Change from Visa Exempt to Non-O
That's correct, in theory, a representative can attend on your behalf, but they would of course require your passport. Same as, a representative can submit your 90 day report in person, or even submit an extension application in the event the applicant is handicapped or has disabilities. That said, if you're travelling and staying in different Provinces, then you should be carrying your passport. I don't think there is one answer fits all scenarios in this case as there as so many variables. Provided you return by the under consideration period date given, then you can't be on overstay, but if you couldn't return until a later date then technically you would be on overstay. I always apply 30-45 days before my extension expires. My IO always date the under consideration period 30 days from the expiry date of my current extension. They always call when the new extension application is approved, which is usually somewhere between the date my previous extension expired and the 30 day under consideration period, although it was once approved before my current extension had expired. If you were planning to travel locally during the under consideration period then my advice would be to notify your IO of those dates, and provided you return by the end of the 30 day under consideration period it shouldn't be an issue. -

Crackdown on Foreign Massage Workers Competing with Thai Nationals at Mall in Lat Phrao
In Thailand, yes. But how would Thais react if every other country around the world decided that only locals could work in the massage industry? That was my point. -

15 Year Old Stabs Rescue Volunteer in Broad Daylight, Blames Influence of Cannabis
Can you expand on this a little? From a quick internet search, it seems that "the Prussian model of education" was popular and has influenced modern education systems all over the world. Was there a specific period that it was like this? I always though the "Asian model", if there is such a thing, was far more based on Asian, or possibly communist, beginnings. -

U.S. Senators Introduce Legislation to Counter UN Actions Against Israel
I see. The US are still riding Israel's d..k! It's beyond me how they can turn a blind eye at what Israel is doing to Gaza. Israel is not a victim anymore. They've become the oppressor and they're not one hair better and equally as much to blame for what's going on!- 1

Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson - Hardly A Spectacle
The Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson boxing match left us a lot to unpack, but not in the way anyone hoped. While Jake Paul technically won by decision as we know, the fight was far from the spectacle either fighter, or the audience, had been expecting. It was clear when Tyson walked in the ring from the first moment that he wasn’t at 100%. Reports now confirm he was dealing with a bad knee, so he was basically fighting with only one good leg, though this wasn’t public knowledge beforehand. Still, most people assumed Tyson’s legendary experience and power would outweigh his age and condition when watching him go into the first round. That turned out to be a mistake though. Tyson landed a few solid hits, but Jake Paul absorbed them without going down. This immediately raised an uncomfortable question: Does Tyson still really have the power that everyone thought he had and what once defined his career? On the other hand, Jake Paul didn’t exactly shine either. He didn’t hit hard or dominate Tyson in a way that would cement him as a serious contender in the boxing world. Instead, it was a fight where Jake had to hold back as Tyson visibly struggled. Some spectators even claim Jake could’ve knocked Tyson out in the later rounds but chose not to, out of pity or respect for Tyson’s condition. For Jake, this was supposed to be a career-defining moment, a chance to prove he could hang with the best fighter of all time. But the fight didn’t deliver on that promise. It wasn’t competitive, there were no memorable highlights, and it left fans questioning the purpose of the whole event. Instead of solidifying himself as a world-class boxer, Jake walks away with little more than a technical win over an aging, injured Tyson. As for Tyson, it’s hard not to feel for him. He gave it his best shot, but it simply wasn’t enough. Getting beaten by Jake Paul, who is widely considered a mediocre fighter at best, has to sting. Still, Tyson’s family might be counting the silver lining: he made $20 million and avoided serious injury. In the end, the fight felt like a lose-lose situation. Jake’s ambitions to prove himself fell flat, and Tyson didn’t get the chance to perform at the level fans hoped for. For the audience, it was a disappointment, a fight with no real stakes, no real excitement, and no satisfying conclusion. All either of them got out of it was a pocket full of money, which may be good enough for both of them, but no fame or admiration was captured on either side. What are your thoughts? Just a lot of hype and a big waste of time all around or do you think it actually gave us something more?
