“Muy orgullosa de serlo”,dijo la mujer, quien seidentificó como Adriana, enuna conferencia de prensaconvocada en la sede de eseorganismo de derechoshumanos para presentar a lanieta recuperada número126.

Abuelas dijo en uncomunicado que la mujer eshija de Violeta Ortolani yEdgardo Garnier, ambosmilitantes del grupoguerrillero Montoneros, yque nació en enero de 1977durante el cautiverio de sumadre.

“La pareja pensaba llamara su bebé Vanesa, si era nena;Marcos o Enrique, si eravarón”, detalló la líder deAbuelas, Estela de Carlotto.

Ryan ha dicho que no vela necesidad de hacer nadaantes de marzo. Ése es elplazo fijado por DonaldTrump al Congreso para queencuentre una soluciónpermanente luego que éldecidió suspender lasprotecciones temporales dedeportación otorgadas porel gobierno de BarackObama, pero losrepresentantes, en una cartaa Ryan, pidieron una prontaacción.

MADRID, 5 XII 17 (AP):Un juez español retiró elmartes las órdenes dedetención europeas quepesaban sobre el cesadoexpresidente de CataluñaCarles Puigdemont y cuatromiembros de su gobiernoque luchaban contra suextradición desde Bélgica.

Un vocero del TribunalSupremo dijo que los cincopueden ser arrestados siregresan a España porque seles busca por delitosrelacionados con laindependencia deCataluña.

El magistrado PabloLlarena dijo que las órdenesde arresto individualeseuropeas no se aplican a undelito cometido como partede un grupo más grande y enque se ha demostrado su“intención de regresar aEspaña” para presentarse alas elecciones que secelebrarán en Cataluña elpróximo 21 de diciembre.

Sin embargo, el abogadobelga de Puigdemont dijoque el líder separatista noplaneaba regresar deinmediato. “Por elmomento, permanecerá enBélgica”, dijo el abogadoPaul Bekaert a la red VTM,y añadió que daba porsentado que finalizaba el

BUENOS AIRES, 7 XII17 (AP): Un juez federalargentino pidió el jueves eldesafuero de la expresidentay actual senadora CristinaFernández por el presuntoencubrimiento de los iraníesacusados del atentado con-

tra un centro judío en 1994.El juez Claudio Bonadío

acusó a la mandataria deldelito de traición a la patria,uno de los más severamentecastigados por la ley.

deben responder a cargos derebelión, sedición ymalversación por sus papelesen un referendo ilegal por laindependencia en octubreque derivó en la declaraciónde independencia por elParlamento regional. Estosdelitos se castigan en Españacon décadas de prisión.

El vocero del tribunalespañol, quien habló bajo lacondición reglamentaria deanonimato, dijo que ladecisión del juez se aplica alas órdenes de arrestoeuropeas e internacionales,no las españolas.

Dos exmiembros delconsejo de ministros,incluido el vicepresidenteOriol Junqueras, y dosactivistas separatistas siguenpresos.

El fallo del martesaparentemente dejaba en elaire la batalla en Bruselaspor la extradición de loscinco catalanes. Se habíaanunciado que habría unadecisión el 14 de diciembre,pero la procuraduría belgadijo que analizaba la nuevasituación.

El juez belga tenía laopción de rechazar el pedidode extradición español,acceder a él o reducir el

número de delitos por loscuales se les podía juzgar.

El juez de la CorteSuprema mencionó esaposibilidad en undocumento emitido elmartes en el cual retiró lasórdenes de arresto. Laresponsabilidad debe sercompartida por todos losacusados, dijo Llarena ensu documento, y añadió quela disminución de cargosprovocaría una“distorsión” con aquellosafectados por lainvestigación en España.

Puigdemont dirige lacampaña de su partido enlas elecciones del 21 dediciembre convocadas porel gobierno español, queintenta hallar una salida ala crisis institucional másgrave del país en casi cuatrodécadas.

La campaña comenzóoficialmente el martes. Lasencuestas pronostican unresultado estrecho entre lospartidarios y adversarios dela independencia, lo quehace prever una situaciónde arduas negociacionespostelectorales para salirdel impasse.

DACA son las siglas eninglés del programa AcciónDiferida para los Llegados enla Infancia (Deferred Actionfor Childhood Arrivals).

Los demócratas hanpresionado reiteradamente poruna solución legislativa,argumentando que esosjóvenes inmigrantes enfrentanun futuro incierto.

Sin embargo, Davisadvirtió que “queremostrabajar con el liderazgo paraelaborar una solución que seaaprobada, no para juegospolíticos ni retener fondos delgobierno, como algunos denuestras contrapartesdemócratas”.

Varios representantesdemócratas han dicho que noapoyarán una importante leypresupuestaria este mes,necesaria para mantenerfuncionando el gobierno, si elasunto no es resuelto.

LANSING, Dec. 7, 2017:A framework to allow indi-viduals with a prior felonyconviction to pursue em-ployment at the MichiganDepartment of Correctionswill be created under legis-lation signed today by Gov.Rick Snyder.

Creating opportunitiesfor previous offenders tohave successful reentry intosociety was one of the keypriorities outlined in Gov.Snyder’s 2015 special mes-sage on criminal justice.

“Reforming our criminaljustice system to better pre-pare those with a previousfelony conviction for theworkforce is important tohelp ensure their successfulreentry into society,” Snydersaid. “This bill calls for thecreation of a framework toconnect these individuals

with employment and skillsthat will help them becomecontributing members ofMichigan’s workforce andeconomy.”

House Bill 4065, spon-sored by state Rep. DavePagel, directs the MichiganDepartment of Corrections(MDOC) to develop a policyto outline investigative pro-cedures that must be imple-mented before hiring an indi-vidual with a felony record toensure offering employmentdoes not impact public safetyor the operation of MDOC.The bill also allows MDOCto hire an individual with afelony record. It is now Pub-lic Act 191 of 2017.

Snyder also signed twoadditional bills:

House Bill 4208, spon-sored by state Rep. AaronMiller, amends Michigan

election law to provide thatthe resignation or removal ofa state senator or representa-tive remain effective for theduration of the unexpiredlegislative term. It is nowPublic Act 192 of 2017.

House Bill 4716, spon-sored by state Rep. PeterLucido, provides that if aparent is convicted understate or federal law of know-ingly performing femalegenital mutilation on a child,or knowingly transportingor facilitating the transportof a child for that purpose,then that conviction consti-tutes grounds for the termi-nation of their parental rightsto the child. It is now PublicAct 193 of 2017.

Unison Health has an-nounced plans to develop Re-covery Housing in the Toledoarea, designed to ensure a con-tinuity of care as they transi-tion from Unison Health’sdetox facilities.

According to UnisonHealth’s President Jeff De Lay,“Too many people leavedetox without a safe place togo. They often end up goingback to the people and placesthey were before, which makesit easier for old habits to re-turn. Recovery Housing pro-

Dec. 7, 2017: Any parentknows how toys seem to magi-cally multiply and take over ahouse. Do children need somany toys?

A team of University ofToledo researchers studiedwhether the number of toys ina toddler’s environment influ-enced their quality of play.Their findings: less is defi-nitely more when it comes tocreative, healthy play.

The results of the studycome just in time for familyand friends who are pickingup holiday gifts for the chil-dren in their lives. The research,which will appear in the Feb-ruary issue of Infant Behaviorand Development, suggeststhat an abundance of toys maycreate a distraction. Fewer newtoys might be a better routethis holiday season.

When toddlers had expo-sure to fewer toys, they playedtwice as long with the toysthey had and in more sophis-ticated ways, said Alexia Metz,the study’s lead investigatorand a UT associate professorof occupational therapy.

As the mother of 12-year-old twins, Metz has personalexperience with the prolifera-tion of toys phenomenon. “Iwas astonished by how muchour home filled up with stuff,”she said. “I wondered whetherthere was any risk to havingthat much stuff.”

Metz said she also hadobserved people worryingwhether their toddlers had at-tention deficit disorder. Tod-dlers, by nature, are distract-ible, but she wonderedwhether their environmentmight be a factor in how theyplayed or how easily dis-tracted they were.

Metz and her team of gradu-ate students studied 36 tod-dlers from 18 to 30 months of

jects, all four years of highschool. She is interested in theUniversity of Michigan, OhioState University, and CaseWestern Reserve University.

Her plan is to pursue medi-cine to become a physician.Her favorite classes at NotreDame have been anatomyand physiology because ofher strong interest in that

field of study.Ms. Yazji has been a

player for the varsity tennisteam for four years and atwo-year captain. She hasbeen a student ambassador,involved in ski club, is apeer tutor for math and Span-ish, and is a member of ThyLoyal Daughters ServiceClub.

“Santa’s Secret Star” willrun Saturdays at 1 p.m. throughDec. 23. The program is gearedtoward children ages 4 to 7 andtells the story of how Santa usesthe constellations to find hisway around the world onChristmas.

“Santa fans of all agesshould attend,” said Alex Mak,associate planetarium director.“These shows are entertaining,educational and seasonal-appropriate.”

Both programs will take

age. The children visitedthe playroom lab twice.On one visit, the chil-dren played in a roomwith just four toys; onthe other, they had ac-cess to 16 toys.

The team chartedhow many times the tod-dler picked up a toy; howlong they played with it;and how many ways theyplayed with it.

“When there werefewer toys, they playedwith them in more ways,”Metz said.

In the 16-toy environ-ment, many of the chil-dren played with 10 ormore toys in the 15 min-utes soon after they en-tered the room. By flitting fromtoy to toy, they didn’t take thetime to explore the ways theycould use each toy, Metz said.

Fewer toys led to “higherquality play,” meaning the tod-dler stuck with the toy for longerand played with it in more cre-ative ways. Instead of stackingor tipping a toy, they began tohammer with it or feed it or hideit. This increased explorationmay support development ofmotor and cognitive skills.

“Today there is the demandto have the latest and greatesttoy that encourages a more tech-nological mind. In this study,we used older toys that encour-aged more creative play andtested the theory of is less reallymore?” said Carly Dauch, whograduated from UT in May fol-lowing the completion of thestudy and is now an occupa-tional therapist at the WoodCounty Board of Developmen-tal Disabilities. “How the chil-dren played supported our hy-pothesis and provides supportfor deeper and richer play withfewer toys.”

Michelle Imwalle and

Brooke Ocasio, who alsograduated in May, were theother graduate students in-volved in the project.

The bottom line for par-ents: “If your child receivesan abundance of toys, youdon’t need to introduce themall at once,” Metz said. “Savesome for later and swap themout. If they have a chance toexplore a few toys at a time,they might have a richerexperience.”

This is also good news forfamilies who may feel guiltyfor not being able to showertheir children with dozens oftoys.

“They’re not deprivingtheir children of an opportu-nity for meaningful play,”Metz said. “This is a less ismore story.”

COLUMBUS, Dec. 6,2017: State Reps. ThomasWest (D-Canton) and DanRamos (D-Lorain) have an-nounced the introductionof House Concurrent Reso-lution (HCR) 18, whichurges Congress, the Fed-eral CommunicationsCommission (FCC), andthe president to upholdexisting net neutralityrules.

The sunlight came inthrough the shades, shakingme from my dream. But as a 6-year-old, that just meant Satur-day morning cartoons. I sprangup and dashed to the livingroom. As I turned on the televi-sion, there he was — a blue-and-red blur flying across thescreen. Soon after, the iconic“S” came into focus: SUPER-MAN. By far, my favorite su-perhero.

I liked him for his abilities.Who wouldn’t? He was super-strong and able to fly. But myconnection was deeper. He wasmore than a hero, he was animmigrant who left his homeand came to the United States.He left everything and adaptedto this new place.

And, best of all, he used thisexperience to become strongerand protect others, standing for“TRUTH, JUSTICE and theAMERICAN WAY.” Leapingfrom couch to couch in paja-mas, I dreamed of one day be-ing able to protect people, too;I dreamed of growing into some-one loved in America.

I outgrew my pajamas, butnever quite outgrew my hun-ger for leadership. That is whyfour years letter my dream wasto become President of theUnited States.

One day, in fourth grade,my teacher opened our civicsclass to talk about the require-ments for the presidency. Therewas no kid more eager. I tookout my notebook and preparedto plan my future. She began bywriting on the board, “Must beat least 35 years of age.” Oneday I’ll be older; check. Next:“Must have lived in the UnitedStates for at least 14 years.” Iwill have lived in the countryfor 31 years by then; check.Finally, “Must be a natural-born citizen of the U.S.”

With that, my world camecrashing down.

My whole life I was told you

MILWAUKEE, Dec. 3,2017 (AP): Charter schoolsare among the nation’s mostsegregated, an AssociatedPress analysis finds—an out-come at odds, critics say, withtheir goal of offering a betteralternative to failing tradi-tional public schools.

National enrollment datashows that charters are vastlyover-represented amongschools where minorities studyin the most extreme racial iso-lation. As of school year 2014-2015, more than 1,000 of thenation’s 6,747 charter schoolshad minority enrollment of atleast 99 percent, and the num-ber has been rising steadily.

The problem: Those levelsof segregation correspondwith low achievement levelsat schools of all kinds.

In the AP analysis of stu-dent achievement in the 42states that have enacted char-ter school laws, along with theDistrict of Columbia, the per-formance of students in char-ter schools varies widely. Butschools that enroll 99 percentminorities—both charters andtraditional public schools—on average have fewer studentsreaching state standards forproficiency in reading andmath.

“Desegregation works.Nothing else does,” saidDaniel Shulman, a Minnesotacivil rights attorney. “There isno amount of money you canput into a segregated schoolthat is going to make it equal.”

Shulman singled out char-ter schools for blame in a law-suit that accuses the state ofMinnesota of allowing ra-cially segregated schools toproliferate, along withachievement gaps for minor-ity students. Minority-ownedcharters have been allowedwrongly to recruit only mi-norities, he said, as otherswrongly have focused on at-tracting whites.

Even some charter schoolofficials acknowledge this is aconcern. Nearly all the stu-dents at Milwaukee’s Bruce-Guadalupe CommunitySchool are Latino, and mostspeak little or no English whenthey begin elementary school.The school set out to serveLatinos, but it also decidedagainst adding a high schoolin hopes that its students willgo on to schools with morediversity.

“The beauty of our school

JOSE “FRANK” CASTROJosé “Frank” Castro, age 72, went to the Lord on December

1, 2017. He was born on November 25, 1945 in Laredo, Texas.Frank’s passion was music; he was well-known as the leader

of the conjunto band, “Frank Castro y Los Amigos” that per-formed in Ohio and Michigan. He enjoyed carpentry and weld-ing work, especially projects for his children. Frank will beremembered as a kindhearted man who was always willing tohelp others. He was a loving Dad and Grandpa. His family willmiss his jokes and adventurous spirit.

Frank is survived by the mother of his children, Elva García;companion, Felisa López; children, Luciano (Nora) García,Frankie Castro (fiancé, Richard McCarthy), Marcus (Tonya)Castro, Atanacia “Tanya” (Steve) Martínez and Jason (Brian)Lutts; siblings, Josephine, Juanita, Jesusa, Pablo “Paul” andGilbert; grandchildren, Bianca, Luciano Jr. (fiancée, Jamie) ,Erica, Marcus Jr. (Briana), Zachary (fiancée, Valerie), Cassidy (fiancé, Mike), Emily, Anastasia,Stephen Jr. and Rojelio; 12 great-grandchildren.

He was preceded in death by his son, Rojelio García; sisters, María Reyes andConcepción “Cruz.”

is we’re 97 percent Latino,”said Pascual Rodríguez, theschool’s principal. “The draw-back is we’re 97 percent Latino... Well, what happens whenthey go off into the real worldwhere you may be part of aninstitution that’s not 97 per-cent Latino?”

The charter school move-ment born a quarter of a cen-tury ago has thrived in largeurban areas, where advocatessay they often aim to servestudents—by and large, mi-norities—who have been letdown by their district schools.And on average, children inhyper-segregated charters doat least marginally better ontests than those in comparablysegregated traditional schools.

For inner-city families withlimited schooling options, thecultural homogeneity of somecharters can boost their appealas alternatives to traditionalpublic schools that are some-times seen as hostile environ-ments.

They and other charter sup-porters insist that these aregood schools, and dismissconcerns about racial balance.

Araseli Pérez, a child ofMexican immigrants, sent herthree children to Bruce-Guadalupe because she at-tended Milwaukee PublicSchools and she wanted some-thing different for her children.The schools in her family’sneighborhood are more di-verse racially, but she said racewas not a factor in her decisionto enroll her children at thecharter school five miles away.

“We’re just happy withthe results,” she said. Heryoungest child, Eleazar, nowin seventh grade, is on thesoccer team and plays thetrumpet at the school, whichboasts test scores and gradu-ation rates above city aver-ages. Ms. Pérez said her chil-dren frequently came homefrom Bruce-Guadalupeshowing off an award theywon.

Her daughter MonicaPérez, 23, went on to a pri-vate school and then collegebefore becoming a teacher’sassistant.

“I don’t think I felt theimpact of going to an all-Latino school until I went tohigh school,” Ms. Pérez said.“When you go to a Latinoschool everyone is RomanCatholic and everyoneknows the same stuff.”

block whatever websites itdidn’t want you to access,”said West. “Eliminating NetNeutrality also means thatyour ISP could purposefullyslow down access to certainwebsites or services and forceyou to pay extra to accesscertain websites or services.The elimination of Net Neu-trality would allow for pricegouging by ISPs and wouldstifle the incredible innova-tion that the internet pro-motes – the sort of innova-tion that has added trillionsof dollars to our economyand created millions ofjobs.”

Numerous leaders in thetech sector, as well as theFCC’s own CommissionerMignon Clyburn, have ex-pressed vehement opposi-tion to the proposed changes

to Net Neutrality. WhileCongress has the authorityto enact legislation protect-ing Net Neutrality, theyhave yet to take actions todo so.

“Net Neutrality protectsthe free market,” saidRamos. “Without Net Neu-trality, ISPs could forcecompanies to pay huge feesor risk having their websiteslowed down dramatically.A tiny number of massivecompanies would be ableto bend the rules in theirfavor, hurting other emerg-ing markets and limitingcompetition that relies ona level playing field.”

HCR 18 was referred tothe House Federalism andInterstate Relations Com-mittee and currently awaitsits initial hearings.

There is growing debateover just how much racialintegration matters. For de-cades after the Supreme Courtruled in 1954 that segregatedschools were unconstitu-tional, integration was heldup as a key measure ofprogress for minorities, butdesegregation efforts havestalled and racial imbalancesare worsening in U.S.schools.

Charter schools havebeen championed by the U.S.education secretary, BetsyDeVos, and as the sector con-tinues to grow it will have tocontend with the question ofwhether separate can beequal.

National Alliance forPublic Charter Schoolsspokeswoman VanessaDescalzi said today’s char-ters cannot be compared toschools from the Jim Crowera, when blacks were barredfrom certain schools.

“Modern schools ofchoice with high concentra-tions of students of color is ademonstration of parentschoosing the best schools fortheir children, rooted in thebelief that the school willmeet their child’s educationalneeds, and often based ondemonstrated student suc-cess,” Descalzi said. “This isnot segregation.”

White teachers have tradi-tionally outnumbered blackand Latino teachers in Mil-waukee schools, which havenot been seen as places whereLatino parents want to sendtheir children, according toEnrique Figueroa, a profes-sor at the University of Wis-consin at Milwaukee and alongtime advocate for Latinostudents in the city. He said hesees no problem with the con-centrations of Latino studentsin some charters.

“I think the more an indi-vidual knows about his or heridentity or culture, the betterthat individual is at assertinghimself in any situation be-cause you are strong aboutwho you are,” he said.

Charter schools, which arefunded publicly and run pri-vately, enroll more than 2.7million nationwide, a num-ber that has tripled over thelast decade. Meanwhile, asthe number of non-charterschools holds steady in theU.S., charters account for

can do anything you set yourmind to. And now, over some-thing I had no control over —where I was born, I was beingdenied my dream.

My teacher continued withthe unofficial requirements,saying a president should alsogo to college and asked whoamong us would do that. Oops.She pulled me aside and askedwhy I felt it was beyond me, towhich I said, “I’m undocu-mented.”

Understanding the pain Imust have felt, she asked whyI wanted to be president?” Isaid, “I want to make a differ-ence in my community, likeMartin Luther King.” Shesmiled and pointed out that hewasn’t a past-president. I coun-tered: “Well, like CésarChávez.” Again, she smiledand corrected me. That’s whenI realized, my dream was not tobecome president; my dreamis to make a positive impact inmy community. I want to in-terpret the law, not be a victimof it.

Thankfully, I did find a wayto go to college, when backthen it seemed impossible. Ihad to pay three times the tu-ition my classmates did, andcouldn’t apply for most schol-arships. I was unable to qualifyfor loans, and unable to work.

Follow Your DREAMBy Salvador Macias

Then, a miracle occurred.The Deferred Action for

Childhood Arrivals program[DACA] was created andbrought me out of the shad-ows. It could work enough tomake me feel free of fear ofdeportation. Thanks to thisprogram, I followed my dream,went to law school, graduatedand passed the Arizona Barexam. The lesson of under-standing the law that I learnedin fourth grade became theengine that drove me.

Nearly 800,000 individu-als across the nation have ben-efited. We have found jobs,reached for higher educationand offered help to commu-nity resources. While manyhoped DACA would remain, Ialways understood it wasmerely a Band-Aid; I alwaysunderstood that true securitycan only come through Con-gress.

We encourage fellow im-migrants to use their voicesand tell their stories. It’s thesestories that help lift the veil ofmisunderstanding.

At times like this, I remem-ber those childhood Saturdaymornings, think back to Su-perman going up against animpeding apocalypse. Itwasn’t his super strength thatsaved the day, it was his re-solve. It was knowing that hewas fighting on the right side.

Dreams can be funny.They begin in a land of make-believe, but with persever-ance and grit, they can be-come objects of reality. I maynot be wearing an “S” on myshirt and may not be living inthe White House, but mylove for this country has ledme to fight for my commu-nity and its dignity.

CIUDAD DE MÉXICO, 7 XII17 (AP): La película chilena “Unamujer fantástica” de SebastiánLelio arrasó en los Premios Fénixel miércoles por la noche alllevarse los honores al mejorlargometraje de ficción, la mejordirección y la mejor actuaciónfemenina, para su estrella DanielaVega.

“Dedico este premio estanoche a todas las mujeres que hanperdido la batalla a manos deotros hombres. Dedico estapelícula al amor”, dijo la actriz,quien hizo historia al recibir elreconocimiento siendotransgénero.

“Una mujer fantástica” siguea Marina, una mujer transgéneroque tras la muerte de su parejasufre el maltrato tanto de la fa-milia de él como de la policía queinvestiga su deceso. Es la apuestachilena al Oscar y desde su debuten el Festival de Cine de Berlín hasido celebrada como una de lasmejores películas del año.

Lelio no estuvo presente. Sucompatriota y colega PabloLarraín recibió el premio a ladirección en su nombre y mástarde su hermano, el productorJuan de Dios Larraín, aceptó elpremio al largometraje de ficción.

Otras que hicieron historiafueron las series “Narcos” y “Clubde Cuervos”, que se llevaron lasprimeras estatuillas otorgadas aproducciones televisivas en unagala de los Fénix.

Narcos fue reconocida comomejor serie de drama y mejorensamble actoral por su segundatemporada.

“Es una serie muy importanteporque por primera vez los grin-gos están leyendo subtítulos”,dijo su director, el colombianoAndrés Baiz. Le dedicó el premioal mexicano Carlos Muñoz,

NUEVA YORK, 7 XII 17(AP): En casi cada una de lascategorías principales del Os-car este año estarán presenteslas denuncias de acoso o abusosexual que han sacudido a laindustria del cine.

¿Mejor actor de reparto?Kevin Spacey era consideradoun contendiente, pero ahora suactuación en “All the Moneyin the World” de Ridley Scottestá siendo reemplazada por lade Christopher Plummer.

¿Mejor cinta animada? Lafavorita es “Coco” de Pixar, elestudio de animacióncofundado por John Lassater,quien se ha tomado un “añosabático” tras su admisión deconducta sexual inapropiada.

¿Mejor dirección? Conapenas cuatro mujeresnominadas en la historia de losPremios de la Academia,ninguna categoría ilustra mejorel problema de desigualdad degénero en la industria, undesequilibrio sistemático quele facilitó a Harvey Weinsteiny otros actuar por tanto tiempocon tanta impunidad.

Incluso el rubro de mejoractriz, donde uno esperaría unmomento de gracia, serápresentado—si se mantiene latradición—por el ganador delOscar al mejor actor del añopasado, Casey Affleck, quienresolvió dos denuncias deacoso sexual en su contra en2010.

Weinstein, quien por añosbuscó ser omnipresente en losOscar, podría finalmentecumplir su deseo. Aun cuandoel antiguo copresidente deWeinstein Co. fue expulsadode la Academia de las Artes yCiencias Cinematográficas yel nombre de su compañía fueborrado de los créditos de sumejor apuesta al Oscar este año(“Wind River”), Weinsteintendrá una presencia ubicua,en ausencia.

El escándalo de abusosexual ha coloreado cada fasede esta temporada de premios,pero cabe preguntar hasta quépunto este fenómeno definirá alos ganadores. La temporadaapenas comienza, conanuncios de premios de lacrítica la semana pasada y laspostulaciones a los Globos deOro el lunes. Pero en los Oscar,el efecto Weinstein ya cumpleun papel imprevisible.

Con tanto escándalo a sualrededor, ¿estará Hollywoodaún de ánimo para palmearse lapropia espalda?

quien fue asesinado buscandolocaciones para la cuartatemporada de la serie en barriospeligrosos de México.

“Club de Cuervos”, en tanto,se impuso como mejor serie decomedia.

“Ya era hora, las series soncomo una especie de cineextendido. Al final del día, lacomunidad que hace el cine es lamisma que está haciendo lasseries”, dijo el actor mexicanoLuis Gerardo Méndez sobre ladecisión de los organizadoresde premiar este año programasde TV de Iberoamérica.

Ambas producciones son deNetflix, el servicio de streamingque ya se ha impuesto enceremonias de premios comolos Emmy y los Globos de Oro.

Volviendo al cine, el premioa la mejor actuación masculinafue para Oscar Martínez por sutrabajo en “El ciudadano ilustre”(Argentina-España). El actor,que no pudo asistir a la gala,envió un mensaje deagradecimiento.

Durante la ceremonia serepartieron varios premiosespeciales. “Un monstruo vienea verme” (Estados Unidos/España), que se llevó los premiosal mejor sonido y diseño de arte,obtuvo el Premio Fénix de losExhibidores, elegido por elpúblico.

El peruano Isaac León Fríasfue reconocido con el PremioFénix al Trabajo Crítico y laactriz argentina NormaAleandro con el Premio Fénixa la Trayectoria. Aleandro,protagonista de cintas como“Cien veces no debo” (1990),“El hijo de la novia” (2001) yla ganadora del Oscar “Lahistoria oficial” (1985),tampoco asistió pero de igual

modo envió un mensaje deagradecimiento.

El premio a mejor guion fuepara la directora Carla Simónpor la cinta española “Estiu1993”, sobre una niña a la quele cuesta adaptarse a vivir consu tío tras la muerte de su madre.

La cinta mexicana “Lalibertad del diablo” deEverardo González, sobre losefectos de la violencia enMéxico contada a partir de lostestimonios de víctimas yvictimarios, obtuvo tresgalardones: a mejor documen-tal, fotografía documental ymúsica original.

“Hoy que discutimos ley deseguridad interna dondehablaremos del ejércitohaciendo labores policiacas,hoy que se discute el tema deotorgar o no amnistía a loscarteles, lo más importante esque esta película abone unpoco, si es que se ve, a que estadiscusión tenga un poco másde sustento”, dijo González.

Entre otros premiostécnicos, el de fotografía deficción fue para la cintaargentina “El invierno” y el demejor vestuario para labrasileña “Joaquim”.

La ceremonia de losPremios Fénix, en su cuartaedición anual, se celebró en elTeatro de la Ciudad EsperanzaIris, en la Ciudad de México.La actriz española Rossy dePalma inauguró la veladainterpretando una sabrosaversión de “Quién será” juntoa la Orquesta Pérez Prado, y lamexicana Natalia Lafourcadeinterpretó su canción “Hastala raíz”, acompañada delmúsico gambiano FodayMusa Suso.

En los Premios Gotham lasemana pasada, lejos de laalegría habitual reinaba unánimo algo apagado, o almenos Nicole Kidman así lopensó cuando aceptó unpremio a la trayectoria yexhortó a los presentes arelajarse. Joana Vicente,directora ejecutiva del Inde-pendent Film Project, queotorga los Gotham, fue una delas pocas personas quenombró directamente loinnombrable.

“Este ha sido un año difícilpara nuestra industria y para elmundo”, dijo Vincente. “Nosgustaría tomarnos un minutepara reconocer y honrar aaquellas mujeres y hombresque se han pronunciado”.

Pero al mismo tiempo, laspelículas han dado muchasrazones para celebrar. Desde“The Florida Project” hasta“Three Billboards OutsideEbbing, Missouri”, lasfavoritas de este año son ungrupo formidable, lleno decomentarios socialesoportunos. Muchos de loscineastas más celebrados, deGreta Gerwig a Jordan Peele,son jóvenes, lo que le da a latemporada de premios una vezdominada por Weinstein loque muchos añoraban: nuevasvoces.

El efecto dominó ha hechodel acoso sexual un temarecurrente en las alfombrasrojas, las entrevistas de prensay los programas de la TVnocturna, sitios típicamentemás reservados para cotorreosbanales. A veces ha llevado ainteracciones incómodascomo en un episodio recientede “Fresh Air “ de NPR, en elque Gerwig fue interrogadapor el anfitrión Terry Grosssobre la decisión de su novioNoah Baumbach de trabajarcon Dustin Hoffman. Laentrevista, por la cual Gerwigfue ampliamente elogiada, fueun ejemplo de cómo laconversación sobre acososexual en Hollywood puedequitarle foco a las mejorespelículas del año.

Aun los eventos con menossorpresas típicos de latemporada del Oscar -funciones seguidas desesiones de preguntas yrespuestas y paneles dediscusión - ahora son territoriopotencialmente tenso. En unaexhibición por el 20moaniversario de “Wag the Dog”,el moderador John Oliver

acribilló a Dustin Hoffmanpor una antigua denuncia deque manoseó a una pasantede 17 años en el plató de lapelícula para TV de 1985“Death of a Salesman”(“Muerte de un viajante”).Hoffman, quien ha negadotal acusación, es un posiblecandidato a mejor actor dereparto por su trabajo en “TheMeyerowitz Stories” deBaumbach, por el cualrecibió un premio Gotham.

Un publicista veterano dela temporada, que habló bajola condición de anonimatopara no influir en ningunacampaña, reconoció quealgunos clientes se hanpreparado para hablar sobreacoso sexual. Pero elpublicista dijo que el impactode los escándalos en lacontienda por el Oscar hasido exagerado.

La cinta más oportunapara el momento post-Weinstein es “Three Bill-boards” de MartinMcDonagh, en la que FrancesMcDormand interpreta a unamadre encolerizada que salea vengar la violación yasesinato de su hija. El direc-tor incluso ha imaginado unaconfrontación entre elpersonaje de McDormand,Mildred Hayes, y Weinstein.“Todos sabemos quiénganaría”, dijo McDonagh.

Aun así, de momento, dosrelatos vivaces y precisossobre el paso a la madurez -”Call Me By Your Name” deLuca Guadagnino y “LadyBird” de Gerwig- hanarrasado con la mayoría delos premios. Tom O’Neil, elveterano analista de premiosde Gold Derby, dijo que elamor temprano por estas“películas pequeñas de grancorazón”, como las llamó, loha obligado a reexaminar supredicción inicial de gloriapara “Three Billboards”.

“Three Billboards” ganóen septiembre el premio de laaudiencia del FestivalInternacional de Cine deToronto, que suele ser unfuerte indicador. Y muchoshan visto a McDormandcomo la favorita indiscutiblea mejor actriz. Pero losprimeros premios de latemporada han recaído enSaoirse Ronan por “LadyBird”, Meryl Streep por “ThePost” y Sally Hawkins por“The Shape of Water”.

CLEVELAND, Nov. 27,2017: Cuyahoga CommunityCollege (Tri-C®) has launcheda website supportingBienvenidos a Cleveland, acollaboration project designedto assist Puerto Rican familiesrelocating to Cleveland follow-ing the devastation of Hurri-cane María.

The website — www.tri-c.edu/bienvenidosacle — pro-vides an online directory ofagencies and organizationsoffering resources to arrivingfamilies. The goal is to easetheir transition to NortheastOhio.

“Cleveland is a welcomingcommunity,” said AlexJohnson, president of the Col-lege. “We are coming together

to provide whatever these fami-lies need to bring a sense ofnormalcy back to their lives.”

Hundreds of families havearrived in Cleveland since lateSeptember and reached outfor support from community-based agencies such as theSpanish American Commit-tee, Cleveland’s oldest andlargest Hispanic social serviceagency.

The biggest challenge hasbeen securing housing, asmany of the displaced fami-lies have little or noincome. Resources also arebeing sought for employment,transportation, medical needs,food, household items andother needs.

Hurricane María ranks as

one of the worst natural disas-ters on record after killing 55people and causing more than$95 billion in damage to theUnited States territory. An es-timated 200,000 families ex-pect to leave the island to es-cape the ongoing humanitar-ian crisis.

Bienvenidos a Clevelandbegan through collaborationbetween Cuyahoga Commu-nity College, Esperanza Inc.,the Spanish American Com-mittee, and Cleveland Metro-politan School District.

After seeing the devasta-tion in Puerto Rico, theycreated the idea of sellingart from local Clevelandartist to raise funds for PuertoRico relief efforts. Theyhelped create CLE ART forPuerto Rico.

CLE ART for PuertoRico will take place on De-cember 16, 2017 in the com-munity room at Euclid’shistoric Shore CulturalCentre, 291 E. 222 St.

• Cleveland has a newplayer in the art galleryarena—The Cleveland Ar-cade Art Gallery. It is locatedat the historic “The Arcade,”401 Euclid Ave, suite 154.The Arcade was built in 1890.

Richard Romero has puttogether this new ClevelandArt Gallery with outstandingartists and informed La Prensathat, “when you first walk intoThe Arcade, right away yourealize you are in a unique,historic, and breathtakingplace. It’s the kind of placethat inspires you just by beingin its presence. It is no wonderwhy artists from the Cleve-land area have come togetherto promote and inspire peoplefrom all walks of life.

“The Arcade itself hasunique gold and natural col-ors along with the detaileddesigns which creates a senseof walking back in time. The

Cleveland Arcade Art Gal-lery will promote whatmakes Cleveland an amaz-ing, vibrant and culturallydiverse city.”

One of the featured artistsis Hector Vega, who is one ofthe most successful artists inCleveland. According toRomero, “one can enjoyVega’s art throughout thecity. Whether visiting theRonald McDonald House,entering a CEO’s office, orsome of the well-knownbuildings throughout thecity; you will encounter aHector Vega work of art.”

According to artist Vega,“as a little kid, art was alwayson my mind…a lot of whatI’ve learned has beenthrough experience. Whatart school doesn’t teach youis the importance of keepinga steady job. There’s more tocreating success in an artistthan just putting on a show.”

Romero concludes,“Hector’s comment is so trueto what The Cleveland Ar-cade Art Gallery is all about.We are not putting on an artshow but rather promotingpride in Cleveland’s rich his-tory and motivatingClevelanders to achieve suc-cess.

La Prensa December 15, 2017

AUSTIN, Texas, Dec. 6,2017 (AP): Texas’ first Latinasheriff announced Wednes-day she is running for gover-nor in 2018, making her thebiggest Democrat in the raceto challenge RepublicanGov. Greg Abbott.

Dallas County SheriffLupe Valdez, who is step-ping down as sheriff after 12years to launch her cam-paign, starts out as an under-dog. Texas hasn’t elected aDemocratic governor since1990 and Abbott coasted toa 20-point win just three yearsago against Wendy Davis,whose defense of abortionrights catapulted her to na-tional political stardom.

In Valdez, 70, Democratsare now putting up a far dif-ferent candidate: a one-timemigrant worker and Armyveteran with more than 40years in law enforcement. Shewas Texas’ first openly gaysheriff and has publiclyclashed with Abbott over herhandling of federal immigra-tion detainers in the nation’sseventh-largest jail system.

Several other lesser-known Democrats, includ-ing the son of a former Texasgovernor in the 1980s, arealso running. But the trueDemocratic heavyweightstook a pass, including JulianCastro, who was PresidentBarack Obama’s housingsecretary and is a formermayor of San Antonio.

Texas Democrats havefaced uncomfortable ques-tions for months aboutwhether they can field a cred-ible gubernatorial candidate.Ms. Valdez, a former U.S.Department of Homeland Se-

“Texas and businesses arebegging for a return of com-mon sense, smart invest-ments and just plain sanity,”said Ms. Valdez, who an-nounced her candidacy atTexas Democratic headquar-ters in Austin.

Ms. Valdez was amongabout 40 female sheriffs in theU.S., a number that amounts toonly about 1 percent of thetotal sheriff population, ac-cording to the National Sher-iffs Association.

Abbott, who is facing re-election for the first time, ap-proaches next year’s midtermelections in a better positionthan few other incumbent gov-ernors in the U.S. He has noserious GOP primary chal-lenger and already has morethan $40 million in campaignfunds socked away.

He remains popular amongsocial conservatives who driveTexas politics and is steeringthe state through the aftermathof Hurricane Harvey, whichcould become the costliestnational disaster cleanup inU.S. history. He has pressed theWhite House for billions ofdollars in additional recoveryaid, and state leaders drew highmarks in a recent survey ofHarvey-affected residents bythe Kaiser Family Foundation.

En una fase posterior, seprevé que este servicio demensajes se extienda paraincluir mensajes de voz yvideo, asegurando que elproceso de envío de remesasrefleje adecuadamente lasrazones por las cuales las per-sonas envían dinero a travésde la frontera.

Otras evoluciones incluyenla posibilidad de ofrecersoluciones de seguros omicrofinanciación, con elremitente pagando la factura através de la aplicación enbeneficio del destinatario,como por ejemplo: paracomprar un refrigerador nuevodonde los pagos a plazos seefectúen a través de laaplicación, pagandodirectamente al minorista.

El envío de dinero alextranjero es a menudo unmedio fundamental para

ayudar a los seres queridos apagar los gastos básicos en supaís. BBVA Research hamostrado que los gastos devivienda y salud son los gastosmás comunes cubiertos porlos fondos de remesas,seguidos de la educación, elpago de deudas y el capitalpara abrir un negocio.

“La gente siente un gransentido del deber de ayudar asus familias”, dijo DerekWhite, jefe global desoluciones para el cliente deBBVA, en comunicado deprensa. “Esta es una manerade decir, ‘Todavía tequeremos, aunque nopodamos estar juntos en estemomento’”.

Un ejemploes que los receptores puedenutilizar la red de 11.000cajeros de BBVA Bancomer,por lo que ya no tendrán queesperar en filas”.

Abbott’scampaign didnot commenton Ms. Valdezentering therace but, notc o i n c i d e n -tally, did re-lease a state-ment about the

Dallas Police Association’spolitical arm endorsing himWednesday for re-election.

Democrats are likely totarget two of Abbott’s mostdivisive pursuits: his “sanc-tuary cities” ban signed inMay; and a so-called bath-room bill targetingtransgender people, whichfailed to pass amid backlashfrom big corporations suchas Amazon and Google.

The new “sanctuary cit-ies” law, known as SB4, isAbbott’s toughest crackdownon immigration and waspartly fueled by Ms. Valdez’sdecision in 2015 that Dallasjails would stop automati-cally honoring federal immi-gration detainers for minoroffenses. At the time, Abbottresponded by threatening topull $250 million in criminaljustice grants to counties thatfollowed Ms. Valdez’s lead,though Dallas never lost anyfunds.

Ann Richards was thestate’s last Democratic gov-ernor and 1994 was the lasttime Democrats won anystatewide office in Texas—the longest losing streak ofits kind in the nation.

Under the compensa-tion system, MaricopaCounty will pay $500 forthe first hour of a person’sillegal detention and $35for each additional 20-minute increment.

A $10,000 cap was im-posed on such compensa-tion, but the judge said thevictims can also seek moneyfor other injuries resultingfrom the illegal detentions

such as lost wages and emo-tional distress.

County officials have setaside $1 million to cover thecompensation costs.

The lawyers who pressedthe case against Arpaio havesearched for victims by get-ting help from foreign consu-lates, watching traffic-stopvideos and poring over arrestand other police records. Theysay at least 190 people weredetained in violation of theorder.

An advertising campaign

is expected to be launchedin a bid to locate victims.

The order to stop the pa-trols was made in a racialprofiling case that focusedon Arpaio’s immigration pa-trols and ended with thejudge concluding thesheriff’s officers had singledout Latinos.

The compensation costsare small piece of the overalltaxpayer costs of the profilecase. Those costs are ex-pected to reach $92 millionby next summer.

TARTA will implement its winter 2018 routeschedule on Sunday, January 7, 2018 with im-provements to include new daytime “lineups” forall TARTA weekday fixed-line service. Lineupsallow for routes to meet at once on Jackson Street—every 30 minutes for the majorityof routes with the upcoming changes—so riders may catch other buses at the sametime and location to make their trips more timely and efficient.

Downtown route connectivity will be increased to every 30 minutes on JacksonStreet along four blocks from Summit to Erie streets. Currently, lineup service is onlyavailable evenings, weekends, and holidays. And weekday route connections pres-ently occur every 30-50 minutes and don’t necessarily coincide with passengers’other bus schedules.

nearly all the growth of schoolswhere minorities face the mostextreme racial isolation.

While 4 percent of traditionalpublic schools are 99 percentminority, the figure is 17 per-cent for charters. In cities, wheremost charters are located, 25percent of charters are over 99percent nonwhite, compared to10 percent for traditionalschools.

School integration gainsachieved over the second halfof the last century have beenreversed in many places overthe last 20 years, and a growingnumber of schools educate stu-dents who are poor and mostlyblack or Hispanic, according tofederal data. The re-segregationhas been blamed on the effectsof charters and school choice,the lapse of court-ordered de-segregation plans in many cit-ies, and housing and economictrends.

The Obama administrationand some states created pro-grams to promote racial and eth-nic diversity in charters, but theyhave been applied unevenly,said Erica Frankenberg, aneducation professor at PennState. School choice, she said,leads to stratification unless it isdesigned in a way to prevent it.

“Word spreads by networksthat are segregated,” saidFrankenberg, who has foundthat black, Latino and whitestudents in Pennsylvania choosecharters with higher racial isola-tion when they have optionsthat are more diverse.

The options to promote di-versity depend entirely on whatis available under state law, ac-cording to Sonia Park, directorof the Diverse Charter SchoolsCoalition, a 2-year-old networkof 100 schools that are deliber-

ately cultivating integration.Only some places haveweighted lotteries, transporta-tion budgets for charter studentsor the ability to draw studentsfrom urban and suburban dis-tricts.

Decades of research haveshown that schools with highpercentages of minority stu-dents historically have fewerresources, less experiencedteachers and lower levels ofachievement.

Like many other US-Ameri-can cities, Milwaukee has seenan exodus of white studentssince a busing program in the1970s. Whites now account foronly 14 percent of the 78,500students in the public schoolsystem. City schools often haveone predominant ethnic group,and many charters are at the farend of that spectrum.

Despite successes at schoolslike Bruce-Guadalupe, charterswith the highest levels of racialisolation rank among the worst.

Nationwide, about half ofstudents reach state proficiencystandards in traditional publicschools, and on average char-ters are only a few percentagepoints behind. Among schoolsthat are 99 percent minority,however, only about 20 percentreach proficiency levels at tra-ditional public schools andabout 30 percent do so at char-ters, according to the AP analy-sis.

At the Milwaukee Math andScience Academy, more than 98percent of the 335 students areAfrican-American and nearly allqualify for free or reduced-pricelunch. Less than 20 percent ofstudents score at state profi-ciency levels for reading andless than 25 percent do so formath. The principal, Alper

Akyurek, acknowledges that theschool has significant room toimprove test scores, but so toodo the neighborhood schoolshis students would be attendingotherwise.

Akyurek said he is certainrace is not the primary consider-ation of families coming to hischarter school on the city’s im-poverished north side.

“I think safety is No. 1,” hesaid.

Jamain Lee, 13, has seen hisgrades improve since he en-rolled two years ago from aschool where he was bullied andfrequently got into fights. Hismother, Alicia Lee, said teach-ers at the neighborhood schoolwould stand by and even recordfights. She is unconcerned aboutthe lack of diversity.

“You focus on, ‘Is my childlearning? Are they having funlearning? Do they want to goback when they come home?”’Alicia Lee said of her decision toenroll her four children in thecharter school.

Howard Fuller, who was su-perintendent of Milwaukeeschools from 1991 to 1995, re-jects criticism of racially iso-lated charters. He says the im-balances reflect deep-rootedsegregation, and it is unfair toput the burden on charters topursue integration.

In a city where many blackstudents live in poverty, andsome reach high school notknowing how to read, he saidthere are other, more pressingproblems.

“It’s a waste of time to talkabout integration,” he said.“How do these kids get the besteducation possible?”
