Alcoholics Anonymous: A Letter to the Media About Anonymity

January 28, 2021

NEW YORK, Jan. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — From time to time we reach out to our friends in the media to thank them for helping us observe our long-standing tradition of anonymity for members of Alcoholics Anonymous.

First, we’d like to express our thanks. From the beginning of A.A. over 85 years ago, we’ve recognized that word-of-mouth is not enough to carry the A.A. program’s message of hope and recovery to the many people still suffering from alcoholism. We’ve needed help — and the media has been a vital part of this effort. Today we estimate that there are more than 2 million successfully recovering members of Alcoholics Anonymous in more than 180 countries, and much of this growth can be attributed to the willingness of journalists and media professionals around the world to take an interest in our Fellowship.

Second, we invite your ongoing cooperation in maintaining the anonymity of A.A. members. The principle of anonymity is at the core of our Fellowship. Those who are reluctant to seek our help often overcome their fear if they are confident that their anonymity will be respected. In addition, and perhaps less understood, our tradition of anonymity acts as a healthy guardrail for A.A. members, reminding us that we are a program of principles, not personalities, and that no individual A.A. member acts as a spokesperson of our Fellowship.

If an A.A. member is identified in the media, we ask that you please use first names only (e.g., Sofia M. or Ben T.) and that you not use images in which members’ faces may be recognized. This helps to provide members with the security that anonymity can bring.

Again, we thank you for your continued cooperation — in helping to carry our message to those in need of it and for helping keep the focus on the principles of Alcoholics Anonymous rather than any personalities.

If you would like to know more about A.A. you are welcome to visit the “Press/Media” section of aa.org. We hope you will take a moment to watch a brief video on why anonymity remains a vital principle in Alcoholics Anonymous. Our Fellowship does not comment on matters of public controversy, but we are happy to provide information about A.A. to anyone who seeks it.

Sincerely,
Public Information Committee of Alcoholics Anonymous

WASHINGTON, Jan. 26, 2021 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — MPOWER Financing, an innovative fintech platform and the leading provider of educational loans to high-promise international and DACA students, announced that it recently raised $25M from Tilden Park Capital Management LP, a New York-based investment management firm.

Predominantly ex-international students themselves, the MPOWER team directly relates to the challenges that international students face due to Covid and fast-changing immigration policies, and the company is honored to support international students at this critical time in history.

National Survey Finds Lag in Cervical Cancer Screening and Information for Hispanic and Black Women

January 27, 2021

0

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27, 2021 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — “These national findings demonstrate the critical need to ensure that equity is a part of all efforts to ensure information and access to services for women. Our findings reveal that Hispanic and Black women are not getting the information they need for their health,” said Jane L. Delgado, PhD, MS, President and CEO of the National Alliance for Hispanic Health (the Alliance), the nation’s leading Hispanic health advocacy group.

“This new study demonstrates the importance in giving all women information that they can use in as many platforms as possible. No one source of information is sufficient. We need to recognize the importance of expanding information about Pap tests, HPV and Cervical cancer risk,” concluded Dr. Delgado.

Cervical cancer is the only gynecological cancer for which there is a screening test — the Pap test. Nevertheless, Black and Hispanic women continue to have the highest incidence rates of cervical cancer¹ and the highest age adjusted mortality rates (3.2 and 2.4 per 100,000 respectively) for cervical cancer.² A recent national study by the Healthy Americas Foundation and the Alliance found that a larger proportion of Hispanic women (13.5%) have never had a Pap test, compared to non-Hispanic Black (11.7%) and non-Hispanic White (5.9%) women.

Given the rates of cervical cancer among Hispanic women it is concerning that Hispanic women are less likely than non-Hispanic Black and White women to have a healthcare provider talk to them about a Pap test or HPV. Additionally, non-Hispanic Black women are the least likely to have a healthcare provider talk to them about cervical cancer. Furthermore, among women who have had a Pap test, Hispanic women receive their first Pap test at later ages, with 9.1% of Hispanic women getting their first Pap above the age of 30, compared to 7.2% and 6.2% for non-Hispanic Black and White women, respectively (see figure below).

The study also surveyed health providers on their positions regarding screening and cervical cancer. It found that 99% of providers say that, with some very few exceptions due to patient age or level of sexual activity, women should have both Pap and HPV tests. Further, 96% of providers say it is beneficial to get both done in the same visit and only 18% say HPV screening is sufficient alone to screen for cervical cancer. Thus, it is crucial for all adult women to get screened for cervical cancer with both Pap and HPV tests, and especially for this information to get to Hispanic and Black communities.

Methodology Statement. NORC at the University of Chicago conducted the Cervical Cancer Study on behalf of the Healthy Americas Foundation and the National Alliance of Hispanic Health using NORC’s AmeriSpeak® Panel and Dynata’s nonprobability online opt-in panel for the sample sources. The study also utilized the Dynata Health Provider panel to interview GPs and OBGYNs. The study obtained a representative sample of white, Black, and Hispanic women between the ages of 21-65 and a sample of health care providers in order to measure opinions and attitudes regarding cervical cancer, Pap testing, HPV screening, and HPV vaccines. AmeriSpeak®, is a large probability-based panel funded and operated by NORC at the University of Chicago. The December Survey included 1900 interviews: 534 White females (ages 21-65), 587 Black females (ages 21-65), 470 Hispanic females (ages 30-65), and 309 Hispanic females (ages 21-29). For the healthcare providers study 558 interviews were collected.

January 27, 2021

HOMESTEAD, Fla., Jan. 27, 2021 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The book Mi Historia was created by Carlos Santos. Carlos Santos is an author who was born in San Juan, Puerto Rico. He is also a survivor of a very tragic accident that changed his life.

Carlos Santos said this about his book: “The main reason and motive I had in my heart to write this book is I did it thinking about those people who often feel useless and worthless in this world, but it is not like that. If when reading this story of pain, tears, and despair, you do not experience encouragement and desire to improve in your life. You will make me feel very sad and uncomfortable with myself for having done a work that did not stimulate your own heart in the least. But you would make me happy if you began to see yourself as wonderful as God, your creator, sees you. In your whole life, you will go through a test so hard and difficult to bear; and if I could overcome it, I am 100 percent sure your trust is in God first and then in you and that you too will be able to overcome any anguish, tribulation, or battle you are going through. If I could win, how could you not achieve it? You are healthy and strong. Nothing and no one can harm you. Here’s an example of courage, determination, and self-improvement. My life today is different, and yours will be like this. It will change for a power that you will not be able to see, but you can feel.”

Published by Page Publishing, Carlos Santos’s new book Mi Historia will inspire the readers’ hearts with evoking and thought-provoking real-life moments in life that show the power of faith and hope in times of tribulation.

ZF Launches Series Production for new EV Braking System

January 26, 2021

0

LIVONIA, Mich., Jan. 26, 2021 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — ZF confirms its position as a technology and system supplier for electromobility with a new series production order. The latest in ZF brake control solutions will be established as standard in Volkswagen’s ID.3 and ID.4 models as well as in Volkswagen Group’s globally marketed modular e-drive system MEB platform. With its new brake control, ZF can help to meet high comfort and safety requirements. Furthermore, it optimizes the recovery of braking energy – increasing the range and everyday usability of electric vehicles.

Volkswagen Group’s order for the new ZF brake control system covers several million vehicles – starting with the recently introduced ID.3 and ID.4 and continuing with future models based on the manufacturer’s MEB e-drive platform MEB.

With an optimized software interface, ZF’s new braking system can be integrated and networked even more easily into the electronic architecture of the vehicles.

The ZF system also supports driver assistance features such as automatic emergency braking. In addition, ZF’s solution replaces previously necessary mechanical components (such as the parking lock) with software functions, which saves both weight and costs.

“We meet the trend toward electromobility with our entire range of technological solutions – not just in driveline technology,” says Wolf-Henning Scheider, CEO of ZF Group. “This supply order from Volkswagen emphasizes how our competencies for braking systems as well as for networked systems contribute to increasing the range of our customers electric vehicles. To this end, our systems help to meet high comfort and safety requirements.”

On a technical level, ZF brake control is based on a combination of the company’s electronic brake booster (EBB) and its electronic stability control (ESC). The system is part of a software network housed in the stability control unit. It helps meet stringent safety standards set by the European road safety association EuroNCAP. New testing protocols for functions such as automatic emergency braking drive the need for more powerful boost to provide braking force even faster and more dynamically.

ZF Friedrichshafen AG
ZF is a global technology company and supplies systems for passenger cars, commercial vehicles and industrial technology, enabling the next generation of mobility.
