U.S. Customs And Border Protection: Some Statistics On The Invasion
This piece focuses on the problem that is the United States border, particularly the side with Mexico. There have been many interests vested in not securing it. Consequently, people flood in illegally, since there's little reason not to.
Why should Canadians care about this?
The answer is simple: it's not just an American problem. Open borders threatens the sovereignty of nations in general. Not only that, many of those illegal aliens will surely be working their way to Canada, given the generous welfare benefits available.
Unfortunately, far too few Canadians, including many "conservatives", fail to realize that open borders changes everything. The makeup of the country impacts everything: voting patterns; finance; culture; crime; and future immigration policies. And the mantra "just come legally" misses the bigger picture.
For an earlier piece on the estimated real scale of illegals in the U.S., north of 22 million. There was also this gem in 2018, suing for the right to illegally enter the U.S.
Now, let's get into some of the data from the USCBP, or the U.S. Customs and Border Patrol. The numbers are quite shocking indeed.
A note about "fiscal year": Fiscal Year 2022 runs October 01, 2021 – September 30, 2022. All of the years seem to be done in this format.
"Recidivism" in the context of CBP refers to the percentage of people who are detained multiple times within the same fiscal year. It's been approximately 25% the last few years, meaning 1/4 of people caught and forced to leave are caught again. There doesn't seem to be much of a deterrent. As for drugs being brought in:
October 2021 376 220 0 290 73 3
November 2021 191 73 0 581 84 3
December 2021 127 102 66 559 26 4
January 2022 360 39 0 457 65 56
February 2022 785 90 2 268 12 27
March 2022 58 50 2 224 13 4
April 2022 259 186 14 479 174 19
Data from the 2022 fiscal year (thus far). The C.B.P. also provides recent statistics on the drug busts that have occurred from people trying to bring narcotics into the country. While it's nice to have these seizures, it's likely just a drop in the bucket as to what really goes on.

For "enforcement actions", this refers to: individuals encountered at ports of entry who are seeking lawful admission into the United States but are determined to be inadmissible, individuals presenting themselves to seek humanitarian protection under our laws, and individuals who withdraw an application for admission and return to their countries of origin within a short timeframe. This is according to the CBP's own definition.
In other words, it's the number of people who show up LEGALLY to border ports of entry and then are turned away. It doesn't cover the vast numbers who enter illegally between border ports.

There have also been gang-related arrests of people attempting to enter the United States. Of course, not all are included, just a few which represent the larger numbers of arrests.
Concerning arrests of suspected terrorists (all nationalities), CBP provides some data of people detained at both the Southern and Northern borders.

How many encounters does the U.S. Government have overall? Thankfully, they do provide more data, and a lot of it is mind blowing.
Nationwide Encounters
Encounter data includes U.S. Border Patrol (USBP) Title 8 Apprehensions, Office of Field Operations (OFO) Title 8 Inadmissibles, and Title 42 Expulsions for fiscal years (FY) 2020, 2021, and 2022.

TOTAL 904,863 400,414 1,542,685 1,141,054 (so far)
Once more, how many people are simply sneaking in undetected?
The data can further be broken down by the type of person/people coming:
Accompanied Minors (AM)
Individuals in a Family Unit (FMUA)
Unaccompanied Children (UC)
While there are clearly a lot of people who get stopped by the various departments, an awful lot don't. They are let in through some pathway, or just sneak in.
It also doesn't help that there are countless Sanctuary Cities and States, which do an end run around border security. If people know they can get social services without the risk of being deported, many more will come.
Again, this is not just an American issue. Many of the hordes flooding into the U.S. will eventually make their way North. Canadians should absolutely be worried about this.
A little self promotion: Borderless Canada is still available online. Learn about what's been going on in this country. Virtually all major issues can be directly tied to immigration and border security, and it's not racist or bigoted to discuss these hard truths.
Don't worry, there will be much more included on this subject in the near future. This can't be done justice by a single piece.

Canadian Trucking Alliance Raising Lots Of Questions Lately
Underway right now a very, VERY large group of truck drivers is heading to Ottawa to protest mandatory vaccinations and to demand that policy be rescinded. Now, do their associations have their backs? Not in the slightest.
The Canadian Trucking Alliance made waves recently when they condemned the planned "convoy to Ottawa". From their own statement:
The vast majority of the Canadian trucking industry is vaccinated with the overall industry vaccination rate among truck drivers closely mirroring that of the general public. Accordingly, most of our nation's hard-working truck drivers are continuing to move cross-border and domestic freight to ensure our economy continues to function.
The Canadian Trucking Alliance (CTA) does not support and strongly disapproves of any protests on public roadways, highways, and bridges. CTA believes such actions – especially those that interfere with public safety – are not how disagreements with government policies should be expressed. Members of the trucking industry who want to publicly express displeasure over government policies can choose to hold an organized, lawful event on Parliament Hill or contact their local MP. What is not acceptable is disrupting the motoring public on highways and commerce at the border.
"The Government of Canada and the United States have now made being vaccinated a requirement to cross the border. This regulation is not changing so, as an industry, we must adapt and comply with this mandate," said CTA president Stephen Laskowski. "The only way to cross the border, in a commercial truck or any other vehicle, is to get vaccinated."
Instead of supporting the people who pay their salaries, the C.T.A. makes the suggestion to "call your Member of Parliament". That's interesting, considering that all parties are pretty much on board with the same thing. Like so many unions and association groups before, the C.T.A. seems content to throw the workers under the bus. On the surface this is alarming.
The C.T.A does not exist in isolation. Provincial counterparts make up this group, giving it more political power, and ability to influence policy.
Another red flag is that several of the groups that make up the Canadian Trucking Alliance have been receiving CEWS, the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy. This includes British Columbia, Alberta, and the Atlantic Provinces. Right there, loyalty to the members is tested against the best interests of their employees.
Yes, this is beating a dead horse, but plenty of industries are taking the blood money. This includes: restaurants and hotels, political parties, law firms, more law firms, and churches, to name a few.
In November 2020, the Manitoba Trucking Association received a $125,000 grant from the Western Economic Diversification Program. The stated goal was helping companies adapt to the "pandemic" circumstances in their businesses. Previously, they had taken $268,000 back in 2014. The Atlantic Provinces Trucking Associaton received $37,500 back in 2013 from the Federal Government.
In a move that should surprise no one, the C.T.A. regularly lobbies the Federal Government on a number of issues. Readers of this site should expect this. One item to note is immigration:
"Immigration – related to temporary foreign worker program and support for demand driven immigration allowances specific to assisting shortage of qualified truck drivers."
While the C.T.A. is putting the screws to its own people, and supporting vaccine mandates, they are also calling on Ottawa to make it easier to import a replacement workforce. Presumably, the people coming into the country will only be able to as a condition of taking the shots (2 or 3 so far). The Saskatchewan Trucking Association — a member group — is also pushing to have an increase in immigration to import more truck drivers. So did their Ontario counterpart in 2019. What sort of picture are we getting here?
[1] Force Canadians out, or to retire, with mandatory medical procedure.
[2] Import new truckers who would be willing to work for less, and take the shots.
Unfortunately, this is hardly the only industry where this is happening.
If you think the trucking groups are only lobbying Federally, you would be very much mistaken. It continues on:
GOVERNMENT BRANCH
2018 WorkSafeBC $1,826,134
2019 Employment and Social Development Canada $22,000
2019 Ministry of Transportation & Infrastructure $1,400,000
2019 Natural Resources Canada $20,000
2020-01-15 to 2021-12-31 WorkSafeBC $4,641,567
2020-03-31 to 2021-03-31 Transportation and Infrastructure $1,540,000
The British Columbia Trucking Association (which is part of C.T.A.) has regularly been receiving money both Provincial and Federal Governments. That may explain why there is no real opposition to forcing the truckers to take the experimental shots. In fact, C.T.A. put out a joint statement with Ottawa on the topic of vaccinating workers.
Why does the Canadian Trucking Alliance support mandatory vaccines, and object to the protests in Ottawa? Maybe, just maybe, their interests aren't with the individual truckers. Perhaps, money does influence policy positions.
Taking a quick look through CEWS and other Federal grants, there are plenty of trucking companies who are receiving handouts as well. This would explain why so many are on board with vaccine mandates.
Instead of looking out for workers, the C.T.A. touts the advantage of a projected driver shortage claiming it will ultimately drive up wages. Sure, except for the people who were let go.

Compilation Video Of "Pandemic" Psychological Warfare Against Society (Extended Also Available)
A video of nearly 90 minutes has been put together for your viewing. Yes, it's a bit glitchy in a few places, but this is the first attempt something this size. Nothing here should be all that surprising. A page will be going up soon with all of the supporting links for more information.
Given YouTube's rather "questionable" (or non-existent) commitment to free speech, here it is posted on Odysee. Everyone who sees it is encouraged to save and/or mirror it. The censorship gods strike hard and fast.
The extended version is also posted, which contains material that was missing from the previous video. Here it is on Odysee.
Considering how easy most of this was to find, the only explanation for it not being reported in the mainstream press is that they have been bought off. This applies to "conservative" media and to the vast majority of self-described independents.
Thank you to a number of people who have helped out over the last year, and in particular, Fred and Andy. Christine and Shelly also deserve a shoutout for their work.
Take care of yourselves, and your families.

The Myocarditis Foundation, And Donations From Financially Interested Parties
It's a narrative seen all too often lately: heart problems and death among young and healthy people is common. There's nothing too alarming. Well, is that really the case? Are things this straightforward, or is something obvious not being discussed?
On the surface, there's nothing wrong with an organization whose purpose is to bring public awareness to common health problems. There are certainly many of them. The Myocarditis Foundation is just one of these groups.
Upon digging a little deeper, there are questions about this group, and what its interests really are. In particular, it's curious where their financing comes from, and what they leave out of the conversation. But first, a bit of backstory:
Regeneron was one of the companies in 2020 who was vying to get a cure onto the market for this so-called "Covid-19". They ultimately got Regen-CoV (casirivimab and imdevimab) emergency use authorization with the FDA. This obviously wasn't full approval, but allowed the products to be distributed. Regen-CoV has some interesting side effects, to put it mildly.
The story gets more interesting. Regeneron has many products either in testing, or already on the market. One such case is a partnership with Sanofi on a cancer drug. Another drug was something called Arcalyst, which was to be repurposed by a company called Kiniksa Pharmaceuticals. This essentially amounts to taking a commerical drug, and finding an entirely new purpose for it.
In its information for investors, Kiniksa explains how this happened to come about. They are quite open that this is someone else's creation.
Rilonacept was discovered and developed by Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Regeneron) and is approved by the FDA under the brand name ARCALYST® for the treatment of CAPS. Kiniksa licensed rilonacept from Regeneron in 2017 for evaluation in diseases believed to be mediated by both IL-1α and IL-1β, including recurrent pericarditis. The FDA granted Breakthrough Therapy designation to rilonacept for recurrent pericarditis in 2019. Based on the Phase 3 RHAPSODY data announced today, the Biologic License Application (BLA) for CAPS will transfer to Kiniksa, and the company plans to submit an sBLA with the FDA in recurrent pericarditis later this year. Upon receipt of FDA approval for rilonacept in recurrent pericarditis, Kiniksa would assume the sales and distribution of rilonacept for the approved indications in the United States and will evenly split profits on sales with Regeneron.
Kiniksa Pharmaceuticals was founded in 2015 in Bermuda. Despite being a "new" company, there were able to raise $80 million relatively quickly. Over the next year, they would obtain the exclusive rights to rilonacept. 2018, they were able to raise $170.7 million with their IPO, or initial public offering. 2019, the FDA conferred "Breakthrough Therapy" designation on them and they went into Stage 2 testing. All of this is pretty impressive for a company that seemingly came out of nowhere.
June 29, 2020 Kiniksa announced the Phase 3 testing for its drug to combat recurring pericarditis. What a coincidence that they would soon have such a growing market for their product.
March 18, 2021, Kiniksa received FDA approval for its product. Proprietary name is Arcalyst, and the established name is Rilonacept. "Treatment of recurrent pericarditis (RP) and reduction in risk of recurrence in adults and children 12 years and older." Interesting how this product came along just in time for the wave of heart problems that would ensue.
[1] Regeneron is involved in conducting research into various cures for Covid-19. Of course, so are many others.
[2] Kiniksa takes an existing product from Regeneron. It's used as a cure for pericarditis, the scale of which is likely made much worse by Covid-19 vaccines.
Problem. Reaction. Solution.
Now, what does all of this have to do with the Myocarditis Foundation? It turns out that Kiniksa Pharmaceuticals is one of their major donors. In their Spring 2021 newsletter, the Foundation celebrates the revelation of Kiniksa's approval for recurring pericarditis with the FDA.
It's curious that the other corporate donors are insurance companies. Just a thought, but perhaps there is some larger effort to limit liability of businesses everywhere.
A cynic may wonder if the Myocarditis Foundation's focus on heart damage from Covid-19 is a way to boost business for Kiniksa, and to deflect attention from the long term effects of these vaccines. With so much money at stake, it's hard to write off any possibility.
Looking through the tweets and publications of the Myocarditis Foundation, they never seem to address the elephant in the room: how many recent cases of heart problems are caused by these vaccines?

Recent Expenses, Source Countries Of People Entering Canada Illegally
Even though the mainstream press has largely stopped covering the issue, people are still coming into Canada illegally, and we are still covering their expenses.
While our Government and media routinely distract with fear-porn about a non-existent virus, the important issue of border security seems to have disappeared. Admittedly, it has been neglected here on this site as well.
In any event, let's look at some recent information about the costs associated with this virtue signaling. Keep in mind, this is not a complicated issue. Governments could put a stop to this problem overnight if they wanted to. The only reasonable conclusion is that they want to "appear" to be helpless, while ensuring this continues.

Some of these grants are worth a look in closer detail. Keep in mind, this is just what's getting flagged by "irregular". There is most likely more money coming from other sources.
With the International Organization for Migration, it looks like we are handing out cash to facilitate the illegal movement of people. It doesn't seem like prevention at all.
To enhance awareness of key communities in Central America of the risks associated with irregular pathways of migration and of the options available for regular migration, including to Canada;
To strengthen capacity of local government agencies and stakeholders in the target countries to develop information campaign strategies to better inform communities on safe and regular migration pathways and risks of irregular migration.
As one example (albeit a small one), Canadian taxpayers sent $50,000 to Costa Rica. The idea was to discourage them from coming illegally, but to inform them of the litany of methods to enter Canada legally.
This grant will support UNODC to strengthen the migration management capacity of Nigeria through technical assistance in the areas of national migration /immigration policies and procedures, deterring irregular migration, and improving data collection and analysis related to human trafficking and migrant smuggling.
Another grant sent $1.2 million to Nigeria, to combat human smuggling and trafficking. At least that was the stated goal. However, consider the large numbers of Nigerians simply coming across the border from the United States, it seems more like we just subsidized their travel.
In fact, Nigerians have been the largest group to enter Canada illegally over the last few years.
Total 59,384 22,591 16,152 17,555
Nigeria 16,187 4,120 6,777 4,658
Haiti 9,236 1,861 4,205 2,655
Columbia 3,425 1,269 420 1,599
Pakistan 2,343 918 505 800
Democratic Republic of Congo 2,094 362 292 1,328
Note: This doesn't count withdrawn and abandoned claims.
All of this since 2017, according to the IRB. People can just stroll through the border (and this happens often) at Roxham Road. A serious country would turn them away, not shell out millions for locals to feed and house them.
The United States is such a dangerous country, we are told. However, they get tens of thousands (or more) of asylum claims every year. Strange that people are so willing to flock to an unsafe place. Unless of course, this is all about shopping around for better benefits and living conditions.
Despite all the talk about the border being closed with the U.S., that isn't true at all. People are still able to come in and pretend to be refugees. The only real difference is that Roxham Road has been converted into a normal border port, and is processing illegal aliens.
As a sign of where things are heading, consider this recent announcement. Refugee claimants (people waiting for a hearing), who have accumulated enough hours working in health care can apply to stay. This seems to also apply to people who entered the country illegally. There seems to be no standards in who we let into this field.
This applies to both pending and failed (yes failed) asylum applicants. If they have enough hours, they can apply for permanent residence. The hours required is the same as for health care workers on visas: (120 between March and August 2020, and either 750 hours or 30 hour/week for 6 months).
It's a bit of a meme that we have doctors, scientists and engineers flooding the borders. Apparently, this is what's actually happening.
At a time when health care workers are being terminated for refusing to take the experimental shots, a replacement work force is coming in. The catch seems to be a lack of concern for bodily autonomy. This problem is likely to just get worse.
More to come on this long neglected topic.

Kape Technologies Buying Up VPN Services, VPN Review Sites
It's fairly common these days to have VPNs (virtual privacy networks) for both business and personal computer use. But what about the companies who offer these services? How much data do they save, and what happens if they get bought about by another provider? Will the same terms and conditions be honoured for previous customers?
True, this broke a while ago, but is worth a mention for the long term security and privacy issues. Unfortunately, internet privacy is just assumed by far too many people.
The site restoreprivacy.com put a considerable amount of work into this article. They've compiled quite the reference list. Rather than rehashing everything, go visit their site for more information.
A few of the points listed are these:
2017: Crossrider purchases CyberGhost VPN for $10 million
2018: Crossrider changes name to "Kape"
2018: Kape purchases Zenmate VPN for $5 million
2019: Kape purchases Private Internet Access for $127 million
In May 2021, news broke that Kape had purchased a company called Webselenese. Like Kape, Webselenese also operates out of Israel and runs the websites vpnMentor.com and Wizcase.com.
2021: Kape purchases ExpressVPN for $936 million by far the largest VPN acquisition to date
VPNs do have legitimate purposes and make an enormous difference in protecting people online. However, no company is truly invulnerable.
How do we know that a VPN company is what it claims to be, and not a front for intelligence gathering? Such an operation would put Facebook to shame in terms of its capabilities.
Beyond privacy rights, there are also property rights to think about. If a person or company publishes content, and then ads are inserted (without consent), is that not interference? If content doesn't reach its destination as it should, it can have financial consequences.
A few ideas to think about:
-Consider different browsers, 1 for sensitive use, another for more general use
-Have multiple encryption methods
-Think twice about sending certain material at all, which should be commonsense
-Talk in person, and avoid technology where possible
-Research who actually owns your VPN service
-Be prepared to walk away if needed
Yes, there is the argument that "if you aren't doing anything wrong, you have nothing to hide". However, there's nothing wrong with people wanting to keep their personal lives private.
While this is a bit different from the normal subjects, it's worthwhile to think about the long term impacts of your online data. Also, with the creeping authoritarianism and medical tyranny (for your safety of course), Governments could very well get in on this. One of the consequences of limiting public gatherings is that it drives people online, where it's much easier to monitor their content.

I'm obviously a huge advocate for professional photography, because it's part of who I am. I see professional photography as an investment in the physical evidence of your memories. We live in a digital world of photo-obsessed people, yet we put so little value on taking the time to have professional photos taken.
When you look back on your life, what kinds of images do you want your children, grand-children, and great-grandchildren to see? A poorly taken cell phone shot, or a beautifully lit and artistically styled photo? Your senior portraits are a time to showcase you and your personality….your style, what you like, etc.
Below is a side-by-side comparison from Alex's amazing senior session! On the left is a cell phone shot, on the right is a photo taken by yours truly! Which photo would you want to showcase your senior year?
For more information on booking your senior portraits with Courtney Hathaway Photography, please visit the main website at ww.courtneyhathaway.com.
I've been looking forward to Karen & Jason's wedding from the moment they booked me, because Duck Woods Country Club is one of my favorite venues! We met up in early spring for their Engagement Session in Downtown Manteo, and I love how laid back and relaxed they both are….which makes my job so much easier. The weather could not have been more beautiful for their wedding day, and despite a few random rain sprinkles, we had the most gorgeous light for their bride and groom photos out on the green.

The surprising 'Focus' is slick, clever fun
Written & Directed by Glenn Ficarra & John Requa
The best con artists let the rube have fun while they're being hustled. The wonderful new scam-fest, Focus, has learned this lesson well. Of course, none of the scams hold up to later scrutiny, but they're fun as hell when you're in the thick of it. Like a simplified Mamet thriller hopped up on Out of Sight juice, Focus breezes by on the confident charm of Will Smith and a clever script that pays off each slight-of-hand with a masterful reveal. So far, this is easily the most entertaining Hollywood film of 2015.
Nicky (Will Smith) is one cool customer. He's a lifelong grifter who knows that emotion is the enemy of precision. "Love will get you killed in this game," he tells his insanely gorgeous new protégé Jess (Margot Robbie). That sounds good in theory, but matters of the heart are unpredictable, especially when a hottie like Jess keeps challenging your discipline. Instead of getting bogged down in a lackluster love affair, however, the thrilling first act takes us to the Super Bowl in New Orleans, where football isn't the only game in town. Nicky and his crew hustle their way to millions in a stylish montage that will have you nervously reaching for your wallet. This sets the stage for a series of increasingly elaborate scams involving a super-secret racecar formula, a couple of double-crosses, and plenty of sexy time.
Unlike the overly-smug 2013 con artist flick, Now You See Me, Focus understands that the con is always secondary to the artist. Here, we get just enough of Nicky's backstory, including the antics of his derelict father, to lay an emotional foundation for the turmoil to come. This eliminates the need for characters to deliberately withhold information just so they can fool us later (aka: cheating). Each scam hinges on a character's foibles, even if those foibles were engineered for the scam itself. We're told, for instance, that Nicky is a compulsive gambler, but we aren't sure if that's a real vice or just part of the façade. It isn't until the hustle unfolds that we see the full picture. Time and time again the filmmakers construct these puzzles, and each time the solution delivers a satisfying conclusion.

The veteran writer-director tandem of Glenn Ficarra and John Requa deserve a huge amount of the credit for their film's success. Like any good ruse, holding our attention without making things too obvious is a delicate balancing act. Their visual style is all about the steely cool; fixing our focus on the gorgeous cinematography of Xavier Pérez Grobet that harkens back to some of Michael Mann's best crime thrillers. Tight shots and close-ups keep us curious about what's happening on the periphery. Focus also features some amazing sound mixing, with ambient noises expertly woven into the funk-laced soundtrack (listen for the screeching tires that echo into the following scene before gradually blending into the backing score). Everything is designed to create a hip, retro-vibe without making things too washed out or grainy; to seamlessly meld a classic hustle with some modern pizazz.
Ficarra and Requa use sound and visual elements to give Focus an unrelenting pace that compensates for a clear lack of dramatic urgency in the script. There are no ticking time bombs or artificial deadlines, just the methodical unwinding of a carefully-constructed artifice. Each meticulous detail is placed strategically throughout the script, challenging you to find its proper context within the larger story. This is a lean, economical script that takes you to the expected destination in a wholly unexpected way. If the script has a central flaw it's the character of Jess, who shines in the first act only to recede into a passive object of desire for the remainder of the film. She is expertly positioned as Nicky's primary adversary, but those avenues are never fully explored. This limits the stakes of Focus, making it more of a playful diversion than a full-fledged rollercoaster.

Self-indulgent missteps like After Earth have made it easy to dismiss Will Smith, but there is no denying his star power here. Focus gives him the perfect vehicle to flash his rambunctious smile while still forcing him to earn his paycheck. The assertive, witty dialogue allows him to move convincingly between disarming charm and startling nihilism. His brutal deconstruction of the female psyche, for instance, feels darker than anything he's done before. We also get strong supporting performances from Adrian Martinez as Nicky's gregarious inside man, BD Wong as a high-stakes adventurer, and a hilariously vulgar turn from Gerald McRaney as the film's de facto villain. Robbie is serviceable as Smith's romantic obsession, though their smoldering chemistry never truly ignites in Clooney-Lopez fashion. There's no deny the camera absolutely loves her, but Robbie's acting chops remain dubious at best. Still, this is Smith's film and he never lets it out of his sight.
Focus is a stylish film that injects plenty of substance to keep you invested in its story. Sadly, if the atrocious trailers and television spots are any indication, the studios have no clue how to market it. You have comedy, action, thrills, romance, and a clever script that demands your attention; difficult to encapsulate in a 30-second teaser. Focus will succeed or fail based on word-of-mouth and a willingness to give Smith a chance at redemption. It's a chance you won't regret taking, even though you'll leave the theater clinging to your purse.

Q: How to manage dependencies for javaagent? I am using elastic apm agent for monitoring, I have to download the apm-agent.jar and included it in my start entry point like java -javaagent:/path/to/apm-agent.jar app.jar.
The problem is I have to manually download the apm-agent.jar, is there a way that I can configure the apm agent in my Gradle dependencies? and then refer to the path of the jar file that was downloaded by gradle in the Dockerfile?
What is the proper way of dependency management for jar files like java agent?

A: Are you not building a custom Dockerfile and you could just add it there (using wget or curl probably)?
If you really want a build dependency, https://search.maven.org/artifact/co.elastic.apm/elastic-apm-agent/1.7.0/jar should be what you want.
PS: IMO it's a feature that this is only a runtime dependency and you can just add, remove, change it independently of your application; unless you want to do some custom instrumentation.

2. As stated by WhatsApp in its recent blog post, it is sharing your phone number with Facebook to "improve your Facebook ads and products experiences." This doesn't mean that you will start seeing advertisements on your WhatsApp app. But, you will start receiving more relevant ads on Facebook and get better friend suggestions.
4. WhatsApp has stated that your number will be shared with the 'Facebook family of companies' – which most likely includes other Facebook acquired companies such as Instagram and VR firm Oculus Rift.
• Uncheck the green box (fig 2).
• Unchecking means that you do not want WhatsApp to share your number and other data for Facebook ads and product-related purposes. Tap on 'Agree' (fig 3).
If you have already agreed to the new terms and conditions, you still have 30-days to reverse your decision.
Note: If you do not see this option under Settings > Account, there's no need to panic. It means that you haven't updated to the latest version or you are yet to receive the notification about the new terms and conditions.
6. We need to understand that the above "opt-out" procedure is partial. This only prevents WhatsApp from sharing your data for Facebook ads and product-related purposes. However, your data will still be shared for other purposes which the company puts as "improving infrastructure and delivery systems, understanding how our services or theirs are used, securing systems, and fighting spam, abuse, or infringement activities".
7. This data-sharing update does not affect your communication on WhatsApp (messages, photos, videos, voice messages, and calls) which continue to be encrypted. This means that they can only be viewed by you and the person you are sending them to.
8. Users who have agreed to the new terms and conditions still have 30-days to express their disagreement. Once this window expires, they won't be able to opt out.
9. WhatsApp hasn't provided a comprehensive list of the types of user data it intends to share with Facebook nor anything about how Facebook will be using this data.
10. WhatsApp will continue to be ad-free.
But what if you don't have a Facebook account?
Your number will still be shared with Facebook even if you are not on the social networking website. But a WhatsApp spokesperson has stated that even if Facebook has your number, it is of use because you don't have an account there. Your number will not be used to create an account on your behalf.
We will be keeping track of this development and update this post accordingly.
If you think this post is helpful, share it with your friends and peers.
Previous postINFOGRAPHIC: How can SMS Spam Harm You?
Thank you QUICK HEAL. I have already agreed to the new terms and conditions by mistake but after reading this article now opt out of this using Option B. Thanks again.
thanx to QH for alerting me because i have already accepted the terms but now i opt out after knowing it.
thank you . though i have deactivated my whats-app account yesterday. app is still in my phone.
But this is not harmful right ? It only betters the Facebook ads and allows you to more relevant things and more people that you actually know .
If it is somehow harmful please explain.
Thanx for the the useful update!
Thanks Quick Heal and Rajib Singha for this wonderful piece of information.
Yes, I did agree to the policy and now after knowing from you I preferred to opt out from setting. Thank you Quick Heal and Rajib singha.
A very thorough and helpful blog and suggestion .
why ? first windows 10 , now facebook and so many more companies . why do they intrude this much privacy ?
Will Whatsapp share my account info even if I don't posses a facebook account?
Thank you. I have read through your entire message and opted out of Whatsapp sharing my contact info. Really helpful. Thanks a lot.
Thank you very much Quick Heal for the article. I have already agreed to the new terms and conditions without reading them by mistake. But after reading this article now I uncheck the share my info. box with the help of Option B. Thanks again.
After reading this post I went to 'Account' & found out that I had already accidentally agreed to sharing my number ! Good Heavens ! Day light piracy !!
Now I have fixed that thanks to this update !
I am not holding FACE BOOK account.
Fig 1 says " to continue using WhatsApp it is imperative to agree to the terms and conditions by 25 September 2016″.
Does it mean; if one doesn't agree, WhatsApp service will be discontinued on that persons mobile?
To use any software or hardware, the user has to agree to the Terms and Conditions laid out by the publisher. And this applies to WhatsApp as well.
Thank you Rajib for this post. I have checked with the update and done what you suggest.
That's why I love Quick Heal.
You are doing a great service to the masses.
i want whats app donload but i am regular try but but i am not sure/successful that means how are come to the whats app download…..
I am using QUICK HEAL my PC. when I start the computer my language programmer is not working or showing (Shri Lipi 5.1 32 bit) just like a handicap so i cant any work or cant do any language job so please what can i do and give best suggestion. Please…..
Thank you for writing in. Our support engineers would gladly help you with this issue. Please visit http://bit.ly/QHChat to chat with us online. You can also raise a ticket at http://bit.ly/Askus and we will get back to you at the earliest.
Thank you Rajib and Quick Heal.
Is there any way to opt out of sharing info with facebook on a new install of whatsapp? I opted out, but then my phone crashed and when I tried to reinstall whatsapp there is no longer an option to opt out. Does this mean I have no choice now? This is such a betrayal. I do not want Facebook to store metadata about my relationships and who I associate with.
QUICK HEAL ANTI VIRUS IS EXTREMLY VERY SECURING ANTIVIRUS FOR ANY TIPE OF PC/LAPTOP/MOBILE/ANY GADGETS.
I was already unchecked the sharing option, but even thanks for providing detailed information.
Thank you Rajib Singha I like quick heal health and soul of my phone is important that you are great God bless you.
Thanks for information. I have done it.
Thank you qiick heal its very very important for me and family ,lots thanks again .
This is very nice idea, which may may be spreaded to facebook regularly . So that all become aware of that. I do not use Whats App in my PC.The application to download the offer came but i totally turned down.Thank you for the valuable hints.


You really do give up a lot to hold down a job, don't you?
Thread: You really do give up a lot to hold down a job, don't you?
ANM, I think you touched on the "risk" of acting according to our conscience. That's where I and my friends have hesitated in the past, because I think the risk is real.
Remember the joke going around when Obama was first running for president: the employer declares that if Obama is elected, he will go into the company parking lot and lay off those employees with Obama bumper stickers. My then-coworkers thought that joke was pretty funny. Har har har.
But unfortunately it's no joke to many who completely depend on an employer's paycheck. Now with social media a prospective employer is checking for everything they can find about you online. Are there photos of you in the latest anti gun violence march? Maybe your prospective employer is a member of the NRA and now you're off the list of potential employees no matter how skilled and experienced you are. Do you work for a local utility but want to advocate for more renewable energy? Better skip writing that letter to the editor if you want to keep your job.
In the old days they had to have Pinkerton thugs check on you, now it's done with a couple of clicks on a keyboard.
Do I think it's constraining people's right to say what's on their conscience? Yes, absolutely.
Well, there's a good argument for universal basic income! Much simpler than unemployment, and It keeps you going while you look for a new job more in line with your principles and your former employer deals with the boycott you created when you told everyone on social media why you were fired.
Agree about UBI. And I think it's more likely than not that we'll see it here in the U.S., probably not in my lifetime, but inevitably because of the job losses due to the rise of Artificial Intelligence. There simply won't be enough paying jobs no matter what, and our society will need to provide the basics.
Will be interesting to see if that allows people to feel more free in their civic and political activity.
Sure if we get to the point where technology has taken away so many jobs then it may be necessary. Right now I don't see it as helpful.
I understand one can argue there is a need for work that is not being funded now, that's probably true, and government could fund this, but if neither government nor industry step up to fund it ... then what are we left with? Still a UBI seems an approach likely to fail, as it might all just go into inflation (rising rents, rising healthcare costs etc.), reducing costs of basic necessities seems likelier to succeed.
The great thing about a UBI is that it would free up peoples' time so that they can agitate for a bigger UBI.
Interesting. Is that like corporations lobbying for more and greater tax exemptions, aka loopholes? Of course, they "lobby" with envelopes of cash so I guess that's not "agitating."
But we'll have a chance to see UBI in action as Finland begins a trial.
You know Economics and High Finance have never been my strong suit, but from a Free Market, Capitalist society standpoint, where does the money come from? And what are the expectations for the recipients?
And what are the expectations for the recipients?
They could have expectations and create jobs for the recipients but that's not the way they decided to go. Perhaps they figured a UBI was just more promising. Sometimes I have heard of things requiring volunteering etc. but that's usually unemployment type programs (in other countries) rather than UBI type.
I would say that in one case it would be people trying to persuade government to give them more of other peoples' money, and in the other case it would be the other people trying to persuade government not to take as much.

Q: Autogenerated primary key in postgresql with clsql I'm trying to make a simple database with Common Lisp ORM. I use PostgreSQL and CLSQL. I could create classes and generate tables, but it doesn't work when I want to insert a value without primary key in order to get a generated value. It seems that it works with mysql databases. Is it possible to do that with PostgreSQL?
I define the primary key as:
(id :db-kind :key
    :db-type "serial"
    :db-constraints (:not-null :unique)
    :type integer
    :initarg :id)

And I get this error:
While accessing database #<POSTGRESQL-DATABASE localhost/cl_ormex/postgres OPEN {1004FCC403}>
  with expression "SELECT currval ('NIL')":
   Error 42P01 / relation "nil" does not exist
   LINE 1: SELECT currval ('NIL')
                           ^
 has occurred.
   [Condition of type SQL-DATABASE-DATA-ERROR]

I use PostgreSQL 9.5.2 with SBCL 1.3.1.
edit
Here's an example:
(require 'clsql)
(defpackage :orm-ex (:use :cl :clsql))
(in-package :orm-ex)
(file-enable-sql-reader-syntax)
(enable-sql-reader-syntax)
(setf *default-caching* nil)
(connect '("localhost" "examp" "postgres" "postgres")
     :database-type :postgresql)

(def-view-class person ()
  ((id :db-kind :key
       :db-type "serial"
       :db-constraints (:not-null :unique)
       :type integer
       :initarg :id
       :accessor person-id)
   (name :type (varchar 30)
     :initarg :name
     :accessor person-name)))

(defparameter person1
  (make-instance 'person
         :name "Matt"))

(dolist (c '(person)) (create-view-from-class c))
(update-records-from-instance person1)

I don't really understand this error, but the row seems to be inserted in the database.

A: From Loving Lisp by Mark Watson - db-constraints need to be defined with :auto-increment.
Note - the book version as of today (25/10/2019) is not correct, but the downloaded code is:
(clsql:def-view-class article ()
  ((id
    :db-kind :key
    :db-constraints (:auto-increment :not-null :unique)
    :type integer
    :initarg :id)
   (uri
    :accessor uri
    :type (string 60)
    :initarg :uri)
   (title
    :accessor title
    :type (string 90)
    :initarg :title)
   (text
    :accessor text
    :type (string 500)
    :nulls-ok t
    :initarg :text)))

A: It seems that this will not work. it has a todo file that says this:

*

*Test that ":db-kind :key" adds an index for that key. This is complicated by  different backends showing autogenerated primary key
  in different ways.

So maybe it doesn't work with Postgres. I believe that you have many possibilities.
Use other frameworks a little bit more updated like cl-dbi, take a look here:

cl-dbi provides a uniform interface to the various database server-specific libraries (cl-postgres, cl-mysql, etc.). SxQL provides a DSL for building safe, automatically parametrized SQL queries.
There are two fairly complete ORMs: Crane, by yours truly, and Integral, by the author of cl-dbi.

  Consolidation:

  Discourage using anything other than cl-dbi.

  Future Work:

  Bindings for other database systems, e.g. Oracle, exist. Writing drivers for cl-dbi would be the best course of action and help consolidation.

I find easy to generate ids that can be ordered in ascending or descending order by creation time easily with timestamp, or also you can use generators or take in account the last number you insert
but this will do trick, the universal time and also add a random number, for creating many entities at the same time and having a low rate of collision
(format nil "~12,'0d-~6,'0d" (get-universal-time) (random 1000000))


Patients navigation/wayfinding inside hospitals and medical facilities is one of the problems of modern healthcare. The patients' frustration resulting from being lost in the facility is ranked among the top complaints made by visitors of healthcare institutions. Patients and guests, often under the influence of stress, have problems moving around the facility and reaching the required destination. This problem mainly affects people visiting the facility for the first time. The lack of proper patient management systems leads to a loss of time among employees who have to provide guidance to patients instead of focusing on a designated task.
Ineffective communication/wayfinding systems also lead to a large number of unrealized or delayed visits and require the involvement of additional personnel to ensure the protection of restricted areas. The use of indoor localization solutions based on Bluetooth and LTE M allows you to solve these problems. Many hospitals also face the problem of locating their key assets. Wheelchairs, X-ray machines and thousands of other medical appliances must be easily accessible to staff.
Asset identification and tracking systems based on Bluetooth 5 and LTE M technologies enable detecting, identifying and locating medical devices or personnel members in real time, as well as registering the location of these resources over time.
In addition to helping staff locate equipment, asset tracking systems based on these technologies help outlets optimize the use and distribution of inventory (eg by collecting and storing data of the location of equipment over time).
The presentation on #LSOS18 aims to present the possibilities of using localization systems based on Bluetooth and LTE M technologies to improve the operations of healthcare facilities. The purpose of the presentation will be in particular the presentation of applications of systems supporting communication with the patient as well as the indoor location and management of key assets.
We are currently running pilot implementations with various healthcare institutions around the globe and we'd be interested in finding suitable partners in Poland that would be interested in implementing wayfinding/asset tracking solutions in their healthcare facilities.

Former NFL player dies awaiting trial in Kansas prison
January 15, 2022 admin 0 Comments former nfl, former nfl playoff
by: Makenzie Koch, Nexstar Media Wire
LEAVENWORTH, Kan. (WDAF) – A former Kansas City Chiefs football player died Thursday while being held in a Leavenworth prison, records show.
Saousoalii P. Siavii Jr., better known as Junior Siavii, was charged in federal court in 2019 with three counts of illegally possessing firearms. He was being held in the U.S. Penitentiary in Leavenworth awaiting trial.
Details about his death were not closest obtainable.
Siavii was drafted by the Chiefs in 2004 in the second round as the 36th pick overall. He was later cut from the team in 2006.
The defensive tackle later signed with the Dallas Cowboys in 2008 and was with the team off and on by 2010. The Seattle Seahawks then claimed him off waivers in 2010. He set a career-high in tackles with the Seahawks before he was injured and then released in 2011.
EAST RUTHERFORD, NJ – DECEMBER 17: Defensive tackle, Junior Siavii #94 of the Kansas City Chiefs dives to make the fumble recovery in front of quarterback Eli Manning #10 of the New York Giants during the first quarter of the game at Giants Stadium on December 17, 2005 in East Rutherford, New Jersey. (Photo by Nick Laham/Getty Images)
A criminal complaint filed in 2019 alleged that Siavii had been arrested on three occasions in which he was in possession of both illegal drugs and loaded firearms. Under federal law, it's illegal for anyone who is an unlawful drug user to be in possession of any firearms or ammunition.
Court documents say police were called to a parking lot on U.S. 40 Highway where Siavii was getting out of a stolen means. Officers said Siavii overlooked their commands, and an officer deployed his Taser on Siavvi twice.
Police reported finding a loaded pistol, ammunition and other drugs in Siavii's possession. The complaint cites other incidents in which Siavii was arrested while in possession of illegal drugs and firearms.

Q: How to parse TCP/IP packets from socket in Java? I have InputStream from socket InputStream sin = socket.getInputStream();. I want to parse TCP/IP packets from this socket to get destination host and port.
How I can to do it?
Any advice?
UPD
When printing out everything of the socket using:
bytes = sin.readAllBytes();
System.out.println("-> " + sin);
System.out.println("-> -> " + sin.read());
for (int i = 0; i < bytes.length; i++) {
    System.out.println("++ -> " + bytes[i]);
}

I have something like that:
-> java.net.SocketInputStream@36d64342
-> -> -1
++ -> 71
++ -> 69
++ -> 84
++ -> 32
++ -> 104
++ -> 116

It's a piece of a byte array that i print.
UPD2
When i convert bytes to char i have this one:

A: To get the host and port use
InetSocketAddress remoteAddress = (InetSocketAddress)socket.getRemoteSocketAddress();
String host = remoteAddress.getHostName();
int port = remoteAddress.getPort();

The main thing you can do with the input stream from a socket is read it for data
If you have String data being transmitted, you can use a BufferedReader pretty easily
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(socket.getInputStream()));
for(String line = reader.readLine(); line != null; line = reader.readLine())
    //do stuff

How To Make Headphones Louder (Bluetooth, Android, PC, iPhone & More)

How to Make Headphones Louder: 4 Easy Steps
1. Adjust Playback Settings
2. Try A Headphone Amplifier
3. Use a Volume Increase App or Adjust EQ Settings
4. Get A Pair of Sound Isolation Headphones
Not much is worse than sitting down to enjoy your favorite playlist, only to be met with one of the most annoying issues on the planet -- your headphones aren't loud enough.
Now, let it be said that this post isn't for people who want to blast their eardrums out.
Obligatory disclaimer: Do not listen to music too loud! You can permanently damage your hearing!!
Great, now that we got that out of the way, let's start troubleshooting ways to make your headphones louder.
Adjust your playback settings - The specifics of this will vary depending on what device you're listening
Investing in a headphone amplifier
Use a volume adjusting app, or adjust all volume levels in your EQ settings
Invest in noise isolating headphones
Depending on the device you're playing audio on, you may be able to mess around with your max volume settings to increase the volume output of your device. One of the most common reasons people ask, "Why aren't my headphones loud enough?" is due to a simple configuration that caps the volume limit.
To keep things simple, let's cover how to fix this on Apple and Android phones.
For Apple, you can check this setting by going to the main settings menu and selecting "Music."
From there, scroll down until you see a section for "Playback."
Here you'll see an option for "Volume Limit."
You can adjust your max volume on the following screen. If your headphones are strangely quiet and you're using an Apple device, there's a good chance its due to this setting putting a volume cap.
Okay now let's check out a similar setting for Android.
First, go into your settings, and select > Sounds > Volume.
From here, you're able to see all of the volume levels for different functions. To adjust the setting for music, you're going to want to make adjustments to the "media" setting.
If these settings are all fine, it could be an issue with the power output of the headphones.
In essence, headphones are just speakers, and all speakers require an amplifier. With smaller headphones, space can be a huge limiting factor. The smaller the amp, the lower the volume output.
Related Content: How headphones work
If you have a set of underpowered headphones, your volume and sound quality will be limited. At "max" volume, you'll hear distortion, and the headphones won't be as loud as you might expect them to when you increase the volume.
A standalone headphone amp can help with this! While we don't want to assume you're willing to buy an external device to boost your headphone volume (why not just buy better headphones, right?), we're just throwing the option out there.
Now, headphone amps don't work in every case. They are generally only for higher quality over-ear headphones. It is reasonably safe to assume that if you're using earbuds, they are already sending out the max volume.
If you have over-ear headphones and you're curious about buying an amp, what you'll want to do is check the headphone impedance.
Headphones with a high impedance level (we're talking like 300ohms) are going to need a little boost to move the drivers. This is generally found in planar magnetic headphones, which are pretty popular right now. If you're using a more efficient set of headphones, say ones in the 20-25 ohms range, a headphone amp won't do much.
If you're listening on a phone and can download apps, you're in luck. There are a handful of apps for both Apple and Android that can help with headphones not being loud enough.
Take a look at the app store for the app with the best reviews. Since this changes so often, we aren't going to recommend any singular app outright, they all have similar functions.
You may also want to consider checking the EQ settings on your phone itself. Sometimes these settings are "optimized" by the manufacturer but don't suit your specific listening preferences. Play around with the settings until you get something you like.
Again, we don't want to push a new pair of headphones on you, but if you're working with a crappy pair of headphones, it doesn't matter how much you fiddle with the settings, you're still going to have a crappy pair of headphones.
If you want to put on your headphones and drown out the world, you should look into a pair of sound isolating headphones. With these types of headphones, you don't have to listen as such high volumes to get the same immersive listening experience.
With sound isolating headphones, you also run less of a risk of damaging your hearing because you don't have to listen at such high volumes to be satisfied.
Headphones that aren't loud enough are a super common problem. We get dozens of emails of people asking us how to fix these issues, so we decided to make a whole post about it.
Did any of these tips help you? Let us know in the comments section below!

In 1948 the Universal Declaration of Human Rights promised comprehensive social protection for each human being: 'a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being of himself and of his family, including food, clothing, housing and medical care and necessary social services, and the right to security in the event of unemployment, sickness, disability, widowhood, old age or other lack of livelihood in circumstances beyond his control.' Seventy years later, this pledge is far from fulfilled: An estimated 71% of the world's population – some 5.2 billion people – lack adequate social protection, while 55% have no coverage at all (ILO, 2017). Coverage gaps are highest in sub-Saharan Africa, in Asia and in the Middle East and North Africa (ILO 2016). By a tragic paradox, it is those with the greatest need who have the least access to social protection.

Interesting in the philosophy of the elements, there is a fifth element called the Ether or Aether. In the chinese system it is a bit different, but the Greek, Hindu and other traditions, the fifth element is Ether/Aether. In the Greek mystery schools this fifth element was only taught to the Initiates, while the common people were only told of the four elements.
While the Ether was declared by science (Michelson–Morley_experiment) to be non-existent and Einstein admitted the it was one of his greatest mistakes (related to his cosmological constant), in modern unification theories, the Ether is returning as the mysterious dark energy pervading most of space and propelling all the galaxies away from one another.
So again, perhaps the ancients understood something well ahead of their time.
It may be a stretch to speculate, but in our discussion the fifth element of health here on earth is the frequencies and energies of the earth, namely the Schumann resonant frequencies, and the frequencies of the Earth's magnetic field.
In Yuri Gagarin's historic flight into space, he was an instant icon for all of history as the first man to travel around the earth in orbit.
But in only 1 hour and 48 minutes, Yuri Gagarin returned from space with bone loss, depressed metabolism, depression, muscle weakness and overall sickness. In fact he died at a young age.
It was discovered that he was missing an essential element needed for human survival, electromagnetic energy of the earth. Zero field studies and many experiments on earth have proven that we need the earth's magnetic energy to survive. We take it for granted just like a fish in water takes for granted it needs water to live. This is because no matter where you go on earth, you will always get some amount of earth magnetic energy (unless you go into space or go inside a chamber that blocks the earth's fields.
Since this first flight in space, every subsequent space launch has included Schumann generators that mimic the Earth's energy.
It turns out that pulsed magnetic frequencies act like a whole body battery recharger by pumping and priming your cells.
The 70 trillion cells in your body are like little wet cell batteries that operate ideally at a voltage of around 70 millivolts. The cell membrane acts like a one-way rectifier that converts the earth's magnetic pulse into electrical potential energy, which "charge's your cells".
If We Live on Earth, Why Do We Need Electromagnetic Therapy Devices?
This is a very common question. Why is it that we need pulsed magnetic therapy, if we can just go outside and walk barefoot in Nature?
Here is the TWO-FOLD problem we have today which can be summarized as Not Enough of the GOOD and too much of the BAD frequencies.
First, we are not getting enough of the GOOD earth based magnetic energy. This has two parts to it; the first part is that our Earth's magnetic field has been declining over the last 500 years (probably longer) and it is HALF of what it was just 300 years ago. And on top of that, the average American spends 90% of his or her day inside ISOLATED and partially shielded from these healthy frequencies. Add to that all the concrete and steel, rubber soled shoes, rubber tires, isolated mattresses, etc.
In Japan, fibromyalgia is referred to as Magnetic Deficiency Syndrome. So many modern lifestyle problems can be partially linked to not getting enough healthy earth magnetism.
The second part is TOO Much of the BAD. We are simply getting bombarded by dirty electricity or electrosmog everywhere we go. Computers, wi-fi, cell phones, handset phones, microwaves, hairdryers, cell phone towers, etc, etc.
THE SOLUTION: Supplement your body and life with a earth-based pulsed magnetic therapy device.

Clive Lloyd: 50 years of indelible service to West Indies cricket
December 19, 2016 October 23, 2017 / Zaheer's Facts, Lies and Statistics	/ Leave a comment
By Zaheer E. Clarke
Written December 15, 2016
Published December 19, 2016, in The Western Mirror
For 50 years, Clive Lloyd has given indelible and selfless service to West Indies and world cricket. He is a legend in the game of cricket, both inside and beyond the boundary.
Clive Lloyd has given indelible and selfless service to West Indies and world cricket for over 50 years.
Several years ago, as a youngster growing up, eager to learn about the exploits and history of West Indies cricket, my dad handed me a book published in 1983. The book was written by Henderson Dalrymple and titled "50 Great West Indian Test Cricketers". Dalrymple, a West Indian-born English-based journalist, had written for the Yorkshire Post, the New Musical Express and several black publications in the United Kingdom. Though Dalrymple authored and co-authored books on Reggae and Bob Marley – as if I needed more motivation – four words on the front cover of this book on West Indian cricketers would ensure I opened it, and read it, cover to cover. Those four words were "Foreword by Clive Lloyd".
Last week Tuesday marked the 50th anniversary of Clive Hubert Lloyd's debut for West Indies on December 13, 1966. Like his cousin, another West Indian great, Lancelot "Lance" Gibbs, Lloyd was a true West Indian from birth – twice over – being the product of a Barbadian mother and a Guyanese father. Nevertheless, it was Lloyd who would become the towering image of West Indian pride, fervour and unity, and its greatest captain. Like Sir Frank Worrell, another great West Indian captain and statesman before him, Lloyd understood how important winning on the cricket field was to the Caribbean people and his role in achieving the same.

With the 41-year Sepp Blatter-FIFA marriage over and the divorce finally complete, will FIFA's operations improve under new president Gianni Infantino. Or, will it be more of the riddled, Mafia-esque and Byzantine same?

In any love affair gone wrong, there comes a time when both parties must accept the end of their relationship or marriage. Oftentimes, it is best to end things as smoothly as possible, even if the love has been long lost for some time. The longer it takes for the end, the higher the cost and damage to each other's dignity and self-esteem, with ofttimes grave and disastrous consequences to each other's emotional, mental and, in some instances, physical well-being.
Last week, Joseph 'Sepp' Blatter, once the most powerful man in sports and the former president of FIFA, saw his reduced six-year ban and eventual divorce from the sport of football upheld by the Court of Arbitration of Sport (CAS). Continue reading →

Men: Usain Bolt (JAM), Mo Farah (GBR) and Wayde van Niekerk (RSA)
Women: Almaz Ayana (ETH), Elaine Thompson (JAM) and Anita Wlodarczyk (POL)

By the time this is published, the world would have been told the names of the individuals who are the 2016 IAAF Male and Female Athletes of the Year. The finalists on the men's side included our own Jamaican Usain St. Leo Bolt, Britain's long distance king Mo Farah and the South African gazelle Wayde van Niekerk. On the women's side, we had our own Jamaican Elaine Thompson, Ethiopia's new long distance queen Almaz Ayana and the Polish woman of might, Anita Wlodarczyk.
Despite my Jamaican roots and prejudices, I do not believe Usain Bolt and Elaine Thompson should be the worthy winners of this year's awards. Continue reading →

Apply to MBA program w/ no work experience?

I am a returning college student and will be finishing my bachelors degree in general studies, May 2012. Is it a bad idea to apply to MBA programs right after graduation with little to no related work experience?
There is an MBA program at the university I am currently attending. It is required that students w/ undergraduate degrees unrelated to business take one full semester of graduate work before entering the MBA program. No work experience is needed. On the other hand, it is not a highly ranked program. I want to be able to do my job well and have good prospects of career advancement. Should I work for a while before trying to earn my MBA or go ahead apply?
Hi Jennifer37 and welcome to Admissions Boards!
I encourage you to post this to the Ask AdmissionsConsultants thread in the MBA section as they can give you a much more informed answer than I can.
I agree about posting your question in Ask AdmissionsConsultants thread. But to answer your question, its always advisable to have some sort of work experience before applying the MBA Program. All the best!
Don't skip the work experience before going for your MBA. Make sure to research each business school curriculum and see what their policies are on experience. I went to a business school after interning, and don't think I would have succeeded had it not been for that experience.
You can still get into a good MBA program without working experience if your other credential is very strong; however, the problem is that you might not know exactly what you want to pursue in career, so you won't be able to maximize the benefit of a MBA program. It's much better to have work experience.
i went to a MBA Collage after interning . You can immobile find into a high-quality MBA curriculum without effective experience .
