of studentsand teachers at the Morris Dailey

Auditorium at San Jose State University whereshe discussed current events and her thoughtson them.

The theme of her discussion was the cre-ation of new terrain that has brought more free-dom and everything that follows.

"45 years ago people were convinced theywere going to witness a revolution in the U.S.,"said Angela Davis. "And that revolution didn'thappen. We're still fighting capitalism andracism."

She remembers having the urgency to or-ganize to overturn capitalism. She revealed howhard it was to organize nationwide, how expen-sive a call would be and now everything is eas-ier. She urged the students to use thoseinstruments to their advantage and continue or-ganizing.

"The issues remain, the challenges remain,and we have to continue to build the kinds ofmovements that will allow us to make someprogress, at least in the direction of educationalreform," said Davis.

The latest example of organized youth wasthe result of the latest presidential campaign.Davis believes that young adults made the dif-ference in Obama's victory. She noticed thatmany Latinos and Blacks weren't too optimistic

and that all changed once young adults em-braced Obama's message of hope.

The night also gave all the listeners a betterunderstanding of who Angela Davis is. Daviswas hired at UCLA to teach Marxism and didn'tthink that joining the communist party wouldcost her job. She was wrong. She currently livesin Oakland and continues to be a feminist andis an advocate for change.

"The most important civil rights movementtoday, is the movement to abolish all of the lawsthat proclaim people who simply want to havea better life, and they want to have a better lifelargely because their home countries have beendestroyed by transnational capitalist corpora-tions," said Davis. "So they're fleeing the ef-fects of global capitalism."

The new terrain has people struggling fortheir identity because of gender roles. Peopleare struggling to live in a place where they arenot welcomed, but are willing to risk it all. Thenew terrain is filled with homophobia and theenvironment also needs attention.

There is more freedom now, but manyproblems as well. Davis asked her listeners tocontinue to organize, to use those social net-works her generation didn't have and to organ-ize even more effectively.

Davis also believes that young people aremuch more willing to understand the connec-tions between ideas and that's key to a success-ful revolution.

Desde que llegamos a este país, millones de inmigrantes tenemos muchas

historias que contar. Hay pena, hay dolor y por supuesto mucho humor.

Y precisamente de eso se trata la obra titulada “Gringolandia no es como

la pintan”, ponerle humor a la vida. Esta obra es producida y actuada por Angel Ayllón

y el talentoso actor colombiano Francisco Bolívar.

¿Recuerda su primera vez en América? ¿Recuerda cuando lo desaprobaron en su

examen de manejo? ¿recuerda su primera entrevista en ingles? ¿recuerda su primera

perdida en las calles de Estados Unidos?. En esta país nadie camina en los barrios

residenciales, todos andan en su automóvil otros toman el autobús. La gente está ocu-

pada y uno se siente que a veces está de más y cree que no lo va a hacer en este país.

“Un día entré a un restaurante y la anfitriona al ingreso me preguntó:“¿Smoking

or No smoking”? y yo le dije, no, no traigo traje”, dice Carlos Mesa.

“Me encontré a buenas personas en el camino. Un día estaba andando por Palo

Alto y no sabía cómo pagar el pasaje, al chofer le extendí mis manos con una serie

de monedas de diferentes tamaños. El buen hombre se tomó la molestia de contarme

y separarlas para explicarme el valor de cada una de ellas”, dice María Rosas quien

ahora es cajera de una centro comercial.

“Recuerdo aún cuando la policía me detuvo porque no había encendido las luces

del vehículo, no traía licencia pero mi novia si. El policía en la ciudad de Mountain

View le dijo a mi novia, no deje manejar a su novio porque no sabe cómo encender

las luces de su carro”, dijo Victor Reyes.

Cada vez que Carlos, María y Victor recuerdan estos momentos se ríen y les trae

mucha nostalgia porque Estados Unidos no es como las películas de Hollywood que

vimos en nuestras tierras. Angel Ayllón rescata estas historias en su producción teatral. Tanto Angel como

Francisco ambos inmigrantes cuenta con mucho humor las experiencias que todos

los inmigrantes pasamos y que en este momento es bueno recordarlas con humor

porque eso ya forma parte del pasado.

La obra se estrena el 14, 21 y 28 de mayo a las 7:30pm en el Auditorio de FCC

localizado en la 478 Piercy R. de la ciudad de San José. Las personas que quieran

Healthincentives to lure kids to meals that are high in fat,sugar and calories.

Restaurants encourage children to choose spe-cific menu items by linking them with free toysand other incentive items, and research shows thatparents frequently make purchases based on re-quests made by children. In 2006, the FederalTrade Commission estimated that restaurants sold1.2 billion meals accompanied by toysto children under 12. While there arecurrently no nutritional standards formeals marketed to children, a2008 study by the Center forScience in the Public Interestfound that 10 out of 12meals exceeding the rec-ommended caloric limitsfor children came with toys.

"This ordinance levelsthe playing field," said Yea-ger. "It helps parents makethe choices they want fortheir children without toysand other freebies luringthem toward food that fails tomeet basic nutritional standards."

One in four youth in Santa Clara county areeither overweight or obese, and one in three low-income children in Santa Clara County betweenages two and five are overweight or obese. Na-tionally, childhood obesity has tripled since the1970s. Obesity is a risk factor for cardiovasculardisease, diabetes and cancer. Thirty percent ofboys and 40% of girls born in 2000 will be diag-

nosed with Type 2 diabetes, which can result in theloss of, on average, 10-15 years of life.

The ordinance imposes very specific, com-mon-sense restrictions. Restaurants cannot usetoys as rewards for buying foods that have exces-sive calories (more than 120 for a beverage, 200for a single food item or 485 for a meal), excessivesodium (480 mg for a single food item or 600 mg

for a meal), excessive fat (more than 35%of total calories from fat), or excessive

sugar (more than 10% of caloriesfrom added sweeteners.) The cri-teria are based on nationally rec-

ognized standards forchildren's health created by theDepartment of Health andHuman Services (DHHS) andthe Department of Agriculture(USDA) and recommenda-tions for children's food pub-lished by the Institute ofMedicine (IOM).

The ordinance affects allrestaurants in the unincorpo-

rated areas of Santa Clara County.Before going into effect, the ordinance

requires a second reading that will happen at theMay 11 Board of Supervisor's meeting. Restau-rants will then be granted a 90-day grace period.During that time, restaurants will be given the op-portunity offer alternative measures to meet thegoals of the ordinance. If no suitable alternative iscreated and adopted by the Board of Supervisors,the ordinance will go into effect.

Durante esta semana celebramos el"5 de mayo", fecha en la que seconmemora el triunfo de la Batalla

de Puebla de 1862, ocasión en la que el ejércitomexicano venció a las fuerzas invasoras euro-peas. En muchas ciudades de los EstadosUnidos se festeja este gran acontecimientohistórico. Además de la celebración también seelogia la contribución de los inmigrantes de ori-gen mexicano a esta nación.

Su gente cálida, hermosos paisajes, deslum-brantes ruinas arqueológicas y playas de en-sueño. México se ha destacado en el mundo porhaber sido el terruño de grandes artistas entodos los géneros como: Frida Kalho, MaríaFélix, Octavio Paz, Pedro Infante,

Diego Rivera, Agustín Lara, Dolores delRío y Jorge Negrete, por mencionar solamentea unas de sus más célebres figuras.

Los extranjeros que visitamos México, re-tornamos enamorados del país azteca, naciónque cuenta con una basta cantidad de sitiosturísticos, santuarios religiosos, modernasurbes, ciudades coloniales, montañas de impre-sionante belleza, y lo más memorable: la hos-pitalidad y manera de ser del mexicano, hace

que uno se sienta bienvenido en un país que lotiene todo.

Como todo gran país, México se ha desta-cado por ser el trampolín que ha llevado a lafama a muchos artistas no solamente deAmérica latina, sino también de España, Fran-cia, Italia y muchas otras naciones. El paíscuenta con la televisora más importante delmundo de habla hispana, asimismo es uno delos tres mayores productores de plata junto aRusia y Canadá; uno de sus mayores productosde exportación es el petróleo, y una de sus prin-cipales divisas se obtiene del turismo ya quemiles de extranjeros visitan el país cada año.

La catedral de Nuestra Señora deGuadalupe es uno de los tres santuarios mari-anos más visitados en el mundo entero. La ex-quisita gastronomía mexicana es reconocidacon gusto en todos los rincones del planeta y esuna de las más completas. Tanto México comosus conciudadanos siempre le han dado la sazóna los grandes eventos internacionales. Unmundial de fútbol, unas olimpiadas, un festivalde películas, un festival musical o un concursode belleza no estaría completo sin la partici-pación de México. Por eso declaramos con en-tusiasmo: " México lindo y querido".

The City WindowsGallery in San Jose iscurrently showcasing

the artwork of several ceramicartists in San Jose. One of thoseartists is Tessie Barrera-Scharaga.Scharaga took some time to talk toEl Observador about her artworkthis past week.

EO: Where were you bornand raised?

Scharaga: I was born in NewYork City, of Salvadorian andColombian parents.

EO: How long have youbeen doing ceramic art?

Scharaga: I've been makingart for over twenty years.

EO: Is it the only kind ofart? If not what else?

Scharaga: I'm a conceptual in-stallation/assemblage artist thatcreates site-specific and time-based environments, using a vari-ety of materials and technology.My work incorporates clay, foundand rescued objects, recorded

sound, photography, video, andlight effects.

EO: What is ceramic art?ScharagaCeramic art is art-

work made with clay.

EO: How did you feel whenyou where asked to be a part ofthe gallery on Fourth Street?

Scharaga: Being asked to par-ticipate in Earth • Bound, a showat City Windows Gallery

featuring artists that workwith clay was fantastic, particu-larly because among the artistsparticipating I can name friends,colleagues, and professors I stud-ied with as an undergrad at SanJose State University.

EO: What inspires you to doart?

Scharaga: The themes I use inmy work are based on my ques-tions, insights, doubts, hopes, frus-trations, worries, and conclusionsabout the world around me. I havealways been fascinated by the con-nections between social and cul-tural phenomena and personalpsychological experience. Humanstories inspire me, fill me with ad-

miration, and also terrify me. Mywork is at times painful, at timesjoyful, and always viscerally at-tached to the realities of contem-porary life, mine, and the peoplewho share this planet with me.

When creating a new pieceI'm hoping to be able to establisha connection with the viewerthrough our common humanity.Events and situations of our dailylife can sometimes trigger power-ful emotions difficult to articulate.In my work I aim to express the in-effable, and to find visual means tocommunicate concepts, feelings,and experiences that are verballyelusive. I consider myself a wit-ness and recorder of my time andexperiences, both at the personaland societal levels.

EO: Where else can peoplefind your art work?

Scharaga: My website: tbsart-studio.com and my Facebookpage: Tessie Barrera-Scharaga ArtStudio.

EO: How long does a ce-ramic project usually take andhow do you plan it?

Scharaga: An installation can

take from a few weeks to a fewmonths to complete. It depends onthe complexity of the piece. It maystart with an image in my head thatI need to see realized, or a piece ofnews that caught my attention, orsome situation I've experienced orwitnessed, or a passage from abook or article I've read. Mostpieces require a combination of

media and technology that may in-clude clay, wood, fabric, photog-raphy, video, and sound. I createmy own ceramic objects, videofootage, and soundtracks.

EO: What's next for you?More art exhibits?

Scharaga: As long as I cancontinue making art, I'm satisfied,

and hopefully, there will always bemore opportunities to exhibit mywork.

Earth•Bound will be on dis-play at the City Windows Gallerynear City Hall in San Jose. Formore information visit www.tb-sartstudio.com/

Arranca Copa EO

Asunción.- (Notimex).- El volanteinternacional paraguayo del CruzAzul de México, Cristian Riveros,

a punto de ser transferido al Sunderland deInglaterra, en declaraciones a medios localesafirmó de manera categórica que "SalvadorCabañas es insustituible" en la selección Albir-roja.

Riveros habló de la ausencia del "Mariscal"en el cuadro paraguayo que participará en elMundial de Sudáfrica 2010 y de algunos de-lanteros que serían alternativa para llenar la va-cancia que dejará el goleador de Las Águilasdel América de México.

"Salvador no tiene sustitutos, su puesto será

prácticamente imposible de llenar pese a las op-ciones que tiene en sus manos el técnico "Tata"Martino, él era diferente y un jugador notable,así que muy difícilmente cualquier otro podráhacer las cosas que hacía él", subrayó el ju-gador.

Insistió el mediocampista, considerado porMartino como uno de los mejores futbolistas deParaguay de los últimos tiempos -según su cri-terio- que el 10 del América y de la Albirroja,quien se recupera de un impacto de bala en lacabeza sufrido el pasado 25 de enero en la cap-ital mexicana, fue uno de los pilares de la se-lección paraguaya en las eliminatorias y sinduda su máximo artillero.

Ausencia de Cabañas pesará en la selección
