Maryanne Wong is originally from Malaysia and is fluent in both English and Cantonese. Her Auckland City apartment career began in a role selling new apartments off the plans. Taking quickly to the industry she saw the potential and growth of this relatively new market in Auckland and became a City Sales Apartment Broker. Maryanne possesses vast market knowledge and expertise in working with hotel leases, management leases, leasehold apartments and buildings with remedial issues.
"I had the pleasure working with Maryanne as a buyer in a complicated purchase under a tight time frame. The things that made a good impression on me were her profound knowledge of the property or in case when there was information missing, her willingness and ability to provide it quickly. I always received straight answers from her, and most importantly the truth. This gave me confidence and by the end of the process I was comfortable that I have made an informed decision purchasing the property. This was an excellent experience thanks to Maryanne."
"I would like to say that Maryanne Wong is the best agent that I have come across so far. Her hard work and tenacity to get the sale through for me in a leasehold leaky building is extremely difficult and I acknowledged that. She also has done more and beyond for me dealing with difficult tenant and ensuring that I get the preparations for the sale through effectively. I highly recommend Maryanne Wong as a professional sales agent. I have gone through many agents in the past with different companies. She is lovely to deal with. She went out of the way to get the sale effective."
"Many thanks to you all for your consideration. As you know, all my experiences with City Sales as agents and managers have always been highly satisfactory, so I would have no hesitation in recommending you."
"Great thanks Maryanne. I appreciate all of your dedicated effort to complete this sale."
"Dear Maryanne, thank you for all your assistance. I am very happy and pleased with the way the transaction was handled in a most efficient and expeditious manner by You and City sales. Being a non-resident, it was important that we have the right agent and agency representing me. It was a pleasure dealing with you and City sales."
"I wished to make sure that you were aware of the exemplary service that I received from Maryanne Wong whilst purchasing a property. Maryanne was extremely helpful, supportive, sensitive to our requirements and really did go the extra mile for us."
"Maryanne took the stress out of buying our first home. She was insightful, honest, and always willing to go the extra mile for us. She listened to our needs and helped us find our dream house. Thanks Maryanne!"
"David, Elizabeth and I would like to thank you and Maryanne for the effort you have put into marketing our apartment on Symonds St. Your regular emails keeping us posted on the current market pricing for inner city apartments gave us a good indication of where things were going. Your efforts into arranging viewings has been outstanding considering the difficulty in timings especially with the Body Corporate stipulations. This input has resulted in a very good outcome for us and I would highly recommend you, Maryanne and City Sales to any prospective vendors."
"Hi Maryanne, the final sale settlement has been completed today. The whole process has been smooth sailing without any issue. Thanks for the help on the sale."
"Dealing with City Sales, in particular, being served by a Ms Maryanne Wong, was a very pleasant and professional encounter, from beginning to the completion of sales of my apartment at Quadrant, Auckland, in May 2018. It was my very first experience with City Sales and I would not hesitate to recommend the services of Maryanne for any real estate transaction."
"Your Property Management team have been looking after my client's units above for some time, and your Maryanne recently (after a lot of hard work) sold it for my client's unit. Please pass on my thanks to your teams for their efforts and the assistance they provided, particularly to me. It cannot have always been easy for them. They did a great job."
"Maryanne, thank you for the good service. We have a few other properties in NZ and we will come to you when we are ready to sell them."
"Dear Maryanne, I would just like to send my thanks for your great service and dedication towards the recent sale of the apartment. You have been a pleasure to work with and your prompt communication made the process run smoothly. I would be more than happy to recommend you for future sales and purchases. Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!"
"I will like to say thanks to Maryanne Wong who I met about three years ago, I bought an apartment in Hobson Street through her. I found her to be efficient, honest and her service to be professional. When I recently wanted to invest in another apartment, I looked to Maryanne again, and found myself once again pleased with her service and negotiation skills to get the deal done. Her sales service is consistently wonderful and I would gladly recommend Maryanne to my friends and family."
"I wish to extend my greatest gratitude to Maryanne Wong for her tireless assistance with selling my home at Flat Bush. As everyone knows, City Sales only deals with Apartment. This was probably one of the first home units they ever sold in Flat Bush.
She has kept me up to date throughout the process and explained clearly all the requirements and steps needed to get the house sold on Auction.
At the same time she also communicated with the existing Tenants and the Property manager constantly about Purchasers' intention after settlement. The house was sold during the first auction on site at the price expected. Maryanne handled everything from marketing to settlement day, to ensure the whole process was "stress-free" for me.
I found Maryanne to be honest, sincere, hard-working, articulate and very professional. After living in NZ for more than 20 years, have many experiences in buying and selling, I found I have most satisfaction with the service Maryanne offered. I wish I had known her earlier. Thank you Maryanne!!"
"I really appreciate the efficient and trouble free professional service you have provided. You are a pleasure to deal with."
"I have bought several investment properties over the years through Maryanne. During that time she has been extremely hardworking, ethical, articulate and has co-ordinated well with valuers, lawyers, property managers and building managers. I am in the mature age bracket and have had experience buying property both here and in Australia. Maryanne has stood out for me in her ability to let me ask the questions, not to pressure and keep working until she has a property to meet my current requirements. I have no hesitation in recommending her as an agent who will be ethical, work hard, not pressure and hang in until you're happy."
"I would like to commend Maryanne Wong for her assistance with selling my unit in the Heritage hotel in Auckland city. She has kept me up to date throughout the process and explained all the requirements and steps needed to get the unit sold. Her estimation of the price I would get for the unit was spot on and in a very short space of time she had multiple offers for me to consider. Now that the offer has been signed she continues to keep me up to date via email and phone as each step in the whole process takes place. I have no reservations about recommending Maryanne to anyone considering selling a property."
"I had the pleasure of dealing with Maryanne during the purchase of an apartment in the City. I found her very helpful and accommodating during what turned out to be protracted negotiations and settlement. There were a number of times I emailed her with questions and she always replied within a couple of hours. She was available on the telephone at all times and acted as an effective intermediary between myself, the vendor and the Hotel building the apartment was located in. I have no hesitation in recommending her for any apartment purchase you may be involved in."
"Many thanks Maryanne. I found your work very efficient. I have told some of my friends about you."

Marisabel Rodriguez Messan
ORISE Research Fellow, U.S. Food and Drug Administration
Marisabel Rodriguez Mesan was born in Mexico City and grew up in Reynosa, a city in the Northeast of Mexico bordering Texas. From an early age, she enjoyed mathematics for its fun, dynamic, and creative feeling. Besides mathematics, she also enjoyed drawing, painting, and crafting. After completing her high school education in Reynosa, she moved to Edinburg, Texas, to pursue her undergraduate education at The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley (UTRGV). Since she has always been fascinated by the arts and design, Marisabel decided to pursue a graphic design degree. However, she realized that her real passion was mathematics because it allowed her to use creative and artistic skills, which she found fulfilling. Therefore, she changed her major and earned her Bachelor of Science degree in Mathematics from UTRGV in 2011. Marisabel knew she wanted to pursue a postgraduate degree; thus, she obtained a Master of Science in Applied Mathematics in 2013 from UTRGV. While in the master's program, she was encouraged by Dr. Maria Cristiana Villalobos, a Professor at UTRGV, to attend The Mathematical and Theoretical Biology Institute (MTBI) at Arizona State University (ASU), a two-month intensive summer program recognized and honored by the White House with the 2011 Presidential Award for Excellence in Science, Mathematics and Engineering Mentoring (PAESMEM). While at MTBI, she was exposed to a wider range of mathematical applications and had no doubt that she wanted to pursue a doctorate. Hence, she applied to the Mathematics Department at ASU, where she was accepted with full tuition support and a teaching assistantship.
The path as a Ph.D. student was not easy for Marisabel at the beginning; however, she quickly realized that she needed to believe more in her capabilities, and a support group from other fellow students was the key to success. She completed her Ph.D. in Applied Mathematics under the direction of Dr. Yun Kang, a mathematics Professor at ASU. Marisabel's Ph.D. dissertation focused on the study of social insects' interactions, specifically how their complex division of labor contributes to the successful organization and efficiency of their colony by using mathematical models based on dynamical system theory and ecological and evolutionary dynamics theory. After earning her Ph.D. in 2018 from ASU, she took a one-year visiting lecturer position in the Department of Mathematics at Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire. At Dartmouth, Marisabel had the amazing opportunity to lead a classroom, interact with students, and mentor and was a role model representing women and minorities in STEM. Then in 2019, she joined the Data Science Initiative Center at Brown University in Rhode Island as part of a postdoctoral position from the Simon A. Levin Mathematical, Computational, and Modeling Sciences Center at ASU that she took in July 2019. Nonetheless, due to her husband, also a mathematician, relocating to Maryland, she quickly explored other opportunities in Maryland, including those in the government. In December 2019, Marisabel joined the Analytics and Benefit-Risk Assessment (ABRA) team under the Office of Biostatistics and Epidemiology in the Center of Biologics Evaluation and Research at the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as an ORISE (Oak Ridge Institute for Science and Education) Research Fellow. At the FDA, she has been working on various projects related to the study and understanding of immunogenicity in cancer immunotherapies. One of her recent works uses dynamical systems theory and statistical methods to develop a mechanistic mathematical model to better understand the complex interactions between the human immune response and novel cancer immunotherapies, e.g., personalized cancer vaccines. The work of this research has been accepted for publication in PLOS Computational Biology.
Marisabel has kept in touch with some of her students while at Dartmouth to provide advice and support in their educational paths. Although at the moment she is not part of an official mentoring group/organization, she would love to become part of one and contribute by mentoring minority students and recent graduates.
Some advice Marisabel would give to an undergraduate student in any STEM major wanting to work in academia, industry, or government is that this is the right time to look at the arsenal of skills they have gathered and to make sure their course work reflects an interdisciplinary training. "Make sure you are exposed to and have some knowledge in some programming languages, statistical methods, and a solid foundation in mathematics. Also, start building your professional network, attend conferences, and present your research so that you gain confidence and learn from others. One last thing would be that whenever you are at the stage of applying/looking for a job, do not be afraid of applying to any job and do not feel defeated for not getting a certain job. If one door did not open, another one will."
"Hispanic Heritage Month is a time for us Latinx and Hispanics to make noise! This month, we celebrate and recognize those who have come before us and have served as role models and have shown us that all is possible. It is also a time to highlight and celebrate those who are making small and big contributions in science, arts, and in our communities. Hispanic Heritage Month is the time to show the world how proud we are of our beautiful and diverse cultures and to display the richness of this country through our contributions."


In his Jan. 30 letter to the editor, Kim McGahey attacked new Summit County Commissioner Elisabeth Lawrence, who is a perfectly lovely person with a good nature and a serious mind. She has served the citizens of Summit County ably on town council and through her work with the Summit Foundation. McGahey throws out the standard Republican tropes of calling her a "socialist" (think about our "socialist" police and fire departments, or our "socialist" roads, or our "socialist" public schools) and her potential for supporting what McGahey considers sky-is-falling policies (think of the debate over short-term rentals and how much you would like the party house of revolving frat brothers next door, or of eliminating single-use plastic bags that end up in landfills and across our landscape). Then he argues that Lawrence is an example of the need for term limits, apparently not understanding the irony that, um, Lawrence has moved to a different position at a different level of government. I have no doubt that McGahey would have written a similar unwarranted attack about any of the candidates, all of whom are capable, well-intentioned people. McGahey's attitude is indicative of why so many centrists and moderates in Summit County and throughout Colorado have rejected the Republican Party outright.
I have three kids in Summit schools. I will not take them to local ski areas any longer. The situation on green runs at our local ski areas has become truly dangerous.
Resorts may want to have their yellow jackets and patrol crack down on skiers and riders that disregard slow zones. The real danger our kids face from out of control skiers and riders will keep customers from returning, affecting resort revenue and possible life-long customers negatively.
It's a shame that we, and other families in Summit, have to drive 45-50 minutes south to feel safe on a ski hill.

"For I think that God has exhibited us apostles as last of all, like men sentenced to death, because we have become a spectacle to the world, to angels, and to men" (v9). After urging the Corinthians to regard him and Apollos as simply fellow-workers in the kingdom, Paul warned them not to "pronounce judgment" on anyone's work or life in the short-term (v5). The apostles themselves, following Christ, were mocked, mistreated, and struggling financially, yet this was no reflection on the worth of their ministry.
God calls us to see one another as fellow servants of the King. Money and status on earth can't measure our value; we wait for "God's commendation" (v5).

Music Therapy: Tuning Up Your Mental Health with Prescribed Playlists
Anxious? Depressed? It might be time to switch up your playlist. We spoke to the pros about how music therapy can help with mental health.
By Madelyn Chung
Carcia Campbell graduated from university with a journalism degree in 2002, but after facing a lot of rejection while trying to find work in her field, she became clinically depressed. For eight months, the Toronto-based blogger and musician sought help from doctors, therapists and family members—but nothing seemed to work. It wasn't until a friend "forced" her to go to a Duran Duran concert that her real healing began.
The moment the band's hit song "Rio" came on, something in Campbell shifted. While everyone else danced, she cried. But she wasn't sad. Instead, she felt a sense of peace because she used to listen to that song while sitting in the back seat of her mom's Oldsmobile. "It took me back to my childhood and made me feel good—it made me feel safe," she recalls. "Duran Duran's concert probably saved my life."
After the Duran Duran concert, Campbell went into a "Coldplay stage" where she listened to the band's X&Y and Parachutes albums on repeat. "It was kind of like the vibrations of the music literally just came into my body and filled up all the empty spaces, which is what I think music does," she says, adding that she hadn't "sung a note" while she was depressed but began to sing again following the concert. "[Singing to myself] was a reminder that there was a life inside of me and I needed to find a purpose rather than feel sad all the time."
"[Singing to myself] was a reminder that there was a life inside of me and I needed to find a purpose rather than feel sad all the time."
Campbell credits music as well as psychotherapy with helping her to move on with her life. And now, through HerCastleGirls.com, the blog Campbell co-founded with her sister, Chantel, she is able to continue incorporating music into her life on a regular basis. "I could never imagine my life without singing or creating, talking about or listening to music."
The powerful effect music has had on Campbell's life is a relatable narrative. Music serves as a form of therapy for many or, as Toronto-based creative director Talya Macedo says, "ends up being a soundtrack to our lives." Just think of the times you have used music to help change your mood or state of mind. You turn on Kanye West's "Power" while going for a run, play Adele's "Someone Like You" to get through a heartbreak or put on Mozart's "Piano Concerto No. 23" to help you focus while you're working.
Dreyuh Safo, a Toronto-based music marketing consultant, creates mood-based playlists on the side because she sees music as a form of escapism. "If you're working on something, or even if you're cleaning, you're kind of always in your head…so music helps you organize your thoughts," she says. "For me, I love Daniel Caesar's 'Freudian.' When it starts going into the choir chorus…. I will sometimes fast-forward to there just to feel it in my chest because I'm like, 'Oh, I need this release.'"
While creating our own playlists can be therapeutic, professionals have been using music to treat emotional and physical issues since the mid-1900s, when psychotherapists used it in their practices. In the '40s, the first music therapy college training program was created in the United States, and by the mid-'50s, Canadian music therapists began to offer their unique services to treat emotional trauma.
While creating our own playlists can be therapeutic, professionals have been using music to treat emotional and physical issues since the mid-1900s…
"A lot of people intrinsically understand that music can be used to impact their mood," says Elizabeth Mitchell, a registered psychotherapist and accredited music therapist who works at Wilfrid Laurier University in Waterloo, Ont., and Homewood Health Centre in Guelph, Ont. "Music therapy hones in on that and is simply a more intentional process, conducted under the direction of a therapist."
A session in music therapy can involve a therapist and a client creating a playlist that is designed for that person's specific issues. "It may be designed to impact a particular mood, like depression or anxiety," says Mitchell, adding that she listens to a calming playlist when going to the dentist. "Or maybe it's for a specific purpose, like to help someone when they're tempted to use a substance or are struggling to fall asleep at night."
While we create our own playlists based on taste, music therapists work with their clients to curate lists based on a concept known as the iso-principle. This technique involves the therapist matching music to the current mood and physical state of the client and then presenting new music to incrementally or gradually encourage the desired change. For example, if a client is feeling sad, the playlist may begin with Coldplay's "Fix You" to express how the client is feeling and finish with Florence + The Machine's "Dog Days Are Over" to encourage motivation and a feeling of hope.
"If someone's feeling depressed and they'd like to feel happier or more calm and grounded, sometimes it's more helpful to start the playlist with a song that validates their sadness," says Mitchell. "Then you work with the patient to incrementally change their mood by choosing songs that are a bit less sad, a little happier or calmer."
A session in music therapy can involve a therapist and a client creating a playlist that is designed for that person's specific issues.
But music therapy isn't just about listening to prescribed music, explains Mitchell, adding that the experience is much more interactive. Sessions can involve a therapist and client making improvisational music together on instruments such as a piano, a guitar or a single drum or writing songs. But it goes far beyond a person banging on a drum to express their anger.
Andrea Lamont, a registered psychotherapist and certified music therapist who works at Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitation Hospital in Toronto, says she uses a variety of instruments, so clients can find a sound that resonates with them, and lets them express their feelings through that instrument. "I then meet and match their sound so it feels like they're being heard and being recognized," she says. "Creating music in the moment helps clients feel their emotions and stretches them to intensify or deepen the experience. We always safely bring them back to a place where we're able to resolve any deeper or bigger emotions before the end of the session."
For Mitchell, music therapy is about two people listening to each other, responding and expressing how they're feeling. "The improvised music often has a lot of parallels to a conversation—it just doesn't have to contain words," she explains.
Lamont agrees. "I think there are a lot of timeless qualities to certain music that can really pull people together and make them feel like they're connected and they're part of something. We need that, socially."
How music can help with your mental health:
"Music is a universal language that can connect people of all ages, cultures, backgrounds, genders, abilities and life issues," says Sheila Lee, a certified music therapist based in Vancouver. "When words are unavailable, music is there as a powerful form of self-expression and communication." She adds that studies have shown that engaging with music we enjoy can help increase our levels of oxytocin and dopamine (the "happy" hormones), release endorphins and decrease cortisol (the stress hormone).
"The more actively involved we are with music, the more benefits we can gain from it," she says. On that note, here are seven tips from Lee on how to use music to reduce stress:
Dedicate a special time and space for music. Find a place where you can be free from distractions—and silence your mobile devices for the time being.
Pause, take some deep breaths and ask yourself "What am I aware of at the moment?"
Choose a song or create some music to match your present state.
Reflect on how the music affected you.
Set an intention of how you want to feel or what you wish for yourself and others.
Choose a song or create some music (sing, listen to or play it) that matches your intention.
Keep whatever you wish to retain from the music and let it take away whatever you wish to release.

– Create a plan for high school. Take rigorous courses and make sure you know how you are going to meet all of your graduation requirements. Challenge yourself. Set goals (both short-term and long-term) so that you can obtain the GPA you need to get accepted to colleges you are interested in.
– Consider questions like "What type of career do I want?" or "What skills do I want to use in my profession?" and think about what steps you need to reach those goals. Try to take elective courses that will help you get there.
– Get involved. Applying to college isn't all about your GPA and Test Scores. It is important to explore your interests and learn how to balance your time. It's also crucial that you have an outlet, especially as you get stressed with school. Colleges want to see that you have a complete resume.
– Do well on the PSAT. This test will help you to build skills to take the SAT in 11th and 12th Your scores may even make you eligible for scholarships!
– Attend College Trips and College Fairs when possible. The 9th Grade will have its own College Trip and members of the College Leadership and Awareness Program (CLP) club will also be invited to attend the annual College Fair trip.
– Explore Summer Opportunities. Don't be lazy all summer! Definitely relax, but make sure you're doing something productive as well. Look for a job, internship, college summer program, or volunteer experience.
– Focus on your grades. Remember: your grades do matter, even in the 9th Seek out tutoring resources if you find yourself struggling and make sure to reach out to your teachers and counselors if you need help.
– Keep your RaiseMe account up to date so that you earn scholarships through things you're doing anyways in your years of high school.
– Use CollegeBoard Big Futures to search for colleges and use College Greenlight to help research them even further. Finally, add colleges to your Make Me A Freshman account to stay up to date on your deadlines in your senior year.
– Meet with your counselor if possible to talk through your plan after high school, including colleges you are interested in and your career plans.
– Stay up to date on your 4-year-plan (Graduation Agreement). If you fail a course that is required for graduation, try to make it up in summer school so you don't fall behind.
– Take the PSAT again. This test will help you get ready for the SATs and your scores may make you eligible for scholarships.
– Work building positive relationships with teachers – they'll eventually have to write your letters of recommendation!
– Attend College Trips and College Fairs when possible. The 10th Grade will have its own College Trip and members of the College Leadership and Awareness Program (CLP) club will also be invited to attend the annual College Fair trip.
– Get more involved in your extracurricular activities. Show that you are committed and that you are willing to taking on leadership roles.
– Focus on your grades. Colleges want to see that you have improved since 9th grade or at least stayed on course.
– Explore summer opportunities. Colleges want to see that you are productive in your summer months. Get that job or internship, or start taking Dual Enrollment classes if you're eligible.
– Prepare for 11th Take rigorous courses such as Honors or AP courses if you can. Make sure to also complete any required summer assignments before the year begins.
– Take the PSAT for the last time. Make sure to take it seriously as this is the most important year. Your scores during THIS test may especially make you eligible for BIG scholarship money, such as qualifying for the National Merit Scholarship.
– Really take time to research colleges. Look at websites, talk to your friends, teachers, and counselors, and go visit schools when you can.
– Get involved, take on leadership positions, and continue networking whenever you can.
– Financial Aid and Scholarships are there for you to apply to. Apply for scholarships on your College Greenlight account and considering getting a Scholarships book from Amazon (for only $20 or so!) which will have thousands of scholarships. It is recommended that students apply to one scholarship per week from their 11th to 12th grade year in order to earn enough money to close any gaps left by what colleges offer you.
– Consider taking Dual Enrollment courses to buff up your GPA and college resume. Don't take too many – your in-school courses are still important.
– Attend the various college representative visits and put a name to a face by personally introducing yourself to admissions counselors who will review your applications.
– Go to 11th Grade Information Nights and attend the 11th Grade College Trip.
– Sign up to take the SAT and ACT. You'll also want to determine whether you will take any SAT Subject Tests. Some colleges require this. You'll also want to make sure you have time to take SAT/ACT tests at least twice before you send off your applications. March and/or May of your Junior Year is when you should the SAT for the first time, if not earlier. Then you can take it again in the summer, and one last time in October of your senior year if necessary.
– Preliminary Letters of Recommendation Requests: In April/May, ask 3-4 teachers if they would be willing to write a letter of recommendation for your college applications. If they say YES, you'll follow up with them in the Fall.
– Put more time into your College List Draft. Do some research and come up with 10-15 colleges that you would be interested in applying to. Meet with your counselor if you need help. Look at the average SAT/ACT scores and the average GPAs that school takes. You'll want to apply to schools that are close to what your scores/GPA are.
– Take AP Exams if you're taking AP courses. This is your chance to get college credit for the courses you're taking in high school.
– Refine your college list. Visit the school that you had on your college list. Go to college fairs. Speak with admissions professionals. Narrow down your list to a maximum of 10 colleges. If you can't visit a school, do virtual tours on YouTube and use College Greenlight to make sure the school is a good fit.
– Draft your resume. Make sure you begin making a resume of your awards and achievements, activities, and work/volunteer experiences so far. Many colleges request this as part of their application.
– Set up your Application Accounts. Wouldn't it be easier to do ONE application for many schools rather than individual applications on many different websites? Set up accounts on CommonApp, Common Black App, and Coalition. Look into these three websites and see which ones have the majority of your colleges and apply that way. It's WAY easier. This also means writing ONE essay for many schools instead of ten.
– Draft Your Essays: Write first drafts of all of the essays required for the schools you are applying to (including the CommonApp essay). When you get to school in the fall, you'll be able to attend one or more workshops at CMIT where we will help you refine these, but you'll want to have drafts ready.
– Take Dual Enrollment courses. This is your last chance to take a course that will go onto your High School Transcript.
– Recommendation Requests: As soon as you get back to school, go back to your Teachers and ask them again to be your recommendation writers. If they say YES, add them to Naviance as a recommender for ALL schools.
– Senior Questionnaire and Secondary School Report (SendEdu): Complete your Senior Questionnaire and give a hardy copy to your counselor by the 3rd Friday of your Senior Year if you are applying for November 1st Also complete the requested portion of the SendEdu report and email it to your counselor by the 3rd Friday of 12th Grade. If you plan to go to college, you need to meet this deadline so your counselor can write your letter of recommendation. If you get these things done after that deadline, your letter will NOT be ready for November 1st deadlines. These items are linked in the "Applying for College" page under the Counselor Tab of the CMIT Academy North Website.
– If you are going to take the SAT one last time, register in September and take the SAT one last time in October.
– If any of your schools require documents to be mailed, complete and turn in your transcript request form to your counselor. Students must provide their own envelopes for each school that requires mail. Note: the symbols below indicate the different college application types on Naviance. The two that mention "MAIL" are the ones that require a transcript request form. Any schools that have these symbols require mail.
– Send your SAT and ACT scores to all of your colleges. You must send them directly from the SAT/ACT websites. Your counselor does not do this.
– Do your FAFSA. On October 1st, the FAFSA opens. Students should make their FSA ID prior to this date so that they can do their FAFSA in October. The earlier students do their FAFSA, the better their chances are for getting better financial aid packages at many schools.
– MANY colleges have a November 1st Early Action Deadline (including most colleges in Maryland, DC, and Virginia), so you really need to focus on getting your applications completed in October. Ensure that your letters of recommendation were uploaded. Make sure that your CommonApp account is linked to your Naviance account. Check that your documents were sent to your schools by October 31st.
– Many colleges require your counselor to send transcripts again once 1st Quarter Grades are in. Complete Transcript Request Forms for all schools that require this and send them off.
– Continue working on applications and make sure to send them off to all of your schools by their earliest possible deadline.
– Check your application status for schools you already submitted applications to. Ensure that all of your materials were sent and received.
– Don't get senioritis…at least not so much that your grades suffer. Colleges are still looking at your grades. If you do not do well in your senior year, colleges may rescind your acceptance.
– Check your application status for schools you haven't heard from yet. Ensure that all of your materials were sent and received.
– Review Financial Aid award letters. If you would like help comparing these different award packages, work with your counselor during Seminar Series sessions to determine what the best deal is.
– May 1 is National Decision Day. Make sure to select your college and send in your deposit by this date in order to be eligible to enroll. You can only submit a deposit to one college.
– Take AP exams if you are taking AP classes and consider taking Dual Enrollment courses. This is your last chance to earn college credit before college.


Always book direct. Step, or rather navigate, away from Expedia, Hotels.com, Booking.com and their ilk.
While third-party booking sites can be a useful starting point for researching what hotels are available in certain destinations and at what price points, that's probably the extent to which they should be used. Reserving directly with a hotel is the safest and best bet for reasons ranging from receiving special treatment to direct recourse should something go wrong.
Accountability: When the reservation relationship is between the guest and the hotel only, it's clean and easy because there are only two parties involved: the customer and the business. When a third party (booking site) gets involved is when things can get messy. For example, sometimes reservations are not actually processed and the site and the hotel can pass the blame back and forth. This can potentially leave you with the wrong room or without a room at all, and there's little hope for recourse.
If you want to see some horror stories, take a gander at ConsumerAffairs.com, where Hotels.com has 1/5 stars from more than 1,300 reviews.
Price matching: The big and probably only draw with booking through sites like Kayak and Travelocity is that they seem to turn up the lowest prices, even if it's just by a few dollars. But what's not yet common (enough) knowledge is that most hotels — especially chain hotels — will scramble to get your direct booking and match any price out there. All you have to do is present the cheaper price you found elsewhere for the same stay.
Marriott has a Look No Further Best Rate Guarantee policy that promises that it will not only match the lowest hotel rate found, but also give an extra 25% discount.
Room choice: Hotels only set aside a certain block of rooms for third-party platforms. Obviously, hotels keep the best rooms and most variety for themselves to sell directly. This can make a big difference when it's a property where a standard room can vary greatly in size, which is especially common in old properties constructed ages ago, when rooms (and, well, people too) were smaller. A little online research can often unearth what type of room might really be linked to booking through a third-party site, like this petite room in Boston from Priceline.
More flexibility: When you book directly, hotels will often be more willing and able to help should you need to change your dates or even cancel, because they're not bound by some third-party deal. Reserving a hotel room through a third-party site can essentially create and lock in a contract for a stay, which can limit wiggle room for the guest and hotel staff.
This also means that if you book directly, the hotel can do more to compensate a guest — like waive the cost of an entire stay — should something go wrong or not be up to snuff.
Better service, plus perks: Hotel staff might not come out and say it, but they're inclined to treat guests better when those guests are giving them more money. Direct bookings are more profitable to them than ones through third-party sites that take a cut, and staff generally can see right in the computer system how a room was booked. They're definitely checking the computer when a guest drops a hint about an upgrade.
Also, someone who reserves a room on a site like Expedia is a prime pick for "walking," which is when a guest is sent to another property because of overbooking (a common practice) according to Jacob Tomsky, author of Heads in Beds: A Reckless Memoir of Hotels, Hustles and So-Called Hospitality.
Hotels also have the power and inventory to go above-and-beyond a standard hotel booking to create special packages or throw in perks like free breakfast. For example, Starwood is currently running an offer for its Mexico and Panama resorts that include free nights, food and beverage credits and upgrades. Third-party platforms only work with the basics, which for hotels is just rooms.
Points: The only way to earn hotel loyalty points for a stay and climb the hospitality stairway to status heaven is to book directly with the property. Some platforms do run their own independent rewards programs, but those points are only good on their specific sites.


Naoya Kumagai describes the unique physicochemical and catalytic properties dictated by the DATB ring system.
Amidation is one of the most used organic transformations for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, functional polymers, and agrochemicals. However, there remains much scope for improvement of state-of-the-art amidation methodology. Although reagent-driven amidation has been well advanced to reliably access a myriad of amide-functionalized molecules, this methodology contains an inherent draw-back, namely the co-production of unwanted reagent-derived waste. The development of a catalytic alternative is an obvious solution but has witnessed slow progress and suffers from severely limited substrate generality and insufficient catalytic activity. An amidation catalyst powered by broad and general scope, as well as featuring high catalytic activity, would have the potential to be widely adopted in academia and industry.
Recently, a Japanese team led by Professor Masakatsu Shibasaki and Dr. Naoya Kumagai at the Institute of Microbial Chemistry (Tokyo, Japan) discovered a non-metallic catalyst characterized by a six-membered B3NO2 heterocyclic core coined DATB (1,3-dioxa-5-aza-2,4,6-triborinane), which proved to be a highly effective catalyst for dehydrative amidations.

Suicide Bombers Go On Strike2 min read
Humor, Islam, Spam
Muslim suicide bombers in Britain are set to begin a three-day strike on Monday in a dispute over the number of virgins they are entitled to in the afterlife. Emergency talks with Al Qaeda have so far failed to produce an agreement.
The unrest began last Tuesday when Al Qaeda announced that the number of virgins a suicide bomber would receive after his death will be cut by 25% this February, from 72 to only 60. The rationale for the cut was the increase in recent years of the number of suicide bombings and a subsequent shortage of virgins in the afterlife.
The suicide bomber's union, the British Organization of Occupational Martyrs (BOOM) responded with a statement that this was unacceptable to its members and immediately balloted for strike action. General Secretary Abdullah Amir told the press, "Our members are literally working themselves to death in the cause of Jihad. We don't ask for much in return, and to be treated like this is like a kick in the teeth."
Speaking from his shed in Tipton in the West Midlands, in which he currently resides, Al Qaeda chief executive Osama bin Laden explained, "We sympathize with our workers concerns, but Al Qaeda is simply not in a position to meet their demands. They are simply not accepting the realities of modern-day Jihad in a competitive marketplace.
"Thanks to Western depravity there is now a chronic shortage of virgins in the afterlife. It's a straight choice between reducing expenditure and laying people off. "I don't like cutting wages but I'd hate to have to tell 3,000 of my staff that they won't be able to blow themselves up."
Spokespersons for the Union in the north east of England, Ireland, Wales and the entire Australian continent & of course United States and Canada stated that the strike would not affect their operations, as "there are no virgins in their areas anyway."
Apparently the drop in the number of suicide bombings has been put down to the emergence of Scottish singing star Susan Boyle – now that Muslims know what an actual virgin looks like they are not so keen on going to paradise.

When I first started attending networking events, I was terrified to approach large groups of strangers. I watched some of my peers dive into these situations with ease, and wondered how on earth they made it look so natural. Meanwhile, I found myself sitting awkwardly alone, clutching a cocktail, and desperately brainstorming conversation topics.
Fortunately, I've improved my networking skills over the years, and am much less likely now to stick out like a sore thumb at events. I've learned that the most important part of successful networking is to have a good icebreaker to start a conversation and a smooth closing statement for when you're ready to move on.
A simple introduction can transition into a solid conversation if you're willing to share a bit about yourself right off the bat.
Try: Hi, I'm Jessica and I work in the PR department at Company X. My role has been super challenging lately because of all the new regulations around paid placements in media spots. Have you been dealing with that, too?
A big event can be a lot more fun (and a lot less intimidating) if you can find a pal to stick by your side. Asking someone to explore different areas with you is a nice way to talk with less pressure.
Try: Hi, have you been to the silent auction table yet? I'm heading over there now and would love some company.
If you're interested in a new opportunity or area of work, networking is a great way to get more information. Don't be afraid to ask someone candid questions after giving some background on why you're interested.
Try: Hi, I see that you work at Company X. I've always been interested in their work, and recently saw a position open up that I'm thinking about applying to. Do you have any advice for me? What's it like working there?
Large conferences and events can be pretty overwhelming. If you're a first-time attendee, approaching someone for assistance can be an easy way to start a conversation. Look for someone who seems familiar with the scene and ask for an insider tip.
Try: Hi, I've never been to this event before. You look like a regular—any tips you could give me on what to expect? What are the best sessions here?
When in doubt, ask a question to prompt a conversation. Stick with light, generic topics, and offer them with a smile.
Try: How many people do you think are here? Can you believe we have to wear these awful nametags? Were you here last year when the keynote speaker was late?
The icebreakers above can be the launching pad you need to start networking and feel more comfortable in an unfamiliar situation. But unless you're lucky enough to stumble into your soul mate at a trade show, you'll eventually need a natural way to exit a conversation. A good rule of thumb is to talk for five to 10 minutes—and then move on.
Sometimes, even when you've met someone interesting, the time comes when you're ready to peruse the rest of the event. This is a great time to hand off one of those business cards burning a hole in your pocket.
Try: Steve, it was really a pleasure speaking with you. I'm going to take a look at some of the other exhibits here, but if I don't run into you later, I hope to see you at another event soon.
When someone you've met seems like a valuable contact, make sure you exchange information before you part. You can even suggest a future meeting to speak one-on-one.
Try: Margaret, I have to head out right now, but I really enjoyed learning more about your work. Could I get your contact info to schedule a time for us to finish our conversation?
If you think that you'll run into a new contact at another upcoming event, why not plan to attend together? This helps you build a relationship with a good connection and can help you feel more comfortable at that next event.
Try: I had a great time talking with you—are you planning to go to the expo next month? It seems like something that would be relevant to both of us, so maybe we could go together.
A new contact can be a valuable resource, but that doesn't mean you need a shadow all night. When it's time to part ways, be honest that you'd like to follow up at a later date, and then say a polite goodbye.
Try: Mike, I'm in a tricky stage in my career and wonder if I could pick your brain for advice over lunch some time soon. I need to say hello to a few others here, but can we plan to connect next week?
Sometimes, you end up talking to someone who really isn't that pleasant or interesting. I once got trapped in an endless conversation about uses for old dryer sheets (I wish I was kidding). When you're struggling for more conversation and need a reprieve, be kind, but assertive.
Try: Laura, it's been great getting to know you, but I need to say hello to a few more folks around here. I hope you have a great evening.
Networking isn't always smooth sailing, and most of us have at least a few awkward experiences to share. But learning how to start and close conversations is one of the best ways to master this important skill. With any luck, you'll make some connections, you'll find some event buddies, and you'll gain some helpful professional resources.

Indiana's coaching staff didn't merely celebrate Independence Day on Sunday. The Hoosiers scored another commitment for their 2022 class, taking a verbal pledge from Florida corner James Monds III.
The three-star prospect chose IU over offers from Wisconsin, Nebraska, Michigan, Michigan State, Penn State, Maryland, Tennessee, Arkansas, Arizona and Cincinnati, among others. According to the 247 Sports Composite rankings, Monds is the No. 67 corner in the country and the No. 98 overall player from his talent-rich home state.
As a junior last season, Monds was targeted 10 times and broke up nine passes, per TC Palm. He tallied one interception and also worked as a return man on punts and kickoffs. Monds received his IU offer on April 30, 2020, before finally getting the chance to visit Bloomington last month. He reportedly followed his Indiana trip with visits to Nebraska and Wisconsin before making his decision.
Monds has good football genes. His father, James, played at Toledo and Bethune-Cookman, his cousin, Mario, played at Cincinnati and was later drafted by the Bengals, and his uncle, Wonder, played at Nebraska and was drafted by the Pittsburgh Steelers.
He's also good at the other game of football, scoring 21 goals and adding seven assists during his sophomore year on the pitch. For his efforts, TC Palm included Monds on its all-area soccer team.
With Monds in the fold, Indiana now has nine players committed for 2022. Per 247 Sports, the average recruit rating for the class is .8843 — the highest in school history.

Patsy Dunbar, Evergreen
Funeral services for Patsy Brown Dunbar will be Tuesday, December 1, 2020 at 11:00 a.m. at the Bayou Rouge Baptist Church in Evergreen, LA with Rev. David Trimbur officiating. Burial will be in the Bayou Rouge Cemetery under the direction of Melancon Funeral Home, Bunkie.
The family has requested that visitation be observed at the Bayou Rouge Baptist Church on Tuesday, December 1, 2020 from 9:00 a.m. - 10:45 a.m.
Patsy Lou Dunbar departed this broken world in the afternoon of Nov.19, 2020 after 84 years. She was born in Enterprise, Louisiana on September 14, 1936 to Harold Wesley Brown and Lillie Daisy Egloff and was the second of four siblings. Patsy was raised primarily in Bunkie, La. and shared many a lively story of her dear friends and memories growing up in a small town, close knit rural community.
After graduating from Bunkie High School in 1955, Patsy attended a year of nursing school in New Orleans before her engagement and marriage to Samuel Dorsey Dunbar of Evergreen, La. on March 30th 1956. Patsy and Sam made their home in Pasadena, Texas for the next 62 years where they raised their two daughters, Jodie Lynne and Pamela Denise. Patsy was not content staying home after the girls were school age and was employed for the next two decades with local businesses in various capacities including data entry, accounts receivable and office manager. She explored different religious affiliations while participating in mission and outreach opportunities and was a member of the First Presbyterian Church of Pasadena at the time of her passing.
Patsy will be well remembered as "in charge" of the meal planning and preparation of monthly lunches provided to Alzheimer's care givers. After her retirement, Patsy was also actively involved in a number of community volunteer organizations and was awarded Volunteer of the Year by the Pasadena Chamber of Commerce and received the Presidential Volunteer Service Award under George H. Bush -1993 and Bill Clinton-2000 for "giving hundreds of hours each year helping others through Council and Civic participation." Patsy was affectionately referred to as "Lovely" by her daughters and grandchildren and will be lovingly remembered for her fabulous cooking, generous heart and irreverent humor. She was a force of nature. In 2017, Patsy moved to Waco, Texas to be closer to her daughters where she was a resident of the Delaney at Lake Waco. Patsy is preceded in death by her husband, Samuel Dorsey Dunbar; her parents, Harold Wesley Brown and Lillie Egloff Brown, brother Harold Wayne Brown and son-in law Timothy Wayne Brownlee.
Patsy is survived by her siblings, Terry Wade Brown of Seabrook, Texas and Deborah Brown Lemoine of Evergreen, La; daughters, Jodie Dunbar-Ray of Waco, Texas and Pamela Denise Brownlee of Willow City Texas; grandchildren and their spouses, Samuel Terry Ray and Lauren Osborne Ray of San Marcos, California, Jacob Wayne Brownlee and Lisa Renee Brownlee of Austin Texas, and Carly Nicole Ray and fiancé Travis Lee McCracken of Dallas, Texas, along with great-grand daughters Rowan Michelle Ray, Harper Jean Brownlee and Hayden Denise Brownlee in addition to her son-in law, Russell Terry Ray and nieces and nephews.
Honored to serve as Pallbearers are her grandsons, Samuel Ray, Jacob Brownlee; brother, Terry Brown, Dr. John Lemoine, Kyle Marchieve, and Kirk Brown.
The family wishes to extend their invitation to please join them at the home of Deborah and Dr. John Lemoine at 249 Lone Pine Lane in Evergreen following the service for lunch and visitation.

Q: Confused with the basics of Hash Table in C++ here is a small code I have written about hash tables.
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int hashval(int n){
    return n%5;
}

int main(){
    int hashtable[4],num, value;
    for (int i=0 ; i<=4; i++){
        hashtable[i]=0;
    }
    for (int i=0; i <=4; i++){
        cout << "Enter the number you wanna enter : ";
        cin>> num;
        value=hashval(num);
        while (hashtable[value]!=0){
            value=(value+1)%5;
        }
        hashtable[value]=num;
    }
     **// line A //** cout << hashtable[0] << "  " << hashtable[1] << "  " << hashtable[2] << "  " <<hashtable[3]<< "  " << hashtable[4] << "  " <<endl;

    for (int j=0; j<=4; j=j+1){
    **// line B //**    cout << hashtable[j] << " ";
    }

}

When I enter the five numbers as "13,15,18,29,30", line A displays the output "15  29  30  13  18". However, line B does not display the last element i.e. the output shown is "15 29 30 13 4". Where did the 4 come from?  I am so muddled regarding why the last element is always not printed, no matter what elements are entered, and an element that does not exist is printed instead. Don't lines A and B function in the same way? What is wrong with my code? Any help will be appreciated. Thank you!

A: Your problem is that int hashtable[4] allocates an array that can store four values, with indices from 0...3. However, then you try to store five values in the array.
Usually C++ is poorly suited to the compile and see method of learning. It is very common to compile and test code in C++, find that the code "works", when the code is relying on undefined behaviour. In this case however, we can empirically see that [4] only allocates enough space for four elements. The following code divides an size of an array by the size of one of the elements, calculating the maximum number of elements the array can store.
#include <iostream>
int main(){
  int a[4];
  std::cout << (sizeof(a)/sizeof(a[0]));
  return 0;
}

The code above outputs 4, showing that int a[4] allocated enough space for 4 elements. Storing five elements in an array containing 4 elements results in undefined behaviour.
While we can end the story there and just say undefined behaviour can do anything, it is sometimes useful to understand (but not rely on) the most common side effects of overrunning an array.  Typically what happens is that you access unallocated memory or memory allocated to another variable. Note that between the 1st and 2nd times you print hashtable[4] you allocate the variable j and that j happens to be 4 when hashtable[4] is accessed the second time. It is good bet that since you didn't allocate the memory where hashtable[4] resides, the compiler thought it was unused and put j there. Then when you printed hashtable[4] you were actually printing j.
To emphasis that undefined behaviour means you shouldn't rely on compile and test, that is not what happened on my compiler (g++). Your code worked fine and it didn't even give any valgrind or -Wall warnings.
Other that the array being too small your code looks correct to me, so if you just change int hashtable[4] to int hashtable[5] your code should work correctly on every C++ compiler.

ST. CLOUD -- The former Wendy's building and property on Division Street and West St. Germain in St. Cloud has been sold. The closing on the property was on Monday.

Owner Stephen Linn says the existing building will be torn down and a new building will be built. He says their intent is to begin in the spring with a mid-summer opening.
All Tumble Fresh Coin Laundry locations are open from 5:00 a.m. until 1:00 a.m.
Linn Investment Properties LLC also owns several Holiday Convenience Stores, BP Express stations, and Paramount Auto Service stores.
The Wendy's restaurant at that location closed in March of 2017.

Someone told me there was a way to jump off my 02 LS from under the hood, I don't know but maybe someone on here does.
It started the other day, my ignition switch stuck on start and I couldn't turn it off so I pulled a fuse and killed the engine but it was still "on" so I disconnected the battery and shut the trunk. Well when I went back to it to work on it I couldn't get back in the trunk because the trunk lock was all seized up. I've used WD40 and Liquid Wrench and still can't get it to work. so my question, is there a way to energize the system so I can use the trunk button or the key fob to open it?
Yes, there is. One of those 10A battery chargers would be prefect for this. Just give it a few hours to charge the battery up enough.
The easy connection is to wire it to a cord that plugs into the lighter or power port. Otherwise, you can get under the car and connect the positive to the "B" terminal on the starter, and the negative to bare metal of the engine or body. If you can't get under to do that, then jack up the passenger side in the front and take the tire off. Pull back the fender liner at the back and there is a terminal there that you can connect the positive to.
There is also a way to release one of the back seats without doing visible damage, but I'd try the above way first.
I make a point of using my key in the driver's door and in the trunk every once in a while just to make sure the mechanical locks are still working.
Thanks for your reply Joe. I had to disconnect the battery because at the time the ignition switch was stuck at the "on" position so I had to disconnect the battery until I could get it home. Will the charger plugged into the lighter power the system enough to use the trunk button or fob? I've tried to get the back seats down but they're locked upright.
You have to power up at least the FEM, the DDM, and the REM to be able to open the trunk. There's no way to get to just wires for the trunk solenoid. They only go to the REM, and don't leave the trunk.
Hey Joe, well I tried powering up thru the power port with no luck. I guess I'll have to try the other way you spoke of.
I thought some one wrote in this forum how to release the latch for the rear folding back using a long screwdriver inserted behind the the folding back. Then one can open the trunk by pulling on the emergency release strap inside the trunk. When I locked the trunk with the battery disconnected I didn't know about accessing the latch with the screwdriver, so, I removed the rear cushion, removed the bolt that holds the bottom of the right side folding back, pulled it away so I could fit a 2x4 short piece and with a rod that I bent into a hook at one end, I reached the emergency trunk release strap and done - trunk opened.
I got in the trunk like that once before when the battery run down over the winter. We don't get a lot of snow but when we do I just park it till it's gone. A few years back we had snow for a while and for some reason the battery run down but one of the backseats wasn't latched so it was easy to get in there, not so easy now.
YouTube Lincoln LS trunk release. There's a couple helpful videos. I had this prob once with a parts LS. Car had bad batt wouldn't keep charge. So I git to power cable in passenger side. You'll see video.
I also put jumper cables on car and just touched power cable by fuse box at same time had someone push trunk release button.
Well I got it opened, thanks for all the help y'all.
I first tried this but it didn't work. I felt like this was the most logical but nope, just didn't work and I don't know why.
Then I tried this one, or umm, the wife did this one cause she's a lot skinnier than I am and it took all of 7 seconds. She even crawled in there and pulled the escape cord. I think I'll keep her.
Awesome! Glad you got it open.
Why would you cut into the battery cable when you can get to a bare battery terminal just by pulling back the carpet at the front passenger footwell?
I didn't realize I could access it there and I still can't open the passenger front door, it's still locked and I'm unable to get it unlocked. I've already buggered up the door lock lever trying to force it with no luck. When activating the door locks with the fob I can feel the lock activating but it won't unlock. I just haven't yet figured out what I'm gonna do about it Joe.
Oh, I see. Yes, it is a major pain when the latch assemblies break.
There's a lil rod that goes from lock on inside handle to lock on door. Can you take off handle on inside and access that? Maybe push on rod to disengage lock.
I've done that but I honestly don't remember all I did.
There's a rod that goes to the outside handle. It's a cable that goes to the inside handle.
I've tried pulling on the inside lock cable. I've tried accessing it from behind the door panel, no luck. I even tried to force the panel off knowing I'd destroy it but that door panel is tougher than I am and I couldn't break it off! I can put my hand on the door and activate the locks with the switch and I feel the "thump" on the door and hear it working but I can't get it to unlock.
If the trim panel is already damaged beyond repair, use a Dremel and cut it open/off.
because it still gets posted every single time and people think its simple, despite this meaning they already have access to the interior. If you have access to the interior, you have access under the hood and access to several better options in both, some without even requiring any disassembly.
Well the panel isn't damaged, yet, but I'm painfully aware I'll have to get Medieval on it to get it off. I have two other cars I can drive so I'm just gonna rethink the best way to do this with the least amount of damage.

European Basic Income: A post-COVID recovery strategy
by Guest Contributor | Mar 23, 2021 | Opinion
A social policy analyst from Slovenia, suggested that the European Commission examine the idea of a European Universal Basic Income. The UBI would be paid directly from the ECB's "helicopter money." The suggestion was made within the debate of the European Social Pillar Action Plan. The proposal stems from the observed shortcomings of the current social security systems related to the COVID-19 crisis, the efforts of the United States, India and many other countries made in this direction and the research done by OECD, IMF, ILO, UNICEF, European and Slovenian experts. This proposal is not the same as the European Citizens' Initiative "Start Unconditional Basic Incomes (UBI) throughout the EU", for which signatures were collected starting on 25 September 2020. However, this proposal does take a similar direction as the European Citizens' Initiative. One day Europeans will receive a local, national, European and global basic income to safeguard and foster democracy and ecological-economic development.

Indiana Lawmakers Considering Bill To Reform State's Workers' Compensation Program
Terre Haute Workers Compensation Claim
by Staff | May 8th, 2013
In an effort to cut costs associated with Indiana Workers' Compensation Benefits, lawmakers are urging Governor Mike Pence to sign into law a bill that was recently approved by the General Assembly.
House Bill 1320 would establish a fee schedule for healthcare costs incurred by those who are injured on the job that would help wrangle in the amount that is spent on medical supplies and devices. According to a story published by Workers Compensation, the bill would hold costs at roughly 200 percent of Medicare. Furthermore, repackaged drugs would not be sold for more than the average wholesale price of the item, which is established by the original manufacturer. Medical facilities wouldn't be allowed to charge more than the cost of a device that is implanted, plus 25 percent, under the new law.
Such regulations have been deemed a success in states that currently have similar laws.
A decision from the governor as to whether or not he will sign the bill into law is expected to be made in the next several weeks.
Fleschner, Stark, Tanoos & Newlin and their team of Terre Haute Personal Injury Lawyers acknowledge how complex the laws surrounding receiving Workers' Compensation benefits can be. That's why the firm urges anyone who is considering applying for benefits or who has had their claim denied in the past discuss their legal rights and options with an attorney as soon as possible.
Indiana Announces Initiative To Make Healthcare Industry Safer
by Staff | February 27th, 2013
Data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics show that healthcare workers make up a large portion of employees who sustain work-related accidents. In fact, the healthcare industry has the second highest rating in the state when it comes to workplace accidents and injuries resulting in claims for Indiana Workers' Compensation. According to the Indiana Department of Labor, those numbers were a major driving force behind the implementation of a new safety initiative being launched in the industry statewide.
The initiative is aimed at educating workers about some of the most common causes of accidents that are recorded in the healthcare industry. These include:
Accidental Needle Sticks
Exposure to Blood-Borne Pathogens
The first in a series of educational events and conferences was held at Union Hospital in Terre Haute, Indiana, on February 5. During the conference, officials announced several plans to educate workers about the dangerous employees in the healthcare industry face and how prioritizing workplace safety will create a better work environment and cut costs.
The initiative will also put healthcare facilities and their staff in touch with available resources, such as articles, flyers, and public service announcements, to make the workplace safer.
The Terre Haute Personal Injury Attorneys at the law firm of Fleschner, Stark, Tanoos & Newlin are hopeful the initiative will be successful in reducing the number of workplace accidents reported in the state of Indiana.
Court Of Appeals Rules On Indiana Workers' Compensation Case
by Staff | November 7th, 2012
A ruling from the Indiana Court of Appeals found that an injured worker's claim should not be immediately dismissed because a claim for the same incident was settled in another state.
Risk & Insurance reported that a Wisconsin man was hired by an insurance company to investigate fraud in Indiana. While traveling in Indiana on business, the man was involved in a car accident that left him with serious injuries. He then filed both an Indiana Workers' Compensation claim as well as a claim in Wisconsin because the company he worked for used separate insurance providers in both states. The claim in Wisconsin was settled for $100,000, which prompted the insurance company in Indiana to throw out his claim.
The Court of Appeals ruled though that the claim could not be barred just because a settlement was reached in Wisconsin rather than the company offering a unilateral, voluntary payment to the injured employee. The court maintained the Indiana insurer was involved in the Wisconsin settlement decision as well and could have included a clause preventing the second claim from being made.
The Indiana Disability Lawyers with Fleschner, Stark, Tanoos & Newlin have a firm understanding of the complexities of the process of filing an workers' compensation claim and are here to answer any questions you may have regarding a claim you are preparing to file or that has been denied in the past.

This is the second part of the chat I had with this friendly and easy-going former SIA stewardess. In this video she spoke of the things cabin crew usually do during their stay overseas, the standard of crew hotel accommodation provided by SIA, the loneliness etc. etc.
BT, today's walk in interview turnout at suntec is quite small. by 2pm closing time, only about 400 came (compared to a thousand plus at normal walk-in). i see they try to take in alot of ppl, even those cui ones also can pass.
Partly because many slept late last night waiting for the general election results. I may be wrong. May also be due to the haze.
I was there at the interview and 1 of my group girls was booted out but honestly I can't find a reason why.. She is slim, tall, has flawless skin and hair, makeup was on point and she's pretty too!! Guess you will never know how they choose ppl..
No other reason than to employ FT crew because Sinkies are viewed as "strawberries" who would later complained and whine about their job. Just go and read that exstewardess Hilary's blog.
What you mentioned are external points. She most probably has an attitude problem, cant think maturely, cant hold a decent conversation, observed to be constantly on her handphone while waiting for her turn, no eye contact, lack enthusiam etc. Doesn't mean that tall, slim, pretty will get her the job. SIA is not looking for prostitutes now so please get the idea right.
I was booted out at management round yesterday. I was surprised it was done on first day itself instead on e second day at the Sia training centre.
I just wanna know if wearing Smart Casual is acceptable.. Like blue jeans, nice top with blazer, hair pined up, covered toe shoes and proper makeup, would this be acceptable for SIA CC interview?? Was planning to wear this for the next one as I missed out yestd's interview since I was away on a short vaca..
