Global Hit and geo answer

The World

For today’s Geo Quiz, we wanted to know where you’d find the Ocean of Storms. The answer is the Moon. Apollo 12 landed there November 19th, 1969 – 39 years ago today.

For today’s Global Hit, The World’s Marco Werman introduces us to Eugene Rodriguez and his band, Los Cenzontles. The Bay Area group is about a lot more than fusing Mexican and American music…in fact it’s a front band for a community arts center created to help Mexican-American immigrant kids stay out of trouble.
