That Diversity Recognition thing doesn't make any sense - how can it determine % Hispanic? Most Hispanics here (Texas) self-identify as white, Mexican-American.

Neck 'adjustments' from chiropractors can tear the intima (lining) of the vertebral arteries, which travel up through little holes in the sides of the cervical vertebra.
