  • Destination Report
    Miami , Flori daBuenos Aires, Argentina Overview Introduction Buenos Aires, Argentina, is a wonderful combination of sleek skyscrapers and past grandeur, a collision of the ultrachic and tumbledown. Still, there has always been an undercurrent of melancholy in B.A. (as it is affectionately known by expats who call Buenos Aires home), which may help explain residents' devotion to that bittersweet expression of popular culture in Argentina, the tango. Still performed—albeit much less frequently now—in the streets and cafes, the tango has a romantic and nostalgic nature that is emblematic of Buenos Aires itself. Travel to Buenos Aires is popular, especially with stops in the neighborhoods of San Telmo, Palermo— and each of its colorful smaller divisions—and the array of plazas that help make up Buenos Aires tours. Highlights Sights—Inspect the art-nouveau and art-deco architecture along Avenida de Mayo; see the "glorious dead" in the Cementerio de la Recoleta and the gorgeously chic at bars and cafes in the same neighborhood; shop for antiques and see the tango dancers at Plaza Dorrego and the San Telmo Street Fair on Sunday; tour the old port district of La Boca and the colorful houses along its Caminito street; cheer at a soccer match between hometown rivals Boca Juniors and River Plate (for the very adventurous only). Museums—Museo de Arte Latinoamericano de Buenos Aires (MALBA: Coleccion Costantini); Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes; Museo Municipal de Arte Hispano-Americano Isaac Fernandez Blanco; Museo Historico Nacional; Museo de la Pasion Boquense (Boca football); one of two tango museums: Museo Casa Carlos Gardel or Museo Mundial del Tango.

O, mejor dicho, NO ALCANZAN PARA PODER DECIRLO TODO. El Gráfico está tan feliz como todos los argentinos. Esta noche de histórico domingo, sentimos que su alma sonríe y en cada uno de los teclados, los periodistas que hacen El Gráfico deslizan su emoción. Es fácil en- tender que se trata de un día especial. En esta hora -en que queremos decirlo todo- NOS DAMOS CUENTA DE QUE SOLO HAY UNA MANE- RA DE EXPRESARNOS: brindar esta edición en la que volcamos con conceptos, fotos y testimonios EL DIA MAS GLORIOSO DEL FUTBOL ARGENTINO. Para nosotros no es el final de nada; acaso -¿por qué no confesarlo?- podría ser el comienzo de todo. Estamos felices por el triunfo de la Selección y, ya más calmados del primer impacto, estamos felices por todo cuanto hicimos desde el primer día del proceso, al que también podríamos llamar “La Era Menotti” o el “Operativo Mundial 78”. Si no dijéramos que hemos recibido muchas felicitaciones por nuestro trabajo antes y durante el Mundial seríamos insensibles. Nos gustó que nos reconocieran el esfuerzo (ojo, esfuerzo no es sacrificio), pero no encontrábamos la forma adecuada para el agradecimiento. Decir gra- cias es tan convencional como decir “es nuestra obligación”. Detrás de la obligación pusimos el alma del periodista. Y el alma del periodista es su amor, su pasión y su deseo. El Mundial nos obligó a todos los ar- gentinos a esforzarnos; El Gráfico cumplió su papel: durante este mes de junio realizamos las cuatro ediciones normales, más otras tres ediciones extras.

  • Boca-River.Pdf
    Boca-River, historias de una pasión Luciano Wernicke 2013 Introducción: Pasión. No existe un vocablo más apropiado para definir el Superclásico. Boca Juniors y River Plate son los protagonistas del desafío futbolero más trascendente de la Argentina y del espectáculo deportivo más electrizante del mundo. La ferviente convocatoria de estos dos equipos ha trascendido las fronteras y ha trepado al Olimpo de los grandes shows. En Inglaterra se asegura que no hay que morir sin gozar, al menos una vez en la vida, de un Superclásico en la Bombonera o el Monumental. Boca-River, River-Boca. Se aman, se odian, se necesitan. No hay Superclásico sin uno de ellos. No hay fiesta si no están cara a cara. Los fanáticos xeneizes celebraron la máxima desgracia de sus primos pero, puertas adentro, a la hora del balance, debieron conceder que el título boquense de esa temporada no fue del todo legítimo: sin cruzarse con River en esa senda ganadora, el triunfo tuvo otro sabor. En 2013, los dos clubes más grandes de Argentina celebraron el centenario del Superclásico. 1913-2013, un siglo de fútbol, de gloria, de fanatismo. Historias de Boca 1) Nucazo El 29 de septiembre de 1996 se disputó un Superclásico apasionante que tuvo un final insólito. El duelo, que tuvo como escenario la Bombonera, había arrancado a favor de la escuadra xeneize, con un tanto de Roberto Pompei a los 5 minutos. River no se quedó e igualó a los 21 gracias al eficiente atacante chileno Marcelo Salas. En la segunda mitad, el uruguayo Gabriel Cedrés volvió a adelantar a Boca con un tiro penal, y diez minutos más tarde Juan Pablo Sorín consiguió un nuevo empate que parecía definitivo.
