🚨 An Example of H-1B Visa Program Used for Human Trafficking 🚨 In 2001, Berkeley landlord Lakireddy Bali Reddy pleaded guilty to federal charges after using the H-1B visa system, claiming he was hiring for skilled roles like computer programmers, but he used it to traffic Indian nationals. Victims, often young women and girls from impoverished families, entered the U.S. with fraudulent identities and forged Indian passports. Reddy and his accomplices arranged falsified documents, including one instance where a man entered on a fraudulent visa with his sister posing as his wife and two minors as their daughters. Once here, many were forced into domestic servitude, cleaning Reddy’s properties, and sexual exploitation. Though this case dates back over two decades, it remains relevant amid ongoing concerns about H-1B fraud, including wage undercutting and misuse. unodc.org/cld/case-law-doc/t…

Another Berkeley professor told the author: “In my second-year engineering class, a student asked me to explain why 1/2 1/3 = 5/6…. The lecture had to stop while I explained fractions.”

La secuencia de natación sincronizada de Footlight Parade (1933), coreografiada por Busby Berkeley, sigue siendo uno de los números musicales más hipnóticos jamás filmados. Casi un siglo después, sus patrones geométricos y su juego de cámaras conservan una fascinación magnética.

The Berkeley of today also has a shrinking English and French department and no medievalist in their French department and barely one in their English department. The lack of investment in departments and declining enrollment destroyed rigor.

How Much Can We Boost IQ and Scholastic Achievement? By ARTHUR R . JENSEN University of California, Berkeley Originally published in 1969. Journal: Harvard Educational Review Part 1. "The "average children" concept is essentially the belief that all children, except for a rare few born with severe neurological defects, are basically very much alike in their mental development and capabilities, and that their apparent differences in these characteristics as manifested in school are due to rather superficial differences in children’s upbringing at home, their preschool and out-of-school experiences, motivations and interests, and the educational influences o f their family background. All children are viewed as basically more or less homogeneous, but are seen to differ in school performance because when they are out o f school they learn or fail to learn certain things that may either help them or hinder them in their school work." arthurjensen.net/wp-content/…

Day 2 at Manifest 2026 in Berkeley We spent another day having conversations on post AGI with researchers, founders, economists and some of the most interesting independent thinkers on the internet. It’s insane how many converged on abundance of intelligence and how that shapes human agency. Our belief remains the same. Maximize individual agency post AGI.

Together with UC Berkeley we are announcing the laser phase plate - a breakthrough in atomic resolution imaging. This is the brightest continuous wave laser in the world, 100 million times the intensity of the surface of the sun. Phase contrast plays an important role in microscopy, but it was thought close to impossible for electron microscopy, where it would require interfering with an electron beam. Holger Mueller and Robert Glaeser proposed exactly this using a standing wave laser. It has taken over 15 years to make this a reality. Biohub partnered with UC Berkeley and Mueller to support this work and to engineer and build the technology. Contrast has been the critical barrier to achieving atomic resolution imaging of the cell. In cryo-electron tomography, a cellular imaging technology that uses electron microscopy, the low contrast makes it impossible to resolve anything but the largest proteins within their cellular context. The laser phase plate removes that barrier. With advances in AI this breakthrough in contrast will start to open up a new frontier in structural biology, that will allow us to see the molecular machines of the cell, and how they assemble into far more complex and dynamic systems, and understand how they work.

Una calle en Berkeley Heights, en Nueva Jersey, ya lleva de manera ceremonial el nombre de Leo Messi Way. Con Sabor Argentino

Honoree Mary Fleming (4-14-46 - 10-5-23) is the true Mary. Kevin Berkeley Powers (7-21-84 - 7-15-05) is the true Jesus I’m Satan. And I ain’t going nowhere until they are both safely returned.

At first I thought this was a fan strip, but no, it's being run as Nancy official. 100% agreeing with Berkeley on this one.

Berkeley math professor: “Today, the more successful a public high school is at preparing its students, the lower its graduates' chances of getting into top UC campuses like Berkeley and San Diego.” Berkeley admitted 45% of applicants from a high school where nearly 94% of “students failed to meet the state standards in mathematics.” It admitted less than 14% of applicants from a school where “nearly 100 percent of its students in AP Calculus BC pass the national exam with a perfect score of 5.”

"Berkeley math professor: “Today, the more successful a public high school is at preparing its students, the lower its graduates' chances of getting into top UC campuses like Berkeley and San Diego.” Schools vary in their student quality far more than in their efficiency.
