Averitt drops re-election bid
State Se. Kip Averitt (R, Waco) has withdrawn from the ballot due to health concerns.
State Sen. Kip Averitt, R-Waco, said Wednesday afternoon that he has ended his re-election campaign, citing health problems.
The decision comes a week and a half after the closing of the filing period to run for state elected office as a Democrat or Republican and leaves Burleson insurance agent Darren Yancy as the sole candidate left to campaign in the GOP primary.
No Democrats have filed to run for Averitt's seat, which covers McLennan, Coryell, Falls, Bosque, Hill, Navarro, Somervell, Hood, Johnson and Ellis counties.
Averitt, 55, a certified public accountant, has represented Waco since 1992, when he was elected to the state House. He issued a statement to the Tribune-Herald that said in recent years he has struggled to balance health and the interests of his family with his role as a public servant.
"I have been advised that I must now put my health above all else — for me and my family — and it is with deep regret that I announce today the cessation of my Senate campaign," the release states.
That's unfortunate. My best wishes to Sen. Averitt for a healthy retirement.
The lack of a Democratic candidate in this race, which would seem to hand this district from the fairly moderate Averitt to the teabagger Yancy, inspired some back and forth and back again about whether the Dems blew an opportunity or were in fact playing it smart. It turns out, however, that Averitt's announcement comes after the deadline for withdrawing from the ballot. So, not only will he remain an option for Republicans on March 2, as the Quorum Report notes, he could give the Dems a second chance to compete:
If Averitt withdraws after winning the primary, then the Republican District Executive Committee (comprised of the County Chairmen from each of the counties SD 22, Sec 171.054) selects his replacement (not the SREC/SDEC); and the Democratic District Executive Committee also gets to nominate an opponent (Sec. 145.036). No litigation necessary.
Ross Ramsey elaborates.
If Averitt wins the primary — as incumbents generally do — and then quits, Republican Party officials can choose a candidate to replace him. But his departure opens a door for the Democrats. If he's off the ballot and neither of the major parties has a candidate, both of them — the Republicans and the Democrats — get to add a nominee for the race. What is now on track to be a a Republican race would suddenly be competitive, at least on paper.
If Yancy wins in March, the Democrats don't get to play. Averitt goes home, Yancy runs in November against a Libertarian, and that's that.
So there's that. And though it's highly unlikely to make for a competitive race – SD22 was pretty darned red in 2008, it at least means there's still a chance of a better outcome than Sen. Darren Yancy. Keep hope alive, and get those recruitment efforts for 2012 (*) started anyway, just in case.
(*) – Yes, 2012. All Senate seats are up in years that end in 2, which is to say the first election after redistricting. Senators then draw straws to see who has to run again in the next election, and who gets to wait four years.
Cut education now, pay later?

A Follow Spot
"Dr. Strangelove" Still Potent After All These Years
I was going to start this out by suggesting that America had, indeed, learned to stop worrying and love the bomb, as "Dr. Strangelove" tells us in its subtitle. I remember the Civil Defense Shelter at the Health Department where my dad worked back in the 60s, as if we could all pile in there in case of nuclear attack. We also had drills at school, where we were told you could hide under your tiny little desk and be safe from the Big One. I certainly hope you don't see that anymore.
But in the wake of terrorist scares, I feel certain that bomb shelters and piles of canned goods and bottled water aren't going anywhere. Survivalists may be looking for backpack bombs or the Apocalypse instead of a sneak attack from the Russkies, but they still think the end of the world is imminent, and they share the philosophy of Dr. Strangelove himself, who counsels going underground and starting a new civilization of just the cool kids like himself. Ten women for every man! Lots and lots of sex to people the new world! It's thrilling stuff for generals and politicians.
I think I first saw "Dr. Strangelove" back in the late 70s, when I was in college, and I thought it was hilarious and not scary in the least. That's a little strange, considering we were still in the midst of the arms race and discussions of "mutual assured destruction" then, but maybe it was the folly of youth, or a kind of post-traumatic-stress giddiness that came from being a child during the Cuban Missile Crisis, three horrific assassinations and the Viet Nam War.
Or maybe it was just that Stanley Kubrick clearly intended the film to be funny, and there's no other way to look at Peter Sellers in three different roles, including the titular wheelchair-bound German rocket scientist called Dr. Strangelove; George C. Scott in the most over-the-top performance of his career (yes, even more than Patton) as a gung-ho Air Force general; Slim Pickens in the best performance of his career as a down-home cowpoke of a fighter pilot; and Sterling Hayden as a psycho nutball with a thing for precious bodily fluids. Kubrick and screenwriter Terry Southern gave us characters named things like Jack D. Ripper, Buck Turgidson, Bat Guano and T.J. "King" Kong, cluing you in right there that it's supposed to be a comedy.
This time, with more hours ticked off my inner Doomsday clock, I still found it funny, but really frightening, too. Maybe some things have changed. But not nearly enough. I guess I do believe that one crazy general – or one crazy anybody, really – can destroy the world. We may've cooled our jets on nuclear weapons, but more, smaller, less stable countries have picked them up, global warming is screwing things up, anyway, and... Yeah, the world is every bit as scary as when Kubrick put together this chilling, hilarious, amazing movie.
The plot is simple – a general (that would be Jack D. Ripper, played with relentless insanity by Sterling Hayden) who thinks fluoridating the water is a Russian plot issues an order to an entire wing of bombers to set forth and drop their nukes. Once his superior, General Buck Turgidson (George C. Scott in gum-chomping, wild-eyed glory) discovers what's happened, he tells President Merkin Muffley (another of Sellers' roles, apparently based on Bloomington's own Adlai Stevenson) and the rest of the War Room, and they scramble to find the code to get the bombers to turn back. Meanwhile, Group Captain Lionel Mandrake (the third Peter Sellers' role), a British RAF officer assigned to General Ripper, has realized that Ripper has gone off the rails, and he, too, attempts to get the code. In one of the film's best and silliest scenes, Mandrake tries desperately to make a phone call to the president the old-fashioned way, by feeding quarters into a pay-phone, with very little help from Keenan Wynn's bull-headed Colonel Bat Guano.
Kubrick does a terrific job racheting up the suspense, even if you already know the ending. I found myself worrying about the men in the fighter plane (including Slim Pickens and James Earl Jones), and about poor President Muffley and Captain Mandrake, who keep trying to do the right thing. With the Doomsday Machine looming in their future, it really doesn't matter if they're nice or loony tunes or evil, but I was biting my fingernails worrying about them nonetheless.
For a film about the fecklessness of people who put too much faith in machines, "Dr. Strangelove" still sets up wonderful characters. Humanity on parade, with all its foibles. One man and the machinery he puts in motion can blow up the world, but the bombs didn't do it by themselves, did they?
I'm not a big fan of "2001: A Space Odyssey," even though the message is somewhat the same. But there's no denying the brilliance of "Dr. Strangelove" or the performances in it. It has its own style, from the credits to the visual pictures to the amazingly evocative music. (The use of "When Johnny Comes Marching Home Again" is genius all by itself.) And that style works. Brilliant. Scathing. Darkly funny. So, so very dark.
"Dr. Strangelove" has got to be seen. You have one more chance to catch it on the big screen at the Normal Theater tonight at 7 pm. Seriously. Don't miss it.

Absolutely brilliant movie. Years after having seen it last, some of the crazy dialogue is burned into memory. Some of the phrases, like "a bunch of commie preverts" [sic], have entered the language so that people don't even know they're quoting the movie when they use them.
And yes, the music. The final montage is justly famous, but spare a snicker for the opening credits sequence, one plane refueling another in midair to the tune of "Try a Little Tenderness" so that it's impossible not to notice that they seem to be fornicating.
JulieK August 6, 2010 at 2:16 PM
I confess I only caught "Try a Little Tenderness" this time, but I remembered "We'll Meet Again." I'd also forgotten (or didn't notice before) "When Johnny Comes Marching Home Again," which was used very, very well.
One other thing I caught this time that I didn't notice before -- the "war footage" when the Army guys try to take over the Air Force base. Man alive, that looked like any other war scene, with bodies strewn around and explosions and destruction. Uncomfortably realistic.

Confessions of a local writing teacher: The PA system
Wherein we are introduced to the remarkable miscommunications of Principal C
The PA system in the main office of a high school is often a crucial tool in the overall management of daily life at the institution.
After all, the "the main office," as everybody who ever went to school knows, is ground zero, general headquarters, the bridge, the nerve centre, the cockpit, the brain, the heart, action central, the hub, the nub, the place from whence decision and organization emanate and where problem-solving and punishment originate.
And the PA is often the bodiless voice of that place.
The PA system was Principal C's special friend. He loved his PA. If Principal C was the sheriff, well then, the PA was his deputy.
One of the reasons for this was that Principal C privately thought he had a pretty good voice over the thing, if he did say so himself.
A voice that inspired respect, a voice that was authoritative, a voice the very timbre of which spoke pure leadership.
Sadly, every other human being in the building thought the exact opposite.
Let's say someone has parked a car in the no-parking zone in front of the school. The car is blocking the passage of one of the town snowplows on its rounds after a heavy storm.
The snowplow driver comes into the school and is directed to the main office where he asks the secretary whether he should plow around the car or have it moved.
The secretary, who has worked here for 40 years, has been instructed by Principal C to bring all problems, large or small, to him. She immediately presents this problem to Principal C, who is in his private office off the main office, waiting, like a spider waits for a bug to shake its web.
Principal C, a problem-solver, a man of action, strides over to his friend the PA.
He pulls the chair up to the PA table bearing its shiny amplifier and its microphone, so virile in design, almost phallic in shape.
He sits, he turns on the amplifier, he waits for the green light, he cranks up the volume until he hears a high squeal, he drags his chair in closer and grasps the microphone and clears his throat. Adrenalin is squirting through his body.
In every space in the school, including the gym and the furnace and boiler rooms, there is a speaker.
The 450 souls in the building know by the high squeal that Principal C will be coming on soon with an announcement of world-shaking importance.
Following the squeal, they hear some thumping, a chair scraping a floor, a microphone banging across a table, Principal C taking up his position of high command.
Then they hear Principal C tapping the microphone with his finger. They know that soon they will hear him say what he always says: "Is this thing on?"
Then they will hear him clearing his throat and then they hear his signature smacking of the lips three times, then his customary throat-clearing, which is always five machine-gun glottal stops.
Finally they hear his dramatic, full intake of breath.
Principal C is ready to announce on his public announcement system.
The time is a little after 10 in the morning. Up to now everyone in the building is in the middle of some worthwhile activity but all that business has ceased now that there is an announcement pending.
Principal C is a blunt, no-nonsense guy. A get-to-the-point man. No niceties. No waste of time. A man of a few words.
Unfortunately his words sometimes lack context and may be strangely out of sequence.
Here it comes.
"HAS ANYBODY GOT A CAR IN THE SCHOOL?" he booms.
There follows a furious set of thumping sounds and a resounding thud and then the speakers fall silent.
The announcement is over.
From behind all the closed doors in the school there is the sound of joyous laughter.
Good old Principal C! He's done it again!
"Having Your Car In The School" is the topic of conversation for the better part of the rest of the day.
Some of the larger farm boys and jocks around their favourite lunchroom tables engage in lengthy discussions regarding what entrance to the school would be wide enough to bring a car in so they could have their car "in the school."
They conclude that the garbage doors at the side would be ideal but what about the main door at the front? Some think it would be more dramatic and more challenging to bring your car right in the front door.
Granted, you'd have to get the car up the front steps, and you'd have to remove the divider that separates the "in" and "out" doors but it would be worth the effort when you consider the advantages of having your own car right inside the school.
What are these advantages? Well, let's see.
In below zero weather the engine would stay warm.
You wouldn't have to brush off the snow or scrape the windows before you took off home.
You could sit in your car during lunch hour with your girlfriend and try to get her bra off.
You could skip class and smoke cigarettes in your car.
And with the windows up, you wouldn't have to listen to Principal C's announcements on his PA.
Other discussions, held by the brown-nosers, took the position that having one's car right inside the school would be disruptive. What if everybody brought their car into the school?
Where do you draw the line?
And what about space? How would they change classes nine times a day with the hallways full of cars, for God's sakes!
What's wrong with Principal C, anyway? Suggesting such a thing over his PA. Is he totally insane?
But the announcement that Principal C made the following day was so startling that everyone completely forgot about having cars in the school.
It was tradition at the school that the boys brought their lunches in classic lunch pails, the kind used by construction workers. These pails were either black or brown.
The girls brought their lunches in paper bags. Far more chic.
Students' lunches were sometimes lost and turned in to the office.
When this occurred, Principal C was quick off the mark. He and his deputy, the PA, could deal with this crisis in no time flat.
Principal C's announcement was this:
"THERE'S A BROWN BOY'S LUNCH DOWN HERE!"
A brown boy? Nobody saw a brown boy around. In our school? How wonderfully strange. Many of the girls became restless and fidgety.
Many of the kids in this Ottawa Valley school had never even seen a brown boy.
No, wait. Melanie went to Ogdensburg last summer and saw some brown boys down there.
Come to think of it, there wasn't one brown person in the whole county.
Melanie wished there were. She liked brown boys.
Time for she and her friends to rush down to the office to see who claimed the lunch, just in case.
There's a crowd of quivering females in front of Principal C's office.
"Get back to class, get back to your classes, there are no brown boys down here!" hollers Principal C.
Principal C has had a busy day.

2 Pilots in Different Planes Saw the Same UFO. The FAA Can't Explain It.
By Brandon Specktor, Senior Writer | March 28, 2018 02:34pm ET
Two separate flights reported seeing the same 'UFO' in the Arizona desert in February.
Credit: Joe Raedle/Getty
Two airline pilots spotted a mysterious, reflective object hovering some 40,000 feet (12,000 meters) over southern Arizona last month, and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is stumped.
According to radio transmissions between the befuddled pilots and air traffic controllers (which you can listen to in full, thanks to an FAA recording recently released to the Phoenix New Times), the sighting occurred around 3:30 p.m. local time on Feb. 24, somewhere over the Sonoran Desert near Phoenix.
"Was anybody above us that passed us like 30 seconds ago?" the first pilot asked while flying a Learjet west toward California. [7 Things Most Often Mistaken for UFOs]
"Negative," an air traffic controller at the FAA's Albuquerque Air Traffic Center in New Mexico answered.
"OK," the pilot responded. "Something did."
The object, whatever it was, was flying high — at least a few thousand feet above the jet, which was cruising at an altitude of around 37,000 feet (11,000 m), the New Times reported. A few minutes later, the FAA asked another nearby flight — an American Airlines Airbus traveling in the same direction — to keep an eye out for anything "passing over" it in the desert.
The confused pilot agreed. And sure enough, within a few minutes, the Airbus crew saw the same mystery object fly over their plane.
"Yeah, something just passed over us," the Airbus pilot reported. "I couldn't make it out, whether it was a balloon or what … but it had a big reflection on it and it was several thousand feet above us, going the opposite direction."
Several weeks later, authorities are still stumped as to the object's origin. Beyond these two pilot reports, the FAA couldn't verify that any other aircraft were around. It likely wasn't a "Google balloon," the FAA reported, nor a weather balloon or a military craft.
"We have a close working relationship with a number of other agencies and safely handle military aircraft and civilian aircraft of all types in that area every day, including high-altitude weather balloons," an FAA representative told the New Times.
In other words, whatever the UFO was, the FAA should have known about it. But it didn't.
This report comes just a few months after a former Pentagon official revealed that the government has been quietly running an official UFO detection program since 2007. An investigation into the program by The New York Times turned up striking footage taken by two Navy fighter pilots, who appear to encounter a mysterious glowing object midair.
Reports like these may be more common than you imagine. According to the National UFO Reporting Center — an online database of alleged UFO sightings in America — there have been nearly 650 UFO sightings reported so far in 2018. However, the website advises, "Many of the new reports have been submitted by individuals who elect to remain anonymous… we encourage visitors to our website to be discriminating in what they accept as accurate and reliable."

HotelTalk: Will the EESA stabilize the industry?
"It is one of the most far-reaching interventions in the last 70 years and certainly the most broad-reaching in this century," said Mayo, clinical professor at the Tisch Center.
"There are no specific provisions in the act that relate directly to lodging or the travel industry, but the act will create investment opportunities for our industries," Hanson, clinical associate professor at NYU Tisch Center, said. "As the government acquires troubled assets in the form of mortgages and related instruments, there will be hotel mortgages in the pool." Because of the act's provisions, commercial mortgages—including those for hotels and travel-related businesses—issued before March 14, 2008, are eligible for acquisition.
Additionally, some of the money from the act, namely the first $250 billion, already has been injected into the market, said Quadri-Felitti, clinical assistant professor at the Tisch Center. "The initial phase of the $250-billion package is just now beginning to flow into the market. However, some immediate reactions to the actual signing of the legislation were noticeable. These include a surge in the U.S. dollar as foreign investors began buying U.S. treasury debt once the law passed. While the dollar had been recovering from its July '08 historic low against the euro, since Oct. 1, it has gained approximately 13 percent and, for the year, 22 percent. A similar pattern of recovery is seen against the pound."
The strengthening of the U.S. dollar is bittersweet—although it signals a slight turnaround some time in the future, it also could harm cities that have become dependent on foreign travelers, such as New York, Los Angeles and Miami, Quadri-Felitti said. "Replacing the value of the long-haul foreign traveler is going to be challenging. Nearly every segment will see contractions," she said.
And in the rest of the country, it may not get much better any time soon, with consumer confidence at an all-time low of 38.0 and corporate travel in an emergency freeze state for some companies. "Owners will, in the short term, experience flattened profits and operators will be tested to implement creative ways to reduce expenses," Quadri-Felitti said. "Third-party distribution partners and all stakeholders will need to consider the value of every relationship as well as each relationship's contribution to the fiscal health of the other."
But the act ultimately will be good for the industry and the economy as a hole, she said, noting it will bring liquidity to the market and has already eased the credit crunch, among other yet-unseen benefits. "This time, perhaps those with successful track records that span more than one cycle will be best situated to capitalize on the coming availability of hotel properties as well as the available debt and capital that will eventually be right-priced as the correction settles," Quadri-Felitti said.

North American Bancard Teams Up with Volunteers of America to Deliver Holiday Cheer to Families in the Adopt A Family Program
TROY, Mich., Dec. 16, 2015 – For the third year in a row, North American Bancard, an award-winning industry leader in credit card processing, is helping Forgotten Harvest provide Thanksgiving dinner for those in need in Metro Detroit. This year, rather than donating actual turkeys, the company is giving certificates for Thanksgiving turkeys or hams to the non-profit, which is dedicated to relieving hunger in metro Detroit. Donating the certificates will allow Forgotten Harvest to purchase exactly what is needed to prepare Thanksgiving meals for individuals and families helped by the organization.
Founded in 1990, Forgotten Harvest is a Detroit area non-profit organization that "rescues" surplus prepared and perishable food sources including grocery stores, fruit and vegetable markets, restaurants, caterers, dairies, farmers, wholesale food distributors and other Health Department-approved resources. The collected food is then distributed free of charge to more than 260 emergency food providers in the metro Detroit area. The certificates donated by North American Bancard will help provide Thanksgiving dinners for individuals and families served by Forgotten Harvest's ten agencies in Wayne, Oakland and Macomb counties.
"Thanksgiving is a time of celebration with a grand meal at its center, and it can be especially difficult for those who are unable to provide a meal for their family," said Marc Gardner, founder, president and CEO of North American Bancard. "We here at North American Bancard are thankful to have the opportunity to provide for so many people in need. I am also thankful for and proud of NAB's employees, who are helping to kick off the season of giving with this wonderful gesture of generosity."
"We are very grateful for this donation from North American Bancard," said Ellen Busch, Administrative Coordinator at Forgotten Harvest. "The certificates will be able to help several of our kitchens in the metro Detroit area. Donations from companies and organizations like North American Bancard enable us to provide holiday meals for people who might otherwise not have them."

Sales/Activation Branded Retail Merchandising
5250 Satellite Drive, Unit 2
Mississauga, Ontario L4W 5G5
4422A Rue Louis-B.-Mayer
Laval, Québec H7P 0G1
Evolution of Merchandising Over 15 Years
At Match Retail, merchandising is our "thing". We have created efficiencies in the way we work, and we are passionate about what we do. We get in and out with minimal customer interference and strong brand presence and the best part is, we simply love what we do!
This month we had a chance to sit down with Dahlia Chiesurin, Director of Client Services and Operations to give us some insights into the evolving world of merchandising from past, present and future and how she feels it has evolved and where it's going!
So, what is merchandising?
Known as the final step in retail projects, merchandisers like to think of themselves as the little fairies working behind the scenes to create the magic on shelf. It may not always be the most glamourous, but the end result is beauty and brand presence day in and day out through consistent executional excellence and attention to detail! Merchandising has certainly evolved over the past 15 years and we are proud to have been there for it, contributing to the evolution.
"Merchandisers are the little fairies that work behind the scenes to create magic"
Driven by aggressive KPIs, it can make or break a marketing campaign, it supports the billboards, creates appeal of a given product at store level and ultimately represents the company and brand. Merchandising can often be overlooked however it is crucial to the success of any marketing campaign, product launch and new collection, with its high traffic visibility, rapid deployment of infield resources and quality control we understand what it takes to make sure brands are the forefront of the customer in the retail landscape.
How has it evolved?
One may think that merchandising is viewed as a basic task that may not require change or cannot be improved, but when we look back over the past 15 years the evolution of merchandising has far surpassed this idea through its identification as the crucial final step in a marketing campaign.
"We went from hardly any in-store visibility to live updates accessible anytime, anywhere making it easier to communicate with teams and clients!"
Merchandising consists of many touch points both before and after execution and over the past 15 years our teams have certainly seen these changes evolve in many ways that have helped with both communication and efficiency for merchandisers and clients. When we think of technology changes, we see that programs, phones and data capture have come such a long way making it a pivotal moment for merchandisers. From capturing images on a phone to online live digital visibility of executions we have seen such great change that has helped drive speed and accuracy in the work at retail. Technology advancements have allowed us to create live tracking documents that are available anytime from all locations, including remote locations which allows us to pivot quickly. Reporting results and KPI compliance has become more insightful for clients, allowing for immediate knowledge of the field execution. Our merchandisers are the eyes and ears. Even client briefs and communication have evolved from mail and print to digital and online portal communication and tracking, allowing for faster approvals.
What's to come?
Looking ahead with artificial intelligence (AI) and augmented reality (AR) we see it as a game changer in merchandising through the use of interactive planograms on tablets. These planograms allow customers to visually see each tray component and product sequence for a more virtual and interactive instore experience. Damaged components can be ordered directly on the planogram and are reported directly to client for ordering. Corrective planograms can now be uploaded immediately, allow for replacements to limit any errors and drive speed accurately.
"Allowing consumers to test out products virtually has created a whole new experience that's provided them an opportunity to adapt to a new way of trying out products"
A virtual and interactive world has already started and with the technology behind augmented reality (AR) programing providing brands the resources to bring customers a virtual "trying" experience in the comfort of their own homes or instore with the click of a button.
Evolution and experience have guided merchandisers to understand what it takes to make sure brands are at the forefront of customers in the retail landscape in effective and efficient ways. Brands need to be Retail Ready for the consumer shopping experience and to drive sales. Our merchandisers are passionate to make it happen!

I went online and searched for apartments for rent in Houston TX. I found lots of websites with apartments for rent. I wanted to see what For Rent had listed on their website because I had heard lots of great things about it. I knew I would be able to search by the price I wanted to pay too. I looked there and checked the box next to the price range I was looking to rent. I found a few apartments and contacted the managers of the properties to set up an appointment with them. I was able to look at those apartments the next day. I wasn't really interested in staying there after I saw them so I continued my search to find an apartment for rent.

After bone-snapping injury, teenage boxer wins fight of his life for national title
Updated Jan 05, 2019; Posted Feb 23, 2017
Fighting back: Harrisburg boxer recovers from bone-breaking injury to win national title
By J.C. Lee | jlee@pennlive.com
In a second, the momentum Angel Perez built toward a national boxing title crashed to a halt.
The 14-year-old amateur boxer was jumping and pulling off flips with his siblings Feb. 25, 2016, at the Sky Zone Trampoline Park in Mechanicsburg. Each stunt led up to the "crazy flip," as he called it, that caused him to fall and injure his leg.
After he tried to stand up, he noticed the bone that was sticking out.
His father, Alex Perez, took him to Penn State Hershey Medical Center, and Angel realized that he might not be the same for a while.
"My brothers box. My whole family (boxes)," he said. "I thought, 'Man, I'd be the only one not to make it out to become a professional boxer like I always wanted to since I was a kid.' "
Doctors said it might take a few years for Angel to walk properly again, his coach Jose Martinez said. Instead, he recovered after 10 months. One year after the injury, he competed in the national Silver Gloves Championship in Independence, Missouri.
He's now the national champion for 132-pound boxers between the ages of 14 and 15.
"It turns out, the first time he ever makes it to the nationals, you know, he wins it all," Jose said. "It's just amazing. This was his last year as far as his age group. For him to catch it at the last moment after his injury, it's a dream come true."
'They need a place to feel they belong': Harrisburg boxers fight the feeling of being cheated
"There's always a street fight or, you know, a shooting or stabbing... boxing kind of help these kids understand that, you know, you've got to have some type of goals in life."
ON THE MEND
Angel Perez and his siblings' love of boxing led Alex, Jose and two other trainers to start the Capital Punishment Boxing Club in 2010. The gym sees about 25 people practicing every evening at its 137 N. 10th St. location in Harrisburg, adjacent to the Allison Hill neighborhood that most of its boxers call home. Every year, a handful of them compete in tournaments throughout the country.
But for Angel, 2016 was not that year.
The fall broke Angel's right fibula and tibia, the two bones that comprise the leg below the knee, according to medical reports provided by his mother, Lionoa Otero. His treatment called for an "external fixation device," a metal bar screwed into his bones to keep it in place as it healed. Alex said it looked like a "Transformer leg."
But, like most teenagers, Angel was restless.
"I couldn't just sit around. I'm just a kid, it's not good for me," he said. "Sometimes, I would hit the mat with my coach, 'cause he's still teaching me combinations and stuff. I would hit the bag and, sometimes, I would help out the other kids."
PICKING BACK UP
Time was running out for Angel.
Competitors can't be more than 15 years old for the national Silver Gloves championship. Angel missed his chance to compete in 2015 after getting knocked out of the regional bouts in East Cleveland, Ohio. To get another shot at the title, Angel had to recover from his injury as quickly as possible before turning 16 in December.
After the metal bar on his leg was removed, Angel wore an orthopedic boot. After that eventually came off, Jose said "he was doing everything possible to come back"
"Everybody thought this was going to be a hard comeback for him," he said. "But they also knew, if anybody is coming back from this, it would be a Perez."
Angel had to go through seven fights, which included bouts with some of best in his state and region, before he could make it to the final bout at the national championship, Jose said. After learning he'd go up against Jermoine Royster of Richmond, Virginia, Angel knew it wasn't going to be an easy fight.
"I'm thinking like 'it's cool if I lose, but I'm not going to leave here number two. I'm going to come out here on top,'" he said.
After the first few punches, he knew he had the match. Angel slipped past most of Jermoine's moves. He started to build a rhythm.
Angel knelt down and hung his head as he and his opponent waited in the ring for the winner to be announced. He had a smile on his face.
That same smile crept on Angel's face as he watched a recording of the match with several other boxers Feb. 15, 2017, at the Capital Punishment Boxing Club. But, after they returned to their training, Angel continued to focus on the match as it played out on screen.
Angel might have come out on top at the national Silver Gloves championship, but there's still the Junior Olympics and the Golden Gloves championship. He continued to train that day with his father and siblings by hitting the bags, shadow boxing and sparring with other members of the gym.
It's that drive that Jose hopes will inspire other teenagers in central Pennsylvania who want to do something with their lives, such as the boxers in his own gym.
"He chose this. He's doing great. Injuries came along, and he overcame them. He jumped them hurdles," he said. "...this does wonders for the gym 'cause we have so many other kids and, now, they see that and it just motivates them, like, if he did it, so can I."

Mahratta has been listed with the State Heritage Council and is acknowledged as one of the finest Georgian Art Deco mansions in Sydney. It has one of the few remaining gardens designed by Paul Sorensen in the Sydney Metropolitan area. He also designed the Blue Mountains gardens "The Everglades" and "The Braes". Mahratta has been listed with the State Heritage Council and is acknowledged as one of the finest Georgian Art Deco mansions in Sydney. It has one of the few remaining gardens designed by Paul Sorensen in the Sydney Metropolitan area. He also designed the Blue Mountains gardens "The Everglades" and "The Braes".
The Friends of Mahratta was established in 2010 to raise funds for the care and preservation of the house and garden as well as opening the property for community use and enjoyment.
Mahratta began as a family home and was later owned by the Bank of New South Wales (now Westpac) so opportunities for the general public to visit were limited. Friends of Mahratta enjoy giving the public the opportunity to visit this magnificent house and garden.
Our main fundraising event for the year is 'Behind the Wall' normally held in Spring. In 2019 we won't be holding the event and will have two Garden days for people to come and visit the grounds and tour the house. Visitors can stroll through the 1.6-hectare Sorensen garden which includes a sunken rose garden, an Azalea walk and a Labyrinth. This is one of the few times the public can view inside the house as admittance is by guided tour only.
Go to the 'Events' page for dates and details.
