Rey Misterio: Lucha y Superación

Ser optimista y mantenerse determinado ante la adversidad es difícil para muchos. Aun así, siempre hay algo por que luchar, aunque se vea poca esperanza.

Rey Misterio, ex luchador de talla mundial, ha enfrentado muchas dificultades en su camino a volverse una leyenda de los cuadriláteros. A pesar de enfrentar momentos amargos en su carrera y vida personal, él siempre ha se ha enfocado en salir adelante.

“Aun con todo lo que debe que cargar un luchador, mi cosa favorita de luchar siempre ha sido traer a la vida a el personaje de Rey Misterio, el cual es muy querido por muchos”, dijo Misterio a La Prensa San Diego en una entrevista.

Rey Misterio, cuyo nombre de pila es Miguel Angel López, cree que tenía como destino ser luchador.

Su afición a la lucha libre comenzó a muy temprana edad, cuando un grupo de vecinos de su barrio fue a una función de luchas en su natal Tijuana. Fue esa noche en la que nació dentro de López la afición por la lucha libre.

Con el paso de los años, López recibió entrenamiento por parte de figuras locales dentro de la lucha libre tijuanense como el “Chamaco” Martinez, El Marinero, y Maravilla Blanca.

El 6 de enero de 1976, López recibiría la oportunidad de debutar como luchador profesional ante un lleno total en el Auditorio de Tijuana. Esa noche nació la persona de Rey Misterio, nombre que proviene de la fecha en la que debutó, el Dia de Reyes, y por la necesidad de mantener en misterio su identidad, esto debido a que López no quería que su familia se enterara que era luchador.

Desde esa noche, y en cada función en la que se presentaba Rey Misterio, el personaje de López se comenzaba a ganar el respeto y cariño de la afición tijuanense. Con cada lucha, López también sometia a su cuerpo a una serie de impactos muy fuertes.

Durante su etapa como luchador profesional, el personaje de Rey Misterio subió a el rombo de batalla de seis por seis en las más importantes arenas de Mexico, al igual que plazas en Estados Unidos y varios paises mas.

A pesar del amor a su profesión, López afirma que durante sus largas giras el sentia que más que su salud, su sacrificio más grande era no estar con su familia.

“Yo estuve fuera durante fechas muy importantes y eso siempre me pesó muchisimo”, aseguró. “Esta forma de vida te da mucho pero te quita cosas que no tienen precio”.

Rey Misterio sin su mascara

El Legado de Rey Misterio como luchador incluye varios campeonatos nacionales y la formación de luchadores tijuanenses quienes se han vuelto figuras internacionales como Damian 666, Konnan, Psicosis, Extreme Tiger y Rey Mysterio Jr., quien es sobrino de López.

En una función realizada en Denver, Colorado, López lucho contra La Parka, uno de los personajes favoritos entre los aficionados a la lucha. Durante su enfrentamiento, López recibió un golpe que le provocó espasmos musculares y a los dias le causó mucho dolor.

“En este deporte hay un gran riesgo y siempre termina uno sacrificado por el aficionado”, compartió López. “Cuando un luchador se siente bien físicamente jamás quiere que eso se acabe”.

Una noche, al levantarse de su cama, López sintió que las piernas ya no le reaccionaban y entró en desesperación y pánico.

“Me arrastré hacia un sofá y me senté, luego me quise suicidar”, confesó López. “Fue tan fuerte la depresión que sentí en ese momento que intente matarme”.

Con la fuerza para seguir con vida, López se sometió por varios meses a estudios médicos y tratamientos. Eventualmente, la lesión que sufrió finalmente le costó el uso total de sus piernas.

Durante una terapia y tras hablar con amigos, López vio que tenía un propósito más grande que simplemente ser Rey Misterio.

Encontrando inspiración en su cristianismo, López ahora vive nueva etapa como orador motivacional y busca impartir consejos y ejemplos de las experiencias que ha tenido, tanto como figura pública como en su vida privada.

López mas que nada busca llevar esperanza a gente con discapacidades, ya que el conoce de primera mano lo aterrador que puede llegar a ser perder el uso de las extremidades.

“A la gente discapacitada con la que hablo siempre le hago saber que que la vida no se acaba estando en una silla de ruedas, todavia se puede vivir una vida plena”, afirmó López. “Les comparto mi testimonio de vida y les aconsejo que no caigan en cadenas de pensamientos negativos”.

Durante sus presentaciones, López también realiza convivencias con el público, creando así un enlace más personal con quienes escuchan su mensaje.

“Aveces cuando platico con gente de la audiencia me preguntan más acerca de mi vida, mas acerca de como me supere psicológicamente de mi lesión y varias cosas”, mencionó.

“A veces también me preguntan si me quito la mascara para dormir o para bañarme”, López agregó en tono de broma.

Sin perder de vista lo más importante, López siempre recomienda a todos no tener miedo a la hora de enfrentar nuevos retos, por tan intimidantes que estos sean.

“Yo he sobresalido en mi vida personal y como luchador por mi audacidad”, concluyó López. “Siempre el mundo ha sido para los audaces”.

OP-ED: Oregon Foster Care Said Parents Not Smart Enough to Raise Their Son, But Judge Vehemently Disagreed

Last month, the Oregon Department of Human Services deployed three lawyers to call 40 witnesses over 11 days in a desperate attempt to keep one child in foster care. They had confiscated the child, at birth, from Amy Fabbrini and Eric Ziegler. Fortunately, they failed. After ten months in foster care, the child was returned to his parents. But DHS will be back in court this month trying to terminate Fabbrini and Ziegler’s parental rights to their other child, who has been in foster care for four years.

Oregon DHS is an agency where people constantly whine about how overworked and underfunded they are. So surely any couple who would bring so much legal firepower down upon them must have done horrible things to their children. But what? Did they beat them? Torture them? Try to sell them on the street for drugs?

No.

In fact the parents never abused or neglected their children at all.

Eric Ziegler & son, Hunter, Facebook

The legal assault on this couple initially was based on the fact that Ziegler’s IQ is 66 and Fabbrini’s is 72. (The average is between 90 and 110.) That may be illegal – a violation of the federal Americans with Disabilities Act. The Departments of Justice and Health and Human Services drew that conclusion in a scathing letter to the state of Massachusetts when it tried to pull the same stunt in a remarkably similar case. (DHS’ behavior also probably violates the “reasonable efforts” requirement in federal child welfare law, but almost no one in child welfare pays attention to that.)

It certainly should be illegal. As Susan Yuan, former associate director of the Center on Disability and Community Inclusion at the University of Vermont told Samantha Swindler, a columnist for the Oregonian who first wrote about the case, “Research literature has found that the IQ really doesn’t correlate with parenting until the IQ is below 50.”

I say IQ was initially the reason because I believe the hostility to the family escalated after the couple went public, speaking first to Swindler, then to the television program Inside Edition. That prompted a DHS spokeswoman to complain that “This family has been very public about this case. We have to protect the privacy of those children.”

Translating from child welfare-speak to plain English, that really means: Now that they’ve gone public it will be really, really humiliating for us here at DHS if we lose — especially since, in Oregon, court hearings in these cases are open and everyone will be able to see what we’ve done to this family.

In fact, it’s likely that the only way the family stood a chance was to go public. But I think that’s why the Oregon Department of Human Services is trying so hard to Make. Them. Pay. Indeed, this is not the first time Oregon DHS has gone to great lengths to seek vengeance against a family that made the agency look bad.


A litany of non-horrors

Because these hearings are open in Oregon, Swindler could cover the court hearing where Judge Bethany Flint returned the younger child, Hunter, to the parents.

Over the course of 11 days Judge Flint heard a litany of non-horrors about the parents: They had to be told to put sunscreen on the baby’s arms, not just his face! Their home “smelled of dog”! They chose the wrong snacks for the child!

Judge Bethany Flint

And, at a time when thousands of people lose their children to foster care because their housing is too bad, DHS argued that this couple’s housing was, in effect, too good. As Swindler reported:

At one point [a lawyer for DHS] argued the couple’s housing permanency – they live in a house with the mortgage paid by Ziegler’s parents – was a sign of deficiency. “Going through the rental and purchasing processes show a level of functioning and a level of ability that would be important to look at,” she said.

Fortunately, Judge Flint understood exactly what was really going on – at least up to a point. Again from Swindler’s story, quoting the judge:

“I searched and searched [in DHS’ case] for some sort of language that was provided to articulate what the current threat of harm is to Hunter right now. … There is no allegation that they’re not able to meet his basic needs. …

“I found it difficult to read that these parents tried this thing and tried that thing and then they are advised that instead of chicken nuggets they should have boiled chicken breast, that giving fried foods is a parenting deficiency. …

At times, the state argued that Fabbrini and Ziegler asked too many questions, suggesting they didn’t know how to parent. At other times, the state implied they didn’t ask enough questions, trying to show they didn’t understand their cognitive limitations.

“They can’t win for losing,” Flint said. “I think there’s a lot of evidence in the record that whenever they do say things they are attacked for them, which could create a culture of silence around the parents as well.”


The DHS visit supervisor supports the parents

The judge’s view jibes with that of a neutral outside observer who spent a lot of time with the family. Sherrene Hagenbach is a professional mediator and a member of the Board of Advisers for Healthy Families of the High Desert, a home visiting program for new mothers. She’s also a volunteer visit supervisor for DHS – or rather she was. Before Hunter was born, she was assigned to supervise visits between the parents and their older son, Christopher. But after she testified in court in favor of the parents, she says her supervisor said her services no longer were needed.

Now she volunteers her time as an advocate for the family. On a fundraising page for them (which is well worth reading in full) she wrote:

“In my professional opinion, after multiple sessions observing Amy and Eric interact with their son for hours on end, I found no reason they should have had their child taken from them and placed in the State’s care. … I would also add that it was apparent from their body language and how they treated each other that the couple was in love, and while that is not a requirement to be a parent, it’s a big bonus for a child.

Hagenbach writes that when Hunter was born she offered to take in the entire family – the infant and her parents – and supervise them around the clock. She says a judge ordered DHS to do a background check in preparation for that placement. Somehow DHS never got around to it, and the placement never happened. Hunter was placed with strangers.


The real issue is poverty

In an interview with Swindler, Hagenbach revealed that the real issue went beyond I.Q. Once again, a child protective services agency was after a family because it was poor:

They’re saying that this foster care provider is better for the child because she can provide more financially, provide better education, things like that. If we’re going to get on that train, Bill Gates should take my children. There’s always somebody better than us, so it’s a very dangerous position to be in.”

The parents jumped through every hoop DHS put in their way. They took courses in parenting, CPR, first aid and nutrition – probably leaving them better qualified to meet their children’s needs than many parents with higher IQs.

In addition, Hagenbach told Inside Edition, Ziegler was chosen for jury duty on a four-day case involving a housing dispute. “So he’s capable of deciding somebody else’s fate,” Hagenbach said, “and yet he can’t even raise his own child?”


The dangerous underlying assumption

Implicit is all of this is a common, and dangerous, assumption by child welfare agencies: In order to be allowed to have their children the people in our society who have the least must prove they can do something that nobody else does: raise their children with no help.

Even Judge Flint may have fallen into this trap. Though she returned Hunter to his parents, she expressed concerns about doing the same for the older child, Christopher, because he has developmental problems and the judge isn’t convinced that the parents fully understand those problems.

But if the parents were middle-class, they could hire whatever help they needed for the child. Middle-class parents are not expected to raise their children with no help.

Of course since they can’t necessarily afford to pay for the help on their own, that means taxpayers would foot the bill. But it would be a bargain.

An Oregon group that promotes adoption estimates that a year of foster care costs taxpayers at least $26,600. (Obviously not all of that is going to the foster parents, a lot of it goes to support the whole DHS foster care bureaucracy.) These children have been in foster care for a combined total of about five years. That’s $133,000 wasted – and counting, since the older child is still in foster care. Add to that the cost of all those lawyers, and the expert witnesses and the court time and, well, you get the idea.

You could buy a lot of parenting help for that kind of money.

Or as Swindler put it:

“No doubt, these parents will need outside help to face the challenges ahead. How much heartache could have been avoided if the state had opted to, say, provide a parenting aide to coach them rather than a case worker to criticize them?”

Oregon spends on child welfare at a rate more than 55 percent above the national average. That’s largely because it wastes so much money on needless foster care, taking away children at a rate 30 percent above the national average.

So the next time people in Oregon complains about how overworked the good folks at DHS are, ask them why DHS wasted so much time and talent needlessly tearing apart this family instead of providing them with help. And the next time they whine about how underfunded they are, ask them why they wasted so much money needlessly separating these children from their parents.

And one other question comes to mind: Wasting all that time and money and inflicting all that unnecessary trauma on a family isn’t very smart. Has anyone given the decision-makers at DHS an I.Q. test?


Editor’s Postscript:  

In late September, 2012, the National Council on Disability  released an important and extremely comprehensive report titled “Rocking the Cradle: Ensuring the Rights of Parents with Disabilities and Their Children.

Parents with disabilities, wrote the authors of the 347-page encyclopedic accounting, “are the only distinct community of Americans who must struggle to retain custody of their children.”

The right to parent without interference is protected by the U.S. Constitution, the authors noted in the report’s cover letter addressed to then-President Obama.  That constitutional right is, of course, ” balanced by the judicially recognized power of the state to interfere to protect the well-being of its children.”

Yet, despite the strides made since the 1990 passage of the Americans With Disabilities Act, or ADA, for parents with disabilities, according to the researchers, the factors used in both the nation’s dependency courts and family court proceedings to determine whether children need to become wards of the state, “are not objectively or justly applied.”.

To the contrary, parents with disabilities and their children “are overly, and often inappropriately, referred to child welfare services” and, once involved, the report found that the children of parents with disabilities are permanently separated from their kids at alarmingly disproportionate rates.

In detail, the report described state and local foster care systems that were “pervaded with bias.”

This bias was made far worse by state laws that very often “overtly discriminate against parents with disabilities,” or at best failed to protect parents “from unsupported allegations that they are unfit” solely based on their disabilities—in clear and egregious violation of the ADA.

In general, the researchers found a dispiriting “lack of expertise or even familiarity regarding parents with disabilities and their children.”

This lack of knowledge and expertise was particularly problematic when it came to parents with intellectual or psychiatric disabilities, according to the report.  As a result, the authors wrote, removal rates where parents have a psychiatric disability were as high as 70 to 80 percent. And, where the parent has an intellectual disability, removals ranged from “40 percent to 80 percent.”

The report pointed to California as one of the few states that had made legislative strides in the direction of protecting parents with physical disabilities from discrimination with the passage of  SB 1188, which was signed into law by Arnold Schwarzenegger in August 2010.  

Yet, according to a 2017 policy review by Disability Rights California,  protection from discrimination on the basis of “mental, psychiatric, or developmental disability” is still sadly lacking in the state.

In no community, the 2012 federal report concluded, is the welfare of children served “by breaking up families based on fear and stereotype.” Instead, if the nation is truly concerned about the welfare of children, as Richard Wexler suggests in his op-ed above, we would be best off, wrote the federal researchers, investing “more money and energy in preventive services for families rather than in parental rights termination and foster care.”

And yet, as of 2016, warns an NCD published “Know Your Rights” toolkit for parents with disabilities, 35 states still have discriminatory laws on the books that mean “if you had a disability, you could lose your right to be a parent, even if you didn’t hurt or ignore your child.”

The Palestine Question

I have written about the Palestinian/Israeli situation for years…..I have even given my idea on a way from them to establish a separate state…..the protests by Palestinians have been going on for 20+ years although there has been friction between the two people since 1919 and the end of World War One. (more info about posts c an be learned using the “Search” feature)

A new round of all out disobedience has begun with Trump’s declaration on Jerusalem…..this situation opens up a whole new line of thought about the two states…..

What does Trump’s recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel mean for the future of Palestine and the Palestinians, and what does it reveal about US policy? Al-Shabaka policy analysts examine these questions and recommend ways for Palestinian civil society and leaders to safeguard Palestinian rights in the face of such a setback.

Nur Arafeh argues that Trump’s announcement cements Israel’s apartheid regime and “Judaization” policies in Jerusalem, and calls for the PA to end coordination with Israel and nullify the Oslo Accords. Dana El Kurd makes the case that the US move creates two opposing legal frameworks for Jerusalem, one that follows international law and one that bends to Israeli interests. “[Trump’s declaration] sets a precedent for greater legal recognition in the future,” she writes. “Palestinians should consider new ways of resisting Israeli colonization.” Munir Nuseibah reasons that the development confirms the US as a biased mediator. “The only positive outcome is that it ends the illusion that the ‘peace process’ is legitimate,” he writes.

http://ift.tt/2qwOJh1

That was the opinions of analysts in the region……

Some in the West are saying that with Trump’s announcement that the idea of a one state solution was once again on the table….

Jerusalem was an Arab and Muslim city for close to 1300 years. Like other parts of Palestine, it was a harmonious mosaic. But, though there was always a Christian and Jewish presence — both of people and of monuments — it was predominantly a Muslim city.

This was violently disrupted twice: first in the year 1099, from which for a period of 88 years the city was occupied by the Crusaders, and then again in 1948 when the newly created Jewish State took the city and made Jerusalem its own. When the State of Israel took the western part of the city in 1948, in violation of a United Nations Resolution, it destroyed its Arab and Muslim character and then declared it as the capital city of the Jewish people.

http://ift.tt/2BbOauW

More on the one state solution……

Donald Trump’s rash declaration of Jerusalem as the Israeli capital does not, of course, deserve thanks. How could it, when it in effect amounts to American complicity in supporting Israeli war crimes of illegal occupation? But one inadvertent positive outcome from the US President’s blundering is that it renews the alternative concept of a One-State solution.

Ironically, Trump’s outrageous bias towards the Israeli government of Benjamin Netanyahu slams a nail into the coffin of the Two-State solution.

The charade of Washington acting as a neutral broker between Israelis and Palestinians is finally dead and buried with Trump’s clumsy intervention.

http://ift.tt/2AR4MHb

Personally I say NO to the one state solution…..there has been a Palestine for over a thousand years and there should be for a thousand more.

The announcement by Trump gave the Saudis an opportunity to try and placate the Palestinians by proposing an alternative to Jerusalem as the capital of Palestine……

It was once a small rural village, noted for its fields of olive trees and spectacular views, overlooking the Old City of Jerusalem to the south-west and the Jordan Valley to the east.

But now Abu Dis is a name spoken by Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman as a potential capital of a future Palestinian state, as reported in the New York Times on 3 December.

This small East Jerusalem suburb was flung into the spotlight a few days later by Donald Trump’s announcement that the United States would recognise Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.

http://ift.tt/2kLWqKl

Seriously?

Jerusalem has always been the capital of Palestine and will always be the capital…..why does the US kiss the ass of Israel at every turn?

This is a situation that can only be solved by the two people involved….not as oppressor and oppressed but as equals.

CDC FluView Week 52: Influenza `Increased Sharply’ Across The Nation

wash hands, doors, handles, phones, keyboards, touch screens…

http://ift.tt/2i6mLj8

,034

For the second week in a row the CDC’s FluView report shows influenza activity has increased sharply across the nation, with the number of patient visits for ILI (Influenza-like Illness) so far matching the 2014-15 season, but on a pace that seems likely to exceed anything we’ve seen in recent years.

http://ift.tt/2i6mLj8

As always, the FluView report is a snapshot of flu activity more than a week ago, and so the numbers being racked up today are likely higher. 

Add in reporting delays over the holidays, and ongoing data collection problems with the P&I Mortality rate (which runs 2 weeks behind the rest of the data) and today’s report probably doesn’t do this year’s flu season justice. 

In any event, the numbers we have are plenty bad enough.  A brief summary shows:

2017-2018 Influenza Season Week 52 ending December 30, 2017

All data are preliminary and may change as more reports are received.
Synopsis:

During week 52 (December 24-30, 2017), influenza activity increased sharply in the United States.

Viral Surveillance: The most frequently identified influenza virus subtype reported by public health laboratories during week 52 was influenza A(H3). The percentage of respiratory specimens testing positive for influenza in clinical laboratories increased.
Pneumonia and Influenza Mortality: The proportion of deaths attributed to pneumonia and influenza (P&I) was below the system-specific epidemic threshold in the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) Mortality Surveillance System.
Influenza-associated Pediatric Deaths: One influenza-associated pediatric death was reported.
Influenza-associated Hospitalizations: A cumulative rate of 13.7 laboratory-confirmed influenza-associated hospitalizations per 100,000 population was reported.
Outpatient Illness Surveillance:The proportion of outpatient visits for influenza-like illness (ILI) was 5.8%, which is above the national baseline of 2.2%. All 10 regions reported ILI at or above region-specific baseline levels. New York City and 26 states experienced high ILI activity; Puerto Rico and nine states experienced moderate ILI activity; the District of Columbia and six states experienced low ILI activity; and nine states experienced minimal ILI activity.
Geographic Spread of Influenza:The geographic spread of influenza in 46 states was reported as widespread; four states reported regional activity; the District of Columbia reported local activity; and Guam, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands did not report.
(Continue . ..  )

If you haven’t gotten the flu vaccine, it isn’t too late.  While it may not protect as well as we’d like against H3N2, influenza B and H1N1 are part of this year’s mix, and the vaccine is expected to do much better against those strains.

If you aren’t practicing heavy duty flu hygiene (covering coughs, washing hands, staying home when sick, etc.) and somehow you haven’t gotten sick yet, you need to start.

And as we discussed last week, in Yes, We Have No Pandemic . . . But Line Up A Flu Buddy Anyway, now is a good time to form alliances with friends, relatives, and neighbors to help you (and them) get through this flu season.

While it may be too soon to call this year’s flu season `epic’, the early numbers are very impressive.  And not in a good way.
