Gloria

Laura Branigan

Gloria, you're always on the run now

Running after somebody

You gotta get him somehow

I think you've got to slow down

Before you start to blow it

I think you're headed for a breakdown

So be careful not to show it

 

You really don't remember

Was it something that he said?

Are the voices in your head calling, Gloria?

Gloria, don't you think you're fallin'?

If everybody wants you

Why isn't anybody callin'?

You don't have to answer

Leave them hangin' on the line

Oh-oh-oh, calling Gloria

 

Gloria (Gloria)

I think they got your number (Gloria)

I think they got the alias (Gloria)

That you've been living under (Gloria)

But you really don't remember

Was it something that they said?

Are the voices in your head calling, Gloria?

 

A-ha-ha, a-ha-ha

Gloria, how's it gonna go down?

Will you meet him on the main line

Or will you catch him on the rebound?

Will you marry for the money?

Take a lover in the afternoon?

Feel your innocence slippin' away

Don't believe it's comin' back soon

 

And you really don't remember

Was it something that he said?

Are the voices in your head calling, Gloria?

Gloria, don't you think you've fallin'?

If everybody wants you

Why isn't anybody callin'?

You don't have to answer

Leave them hangin' on the line

Oh-oh-oh, calling Gloria

 

Gloria (Gloria)

I think they got your number (Gloria)

I think they got the alias (Gloria)

That you've been living under (Gloria)

But you really don't remember

Are the voices in your head calling, Gloria?

About Comite de Bien Estar Inc.

 

Comité works to empower Mexican-Americans and new immigrants to help them overcome the many barriers they face, including very low wages, little access to conventional financing and limited political representation. Founded by farm workers in 1977 and incorporated in 1981, Comité is a membership non-profit that focuses on helping members build assets and strengthen the whole community. Four years after it started by pooling member savings, Comité purchased its first hundred acres for development for $1.4 million.

"I've been here since 1949. There were only five houses then. Together we've made a lot of things happen. Young people have opportunities now."

  • Delores Ybarra

 

Comité is located in San Luis, Arizona. San Luis, a town of about 19,000 in Yuma County in the southwestern corner of the state where agriculture is the major industry. The town is just across the river from California and the border from San Luis de Colorado in Mexico, a city of 300,000, many of whom work in multinational maquiladoras. During the height of the Yuma harvesting season, 30,000 to 40,000 Mexican farm workers cross the border each day.

 

Over and above the 111 children and their parents that Comité serves with center day care; the public schools that its land development makes possible; the training it provides for young people and adults; the work ethic it cultivates; the skills it imparts to entire families building self-help housing; and its culture and reaction activities for youth - Comité also helps more than 275 low income women deliver home day care to up to six children each by providing them with:

 

Training in nutrition and how to prepare nutritional meals and teach children and parents to eat them

Assistance in upgrading their homes to qualify as day care sites

Income supplements for each child served nutritional meals

Inspections to insure that they continue to receive supplements

Encouragement to improve their childcare skills and make the transition to being center providers

"Comite gets to vote for you"

 

Becoming a Comité Member

 

Anyone can become a Comité member by paying an initial $650 deposit, a $40 membership fee and $5 per month thereafter. There is no payment schedule and members make payments as they can afford to do so, but a monthly deposit of about $150 is expected until we complete the development of the land (about 18 months). When a member has accumulated $2,500 (in addition to fees) he/she is eligible to choose a lot.The cost of a lot minus the amount the member actually has on account (their equity), leaves a balance, for which we arrange financing. The Comité acts as a fiduciary agent and facilitates transfer of the deed of trust; the member makes monthly payments to Title Company into a restricted trust account to pay off the development/permanent loan to the bank. We establish a reserve account that covers any "delinquent" member so they maintain excellent credit.

 

Over a period of about 18 months, a member develops equity which now provides them with a vehicle for leverage on a mortgage (increased home ownership, HUD Priority). They can take up to five or even ten years to pay off their lot, or may decide that the time is right to build their home; this is the time we provide the majority of our housing programs and services to alleviate financial duress or other impediments to affordable housing.

US authorities discover secret tunnel running from Mexico to an abandoned KFC

Greg Evans

Aug 25, 2018

 

This might sound like a storyline from Breaking Bad but US authorities have discovered a tunnel that leads from Mexico to an abandoned KFC restaurant in Arizona.

 

In April, the Department of Homeland Security revealed that they had received information about the tunnel underneath the KFC whichwas located in San Luis, around 200 yards north of the Mexican border.

 

The building reportedly belongs to a man named Ivan Lopez who was arrested after several packages containing methamphetamine, cocaine, heroin and fentanyl were found in the back of his truck.

 

This lead to the authorities searching the building and discovering the hidden tunnel, which is said to have been big enough for people to walk through.

 

Speaking to the Associated Press, Scott Brown, who is the special agent in charge of the case said that increased controls on the Mexican border are forcing drug smugglers to go to 'more costly routes into the US.'

 

Lopez, who the US government believe is a member of a cartel, is said to have brought the building back in April but it is unclear how long the tunnel has been there.

 

He is currently being held in federal detention without bond, as he is considered to be a flight risk.

 

In the last 28 years, over 200 tunnels running across the US/Mexico border have been discovered, despite them costing traffickers hundreds of thousands of dollars to construct.

Border Patrol: ‘Most sophisticated tunnel in U.S. history’ found in Arizona

 

August 07, 2020 at 3:38 pm PDT

 

PHOENIX — A complicated tunnel has been found stretching almost a quarter of a mile from Mexico into the United States by Homeland Security Investigations.

 

Authorities said the tunnel was intended for smuggling and ran from a neighborhood in Mexico to a suburban neighborhood of San Luis, Arizona. The tunnel was discovered before there was access created on the U.S. side.

 

“This appears to be the most sophisticated tunnel in U.S. history, and certainly the most sophisticated I’ve seen in my career,” said Carl E. Landrum, acting chief patrol agent with the Border Patrol’s Yuma Sector.

 

The tunnel measured 3 feet wide and 4 feet high and was equipped with a fully developed ventilation system, water lines, electrical wiring, a rail system, extensive reinforcement and shoring, known to be commonly used in sophisticated subterranean tunnels.

 

Homeland Security Investigations found the tunnel in late July when a sinkhole appeared between the primary and secondary border fences. A camera was sent 25 feet (7.6 meters) underground after federal agents discovered a sinkhole in the area of a tunnel investigation, authorities said.

 

In January, a tunnel was discovered in the San Diego area that was more than 14 football fields in length that stretched into an industrial site in Tijuana, Mexico.

 

By federal law, U.S. authorities must fill the U.S. side of tunnels with concrete after they are discovered.

 

The Associated Press contributed to this story.

A Message from the Executive Director

 

Hello and Welcome,

 

First let me start off by thanking you for visiting our website and taking the time to learn more about us and the organization known as Comite De Bien Estar Inc. Comite De Bien Estar is a multifaceted community development organization that strives to both improve and serve our community of San Luis Arizona and its surrounding areas. Comité works to empower residents to help them overcome the many barriers they face, including very low wages, little access to conventional mortgage financing and to overcome environmental limitations that impact their quality of life. Founded mostly by farm workers in 1979 and incorporated in 1981, Comité is a membership driven non-profit that focuses on helping members build assets and strengthen the community through programs that fill needs in the community such as: Nutrition program, Self Help Housing, Construction, Low Income Tax Credit Based Apartment Housing Management and Development, Small consumer & entrepreneurial loans and many more needed services.

 

Comité is located in San Luis, Arizona. San Luis is a town of about 30,000 people in Yuma County in the southwestern corner of the state where agriculture is the major industry. The city is just across the river from California and borders with San Luis Rio Colorado, Sonora Mexico, population 250,000, many of its residents work in multinational maquiladoras or agriculture. During the height of the Yuma harvesting season, 30,000 to 40,000 farm workers cross the border each morning to go to work making the San Luis US Border Crossing one of the busiest in the country.

 

The public schools that its land development makes possible; the training it provides for young people and adults; the work ethic it cultivates; the skills it imparts to entire families building self-help housing and the self-help culture Comite promotes makes me feel it will improve the life of its members and community. As an example, Comite’s nutrition program supports more than 360 daycare providers to provide nutritious meals for approximately 2160 children each month. The Nutrition program is the 4th largest program of its kind in the State of Arizona.

 

As an organization we have grown and expanded over the last 37 years but have always kept our promises and our culture of improving and strengthening our community together. We are working to improve ourselves along with our communities while looking forward to a better future.

 

Thank You,

 

Marco A (Tony) Reyes

Executive Director
