Area Gas Prices Continued from Page 1A

el precio nacional promedio alcanzó los $5.004 por primera vez. “Los precios de la gasolina han sido un gran impulsor de la inflación, que ha alcanzado su tasa más alta en casi 40 años”, declaró Brittany Cronin en un artículo para NPR. En el área de Kansas City, la gasolina en el lado de Missouri se está volviendo más cara que en el lado de Kansas. Los medios de comunicación y los datos de AAA muestran que el precio promedio en Missouri es de $4.49 y en Kansas, el costo promedio es de $4.43. El incremento de los viajes debido a la recuperación de la pandemia de COVID y la guerra ruso-ucraniana son dos factores clave para el repunte, informó NPR. Los analistas afirman que los intentos de liberar algunas de las reservas de petróleo de Estados Unidos no están provocando una disminución de los precios, y los esfuerzos para reanudar la extracción de petróleo en el país han tenido inconvenientes, afirmó la agencia de noticias. Carolina Méndez se encuentra entre los residentes del área que se han visto afectados por el aumento vertiginoso de los precios de la gasolina. Esta madre de tres dijo que el aumento ha cambiado la dinámica familiar. Debido a los precios de la gasolina, su familia ha buscado alternativas para mantenerse dentro de su presupuesto, dijo. “Los precios de la gasolina están afectando el presupuesto de nuestra familia”, dijo Méndez. “Ahora, debemos ser mucho más cuidadosos con la forma en que usamos el automóvil. La movilidad es una parte básica de nuestras vidas, pero se ha convertido en un desafío no reducir estos gastos. Así que compartimos viajes cuando todos van a la misma área”.

United States, including in the Kansas City area, which has some of the country’s least expensive rates. Prices have risen by a weekly average of 19.6 cents per gallon, reaching their highest levels in several years. According to National Public Radio (NPR), the average national price reached $5.004 for the first time. “Gas prices have been a big driver of inflation, which has surged to its highest rate in nearly 40 years,” Brittany Cronin stated in a story for NPR. In the Kansas City area, gas on the Missouri side is getting more expensive than on the Kansas side. Media outlets and AAA’s data show the average price in Missouri is $4.49, and in Kansas, the average cost is $4.43. Increased travel because of the recovery from the COVID pandemic and the Russian-Ukraine War are two key factors for the uptick, the NPR reported. Analysts claim that attempts to release some of America’s oil reserves are not causing prices to drop, and efforts to resume domestic drilling for oil have hit snags, the news agency stated. Carolina Mendez is among the area residents who have been affected by skyrocketing gas prices. The mother of three said the increase has changed family dynamics. Because of gas prices, her family has looked for alternatives to stay within its budget, she said. “Gasoline prices are hurting our family’s budget,” Mendez said. “Now, we must be much more careful with how we use the car. Mobility is a basic part of our lives, but it has become challenging not to cut down on these expenses. So we are sharing rides when they are (all going) to the same area.”

a los Estados Unidos en 1964. Han pasado casi seis décadas desde que conocí y me enamoré de un estadounidense, Manuel Reyes y su país y su encantadora ciudad natal. En Kansas City, descubrí un centro de hospitalidad, y me encantó su ciudadanía trabajadora y seria, su seguridad, su belleza, su prosperidad y muchas atracciones y puntos de referencia variados, y su vida cultural. Debido a la habitabilidad saludable del área, Manuel y yo echamos raíces aquí para criar a nuestro hijo, Ed, y a nuestra hija, Diana. Asistieron a las escuelas de la ciudad de Overland Park donde no estábamos solos esperando que aprendieran y prosperaran. Nada nos había hecho cuestionar su seguridad en la escuela. ¡Cómo han cambiado los tiempos! En los últimos 58 años, hemos visto un deterioro sorprendente en el clima social, y está poniendo en peligro de manera escalofriante y trágica a los escolares K-12. Desde 1966 hasta mayo de 2022, hubo 15 tiroteos masivos en escuelas de EE.UU., que resultaron en 146 muertos y 182

Nearly six decades have passed since I met and fell in love with an American, Manuel Reyes and his country and charming hometown. In Kansas City, I discovered a hub of hospitality, and I was charmed by its earnest, hardworking citizenry and safety, beauty, prosperity and many assorted attractions and landmarks, and cultural life. Because of the area’s wholesome livability, Manuel and I set down roots here to raise our son, Ed and daughter, Diana. They attended Overland Park neighborhood schools where we weren’t alone in expecting them to learn and flourish. Nothing had ever caused us to question their safety and security at school. How times have changed! Over the past 58 years, we’ve seen a striking deterioration in the social climate, and it’s chillingly, tragically imperiling K-12 schoolkids. From 1966 to May 2022, there were 15 mass shootings at U.S. schools, resulting in 146 dead

maneras”. Las formas en que el centro servirá a la comunidad incluyen ofrecer un centro diurno, un gimnasio de rehabilitación, una biblioteca, un laboratorio de computación, un área de cuidado de la memoria de baja estimulación y una sala de artes y manualidades. Además, habrá un área de recreación al aire libre y salas de reuniones, informa Swope Health. “PACE KC ofrecerá un enfoque proactivo y práctico para abordar la atención integral de la persona: necesidades físicas, emocionales y psicológicas”, dijo Heath Rath, director ejecutivo de PACE KC, en el comunicado. El trabajo está siendo financiado en parte por Wesley Fields, junto con una subvención de $1.4 millones de la Fundación Mabee, afirma Swope Health News. McCownGordon Construction, con sede en Kansas City, Missouri, que ha trabajado en más de 1,100 proyectos, incluidos otros proyectos de salud, se desempeña como contratista general, según los datos de Swope Health. En su página de Facebook, McCownGordon Construction publicó algunas fotos de la ceremonia inaugural y dijo que está emocionado de participar en el proyecto. “El Centro de Bienestar para Adultos PACE KC tendrá un impacto en tantas vidas y estamos orgullosos de hacer realidad estos sueños”, decía la publicación.

growing our presence to serve the community in new ways.” Ways the center will serve the community include offering a day center, rehab gym, library, computer lab, low-stimulation memory care area, and an arts and crafts room. In addition, there will be an outdoor recreation area and meeting rooms, Swope Health information states. “PACE KC will offer a proactive, hands-on approach to addressing whole-person care – physical, emotional and psychological needs,” Heath Rath, PACE KC executive director, was quoted in the release as saying. Work is being partly funded by Wesley Fields, along with a $1.4-million grant from the Mabee Foundation, Swope Health information states. Kansas City, Missouri-headquartered McCownGordon Construction – which has worked on 1,100-plus projects, including different health projects – is serving as the general contractor, Swope Health information states. On its Facebook page, McCownGordon Construction posted some pictures of the groundbreaking ceremony and said it is excited to be involved with the project. “The PACE KC Adult Wellness Center will impact so many lives and we’re proud to bring these dreams to reality,” the post said.

heridos, según la base de datos de investigadores de Scientific American. El 1 de agosto de 1966, un hombre armado subió a la parte superior de la torre de observación de la Universidad de Texas-Austin y disparó al azar en el campus de abajo. Mató a 16 personas e hirió a 31. Y todavía estamos paralizados por el último tiroteo masivo en una escuela, que ocurrió el 24 de mayo, sólo dos días antes de las vacaciones de verano. Dejó 19 estudiantes de primaria y dos maestros muertos, y otros 17 heridos. ¿Qué motiva tan monstruosos ataques? Algunos perpetradores se inspiran en tiradores escolares anteriores; buscan fama y notoriedad, escribieron dos profesores de justicia penal en la edición en línea del 25 de mayo de la revista Scientific American. “Sin embargo, la mayoría de los tiradores escolares están motivados por una ira generalizada”, escribieron los profesores James Densley y Jillian Peterson. ¿Qué hemos hecho para crear esta distopia donde las escuelas ya no son instituciones prometedoras de aprendizaje e infancia sin preocupaciones, sino de peligro y muerte? ¿Es la proliferación y el fácil acceso a las armas de fuego? ¿Los problemas de la sociedad se manifiestan terriblemente en las escuelas? ¿No estamos, como padres y abuelos, asumiendo un papel activo en la vida de los niños, monitoreando adecuadamente su comportamiento y reconociendo cuándo es el momento de una intervención profesional? Al igual que otros, pienso con añoranza en la prosperidad y la seguridad que prevalecían cuando llegué a Estados Unidos, y me pregunto cómo, o incluso si, podemos restaurar nuestro mundo y nuestras escuelas. Y contemplo lo que personalmente puedo hacer.

and 182 injured, according to Scientific American researchers’ database. On Aug. 1, 1966, a gunman climbed to the top of the University of Texas-Austin observation tower and fired randomly on the campus below. He killed 16 people and wounded 31. And we’re still transfixed by the latest mass school shooting, occurring May 24, just two days before summer vacation. It left 19 elementary students and two teachers dead, and 17 others wounded. What motivates such monstrous attacks? Some perpetrators are inspired by past school shooters; they seek fame and notoriety, wrote two professors of criminal justice in the May 25 online edition of Scientific American magazine. “However, most school shooters are motivated by a generalized anger,” professors James Densley and Jillian Peterson wrote. What’ve we done to create this dystopia where schools are no longer promising institutions of learning and carefree childhood but of danger and death? Is it the proliferation and easy access to firearms? Are society’s problems dreadfully manifesting in schools? Are we as parents and grandparents failing to take an active role in kids’ lives, properly monitor their behavior and recognize when it’s time for professional intervention? Like others, I think longingly of the prosperity and safety that prevailed when I came to the U.S., and I wonder how or even if we can restore our world and our schools. And I contemplate what I personally can do.

Warriors, a una victoria de la gloria Los Golden State Warriors ganaron el Juego 5 de las Finales de la NBA y se colocaron a una victoria de conseguir su cuarto título en ocho años. Los Warriors supieron sobreponerse de un tercer cuarto que por lo general lo saben manejar muy bien pero que esta vez fue todo para Celtics. Con un Stephen Curry apagado, el liderato del equipo tuvo que recaer en Andrew Wiggins, quien terminó con dobles dígitos tanto en anotaciones como en rebotes en dos partidos consecutivos. Stephen Curry rompió una racha histórica de 132 partidos conectando por lo menos un triple. El ‘Chef’ se fue con 9 de nueve el lunes por la noche. El juego 6 se juega esta noche en el TD Garden y los Warriors por lo menos aseguraron regresar a casa a definir la serie.

Tyreek Hill dice que Tagovailoa es mejor que Mahomes El ahora receptor abierto de los Miami Dolphins, Tyreek Hill, dijo en su podcast que ve a Tua Tagovailoa como mejor pasador que Patrick Mahomes y que los Chiefs sufrirán sin él en el equipo. Pero regresando a ver los partidos en los que Mahomes jugó sin Hill como receptor en 2019, el mariscal de los Chiefs completó 103 pases en 162 intentos con ocho touchdowns y ninguna intercepción.

Yendo aún más atrás, en 2017 cuando Mahomes aún no era titular, él sustituyó a Alex Smith en el último juego de la temporada, Patrick lanzó para 284 yardas con una intercepción. Hill descansó ese día. Mexicana entre las mejores goleadoras del mundo Las buenas actuaciones de Alicia Cervantes durante el semestre pasado tanto con su club Chivas y la selección, donde ha anotado 23 goles en total, le han valido para ser considerada entre las mejores cinco del mundo. Cervantes es superada por Samantha Kerr del Chelsea, Marie Antoniiette Katotto del PSG y Tessa Wuallert del Anderlecht quienen llevan 26 goles cada una. Alicia Cervantes se coronó con Chivas campeona del torneo femenil en el Clausura 2022 y es considerada la mejor delantera mexicana del momento. Otras mexicanas que figuran en el top 15 del mundo son Stephany Mayor de Tigres en el puesto 10 quien sumó 17 goles la temporada pasada y Charlyn Corral, en el puesto 12 con la misma cantidad de goles. Peter Vermes sufre con el recambio generacional El entrenador del Sporting Kansas City dijo en una entrevista con MLSSocer.com que se siente un poco frustrado de no poder salir a buscar promesas en otras partes del país para hacer un cambio generacional en el equipo con sangre nueva ya que el área de Kansas City no es un territorio fértil para conseguir jugadores jóvenes. “Si dependiera de mí, abriría el territorio por completo como lo hace el resto del mundo,” dijo Vermes. Kansas City se encuentra en la última posición de la Conferencia Oeste con 13 puntos jugando casi con jugadores alternos. Los Jugadores Designados Alan Pulido y Gadi Kinda se encuentran lesionados por el resto de la temporada; además de que las otras estrellas como Graham Suzi, Johnny Russell y Nicolas Isimat-Mirin se han perdido varios partidos por lesión, esto sumado a los llamados a sus selecciones de algunos de los jugadores como Daniel Salloi y Marinos Tzionis. Esto no impide a que Vermes sueñe con llegar a la postemporada y para ello intentará fichar en el próximo mercado de verano.
