Marcia De Barros, RN [A Personal Reflection]

by AlvarezGalloso @ 2008-02-28 - 22:07:24


I have decided to a revised version of the biography of one of the greatest nurses in the history of humanity called Marcia De Barros. Marcia de Barros is a Registered Nurse who currently works in the High Intensity Behavioural Health Department of the Behavioral Health Section of the Department of Veterans Affairs Hospital in Miami Florida. Marcia de Barros was born in Brazil and wanted to become a nurse since she was a little girl.

Marcia de Barros did her studies of Nursing in Miami Florida and started to work in Long Term Care of the Nursing Home in the Department of Veterans Affairs Hospital in Miami Florida. During her time as a Nurse for Long Term Care, she has been able to deal with the patient and their families within a multidisciplinary team of Physicians, Nurses, Social Workers, Recreational Therapists, and Physical Therapists in order to ameliorate the situation of the patient and their families. After all, our Veterans have fought in Wars to defend the United States of America and Marcia de Barros was a defender of the rights of Veterans and their Families to receive the optimal health care and treatment as an individual.

Marcia De Barros also worked in the Pediatric Psychiatric Department at Jackson Memorial Hospital in Miami Florida helping children who have been traumatized by physical and psychological abuse. Marcia de Barros made sure that the pediatric patients received dignity and compassion for the Patients.

Marcia de Barros in her current work has had to deal with patients from various wars including Iraq and Afghanistan who have suffered the traumas from these wars while Washington has decided that Hospitals can do better with more patients and less staff or at least with staff members who could have cared less about the patient. It has not been easy to deal with such patients. It is for this reason that Marcia de Barros deserved to be known as a Super Nurse within the circles of Helium.

Recently, Marcia de Barros married a Brazilian National who is a Professional in the Business World whose name is Marcelo Doliveira. On the 19th of February 2008, Marcelo and Marcia gave birth to a baby boy named Michael. After seeing the beautiful pair and seeing Michael, I have the feeling that Michael has the tradition of being a professional internally and externally.


 
 

Barrack Obama [A Personal Reflection]

by AlvarezGalloso @ 2008-02-28 - 22:06:20


Ever since the photo of Obama in a turban appeared in the Drudge Report, the people have been saying about the photo of the turban. I do not think that it would hurt Obama's chance at the Democratic Nomination. The publicity surrounding the photo of Obama is an act of Anti Americanism on the part of the US Elite of Republicans and Democrats. It has always been a part of history that the Republicans and Democrats use Anti American Tactics to smear each other and now national clothing are being used as a means. All of the Anti American Activities of the Republicans and Democrats have damaged the chances of both parties in the future. I myself am a Libertarian voting for George Phillies.

I am sick and tired of the Anti American Ranting of the US Elite called the Republicans and Democrats as well as the US Media inventing an Americanism that borders on ethnic hatred, class hatred, and hatred of all types. Regardless of whether a person belongs to an ethnic group, religion, state, or the clothes he or she wears should not interfere in the election or nomination process. The important thing is that the person is a good person willing to find the best solutions for his or her country. If the people who talk about a photo of Obama in a turban have nothing else to do, I have a suggestion for them. I have a suggestion for the people who are doing soap opera like reporting in stations such as NBC, CBS, FOX, CNN, and ABC instead of reporting on the serious business of who will be the next President of the United States of America, learn from NNN [Naked News Network].

I propose that the people who are always talking about whether one candidate used a turban or another candidate insulted another candidate should imitate the people of Naked News Network and do the news in the nude. My reason is that it is not the clothes that make a person. It is the internal character of the person that determines the worth of the individual. The US Elite should stop it game of turban and start to loosen up a little. I can assure you that the reporter in NBC, CBS, ABC, FOX, or even CNN that wears the suit and tie or the suit and dress would at an opportunity would either do the news in the nude or at least dress with a casual dress style. For those who do not understand irony, I am just saying that clothing does not make the person. It is the inside of the individual that counts.

Barack Obama is reaching a point in his life that in another era not so long ago would have been prohibited for any one who is African American or a Woman. In order to arrive at the point where Obama is, we must review briefly the history of the United States of America. There was a saying in the US Latin Community in which those who immigrated from Europe and Latin America would tell those born in the United States of America: "You can be President of the United States of America". The reality was that the Presidency was the domain of White Anglo Saxon Americans who call themselves Americans but in reality were expelled from England and other parts of Europe in the name of freedom or for being intolerant of other people's cultures [like the Puritans in England]. This same group of people who stole land from the indigenous population in a form of ethnic cleansing, enslaved Africans, created instability in other countries for the sake of cheap professional labour, and took some land from Mexico were the ones who wrote the rules and everyone else followed. The same applied for party affiliation. If a White Anglo Saxon American Male was a Republican and Democrat, he could become President. If a White Anglo Saxon American Male was a member of the Libertarian or Green Party member, there were no chances of becoming President because of the archaic election rules such as the Electoral College and the Primaries.

In the year 2008, the people of the United States of America were resigned to a monarchy with a Bush Clinton Dynasty. The people who even supported a Bush Clinton Dynasty had their own website. The year 2008 was going to be another boring year until the upsets by Barack Obama and the endorsements started coming at his direction. The Establishment responded in all of the vile ways possible and even using smear tactics. Everything now hinges on Ohio, Pennsylvania, Texas, and Rhode Island with Ohio and Texas being the biggest prize of them all. I would not be surprised of Obama won the last primaries and secured the Presidential Nomination for the Democratic Party.

The Debate in Ohio or the Debacle in Ohio showed a Hillary Clinton that was continuously interrupting Barrack Obama when he was trying to explain his economic and health care package including the Twenty One Billion Dollars for an Economic Recovery Package. It was obvious in the Presidential Debate of the Democratic Party which was held in Cleveland State University Campus and broadcasted by MSNBC and WKYC 3 News that Hillary Clinton was about ready to explode every time Obama talked. It appeared that the US Elite was willing to accept any President except Obama. Even if Obama does not win the Presidency, the fact that he went farther than anyone imagined is a testament to the will of a person and the desire of a group such as the African Americans to rise in spite of all obstacles.

I hope that we the Libertarians or even the US Latin Community could arrive at such an opportunity. For the detractors who say otherwise, if an African American could become President, why not a US Latin who is articulate in English and a member of a truly American Party called the Libertarian Party?

Algarve Cup 2008

by AlvarezGalloso @ 2008-02-28 - 22:04:30


On the Twentieth of February 2008, announcements were made for the beginning of the 2008 Algarve Cup. The Algarve Cup will be the Fifteenth Annual Cup held in The Algarve in Portugal for Women Football [or Women Soccer] and will serve as a trampoline by the United States Women's Soccer [Football] team for the preparations for the 2008 Summer Olympic Games to be held in Beijing, China as well as for the CONCACAF Women's Olympic Qualifiers to be held in Ciudad Juarez in Mexico in April 2008. The date for the Algarve Cup will be between the Fifth of March 2008 and end on the Twelfth of March 2008. The groups are already in place.

The countries that classified in Group A will be Germany, Sweden, Denmark, and Finland. The Group B Countries are the United States of America, China, Norway, and Italy. The last group which is Group C is Portugal, Iceland, Ireland, and Poland. The chances of the United States Women Soccer [Football] Team in winning the Algarve Cup lies in defeating its Group B opponents including China in its first game on the fifth of March 2008.

I would like to comment that the United States Women's Soccer [Football] Team was the Algarve Cup Champions three times in a row between the years 2003 to 2005 and won again in 2007 thanks in part to their tireless efforts under the guidance and goals of Kristine Lilley and Carli Lloyd. While the United States Women's Soccer [Football] Team has been successful in 2007 with some exceptions in the latter part of the year, I am confident that the United States Women's Soccer [Football] Team can move to bigger and better things in the world of Women's Soccer and Football under the leadership of Pia Sundhage.

The majority of the players have been in the Algarve Cup such as Hope Solo, Christie Rampone, Carli Lloyd, Lauren Cheney, and Amy Rodriguez. It is these players and the rest of the team who have shown to be have the stamina and the will to win and show the world that there are great soccer [football] players in North America who are truly the successors of Mia Hamm [who by herself was the greatest female football [soccer] player of her time. I would also like to declare that Hope Solo is one of the best goalkeepers in North American Female Football [Soccer] for reasons I will write later. Since I am talking about Algarve, I will say that Hope Solo is the person to watch.

Hope Solo: The Greatest Goalkeeper in America

by AlvarezGalloso @ 2008-02-28 - 22:03:39


One of the best goalkeepers in the world is Hope Solo of the United States Women's Soccer Team. Hope Solo was born Hope Amelia Solo on the thirtieth of July in the year 1981 in Richland, Washington. Hope Solo started her career in high school and college before playing with the United States Women's Football [Soccer] Team. During her high school and college years with the Richland High School Bombers and the University of Washington Huskies, she scored one hundred and nine goals, was a four time All-PAC Selection and a Three Time NSCAA All American. Hope Solo was also named the Parade All American. It was during this period that she switched to goalkeeping.

Hope Solo made her debut with the United States Women's Soccer [Football] Team in the year 2000 with her first shutout against Mexico and first appearance against Iceland. In the year 2005, Hope Solo was the staring goalkeeper in three of the four games played by the United States in the Algarve Cup and earned shutouts in all of the four games. In the United States [2005], Hope Solo was able to start nine games and earn seven shutouts. In the year 2006, Hope Solo had a record of One Thousand and Fifty Four Minutes without allowing a goal which was demolished by a goal conceded to France in the Algarve Cup. The sorry state of having to concede a goal was starting three of four games and earning two shutouts in the Algarve Cup in 2006 was also not the best time for Hope Solo. Regardless, Hope Solo was able to play in the Four Nations Tournament in China by starting three matches and earning three shutouts in the same year.

The year 2007 saw the participation of Hope Solo in the FIFA Women's World Cup in which she was able to start ten games, earn five shutouts while going to the finals. Regardless, Hope Solo was able to prove that she was the greatest goalkeeper by being able to remain calm, cool, and collected under pressure. Hope Solo was also a goalkeeper for the Philadelphia Charge, Kopparsberg Goteberg FC, and Olympique Lyonnais during her career as a goalkeeper.

Her best role as a goalkeeper was off the field as she was able to forgive her father for divorcing her mother when she was six years old. It takes a lot of courage to do this and it took a lot of courage to be close to her father in spite of his drinking and being homeless until his death in 2007. It also took a lot of courage to continue playing in spite of such losses. It is for this reason that I consider Hope Solo the best goalkeeper in the world.
