doral tribune november 2012

BY RICHARD YAGER

The City of Doral’s new Mayor andtwo of three City Council seatswill be determined in Nov. 27runoff elections after the Nov. 6

municipal voting. Securing 50% or more of the total

votes cast was in doubt in each three con-tests until final counts became available,three days after polls closed.

Results were delayed until Friday,Nov. 9 to complete counting of absenteeballots at Miami-Dade County electionheadquarters.

In the Mayor’s race, formerCouncilman Luigi Boria got 4,626 votes or41% of the Nov. 6 balloting, requiring arunoff against Frank Bolanos who narrow-ly bested Councilman Pete Cabrera for sec-ond place by just 73 votes.

Question of a possible recount wasraised due to the narrow margin betweenBolanos (3,330 votes or 29.70%) andCabrera (3,257 or 29.03%).

“The law states there is a recount if themargin is .5% or less,” commentedChristina White, MDC Deputy Supervisorof Elections. “This race is outside thatmargin, so there is no recount… FrankBolanos and Luigi Boria will continue onto the run-off.”

The only outright winner in four Doralcontests was Bettina Rodriguez Aguileraby just 107 votes over Clemente Vera,4,786 to 4,679.

For Council Seat 1, Sandra Ruiz witha 48% margin will be challenged in the

Nov. 27 runoff by Elena Ortega Tauler whopolled 38% of the total votes cast. CarlosRuiz ran third with 12% of the total vote. In the Council Seat 3 race, formerCouncilman Robert Von Name ran second

with 32%, sufficient to require a runoffwith Christi Fraga who led a three-candi-date field with 45%. Bibiana Salmonplaced third with 22% of the votes cast.

The Boria-Bolanos contest will choosea successor to Juan Carlos Bermudez whowas elected in 2003 as Doral’s first Mayor.Bermudez had thrown his support to Bolanosto succeed him in the Nov. 6 election.

The Mayor had also backed ElenaTauler for the Council 1 Seat in a farewellstatement published in the Oct. DoralTribune.

Runoff balloting hours at Doral’s eightprecincts will be from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. onTuesday, Nov. 27.

Robotic RemovalCatches On

NOVEMBER 2012

By DR. RODOLFO MARTINEZRobotic Surgeon

Robotic removal ofthe gallbladdertoday offers more

precision and is lessinvasive than traditionalsurgical procedure.

As one of the mostcommon operations,gallbladder surgery can now be performedwithout leaving visible scars, an advanceslowly catching on, thanks to surgicalrobots.

The cholecystectomy is performedrobotically by means of a single 2-1/2centimeter incision in the belly button.Once healed, the incision is virtuallyinvisible.

The laparoscopic technique is per-formed by making four small incisions,one in the navel itself and the other threein the abdomen.

In traditional open surgery, a singleseven to ten centimeter incision is madeon the right side of the abdomen, belowthe ribs.

While the greatest advantage is cos-metic, there are other important benefits.The company that produces the surgicalrobot assures that robotic surgery (knownas Single-Site da Vinci Surgery) offersminimal scarring, minimal pain, lowblood loss, fast recovery, short hospitalstay, and high patient satisfaction.

Some procedures for gallbladderremoval that begin robotically or as alaparoscopy have to be performed as opensurgery due to extreme inflammation, orthe presence of multiple adhesions orscars.

Although the surgeon is very skilled,

How many times have you seen a childbeing dragged along by the mother orfather, hysterically screaming they ‘don’twant to go’?

How many have you as a parent giventhose words a second thought? Or, if thatwas my child, I would….

Most people have become insensitiveto children crying and refusing to go some-where at some time. Yet, this scenariocould very possibly be an abductionattempt. So how could a child survive akidnapping, lacking a natural instinct toescape a stranger?

In our Kung Fu Child Developmentprogram, we teach students five years andolder that if ever encountered by a stranger,yell out: ‘This is not my mom or dad!’This is a stranger,’ as loud as they can.

A child not educated in ‘StrangerDanger’ will go wherever they believethere is an appealing attraction: — apuppy, a toy or candy. Predators under-stand that instinctual motivation and actupon it to abduct an innocent child.

I can still remember as an elementaryschool student drills to prepare for a

nuclear attack by hiding beneath a deskand covering heads. Younger readers haveno idea of what I’m talking about but I’msure most adults can relate to a similarpractice, the fire drill.

In our Kung Fu Kids class, StrangerDanger drills are as common as kickingand punching. Instructors constantly con-front students with phrases such as

‘What’s a stranger?’ Students chant back: ‘A person that

you do not know sir!’‘Do you talk to strangers? Answer: ‘No, sir!’ Through such role playing and lec-

tures, we teach students to recognizestrangers and how to avoid them. As a for-mer Law Enforcement Officer and certi-fied National Security Alliance Child SafeNetwork instructor, as well as a MartialArts educator, I’m amazed to see howmany children remain prime abcution can-didates.

The most important thing to teach yourchild is to say ‘no’ to an adult. Trustingchildren to their own instincts is dangerous.

So this year, especially before the hol-idays, empower ‘your own’ by teachingthem to say ‘no’ and practice your ownStranger Danger drills.
