nation. That’s the point of this
bill. It is.”
The bill is similar to a proposal last year brought by
Yarbrough but vetoed by
Brewer. That legislation also
would have allowed people or
religious groups to sue if they
believed they might be subject
to a government regulation that
infringed on their religious
rights. Yarbrough stripped a
provision from the bill in hopes
Brewer will embrace the new
version.
Civil liberties and secular
groups countered that
Yarbrough and the Center for
Arizona Policy had sought to
minimize concerns that last
year’s bill had far-reaching and
hidden implications. During
the Senate debate Wednesday,
Democrats said the bill could
allow people to break nearly
any law and cite religious freedom as a defense.
Yarbrough called those
worries “unrealistic and unsupported hypotheticals” and said
criminal laws will continue to
be prosecuted by the courts.
Rep. Chad Campbell of
Phoenix, the Democratic minority leader, said during debate that gays and lesbians
across the country would get
the message that they’re not
welcome in Arizona.
“We’re telling them, ‘We
don’t like you. We don’t want
you here. We’re not going to
protect you,” he said.
Senate President Andy
Biggs, R-Gilbert, said the Democrats’ rhetoric was misplaced.
“Sometimes people’s
rhetoric tends to inflame instead of explain,” Biggs said.
“And I would suggest if there
is going to be a backlash because of 1062 ... it will because of the intemperate and
inaccurate rhetoric.”

Manufacturers in and
around Lenawee County
will get a chance to meet
future engineers, designers, machinists, welders,
and other star future employees at the:
LISD TECH Center’s
Inaugural Reverse Job
Fair Has been RESCHEDULED TO:
Friday, March 7, 2014,
from 9:30 a.m. - 2:30 p.m.
1372 North Main Street,
Adrian MI.
The ‘reverse’ part of the
job fair means that LISD
TECH Center students will
be behind tables with resumes and work samples
showcasing their skills and
abilities for employers.
Anyone who makes hiring
decisions at a manufacturing company is invited to
move about the room to
meet and talk with students
about future employment.
About 100 students
from the LISD TECH
Center’s Advanced
Manufacturing, Alternative Energy &
Robotics, Welding
Technology, and Engineering, Design &
CAD programs are
taking part in the Reverse Job Fair. South
Central Michigan Works!,
Lenawee Now, the Jackson
Area Manufacturing Association, and Siena Heights
University have helped organize and promote the
event.
“We have some of the
best and brightest young
talent in Lenawee County at
the LISD TECH Center, and
the Reverse Job Fair will help
showcase their potential,”
said Principal Shelley Jusick.
“Prospective employers will
get a chance to develop relationships with students at
various stages of readiness
for the job market: some will
be entering the job market
in June, others are looking
for after-school, weekend,
or summer jobs, and still
others will be heading for
college after graduation.”
Perspective employers,
who pre-register on the
LISD
web
site
(www.lisd.us), will have
lunch and tours provided
during the morning/afternoon shift change.
The Reverse Job Fair is
part of the LISD’s recognition of Career and Technical Education (CTE)
Month. For more information, call 517-265-1769.

Final Collingwood Arts Center Residents Show
Saturday, Feb. 22, 2014, 7PM-11PM
The Collingwood Arts Center’s last residential art show, featuring unique
visual artists, live musical performances and spoken word performances. Please
help the residents of the Collingwood Arts Center raise funds to facilitate their
relocation. As you may have heard, the Collingwood Arts Center has discontinued
their residency program due to significant infrastructure issues. This decision has
resulted in the 28 resident artists being forced to find new homes in only 30 days.
We will have art work for sale and auction, live performers and more in our
community’s last art show. For more information, stay tuned and RSVP on

Mexicano Vergara vende a Chivas USA
NUEVA YORK, 20 de
feb. de 2014 (AP): El
empresario mexicano Jorge
Vergara vendió el equipo
Chivas USA a la Major
League Soccer (MLS), que
el
jueves
anunció
oficialmente
la
transacción.
Vergara fue parte del
grupo
original
de
inversionistas que compró
un equipo de expansión, el
cual comenzó a jugar en
2005, y él junto con su
esposa Angélica Fuentes se
convirtieron en dueños
únicos del club en 2012.
Vergara es también el
dueño de las Chivas de
Guadalajara de la liga de
fútbol mexicana.
“Agradecemos a Jorge
Vergara y Angélica Fuentes
por su compromiso con la
Major League Soccer”, dijo
el Comisionado de la MLS,
Don Garber. “Jorge fue de
los primeros en creer en la
liga. Juntos acordamos que
es mejor vender el club a
nuevos dueños”.
No se revelaron los
términos económicos del
acuerdo.
La MLS informó que en
los próximos días nombrará a
un nuevo presidente para
asumir el puesto y confirmó
que el entrenador, Wilmer
Cabrera, quien se unió al club
el 9 de enero, continuará en
su posición.
Se informó que la MLS
planea vender al equipo a un
nuevo grupo que se
comprometerá a construir un
estadio y a mantener al
equipo en Los Ángeles, California.
El club seguirá usando el
mote de Chivas USA en la
temporada 2014 y el próximo
año será rebautizado por los
nuevos dueños.
Vergara es dueño de los
derechos de marca y uso del
nombre Chivas, pero aceptó
que la MLS lo siga usando
durante la transición.
“Exploramos oportunidades de vender a otros grupos,
pero creemos que vender la
franquicia a la MLS en forma
acelerada es de beneficio para
todos
involucrados,
incluyendo los jugadores y la
fiel afición del club”, dijo
Vergara. “Resultó ser una
transacción eficiente y
beneficiosa para todos
involucrados”.
Vergara había sido
duramente criticado por el
pobre desempeño de
Chivas USA, que la
temporada pasada tuvo el
segundo peor récord de la
liga con seis ganados, 20
perdidos y ocho empates,
además que tenían la peor
asistencia de la MLS con
un promedio de 8.366 aficionados por encuentro.
Desde que asumieron el
control total en 2012,
Vergara y Fuentes también
fueron acusados de actos
discriminatorios. Dos
entrenadores de sus
filiares, Daniel Calichman
y
Theothoros
Chronopoulos,
presentaron demandas por
discriminación en mayo
pasado en la Corte Superior de Justicia de Los
Ángeles, afirmando que
fueron despedidos por no
ser mexicanos ni de origen
hispano.
Chivas USA arranca la
temporada 2014 de la MLS
el 9 de marzo cuando recibe
al Chicago Fire.

has experience in Europe
and international experience
with the Costa Rican National Team. He’s been a
solid starter all through FIFA
World Cup Qualifying for
Costa Rica and we feel he is
going to be a good addition
to our team.
“He’s dangerous on offensive set pieces and he’s a
good passer of the ball,” continued Berhalter. “He’s good
in one-v-one tackling and
he has leadership qualities.
He’s proven that he can win
with Alajuelense in Costa
Rica and with the Costa Rica
National Team, so we like
all of those qualities.”
González joins the Black
& Gold from Norwegian First
Division side Vålerenga
where he made 27 appearances and scored three goals
over one and a half full seasons. In 2013, González
made 25 appearances – including 20 starts – and scored

and made 57 regular-season appearances and scored
six goals from
2009-2012 after
joining the club for

2011-2012
CONCACAF
Champions
League play –
González’s second
experience in the tournament
– he made six appearances,
including an August 25, 2011
Group A match in Carson,
California against the LA Galaxy (a 2-0 Galaxy win) and
starting defender – and now
Crew boss – Gregg Berhalter.
Internationally, González
has earned 31 total caps for
Costa Rica dating back to his
debut against Peru in a friendly
on October 9, 2010. In total,
González has scored two goals
for his country, including a
tally in the May 25, 2012
friendly against Guatemela
and the game-winning goal to

Honduras alongside Crew forward and fellow countryman
Jairo Arrieta on January 27,
2013. Across his 31 caps,
González has seen time in 10
friendlies, three CONCACAF
Gold Cup matches, four Copa
Centroamerica tilts and 14
FIFA World Cup Qualifiers.
He started in both 2013 FIFA

against the United States in
2013 (March 27 and Septem-
ber 7) and most recently
started in the 2-1 win for Los
Ticos over Mexico on October 16, 2013. González also
represented his country on
two occasions at the Under20 level.

ing the kids than they do. He four brothers and we all did
it—and none of us ended up
in jail.”
Now Urbina is trying to
pass down to a new generation what he learned as a
kid—what kept his family
together.
“I just have a passion for
it,” he said. “My brothers did
it. My dad had champions
before. So I guess it’s just in
the bloodlines with us. Even
my grandpa did the fighting.”
At the Believe Center, the
young boxers are forced to
focus. Tutors help them with
homework. There’s also a
rule—cell phones and computers are off limits while
completing a two-hour daily
workout and training.
“A lot of kids just want to
be doing games or on the
phone all day,” he said.
“Around here, they know if
they’re doing boxing from 5
to 7, they can’t answer.”
“We have a no TV, no
Internet zone here, because
they can do that at home,”
said Ms. Durán, laughing.
“When they’re here, they
concentrate on the games,
their ability, and whatever
activity they’re doing here—
not phones. They ask me for
the wireless code, but I tell
them I don’t know it.”
To some degree, the boxing program even fights a
childhood obesity problem.
“A lot of them came here
as big kids. Now they see
themselves doing pull-ups
when they couldn’t before,”
he said with a smile. “A
couple weeks, three weeks
into it, they realize they can
do a couple. Just got to keep
doing it. Makes them stronger.”
While many people may
view boxing as an individual
sport, Urbina stresses kids are
learning a lot of teamwork
along the way.
“Not when you’re in the
gym. When you go out in
combat, yes, it’s you and him.
But in the gym, they push
each other,” he explained.
“You spar, work the bag,
doing pushups. We do drills,
see who’s the best, keep them
competitive. We stay on each
other in the gym. Even the
kids stay on me when I work
out in the gym. They try to
push me. In the ring, it may
be individual—but you still
have each other, cheering
each other.”
The youngest boxer is
eight years old. But Urbina is
willing to work with kids as
young as seven to see if they
like the sport.
“Their faces light up. It’s
priceless when they win, because they didn’t think
they’d be doing this. Some
of them are pretty tough,” he
said.
Urbina has every confidence he has some future
Golden Gloves winners in the
gym.
“Oh yeah, for sure—we
just have to get them moving
faster,” he said. “We’ve got a
couple of them that are coming around really well.”
Still a struggle
Ms. Durán stated the boxing program has worked with
85 kids at one time or another—and more than half
have become regulars. City
recreation officials helped
the center secure a boxing
ring once programs expanded to additional space
that became available.
“We’ve been missing this
piece in the Old South End,”
she said. “Before, kids would
have to go to the north end or
east for the boxing program.
My goal is to keep sports
alive and boxing’s the only
thing we didn’t do.”
The Believe Center now
hosts dance classes and a tennis program in addition to its
initial sports since it opened
nearly two years ago. According to Durán, kids walk
through the front doors more
than 1,100 times each week
for various programs.
“People still don’t know
who we are. We have no funding for our boxing program,”
she lamented. The center
continues to run entirely
with volunteers. Even the
boxing program’s tutoring
sessions are run by retired
schoolteacher
Maria
Martinez and a volunteer
helper. Somehow, someone
always manages to answer a
call for help in the neighborhood.
“We still need equipment—and money,” said Ms.
Durán. “We have the kids.
The kids come faithfully.
Even in the super, super cold,
the kids still came and they
like being here. It’s a safe
place, yes.”
The center also tries to
continue to make sure kids
who come to its sports programs don’t go home hungry—because outside of
school, it may be the only
meal they’ll see.
“We can’t give them
much. Sometimes it’s just
crackers and cheese, a bowl
of soup, or grilled-cheese,”
said Ms. Durán. “Today my
sister made turkey sandwiches. Every day we try to
give them a little something
in their stomach.”
Nearly two years later, Ms.
Durán still sticks to the core
mission of the Believe Center.
“We believe we’ve made
a difference in every child’s
life,” she said. “We do. When
they come in, they hold the
doors open for other people.
They’re really respectful and
it’s really nice. Even parents
tell us when they get home,
they’re so tired they take a
shower and go to sleep—the
kids don’t act up.”
But Ms. Durán also stated
the Believe Center helps kids
believe in themselves, “to be
happy for what they have,”
as she put it.
“We may not have a lot,
but we’re happy with what
we have. We teach them that,”
she explained. “Respect
yourselves. Respect others.
Live a happy life.”

kids for sports programs can

“Also, the ability to
