I ran for Mayor to make Lawrence better because the families in thiscommunity work hard every day to raisea family run a business and build acommunity to try to improve their qualityof life For many years political inghting
unresponsive and irresponsible governmentstood in the way So for the last two yearswe have made hard decisions to change the
way things are done in Lawrence in order to be more responsive and responsible and toimprove the quality of life for all residentsIt is what the voters of Lawrence elected usto do We have worked to ght crime we
have disciplined bad employees including bad police ofcers we have forced tax
cheats to pay their taxes we have takenhard stances on land use matters wedefended the City against bad contractsand bad leases and we demand real changein the way our City does business Whenyou focus on this type of change thosewhose interests are negatively affected bythese actions (bad employees bad cops
tax cheats and unscrupulous landownerslooking to take advantage of the City) willght back against us and they most recently
did so by launching a recall effort to removeme as Mayor They do not want us to makeLawrence better
After almost three months of an effortto put Lawrence and the progress wehave made in the last two years on pausethat group of bad employees bad copstax cheats landowners looking to take
advantage of the City joined by CouncilorMaldonado and Councilor Almonte andeven former Mayor Willy Lantigua allin their effort to stop the progress havefailed in that effort The lies about myself personally and morally the lies about ouradministration and even the rumors of freeturkeys or cash for signatures did not helpthem in their negative agenda
While the Board of Registrars wasgiven a report that 4990 signatures wereveried we are certain that a majority of
these will not stand up to close scrutinyOnce we have the petitions in hand wewill begin to review them for forgery andfraud We have had many people cometo our ofce with experiences where the
people involved with the petitions lied andcajoled them into signing the recall We will be looking into this matter to insure that noonersquos rights were violated I encourage theCity Clerk to expedite the already week oldrequests for those documents Lastly we have not been perfect andwe have much left to do in our effort to
make Lawrence better However from the beginning of this effort it was clear to usthat this recall was not about my conduct personally or the way we have run thisgovernment This was an effort to stopdistract and take the focus off the realreforms that we have put in place The real
Me postuleacute para la Alcaldiacutea para hacerque Lawrence mejore porque las familiasde esta comunidad trabajan duro todos losdiacuteas para criar una familia un negocio yconstruir una comunidad para tratar de
mejorar su calidad de vida Durante muchosantildeos las luchas poliacuteticas internas ungobierno que no responde o es irresponsablelo preveniacutea Asiacute durante los uacuteltimos dosantildeos hemos tomado decisiones difiacutecilesde cambiar la forma de hacer las cosas enLawrence con el n de ser maacutes sensibles y
responsables y para mejorar la calidad devida de todos los residentes Es lo que losvotantes de Lawrence nos eligieron parahacer Hemos trabajado para combatirel crimen hemos disciplinado a malosempleados entre ellos policiacuteas maloshemos obligado a evasores de impuestosa pagar sus impuestos hemos tomado posiciones duras en asuntos del uso de
terrenos hemos defendido la ciudad contralos malos contratos y malos arrendamientosy exigimos un cambio real en la forma enque nuestra ciudad opera Cuando usted secentra en este tipo de cambio aquellos cuyosintereses se ven afectados negativamente por estas acciones (malos empleadosmalos policiacuteas evasores de impuestos yterratenientes sin escruacutepulos que buscanaprovecharse de la Ciudad) lucharaacuten contranosotros y recientemente lo hicieron con ellanzamiento de un esfuerzo de destitucioacuten para removerme como alcalde Ellos noquieren que mejoremos a Lawrence Despueacutes de casi tres meses de unesfuerzo por poner a Lawrence y el progreso

20 antildeos despueacutes
Probablemente usted se sorprendioacute luego de ver la primera paacutegina de estaedicioacuten Es una reacuteplica de nuestra primera publicacioacuten fechada 15 de mayode 1996
Hace 20 antildeos fuimos testigos y reportamos la reconstruccioacuten de Malden Mills Despueacutes de un devastador incendio el 11 de diciembre 1995 que destruyoacute la
mayor parte de la faacutebrica su propietario Aaron M Feuerstein sorprendioacute a su fuerzade trabajo y al mundo con su promesa de reconstruir y mantener a todos en la noacuteminadurante 90 diacuteas
En ese momento el Sr Feuerstein pudo haber cobrado el seguro jubilarsetrasladarse al paraiacuteso o a cualquier otro sitio y olvidarse de la empresa pero el sentildeorFeuerstein en sus propias palabras dijo que seguiraacute luchando por la conanza y la
lealtad mostrada por sus empleados durante esta tragedia para que no se rompanTodos tenemos mucho que agradecer especialmente yo dijo el Sr Feuerstein
A menudo me preguntan por queacute quiero quedarme en Lawrence y Methuen Aquiacutetengo la mejor fuerza laboral de toda la industria textilrdquo
Manteniendo su promesa Malden Mills fue reconstruida en una faacutebrica con losuacuteltimos adelantos pero con una deuda por las nubes de $140 millones Despueacutes queel Sr Feuerstein se declaroacute en quiebra la faacutebrica pasoacute a manos de GE Capital ydespueacutes a los propietarios actuales Versa Capital
El 10 de diciembre de este antildeo Versa Capital hizo el anuncio de que trasladaraacute la produccioacuten a una planta recientemente adquirida en Tennessee y por esa razoacuten unos
200 empleados en Lawrence perderaacuten sus puestos de trabajoEsta noticia molestoacute al Alcalde de Lawrence Daniel Rivera quien dijo que hacedos semanas se le informoacute que la compra de la planta de Tennessee era solo unaexpansioacuten y ahora se da cuenta de que se le ha mentido Mirando hacia atraacutes tal vez la altruista decisioacuten del Sr Feuerstein de mantenera los empleados con sueldo durante tanto tiempo mientras que la reconstruccioacuten sellevaba a cabo dictoacute el futuro de Malden Mills
Eacutel como uacutenico propietario pudo hacer lo que hizo por sus trabajadoresUna empresa en su lugar piensa primero en sus inversionistas los trabajadores
son fungibles
20 years later
Probably you were surprised after seeing this editionrsquos front page Itrsquos a replicaof our rst publication circa May 15th 1996
20 years ago we witnessed and reported the rebuilding of Malden MillsAfter a devastating re in December 11 1995 that destroyed most of the factory
its owner Aaron M Feuerstein surprised his labor force and the world with his promise to rebuild and keep everybody on payroll for 90 days At the time Mr Feuerstein could cash the insurance retired move to paradise orany other place and forget about the business but Mr Feuerstein in his own wordssaid that he will continue ghting for the trust and loyalty shown by his employees
during this tragedy not to be brokenWe all have much to be grateful for particularly me said Mr Feuerstein I
am often asked why I want to stay in Lawrence and Methuen I have here the bestworkforce in the entire textile industry Keeping his promise Malden Mills was rebuilt into a state-of-the-artmanufacturing marvel but with a skyrocketing debt of $140 million After ling for
bankruptcy Mr Feuerstein lost the company to GE Capital who later was taken over by the actual owners Versa Capital On December 10 of this year Versa Capital made the announcement that it willmove the production to a recently acquired plant in Tennessee and for that reasonsome 200 Lawrence employees will lose their jobs This news upset Lawrence Mayor Daniel Rivera who said that two weeks agohe was informed that the purchase of the Tennessee plant was an expansion and nowhe nd that he has been lied to
Looking back perhaps Mr Feuersteinrsquos altruistic decision to keep employeeswith salary for so long while rebuilding dictated the future of Malden Mills As a sole proprietor he could do what he did A company thinks of its investors rst the workers are expendable

en que hemos ejecutado este gobierno Estefue un esfuerzo por detener distraer y quitarel enfoque de las reformas reales que hemos puesto en marcha Lo que realmente estas personas queriacutean revocar era el progreso dela Ciudad no quieren que Lawrence mejoreCuanto maacutes caos hay en Lawrence y cuantomaacutes nos centramos en las luchas internas ylas traiciones maacutes faacutecil es para los malosempleados malos policiacuteas evasores deimpuestos y los propietarios de tierrassin escruacutepulos que buscan aprovecharsede la Ciudad Por cada diacutea que tenemos el
caos las empresas de nuestra ciudad losresidentes en todos nuestros barrios y losnintildeos en nuestras escuelas pierden El uacutenico benecio que buscaban en esta agenda fea

Asiacute que voy a reiterar que nuncahemos dejado de hacer las decisionesdifiacuteciles que hacen que la calidad de vidade todos mejore hacer que el gobierno de laCiudad de Lawrence maacutes profesional maacutesresponsable y sensible Fuimos elegidos para hacer un trabajo estamos enfocadosen hacer ese trabajo y planeamos ver esetrabajo llegar a su nal
thing these people wanted to recall was theCityrsquos progress they donrsquot want Lawrenceto get better The more there is chaos inLawrence and the more we are focused oninghting and back biting the easier it is
for bad employees bad cops tax cheatsand unscrupulous land owners looking totake advantage of the City For every daythat we have chaos the businesses of ourcity the residents in all our neighborhoodsand the kids in our schools lose The only benet they sought in this ugly agenda was
to benet themselves and they failed at it
So I will reiterate we have never stopped
making the tough decisions that makeeveryonersquos quality of life better makingLawrence City government more professional more responsible andresponsive We were elected to do a job weare focused on doing that job and we fully plan to see that job through

Auacuten hay quien piensa que internet vino
a revolucionar o maacutes bien a amenazar al
periodismo Pero a la vista de lo que hay hay
que concluir que lo que el periodismo necesita
para revitalizarse son contenidos de calidad
ya que si ya en su diacutea se pensoacute que la radio iba
a desbancar el perioacutedico y despueacutes lo mismo
pasoacute con la televisioacuten nada de eso ocurrioacute
Asiacute que es de suponer que lo deinternet hoy tambieacuten sea una etapa maacutesde transicioacuten que llevaraacute a los auteacutenticos periodistas a reconvertirse ya que unainformacioacuten de calidad se impone porquees la calidad la que permite competir no elsensacionalismo
El periodismo hoy
El periodismo del bueno tiene queactuar como un contrapoder expresar conlibertad y no ser condescendientes con los poderosos aunque sean esos poderes susanunciantes y por tanto sus sostenedores El periodismo bueno tiene que hacer por dentro una revolucioacuten para tener fuerzaaunque no genere una gran rentabilidad porque el benecio no puede ser a corto
plazo Los periodistas hoy tienen que sercapaces de analizar en profundidad lascosas antes de comunicarlas ya que nointeresa una avalancha de informacioacutensino la informacioacuten veraz bien analizada yexplicada en su contexto
Mientras maacutes lascosas cambian maacutesse quedan igual Los nuacutemeros nales del Recall nos
sorprendieron a todos se recogieron 8022rmas Al liderazgo se le dijo que las
certicaciones se haraacuten antes del 16 de
diciembre sin embargo el Departamentode Elecciones certicoacute 4990 de ellas en un
tiempo reacutecord el viernes 10 El liderazgodel revocatorio estaacute desconcertado yentiendo por queacute Esta es la ocina que en
el informe de Kopelman y Paige identicoacute
numerosos errores la mala administracioacuteny la desorganizacioacuten Estos consultoresencontraron que el departamento electoralde Lawrence manejoacute mal el proceso de laselecciones de 2014 La rma criticoacute a la Ciudad de la
falta de organizacioacuten y la educacioacutenadecuada de los trabajadores electoralesde Lawrence Hicieron recomendacioacuten deque Rivera despidiera a Rafael Tejeda Enel informe de Kopelman y Paige aparecennumerosas violaciones de las elecciones ylos procedimientos que no fueron seguidosEsta empresa presentoacute el Departamento
de Elecciones como un departamento en
ruinas y en un caos total Este informe documenta la falta decustodia adecuada de los votos la faltade seguridad de las urnas el material quese almacena dentro de cajas abultadasalegaron que el Departamento deElecciones permitioacute el acceso puacuteblico ala boacuteveda donde se guardaban los votosen la jornada electoral boletas ausentesfueron enviadas a los lugares de votacioacutenequivocados votos por correo no fueroncontados en la noche electoral y el manejoinadecuado de los votos por correo boletas provisionales y numerosos otros desafiacuteosEso fue en el antildeo 2014 Ahora es 2015 este departamento noha cambiado mucho y puedo entender la
preocupacioacuten de liderazgo con respecto al proceso de no ser imparcial y justo No esninguna sorpresa para miacute que no pudieronencontrar maacutes de tres mil electores que hansido acusados de inadecuado y mal manejode las boletas antes Ellos no contaron las papeletas en la noche de las elecciones iquestporqueacute nosotros el puacuteblico hemos de creer querevisaron maacutes de 8000 rmas en menos de
una semana Si es cierto que miraron cadarma esto se hizo en menos de 30 segundos
por cada rma iexclIMPOSIBLE
Nosotros los contribuyentes deLawrence merecemos un mejor serviciosin importar si usted estaacute a favor o encontra de la revocacioacuten El momento maacutesatroz para miacute fue cuando leiacute en la paacutegina deFacebook del personal de Rivera dando aentender que ya habiacutean ganado el esfuerzode destitucioacuten O coacutemo los nuacutemeros sesabiacutean en la comunidad cuando se suponiacuteaque este proceso sea un proceso muycondencial

Como alcalde y residente de Lawrenceestoy conmocionado y entristecido quePolartec ha hecho el anuncio que hicieronhoy Casi 200 familias de Lawrence se veraacutenafectadas por este cierre y es especialmentedecepcionante escuchar de estos planes eldiacutea antes del 20 aniversario del histoacutericofuego en la faacutebrica Es auacuten maacutes preocupanteque el CEO de Polartec Gary Smith noentregara este mensaje por siacute mismo Siento que los trabajadores y yo fuimosengantildeados porque hace apenas un mesdespueacutes de comprar un negocio similar enTennessee Polartec nos aseguroacute (la Unioacuteny yo) que no iban a hacer exactamente loque estaacuten haciendo en la actualidad Losgobiernos federales estatales y municipaleshicieron un compromiso a largo plazo paralos trabajos de fabricacioacuten en Polartec Esosignicaba que cada vez que Polartec teniacutea
una necesidad o un problema nos traeriacutea a
todos a la mesa para encontrar una forma deavanzar Eso no ocurrioacute en esta ocasioacuten Estoy llamando al CEO Gary Smith para asistir o auspiciar una reunioacuten conmigoy el Alcalde Zanni las delegacionesestatales y federales y representantes de laocina del gobernador para discutir coacutemo

ldquoAs the Mayor and resident ofLawrence I am shocked and saddenedthat Polartec has made the announcementthey did today Almost 200 Lawrencefamilies will be affected by this closureand it is especially disappointing to hearof this development the day before 20 yearanniversary of the historic mill re It is
further troubling that the CEO of PolartecGary Smith did not deliver this messagehimself
I feel that the workers and I were
deceived because just one month ago upon purchasing a similar business in TennesseePolartec reassured us (the Union and I) thatthey would not do exactly what they aredoing today The federal state and citygovernments made a long term commitmentto the manufacturing jobs at Polartec Thatmeant that whenever Polartec had a need oran issue they would bring us all to the tabletogether to gure out a way forward That
did not happen this timeI am calling for CEO Gary Smith
to attend or host a meeting with myselfand Mayor Zanni the State amp Federaldelegations and representatives of theGovernorrsquos ofce to discuss how they came
to this decision and what we can do to ght
for every job to stay in Lawrence Theclose to 200 jobs that will be lost throughthis process is not something Lawrence canaccept
Polartecrsquos brand has becomesynonymous with the concept that theirhigh quality products are made by a greatworkforce and that they have and woulddo anything for that workforce This actioncuts against their brand
Lastly it should be known thatLawrence is no stranger to times like theseIf this closure happens it will be a serious blow to the city we have been knockeddown before but the city and its peopleare resilient and we will get back up and persevere

will be done by December 16th howeverthe Election Department certied 4990 of
them in record time by Friday the 10th Therecall leadership is bafed and I understand
why This is the ofce that by Kopelman and
Paigersquos report identied numerous mistakes
bad management and disorganization Thisconsultant found that the election departmentof Lawrence mishandled the process of the2014 elections
The firm criticized the City ofLawrencersquos lack of organization andadequate education of election workersThey made recommendation that Riverared Rafael Tejeda The Kopelman and Paige
report listed numerous election violationsand procedures not being followed Thiscompany portrayed the Election Departmentas a department in shambles and in totalchaos
This report documented the lack ofadequate custody for ballots lack of ballot box security material being stored insideoverstuffed boxes they claimed that theElection Department allowed the publicaccess to the vault where ballots were beingheld on Election Day absentee ballots weresent to the wrong polling places absentee ballots not counted on election night andimproper handling of absentee ballots provisional ballots and numerous of otherchallenges That was year 2014 Now is 2015 not much has changed
in this department and I can understand therecall leadership preoccupation with the
process being fair and just It is no surpriseto me that they couldnrsquot find over threethousand voters they have been accused ofimproper and mishandling of ballots beforeThey didnrsquot count ballots on election nightwhy would we the public believe that theychecked over 8000 signatures in less thana week If in fact they ldquolookedrdquo at eachsignature this was done in less than 30 second
per signature IMPOSSIBLE
We the taxpayers of Lawrence deserve better service regardless whether you arecon or pro the recall The most egregiousmoment for me was when I read in theFacebook page of Riverasrsquos staff hintingthat they have won over the recall effort Or
how the numbers were out in the communitywhen this process was supposed to be a verycondential process
How can we believe in this departmentwith the kind of leaks that were releasedto the community Where is the integrityin the process For godrsquos sake I knew thenumbers before the numbers were made public Although the mayor red Tejeda
hired two of his friends and claimed tohave re structured the department nothinghas really changed This department is stilla mess and Friday conrmed it
The real fun begins now that the Boardof Registrars met on Monday December14 to certify the 4990 signatures that wereveried by the Election Department By
Wednesday at five orsquoclock both groupshave the option to file their objectionsMayor Rivera already said that he wantsan investigation on forgery and fraud eventhough at this point hersquos winning

There are those who think that the
internet came to revolutionize or rather
threaten journalism But in view of what it
is one must conclude that what journalism
needs is to revitalize itself are quality content
as if already at the time it was thought that
radio would unseat the newspaper and then
so did the TV nothing like that happened
So presumably that Internet todayalso is a stage of transition that will leadto genuine journalists to retrain becausequality information is imposed it is the
Journalism todayquality that can compete not sensationalism
The good journalism has to act as a
counter to express freely and not be complacent
with the powerful whether those powers are
advertisers and therefore its supporters
Good journalism has to do a revolutionfrom inside for strength even if it does notgenerate a prot because the benet cannot
be short term Journalists today have to beable to analyze things in depth before theyare communicated and not interested ina ood of information but truthful well
analyzed and explained information

Nadie estaacute inmune a los peligrosde la inuenza o lo que comuacutenmente se
conoce como la ldquogripardquo El antildeo pasado
en su reporte de febrero el Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten y EnfermedadesRespiratorias de los Centros para el Controly Prevencioacuten de Enfermedades (CDC)informoacute que el 61 de los maacutes afectadosfueron personas entre 18 y 64 antildeos de edad Con el anterior reporte el CDCdeshizo el mito de que soacutelo los nintildeos o las personas de la tercera edad son proclives aser afectados por el virus de la inuenza
Asimismo en ese mismo antildeo en la ciudadde Santa Ana una mujer en plenitud de su juventud a los 28 antildeos fallecioacute a causa deuna gripa croacutenica El deceso de esta persona llama muchola atencioacuten pero no es un caso aislado Lo
cierto es que situaciones como eacutesta han idoincrementando con el correr del tiempo Sitomamos en cuenta un periodo de 30 antildeos ndash
entre 1976 y 2006mdash los registros de muertea causa de la inuenza incrementaron desde
3000 a 49000 personas
iquestQueacute es lo que quiere decir el datoanterior Muy simple La inuenza es
una mal que no discrimina el color de lagente el sexo ni mucho menos la edad delas personas En un momento dado todos podemos ser viacutectimas si es que no tomamoslas medidas precautorias para contrarrestareste mal De todo el conjunto de personas quevivimos en los Estados Unidos a menudolas personas con bajos recursos econoacutemicosson los maacutes afectados y los maacutes propensosa tener siacutentomas de inuenza croacutenica
Lamentablemente algunos sectores de la poblacioacuten latina han tenido que soportarlos embates de la inuenza antildeo-tras-antildeo
debido a que en sus comunidades hay pocos programas de concientizacioacuten e informacioacutensobre los peligros de la inuenza Algunos
ni siquiera se enteran de que una vacuna puede ser el arma ideal para abatirla
De acuerdo a los datos del Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten del antildeo anteriorsolo 443 de los nintildeos latinos de seis
meses o mayores fueron vacunados contrala inuenza mientras que en la poblacioacuten
afroamericana es 438 A pesar de que
485 de los nintildeos anglosajones fueronvacunados este dato todaviacutea estaacute pordebajo de las metas establecidas por elgobierno nacional Las disparidades de vacunados entreuno y otro grupo eacutetnico es maacutes visibleen las poblaciones adultas 387 de los
afroamericanos fue vacunado en tanto quelos latinos de 350 y los anglosajones
467 Estos indicadores estadiacutesticos puedesrevertirse si tomamos conciencia denuestra salud Lo maacutes importante es
reconocer que todos somos potencialesviacutectimas de la inuenza Cuanto maacutes
precauciones tomemos y maacutes medidasaplicamos en nuestro diario vivir menores la probabilidad de enfermarnos con unagripa La Dra Anne Schuchat directoradel Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten yEnfermedades Respiratorias del CDC ysubdirectora general del Servicio de SaludPuacuteblica de los Estados Unidos dice que lamayor actividad del virus de la inuenza

I ran for Mayor to make Lawrence better because the families in thiscommunity work hard every day to raisea family run a business and build acommunity to try to improve their qualityof life For many years political inghting
unresponsive and irresponsible governmentstood in the way So for the last two yearswe have made hard decisions to change the
way things are done in Lawrence in order to be more responsive and responsible and toimprove the quality of life for all residentsIt is what the voters of Lawrence elected usto do We have worked to ght crime we
have disciplined bad employees including bad police ofcers we have forced tax
cheats to pay their taxes we have takenhard stances on land use matters wedefended the City against bad contractsand bad leases and we demand real changein the way our City does business Whenyou focus on this type of change thosewhose interests are negatively affected bythese actions (bad employees bad cops
tax cheats and unscrupulous landownerslooking to take advantage of the City) willght back against us and they most recently
did so by launching a recall effort to removeme as Mayor They do not want us to makeLawrence better
After almost three months of an effortto put Lawrence and the progress wehave made in the last two years on pausethat group of bad employees bad copstax cheats landowners looking to take
advantage of the City joined by CouncilorMaldonado and Councilor Almonte andeven former Mayor Willy Lantigua allin their effort to stop the progress havefailed in that effort The lies about myself personally and morally the lies about ouradministration and even the rumors of freeturkeys or cash for signatures did not helpthem in their negative agenda
While the Board of Registrars wasgiven a report that 4990 signatures wereveried we are certain that a majority of
these will not stand up to close scrutinyOnce we have the petitions in hand wewill begin to review them for forgery andfraud We have had many people cometo our ofce with experiences where the
people involved with the petitions lied andcajoled them into signing the recall We will be looking into this matter to insure that noonersquos rights were violated I encourage theCity Clerk to expedite the already week oldrequests for those documents Lastly we have not been perfect andwe have much left to do in our effort to
make Lawrence better However from the beginning of this effort it was clear to usthat this recall was not about my conduct personally or the way we have run thisgovernment This was an effort to stopdistract and take the focus off the realreforms that we have put in place The real

20 antildeos despueacutes
Probablemente usted se sorprendioacute luego de ver la primera paacutegina de estaedicioacuten Es una reacuteplica de nuestra primera publicacioacuten fechada 15 de mayode 1996
Hace 20 antildeos fuimos testigos y reportamos la reconstruccioacuten de Malden Mills Despueacutes de un devastador incendio el 11 de diciembre 1995 que destruyoacute la
mayor parte de la faacutebrica su propietario Aaron M Feuerstein sorprendioacute a su fuerzade trabajo y al mundo con su promesa de reconstruir y mantener a todos en la noacuteminadurante 90 diacuteas
En ese momento el Sr Feuerstein pudo haber cobrado el seguro jubilarsetrasladarse al paraiacuteso o a cualquier otro sitio y olvidarse de la empresa pero el sentildeorFeuerstein en sus propias palabras dijo que seguiraacute luchando por la conanza y la
lealtad mostrada por sus empleados durante esta tragedia para que no se rompanTodos tenemos mucho que agradecer especialmente yo dijo el Sr Feuerstein
A menudo me preguntan por queacute quiero quedarme en Lawrence y Methuen Aquiacutetengo la mejor fuerza laboral de toda la industria textilrdquo
Manteniendo su promesa Malden Mills fue reconstruida en una faacutebrica con losuacuteltimos adelantos pero con una deuda por las nubes de $140 millones Despueacutes queel Sr Feuerstein se declaroacute en quiebra la faacutebrica pasoacute a manos de GE Capital ydespueacutes a los propietarios actuales Versa Capital
El 10 de diciembre de este antildeo Versa Capital hizo el anuncio de que trasladaraacute la produccioacuten a una planta recientemente adquirida en Tennessee y por esa razoacuten unos
200 empleados en Lawrence perderaacuten sus puestos de trabajoEsta noticia molestoacute al Alcalde de Lawrence Daniel Rivera quien dijo que hacedos semanas se le informoacute que la compra de la planta de Tennessee era solo unaexpansioacuten y ahora se da cuenta de que se le ha mentido Mirando hacia atraacutes tal vez la altruista decisioacuten del Sr Feuerstein de mantenera los empleados con sueldo durante tanto tiempo mientras que la reconstruccioacuten sellevaba a cabo dictoacute el futuro de Malden Mills
Eacutel como uacutenico propietario pudo hacer lo que hizo por sus trabajadoresUna empresa en su lugar piensa primero en sus inversionistas los trabajadores
son fungibles
20 years later
Probably you were surprised after seeing this editionrsquos front page Itrsquos a replicaof our rst publication circa May 15th 1996
20 years ago we witnessed and reported the rebuilding of Malden MillsAfter a devastating re in December 11 1995 that destroyed most of the factory
its owner Aaron M Feuerstein surprised his labor force and the world with his promise to rebuild and keep everybody on payroll for 90 days At the time Mr Feuerstein could cash the insurance retired move to paradise orany other place and forget about the business but Mr Feuerstein in his own wordssaid that he will continue ghting for the trust and loyalty shown by his employees
during this tragedy not to be brokenWe all have much to be grateful for particularly me said Mr Feuerstein I
am often asked why I want to stay in Lawrence and Methuen I have here the bestworkforce in the entire textile industry Keeping his promise Malden Mills was rebuilt into a state-of-the-artmanufacturing marvel but with a skyrocketing debt of $140 million After ling for
bankruptcy Mr Feuerstein lost the company to GE Capital who later was taken over by the actual owners Versa Capital On December 10 of this year Versa Capital made the announcement that it willmove the production to a recently acquired plant in Tennessee and for that reasonsome 200 Lawrence employees will lose their jobs This news upset Lawrence Mayor Daniel Rivera who said that two weeks agohe was informed that the purchase of the Tennessee plant was an expansion and nowhe nd that he has been lied to
Looking back perhaps Mr Feuersteinrsquos altruistic decision to keep employeeswith salary for so long while rebuilding dictated the future of Malden Mills As a sole proprietor he could do what he did A company thinks of its investors rst the workers are expendable

Auacuten hay quien piensa que internet vino
a revolucionar o maacutes bien a amenazar al
periodismo Pero a la vista de lo que hay hay
que concluir que lo que el periodismo necesita
para revitalizarse son contenidos de calidad
ya que si ya en su diacutea se pensoacute que la radio iba
a desbancar el perioacutedico y despueacutes lo mismo
pasoacute con la televisioacuten nada de eso ocurrioacute
Asiacute que es de suponer que lo deinternet hoy tambieacuten sea una etapa maacutesde transicioacuten que llevaraacute a los auteacutenticos periodistas a reconvertirse ya que unainformacioacuten de calidad se impone porquees la calidad la que permite competir no elsensacionalismo
El periodismo hoy
El periodismo del bueno tiene queactuar como un contrapoder expresar conlibertad y no ser condescendientes con los poderosos aunque sean esos poderes susanunciantes y por tanto sus sostenedores El periodismo bueno tiene que hacer por dentro una revolucioacuten para tener fuerzaaunque no genere una gran rentabilidad porque el benecio no puede ser a corto
plazo Los periodistas hoy tienen que sercapaces de analizar en profundidad lascosas antes de comunicarlas ya que nointeresa una avalancha de informacioacutensino la informacioacuten veraz bien analizada yexplicada en su contexto
Mientras maacutes lascosas cambian maacutesse quedan igual Los nuacutemeros nales del Recall nos
sorprendieron a todos se recogieron 8022rmas Al liderazgo se le dijo que las
certicaciones se haraacuten antes del 16 de
diciembre sin embargo el Departamentode Elecciones certicoacute 4990 de ellas en un
tiempo reacutecord el viernes 10 El liderazgodel revocatorio estaacute desconcertado yentiendo por queacute Esta es la ocina que en
el informe de Kopelman y Paige identicoacute
numerosos errores la mala administracioacuteny la desorganizacioacuten Estos consultoresencontraron que el departamento electoralde Lawrence manejoacute mal el proceso de laselecciones de 2014 La rma criticoacute a la Ciudad de la

de Elecciones como un departamento en
ruinas y en un caos total Este informe documenta la falta decustodia adecuada de los votos la faltade seguridad de las urnas el material quese almacena dentro de cajas abultadasalegaron que el Departamento deElecciones permitioacute el acceso puacuteblico ala boacuteveda donde se guardaban los votosen la jornada electoral boletas ausentesfueron enviadas a los lugares de votacioacutenequivocados votos por correo no fueroncontados en la noche electoral y el manejoinadecuado de los votos por correo boletas provisionales y numerosos otros desafiacuteosEso fue en el antildeo 2014 Ahora es 2015 este departamento noha cambiado mucho y puedo entender la
preocupacioacuten de liderazgo con respecto al proceso de no ser imparcial y justo No esninguna sorpresa para miacute que no pudieronencontrar maacutes de tres mil electores que hansido acusados de inadecuado y mal manejode las boletas antes Ellos no contaron las papeletas en la noche de las elecciones iquestporqueacute nosotros el puacuteblico hemos de creer querevisaron maacutes de 8000 rmas en menos de

Nosotros los contribuyentes deLawrence merecemos un mejor serviciosin importar si usted estaacute a favor o encontra de la revocacioacuten El momento maacutesatroz para miacute fue cuando leiacute en la paacutegina deFacebook del personal de Rivera dando aentender que ya habiacutean ganado el esfuerzode destitucioacuten O coacutemo los nuacutemeros sesabiacutean en la comunidad cuando se suponiacuteaque este proceso sea un proceso muycondencial

Como alcalde y residente de Lawrenceestoy conmocionado y entristecido quePolartec ha hecho el anuncio que hicieronhoy Casi 200 familias de Lawrence se veraacutenafectadas por este cierre y es especialmentedecepcionante escuchar de estos planes eldiacutea antes del 20 aniversario del histoacutericofuego en la faacutebrica Es auacuten maacutes preocupanteque el CEO de Polartec Gary Smith noentregara este mensaje por siacute mismo Siento que los trabajadores y yo fuimosengantildeados porque hace apenas un mesdespueacutes de comprar un negocio similar enTennessee Polartec nos aseguroacute (la Unioacuteny yo) que no iban a hacer exactamente loque estaacuten haciendo en la actualidad Losgobiernos federales estatales y municipaleshicieron un compromiso a largo plazo paralos trabajos de fabricacioacuten en Polartec Esosignicaba que cada vez que Polartec teniacutea
una necesidad o un problema nos traeriacutea a
todos a la mesa para encontrar una forma deavanzar Eso no ocurrioacute en esta ocasioacuten Estoy llamando al CEO Gary Smith para asistir o auspiciar una reunioacuten conmigoy el Alcalde Zanni las delegacionesestatales y federales y representantes de laocina del gobernador para discutir coacutemo
llegaron a esta decisioacuten y lo que puedenhacer para luchar por cada puesto de trabajo para quedarse en Lawrence El cierre de200 puestos de trabajo que se perderaacuten eneste proceso no es algo que Lawrence puedeaceptar
La marca de Polartec se ha convertidoen sinoacutenimo de la idea de que sus productosde alta calidad son realizados por una granfuerza de trabajo y que ellos tienen y hariacuteancualquier cosa por esa fuerza laboral Estaaccioacuten perjudica su marca Por uacuteltimo es necesario que sepan queLawrence no es ajena a situaciones comoesta Si este cierre ocurre seraacute un duro golpe para la ciudad hemos sido derribados antes pero la ciudad y su gente son resistentes ynos levantaremos y perseveraremos
ldquoAs the Mayor and resident ofLawrence I am shocked and saddenedthat Polartec has made the announcementthey did today Almost 200 Lawrencefamilies will be affected by this closureand it is especially disappointing to hearof this development the day before 20 yearanniversary of the historic mill re It is
further troubling that the CEO of PolartecGary Smith did not deliver this messagehimself
I feel that the workers and I were
deceived because just one month ago upon purchasing a similar business in TennesseePolartec reassured us (the Union and I) thatthey would not do exactly what they aredoing today The federal state and citygovernments made a long term commitmentto the manufacturing jobs at Polartec Thatmeant that whenever Polartec had a need oran issue they would bring us all to the tabletogether to gure out a way forward That
did not happen this timeI am calling for CEO Gary Smith
to attend or host a meeting with myselfand Mayor Zanni the State amp Federaldelegations and representatives of theGovernorrsquos ofce to discuss how they came
to this decision and what we can do to ght
for every job to stay in Lawrence Theclose to 200 jobs that will be lost throughthis process is not something Lawrence canaccept
Polartecrsquos brand has becomesynonymous with the concept that theirhigh quality products are made by a greatworkforce and that they have and woulddo anything for that workforce This actioncuts against their brand
Lastly it should be known thatLawrence is no stranger to times like theseIf this closure happens it will be a serious blow to the city we have been knockeddown before but the city and its peopleare resilient and we will get back up and persevere

The more things
change the morethey stay the same The Recall nal numbers surprised us
all 8022 signatures were collected Theleadership was told that the certications
will be done by December 16th howeverthe Election Department certied 4990 of
them in record time by Friday the 10th Therecall leadership is bafed and I understand
why This is the ofce that by Kopelman and
Paigersquos report identied numerous mistakes
bad management and disorganization Thisconsultant found that the election departmentof Lawrence mishandled the process of the2014 elections
The firm criticized the City ofLawrencersquos lack of organization andadequate education of election workersThey made recommendation that Riverared Rafael Tejeda The Kopelman and Paige
report listed numerous election violationsand procedures not being followed Thiscompany portrayed the Election Departmentas a department in shambles and in totalchaos
This report documented the lack ofadequate custody for ballots lack of ballot box security material being stored insideoverstuffed boxes they claimed that theElection Department allowed the publicaccess to the vault where ballots were beingheld on Election Day absentee ballots weresent to the wrong polling places absentee ballots not counted on election night andimproper handling of absentee ballots provisional ballots and numerous of otherchallenges That was year 2014 Now is 2015 not much has changed
in this department and I can understand therecall leadership preoccupation with the
process being fair and just It is no surpriseto me that they couldnrsquot find over threethousand voters they have been accused ofimproper and mishandling of ballots beforeThey didnrsquot count ballots on election nightwhy would we the public believe that theychecked over 8000 signatures in less thana week If in fact they ldquolookedrdquo at eachsignature this was done in less than 30 second
per signature IMPOSSIBLE
We the taxpayers of Lawrence deserve better service regardless whether you arecon or pro the recall The most egregiousmoment for me was when I read in theFacebook page of Riverasrsquos staff hintingthat they have won over the recall effort Or
how the numbers were out in the communitywhen this process was supposed to be a verycondential process
How can we believe in this departmentwith the kind of leaks that were releasedto the community Where is the integrityin the process For godrsquos sake I knew thenumbers before the numbers were made public Although the mayor red Tejeda
hired two of his friends and claimed tohave re structured the department nothinghas really changed This department is stilla mess and Friday conrmed it
The real fun begins now that the Boardof Registrars met on Monday December14 to certify the 4990 signatures that wereveried by the Election Department By
Wednesday at five orsquoclock both groupshave the option to file their objectionsMayor Rivera already said that he wantsan investigation on forgery and fraud eventhough at this point hersquos winning

There are those who think that the
internet came to revolutionize or rather
threaten journalism But in view of what it
is one must conclude that what journalism
needs is to revitalize itself are quality content
as if already at the time it was thought that
radio would unseat the newspaper and then
so did the TV nothing like that happened
So presumably that Internet todayalso is a stage of transition that will leadto genuine journalists to retrain becausequality information is imposed it is the
Journalism todayquality that can compete not sensationalism
The good journalism has to act as a
counter to express freely and not be complacent
with the powerful whether those powers are
advertisers and therefore its supporters
Good journalism has to do a revolutionfrom inside for strength even if it does notgenerate a prot because the benet cannot
be short term Journalists today have to beable to analyze things in depth before theyare communicated and not interested ina ood of information but truthful well
analyzed and explained information

Nadie estaacute inmune a los peligrosde la inuenza o lo que comuacutenmente se
conoce como la ldquogripardquo El antildeo pasado
en su reporte de febrero el Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten y EnfermedadesRespiratorias de los Centros para el Controly Prevencioacuten de Enfermedades (CDC)informoacute que el 61 de los maacutes afectadosfueron personas entre 18 y 64 antildeos de edad Con el anterior reporte el CDCdeshizo el mito de que soacutelo los nintildeos o las personas de la tercera edad son proclives aser afectados por el virus de la inuenza
Asimismo en ese mismo antildeo en la ciudadde Santa Ana una mujer en plenitud de su juventud a los 28 antildeos fallecioacute a causa deuna gripa croacutenica El deceso de esta persona llama muchola atencioacuten pero no es un caso aislado Lo
cierto es que situaciones como eacutesta han idoincrementando con el correr del tiempo Sitomamos en cuenta un periodo de 30 antildeos ndash
entre 1976 y 2006mdash los registros de muertea causa de la inuenza incrementaron desde
3000 a 49000 personas
iquestQueacute es lo que quiere decir el datoanterior Muy simple La inuenza es
una mal que no discrimina el color de lagente el sexo ni mucho menos la edad delas personas En un momento dado todos podemos ser viacutectimas si es que no tomamoslas medidas precautorias para contrarrestareste mal De todo el conjunto de personas quevivimos en los Estados Unidos a menudolas personas con bajos recursos econoacutemicosson los maacutes afectados y los maacutes propensosa tener siacutentomas de inuenza croacutenica
Lamentablemente algunos sectores de la poblacioacuten latina han tenido que soportarlos embates de la inuenza antildeo-tras-antildeo
debido a que en sus comunidades hay pocos programas de concientizacioacuten e informacioacutensobre los peligros de la inuenza Algunos
ni siquiera se enteran de que una vacuna puede ser el arma ideal para abatirla
De acuerdo a los datos del Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten del antildeo anteriorsolo 443 de los nintildeos latinos de seis
meses o mayores fueron vacunados contrala inuenza mientras que en la poblacioacuten
afroamericana es 438 A pesar de que
485 de los nintildeos anglosajones fueronvacunados este dato todaviacutea estaacute pordebajo de las metas establecidas por elgobierno nacional Las disparidades de vacunados entreuno y otro grupo eacutetnico es maacutes visibleen las poblaciones adultas 387 de los
afroamericanos fue vacunado en tanto quelos latinos de 350 y los anglosajones
467 Estos indicadores estadiacutesticos puedesrevertirse si tomamos conciencia denuestra salud Lo maacutes importante es
reconocer que todos somos potencialesviacutectimas de la inuenza Cuanto maacutes
precauciones tomemos y maacutes medidasaplicamos en nuestro diario vivir menores la probabilidad de enfermarnos con unagripa La Dra Anne Schuchat directoradel Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten yEnfermedades Respiratorias del CDC ysubdirectora general del Servicio de SaludPuacuteblica de los Estados Unidos dice que lamayor actividad del virus de la inuenza

Como alcalde y residente de Lawrenceestoy conmocionado y entristecido quePolartec ha hecho el anuncio que hicieronhoy Casi 200 familias de Lawrence se veraacutenafectadas por este cierre y es especialmentedecepcionante escuchar de estos planes eldiacutea antes del 20 aniversario del histoacutericofuego en la faacutebrica Es auacuten maacutes preocupanteque el CEO de Polartec Gary Smith noentregara este mensaje por siacute mismo Siento que los trabajadores y yo fuimosengantildeados porque hace apenas un mesdespueacutes de comprar un negocio similar enTennessee Polartec nos aseguroacute (la Unioacuteny yo) que no iban a hacer exactamente loque estaacuten haciendo en la actualidad Losgobiernos federales estatales y municipaleshicieron un compromiso a largo plazo paralos trabajos de fabricacioacuten en Polartec Esosignicaba que cada vez que Polartec teniacutea

llegaron a esta decisioacuten y lo que puedenhacer para luchar por cada puesto de trabajo para quedarse en Lawrence El cierre de200 puestos de trabajo que se perderaacuten eneste proceso no es algo que Lawrence puedeaceptar
La marca de Polartec se ha convertidoen sinoacutenimo de la idea de que sus productosde alta calidad son realizados por una granfuerza de trabajo y que ellos tienen y hariacuteancualquier cosa por esa fuerza laboral Estaaccioacuten perjudica su marca Por uacuteltimo es necesario que sepan queLawrence no es ajena a situaciones comoesta Si este cierre ocurre seraacute un duro golpe para la ciudad hemos sido derribados antes pero la ciudad y su gente son resistentes ynos levantaremos y perseveraremos
ldquoAs the Mayor and resident ofLawrence I am shocked and saddenedthat Polartec has made the announcementthey did today Almost 200 Lawrencefamilies will be affected by this closureand it is especially disappointing to hearof this development the day before 20 yearanniversary of the historic mill re It is
further troubling that the CEO of PolartecGary Smith did not deliver this messagehimself
I feel that the workers and I were
deceived because just one month ago upon purchasing a similar business in TennesseePolartec reassured us (the Union and I) thatthey would not do exactly what they aredoing today The federal state and citygovernments made a long term commitmentto the manufacturing jobs at Polartec Thatmeant that whenever Polartec had a need oran issue they would bring us all to the tabletogether to gure out a way forward That
did not happen this timeI am calling for CEO Gary Smith
to attend or host a meeting with myselfand Mayor Zanni the State amp Federaldelegations and representatives of theGovernorrsquos ofce to discuss how they came
to this decision and what we can do to ght
for every job to stay in Lawrence Theclose to 200 jobs that will be lost throughthis process is not something Lawrence canaccept
Polartecrsquos brand has becomesynonymous with the concept that theirhigh quality products are made by a greatworkforce and that they have and woulddo anything for that workforce This actioncuts against their brand
Lastly it should be known thatLawrence is no stranger to times like theseIf this closure happens it will be a serious blow to the city we have been knockeddown before but the city and its peopleare resilient and we will get back up and persevere

The more things
change the morethey stay the same The Recall nal numbers surprised us
all 8022 signatures were collected Theleadership was told that the certications
will be done by December 16th howeverthe Election Department certied 4990 of
them in record time by Friday the 10th Therecall leadership is bafed and I understand
why This is the ofce that by Kopelman and
Paigersquos report identied numerous mistakes
bad management and disorganization Thisconsultant found that the election departmentof Lawrence mishandled the process of the2014 elections
The firm criticized the City ofLawrencersquos lack of organization andadequate education of election workersThey made recommendation that Riverared Rafael Tejeda The Kopelman and Paige
report listed numerous election violationsand procedures not being followed Thiscompany portrayed the Election Departmentas a department in shambles and in totalchaos
This report documented the lack ofadequate custody for ballots lack of ballot box security material being stored insideoverstuffed boxes they claimed that theElection Department allowed the publicaccess to the vault where ballots were beingheld on Election Day absentee ballots weresent to the wrong polling places absentee ballots not counted on election night andimproper handling of absentee ballots provisional ballots and numerous of otherchallenges That was year 2014 Now is 2015 not much has changed
in this department and I can understand therecall leadership preoccupation with the
process being fair and just It is no surpriseto me that they couldnrsquot find over threethousand voters they have been accused ofimproper and mishandling of ballots beforeThey didnrsquot count ballots on election nightwhy would we the public believe that theychecked over 8000 signatures in less thana week If in fact they ldquolookedrdquo at eachsignature this was done in less than 30 second
per signature IMPOSSIBLE
We the taxpayers of Lawrence deserve better service regardless whether you arecon or pro the recall The most egregiousmoment for me was when I read in theFacebook page of Riverasrsquos staff hintingthat they have won over the recall effort Or
how the numbers were out in the communitywhen this process was supposed to be a verycondential process
How can we believe in this departmentwith the kind of leaks that were releasedto the community Where is the integrityin the process For godrsquos sake I knew thenumbers before the numbers were made public Although the mayor red Tejeda
hired two of his friends and claimed tohave re structured the department nothinghas really changed This department is stilla mess and Friday conrmed it
The real fun begins now that the Boardof Registrars met on Monday December14 to certify the 4990 signatures that wereveried by the Election Department By
Wednesday at five orsquoclock both groupshave the option to file their objectionsMayor Rivera already said that he wantsan investigation on forgery and fraud eventhough at this point hersquos winning

There are those who think that the
internet came to revolutionize or rather
threaten journalism But in view of what it
is one must conclude that what journalism
needs is to revitalize itself are quality content
as if already at the time it was thought that
radio would unseat the newspaper and then
so did the TV nothing like that happened
So presumably that Internet todayalso is a stage of transition that will leadto genuine journalists to retrain becausequality information is imposed it is the
Journalism todayquality that can compete not sensationalism
The good journalism has to act as a
counter to express freely and not be complacent
with the powerful whether those powers are
advertisers and therefore its supporters
Good journalism has to do a revolutionfrom inside for strength even if it does notgenerate a prot because the benet cannot
be short term Journalists today have to beable to analyze things in depth before theyare communicated and not interested ina ood of information but truthful well
analyzed and explained information

Nadie estaacute inmune a los peligrosde la inuenza o lo que comuacutenmente se
conoce como la ldquogripardquo El antildeo pasado
en su reporte de febrero el Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten y EnfermedadesRespiratorias de los Centros para el Controly Prevencioacuten de Enfermedades (CDC)informoacute que el 61 de los maacutes afectadosfueron personas entre 18 y 64 antildeos de edad Con el anterior reporte el CDCdeshizo el mito de que soacutelo los nintildeos o las personas de la tercera edad son proclives aser afectados por el virus de la inuenza
Asimismo en ese mismo antildeo en la ciudadde Santa Ana una mujer en plenitud de su juventud a los 28 antildeos fallecioacute a causa deuna gripa croacutenica El deceso de esta persona llama muchola atencioacuten pero no es un caso aislado Lo
cierto es que situaciones como eacutesta han idoincrementando con el correr del tiempo Sitomamos en cuenta un periodo de 30 antildeos ndash
entre 1976 y 2006mdash los registros de muertea causa de la inuenza incrementaron desde
3000 a 49000 personas
iquestQueacute es lo que quiere decir el datoanterior Muy simple La inuenza es
una mal que no discrimina el color de lagente el sexo ni mucho menos la edad delas personas En un momento dado todos podemos ser viacutectimas si es que no tomamoslas medidas precautorias para contrarrestareste mal De todo el conjunto de personas quevivimos en los Estados Unidos a menudolas personas con bajos recursos econoacutemicosson los maacutes afectados y los maacutes propensosa tener siacutentomas de inuenza croacutenica
Lamentablemente algunos sectores de la poblacioacuten latina han tenido que soportarlos embates de la inuenza antildeo-tras-antildeo
debido a que en sus comunidades hay pocos programas de concientizacioacuten e informacioacutensobre los peligros de la inuenza Algunos
ni siquiera se enteran de que una vacuna puede ser el arma ideal para abatirla
De acuerdo a los datos del Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten del antildeo anteriorsolo 443 de los nintildeos latinos de seis
meses o mayores fueron vacunados contrala inuenza mientras que en la poblacioacuten
afroamericana es 438 A pesar de que
485 de los nintildeos anglosajones fueronvacunados este dato todaviacutea estaacute pordebajo de las metas establecidas por elgobierno nacional Las disparidades de vacunados entreuno y otro grupo eacutetnico es maacutes visibleen las poblaciones adultas 387 de los
afroamericanos fue vacunado en tanto quelos latinos de 350 y los anglosajones
467 Estos indicadores estadiacutesticos puedesrevertirse si tomamos conciencia denuestra salud Lo maacutes importante es
reconocer que todos somos potencialesviacutectimas de la inuenza Cuanto maacutes
precauciones tomemos y maacutes medidasaplicamos en nuestro diario vivir menores la probabilidad de enfermarnos con unagripa La Dra Anne Schuchat directoradel Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten yEnfermedades Respiratorias del CDC ysubdirectora general del Servicio de SaludPuacuteblica de los Estados Unidos dice que lamayor actividad del virus de la inuenza

Como alcalde y residente de Lawrenceestoy conmocionado y entristecido quePolartec ha hecho el anuncio que hicieronhoy Casi 200 familias de Lawrence se veraacutenafectadas por este cierre y es especialmentedecepcionante escuchar de estos planes eldiacutea antes del 20 aniversario del histoacutericofuego en la faacutebrica Es auacuten maacutes preocupanteque el CEO de Polartec Gary Smith noentregara este mensaje por siacute mismo Siento que los trabajadores y yo fuimosengantildeados porque hace apenas un mesdespueacutes de comprar un negocio similar enTennessee Polartec nos aseguroacute (la Unioacuteny yo) que no iban a hacer exactamente loque estaacuten haciendo en la actualidad Losgobiernos federales estatales y municipaleshicieron un compromiso a largo plazo paralos trabajos de fabricacioacuten en Polartec Esosignicaba que cada vez que Polartec teniacutea
una necesidad o un problema nos traeriacutea a
todos a la mesa para encontrar una forma deavanzar Eso no ocurrioacute en esta ocasioacuten Estoy llamando al CEO Gary Smith para asistir o auspiciar una reunioacuten conmigoy el Alcalde Zanni las delegacionesestatales y federales y representantes de laocina del gobernador para discutir coacutemo
llegaron a esta decisioacuten y lo que puedenhacer para luchar por cada puesto de trabajo para quedarse en Lawrence El cierre de200 puestos de trabajo que se perderaacuten eneste proceso no es algo que Lawrence puedeaceptar
La marca de Polartec se ha convertidoen sinoacutenimo de la idea de que sus productosde alta calidad son realizados por una granfuerza de trabajo y que ellos tienen y hariacuteancualquier cosa por esa fuerza laboral Estaaccioacuten perjudica su marca Por uacuteltimo es necesario que sepan queLawrence no es ajena a situaciones comoesta Si este cierre ocurre seraacute un duro golpe para la ciudad hemos sido derribados antes pero la ciudad y su gente son resistentes ynos levantaremos y perseveraremos
ldquoAs the Mayor and resident ofLawrence I am shocked and saddenedthat Polartec has made the announcementthey did today Almost 200 Lawrencefamilies will be affected by this closureand it is especially disappointing to hearof this development the day before 20 yearanniversary of the historic mill re It is
further troubling that the CEO of PolartecGary Smith did not deliver this messagehimself
I feel that the workers and I were
deceived because just one month ago upon purchasing a similar business in TennesseePolartec reassured us (the Union and I) thatthey would not do exactly what they aredoing today The federal state and citygovernments made a long term commitmentto the manufacturing jobs at Polartec Thatmeant that whenever Polartec had a need oran issue they would bring us all to the tabletogether to gure out a way forward That
did not happen this timeI am calling for CEO Gary Smith
to attend or host a meeting with myselfand Mayor Zanni the State amp Federaldelegations and representatives of theGovernorrsquos ofce to discuss how they came
to this decision and what we can do to ght
for every job to stay in Lawrence Theclose to 200 jobs that will be lost throughthis process is not something Lawrence canaccept
Polartecrsquos brand has becomesynonymous with the concept that theirhigh quality products are made by a greatworkforce and that they have and woulddo anything for that workforce This actioncuts against their brand
Lastly it should be known thatLawrence is no stranger to times like theseIf this closure happens it will be a serious blow to the city we have been knockeddown before but the city and its peopleare resilient and we will get back up and persevere

The more things
change the morethey stay the same The Recall nal numbers surprised us
all 8022 signatures were collected Theleadership was told that the certications
will be done by December 16th howeverthe Election Department certied 4990 of
them in record time by Friday the 10th Therecall leadership is bafed and I understand
why This is the ofce that by Kopelman and
Paigersquos report identied numerous mistakes
bad management and disorganization Thisconsultant found that the election departmentof Lawrence mishandled the process of the2014 elections
The firm criticized the City ofLawrencersquos lack of organization andadequate education of election workersThey made recommendation that Riverared Rafael Tejeda The Kopelman and Paige
report listed numerous election violationsand procedures not being followed Thiscompany portrayed the Election Departmentas a department in shambles and in totalchaos
This report documented the lack ofadequate custody for ballots lack of ballot box security material being stored insideoverstuffed boxes they claimed that theElection Department allowed the publicaccess to the vault where ballots were beingheld on Election Day absentee ballots weresent to the wrong polling places absentee ballots not counted on election night andimproper handling of absentee ballots provisional ballots and numerous of otherchallenges That was year 2014 Now is 2015 not much has changed
in this department and I can understand therecall leadership preoccupation with the
process being fair and just It is no surpriseto me that they couldnrsquot find over threethousand voters they have been accused ofimproper and mishandling of ballots beforeThey didnrsquot count ballots on election nightwhy would we the public believe that theychecked over 8000 signatures in less thana week If in fact they ldquolookedrdquo at eachsignature this was done in less than 30 second
per signature IMPOSSIBLE
We the taxpayers of Lawrence deserve better service regardless whether you arecon or pro the recall The most egregiousmoment for me was when I read in theFacebook page of Riverasrsquos staff hintingthat they have won over the recall effort Or
how the numbers were out in the communitywhen this process was supposed to be a verycondential process
How can we believe in this departmentwith the kind of leaks that were releasedto the community Where is the integrityin the process For godrsquos sake I knew thenumbers before the numbers were made public Although the mayor red Tejeda
hired two of his friends and claimed tohave re structured the department nothinghas really changed This department is stilla mess and Friday conrmed it
The real fun begins now that the Boardof Registrars met on Monday December14 to certify the 4990 signatures that wereveried by the Election Department By
Wednesday at five orsquoclock both groupshave the option to file their objectionsMayor Rivera already said that he wantsan investigation on forgery and fraud eventhough at this point hersquos winning

There are those who think that the
internet came to revolutionize or rather
threaten journalism But in view of what it
is one must conclude that what journalism
needs is to revitalize itself are quality content
as if already at the time it was thought that
radio would unseat the newspaper and then
so did the TV nothing like that happened
So presumably that Internet todayalso is a stage of transition that will leadto genuine journalists to retrain becausequality information is imposed it is the
Journalism todayquality that can compete not sensationalism
The good journalism has to act as a
counter to express freely and not be complacent
with the powerful whether those powers are
advertisers and therefore its supporters
Good journalism has to do a revolutionfrom inside for strength even if it does notgenerate a prot because the benet cannot
be short term Journalists today have to beable to analyze things in depth before theyare communicated and not interested ina ood of information but truthful well
analyzed and explained information

Nadie estaacute inmune a los peligrosde la inuenza o lo que comuacutenmente se
conoce como la ldquogripardquo El antildeo pasado
en su reporte de febrero el Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten y EnfermedadesRespiratorias de los Centros para el Controly Prevencioacuten de Enfermedades (CDC)informoacute que el 61 de los maacutes afectadosfueron personas entre 18 y 64 antildeos de edad Con el anterior reporte el CDCdeshizo el mito de que soacutelo los nintildeos o las personas de la tercera edad son proclives aser afectados por el virus de la inuenza
Asimismo en ese mismo antildeo en la ciudadde Santa Ana una mujer en plenitud de su juventud a los 28 antildeos fallecioacute a causa deuna gripa croacutenica El deceso de esta persona llama muchola atencioacuten pero no es un caso aislado Lo
cierto es que situaciones como eacutesta han idoincrementando con el correr del tiempo Sitomamos en cuenta un periodo de 30 antildeos ndash
entre 1976 y 2006mdash los registros de muertea causa de la inuenza incrementaron desde
3000 a 49000 personas
iquestQueacute es lo que quiere decir el datoanterior Muy simple La inuenza es
una mal que no discrimina el color de lagente el sexo ni mucho menos la edad delas personas En un momento dado todos podemos ser viacutectimas si es que no tomamoslas medidas precautorias para contrarrestareste mal De todo el conjunto de personas quevivimos en los Estados Unidos a menudolas personas con bajos recursos econoacutemicosson los maacutes afectados y los maacutes propensosa tener siacutentomas de inuenza croacutenica
Lamentablemente algunos sectores de la poblacioacuten latina han tenido que soportarlos embates de la inuenza antildeo-tras-antildeo
debido a que en sus comunidades hay pocos programas de concientizacioacuten e informacioacutensobre los peligros de la inuenza Algunos
ni siquiera se enteran de que una vacuna puede ser el arma ideal para abatirla
De acuerdo a los datos del Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten del antildeo anteriorsolo 443 de los nintildeos latinos de seis
meses o mayores fueron vacunados contrala inuenza mientras que en la poblacioacuten
afroamericana es 438 A pesar de que
485 de los nintildeos anglosajones fueronvacunados este dato todaviacutea estaacute pordebajo de las metas establecidas por elgobierno nacional Las disparidades de vacunados entreuno y otro grupo eacutetnico es maacutes visibleen las poblaciones adultas 387 de los
afroamericanos fue vacunado en tanto quelos latinos de 350 y los anglosajones
467 Estos indicadores estadiacutesticos puedesrevertirse si tomamos conciencia denuestra salud Lo maacutes importante es
reconocer que todos somos potencialesviacutectimas de la inuenza Cuanto maacutes
precauciones tomemos y maacutes medidasaplicamos en nuestro diario vivir menores la probabilidad de enfermarnos con unagripa La Dra Anne Schuchat directoradel Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten yEnfermedades Respiratorias del CDC ysubdirectora general del Servicio de SaludPuacuteblica de los Estados Unidos dice que lamayor actividad del virus de la inuenza

Como alcalde y residente de Lawrenceestoy conmocionado y entristecido quePolartec ha hecho el anuncio que hicieronhoy Casi 200 familias de Lawrence se veraacutenafectadas por este cierre y es especialmentedecepcionante escuchar de estos planes eldiacutea antes del 20 aniversario del histoacutericofuego en la faacutebrica Es auacuten maacutes preocupanteque el CEO de Polartec Gary Smith noentregara este mensaje por siacute mismo Siento que los trabajadores y yo fuimosengantildeados porque hace apenas un mesdespueacutes de comprar un negocio similar enTennessee Polartec nos aseguroacute (la Unioacuteny yo) que no iban a hacer exactamente loque estaacuten haciendo en la actualidad Losgobiernos federales estatales y municipaleshicieron un compromiso a largo plazo paralos trabajos de fabricacioacuten en Polartec Esosignicaba que cada vez que Polartec teniacutea
una necesidad o un problema nos traeriacutea a
todos a la mesa para encontrar una forma deavanzar Eso no ocurrioacute en esta ocasioacuten Estoy llamando al CEO Gary Smith para asistir o auspiciar una reunioacuten conmigoy el Alcalde Zanni las delegacionesestatales y federales y representantes de laocina del gobernador para discutir coacutemo
llegaron a esta decisioacuten y lo que puedenhacer para luchar por cada puesto de trabajo para quedarse en Lawrence El cierre de200 puestos de trabajo que se perderaacuten eneste proceso no es algo que Lawrence puedeaceptar
La marca de Polartec se ha convertidoen sinoacutenimo de la idea de que sus productosde alta calidad son realizados por una granfuerza de trabajo y que ellos tienen y hariacuteancualquier cosa por esa fuerza laboral Estaaccioacuten perjudica su marca Por uacuteltimo es necesario que sepan queLawrence no es ajena a situaciones comoesta Si este cierre ocurre seraacute un duro golpe para la ciudad hemos sido derribados antes pero la ciudad y su gente son resistentes ynos levantaremos y perseveraremos
ldquoAs the Mayor and resident ofLawrence I am shocked and saddenedthat Polartec has made the announcementthey did today Almost 200 Lawrencefamilies will be affected by this closureand it is especially disappointing to hearof this development the day before 20 yearanniversary of the historic mill re It is
further troubling that the CEO of PolartecGary Smith did not deliver this messagehimself
I feel that the workers and I were
deceived because just one month ago upon purchasing a similar business in TennesseePolartec reassured us (the Union and I) thatthey would not do exactly what they aredoing today The federal state and citygovernments made a long term commitmentto the manufacturing jobs at Polartec Thatmeant that whenever Polartec had a need oran issue they would bring us all to the tabletogether to gure out a way forward That
did not happen this timeI am calling for CEO Gary Smith
to attend or host a meeting with myselfand Mayor Zanni the State amp Federaldelegations and representatives of theGovernorrsquos ofce to discuss how they came
to this decision and what we can do to ght
for every job to stay in Lawrence Theclose to 200 jobs that will be lost throughthis process is not something Lawrence canaccept
Polartecrsquos brand has becomesynonymous with the concept that theirhigh quality products are made by a greatworkforce and that they have and woulddo anything for that workforce This actioncuts against their brand
Lastly it should be known thatLawrence is no stranger to times like theseIf this closure happens it will be a serious blow to the city we have been knockeddown before but the city and its peopleare resilient and we will get back up and persevere

The more things
change the morethey stay the same The Recall nal numbers surprised us
all 8022 signatures were collected Theleadership was told that the certications
will be done by December 16th howeverthe Election Department certied 4990 of
them in record time by Friday the 10th Therecall leadership is bafed and I understand
why This is the ofce that by Kopelman and
Paigersquos report identied numerous mistakes
bad management and disorganization Thisconsultant found that the election departmentof Lawrence mishandled the process of the2014 elections
The firm criticized the City ofLawrencersquos lack of organization andadequate education of election workersThey made recommendation that Riverared Rafael Tejeda The Kopelman and Paige
report listed numerous election violationsand procedures not being followed Thiscompany portrayed the Election Departmentas a department in shambles and in totalchaos
This report documented the lack ofadequate custody for ballots lack of ballot box security material being stored insideoverstuffed boxes they claimed that theElection Department allowed the publicaccess to the vault where ballots were beingheld on Election Day absentee ballots weresent to the wrong polling places absentee ballots not counted on election night andimproper handling of absentee ballots provisional ballots and numerous of otherchallenges That was year 2014 Now is 2015 not much has changed
in this department and I can understand therecall leadership preoccupation with the
process being fair and just It is no surpriseto me that they couldnrsquot find over threethousand voters they have been accused ofimproper and mishandling of ballots beforeThey didnrsquot count ballots on election nightwhy would we the public believe that theychecked over 8000 signatures in less thana week If in fact they ldquolookedrdquo at eachsignature this was done in less than 30 second
per signature IMPOSSIBLE
We the taxpayers of Lawrence deserve better service regardless whether you arecon or pro the recall The most egregiousmoment for me was when I read in theFacebook page of Riverasrsquos staff hintingthat they have won over the recall effort Or
how the numbers were out in the communitywhen this process was supposed to be a verycondential process
How can we believe in this departmentwith the kind of leaks that were releasedto the community Where is the integrityin the process For godrsquos sake I knew thenumbers before the numbers were made public Although the mayor red Tejeda
hired two of his friends and claimed tohave re structured the department nothinghas really changed This department is stilla mess and Friday conrmed it
The real fun begins now that the Boardof Registrars met on Monday December14 to certify the 4990 signatures that wereveried by the Election Department By
Wednesday at five orsquoclock both groupshave the option to file their objectionsMayor Rivera already said that he wantsan investigation on forgery and fraud eventhough at this point hersquos winning

There are those who think that the
internet came to revolutionize or rather
threaten journalism But in view of what it
is one must conclude that what journalism
needs is to revitalize itself are quality content
as if already at the time it was thought that
radio would unseat the newspaper and then
so did the TV nothing like that happened
So presumably that Internet todayalso is a stage of transition that will leadto genuine journalists to retrain becausequality information is imposed it is the
Journalism todayquality that can compete not sensationalism
The good journalism has to act as a
counter to express freely and not be complacent
with the powerful whether those powers are
advertisers and therefore its supporters
Good journalism has to do a revolutionfrom inside for strength even if it does notgenerate a prot because the benet cannot
be short term Journalists today have to beable to analyze things in depth before theyare communicated and not interested ina ood of information but truthful well
analyzed and explained information

Nadie estaacute inmune a los peligrosde la inuenza o lo que comuacutenmente se
conoce como la ldquogripardquo El antildeo pasado
en su reporte de febrero el Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten y EnfermedadesRespiratorias de los Centros para el Controly Prevencioacuten de Enfermedades (CDC)informoacute que el 61 de los maacutes afectadosfueron personas entre 18 y 64 antildeos de edad Con el anterior reporte el CDCdeshizo el mito de que soacutelo los nintildeos o las personas de la tercera edad son proclives aser afectados por el virus de la inuenza
Asimismo en ese mismo antildeo en la ciudadde Santa Ana una mujer en plenitud de su juventud a los 28 antildeos fallecioacute a causa deuna gripa croacutenica El deceso de esta persona llama muchola atencioacuten pero no es un caso aislado Lo
cierto es que situaciones como eacutesta han idoincrementando con el correr del tiempo Sitomamos en cuenta un periodo de 30 antildeos ndash
entre 1976 y 2006mdash los registros de muertea causa de la inuenza incrementaron desde
3000 a 49000 personas
iquestQueacute es lo que quiere decir el datoanterior Muy simple La inuenza es
una mal que no discrimina el color de lagente el sexo ni mucho menos la edad delas personas En un momento dado todos podemos ser viacutectimas si es que no tomamoslas medidas precautorias para contrarrestareste mal De todo el conjunto de personas quevivimos en los Estados Unidos a menudolas personas con bajos recursos econoacutemicosson los maacutes afectados y los maacutes propensosa tener siacutentomas de inuenza croacutenica
Lamentablemente algunos sectores de la poblacioacuten latina han tenido que soportarlos embates de la inuenza antildeo-tras-antildeo
debido a que en sus comunidades hay pocos programas de concientizacioacuten e informacioacutensobre los peligros de la inuenza Algunos
ni siquiera se enteran de que una vacuna puede ser el arma ideal para abatirla
De acuerdo a los datos del Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten del antildeo anteriorsolo 443 de los nintildeos latinos de seis
meses o mayores fueron vacunados contrala inuenza mientras que en la poblacioacuten
afroamericana es 438 A pesar de que
485 de los nintildeos anglosajones fueronvacunados este dato todaviacutea estaacute pordebajo de las metas establecidas por elgobierno nacional Las disparidades de vacunados entreuno y otro grupo eacutetnico es maacutes visibleen las poblaciones adultas 387 de los
afroamericanos fue vacunado en tanto quelos latinos de 350 y los anglosajones
467 Estos indicadores estadiacutesticos puedesrevertirse si tomamos conciencia denuestra salud Lo maacutes importante es
reconocer que todos somos potencialesviacutectimas de la inuenza Cuanto maacutes
precauciones tomemos y maacutes medidasaplicamos en nuestro diario vivir menores la probabilidad de enfermarnos con unagripa La Dra Anne Schuchat directoradel Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten yEnfermedades Respiratorias del CDC ysubdirectora general del Servicio de SaludPuacuteblica de los Estados Unidos dice que lamayor actividad del virus de la inuenza
se maniesta en las estas de Navidad y
Antildeo Nuevo entre diciembre y febrero Deacuerdo a sus estudios el problema puedeincluso durar hasta mayo En este sentido diversas organizacionesnacionales como el CDC estaacuten en plenacampantildea contra el virus de la inuenza

Como alcalde y residente de Lawrenceestoy conmocionado y entristecido quePolartec ha hecho el anuncio que hicieronhoy Casi 200 familias de Lawrence se veraacutenafectadas por este cierre y es especialmentedecepcionante escuchar de estos planes eldiacutea antes del 20 aniversario del histoacutericofuego en la faacutebrica Es auacuten maacutes preocupanteque el CEO de Polartec Gary Smith noentregara este mensaje por siacute mismo Siento que los trabajadores y yo fuimosengantildeados porque hace apenas un mesdespueacutes de comprar un negocio similar enTennessee Polartec nos aseguroacute (la Unioacuteny yo) que no iban a hacer exactamente loque estaacuten haciendo en la actualidad Losgobiernos federales estatales y municipaleshicieron un compromiso a largo plazo paralos trabajos de fabricacioacuten en Polartec Esosignicaba que cada vez que Polartec teniacutea
una necesidad o un problema nos traeriacutea a
todos a la mesa para encontrar una forma deavanzar Eso no ocurrioacute en esta ocasioacuten Estoy llamando al CEO Gary Smith para asistir o auspiciar una reunioacuten conmigoy el Alcalde Zanni las delegacionesestatales y federales y representantes de laocina del gobernador para discutir coacutemo
llegaron a esta decisioacuten y lo que puedenhacer para luchar por cada puesto de trabajo para quedarse en Lawrence El cierre de200 puestos de trabajo que se perderaacuten eneste proceso no es algo que Lawrence puedeaceptar
La marca de Polartec se ha convertidoen sinoacutenimo de la idea de que sus productosde alta calidad son realizados por una granfuerza de trabajo y que ellos tienen y hariacuteancualquier cosa por esa fuerza laboral Estaaccioacuten perjudica su marca Por uacuteltimo es necesario que sepan queLawrence no es ajena a situaciones comoesta Si este cierre ocurre seraacute un duro golpe para la ciudad hemos sido derribados antes pero la ciudad y su gente son resistentes ynos levantaremos y perseveraremos
ldquoAs the Mayor and resident ofLawrence I am shocked and saddenedthat Polartec has made the announcementthey did today Almost 200 Lawrencefamilies will be affected by this closureand it is especially disappointing to hearof this development the day before 20 yearanniversary of the historic mill re It is
further troubling that the CEO of PolartecGary Smith did not deliver this messagehimself
I feel that the workers and I were
deceived because just one month ago upon purchasing a similar business in TennesseePolartec reassured us (the Union and I) thatthey would not do exactly what they aredoing today The federal state and citygovernments made a long term commitmentto the manufacturing jobs at Polartec Thatmeant that whenever Polartec had a need oran issue they would bring us all to the tabletogether to gure out a way forward That
did not happen this timeI am calling for CEO Gary Smith
to attend or host a meeting with myselfand Mayor Zanni the State amp Federaldelegations and representatives of theGovernorrsquos ofce to discuss how they came
to this decision and what we can do to ght
for every job to stay in Lawrence Theclose to 200 jobs that will be lost throughthis process is not something Lawrence canaccept
Polartecrsquos brand has becomesynonymous with the concept that theirhigh quality products are made by a greatworkforce and that they have and woulddo anything for that workforce This actioncuts against their brand
Lastly it should be known thatLawrence is no stranger to times like theseIf this closure happens it will be a serious blow to the city we have been knockeddown before but the city and its peopleare resilient and we will get back up and persevere

The more things
change the morethey stay the same The Recall nal numbers surprised us
all 8022 signatures were collected Theleadership was told that the certications
will be done by December 16th howeverthe Election Department certied 4990 of
them in record time by Friday the 10th Therecall leadership is bafed and I understand
why This is the ofce that by Kopelman and
Paigersquos report identied numerous mistakes
bad management and disorganization Thisconsultant found that the election departmentof Lawrence mishandled the process of the2014 elections
The firm criticized the City ofLawrencersquos lack of organization andadequate education of election workersThey made recommendation that Riverared Rafael Tejeda The Kopelman and Paige
report listed numerous election violationsand procedures not being followed Thiscompany portrayed the Election Departmentas a department in shambles and in totalchaos
This report documented the lack ofadequate custody for ballots lack of ballot box security material being stored insideoverstuffed boxes they claimed that theElection Department allowed the publicaccess to the vault where ballots were beingheld on Election Day absentee ballots weresent to the wrong polling places absentee ballots not counted on election night andimproper handling of absentee ballots provisional ballots and numerous of otherchallenges That was year 2014 Now is 2015 not much has changed
in this department and I can understand therecall leadership preoccupation with the
process being fair and just It is no surpriseto me that they couldnrsquot find over threethousand voters they have been accused ofimproper and mishandling of ballots beforeThey didnrsquot count ballots on election nightwhy would we the public believe that theychecked over 8000 signatures in less thana week If in fact they ldquolookedrdquo at eachsignature this was done in less than 30 second
per signature IMPOSSIBLE
We the taxpayers of Lawrence deserve better service regardless whether you arecon or pro the recall The most egregiousmoment for me was when I read in theFacebook page of Riverasrsquos staff hintingthat they have won over the recall effort Or
how the numbers were out in the communitywhen this process was supposed to be a verycondential process
How can we believe in this departmentwith the kind of leaks that were releasedto the community Where is the integrityin the process For godrsquos sake I knew thenumbers before the numbers were made public Although the mayor red Tejeda
hired two of his friends and claimed tohave re structured the department nothinghas really changed This department is stilla mess and Friday conrmed it
The real fun begins now that the Boardof Registrars met on Monday December14 to certify the 4990 signatures that wereveried by the Election Department By
Wednesday at five orsquoclock both groupshave the option to file their objectionsMayor Rivera already said that he wantsan investigation on forgery and fraud eventhough at this point hersquos winning

There are those who think that the
internet came to revolutionize or rather
threaten journalism But in view of what it
is one must conclude that what journalism
needs is to revitalize itself are quality content
as if already at the time it was thought that
radio would unseat the newspaper and then
so did the TV nothing like that happened
So presumably that Internet todayalso is a stage of transition that will leadto genuine journalists to retrain becausequality information is imposed it is the
Journalism todayquality that can compete not sensationalism
The good journalism has to act as a
counter to express freely and not be complacent
with the powerful whether those powers are
advertisers and therefore its supporters
Good journalism has to do a revolutionfrom inside for strength even if it does notgenerate a prot because the benet cannot
be short term Journalists today have to beable to analyze things in depth before theyare communicated and not interested ina ood of information but truthful well
analyzed and explained information

Nadie estaacute inmune a los peligrosde la inuenza o lo que comuacutenmente se
conoce como la ldquogripardquo El antildeo pasado
en su reporte de febrero el Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten y EnfermedadesRespiratorias de los Centros para el Controly Prevencioacuten de Enfermedades (CDC)informoacute que el 61 de los maacutes afectadosfueron personas entre 18 y 64 antildeos de edad Con el anterior reporte el CDCdeshizo el mito de que soacutelo los nintildeos o las personas de la tercera edad son proclives aser afectados por el virus de la inuenza
Asimismo en ese mismo antildeo en la ciudadde Santa Ana una mujer en plenitud de su juventud a los 28 antildeos fallecioacute a causa deuna gripa croacutenica El deceso de esta persona llama muchola atencioacuten pero no es un caso aislado Lo
cierto es que situaciones como eacutesta han idoincrementando con el correr del tiempo Sitomamos en cuenta un periodo de 30 antildeos ndash
entre 1976 y 2006mdash los registros de muertea causa de la inuenza incrementaron desde
3000 a 49000 personas
iquestQueacute es lo que quiere decir el datoanterior Muy simple La inuenza es
una mal que no discrimina el color de lagente el sexo ni mucho menos la edad delas personas En un momento dado todos podemos ser viacutectimas si es que no tomamoslas medidas precautorias para contrarrestareste mal De todo el conjunto de personas quevivimos en los Estados Unidos a menudolas personas con bajos recursos econoacutemicosson los maacutes afectados y los maacutes propensosa tener siacutentomas de inuenza croacutenica
Lamentablemente algunos sectores de la poblacioacuten latina han tenido que soportarlos embates de la inuenza antildeo-tras-antildeo
debido a que en sus comunidades hay pocos programas de concientizacioacuten e informacioacutensobre los peligros de la inuenza Algunos
ni siquiera se enteran de que una vacuna puede ser el arma ideal para abatirla
De acuerdo a los datos del Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten del antildeo anteriorsolo 443 de los nintildeos latinos de seis
meses o mayores fueron vacunados contrala inuenza mientras que en la poblacioacuten
afroamericana es 438 A pesar de que
485 de los nintildeos anglosajones fueronvacunados este dato todaviacutea estaacute pordebajo de las metas establecidas por elgobierno nacional Las disparidades de vacunados entreuno y otro grupo eacutetnico es maacutes visibleen las poblaciones adultas 387 de los
afroamericanos fue vacunado en tanto quelos latinos de 350 y los anglosajones
467 Estos indicadores estadiacutesticos puedesrevertirse si tomamos conciencia denuestra salud Lo maacutes importante es
reconocer que todos somos potencialesviacutectimas de la inuenza Cuanto maacutes
precauciones tomemos y maacutes medidasaplicamos en nuestro diario vivir menores la probabilidad de enfermarnos con unagripa La Dra Anne Schuchat directoradel Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten yEnfermedades Respiratorias del CDC ysubdirectora general del Servicio de SaludPuacuteblica de los Estados Unidos dice que lamayor actividad del virus de la inuenza

llegaron a esta decisioacuten y lo que puedenhacer para luchar por cada puesto de trabajo para quedarse en Lawrence El cierre de200 puestos de trabajo que se perderaacuten eneste proceso no es algo que Lawrence puedeaceptar
La marca de Polartec se ha convertidoen sinoacutenimo de la idea de que sus productosde alta calidad son realizados por una granfuerza de trabajo y que ellos tienen y hariacuteancualquier cosa por esa fuerza laboral Estaaccioacuten perjudica su marca Por uacuteltimo es necesario que sepan queLawrence no es ajena a situaciones comoesta Si este cierre ocurre seraacute un duro golpe para la ciudad hemos sido derribados antes pero la ciudad y su gente son resistentes ynos levantaremos y perseveraremos
ldquoAs the Mayor and resident ofLawrence I am shocked and saddenedthat Polartec has made the announcementthey did today Almost 200 Lawrencefamilies will be affected by this closureand it is especially disappointing to hearof this development the day before 20 yearanniversary of the historic mill re It is
further troubling that the CEO of PolartecGary Smith did not deliver this messagehimself
I feel that the workers and I were
deceived because just one month ago upon purchasing a similar business in TennesseePolartec reassured us (the Union and I) thatthey would not do exactly what they aredoing today The federal state and citygovernments made a long term commitmentto the manufacturing jobs at Polartec Thatmeant that whenever Polartec had a need oran issue they would bring us all to the tabletogether to gure out a way forward That
did not happen this timeI am calling for CEO Gary Smith
to attend or host a meeting with myselfand Mayor Zanni the State amp Federaldelegations and representatives of theGovernorrsquos ofce to discuss how they came
to this decision and what we can do to ght
for every job to stay in Lawrence Theclose to 200 jobs that will be lost throughthis process is not something Lawrence canaccept
Polartecrsquos brand has becomesynonymous with the concept that theirhigh quality products are made by a greatworkforce and that they have and woulddo anything for that workforce This actioncuts against their brand
Lastly it should be known thatLawrence is no stranger to times like theseIf this closure happens it will be a serious blow to the city we have been knockeddown before but the city and its peopleare resilient and we will get back up and persevere

The more things
change the morethey stay the same The Recall nal numbers surprised us
all 8022 signatures were collected Theleadership was told that the certications
will be done by December 16th howeverthe Election Department certied 4990 of
them in record time by Friday the 10th Therecall leadership is bafed and I understand
why This is the ofce that by Kopelman and
Paigersquos report identied numerous mistakes
bad management and disorganization Thisconsultant found that the election departmentof Lawrence mishandled the process of the2014 elections
The firm criticized the City ofLawrencersquos lack of organization andadequate education of election workersThey made recommendation that Riverared Rafael Tejeda The Kopelman and Paige
report listed numerous election violationsand procedures not being followed Thiscompany portrayed the Election Departmentas a department in shambles and in totalchaos
This report documented the lack ofadequate custody for ballots lack of ballot box security material being stored insideoverstuffed boxes they claimed that theElection Department allowed the publicaccess to the vault where ballots were beingheld on Election Day absentee ballots weresent to the wrong polling places absentee ballots not counted on election night andimproper handling of absentee ballots provisional ballots and numerous of otherchallenges That was year 2014 Now is 2015 not much has changed
in this department and I can understand therecall leadership preoccupation with the
process being fair and just It is no surpriseto me that they couldnrsquot find over threethousand voters they have been accused ofimproper and mishandling of ballots beforeThey didnrsquot count ballots on election nightwhy would we the public believe that theychecked over 8000 signatures in less thana week If in fact they ldquolookedrdquo at eachsignature this was done in less than 30 second
per signature IMPOSSIBLE
We the taxpayers of Lawrence deserve better service regardless whether you arecon or pro the recall The most egregiousmoment for me was when I read in theFacebook page of Riverasrsquos staff hintingthat they have won over the recall effort Or
how the numbers were out in the communitywhen this process was supposed to be a verycondential process
How can we believe in this departmentwith the kind of leaks that were releasedto the community Where is the integrityin the process For godrsquos sake I knew thenumbers before the numbers were made public Although the mayor red Tejeda
hired two of his friends and claimed tohave re structured the department nothinghas really changed This department is stilla mess and Friday conrmed it
The real fun begins now that the Boardof Registrars met on Monday December14 to certify the 4990 signatures that wereveried by the Election Department By
Wednesday at five orsquoclock both groupshave the option to file their objectionsMayor Rivera already said that he wantsan investigation on forgery and fraud eventhough at this point hersquos winning

There are those who think that the
internet came to revolutionize or rather
threaten journalism But in view of what it
is one must conclude that what journalism
needs is to revitalize itself are quality content
as if already at the time it was thought that
radio would unseat the newspaper and then
so did the TV nothing like that happened
So presumably that Internet todayalso is a stage of transition that will leadto genuine journalists to retrain becausequality information is imposed it is the
Journalism todayquality that can compete not sensationalism
The good journalism has to act as a
counter to express freely and not be complacent
with the powerful whether those powers are
advertisers and therefore its supporters
Good journalism has to do a revolutionfrom inside for strength even if it does notgenerate a prot because the benet cannot
be short term Journalists today have to beable to analyze things in depth before theyare communicated and not interested ina ood of information but truthful well
analyzed and explained information

Nadie estaacute inmune a los peligrosde la inuenza o lo que comuacutenmente se
conoce como la ldquogripardquo El antildeo pasado
en su reporte de febrero el Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten y EnfermedadesRespiratorias de los Centros para el Controly Prevencioacuten de Enfermedades (CDC)informoacute que el 61 de los maacutes afectadosfueron personas entre 18 y 64 antildeos de edad Con el anterior reporte el CDCdeshizo el mito de que soacutelo los nintildeos o las personas de la tercera edad son proclives aser afectados por el virus de la inuenza
Asimismo en ese mismo antildeo en la ciudadde Santa Ana una mujer en plenitud de su juventud a los 28 antildeos fallecioacute a causa deuna gripa croacutenica El deceso de esta persona llama muchola atencioacuten pero no es un caso aislado Lo
cierto es que situaciones como eacutesta han idoincrementando con el correr del tiempo Sitomamos en cuenta un periodo de 30 antildeos ndash
entre 1976 y 2006mdash los registros de muertea causa de la inuenza incrementaron desde
3000 a 49000 personas
iquestQueacute es lo que quiere decir el datoanterior Muy simple La inuenza es
una mal que no discrimina el color de lagente el sexo ni mucho menos la edad delas personas En un momento dado todos podemos ser viacutectimas si es que no tomamoslas medidas precautorias para contrarrestareste mal De todo el conjunto de personas quevivimos en los Estados Unidos a menudolas personas con bajos recursos econoacutemicosson los maacutes afectados y los maacutes propensosa tener siacutentomas de inuenza croacutenica
Lamentablemente algunos sectores de la poblacioacuten latina han tenido que soportarlos embates de la inuenza antildeo-tras-antildeo
debido a que en sus comunidades hay pocos programas de concientizacioacuten e informacioacutensobre los peligros de la inuenza Algunos
ni siquiera se enteran de que una vacuna puede ser el arma ideal para abatirla
De acuerdo a los datos del Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten del antildeo anteriorsolo 443 de los nintildeos latinos de seis
meses o mayores fueron vacunados contrala inuenza mientras que en la poblacioacuten
afroamericana es 438 A pesar de que
485 de los nintildeos anglosajones fueronvacunados este dato todaviacutea estaacute pordebajo de las metas establecidas por elgobierno nacional Las disparidades de vacunados entreuno y otro grupo eacutetnico es maacutes visibleen las poblaciones adultas 387 de los
afroamericanos fue vacunado en tanto quelos latinos de 350 y los anglosajones
467 Estos indicadores estadiacutesticos puedesrevertirse si tomamos conciencia denuestra salud Lo maacutes importante es
reconocer que todos somos potencialesviacutectimas de la inuenza Cuanto maacutes
precauciones tomemos y maacutes medidasaplicamos en nuestro diario vivir menores la probabilidad de enfermarnos con unagripa La Dra Anne Schuchat directoradel Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten yEnfermedades Respiratorias del CDC ysubdirectora general del Servicio de SaludPuacuteblica de los Estados Unidos dice que lamayor actividad del virus de la inuenza
se maniesta en las estas de Navidad y

Como alcalde y residente de Lawrenceestoy conmocionado y entristecido quePolartec ha hecho el anuncio que hicieronhoy Casi 200 familias de Lawrence se veraacutenafectadas por este cierre y es especialmentedecepcionante escuchar de estos planes eldiacutea antes del 20 aniversario del histoacutericofuego en la faacutebrica Es auacuten maacutes preocupanteque el CEO de Polartec Gary Smith noentregara este mensaje por siacute mismo Siento que los trabajadores y yo fuimosengantildeados porque hace apenas un mesdespueacutes de comprar un negocio similar enTennessee Polartec nos aseguroacute (la Unioacuteny yo) que no iban a hacer exactamente loque estaacuten haciendo en la actualidad Losgobiernos federales estatales y municipaleshicieron un compromiso a largo plazo paralos trabajos de fabricacioacuten en Polartec Esosignicaba que cada vez que Polartec teniacutea
una necesidad o un problema nos traeriacutea a
todos a la mesa para encontrar una forma deavanzar Eso no ocurrioacute en esta ocasioacuten Estoy llamando al CEO Gary Smith para asistir o auspiciar una reunioacuten conmigoy el Alcalde Zanni las delegacionesestatales y federales y representantes de laocina del gobernador para discutir coacutemo
llegaron a esta decisioacuten y lo que puedenhacer para luchar por cada puesto de trabajo para quedarse en Lawrence El cierre de200 puestos de trabajo que se perderaacuten eneste proceso no es algo que Lawrence puedeaceptar
La marca de Polartec se ha convertidoen sinoacutenimo de la idea de que sus productosde alta calidad son realizados por una granfuerza de trabajo y que ellos tienen y hariacuteancualquier cosa por esa fuerza laboral Estaaccioacuten perjudica su marca Por uacuteltimo es necesario que sepan queLawrence no es ajena a situaciones comoesta Si este cierre ocurre seraacute un duro golpe para la ciudad hemos sido derribados antes pero la ciudad y su gente son resistentes ynos levantaremos y perseveraremos
ldquoAs the Mayor and resident ofLawrence I am shocked and saddenedthat Polartec has made the announcementthey did today Almost 200 Lawrencefamilies will be affected by this closureand it is especially disappointing to hearof this development the day before 20 yearanniversary of the historic mill re It is
further troubling that the CEO of PolartecGary Smith did not deliver this messagehimself
I feel that the workers and I were
deceived because just one month ago upon purchasing a similar business in TennesseePolartec reassured us (the Union and I) thatthey would not do exactly what they aredoing today The federal state and citygovernments made a long term commitmentto the manufacturing jobs at Polartec Thatmeant that whenever Polartec had a need oran issue they would bring us all to the tabletogether to gure out a way forward That
did not happen this timeI am calling for CEO Gary Smith
to attend or host a meeting with myselfand Mayor Zanni the State amp Federaldelegations and representatives of theGovernorrsquos ofce to discuss how they came
to this decision and what we can do to ght
for every job to stay in Lawrence Theclose to 200 jobs that will be lost throughthis process is not something Lawrence canaccept
Polartecrsquos brand has becomesynonymous with the concept that theirhigh quality products are made by a greatworkforce and that they have and woulddo anything for that workforce This actioncuts against their brand
Lastly it should be known thatLawrence is no stranger to times like theseIf this closure happens it will be a serious blow to the city we have been knockeddown before but the city and its peopleare resilient and we will get back up and persevere

The more things
change the morethey stay the same The Recall nal numbers surprised us
all 8022 signatures were collected Theleadership was told that the certications
will be done by December 16th howeverthe Election Department certied 4990 of
them in record time by Friday the 10th Therecall leadership is bafed and I understand
why This is the ofce that by Kopelman and
Paigersquos report identied numerous mistakes
bad management and disorganization Thisconsultant found that the election departmentof Lawrence mishandled the process of the2014 elections
The firm criticized the City ofLawrencersquos lack of organization andadequate education of election workersThey made recommendation that Riverared Rafael Tejeda The Kopelman and Paige
report listed numerous election violationsand procedures not being followed Thiscompany portrayed the Election Departmentas a department in shambles and in totalchaos
This report documented the lack ofadequate custody for ballots lack of ballot box security material being stored insideoverstuffed boxes they claimed that theElection Department allowed the publicaccess to the vault where ballots were beingheld on Election Day absentee ballots weresent to the wrong polling places absentee ballots not counted on election night andimproper handling of absentee ballots provisional ballots and numerous of otherchallenges That was year 2014 Now is 2015 not much has changed
in this department and I can understand therecall leadership preoccupation with the
process being fair and just It is no surpriseto me that they couldnrsquot find over threethousand voters they have been accused ofimproper and mishandling of ballots beforeThey didnrsquot count ballots on election nightwhy would we the public believe that theychecked over 8000 signatures in less thana week If in fact they ldquolookedrdquo at eachsignature this was done in less than 30 second
per signature IMPOSSIBLE
We the taxpayers of Lawrence deserve better service regardless whether you arecon or pro the recall The most egregiousmoment for me was when I read in theFacebook page of Riverasrsquos staff hintingthat they have won over the recall effort Or
how the numbers were out in the communitywhen this process was supposed to be a verycondential process
How can we believe in this departmentwith the kind of leaks that were releasedto the community Where is the integrityin the process For godrsquos sake I knew thenumbers before the numbers were made public Although the mayor red Tejeda
hired two of his friends and claimed tohave re structured the department nothinghas really changed This department is stilla mess and Friday conrmed it
The real fun begins now that the Boardof Registrars met on Monday December14 to certify the 4990 signatures that wereveried by the Election Department By
Wednesday at five orsquoclock both groupshave the option to file their objectionsMayor Rivera already said that he wantsan investigation on forgery and fraud eventhough at this point hersquos winning

There are those who think that the
internet came to revolutionize or rather
threaten journalism But in view of what it
is one must conclude that what journalism
needs is to revitalize itself are quality content
as if already at the time it was thought that
radio would unseat the newspaper and then
so did the TV nothing like that happened
So presumably that Internet todayalso is a stage of transition that will leadto genuine journalists to retrain becausequality information is imposed it is the
Journalism todayquality that can compete not sensationalism
The good journalism has to act as a
counter to express freely and not be complacent
with the powerful whether those powers are
advertisers and therefore its supporters
Good journalism has to do a revolutionfrom inside for strength even if it does notgenerate a prot because the benet cannot
be short term Journalists today have to beable to analyze things in depth before theyare communicated and not interested ina ood of information but truthful well
analyzed and explained information

De acuerdo a los datos del Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten del antildeo anteriorsolo 443 de los nintildeos latinos de seis

llegaron a esta decisioacuten y lo que puedenhacer para luchar por cada puesto de trabajo para quedarse en Lawrence El cierre de200 puestos de trabajo que se perderaacuten eneste proceso no es algo que Lawrence puedeaceptar
La marca de Polartec se ha convertidoen sinoacutenimo de la idea de que sus productosde alta calidad son realizados por una granfuerza de trabajo y que ellos tienen y hariacuteancualquier cosa por esa fuerza laboral Estaaccioacuten perjudica su marca Por uacuteltimo es necesario que sepan queLawrence no es ajena a situaciones comoesta Si este cierre ocurre seraacute un duro golpe para la ciudad hemos sido derribados antes pero la ciudad y su gente son resistentes ynos levantaremos y perseveraremos
ldquoAs the Mayor and resident ofLawrence I am shocked and saddenedthat Polartec has made the announcementthey did today Almost 200 Lawrencefamilies will be affected by this closureand it is especially disappointing to hearof this development the day before 20 yearanniversary of the historic mill re It is
further troubling that the CEO of PolartecGary Smith did not deliver this messagehimself
I feel that the workers and I were
deceived because just one month ago upon purchasing a similar business in TennesseePolartec reassured us (the Union and I) thatthey would not do exactly what they aredoing today The federal state and citygovernments made a long term commitmentto the manufacturing jobs at Polartec Thatmeant that whenever Polartec had a need oran issue they would bring us all to the tabletogether to gure out a way forward That
did not happen this timeI am calling for CEO Gary Smith
to attend or host a meeting with myselfand Mayor Zanni the State amp Federaldelegations and representatives of theGovernorrsquos ofce to discuss how they came
to this decision and what we can do to ght
for every job to stay in Lawrence Theclose to 200 jobs that will be lost throughthis process is not something Lawrence canaccept
Polartecrsquos brand has becomesynonymous with the concept that theirhigh quality products are made by a greatworkforce and that they have and woulddo anything for that workforce This actioncuts against their brand
Lastly it should be known thatLawrence is no stranger to times like theseIf this closure happens it will be a serious blow to the city we have been knockeddown before but the city and its peopleare resilient and we will get back up and persevere

The more things
change the morethey stay the same The Recall nal numbers surprised us
all 8022 signatures were collected Theleadership was told that the certications
will be done by December 16th howeverthe Election Department certied 4990 of
them in record time by Friday the 10th Therecall leadership is bafed and I understand
why This is the ofce that by Kopelman and
Paigersquos report identied numerous mistakes
bad management and disorganization Thisconsultant found that the election departmentof Lawrence mishandled the process of the2014 elections
The firm criticized the City ofLawrencersquos lack of organization andadequate education of election workersThey made recommendation that Riverared Rafael Tejeda The Kopelman and Paige
report listed numerous election violationsand procedures not being followed Thiscompany portrayed the Election Departmentas a department in shambles and in totalchaos
This report documented the lack ofadequate custody for ballots lack of ballot box security material being stored insideoverstuffed boxes they claimed that theElection Department allowed the publicaccess to the vault where ballots were beingheld on Election Day absentee ballots weresent to the wrong polling places absentee ballots not counted on election night andimproper handling of absentee ballots provisional ballots and numerous of otherchallenges That was year 2014 Now is 2015 not much has changed
in this department and I can understand therecall leadership preoccupation with the
process being fair and just It is no surpriseto me that they couldnrsquot find over threethousand voters they have been accused ofimproper and mishandling of ballots beforeThey didnrsquot count ballots on election nightwhy would we the public believe that theychecked over 8000 signatures in less thana week If in fact they ldquolookedrdquo at eachsignature this was done in less than 30 second
per signature IMPOSSIBLE
We the taxpayers of Lawrence deserve better service regardless whether you arecon or pro the recall The most egregiousmoment for me was when I read in theFacebook page of Riverasrsquos staff hintingthat they have won over the recall effort Or
how the numbers were out in the communitywhen this process was supposed to be a verycondential process
How can we believe in this departmentwith the kind of leaks that were releasedto the community Where is the integrityin the process For godrsquos sake I knew thenumbers before the numbers were made public Although the mayor red Tejeda
hired two of his friends and claimed tohave re structured the department nothinghas really changed This department is stilla mess and Friday conrmed it
The real fun begins now that the Boardof Registrars met on Monday December14 to certify the 4990 signatures that wereveried by the Election Department By
Wednesday at five orsquoclock both groupshave the option to file their objectionsMayor Rivera already said that he wantsan investigation on forgery and fraud eventhough at this point hersquos winning

There are those who think that the
internet came to revolutionize or rather
threaten journalism But in view of what it
is one must conclude that what journalism
needs is to revitalize itself are quality content
as if already at the time it was thought that
radio would unseat the newspaper and then
so did the TV nothing like that happened
So presumably that Internet todayalso is a stage of transition that will leadto genuine journalists to retrain becausequality information is imposed it is the
Journalism todayquality that can compete not sensationalism
The good journalism has to act as a
counter to express freely and not be complacent

Nadie estaacute inmune a los peligrosde la inuenza o lo que comuacutenmente se
conoce como la ldquogripardquo El antildeo pasado
en su reporte de febrero el Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten y EnfermedadesRespiratorias de los Centros para el Controly Prevencioacuten de Enfermedades (CDC)informoacute que el 61 de los maacutes afectadosfueron personas entre 18 y 64 antildeos de edad Con el anterior reporte el CDCdeshizo el mito de que soacutelo los nintildeos o las personas de la tercera edad son proclives aser afectados por el virus de la inuenza
Asimismo en ese mismo antildeo en la ciudadde Santa Ana una mujer en plenitud de su juventud a los 28 antildeos fallecioacute a causa deuna gripa croacutenica El deceso de esta persona llama muchola atencioacuten pero no es un caso aislado Lo
cierto es que situaciones como eacutesta han idoincrementando con el correr del tiempo Sitomamos en cuenta un periodo de 30 antildeos ndash
entre 1976 y 2006mdash los registros de muertea causa de la inuenza incrementaron desde
3000 a 49000 personas
iquestQueacute es lo que quiere decir el datoanterior Muy simple La inuenza es
una mal que no discrimina el color de lagente el sexo ni mucho menos la edad delas personas En un momento dado todos podemos ser viacutectimas si es que no tomamoslas medidas precautorias para contrarrestareste mal De todo el conjunto de personas quevivimos en los Estados Unidos a menudolas personas con bajos recursos econoacutemicosson los maacutes afectados y los maacutes propensosa tener siacutentomas de inuenza croacutenica
Lamentablemente algunos sectores de la poblacioacuten latina han tenido que soportarlos embates de la inuenza antildeo-tras-antildeo
debido a que en sus comunidades hay pocos programas de concientizacioacuten e informacioacutensobre los peligros de la inuenza Algunos
ni siquiera se enteran de que una vacuna puede ser el arma ideal para abatirla
De acuerdo a los datos del Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten del antildeo anteriorsolo 443 de los nintildeos latinos de seis
meses o mayores fueron vacunados contrala inuenza mientras que en la poblacioacuten
afroamericana es 438 A pesar de que
485 de los nintildeos anglosajones fueronvacunados este dato todaviacutea estaacute pordebajo de las metas establecidas por elgobierno nacional Las disparidades de vacunados entreuno y otro grupo eacutetnico es maacutes visibleen las poblaciones adultas 387 de los
afroamericanos fue vacunado en tanto quelos latinos de 350 y los anglosajones
467 Estos indicadores estadiacutesticos puedesrevertirse si tomamos conciencia denuestra salud Lo maacutes importante es
reconocer que todos somos potencialesviacutectimas de la inuenza Cuanto maacutes
precauciones tomemos y maacutes medidasaplicamos en nuestro diario vivir menores la probabilidad de enfermarnos con unagripa La Dra Anne Schuchat directoradel Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten yEnfermedades Respiratorias del CDC ysubdirectora general del Servicio de SaludPuacuteblica de los Estados Unidos dice que lamayor actividad del virus de la inuenza

The more things
change the morethey stay the same The Recall nal numbers surprised us
all 8022 signatures were collected Theleadership was told that the certications
will be done by December 16th howeverthe Election Department certied 4990 of
them in record time by Friday the 10th Therecall leadership is bafed and I understand
why This is the ofce that by Kopelman and
Paigersquos report identied numerous mistakes
bad management and disorganization Thisconsultant found that the election departmentof Lawrence mishandled the process of the2014 elections
The firm criticized the City ofLawrencersquos lack of organization andadequate education of election workersThey made recommendation that Riverared Rafael Tejeda The Kopelman and Paige
report listed numerous election violationsand procedures not being followed Thiscompany portrayed the Election Departmentas a department in shambles and in totalchaos
This report documented the lack ofadequate custody for ballots lack of ballot box security material being stored insideoverstuffed boxes they claimed that theElection Department allowed the publicaccess to the vault where ballots were beingheld on Election Day absentee ballots weresent to the wrong polling places absentee ballots not counted on election night andimproper handling of absentee ballots provisional ballots and numerous of otherchallenges That was year 2014 Now is 2015 not much has changed
in this department and I can understand therecall leadership preoccupation with the
process being fair and just It is no surpriseto me that they couldnrsquot find over threethousand voters they have been accused ofimproper and mishandling of ballots beforeThey didnrsquot count ballots on election nightwhy would we the public believe that theychecked over 8000 signatures in less thana week If in fact they ldquolookedrdquo at eachsignature this was done in less than 30 second
per signature IMPOSSIBLE
We the taxpayers of Lawrence deserve better service regardless whether you arecon or pro the recall The most egregiousmoment for me was when I read in theFacebook page of Riverasrsquos staff hintingthat they have won over the recall effort Or
how the numbers were out in the communitywhen this process was supposed to be a verycondential process
How can we believe in this departmentwith the kind of leaks that were releasedto the community Where is the integrityin the process For godrsquos sake I knew thenumbers before the numbers were made public Although the mayor red Tejeda
hired two of his friends and claimed tohave re structured the department nothinghas really changed This department is stilla mess and Friday conrmed it
The real fun begins now that the Boardof Registrars met on Monday December14 to certify the 4990 signatures that wereveried by the Election Department By
Wednesday at five orsquoclock both groupshave the option to file their objectionsMayor Rivera already said that he wantsan investigation on forgery and fraud eventhough at this point hersquos winning

There are those who think that the
internet came to revolutionize or rather
threaten journalism But in view of what it
is one must conclude that what journalism
needs is to revitalize itself are quality content
as if already at the time it was thought that
radio would unseat the newspaper and then
so did the TV nothing like that happened
So presumably that Internet todayalso is a stage of transition that will leadto genuine journalists to retrain becausequality information is imposed it is the
Journalism todayquality that can compete not sensationalism
The good journalism has to act as a
counter to express freely and not be complacent
with the powerful whether those powers are
advertisers and therefore its supporters
Good journalism has to do a revolutionfrom inside for strength even if it does notgenerate a prot because the benet cannot
be short term Journalists today have to beable to analyze things in depth before theyare communicated and not interested ina ood of information but truthful well
analyzed and explained information

Nadie estaacute inmune a los peligrosde la inuenza o lo que comuacutenmente se
conoce como la ldquogripardquo El antildeo pasado
en su reporte de febrero el Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten y EnfermedadesRespiratorias de los Centros para el Controly Prevencioacuten de Enfermedades (CDC)informoacute que el 61 de los maacutes afectadosfueron personas entre 18 y 64 antildeos de edad Con el anterior reporte el CDCdeshizo el mito de que soacutelo los nintildeos o las personas de la tercera edad son proclives aser afectados por el virus de la inuenza
Asimismo en ese mismo antildeo en la ciudadde Santa Ana una mujer en plenitud de su juventud a los 28 antildeos fallecioacute a causa deuna gripa croacutenica El deceso de esta persona llama muchola atencioacuten pero no es un caso aislado Lo
cierto es que situaciones como eacutesta han idoincrementando con el correr del tiempo Sitomamos en cuenta un periodo de 30 antildeos ndash
entre 1976 y 2006mdash los registros de muertea causa de la inuenza incrementaron desde
3000 a 49000 personas
iquestQueacute es lo que quiere decir el datoanterior Muy simple La inuenza es
una mal que no discrimina el color de lagente el sexo ni mucho menos la edad delas personas En un momento dado todos podemos ser viacutectimas si es que no tomamoslas medidas precautorias para contrarrestareste mal De todo el conjunto de personas quevivimos en los Estados Unidos a menudolas personas con bajos recursos econoacutemicosson los maacutes afectados y los maacutes propensosa tener siacutentomas de inuenza croacutenica
Lamentablemente algunos sectores de la poblacioacuten latina han tenido que soportarlos embates de la inuenza antildeo-tras-antildeo
debido a que en sus comunidades hay pocos programas de concientizacioacuten e informacioacutensobre los peligros de la inuenza Algunos
ni siquiera se enteran de que una vacuna puede ser el arma ideal para abatirla
De acuerdo a los datos del Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten del antildeo anteriorsolo 443 de los nintildeos latinos de seis
meses o mayores fueron vacunados contrala inuenza mientras que en la poblacioacuten
afroamericana es 438 A pesar de que
485 de los nintildeos anglosajones fueronvacunados este dato todaviacutea estaacute pordebajo de las metas establecidas por elgobierno nacional Las disparidades de vacunados entreuno y otro grupo eacutetnico es maacutes visibleen las poblaciones adultas 387 de los
afroamericanos fue vacunado en tanto quelos latinos de 350 y los anglosajones
467 Estos indicadores estadiacutesticos puedesrevertirse si tomamos conciencia denuestra salud Lo maacutes importante es
reconocer que todos somos potencialesviacutectimas de la inuenza Cuanto maacutes
precauciones tomemos y maacutes medidasaplicamos en nuestro diario vivir menores la probabilidad de enfermarnos con unagripa La Dra Anne Schuchat directoradel Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten yEnfermedades Respiratorias del CDC ysubdirectora general del Servicio de SaludPuacuteblica de los Estados Unidos dice que lamayor actividad del virus de la inuenza

The more things
change the morethey stay the same The Recall nal numbers surprised us
all 8022 signatures were collected Theleadership was told that the certications
will be done by December 16th howeverthe Election Department certied 4990 of
them in record time by Friday the 10th Therecall leadership is bafed and I understand
why This is the ofce that by Kopelman and
Paigersquos report identied numerous mistakes
bad management and disorganization Thisconsultant found that the election departmentof Lawrence mishandled the process of the2014 elections
The firm criticized the City ofLawrencersquos lack of organization andadequate education of election workersThey made recommendation that Riverared Rafael Tejeda The Kopelman and Paige
report listed numerous election violationsand procedures not being followed Thiscompany portrayed the Election Departmentas a department in shambles and in totalchaos
This report documented the lack ofadequate custody for ballots lack of ballot box security material being stored insideoverstuffed boxes they claimed that theElection Department allowed the publicaccess to the vault where ballots were beingheld on Election Day absentee ballots weresent to the wrong polling places absentee ballots not counted on election night andimproper handling of absentee ballots provisional ballots and numerous of otherchallenges That was year 2014 Now is 2015 not much has changed
in this department and I can understand therecall leadership preoccupation with the
process being fair and just It is no surpriseto me that they couldnrsquot find over threethousand voters they have been accused ofimproper and mishandling of ballots beforeThey didnrsquot count ballots on election nightwhy would we the public believe that theychecked over 8000 signatures in less thana week If in fact they ldquolookedrdquo at eachsignature this was done in less than 30 second
per signature IMPOSSIBLE
We the taxpayers of Lawrence deserve better service regardless whether you arecon or pro the recall The most egregiousmoment for me was when I read in theFacebook page of Riverasrsquos staff hintingthat they have won over the recall effort Or
how the numbers were out in the communitywhen this process was supposed to be a verycondential process
How can we believe in this departmentwith the kind of leaks that were releasedto the community Where is the integrityin the process For godrsquos sake I knew thenumbers before the numbers were made public Although the mayor red Tejeda
hired two of his friends and claimed tohave re structured the department nothinghas really changed This department is stilla mess and Friday conrmed it
The real fun begins now that the Boardof Registrars met on Monday December14 to certify the 4990 signatures that wereveried by the Election Department By
Wednesday at five orsquoclock both groupshave the option to file their objectionsMayor Rivera already said that he wantsan investigation on forgery and fraud eventhough at this point hersquos winning

There are those who think that the
internet came to revolutionize or rather
threaten journalism But in view of what it
is one must conclude that what journalism
needs is to revitalize itself are quality content
as if already at the time it was thought that
radio would unseat the newspaper and then
so did the TV nothing like that happened
So presumably that Internet todayalso is a stage of transition that will leadto genuine journalists to retrain becausequality information is imposed it is the
Journalism todayquality that can compete not sensationalism
The good journalism has to act as a
counter to express freely and not be complacent
with the powerful whether those powers are
advertisers and therefore its supporters
Good journalism has to do a revolutionfrom inside for strength even if it does notgenerate a prot because the benet cannot
be short term Journalists today have to beable to analyze things in depth before theyare communicated and not interested ina ood of information but truthful well
analyzed and explained information

Nadie estaacute inmune a los peligrosde la inuenza o lo que comuacutenmente se
conoce como la ldquogripardquo El antildeo pasado
en su reporte de febrero el Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten y EnfermedadesRespiratorias de los Centros para el Controly Prevencioacuten de Enfermedades (CDC)informoacute que el 61 de los maacutes afectadosfueron personas entre 18 y 64 antildeos de edad Con el anterior reporte el CDCdeshizo el mito de que soacutelo los nintildeos o las personas de la tercera edad son proclives aser afectados por el virus de la inuenza
Asimismo en ese mismo antildeo en la ciudadde Santa Ana una mujer en plenitud de su juventud a los 28 antildeos fallecioacute a causa deuna gripa croacutenica El deceso de esta persona llama muchola atencioacuten pero no es un caso aislado Lo
cierto es que situaciones como eacutesta han idoincrementando con el correr del tiempo Sitomamos en cuenta un periodo de 30 antildeos ndash
entre 1976 y 2006mdash los registros de muertea causa de la inuenza incrementaron desde
3000 a 49000 personas
iquestQueacute es lo que quiere decir el datoanterior Muy simple La inuenza es
una mal que no discrimina el color de lagente el sexo ni mucho menos la edad delas personas En un momento dado todos podemos ser viacutectimas si es que no tomamoslas medidas precautorias para contrarrestareste mal De todo el conjunto de personas quevivimos en los Estados Unidos a menudolas personas con bajos recursos econoacutemicosson los maacutes afectados y los maacutes propensosa tener siacutentomas de inuenza croacutenica
Lamentablemente algunos sectores de la poblacioacuten latina han tenido que soportarlos embates de la inuenza antildeo-tras-antildeo
debido a que en sus comunidades hay pocos programas de concientizacioacuten e informacioacutensobre los peligros de la inuenza Algunos
ni siquiera se enteran de que una vacuna puede ser el arma ideal para abatirla
De acuerdo a los datos del Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten del antildeo anteriorsolo 443 de los nintildeos latinos de seis
meses o mayores fueron vacunados contrala inuenza mientras que en la poblacioacuten
afroamericana es 438 A pesar de que
485 de los nintildeos anglosajones fueronvacunados este dato todaviacutea estaacute pordebajo de las metas establecidas por elgobierno nacional Las disparidades de vacunados entreuno y otro grupo eacutetnico es maacutes visibleen las poblaciones adultas 387 de los
afroamericanos fue vacunado en tanto quelos latinos de 350 y los anglosajones
467 Estos indicadores estadiacutesticos puedesrevertirse si tomamos conciencia denuestra salud Lo maacutes importante es
reconocer que todos somos potencialesviacutectimas de la inuenza Cuanto maacutes
precauciones tomemos y maacutes medidasaplicamos en nuestro diario vivir menores la probabilidad de enfermarnos con unagripa La Dra Anne Schuchat directoradel Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten yEnfermedades Respiratorias del CDC ysubdirectora general del Servicio de SaludPuacuteblica de los Estados Unidos dice que lamayor actividad del virus de la inuenza
se maniesta en las estas de Navidad y
Antildeo Nuevo entre diciembre y febrero Deacuerdo a sus estudios el problema puedeincluso durar hasta mayo En este sentido diversas organizacionesnacionales como el CDC estaacuten en plenacampantildea contra el virus de la inuenza
durante las estas de n de antildeo Todos
tenemos que vacunarnos La Navidad y losfestejos del Antildeo Nuevo son mejores sin lainuenza

The more things
change the morethey stay the same The Recall nal numbers surprised us
all 8022 signatures were collected Theleadership was told that the certications
will be done by December 16th howeverthe Election Department certied 4990 of
them in record time by Friday the 10th Therecall leadership is bafed and I understand
why This is the ofce that by Kopelman and
Paigersquos report identied numerous mistakes
bad management and disorganization Thisconsultant found that the election departmentof Lawrence mishandled the process of the2014 elections
The firm criticized the City ofLawrencersquos lack of organization andadequate education of election workersThey made recommendation that Riverared Rafael Tejeda The Kopelman and Paige
report listed numerous election violationsand procedures not being followed Thiscompany portrayed the Election Departmentas a department in shambles and in totalchaos
This report documented the lack ofadequate custody for ballots lack of ballot box security material being stored insideoverstuffed boxes they claimed that theElection Department allowed the publicaccess to the vault where ballots were beingheld on Election Day absentee ballots weresent to the wrong polling places absentee ballots not counted on election night andimproper handling of absentee ballots provisional ballots and numerous of otherchallenges That was year 2014 Now is 2015 not much has changed
in this department and I can understand therecall leadership preoccupation with the
process being fair and just It is no surpriseto me that they couldnrsquot find over threethousand voters they have been accused ofimproper and mishandling of ballots beforeThey didnrsquot count ballots on election nightwhy would we the public believe that theychecked over 8000 signatures in less thana week If in fact they ldquolookedrdquo at eachsignature this was done in less than 30 second
per signature IMPOSSIBLE
We the taxpayers of Lawrence deserve better service regardless whether you arecon or pro the recall The most egregiousmoment for me was when I read in theFacebook page of Riverasrsquos staff hintingthat they have won over the recall effort Or
how the numbers were out in the communitywhen this process was supposed to be a verycondential process
How can we believe in this departmentwith the kind of leaks that were releasedto the community Where is the integrityin the process For godrsquos sake I knew thenumbers before the numbers were made public Although the mayor red Tejeda
hired two of his friends and claimed tohave re structured the department nothinghas really changed This department is stilla mess and Friday conrmed it
The real fun begins now that the Boardof Registrars met on Monday December14 to certify the 4990 signatures that wereveried by the Election Department By
Wednesday at five orsquoclock both groupshave the option to file their objectionsMayor Rivera already said that he wantsan investigation on forgery and fraud eventhough at this point hersquos winning

There are those who think that the
internet came to revolutionize or rather
threaten journalism But in view of what it
is one must conclude that what journalism
needs is to revitalize itself are quality content
as if already at the time it was thought that
radio would unseat the newspaper and then
so did the TV nothing like that happened
So presumably that Internet todayalso is a stage of transition that will leadto genuine journalists to retrain becausequality information is imposed it is the
Journalism todayquality that can compete not sensationalism
The good journalism has to act as a
counter to express freely and not be complacent
with the powerful whether those powers are
advertisers and therefore its supporters
Good journalism has to do a revolutionfrom inside for strength even if it does notgenerate a prot because the benet cannot
be short term Journalists today have to beable to analyze things in depth before theyare communicated and not interested ina ood of information but truthful well
analyzed and explained information

Nadie estaacute inmune a los peligrosde la inuenza o lo que comuacutenmente se
conoce como la ldquogripardquo El antildeo pasado
en su reporte de febrero el Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten y EnfermedadesRespiratorias de los Centros para el Controly Prevencioacuten de Enfermedades (CDC)informoacute que el 61 de los maacutes afectadosfueron personas entre 18 y 64 antildeos de edad Con el anterior reporte el CDCdeshizo el mito de que soacutelo los nintildeos o las personas de la tercera edad son proclives aser afectados por el virus de la inuenza
Asimismo en ese mismo antildeo en la ciudadde Santa Ana una mujer en plenitud de su juventud a los 28 antildeos fallecioacute a causa deuna gripa croacutenica El deceso de esta persona llama muchola atencioacuten pero no es un caso aislado Lo
cierto es que situaciones como eacutesta han idoincrementando con el correr del tiempo Sitomamos en cuenta un periodo de 30 antildeos ndash
entre 1976 y 2006mdash los registros de muertea causa de la inuenza incrementaron desde
3000 a 49000 personas
iquestQueacute es lo que quiere decir el datoanterior Muy simple La inuenza es
una mal que no discrimina el color de lagente el sexo ni mucho menos la edad delas personas En un momento dado todos podemos ser viacutectimas si es que no tomamoslas medidas precautorias para contrarrestareste mal De todo el conjunto de personas quevivimos en los Estados Unidos a menudolas personas con bajos recursos econoacutemicosson los maacutes afectados y los maacutes propensosa tener siacutentomas de inuenza croacutenica
Lamentablemente algunos sectores de la poblacioacuten latina han tenido que soportarlos embates de la inuenza antildeo-tras-antildeo
debido a que en sus comunidades hay pocos programas de concientizacioacuten e informacioacutensobre los peligros de la inuenza Algunos
ni siquiera se enteran de que una vacuna puede ser el arma ideal para abatirla
De acuerdo a los datos del Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten del antildeo anteriorsolo 443 de los nintildeos latinos de seis
meses o mayores fueron vacunados contrala inuenza mientras que en la poblacioacuten
afroamericana es 438 A pesar de que
485 de los nintildeos anglosajones fueronvacunados este dato todaviacutea estaacute pordebajo de las metas establecidas por elgobierno nacional Las disparidades de vacunados entreuno y otro grupo eacutetnico es maacutes visibleen las poblaciones adultas 387 de los
afroamericanos fue vacunado en tanto quelos latinos de 350 y los anglosajones
467 Estos indicadores estadiacutesticos puedesrevertirse si tomamos conciencia denuestra salud Lo maacutes importante es
reconocer que todos somos potencialesviacutectimas de la inuenza Cuanto maacutes
precauciones tomemos y maacutes medidasaplicamos en nuestro diario vivir menores la probabilidad de enfermarnos con unagripa La Dra Anne Schuchat directoradel Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten yEnfermedades Respiratorias del CDC ysubdirectora general del Servicio de SaludPuacuteblica de los Estados Unidos dice que lamayor actividad del virus de la inuenza
se maniesta en las estas de Navidad y

The more things
change the morethey stay the same The Recall nal numbers surprised us
all 8022 signatures were collected Theleadership was told that the certications
will be done by December 16th howeverthe Election Department certied 4990 of
them in record time by Friday the 10th Therecall leadership is bafed and I understand
why This is the ofce that by Kopelman and
Paigersquos report identied numerous mistakes
bad management and disorganization Thisconsultant found that the election departmentof Lawrence mishandled the process of the2014 elections
The firm criticized the City ofLawrencersquos lack of organization andadequate education of election workersThey made recommendation that Riverared Rafael Tejeda The Kopelman and Paige
report listed numerous election violationsand procedures not being followed Thiscompany portrayed the Election Departmentas a department in shambles and in totalchaos
This report documented the lack ofadequate custody for ballots lack of ballot box security material being stored insideoverstuffed boxes they claimed that theElection Department allowed the publicaccess to the vault where ballots were beingheld on Election Day absentee ballots weresent to the wrong polling places absentee ballots not counted on election night andimproper handling of absentee ballots provisional ballots and numerous of otherchallenges That was year 2014 Now is 2015 not much has changed
in this department and I can understand therecall leadership preoccupation with the
process being fair and just It is no surpriseto me that they couldnrsquot find over threethousand voters they have been accused ofimproper and mishandling of ballots beforeThey didnrsquot count ballots on election nightwhy would we the public believe that theychecked over 8000 signatures in less thana week If in fact they ldquolookedrdquo at eachsignature this was done in less than 30 second
per signature IMPOSSIBLE
We the taxpayers of Lawrence deserve better service regardless whether you arecon or pro the recall The most egregiousmoment for me was when I read in theFacebook page of Riverasrsquos staff hintingthat they have won over the recall effort Or
how the numbers were out in the communitywhen this process was supposed to be a verycondential process
How can we believe in this departmentwith the kind of leaks that were releasedto the community Where is the integrityin the process For godrsquos sake I knew thenumbers before the numbers were made public Although the mayor red Tejeda
hired two of his friends and claimed tohave re structured the department nothinghas really changed This department is stilla mess and Friday conrmed it
The real fun begins now that the Boardof Registrars met on Monday December14 to certify the 4990 signatures that wereveried by the Election Department By
Wednesday at five orsquoclock both groupshave the option to file their objectionsMayor Rivera already said that he wantsan investigation on forgery and fraud eventhough at this point hersquos winning

There are those who think that the
internet came to revolutionize or rather
threaten journalism But in view of what it
is one must conclude that what journalism
needs is to revitalize itself are quality content
as if already at the time it was thought that
radio would unseat the newspaper and then
so did the TV nothing like that happened
So presumably that Internet todayalso is a stage of transition that will leadto genuine journalists to retrain becausequality information is imposed it is the
Journalism todayquality that can compete not sensationalism
The good journalism has to act as a
counter to express freely and not be complacent
with the powerful whether those powers are
advertisers and therefore its supporters
Good journalism has to do a revolutionfrom inside for strength even if it does notgenerate a prot because the benet cannot
be short term Journalists today have to beable to analyze things in depth before theyare communicated and not interested ina ood of information but truthful well
analyzed and explained information

Nadie estaacute inmune a los peligrosde la inuenza o lo que comuacutenmente se
conoce como la ldquogripardquo El antildeo pasado
en su reporte de febrero el Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten y EnfermedadesRespiratorias de los Centros para el Controly Prevencioacuten de Enfermedades (CDC)informoacute que el 61 de los maacutes afectadosfueron personas entre 18 y 64 antildeos de edad Con el anterior reporte el CDCdeshizo el mito de que soacutelo los nintildeos o las personas de la tercera edad son proclives aser afectados por el virus de la inuenza
Asimismo en ese mismo antildeo en la ciudadde Santa Ana una mujer en plenitud de su juventud a los 28 antildeos fallecioacute a causa deuna gripa croacutenica El deceso de esta persona llama muchola atencioacuten pero no es un caso aislado Lo
cierto es que situaciones como eacutesta han idoincrementando con el correr del tiempo Sitomamos en cuenta un periodo de 30 antildeos ndash
entre 1976 y 2006mdash los registros de muertea causa de la inuenza incrementaron desde
3000 a 49000 personas
iquestQueacute es lo que quiere decir el datoanterior Muy simple La inuenza es
una mal que no discrimina el color de lagente el sexo ni mucho menos la edad delas personas En un momento dado todos podemos ser viacutectimas si es que no tomamoslas medidas precautorias para contrarrestareste mal De todo el conjunto de personas quevivimos en los Estados Unidos a menudolas personas con bajos recursos econoacutemicosson los maacutes afectados y los maacutes propensosa tener siacutentomas de inuenza croacutenica
Lamentablemente algunos sectores de la poblacioacuten latina han tenido que soportarlos embates de la inuenza antildeo-tras-antildeo
debido a que en sus comunidades hay pocos programas de concientizacioacuten e informacioacutensobre los peligros de la inuenza Algunos
ni siquiera se enteran de que una vacuna puede ser el arma ideal para abatirla
De acuerdo a los datos del Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten del antildeo anteriorsolo 443 de los nintildeos latinos de seis
meses o mayores fueron vacunados contrala inuenza mientras que en la poblacioacuten
afroamericana es 438 A pesar de que
485 de los nintildeos anglosajones fueronvacunados este dato todaviacutea estaacute pordebajo de las metas establecidas por elgobierno nacional Las disparidades de vacunados entreuno y otro grupo eacutetnico es maacutes visibleen las poblaciones adultas 387 de los
afroamericanos fue vacunado en tanto quelos latinos de 350 y los anglosajones
467 Estos indicadores estadiacutesticos puedesrevertirse si tomamos conciencia denuestra salud Lo maacutes importante es
reconocer que todos somos potencialesviacutectimas de la inuenza Cuanto maacutes
precauciones tomemos y maacutes medidasaplicamos en nuestro diario vivir menores la probabilidad de enfermarnos con unagripa La Dra Anne Schuchat directoradel Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten yEnfermedades Respiratorias del CDC ysubdirectora general del Servicio de SaludPuacuteblica de los Estados Unidos dice que lamayor actividad del virus de la inuenza
se maniesta en las estas de Navidad y
Antildeo Nuevo entre diciembre y febrero Deacuerdo a sus estudios el problema puedeincluso durar hasta mayo En este sentido diversas organizacionesnacionales como el CDC estaacuten en plenacampantildea contra el virus de la inuenza
durante las estas de n de antildeo Todos
tenemos que vacunarnos La Navidad y losfestejos del Antildeo Nuevo son mejores sin lainuenza

The more things
change the morethey stay the same The Recall nal numbers surprised us
all 8022 signatures were collected Theleadership was told that the certications
will be done by December 16th howeverthe Election Department certied 4990 of
them in record time by Friday the 10th Therecall leadership is bafed and I understand
why This is the ofce that by Kopelman and
Paigersquos report identied numerous mistakes
bad management and disorganization Thisconsultant found that the election departmentof Lawrence mishandled the process of the2014 elections
The firm criticized the City ofLawrencersquos lack of organization andadequate education of election workersThey made recommendation that Riverared Rafael Tejeda The Kopelman and Paige
report listed numerous election violationsand procedures not being followed Thiscompany portrayed the Election Departmentas a department in shambles and in totalchaos
This report documented the lack ofadequate custody for ballots lack of ballot box security material being stored insideoverstuffed boxes they claimed that theElection Department allowed the publicaccess to the vault where ballots were beingheld on Election Day absentee ballots weresent to the wrong polling places absentee ballots not counted on election night andimproper handling of absentee ballots provisional ballots and numerous of otherchallenges That was year 2014 Now is 2015 not much has changed
in this department and I can understand therecall leadership preoccupation with the
process being fair and just It is no surpriseto me that they couldnrsquot find over threethousand voters they have been accused ofimproper and mishandling of ballots beforeThey didnrsquot count ballots on election nightwhy would we the public believe that theychecked over 8000 signatures in less thana week If in fact they ldquolookedrdquo at eachsignature this was done in less than 30 second
per signature IMPOSSIBLE
We the taxpayers of Lawrence deserve better service regardless whether you arecon or pro the recall The most egregiousmoment for me was when I read in theFacebook page of Riverasrsquos staff hintingthat they have won over the recall effort Or
how the numbers were out in the communitywhen this process was supposed to be a verycondential process
How can we believe in this departmentwith the kind of leaks that were releasedto the community Where is the integrityin the process For godrsquos sake I knew thenumbers before the numbers were made public Although the mayor red Tejeda
hired two of his friends and claimed tohave re structured the department nothinghas really changed This department is stilla mess and Friday conrmed it
The real fun begins now that the Boardof Registrars met on Monday December14 to certify the 4990 signatures that wereveried by the Election Department By
Wednesday at five orsquoclock both groupshave the option to file their objectionsMayor Rivera already said that he wantsan investigation on forgery and fraud eventhough at this point hersquos winning

There are those who think that the
internet came to revolutionize or rather
threaten journalism But in view of what it
is one must conclude that what journalism
needs is to revitalize itself are quality content
as if already at the time it was thought that
radio would unseat the newspaper and then
so did the TV nothing like that happened
So presumably that Internet todayalso is a stage of transition that will leadto genuine journalists to retrain becausequality information is imposed it is the
Journalism todayquality that can compete not sensationalism
The good journalism has to act as a
counter to express freely and not be complacent
with the powerful whether those powers are
advertisers and therefore its supporters
Good journalism has to do a revolutionfrom inside for strength even if it does notgenerate a prot because the benet cannot
be short term Journalists today have to beable to analyze things in depth before theyare communicated and not interested ina ood of information but truthful well
analyzed and explained information

Nadie estaacute inmune a los peligrosde la inuenza o lo que comuacutenmente se
conoce como la ldquogripardquo El antildeo pasado
en su reporte de febrero el Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten y EnfermedadesRespiratorias de los Centros para el Controly Prevencioacuten de Enfermedades (CDC)informoacute que el 61 de los maacutes afectadosfueron personas entre 18 y 64 antildeos de edad Con el anterior reporte el CDCdeshizo el mito de que soacutelo los nintildeos o las personas de la tercera edad son proclives aser afectados por el virus de la inuenza
Asimismo en ese mismo antildeo en la ciudadde Santa Ana una mujer en plenitud de su juventud a los 28 antildeos fallecioacute a causa deuna gripa croacutenica El deceso de esta persona llama muchola atencioacuten pero no es un caso aislado Lo
cierto es que situaciones como eacutesta han idoincrementando con el correr del tiempo Sitomamos en cuenta un periodo de 30 antildeos ndash
entre 1976 y 2006mdash los registros de muertea causa de la inuenza incrementaron desde
3000 a 49000 personas
iquestQueacute es lo que quiere decir el datoanterior Muy simple La inuenza es
una mal que no discrimina el color de lagente el sexo ni mucho menos la edad delas personas En un momento dado todos podemos ser viacutectimas si es que no tomamoslas medidas precautorias para contrarrestareste mal De todo el conjunto de personas quevivimos en los Estados Unidos a menudolas personas con bajos recursos econoacutemicosson los maacutes afectados y los maacutes propensosa tener siacutentomas de inuenza croacutenica
Lamentablemente algunos sectores de la poblacioacuten latina han tenido que soportarlos embates de la inuenza antildeo-tras-antildeo
debido a que en sus comunidades hay pocos programas de concientizacioacuten e informacioacutensobre los peligros de la inuenza Algunos
ni siquiera se enteran de que una vacuna puede ser el arma ideal para abatirla
De acuerdo a los datos del Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten del antildeo anteriorsolo 443 de los nintildeos latinos de seis
meses o mayores fueron vacunados contrala inuenza mientras que en la poblacioacuten
afroamericana es 438 A pesar de que
485 de los nintildeos anglosajones fueronvacunados este dato todaviacutea estaacute pordebajo de las metas establecidas por elgobierno nacional Las disparidades de vacunados entreuno y otro grupo eacutetnico es maacutes visibleen las poblaciones adultas 387 de los
afroamericanos fue vacunado en tanto quelos latinos de 350 y los anglosajones
467 Estos indicadores estadiacutesticos puedesrevertirse si tomamos conciencia denuestra salud Lo maacutes importante es
reconocer que todos somos potencialesviacutectimas de la inuenza Cuanto maacutes
precauciones tomemos y maacutes medidasaplicamos en nuestro diario vivir menores la probabilidad de enfermarnos con unagripa La Dra Anne Schuchat directoradel Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten yEnfermedades Respiratorias del CDC ysubdirectora general del Servicio de SaludPuacuteblica de los Estados Unidos dice que lamayor actividad del virus de la inuenza

The more things
change the morethey stay the same The Recall nal numbers surprised us
all 8022 signatures were collected Theleadership was told that the certications
will be done by December 16th howeverthe Election Department certied 4990 of
them in record time by Friday the 10th Therecall leadership is bafed and I understand
why This is the ofce that by Kopelman and
Paigersquos report identied numerous mistakes
bad management and disorganization Thisconsultant found that the election departmentof Lawrence mishandled the process of the2014 elections
The firm criticized the City ofLawrencersquos lack of organization andadequate education of election workersThey made recommendation that Riverared Rafael Tejeda The Kopelman and Paige
report listed numerous election violationsand procedures not being followed Thiscompany portrayed the Election Departmentas a department in shambles and in totalchaos
This report documented the lack ofadequate custody for ballots lack of ballot box security material being stored insideoverstuffed boxes they claimed that theElection Department allowed the publicaccess to the vault where ballots were beingheld on Election Day absentee ballots weresent to the wrong polling places absentee ballots not counted on election night andimproper handling of absentee ballots provisional ballots and numerous of otherchallenges That was year 2014 Now is 2015 not much has changed
in this department and I can understand therecall leadership preoccupation with the
process being fair and just It is no surpriseto me that they couldnrsquot find over threethousand voters they have been accused ofimproper and mishandling of ballots beforeThey didnrsquot count ballots on election nightwhy would we the public believe that theychecked over 8000 signatures in less thana week If in fact they ldquolookedrdquo at eachsignature this was done in less than 30 second
per signature IMPOSSIBLE
We the taxpayers of Lawrence deserve better service regardless whether you arecon or pro the recall The most egregiousmoment for me was when I read in theFacebook page of Riverasrsquos staff hintingthat they have won over the recall effort Or
how the numbers were out in the communitywhen this process was supposed to be a verycondential process
How can we believe in this departmentwith the kind of leaks that were releasedto the community Where is the integrityin the process For godrsquos sake I knew thenumbers before the numbers were made public Although the mayor red Tejeda
hired two of his friends and claimed tohave re structured the department nothinghas really changed This department is stilla mess and Friday conrmed it
The real fun begins now that the Boardof Registrars met on Monday December14 to certify the 4990 signatures that wereveried by the Election Department By
Wednesday at five orsquoclock both groupshave the option to file their objectionsMayor Rivera already said that he wantsan investigation on forgery and fraud eventhough at this point hersquos winning

There are those who think that the
internet came to revolutionize or rather
threaten journalism But in view of what it
is one must conclude that what journalism
needs is to revitalize itself are quality content
as if already at the time it was thought that
radio would unseat the newspaper and then
so did the TV nothing like that happened
So presumably that Internet todayalso is a stage of transition that will leadto genuine journalists to retrain becausequality information is imposed it is the
Journalism todayquality that can compete not sensationalism
The good journalism has to act as a
counter to express freely and not be complacent
with the powerful whether those powers are
advertisers and therefore its supporters
Good journalism has to do a revolutionfrom inside for strength even if it does notgenerate a prot because the benet cannot
be short term Journalists today have to beable to analyze things in depth before theyare communicated and not interested ina ood of information but truthful well
analyzed and explained information

Nadie estaacute inmune a los peligrosde la inuenza o lo que comuacutenmente se
conoce como la ldquogripardquo El antildeo pasado
en su reporte de febrero el Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten y EnfermedadesRespiratorias de los Centros para el Controly Prevencioacuten de Enfermedades (CDC)informoacute que el 61 de los maacutes afectadosfueron personas entre 18 y 64 antildeos de edad Con el anterior reporte el CDCdeshizo el mito de que soacutelo los nintildeos o las personas de la tercera edad son proclives aser afectados por el virus de la inuenza
Asimismo en ese mismo antildeo en la ciudadde Santa Ana una mujer en plenitud de su juventud a los 28 antildeos fallecioacute a causa deuna gripa croacutenica El deceso de esta persona llama muchola atencioacuten pero no es un caso aislado Lo
cierto es que situaciones como eacutesta han idoincrementando con el correr del tiempo Sitomamos en cuenta un periodo de 30 antildeos ndash
entre 1976 y 2006mdash los registros de muertea causa de la inuenza incrementaron desde
3000 a 49000 personas
iquestQueacute es lo que quiere decir el datoanterior Muy simple La inuenza es
una mal que no discrimina el color de lagente el sexo ni mucho menos la edad delas personas En un momento dado todos podemos ser viacutectimas si es que no tomamoslas medidas precautorias para contrarrestareste mal De todo el conjunto de personas quevivimos en los Estados Unidos a menudolas personas con bajos recursos econoacutemicosson los maacutes afectados y los maacutes propensosa tener siacutentomas de inuenza croacutenica
Lamentablemente algunos sectores de la poblacioacuten latina han tenido que soportarlos embates de la inuenza antildeo-tras-antildeo
debido a que en sus comunidades hay pocos programas de concientizacioacuten e informacioacutensobre los peligros de la inuenza Algunos
ni siquiera se enteran de que una vacuna puede ser el arma ideal para abatirla
De acuerdo a los datos del Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten del antildeo anteriorsolo 443 de los nintildeos latinos de seis
meses o mayores fueron vacunados contrala inuenza mientras que en la poblacioacuten
afroamericana es 438 A pesar de que
485 de los nintildeos anglosajones fueronvacunados este dato todaviacutea estaacute pordebajo de las metas establecidas por elgobierno nacional Las disparidades de vacunados entreuno y otro grupo eacutetnico es maacutes visibleen las poblaciones adultas 387 de los
afroamericanos fue vacunado en tanto quelos latinos de 350 y los anglosajones
467 Estos indicadores estadiacutesticos puedesrevertirse si tomamos conciencia denuestra salud Lo maacutes importante es
reconocer que todos somos potencialesviacutectimas de la inuenza Cuanto maacutes
precauciones tomemos y maacutes medidasaplicamos en nuestro diario vivir menores la probabilidad de enfermarnos con unagripa La Dra Anne Schuchat directoradel Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten yEnfermedades Respiratorias del CDC ysubdirectora general del Servicio de SaludPuacuteblica de los Estados Unidos dice que lamayor actividad del virus de la inuenza
se maniesta en las estas de Navidad y
Antildeo Nuevo entre diciembre y febrero Deacuerdo a sus estudios el problema puedeincluso durar hasta mayo En este sentido diversas organizacionesnacionales como el CDC estaacuten en plenacampantildea contra el virus de la inuenza

The more things
change the morethey stay the same The Recall nal numbers surprised us
all 8022 signatures were collected Theleadership was told that the certications
will be done by December 16th howeverthe Election Department certied 4990 of
them in record time by Friday the 10th Therecall leadership is bafed and I understand
why This is the ofce that by Kopelman and
Paigersquos report identied numerous mistakes
bad management and disorganization Thisconsultant found that the election departmentof Lawrence mishandled the process of the2014 elections
The firm criticized the City ofLawrencersquos lack of organization andadequate education of election workersThey made recommendation that Riverared Rafael Tejeda The Kopelman and Paige
report listed numerous election violationsand procedures not being followed Thiscompany portrayed the Election Departmentas a department in shambles and in totalchaos
This report documented the lack ofadequate custody for ballots lack of ballot box security material being stored insideoverstuffed boxes they claimed that theElection Department allowed the publicaccess to the vault where ballots were beingheld on Election Day absentee ballots weresent to the wrong polling places absentee ballots not counted on election night andimproper handling of absentee ballots provisional ballots and numerous of otherchallenges That was year 2014 Now is 2015 not much has changed
in this department and I can understand therecall leadership preoccupation with the
process being fair and just It is no surpriseto me that they couldnrsquot find over threethousand voters they have been accused ofimproper and mishandling of ballots beforeThey didnrsquot count ballots on election nightwhy would we the public believe that theychecked over 8000 signatures in less thana week If in fact they ldquolookedrdquo at eachsignature this was done in less than 30 second
per signature IMPOSSIBLE
We the taxpayers of Lawrence deserve better service regardless whether you arecon or pro the recall The most egregiousmoment for me was when I read in theFacebook page of Riverasrsquos staff hintingthat they have won over the recall effort Or
how the numbers were out in the communitywhen this process was supposed to be a verycondential process
How can we believe in this departmentwith the kind of leaks that were releasedto the community Where is the integrityin the process For godrsquos sake I knew thenumbers before the numbers were made public Although the mayor red Tejeda
hired two of his friends and claimed tohave re structured the department nothinghas really changed This department is stilla mess and Friday conrmed it
The real fun begins now that the Boardof Registrars met on Monday December14 to certify the 4990 signatures that wereveried by the Election Department By
Wednesday at five orsquoclock both groupshave the option to file their objectionsMayor Rivera already said that he wantsan investigation on forgery and fraud eventhough at this point hersquos winning

There are those who think that the
internet came to revolutionize or rather
threaten journalism But in view of what it
is one must conclude that what journalism
needs is to revitalize itself are quality content
as if already at the time it was thought that
radio would unseat the newspaper and then
so did the TV nothing like that happened
So presumably that Internet todayalso is a stage of transition that will leadto genuine journalists to retrain becausequality information is imposed it is the
Journalism todayquality that can compete not sensationalism
The good journalism has to act as a
counter to express freely and not be complacent
with the powerful whether those powers are
advertisers and therefore its supporters
Good journalism has to do a revolutionfrom inside for strength even if it does notgenerate a prot because the benet cannot
be short term Journalists today have to beable to analyze things in depth before theyare communicated and not interested ina ood of information but truthful well
analyzed and explained information

Nadie estaacute inmune a los peligrosde la inuenza o lo que comuacutenmente se
conoce como la ldquogripardquo El antildeo pasado
en su reporte de febrero el Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten y EnfermedadesRespiratorias de los Centros para el Controly Prevencioacuten de Enfermedades (CDC)informoacute que el 61 de los maacutes afectadosfueron personas entre 18 y 64 antildeos de edad Con el anterior reporte el CDCdeshizo el mito de que soacutelo los nintildeos o las personas de la tercera edad son proclives aser afectados por el virus de la inuenza
Asimismo en ese mismo antildeo en la ciudadde Santa Ana una mujer en plenitud de su juventud a los 28 antildeos fallecioacute a causa deuna gripa croacutenica El deceso de esta persona llama muchola atencioacuten pero no es un caso aislado Lo
cierto es que situaciones como eacutesta han idoincrementando con el correr del tiempo Sitomamos en cuenta un periodo de 30 antildeos ndash
entre 1976 y 2006mdash los registros de muertea causa de la inuenza incrementaron desde
3000 a 49000 personas
iquestQueacute es lo que quiere decir el datoanterior Muy simple La inuenza es
una mal que no discrimina el color de lagente el sexo ni mucho menos la edad delas personas En un momento dado todos podemos ser viacutectimas si es que no tomamoslas medidas precautorias para contrarrestareste mal De todo el conjunto de personas quevivimos en los Estados Unidos a menudolas personas con bajos recursos econoacutemicosson los maacutes afectados y los maacutes propensosa tener siacutentomas de inuenza croacutenica
Lamentablemente algunos sectores de la poblacioacuten latina han tenido que soportarlos embates de la inuenza antildeo-tras-antildeo
debido a que en sus comunidades hay pocos programas de concientizacioacuten e informacioacutensobre los peligros de la inuenza Algunos
ni siquiera se enteran de que una vacuna puede ser el arma ideal para abatirla
De acuerdo a los datos del Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten del antildeo anteriorsolo 443 de los nintildeos latinos de seis
meses o mayores fueron vacunados contrala inuenza mientras que en la poblacioacuten
afroamericana es 438 A pesar de que
485 de los nintildeos anglosajones fueronvacunados este dato todaviacutea estaacute pordebajo de las metas establecidas por elgobierno nacional Las disparidades de vacunados entreuno y otro grupo eacutetnico es maacutes visibleen las poblaciones adultas 387 de los
afroamericanos fue vacunado en tanto quelos latinos de 350 y los anglosajones
467 Estos indicadores estadiacutesticos puedesrevertirse si tomamos conciencia denuestra salud Lo maacutes importante es
reconocer que todos somos potencialesviacutectimas de la inuenza Cuanto maacutes
precauciones tomemos y maacutes medidasaplicamos en nuestro diario vivir menores la probabilidad de enfermarnos con unagripa La Dra Anne Schuchat directoradel Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten yEnfermedades Respiratorias del CDC ysubdirectora general del Servicio de SaludPuacuteblica de los Estados Unidos dice que lamayor actividad del virus de la inuenza
se maniesta en las estas de Navidad y
Antildeo Nuevo entre diciembre y febrero Deacuerdo a sus estudios el problema puedeincluso durar hasta mayo En este sentido diversas organizacionesnacionales como el CDC estaacuten en plenacampantildea contra el virus de la inuenza

Nadie estaacute inmune a los peligrosde la inuenza o lo que comuacutenmente se
conoce como la ldquogripardquo El antildeo pasado
en su reporte de febrero el Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten y EnfermedadesRespiratorias de los Centros para el Controly Prevencioacuten de Enfermedades (CDC)informoacute que el 61 de los maacutes afectadosfueron personas entre 18 y 64 antildeos de edad Con el anterior reporte el CDCdeshizo el mito de que soacutelo los nintildeos o las personas de la tercera edad son proclives aser afectados por el virus de la inuenza
Asimismo en ese mismo antildeo en la ciudadde Santa Ana una mujer en plenitud de su juventud a los 28 antildeos fallecioacute a causa deuna gripa croacutenica El deceso de esta persona llama muchola atencioacuten pero no es un caso aislado Lo
cierto es que situaciones como eacutesta han idoincrementando con el correr del tiempo Sitomamos en cuenta un periodo de 30 antildeos ndash
entre 1976 y 2006mdash los registros de muertea causa de la inuenza incrementaron desde
3000 a 49000 personas
iquestQueacute es lo que quiere decir el datoanterior Muy simple La inuenza es
una mal que no discrimina el color de lagente el sexo ni mucho menos la edad delas personas En un momento dado todos podemos ser viacutectimas si es que no tomamoslas medidas precautorias para contrarrestareste mal De todo el conjunto de personas quevivimos en los Estados Unidos a menudolas personas con bajos recursos econoacutemicosson los maacutes afectados y los maacutes propensosa tener siacutentomas de inuenza croacutenica
Lamentablemente algunos sectores de la poblacioacuten latina han tenido que soportarlos embates de la inuenza antildeo-tras-antildeo
debido a que en sus comunidades hay pocos programas de concientizacioacuten e informacioacutensobre los peligros de la inuenza Algunos
ni siquiera se enteran de que una vacuna puede ser el arma ideal para abatirla
De acuerdo a los datos del Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten del antildeo anteriorsolo 443 de los nintildeos latinos de seis
meses o mayores fueron vacunados contrala inuenza mientras que en la poblacioacuten
afroamericana es 438 A pesar de que
485 de los nintildeos anglosajones fueronvacunados este dato todaviacutea estaacute pordebajo de las metas establecidas por elgobierno nacional Las disparidades de vacunados entreuno y otro grupo eacutetnico es maacutes visibleen las poblaciones adultas 387 de los
afroamericanos fue vacunado en tanto quelos latinos de 350 y los anglosajones
467 Estos indicadores estadiacutesticos puedesrevertirse si tomamos conciencia denuestra salud Lo maacutes importante es
reconocer que todos somos potencialesviacutectimas de la inuenza Cuanto maacutes
precauciones tomemos y maacutes medidasaplicamos en nuestro diario vivir menores la probabilidad de enfermarnos con unagripa La Dra Anne Schuchat directoradel Centro Nacional de Inmunizacioacuten yEnfermedades Respiratorias del CDC ysubdirectora general del Servicio de SaludPuacuteblica de los Estados Unidos dice que lamayor actividad del virus de la inuenza
se maniesta en las estas de Navidad y
Antildeo Nuevo entre diciembre y febrero Deacuerdo a sus estudios el problema puedeincluso durar hasta mayo En este sentido diversas organizacionesnacionales como el CDC estaacuten en plenacampantildea contra el virus de la inuenza
