On April 20th, a large explosion detroyed the Deepwater Horizon 50 miles off the coast of Lousiana in the Gulf of Mexico. Since then, BP, the global energy company responsible for the spill, has not been able to stop thousand of barrels of oil from spewing out of the sea floor. This large dark cloud of oil has been making its way towards the coast. Since that day BP has been taking measures to collect the oil spillinginto the ocean, and… Continue

I wandered lonely as a cloud

That floats on high o'er vales and hills,

When all at once I saw a crowd,

A host, of golden daffodils;

Beside the lake, beneath the trees,

Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.



Continuous as the stars that shine

And twinkle on the milky way,

They stretched in never-ending line

Along the margin of a bay:

Ten thousand saw I at a glance,

Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.



The waves beside them… Continue

Everyone grumbled. The sky was grey.

We had nothing to do and nothing to say.

We were nearing the end of a dismal day,

And then there seemed to be nothing beyond,

Then

Daddy fell into the pond!



And everyone's face grew merry and bright,

And Timothy danced for sheer delight.

"Give me the camera, quick, oh quick!

He's crawling out of the duckweed!" Click!



Then the gardener suddenly slapped his knee,

And doubled up, shaking… Continue

We are all guilty of having daydreamed about what we would do if we hit the jackpot one day and won the lottery. I know I have pictured myself taking my friends and family off on a vacation of a lifetime to some exotic country if I ever came across winning the lottery. We say to ourselves, “One day if I ever win the lottery I would… drive around in a limo or give to a charity or buy myself a huge house with a swimming pool.”



We look at the winners of the Texas Jackpot and other major… Continue

Latinas come in all shapes and sizes. Some are light skinned and have blue eyes and others are Morenas with brown eyes. Some speak Spanish better than they do English and some hardly even know Spanish. And although every Latina is different from the next, one thing about Latinas remains true: most Latinas are proud of their heritage.



In today’s America where more couples than ever are interracial and many young kids are multi-cultural, it is becoming harder to define what being… Continue

Hola Latinitas!

I have a sister that is graduating from high school next week and she is super nervous and stressed out. I don't know what advise to give her so she can calm down! What do you girls do to get rid of stress? Or if you graduated from high school or graduating what advise I can give her? I guess she feels like I am too old to understand but I was in that situation and I was the first one to go to college in my family, so she has me to help her out. If you have any tips or… Continue

Now and again, when I scan past Comedy Central on my way to Bravo's ridiculous Housewives or VH1's Sober Houses, I see this ventriloquist Jeff Dunham doing his stand up. He's got multiple puppets. Achmed the Dead Terrorist, Jose the Jalapeno on a stick and another named Peanut which resembles the minstrel cartoons of the 30's, 40's and 50s which portrayed African American's as ape-like buffoons. It's hard to say which one is more offensive. The Dead Terrorist yields laughs as he talks of his…

In his State of the Union address, President Obama pledged to end the law that denies gays and lesbians the right to serve their country. What do you think about this law? Do you think the LGBT community should be allowed to serve in the military?
