Latino candidates scored major
victories in last week’s municipal
elections in Cleveland, Lorain, and
Toledo, and in Franklin County, often with gritos filling the airwaves
across northern and central Ohio.
Joe Santiago defeated Nelson
Cintron, Jr. for a seat on Cleveland’s
Council in a replay of the 2001 race.
Last time around, Santiago lost in
Robert Torres, Toledo Public Schools
the primary. This time he won Ward
14 by 106 votes with a margin of 51.88 percent to 48.12
percent, in unofficial tabulations.
What was his secret? “I never stopped running since
2001,” says the 39-year-old Santiago.
During the time between campaigns, Santiago earned a
degree in business management from the University of
Phoenix, graduating this June with a 3.4 grade average.
Like Escobar’s Ward Three in Lorain, Ward 14 in
Cleveland is plagued with crime, drugs, and abandoned
housing, much of it the result of predatory lenders. But
Santiago hopes to make a change by bringing in development and maintaining an open door policy.

Voters soundly reject election changes in Ohio
By JOHN McCARTHY
Associated Press Writer
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP):
Promoters of four ballot issues that would have changed
the way Ohioans vote took a
solid hit on Election Day, but
expect the Legislature to
make changes on their own
anyway.
And one of the most vocal
critics of the issues is ready to
accommodate them.
The issues would have
opened absentee balloting to
all voters, lowered the cap on
individual campaign contributions and put boards, instead of
elected officials, in charge of
drawing legislative and congressional districts and overseeing the state’s elections.
In the campaign against
Issues 2-5, state Rep. Kevin
DeWine acknowledged that
the way the state draws district lines needs work. A board
of elected state officials
draws legislative districts and
the Legislature draws congressional districts. All the
mapmakers are Republicans.
The ballot issue would have
given that power to a judgeled board.
In 1981, Democrats controlled the pencil and Republicans asked voters to change
the rules. That issue lost badly
as well. DeWine, a suburban
Dayton Republican, said he’s
going to study how the system can be changed “if there’s
something reasonable.’’
“The problems are ones
that were talked about 20
years ago in that the party in
power uses the power of the
pen for their particular ad-
vantage without looking at
the big picture,’’ DeWine
said. ``The temptation is
there and that’s what needs
to be resolved.’’
Former Rep. Ed Jerse, a
Euclid Democrat and the director of the issues’ campaign, said minority Democrats in the House should hold
DeWine to his promise.
“The current system is not
a good one for redistricting.
We should challenge the
Republicans to present their
solution to this,’’ Jerse said.
Voters soundly rejected
four issues Tuesday that
would have overhauled the
way Ohio runs its elections,
ending a high-pitched campaign that had hoped to capitalize on a Republican investment scandal and complaints about last year’s presidential election.
With 93 percent of precincts reporting, the absentee ballot question was behind 64 percent to 36 percent; campaign contributions, 67 percent to 33 percent; redistricting, 70 percent
to 30 percent; and election
oversight, 71 percent to 29
percent.
The complexity of the ballot language likely was a
major reason for the issues’
demise, said Gene Beaupre,
a political scientist at Xavier
University in Cincinnati.
“That has to be a big contributor to it. To the opponents’ credit, they ran a wellfunded, effective campaign,’’ Beaupre said.
The coalition backing the
changes saw an opportunity
amid an investment scandal
that has cost the state $300
million and led to the conviction of Republican Gov. Bob
Taft on ethics charges. The
campaign came within a year
of the 2004 election in Ohio,
which gave President Bush
his re-election victory.
Proponents said changes
were necessary to restore integrity to state elections and
take big money out of politics. Opponents said the issues were nothing but a
power grab by Democrats
who have been on the political sidelines for 11 years.
The contributions issue proposed lowering the limit from
$10,000 to $2,000 for statewide candidates and $1,000
for legislative candidates.
Republicans tried to defuse the absentee balloting
provision by passing a similar idea in the Legislature.
Taft signed the bill, but it
won’t take effect until after
Tuesday’s election.
The last campaign during
an election with no statewide
races to capture the same attention was in 1983, when
voters turned down a tax repeal and raised the legal
drinking age for beer from
18 to 21. The last time as
many issues were on the statewide ballot was 1992, when
voters overwhelmingly approved term limits.

Fed panel debates law mandating non-English
voting material
By SUZANNE GAMBOA
WASHINGTON
(AP): A federal law requiring some local governments to provide voting materials in other
languages is not constitutional because there
was no evidence of discrimination
against
Latinos when it was written, an opponent of the
law told a House panel
last Tuesday.
Linda Chávez, president of One Nation Indivisible, said the Voting
Rights Act was expanded in 1975 to provide assistance to voters
not proficient in English
for political reasons and
should not be renewed.
Latinos have been the
primary beneficiaries of
the bilingual ballots section, but when the proviso was written, New
Mexico and Arizona had
elected Latino governors and five members
of Congress were Latino.
Lawmakers and civil
rights groups opposed
adding the section, she
said.
“They opposed it because discrimination
against Hispanics ....
while there was scattered
and sporadic discrimination—it was nothing
comparable to the discrimination that blacks
faced in the Deep
South,” Chávez told the
Judiciary Committee’s
panel on the Constitution.
The bilingual ballots
provision expires in
2007 unless U.S. Congress renews it. Other
witnesses said it must
remain in the act because

ues and lack of bilingual
ballots keeps some voters
away from the polls.
Rebecca Vigil-Giron,
New Mexico’s Secretary
of State, testified that her
office provides television
and radio spots in English,
Spanish, and the Navajo
language on issues ranging from voter registration
rules and deadlines to
early, absentee and provisional voting.
“It would be a serious
mistake to underestimate
the tenacious grip of racism that is always working
against minorities in this
country,” Vigil-Giron
said.
Magaret
Fung,
a
spokeswoman for the
Asian American Legal Defense Fund, said Englishlimited voters who need
assistance are not only
immigrants, but also naturalized citizens who have
a right to vote.
She cited examples of
voter discrimination, saying a poll inspector in New
York told Asian voters,
“you Oriental people are
taking too long,” and a poll
worker in Virginia told a
Laotian American voter:
“You’re name is the longest I’ve ever seen.” In New
Jersey, poll workers told
voters they should learn
English to vote.
Latinos are the largest
minority in the country and
growth of the Latino population in Texas has made it
a majority-minority state,
according to U.S. Census
population estimates released over the summer.
In Texas, 104 counties
or jurisdictions are required to provide Spanishlanguage assistance, ac-
cording to the National
Association for Latino
Elected and Appointed
Officials Educational
Fund.
The
association,
which seeks to improve
Latino participation in
government, says when
the Voting Rights Act
was extended to protect
“language minorities.”
Latinos, Asians and
American Indians were
subjected to literacy
tests, “white only” primaries, Latino voting dilution through annexations, gerrymandering
and at-large elections
and economic reprisals,
such as poll taxes, the
association said.
Chávez said she
doesn’t oppose providing voting materials in
other languages, but that
states should make the
decision and pay for the
cost, along with private
groups such as the Asian
American Legal Defense
and Education Fund.
But Vigil-Giron said
although several states
have been urged by the
Justice Department to
follow the provision, 30
have asked for waivers
until 2007, when the provision is set to expire.
Chávez warned lawmakers to expect a legal
challenge if the provision is renewed.

Fox launches holiday “Paisano” program
for returning migrants
MEXICO CITY (AP):
President Vicente Fox
inaugurated this year’s
“Paisano” program on
Wednesday to protect migrants and other Mexicans returning to their
homeland from the United
States for their holidays.
Fox promised to set up
a hotline so that migrants
who face abuse or discrimination from Mexican officials can call directly to the President’s
office to make their complaints heard.
Because migrants often return for the holidays
bearing gifts, cash and
new cars, they were often
the target of extortion or
robbery, sometimes involving police or other
officials. The Paisano
program, started in 1989,
is intended to prevent
such abuse and ensure a
warm welcome for re-
turning countrymen.
“Woe to any public servant at any level who we
catch treating returning
paisanos badly,” Fox told a
meeting of representatives
of Mexicans abroad at the
México City international
airport, where many arriving migrants arrive.
Fox said he would personally oversee the program.
“The president will be
traveling constantly from
now through the end of the
(holiday) season, without
announcing the date or
place of visits, to ensure
that all public servants are
fulfilling their duties,” Fox
said.
The program will also
use undercover inspectors
to ensure nobody is shaken
down for bribes at airports
or border gates.
During the program,
which runs through Janu-
President Vicente Fox
ary, about 1,300 volunteers will staff 113 posts
around the country to help
guide and orient returning migrants.
Detroit’s Mexican consulate will announce the
Paisano program on Friday, according to Isabel
Flores of the consulate.
Antonio Meza-Estrada is
its cónsul, assisted by
Cónsul Oscar de la Torre.

(AP): The U.S. government is withholding
documents that could
show whether immigration laws have been used
to bar foreign scholars
from entering the country for ideological reasons, the American Civil
Liberties Union (ACLU)
said.
Among the documents the ACLU has
sought are records showing the use of a section of
the Patriot Act that allows the government to
block people who have
used their positions “to
endorse or espouse terrorist activity or to persuade others to support
terrorist activity.”
ACLU attorney Melissa Goodman said
Wednesday that the statute was constitutionally
problematic, “especially
if it’s being used in a way
to prevent Americans
from hearing ideas ... that
they have a right to hear
under the First Amendment.”
The ACLU, the American Association of University Professors and the PEN
American Center planned
to file a lawsuit in federal
court in Manhattan on
Thursday seeking release
of the documents.
The U.S. State Department had no comment on
the lawsuit, spokesman
Tom Casey said.
The ACLU said it believed the statute was used
to revoke the visa of leading Muslim scholar Tariq
Ramadan in August 2004
days before he was to begin teaching at the University of Notre Dame, in
Notre Dame, Indiana. The
Department of Homeland
Security cited “public
safety or national security
interests” but released no
specifics.
Ramadan said at the
time that there was nothing
in his past to justify the ban
and demanded that U.S. au-
thorities give details of
their investigation to clear
him of the “untrue and humiliating” claims that he
was barred because of ties
to terrorism.
The ACLU also cited the
visa denial of Dora Maria
Tellez, a former Nicaraguan Sandinista leader
who was scheduled to
teach a course at Harvard
Divinity School, in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
The group filed a Freedom of Information Act
request in March seeking
materials involving the
use of Section 411 of the
Patriot Act and at least one
other statute. It is seeking
statistics, the names and
occupations of people
who have been excluded
and documents that show
how the law has been interpreted, Goodman said.
The ACLU had received one document and
notice that access to another had been denied, she
said.
Después de varias
semanas sin cobrar,
muchos trabajadores se
fueron frustrados.
“Les dije que cuando yo
cobrara, les daría su dinero.
Y
me
preguntaron
cuándo’’, dijo la mujer.
“Estoy segura de que no va
a tardar mucho’’.
Un vocero del Cuerpo
del Ejército dijo que no
tenía conocimiento de
problemas con los pagos.
Una portavoz de KBR no
dio detalles sobre la

FBI investigating handling of Detroit absentee
investigation is based on Federal Voting Rights
ballots
allegations from a dis- statutes and the 14th and
By TOM KRISHER
DETROIT (AP): The
Justice Department is investigating allegations
that votes were cast in the
names of dead people and
that the city clerk improperly helped incapacitated
people to vote by absentee ballot.
At the request of the
FBI, Chief Wayne County
Circuit Court Judge Mary
Beth Kelly late Tuesday
ordered the secretary of
state to preserve all absentee ballots, the applications to get them and
the envelopes in which
they were sent.
The order, which came
shortly before the polls
closed Tuesday, said the
ballots must be held by
the state after being
counted.
“Now we can be satisfied that the ballots will
be there and that the
documents will be there,”
Assistant U.S. Attorney
Lynn Helland, who
sought the order, said after the hearing.
The judge also ordered
preservation of records of
City
Clerk
Jackie
Currie’s Project Vote program, in which ambassadors go into the community and help senior citizens and disabled people
prepare absentee ballots.
Records to be preserved
include Project Vote telephone logs and weekly
work force reports of the
project’s volunteers.
Steven W. Reifman, attorney for Currie, called
the order an unnecessary
intrusion into the clerk’s
power and said the FBI
gruntled candidate who has
sued Currie.
“I think it is much ado
about nothing,” Reifman
said.
Meanwhile, Currie lost
her re-election Tuesday to
challenger Janice Winfrey.
With 99 percent of the precincts reporting, Winfrey
had 53 percent to 47 percent for Currie.
The state and Wayne
County reviewed about
45,000 absentee ballot applications and determined
that 1,500 to 2,000 apparently were handled by ambassadors, the state and
county said.
Last week, Kelly ruled
that Currie had been breaking state law in how she
handles absentee ballots.
The judge ordered the secretary of state and the
Wayne County clerk to
oversee the absentee ballots.
On Tuesday, a threejudge Michigan Court of
Appeals panel denied
Reifman’s emergency request to return oversight of
absentee ballots back to
Currie.
Currie’s appeal accused
Kelly of violating due process by “running the proceedings in an àmbush’
mode, leading to the ‘kangaroo court’ style proceedings and the ‘witch hunt’
that has ensued.’’
The motion, filed on behalf of Currie and the City
of Detroit Election Commission, said Kelly lacked
jurisdiction in the matter. It
also said Kelly improperly
reinstated portions of an
order deemed “null and
void” by the appeals court
and ignored violations of
Julie Picknell
REALTOR
15th Amendments to the
U.S. Constitution.
On Friday, Kelly held
an emergency hearing
and said there was credible testimony that
Currie’s workers violated
a previous court order to
stop the ambassador program.
Earlier, Kelly found
Currie guilty of criminal
contempt of court for defying her order and mailing 132,000 absentee ballot applications to people
who didn’t request them.
Kelly made her rulings
in a lawsuit filed by
Maureen Taylor, a City
Council candidate who
lost in the August primary
but sued alleging that
fraud kept her from winning or getting a recount.
Stephen F. Wasinger,
attorney for Taylor, said
he could not believe that
Currie’s office opposed
preservation of the
records.
“I can’t understand
why a public official
would not want documents maintained,” he
said.
In late October, The
Detroit News reported
that Currie’s handling of
absentee ballots was
questionable. The newspaper found that people
cast ballots even though
they listed addresses at
abandoned
nursing
homes or in one case, a
vacant lot. The paper also
said a master voter list
included people who died
or left Detroit.

18-year-old write-in candidate elected Hillsdale
mayor
Hillsdale, MI (AP): An 18year-old high school student
said he was in shock
Wednesday after being
elected mayor by mounting
a write-in campaign to oust
the 51-year-old incumbent.
Michael Sessions had 732
votes to 668 for Mayor Doug
Ingles, according to unofficial figures posted on the
city’s Web site.
“It’s just a state of trying
to believe it,” Sessions told
the Hillsdale Daily News.
“Especially that 732 people
took the time to write my
name in. My heart’s racing.”
A cheer went up in the
Sessions home when the results were announced over
the radio. The Hillsdale High
School student lives with his
parents and 13-year-old sister Sarah.
“I support him all the
way,” said Scott Sessions,
Michael’s father. “He has
worked for it. He had the desire to do it.”
Scott and Lorri Sessions
at first had doubts about the
wisdom of their son’s candidacy, the teen said.
“They thought I was crazy
and (were) pretty skeptical
of my campaign, but now
they have smiles from cheekto-cheek,” Sessions told The
Blade of Toledo, Ohio.
Hillsdale—population
8,200—is home to the 160year-old, 1,200-student
Hillsdale College.
Pending clearance by the
County Board of Canvassers
on Thursday, Sessions will
be the youngest mayor in city
history.
Because the city’s electronic voting system counted
all write-in ballots for Sessions _ the only official
write-in candidate _ they will
have to be manually reviewed and ballots that have
other names or are illegible
will be thrown out.
Sessions was 17 and not
yet qualified to get on the
ballot in the spring.
But one day after his
birthday, on Sept. 22, he registered to vote. The next day,
he signed up as a write-in
candidate.
He used $700 from a summer job to fund his race.
“Right off, I’m not going
to get their respect, they’ll
say: ‘This kid could be my
grandson,’” Sessions said of
the City Council. “But it’s
not about bossing them
around, it will be about cooperating with them.”
Sessions put up signs all
over Hillsdale and cam-
Mayor Michael Sessions
paigned door-to-door.
“A lot of older people really enjoyed talking to me. I
looked them in the eye. Young
people could relate to me,’’
he said.
Ingles had asked earlier,
“How much credibility does
an 18-year-old have?”
Following the election,
Ingles said he would change
nothing.
“It’s an honor to serve in
the City of Hillsdale, and I’ll
continue to work to make
Hillsdale a better place,’’ he
said.
Among the teen’s initial priorities are bringing
jobs to the city, hiring a
fourth full-time firefighter
and meeting with the city
manager and council members.
“I’ve got to get acquainted
with everyone first,’’ he said.
“I’m just glad people are giving me the opportunity to
show what I can do.”

Cuba opens door to Michigan food products
Historic trade agreement to boost economy by
$10 million
Lansing, MI: The state
of Michigan can now
count Cuba among its major international trade partners as a result of aggressive efforts to expand the
state’s export market.
The lobbying effort,
lead by delegates from the
Michigan Department of
Agriculture, Michigan
Farm Bureau, Michigan
Agriculture Commission,
several
commodity
groups and private industry, could generate $10
million for the state under
an historic agreement
signed this week with the
island nation.
“Michigan is prepared
to knock on doors here
and abroad to promote
our quality products, expand our markets and diversify the state’s
economy,” said Mitch
Irwin, MDA director.
“Today’s agreement is
just one of many doors
opening and we intend to
take full advantage of
those opportunities.”
“Although
Michigan interests have sold
limited products to Cuba in the past, it is
clearly on the cusp of becoming an important trading partner,” said Jim Byrum,
chairman of the Michigan
Agriculture Commission.
Under the agreement,
Cuba intends to purchase
Michigan agricultural products, such as apples, peaches,
dry beans, potatoes, and
cattle, over the next 18
months. Until now, only limited quantities of dry beans
and turkeys had been imported.
“To have Cuba’s buying
agency pledge to spend $10
million on the purchase of
Michigan agricultural products is a compliment to the
state’s agricultural producers and demonstrates that
Michigan has an international reputation for producing high-quality agricultural
products.
“This purchase is a terrific opportunity for the
Michigan agriculture industry, and we look forward to fulfilling the contract with quality products,” said Wayne H.
Wood, president of the
Michigan Farm Bureau,
the state’s largest general
farm organization.
Every year, Michigan’s
second-largest industry
generates $55 billion, employs 1 million residents
and produces more than
200 commodities, of which
a third is exported. In 2004,
those exports generated
$919 million and supported 12,400 jobs.
Other members of the
trade mission included
Don Armock of Riveridge
Produce Marketing; Bob
Green of the Michigan
Bean
Commission;
Ezequiel Giménez of
North Bay Produce; and
Julia Hersey of the Michigan Apple Committee.

Neo-Nazis plan return to Toledo
TOLEDO, OH (AP):
The neo-Nazi group
whose visit last month
touched off rioting said
Wednesday it plans to
return to protest how the
police and the city
handled its visit.
Spokesman Bill White
said the National Socialist Movement plans to
demonstrate downtown
Saturday, Dec. 10.
Rioters looted businesses and threw bricks
at police during the Oct.
15 rioting. The unrest
lasted about four hours.
Police arrested 114 on
charges including assault, vandalism, and failure to obey police.
The worst violence
broke out after the march
was called off and rioters
turned their anger toward
police because they felt officers were protecting the
neo-Nazis and did nothing
to stop their plan to walk
through their neighborhood.
Instead of a march
through the northside
neighborhood, the neo-Nazis plan to rally this time on
the steps of City Hall for an
hour or two, White said. He
estimated there will be 80
to 120 members of the
group.
Fewer than two dozen
members showed up for the
march, but the group said
others were denied access
to the area by authorities.
“We are looking into it
to see what our next step
will be,” said Mary Chris
Skeldon, spokesman for
Mayor Jack Ford’s administration. “We’ll have to see
what they do, and we’ll have
to respond.”
Police said they had no
confirmation of the group’s
planned visit.
White, a national
spokesman for the group
and unit leader for the
movement’s Roanoke,
Va., chapter, said he believes his group represents residents who disagree with how the police
handled the group’s Oct.
15 visit in which rioters
burned buildings and assaulted people. He said
the group will apply for a
permit if need be and that
police have the responsibility not to break up the
group’s rally.
White said the group
will be law-abiding and
has no intention of rioting or provoking a riot.
“We react in a calm and
lawful manner,” he said.
“But if somebody assaults
us, we will not hesitate to
defend ourselves.”

Ohio voter turnout was 39.7 percent
(AP): Voter turnout in
Ohio was nearly 4 percentage points higher
than in previous oddyear elections.
There were 3 million
votes cast in Tuesday’s
election, or 39.7 percent
of Ohio’s 7 million registered voters, according
to the final, unofficial
count of Tuesday’s election. Turnout in 2001 and
2003 elections was 36
percent and 36.6 percent,
respectively.
Carlo LoParo, a spokesman for the the office of
Secretary of State Kenneth
Blackwell, said interest in
the five statewide ballot issues was the reason for the
higher turnout.
The highest turnout by
percentage was in Noble
County, 60.2 percent. The
lowest turnout by percentage was 28.9 percent, in
Franklin County.
The highest turnout by
votes cast was in
Cuyahoga County, where
362,906 votes were
counted. The lowest turnout was in Vinton County
where 3,710 votes were
cast.

ADAS distributes youth surveys to measure
drug behaviors
Toledo: Over the next
two weeks, the Alcohol
and Drug Addiction Services Board of Lucas
County (ADAS Board) in
conjunction with The
Community Partnership
will distribute more than
56,000 copies of the 2006
ADAS Youth Survey to
public, parochial, and
charter schools throughout Lucas County. School
superintendents and principals have already agreed
to participate in this ninth
biennial study that focuses
on youth in grades 5-12.
Every other year since
1990 this survey has been
conducted to collect basic
health information, primarily concerning the use of
alcohol, tobacco and other
drugs by young people. It
allows the ADAS Board to
identify current youth attitudes and behaviors relating the use of alcohol,
tobacco and other drugs
and learn how youth gain
access to these products.
Youth participation in this
survey is strictly volun-
tary; parents have the option to have their children
not participate.
According to the ADAS
Board Executive Director
Thomas Bartlett, the survey
is an invaluable resource to
the community.
“The ADAS Youth Survey creates a frame of youth
reported reference for the
ADAS Board in analyzing
youth behaviors relative to
alcohol and other drug use
as well as their attitudes
about alcohol and other drug
use,” Bartlett said.
“This local based information gives Lucas County
service providers an excellent guide to assist them in
tailoring prevention and
treatment programming to
address these issues.”
It is important to note
these results are not used to
identify the individuals who
participate in the survey nor
the schools that agree to distribute them. Deacon
Dzierzawski, Chief Executive Officer of The Community Partnership said this
community survey seeks to
gain input on a community
problem.
“Results from this survey in years past have
played a critical role in
molding prevention programming to meet the specific needs of the youth in
Lucas
County,”
Dzierzawksi said.
“Working to create a
healthier environment for
our youth is an issue involving all sectors of the
community, well beyond
the realm of schools; this
survey gives us a tool to
work with toward that
goal.”
All surveys will be completed and returned by midDecember; results are expected back in mid-April
of 2006. Dr. William Ivoska
of Owens Community College and Dr. Nick Piazza of
the University of Toledo
will work in tandem to tally
and analyze the survey results.

María Rodríguez-Winter part of Carty’s
transition team
Last Friday at campaign headquarters at 10
South Superior Street in
Toledo, Mayor-elect
Carty Finkbeiner announced his transition
team.
Co-Chair of the team
consists of Dennis
Duffey, Rob Ludeman
(Republican city councilman and former candidate for mayor), attorney Tom Palmer, Kathy
Steingraber, and Myron
Stewart (Editor of the Toledo Journal).
The
committee
also includes: María
Rodríguez-Winter,
Teresa Graven, Perlean
Griffin, attorney Bobby
Kaplan, Bill Lichtenwald,
Bob Moore, Jack Murphy,
John Orser, Allison Perz,
Bob Reinbolt, Al Smith, and
former opponent, attorney
Keith Wilkowski.
Rodríguez-Winter is an
All State insurance agent,
with her office directly
across from the Farm Labor
Organizing Committee
(FLOC) and the Sofia
Quintero Arts and Cultural
Center; she was instrumental in the creation of the latter, which currently is directed by Joe Balderas,
whose name had been men-
tioned as a possible replacement for Councilman
Bob McCloskey of District
3, who was victorious Nov.
8 as a councilman-at-large.
On Nov. 8, Finkbeiner
(Toledo’s mayor from
1994 to 2002) defeated
Mayor Jack Ford, 62 per
cent to 38 per cent, for a 4year mayoral term commencing either Jan. 3 or
Jan 2. of 2006.
Mayor Ford had already appointed an interim officer to assist in
the transition, which is
believed to be Tuesday
AM, Jan. 3, 2006, since
Jan. 2 is a holiday.

Carla’s Corner
Por Carla Soto
Las 5 de la farándula
1. Pablo Montero fue
detenido durante el fin de
semana por varias horas
después de que riñó con los
mariachis que se negaron a
continuar amenizando una
fiesta privada. Fuentes
policiales indicaron que
Montero fue conducido la
madrugada del sábado a la
oficina policial en el
Municipio de San Pedro,
en la zona Metropolitana
de Monterrey, después del
altercado. El cantante
permaneció varias horas
detenido hasta que pagó uno
de los vidrios que rompió
al vehículo donde se
trasladaba el conjunto musical.
“Hubo un problema
dentro de la casa donde se
realizaba la fiesta”,
reconoció Montero en una
entrevista con la televisión
local.
“Salí
involucrado,
porque cuando discutíamos
y se abrió la puerta de la
camioneta se quebró un
cristal”, agregó el cantante.
El altercado sucedió
porque los mariachis
decidieron no seguir
tocando en la fiesta, ya que
había vencido el tiempo por
el que fueron contratados.
Esa situación molestó a
Montero por lo que discutió
airadamente con los
integrantes del grupo hasta
que llegó la policía a detenerlo
por quebrar el vidrio de una
camioneta.
2. No estás viendo visiones,
es el regreso de Lidia Avila, a
quien parece le sentó muy
bien el matrimonio porque
regresó más delgada, con una
imagen más sensual y con su
segundo disco como solista,
Así como me ves. De esta
producción se desprende el
primer sencillo A tu medida.
Abre bien los ojos y entra,
porque así como la ves de
seria, también tiene su lado de
femme fatal.
3. Después de 30 años de
no tener una figura paterna, y
de varios intentos por estar
juntos, por fin Cristian
Castro se reunió con su padre
Manuel “Loco” Valdez, el
cual señaló el encuentro como
“emocionante y sentimental”.
Padre e hijo estuvieron juntos en la ciudad de Miami,
donde actualmente radica el
cantante, y ahí el veterano
comediante conoció a su nieta
Simone, a quien por cierto la
llama de cariño Simoneta. La
reunión duró varias horas y
fue privada, aunque se rumora
que una revista mexicana
pagó por la exclusiva.
4. El compositor mexicano
Armando
Manzanero
rechazó hoy que inflija malos
tratos a su esposa, Olga
Aradillas, tal y como denunció
la mujer tras ser encarcelada
por el supuesto robo de un
vehículo del hijo del artista.
Carla Soto
“Soy inocente de lo que
me culpa; nunca la he
maltratado ni dado algún
golpe”, expresó Manzanero
en
un
comunicado
divulgado el miércoles
pasado en Mérida Yucatán.
5. La recién ganadora del
Grammy 2005 a la Mejor
artista Revelación, la
cantante española Bebe, se
enfrascó en tremenda
discusión con los medios de
comunicación durante una
conferencia de prensa
convocada para dar a
conocer su más reciente
disco homónimo, del que se
desprende el sencillo Malo.
Estas fueron las palabras
de la controversial Bebe:
“No he venido a hablar, he
venido a cantar y hasta que
no me escuchen, no voy a
hablar”, respondió la
intérprete, quien sostenía
una cerveza en la mano
mientras se acomodaba en
un sillón y amenazaba a los
fotógrafos que intentaban
seguirla fotografiando.
Luego que Bebe lanzara
amenazas
contra
los
fotógrafos,
algunos
representantes de los medios
de
comunicación
abandonaron el auditorio de
la disquera donde se
realizaría la conferencia, la
cual estaba prevista para el
pasado martes.
En días anteriores la
cantante había cancelado una
conferencia de prensa en esta
ciudad debido a una
contractura en la espalda,
sobre la cual se negó a dar
pormenores. Sin importarle
que la prensa saliera la
intérprete dijo que haber
ganado el Grammy “fue
solamente
una
circunstancia”.
Los chistes de la semana
Una monja que tenía
hipo, va al médico y le dice
al doctor:
Oiga doctor, tengo un
hipo que no se me va.
Empieza el doctor a
analizarla y le dice:
Usted está embarazada.
Se va la monja al convento y
lo cuenta. Al día siguiente va

Tu incertidumbre es completamente innecesaria. La
gente que te rodea sabe lo que tú vales y tu futuro está

la madre superiora y le dice al
doctor:
Pero, ¿Cómo le ha dicho
eso a la monja?
Y le dice el doctor:
Si era para darle un susto,
para quitarle el hipo.
Y dice la monja:
¡Pues el que se ha dado un
susto es el obispo, que se ha
tirado desde la torre!
Una madre da a luz a su
bebé.
Cuando
está
recuperada el doctor le dice:
Su hijo está bien, pero le
tuvimos que poner oxígeno.
Y la madre responde:
¡Que pena, yo quería
ponerle Francisco!
Estaba María en un
juzgado y el juez le pregunta:
María, me han dicho que
usted mató a su esposo.
Y María le responde: Yo
no lo maté, le voy a contar lo
que pasó. Yo estaba lavando
cuando el va y me empieza a
tirar agua, y me dice: ¡Cómo
que te llueve!, yo no dije nada.
Luego me tira piedras y
me dice: ¡Cómo que te
graniza!, yo tampoco
respondí nada. Después el
cogió un látigo y me empezó
a dar, y me dice: ¡Cómo que
te relampaguea!. Entonces ya
me dio rabia, cogí un machete y le di un solo golpe
diciéndole: Como que te parte
un rayo.
Llega un enfermo a ver al
médico y le dice:
-Doctor, cuando me toco
aquí me duele, y aquí
también, y aquí, y aquí...-
A lo que el médico le
contesta:
-Amigo, usted lo que tiene
es el dedo roto.Hay un montón de
manzanas en un árbol y de
repente una se cae. Todas
las de arriba empiezan a
reírse y a burlarse de la que
se ha caído y ésta responde:
No os riáis, ¡Inmaduras!
Llega una viejita con el
doctor y le dice:
Mire doctor, tengo este
problema de que me echo
muchos gases, auque no me
preocupa mucho porque no
huelen ni se oyen, por
ejemplo ahorita me he
echado como 20 y usted ni
se ha dado cuenta. ¿Qué
puedo hacer?
El doctor le dice:
Tómese estas pastillas y
en una semana regresa.
A la semana siguiente llega
la viejita y le dice al doctor:
Oiga doctor, ¿Qué me dio
que ahora mis gases ya
huelen, y muuuy feo?
El doctor le dice:
Muy bien, el problema de
la sinusitis está resuelto,
ahora trabajaremos en su

merly wealthy merchants who had vowed poverty and

La Prensa—Deportes
Mundial: Uruguay logró triunfo “agridulce” frente a Australia ag/lmr
MONTEVIDEO (AP):
En Uruguay quedó un sabor
agridulce tras la victoria
por 1-0 conseguida frente
a Australia en la ida del
repechaje hacia el Mundial
de Alemania 2006, por lo
ajustado del resultado y
porque en la revancha del
miércoles en Sydney, el
saldo de goles puede ser
determinante para la
clasificación.
La palabra “sufrir” está
presente en los titulares de
la prensa el domingo, pese
al triunfo que logró el
combinado frente a los
australianos el sábado en
el Estadio Centenario, con
el gol de cabeza de Darío
Rodríguez a los 35 minutos,
tras un centro colocado por
Alvaro Recoba.
“Ganar y sufrir’’,
resumió el diario El País en
su portada.
El matutino señaló que
Uruguay se impuso a Australia “con lo justo” y
destacó que la “celeste”
buscó
“aumentar
la
diferencia pero no pudo”.
También señaló que “el
árbitro (danés) no cobró
dos penales” favorables a
Uruguay.
“Con lo justo y a sufrir
otra vez”, tituló El
Observador.
El periódico apuntó que
el triunfo “dejó la
sensación de que Uruguay
pudo ampliar la ventaja
ante Australia”, y alertó que
“la diferencia de goles
puede resultar decisiva para
la
clasificación”
al
Mundial de Alemania.
La República destacó
que “Uruguay ganó con
gusto a poco’’.
También indicó que el
combinado local “dejó
enormes dudas en cuanto a
poder
clasificar,
fundamentalmente por la
respuesta que tuvo dentro
del
campo,
siendo
netamente dominado en
varios
pasajes
del
encuentro’’.
Uruguay
está
disputando este repechaje
por haber ocupado el
quinto puesto en las
eliminatorias mundialistas
de la zona sudamericana.
Este duelo se vivió hace
cuatro años, por el
repechaje al Mundial de
Corea-Japón 2002. En esa
ocasión los australianos
ganaron 1-0 en el partido
de ida, disputado en
Melbourne, pero fueron
goleados 3-0 en Uruguay.
Mundial: Inglaterra
vence a Argentina, Brasil
golea
Por KRYSTYNA RUDZKI
LONDRES
(AP):
Inglaterra necesitó dos
goles de último minuto para
vencer a Argentina. Brasil
se encargó de despachar a
Emiratos Arabes Unidos
mucho antes.
Michael Owen marcó
dos goles en los últimos
cuatro minutos del partido
e Inglaterra venció el
sábado 3-2 a Argentina,
mientras que Brasil aplastó
8-0 al equipo árabe en una
jornada de 11 partidos
amistosos internacionales.
Francia empató sin goles
con Alemania e Italia
derrotó 3-1 a Holanda,
poniendo en marcha la
cuenta
regresiva
de
preparación
para
el
mundial de Alemania 2006.
Diez países también se
disputaban el sábado cinco
puestos en la Copa del
Mundo en la primera ronda
del repechaje.
Owen, delantero del
Newcastle y ex del Real
Madrid, anotó su dupla de
cabeza, a los 86 minutos y a
los 91, dejando atónitos a
unos argentinos que ya casi
saboreaban la victoria con
goles de Hernán Crespo y
Walter Samuel. El partido
se jugó en Ginebra.
Wayne Rooney hizo el
primer tanto de Inglaterra.
“Inglaterra tiene un
equipo muy fuerte, con muy
buenos jugadores. Van a
tener un papel estelar en la
Copa del Mundo. Hicieron
un buen partido”, señaló el
técnico argentino José
Pekerman.
En Abu Dhabi, el técnico
brasileño Carlos Alberto
Parreira no tuvo que sufrir
como su colega argentino.
Los
pentacampeones
mundiales bombardearon
de todos los ángulos y
ahogaron el arco árabe con
siete goles en el segundo
tiempo.
Parreira sustituyó a ocho
jugadores,
buscando
evaluar su talento para
definir la alineación que
viajará a Alemania. Los
reemplazos Juninho y Fred
marcaron dos goles cada
uno, y Kaká, Adriano,
Lucio
y
Cicinho
redondearon la goleada.
Brasil terminó así un año
de ensueño, en el que ganó
la Copa América, la Copa
Confederaciones, y la
eliminatoria sudamericana
al mundial.
“Fue un año dorado, y
fue agradable terminarlo
bien. Espero que el 2006
también nos traiga mucha
felicidad”, indicó Parreira.

Un Poquito De Beisbol Con Sabor Bilingüe
Raquel Julich
Special to La Prensa
The Hot Stove Report Major League Baseball - The
Free Agents
Free Agency arrived Friday, November 11th, the first
day Free Agents could discuss terms and sign with new
teams. December 19th, last
day for Free Agents who are
offered salary arbitration to
accept or reject the offers.
December 20th, last day for
teams to offer 2006 contracts
to unsigned players.
This winter, it will be
harder for clubs to find a
“quick fix” in the Free Agent
Market as the list of 278 is
one of the smallest number
of Free Agents in recent
years.
A total of eighty Latino
players filed for Free
Agency: 5 starting pitchers,
20 relief pitchers, 8 catchers, 6 first basemen, 10 second basemen, 5 third
basemen, 8 shortstops, 15
outfielders and 2 (DH) Designated Hitters.
The Top 10 list of Free
Agents include 2 Latino
players; L.A. Anaheim
catcher-Bengie Molina and
Atlanta shortstop- Rafael
Furcal, who is seeking an
annual $9M – 4 year deal.
Also on the Top 10 list, pitchers A.J. Burnett asking $6M
per season, Billy Wagner30M over 3 years, Kevin
Millwood expecting $7M
per season, B.J. Ryan, Trevor
Hoffman, outfielders Johnny
Damon, Brian Giles and 1st
baseman Paul Konerko who
is seeking $52M over 4
years.
After the release of the
Free Agents list, a few players who aren’t eligible found
themselves in the headlines
and perhaps on the move as
well.
Javier Vázquez-starting
pitcher for Arizona is requesting a trade for personal
reasons. The Spanish New
York Media favors his returning to “la gran
manzana,” The Bronx. The
New York/Arizona trade for
Randy Johnson did not turn
out to be such a good thing
for either teams.
The flamboyant Manny
Ramírez has asked to be
traded on an almost yearly
basis since joining the Red
Sox in the 2001 season. In
Boston, he has found fan
admiration and success in the
clean-up spot with the “Big
Papi” of Fenway Park and
the rumor now is that where
Ramirez goes so will David
Ortiz.
Another trade speculation
is that outfielder, Ichiro
Suzuki is unhappy after five
successful seasons playing
for Seattle, and still no World
Series ring. Fantasy baseball fanatics would have the
two Japanese super-stars
Ichiro Suzuki and Hideki
Matsui teammates in the
Yankee Stadium outfield.
Take it from me; the Yankees Press Box would not be
able to hold the Japanese
media, let alone English and
Spanish.
On the list is a real Free
Agent “find,” puertorriqueno, centerfielder Bernie
Williams. After 14 seasons
establishing new records for
the Yankees, at 37 years of
age, the time has come for
Williams to “reinvent” his
career. Will he remain with
the Yankees as a DH; will
home grown pinstripe Williams sign with another team
or will the classical guitar,
musically talented “youngster” find another “playing
field”? The 2003 release of
his jazz album “The Journey
Within” is a huge success.
Mrs. Waleska Williams is a
talented chef. Amigos y
amigas, solamente una idea.
The couple has tons of money
and I think a “jazzy café”
could be a good business
venture.
On a more serious note Relief pitcher, Ugueth
Urbina who was traded by
Detroit to the Philadelphia
Phillies during the middle of
last season, last week was
arrested in his native Venezuela and charged with attempted murder. While his
name appears on the Free
SPANISH AMERICAN ORGANIZATION
11th Annual
VS
Agent list, Urbina faces a
bigger challenge off the field
of baseball – his freedom.
This is the second violent
incident in the Urbina family, during September 2004;
his mother was kidnapped
by drug traffickers and held
for a $6M ransom. She was
rescued five months later.
Urbina has said that the case,
once again, comes down to
people trying to take advantage of him.
The Cleveland Indians:
After winning 93 games last
season, General Manager
Mark Shapiro said “we need
to sign back or replace our
Free Agents.” Shapiro has a
total of six that he needs to
re-sign. Pitchers Kevin
Millwood, Bob Wickman,
Scott Elarton and Bob Howry
and José Hernández. The
Indians need a “big bat” and
yes, they would welcome
back the inexpensive Free
Agent - Juan González, providing he were healthy.
Other players who could
return to the “Jake” include
former Indian, outfielder
Brian Giles. And, how about
Manny Ramírez? He made
his Major League debut in
Cleveland 1993-2000. He
recently said he would consider Cleveland if Boston
would trade him. Signing
Ramírez would be like playing the Ohio Lottery. The
question is do the Indians
Lottery Results for Saturday,
November 12, 2005
want to play and do they
have the dollar to pay?
Ramírez wants $20-milliona-year.
What’s up in Detroit?
This season, Free Agents are
not on the menu of the Tigers as the Toledo Mud Hens
are in good position on the
Tigers’ development ladder.
Pitching. Justin Verlander,
Joel Zumaya or Roman
Colón who can pitch as a
starter or reliever. It will be
open competition for the rotation spots during Spring
Training. Catcher. Ivan
“Pudge” Rodríguez began
his career with Texas as one
of the youngest catchers to
start in the Major Leagues.
The 34-year-old veteran will
be catching in his 16th season. After the stress filled,
emotional, breakup of his 15
year marriage, and the frustration of the Tigers team
falling way below expectations, the 2005 season was
not a good one for Pudge.
We were glad to see during
World Series as he received
a well deserved honor—he
was voted by the fans into

Obituaries
RICK CORRALES
LA (AP): Rick Corrales, a former Los Angeles Times photographer who helped the
newspaper win a Pulitzer Prize for public service and invented the innovative 360-degree
Spinshot camera, has died of stomach cancer. He was 48. Corrales, who worked for the
Times from 1981 to 1995, died Monday, said Frank Sotomayer, an editor at the
newspaper. His photos of Southern California’s Latino community helped the Times win
the Pulitzer for public service in 1984. Corrales invented, patented and manufactured the
360-degree Spinshot camera, selling about 1,000 units. Corrales also was an innovator
in 3-D animation software and teamed with former Times photo editor Raleigh Souther
in a company called Motion Graphix. The company, formed in 2000, specializes in
software that creates two-view, hologram-like photographs for use as souvenirs, party
favors or identification badges. Corrales, who built his first darkroom at age 10, received
a bachelor’s degree in photojournalism from California State University, Long Beach.
ABIGAIL R. FERNÁNDEZ
Abigail R. Fernández, 89, died November 10, at Whetstone Care Center in Columbus,
OH. Preceded in death by husband Gilbert and survived by sons, Gilbert Fernández,
Robert (Vanessa) Fernández; daughter, Diana (John) Skuratowicz; 8 grandchildren; and
3 great-grandchildren.
MARÍA DE LA LUZ GARCIA
María De la Luz García, 73, of Saginaw, MI, passed away on Nov. 5 at her home. Loving
Wife, Mother, and Grandmother, María De la Luz Medina was born December 13, 1931
in Seguin, TX, the daughter of the late Jesus and Paula (Leos) Medina. She married Ray
García on September 16, 1948 and he survives her. María was a true woman of God and
a very active member of SS Peter and Paul Catholic Church in Saginaw, serving as a
Eucharistic Minister and involved in visiting patients at the hospital. She was very
involved in her children’s and grandchildren’s lives. She was loved by everyone that
knew her. Besides her husband, María is survived by six children and their spouses,
Virginia (Gary) May, St. Charles, Rosemarie García, Saginaw; Rubén (Gloria) García,
Saginaw; Christine (Edward) Osuna, Saginaw; Robert (Mary Lou) García, Livonia; and
Alicia (Rob) Okeley, Saginaw; twenty-five grandchildren; twenty-two great grandchildren; seven great great grandchildren and five siblings, Antonia (Ignacio) Guerrero,

JOSEPH L. HERNÁNDEZ SR.
God called his son, Joseph L. Hernández, home on November 7th, at St. Luke’s
Hospital, Maumee, OH. Joseph was born on July 19, 1950, in Wauseon, OH to John
Hernández Sr. and Betty (Mendieta) Hernández. He graduated from Bowling Green High
School and later from Bowling Green State University. Joe had been a successful
businessman in the insurance industry for 35 years starting his career with Woodsman
Accident Insurance. He was an exclusive agent for Allstate Insurance for the past 30
years, where he was the first Latino agent ever to be hired in the state of Ohio. He owned
a Toledo office and Napoleon office. He leaves behind a record-breaking sales legacy,
including multiple life millionaire achievements and company conference awards.
Though his awards have always been accepted in the limelight, he never ceased to love
and appreciate the friendship of his loyal business manager, Judy Kitchings.
Joe was a truly unique character with a personality that broke the mold. Within
minutes of meeting, people would fall in love with him as if they had known him all their
lives. His inimitable humor and infectious laugh brightened the lives of all who had the
honor of knowing him. There was no line between family and friends with Joe. The love
he had for his family is indescribable and only God can translate the words.
Joe has left a footprint on the heart of everyone he has ever met. He spent his lifetime
giving to others. He coached girls’ fast pitch softball for Perrysburg and numerous travel
teams. He was a member of the Rossford Eagles and Napoleon Moose Lodge. He enjoyed
playing golf, bowling, euchre, and fishing. He was a musically gifted soul using the
drums, guitar, accordion, organ, and voice. He was a true entertainer when singing
karaoke, anything Elvis, of course. Joe was also an avid prank caller, who would always
get you no matter what.
He left behind his soul mate and best friend, Teresa. He left behind his girls, who were
the sparkle in his eyes, Victoria (Sam) Pratt, Jessica Hernández, Tami (Rob) Paulson,
Traci Szegedi, and baby brat, Erica Hernández. Five grandsons and two grand-daughters
will also smile with the greatest of memories. Also surviving are his mother, Betty;
brothers, John (Nancy) Hernández and Tony Hernández. John Navarez and María
Sherman will mourn a special uncle that was known to them as a father.
Joe will walk hand-in-hand into the gates of heaven with his father and two sisters. At the
time of his departure, he was surrounded by many loved ones. He will forever be missed,
but never forgotten. The family suggests contributions to the American Diabetes
Association or Northwest Ohio Kidney Foundation.

Un Poquito De Beisbol Con Sabor Bilingüe
the “Latino Legends Team.”
It’s expected that he will
return for the 2006 season a
stronger player and a better
teammate. Having the veteran Jim Leyland as Manager is Detroit is a plus for
Rodríguez and the Detroit
Tigers.
Cincinnati Reds. General Manager Dan O’Brien
doesn’t expect participation
in the Hot Stove season to be
“all that hot at all”, after adding $17M to payroll last season and not getting winning
results. The greatest need in
Cincinnati is pitching and
O’Brien has decided to venture other routes. O’Brien
will spend the winter months
working with 3 objectives:
1) checking the Minor
League Free Agent pool, including the Far East and
Winter Ball in Latin
America, 2) arbitration with
9 of the Reds players and 3)
considering trade options
involving position players.
Other teams have approached O’Brien about
trades involving his four outfielders Adam Dunn, Austin
Kearns, Willy Mo Pena, including catchers Jason
LaRue and Javier Valentine.
Ken Griffey, Jr. anyone?
The Reds plans are to keep
the left side of the Great
American Ballpark infield
intact with 3 rd baseman
Edwin Encarnacion and
shortstop Felipe Lopez.
Other “veteranos” on the
Free Agent list: Atlanta 2B
Julio Franco, at 47 years of
age, he is the oldest active
player in Major League
Baseball. Rafael Palmeiro
and Sammy Sosa with Baltimore, it would take to much
space to cover their problems in this report. Nomar
Garciaparra, with the Cubs
and without a Boston World
Series ring. Juan Gonzalez
“IGOR!” Frank Thomas
earned a Chicago White Sox
World Series ring just by
hanging in there. Mike Piazza, happy go lucky ready
to return to the Dodgers. Benito
Santiago, el maestro de los catchers. Roberto Alomar, retired,
what is he doing on the Free
Agent list? Sandy Alomar, Jr. is
on the list too, and so is Carlos
Baerga.

New holiday musical, “Mooseltoe: A New
Moosica,” comes to LCCC Stocker
Arts Center Stage
Elyria: Looking for a new
way to celebrate the holidays
with your children besides
The Nutcracker and Ebenezer
Scrooge? Start a fresh new
Christmas tradition with an
enchanting new holiday
moosical, “MOOSELTOE: A
NEW MOOSICAL.”
This family event has received rave reviews across
the country, and descends
onto the stage of Lorain
County
Community
College’s (LCCC’s) Stocker
Arts Center for one performance only at 3:00 p.m., Sunday, December 18.
“MOOSELTOE: A NEW
MOOSICAL” is an enchanting new holiday musical
which was created by Jim
Semmelman (book/lyrics)
and George Kramer (music).
It is the story of a moose with
a dream to fly with Santa’s
reindeer.
Hero
moose—
Mooseltoe—pursues his
seemingly impossible quest
while learning many valuable lessons that are important for us all. The moose
and his friends—all 16 unforgettable characters which
include three snobby penguins, a walrus, and a talking
snowball, not to mention two
elves and Santa Claus himself—come to life in this colorful, magical, and whimsical tale. The ‘moosical’ includes eight original, delightfully melodic songs that
accompany this hour-long
odyssey of self-discovery.
Celebrities from Broadway, television, and the movies provide the voices of
Mooseltoe and his friends.
John Cullum, of TV’s Northern Exposure; Al Roker, of
TODAY Show fame; Tony
Award-winner Faith Prince;
Carole Shelly; and the leading ladies from Broadway’s
“MAMMA MIA!” Karen
Mason, Judy Kaye, and
Louise Pitre, are just some of
the celebrities whose voices
are featured.
An imaginative set de-
signed by leading New York
set designer, Edward Helbig,
of NBC’s TODAY Show, creates the magical world that
MOOSELTOE and his friends
inhabit. Costume designer,
Randy Carafagno, who is responsible for building and
maintaining many of the costumes of the Broadway hit,
“THE LION KING,” has designed 16 amazing and intricate costumes for the show.
Parents will be able to take
pictures of their children with
Mooseltoe after the show.
Tickets for this new holiday family tradition are $15
for adults and $10 for children (12 yr. and under) and
are on sale at LCCC’s Stocker
Arts Center box office, which
is open from 12- 6 p.m. Mondays through Fridays and 90
minutes before show time.

Mi anoranza
Patria,patria quien ha podido olvidarte
entre el frio y el calor de otros suelos
mi anhelo se va desvaneciendo, y en
tic tac del reloj del tiempo, mis años
an pasasdo y aunque siempre te he
recordado y con tu suelo y belleza he
sonado, hoy mi juventud he gastado
y en mi vejes me he resignado que
tus playas y palmeras quisas no vuelva
a ver; pero con orgullo GRITO al viento
que Borrinquen es mi Patria, porque
Boricua soy de nacimiento.

Latino candidates celebrate victories
One reason is that we’ve
had poor leadership. I will
work with the CDCs, and
with the police, the new
mayor, and council. I
worked with the Tremont
West CDC for eight years
and I serve on 13 boards,”
says Santiago.
Lorain’s Escobar
Toledo has its Louis
Escobar and Lorain, Ohio
has Dave Escobar, who,
at 34, ran as an unopposed
Democrat in Lorain, Ohio.
It was his first race. Escobar
successfully ran against
three Democrats in the primary, with no Republican
opposition on the Nov. 8
ballot.
Escobar
represents
Lorain’s Third Ward where
he sees one of the greatest
concerns being the fact that
“everybody’s flooding, and
people are not being paid
for their damages.”
Much of Ward 3 experienced sewer backup and extensive flooding after mammoth, diluvian rains scoured
the area.
The Third Ward has a 60
percent crime rating, another problem Escobar is
hoping to address.
Did he have a large campaign organization? “I
mainly did it by myself with
the help of some close
friends,” he says.
Escobar works for Ohio
Edison. “I read meters and
do collections, and I’m a
member of their First Response Team. My job has
helped prepare me for being on council. I deal with
people everyday—that and
dogs,” he quips.
Torres in Toledo
In Toledo, longtime community activist Robert
Torres won a resounding
victory in his campaign for
election to the Toledo
School Board, being the top
votegetter in that category,
with 25,501 unofficial votes
(20.09 per cent). Torres, the
only Latino in Toledo and
Lucas County to win office
in the Nov. 8 election, is the
director of Toledo’s Hispanic Affairs Commission
(HAC).
Why does Torres believe
voters responded so positively to his campaign? “I
think the voters felt disengagement with the school
board and the school leadership,” he replies.
“People were looking for
a change. Our Three for
Change grass roots campaign understood the needs
of people in the neighborhoods,” he adds.
Torres credits his core of
volunteers with much of his
success. “My campaign was
not run by elected officials
or political power brokers.
My co-chairs, Delphina
Mora and Tracy Martínez,
are both mothers.
“We got a message
across to the community that
grass roots are a positive
force. We ran our operation on a tight budget. My
two opponents outspent me
three to one,” says Torres.
Another factor in his election was his recognition
that it is “important to be
seen at every event in the
community. Even for family
functions, we were out there
and physically visible. Everyone knew who we were,”
explains Torres. Thanks to
his volunteer corps, Torres
was very seldom alone at any
campaign stop. He estimates
his hardcore volunteer group
as comprising between 50
and 75 supporters.
Thankful for his many
volunteers, last Saturday,
Torres met with his main
organizers at El Camino
Real restaurant in Toledo to
plan a campaign support fiesta in December.
Torres thanks Robert
Guiterrez, his marketing
guru, for including symbols
in his campaign signs that
“speaks to Latino pride, and
showed pride in military service.”
Guiterrez was only one
example of Torres’ determination to use talent within
the Latino community. His
campaign treasurer, Sonya
Troche, is executive director of Adelante, Inc., Jesús
and Tammy Avila were responsible for his school appearances, and Michael
Cortez had responsibility
for house parties.
Torres also credits Bill
Lichtenwald, president of the
Teamsters Union, Dennis
Duffey, of the IBEW, and Jack
Wilson, chairman of the Lucas
County Democratic Party,
with playing key roles in his
victory.
“They stepped up and
supported my campaign and
supported me personally,”
says Torres of the three.
When he analyzes the
factors leading to his victory, Torres believes that
“Most importantly, people
wanted change. They
wanted to change the school
system, change the way
they’re doing things, and
change the status quo.
“Our platform was a winning platform. At every one
of the forums we were at,
there was no doubt who
people were going to vote
for. In fact, at the very last
forum, three of my opponents didn’t even bother to
show up.”
Elements of his platform
that struck a chord with voters included community
engagement, parental
support, and school responsibility. He is especially vocal on the concept of parental involvement. “We need
to put a parent at the table
with the superintendent,” he
explains.
He will also fight to remove the ban on parents and
others with whom the administration disagrees from
attending school board
meetings.
Torres advocates a levy
committee independent of
TPS that will recommend
what
the
administration should be
doing. He is also greatly
concerned about an alarming trend in the enrollment
numbers. “We’re losing
kids to charter schools,”

Katrina
(Continuación de p. 3)
La falta de pago a los
trabajadores inmigrantes no
es un fenómeno nuevo, ni
parece ser un fenómeno
agudo en Nueva Orleáns.
Con tanto trabajo por hacer
y sin suficiente mano de obra
para hacerlo, el mercado allí
parece favorecer a los
trabajadores, dijo el abogado
de inmigración David Ware.
Lo que es notable en
Misisipí es la aparente
magnitud del problema,
aunque es imposible de
cuantificar.
En este estado sureño
profundamente afectado,
que
carece
de
un
departamento de trabajo, la
cuestión ni siquiera está en
la agenda.
La falta de pago no está
tipificada como delito según
la ley del estado de Misisipí,
y el Departamento de
Seguridad en el Empleo,
organismo estatal, remite las
reclamaciones salariales al
Departamento de Trabajo
federal. Los trabajadores que
reclaman salarios atrasados
tienen
dos
opciones
formales: interponer una
demanda civil en un tribunal
estatal o presentar una
denuncia federal.
El Departamento de
Trabajo federal reporta un
número
creciente
de
recolección de pagos
atrasados a nivel nacional,
pero una portavoz dijo que
no podía precisar si ha
habido
reclamaciones
posteriores al huracán
Katrina en la región del
golfo. Los fiscales de
Misisipí no han recibido
ninguna denuncia, según
Peter Cleveland, procurador
general asistente.
Sin embargo en la zona
de despeje de escombros,
docenas de trabajadores
inmigrantes
hispanos
entrevistados por la AP
compartían una queja
común: “Trabajé y no me
pagaron”.
En Gulfport, varias
docenas de hombres que
viven en literas improvisadas
en un galpón dicen que les
deben decenas de miles de
dólares.
Al igual que otros
trabajadores,
Alfredo
Roblero vio una oportunidad
en las tareas de despeje, y
fue reclutado en Ft. Pierce,
Florida, con promesas de
trabajo estable por buena
paga, con gastos pagos.
“Te traen para nada’’, dijo
Roblero, de 26 años, quien
calcula que le deben unos
500 dólares por cinco días
demoliendo lo que quedaba
del Casino Magic Biloxi. “Te
deben, y tú tienes que
esperarlos’’.
Muchos
de
los
trabajadores vestían las
camisetas con la inscripción
del Restoration Group, con
sede en Dallas. En una
entrevista telefónica posterior, el presidente de la
compañía, James Rea, dijo
que los trabajadores eran
responsabilidad de un
subcontratista. Insistió en
que todos han sido pagados
y culpó a las compañías de
seguros por toda demora.
En un descuidado
www.la prensa1.com
estacionamiento
de
remolques, dos hombres que
se identificaron como Francisco y Oscar dijeron que les
debían miles de dólares por
semanas de trabajo. No
mucho
antes,
según
defensores
de
los
inmigrantes, más de una
docena de trabajadores se
alojaba en un remolque,
pagando cada uno 10
dólares la noche a un
subcontratista que según
dijeron les quedó debiendo
miles de dólares.
Antes de eso, los hombres
habían trabajado para el
equipo de Karen Tovar, y
también se habían ido.
Tovar dijo que los
hombres no comprendían
las prácticas de pago
estadounidenses,
particularmente la de
trabajar dos semanas antes
de recibir el pago por la
primera.
“He estado en México y,
básicamente, esta gente vive
de semana a semana y
cuando vienen aquí tienen
una concepción equivocada
con ese atraso de una
semana’’, afirmó Tovar.
Agregó que ha trabajado
en la limpieza de los
escombros
de
otros
huracanes, pero que nunca
tuvo problemas para recibir
el
pago
de
otros
subcontratistas. Aunque
ahora está recibiendo una
entrada regular de pagos,
dijo que no son suficientes
para abonar los 130.000
dólares que debe a 83
trabajadores por ayudar en
la limpieza de la base de la
Armada.
Elizabeth Martínez es otra
subcontratista que se ha visto
envuelta en disputas
salariales. Ha estado
viviendo
entre
los
trabajadores en un pequeño
campamento de carpas en
Ocean Springs.
El 12 de octubre, ocho
hombres que habían estado
reparando techos le pidieron
a un defensor de los
trabajadores migrantes que
estaba
visitando
el
campamento que les ayudara
a negociar el cobro de sus
jornales.
Como es frecuente, la
situación sigue en disputa.
Una defensora de los
migrantes,
Anita
Grabowski, dijo que los
hombres, que vinieron a
Misisipí desde Arkansas y
que ahora se han dispersado,
trabajaron dos semanas y se
les debe dinero.
Los
jefes
del
subcontratista con sede en
Alabama que contrató a
Martínez, Hughes Constructing Services LLC, dijo
que los trabajadores no
comprendían que todavía no
estaban programados para
cobrar.
La misma Martínez dijo
que ella no contrató a los
trabajadores para emparchar
los techos y que estaban
tratando de sacarle dinero
que no les correspondía.
Martínez dijo que no
quería pagar hasta revisar
sus registros. Pero los
propietarios de la firma
Hughes
decidieron
adelantar a Martínez más de
15.000 dólares para pagar a
los trabajadores: 10 dólares
la hora regular y 15 dólares
la hora extra.
“Queríamos cumplir’’,
dijo Jody Hughes, uno de los
tres hijos de Hughes que
trabajan en el despeje. Los
hombres
cobraron
y
accedieron a buscar trabajo
en otro sitio.
“A
Hughes
lo
intimidaban’’, dijo Martínez.
``Para mí, es como pagarles
a los malditos terroristas’’.
Una noche fría de fines
de octubre, Martínez estaba
cerca de su carpa discutiendo
con otros tres hombres que
habían conducido dos horas
desde Nueva Orleáns para
quejarse de que ella no les
había pagado.
Martínez le dijo al
negociador principal de los
demandantes,
Antonio
Hernández, que ella había
pagado al cuarto miembro
de la cuadrilla de techadores,
un hombre llamado Rubén
que estaba en Texas.
Llamaron a Rubén por
teléfono celular y éste negó
haber recibido dinero
alguno. Pero uno de los
compañeros de Hernández
admitió que había visto a
Martínez pagarle algo a
Rubén, y Martínez mostró
documentos escritos que
persuadieron a los hombres
que le había adelantado a
Rubén 700 dólares en
efectivo, que los demás no
habían visto.
Los hombres volvieron a
abordar su desvencijada
camioneta para regresar a
Nueva Orleáns con cajas de
alimentos y 150 dólares que
Martínez les dio, “no porque
yo se los deba... sino como
un regalo”.
Justo cuando partían,
Martínez llamó a cuatro
trabajadores guatemaltecos
que llegaron al campamento.
Dijo que un estafador los
había hecho víctimas.
Uno por uno, explicaron
que habían limpiado una
escuela durante 144 horas
con promesas de 8 dólares la
hora. Después uno de sus
jefes los dejó a la vera del
camino sin dinero. Más
adelante, tuvieron suerte de
que los recogiera el autobús
de una iglesia.
Los pobres preguntaron
qué podían hacer para cobrar
su dinero.
Contribuyeron a este
artículo la investigadora de
la Associated Press Julie
Reed en Nueva York y los
reporteros Tom Hays en
Nueva Orleáns y Holbrook
Mohr en Jackson, Misisipí.

considera un ciudadano
japonés.
“El señor Fujimori entró
con pasaporte peruano y él
se
declaró
peruano
respecto a la nacionalidad
que colocó en la ficha de
ingreso al país’’, dijo Lagos
a los periodistas en el
palacio de gobierno, al ser
interrogado sobre la
inquietud del gobierno
japonés por la situación de
Fujimori, actualmente bajo
arresto en un edificio de la
escuela de gendarmería
(prisiones).
Cuando los periodistas
le indicaron a Lagos que el
gobierno de Tokio estaba
pidiendo garantías para
Fujimori en su calidad de
ciudadano japonés, el
Presidente recordó que el
ex gobernante entró con
pasaporte peruano y
agregó: “... le corresponde
en consecuencia a Japón
explicar porqué ellos lo
consideran un ciudadano
japonés’’.
Japón había expresado
interés en que Fujimori, al
que declaró ciudadano
japonés, tenga “un juicio
justo’’ y que se permita a
sus
funcionarios
consulares que se les
permita visitarlo en su lugar
de reclusión.
Lagos pareció también
expresar molestia porqué
Japón no informó de la
salida de Fujimori, quien
permanecía refugiado en
ese país desde hace 5 años.
En
Lima,
el
vicepresidente peruano
David Waisman calificó de
“interferencia inaceptable e
inmoral” el pedido del
gobierno de Japón a las
autoridades de Chile para
que permitan a funcionarios
consulares nipones visitar a
Fujimori en el lugar donde
se encuentra detenido.
“Japón no tiene ni debe
meterse en un tema que involucra a dos estados
soberanos’’, manifestó
Waisman a periodistas en
Lima el martes en la noche.
Fujimori, quien llegó
sorpresivamente a Chile el
domingo en la tarde, tenía
una orden de captura
internacional por su
condición de prófugo de la
justicia peruana, que lo
requiere para responder por
22 cargos que van desde
violaciones a los derechos
humanos a corrupción.
Lagos señaló que “es
mejor, claro está” que en este
caso en que Fujimori está
requerido por la policía
internacional Japón hubiera
informado del viaje.
Mientras tanto, la policía
civil removió de sus cargos a
dos funcionarios de turno en
el aeropuerto internacional
que el domingo permitieron
el ingreso de Fujimori.
“Se ha concluido que el
oficial contralor no cumplió
rigurosamente su labor, no
efectuó las consultas en
forma inmediata ni informó
oportunamente a su superior,
provocando que el alto
mando institucional tomara
conocimiento tardíamente
de los hechos”, dijo el jefe de
comunicaciones subprefecto
Jaime Méndez.
Agregó que el oficial jefe
de turno faltó a sus
obligaciones al no informar
a su superior de las
novedades ocurridas en el
control migratorio”.
Lagos descartó que la
situación de Fujimori pudiera
causar
un
conflicto
diplomático con Perú o
Japón, con el cual Chile está
interesado en firmar un
acuerdo de libre comercio.
Manifestó que el caso está en
manos del poder judicial
chileno.
El magistrado Orlando
Alvarez, de la Corte Suprema,
será el encargado de
sustanciar en primera
instancia el proceso de
extradición que anunció
Perú.
El magistrado, que la
madrugada del lunes, pocas
horas después de la llegada
de Fujimori, dispuso la
detención preventiva del ex
gobernante peruano, rechazó
este miércoles una apelación
de su defensa a la negativa a
otorgarle la libertad provisional.
El magistrado se basó en
que su resolución es
inapelable y que se basa en el
tratado de extradición entre
Chile y Perú de 1932. De
acuerdo a ese tratado,
Fujimori deberá permanecer
detenido al menos hasta que
Perú formalice el pedido
de extradición, que
funcionarios peruanos
estiman tomará unas dos o
tres semanas.
Luego el juez Alvarez
deberá convocar a una
audiencia pública dentro
de 15 a 30 días, donde las
partes expondrán las
razones en favor y en contra de la extradición. La
resolución del juez debe
ser ratificada o enmendada
por la sala penal del
máximo tribunal.
La apelación había sido
presentada a instancias del
abogado peruano César
Nakazaki, quien el martes
llegó al país para dirigir la
defensa del ex gobernante
peruano. La defensa la
asumió formalmente el
chileno Juan Carlos
Osorio.
El gobierno peruano, a
su vez, contrató al
destacado
penalista
Alfredo Etcheberry, quien
hace diez años tuvo la
representación de Estados
Unidos en el proceso contra el ex director de la
policía secreta chilena, el
general Manuel Contreras,
quien fue condenado por
el asesinato en Washington en 1976 del ex canciller
chileno Orlando Letelier.
Fujimori se encuentra
recluído en dependencias
de la Escuela de
Gendarmería, la policía
carcelaria. Ocupa una
habitación de 9 metros
cuadrados que cuenta con
baño y televisión.
Se estableció un
régimen de visitas similar
al de los reos chilenos durante cuatro horas los
miércoles, sábados y
domingos.
Representantes
de
organizaciones peruanas
de defensa de los derechos
humanos protestaron por
la condición privilegiada
en que se encontraría
Fujimori al no estar
recluído en una cárcel
común.
Los activistas de
derechos
humanos
señalaron que abogados
chilenos se harán parte en
su representación en el
proceso de extradición
cuando se inicie su
tramitación.
