Conservation Group Opposes Drought Legislation

Conservation groups say a bill introduced last week by a Cali-fornia Congressman to combat the drought would have dev-astating consequences for wildlife. House Resolution 2898, known as the “Western Water and American Food Security Act of 2015,” would allow more water to be pumped from the delta and sent to farms in the San Joaquin Valley.

A Message From Sam Liccardo: First Six Months

We’ve reached the half-year mark of my first year on a strong note. Amid a historic week for Supreme Court decisions, the California Supreme Court upheld San José’s inclusionary housing ordinance, a law I spearheaded in 2007 requiring housing developers to construct or pay fees enabling afford-able units. This makes San Jose the largest city in the nation with such a law. (Read more on our site)

This July 4, 2015 celebrates the 239th anniversary (since 1776) the acceptance of the U.S. Constitution and its ‘Bill of Rights’ which enumerates those written American ideals which per-mit all to have equal protec-tion under the law while en-joying ‘Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness’.

Many social and civil rights changes happening now re-quires an adjustment of one’s mind-set. Those who disagree and as individuals still have a tinge of ‘White Supremecy’ belief in their psyche, these folks need to begin to practice what many persons of color already do: keep your private bias & big-otry to yourselves. Unless, of course, you happen to be in a private conversation where you not only have the right to express yourself, but also, the responsibility to hear the perspectives of others.

What is being made ac-ceptable today by U.S. Su-preme Court decisions are the indications that many beliefs and practices held by some of us are really of-fensive and unacceptable to many of us who are target-ed. That is why ‘economic and racial profiling’ must be exposed in all its implica-tions. That is why we must, as a community, question the judicial system, begin-ning with law enforcement, which ends up having in-carcerated disproportion-ate residents of color (Black and Hispanic). That is why we must fault the U.S. Con-gress, who wields the power of the purse, with not ad-equately funding “Citizens

and Immigration Services” (CIS) so that the backlog of administrative work may be addressed. That is why citizens must fault the U.S. Congress, which has not adequately funded the Vet-eran’s Administration nor conducted effective over-sight monitoring to elimi-nate abuses impacting our ‘Wounded Warriors” and veterans.

Many additional items need mitigative attention, but the most egregious is the lack of any effective correc-tion of the current state of taxes administered by the IRS. The current inequi-ties embodied in the IRS tax codes are supportive of the inequities of wealth distribution and provide the basis of withholding re-sources needed by our dis-abled and impoverished. A very simple solution would be to set aside all current IRS Tax Codes and replace them with a single 15% Flat Tax on all personal incomes, especially those of all cor-porations now decreed to have the rights and respon-sibilities ‘personhood’ per the U.S. Supreme Court. And those “banksters” who plead ignorance when their employees take advantage of their authority to pracitce collusion (as with foreign money exchanges) and to ignore the equity mort-gage ownership of home buyers.....those ‘banksters’ must go to jail for an ap-propriate prison sentence....or again the U.S. Congress must ‘break up those six mega-bank organizations. In addition, the U.S. Con-gress must pass legislation which permits the moni-toring of all major financial transactions. Monitoring is not ‘regulation’....monitor-ing serves to expose wrong-doing (such as continuing to promote derivatives which almost caused global finan-cial collapse due to the lack

of trust and integrity. The good faith, trust and in-tegrity of the U.S. Treasury saved the day.

We all pay “transaction tax-es” commonly known as ‘sales taxes’. Most of us dutifully pay our personal income taxes. How can we all understand why no ‘transaction tax’ is col-lected on all those exchanges of stocks, bonds and other financial instruments? Why are major financial houses exempt from payment of a sales tax? A ‘Transaction Tax’ amounting to 0.003% on selected exchanges of wealth (all sales of stocks, bonds, other financial instruments) would permit payment of the national debt and sup-port pre-K-12 education, medical care, housing for the impoverised disadvantaged folks. When the 1% own and influence some 75% of all the wealth which they cannot spend during their lifetime, the redistribution of wealth must happen.....and today the only two methods are via taxes and altruistic gifts to nonprofit ‘pro bono publico’ NGO/CBO’s. Just look at what Warren Buffet and Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation have done once these few in-dividuals realized that their accumulated wealth did no good for anyone until it was ‘put into programs and ‘ good causes’ (e.g.. fight HIV, mea-sles, smallpox illnesses and promote education, etc.).

All members of Congress are all elected by citizens who participate in this democracy by voting. All of us who have not voted, and have kept their silence (actions minimize peer pressure), must exercise their choice to place this na-tion back on track: We, The People must take this nation back from the 1%. On July 4, 2015 decide to act on behalf of doing the greatest good for the greatest number with all those resources America al-ready possesses.

OPINION

Luisa Fernanda MonteroLA RED HISPANA

La salud y el bienestar co-mienzan en la mesa. Dicen por ahí, de hecho que “somos lo que comemos” y tal afir-mación no está alejada de la realidad. Hay que notar que más de 18 millones de his-panos en los Estados Unidos sufren de obesidad. La raíz del problema viene de la forma en que nos alimentamos y de los productos que consumimos.

El asunto es entonces, qué comer, cómo acceder a los mejores productos y no que-brarse en el intento. La respu-esta no está muy lejos, está tan cerca como pueda estar el mercado agrícola de su ciu-dad. Muchos de los mejores productos se dan por tempo-radas.

“Cuando uno quiere vivir sa-ludable, no tiene que comprar mucha comida, solo saber que comprar y escoger recetas y productos. Los mercados agrícolas te dan eso, lo fresco, necesario y saludable”, dice

María Aponte, bloguera de la página Verdelicias y visitante constante de los mercados agrícolas y las granjas.

Muchas veces nosotros los latinos, tenemos la idea de que los productos frescos y orgánicos son más caros. Aun así, los mercados agrícolas of-recen formas alternas de pago, como el programa guber-namental SNAP que ofrece ayuda económica a familias elegibles para proporcionar suplementos alimentarios y cupones. También se puede utilizar el sistema de pago EBT (por sus siglas en inglés), que es una tarjeta electrónica de beneficios otorgada por el gobierno a quienes califican.

Martín González, de La Plaza Farmers Market cuenta las ventajas de apoyar a los mercados agrícolas. “Hay un complemento oral, que es muy valioso para la comuni-dad”, dice Martín, “Los espa-cios como La Plaza, pueden también revolucionar, porque pueden contagiar a los indi-viduos y darle una idea a las personas, para que puedan crear su propio negocio.”

Lucia Stanton, productora para el mercado agrícola de Chaparral, New Mexico, ex-plica, “Debemos volver a los tiempos en que lo poco era más, no necesariamente ten-

emos que comprar más pro-ductos, porque son de mala calidad, han perdido sus nutrientes y sus vitaminas, a cada hora los productos pierden su valor nutritivo.”

Es bueno recordar enton-ces que: “a más fresco más sabroso”… y por supuesto más saludable.

Los mercados agríco-las traen los productos a nuestras mesas directa-mente de las granjas, sin químicos y en muchos casos son producidos por familias de nuestra comunidad.

“Las mercaderías no son tratadas con preservativos ni hormonas, y tampoco gené-ticamente modificadas,” dice Luciana Davidzon, bloguera y cocinera latina que asiste regularmente a los merca-dos agrícolas y participante del mercado The City Har-vest NYC.

Si te interesa tu salud y la de tu familia y quieres alimentarte sanamente, los mercados agrícolas de se-guro son una opción para que puedas llevar lo mejor a tu mesa. Visita la sección de mercados agrícolas en LaRedHispana.com y en-cuentra el mercado agrícola más cercano.

Throughout the end of May and into June, the Santa Clara County Office of Education (SCCOE) honors its student graduates from both the Spe-cial Education and Alterna-tive Education programs.

“These graduation ceremo-nies are a highlight of the year for everyone here at the County Office of Education,” said Jon R. Gundry, County Superintendent of Schools. “I greatly appreciate being able to welcome our kids and their families and to see firsthand how happy and proud they are at having accomplished this significant academic and personal milestone.”

On June 1, 82 students

graduated from the SCCOE’s Alternative Schools, includ-ing Blue Ridge, Odyssey, Os-borne, Terra Bella Academy, Snell Community and Edge Community schools and the independent study program. Superintendent Gundry and Judge Patrick Tondreau pro-vided the keynote remarks for the event, with three stu-

dent speakers also address-ing their peers, families and friends. Both the California Association of Latino Super-intendents and Administra-tors (CALSA) and ACSA (As-sociation of California School Administrators) awarded a total of seven scholarships to students in the graduating class. Graduates participated in a rose ceremony, during which they were given the op-portunity to share their rose with someone that had helped them to achieve their personal goals.

Twenty-nine students also graduated from the Special Education’s Connect Post-Secondary Program during a

ceremony held at the Quinlan Center in Cupertino. Superin-tendent Gundry and Dr. Mary Ann Dewan, Chief Schools Officer, assisted in the presen-tation of graduation certifi-cates to the students, who had completed their participation in a post-secondary transition program preparing them for their adult options. Ten stu-dents in the graduating class have been directly hired into jobs, with the rest of the stu-dents enrolled in a variety of adult programs.

This month, 13 students also graduated from the SCCOE’s Special Education Centers at the McCollam, Della Maggio-re and Gateway schools, and going on to adult programs. Additionally, two students in the Special Education pro-gram graduated from the SC-COE’s Foothill Program with their High School Diplomas, 12 students graduated from Erikson Center and two stu-dents from the County Jail received their High School di-plomas through the SCCOE’s Special Education home study program.

The career outlook for tech-nology professionals remains highly promising. With so many emerging employment opportunities, The White House announced the Tech-Hire initiative in March to encourage American cities to offer training to prepare the workforce for careers in grow-ing tech fields.

The United States has about five million open jobs today, which is more than at any point since 2001. Over half a million of those job openings are in information technology fields like software develop-ment, network administration and cybersecurity, many of which did not exist just a de-cade ago.

As an added incentive for Americans to pursue tech ca-reers, the average salary in a job that requires information tech-nology (IT) skills – whether in manufacturing, advertising, retail or banking – is 50 per-

cent higher than the average private-sector American job.

“Our information technology students today are enthusiastic about the future job,” says Dr. Rajin Koonjbearry, professor and cyber security expert at DeVry University. “Not only are traditional IT careers standing out, but increasing private in-formation online calls for cyber security experts to help compa-nies protect against threats.”

Here are some of the most valuable tech specializations and degree programs available to career seekers today:

1. Cyber SecurityCyber security has been list-

ed by The World Economic Forum as one of the top five global risks in terms of likeli-hood, and has been ranked as a top concern in federal chief in-formation officer surveys. The White House even released an executive order aimed at im-proving critical infrastructure cybersecurity.

Demand for cyber security professionals continues to rise, with the Bureau of Labor Sta-tistics predicting a 37 percent increase in information secu-rity analyst jobs through 2022.

To meet this demand, colleg-es and universities are starting to offer degrees in cyber secu-rity. In May, DeVry University unveiled a new Cyber Security Programming specialization within its Bachelor of Science in Computer Information Systems program, available on campus or online in select states.

The program includes Sys-tems Security Certified Practi-tioner (SSCP) preparation and exam facilitation, a key creden-tial employers may require in hiring cyber security profes-sionals that has been accred-ited by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).

2. Health Information Systems

Another fast-growing tech specialization is in health in-formation systems. The North American healthcare tech-nology market is predicted to grow significantly to more than $31 billion by 2017, up from approximately $22 bil-lion in 2012, according to Research and Markets’ North American Healthcare IT Mar-ket Report.

Demand for health informat-ics specialists is partly driven by the growing complexity of healthcare operations, govern-ment initiatives to promote IT in hospitals and the shift toward paperless billing and payment environments.

Students who earn a bach-elor’s degree in computer in-formation systems can pursue professional certification as a Certified Associate in Health-care Information and Man-agement (CAHIMS) to show employers their knowledge and skills.

3. Systems Analysis and Integration

Computer systems analysts play a vital role in researching, planning and recommend-ing software and systems that best meet an organization’s business requirements. These

analysts combine their knowl-edge of information technol-ogy and business to manage the organization’s overall com-puter system – from designing and developing new systems to helping networks run more ef-ficiently and effectively.

According to a new market report, the global market for system integration is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of nearly 11 per-cent from 2014 to 2020. Fol-lowing graduation, students who want to stand out from the competition can pursue a post-baccalaureate certificate in Information Systems and Management.

4. Web Development and Administration

The Bureau of Labor Statis-tics projects about 20 percent employment growth for Web developers by 2022. During

that period, about 28,500 new jobs will need to be filled in an industry that already has roughly 141,400 positions.

The expansion of e-com-merce is expected to fuel this high job growth in the coming decade. Companies need web developers who can design webpage layout and solve code problems, help expand their online retail presence and safe-guard the site and end users’ privacy.

Given the high job growth rates expected in these four areas, bachelor’s degree candi-dates are increasingly looking for programs that meet their future career aspirations. A specialized degree, especially when paired with a profes-sional certification valued by employers, can open doors to a rewarding career.

Americans are becoming more committed to diversity and inclusion than ever be-fore. They look to do business with companies that are truly diverse, too. Not only does this align with their values, it offers a distinct advantage: companies with more diverse teams are also top financial performers, according to McKinsey & Company re-search.

How do you know if you are buying from, or even working for, a truly diverse company and not one that only pre-tends to be? Here are some tips from Lorie Valle-Yañez, vice president and chief di-versity officer at Massachu-setts Mutual Life insurance Company (MassMutual) – a DiversityInc. 2015 Top 50 Company.

1. Look at leadershipDiversity is a strong value

that is woven into a com-pany’s culture. That culture is most often driven by the leaders at an organization. The best first step in de-termining if a company is truly diverse is to look at the makeup of those in leader-ship roles.

What is the makeup of the C-suite and board of direc-tors? Are women and differ-ent ethnicities represented?

In 2004, the majority of Fortune 100 companies had less than 30 percent Board diversity. By 2012 that num-ber only slightly increased to 31 percent, according to the 2012 Alliance for Board Di-versity Census.

2. Ask about initiativesDiversity is an ongoing ef-

fort that requires dedication. Before working with or for a company, ask about diversity initiatives and how the com-pany is structured to support a dedication to inclusion – both internally and external-ly – toward clients.

Is there a department and leader dedicated to serving the unique needs of diverse customers and employees? At MassMutual, the chief diversity officer supports cul-tural diversity for staff, sup-pliers and clients. Holistic ef-forts like these demonstrate a company’s ongoing commit-ment to diversity.

3. Investigate inclusionA culture of diversity is an

ongoing effort that involves all employees. When looking at the authenticity of a com-pany, inclusion is an impor-tant value. Company leaders must embrace diversity of thought and unique view-points while helping employ-ees to develop professionally and maintain high engage-ment at work.

One indication of inclusion at a company is the pres-ence of Employee Resource Groups. ERGs are great for promoting inclusion among all employees. Groups are created for people with simi-lar characteristics, such as gender and religion, and some are even interest-based, focusing on topics such as the environment or parenting. MassMutual has nine differ-ent ERGs that provide men-toring and volunteer oppor-tunities to employees, and at the same time are involved in supporting the company’s business strategy.

4. Seek strategic partnerships

A company that values di-versity and has a mind for the future will look for strategic partnerships that provide in-sight into niche markets and unique cultures. Find out if a company has memberships to diverse organizations that represent different markets and groups of people. Ad-ditionally, learn whether the company strives to work with others who are equally com-mitted to diversity.

A recent Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) report revealed that emer-gency department visits re-sulting from synthetic mari-juana more than doubled in just one year.

Most commonly known as Spice, synthetic cannabinoids go by many street names such as K2, Spice, Diamond, fake weed, Yucatan Fire, Moon Rocks and Skunk. The herb is often marketed as herbal incense and potpour-ri, and labeled “not for hu-man consumption,” making it legal to sell and for minors to purchase the drug. Manu-facturers sometimes include “organic” in the name to give the appearance of a natural product that does not harm health. Similar to how ciga-rettes were once marketed, Spice packaging often fea-tures cartoons and images appealing to the 12 to 18 age group, and the product can easily be purchased online, or in convenience stores or head shops.

What Makes Spice So Dangerous?

Spice (synthetic cannabi-noid) is a designer drug that is made with analogs or a chemical structure similar to commonly used illicit drugs. The composition of these products changes constantly, as manufacturers create new variations to get around leg-islation to make a specific compound illegal. The man-made chemicals are typically sprayed on a plant or herb (not marijuana) that is most commonly smoked, and mimics the effects of the psy-choactive ingredient in mari-juana. Because this product is labeled “not for human consumption,” the intended use is masked and produc-tion is not subject to quality control procedures or over-sight that would be applied to other drugs; what makes its way into the hands of teens may contain substances that can have serious health con-sequences. With no warning labels, young people are not aware that using these prod-ucts can be harmful or even deadly.

It is most often young men who reach the point of crisis and seek medical care for a range of symptoms that can include severe agitation, anx-iety, nausea, vomiting, rapid heartbeat, elevated blood pressure, tremors, seizures, hallucinations, paranoia and unresponsiveness.

Bath Salts: Another Threat

Bath salts are another de-signer drug marketed to and used by youth in a manner similar to Spice. Bath salts are also used by those 20 to 29 years old. Known com-monly as Bliss, Bloom, Ivory Wave and Scarface, bath salts contain synthetic cathinones similar to amphetamines. Sometimes marketed as jew-elry cleaner, plant food or phone screen cleaner, bath salts are presumed to contain methylenedioxypyrovalerone (MDPV) and other similar chemicals, although there is uncertainty because tests do not always detect these sub-stances. When bath salts are used, the effects can include agitation, aggression and violent behavior, anxiety and panic attacks, paranoia, con-fusion, hallucinations and delusions, psychosis, chest pains, increased heart rate, heightened blood pressure and sometimes suicidal ide-ation or suicide attempts.

Undetectable In Drug Screens

The synthetic designer drugs are also popular with people who are subject to mandatory drug testing. Al-though some of the psycho-active compounds can be de-tected in tests, many routine drug screens do not pick up these chemicals.

While many people are aware of the basic tenants of good oral care, thousands of people still don’t floss their teeth -- and they lie about it. According to a new national survey, more than a quarter (27 percent) of U.S. adults admit they lie to their dentists about how often they floss their teeth. Along with twice-daily brushing and receiving an annual comprehensive periodon-tal evaluation, daily flossing is a critical component in the prevention of periodontal disease, commonly referred to as gum disease.

The Harris Poll, on behalf of the American Academy of Periodontology (AAP), was conducted online among more than 2,000 U.S. adults and among the top 10 U.S. markets. The AAP is using the survey results to urge all Americans to “Love the Gums You’re With” and to raise awareness of periodontal disease -- a chronic inflammatory disease caused when bacteria in plaque grow below the gum line, leading to swelling, irritation, receding gums and tooth loss. Periodontal disease has been linked to many other chronic diseases, such as diabetes, cardiovas-cular disease, rheumatoid arthritis, Alzheimer’s disease and even cancer. Despite its prevalence, periodontal disease is rarely discussed, resulting in a lack of urgency, awareness and education among the public.

“There’s clearly more work to be done when it comes to educating Americans about the im-portance of oral hygiene in maintaining healthy gums. There are more than 500 bacterial spe-cies that can be found in plaque, and brushing alone does not remove the bacteria that live below the gum line,” says AAP President Joan Otomo-Corgel, DDS, MPH. “The good news about periodontal disease is that with proper and timely care, it’s treatable and often reversible. If a person has been diagnosed with or is at risk for periodontal disease, a periodontist has the training and expertise to determine the best course of treatment.”

Patients should discuss their periodontal health with a dental professional who can make a referral to a periodontist if necessary.

As the weather warms and schedules become packed with summer sports and activities, it can be easy to let your heart healthy diet slide to the bottom of the priority list. With a dash of planning and a spoonful of creativity, summer meals can taste as good as they are nutritious and give you the fuel you need to take advan-tage of the wonderful weather.

Here are some tips for keeping your meals and snacks heart healthy in the summer months:

Go Lean with Protein

Being on the go doesn’t mean you need to sacrifice muscle-building protein in the summer. For dinner options, choose lean meats, poul-try or fish. Select lean proteins for refreshing and easy-to-make sand-wiches.

Become a Fruit Fanatic

Summer is the season for fresh fruits that are chock full of vitamins, min-erals and fiber. They make a great substitute for traditional desserts that are high in fat and calories. Wash and slice any combination of juicy melons, berries, or other fruits and add them to your favorite yogurt or sorbet and blend for a cooling and healthy treat. Larger fruits such

as peaches or pineapple also pair nicely with grilled items.

Streamline Salads

Salads are also a go-to for the sum-mer months but accompanying oily dressing and cheese can load them down with fat and calories. Choose low-fat or light dressing options and steer clear from cream-based diet spoilers. Minimize added sodium and fat by sprinkling low-fat varieties such as Swiss, Mozzarella, Parmesan or cottage cheese.

With these guidelines in mind, your summer meals will be every bit as heart healthy as they are tasty!

FAMILY FEATURES

Change will Integrate

Leadership of Operations and

Community Health Focus

Santa Clara County CALIFORNIA

Beginning this month Sara Cody, M.D. will step into the role of the Director of Pub-lic Health for the County of Santa Clara, while continu-ing in her role as County Health Officer, which she has held since October 2013. This change will streamline and integrate leadership of the department following the departure of former director Daniel Peddycord.

“Dr. Cody has extensive knowledge of the communi-ty, the health department and a great deal of public health expertise,” said County Exec-utive Jeffrey V. Smith, M.D., J.D. “Her appointmentto the newly redesigned, dual role of Director and Health Officer will provide a seam-less transition for the Public Health Department, and the community will benefit from her leadership.”

In her dual role as Health Of-ficer and Health Department Director, Dr. Cody’s duties will include providing public health leadership for all of Santa Clara County, includ-ing leading the development of public health policy and programs, assessing and re-porting on the health status of the community, and en-forcing local health orders and ordinances, while over-seeing the administration of a 450 person public health department.

The decision to make this structural change, uniting

the roles of Public Health Director and Health Officer, grew out of a desire to align the legal authorities and re-sponsibilities for protecting the public’s health with the operational functions of the department. This is a com-mon organizational struc-ture for local health depart-ments in California.

“I would like to thank the County Executive, the Direc-tor of the Health and Hos-pital System, and the Board of Supervisors for entrusting me the tremendous responsi-bility and opportunity to lead Santa Clara County’s Public Health Department,” said Dr. Sara Cody. “I am look-ing forward to continuing to serve the people of Santa Clara County by ensuring that we have a top tier public health department working to keep our community safe and healthy.”

Dr. Cody holds a Bachelor’s degree in Human Biol-ogy from Stanford Univer-sity. She earned her Doctor of Medicine from Yale Univer-sity School of Medicine.

Following an Internship and Residency in Internal Medi-

cine at Stanford University Hospital, Dr. Cody com-pleted a two-year fellowship in Epidemiology and Pub-lic Health, as an Epidemic Intelligence Service (EIS) Officer with the Centers for Disease Control and Preven-tion (CDC).

She joined the Public Health Department in Santa Clara County in 1998 and served as the County County’s Communicable Disease Controller/Deputy Health Officer. In this role, she oversaw surveillance and investigation of 83 re-portable diseases, conducted investigations on outbreaks, participated in planning for public health emergencies, infectious diseases, and bio-terrorism, and responded to SARS, H1N1 and other public health emergencies. She was appointed County Health Officer in October 2013.

Dr. Cody is a Santa Clara County native. She grew up in Palo Alto, where she cur-rently resides with her fam-ily. Dr. Cody’s appointment is effective July 6, 2015.

After calling for streamlined regulations in April, San José Mayor Sam Liccardo, Santa Clara Valley Water District Chair Gary Kremen, Santa Clara Mayor Jaime Matthews, and State Senator Jim Beall have succeeded in achieving fast-tracked regulations for the ex-pansion of drought-proof purified water for groundwater replenishment when Senate Bill 88 was signed into law by Governor Brown last Wednesday.

Senate Bill 88, as part of the State budget, expedites the installation of water pipelines along existing thoroughfares like City streets. Streamlining the pipelines will save mil-lions in regulatory clearance and speed up the project by at least a year. The bill brings the City and region closer to groundwater replenishment with purified water. When built out, the project will bolster Santa Clara County’s water supply by as much as 35,000 acre feet per year or enough water for 175,000 people per year.

Project Background:

With the current water supply crisis, San José Mayor Sam Liccardo, Board Chair Gary Kremen, along with Mayors from Santa Clara, Campbell and Los Gatos worked with leaders in Sacramento on SB 88, particularly to carve out language for the acceleration of recycled water reuse, called Indirect Potable Reuse (“IPR”).

IPR is the advanced purification of recycled water, which then is used to fill groundwater recharge ponds, allowing it to naturally filter through an additional environmental bar-rier of sand, gravel and rock, and eventually restoring depleted underground aquifers.

A joint City of San José and Santa Clara Valley Water District “South Bay Water Recy-cling Master Plan,” calls for IPR build out, with both entities ready to begin construc-tion in order to provide a timely solution to the current drought. The passage of SB 88 will streamline the planning process for the project and shave off one or two years off the completion schedule, thus increasing the region’s ability to respond to the drought.

The regional Master Plan contemplates 4 phases of program development, based on the location of the percolation ponds where the treated water will be incorporated into the aquifers. An accelerated schedule was developed based on the urgent need for drought response, and includes the following development timelines:

The capital cost of Phase I, the Ford Ponds Purification Center, is estimated at $64.4 M, and an additional $40M for Reservoir Upgrades needed in the South Bay Water Recycle system to support water supply to the Ford Ponds Purification Center. The construction of Phases 2 through 4 will collectively cost approximately $522 million, and will require a substantial expansion of the capacity of the current Silicon Valley Advanced Water Purifi-cation Center by the District.

San Jose and Oakland City Employees Heed Mayors’

Call to Ride During Nation-al Bike Month in May

OaklandCALIFORNIA

However you measure Team Bike Challenge’s im-pact — whether it’s the num-ber of people who partici-pated, the amount of green miles cycled, the pounds of carbon dioxide removed from the air or the aggregate calories burned — the friend-ly competition that attracts commuters from across the nine-county Bay Area broke all records in 2015. A total of 11,724 Bay Area residents were inspired to take part in the month-long cycling com-petition that pays big divi-dends for the environment and their own good health, a 22 percent increase over the 9,630 who participated in TBC in 2014 and an all-time high for the program. While many were hardcore cyclists, some were novices who were trying bicycle commuting for the first time.

The number of riders who committed to riding their bikes to and from work, as well as for errands, shopping and the like, throughout the month of May tells only part of the story. By the close of competition on May 31, over 1,600 teams (compared to 1,370 in 2014), each com-posed of up to five riders and representing 535 local com-panies, logged an incredible 481,734 miles — saving over 400,000 pounds of CO2 and

burning close to 20 million calories.

Adding a new twist to the competition, Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf challenged San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo to a Bike-Off, to see which of the two cities’ employees could log the most miles during the month of May. Both may-ors sit on the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC), a presenting sponsor of the region’s annual Bike to Work program that includes Team Bike Challenge.

“Bike commuting is an inexpensive and healthy commute option that sup-ports our goals of reducing congestion and air pollution in our region,” said Mayor Schaaf. “As a new mayor and new member of the MTC, this friendly challenge with Mayor Liccardo was a fun way to promote Bike to Work Month and show people the benefits of the no-pollute commute. I’m thrilled to celebrate the hardworking Oakland and San Jose em-ployees who together biked over 10,000 miles over the course of the month, and I want to especially acknowl-edge the employees at our Oakland libraries who did more than their share to make sure Oakland came out on top in this year’s Mayors’ Challenge.”

City employees in Oakland and San Jose lived up to the challenge by racking up im-pressive numbers — Oak-land with 7,110 miles biked and San Jose with 2,622 miles. While Oakland won

the bragging rights for this year, San Jose has pledged to come back even stronger in 2016.

“Everyone who participates in Team Bike Challenge is a winner,” said Mayor Licca-rdo. “The Bay Area benefits from the savings of harmful emissions and participants gain the health benefits of in-creased physical activity.”

Team Bike Chal-lenge Winners When all the tallying was done, San Francisco’s par-tycar.com team (2014’s sec-ond place winner) won the regionwide team competi-tion with an incredible 9,274 miles biked and 398,761 calories burned. The individ-ual winner in the Team Bike Challenge competition was the remarkable Peter Chang, also from partycar.com, who rode 3,114 miles and burned a whopping 133,898 calo-ries. Second place in the re-gional team competition went to the Resolvers from Santa Clara County, with 6,425 miles and 276,266 calories burned. Third place went to Sun Blinding, also of Santa Clara County (also 2014’s third place winner), with 3,659 miles biked and 157,255 calories expended.

Partycar.com also domi-nated the individuals’ com-petition, with team captain Peter Colijn coming in sec-ond place (2,132 miles and 91,667 calories) and team member Cordelia Link tak-ing third (1,626 miles and 69,897 calories).

Oakland Recycles will launch important new trash, compost and recycling servic-es on July 1 as Oakland takes a huge step toward its Zero Waste goal to keep all recycla-ble and compostable material out of landfills.

The new services and fea-tures include new natural gas-powered service trucks that run cleaner and quieter; new ways for all residents to easily dispose of mattresses, furniture and other bulky items; and for the first time ever, guaranteed compost ser-vice for condo and apartment residents.

“I’m proud of Oakland for once more demonstrating world-class leadership to pro-tect our environment,” Mayor Libby Schaaf said. “What is most important about this next step is that we’re taking it together: these efforts to protect our environment can only be successful with the remarkable commitment and participation of Oakland’s residents and businesses.”

Effective July 1, Waste Man-agement of Alameda County, Inc. (WMAC) will be the ex-clusive provider of trash and compost service for Oakland residents and businesses. California Waste Solutions (CWS) will be the exclusive provider of recycling service for residents. Recycling for businesses remains an open market in which Oakland business owners can shop for the recycling service provider they prefer.

The new services also in-clude important partnerships with Civicorps and the East Bay Municipal Utility District (EBMUD). Civicorps is an Oakland non-profit that has worked since 1983 to provide meaningful environmental work experiences and educa-tional opportunities for local youth. Civicorps and WMAC are working together to pro-vide Oakland youths with job training opportunities in operations and administra-tive services that can lead to good-paying union jobs in Alameda County. In addition,

EBMUD, a regional utility headquartered in Oakland, is working with the City and WMAC to process the com-postable material collected from local businesses right here in Oakland.

“Oaklanders care about the environment. The new Zero Waste services call on Oak-landers and businesses to abide by standards that will improve our air quality, our neighborhoods and our en-vironmental footprint,” City Council President Lynette Gibson McElhaney said. “I know my constituents are es-pecially excited for increased services to address the illegal dumping epidemic.”

Highlights of new services include:

·Compost service to recycle food scraps and yard trim-mings now covering all resi-dences, including apartment buildings and condos over five units.

·Four free bulky drop-off events for residents to take place each year, on the first Saturday of every February, May, August and November.

·New bulky pickup service for condo and apartment buildings.

·Wider variety of cart-size options for residents to right-size containers for all materi-als, including 20-gallon carts for trash, compost and recy-cling.

·Brand new collection trucks powered by natural gas to im-prove air quality and reduce noise.

In addition to the new ser-vices under Oakland’s leader-ship, WMAC will build and operate Alameda County’s first large-scale compost facil-ity, to compost material not just from Oakland, but from around the region.

Full service information including Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs), rate ta-bles, dates of informational meetings and other ways to communicate with service providers is available at www.OaklandRecycles.com.

San Bernardino CALIFORNIA

Gold mining enthusiasts are disappointed and environmentalists are cheering after a judge ruled Wednesday a destructive type of river mining will not be allowed in California this summer.

The San Bernardino County Superior Court ruled that a 2009 ban on suction dredge mining will remain in place. Jonathan Evans, environmental health legal director and senior attorney with the Center for Biological Diversity, says the equipment used in suction dredge mining does significant damage when users sift through stream beds.

“This digs up sediment and destroys a lot of habitat for salmon, which are already under incredible amounts of stress in California because of the drought,” says Evans.

Miners dispute the threat to fish and say small-scale gold mining is not harmful.

Evans says suction dredge mining can also inadvertently poison water by releasing mercury that’s lain underground since the days of the first California Gold Rush.

“There are no restrictions on other types of gold mining like hand panning, but this type of suction dredge gold mining is particularly harmful,” he says.

A previous survey conducted by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife found 80 percent of suction dredge miners engage in the activity as a weekend hobby, not as a means to make a living or make money.

Railroad companies soon won’t be able to carry oil in California unless they have a safety plan - and put aside lots of money to cover any future spills. That’s because a federal judge in San Fran-cisco dismissed an industry lawsuit last week against California’s new railroad safety law.Patti Goldman, managing attorney for Earthjustice, said the pre-

cautions required are com-mon sense.

“All other industries, like the tankers that carry the oil, the refiners, the pipelines, all of them prepare these oil-spill response plans,” she aaid. “It’s time for the railroads to do the same.”

Railroad companies had argued that federal law pre-empts states’ regulation of the railroads. Goldman said the companies now will

have more incentive to get the training, equipment and communications systems in place to prevent the worst-case scenario.

“They improve their prac-tices. They can’t get financial assurances if they’re being re-ally risky,” she said. “And they figure out how to handle the oil better so that they won’t have a spill.” California’s rail-road safety law will go into effect once regulations are finalized.

Sacramemto CALIFORNIA

- Election reforms that in-troduced an independent redistricting commission in California will remain in place, following a U.S. Su-preme Court decision to up-hold a similar redistricting system in Arizona.

California’s independent redistricting commission was part of a sweeping initia-tive package passed in 2008, which replaced a system in which politicians often drew legislative districts to favor incumbents. The redistrict-ing commission certified new electoral district maps in 2011.

Stephen Spaulding, policy counsel with the grassroots advocacy group Common

Cause, says the Supreme Court decision is a victory for voters.

“This was a sweeping af-firmation of the California model, which allows citizens to draw the lines rather than legislators picking and choos-ing their voters,” he says.

The California reforms also included a switch to an “open” primary, intended to draw more centrist candi-dates that can appeal to the entire electorate, instead of an extreme wing or faction of a political party. Since the changes, Democrats have

added to their majority in Sacramento.

Kathay Feng, national re-districting director of Com-mon Cause in Los Angeles, says the open, public redis-tricting process has put an end to so-called “backroom deals” meant to create safe seats.

“There were more than a dozen incumbents who ei-ther decided not to run, or who were defeated in elec-tions because they didn’t have the guaranteed re-elec-tion that they used to when district lines were drawn by the Legislature,” she says.

Had the decision gone the other way, Feng says Califor-nia’s election system would have been thrown into dis-array. The next round of re-districting is scheduled for 2021, the year after the next census.

SIERRA CLUB

Washington, DC — La Corte Suprema de Estados Unidos se puso hoy del lado de los contaminadores y revirtió los históricos Estándares de Mercurio y Contaminantes Atmosféricos (MATS) de la Agencia de Protección Medioambiental (EPA), los cuales están diseñados para protegernos a todos contra la peligrosa contaminación de las plantas de carbón.

El dictamen de 5 a 4 recha-za la decisión de la Corte de Apelaciones y envió el caso de vuelta a la EPA para revisar los costos de los estándares para la industria. También instruyó a la Corte de Apela-ciones del Circuito de DC determinar si los estándares seguirán vigentes mientras la EPA completa los análisis requeridos.

Las protecciones MATS, la cuales se finalizaron en 2012, requieren que las plantas de combustión de carbón reduzcan sus emisiones de mercurio en un 91% y re-stringir decididamente otros contaminantes, como arsé-

nico, cromo y gas de ácido hidroclorídrico, los cuales se relacionan con un largo rosario de enfermedades. Estas protecciones están dis-eñadas fundamentalmente para proteger a los más vul-nerables de nuestra sociedad, como los niños, los ancianos y las comunidades de color que sufren desproporciona-damente las consecuencias de esta contaminación car-bonera.

Como respuesta a la de-cisión de la Corte Suprema, Mary Anne Hitt, directora de la Campaña Más Allá del Carbón del Sierra Club, emitió el siguiente comuni-cado:

“Como madre, estoy in-dignada por la disposición de la Corte de retrasar la implementación de las pro-tecciones que reforzarían el derecho de todos los niños a crecer amparados, salu-dables y protegidos contra la contaminación. Las regula-ciones que rechazó la corte protegerían a nuestros niños de daños neurológicos per-manentes causados por la exposición al mercurio, y hu-bieran evitado unas 11,000

muertes prematuras, 4,700 ataques cardíacos y 130,000 ataques de asma al año.

“En términos prácticos, la decisión no va a resucitar las esperanzas de supervivencia de la industria carbonera ni retrasar la transición hacia una economía de energía limpia. La mayoría de las compañías eléctricas ya han tomado decisiones para cumplir con los estándares. Sólo unas cuantas decenas de plantas de carbón operan hoy sin controles de contami-nación de mercurio y con-taminantes del aire ni planes para instalarlos.

“Sin embargo, esta lamenta-ble decisión afecta a los niños y las mujeres embarazadas —sobre todo los de origen his-pano— ya que las compañías eléctricas querrán retrasar aún más el cumplimiento de las protecciones o usarlo como excusa para no instalar controles contra la contami-nación. Ya es hora de actuar para eliminar la perjudicial contaminación sin retraso para que los niños de todo el país crezcan seguros y salu-dables”.

Doug Moss & Roddy Scheer EARTHTALK

While no one questions that California is in the midst of one of the worst droughts in recent history, the jury is still out as to why, at least accord-ing to some conservatives like former Hewlett Packard CEO and 2016 Republican Presidential hopeful Carly Fiorina.

This past April, Fiorina told talk show host Glenn Beck that California’s drought was a “man-made disaster” caused by “liberal environ-mentalists” who blocked the construction of appropriate reservoirs and other infra-structure that could have helped prevent the current crisis.

The vast majority of the state’s 1,400 dams and res-ervoirs were built more than four decades ago. According to FoxNews, environmental-ists “have since stopped the construction of water storage and delivery systems through legal and political actions” while fighting “to ensure that captured water is released into streams and the ocean—rather than the water deliv-ery system—in order to boost fish populations and dilute the salinity of the delta.”

Conservatives are particu-larly incensed about releas-ing water from the state’s

control to help a small num-ber of fish species already on the brink of extinction anyway. Priority #1 for state wildlife officials has been protection of the endangered delta smelt, a three inch long minnow that feeds on plank-ton and has a tough time sur-viving passage through the pumps of California’s exist-ing water diversion system. Since the fish was listed as endangered in 1993, biolo-gists have tried to maintain a friendlier environment for it by withholding fresh river runoff that would otherwise go to homes, businesses and agricultural operations across the state. The state has flushed upwards of 1.4 trillion gallons of freshwater into the ocean since 2008 to protect delta smelt from the water system pumps. But de-spite these herculean efforts, delta smelt look to be headed for extinction anyway.

“In California, fish and frogs and flies are really impor-tant,” said Fiorina. “California is a classic case of liberals be-ing willing to sacrifice other people’s lives and livelihoods at the altar of their ideology.” She went on to tell MSNBC that whatever California does to address climate change at this point won’t make a bit of difference: “A single state, or single nation acting alone can make no difference at all, that’s what the scientists say,” she said. “We’re disabling our own economy and not hav-

ing any impact at all on cli-mate change.”

“Droughts are nothing new in California, but right now, 70 percent of California’s rainfall washes out to sea be-cause liberals have prevented the construction of a single new reservoir or a single new water conveyance sys-tem over decades, during a period in which California’s population has doubled,” added Carly Fiorina. “This is the classic case of liberals be-ing willing to sacrifice other people’s lives and livelihoods at the altar of their ideology.”

Of course, environmental-ists counter that blaming them for their efforts to pre-serve and protect landscapes, hydrological flows and wild-life is nothing more than a smokescreen to divert atten-tion from the real culprits in California’s current drought woes: climate change due to man-made carbon emissions and our profligate water us-age habits.

Michael Peña is one of the busiest actors working in Hollywood today. The star of multiple Academy Award-nominated films, Michael’s meteoric rise has taken him from bit parts in in-dependent films, to establishing himself as a major Hollywood actor when he starred in two Best Picture nominees in 2004, Crash, and Million Dollar Baby.

Earl Ofari Hutchinson NEW AMERICA MEDIA

Former GOP presiden-tial candidate Mitt Romney says take it down. Present GOP presidential candidate Jeb Bush says take it down. South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley will say a quali-fied take it down. The “it” is the Confederate Flag. They now want the flag removed from the South Carolina State House.

A year ago Romney, Bush, and Haley would not have dared say the flag must go. In fact, Haley vigorously defended the flag waving proudly at the state house during her reelection bid in 2014 and flatly stated before that the flag should stay. The hideous Charleston church massacre and the loud clam-or again by civil rights activ-ists and a wide swath of the public to dump the flag ex-plains their sharp reversal.

The flag, of course, should go and should have gone a long time ago when the NAACP did everything from calling for a boycott of the state to mass protests to get the flag scrapped. But it still stands and there’s little rea-son this time around to think much will change.

The reason is not hard to find. The defenders, and there are countless numbers of them South and North, will not budge from their stock argument that the Confederate flag is merely a symbol of Southern history, pride and heritage, and has absolutely no political or so-cial connotations, let alone intended as a symbol of slav-ery and a prop for racism? This is a bold faced distortion of you want to be charitable. Or, if you don’t, it’s a flat out lie.It is a blatant display of bigotry and racist defiance that symbolizes slavery and black oppression and is a di-rect slap in the face of blacks a century and a half after the

South was vanquished on the battlefield?

Yet, the brutal reality is that for decades, the Confeder-ate flag, or some variation of it, has either flown or been displayed or embedded in state flags in Mississippi, Georgia, North Carolina, and Alabama and in decades past in other Southern states. Thousands of motor vehicle owners have requested per-sonalized license plates with the Sons of Confederate Vet-erans logo which embeds the Confederate flag in it for their cars and trucks in Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, Mary-land, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee.

And thousands of white motorists tool down the state and city highways in parts of the South with the Confederate flag decal on their windows and bum-pers. Does that tag them as a racist? Some are, and they embrace the flag to puff up their unabashed racism. But for many other South-ern whites, the flag and its association with Southern history, is a genuine source of pride and identification. for many young whites that emblazon the flag on their at-tire, wave it at rock concerts, or football games, and other sporting events, it’s just a hip, in-crowd, stitch of cloth that’s little more than a chic fun and games display.

They know little and could care less about what the flag meant, and the racial oppres-sion that the flag has sym-bolized. They know nothing about the defiance of South-ern legislatures and gover-nors that dredged the flag up in the 1950s and adopted variations of it in their state flags as a blatant, open rebel-lion against court ordered integration in schools and public facilities.

But no matter what the motive of the flag defend-

ers, whether it be pride, ignorance, racism, or just youthful style, the NAACP and civil rights leaders that have fought ferocious battles against the display of the flag on public property, at taxpay-er expense, and that includes thousands of African-Amer-ican state taxpayers, stress that the flag undeniably was the symbol of a region that drenched the nation in blood for four years to defend val-ues, a way of life, an economy and a political system that had slavery as its bedrock. And for decades after was a symbol of the South’s rigid domination and brute force control of African-Ameri-cans.

The two wildly clashing views of the flag’s meaning are again on full display in the aftermath of the Charles-ton massacre. Unlike in times past when the debate over the flag has flared, no South Carolina state legislator has so far publicly come out with a full throated defense of the flag. However, it’s not neces-sary. The majority of them belief that the flag stands for what the South was and still is all about. That belief runs far too deep for even a shock-ing massacre to unhinge. The flag will be ridiculed, as-sailed, and burned. But it will likely stay and not just at a state house but in the minds and hearts of far too many.

Team Set to Recognize Silver

Anniversary With Commemorative

Logos, Special Events, Alumni Appearances,

Special “Heritage” Game Jersey, Fan Contests and More

SAN JOSE

On Monday the San Jose Sharks officially launched the beginning of their 25th National Hockey League season, one day following the 25th anniversary of the June 28, 1990 groundbreaking of SAP Center at San Jose (then San Jose Arena).

Over the franchise’s first 25 years in the Bay Area, the Sharks have been one of the most successful, innova-tive and recognizable sports brands on the planet, dating back to their groundbreaking logo and the team’s iconic use of the color teal.

“The San Jose Sharks have established a proud and sto-ried history in our first 25 years in the National Hockey League,” said Sharks Chief Operating Officer John Tor-tora. “It is our intention to honor and showcase that his-tory this season in detailed fashion through a variety of activities. Most importantly, we want to thank and rec-ognize our devoted and pas-sionate fans, who have served as the driving force behind our franchise and the inspi-ration for the more than 300 players who have donned the Sharks uniform.”

Today, the team unveiled the details of many exciting platforms designed to honor their silver anniversary and celebrate 25 successful years in the Bay Area, many of which have been crafted in

consultation with original Sharks marketing executive Matt Levine.

Throughout the 2015-16 National Hockey League sea-son, the San Jose Sharks will honor and fondly recall their historic and proud past, in-cluding; the team’s inception in 1991; the global frenzy cre-ated by the team’s renowned logo and revolutionary use of the color teal; the long list of talented players and char-acters that have worn the Sharks sweater; the impact the San Jose Sharks have had on the City of San Jose and its surrounding communi-ties; the immense growth of the game of hockey in the Bay Area; and most impor-tantly, the unbridled support and passion of Sharks fans all across the globe.

Several of the team’s com-memorative 25th anniversa-ry logos were unveiled today via the team’s social media channels. The primary 25th anniversary logo features a new, “swimming” Shark with an exposed tail hovering above a diamond-encrusted “25”. This mark will be worn as a patch on the team’s game

sweaters throughout the 2015-16 season.

Also released today were some of the team’s second-ary commemorative marks, one of which reflects the franchise’s heritage and the transition from the team’s original Shark logo to today’s more-defined and three-di-mensional mark.

A third new mark depicts the isolated “swimming” Shark, which modifies the team’s primary crest with the addition of the exposed tail.

For a limited number of games during the 2015-16 season, the team will wear a newly-created “Heritage Jer-sey.” This new jersey was de-veloped by Terry Smith, who created the original Sharks logo and uniforms, and many of the other iconic designs as-sociated with the team.

According to Smith, “The Heritage Jersey represents the present of the Sharks franchise while paying stark homage to its past.”

The Heritage Jersey, along with the game schedule of

when it will be worn, will be unveiled at a later date.

From the franchise’s first fan favorites like Doug Wil-son, Arturs Irbe, Kelly Kisio, Pat Falloon, Igor Larionov, Jamie Baker and Sergei Makarov, through today’s stars in Patrick Marleau, Joe Thornton, Joe Pavelski, Lo-gan Couture, Brent Burns and Marc-Edouard Vlasic - and everyone in between - Sharks players have forged a life-long relationship with Sharks fans over the course of 25 years which will be richly revisited this season.

During the 2015-16 cam-paign, fans will have the op-portunity to re-connect with players from the team’s past as many former members will be brought back to SAP Center and recognized. A full list of participating players and a schedule of events will be released at a later date.

Other engagement activities planned for the 25th anniversary

season include:

•A season-long season ticket holder recognition

program25th anniversary giveaway nights •Fan contests

•Fan-selected Sharks all-time first and second team

•Fan participation throw-back nights

•Enhanced 25th anni-versary-themed content on

sjsharks.com Much more to be an-

nounced

A wide variety of Sharks-themed 25th anniversary merchandise will be available at the Sharks Store at SAP Center beginning on Mon., July 6.

The Sharks 25th anniver-sary season begins at Los Angeles on Thurs., Oct. 7 and the team’s home opener will be on Sat., Oct. 10 at SAP Center at San Jose.

Jones, 25, was acquired by Boston in a draft day trade with the Los Angeles Kings.

“Martin was at the top of our list of players that we had targeted,” said Wilson. “We’re extremely excited to have him on board.”

The six-foot-four, 190-pound Jones has ap-peared in 34 career NHL games, all with Los Angeles, posting a 16-11-2 record with a 1.99 goals-against average and a .923 save percentage. He was a member of the 2014 Stanley Cup winning squad.

Last season, he posted a 4-5-2 record with a 2.25 goals-against average and a .906 save percentage with three shutouts.

In 2013-14, Jones won his first eight NHL starts, tying an NHL record for consecu-tive wins to start a career. In

that span, he posted an 8-0-0 record with a 0.98 goals-against average and three shutouts and was named NHL Co-Rookie of the Month for Dec. 2013. He was the first NHL goaltender to allow an average of less than one goal in each of his first eight games.

Jones spent parts of four seasons with Manchester of the American Hockey League (2010-2014), where he had an 84-57-10 record in 158 games, a 2.42 goals against average and a .920 save percentage, along with 12 shutouts. He was named to the AHL All-Star Team in 2014 and 2011

Internationally, Jones rep-resented Canada at the 2015 World Championships, post-ing a 2-0 record and a 1.50 goals-against average and a .921 save percentage, help-ing the squad capture a gold medal. He also played for Canada at the 2010 World Junior Championships, cap-turing a silver medal. He played in two games, going 1-1 with a 2.30 goals-against average and a .917 save per-centage.

Kuraly was originally draft-ed by San Jose in the fifth round (133rd overall) of the 2011 NHL Draft and is en-tering his senior season with Miami University.

Cheezburger, una red de Inter-net líder dedicada al humor que es conocida por sus populares sitios web tales como I Can Has Cheez-burger?, Know Your Meme, FAIL Blog y Memebase, anunció hoy el lanzamiento de su último empren-dimiento, Eres Todo un Loquillo. El nuevo sitio, junto con aplica-ciones iOS y Android, presentará contenido divertido en español y estará dirigido a audiencias hispanas tanto en Estados Unidos como en el extranjero. Durante el período previo al lanzamiento, Eres Todo un Loquillo ya ha acu-mulado 1 millón de visitas. Cheez-burger se ha establecido como una marca global. De hecho, 50 % de sus 20 millones de usuarios mensuales provienen del exterior de Estados Unidos. Comenzar un sitio solamente en idioma español era claramente el próximo paso para Cheezburger.

“Estamos comprometidos a en-tretener al mundo sin distinción de fronteras ni idiomas. Eres Todo un

Loquillo es sólo el primer paso”, expresó Ben Huh, CEO y funda-dor. “El humor es algo específico de cada cultura y el idioma desem-peña un tremendo papel. Ofrecer-les a los usuarios su propio sitio en su lengua natal es importante para ayudarlos a expresar su sentido del humor”.Entre los canales de con-tenido de Eres Todo un Loquillo se encuentran los siguientes: Curi-osidades, Memes, Deportes, Ani-males, GIFs, Medios, Relaciones y Videos. Los canales fueron escogi-dos con base en categorías popu-lares en Cheezburger, así como en un riguroso análisis de datos de los tipos de contenidos preferidos por las audiencias de habla hispana.La empresa nombró a Juan

Pablo Chiquiza para ejercer de productor de contenido del nuevo sitio y sus aplicaciones. Chiquiza,

natural de Colombia, aporta una década de impresionante expe-riencia a Eres Todo un Loquillo. Antes de incorporarse a Cheez-burger, Chiquiza se desempeñó en varios actores importantes de la industria de los medios, entre el-los The Washington Post, Google y Sony.

“Me atrae mucho el actual estilo y voz editorial de Cheezburger, y es un honor producir nuestro nuevo canal con un foco 100 % en español”, afirmó Juan Pablo Chiquiza. “Estar involucrado des-de el comienzo de esta nueva ex-periencia es una rara oportunidad y me emociona dirigirla”.Desde su inicio en 2007, Cheezburger se ha convertido en un importante ac-tor en la industria de los medios digitales y el entretenimiento. La empresa ya proporciona diversión popular a millones de personas en la Internet, y ahora con el lanza-miento de Eres Todo un Loquillo, espera alcanzar a nuevos lectores de la generación de los millennials que buscan contenido divertido en español.
