   ….needed, and the complexity creates danger. All of this for great cost yet very little gain. I don’t know about you, but I don’t want Albert Einstein to be my pilot. I want great flying professionals that are allowed to easily and quickly take control of a plane!

   Airplanes are becoming far too complex to fly. Pilots are no longer needed, but rather computer scientists from MIT. I see it all the time in many products. Always seeking to go one unnecessary step further, when often old and simpler is far better. Split second decisions are….

2…………> College Exams Cheats: Chinese Nationals

Federal authorities arrested five defendants linked to a scheme that helped Chinese nationals obtain student visas by hiring individuals who used fake Chinese passports to take an English proficiency test for the foreign students.

This is following a 26-count indictment returned by a federal grand jury charging the defendants with conspiring to use false passports, using false passports, and aggravated identity theft as part of the scheme to impersonate Chinese nationals who were required to take the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) to obtain a student visa.

The defendants are identified as follows:

Liu Cai, 23, of Woodland Hills, who allegedly facilitated the scheme, took at least five TOEFL exams himself and is residing in the United States on a student visa;

Quang Cao, 24, of San Francisco, who allegedly took at least four TOEFL exams with false identification, and who was arrested today in Stockton, California;

3…………>Drugs For Terror: Dutch Money Launderer

A Dutch narcotics trafficker and money launderer was returned to his home country March 11 by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) deportation officers, following an international investigation which led to a conviction and expulsion on multiple charges tied to an drug trafficking scheme of Jeroen Van Den Elshout, 39, to Amsterdam, and into the custody of Dutch law enforcement authorities

According to reports, in 2015, Elshout was arrested in Turnhout, Belgium, by Belgian law enforcement authorities and alleged to have been involved in a scheme with Netherlands based drug traffickers and the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (“the FARC”), a foreign terrorist organization, to smuggle large quantities of cocaine from South America to the Netherlands.

In March 2017, Elshout was extradited to the US following his indictment in US District Court-Southern District of New York (SDNY) on drug trafficking, narco-terrorism, and providing material support to a terrorist organization charges.

4…………>US College Exams Cheaters: Famous Americans

Test administrators took bribes to allow clients to cheat, including correcting wrong test answers, and in some cases, the faces of children were “Photoshopped” onto images of athletes to exaggerate athletic credentials, with prosecutors now naming 33 parents and 13 coaches so far, but more could be charged.

The largest college admissions fraud scam unearthed in US history was run out of a small college preparation company in Newport Beach, California, that relied on bribes, phony test takers and even doctored photos depicting non-athletic applicants as elite competitors to land college slots for the offspring of rich parents, prosecutors said.

Federal authorities have arrested dozens of people over a $US25 million scheme to help wealthy Americans, including Desperate Housewives star Felicity Huffman and Full House actress Lori Loughlin, cheat their children’s way into elite universities, such as Yale and Stanford.
