Towards a Brighter Future Towards A Brighter Future Parks and Recreation Master Plan for El Paso September 2014 Copyright 2014 Halff Associates, Inc. and City of El Paso September 2, 2014 Mr. Tracy Novak, Director City of El Paso Parks and Recreation Department PO Box 1890 El Paso, Texas 79950-1890 Reference: El Paso Parks and Recreation Master Plan Dear Mr. Novak: Halff Associates Inc. is pleased to submit the final Parks and Recreation Master Plan for El Paso. This master plan captures the many observations and findings developed as part of the park planning process, and matches those to the dreams and expectations of the citizens of El Paso. The recommendations encompass the many varied aspects of a large park system such as El Paso’s, ranging from facilities, operations, athletics, and aquatics to management, funding and other key governance issues. This plan is far reaching but reasonable in terms of its recommendations, and it articulates what the citizens of El Paso would like to see their park system become. As in any comprehensive analysis, this document identifies gaps or key needs in your parks system, and gears its recommendations towards addressing those needs. It takes into account the impact that voter approved 2012 park bonds will have in resolving many of those needs, and notes where gaps remain in the longer term. Time and time again the citizens of El Paso have supported actions to transform the City’s parks into a world class system. This plan embraces their desire for a great park system, and helps guide the way to a brighter future. We deeply appreciate the opportunity to have worked with you, your staff, and the citizens of El Paso, and look forward to El Paso’s bright future. Sincerely, HALFF ASSOCIATES, INC.

  • “The Stories Behind the Songs”
    “The Stories Behind The Songs” John Henderson The Stories Behind The Songs A compilation of “inside stories” behind classic country hits and the artists associated with them John Debbie & John By John Henderson (Arrangement by Debbie Henderson) A fascinating and entertaining look at the life and recording efforts of some of country music’s most talented singers and songwriters 1 Author’s Note My background in country music started before I even reached grade school. I was four years old when my uncle, Jack Henderson, the program director of 50,000 watt KCUL-AM in Fort Worth/Dallas, came to visit my family in 1959. He brought me around one hundred and fifty 45 RPM records from his station (duplicate copies that they no longer needed) and a small record player that played only 45s (not albums). I played those records day and night, completely wore them out. From that point, I wanted to be a disc jockey. But instead of going for the usual “comedic” approach most DJs took, I tried to be more informative by dropping in tidbits of a song’s background, something that always fascinated me. Originally with my “Classic Country Music Stories” site on Facebook (which is still going strong), and now with this book, I can tell the whole story, something that time restraints on radio wouldn’t allow. I began deejaying as a career at the age of sixteen in 1971, most notably at Nashville’s WENO-AM and WKDA- AM, Lakeland, Florida’s WPCV-FM (past winner of the “Radio Station of the Year” award from the Country Music Association), and Springfield, Missouri’s KTTS AM & FM and KWTO-AM, but with syndication and automation which overwhelmed radio some twenty-five years ago, my final DJ position ended in 1992.

The report chronicles the opportunities and challenges faced on the Texas-Mexico Border, and covers topics ranging from higher and pubic education to access to capital and credit, to immigration and border security. Our Border is home to a proud and resilient people who live in fast growing communities, work hard to educate their children, and are full of hope for a prosperous future, which is the heart of the American Dream. Today, that dream is distant. Texas' "low-tax, low-service ideology" denies opportunity, lowers standards for quality education, and destroys access to health care for millions of low and middle-income Texans. Texas continues to lead the U.S.

  • Culturing on the Borderlands—A Critical Ethnography On
    CULTURING ON THE BORDERLANDS—A CRITICAL ETHNOGRAPHY ON TAIWANESE AND CHINESE TRANSNATIONAL PRACTICES Hsin-I Cheng A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2006 Committee: Alberto González,, Advisor Robert M. Buffington Graduate Faculty Representative Bettina Heinz John T. Warren Copyright 2006 Hsin-I Cheng All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Alberto González The U.S.-Mexico border has long been a site for cultural intermix and struggles as the global territories become more connected for capital flows. Such a space has drawn researchers from various disciplines to understand the impacts of the high as well as unequal volume of traveling. This ethnography critically examines the everyday communicative activities enacted and cultural identities (per)formed by a group of Taiwanese and Chinese transnationalists who arrived to the borderlands of El Paso and Juárez in the beginning of the 21st century. Rather than viewing culture as static, this research approaches it as an active creature which changes and grows through communication—traveling and dwelling on the border. This dissertation narrates daily interactions where space such as El Paso is (re)constructed during daily interactions in relations to places of Taiwan, China, Mexico, and the United States. Moreover, these relationships are ordered hierarchically, thus places are fixed in to ranked spaces. This spatial hierarchy then serves as the logic determining which communicative activities are to be engaged in on the El Paso/ Juárez border. Drawing mainly from S. Hall, H. Bhabha, and G. Anzaldúa, cultural identities are understood as processes of hybridizations.

Reeves who let me kill two birds with one stone and who set aside some of his writer's sensitivity and idealism in sitting through this Mexploitation yarn. I'd also like to thank Dr. Dale Davis and Linda Gregston for all their guidance. Finally, I thank my mother, Micaela Romero Unzueta, who never had the benefit of even finishing an elementary education and who never really knows or understands what I do, but whose support, nevertheless, is literally neverending. TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ii INTRODUCTION iv OUTLINE vii THE SCREENPLAY 1 111 INTRODUCTION This General Studies thesis is a creative project - - a screenplay. It is a story of narcotraficantes [drug traffickers]. I used the most common of elements, not really for that reason, but because they belong. The genre is known as "Mexploitation" and it's mainly a man's movie. The Mexican male wants action, to be a bad-ass - - a real macho - - but also values the opportunity to show emotional depth, especially when it helps his chances with the ladies.
