Theme: International trade of talent.

Subject Article: "Rep. Tim Ryan pressures Brazil to extradite accused killer by defunding U.S. visas for its citizens."

Other Links: 1. "Did Congress kill the Twinkie? The tariff tale behind the Hostess demise."
2. "Studying the world: A huge scholarship programme could boost economic growth."

Postscript: For the entire continent of Africa, remittances from expatriates are greater than the sum of foreign aid.
