VARIDESK® and Dallas Mavericks’ J.J. Barea Team Up to Renovate Puerto Rico Schools and Donate Desks and School Supplies

August 13, 2018

DALLAS and AGUADA, Puerto Rico, Aug. 13, 2018 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — VARIDESK® teamed up with Dallas Mavericks guard J.J. Barea, through his non-profit foundation, to help renovate four schools and bring much needed desks and schools supplies to Puerto Rico as students head back to school this week. For eight-year-old Hector Torres, who attends Juan Lino Santiago elementary school, it means he and his classmates get brand-new standing desks and a renovated, freshly painted basketball court.

Several months ago, VARIDESK, a company that provides active workspaces solutions – from height adjustable desks, to storage solutions, to moveable walls – acquired a company that creates standing desks for students. “Many schools in Puerto Rico were all but destroyed – and many of the existing schools are being consolidated without enough resources,” said Jason McCann, CEO and co-founder of VARIDESK. “We wanted to help with an immediate solution that will have a lasting impact and set students up for success.”

That led to a partnership with J.J. Barea. A Puerto Rican native, J.J. attended Academia Inmaculada Concepcion in Mayaguez. He returned to his alma mater and three other of the hardest hit schools on the west side of the island. Together, J.J, VARIDESK and community volunteers, helped build desks and paint and rebuild basketball courts.

“The schools here still need a lot of help to recover from the hurricane, which is why I’m so thankful for this partnership with VARIDESK,” said Barea. “When I come home to the school I grew up in, it breaks my heart to see the devastation. I’m hoping this effort will bring hope to the students here and encourage them to keep pursuing their education. The desks are amazing, and I think the kids are going to love it. For me when I was a kid, if I could have been standing in a classroom, I would have done a lot better.”

With help from CEVA Logistics, VARIDESK donated nearly 500 desks for students, teachers and administrators – valued at more than $300,000 of products. The effort culminated with a basketball camp for local children and a special ceremony to rededicate the schools.

“It’s been amazing to be here in Puerto Rico,” said McCann. “The volunteers, the community, everybody that has been involved with us were incredible. The reward my team and I are getting is actually much bigger than simply donating 500 desks. We feel the heart, the pure love, and the pride of the people – it’s about those things and the positive impact we can have. It just shows you such great hope after so much pain has hit this community, everybody is pulling together to do the right thing and we’re honored to be a part of it.”

With Refreshed Styling, New Sport Trim and Standard Honda Sensing®, Honda Keeps Its Foot to the Floor by Introducing the 2019 Civic Sedan and Coupe

August 13, 2018

Honda will soon release a newly refreshed Civic Coupe and Sedan for the 2019 model year, with updated styling, a new Sport trim, and Honda Sensing® now standard on all trim levels.

TORRANCE, California, Aug. 13, 2018 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Building on the highly acclaimed 10^th-generation Civic lineup and offering customers more of what they love about the model, the refreshed 2019 Honda Civic Sedan and Coupe include updated styling, a new Sport trim for both body styles and standard Honda Sensing^® technology on all trims.

The updated Civic Sedan and Coupe are the latest salvos in the 10^th-generation Civic’s aggressive launch cadence that has averaged a new variant every four months over the past three years since the Civic Sedan launched in the fall of 2015.[1] Civic is targeting its third consecutive year as America’s #1 retail-selling car and its 8^th straight year as America’s #1 retail-selling compact car[2], as well as being the most popular car in America with under-35-year-olds for eight of the past nine years.

The 10^th-gen Civic’s aggressive and sporty design is one of the most liked attributes among Civic buyers[3] and the Civic Coupe was the top ranked vehicle of its body type in the J.D. Power’s 2017 APEAL study among compact cars. The 2019 Sedan and Coupe turn it up a notch with evolutionary styling updates, front and rear. Changes at the front further accentuate the model’s low and wide athletic stance and sporty good looks with a new piano black upper fascia “wing,” restyled lower fascia, bumper and lower grille, a full-width front splitter, chrome side pod accents, and updated halogen or LED headlights. A chrome accent on the lower rear bumper of the Sedan and new wheel designs for both models – including larger 18-inch rims on the Touring trim – round out the exterior styling updates on the returning trims.

The new Civic Sport trim, positioned between the LX and EX, offers the looks and features budget-conscious enthusiasts are looking for. Civic Sport’s increased attitude comes from a piano black lower front fascia, side pod accents and, for Sedan, an added rear decklid spoiler, plus a splitter-style rear lower bumper incorporating a chrome polygonal exhaust finisher similar to Civic Si. Larger 18-inch (+1 inch) 10-spoke alloy wheels with Berlina Black finish complete the Sport’s more aggressive look. The Sport trim features a high-revving 2.0-liter 16-valve DOHC VTEC^® engine mated to either a smooth and efficient CVT with G-Shift Control or a slick-shifting 6-speed manual. Adding more tech to the Sport, the new trim receives the updated 7-inch Display Audio with Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™ integration and volume button.

Advancing Honda’s commitment to make Honda Sensing^® standard equipment on all vehicles by the 2022 model year, all trims of the 2019 Civic Sedan and Coupe from LX to Touring feature Honda Sensing^® technology, which includes Collision Mitigation Braking System™ (CMBS™) with Forward Collision Warning; Road Departure Mitigation (RDM) incorporating Lane Departure Warning (LDW); Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS); and Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC). For the 2019 model year, Honda Sensing^® is standard or available equipment on all Honda car and light truck nameplates.

First introduced in the fall of 2015 in Sedan and later Coupe form, the 10^th-generation Civic lineup includes the European-inspired Hatchback, the performance-focused Civic Si Coupe and Si Sedan and the world’s fastest front-wheel-drive car, the Civic Type R. Cumulative sales of the 10^th-generation Civic will surpass 1 million units this year. Since its introduction, the 10^th-generation Civic has amassed dozens of major industry awards and accolades including the 2016 North American Car of the Year award, 2017 Kelley Blue Book Overall Best Buy of the Year, 2018 Car and Driver 10Best and 2018 AUTOMOBILE All-Stars award. All Civic Sedan and Coupe models sold in the U.S. are produced at Honda’s plants in Greensburg, Indiana and Alliston, Ontario. The Civic’s 1.5-liter VTEC^® Turbo and 2.0-liter VTEC^® engines are produced in Anna, Ohio and Alliston, Ontario.

Alcohol Justice Reports Senator Wiener Targets Riverside County for 4 a.m. Late Night Party Zones

August 10, 2018

SAN RAFAEL, California, Aug. 10, 2018 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — California Alcohol Policy Alliance (CAPA), and Alcohol Justice, are questioning the logic of Senator Scott Wiener’s rush to add additional Riverside County cities to his floundering 4 a.m. bar bill – SB 905. Palm Springs, Cathedral City, and Coachella were recently amended into his bill to make them “pilot cities” for Wiener’s dangerous late night drinking experiment. It should be noted that Assemblymember Eduardo Garcia was suspiciously the deciding “yes” vote to move SB 905 out the Assembly Governmental Organization Committee. The bill is currently in the “Suspense” file in Assembly Appropriations Committee. It was in this committee last year that Wieners first attempt to push a later last call bill failed.

“Senator Scott Wiener is desperate for additional support on his second attempt to extend last call,” stated Bruce Lee Livingston, Executive Director / CEO of Alcohol Justice. “The sting of failing last year to push bar times to 4 a.m. is driving his devious strategy this year. Riverside County is now in his sites to experiment with noisy and dangerous early morning drinking with the acquiescence of mayors in Coachella, Palm Springs and Cathedral City.” Livingston added: “Cities like Palm Desert and La Quinta will suffer DUIs and deaths from patrons, bar-hopping to the later last call cities.”

SB 905 would launch a dangerous nine-city, five-year experiment that would expose over 76% of California’s population to increased alcohol-related harm. The state currently suffers over 10,500 alcohol-related deaths and $34 billion in costs annually. The California Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) reported recently that fatal DUI is a chronic, worsening problem for the state. Between 2014 and 2016, alcohol-related crash deaths rose 21%. That number can only go up with two additional hours of alcohol consumption. Thus, the only benefit of selling alcohol between 2 and 4 a.m. will be greater profits to bar, restaurant, and club owners in the party zones the bill will create. While the public and all levels of government will be forced to continue to cover the costs of mitigating the harms that follow.

Earlier this week at a press event in Los Angeles, opponents to the bill were adamant about stopping the measure. “Today we are here to speak with a loud, collective voice that residents of Los Angeles WILL NOT be lab rats in Senator Scott Wiener’s 4 a.m. bar bill experiment,” stated Kurtwood Smith, Actor and Activist. “And neither will the residents of the 8 other cities and surrounding “splash zones” throughout the state that this bill threatens. Only a dumba** would value nightlife over all life and vote YES for this bill. California does not need Wiener’s dangerous nine-city, five-year experiment,” he added.

There is clear and compelling data that Wiener has consistently ignored or dismissed from a U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) task force led by Jonathan Fielding, M.D., M.P.H., M.A., M.B.A, Distinguished Professor UCLA Fielding School of Public Health and UCLA Geffen School of Medicine. The U.S. Community Preventive Services Task Force found in a peer-reviewed, global meta-analysis that every 2-hour increase in last-call times results in greater vehicle crash injuries and E.R. admissions. (Hahn et al., 2010) Dr. Fielding stated, “…I have no reason to believe that an increase in hours of sale anywhere in the U.S. would have different results.”

“SB 905 is not good for Los Angeles County, Riverside County, San Francisco County, Sacramento County or any of California’s 58 counties,” said Livingston. “It promises greater revenue through greater alcohol sales, but you can’t have the revenue without more noise, more drunkenness, more street fighting and more drunk driving. That extra two hours will produce extra money for the businesses at the expense of the community.”

The bill’s author continues to mischaracterize SB 905 as a “local control” measure. But there is consensus among opponents that there is no such thing as local control in alcohol policy and that the harm from one city’s decision to change last-call times will “splash” over to every surrounding community. SB 905, like the three previous failed 4 a.m. bar bills over the past 15 years, will spread alcohol overconsumption, loss of life, injury, and nuisance across the state.

“It’s not just about DUIs,” added Livingston. “New studies show that the annual number of 25-to 34-year-olds who died from alcohol-related liver disease nearly tripled between 1999 and 2016. Liver disease at such a young age is the result of heavy and frequent alcohol consumption. Extending last call to 4 a.m. will help more young people die from harmful consumption.”

The bill now heads to the Assembly floor. There is no language in SB 905 for additional funding for a true “pilot study”, or for a definitive source of revenue for local enforcement or emergency services to deal with projected increases in alcohol-related violence and traffic crashes after 4 a.m. However, between 2016 and 2018, Assemblymember Eduardo Garcia received over $50,000 in contributions from alcohol-related companies.

San Antonio Celebrates Día de Los Muertos Like No Other City in the U.S.

August 9, 2018

SAN ANTONIO, Aug. 9, 2018 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — When it comes to Día de Los Muertos, or Day of the Dead, there’s no place in the United States that observes this traditionally Mexican holiday quite like San Antonio. This year, as the city celebrates its Tricentennial anniversary, there will be more than 20 unique events from October 20 through November 3 — more than any other city in Texas, and likely any other city in the country.

Mexican roots run deep in San Antonio (which is a previous colonial capital of New Spain and state capital of the Mexican state of Coahuila y Tejas). The city is a three-hour drive from the U.S.-Mexico border, and more than 60 percent of the city’s population is of Mexican descent. This cultural heritage is evident through San Antonio’s unwavering celebratory spirit — the city hosts a seemingly endless roster of festivals and events each year, including the 10-day-long Fiesta San Antonio in April — and also is distinctly felt when it comes to Día de Los Muertos.

This year’s events run the gamut, from small gatherings with traditional altars and face painting to multiple-day festivals featuring live music, stilt walkers, Mexican cuisine and festive parades. In addition to official celebrations, restaurants and cafes across San Antonio will showcase altars, customary décor and fresh-baked pan de muerto, a popular type of sweet bread that is also used as an offering to loved ones who have passed. This collective spirit offers an unforgettable way to experience the city, as well as to gain insight into this unique, historic holiday which views death with lightness and humor rather than fear. Most events are family friendly, allowing children to learn about the rich traditions of the holiday, helping it continue for generations to come.

For a calendar of events, visit here.

About Visit San Antonio:
Visit San Antonio is a 501(c)6, and serves as the sales and marketing arm of San Antonio as a leading leisure and meetings destination. San Antonio welcomes 20.9 million overnight leisure visitors annually. Hospitality is one of the top five industries in the city, contributing $13.6 billion into the local economy and employing more than 130,000.

August 9, 2018

GUAYNABO, Puerto Rico, Aug. 9, 2018 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — At AT&T¹, we’ve invested more than $275 million in our Puerto Rico wireless and wired networks during 2015-2017. These investments boost reliability, coverage, speed and overall performance for residents and businesses. They also improve critical services that support public safety and first responders.

In 2017, AT&T made more than 560 wireless network upgrades in Puerto Rico. Notable network enhancements included:

More than 500 network capacity upgrades
New cell site construction
Nearly a dozen in-building coverage projects

Since the formation of the FirstNet public-private partnership a little over a year ago, governors from all 50 states, 5 territories and D.C. recognized the value of FirstNet, joining in its mission to strengthen and modernize public safety’s communications capabilities.

FirstNet is a new nationwide communications platform dedicated to America’s public safety community. As we build, deploy and evolve FirstNet, we will build upon our current and planned investments in Puerto Rico to help ensure public safety’s network delivers the coverage and cutting-edge capabilities first responders expect – today and for decades to come.
