Realmente lejana est la fecha en que por decisin papal los Caballeros Templarios fueron dispersados y luego perseguidos. Este grupo de hombres vestidos de trajes blancos con una cruz colorada al frente fue creado como un selecto grupo de defensores de los santos lugares, sobre todo el gran templo de Jerusaln, del cual toman el nombre de los Caballeros del Templo. Muchas historias se han contado sobre ellos y de su bsqueda del santo grial o de secretos y riquezas que celosamente supieron esconder al comn de los mortales. Su legendario pasado ha servido para llenar miles de pginas de novelas, historias, cuentos, especulaciones que llegan al extremo de afirmar que custodiaban a Mara Magdalena y a un supuesto hijo que Jess el Cristo habra tenido con ella. Mucha imaginacin que no logr superar, otra vez, la realidad. En los actuales momentos se libra una guerra sin cuartel entre un grupo que se ha dado por llamar las autodefensas y nada ms y nada menos que los Caballeros Templarios. Pero no se los imagine a estos ltimos caballeros montados a caballo y vistiendo largas sotanas. No se trata de una reencarnacin o resurreccin de los celebrrimos defensores de cruzados y otros sujetos de la edad media. No. Se trata de un feroz grupo de traficantes que han tomado el nombre de los Caballeros Templarios dedicados a cometer extorsiones, violaciones y asesinatos en el estado mexicano de Michoacn. En este estado, en el ao 2012, 55 de cada 100 personas eran pobres, 2.44 millones en nmeros absolutos, de las cuales 650 mil son pobres extremas. A esto se suma el retraso educativo y la recesin laboral que aument un 29 por ciento, lo que hace las cosas muy pero muy difciles en esa entidad federal. Tambin, por mucho tiempo, los narcotraficantes han ejercido el poder de manera violenta y sdica, dndose por ejemplo el caso de secuestrar a las mujeres de sus adversarios y no devolverlas hasta que no estuvieran embarazadas, entre otras joyitas. Se justifique o no, el hecho es que los civiles han decidido armarse, desde hace ya un ao, y para ello deben contar con cierta complacencia del poder central, porque por lo que se ve en la imgenes, este grupo se ha aprovisionado de armamento moderno y no de simples machetes o palos para defenderse, y como la cosa se est saliendo de su cauce, ahora el gobierno mexicano exige a estas autodefensas que entreguen sus armas, a lo que stas se niegan porque la razn por la que se organizaron an esta de lo ms saludable: el desptico poder de los Caballeros Templarios. Quienes, por otra parte, parecen contar con cierto apoyo popular, ya que algunos los consideran como una hermandad al servicio del pueblo, cuyos principios (53) han sido recogidos en un pequeo cuadernito que en su momento repartieron de casa en casa. Entre sus lineamientos, Los Caballeros Templarios dicen reconocer el derecho de los pueblos y las naciones a gobernarse a s mismos dentro de su medio econmico natural y se pronuncian por el apoyo a la libertad de expresin, de conciencia y de religin, incluida la diversidad de creencias, pues el Templario deber intentar entender cmo otros se acercan a Dios. En el da de hoy las autodefensas no creen en estos predicamentos y el enfrentamiento es frontal, de all que quepa preguntarse Y cundo habr paz para las familias en Michoacn? It is really far away the date in which by papal decision the Knights Templar were dispersed and then persecuted. This group of men dressed in white robes with a red cross in front was created as a select group of defenders of the holy places, notably the Great Temple of Jerusalem, from which the Temple Knights take their name. Many stories have been told about them and their quest for the Holy Grail, or about secrets and riches they zealously concealed from the ordinary mortals. Their legendary past has served to fill thousands of pages of novels, stories, tales, speculations that go so far as to sustain that they were guardians of Mary Magdalene and a supposed son that Jesus the Christ would have had with her. A lot of imagination that, once more, reality could not surpass. At the present time, a relentless war is being fought between the so-called self-defense groups and not other than the Knights Templar. But do not imagine these last knights on horseback and wearing long robes. This is not a reincarnation or resurrection of the very famous Crusaders defenders and other characters from the Middle Age. No. It is a fierce group of traffickers who have taken the name of the Knights Templar and who are devoted to commit extortion, rape and murder in the Mexican state of Michoacn. In this state, in 2012, 55 people of every 100 were poor, 2.44 million in absolute numbers, of which 650,000 are extremely poor. Adding to this is the educational underdevelopment and the work recession that increased 29 percent, which makes things very, very difficult in this federal entity. Also, for long, traffickers have exercised power in a violent and sadistic manner, for instance kidnapping women from their opponents and not returning them until they were pregnant, among other atrocities. Justified or not, the fact is that civilians have decided to arm themselves since a year ago, and thus must rely on certain central government complacency, because according to what you see in the images, this group has provisioned themselves with modern arms and not simple machetes or sticks to defend themselves, and as things are getting out of control, now the Mexican government is requiring these paramilitaries to surrender their weapons, which they refuse to do because the reason they got together is still up and running: the despotic power of the Knights Templar, who by the way seem to have some popular support , as some see them as a brotherhood serving the people, whose principles (53) were collected in a small notebook that was once distributed from door to door. Among its guidelines, the Knights Templar say to recognize the right of peoples and nations to govern themselves within their natural economic environment and take a stand for support for freedom of expression, conscience and religion, including the diversity of beliefs, because the Templar should try to understand how others get close to God. Today the self-defense groups do not believe in these predicaments and the fighting is frontal, hence fits to wonder, and when will be there peace for families in Michoacn?

Luisa Ortiz-Aponte, Amparo Soria y sus dos hijas

Programa Familiar Comunidad Saludable


Antes de que ella se mudara a Delaware, Amparo Soria vivi en Illinois. Cuando se enferm, fue a un centro de salud local. Poco despus, recibi una factura por ms de $1,000.
Cuando me enferm de nuevo, no volv porque no poda pagarlo, dijo. En Delaware, Soria se reuni de nuevo con su marido y consigui un trabajo con un servicio de limpieza que hace trabajos para Christiana Care. La pareja se estableci en Newark con un hijo y una hija, la menor de seis hermanos. Lejos de amigos y familiares en Mxico, se preocupaba por mantener a la familia saludable. Su hijo de 17 aos de edad se lastim la cabeza en un accidente. Su hija de 12 aos de edad tiene escoliosis, una curvatura de la columna vertebral. Era difcil saber qu hacer o por dnde empezar, porque no tengo seguro, dijo ella. Soria obtuvo la informacin que necesitaba de su jefe, Guadalupe Castaeda, una promotora activa entrenada por el personal del departamento de Community Health Outreach & Education de Christiana Care. Las promotoras son latinas que promueven el bienestar y las pruebas de deteccin de cncer en la comunidad hispana. Castaeda le sugiri a Soria que contactara Healthy Families, un programa gratuito administrado por Christiana Care y el Centro Comunitario Latinoamericano (LACC por sus siglas en ingls ) para las familias en el Condado New Castle que quieren llevar una vida ms saludable. El programa ayuda a las familias, incluidas personas que no tienen seguro, personas que necesitan pruebas de deteccin y atencin preventiva, pacientes con enfermedades crnicas y nios con asma. El programa est financiado por el Fondo Cannon Arsht. Soria llam a Luisa Ortiz-Aponte, la directora del programa en Christiana Care. Ortiz- Aponte, quien es bilinge, ayud a Soria a identificar diversos recursos a travs de las muchas relaciones de Christiana Care. El primer paso fue proporcionar informacin a Soria para que pudiera elegir a un proveedor de atencin primaria que hablara espaol en un lugar cerca de su casa. Cuando el hijo de Soria se lastim la cabeza, Ortiz- Aponte le ayud a realizar las conexiones necesarias para obtener una tomografa computarizada para asegurarse de que su lesin no requiriera tratamiento adicional. La hija de Soria est recibiendo la atencin que necesita tambin. En febrero ella se someter a una ciruga en el hospital de nios Nemours/Alfred I. duPont Hospital for Children. Ortiz- Aponte tambin est trabajando en una referencia para el marido de Soria, que tiene problemas de espalda. Hay muchos lugares donde las personas pueden obtener atencin y exmenes, pero puede ser que no sepan dnde ir o cmo empezar, dijo Ortiz- Aponte. Estamos aqu para ayudar. La Dra. Marielena Vlez de Brown, coordinadora de Healthy Families en el LACC en Wilmington, dijo que el programa tambin puede ayudar a las personas a superar los obstculos hacia la atencin mdica. A menudo vemos a personas que trabajan varios trabajos a tiempo parcial, dijo ella. La clave puede ser encontrar a un mdico con horario de atencin extendido. A los 50, Soria ha pasado la edad recomendada de 40 para una primera mamografa. Ella recibi un examen gratuito en el centro de oncologa Helen F. Graham Cancer Center & Research Institute. En una maana reciente, ella vino a hacerse pruebas de seguimiento ordenadas por su mdico despus de que la mamografa revel una masa. Soria estuvo acompaado de sus hijas mayores, Rosa Isela y Mara Isabel, quienes estaban de visita de Mxico. Un intrprete mdico certificado

estaba esperando para ayudarla. Estoy muy agradecido a Healthy Families y a Luisa, que me tom de la mano y me mostr dnde tena que ir, dijo. El programa y las promotoras estn conectando a las familias con servicios para muchas necesidades de atencin mdica, como la diabetes, el asma, la deteccin de cncer, pruebas de VIH, atencin dental y otras inquietudes. Se necesita gente de base para ampliar nuestra capacidad de encontrar familias que necesitan ayuda, dijo Nora Katurakes, gerente del programa Community Outreach and Education del instituto Graham Cancer Center. Juntos podemos construir familias saludables, una familia a la vez. Usted puede ayudar a otras personas en la comunidad a tener familias saludables. Para mayor informacin sobre cmo convertirse en Promotora, llame al 302 - 623-4747.

Community Healthy Family Program

Before she moved to Delaware, Amparo Soria lived in Illinois. When she was ill, she went to a local health center. Soon after, she received a bill for more than $1,000.
When I got sick again, I did not go back because I could not afford it, she said. In Delaware, Soria was reunited with her husband and got a job with a cleaning service that does work for Christiana Care. The couple settled in Newark with a son and daughter, the youngest of six children. Far from friends and family members in Mexico, she worried about keeping the family healthy. Her 17-year-old son hurt his head in an accident. Her 12-year-old daughter has scoliosis, a curvature of the spine. It was hard to know what to do or where to begin because I dont have insurance, she said. Soria got the information she needed from her boss, Guadalupe Castaneda, an active promotora trained by Christiana Cares Community Health Outreach and Education staff. Promotoras are Latinas

who promote wellness and screenings for cancer throughout the Hispanic community. Castaneda suggested Soria contact Healthy Families, a free program administered by Christiana Care and the Latin American Community Center (LACC) for families in New Castle County who want to lead healthier lives. The program helps families, including people without insurance, individuals who need screenings and preventative care, patients with chronic diseases and children with asthma. It is funded by the Arsht Cannon Fund. Soria called Luisa Ortiz-Aponte, the program manager at Christiana Care. Ortiz-Aponte, who is bilingual, helped Soria to identify various resources through Christiana Cares many relationships. The first step was providing Soria with information so that she could choose a primary care provider who speaks Spanish at a location that is convenient to her home. When Sorias son hurt his head, Ortiz-Aponte helped her to make the connections necessary to obtain a CT scan to make certain his injury did not require further treatment. Sorias daughter is getting the care she needs, too. In February, she will undergo surgery at Nemours/ Alfred I. duPont Hospital for Children. Ortiz-Aponte also is working on a referral for Sorias husband, who has back problems. There are many places where people can get care and screenings but they might not know where to go or how to get started, Ortiz-Aponte said. We are here to help. Dr. Marielena Velez de Brown, who coordinates Healthy Families at the LACC in Wilmington, said the program also can help people to overcome obstacles to care. We often see people who work several part-time jobs, she said. The key might be finding a doctor with extended office hours. At 50, Soria is past the recommended age of 40 for a first mammogram. She received a free screening at the Helen F. Graham Cancer Center & Research Institute. On a recent morning, she came for follow-up tests ordered by her doctor after the mammogram revealed a mass. Soria was accompanied by her older daughters, Rosa Isela and Maria Isabel, who were visiting from Mexico. A certified medical interpreter was waiting to help. I am very grateful to Healthy Families and to Luisa, who held my hand and showed me where I needed to go, she said. The program and the promotoras are connecting families with services for many health care needs, including diabetes, asthma, cancer screenings, HIV testing, dental care and other concerns. It takes grassroots people to expand our ability to find families who need help, said Nora Katurakes, manager, Community Outreach and Education at the Graham Cancer Center. Together, we can build healthy families, one family at a time. You can help other people in the community to have healthy families. To learn more about becoming a Promotora, call 302- 623-4747.

Un Punto de Vista A Matter Of View

| Keyla I. Rivero-Rodriguez

Ao Nuevo
Aqu estamos, un par de semanas en el ao 2014. El sonido de esta expresin evoca sentimientos de esperanza , borrn y cuenta nueva , o simplemente un nuevo comienzo para un nuevo ao . No quiero resoluciones de Ao Nuevo para m, por favor, pero tal vez algo para enriquecer mi espritu. A lo mejor ste es el ao para ser ms amable conmigo y con los dems de una manera desinteresada. A dnde voy con esto? Pues bien, durante los ltimos cuatro aos me he estado dejando crecer el pelo. S, desde hace varios aos, no luzco como la mujer en la foto de mi columna. Lo creas o no, mi cabello me llegaba a la cintura porque la ltima vez que me cort el pelo fue en 2009 despus de que mi amiga Dianne perdi su batalla contra el cncer. Recuerdo vivamente su llanto mientras me mostraba cmo estaba perdiendo su cabello debido a tratamientos de quimioterapia y cmo ella dijo que yo no tena que preocuparme por ello porque yo tena un hermoso cabello grueso. En ese entonces yo le dije mi pelo no me define, yo lo defino a l. Y para mostrar mi amor y apoyo a ella, ese mismo da, tan pronto como llegu a casa, me cort el pelo usando las tijeras de mi hijo. Desde entonces y despus de su muerte, no me he cortado el pelo. Despus de cuatro aos, decid que en su honor, me gustara donar mi cabello para un paciente de cncer en necesidad de una peluca. El 31 de diciembre tuve una cita en la maana con Brenda para cortarme el pelo. Pens que esto sera una maravillosa manera de empezar un nuevo ao con una nueva imagen, un nuevo yo! Tengo que decir que nunca me he sentido mejor en hacer un acto tan desinteresado de la bondad y amor. Es divertido, pero cuando la gente me ve me dicen oh no, te cortaste el pelo, tu hermoso pelo, ests loca?... y no paran de comentar al respecto. Sin embargo, tan pronto como les digo Yo don mi pelo sus voces y actitud cambian por completo a una respuesta ms agradable y un tanto cariosa y de admiracin hacia m. Me pregunto por qu? Es por el hecho de hacer algo desinteresado y drstico? Nos hemos convertido de tal manera en una sociedad del yo que nos hemos olvidado cmo dar? Este acto no fue una resolucin de Ao Nuevo de mi parte. A pesar de que muchos de mis amigos han compartido conmigo algunas de sus resoluciones, y parece gracioso pero otros ya han abandonado su resolucin, ya yo no me presiono a m misma para hacer ninguna resolucin. En general , slo quiero llegar a ser una persona mejor a mi propio paso y ritmo. Estoy muy cansada de prometerme a m misma que ste es el ao para perder peso, o hacer ms ejercicio, comer ms saludable e incluso utilizar ms el hilo dental. Pero todos sabemos que esas resoluciones de Ao Nuevo slo duran un par de semanas, si es que siquiera comienzan. Hacindonos sentir como si nos hemos fallado nosotros mismos por no perseverar con nuestras resoluciones. He decidido que tengo que ser ms amable conmigo misma y perdonarme a m misma ya los dems. Liberar todos esos sentimientos de rabia, dolor y frustracin no es algo fcil de hacer, pero tengan en cuenta que no se trata de ellos u otros. Esto se trata de m, de nosotros y de nuestro espritu y de desprenderse del dolor y del dao que nos estn conteniendo. Tambin nos libera de equipaje que es posible que hayamos estado llevando y que ya no nos sirve de nada. El acto de la liberacin y el perdn promueve la curacin y nos da la oportunidad de seguir adelante. Es saludable para nuestras mentes y nuestras almas y es entonces cuando nos permitimos crecer y mantenernos sanos y menos estresados! Decidan lo que decidan, no se olviden que no hay una resolucin incorrecta. Feliz 2014 y brindo para que sean personas mejores y ms saludables!

New Year
Here we are, a couple of weeks into 2014. The sound of it evokes feelings of hope, clean slate, or just new beginnings for a brand new year. No New Years resolutions for me please, but maybe something to enrich my spirit. Maybe it is the year to be kinder towards me and others in a selfless way. Where am I going with this? Well, for the past four years I have been letting my hair grow. Yes, for several years now, I have not looked like the woman on my columns pic. Believe it or not, my hair was down to my waist because last time I had a haircut was back in 2009 after my friend Dianne lost her battle to cancer. I vividly remember her crying while showing me how she was losing her hair due to chemo treatment and how she said that I didnt have to worry about it because I had beautiful thick hair. Back then I told her hair doesnt define me, I define it. And to show my love and support to her, that same day as soon as I got home, I clipped my hair off using my sons clippers. Since then and after her passing, I have not cut my hair. After four years, I decided that in her honor, I would donate my hair to a cancer patient in need of a wig. On December 31st I had a morning appointment with Brenda to cut my hair. I thought that this would be a wonderful way to start a brand new year with a new look, a new me! I have to say that I have never felt better in doing such a selfless act of kindness and love. Is funny, but when people see me they say to me oh no, you cut your hair, your beautiful hair, are you crazy... and they just go on and on about it. However, as soon as I say I donated my hair their voices and attitude completely changes to a kinder and somewhat loving and admiring response toward me. I wonder why? Is it because of the act of doing something selfless and drastic? Have we become such a me society that we have forgotten how to give? This act was not a New Years resolution on my part. Even though many of my friends have shared with me some of their resolutions, and funny to say that others have already quit to that attempt, I no longer pressure myself to making any resolutions. Overall, I just want to become a better person at my own pace and rhythm. Very tired of promising myself that this is the year to lose weight, or exercise more, eat healthier and even floss more! But we all know, that those New Years resolutions may only last a couple of weeks, if they even take off. Making us feel as though we have failed ourselves for not staying on course with our resolutions. I have decided that I need to be kinder to myself and forgive myself and others. Releasing all those feelings of anger, hurt and frustration is not something that is easy to do, but be mindful that this is not about them or others. This is about me, us and our spirit and the letting go of the pain and the hurt that is holding us back. It also releases us from baggage that we may have been carrying that serves us no more. The act of releasing and forgiving promotes healing and gives us the opportunity to move on. It is healthy for our minds and our souls and that is when we allow growth to enter and keep us healthy and less stressed! Whatever you decide, dont forget that there is no wrong resolution. Happy New 2014 and I cheer for a better and healthier you!

TRUTH, JUSTICE AND THE AMERICAN WAY.
By Raoul Lowery Contreras
Truth, justice and the American way are discarded by of all people those who call themselves patriots and true Americans on the subjects of Immigration and immigration reform. This is important as crunch time for congress is upon us what with their holiday home visits over and their return to the capitol to conduct election year business. Will congress use truth as the measure of the issues involved? That will be difficult for the opponents live and breathe misinformation and outright falsehoods. For example, they chant that there are 30 million illegal aliens in the U.S. Just how do they arrive at that number? They just make it up -- for not a single legitimate source such as the Census Bureau, Department of Homeland Security Immigration division or any legitimate think tank estimates that there are more than 12 million people in the country illegally. Not only is there no federal agency that counts people issuing any counts larger than 11-12 million but Homeland estimates that half of those here illegally enter legally and overstay legitimate visas. Is their estimate of 30-million people true or false? FALSE. Is it possible that they arrive at the 30-million number because they consider all Hispanics of Mexican backgrounds to be illegal? Other than is an outright lie, their view is constructed from their inability to accept that two thirds of all 53 million (est.) Hispanics are of Mexican origin with the vast majority being native born American citizens. Their logic appears to be that because so many illegally present people are Mexican, all Mexican origin people must be illegals. Can it be bigotry that they rely on to conjure up their fiction of 30-million illegals? Can their excuse be that all Mexicans and Mexican Americans look alike, legal and illegal? Another myth is that illegally present Mexicans have a high crime rate. Lets use some Sentencing Project studies that concluded in 2005 that 480 Whites per hundred thousand were incarcerated in State of Florida prisons, 2615 Blacks per hundred thousand and only 382 Hispanics which must include some here illegally. Nationally the federal Bureau of Prisons and Bureau of Prison Statistics reports that Whites nationally are incarcerated at the Florida rate and Blacks about half the Florida rate (1100) while Hispanics are about double the Florida rate (650). These figures include all Hispanics, not just Mexican nationals here illegally. Another version of this myth includes declarations that 12 Americans are murdered every day by illegals from Mexico alone. Their source: This comes from a retired Immigration officer who gave that number to the office of Congressman Steve King (R-IA) that published it in a newsletter. There is no official statistic from any government agency, university or non-profit organization, none, that has any such statistic. Speaking of deaths caused by illegally present Mexicans, the critics declare that 4000 Americans are killed every year by illegally present drivers. Is this number from state and federal highway agencies or law enforcement? No. It also is a fictional statistic. Certainly there may be some auto accidents and deaths caused by illegally present Mexicans but there are no official statistics for anyone to use. As there are no such statistics, perhaps the critic-mythmakers should look at San Diego County, the most populous American county on the border with one of Mexicos largest cities, Tijuana. The California Highway Patrol reports that 650,000 Mexican trucks enter and drive around San Diego County a year, 20,000 a day, five days a week. Add to these 650,000 legal drivers some who arent legal as one can assume there are some illegally present drivers on the same roads. How many Americans are killed by these hundreds of thousands Mexican drivers in San Diego County? Who knows? Cant remember a single one in the past two or three years. There is one interesting statistic about Americans killed on our roads; 5000 are killed every year by licensed commercial truckers. Maybe some of them look Mexican, illegally present Mexicans. So where is the crime wave? Studies by legitimate sources indicate that native born Americans are ten times more likely to commit crimes than any immigrant much less Mexicans immigrants, legal and illegal. How, they ask, are illegally present people able to utilize rights such as a fair trial, confronting witnesses, attend public schools, be counted in the Census, etc.; they are illegally here arent they? Yes, they are, so what? There is no provision in the Constitution that denies rights to anyone who is not a citizen. In fact most references to people are persons not citizens. The use of the word citizen is used to define qualifications for office such as natural born citizen for President. Truth, justice and the American Constitution, assaulted as they are by ignorance -nevertheless are what we live by, thankfully. Virginia Governor George Allen decided his state needed uniform measures to elevate outcomes. Pennsylvanias Tom Ridge created a tax credit program to fund school choice scholarships and secured a hard-fought charter school law. And Jeb Bush of Florida oversaw some of the deepest education policy changes the nation has ever seen. That fervor ignited a movement of educators, parents, and community leaders who started schools, turned around existing ones, became legislators, and created innovations in learning and school delivery, including digital learning. What was once a fast and furious run for school reform from the ground up has come to a steady crawl, incapable of reversing educational decline. When governors are strong, they counter special interests teachers unions, school boards associations, and the like that inhibit progress. When governors are weak, policies emanate from above to supplant state programs. Apathetic or timid governors wait for bills to reach their desks, allow special interests to organize, and govern by favorability ratings. The result is a lack of commitment to executing much needed changes. For example, charter schools are known to be hotbeds of innovation or providers of quality education. Despite numerous studies attesting to their progress in closing the achievement gap, charter schools are still expanding in low numbers in some states, and exist with policies that hamstring those who wish to open them in others. It sounds dramatic that 42 states and D.C. have charter laws, but only half that number have any vibrant charter environment that can help a small number of students. State leaders are key to creating more options, yet laws that need to be improved are compromised from the first discussions. Kentucky Gov. Steve Bashear recently remarked that his state didnt need charter schools because the education system was improving, despite evidence to the contrary. He was confusing activity and effort with results, a common problem among todays leaders. Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Corbett once declared education a top priority but has achieved little reform despite his partys full control of the state legislature. Even with Chris Christie, New Jersey moved forward in requiring teachers be evaluated as a condition of employment, yet the final compromise with unions resulted in more ways to skirt the system. Some state officials show promise of becoming tomorrows reform leaders. Wisconsins Scott Walker looked unions in the eye and didnt blink. Louisianas Bobby Jindal has set records for positive education reform lawmaking in a state where a devastating storm served as a catalyst for a new public education landscape. Both have state legislatures excited to join them in fighting the status quo. Make no mistake the U.S. education system remains in crisis and the achievement gap between poor and minority students and the rest of society remains wide. Most people are aware that the solution is not more money or superficial changes. The key to solving the crisis is electing governors who understand that they have the power to change a system, and holding them accountable to do so. With 36 gubernatorial elections underway in 2014, we should all resolve to make education our top priority when we take to the polls in November. Jeanne Allen founded the Center for Education Reform (CER) in 1993.

HOw tO SOLVe the EducatiOn Crisis - Its all about who you elect. Strong education leaders needed in 2014 elections

By Jeanne Allen & Kara Kerwin Thanks to assessments of educational progress, we know where our children stand compared to other communities, states, and even nations. Now that the holidays are behind us, its time to take stock of how we are doing, and set resolutions for the New Year. According to the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA), U.S. students are lagging behind. 2012 results show the U.S. is on a rapid decline, ranking 36th in math, 24th in reading, and 28th in science. On the Nations Report Card (NAEP), only 34% of 8th graders are proficient in reading and math. Where have we gone wrong? Quite simply, weve elected the wrong people. In response to children demonstrating less proficiency, the Governors of the 1980s started a movement that reduced federal meddling in state policy and united both parties over issues of choice and accountability. Then-Governors Lamar Alexander of Tennessee and Bill Clinton of Arkansas embraced transformative changes, coalesced other state leaders into an outspoken force, and brought their efforts to national prominence at a groundbreaking policy-making summit in Charlottesville, VA. Governor Tommy Thompson partnered with Democratic and African-American lawmaker Polly Williams to enact the nations first voucher program for the neediest children. Bold leadership in the 1990s saw then-Michigan Governor John Engler buck his own party to equalize school funding, permit parent choices, and enact a charter school law that remains a national model today. Standards and accountability were heresy when

Abuse of Power Lawsuit Filed Against DNREC


Agencys new emission permit fees violate state constitution
The Caesar Rodney Institute (CRI) announced that David Stevenson, Director of the Center for Energy Competitiveness at CRI, is among four plaintiffs who filed a lawsuit last week against DNREC and DNREC Secretary Colin OMara. The complaint asserts Secretary OMara has not been delegated the power to reduce the agencys new carbon emissions goals, which is the basis for raising the carbon dioxide permit fees. The plaintiffs also believe DNREC is violating the Delaware Constitution by issuing a regulation on carbon dioxide emission permit fees without the state legislature, as required in the state constitution. This new regulatory ruling will cost Delaware families and businesses over $50 million a year in fees collected through consumers electric bills. Multiple parties warned DNREC this decision was a potential violation of the Delaware Constitution in public comment sessions but the comments were ignored, Stevenson explained. The state constitution specifically requires that all taxes and fees must be approved by a 3/5 majority in each legislative chamber. One of the biggest debates in the legislature this year was over a tax increase, Plaintiff and State Representative Harold Jack Peterman said. Twenty-two legislators opposed an attempt by Delmarva Power to raise electric rates, and both issues involved less money than this. Twenty-five percent of the money collected must be spent on energy efficiency projects and on helping people pay their electric bills, according to a multi-state Memorandum of Understanding. Unlike most state spending, the legislature has no say in how the money raised from this fee increase will be spent. The other plaintiffs are: Christian Hudson, of Hudson Management and Sam Yoder & Sons in Greenwood; and John Moore, CEO of Acorn Energy in Wilmington and a CRI board member. Businesses are already struggling with high electric bills; we dont need to add to the problem and make Delaware less competitive, Hudson said. The regulatory change DNREC is proposing doesnt appear to be about the environment but rather about raising more state revenue, Moore said. The case will be heard by Judge Richard F. Stokes, Superior Court judge, in Georgetown. Read the full complaint: http://www.caesarrodney.org/pdfs/DNREC_Lawsuit.pdf

Demanda por Abuso de Poder presentada contra DNREC


Nuevas tarifas de la Agencia por emisin de permisos violan la constitucin del estado
El Instituto Caesar Rodney (CRI por sus siglas en ingls) anunci que David Stevenson, Director del Centro para la Competitividad de la Energa del CRI, es uno de los cuatro demandantes que presentaron una demanda la semana pasada contra DNREC y el Secretario de DNREC Colin OMara. La denuncia afirma que al Secretario OMara no se le ha delegado el poder de reducir las nuevas metas de emisiones de carbono de la agencia, que es la base para plantear el aumento de las tarifas de permisos de dixido de carbono. Los demandantes tambin creen que DNREC est violando la Constitucin de Delaware por la publicacin de un reglamento relativo a las tarifas de permisos de emisiones de dixido de carbono sin la legislatura estatal, como se requiere en la constitucin del estado. Esta nueva norma reguladora costar a las familias y las empresas de Delaware ms de $50 millones al ao en tarifas recaudadas a travs de las facturas de electricidad de los consumidores. Muchos grupos advirtieron al DNREC que esta decisin era una posible violacin de la Constitucin de Delaware en las sesiones de comentario pblico, pero los comentarios fueron ignorados, explic Stevenson. La constitucin estatal requiere especficamente que todos los impuestos y cargos deben ser aprobados por una mayora de 3/5 en cada cmara legislativa. Uno de los mayores debates en la legislatura este ao fue sobre una subida de impuestos, dijo el demandante y el representante estatal Harold Jack Peterman. Veintids legisladores se opusieron a un intento por parte de Delmarva Power para elevar las tarifas elctricas, y ambas cuestiones involucran menos dinero que esto. El veinticinco por ciento del dinero recaudado debe ser gastado en proyectos de eficiencia energtica y en ayudar a las personas a pagar sus cuentas de electricidad, de acuerdo con un Memorndum de Entendimiento multi-estatal. A diferencia de la mayor parte del gasto estatal, la legislatura no tiene voz en cmo se gastar el dinero recaudado por este aumento de tasas. Los otros demandantes son: Christian Hudson, de Hudson Management y Sam Yoder & Sons en Greenwood; y John Moore, Director de Acorn Energy en Wilmington y miembro del consejo de CRI. Las empresas ya estn teniendo problemas por sus altas facturas de electricidad, no es necesario agregar dificultades y hacer a Delaware menos competitivo, dijo Hudson. El cambio normativo que DNREC est proponiendo no parece ser sobre el medio ambiente, sino ms bien sobre recaudar ms ingresos del Estado, dijo Moore. El caso ser escuchado por el juez Richard F. Stokes, juez de la Corte Superior, en Georgetown. Lea la demanda completa: http://www.caesarrodney.org/pdfs/DNREC_Lawsuit.pdf

Farewell to Simn Alejandro


> Claudia Acero

Simn Alejandro Surez Miranda was born on June 3, 1983 in Puerto Ordaz, Venezuela, and died in a tragic accident in the same city on December 21, 2013.

He came to USA at age 13, attended Glasgow High School and then worked as Manager of Pats Pizza. Simn Alejandro was the youngest of 5 siblings, the baby of the family. Those who knew him remember him as a fighter, a good husband, father, son, brother, uncle and friend! After 15 years, for the first time, Alejandro returned to his country and birthplace: Puerto Ordaz, Venezuela, in August 2011. This time it was to say goodbye to his dad, Jos Vilibardo Surez Barrero, who died of cancer shortly after. For the second time he returned to Puerto Ordaz, Venezuela, in December 2013 to meet with all his family and attend a family wedding as best man. Relatives who were with him at the wedding recall how proud Alejandro was of his wife Miriam and their children, and how he couldnt stop naming all the places he wanted to go to share with them when they arrived. Miriam and the kids had planned to travel to Venezuela for the first time to meet Alejandros family and be reunited with him for Christmas Eve, and then spend New Year together, but he traveled before they did to attend the wedding. On early morning hours of December 21, after the wedding ceremony and having shared with all his family and friends, Alejandro died in a car accident that took the life, dreams, plans, and perfect life with his family. Instantly in the accident died a young couple of 24 years old, and two more were injured. He left disconsolate his wife Miriam Surez Zevallos, whom he called his Doll. Theirs was love was at first sight. They met in September 2010, started dating, got engaged, got married, bought a house and Alejandrito Jr. arrived, everything was like a perfect dream. He is survived by his wife and two sons: Alejandro Jacob Surez, 11 months, and Christian A. Lozada 7 years old (one of the admirable things about Alejandro is that although Christian was his stepson, he always referred to him as his son.) He also left his entire family and friends flooded with sadness at the unexpected departure of such a young person full of life and many dreams. Until the last moment Alejandro fought for his life, but died on arrival at hospital. Upon hearing this tragic news, his wife Miriam traveled with her heart broken to Venezuela to meet his love, and his children stayed with family in USA, all plans changed drastically. Alejandro Surez will always live in Alejandrito Surez Jr., will live in the beautiful memories with his family, and although his body is not here, his presence will always be felt. A fund has been set to help Mimi and her children after the unexpected departure of our beloved Alejandro. Lets unite to help Mimi in this difficult time, taking a minute to make a donation!

Inclusin o Exclusin
El distrito escolar Red Clay, en Wilmington, quiere llevar a cabo un plan para hacer sus escuelas ms inclusivas.
>Gabriel Pilonieta-Blanco Sin embargo, en la reunin de la junta directiva del distrito que se llev a cabo el mircoles 15 de enero, las opiniones fueron encontradas y, sobre todo, sali a flote que en los planes de los administradores, las familias han sido dejadas de lado. Segn informa la pgina web del distrito, la Junta Educativa de Red Clay solicit que se lleven a cabo sesiones de informacin pblica en cada escuela de Red Clay para explicar con detalle la nueva propuesta que tiene como meta desplazar los Programas de Educacin Especial y las Escuelas Especiales para convertirlas en escuelas en el hogar. Pero, al menos hasta ahora, ese plan no est disponible para que las personas interesadas lo conozcan. En resumen el plan plantea que cada estudiante vaya a la escuela de su vecindario. Esto traer como consecuencia que escuelas como, Mote Elementary, que cuenta con un fuerte programa de enseanza para estudiantes que no hablan ingls, dejen de recibir a estudiantes de todas partes (en este momento el 85% de sus alumnos son hispanos) y estos a su vez seran reubicados. Muchos maestros de Mote dieron su testimonio. Algunos llegaron hasta las lgrimas de la emocin durante la reunin de la junta haciendo hincapi que, el sentimiento de familia es uno que todo maestro, empleado, padre y estudiante puede compartir. Es fcil desarrollar dicho sentimiento

La sensacin que se tiene al respecto es que se quieren hacer cambios para los que las escuelas no estn preparadas y, se preguntan, s los nios se van a cambiar de escuela, perdiendo no solo a sus compaeros y maestros con lo que ya ha desarrollado una relacin, sino que no hay suficiente personal preparado para dar continuidad al programa de enseanza acadmico. Por ejemplo la seora Maria Martinez comento que a su hijo le corresponde una escuela en Newark, donde nadie habla espaol y ella prefiere llevarlo a Mote, all si est aprendiendo de verdad dice. Es importante, nos parece, que los padres asistan masivamente a las futuras presentaciones del plan Entendiendo la Visin Inclusiva de Red Clay. sta presentacin explicar cmo fue creado el plan, comenzando por el plan estratgico del distrito de revisar los programas de Aprendizaje de Ingls como Segunda Lengua y de Educacin Especial con los padres, maestros, ayudantes profesionales y administradores. A Michael Martinez, tambin maestro de Mote, le parece una injusticia que quieran implementar estas decisiones sin consultar a las familias afectadas. Las mejores familias, super interesadas en el progreso acadmico, y es bien cierto que el pasado martes hicieron acto de presencia y dieron su opinin varias familias hispanas an hace falta mucha ms asistencia a las reuniones de informacin para realmente tener una opinin bien informada. Aunque se plante que las horas en que se han convocado las reuniones no son las mejores (la gente est trabajando) Las sesiones de informacin se llevaran a cabo de 5:30 a 6:30 p.m. tambin incluirn sesiones de preguntas y respuestas y su horario ser el siguiente: 22 de enero en Baltz Elementary, Brandywine Springs School, Forest Oak Elementary/Meadowood, Highlands Elementary, Linden Hill Elementary y Marbrook Elementary El 23 de enero en Mote Elementary, North Star Elementary, Richardson Park Elementary/Richardson Park Learning Center, Richey Elementary, Shortlidge Academy and Warner Elementary El 28 de enero ent A.I. High, Cab Calloway School of the Arts, The Central School, Dickinson High, Heritage Elementary and McKean High El 29 de enero en A.I. Middle, Conrad Schools of Science, H.B. Middle, Lewis Elementary, Skyline Middle y Stanton Middle Las autoridades del distrito deben considerar una mejor forma de comunicar sus planes a las familias si quieren que sean tomados con seriedad, muchas familias no tienen computadora en casa y menos acceso al internet y la informacin no est disponible en espaol, para que la gente entienda las propuestas. En todo caso se contempla en el mes de marzo como la fecha tentativa para iniciar el plan pero se pidieron ms secciones informativas, peticin que incluye a algunos miembros de la junta. Por ahora participe en las reuniones en las que se reciben comentarios.

en esta escuela gracias al xito de nuestros programas, dijo la maestra Kristi Chase, sus calificaciones y los resultados de nuestras evaluaciones jams han sido tan altos. De esto se trata la educacin: desafiar a los estudiantes, construir autoestima y ayudarlos a triunfar. Dejen a nuestros estudiantes en Mote. La presentacin incluir informacin antes publicada en el reporte Triunfo Acadmico para Todos: El Plan de Red Clay para una Enseanza Inclusiva---Hacia la inclusin. Informacin adicional tambin ser incluida, tal y como cuntos estudiantes de Educacin Especial sern designados a cada escuela, la proporcin de maestros a estudiantes, y un resumen del proceso de planeacin, el cual comenz en julio del 2012.

Inclusion or Exclusion
The Red Clay School District, in Wilmington, wants to create more inclusive schools.
>Gabriel Pilonieta-Blanco

educacin education

January 23 at Mote Elementary, North Star Elementary, Richardson Park Elementary/Richardson Park Learning Center, Richey Elementary, Shortlidge Academy and Warner Elementary January 28 at A.I. High, Cab Calloway School of the Arts, The Central School, Dickinson High, Heritage Elementary and McKean High January 29 at A.I. Middle, Conrad Schools of Science, H.B. Middle, Lewis Elementary, Skyline Middle and Stanton Middle

The district authorities must consider a better way to communicate with the families if they wish to be taken seriously. Many families do not own computers or have access to the internet, and most of the information has not been translated into Spanish. In any case, March has been set as the tentative month for the plan to begin, however more information sessions have been requested. For now, please participate in the meetings where your opinion will be well received.

However, the Board of Education meeting that took place on Wednesday January 15th saw opinion clashes, making it evident that, within the administrative plans, the families have been pushed aside. According to the District web page, at the request of the Red Clay Board of Education the district has scheduled a public information session at every Red Clay school to further explain a proposal to transition Special Programs and Special Schools to home schools. On the other hand, until now, that proposal has not been made available for the public. In summary, the idea is that every student would be relocated to a school in their neighborhood. This would mean that schools, such as Mote Elementary whose curriculum includes English teaching as a second language, would be less diverse (Mote counts with an 85% of Hispanic students) and that these programs, for students with language needs, would be terminated. Many teachers from Mote Elementary gave their testimony. Teared eyed and emotional, they shared their feelings during the School Board meeting. The feeling of family is one that any teacher, support staff, parent and student will express to you. It is easy to develop such feelings at this school because of the successful programs that Mote has in place, said teacher Kristi Chase, their grades and our test scores are the best they have ever been. Our students want to come to school. Do not take this away from our students. This is what education is all about: challenging students, building confidence and allowing them to succeed. Leave our students at Mote. The presentation will include information included in a previously released report, called Academic Success for All: Red Clays Plan for Inclusive Instruction--Moving More Inclusively and additional information, including specific numbers on how many Special Education students would be assigned to each school, staffing ratios to students, and an overview of the planning process, which began in July 2012. The overall feeling is that an unexpected change, for which schools are not prepared, is coming. Everyone is asking what will happen to the students, whom have already created bonds with peers and teachers, and if there are enough staff members to continue with the academic program mentioned previously. Maria Martinez, for example, mentioned that her child would have to transfer to a school in Newark, where no one speaks Spanish. She would prefer to send her child to Mote, where learning does take place Martinez said. It appears important, that many parents go to all future presentations of the plan called Understanding Red Clays Vision for Inclusive Schools. The presentation will outline how the plan was created, beginning with direction from the district Strategic Plan to review the English Language Learners (ELL), and the Special Education programs with a stakeholders group of parents, teachers, paraprofessionals and administrators. Michael Martinez, also a teacher at Mote, believes that it is an injustice that they want to make these changes without consulting the families who will be affected, especially those families that are always interested in their children academic progress. Although some Hispanic families raised their concerns at the meeting this past Tuesday, more families are needed in order to create an informed opinion. Even though it was raised that the meeting times are not the most convenient, the information sessions will be held from 5:30 to 6:30 pm including a Question and Answer section- at: January 22 at Baltz Elementary, Brandywine Springs School, Forest Oak Elementary/Meadowood, Highlands Elementary, Linden Hill Elementary and Marbrook Elementary

Get Checked for Colorectal Cancer


If youre age 50 or older and havent been checked for colorectal cancer, you should.
Colorectal cancer is the third most common type of cancer in both men and women. Nearly 137,000 Americans a year are diagnosed with colorectal cancer and more than 51,000 die from the disease. Doctors conduct screening exams or tests to check for abnormal growths called polyps that can sometimes lead to colorectal cancer or to detect the disease early so it can be treated successfully. But too many Hispanics who should have these tests arent getting them, according to a recent report by the federal governments Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ). The agency found that less than half of Hispanics ages 50 to 75 report ever being checked for colorectal cancer. By comparison, nearly two-thirds of Whites the same age report being examined for colorectal cancer. AHRQ also found that Hispanics are less likely than Whites to get checked for colorectal cancer even when they have private health insurance or Medicare. This suggests that having health insurance doesnt always mean a person will receive the preventive health exams they need. Not knowing the danger of colorectal cancer and ways to detect the disease is a barrier, as can be cultural attitudes about seeing doctors unless youre sick. This may help explain why privately insured Hispanics are nearly 20 percent less likely to go visit the doctor at least once a year. AHRQ -- a branch of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services -- offers free online guides and podcasts to preventive health tests in Spanish. These are Mujeres: Sigan sanas despus de los 50 and Hombres: Sigan sanos despus de los 50. For information about colorectal cancer, go to http://www.cancer. gov/espanol/tipos/colorrecta

Si tiene 50 aos o ms y no se ha hecho la prueba del cncer colorrectal, hgasela.


El cncer colorrectal es el tercer tipo de cncer ms comn, tanto en las mujeres como en los hombres. Cerca de 137,000 estadounidenses son diagnosticados anualmente con cncer colorrectal y ms de 51,000 mueren a causa la condicin. Los mdicos realizan pruebas para detectar crecimientos anormales, llamados plipos, los cules pueden en algunos casos ocasionar cncer colorrectal o para ayudar a detectar la condicin temprano y poder tratarla con xito. Sin embargo, muchos hispanos que deben hacerse estos exmenes, no se los hacen, de acuerdo a un reporte reciente de la agencia federal Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ, por su sigla en ingls). La agencia encontr que menos de la mitad de los hispanos de edades entre los 50 y 75 aos reportaron haberse hecho una prueba de cncer colorrectal. Sin embargo, casi dos tercios de las personas anglosajonas, de la misma edad, reportaron haberse hecho la prueba del cncer colorrectal. AHRQ tambin encontr que los hispanos tienen una menor probabilidad que los anglosajones de hacerse la prueba de cncer colorrectal, aunque tengan seguro mdico privado o Medicare. Esto nos sugiere que el tener seguro mdico no significa que las personas recibirn siempre la atencin mdica que necesitan. El desconocer el peligro de tener cncer colorrectal y las formas de detectar la condicin son una barrera, as como tambin las actitudes culturales de visitar al mdico, slo cuando uno est enfermo.

It is with great pleasure that I bring to you the voice of the Chairs of the different subcommittees themselves to inform you of the accomplishments of the year 2013.
Our Chair, Javier Torrijos, lead all these efforts and support our team work. We hope to receive your comments, which will have a positive ripple effect for all.

Sonia Aguilar: The Economic Development subcommittee offered this past spring a Job seminar on How to Apply for a State Job. We led the development and rollout of the new Delaware Hispanic Commission Website. Coming soon (February 2014) to your community is the Hispanic American Business Resource Center, focused on serving the business needs of the Hispanic community .A bi- lingual business representative will be available to help anyone who want to start a business but does not know where to begin. This center will operate out of the community libraries Job Centers located in Seaford, Georgetown, Dover and Wilmington libraries. For dates and times visit our website www.hispanic.delaware.gov. We will offer one-on-one business consultant, offer business courses in Spanish and English on How to do business in Delaware, and/or assist you in expanding an existing business. Kevin Smith: The Housing subcommittee is in the process of releasing a letter to agencies in Delaware who have received government funding, reminding them of their obligation to meet Limited English Proficiency (LEP) standards in providing services to clients. This will better prepare agencies to serve Hispanics in Delaware.

Jennifer Cohan: The Transportation Committee for expanded public transit specifically in Sussex County and two new routes are scheduled to be added in 2015. The subcommittee also ensured that all DMV documentation (including website) is translated into Spanish. We did publish the white paper on Driver Privilege Card, and the Commercial Driver License guide into Spanish (We are one of only two states in the nation) to encourage CDL job opportunities. We also did many community events, reoccurring radio shows and sponsorships of events. Sandra Splanger: During 2013, the Education Subcommittee has advocated for the support of English Language Learning students (majority are Latinos). This includes a request for a direct funding stream through the state unit count formula and English proficiency coursework for all DE teachers. Advocacy efforts include presentations/requests to the State School Chiefs Association, DOE, and Governor Markell. Tanisha Merced: The Legal and Social Justice Subcommittee had a lot of overlap in topic area in 2013 with the transportation committee, the housing committee and the driving privilege coalition. We tackled several important issues. These included driving privileges for undocumented individuals, the need for bi-lingual mental health screens and ensuring that agencies receiving Title VI funding complied with the Titles compliance LEP requirement. Charito Calvachi-Mateyko: The Community Subcommittee organized the Hispanic Heritage Month event at the schwartz Center for the Arts in Dover with the sponsorship of the Arsht-Cannon Fund. We are in charge of doing it again on Saturday, October 4, 2014. Please, mark this day in your calendar. The full-day event starts at 10 a.m. with a Health Fair. Lunch and dinner will be provided as well as entertainment and a very important panel on Latino issues with the participation of the community. Being the best of who we are, we ensure an amazing future for the next generations of Latinos.
