La VOZ Birthday Issue


La Voz Updated Logo

Help Me Celebrate My Birthday!Stitch 
For the last couple of years I have gathered with friends to celebrate my birthday, each year topping the previous year. So after much thought and many suggestions as what to do today to celebrate I have decided that I much rather give a gift than receive a gift! By that I mean I would rather save the money we would have spent on drinks, food, and cover and instead make a donation to one of my favorite local organizations.
 
Please join me in supporting the work of the Parent Institute for Quality Education (PIQE) by making a gift in any amount today. I am not kidding any amount.... $1, $5, $10, $20 or more! This is tax deductible donation that will support the groundbreaking work that the Parent Institute is doing. You can make a donation by clicking on the link below. For tracking purposes please place my initials, "PCA" on the second Billing Address Line.
 
Nothing would make me happier on my birthday to know that we positively affected the lives of hundreds of families. If you like to join me in making a secure online gift to the Parent Institute for Quality Education please click the following link:

Kidney Early Evaluation Program (KEEP),  is a free, targeted, community screening for individuals at high risk for developing kidney disease. Those at "high risk" include individuals who have diabetes, high blood pressure, or have a first degree relative with diabetes, high blood pressure or kidney disease.  The screening takes about one hour for the participant to complete. The tests conducted include blood pressure, physical measurements, and blood and urine tests. Blood pressure results, the blood glucose and the urine tests are received by the participant on the day of the screening.  The remaining test results are sent to the participants in 3-4 weeks in a comprehensive, easy to read report.
 
Am I even at risk?
Since August of 2000, 30% of those screened by the KEEP found that they had some stage of CKD yet only 2% were aware of it before the screening. California contains a significant percentage of those populations at greatest risk for kidney disease: Hispanics/Latinos, African Americans and Pacific Islanders.  Other populations at high risk are Native Americans and the elderly. It is the goal of the National Kidney Foundation of Southern California to target individuals in these high risk groups who process a risk factor for CKD, identify those who have CKD, then provide education and referral in hopes that their kidney disease can be can be slowed or stopped. 
 
But isn't the screening expensive?
No, it is completely free!

World Aids Day - FREE Rapid HIV Antibody Testing

WHAT: An eight-person team from UC San Diego's Antiviral Research Center will provide free and confidential rapid HIV testing from its new mobile van between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m.

WHEN: World AIDS Day, Monday, December 1
WHERE: City College, 1313 Park Blvd San Diego, California 92101 on the quad (grassy area at center of campus, across from the cafeteria)

UCSD Antiviral Research Center personnel will be providing free, rapid HIV antibody testing PLUS the Early Test at City College on World AIDS Day. The Early Test is a specialized HIV test that tests directly for the virus, not just the antibody, and detects the virus as early as one week after exposure. (The standard HIV antibody test requires that an individual wait several weeks to months after a potential exposure.) The Early Test is free, confidential, and is offered as part of a UC San Diego School of Medicine research study. The testing process takes approximately 40 minutes and also detects Hepatitis C infection. The Early Test Program is a collaboration between the San Diego County Health and Human Services Agency and the UCSD Antiviral Research Center.

For additional information on where residents can get this test for free, go to: https://theearlytest.ucsd.edu.

Related to that:

Call on Congress to revoke the Patriot Acts and Revoke the 2007 Defense Authorization Act where it overrides Posse Comitatus and the Insurrection Act.

Election Reform - our most vital duty is controlled by unaccountable, untraceable black-box voting machines made by FOR-PROFIT Corporations. Standardize OPEN-SOURCE fully transparent voting solutions, that have both a printed receipt for the voter, and a digital image of every paper ballot immediately uploaded to a public website so that any voter can check that their individual ballot was counted correctly. 

Reverse all the Last Minute Pardons and Commutations
Don't allow the outgoing President to Preemptively Pardon those within his Administration. Make public and transparent all acts of the former Administration to avoid accountability for their actions.

Bush's Incompetent Political Appointees have now been set up in permanent career employees in the upper levels of the federal government. We ask that these be reversed, and if possible stopped before they are complete by injunction. 

Restore the Ethics Committees in Congress and the Senate, and hold all accountable.

Health Care: make sure all children in the USA have same quality healthcare insurance as our members of congress. All Military Veterans, too.

Green Sustainable Energy:
Start the Sustainable Energy Revolution, by calling on all Americans to sacrifice by cutting their power use by 50% over the next four years. Ask for a Carbon Fuels tax of 50% that will be directed to pay any person who produces sustainable green energy. 

Carbon Credits

Free Trade: make it FAIR TRADE

Restore the FOIA Office of the Ombudsman and make all Federal Government Agencies Completely Transparent 

Stop Privatizing the vital government services. 
BlackWater, 'nuff said.

FCC - Restore Media Plurality : stop the auctioning of public airwaves and call for the opening of new rules about public access so that local populations can control their airwaves. Expand public access TV on cable to equal a percentage of total income. TAX for profit stations to supply resources for local non-comercial public access RADIO and TV. 

Network Neutrality - Make sure all internet providers serve all sites equally, without slowing down alternative voices, or discriminating against the poor and minority groups that can not afford to pay for privileged access to information.

White extremists lash out over election of first black president

The Ku Klux Klan is emerging from decades of disorganization and obscurity, and the turnaround is acutely evident -- more than 200 hate-related incidents have been reported since the Nov. 4 election.

By Howard Witt

November 23, 2008

Reporting from Bogalusa , La. — Barely three weeks since America elected its first black president, noose hangings, racist graffiti and death threats have struck dozens of towns across the country.

More than 200 such incidents -- including cross burnings, assassination betting pools and effigies of President-elect Barack Obama -- have been reported, according to law enforcement authorities and the Southern Poverty Law Center , which monitors hate groups.

Racist websites have been boasting that their servers have been crashing because of an exponential increase in traffic.

And America 's most potent symbol of racial hatred, the Ku Klux Klan, is reasserting itself in a spate of recent violence, after decades of disorganization and obscurity.

Nearly two weeks ago, the leader of a cell based in Bogalusa , La. -- a backwoods town once known as the Klan capital -- was charged with second-degree murder in the shooting of a woman who allegedly sought to become a member but then changed her mind.

Late last month, two men with ties to a notoriously violent Klan chapter in Kentucky were charged in a bizarre plot to kill 88 black students and then decapitate an additional 14 students -- and then assassinate Obama by shooting him from a speeding car while wearing white tuxedos and top hats.

"We've seen everything from cross burnings on lawns of interracial couples to effigies of Obama hanging from nooses to unpleasant exchanges in schoolyards," said Mark Potok, director of the Intelligence Project at the Southern Poverty Law Center, based in Montgomery, Ala. "I think we're in a worrying situation right now, a perfect storm of conditions coming together that could easily favor the continued growth of these groups."

Experts attribute the racist activity to factors including the rapidly worsening economic crisis; trends indicating that within a generation whites will not comprise a U.S. majority; and the impending arrival of a black family in the White House.

The FBI is investigating whether the recent Klan-related incidents involve conspiracies. And the Secret Service is monitoring the racist activity "to try to stay ahead of any emerging threats," according to spokesman Darrin Blackford.

One white supremacist leader, describing himself as moderate, professes alarm.

"There is a tremendous backlash" to Obama's election, said Richard Barrett, the leader of the Nationalist Movement in Learned, Miss. "My focus is to try to keep it peaceful. But many people look at the flag of the Republic of New Africa that will be hoisted over the White House as an act of war."

The FBI has no hate-crime statistics yet for 2008.

But based on local media reports, some experts are calling the rise in hate incidents surprising and unprecedented.

"The rhetoric right now is just about out of control," said Brian Levin, director of Center for the Study of Hate and Extremism at Cal State San Bernardino . "When you get this depth of hatred, it usually is the smoke before the fire."

In the small Louisiana town of Angie , 58-year-old Judy Robinson put an Obama sign outside her home a few weeks before the Nov. 4 presidential election. The morning after Halloween, she awoke to find the words "KKK" and "white power" spray-painted around her yard.

"I thought all that KKK stuff was in the past," said Robinson, who is black. "But now I look at people and think, 'Could he be Klan?' Suddenly I'm feeling like my town is hostile territory."

Experts say modern Klan chapters remain isolated and small, with perhaps 6,000 members nationwide -- a shadow of the group's membership of 4 million in the early 1900s.

Bogalusa , a lumber and paper mill town of about 13,000, is just down the road from Angie.

In the 1960s, historians say, the Ku Klux Klan so dominated Bogalusa 's commerce, politics and law enforcement that the group once held a public meeting to debate which black church to burn down next.

Several Bogalusa Klan members were long suspected of shooting two black sheriff's deputies in a 1965 ambush, killing one. No one was ever brought to trial.

"To this day, most white people in Bogalusa know who the killers were, and they were never brought to justice," said Lance Hill, a Tulane University law professor and Klan expert.

That past now seems less distant.

On Nov. 10, local law enforcement authorities arrested Raymond "Chuck" Foster, 44, the leader of a Bogalusa Klan chapter called the Sons of Dixie, and seven other Klan members in connection with the shooting death of a Tulsa , Okla. , woman who went to the group's remote campsite in St. Tammany Parish for an initiation ceremony.

Authorities say Foster shot the woman when she tried to change her mind about joining the group. He has been charged with second-degree murder; the other Klan members, including Foster's 20-year-old son, have been charged with obstruction of justice.

City officials say they had no idea that Bogalusa has Klan cells.

"I've been here 13 years, and this was a complete surprise to me that there was Klan here," said Police Chief Jerry Agnew.

Yet members of the town's black community say they have been reporting Klan sightings to the police for more than a year. About 40% of residents are black.

In October 2007, residents of one black neighborhood reported white-hooded Klan members riding horses through the streets.

And in March, Klan members openly handed out fliers advertising the second annual Sons of Dixie Knights of the Ku Klux Klan Craw Fish Boil -- held at the house on Louisiana Avenue that Foster was renting from a Bogalusa deputy sheriff.

"The city leaders want to make it look like this is just some small fringe group," said former City Councilman Marvin Austin, 61, who once belonged to the Deacons for Defense, a black group that formed in the 1960s to defend black residents from the Klan.

"But the Klan still has a lot of sympathizers here."

Witt writes for the Chicago Tribune.
