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.

About the music produced by Mexican students in Mariachi Tesoro de Tucson. As I try to consider th...

Beat of the Border. Monday, November 24, 2008. Is the great depression almost upon us, again? Well the economy is starting to play an interesting game with the people. Each and every day people are hearing the same thing whether it's on the news, in the newspapers or on the internet about how the economy is hurting and how things could be as worse as if not more than the Great Depression. But then on the other hand gas prices have dropped. An interesting story in the Arizona Daily Star. Another story out...

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...
