El pasado 16 de septiem-bre cientos de traba-jadores de Kaiser

Permantente protestaron en lasafueras de el hospital localizadoen Santa Teresa en San José. Ellosprotestan por anuncio que hizoKaiser Permamente al querer re-ducir más de 1,800 empleos entodo el estado, a pesar de los ex-celentes resultados financieros yel alto nivel de atención que ofre-cen los trabajadores de Kaiser in-dica el sindicato.

A mediados de agosto, elKaiser anunció que los ingresos

netos para el trimestre fueron de $620 millones, casi el doble del se-gundo trimestre del año pasado ymuy por encima de sus propiasproyecciones.

Pocos días después, Kaiseranunció su intención de eliminar1,350 puestos de SEIU UHW entodo el estado - y conconocimiento de muchos de nuestros miembros por el nombre quesus posiciones fueron en la lista.

Este es el caso de MiguelGarcía quien trabaja en limpiezay está preocupado porque en dossemanas perdería el trabajo. “Nosnegamos a aceptar que el hospitalno tiene dinero cuando efectiva-

mente si lo tiene”.En un comunicado de prensa,

las autoridades de Kaiser Perma-nente expresaron que se hantomado varias medidas para ayu-dar a administrar los gastos ymantener el cuidado de sus miem-bros y sus clientes. Pero con lasituación económica ahora en-frenta desafíos. Por esta razóntomó la difícil decisión de elimi-nar a un número de posicionesrepresentadas en el Norte de California. Cada uno de los posicionesafectados han sido evaluadascuidadosamente para que no hayaningún efecto negativo en el ser-vicio a sus pacientes.

Trabajadores de Kaiser protestan por despidos

When one considers all that is in-volved in having an economythat benefits all, a wholistic ap-

proach is a requirement. Identifying the eco-nomic theory being applied helps the publicunderstand what is going on. Time is a factor.There is a need to gather factual information,which is then used to formulate public policythat benefits all stakeholders.

Legislation and regulation is needed toensure that our captains of industry are guidingtheir corporations in a manner that producesthe greatest good for the nation. Corporationsmust earn profits while providing employmentfor the labor force. There is a need to constantlymonitor all financial activities in order to detectfraud, profiteering, waste, ineffectiveness andother negative consequences.

This past summer was spent dealing withthe need to develop a comprehensive healthcare plan to create a seamless program ofhealth insurance coverage, which provides forall. It was only when all the stakeholders en-gaged were identified that it became possibleto propose a framework of legislation that builton what works now.

However, if we are to provide comprehen-sive health care insurance for all, we must for-mulate an economy that provides income, ifnot employment, for all. What is required is theplacement of money in the hands of consumerswho become empowered to make choices

when purchasing anything needed, includinghealth care insurance.

When our financial industry tanked, so didconsumerism allegedly because each individ-ual became more thoughtful and frugal as aconsumer. Recently credit card companieswhich have taken steps to raise their interestrates and charge fees for every possible serviceprovided, even the use of an ATM, are constrict-ing consumerism.

The American consumer economy hasbeen crippled by the prior fiscal policies of thisnation. The Obama administration would dowell to analyze the current practices of the en-tire financial industry so as to know where con-sumers are being abused, exploited orneglected.

There are too many financial industry ex-ecutive leaders who are totally committed toprofiteering without consideration of the sev-eral hundred millions of consumers who makeup this most powerful economic engine: TheAmerican Consumer Economy. Another majorfinancial meltdown must be prevented ifAmerica is to remain a global superpower.

Why is all this important to the averagecitizen? Well this stagnant economy, which re-sults in high unemployment levels, was causedby faulty fiscal public policy. Neither the Amer-ican people nor their elected officials are facingthe current reality that this recession presents.Past public policy permitted manufacturing to

go offshore with the outcome that ordinaryAmericans have no local jobs.

The main challenge to be faced by theObama Administration and which must be ad-dressed is the loss of competition in too manysectors of the global economy’s markets. Onemajor challenge is the loss of America’s manu-facturing capability, which provides well pay-ing jobs to its labor force. Another majorchallenge is to discover new ways to provideeconomic support to the unemployed. Povertylevels are increasing. Today the requirement tobe successfully competitive requires high levelsof automation and robotics, lower corporatetaxes, wages dropped to the level of those pre-vailing offshore, and relief from the high costsof employee health care insurances.

Today there is no comprehensive politicaldiscussion about any of these essential basicissues, which are the proper objective of publicpolicy affecting everyone. Until the Obama Ad-ministration begins its due diligence on theseissues dealing with these economic matters,there will be no recovery from this recession.The outcome is already evident: too many lowincome wage earners simply have no work pro-viding incomes which enables them to partic-ipate as American consumers with are-envirgorated vision of their AmericanDream. This stagnant economy needs wholisticattention addressed to its basic foundations.Δ

El 24 de julio a la altura de la 3020 deAlum Rock la comunidad estaba defiesta. Una nueva tienda “Goodwill”

se había inaugurado, estrenando una de las tien-das más concurridas en el Este de San José.

La madrugada del 14 de septiembre un in-cendio de tres alarmas consumió los 15 mil piescuadrados que comprendía esta tienda que con-taba con novedosos ambientes, sistema com-putarizado, servicio de internet gratuito ademásde una zona con ropa exclusiva a precios in-creíbles.

El fuego movilizó a más de 60 bomberosquienes controlaron el incendio pasado las10:40 de la mañana. Según informa el Depar-tamento de Bomberos recibieron una llamadacomo a las 3 de la mañana sobre un incendio.

El fuego arrasó con la tienda y dejó encenizas el almacen y todas las áreas de latienda. Apenas se podía visualizar una prenda

en las esquinas de la tienda que duró exacta-mente un mes y 20 días al servicio de la comu-nidad.

“A penas teníamos inventariado productospor el orden de los $80 mil dólares. Era laquinta tienda más concurrida”, dijo el Presi-dente de Goodwill, Michael Fox.

Fox había comentado a EO que durante elprimer fin de semana la tienda había generado$45 mil dólares en ventas.

La tienda tenía una excelente ubicación quepermitía a las personas de menores ingresoscontar con la posibilidad de adquirir prendas devestir casi nuevas y otras originalmente nuevas.

Futuro de la tiendaNo se sabe si se va a construir en el mismo

local una nueva tienda. Según comenta el Sr.Fox el local tiene que ser inspeccionado y darcon el visto bueno para la apertura de una nuevatienda. “Estamos muy agradecidos con el vecin-dario de Alum Rock y si no se puede levantaralgo en el mismo lugar, lo haremos en otro muy

AVISO DE INTENTO DE ADOPCIONSanta Clara Valley Water District

Noticia de Intento de Adoptar una Declaración

Negativa Mitigada

La ley del estado requiere que ciertos estándares de mantenimiento sean cumplidos para darle seguridad a la presa. De acuerdo con la División de seguridad de Presas. (DSOD por sus siglas en ingles), las principales Presas Caleras y Almaden, actualmente no presentan esos estándares siendo causa de preocupaciones respecto a su mal funcionamiento en lo referente al monitoreo de las instalaciones de filtrado. El Distrito de Agua del Valle de Santa Clara (Distrito) esta proponiendo un proyecto para reparar esas instalaciones en esas dos Presas del Distrito, cumpliendo así con los requerimientos regulatorios para proteger el estatus o condición especial de las especies. Este proyecto incluye zanjas-v de concreto, regradación de las áreas de colección de filtrado, reemplazo de diques, y mantenimiento de la vegetación en las áreas de colección de filtrado. El trabajo podría ser implementado en el otoño del 2009.

Este proyecto intenta dirigir estos asuntos a manera de evitar o mitigar potenciales impactos para proteger las especies. El Distrito de Agua del Valle de Santa Clara (distrito) coordinara este proyecto con las agencias regulatorias apropiadas.

Valle del Agua ha preparado un borrador/estudio inicial sobre la Declaración Negativa Mitigada (IS/MND) para el proyecto propuesto y ha determinado que el proyecto podría no resultar en un significativo impacto ambiental si las medidas especificas de mitigación fueran implementadas. Valle del Agua ha redactado un aviso de intento para adoptar una Declaración Negativa Mitigada para este proyecto para cumplir con al Acta de Calidad Ambiental de California (CEQA, por sus siglas en ingles).

El proyecto propuesto no esta localizado en un sitio que este incluido en la lista enumerada bajo la Sección 65962.5 del código de gobierno. El borrador/estudio IS/MND y toda la información de apoyo están disponibles para revisión en la oficina de distrito citadas arriba. Una copia electrónica de el borrador/estudio IS/MND del anunciado en el sitio de internet de Valle del Agua www.valleywater.org (Clic “CEQA public review documents“ bajo “district quick links” en la paginade internet ). Comentarios escritos pueden ser enviados por correo a Terry Neudorf, Senior Environmental Planner, Santa Clara Valley Water District, 5750 Almaden Expressway, San Jose, CA 95118, o enviados por correo electrónico [email protected] comentarios recibidos para las 5:00 p.m. del día 10 de Octubre del 2009, serán abordados en el reporte final y tomados en consideración para aprobación del Mitigated Negative Declaration final ( MND) o Declaración Negativa Mitigada final.

9/2009_SS


By Osvaldo CastilloEl Observador

The events of September 11, 2001 led manypeople to feel compassion towards othersthroughout the country and the world. People

that would otherwise not want anything to do with oth-ers that were different from them suddenly found them-selves lending a helping had to those in need. Race wasnot an issue.

In April of this year, President Obama signed the Ed-ward M. Kennedy Serve America Act. The bill officiallyrecognized September 11 as a National Day of Serviceand Remembrance. The day is intended to remind indi-viduals that their fate and that of the United States is in-herently tied.

Service projects marking the eight-year anniversaryof 9/11 took place in all 50 states, ranging from fooddrives and home repairs to neighborhood cleanups anddisaster preparation activities. In many areas, volunteershonored veterans, soldiers, or first responders by collect-ing donations, assembling care packages, and writingthank you letters.

In San Jose, Sacred Heart Community Service did itspart to serve the community by creating a new programcalled La Mesa Verde.

The program is a partnership between local busi-

nesses, schools, faith communities, and our low-incomeneighbors and provides all the materials to plant raised-bed, organic gardens in the yards of low-income fami-lies.

“So far today we have built 18 gardens,” said ToddMadigan, director of development and communicationsat Sacred Heart. “We want people be able to grow theirown food so that they could eat it and share it with theirneighbors. Hopefully they will have some left over andshare it with Sacred Heart.”

Over 150 volunteers participated in this program.Many of them were happy with the results. Some saidthe boxes were well designed, while others said the landwas easy to work with. The seeds for these vegetableswill be planted on September 26.

Mayor Chuck Reed praised Sacred Heart for theirwork and said, “There is no better community service or-ganization in San Jose than Sacred Heart.”

Sacred Heart will continue its work and hopes thatmore people will come forward and volunteer for thisproject.

“We hope to have built 100 of these gardens by theend of this year,” stated Madigan.

However, the organization still needs extra equip -ment to complete this task. This equipment includesgloves, drills, hoes, rakes, shovels and a wheelbarrow.

A Time to Serve

Twenty three community leaders areurging San Jose and area cities to re-ject a proposed 25 cent tax or ban on

plastic and/or paper carryout bags. Academic,business, political and taxpayer representativescall the proposal a new shoppers’ tax and arevoicing support for expanded plastic bag recy-cling, public education and increased litterclean-ups.

“We encourage the Santa Clara CountyBoard and other municipalities to support Cal-ifornians new plastic bag recycling law (AB2449) before arbitrarily enacting plastic bag

bans or taxes that will hurt anyone who shopsat any type of store without benefiting the en-vironment,” community leaders stated in theirletter to area officials.

We know from experience that educationand convenient collection points motivate con-sumers to recycle. San Jose’s proposed bag taxpenalizes consumers, does nothing to promoterecycling and won’t reduce litter.

The Hispanic Chamber of Commerce Sili-con Valley also has expressed its opposition tothe new tax or ban on bags.

The healthcare issue has been de-bated at town hall meetingsthroughout the country all sum-

mer long. For the most part, the participantsof these meetings have been loud, rude andobnoxious. They have interrupted elected of-ficials and depicted President Barack Obamaas Hitler.

Fortunately, that was not the case onSunday, September 13, as CongressmanMike Honda (15th District) held a healthcaretown hall meeting at Santa Clara University.

“We have been dealing with this issuefor over 50 years now,” Honda said. “It is timefor this country to make sure that everyonehas some form of health insurance.”

Honda said that he and the membersof Congress will be working on a bill that willdrive the cost of healthcare down and createcompetition. He also said that companieswill not be able to deny coverage to individ-uals due to pre-existing conditions or be-cause they had lost their jobs.

“If this bill passes, people will receivehealth insurance from their companies be-cause it will be against the law not to haveany form of health insurance,” Honda said.

According to Honda’s office, in 2007, 60percent of U.S. bankruptcies that were filedwere a result of high medical costs. In thenext ten years, the number of Americanswithout health insurance will reach 61 mil-lion. Honda’s own district already has 72,000residents without health insurance.

“The U.S. spends twice as much moneyon health insurance as any other industrial-ized nation, but we have worse results,”Honda said. “All we see is a continued rise inpremiums.”

Aside from a few hecklers, the townhall meeting was full of people who be-lieved the public option was necessary. Theyasked Honda what sort of coverage theycould expect to receive and if all the Democ-rats were on board to pass the bill.

Guadalupe Rodriguez, a resident ofHonda Congressional district, asked if thehealthcare package would cover women’sreproductive healthcare.

However, Honda said that is an issuethat is still being discussed.

According the Web site,healthcare.barackobama.com, the health-care plan that is in the works will providemore security and stability to those whohave health insurance. It will provide insur-ance to those who don’t. And it will slow thegrowth of health care costs for families,businesses, and government. It’s a plan thatasks everyone to take responsibility formeeting this challenge - not just govern-ment and insurance companies, but em-ployers and individuals. And it’s a plan thatincorporates ideas from Senators and Con-gressmen, from both Democrats and Repub-licans.

For more information on this bill andhow to contact elected officials visit health-

care.barackobama.com.

Estas festividades se convierten en la celebración más esperada en los EstadosUnidos; el “Mes de la Herencia Hispana” . A esta gran celebración a nivel local se suma el tradicional

Festival del Mariachi.

Este año El Festival del Mariachi honra a los “Héroes de Nuestra Herencia”. En sus años de existencia porprimera vez dedica esta celebración a un gran líder sindical que movilizó a campesinos y que transcendió por sulabor, esfuerzo y sacrificio. Nos referimos a César Chávez.

En este festival se exhibirá desde una película y por primera vez se hará un taller especial de comida de-nominado “Comida para el Corazón y el Alma”. En este taller se enseña a la comunidad cómo consumir comidamexicana de manera saludable. Una contribución muy importante dentro del festival.

Héctor Gómez pisó en noviembre de 1988 el suelo estadounidense para presenciar un partidode fútbol americano. Pero jamás imaginó quedarse toda su vida en este país. Por esassituaciones de oportunidad que pocas se presentan en la vida llegó en un momento en

que el país estaba atravesando por el proceso de amnistía, permitiendo a miles de indocumentadoslegalizarse.

Gomez se las jugó del todo por el todo y como todos llegó con unos cuantos centavos en el bolsillo.A este intrépido hombre natural de Autlán de Navarro, Jalisco, México la suerte le acompañó. Durantesu visista a la ciudad de Glendale, CA,apostó en una carrera de caballos y apostó por el menos favoritoy ¿qué creen?, ganó la apuesta y por su puesto el dinero.

“Con ese dinero decidí tramitar mis documentos y así logré arreglar mi estadía en muy cortotiempo”.

Pero algunos dirán, que suerte la de este hombre así cualquiera llega lejos. Gómez regularizó susdocumentos pero sabía muy poco de ingles y eso era básico para poder trabajar, sobrevivir y triunfarsi uno desea.

Así que su primer trabajo fue en la cadena de restaurantes Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC). Paracocinar no se tenía que hablar, así que aprendió a preparar los pollos más deliciciosos, acompañadosde sus papitas doradas y ensaladas.

Gómez no entendía casi nada a sus compañeros de trabajo, a veces tenía que leerle los labiospara entenderles un poco. Pero también tenía amigos que escuchaban los Bukis y hablaban todo eltiempo español y él no quiso seguir sus pasos.

A Gómez le interesaba aprender más, porque la única manera de salir adelante era aprendiendoingles. No se pudo comprar un popular programa de ingles muy promocionado en ese entonces. “Con-seguí un CD y texto de $10 porque no podía pagar más. También escuchaba música y radio en inglesla única manera de aprender”, recuerda con orgullo el hombre mexicano.

Al final de su turno de trabajo se le presentó la oportunidad de limpiar el restaurante. “Lo hicepara ganar horas extras”, luego fue encargado de contar el dinero al final del día y finalmente comenzóa hacer inventario.

En corto tiempo y producto de su gran esfuerzo se hizo asistente del administrador y en dosmeses se convirtió en administrador.

El joven trabajó de local en local, administró sucursales en San Ramón, Dublin, Walnut Creek,Newark, Hayward, Modesto. Lo cierto es que el local que administraba elevaba increiblemente lasventas. Fue tan exitoso su trabajo que hizo de una tienda de Oakland como la número UNO luegoque ésta andaba descuidada.

Gómez fue ganador de importantes reconocimientos anivel corporativo. Los éxitos llegaron unos tras otros, perono de la noche a la mañana. Esto significó muchas horasfuera de casa . “Siempre quise superarme, si te piden trescosas recuerda que puedes hacer cuatro”, dice este per-sonaje ejemplar.

En los últimos 10 años, el hombre de Jalisco fueacumulando éxito tras éxito. Desde hace dos años ymedio fue nombrado Director Regional de KFC quesurpervisa a cuatro estados que son: Utah, Washington,Colorado y California.

Gómez es el único latino entre la Mesa Direc-tiva de la Corporación y toma grandes de-cisiones para el futuro de esta cadenade restaurantes.

Gómez se sigue levantandomuy temprano para atender aconferencias telefónicas e in-cluso cuenta que el año pasadose la pasó 212 días en el avión.El actual Director Regional nosabía que iba a llegar tanlejos. “Algo si sabía que no ibaa hacer, era limpiar casas”.

Esto es un ejemplo desuperación de miles de inmi-grantes que empiezan desdeabajo y alcanzan posicionesejecutivas donde estamosorgullosos de compartir.

“Los latinos podemosser los mejores arquitectos,doctores porque somos exce-lentes trabajadores, hay queser mejor que los demás y claroque podemos”, concluye Héctor.

¡Héctor gracias por compartirtu historia y gracias por represen-tarnos a los latinos en tus deci-siones ejecutivas!.

September 11, 2009, marked the 8th year sincethe country came together as a nation after fac-ing the loss of the Twin Towers and the lives of

many innocent people. The Fire Department of San Josecame together with community members to rememberthose who served and gave their lives. A flag held togetherby two fire trucks waved in the air as different people wentto the podium to shared personal stories. A feeling ofmourning was present, but dealt with in a noble manner.A wreath was placed next to the bell at San Jose’s first firestation and after, the bell rung to commemorate thefallen fire fighters of 9/11. It is clear that that day changedthe nation, and we will continue to remember.

With all the stress of work (or lackthere off) and other everyday lifecircumstances, it has become very

difficult for many Americans to stay fit andhealthy. Obesity rates have hit 63 percent and thediabetes rates continue to climb.

These unhealthy statistics are the drivingforce behind the 5th Annual Healthy Children’sDay. The event was held on Saturday, September12, at the Children’s Discovery Museum of SanJose and was put together by Assembly memberJoe Coto, 23rd Assembly District. Coto’s officeeven gave out free admission to up five familymembers.

“We want to educate parents and their chil-dren about the importance of staying healthy byeating right and by exercising,” said LorraineGuerin, District Director for AssemblymemberCoto. “We want the children to learn while theyare still young and to pledge to stay healthy.”

The children also learned about the impor-

tance of good hygiene from Kaiser Permanente,one of the many agencies involved in the event.

“Kaiser is here to show the children how toproperly take care of themselves.” Guerin said.“They also told them about the importance ofgetting the proper amount of sleep.”

Other agencies that were involved with theevent include: Mt. Diablo Dental Health Society,Sports Basement, Children’s Health Initiative,Partnership for Prescription Assistance, BeverlyBurbank Lions and VSP Vision.

“All these agencies provide the children withdifferent ways to take care of themselves,”Guerin said. “VSP Vision is giving the childrenfree vision test and the Children’s Dental Clinicis giving out free toothbrushes, dental floss andtoothpaste.”

Most children like to drink soda and othersweet drinks. Rethink Your Drink was there toprovide information on drink alternatives.

“It is important for children to know thatthere are other drinks other than soda out there,”Guerin said.

Author Kymberli Brady was also at the event to autograph her book The Sleepy Little Star.Despite having several agencies volunteer

their time for this event, Guerin said that it wasnot difficult at all to get everyone on board forthe event.

“Everyone was very excited and wanted todo their part in making sure this event was suc-

cessful,” Guerin said. “In fact, next year we willhave ambulance workers at the event.”

Guerin also said that the event also gets big-ger every year.

“Next year we will have even more agenciesparticipate in this event,”

A Healthy Start

Por Mario Jiménez CastilloEl Observador

El rol primordial que ejercen los sueñoses hacernos discernir lo que nossucede y lo que ocurre a nuestro

alrededor, por medio de la analogía que estable-cen entre nuestra conducta habitual y los valoresque conforman nuestros ideales. Los sueños soncapaces de señalar nuestros deseos más íntimos,revelan nuestras necesidades físicas, nos ayudana tomar decisiones y nos permiten disfrutar unaexistencia más creativa.

Cuando nos fijamos metas bien establecidasy luchamos arduamente para alcanzarlas, lossueños suelen aclarar, orientar y hasta dirigirnuestros pasos. Llegar a obtener provecho delmensaje de nuestros sueños es equivalente aentablar una relación con un consejero. Una per-sona que conoce todo sobre nosotros y que estará

siempre con la mejor disposición para atender yescuchar nuestros dilemas y preocupaciones. Lamayor parte del tiempo, nuestro consejero se limitará a escucharnos; y en muchas ocasiones, estoserá suficiente para hacer fluir las respuestas quese hallaban sin ser descubiertas en nuestro propiointerior.

Consejos útiles para interpretar sussueños

Utilice un cuaderno que use exclusivamentepara anotar sus sueños.

Trate de anotar sus sueños todos los días. Noimporta si lo único que recordó son detalles mín-imos. Con la práctica diaria logrará memorizar-los de manera más amplia.

Tenga en cuenta que sus sentimientos, valores e impresiones son primordiales para quellegue a analizar un sueño de forma efectiva. Lamayoría de personajes que observe en sus sueños

suelen corresponder a los diversos aspectos de supropia personalidad.

Muchas veces los sueños serán el reflejo desu estado anímico. Si atraviesa por problemas ydificultades, es muy probable que tenga sueñossombríos.

Recuerde que los sueños con mayor signifi-cado son aquellos que al experimentarlos y recor-darlos le provocan sentimientos y emocionesfuertes.

Compare sus pensamientos, sentimientos y

forma de reaccionar con las expresiones y cir-cunstancias que se presenten durante sus sueños.

Las claves para llegar a descifrar sus sueñosperiódicamente de manera eficaz son la prácticay la perseverancia.
