Scientific Healing Affirmations
Scientific Healing AffirmationsStyle: BK11
Man's word is Spirit in man...
Paramahansa Yogananda
This groundbreaking book reveals the hidden laws for harnessing the power of concentrated thought not only for physical healing, but to overcome obstacles and create all-around success in our lives.
Long before the use of affirmations was embraced in mainstream settings as diverse as hospitals, recovery programs, sports arenas, and corporate suites, Paramahansa Yogananda understood and taught the deep spiritual principles that make this ancient scientific tool so powerfully effective.
Includes comprehensive instructions and a wide variety of affirmations for healing the body, developing confidence, awakening wisdom, curing bad habits, and much more.
Paramahansa Yogananda, Born in India on January 5, 1893, devoted his life to helping people of all races and creeds to realize and express more fully in their lives the true beauty, nobility, and divinity of the human spirit. After graduating from Calcutta University in 1915, Sri Yogananda took formal vows as a monk of India's venerable monastic Swami Order. Two years later, he began his life's work with the founding of a how-to-live school since grown to twenty-one educational institutions throughout India where traditional academic subjects were offered together with yoga training and instruction in spiritual ideals. In 1920, he was invited to serve as India's delegate to an International Congress of Religious Liberals in Boston. His address to the Congress and subsequent lectures on the East Coast were enthusiastically received, and in 1924 he embarked on a cross-continental speaking tour. Over the next three decades, Paramahansa Yogananda contributed in far-reaching ways to a greater awareness and appreciation in the West of the spiritual wisdom of the East. In Los Angeles, he established an international headquarters for Self-Realization Fellowship, the nonsectarian religious society he had founded in 1920. Through his writings, extensive lecture tours, and the creation of Self-Realization Fellowship temples and meditation centers, he introduced hundreds of thousands of truth-seekers to the ancient science and philosophy of Yoga and its universally applicable methods of meditation. In addition to publishing his writings, lectures and informal talks (including a comprehensive series of Self-Realization Fellowship Lessons for home study), the society also oversees temples, retreats, and centers around the world.

A user has an HP 1120C printer. Old machine was windows xp pro, and the driver for this printer had an extra called ZoomSmart.
She now has a windows 7 professional 64 bit machine, and the driver available for windows 7 for this same HP 1120C does not have the ZoomSmart functionality.
HP's site says to use the windows driver from windows update, which I have. Does anyone know of a way, or a driver, that can be used to restore this functionality??

Near as i can tell the HPUPD is the only vista/7 compatible driver for this printer, it's probably not going to support the ZoomSmart technology.
What exactly does this user need this feature for? Office, Adobe and the like should be able to perform the same job just fine.

Suddenly, the big bid is back. They set the pulse racing these mega-takeovers: household names, billions of pounds, huge personalities (and egos), head to head, locked in combat. Kraft going for Cadbury has to be a sign of renewed economic confidence. The US firm is part-owned by Warren Buffett, for heaven's sake. Let's rock and roll.
It is though a mystery as to why Kraft has made the announcement right now. News of the bid did not leak out so there was no discernible shift in the Cadbury share price; Kraft's 745p-a-share offer had been turned down flat. It might have been better, surely, to have waited and come back with something that the UK company's board and the market might be impressed by and could be an agreed deal, rather than this mealy-mouthed approach?
It's hard to see what Kraft thinks it's achieving — apart from uniting Cadbury's shareholders in forcing the Americans to pay a lot more and alerting Cadbury's competitors that the chocolate-maker might be in play.
The move also seems a little late. Cadbury did go through a well-documented bad patch about 18 months ago but since then, the company, under new chairman Roger Carr and CEO, Todd Stitzer, has been moving forward. It's half-way through a "Vision into Action" growth programme, aimed at pushing operating margins from 10% to the mid-teens by 2011. Stitzer, an American prone to management-speak, has not always enjoyed universal City support but he has proved to be a survivor and is not afraid to reshape the business, demerging brands and adding others. And it's not as if Kraft itself is in fine fettle — it is especially weak in the emerging markets where Cadbury is strong.
If Kraft is going to get anywhere it is going to have to raise its bid. When Mars bought Wrigley's gum (orchestrated by Buffett) it paid 19 times ebitda. That would mean it was looking at £11 a share for Cabdury. But that was in April 2008 before the collapse of Lehman, the banking crisis and global recession so that price may be unattainable. Nevertheless, Kraft will have to pay rather more than 745p.
That's all further down the road — if it happens at all. For now, we can sit back and enjoy the sound and spectacle of the gloves coming off.

Kolkata: The Kolkata police came up with a novel way to improve relations with some very special denizens of the city - the hearing and speech impaired. They decided to organise a football tournament. Some people might call it unfair competition, but the boys in red, who suffer from speech and hearing impairments, were not complaining. The opportunity to compete as equals with their more fortunate counterparts was a special occasion for them. "They don't play outside too much. And now they are playing against this school. They are so excited that they've been practising for several days," said Swapan Kundu, a teacher. This is the fourth match in the football tournament that the Kolkata police dreamed up to win the confidence of the city's youth. And no effort was spared to ensure these rather special youth did not feel out of place. "They cannot hear the whistle that is being blown, so for them we are using red flags so they know something is wrong and the game must stop," said Dipak Das, the referee. How far this football match really improves police-citizen ties remains to be seen, but what was clear was a rare triumph of the spirit. Though the Calcutta Deaf and Dumb School lost the game 3-0, they won a much bigger battle.

I just resisted two attempts at a cheesy pun with that headline (One Moore and Dunn, or something like that). Anyway, a few things for you this afternoon:
Potomac first baseman Tyler Moore was named the Carolina League Player of the Week for the second week in a row; he went 15-for-30 last week with five homers and 17 RBI. The Nationals drafted Moore three times from 2005-08, finally signing him after picking him in the 16th round in 2008.
And he's been on an absolute tear at Single-A Potomac recently, hitting .548 with seven homers and a 1.286 slugging percentage in his last 10 games. No, that's not OPS. That's just slugging percentage. It'll be interesting to see how long he's at Potomac, particularly with Chris Marrero blocking him at Harrisburg - do the Nationals move both players up a level, or keep them where they are in the last five weeks of the minor league season? Either way, Moore - a right-hander who stands 6-foot-2 - is developing into a nice power bat in the minors.
In light of Moore's success with the P-Nats, Byron Kerr talked with the first baseman recently. You can read his blog here for more from Moore.
Jayson Stark wrote early this afternoon about talks of a three-team deal between the Nationals, Diamondbacks and White Sox that would send Adam Dunn to Chicago, a handful of young pitchers to Arizona and Edwin Jackson here.
I wrote about the Nationals' interest in Jackson back in June - on the night he threw his no-hitter, incidentally - and the connection makes some sense; the Nationals could take on Jackson's $8.35 million salary next season, and he'd give them a power arm. But he's got a history of wildness, and a high-priced pitcher with control issues doesn't seem like enough of a return for Dunn, especially when the Diamondbacks are trying to shed salary.
Ken Rosenthal also refuted the three-way talks in a tweet a few seconds ago.
A few minor leaguers got promoted today - pitcher Brad Peacock and infielder Josh Johnson are going from Potomac to Double-A Harrisburg, and pitcher Adam Carr is headed from Potomac to Triple-A Syracuse.

Amavubi Head Coach,Eric Nshimiyimana
Amavubi head coach Eric Nshimiyimana is very optimistic Rwanda will stage a good outing in this year's edition of the Cecafa Challenge Cup due to be held in Nairobi, Kenya from November 27 to December 12.
"The level at which these boys has elevated is very pleasing. I am confident we will have a triumphant tournament. We are looking forward to the tournament with optimism, we are having good preparations and I believe we will give it our best shot,"
The draws for the upcoming Cecafa Senior Challenge Cup were made in Nairobi just 30 hours before Rwanda faced Uganda in an international friendly game last Saturday at Namboole stadium in Kampala.
On learning that the Amavubi would face Uganda in the group stages of the annual regional tournament that will be hosted in Kenya from November 27-December 12, the Rwanda head coach Eric Nshimiyimana said, "It will be a tough group but we are ready for the challenge and hope that we perform well as expected."
Rwanda is in Group C with the 13-time record and reigning champions Uganda, Sudan and Eritrea while Group B has the former Africa Cup of Nations winners Zambia, Burundi, Tanzania and Somalia. The hosts Kenya, Zanzibar, Ethiopia and newcomers South Sudan were placed in Group A.
Asked about his assessment of Amavubi's Group C opponents, the coach said his team was ready for any side.
"Certainly we don't take anyone for granted, but neither are we intimidated by anyone. We may be wary of an opponent or two but they too may be worried about us," he said.
On his team's chances of progressing from the group, Nshimiyimana said: "It's a difficult but open group, anyone can beat anyone."
Nshimiyimana has long experience in Cecafa games both as a player and coach. He said Rwanda's performance in Cecafa over the years is generally good.
"We may have won the title only once (in 1999) but overall our record in the tournament is not so bad, we have always progressed from the group stage and have also played in a couple of finals but without much success," he reflected.
Nshimiyimana will head to the regional tournament minus APR's striker Michel Ndahinduka due to injury but he has opted to use the duo of Jacques Tuyisenge of Police and Meddie Kagere of Rayon Sport up front.
Amavubi will also be without retired skipper Olivier Karekezi who will not don the yellow and blue jersey for Rwanda in 13 years since he made his debut in 2000 without the reason being injury worries.
That he will be absent from the line-up and bench, marks the dawn of a new era for the national football team. The 30-year old Karekezi who represented Rwanda at the 2004 Africa Cup of Nations called it quits this August and hang his boots from international duty.
His retirement could not come at a much better time as the current national side boasts some of the Junior Wasps that featured at the 2011 FIFA U-17 World Cup in Mexico and several youngsters with the average age being 22 years.
Karekezi who scored a total of 25 goals for Rwanda at all events since 2000 is currently playing for CA Bizertin in Tunisia where his contract will end in 2015. He mentioned earlier this year that he wants to go into football coaching.
Meanwhile, Niyonzima who took after him said that they are trying to adapt even though it's not easy at all. "We have played two games without him so far and we are adjusting to his absence. However, we shall miss him as a captain because we all grew up looking up to him."
Rwanda's midfield maestro Niyonzima's leadership skills will be put to test later this month at the Cecafa tournament to see whether he can attain glory, the kind that has eluded this nation.
The opening match will be between Kenya and Ethiopia on November 27. Rwanda will play their first match against Uganda on November 29, then against Sudan three days later before taking on Eritrea on December 5.
Recent attempts have seen the Amavubi come as close as winning the title in 2011 in Dar es Salaam with a penalty shootout against Uganda in the final but experience and luck seemed to grant the record champions their 12th title then.
Nshimiyimana, then working in an interim capacity, guided Rwanda to the 2009 Cecafa Challenge Cup final in Kenya which the Amavubi Stars lost to Uganda Cranes 2-0.
Last year, the Amavubi were shocked by Tanzania in the quarterfinals in a 2-1 loss but Nshimiyimana believes that the results could be different in this campaign but he is quick to admit that it will be a tough tournament.
Knee injury sidelines APR midfielder Nsabimana until mid next year
The APR FC and U-20 Wasps midfielder Eric Nsabimana, who suffered a serious knee injury in August this year, will be sidelined until at least July, next year.
Nsabimana becomes the second top Turbo King Football League player certain to miss the 2013/14 season after Rwanda international and Rayon Sports' defender Faustin Usengimana.
Nsabimana tore his knee ligaments in August while on duty with the national team during the 2013 Francophone Games, which were held in Nice, France.
"Now I feel better than one or two months before and hope to come back to my best sometime mid next year, probably by July I should be able play," he said.
That means the injury rules him out of the whole of the current season, a major setback for a player who is highly rated.
Another young star whose season was cut short with a bad injury is Rayon Sports' central defender Faustin Usengimana, who suffered a devastating double fracture in the right leg on the first day of the season.
Both players have to start on physiotherapy after which they will undergo muscle rehabilitation, strengthening, and sport-specific rehabilitation before they could be declared fit to return to full training.
Usengimana will is also certain to miss CAF Champions League and the early rounds of the Peace Cup competition.
It's the second time that Usengimana has suffered a serious injury.
In 2011, a knee injury ruled him out of the Fifa Under-17 World Cup finals in Mexico after playing just 20 minutes in the second group stage match against Uruguay.
He made a comeback after nearly eight months when he joined Isonga before returning to Rayon Sports a season later, whom he then helped them to their first league title in nine years last season.

Al-Qaradawi is nowhere near as explicit as the Saudi, but in his preoccupation with the threat posed by Russia, China and Iran, he is strengthening the narrative of conflict between a burgeoning "Persian empire" and the Arabs, and relegating that of a struggle between Muslims and Israel. He also implicitly aligns with increasing firmness the interests of the Arab world with those of the West, and even, to some extent, with Israel.

Awesome CPU for turbo/stability 02/26/2014
This review is from: Intel Core i7-4771 Haswell Quad-Core 3.5GHz (3.9GHz Turbo) LGA 1150 84W BX80646I74771 Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics 4600
Excellent CPU, for high-end systems that aren't designed for overclocking. This CPU can be overclocked, but it is designed for mild overclocking, generally controlled by "pre-sets" in your system bios. It has a very, and I mean very mild speed boost over the 4770k but won't translate to much in actual performance.
Also good for virtualization. Yeah.... I guess that's good. Get this CPU if you aren't into overclocking, if you want to tinker and push your gear, get the 4770k.
The speed increase just doesn't justify the extra 20 bucks.

Background Information
for Teachers
How to define immigrants
from Latin America?
How then do we refer to
this group of immigrants?
These definitions may over-simplify the personal experiences of immigrants from Latin America and the Caribbean to the United States. Many Latin American immigrants prefer to identify themselves in terms of their national origin rather than such pan-ethnic terms as Latino or Hispanic. According to Chabrán & Chabrán in the Latino Encyclopedia (1996) the term Hispanic ignores the great diversity of cultural backgrounds in the Spanish speaking population. Hispanic implies Spanish ancestry; its literal meaning is "pertaining to ancient Spain" but it does not account for the indigenous and/or African roots present in many Latino cultures. In contrast the term Latino encompasses many groups recognizing the cultural differences among them. Although this term has been more popular than Hispanic in areas where many diverse groups from Latin America live together, it does not totally reflect the many differences between Cuban-Americans and Mexican Americans, or between recently arrived immigrants from Brazil and El Salvador. For the purposes of this web-site, we will use the term Latino because it is the most inclusive definition. For example Brazilians would be considered Latinos and not Hispanic.
For a discussion about the theoretical and political significance of these terms see
Marta E. Gimenez, 1999, p.225.
Largest state concentrations of the Latino population in the United States.
Estimated from the Population Estimates program of the U.S. Census Bureau in 1998.
Adapted from Population Estimates Program, Population Division, U.S. Census Bureau, Washington D.C. Population estimates for States by race and Hispanic origin: July 1998.
The biggest expansion of Latino presence will naturally be in the states that draw the most immigrants: also California, Texas, New York, Florida, Illinois and New Jersey. Immigrant communities are growing rapidly in Atlanta, Minneapolis, and Washington state.
The diversification of the Latino population in the United States its also increasing:
Juan Florez (2000), a professor at Hunter College and the CUNY Graduate Center talks about the incremental growth and enormous diversification of the Latino population in the U.S. and in particular in New York City. While in the past "Latin New York" was associated mostly with Puerto Ricans, today the city includes Dominicans, Mexicans, Colombians and Ecuadorians among others.
Latin American immigrant groups to the U.S.
Adapted from U.S Bureau of the Census. 1990 Census of population and Housing
How is the "new immigration"
different from previous immigrations?
This transnationality is unlike anything we have seen in previous waves of immigration.
"With the old pattern of immigration to the United States, a break was made with the country or origin. The Irish, the Eastern Europeans, the Italians either came forever or they went back. Fully a third of the Italians coming to the United States returned home. But they didn't move back and forth, participating in two economies and two polities, the way many Latinos do today". (Suárez-Orozco & Sommer, 2000, p.4)
Changes in the ethnic composition
of the U.S. society:
"The new immigrants
(about 80 percent of them) tend to be nonwhites, non-English-speaking,
Spanish Language in the
United States
There is no one explanation for why Latinos have maintained their language where other immigrant groups have not. The result however has been a distinctly new and hybrid culture which has impacted the United States as much as it has impacted Latinos: "soon the United States will have the second largest number of Spanish-speakers in the world".
The impact of this groups preservation of their native tongue language is demonstrated by the growing Spanish and Portuguese (primarily in Massachusetts) language market and mass media. There are three national Spanish-language television networks and hundreds of Spanish language newspapers, periodicals, and radio stations.
The Impact of the New Immigration
on the United States
Al Gore and George Bush are communicating directly with the Latino community by giving campaign speeches in Spanish. Quiroz and Kang (2000) state after an intensive market research of the Latino identity; "Hispanics now have an unprecedented level of influence on the music we listen to, the sports we watch and the food we eat" [and] have established themselves as a social, cultural, political and economic force" (p 28).
The impact of Latinos in the U.S. society is at all levels (cited in Suárez-Orozco 1999): "Latin American immigration is palpably changing the public space (see Ainslie, 1998;Gutiérrez, 1998), and social institutions-including schools (Trueba, 1996; Orfield, 1995),places of work (Waldinger, 1997), businesses (Cornelius, 1998) and places of worship (Eck, 1996)".
Major changes in immigration policy affecting Latin Americans during the second half of the twentieth century: (Immigration policy for Latin Americans differs from the one applied to European immigrants at the beginning of last century)
1965: Immigration and Nationality Act disregards the national origins quota system in favor of 170,000 persons from the Old World and 120,000 persons from the Western Hemisphere.
1966: Status of Cuban refugees adjusted to permanent resident alien
1968: Congress restricted visas for residents of the Western Hemisphere to 120,000 per year. Immigration and Naturalization Service introduced border crossing cards for Mexican citizens.
1976: A preference system was instituted reflecting the categories among which a specified number of immigrant visas are distributed each year and annual 20,000 limit per country, resulting in an increase in the number of undocumented immigrants.
1980: Refugee Act of 1980 adjusted status of refugees to permanent resident after one year and established procedures for emergency refugee situations. Immigration Reform and Control Act - adjusted status of Cubans entering Mariel Harbor between 4/15/80 and 10/20/80, as well as Haitians entering without permission prior to 1/1/81, to permanent resident status.
1986: Immigration Reform Act of 1986-Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA) 3 million immigrants legalized their status. 75% of the immigrants naturalized were Mexican immigrants
1990: Immigration Act of 1990 (IMMCAT)- creation of a separate preference system to increase employment-based visa.
The border between the United States and Mexico is among the longest and most heavily guarded international borders in the world (Suárez-Orozco, 1999). Indeed, it has been the focus of so much discussion, and controversy, that it is hard to imagine that the physical border, dotted by the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) checkpoints and walls, was only created as we know it in the mid-twentieth century.
Many Mexican-Americans can trace their ancestry not only to Spanish colonists who arrived in the United States Southwest in 1600s and 1700s , but also to the Mestizos who have Native American and Spanish blood and who settled in the lands from Florida to California. This group did not immigrate, but were granted American citizenship when Mexico was forced to cede the territory they lived on on after the Mexican-American war in 1848. Those territories were those that form the present states of New Mexico, Colorado, Arizona and California.
| "Mexicans in the
United States are at once immigrants and nonimmigrants: The original Mexican-origin
population in the United States did not move to the United States; rather
United States moved to them when Mexico lost an enormous portion of its northern territories to the United States" .(Suárez-Orozco, 1998, p.415)
From 1880-1900, the Southwest experienced an economic boom following the establishment of the railroads in Mexico and the Southwest. 127,000 Mexicans were recruited to work with United States railroad companies (Kanellos, 1998).
In the early 20th century (1910-1919), employers in the Southwest and Midwest of the United States continued recruiting and transporting Mexican workers for a number of reasons: "Increased labor demand spurred by Chinese worker inclusion in 1882, Japanese worker exclusion in 1907, and a shortage of European immigrants during World War I encouraged Mexican immigration" .
In this period, Texas and California became a year round agricultural industry, requiring intense labor inputs. Mexican workers performed low skilled and low-paying tasks: building and maintaining railroads, working in Chicago stockyards, open hearth steel mills, and in agriculture.
It is important to note that while U.S. companies were hoping to pull immigrants into the U.S., the Mexican Revolution (1910-1920) was pushing Mexicans out by generating wide-scale violence, high levels of unemployment and low wages. Political and religious refugees from the entrepreneurial and educated classes became pillars of many Mexican -American communities in the United States .
The Great Depression decimated the job market in the United States in the late 20s, and as a result Mexican-Americans faced more competition for their low-paying jobs as well as widespread hostility:
President Herbert Hoover even blamed the Depression on the presence of Mexican Americans, providing another example of scapegoating of immigrants during difficult economic times. As a consequence, the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) routinely rounded up Mexicans and repatriated them to Mexico, forcing them to take their American-born children, who were U.S. citizens, with them. Close to 500,000 Mexicans were repatriated during the Depression. (Chávez, 1998, p. 619).
This was the largest mass deportation of a group in U.S. history.
Many have argued that this perception of the Mexican-American community marginalized the group, keeping educational levels low and allowing for little economic mobility. The Bracero Program was established between 1942-1964, when the United States and Mexico made a number of labor agreements to bring Mexican workers to work on farms and railroads. This program became popularly known as the "Bracero Program", bracero meaning "arms" in Spanish" [and it] has advantages as a ready source of cheap labor, especially in agriculture. (Chávez, L. 1998). The Program was initiated as a result of a labor shortage in the United States due to World War II. The United States granted temporary working visas to approximately half a million Mexican agricultural workers annually in this period. It cemented an already recurring theme of recruitment and deportation. However, created a perception of Mexican immigrants as temporary workers. . During its peak in 1956, the program recruited 445, 197 workers (Reimers, 1992 as cited in Suárez-Orozco, 1999). In 1964 when the Congress refused to expand the program many Mexicans stayed, along with their family members: Since that time, both legal and undocumented migration from Mexico has grown steadily (Baker, Latapi, & Weintraub, 1998, p.87).
Nevertheless the community has grown exponentially, becoming the largest immigrant group in the United States. Over 10 million Mexican citizens have immigrated to the United States since the 1970s. Under the 1986 Immigration Law, 75 percent of the immigrants naturalized were Mexican immigrants. "In 1990, there were more legal immigrants from Mexico than from all of Europe combined" (Suárez-Orozco, 1999, p.232). In 1997, there were seven million of Mexican immigrants residing in the United States. This does not include American citizens of Mexican ancestry.
"Mexicans in the United States shifted from agricultural and seasonal jobs to urban jobs with less demand variation. This shift had precedent. During World War II, Mexicans had performed many urban manufacturing jobs. The transition took place again in the 1970s and 1980s, prompted by the increasing availability of Mexican workers (an outcome of the Mexican crisis and adjustment) and by the rise in world competition"(Baker, Latapi, & Weintraub, 1998, p.90) .
In addition, the community of Mexican-Americans, or Chicanos, and Mexican immigrants, has acquired significant political presence- particularly in the Southwest and California. "Chicanos is a name for Mexican immigrants to the United States; it comes from the word Mechicano, a Native American name for Mexico" (Ryan & Kanellos, 1995, p.60). Mexicans, as well as other Latin American immigrant groups "bring with them the Spanish language, values, and behavior that reinvigorate Mexican-culture in communities in the Southwest and throughout the United States" (Chávez, 1998, p. 623).
Latinos and Massachusetts
Information was taken from articles produced by the Mauricio Gastón Institute for Latino Community Development and Public Policy. This institute was established at the University of Massachusetts Boston through the initiative of Latino community activists and academicians in response to a need for improved understanding of Latino experiences and living conditions in Massachusetts. The task of the institute is to inform policy makers about issues vital to the Commonwealths growing Latino community and to provide this community with information and analysis necessary for effective participation in public policy development. For further information or other articles on Latino issues, visit their website at www.gaston.umb.edu.Latino Population in Massachusetts
Over the past ten years, the Latino population has shown tremendous growth in the state of Massachusetts, estimated at 20% from 1990 to 1995 alone. By the year 2000, if the rate of growth continues, about 400,000 Latinos will live in the state. According to estimates for the year 2010, Massachusetts Latino population will exceed 500,000 and account for 8.4% of the states total population.
Diversity among Latinos in terms of national background has increased as well. Historically in Massachusetts, the Latino population was primarily Puerto Rican, accounting for over 75% in the 1970s. In 1990, Puerto Ricans comprised only 53% of Latinos in the state, with the remaining population consisting of Dominicans, Central Americans, South Americans, Mexicans, and Cubans.

Challenges in Education
State policy currently dictates that beginning in 2003, all 10th grade students must pass every section of the MCAS to advance in their high school education. Had this policy been in effect in 1998, over 80% of 10th grade Latino students would have been unable to receive their diploma in the year 2000. Even in the current educational system, in which this policy has not yet been effected, Latino individuals between the ages of 16 and 24 have a higher percentage of non-enrollment (21.9%) and lower percentage with a high school diploma (44.8%) than those individuals of other races.
Occupation and Potential
Consequences of Educational Policy
The new policy on MCAS passage as a graduation prerequisite promises harmful ramifications for the future of Latino students. If the percentage of Latinos who complete high school decreases as a result of the policy, as it most likely will, it will have an incredible impact on the Latino workforce. Without a high school diploma, there can be little hope of bridging the existing gap. The already meager percentages of Latinos in professional positions will drop, and unemployment figures will rise.
Suggested recommendations
for Educators
Of the utmost importance in encouraging Latino students toward academic excellence is the creation of a multicultural curriculum that recognizes the Latino presence in the public school system. In a school system with a significant percentage of Latinos, there is currently a lack of classes, which acknowledge the Latino impact on America and the world, such as Latin American history, Spanish language literature, and bilingual education.

Carboxytherapy vs fractional laser for psoriasis?
Doctor Answers 2
Laser it is better,
hi,laser is better in this case.
but vou need to visit a Dermatology first
Best regards!
Jauru de Freitas,MD
Carboxytherapy vs fractional laser for psoriasis?
Thanks for your query. I would suggest neither. Inverse psoriasis generally affects skin folds and creases like groins and arm pits etc, so Carboxytherapy and co2 fractional laser are not a very good option for that. For mild inverse psoriasis topical and oral medications work well. If you are considering some procedure options then NBUVB will work for you as it clears off the psoriasis. Hope it helps.

Weekly roundup: A week of three losses
IFK started last week with a CHL game against Linköping on Tuesday. The first game finished 1-1 and the winner would advance to the quarterfinals. IFK had many high quality scoring chances in the game; however, the finishing wasn't at the best level and goalie Marcus Högberg made 36 saves for Linköping, who won the second game 1-0. Kevin Lankinen was solid for IFK in net with 27 saves.
The first Liiga game after the CHL playoffs was against Ässät at home on Friday. IFK played solid hockey in the first period and led the game 2-1 with two goals from Lennart Petrell, the first one being a good shot and the second a deflection on Daniel Grillfors' shot. In the second period Valtteri Viljanen tied the game and Tommi Paakkolanvaara gave Ässät a 3-2 lead in the third period. Ässät eventually took three points with a 4-2 win.
The third game of the week was played on the following day against KalPa in Kuopio. KalPa defeated IFK 3-1, scoring three power play goals in the second period. Thomas Nykopp scored IFK's only goal late in the third period with assists from Roope Hintz and Mikael Johansson. IFK did create some more scoring chances but couldn't score more goals.
IFK is currently 10th in the league with 26 points through 18 games. Check out the league standings.
IFK will play two home games this week, on Tuesday against Ilves and on Friday against TPS.

Here's a powerful three minutes showing where the denial of "the nature of things" has got us.
This further illustrates the deep infiltration of the philosophical position of 'swing vote' Justice Kennedy, which we recently blogged about: "the constitution … allows...the right to define one's own concept of existence".
This malaise in "young personalities" was predicted by Edward Holloway in a talk given in 1973 , republished in last January's FAITH magazine:
The heart of the crisis is a crisis of the intellect … The modern scientific civilisation … must be crowned by the head of God Incarnate, or [else it will be crowned by] the head of Man, who is his own god.
… we are called "to forge a new synthesis of Catholicism, of Catholic philosophy, … and the proven wisdom of the modern age. … [we would propose] a unifying philosophy of growth and development embracing all created being in the one economy of this universe … such an outlook or ethos is all-pervasive of modern life, and it underpins the conscious and the subconscious personality of the young. We can show that this process of creation manifests the existence of God Transcendent …
The fact that we have failed to show this to the young would seem to be suggested by the above video.

Snakes, insects and birds such as geese, use their hiss sound to drive off predators, and our domesticated pets have an instinctive sensitivity to this sound. The Pet Corrector emits a hiss of compressed gas which mimics this sound to interrupt undesirable behaviours such as jumping up, stealing, chasing and barking. The inert gas is safe, has no smell and works on most animals including dogs, cats and horses. There is a detailed training guide included, with helpful training tips and key dos and don'ts.
The Pet Corrector Holster holds one 50ml can and can be attached to a pocket or belt to always give you quick access to the spray.

The Germany international admits he "can't even kick a ball" at present after sustaining an ankle problem in the Bundesliga clash with Freiburg
The 29-year-old suffered an ankle injury in Bayern Munich's 1-1 draw with Freiburg, forcing him to miss his side's European Super Cup win over Chelsea before pulling out of Joachim Low's panel earlier this week.
The midfielder admits he is not certain how long he will have to spend on the treatment table but concedes the injury is worse than first feared.
"Unfortunately, I'm not as good as I thought," he was quoted as saying by Tuttomercattoweb. "I'll go ahead with some peace and quiet to recover at my best, but right now I can't even kick a ball.
"I hope next week I'll be better and I can return to training on the pitch."
Germany takes on Austria on Friday before traveling to the Faroe Islands next week in the latest rounds of World Cup qualifiers.

Chapter 29.
Lukasz POV
The ride on the bus goes surprisingly fast, considering no one is talking or doing much of anything. Mats stares at the window the whole time while I fumble in my seat, trying to stretch my legs.
When the bus hits a bump on the road, I groan, struggling again to find some comfort in my sitting position.
Mats turns in my direction, glancing at me with tired eyes. "You okay?" he asks.
"Yeah…" I am.
I am but I'm not. I'm sore, and I hurt, and I can't think of a day I've been more tired than right now.
"How about you?"
"I've been better." He shrugs. "We gave everything, Piszczu, didn't we? Every last single bit."
The image of Robben's goal plays in my head. A thousand 'what-if's swimming in my mind. "We did," I say, refusing to give it any more thought.
"We came close." His eyes are glistening, and I wonder if he's putting up a strong front. He didn't break down like some of us did.
God, like I did… I let everything out. I couldn't hold back. Not with the world of pain — hard work, sacrifice, tiredness — crushing me down to my bones.
"So close…" I say as the bus comes to a stop.
Mats gets up quickly, clearing his throat. "We'll come back stronger."
He pats a hand on my shoulder as he moves pass me, squeezing between my legs and the seat in front of us, seemingly in a rush all of the sudden.
I know him. He just needs some space to deal with this. He won't break down in front of anyone.
I don't manage the strength to move from my seat until I see the head of brown hair coming out of the van parked next to our bus. She peeks in the direction of the bus but, through the heavily tinted glass, I know she can't see me. As she makes her way into the lobby, I am suddenly desperate to get out of this bus as well.
When she sees me approaching, her face crumples, and a frightening look of worry flashes through her eyes.
Is she okay? Is she hurt? Did something happen?
I am overwhelmed by the need to hold her in my arms and make sure she's alright.
"What's wrong?" I ask, as soon as I'm close enough to her. I'm a bit out of breath, in my haste to get to her.
She seems confused as she stares into my eyes. My fingers itch to touch her, but we are surrounded by so many people in the lobby. Braun was right — I need some time off, to be with her, before the surgery.
"Are you okay?" I ask again, since she doesn't answer.
"Me?" She sighs. "How bad is it?"
"What?" Now I'm the one sounding confused.
"Your hip… you were limping… I…"
"Oh…" I stop for a second to think. Was I really limping? With the weight of the season off my shoulder, I guess I forgot to try not to. I don't need to pretend anymore, not for Klopp, nor for my teammates. "No, no… I'm fine." I step closer to her. "I'm okay." On its own, my hand reaches for her cheek. The back of my fingers rub softly over her skin.
I've tried so hard not to limp in other occasions; she must think I am in horrible pain.
"It's a little easier this way," I explain. "I don't have to pretend not to limp anymore."
She still eyes me suspiciously, unconvinced.
"The shot worked, I promise. It's not too bad," I insist. "Come on…" I gesture toward the elevators as my hand makes it to her lower back. I give her a little smile, and she sighs in relief.
I avoid limping as we make our way to the elevators, for her sake, mostly. I don't want her worrying about me. Whatever Braun gave me was good, but not enough to numb everything. My whole body is sore, and my hip and back ache, but it is definitely manageable.
I don't get to take two whole, straight steps though, when Cecilia turns to glare at me.
"No," she whispers gravely. "Not for me."
"Geez, woman…" I laugh through my nose. "Okay." Then I limp the rest of the way.
Once in the hotel room, I close the door behind me, leaning slightly against it. Cecilia sets her purse on the coffee table. Next to it, her suitcase.
I instinctively smile. "Your stuff is here."
She turns to me, matching my grin, and walks closer. "I was told to leave my bag here. I thought maybe you had something to do with that."
Her hands meet me at my waist, and she runs them up to my chest.
I barely manage a nod. I've waited so long for this — for her — for her to be here with me.
When her hands reach my shoulders, a shiver runs through my body. Her fingers make pressure over my muscles and behind my neck. My eyes give into the weight of my eyelids and they flutter closed.
"It's over," she says. "You can relax now."
My body feels so heavy against the door, I have to effortly push myself up to keep from sliding down to the floor.
I force myself to open my eyes. "Actually, this is just the beginning…" I say with a smile, bringing her lips closer to mine.
Her hands cup my face as she pulls away from the kiss. "You look so tired," she says, her eyes searching mine, her voice filled with worry. "Would you be opposed to a nap before dinner?"
Even though a nap sounds tempting, and I can't even begin to comprehend how my body is actually holding its weight up at the moment, sleeping is the last thing I want right now. My mind is going a thousand miles per second. Even if I allowed myself to lie down, I don't think I could sleep.
I shake my head at her, trying to open my eyes wider. "I'm not really sleepy."
"Of course not…" she says teasingly. "How about a bath?"
"With you?" The thought makes me almost stand up straight.
She grabs my hand then, pulling me from the door, and I suppress a groan as I force my legs to move.
She takes the lead towards the bathroom as I follow quietly. Once there, she lets go of my hand to start the water, and I stand there awkwardly, not really sure of what's going to happen.
A bath does really sound pretty nice right about now.
She stands in front of me, a small grin on her face as she looks up to me. Her fingers toy shyly with the hem of my shirt before she pulls it up to my shoulders and I help her get rid of it all together.
Her fingers trail from my shoulders down my arms before running back up tracing a little pattern over my chest and down my abs. My hands reach for her face, fingers trailing in her hair as I push it back behind her shoulders.
"You're trembling," she whispers, her hands on my shoulders and her face crumpled with worry.
I shake my head at her as a traitor shudder runs down my spine. I'm not sure exactly why I am shaking... I don't feel particularly cold.
She raises a disapproving eyebrow at me as my body contradicts my words.
"I'll be alright," is all I can say.
Her soft hands feel so good against my skin, I feel like I could just melt under them. My battered body is reacting to everything I've put it through this season. With her hands on me, and the promise of upcoming rest, I crave nothing more right now than to let her take care of me.
As soon as I realize this, my body shuts down. Whatever energy I was using to function properly leaves me, and I feel like I could just collapse.
My arms hang limp on my sides. I tell them to get to work — she is wearing too many clothes — but they don't seem to respond.
When her fingers reach my waistband, another shiver runs through me. She looks up at me as she pushes my pants down which leaves me in my boxer briefs.
"C'mon…" She pulls at my hand and helps me step out of my pants.
I look down at my underwear and then back at her.
"Yeah…" She smiles. "I don't want to get distracted."
I want to wrap her in my arms, kiss her, undress her… but my body is no longer responding to my brain. It's all hers now — whatever she wants to do with me.
She guides my unsteady steps to the edge of the bathtub where the water is already half way filling the tub. She tests the water with one hand before turning up to see me.
"In you go," she orders.
The steamy water sloshes as I not so gracefully let myself in. I bite back as hiss as the heat of the water pricks my skin.
It feels so good.
I realize my eyes are closed, and when I open them she's no longer there. "Cecilia?" I sit up brusquely, wincing at the pain that shoots from my hip.
"Shhh…" she says behind me, her hands on my shoulders. "Just relax." I don't realize she's actually in the bathtub with me until her knees appear under my arms, and she pulls me back to rest against her chest.
"God…" I close my eyes again, resting my head against her shoulder, feeling my body slowly start to unwind.
Everything else happens in a blur. Her hands are everywhere — in my hair, on my chest, down my arms, on my shoulders, behind my neck. She unhinges every part of me and puts me back together as a new man.
I don't really know how long we're in there. Something in the back of my mind keeps reminding me that I might be crushing her, but every time I try to sit up and get some weight off of her, she pulls me back down.
I am only slightly aware of her lips at my ear until she whispers the next few words.
"I love you." Her nose grazes the back of my ear. "I am so proud of you."
A kiss on my neck jolts life back into my body, and I turn as much as I can manage, sitting up straight, searching for her. I grab on to the edges of the tub as my hip complains, but I have no ears for that right now.
Her eyes are a shiny shade of green, and I get lost in them for a second, before I remember her words one more time.
"Say that again," I whisper.
"I'm proud of you?"
I shake my head, feeling the air leave me through my nose. She knows what I want. She will say it again. I smile in anticipation.
"I love you," she says, as her hands cup my face. "I love you so much."
I close my eyes and let her words sink in for a second as my head drops and my forehead meets hers.
After so many years — hopelessly dreaming that she would one day feel this way — the overjoy her words bring compares to nothing I've ever felt before.
"I love you too," I manage to say. "I've loved you for so long."
I am unable to keep my lips off of her any longer. My hands resume their purpose, reaching from her knees, down to her thighs. When our lips connect I draw in a breath through my nose in desperation. I need more of her — I need all of her.
My hands now work on their own, roaming her body. I squirm and I turn and I try as best I can to find a comfortable position, but there just isn't enough room in this bathtub for us. My lips seal a little yelp that comes from her mouth as my arm surrounds her torso and I lift us from the water.
I stumble out of the tub on numb legs and with her wrapped around me.
"You're supposed to be resting," she says as I quickly grab a towel, wrapping it mostly around her body as it clings to mine.
"We'll have time for that later," I reply, heading back into the bedroom. We only have a couple hours before dinner — I do not plan to waste any time resting now.
I sit on the edge of the bed, fumbling with my tie, trying to loosen the knot a bit. As uncomfortable as sitting down is, I'm just too tired to stand anymore. When Cecilia walks out of the bathroom, shining in her dress, I try to strengthen my position as much as I'm able to.
Her heels click-click their way to me, and when her eyes land at the stupid thing folded over my thigh, her face scrunches with worry. As soon as she's within reach, I pull her to me, our fingers intertwine, and my legs cage her.
"You look beautiful." I try subtly to hide the thing behind me with my other hand. But she notices it. Of course she notices it.
"Are you really okay about this?" she asks, breaking the kiss.
"I am," I say at once, looking up at her, retrieving the medal from behind me.
I take a deep breath before I get up. "I thought — four years ago — I had lost the one last chance I had to be with you, to have you be mine. And now look at this." I lift our hands, still intertwined, between us. "Look at us…"
She smiles sweetly, her eyes water.
"Now, who's to say I won't get another chance at this too?" My fingers grip tightly around the medal. "At another final? At least I will try my damn hardest for a second chance at it too."
Letting go of her hand, I walk to my bag where I deposit the medal, and then back to Cecilia, extending my hand to her.
"Are you ready?"
"Absolutely." She smiles widely, eyes beaming, and grabs my hand. I know her answer doesn't merely mean she's ready to go for dinner. She's ready for everything else as well.
And so am I. I'm ready to get this night over with. Ready to restart tomorrow, or as soon as physically able. And most importantly, ready to have Cecilia by my side the whole time.
A/N: Well, there you have it. Thanks for reading and hoped you enjoyed this journey. RM
