You're too focused on the negatives. 1.) You don't have to go permanently. 2.) You can quickly build a home, acquire investment properties, and setup businesses in Nigeria, given the exchange rate. 3.) You may get a job there that allows you to easily secure a good position in Nigeria. 4.) Lagos is only a 6-hour flight away from London. ETA: Being based in London would make it much easier to secure a good oil and gas position. Bro! $$$$$$ |

Wealth7723:Ideas for cuts: - Throwback cut. Short afro pompadour, fluffed out. - Short afro with sponge curl. - Long twist outs, and maybe short in the back (but might make you look like a teen). - Afro, shorter on sides, longer on top, with twist outs (looks more grown [it looks better than that, but that's the only pic I could find])

There is no such thing as "s** work." It's sick and evil to attach the word "work" to trafficking. That's what it is, trafficking, whether they consent or not. Society and law should be protecting people from these kinds of behaviors, not encouraging destruction. Testing, Psychometrics, Methodology in Applied Psychology, Machocracy: Dehumanization and Objectification of Women: Objectification theory posits that women are objectified when they are perceived as commodities or objects for the use of others, and their individuality and personality are denied (Fredrickson & Roberts, 1997). It is...dehumanization because women are merely considered for instrumental useJournal of Sex and Marital Therapy, Pornography Use, Two Forms of Dehumanization, and Sexual Aggression: Attitudes vs. Behaviors: Both lines of studies consistently have found a significant association between sexual objectification and both aggressive attitudesPsychiatric Times, Prostitution is Sexual Violence: In nine countries, across widely varying cultures, we found that two-thirds of 854 women in prostitution had symptoms of PTSD (Farley et al., 2003)...comparable to treatment-seeking combat veterans...battered women seeking shelter...r-pe survivors...and refugees from state-organized tortureThe same things you can say about pornography are the same things you can say about hookers, pimps and johns: https://www.nairaland.com/8167499/porn-myth porn “discourages empathy,” and...a better path is to return to a culture of mutual respect between women and men....it is a manly thing to treat with respect even a woman who has forgotten her dignity...porn culture today impacts much more than our sexuality; it is our humanity that is clearly at risk. |

*knock on wood* I don't think Canada will snatch your PR. I hope not. I think their biggest concern is the Indians flooding the country. Have you considered some other possibilities? 1.) How uncomfortable are you willing to be? Have you explored IT jobs working on US military bases outside the US? 2.) Do you have enough to invest in real estate in Canada? 3.) What does your wife do for a living? Is she training in something high-paying? |
What are you using this car for? Have you considered starting multiple businesses with that money? |
ReacherSaidNoth:People in the "developed" world don't even like each other, of course they're not getting married and having kids. lol |
GodisStriking:Deranged white racists (and deranged mixed race racists) don't determine who is and is not black. Black people determine who is and is not black. You are not black when you are biologically 40, 50, and 60% something else. I don't give a f-u-c-k what crackers have to say about it. |

Wealth7723:A good way to avoid this issue is simply to not cut your hair or beard too close. Also, no tight braids or locs. |
I'm sorry, but if my son or daughter did this, I would beat their ass like a thief. |
Samantha125:That's definitely not true. But the mixed ones love to state that because they want biracials to be the face of black people, and they want actual black people to have no voice or power. |
ednut1:Its also not a secret, though people seem to forget, that long after slavery, a lot of white men sexually assaulted black women working in their homes, offices, and when black women were out alone. It's not something that began and ended with slavery. And even though the admixture comes from that, many "black" Americans chose to maintain that admixture by only having children with other mixed people. Today, that's still a thing. Furthermore, many of these people do not have majority black blood, and they're definitely antiblack racists. |

Meta has revealed that this year alone, it has removed more than two million accounts behind the notorious “pig butchering” scams, which use manipulation and deception to extort money from victims. The company explains that the people behind these emails are often victims of crime themselves and have been tricked into working for “scam slave operations.” Meta adds that it is working with government agencies in countries including Myanmar, Laos, the United Arab Emirates, the Philippines, and Cambodia to stop these operations in what has been a difficult year for social media scams. These types of scammers are working across Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, and Messenger. Meta explains that this type of scam is devastating as the scammer will take time to build a relationship with the victim. They will then manipulate them to deposit more and more money into an investment scheme. They often ask for cryptocurrency, but there is no investment and the money is gone for good. The teams behind this type of scam are run by organized crime and emerged in the Asia Pacific region during the Pandemic. Meta adds that the people who are actually sending the generic messages are victims themselves. They are forced to send out generic messages to large numbers of Meta users in what is known as a ‘spray and pray’ tactic. If someone responds, they then engage with them and will direct them to a fraudulent website that looks like an investment platform. They might allow money withdrawals initially but after that, the money only goes one way. The social media company has now removed the offending accounts and is working with local authorities to close down operations in their countries. However, it is relentless. Users of Meta’s platforms are advised to enable two-factor authentication on their accounts, but they might also want to use the selfie verification pathway to restore access to stolen accounts, says Meta. It adds that users should always treat unsolicited communications with caution and move on if you are ever asked for money on social media. If it seems “too good to be true,” then it probably is. https://tech.co/news/meta-two-million-scam-accounts |

Suspect indicted for attempting to illegally withdraw nearly $150K from banks in Rocky River, North Olmsted CLEVELAND — A Cuyahoga County grand jury has indicted 39-year-old Huishen Yang on charges connected to his alleged attempt to illegally withdraw a total of $148,000 from banks in Rocky River and North Olmsted. According to the Cuyahoga County Prosecutor's Office, Yang was indicted on the following charges: Two counts of attempted grand theft Two counts of identity fraud One count of forgery One count of possessing criminal tools One count of theft Yang is scheduled to be arraigned at the Cuyahoga County Justice Center on Dec. 4 at 8:30 a.m. Prosecutors say Yang's attempts to illegally withdraw cash came on the same day at a pair of Third Federal Savings Bank locations last week. At around 10:23 a.m. on Nov. 14, investigators say Yang entered the Third Federal on Center Ridge Road in Rocky River. "He (Yang) spoke to a teller and asked to withdraw $60,000 from a bank account that was not his using a false identification card," the prosecutor's office stated. "The teller alerted a supervisor for potential fraud and the bank called the police. Yang then fled the scene. Rocky River Police Department responded to the scene." Yang allegedly then arrived at the Third Federal on Lorain Road in North Olmsted approximately 40 minutes later. "He spoke to a teller and asked to withdraw $88,000 from the same bank account he had attempted to withdraw money from in Rocky River using a false identification card. The teller immediately called North Olmsted Police and they responded to the scene," prosecutors added. Authorities say Yang was arrested at the scene and had three false identification cards, seven stolen credit/debit cards, and three cell phones when he was taken into custody. In addition, investigators learned that Yang entered the country on a travel visa in California on Sept. 2 of this year. “I want to thank the bank employees, North Olmsted Police Department, and Rocky River Police Department for their quick actions and diligent work in stopping Huishen Yang from stealing $148,000,” said Cuyahoga County Prosecutor Michael C. O’Malley. “This matter remains under investigation, if you have any information, please contact the North Olmsted Police Department.” Contact North Olmsted Police Detective Sean Ventrice at 440-777-3535 if you have any information on this case. https://www.wkyc.com/article/news/crime/cuyahoga-county-suspect-indicted-illegal-attempted-withdraw-nearly-150k-rocky-river-north-olmsted-third-federal-banks-huishen-yang/95-ba4b9c5c-31c8-48ca-b8c9-0f19a8cf7153

The taskforce was meant to be supporting the Transnational Serious Organised Crime Pacific Taskforce, an initiative launched by the Australian Federal Police in 2019 and which partners the AFP with police in New Zealand, Fiji and Tonga. Qiliho was suspended as Fiji’s police chief and charged alongside former prime minister Frank Bainimarama over unrelated corruption allegations in 2023. Earlier this month, Qiliho was found guilty of abusing his public office and fined $FJ1500 ($1011) without conviction. Prosecutors immediately appealed against that decision. Further charges, which Qiliho and Bainimarama both contest, are still before the Fijian courts. There is no suggestion Qiliho was personally compromised by the Zhao syndicate, although he has a personal relationship with Zhao and they use the same lawyer. Qiliho did not respond to questions. The intelligence collected by security agencies in Australia and Fiji identifies a taskforce official as the intermediary for the Zhao syndicate and responsible for directing a small clique of other police investigators to do the syndicate’s bidding. This police officer is suspected of liaising with two senior members of the Zhao syndicate, Chinese crime figure Lum Bing and Fijian national Jason Zhong, who are linked to a message sent in early 2021 to the policeman via an encrypted messaging application. The message stated: “See if you can do as much as possible, from a few dozen to hundreds to thousands. You can make money or a cut.” Lum is a British national who moves across the Asia-Pacific region and has been arrested repeatedly over the past three decades for serious organised criminal offences, including running a network of industrial-scale drug labs in 2004. Zhong was convicted in 2004 in connection to what was at the time Fiji’s biggest drug operation, and was later convicted for sex trafficking. He has reinvented himself in Fiji as a businessman who, like Zhao Fugang, has deep connections to the nation’s political elite. Lum and Zhong could not be contacted. The allegedly corrupt police officer is suspected to have co-ordinated other Fijian police to carry out tasks for the Zhao syndicate. Official sources said those tasks included storing large amounts of drugs in Fiji, co-opting local criminals to help the syndicate and arranging the sale of drugs to outlaw motorcycle gangs in Australia or New Zealand. The revelation the Zhao syndicate is suspected of infiltrating Fiji’s most elite police taskforce will place further pressure on the Rabuka government, which was forced to respond to the reports of Zhao’s designation as an Australian Priority Organisation Target. Zhao’s designation, including for his role developing Chinese political interests in Fiji, also sparked a fierce reaction from China’s Foreign Affairs Ministry, which labelled the allegations “fake news”. Australian policing agencies have listed Zhao as an Australian Priority Organisation Target over allegations he was seeking “to influence the [South Pacific] environment to provide cover for Chinese organised crime” and provide “a Fijian ‘safe hub’ for drug shipments” bound for Australia. https://www.smh.com.au/politics/federal/criminals-infiltrate-the-elite-taskforce-formed-to-stop-drugs-landing-in-australia-20240422-p5flkp.html |
An elite Fijian police taskforce working with Australia and New Zealand to fight surging drug trafficking and organised crime in the Pacific region is suspected to have been secretly compromised by a powerful criminal syndicate. Australian security officials’ concerns that members of the Fijian police commissioner’s illicit drug taskforce have been working for the Zhao syndicate are detailed in police files seen by this masthead and briefings provided by officials in Suva. The revelations highlight the challenge Canberra faces responding to major security threats in the South Pacific, spanning corruption and organised crime amid an intensifying geopolitical contest with Beijing for influence. Three Australian government officials, speaking anonymously to discuss confidential information, confirmed the Albanese government was poised to announce a major increase in security aid across the South Pacific, but was concerned it would be complicated if there were questions over corruption. Pio Tikoduadua, the home affairs minister in Sitiveni Rabuka’s Fijian government that was elected in 2022, conceded some Fijian police officers appeared to be aiding regional drug traffickers targeting Australia. “I think it’s pointing that way. And I’m trying to do something about it right now. I’d be lying if I’m not concerned about our Fiji police force,” Tikoduadua said in a recent interview with this masthead. Rabuka separately warned of “rogue elements” in Fiji’s police force. “We just have to be very aware of them and make sure that the non-rogue ones, the genuine ones … are more awake than those that might want to get up to mischief,” the prime minister told this masthead. The security briefings seen by this masthead show high-ranking Australian and Fijian police believe that by about early 2021, key members of the Zhao syndicate had cultivated members of an elite counter-narcotics taskforce created by Fiji’s police commissioner, Brigadier General Sitiveni Qiliho. The Zhao syndicate comprises a network of criminals and facilitators spanning the South Pacific and is allegedly led by Zhao Fugang, a powerful Fijian businessman and Chinese Communist Party operative. Last month, this masthead and 60 Minutes revealed that Western agencies secretly considered Zhao an alleged crime boss even as he spent years gathering business and political influence in Suva. Zhao was designated one of Australia’s highest-priority criminal targets in July 2023. Zhao has denied any wrongdoing and there is no suggestion by this masthead that he is guilty of any offence, only that Australian agencies have listed him as a high-level criminal threat. Experts said Zhao’s designation as a major Australian police target was especially significant in light of the businessman’s extensive work to build Chinese Communist Party influence in Fiji, which has included strengthening formal ties between Chinese and Fijian police. According to the official briefing papers, corrupt officers in the Fijian police commissioner’s illicit drug taskforce allegedly helped the Zhao syndicate as it managed drugs passing through Fiji, and helped connect supply hubs to drug markets in Australia and New Zealand.

BEIJING, Nov 21 (Reuters) - China and Myanmar's law enforcement agencies have "wiped out" all large-scale telecom fraud centres operating in northern Myanmar, Chinese state media reported on Thursday, after an operation at the weekend saw more than 700 arrested. China launched a campaign last year to combat telecom fraud in Myanmar following a surge in crimes targeting Chinese citizens. Since then, more than 53,000 Chinese nationals suspected of involvement in frauds have been arrested, the official Xinhua news agency reported, citing China's Ministry of Public Security. On Nov. 17, authorities arrested 763 Chinese suspects in Tangyan, in northern Myanmar, including 69 fugitives, Xinhua reported, adding that the suspects and relevant evidence had been handed over to China. "Under the intensified crackdown and deterrence, fraud perpetrators have continuously relocated deeper into Myanmar, moving to areas such as Wan Hai, Tangyan, and Myawaddy," Xinhua said. "Public security authorities will continue to maintain a high-pressure crackdown on cross-border telecom fraud ... Intensify efforts to strengthen law enforcement collaboration, resolutely eradicating the 'cancer' of telecom fraud," the report cited an official from the ministry as saying. More than 100,000 people engaged in telecom fraud each day in at least 1,000 scam centres in Myanmar, Chinese state media reported last year. China's Premier Li Qiang, in a meeting with Myanmar junta leader earlier this month, called for joint efforts to combat cross-border crimes, including online gambling and telecom fraud. https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/china-claims-wipe-out-large-telecom-fraud-centres-northern-myanmar-2024-11-21/ |
CLEVELAND — A 40-year-old Cleveland woman has been accused of illegally voting in five different elections since 2020, according to the Cuyahoga County Prosecutor's Office. Though Fiona Allen is a legal resident of the United States, prosecutors say she is not an American citizen. According to an indictment, however, that didn't stop her from improperly registering to vote in March of 2020 before voting in that year's November election, with more ballots to follow in the primary and general elections in both 2022 and '23. A grand jury on Thursday charged Allen with five counts of illegal voting and one count of false voter registration. If convicted, she could face up to 11 1/2 years in prison. Allen's alleged crimes stem from March 7, 2020, when authorities say she filled out a voter registration card and answered "no" when asked if she was a U.S. citizen. Per officials, the card "explicitly states in the instructions that if you answer 'no' to the U.S. citizenship question, you should not complete the registration card," though prosecutors did not indicate how her registration was even approved if she confirmed she was not a citizen. Illegal voting has become a hot button issue among politicians and prosecutors alike in recent years and weeks. Back in October, prior to the 2024 general election, Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost indicted three Northeast Ohio residents for alleged illegal voting in past elections dating back to 2014. However, Cuyahoga County Prosecutor Michael O'Malley claims one of those accused — North Royalton resident Ramesh Patel — actually died in December 2022. "This is one of the greatest examples of prosecutorial overreach I have ever witnessed. The practice of indicting the deceased is draconian," O'Malley said in a scathing statement last month. "This is not how we would have handled this case in my office. I am calling on Ohio Attorney General David Yost to immediately dismiss this indictment." While voter fraud does happen in Ohio and elsewhere, experts say it is extremely rare. In August, Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose referred nearly 600 cases to Yost's office on accusations of illegal voting or improper voter registration, but only six of those cases have led to indictments so far. https://www.wkyc.com/article/news/local/cleveland/cleveland-woman-indicted-illegally-voting-5-elections/95-152ddee2-7384-4371-a3c1-2ab66f28871d |
