The Department of State has just announced that the immigrant (“EX”) visa category for Registered Nurses and Physical Therapists (green cards) is expected to expire in October, 2006. The 50,000 “recaptured” visas set aside last May 2006 by the U.S. Congress for nurses and PTs are expected to be filled up by that time. Once the EX visa category expires, RN’s and PT’s green card applications will be lumped into the “general” EB3 visa category with other professionals such as accountants, engineers, IT and computer programmers. The EB3 category is backlogged, or “retrogressed,” for five years. For example, a hospital that sponsors a fully-qualified nurse in 2006 will have to wait until 2011 before she becomes eligible for a green card visa instead of the current ten to twelve months processing.This five year back-log will essentially end the supply of foreign-trained nurses and physical therapists into the United States.

nicely... the lakers have the skills to win each and every game for the remainder of the season haha. yet needless to say that isn't happen... i think of the subsequent game they could lose is against Utah in Utah. The Jazz are 9-3 at abode so a approaches and that they have been close with the lakers up until eventually the 4th Q in L.A. So this is obtainable that they could lose that one... yet I doubt it. yet while they beat the wolves and Jazz, they are going to def. lose to the Bulls :D =P precise now I wouldnt %. against the lakers. If Boston/Orlando have been on that checklist you gave... then perhaps i might say that lakers might lose a type of... ummmm... i say the lakers will pass on a 40 5 game triumphing streak jk =P i think of it will end around 15-17... they are going to in all hazard have an off game. Or they could smash the checklist for many wins in a row.. if the rockets have been waiting to win 20+ in a row a pair of years in the past whilst managing injuries... i dont see why the lakers won't be able to do it. yet stable success! =]
