This week, the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) broke ground on a highway connector project that will directly link SR-905 and the future SR-11 to northbound 125. Currently, vehicles and trucks entering the U.S. through Otay Mesa must travel through circuitous and congested local roads to access SR-125. The new project will provide a seamless highway system, benefitting the thousands of people crossing northbound through this East County Port of Entry (POE). With it, authorities seek to boost the region’s economic growth and address the losses caused by border delays. “Time is money, as any truck driver will tell you”, stated Otay Mesa Chamber of Commerce Director Alejandra Mier y Teran. “We hear it from manufacturing companies and business groups, their biggest concern is logistics costs”. The more we expedite commerce, “the more companies will set theri sights on COVER STORY | www.LaPrensaSD.com | Vol. 39 | No. 50 HONEY PHOTOGRAPHS BY ALYSS SAN DIEGO | OCTOBER 30, 2015 ESPAÑOL P.5 South Bay and East County Leaders Fight San Diego Proposed Water Rates BY SANDRA G. LEON N o one likes to overpay, and a coalition of leaders are fighting a proposal by the City of San Diego to overcharge the South Bay and East County $7.2 million over the next six years for recycled water. The local leaders claim that San Diego is proposing rates for recycled water that overcharge Otay customers in order to undercharge the City’s recycled water customers north of the City. These leaders include County Supervisors Greg Cox and Diane Jacob, San Diego City Councilman David Alvarez, Chula Vista Mayor Mary Casillas Salas and the Chula Vista City Council, State Senator Ben Hueso, the Southwestern College Board of Trustees, and ten local chambers of commerce and business associations. They point out that the South Bay’s water rates should be based on the costs to serve the South Bay, not on the costs to serve customers north of the City who are served by a separate, physically independent system that is unconnected to the system that serves the South Bay and parts of East County. The South Bay and adjoining parts of the East County use recycled water to irrigate greenways along streets, areas managed by Exposición en Escondido honra a los ancestros y celebra El Día de Los Muertos POR MARÍA GONZÁLEZ AMARILLO homeowners associations, parks, golf courses, and other public areas. These customers are provided water by the Otay Water District, which purchases 99 percent of the recycled water produced at the City’s South Bay Water Reclamation Plant in the Tijuana River Valley. Otay distributes that water over a $200 million distribution system that it built, owns, and operates. According to the City of San Diego’s cost analysis, the rate to serve the South Bay is based on the cost to produce recycled water alone - $1.14 per hundred cubic feet of water (hcf ). Distribution costs are not included because Otay owns its own distribution system. Separately, the analysis estimates the cost to produce and distribute recycled water for customers north of the City to be $2.14 hcf. These customers depend on San Diego for both production and distribution on the City-owned distribution system. The City has proposed a single rate that combines the costs of both the South Bay and the North City to create a rate of $1.73 hcf – more than what it costs to serve the South Bay and less than what it costs to serve the North. “The City’s proposed rates are unfair and inequitable to CONTINUED ON PAGE 4 our customers,” said Mark Watton, General Manager of the Otay Water District. “If the City needs to raise rates to cover its cost, that’s fine, but this is a deliberate attempt to force our customers in the South Bay and East County to pay the costs of the North system to subsidize both the City of San Diego and water users north of the City.” The coalition notes that of the 600 recycled water accounts north of the City, 100 are City of San Diego accounts for golf courses, parks, and other outdoor uses. “It’s an inherent conflict of interest for the City to set rates to benefit itself at the expense of others,” El pasado 10 de octubre se inauguró la exposición “Re-membering Our Ancestors: Discovering Ourselves” en The Museum en California Center for the Arts, Escondido. La muestra artística, que honra a aquellos que nos han dejado, permanecerá disponible para su visita hasta el 22 de noviembre. El precio de admisión general es de $8, con descuentos para estudiantes, personas mayores y militares y acceso gratuito a menores de 12 años. “Honrar a los ancestros es algo que se hace alrededor de todo el mundo en una gran variedad de culturas”, dice David Avalos, curador de la exposición, a La Prensa San Diego. “El Día de los Muertos es una época para ver cómo se celebra entre mexicanos y chicanos, pero también hicimos este evento como una oportunidad para decir cómo otras personas recuerdan a aquellos que han fallecido y en particular cómo artistas locales y regionales les recuerdan.” Además de ser un artista CONTINUED ON PAGE 4 CONTINUA EN LA PAGINA 7 Cross Border Terminal Nears Completion BY ALBERTO GARCIA A gala event at the new Cross Border Xpress bi-national terminal in Otay Mesa gave visitors a first peak around the world’s only airport skybridge to cross an international border. Among the attendees were local and international leaders, including The Honorable Remedios Gomez Arnau, Mexican Consul General in San Diego, Chula Vista Mayor Mary Salas, Mexico’s Undersecretary of Tourism Francisco Maass, and representatives from Congressmembers Juan Vargas, Scott Peters, and Susan Davis. The event was a kickoff dinner for the Mexico Moving Forward conference sponsored by UC San Diego’s Center for U.S.-Mexican Studies at the School of Global Policy and Strategy. The conference brings together business leaders, scholars, and policy makers to discuss Mexico’s progress and future direction. CBX, as the Cross Border Xpress is known in the airport world, is scheduled to open to the public on Cross Border Xpress Building Exterior (U.S.) (PHOTO: BUSINESS WIRE) December 8th.

The event gave VIP tours to the new terminal that will allow travelers to park on the US side and walk across a skybridge to TJ airport. Local VIPs included Chula Vista Mayor Mary Salas and Mexico’s Consul General in SD, Remedios Gomez Arnau. BILLIONAIRE AMONG US Boston’s Sam Zell was also on hand at the cross border terminal Thursday night. Zell is an investor behind this unique transborder airport terminal. Zell used to own the Tribune Company, owner of the LA Times newspaper, as well as the Chicago Cubs. It’s not often that a billionaire invests in a local project, showing some strong potential for the private airport terminal bridge. FAULCONER GETS A RACE Democrat Gretchen Newsom has thrown her hat in the ring as a long-shot candidate against San Diego Mayor Kevin Faulconer. Newsom is President of the Ocean Beach Town Council and political director for the local IBEW electricians union. So far no well-known Dems have shown an interest in challenging the Mayor. It’s too early to know if someone with more political clout will jump in, but time is running out. CITY PAYS FILNER CLAIMS The City of San Diego this week agreed to pay $99k to two woman who accused former Mayor Bob Filner of sexual harassment. This comes after the city paid $250,000 last year to another accuser. At least 4 more cases are pending. Filner resigned in August 2013 which led to the election of Kevin Faulconer. NEWS TIPS.

Sáinz Susana Villegas Barbara Zaragoza Paco Zavala PERSPECTIVE Our Culture’s Not a Costume A s we decorate our homes with pumpkins and stock up on candies to hand out to strangers who will soon be knocking on our doors, the week of Halloween seems like an appropriate time to draw attention to the ways cultures have been turned into costumes in mainstream American society. We as Latinos are not alone on the long list of cultural stereotypes used not only at Halloween, but in everyday life. Other groups including Asians, African Americans, Native Americans, and Middle Easterners have seen their traditional garb and customs turned into mockeries. To bring attention to this alarming trend of tolerated racism, students at the University of Ohio in 2011 started a campaign to put faces to the racist stereotypes being used too liberally. The school’s Students Teaching About Racism in Society (STARS) began a poster campaign titled “This is who I am, and this is not okay” with casually dressed students of different ethnicities holding pictures of their respective culture’s characterization. One poster is of a Latino student holding a drawing of a Mexican character wearing a sombrero, sarape, sporting a huge mustache, and riding a burro. Other posters protest blacks in ghetto fab clothes, a Japanese woman in geisha outfit, an Arab with a head dress, and a white student with a redneck hillbilly costume ad. But it’s not just at Halloween. When visitors walk through Legoland in Carlsbad, they pass three overweight life-size Lego brick characters wearing sombreros, sarapes, and big mustaches as they play trumpets blaring ranchera music. Thousands of local and international tourists see that characterization and believe it’s what “Mexicans” must be like. No proud Aztec? No Mayans? No Toltecs? I don’t think I’ve ever come across a guy in a sombrero and sarape in everyday life. Come to think about it, though, Legoland doesn’t have Danish characters wearing wooden shoes and eating bacon rolls to depict their proud heritage of Denmark. That wouldn’t be nice. We may laugh off these costumes as harmless fun but to young kids the message is that mocking someone’s culture is acceptable. We live in a more internationally interconnected world than ever before. On any given day, we see or interact with people from other countries and continents, whether they’re our neighbors or visitors enjoying sunny San Diego. Our American melting pot is now the most blended it’s ever been. We should celebrate that diversity that includes not only our own Latino cultures, but many others cultures that may seem as foreign to us as ours surely does to them. The most recent census report this July confirmed that California is now a majority minority state. The Latino population has surpassed the white population and the numbers are expected to keep growing further apart. But we must remember that just as Latinos were one of many minority groups complaining about unfair treatment and biases in the past, we can’t now fall into the trap of the tyranny of the majority. We cannot see ourselves as being in a different situation than other races and ethnic groups. We must protect each other in order to protect ourselves. The world changes too quickly to assume that Latinos will be largest ethnic group forever. Instead, let’s teach our children that we must respect all cultures, including our own diverse Latino cultures, from attack from others, and also from ourselves. Latinos are represented in every job, career, and industry (except the White House, so far) so we shouldn’t allow the media, or worse our own community, to depict us in any way that dismisses us as less than any other. The next time we see a stereotypical characterization of Latinos and other group, let’s not laugh it off. Let’s respect ourselves and others enough to instead work to end mainstream bigotry, not promote it. Happy Halloween and Día de los Muertos. El libro “Los Otros Dreamers” sale al mercado para concientizar POR MARÍA GONZÁLEZ AMARILLO El pasado lunes 26 de octubre tuvo lugar la presentación del libro “Los Otros Dreamers” (Los Otros Soñadores) en la Universidad de San Diego. El objetivo del tomo es mostrar la realidad de los jóvenes mexicanos que emigraron a Estados Unidos por decisión familiar y que vieron sus vidas limitadas a raíz de estar indocumentados tanto en el país norteamericano como de vuelta en México, sintiendo consecuentemente una frustrante falta de pertenencia a ninguna parte. “Este libro ayudará a reconocer la dignidad que caracteriza a cada uno de nosotros a través de la perspectiva única de estos dreamers en busca de sí mismos”, declaró la asistente del rector de la universidad, Cynthia Villis, en la introducción del evento. “La Universidad de San Diego tiene una extensa historia de colaboración con México, y con esta publicación veremos las historias de aquellos que fueron deportados o impulsados a irse del país”, pronunció a su vez el vicerrector de la USD, Thomas Herrinton. El proyecto se ha podido lanzar gracias a la colaboración conjunta de la Dirección General de Protección a Mexicanos en el Exterior, el Instituto de los Mexicanos en el Exterior (IME), la US-Mexico Foundation y la Iniciativa Ciudadana para la Promoción de la Cultura del Diálogo A. C., junto con la labor de investigación y editorial de Jill Anderson y la labor fotográfica de Nin Solís, autoras del libro. “Seré breve porque lo que importa hoy es escuchar las historias de los dreamers”, dijo la directora de US-Mexico Foundation, Rebeca Vargas, vía Skype durante la presentación. “Ellos representan la relación entre ambos países, Estados Unidos y México. Son una población única que colabora en el desarrollo del entendimiento binacional y en eso consiste nuestra organización, desde donde implementamos variados programas para apoyar a estos dreamers.” Entre otras intervenciones, en el evento se contó con la presencia de una de las autoras del libro, Jill Anderson; con la Cónsul General de México en San Diego, Remedios Gómez Arnau; y con dos de Los Otros Dreamers, Juan Santiago y Maggie Laredo, quienes ofrecieron sus historias personales a la audi- encia, esparciendo un profundo halo de empatía y emotividad a lo largo de la sala. “La inmigración es dinámica y cambia a causa de las diferentes circunstancias”, afirmó la Cónsul en un breve discurso. “Ahora debemos contar las historias de los jóvenes que necesitaban volver a México. Creo sinceramente que estos dreamers son un importante puente porque vivieron aquí, hablan inglés y ahora están en el país de sus padres. Su experiencia puede traer mucha luz para responder mejor a este fenómeno.” El libro está dividido en 26 testimonios acompañados de imágenes y traducidos al inglés y al español. Se puede encontrar en Amazon a un precio de $25.00. El dinero recaudado se destinará a seguir apoyando a los jóvenes mexicanos sumidos en esta angustiosa situación de cara a agilizar su adaptación por medio del pago del procesamiento de sus visados y pasaportes, entre otras necesidades. “Llevo viviendo en México 9 años y me siento cada vez más como una persona binacional”, explicó la co-autora Jill Anderson. “Quería ver los retos y los aspectos positivos de ambos países y quedé alucinada cuando contacté con gente joven de México que fueron deportados o decidieron volver. Hablaban de su idealismo al pensar en volver a México y cómo se encontraron con una realidad muy distinta. Así que hicimos una campaña de crowdfunding (financiamiento colectivo) para la investigación y Nin Solís recorrió todo México para hacer fotografías de ellos y de sus comunidades.” Según la escritora, utilizó el concepto “Los Otros Dreamers” porque los 26 protagonistas del libro, y todos los que sufren esta situación, son “del otro lado”. Varios de ellos ofrecen historias especialmente impactantes debido a su paso por el proceso de deportación e incluso por la cárcel, vivencias que dificultan en extremo su integración posterior y la obtención de nuevos visas por crear desconfianza. “Estos jóvenes decidieron volver a pesar de los consejos de sus familias para poder estudiar, encontrar un trabajo y oportunidades, pero no era tan fácil como esperaban. Es un auténtico choque cultural, un trauma y un verdadero desafío el conseguir la documentación para poder alquilar una vivienda, convalidar sus estudios y hacer todo tipo de transacciones”, denunció la co-autora. Jill Anderson constató que su objetivo principal era comunicar los derechos en ambos territorios de las personas afectadas por este problema y valoró la riqueza de contar con una diversidad de voces para mostrar una dura realidad desconocida a este lado de la frontera. “Mi enfoque está en dar visibilidad a los dreamers indígenas”, relató Juan Santiago, uno de los dreamers, de padres indígenas. “Soy de Fresno y aprecio mucho la labor de Obama, que me permitió ir a ver a mi familia a México. Yo vine con mis padres, no por voluntad propia. Lo arriesgamos todo y lo conseguimos cuando mucha gente muere intentando cruzar.” “Fui al colegio y me dije: esto es, necesito educarme”, prosiguió Santiago. “Veo muchas necesidades en la comunidad latina pero muchas más en las indígenas. Yo hablo zapoteco, no puedo comunicarme con todos ellos, ¡en México se hablan unas 80 lenguas! Con proyectos como este, podemos dar un paso hacia delante para conseguir protección legal.” Asimismo, el testimonio de la dreamer Maggie Laredo conmovió los corazones del público. “Mis padres me trajeron y pensaba que era como mis amigos pero pronto me di cuenta de que no podía conducir, ni tener un trabajo de medio tiempo, ni solicitar apoyos escolares. Entonces, decidí volver a México para estudiar. Me dijeron que solo haría falta hacer el traslado de expediente. Pero llegué allí y no me aceptaron mi identificación. Tampoco podía abrir una cuenta en el banco. Era una indocumentada también en México. Cinco años he tardado en poder estudiar”, contó Laredo, escapándosele algunas lágrimas. “Conocí a mucha gente con problemas de inmigración, pero gracias a Jill Anderson supe de otras personas en mi misma situación y ahora varios de ellos son mis mejores amigos”, se repuso Laredo. “Este maravilloso libro me cambió la vida. Hoy estoy aquí no solo para contar mi historia sino porque muchos otros dreamers siguen luchando en México. Han sido deportados, tienen a sus familias aquí y no pueden solicitar visas. Yo tengo este privilegio ahora y siento la responsabilidad de hablar de ellos y no olvidarles. Con Internet todos podemos conectarnos y hacer algo, no solo decir “oh, muy bien, buena historia” y no actuar.” La Prensa San Diego is published weekly and distributed throughout San Diego County.

The Project SWELL partners invite fifth grade teachers to an upcoming training to learn the new curriculum, which includes lesson plans, interactive presentations and activities to teach their students about San Diego’s water. The professional development training will take place on Saturday, November 7, 2015, from 9 a.m. to noon at the North City Water Reclamation Plant, 4949 Eastgate Mall. In addition to learning each lesson and practicing the activities, teachers will hear about the Pure Water program and take a tour of the City’s onemillion-gallon-per-day demonstration Advanced Water Purification Facility. Project SWELL (Stewardship: Water Education for Lifelong Leadership), a partnership between San Diego Coastkeeper, Think Blue San Diego and SDUSD, promotes environmental stewardship among San Diego youth, while enhancing educational opportunities for local students and providing resources for teachers. All lessons incorporate Next Generation Science Standards and Common Core State Standards. In addition to the Pure Water lesson, the fifth grade curriculum includes lessons about San Diego’s water supply sources, water conservation, storm drains and wastewater treatment.

Even though there is no draft today, there is a need to be ready in case a national emergency requires Selective Service to provide additional personnel to augment our volunteer U.S. Armed Forces. Local board members are citizen volunteers appointed by the Director of the Selective Service System, on behalf of the U.S. President, on recommendations made by their respective state governors or an equivalent public official. If a military draft becomes necessary, approximately 2,000 local boards throughout the country would decide who among the young men in their community will receive deferments, postponements, or exemptions from military service, based on federal guidelines. To qualify you must be a US citizen over 18 and not a retired member of the Armed Forces.

St. Paul’s PACE opened in 2008 and has cared for over 1,000 frail and low income seniors, helping them continue to live safely in their homes and in the community. Services provided include: Doctors, Specialists • Primary care, including doctor’s visits and nursing services Wedding of Mr. and Mrs. Ronald Barker Maria and Ronald Barker are Participants of St. Paul’s PACE, a medical program for low income seniors who need support to continue living at home. PACE provides all-inclusive care such as doctors, therapists, medical specialists, medication management, day center and activities, home care, meals and even transportation. Maria (65 years of age) and Ronald (73 years of age) met in the St. Paul’s Day Center and were referred to as “Love Birds”. With a proposal of marriage and a YES from Maria, the staff at St. Paul’s PACE set forth to provide a memorable wedding celebration for this low income couple. Staff provided the wedding dress, suit for Ronald, decorations and flowers. St. Paul’s PACE is providing refreshments and our own Rev. Lisa L. McCullough, M.Div., BCC will perform the service. Staff members will do Maria’s hair and make-up for the happy occasion. Quote from Katrina Soto, St. Paul’s PACE Day Center Supervisor “This is Maria’s first marriage and we wanted to make it extra special for her. Our participants are very low income so the idea of a special dress and flowers were beyond their ability. Here at St. Paul’s we just couldn’t let that happen, so we worked together to make this a very special occasion”. Maria A. Chavarria Barker was born on November 27, 1950 in a small town outside of Mexico City called Ajusco. She has one younger brother that currently resides in Tecate Mexico. Maria decided to move to San Diego in 1978. She worked hard every day as a babysitter until she was blessed to have a child of her own in 1988 by the name of Emanuel Camacho her first and only son. Maria devotedly assisted her mother throughout her life until 2012 when she passed away from cancer. After her mother’s loss Maria felt alone and depressed so in 2013 she took a big step and decided to join PACE looking for a place to meet and befriend new people and help her with her chronic medical conditions. However, she got more out of the PACE than she was expecting, she met Ronald Barker her future husband! Ronald Barker was born in Columbus, Ohio in 1942. He had 9 brothers and 4 sisters and was one of the two sets of twins in his family. He was raised in West Virginia until his father was offered a Supervisor Position at Convair in San Diego in 1950. He was rather adventurous and enjoyed exploring new things throughout his childhood. His professional work consisted of making helicopters for the Vietnam War at Howard Hues and working in hospitals in the Orthopedic Department assembling tractions for the doctors. Ronald was pushed into retirement early in 2002 due to medical and health issues. He was married twice and cared for both his wives until they passed away and he was left widowed. Ronald has 2 daughters, 4 grandchildren, and 4 great grand children. In January 2015 Ronald decided to join PACE in search of new medical plan where he met Maria, his soon-to-be wife.

Contreras, a Mexican national visiting San Diego. CBX will offer short- and long-term parking lots, retail shops, duty-free stores, and complete Customs processing and screening. CBX users will be charged a toll of $15 per crossing, in addition to parking fees. The $120 million CBX facility is a private project developed and operated by Otay Tijuana Venture, LLC, an investment group with US and Mexican shareholders including PAP Corp, PALAREO Inc., and EGI-Otay Investors, with lending from Invex and Bancomext. One of the principal investors of the project is Boston-based billionaire Sam Zell, an international investor who has played a major role in real estate development, energy companies, as well as the Tribune newspaper company. Mr. Zell was on hand to speak at the dinner. The terminal was designed by famed Mexican architect Ricardo Legoretta, known for his use of bright colors, play of light and shadow, and solid Platonic geometric shapes. The buildings also includes quartz quarried in Mexico. COVER STORY PG1 WATER RATES said Watton. The City contends that the system that serves the North and the system that serves the South Bay are one integrated system. They also contend that the South Bay receives credits from two regulatory agencies for its purchase of recycled water and for its distribution system. Watton’s response to the City on these points is emphatic. “The City cannot show anyone where the system that serves the South Bay and the system that serves the North are physically connected – because they aren’t. They have completely separate permits, contracts, costs, and customers.” Watton also notes that the credits it receives are irrelevant to setting fair rates. “Credits that Otay receives for recycled water have nothing to do with setting the City’s water rates. Otay relies on the City only to produce recycled water, and rates for Otay should be set to recover the costs to produce water, not to produce and distribute it. It’s that simple.” Otay has proposed an alternate zone rate based on the costs to serve the South Bay system. Watton notes that zone rates are supported by the American Water Works Association and that the Metropolitan Wastewater Joint Powers Authority, an advisory body of eight cities and several local water districts, voted to support zone rates as the fair and equitable way to set rates in San Diego. The San Diego City Council is expected to vote on the proposed rates on November 17. San Diego Continuing Education Celebrates the Grand Opening of New César E. Chávez Campus THE PROPOSITION S-FUNDED CAMPUS LOCATED IN THE HEART OF BARRIO LOGAN FEATURES CUSTOMIZED LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS FOR HANDS-ON TRAINING IN HEALTHCARE CAREERS, CHILD DEVELOPMENT, AND CISCO. An enthusiastic crowd of over 150 community members, campus faculty, staff and administrators, students, and representatives from the San Diego Community College District (SDCCD) turned out Wednesday to celebrate the grand opening of the District’s new César E. Chávez Campus, serving San Diego Continuing Education. The $58 million dualbuilding project comprises a 67,924-square-foot, threestory facility with a below-grade, 149-car parking structure, and a detached campus car park with 320 additional spaces and covered with murals featuring the life and work of César E. Chávez located two blocks east of the campus. “The new campus is a result of San Diego voters approving bond measures to pay for the new construction of the campus,” said Carlos O. Turner Cortez, President of San Diego Continuing Education. “The architecture is symbolic and far more impressive than anyone could have initially imagined 10 years ago when the planning began. It’s a wonderful example of the positive influence and impact generated from community collaboration.” “The San Diego Community College District is proud to open its new César E. Chávez Campus in Barrio Logan. The campus is dedicated to the memory of the civil rights leader César E. Chávez, and also honors the memory of the iconic restaurant Chuey’s, on whose property the campus was built. A wide range of educational programs will now be available to the community,” said SDCCD Chancellor Constance M. Carroll. The project consists of land acquisition and construction of a new building to consolidate current programs at the original César E. Chávez Campus, which was adjacent to Chicano Park, and the Centre City Campus, which was located downtown across from San Diego City College. The new facility is designated as the Campus of Excellence for Healthcare Careers and houses 22 classrooms, which will be used for vocational training, English as a Second Language (ESL), Citizenship, Adult Basic Education (ABE), high school equivalency preparation classes, Business, Computers and Information Technology, and Parent Education courses. Emeritus classes for ages 55+ will be held at nearby off-campus locations. The new building also includes a multipurpose room, administrative offices, and space for a future Entrepreneurship and Small Business Management Program. Located in the heart of Barrio Logan at 1901 Main Street, the César E.

Maria Nieto Senour, President of the San Diego Community College District Board of Trustees stated, “These facilities are going to create state-of-the-art classrooms and educational experiences, in addition to iconic structures and symbols integrated into the design. We are grateful not only to our voters, but our chancellor, administrators, faculty, staff, students, and community friends who worked toward the passage of these bond measures. We’re going to have programs that are needed by the people of this area, programs that are going to prepare them to get good paying jobs and to create futures for themselves that will not only transform their own lives but the lives of their families.” Architect Joe Martinez of Martinez + Cutri remarked, “The design is a culturallybased aesthetic taken from the indigenous peoples of the Americas and infused with the DNA of the Latino experience in order to inspire upward mobility via education, civic engagement, and a respect for ethnic diversity well into the next millennium.” Elements include: • A small urban village style placita greets the community at the intersection of Main Street and Cesar Chavez Parkway. The façade above the placita features a creative glass abstraction of an Ojo de Dios that symbolically represents the power of seeing and understanding things from different perspectives. • The profile of a threestory Aztec pyramid with its upper temple clad in granite and the logo of the United Farms Workers can be seen on the east side of the campus. • Columns and beams in the lobby and up to the rooftop area mimic the large-scale columns and beams of the Coronado Bay Bridge. On the third floor outdoor terrace, four stainless steel columns with white COVER STORY PG1 HIGHWAY PROJECT our region, which will lead to more jobs,” indicated Ms. Mier y Teran. Every year, the border region loses more than $7 billion and 62,000 jobs due to the long border delays. Wait times for trucks bringing good into the U.S. can be as long as 2-4 hours. This connectors project will also provide links to the planned Otay Mesa East POE via SR-11, with Phase 1 (from SR-905 East to Enrico Fermi Drive) expected to open to traffic by the end of this year. “This project is part of our broader vision for the overall roadway network from Otay East POE. We continue PROJECT SWELL CONTINUED FROM P. 3 the City of San Diego’s phased, multi-year program to use proven water purification technology to provide a safe local drinking water supply for San Diego. The program will produce one-third of San Diego’s drinking water supply locally by 2035. The Pure Water lesson will guide teachers through a presentation that includes vocabulary, water cycle diagrams, videos about the water purification process and interviews with program acrylic tops directly next to the metal red wall and the blue sky stand in reverence to the four colossal Toltec statues in Tula, Mexico. • Reflective ceiling panels above the two-story lobby depict key words and ideas of indigenous peoples as well as important places such as Machu Picchu, Teotihuacan, and Chaco Canyon. • The Big Book in the lobby is made from burled cherry wood and holds a biography of César E. Chávez, a Latino timeline since 1900, and important historical quotes from César E. Chávez and Dolores Huerta. • Chuey’s Student Lounge honors Luis Garcia, Senior, and in particular, Chuey’s Numero Uno, which was a fixture in Barrio Logan since 1956. The Barrio Logan Station trolley stop is directly next to the campus, and bicycle storage and changing rooms are located inside the facility, making the campus easily accessible via public and green modes of transportation. Members of César E. Chávez’s family participated in the program and ceremonial ribbon cutting to dedicate the building. Paul F. Chavez, President and CEO of the Chavez Foundation and son of César E. Chávez quoted his father and said, “…you cannot uneducate the person who has learned to read, you cannot humiliate the person who feels pride, you cannot oppress the person who is not afraid anymore – we’ve seen the future, and the future is ours.” The $1.555 billion Propositions S and N construction bond program is providing new state-ofthe-art teaching and learning facilities, major renovations, and campuswide infrastructure projects at City, Mesa and Miramar colleges and six Continuing Education campuses throughout San Diego.

Over the past 20 years, trade between the U.S. and Mexico has grown by an average of ten percent each year, a rate that exceeds that of U.S. trade with the rest of the world, according to data provided by SANDAG. In 2014, more than 800,000 northbound trucks and $39 billion in goods crossed the border through the Otay Mesa Cargo Port of Entry. “This is an important trade corridor, and together we are moving forward toward our vision for a safe, secure, efficient, and integrated transportation system that will bolster the economy on both sides of the border”, shared Laurie Berman, Director of Caltrans District 11. The connectors project for the three state highways is estimated to cost $21.5 million and is expected to be completed in late 2016. La Prensa www.LaPrensaSD.com | OCTOBER 30 2015 | PAGE 5 ESPAÑOL EL AUTENTICO PERIODICO LATINO COMUNITARIO DE SAN DIEGO | www.LaPrensaSD.com | Vol. 39 | No. 50 | OCTUBRE 30, 2015 Líderes del Sur y el Este del Condado Luchan Contra las Tarifas de Consumo de Agua que Propone San Diego POR SANDRA G. LEON A nadie nos gusta pagar de más, y una coalición de líderes está combatiendo una propuesta del Municipio de San Diego que ocasionaría que, en el transcurso de los próximos seis años, se le cobren 7.2 millones de dólares de más a los habitantes de la zona South Bay y el este del condado por el suministro de agua reciclada. Sostienen que las tarifas que propone San Diego cobrarían de más a usuarios en Otay a fin de cobrarles de menos a usuarios de agua reciclada en la zona norte de la ciudad. Entre dichos líderes se encuentran Greg Cox y Diane Jacob, Supervisores del Condado; David Álvarez, Regidor Municipal de San Diego; Mary Casillas, Alcaldesa de Chula Vista y su Cabildo; Ben Hueso, Senador del Estado; el Consejo de Administración de Southwestern College; y diez cámaras de comercio y asociaciones empresariales de la localidad. Afirman que las tarifas por consumo de agua en la zona South Bay deben basarse en los costos para brindar el servicio a las comunidades de South Bay, y no en los costos para brindar el servicio a usuarios al norte de la ciudad, quienes lo reciben a través de un sistema distinto y físicamente independiente que no tiene conexión alguna con el sistema que suministra a las comunidades de South Bay y ciertas secciones en este del condado. En la zona South Bay y comunidades aledañas en el este del condado, el agua reciclada se utiliza para la irrigación de áreas verdes en banquetas y camellones, áreas administradas por asociaciones de vecinos, parques, campos de golf y otras áreas públicas. El agua para dichos usuarios la suministra el distrito hídrico Otay Water District, el cual adquiere el 99% del agua reciclada que se genera en la Planta Municipal de Recuperación de Agua South Bay en el valle del Rio Tijuana. El distrito Otay distribuye dicho líquido mediante una red de distribución con un valor de 200 millones de dólares que ésta misma construyó, opera y de la cual es propietaria. Según el análisis de costo realizado por el Municipio de San Diego, la tarifa para suministrar a las comunidades de South Bay se basa exclusivamente en el costo de producción del agua reciclada, el cual es de $1.14 por cada cien pies cúbicos de agua (hcf ). No se incluyen costos de distribución en virtud de que el distrito hídrico Otay es propietario de su propio sistema de distribución. De manera independiente, el análisis estima que el costo de producción y distribución de agua reciclada para usuarios en el norte del condado es de $2.14 hcf. Estos usuarios dependen de San Diego tanto para la producción de agua reciclada para usuarios en el norte del condado es de $2.14 hcf. Estos usuarios dependen de San Diego tanto para la producción como para su distribución mediante la red de suministro propiedad del Municipio. El Municipio propone contar con una tarifa única que combine los costos tanto de South Bay como del norte de la ciudad para crear una tarifa de $1.73 por hcf – superior al costo para suministrar a South Bay y menor que el costo para brindar el servicio al norte de la ciudad. “Las tarifas que propone el Municipio son desiguales e injustas para nuestros usuarios,” expresó Mark en el pasado, pues en el presente las autoridades no dan solución plena a su problemática, y más bien se asiste a una prolongación de la deuda histórica, al extender este problema por más de 15 años. “El tiempo pasa, y no te puedo olvidar, dice la canción. Pero con el gobierno es al revés yo creo: ‘El tiempo pasa y sí los quiero olvidar; ¡para que se mueran más!’”, sentenció Germán Rubio, voluntario de la lucha de ex braceros en Sinaloa, aseverando que las autoridades Por parte de la autoridad hace falta mayor concientización y sensibilización, mientras que en las familias más integración y tiempo de calidad con los hijos. Esta ciudad figura dentro de los 14 puntos con mayor índice de trata de personas en el país, un tema considerado como grave al que le falta atención y concientización por parte de la autoridad y a nivel familiar. Invitada a la Sesión Ordinaria de la Barra de Abogadas “Lic. María Sandoval de Zarco A.C.” que preside la Lic. Ana Erika Santana González, la escritora Gilda Salinas, autora del libro “Ananké, Cuerpos en Venta”, habló de la realidad que sigue afectando a mujeres y menores de edad. Particularmente su libro, detalla la historia de una joven explotada sexualmente por casi un año por un grupo de proxenetas, del cual logra escapar y ser recatada, al hacer su declaración ante la Fiscalía de Delitos Sexuales recuerda lo que vivió, con miedo a represalias en contra de ella y su familia. El caso real fue tomado de la Ciudad de México, sin embargo, Tijuana fue una de las ciudades en las que fue utilizada con fines sexuales por su captores, por ello la necesidad de sensibilizar al respecto, sobre un tema presente y grave, expresó. Gilda Salinas subrayó la importancia de sensibilizar a las personas jóvenes como hijos, hermanos, nietos, hombres y mujeres, ya que a edades tempranas todos quedan expuestos a proxenetas mediante el uso de redes sociales. De ahí que recomendó cuidar y vigilar lo que hacen los niños y jóvenes en internet, que es donde son presas de estos delitos por el alto índice de espionaje de los proxenetas. CONTINUA EN LA PAGINA 9 CONTINUA EN LA PAGINA 9 CONTINUA EN LA PAGINA 7 Adultos mayores mexicanos en busca de dignidad POR ABEL ASTORGA MORALES Actualmente en México gran número de adultos mayores se enfrentan a difíciles condiciones de supervivencia, sufren la desatención de las autoridades e incluso la exclusión de sus familiares. Nueve por ciento de la población total en el país es adulta mayor (60 años o más); de ésta, 9.7 por ciento son hombres y 12.6 mujeres. Según un informe del Consejo Nacional de Población (Conapo), en México hay 10.5 millones de personas mayores, de los cuales, el 82 por ciento vive algún grado de pobreza, ya sea monetaria o alimentaria; mientras que el 43 por ciento se encuentran en situación de pobreza multidimensional, es decir, un escenario en el que la persona presenta carencia de al menos uno de sus derechos relacionados con el desarrollo social, y además sus ingresos son insuficientes para adquirir los bienes y servicios que requiere para satisfacer sus necesidades. Según el Instituto Nacional de Estadística y Geografía (INEGI), México asiste a proceso de envejecimiento de su población, el cual se hizo evidente a partir de la última década del siglo pasado. Pero no sólo en México sino en general a nivel mundial, a partir de la segunda mitad del siglo XX, debido al aumento del nivel de la sobrevivencia de la población, este sector de la población muestra una tendencia a incrementarse. Los ex braceros mexicanos son un grupo poblacional que ejemplifica en buena medida las precariedades a las que se enfrenta este sector social. Se trata de los viejos ex migrantes que desde 1998 hasta la fecha, se manifiestan en México y Estados Unidos tratando de recuperar un dinero que se les despojó mientras laboraron en el Programa Bracero activo de 1942 a 1964. Durante 15 años de lucha, de diálogo con las autoridades, de la creación de leyes que supuestamente les beneficiarían, lo que han encontrado más bien es desatención, menosprecio de las autoridades, y exclusión por tratarse de personas en condición de vejez y pobreza. De nada sirvió -comentan los ex braceros- ‘quebrarse el lomo’ en el field estadounidense, soportar trabajos extenuantes y discriminación TIJUANA ENTRE LOS PRINCIPALES PUNTOS DE TRATA DE PERSONAS Proyecto de autopista aliviará el tráfico en la frontera POR ALEXANDRA MENDOZA Un nuevo proyecto de autopista en Otay Mesa busca aliviar el tráfico tanto de vehículos como de camiones que cruzan de México hacia Estados Unidos. Esta semana, la Asociación de Gobiernos de San Diego (SANDAG) inició la construcción de un conector vial que permitirá unir la ruta SR-905 y la futura SR-11 con la autopista SR-125 en dirección hacia el norte. Actualmente, vehículos y camiones que transitan por Otay Mesa deben ingresar a calles aledañas y lidiar con tráfico para tener acceso a la SR-125. Con este proyecto, se contará con un sistema de autopista que hará la conexión de manera directa, lo que será aprovechado por miles de personas que ingresan al país por la zona este del Condado. De esta manera, autoridades buscan impulsar el crecimiento económico de la región, ante las pérdidas que representan las demoras para ingresar a Estados Unidos. “El tiempo es dinero y cualquier chofer de camión coincide con ello”, señaló Alejandra Mier y Terán, directora de la Cámara de Comercio de Otay Mesa. “Lo escuchamos de empresas de manufactura y de grupos comerciales, su mayor preocupación son los costos de logística”. Mier y Terán anticipó que al agilizar el comercio, más compañías pondrán sus ojos en la región lo que conllevará a una mayor generación de empleos. Cada año, la región fronteriza pierde más de 7 mil millones de dólares y 62 mil empleos a consecuencia de los altos tiempos de espera. En ocasiones, camiones que transportan mercancía a Estados Unidos deben esperar entre dos y cuatro horas. Aunado a ello, este segmento también se conectará con la ya anunciada segunda garita de Otay Mesa a través de la SR-11 cuya primera fase (de la SR-905 a Enrico Fermi Drive) quedará lista a finales de este año. “Este proyecto es parte de nuestra visión integral a la garita de Otay II, entonces nosotros seguimos adelante con ese proyecto, ya estamos en negociaciones de adquisición de predios y en pláticas con el gobierno mexicano”, dijo Mario Orso, director de proyectos intermodales del Departamento de Transporte de California, al referirse a los avances de este nuevo puerto de entrada. Se estima que en los últimos 20 años, el comercio entre México y Estados Unidos ha crecido en un 10 por ciento cada año, un ritmo que sobrepasa el crecimiento comercial que tiene EE.UU. con el resto del mundo, señalan datos proporcionados por SANDAG. En 2014, más de 800 mil camiones cruzaron la frontera a través de la garita comercial de Otay Mesa, lo que representa un flujo de mercancías valuada en más de 39 mil millones de dólares. “Este es un importante corredor comercial y juntos avanzamos para alcanzar nuestra visión de un sistema de transporte seguro, eficiente e integrado que impulse la economía en ambos lados de la frontera”, comentó Laurie Berman, directora de Caltrans Distrito 11. El proyecto que conectará las tres rutas estatales tendrá un costo de 21.5 millones de dólares y estaría listo a finales de 2016.

In addition to Seoul Searching, the 16th San Diego Asian Film Festival offers Latinos a diversity of films where they can learn more about Asian culture, something that is closer to home than Latinos might think, said Brian Hu, artistic director of Pacific Arts Movement, the organization behind the film festival. “Latinos and Asians in the United States are probably the most similar in terms of values (food, family, and culture are ever-important) and entertainment (we regularly consume non-English film and TV, and we love our stars and melodrama),” he said. “The San Diego Asian Film Festival always welcomes the opportunity to share its programming with its Latino neighbors because we truly believe that as the future face of San Diego, we must embrace our similarities and shared values.” Actor Esteban Ahn, featured in Seoul Searching PURCHASE YOUR TICKETS NOW Online: chulavistaballet.org $22 general admission if purchased in advance and $27 at the door.

New York City Ballet MOVES makes its La Jolla Music Society debut at San Diego Civic Theatre on Friday, October 30 at 8 pm performing works selected from the Company’s vast repertoire PAUL KOLNIK I n the film Seoul Searching, Esteban Ahn portrays a Korean-Mexican teen. Ahn had no problem relating to his character, since Ahn is an actor and musician of Korean descent who grew up in the Canary Islands, Spain. That fusion between Korean and Latino culture helped Ahn relate to his character in Seoul Searching, which screens Nov. 8th as part of the 16th San Diego Asian Film Festival, which runs from Nov. 5-14, at the UltraStar Mission Valley. “I was able to identify with the character because he looks Korean but since he grew up in Mexico, he feels closer to Latino culture than to Korean customs,” Ahn said from South Korea. “When I got this part, I thought how this character has experience many of the same things I experienced as a teenager.” Seoul Searching, in English and Korean, with English subtitles, is all about finding your identity, your place in society, even when you come from a different culture. It specifically tells the stories of several Korean-American teenagers who meet at a summer camp. It is there that the character of Sergio, a Mexi-Korean teen portrayed by Ahn, accepts his Korean roots. Ahnelhuayoxochitl – Flor sin raiz: Nov. 7.

El proyecto se llevó a cabo gracias a su colaboración conjunta con la directora del museo, Leah Goodwin; la directora de programa del museo, Stella Karl; y el cordinador de educación, Christian Vega. “Queríamos enseñar imágenes asociadas con los indígenas de México, así como áreas celebrando El Día de Los Muertos y cómo otros compañeros recuerdan a sus ancestros”, explica Avalos. “Y mostrar cómo esta festividad encarna la idea del homenaje a los antepasados y cómo la iconografía pasa de ser arte popular a arte de museo.” Si bien la exposición habitualmente tiene un costo de $8, sus puertas se abrirán al público de forma gratuita durante la celebración del Festival Comunitario Anual del Día de Los Muertos, que cumple su 20 aniversario y que tendrá lugar en el mismo California Center for the Arts el 1 de noviembre de 6 pm a 9 pm. “Como cultura de seres humanos, debemos considerar de dónde venimos”, constata la directora del museo, Leah Goodwin. “Creo que nos hacemos más fuertes a través del conocimiento de nuestros ancestros y es apropiado desarrollar actos de celebración para ellos.” “¡Esta exposición considera a tantos antepasados y diferentes partes del mundo!”, añade a su vez la directora de programa, Stella Karl. “Da a entender que no solo podemos aprender de nuestra propia historia sino de la combi- LUCHAN CONTRA LAS TARIFAS CONTINUACION DE P. 5 nación de muchas culturas y sus luchas y procesos de adaptación.” Las obras, algunas existentes previo a la exposición y otras creadas específicamente para ella, han sido desarrolladas con todo tipo de elementos: cristal, papel maché, madera, distintos materiales mezclados, pintura. Algunos artistas incluso construyeron altares para personas que han perdido. “Están representadas culturas indígenas pero también la chicana, anglosajona, africano-americana. Un artista en particular quiere recordar que el comienzo de los africanos no sucedió en la esclavitud sino en la realeza. Una historia muy interesante”, comenta la directora de programa. El festival ofrecerá las actuaciones de Son de San Diego y las Mariachi Divinas junto con una representación de ballet folklórico de la Academia de Artes Tierra Caliente. Asimismo, se invitará a los miembros de la comunidad a participar en la celebración a través de la creación de sus propias ofrendas o altares en honor a sus seres queridos. “Hace veinte años el artista Eloy Tarcisio construyó una instalación, ofreciendo un espacio en el que la gente puede hacer una ofrenda para quien quieran, para lo que traen objetos relacionados con la vida de ese ser querido. Esta actividad atrae a cientos de personas. La última vez reunimos 175 altares hechos por la gente”, cuenta Karl. “Traen las cosas favoritas de sus seres queridos”, detalla a su vez la directora del museo. “Bebidas, comida, fotocopias de fotografías. Nosotros recogemos todas las ofrendas, las guardamos y al cabo de diez años Eloy fabrica su altar con todas las cosas dejadas.” El museo colabora con el Consulado de México en San Diego a menudo y ha contribuido activamente a la celebración del Día de los Muertos por medio de varias exposiciones a lo largo de los últimos años, convirtiéndose en eventos muy populares en los que la gente realmente conecta con sus fallecidos. La institución también se esfuerza por integrar a los más jóvenes. “Con cada exposición ofrecemos una sección de trabajos de alumnos pertenecientes a colegios de la zona, desde centros de educación primaria hasta la preparatoria, enfocándonos principalmente en el área de Escondido”, cuenta Goodwin. “Es parte de nuestra misión el apoyarles, y ellos cuentan historias fascinantes y se meten en el tema de verdad”. Como mensaje personal, la directora anima al público a acercarse al museo. “Tenemos exposiciones únicas, conferencias, actividades gratuitas para niños el segundo sábado de cada mes. ¡Y el estacionamiento es gratuito!”, sonríe. “Que piensen en nosotros como un lugar al que pueden traer a sus niños.” Para más información acerca del festival visite artcenter.org/ event/dia-de-los-muertosfestival <http://artcenter.org/ event/dia-de-los-muertosfestival> y sobre la exposición en http://artcenter.org/event/ re-membering-our-ancestorsdiscoveringourselves/2015-10-10/. Watton, Gerente General del distrito hídrico Otay Water District. “Si el Municipio necesitara aumentar sus tarifas para cubrir costos, estaríamos de acuerdo, pero en este caso se trata de una intención deliberada de obligar a nuestros usuarios en las comunidades de la zona South Bay y del este del condado a cubrir el costo de la red en el norte de la ciudad a fin de subsidiar tanto al Municipio de San Diego como a usuarios en el norte de la ciudad.” La coalición resalta que de las 600 cuentas de agua reciclada el norte de la ciudad, 100 se tratan de cuentas del Municipio de San Diego para irrigación de campos de golf, parques y otros usos extramuros. “representa un inherente conflicto de intereses el que el Municipio establezca tarifas que le beneficien a sí mismo a costas de terceros,” indicó Watton. El Municipio argumenta que la red que suministra a la parte norte y la red que suministra a las comunidades de South Bay forman parte de un mismo sistema integral. Asimismo argumenta que South Bay recibe créditos de dos dependencias normativas por su adquisición de agua reciclada y por su red de distribución. La respuesta de Watton al Municipio respecto de estos puntos es enfática: “El Municipio no tiene forma de mostrarle a nadie el punto en el que la red que suministra a South Bay y la red que suministra al norte [de la ciudad] se conectan físicamente – porque no existe tal. Tienen permisos, contratos, costos y usuarios completamente independientes.” Watton además destaca que los créditos que reciben son irrelevantes en materia de establecimiento de tarifas justas. “Los créditos que recibe Otay por concepto de su uso de agua reciclada no tienen nada que ver con el establecimiento de tarifas por parte del Municipio. Otay depende del Municipio exclusivamente para la producción del agua reciclada, y la tarifa para Otay debe establecerse con el fin de recuperar el costo de producción del líquido, no por su producción y distribución. Es así de sencillo.” Otay ahora propone una tarifa alterna por zona basada en los costos para brindar el servicio a la red de South Bay. Watton resalta que la tarificación por zonas cuenta con el aval de la Asociación Estadounidense de Obras Hidráulicas (American Water Works Association) y que la Autoridad Metropolitana de Facultad Conjunta en Materia de Aguas Residuales (Metropolitan Wastewater Joint Powers Authority) – un organismo asesor de ocho municipios y varios organismos operadores locales – votó en apoyo de tarificación por zona como la manera justa y equitativa de establecer tarifas en San Diego. Se anticipa que el Cabildo Municipal de San Diego votará el 17 de noviembre sobre el tema de las tarifas propuestas.

PAGE 8 | OCTOBER 30 2015 | www.LaPrensaSD.com DEPORTES VS VS VIERNES 30, 7:30 PM PT SUNDAY 1 10:00 AM PT ESTADIO CALIENTE XOLOS ESTÁ FUERA Guest Column CHARGER SEASON OVER…NOT QUITE BY HECTOR PADILLA JR. The San Diego Chargers find themselves with a 2-5 record after a loss Sunday to the Oakland Raiders. In the week leading up to the game, the Chargers indicated that they will file for relocation in January to move to Los Angeles. This was an expected move by the Chargers with the Rams and Raiders expected to join them. Does this mean the Chargers are moving? Does anyone really know the answer to that question? On Wednesday, October 28, the NFL had a town hall meeting in San Diego that was very tense and had plenty of emotion. All over San Diego, people want to know whether the Chargers are staying or going. Since the answer will not be coming any time soon, maybe we should stop thinking about the stadium so much and focus more on our team trying to win football games and having a successful season. If they do leave, do we want the last year spent talking about the stadium and possible relocation? It seems we have stopped doing what we do best, which is be fans of our football team. Now is the time to cheer this team on every game, every snap, until the very end. However difficult it may be to keep the Chargers, it is just as difficult for them to relocate to Los Angeles. So many things have to happen. Let’s get back to focusing on the Bolts. Many have forgotten that the team is still playing but they have written them off. Yes, the Chargers are off to a slow start but every Philip Rivers quarterbacked team has started below .500 with the exception of the 2014 team that started 5-1. In 8 seasons as the Chargers quarterback, starting with losing records 7 times, the Chargers have finished the season below .500 only once in 2012 with a 7-9 record. Every other year Philip Rivers has finished 8-8 or better. Our quarterback is a gamer! This year he is on pace to break two records in completions and passing yards. History tells us Philip Rivers will somehow get this team back into the playoff race. There are three undefeated division leaders and that leaves two wildcard (playoff) spots open. Only two teams, the Jets and Steelers, have a record over .500. The Chargers are not out of this thing at all. Come Sunday, let’s forget about all the negative talk and be the fans that we know we can be. If anyone can get this team on a roll, it is Philip Rivers. We can start things off with a victory in Baltimore. The Chargers have played two of the leagues undefeated teams and battled to the very end on the road and were 6 inches from beating the Steelers at home. Things are not looking so good now but there is still plenty of football to be played. One key will be getting Melvin Gordon, our first round pick, the ball and some holes to run through. A balanced offense will help the team, including the defense, because running the ball means more time for them to rest before coming back into the game. Things do not look good now, but have they ever in the last eight years? Somehow, CONTINUED ON PAGE 9 Águilas buscan espantar a Diablos AMERICA VA A LA CASA DE TOLUCA EN BUSCA DE SU BOLETO A LA LIGUILLA; XOLOS YA PIENSA EN LA PROXIMA TEMPORADA POR LEON BRAVO U na sola palabra le bastó al entrenador de las Águilas del América para expresar su sentimiento ante la derrota de la jornada pasada ente el Querétaro. “Encab…, así me siento”, dijo Nacho Ambriz, quien el domingo espera conseguir el boleto a la Liguilla en la visita de su equipo al estadio de Toluca. El duelo entre las Águilas y los Diablos Rojos aparece como el más interesante en la jornada 15 del Torneo Apertura 2015. El tropiezo ante Querétaro en el Estadio Azteca dejó al equipo azulcrema en el tercer puesto de la tabla general con 23 puntos. “Tenemos que conseguir el pase a la Liguilla lo antes posible para estar tranquilo. Toluca es muy buen equipo pero no podemos darnos el lujo de seguir perdiendo puntos”, comentó Ambriz. El rival en turno del América pasa por un gran momento al ser el segundo lugar de la clasificación con 26 puntos. En sus últimos siete encuen- tros, los Diablos Rojos suman cuatro victorias, dos empates y una derrota, la que sufrieron la jornada pasada en Veracruz. América y Toluca se han enfrentado 94 veces en su historia y la balanza estadística se inclina en favor de las Águilas que suman 36 triunfos, 27 empates y 31 derrotas. El problema para el cuadro azulcrema es que no gana en el Estadio Nemesio Díez desde el 25 de noviembre de 2012 en que venció 2-1 al los escarlatas en las semifinales del Torneo Apertura. Con la derrota que sufrieron la semana pasada por 3-1 en casa de los Rayados de Monterrey, los Xolos de Tijuana vieron desaparecer sus posibilidades de entrar a la Liguilla Hundidos en el penúltimo lugar de la tabla con apenas 13 puntos, el cuadro fronterizo ya puede comenzar a hacer planes para el próximo torneo. El viernes, Tijuana recibe al súper líder de la competencia, Pumas de la UNAM.

Chargers están cerca del colapso UNA DERROTA EN BALTIMORE PONDRÍA AL EQUIPO DE SAN DIEGO CON POCAS POSIBILIDADES DE ALCANZAR LA POSTEMPORADA POR LEON BRAVO La semana pasada fue terrible para los seguidores de los Chargers. Primero, la directiva del equipo informó que enviará a la NFL la documentación oficial para pedir la reubicación de la franquicia a la ciudad de Los Ángeles. Después, el conjunto de San Diego dio una grotesca exhibición en la derrota que sufrió por 39-27 ante los Raiders de Oakland en el Estadio Qualcomm. La derrota puso la marca de los Chargers en dos triunfos y cinco derrotas para de esa manera descender al sótano de la División Oeste de la Conferencia Americana. El domingo, en su visita a los Ravens de Baltimore, la escuadra sandieguina deberá ponerle freno a su racha de tres tropiezos al hilo si es que quiere salvar la temporada. “Lo que pasó contra los Raiders fue una exhibición muy penosa, debemos trabajar mucho para corregir tantos errores que cometimos”, dijo el entrenador en jefe de los Chargers, Mike McCoy. El estratega del equipo de San Diego afirmó que cuenta con los elementos necesarios para corregir el rumbo del equipo en la presten campaña. “No voy a poner ninguna excusa, tengo jugadores que se entregan al máximo, que tiene la habilidad de jugar, con ellos puedo ganar partidos, no me caba ninguna duda”, dijo McCoy. Los Chargers encontrarán en su duelo del domingo a unos Ravens que también viven momentos de angustia al tener marca de 1-5 y ocupar el último puesto de la División Norte de la Conferencia Americana. Peor aún, Baltimore todavía no gana en su estadio en lo que va de la temporada y buscará que la escuadra de San Diego sea su primera víctima. En los últimos tres enfrentamientos entre estos dos equipos, los Chargers han ganado dos, incluyendo el de la temporada pasada en que se llevó la victoria por 34-33 en la casa de los Ravens.

Más aún, ¿invitarías a trabajar en tu empresa a dos tipos que sabes son mentiroso, tramposos y traidores? Yo soy un fiel creyente de que los seres humanos merecen una segunda oportunidad, de que un error no debe condenar por la eternidad al pecador. El problema es cuando la persona desaprovecha una y otra vez las instancias que se le brindan para rectificar el camino, para limpiar su imagen, para reivindicarse. Alex Rodríguez y Pete Rose son los dos más grandes mentirosos, tramposos y traidores que se hayan puesto el uniforme de un equipo de las Grandes Ligas. En su época de jugador, Rose fue el mejor de todos. Su marca de 4,256 hits lo hace el bateador más grande en la historia de este deporte. Al terminar su carrera, Rose fue nombrado mánager de los Rojos de Cincinnati, equipo con el que construyó su gran leyenda. Ser el piloto de un equipo implica también ser el líder moral de la franquicia, y es ahí donde Rose falló. Al entrar en el mundo de las apuestas como mánager de los Rojos, Rose cometió un sacrilegio. En varias ocasiones se le dio a Rose la oportunidad de que limpiara su nombre diciendo la verdad, confesando que apostó en partidos de beisbol, e inclusive en partidos de su propio equipo. Treinta años después, cuando Rose aceptó todo lo que negó por décadas, ya era demasiado tarde, su imagen de ídolo del beisbol ya estaba destruida. Alex Rodríguez es uno de los mejores peloteros de nuestros tiempos, pero también el más detestable. El tercera base de los Yankees negó por años haber consumido esteroides para mantener su estado físico en condiciones excepcionales. Al igual que Rose, Rodríguez siempre negó las acusaciones en su contra hasta que una investigación federal reveló que el pelotero era cliente asiduo de un laboratorio en Miami donde obtenía sustancias prohibidas. En un movimiento que aún no acabo de entender, la cadena Fox Sports contrató a Rodriguez y a Rose como analistas de los playoffs y la Serie Mundial que están disputando los Mets de Nueva York y los Reales de Kansas City. Cuando en la televisión veo los rostros de Rose y Rodríguez lo primero que me viene a la mente es que ambos traicionaron los preceptos mas importantes de cualquier deporte. Honestidad, justicia, equidad es algo que ni Rose ni Rodríguez tienen como credenciales para tener el derecho de entra a mi casa a hablarme de beisbol. Honestidad, justicia e equidad son requisitos indispensables para poder trabajar en un medio de comunicación. Fox Sports se equivoca rotundamente en darle cabida en sus transmisiones a dos hombres que en su momento no tuvieron la integridad de aceptar sus errores y pedir perdón. El que Rose y Rodriguez ingresen a nuestros hogares solamente depende de nosotros. Yo por lo pronto, ya les negué la entrada. www.LaPrensaSD.com | OCTOBER 30 2015 | PAGE 9 BUSCAN DIGNIDAD mexicanas han mal atendido este problema a lo largo de los años, pues asumen que estos están en el tramo final de la vida, y dentro de poco la muerte podría ayudar a que la deuda con ellos nuevamente caiga en el olvido; de ser así, desde luego se trataría de un actuar perverso del Estado mexicano. Pero aunque el problema de estos veteranos del field no se ha resuelto del todo, destaca como estos colectivos impulsan tanto en México como en Estados Unidos, iniciativas para mejorar las condiciones de vida de los adultos mayores, manifestándose ante las autoridades, y haciéndoles diversas peticiones. En Jalisco, el Centro Jalisciense del adulto Mayor y el Migrante (CJAMM), desde hace años hace lo propio. Gilberto Parra, quien preside este Centro, considera que la situación en México y en Jalisco de las personas adultos mayores es “de abandono, exclusión, marginación, de menosprecio”; no solamente por parte del Estado, también de la sociedad, y hasta de los mismos familiares, “se encuentran en un estado de indefensión absoluta, muchos de ellos viviendo en la indigencia y, en otros casos, el futuro para la inmensa mayoría es la indigencia”. A esto se suma la exclusión laboral, las raquíticas pensiones recibidas, y que en general las políticas públicas de las autoridades solamente atenúan tal situación, pero no la tratan de solucionar de fondo. En Jalisco por ejemplo, se está entregando una pensión económica a 34 mil adultos mayores, sin embargo las autoridades no muestran un padrón confiable de beneficiarios, para corroborar que ¡DIVERSIÓN!

Let’s go to Baltimore and get back on the right track which we always seem to do. If anyone is headed out to Baltimore for the game, here is the Charger organization Bolt Pride’s information on the festivities for Charger fans! Bolts @ Ravens (11/1) Meet & Greet Tailgate Party update: Bolt Pride family is invited to a meet-n-greet party on Saturday, October 31, beginning at 7 pm at Pickles Pub, followed by a tailgate party on Sunday, November 1, beginning at 7:30 am South of Lot H look for the Ravens’ Posse, members of Pro Football’s Ultimate Fan Association. For more info, contact Bolt Pride’s Josh “Road Warrior” Casillas via Facebook. VOICE OF THE FANS Here are Charger fans answer to the question, “Do you think the Chargers can still make a run for the playoffs and why?” Johnny Abundez Hernandez from Save Our Bolts says, “It’s going to be a difficult task but not an impossible one. Better realmente el dinero esté llegando a su destino. Suponiendo sin conceder, que efectivamente los 400 millones de pesos destinados para tal efecto se estén entregando a esas 34 mil personas, este último número representa aproximadamente el 5 por ciento del universo total de adultos mayores en el estado. Sin duda, muchas de los programas de las autoridades mexicanas en favor del adulto mayor, son simulación, retórica. ¿Están entregando el 100 por ciento del recurso?, ¿Están entregando menos?, ¿Hacia qué rumbo se estarían desviando los recursos? ¿Cuál es el destino de los 416 millones de pesos que aprobó el congreso local? El padrón de adultos mayores de la Secretaría de Desarrollo e Integración social contempla únicamente el nombre de la persona, el lugar de residencia y el total de beneficiarios, pero no aparecen domicilios ni números de teléfono, de tal suerte que es inverificable. De ahí las sospechas sobre el desvío de recursos, y en consecuencia la afectación a los adultos mayores. El pasado 5 de octubre integrantes del CJAMM hicieron un plantón frente al Palacio de Gobierno de Jalisco, y entregaron una petición por escrito al gobernador, demandando transparencia en el manejo de tales recursos públicos, y exigiendo además que se asegurara la gratuidad del transporte público urbano para las personas mayores de 65 años del estado, tal como se implementa en el Distrito Federal. Protestas que se suman a las antes realizadas en contra de la privatización del petróleo, de la Reforma Fiscal, o en favor de los migrantes. Asistir a las reuniones y manifestaciones del CJAMM es como una ‘terapia’, comentó Guilermina González de 80 años, pues en su casa constantemente está sola y recibe poca atención de sus familiares. Con el paso de los años, ha crecido el aprecio por los demás ‘viejesitos’, al grado de considerarlos como de su familia. Con lágrimas en los ojos cuenta: “yo no tengo familia, aunque vivo acompañada de una hija y su marido, y tengo seis hijos: vivo sola; soy marginada, despreciada, rechazada… odiada”, al mencionar esta última palabra ríe y llora a la vez, pues como comenta, no puede escapar a esta realidad y trata de tomarlo de la mejor manera (si es que la hay). “Fui padre y madre, los atendí, así que el desprecio es lo peor. Pero estoy en la gloria [‘me siento optimista’] porque sé que hay viejitos en peor situación”… Considera que “en el Distrito Federal los adultos mayores están siendo tratados como ciudadanos de primera, mientras que aquí en Jalisco nos tratan como de quinta”; esto en referencia a que en el Distrito Federal es donde se presentan más avances respecto a la atención a este sector; se entregan tarjetas de pensión alimentaria, se da acceso gratuito al sistema de transporte urbano a los mayores de 60 años, entre otros apoyos. Al día de hoy, mientras que la proporción de jóvenes se reduce desde la década de los noventa, la de adultos mayores se incrementa al representar el 9 por ciento de la población. De acuerdo con la Comisión Económica para América Latina y el Caribe (CEPAL), se espera que para el año 2025 la proporción se incremente a 13.9 por ciento, y en 2050, a 26.5 por ciento. Por lo que, ante el ahondamiento de la desigualdad en México, precarización de la vida, degradación de la democracia y las instituciones, la implementación de políticas neoliberales con oleada privatizadora y generadoras de una desmedida desigualdad social, en el descontento generalizado que se vive, los adultos mayores también alzan la voz, muestran gran convicción por la defensa de los intereses nacionales, e incluso disposición para manifestarse; mostrando así -en muchos casos- una mayor conciencia cívica y disposición a participar en estas luchas, para defender mucho de lo que ellos forjaron cuando jóvenes. Al final de cuentas, la mayoría de las peticiones y manifestaciones de este grupo social están encaminadas a un fin primordial: vivir su vejez con dignidad. personas, es una situación difícil que desafortunadamente se vive en la frontera, es importante que se aplique todo el rigor de la ley a quienes incurran en estos delitos”.
