DHS Revises Regs on H-1B1, E-3, CW-1 Nonimmigrants and Certain EB-1 Immigrants
In a final rule effective February 16, 2016, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is amending its regulations affecting highly skilled workers in the nonimmigrant classifications for specialty occupations from Chile, Singapore (H-1B1), and Australia (E-3); the immigrant classification for employment-based first preference (EB-1) outstanding professors and researchers; and nonimmigrant workers in the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI)-Only Transitional Worker (CW-1) classification.
Specifically, the final rule amends DHS regulations to:
* Include H-1B1 and principal E-3 classifications in the list of classes of foreign nationals authorized for employment incident to status with a specific employer. This means that
H-1B1 and principal E-3 nonimmigrants can work for a sponsoring employer without having to apply separately for employment authorization;
* Authorize continued employment with the same employer for up to 240 days for an H-1B1 or principal E-3 nonimmigrant whose status has expired while his or her employer's timely filed extension of stay request remains pending;
* Provide this same continued employment authorization for a CW-1 nonimmigrant whose status has expired while his or her employer's timely filed Form I-129CW, Petition for a CNMI-Only Nonimmigrant Transitional Worker, request for an extension of stay remains pending;
* Include principal E-3 and H-1B1 nonimmigrant classifications in existing regulations on the filing procedures for extensions of stay and change of status requests; and
* Allow employers petitioning for EB-1 outstanding professors and researchers to submit initial evidence comparable to the other forms of evidence already listed in 8 CFR § 204.5(i)(3)(i), much like certain employment-based immigrant categories that already allow for submission of comparable evidence.
DHS said the final rule does not impose any additional costs on employers, workers, or any governmental entity. Further, DHS noted, changing the employment authorization regulations for H-1B1 and E-3 nonimmigrants "makes them consistent with other similarly situated nonimmigrant worker classifications." Additionally, this rule "minimizes the potential of employment disruptions for U.S. employers of H-1B1, E-3, and CW-1 nonimmigrant workers." Finally, DHS expects that this change "will help U.S. employers recruit EB-1 outstanding professors and researchers by expanding the range of evidence that U.S. employers may provide to support their petitions."

Court Delays STEM OPT Ruling, Preserving Current STEM OPT Program
The U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia has accepted the Department of Homeland Security's (DHS) request to modify the court's stay of its ruling that the agency invalidly issued its 2008 rule on STEM OPT (optional practical training for students in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics). The court modified the stay to give DHS an additional 90 days, until May 10, 2016, to re-issue the STEM OPT rule using valid notice-and-comment procedures.
DHS issued a proposed rule on October 19, 2015, and received more than 50,000 comments. The agency persuaded the court that it was working diligently to evaluate those comments and promulgate a final rule, but was unable to do so in time for a new rule to be effective by the February 12, 2016, deadline. The court modified its order to leave the current STEM OPT rule in effect until the new May 10, 2016, deadline.
DHS argued that it needed only the 90-day extension and that it would be able to publish the final rule in time to meet that deadline. The court said it would grant no further extensions.
The plaintiff, Washington Alliance of Technology Workers, said it planned to appeal the extension. The D.C. court's opinion from January 23, 2016, is available here. Its opinion from August 12, 2015 is available here.
OSC Responds to Query on Steps to Follow After Internal I-9 Audit
The Department of Justice's Office of Special Counsel for Immigration-Related Unfair Employment Practices (OSC) recently responded to an attorney who asked how to advise her client following an internal audit of the client's I-9 employment authorization verification forms. The attorney asked specifically what steps the client should take with respect to permanent resident cards (Forms I-551) that the attorney found doubtful, and whether the attorney was obligated to train the client on what to look for in a valid green card or whether such training would be outside the scope of what the employer should be trained to do, since that could take the employer beyond the "reasonable person" standard.
OSC noted that it cannot give an advisory opinion on any particular set of facts, only general guidelines. OSC said that to prevent discrimination, an employer or representative conducting an internal I-9 audit should conduct it in a consistent manner, treating similarly situated employees in a similar manner. Employees should not be treated differently based on citizenship, immigration status, or national origin. For example, an employer should apply the same level of scrutiny to all employees' I-9 documentation and not single out for review the I-9 forms of employees from a particular country or immigration status.
In response to the attorney's specific question about doubtful green cards, OSC referred to joint guidance recently issued by OSC and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), which reminds employers that they are required to accept original I-9 documentation that "reasonably appears to be genuine and to relate to the individual presenting the documentation." If an employer conducting an internal I-9 audit concludes, based on a photocopy, that the document does not appear genuine or reasonably related to the employee, the employer should address its concern with the employee and provide the employee an opportunity to choose a different document to present from the I-9's Lists of Acceptable Documents. However, OSC noted, the employee can also give the employer the originally presented document and, if the employer determines that it appears genuine and reasonably related to the employee, the employer must accept that document and not request additional documents. If the employer, on the other hand, determines that the original document does not appear genuine or reasonably related to the employee, "the employer should provide the employee with an opportunity to choose a different document to present from the Lists of Acceptable Documents."
Regarding whether the attorney's firm must train her client on "what to look for in a valid green card," OSC directed her to ICE guidance.
The OSC's response is available here. The joint OC-ICE guidance referenced in the response, "Guidance for Employers Conducting Internal Employment Eligibility Verification Form I-9 Audits," is available here.
House Holds Oversight Hearings on USCIS, EOIR
The U.S. House of Representatives' Judiciary Committee held oversight hearings in December 2015 on U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) and on the Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR). Leon Rodriguez, USCIS Director, testified at the USCIS hearing. Juan Osuna, EOIR Director, testified at the EOIR hearing.
At the USCIS oversight hearing, Mr. Rodriguez noted that his agency's priorities include, in addition to safety and security issues, implementing the executive actions on immigration announced in November 2014. Those include reducing unauthorized immigration at the border; prioritizing removal of the most dangerous; improving the legal immigration system for families, employers, students, entrepreneurs and workers; and, on a case-by-case basis, considering for deferred action certain undocumented immigrants under two initiatives-Deferred Action for Parents of Americans and Lawful Permanent Residents (DAPA), and expanding the population of individuals eligible for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA). Mr. Rodriguez noted that while DAPA and expanded DACA are on hold pursuant to a court injunction, USCIS and its partners in the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and other departments have been working to implement the other parts of the executive actions. Mr. Rodriguez said that other top priorities were effective management of the Refugee Admissions Program, continuing modernization of USCIS business and applicant interaction processes and service, anti-fraud and national security screening, and other efforts.
At the EOIR oversight hearing, Mr. Osuna noted that previous budget cuts led to backlogs of more than 457,000 immigration cases across the United States as of the end of fiscal year (FY) 2015, which was exacerbated by the 2014 influx of border-crossers. Mr. Osuna said a number of new immigration judges are being hired to deal with the backlogs, as a result of new appropriations. Among other things, he also mentioned the installation of new video equipment that allows immigration judges to hear some cases remotely.
Mr. Osuna said that after taking into account attrition through the end of FY 2015, EOIR has increased the total number of immigration judges for the first time since FY 2011, and aggressive hiring efforts continue. He noted that a total of 23 new immigration judges have entered on duty since November 2014, and that as of November 15, 2015, the Attorney General had selected another 25 new judges, who are now going through the required background and security checks before they can start hearing cases. Another two dozen immigration judge candidates, he noted, are going through the final stages of the hiring process. Mr. Osuna said that all of these new judges "will greatly assist in reducing the pending caseload when they arrive in immigration courts over the coming months."

Visa Bulletin Notes Statistics on Applicants in Limited Immigrant Categories for Consular Processing
The Department of State's Visa Bulletin for February 2016 notes that the National Visa Center (NVC) has provided totals of applicants registered in the various numerically limited immigrant categories for processing at consular posts as of November 1, 2015.
In October, the Department of State asked the NVC at Portsmouth, New Hampshire, to report the totals of applicants on waiting lists in the various numerically limited immigrant categories. Applications for adjustment of status under INA § 245 pending at U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) offices are not included in the tabulation of this immigrant waiting list data. As such, these figures only reflect petitions the Department of State has received, and do not include the significant number of applications held at USCIS offices.
The Visa Bulletin for February 2016 is available here. The report is available here.
USCIS Issues Reminder About Immigration Relief Measures for Victims of Severe Weather
USCIS issued a reminder on December 31, 2015, about immigration relief measures "that may help people affected by unforeseen circumstances, such as the recent severe weather and flooding in areas of the Southern and Midwestern United States."
USCIS said these measures may be available upon request:
* Change or extension of nonimmigrant status for an individual currently in the United States, even if the request is filed after the authorized period of admission has expired
* Re-parole of individuals previously granted parole by USCIS
* Expedited processing of advance parole requests
* Expedited adjudication of requests for off-campus employment authorization for F-1 students experiencing severe economic hardship
* Expedited adjudication of employment authorization applications, where appropriate
* Consideration of fee waivers due to an inability to pay
* Assistance for those who received a Request for Evidence or a Notice of Intent to Deny but were unable to appear for an interview, submit evidence, or respond in a timely manner
* Replacement of lost or damaged immigration or travel documents issued by USCIS, such as a Permanent Resident Card (Green Card)
* Rescheduling of a biometrics appointment
USCIS said that when making a request, the affected individual should explain how the severe weather created a need for the requested relief.

USCIS Updates Request for Premium Processing Service Form
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has posted an update to Form I-907, Request for Premium Processing Service. The new edition is dated 12/11/15. The 01/29/15 version will also still be accepted.
Employers may use the I-907 to request faster processing of certain employment-based petitions and applications. Form I-129, Petition for a Nonimmigrant Worker and Form I-140, Immigrant Petition for Alien Worker, have been designated for premium processing service, for example. Not all designated classifications within these forms are eligible, however, and the R-1 classification is only eligible after a successful onsite inspection at the place of employment.
The form is available here. USCIS's Forms Updates page is available here. For more information on categories eligible for premium processing, click here.
DHS Secretary Releases Statement on Southwest Border Security in Light of Removals
Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Jeh Johnson released a statement on January 4, 2016, on southwest border security, in light of stepped-up removal operations underway.
Secretary Johnson noted that in the spring and summer of 2014, a significant spike occurred in families and unaccompanied children from Central America attempting to cross the U.S. southern border without authorization. In response, he noted, DHS took a number of actions in collaboration with the governments of Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador, and the numbers declined dramatically. In FY 2015, he said, the number of apprehensions by U.S. Border Patrol of those attempting to cross the southern border without authorization decreased to 331,333. With the exception of one year, this was the lowest number of apprehensions on the southern border since 1972, he noted. In recent months, however, the rate of apprehensions on the southern border has begun to climb again, he said.
Secretary Johnson noted that the focus of the "operations" were adults and their children who (i) were apprehended after May 1, 2014, crossing the southern border illegally, (ii) have been issued final orders of removal by an immigration court, and (iii) have exhausted appropriate legal remedies, and have no outstanding appeal or claim for asylum or other humanitarian relief under U.S. laws. As part of these operations, he said, 121 individuals were taken into custody, primarily from Georgia, Texas, and North Carolina, and they are now in the process of being removed from the United States and repatriated. Most of these families are first being transported to one of ICE's family residential centers for temporary processing before being issued travel documents and boarding a return flight to their home countries.
He said a number of precautions were taken as part of these operations. Among other things, ICE "exercised prosecutorial discretion in a number of cases for health or other personal reasons," he noted.
Various individuals and groups have criticized the controversial removal operations, including the Congressional Hispanic Caucus. Chairwoman Linda Sanchez (D-Cal.) said, "Our federal government should not be separating parents from their children. As the mother of a young son, it's easy for me to imagine how traumatizing having ICE agents storm someone's home and tearing families apart can be for a young child. Invading homes is inhumane and adds to the trauma of these families fleeing violence and oppression." And Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-Ill.) said, "We hear that children are not going to school and parents are not going to work out of fear. Not even a week into the New Year and 2016 has turned into one of fear and hiding. But let us be very clear. Deporting families will not resolve the violence and corruption that push people from El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras to risk assault, rape, and murder to seek refuge in the United States."
Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton said she "believes we should not be conducting large-scale raids and roundups that sow fear and division in our communities." On the Republican side, however, candidate Donald Trump took credit for the Obama administration's decision to conduct the raids.
On January 15, 2016, protesters came to the White House. A group of Central American organizations posted a statement against the "inhumane" raids here. The Guatemalan Foreign Relations Ministry released a list of steps in Spanish for migrants in the United States who encounter U.S. immigration officials, found here,
and the Guatemalan and Salvadoran governments released statements against the raids. The Honduran government, however, reportedly did not join in the protests.
There have been business ramifications too, as people across the country stay inside due to fears and perceptions of random targeting. According to news reports, for example, shop owners in Wheaton, Maryland, have complained that it has become difficult to cover rent and other bills because many fewer Latinos are out shopping. One owner of a popular Mexican-Salvadoran restaurant said that normally she sees around 300 customers per day but now she is only getting about 20. "Customers were telling me that the rumor was, 'Don't come to Wheaton. ICE is in the neighborhood," she said. Another shop owner said that his business income dropped by 50 to 60 percent since the beginning of 2016.
Montgomery County, Maryland, which includes Wheaton, said that local police will not cooperate with the raids. Montgomery County Executive Isiah Leggett called the raids "ill-founded and counter-productive." County leaders expressed concerns that people are staying home from work and school, and are afraid to call the police when a crime is committed. On the other side, Corey Stewart, the board chair of Prince William County, Virginia, who is the leader of Mr. Trump's campaign in Virginia, said, "I'm going to do the very best that I can to encourage illegal aliens who want to commit crimes to leave Prince William County, in fact to leave Virginia all together, [and] go up to Maryland, because you're welcome up there."
Secretary Johnson's statement is available here.
DHS Extends and Redesignates TPS for South Sudan
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced on January 25, 2016, that it is extending the designation of South Sudan for temporary protected status (TPS) for 18 months, from May 3, 2016, through November 2, 2017, and redesignating South Sudan for TPS for 18 months, effective May 3, 2016, through November 2, 2017.
DHS said it determined that an extension of the current designation and a redesignation of South Sudan for TPS are warranted because the ongoing armed conflict and extraordinary and temporary conditions that prompted the 2014 TPS redesignation have persisted, and in some cases deteriorated, and would pose a serious threat to the personal safety of South Sudanese nationals if they were required to return to their country. Although the parties to the conflict signed a peace agreement in August 2015, violence persists in many parts of the country, and the implementation of the peace agreement is halting to date, DHS noted.
The notice, from U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), states that the extension allows currently eligible TPS beneficiaries to retain TPS through November 2, 2017, so long as they otherwise continue to meet the eligibility requirements for TPS. The redesignation of South Sudan allows additional individuals who have been continuously residing in the United States since January 25, 2016, to obtain TPS if otherwise eligible.
DHS also set forth procedures necessary for eligible nationals of South Sudan (or individuals having no nationality who last habitually resided in South Sudan) either to: (1) re-register under the extension if they already have TPS and to apply for renewal of their employment authorization documents (EADs) with USCIS; or (2) submit an initial registration application under the redesignation and apply for an EAD.
For individuals who have already been granted TPS, the 60-day re-registration period runs from January 25, 2016, through March 25, 2016. USCIS will issue new EADs with a November 2, 2017, expiration date to eligible South Sudan TPS beneficiaries who timely re-register and apply for EADs under this extension. Given the time frames involved with processing TPS re-registration applications, DHS said it recognizes that not all re-registrants will receive new EADs before their current EADs expire on May 2, 2016. Accordingly, DHS is automatically extending the validity of EADs issued under the TPS designation of South Sudan for 6 months, through November 2, 2016. The notice explains how TPS beneficiaries and their employers may determine which EADs are automatically extended and their impact on the employment eligibility verification (Form I-9) and E-Verify processes.
Under the redesignation, individuals who currently do not have TPS (or an initial TPS application pending) may submit an initial application during the 180-day initial registration period that runs from January 25, 2016, through July 25, 2016. In addition to demonstrating continuous residence in the United States since January 25, 2016, and meeting other eligibility criteria, initial applicants for TPS under the redesignation must demonstrate that they have been continuously physically present in the United States since May 3, 2016, the effective date of the redesignation of South Sudan.
Initial TPS applications that were filed under South Sudan's 2011 designation or the 2013 or 2014 redesignations and remained pending on January 25, 2016, will be treated as initial applications under this redesignation. Individuals who have a pending initial South Sudan TPS application do not need to file a new Application for TPS (Form I-821). DHS provided additional instructions in the notice for individuals whose TPS applications remain pending and who would like to obtain an EAD valid through November 2, 2017.
The notice is available here.
New York Immigration Attorney Arrested for Immigration Fraud, Aggravated Identity Theft
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced on January 15, 2016, that it played a "critical role" in an investigation leading to the arrest of New York attorney Gnoleba Seri for immigration fraud and aggravated identity theft. Homeland Security Investigations arrested Mr. Seri the same day in New York.
According to the complaint against Mr. Seri, between October 2012 and April 2015, he allegedly engaged in a scheme to use personal information contained in legitimate immigration documents for fraudulent purposes. In his role as a licensed immigration attorney, the complaint alleges, Mr. Seri submitted falsified and forged I-864 forms (affidavits of support for those seeking immigrant visas) in support of his clients' applications for immigration visas and legal permanent resident status. Specifically, USCIS said, Mr. Seri received legitimate I-864 forms, tax information, pay stubs, and W-2 forms from individuals sponsoring his clients, then fraudulently submitted those documents with applications for other clients. USCIS said he submitted I-864 forms that listed individuals as financial sponsors who had never met the people they purportedly had agreed to sponsor. Those I-864 forms included the sponsors' real names, identifying information, financial information, and forged signatures. The fraudulent and forged forms all listed Mr. Seri as the preparer and many were notarized by him.
Mr. Seri was charged with one count of visa fraud, which carries a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison; one count of aggravated identity theft, which carries a mandatory consecutive minimum sentence of two years in prison; and one count of mail fraud, which carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison.
The USCIS announcement is available here.
Supreme Court Agrees to Hear DAPA Case
The U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to rule on a challenge to President Obama's "Deferred Action for Parents of Americans and Lawful Permanent Residents (DAPA)" program, in U.S. v. Texas, No. 15-674. Most recently, in November 2015, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit upheld an injunction based on insufficient notice and opportunity for public comment, preventing the program from proceeding until the legal matter could be addressed. The appeals court also said that President Obama had exceeded his statutory authority.
In an unusual move, the Court has asked the parties to the case whether President Obama violated his constitutional obligations to enforce U.S. laws-a question that goes to the heart of the scope of presidential power. Also at issue is whether the complaining states have standing to sue the federal government. The states argue that they would suffer direct and concrete injury in millions of additional dollars expended if DAPA goes forward; for example, Texas would have to provide driver's licenses to program beneficiaries.
According to reports, the case is expected to be argued in April and decided in June.
A brief submitted on behalf of the Obama administration is available here. The states' brief is available here. The Fifth Circuit's opinion is available here. The opinion granting a preliminary injunction, by the U.S District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Brownsville Division can be found here.
ABIL Global: China
Companies filing for work permits in Beijing must receive preapproval
As of January 4, 2016, companies sponsoring work permit applications and Expert Certificates in Beijing must receive preapproval through online certification with the Beijing Labor Bureau. This includes applications for short-term work authorization, employment licenses, work permits (including permits for Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Macao nationals), and expert certificates.
Sponsoring companies must apply for and activate a digital certificate with the Labor Bureau online. The Labor Bureau will review the application and schedule an interview for the sponsor to submit the required documents in person.
This is expected to increase the application time for a work permit in Beijing. It is recommended that sponsoring companies register with the Labor Bureau as soon as possible to avoid delays in the work permit process.

Day Traders Diary
10/10/12Equities got off to a mixed start as the key indices chopped around their respective unchanged lines during the first hour. Sellers took control after traders digested the wholesale inventories data, pushing the major averages to their worst levels. Afternoon trade was mostly quiet as the three averages hovered near session lows. As a result, the S&P 500 finished lower by 0.6%.
Earlier, the Federal Reserve released its September Beige Book. In its report, the twelve Federal Reserve Districts reported that economic activity "expanded modestly since the last report." Residential real estate conditions as well as the nonfinancial services sector also showed modest improvement.
The manufacturing sector was described as mixed but somewhat healthier than what was observed in the last report. Meanwhile, the industrial market was also described as mixed. While the Philadelphia, New York, Cleveland, and Atlanta districts all showed strength, conditions in Richmond deteriorated slightly. The Beige Book also commented on consumer spending by saying it was mostly unchanged since the previous report.
Financials registered the slimmest losses and the SPDR Financial Select Sector ETF (XLF 15.94, -0.01) shed 0.1%. Among the majors, Citigroup (C 35.14, +0.54) and JPMorgan Chase (JPM 41.77, +0.39) were the top performers. The two names registered respective gains of 1.6% and 0.9% after Bank of America/Merrill Lynch resumed coverage of the two stocks with a 'buy' rating. Note that JPMorgan Chase will report its third quarter earnings before Friday's open.
European financials saw mixed performance as Deutsche Bank (DB 41.17, +0.33) added 0.8% while Spanish Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria (BBVA 7.59, -0.10) slipped 1.3%.
Energy stocks were the biggest laggard of the session. Chevron (CVX 112.45, -4.91) slid 4.2% after announcing that its third quarter earnings are expected to be substantially lower than results from the previous quarter. Penn Virginia (PVA 5.10, -0.39) and Tesoro (TSO 38.70, -2.29) lost 7.1% and 5.6%, respectively.
The Dow Jones Transportation Average outperformed the broader market with a gain of 0.1%. However, the strength was largely due to FedEx (FDX 89.52, +3.94). The bellwether stock gained 5.2% after announcing a program which targets $1.7 billion in annual profit improvements by the end of fiscal year 2016. In addition, the company reaffirmed its second quarter and full-year 2012 guidance which it had revised down on September 18.
Elsewhere, Alcoa (AA 8.71, -0.42) dipped 4.6% after beating on earnings and revenues. However, the company's third quarter revenue of $5.833 billion represents a 9.1% year-over-year decrease. In addition, AA lowered its 2012 global aluminum demand growth forecast from 7.0% to 6.0%.
Engine maker Cummins (CMI 87.79, -3.05) slid 3.4% after lowering its third quarter and full-year 2012 guidance due to weak demand. Caterpillar (CAT 83.16, -1.59) slipped 1.9% in sympathy.
Ambarella (AMBA 6.06, +0.06) made its public debut today. The producer of video processing semiconductors priced its initial public offering at $6, which was well below the expected price range of $9 to $11. The stock settled higher by 1.0% after shares began trading at $6.66.
August wholesale inventories increased by 0.5%. This was slightly lower than the increase of 0.6% which had been broadly forecast.
Weekly initial and continuing jobless claims, August trade balance, September export prices ex-agriculture, and September import prices ex-oil will all be reported at 8:30 ET.
The U.S. Treasury will look to make it three strong auctions for the week with tomorrow's $13 billion, 30-yr reopening.

From Living Expenses To Travel
The only issue with these sites is remembering to look at them before you buy anything. But once you've established a good routine you can expect to save hundreds of pounds per year, especially considering you can save money on everything from household bills and food shopping to entertainment, clothing and beauty items. There's no better time to sign up than the build up to Christmas- less than 100 sleeps to go!

- Topcashback – our only note for Topcashback is you'll likely be registered for the premium version which costs £5 per year, it may not seem like a lot but if you don't use the account this can be frustrating, particularly if you only remember to use it once per year. They don't take money out of our bank account for it though which is a plus; they just deduct it from your receipts. You can change this in your account settings so it becomes a free site. Also any quibble with companies I've had to reclaim cashback with, they've been super helpful at dealing with it.

Sometimes you just need somewhere to go to get expert advice on money matters and where to go to find the best deal or find out if there is a deal out there in the first place. Money Saving Expert is well versed at getting a good deal and helping you pull out a claim when you've been treated unfairly. These guys have your back.
Looks too good to be true? As for authenticity of a company you're looking to use, particularly helpful if you're looking to buy big ticket items, insurance or take out loans with companies you're unfamiliar with, Which? can provide you with that essential guidance; TrustPilot is also a great site for looking up reviews of a company. Get peace of mind, every time.
General savings
When it comes to everyday savings the following companies are a great starting point:
My Supermarket allows for you to search for your favourite brands and compare prices with the major supermarkets and other leading stores such as Boots, Poundland, Amazon, Lidl and Amazon. You can add your products straight to basket and they'll take care of the organisation for you. It may take you a little time to scan through the different companies but you can save some serious poundage in the process.
You're not guaranteed to get a deal every time but it is certainly worth the look. Vouchercodes is one of the most reliable voucher sites there is. If there is a deal out there, they're likely to know about it. Aside from checking with the retailer direct (and their offers page), don't waste your time searching for codes with others. It's likely if Vouchercodes don't have it, there isn't one out there.
Groupon can be a hit and miss experience but if you're willing to be flexible, you can get a good deal on just about anything. In particular, Groupon is great for a cheap meal, adventure/experience days and, on the odd occasion a good holiday too. In the lead up to Christmas they're sure to have some budget friendly gift ideas.
Beauty buys
My favourite sites for all things makeup, skincare and hair are allbeauty.com and most recently I discovered Escentual. If you're looking for a great deal on your favourite brands then look no further than these two sites. In addition to lowest prices Escentual offers a point's scheme which you can put towards future purchases.
As for treatments Groupon, Treatwell and Spabreaks are all great sites to search for and find the best deals for beauty treatments and spa days. If you don't have a particular therapist you love and you're looking for a nice day out or in desperate need of a treatment on the cheap then Groupon is a good a place as any to start- it's also worth checking every now and then to see if your favourite salon has a deal running. Spabreaks are more versed at enlightening you to spas in your area and generally they'll have the standard packages/prices but every now and then they'll run a special deal- it also allows you to compare prices with spas in the area if you're looking for a good deal, particularly if the facilities are similar. Treatwell on the other hand showcases a combination of spa and salons with treatments and spa days; they work with hundreds of salons across the country and will often run their own discounts such as recommend a friend to get so much off your next treatment and other special offers. They'll also update their systems as and when a new deal with the salon/spa goes live.
For travel
Compare the cost of flights with Skyscanner; they network with hundreds of airlines from around the world. There's a lot of flexibility with their search so you can find the best deals- adjust the flight length, price etc. and search with different airports to find the cheapest flight. If you're concerned with the agent it's booked through, just do a quick search through TrustPilot to see what others thought of them. Alternatively, go direct to the airline. You might be surprised!
As for hotel rooms, villas etc., I still find booking.com to have the cheapest deals. Trivago is a site that compares with leading travel sites like booking.com, Expedia etc. but I haven't find their prices to be accurate so it is still worth having a little rummage. An additional advantage of booking.com is the free cancellation facility. You can always secure at the price you see through the free cancellation option and if you find something or even the same thing cheaper late you can cancel the booking and rebook at the better deal. Expedia is my second favourite travel site to book accommodation through. Want more reviews? Trip Advisor is the place to go.
Household bills
As for your household bills comparison sites really are best, particularly if you're short on time.
You'll probably have noticed that very few companies offer a loyalty discount with their policies and when you get your renewal through it is in fact more expensive. So always be vigilant to your existing and policies that are coming up for renewal. It really is worth spending a little time to get a comparable service cheaper. If you do like your service provider you can always take your cheaper quote to them and ask to beat or at least match it. Our preferred sites are:
- USwitch– for energy, mobile plans, tv, finance and insurance.
- Compare The Market – Not only do they compare prices with hundreds of suppliers and make it easy for you to understand but they'll also send you out a limited edition doll which you can generally sell on eBay for £20 (though admittedly, they're rather cute!) AND you'll also get 2-4-1 movies for a year which, with inflating cinema tickets, is well worth having to get a discounted night out for you and the partner.
Need a little help to save?
Chip is a relatively new app out there but is one that can help you spot opportunities to save. The app has a read only access to your bank accounts and will monitor your spending patterns to help you identify how you can better manage your money and areas in which you can make savings. It then sends you a message advising how and where you can make those savings and earn interest in the process.

Draw near to Me with sincerity.
Cling to Me with hope because My promises are true.
You can be sure I'll keep My word because I'm faithful even when you're not.
Promise Keeper,
I'm at my ortho doctor's clinic waiting for him to arrive for my first appointment and maybe my last during this month – the fourth month since my accident.
I came home after I was released by my attending orthopaedic doctor from La Marsa private hospital. I stayed a week after my surgery. And anticipating my need for full time care my organisation, and I decided to evacuate me back here. One week after being hospitalised I was cleared to travel with so much precaution, and class except I cannot enjoy the perks of a business class traveller when you're nursing a cast leg and in blood thinners especially if your airline has good wine selections 🍾🍷🍹
So arriving after travelling 10,000 kilometres for 24 hours the reality of being disabled was sinking in. The local representatives of my insurance were in my case and scheduled me at the end of the week for a consult. The paranoid in me felt that I need to see the doctor immediately. Complaining of pain and thinking that my toes were turning blue. So instead of Saturday, I went to the emergency room three days prior only to be told my blood circulation was healthy and my pain was nothing to be worried about. My doctor just looked at my leg inspected the sutures and gush at how meticulously it was done and prescribed iron supplement and removed the blood thinner drugs. Then I was sent home. Uneventful 😄.
From then to now I wonder what will be the news … I am feeling lucky at my 7th visit to my doctor … that is if he arrives.
I am patiently waiting ⏳
How much do you appreciate every day?
We live day in, day out.
We toil, we adapt, we adjust to make the most of our life.
We do what we love, we pour out our passion. We try to be happy. We make others happy.
Does that make your day?
It does for me. With my kind of work, you have to believe me when I say I am thankful every day…
in the morning …
for the peaceful and restful sleep …
for the new day …
and for my daily struggles.
I met people in a far worst situation than me. I've been to places where luxury is a dream. I've been around love from nothing and love that is waiting for nothing in return.
That is why even in my current circumstances. I am grateful every day.
As you already know I am still in the process of healing. My foot and leg have not fully recovered but I am getting there.
I am waiting for it to take its natural course, it means I still have to keep on going as today reminds me of the accident I had at the beginning of the year.
Before anything else, I like to greet everyone Happy Easter!
In the Catholic faith, this is one of the traditions we celebrate like Christmas, as this is the time when Jesus with his short life was able to give us God's promise of redemption from all my sins.
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:!6
Well, it can be redemptions of your sins or our sins it doesn't matter as long as you believe that God fulfilled his promise to give us new slate to start over. but then again if you don't believe in God, that's up to you, but pretty sure you believe in second chances or an opportunity to start over and for me this is it.
I do this every year, I look back and see how I could be a better person and try hard to outrank how I assessed myself and achieve the happy life I like to live. I made mistakes in the past, now I have time to correct them and try harder not to repeat the same mistakes.
Believe me, when I say I am like everybody else, I am human, prone to make mistakes (reminds you of a song eh?) and to succumb to temptation (making it sound like I have superhuman powers, I have to stop watching Marvel movies!).
In fact, this year started not so right for me. I have to cut my contract short because I have to return to my family to be taken care of. I don't know when I can go back to work now that I have to start over.
What is important to me now is to keep myself current and be motivated enough to keep me out of bed, psyching myself even though it's hard not knowing for certain what the future holds. But like I said, we all deserve second chances, I deserve a second chance and this Easter Sunday, I intend to take advantage of that and renew my life.
This blog may be my way out, at least as a catharsis for now but who knows. Social media has been an outlet, I think I've used it more than I should but still I want to keep sharing a little bit of me!

Each year teacher education graduates and employers of graduates from Tuskegee University School of Education are surveyed. The surveys are distributed early during the winter semester usually during homecoming for the graduates and during the spring semester for employers either by hard copy or electronic mail.
Both surveys include 26 questions under three categorical areas; (1) Overall, (2) General Studies, (3) Professional Studies and (4) Teaching Field Studies. Both groups receive the same survey. The survey is evaluated by very satisfied, satisfied, partially satisfied, unsatisfied, and very unsatisfied. Below are the cumulative results of the past five academic years.
Key: VSP = Very Satisfied Principals, VSG = Very Satisfied Graduates, SP = Satisfied Principals, SG = Satisfied Graduates, NP = Neutral Principals, NG = Neutral Graduates
Count: N = 42 Graduates, N = 31 Principals
There were no "Unsatisfied" or "Very Unsatisfied" reported, therefore the information was not included in the chart.
The "Very Satisfied" level for graduates was about 9% higher for graduates than principals
The "Satisfied" level for principals was 11% higher than that of graduates

E.ON UK today confirmed a 30% increase in its earnings for the first half of the year.
The energy supplier's report showed earnings for the first six months of 2012 were €297million (£245million), an increase from €228million (£198million) last year.
The German parent company's first-half earnings rose by a total of €2.4 billion (£1.9billion) before tax to around €6.7 billion (£5.3billion).
Dr. Johannes Teyssen, CEO of the group said: "Our solid first-half results demonstrate that we're meeting our existing challenges decisively. We successfully renegotiated our gas-procurement contracts and the transformation of our company through our E.ON efficiency-enhancement program is moving forward according to plan."
Last month British Gas also announced a 23% rise in earnings, which followed calls for it to cut energy prices for its customers.

Some of us have been to their first project, some others hopefully not the last one. And this are impressions of some of Armenian participants. Davit Baghdasaryan The project "Stone age in us" gave me the opportunity to discover not only the habits and national character of other countries but also their deep routes coming from very ancient times. During the project we felt closer to the nature due to camping and hiking. The life in tents, evenings around the bonfire, preparing food on fire and different relevant workshops made us to feel the spirit of Stone Age. This helped us also to become a strong team by overcoming several challenges and difficulties. With this team we managed to take care of the ecology by organizing the habitat of rare species of butterflies. As my first project it exceeded my expectations. Furthermore, I acquired a lot of new friends of different nationalities and I believe that due to our newly formed but enough strong friendship we will meet again and again somewhere in Europe and will ensure the success of other projects as well. Lilit Baghdasaryan The idea of the project "Stone age in us" interested me from the beginning. It was informative to know the traditions of other countries and their problems. We understood that we have many things in common. I very much like the atmosphere of participant countries and acquired a lot of new friends, whom I hope I will see again. For me the best part of the project was the time that we spend in the woods. I learn a lot of things about camping. Also we did workshops. At the workshops we show each other what hand skills we know, so at the end of the project we learned a lot of new things. Most of all in this few days I liked participants of the project, and we spend a really good time together. Vahan Ghazaryan During the project "Stone age in us" I learned lots of important and necessary thing which I'll need in future. At first I was a little disappointing/shy, because everything was new for me: new people, unusual and not popular topic we should discuss and the idea that we are spending 2-3 nights in the forest. I always like the things or events which are connected with the nature, the environment. This week was one of the most important and special in my life. I learned how to make a tent, to sleep inside it, to have a amazing expedition while hearing the birds voices, and doing every step with a great pleasure, with singing, dancing, and joking. I aquired lots of new friends from Portugal, Macedonia, Estonia, and Lithunania. Everything was unforgettable and every second I was enjoying my time. Thank you Lithuania. Mané Matevossian For now I know one thing for sure. I could never imagine this very first project of mine could replenish my monotone life with so many amazing colors just in two weeks. Each participant from his/her own country added their own sweet taste to this project which I could never ever forget. Thanks to the participants open mindedness and passion concerning the theme, we created the best of the ancient human's world with its culture and appropriate way of living. We created various handmade jewelries, wood cups. And the hiking we had and the festival we organized are the real proofs that we succeed in creating a brave "stone age" person in ourselves. Particularly, the camping spent in the village Mozuriškes gave us the chance to act and think differently. As it was in the ancient times, also in the camp too we did everything as a group and nothing prevented us from our resistant attitude. I really hope that it was the first, but not the last project with these kinds of lovely and bright people are. The exchange project was developed and implemented in cooperation with the following partners: Armenian Progressive Youth, Volunteer's Center Skopje, Continuous Action, AEVA, and the hosting organization: LOBIU DIRBTUVES.

God's passion is an endless river
White water running wild
In a restless rushing fury
To see souls reconciled.
It reaches wide across forever
It's dangerous and deep
And while some venture to the shoreline
Some even dare to leap
And The River rages, The River runs
All through the ages, Long after I'm gone
There's a truth I'm finding I can't ignore
Whether I dive in or stand on the shore
The River keeps rushing on.
All of those who ride the rapids
Have a message they must tell
There's a joy in being lost in something
That's bigger than yourself
And though the current takes you places
Where you learn to lose control
If you think you're going under
He'll never let you go, never let you go

Arsenal have confirmed midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan will not be travelling with the rest of the squad for their Europa League final against rivals Chelsea.
There have been concerns over Mkhitaryan's status in the country for the final due to non-existent diplomatic relations between the two Caucasus states because of disputes over the Nagorno-Karabakh region. And on Tuesday morning, Futaa.com revealed that Mkhitaryan was assured of safety by Azerbaijan's UK ambassador Tahir Taghizadeh. However, the north London club has confirmed the Armenian won't be part of the travelling squad to Baku following a collective agreement with Mkhi's family.
"We have thoroughly explored all the options for Micki to be part of the squad but after discussing this with Micki and his family we have collectively agreed he will not be in our travelling party," Arsenal's managing director Vinai Venkatesham confirmed.
"We have written to Uefa expressing our deep concerns about this situation. Micki has been a key player in our run to the final so this is a big loss for us from a team perspective. We're also very sad that a player will miss out on a major European final in circumstances such as this, as it is something that comes along very rarely in a footballer's career."
"Micki will continue to be part of our preparations until we depart for Baku at the weekend."
The former Manchester United ace missed Arsenal game against Qarabag FK last year as he could not travel to Azerbaijani due to insecurity issues.
Having considered all the current options, we had to take the tough decision for me not to travel with the squad to the #UEL Final against #Chelsea [...] pic.twitter.com/3CPrTvLquy— Henrikh Mkhitaryan (@HenrikhMkh) May 21, 2019

By LaVerne Adekunle, PhD
Most Amazing People are those which are professionals and experts in their relevant fields like education, business, entertainment, health, stress management, homemakers and government. In fact, all those people who practically work for the benefit of society in a positive and effective manner are the most amazing people.
We are conducting a summit that will be a worldwide programme that centers on the alleviation of stress and anxiety from personal and society issues in order to improve the mental health of the attendees. M.A.P. generally has an organizational structure, it works along with different professionals to conduct events, webinars that provide awareness regarding the importance of physical and mental health in the society. Now M.A.P. is trying to improve its outreach by increasing its recruitment and assigning each city with a director and bigger cities with more than one leader.
The four point's agenda of MAP include:
1. The improvement of the mental health of the people so that they actively perform and cope for the benefit of their family and society.
2. To provide awareness regarding the importance of physical fitness and self-development.
3. How to handle bullying and social media "trolls".
4. Maximizing the management of stress, anxiety and depression.
This program will require a director from each city to take a role as a volunteer leader. Some larger cities may have more than one director. This campaign will be a team effort involving community support.
A most crucial and central role in the campaign of Most Amazing People (M.A.P.) organized by laExpose' Production, a 501c3, a non-profit organization. This NGO is aspiring to strengthen the needs of communities; the goals are to increase its reach to 100 speakers in every city throughout the globe with the objective of "each one reach".
Although the strategic goals of the M.A.P. are focused around the above mentioned four-point agenda. But at tactical and operational level M.A.P. is conducting certain campaigns for the production of the documentary feature film, podcast, and webinars. M.A.P. also plan to submit it's project to the Points of Light and MADD ''Make a Difference Day'' annual event. Participants are encouraged that everyone is important and 1 in 5 people deals with mental health issues. We can make a difference for the well being of our family and society.

The kingdom of Bungabali is located on the island of Alor, prov. Nusa Tenggara Timur.
* Foto kingdoms on the island of Alor: link
History of the kingdom of Bungabali
One of the kingdoms in the territory of the Alor Islands was the Kingdom of Bungabali (Alor) led by the Nampira dynasty. Before the Nampira dynasty came to power, this kingdom was led by King Kawiha Toeli. The kingdom of Bungabali (Alor) had a vast territory.
King Kawiha Toeli is one of the kings who reigned in the Kingdom of Bungabali (Alor). He ruled from 1903 to 1908. King Kawiha Toeli's rule ended when Dutch intervention against local rulers and took power from the hands of local rulers. In 1912 there was a transfer of power from King Kawiha Toeli in Bungabali (Great Alor now) to the Nampira dynasty in Dulolong. The Dutch colonial government preferred Nampira Bukang to become King Bungabali (Alor) because he was educated and fluent in Dutch. As compensation, the crown prince of Tulimau was appointed as Kapitan Overtime.
King Kawiha Toeli's power in the Bungabali Kingdom (Alor) ended when the Dutch arrived at Alor and interfered in the kingdom's affairs and transferred King Kawiha Toeli's power to the Nampira Dynasty. Therefore, this study was conducted to reveal about the transfer of power from King Kawiha Toeli to the Nampira Dynasty.

"The village is uncommonly charming, mostly of stone cottages along the main street. " Nikolaus Pevsner: Buildings of England: Lincolnshire (published 1964)
West Deeping has a mix of old and more recent buildings typical of a small agricultural village which has existed at least from the time of the Domesday Book, published in 1086.
The local limestone used for many of the older buildings during the 18th and 19th centuries helps to give the village its character. Parts of the Manor House and Cromwell House date back to the mid-17th century and there are two thatched cottages which are probably older than can be traced in their deeds. The church's earliest features are 13th century.
Many, but not all, the buildings of historical interest are included in the National Heritage List for England (NHLE). As well as the Grade 1 St Andrew's Church and two Grade 2 * listings – the Manor House and Molecey's Mill and Granary – West Deeping has another 20 nationally protected historic sites including barns, a former maltings, a couple of converted granaries, a pigeoncote, a table tomb, a pair of bridges, a milepost and a telephone box!

Muting glitch
Going through the comment stream which contains muted individuals doesn't work properly. Clicking on next/previous comments links doesn't work once it arrives to the hidden comment. It defeats the whole purpose of muting posters. Makes reading comments awkward. Will appreciate if this can be corrected.
