PowerA Introduces The 'Moga' Bluetooth Controller For Android, Coming This Holiday Season

Gaming on Android has come a long way since the early days - we're even starting to see console-quality games show up for certain devices. However, there is one major shortcoming: touch controls, for the most part, are complete crap. They're a little more manageable on a device like a tablet, but they're downright unusable on a smartphone.
The solution? A controller. This is becoming a more and more widely adopted feature, thanks to things like the Zeemote. Additionally, the Tegra 3 processor's kernel offers USB controller support baked-in.
Now, PowerA, a company known for creating gaming accessories, is trying its hand at a new Bluetooth controller for Android. And it looks pretty promising.
As you can see, the Moga offers a neat little pop-out holder for your phone, essentially transforming it into a full-fledged handheld gaming system. There's also a companion app that sorts through your installed games and detects which have support for the controller, allowing you to launch them directly from one location.
So, how much is it going to cost? That's the thing - we don't know yet. PowerA has stated that the Moga should be available before the 2012 holiday season, so we'll likely see pricing information show up in the coming months.

Border Security:
5 Things You Should Know
November 14th, 2018 / By FWD.us
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) recently released the southwest border apprehension numbers for October 2018. There was an increase in the number of apprehensions from the previous month, in large part families from Central America seeking asylum in the United States. It is important to understand these numbers in the context of historical averages, how investments in infrastructure, technology, and personnel have increased security along the border, and most importantly, to recognize changes in the types of immigrants Border Patrol is apprehending. By taking such factors into consideration, and adapting to this change, policy makers will be better able to respond appropriately.
1) Border apprehensions are still near historic lows
Border apprehensions, the primary indicator of attempts to enter the country without authorization, remain at historic lows, down more than 80% from their highs in the early 2000s. In recent years, there has been an increase in families and children from the Northern Triangle attempting to claim asylum in the US after fleeing violence and persecution in their home countries. In the vast majority of instances, these individuals are presenting themselves at ports of entry and to border patrol agents–not trying to evade Border Patrol. For national and homeland security reasons, not to mention humanitarian reasons, it is preferable that immigrants seeking asylum present themselves at official ports of entry– instead of trying to enter between ports of entry and diverting Border Patrol resources that should be focused on actual border security threats.
2) The security of our southwest border is stronger than it has ever been.

The security of our southwest border is stronger than it has ever been. Congress has invested tens of billions of dollars over the last two decades to deploy infrastructure, technology, and personnel to secure our southwest border – and this investment has paid off. Not only are apprehensions near all time lows, according to the Trump Administration, the estimated number of undetected unlawful entries fell 93% from 2006 to 2016, the last year of data available.
3) DHS has 91% situational awareness along the border
The deployment of Integrated Fixed Towers (IFT) and other technology along the border provides law enforcement with almost full visibility to stop unlawful entries. In fact, the Trump Administration estimates there is a 91% probability of detection. The combination of technology, existing infrastructure, natural barriers, and the more than 16,500 Border Patrol Agents at the Southwest Border means that it is extremely difficult to enter the country without authorization. On average, a border patrol agent on the southwest border apprehends less than two people per month. There is more infrastructure, technology, and border patrol agents at the southwest border than at any point in history, resulting in fewer attempts of unlawful entries and a higher probability of detection.
4) The increase in families seeking asylum is a new and unique challenge along the Southwest Border
While unlawful entries are near all-time lows, there has been a surge in Family Units (FAMU), particularly from the Northern Triangle countries of Honduras, Guatemala, and El Salvador, attempting to enter the United States, from 39,839 in FY2015 to 107,212 in FY2018. In addition, during the last three years, apprehensions of people from countries other than Mexico (OTMs) surpassed the number of apprehensions of individuals from Mexico. The increase of unaccompanied children (UACs) and FAMU from Central America seeking asylum in the US poses a unique challenge to border enforcement because generally, they are fleeing violence in their home countries and seeking asylum in the US because they fear returning to their home country. Under US law and treaty obligations, they are treated differently than economic migrants who attempt to enter the country unlawfully and are subject to expedited removal from the United States.
5) The physical border is only one part of border security
To truly deal with migration at our southern border, we need a whole-of-government approach. We must ensure our immigration system is properly staffed to quickly and fairly adjudicate immigration cases that are currently backlogged years, utilize Alternatives to Detention (ATD) for those in immigration custody, and reject the false choice between family separation and indefinite family detention. To deal with the root causes of mass migration, we should provide international aid— monetary and otherwise– to improve economic and security conditions in Central America. We must also re-establish and expand the Central American Minors program, which allowed in-country processing for Honduran, Salvadoran, and Guatemalan minors seeking refuge in the US. Moreover, the US should provide support to the Mexican government to humanely process through its legal system those who are participating in the caravan currently working its way through Mexico. We also need to fix our immigration system comprehensively to provide appropriate legal channels for individuals to apply for entry into the US and deal with the underlying push and pull factors that are driving the current increase in migration.

Both of these components define a budget. A budget is a financial plan that takes into account how much income is earned for a set period of time and what expenditures are for the same set period of time.
There is a definite negative connotation to the word debt. It feels like a heavy weight if you have debt. Am I right?
It is your responsibility, as a single person, married couple, head of household, to determine how much money you will bring in for the month.
