Batalla de los Gallos 2007 on September 30, 2007 in Photos

Today was the Batalla de los Gallos event; an annual MC tournament that decides which of Puerto Rico's top battle MCs will be sent off to the Latin American championships.

The 15th Housing Congress of Puerto Rico on September 22, 2007 in Puerto Rico

Yesterday I had the opportunity to represent my municipality in the 15th Annual Housing Congress held in Carolina, Puerto Rico. This is the second time that I have attended the Congress and the 3rd time that a member of our administration has participated. It was refreshing to see some familiar faces and friends such as Miguel Ramirez of USDA-Rural Development,...

Our Legislatibe Bureacracy on September 18, 2007 in Puerto Rico

A few days ago I received a piece of political propaganda from the offices of Senator Jorge Suarez - a young public official who both studied with me and resides in my senatorial district. Despite his compromiso with our municipality and his efforts towards achieving la unicameralidad, my candidate for this district has always been Nestor Duprey - one of...

Argggg! on September 17, 2007 in Humor

I didn't sleep well last night. My arm pit hurts (don't even ask). I passed the entire morning hungry as a troll only to pass the evening sleepy. For those of you who don't know me, when I'm hungry or sleepy I can get a bit grumpy. I had been parched-thirsty for a few hours and that only added to...

"Angel", the Film on September 16, 2007 in Puerto Rico

Local film director Jacobo Morales has blessed us with "Angel", a drama based on the subjects of Police brutality, revolution, and conspiracy. Hitting movie theaters about a month ago, if I remember correctly there are still a couple salas playing it. The movie's release had great timing, for during the previous few weeks at least three cases of police brutality...

Birds in my Plants on September 14, 2007 in

Sometimes I forget to water my plants for weeks. Sometimes I water them too much.

Words from a Disgruntled Net Surfer on September 12, 2007 in

And why is it that Firefox renamed their 'extensions' to 'add-ons'? What was wrong with Firefox 1.0? What killed Netscape, Internet Explorer, Yahoo.com, and other search engines such as Lycos and Altavista is all the shit that they've tried to cram into it. All I want to do is search the net, not toast some bread, dammit.iTunes 1.0 was fine....

MSN 7.5 to 8.1. Boo! on September 12, 2007 in

Microsoft just forced me to upgrade my MSN Messenger 7.5 to Windows Live Messenger 8.1. Not only do I have to sit through an 18mb download but I'm going to have to deal with thousands of icons and features that nobody uses. If I could get away with it, I would still be using MSN Messenger 1.0. Custom emoticons, those...

Tunes One Year Later on September 12, 2007 in Music

Lots of crate digging today. One year ago today the following songs were the song of the hour:GZA - Labels (2:58)Hard hitting beat. GZA demonstrates his skills by writing a rhyme using all the hip-hop and rap label names of the late 1990s.Madlib - Session 3 (1:38)I don't know what's going on in this song, but I like it. Imagine...

3 Years Ago Today... on September 12, 2007 in Photos

I  jump onto the family sticker  fad and get stickers representing my daughter and I.Hurricane Jeane left Puerto Rico without electricity for two weeks, in many parts of the island (including mine). With no electricity, running water, or entertainment, roads were shut, telephones were knocked out (including cell phones) and nobody worked. It was probably one of the coolest experiences...

USAID in Peru on September 12, 2007 in Latin America

I work within my Municipality's external funding division so I always receive information on the latest state and federal grants that are available to the United States and its territories.

The Other September 11th on September 11, 2007 in

Today marks the 6th anniversary of the World Trade Center attacks. After attending a work-related commemoration I felt the urge to express myself on the issue.First of all, much prayer and sorrow is dedicated to the 3,000 people who died during attacks but never do you hear mention of September 11, 1973 where the U.S. government assisted the take over...

Black and White Albany Pics on September 9, 2007 in Photos

I spent a number of my childhood years in Albany, NY. Considering the fact that my sister still lives there with her family, and that it is a place that I will visit every so often, it remains to be a city of interest. A few months ago while working on a project titled Beaverwyck Beats (Beaverwyck - if I...

Addictions on September 8, 2007 in

I don't drink, smoke, club, go to strip clubs, or anything of the sort. I have an addictive personality, one could say, and will quickly dive head first into anything that I might really enjoy. The few addictions I have are pretty out of control (I have more music then I could ever listen to, and continue to purchase 100-CDR...

El Gran Silencio on September 1, 2007 in Music

I remember seeing this video on Puerto Rican television about 6 years back. Wonderful mix of cumbia, Mexican rancheros, hip-hop, reggaeton, and rock if I must say. Check it out. Even if your not into the fusion, peep the dancing, culture, sub-culture, and animation....
