ENTRETENIMIENTO I 3

Chita Rivera, Electrifying Star of Broadway and Beyond, Is Dead at 91 Appearing in scores of stage productions, she dazzled audiences for nearly six decades, most memorably starring as Anita in “West Side Story” and Velma Kelly in “Chicago.”

BY ROBERT D. MCFADDEN

nytimes.com

Jan. 30, 2024 - Chita Rivera, the fire-and-ice dancer, singer and actress who leapt to stardom in the original Broadway production of “West Side Story” and dazzled audiences for nearly seven decades as a Puerto Rican lodestar of the American musical theater, died on Tuesday in New York. She was 91.

The death was announced in a statement by her daughter, Lisa Mordente. It gave no other details.

To generations of musical aficionados, Ms. Rivera was a whirling, bounding, high-kicking elemental force of the dance; a seductive singer of smoky ballads and sizzling jazz; and a propulsive actress of vaudevillian energy. She appeared in scores of stage productions in New York and London, logged 100,000 miles on cabaret tours and performed in dozens of films and television programs.

On Broadway, she created a string of memorably hardedged women — Anita in “West Side Story” (1957), Rosie in “Bye Bye Birdie” (1960), the murderous floozy Velma Kelly in “Chicago” (1975) and the title role in “Kiss of the Spider Woman” (1993). She sang enduring numbers in those roles:“America”in “West Side Story,”“One Boy”and“Spanish Rose”in “Bye Bye Birdie,” and“All That Jazz”in “Chicago.”

Critics thumbed thesauruses for hyperboles to rhapsodize about her pyrotechnics. In 2005, Newsweek called her “only the greatest musical-theater dancer ever.” Reviewing her performance in “Bye Bye Birdie” in The New York Times, Brooks Atkinson called her “a flammable singer and gyroscopic dancer.” Of her Tony Award-winning romp as Anna in “The Rink” (1984), Richard Corliss in Time magazine wrote: “Packing 30 years of Broadway savvy into the frame of a vivacious teenager, the 51-year-old entertainer could by now sell a song to the deaf.”

Ms. Rivera was a hard-working perfectionist who rarely missed a beat, let alone a performance. Trained in classical ballet before joining the musical stage, she was beloved on Broadway, where she began performing in the early 1950s.

With her showstopping voice and eloquent body language, she radiated a charisma rooted in solid song and dance techniques and in the pleasures she derived from them.

As a singer and actress, Ms. Rivera was largely self-taught, though she received an on-the-job education from some of the foremost pedagogues in the pantheon: the choreographersBob FosseandJerome Robbins, the composerLeonard Bernstein, the songwriting team of John Kander and Fred Ebb, and the playwrightTerrence McNally.

In 1986, Ms. Rivera had to suspend her dancing life when a taxi collided with her car in Manhattan, shattering her left leg in a dozen places. She underwent two surgeries, with screws and plates used to reconnect her bones, followed by months of rehabilitation. For many dancers, the injuries might have been career-ending, but almost a year after the accident she began dancing again, easing her way back with cabaret acts that sustained her for years.

She never fully recovered. “You’ll never see me in ballet slippers again because I don’t have my Achilles’ tendon,” she told The Times in 1993,when she returned to Broadwayafter a seven-year absence to star in “Kiss of the Spider Woman.”

She added: “I can’t do the full stretch. But I don’t have any pain anymore. The only problem is that my leg sets off metal detectors at airports.”

CHITA RIVERA, an original cast member in the Broadway production of “West Side Story,” was a hardworking perfectionist who rarely missed a beat, let alone a performance.

In “Chita Rivera: The Dancer’s Life,” an autobiographical retrospective presented on Broadway in 2005, she delivered a tango about the men in her past, a dance sequence for Mr. Fosse, Mr. Robbins and other choreographers, and a medley of her musical highlights, including “A Boy Like That” from

“West Side Story” and “All That Jazz” from “Chicago.”

“At 72, she still has the voice, the attitude and — oh, yes — the legs to magnetize all eyes in an audience,” Ben Brantley wrote in a review for The Times. “She is a pro’s pro in a world of exacting judgments and mythic standards. It feels right that ‘The Dancer’s Life’ should present her as the ultimate gypsy made good, the talented trouper who got the right breaks.”

A decade later, Ms. Rivera was still a headliner, starring in a 2015 musical adaptation of “The Visit,” the Kander-Ebb-McNally musical based on Friedrich Dürrenmatt’s satirical play about greed and revenge. In it she played a wealthy widow who returns to her depressed hometown with an offer of money for the murder of an old flame who betrayed her long ago.

The production ran on Broadway for 11 weeks, including previews, grossed $2 million and received five Tony nominations. The Times reported that “the opening night audience was on its feet, its applause so boisterous and sustained that Ms. Rivera had to wave it down with a magisterial sweep of her hand.”

Ms. Rivera was showered with honors during her long career. She won two Tony Awards for best actress in a musical, for “The Rink” and “Kiss of the Spider Woman”; was nominated for eight others; and in 2018 received a special Tony for lifetime achievement. In 2002, she became the first Hispanic American woman to receive Kennedy Center Honors, the capital’s version of the Oscars, in a group that included Elizabeth Taylor, James Earl Jones and Paul Simon.

In 2009, she received the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation’s highest civilian honor, from President Barack Obama in a White House ceremony.

It was the culmination of an odyssey that began a few miles away in Washington on Jan. 23, 1933, with the birth of Dolores Conchita Figueroa del Rivero, the third of five children of Pedro Julio and Katherine (Anderson) del Rivero.

Her father, who was born in Puerto Rico, played the clarinet and saxophone with the U.S. Navy Band and the Harry James Orchestra. He died when Conchita was 7. Her mother, who was of Scottish, Irish and Puerto Rican descent and also had African American ancestors, which she discovered late in life, became a clerk at the Pentagon and enrolled Conchita in singing, dance and piano lessons. Dancing became her passion. On the advice of her teacher, she auditioned for George Balanchine and won a scholarship to his School of American Ballet in New York City.

Living with an uncle’s family in the Bronx, she graduated from William Howard Taft High School in 1951. At an open call for dancers, she won a part with a national touring company of Irving Berlin’s “Call Me Madam.” After 10 months on the road, she replaced Onna White as a principal dancer in “Guys and Dolls” in New York. Over the next few years, she danced in “Seventh Heaven,” “Shoestring Revue” and “Mr. Wonderful.” Her career moved up. She shortened her name to a catchy Chita Rivera.

In 1953, she landed a Broadway gig as a chorus dancer in “Can-Can,” the Cole Porter-Abe Burrows musical starring Gwen Verdon, who encouraged Ms. Rivera to shoot for the marquee. She won a part in “Mr. Wonderful” and had a romantic fling with its star, Sammy Davis Jr. [Continúa en la página 23]

On Tuesday, Jan. 30, Elgin historian Jerry Turnquist will discuss the history of the Gail Borden Library, the first of many special activities and events to commemorate its 150th anniversary.

The program will be 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. in the Meadows Community Rooms ABC at the Main Library, 270 N. Grove Ave. in downtown Elgin.

The 1870s brought innovation and change to Elgin and the entire country. Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone, Thomas Edison invented the light bulb, and Elgin’s first public library opened its doors.

Much has happened in 150 years, from Gail Borden Library’s beginning with a collection of 2,000 books in 1874 to the community center it is today.

State education board to seek $653M increase

BY PETER HANCOCK

(Capitol News Illinois)

The Illinois State Board of Education endorsed a budget request Wednesday that includes a $653 million increase in funding for PreK-12 public schools.

It’s a request that lawmakers may find hard to accommodate in a year when the state faces a projected $891 million budget deficit.

PreK-12 education spending makes up about one-fifth of the state’s General Revenue Fund budget. The proposed increase, if approved, would bring the state’s total spending on public education to just over $11 billion.

“We were pleased to hear that the board, even in a tight budget year, continues to prioritize necessary investments for districts and students across the state,” Gerson Ramirez, a lobbyist for the advocacy group Advance Illinois, said during the meeting.

The proposed budget includes a $350 million increase in Evidence-Based Funding, the minimum increase required under a 2018 law that calls for gradually increasing the state’s share of the cost of public education while focusing new money on the state’s most poorly funded districts. That includes $300 million for direct funding for the qualifying districts and $50 million that is distributed in the form of property tax relief grants.

That law calls for continuing to increase funding each year until all districts are funded at 90% or more of their target “adequacy” level.

When the law first went into effect, nearly one in five school districts were being funded at or below 60% of their adequacy level.

Today, no districts are being funded below the 60% level, but the state still has a long way to go before reaching the goal of having all districts at or above 90% of adequacy.

According to a report that accompanied the budget proposal, it would take another $2.5 billion in Evidence-Based Funding to reach that goal.

In addition to the increase in Evidence

Based Funding, which districts use to enhance their general operating budgets, ISBE’s request includes about $300 million in new or increased funding for several categories of school expenses.

The largest of those is a proposed $112 million increase, or nearly 26%, for a program that reimburses school districts for the cost of providing transportation to students with disabilities. That would be enough to cover about 84% of the total cost for that category of transportation funding, which is roughly the same percentage the state was paying before the COVID-19 pandemic.

The package also calls for a $75 million increase in early childhood education funding to continue Gov. JB Pritzker’s Smart Start Illinois initiative, a multi-year program that seeks to eliminate early childhood and preschool “deserts” for 3- and 4-year-old children by 2027.

That money would enable state-funded preschools to reach an additional 5,000 children next year. State officials estimate total enrollment in those preschools will grow to nearly 114,000 in 2025, an increase of more than 17,000 since 2023.

ISBE’s spending plan also calls for addressing the pressures some districts are facing due to the large number of international migrants arriving in Illinois.

Over the last two years, state officials estimate the number of “newcomers” in Illinois has grown nearly 85%, to about 36,200.

Since August 2022, more than 34,000 migrants have been bused or flown to Illinois by order of Texas Gov. Greg Abbott after crossing that state’s southern border.

Newcomers are defined as students age 3 through 21 who were born outside the United States and who have been attending one or more schools in the U.S. for less than three full academic years.

The proposal calls for $35 million in new funding for a line item called “supporting newcomers.” That money would be available for such expenses as hiring bilingual teachers, paraprofessionals and other staff; buy-

ing materials written in the students’ native languages; providing additional before- and after-school programming; and providing other supports for children and families.

Funding for ISBE is just one part of the state’s overall annual budget, but it is one of the largest categories of state General Revenue Fund spending. It was unclear Wednesday whether Pritzker was endorsing the request.

The Governor’s Office of Management and Budget issued a report in November projecting the state could face a budget deficit next year of $891 million, assuming revenue trends remain stable and the state continues making all of its required payments into its rainy day fund and pension funds.

Pritzker is scheduled to deliver his budget proposal to the General Assembly on Feb. 21.

Meanwhile, Advance Illinois issued a

statement Wednesday that noted school districts will face their own budget pressures next year when federal pandemic-related relief programs come to an end.

“ISBE’s proposal serves as a solid road map for investments Illinois must undertake to meet the comprehensive needs of every child and student in the state generally, and in the ongoing aftermath of COVID disruptions,” the organization said.

Ms. Rivera shot to stardom in 1957 as Anita in “West Side Story,” the Romeo-and-Juliet tale set in postwar Manhattan, where starcrossed lovers, Maria and Tony, are caught in a deadly war of street gangs. As Anita, she sang a poignant duet with Carol Lawrence as Maria, “A Boy Like That/I Have a Love,” and a magical“Tonight,”as well as leading a rousing ensemble in “America.”

With music by Leonard Bernstein, lyrics

by Stephen Sondheim, choreography by Mr. Robbins and a book by Arthur Laurents, the musical won ecstatic reviews and ran for 732 performances before going on tour, and it had an even longer run in London.

In 1957, Ms. Rivera married Anthony Mordente, a dancer in “West Side Story.” They divorced in 1966. In addition to her daughter, Lisa, she is survived by two brothers, Julio and Armando; and a sister, Lola del Rivero.Ms. Rivera lived in Rockland County, N.Y. Other triumphs followed, starting with the original production of “Bye Bye Birdie,” in 1960, a musical comedy that revolved around a hip-thrusting character based on Elvis Presley. It spoofed a fading era of 1950s rock ‘n’ roll, the culture of celebrity, the power of television on small-town America, and show business in general. It featured Ms. Rivera as a songwriter’s secretary who turns the loss of her agency’s meal ticket, the rock star Conrad Birdie, who is being drafted into the Army, into a coup by organizing a national farewell-kiss contest for swooning fans. Ms. Rivera, nominated for her first Tony, was hailed in The Guardian: “So magnetic is her

| Español personality that we tend to forget the plot and wait only for Miss Rivera to take the center of the stage.”

She scored another Tony nomination in 1976 for the original Broadway production of “Chicago,” the wryly cynical musical about vice in the 1920s. Ms. Rivera played Velma Kelly to Ms. Verdon’s Roxie Hart — rival murderesses in the Cook County Jail competing for lurid publicity and the services of the never-lose, give-’em-the-old-razzmatazz lawyer Billy Flynn, played byJerry Orbach. It ran for 936 performances.

Ms. Rivera’s Broadway career rarely slackened, and when she found time, she filled it with international cabaret work and appeared in films and on television dramas and comedies and on the variety shows of Ed Sullivan, Dinah Shore, Garry Moore, Sid Caesar and Carol Burnett.

Her films included a half-dozen documentaries about Broadway and its stars. She also made a cameo appearance in Lin-Manuel Miranda’s 2021 feature, “Tick, Tick …

Boom!” a biographical musical drama based on Jonathan Larson’s stage musical of the same name.

In 2017, the Astaire Awards, named for Fred and Adele Astaire, who appeared in 10 Broadway musicals between 1917 and 1931, were renamed the Chita Rivera Awards for Dance and Choreography.

In 2015, Broadway marveled when Ms. Rivera, at 82, opened in “The Visit.”

Hadn’t she considered retiring?

“Gosh, no,” shetold BroadwayDirect.com.

“That’s up to God. But in the meantime, life

is fabulous and I’m lucky enough to have lived a long time while surrounded by the greatest creative people. I have too much to dance and sing about yet, and too many people to entertain.”

Her long-awaited autobiography, “Chita: A Memoir,” written with the journalist Patrick Pacheco, was published in the spring of 2023. It traced her life “with a veteran’s clarity and insouciance,” and disclosed two distinct sides of Ms. Rivera’s personality,Juan A. Ramirez wrote inThe Times.

Whereas Chita is the sweet one “who tries to bring everything together, solve problems and likes to laugh,” Ms. Rivera wrote, her “inner renegade,” called Dolores, “doesn’t hold back, and gets her jobs. She was the one that protected me.”

Latino journalist layoffs threaten coverage of disinformation targeting Hispanics

Job cuts, including those of Hispanic journalists at the L.A. Times and other newsrooms, raise worries of fewer watchdogs calling out misinformation and fake content aimed at Latinos.

BY SUZANNE GAMBOA

Nbc.com

As Covid ravaged the country, Los Angeles Times opinion writer Jean Guerrero saw firsthand how outrageous claims of cures on social media were being passed around Latino families by relatives. Her father had sent her one on YouTube.

Guerrero used the experience with her father to blast the spread of Covid disinformation among Latinos in aMay 2021 column in the prominent national newspaper.

But on Tuesday, Guerrero, the newspaper’s only Latina opinion columnist, got a layoff notice, one of the many Hispanic and other journalists of color among the 115 newsroom staffers that the outlet chopped.

Guerrero said she’s unhappy that she and others have lost their jobs. But she’s also concerned about the timing.

The layoffs, along with thousands of others at news outlets last year and the beginning of this year, are happening in an election year full of red flags on the precarious state of democratic norms and amid warnings of a rise in disinformation.

Latino journalists have often been the first to point out false rumors circulating in their own communities. In recent years, experts have flagged misinformation and disinformation specifically targeting Latinos and Spanish speakers on topics such as Covid as well as climate-related issues and politics,including immigration. A 2021 Nielsen study found Latinos are more likely to consumeand share misinformation.

Former President Donald Trump, who has dominated the GOP primaries in Iowa and New Hampshire, has continued to falsely claim that the 2020 election was stolen and promoted a false conspiracy theory that Nikki Haley, who is Indian American, was not born in the U.S. She was born in South Carolina.

Trump said migrants coming to the U.S. are “poisoning the blood” of the country, echoing the rhetoric of Adolf Hitler. This kind of language has been decried by those who point out that the gunman who killed 23 people at an El Paso, Texas, Walmart in 2019 cited an “invasion” of immigrants and said he was targeting “Mexicans,” according to authorities.

“Trump is riding anti-Latino hate back into the White House and instead of fighting back, news organizations across the country are eliminating some of the only Latino voices in the national media landscape,” Guerrero told NBC News.

Latino journalists have long been few in major American newsrooms. As Hispanics’ numbers have grown to 62 million nationally, influencing everything from culture to

LATINO JOURNALISTS have often been the first to point out false rumors circulating in their own communities and trusted voices breaking down conflicting and sometimes false information.

religion to politics, the industry had seemed to recognize their exclusion.

But the layoff of dozens of Latino journalists by the Los Angeles Times appeared to be a profound reversal. Before that, there were staff cuts at Univision, CNN, NBC News,Telemundo, NPR and other outlets.

According to a statement issued by the L.A. Times caucuses, or in-house groups for Latinos and other journalists of color, the layoffs mean the Times is cutting 38% of its Latino caucus members andguttingthe staff of De Los, the newspaper›s digital vertical dedicated to covering Latinos.

Eliminating ‘trusted voices’ Maria Teresa Kumar, who helped create the Anti-Latino Disinformation Lab to counter disinformation in 2021, said what the Times has done is eliminate many “cultural experts” that it needs in a city like Los Angeles, which is almost half Latino. Such journalists come from the community where the impact of disinformation is forceful, setting up vulnerability in the nation’s democracy.

“That is a loss in an election that is not going to be a policy discussion. This election season is all going to be framed on commu-

nications and trust and who we trust to carry those messages to us,” said Kumar, who is also an MSNBC contributor. “With the rabid disinformation and deepfakes that we anticipate, having those trusted voices absent from newsrooms can really tilt the scales against democracy and democratic norms.”

This year, 22% of Latinos will be voting in their first presidential election, according to a survey by UnidosUS. Three-quarters of them are U.S.-born and will have turned 18.

Because the L.A. Times laid off journalists with less seniority, that meant many young Latinos, some hired amid the push for diversity following the murder of George Floyd, got layoff notices.

The L.A. Times’ De Los vertical capitalized on young journalists’ insight into social media and technology and got traction, said Robert Hernandez, a journalism professor at the University of Southern California Annenberg School for Communication and Journalism.

“Aging older audiences are dying, and if you want to stay relevant, you have to connect with these demographics and these audiences,” Hernandez said. “If you want to be

here for the long haul, you have to play the long game and you have to get them while they are young and build a relationship with them.”

The L.A. Times isn’t the first to lay off election writers during an election, Hernandez said. But it’s chosen a precarious time to do so, he said. Politicians are not resonating with voters, and one of the presidential candidates, Trump, isfacing multiple indictments and criminal charges. President Joe Biden also is contending with tax-related chargesagainst his son.

“We’re at an important intersection for democracy and our country,” Hernandez said, “and we need quality reporters that look at different perspectives and represent the multicultural reality of our communities to be reporting on the elections and everyday topics.”

There will always be a need for journalism, he added, because people will always have questions “and it’s a full-time job to get those answers.”

“But you’re not going to know what the need is if you lay off staff that looks more like the community,” Hernandez said. “That’s just the realistic, obvious disconnect.”

10 I INMIGRACIÓN

Janine Trainor Fronteras de la Noticia - EFE l presidente Joe Biden reafirmó el durante una cena del Partido Demócrata en Carolina del Sur que tiene la intención de “cerrar la frontera” con México, si el Congreso le otorga la autoridad para hacerlo mediante la aprobación de un proyecto de ley que se está negociando en el Senado.

Biden expresó su respaldo a la iniciativa que senadores de ambos partidos llevan negociando desde hace semanas y que describió como “el proyecto de seguridad fronteriza más duro e inteligente de la historia”.

El presidente expresó su intención de “cerrar la frontera” por primera vez en un comunicado distribuido por la Casa Blanca.

Esas declaraciones representan un cambio significativo no solo en el tono de Biden, sino también en la postura tradicional del Partido Demócrata sobre inmigración, y además, reflejan la importancia que el asunto ha ganado para su campaña de reelección.

El expresidente Donald Trump, favorito para ser el candidato del Partido Republicano, ha centrado su atención en la inmigración durante su campaña electoral y ha dejado claro que piensa usar ese tema contra Biden.

Según el diario The Washington Post, cuando Biden habla de “cerrar la frontera” se refiere a una cláusula incluida en el proyecto legislativo que permitiría expulsar a los inmigrantes cuando las detenciones en la frontera con México superen las 5,000 durante un promedio de cinco días.

Bajo esta cláusula, la mayoría de los migrantes que cruzan irregularmente la frontera no podrían solicitar asilo, de acuerdo con The Washington Post, que cita fuentes familiarizadas con el texto del proyecto.

Durante ese período, los migrantes podrían pedir asilo en los puertos de entrada, pero con un número limitado de plazas disponibles.

Esta medida permitiría la expulsión indefinida de migrantes hasta que las detenciones en la frontera con México disminuyan a menos de 3,750 por día, según el diario.

El Senado, bajo control demócrata, se ha mostrado dispuesto a aprobar el proyecto. Sin embargo, los republicanos de la Cámara Baja, donde ostentan la mayoría, ya han manifestado su rechazo y, además, Trump les ha pedido que rechacen cualquier compromiso con los demócratas.

El acuerdo fronterizo es parte de un paquete más amplio de medidas que se están negociando en el Congreso y donde se incluyen nuevos fondos de ayuda para Ucrania e Israel, partidas que son una prioridad para Biden y cuya aprobación ya pidió al Congreso desde octubre.

Sin embargo, los republicanos han rechazado aprobar dicha ayuda a menos que se realicen cambios en el sistema de asilo y en los procesos migratorios vigentes, lo que ha llevado tanto a Biden como a los miembros del Congreso a la situación actual.

Elgin High School Presents its Annual National Biodiversity Teach-In Hour-long webinars on biodiversity offered on Fridays in February ELGIN - Scientists from around the world will participate in this year’s National Biodiversity Teach-In, organized annually by environmental science students at Elgin High School. Featuring a series of webinars in February, the event is designed to raise awareness about the importance of biodiversity and inspire participants to take part in environmental protection.

The National Biodiversity Teach-In will feature more than 15 webinars, all free and open to the public, on Fridays in February.

Subjects to be addressed during this year’s Teach-In include the evolution of snakes and their venom; snow leopard conservation; rare frogs; welfare of captive whales; prairie restoration; the importance of native plants; and polar bears in a changing Arctic.

As in previous years, the 2024 Teach-In is expected to draw environmental science enthusiasts, as well as whole classrooms of students, from around the globe. Over the years, it has registered more than 110,000 participants from more than 27 countries.

Environmental students at EHS, guided by several teachers, have been working on the 2024 Teach-In for months. Student organizers delegate the event responsibilities by committees. They troubleshoot technology issues, register participants, respond to media requests, advertise, and create promotional materials.

Autumn McGowan, an EHS graduate, is now a conservation fellow at The Nature Conservancy. McGowan supports the work of the organization across the Midwest and the Great Lakes with research, writing, and data analysis. She’ll be presenting on The Nature Conservancy’s work with reefs in the Great Lakes on Feb. 9.

“From being an EHS student who helped with the National Biodiversity Teach-In in 2019, to now having the opportunity to be a presenter, is incredible,” she said. “It is so much fun working with the EHS students and staff, and I am really looking forward to the 2024 webinars.”

The webinars are scheduled during the school day on Feb. 2, Feb. 9, Feb. 16, and Feb. 23. Each speaker will give a presentation based on their specialty and also include dedicated time for questions and answers.

As was the case in recent years, the Teach-In will feature a day of sessions with

nearly all female presenters for the International Day of Women and Girls in Science, a declaration from the United Nations General Assembly to encourage a new generation of female scientists to tackle the major challenges of our time by leading innovation in science and technology.

In addition to McGowan, among the women presenting Friday, Feb. 9, are Jillian Morris, a marine biologist and a shark conservationist; Naomi Rose, a marine mammal scientist; Dr. Bonnie Hamilton, a ecotoxicologist who studies contaminants in the Arctic; Sonya Harris, a plant biologist; and Dr. Cassandra Debets, an arctic ecologist who works with Polar Bears International.

Student organizers of the Teach-In made an effort this year to add programming on topics that have mass appeal.

For instance, Becky Chaplin-Kramer is a global biodiversity scientist who works at the World Wildlife Fund to advance the science and implantation of conservation strategies to support biodiversity. In her presentation, which will be Friday, Feb. 23, she will focus on how satellites can monitor biodiversity and be a tool to help reduce global deforestation.

The webinars first began at EHS in 2013 to raise awareness about the importance of biodiversity. The 100-year anniversary of the extinction of the passenger pigeon in 2014 and the story of Martha, the last known living passenger pigeon, increased the students’ interest and desire to discuss biodiversity with some of the best experts in the field.

“Every year is more exciting as we make contact with scientists in different fields, allowing our students an opportunity to explore science in a new and different way,” said EHS science teacher Brigid Trimble, who helped launch the event.

The Teach-In website at www.nationalbiodiversityteachin.com has a full schedule and details on the speakers and topics being discussed. Those who register to attend a webinar will receive a personalized Zoom link.

Webinars will also be live streamed on the Teach-In’s YouTube channel the day of the event at youtube.com/@nationalbiodiversityteachin and its Facebook page at @natbioteachin.

Las Becas

ROTARIA MARIANNA ZEIDLER

Especialista en Educación Multicultural y Lingüística Global.

Enero es el mes Rotario del Servicio Ocupacional. Las solicitudes para las becas a otorgarse en el 2024 ya se están publicando. ¿Qué son las “becas”? ¡Sorprendentemente, no mucha gente está enterada de lo que son! ¡Dinero! ¡Dinero gratis para estudiar!

Este dinero no necesita devolverse. Las becas son una ayuda financiera designada para ayudar a estudiantes a pagar sus estudios superiores. A diferencia de los préstamos estudiantiles, las becas son premios financieros.

Sin embargo, los estudiantes o individuos que deseen una beca necesitan pedirlas.

¿De Dónde Se Obtienen las Becas?

Las becas son otorgadas por varias fuentes que incluyen clubes, organizaciones, fundaciones, negocios, colegios y universidades. Las becas se pueden basar en mérito, necesidad, o una combinación de ambos, proporcionando oportunidades para que la gente continue estudiando con menor carga financiera. Pagar por la educación superior con becas es inteligente.

Pero muchos están confundidos con respecto a las becas y cómo funcionan. Puede que una sola beca no sea suficiente para cubrir todos los costos. El solicitar varias becas de varias fuentes, ayuda a reducir la cantidad de dinero que se necesite para costearse los estudios. Y sí, todos pueden solicitar y ganarse múltiples becas.

¿Dónde Se Encuentran las Becas?

Hay numerosas fuentes de dinero para pagar diferentes áreas de estudio o sus costos.

Muchas becas son otorgadas por organizaciones a individuos que prometen beneficiar su misión y/o metas. Por ejemplo, una asociacion de trabajadores de la construcción patrocinaría a individuos que deseen seguir una carrera en construcción; tal como la asociación de mecánicos de auto, o la de asistentes médicos, o contadores, lo haría para los que postulan a esas carreras. Todos los colegios y universidades tienen una lista de fundaciones que ofrecen becas para obtener diferentes títulos. Muchas escuelas tienen concilios integrados por comerciantes u organizaciones que buscan candidatos que quieran estudiar en sus especialidades laborales.

Las becas se encuentran investigando una variedad de fuentes que incluyen: • La oficina de consejeros de la escuela secundaria • Las oficinas de ayuda financiera en los Colegios y Universidades • Buscadores de becas en línea • Organizaciones de la comunidad tales como clubes, fundaciones y negocios • Asociaciones profesionales relacionadas con el campo de estudio

¿Cómo Ganarse las Becas?

• Primero: Hay que solicitarlas. Si no se piden, no se obtienen.

• Segundo: La solicitud debe de reflejar quién es el solicitante. La persona que lee las solicitudes no conoce a ninguno de los que las remiten. ¿Cómo llamarle la atención? ¿Qué se puede poner en el ensayo para que el que lo

lea quiera conocerlo(a)?

¿Cómo Solicitar Becas?

Cada tipo de beca tiene su propio proceso que puede incluir su remisión en línea o por correo, el escribir ensayos, el proveer cartas de recomendación, o el envío de certificados de estudios y calificaciones. Hay que asegurarse de seguir las instrucciones de la respectiva solicitud y de adjuntar todos los materiales antes de que el plazo de presentación se venza.

¿Cómo Calificar para las Becas?

El calificar para cualquier cosa requiere “buen carácter” - nadie le regala nada a nadie que no sea “buena gente”.

Entre lo que se considera buen carácter, está la integridad, el respeto, y la cortesía. La responsabilidad, el dar cuentas, la diligencia, la perseverancia, la auto-disciplina y auto-control, junto a la justicia, a la equidad y el estar libre de prejuicios, son rasgos que hacen que una persona sea simpática y agradable.

Obviamente hay toda una serie de certificados, cartas de recomendación y otros documentos que se piden. Sin embargo, si la solicitud no refleja un compromiso y deseo de servir a la sociedad como una persona útil, no hay supervisor, entrevistador o empleador que vaya a considerar a tal solicitante como candidato que valga la pena.

Scholarships ROTARIAN MARIANNA ZEIDLER

Specializes in Multicultural Education and Global Linguistics

January is Rotary’s Vocational Service month. The 2024 applications for scholarships have already been made available.

What are “Scholarships”? Surprisingly, not too many people know!

Money! Free money to study! This money does not need to be returned. Scholarships are financial aid awards designed to help students pay for an undergraduate or graduate degree. These financial awards differ from student loans because they don’t have to be paid back. Students or invididuals that want a scholarship need to apply for them, though.

Where do scholarships come from?

Scholarships come from various sources, including clubs, organizations, charities, foundations, businesses, colleges and universities, the government, and individuals.

These scholarships can be merit-based, need-based, or a combination of both, giving you opportunities to continue your education without taking on a significant financial burden.

Paying for your college education with scholarship money is smart. But many students are confused about what scholarships are and how they work.

One single scholarship may or may not cover all the costs, but applying for several Becas del Rotary para Capacitación scholarships from different sources helps Técnica reduce the amount of money a student may Las solicitudes de becas para capacita- need.

Most scholarships are provided by organi-

zations to individuals that will potentially benefit their mission or goals. For example, an association or union of construction workers may sponsor individuals that seek careers in construction; as an association of auto-mechanics may; or that of medical assistants, accountants, etc. All colleges have a list of foundations that offer scholarships for different studies. Many schools have business councils integrated by businesses that look for potential career seekers in their specific field.

Scholarships can be found through a variety of sources, including: • Your high school guidance office • College and university financial aid offices • Online scholarship search engines • Community organizations, such as local clubs, foundations, and businesses • Professional associations related to your field of study

How to win scholarships?

• First: You need to apply. If you don’t ask, you don’t get.

• Second: Your application should reflect who you are. The person that reads applications does not know you, or anyone applying. How can you call that person’s attention? What can you write on your essay to prompt the reader to want to meet you?

How to apply for scholarships?

Each scholarship has its own application process, including submitting an online or paper application, writing essays, providing letters of recommendation, or submitting transcripts and test scores. Be sure to carefully follow the application instructions and submit all required materials by the deadline.

How to qualify for a scholarship?

Qualifying for anything requires “good character” - nobody will give anything to anyone that is “not nice”.

Among good character traits are integrity, respect, and courtesy. Responsibility, including accountability, diligence, perseverance, self-management skills, and self-control, added to fairness, including justice and freedom from prejudice, are traits that make a person nice and likeable.

Of course, there are a set of transcripts, letters of recommendations and other documents requested with any application.

However, if the application does not reflect a commitment, and willingness to serve society as a useful individual, no reviewer, interviewer, or employer will consider an applicant as a worthy candidate.

SALUD Y BIENESTAR I 13

Carolina Pikacho Fronteras de la Notiica - EFEsalud Karma es una acción o energía trascendente derivada de los actos, palabras y pensamientos de los individuos.

El karma expone que por cada acción que se realiza se produce una reacción. Se usa para mejorar las actitudes y las intenciones, ya que, devuelve las malas acciones obedeciendo como a una ley divina.

El karma tiene leyes que conectan con la psicología humanista. Algunas de ellas son las siguientes.

Cumpliendo con estas leyes, la persona va a encontrar una guía para la convivencia con los demás y podrá encontrar una satisfacción en su vivir.

LEY DE CAUSA Y EFECTO

Ley del crecimiento

Ley del enfoque

Vamos a cosechar en nuestra vida, aquello que hemos sembrado. Lo que ponemos en el mundo/sociedad es lo que vuelve a nosotros.

La energía negativa enviada a otros volverá de nuevo a nosotros. Cada acto tiene una consecuencia aunque no lo veamos de manera exacta cuando actuamos.

El ser humano no nace hecho sino que puede crecer y mejorar. Cuando uno se da cuenta de que tiene envidia y celos y se dice que puede mejorarse así mismo centrándose en sus actitudes propias. Entonces estará dentro de la senda de crecimiento personal.

No se puede pensar en dos cosas al mismo tiempo. Tenemos que entrenar nuestra atención e ir poniéndonos pequeñas metas para ir subiendo peldaños.

Cuando aparece un problema podemos pensar en ajustar nuestra mirada al mundo exterior y ver esa vicisitud como una oportunidad.

LEY DE LA HUMILDAD Cuando aceptas la realidad, consigues que se deje de repetir el problema. Aceptar que estamos implicados en nuestros sufrimientos nos libra de mantenernos en la misma inercia. A esto se le llama actitud de humildad.

Ley de responsabilidad Eres responsable de tus elecciones, errores y éxitos. Según las leyes del Karma todo aquello que nos sucede es un reflejo del propio interior. La felicidad es una consecuencia de haber sido responsables en nuestra vida.

Ley del aquí y ahora El ser humano necesita estar en el presente. Con un exceso de pasado puede llegar la depresión, y con un exceso de futuro la ansiedad, por lo que nos tenemos que centrar en el aquí y el ahora.

DOLOR

CRÓNICO

Quienes padecen enfermedades crónicas o dolor crónico, corren el riesgo de caer en una espiral negativa de depresión, tensión e irritabilidad.

Carolina Pikacho Fronteras de la Noticia - MedlinePlus l primer paso es aceptar el problema; luego, hay que buscar herramientas para controlarlo. Con el dolor crónico no hay tregua: está ahí​́ todo el tiempo, y eso puede tener un gran impacto en la vida diaria.

A diferencia del dolor agudo, que nos alerta sobre la presencia de lesiones o enfermedades, el crónico, por lo general, no cumple ninguna función.

A menudo se le considera “inútil”, y si bien al principio aparece como consecuencia de algún golpe o para alertarnos sobre la presencia de cierto trastorno crónico (cáncer, artritis, etc.), se prolonga mucho mas allá​́ del tiempo aceptable para desempeñar su papel. Muchas veces ni el paciente ni los médicos son capaces de identificar las causas precisas del malestar.

Normalmente, quienes padecen este tipo de dolor reducen su nivel de actividad, tanto en el ámbito laboral como en el deportivo y el recreativo. También dejan de pasar tiempo con sus familiares y amigos.

Es muy frustrante no poder hacer las cosas que les gustan; hay quienes incluso llegan a perder su trabajo o alguna relación. También son comunes los casos de depresión moderada a grave. El mundo de la persona puede tornarse incómodo y oscuro.

Como si esto fuera poco, ciertos estados mentales, como la depresión, la ansiedad y el estrés, pueden empeorar el problema.

Por otro lado, cuando uno hace las cosas que le gustan y vive con la certeza de que ni el peor que el dolor no define tu vida entera; es tan solo una parte de ella.

Con dolor o sin él, todos tenemos días difíciles. Es necesario prever esos episodios de malestar intenso e idear algunas estrategias para reincorporarnos al buen camino. He aquí algunos consejos.

Aunque es normal sentirse rebasado en estas situaciones, lo mejor que puedes hacer es tratar de entender el dolor y la manera en que este repercute en tus emociones y estilo de vida.

Así podrás superarlo, y también los problemas que causa.

“El filósofo griego Aristóteles creía que el dolor era una emoción que podía conquistarse con la razón."

La intensidad de un dolor que no para, varía. Hay días en los que parece tolerable.

Otras veces, sin razón aparente, el malestar se exacerba tanto que nos obliga a faltar al trabajo, perder algún compromiso familiar o cancelar unas anheladas vacaciones.

Son muchos los pacientes que temen pasar por mentirosos.

Para hacer frente a esta situación, investiga lo más que puedas sobre tu enfermedad y sobre los factores que detonan el dolor. Reserva unos minutos para hacer ejercicios de respiración y visualización positiva.

Esto te ayudará a sobrellevar el dolor físico y la ansiedad relacionada con su carácter impredecible.

E

Sigue una rutina. Por difícil que parezca, levántate y haz tus actividades. Organizar el día en torno a ciertas actividades básicas te dará la sensación de que el dolor está bajo control.

Transforma el enojo en energía. Es difícil conservar la calma cuando despiertas con dolor. Trata de darle un buen uso a esa energía mental; controla tus emociones y pon en marcha estrategias para lidiar con el dolor. Recuerda que ese mal episodio no durará para siempre.

Trabaja con el dolor. Esto es mucho mejor que malgastar tus fuerzas en pelear con él. Incluso en los peores momentos, tú puedes decidir qué hacer con tu energía. Es posible combatir el dolor con enojo y desilusión, o puedes decidir aceptarlo y seguir adelante con tu vida.

No pierdas la perspectiva. Nuestros temores con respecto a las consecuencias de la enfermedad suelen ser un simple reflejo de aspectos que debemos trabajar a nivel personal. Lo único que logras al preocuparte es exacerbar el dolor.

Busca ayuda profesional. En vez de dejar que las preocupaciones te consuman y empeoren el dolor, pídele a un médico o psicólogo que te ayude a identificar y enfrentar tus miedos.

Mide tus fuerzas. Las actividades extenuantes ahora te llevarán más tiempo. Si consideras que el esfuerzo de encargarte de dos cosas en un día tendrá una repercusión negativa en tu salud, distribuye las actividades a lo largo de la semana.

Medita. Siéntate en silencio y observa (sin reaccionar) cómo respondes a los pensamientos que acuden a tu mente. Esto te ayudará a tomar conciencia de tu relación con la ansiedad y el dolor.

Carolina Pikacho, Fronteras de la Noticia - infobae.com Sofía Vergara, la estrella latina que conquistó Hollywood en Modern Family, reveló varios de los retos más exigentes de su carrera al interpretar a Griselda Blanco, la célebre “Viuda Negra” del narcotráfico en Colombia.

“Fue mucho trabajo, mucha preparación”, confesó Vergara. La actriz se sumergió en la investigación del contexto histórico y psicológico para encarnar a “una madre, una mujer colombiana... que se convertía en este monstruo”. También destacó lo difícil que fue entender la naturaleza multifacética de Blanco, una narcotraficante cuya figura controversial marcó una época en el crimen organizado durante los años 70 y 80.

La serie limitada de Netflix, creada por el director de Narcos, Eric Newman, y dirigida por Andrés Baiz, presenta a Vergara como la asesina reina de Miami, mientras explora la historia del ascenso y la caída de la Reina de Cocaine Cowboys en dicha ciudad. Además de ser la protagonista, la actriz es productora ejecutiva y comparte escena con la estrella de la música latina Karol G, quien interpreta a Carla, una confidente de Griselda.

Juliana Adien Martínez, quien encarna a June en la serie, no se escatimó en elogios hacia Vergara en un protagónico sin precedentes en su carrera. “Mucha gente la conoce como Gloria (su personaje en Modern Family), por ejemplo, y verla meterse de lleno en un papel dramático, adueñarse de él, estar ahí, ser transformadora. Creo que la gente se va a quedar sorprendida, emocionada, cautivada. Va a ser increíble verlo”, aseguró.

En la rueda de prensa de la serie en Madrid, la actriz de 51 años contó algunos de los mayores de desafíos a los que tuvo que someterse, como interminables horas de maquillaje para caracterizarse como el personaje, que incluían postizos, dientes falsos y muchas capas y accesorios ‘prostéticos’.

Sin embargo, había dos cosas que le obsesionaba hacer bien, ya que no las controlaba en absoluto: fumar y drogarse, ya que en la serie tenía que hacerlo con la mayor de las solturas y de manera repetida, en ‘modo experto’. “A mis cincuenta años, he tenido que aprender a coger un cigarrillo y a meterme coca”, confesó.

Carlos Morales, Fronteras de la Noticia - sensacine.com Luego de que la saga de Kingsman haya llegado al final de su recorrido, el director Matthew Vaughn está listo para presentarle al mundo su nueva superproducción. Argylle, no solo reúne a algunas de las figuras más destacadas de la industria de Hollywood, sino que, en palabras del director es una propuesta original que podría “reinventar el género de espías” y que ya tiene planeado fundar una próxima franquicia.

Según un reporte de Deadline, el director tiene la esperanza de lanzar una serie precuela de Argylle que presentaría una versión más joven del espía que da el título a la película. Incluso el anuncio anticipa que la estrella de Enola Holmes, Louis Partridge, podría interpretar el rol principal de esa producción.

Cabe mencionar que el proyecto estaría en las primeras etapas de desarrollo y que el éxito de la primera película será clave para determinar el futuro de la franquicia y si es capaz de avanzar con sus ambiciosos planes.

ry Cavill interpreta al personaje que le da nombre al film: el famoso agente Argylle.

Bryce Dallas Howard, por su parte, da vida a Elly Conway una escritora de novelas que se ve arrastrada en una aventura a gran escala cuando la trama de sus libros comienzan a reflejar la realidad. El reparto estelar de la película también incluye a Sam Rockwell, Bryan Cranston, Catherine O’Hara, Dua Lipa, Ariana DeBose, John Cena y Samuel L. Jackson.

Si bien la historia de Argylle tiene un material base de donde partir, es curioso que se trata de una novela que todavía no se publicó y que fue desarrollada por una escritora (la misma Conway que le da el nombre al personaje de Dallas Howard) de la que se sabe muy poco.

Debido a esto, se ha puesto en duda su existencia y hasta se ha especulado que, incluso, podría tratarse de la cantante Taylor Swift.

El director de la película ha desmentido esta teoría, aunque ha admitido que Swift inspiró la inclusión de un gato Scottish Fold en la cinta.

Argylle, lo nuevo de Vaughn, tiene previsto llegar a las salas el próximo 2 de febrero.

Su música está muy aferrada a la tradición gallega y se mueve en sonidos folk, enérgicos y festivos sin dejar de ser reflexivo. Su sonido se ha afianzado en los primeros adelantos de su álbum debut, canciones como "Velocidad", "Rocíos", "Amigo" y "Aquí todavía".

Para presentar "Peregrino", Ares prepara un directo con una banda de hasta seis multinstrumentistas entre los que están la cantautora Begut y el líder de La Sonrisa de Julia, Marcos Cao. Violines, guitarras, sintetizadores y percusiones acompañan al gallego en su puesta en escena.
