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 />

“We’ve been working with students<br />
throughout this partnership<br />
for years and it still surprises me<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 />
them with all the information and<br />
guidance they need.”<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 />
across the city will be able to come<br />
and get all the information they<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 />

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 />

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.”

Capacitan a dueños de casas en Habitat for Humanity<br />
Especial para <strong>La</strong> <strong>Prensa</strong><br />
Habitat for Humanity of <strong>San</strong><br />
<strong>Antonio</strong> estableció un Centro de<br />
Capacitación para dar clases a los<br />
propietarios de casas, acerca de<br />
cómo hacer reparaciones menores<br />
en su propiedad, ahorrando dinero<br />
en mano de obra, y dando ocupación<br />
productiva en su tiempo libre.<br />
<strong>De</strong>ntro de los almacenes de<br />
Habitat for Humanity, en la avenida<br />
Probant, número 311, se<br />
construyó una casa similar a las<br />
que esta institución construye para<br />
familias de recursos limitados, y<br />
en ella, los propietarios de casas<br />
y los futuros propietarios, reciben<br />
instrucción de cómo hacer ellos<br />
mismos las reparaciones menores,<br />
como cubrir huecos en las paredes<br />
o pintarlas; hacer trabajos menores<br />
de plomería, electricidad e incluso<br />
drywall (paredes interiores).<br />
<strong>La</strong> apertura de este Centro de<br />
Capacitación tuvo lugar el martes<br />
21, y de inmediato algunos<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 />
En una sencilla ceremonia, el<br />
Centro de Capacitación entró en<br />
funciones para los futuros propietarios<br />
de casa, cuya solicitud ya<br />
está en trámite y que en un futuro<br />
próximo recibirán la vivienda. Bill<br />
Krupa, vice<strong>president</strong>e de construcción<br />
de Habitat for Humanity, dijo,<br />
“que los propietarios de las casas<br />
que construimos estén familiarizados<br />
con su construcción y para ello<br />
les proporcionamos la capacitación<br />
adecuada”.<br />
Este Centro de Capacitación fue<br />
construido por personal de Habitat<br />
for Humanity y por voluntarios.<br />
Todas las familias que entran al<br />
programa de casas habitación de<br />
Habitat tienen que participar en<br />
la capacitación de propietarios,<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 />
de Miami, Los Ángeles Clippers<br />
(con estos jugarán en la Ciudad de<br />
México el martes 12, Palacio de los<br />

“Esperamos comenzar bien la<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 />

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 />

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 />

<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 />

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 />

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 />
