We have to get around how we deal with Public Safety is more police.
We have to get around how we deal with Public Safety is more police. We need to deal with the root causes of crime in the African American community that deal with a history that is based on over 300 years of slavery, 100 years of government as your foe at all levels and 40 years of finding your way through integration.
Background: CINCINNATI CHANGE understands the Tri-state is politically fragmented and segregated by race and class.

By providing a real-time snapshot of a media property, The Uptown Security MAM Global Total Media Management System will allow media managers, licensee’s, franchisees and affiliates to make the best short- and long-term decisions, which ultimately affect their investments in development, production, licensing, programming, and marketing.
Homes - To create 20,000 homes in Greater Cincinnati with a focus on developing 12,000 homes for low and moderate-income households whose children will attend our schools along with homes for those who work, build and or teach in them. these homes will generate over 2 million dollars a year in revenue for 30 years. Each home is a camera site with over 70% being wired to monitor their community.
Each home will be HDTV based systems whereas the 16:9 display is backed up by a Microsoft IBM Fiber network with Hitachi, Sharp and Samsung technologies. We will use Dolby technologies and a adjustable 5:1 sound system through nuTECH. nuTECH is built into homes as our application of established patents.
Each home will be able to earn money through a variety of channels with over 2 Gigi bytes worth of bandwidth. We will oversee the creation of over two million homes across the globe for first responders based on the development of housing for the employees of Uptown Security.
Jobs - To create over 9,000 jobs in distance learning on jobs n public saftey, private securty and as a first responder along with high school education, first responder health care, seceiruty and saftey technology, hospitality security, entertainment and personal seciruty, real estate development and construction through partnerships with businesses that serve the public saftey and homeland security marketplace through Uptown Security and it's Empowerment Zone business, Renewal City business, MBE, DBE, FBE and HUB zone partners.

Uptown Security will work with Nati Action Agency to create training opportunities for over 1,000 uptown kids a year by 2007 through a alliance with the Cincinnati Public Schools. We will do that by creating a military school at the Riverfront, Uptown and in Bond Hill. By 2009 this infratsructure will employ over 4,000.
Capital: In the newest report on Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) agreements, the National Community Reinvestment Coalition (NCRC) finds that $4.2 trillion dollars have been infused into minority and lower income neighborhoods since CRA passed in 1977. Banks have committed to 430 CRA agreements, instituting multi-year programs covering loans, investments and banking services to communities in need.
LDG will implement a business model under the CRA IDIQ Business Process developed by Hershel Daniels, Junior starting at 2439 Auburn Avenue. From a lot on 2439 Auburn Uptown Security will build a urban prototype of our NEBS Sigma Six Quality Secure, Environmentally Safe and Life Supportive personal dwelling - each to cost no less than $330,000 and up to millions.
Uptown Security will enter into a agreement to be the implementation agent to start a military school in Cincinnati in January 2006 at 444 West Third Street that is to open in September 2006. Till then the school will rent space at an authorized building.
Uptown Security Cincinnati will create affiliates of Uptown Security in over 250 Empowerment Zones and Renewal Communities domestically and in over 250 foreign locations. Over 100 locations with company equity will be in operation within the next five years as master territory licenses - Uptown Security (city name).
Each with equity based on already IRS established revenue bonds, which are not volume capped – in the case of Cincinnati that is a multi million dollar investment by the end of 2005 in Uptown Security Cincinnati.
We would create Uptown Security with equity held in trust for the residents of the Uptown Alliance whereas Cincinnati Change would be the implementing agent. By 2010 we expect that over 4,000 staffers would provide education to over 1,000,000 students in military schools around the world.
In Cincinnati we have the resources to do this. Join us in Changing Cincinnati NOW.

Cincinnati Change is committed to the creation of Gulf Change that will support the rebuilding of over 20,000 people's lives in the Gulf over the next two years. Cincinnati Change will do this through a program called Churches Can Change Cincinnati NOW and a newly established Gulf Change organization going to aid people in the Gulf, with a focus on Port Arthur, Texas.
In the past week Cincinnati Change has hosted over 1,000 teens in the second Annual Cincinnati Hip Hop Summit and Educational Institute at Jordons Crossing. We tied these students to helping those in need in the Gulf in cooperation with HUD.
Now, Cincinnati Change will bring about a faith based youth leadership in aid to those in the Nati along with those in Gulf who will be living here for the next 18 months.
Cincinnati Change Board of Directors has decided our course of action in meeting the estimated requirements for assistance under the Stafford Act. We have chose our primary contractors and subcontractors who can supply to support 40,000 people in greater Port Arthur, New Orleans and other Gulf areas affected with companies from Ohio. We will have a focus on young people under 35 and peoples with disabilities.
MISSION AUTHORITY
On June 19th 2005 Cincinnati Change received its charter from the State of Ohio and stands ready to change Cincinnati NOW as an example of Global Change a business process owned by Lloyd Daniels Development Group that meets national emergencies in cooperation with those who want to change the world.
Federal Emergency Declaration
A federal emergency declaration allows the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to exercise its power to deal with emergency situations; federal assistance also become available to areas that are declared to be in a state of emergency. For FEMA, emergency declarations are different from the more common disaster declarations done for hurricanes and floods.
In the United States, the chief executive is typically empowered to declare a State of Emergency. Typically, a state of emergency empowers the executive to name coordinating officials to deal with the emergency and to override normal administrative processes regarding the passage of administrative rules. Currently this rests in the hands of Vice President of the United States.
White House Statement on Extension of Federal Assistance for Texas from Hurricane Rita
The President of the United States on September 27, 2005 amended the major disaster declaration issued on September 24, 2005, for Hurricane Rita for the State of Texas. Under the President's order today, the time period for 100 percent Federal funding for debris removal and emergency protective measures, including direct Federal assistance, is extended for a total of 34 days, through and including October 27, 2005.
The President of the United States, a governor of a state, or even a local mayor may declare a State of Emergency within his or her jurisdiction. This is relatively rare at the federal level, but quite common at the state level in response to natural disasters.
The courts in the United States are often very lenient in allowing almost any action to be taken in the case of such a declared emergency, if it is reasonably related. For example, habeas corpus is the right to challenge an arrest in court. The U.S. Constitution says, "The Privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety may require it."
Habeas corpus was suspended on April 27, 1861 during the American Civil War by Abraham Lincoln, the first Republican President, in parts of midwestern states, including southern Indiana. He did so in response to demands by generals to set up military courts to rein in "copperheads", or those in the Union who supported the Confederate cause. Lambdin Milligan and four others were accused of planning to steal Union weapons and invade Union prisoner-of-war camps and were sentenced to hang by a military court in 1864.
However, their execution was not set until May 1865, so they were able to argue the case after the Civil War. It was decided in the Supreme Court case Ex Parte Milligan 71 US 2 1866 that the suspension was unconstitutional because civilian courts were still operating, and the Constitution (according to the Court) only provided for suspension of habeas corpus if these courts are actually forced closed.
The International Emergency Economic Powers Act allows presidents to declare national emergencies for the purpose of freezing assets in which a foreign party has an interest, but these national emergencies are not states of emergency. President Franklin Roosevelt declared such an emergency with respect to gold in 1933, which apparently remained in force until 1978.
The Supreme Court ruling in Youngstown Sheet & Tube Co. v. Sawyer established that presidents may not act arbitrarily during an emergency.
On Saturday August 27th 2005, Louisiana Gov. Kathleen Babineaux Blanco (D) did request that President Bush "declare an emergency for the State of Louisiana due to Hurricane Katrina." The White House responded to Governor Blanco's request that same day (Saturday) by declaring the emergency and authorizing FEMA "to identify, mobilize, and provide at its discretion, equipment and resources necessary to alleviate the impacts of the emergency."
Executive Board of Cincinnati Change Board of Directors will meet on October 8th to decide our course of action based on the below estimated requirements for assistance under the Stafford Act which we and our contractors can supply to support 40,000 people in greater Port Arthur, New Orleans and others areas affected with a focus on young people under 35 and peoples with disabilities:
Coordination
Technical and advisory assistance
Debris removal
Emergency protective measures
Individuals and Households Program (IHP)
Distribution of emergency supplies
Other (specify)
"Our goal is to use existing resources in an innovative way to help all displaced individuals and families move from temporary shelters to more stable, safe and sufficient housing," said Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff. "Through this coordinated effort, the Federal government is taking quick and immediate action to cut through red tape and deliver immediate assistance to evacuees."
"Today we are offering residents more than just a roof over their head," said HUD Secretary Alphonso Jackson. "This is an opportunity for thousands of the victims of Hurricane Katrina to get back on their feet as they pick up the pieces and start anew. This Administration remains committed to filling the housing void in the Gulf Coast region and we will continue to work with our partners to help reunite families and provide hope and healing to those who need it most."
More details will follow.
Through FEMA's Individual and Households Program (IHP), DHS will process expedited transitional housing assistance for qualified homeowners and renters displaced by Hurricane Katrina. Because not all evacuees are eligible for assistance through the IHP program, displaced families, including formerly HUD assisted evacuees and those homeless prior to Hurricane Katrina will qualify for HUD's Housing Assistance Program.
Evacuees eligible for housing assistance through IHP will receive an initial three month rental assistance payment in the form of check or electronic fund transfer in the amount of $2,358. This initial payment is calculated based on the average fair market rent rate for a two-bedroom unit nationwide.
This payment is portable and may be applied to transitional housing costs for any location an evacuee determines. In addition to payment, eligible households will receive a letter describing specific program rules and guidelines on eligible uses of funds. IHP recipients have a legal obligation to meet document reporting requirements (such as submission of rental receipts) and each must comply with Federal program audit requirements. During the recertification process, FEMA may adjust the relevant fair market rate for the location and family size of each eligible household.
Housing assistance provided through the HUD's Katrina Disaster Housing Assistance Program will be administered through the established network of local public housing authorities (PHAs) across the country. Hargrove Engineering in a consultant the the PHA in Hamilton County Ohio. Through this program, relocation specialists will be on hand to assist individuals and families in locating a rental unit based on the needs of the family.
Eligible individuals and households may contact local housing authorities nationwide to participate in this program. Participants will receive housing assistance that can be redeemed for housing units in any community at the discretion of the participant. Rents will be calculated at 100 percent of the fair market rate in the community the evacuee chooses to relocate.
We plan to bring 100 families back to the uptown to live for the next 18 months and establish a domestic sister city relationship with them and their communities.
Yours in Christ

However, their execution was not set until May 1865, so they were able to argue the case after the Civil War. It was decided in the Supreme Court case Ex Parte Milligan 71 US 2 1866 that the suspension was unconstitutional because civilian courts were still operating, and the Constitution (according to the Court) only provided for suspension of habeas corpus if these courts are actually forced closed.
The International Emergency Economic Powers Act allows presidents to declare national emergencies for the purpose of freezing assets in which a foreign party has an interest, but these national emergencies are not states of emergency. President Franklin Roosevelt declared such an emergency with respect to gold in 1933, which apparently remained in force until 1978.
The Supreme Court ruling in Youngstown Sheet & Tube Co. v. Sawyer established that presidents may not act arbitrarily during an emergency.
On Saturday August 27th 2005, Louisiana Gov. Kathleen Babineaux Blanco (D) did request that President Bush "declare an emergency for the State of Louisiana due to Hurricane Katrina." The White House responded to Governor Blanco's request that same day (Saturday) by declaring the emergency and authorizing FEMA "to identify, mobilize, and provide at its discretion, equipment and resources necessary to alleviate the impacts of the emergency."

"Our goal is to use existing resources in an innovative way to help all displaced individuals and families move from temporary shelters to more stable, safe and sufficient housing," said Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff. "Through this coordinated effort, the Federal government is taking quick and immediate action to cut through red tape and deliver immediate assistance to evacuees."
"Today we are offering residents more than just a roof over their head," said HUD Secretary Alphonso Jackson. "This is an opportunity for thousands of the victims of Hurricane Katrina to get back on their feet as they pick up the pieces and start anew. This Administration remains committed to filling the housing void in the Gulf Coast region and we will continue to work with our partners to help reunite families and provide hope and healing to those who need it most."
More details will follow.
Through FEMA's Individual and Households Program (IHP), DHS will process expedited transitional housing assistance for qualified homeowners and renters displaced by Hurricane Katrina. Because not all evacuees are eligible for assistance through the IHP program, displaced families, including formerly HUD assisted evacuees and those homeless prior to Hurricane Katrina will qualify for HUD's Housing Assistance Program.
Evacuees eligible for housing assistance through IHP will receive an initial three month rental assistance payment in the form of check or electronic fund transfer in the amount of $2,358. This initial payment is calculated based on the average fair market rent rate for a two-bedroom unit nationwide.
This payment is portable and may be applied to transitional housing costs for any location an evacuee determines. In addition to payment, eligible households will receive a letter describing specific program rules and guidelines on eligible uses of funds. IHP recipients have a legal obligation to meet document reporting requirements (such as submission of rental receipts) and each must comply with Federal program audit requirements. During the recertification process, FEMA may adjust the relevant fair market rate for the location and family size of each eligible household.
Housing assistance provided through the HUD's Katrina Disaster Housing Assistance Program will be administered through the established network of local public housing authorities (PHAs) across the country. Hargrove Engineering in a consultant the the PHA in Hamilton County Ohio. Through this program, relocation specialists will be on hand to assist individuals and families in locating a rental unit based on the needs of the family.
Eligible individuals and households may contact local housing authorities nationwide to participate in this program. Participants will receive housing assistance that can be redeemed for housing units in any community at the discretion of the participant. Rents will be calculated at 100 percent of the fair market rate in the community the evacuee chooses to relocate.
We plan to bring 100 families back to the uptown to live for the next 18 months and establish a domestic sister city relationship with them and their communities.
Yours in Christ
