Eight Defendants Sentenced For Distribution of Methamphetamine In Operation Night Train
U.S. Attorney's Office, Northern District of Georgia
GAINESVILLE, Ga. – Eight defendants have been sentenced for conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine, possession with the intent to distribute methamphetamine, and money laundering as part of Operation Night Train, a long-term Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Forces (OCDETF) investigation in Gainesville, Georgia.
"Methamphetamine continues to plague our communities," said Acting U.S. Attorney Bobby L. Christine. "This prosecution demonstrates that our federal, state, and local partners remain committed to taking these dangerous drug dealers off of our streets. We are grateful to the many law enforcement agencies who partnered with us on these cases."
"Because of the results of this case our communities are safer and other drug traffickers in Georgia have been put on notice that we will not tolerate their efforts to spread these dangerous drugs," said Chris Hacker, Special Agent in Charge of FBI Atlanta. "They will face the combined force of our federal, state and local law enforcement partners."
"Georgians deserve to live in a safe and drug-free environment. We will continue to work diligently with all of our partners to investigate and dismantle drug trafficking organizations that threaten the safety of our communities," said Vic Reynolds, Director, Georgia Bureau of Investigation.

LeCheval Stable is a 501 c 3 non profit, licensed and insured facility. We provide an inclusive opportunity for individuals to explore the total equestrian experience. Riders ages 5 to adult learn basic standards and horsemanship skills necessary for safe riding.
Lessons are geared to the strengths and needs of the rider after an initial riding evaluation. During first phase lessons, riders will gain an understanding of overall safety and barn rules. They will actively participate in grooming, (un)tacking the horse, leading the horse, and working on the lunge line at a walk and trot. They will learn how to steer a straight, curved and zig zag line at the walk. Balancing at the walk and trot and beginning to post at the trot will ready riders for advancing skills.
As riders progress, they will move through levels commensurate with their demonstrated ability. The team will work with each rider to provide support, positive feedback and modify instruction as deemed necessary. Riding the horse using upward transitions (halt to walk to trot to canter) and downward transitions (canter to trot to walk to halt) will be a major focus for advanced beginners and early intermediate riders.
LeCheval Stable provides a working student program and hands on training for responsible individuals who may want to volunteer as sidewalkers, leaders, acquire barn management skills or gain a deeper understanding of how horses can enrich the lives of others.

5 Influencer Marketing Trends for 2023
Everything you need to know for 2023 and influencer marketing
2022 is soon coming to an end. So it's time to look into 2023 and see what's waiting for us. In this article we share 5 influencer marketing trends that will benefit you in the new year. Take notes and imply these trends in your strategy to make the most of your influencer marketing campaigns!
Continuous rise of video-based content
A completely new approach to sponsored content has emerged with the popularity of TikTok and Instagram Reels. Many creators now prefer to express themselves through the creation of enjoyable, easily consumable content in video format. Instagram is stimulating this with new features almost every week.
Brands are using both platforms to boost their campaigns by developing challenges and TikTok dances, for example, in addition to creators using Instagram Reels and TikTok to express themselves and reveal more details about their lives.
In 2023, TikTok will overtake other social media platforms in terms of total monthly active users (MAUs) and surpass Instagram as the most popular medium for influencer marketing. In contrast, TikTok will have the fastest rate of growth for influencer marketing in 2023. Lots of creators can of course still be found on Instagram. It provides a huge range of content formats, the majority of which support shoppable moments. Marketers will continue to spend money on Instagram thanks to features like Instagram shopping,
The rise of cross-channel campaigns
On average, social media user interacts with 6-7 different social mediaplatforms on a daily basis. Cross-channel campaigns are essential for marketers as the typical consumer uses multiple platforms on a daily basis.
Reaching a much larger audience is feasible by engaging in cross-channel cooperation. For instance, Instagram is used for socializing, finding inspiration, and receiving product suggestions, but TikTok is primarily used for fun. In other words, when working together on TikTok and Instagram, the final product might be published in a fun, creative way on TikTok, but in a more aesthetically pleasing and educational way on Instagram.
On the Influentials platform we therefore advice to split up your campaigns per social channel. This way you get the most out of each platform and creator!
Focusing on data and measuring ROI
The majority of marketers use email and direct messages to coordinate their influencer partnerships. But here's the issue: without real-time data and reporting, it's hard to tell if the partnership was effective or not.
The marketer should make sure that the influencers' audience aligns with the brand's target demographic before selecting them. One of the factors contributing to the rise in popularity of influencer marketing platforms is the fact that these platforms offer real-time audience demographics obtained directly from the social media platform.
On the Influentials platform you can access the real-time audience demographics from all creators in our network. Use our filters to explore the network to find the best creator for your brand and next campaign.
The rise of influencer-generated content
One of the creators special skills is content creation, which is why more and more firms are collaborating with creators to generate images for their social media channels.
We're not shocked that this trend, which began to pick up steam last year, is now increasing even more. First off, it assists brands in obtaining current, visually appealing material. Second, creators content has a much stronger sense of authenticity and relatability than content that has been professionally created, which results in more engagement. Thirdly, it is considerably less expensive than planning picture shoots on your own.
The forerunner businesses have already started employing in-house content producers to make material for digital platforms!
Focus on building influencer relationships
Like with other marketing strategies, more and more companies are using influencer marketing year-round, not only in the run-up to the major holidays.
Long-term influencer collaborations are something we always advocate for because they not only stand out on social media but also give the company greater results because they appear more reliable. Not to add that long-term partnerships require less of the marketers' time.
More brands are fighting for high-quality influencers as a result of the expansion of influencer marketing. It makes sense to make influencers into brand ambassadors once the company has identified them.
Brand ambassadors utilize the company's products on a regular basis and promote them both on and off of social media, taking influencer marketing to a whole new level. Therefore, there is so much more impact than with a single campaign. A single campaign is much harder to evaluate on what worked and what didn't. Seeing valuable and reliable results is only possible over time.

Why do family history? We will explore why people get interested in family history, discover the joy of finding some "skeletons" in the family closet, and learn about computer software and library resources. Along the way, we will learn about some of the more helpful resources for doing family history in northern Ind., including the Mennonite Historical Library in Goshen and the Allen County Public Library in Fort Wayne. A day trip to the ACPL for genealogical research is an optional add-on. Loren Johns has been personally involved in family history as a hobby for 18 years. His database contains over 625,000 names, mostly Mennonite and Amish, which is the second largest in the Swiss Anabaptist Genealogical Association, of which he is the secretary.

would force her gracious head to bow?
The sap built back to make her strong.
and she gathered courage once again.
The orchid survived as the dinosaurs failed.
The orchid grew noble as species paled.
The orchid led and others trailed.
She nurtured, and gave them special care.
She understood their deep despair.

Which Cameroonian Artiste Is Next In Line To Fill Up PAPOSY In 2019?
The 5600 seating capacity multipurpose sports complex situated in the heart of the capital city is one of the most challenging venues whereby Cameroonian artistes organize their concerts in the country. Filling up the Paposy by a Cameroonian artiste was a myth until the 26th Of June 2018 which happens to be the "Independence Day Of Urban Music In Cameroon" this date was and independence was proclaimed by Zone2Rap frontline artiste Maahlox Le Vibeur after the Cameroonian rapper filled up the complex in a show he headlined. Thereafter, Universal Music Africa and Cameroonian rapper Tenor stepped up on the 18th of August 2018 to also prove to the African continent and world at large that Cameroonian artistes are also capable of pulling out over 5600 people in their country for their own shows.
Empire Company's most successful singer Magasco took the challenge as the first English Speaking Cameroonian Urban artiste to headline a show at the multipurpose sports complex on the 22nd of December 2018. The Bamenda boy amongst other Cameroonian and international artistes graced the show with so much love and energy giving it the grandeur it deserved.
The year 2018 saw three talented superstars take the bull by the horns as they challenged not only their fears but that of their fans and critics by not only pulling out a massive crowd but also giving the fans a show!
The $60.000 question by the fans to the public and their favorite entertainers is, who is going to be the first and next Cameroonian artistes to headline a show at the Paposy or take a bigger step by going for the Yaoundé Omnisports Stadium, the Limbe stadium of the stade Mbappe Leppe in Douala. While most of the fans got their fingers pointing at Cameroon's fastest rapper Ko-C others have better suggestions and different choices.
What are your thoughts? Drop them in the comment section let's discuss!
No two people can fill the stadiums if not for Daphne. Daphne can fill anywhere and everywhere she wants.

Scientific activity and knowledge creation has a long history in Iran and the Academy of Gundishapur was established in the 3 rd century Anno Domini (AD) under the rule of Sassanidkings. It was an important medical center of the 6 th and 7 th centuries AD. [1] Well-known scientists came from Iran, e.g., Avicenna. His most famous works are The Book of Healing, a vast philosophical and scientific encyclopedia, and The Canon of Medicine, which was a standard medical text at many medieval universities. The Canon of Medicine was used as a text-book in the universities of Montpellier and Leuvenas late as 1650. [2]
Nevertheless, recent rapid scientific growth in Iran has been analyzed in the most prestigious scientific publications. [3],[4],[5],[6],[7],[8],[9] In August 2009, Iran announced a "comprehensive plan for science" focused on higher education and stronger links between industry and academia. The establishment of a US $2.5 million center for nanotechnology research is one of the products of this plan. Other commitments include, boosting R&D investment to 4% of gross domestic product (GDP) (0.59% of GDP in 2006), and increasing education to 7% of GDP by 2030 (5.49% of GDP in 2007). [7]
Iran's scientific output rose 18-fold between 1996 and 2008, from 736 published papers to 13,238. [6] Scientific output has grown 11 times faster in Iran than the world average, faster than any other country. A survey of the number of scientific publications listed in the Web of Science database shows that growth in the Middle-East, mostly in Turkey and Iran, is nearly four times faster than the world average. [5] In addition, [Figure 1] shows number of published Iranian articles according to SCImago journal and country rank. This portal gets data from Scopus® database from 1996. [9]
Figure 1: Number of published Iranian articles according to SCImago journal & country rank
The countries showing the fastest rate of growth in publication output and those rising up the global league s as collaborative hubs show strong trends of growth in mobile phone usage and ininternet penetration. Internet growth in Iran, for example, has grown 13,000% since the turn of the century (albeit from a starting point of only 250,000 users). Internet use in China has grown over 1,800% in the same period (from 22.5 million users to 420 million) and in Tunisia, penetration has grown 3,600% (from 100,000 users to 3.6 million). [7]
Of more interest, despite political tensions between the USA and Iran, scientific collaboration has proven surprisingly resilient. Between the periods 1996-2002 to 2004-2008, co-authored papers between these two countries increased from just 388 papers to 1,831 papers, an increase of 472%. [7]
In an article titled "365 days: 2011 in review" [3] Nature journal of science has rounded up major economic and political situations including, the shut down of Shuttle program, the particle collider, the world's best selling drug, rolling out of cheap vaccines in Africa, the triple trauma of Japan, tsunami, earthquake, and financial cuts, which all shaped and affected science in the year 2011. In its analysis of the published articles in the first 10 months of 2011, Nature compared 40 top countries in this respect. Europe has allocated 38.4% of the share to itself, while North and South America have published 29.5%, Asian-Pacific courtiers 27.8% and Middle-Eastern and African countries gained 4.4% of the papers. [3],[10] By producing 22.7% of the articles, the United States has the first rank while China has published 10.4% to be the second country while in the Middle-East Turkey has the first place and Iran is the second by producing 1.3% of the whole papers. By this rate of production, Iran has gained the 20 th place in the world. If the GDP per capita and paper per population were to be included as the other criteria for the calculations smaller European countries would take the top ranks instead. [3],[10]
By a 20% increase in the number of published articles compared to 2010, Iran has gained the first rank, China the second rank by 15%, and South-Korea and India third and fourth positions by more than 10%, respectively, and Spain fifth by nearly 10% [Figure 2]. [3],[10]
Figure 2: Top growing countries in area of knowledge creation evaluated by percentage increase in the number of published articles compared to 2010 (Diagram courtesy of Nature)
This fact may surprise many people, especially, in the western nations used to leading science.
Yet, it is not so surprising when compared with other rapidly industrializing countries. Science-Metrix, a data-analysis company in Montreal, Canada, has showed "geopolitical shifts in knowledge creation" since 1980. [8] A rapid rise in Middle-Eastern, Chinese, Indian, and Brazilian science stands out from a report published by the UK's Royal Society, comparing global publication and citation rates between 1993 and 2003 with those between 2004 and 2008. Similar to Iran, other, smaller players are also stepping up their research movement. Turkey, for example, quadrupled its output between 1996 and 2008, after increasing six-fold its funding for R&D. Similar trends emerged in Tunisia, Singapore, and Qatar. [6],[8]
Overall scientific growth in Middle-East has been rapid (nearly four time faster than at the world level), with Iran and Turkey leading the pick, increase 11 and 5.5 times faster, respectively, than output at the world level from 1980-1994 and 1995-2009. [8] In particular, Iran embarked on of the fastest build-up of scientific capabilitiesthe world witnessed during last two decades. [8] Considering the above mentioned data, it seems logic to hypothesize that scientific excellence can re-emerge in Iran [4] and the House of Wisdom [11] will raise again, as Quantum Physicist Jim Al-Khalili has stated.

Tom Sharpe, né à Londres le  et mort le  à Palafrugell en Espagne est un écrivain satirique britannique. Depuis son roman Wilt (1976), il est reconnu comme l'un des plus grands humoristes anglais de son époque. Il a reçu le Grand prix de l'humour noir en 1986, pour l'ensemble de son œuvre. Ses romans ont été traduits en de nombreuses langues (principalement en français).

Biographie
Son père était un pasteur unitarien rigide, qui officiait à Croydon et dont Sharpe n'aime évoquer ni le souvenir, ni les sympathies d'extrême droite. Il lit beaucoup, mais n'ayant pas l'autorisation de lire des bandes dessinées, ni même des livres pour la jeunesse, il se plonge dans Walter Scott, Melville et Robert Graves. Il rêve de devenir poète.
Après des études secondaires dans une école privée, Lancing College, il entre à l'université de Cambridge comme résident de Pembroke College ; il fait son service militaire dans les fusiliers marins où il côtoie des jeunes britanniques de milieux défavorisés, ce qui élargit considérablement son vocabulaire et selon lui, le « purge » de tout snobisme. En 1951, il décide de s'installer en Afrique du Sud d'où sa mère est originaire.

Il travaille dans le township de Soweto où son travail consiste à sortir les malades en phase terminale de l'hôpital pour les ramener mourir chez eux (il donne sa démission en 1952). Effaré par ce qu'il observe autour de lui (il compare Soweto aux camps de concentration nazis), écœuré par les remarques racistes qu'il entend proférer dans les milieux blancs, il achète une caméra et commence à collectionner les images sur la vie quotidienne des populations noires d'Afrique du Sud. Il écrit des pièces de théâtre contre l'apartheid qui sont censurées en Afrique du Sud. Une seule, South Africa, est jouée à Londres mais fait un « four ». Il enseigne dans la province du Natal. En 1957, il ouvre un studio photographique mais il est expulsé d'Afrique du Sud en 1961 pour sa prise de position contre le régime de l'apartheid. Lorsqu'il fait plus tard une demande de visa pour les États-Unis, il découvre que les services secrets l'ont étiqueté « communiste ». Le côté à la fois tragique et ubuesque de ce séjour en Afrique du Sud lui inspire deux romans : Mêlée ouverte au Zoulouland et Outrage public à la pudeur. Les romans connaissent un grand succès. L'écrivain Stephen King note alors que Sharpe a un fond sombre qui le place dans la grande tradition des satiristes anglais.

De 1963 à 1972, il donne des cours d'histoire dans un institut technique, le College of Art and Technology du Cambridgeshire. Cette expérience lui inspire une série de quatre romans dont le héros, Henry Wilt, apparaît tout d'abord comme maître auxiliaire dans l'enseignement technique. Tom Sharpe s'était installé en Catalogne.

Son œuvre

Thèmes
Dans des œuvres au style percutant et iconoclaste, Tom Sharpe propose une critique violente de la société sud-africaine de l'apartheid (Mêlée ouverte au Zoulouland, Outrage public à la pudeur), et du Royaume-Uni thatcherien puis blairien, en visant tout particulièrement le snobisme anglais (Quelle famille !), les extrémistes politiques de tous bords, la bureaucratie, le monde littéraire (La Grande poursuite), l'institution enseignante (la série Wilt, Le Cru de la Comtesse), les banquiers de la City (Fumiers et Cie), la police (Fumiers et Cie), le système de santé public et la guerre en Irak (Wilt in Nowhere, 2004) et la bêtise en général. Sharpe parodie souvent la langue et le style de certains auteurs communément associés au groupe social qu'il tourne en ridicule. Il aime placer ses personnages dans des situations abracadabrantes, à base de quiproquos, sans aucun souci de vraisemblance.

L'humour féroce de Tom Sharpe incite certains critiques à le comparer à des humoristes britanniques tels que P.G. Wodehouse et d'Evelyn Waugh, quoique Sharpe aime à préciser : « Waugh et Wodehouse maniaient la rapière, moi je travaille au coupe-coupe ».

Les romans
 Mêlée ouverte au Zoulouland et Outrage public à la pudeur sont deux romans situés en Afrique du Sud. Tom Sharpe dépeint des personnages profondément racistes et conservateurs. L'opposition entre Anglais, snobs et grotesques, et Afrikaners, stupides et violents, est au cœur de l'intrigue, l'apartheid servant de toile de fond.

 Dans Quelle famille, un lord milliardaire et pervers déteste sa famille : ses deux fils, un général de brigade en retraite, un juge qui ignore le mot "innocent", une vieille fille arrogante et rusée.

 Avec La route sanglante du jardinier Blott, Sharpe mêle complot immobilier véreux et mœurs sexuelles diverses et débridées, pour aboutir implacablement à un final des plus explosifs.

 Porterhouse est un vénérable collège de Cambridge, à l'usage de la gentry, qui compense la faiblesse de son enseignement par des diplômes monnayables. Un nouveau principal parachuté par Londres décide de mettre un peu d'ordre. Dans Panique à Porterhouse, une pléthore de personnages loufoques et affublés des pires tares provoque des intrigues et des imbroglios qui mêlent chantage, vengeance, kidnapping, tentative d'assassinat et autres péripéties...

 Dans Fumiers et Cie, Timothy Bright, Golden Boy inepte, licencié à la suite de la crise boursière de 1990, se retrouve abandonné de tous. Sous la menace, il accepte de servir de courrier à une organisation criminelle qui veut se venger de son oncle, un juge particulièrement sévère. Mais, à la suite d'un concours de circonstances, il perd l'argent et la drogue dont il est chargé et se trouve instrumentalisé dans le conflit qui oppose une vieille fille redoutable, Miss Midden, au chef corrompu de la police d'un comté anglais.

 Dans Wilt 1 : comment se sortir d'une poupée gonflable et de beaucoup d'autres ennuis encore, Wilt, la quarantaine, désenchanté par son métier de professeur, marié depuis trop longtemps à une femme frustrée, cherche le moyen de se débarrasser d'elle. Mais l'arrivée d'une riche voisine, adepte des jeux du sexe, va plonger la famille Wilt dans une kyrielle d'événements des plus inattendus. Dans Comment se débarrasser d'un crocodile, de terroristes et d'une jeune fille au pair, Wilt est maintenant directeur de la culture générale dans sa faculté. Sans autorité réelle, il affronte les fantasmes de quelques extrémistes politiques alors qu'il héberge une jeune fille au pair qui s'avère être une terroriste.

Postérité
Selon Robert McCrum, des humoristes comme Howard Jacobson ou  témoignent de l'influence de Tom Sharpe.

ED plans to seize properties of Winsome Diamonds
In case of Winsome Diamonds, the ED has also written to foreign countries asking for co-operation in probing the case said ED sources.
Written by Khushboo Narayan | Mumbai | Updated: July 15, 2015 3:20:32 am
The enforcement directorate (ED) is planning to issue an attachment order to seize the properties of Winsome Diamonds and Jewellery Ltd., one of the country's biggest bank loan defaulters —which owes over Rs 65,00 crore to 14 public and private banks, according to two officials privy to the development.
"We are in the final stages of preparing the attachment order pertaining to some of the assets of Winsome Diamond and Jewellery worth around Rs 200 crore. The properties proposed for attachment mostly include collateral kept with the banks," said an official who did not want to be named. "We have had informal discussions with the ED on this but we have not received any official communication so far," said a senior official of Winsome Diamonds. The banks which have an exposure to Winsome Diamonds include Punjab National Bank, Standard Chartered, State Bank of Mauritius Ltd, Export-Import Bank of India and Canara Bank, Axis Bank Ltd among others.
Emails and phone calls made to Winsome Diamonds did not elicit any response.
[related-post]
The ED order on Winsome Diamonds comes four months after the Prime Minister's office (PMO) sent a letter to the enforcement agency asking it to submit an action taken report on certain bank defaulters including Winsome Diamonds.
Apart from Winsome Diamonds, the letter dated February 25, sent by the PMO directed the ED to submit its report on eight top bank loan defaulters and Shivraj Puri, the alleged mastermind of a Rs.400 crore fraud on Citibank. The Indian Express has reviewed a copy of the letter.
The loan defaulters mentioned in the letter include Zoom Developers Pvt Ltd, Tiwari Group of Companies, Surya Vinayak Industries Ltd, Deccan Chronicle Holdings Ltd, First Leasing Co of India Ltd, Biotor Industries Ltd, Surya Pharma Pvt Ltd, and Prime Impex Ltd. All these companies are under the scanner of multiple investigating agencies in the country. Some of these companies have even been classified as wilful defaulters by banks. Collectively these companies owe over Rs 16000 crore to banks. Earlier on July 3 , ED issued an order for attachment of a 1208 acre property of Zoom Developers worth Rs 1,000 crore in Soledad, California in connection with a case registered against the company under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).
In case of Winsome Diamonds, the ED has also written to foreign countries asking for co-operation in probing the case said ED sources. "A substantial amount of money siphoned off by Winsome Diamonds have come back to India in the form of certain investments," said an official. He declined to divulge the nature of these investments.
Punjab National Bank, the lead banker of the consortium has also filed cases against Winsome Diamond for recovery of Rs 900 crore and Forever Precious Jewellery and Diamonds Ltd which has defaulted Rs 747 crore. In both the cases, Jatin Mehta is the key promoter director.

Pushing Out the Boundaries of Humanitarian Screening with In-Country and Offshore Processing
Recent surges in the arrival of unauthorized migrants with possible humanitarian claims have prompted the United States and the European Union to consider in-country and offshore processing for some refugee and asylum applications. As this article explores, some of the questions raised about the feasibility of such programs include their consistency with humanitarian law and their effectiveness in reducing unwanted entries.
Turkey's Evolving Migration Identity
Turkey's migration identity has shifted from being principally a country of emigration and transit to becoming a destination for immigrants and people fleeing conflict. In response, Turkish policymakers recently enacted a comprehensive migration and asylum law that took effect in April 2014. This article examines the new law, which is intended as a significant step toward managing both legal and irregular migration to Turkey, including humanitarian migration.

The humanitarian crisis unfolding in the Central African Republic (CAR) has received scant world attention, even as more than 20 percent of the population of 4.25 million has been displaced as a result of deadly sectarian violence. This article examines the causes of the violence, the international community response, and the impacts of large-scale displacement within the country and beyond its borders.
Dramatic Surge in the Arrival of Unaccompanied Children Has Deep Roots and No Simple Solutions
The phenomenon of unaccompanied children arriving at the U.S.-Mexico border, typically after an arduous and often dangerous journey through Central America and Mexico, has reached a crisis proportion, with a 90 percent spike in arrivals from last year and predictions of future increases ahead.
Refugees and Asylees in the United States
In 2012, the United States granted humanitarian protection to more than 87,000 people, with grants of asylum up 19 percent and refugee admissions up 3 percent from a year earlier. This article provides a detailed look at the most recent refugee and asylum data in the United States, including country of origin, top states of settlement, and more.
The Houston metro area, home to 1.6 million immigrants, is diverse and rapidly growing. This report sketches the area's immigrant population, examining top origin countries, key socioeconomic measures, and more. It also explores how Hurricane Harvey affected the immigrant population, and how national policy changes under the Trump administration are being felt locally, including by DACA recipients and asylum seekers.
Indonesia, which has a long history as a major origin for migrant labor in the Asia-Pacific and beyond, more recently has reluctantly found itself a transit and destination country, including for asylum seekers. Still, policymakers remain focused on protection of its nationals abroad rather than on assuring the status of Chinese and other foreigners in the country. This country profile explores Indonesia's rich migration history.
El Salvador is the smallest country in Central America yet the most densely populated. A stagnant economy, high levels of crime and violence, and natural disasters have pushed growing numbers of people to migrate without authorization or seek asylum abroad, mostly in the United States. This article explores historical and contemporary emigration from El Salvador.
EU policy debates about moving asylum seekers from overburdened frontline countries, such as Greece and Italy, to other Member States rarely consider how migrants form and act on preferences for certain destinations—and how difficult it may be to change these views. This issue brief explores decision-making among migrants in Greece, including how living conditions, jobs, and legal status factor in.
From being a source of labor emigration to the Gulf region to a destination for refugees from Syria, sub-Saharan Africa, and elsewhere, Egypt has long experienced different forms of mobility. This article, which profiles the trends and policies that have shaped Egypt's migration history, focuses on its long-standing use of migration as a soft-power tool to achieve its foreign policy aims and as a safety valve for political discontent.
President Trump has made reshaping the U.S. immigration system a top priority. Yet the fragmented nature of policy-making in the United States—with power split between branches and levels of government—has made it difficult to pursue some of his most ambitious proposals. This report explores the evolution of migration policy under Trump, and what these changes may mean in the long run.
The deepening of Venezuela's social, economic, and political implosion has resulted in the fastest movement of people across borders in Latin American history. Neighboring countries have responded with a patchwork of policy measures, though the scale and growing diversity of Venezuelan arrivals have challenged regional actors, as this article explores.
European countries have ramped up their investments in helping refugees find work and integrate into society. Yet little hard evidence exists of what programs and policies work best. This report proposes a new framework for thinking smartly about integration programming, using cost-benefit analysis to look beyond short-term, economic outcomes to also measure indirect benefits through a social-value concept.

Q: Communication between two child Lightning Components What is the best way to communicate between two child Lightning components using events?
For example if I have one parent CMP_MAIN and two child components CMP_1 and CMP_2. I want to send parameter from CMP_1 to CMP_2. What is best way to do that?

A: This is done through an application event, which means that every component involved needs to do something to coordinate their efforts.
Event
The event needs to be defined with whatever properties you want:
<aura:event type="APPLICATION">
    <!-- include aura:attribute elements here -->
</aura:event>

Source Component
The source component needs to register its ability to fire these events:
<aura:component>
    <aura:registerEvent name="localName" event="c:appEvent" />
</aura:component>

In the controller, you can fire these events:
fireEvent: function(component, event, helper) {
    var event = $A.get("e.c:appEvent");
    event.setParams( { } ); // Set your attributes
    event.fire();
}

Destination Component
The destination needs to register a handler to handle these events.
<aura:component>
    <aura:handler event="c:appEvent" action="{!c.handleAppEvent}" />

Container Component
The container should also handle the event. This prevents components outside your component hierarchy from getting the event (e.g. you have multiple copies of your components on a page).
<aura:component>
    <aura:handler event="c:appEvent" action="{!c.containEvent}" />
    <c:CMP_1 />
    <c:CMP_2 />
</aura:component>

The containEvent method should stop propagation:
containEvent: function(component, event, helper) {
    event.stopPropagation();
}

This can be a major performance boost if there are many copies of your component within an app, Lightning page, etc. If you have no container event, this allows the source to communicate with the destination even if they are not in the same component hierarchy at all.

A: Since the two components CMP_1,CMP_2 belongs to the same level in the containment hierarchy, you need to use Application event for the inter component communication.
The link over here discusses the same usecase and I believe this will help you out.

The Rockefeller University, founded by John D. Rockefeller Sr. in 1901 (as the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research) and the home over the past century to two dozen Nobel Prize winners, hosted its inaugural Parents & Science "Celebrating Science" benefit on February 13. The event, underwritten by David and Julia Koch, included a talk by the pediatric endocrinologist Dr. Robert Lustig about the dangers of sugar in processed food. Notable guests included Kate and Andy Spade, Rosanna Scotto, and Celerie Kemble and Boykin Curry, who together helped raise $1.1 million, a windfall that will help fund a new Center for Research on Child and Adolescent Health and continue the University's educational outreach to students and teachers in New York City.

Q: AWS CloudFormation template I am trying to understand the below policy
 Policies:
    - PolicyName: InstanceIAMPolicy
      PolicyDocument:
        Version: 2012-10-17
        Statement:
          - Effect: Allow
            Action:

              - 'ssm:UpdateInstanceAssociationStatus'
              - 'ssm:UpdateInstanceInformation'
            Resource: '*'
            Effect: Allow
            Action:
              - 'ec2messages:AcknowledgeMessage'
              - 'ec2messages:FailMessage'
              - 'ec2messages:GetEndpoint'
              - 'ec2messages:GetMessages'
              - 'ec2messages:SendReply'
            Resource: '*'

My question is related to resource parameter mentioned as *. Does that mean that the actions can be performed on any resource within your AWS infrastructure ? I am really new to CloudFormation templates and AWS. Thanks for your help.

A: The short answer is YES.
In your template you have two sections under Statements. Each section is defining "allow" actions. For each section you are "allowing" the APIs for ALL RESOURCES. The first section is for SSM and the second is for SSM EC2Messages.
Note: based upon the allow actions, you can merge those two sections together.
This link will help you with CloudFormation Templates:
Working with AWS CloudFormation Templates

A: The CloudFormation template in your question is creating an IAM policy. Your question is really about how wildcards work in IAM policies. The * wildcard in an IAM policy Resource element means that something with this IAM policy applied to it can perform the listed actions against any resource in your AWS account.
The policy appears to be a policy you would apply to an EC2 instance profile to allow the AWS SSM agent to perform any SSM tasks on that EC2 instance. Since thee resource is specifie as the * wildcard then the SSM agent could, for example, download any SSM document you send it (ssm:GetDocument). This basically allows the SSM agent to work correctly on the EC2 instance, without requiring you to grant it specific access to each thing you need it to do, every time you trigger it in the future.

Ray's Musings
Mostly Music Mixed With Miscellaneous Mayhem
Mindless Rant or Intelligent Commentary
Wha' Happ'ned???
Uh, #WOW and Oh Em Gee. Like Katy Perry, I didn't see that coming.
Wade and Madison (in particular) have consistently been the bottom vote-getters when there were even more Idolists in the competition. What changed that suddenly put early darlings Laci Kaye and Jeremiah into the bottom with only six left?[1] This put the judges in a real bind of having to decide which one of two season-long faves to use their one save on. Welcome back, Laci Kaye. Farewell, Jeremiah. For the record, I agree with their choice while agreeing with anybody who thinks they were clearly the wrong Bottom Two.
I'm really confused.
Anyway, I got asked an interesting question via text from a friend – "Who is your favorite?" It took me a while to realize that I don't have a favorite this season.[2] In past seasons I've had clear favorites like Crystal Bowersox, Jax, and La'Porsha Renae even if I didn't think they would win. In other years I've had clear faves that I thought should win like Adam Lambert and Lauren Alaina. But this year I haven't viewed any of the Idolists from the standpoint of being my favorite.
So beyond telling my friend that I didn't have a favorite, I explained that the remaining Idolists are all talented in some ways and flawed in others. With that in mind, here is how I see each of them at this point with most of the season behind us.
Madison – She has a big Kelly Clarkson-like voice at such a young age. But she hasn't learned how to connect with her songs emotionally and sell those emotions in her performances. And while there is a lot of potential there for her to grow in those areas, the pop music market isn't currently demanding new stand-and-deliver type singers (which may have been Jeremiah's problem).
Laine – There's really nothing wrong with Laine. He's fine. He's good. He's OK. But in terms of branding, these are the worst things to be. There is a consistent sameness to all that he does and he consistently does nothing that elevates him beyond, fine, good and OK – and be a star.
Wade – What Madison needs to learn, Wade has in spades – the ability to connect to and sell a song. Unfortunately, while his gritty voice has flavor, it also has so little nuance in it, the range of emotions he can express is diminished. He can take you a little bit high and a little bit low but that's it and so it's hard for him to keep my attention.
Laci Kaye – For me, she has the most interesting and compelling voice in the competition. She's able to put her own stamp on non-country songs such as Blink-182's I Miss You and I Want You to Want Me by Cheap Trick. Many times this season she earned the Bobby Bones Seal of Twitter Approval. For these reasons, I thought she could win. But she's also lacked consistency. Tonight was a case in point: a dull To Love Somebody (Janis Joplin) followed by a much better than expected with some really, sweet moments Open Arms (Journey). She also hasn't figured out how to move on stage which can make her dull vocal performances even more dull.
Alejandro – He is far and away the most musically talented person in this competition. Alejandro hears music different than the rest of us and can put whatever he's hearing into songs. His goth-meets-Nine Inch Nails performance tonight of Jefferson Airplane's Somebody to Love was utterly and singularly brilliant. His exquisite guitar playing is stunning. Artists such as Stevie Nicks and Ben Harper are in awe of him. But by Alejandro's own admission, "I'm still learning how to sing." That's obvious and I find the gap between his singing ability with the rest of his musicality hard to bridge.
Based on tonight's voting results, I am totally confounded as to how this season is going turn out much less who is going to win – as if winning matters. Last year's third-place finisher Gabby Barrett performed tonight and is another of many Idol examples of non-winners getting record contracts. But since there is going to be a winner, I'm with Katy – let's pick the least traditional winner possible – Alejandro.
[1] I'd really like to insert something funny here about vote hacking and election meddling but it might be too controversial. Oh, I just did, didn't I?
[2] For her part, My Daughter Cassandra knew I didn't have a favorite and that I really hadn't realized it yet.

This post is real and this post is vulnerable. Beware – parts of my soul and my crazy heart and head are on full display. So here goes.
I have a hate-hate relationship with fear. I have my whole life. Fear is something that haunts me all the time. It's definitely a struggle of mine. It touches every aspect of my life – from what I look like on the outside to how I feel on the inside. I fear what others will think of me or say if I do this, or what will happen if I make this decision. It's the constant second-guessing, insecure voice in my head always doubting me. It's heightened because I'm a people-pleaser. I would rather please others and do what they want me to do than make myself happy. Sometimes this is a good thing and causes me to be selfless in situations where it's needed, but in others it clouds my judgment and I can no longer see the decision at hand but only what others will think or say. And fear is not from God. No. He does not want us to fear others or our circumstances but instead trust in Him for all things. But mostly, I choose fear.
I feel like a lot of big stuff is going on right now in so many of my loved ones' lives – big decisions to be made and big news to share. Life has been a bit crazy for me too. Between best friends getting married, bachelorette parties (I'm leaving today for Charleston yay), family cookouts, prepping for work, and the fact that I've been an emotional basket case lately, fear has seemed to creep in to most parts of my life. Fear of not being good enough, fear of losing something or someone I love, fear of what others may think of a decision, fear of God deserting me even. I lie awake at night sometimes and my head imagines the craziest and saddest possible situations. Ugh. It's disturbing really. When I put it on paper it makes me laugh, cry and feel kinda embarrassed. It's real and it's honest though. And it's this fear that keeps me from enjoying all life has to offer. It keeps me from relishing in the pure joy of an event or a blessing. But it's those times when I have no choice but to cling to the promise that He will never leave us. I know that fear has no place in my heart. I know that I am fearfully and wonderfully made and God does not bless us, and then leave us. And I know that God does not give us more than we can handle. No. He stands beside us and He gives us the desires of our heart. But why in the everyday musings of life, is it so hard for me to believe that? I mean truly believe that. Well, I'm flawed and a mess for sure. But that will never change.
So today, I choose faith over fear. I choose to let go of my control-freak nature and stop worrying about what everyone else is thinking. Despite my disaster-like heart and crazy mind, God has chosen to bless me and put me in situations that are happy. So I will be happy. I will not let fear claim my happiness. And when there are times of sadness and anger, I hope I choose faith then too.
So, God, please keep working on me.
I'm still a mess and always will be.
Change my heart and don't let go.
I am an extremely fearful, anxiety-ridden person. I can relate to every bit of this post. It's something I pray about and try to work on daily. In His time things will work out as long as we keep our eyes on Him!
I'm in tears Nise. "I know that fear has no place in my heart. I know that I am fearfully and wonderfully made and God does not bless us, and then leave us." Wow. He certainly doesn't. Like Mere said, we can all relate to this. Love you (and your vulnerable spirit!) so, so much.
I am newish reader to your blog but I just wanted to tell you that I am right there with you girl! I think it will be ok and your right God is right there with us and he won't let us fail!
I'm the very same way! Like you, I just pray that God fills me with faith instead of fear, so I can live my life as He wants me to.
I absolutely love this! It is so easy to get caught up in the fear, especially when you are a people pleaser. But you are exactly right.....we have faith to drown out that fear, and we have to listen to the faith to live the life that God has called us to!
oh MY gosh that photo is absolutely ADORABLE!!!

Q: C++: odd behavior with reinterpret_cast I have the following snippet
#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

class foobar
{
    public:
    unsigned int a = 97;
    unsigned int b = 98;
    unsigned int c = 99;
};

class barfoo
{
    public:
    char a:32,b:32,c;

};

int main(){
    foobar * f = new foobar();
    barfoo * b = (reinterpret_cast<barfoo *>(f));
    cout << b->a << "-" << b->b << "-" << b->c;

}

Output:
a-b-c

However, if I specify the width of c in barfoo, it doesn't work (all the values are 0). Observe
#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

class foobar
{
    public:
    unsigned int a = 97;
    unsigned int b = 98;
    unsigned int c = 99;
};

class barfoo
{
    public:
    char a:32,b:32,c:32;

};

int main(){
    foobar * f = new foobar();
    barfoo * b = (reinterpret_cast<barfoo *>(f));
    cout << b->a << "-" << b->b << "-" << b->c;

}

Output:
--

The chars are all 0
Any idea why this is happening?
Link to ideone first snippet -- working
Linke to ideone second snippet -- not working
Compiler is gcc-5.1
Thanks!!

A: This reinterpret_cast does not meet the requirements for defined behavior, so while the assignment of it's result is acceptable any subsequent access of b is undefined behavior:
barfoo * b = (reinterpret_cast<barfoo *>(f));

A reinterpret_cast must meet one of these conditions, where the foobar is the DynamicType and barfoo is the AliasedType:

*

*AliasedType is (possibly cv-qualified) DynamicType

*AliasedType and DynamicType are both (possibly multi-level, possibly cv-qualified at each level) pointers to the same type T

*AliasedType is the (possibly cv-qualified) signed or unsigned variant of DynamicType

*AliasedType is an aggregate type or a union type which holds one of the aforementioned types as an element or non-static member (including, recursively, elements of subaggregates and non-static data members of the contained unions): this makes it safe to obtain a usable pointer to a struct or union given a pointer to its non-static member or element.

*AliasedType is a (possibly cv-qualified) base class of DynamicType

*AliasedType is char or unsigned char: this permits examination of the object representation of any object as an array of unsigned char.

Since the AliasedType does not fall into any of these conditions the accessing of the reinterpret_cast's result is undefined behavior.

A: First, check if the 2 classes are even same size. Conceivably, padding and alignment may make the positions of bitfields a, b, and c different from positions of normal members a, b and c etc. Why are you using char for 32-bit bitfields? My compiler warns about bitfield exceeding size of type.
Otherwise (if you change char to unsigned int for barfoo class), regardless of any standardese-UB thrown at you, the reinterpret_cast and access has good chance of working. Maybe even more so if you use the well-supported and well-established idiom of type-punning through a union.
Type-punning through a union is a way of telling your compiler 'these 2 pointers of different types may alias, do not make radical optimizations assuming that they may not alias'.

The world that we live and operate in has been greatly affected by Content Management Systems. In fact, ever since the appearance of public internet a lot of things have changed. The world has become a significantly smaller place because of this connectivity. But the real hero of the story is the Content Management Systems; they are the driving force behind the great internet explosion.
CMS have eliminated to a greater extent the need for a person to know coding in order to set-up a functional website. As much as there are people that think this is a great idea, it is not necessarily the case, but that is a story for another day. Besides this, a lot of work can still be done and is still being done to improve services offered online. Even real money gambling has improved.
The world of CMS is not a stagnant one. It is ever changing. And this is not changing anytime soon. The reason for the dynamism is the demand for better services from both the Web developers and their intended audience. Below are a couple of the top trends to expect as the year progresses.
Since CMS appeared, the amount of digital data being uploaded to the internet has increased exponentially. There are no signs that this is slowing down and really there is no reason why it should. However, one thing that is changing is quality requirements. Regardless of whether the content is video, text or audio it has to be high quality. This has pushed CMS to upgrade their platforms to be compatible with the latest content creation technology to stay updated what's what is happening with technology trends visit www.amadaxmagazine.co.za and stay updated.
There are very few sectors of the economy and even society that are not being affected by the improvement in AI. CMS are very practical places were AI can improve the way that thousands of people work. Naturally, all the content will need to be better organized and the algorithms being developed make this process much easier.


The black pepper essential oil has been used for more than 4,000 years. Archeologists found out references to black pepper use in India, Egypt, Greece and Rome. The oldest cookbook known from Mesopotamia and Egypt mention black pepper as a basic ingredient.
It is said that the Romans loved too adding pepper to their food; and we all know that Egyptians included this spice at mummifying process.
If you buy black pepper essential oil for drinking, be careful. Assure yourself to get high-quality, 100% pure-grade product that's made by a trustworthy and reputable company. If you choose a CO2-extracted black pepper oil, you'll get less alcohol left in the product.
Regardless these issues, there are other ways to achieve the black pepper's benefits: It can be inhaled, diffused as an ambient, warming aroma; and applied topically since its uses go far beyond flavoring your food.
Apply black pepper essential oil to create a warming sensation, so use small doses and dilute it with a carrier oil, like coconut oil, jojoba oil or almond oil. You can use a 1:1 dilution, especially if you apply the oil to sensitive skin.
You can also add add 3–5 drops of black pepper oil to a warm compress and apply to increase circulation and blood flow to the muscles and nerves.
Are you experiencing constipation, diarrhea and gas? take 1–2 drops of black pepper oil internally by adding it to a smoothie, soup or savory dish.
You can apply topically for stomach diseases, to relieve muscle injuries and tendonitis, or respiratory issues. It is good too to relieve arthritis and rheumatism.
Black pepper essential oil invigorates senses, so it is used to enhance mental clarity as well as to reduce cigarette cravings, or even for detox purposes. Try it, you'll love it!
