...Court nominee Samuel Alito nearly slid into Thanksgiving week unnoticed. Hearings, set for Jan. 7, will now draw increased Democratic scrutiny-and possibly a confirmation-halting filibuster-after the discovery of a 20-year-old Reagan White House job application documenting his specific political opinions. Colorado Democratic Senator Ken Salazar said Alito's objection to a constitutionally recognized right to abortion could force Democrats to block him. Sen. Joseph Biden (D-Del.) lambasted Alito's position on a landmark 1962 Supreme Court case that made states judicially accountable for drawing accurate voting districts...
...Mart?nez es m?s que el primer senador cubanoamericano de los Estados Unidos. Por ser uno de s?lo dos hispanos en el senado de EE.UU.

...taboo corners, edges and surfaces of the original artwork have been made fully visible in some cases. "Castor and Pollux," a poetic single page by an artist known as "C.F." appears on a piece of torn-out spiral notepaper, complete with the rough fringe on the left edge. Souther Salazar's "Fervler 'n Razzle," features the antics of a pair of doodles on whatever surface the artist seems to have around. One strip puts them on a drinking straw wrapper. Reproducing these works as-is makes them seem almost sculptural, adding a thrilling third dimension to the traditionally flat comix...
