SOUTHERN COLORADO'S BILINGUAL NEWSPAPER SINCE 1987
VOL. 19 NO. 26

Joseph Garcia named new president
of CSU-Pueblo
Chancellor Larry Edward
Penley and the Board of
Governors of the Colorado
State University System has
announced that Joseph Garcia,
a Harvard-trained lawyer with
extensive public service in
southern Colorado, will be the
new president of Colorado
State University-Pueblo.
Garcia has served as
president of Pikes Peak
Community College since
2001.
“Joe has been a strong leader
in Colorado higher education
and in the business world,”
said Patrick Grant, chairman of
the Board of Governors.
“His diverse professional
background as an attorney,
community college president
and federal housing official
makes him ideal to confront
the challenges that face higher
education in Colorado.”
Throughout the search
process, Garcia received strong
support from campus and
community leaders, as well as
the Search Committee. He is
expected to begin his new
position before fall term
begins.
“CSU-Pueblo plays a critical
role for the State of Colorado
with excellent learning
opportunities for students and

LULAC elects new
president Rosa Rosales
The League of United Latin
American Citizens (LULAC) has
elected Rosa Rosales as its new
LULAC National President.
Rosales received over 70% of the
vote by the delegates, and is the
second woman to win office in
LULAC’s 77-year history.
“I am elated at being elected
the new President of LULAC
and I am ready to work with all
groups to take LULAC to the
next level of activism. I want to
thank LULAC and all the past
Presidents for all the work they
have done. I want to thank all
of the volunteers because that is
what LULAC is all about. What
makes LULAC so special is
because not only do the
volunteers work for free but pay
dues,” said Rosales.

COMMUNITY NEWS CHEN/LAEF scholarship recipients
Better Business Bureau
reaches 3,000 members
The Better Business Bureau
of Southern Colorado has
reached three thousand
members, a milestone in its 25
year history.
While this number includes
companies with more than one
location in our service area, it
represents an all time high for
the Bureau.
According to Carol Odell,
CEO, membership has been
steadily increasing over the
past four years.
The majority of members in
the BBB of SC are companies
located in the Pikes Peak
region, but an increasing
number are joining from other
areas of Southern Colorado.
In these challenging
economic times, the BBB of SC
has been able to achieve a
market penetration of almost
eleven percent, as compared to
other Bureaus in the country
who average 6 percent.
“It’s just good business.”
CHEN/LAEF scholarship recipients received their awards at the ceremony on June 14, 2006.

Marian House capital
exceeds 63% of the base
goal of $4 million
Contributions for the New
Marian House have already
passed the 60% mark of the
base fundraising goal. “We
have absolutely no doubt we
will raise the base goal of $4
million dollars, which is what
is needed to build the New
Marian House” said Rochelle
Schlortt, Community Relations
Coordinator for Catholic
Charities Colorado Springs.
“Once we reach the $3.5
million mark, we can begin to
initiate the construction
process. The next step will be
to raise an additional $1.8
million for the renovation of
the existing building for
expanded human services. The
entire complex will cost $5.8
million. With the contribution
from Focus on the Family at the
press conference of $100,000
and
donations
from
individuals and foundations
received since, campaign
contributions have jumped
over $780,000 from $1.745
million to $2.525 million.
The majority of the new
funds came from a challenge
grant from the Gates Family
Foundation for $480,000. This
challenge grant is contingent
upon raising the total project
cost.”
This is a tremendous
accomplishment as it now
opens the door for contacting
more
foundations
and
applying for more grants. Most
foundations don’t want
applications until a campaign
has reached the 50% mark of
needed funds. “The response
has been incredible”, said
Rochelle Schlortt. “The day
after the press conference, my
phone was ringing off the
hook. One person stopped by
the office and just handed the
receptionist an envelope with
$1,000 in it. No name or
anything on it. The person just
said they had seen the news
broadcast and wanted to help.
The generosity and response
has been unbelievable!”
“In the long history of
Colorado Springs, the need to
help hungry people in our
community has never been
greater,” said Tom Corsentino,
Director of the Marian House.
“We are currently serving an
average of 400 - 450 people a
day in a dining room that seats
only 68 people. And that
number
has
increased
significantly this summer as a
result of children being out of
school. The family dining room
has been a very crowded
place.”
Every day, seven days a
week, 365 days a year, between
the hours of 10:30 am and 1
pm, Mon –
Sat and 8:45 – 10 am Sun, the
Marian House serves a hot
meal at no charge to anyone
who is hungry. They also
provide free medical exams
through the SET Clinic, job
counseling, case
management and many other
outreach services to help
people move towards greater
self-sufficiency.
“Only 35 to 40% of our guests
are homeless,” said Tom
Corsentino. “Most are the
working poor,
single mothers with children,
retired veterans who are barely
getting by and elderly people
on fixed incomes. The free
meals and other services
provided by the Marian House
make it possible for many of
these people to keep their
homes, because it allows them
to keep their money for rent,
utilities and other basic needs.
Otherwise, they would be
living on our streets.”
“Most important of all,” said
Bob Diekmann, Marian House
Operations Manager and
Campaign Director for the
Capital Campaign, “we’ll be
able to serve people in need in
this community and do so in a
way that treats them with
greater dignity.
Many people only need the
Marian House temporarily.
And this is the only place in
Colorado Springs that serves
the hungry with a mid-day
meal, 7 days a week, 365 days
a year.”

A Great Day For our Community
Joseph Garcia was named President of Colorado State University Pueblo
last Week. After the agency narrowed the most qualified candidates to a
field of four, we feel the proper selection was made.
It was interesting to observe the dynamics as they occurred. Many who
are active in the Pikes Peak region have become aware of Joe Garcia and
all that he does in the community. One of the Challenges of the application process was to
assure Pueblo that he served the best interests of Southern Colorado.
One of the immediate questions that came up was, that he did not come from an academic
background. As an Harvard law graduate, Garcia had worked in law, was the Rocky
Mountain State representative for the US Department of Housing & Urban Development
and as served as Executive Director of the Colorado Department of Regulatory Agencies.
In 2001, he became President of Pikes Peak Community College; and any one connected
to PPCC will share their feelings of great loss for the departure of their President.
I was amused how some publications seemed to downplay the CSU-Pueblo
President position as a Pueblo “gig.”
CSU-Pueblo, much like the entire Pueblo community, is in a state of rapid growth, and
Mr. Garcia can provide leadership. It is incumbent upon all of us, not to leave him on an
island. We must contribute to the success of CSU-Pueblo, Pueblo and Southern Colorado.

Las bebidas que pueden
arruinar su dieta
¿Piensa que tiene su dieta bajo
control? Sin saberlo, puede
estar bebiendo cientos de
calorías
indeseadas.
“Aunque no lo crea, más de
un 20 por ciento de las calorías
diarias vienen de las bebidas
que bebemos” dice Susan
Aaronson,
MS,
RD,
coordinadora de Bienestar de la
División de Fomento de la
Salud M-Fit del Sistema de
Salud de la Universidad de
Michigan. “De hecho, la
Organización Mundial de la
Salud, recomienda que la gente
consuma sólo un 10 por ciento
de las calorías en líquidos. Por
lo tanto, esas calorías
adicionales
de
bebidas
contribuyen a la epidemia de
obesidad de Estados Unidos,
hacienda más difícil aún perder
peso”.
Según el Sondeo y Examen
Nacional de Salud y Nutrición,
alrededor de 136.5 millones de
estadounidenses
tienen
sobrepeso. De ellos, alrededor
de 64 millones son obesos.
Para millones de
estadounidenses que intentan
perder peso excesivo, la
solución puede estar no en lo
que comen, pero en lo que
beben, dice Aaronson. La
especialista ofrece los
siguientes consejos para
ayudarle a elegir bebidas
saludables entre las gaseosas,
las isotónicas, zumos de fruta
y la leche.
Gaseosas
“Las bebidas gaseosas están
llenas de azúcar y calorías
vacías, lo que las convierte en
uno de los factores más
importantes que contribuyen
al problema de la obesidad en
Estados
Unidos”
dice
Aaronson. “Si usted elige
eliminar una lata de gaseosa
por día, que contiene
alrededor
de
nueve
cucharadas de té de azúcar,
puede perder una libra por
mes; en un año puede perder
hasta 15 libras”.
Además porque no tienen
ningún valor nutritivo,
llenarse con gaseosas previene
la obtención de calorías de
fuentes
que
contienen
vitaminas
y
minerales
esenciales. Ahora, si usted no
puede vivir sin gaseosas,
Aaronson recomienda beber
gaseosas de dieta, o dejarlas
sólo para ocasiones especiales.
Jugos de Frutas y Vegetales
¿Bebe usted zumos de fruta
u otra bebida descrita en la
etiqueta como “bebida de
fruta”? La diferencia puede
resultar en calorías adicionales
y pocos nutrientes, dice
Aaronson.
“Lea la etiqueta
cuidadosamente” advierte
Aaronson. “Si la etiqueta que
fue “hecho con jugo de fruta
auténtico”, puede incluir
menos de un 10 por ciento de
jugo “real” y alrededor de siete
cucharadas de té de azúcar”.
Las mejores bebidas de zumos
son las que llevan una etiqueta
que dice que contienen un ‘100
por ciento de zumo”.
Los padres deben ser
especialmente cuidadosos
sobre cuantas cajas de jugos le
permiten tomar diariamente a
sus hijos. Sólo una caja
individual de zumo contiene
100 calorías, y cuatro de ellas
son un cuarto del total de
calorías diarias que debe
consumir un niño.
Aaronson recomienda
limitarse a una porción, o
cinco onzas de zumo al día. El
resto de sus porciones de
frutas y vegetales diarios
deben venir de venir de
porciones de frutas y
vegetales verdaderos. Frutas y
vegetales reales contienen la
fibra necesaria para su
organismo, que no se
encuentra en los jugos de
fruta.
Leche
Elegir leche de bajas calorías
le puede ayudar a reducir
cientos de calorías al día.
La leche también contiene
nutrientes fundamentales
como calcio, proteína,
vitamina D y vitamina A que
no encontrará en otras
bebidas.
Además
se
recomienda que consuma tres
porciones de productos
lácteos por día.
Para aprovechar lo mejor de
la
leche,
Aaronson
recomienda elegir leche con 1
por ciento un 1/2 por ciento
de grasa o leche enteramente
descremada. Con estas
opciones el cuerpo recibe los
nutrientes que necesita sin las
calorías y la grasa adicionales.
Bebidas Isotónicas (utilizadas en
Deportes) y Energéticas
A pesar de que las bebidas
Isotónicas vuelven a llenar el
organismo con electrolitos
para ayudarle a retener
líquido
y
permanecer
hidratado, aún contienen
muchísimas calorías, la mitad
o un tercio del azúcar que que
tienen las bebidas gaseosas.
“Las bebidas deportivas
fueron desarrolladas para
atletas de resistencia”, explica
Aaronson. “Si programa
ejercitarse continuadamente,
más de una hora, las bebidas
deportivas son para usted”.
Además no encontrará
demasiado valor nutritivo en
las bebidas energéticas,
advierte Aaronson.
“Las bebidas para la energía
no solo están colmadas de
calorías, pero le darán un
rápido
levantamiento,
seguido después de un
descenso-descenso extremo”,
explica Aaronson.
Alcohol
Si usted ha programado una
velada con cena y bebidas
alcohólicas, recuerde que puede
tener el equivalente a toda una
comida solo con bebidas, antes
de haber empezado a comer.
Un vaso promedio de vino
tiene alrededor de 100 calorías
y una cerveza de 12 oz.
Contiene aproximadamente 150
calorías.
Según Aaronson, no es raro
que un trago mixto tenga
alrededor de 300 calorías y
tragos como los daiquiris tienen
500 o más calorías cada uno. Por
lo tanto, limitar el número de
tragos consumidos antes de la
cena va a contribuir con una
diferencia fundamental a su
línea.
Agua
Entonces, ¿cuál es la bebida
ideal para calmar la sed? : Es
incolora, inodora, no tiene
sabor, es refrescante y
constituye más de la mitad de
la masa del cuerpo: El agua.
“Agua es la única bebida más
importante que podemos
consumir”, dice Aaronson.
“Una persona puede consumir
solamente agua y estar bien,
mientras complemente su dieta
con fuentes de comida que
contengan calcio y otros
nutrientes que se pueden
encontrar en bebidas como
leche y jugo”.
En general, un 80 por ciento
de las calorías líquidas deben
venir del agua, dependiendo
del peso de la persona y de la
manera en que viven. Esto
quiere decir que un adulto
promedio debe tomar entre 4 a
6 tazas de agua al día, que
deben ser complementadas con
leche y zumo, hecho con un 100
por ciento de fruta para lograr
los requisitos totales de líquidos
diarios.
Otra opción es beber agua
fortificada con vitaminas. Sin
embargo Aaronson advierte que
si se come una dieta sana no hay
razón para beber vitaminas en
forma líquida.
La conclusión: “La próxima
vez que usted piense en excavar
en la heladera para buscar una
gaseosa, ahorre el dinero y las
calorías y busque el grifo de
agua”, dice Aaronson.

Jeff Thomas has been named

SOUTHERN COLORADO'S BILINGUAL NEWSPAPER SINCE 1987

Joseph Garcia named new president
of CSU-Pueblo
Chancellor Larry Edward
Penley and the Board of
Governors of the Colorado
State University System has
announced that Joseph Garcia,
a Harvard-trained lawyer with
extensive public service in
southern Colorado, will be the
new president of Colorado
State University-Pueblo.
Garcia has served as
Community College since
2001.
“Joe has been a strong leader
in Colorado higher education
and in the business world,”
said Patrick Grant, chairman of
the Board of Governors.
“His diverse professional
background as an attorney,
community college president
and federal housing official
makes him ideal to confront
the challenges that face higher
education in Colorado.”
Throughout the search
process, Garcia received strong
support from campus and
community leaders, as well as
the Search Committee. He is
expected to begin his new
position before fall term
begins.

TRICARE enhances maternity ultrasound benefit
TRICARE Management
Activity (TMA) recently
changed the maternity
ultrasound policy, making
ultrasounds easier to obtain
when medically necessary.
Ultrasounds for medical
necessity have always been
part of TRICARE’s maternity
benefit; however, they were
formerly covered as a service
within the global fee for
prenatal care and delivery
services.
According to Army Col. (Dr.)
John Kugler of the TRICARE
Office of the Chief Medical
Officer, “Because an obstetric
ultrasound is not a simple
procedure, and may be an
involved process, as of April 4,
2006, we changed the policy to
have
TRICARE
cover
medically necessary maternity
ultrasounds separate from the
global delivery fee.”
Doctors often perform
medically necessary maternity
ultrasounds at different times
during pregnancy. According
to Kugler, “If an obstetric
provider has reason for
concern, TRICARE will cover
the ultrasound.”
Specific conditions for which
TRICARE will cover an
ultrasound include the
following:
• Estimating gestational age
• Evaluating fetal growth
• Conducting a biophysical
evaluation for fetal well-being
• Evaluating a suspected
ectopic pregnancy
• Defining the cause of vaginal
bleeding
• Diagnosing or evaluating
multiple gestations
• Confirming cardiac activity
• Evaluating maternal pelvic
masses
or
uterine
abnormalities
•
Evaluating suspected
hydatidiform mole
• Evaluating the fetus’s
condition in late registrants for
prenatal care
The enhanced ultrasound
benefit also helps TRICARE
beneficiaries and providers
develop stronger partnerships
as they discuss when it is
appropriate to perform an
ultrasound to ensure the best
outcome.
This benefit enhancement
gives uniformed services
families greater peace of mind
during what can be an
emotional time.
TRICARE is committed to
offering world-class maternity
care to world-class service
members.

Ruining your diet Cont. from page 18
limiting yourself to one
serving, or five ounces, of juice
a day. The rest of your daily
servings of fruits and
vegetables should come from
actual pieces of fruits and
vegetables. Real fruits and
vegetables contain the daily
fiber your body needs that you
won’t find in fruit drinks.
Milk
Choosing low-fat milks can
help you save hundreds of
calories each day, says
Aaronson. Milk also contains
vital nutrients like calcium,
protein, vitamin D, and
vitamin A that you won’t find
in other beverages. Plus, it is
recommended that you get
three servings of dairy every
day.
To get the most from your
milk, Aaronson says to choose
1 percent, 1/2 percent, or skim
milk. With these options, you
will still get all the nutrients
your body needs but without
the extra calories and fat.
Sports drinks and energy drinks
Although sports drinks
replenish your body with
electrolytes that help you
retain water and stay hydrated,
they still contain a lot of
calories—one-half to one-third
the amount of sugar you’ll find
in soda.
“Sports drinks were actually
developed for endurance
athletes,” explains Aaronson.
“So if you plan to exercise for
more than one continuous
hour, then sports drinks are for
you.”
And you won’t find a lot of
nutritional value in energy
drinks, either, notes Aaronson.
“Energy drinks are not only
loaded with calories, but
they’ll give you a quick high,
followed by an extremely-low
low afterward,” explains
Aaronson.
Alcohol
If you are planning an
evening of dinner and drinks,
remember that you could have
the calorie-equivalent to a
whole meal in drinks only,
before you’ve eaten anything
at all.
The average glass of wine has
about 100 calories and a 12 oz.
beer contains approximately
150
calories.
According to Aaronson, it’s
not uncommon for a mixed
drink to have about 300
calories and the decadent
frozen drinks like daiquiris to
have 500 or more calories each.
So limiting the number and
types of drinks you have before
eating will make a major
difference for your waistline.
Water
So what is the ideal beverage
to quench your thirst? It’s the
colorless, odorless, and
tasteless refresher that makes
up over half of our body mass:
Water.
“Water is the single most
important beverage that we
can consume,” says Aaronson.
“A person could drink only
water and be just fine, as long
as he supplements his diet with
food sources that contain
calcium and other nutrients
that one may find in other
beverages such as milk and
juice.”

parties may visit TRICARE’s

Se Habla Español
In general, 80 percent of a
person’s liquid calories should
come from water depending
on their height, weight, and
where they live. That means
the average adult should drink
between 4 and 6 cups of water
a day, which should be
supplemented with milk and
100 percent juice to meet total
daily liquid requirements.
Another option is flavored
water that is fortified with
vitamins. But Aaronson says if
you’re already eating a healthy
diet, there’s no reason to drink
vitamins in the form of water.
The bottom line:
“The next time you think about
digging into the fridge for a
soda, save yourself the money
and the calories and reach for
the tap instead,” says
Aaronson.

Top-of-Class Standard Safety
Equipment
Already a leader in vehicle
safety as demonstrated by
Honda’s “Safety for Everyone”
initiative, Honda continues to
implement leading airbag
technology in all vehicles
regardless of size or price. The
Fit has the most standard safety
features in its class with no
other subcompact offering as
much standard advanced
safety technology. Dual-stage,
dual-threshold front airbags,
dual front side airbags and
side-curtain airbags are
standard equipment on all Fit
models. All seating positions
have three-point seat belts,
while front occupants are
further protected by pre-
tensioning seat belts. An
enhanced
knee
bolster
provides additional protection
for passengers. Standard
active safety equipment
includes anti-lock braking
system (ABS) with ventilated
discs in the front and drums in
the back, and electronic brake
distribution (EBD).

Honda Genuine Accessories,

allowing owners to personalize
their Fits inside and out. “The
2007 Fit provides a new entry
point into Honda for
consumers considering an
attractive and efficient small
car,” said John Mendel, senior
vice president of American
Honda.
“The large interior adapts to
people or cargo like no other
car in its class. It comes
standard-equipped
with
advanced safety technology,
and follows in the tradition of
Honda’s
fun-to-drive
performance.”
Unprecedented Subcompact
Seating and Cargo Flexibility
Dimensionally compact on the
outside, the interior provides a
surprisingly large passenger
and cargo space for both
maximum comfort and utility.
At the foundation is the Fit’s
Magic Seat(TM), an innovative
60/40 split rear seat that allows
the seatbacks to fold down or
the seat bottoms to flip up,
providing four distinct seating
and
cargo
carrying
configurations (refresh mode,
tall object mode, long object
mode and utility mode) in
addition to the standard five
passenger mode.
With all seats in the upright
position, passenger volume
measures 90.1 cubic feet
(slightly less than an Accord’s
passenger volume) with 21.3
cubic feet of cargo capacity
behind the second row (slightly
less than an Element’s cargo
volume behind the second
row). In order to help maximize
Fit’s useable interior space,
Honda located the fuel tank in
a central location towards the
middle of the vehicle.
This allows the cargo floor in
the rear of Fit to be relatively
low, thus increasing the interior
volume.
Fun to Drive...Past the Pump
The 1.5-liter, SOHC, 16-valve,
4-cylinder VTEC engine
generates 109 horsepower @
5800 rpm and 105 foot-pounds
of torque @ 4800 rpm. The
compact
and
efficient
powerplant features Honda’s
innovative Variable Valve
Timing and Lift Electronic
Control (VTEC(TM)).The
VTEC system’s ability to
provide highly efficient
operation at low engine speeds
and extended performance at
high engine speeds benefits
fuel economy, power and low
emissions.
Refinement is further
enhanced with electronic
Drive-by-Wire throttle control,
which provides quick throttle
response, smooth automatic
transmission shifts (on
automatic
transmission
models) and precise fuel
delivery to the engine. Friction
reducing technologies include
roller bearing tipped rocker
arms, a low friction timing
chain tensioner, molydebenum
coated piston skirts and an
offset crankshaft/connecting
rod design. The suspension set
up for the Fit is a combination
of a front MacPherson strut/
rear torsion beam with trailing
arm.
The compact front suspension
and rear torsion beam were
both designed to allow for a
large passenger cabin with a
low floor to maximize the cargo
carrying capacity. Fit employs
a compact, efficient and highly
responsive Electric Power
Steering (EPS) system that also
contributes to higher fuel
economy since engine power is
not needed to operate a
hydraulic system. The wheel
size measures 14-inches with
P175/65R14 tires, and 16-inch
wheels with P205/45R16 are
available as a dealer-installed
option.
Estimated city/
highway fuel economy ratings
of 33/38 miles per gallon is
expected to be among the
highest ratings in the
subcompact 5-door hatchback
class. Emissions levels are rated
as Low Emissions Vehicle 2
(LEV-2) by the California Air
Resources Board (CARB) and
Tier 2 / Bin 5 by the Federal
government.

LITERATURE
Dynamic Energetic
Healing®
by Howard Brockman
This book describes the
synthesis of three different
psychotherapy and healing
models
that
combine
seamlessly into what a
colleague and I have
developed
and
named
Dynamic Energetic Healing®.
These three models include
process-oriented psychology,
as taught by Dr. Arnold
Mindell,
PhD;
core
shamanism, as taught by Dr.
Michael Harner, PhD; and
energy psychology strategies.
Process oriented psychology or
processwork, as it is also
known, continues to inform
my clinical practice more than
anything else I have learned.
I began my study of core
shamanism 24-years ago and
continue to pursue training in
advanced shamanic healing
techniques.
Energy
psychology methodologies are
my most recent addition,
having spent the last seven
years training, interacting and
practicing from a variety of
energy psychology educators.
Additionally, the disciplines of
clinical hypnosis and manual
muscle testing (from the field
of applied kinesiology) are also
incorporated. The content of
this book describes the
essential underlying operative
principles of each of these
models and how they are
woven together as a whole.
The format of the book
consists of four primary
sections. The first section
describes by personal journey
and is written from a first
person perspective. I describe
the various spiritual and
energetic practices I have
undertaken and how each
contributes to my current
clinical practice.
The second section of the
book includes the theory and
conceptual underpinnings of
Dynamic Energetic Healing®.
This includes the energetic
origins protocol explaining in
detail how all the pieces fit
together in application, as well
as descriptions of various
interventions and how they
can be utilized by the reader.
The third section of the book
describes many clinical case
histories taken from my own
private practice that richly
illustrate the remarkable
successes that result from the
application of Dynamic
Energetic Healing®.
The fourth and final section
c o n t a i n s
concluding
chapters
that
address internal
reference point
orientations,
paradigm shifts
that become part
of the learning
process and two
appendixes
which include by
concernes about
t
h
e
pharmacological
model and its
increasing
utilization
in
treating mood
disorders.
What tends to
be glossed over
and essentially
ignored in both
the popular selfhelp books as
well
as
the
spiritual “New
Age” books is
how damaging
and pervasive the
long-lasting
effects
of
persistant trauma
can be. Being
exhorted to think
positive thoughts
and
start
a
meditation
practice will not
be sufficient to
restore wholeness
to the person who
has suffered the
fragmentation
that occurs as a result of trauma. What I know to be
true is that trauma with its
devastating long-lasting effects
is the most underemphasized
aspect
of
Western
psychotherapy in spite of the
few pioneers who are
confronting it.
Through Dynamic Energetic
Healing® strategies, I have
been able to determine that the
entire network of a trauma
pattern, made up of many
single incident traumas over a
period
of
time,
can
methodically be cleared of all
the interrelated symptomatic
trauma phenomena.
Statistics continue to bear out
ever-increasing numbers of
Americans who are being
prescribed pharmaceutical
drugs to deal with their
depression and anxiety.
We are quickly becoming a
culture of drugged and
chemicalized people.
What is inferred from this
but rarely articulated is the
limited ability of many
licensed
healthcare
professionals to successfully
resolve emotional trauma, and
the shocking lack of awareness
of the varying and persistant
effects of trauma that are still
largely not sufficiently
recognized and appreciated by
these same mental health
professionals.

MSW, LCSW has more than 24
years of clinical experience as

LITERATURE
Desert Blood wins Lambda Award
The Lambda Literary
Foundation has bestowed its
annual award for Best Lesbian
Mystery to Alicia Gaspar de
Alba’s Desert Blood: The Juárez
Murders.
The Lambda Literary
Awards were presented on
May 18 at the Equality Forum
at the Human Rights
Campaign in Washington, DC
during BookExpo America.
The
Lambda
Literary
Foundation is the country’s
leading organization for LGBT
literature whose mission is to
celebrate LGBT literature and
provide resources for writers,
readers,
booksellers,
publishers, and librarians - the
whole literary community.
Alicia Gaspar de Alba’s
novel, Desert Blood: The Juárez
Murders, opens in the summer
of 1998. For five years over a
hundred
mangled
and
desecrated bodies have been
found dumped on the
Chihuahua desert outside of
Juárez, México, just across the
river from El Paso, Texas. El
Paso native Ivon Villa has
returned to her hometown to
adopt the baby of Cecilia, a
pregnant maquiladora worker
in Juárez. When Cecilia turns
up
strangled
and
disemboweled in the desert
and Ivon’s younger sister is
kidnapped in Juárez, Ivon is
thrown into the churning
chaos of abuse and murder.
Despite sharp warnings from
family, friends, and nervous
officials, Ivon’s investigation
moves her deeper and deeper
into the labyrinth of silence.
Desert Blood: The Juárez
Murders has garnered critics’
praise. In a starred review,
Library Journal said, “Offering
a powerful depiction of social
justice and serial murder...this
is an essential purchase for
both mystery and Hispanic
fiction collections.” And
Booklist proclaimed “Gaspar de
Alba not only crafts a
suspenseful plot but tackles
prejudice in many of its ugly
forms: against gays, against
Hispanics, against the poor.
An in-your-face, no-holdsbarred story full of brutality,
graphic
violence,
and
ultimately, redemption.”
Alicia Gaspar de Alba is the
author of various works of
poetry, fiction, and nonfiction,
among them a collection of
poems and essays, La
Llorona on the Longfellow
Bridge: Poetry y Otras
Movidas (Arte Público
Press, 2003), and a historical
novel Sor Juana’s Second Dream
(University of New Mexico
Press, 1999). She is also the
editor of Velvet Barrios: Popular

(Palgrave/ Macmillan, 2003).
An Associate Professor of

The USAA Foundation contributes
$29K to provide Child Safety Seats
Statistics compiled by Safe
Kids USA show that in 2004,
1,638 children under the age of
14 died in motor vehicle
crashes.
More than 50 percent of
these
children
were
unrestrained. Also, according
to Safe Kids, during that same
year, 451 lives were saved
through the proper use of child
restraints.
Responding to this concern,
The USAA Foundation has
contributed $29,000 to Peak
Vista Community Health
Centers and Memorial Health
System to provide child safety
seats to local families in need.
“The USAA Foundation
continues to be an outstanding
community partner,” said BJ
Scott, CEO of Peak Vista
Community Health Centers.
“This contribution, which will
go a long way in helping us
provide child safety seats to
families in need, illustrates the
USAA
Foundation’s
commitment to making a
difference in the lives of the
people we serve.”
“We are grateful for The
USAA
Foundation’s
outstanding and generous
support to our community and
to our respective health
facilities,” said Dick Eitel, CEO
of Memorial Health System.
“The USAA Foundation’s
contribution last year to
Memorial has enabled us to
distribute 370 infant, toddler
and booster seats.”
“We are devastated when we
see a child with serious or fatal
injuries that could have been
prevented had they been
properly restrained in a car
seat,” says Ken Pippus, MD,
medical director of pediatric
trauma at Memorial Hospital
for Children.
Safety experts remind
parents to replace any car seat
involved in a crash. “Thanks
to The USAA Foundation’s
contribution to Memorial, we
can replace these seats for
families involved in crashes.”

orina es clave para determinar
el
organismo
y
su
sensibilidad.”
El tratamiento puede ser
iniciado tan pronto como la
orina ha sido recolectada y
enviada a laboratorio, ya que
los resultados del cultivo
pueden tomar entre 24 y 48
horas. El Dr. Zimmern dice que
una vez los síntomas han
desaparecido es necesario que
el urólogo resuelva dos
cuestiones: Primero, ¿ha
desaparecido la infección? Y
segundo, ¿de dónde vino la
infección? para poder prevenir
que sea recurrente.
Dos semanas después de
completado el tratamiento, un
nuevo cultivo de orina debe
resultar negativo si el
tratamiento fue exitoso. Sin
embargo, muchas infecciones
recurren brevemente después
de terminado el tratamiento
inicial y sin un cultivo de
seguimiento nunca queda
claro si es una condición
persistente o una nueva
infección. Una infección que
sucede una sola vez raramente
es estudia a profundidad, pero
infecciones
recurrentes
requieren de una evaluación
más completa de los riñones y
la vejiga, tanto en términos de
anatomía
como
de
funcionamiento.

Agencies and as a partner in
the Colorado Springs office of
law firm Holme Roberts &
Owen. He obtained his law
degree from Harvard Law
School and his bachelor ’s
degree in business from the
University of ColoradoBoulder.
Garcia has twice been
selected as Hispanic Business
Magazine’s “Hispanic Legal
Elite” and as “President of the
Year” by the Colorado
Community Colleges State
Student Advisory Council.
Colorado Springs NAACP also
named him “Outstanding

Garcia also serves on a
number of boards and
committees, including the
Colorado Springs YMCA, the

REAL ESTATE
Springheart
Somehow, the Springheart’s
front facade manages to strike
a chord that harmonizes
contemporary styling with
traditional design elements.
Framed out columns,
decorative stick work, and
stone veneer wainscoting give
the home a nostalgic look, as
do the arched door and
window.
Lap siding and hipped
rooflines add modern touches,
while
the
multipaned
windows are as popular now
as they were many years ago.
Big, fluffy plants suspended
from decorative iron shepherd
hook planter hangers add to
the overall charm.
Inside, this plan is packed
with all the most popular
contemporary features. The
kitchen has a large work island
and is open to the dining area
as well as the vaulted, skylit,
and generously glassed great
room. Cabinets and a large
home entertainment center
flank the gas fireplace.
Light washes into the dining
area through tall French doors,
one of which swings open,
leading onto a vaulted and
partially covered patio.
Kitchen cupboard and counter
spaces are well supplied,
including a good-sized pantry.
Appliances are built in.
A powder room plus laundry
appliances and a deep sink are
nearby. These rooms line the
hallway that links to a two-car
garage with plenty of shop/
storage space.
The owners’ suite is a wellisolated adult retreat. Its
sleeping area has an elegant
tray ceiling, roomy walk-in
closet, and direct access to the
patio. Bathroom amenities
include a deep soaking tub and
dual vanity. The shower and
toilet are separately enclosed.
Secondary bedrooms are on
the opposite side of the house.
One has a walk-in closet and
connects directly to the shared
bathroom.
Two more rooms line the
Springheart’s vaulted entry.
These could be furnished as a
home office and living room, or
put to other uses.
For a review plan, including
scaled floor plans, elevations,
section and artist’s conception,
send $25 to Associated
Designs, 1100 Jacobs Dr.,
Eugene, OR 97402.
Please specify the
Springheart 10-530 and include
a return address when
ordering.
A catalog featuring more
than 550 home plans is
available for $15.
