It seemed paradoxical that as buildings and storefronts are empty, the casinos were filled with people eating, drinking, smoking

First Person:
By Dr. Al Carlos Hernandez

   My wife and I had an online offer we couldn’t refuse – so we didn’t. We decided to spend a few days in Reno, Nevada at one of the big casinos. Now my wife and I are not gamers but at 49 bucks a room, we really had nothing to lose.

   Father’s Day honors fathers and celebrates a father’s influence on the family.  It is celebrated in a variety of ways—cards, hand made gifts, favorite foods and affection. But when a father lights up a cigarette, he puts a smoke screen between himself and his adoring family. If he smokes outside, he cuts himself off from precious time with his loved ones. If he smokes indoors, he exposes them to secondhand smoke—a toxic carcinogenic with no safe level of exposure.

Now we need to get more Hispanics voting!

When we first started publishing La Prensa San Diego back in 1976, it was a very big deal when Peter Chacon was elected to the State Assembly. Peter was the first elected Hispanic from San Diego. City councils, Assembly and Senate Seats in San Diego County were the bastion of the white community, along with school boards and all other elected positions. Those days are long gone!
