1 WEEKEND EDITION AÑO XXV NÚMERO de marzo de 2014 UTSA brings first open compute lab to North America By Natalie Bobadilla natalie@laprensasa.com San Antonio is about to get tech savvy. With support from the Open Compute Project Foundation, the University of Texas at San Antonio is now home to the only Open Compute and Solution Certification Laboratory in North America. The same way the food industry always has inspections, the lab serves as a neutral third party that tests the quality of hardware developed by different companies. If the system meets the standards of performance, security and stability, the lab gives the hardware a seal of approval; the seal essentially guarantees the server will work in production. Currently there are only two Open Compute and Solution Certification Laboratories in the world, the first is at the Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI) in Taiwan and the other is at UTSA. ITRI is a nonprofit so they have a different angle on it, for us its exposure with education and research, the education component is really the unique piece, Associate Director of Applied The Marijuana Policy Project aims to remove criminal penalties for marijuana use and emphasizes on making marijuana medically available to seriously ill people who have approval of their doctors. According to the latest University of Texas and Texas Tribune Poll conducted in February, 77 percent of registered voters in Texas support the legalization of marijuana for medical use and 49 percent support legalization of marijuana for recreational purposes. In an effort to educate the community on the positive and negative side effects entangled with the legalization of marijuana, News See Legalization on page 6-A Associate Director of Applied Research in Cloud Computing at UTSA, Carlos Cardenas inspects hardware.

Con orgullo y mucho entusiasmo, el alcalde de la ciudad, Julián Castro, le rindió su informe anual a los residentes de la ciudad. El alcalde recalcó los logros de la ciudad en el 2013 y animó al público sobre los próximos proyectos en la ciudad de El Álamo. Nuestro índice de graduación está aumentando, nuestras tasas de desempleo están bajando, nuestro mercado de bienes y raíces está aumentando y las tasas de jóvenes embarazadas están disminuyendo, nuestros índices de ingresos están subiendo y la tasa de obesidad está Town hall to explore legalization By La Prensa Staff Some are for it, others are against it, regardless, it s about to snatch the spotlight. The same group who helped with the recent legalization of marijuana in Colorado and Washington is making its way to the Lone Star State.

They re really focused on what they re wanting to do. bajando, afirmó el alcalde durante su presentación. De cada esquina de nuestra nación, igual que del mundo, la gente se está fijando en San Antonio en una manera que no lo habían visto en mucho tiempo, destacó. El alcalde atribuyó el éxito de la ciudad al trabajo duro de los habitantes de San Antonio y a una gran visión para el futuro. El trabajo duro se cumple todos los días en la vida cotidiana de la gente de San Antonio, por los empleados y las empresas, por compañías pequeñas y compañías grandes, por organizaciones sin fines de lucro y por el sector privado, expresó. La visión por una ciudad mejor fue forjada en el 2010 cuando Research in Cloud Computing, Carlos Cardenas told La Prensa. With more than 2,700 companies present, the lab was launched at the annual Open Cloud Project Summit in San Jose, California. Being the first lab in North America and being announced in San Jose among all these companies that build hardware, that excitement leads to a lot of companies that are contacting us to certify or validate systems that they are designing down the road, Director of UTSA Laboratory and Vice President of Research at Rackspace Paul Rad told La Prensa. See UTSA on page 7-A Por Ana Cristina González acgonzalez@laprensasa.com San Antonio cuenta ya con un nuevo proyecto para el beneficio de los inmigrantes. Este es Cisneros Center for New Americans, una iniciativa sin fines de lucro que planea apoyar al país con programas y operaciones que midan los avances económicos, educativos y sociales en la comunidad latina y los inmigrantes que buscan el sueño americano. Siempre hemos estado abiertos a la inmigración, y ahora lo que tenemos que preguntarnos cómo es que vamos a integrar a la población de inmigrantes para que obtengan una mejor educación y gocen de mejores recursos, señaló el fundador del centro, Henry Cisneros. Henry Cisneros fue secretario de desarrollo de vivienda durante la administración del expresidente Bill Clinton, además es exalcalde de San Antonio. Él, al lado de su esposa, Mary Alice Cisneros, ha apoyado la educación en los hispanos previamente con su centro American Sunrise, ubicado en el 2007 de la calle W. Commerce. Al evento de lanzamiento del nuevo Cisneros Center for New Americans, realizado el pasado jueves 27 de febrero, asistieron líderes locales, incluyendo a Mary Alice Cisneros, exconcejal del Distrito 1 en San Antonio; Cecilia Elizondo Herrera, directora general y presidenta del nuevo centro; Antonio Villarraigosa, exalcalde de Los Ángeles, José H. Villarreal, presidente del consejo del nuevo centro, entre otros. Existen algunos problemas de gran importancia como lo es la integración de los nuevos americanos para el futuro de nuestra nación y Henry Cisneros es la persona correcta para guiar este esfuerzo, expresó Villarreal durante la inauguración.

The Jayson Blair scandal caused people to question their trust and the legitimacy of institutionalized journalism. Ten years, later the consequences of Blair s actions remain relevant. A new PBS documentary, A Fragile Trust, examines today s news landscape and interviews key players of the Jayson Blair working for The San Antonio- Express News, at the time Blair plagiarized one of her stories. The film, which began premiering in late 2013, will premiere on PBS nationally in May 2014, with the possibility of a special premiere screening held in San Antonio. Hernandez, who serves as the Victoria Advocate Endowed Professor in Humanities for the University of Houston, interned and worked with Blair at the New York Times in The general public thinks that the press is very sinister and that we make up stuff, and it is amazing how prevalent that distrust of A Fragile Trust, a documentary on Jayson Blair s impact on the world of journalism, will air on PBS in May The film is scandal, including journalist the press is.

2 2-A LA PRENSA DE SAN ANTONIO 2 de marzo de 2014 Comentarios... COMMENTARY... EDITORIALs It s just about over, at least for the next eight months La salida en Venezuela Por Jorge Ramos Ávalos Quién puede apoyar a un régimen que mata estudiantes, encarcela opositores, arma a grupos paramilitares y luego, para esconder la pedrada, censura a la televisión y los medios de comunicación? Esta es la pregunta en Venezuela. Cuando los venezolanos hablan de una salida se refieren, fundamentalmente, a dos cosas. Una, cómo salir de la peor inflación del continente (más del 60 por ciento), de la constante devaluación de su moneda, de una escasez generada por una burocracia inútil y de una de las más altas cifras de criminalidad en el mundo (más de 24 mil asesinatos en el 2013). Y dos, cómo deshacerse del gobierno autoritario y represivo de Nicolás Maduro. Esto último es lo más difícil. Ningún demócrata puede apoyar un golpe de estado ni la violencia. En casi todo el mundo lo condenarían. Y el mandato de Maduro es hasta el 2019, aunque haya ganado con trampa las elecciones. La oposición venezolana lo sabe y no quiere cometer el mismo error del golpe militar del 2002 contra Hugo Chávez. Clarifying the Voter ID matter before Election Day On Tuesday, Texans going to the polls will, for the second time, be required to present photo identification before being permitted to vote. In 2011, the Legislature, much to my disappointment, passed Texas Voter ID law. I strongly opposed this law, because there is substantial evidence that for many Texans, obtaining such an ID would pose a substantial hardship. Thousands of registered voters might be blocked from voting, and yet there is no evidence that the new law would actually prevent any voter fraud. Despite the opposition to this law by me, all of my fellow Senate Democrats, and the Mexican American Legislative Caucus, the law passed and took effect. Because it will be new to many voters, and is confusing and intimidating, I want to make sure everyone knows what they ll need to take to the polling center. These are the forms of photo ID that can be accepted by poll workers you must provide one By Vance Ginn, Ph.D. A growing number of Americans are calling the Lone Star State home. Atlas Van Lines study 2013 Migration Patterns provides last year s interstate and crossborder household goods relocations, noting that these large moves across the U.S. increased by 6 percent compared with Depending on the job market, cost of living, and other factors, migration between states can tell us much about the economic condition and underlying policies that enhance economic prosperity. Atlas shows Texas 13,503 total moves were second to only California s 14,505 moves. However, Texas is an inbound state with 58 percent total inbound moves and California is a balanced state with 53 percent inbound moves. Although these shipment statuses have been the same since 2005, these data do not account entirely for the extraordinary flood of people moving Un golpe es un golpe es un golpe. Maduro que no es Chávez, aunque copie su forma de hablar, sus gritos, sus insultos y hasta lo ve en forma de pajarito planteó el dilema legal de la siguiente manera: Si la oposición quiere salir de mí, que junten las firmas para el plebiscito revocatorio del El excandidato presidencial, Henrique Capriles, de alguna manera, aceptó las reglas del juego impuestas por los chavistas. Nuestro foco es que los problemas del país se resuelvan, dijo en CNN en Español. Esto no es un Maduro, vete ya. Él no cree que los sectores populares apoyen una salida de Maduro. Pero los líderes opositores, Leopoldo López y la asambleísta María Corina Machado, sí quieren que Maduro se vaya. Ya. Tenemos que construir una salida a este desastre, dijo López minutos antes que lo arrestaran soldados de Maduro, acusado absurdamente de incitar a la violencia durante las protestas del 12 de febrero. López y Machado nunca estuvieron de acuerdo con Capriles cuando él suspendió una marcha tres días después de la elección of the following: Texas driver license issued by the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) Texas Election Identification Certificate issued by DPS Texas personal identification card issued by DPS Texas concealed handgun license issued by DPS United States military identification card containing the person s photograph United States citizenship certificate containing the person s photograph United States passport With the exception of the U.S. citizenship certificate, the identification must be current or have expired no more than 60 days before being presented at the polling place. This photo ID requirement is for voters casting a ballot in person, not by mail. Voters age 65 and older may vote by mail. Voters may use IDs that do not exactly match the name on their IDs if the names are substantially State Sen. Leticia Van de Putte Gone to Texas to Texas. Accounting for California s larger population, 60 percent more in 2004 and 45 percent more in 2013, a comparison of each state s shipments adjusted for population differences is possible. These adjustments show that in 2013 California s 5,336 adjusted inbound shipments were far below the 7,856 inbound shipments to Texas. There is a similar trend of proportionally more people moving to Texas than to California since at least Atlas provides valuable information about state-to-state moves, but it only includes a small portion of total moves because these are large item shipments. To get a better picture, consider the U.S. Census American Community Survey (ACS) data for state-to-state migration flow in 2012 the latest survey available. That year 62,000 people moved to Texas from California and 43,000 moved in the opposite direction, giving net migration of 19,000 people moving to Texas. en abril del Capriles tenía información fidedigna de que en esa marcha habría muertos. Pero López y Machado creían que había que defender su triunfo electoral y ganar la calle. Ganó la prudencia, y ganó Maduro. Hasta que el pasado 12 de febrero Maduro cometió un gravísimo error, que le puede costar el puesto: le ordenó (o al menos, le permitió) a la guardia nacional bolivariana, a la policía y a grupos paramilitares que dispararan contra una manifestación pacífica de estudiantes. Tres personas murieron ese día y unas 60 resultaron heridas. A pesar de la censura oficial de los medios, a través de Twitter se han difundido cientos de videos donde se ve a uniformados disparando a jóvenes y estudiantes desarmados en protestas posteriores. Maduro controla todo, pero no al pajarito azul símbolo de Twitter. No puede ser presidente alguien que mata a sus jóvenes, que reprime violentamente manifestaciones, que arma y financia grupos fuera de la ley, y que censura y calla a los medios de comunicación. No puede ser presidente alguien que viola los One factor that drives people out of California is the high cost of living. When moving between states, most use a rental truck. The price of a rental truck varies based on the market for the vehicle and the moving location, making a rental truck a good market measure of state-to-state migration. Consider a 26 U-Haul truck from Austin, Texas to San Francisco, California. This move costs $931 from Texas to California but $2,860 in the other direction. This 3-fold difference is another indication that it is more expensive in California and there is more demand to move to Texas since it costs U-Haul to ship empty trucks back to California to get them positioned for the next move. Another important moving factor is whether there are jobs available. Few other states have had a better employment record over the last decade than Texas. Compared with California, Texas has had a higher annual job growth rate and higher percentage of the population who are employed every year over the last decade. derechos humanos y asesina a quienes debería proteger. Maduro ha entrado al club de Pinochet y los hermanos Castro. Y América Latina se ha portado muy mal con Venezuela. Casi todos sus líderes mantienen un silencio cómplice. Un triste ejemplo: el presidente de México, Enrique Peña Nieto, que llamó líder moral a Fidel Castro en Cuba, no se atrevió a condenar, como lo hizo el presidente Barack Obama, los violentos abusos de Maduro durante la pasada reunión cumbre trilateral en Toluca. Peña Nieto se quedó calladito. Lo que esto quiere decir es que los venezolanos, sin ayuda del exterior, tendrán que buscar una salida para Venezuela. El cambio viene de dentro. Lo viejo y podrido está muriendo pero lo nuevo no acaba de nacer. Y si sirve de consuelo, basta que sepan en Venezuela que no están tan solos como creen. Están a un click de distancia.

Voters may look up their registration at votetexas.gov and if their name is not an exact match they can update their voter registration online at votetexas.gov. (Election officials are encouraging voters to update their voter registrations to reflect the names on their IDs.) To check and update their registrations, voters can visit VoteTexas.gov. Bexar County voters may visit elections.bexar. org or call VOTE. For more information about photo ID requirements including exemptions, visit gov. Information on how to obtain an election identification certificate if you do not have another form can be found at texas.gov or by contacting the Department of Public Safety ( ), which is making them available for free. Something that s very important: If an election official does not accept your ID or otherwise challenges your eligibility to vote, cast a ballot anyway! In such a circumstance, you may request a provisional ballot. Make your choices on this provisional ballot and cast it but to have the provisional ballot counted, you must visit your county voter registrar s office within six calendar days of the date of the election and present one of the forms of ID. Some people may obtain exemptions from the law, such as those with certain disabilities, religious objections, or who have lost their ID due to a natural disaster. But please, cast a vote no matter what. So many of our heroes in uniform fought, made sacrifices, and even died so that you may do so. State Senator Leticia Van de Putte represents District 26 in San Antonio and currently is a candidate for Lieutenant Governor. These data show the obvious: many people continue to call Texas home to benefit from a lower cost of living and more job opportunities. How does Texas lead in so many categories? Since both states have similar demographics, similar natural resources, and similar diversified economies, one area stands out above the rest: Texas limited government philosophy. By sticking to conservative fiscal principles and focusing on allowing free markets to thrive to allow for entrepreneurs to innovate and prosper, prices remain low, unemployed find jobs, and people use their feet to move to reap these benefits. Given these results, the Texas model that encourages entrepreneurship and free enterprise should be the framework other states and Washington, D.C. follow.

La Prensa, raíces en la cultura de San Antonio If you voted early, that s good. If you re going to vote Tuesday there s a warning you must heed before you cast your ballot. Those who voted Republican in the 10-day Early Voting period already know this and it s a sure thing that they were caught off guard. Now for those heading to the polls on Tuesday and planning to vote in the Republican Primary we ll try to spare you a shock. God is not on the ballot! You ask what? You will not find God on your primary ballot. You re probably wondering why this statement was made. If you look at a majority of the candidates on the GOP ballot, just about each and every one has invoked God in their campaign. They would extoll their reasons why you should vote for them and somewhere in between those many why and wherefores you ll hear about Christian Values. These values are aimed at stirring deep feelings. Of course, whoever comes out the winner in their respective campaigns, this will more than likely be last time you ll hear Christians Values used to sell the candidates. It s not that they ve stopped being Christian it s just that the message was well received and now they re gearing up for the November General Election and is a different sort of voter. In the primary they had to appeal to their select base of support. That s not to say other candidates on the ballot aren t Christians. They just won t use God as a front. Come November, they ll have to appeal to a wider demographic who are Christians as are the candidates. The voter that they re trying to reach Está a punto de terminar, por lo menos por los próximos ocho meses Si votó por adelantado, es bueno. Si va a votar, el martes hay una advertencia a la que debe poner atención antes de ir. Quienes votaron por los republicanos en los 10 días del periodo de votación por adelantado ya saben esto y es obvio que los tomaron desprevenidos. Ahora, para quienes irán a las urnas el martes y planean votar en las primarias republicanas vamos a tratar de ahorrarle un shock. Dios no está en la boleta! Se preguntará: Qué, qué? No van a encontrar a Dios en la boleta de las primarias. Probablemente se preguntarán por qué se hace esta afirmación. Si observa a la mayoría de los candidatos en la boleta GOP, casi todos y cada uno de ellos han invocado a Dios en sus campañas. Ellos van a realzar sus razones de por qué ustedes deben votar por ellos y por ahí entre ellos los por qué y las razones que escuchará acerca de los valores cristianos. Estos valores están dirigidos a provocar profundos sentimientos. Desde luego, cualquiera que sea el ganador en sus respectivas campañas, esta será probablemente la última vez que escuche que se usen los valores cristianos para vender a los candidatos. No es que hayan dejado de ser cristianos es solo que el mensaje fue bien recibido y ahora se están preparando para las elecciones generales de noviembre y es una clase diferente de votante. En las primarias tenían que atraer a su selecta base de apoyo. No estamos diciendo que los otros candidatos en la boleta no sean cristianos. Solo no usan a Dios como un frente. En noviembre, tendrán que atraer a una demografía más amplia que son cristianos como los candidatos. El votante al que están tratando de llegar es más joven y está más informado que los votantes de esa base conservadora. Está en los números. Los votantes de las elecciones primarias y las generales varían y TINO DURAN Publisher/CEO TINO DURAN JR Director of Operations NINA DURAN Editor-in-Chief ADDA MONTALVO Spanish Copy Editor MARCO A. LOPEZ Production Manager DENNIS AYOTTE JR. Managing Editor JOE SANDOVAL Assignments Editor is younger and more informed than that Conservative base. It s in the numbers. Primary and general election voters vary and Republicans will have to appeal to more than just their core supporters. Taking it to another level, the argument of religion is now in the beliefs. A new law in Arizona, Refusal of Service, will allow businesses to turn away anyone who is Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual or Transgender (LGBT). The businesses wanting to do this are using the constitutional argument based on religious beliefs. Which along with, the 1st and 2nd Amendments have become today s National Security blanket buzz phrase of the 60s and 70s. It should not be misunderstood that we recognize anyone s or any groups religious beliefs and there are instances where any of the three aforementioned crutches may be successfully defended. However, the Arizona measure is questionable at best. Religious beliefs are why America had to deal with White and Color Only signage for decades. White Southern Protestant ministers preached religious beliefs in defending segregation. After all, they would paraphrase Deuteronomy 7:3-4 to suit their support of segregation. The Old Testament law commanded the Israelites not to engage in interracial marriage. No if, ands or buts about the wording. Unfortunately the prejudice in the South didn t just dwell on African Americans it also included those of the Catholic and Jewish faith. Kind of nullifies the Deuteronomy scripture. It s good to have God in one s everyday life, but He shouldn t be used as a tool for promotion. los republicanos tendrán que atraer a más que solo a sus principales partidarios. Llevándolo a otro nivel, el argumento de la religión ahora está en las creencias. Una nueva ley de Arizona, derecho a negar servicio, permitirá a los negocios rechazar a cualquier persona que sea lesbiana, homosexual, bisexual o transgénero (LGBT, por sus siglas en inglés). Los negocios que deseen hacer esto están usando el argumento constitucional basado en las creencias religiosas, las cuales, junto con la Primera y Segunda Enmiendas, se han convertido en la frase de interés de la década de los 60 y 70 como una cubierta de Seguridad Nacional. No se debe malinterpretar que reconocemos las creencias religiosas de cualquier persona o grupo religioso y hay casos donde cualquiera de los tres puntos antes mencionados pueden ser defendidos con éxito. Sin embargo, la medida de Arizona es cuestionable en el mejor de los casos. Las creencias religiosas son la razón por la que América tuvo que lidiar por décadas con los letreros de solo blanco y de color. Ministros protestantes blancos del sur predicaban creencias religiosas al defender la segregación. Después de todo, ellos parafraseaban el versículo de Deuteronomio 7:3-4 para que fuera bien con su apoyo a la segregación. La ley del Antiguo Testamento ordenaba que los israelitas no se involucraran en un matrimonio interracial. No hay ni si, y o peros en la redacción. Desafortunadamente, el prejuicio en el sur no solo residía en los afroamericanos, también incluía a quienes profesaban la fe católica y judía. Esto como que nulifica el pasaje de la Biblia de Deuteronomio. Es bueno tener a Dios en nuestra vida diaria, pero Él no se debe usar como una herramienta de promoción.

The road to the U.S. Supreme Court By Joe Sandoval The first step in getting samesex marriage approved in Texas has been taken. On Wednesday, U.S. District Judge Orlando Garcia ruled that the ban on same-sex marriage by the State of Texas is unconstitutional. Garcia said the amendment to the State Constitution, that Texas voters approved in 2005 defining marriage as between a man and a woman, denied gay couples the right to marry and demeaned their dignity for no legitimate reason. At the same time, however, the jurist stayed his ruling which means the ban remains in effect until a ruling from the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals is handed down. The ruling addressed two issues. One was the constitutionality of the state s law on same-sex marriage. That was struck down, but stayed his decision until a high court issues its ruling on the matter. The second said that Texas is not required to recognize gay marriages from other states. To date seven other states have ruled along the same lines as the ruling handed down by District Judge Garcia on Wednesday and those rulings have been upheld. In Utah after the ruling more than 1,000 same-sex couples married, however, Supreme Court Justice Sandra Sotomayor stayed the Utah ruling and until the high court rules those Utah marriages are in limbo. Presently there are eight cases involving same-sex marriage that are pending, and legal observers are of the opinion one of those cases will go before the Supreme Court possibly in the fall or early next year. Needless to say the yeas and nays on the ruling were divided along party lines. The man who will fight the ruling is Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott. In his statement Abbott said: This is an issue on which there are good, well-meaning people on both sides. And, as the lower court acknowledged today, it s an issue that will ultimately be resolved by a higher court. Texas will begin that process by appealing today s ruling to the Fifth Circuit. Because the judge has stayed his own decision, his ruling has no immediate practical effect. Instead, the ultimate decision about Texas law will be made by the Court of Appeals or the U.S. Supreme Court. The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled over and over again that States have the authority to define and regulate marriage. The Texas Constitution defines marriage as between one man and one woman. If the Fifth Circuit honors those precedents, then today s decision should be overturned and the Texas Constitution will be upheld. Countering him was San Antonio Rep. Mike Villarreal: Today s ruling represents another step forward in our march towards equal rights for all Texans. Our nation was founded on the principles of liberty and equality. No President, no governor, no election can revoke our human rights; nor can they create laws that treat citizens unequally. Judge Garcia s ruling affirms these ideals by voiding the State of Texas illegitimate act of banning civil unions and same-sex marriages. As this legal battle moves into the next phase, I commend Nicole Dimetman, Cleo DeLeon, Mark Phariss and Victor Holmes for bravely stepping forward to challenge this injustice and strengthen our state for all Texas families. Dimetman, DeLeon, Phariss and Holmes are the couples wanting to marry in Texas. Gov. Rick Perry issued the following statement: Texans spoke loud and clear by overwhelmingly voting to define marriage as a union between a man and a woman in our Constitution, and it is not the role of the federal government to overturn the will of our citizens. The 10th Amendment guarantees Texas voters the freedom to make these decisions, and this is yet another attempt to achieve via the courts what couldn t be achieved at the ballot box. We will continue to fight for the rights of Texans to selfdetermine the laws of our state. On the opposite side of the political aisle, Texas Democratic Party Chairman Gilberto Hinojosa chimed in: The Texas Democratic Party believes that everyone should have the right to be with the person they love and we look forward to the day in Texas when everyone can marry who they love. This is a historic day for the LGBT community and the state of Texas. As Dr. King once stated, The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice. Today, all Texans can celebrate that we are one step closer to justice and equality for all. Response came in from the federal level from Congressman Joaquin Castro honorary co-chair of the group Southerners for the Freedom to Marry. Today is a triumphant day for equality in Texas. The federal court in San Antonio reaffirmed what we ve believed all along, that in the United States of America equality and freedom are not dependent on the color of your skin, the origin of your last name, or the person you love. I welcome today s affirmation of our nation s fundamental values and I look forward to seeing Texas, as well as more states across our country, continue to make progress. Abbott filed an appeal with the 5th Circuit Court challenging the ruling.

4 4-A LA PRENSA DE SAN ANTONIO 2 de marzo de 2014 Pregúntale a Andrés Andrés, queremos comprar casa pero no tengo crédito. Uno de mis primos tiene muy buen crédito y está aprobado hasta $300,000. Yo tengo algún dinero ahorrado como enganche crees que sea buena idea que compremos una casa juntos? Manuel Wescovina, CA Manuel: Ay, amigo! Cómo puedo decirte esto de forma muy clara? Mira, el comprar una casa entre dos familias sería una mala idea. Imagínate el llegar a tu casa y no poder tener la privacidad que debe tener porque la cuñada o el cuñado y los sobrinos están ahí. Vivir temporalmente con otra familia, a fin de reducir gastos, mientras nos estabilizamos, para luego comprar por cuenta propia, tiene sentido y puede formar parte del gran cuadro de un buen plan financiero. Si es necesario vivir juntos por un rato, renten; pero no comprometan sus finanzas con alguien más. Muchas familias deciden vivir juntos pero no debe ser para siempre. Si deciden vivir juntos y rentar, tengan un plan definido para un tiempo determinado. Va a ser muy difícil para todos pero véanlo como un sacrificio para tener casa propia más adelante. Lo que me preocupa es que tu plan suena como una decisión permanente. Si tu intención es comprar una casa y vivir en ella por muchos años con el propósito de comprarla algún día y ponerla a tu nombre, si ese es tu plan, no lo hagas. Además, es muy peligroso para ustedes porque, ante los ojos del banco, esta casa no le pertenece a nadie más que a tu primo porque es quien firmó por el préstamo. Si ya lograste ahorrar lo suficiente para un enganche, que no es tan poca cosa, por qué no esperas unos meses y procuras calificar para tu propio préstamo. Eso sí es un buen plan! Pero ser codeudor es una carga que muy pocas relaciones pueden soportar. Eso cambia por completo la relación entre ustedes, ya no es lo mismo cuando se juntan a comer o cuando las esposas conversan. Porque ya no son primos, sino amo y esclavo. Comprar casa con alguien más es como jugar con fuego, no le entres porque te vas a quemar.

Centro Cisneros... (viene de la página 1-A) La institución planea desarrollar sus operaciones por medio del desarrollo de la economía, la educación y el ámbito social. Asimismo, tendrá como capital principal a un grupo de jóvenes profesionales y líderes establecidos para expandir las estrategias del centro a la comunidad. Los líderes servirán como representantes comunitarios que se encargarán de identificar las necesidades de los inmigrantes. Asimismo, el esfuerzo de la organización será apoyado por By Andrés Gutiérrez campañas públicas locales y nacionales que crearán conciencia entre la comunidad para otorgar el apoyo necesario a los inmigrantes, a las minorías y al público americano en general. Uno de los programas con que se dará inicio al centro es el ADI o American Dream Initiative (Iniciativa del Sueño Americano), la cual propone acelerar la integración de los nuevos americanos al país. La iniciativa tiene como propósito aliarse con comunidades que cuenten con experiencia en países con demografía amplia y que no cuenten con la infraestructura necesaria para el desarrollo de los inmigrantes. Muchos trabajadores que tienen sus empleos en las granjas o trabajan como mecánicos o que sus empleos se encuentran en zonas poco civilizadas no cuentan con la infraestructura necesaria para desarrollarse y para obtener educación, comentó Henry Cisneros. Es por esto que buscamos programas de apoyo que nos ayuden con el desarrollo. Dentro de las metas del ADI se encuentra mejorar el acceso a recursos y servicios que necesiten los inmigrantes, incluyendo el camino al Sueño Americano ; inculcar la urgencia de educar a las familias inmigrantes por medio de logros académicos y desarrollar una cohorte local y nacional de líderes que guíen a los inmigrantes y que sirvan de defensores de dicha comunidad. Tenemos que integrar a la comunidad de inmigrantes y para eso también necesitamos líderes preparados que guíen a los nuevos americanos a este país, explicó Cisneros. De acuerdo al fundador, el centro es un establecimiento que servirá como desarrollo para crear un mapa que guíe a los inmigrantes mientras se esfuerzan para integrarse por completo a la sociedad americana. Serviremos como una voz para la comunidad, concluyó. Puede obtener más información del Cisneros Center for New Americans en Just a Thought: Remembering Black History Month This past Friday completed the celebration of February s Black History Month. Looking back through the cultural history of the contributions of African Americans to our country, it is safe to assume at some level we have come a long way. It is also assumed we still have to complete the journey of truly becoming a melting pot of all cultures and, races. History reminds us of the 1954 Brown v Board of Education landmark Supreme Court decision that declared state laws establishing separate public school for black and white students unconstitutional. In most places at that time it included Hispanic students as well. I was eight years old at the time. As a former teacher who taught a History class or two over the years, I covered some of those statistics and information in the classroom. The triumph paved the way for integration and was a major victory of the civil rights movement at the time. As one who has seen major changes in my life time from segregation to the turmoil of the sixties to the eventual national Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Holiday that was signed into law in 1983, I am still amazed at our progress. I remember when President Ronald Reagan actually signed it, and it was first observed three years later. I would point out that at first some states resisted observing the holiday as such, giving it alternative names or combining it with other holidays. It was officially observed in all 50 states for the first time in Back in 1964, the year I graduated high school in June, the Congress passed the Civil rights Act of 1964 on July 2nd that outlawed discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex or national origin. It ended unequal application of voter registration requirements and racial segregation in schools, at the workplace and by facilities that served the general public known as public accommodations. That same day President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the law at the White House. In fact I still remember watching the President live on our small Black and White TV, doing so. The year before the President signed that legislation, I also watched the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. I have a Dream speech on live TV, in the summer of 1963, August 28th. Who could forget the assassination of Black Activist Malcolm X in 1965 in Harlem, N.Y., or Dr. King s assassination in Memphis Tennessee, April 4th, 1968? I was in my sophomore year in college By Steve Walker in Fort Worth when Malcolm X was shot and my senior year when Dr. King was shot. The summer after I graduated college, just before I joined the Army, I took a Black History class at Southern Methodist University in Dallas to learn about the contributions of African Americans over the years. I was shocked to discover what some of them contributed to our country over the years. I had heard of many of their contributions but no one pointed out that they were Black Americans! Did you as the reader know for example, that it was Charles R. Drew, a African Americans surgeon who pioneered techniques for preserving blood plasma that saved countless lives during World War II? Later he became medical director of Freedmen s Hospital in Washington. In his research he discovered that pure plasma could be used for blood transfusions. Who knew? I didn t until I took that class so many years ago. Black History Month reminds us that people of every color or race are still a part of the American dream to be all that we can be and add to the fabric of this country. And as always, what I write is Just a Thought. Steve Walker is a Vietnam Veteran and former Justice of the Peace and journalist. Sam s Club creates 350 jobs By Amanda Lozano amanda@laprensasa.com On Thursday, Sam s Club opened two new San Antonio locations simultaneously, on polar opposite sides of town. It is the first time the company has ever launched two new warehouses in the same city on the same day. Three-hundred fifty job opportunities were created for residents all over the city. Currently, there are over 1,000 Sam s Club employees in San Antonio. Not even a week old, the warehouse has already provided plenty of help for the community. Several local nonprofits have already benefited including Brooks Academy, Highland Park Elementary and Lighthouse for the Blind after receiving grants from Sam s in celebration of the grand opening. The San Antonio Food Bank was presented with a $50,000 grant from Walmart Foundation s State Giving Program. Sam s Club is such a fantastic partner. The $50,000 donation boy, that will go a long way, Eric Cooper, CEO for the San Antonio Food Bank said. But it s not just the financial support. Sam s Club opens their doors for food donations all the time, and we are truly grateful to them. Sam s Club has a great future in San Antonio. The San Antonio Hispanic Chamber of Commerce commemorated the event with a formal ribbon cutting ceremony. We are excited to provide for the community, Eloisa Herrera, Brooks City Base Sam s Club manager said. They re going to see a friendly shopping environment. We had a lot of items in the Club that are geared towards the community. As Club Manager, Herrera has the authority to select items to stock on shelves that will benefit and fly well with the community. A lot of local brands, such as Pear Beer, Rico s, County Boys and Kiolbassa Sausage adorn the shelves. Other culturally significant products include Mexican candies and beer, barbacoa and Big Red.

Documentary... (continued journalistic integrity, like Jayson is not the norm, Hernandez said. A Fragile Trust director, Samantha Grant, who interviewed all the key players of the Blair case, including Hernandez and Blair, made a similar discovery about journalism. Although the democratization of the media is great, the institutionalization of media like the New York Times is important, now more than ever before. Even if the institutions are not perfect they are critical to this society, Grant said. What I tried to do with the film is show that Jayson Blair is truly an anomaly, and that it s very unlikely that anything like this would happen at this scale ever again, Grant added. Blair was a prolific writer during his career at the New York Times, but his stories began to unravel when Hernandez and several other reporters discovered similar details from her story on the mother of a soldier in Iraq, in a story by Blair, who never visited the South Texas family as he claimed in his story. In an era that revolves around the 24-hour news cycle, accuracy is often sacrificed for the sake of being first to report the news. Despite the inaccuracies, individual responsibility remains essential to modern journalism. Even in the day of Edward Snowden and Wikileaks, where one person s impact can have a huge impact on the news landscape, we still need journalists to report and interpret the data and explore it, Grant said. Plagiarism charges began to mount against Blair in 2003, who eventually admitted he had fabricated a large number of his stories. The New York Times immediately fired him, and dismissed two other editors at the paper. Blair s actions caused immediate and long-term changes in the newsroom. Although Blair cited health and personal issues as the reason behind the plagiarism, many media outlets focused on his status as minority reporter, and blamed affirmative action for his quick rise to power. As a result, minority journalists have struggled to move ahead and past Blair s misdeeds in newsrooms. It was unfortunate that the media made the story about his race, because this was a troubled guy. We still struggle to have diverse newsrooms, and the event first made me consider leaving the newsroom, Hernandez said. Although Hernandez left the 11-B newsroom in 2008, she has continued to write stories on political and border issues for newspapers, in addition to her role as an educator. from page 1-A) I feel very blessed to have a platform to voice my opinions as a reporter, while being able to educate a new generation about the ethics and responsibility of being a journalist today, Hernandez said. Long-term consequences were that the public s faith in the media was even more deeply shaken. Jayson gave the public another icon to hold up, albeit incorrectly, of everything wrong with journalism. Jayson Blair is not an example of everything wrong with journalism. He s an individual and this was an individual case, Grant said. La Prensa contacted Blair to comment on the documentary through and Twitter. His only response came via Twitter and stated, haven t seen it.

6 6-A LA PRENSA DE SAN ANTONIO 2 de marzo de 2014 Coronan a Sophia Campos como Miss Fiesta 2014 Por Roberto J. Pérez rperez@laprensasa.com En un cerrado concurso de personalidad y talento entre cuatro distinguidas finalistas, Sophia Campos, estudiante de Texas State University, fue coronada Miss Fiesta 2014 el jueves en la noche en el centro de Performing Arts de Palo Alto College. La ceremonia de coronación congregó a la extensa familia de Fiesta Commission Charitable Corporation, entidad que organiza Fiesta San Antonio 2014, con más de 100 eventos para todos los gustos a celebrarse del 10 al 27 de abril próximo. Previamente a la coronación, se llevó a cabo la elección de Miss Fiesta con las finalistas Corrine LePere, Katherine Salazar, Kristian Thompson y Sophia Campos. Todas ellas, previamente a la etapa final del concurso, habían participado en una preselección. Ante los jueces en la etapa final del concurso en Palo Alto, las distinguidas estudiantes fueron entrevistadas individualmente por Arantxa Loizaga, conductora de programas en Univisión Canal 41, quien les hizo preguntas sobre qué planes de trabajo pondrían en efecto a beneficio de la comunidad en caso de ser elegidas como Miss Fiesta. Un panel de jueces estuvo pen diente de las respuestas y, al término de la sesión, dieron a conocer su veredicto que tuvo como resultado la elección de Sophia Campos. Fungieron como jueces: Rhonda Calvert (Comerica Bank), Joe Da Rosa (Toyota Manufacturing), Nina Durán (La Prensa), Katie Reynolds (Silver Eagle) y Ed White (BB&T). Victoria Flores, Miss Fiesta 2013, cumplió en el año de su reinado, un exitoso programa de ayuda a la comunidad en el campo de la educación y la salud, graduándose al mismo tiempo de enfermera titulada. Jimmy Green, Rey Feo, King Antonio Donald E. Miller Jr. y Sophia Campos, Miss Fiesta (Foto, Roberto J. Pérez) Insight: when does a protestor become a rebel? The Texas Declaration of Independence was adopted on March 2, 1836 and its anniversary this weekend celebrates many things. It commemorates an act of political protest, an act of heroism in the view of many, an act of defiance against the autocracy of Gen. Antonio López de Santa Anna, an act of criminality under any formalistic definition of the word treason, and even an act of rebellion. The line between protest and rebellion can be blurry. Indeed, there are notable instances of political protests taking on the characteristics of true rebellions, albeit smaller in scale and more modest than the Texas Revolution. Events in Venezuela, Ukraine, and Thailand are only the most recent examples of anti-government demonstrations or rallies reaching levels of violence and duration comparable to acts of sustained rebellion. These events are distinguishable from coups that involve a sudden and purposeful overthrow of government, whereas the objectives and accomplishments of these protestors have been more amorphous. These individuals have squatted in city squares, perturbed politicians, and even clashed with cops. Unsurprisingly, in doing so, some have also violated the law. Just as one man s hero is another man s traitor, one man s protestor is another man s criminal. Indeed, the legality of some of these protests varies, and the actions taken by certain protestor-rebels are clearly illegal. Throwing firecrackers and Molotov cocktails at Venezuelan police, erecting makeshift barricades of scrap metal and assorted materials in Kiev s Independence Square (known as Maidan ), and blocking major intersections in Bangkok would certainly seem to violate parts of an applicable penal code. Nonetheless, legality is not always the sole measure of justification. If it were, then the adoption of the Texas Declaration of Independence at a convention held in Washington-on-the-Brazos (later renamed Austin, Texas) would not be a holiday. Similarly, the Alamo City commemorates the 1836 defense of the compound surrounding a small church originally called Misión San Antonio de Valero. No matter one s perspective of the Battle of the Alamo, there can be no doubt that during that military engagement there were instances of heroism, defiance, and death, on both sides. When officially founded in 1718, the small mission had not originally been intended for use as a fort, unlike the nearby Presidio San Antonio de Bejar (Bexar), although it had defensive purposes throughout its history, even before the Mexican War of Independence ( ) and later the Texas Revolution ( ). The defenders of the Alamo made do with what they had. So By Carlos Castañeda too have today s protestor-rebels in Venezuela, Ukraine, and beyond. In Venezuela, it is currently unclear whether the students and middle class individuals whose conduct now poses the most significant non-electoral challenge to President Nicolás Maduro s administration will result in concrete policy changes. Conversely, the shift in the political winds in Ukraine has caught many by surprise, especially the country s autocratic president. Though President Victor Yanukovich s Party of Regions still dominates the parliament of this Texas-size country of 46 million, last week he fled the capital to the eastern part of Ukraine where he has greater popular support. Parliament has since voted to impeach him, release his biggest political rival and former prime minister (Yulia Tymoshenko) from a seven year prison sentence that many see as unjust or at least the result of a politicallymotivated prosecution in , and moved up presidential elections to late May from December (already rescheduled from March 2015). All this has happened in the last two weeks of February. Wow. Accomplishing this was not easy, nor peaceful. It involved the use of force. Yet, it represents hope for a new beginning and a better tomorrow, which is ultimately the objective of nearly all protestor-rebels. Happy birthday Texas. Good luck Ukraine. Legalization... (continued from page 1-A) 4 WOAI organized a town hall meeting open to all San Antonians. The free event to be held March 6 from 6:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. at Texas A&M San Antonio Brooks City Base Campus will feature a panel of four experts on the topic. News 4 is not on one side or another, Mendoza said. We re bringing together a balanced panel of people who work in treatment and prevention of addiction, we re also bringing in people who work with mental patients who they feel require cannabis or marijuana for their treatment. Speaking in favor of legalization will be Co-Founder and Executive Director of the Marijuana Policy Project Rob Kampia, who was the primary supporter for the ballot initiative to make marijuana legal for adults in Colorado and Dr. Bud Holcomb, an Austin psychiatrist who deals with drug addiction. President of Eagle Peer Recovery Robert Ashford will be speaking in opposition as well as Assistant Dean for Research and Student Programs at UT Health Science Center in San Antonio Jennifer Sharpe Potter, who will soon begin clinical trials to work with people trying to conquer addiction to marijuana. Our hope and our purpose of the town hall is for the audience to ask the panelists questions to see what their thoughts are, Mendoza added. It is not News 4 asking questions. Aside from exploring the legal, medical, mental, preventative and treatment aspects to marijuana, the meeting will also explore the economic impact the legalization of the drug could bring to the state. The MPP says that it ll bring in a great amount of money to Texas while a gentleman who deals with rehabilitation and fighting addiction talks about having to get an infrastructure in place to deal with all he addiction that could be coming before we would ever legalize it, Mendoza added. So it should be an interesting conversation. News 4 WOAI organizes at least two town halls a year on important issues in community so San Antonians are able to be heard and ask questions. To attend the Town Hall meeting, register at com. The first half hour will be televised and the full hour and a half will be web streamed on their web page.

7 2 de marzo de 2014 LA PRENSA DE SAN ANTONIO 7-A Salvation Army and S.A. Food Bank provide healthier food for the needy By Amanda Lozano The Salvation Army is working hard to ensure that those most in need around the city get the help they require, while keeping health in mind. In cooperation with the San Antonio Food Bank, The Salvation Army on W. Elmira St. holds a food distribution program every first and third Friday of the month for San Antonio residents in need. We usually have enough food to feed about 100 families per distribution day, Brad Mayhar, spokesperson for Salvation Army said. If you average it out, that s about 400 people we feed, if you consider a four-person family. In just a two hour span, we think that s pretty good. A typical distribution day starts early in the morning and the Salvation Army bustles with activity. A long line of recipients forms and large 16-wheeler trucks from the Food Bank comes filled to the brim with food. Volunteers rush to get it organized and sorted out for distribution. There is a change in the types of food being distributed. Canned goods and nonperishables are present at a considerably less ratio than the amount of fresh fruits and vegetables. Bins of cabbages and tomatoes are among some of the foods given away. Because of technology, the production of surplus non-perishable foods is diminishing, and it is getting more difficult for the Food Bank to provide those types of foods, according to Eric Cooper, CEO of the San Antonio Food Bank. They are now turning to local farmers to help supply goods. The opportunities and surplus of foods lies in the local farms, Cooper said. In the future, we see ourselves leaning even more towards fresh foods. Opposed to things with a longer shelf life, perishable produce is better for health and wellness. We are also helping out locals, and promoting local food. For many recipients, this comes as good news. Longtime recipi- ent of the food program Annie Johnson often finds herself lacking fresh food in her regime. They only give me $18 of food stamps, and that s only enough to buy eggs, some bacon, a tiny bit of produce. It s hard, Johnson said. This helps out tremendously. I need more food like this. With the help of a volunteer, Johnson fills her tiny grocery cart with cabbages and tomatoes. It s a lot of fruit for such a small cart, but she manages to pack everything in. As she leaves Salvation Army, Johnson walks toward a VIA bus stop to her home, making sure not to drop any produce along the way. We have had a lot of success providing fruits and veggies. While it poses a challenge due to being perishable, people are responding to it really well, Cooper said. It s not that people don t want this type of food, it s that having such things with a short shelf life tends to not be cost effective, and many don t have access to it. In the near future, the Salvation Army and the Food Bank s distribution program hopes to provide even more fresh options to those in need of it the most. Food Bank volunteer helps fill up Annie Johnson s grocery cart at the Salvation Army s food. (Photo, Amanda Lozano) UTSA... (continued from page 1-A) Since the announcement, big name companies like Dell, HP, AMD and Intel have contacted the lab to get products they re building down the road certified. Everyone wants to make sure they re collaborating and visiting us, thinking about how to work with us to validate the product they are designing, Rad added. Even universities like Virginia Tech are contacting the lab to see how they can collaborate. We have a lot of momentum, a lot of companies are donating equipment, sponsoring research at the university and at the same time it lets companies collaborate with the university regarding the product they are developing and hopefully down the road they think the students we are training in the lab have the right skills to hire, Rad added. By having the latest state of the art equipment on campus, students are able to prepare for the work industry. Rather than being a generation or two behind, they re actually learning what is happening now, Cardenas said. He s hoping the lab will spur innovation, entrepreneurship and retention of brainpower in the Alamo city.

NBA 4-point line won t work Missions tickets sales begin By Rich Weimert By Jessica Duran jessica@laprensasa.com Rumors are spreading like wildfires in that the NBA is in talks of adding a possible 4-point line. This kind of a major change to the game can have some very negative effects. This could affect the duration of a game if a player gets fouled at the 4-point line and makes the shot, thus, setting him up for a potential five-point play in a single possession. The highest 3-point percentage this season,thus far, in the league is 48.2 percent from New Orleans Pelicans guard Anthony Morrow. Post players are starting to attempt shot from behind the arc but not many have been successful. Those who have are very few. Kevin Love and Chris Bosh are some of the post men who can actually make 3-point shots, but their game will hurt dramatically if this was to be put in place. When no man is open in the mid-range or 3-point line area, teams look for their big men to grind the defense and make a See NBA on page 3-B This Week In Tweets Chris The NBA has suspended DeMarcus Cousins one game and fined the him $20,000 for his blowup against Houston Gonzo If a pro soccer team comes to SA, I needs to have at least a commemorative bench outside of Toyota Field. #Hustler Scan with QR reader for more sports news from La Prensa. Oregon State receiver Brandin Cooks showed off an exceptional package of speed and skills at the NFL Combine. (Courtesy photo) Who made and who lost big bucks at the NFL Combine? By Joel Klatt FoxSports.com The NFL Scouting Combine is overrated in general. I know NFL teams like to put numbers to what they see on film, but too many times we see a 40 or a vertical trump what has already been proven on the field. More than anything, the Combine gives all of us a look into what type of work habits a player has off the field. However, that doesn t mean you can work yourself to a great 40 time or an explosive broad jump. I have seen and played with players who get beat on the stopwatch in shorts and a T-shirt, but have never gotten caught on the foot- ball field. There is a huge difference between track speed and functional football speed. That being said, every year momentum is created in a positive and negative direction for a few players leaving Indy. Here are my three players who did well for themselves, and three whose stock took a hit at the Combine. THREE UP 1. Aaron Donald, DT, Pittsburgh Donald was the best defensive player in the country last season, and he backed that up by dominating the Senior Bowl in Mobile and showing well at the Combine. He will pass the film test from even the harshest evaluator. Donald is fairly maxed out when it comes to his frame, and there are questions about his ceiling. However, he ran the most impressive 40 of the weekend. Yes, he was even more impressive than Jadeveon Clowney, who blazed to a 4.53 weighing in at 266 pounds. Donald ran 4.68 weighing 285 pounds and was explosive in every other drill while moving as good, or better, than anyone on the field. Donald is your King of the Combine. 2. Brandin Cooks, WR, Oregon State This class of wide receivers is as deep as any I can remember. Cooks has gotten overlooked in the last couple of months due to his size, but was able to create new momentum after performing well in Indy. Cooks ran the second-fastest 40 of the weekend at 4.33 (making him $100,000 richer thanks to adidas) and performed as well or better than any WR in the onfield drills. Many evaluators will go back to watch his film and be reminded of the quality of his routes and the excellent skills he possesses. 3. Greg Robinson, OT, Auburn At 330 pounds, Robinson is physically imposing, but often that does not translate into athleticism and explosiveness. However, he was both athletic and explosive in every drill in Indy, reminding teams of the insanely high ceiling he has con- See NFL Combine on page 3-B The San Antonio Missions are excited to announce that singlegame tickets for the 2014 season will go on sale Monday, March 3 at 10 a.m. Missions fans can order their tickets online at www. samissions.com and conveniently print them out at home.

Kawhi Leonard, un gran ejecutor ofensivo y defensivo El delantero titular de los Spurs, Kawhi Leonard, recuperado de lesión en su mano derecha, retornó con éxito a la duela en el partido que los Spurs derrotaron al visitante Pistons de Detroit. En el juego aportó 15 puntos. (Foto, Franco) Por José I. Franco franco@laprensasa.com El delantero titular Kawhi Leonard, egresado de la universidad San Diego State, en su tercer año jugando para los Spurs ha tenido altas y bajas. Ha sufrido lesiones que lo han puesto en la lista de jugadores en recuperación, pero es uno de los basquetbolistas que brillan con luz propia en la NBA. Esto se debe a su excelente talento en la defensiva y ofensiva, encestando tiros de larga y corta distancia, bloqueando al rival y asistiendo a sus compañeros sobre la duela. Kawhi también es comisionado honorario de la liga del baloncesto infantil de Spurs Youth Basketball League. Recientemente se recuperó, pero no del todo, de una fractura en el cuarto metacarpo de su mano derecha con la que efectúa sus disparos al aro, por lo que no pudo jugar en 14 partidos. Pero el miércoles 26 de febrero fue dado de alta por el entrenador en jefe Gregg Popovich para que se integrara a la rotación estelar contra el visitante equipo Pistons de Detroit. En este encuentro la cadena de supermercados H-E-B donó a los diez mil primeros aficionados que entraron al AT&T Center, con boleto pagado, una figurilla bobblehead de su persona, lo cual le motivó durante el primer periodo en el que abrió el marcador con canasta de dos puntos. A los cinco minutos de juego, Kawhi fabricó disparo triple para llegar a cinco puntos consecutivos. Su labor ejecutora continuó hasta el minuto 5:10 encestando dos puntos que le dieron un total de 7, lo cual, al concluir el primer cuarto, ayudó a los Spurs a sostenerse en 28 unidades por 26 de Pistons que con su entrenador interino John Loyer por el resto del partido estuvieron contra atacando y aprovechando errores. Pero esto fue suficiente ya que cayeron abatidos con pizarra de 120 a 110. Leonard finalizó su labor jugando 28:57 minutos, en los que hizo buenos 5 de 9 disparos al aro, con 1 de 2 triples, 4-4 en tiros libres, 6 rebotes, 4 asistencias, 2 bloqueos y 2 robos de balón, sumando 15 puntos encestados. Con su victoria, Spurs que puso su récord en 41 victorias por 16 derrotas se cobró la derrota que tuvo durante la gira del rodeo, ya que la noche que hizo Vea Kawhi Leonard en la pág 3-B

10 2-B La Prensa de San Antonio 2 de marzo de 2014 Deportes... Sports... High Sox le ganó el clásico a Dodgers Cazadores y Cubs van por desempate Por José I. Franco High Sox se ha destacado en cada partido jugado. Ganarle al campeón Dodgers es lo mejor que nos puede suceder en esta temporada que cuenta con grandes rivales en la zona sur. Seguiremos firmes hasta que obtengamos el boleto que nos de el pase al playoff, afirmó Rick Rodríguez, receptor y coach del club High Sox. Rodríguez comparte responsabilidades en High Sox con su hermano Eddy, quien es jugador y manager, así como con el experimentado coach Joe Pérez, quien se ha sumado al club colaborando con sus estrategias de juego que les han dejado buenos resultados. Entre estos resultados figura el ganarle el clásico dominical al actual monarca Dodgers de Paul Luna, al que de paso pararon en su racha triunfadora. Los lanzadores abridores fueron Joseph Loera por High Sox y Alex Mejía Jr. Jonathan Vaquera, lanzador derecho y campo corto de High Sox, en su turno al bate con dos corredores en base, en vano, intento tocar la pelota conectando, posteriormente, imparable al jardín derecho con el que produjo la cuarta carrera. (Fotos, Franco) Oscar Ibieta, egresado de Schreiner University (Kerrville, TX), retornó a la acción beisbolera con el campeón Dodgers, donde cubre la tercera base y es cuarto bate en la alineación titular. Por Dodgers, quienes por espacio de siete entradas buscaron guiar a la victoria a sus respectivos equipos, saliendo mejor librado Loera, quien tuvo el respaldo de sus compañeros que pisaron en cinco ocasiones la registradora. Dodgers se quedó corto en la pizarra anotando cuatro carreras y dejando varios corredores en las bases. El partido concluyó con pizarra favorable a los hermanos Rodríguez, que celebraron con el marcador de 5 a 4 a su favor. En otros resultados del circuito invernal Tex-Mex Independent Baseball League, en la zona sur, la escuadra del trabuco Alamo Kings bajo la dirección del padrino de temporada, Gonzalo Chalo Castro, apalearon 11 a 1 a los Astros. Tecolotes consumó su segunda victoria consecutiva derrotando 6-2 a los A s con picheo de Keith Vásquez. En la zona norte, la Tribu derrotó 6-5 a los Titanes. Diablos 1-0 a los Rough Riders y Desperados con paliza de 11 a 1 derrotó a las Águilas que no han logrado remontar el vuelo. Con dos fechas por jugarse, los mejores equipos comienzan a indicar que estarán presentes en los playoffs de cada zona que tendrán su propio campeón y que al final se enfrentarán entre sí para sacar al campeón de liga. Los partidos de playoff serán de bastante interés por lo que con anticipación invitamos a los aficionados para que acudan a ver cada serie, comentó el presidente Gilbert Rodríguez. Los partidos de este domingo 2 de marzo en la zona norte (Rosedale Park) se los estarán disputando los equipos Desperados y la Tribu. Águilas vs. The Bombers. Rough Riders contra Titanes. En el sur (Colt 45 Baseball Field) se jugarán tres clásicos entre los clubes Dodgers y Alamo Kings, High Sox vs. Broncos, Tecolotes contra Astros. La clasificación para la serie del playoff en el béisbol sabatino veteranos no logró definirse en la novena jornada entre los equipos Cubs y Cazadores, ya que ambos finalizaron empatados en el segundo lugar de la tabla de posiciones con marca de 4 partidos ganados por 5 derrotas. Por lo que el presidente Gonzalo Carramán tuvo que ceder a la petición del timonel y jugador Calixto Moreno de los Cazadores, quien solicitó un partido más ante Cubs del manager y recetor Roland Banda, quien de buena gana aceptó el reto. El partido por el desempate se programó para el horario de las 11:30 a.m. El equipo que resulte ganador se adjudicará el trofeo por el segundo lugar. Posteriormente a las 2:30 p.m. el invicto Alamo Kings disputará la primera ronda del playoff contra los Broncos de Roberto Garza. El partido Cubs y Cazadores definirá cuál se adjudica el derecho de llevarse el trofeo a casa y a la vez quien quedará en el tercer lugar, para así poderlos ver disputándose la primera vuelta del playoff que es una serie a ganar dos de tres partidos. Alamo Kings recibirá trofeo del primer lugar en ceremonia que presentaremos antes de que se lance la primera bola del encuentro contra Broncos. Suerte para todos los participantes y nuestro agradecimientos a los fanáticos y familias que han estado apoyando a sus equipos y jugadores, expresó Carramán. En resultado de la fecha final temporada invernal Jorge Melchor , Alamo Kings, con su lanzador abridor Derrick Davis, ganó 11-1 a los Cazadores con derrota para el estelar R. García y del relevista Calixto Moreno. Cubs, con pizarra de 11 a 3 carreras, derrotó a Broncos, con victoria en la lomita de los disparos para Clyde Davis y derrota para el derecho Luis Arredondo. El exlanzador profesional Luis Alfonso Velázquez Chorejas fue captado con su hijo Luis Alfonso Jr., quien juega todas las posiciones en el rey de los deportes.

First he returned to the Miami Heat lineup, sporting a black mask to protect his broken nose. "It went with the uniform," said James.

And it La Prensa de San Antonio 3-B came through at the last minute, so I went with it." He scored 31 points and hit 13-of-19 shots in a victory over the New York Knicks. And speaking of New York, James made a cameo on "The Tonight Show" with Jimmy Fallon which is taped in New York. No, he didn't strap on a cape and fly to the Big Apple, but he was part of pre-taped segment, a music video in which Fallon and James rap about wastepaper basketball and showcase their skills.

Kawhi Leonard...(viene de la página 1-B) su debut el entrenador en jefe Loyer (The Palace of Auburn Hills) fueron derrotados por Pistons con marcador de 109 a 100. Todavía resiento molestias en la mano derecha, por lo que no estuve al cien por ciento en mis disparos al aro. También llegué a fatigarme durante los minutos que se me dieron de juego, todo ello por el tiempo que estuve inactivo; sin embargo, seguiré entrenando duro para retornar a mi estado normal y recuperar mi ritmo de juego. Poco a poco me iré reajustando en la estrategia de juego que tenemos en el equipo, dijo Leonard. Por su parte, Tim Duncan, delantero titular, comentó: Kawhi es un gran defensor y excelente encestador, esperamos que pronto recupere su estilo de juego para que siga apoyándonos en cada partido que resta de la temporada regular. Asimismo, el entrenador en jefe Gregg Popovich tuvo alentador mensaje sobre delantero. Kawhi es un gran ejecutor defensivo y ofensivo. Con un mes convaleciendo, su retorno a la cancha fue fabuloso. Lo vi en buen ritmo de juego. Su actuación fue buena. Ejecutó consistente defensa. Hizo buenos varios disparos a la canasta. Me sorprendió verlo jugar como si nada le hubiese pasado. Con bastante tiempo inactivo él demostró su pasión por el equipo y la verdad que lo hizo en buena nota. Fuera del terreno de juego, el jueves 27 de febrero por la noche, Kawhi Leonard, en calidad de comisionado honorario del baloncesto infantil y acompañado por el asistente de entrenador Jim Boylen, asistieron a dar una clínica de basquetbol a docenas de pequeños basquetbolistas afiliados a la Spurs Youth Basketball League Kids Clinic. Los niños se dieron cita en el centro de esparcimiento Westside YMCA, ubicado en el 2900 Ruiz Street (corazón del sector oeste de San Antonio). Allí los deportistas respondieron a preguntas y brindaron una contundente sesión de baloncesto a los niños, enseñándoles los secretos del deporte denominado ráfaga. A Leonard se le vio contento por el desarrollo de habilidades de cada participante, a quienes conminó a seguir adelante en la práctica de este deporte para que así estén en buena condición física y los mantenga ocupados en su tiempo libre, y a la vez alejados de actividades negativas. NBA...(Continued from 1-B) shot in the lane. If there is a 4-point shot added, teams around the league will look to get ahead on the board by risking 4-point and 3-point shots. Guards and small forwards will be looked for to take more shots in a game than power forwards and centers. Another negative affect this can have is not for the players but for the coaches and the fans. The coaches will have to focus more on time management in close games as NFL coaches, due to a single 4-point shot turning a game not into a two possession game but a tricky three possession game. One 4-point bucket could end a team s shot to come back and win, which gets rid of the last second excitement fans love so much. Although this could lead the league and its fans in a new direction and change the face of the game, for now it just wouldn t work, the 4-point should just be left alone or left for video games.

These ambulances have a new paint job which looks great and really sets them apart, but more importantly they are equipped with several new safety features that will not only benefit the citizens of San Antonio, but also help ensure a round-trip ticket home for our paramedics, said Chief Hood. The medic units are Dodge 4500s that were converted to ambulances by Texas-based Frazer LTD. Each of the ambulances is bariatric capable including a reinforced floor. Prior to having these new units, the SAFD had to rely on private ambulance companies to transport severely obese patients. While San Antonio has made great advancements towards becoming a healthier city, we do still have citizens who are severely obese and the fact that all of these new ambulances are bariatric capable could truly be lifesaving, said Dr. Kidd. Instead of having to wait for a private ambulance company to respond, these new units are capable of being outfitted with specialty ramps and a winch system to be able to lift and transport bariatric patients without additional strain on our paramedics. Another important safety feature is that the captain s chair in the back of each of the new ambulances has an integrated infant carrier in order to safely transport babies. Other safety enhancements on the new units include new ground lighting which will make it easier for paramedics to see as they get in and out of the ambulance at night, and there is also a new roll-up door on the front inside/outside compartment in order to better secure equipment while the ambulance is moving. It is an ongoing process to keep up with all of the safety and regulatory changes each year for the department s vehicles, and the SAFD s Apparatus Committee meets quarterly to ensure that not only are the department s new units in line with the changing requirements but also that they are functional for the first responders doing their job. Our paramedics out in the field are the ones who provided a great deal of input about what improvements were needed and they really helped drive the change along with our personnel in our Technical Services Division, said Asst. Chief Granato. These new safety measures will not only help improve the quality of care for our citizens of San Antonio, but they will also help keep our paramedics safe and healthy. The 16 new ambulances are ready to go, and by early summer there will be an additional 22 new ambulances which means all of the SAFD s front-line units will be bariatric capable by that time and will include the new safety features. A paramedic s body goes through tremendous wear and tear throughout their career and anything that we can do to help protect our first responders is critical, added Dr. Kidd. These new ambulances are truly a winwin both for the citizens of San Antonio as well as our paramedics. 2 de marzo de 2014 Honroso retiro después de cuadro décadas de trabajo en Menger Hotel Por Roberto J. Pérez Después de un trabajo ininterrumpido por más de 40 años en el histórico Menger Hotel, dos damas recibieron un homenaje por su retiro. Este agradecimiento les fue brindado por parte de sus familiares, compañeros de trabajo y la empresa Historic Hotel of América, propietaria del hotel mencionado que tiene prestigio internacional gracias a la calidad del servicio de sus administradores y personal. Edith Balusek completa al momento de su retiro 47 años de trabajo y Rose Mary Reyes cierra 42 años de una labor ejemplar que ha sido reconocida por la administración del hotel y ha merecido en reconocimiento de sus compañeros. Su retiro fue motivo de una recepción el miércoles 26 de febrero en el Patio Room del Menger Hotel, localizado en la Plaza de El Álamo. La recepción fue presidida por Héctor R. Venegas, manager general del hotel, quien en concisas palabras elogió el desempeño de estas distinguidas damas que durante una larga carrera siempre mantuvieron una línea de servicio, eficiencia y cortesía para las persona más importantes los clientes del histórico Menger Hotel, aseguró el manager Venegas. Originaria de Alemania, Edith Balusek contrajo matrimonio con un soldado del ejército norteamericano y, prácticamente, desde su llegada a este país empezó a trabajar en el hotel de referencia en donde hasta el miércoles ocupó el puesto de supervisora encargada del servicio en todos los pisos del edificio. Por su parte, Rose Mary, quien proviene de una familia originaria de San Antonio, ha trabajado sirviendo el desayuno y almuerzo en el salón Colonial y en sus 42 años de trabajo ha servido, según estima la gerencia, a un millón de personas. Edith Balusek y Rose Mary Reyes recibieron el miércoles un homenaje por más de 40 años continuos de trabajo en el Historic Menger Hotel. La recepción fue presidida por Mr. Héctor R. Venegas, manager general del establecimiento. (Foto, R. J.

El grupo independiente de investigación social analizó las cifras de la Oficina del Censo y encontró que el condado de Los Ángeles, en California, con 4,761 millones de hispanos en una población de 9,88 millones, alberga a casi el 9 por ciento de todos los latinos del país. Pero ese condado es apenas el cuarto entre los que tienen la mayor proporción de hispanos en la población en general: en el Condado Miami-Dade (Florida) los hispanos son el 64,5 por ciento de la población; en Bexar (Texas) son el 58,9 por ciento y en San Bernardino (California) son el 49,9 por ciento. Desde 2000, la población hispana de EE.UU. ha crecido casi un 50 por ciento, anotó Pew, y ese incremento representa más de la mitad de todo el aumento de población en el país en ese periodo. En gran medida, el crecimiento ocurre en áreas geográficas relativamente pequeñas y los diez condados con más población hispana fue donde ocurrió el 22 por ciento del crecimiento de la población hispana de EE.UU. La mitad de esos condados se encuentra en California. El crecimiento más explosivo de la población hispana en un condado entre 2000 y 2011 ocurrió en Stewart (Georgia), donde ese grupo creció un por ciento, seguido por el condado Telfair, en ese mismo estado, con un crecimiento del 849 por ciento. Los mexicanos siguen siendo el mayor grupo dentro de los hispanos, aunque con variantes regionales. Si bien los hispanos de origen mexicano son la mayoría de los latinos en 39 estados, los puertorriqueños son el grupo mayor en Nueva York y Nueva Jersey, y los cubanos lo son en Florida. Los hispanos de origen mexicano tienden a ser los más jóvenes entre los catorce grupos de latinos más numerosos, con una edad promedio de 25 años, comparada con la de 40 años para los mexicanos. Los venezolanos son los más propensos a tener un diploma universitario (el 51 por ciento), en contraste con el 7 por ciento de los guatemaltecos y salvadoreños.

This will ensure minimal impact to the marine and wildlife species during this temporary water level reduction within the San Antonio River. The utility work being performed by SAWS is in coordination with the City of San Antonio s S. Alamo Street and Drainage Im- provements project on S. Alamo St. from Probandt St. to Pereida St. City infrastructure upgrades will alleviate drainage issues, improve roadway conditions, and enhance pedestrian access to the area. Utility improvements for this project are being completed by SAWS, AT&T and CPS Energy. The overall $6.1 million project is scheduled for completion in August A mile stretch of the San Antonio River water level from W. Nueva St. to S. Alamo St. has been temporarily lowered by 3.5 feet. This has been done to accommodate San Antonio Water System (SAWS) water and sewer infrastructure upgrades currently being installed near the Blue Star art complex on S. Alamo St. The infrastructure being upgraded in the area, including sewer lines constructed of brick, dates back to The temporary lowering of the river is scheduled to continue for 30 days. Dropping the river level temporarily is a precautionary measure to relieve pressure on underground bridge pier and flood gate supports surrounding SAWS contractor s replacement work on pipes running 50 feet below the river. Pipe replacement under the river should be completed within 30 days allowing the river level to return to normal. SAWS and the City of San Antonio are coordinating with the San Antonio River Authority San Antonio River level lowered by 3.5 feet.

13 2 de marzo de 2014 La Prensa de San Antonio Asociación lícita Por Hermano Pablo Koh Bak Kin, de treinta años de edad, era un rico comerciante de Singapur. Se dedicaba a la comercialización de madera fina para muebles, un negocio honrado a todas luces. Gozaba de prestigio social y de solvencia económica. Bin Fazalda, de treinta y cuatro años, era profesor de escuela secundaria en Singapur. Gozaba de buen nombre en su colegio, donde se le reconocían sus dotes profesionales. Ganaba buen salario. Estaba casado y comprometieron a ser fieles al contrato y los dos se estrecharon la mano como prueba de su asentimiento. Pero el negocio era delictivo, y la asociación, ilícita. Así pasa también en el ámbito moral de nuestra vida. La jovencita que a espaldas de sus padres planea una fiesta con sus amigos, y en esa fiesta se bebe licor, se usa droga y se practica la inmoralidad sexual, está realizando una asociación ilícita. El caballero que a espaldas de su esposa planea una salida al teatro, o un paseo en auto en la noche con su secretaria, y esto con fines inconfesables, está realizando una asociación ilícita. El mal no consiste solo en que un hecho sea o no ilegal sino en sus consecuencias destructivas. Cómo necesitamos poner todos nuestros negocios, toda nuestra vida, bajo el control de las leyes morales de Dios! Solo así salvamos nuestra vida. Solo así nos aseguramos el parabién divino. Solo así podemos vivir en paz. era padre de cinco hijos. Su vida transcurría tranquilamente en medio de satisfacciones. Un día, estos dos hombres se unieron para realizar un negocio. Se trataba de transportar veinte kilogramos de heroína a Roma. Adaptaron a sus maletas un doble fondo, solicitaron visa de turismo, sacaron pasaje de avión y partieron para la capital de Italia. Sin embargo, en el aeropuerto internacional Leonardo da Vinci de Roma los esperaba la INTERPOL. Una denuncia anónima los había delatado. Koh Bak Kin y Bin Fazalda fueron descubiertos, detenidos, requisados y encarcelados. Asociación ilícita fue el cargo del que los acusaron. Qué es una asociación ilícita? Es la sociedad que realizan dos o más personas para hacer algo que está penado por las leyes. Estos dos hombres se asociaron para realizar un contrabando de heroína. Los dos pusieron capital. Los dos planearon el negocio.

Una de esas tradiciones ocurría cada año con motivo de la conmemoración del natalicio del prócer cubano José Martí. Aquella noche no habría de ser diferente. En presencia de sus compañeros del Partido Popular Democrático y de los demás miembros de la Cámara de Representantes de Puerto Rico, pronunció una vez más un enjundioso discurso sobre las virtudes de Martí. Al día siguiente, cuando ya se acercaban al final de otra larga sesión, uno de sus colegas pidió la palabra durante el llamado turno de la posteridad para pronunciar un discurso sobre asuntos agrícolas. Pero cuando alguien presentó una objeción, se siguió al pie de la letra el reglamento de la Asamblea y no se le permitió pronunciar su discurso. Ante la aparente injusticia, el ofendido diputado les recriminó a sus compañeros: A mí no me dejan hablar, pero anoche le permitieron al compañero Font Saldaña estar hablando como tres horas sobre un tal Martín. Según el relato de Antonio Quiñones Calderón: Las risas ahogaron el recinto. Si bien es cierto que es lamentable y hasta risible que alguien ignore la identidad de uno de los campeones de nuestra independencia física, debiera parecernos más lamentable aún que alguien ignore la identidad del único campeón de nuestra independencia espiritual. El que se convence de que no tiene la culpa de ciertos asuntos que ignora debe reconocer que la ignorancia no resuelve nada ni salva a nadie. Acaso el ignorar la función de las señales de tránsito lo salva a uno de sus consecuencias naturales? Sería absurdo alegar en un juzgado: Pero, Señor Juez, yo no sabía que el semáforo en rojo significa que hay que detener la marzo, de modo que no tengo la culpa de la muerte del chofer del vehículo con que choqué!. En el caso de nuestra independencia espiritual, lo que no podemos darnos el lujo de ignorar es que hay un solo prócer, Jesucristo, el Hijo de Dios. Él se alzó en armas espirituales contra el poder de nuestro enemigo común, Satanás, y lo venció con un arma y de un modo inusitado. Se armó de amor, desarmó con su muerte en la cruz a ese explotador de nuestras debilidades humanas, y lo derrotó de una vez por todas cuando venció a la muerte. Compró con su muerte y selló con su resurrección nuestra independencia del reino del Maligno. Por qué no comenzamos una nueva tradición? En vez de ignorar a Cristo al no hacerle caso o dar la impresión de que no sabemos que es nuestro prócer espiritual, conmemoremos no solo su nacimiento sino también su muerte y resurrección, con que consumó nuestra salvación. Pero no lo hagamos apenas con un discurso sobre sus virtudes sino con el concurso de una vida consagrada a su causa de libertad espiritual. Dame entendimiento para seguir tus preceptos, pues quiero meditar en tus maravillas Salmo 119:27 La Cuaresma es un tiempo en el que los católicos oran, realizan una penitencia y ayunan.

Amen You must pray this prayer 3 consecutive days without asking your wish. After the 3rd day, your wish will be granted no matter how difficult it may be. Promise to publish this dialogue as your favor has been granted. M.G.

20 2-C LA PRENSA DE SAN ANTONIO 2 de marzo de 2014 Crece popularidad de Patty Mills Por José I. Franco franco@laprensasa.com Ante una concurrencia de más de 300 fans que desde a temprana hora se apostaron frente al popular restaurant Wing-Stop, ubicado en el 5410 Walzem Road, el guardia australiano Patty Mills tuvo la gentileza de cumplir con invitación de Wing-Stop (patrocinador de la franquicia Silver & Black) para que atendiera sesión de autógrafos en la que los pri- meros 200 aficionados recibieron pulsera alusivas (wristbands) que les acreditaba ser los que prácticamente recibirían saludos y autógrafos. Esto lo realizó a su retorno a San Antonio tras exitosa gira que le llevó a los Spurs recorrer nueve plazas y más de nueve mil millas. Carlos Manzanillo, representante de Spurs Sports & Entertainment (SS&E) y coordinador del evento, explicó que el resto de asistentes sin pulsera podrían entrar al lugar, siempre y cuando fans no entretuvieran al invitado especial. Mills, por su lado, fue asesorado por Analisa Rodríguez, SS&E Director of Player Services, y se dio a la tarea de autografiar lo más rápido que pudo, playeras, balones de basquetbol de todos tamaños y colores (para lo que utilizo marcadores de color negro y plateado), dándose tiempo para saludar de abrazo y apretón de manos a quienes se lo solicitaron, además de posar para fotografías para el recuerdo. Este jugador cuenta actualmente con promedio de juego de 21.6 puntos encestados por partido, en los que ha aprovechado el tiempo que se le ha dado sobre la duela cubriendo la vacante del guardia francés Tony Parker. Por sus logros, motivado, escuchó varias frases de buenos deseos por ser un jugador de carisma y dedicado a ejercer su trabajo tanto en la cancha como de voluntario en actividades comunitarias. Gracias Patty, eres un ejemplo en nuestra comunidad, has hecho un buen trabajo con los Spurs de gira, sigue adelante y soy de Portland, resido en San Antonio, qué bueno que anotaste bastantes puntos para ganarle a tu exequipo, los Trail Blazers fueron algunos de los emotivos mensajes que los fans mencionaron frente a su ídolo del momento. Por su lado Mills, modestamente, agradeció el apoyo de los fans para los Spurs, indicando que todos sus compañeros han sido parte de los buenos resultados del equipo. Me siento bien, no me cansé firmando más de 300 autógrafos. Mi mano derecha ya se está acostumbrando a sesiones de esta clase y a los encestes a favor de mi equipo. Para mi es satisfactorio ver tanta pasión de los fans por su equipo. No quitaré el dedo del renglón, continuaré preparándome cada día para así llegar en óptima condición a los playoffs, comentó Mills en exclusiva para La Prensa. Miembros del personal del restaurante Wing-Stop posaron felices con el guardia australiano Patty Mills. (Fotos Franco) Sovia Lauriano, sonriendo a la cámara, dijo ser fan de por vida de los Spurs. Los últimos fans también alcanzaron autógrafos. Gracy Vargas, fan emocionada frente a su ídolo. Aficionados llevaron de todo para lograr su autógrafo.
