Lunch with League -- Keeping the Lights On.
Remember the energy crisis when the lights went off in 2000? Norma Cobb, California Senator Joe Dunn's District Director, will provide an update on the California legislature's quest for the energy cure.
Senator Dunn chairs the Senate Committee investigating the 2000-01 crisis that led to blackouts and spiraling prices and recently called for a perjury probe of San Diego based Sempra Energy Trading who, according to Dunn, used Enron-like schemes to drive up electricity prices and then denied these practices to a Senate committee. Dunn says that dozens of other companies could also face charges.

League of Women Voters of California State Convention 2005.
Register by April 12th. Registration information and Program available on the League of Women Voters of California Members Only site or e-mail tagielow@comcast.net or crlucey@aol.com
COME TO ORANGE COUNTY in May for the LWVC Convention 2005!
Our theme is "It's a New World!"
CALIFORNIA'S NEW SECRETARY OF STATE, BRUCE MCPHERSON, WILL BE THE KEYNOTE SPEAKER AT THE SATURDAY EVENING BANQUET ON MAY 21 DURING THE CONVENTION.
OTHER HIGH POWERED SPEAKERS WILL INCLUDE CALIFORNIA COMMMON CAUSE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR KATHAY FENG AT THE FRIDAY LUNCHEON AND STATE SENATOR SHEILA KUEHL, SPONSOR OF THE SB840 HEALTH CARE BILL AT THE SATURDAY PLENARY SESSION.
While the LWV mission remains "the informed and active participation of citizens in government," there are new aspects of government to learn about as we work to achieve this mission. Our vision of the New World is:
_ Changing demographics with new ethnic and cultural diversity
_ Changing political issues and governmental policies
_ Emerging new technologies
_ New ways to get the facts and learn from the experts
_ New ways to practice and perpetuate democracy--the Web.
We will incorporate the theme, It's a New World, throughout the convention--music, decorations, speakers, and marketing. All five Leagues in Orange County--the ILO, North Orange County, Central Orange County Area, Orange Coast, Capistrano Bay Area--are ready to share their enthusiasm and excitement with all attendees. Orange County is the second most populous county in California, but in square miles is ninth smallest of the 58 California counties.
And there is more to Orange County than Disneyland. Orange County has world class beaches, educational institutions and shopping, such as Laguna Beach, University of California at Irvine, and South Coast Plaza. We will arrange tours to these sites, as well as to Bowers Museum, which is affiliated with the Smithsonian. Of course, Disneyland attractions are just next door, easily accessible on the area 'shuttle' for dining and amusement. Just let us know of your interests.
Our demographics range from the largest Vietnamese population outside of Vietnam, an historic Mexican population (Santa Ana), a contingent of American Indians in the San Juan Capistrano Mission area, to "Anglos" of all kinds. Our November ballot was printed in five languages.
University of California, Irvine (UCI) is famous for its high tech research--its faculty includes Nobel Prize Laureates, such as F. Sherwood Rowland, for Atmospheric Chemistry/ozone layer. Examples of other high tech applications can be found at UCI Medical School--Brain Imaging Center (research in mental disorders and dementia) and Beckman Laser Institute (research in the application of Laser technology to treat scars from burns and other traumas). Also located at UCI are branches of the U.C. Institute of Transportation Studies, and the California Public Policy Institute.
California State University, Fullerton, produces actors, song and dance stars, and baseball champions, as well as teachers, computer programmers, engineers, chemists, economists, nurses and pre-med graduates. Chapman University, in Orange, is famous for its Economic Forecasts. And--the first Community College in California is in Fullerton!
With all of this indigenous talent to draw upon, your Convention Planning Committee and the LWVC Board have assembled speakers and entertainment commensurate with a grand and glorious League event. It's a New World!
