After Inocencio got his green card in the amnesty plan passed by the Reagan-era government, Inocencio traveled freely back and forth to Guerrero. Soon, only his parents would remain the village. Everyone else in the family had opted to Go North. In 1994, Inocencio moved back to Phoenix, where most of his siblings now lived.
He began to think about settling down. The Budweiser and the bailes no longer interested him. The young women in the bars bored him.
He was changing physically, he could see it. Growing a little fat. When he combed his thick black hair in front of the mirror, hed spy one or two threads of grey. Smile lines were beginning to etch into the tawny skin on his face.
In 1999, on one of his trips south to see his parents, he ran into Araceli, the smart girl who used to bring corn to the mill.
She was the same age as Inocencio, and she intrigued him.
She was so different from the girls at the Phoenix bailes.
She didnt wear a lot of makeup some days she didnt wear any makeup at all. She had a no-nonsense, almost brusque way of talking. She wasnt much for chitchat. And sometimes, when Inocencio cracked a joke, she didnt laugh.
Araceli had gone to school for twelve years, and had trained as a social worker. After she graduated, shed gotten an excellent job offer to be a social worker in a larger town, but her mother wouldnt let her accept it. Araceli was bitterly disappointed, but she obeyed her mother. As a reward for her obedience, Aracelis family set her up with a corner store in the village. The years passed, other girls married. Araceli remained single.
When Inocencio proposed, she thought: Why should I be single the rest of my life?
One night in April, 2000, a few days after shed married her husband in Guerrero, Araceli prepared to cross into Arizona through the desert in sandals.
Araceli had bunions; close-toed shoes never fit. She could do this thing in sandals, she told herself. And she did, for a few hours, until the Border Patrol picked her up, along with the rest of her group.
Inocencio had been monitoring Aracelis progress, and met her when she stepped off the Border Patrol bus at the Mexican border. He took her to Nogales, where a deal was struck with a different coyote. This time Araceli would attempt to cross using the borrowed visa of a Mexican citizen. Inocencio agreed to pay the smuggler $2,000 if his bride crossed successfully.
There were probably a lot of reasons that Araceli didnt raise the suspicion of the American officials who checked her visa. She was a small woman with shoulder length brown hair and light skin. She must have resembled the woman whose picture was attached to the visa she borrowed. For sure, she didnt look like Inocencio or other dark-skinned indigenous-looking immigrants entering the United States from southern Mexico. Her Spanish showed she had schooling, and many immigrants who were pouring into Arizona at the time didnt have a lot of schooling. Whats more, all those years of being a shopkeeper had taught her to keep a neutral expression on her face because you cant judge the customer for what he buys. She had nerves of steel. She had confronted thieves whod tried to steal from her store in the village, why should she back down when border officials tried to trip her up on her story?
She crossed the border, and soon she and Inocencio were in Phoenix.
Araceli hated Phoenix.
The city was hot, noisy, crime-ridden, spread out, impersonal, lonely. Inocencios siblings lived close to him, but Aracelis three sisters and five brothers were back in Guerrero.
There was no one she could confide in. She missed her little store and the rivers and mountains and the tall cacti grabbing at the sky with their thick green arms. She couldnt speak English, so the Anglos were a mystery to her.
One day soon after shed arrived, Araceli looked Inocencio in the eye and said: Im going back home.
But she didnt go back because as arrangements were being worked out for the return journey she found out she was pregnant. In the span of three years, she had two children, a daughter well call Mitzi and a son well call Jack. And of course, once her American citizen kids were born, she knew shed probably never live again in Mexico.
Araceli and Inocencio now lived in a mixed-status family.
She was an unauthorized immigrant; he was a legal permanent resident; the kids were citizens. In Phoenix and across the nation, such mixed-status families were becoming common. Increased border enforcement made border crossings more dangerous and smuggling fees more expensive. It was just too costly and dangerous for migrants to visit their families in Mexico, as they had done for decades. Instead, wives joined their husbands in the United States and had American kids. In 2009, the Pew Hispanic Center reported that about 73 percent of the children of undocumented immigrants were American citizens.

The feeling of control as you throw pitches and hit balls was one of the developers key focuses while developing MLB 2K10. You now have greater control over the ball's direction as it comes off the bat, or more precise pitching on breaking balls, etc.My Player ModeThe feature that started in NBA 2K10 has made it's way over to 2K's MLB series. The basic goal of this mode is similar to those found in games like Madden for a few years now. The player starts with an up and coming baseball player and has to basically role play his career and turn that player into a Hall of Famer. You increase your player's attributes through both practice drills throughout the season as well as achieving goals given to you during games . The player controls only his/her single player throughout games and the rest of the players are CPU controlled.MLB TodayThis is another extension on an NBA 2K10 feature. The idea of this is to bring game commentary to life by detecting all kinds of stats from previous real life MLB games and incorporating them into the in-game commentary. For example, an announcer may bring up how the team you are playing as have won the previous two games in a series and what it could mean record-wise if they were to sweep the series. If you are playing a quick game, the stats will be pulled from real life games. However if you are playing a custom franchise mode, it will pull stats from fictional games within your franchise mode.$1,000,000 Challenge and Fathead OfferWinner of the million dollar challenge.The MLB 2K10 creators issued a challenge to be the first to pitch a perfect game. The first player to purchase MLB 2K10 and record a prefect game won $1,000,000.The winner of the million dollar challenge was Wade McGilberry from Alabama, who completed the challenge on the first day after only 7 tries. McGilberry used Atlanta Braves pitcher Kenshin Kawakami for his no hitter attempt.If you buy either the 360, PS3, or Wii versions of the game there will be a Fathead token inside to redeem at www.fathead.com/mlb2k10.

KINGSTON, R.I. -- May 1, 2001 -- "No one is a lost cause," says University of Rhode Island student William Carter Johnson who mentors four students at South Kingstown High School. "Everyone has potential. I just try to help them recognize that potential."
"Children are smart, observant individuals who will let you know if something you say is wrong or inappropriate," says another URI student, Tina Kalinowski of Robbinsville, N. J. who mentors a first grade class at the Peace Dale Elementary School.
Johnson and Kalinowski are two of 75 URI students who participated in an innovative Mentor/Tutor Internship this semester designed for URI students interested in making a difference in younger students lives, especially those on the verge of dropping out or feeling disengaged from the school community. The students earn three credits in field experience.
The program was initiated three years ago by URI political science professor Al Killilea and the South County Coalition Against Racism to see if eight URI students of color could break down racial stereotypes while helping local teenage students who, feeling isolated, had the potential for truancy.
The program and the focus has evolved and expanded. URI mentors are now actively involved at high schools, junior high schools, middle schools, and elementary schools. Schools participating in the project are Forest Park Elementary, Stony Lane Elementary, Davisville Elementary (pilot program), Davisville Middle, and Wickford Middle Schools in North Kingstown; South Kingstown High, South Kingstown Jr. High School and Matunuck Elementary, Wakefield Elementary and Peace Dale Elementary schools in South Kingstown. Narragansett High School in Narragansett and Archie Cole Jr. High School in East Greenwich.
"We found there were so many needy students that we opened the internship to all URI students," explains Killilea who is assisted by Cherie Aiello, a parent volunteer who now receives a stipend. Aiello schedules the mentors with the schools. "She has wonderful organizational skills," says the URI professor of the woman who organizes closets and offices as a business sideline.
While URI students primarily mentor on a one-on-one basis with high school, junior high and middle school students, they perform "indirect " mentoring in elementary schools. Depending on the teacher and the needs of the classroom, a mentor can either help ensure that a student with social or emotional issues feels included, help with classroom work, or show students how to play respectfully on the playground.
URI students spend at least 4 hours a week at the schools and an hour per week in training sessions at URI.
"It can be rewarding. The challenge is to connect on some level and form trust and to address individual needs," says Johnson who meets with each of his four mentees one-on-one for an hour each week.
"Its their time," says the 23-year-old URI student who holds two jobs. "Sometimes we just talk, sometimes its a time to blow off steam, and sometimes its spent helping with school work. One time it meant going to a hockey game and cheering a mentee on."
Johnson says it can also be frustrating. Once he arrived at school to discover that one student had been suspended. "Not everyone makes the same decisions. Teenagers rarely look at the whole picture. I dont tell them what to do, I just suggest options. I try to be a role model and a male presence in their lives," the URI student says.
Kalinowski is one of 20 URI mentors at Peace Dale Elementary School. She ensures that two students in Donna Santaniellos first grade class are included and she often reads stories to the class.
"Tina is fabulous. Shes part of our environment," says Santaniello. "Shes wonderful with the children. Theyre happy to see her. In fact, they long to see her."
The internship program gets some support from The John Hazen White Sr. Center for Ethics and Public Service at URI. "This is a great example of how the late Cranston industrialists money is well spent," says Killilea.

BUY KETAZOLAM NO PRESCRIPTION, In a speech Tuesday night, Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein reportedly apologized for his company's role in the financial markets crisis, saying, "We participated in things that were clearly wrong and have reason to regret."
Apologies are always tricky business for people or organizations under siege in the media. Buy KETAZOLAM without a prescription, Sometimes they can be helpful. When an individual or company is clearly at fault for something, KETAZOLAM description, After KETAZOLAM, a quick apology, full explanation of what went wrong and why, online buying KETAZOLAM hcl, No prescription KETAZOLAM online, and commitment to correcting the error can stanch public disapproval.
In other cases, fast shipping KETAZOLAM, Low dose KETAZOLAM, apologies can sound forced and insincere, like the schoolyard bully forced to apologize to his latest victim, KETAZOLAM wiki. Buy no prescription KETAZOLAM online, These apologies generally reinforce negative ideas about the person or institution issuing the apology. "They just don't get it," even if they want us to believe they do, BUY KETAZOLAM NO PRESCRIPTION.
A third category is the unnecessary apology, real brand KETAZOLAM online, Order KETAZOLAM online c.o.d, or the guilty conscience apology. This is likely where Blankfein's apology falls, doses KETAZOLAM work. KETAZOLAM from canadian pharmacy, Given the CEO's full-throated defense of Goldman's business practices in recent months, the apology Tuesday night is most likely a reaction to the ongoing negative storyline about Goldman, KETAZOLAM results. Japan, craiglist, ebay, overseas, paypal, But the storyline isn't really about Goldman doing anything wrong; it's about Goldman being too well-connected and using public largess to amplify its effective business practices. BUY KETAZOLAM NO PRESCRIPTION, Goldman is too successful at the wrong time. Enormous compensation packages rub salt in the wound, rx free KETAZOLAM. KETAZOLAM brand name, Blankfein's apology is essentially an attempt to say, "We feel your pain." He still believes the company has acted responsibly toward society, KETAZOLAM schedule, Purchase KETAZOLAM online no prescription, shareholders, and employees, is KETAZOLAM safe, Where can i buy KETAZOLAM online, but he thinks he's got to say something to indicate he's aware of public perception.
The problem with such a statement is that it will gain the company nothing, KETAZOLAM no rx. KETAZOLAM gel, ointment, cream, pill, spray, continuous-release, extended-release, No one who despises Goldman will believe the apology is sincere. And people who might otherwise have held Goldman blameless for the financial crisis now have evidence that maybe the bank does deserve some blame, BUY KETAZOLAM NO PRESCRIPTION. If the CEO is apologizing, where can i order KETAZOLAM without prescription, KETAZOLAM pics, it must be because the company did something wrong.
Furthermore, the timing of the apology was unfortunate, coming the same day as Goldman's announcement of its 10,000 Small Businesses initiative, a $500 million effort to provide education, mentoring, and capital to help small businesses grow. The idea was some time in the making and is an effective corporate responsibility program because it's rooted in Goldman's business model and genuinely beneficial to society.
But today the media packaged the announcement with Blankfein's apology and the news theme is that 10,000 Small Businesses is basically an act of penance – and a cheap one at that, representing "less than 3 percent of Goldman's employee compensation pool," as ABC news noted.
The tough thing about being Public Enemy #1 on any particular issue is that everything you say will be held against you. That heightens the need for smart communications and delicate timing.

By Navy Petty Officer 3rd Class Will GaskillAmerican Forces Network Broadcast Center
RIVERSIDE, Calif., Oct. 3, 2012 Once thought to be lost, a film reel containing clips of "The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson" was discovered in a military visual information storage facility here and was turned over Oct. 1 to Jeff Sotzing, nephew of Johnny Carson.
The clips, dating back to 1963, were found on an archived 16 mm film reel stored at the Defense Imagery Management Operations Center, known as DIMOC, just outside of March Air Reserve Base.
In the 1960s, the Armed Forces Radio and Television Service received film reels from the production studios and distributed the programming to its stations for service members around the world. After the footage was shown and no longer needed, it was returned to the studios, destroyed, or sometimes kept on site at the AFRTS facility, now called the American Forces Network Broadcast Center.
"Somebody had the brains or historical foresight to save this reel," said Pedro Loureiro, archivist at DIMOC.
The television industry used to reuse tapes, Loureiro said. Newer episodes were recorded over the older material without much thought of archiving what is now thought of as part of the "golden age" of television.
"Everything from the 1960s is considered lost," he said. "That's what they did with everybody's show," said Sotzing, CEO of the Carson Entertainment Group, the owners of Carson's archive. Besides being related to the late entertainer, Sotzing worked on the show from 1977 to 1992, working his way up from being a runner to producing the show.
"I'm really looking forward to adding this film to the collection. Almost everything from 1962 to 1973 is gone," Sotzing said.
Mary Carnes, a retired program support manager at the broadcast center, discovered the reel as she was sorting through a box of old items that had been overlooked for years.
"As soon as I saw it, I knew it was a gem," Carnes said. "Giving it back to the family and the Carson archives will be like a birthday or Christmas for them.
"This is one of the great parts of the job here," she continued. We can do the work we do to entertain our troops, and document history at the same time. It's really great."
In all, "The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson" highlighted nearly 23,000 stars in 4,351 episodes over a 30-year span. Carson won six Emmy Awards, the Peabody Award, the Presidential Medal of Freedom and Kennedy Center Honors, and is enshrined in the Television Academy Hall of Fame.
"Johnny would make an on-air plea [for lost footage]," Sotzing said. "He would be thrilled to get this. A lot of young people don't know who Johnny Carson is. This helps show them."
The newly discovered footage will be digitally recorded, transcribed and then made available for users of the Carson Entertainment Group's searchable online archives. The physical film will be stored at a former salt mine in Hutchinson, Kan., which currently houses the Carson archives as well as many other Hollywood film archives, Sotzing said.

If you like Queens Of The Stone Age…
For the slightly harder rockers, there are a number of acts that should satisfy the need to thrash.
Friday gets started with the female rock duo, Deap Vally, at 1:30 pm. The group has a vibe similar to The White Stripes' heavier stuff. At 2:15, the head banging really gets going with the Swedish heavy metal band, Ghost B.C. If fans want some electronic sounds with a bite, they should head over to the Crystal Castles show at 4:15. Then it's back to the Bud Light stage for back-t0-back performances by Queens Of The Stone Age and Nine Inch Nails all starting at 6:15.
Saturday is a lighter day for rock fans. Jordan Cook a.k.a. ReignWolf shreds the guitar at 2 pm. For a more classic rock-n-roll vibe similar to Stevie Ray Vaughn and Jimi Hendrix, fans should check out Lukas Nelson & P.O.T.R. at 3:20 at the BMI stage. If fans want to experiment with sound, they should check out the rap-noise duo Death Grips at 7:15.
The last day is more of a punk rock day with things kicking off with Palma Violets at 1 pm. Fans of The Clash will enjoy their set. The British vibe continues with Nightmare & The Cat at 2:10. Or fans can follow up Palma Violets with Alex Clare, who got a boost thanks to the Microsoft Internet Explorer ad. Then things get really heavy with Baroness at 4:30 on the Petrillo stage. Fans should plan to end the weekend with Goth-rock gods, The Cure, at 8 pm on the Red Bull Select stage.
For complete scheduling information, check out the 2013 line-up at Lollapalooza.com.

FORT WORTH, Texas -- More than 1,600 evacuees from Hurricane Ike who have been housed in North Texas will start returning to their homes along the Gulf Coast on Monday.
A City of Fort Worth spokeswoman says buses will pick up the South Texas residents from shelters in Tarrant, Hood, Johnson and Parker counties. Most of the Fort Worth-area shelters will be deactivated.
Storm evacuees will be returning to the Beaumont, Baytown and Houston areas.
More than one million people evacuated the Texas coast. State officials say more than half of some 37,000 evacuees in shelters at the height of Ike's aftermath were gone as of Saturday, and about 175 shelters remained open.
More than 439,000 families had registered for FEMA assistance in the wake of Ike as of Saturday, and about 9,300 were staying in government-funded hotel rooms.

Mystery Gyro G401B (HK401B) modifications
The Mystery gyro G401B (sold by DealExtreme, HobbyKing, xmseller, etc) requires some modifications before using it. It's a
$20 gyro $14 gyro, so don't expect it to have the same build quality of a $150 Futaba GY401
Two major problems were reported in the G401B forum threads:
- The gyro circuit board is not firmly attached to the plastic case, causing problems to the gyro operation.
- The solder joints of the tiny switch for digital/analog/normal/reverse mode can break off the board when flipping the switches.
Items required:
- Hot glue gun (I used a small 10W dual temp gun)
- Small piece of soft foam – 2.5cm x 2.5cm, about 0.8cm thick (1″ x 1″, 1/3″ thick)
How to fix:
It seems like a lot of work but this is actually a 5-minute job:
- Unscrew the gyro case lid and carefully remove the circuit board from the plastic case.
- Add hot glue to the solder joints of the switch block (both sides) so it is secure on the board. If you add too much glue, it will be harder to put it back (I had to carefully trim the excess glue with an x-acto knife).
- Apply hot glue to the servo solders on the board, so the wires are held not only by the solders. Don't let the hot glue gun touch the wires as they will melt.
- While you're there, apply hot glue to the solder joints of the two vertical circuit boards.
- Apply hot glue to each corner of the case and insert the board again. Use something long and thin (like a small screw driver) to press the board against the glue so it gets fixed on the plastic case.
- Insert the square piece of foam when screwing the case lid back. It will help keep the board in a tight, fixed position.
NOTE: Steps 3 and 4 are optional and might be considered overkill by some. I did them anyway as I didn't see any disadvantages.

Ohh the comfort that breadfruit brings. Its, hearty, creamy and oh so wholesome! Today we decided to feature a dish that is very popular among us bajans - breadfruit cou-cou. This dish uses breadfruit as opposed to cornmeal (in our traditional cou-cou) and due to this has a slighty different texture. Breadfruit Cou-Cou is particulary good with saucy meat dishes such as beef stew, chicken stew, creole salt fish, baked mahi mahi etc. Below is a recipe my grandmother used. It is simple but oh is it tasty.
1 large breadfruit (Peeled and cut into 8...

1 right here! Entered JD program to go into public policy. Got sick of politics. Then went to PNW and tech/private sector. I'm sure there are a few others reading this article in the same boat.
There was a special on Discovery Channel released last year about how the same thing happenned in the last millenium....it was called the "Little Ice Age" or something. From approximately 1400-1800AD. Gradual warming in the arctic and near-arctic from 800AD-1400AD allowed year-round settlements in places like Greenland, complete with Vikings and grazing sheep. Then the melt-off of fresh water. That then sinks below the more bouyant salt water. Then the Thermohaline current gets disrupted. Then stuff goes back to being cold in the arctic and near-arctic. And then Thermohaline cycle kicks back on that pushes warm tropical water back up into the north. Nothing new.
There is always that debate about the "intentions" of big-time DivI sports schools: free education vs. turning kids into work mules for $millions in revenue. But this is clearly a case where tOSU could have easily, EASILY denied him admission, on any terms. Or in other words, the upside of enrolling MC is much greater for MC than it is for the tOSU. This article proves to me that while revenue-producing college teams have warts, those warts are vastly outweighed by the intrinsic good of the university overall, its academic history and objectives, and relevancy in the community and state (and for that matter nationally/globally). And while to some critics it will appear tOSU and other large schools are always "using" the kids to make a buck, what they offer young men/women in return is so much greater. Period.
FYI - I think the winning announcement date/time (and entry deadline?) should read: 10AM EDT, Wednesday, June 9th, 2010.
Agreed! The Continental-United merger is almost an inevitability in this economic climate, and with Chicago, NYC/Newark and WashDC hubs all nearby, I doubt CLE would survive. All the more reason to shut down Burke, covert to high-end waterfront park space and mixed commercial/residential, and shift all general aviation to CCA and Hopkins. Or perhaps bid on building the new Boeing tankers or dreamliners at one of those facilities? Yeah right, if Washington State, the home of Boeing, couldn't get its act together, then I have little faith in my motherland doing anything so bold or pro-business...

Brell given Shrovetide's top role
Posted: April 07, 2010|
Comments (0)
THIS week the News Telegraph can exclusively announce the newly elected chairman and vice-chairman of the Ashbourne Royal Shrovetide Committee.
Civil engineer Brell Ewart has been voted into the coveted position, with Ashbourne businessman Nigel Brown elected as vice-chairman.
Committee members say they are delighted with the outcome.
The new appointments follow this year's surprise announcement by current chairman Philip Tomlinson that Shrovetide 2010 would be his last game in charge.
The announcement was met by standing ovations at both pre-game luncheons.
The role of chairman and the newly created role of vice-chairman were decided at the committee's recent annual review meeting and Mr Ewart admitted Mr Tomlinson will be a "hard act to follow".
He said: "Philip Tomlinson has held the position with considerable distinction for 19 years and the game owes a great debt of gratitude to him.
"When the history of the game is written covering the last few decades he will be recorded as one of the greatest chairmen and also players." Speaking about his appointment by his peers, Mr Ewart described it as an "emotional moment".
He said: "I've done many things in my time, I've run my own company for 30 years and been chairman of two railway charities, but none come close to the honour of being elected as chairman of the Royal Shrovetide Committee.
"One mission statement I intend to help the committee stand by is that we will always ensure the game is played annually and as close as possible to the way it has been played for hundreds of years.
"Shrovetide is a mediaeval game played in the 21st century and we want to set the scene for the game to be played for the next 100 years." Away from his Shrovetide duties, Mr Ewart is chairman of one of the town's major employers, Whitehouse Construction, which is based on the Airfield Industrial Estate.
Mr Brown is best known as the charismatic owner of Nigel's Butchers, in Dig Street, but he has also recently taken over the reigns at Dig Street pub and restaurant The Bridge.
