Hispanics split on how to address surge
in Central American child migrants
By Jens Manuel Krogstad and Ana
Gonzalez-Barrera, Pew Research Center
H
ispanics in the U.S. are divided
on how to deal with the thousands of Central American
children illegally arriving in the country,
according to a Pew Research survey conducted earlier this month. About as many
Hispanics support the current system for
deciding immigration cases as do those
expediting the process (49% – 47%),
which would have the effect of speeding
up deportations.
The split among Hispanics is in contrast
to views of the overall public, which backs
a faster process over the current policy by
53% to 39%.
Under current practice, it can take
months or even years before the children
are processed through the U.S. immigration system and either given asylum (or
other legal status) or ordered deported.

the president low marks on his handling
of the surge of children. Some 46% of
Hispanics disapprove and 34% approve

partisan disagreements since the Senate
passed a bill one year ago but the House
did not take up the measure.
Hispanics are more likely than the

Congress to act on immigration. Threequarters (75%) of Hispanics say it’s
“extremely” or “very important” to pass
significant new immigration legislation this year, compared with 61% of the
general U.S. public.
Indeed, Hispanics put a premium on
changes in deportation policy. By a 55%

important for undocumented immigrants
to get relief from deportation than it is to
have a pathway to citizenship, according
to a 2013 survey of Hispanic adults by the
Pew Research Center’s Hispanic Trends
Project.

The Alphabet Soup of Radiation Oncology...or how EBRT becomes 3D-CRT,
IMRT and IGRT at the TCCC
I
By, Carl Berkowitz
n the field of radiation oncology
‘high energy’ usually refers to the
energy of particles or radiation
used to destroy tumors or cancerous
cells. But when Dr. Sue Mandell,
Medical Director and Radiation
Oncologist at the Tri-Cities Cancer
Center (TCCC), took a break in her
busy schedule to talk about new
therapeutic tools available to TCCC
patients, ‘high energy’ was the
term that came to mind to describe
her enthusiasm about many of the
new treatments she’s seen develop
during her career. Her focus was on
treatments categorized as ‘External
Beam Radiation Therapy’, or EBRT.
While this may sound like jargon from
the science fiction show ‘Star Trek’,
it’s real world medical capability
available at the TCCC.
Dr. Mandell said that in the early
days of radiation oncology the
region of treatment was identified
by lining up frontal- and side- x-ray
images of the patient to define the
area of interest. Now, 3 dimensional
transverse cross section images from
computer tomography, or ‘CT’ scan,
can identify the exact location of
the tumor(s). And having precisely
identified the tumor volume
selected for treatment, the TCCC’s
linear accelerator can direct highenergy beams of radiation to this
location using a technique called
Three-Dimensional
Conformal
Radiation Therapy, or ‘3D-CRT’.
3D-CRT combines the processing
patients. If a patient opts for protocol
inclusion, images and treatment plans
can be electronically transmitted to
other nationally recognized radiation
oncologists, allowing cross planning
consultations to be done.

technology with the
capabilities of modern

over the strength and
positioning of these

can IMRT direct individual beams to
the exact location where they will
be most effective, but the beam

Some of her patients have tumors and

move between or during treatments.
These situations can arise when
pressure from other organs move

from normal body movements such
as those associated with breathing.
For these patients, she can now use
‘Image Guided Radiation Therapy,
or’ IGRT’. This new treatment starts
with the patient receiving a CT scan
right before therapy, giving her
information that lets her and the
staff precisely target the area.
The last point that came up during
our conversation was a feature some
patients may not be aware but which
is recognized as key to effective care.
This is the ease of communication
with other physicians. Dr. Mandell

Government closing emergency
child immigrant shelters
“Committed to Your Comfort!”
“Home of tHe
90 minute
tune-up”
This June 23, 2014, photograph shows a temporary child immigrant shelter for kids that illegally entered the
United States, at Lackland Airforce Base in San Antonio, Texas.
T
WASHINGTON (AP)
he government said Monday it
will soon close three emergency
shelters it established at U.S.
military bases to temporarily house children caught crossing the Mexican border
alone. It said fewer children were being
caught and other shelters will be adequate.
A shelter in Oklahoma at Fort Sill is
expected to close as early as Friday, the
Health and Human Services Department said. Shelters in Texas at Joint Base
San Antonio-Lackland and in California at Naval Base Ventura County-Port
Hueneme will wrap up operations in the
next two to eight weeks, agency spokesman Kenneth Wolfe said. About 7,700
children had been housed at the three
military bases since shelters there opened
in May and early June. They stayed an
average of 35 days.
Since Oct. 1 more than 57,000 unaccompanied children, mostly from Honduras, El Salvador and Guatemala, have
been caught crossing the Mexican border
illegally.
A 2008 law requires that unaccompanied child immigrants from countries
that don't border the United States be
handed over to the Health and Human
Services Department within 72 hours
of being apprehended. The children are
cared for by the government until they
can be reunited with a relative or another
sponsor in the United States while they
await a deportation hearing in immigration court.
The crush of Central American children
caught at the border in recent months has
strained resources across the government
and prompted President Barack Obama
to ask Congress to approve an emergency $3.7 billion spending bill to deal
with what he described as a humanitarian
crisis. Members of the House of Representatives left town for the August recess
without acting on the request.
Last month the Homeland Security
Department reported that the number
of child immigrants crossing the border
alone had started to decline, from as
many as 2,000 each week in June to about
500 each week in mid-July. Administration officials said at the time that multiple
factors likely contributed to the decline.
The number of people caught crossing the border illegally typically declines
during the hottest summer months.
Administration officials have said as
many 90,000 child immigrants could
cross the border by the end of the budget
year in September.
The military base shelters could reopen
if the number of young border crossers
spikes again in the near future, Wolfe said.

San Jose beats Sounders 1-0 in Levi’s Stadium opener

W
ith a couple of quick
touches and one slick kick,
Yannick Djalo and the San
Jose Earthquakes put the exclamation
point on a crowd-pleasing opener at the
San Francisco 49ers’ new home.
Djalo scored from the edge of the box
on a crisp pass from Chris Wondolowski
in the 42nd minute, and the Earthquakes
held off the Seattle Sounders 1-0 on Saturday night in the first sporting event at
Levi’s Stadium.
‘’I’ve had some other great moments
in my career that I’ve really enjoyed, and
tonight’s going to take a special place
among those memories,’’ said Djalo, who
left in the second half with a strained
right quadriceps. ‘’It’s a fantastic stadium
and a beautiful place to play.’’
The red jersey-wearing Quakes
(6-8-5) christened the new $1.2 billion

Wondolowski floated a pass from
midfield over a defender and right onto
Djalo’s feet. Djalo controlled the ball
and flicked it past a charging Stefan Frei
for his third goal this season, sending
most of the announced crowd of 48,765
roaring out of their seats.
‘’It was an incredible night,’’ Quakes
coach Mark Watson said. ‘’Our guys were
excited and they wanted to put on a good
show.’’
It was the second straight shutout loss
for the Sounders. They lost 3-0 at home
to Landon Donovan and the Los Angeles
Galaxy on Monday night.
‘’It’s frustrating to lose,’’ Clint Dempsey
said. ‘’But we had some good looks. We
just couldn’t put them in the back of the
net.’’
It was the biggest win so far this season
for the Quakes, who are last in the West,
but hope they can turnaround their
season.

From my balcony
Mexico goalkeeper Ochoa signs
three-year contract with Malaga
MALAGA, Spain (AP)
M
exico goalkeeper Guillermo
Ochoa, who was a free agent
after leaving French club
AC Ajaccio, has agreed to join Malaga by
signing a three-year contract.
The 29-year-old, who was one of the star
performers at the World Cup in Brazil, had
reportedly attracted interest from Arsenal
and Liverpool. However, the Gunners have
signed Colombia’s David Ospina while
the Brendan Rodgers’ side look poised to
retain second choice shot-stopper Pepe
Reina.
Ochoa, who will be wearing the number
13 shirt, arrives at La Rosaleda Stadium as
a direct replacement for Willy Caballero.
Last month, the 32-year-old Argentinean
was reunited with his former boss Manuel
Pellgrini at Manchester City.
The statement on Malaga’s official
website read, “Málaga Club de Fútbol has
reached an agreement to sign one of the
best goalkeepers from the recent World
Cup in Brazil, Francisco Guillermo Ochoa
Magaña (Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico,
07/13/85), who will wear the Blue and
Whites’ shirt for the next three seasons.”
Ochoa successfully passed the routine
medical checks and was presented on
Friday, August 1st at the La Rosaleda’s
press room.
After his presentation at the club’s press
room on Friday, Ochoa said, “My focus is to
dedicate myself to training, work hard and
give 100%. I’m very detailed in my work
and always try to get the most out of myself
for the good of the team, and achieve the
best results possible in matches.
“The most important thing for a goalkeeper is to make sure the team feels secure
and calm on the pitch. I always try to be
a serious keeper, to make sure our defense
feel comfortable that I have everything
covered at the back when the ball is near
the goal area.”
“I’ve heard that the fans here are very
passionate about football, and the stadium
is full every other weekend, both in good
times and bad, the fans are always behind
the team,” he concluded.

Paying the right
amount for a house
Dear Dave,
I know you recommend that no more
than 25 percent of your
take-home pay should
go toward rent or a
mortgage
payment.
Should taxes and insurance be figured into
this amount?
Kayla
Dave Ramsey
Dear Kayla,
Yes, they should. Mortgage companies
will qualify you for twice as much house
as you can realistically afford. They’ll
try to put you on a 30-year, adjustablerate mortgage and leave you in debt
up to your eyeballs for half of your life.
Payments like that can easily equal 36
percent or more of your take-home pay.
That’s just nuts!
I see so many people who can’t take
a decent vacation or save anything for
retirement or their kids’ college fund
because their mortgage payment is
through the roof. That’s called being
“house poor.” And I’ve even seen it push
people into debt just to buy groceries.
It would then be best to rescue the
value of things and the details that
make up our existence. That way
we would learn to cope with experiences that at certain times seem
huge and unmanageable. For me,
the presence or passage through
life is not anything but the enjoyment of dreams, a small sonnet, a
brief history…
It’s fine if you want to follow my guidelines. But what I’m really trying to do is
get you to think. Engage in some critical
thinking when it comes to your finances.
There’s so much more to life than that
building we call a house. I want you to
think about your future and your family’s future and make smart money decisions that will change your family tree
for years to come!
Our path through life isn’t something that’s easy to explain or to
understand. It’s something that
can only be told while being alive,
and it is not something that is a
part of the future, it is something
that is here and now. We must take
advantage of this journey through
life because it offers opportunities
to grow as people, see unimaginable things, believe in something…
to love, dream, be disappointed,
feel, think, breath, and like me…to
suffer.
—Dave
Have a happy week, and God Bless!

San Jose beats Sounders 1-0 in Levi’s Stadium opener
SANTA CLARA, California (AP)
W
ith a couple of quick
touches and one slick kick,
Yannick Djalo and the San
Jose Earthquakes put the exclamation
point on a crowd-pleasing opener at the
San Francisco 49ers’ new home.
Djalo scored from the edge of the box
on a crisp pass from Chris Wondolowski
in the 42nd minute, and the Earthquakes
held off the Seattle Sounders 1-0 on Saturday night in the first sporting event at
Levi’s Stadium.
‘’I’ve had some other great moments
in my career that I’ve really enjoyed, and
tonight’s going to take a special place
among those memories,’’ said Djalo, who
left in the second half with a strained
right quadriceps. ‘’It’s a fantastic stadium
and a beautiful place to play.’’
The red jersey-wearing Quakes
(6-8-5) christened the new $1.2 billion
high-tech venue with a swift and stunning goal before withstanding a flurry
of shots from the Western Conferenceleading Sounders (12-6-2) in the closing

roaring out of their seats.
‘’It was an incredible night,’’ Quakes
coach Mark Watson said. ‘’Our guys were
excited and they wanted to put on a good
show.’’
It was the second straight shutout loss
for the Sounders. They lost 3-0 at home
to Landon Donovan and the Los Angeles
Galaxy on Monday night.
‘’It’s frustrating to lose,’’ Clint Dempsey
said. ‘’But we had some good looks. We
just couldn’t put them in the back of the
net.’’
It was the biggest win so far this season
for the Quakes, who are last in the West,
but hope they can turnaround their
season.
The night still belonged to the new
stadium, though for all its glitzy and
grand amenities, still has several kinks
to work out. Some fans complained on
social media of congested traffic and
long lines getting into the stadium, and
others reported issues with the free wireless Internet and smartphone application.
