Health on the Line. Exploring Public Health Issues On the Border. Sunday, November 30, 2008. Since I've become involved in Border Beat. Not only do I feel like my reporting and multimedia skills have improved, but my awareness of the border truly rose to the surface. For the first time ever, to me the border became less of a piece of land. For the first time in my life, I look at the border as home to many. About the music produced by Mexican students in Mariachi Tesoro de Tucson. As I try to consider th...

Health on the Line. Exploring Public Health Issues On the Border. Sunday, November 16, 2008. The Coalición de Derechos Humanos. Their web site is particularly interesting - with a counter of all the bodies. Recovered in the Sonoran desert. Each year. This year the number is at about 183. In the summer of 2008 and the Bring Down the Wall. L campaign, started in 2003. My favorite way to stay active is being part of the list-serve, which informs me about upcoming events and border-related news. The Coalició...

Beat of the Border. Monday, October 20, 2008. Economy hurting sports and kid's lives? Since the country is feeling the effects of the economic crisis or whatever you can come up with to describe the current situation, the economy is affecting what many Americans love the most, ok maybe behind family and friends: sports. One of the biggest sports in the U.S., Nascar. Leaving Cimmino and others to try and raise enough money to fund the athletic program. By more than $20 million. Because of this it will...

Beat of the Border. Monday, November 3, 2008. UA, ASU and the state of Arizona: All down for the count? As the long road of the 2008 presidential election finally comes to the exciting conclusion on Tuesday night, hopefully more attention will be focused on how things are going not only in Tucson but across the state of Arizona as well. The first story I found looks at the upcoming layoffs and the reorganization efforts on the campus. The third story I found looks at the economy of the state of Arizona.

Life on the Line. Discovering the people, the culture and the lives of those who walk the line. Monday, November 24, 2008. Preparing for our culture. Reunion with the students that I traveled to Spain. With, and spending far too much time looking for a topic this week, I got to thinking about the customs that we were warned about before heading to live in an entirely different culture, one that has different acceptances and expectations. For example, Spaniards. I love the idea of sending our students aro...

Life on the Line. Discovering the people, the culture and the lives of those who walk the line. Sunday, November 16, 2008. Cultures colliding and a reminder of what it means to be alive in this great country is the best way I know how to describe the annual All Souls Procession. In Tucson, Ariz. There is celebration in the air and a sense of harmony among the masses. With influences from all over the world, including traditions from Dia de los Muertos. And the excitement begins. I was raised around the a...

After interviewing Rodney Glassman. The representative of Tucson's second ward. I was left with several impressions, but one of them caught me rather off-guard. While Glassman’s success and dedication as a civil servant are certainly good things, you might be surprised at these achievements as you learn more about him. I will be gra...

La Cultura de la Frontera. Exploring the many cultural themes of the border. Sunday, November 23, 2008. I know that this is off topic, but I feel that it is a worthy enough topic. In the beginning of August, one of the requirements for this blog was to pick a topic and explore it. Some students in my class picked entertainment. I chose the culture. The Hispanic influences here in Tucson. Are incredible, from the food, to the music arts and entertainment. On Friday, during a normal Facebook. I know that t...
