South Pacific
12/07/2011

Although it failed to live up to the near-unanimous praise of the 2008 Broadway revival, the touring production of Rodgers & Hammerstein's South Pacific, which had a recent run at the Mahalia Jackson Theater, is a solid show that delivers on its signature songbook. The musical is set at a U.S. Navy base during World War II, where the daffy American nurse Nellie Forbush (Katie Reid) has fallen for the wealthy French expat Emile de Becque (Marcelo Guzzo), who has a few secrets — mainly two Polynesian love children and a murder rap.…

Wrongful death suit against TxDOT begins
12/07/2011

Testimony in a wrongful-death lawsuit filed by the family of Ramiro Reyes began Tuesday with their lawyer blaming the fatal accident that killed Reyes on a Texas Department of Transportation decision to apply a de-icing agent on roads on a December night three years ago. In opening statements, Fidel Rodriguez Jr. told jurors that the case was about “the safety of the public in Bexar County and what happens when that is compromised by ignorance, irresponsibility and indifference.” Reyes, 32, was driving his pickup west on Interstate 10 shortly before 8:30 a.m., six hours after TxDOT poured the magnesium chloride mixture to prevent ice from forming on roads. [...] defense attorney David Strain, in his opening statement, said, “The question is, where is the scientific proof that this (agent) was slicker than water?”

Budget is thin, hope is not
12/07/2011

Time Dollar helps neighbors trade needed services, build community networks in poorest areas. Monday mornings are busy at the San Antonio Time Dollar Community Connections agency. People start lining up outside the small wood-frame house on the West Side for a chance to walk away with a modest box of groceries. At the core of Time Dollar is a system that allows people to donate their “assets or gifts” in exchange for those of others. Baby-sitting and picking up children after school is involved in many of these transactions. Esparza said it teaches people “to use a simple square-foot gardening technique, which uses 20 percent of the space (of a regular garden), 20 percent of the water, 20 percent of the work but still produces 100 percent of the harvest.”
