Las valenzuela biography of michael

There once was a lefty from Etchohuaquila / Whose screwball dropped better than any tequila / His rookie shutouts fanned Fernandomania / Conquering L.A. and filling up stadia / Dodger, Padre, Angel, O, Card, and Phil / The hurler, then broadcaster, was king of the hill / Death now has announced El Toro’s final goodbye / If you have a sombrero, throw it to the sky
I became a big fan of Fernando Valenzuela, the Mexican pitcher from Sonora state who died of liver cancer Oct. 22, during his phenomenal rookie year in 1981. I also have long been fascinated by Mexico’s folk culture and its representations of people as skeletons along with its humorous “calavera literaria” poems such as the one above that are published around Nov. 2, the Day of the Dead.
These interests converged after I got to know Marialuisa Vilchis Kaprielian, the owner of the Tesoros de Mexico shop in Old Town San Diego, which carried papier-mâché skeleton figures made by Mexico City artist Joel García. She worked out a deal in 1993 for García, who had studied his craft under the great Pedro Linares, to create a skeleton likeness of Fernando for me.
For me, there is a link between Major League Baseball and D&ia

Valenzuela attorney urges council to enact 'firm policies' for Las Cruces police
LAS CRUCES – The city agreed to consider updating its police use-of-force policies as part of a settlement with the family of Antonio Valenzuela, who was killed in police custody in February after being placed in a neck restraint.
But the majority of the policies the family desired are already in place, the department has said. Many were in place before Valenzuela’s death occurred, according to Las Cruces Police Department and city staff.
Sam Bregman, the Valenzuela family's attorney, is looking for something stronger.
Specifically, he said the city council should "demand" the adoption of the policies formally by ordinance or resolution, so they're not subject to be changed by a future police chief at the department level.
"If they're saying they're doing all these things already," Bregman said, "then make it the law of the land."
“The agreement between the parties does not require the city to change any formal policies,” Damian Martinez, who represented the city in the Valenzuela lawsuit, told city councilors last week. “What the agreement requires is that the city needs to consider eight possible policy changes, but the city is not bound to make any of those changes.”
