OK, I'll say it again, in a different way....
UPEC
U= Uniao (Untied)
P= Portuguesa (Portuguese)
(of the - not part of the acronyn)
E= Estado (State)
(of - not part of the acronym)
C= California

Uniao Portuguese da Estado de California (United Portuguese of the State of
California). UPEC. Take the capital letter of each of the Portuguese words
and there you go.

It's like a Portuguese fraternal society.
