Castro eyesOAS debate,no interest inrejoining

HAVANA, June 3,2009 (AP): Fidel Castrosays he’s never seen somuch rebellion inside theOrganization of AmericanStates, where allies foughtunsuccessfully this weekfor Cuba’s return.

But Castro also reiter-ates Havana’s stance thatit doesn’t want to rejointhe hemispheric group. Ina Wednesday essay in statemedia, the former Cubanpresident says the OASshould not exist and his-torically has “opened thedoors to the Trojanhorse”—the UnitedStates—to wreak havoc inLatin America.

Venezuela, Nicaragua,Bolivia, Honduras, andother countries demandedCuba’s return to the OASduring a summit in Hon-duras. The body failed toreach a consensus.

The U.S. had sought anagreement rescinding the1962 suspension of com-munist Cuba but tying itsreturn to democratic re-form.

El Salvadorreestablecerárelacionescon Cuba

SAN SALVADOR,June 1, 2009 (AP):Presidente salvadoreñoMauricio Funes anuncióque su país restablecerárelaciones con Cubaluego de medio siglo dedistanciamiento.

“El Salvador tendrár e l a c i o n e sdiplomáticas con todoslos países de AméricaLatina, esto significaque de inmediato serestablecerán vínculosd i p l o m á t i c o s ,comerciales yculturales con Cuba”,di jo Funes en sudiscurso inaugural.

El paíscentroamericano rompiórelaciones diplomáticascon la isla luego deltriunfo de la revoluciónsocialista liderada por Fi-del Castro en 1959.

El anuncio llega enun momento en que otrospaíses como EstadosUnidos tambiénsuavizan su postura haciael gobierno de LaHabana.

Gingrichbacks off‘racist’ labelforSotomayorBy JULIEHIRSCHFELD DAVIS,Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON, D.C.,June 3, 2009 (AP):Former House SpeakerNewt Gingrich says heshouldn’t have calledSupreme Court nomineeSonia Sotomayor a rac-ist.

In a letter to supportersWednesday, the GeorgiaRepublican said his wordshad been “perhaps toostrong and direct.”Sotomayor (SUHN’-yasoh-toh-my-YOR’) wouldbe the first Hispanic andthe third woman to serveon the high court.

Gingrich said last weekthat she was a reverse “rac-ist” who should withdrawher nomination, based ona 2001 speech in whichSotomayor said the deci-sions of a “wise Latina”would be better than thoseof a white male withoutsimilar experiences.

Gingrich concededthat Sotomayor’s rulingshave “shown more cau-tion and moderation” thanher speeches and writings.wwwwwwwwwwwwwww.LaPrensa1.LaPrensa1.LaPrensa1.LaPrensa1.LaPrensa1.com.com.com.com.com

LA HABANA, el 3 dejunio del 2009 (AP): Elpresidente paraguayoFernando Lugo, a su arriboa Cuba para una visitaoficial, consideró que laisla era un ejemplo quedeberían seguir los paísesdel continente en materiade solidaridad.

“Más que nuncanecesitamos una AméricaLatina unida y solidaria yen ese sentido Cuba nos ha

dado ejemplo”, aseguró elmandatario ante periodistasa su arribo. Esta es su primeravisita a la isla como jefe deEstado.

En la mañana delmiércoles, Lugo abrió suagenda rindiendo unhomenaje ante la estatua delprócer José Martí instaladoen la Plaza de la Revolución,a pocos metros del Palaciode Gobierno.

Paraguay rompiórelaciones con Cuba en 1960,pocos meses después deltriunfo de la revolución yrecién volvió a normalizarsus nexos en 1999. Desdeentonces Cuba enviócooperantes en salud yeducación.

Lugo tieneprogramado para elmiércoles también asistira la EscuelaLatinoamericana deCiencias Médicas, dondese encuentran becadosvarios cientos de jóvenesparaguayos de escasosrecursos y quienes secomprometen a regresar asus comunidades pobrespara trabajar con ellos.

No se confirmó si elgobernante sudamericanoverá al ex mandatario FidelCastro, quien pese a no saliren público suele recibir aalgunos invitadosespeciales. Tampoco sesabe cuánto tiempo pasaráen la isla.

Toledo, June 1, 2009:President/CEO MichaelStolarczyk (Toledo-LucasCounty Port Authority) was

the guest-speaker at the North-west Ohio Hispanic Chamberof Commerce’s monthly net-working luncheon—theChamber meets the first Mon-day of each month at 11:45AMat Zia’s for speakers, lunch,and networking.

Stolarczyk has a diversi-fied, worldly background but,by his own admission, he isstill in an intake mode, havingnot known the Toledo areauntil recently. He currentlylives in Columbus. “I am agreat listener and learner,”Stolarczyk told Chambermembers and guests.

Stolarczyk, however, isoptimistic about the future ofToledo due to its unique lo-cation as an active port city,surrounded by numerousmegalopolises such as De-troit, Chicago, Cleveland,Cincinnati, and Columbus.

The newly appointedpresident/CEO assured theaudience that he would befocusing on success and thathe would be focusing onToledo as a successful transitcity, competing in a worldmarket.

“I love the diversity ofToledo,” said Stolarczyk.

Department of Interior isallocating $3 billion na-tionally under the Ameri-can Recovery and Rein-vestment Act of 2009 to cre-ate 100,000 jobs that can-

June 3, 2009: While inOhio, Secretary of LaborHilda L. Solis announcednearly $18 million in fundsthat will assist this state’sworkers affected by recentlayoffs. Of that amount, $16million represents newly au-thorized Trade AdjustmentAssistance (TAA) funds to as-sist workers who have lost theirjobs as a result of foreign trade. The remaining $1,657,746 isan increase modification toan existing grant to assist ap-proximately 700 additionalworkers affected by layoffs atthe Chrysler TwinsburgStamping Plant.

“The increase in TradeAdjustment Assistance fundswill provide vital assistanceto more Ohio workers whohave lost their jobs as a resultof foreign trade,” said Secre-tary Solis in Cleveland. “Thegrant increase will allow af-fected workers of the ChryslerTwinsburg Stamping Plant tohave access to the same em-ployment-related servicesthat other affected automo-tive workers in Ohio are re-ceiving.”

All affected workers at theChrysler Twinsburg Stamp-ing Plant have been certifiedby the Labor Department aseligible for TAA. This grantmodification will providethese workers with access to“wrap-around” services thatare not available through theTAA program. These serviceswill include assessment, coun-seling, case management, jobsearch, job placement andfollow-up.

On March 27, 2009, thestate of Ohio was awarded$8,342,254, with $5,074,749released initially, to serve ap-proximately 2,428 workersdislocated from the GeneralMotors (GM) Truck Assem-bly plant located in Moraine,the Chrysler North Assemblyplant located in Toledo, theGM Lordstown plant locatedin Warren and 12 other sup-plier companies locatedthroughout Ohio. This modi-

fication will increasethe total award for thisproject to $10,000,000and will be operated bythe Ohio Department ofJob and Family Ser-vices.

Resources for thismodification to thegrant are from the sec-retary of labor’s discre-tionary fund under theAmerican Recovery and Re-investment Act of 2009. Na-tional Emergency Grants areawarded based on a state’sability to meet specific guide-lines. For more information,visit http://www.doleta.gov/NEG.

The June 3 announcementsfollow another yesterday thatthe U.S. Department of Laborhas certified Ohio to receive$88,169,529 in unemploy-ment insurance modernizationfunding.

Secretary Solis an-nounces release of $88.2 mil-lion in incentive funds

June 2, 2009: While inPerrysburg, Ohio with Gov.Ted Strickland, Secretary ofLabor Hilda L. Solis an-nounced that the U.S. Depart-ment of Labor has certified forrelease $88,169,529 in unem-ployment insurance (UI) mod-ernization incentive funds forthe state of Ohio.

The state qualified for thefunds available under theAmerican Recovery and Rein-vestment Act (Recovery Act)by allowing workers to usetheir more recent earnings toqualify for benefits. Ohio ’sapproved application will beposted at the department’sEmployment and TrainingAdministration Web site athttp://www.doleta.gov/re-covery.

“Ohio recognized the im-portance of having its UI pro-gram better meet the needs ofthe 21st century workforcelong before the Recovery Act,”said Secretary Solis atGlasstech, Inc.

“Ohio uses recent wages

when determining eligibilityfor benefits, which enablesunemployed workers who arerelatively new entrants to theworkforce to receive the assis-tance they need and deserve.”

The Ohio Department ofJob and Family Services canuse the funds to pay unem-ployment benefits or, if appro-priated by the legislature, foradministering its unemploy-ment insurance program ordelivering employment ser-vices.

“Providing additionalfunding for laid off workersand their families during thisrecession is not only the rightthing to do – it is also the rightway to stimulate our localeconomies,” said Gov.Strickland.

“We are grateful that Presi-dent Obama and Ohio’s Con-gressional leaders are provid-ing support for strugglingOhioans and helping to stabi-lize the economy.”

The Recovery Act made atotal of $7 billion available inUI modernization incentivepayments to states that includecertain eligibility provisionsin their UI programs.

Each state can qualify for ashare of those funds by show-ing that its law includes thoseprovisions. To date, the La-bor Department has certified12 other states’ applicationsfor some or all of their shares.

Solis and Gov. Stricklandmade a subsequent appearanceat the UAW Region 2B Head-quarters in Maumee, Ohio,meeting workers and commu-nity leaders concerning theauto industry and the need forhigh-tech jobs.

Speaking at theCity Club of Cleve-land on June 2, 2009,Secretary of InteriorKen Salazar said thecountry’s economicrecovery will begin inOhio. The Buckeyestate is slated to re-ceive $23 million of

which more than $7 millionwill be invested in CuyahogaValley National Park to up-grading nine miles of rail-road, closing four hazardousabandoned oil and gas wellsto restore the natural land-scapes, and repairing the his-toric Tinker’s Creek aque-duct.

“The investment we aremaking in Ohio will createjobs,” Salazar said. He saidPres. Obama has made eco-nomic recovery a top prior-ity and the administration isseeking solutions that willset the nation on a path toenergy independence,

Salazar said national parksites in the Great Lakes statespump $211 million into thelocal economies and sustain4,400 jobs. “At CuyahogaValley National Park alone,two and a half million peoplevisit each year, spending $38million annually in the local

economy, supportingnearly a thousand jobs,”Salazar said. “Supportingour parks and refuges issomething that benefitseveryone.”

He added this invest-ment enhances the qualityof living, conserves naturaland cultural history, renewsan appreciation of the natu-ral wonders, and makesthem available for futuregenerations to enjoy. Hestressed the importance ofreengaging the youth inoutdoor recreational activi-ties so they can appreciateand respect the environ-ment and become consci-entious consumers.

Salazar said U.S. lags be-hind Denmark, Britain, andBrazil in renewable energyuse while it has more re-sources. “If a third worldcountry like Brazil can be-come energy independentthere is no reason we can-not,” he said. The GreatLakes winds have the ca-pacity to generate 20 per-cent of the nation’s energy.

He applauded Ohio lead-ers for pursing indicativesthat will harness solar andwind energy in the Stateand pointed to success sto-ries like Atlantic City, NewJersey, which produces 30percent of its energy fromsolar plants.

MONROE, June 7, 2009(AP): As investigators awaittest results on a child’s bodyfound by a southeasternMichigan river, the motherof a missing 5-year-old girlsays she’s “completely in-nocent.”

Monroe County authori-ties said Sunday they werepursuing leads as they waitedfor DNA test results from astate police lab to confirmthe body is that of NevaehBuchanan. It was discov-ered Thursday next to theRiver Raisin.

“I’m completely inno-cent,” Jennifer Buchanantold the Detroit Free Press. “Ididn’t have anything to dowith my daughter’s disap-pearance. I don’t do drugs. Ihardly ever drink. I don’towe anybody any money. Ihave hardly any enemies.

“I don’t understand whowould come up and take mychild.”

Police haven’t an-nounced any suspects in thedisappearance.

Nevaeh’s grandmother,Sherry Buchanan, got cus-tody of Nevaeh after Jenni-fer Buchanan was convictedfor breaking into homes to

support a drug habit.The three were sharing a

Monroe apartment whenNevaeh disappeared May24, 2009.

“I feel like everyone hasa lot of negativity aboutme,” Buchanan said. “Theydon’t personally know me.... I feel like everyone isputting me in the categoryof ... parents who actuallydid harm their children. ...It’s very frustrating.”

Buchanan said she lastsaw Nevaeh when the girlleft the apartment to visit an8-year-old friend.

“Mom, I’m going up-stairs to ... play a game,” themother quoted her daugh-ter as saying.

“I trusted her enough forher to actually go,”Buchanan said. She said shebecame concerned after twoother young girls came bythe apartment and she be-gan an increasingly franticsearch for her daughter.

She said her heart sankwhen she found the purpleand green scooter Nevaehoften rode.

“My stomach went intoknots,” Buchanan said. “It’slike a nightmare.”

Lorain County: There’sno better way to spendFather’s Day weekend thanan afternoon in the park withdear old Dad…so join in thefun at the Celebration of Fa-therhood on Saturday, June20, 2009, from noon to 5:00pm at Lakeview Park inLorain (part of the LorainCounty Metro Parks on WestErie Avenue near Rt. 58).

Sponsored by the HealthyFathering Collaborative ofLorain County (HFCoLC), itis a free event opened to allLorain County dads and theirchildren. There is no regis-tration required.

ARIES: MARCH 21 - APRIL 20A little more trust would work wonders right now.

Multiple forms of interference are making it hard toknow what will happen next. You can’t control this sosit back, relax, and let whoever’s in charge iron it out.

TAURUS: APRIL 21 - MAY 20As you wait for this to come to a boil keep yourself

busy by clearing the decks for what lies ahead. Multipleforms of interference could confuse you. Don’t lose yourfocus. This will work out perfectly soon enough.

GEMINI: MAY 21 - JUNE 20Too much is hanging in the balance for people who

take more than they give to be calling on you to savethem. You haven’t got time for this, and you know quitewell that if you give them an inch they’ll take a mile.

CANCER: JUNE 21 - JULY 20Check out where you were about a year ago. Framed

against where you are now, things are looking up. Aftera long period of intensity life has leveled off enough toreveal a deeper sense of meaning and purpose.

LEO: JULY 21 - AUGUST 20You could apologize. What was said in a moment of

anger shouldn’t be the final word. Admitting you’rewrong will open up the space for both of you to see thattaking anything personally never works.

VIRGO: AUGUST 21 - SEPTEMBER 20You’ve got too much to do. Staying organized should

be your main priority. If this feels like more than you canhandle, it’ll be easier if you accept the fact that yourpersonal life will be on hold for a while.

LIBRA: SEPTEMBER 21 - OCTOBER 20You may be sweating out a few heavy decisions but

things are working well on so many levels you can’tcomplain. Most people don’t have it this good and theyaren’t doing what they love. Consider yourself lucky.

SCORPIO: OCTOBER 21 - NOVEMBER 20Things are changing so fast, in the course of reinvent-

ing yourself you can’t be too picky about who comesalong to show you the way. Allies come in all shapes andsizes. Don’t close yourself off to anyone.

SAGITTARIUS: NOVEMBER 21 - DECEMBER 20Don’t waste too much effort on lost causes. When

you’re back’s against the wall it’s usually time to surren-der. If losing it all scares you, something far morevaluable will rise from the ashes of this crisis.

CAPRICORN: DECEMBER 21 - JANUARY 20Overwhelmed by the fact that everything seems to be

up to you, you’re not in the mood to be the strong one.No one hired you to play this role. Saying ‘no’ insteadof ‘yes’ would eliminate most of your stress.

AQUARIUS: JANUARY 21 - FEBRUARY 20Your abandonment issues stem from an old, old

pattern. The lesson in the pattern has to do with becom-ing totally self reliant. Don’t waste too much timeplaying victim. Move forward independently ASAP.

PISCES: FEBRUARY 21 - MARCH 20You have all the symbols of success, but your life is

devoid of fulfillment. The feeling that you’re missingsomething can’t be ignored. Finding out what that is willsoon become your main occupation.

AGUADILLA, PuertoRico, el 4 de junio del 2009(AP): El presidentedominicano LeonelFernández y el gobernadorLuis Fortuño firmaron eljueves una acuerdo queincentivará proyectosconjuntos que van desdeel tema energético hasta lap r o d u c c i ó ncinematográfica.

“La DeclaraciónConjunta para AlianzaEstratégica entre PuertoRico y RepúblicaDominicana fortalece larelación entre estosgobiernos, duplica elvolumen de negocios yfomenta el compromiso depromover la prosperidadbajo el tratado de librecomercio CAFTA con esanación del Caribe(Dominicana) y EstadosUnidos” destacó Fortuño.

Los mandatarios de losdos países sostuvieron unencuentro en la ciudad deAguadilla, a 130kilómetros de San Juan,en la costa oeste de PuertoRico, la más próxima aRepública Dominicana.

Fernández explicó que conel uso de la caña de azúcardominicana se podríaproducir etanol “mediante unacuerdo con Puerto Ricodonde esta isla podría haceruso de éste sin el pago dearanceles aduaneros y hastase podría exportar a losEstados Unidos”.

“Podemos tener unarelación triangular. PuertoRico, como centro dedistribución, ya que el etanolentraría sin tener que pagarimpuesto de aduana y la islaserviría de puente con EstadosUnidos”, propuso elpresidente dominicano.

Los dignatarios tambiéntrataron sobre la mudanza deltransbordador que enlaza lasdos islas.

Fortuño dijo que eltransbordador debepermanecer en el oeste y comomedida para garantizar estorecomendó al alcalde deAguadilla, Carlos Méndez,que desarrolle el puerto de laciudad.

“Lo importante es queestos vínculos marítimos yaéreos, a través delaeropuerto, se sigan

fortaleciendo con nuestroshermanos dominicanos”,recalcó.

Fortuño tambiéndescribió como “una granoportunidad” para PuertoRico el “tener laCorporación de Cine en laisla” y dijo que dialogó conFernández la posibilidad dedesarrollar una industriacinematográfica que dejeestablecida las raíceslatinoamericanas.

“Podemos desarrollarproyectos conjuntos”recalcó el gobernador.“Esta industria siemprebusca lugares, podrían serla República Dominicanay Puerto Rico”, comentó.

No faltó la inmigraciónilegal dominicana entre lostemas tratados porFernández y Fortuño. Elpresidente dominicano dijoque en la medida que selogre una estabilidadeconómica en su país lasituación habrá de mejorar.

“Pienso que por elcamino que vamos y con eltiempo se logrará unareducción significativa”,concluyó.

PONCE, Puerto Rico, el4 de junio del 2009 (AP):Cuba quiere que se lepermi ta v ia ja rdirectamente desde LaHabana a Puerto Rico yque no se le cobre a lade legación por laconcesión de visas paraparticipar el año que vieneen los JuegosCentroamericanos y delCaribe que se disputaránen la ciudad de MayagJuez.

“Creo que ésta y otraspeticiones de Cuba sonjustas porque los cubanosno piden nada especialsino que se les de un tratoigual que al resto de lasdelegaciones visitantesque van a participar enestos juegos”, di jo eljueves el vicepresidentedel Comité Olímpico dePuer to Rico , I s rae lRoldán.

“Lo que desea ladelegación cubana es quelos requisitos que se lepongan a México, Ven-ezuela o Repúbl icaDominicana sean iguales

a los de ellos”, agregóRoldán, quien viajó a LaHabana el pasado fin desemana para conversar conla dirigencia deportiva deCuba sobre la participaciónde esa isla en la cita re-gional.

Roldán dijo a la AP queCuba, que podría traer unadelegación de cerca de1.000 personas, desea quese le permita venir enaviones f le tados comoocurrió en 1993 para losJuegos Centroamericanos ydel Car ibe de Ponce ,cuando esa de legaciónviajó directamente a PuertoRico y no a través de untercer país.

“En realidad no tienesentido que, si se va apermitir que Cuba venga alos Juegos de Mayag Juez,(se le ex i ja ) que pareprimero en Panamá o quehaga una escala en México,si puede venir directamentea Puerto Rico. Esa peticiónes bastante razonable y hayque estudiarla para ver laviabilidad”, manifestó.

Las visas para ingresar a

Puerto Rico las concede elServicio de Inmigración yNaturalización de EstadosUnidos . A lasdelegaciones cubanas quepar t ic ipan en jus tasdeportivas se les exigellegar a Puerto Rico através de un tercer país.

Además, Roldán revelóque Cuba solicita que nose le cobre por el gobiernoes tadounidense , comoocurre actualmente, 110dólares a cada a t le ta ,técnico o d i r igentepar t ic ipa en eventosdeportivos en Puerto Rico.

Los cubanosigualmente desean que notengan que solicitar elvisado con 90 días deantelación a los juegos.Tradicionalmente, cuandose rea l izan JuegosCentroamericanos y delCar ibe , e l pa ís sedepermi te que losin tegrantes de lasdelegaciones visitantesingresen só lo con e lpasaporte y la credencialdeportiva.

“Eso es precisamente loque están pidiendo loscubanos”, dijo Roldán.

La semana próxima,d i r igentes de l comi téorganizador de los juegosse van a reunir con elsecretario de Estado dePuer to Rico , KennethMcCl in tock , paraplantearle las peticionesde Cuba y pedirle queayude a que el gobiernode Estados Unidos accedaa las mismas.

Aunque El Salvadorpueda quedar fuera delmundial, siempre lequedará el gusto de vencercomo locla a México, eldesvalorado gigante de laCONCACAF.

Los centroamericanosrepitieron la historia de laeliminatoria regional almundial de 1994, cuandotambién vencieron a losmexicanos por el mismomarcador en esta capital.Sin embargo, al final lossalvadoreños se quedaron

TEGUCIGALPA, el 7 dejunio del 2009 (AP): Por laausencia de su estelar arieteDavid Suazo, Honduras notuvo poderío en el ataqueante Estados Unidos y poreso perdió, comentó el extécnico nacional José de laPaz Herrera, conocidopopularmente como“Chelato Uclés”.

Estados Unidosremontó para derrotó 2-1 aHonduras en Chicago.

“El ataque ofensivohondureño no fuesuficiente, se notó laausencia de Suazo”,subrayó. “En casa, nosarreglamos sin Suazo, peroal hacerlo afuera si lonecesitamos”.

Señaló que “pese a suveteranía, Carlos Pavón noreemplaza a David... ynecesitamos más jugadoresde ataque”.

Calificó asimismo de“peligroso” y “difícil” elencuentro que el miércolesHonduras sostendrá con ElSalvador en el estadioOlímpico Metropolitanode San Pedro Sula.

“Los salvadoreñosvienen con la moral muy enalto tras ganar el sábado 2-1 a México. Por eso noscostará ganarles. Y será ter-rible para nosotros si ellosnos sacan un punto alempatar... hay que ganar esepartido”, advirtió.

Por su lado, el diario lo-cal Tiempo dijo que “fuetriste la remontada. Hondu-ras no pudo sostener laventaja que tenía y terminócediendo ante EstadosUnidos, y con eso ponecuesta arriba la clasificaciónal Mundial porque nosobliga a ganar en casa yesperar que México pierdapuntos”.

Carlo Costly puso enventaja a Honduras a loscuatro minutos. Sin em-bargo Landon Donovan depenal igualó el marcador yCarlos Bocanegra, a los 67,remontó y le dio el triunfo aEstados Unidos.

El Heraldo afirmó que “laselección se encontró conun rival que le quitó la pelotay no lo dejó reaccionar. Losvientos de Chicago

soplaron a favor delequipo de las barras y lasestrellas.

“A Estados Unidos noes de dejarlo manejar eljuego, si controla la pelotaes seguro el triunfo.Precisamente anochesucedió eso, se adueñó delpartido y se llevó los trespuntos”, acotó.

El Salvador está en elhexagonal final de laCONCACAF con cincopuntos y Honduras concuatro. Les siguen Méxicocon tres y Trinidad y To-bago en el fondo con dos.

La quinta fecha secompletará el miércolescuando México recibe aTrinidad y Tobago en elestadio Azteca, y Hondu-ras a El Salvador.

ANN ARBOR: Companiesthat join with social causes tosell products not only en-hance their image, but alsoimprove their bottom line, sayUniversity of Michigan re-searchers.

“Cause marketing, inwhich firms donate part of theproceeds from sales of certainproducts to a specified cause,is now a strategy adopted byhundreds of firms to increasesales for a wide variety of prod-ucts, from coffee to cars,” saidAradhna Krishna, theWinkelman Professor of Re-tail Marketing at Michigan’sRoss School of Business. “Butit is often associated with priceincreases, as well.”

A few well-known ex-amples of cause marketing in-clude: Project Red, which en-compasses several companiessuch as the Gap, Motorola,Apple, Con-verse, Dell,Microsoft,A m e r i c a nExpress andothers toraise money for the GlobalFund to fight AIDS, tubercu-losis, and malaria; 3M’s Post-It Super Sticky Notes im-printed with pink ribbons tohelp fund cancer research andtreatment; and Snapple’sbottled water sales to helpbuild playgrounds in poorcommunities.

In a new study forthcom-ing in Management Science,Krishna and Uday Rajan, anassociate professor of financeat Ross, found that cause mar-keting can increase sales—but can also raise prices—ofthe cause-related product, aswell as of other products thatthe company sells.

One underlying reason forthe price increase thatKrishna and Rajan identify isthe additional benefit thatconsumers get from buying acause-related product. Con-sumers feel good about thefirm selling the product, andalso about themselves whenthey purchase such a product.Further, consumers can evenfeel good about buying a dif-ferent product from the firm,one that is not related to acause.

It’s this spillover effect toa company’s other productsthat can make cause market-ing worthwhile, the research-ers say. In fact, even if a firmis unable to increase the priceof a cause-related productenough to compensate for thedonated money or if it simplyties a low-selling product tocause marketing, it can stillincrease its profits—as longas consumers feel good aboutbuying the company’s otherproducts.

Firms that raise prices onboth a cause-related productand other non-cause productsearn higher profits than if theydon’t participate in causemarketing at all. In addition,companies will never place

their entire portfolio or prod-uct line in a social cause cam-paign.

“Firms can use cause mar-keting to increase prices andprofits, but should be awareof the implications of placingdifferent products on causemarketing,” Rajan said. “Forpublic policy officials andconsumers who may believethat cause-marketing firms aremore caring firms and are genu-inely interested in helpingothers, it may be insightful tounderstand that cause mar-keting also allows firms toincrease their prices and prof-its.”

La comercialización concausa: ¿altruismo ocodicia?

ANN ARBOR: Lascompañías que se suman acausas sociales para vender

sus productos nosólo realzan suimagen sino quetambién mejoransus ganancias,s e g ú n

investigadores de laUniversidad de Michigan.

“La comercializaciónvinculada a causas, por la cuallas firmas donan una parte delas ganancias que obtienende la venta de ciertosproductos a una causaespecífica, es ahora unaestrategia que han adoptadocientos de firmas paraincrementar las ventas de unaamplia gama de productos,desde café hastaautomóviles”, dijo ArandaKrishna, profesora de lacátedra Winkelman deComercialización Minoristaen la Escuela Ross deAdministración de Empresasde la Universidad de Michi-gan. “Pero a menudo tambiénestá acompañada por unaumento de los precios”.

Unos pocos ejemplos bienconocidos de“comercialización con causa”incluyen el Proyecto Red, quecomprende a variascompañías como Gap,Motorola, Apple, Converse,Dell, Microsoft, AmericanExpress y otras en larecaudación de fondos para elFondo Global para lalucha contra el SIDA,la tuberculosis y lamalaria; las hojitas deanotaciones Post-ItSuper Sticky Note de3M impresas concintas rosadas en unacampaña parafinanciar lainvestigación y el tratamientodel cáncer, y las ventas de aguaembotellada de Snapple queayudan a la construcción deplazoletas de juegos para losniños en comunidades pobres.

En un nuevo estudio quese publicará en la revista Man-agement Science, Krishna yUday Rajan, profesorasociado de finanzas en Ross,encontraron que lacomercialización con causa

puede aumentar las ventas,pero también puede aumentarlos precios, del productorelacionado con la causacomo también las ventas deotros productos que venda lamisma empresa.

Una razón subyacentepara el incremento de preciosidentificada por Krishna yRajan es el beneficioadicional que losconsumidores obtienen porla compra de un productorelacionado con una causa.Los consumidores se sientenbien acerca de la firma quevende el producto, y sesienten bien acerca de símismos cuando compran talproducto. Además, losconsumidores puedensentirse bien adquiriendo unproducto diferente de lamisma empresa, aunque noesté relacionado con unacausa.

Es este efecto que seextiende a los otros productosde la compañía lo que puedehacer valiosa lacomercialización con causa,señalan los investigadores. Dehecho, aún si una firma nopuede incrementar el preciodel producto relacionado conuna causa lo suficiente comopara compensar por el dineroque dona, o si simplementevincula un producto de pocaventa con lacomercialización con causa,aún puede aumenta susganancias en la medida enque los consumidores sesientan bien adquiriendootros productos de la empresa.

Además las empresas quesuben los precios tanto de losproductos relacionados conuna causa como de los otrosproductos que no esténvinculados con una causa,pueden obtener gananciasmayores que si no participanen absoluto de lacomercialización con causa.Asimismo las empresas nuncacolocan todo su portafolio osu línea de productos en unacampaña por una causa so-cial.

“Las firmas pueden usar lacomercialización con causapara aumentar los precios ylas ganancias peo deben ser

conscientes de lo queimplica la colocaciónde diferentesproductos en lacomercialización concausa”, dijo Rajan.“Para que losf u n c i o n a r i o sencargados de lapolítica pública y los

consumidores que puedencreer que las firmas quecomercializan con una causason empresas que sepreocupan más y estáninteresadas genuinamente enayudar al prójimo, quizátambién sea importante queentiendan que lacomercialización con causapermite que las firmasincrementen sus precios y sulucro”.

WASHINGTON, D.C.,June 2, 2009 (AP): JudgeSonia Sotomayor coun-tered Republican chargesthat she would let her back-ground dictate her rulingsas U.S.-Americans signaleda favorable first impressionon Tuesday of PresidentBarack Obama’s first Su-preme Court nominee.

A new AssociatedPress-GfK poll suggestedthat U.S.-Americans havea more positive view of herthan they did of any offormer President GeorgeW. Bush’s nominees to thehighest U.S. court. Half therespondents supported herconfirmation.

As Sotomayor made herSenate debut with a seriesof private meetings withleading senators, Repub-licans said they would pre-fer holding hearings on hernomination in September,which could cloud thespeedy summertime con-firmation that Obamawants.

Sotomayor, who wouldbe the high court’s firstLatina justice and its thirdwoman, told senators shewould follow the law as ajudge without letting herlife experiences inappro-priately influence her de-cisions.

“Ultimately and com-pletely, a judge has to fol-low the law no matter whattheir upbringing has

been,” Democratic Sen.Patrick Leahy, the JudiciaryCommittee chairman,quoted the nominee as say-ing in their private session.

Republicans are ques-tioning how she would ap-ply the law, noting her re-mark in 2001 that she hopedher decisions as a “wiseLatina” would be better thanthose of a white male whohad not had the same experi-ences. Obama has said shemisspoke; some Republi-cans have called the com-ment racist.

Leahy, hoping to shep-herd a smooth and quick con-firmation for Sotomayor,asked her what she meant byher 2001 comment and saidthe judge told him: “Ofcourse one’s life experienceshapes who you are, but ... asa judge, you follow the law.”

Democrats praiseSotomayor’s life story as theNew York-born daughter ofPuerto Rican parents who wasreared in a housing projectand went on to Princeton andYale universities before as-cending to the highest legalechelons.

“We have the whole pack-age here,” said Reid.“America identifies with theunderdog, and you’ve beenan underdog many times inyour life, but always the topdog.”

In the new poll, half saidshe should be seated on thecourt while 22 percent op-

posed her confirmation.About a third had a favorableview of Sotomayor while 18percent viewed her unfavor-ably.

She was looked uponmore positively than any ofthree Supreme Court nomi-nees Bush put forward overfour months in 2005: ChiefJustice John Roberts, JusticeSamuel Alito, and HarrietMiers, who withdrew fromconsideration.

Roberts, the most popularof the three in polling at thetime, was supported for con-firmation by 47 percent, and25 percent had a favorableimpression of him.

Democrats hope to beginthe sessions next month,which would meet Obama’sgoal of having her confirmedbefore the Senate leaves inearly August for a monthlongvacation.

Reid said while Demo-crats want to hold hearings“as quickly as we can,” theywould not seek to impose“arbitrary deadlines.”

He sidestepped questionsabout her past decisions, tell-ing reporters that he neverhas read any of the hundredsshe has written during her 17years as a federal judge. And,he added, “if I’m fortunatebefore we end this, I won’thave to read one of them.”

Democrats hold 59 votesin the Senate, more thanenough to win Sotomayor’sconfirmation, but short of the

60 it would take to advancethe nomination should Re-publicans try to block it.

Democratic Sen. DianneFeinstein asked Sotomayorabout abortion, a hot-but-ton issue on which she hasnot ruled, leaving interestgroups on both sides won-dering about her position.

Feinstein would not de-scribe Sotomayor’s re-sponse, saying she wouldrather the subject be dis-cussed in open confirma-tion hearings with the nomi-nee participating. Still,Feinstein hinted that shebelieved the judge woulduphold abortion rights, es-tablished in the 1973 Roe v.Wade Supreme Court deci-sion.

“She’s a woman who iswell-steeped in the law, andwell-steeped in precedent,and I believe that she has areal respect for precedent,”Feinstein said.

Associated Press writ-ers Ann Sanner, LaurieKellman and Ben Fellercontributed to this report.

Judge Sotomayor addresses bias suspicionsBy JULIE HIRSCHFELD DAVIS, Associated Press Writer

Judge Sonia Sotomayor

of Solar College Initiative,challenged Salazar to utilizeexisting urban structures, es-pecially college campuses, toharness solar power. Travis saidcolleges and universities candecrease their utility costs,engage students in renewableenergy education, and improvethe environment. His non-profit organization providesconsulting services to collegeslooking to become solar.

Oberlin College’s AdamJoseph Lewis Center for Envi-ronmental Studies, completed

Salazar: Visiting our parks is one way of bolstering an ailing economy(Continued from Page 3)

in 2006, is one of the first 100percent solar-power academicfacility.

Salazar said being energyindependence is critical to thenation’s security and the envi-ronment. “Global warming isno longer a debate, it is hap-pening,” he said.

Frances Beinecke, presidentof the Natural Resources De-fense Council (NRDC), said cli-mate change is disturbing theecological balance and open-ing doors to diseases, fungigrowth and increase in insectpopulations. Speaking at theCity Club on June 5, 2009 shesaid this should a huge concernfor Ohio’s $90 billion agricul-tural economy. She said thesigns are clear and immediateaction is required to reverse theenvironmental damage.

The Recovery Act also in-cludes $500 million for theBureau of Indian Affairs to

replace and upgrade Indianschools that will benefit the47,000 Indian children whoare educated in there. Salazarsaid Native Americans are of-ten the most overlooked andunderserved population andmajor steps must be taken toaddress substance abuse, de-teriorating reservations, the‘appalling’ statistics of rapeand assault, 50-60 percentunemployment, and restorethe rule of law.

Salazar is the second Latinomember of the Obama admin-istration. Prior to his confirma-tion, Salazar served asColorado’s 35th United StatesSenator, serving on the Fi-nance Committee, which over-sees the nation’s tax, trade,social security, and health caresystems. He also served on theAgriculture, Energy and Natu-ral Resources, Ethics, Veter-ans Affairs, and Aging Com-

mittees.As a U.S. Senator, Salazar

was a leader creating andimplementing a vision for arenewable energy economythat is less dependent on for-eign oil. He was involved inevery major bipartisan legis-lative effort on energy since2005, including helping craftthe Renewable Fuels, Con-sumer Protection, and EnergyEfficiency Act of 2007.

Salazar has been a cham-pion for farmers, ranchers, andrural communities, leading ef-forts to pass the 2007 FarmBill and to create food and fuelsecurity for the United States.

“Our best days as a countryare still ahead of us,” saidSalazar.
