Latest On Broncos' HC Search
January 3rd, 2023 at 10:31pm CST by Sam Robinson
Barring the team needing to move to second-tier candidates, it does not appear the Broncos' new ownership contingent wants to put a first-timer in charge. The team continues to be connected to experienced candidates, Albert Breer of SI.com notes.
Denver tried rookie HCs Vance Joseph, Vic Fangio and Nathaniel Hackett since 2017; the team has finished under .500 in each campaign. The Broncos entered Joseph's debut without having finished with back-to-back losing seasons since the early 1970s. The team's new ownership has some big names on its docket to attempt a turnaround.
Jim Harbaugh and Sean Payton are indeed atop the Broncos' wish list, according to 9News' Mike Klis. The popular duo may receive more than one offer, and this disastrous season has dinged Denver's stock. The team has been connected to each throughout this process, and it is moving forward with plans to interview Harbaugh. The Panthers have already spoken with the Michigan HC, however, and the Colts have been linked to a run at bringing the former QB back to Indianapolis. Pursuits of Harbaugh and Payton will be competitive, and both are likely to be choosey.
Should the Rob Walton-fronted ownership group not land its home run hire, Klis adds Dan Quinn should probably be considered next on the team's list. Quinn has a longstanding relationship with GM George Paton, dating back to when the two worked with the Dolphins in the mid-2000s. The Dallas DC, however, was a finalist for the Denver job last year. It would be interesting to see if Quinn would go through another round of Broncos interviews, considering the team hired Hackett — now one of just three coaches since the 1970 merger to be fired before the end of their first season — over him.
The other name initially connected to the Broncos — Frank Reich — may not be in the running any longer, Klis adds. This would represent a quick trigger from the team's new search committee, which is headed by CEO Greg Penner, considering interviews have not yet begun. Reich wants to be a head coach in 2023 and is a respected offensive mind, but he does not appear to be especially high on the Broncos' early list. It will be interesting to see if this changes, depending on how the Harbaugh and/or Payton pursuits go.
The next Broncos HC, who will report directly to Penner, should be expected to be given full autonomy to assemble his staff. This would put Ejiro Evero on unsteady terrain. A holdover coordinator might be a tad unrealistic, but in the event the Broncos prioritize defensive continuity, Klis adds Evero's contract runs beyond 2022. Paton said the team wishes to interview Evero, despite his close relationship with Hackett leading him to turn down the team's offer.

Please just say No to Quinn and Reich!
BuddyBoy • 3 weeks ago
Quinn is who I think is the best choice for them. He will take charge and Wilson will not have the influence he had this year. No way that Harbaugh or Payton will want to come to that situation.
Goku the All Knowing • 3 weeks ago
everyone knows Josh McKown is most qualified candidate
Yep it is • 3 weeks ago
Quinn has already shown he can't handle anything more than defensive duties. It would be insane to bring in a D coordinator for a team in need of a QB fix. Plus Quinn flamed out in Atlanta. I don't understand the infatuation with him as a head coach
if anyone deserves another chance as HC it's Dan Quinn.
Has consumately been a great DC , and had to deal with Arthur Blanks Falcons last go around.
reminds me of Gary Kubiak's career.
Great football mind, bad situation in Houston. Had a lot of success in Baltimore , got another chance at HC with the Manning Broncos and won the chip.

Maybe Russell can coach, he can keep his office and parking spots.
maxj • 3 weeks ago
This year was so bad, I'd be happy with Rosberg, but the dude's retired anyway.
HighAltitude • 3 weeks ago
Comments by the Broncos front office indicate they are looking for the head coach to be more of an overseer than a nuts and bolts offense/defense schemer. Their words indicated they are looking for leadership and experience with managing a coaching staff and are not interested in simply promoting the league's latest hot OC/DC name.
Ak185 • 3 weeks ago
To be honest, I think that Reich would be a better option than most on that last. Reich at least has some history of being a good offensive coach , and his since his primary issue in Denver would be quarterback, his own experience might be an advantage. It's early, but the Penner-Walton group should be less likely to interfere than Irsay. I do not think that Quinn is anywhere even close to the realm of possibility of being a good hire, since the only thing that he would bring to the table would be a change in an already heavily talented defense.
Payton would likely the best bet, if not for the fact that he is uninterested. He is respected and credentialed enough to be able to curtail Wilson, and also to install an effective gameplan. The announcement that Paton will not be the next coach's supervisor was, I believe, aimed at Payton. Payton would obviously not be a true GM/coach, but there's no way that he wouldn't get say over the roster.
Barring those two, I think that retaining Evero would be a good choice. It may not solve the Broncos' Wilson problem on its own, but it may keep the defense competitive. If Evero (who also isn't interested, apparently) is truly as good as he appears to be, the Broncos may be able to survive another year of the Wilson deal with a young and talented coach who can sustain the defense while the team searches for another QB. I don't think that Evero on his own gives Wilson a good chance to recover his production, but he would possibly give Denver a chance to stay a defensive power until they reinvent themselves offensively.
I'm not sure that Harbaugh is the answer, either. I know he wants back in to the NFL, but I'm not sure that his style is long-lived enough for sustained NFL success. Also, it'd be good at least see him finish the job in Michigan or at least have a few good playoff seasons instead of departing just after finally stepping up.

Ak185;
Thanks for being honest in what your wrote.
Most posters aren't which is why they don't write that.
I didn't write that, so I'm not being honest in what I wrote.
I am usually dishonest in what I write. This time I was honest. But I am not normally honest, truthfully.
Well, honest or not I'd say you have a reasonable sense of accuracy.
+1 on Reich or something similar, all they need to do is get Wilson marginally better than Hackett w/ a healthy o-line and same defense and the Broncos can win games – a lot. Unfortunately, now they're so bad the front office is probably going to make a granular charted mess out of the whole thing.

Gorgeously serene and graced with the slightest cover of snow, Mount Kenya serves as a monument to nature's artistry. The once active volcano, reshaped and recontoured by thousands of years of glacial erosion, is the birthplace of One World Roasters' Kenyan AA. The northeastern slope of the mountain provides the perfect conditions for growing exceptional and distinctive coffee beans with its ample exposure to sunlight and rainfall, as well as its uniquely rich and acidic soil.
These attributes make for a special coffee with characteristic African fruit and berry notes as well as other complexities reminiscent of Columbian mild varieties, like smooth mouth feel and cocoa, caramel, and brown sugar flavors—nature's magic at work.
Despite Ethiopia's long and rich history in the coffee growing industry (perhaps being the birthplace of coffee), the practice is relatively new to Kenya, having started in 1893, when the French Holy Ghost Fathers introduced the coffee plant to the country from Reunion Island. But the recentness of this development should not be mistaken for immaturity—Kenyan coffee farmers are so skilled and in-demand that their beans are often auctioned off at very costly prices to bidders around the world.
Unfortunately, political instability and an encroaching property market have put these talented coffee growers in a difficult position. Thus it is all the more important that we, as roasters and consumers of this magnificent coffee, always choose fair trade beans out of respect to their craftsmanship and well-being as fellow people.

Happy Thursday! I hope you're all having a great week. Mine's been pretty good, but boy, have we had a lot of rain this week. Here in Central Indiana, we got around 10" of snow on Saturday. That melted in a couple of days, and then we had a ton of rain on Tuesday, and we're having another day today with a ton of rain! My yard is beginning to look like a pond, and the quiet little stream we have around 2 sides of our yard looks like a fast-moving river! 😲 It's supposed to stop sometime tonight, thankfully!
Well, I only have a couple more days to share Sale-A-Bration projects with you! This BIG promotion ends this Saturday, March 31, 2018 at 11:50 p.m. (MT). If you don't know what Sale-A-Bration is, CLICK HERE to find out more.
The Sale-A-Bration item that is featured on this card is the Bubbles & Fizz Designer Series Paper (DSP). It's a Level One SAB item, and you can get it with a $50 order (before shipping & tax). Order must be placed by 11:50 p.m. (MT) THIS Saturday.
I wanted to show that this colorful paper works with more than just the Bubble Over Stamp Set. I paired the DSP with the Bird Banter Stamp Set. I colored the images in with Stampin' Blends before they became unavailable to purchase (they should be available again the end of May or the beginning of June). You can easily watercolor the birds in with ink pads and Blender Pens, or color them in with Stampin' Write Markers as well.
Lemon Lime Twist 3/8" Mini Striped Ribbon: 2"
Punch one end of both Bubbles & Fizz DSP banners by inserting them all the way into the Banner Triple Punch, and then punching. Fold the Bermuda Bay piece in half (fold on the left) to form the card base. Attach the Daffodil Delight banner to the left side of the card, and attach the Calypso Coral banner to the right side (see picture). The top edge of both banners should be lined-up with the top edge of the card base.
Stamp the branch stamp from the Bird Banter Stamp Set across the bottom part of the Whisper White piece with the Tuxedo Black Memento Pad (see picture). Stamp the smaller right-facing bird stamp onto the left side of the branch, and the smaller left-facing bird stamp onto the right side of the branch, using the same ink pad. Stamp the heart stamp above the birds using the same ink pad, too.
Color the top half of the birds in with the Bermuda Bay Stampin' Blends Combo Pack. Color the bottom half of the birds in with the Daffodil Delight Stampin' Blends Combo Pack. Color the leaves in with the Old Olive Stampin' Blends Combo Pack. Color the heart in with the Calypso Coral Stampin' Blends Combo Pack. (The Stampin' Blends will be available to purchase again the end of May, 2018 or the beginning of June, 2018).
Stamp the "You're the kind..." stamp onto the center of the Lemon Lime Twist piece using the Memento Pad. Attach it to the bottom, left corner of the Whisper White piece. Fold the Lemon Lime Twist Mini Striped Ribbon in half, and attach it to the back of the Whisper White piece, placing it at the end of the greeting piece. Make sure the folded end is showing from the front. Attach it all to the center of the Calypso Coral piece, and then attach it to the top, center of the card base using Stampin' Dimensionals.
Attach three Daffodil Delight enamel dots from the Glitter Enamel Dots to the bottom, right corner of the card base. Choose three different Daffodil Delight shades, attaching the lightest on farthest right, and ending with the darkest on the far left.


This sparkly black nail color is cleverly called "Center of the You-niverse," a great new shade to try from Opi's winter collection. The sparkles add some glam to this edgy chic look--it's the perfect color for the holiday season. Below, I am wearing it on my toes with gem-studded Prada heels. Find the color and other great winter shades here!


Take a moment and picture the raggedy, seasoned bill from "Schoolhouse Rock", who after getting tossed around from one chamber of Congress to the other, finally becomes ratified into law. After going through the entire painstaking process of becoming law, what the singing bill fails to tell its audience -- is that the Supreme Court can strike down certain aspects contained within the bill -- years after it's been ratified into law.
This is precisely what happened to the Voting Rights Act of 1965 (VRA) when the Supreme Court overruled Section 4 of the VRA in the Shelby v. Holder ruling last June, which had required certain states with a longstanding history of racial discrimination at the polls to receive approval or "pre-clearance" from the Justice Department over changes to voting practices and procedures. While the ruling was found unconstitutional based on 40 year-old data collected on voter discrimination, new frameworks for identifying voter discrimination have been put in place and referenced in a congressional response to the ruling.
Federal courts the ability to oversee and approve changes to election laws in states with a history of voter discrimination.
Individuals the right to sue immediately if they've been discriminated against without requiring proof of intent -- just proof that discrimination took place.
Greater statewide transparency in publicizing changes to voting districts and ID requirements.
The bill contains further points in response to the Supreme Court ruling, but judging by its current support, it probably won't get too far along in the lawmaking process. What it has done successfully, however, is spark a new debate on voter rights in the U.S. that is poised to bring an overhaul to state voter laws, as a stopgap to the legislative vacuum created by Shelby v. Holder. As debate circulates on voter rights, interesting partisan arguments and reformulated bills are bound to surface in regards to the role of the federal in state voting laws.
The Department of Justice has recently filed lawsuits against both Texas and North Carolina, over their voter ID and redistricting plans. The VRA of 1965 is a landmark civil rights legislation that offered critical safeguards to ensuring equal access to the ballot box. It's now the responsibility of lawmakers to provide voter rights in states with ongoing voter "wrongs". Until new legislation is passed, the potential for equal access to the polls remain in limbo this election year, in what is a major blow to minority communities suffering from voter discrimination.

Gas prices are taking a toll on Hamptons residents. With oil prices soaring on Wall Street, Main Street is feeling a pinch at the pump.
The Mobil station in Amagansett had a regular gallon of gas at $4.27 and summer is still a few months away. Historically, gas prices in the summer time rise and in the Hamptons, we feel the extra pain because of the cost of transporting the gasoline further out onto the island.
We haven't seen prices like this since the highs of 2008. Are gas prices affecting how much driving you are doing these days? We want to know!


After anxiously waiting, I finally had the chance to take the new Sigma 14mm f1.8 DG HSM ART lens out under the stars. When I got the heads up that the lens would be on the way, I immediately started making plans. I ended up deciding on the Eastern Sierra mountains and hitting a few spots that have been on my list for a while.
Up until now, the Sigma 20mm and 24mm f1.4 ART lenses have been my go-to wide angles lenses for night photography. As much as I've loved shooting with those lenses, I've been missing an ultra-wide angle lens in my bag. On this trip, I'd be shooting with my Sony A7RII and using the Sigma MC-11 adapter to attached a Canon mount version of the Sigma 14mm.
A 14mm lens is nothing new on the market, but one that shoots at f1.8 certainly is. When it comes to night photography, that extra stop + of light is a huge advantage. It means brightening up an incredibly dark landscape a bit more or being able to lower your ISO to help keep your images clean.
While I was waiting for the Moon to fully set and the Milky Way to move in to position, I took a few these to compare results from shooting this scene. Both images were shot on a Sony A7RII at 30 seconds, ISO3200 and f1.8 and f2.8 respectively. Edits were done in Lightroom with the same settings pasted on both. The images were taken a little under 3 minutes apart.
This was the final image from Convict Lake that I was waiting to shoot. With the Moon fully below the horizon, this place was incredibly dark. I couldn't believe how bright the Milky Way was shining over the mountains. While shooting, I was experimenting a bit with shorter exposures to keep the stars from trailing, so having more than an extra stop of light definitely made a difference. I lucked out as just a few minutes later and the wind picked up and killed the reflection on the lake.
With the Moon setting after 1am, I only had a short window of dark skies during the two nights I'd be shooting. I didn't get to hit all of the locations that were on my list, but I had a blast heading from location to location and trying to see what I come back with while shooting with the 14mm. Here are a few of my favorite images from the trip.
Sitting at over 9,000ft elevation , Lake Sabrina was one of the spots I was most excited to shoot visit. Due to it's location being a bit further from the rest of the spots I had planned, I saved it until my last night. I was originally hoping to use a bit of Moon light to help illuminate the scene, but the Milky Way wasn't quiet in the position I wanted. I could have taken a few photos when the Moon was still up and then composited it with a frame taken of the sky a bit later, but I prefer to capture my images using a single exposure. I shot this at a slightly lower ISO than some of my other images and relied on that extra stop from shooting at 1.8 to help bring out some detail.
During the day, Bishop hit over 100 degrees, by the time I was made it to Lake Sabrina the temperature was in the high 40's. I didn't spend as much time I would've liked here, or any of the locations for that matter, so I definitely hoped to return soon.
June Beach wasn't originally on my list of locations to shoot, but after scouting during the day I knew I needed to adjust my timeline so I could fit it in. With the short window between Moonset and astronomical twilight, plus the fact that most of my compositions were facing South / South West, it really made hitting all of these spots a bit difficult. Normally I would spend a bit more time trying different compositions, but I probably shot 5-6 images at each spot and made my way to the next.
Although I've had just two nights of shooting with the 14mm, I'm confident it will rarely be leaving my camera. Thank you again to my friends at Sigma for getting me an early copy of the lens to head out and explore with.

As I have mentioned before, I am working on a book on think tanks in developing countries -the focus is changing towards the analysis of think tanks influence, though. This first stage has me working on a literature review and, as promised, here as some ideas that I'd like to share with you.
One of the first questions I've had to address is how to define think tanks?
Legal definitions -for example 501 (c) (3) organisations in the U.S.– and narrative, normative definitions that emphasise their independence, non-profit status, non-partisan, etc.
Relational definitions that refer to the self-identification as think tank in relation to other organisations that may play similar, overlapping or complementary roles. I have written quite a bit about this in this blog.
As boundary workers or windows into the policymaking process -and into other spaces (this comes from the literature on think tanks in China where think tanks are described as windows that allowed Chinese policymakers to look into Western policy communities and societies -as well as allowing western policymakers and scholars to look into Chinese policymaking communities.
Public and elite (including policymakers) education (something often forgotten by many think tanks as it is certainly difficult to assess its impact).
What do you think? Or maybe James McGaan is right and we'll know one when we see it.


Chris Temple introduced International Frontier Resources (TSX.V:IFR and OTCQB:IFRTF) to me at the New Orleans Investment Conference. After doing my DD I thought it would be good to introduce the Company to all of you. Steve Hanson the CEO and President joins me to share the details on his Company.
IFR is focused on oil in Mexico. If you missed it recently Mexico opened up its oil industry to outside investment and IFR was one of the first small cap companies to go through the bid round last year. The Company was granted the Tecolutla block and is working through permitting currently. Listen to find out the plans moving forward and its key joint venture with a large Mexican oil company.

Fantasy sports is a game played on an online platform where the participants or players create their own virtual teams with the use of real players from various teams scheduled to play a match or a league. Losing or winning depends upon the real performance of players in their created fantasy team. One of the great and successful examples of a fantasy sports app is Fantasy Cricket App Dream 11. You must check the guide on how to design and develop fantasy sports app like dream 11.
Fantasy sports app is not similar to regular betting, in fact, it is just the opposite. The following image will help you understand how it differs from the regular form of betting:
Covid-19 pandemic has shaken the entire industrial sector. Most of the sectors are highly impacted due to the pandemic and suffered huge losses. Although, there is good news for the online business as most of the online companies have turned out to be profitable. Especially such apps like fantasy sports app where people can play along while sitting at home and they are getting opportunities to earn at the same time. This means entertainment with money.
Therefore, on one side, there is misery for some sectors, while on the other side, there are benefits and growth opportunities for some sectors, especially the digital or the online business.
Here are some statistics showing the huge craze among people for Fantasy Sports App:
In India and other Asian countries, only 7% of people play fantasy sports on the desktop, and the rest 93% of people through mobile devices via mobile applications.
In the fantasy sports application, statistics show that there are 19% female players and 81% male players. This shows that males are more inclined towards it, and the female participation also cannot be underestimated.
More than half of the fantasy sports gamers/players are between 18 to 34 years.
As far as the earning are concerned, around 47% of the players are earning more than $75,000.
The global fantasy sports market will shoot up to $30,000 million by the end of the year 2025.
The number of users of the Dream 11 app has increased tremendously over the last two years. It is India's largest fantasy sports gaming platform, where users have increased from 6 million to 60 million in the past two years.
Seeing all the above statistics, you can rest assured that the future of such fantasy sports apps is promising, and that's why it is becoming an eye-candy for most of the corporates nowadays.
The access to the internet and mobile phones have completely transformed the online business, including the emergence in demand of Fantasy Sports Applications.
As per the reports, the revenue of the global market is anticipated to be reaching a mark of $2174 million by the end of the year 2023 by its growth at a CAGR of 18.61% during the period of forecast. When the internet is so affordable, and the availability of smartphones is so easy, there are too high chances that fantasy sports are going to be the next big thing. Hence, sports gaming will encourage gamers to get engaged in fantasy sports like fantasy cricket, fantasy football, fantasy baseball, fantasy basketball, etc.
Prominent Fantasy Sports are Cricket, Basketball, and Football, etc.
More than 50% of the users of fantasy sports are aged between 18 & 34.
Mobile devices are the primary mediums of playing Fantasy Sports App. Desktop users are much less in numbers.
From a hobby to a billion-dollar industry, fantasy sport has completely changed the game altogether. There are millions of players around the world. When we talk number, there are more than 59.3 million users alone in the USA and Canada, and the number is going to reach 100 million by the end of the year 2023.
We have to take a step back to understand the reason for the emergence of the Fantasy Sports League. It was back in the year 1952 in the USA when the concept of Fantasy Sports first came into the picture, and it was the first baby step of its emergence. Since then, it has grown and expanded tremendously, with more than 200 operators along with more than 59.3 million users in the USA and Canada. In the USA alone, the number of users is around 21%, and that counts to more than 12 million users. In fact, in the USA, around 65% of sports fans are playing fantasy sports.
In India, the concept of Fantasy Sports is here to stay and will only grow big in the upcoming future. The sports and gaming industry can undoubtedly break all the previous records when it comes to engaging sports fans and analyzing their knowledge and skills in terms of the sport.

Winners of the nineteenth session, Liverpool are the defending champions. The season was planned much earlier, but then it got postponed due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

Magnesium (Mg) alloys are receiving increasing attention due to their abundance, light weight, castability, formability, mechanical properties and corrosion performance. By selecting the appropriate combination of materials, coatings and surface modifications, their corrosion resistance can be greatly enhanced. Corrosion prevention of magnesium alloys is a comprehensive guide to the effective prevention of corrosion in these important light metals.
Part one discusses alloying, inhibition and prevention strategies for magnesium alloys as well as corrosion and prevention principles. Part two reviews surface treatment and conversion. Beginning with an overview of surface cleaning and pre-conditioning, the book goes on to discuss the use of surface processing and alloying, laser treatments, chemical conversion and electrochemical anodization to improve the corrosion resistance of magnesium alloys. Coatings are then the focus of part three, including varied plating techniques, cold spray coatings, gel and electroless electrophoresis coatings. Finally, the book concludes in part four with a selection of case studies investigating the application of preventative techniques for both automotive and medical applications.
With its distinguished editor and international team of expert contributors, Corrosion prevention of magnesium alloys is a key reference tool for all those working with magnesium and its alloys, including scientists, engineers, metallurgists, aerospace and automotive professionals, and academics interested in this field.
Guang-Ling Song is currently a Research Scientist in ORNL National Lab, USA after 5 years working for General Motors Global Research and Development.

The cruel awakening that greets many a newborn child into the world. This metaphoric slap however, greets me on the first day of 2010 with the realization of the journey on which I have set out upon. What have I chosen for myself, and what kind of idiot decides to commit to journal his 10 year attempts at mastering fitness, writing and photography, and possibly other things that come up during the decade?
December 31, 2019, Tuesday, and I'm on the coast in a large American city, doing the circuit of live talk show appearances to discuss my latest blockbuster movie, or best selling novel, or the success of my work out program DVDs. I'm on edge as the interviews begin, because I'm really excited about talking about the new and now, but the interviewers are always going back to this prediction.
How did I know ten years ago that I would be sitting here, talking to them, on this date, and about this success?
The answer seems so simple, and not at all extraordinary to me, or many of the others that understand the concepts I outlined in my DecaTrek during the ten years preceding the arrival of 2020.
I found myself at the end of 2009 successful in my technology career, yet unfulfilled. What had interested me in the past, was no longer pushing my buttons. I had to make a decision to either continue on that course feeling numb, or make a conscious decision to do something about it.
Sure I knew the path was long, and the progress may be slow, but if I took a step every day toward those ends, I would hone the skills I wanted to master. And once mastered, the application of those skills to write the breakthrough novel, the script that would turn into the blockbuster hit movie, or the work out routine that would help others achieve greater success transforming their bodies was practically assured.
Were there any times during the 10 years that I wanted to throw the towel in and give up?
Sure, of course, I'm human, not superhuman. I'm not psychic either. The truth I knew that kept me going, was that as a human, the further I was able to push toward honing my skills on a daily basis, would result in eventually cresting the zenith and become like sledding down a snow covered hill. Look out, I'm coming through here now, make way, this thing doesn't have breaks.
Was I afraid that my prediction was too bold, that I would be interviewed on their programs as the guy that failed to achieve his DecaTrek? That I wouldn't be a best selling author, or scriptwriter, or exercise guru?
Actually, no I wasn't afraid, because that wasn't my goal in the first place, it was just the societal phenomena that went along with achievement. It didn't really matter to me whether or not I achieved the successes I was predicting. What mattered to me most was setting out on the journey, taking the steps, falling down, failing, and getting back up to take to more steps.
People are always fascinated in the stories of others that step forward to take control over their own existence. Some people live entire lives not recognizing the hunger to believe in their own humanity. They fill that hunger with all sorts of external things, from belief systems to reality numbing substances.
The fact that failure is your best friend, is a concept that is lost on too many of us humans. Failure is what has made us who we are, has taught us what we know, has delivered us from the dark ages, and brought us blazing into the Twenty-First century. Failure is the ground covered, the steps taken, the falls encountered, the cutting necessary to prune and direct our future toward success. Without failure, we are sitting still or falling back. We begin to rot.
I chose to fail, rather than rot.
If you are reading this entry before the New Year of 2020, I invite you to begin your own DecaTrek.
Set forth on your own journey to take a step a day, a week, a month toward improving your skill strength in an area of great interest to you.
I hope to share my failures with the world here on DecaTrek.com. My hope is that they will encourage you to start to fail on your own. We walk a step, before we ever run a mile.
Happy New Year 2010, and let's get this party started!
On Twitter, the hash tag #DecaTrek will be used to collect and chronicle the Trekkers and our journeys. My email address is Trekker (at) DecaTrek (dot) com.


Are you an immigrant victim of a serious crime who has cooperated with law enforcement in the investigation or prosecution of the crime?
Did you witness a traumatic crime and provide critical information to law enforcement?
Are you the undocumented parent whose child has been the victim of a serious crime?
If so, you may qualify for the U visa. The U Visa was created to provide law enforcement with an effective tool to encourage immigrant victims to come forward and report crimes and assist in the investigation and prosecution of crimes. Until enactment of the U visa, millions of undocumented victims remained silent and perpetrators continued to exploit and harm their victims. The U visa provides undocumented immigrants who have assisted law enforcement with the ability to obtain lawful status. The U visa also allows applicants to include dependent children, spouses, parents, and siblings in the U visa process, enabling applicants to obtain status for their family members.
The U visa is subject to numerical limitations every year. Only a certain number of U visas are issued every year. Once the cap has been reached, approved applicants must wait in line until a visa becomes available. However, those awaiting U visas are able to apply for employment authorization in the interim. The U visa is a significant benefit and can end years of uncertainty as an undocumented immigrant. It can also reunify and enable your loved ones to also obtain lawful status.
An applicant must demonstrate that he/she was helpful or is likely to be helpful in the investigation of a covered criminal activity. This requirement is demonstrated not only through an applicant's own statements, or police reports, but by a "U visa Certification." This certification is a form signed by a law enforcement official certifying the applicant's cooperation and helpfulness. This official could be a police officer, district attorney, or other type of law enforcement official. Law enforcement does not have to comply with a U visa certification. Often times, it takes advocacy to successfully obtain the certification. We regularly work with police officers and put together packets for our clients to help with the police department or district attorney's decision making process as to whether or not they will agree to sign the U certification. We realize this is a critical step because without this certification, there is no way to apply for the U visa. Talk to us today about working with us to work with law enforcement to obtain this critical element of the U visa application. Click here for more information.
A U visa applicant may be able to file a petition on behalf of his or her family members. Click here for more information.
Even if you saw a crime but were not the direct victim of it, you still may be able to benefit from the U visa program. An indirect victim is typically a family member of the person who has died or who is incompetent or incapacitated. The most common example is an undocumented parent, with a U.S. citizen minor child that has been a victim of a serious crime. Additionally, being a bystander to a serious crime may also qualify you for a U Visa even if you were not victimized personally. The U visa could be issued to a bystander victim who is a stranger who saw the criminal event occur and was so traumatized by what s/he saw that they suffered severe harm (a miscarriage, for example). Click here for more information.
The U visa can also provide a route to obtain waivers for many inadmissibility factors not available in other forms of traditional or common routes to immigration relief. The U visa can be a way for an applicant to finally obtain lawful status, without being barred for past immigration violations, some minor criminal convictions, and other traditional bars to immigration relief. For more information, click here. The U visa Nonimmigrant waiver can waive almost all grounds of inadmissability except, most notably, terrorism.
As a victim, there comes a time when you take that courageous first step in the right direction. Make your first step today by calling us at 213-627-8997 or clicking here to book a confidential Case Evaluation Appointment.
