The College of Arts and Sciences is pleased to announce an expanded Faculty Development Program (FDP) to support the development and promotion of tenure-track, tenured and professional track faculty.
This year, the FDP program will have four distinct programming tracks:  Orientation, Junior Faculty, Mid-Career Faculty and Faculty of Color.   Although the individual sessions are designed for a target audience, college faculty are welcome to attend any session that might be of interest.
Participants who complete at least five FDP sessions throughout the year will be given priority for a small number of fellowships to be awarded by the College for the NCFDD Faculty Success Program (FSP).  Associate professors will also be given priority for either a fellowship to the NCFDD Post-tenure Pathfinders Program or a "service sabbatical" (i.e., one academic year with no service commitments) plus a $5000 research fund.   More details on these incentives will be announced later in the year.
ORIENTATION TRACK (NEW)
The Orientation program track targets faculty who are new to the university or would like a refresher on the range of college resources available to support faculty.
Introduction to the College of Arts and Sciences

JUNIOR FACULTY TRACK
Now in its third year, the Junior Faculty program track will introduce participants to the resources of the National Center for Faculty Development and Diversity (NCFDD), as well as other practical tips and information needed to be successful in their research, teaching, and service endeavors. Participants will cover a range of topics focused on strategic planning, productivity, work-life balance, and building healthy and supportive relationships.
While all junior faculty in the College are welcome to participate, CAS tenure-track faculty in their second year or after are strongly encouraged to attend.
All sessions will be held in person in either Gambrell 429 or Petigru 321.
Spring 2023 Junior Faculty Sessions
Checking in on Your Track to Tenure & Promotion Feb 24, 11a-1230pm, 429 Gambrell
The T&P process can feel like a daunting, obscure specter in the distance. You know you're on a "track" to get there, but what are the specific steps you can be taking? How can you break this process down? In this session, we'll focus on what you can do now: read and understand your department/unit guidelines, approach Annual Reviews and Tenure Progress Review as practice for tenure review, and hone strategies for keeping organized record of your research, teaching, and service accomplishments. We'll hear from Joshua Tebbs, professor and chair of Statistics and former UCTP chair, and from Nina Levine, CAS Associate Dean for Arts, Humanities and Academic Initiatives, who will each be on hand to answer your questions. To the session, we recommend you bring access to and/or review in advance your unit's T&P guidelines.
Seeking and Writing Successful Grants, in Any DisciplineMarch 31, 11am-1230pm, 321 Petigru
Applying for grants is a baseline necessity for research in many A&S disciplines, and grant opportunities can support research and creative endeavors in virtually any field. This session focuses on the pragmatics of finding and successfully applying for grants, within and beyond the university. Participants will hear from an interdisciplinary panel – Holly Crocker, professor of English and director of the Humanities Collaborative; Alysia Bridgman, CAS Director of Grant Operations, andClaudia Benitez-Nelson, CAS Senior Associate Dean for College Initiatives and Interdisciplinary Programs – who will share tips for finding grant opportunities and for writing successful grants, along with CAS resources for helping you get the grant out the door. The session concludes with ample time for Q&A with the panelists.
Maintaining our Life, Work, and Self: Strategies for Work-Life BalanceApril 21, 11am-1230pm, 429 Gambrell
Does it feel like your life is a juggling act? It feels like you are constantly rushing around trying to keep all the balls in the air, and you cannot find any time for yourself. Many of us talk about wanting work-life balance, but we don't know how to implement the balance in our own life. Research shows that taking time for sleep and self-care has proven to reduce stress and increase productivity, yet we still don't do it. This workshop will talk about how to include some positive habits into your life. Dr. April Scott, the Associate Director of Mental Health Initiatives, will join us to talk about work life balance and resources for relaxation and stress reduction. In advance of this workshop and in the spirit of valuing balance and time, we encourage you to record all your activities for one workday (or more), in 15 minute increments. If you engage this invitation, bring your record(s) to the session for reflection and conversation.
Questions or Suggestions? Please contact Dr. Hannah Rule (ruleh@mailbox.sc.edu) or Dr. Sheryl Wiskur (wiskur@mailbox.sc.edu).

MID-CAREER FACULTY TRACK
To help associate professors prepare for promotion to full, the Mid-career Faculty program track will draw on the resources of the National Center for Faculty Development and Diversity (NCFDD) in order to provide practical advice and resources for post-tenure faculty who are planning the next phase of their careers.
Sessions will cover a range of topics, including productivity, work-life balance, strategic planning, networking, assessment of promotion criteria, and identifying good mentors. While all associate professors in the College are welcome to participate, post-tenure faculty who are beginning to work towards promotion to full are especially encouraged to attend.
All sessions will be held in person in Gambrell 429.
September 13, 2022: (12:00-1:00p.m.) Mid-Career Faculty Introductory Session
This session will be dedicated to building a relationship between the facilitators and the participants in order to find the best plan of action for future sessions. The facilitators will briefly review the topics that may be covered in the future and provide a needs assessment to discover what the participants level of interest may be for each promotion-related topic, such as finding meaning after tenure, navigating service mid-career, and planning your path to promotion. This session will take place in Gambrell, and lunch will be provided.
October 11, 2022: (12:00-1:00p.m.) Planning a Path to Promotion
In this session, we will consider different aspects of planning a path toward promotion. The role of timelines, mentorship, self-assessment, and tracking progress will be discussed.on.
November 15, 2022: (12:00-1:00p.m.) Setting Research Goals
In this session, we will consider how to set, achieve, and sustain individual research goals. The importance of balancing the need for research goals alongside teaching and service commitments will be addressed.
December 13, 2022: (12:00-1:00p.m.) Linking Accomplishments to your Unit Criteria
In this session, we will consider how to link professional accomplishments to one's Unit Criteria for Promotion to Full Professor. Effectively building a personal statement that communicates how one's record aligns with criteria will be discussed.
Questions/Suggestions?  Please contact Dr. Andrew Graciano (graciano@mailbox.sc.edu) or Dr. Amanda Fairchild (afairchi@mailbox.sc.edu).

Faculty of Color Network
The Faculty of Color Network provides an empowering space for CAS faculty – tenure-track and professional faculty – who belong to one or more under-represented ethnic and/or racial communities to build and maintain a fulfilling career in the academy. With the support of Dr. Mylene Culbreath, Vice Dean for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, faculty will work together to: (1) discuss issues and provide information vital to the personal well-being, professional develop.m.ent, and the retention of CAS Faculty of Color; (2) serve as a conduit for advocating the concerns and needs of Faculty of Color to the Dean's office and others; and (3) serve as a means to enact and reinforce the support systems of CAS Faculty of Color. This year, the Faculty of Color Network will be co-chaired by Dr. Qiana Whitted, Professor of English and African American Studies, and Dr. Todd Shaw, Associate Professor of Political Science and African American Studies.
If you want to join the CAS Faculty of Color Network, please contact Qiana Whitted (whittedq@mailbox.sc.edu) or Todd Shaw (shawtc@mailbox.sc.edu).

Heading out onto the hills for many hours or on a multi-day trip? With the MSR TrailShot, you can refill your water bottle or drink clean water, straight from streams, rivers and even ponds without the worry of catching nasty bugs.
Even in very hot weather, with only a trickle of water available in a dusty stream, the hose makes easy work of refilling your bottles.
The TrailShot can handle bacteria and Protozoa, deliver a flow rate of 1 litre per minute and will last for 2000 litres. A fantastic and potentially lifesaving tool for the outdoors.
Clean water all day—without the weight. That's the advantage the TrailShot Microfilter provides. Designed to hide in stash pockets and deploy quickly, this tiny water filter lets you drink directly from sources along the trail for instant hydration, and fill your vessels with clean water. Easy one-handed operation, so you can get back on the trail quickly and moving again.
At just 142 g (5 oz.), the TrailShot water filter is an essential piece of kit for those moving fast and light, conscious of their pack weight or in areas where clean water is an issue.

Q: Syntax to retrieve a column from a cell to use in a formula? I'm trying to map a column in a financial report with a table.
Right now my formula searches the "E:E" column. However instead of using "E:E" which is hardcoded I want to let users change the column by mapping it in a table. The red square marks the cell I want to retrieve the column from.

How can I make it so that instead of using "E:E" it retrieves the column to search for in the cell "TeamColumn"?

A: You are looking for the INDIRECT function.  This function parses a string and returns the reference to the cell(s) that string describes.  In this case, assuming the letter E is in cell A1, your formula would be
=COUNTIFS(INDIRECT("'Raw Data'!" & A1 & ":" & A1), "")

A lot of the recent buzz in the InfoSec community was about the IRONGATE malware. IRONGATE was recently discovered by FireEye while hunting for PyInstaller-crafted executables in VirusTotal.
PyInstaller is a program that converts Python scripts into stand-alone executables under Windows, Linux, and more. Due to the simplicity of Python development and the easy deployment of Python programs enabled by PyInstaller, malware authors are able to write sophisticated malware in no time.
There's a YARA signature created by Didier Stevens that can be used in either an automatic or a manual mode to detect PyInstaller files. This signature basically looks for a specific string which is unique to PyInstaller-crafted executables.
To deal with PyInstaller files, we can extract the original Python source code from any PyInstaller file and then analyze the code to get an understanding about its purpose, maliciousness, and full threat potential.
Unlike other executable binaries, for which we need to perform disassembly and review hard-to-read assembly code in order to fully analyze them, the process of analysis using PyInstaller is usually simple and fast. It fully exposes the entire Python code, making it easy to read.
Now, in the directory where you run pyinstxtractor, you should have the Python source code available to you. The only thing left is to rapidly read the code and analyze what it's doing in your system.
Remediation for PyInstaller files is not especially different from any other cyber threats; it really depends on the security systems deployed in your organization, and the code of the threat itself.


There's a lot of different things that women find to be attractive in men. You may find yourself trying to figure out what women find attractive, and that's not an easy thing to do. The reason why it's not so simple is because all women are different. When you start to think that they are all the same, you're going to lose out on the bigger picture. It's with that in mind that you will want to explore some general tips in regards to figuring out just what women find attractive. You'll find that the following things are going to help you gain the right elements, and perhaps get the woman of your dreams.
Ok, if there's a universal element for what women find attractive, you'll find that smelling good is a great thing. You're going to find few women that don't like a good smelling man. Now, in regards to the scent, that's another story. You will need to consider several options when you're thinking about cologne. You shouldn't dose yourself too much either, use a little bit here and there. Find a scent that works with your style and that gets you attention, but don't overdo it.
Don't wear undersized or oversized clothing. If you can, find a tailor and custom fit your clothing. This is a good thing. You may not think about what women find attractive in regards to clothing, but it's a good thing. Not all women pay attention to this, but when you're wearing clothing that are made for just you, they'll notice. Most men don't think about this, and that's why many don't end up getting hot girls. If you want hot women, wear clothing that not only fits, but that complements your body type. Again, a tailor can help you here.
One of the most attractive things today is standing out. If you're looking at learning what women find attractive, you need to look at those that stand out. The men that stand out today are the ones that are very polite. They aren't cursing, they are opening doors, they are treating women with respect and they are not controversial in any way. They are polite in all their dealings, and they are attractive to women. If you can move in this direction, you will see good things come your way in terms of dating, that's for sure.
You don't need to overthink all of this. You need to focus on things that you can do to ensure that you are different. If you are different than other men in the lives of women, they will no doubt follow along with whatever you would like to do, including date, and even start a relationship. You have to put yourself in their shoes sometimes, and think about what attracts them to men. You can't be the bad boy all the time, which is why the list above is not in reference to that notion. Instead, try to be the good guy, and focus on the things that work within the above list.
What Girls Want Men To Wear?
There are a lot of different things that you can point towards in regards to what attracts women to men. In fact, you may find that there are a lot of different opinions on this matter. If you want to learn what attracts women to men, and you're not sure, then the following will point you in the right direction. These options are going to not only highlight what works, but why they work as well. This will help you get more dates, get more attention, and figure out the better elements of dating, and attracting the right women to you.
The first thing that you should know about what attracts women to men, is that confidence goes a long way. There's no two ways about this. If you're a confident individual, you will find a lot more women attracted to you. Many men are anxious, nervous and don't know how to get women. Well, this is something that you can easily work on. You should not fear rejection, and you should stand up straight, look forward, and look people in the eye. You'll find that if you can pretend that you're confident, you'll gain a major leg up forward.
Women love smelling a good cologne, and you can definitely get them hot. There's a reason why there are so many cologne options available for men. Just like a woman that wears perfume will get attention, you can ensure that you are getting attention through this option. The scent that you have is going to speak volumes to a woman, especially if you're going to want to date someone long term. If you want to get the attention of more women, then you will definitely want to consider the scent that you have. There are few people that will disagree in regards to what attracts women to men, when it comes to cologne.
One of the great things about getting your life together is that women love it. If you're concerned with what attracts women to men, put your life in order. Get a nice apartment, get a car that runs well, have a stable job, and work on improving yourself without a woman. When a woman you date sees that your life is well put together, they are going to be absolutely attracted to you. This is something that you don't have to lean on anyone to get, you just have to work hard and put it together yourself.
Overall, the things that are mentioned above in regards to what attracts women to men, are simple. They are simple because women and men don't have to complicated things. If you focus on the simplicity of your dating world, you will be able to attract more women, and be confident in what you're doing. There's a goodness to all of this that you shouldn't forget. Test these options out and see what happens. Chances are, you're going to see something grand come over you overall. Just take your time and put them together.

Q: get Json values from a JsonArray inside a Json in Java using Map i need to access the values of a Json, that its inside an Array, that its inside of a Json, the structure of the Json file its like this:
{
    "Places": [
    {
        "id": 17,
        "city": "Chicago",
        "vehicle": "car"
    },
    {
        "id": 13,
        "city": "New York",
        "vehicle": "plane",
    }
    ]
}

i only need the values of "id", "city" and "vehicle"
im using the map function like this:
Gson gson = new Gson();
Map<String,String> userMap = gson.fromJson(contentoffile, Map.class);

        for (Object value : userMap.values()) {
            Map places= (Map) value;

            int id = (int) (places.get("id"));
            String city= (String) places.get("city");
            String vehicle= (String) places.get("vehicle");

but i got the next error
Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.ClassCastException: java.util.ArrayList cannot be cast to java.util.Map

how i can acces the data?
btw, i can use other libraries for this, not only Map function

A: The structure you have is a JSON object that contains a JSON array places, I am not really sure what you are trying to achieve by using a Map<String, String>, you need to either create a Place POJO and parse accordingly OR just access it directly as a JsonObject:
Place.java
public class Place
{
    private int id;
    private String city;
    private String vehicle;

    public Place(int id, String city, String vehicle)
    {
        this.id = id;
        this.city = city;
        this.vehicle = vehicle;
    }

    // Setters & getters
}

    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        Gson gson = new Gson();

        // Parse your file to a JsonObject
        JsonObject jsonObject = gson.fromJson(contentoffile, JsonObject.class);

        // Extract JsonArray (places) from JsonObject
        JsonArray jsonArray = jsonObject.get("Places").getAsJsonArray();

Option 1: Converting into List<Place>:
        // Convert JsonArray to a list of places
        Type type = new TypeToken<List<Place>>() {}.getType();
        List<Place> places = gson.fromJson(jsonArray, type);

        //iterate over places
        for (Place place : places)
        {
           int id = place.getId();
           //etc..
        }
    }

Option 2: Iterating directly over JsonArray:
        for (JsonElement jsonElement : jsonArray)
        {
            //This will represent a Place object
            JsonObject curr = jsonElement.getAsJsonObject();

            int id = curr.get("id").getAsInt();
            String city = curr.get("city").getAsString();
            String vehicle  = curr.get("vehicle").getAsString();
        }

Option 3: Create a wrapper class
public class PlaceWrapper
{
   private List<Place> places;

   //Const, setters, getters
}

public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        Gson gson = new Gson();

        // Deserialize json
        PlaceWrapper placeWrapper = gson.fromJson(contentoffile, PlaceWrapper.class);

        // iterate over places
        for (Place place : placeWrapper.getPlaces())
        {
            // do your thing
        }
   }

Q: Proving that the tangent line to the graph of $f$ at $(a, 1/a^2)$ intersects $f$ at one other point This comes from Spivak's Calculus (problem 2b from chapter 9).  Here, $f(x)=1/x^2$.
My approach was as follows:
I took $f'$ and wrote down the tangent line to $f$ at $(a, 1/a^2)$, namely $y_a=-2/a^3(x-a)+1/a^2$.  Reasoning that the intersections between $f$ and $y_a$ would correspond to the zeros of $f-y_a$, I proceeded to write down $f-y_a$.  However, when I rearranged $f-y_a=1/x^2+2x/a^3-3/a^2$ to $2x^3/a^3-3x^2/a^2+1$, I became very puzzled, since this turned out to be cubic--and cannot have only two zeros (and so, in particular, $y_a$ would not intersect the original graph in only two places, namely in $(a, 1/a)$ and some other point)--where I was expecting a quadratic.  Any ideas on where I went wrong?

A: Things are turning out as they should. There is a double root at $x=a$.  By the way, the third root can be found with minimal calculation, from either the known sum or the  known product of the roots.

Biden social policy bill revenue pegged at under $1.5 trillion
By David Morgan, Susan Cornwell
WASHINGTON (Reuters) -President Joe Biden's $1.75 trillion social-policy and climate-change legislation would raise less than $1.5 trillion in revenue, tax experts said on Thursday, but Democrats insisted the bill they aim to pass by Thanksgiving is fully paid for.
U.S. Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) is flanked by U.S. Senators' Patrick Leahy (D-VT) and Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) as he faces reporters following the Senate Democrats weekly policy lunch at the U.S. Capitol in Washington, U.S., November 2, 2021. REUTERS/Evelyn Hockstein
The official U.S. Joint Committee on Taxation issued a report scoring the "Build Back Better" legislation's revenue provisions at $1.48 trillion over the next decade, some $270 billion short of the top-line spending figure.
But House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Richard Neal, the chamber's top Democrat on tax policy, told reporters the difference would be made up by provisions intended to enhance the Internal Revenue Service's tax collection and to lower the cost of prescription drugs for the Medicare healthcare program for the elderly.
"The bill is paid for," Neal said. "The investment in IRS, that helps, and then the drug savings."
Neal spoke after a meeting of House Democrats, where committee chairmen briefed members on the legislation ahead of a potential floor vote that could come Thursday or Friday.
If passed by the House, the legislation would move on to the Senate, where the top Democrat said on Thursday that lawmakers would aim to enact it before the Nov. 25 Thanksgiving holiday.
If enacted, the legislation would raise $640 billion from tax increases on high-income individuals and $814 billion from corporate and international tax reforms from 2022 to 2031, the tax committee said.
"As the House prepares to move forward, the Senate continues to achieve progress in our goal of passing Build Back Better before Thanksgiving. That's our goal," Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said in floor speech.
House Democrats, who have spent weeks bickering over the legislation, are looking to step up work on the bill after a sobering defeat for their party in Virginia's gubernatorial election Tuesday.
Congress faces another pair of critical deadlines in less than a month: They set a Dec. 3 deadline to avoid a potentially economically devastating default on the federal government's debt, as well as to avert a politically embarrassing government shutdown.

Layoffs at IBM, Cognizant signal declining confidence in demand rebound
Anand J	28 May, 2020
During the last few weeks, as top executives at information technology (IT) firms outlined earnings financial for the March 2020 quarter, many of them emphasised on the rise in cloud adoption and demand for digitalisation solutions as businesses shifted work to employees' homes. However, the recent spate of layoffs at some of these firms belies some of that optimism in business growth.
In the past several days, Armonk headquartered IBM, Teaneck, New Jersey based Cognizant and San Jose, California headquartered Hewlett Packard Enterprises (HPE) have let go of several employees.
While Indian employees at these firms have been affected, a majority of the job cuts have happened in the US. It will not be long, however, before Indian IT services firms start to lay off people, several industry watchers said.
Up until now, layoffs in the Indian technology sector during this downturn have almost always been the preserve of the consumer internet sector. That could be about to change as the $150 bn IT services sector gets on the bandwagon.
Mohandas Pai, former board member and HR head of Infosys told TechCircle that if the demand situation worsens in the interim, Indian IT services firms are also likely to let go of employees, contrary to the companies' assurances.
During the March quarter results announcement, the country's largest software exporter Mumbai based TCS, which does not give out official earnings guidance, said that it was expecting a rebound in demand during the second half of the current financial year. Bengaluru headquartered Infosys CEO Salil Parekh said he expected digitalisation to blunt the Covid-19 impact on growth during FY 21.
"It is fair to say that companies who are doing layoffs are not expecting V-shaped recovery. Don't listen to what they say, but watch what they do. It shows the declining confidence of service providers in demand rebound, Pareekh Jain, founder of Pareekh Consulting, a Bengaluru based IT outsourcing advisory firm, said.
"As more client enterprises are assessing the impact, it is trickling down to service providers. They are conserving cash for future strategic initiatives like acquisitions," Jain added.
Incidentally, the initial confidence displayed by IT firm honchos was in sharp contrast to the views of most industry watchers, who expected the current financial year to be a washout.
In fact, technology research firm Gartner revised its projections for IT spends for the calendar year 2020 from a 3.4% growth to a decline of 8% to $3.4 trillion, indicating that the recession is far deeper than most anticipated at the beginning.
"Despite the experiences and track records these players carry, the context of a global pause
on all sectors is new and unseen to all in the game. Enterprise responses and reactions hence should also be expected to have a tinge of uncertainty and element of surprise. The layoffs should hence be seen in the larger financial context," Kamal Karanth, co-founder of IT staffing solutions firm Xpheno said.
Jain said that rather than letting employees stay on the bench and burn cash, companies are likely to let go of employees now and hire when demand returns.
For most Indian IT services firms' employee cost is somewhere between 50% and 60% according to the disclosure made in their annual reports. "It shows the confidence of the companies ability to capture demand and hire people as soon as demand rebounds," he added.
IT companies are also laying off workers to be able to manage a permanent imbalance in the working environment due to external changes. Several businesses are expected to get shuttered permanently or return to a capacity level well below the levels seen during pre-Covid period in sectors such as travel, hospitality, retail and consumer goods.
"The logic is they need to invest in the future, the period of lockdown in the Western economies is uncertain and they cannot spend all the cash in anticipation of earlier normality. They need to cut costs to meet reduced revenues and a market which is shut down," Pai added.
According to V Balakrishnan, former CFO of Infosys, most IT companies have been doing cost optimisation and have been successful in doing so over the last few years. If revenue growth goes negative or flat, then cutting employees' costs becomes inevitable as it is the only tangible leverage the companies have in further reducing cost structure, he said.
From the optimisation of business verticals to realigning overseas operations to diverting resources to newer verticals, the agenda behind layoffs is often multiple factors, Karanth said.
"Some enterprises might still approach it as an opportunity for excess load shedding (of the bottom 10%), which they believe can be easily brought back any time later. The Indian IT majors have a vast pool of such people," he added.
Covid-19 chokes the middle management
Over the past few years, IT companies have preferred hiring people with specific skills and have trimmed mid-level workforce. The pandemic is said to have given most companies an opportunity to further let go of middle managers with outdated skills. This was reportedly the case at Cognizant, which has most of its employees working in Chennai.
"We will continue with our 2020 'Fit For Growth Plan' to streamline the company's operating model and reduce costs to fund growth investments that align to our long-term growth strategy," the company had said during the quarterly results announcement.
The 'Fit For Growth Plan' is corporate speak for restructuring at the senior management levels.
Cognizant reportedly let go of 400 mid-level to senior level executives while also giving an option of voluntary separation packages for employees on the bench.
"The pyramid structure of employees was an asset during its high growth days. But, it is a huge liability when the growth rates are coming down. There is a huge fat built in the middle which needs to be downsized," said Balakrishnan, who currently runs venture capital fund Exfinity, which invests in enterprise startups.
Karanth disagrees. According to him, the annual separations and performance-based attrition are more of a pruning process for the overall health that companies do regularly and the top Indian IT firms would not use the current situation as an alibi to cut more jobs.
IBM had stated during the quarterly earnings call that they would continue to eliminate software and services that don't align with their top focus areas for growth of which cloud being the most important one, which had posted a 19% growth during the March quarter.
On Monday, according to media reports, IBM laid off thousands of employees in the US. While the Indian employees are also expected to be hit, IBM India did not offer any comments to TechCircle queries.
HPE has announced salary cuts for most employees apart from laying off staff, according to media reports in the US. Through these measures, the company is hoping to save around $1 billion.
A narrow bench
Another layer where layoffs could happen is the bench staff or employees who are not working on any live projects. Most IT companies have around 10% of their staff without projects.
Also, IT companies employ smaller firms as subcontractors to reduce cost when they bid for low-margin deals. These firms are also likely to see layoffs in the beginning.
"If the employee is not billable then layoffs directly impact the bottom line. In the scenario when top-line growth is very difficult bottom-line growth can help in valuation and stock prices. Most executives compensation is linked to revenue growth, profitability and stock performance. So when revenue growth is taking a hit, they might look for maintaining profitability and stock performance," Jain said.
While all major companies have announced that they will honour all offer letters, especially to freshers, a number running into tens of thousands, there is a likelihood of the joining dates being postponed by 9-12 months, Jain and Karanth said.
"Enhancing shareholder value is the main motto for any company's management. The IT companies are flush with cash and that gives them financial security. They can't ignore the other stakeholders like employees, customers, vendors, etc., You need to find a balance," Balakrishnan said.

ey guys, good 2 see you'r still going on!
Yeah, we're still here. Just got a little sidetracked. Thanks for sticking with us.


You said "write it down. Be clear. Be articulate. Define what you're on about." And, then you laughed and told me a story. A story that could only be told by acting the entire thing out, on your feet, in a crowded coffee shop, accidently bumping into someone holding a latte, who is giving you an annoyed look, who you politely apologize to while laughing loudly and openly and then simply carrying on with your story.
Learn about Making Treaty 7. Contemplate the very real costs of change. That lives are always held in the balance and that however you characterize it - change is like war and there will always be - to use the heinous phrase -"collateral damage". Three of the deceased personally impacted my life in ways unknowable but profound, but all 4 of them, Warriors all, left an indelible mark for change.
After hearing about the use of blackface on stage in my city, it had brought back to light past accounts that I had read through the press dating back years; the presence of it in our cultural and educational institutions. These examples were only stories I had heard, but I hadn't personally seen it live on stage until the Théâtre du Rideau Vert's year-end revue. Once I had seen it, I had not been prepared for the visceral reaction I would have.
But the afro-Québecois – Ils se souviennent. They remember. They remember the struggles waged by their parents and forefathers to gain a slither of dignity. They remember the jobs they weren't allowed to apply for, the apartments they weren't allowed to rent, the music clubs they weren't allowed to enter. For younger Black Quebeckers the memories aren't so far behind: in the era of racial profiling by police and proven racism by the municipal employer, among others.


In the article, I agree with a couple of Mr. Litt's observations about how the Fourth Amendment, as currently interpreted, is not suited to the digital age. But, as you might expect, I disagree very sharply with how he'd like it to change.
Specifically, Mr. Litt and I agree that the Fourth Amendment's current "reasonable expectation of privacy" test and the third party doctrine do not work well and should likely be dispensed with for digital search and seizure. Where we disagree, though, is that Mr. Litt removes the reasonable expectation of privacy without offering a replacement, leaving just a balancing test where the people being affected by surveillance have to show that they were individually harmed by the government's activities but the government only has to show potential benefit from its surveillance. Mr. Litt likens his formulation to an insurance policy, which protects its holder even when no claim is filed.
Additionally, within the doctrine this shift would also eliminate the core protections against general warrants which are one of the reasons the Fourth Amendment exists at all, as well as the presumption that searches of content are "per se" unreasonable. So while the "reasonable expectation of privacy" formulation is a problem, we need to search for suitable, privacy protective replacements, not just eliminate it entirely.
Mr. Litt agrees that the third party doctrine, where the government claims that your data in the hands of third parties like your ISP or Facebook or Google or Amazon simply loses all Fourth Amendment protection, should go. On that we agree. But he proposes something worse: that computer searches through masses of data—like those done by the NSA when it searches through the data carried on the fiberoptic cables via its Upstream program at issue in Jewel v. NSA—just shouldn't count for purposes of the Fourth Amendment. I call this the "human eyes" thesis. The idea that no search or seizure occurs until human eyes actually see your communications. I point out why that proposal, variations of which the government has made and lost in other contexts, is dangerous.
What is clear is that if we are going to address where the Fourth Amendment should be in the digital age, we must do better than a free-form balancing test where the government will always be perched on the heavy end of the scales, and where the substitution of computers for humans somehow eliminates our Fourth Amendment right to be secure from unreasonable seizures and searches of our most private communications.

Q: Wamp Virtual Host Set Up sorry for having a similar question to what has been posted all ready but the others aren't helping me.
I'm trying to set up a virtual host on my windows 8 computer but I can't seem to get it to work no matter what tutorial or help section i follow, this is my setup so far.
httpd-vhosts.conf

# Required modules: mod_log_config

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin admin@localhost.com
    DocumentRoot "C:\Program Files (x86)\2. Apps\Wamp\www"

# Virtual hosts
Include conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf

If i try to start wamp the icon goes orange.
If i run httpd.exe from command prompt i get the following error:
C:\Program Files (x86)\2. Apps\Wamp\bin\apache\apache2.4.2\bin>httpd.exe
(OS 10048)Only one usage of each socket address (protocol/network address/port)

AH00451: no listening sockets available, shutting down
AH00015: Unable to open logs

I read that another program might be blocking it or my firewall but i don't know how to fix it, any ideas?
Thanks

A: Thanks for everyone's input, there were two main problems
I installed wamp into a folder which was nested in a folder who's name had a space in so c:/folder/folder with a space/wamp/ which i have since been told is bad practice, if anyone knows why please tell.
The were issues with the internet protocol, namely ipv6, so solve this you need to ensure wamp only uses ipv4, inside httpd.conf find Listen 80 and change to Listen 0.0.0.0:80. Again i'm not sure what this does so if anyone knows please post below.
I hope this helps anyone else stuck.

This place used to frighten me a lot. Now it didn't, though it looked way more abandoned than ever. I still didn't go inside, though I found two entrances, possibly three.. I don't know what it is with me and abandoned places. They seem to fascinate me quite a bit. I just love that I think I'm the only one there but then again, you can never tell for sure.
Talking about abandoned, I feel like I've been neglecting my blog a lot recently. I have ideas for posts, but I just can't seem to get them done. I've written a lot of original music and pondering now weather to use them for just myself or Kelsey. Life is complicated, but it seems more complicated than ever at the moment.
Anyway, I'm excited for the Hunger Games movie to come out! I've been raving about it to everyone, and I really hope it's good. Judging by the cast and trailers, it seems pretty good!
Longer text than usually, sorry for that! I just had a lot on my mind!

Art…whether it lifts us out of a dark mood or plunges us deep into a contemplative moment, art has the power to make us feel…at this year's Dining by Design, I found myself reeling with divergent emotions…every installation, every collaboration, brought forth a unique and honest message…whether playful or edgy, I felt something extraordinary…and I couldn't help but think, this art was created for such an incredible cause…countless numbers of volunteers, designers, architects, sponsors, board members, students, mentors, and the list goes on and on, all united in the fight against HIV/AIDS…of the 40 remarkable installations, I selected 17 to feature in today's post…while some were designed by industry leaders, others were the tireless work, and vision, of student design teams…from Ralph Lauren to NYU, these designers brought thoughtful innovation and boundless energy to their craft…a seamless and fitting reflection of what DIFFA brings to their ongoing mission every day…I couldn't be more proud and honored to share this post with you.
The Marie Antoinette/Alice in Wonderful wall treatment is an enlarged reproduction of an original painting titled "Calamity" by artist Ray Cesar. The copper repousse root table and stools as well as the life size sheep sculptures are all designed by Robert Kuo.
Inspiration Statement: ALL ENCOMPASSING: Creating an environment of transformation and change of topography, of connections, of life, translating an ebb and flow of material and light as memory in a space.
hands it takes to spark positive change.
Inspiration Statement: "Deconstructed Closet" draws its inspiration from subversive icons of solidarity and revolution. A closet is no longer a place of shame, but one of beautiful transformation.
To whet our appetites, I thought I'd share a sampling of my favorite installations from the NYC 2012 DIFFA's Dining by Design event (held in conjunction with the AD Show). It was a magical place, uniting art & design all in an effort to provide direct care for people living with HIV/AIDS and foster preventive education for those at risk.
I can't wait to experience this year's magic! Hope to see you there!
