“LOS SENTIMIENTOS CUANDO SON PUROS NUNCA CAMBIAN DE COLOR”

Por:CARLIN CARLOS SORIANO.

Amen de todo lo que se dice a "favor y en contra"...Muchos se han quedado atras con un sin numero de etiquetas que estan hoy dia desfasadas...Una figura publica en el show-business vive de la "fascinacion"...Los politicos,los artistas,los deportistas,los geniales,los profetas...todos tienen que acudir a un recurso especifico que les sustente su imagen...Una imagen con poder de atraccion con elementos "cualquiera que sean"(dentro del marco social no corruptible)que nunca "imanten" no surten ningun efecto en el mercado,por consiguiente se "caen en el vacio",se pierde "el misterio" no se alcanza "el objetivo"(resultado final que brinda satisfaccion y que lamentablemente tiene que cumplir con la egolatria humana,muchas veces incontrolable);y precisamente “la imagen” es la principal erramienta cuando se depende de esta “en los negocios”...Quien ha dicho que existe una simetria en la manera de actuar del ser humano y que por consiguiente hay que regirse por los patrones y conceptos que otros creen son los ideales,porque de tal manera hemos sido siempre...CADA QUIEN TIENE EL DERECHO DE MEJORAR Y MANEJAR SU IMAGEN DESDE EL PUNTO DE VISTA QUE SE LOGRE LA “AUTO-SATISFACCION…Lo que se llama "genoma" que es el mapa biologico que reune todas nuestras caracteristicas fisicas hereditarias y de origen,ya no es estatico,esta siendo sometido a grandes variaciones por multiples circunstancias mediante estudios cientificos y por otros agentes externos,que "lo demanda "la era de lo increible y lo excentrico"...EN LA SOCIEDAD DE HOY IMPERA EL CAMBIO Y LAS INVESTIGACIONES EN LABORATORIOS ASI LO ESTAN DEMOSTRANDO...YO AGREGARIA "que todo tipo de cambio exterior esta acorde con la epoca..."Lo importante esta en el corazon"...LOS SENTIMIENTOS CUANDO SON PUROS NUNCA CAMBIAN DE COLOR!!! y este es el caso de SAMMY SOSA.

"AHORA YO ME RIO"
(Featuring:Jochy Hernadez).

La hice para mi amor
mas usted no me entendio
se desciso la ilusion
que habia en mi corazon
es verdad toda ternura
la que habia dentro de mi
y usted fue la criatura
que me hizo tan triste asi

..y ahora usted pasa y yo me rio
en la vida todo pasa y usted tambien paso
de las flores usted era la mas bella
linda rosa perfumada
que con su amor se marchito...

tantas vueltas que uno da
y a esta ciudad yo volvi
y volvi al mismo lugar
donde un dia la encontre
ella dio luz a mi vida
y a mi humilde inspiracion
y su amor fue la mentira
que engaño mi corazon

.. y ahora usted pasa y yo me rio
en la vidad todo pasa y usted tambien paso
de las flores usted era la mas bella
linda rosa perfumada
que con su amor se marchito...

yo jugue cartas marcadas
me engañe y no se por que
quize orientar su vida
y ya ve lo que paso
para usted fui la aventura
usted fue mi inspiracion
y usted fue la criatura
que murio sin oracion

...y ahora usted pasa y yo me rio
en la vidad todo pasa y usted tambien paso
de las flores usted era la mas bella
linda rosa perfumada
que con su amor se marchito...

50 JOBS THAT PAY $50,000

By Kate Lorenz
(Source:CareerBuilder.com)

While the unemployment rate edged up in August to 9.7 — the country’s highest in 27 years — the Labor Department has reported that fewer jobs were lost. While employment continued to drop, that decline appears to be slowing: -216,000 jobs in August compared to -463,000 in June and -276,000 in July.

This latest report also shed some light on discouraged workers:

Among the marginally attached, the number of discouraged workers in August (758,000) has nearly doubled over the past 12 months. Discouraged workers are persons not currently looking for work because they believe no jobs are available for them. The other 1.5 million persons marginally attached to the labor force in August had not searched for work in the 4 weeks preceding the survey for reasons such as school attendance or family responsibilities.

It seems many of the people we at The Work Buzz are hearing from these days are discouraged. They say there aren’t enough jobs, there aren’t the right jobs, there aren’t any jobs.

Yes, it is taking more time these days to find a job, but hopefully, we can help you fight that job seeker fatigue. For example, we told you this week about a new CBsalary tool that matches salaries to jobs.

Many of you tell us that you’ll take any job as long as it pays the bills. Here’s one way this tool might fit in. Say you need to earn $50,000 to support yourself and your family. Type in your location and that number and — voila! — you’ll receive a list of jobs that match that pay an average of $50,000 in your area.

While we’re on the subject, we thought we’d give you a list to start with. Here are 50 jobs that pay an average of $50,000 annually in the United States:

"LA CUALQUIERIZACION DEL MERENGUE EN ESTOS MOMENTOS”




Por:Carlin Carlos.

Realmente es bastante preocupante lo que esta aconteciendo con el merengue en momentos que se critica y se pone en tela de juicio el futuro del mismo;como de igual forma se aduce un declive en terminos comerciales de que esta siendo objeto el ritmo de la guira y la tambora en el gusto del publico basicamente internacional.

Cuando uno sintoniza un programa de television de amenidades donde regularmente presentan conjuntos musicales,lo primero que se observa es un grupo de muchachos que supuestamente conforman un proyecto musical y de manera instantanea se nota que no son mas que un grupo de “ventuses”,los cuales ni siquiera tienen el tiempo suficiente y el fogueo necesario para ser tomados en cuenta,como tampoco tienen una secuencia de por lo menos dos o tres temas musicales pegados en el gusto de la gente;
y de manera cinica y ridicula viven pregonando en sus interpretaciones que son estrellas,que estan acabando con todo el mundo,que son “la ultima cola en el desierto o que “son los que mas mean”.

Se recuerda que otrora cuando una figura emergia con un buen futuro en lo que a interpretacion vocal se refiere dentro de la musica,por lo menos surgia de un festival de la voz o de lo contrario demostraba con credenciales suficientes su talento y sus posibilidades como cantante que le permitirian aceptacion indiscutible en el publico en sentido general.

El asunto no solamente se limita a los cantantes sino que los musicos que les respaldan en el acompañamiento musical dicen lo que son al oirlos sonar,pues muchas veces el desafine y falta de acoplamiento es conspicuo por demas.

Por eso es que se cuestionan los posibles relevos del merengue en estos tiempos,por eso es que la demanda de este ritmo esta en los niveles mas bajos de toda su historia en los actuales momentos,si de popularidad se trata;por eso es que muy poco se le esta tomando en cuenta en las premiaciones de relevancia e importancia a nivel internacional.

Y el descaro mas notable lo constituyen algunos productores de progrmas de television que no tienen ningun rigor ni control de calidad para estar promoviendo proyectos que no van para ninguna parte;con esto se faltan el respeto a ellos mismos y pseudo-alimentan las ilusiones de personas que a lo mejor pudieran dedicarse a otra cosa con mejores perspectivas en otros oficios.

Dizque el merengue no esta en crisis?...Habria que ver,porque en este caso “del dicho al hecho si hay tremendo trecho”.

TALKING IN OTHER LANGUAGE

Helpful Writing Hints1. Know Your Goal
If you don't know where you're going, how can you
get there? You need to know what you are trying to accomplish before you begin any project. Writing a poem is no exception. Before you begin, ask yourself what you want your poem to "do." Do you want your poem to describe an event in your life, protest a
social injustice, or describe the beauty of nature?
Once your know the goal of your poem, you can conform your writing to that goal. Take each main element in your poem and make it serve the main purpose of the poem.

2. Use Images
"BE A PAINTER IN WORDS," says UWEC English professor emerita, poet, and song writer Peg Lauber. She says poetry should stimulate six senses: sight, hearing, smell, touch, taste and kinesiology (motion).

3. Avoid Clichés
Stephen Minot defines a cliché as: "A metaphor or simile that has become so familiar from overuse that the vehicle....no longer contributes any meaning whatever to the
tenor. It provides neither the vividness of a fresh metaphor nor the strength of a single unmodified word…The word is also used to describe overused but nonmetaphorical expressions such as 'tried and true' and 'each and every" Three Genres: The Writing
of Poetry, Fiction and Drama, 405).

Cliché also describes other overused literary elements. "Familiar plot patterns and stock characters are clichés on a big scale" (Minot 148). Clichés can be overused themes, character types, or plots. For example, the "Lone Ranger" cowboy is a cliché because it has been used so many times that people no longer find it original.

A work full of clichés is like a plate of old food: unappetizing.

Clichés work against original communication. People value creative talent. They want
to see work that rises above the norm. When they see a work without clichés, they
know the writer has worked his or her tail off, doing whatever it takes to be original. When they see a work full to the brim with clichés, they feel that the writer is not show-
ing them anything above the ordinary. (In case you hadn't noticed, this paragraph is chock full of clichés... I'll bet you were bored to tears.)

Clichés dull meaning. Because clichéd writing sounds so familiar, people can comp-
lete finish whole lines without even reading them. If they don't bother to read your
poem, they certainly won't stop to think about it. If they do not stop to think about your poem, they will never encounter the deeper meanings that mark the work of an acco-
mplished poet.

4. Avoid Sentimentality
Sentimentality is "dominated by a blunt appeal to the emotions of pity and love...Popu-
lar subjects are puppies, grandparents, and young lovers" (Minot 416). "When readers have the feeling that emotions like rage or indignation have been pushed artificially for their own sake, they will not take the poem seriously" (132).

Minot says that the problem with sentimentality is that it detracts from the literary quality of your work (416). If your poetry is mushy or teary-eyed, your readers may openly rebel against your effort to invoke emotional response in them. If that happens, they will stop thinking about the issues you want to raise, and will instead spend their energy trying
to control their own gag reflex.

5. Communicate Theme
Poetry always has a theme. Theme is not just a topic, but an idea with an opinion.
