NATURALIZACIÓN , PANAMÁ --- I had to return to the immigration office today to pay my $25.00 fine to avoid being "illegal" in Panama.

E-publishing has made it possible for information to reach areas it once couldn't so people can advance themselves educationally, while e-commerce has made it possible to be located anywhere in the world and buy and sell products and services as well as obtain an outsourced job for a company that may be stationed in another country. This decreases the amount of people that immigrate to seek a better education and those looking for work. People still immigrate for other reasons like freedom etc. but the immigration rate will continue to drop in contrast to this old image of a packed boat of new immigrants.

Bolton’s Neighbourhood Team joined partners on Monday to seize nearly one-hundred canisters of nitrous oxide in addition to cannabis, illegal tobacco, and illicit vapes in a day of action.
The group, which included local officers, trading standards, immigration officials, the fire service, and specialist sniffer dogs carried out the searches at six premises on Derby Road, Bolton, including restaurants, shops, and takeaways.
The activity was carried out to ensure that work was being conducted legally and within the confines of their licenses. This included dealing with reports of illegal activity that have come in from the local community, such as anti-social behaviour, suspected drug-related criminality in the area, and more.
Immigration officials checked the legality of workers, the dogs checked for illegal tobacco and cash hordes, and the fire service checked to ensure buildings were adhering to the appropriate health and safety rules.
The day resulted in numerous positive results, including the recovery of 97 canisters of nitrous oxide gas from two vehicles which were identified by the sniffer dog team.
Nitrous Oxide became a Class C drug in 2023, which allows police further powers to seize and arrest those who possess and sell it for illegal purposes. The two cars were seized by officers.
In addition, a quantity of cannabis in snap bags was located, as well as illicit vapes which do not conform to UK standards. All were seized by police and trading standards.
The activity in the area will continue as officers bid to clamp down on suspected criminality, which will include further visits, proactive patrols, stops, and more.
Anyone in the Bolton area and who has information they would like to pass to police are asked to contact their local neighbourhood policing team. You can do this by speaking to an officer in the street, attending a PACT meeting, or by reporting the information online at gmp.police.uk.
You can also contact Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.
Sergeant Oliver Cooper, from GMP’s Bolton district, said: “When people let us know about suspected illegal activity in their area, we investigate it to the best of our ability and utilise all the resources we have available.
“Illegal business practices and illegal behaviour will be dealt with accordingly and with the safety and security of local people at the forefront of any decisions. Monday’s actions show just how much we are dedicated to reducing crime in the Bolton area.
“If you have any concerns or tips that you’d like to pass on, I would urge you to get in touch with us.”

New York City celebrates Immigration Heritage Week annually and there was a concert in my neighborhood commemorating the event. It so happens that we have a high percentage of immigrants in Upper Manhattan, so neighbors and folks from other parts of the city came to share their cultural heritage.
I met Irka Mateo as we got off the shuttle bus that the MTA provided in lieu of subway service. (Weekends is when the transportation system is like playing Russian Roulette in New York City. You never know if your train is running and, if so, what route it will be taking and whether or not it'll be stopping where you planned to get off!)
I directed her to where the concert was taking place and asked her if she was going to perform. When she said she was a singer of Dominican folk music, I was totally intrigued! She thought she was running late, but the program had been delayed, so all was well.
Irka was the final artist on the program and was accompanied by two drummers (one of whom is pictured here). In addition to playing the maracas, Irka plays other percussion instruments, including the güira.

Like all human beings, Idaho’s immigrants deserve respect for their dignity and human rights, regardless of their immigration status. This has yet to become a reality. Though immigrants bring prosperity to Idaho, they are often denied the opportunity to share in that prosperity.
Immigration is stimulated by economic forces and policies that immigrants do not control – and from which they may not even benefit. Historically immigrants were sought after and recruited by employers, and Idaho businesses still rely on immigrant workers – as do the customers and clients of these businesses. And the economy of the United States as a whole increasingly depends on immigrants. Yet the immigration system established by the U.S. federal government is out of touch with this reality.
U.S. immigration policy denies the means to acquiring official status and citizenship to millions of immigrants who are leading lives much like those of their native-born neighbors – working, raising families, participating in community activities, paying taxes. Without official status, many immigrants have no real security for the future. They will never be able to access the benefits to which they have contributed, and they remain vulnerable to violations of the most basic of rights. This system creates inequalities that harm all who live in Idaho, whether immigrants or Idaho-born.

Essay: “Adios, Ann: Coulter Trashes Nikki Haley” at wp.me/p4jHFp-7m.
Coulter called Nikki Haley an ignorant immigrant! In reality, Haley is a native South Carolinian well-versed in its history.
According to Coulter’s logic, Nikki Haley had to be ignorant because she was an immigrant and she had to be an immigrant because of her ethnicity.
In a recent tweet, Coulter compared Haley to terrorists! It wasn't that long ago when Coulter compared Hillary Clinton to Josef Mengele!
