I have to say that though there have been dramatic improvements in the range of vegan and dairy-free Easter chocolate egg options on the mainstream market, I'm still disappointed in the available products.
Maybe I'm too picky? I don't know, but I do know that for now, the commercial vegan Easter eggs just don't live up to the chocolates I used to enjoy as a child. It could also be that traditions being different here in the UK, I find it hard to recreate my childhood Easter celebration, which consisted of my mother hiding mini chocolate eggs all around the living room, dining room and kitchen, and my sister and I racing to gather the most. We'd count them up afterwards, sorting them into large mixing bowls (that I still have to this day) and whoever had the most was the winner.
So, Dear Chocolate Makers of Britain, I'm sorry to say that your Easter eggs are not up to scratch.
Call me finnicky, but I just want what I want. Enter these vegan Chocolate Praline Easter Eggs.
This recipe is based on my Guylians Chocolate Sea Shells, which would also be perfect for Easter. An Easter egg should be a surprise, a delight; that's what these are. A creamy chocolate shell covering a decadent hazelnut praline chocolate centre, wrapped in fierce determination and served with a side of gluttony.
Happy Easter, everyone! I hope you have a wicked weekend and eat chocolate to your heart's content.
Note: I have included a link to an Easter egg mould in the recipe BUT it isn't the one I have. It's as close as I could find. The Easter egg mould I own came from eBay but doesn't seem to be available anymore. The egg sizes are like small chicken's eggs, or quails' eggs. Medium-small-ish is what I would call them, but I know that's infuriatingly vague. This one also looks similar to my mould.

When drugs are learned in isolation from their associated diseases, students have difficulty connecting pharmacotherapy, pathophysiology, and nursing care. Pharmacology for Nurses: A Pathophysiologic Approach, Fifth Edition, helps students master pharmacology by tightly linking it to therapeutic goals and patient wellness. Organized by body systems and diseases, it places drugs in context with how they are used therapeutically. Students can then easily locate relevant anatomy, physiology, pathology, and pharmacology in the same chapter. Nursing Process Application features clearly relate pharmacology to key nursing processes. Features highlighting complementary therapies, community-oriented and evidence-based practices, and lifespan considerations help students make connections to nursing practice. To give students a clear picture of the holistic nature of pharmacology, the Fifth Edition reflects current pharmacotherapeutics and advances in understanding disease.
MyNursingLab is an an online homework, tutorial, and assessment program designed to engage students in the Pharmacology course and improve results. Its guided learning path is proven to help students think like a nurse as they move beyond memorization to true understanding through application.

David Ford opens up about his new album Charge and taking on America
By: Casey Hicks
For David Ford, success has been measured not in devastating bar tabs and sold out arenas. The English singer-songwriter has seen record deals come and go, but on his own he has been able to put out record after record of heartbreaking ballads, punchy social criticisms, and raw beauty. The humble but honest musician has found a new home at Razor & Tie just in time for the physical release of his latest album Charge.
First of all, David, I'd just like to say thanks for agreeing to talk to me today and happy birthday.
Oh, thanks very much.
So, your new album Charge has some ties to New York. James Brown (Sound City, Foo Fighters, Kings of Leon) mixed and produced it in Brooklyn. Could you tell me a little bit about how that came about?
James is an old friend of mine. We've worked together a lot in the past about ten years or so. He's a lovely guy, and he really gets me, and we get on very well, too. Whenever I have a record to make, he's arguably the first call I make. What happened was I made the album myself at home, and I think he was over the phone or the the Internet or whatever, that's how that thing works, to help out, back me up if I was going in the right direction or telling me off if I was going in the wrong direction, or both. Once I'd done that, I sent the whole thing over to him, and he fixed it.
In your book (I Choose This) you described how easy or difficult it was actually coming about your solo albums and your work with Easyworld, so how did Charge compare to your last album in terms of effort getting it out?
It was very similar, getting it out because my circumstances haven't been changed. I'm still basically outside of the music business. Nobody puts any expectations or pressure on me to come up with any commercial goods. Essentially I'm in the luxurious position of being able to make music that I want to make with no constraints, no time or having to come on a radio program or anything like that. It's a joy to make music. I feel very privileged I'm able to do that. I don't have to have that desperate need to please people who are just trying to make you famous. It's a joyous thing, my process.
With this album, the lyrics seem to be less political than your last few and far more personal. Was that a conscious decision on your part, or did it just come out of whatever songs you happened to write at the time?
Yeah, I don't think I've ever concentrated or focused to say this album's going to be about this or I'm going to lean away from politics and towards personal matters. I guess as I get older, and I think it's what happens to everyone really, you become less revolutionary and enraged by political matters. When you're young, you think you can change the world, that you can put out music and make a difference. I'm not saying I've given up on that, I still am an idealist, but you kind of reach an age where you try and win what battles you can. I guess I definitely realized that we're actually not going to win the big fight. I think the direction that we're going in the world, that doesn't please me, obviously. We're a very greedy species, and that bothers me. I'm pleased to write songs now that talk about other things. I'm taking on battles now that I think I can face.
You've released several EPs as well as albums, so how important is the format of the LP to you?
To me, It's very important. I know it's me being entirely self-indulgent. I understand the world doesn't want the album as a format anymore, that it's an archaic, outdated way of presenting music, but I still love it in the same way as it's still very valid, very artful, and people should still do it. I understand by making albums as albums, two-sided LPs and really understanding the direction of the album and how that comes together, that it should have a common strand running through it. I understand that by doing that I'm not helping myself as far as career or anything. I think that for me, that's the way that I've always liked songs to be presented, all of that writing to be presented in 45-minute time slots. I hope to keep making them forever.
For you, what was the easiest song on the album to come together lyrically and musically and the most difficult for you?
I think the easiest one was the penultimate song, "Throwaway," which I wrote and recorded maybe in a day, which is very rare for me because I like to really obsess over things. I like to process it right, to make it really traumatic and abscessed. I'm not afraid of dark places, and I'm really happy just to get it right. For that song, it's surprising since it is a sad song with a very happy process. It came together recorded in a very simple manner, and I was very happy with it. I put it down live in my basement in about two takes.
As far as difficult ones, "Every Time" was a bit of a mammoth undertaking. Working away from the field without musicians, without producers and attempting to make a song as grandiose and pompous as I wanted it to be is a bit of a challenge. It's quite a lot of working out how to get all the technical stuff. That's definitely a lot of work.
Well the song certainly came out really well, and that reminds me of how you decide to translate these songs live. Are you keeping that in your head when you're recording, or are you trying to record the most perfect version and then work out the live version later?
Yeah, that's definitely the way it is. When I'm recording, I don't give any consideration to the fact that I have to perform it live. There's no way I could ever recreate some of the live range. Some of them have parts of an orchestra on them. I don't think I'm going to be able to bust out the London Philharmonic any time soon. I just try to make the best recording I can of how I think the perfect, definitive recorded version should be. That's not to say that the live version is a poor imitation or a crappier version. There's something magical about playing live. You can do a lot more with less. I really enjoy the sense of it being liberating.
So you're getting ready to tour America soon, and when you're going to be in New York, you're going to be at Rockwood Music Hall for two nights in a row playing a completely different set both nights. How did you decide to break it up like that?
It came about because I played Rockwood last year and really, really enjoyed the gig. As far as venues go, I think it's one of the best I've seen anywhere in the world. They wanted to have me back again this year, so it was actually their idea to book two nights. I kind of thought if I'm going to do two nights, I don't want to do the same set two nights in a row. The way some people who come to gigs, they're a bit crazy and want to come to both nights, so I figured for anyone paying to see me two nights in a row, at least make it interesting, so I just kind of thought I'll break it up. I haven't quite worked out how it's going to work. I think one night's just going to be with a band and one night I'll be on my own. I've got different openers each night who are going to be part of the show, part of my show as well as their own sets. It's going to be pretty complicated and hopefully a bit exciting and dangerous. I like the opportunity for things to go wrong. I think those nights should hopefully be full of disaster.
Well, I'm looking forward to it regardless. What are the differences between touring here versus back in the UK?
There are practical differences. It's much easier over here in Britain because I have all my stuff here, I have a car here, I know my way around, and also our country's really tiny. So it's much easier for me being British and being based here just to get around. In America, obviously I kind of have to live a bit like a hobo, whatever I can pull around, whatever I can get on the plane goes there. Apart from that, they're similar apart from the exception that I think, I feel American audiences maybe appreciate me a bit more. They appreciate that I made the journey. Whenever I show up in American towns, they're really very warm and welcoming.
Charge is available on iTunes now and will be released physically on June 4th. He plays Rockwood Music Hall on June 11th and 12th.

If, say, Rob were to give me a kudo for this reply, I'd be 2/3 (not sure if this rant counts as a post or not) to an "Enrich" badge. give a kudo, get a kudo, complain about this silliness, get a badge.
I had not known that kudos were missing from my life until I read Dain and Rob's comments. Kudos to you both.
I am sad, however, that it is not June, and so all of these kudos will go to waste.
The goal of this program is to add a little fun and reward those who are proactively engaging and contributing to the community. We welcome your suggestions as to how we can help make the community a valuable resource for all members. How do you want to engage your peers? What's missing from the community? What should be on our roadmap? How can we make it easier for you to use?
That request is open to all community members. We welcome all input and ideas to help make this community as valuable a resource as possible for everyone, including new members as well as long-time industry veterans. You can post your suggestions here as comments, by messaging me directly (you can click on my username to go to my profile and click the send private message button), or by emailing community@isc2.org.
I appreciate the effort to try to enrich the community. As this is a growing thing, there needs to be ways to increase community engagement. Sometimes getting people to make that first step is what starts them down the road to more engagement. I like having discussions with other community members because we all are a part of this big thing called the Internet. This type of interaction is what a tiny piece of the Internet is about.
Badges will mean more to some people and less to others. This community will cause some people to meet that might otherwise not had a chance to meet. I don't see it going back to Cub Scouts. Hopefully this causes more engagement and not just posting for posting sake.
The idea that goofy jpg badges are necessary or benefficial to get / increase participation suggests that the medium is suffering from a lack of relevance. I know that there are a number of people who have communicated with various individuals @ ISC from the "old Curmudgeons" lair of the CISSP Forum. Yet nothing seems to change. Can we be sarcastic, caustic, ridiculous even? Sure. But I've learned a ton from those same people. Its probably the single most valuable resource to come out of becoming a CISSP, even tho I don't always agree with e.g. Donn Parker, I've had conversations with Donn Parker, and thats pretty cool.
Theres an existing group that could already serve this need, and has in the past (the only badges there are for putting up with the more, err caustic of us, ignoring furbys, and actually making everyone laugh).
"We welcome your suggestions as to how we can help make the community a valuable resource for all members."
Do something about the interface. I'd like to see some way to know, quickly, what has happened today/recently. (Yes, I know you have your "latest topics" and oddly chosen "hot topics," but with the CISSPforum and any decent MUA I can see, in moments, what has happened in the past day (or even several, if I've been busy), and quickly choose what I need to deal with. This existing interface requires me to wade through all kinds of dreck to find out ... well, usually to find out that nothing of any significance has been said recently.
"How do you want to engage your peers?"
Well, maybe that's it. I want to engage my peers. This "community" seems to have been designed with the worst of social media in mind, the kind of thing that spawned jokes about everyone tweeting about their breakfast. I'm a professional. I'm busy. I have technologies and compliance issues I need to keep up with. I don't particularly need to read everyone's opinions about the best book to study in order to pass an exam that ALL OF US HAVE ALREADY PASSED!!!
"What's missing from the community?"
"What should be on our roadmap?"
"How can we make it easier for you to use?"
I wanted to thank everyone for providing feedback on how we can make the Community work better for our members. I also wanted to provide an update on how you can get subscriptions for the Community.
Each board offers a subscription service that allows you to get notified when new posts are created. To subscribe to a board, you can go to the area you want to subscribe to, say the Career board, then at the top right click on the Options menu and select Subscribe. The default is to get an immediate email notification for all posts; however, you can update your settings by clicking here and change the settings to turn off notifications for certain activities (like badge notifications) or change them to a daily or weekly digest instead of the immediate default.
If you have any questions on this, please let me know.
Ooh! Ooh! New idea for a badge!
"Snapchat's interface distributes badges to users who maintain daily streaks–a nifty system built in part on humans' well-studied psychological need to bank progress."
Can we please get rid of the badges? We are professionals in a serious profession; we do not need participation trophies or facebook-like dopamine hits.
This is a D-U-M-B idea. We are not kids. I will not hire a security person who is excited by the idea of earning badges in a professional forum.
To help illustrate my point, I will share two videos for your consideration.
Thank you for the explanation and clarifying the requirements.
rslade gave kind of a good idea. (I don't have interface issues like others, fortunately). Perhaps notifications on new topics based on keywords that an individual says they want to be notified on would be helpful. For instance, if I am interested in cloud topics, I would update my notification preferences with the keyword "cloud" and receive automated notifications whenever a new blog or article was posted with that topic.
I worked with our local college and an developing a new course for computer science students at Winona State University - Rochester, CS 423 Computer and Network Security. As an adjunct faculty member, I have added a full day of training for my CS 344 Web Programming students in secure development. This is their first introduction to computer security and secure development.
CS 423 Computer and Network Security will be the first this type of course has been taught and is already generating excitement among current and past students.I give Kudos to the Dean and full time faculty for allowing me to bring this course to their curriculum. I look forward to bringing the principles of (ISC)2 to my students in promoting the ethics and introductory knowledge they will need to help secure our future.
How do I tell if I achieved a Badge and where it is displayed?
Are these badges given at the end of month?
How about new users registered in August (And hence they missed the June / July) phase?
Thank you both for posting on the Community. I wanted to reach out and answer the questions you left on this post.
By default you will receive a notification via email and in the Community when you earn a new badge. The badges can be seen on your Community profile, which can be viewed by clicking on your avatar in a circle at the top right (next to the search bar all the way at the top) and selecting My Profile. The badges will display to the left of your screenname and avatar picture.
The badges at the moment are run manually and are given out on a weekly basis to those who have earned them. If you did not earn the previous badge(s) for any reason, you can still work to get the current set of badges in the badge campaign.
If you have any other questions, please do not hesitate to reply here or reach out to me directly (you can click on my username to go to my profile and send a private message, if you prefer).


You know that a certain teacher reuses his tests from previous years. Can you study using tests from prior years, knowing that one of them will probably be the test for this year? Is this considered cheating?
This question is asked every year by dozens of students. It takes a tremendous amount of koach (energy) from teachers to go and prepare a decent test. A sloppy test is bad for the student, and is also bad for the teacher. Loads of hours go into making a good test. After four, five, or six times, the teacher may start repeating these tests and all the student has to do is memorize the answers to five or six tests. It's not at all dishonest. You probably have a good review of 80% of the whole subject when you go through all the tests.
It is hard for me to say that it's ossur (prohibited) or that it's immoral. It's a higher level of morality not to do it, and study. But it's definitely not something that you could even taint by saying it's ossur or by saying it's immoral, because it does lead to a good knowledge of the material. It provides a pretty decent review.
If there are only one or two tests, then the teacher is a fool. The students will just copy the test and not learn anything. But if there are five, six or more tests, a teacher worked very hard for several years making the tests, and if you go through all the teacher's tests, you'll probably learn a lot.
There are review books that print many old tests that are available for everybody. Of course they don't make the same tests all the time. They'll make new tests. There are public institutions that have staff that make new tests every year.
If the person didn't learn the material well enough, he really can't copy the answers to all the questions. If he has the copies that he takes with him to the test, then he's really cheating.
You say not using the old tests is considered a higher level of morality. Is that similar to what the Mishnah Berurah says, "A baal nefesh (conscientious person) will do such and such a thing"?
Yes. A baal nefesh wouldn't want to look at that test. I'll tell you why. A baal nefesh wouldn't do such things because he may taint his nefesh (soul), and he might get used to doing things like that. He will just slip from one level to the next. He will stay away from doing such a thing if he wants to observe "m'dvar sheker tirchak" (distance yourself from falsehood). He will practice real harchokoh (distance) and he will try to stay away from anything that could lead him astray.
Let's say you really did study, you know the material, and you just want to use the test only as a review. Should a baal nefesh refuse doing even that?
No. That's mutar (permissible) even for a baal nefesh.
NEXT WEEK'S QUESTION 87: REIMBURSEMENT FOR 99% OF TRAVEL EXPENSES?
I often have to travel for business, and I put the hotel travel expenses on my credit card. My credit card gives me 1% back for my total yearly expenses as a cash bonus at the end of the year. I'm reimbursed for travel expenses from my company. Should I be claiming from my company the whole 100% of expenses, or only 99%, since I'm going to get back 1% from the credit card company. Does it matter that the expense department at my work would find it difficult, or odd, to refund 99%, when this would not match the hotel receipts?

Special thanks to Rain International's Seeds for Change Foundation. With their support we have expanded our ability to provide opportunities to people throughout the Lugazi, Uganda community.
The Amaani Collective workshop sits on the edge of Uganda's incredible Mabira Rainforest, just a few miles down the road from the small but bustling community of Lugazi. Our story began years ago, with only a few local artisans, but has grown to include more than 50 women, the majority of whom still hail from Lugazi.
Previously, we set out to help fund a library for the villagers of Lugazi, which has been functioning out of a small rented space. However, after seeing the success of our current space, town leadership in Lugazi donated a prime piece of land for us to establish a better library. We are currently fundraising towards a larger, more centralized library to provide access to more readers. The new establishment will be a stand-alone building in the heart of Lugazi, easily accessible to everyone.
To expand our reach even further, we are creating "mini-libraries" in the 32 schools of Lugazi, to help reduce the lack of books in local schools. Each mini-library will consist of a shelf with a variety of books for students to read. Our local librarian, Nixon, will deliver a new set of books by motorcycle (called a "boda boda") regularly. The "book boda" will be used to exchange books between schools, opening new worlds to Lugazi students.
Contact us to learn how your school or community can get involved in Read-a-Thons to support our Lugazi Community Library.
Ashlaf is the son of Prossy, an Amaani artisan. Despite the physical limitations of living with severe cerebral palsy and epilepsy, Ashlaf was a bright and strong young man that would light up any room he was in. It was his cheerful and resilient attitude despite constant pain and isolation that inspired the creation of the "Ashlaf Ability Center" in Lugazi, Uganda. The first of its kind in the region, the Ashlaf Ability Center is intended to be a sanctuary where children with disabilities can come learn, play, socialize, and receive proper nutrition and therapy. Parents learn coping skills, physical therapy techniques, and are free to work while their children are cared for.
Construction of the Ashlaf Ability Center began in the summer of 2018, but unfortunately, Ashlaf passed away on February 9th, 2019. With the building only partially constructed, he never had the chance to experience a day in the center built in his name. Therefore, in his memory, we are dedicated to finishing the center to change lives and improve outcomes for dozens of children like Ashlaf throughout the Lugazi, Uganda region.
Contact us to learn how you and your community can get involved in supporting the Ability Center.

Apparently, it's back -to-school season. Something I don't quite have to deal with yet, but lunches are always a pain in my book – even working from home. I like them to be quick and easy, and hopefully healthy. So here's a few ideas to get you through the next couple weeks. Some adventurous, some kid friendly, and all of them should hold up pretty well in a lunch box. Either way, they're something new so you won't get stuck in a lunch rut.
Happy back-to-school, and happy lunching!

Wedding bells will chime in the near future for Mariah Carey and James Packer.
Wedding bells will chime in the near future for Mariah Carey and James Packer, Billboard reports.
The pair got engaged earlier this week during an evening of entertaining friends and family at a private dinner in New York City. The couple met in 2014 and have meshed ever since, so it's only right that they seek to make things official.
Carey and Packer are also the definition of a power couple given the famed singer's net worth thanks to her album sales and endorsements, to Packer's casino conglomerate, which has made him a billionaire.
There's no word on what time of year the pair will tie the knot.

Dr. Dre Released From Hospital, Will Receive 24-Hour Home Care
Dr. Dre was released from L.A. Cedars Sinai Medical Center on Friday (Jan. 15), nearly two weeks after he suffered a reported brain aneurysm. Ice T confirmed the news tweeting, "Just FaceTimed with @drdre. He just made it home. Safe and looking good."
The 55-year-old music mogul will remain under 24-hour care for the next few weeks as medical professionals continue to monitor his progress. Doctors are still unclear on what caused the aneurysm.
Dre's hospital release comes days after new details were revealed in his divorce from estranged wife, Nicole Young. According to court documents publicized this week, Nicole accuses Dre, birth name Andre Young, of putting a gun to her head in 2000 and 2001. She also details other alleged abuse incidents in 1995 (before they were married) and in 2016, when he allegedly punched her in the face and kicked down her door.
The Grammy winner has denied Nicole's abuse claims.
Nicole and Dre tied the knot in 1996. The pair share two adult children, Truice and Truly. Nicole filed for divorce last summer.
In addition to demanding that Dre cover her legal fees, Nicole wants the court to take the abuse allegations into account when "awarding support and fees." Dre has already agreed to pay $500,000 of Nicole's legal bills and $2 million in temporary spousal support.

Cardi B is making her way back to the big screen. The Bronx native officially landed her first leading role in the upcoming Paramount comedy, Assisted Living.
According to Variety, Cardi will play a small time crook struggling to find a hiding place after her latest heist fails. Her character, "Amber," disguises herself as an elderly woman and hides out at her grandmother's nursing home. The film is described as a "raucous comedy" similar to Mrs. Doubtfire and Sister Act.
Paramount acquired the rights to Assisted Living in 2019. The film's script was penned by This Is Us writer, Kay Oyegun.
Cardi, 28, made her film debut in the 2019 celeb-heavy stripper flick, Hustlers. The "WAP" rapper appears to have hinted at her Assisted Living role in a recent interview with Billboard where she dished on filming scenes for Fast & Furious 9.
"After 'Hustlers' I filmed a little bit for 'Fast & Furious' so I felt like 'I'm ready for this,' I knew what to expect," she explained. "But the characters were a little different so I was like 'Oh wow, I'm going to need more acting classes.' I'm planning on doing a movie this year and I'm going to be the lead role so I'm like 'I need to execute this flawlessly.'"
Besides film, Cardi was a judge on the Netflix completion show, Rhythm & Flow, and landed her own Facebook Watch series, Cardi Tries.

Wendy Williams Reveals She Was Date Raped By '80s R&B Singer
Wendy Williams revealed that she was date raped by '80s R&B singer, Sherrick, early in her radio career. The talk show host shared the story with reporters while promoting her Lifetime biopic Wendy Williams: The Movie on Tuesday (Jan. 12).
"He mesmerized me with his twinkling eyes," she recalled. "He flipped the interview around to where he was interviewing me — I was just gaga over this man and he asked me to go to an album release party with him that night.
"Before the party, I was date raped by him," said Williams.
Sherrick, born Lamotte Smith, was a member of the group Kagny, whose song is featured on The Last Dragon soundtrack. He signed to Warner Bros. Records in 1987 and scored a marginal hit with the single "Just Call" off his debut self-titled album. Sherrick struggled with sobriety but declared himself "drug-free" before dying of unknown causes in 1999.
Williams says that she was raped in Sherrick's Washington D.C. hotel room and it, unfortunately, wasn't her first time being sexually assaulted. The New Jersey native had been date raped in college. "Those types of things happen to girls all the time and they've been happening a lot, to a lot of our mothers, grandmothers, great-grandmothers, and their great-great-grandmothers too."
From the sounds of it, Sherrick's widow doesn't exactly believe Williams' story. She not only questioned Williams' account but wondered why she waited so long to go public, and why she didn't call police at the time of the incident.
"As I will never minimize or dismiss the horrid actions of sexual assault, I am saddened that Ms. Williams feels the need to publicly make these allegations when the man she is accusing is no longer on this earth to defend himself," Lynne Conner Smith said in a statement to Page Six. "Our family does not know Ms. Williams and are not aware of any relationship or encounter they may have had."
The sexual assault will be chronicled in the film, as well as other details from Williams' life -- like her rise to talk show fame, her battle with drug addiction, and marriage to ex-husband Kevin Hunter.
Wendy Williams: The Movie premieres on Lifetime on Jan. 30.

Immigration and Hispanics' Educational Attainment
In a previous macroblog post, Whitney Mancuso and I wrote about the improved labor market outcomes for workers with the least amount of formal education. We attributed this improvement mostly to a combination of a secular decline in the supply of these workers over time and a shift in the composition of the low-skilled workforce toward Hispanic immigrants—a group that has an especially high rate of workforce attachment.
In a related article by colleagues at the St. Louis Fed, Alexander Monge-Naranjo and Juan Ignacio Vizcaino explore how the employment characteristics of the Hispanic population have grown increasingly concentrated in low-skilled occupations over time, and they relate this to the relatively smaller gains in the average educational attainment of the Hispanic population.
The authors ask why the education level of Hispanics has lagged behind other groups and suggest that it could be a consequence of intergenerational persistence; it takes a while for the children of poorly educated immigrants to catch up with the rest of the population. This explanation is likely to play a role, especially when considering why a relatively smaller share of U.S.-born Hispanics go to college. The study also notes differences across gender, showing that Hispanic men are less likely than Hispanic women to continue their education after high school, and although the college rate has been rising for all Hispanics, it is growing faster for women.
I also want to note that a large share of the Hispanic population in the United States are foreign born, and these immigrants have a much lower average level of educational attainment than do U.S.-born Hispanics. This observation is evident in table 1, which is based on data on individuals aged 25-54 (prime age) from the Current Population Survey. For instance, in 2017, 57 percent of the U.S. prime-age Hispanic population was foreign born, and 21 percent of these prime-age foreign born Hispanics had a college degree (associate degree or higher). In contrast, 36 percent of U.S.-born prime-age Hispanics had a degree.
Table 1: Selected Characteristics of the U.S. Prime-age Population (percent)
Foreign born
Completed a college/associate degree
Non-Hispanic

Source: Current Population Survey, author's calculations
As the St. Louis Fed study concludes, a primary factor distinguishing the Hispanic workforce in the United States is their lower average level of educational attainment. Further distinguishing between foreign and U.S.-born Hispanics shows the role that immigration has played in holding down the average education level since a large fraction of Hispanic immigrants have less education.
The Hispanic/non-Hispanic college completion gap remains large and has not closed over time. However, there has been relative improvement in high school completion, as table 2 shows.
Completed 12th grade
Since 1997, the share of the prime-age foreign born Hispanic population who have finished 12th grade has increased by 15 percentage points. At the same time, the share of prime-age U.S.-born Hispanics completing high school has increased by 11 percentage points and is now not much lower than for non-Hispanics. While relatively low college attendance remains a major obstacle, greater high school completion is encouraging for Hispanics' future role in the workforce.

Questions (and some potential answers) on immigration and remittances
Immigration is a topic that raises many questions from both policymakers and the public, and researchers work to offer perspective. Some questions currently being posed are
Does immigration into the United States have a positive impact on native-born employment opportunities?
If remittance fees (that is, fees immigrants pay to send money home) are reduced, how much more money do migrants send home?
How does sponsorship of family members' immigration into the United States change immigration patterns?
Researchers discussed these questions and more at the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta's Americas Center research conference on Remittances and Immigration, held Nov. 5–6, 2010.
Unskilled immigrant labor and offshoring
Some highlights from the research presented at the conference include a paper by University of California, Davis professor Giovanni Peri that was recently profiled in the New York Times. Peri argues that unskilled immigrant labor helps prevent U.S. firms from relocating offshore.
The paper cites evidence indicating that less-educated immigrants are employed in jobs that require more manual and routine-intensive tasks and on average do not compete for jobs in which the bulk of native workers are employed. Those jobs tend to be more cognitive and nonroutine-intensive type of work. In other words, immigrants and low-skilled native workers are not substitutes but complements. In fact, unskilled immigrants compete more with offshore workers. The paper concludes that immigration generates cost-savings for U.S. firms and thus a corresponding increase in productivity, so immigration's aggregate effect on the level of low-skilled native employment in the United States is positive.
This finding is in contrast to research conducted by George Borjas of Harvard University, who also participated in the conference. His work suggests that rather than being complements, immigrants with similar skill levels tend to be substitutes for native workers.
Remittance fees
In 2008, immigrants sent $336 billion to their relatives in developing countries, and in many countries remittances are often greater than private capital flows and official development aid combined. Remittance flows also generate billions of dollars in fees.
Dean Yang, from the University of Michigan, quantifies the impact of money transfer fees on remittances flows. Using a unique field experiment among Salvadoran migrants in the Washington, D.C., area, migrants were randomly assigned discounts on remittance transactions fees. Surprisingly, minor reductions in remittance fees led to large increases in total transfers. For instance, a $1 reduction in transaction costs generated $25 more remitted dollars per person per month. This finding suggests that a reduction in transaction costs can lead to very sizable gains in recipient countries.
Sponsorship of family members
Although countries such as Canada and Australia prioritize the entry of young, skilled foreign workers, the U.S. immigration system strongly emphasizes family reunification, which is a method where naturalized immigrants can sponsor relatives (spouse, children, parents, and siblings) in their immigration to the United States. Sponsoring new immigrants means that migrants not only are a major source of remittances, but they can fundamentally shape the flow of immigration by assisting migration of their relatives.
Until now, researchers had limited data on sponsors' behavior. Using a new immigration survey, Yale University professor Mark Rosenzweig presented research that for the first time explores the role of sponsorship. He shared preliminary results showing that while immigrant children who are less educated tend to receive remittances from their relatives who have immigrated to the United States, children with more schooling are able to take better advantage of the U.S. job market and are the first ones to be sponsored.
Other papers included research aimed at quantifying the effect of female migration on children left behind, the impact of immigrants on the educational attainment on natives, the productivity gains from skilled migration into the United States, and the role of seasonal migration in mitigating famine in Bangladesh. All of the conference papers are available.

Housing starts, remittances and macroeconomic developments
Recent evidence collected by the Dallas Fed's Pia Orrenius suggests that apprehensions of undocumented workers attempting to cross the U.S.–Mexican border are a good predictor of the overall American job market. Simply put, if one wanted to predict job market conditions in July of a given year, one should examine immigrant apprehensions in January. Orrenius finds that more immigrants attempt to cross the border from Mexico (and more of them are caught doing so) when immigrants believe the U.S. economy would offer more jobs in the near future.
One area of the economy that relied heavily on immigrant labor was housing. The following chart plots monthly U.S. housing starts (lagged five months) and remittances to Mexico. (I use year-over-year growth rates and smooth the noise from very short-run fluctuations by using a three-month moving average in my analysis.) I use remittances as a proxy for migrant Mexican labor.
Figure: Housing Starts and Remittances to Mexico
Note: Remittances in U.S. dollars. Housing starts indicate new, privately owned housing units.

The correlation between the two data series is strikingly high. For instance, the plunge in housing starts that began in early 2006 was followed by a sizable drop in remittances growth five months later. Of course, the results are not unexpected as the construction industry heavily employs immigrant labor.
Also, it is well known that immigrants send remittances to their country of origin on a regular basis. Some estimates indicate that the remittances sent by immigrants from developing economies back home reached $305 billion in 2008. (As an aside, keep in mind that because of unrecorded immigration flows through formal and informal channels, the actual numbers are likely to be significantly larger.) Remittances are particularly important for smaller Latin American countries. In 2007, for instance, recorded remittances represented more than 10 percent of the gross domestic product in several Latin American countries, including Honduras (25 percent), Guyana (24 percent), El Salvador (16 percent), and the Dominican Republic (13 percent), among others.
What is especially remarkable from a macroeconomic perspective is the volatility of these capital flows. During the housing boom, remittances to Mexico were growing at 20–25 percent annual rates (see the chart). With the onset of the global economic crisis, however, remittances have been declining, falling by almost 10 percent early this year. For smaller emerging economies, the volatility in remittance flows becomes a significant extra source of instability.
Migrant workers enter the country in response to upturns in domestic labor demand, and that upturn results in higher remittances both because of the increased number of immigrants but also because the existing stock of immigrant workers is earning more. Conversely, a downturn in labor demand should be reflected in lower remittance flows because of out-migration as workers return home and because of lower earnings among the remaining stock of migrants. But what happens when some of those workers have entered the country illegally?
In a study published in 1997, Belinda Reyes found that about two-thirds of the undocumented immigrants returned to Mexico within three years upon arrival. In a recent paper I wrote with Andrei Zlate, we explore the implications of changes to enforcement policies for the U.S./Mexican border on undocumented labor and remittances. We find that increased border enforcement during the last decade has broken the typical pattern of flows of undocumented workers. Basically, while increased enforcement makes it harder/more expensive to enter the country, it also reduces the incentive for those already in the country to leave. Why? Because of the high cost/risk associated with reentering the United States in the future.
In a recent paper, Carolina Rodriguez-Zamora adds support to our claims. She finds that as the U.S. Department of Homeland Security increases the amount of resources spent policing the border undocumented immigrants tend to stay longer.
Increased enforcement protects the existing stock of undocumented immigrants from additional competition, and this development can put upward pressure on wages when U.S. labor demand is high. When labor demand is low, rather than returning home, these individuals could remain in local labor markets, placing additional downward pressure on wages.

The undocumented and business survival in the United States
Based on the severe economic contraction during the past six months, it is obvious why the topic of the economy receives so much attention as the economy directly weighs on the lives of citizens and businesses here and throughout the world. But the weight of the economy can have indirect effects as well, including potentially shifting attention from other policy issues.
For instance, a recent Bloomberg News article describes how economic troubles may affect potential immigration reform legislation.
"The long campaign to overhaul U.S. immigration laws may be derailed for yet another year—this time by the deteriorating economy."
The immigration debate is multifaceted, complex, and, at times, contentious. There are myriad issues to consider when entering into the immigration reform discussion, many of which are best left to the political process to decide. But, as the Bloomberg article describes, there is an important economic component to the immigration discussion. Economists can make a modest contribution to the debate by supplying unbiased research that touches on various aspects of the immigration question.
In that spirit, I offer up the results of research I've done with my colleagues, Julie Hotchkiss of the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta and David Brown of Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh. Our research looks into the potential impact of undocumented workers on firm survival and is based on confidential information from the state of Georgia, which between 2000 and 2008 experienced the fastest growth in the number of undocumented immigrants in the United States, according to the Department of Homeland Security.
In this research, we find that firms employing undocumented workers enjoy a competitive advantage over firms that do not employ undocumented workers. We also observe that firms engage in herding behavior, i.e., firms will employ undocumented workers if their competitors do. The herding behavior is a natural consequence of competitive pressure: Rival firms' undocumented workforce lowers a firms' survival probability, while a firm's own undocumented workforce strongly enhances that firm's survival prospects.
Our analysis suggests that cost savings enjoyed by firms employing undocumented workers is a result of paying these workers wages that are less than what is paid to comparable documented workers. Because the advantage of hiring undocumented workers is cost-related, herding behavior and competitive effects are weaker if firms have the option to shift labor-intensive production out of state or abroad.
Our findings have several implications relevant to the policy discussion. The most straightforward prediction would be that if immigration reform is successful in forcing firms to pay undocumented workers market wages, the competitive advantage of hiring these workers may disappear. As a consequence, the demand for undocumented workers might well dissipate.
In addition, reform efforts that reduced the supply of undocumented workers (e.g., through tougher border and worksite enforcement) would raise firms' production costs, which may have an impact on prices if firms pass through these additional costs to consumers. However, this last point is not a direct implication of our analysis.
One word of caution about this study: Our results are based on the payroll reports of employers. This study does not have information on the activities of undocumented workers that are not recorded on firms' official wage records.
There are, of course, many other aspects of immigration policy to be considered, and we are loath to characterize the results of our research as supporting any particular approach or conclusion. But we do hope it sheds some light on a debate that already has its fair share of heat.

AJ Galante: 'Remember the Trashers'
Posted By Vincent Juico on October 5, 2021
AJ Galante wouldn't change a thing if he had to do it all over again. Chat with Filipino journalists Vincent Juico and Brian Yalung.
by Vincent Juico
A then 17-year-old AJ Galante becoming the President and General Manager of his own hockey team. Something out of a Disney movie but it ain't no Disney film and AJ ain't no Disney character.
It's neither the fourth installment nor a reboot of Mighty Ducks. AJ Galante is a real person and his team's story is both unique and incredible. Galante is the breakout star of the Netflix sports documentary, "Untold: Crime and Penalties".
That AJ let his creative juices flow and was out of the box with the team is an understatement. We had a conversation with the former Trashers President and GM last weekend where he narrated how he signed up the players he signed up, the lessons and takeaways from the two seasons with the Trashers, the other gimmicks he should've tried, to create a "Family" atmosphere at the games.
The Trashers were a "physical" team and that's putting it mildly. They made the Philadelphia Flyers of the '70s and the Detroit Pistons Bad Boys of the late 80's look like choir boys.
Every game was like either a WWF match or an episode of UFC's "The Ultimate Fighter". I was surprised there were no extracurricular activities among the players during practices.
AJ wouldn't change a thing if he had to do it all over again. Would things have been different if he were a little bit older when he got the team? Maybe, but I guess we'll never know.
The Trashers got to the playoffs in the team's two years of existence, reaching the finals in their second and last year, losing to the Kalamazoo Wings. They would've won the title in their third season if it happened.
We brought up a few gimmick suggestions for Mr. Galante, one was to have one of the fans from section 102 lace 'em up then put on some Trasher threads then start a few fights once the puck falls on the ice.
Another one was to have WWF professional wrestler put on some skates and the uniform then away he goes with his hands landing on an opposing player's face.
A brilliant marketing and public relations ploy by the youthful former team executive was to hire Brent Gretzky. If the last name sounds familiar, it is because Brent is the brother of arguably the greatest NHL player ever, Wayne Gretzky. AJ never got to talk to the "Great One" but if working with his brother is the closest you'll ever get to an ice hockey icon, I'll take it.
These days, AJ manages and promotes his boxers, most of whom are contenders in their respective weight divisions. He's been in boxing since 2011, we obviously saw his passion, enthusiasm, and fervor for the sweet science and this writer doesn't see it wane anytime soon.
Before the interview, my impression and sense of the man was that he is street-smart and will work his hardest to where he wants to be in life. He won't let his kids get into boxing unless for either exercise or recreation but, he will allow them to take up the sport of hockey.
As proof of how passionate and down-to-earth this guy is about his sport and his Trashers then, even as President and GM, the former high school hockey player would wear those threads and put the skates on and start throwing punches to get things started.
If you're an opposing team then, the movie "Remember the Titans" would have a sequel and that would be, "Remember the Trashers", the bad boys of hockey.

UPDATE:
I have tested for gzip compression at
http://checkgzipcompression.com/
and gave me:

but in Chrome it shows:

A: The culprit was my anti-virus, I thought it was not because at first, I have disabled it and the response are still not gzipped. But when i tried in a newly installed VM with the same chrome version in my workspace, the response got gzipped, and when I installed the anti-virus on that VM, the response was not gzipped again.

A: Since gzip works fine on your server with other HTTP clients (curl,  http://checkgzipcompression.com) but not in Chrome, I would suspect Chrome to be the culprit, not your nginx configuration.

*

*Try other browsers (Firefox, IE, Opera etc.)?

*Try disabling all Chrome extensions (anything related to User-Agent, since you have gzip_disable "msie6" in your nginx conf)

2020-21 ITH Season Preview: Illinois Fighting Illini
Ryan Corazza
With the start of college basketball season slated for late November, we'll be taking a long look at the conference at large as well as Indiana's roster over the next month. Today, we preview Illinois.
During the 2018-2019 season, Indiana traveled to Champaign for a March 7 matchup against the Illini. The Hoosiers had recently lost 12 of 13 conference games, largely based on their opponents employing a similar defensive strategy: Pack the paint, sag off Indiana's perimeter players and dare them to shoot. In a season the Hoosiers ranked near the bottom of Division I basketball in 3-point shooting, it was an effective strategy to stymie Indiana's offense and keep their star freshman Romeo Langford and point guard Rob Phinisee from having proper space to operate.
But in his second year as the coach of Illinois, Brad Underwood was sticking to his program-building script. Despite its lack of success, Underwood continued to teach and implement an in-your-face pressure defense to try and create turnovers. Indiana, no longer being dared to shoot all game with a packed paint, capitalized in a big way, running ball screens to free Phinisee into an open middle of the court to make plays. The Hoosiers had their best offensive game of the season (1.39 points per possession) in their biggest conference road win of the year (92-74).
The Illini finished that 2018-2019 campaign with just a 12-21 record, its pressure defense ranked outside the top 100 (108th in adjusted defensive efficiency). It was also one of the most foul prone defenses in the country (338th in defensive foul rate) and allowed opponents to rebound 31.9 percent of its misses, which ranked Illinois 307th nationally in that category.
But after an offseason of self-reflection — and a look at the numbers with the help of some outside consultation from a Boston Celtics analytics staffer — Underwood decided change was necessary. Gone was the pressure defense that created too many fouls. In came a defense incorporating pack line principles. It also helped the Illini had sealed a commitment from Jamaican Kofi Cockburn, an intimidating, built, 7-footer who could block shots and clean up mistakes. And so Illinois' defensive numbers changed drastically in 2019-2020. Its defensive foul rate went from one of the worst (338th) to one of the best (20th) in the nation. While the Illini weren't turning opponents over or stealing the ball as much, their overall defensive profile improved, as they finished 35th in adjusted defensive efficiency in the nation with their conference-only defense ranking fourth in the Big Ten.
It was a transformation, coupled with the emergence of Ayo Dosunmu as a clutch offensive star, that completely turned around the trajectory of the Illini. After finishing 21-10 last season and a likely NCAA tournament team before the pandemic shut down the season, they're poised to be one of the better teams in the conference, if not the nation entering the 2020-2021 season.
Start here: Both Dosunmu and Cockburn are back this season after testing the NBA draft waters. Dosunmu isn't a lights out shooter (29 percent from 3-point range last season), but he time and again hit key buckets in the closing minutes of games last season to propel the Illini to victory. That included a dagger 3-pointer and some free throws to help beat Indiana 67-66 in Champaign on March 1. He's the best closer in the league. Cockburn's size makes him an absolute force down low. He draws fouls at a high rate and is a strong offensive rebounder and shot blocker, making him an asset on both sides of the floor.
Trent Frazier and Da'Monte Williams return for their senior seasons to provide a veteran presence. While Giorgi Bezhanishvili's sophomore season saw a dip in numbers after a surprising freshman campaign, he remains a versatile big man. Jacob Grandison sat out last season after transferring from Holy Cross, but has the ability to contribute to the team in a meaningful way.
Adam Miller and Andre Curbelo, two four-star freshman guards, can provide depth behind Frazier and Dosunmu in the backcourt. And guard Austin Hutcherson, who sat out last season after transferring from Division III Wesleyan, was a star at his previous stop who will likely be in the rotation.
Bottom Line: Illinois has arguably the best one-two punch in the league with Dosunmu and Cockburn. The Illini figure to not only challenge for a Big Ten championship, but are also poised to be one of the better teams in the country. While the Illini's defensive improvement was the story last season, its offense, though still solidly elite nationally (38th in adjusted offensive efficiency), might be the decider on how far this team goes. In conference play, the Illini finished just ninth in offensive efficiency namely because of shooting problems, as they finished 13th in effective field goal percentage (45.8) just ahead of cellar dweller Purdue (45.7). They were also the worst 2-point shooting team in league play and struggled to get to the line (13th in free throw rate). If Underwood, who in his only year at Oklahoma State coached the most efficient offense in the nation, can bring some of that spice to his emergent Illini team, a deep tournament run seems in play.
Quotable: "This is a once in a lifetime opportunity. A lot of people don't have the opportunity where they can contend for a national championship in their home state and do it in the way that my story was written from a team that went from the bottom of the Big Ten and helping attract in other great players to come and sacrifice their own talents to help the team win. It's something I have the opportunity to do, so I'm going to work as hard as I can — doubly as hard as I can — because I know we have the opportunity to and we have a target on our back." – Dosunmu earlier this fall.
