A day of celebration for<br />

<strong>Texas</strong> A&M-<strong>San</strong> <strong>Antonio</strong><br />

By Kiko Trinidad-Colon<br />

In a special inauguration ceremony<br />

at the <strong>San</strong> <strong>Antonio</strong> College<br />

McAllister Auditorium<br />

Tuesday morning, Dr. Maria<br />

Hernandez Ferrier was officially<br />

appointed the first <strong>president</strong> of<br />

<strong>Texas</strong> A&M-<strong>San</strong> <strong>Antonio</strong> by the<br />

<strong>Texas</strong> A&M University System<br />

Board of Regents.<br />

Dr. Ferrier invited dozens<br />

of local women who, like her,<br />

earned a doctorate degree. The<br />

doctoral graduates marched solemnly<br />

down the aisle, and each<br />

took a seat onstage alongside<br />

Ferrier and the Board of Regents.<br />

She explained she invited the<br />

accomplished women to make<br />

a point.<br />

“I thought it was important for<br />

me to demonstrate the power of<br />

education,” said Ferrier. “It is<br />

the key that will open the doors<br />

of opportunity for our children.”<br />

It has been a long road for<br />

Ferrier, but well worth the hardship.<br />

“It hasn’t been easy, but it<br />

has been extremely rewarding,”<br />

she said.<br />

Ferrier served as interim <strong>president</strong><br />

of A&M-<strong>San</strong> <strong>Antonio</strong> since<br />

June 2009, and became the sole<br />

finalist for the position Jan. 21,<br />

after an extensive nationwide<br />

search. She was confirmed after<br />

a mandated waiting period, during<br />

which Ferrier met with local<br />

community, education and civic<br />

leaders.<br />

The <strong>new</strong> <strong>president</strong> began<br />

working with the university<br />

as executive director when the<br />

institution was operating as a<br />

system center of A&M-Kingsville.<br />

Under her leadership, the<br />

system center accomplished key<br />

objectives, including the approval<br />

of the master plan for the<br />

permanent campus, the passing<br />

of funding legislation and the<br />

growth of academic programs<br />

and enrollment. <strong>La</strong>st May, Senate<br />

Bill 629 established A&M<br />

<strong>San</strong> <strong>Antonio</strong> as a stand-alone<br />

institution.<br />

“The regents and I realized we<br />

already had the right person in<br />

place,” stated Morris E. Foster,<br />

chair of the Board of Regents.<br />

“Our unanimous decision shows<br />

the confidence we all have in her<br />

to continue to guide this <strong>new</strong><br />

university through these trying<br />

economic times. Dr. Ferrier’s<br />

dedication and experience have<br />

been and will continue to be the<br />

right combination to lead this<br />

university.”<br />

Dr. Ferrier... (Continued<br />

from page 3)<br />

The Honorable Regent Gene<br />

Stallings echoed that sentiment<br />

in his keynote speech at the inauguration<br />

Tuesday.<br />

“Everyone has a definition for<br />

leadership, but, I think it means<br />

getting someone to do something<br />

they don’t want to do, but that<br />

will benefit the entire organization.<br />

Dr. Ferrier embodies that<br />

ideal,” said Stallings.<br />

A native of <strong>San</strong> <strong>Antonio</strong>’s<br />

West Side, Ferrier returned to<br />

school to earn her undergraduate<br />

degree at 30, with the help<br />

and inspiration of her mentor<br />

and employer at the time, Carol<br />

Tuell.<br />

Ferrier earned minimum wage<br />

as a teacher’s aide while managing<br />

her personal life as the<br />

single parent of two children.<br />

With Tuell’s encouragement, she<br />

enrolled at <strong>San</strong> <strong>Antonio</strong> College<br />

and ultimately earned a Bachelor<br />

of Arts in speech and a Master<br />

of Education in guidance and<br />

counseling from Our <strong>La</strong>dy of<br />

the <strong>La</strong>ke.<br />

“I never viewed college as an<br />

option,” said Ferrier. “I grew up<br />

in a very loving home, however,<br />

we never spoke of attending<br />

college, and it just never really<br />

came up.”<br />

Education proved to be exhilarating<br />

and sustaining to Ferrier.<br />

She persisted and earned<br />

a doctorate in educational administration<br />

from <strong>Texas</strong> A&M<br />

University.<br />

Her hard work culminated<br />

in several appointments at the<br />

national level. In 2002, President<br />

George W. Bush named<br />

Ferrier director of the Office<br />

of English <strong>La</strong>nguage Acquisition,<br />

<strong>La</strong>nguage Enhancement<br />

and Academic Achievement<br />

for Limited English Proficient<br />

Students at the US <strong>De</strong>partment<br />

of Education. During her tenure<br />

at the <strong>De</strong>pt of Ed, she rose to<br />

deputy undersecretary and then<br />

to assistant deputy secretary,<br />

serving as the principal advisor<br />

to the Secretary of Education on<br />

all matters pertaining to students<br />

of limited English proficiency<br />

and Hispanics in general.<br />

Ferrier serves on the Hispanic-<br />

Serving Institutions Advisory<br />

Council for Hispanic Association<br />

of Colleges and Universities<br />

(HACU), a group of college and<br />

university <strong>president</strong>s committed<br />

to furthering the interests of<br />

Hispanic serving institutions.<br />

She also serves on the Southwest<br />

Independent School District<br />

Foundation Board of Directors,<br />

<strong>La</strong>ckland Air Force Base Joint<br />

<strong>La</strong>nd Use Study (JLUS) Executive<br />

& Advisory Committee,<br />

KLRN-TV Public Broadcasting<br />

System Board of Directors,<br />

and The Greater <strong>San</strong> <strong>Antonio</strong><br />

Chamber of Commerce Board<br />

of Directors.<br />

Her reputation and dedication<br />

to education gets high marks<br />

from all those who work with<br />

her, including her <strong>new</strong> employers.<br />

“Dr. Ferrier is an accomplished<br />

and dynamic leader,<br />

committed to the students, faculty<br />

and staff of this university.<br />

As its first <strong>president</strong>, she will<br />

enhance the excellence in education<br />

and continue the growth of<br />

enrollment to achieve our goal<br />

of 25,000 students by 2025,”<br />

said Chancellor Michael D.<br />

McKinney.<br />

Ferrier’s vision includes<br />

working closely with city and<br />

regional leaders to ensure that<br />

A&M-<strong>San</strong> <strong>Antonio</strong> will be a<br />

premier institution, which is also<br />

accessible and inclusive, and<br />

boasts a top-rate faculty.<br />

“We will continue to encourage<br />

<strong>San</strong> <strong>Antonio</strong> students to take<br />

advantage of our local colleges<br />

and to develop academic programs<br />

that are innovative and<br />

relevant to today’s business,<br />

technology and educational<br />

needs,” said Ferrier.

Community gets to vote in VIA’s first-ever online video contest<br />

By Angela Covo<br />

angela.covo@gmail.com<br />

My Ride is VIA’s first-ever online<br />

video contest. The competition,<br />

which closed on Sept 23, is now<br />

in the judging phase, and everyone<br />

gets to vote once a day for his or her<br />

favorite video online.<br />

The whole point of the contest is to<br />

give riders the opportunity to convey<br />

a positive message about riding the<br />

bus in <strong>San</strong> <strong>Antonio</strong> -- in two minutes<br />

or less.<br />

Jefferson High School senior Noel<br />

Robles, 18, responded to the call.<br />

Noel studies filmmaking with Adam<br />

Rocha at the <strong>San</strong> <strong>Antonio</strong> Independent<br />

School District, and wants to<br />

build a career making documentaries.<br />

The young <strong>San</strong> <strong>Antonio</strong> native<br />

explains his belief that real life needs<br />

to be documented. “I like seeing my<br />

ideas play out on the screen instead<br />

of just in my head,” he added.<br />

Noel met Rocha, his filmmaking<br />

instructor, through a cousin, Benny<br />

Aguirre, and was instantly inspired<br />

by the craft. Rocha, director of the<br />

<strong>San</strong> <strong>Antonio</strong> Film Festival, has<br />

worked with hundreds of students at<br />

SAISD and at <strong>San</strong> <strong>Antonio</strong> College.<br />

Thrilled to have the chance to<br />

work with a professional like Rocha<br />

– Noel wasted no time and started<br />

filmmaking with him two years ago.<br />

“Seeing how everybody is able to<br />

create something from an idea is a<br />

big part of the reason I’m interested<br />

in filmmaking,” Robles said.<br />

Telling real stories is also an important<br />

aspect of filmmaking Robles<br />

wants to explore even more.<br />

“I made the VIA film because<br />

I saw the flyer and I like the idea<br />

of documentaries – real life versus<br />

made up scenes. It gave me a great<br />

opportunity to see if my work could<br />

have a positive impact on the community,”<br />

he explained.<br />

The winner of the contest will get<br />

his or her choice of an Apple Ipad<br />

or a $500 gift card, not to mention<br />

the exposure of making an awardwinning<br />

film.<br />

To make the film, Robles decided<br />

to tell the real life stories of three<br />

people who take separate routes<br />

on the VIA bus system and depend<br />

on those routes every day to get to<br />

school, work and home.<br />

The final name of the short film is<br />

“Which Route will you take?”<br />

Whatever happens, Robles plans<br />

to go to the film school at SAC and<br />

continue studying under Rocha.<br />

After completing the film program<br />

at SAC, he plans to consider several<br />

schools to finish his degree,<br />

including the University of Southern<br />

California.<br />

Melissa Mesquiti, Noel’s mother,<br />

is very excited for Noel.<br />

“I’m proud of my son, he’s a bright<br />

kid. He’s also a good role model for<br />

his brother and sister – their Dad<br />

passed away when Noel was just six<br />

years old,” she said.<br />

Mesquiti recently married and<br />

Noel loves his step-dad, but for a<br />

long time Mesquiti was a single<br />

Mom. She said without a doubt, Noel<br />

is a great role model for his brother,<br />

John, 13 and his sister, Yvonne, 14.<br />

“He’s [Noel] had it a little rough<br />

– and he sets a great example for his<br />

brother and his sister,” she said. To<br />

be without a father is very hard – to<br />

become a great man without that<br />

influence in his life says a lot. I<br />

couldn’t be more proud,” Mesquiti<br />

told <strong>La</strong> <strong>Prensa</strong>.<br />

Noel’s younger brother, John, is<br />

already excited about taking filmmaking<br />

classes at Jefferson.<br />

The judging period ends Oct. 6,<br />

and online viewers decide 50 percent<br />

of the video battle. To see Noel’s<br />

video and all the entries, visit viainfo.<br />

net/VideoContest/VideoList.aspx<br />

Remember, Noel needs your<br />

vote to win and get much needed<br />

exposure.<br />

Noel Robles sits in the film class at Jefferson High School. The senior<br />

hopes his film makes the cut. (Courtesy photo)

Café College ready to serve up higher education<br />

By Cristina Blackwell<br />

cblackwell@laprensasa.com<br />

Dignitaries and education leaders<br />

gathered to help launch Café College,<br />

a one-stop counseling service<br />

that offers strategies for prospect<br />

students to best manage choices,<br />

finances, knowledge and skills<br />

needed to pursue higher education<br />

goals.<br />

As part of Mayor Julián Castro’s<br />

effort to bring more education and<br />

work opportunities to <strong>San</strong> <strong>Antonio</strong>,<br />

the <strong>new</strong> center will help provide<br />

direction in navigating the college<br />

process, offering free guidance to<br />

locals preparing for and applying<br />

to the higher education institution<br />

of their choice.<br />

Trained staff will work with<br />

middle school through senior high<br />

school students, transfer students,<br />

parents, guardians and “stopouts”<br />

(college students who stop attending<br />

college before completing their<br />

course plan.)<br />

“So much of <strong>San</strong> <strong>Antonio</strong>’s<br />

future economic growth and prosperity<br />

depends upon the creation<br />

of a <strong>new</strong> generation of highly<br />

educated, highly skilled members<br />

of the workforce,” stated Mayor<br />

Castro. “Investing in an educational<br />

resource of this magnitude<br />

helps ensure that our students<br />

District 5 City Councilman<br />

David Medina, Jr. expressed his<br />

gratitude and support for the widerange<br />

of services the <strong>new</strong> venue<br />

will provide.<br />

“In order to improve the quality<br />

of life within our community, college<br />

education must be a priority,”<br />

he said. “I’m extremely supportive<br />

of Café College opening within the<br />

inner city to provide access to all<br />

students in District 5 for an opportunity<br />

to get a higher education.”<br />

Located at 131 El Paso St., the<br />

center will be just like a coffee<br />

shop--hot drinks, a lounge area and<br />

Wi-Fi-- but it will also include a<br />

menu of services to help prospect<br />

students get the information and<br />

support they need to go to college.<br />

“We wanted this <strong>new</strong> college<br />

resource center to be a place where<br />

students would be comfortable,”<br />

said Judy McCormick, executive<br />

director of the <strong>San</strong> <strong>Antonio</strong> Education<br />

Partnership. “We feel the name<br />

reflects that setting.”<br />

One-on-one advising will be<br />

available, including assistance in<br />

applying for admission, giving<br />

information on specific colleges<br />

and universities and career counseling.<br />

Workshops will be scheduled<br />

how students don’t know where<br />

to begin,” said Virginia Hutto,<br />

Café College coordinator. “A lot<br />

of kids are first generation college<br />

students and need help, so we’re<br />

really happy to be able to provide<br />

ally special place where kids will<br />

gather, hang out, talk and really enjoy<br />

being here,” said Bill Hensley,<br />

City architect and project manager<br />

for Café College. “That way they’ll<br />

have a more open mind to the opportunities<br />

offered. It’s a place that<br />

will encourage them, think and<br />

dream the possibilities.”<br />

Café College will also supplement<br />

high school and university<br />

counselors.<br />

“There presently exists a ratio of<br />

400 students to each high school<br />

counselor,” explained Nikki Salzillo,<br />

chair of the <strong>San</strong> <strong>Antonio</strong><br />

Education Partnership Board of<br />

Directors, “so Café College will<br />

compliment the work of the counselors.<br />

Students and parents from<br />

need.”<br />

<strong>De</strong>signed to reflect <strong>San</strong> <strong>Antonio</strong>’s<br />

increasingly diverse population,<br />

both Café College and their<br />

website, CafeCollege.org, features<br />

a vibrant color palette, visuals and<br />

architecture which make them appealing<br />

and easy to use.<br />

In addition, the website features<br />

videos at each section with introductions<br />

from actual students and<br />

parents who have benefitted from<br />

the services of the partnership.<br />

Mayor Julián Castro, who made<br />

Café College a reality, <strong>welcomes</strong><br />

and 33310, respectively. The Distribution Voltage Facilities Rental Services are contained in<br />

Section 6.1.2.3.6 of the Companies’ Tariffs for Retail <strong>De</strong>livery Service.<br />

Providers servicing those customers, are affected by this application. Those customers take<br />

delivery service under Distribution Service Schedules 6.1.1.1.2 Secondary Voltage Service Equal<br />

Mamapoly<br />

By Nina Duran<br />

nina@laprensasa.com<br />

Monday night I was talking to my<br />

2-year-old, Noah, as he was rubbing<br />

his smooth, tiny belly. He looked<br />

cute and I k<strong>new</strong> dinner time was<br />

approaching. Since he loves fruit, I<br />

asked him in a soft voice, “Does baby<br />

want banana?”<br />

He replied, “Nana, nana” and went<br />

running to the kitchen. While he was<br />

standing there, waiting, I then asked<br />

him, “How about an apple?” He<br />

sprinted from the kitchen and went<br />

into the living room. My curious<br />

eyes watched him as he pointed at<br />

my MacBook and shouted, “Apple,<br />

apple!”<br />

It amazed me to think that my<br />

2-year-old son connects the word<br />

“apple” with MAC before fruit. We<br />

are now living in a world where children<br />

learn about technology before<br />

they do lots of other things.<br />

Because of this, I felt it appropriate<br />

to talk about kids and online safety,<br />

since they are pretty much inseparable<br />

now. My 7-year-old is addicted to<br />

online games and is quickly learning<br />

how to surf the net. As a parent, I’ve<br />

witnessed first-hand how impactful<br />

technology and the internet can be at<br />

a young age.<br />

Perhaps you’re looking for ways to<br />

protect your child, I know I am. Here<br />

are a few helpful tips brought to you<br />

by Disney Family that can help keep<br />

your children safe online.<br />

1. BOOKMARK QUALITY<br />

SITES IN ADVANCE – Stock<br />

your browser with age-appropriate<br />

links and show your kids how to<br />

navigate through ‘favorites.’ When<br />

preschoolers learn that clicking on a<br />

button takes them to fun sites, they<br />

will do as you say.<br />

2. PLAY ALONG – Familiarity<br />

with what your child is playing online<br />

can help ease your curiosity. When<br />

your child is online and you have a<br />

little bit of time, grab a seat next to<br />

them and play along. Not only will<br />

they love spending time with you,<br />

but you also realize and see exactly<br />

what your child is doing and you can<br />

see what you need to worry about and<br />

what you can relax knowing.<br />

3. INVEST IN A SUBSCRIP-<br />

TION – Sites like jumpstartworld.<br />

com, mynoggin.com, pbskidsplay.<br />

com and preschooltimeonline.com<br />

are some of the increasing number of<br />

sites that offer commercial-free content<br />

for about $6 a month. Just make<br />

sure you cancel your subscription if<br />

your child loses interest.<br />

4. TOUR GUIDE FIRST, PO-<br />

LICE OFFICER SECOND –<br />

Showing your older children how to<br />

find things with key words lets them<br />

know that you trust them. After you<br />

show them what to do, you can then<br />

tell them what not to do and what sites<br />

to stay away from. Don’t be a police<br />

officer first. Be supportive first, this<br />

way they know you will help them<br />

and steer them in the right direction.<br />

5. OFFER EDUCATIONAL<br />

OPTIONS – Download a copy of<br />

Scratch to let a child program their<br />

own game, or have your child help<br />

you create a digital photo with Yahoo’s<br />

Flickr or Google’s Picasa.<br />

6. LET YOUR CHILD KNOW<br />

THAT YOU ARE A SNOOP – It’s<br />

okay to randomly check their history<br />

and see what they have been looking<br />

at. It’s also okay to let them know that<br />

you are checking in on them. This<br />

will help them learn accountability<br />

and teach them how to appropriately<br />

use the internet and ultimately, keep<br />

them safe.<br />

7. CREATE A TECHNOLO-<br />

GY-FREE TIME – Don’t be afraid<br />

to set limits. It’s important to monitor<br />

their time online and replace that<br />

(every now and then) with a board<br />

game or some outside time. With<br />

cell phones and other technology<br />

around, it’s really okay to let go for<br />

a few hours.<br />

Friends, Faith and Fundraising: A cause to better lives<br />

By <strong>De</strong>nnis M Ayotte Jr.<br />

dayotte@laprensa.com<br />

A paradox is defined as a statement<br />

or proposition that seems<br />

contradictory or absurd but in<br />

reality expresses a possible truth.<br />

Imagine your life is full of joy<br />

and great health only to find out<br />

how quickly it can change with<br />

a simple diagnosis or loss of a<br />

loved one.<br />

What happens when you realize<br />

your life is contrary to what it<br />

once was, and you find yourself<br />

on the opposite end of the spectrum?<br />

Most people ask—why<br />

me? But, when you ask why,<br />

there is no true answer. You are<br />

simply faced with dealing with<br />

this issue at hand.<br />

<strong>La</strong>st October, Louise Locker<br />

was diagnosed with breast cancer<br />

in the midst of preparations<br />

for the “Elf Louise Christmas<br />

Project.” After giving gifts to<br />

under privileged children during<br />

Christmas for the past 40 years<br />

how could someone so gracious,<br />

kind and caring end up with such<br />

a diagnosis.<br />

“I’ve never said why me, I<br />

always ask what and how? How<br />

am I going to create as much<br />

good out of this,” said Locker. “I<br />

want to embrace it with my heart<br />

and soul and in the midst of the<br />

challenge how can I bring some<br />

good out of this for myself and<br />

other people.”<br />

After spending the night at<br />

Locker’s house to care for her<br />

as he’s done many nights, close<br />

friend Jim Johnston, was on his<br />

way home one morning when he<br />

had an idea to help his friend.<br />

After discussing the idea with his<br />

wife, Johnston enlisted the help<br />

of his friend Chris Duel, also a<br />

close friend of Locker, to get a<br />

list of local celebrities together<br />

to pose for a 1940-50s Hollywood<br />

glamour themed calendar.<br />

“Typical Louise, she never<br />

thinks of herself,” said Johnston.<br />

“Louise agreed to do the calendar,<br />

but only if an organization<br />

was brought in to partner with<br />

her in order to help others as<br />

well.” So, Johnston contacted the<br />

<strong>San</strong> <strong>Antonio</strong> affiliate of Susan<br />

G. Komen for the Cure to partner<br />

with the Help “Elf” Louise<br />

Locker Beat Cancer Fund.<br />

At Locker’s request, proceeds<br />

from the project would be split<br />

equally between her Help “Elf”<br />

Louise Beat Cancer Fund and the<br />

Bill White visits with Edgewood students<br />

He added: “I’m glad to see him<br />

[White] on the west side of <strong>San</strong> <strong>Antonio</strong>.<br />

There’s so much history when<br />

it comes to Edgewood and education<br />

–it’s where the battle for equity and<br />

school finance started many years<br />

ago so I think it’s very significant<br />

that he’s here to talk to the kids.”<br />

Edgewood’s Superintendant Dr.<br />

Elizabeth Garza said she was glad<br />

students had the educational opportunity<br />

to be a part of the election<br />

process. “It’s one thing to read it in<br />

the textbooks, but it’s another thing<br />

to actually get the opportunity to hear<br />

it from another candidate.”<br />

Bill White’s daughter, Elena<br />

White, 21, was also present to add<br />

her support. She told <strong>La</strong> <strong>Prensa</strong> she<br />

remained hopeful and excited to<br />

have her father’s leadership in <strong>Texas</strong>.<br />

“I see him in front of thousands<br />

of people speaking and I see him<br />

at home, and I know he’s the same<br />

guy,” she said. “He does what he<br />

says he’s going to do and he works<br />

hard to do it.”<br />

Former Houston Mayor Bill<br />

White participated in a student run<br />

question-and-answer session with<br />

high school students from Somerset,<br />

Harlandale, Southwest and South<br />

<strong>San</strong>, as part of their government<br />

and social studies curriculum. White<br />

told students what he stands for and<br />

what he’s going to represent when<br />

he’s elected.<br />

“<strong>Texas</strong> needs to plan ahead, that’s<br />

why I’m here at Edgewood,” said<br />

White.<br />

Jesus Ramirez, 17, a senior at John<br />

F. Kennedy, said he was excited to<br />

listen to what the candidate had to<br />

say. “I want to gain as much information<br />

on what he plans to do as<br />

governor. Although, I think White<br />

knows what’s best and he’ll push<br />

for just that.”<br />

Governor Rick Perry was also<br />

invited to attend, but the Republican<br />

declined the invitation, saying<br />

through a spokesperson he had<br />

“scheduling issues.”<br />

Other elected officials present<br />

were County Commissioner Tommy<br />

Adkisson, who introduced White as<br />

“the next governor of <strong>Texas</strong>.”<br />

State Representative José Menendez<br />

stressed the importance of voting,<br />

urging students to register if they<br />

wanted to influence governmental<br />

policy. “Registering to vote gives<br />

you a voice. If you don’t vote, you<br />

don’t matter.”<br />

State Representative Joaquin<br />

Castro recalled his roots and lifted<br />

student’s spirits saying they were no<br />

different than the students he sat next<br />

to at Harvard <strong>La</strong>w School. “There is<br />

so much potential here. I hope you<br />

all chase your dreams and live out<br />

those dreams.”

<strong>Antonio</strong> estableció un Centro de<br />

Capacitación para dar clases a los<br />

propietarios de casas, acerca de<br />

de plomería, electricidad e incluso<br />

drywall (paredes interiores).<br />

Capacitación tuvo lugar el martes<br />

propietarios pusieron manos a la<br />

obra por primera vez, aprendiendo<br />

técnicas de reparaciones de menor<br />

escala, que en el futuro les servirá,<br />

cuando reciban sus propias casas,<br />

o para que pongan en práctica lo<br />

que van aprendiendo en las casas<br />

que ya habitan.<br />

NBA 2010-11, con refuerzos<br />

novatos, el guardia James Anderson<br />

y el delantero Tiago Splitter, a<br />

quienes se les garantiza permanecer<br />

con el equipo grande. El delantero<br />

James Gist y Curtis Jerrells, que<br />

de seguro trabajarán duro para ser<br />

tomados en cuenta, tanto con los<br />

Spurs o la sucursal Toros de Austin<br />

(Liga de <strong>De</strong>sarrollo de la NBA), así<br />

como de un nuevo asistente de entrenador,<br />

el ex jugador Jacque Vaughn.<br />

Durante el “Día con los Medios”,<br />

se repartió la lista de jugadores que<br />

estarán participando en el campo de<br />

entrenamiento.<br />

Con un total de 17 elementos los<br />

Spurs comienzan sus arduas tareas<br />

de acondicionamiento físico y en<br />

el estilo de juego y estrategias que<br />

impondrán, primeramente en partidos<br />

de pretemporada, contra los<br />

rivales Rockets de Houston, Heat<br />

temporada, contamos con elementos<br />

que buscarán ganarse un lugar con el<br />

equipo grande. Anderson se ha visto<br />

bien en su rehabilitación, esperamos<br />

que esté listo para cuando comience<br />

el campo de entrenamiento. Tiago,<br />

por su parte, trae buenas credenciales,<br />

ha estado activo durante el<br />

verano, y eso lo mantendrá como un<br />

jugador rotativo que alterne con Tim<br />

Duncan. Con los servicios de Jacque,<br />

Gregg Popovich, entrenador en jefe de los Spurs, en su “jocoso”<br />

estilo complació a los medios informativos que cubrieron la<br />

los Spurs, obtendrá más experiencia,<br />

ya que él sabe motivar a los jugadores<br />

e implementar el estilo de juego”,<br />

dijo Popovich.<br />

Por su parte el guardia francés<br />

Tony Parker, dijo que sigue dedicado<br />

al cuidado personal, para llegar al<br />

campo de entrenamiento en excelente<br />

condición física. “Vengo descansado<br />

y con ganas de superar la temporada<br />

pasada. Spurs volverá a dar la pelea<br />

por recuperar su posición de un<br />

equipo triunfador”, añadió Parker.<br />

Splitter, emocionado, indicó que<br />

<strong>San</strong> <strong>Antonio</strong> le ha dado la mejor de<br />

las bienvenidas, ya que es una ciudad<br />

con vida latina y sobre todo que<br />

cuenta con la orientación del estelar<br />

Manu Ginóbili, con quien consulta<br />

muy seguido sobre diversos tópicos<br />

concernientes al tipo de juego de<br />

los Spurs y el desarrollo de la vida<br />

cotidiana en la región de El Álamo.<br />

“El partido que jugaremos contra<br />

mi ex equipo, Caja <strong>La</strong>boral, va a ser<br />

algo muy especial para mí, ya que<br />

volveré a ver a mis amigos de equipo.<br />

Habrá muchas emociones durante el<br />

partido”, dijo Splitter, quien sin quitar<br />

el dedo del renglón añadió, “Para<br />

mi va a ser un gran cambio jugar con<br />

el equipo que siempre desee jugar.<br />

El baloncesto europeo se juega con<br />

bastante contacto físico, es un juego<br />

diferente y eso no está permitido<br />

por la NBA. Creo que pronto podré<br />

adaptarme al estilo de juego de Spurs<br />

y contra los equipos rivales”.<br />

SPORTS<br />

Blanda epitomized an NFL ironman<br />

Tom <strong>La</strong>Marre<br />

SportsXchange<br />

FoxSports.com<br />

On Aug. 26, 1976, another<br />

hot afternoon at<br />

Oakland Raiders training<br />

camp in <strong>San</strong>ta Rosa,<br />

Calif., two sportswriters<br />

were surprised when<br />

George Blanda burst out<br />

of his motel room with<br />

suitcases in hand.<br />

The writers, who just<br />

happened to walking by,<br />

helped the living legend<br />

load his car, and in return<br />

he gave them a blockbuster<br />

story.<br />

“They put me on waivers,<br />

and they want me to<br />

stick around to see what<br />

happens,” said Blanda,<br />

who was just shy of his<br />

49th birthday at the time.<br />

“But to hell with that. I’m<br />

out of here.”<br />

And with that, the longest<br />

and one of the greatest<br />

careers in the history<br />

of pro football was over.<br />

Blanda, who died Monday<br />

at age 83, played 26<br />

seasons with the Chicago<br />

Bears, Baltimore Colts,<br />

Houston Oilers and Raiders<br />

as a quarterback, linebacker<br />

and kicker.<br />

After playing at Kentucky<br />

under Paul “Bear”<br />

Bryant, he embarked on<br />

his Hall of Fame professional<br />

career while playing<br />

for George Halas with<br />

the Bears in 1949.<br />

Blanda scored 2,002<br />

points, an NFL record at<br />

the time, and passed for<br />

26,920 yards and 236<br />

touchdowns while playing<br />

in parts of four decades.<br />

But what those who<br />

played with and against<br />

him remember most is his<br />

attitude, and he had it on<br />

and off the field.<br />

“George Blanda was<br />

possibly the fiercest<br />

competitor I have ever<br />

known,” said center Jim<br />

Otto, who had his own<br />

Hall of Fame career with<br />

the Raiders. “He was competing<br />

in everything he did<br />

in life.<br />

“If he saw two ants on<br />

the ground that looked<br />

like they were racing,<br />

he would get you to bet<br />

which one would win. In<br />

practice, when I was snapping<br />

the ball to the holder,<br />

he would bet he could<br />

make it from wherever he<br />

was. He didn’t just want<br />

to practice, he wanted to<br />

make it challenging.<br />

“He was loved by so<br />

many people for his intensity,<br />

and I’m sure some<br />

people got the wrong side<br />

of that if they were the<br />

competition.”<br />

Blanda, an avid and talented<br />

golfer, would invite<br />

Raiders rookies out to the<br />

golf course and then take<br />

their money.<br />

“He hustled us,” said<br />

Mike Siani, the Raiders’<br />

No. 1 draft choice in 1972.<br />

Blanda had a testy relationship<br />

with Halas, the<br />

legendary Papa Bear, who<br />

was just as crusty, and his<br />

playing days seemed to be<br />

over when he retired from<br />

the Bears after the 1958<br />

season.<br />

But after he sat out one<br />

season, the American<br />

Football League came<br />

along in 1960, and Blanda<br />

became one of its first<br />

stars with the Oilers,<br />

leading them to the <strong>new</strong><br />

league’s first championship.<br />

He helped make the<br />

AFL competitive with the<br />

established NFL.<br />

“That first year, the<br />

Houston Oilers or Los Angeles<br />

Chargers could have<br />

beaten the NFL champion<br />

(Philadelphia) in a Super<br />

Bowl,” Blanda said years<br />

later.<br />

“I think the AFL was capable<br />

of beating the NFL<br />

in a Super Bowl game as<br />

far back as 1960 or ‘61. I<br />

just regret we didn’t get<br />

the chance to prove it.”<br />

When Blanda was released<br />

by the Oilers on<br />

March 18, 1967, managing<br />

general partner Al<br />

Davis of the Raiders might<br />

have been the only one<br />

who thought there was life<br />

left in his arm and leg.<br />

Blanda signed with<br />

the Raiders and helped<br />

them reach Super Bowl II,<br />

where Oakland lost to the<br />

Green Bay Packers, 33-14.<br />

“If I had a mentor, it was<br />

George,” said quarterback<br />

Kenny Stabler, who led<br />

the Raiders to their first<br />

of three Super Bowl victories.<br />

“We were friends,<br />

and the bond that pulled us<br />

together was that we both<br />

played for Coach Bryant<br />

in college.<br />

“George made the first<br />

move, coming over to talk<br />

to me. I was in awe of him.<br />

He did all the talking, and<br />

I did all the listening. The<br />

thing I remember most<br />

that he told me was to be<br />

ready when you got your<br />

opportunity.<br />

“Not only did he tell<br />

me, but he showed me,<br />

because when he got his<br />

chances, he went out and<br />

did it, especially in 1970.”<br />

In 1970, Blanda’s legend<br />

was already assured,<br />

but he added perhaps the<br />

greatest chapter. He was<br />

a backup to quarterback<br />

Daryle <strong>La</strong>monica at the<br />

Blanda Kicked the game-winning field-goal in overtime for a 26-23 victory over the Washington Redskins in<br />

November of 1975. (Crourtesy photo)<br />

time, but for five weeks he<br />

was, as Raiders announcer<br />

Bill King said, “king of<br />

the world.”<br />

The 43-year-old’s lategame<br />

heroics bailed out<br />

the Raiders in five consecutive<br />

games.<br />

First, he came on when<br />

<strong>La</strong>monica was injured and<br />

threw three touchdown<br />

passes to beat the Pittsburgh<br />

Steelers.<br />

One week later, he<br />

kicked a 48-yard field<br />

goal with three seconds<br />

left to tie the Kansas City<br />

Chiefs, 17-17.<br />

Against the Cleveland<br />

Browns, he threw a gametying<br />

touchdown pass with<br />

1:34 left and then kicked<br />

a game-winning, 53-yard<br />

field goal with three seconds<br />

remaining.<br />

In the next game, he<br />

relieved <strong>La</strong>monica and<br />

threw a touchdown pass to<br />

Fred Biletnikoff with 2:28<br />

left to beat the <strong>De</strong>nver<br />

Broncos.<br />

On the fifth week, his<br />

16-yard field goal in the<br />

closing second beat the<br />

<strong>San</strong> Diego Chargers, 20-<br />

17.<br />

“George Blanda is the<br />

greatest clutch player the<br />

game of pro football has<br />

ever known,” Davis said<br />

when introducing Blanda<br />

for induction to the Hall<br />

of Fame in 1981.<br />

Once, when Blanda was<br />

in at quarterback in another<br />

cliff-hanger and driving<br />

the Raiders inside the<br />

opponents’ 20-yard line,<br />

he came to the sideline to<br />

consult with coach John<br />

Madden during a timeout.<br />

“Let me throw three<br />

(post patterns) to Warren<br />

Wells, and I guarantee<br />

you a touchdown,” Blanda<br />

said.<br />

Madden said: “If you<br />

guarantee it, then go<br />

ahead.”<br />

On first down, Blanda’s<br />

pass was incomplete,<br />

but he delivered on his<br />

guarantee when Wells<br />

caught the second one for<br />

the game-winning touchdown.<br />

Tom <strong>La</strong>Marre is a senior<br />

writer for The Sports<br />

Xchange and was one of<br />

the reporters who helped<br />

Blanda load his car on<br />

that final day. The other<br />

was Frank Cooney, who<br />

contributed to this article<br />

and is now publisher of<br />

The Sports Xchange.

Vístase de rojo para el corazón<br />

Por Jimena Pérez<br />

jperez@laprensasa.com<br />

<strong>La</strong>s enfermedades cardiovasculares<br />

son la causa de muerte número<br />

uno entre las latinas y en promedio,<br />

las hispanas son más propensas a<br />

desarrollar una enfermedad cardiovascular<br />

10 años antes que mujeres<br />

de otra etnia. Es por eso que Go<br />

Red Por Tú Corazón se ha dado<br />

a la tarea de crear conciencia e<br />

informar a la sociedad, en especial<br />

a la comunidad hispana, de este<br />

problema que se ha incrementado<br />

considerablemente.<br />

“Para nosotros es una meta<br />

grande llevar esa información a<br />

nuestra comunidad porque muchas<br />

mujeres todavía no reconocen<br />

ese riesgo”, comentó Nora Silva,<br />

directora de iniciativas de salud<br />

de la Asociación Americana del<br />

Corazón.<br />

El movimiento Por Tu Corazón<br />

fue lanzado en el 2009 con el fin de<br />

educar a las mujeres hispanoparlantes<br />

sobre las enfermedades del<br />

corazón, enseñarles el cómo pueden<br />

ayudar a sus familias a prevenir estas<br />

enfermedades y de cómo pueden<br />

llevar vidas saludables a través de<br />

una buena alimentación y ejercicio.<br />

“Por Tu Corazón, se derivó de<br />

la campaña nacional en inglés, Go<br />

Red for Women; no obstante, la<br />

mujer latina no estaba bien informada<br />

del riesgo de enfermedades<br />

cardiovasculares y es por eso que se<br />

lanzó esta campaña”, explicó Silva.<br />

Más de 435,000 mujeres mueren<br />

al año a consecuencia de enfermedades<br />

del corazón, es decir, aproximadamente<br />

una mujer muere cada<br />

minuto. <strong>De</strong> hecho, el 80 por ciento<br />

de los eventos cardiacos de mujeres<br />

están ligado a las malas decisiones<br />

que toman, incluyendo dieta, actividad<br />

física y fumar.<br />

Una de las formas de modificar<br />

las estadísticas es cambiando los<br />

hábitos alimenticios e incluyendo<br />

un programa de ejercicios a su<br />

rutina. El comer sanamente puede<br />

reducir factores de riesgo para<br />

desarrollar alguna enfermedad del<br />

corazón por ejemplo; hipertensión,<br />

altos niveles de glucosa en la sangre,<br />

colesterol alto y obesidad.<br />

Louise Locker... (continued from page 12)<br />

<strong>San</strong> <strong>Antonio</strong> Affiliate of Susan<br />

G. Komen for the Cure. “I have<br />

to always have something in<br />

my life that isn’t for me, said<br />

Locker. “It just gives me such a<br />

great feeling and so much more<br />

energy for life.”<br />

Once word spread about the<br />

idea of “Strike A Pose” to help<br />

Locker and the <strong>San</strong> <strong>Antonio</strong> Affiliate<br />

of Susan G. Komen for the<br />

Cure, filling the calendar pages<br />

with some of the Alamo City’s<br />

most beautiful women was effortless.<br />

Among the women who<br />

posed were BMP radio’s C.J.<br />

Cruz, WOAI’s <strong>De</strong>laine Mathieu,<br />

and FOX’s Karen Martinez.<br />

“Being able to do this meant<br />

a lot to me. I’m a breast cancer<br />

survivor, so raising awareness<br />

about this horrible disease is a<br />

personal goal,” said Fox’s Karen<br />

Martinez. “I’m touched and<br />

amazed by all of the beautiful<br />

women willing to take part in the<br />

calendar shoot. I get emotional<br />

just thinking about how many<br />

people this will reach and how<br />

much awareness it will raise.”<br />

Cancer has affected many<br />

people’s lives whether it’s been<br />

a personal battle or one within<br />

your family. “My grandmother<br />

had breast cancer. She was diagnosed<br />

in her 30’s. She fought<br />

it and lived a very long and<br />

wonderful life,” said WOAI’s<br />

<strong>De</strong>laine Mathieu. “Supporting<br />

the cause is an absolute must for<br />

me. I want to see a cure for this<br />

disease that has taken so many<br />

people’s lives.”<br />

Locker expressed that, you<br />

You can’t get to far ahead into<br />

the “what if’s.” No matter where<br />

we are in life it could be anything<br />

whether it’s your career, a relationship<br />

or an illness.<br />

Locker’s greatest joy in life<br />

since she was a 5-year-old little<br />

girl was running through the<br />

aisles of her small-town grocery<br />

store and being able to connect<br />

with people. “I would run up<br />

and down the aisles saying hi to<br />

complete strangers,” said Locker<br />

“I’ve always carried the absolute<br />

belief in the goodness in people<br />

and the potential for good in the<br />

world.”<br />

“I feel so honored to have been<br />

asked by Jim and Vanessa of<br />

Sundance Photo Arts, to be part<br />

of Strike A Pose,” said Cruz. “I<br />

am so fortunate to be in the company<br />

of so many amazing women<br />

and to have an opportunity to<br />

help another amazing and incredible<br />

woman, Elf Louis Locker.”<br />

Locker is now cancer free and<br />

in remission. She is a third of the<br />

way through radiation therapy to<br />

ensure she remains cancer free.<br />

“It makes all the difference in<br />

the world when you are going<br />

through something that is frightening<br />

and life altering.” said<br />

Locker. “It’s the love the people<br />

give you and the kindness along<br />

the way that allows you to rise<br />

above the most difficult things<br />

in life.”<br />
