HOPE Youth Corps

HOPE Youth Corps (HYC) fue establecido en 1994 por HOPE en todo el mundo y es un programa de aprendizaje basado en la fe diseñado para estudiantes de secundaria y universitarios. Trabajando con los programas mundiales de HOPE en los países en desarrollo y dentro de los Estados Unidos, los participantes de HYC sirven a comunidades de bajos ingresos a través de diversos esfuerzos de extensión y programas de mantenimiento comunitario.

Los participantes en los sitios internacionales de HYC han servido de innumerables maneras diferentes. Han vendado las heridas de los pacientes de lepra, han realizado obras de calle sobre el VIH / SIDA y la Tuberculosis, han cuidado a los niños infectados con el VIH, han limpiado y reparado orfanatos y clínicas, han donado sangre, distribuido alimentos y ropa, , Y alentó a los ancianos, los enfermos y los solitarios.

En los últimos años, los voluntarios en los sitios de los Estados Unidos han trabajado con estudiantes desatendidos que viven en áreas urbanas. Los voluntarios facilitan lecciones sobre el desarrollo del carácter, la resolución de conflictos y la administración del medio ambiente. Estos proyectos de mentoría incluyen actividades de formación de equipos y tienen como objetivo ayudar a los estudiantes a entender su propio potencial para triunfar, superar los temores y las dudas y hacer una diferencia en sus propias comunidades.

Entre los muchos beneficios que los estudiantes reciben de su participación en HYC están las amistades y memorias de por vida, un mayor sentido de propósito, una mayor confianza en uno mismo e independencia, y una mejor comprensión del mundo moderno. Muchos de los que se ofrecen como voluntarios a través de HYC se convierten en enfermeras, médicos, maestros, consejeros, o trabajan con HOPE en todo el mundo y otras ONG para brindar la atención y asistencia necesarias al mundo en desarrollo. A través de sus experiencias con HYC, los estudiantes voluntarios profundizan su compasión y obtienen un profundo aprecio por lo que se les ha dado en sus propias vidas. Fundamentalmente, HOPE Youth Corps construye una futura generación de líderes que buscan mejorar las vidas de los necesitados.

"Ayudar a los pobres es parte de nuestro cristianismo. no es una opción. Jesús siempre estuvo con los pobres. Estoy convencido por la gratitud que vi en las personas en HYC ... Quiero ir en un equipo de misión, tomar un riesgo y aprovechar oportunidades para servir. No quiero arrepentimientos. También quiero crecer en humildad a través de este tipo de servicio. "- Alexandro Holguín, Nuevo México, EE. UU.

"Volví de HOPE Youth Corps inspirado para dar mi todo en la vida, para empujarme a hacer lo mejor posible en todos los aspectos de mi vida. Decidí que quería construir una conexión más fuerte con Dios y que dedicaría mi vida a ayudar a otros con amabilidad. "- Maydeline Suherlan, Indonesia. Maydeline fue bautizada unas pocas semanas después del 2013 HYC de la India.

En línea consiga las estafas ricas del esquema $ 302 millones: Ministerio de Taiwán

TAIPEI, Taiwán - Cuerpo de la juventud de la divisa. Una plataforma de juegos de guerra en línea, se reveló ayer como un complicado fraude según la Oficina de Investigación de la Ciudad de Taipei del Ministerio de Justicia (MOJ), y se ha informado de que ha estafado al menos NT $ 7 mil millones ($ 302 millones).

La oficina de investigación había recibido informes sobre un hombre de apellido Wu, que se llamaba "Optimus Prime", un personaje de la franquicia de Transformers, desde marzo. Wu escribió sus propios programas de plugins de juegos en línea, y se comercializó como un "distribuidor profesional de divisas" para formar el Forex Youth Corps.

Wu dijo a través de sus promociones en grupos de Facebook y mediante ventas directas que unirse a la plataforma obtendría ganancias de alto rendimiento. El esquema de obtener-rico atrajo a estudiantes y jóvenes con generalmente ninguna experiencia. Las estafas alcanzaron por lo menos NT $ 7 mil millones.

Otros métodos que el grupo de estafa intentó incluyen compartir información sobre sus estilos de vida de lujo y experiencias de usar la plataforma en Facebook, que van desde viajar al extranjero a comprar coches de carreras de alto precio y motocicletas.

Wu y sus cómplices, alrededor de 10 personas en total, iniciaron su programa en 2012 y organizaron seminarios de inversión en las principales ciudades de Taiwán, enseñando a los asistentes el uso del programa de comercio de depósitos forex.

A los asistentes se les garantizaba que "ganarían rápidamente del 5% al ​​10% de los beneficios" con cada operación. Los asistentes que más tarde se convirtieron en miembros de las plataformas de juegos de guerra en línea fueron, sin embargo, en una sorpresa como Wu y su plataforma nunca había estado vinculado a los mercados de comercio de divisas.

El grupo de estafadores evitó la investigación a través de la compra de mansiones de lujo bajo diferentes nombres, o la compra de coches de carreras en efectivo o mediante métodos de pago internacionales, registrándolos en "empresas contratadas".

NYSC, Bank of Industry firman un memorando de entendimiento sobre desarrollo de habilidades emprendedoras

El Cuerpo Nacional de Servicio Juvenil (NYSC) y el Banco de la Industria (BOI) han firmado un Memorando de Entendimiento (MoU) sobre el desarrollo del espíritu empresarial para los miembros del cuerpo.

El pacto verá a BoI entrenar y empoderar a los miembros del cuerpo en varias vocaciones y darles préstamos sin garantía como capital y expansión de iniciativas empresariales.

La jefa de BoI, la Sra. Evelyn Oputu, que estaba en la firma del MoU junto al Director General de NYSC, General de Brigada Johnson Olawunmi en Abuja el martes 21 de 2014, describió a los jóvenes nigerianos como extremadamente talentosos y merecedores de apoyo.

Según ella, la asociación cortaría a través de varias disciplinas tales como habilidades empresarias del aprendizaje del comercio para los que sean buenos en negociar así como deportes entre otras disciplinas.

"Los entrenaremos en la adquisición de habilidades. Sabemos que no todo el mundo tiene la capacidad de aprender habilidades empresariales, algunos tienen las habilidades para hacer negocios, algunos son buenos en ingeniería y pueden transformar las áreas vitales en nuestro país porque pueden ayudar a transformar las carreteras. También, aquellos en los deportes que pueden entrenar a niños en deportes. Bank of Industry está tratando de hacer una academia de fútbol y baloncesto ", dijo, ya que espera que la sinergia que surgiría del camino entre los dos cuerpos transformaría a la sociedad.

El NYSC D. G, Brig. Gen Olawunmi, dijo que la asociación ayudaría a crear confianza en los jóvenes nigerianos. También dijo que el pacto entre NYSC y BoI ayudará a desarrollar dos de los mandatos del NYSC que incluye a inculcar los valores de la autosuficiencia en los miembros del cuerpo y jengibre a contribuir con su cuota para el crecimiento de la economía nacional .

El pacto también fue atestiguado por la Directora, Adquisición de Habilidades y Desarrollo Empresarial (SAED), la Sra. Mary Danabia.

Los comerciantes de Forex que comenzó joven y se convirtió en éxito

El comercio de divisas, conocido como forex trading para abreviar, es todo acerca de la compra y venta de monedas de diferentes partes del mundo para obtener un beneficio. Los operadores de Forex obtienen beneficios de dos maneras. Primero, compran una moneda y la venden cuando su valor ha aumentado. Segundo, venden una moneda y la compran cuando su precio ha bajado.

La mayoría de los comerciantes pueden acceder fácilmente al mercado de divisas en línea, lo que significa que pueden comerciar en monedas de cualquier parte del mundo. Este mercado también es de fácil acceso, ya que está disponible cinco días y medio por semana. Según un comerciante en MTrading. in. Es fácil de entender los diversos conceptos de forex y más fácil de empezar con él una vez que se entiende. Opina que los comerciantes más jóvenes se sienten atraídos por el comercio de divisas simplemente porque es fácil de entender.

De hecho, varios comerciantes de la parte superior de divisas comenzó joven. Buena Patria de Indonesia se enteró sobre el comercio de divisas a la tierna edad de 14 años. Empezó a leer sobre él por interés, pero pronto se apasionó por el mercado. Hoy en día, él opera un sitio web de comercio de divisas que ofrece información valiosa sobre el comercio de divisas y otros temas relacionados con las finanzas que le interesan.

Aunque todavía es un estudiante en la escuela secundaria, quiere ir a la universidad en el Reino Unido y obtener un título en finanzas o economía.

Patria también es miembro de un portal forex, que permite a comerciantes e inversionistas jóvenes crear conciencia financiera entre los jóvenes. El portal también tiene como objetivo vincular oportunidades comerciales y de inversión.

Milan Cutkovic, de Suiza, otro miembro del portal, también comenzó a operar a los 14 años. Hoy en día, es un comerciante activo, centrándose en el comercio a corto plazo. Él también opera un sitio web, en el que proporciona información valiosa de comercio de divisas y comparte sus opiniones sobre el mercado y sus experiencias comerciales. Vale la pena escuchar, ya que ha ganado muchas experiencias valiosas y también ha estudiado economía empresarial.

Otro comerciante joven de la divisa digno de mención es Josh Olfet. Un inversionista y un empresario residentes en Canadá. Comenzó a operar a la edad de 15 años y hoy es muy exitoso en el comercio de acciones, materias primas y divisas.

El hecho de que las personas tan jóvenes como los mencionados anteriormente pueden desarrollar un interés en el comercio es realmente emocionante. También indica que cualquiera puede aprender sobre el comercio de divisas, siempre y cuando sean apasionados de hacer ganancias financieras.

ICBC, CITIC Start Servicios de Forex

El Banco Industrial y Comercial de China (ICBC) y el CITIC Industrial Bank comenzaron a ofrecer servicios de divisas limitados el 1 de abril, informó People Daily el 2 de abril de 2002.

La extensión de los servicios de divisas a los nuevos bancos pone fin a un monopolio de diez años de tales servicios por el Banco de China (BOC) estatal.

Los nuevos servicios de divisas de ICBC están limitados a 14 categorías de solicitantes nacionales para propósitos incluyendo viajes en el extranjero y estudios en el extranjero, dijo el diario.

Un total de 64 sucursales del banco en Beijing y las provincias de Fujian, Zhejiang y Jiangsu proporcionarán el nuevo servicio, según el informe.

CITIC Banco Industrial está ofreciendo servicios de divisas en Beijing, Fuzhou, Hangzhou y Nanjing, dijo el Beijing Youth Daily.

CITIC Industrial Bank es una filial de China International Trust & Investment Corp, que posee el 55,08 por ciento de CITIC Ka Wah Bank, así como un 28,4 por ciento de HIC CITIC Pacific Ltd.

La extensión de los servicios de divisas nacionales a los dos bancos fue una respuesta a la nueva competencia de los bancos extranjeros que ofrecen servicios de divisas limitados, dijo el Beijing Youth Daily.

El mes pasado, las sucursales de Citibank y Citibank del Banco de Asia Oriental Ltd de Citigroup Inc recibieron licencias para proveer servicios de moneda extranjera a ciudadanos chinos.

Las sucursales de bancos extranjeros anteriores estaban limitadas a proporcionar transacciones en moneda extranjera a compañías extranjeras ubicadas en la parte continental.

Sin embargo, los acuerdos de la Organización Mundial del Comercio de China le obligan a abrir gradualmente su sector financiero a la competencia extranjera a finales de 2006.

Un miembro del cuerpo de la juventud murió en la violenta encuesta legislativa celebrada en el estado de Rivers el fin de semana, anunció el Cuerpo Nacional de Servicios Juveniles (NYSC).

En una declaración emitida por la dirección de NYSC el lunes por la noche, el nombre de la víctima fue dado como Okonta Dumebi Samuel con el número de cuerpo RV / 15B / 5539.

Okonta, un huérfano, fue asesinado por pistoleros desconocidos en Ahoada West LGA.

Otros dos miembros del cuerpo con él en el momento del incidente escaparon de la escena con la ayuda de agentes de seguridad, agregó el comunicado.

Okonta, que sirvió en el GCSS Ukpeliede, fue descrito como un joven patriótico por la gerencia de NYSC que dijo que su asesinato era primitivo, bárbaro e impío y debía ser fuertemente condenado por todos los nigerianos bien intencionados.

Se comprometió a trabajar con los organismos pertinentes para garantizar que los autores de esta atrocidad & # 8221; Son pescadas y hechas para hacer frente a la ira completa de la ley.

Rivers Re-run, NYSC condena asesinato de un miembro del Cuerpo Juvenil

Adebiyi Adedapo en Abuja

La dirección del Cuerpo Nacional de Servicios Juveniles (NYSC, por sus siglas en inglés) anunció la muerte de un miembro del Cuerpo, Okonta Dumebi Samuel, con (RV / 15B / 5539), quien murió durante las elecciones de re-ejecución celebradas en Rivers State el fin de semana.

Según una declaración de NYSC, Okonta, quien, hasta su fallecimiento, sirvió en el GCSS Ukpeliede, fue asesinado a tiros por algunos pistoleros desconocidos en el área de gobierno local de Ahoada West.

El asesinato de este joven patriótico, huérfano, es primitivo, bárbaro e impío; Y debe ser fuertemente condenado por todos los nigerianos bien intencionados, & # 8221; Según el comunicado.

Sin embargo, NYSC prometió asegurar que los asesinos de Okonta no quedaran impunes.

El NYSC trabajará con agencias relevantes para asegurar que los autores de este acto atroz sean pescados y hechos para enfrentar la ira completa de la ley. Consideramos la muerte de Okonta Samuel como una gran pérdida, no sólo para su familia inmediata, sino también para todos nosotros en la familia NYSC y toda la nación. Que el Dios Todopoderoso le conceda un descanso eterno, y dé a su familia inmediata y al resto de nosotros la fortaleza para soportar la pérdida irreparable.

Es una lástima, pero la forma en que pienso para asegurar que su muerte no sea en vano es cancelar totalmente las elecciones allí indefinidamente y asegurarse de que ese asiento, si es posible, permanece vacante para siempre. Creo que esto va a mostrar lo desesperado y perezoso que son los ríos.

Con el predominio de los inversionistas de cartera extranjeros en el mercado de acciones de la nación, United Capital Plc ha vinculado el repunte del mercado sostenible a la disposición de la política cambiaria del gobierno federal

Kayode Tinuoye, Jefe de Investigación de United Capital Plc, quien también pidió un aumento de la participación de los inversores locales en el mercado argumentó que la incertidumbre en torno a las divisas ha seguido afectando los sentimientos del mercado.

Explicó que, dado el predominio de los inversionistas de cartera extranjeros en el mercado, que se situó en el 54 por ciento en noviembre de 2015, existen fuertes indicios de que la disposición del Banco Central de Nigeria a inversionistas extranjeros sería un motor clave del movimiento de acciones en 2016.

Añadió que la volatilidad del mercado y la presión de venta ha sido impulsada principalmente por la fuga de capitales, señalando que había una mayor participación local para aislar el mercado interno de los shocks externos y volatilidades de la moneda.

En cuanto a las perspectivas de desempeño sectorial del año fiscal en curso, Tinuoye explicó que el desafiante ambiente de negocios podría limitar el pago de dividendos de la compañía para todo el año 2016, especialmente para el sector bancario.

"Teniendo en cuenta el predominio de los inversionistas de cartera extranjeros en el mercado nigeriano de acciones (54 por ciento de flujos totales en noviembre), creemos que la disposición de CBN a inversionistas extranjeros será un motor clave del movimiento de acciones en 2016,

"A precios de acciones bajas, los rendimientos de dividendos de las acciones de valor se están volviendo cada vez más atractivos. Normalmente, esto debería provocar el apoyo de los inversores institucionales locales, moderando así el impacto negativo de la inversión de FPI. FY-16, especialmente los bancos.

"La perspectiva sobre el desempeño de la compañía en 2016 sigue siendo débil articulada en parches rocosos y un ambiente de negocios desafiante. Para los bancos, a pesar de la reducción esperada en el costo de los fondos, las ganancias serán atenuadas por los menores rendimientos de los valores de inversión, así como por las limitaciones de los préstamos, mientras continúan con la degradación de la calidad de los activos.

Para el sector de bienes de consumo, señaló que si bien existían expectativas de crecimiento reticente de los ingresos en función de un menor entorno de tasas de interés, el costo excepcional, el enfoque del gobierno en el gasto social y la baja base de 2015, se esperaba una devaluación del naira y un encogimiento Las carteras de consumo representarían un riesgo para el desempeño del sector.

Tinuoye también explicó que los precios bajistas del petróleo y la expiración de los contratos de cobertura mantendrían el crecimiento de las ganancias para el petróleo y El sector del gas más o menos plana, mientras que los jugadores de la corriente descendente probablemente mostraría un desempeño positivo modesto.

Agregó que el sector industrial estaba preparado para registrar cifras positivas debido al enfoque del gobierno en la infraestructura y la inversión privada, aun cuando la expansión de la capacidad regional de los jugadores también apoyaría el crecimiento de las ganancias.

2 de febrero de 2016 7:16 am

El comercio de ayer vio EUR / USD dentro del rango de 1.0812-1.0915. El par cerró en 1.0896, avanzando 0.65% sobre una base diaria. Ha sido la décima ganancia en los últimos 21 días de negociación y también la más aguda desde el 7 de enero, cuando el par agregó 1,44%. El mínimo diario fue una prueba más baja de la baja desde el 29 de enero.

Hoy a las 7:15 GMT el EUR / USD subió un 0,08% para el día de negociación en 1.0905. El par tocó un máximo diario en 1.0919 a las 4:40 GMT, sobrepasando el nivel diario de R2, y un mínimo diario en 1.0886 durante la primera fase de la sesión comercial asiática.

El martes el comercio EUR / USD puede verse influido por los siguientes informes macroeconómicos, que se enumeran a continuación.

fundamentos

zona euro

Alemania & # 8211; Cambio en el desempleo, tasa de desempleo

El número de desempleados en Alemania probablemente disminuyó en 7.000 en enero, según la mediana de los pronósticos de expertos, tras otra caída de 14.000, informó en diciembre. Si es así, enero sería el cuarto mes consecutivo, cuando el número de desempleados era menor. Una disminución implica que el gasto de los consumidores puede ser más activo, mientras que el último está estrechamente relacionado con el crecimiento económico. Un aumento en el número de desempleados sugiere el escenario opuesto.

At the same time, the seasonally adjusted rate of unemployment in the country probably remained at 6.3% for the third straight month in January, according to market expectations. This has been the lowest rate on record.

The seasonally adjusted harmonized jobless rate remained at 4.5% for a fourth straight month in November. It has been the lowest rate since mid-1981. The number of unemployed persons was unchanged at 1.90 million in November compared to October, while employment was up 0.1% to 40.19 million persons during the same period.

The unemployment rate for people aged between 15 and 24 decreased to 7.0% in November from 7.1% in October, while falling from 7.3%, recorded in November 2014.

In case the number of people unemployed decreased more than projected and the unemployment rate met expectations or dropped further, this would strongly support demand for the euro. The Federal Statistics Office will release the official numbers at 8:55 GMT.

Italy – rate of unemployment

The rate of unemployment in Italy probably remained at 11.3% for a second consecutive month in December, according to the median forecast by experts. It has been the lowest rate since December 2012, when unemployment was reported at 11.2%. The number of unemployed people decreased by 48 000 to reach 2.871 million in November, while the number of people in employment went up by 36 000 to reach 22.480 million. Unemployment among people aged between 15 and 24 dropped to 38.1% in November from 39.3% in the prior month, according to the National Institute of Statistics. November’s youth unemployment has been the lowest since June 2013.

In case the rate of unemployment in the country met expectations or fell even further, this might provide a limited-to-moderate support to the single currency. Istat is to release the official report at 9:00 GMT.

Eurozone – rate of unemployment

The rate of unemployment in the Eurozone probably remained at 10.5% for a second straight month in December, according to market expectations. It has been the lowest rate since October 2011, when the region’s unemployment was reported at 10.2%.

In November the lowest rates of unemployment were registered in Germany (4.5%), the Czech Republic (4.6%) and Malta (5.1%), while the highest rates were in Greece (24.6%) and Spain (21.4%).

The EU 28 unemployment rate was reported at 9.1% in November, down from 9.2% in October and down from 10% in November a year earlier. It has been the lowest rate since July 2009.

According to data by Eurostat, 22.159 million people in the EU28, of whom 16.924 million were in the Euro area, were unemployed in November. Compared to October, the number of people unemployed decreased by 179 000 in the European Union and by 130 000 in the Eurozone. Compared to November 2014, unemployment was lower in the EU28 (a decrease by 2.146 million), while unemployed people in the Euro area were 1.573 million fewer.

Unemployed are considered to be all persons aged between 15 and 74, who have not been hired during the survey period, have been actively seeking employment during the past four weeks and are able to accept any job proposition right away or in two weeks time. A drop in unemployment in the region would have a strong bullish effect on the single currency. The official report by Eurostat is due out at 10:00 GMT.

YOUTH DEVELOPMENT

Wherever they’re from, youth between the ages of 12 and 19 face some of the most difficult years in their lives. The challenging physical and social changes these years bring can make youth more vulnerable to negative peer pressure and more likely to experiment with drugs and alcohol.

For many youth, the paths they choose during these formative years will set the course of their lives.

How We Help

Children International's Youth Development Programs are designed to give youth positive options and opportunities. We engage youth with social groups and constructive activities that help them successfully navigate the transition into adulthood. Some of these include:

Youth Health Corps (YHC): Our unique YHC program educates participants on important health and safety issues and trains them to become peer educators who pass that information along to at least 45-50 other youth each year. In this way, the approximately 2,400 teens who make up the YHC reach well over 100,000 youth each year. Spreading critical information on subjects like reproductive health, sanitation, hygiene and STD and addiction prevention in their communities plays an important role in helping improve the overall health of the children and families who live there.

Leadership Training: Group activities and lessons help youth develop effective communication skills and become responsible, assertive and self-confident leaders.

Youth Council: All 16 of our democratically-elected Youth Councils receive annual Youth Empowerment Funds of $20,000. The Youth Councils are empowered to spend these funds on community-improvement projects like park and shore restoration programs, the construction of clean-water sources, additional toilets at public health clinics, and more.

Youth Reporters: Our newest youth initiative empowers youth by giving them a voice while improving their communication skills and providing opportunities to master the tools and technologies necessary for online reportage.

More of the Story

Each year, we survey the youth in our programs and analyze the results. The outcome is our annual Youth Report Card. This comprehensive report provides detailed evidence that youth graduating from our program are more capable, confident and ready to improve their lives and communities.

Q2-2016: News Corp lower ad, book publishing revenues, forex lower overall revenue

BENGALURU: Strong growth in the Digital Real Estate Services segment at News Corporation (News Corp) was offset by lower advertising revenues at the News and Information Services segment and lower consumer revenues at the Book Publishing segment for the quarter ended 31 December, 2015 (Q2-2016, current quarter). News Corp reported year-on-year (YoY) 4.3 per cent revenue decline in the current quarter at $2,161 million as compared to $2,258 million. As a matter of fact, except for News Corp’s Digital Real Estate Services segment, all other segments reported lower revenues and EBIDTA.

News Corp’s News and Information Services segment revenue fell 8.1 per cent YoY in Q2-2016 to $1,400 million as compared to $1,523 million, while revenue from its Book Publishing segment declined 4.9 per cent YoY in the current quarter to $446 million as compared to $469 million. Digital Real Estate Services segment revenue increased 35.1 per cent YoY to $208 million from $154 million. The decline in total reported revenues includes a negative impact from foreign currency fluctuations of $141 million says the company.

News Corp reported Q2-2016 Total Segment EBITDA of $280 million, a 20 per cent decline as compared to $352 million in Q2-2015. Adjusted Total Segment EBITDA in Q2-2016 declined 16.8 per cent to $317 million, compared to $381 million in the corresponding prior year quarter. The company says that continued strength at the Digital Real Estate Services segment was more than offset by the declines at the News and Information Services, Book Publishing, and Cable Network Programming segments. Negative foreign currency fluctuations reduced Total Segment EBITDA by $25 million as compared to Q2-2015.

News Corp CEO Robert Thomson said, “News Corp is evolving rapidly into a more digital and increasingly global company with a diverse revenue mix that we believe will drive long-term growth in profits and shareholder returns. The company is, by most measures, the world's largest player in digital real estate, a position certainly enhanced by the rapid growth in the US of realtor. com.”

“In our News and Information Services segment, print advertising remained challenged, but we are seeing growth in digital advertising and circulation revenues. We are particularly focused on cost reductions and sharing services around News Corp to streamline operations at the newspapers in Australia and the UK,” he added.

“Unruly, the viral digital advertising company acquired late last year, has been swiftly integrated into many of our companies, bringing cutting-edge metrics and a savvy social sensibility. We are developing advertising products for clients keen to benefit from the rise of video and mobile, and taking advantage of our world-class mastheads which are increasingly powerful platforms, editorially and commercially,” Thomson said.

“Macro-economic conditions in most of our markets have not been auspicious, and foreign exchange fluctuations have been particularly volatile, but we believe in the enduring value of our prestigious brands and the sound logic of our digital strategy,” he added.

News and Information Services segment

News and Information Services segment revenues have been mentioned above. News Corp says that total segment advertising revenues declined 12 per cent, primarily due to weakness in print advertising, negative foreign currency fluctuations and lower revenues at News America Marketing, partially offset by growth in digital advertising revenues, including at Dow Jones, where digital revenues accounted for approximately one-third of advertising revenues in the quarter. Circulation and subscription revenues declined five per cent, due to negative foreign currency fluctuations. Growth in paid digital subscribers in the US and Australia, higher subscription pricing and selected cover price increases offset print volume declines and the impact from the change in the digital strategy at The Sun. At Dow Jones, the company continued to see modest growth of professional information business revenues.

Segment EBITDA decreased $58 million in Q2-2016 to $158 million as compared $216 million in Q2-2015. Adjusted Segment EBITDA decreased 22 per cent compared to the prior year, driven by lower advertising revenues, higher promotion and marketing costs in the UK and transaction costs of $5 million related to the acquisition of Unruly.

Book Publishing segment

Book Publishing segment revenues mentioned above declined due to lower e-book sales, negative foreign currency fluctuations and lower revenues from the Divergent series, partially offset by strong sales in General Books resulting from the popularity of The Pioneer Woman Cooks: Dinnertime by Ree Drummond. Digital sales represented 16 per cent of consumer revenues for the quarter. Segment EBITDA for the quarter decreased $20 million, or 26 per cent, from the prior year, primarily due to the factors noted above. Adjusted revenues decreased three per cent and Adjusted Segment EBITDA decreased 25 per cent compared to the prior year.

Digital Real Estate Services segment

Digital Real Estate Services revenues mentioned above increased primarily driven by the inclusion of the results of Move, acquired in November 2014. At REA Group Limited, increased revenues from greater residential listing depth product penetration were offset by negative foreign currency fluctuations. Segment EBITDA in the quarter increased $16 million, or 28. per cent to $73 million, compared to the $57 million in the corresponding prior year quarter, primarily due to the increased revenues noted above and the absence of one-time transaction costs of $16 million related to the acquisition of Move, partially offset by negative foreign currency fluctuations.

Cable Network Programming segment

In Q2-2016, revenues decreased $6 million, or 5.4 per cent YoY to $106 million, compared to $112 million in the corresponding prior year quarter. Adjusted revenues increased 10 per cent, primarily due to higher affiliate and advertising revenues. Segment EBITDA in Q2-2016 decreased $15 million, or 27.8 per cent YoY to $39 million from $54 million as compared with the corresponding prior year period. Adjusted Segment EBITDA declined 22 per cent, primarily due to expected higher programming rights and production costs related to the Rugby World Cup of $11 million. Negative foreign currency fluctuations reduced reported revenues and Segment EBITDA for the second quarter of fiscal 2016 by $17 million and $3 million, respectively, as compared to the prior year.

Reported revenue for Q2-2016 was $1 million as compared to nil in Q2-2015. Segment EBITDA in the quarter improved by $5 million compared to the prior year, primarily due to lower fees and costs, net of indemnification, related to the claims and investigations arising out of certain conduct at The News of the World (UK Newspaper Matters). The net expense related to the UK Newspaper Matters was $7 million for the Q2-2016 as compared to $13 million for Q2-2016.

Through the programme, youths get to learn from the life experiences of the elderly, make friends with like-minded youths, and gain skills and knowledge in befriending and engaging the elderly.

PROJECT EMPATHIZE

Team Doraemons has come together to embark on a community outreach project hoping to foster a strong rapport with the clients of the Movement for the Intellectually Disabled of Singapore (MINDS) Tampines Training and Development Centre (TTDC), whom are Persons with Intellectual Disability (PWIDs).

MAP-21 Section 1524 - Youth Service and Conservation Corps Questions & Answers

1. What is the purpose of the Youth Service and Conservation Corps provision?

The concept for using youth corps in Federal-aid highway program projects originated from:

TEA-21 §1108(g) relating to Transportation Enhancement (TE) projects.

TEA-21 §1112(e) and SAFETEA-LU §1109(f) relating to RTP projects.

Youth corps organizations have benefited many recreational trail projects, which are usually administered through State resource agencies that have ongoing relationships with youth corps organizations. MAP-21 Section 1524 expanded the potential for federally-funded transportation projects to use youth corps organizations.

2. What are Qualified Youth Service and Conservation Corps?

Section 1524 of MAP-21 defines "qualified youth service or conservation corps" as those that are defined at 42 U. S.C. 12572(a)(2) and 42 U. S.C. 12656(c)(3). 42 U. S.C. 12572(a)(2) refers to the "Healthy Futures Corps," which is designed to identify and meet unmet health needs in communities. 42 U. S.C. 12656(c)(3) refers to the "urban youth corps," which means any program established by a State or local government or by a nonprofit organization that--

is capable of offering meaningful, full-time, productive work for individuals between the ages of 16 and 25, inclusive, in an urban or public works or transportation setting;

gives participants a mix of work experience, basic and life skills, education, training, and support services; y

provides participants with the opportunity to develop citizenship values and skills through service to their communities and the United States.

3. How do we find qualified youth service and conservation corps?

Youth service and conservation corps operate in all States and the District of Columbia. There are also national organizations that qualify as youth service and conservation corps. The Corps Network lists Service and Conservation Corps by State at www. corpsnetwork. org/impact/corps-by-state .

4. What kinds of projects are eligible under the provisions of Section 1524?

MAP-21 Section 1524 requires the USDOT/FHWA to ". encourage the States and regional transportation planning agencies to enter into contracts and cooperative agreements with qualified youth service or conservation corps. to perform appropriate projects eligible under sections 162, 206, 213, and 217 of title 23, United States Code, and under section 1404 of the SAFETEA-LU (119 Stat. 1228)." These programs are the National Scenic Byways Program (23 U. S.C. 162), Recreational Trails Program (23 U. S.C. 206), Transportation Alternatives Program (23 U. S.C. 213), Bicycle Transportation and Pedestrian Walkways (23 U. S.C. 217), and the Safe Routes to School Program (Section 1404 of SAFETEA-LU).

5. What do the Section 1524 Requirements mean?

Section 1524(b)(1) requires the Secretary to establish a living allowance or rate of pay for youth service and conservation corps as required under State law or at an amount not to exceed the maximum living allowance authorized by 42 U. S.C. 12594 (as implemented by Part 4 -- Corporation for National and Community Service of OMB Circular A-133 Compliance Supplement 2012, available at www. whitehouse. gov/omb/circulars/a133_compliance_supplement_2012 ).

Section 1524(b)(2) exempts contracts and cooperative agreements with youth service and conservation corps from Federal-aid highway program contracting requirements under 23 U. S.C. 112. A State or regional transportation planning agency may sole-source contracts and cooperative agreements to qualified youth service and conservation corps for work undertaken for byway, recreational trail, transportation alternatives, bicycle and pedestrian, or SRTS projects.

6. Does Section 1524 supersede the requirement of 23 U. S.C. 213(e) relating to Treatment of Projects?

Sí. To the extent the requirements of 23 U. S.C. 213(e) relating to Treatment of Projects conflicts with the express provisions in section 1524, the provisions in section 1524 prevail. There are differences between MAP-21 Section 1524 and the newly established 23 U. S.C. 213(e) under TAP regarding compliance with Federal-aid highway requirements. MAP-21 Section 1524 provides exceptions to certain requirements regarding pay rates and contracting requirements for projects using contracts and cooperative agreements with qualified youth service or conservation corps for certain projects.

7. May a State set aside TAP funds for qualified youth service and conservation corps?

No. MAP-21 does not authorize the State to set-aside TAP funds for youth service and conservation corps. The requirement for a competitive process for TAP in 23 U. S.C. 213(c)(4)(A) applies to all TAP funds remaining after the RTP set-aside. The State (or MPO, as applicable) must first select projects through a competitive process; then the State or project sponsor may choose to enter into contracts or cooperative agreements with qualified youth corps consistent with State contracting or cooperative agreement procedures. Youth service and conservation corps contracts or cooperative agreements are not subject to the requirements of section 112 of title 23, United States Code.

MAP-21 Section 1524 requires the DOT to ". encourage the States and regional transportation planning agencies to enter into contracts and cooperative agreements with qualified youth service or conservation corps. to perform appropriate projects eligible under sections 162, 206, 213, and 217 of title 23, United States Code, and under section 1404 of the SAFETEA-LU (119 Stat. 1228)." Section 1524 provides exceptions for certain requirements regarding pay rates and contracting requirements for projects using qualified youth service or conservation corps. However, Section 1524 does not address project selection.

States and MPOs have options to encourage eligible project sponsors to enter into contracts and cooperative agreements with qualified youth service and conservation corps, including:

A project application process may describe advantages of using youth service and conservation corps and provide applicants with youth corps information resources.

A competitive selection process may include criteria giving priority to projects that incorporate youth service and conservation corps.

A State may use Section 1524 for any project eligible under sections 162, 206, 213, and 217 of title 23, United States Code, regardless of Federal-aid funding program.

Wow, wonderful weblog layout! How long have you been blogging for? you make running a blog look easy. The total look of your website is wonderful, as smartly as the content!

With less than a week left in what has been the best year for the S&P 500 since 1997, we have reviewed our top Wall Street firms for their stocks priced under $10 that may have gigantic upside potential for 2014. Investors that carve out part of their investment capital for these top stocks to buy may be in for a solid start to the new year.

As a rule, Wall Street brokers and financial advisors typically try to steer their clients away from stocks that trade under $10, and they avoid like the plague stocks that trade for less than $5. There are myriad reasons, not the least of which is the broker or advisor faces scrutiny from the compliance manager.

The flip side to these generalities is that stocks trading under $10 can offer investors the ability to accumulate relatively large position in their portfolios. These companies often have the highest risk-reward profiles, and often offer investors the most perceived leverage as well. Here are some of the top analyst stocks to buy for 2014 that trading under $10.

Alcatel-Lucent S. A. (NYSE: ALU) remains a top name to buy at Merrill Lynch. The ill-fated merger between the two companies has taken many years and many CEOs to find any traction. However, the big carriers are starting to increase orders and the company is getting a nice share of them. Merrill Lynch has a $6.58 price target. The consensus estimate is at $4. The stock closed Thursday at $4.34.

Cyan Inc. (NYSE: CYNI) has missed two quarters in a row following its initial public offering. In addition, management has materially lowered expectations for 2014 growth. On the positive side, the stock now discounts a lot of bad news and may provide solid upside as business improves. The company provides carrier-grade networking solutions that transform disparate and inefficient legacy networks into open, high-performance networks. The J. P. Morgan price target is $8, and the consensus is at $6.75. Cyan closed Thursday at $4.70.

Galena Biopharma Inc. (NASDAQ: GALE) may be the home run that biotech investors are looking for. With an FDA approved pain medication, a partnership with generic giant Teva Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: TEVA) and a superior pipeline, the stock may be an acquisition target. Aegis Capital has a $5 price target on the stock, while the consensus is at $4.50. Galena closed on Thursday at $4.07. In recent trading the stock has seen huge volume increases. Big investors may be building a big position.

Glu Mobile Inc. (NASDAQ: GLUU) is a top mobile gaming stock to buy at Cowen and Company for 2014. The company releases its video games internationally via multiple platforms, including iOS, Android, Amazon, Windows Phone and Google Chrome. Embodying the “freemium” model, games created by Glu are typically free to play. Glu generates revenue through in-game micro-transactions consisting of $1.99 or less. The Cowen price target for the stock is $5 and is the highest on Wall Street. The consensus target is posted at $4. Glu Mobile closed Thursday at $3.76. So a move to the Cowen target would represent a 40% gain for investors.

Infinera Corp. (NASDAQ: INFN) is a company that J. P. Morgan sees benefiting from the continued increase optical spending. FBR Capital initiated coverage on the stock last week with an Overweight rating. The J. P. Morgan price target is $13, and the consensus comes in at $12.75. Infinera closed Thursday at $9.71.

Nokia Corp. (NYSE: NOK) is a top name to buy at Merrill Lynch. A former mega cap European leader, Nokia recently sold its handset business Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ: MSFT) for what was considered a low 5.5 billion euros. Even though it is selling a business representing half of its sales, Nokia’s share price has doubled since the deal was announced in early September. Investors may well be more optimistic, but they also have big questions about the future direction of the new Nokia. Merrill Lynch has a $9.65 price target on the stock. The Thomson/First Call estimate is posted at $7.67. Nokia closed Thursday at $7.89.

Novavax Inc. (NASDAQ: NVAX) makes the Piper Jaffray list of top stock o buy for 2014 and is also a buy at Lazard and FBR Capital and made our five big analysts stock picks for 2014 list. This clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company uses recombinant nanoparticle technology to develop vaccines for a wide variety of infectious diseases. The company presently has six vaccine candidates undergoing clinical trials, with a seventh (rabies) being readied for a Phase I study later this year. The Piper Jaffray price target is $7. The consensus estimate is at $4 and the stock closed Thursday at $5.13.

ON Semiconductor Corp. (NASDAQ: ONNN) is another tech name to buy at Merrill Lynch. The company is driving energy efficient innovations, empowering design engineers to reduce global energy use. The company offers a comprehensive portfolio of energy efficient power and signal management, logic, discrete and custom solutions to help customers solve their unique design challenges in automotive, communications, computing, consumer, industrial, LED lighting, medical, military/aerospace and power supply applications. The Merrill Lynch price target for the stock is $9, and the consensus is at $8.80. ON closed Thursday at $7.10.

Sirius XM Radio Inc. (NASDAQ: SIRI) continues to draw new subscribers with its programming, and it is also a top stock to buy at Merrill Lynch for 2014. Despite challenges from other companies offering audio programming, Sirius XM has continued to be a strong player despite the fact that the stock has the highest short interest on Wall Street. Merrill Lynch has a $5 target, and the consensus target stands at $4.45. The stocks closed Thursday at $3.59.

Zogenix Inc. (NASDAQ: ZGNX) is a top name to buy at Oppenheimer for 2014. The FDA recently approved its top new drug Zohydro. The drug is a timed-release form of hydrocodone, which is one of the most highly prescribed pain medications in the world. The Zogenix drug contains no acetaminophen, which has been proven to cause liver damage. This is a boon to patients suffering from oncology-related pain, as often radiation therapy weakens or damages the liver. The Oppenheimer price target for the stock is set at $5, the same as the consensus price target. Zogenix closed Thursday at at $3.34.

With an outstanding year almost in the book for investors, what is the plan for 2014? Thomas Lee, the chief equity strategist at J. P. Morgan, believes that we have entered into a secular bull market that could return double-digit gains again in 2014. Augmenting a quality portfolio of blue chips and solid growth names with some of the top names priced under $10 to buy may add the alpha to portfolios. That could make 2014 another stellar investing year.

Omnicom Posts Strong Organic Growth for Q4, Forex Will Remain a Hurdle in 2015

Feb 10, 2015 11:47 am ET

Omnicom, the first of the major ad holding companies to report year-end results, on Tuesday better-than-expected revenue growth for the fourth quarter, helped by its programmatic business, new business wins and strong performance in the U. S. and the U. K.

The owner of agencies such as BBDO, DDB and TBWA said organic revenue — which strips out acquisitions, foreign exchange and other impacts — rose 5.9% for the latest quarter. North America, which represents more than half of Omnicom’s revenue, experienced organic growth of 8.3% for the quarter, driven by the company’s media business and solid results in its public relations and specialty healthcare businesses. The U. K. also exhibited strong growth in the quarter, with organic revenue up 6.2%.

“Our industry is becoming increasingly complex and our clients are looking to us for ways to navigate this rapidly changing landscape,” Chief Executive John Wren said in a conference call with analysts. “We are continually expanding our capabilities to meet our clients’ needs. Technology is providing the tools and we are providing the brains.”

Overall, the company’s earnings for the quarter rose 9.7% to $329.5 million, or $1.30 a year, while revenue was up 3.4% to $4.2 billion.

However, sharp declines in the value of foreign currencies against the U. S. dollar hurt Omnicom’s revenues across all of its international operations. Foreign currency fluctuations decreased the company’s revenue by 3.1% in the fourth quarter. These headwinds could have a negative impact of 5.5% on revenues for the first quarter and 5% for 2015, the company said. Adjusted margin for the quarter was flat from the prior-year quarter at 14.5%.

“FX is certainly going to pose a bit of a challenge for us from a margin perspective,” said Chief Financial Officer Phil Angelastro, noting the company isn’t yet projecting or committing to a margin target for 2015 though it expects to maintain its margins in the first quarter. It’s still too early to predict what will happen to foreign exchange rates for the rest of the year, he said.

The collapse of Omnicom’s proposed $35 billion merger with French rival Publicis was the biggest story in the advertising sector of 2014. Like other players in the advertising industry, Omnicom faces increasing competition from a new crop of tech, digital and data analytics specialists who claim they can do some of the tasks that agencies have long handled. Still, Omnicom has continued to post strong organic growth rates this year and is building its digital capabilities.

Omnicom’s programmatic business contributed about $20 million to the company’s growth for the quarter and roughly $140 million for the year, company executives said. Programmatic, however, represents less than 2% for the company’s revenue for the full year. The broader media business could again be an outperformer this year, Mr. Wren said.

“The complexity of the marketplace has caused people to pay more attention to media and thinking about media,” Mr. Wren said. With the plethora of channels where a brand can place its messaging, “focusing on getting that right is becoming increasingly important…. We won, I believe more than our fair share of media accounts and plenty assignments over the last several years and it’s being reflected in the numbers now.”

For 2015, Mr. Wren said he is “cautiously optimistic” and expects organic growth of about 3.5%, below the company’s 2014 organic growth rate of 5.7%. Clientes & # 8217; ad budgets are growing consistently with GDP growth in most markets, he added.

Dogara Launches Discount card for Students, Youth Corps Members

Damilola Oyedele in Abuja

The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Hon. Yakubu Dogara would soon launch a discount card designed to subsidise expenses on goods and services for Nigerian students and youth corps members.

Targeted at about 23 million youth, the Nigerian Students and Youth Corpers Discount Card (NSYDC), an initiative of a private firm, Bridge Concept, has already received the endorsement of the Committee of Vice Chancellors and the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS).

In partnership with hundreds of goods and services providers, bearers of the card would receive different ranges of discounts, a practice which is common across the world,

One of the drivers of the concept, and a former member of the House, Hon. Bimbo Daramola told THISDAY that it became necessary to come up with the concept in the face of prevailing economic realities in the country.

“The effect of our current economic realities on our youths is harsh, so it is our responsibility to look for safety nets to shield them from crimes and criminality. While doing that, we should not lose focus on how to empower the students and youth corps members to keep from deviant behaviours.”

“That was what brought the idea of the online discount platform. We already have partners from all sectors of the economy, from hospitality to tourism and others, whereby any of our subscribers will enjoy a discount from the goods and services he or she is seeking to enjoy,” Daramola added.

About 35,000 partners including students and corners are already benefitting from the service in the Federal Capital Territory, with plans to extend to other parts of the country almost immediately after the launch.

“Though it is new and first of its kind in Nigeria but it has been in existence in Europe and Americas for more than 3 decades. These are some of the privileges enjoyed by students and other youth groups in Europe and Americas that makes it appear like their society is extra perfect,” he added. Intensive efforts are however being made to ensure that the concept is not abused or exposed to fraud.

SAVVIEST $P€NDERS

Which clubs benefitted most from fluctuating exchange rates this summer? Check out our not-so-serious guide to the savviest Barclays Premier League dealers of the summer 2015 transfer window.

From big money fees for want-away midfielders such as Angel Di Maria to the high profile international deals made by Chelsea and Manchester City, Premier League clubs have once again been flaunting their cash in a bid to bolster their squads for the 2015/16 campaign. This summer has also seen a strong performance from the British pound, which has meant that English clubs have benefitted considerably from their overseas transfer deals compared to previous windows. READ MORE.

However, despite the rampant selling and spending, when it comes to keeping tabs on fluctuating exchange rates, there are some clubs who have appeared to be a lot shrewder than others. This summer the GBP/EUR exchange rate saw a period high of 1.437 and a period low of 1.357 . which means that if continental deals were timed right, English clubs could have saved millions of pounds on their overseas payments .

With this in mind, for a bit of fun, we’ve decided to analyse each Premier League club’s transfer activity and work out who have been the savviest dealers since the first fees were agreed back on 28th May . We all know each club has their own set financial guidelines around overseas spending and directors are probably well aware of the advantages of conducting deals during certain periods. However, it’s still interesting to see how much each club made or lost on these deals based on the exchange rates when the fees were agreed.

Total spent on international transfer fees during the 2015 summer transfer window by Premier League clubs…

Potential forex saving for all clubs

The total amount that could have been saved had transfers been completed on the date of the most favourable exchange rate during the transfer period:

The exchange rates league table

The below league table ranks every Premier League club by the total amount they saved or lost on their international deals since the first fees were agreed at the end of May. We’ve identified the average exchange rates from 28th May – 1st September and used them to work out which clubs have conducted their deals for better or worse rates. This has allowed us to discover the total amounts each club has hypothetically saved or lost for all their deals throughout the transfer period.

We’ve also pinpointed the optimum exchange rates for the transfer period to illustrate the maximum amount the clubs missed out on saving if they had conducted their deals during those peak days. Each club’s potential savings have been outlined on a separate column below.

Stop disturbing NYSC staff for concessional posting, DG warns

The Director General, National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), Brig-Gen. Johnson Olawumi, has disclosed that the scheme would no longer entertain request from people, seeking for concessional posting for their wards, relatives and friends for mobilisation during the NYSC mandatory one year national service.

Olawumi, who was speaking during the opening ceremony of the training organised by the NYSC and the Housing Developers, Cooperative Society for Corps Members at the NYSC Orientation Camp Kubwa, Abuja stated that the scheme has introduced a self deployment mechanism to enable the prospective corps members choose a state, where they wished to serve.

The DG while urging members of the public to stop disturbing staff of the scheme with their requests for concession, disclosed that their online platform was designed in a way that corps members that had a genuine reason for concession, would not be denied.

“The NYSC is barring concessional posting, we have to take that decision, because in the past, we allowed concessional posting for prospective corps members, who have medical challenge, or married women or pregnant women, but as it stands now, our online registration platform has been designed in such away to address the problem of those prospective corps members who have health challenges or married women.

“So, all they need to do is that, in the process of doing their registration, there are information these categories of people need to supply and upload the documents, our portal has been designed in such a way that it will automatically post them to where they filled.

“I want to say that in the past few weeks we have been receiving requests from various quarters; ministries, departments, agencies, private institutions and individuals seeking for concessional posting. I want to say that they are just wasting their time,” he stated.

The NYSC DG explained that the training for the corps members organised by the scheme and the Housing Developers’ Cooperative Society was aimed at training and graduating skilled manpower in housing sector.

“The inauguration of 200 youth corps members for training in special areas of labour need in the housing development sector reaffirms our pledge to give useful skills to every willing graduate partaking in the national service,” he said.

Your Teen Could Make $6,000 a Month Interning at Facebook

Facebook Inc. rolled out the red carpet for Michael Sayman when the social network hired him for a job that started last month, including flying him out to meet Chief Executive Officer Mark Zuckerberg.

Sayman, 17, brought his mom along on the trip. The position Facebook recruited him for: summer intern.

“When I got the e-mail saying -- oh my god -- Mark Zuckerberg wants to meet you, I had to make sure nobody was playing a prank on me,” Sayman, who wears braces and recently graduated from high school in Miami, said in an interview. “It was just incredible to be able to meet him.”

Landing top talent is getting so tough in Silicon Valley that technology companies are trying anything for an edge -- including hiring interns out of high school and boosting new recruits’ perks. Facebook said it just started wooing interns before their freshman year of college, while LinkedIn Corp. opened its summer program to high schoolers two years ago. Startups including Airbnb Inc. have also nabbed interns as young as 16 years old.

For the companies, it’s all about keeping up with Silicon Valley’s youth-oriented culture, especially as the young and technically inclined are sometimes encouraged to create their own startups instead of joining large organizations. Early Facebook investor Peter Thiel pays people under 20 years old $100,000 to quit school to pursue their passions. Others aspire to follow the path of Summly Ltd. founder Nick D’Aloisio, who became a millionaire at 17 last year when Yahoo! Inc. acquired his mobile application.

CEO Recognition

The importance of young hires is recognized at the very top. On an earnings call in May, LinkedIn CEO Jeff Weiner gave a shout-out to his 2014 intern class, saying “talent is our number one operating priority and our most important asset, and this incoming group will continue to add to our team.”

The drive for youth is being spurred by more people getting into technology at a younger age. With online coding tutorials and Web communities for collaborating on software, high schoolers don’t have to get a computer science degree before producing their own mobile apps. Many find their way to events such as hackathons and contests to find bugs in software, which attract whoever has the skills to compete.

Why Wait

James Anderson got his internship at Portland, Oregon-based Web startup Planet Argon LLC last year through just this route. At age 13, he went to a conference focused on the Ruby on Rails programming language and met Planet Argon’s founders on a company hike. He later asked for -- and got -- a summer internship before starting high school.

“I felt like age shouldn’t hold me back as long as I can code,” said Anderson, now 15 and a soon-to-be sophomore at Flintridge Preparatory School in La Cañada, California, who taught himself several programming languages and built apps based on online tutorials.

In the push for candidates, summer interns are getting treated better, too. It’s become standard for engineering interns to snag free housing, transportation and salaries of more than $6,000 a month, according to job-search site Glassdoor Inc. That compares with the $4,280 average monthly income for U. S. households in 2012, according to the U. S. Census Bureau. Of the top 10 companies paying the most for interns, all are technology companies except for Exxon Mobil Corp. Glassdoor said in February .

‘Insane’ Pay

“It’s kind of insane that as a 19- or 20-year-old, you can make more than the U. S. average income in a summer,” said Daniel Tahara, 21, who interned at big data startup Hadapt Inc. last summer and mobile-security startup Lookout Inc. the year before. Tahara, who declined to say how much he was paid, started a job with online storage startup Dropbox Inc. this month.

Other perks abound. Microsoft Corp. puts on a free concert for summer interns, last year booking Macklemore & Ryan Lewis and Deadmau5. Dropbox pays for interns’ parents to fly to San Francisco and learn about the company. Google Inc. provides standard workplace benefits to interns, including on-site massages and laundry service.

Unexpected Snafus

Yet underage interns can sometimes present hurdles for companies. Consider the extra paperwork that Airbnb, the San Francisco-based online room-rental service, had to take on last year when recruiters stumbled upon the Twitter profile of Conrad Kramer, who was 16.

“We actually had to get a work permit for him,” said Bern Coh, Airbnb’s head of intern recruiting, to comply with California law that requires permits for workers under 18. Kramer interned last summer, she said, and since then the company has “been keeping in touch with him various ways.”

Kramer didn’t respond to requests for comment.

Young interns also bring more parents into the picture. Doris Tong, senior manager of LinkedIn’s global campus recruiting, said she once met a contestant at a company hackathon who she recalls “was 12 or 15.”

“I remember needing to get a parental release because we hadn’t ever had that young a person participate,” Tong said.

Not all companies want younger interns. Google requires interns to be at least college freshmen and encourages them to finish their degrees. The Mountain View, California-based company finds other ways to look for recruits, said Kyle Ewing, Google’s head of global staffing.

“We do have a former professional ballerina, a former professional baseball player who used to throw a 90-mile-per-hour fastball, a student who raps in Chinese competitively,” Ewing said of the company’s interns. “Someone after their freshman year could have been programming since they were 10 and they may be ready for a technical internship, some may need more development and might not have been as self-trained as others, and come in for a different kind of program.”

Discovering Sayman

Facebook found Sayman last year because the teen was using the social network’s Parse developer tools to build a mobile game called 4Snaps. The game, which involves people taking four pictures and sending them to friends as clues for guessing a word, has more than 500,000 players.

Sayman taught himself to make mobile apps at 13, partly to help his mother, a driver for Lyft Inc. and father, an audio engineer, to pay the bills after a foreclosure four years ago.

“He was the one paying for everything in the house, at 13, 14, 15,” his mother, Cristina Sayman, said in a phone interview.

As downloads of 4Snaps climbed last year -- at one point becoming the top word game in Apple Inc.’s App Store -- Facebook’s Parse team contacted Sayman to feature the app on the company blog. They also asked him to make a video explaining how the app was built.

The video, which Sayman made in his pajamas, was shown to Facebook’s entire staff in September. It got the attention of the intern recruiter, who told the teen about the summer program.

Eyes Peeled

Facebook’s head of global recruiting, Miranda Kalinowski, said there’s “no hard and fast rule” on intern ages at the Menlo Park, California-based company, though it typically tries to meet college freshmen and recruit from universities.

“The point is we’re always on the lookout for really top talent,” she said.

In November, Facebook flew Sayman out to meet Zuckerberg. The two discussed 4Snaps, while his mother marveled at the Web company’s headquarters where her son could get his hair cut, his laundry done and eat whenever he wanted for free.

“They have plenty of food, everything for free, they just have to focus and work,” Cristina Sayman said.

Sayman, who’s working with the Parse team this summer, said he isn’t sure if he’ll go to college. He’s getting into his life in Silicon Valley, including snapping a selfie last month with Apple CEO Tim Cook.

“If Facebook were to extend my offer for a full-time position I would definitely take that,” Sayman said. “It’s my dream job.”

Green Corps Program

Youth Green Corps is a partnership between Seattle Goodwill Industries and Seattle Department of Parks and Recreation. It is a nine-month work readiness program that connects and engages disconnected young adults, ages 18 through 24, who are not working or in school, with opportunities to obtain and maintain a family-supporting career. The overall goals for the program are to provide work experience, college exposure, and future planning so that youth completing the program are either placed in jobs or attend programs at local community colleges. The Seattle Department of Parks and Recreation provides on-the-job training and work experience in restoration and trail maintenance practices for the Pacific Northwest ecology.

FEMA Corps Team Members Are the Modern Day Hitler Youth - Fiction!

Summary of eRumor:

This is a forwarded email that contains an article that compares a group of American youths who recently graduated from the FEMA Corps program to Hitler Youth. The email also alleges that the Department of Homeland Security is raising an army and ordered billions of rounds of ammunition.

The origin of the eRumor comes from an October 7, 2012 article from the Whiteout Press but these are the ramblings of someone who appears to know very little about the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and World War II history of Nazi Germany.

According to their website, FEMA Corps is a program that creates a pool of trained team members ranging from ages 18 to 24 to assist in disaster recovery. The mission of this program is to establish a unit of 1,600 service corps members dedicated to disaster preparedness, response, and recovery.

The benefit of this program is to prepare participants “for careers in emergency management and other related fields, building depth in the emergency management community.” The first 480 members began training in August 2012 and became ready for deployment in September 2012. The next training program begins in Winter 2013.

FEMA Corps members are compensated for their time. According to the FAQ on their website, “FEMA Corps members receive a living allowance of approximately $4,000 for the 10 months of service (about $200 every two weeks before taxes), housing, meals, limited medical benefits” and members can receive up to an additional $400 a month for childcare. After the first 10 month term of service there is an option to extend for a second year.

Comparison to Hitler Youth

Hitler Youth were created in the 1920’s and targeted boys and girls from the ages of 10 to 18. It began as a voluntary program but in 1936, after Adolf Hitler came into power the program became compulsory. According to the Historylearingsite. the “task of the boys section was to prepare the boys for military service. For girls, the organization prepared them for motherhood.” Members of FEMA Corps do not fall into to this age range nor are they trained or prepared for the military.

The photo in the forwarded email depicting a young team of FEMA Corps members fully armed and ready to respond is inaccurate.

According to a May 13, 2009 article in the New York Times the group in the photo are Explorer Scouts in a simulated counter terrorism training exercise, which occurred in California’s Imperial County under the leadership of local law enforcement and Border Patrol.

The article said, “The Explorers program, a coeducational affiliate of the Boy Scouts of America that began 60 years ago, is training thousands of young people in skills used to confront terrorism, illegal immigration and escalating border violence — an intense ratcheting up of one of the group’s longtime missions to prepare youths for more traditional jobs as police officers and firefighters.”

The writer of the eRumor also alleged that the DHS is raising an army and ordered billions of rounds of ammunition. The DHS oversees agencies that conduct law enforcement, military missions, and immigration enforcement.

In a February 14, 2013 article by Fox News. it was disclosed that DHS training centers have used as much as 15 million rounds annually for training exercises and practice on shooting ranges.

The article also said that the DHS plans to purchase 1.6 billion rounds of ammunition for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), calling it “the federal government’s second largest criminal investigative agency.”

But ICE is not the only armed agency under the Department of Homeland Security.

The U. S. Secret Service, the intelligence agency that was originally under the Department of the Treasury has the responsibility of protecting the President and dignitaries. This agency has been under the blanket of the DHS since March 1, 2003. One agency under the DHS that could be considered to be a major user of weapons and ammunition is the United States Coast Guard.

The United States Coast Guard (USCG) is on loan to the DHS from the Department of Transportation and has enough fire power to protect U. S. ports, chase and apprehend pirates and smugglers and assist in the protection of our military assets and facilities in the Persian Gulf.

The USCG lists 212 aircraft, various vessels ranging in boats from 18 feet to 47 feet along with a fleet of cutters ranging from 65 feet to 179 feet. The USCG also performs search and rescue for mariners in peril on the water.

The USCG H-65 Dolphin helicopter in the photo above is usually armed with Single 7.62mm M240B/H machine gun, a 7.62mm shoulder-fired precision weapon and a .50-caliber shoulder-fired precision weapon.

USCG Cutter Stratton pictured above is one of the newest ships in the fleet can carry USCG Helicopters and has an armament of 57mm Bofors Gun, 1 Phalanx, a CIWS 1B 20mm, four 50 caliber machine guns, as well as two M240B light machine guns. The cutter is also capable of launching 25 Foot Defender Class Boats with gun mounts both forward and aft.

Other agencies under the DHS, according to their organizational chart. are U. S. Customs & Boarder Protection, U. S. Citizenship & Immigration Services, U. S. Immigrations & Customs Enforcement, U. S. Secret Service, and Transportation Security Administration. Each agency has members who carry and are trained to use weapons.

The High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicles (HMMWV or “Humvee”) are real and some agencies receive training on these armored vehicles designated for Special Response Teams by the DHS. The above photo shows members of U. S. Immigrations & Customs Enforcement in a special training exercise involving armored vehicles.

Also, FEMA is the training agency for first responders from the local level to agencies under the DHS. So that all agencies speak the same language at the scene of a disaster the Incident Command System was developed for all levels of government as well as private sector and by many nongovernmental organizations.

Scary! FEMA Corps graduates first class. Might you wonder why?

Is this the Civilian Defence Force that Obama promised when he was elected ?

As large as our military ?

Full time and paid ?

Whiteout Press Homeland Security graduates first Corps of Homeland Youth October 7, 2012. Vicksburg. The federal government calls them FEMA Corps. But they conjure up memories of the Hitler Youth of 1930’s Germany. Regardless of their name, the Dept of Homeland Security has just graduated its first class of 231 Homeland Youth. Kids, aged 18-24 and recruited from the President’s AmeriCorp volunteers, they represent the first wave of DHS’s youth corps, designed specifically to create a full time, paid, standing army of FEMA Youth across the country.

On September 13, 2012, the Dept of Homeland Security graduated its first class of FEMA Corps youth, aka the Homeland Youth. Image courtesy of DHS. gov.

On September 13, 2012, the Department of Homeland Security graduated its first class of FEMA Corps first-responders. While the idea of having a volunteer force of tens of thousands of volunteers scattered across the country to aid in times of natural disasters sounds great, the details and timing of this new government army is somewhat curious, if not disturbing.

DHS raising an armed army The first problem one finds with this ‘new army’ is the fact that they are mere children. Yes, 18 is generally the legal age a person can sign a contract, join the military or be tried as an adult. But ask any parent – an 18, 20 or even a 24 year-old is still a naïve, readily-influenced kid.

The second problem with this announcement and program is its timing. Over the past two years, President Obama has signed a number of Executive Orders suspending all civil and Constitutional rights and turning over management of an America under Martial Law to FEMA. Also in that time, domestic federal agencies under DHS, including FEMA, have ordered billions of rounds of ammunition as well as the corresponding firearms. Admittedly, these new weapons and ammunition aren’t to be used in some far-off war or to fight forest fires in California, but right here on the streets of America.

Strange Armoured Fighting Vehicles

Individuals around the US have begun reporting the site of strange, new, heavily-armed FEMA fighting vehicles. What would a disaster relief agency like FEMA need with 2,500 brand new GLS armoured fighting vehicles? According to the agency’s own mandate, as well as President Obama’s recent Executive Order, the answer is ‘population control’ during a time of Martial Law.

One set of images made available by Rense. com shows trailer after trailer carrying these new DHS and FEMA armoured fighting vehicles, complete with machine gun slots. They’re labelled with the usual backward American flag and the title, ‘Homeland Security’. Below that and the DHS logo, it also reads, ‘Immigration & Customs Enforcement’. Joining those markings, the black vehicles with white lettering also display ‘POLICE/RESCUE’ on one side and ‘Special Response Team’ on the other.

FEMA Corps FEMA Deputy Administrator Rich Serino gave the keynote address at the ‘Induction Ceremony’ for the inaugural class of FEMA Corps members. According to the DHS website, ‘Corps members assist with disaster preparedness, response, and recovery activities, providing support in areas ranging from working directly with disaster survivors to supporting disaster recovering centres to sharing valuable disaster preparedness and mitigation information with the public.’

Serino describes what the first FEMA Corps class has accomplished so far, as well as where they’ll be going next: ‘Yesterday, we welcomed 231 energetic members into the first ever FEMA Corps class. The members just finished off their first month of training with our partners at the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS) and are one step closer to working in the field on disaster response and recovery. They will now head to FEMA’s Centre for Domestic Preparedness to spend the next two weeks training in their FEMA position-specific roles. Once they complete both the CNCS and FEMA training, these 231 dedicated FEMA Corps members will be qualified to work in one of a variety of disaster related roles, ranging from Community Relations to Disaster Recovery Centre support.’

Unlike most local disaster response teams who are volunteers, training periodically and only showing up when there’s a disaster, the FEMA Corps will be a paid, full time, standing army of government youth. FEMA Deputy Administrator Sarino goes on to explain, ‘The new members, who range in age from 18-24 years old, will contribute to a dedicated, trained, and reliable disaster workforce by working full-time for ten months on federal disaster response and recovery efforts.’

In closing his announcement of the first graduating class of FEMA Corps Youth, Sarino describes his and the agency’s vision of the future, one where ‘FEMA Corps sets the foundation for a new generation of emergency managers’.

As we detailed in the August 28 Whiteout Press article ‘History of DHS Ammunition Purchases’, federal emergency management agencies are looking more and more like a military army every day.

The federal government’s procurement website actually lists DHS’ requests for bids to supply it with ammunition and military weaponry. All of the orders listed in the above article, including the orders for hundreds of millions of rounds of ammunition, are publicly available at http://www. fbo. gov/ .

One look at a chart of DHS ammunition purchases over the past decade reveals a drastic spike in orders of bullets recently, totalling in the billions of rounds. Other charts available online show a similar drastic spike in the purchases of accompanying weaponry by the Department of Homeland Security.

What is the US federal government preparing for? And why does it feel it needs an army of brainwashed youth, millions of guns, thousands of armoured fighting vehicles and literally billions of rounds of ammunition, just to provide relief to the American people during a natural disaster? Any historian will tell you it sounds more like the arming of the Hitler Youth than an army of first responders fighting forest fires and hurricanes.

Forex Trading Tips: 10,000 Hours

10,000 Hours

The latest Malcolm Gladwell book Outliers should be a must read for anyone who trades. Mr. Gladwell studied the backgrounds of many extraordinarily accomplished people from all walks of life and found that the reason for their success had far less to do with their innate talent and far more to do with their circumstances and their work ethic.

One of the most fascinating insights that Mr. Glawell offers is that the time of your birth can be a far more important factor in your overall success than any other variable. From Canadian hockey players all born between January - June (early birthday gives you a huge advantages in your youth when body development and coordination skills are most pronounced) to computer entrepreneurs such as Bill Gates, Bill Joy and Scott McNeally all born in 1955 (the perfect year to take advantage of the personal computer revolution that came on line in the middle 1970’s) to superstar corporate lawyers all born in 1930 (who came of age just as mergers and acquisitions were becoming the norm of American business) -- when you were born was more important that who you were.

————--Top 5 Stories in FX This Week—————-

But lady luck was not the only factor necessary for achievement. Skill, honed by 10,000 hours of work was the other crucial component of success. Talent was needed to be sure, but it was really a baseline. Any reasonably bright person could qualify. The key was developing your skill set, and the dividing line between those who were good versus those who were great was 10,000 hours of practice. Whether you played violin or programmed a computer or practiced corporate law - your did not achieve true proficiency until you had 10,000 hour under your belt.

For us as FX traders Gladwel’s findings are great news. We happen to live at the best possible time for trading as technology has eliminated almost all the barriers to entry. Transaction costs are low. Execution speeds are measured in milliseconds. Dissemination of news has become much more efficient. And every year the market sees steady improvement in all three areas. Meanwhile the field is still new (there are only 500K retail FX traders across the world vs. millions of equity traders) and full of possibilities.

But to succeed we must continually practice. Think of what it means to have 10,000 hours of trading time. That’s 50 hours per week for 4 years straight before you can truly feel proficient at the game. Next time you feel like you want to quit in despair, just remember this figure and remember what unites every successful person throughout history -- they never give up.

Serving with Musical Gifts

The Youth Trumpet & Taps Corps is a service organization for high school trumpet players who use their musical gifts to honor military veterans. Our main project is volunteering to sound Taps at veterans' funerals when a professional military bugler is not available. Out of respect for service to our country, we feel that veterans’ final honors are more worthy of a live rendition of our National Song of Remembrance.

If ever you are a first-time trader, I extremely suggest the use of a forex simulator. You can browse the web for financially free forex simulator.

I suggest that you should open up a small forex account after having acquiring it. By the use of this small forex account, you can now be able to begin you journey on trading actual money as small as 100 US dollars. The reason why you don’t have sufficient funds to open up a forex account is because their lowest rate is generally 5000 US dollars.

Some instances might be possible when a bank of a certain country or some huge banks that exists today is capable of causing the foreign exchange amount of charge, yet, they can only maintain it for a short period of time. No possible special data or skillful market handling. Thus, without being scared, a person could be able to trade. Yet, most of the time, a person is accused of being dishonest in stock trading or whatever sort. In the area of forex trading . an individual should always put in their mind to focus his attention on several main currency sets and plain technical abilities. A trader in the field of forex should not be dwelling about the 72 goods or the 8000 stocks plus any kind of trading regulations which go with markets. The Forex Market is represented as not complex.

2016 YCC Trainer Announcement

Forest Stewards Guild Youth Conservation Corps Many employers say it is difficult to find experienced local help, particularly in natural resource management. In response, the Forest Stewards Guild sponsors a youth corps program in New Mexico each summer to train local youth in forestry work. The Forest Stewards Guild Youth Conservation Corps (YCC) works in partnership with national forests in New Mexico.

The mission of this youth program is to provide career training in natural resources for 16-25 year olds from areas of the state that have few employment opportunities. Through training from the Guild and working on the ground, crew members learn about forest management, fire ecology, watershed health, and wildlife ecology. Some crew members have gone on to pursue college degrees in natural resource management.

This program would not exist without annual grant support from the New Mexico Youth Conservation Commission. This non-federal funding is then leveraged by the Forest Stewards Guild. Along with Region 3 support, we have received consistent funding from the National Forest Foundation’s Matching Awards Program, enabling additional crew members to be hired. We have also received consistent funding from the McCune Charitable Trust to support a variety of administrative costs. In addition to these critical funding elements, we work to raise funds from other private foundations.

The Forest Stewards Guild youth program occurs exclusively in New Mexico on National Forests. The Ranger Districts and Forests that have supported YCC crews have changed slightly over the years; however the Carson, Cibola, and Santa Fe National Forests have been mainstays of the program. The Cuba, El Rito, Jemez, Las Vegas/Pecos, Mountainair, and Mt. Taylor districts have been committed for many years.

Forest Stewards Guild YCC – by the numbers

From 2009 to 2014, the YCC program has accomplished a great deal of on-the-ground work:

• Noxious weed removal = 1206 acres

• Fence built or repaired = 120 miles

• Trail built or maintained = 69 miles

• Fire line created or rehabilitated = 26 miles

Hijab Ban In NYSC Camps An Invitation To Religious Crisis Of Monumental Proportion – Muslim Rights Group

The Muslim Rights Concern, MURIC, has rejected in very strong terms the purported ban on Hijab in the National Youth Service Corps, NYSC, orientation camps.

The Director-General of the NYSC, Brig.-Gen. Johnson Olawumi, on Tuesday announced a ban on the use of “long hijab” by female corps members, citing security concerns.

But MURIC, in a statement by its director, Prof. Ishaq Akintola, said the ban is unacceptable to Muslims and accused the NYSC DG of Islamophobia.

“The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) rejects the purported ban. It is reckless, baseless and preposterous. No public officer of the Federal Republic of Nigeria should speak in such manner.

“The pronouncement smacks of power drunkenness. It is a hate statement. The Director General needs to purge himself of Islamophobia.

“On what ground is he banning the use of hijab? Security reason is not enough because we have examples of armed robbers using police uniforms to rob.

“Has anyone thought of banning police uniform? About forty armed robbers dressed in army uniform attacked six banks in Agbara, Ogun State last week. They killed a policeman and a pregnant woman. Should we ban army uniform because of that?

“Brigadier General Johnson and his ilk are hiding under the security challenge facing Nigeria to implement a hidden agenda, namely, to stigmatise Muslims and to embarrass our daughters and wives who wear hijab.

“Is General Johnson aware that female Muslims in the British police use hijab on top of their uniform? Can he tell us how the hijab disturbs a corper’s uniform?

“Does the DG know that hijab is an integral, nay, the most vital part of a female Muslim’s dress? Does he know that female Muslim corpers feel as if they are unclad when disallowed from using the hijab? Is he aware of the psychological trauma such female Muslim corpers go through?

“How can we spend a lifetime training our daughters to dress decently and you dehumanize them in your camp within 24 hours? How dare you?

“We affirm that we will use every constitutional means to stop this religious apartheid against Muslims in the name of discipline and regimentation.

“Why must Muslims face persecution everywhere in Nigeria? Why can’t the Nigerian system accommodate and integrate the Islamic culture? Why can’t Nigerian officials allow Islamic landmarks to stand pari passu with British colonial and Christian culture?

“Is Nigeria truly independent or is it a banana republic created to serve only the interest of the British imperial masters? Must Muslims be forced to accept British Christian mode of dressing?

“We must ask who designed Nigeria’s school uniform? Who designed the army and police uniforms? Was it not the British? What is the religion of the British? Is every Nigerian in the same faith? So why can’t we allow the Muslims to retain their identity? Why can’t the Muslims enjoy religious freedom in this country?

“Why must Muslims be forced to dress like Christians? Why must Muslims be denied the dividends of democracy? Any policy that fails to carry us along is exclusive. Nigeria is for all of us. We reject an NYSC that promulgates anti-Muslim decrees.

“We remind the DG that he cannot turn Muslims in NYSC camps into slaves. This is not military rule. NYSC officials, including the DG will be acting ultra vires if they take actions which violate the laws of the land.

“Section 38 (i) & (ii) of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria guarantees religious freedom. We seek the enforcement of this right.

“Yet the hypocrisy of the system has been exposed. Can the NYSC Director General explain why the NYSC allows female Muslim corpers in places like Kano and Sokoto to use the hijab while their counterparts in the South are harassed and intimidated?

“Why this double standard? Is the ban only meant for the South? Or is it further proof of the mythological ‘Northern-Muslim and Southern-Christian dichotomy’? It had better not be.

“We hope it will not get to a point when Nigerian Muslims will decide to opt out of the NYSC service year. Yes, we may have no other option than to ask our daughters to ignore an institution which targets them for ridicule, torment and persecution.

“MURIC charges the NYSC to revisit its rules. Any aspect of those rules which fails to respect the faith of Christians, Muslims or traditionalists should be expunged. Such rules are draconian and counter-productive. They only serve the interest of neo-imperialists.

“We appeal to the National Assembly to save Nigerian Muslims from annual embarrassment in NYSC camps. Our daughters are being derobed in public courtesy of a system that is blind to sociological realities, a system that has allowed itself to be enslaved by the culture of the colonial master.

“We call on the Director General of the NYSC to desist from precipitating a religious crisis of monumental proportion over the hijab saga. Nigeria has enough on its hands already. The DG should stop stirring the hornet’s nest.

“We insist that Nigerian Muslims cannot be intimidated. Nobody should test our will. Nigerian Muslims have the capacity to mobilize for peaceful protests in all NYSC camps across the country if the molestation of our daughters continue. Enough is enough.

“We did not bargain for an NYSC that has been hijacked by religious bigots and Muslim-haters!

“MURIC has a duty in loco parentis to cry out against the persecution of female Muslim corpers. They are our daughters and also our members. We charge all Islamic organizations in the country to rise to the occasion.

“We cry out to our mothers-in-Islam in the Federation of Muslim Women Associations of Nigeria (FOMWAN), the Criterion and all other female Muslim organizations. It is taboo for a woman to ignore her child’s cry! Muslim women arise, the slave masters are dragging our daughters in the mud.

“We advise female Muslim corpers to continue to use their hijab. It is their Allah-given fundamental human right.

“We are keeping a tab on those unscrupulous elements who will snatch the hijab from the heads of our daughters or those power drunk officials who will expel them from NYSC camps.

“Perhaps the time has come to revisit the whole gamut of this NYSC affair”, Mr. Akintola said.

Online Forex Trading Gaining Ground in Ghana

on February 1, 2016

Mr Kojo Dougan of Interpay (an online payment platform) and also the president of the Ghana – South-Africa Business Chamber, despite his busy schedule, still finds time to trade Forex online. He is actually an avid trader and has been trading for the past 18 months. This is an example of how Forex trade has caught the attention of some Ghanaians.

Dougan says he started online forex trading with only $100 US but now he does several transactions in a month.

Online Foreign Exchange (Forex) trade has become very popular in Ghana not only among the financial institutions or wealthy individuals but also average Ghanaians who are ready to grasp the huge financial opportunities it offers.

Increasingly, the number of individuals showing interest in the online forex trading business keeps increasing day by day in Ghana.

According to Forex Academy, an Accra based forex training institute, the sector, although new in the country is attracting a number of Ghanaians not only in the capital but across the length and breadth of the country.

The academy claims that the number of people it had trained in the last two years has been very encouraging though the actual figure was not given.

This trend, the academy says, is due to the fact that forex trading is very flexible – easy techniques, very little capital required, access to the global market (wide options) and an avenue to earn additional income from the comfort of one’s home or office.

This market involves buying and selling of currencies at determined prices and is said to be the most traded financial market in the world.

$5.5 US trillion is estimated as the average daily volumes on the forex market according to AITE Group’s (a research firm in USA) recent report titled “THE GLOBAL FX UPDATE”. This dwarfs the biggest stock exchange market in the world, New York stock market, with a daily turnover around $50 US billion.

Some traders in Ghana who are very active on the foreign exchange market have explained that the market is filled with benefits and it’s about time more Ghanaians embrace it to unleash the full benefits to the populace and the country as a whole.

Dougan’s story is one that resonates with several young enterprising Ghanaians today.

David Apinga, a media practitioner is one such person. He has been trading Forex as a part time activity for 2 years now.

“I got introduced to online Forex trading on campus in 2010. I came back to Accra, enrolled with Forex academy and started trading right away. “He said

David says he doesn’t spend much time on trading platforms but upon market trends or a piece of news on the market, he sits behind his laptop and does some transactions.

Even as a part-time trader, with a trading account of $100 US and trading size of $0.5 cents he sometimes earns between $40- $50 US per day.

“I am very happy to have discovered another means of earning additional income.” He expressed his joy.

Dougan sees the importance of forex trade far beyond personal gain but more as a means for economic benefits. He explained how Ghana can benefit economically if forex trading is encouraged in the country.

“It is an opportunity to the economy because in Forex trade we deal in foreign currencies so whoever gains, takes his winnings to his country. Just imagine 5000 Ghanaians gaining US $100 each and injecting this amount into the country economy,” he said.

Moreover, he believes it can be an alternative way to address the worrying unemployment situation in the country.

“It can create employment opportunities where a graduate can be self-employed. He can trade, get the experience and even open a firm to employ other people as well. We need to do more sensitization and encourage the youth. Government can even integrate Forex trading as a youth employment program,” Dougan says.

Though the current trends show how foreign exchange trade can impact positively, it however has its negative side.

Globally, statistics indicate that a significant number of all new forex traders lose their entire invested capital within 3 to 4 months from trading startup, only few traders actually made some fortune from Forex.

On that note, Dougan advised potential traders to acquire the necessary knowledge and skills in trading and also start with small capital to avoid huge losses.

Despite online Forex trading being a significant part of global business it remains highly unregulated in many countries. With Ghana gradually growing the sector, Forex traders are split on the issue of regulation. Some argue that regulation is necessary while others completely disagree. Whatever the case may be, Forex trading is certainly an area worth taking a critical look at.

Gambia: Kartong Youth Release And Forex Micromanaging By Jammeh!

Ah! No, no, no… Mr. Jammeh, you should now COMPENSATE the youths for being tortured, footing medical bills, legal fees and transportation costs of parents going around looking for loved ones. YES Mr. JAMMEH, you SHOULD PAY damages as well.

After paying the said compensations, you should immediately STOP the sand mining activities until the AMBIGUITIES are resolved.

Finally you should also STOP all sand mining activities throughout the Kombo Coastal Area until the environmental and revenue matters are SORTED out.

Failing which, you are breaking the laws of land and as such calling for more TROUBLE.

The Climate Change meeting going on in Paris right now should open your eyes and minds to the environmental impacts which supersedes any financial benefits.

On the forex front, Jammeh issued a directive since last October to have the local banks list out the names and companies shipping forex to pay for foreign transactions. Jammeh is effectively monitoring who ships what and for what purpose. Jammeh is effectively doing the job of the Central Bank. As such, since Jammeh is sick and does not work and is busy on his political propaganda tour has NO TIME to clear files on his table hence the STOPPAGE of forex shipments rendering congestions at the ports, demurrages charges accruing at the port, transportation and labor movements at a standstill, ALL of which will increase the prices of goods and services for the consumers.

Jammeh’s micro-managing the forex is costing the country a lot.

Over to you… Gracias.

KARACHI: The military establishment came up on Thursday with a message which suggested that the “Karachi operation” was not going to end anytime soon as the Rangers-led exercise was “free of pace” and “there is no doubt that it would continue till the achievement of its target”.

The fresh resolve came from the Karachi Corps Commander Lt Gen Naveed Mukhtar while addressing the passing-out parade at Pakistan Rangers, Sindh’s Training Centre and School and where he briefly focused on ‘Karachi operation’, its results so far, challenges and future line of action.

“There is no doubt that the Karachi operation would continue till the completion of its target,” an Inter-Services Public Relations statement quoted Lt Gen Mukhtar as saying. “The targets of the Karachi operation are free of pace. Pakistan Rangers would continue to play its role to provide security to the people of the province. I appreciate the contribution and cooperation extended by the people as we have to move forward together towards the fearless destination.”

The corps commander’s thoughts came a week after Army Chief General Raheel Sharif “vowed to go to any length” for peace in the city apparently in a clear message that there would be no let-up in the actions under the “Karachi operation”. The army chief had demonstrated his commitment during his visit to the Corps Headquarters Karachi where he met heads of intelligence apparatuses of the armed forces, the corps commander and the Sindh Rangers chief. He commended their efforts for peace in the city only two days after announcing that he would retire on the due date.

As political circles and media are often seen debating the issue of extension of special powers to Rangers in Karachi, the statements and announcements from the military establishment hardly carry any doubt about their plans to continue with the exercise for the city’s peace which has been restored to a large extent.

The Thursday’s address by the Karachi Corps Commander is seen in the same context as just two days after a three-month extension in special powers to Rangers, he clearly hinted that the operation could go to any extent without considering pace and time limit.

“On one hand, many successes have been achieved during Karachi operation, on the other revival of hope is crucial part of this all exercise,” he said. “We have to assure that atmosphere to people of Karachi where they are free of any fear and carry only sense of protection. The credit to successful operation in Karachi goes to officers and soldiers of the Pakistan Rangers, Sindh. They have played key role for restoration of peace.”

While praising Rangers, he said the paramilitary force was known for its bravery and its contribution for a strong and peaceful society was recognised by every segment.

“Now you are no more an individual. You are an institution now and your every act would represent this institution,” he said while addressing the passed out soldiers.

Trading Wisdom and Quotes

While retail forex trading is a relatively new phenomenon, on the institutional level it has been around for many years. Furthermore, there are similarities between all financial markets, so those that have been traders for a long time have developed their own wisdom. Much of this wisdom is contained in some inspiring quotes. Some of this advice may seem like common sense, but letting it really sink in can offer newer traders a moment of truth that can bring about a profound improvement in the way they view the market, and as a result, in the way they trade.

"The trend is your friend" - perhaps the best known trading adage of all time, it is meant to remind traders to always identify the prevailing trend, and never to trade against it, but rather wait for retracements and then enter trades in the direction of the trend.

"The market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent" - The way the market reacts to certain news or events may not seem rational at times, but there is no sense in trying to fight the market - it moves where it moves and does not care one bit about your opinion.

"A fool and his money are soon parted" - If you are not smart about where you put your money, you will most likely lose it.

"The trading rules I live by are: (a) Cut losses, (b) Ride Winners, (c) Keep bets small, (d) Follow the rules without question, and (e) Know when to break the rules." - Rules are important, but following them blindly does not necessarily lead to success. Know which conditions produced those rules in the first place, so that when the conditions change, the rules can too.

"Amateurs Focus On Rewards. Professionals Focus on Risk." - Experienced traders think first about how much they can lose on a trade, base their calculations on that, and then see if they are happy with the potential reward the trade offers. Novices usually do the opposite, blinded by the allure of quick riches.

Mortgage Broker to Australia’s Youth: Give Up Life, Fun, Holidays… Buy an Overpriced Home

By Lindsay David, Australia, author of Print: The Central Bankers Bubble , founder of LF Economics:

Last week, Ayda Shabanzadeh, managing director of a real estate consulting and finance broker in Brisbane, wrote an op-ed in which she tells the younger generation of Australians this:

Gen Y wannabe property buyers need to stop complaining about being priced out of buying a home.

As good as a Greek getaway would be during their summer, Europe’s not going anywhere anytime soon so you don’t have to blow cash that could go towards a property.

Who wants to have fun in Mykonos when they have grey hair and three kids?

Lets be a little realistic. Hardly any first-time homebuyers today are getting into the property game without their parents blowing a huge chunk of their life savings in order to help their kids come up with a measly down payment for a house.

I’m very sorry Ayda, but if you are a managing director of a property consulting and finance firm (helping Australian’s load up on debt) and are advising young Australians to give up their youth and sunny holidays in order to get into the real estate market at these prices, I sure as heck hope you are also advising clients of the potential risks involved in buying real estate and the financial risks to young homebuyers if they cannot repay their mortgage…. And how life sucks when you are in your early 20’s, stuck at home having dinner with your parents on a Saturday night whilst all of your friends are out making the most of their youth.

I know the previous generation of Australian’s were not stuck at home watching “Hey Hey is Saturday” with their folks whilst buying property at a younger age.

And I’m sure that across the nation that the overwhelming majority of property advisors and financial brokers have absolutely no clue how to assess the macroeconomic headwinds that are arriving at Australia’s doorstep.

There is a reason the younger generation of Australians are not buying property. It’s too expensive, their wages aren’t growing, and it makes no sense to mortgage their life away when they could have a better quality of life by not buying property in this current market. The ability of a first-time buyer to buy a house today has very little to do with their own ability to save. Either their parents pony up the cash or they rent.

And as for the holidaying in Mykonos, it’s a whole lot more fun to be there over the European summer months than it is being stuck paying a hefty mortgage for an unaffordable run-down suburban dump miles away from the central business district in a host of property markets that have now flatlined. Including Ayda’s hometown of Brisbane where there is a good chance that the cost of maintaining a highly leveraged property outpaces by a significant margin the actual appreciation of the price of the property.

Or lets look at another Queensland town…. Emerald, where the bubble has already burst and house prices have fallen by roughly $200,000 (40%) over the last three years. Now there is probably some young Emerald resident who listened to one of Ayda’s industry counterparts and is now stuck paying down a mortgage that is significantly higher than the current price of the property itself (mortgage under water).

And the friends of that young Emerald resident, who are not stuck with a mortgage, have actually profited from not buying property and going instead to Mykonos and partying their brains out. They’ll come back to Emerald with a hangover and the chance of later buying their mate’s underwater house at a 50% discount whilst telling him about the great time they’d had in Greece.

I believe it is imperative that the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) and the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) change the rules to limit the ability of a financial or property advisors in Australia to also be a financial broker of home loans. There is simply too much commission flying around for property advisors to give proper advice. By Lindsay David, Australia Boom to Bust Blog , author of Print: The Central Bankers Bubble

Q1-2016: News Corp revenue declines 4.5 percent

BENGALURU: Rupert Murdoch helmed News Corporation reported a 4.5 per cent YoY decline in consolidated revenues in the quarter ended 20 September, 2015 (Q1-2016, current quarter) at $2,014 million as compared to the prior year’s quarter revenue of $2,2108 million. Reported Consolidated EBIDTA in the current quarter declined 14.9 per cent YoY to $165 million from $194 million.

Negative foreign currency fluctuations in the current quarter reduced Total Segment EBITDA by $29 million as compared to Q1-2015. Income from continuing operations was $143 million as compared to $109 million in Q1-2015 due to a tax benefit from the release of valuation allowances resulting from the planned disposal of the digital education business, partially offset by lower Total Segment EBITDA, lower Other, net and lower equity earnings of affiliates says News Corp.

Earnings per share from continuing operations available to News Corporation stockholders in the current quarter were $0.22 as compared to $0.15 in Q1-2015. Adjusted EPS were $0.05 in Q1-2016 compared to $0.13 in Q1-2015.

News Corp CEO Robert Thomson said, “News Corp is on track in its transition to a more digital and global future, having successfully integrated several recent acquisitions and built a powerful platform for future growth. We are focused on driving sustainable expansion of revenue and profit, and leveraging the potency of our brands, while diligently controlling costs to maximise long-term returns for all investors. Foreign exchange fluctuations negatively impacted reported results, but this should not obscure the progress at many of our businesses. In fact, News Corp’s revenues, excluding the effect of currency, grew four per cent this quarter, underscoring the value of our shift to higher growth businesses and our prudent reinvestment strategy.”

“We are particularly pleased with the momentum at realtor. com. which is significantly ahead of schedule on key metrics. We are now, by some reckoning, the world's largest digital property listings company and we see a particularly bright future in the sector, especially in the U. S. where we believe the national real estate market is still returning to health,” he added.

“Our digital expertise has been enhanced by the addition of Unruly and Checkout 51, which we expect will have a positive impact across our businesses and around the world. We are already seeing significant new opportunities because of Unruly's unique skills in measuring the social and viral penetration of advertising campaigns. We are on the cusp of significant upheaval in the advertising market, which has been distorted by trash traffic, invisible impressions and mockable metrics, to the detriment of advertisers, large and small,” he further said.

“With recent M&A activity highlighting the rising value of global financial news brands, the progress at Dow Jones and The Wall Street Journal is noteworthy, with growth in print and digital advertising, and improvements in the professional information business.”

News and Information Services

This is News Corp’s largest segment. Revenues for the segment declined 11.1 per cent to $1,290 million in the current quarter as compared to the $1451 million in the corresponding year ago quarter. The segment’s EBIDTA declined 21 per cent YoY to $83 million from $105 million due to lower advertising revenues and $5 million of higher legal expenses at News America Marketing claims the company.

News Corp says that total segment advertising revenues declined 13 per cent, primarily due to negative foreign currency fluctuations, weakness in the print advertising market, most notably in Australia, and lower revenues at News America Marketing.

Circulation and subscription revenues declined six per cent, due to negative foreign currency fluctuations, partially offset by higher subscription pricing and cover price increases. At Dow Jones . the company saw growth in both print and digital advertising revenues and higher circulation revenues at The Wall Street Journal as well as modest growth of professional information business revenues.

Adjusted revenues declined three per cent compared to the prior year. Total segment advertising revenues declined five per cent and circulation and subscription revenues increased two per cent, excluding the impact of $60 million and $45 million, respectively, from negative foreign currency fluctuations.

Revenues for the segment increased 0.7 per cent to $409 million in the current quarter as compared to the $406 million in the corresponding year ago quarter. The revenue growth was driven by driven by strong sales in General Books resulting from the popularity of Go Set a Watchman by Harper Lee and the inclusion of the results of Harlequin, acquired in August 2014, partially offset by lower revenues from the Divergent series, lower e-book sales and negative foreign currency fluctuations. Digital sales represented 20 per cent of consumer revenues for the quarter.

The segment’s EBIDTA declined 23.6 per cent YoY to $42 million from $55 million.

Digital Real Estate Services

Revenues for the segment increased 70.5 per cent to $191 million in the current quarter as compared to the $112 million in Q1-2015 primarily driven by the inclusion of the results of Move, acquired in November 2014. At REA Group, increased revenues from greater residential listing depth product penetration and improved listing volumes in Australia were more than offset by negative foreign currency fluctuations.

The segment’s EBIDTA was flat YoY at $57 million due to negative foreign currency fluctuations.

News Corp claims that in Q1-2016, Move’s revenues increased 33 per cent on a stand-alone basis to $85 million in the current quarter from $64 million in the corresponding prior year. Move saw continued strength in its Connection for Co-Brokerage product and non-listing Media revenues, coupled with market share gains for its Top Producer software product. Based on Move’s internal data, average monthly unique users of realtor. com ’s web and mobile sites for the quarter grew 43 per cent year-over-year to approximately 46 million, which was driven by 64 per cent growth in mobile users.

Cable Network Programming

Revenues declined 10.9 per cent in the current quarter to $124 million from $139 million in Q1-2015, while the company says that Adjusted revenues increased 10 per cent, primarily due to higher affiliate and advertising revenues.

The segment’s EBIDTA declined 12.5 per cent in Q1-2016 to $28 million from $32 million in Q1-2015. News Corp claims that Adjusted Segment EBITDA increased nine per cent, primarily due to an increase in revenues, as noted above, partially offset by expected higher programming rights costs related to the Rugby World Cup. Negative foreign currency fluctuations reduced reported revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 2016 by $29 million as compared to the prior year.

News Corp says that Segment EBITDA in the quarter improved by $10 million compared to the corresponding prior year, primarily due to lower fees and costs, net of indemnification, related to the claims and investigations arising out of certain conduct at The News of the World.

The net expense related to the U. K. Newspaper Matters was $5 million for Q1-2016 as compared to $14 million for Q1-2015.

Economic Collapse: Italy Youth Unemployment Hits Record High 44.2%

By Milad Marvasti Published. August 1, 2015

Youth unemployment hit a 33-year high in June, according to the latest data from the Italian national statistics office, signaling the troubled country and the wider eurozone area could be on the verge of economic collapse .

It’s the disappointing unemployment rate that indicates the economic collapse would be imminent. Many economists had expected that the unemployment rate would fall to 12.3%. But it turns out that the unemployment rate rose from 12.5% to 12.7% while less jobs were created.

Italy’s jobless rate, which currently stands at 12.5%, has nearly doubled since the financial crisis in 2008. Unemployment in Italy remains higher than that of the eurozone; remaining unchanged at 11.1% in June.

On Monday July 27th, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) noted that “without a significant acceleration of the growth rate, it will take Italy almost 20 years to reduce the unemployment rate to pre-crisis levels.”

The third-largest economy in the region has been suffering from the high unemployment. Youth have been even harder hit; with 44.2% of those between the ages of 15 and 25 unemployed.

Overall, the eurozone’s economy has slowed down significantly which forced the European Central Bank (ECB) to begin printing money and lowering the interest rate. Despite such massive money printing from the ECB, the situation in Italy is just worsening in the extent that the country has not been able to benefit from the ECB’s money printing program.

It’s not only about the unemployment rate. Massive public debt is driving Italy into turmoil. It is repeatedly mentioned that Italy’s debt holds more than 130% of the country’s gross domestic product (GDP), and still rising. Under such circumstances, with huge debt and high unemployment, policymakers in Italy and even in Europe have not been able to find the solution to save an economy on the verge of collapse.

As it stands, uncertainties surrounding Greece along with an emerging crisis from Italy and perhaps later from Spain may drag the entire eurozone (and eventually the world) into a recession in early 2016.

2015: Towards utopia or a nightmare?

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness…

Charles Dickens, A Tale of Two Cities

Despite the stories of crises, calamities and contagion, the world is better off today than at any time in human history. Bill Gates and Hans Rosling. among others, have dispelled the myths and misinformation about global changes in mortality, public health, education and wealth. And they are right: unquestionably, the world is less afflicted with conflict and related deaths, enjoys greater prosperity and life expectancy, and is more connected by trade, commerce and technology than ever before.

However, there is another story unfolding – one that is sobering, potentially ominous and threatens global progress. This is a tale of weak global governance and the limitations of institutions to solve big problems; fragmented and increasingly competitive concentrations of political and economic power; clustering of extreme poverty in fragile states; and an unprecedented number of complex humanitarian crises resulting in more people displaced by violence than any time since World War II. The global humanitarian system is clearly overwhelmed.

If the big issues of our times are instability, inequality and non-sustainability, then the narrative of human progress is facing increasing peril. Nowhere is this truer than in “fragile” contexts and countries trapped at the intersection of extreme poverty, conflict and weak governance. And while fragile countries are a minority, we cannot truly celebrate global progress until we see notable changes in these strongholds of fragility.

We stand today at a historical inflection point: one that requires not only courageous leadership, but bold coordinated action to channel the power of markets and the private sector, in combination with the reach, wherewithal and influence of governments, multilateral organizations and civil society. There are no panaceas, fast fixes or shiny solutions to solve fragility and build resilience. However, Mercy Corps ’ experience in the world’s toughest places provides some insight into opportunities for collective impact.

Making fragile states resilient

While it may seem counterintuitive to “reward” fragile states with additional aid in a time of constrained budgets and competing priorities, the nature of our interconnected world means neighbouring regions and the broader world may not be able to escape a direct negative impact – think ISIS and Ebola.

Crises such as natural disasters, conflicts, political upheavals and economic collapse are moments when the status quo can be challenged and opportunities for significant change arise. While humanitarian crises present a moral imperative for the international community to respond, simple stability efforts or disaster recovery cannot combat fragility. Effective efforts begin with a focus on saving lives and reducing immediate suffering, transition quickly to helping communities rapidly recover from crises, and then create mechanisms to help communities overcome recurring shocks and setbacks.

The evidence is clear that good governance and resilience are inextricably linked. In a forthcoming paper from my NGO, Mercy Corps, and the United Nations Development Programme, research indicates that Lebanon’s centralized government and local municipalities are both strained as Syrian refugees have increased the country’s population by 25%. A resilient system requires a decentralized approach, where local governments have the capacity to respond quickly to the people in their communities, whether residents or refugees, and the national government has flexibility to cope with the crisis and prepare for the next shock.

Working to end the cycle of violence

An upcoming Mercy Corps research report supports a growing body of evidence that contradicts the broadly held assumption that greater employment opportunities reduce young people’s propensity to support violent movements. Our research suggests that the best cross-cultural predictor of whether a young person will participate in political violence is injustice.

For example, our research found no relationship between young people’s job status and support for, or participation in, political violence in Somalia. In Afghanistan, we found that increases in youth employment did not lead to significant changes in support for armed opposition groups. In Colombia, key informant interviews with former child soldiers found that increases in employment did not lead to significant changes in support for armed opposition groups. Our analysis of the drivers of political violence among youth in 13 countries across sub-Saharan Africa showed that economic conditions are not the primary drivers of conflict.

Addressing deep-seated social and political marginalization, discrimination, and corruption requires more than single-input investments and training. Stabilization requires a multipronged strategy and commitment to long-term programmes that provide psychosocial support, education, economic development and governance reforms.

Doing business in fragile states

The private sector has proven its ability to have a transformative effect in emerging markets. But in unstable environments, the balance between risk and return must be favourable enough to warrant investment. This missing puzzle piece has to be tackled directly.

Companies can benefit by changing their view of civil society actors from grant recipients to a critical part of the corporate value chain in fragile environments. For companies reluctant to invest without some indication of likely success, international non-governmental organizations (INGOs) can be valuable partners. Working for years or decades in a community, INGOs such as Mercy Corps are keenly aware of the challenges and opportunities for viable business gains that simultaneously address social challenges and the process of creating acceptance in unstable environments.

Mercy Corps, for example, has worked in close partnership with MasterCard to develop commercially viable emergency e-transfer solutions to improve the safety, efficiency and speed of aid delivery to those who need it most. Coupled with our work together on business and financial literacy, our growing suite of activities in seven countries is helping us to understand thoughtful ways to drive longer-term financial inclusion at scale.

There are no simple solutions or fast fixes, but we must shift the narrative away from two diverging worlds to one of increasing global cooperation and shared responsibility. As an international community, we need to focus our collective resources on the most fragile places to build long-term resilience. This will enable us to find the common ground where bold business approaches, application of new technologies, social innovation and creative partnerships can come together to provide transformational opportunities.

Shubham Banerjee, 13, Gets Funding From Intel

Huntington Beach, California . If Shubham Banerjee cannot lay claim to being the world's youngest venture capital-backed entrepreneur, he comes very close.

Banerjee was 12 years old when he closed an early-stage funding round with Intel Capital, the company's venture capital arm, last month for his prototype for a low-cost Braille printer. Since then, the San Jose, California middle-schooler has turned 13.

That's young, even by the standards of Silicon Valley, where many venture capitalists unapologetically prefer to fund youth over experience.

Young entrepreneurs usually have reached at least their mid-teens when they hit it big. Nick D'Aloisio, founder of online news aggregator Summly, was 17 when Yahoo bought his company last year for $30 million.

Show Full Article

Brothers John and Patrick Collison, behind payments service Stripe, were 16 and 19 when they sold an earlier business to a Canadian company for $5 million.

After reading a fundraising flyer about the blind, Banerjee felt inspired to turn a high-tech version of Legos, the toy building blocks, into a device that could print in Braille. One day, he wants to mass-produce the printers and sell them for about $350, far less than Braille printers cost now.

This past summer, he worked on incorporating an Intel Edison chip, a processor aimed at hobbyists, into the printer. In September, Intel invited him to a conference in San Francisco to highlight uses for Edison. There, he got a big surprise.

Intel executive Mike Bell announced from the conference stage that the giant chipmaker would invest in his company, Braigo Labs. Until then, his funding consisted of the $35,000 his parents gave him.

"I turned back to my dad, and said, 'What did he just say?'" Banerjee recalled. "I was all over the place."

Banerjee and a spokesman for Intel Capital declined to disclose the size of the investment. A person familiar with the matter said it was a few hundred thousand dollars. He plans to use it to build a better prototype of the printer and test it with more groups for the blind.

After the announcement, Banerjee had to bone up on unfamiliar terms such as "venture capital."

He also needed to convince adults to co-sign his funding and patent documents. Among the company officials he turned to: Braigo's president, his mom, Malini.

Banerjee says he gets mostly As and Bs as a student at the Champion School in San Jose, California. Teachers have given him time off to attend events like the conference in India and the Intel Global Capital summit this week in Huntington Beach, California. He catches up on school work on weekends, he says.

This is the second Intel investment connected to the Banerjee family. His dad, Neil, works for Kno, an education start-up that Intel bought last year.

While many young entrepreneurs who win venture-capital cash end up ditching their education to focus on their businesses full time, Banerjee says he won't take that path.

"It's an after-school thing," he says.

What is foreign exchange?

Foreign exchange, or Forex. is the conversion of one country's currency into that of another. In a free economy, a country's currency is valued according to factors of supply and demand. In other words, a currency's value can be pegged to another country's currency, such as the U. S. dollar, or even to a basket of currencies. A country's currency value also may be fixed by the country's government. However, most countries float their currencies freely against those of other countries, which keeps them in constant fluctuation.

The value of any particular currency is determined by market forces based on trade, investment, tourism, and geo-political risk. Every time a tourist visits a country, for example, he or she must pay for goods and services using the currency of the host country. Therefore, a tourist must exchange the currency of his or her home country for the local currency. Currency exchange of this kind is one of the demand factors for a particular currency. Another important factor of demand occurs when a foreign company seeks to do business with a company in a specific country. Usually, the foreign company will have to pay the local company in their local currency. At other times, it may be desirable for an investor from one country to invest in another, and that investment would have to be made in the local currency as well. All of these requirements produce a need for foreign exchange and are the reasons why foreign exchange markets are so large.

Foreign exchange is handled globally between banks and all transactions fall under the auspice of the Bank of International Settlements.

There is a story in the older Girl Scout Brownie books called "The Brownie Story". The story dates back to Lord Baden-Powell (founder of the Scouting Movement) who adapted the … story for use by Girl Guides and Girl Scouts. In the story, a brownie is described as a very helpful little person who comes into the house before the family wakes up and does all sorts of chores. The little girl in the story goes out to try to find some brownies to help in her home and she talks to the Wise Old Owl who tells her there are already two brownies living in her house. The Owl tells her a charm to say while turning and then looking into the pond, but when she looks into the pond, all she sees is herself. The girl then realizes that she herself is the brownie, and goes back home. She gets her brother to help her and the two of them get up early each morning to do chores. Like the girl in the story, Girl Scout Brownies can be helpful. In many countries, the troop leader is called "Brown Owl" after the Wise Old Owl who helped the girl find the brownie. There are many versions of the story. The version in the Related Links tells the story about two sisters rather than a sister and a brother which is in the 1993 Brownie Girl Scout Handbook. (MORE)

For those who simply cannot wait for Girl Scout cookie season to return each year, you may find comfort in knowing that this cocktail is readily available all year long. It's … the adult version of a familiar treat from childhood and tastes nearly identical to the thin crispy cookies. This cocktail is also a great dessert cocktail when served over ice or over a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Fill a martini shaker with ice. Add the liqueurs and cream to the shaker and mix well. Strain the mixture into a martini glass or into a rocks glass with ice. To reduce the calories in the drink, replace the cream with two ounces of nonfat or low fat milk. It's no secret that many people store the famous chocolate covered peppermint cookies in the freezer. Add a stack of these cookies to the blender along with this recipe for a delicious blended milkshake cocktail. (MORE)

We all have fond memories of eating Thin Mints and other tasty varieties of Girl Scout cookies. Here are some facts that you might not have known about the delicious treats! In … 1942, during World War II, the Girl Scouts, like everyone else in the country, experienced a shortage of ingredients, particularly sugar, butter, and flour. Because of this, they had to skip the cookies and sell calendars instead. This probably led to many unhappy customers. Of all the different flavors of Girl Scout cookies, Thin Mints are number one. Of the $700 million in profit the cookies bring in each year, Thin Mints account for $170 million. Samoas come in at number two, with Tagalongs taking the number three spot and Savannah Smiles and Do-si-dos tying for fourth place. It is not hard to convince people to buy Girl Scout cookies, but not many individual scouts sell thousands of boxes. Jennifer Sharpe of Dearborn, Michigan, did, however: 17,328 boxes to be exact. The girl, who was 15 at the time, held the record for most boxes sold as of 2013.Throughout most of the year, Oreos are the best-selling cookie brand in the United States, but come Girl Scout cookie time, that changes. During the first quarter of the American fiscal year, Girl Scout cookies take the top spot every single year. Perhaps the two brands could work out a deal to form a tasty cookie monopoly? The original Girl Scout cookie was not a Thin Mint or a Do-si-do. It was not even chocolate chip. The first official cookie was a sugar cookie. The Girl Scouts of Chicago leader published the recipe in the Scout newsletter, and the various troops began baking and selling them. These days, a box of Girl Scout cookies will set you back about five dollars; however, they were much cheaper when your grandmother sold them. In 1933, a person could buy 44 cookies for a mere fraction of that price: 23 cents. Could you imagine getting 44 cookies for less than a quarter? You probably know what your favorite flavors are, but what you might not know is that some flavors either never hit the market or only stay on the market for a brief period of time before they are discontinued. For example, have you ever heard of the cinnamon-flavored Daisy-Go-Rounds or the Strawberries & Creme sandwich cookies? It might be a stretch to say Girl Scout cookies are good for you, but they are slightly better for you than some brands of cookies. The cookies have no preservatives or trans-fats and can be kept in the freezer if you accidentally order more than you can eat. They also use only Kosher ingredients, which is a plus for Jewish cookie-lovers. Technology has helped bring many old traditions into the 21st century, and that includes Girl Scout cookies. Smartphone owners can download an app called "Girl Scout Cookie Finder" and use it to locate troops in their area and where they plan to sell cookies. Have you ever wondered why Samoas are sometimes called Caramel deLites or Tagalongs are sometimes called Peanut Butter Patties? The cookies are exactly the same, they just have different names because two different bakeries, ABC Bakers and Little Brownie Bakers, make the cookies. Girl Scouts grow up to be some of the most important leaders in the United States, so it is a good thing they get practice working with people and money while selling cookies. As of 2005, nearly three-quarters of all female senators had been a Girl Scout at one point in time. Several First Ladies, including Hillary Clinton and Laura Bush, also served as Scouts. Even Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor once wore the sash. (MORE)

Microsoft debuts hologram goggles

The Microsoft HoloLens is shown in this publicity photo released to Reuters. Photo by Microsoft Corp./Handout via Reuters

REDMOND -- Microsoft unveiled headgear on Wednesday that overlays holograms on the real world, in what it touted as the next generation of computing.

The US technology titan debuted its HoloLens capabilities built into its coming Windows 10 operating system and showed off goggles that let wearers use their hands to interact with virtual objects.

"Until now, we've immersed ourselves in the world of technology," Microsoft's Alex Kipman said introducing HoloLens at a press event at the firm's Washington state headquarters.

"But, what if we could take technology and immerse it in our world?"

Windows Holographic creates three-dimensional images in the real world, then lets people wearing the headgear reach out and manipulate virtual objects.

Kipman said he invited virtual reality innovators, including Facebook-owned Oculus VR, to explore adapting different applications for the goggles.

"Holograms can become part of our everyday life," él dijo.

Microsoft chief executive Satya Nadella touted HoloLens and Windows 10 as a "mind-blowing" experience that will open a new type of computing.

"Today is a big day for Windows," Nadella said as Microsoft provided a look at its latest operating system at its headquarters in Redmond, Washington.

"We want to move from people needing Windows, to choosing Windows, to loving Windows; that is our bold goal for Windows."

Industry tracker Forrester predicts that what it refers to as mixed-reality computing will catch on by the year 2020, and include Internet giants Apple and Google weighing in with holographic offerings.

Millions of people will likely buy HoloLens by the end of next year, especially if Microsoft targets entertainment and particularly games who are proven early-adapters of technology, according to Forrester.

"If successful, HoloLens will ultimately expand the way people interact with machines just as the mouse-based interface did in the 1990s, and touch interfaces did after the introduction of the iPhone in 2007," said Forrester analyst James McQuivey.

HoloLens also has the potential to radically improve how firm's operate when it comes to collaborating from afar, training employees, and tending to work outside offices, according to Forrester analyst J. P. Gownder.

The Senate on Wednesday rejected a motion for the payment of N5, 000 monthly allowance to unemployed youths in the country.

The motion was sponsored by Philip Aduda (PDP, FCT) but was greeted with shouts of “no, no” when he tried to explain it.

Attempts by the Minority Leader, Godswill Akpabio, to second the motion were disrupted by the rowdiness.

Intervening, President of the Senate, Bukola Saraki, posed the question but the senators responded along party lines.

While Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) members yelled ‘’aye’’ in favour of the motion, All Progressives Congress (APC) senators, who were in majority, rejected it.

However, a motion calling for the probe of the utilisation of Subsidy Reinvestment and Empowerment Programme (SURE-P) funds by the immediate past administration was adopted by the senators.

The sponsor of the motion, Babajide Omoworare, prayed that every naira spent by the past government on SURE-P and other poverty alleviation programmes should be accounted for.

When the president of the Senate put the question, it was supported with a loud “aye” from the APC wing of the chamber, with no dissenting voice from the PDP side.

In his remarks, Mr. Saraki urged the senators to take the issue of unemployment very seriously and not play politics with it.

“We should stay above party line on this issue that is so important. We have seen growth in the last years but this has not translated to employment.

“Government alone cannot do it; the private sector has a role to play and the enabling environment must be created,” he said.

PDP leaders have lately called on President Muhammadu Buhari and the ruling APC to fulfil their campaign promise of paying N5, 000 to unemployed Nigerian youth.

The motion on Wednesday is believed to have been part of that call.

Not entirely accurate. The plan is to pay 25 million poor Nigerians that send their kids to school and get their children immunized. The stipend is not only for unemployed youths.

Another Buharimice———–on the loose with his thoughts again———–

All Progressives Congress, APC, presidential candidate, General Muhammadu Buhari (retd), has promised to provide allowances to discharged but unemployed Youth Corps members for Twelve (12) months while in the skills and entrepreneurial development programmes, if elected in 2015. There is also the pledge to provide One Meal a day for all Primary school pupils. Buhari/Osibanjo administration also vow to create a Social Welfare Program of at least Five Thousand Naira (N5000) that will cater for the 25 million poorest and most vulnerable citizens upon the demonstration of children’s enrolment in school and evidence of immunisation to help promote family stability. “As a nation and the Sub Saharan Africa’s leading energy producer, we had in the past squandered the opportunity to build functional infrastructure to better the lives of the average Nigerian. We can no longer afford this luxury of inactivity. We must revive our public and private sectors in order to provide functional services and secure the good of the individual Nigerian and his or her family,” Buhari said in a document that reveals some of his plans for 2015.

Did the APC say they will not fulfill their promise?

Is the program included in the 2015 budget?

Do the PDP understand due process and the rule of law?

Is the PDP still the ruling party that they can dictate how and when APC implement their programs?

Ifa Orunmilla a gbe yin oo. For the Islamic APC party there is no mercy in the grave. These greedy bungling rogues are cruel to the last man. They will never propose bills to create jobs for the youths, but they will not allow them to receive a paltry 5000 Naira. This money comes from the crude oil in SE SS, not from the labor or the APC lawmakers. How are the lazy APC touts in the Senate more intelligent than most of the unemployed youths? Denying them this money is cruel and ungodly. If care is not taken APC will provoke the masses into a bloody revolution that will eat up rouge politicians. Haba

The racist bigot Otile and his twisted logic!

LOL. The actual headline should have read:

APC SENATORS REJECT BILL TO PAY UNEMPLOYED YOUTHS 5,000 NAIRA.

It is one of the promises of the APC party during campaigns that they will pay 5,000 Naira per month to unemployed youths.

Now, If you read it properly it was meant to mock the APC government that they have not done anything they promised Nigerians.

If you read it properly, you will see that the bill was being sponsored by a PDP senator. And was to be seconded by Akpabio(another PDP sentaor).

The senate president called for support of the bill. All PDP senators shouted YES in support. But what did APC senators do. They all shouted NO to the bill. Even though it was one of their APC campaign promises.

SO PDP senators simply exposed that APC government cannot do anything they promised.

I believe both the blind and the deaf can now confirm that this government is a mistake! Any government that plays politics with the wellbeing of the unemployed youths is dancing on a gunpowder! APC government is inviting nothing but mayhem, revolution and kidnappings with this deceit.

One, stipends to undergraduates is part of APC manifestos or campaign promises but everybody knows that it can not be actualised now with dwindle economy but PDP senators wanted to present it asif APC had forgotten their promise or is failing to fulfill its promise knowing full well that it can’t be implemented now, i just see it as sagastical motion to embarrass APC. Lesson learnt is that campaign during the elections should based on reality not fictions.

The Forex Fever Growing and Growing in Jamaica

Jamaica - We’ve written three posts on online forex trading in Jamaica and the Caribbean and by far they represent 3 of the most read posts on SiliconCaribe. As a result of that we’ve been send a lot of information on fxtrader personalities. investment clubs , self taught traders and trading platform companies positioning themselves for the Jamaican market.

What we heard of recently. Investment Clubs. There is f1investments which is a group of Jamaican pilots some based locally and others in Dubai. they put in their own cash as well as accept members and submit the money to Olint trade on their behalf. I know someone who’s been with them for 4 months and they’ve been averaging a monthly return of 9%.

Then there is DeArgent (spelling dubious) which was around just after Olint started making the headlines. They are traders and also submit monies to Olint. Their investment rules are that a member is to keep their money invested for a minimum of 6 months, you can start with a US$1,000 minimum and their guaranteed monthly return is 5%. Then there is WorldWise, which you can start with as little as US$600 and the promise a monthly guaranteed return of 12% per month. And there are other individuals who are simply creating sub accounts under their name and take a percentage of the money earned on the account. Again easy money.

The trend towards investment clubs but not becoming a trader. The trend we’ve noticed in the information we’ve been collecting, is that Jamaicans prefer to learn about the online trading process, so they understand what traders do, become more aware of the market and how it works, but in the end, they prefer to hand out their US cash to trained and qualified trader. In the end they prefer to sit back and collect, than learn to trade, then sit and stress daily.

Great place to lose your shorts. Or an arm and a leg.

Like swimming with sharks.

These markets are all rigged today.

Front running, insider info, market manipulation, 24 hr trading, competition you can't even imagine - like playing golf against Tiger Woods - you must have balls of steel to even get in the game.

Hats off to you. Let us know how long it takes to lose your stack.

And, something you rarely hear: the MOST important part of trading is psychological.

For trading you need patience, practice, experience, knowledge, discipline, concentration, dedication and an uncontrollable urge to be successful.

Forex Spot market is suitable for small speculators but be aware of the bucketshops and be careful with the professionals, the strong holders will shake out the weak holders of the market.

Stock Trading in Bucket Shops

Jesse Livermore's Early Trading Career

In the late nineteenth and early twentieth century, the little guy who wanted to trade stocks usually did it in a bucket shop rather than through a stockbroker.

Bucket shops were set up in all sorts of premises, such as drug stores, hotels, cafйs, etc.

In bucket shops, "trades" were carried out instantly at the price quoted on the board. The prices came from Wall Street by a variety of means, including ticker-tape and telephone. The advantages of trading in a bucket shop were:

Bucket shops were happy to deal in very small amounts of money. There was no delay in trading caused by the time taken to telephone the order to the trading floor on Wall Street.

Each bucket shop was an internal market, trading on quotes from Wall Street but not on Wall Street itself.

Bucket shops, in truth, were little more than betting shops, where fools were quickly parted from their money. Although most bucket shops were not dishonest to the extent that they would refuse to pay a winner or that they would pretend prices had fallen when they had in fact risen, they were adept in employing more subtle ways of profiting from the greed of the would-be stock trader.

Trading in bucket shops invariably involved margin. If your stocks moved in the right direction, you would profit handsomely. If they moved even slightly against you, you would lose all of your money. The natural ups and downs of daily trading served to wipe out most positions, resulting in bucket shops frequently taking all of the money an individual had "invested".

Livermore's ability to interpret patterns in the stock prices enabled him to beat the bucket shops. He always traded alone - a lifelong habit.

"I began in the smaller bucket shops, where the man who traded in twenty shares at a clip was suspected of being John W. Gates in disguise or J. P. Morgan traveling incognito."

"I kept my business to myself. It was a one-man business, anyhow. It was my head, wasn't it? Prices either were going the way I doped them out, without any help from friends or partners, or they were going the other way, and nobody could stop them out of kindness to me. I couldn't see where I needed to tell my business to anybody else. I've got friends, of course, but my business has always been the same - a one-man affair. That is why I have always played a lone hand."

Livermore's Fortune Reaches $10,000 - But There's Trouble

Livermore's success soon caused him problems. Bucket shop owners began to recognize him as a consistent winner - and they only wanted to trade against losers. He began having to take smaller positions than he wanted to, or even lose money in his first trades, only to later hit the bucket shop with "stings" where he took large winning positions.

As he became widely recognized, the shops began refusing to take his trades. They called him the Kid Plunger. (Plunger = reckless speculator.)

"I tried the other branches one after another, but they all got to know me, and my money wasn't any good in any of their offices. I couldn't even go in to look at the quotations without some of the clerks making cracks at me. I tried to get them to let me trade at long intervals by dividing my visits among them all. But that didn't work."

Despite the bucket shops refusing to deal with him (if they recognized him - Livermore took to disguising himself) or only trading with him under severe handicaps - such as Livermore paying higher prices for stocks he wanted to buy and getting less for stocks he wanted to sell than other customers - Livermore continued to trade profitably. By the age of 20 his fortune had grown to $10,000.

He had now reached a point where bucket shops began cheating on prices to prevent him winning. It was time, he realized, to move on and begin trading through legitimate stockbrokers.

Almost all 'weekend FOREX training courses' are just meetings to push a software program that will cost you around $6000US.

Check around on the internet and you will see massive amounts of complaints about these software programs being rip-offs!

They make forex trading "look" easy based on their software example and tell you that for that particular weekend the special software is discounted to a 'special price' in special payment plan . They do NOT tell you it takes a LOT of money to make money in forex! They also do not tell you you can lose your most of if not your entire position and eventually your account in the blink of an eye!

AVOID these seminars and avoid forex trading!

thanks White Stance

To the OP, if you have to ask about it, you obviously don't have much knowledge about trading. No offense to you, you basically need to learn much more before you even attempt to trade. The markets have always been set up to seperate common guys from their money, some of the best minds and BIG pockets are against you. Even more so today, it's a VERY rigged market. My advice, don't spend that $6k and read the book below.

Download this book and read it for a VERY BASIC start. It's a good introduction for trading, if you must get into the market:

It's by Alexander Elder and titled: "Come Into My Trading Room - A Complete Guide To Trading"

Absolute evil DOES INDEED exist. It has existed from time immemorial and it is exceedingly well organized, interconnected and financed. That is what ZOG is all about!

A Midsummer NIght’s Dream

From 1988-1990, the PBSF founders produced events in association with the Chamber Theatre of the Palm Beaches and Young Audiences of Palm Beach County. Their success lead to the formation of the Shakespeare Festival in January 1990. Their premiere production was in March, featuring Shakespeare’s MACBETH at the Duncan Theatre, Palm Beach Community College, West Palm Beach campus, with Burt Reynolds as Honorary Chairman. In September 1990, PBSF moved to Carlin Park, Jupiter, and premiered Shakespeare by the Sea:A Renaissance Festival and PIay-in-the-Park . featuring Shakespeare’s comedy, TWELFTH NIGHT .

KUALA LUMPUR: The country's trade is likely to grow by two per cent in 2016 amid the challenging economic environment, said International Trade and Industry Minister Datuk Seri Mustapa Mohamed.

He said the growth would be supported by the government focus on trade in the Asean market.

"Among our focus will be Asean nations. Asean is the largest trading region which contributes significantly to Malaysia's total trade," he told reporters after launching the "Generation of New Exporters" programme here today. Mustapa said the government plans to increase the number of export-ready Bumiputera entrepreneurs via programmes under Young Entrepreneur Organisation Malaysia (GMB).

"We will ask them to increase programmes to help boost the country's exports for 2016 and 2017," he added.

GenEx, a specialised programme to help spur Bumiputera youth entrepreneurs' export ventures, is a collaboration between the Malaysia External Trade Development Corporation (MATRADE) and GMB.

GMB will be scouting 100 youth-owned companies in Malaysia to be GenEX participants, said MATRADE Chief Executive Officer Datuk Dzulkifli Mahmud.

He added that of the 100 companies, 30 will stand a chance to start exporting their products and services to five countries -- the United Kingdom, the United Arab Emirates, Singapore, the Netherlands and Qatar.-- BERNAMA

BankMuscat trains youth in forex transactions

Fifteen Omani youth from low-income families undergoing training in foreign exchange transactions as part of a corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiative by BankMuscat are progressing well to be employed with Global Exchange Company across the sultanate.

The bank’s CSR team visited the youth at BahwanCybertek where the training is underway to enhance the skills of the beneficiaries and raise their economic and social status.

The training comes under the bank’s ‘Jesr al Mustaqbal’ (Bridge to Future) integrated CSR programme, offering scholarships, training and rehabilitation directed at young Omanis dependent on social welfare and hailing from low-income families.

The seven-month training modules include basic English and business English and aspects covering foreign exchange trade and role of cashiers. Following theoretical classes, the trainees will undergo on-the-job training for two months.

The trainees, upon successful completion of the programme, will be absorbed in different branches of Global Exchange Company on a starting monthly salary of RO300.

Early this year, BankMuscat launched the ‘Jesr al Mustaqbal’ programme to provide relevant educational and training opportunities to Omani youth to develop employable skills.

To ensure continuity and success of the programme, the bank has allocated 20 per cent of its CSR budget for the programme.

A bank CSR official said, “Jesr al Mustaqbal is aimed at helping young Omanis receive proper education and vocational training that will enable them to develop employable skills and improve their living standards, social and economic status.

"This will also encourage them to positively participate in the service of society and development of the country.”

The bank is committed to CSR and thereby contributes towards sustainable development by working closely with local communities with the aim of improving living standards in a manner that serves the national economy and development process at the same time.

BankMuscat is the first Omani bank to establish a full-fledged CSR department.

United to stop flying to Dubai; Emirates will now fly US government staff

Published Thursday, December 10, 2015

United Airlines on Wednesday said it will cancel flight service between Washington and Dubai starting in late January, meaning no US passenger carrier will fly direct to the Gulf states.

The move comes after the US government awarded a government contract for travel on the route in 2016 to rival JetBlue Airways Corp and its codeshare partner Emirates, which will operate the Washington-Dubai flights, parent United Continental Holdings Inc. said in an Internet posting.

Dubai-based Emirates will carry an estimated 15,000 US government employees, United said, adding, "We formally protested this decision but were ultimately unsuccessful."

United, along with Delta Air Lines and American Airlines Group, have accused Middle Eastern carriers of receiving subsidies from their governments that let them buy more aircraft and drive down ticket prices. The Gulf airlines have denied the allegations.

Delta has planned to end all flights between Atlanta and Dubai starting in February 2016. It cited what it claims is "overcapacity" on routes to the region following the expansion of Emirates, Etihad Airways and Qatar Airways, which now serve a dozen US cities with around 200 flights per week. United said its customers will still be able to book travel to the region via its partners Deutsche Lufthansa and Air Canada.

NYSC orders staff to declare assets

by Bukola Amusan, Abuja, January 28, 2016 at 11:21 am in News. News Update

The National Youth Service Corps, NYSC has ordered its personnel whose assets declaration dates are due to make such declaration immediately in line with the code of conduct for public officers.

The Director-General of the NYSC, Brigadier General Johnson Olawumi gave the directive at the opening ceremony of its 2016 Annual Management Conference held Thursday.

He said the NYSC Management had been very consistent in the enforcement of periodic assets declaration by members of staff as well as ensuring strict adherence to policy guidelines in all aspects of the scheme’s operations.

Reviewing the activities of the scheme, Olawumi recalled with delight the participation of corps members in the successful conduct of the 2015 General Elections.

“I therefore wish to commend the political class, security agencies, and the electorate for their support to Corps members during the exercise. We assure all Nigerians that given such opportunity in the future, we will not disappoint the nation,” Añadió.

He also said the scheme, through its Health Initiative for Rural Dwellers (HIRD), launched a holistic medical outreach targeted at the rural poor nationwide last year.

The DG added that the programme would be sustained, and would especially be used in assisting the country to contain the spread of lassa fever.

Olawumi called on state governments as well as other international and private organizations to support the HIRD achieve its objective of contributing to quality healthcare delivery to all nooks and crannies of the country.

He also urged stakeholders, especially corporate bodies and individual philantropists, to assist towards sustaining the NYSC Hope Alive Initiative which was introduced with the aim of providing succor to corps members who suffer permanent disability during the service year.

The DG told the gathering that the scheme had installed latest security chips that could track a distressed caller easily, and went on to advise corps members to always call the NYSC Distress Call Centre whenever the need arises.

He thanked all host communities and security agencies nationwide as well as other stakeholders, including the Delta State Government, for their support towards the welfare and safety of corps members.

Earlier in his welcome address, the Director of Planning, Research and Statistics, NYSC Directorate Headquarters Venerable Temitope Ajayi said the AMC would generate ideas and formulate new strategies with the aim of enhancing productivity and service delivery for effective management of the youth.

“The focus of this conference is, therefore, to brainstorm and come up with practicable solutions that will reposition and promote the ideals of the scheme in the face of the present challenges of the operating environment,” Añadió.

Team Projects: Corps

As part of an SCA Corps Program, you’ll have the chance to work together with a team of other young people to accomplish targeted conservation goals.

Many Corps Programs take place in the backcountry, where members build trails, prevent forest fires, or restore critical habitat. Teams typically live together in a cabin or other central location and work on “hitches” — short-term, focused work trips guided by SCA field leaders.

Other Corps Programs work in urban or rural communities, where members team up to conduct environmental education or public outreach. Members may live together at one site, or work at individual sites within the same region.

Whether you are working in the backcountry or in the local community, SCA Corps Programs give you the opportunity to join up with other young people who share your passion for the outdoors, and gain connections with agency partners in the field. Corps positions range from 3 to 12 months, and are open to high school graduates ages 18 and up.

has been received by railroads for transportation of colored CCC enrollees to camp and back home again.

COLORED MEN AND BOY'S PARTICIPATION IN THE CCC

The Civilian Conservation Corps was established by President Roosevelt and the Congress on April 5, 1933. On the same day the late Robert Fechner was named Director. James J. McEntee, now Acting Director of the CCC, has been Assistant Director since its inception.

The purpose of Civilian Conservation Corps work is to relieve acute conditions of distress and unemployment in the United States and to provide for the restoration of the countries natural resources along with the advancement of an orderly program of useful public Works.

Civilian Conservation Corps enrollees are selected on a state-quota basis by the Labor Department from unemployed and needy young men. Veterans are selected by the Veterans' Bureau, and make up ten per cent of the total enrollment.

From the beginning of the Civilian Conservation Corps, colored youths have shared in the program. At the peak strength of the CCC, reached in August 1935, there were 506,000 young men and war veterans enrolled. Of this number, approximately 50,000 were colored.

Mindful of the health of these young men, medical officers from the U. S. Army Reserve Corps hare been assigned to look after their physical well being. Fourteen colored medical officers are now on active duty at CCC camps throughout the country. Each company is provided with a first-aid building, company, hospital, or dispensary with a medical officer in charge. Orderlies are appointed from among the enrollees.

The Office of Education has acted in an advisory capacity to the War Department in working out an educational and recreational program. Each company has an educational adviser, who develops a program suited to the individual needs of each camp. College graduates are appointed to fill these positions. Eleven thousand colored enrollees who were illiterate have been taught to read and write in classes offered by the CCC camps. There are today 147 colored men serving the CCC camps as education advisers. Most of the educational work is carried on at camp. Arrangements are often made, however, for enrollees to take additional school work in public school evening classes in nearby cities. The camp educational programs offer instruction in carpentry, shorthand, tying, forestry, auto mechanics, landscaping and numerous other vocational subjects. While attendance at classes is voluntary, approximately ninety per cent of the colored enrollees attend. Classes in first-aid, safety, morale, guidance, leadership and hygiene have been well attended. While at work, CCC enrollees are given practical instruction on the job by the project superintendent and the technical staff.

Baseball and soft ball diamonds, tennis courts and basket ball courts have been laid out to provide recreational facilities at the camps. Some of the camps have produced championship teams in baseball and other sports. Current movies, health education films, lectures on geography, conservation, history and other topics, and plays are included in the camp educational and entertainment program. Trips to nearby museums and other points of interest are frequently scheduled.

Six colored chaplains of the U. S. Army Reserve Corps direct the religious activities in a number of the colored camps. They are aided by ministers from nearby communities.

Through the experience and training received in the CCC, boys learn how to live together and work together amicably. Experience and training afforded by the CCC has helped many boys to secure employment. The specialized knowledge gained by filling such positions as mess sergeant, company clerk, assistant educational adviser, leaders, project assistants, store clerk manger, foreman and first-aid men has proved valuable to these enrollees in the Civilian Conservation Corps.

NOTE: A list of the different types of instructions received by colored CCC youths, as others, is herewith attached.

TYPES OF JOBS AND COURSES TAUGHT AT THE CCC CAMPS

Approximately 5,000 different courses in 116 different subjects are being given in Forest service oaks each month. In all camps, including National Park Service camps, probably 11,500 courses in 150 different subjects are being taught.

Jobs and subjects in which enrollees received. training under supervision of the CCC technical agencies:

Jay Mawji of Vantage FX (http://www. vantagefx. co. uk/) takes a look at news around the Eurozone on 18th January 2012 including a slight decrease in headline inflation.

Today the IMF stated the cost of the Eurozone; $600bn.

The board of the International Monetary Fund today estimated that it requires $500bn to bailout the Eurozone and another $100bn to act as a buffer. As worrying as this sum of money is, the IMF only has a lending capacity of $380bn and will rely on outside commitment such as the recently pledged European contribution of $200bn. However, more will be needed in the coming years as the IMF counts the total value package as needing to be $1trn. For an Economic Union that is virtually broke, unable to pay its debt and battling with internal political troubles, this is a lot of money. Private investors have been left disappointed by Greece attempting to cut 50% of debt in order to make bailout payments, whilst bond auctions in other European countries have not fared well either as the ECB has had to step in on numerous occasions to prop up disappointing bids. Despite the effect of contagion, other nations are unwilling or unable to participate in the additional commitment to bailing out the Eurozone. Britain walked away from a recent summit, keen to protect its financial industry and maintain economic independence. The United States is battling its own budget deficit and are pre-occupied with their slowing economy, war on Iran and of course a presidential election. Despite recent credit downgrades and continuing struggles in the Eurozone, the Euro has begun to gather some upward momentum in the hope that maybe the IMF will come to the rescue.

One of the key health checks for an economy is the unemployment figure. As far as today s unemployment figures go, the UK economy is terribly ill. Inflation is retreating, with the Bank of England confident growth will return but unemployment in the UK continuing to surge forward. There are now 118,000 more people unemployed in the UK, which is now 8.4% of the economy, the highest in almost 10 years. The main cause of unemployment comes from cuts in government spending which has seen government related employment shrink drastically. There was expectation that the private sector would usurp some of the public sector losses however with struggling growth and high inflation the private sector has shown little interest. What is extremely worrying is the level of youth unemployment which now stands at 22.3%, relating to over 1million of the country s unemployed youth. This will only continue to increase the burden on public expenditure and force the government s hand to restrict finances set for development of the economy.

Unfortunately for the youth, this will be one recession they will never forget.

There are quite a few men and women all through the globe who desire to understand English but who’re unable to attend a language school or to find an English teacher. In response to the demand from this important marketplace, the Callan Approach Organization is introducing a brand new version of the Strategy, adapted to ensure that college students can “Teach-Each-Other”.

It can be the language of enterprise, tourism and diplomacy. No matter if that you are attending an international meeting or looking for a far better job, speaking and understanding English is indispensable. How tricky is it learning a language so various from English. A: There? s 5 diverse tones you have to speak in, and also you need to say the tones just right.

How quite a few newspaper headlines have to be read a second time just before they develop into intelligible even to a native speaker? Very basically because quite significantly each nation wants his citizens to have the ability to speak English? Right after years of schooling, how several men and women can essentially speak great English?

Sadly, this is some thing our government teachers entirely ignore, perhaps partially for the reason that most of them aren’t in a position to speak the language fluently themselves. Only the teacher is the supply of understanding and college students are passive followers of the teacher as well as the text. The qualification is also recognised by colleges and governments around the globe. The TOEIC is really a paper-based, multiple-choice exam that utilises audio, visual and written materials.

English is the international language of business enterprise, travel, and diplomacy. Mastery of English is the greatest technique to allow you to come to be a global citizen. English is the language of science and technology, international politics and diplomacy, as well as the aviation and travel industries worldwide. Importantly, is estimated that over 50 per cent of all company negotiations are carried out in English.

When you want to find out to speak English nicely, you’re going to need to turn into that person you are able to not hate carrying out these issues. Have you ever heard of a person who became productive by undertaking one thing he hated? You produce your personal database of objects along with the program tests you on them. But that is not all! These two advantages alone have a positive impact in your organization career and personal life.

I often tried to create buddies from unique countries and so I was in a position to know them right after a though and we could laugh about the identical issues. I learned a good deal about other nations and cultures and I was actually impressed and interested at the exact same time. Considering understanding songs of one’s favourite bands? Do you intend to travel around the globe and be capable of communicate in English?

Find some grammar workouts. To understand English grammar nicely, you’ll want to practice every grammar point until you’ll be able to use it simply. Interference happens in all areas: pronunciation, tension and intonation, grammar, vocabulary also as techniques of thinking, methods of problem-solving. Even misunderstandings among nations are generally the direct product of this variety of interference. Have to have understanding of/use right English grammar and punctuation. Please give me an.

Homeland Security graduates first Corps of Obama’s Brown Shirts – Homeland Youth

It Makes Sense Blog October 18, 2012

The federal government calls them FEMA Corps. But they conjure up memories of the Hitler Youth of 1930’s Germany. Regardless of their name, the Dept of Homeland Security has just graduated its first class of 231 Homeland Youth. Kids, aged 18-24 and recruited from the President’s AmeriCorp volunteers, they represent the first wave of DHS’s youth corps, designed specifically to create a full time, paid, standing army of FEMA Youth across the country. On September 13, 2012, the Department of Homeland Security graduated its first class of FEMA Corps first-responders. While the idea of having a volunteer force of tens of thousands of volunteers scattered across the country to aid in times of natural disasters sounds great, the details and timing of this new government army is somewhat curious, if not disturbing.

DHS raising an armed army

The first problem one finds with this ‘new army’ is the fact that they are mere children. Yes, 18 is generally the legal age a person can sign a contract, join the military or be tried as an adult. But ask any parent – an 18, 20 or even a 24 year-old is still a naïve, readily-influenced kid.

The second problem with this announcement and program is its timing. Over the past two years, President Obama has signed a number of Executive Orders suspending all civil and Constitutional rights and turning over management of an America under Martial Law to FEMA. Also in that time, domestic federal agencies under DHS, including FEMA, have ordered billions of rounds of ammunition as well as the corresponding firearms. Admittedly, these new weapons and ammunition aren’t to be used in some far-off war or to fight forest fires in California, but right here on the streets of America.

Strange Armored Fighting Vehicles

Individuals around the US have begun reporting the site of strange, new, heavily-armed FEMA fighting vehicles. What would a disaster relief agency like FEMA need with 2,500 brand new GLS armored fighting vehicles? According to the agency’s own mandate, as well as President Obama’s recent Executive Order, the answer is ‘population control’ during a time of Martial Law.

One set of images made available by Rense. com shows trailer after trailer carrying these new DHS and FEMA armored fighting vehicles, complete with machine gun slots. They’re labeled with the usual backward American flag and the title, ‘Homeland Security’. Below that and the DHS logo, it also reads, ‘Immigration & Customs Enforcement’. Joining those markings, the black vehicles with white lettering also display ‘POLICE/RESCUE’ on one side and ‘Special Response Team’ on the other.

FEMA Deputy Administrator Rich Serino gave the keynote address at the ‘Induction Ceremony’ for the inaugural class of FEMA Corps members. According to the DHS website, ‘Corps members assist with disaster preparedness, response, and recovery activities, providing support in areas ranging from working directly with disaster survivors to supporting disaster recovering centers to sharing valuable disaster preparedness and mitigation information with the public.’

Serino describes what the first FEMA Corps class has accomplished so far, as well as where they’ll be going next:

‘Yesterday, we welcomed 231 energetic members into the first ever FEMA Corps class. The members just finished off their first month of training with our partners at the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS) and are one step closer to working in the field on disaster response and recovery. They will now head to FEMA’s Center for Domestic Preparedness to spend the next two weeks training in their FEMA position-specific roles. Once they complete both the CNCS and FEMA training, these 231 dedicated FEMA Corps members will be qualified to work in one of a variety of disaster related roles, ranging from Community Relations to Disaster Recovery Center support.’

Unlike most local disaster response teams who are volunteers, training periodically and only showing up when there’s a disaster, the FEMA Corps will be a paid, full time, standing army of government youth. FEMA Deputy Administrator Sarino goes on to explain, ‘The new members, who range in age from 18-24 years old, will contribute to a dedicated, trained, and reliable disaster workforce by working full-time for ten months on federal disaster response and recovery efforts.’

In closing his announcement of the first graduating class of FEMA Corps Youth, Sarino describes his and the agency’s vision of the future, one where ‘FEMA Corps sets the foundation for a new generation of emergency managers’.

As we detailed in the August 28 Whiteout Press article ‘History of DHS Ammunition Purchases’, federal emergency management agencies are looking more and more like a military army every day.

The federal government’s procurement website actually lists DHS’ requests for bids to supply it with ammunition and military weaponry. All of the orders listed in the above article, including the orders for hundreds of millions of rounds of ammunition, are publicly available at http://www. fbo. gov.

One look at a chart of DHS ammunition purchases over the past decade reveals a drastic spike in orders of bullets recently, totaling in the billions of rounds. Other charts available online show a similar drastic spike in the purchases of accompanying weaponry by the Department of Homeland Security.

What is the US federal government preparing for? And why does it feel it needs an army of brainwashed youth, millions of guns, thousands of armored fighting vehicles and literally billions of rounds of ammunition, just to provide relief to the American people during a natural disaster? Any historian will tell you it sounds more like the arming of the Hitler Youth than an army of first responders fighting forest fires and hurricanes.

Meet David J. Walker

Entrepreneur David J. Walker

Although David Joshua Walker grew up in the small town of Belfair, Washington, he never lost hope; He had the ambition to become a successful entrepreneur. His entrepreneurial experience started way back when he was 10 years old, when he designed his first online text based game. With time, the game grew in terms of specifications, as well as membership. In addition, David hired experts to code various sections of the game in an effort to enhance its performance and graphics. This idea formed the basis of his entrepreneurial quest as a technologist.

David’s Life Altering Events

Certain events have helped to shape David’s entrepreneurial and leadership skills. These events have influenced immensely what he has become today. First, graduating from high school imparted him with considerable knowledge to step into the world. Soon after high school, David joined the Marine Corps where he was stationed at Okinawa, Japan. This was a crucial step in his life as it took him to level where responsibility was well inculcated, not only for his own welfare but also for the welfare of others in the society. That is, it helped shape his attitude towards others, taught him the importance of service to the society and perseverance. His time as a Marine has served to develop and strengthen life-enriching values that have really come in handy in David’s entrepreneurial endeavors. Key among them is the tenet to never lie, cheat or steal. With these values, he is able to run his enterprises with utmost honesty and thus gain trust from customers, which translates to high customer attraction and retention. Moreover, he ensures that his clients receive the right quality of products that they desire. These values are not extended to customers alone, but also to every member of the society. David is an American expat that still lives in Okinawa with his family and is presently pursuing a Master’s Degree in Business Administration at University of Maryland University College, which will definitely enhance his entrepreneurial skills.

Career Objectives of David J. Walker

David’s career objective is to have a secure financial future, and realize multiple opportunities for investing in the society he inhabits. His professional goal is to work hard and tirelessly with a “never say die” attitude, to achieve his career objective optimally. The most significant achievement that David is proud of is the fact that he has built a successful company that employs many people who are in charge of different sections of the his company with great employees. In as much as the company acts as a source of David’s income, it has also created employment for many others, which is a source of fulfillment for David. His joy is to ensure that he create as much employment as possible especially to the youth.

Mentors

Lt. Gen Lewis “Chesty” Puller

Having a mentor or a role to look up to is highly beneficial for every entrepreneur. As a technologist, David’s role model is Bill Gates who, through innovation and consistency, has maintained the brand image of Microsoft despite the market volatility characterized by less life span of technological ideas and products. Additionally, he does not have the level of education as most of his peers and rivals, yet he is just as successful as them. In leadership, his role model is Lewis “Chesty” Puller who was a successful Lieutenant General of the Marine Corps as evidenced by numerous operations and awards that he won. For instance, between February 16 and August 19, 1930, Puller led five successful operations/engagements against large numbers of bandit forces with superior armory.

The Philosophy of David J. Walker

An entrepreneur must have a philosophy that he rides on when operating his businesses; the philosophy helps the entrepreneur to remain focused on his goals. David’s philosophy has always been never to give up no matter the circumstance, or the position that he finds himself. At times when his businesses are not doing well, this philosophy has enabled him to turn their fortunes around by having faith in what he does. As a result, David focuses on doing things that will assist in improving performance than contemplating on negative aspects. The same attitude enables his employees to keep faith in their duties and this collective effort further improves his firm’s performance.

David’s Past Forming his Future

Further, David’s leadership and entrepreneurial skills were developed by various roles and circumstances that he has been involved with in his childhood, school and post-school life. As a child, he fancied helping his parents in household chores among other duties, which helped to develop his humble demeanor. Such humble approach to life has helped him become affable with his employees, an aspect that has improved their commitment to the firm’s vision. David’s school life enhanced his ability to interact with different people and attitudes. This is crucial when dealing with customers. His time as a Marine has also had a significant impact on these skills. He underwent three months of training aimed at developing leadership skills, followed by a tour of duty in the Marine Corps meant to solidify the impact and outcomes of the training. The training also enhanced his leadership characteristics, offered him soft skills that are necessary to motivate employees in the modern-day work environment. From such experiences, David learned the value of treating people with the utmost respect, a trait that has helped foster better relations with employees and customers at DJW Network, LLC .

Cry the beloved youths

Posted by :Lestimes Posted date : November 7, 2013 In Big Interview Comments Off on Cry the beloved youths

By Tsitsi Matope

MASERU — Priority should be given to programmes that build the capacity of young people to become the drivers of economic development in Lesotho, the Acting Director for Youth in the Ministry of Gender, Youth, Sports and Recreation, Matseliso Letsie said this week.

Talking tough in an interview on Monday, Letsie said various stakeholders should understand the country’s future would be doomed if there are no multifaceted interventions that would ensure meaningful empowerment and development of the youth.

The department, which classifies the youth as anyone between the ages of 17 and 35, says it is concerned by high levels of poverty among young people and yet responsive efforts do not all reflect the urgency required to ensure a bright future for the country.

Letsie explained that weak support systems that are ineffective when it comes to tackling the challenges faced by the youths have given birth to some of the social ills associated, generally, with young people.

She said while some youths are blamed for committing crime, prostitution, drug and alcohol abuse and abortion, these should also be viewed as signs of systems failure on the part of all stakeholders who are supposed to participate in preventing and reducing vulnerability.

Letsie said the ripple effects of having young people who are incapacitated to participate in the development of the country are devastating and costly.

This, she explained, is seen from the amount of pressure exerted on various government departments and other support organisations.

Large numbers of those affected by HIV and Aids, she said, would mean large spending in the health sector while high crime incidence would also mean big budgets for the police, the judiciary and correctional service.

These factors, she added, would also generally have a negative socio-economic impact.

“It really pains me each time I come across young people struggling to make anything meaningful out of their lives.

“I feel responsible for their hopelessness because I know my department should be doing more – but also as a department, we need the crucial support from both the government and more so, the private sector to turn the tide and make provisions that could help improve the lives of the young people.”

She said high unemployment among the youths is a result of failure to put in place adequate measures that support quality skills development and create entrepreneurship financing opportunities.

“We are at the cross-roads and the route we opt for would determine the future of this country. If as a people we choose to ignore the challenges of the youths, we should then be prepared for the consequences that can further impoverish our society.”

She said the way forward was to ensure proper coordination of all youth programmes to avoid duplication of efforts.

“We also need to financially strengthen the current youth development programmes to make them more responsive to challenges, beef-up the numbers of youth development officers in the districts and at the same time, amend the National Youth Policy of 2003 to bring it in line with current demands.”

She explained currently, there is only one youth development officer in each district and these operate with very limited resources.

“Our structures should reflect an inclination to the advancement of young people. At the same time, it is also important that we have clauses in our National Youth Policy that can stimulate the participation of the private sector to take responsibility and also become part of the solution.”

She said for many years, there has been a disturbing trend that has seen some stakeholders pledging support for youth development but with other ulterior motives.

“Meaningful interventions are those that can provide economic independence and not expose young people to exploitation.”

She emphasised the need to seriously confront challenges through a review of youth development programmes.

“We need to take stock of our current programmes and gauge their effectiveness. Let’s ask ourselves: How many young people are economically independent as a result of the training programmes we are offering under this department? What are the standards of qualification and is that good enough to help them become independent?

Would we want our own children to get such training? If the answer is not positive, then it’s time we make some good changes.”

She said her department, through the Ministry of Gender, is currently implementing the National Volunteer Corps Programme, which attaches graduates from various tertiary institutions to various government departments and the private sector for a year.

The programme, which has been funded by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) since 2009, seeks to address challenges faced by many graduates who fail to get employment due to lack of experience.

Letsie said the graduates are paid an incentive of M2 000 per month with the hope that after a year, they would have acquired the necessary experience and would be incorporated in the organisation, since their contracts are non-renewable.

“However, this is not always the case and that is our biggest challenge in this programme.”

She explained that currently more than 5 000 youths have registered for the volunteers programme and some have also registered with the Public Service. “Currently 625 volunteers are working at various organisations.”

Letsie said another programme, the Youth Employment, provides the youths with entrepreneurship skills for them to have capacity to start and run sustainable businesses.

“The aim is to provide skills that can help young people create decent employment and promote social cohesion. We believe an empowered youth is a progressive movement that cannot be easily badly influenced because they are hungry.”

She said many young people are eager to start projects but lacked the start-up capital.

“We had hoped that the Partial Credit Guarantee Scheme launched last year, would have a component that supports youth development but later we realised that the majority of our young people do not qualify for such support.”

She said the establishment of a Youth Development Fund could be one of the immediate solutions to the current lack of projects financing.

On the other hand, the Young Ambassadors for Positive Living is yet another programme targeting high school students.

Under the programme, 10 resource centres were established in all districts and 120 youth leaders were employed.

The youth leaders provide various training in the areas of HIV and Aids, anti - alcohol and drug abuse and also computer literacy.

The leaders are paid an incentive by the Global Fund while the Commonwealth also supports some components of the programme.

“The resource centres are a positive start but we still need to do more to ensure the services reach out to all young people. We should also add components that realistically address poverty in this programme.”

She said a boost of the Social Compact Programme to ensure meaningful participation of the youth in food production can also help alleviate poverty and improve food insecurity.

“This programme oversees the training of young people in various agricultural technologies and practices and also ensures they access inputs such as seed and fertiliser. We have established greenhouses at the districts resource centres of Berea, Qacha’s Nek, Quthing, Mafeteng and Mokhotlong.

Through our youth development officers in those areas, the youth can utilise these facilities.”

The programme, which experienced some inputs hitches last year, is expected to resume this farming season.

Campus Connections ( formerly known as Campus Corps )

Campus Connections ( formerly known as Campus Corps ) is a multidisciplinary service learning course at CSU where undergraduate students serve as mentors to youth. Students from over 65 different majors work one on one with youth ranging in age from 11-18 who are referred to Campus Connections from our community partners within the juvenile justice system of Larimer County, local schools, community agencies, and directly from families.

Student mentors spend four hours once a week with their mentee in a group setting to provide academic support and career planning, encourage positive social skill development, assist with goal setting, and implement wellness programming. Strong bonds are developed over the 12 week program between mentors and mentees. Graduate students and experienced mentors serve as mentor coaches to provide support and guidance during Campus Connections.

How is Campus Connections different from other mentoring programs? Campus Connections ( formerly known as Campus Corps ) was developed in response to an identified community need to better serve youth. Through an ideal university-community partnership between Colorado State University and the Northern Colorado community, Campus Corps provides mentoring to youth, ages 11-18, in a structured, intentional multi-level mentoring community. Youth who are at risk of not reaching their full potential due to individual or environmental risk factors are referred to Campus Corps and matched with an undergraduate college student enrolled in a service-learning course. Doctoral-level licensed MFTs direct and supervise the program along with Masters-level family therapist instructors. Utilizing highly-trained experts in systemic and therapeutic interventions, Campus Corps creates an environment in which each mentor-mentee pair is nested within a small mentoring group, known as a Mentor Family, where the youth are of similar ages. This unique feature of Campus Corps allows youth to positively interact with their peers while benefiting from their primary adult mentor and the community of caring adults within their Mentor Family. Because Campus Corps is located entirely on a college campus, youth experience firsthand the possibilities of education and the importance of learning. Campus Corps is grounded in evidence-based practices for youth mentoring and is conducting rigorous research to maximize the intervention effects. Through this research program, we are developing, testing, and disseminating our unique contributions to youth mentoring nationally.

FOREX: Nigeria's Economic Catastrophe From Godwin Emefiele's Prison Economics A most respectable and ingenious Nigerian big businessman, Leo-Stan Ekeh has just predicted the collapse of 99% of Nigerian businesses will be by March this year. ¡Guauu! It was clearly coming, but by March!

Though I am not an economist, I have lived and traded long enough to know that Godwin Emefiele's Prison economics leads to only one thing: economic collapse and catastrophe. Is he doing this on purpose to prompt riots and turmoil to bring down Buhari or is he doing this by desperation?

The real reason is not as important as the impact regardless. Punishing Nigeria's employers for the sins of Jonathan and Godwin past is certain to destroy the country and end this regime. The CBN Forex restrictions have been employed most harshly on Small businesses. Godwin convinced Buhari as was heard from his media chat that giving Forex access to Industry(large) was the way to go. In my opinion, Godwin simply planned to save his friends while tanking the Nigerian economy and leading to the largest nation-wide job loss cataclysm in recent history. Permit me to quote from my last week's article on how these policies are a sham:

"Big industry are owned of course by the Cabal; many such Cabal looted billions of Nigeria’s national earnings to establish their companies; but punishing them for this is not even the issue. The issue is that big industry is the small employer of labor. This is a known fundamental fact of economics especially in the developing world.

"SME (Small and Medium Enterprises) is the largest employer of labor. The companies that you and I run; we are the people that employ 75% of labour in Nigeria. It is the same in India, China, Malaysia, Brazil and so on. SMEs across the world employ anywhere between 70 and 80% of labor. The so-called big industries only employ a tiny fraction of labor.

"Developed societies have actually moved from “manufacturing goods” to service economies. Lot’s of such services are provided by small and medium enterprises who are being starved of dollars.

"The strict and partial moves being employed by the current administration in these trying times are very risky and may implode the nation before they possibly alleviate the crisis and before they may yield the needed returns. Thousands of small and medium enterprises are folding across the nation due to the shortage and denial of foreign currency. Nigeria has not yet developed its manufacturing sector and a significant amount of SMEs depend on various completed and partially manufactured materials from abroad. These businesses are unable to get access to their raw materials, tools or traded products. The implication is catastrophic."

And Godwin Emefiele knows this. We do not manufacture yet as a nation and we cannot substitute for that in a day. You cannot force the building of a robust non-dependent economy by suddenly forcing the people with Prison economics. By stopping Nigerians from using their own money to purchase raw materials, marketable goods and services abroad and canceling the legitimate rights of people to take their profit and earnings where they want, you will discourage economic growth, and indigenous and foreign investment.

Godwin Emefiele while he gave the looters suitcases of billions of dollars has since Jonathan's time step-wise harshly monitored and restricted the capacity of small entrepreneurs. Those who read my writings know that I have tracked Godwin's colonialist economic enslavement moves at every turn and warned of their implications. We are today finally at the point of literally zero economic freedom and no access to foreign exchange. Prison economics is complete and now feel the pain.

I am sure this man is still there because his cup is not yet full. At the fullest of time, he must give some answers to Nigerians!

I don't know what President Buhari is waiting for before sacking this man. His policies are not wise especially the restrictions Barry

EFCC should question CBN governor over his involvement in #Dasukigate.

What is wrong with you guys now? We don't have the fucking forex! They are trying to manage what's on ground. We have drawn down our external reserves to $29b yet the outlook in the international oil market is that of doom and gloom. Ask yourselves, if they remove the restrictions, where are we going to get the forex to service all demands?

Universal Robina Corp. reports robust income growth on back of higher operating income, increase in market valuation, and forex gains

The Gokongwei-controlled Universal Robina Corp. one of the country’s largest branded food product company, reported a 47-percent jump in its net income for its first fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2105 to P4.8 billion.

Universal Robina began operations in 1954 manufacturing corn starch under the name Universal Corn Products Inc. The company has since gone into the manufacture and distribution of branded food products, hog farming and even into renewable energy.

Universal Robina is the dominant player in the savory snacks business, candies and in the ready-to-drink tea market.

Universal Robina generated P30 billion in revenues in the quarter ending December 31, 2015, more than 80 percent of which came from its branded consumer foods group that brought in P24.7 billion. Its packaging business generated P315 million in revenues, its agro-industrial group brought in P2.3 billion in sales, and its commodity foods group raked in P2.7 billion.

Domestic sales of its branded consumer foods group account for more than half the company’s total revenues at P15.7 billion while international sales of the branded consumer foods group brought in P9 billion in revenues.

The company said its branded food group’s international operations reported a 19-percent increase in net sales during the period, with top line growth coming in from Vietnam, Indonesia and New Zealand.

In Vietnam, strong growth was seen in its ready-to-drink beverage business, specifically C2 and Rong Do while Piattos and Cloud 9 crunch drove sales in Indonesia.

Universal Robina expanded its reach in New Zealand and Australia with the acquisition of Griffin’s Foods Ltd. a leading snacks player in New Zealand that carries the brand names Griffin’s, Cookie Bear, Eta, Huntley & Palmer‟s, Nice & Natural, and Chip Off the Old Block. The purchase cost Universal Robina $608 million. (Eileen A. Mencias)
