...this time of year, the city's cultural season is in full force. Renzo Piano's new complex, Parco della Musica, houses the Orchestra di Santa Cecilia as well as the city's most important musical events in three separate halls. In December the Rome Opera House will have Lo Schiaccianoci, otherwise known as The Nutcracker. After years of being closed for a contentious restoration, the Ara Pacis, the Emperor Augustus' monument to peace, dedicated in 9 B.C., is finally open (Piazza Augusto Imperatore). It is to be the centerpiece of a new museum that is being designed...

Mario Molina, jefe de Molina Healthcare, ofrece un nuevo modelo: emplear m?dicos biling?es, proveer folletos en diferentes lenguas (incluyendo chino y camboyano para servir a la poblaci?n asi?tica de California), y mantener una l?nea de ayuda operada por enfermeros las 24 horas, en espa?ol. Establecida en 1980 como un peque?o grupo de cl?nicas...
...evaluar el poder del arzobispo de San Antonio, Jos? G?mez, su ex jefe, el arzobispo de Denver, Charles Chaput, dice de manera entusiasta, "A ?l lo escuchan en el estado de Texas y en la Conferencia de Obispos de Estados Unidos. Lo escuchan en Roma. Y creo que el gobierno federal lo escuchar? cuando traten asuntos relacionados con las leyes de inmigraci?n?. El a?o pasado, G?mez fungi? como obispo auxiliar, trabajando para Chaput en Denver. Pero en diciembre, el papa Juan Pablo II coloc? al modesto cl?rigo de 53 a?os por encima de cientos de obispos para ser el centro...
