You want to heal yourself and others today through your spirit’s Balance and Cross-Fertilization, your soul’s Expansion, Order, Adventure and Freedom and your physical Ability to go through the Night to see the Light of a new day.

Day of the 'Sorcerer' Archetype Pentagram
Themes
This incredible process of transformation is energized today by the theme (axis in the pentagram) of ‘Awakening -Leadership’.
Blue 1- Red 55: Axis of Awakening- Leadership: 1(0)-(6)5
The axis of change drives the axis of inner awakening and leadership. Change- the only constant in this universe- is going to be your constant pressure to wake up and how to lead and inspire people. The two opposing principles are ‘Transformation, Transition’ coming from the “God” realm and ‘Ethics and Morality; Divine Sexuality’ coming from the “Ego” realm. It is not an easy one to fulfill with so much energy and chaos being present on this central axis.
10: Transformation
Transformation is the process of the caterpillar forming a cocoon and then emerging as a butterfly. In between the two physical states everything looks like chaos. It calls for a willingness to let go of everything known and experienced, and then to be able to be born again. It is the archetypal phase of the journey of the Hero wherein he dies as an adolescent only to re-emerge an adult man. It takes you to the next level, where everything starts anew.
It gives access to the paranormal world: being clairvoyant, clairaudient and/or clairsentient. Transformation is the Holy Mother, watching over everything, holding everything. (The trap would be is to feel responsible for everything and everyone. Taking on responsibilities beyond your duty and scope).
65: ’Ethics and morality; Divine Sexuality’.
In many cases a very strict ethical and moral attitude is connected to this number. It restricts the ability to live your sexuality without taboos and puts you in a very strict and moralistic straitjacket. The time is ripe to free yourself from these restricting thoughts and let your life-energy run freely.
The balance of these two principles lies in their sum: Awareness of Vitality; Power. It is the desire for fulness, justice, holiness and inner order want to develop to self-awareness. It is also the energy of Dominance, Rule (Power!), Dogmatic Faith and Outer Fame. This power as such does not have to be negative. It calls for balancing it and using it for cross-fertilization.
The positive leadership coming from this central axis is to lead through vitality-change and cross-fertilization. Your whole presence radiates change. When you have full access to this axis, you lead by vitality, by charisma, by energy. Literally ‘being’ the change through energy.
On the negative side your leadership may become very manipulative.
Levels of awareness
In today’s Pentagram there are no levels of awareness specifically activated. All the 4 points on the right side of the Pentagram are activated though. The right side represents the ‘masculine’ side of the Pentagram. The core number of today is Transformation. We are called upon to use our masculine awareness to bring “Spirit” into physical reality.
The energies of the 4 points are as follows:
Blue/Red 21: 21’Insight; Inner rising sun’ .
The Divine Idea energizes the World in which Polarity rules. You should understand that the divine core is within yourself. That leads to understanding and experiencing the Inner Rising Sun (the Dawn of Awareness - Consciousness).
Red 2: (3)2 “Divine Connection”; “Wire with the above”.
In the Kabbalistic Life Tree there are 10 Base Principles, which are interconnected by 22 Paths. 10+22=32. “Divine Connection, Wire with the above” numerologically refers to this combination and it contains the possibility to attain spiritual Awareness. The Kabbalah is a set of esoteric teachings meant to explain the relationship between an unchanging, eternal, and mysterious Ein Sof (infinity) and the mortal and finite universe (God’s creation).
Blue 4: 4(3) Horus factor; Pioneer
In the Egyptian Mythology, Horus is the son of Isis and Osiris. He represents pioneering achievements. (As an adult he defeated his uncle and adversary of his father Seth in a duel and wins the reign of Egypt. Because of this the Pharaohs were seen as embodiments of Horus). In Greek mythology Horus is Apollo (Lord of the light, the spring, moral purity and moderation). Thus Horus embodies a pioneering and well-balanced personality.
Blue/Red 554: 54 Reformer.
The ‘Reformer’ obviously wants to bring reforms to his life. The approach is to create fullness, expansion through practical work. It is done with intellect and subtle feelings. A prerequisite is the expansion of self-awareness through intuition. It also calls for a conscious decision to deal with the temptations in life in such a way that they lead to more wisdom.
May these strong energies support you in creating a Transformation today.
Note: If your birthday is today, the topics described above are your topics for 2024. Should a baby be born on this day, then today’s themes are the baby’s life-themes.

2024.05.15 09:21 Boring-Rutabaga5319 A Comprehensive Guide About Application For Leave From School

During a student’s academic journey, unplanned events may happen that require them to miss class. People with kids need to know how to ask for school leave, whether for an emergency, a family emergency, or a planned vacation. You can request to miss school in writing by filling out an application for leave in school. People typically apply to leave school for various reasons, such as to go on a long trip, get medical care, or go to an event. Remember that applications for school leave need to be made politely and professionally. The application for leave in school should be brief and indicate the cause for the absence, how long it will last, and when the student will return. The application for leave will be talked about briefly in this article.

Reason for Leave application

For private reasons

A student may need to take time off if they have to deal with a family problem or another personal matter. For medical reasons if a child is sick or hurt and needs to be cared for or rest, they may have to miss school. Parents have to provide an application for leave in school for fever.

Because of religion

A student might miss class to attend a church event or celebrate a holiday. Because they need to learn, students may miss class to finish an internship, go on a study abroad course, or go to a conference.

Outside of school

Students may miss a few school days because of an event or action outside of school.They should provide an application for leave in school for going out of station.

Types of Leave

Medical, personal, emergency, and holiday leave are the most common types of leave that schools give. Knowing the differences between the types is essential because each may have different needs and ways of applying them.

How Applications Are Made?

Applications for leave in school are made through routes set up by schools. As part of it, you might have to use a website, fill out a form, or write an official letter. Parents and children should learn about the school’s recommended application process to ensure they follow it.

Very Important Papers

Application for leave in school may mean that schools must ask for supporting documents. Medical leave sometimes needs a note or proof from a doctor. You may need the same kind of proof of trip plans for vacation time. Gather the necessary paperwork and send it in with the leave request.

Time of absence

Most of the time, schools ask parents to let them know before they take their child out of the building. Then, the school management can do the right thing and ensure the child’s education is interrupted less often. Parents should request time off from school as soon as possible, in line with the school’s stance on advance notice. Parents should provide an application for leave in school for 1 day in advance.

Amount of time away

When it comes to schools, there may be rules about how much time you can miss for different reasons. There may be limits on vacation time, but people who are sick may be able to take medical leave for as long as they need it. Parents and children should know these time limits so they don’t get mixed up. The school management takes requests for time off when they are sent in. Anyone on the staff, like the director, school counsellor, or someone else, can review this. Parents and kids should be patient and wait for proof of clearance before moving forward.

Communication Tools

Schools usually set up specific ways for parents to talk to their administrators about requests for time off. One way to do this is to go online, email a pre-addressed address, or call the school office. When parents and kids use the official ways to get in touch, they can ensure their needs are heard and met. Parents and kids who want to take time off should check in with the school to ensure they got the application for leave in school and see what’s going on. They should quickly provide additional paperwork or details to speed up the process. The open conversation keeps approvals from being late.

Other Places of Education

To make sure that a student’s education continues while they are abroad, schools could offer other ways to learn. This could mean making study guides, giving homework, or teaching online. Asking about these plans might help lessen the adverse effects of leave on a child’s schoolwork. It must be turned in before the leave of absence starts and is usually sent to the school’s department head or director.

Go back to School Rules and How to Do Things

Schools could have set up specific rules to help kids return to the classroom after taking a break. This could include going to teacher meetings, making up missed work, or finishing tests. Parents who want to ensure their child returns to the regular schedule should call the school. For legal and administrative reasons, schools keep much information on students present and absent. To avoid problems, parents and children must carefully record requests for time off and keep an eye on their child’s attendance.

Review and Thoughts

Parents and kids can stay current on any changes or improvements by reviewing the school’s leave policies and procedures. Giving the school administration comments on their experiences with asking for time off can also help ensure that things keep improving.

Conclusion

Parents and kids need to know the school’s rules about requesting time off to talk about their needs and ensure the kids have a smooth educational experience. Parents and kids can handle the process confidently and keep their child’s schooling as regular as possible if they know the types of leaves, the necessary paperwork, and the permission processes. Parents and schools must work together, plan, and talk to each other so that application for leave in school requests are adequately treated and students can keep up with their work.

FAQs

How do I request school leave?
To request school leave, write to your principal or other school administration.
How early should I request leave?
Leave should be requested as early as possible to allow the school to make arrangements. The timeline depends on school policy and the cause of the leave. In a medical emergency, you may need to apply for leave sooner.
What is the use of leave applications in school?
A leave application is a written request to take time off school, college, or employment for a certain period.

2024.05.15 09:21 grady_vuckovic 7 Proposals for Ways of Addressing Housing Affordability

I don't need to tell anyone here that housing affordability is bad right now so I'll cut to the chase...
What can be done about it?
I got seven proposals to address the problem.
But first.. lets talk about what I call 'Non-Solutions'.
A Non-Solution is something that feels like a solution but isn't. For example: Scratching at itchy skin isn't a solution to a rash.
There's a few Non-Solutions I'm going to be avoiding with my proposals:
Instead solutions need to be formed through means such as:
So - what could we do?

Proposal 1 - The AAHC

I call it the 'Australian Affordable Housing Construction Company', aka, AAHC Co.
Government initiated housing construction company, similar to the NBN Co.
It has one goal: Build houses and sell them. It has a target rate of 'houses/quarter' it aims to construct houses at. That rate is set by an independent body that aims to keep the cost of housing to a fixed level relative to incomes, and controlled in a fashion similar to the official interest rate. Another lever on the economy. The rate increases when housing supply is low, and decreases when housing supply is high.
The AAHC builds houses. Then sells them. Simple as that. No other purpose. The goal is to break even, build houses, sell them at market value (no profit). The great thing is, this means the AAHC has a net zero funding cost for the tax payer - literally costs nothing to run, because it pays for itself through sales of houses.
The actual construction would be done by external private construction companies under contract who compete under bids to build suburbs worth of houses in large projects. Which is another benefit. Lots of jobs creation, a big boon for our local manufacturing and construction industry, and any related employment opportunities (construction companies don't just hire builders after all, they hire graphic designers, accountants, managers, receptionists, etc).
As additional benefit, because the government is building the houses, it can ensure the houses meet conditions and standards we the people want to see applied to future housing construction. So it could be mandated for example, every new home constructed must have air conditioning, must have solar panels, etc.
The AAHC Co in summary:

Proposal 2 - Nationalised Definitions of 'Tiny Homes', and Easing Of Laws Regarding Them

The reality is, there is such a shortfall of housing in Australia, that it may take a decade or longer to address the problem, even if we started implementing the right policies to do so today.
What people need is alternatives. Today.
Such as 'Tiny Homes'.
Tiny homes can be constructed in larger quantities, prefab, for cheaper than a house, and constructed on a trailer frame which allows them to be easily moved and transported.
They can be significantly cheaper than a house, and moved easily, opening up prospects for someone to own reasonable housing in Australia for a fraction of the cost of buying an established constructed house, by buying very cheap land, a cheap 'Tiny Home' and parking it permanently on their land. Then eventually moving it on, selling it even, once it comes time to upgrade to a permanent fixture house, or move into a larger fixed house.
Because they're legally defined as caravans, they subject to all the same rules.
The first problem is, those rules vary depending on where you live. Not just for each state, but even depending which council you live in. Some councils have no clear regulations at all, making matters worse. A nationalised definition of a 'Tiny Home', and national laws regarding them, would make life easier for everyone.
The second problem is, because currently Tiny Homes are defined legally as Caravans, they are subject to the same restrictions, which can be stifling, such as, subject to location (state or council laws vary). Here are some of the worst restrictions found around the country:
A nationalised legal framework for tiny homes, and easing of laws around them, to make them easier and cheaper to obtain, install and live in, would open up possibilities for alternative means of housing to ease the burden on the existing housing market.

Proposal 3 - Housing Super Fund

Super is a well established method for ensuring individuals can afford their retirement without resorting to giving people free money or price fixing the cost of retirement. It forces employers to make contributions to employee's super funds, that then collect invest, grow, and eventually can be accessed at retirement age.
This is a mechanism we can borrow to achieve a similar result for renters, to allow them eventually afford housing.
I call it a 'Housing Super Fund'.
How it could work is like this:
Every tenant is Australia, could have a 'housing super fund' set up for them when they start renting. Every time a tenant pays rent, the land lord receiving the rental payment, could be required to deposit 5% of that payment into the tenant's housing super fund.
Land lords will insist, argue, that they will put up rents by 5% to compensate. But this is a lie. Prices are determined by customer purchase power. Renters will not have any additional purchase power as a result of this change. Rents won't go up in real terms over a long period of time, instead this change eats a cut away of rents from landlords and invests it on the behalf of tenants.
The housing super fund could be made accessible if and when a tenant is making their "first home purchase". If that never occurs, the funds could available automatically at retirement age instead.

Proposal 4 - Increased Property Taxes for Landlords & Elimination of Negative Gearing

While some people are facing the prospect that they may NEVER be able to afford a house in their lifetime - other individuals, might have as many as 7 properties, and are currently shopping for their 8th.
It's obvious, that the system strongly favours those who already own houses and have capital, ahead of those who don't.
So, simple solution, is to increase taxes for being a landlord.
Property taxes faced by individuals could be higher for those who own more than one house, and increase with each additional house owned.
And, Negative Gearing, eliminated, since it creates such a massive financial incentive to own more than one house.

Proposal 6 - Harsh taxes on empty resident housing

A simple proposal.
There are empty houses across Australia.
Tax the owners until they either rent them out or sell them or move into them.

Proposal 7 - Housing HELP Loan

Saved the best for last. Got a HELP Loan? Then you know how this loan structure works.
You borrow money from the government to pay for education, and then pay off that help loan in your taxes, if and when your income is above a minimum threshold. In the mean time, the loan amount is adjusted based on interest rates at the end of each financial year.
There's no reason why we can't have a similar loan structure made available for housing.
'Housing HELP Loan' could be made available to cover up to 75% of the purchase price of an individual's first home, with the remaining 25% required as an upfront deposit. The loan then can be paid off as part of the individual's taxes if and when their income is above a minimum threshold.
This would enable millions who currently can't get a home loan to finally get one, and ensure the debt of a home loan isn't financially crushing when individuals end up in a situation where they are temporarily unable to pay off their loan due to loss of employment.
That's 7 proposals to fixing housing affordability in Australia.
Which ones do you think would work?
Which ones do you think would stand a chance politically of being supported by a major party and made into reality?

2024.05.15 09:10 ThunderLifeStudios Looking To Start A Running Buddy Service

I enjoy running and can run a 7 minute mile for around 3 miles so I assume I am at least able to give a varied level of pacing for clients.
What I wanted to offer in general are set locations (relative to client addresses), provide water and potentially sunblock and ibuprofen/acetaminophen (more a courtesy than a service but potential expense).
My area seems fitness oriented, but I think having a partner may aide others to fulfill their desired objectives. It may make someone feel more comfortable getting started, feel safer being with someone they can trust.
I would take precautions such as getting client relevant health information e.g. diabetes and only using my cheap phone in the event someone tries to rob/scam me.
How would I go about charging for the services? I feel I would do a prepay service where they can give me the required info like time and date, desired pace and course challenge e.g. flat or hilly areas.
I was thinking a flat rate for 30 minutes, say $30 (30 minutes) and $55 for (1hr) or something relative to distance. Not really sure about the pay model. I think 1 hr per client would be it for me and of course limit the number of clients I take on per day.
What do you guys think?
Edit: maybe the website can have a few affiliate products to suggest to clients?

2024.05.15 09:08 Winter-Ad-8701 Apex hidden rules

Hi, I'm interested to hear experiences people have had, and are currently having with Apex Trader Funding PA accounts. Specifically if they've been paid out ok, or if they've had any "unqualified trades" removed.
My issue is that Apex have a TON of extra rules on the PA accounts. They can seemingly deny us a payout for literally any reason they choose. Things like not "chasing the market" - what even is that? If it's going up, I'm going to buy! I trade price action, and if I think that going long is going to make me money, why wouldn't I buy?
I understand that they have to protect themselves from people throwing 10 contracts on the NQ and making $5000 on day 1, then flipping 1 contract on the MNQ for the next few days. That's fine, and is covered by the 30% consistency rule(although I'd prefer that to be 30% per trade, not per day).
What I don't like is the unnecessary threats of removing trades and funds from my account if I slip up and don't follow their rigid, draconian set of rules. They have rules about always using a stop loss, yet allow group trading on Tradovate, which does not allow bracket orders on group trades! It's literally the most requested feature on the Tradovate forum.
They have rules about not changing sizes. I change sizes depending on a few things, volatility, how sure I am about a trade, what my balance/drawdown is etc.
They have rules about having a clearly explainable system, yet I am a discretionary trader and use price action.
They have a no news trading rule, yet it doesn't state what news trading is. Is it a major economic release, and you have to be flat 1 minute before and after? 2 minutes before and after? It doesn't say!
There's a no dollar cost averaging rule, does that mean we can't scale? Scaling is essential for some people, and absolutely makes sense if the market is in a trading range, as your first entry may not be optimal if you tried to buy the bottom and it pulls back further, so why not add a second contract?
I could go on, but I think I've made my point. Trading is hard enough without these artificial rules being enforced. If I make money on my personal account, that's it, I have profit. I don't have to explain anything to anyone, it's money that I have made. All I need to focus on is trading and making profit. Yet with Apex, I would need to be thinking "does this trade meet their criteria, is my stop enough ticks away, have I waited long enough after news, how many contracts did I use yesterday" etc.
Thoughts?

2024.05.15 08:41 ElloMelloMelloMello 21F still at my wits end with stomach issues and trying to gauge my next steps

I am so sorry for the length, thank you so much if you read this.
Last time I gave this info:
I'm female, 21, 5'7" and weight around 255. If you scroll through my post history you'll see last year I was dealing with extreme period irregularity. I was never diagnosed with anything like PCOS but did go on a birth control pill which helped to regulate my cycle. I have been on that since November, I have also been on a Wellbutrin/Sertraline combo since August. That and therapy really has my anxiety and depression at wya more manageable levels. The problems I'm about to talk about started in January.
I have started having more digestive type issues since January. I've had almost constant acid reflux for over a year. I tried one of those two week courses of medicine you can find on the shelf to help but it didn't at all. I turned 21 in June, I've tried maybe 6 drinks in that time frame (it's March now) and I hate the taste and it makes me feel yuck and nauseous even after just 1 so I don't drink.
In the past month I have been having times where I wake up 5-6 hours after eating with intense mid to upper stomach and back pain it was like a band of pain that wrapped around my body. It's like a 8/10 on the pain scale. I thought it was heartburn or indigestion so I would try a Pepto, warm shower, nothing would help. I would be up for hours in tears. Before it somewhat subside and I would feel a little better. The last one happened on 3/12 into 3/13. I thought this could be due to large meals, or timing of dinner. I haven't been able to see a pattern though yet.
I feel nauseous way more than I ever used to, after eating or while in the car. Also in the past couple of weeks my bathroom activities have been a lot more different. It used to be, I would have a regular poop once a day, of the firm but not too firm consistency you would expect and normal color unless I ate like something green or blue. Now, I feel like every time I sit on the toilet now (3-5 times a day at least) I poop. It's not completely runny but it's not firm in the slightest. It's also had the strangest, weirdest odor. I have no idea what to explain it like but it's different and worse than normal. It's also become a lot darker. I don't know if it's really a black, I can't really tell but it's definitely a super dark brown at the least and I don't know if it's tarry, it's definitely kind of shiny, I really don't know how to explain it. I have just felt off lately. I haven't eaten anything super fiber containing, the last time I had Pepto was on the 10th. Those were some things I felt important to include as I know pepto could cause black stool.
Another thing, possibly important to know is just food aversion. Lately, food just doesn't taste the same, things don't sound good, and I'm not getting hunger cues like I used to. I often go most of the day without ever feeling hungry, this usually results in me eating 1 meal for dinner and maybe a snack earlier in the day? And my stomach just randomly mildly aches.
I also realized it's probably important to mention the exhaustion. Since January it has been so bad. I know it's normal to be tired expecially as a busy college student but I've missed multiple classes because I overslept or was too tired. And I've never done that before. I'm usually asleep between 10-11pm on the weekdays and around 12am on the weekends. On weekdays I wake up between 7 and 8am and weekends probably 8 and 9am. It's hard to not use electronics before sleep especially with homework and such. But it's been so bad. I just get so exhausted I don't know how to explain it. But I just feel heavy and I can't get out of bed because I'm so tired.I feel like it all probably relates to my weight. It's something I've struggled with and have tried to work on it. I haven't changed my diet in terms of types of food since I was at 200lbs in high school and I've focused on portions and more activity. I guess it could be stress too? But I don't feel like I've been stressed any differently lately?
Here is where I’m at currently: I went to my pcp who check my blood counts, lipase, and did a CMP. A year ago I had elevated ALT/AST levels (diagnosed with fatty liver) and those were back down to well within normal range. Nothing came out of these tests everything was normal. They also checked for H. Pylori and that was negative. So to rule out gallbladder I had a right upper quadrant ultrasound today. I did the fasting for 8 hours before and everything. The ultrasound results were just fatty liver. There was no evidence of gallstones or gallbladder thickening.
The final thing to add before I explain what was currently going on is I was put on 40 mg of pantoprazole to take once in the morning at least 30-60 minutes before first meal. This was because I tried Prilosec in August and that didn’t help, nothing has helped. I’ve been on it for a week and honestly I thought I noticed a difference, definitely a less constant feeling of acid reflux. Something that has been constant for around a year.
After my ultrasound I came home around 5:30pm and had a small amount of fish and fries. I did not eat to full, took time to eat, etc. went about my day. Around 8:30pm I felt a bit hungry so I had some chips and cheese, it wasn’t much but i felt satisfied and good. Like 20 minutes after my stomach started to hurt like it had been, I was confused because I felt confident the cause was in part behind laying down only a few hours after eating but I hadn’t laid down. It’s almost 3am and I am hurting bad. It definitely feels a bit like heartburn but it’s also just a gripping twisting pain right at my ribs from belly button to breast and around my back. I’m just lost and nervous and not sure what next steps will be.

2024.05.15 08:35 Puzzleheaded-Car1239 Bisaya's "Tama Attitude" in workplace

I read a subreddit about the long feud between Bisaya and Tagalogs and that Bisaya has this called "Tama" attitude. I couldn't agree more.
~long post ahead~
Based on my experience, most of my excruciating scenarios where I couldn't stand someone's work ethic happens to be with a Bisaya colleague.
This started two years ago. We got deployed in a school where we need to stay in.
  1. I got a Bisayan roommate who's overly controlling on how we should act and behave in our dorm. She would want to make almost all decisions like when we should clean the room (anytime she wants) or how the room should look like. She would comment even on our meal routine and how we shouldn't cook something because she didn't like a certain dish. But for us, we couldn't voice out our choices because we will be resented. It came to a point where it got suffocating and it left me no choice but to exchange dorms.
In relation to the title, at work, she wasn't as different. Since she had a connection to our boss, she acts as if she has a say to everything our colleagues do. PS, we are both newbies and we shall be the ones to reach out and learn to get to know them but she chose to intimidate our fellow employees instead. Like for example, our colleagues started putting out their lunchbox at 11:55am. When I asked her if she'd like to eat, she says "No thanks, it's still 5 minutes until lunch" loudly for our officemates to hear. I felt the tension and the awkward silence after. After that, nobody ever talks with her at work.
  1. Another Bisayan speaker got to orient us for a week at work. She overhears another Bisayan colleague and I discussing about the program. Let me code my colleague R (he) and the speaker J (she). The orientation was in between a busy schedule on closing the previous year and transitioning to a new one. R was asking if I could replace him to host the event which will be 30 mins prior the start. I normally don't have a problem with impromptu tasks if it would be hours of prep before the actual, but this one I rejected. I said no and explained I still have deadline for closing the year so all I could do is attend the orientation. The speaker, J, butted in and encouraged me that what I'd do is simple. Still for me, I preferred hosting if I was conditioned to do so or if I had the time to prepare so they got a second firm "no" from me.
During the orientation, J the speaker, unsurprisingly took her sweet time teaching us on not saying "no" to the tasks we were being given. She was reiterating that saying "no" to responsibilities was rejecting growth at work while looking at me the whole time. I knew from the start she was referring to the interaction we had earlier. I had been uncomfortable and really second guessed myself hard afterward.
Anyway, I got closure on this because I did not attend the orientation the next day and directly addressed the issue with her. Guess what? She suddenly didn't have an idea on what I was talking about and that she didn't intend to do anything that upsets me. Lesson: Don't get intimidated by passive-aggression; they will fold once you let them know you know what they're playing.
  1. Our boss is Bisaya. She's fond of employees that were from her same hometown. Unfortunately, this caused division in our work dynamic. Our Bisaya colleagues were always put on pedestal like they were given higher positions at their first year (unlike the tenured and qualified ones) and were never called out for their toxic behaviors at work. They were always the ones to break the rules they set that even clients complain but since they have power and in supervisory positions, they fall on deaf ears all the time. When they do break the rules, they are quick to ignore or they scapegoat others. But if other than them commits mistakes, they were being escalated and announced. I firmly believe this rooted from our boss' unfair treatment. It made our Bisaya colleagues think highly of themselves. Tenured and qualified employees get exhausted for nothing and get blamed for every mistake. While they are being continuously rewarded just because they are fellow BISAYA. No wonder every year, most employees resign in this company.
My conclusion - most of Bisaya I get to work with have dominating personalities and are sometimes passive-aggressive.
I'd like to know shared experiences from the comments.

2024.05.15 08:35 brandliaison10 EPR P waste Registration for Different Plastic Packaging Categories in India

Plastic pollution has emerged as a pressing environmental challenge globally, and India is no exception. In response to this issue, the concept of Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) has gained prominence as a crucial policy tool.
Extended Producer Responsibility places the onus on producers to manage the lifecycle of their products, especially concerning disposal and recycling. In India, plastic packaging constitutes a significant portion of the plastic waste generated, prompting the government to introduce EPR regulations tailored for different plastic packaging categories.

EPR Registration for Plastic Waste in India

EPR Registration for plastic waste in India is a pivotal aspect of the country's efforts to tackle plastic pollution. The Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change has issued comprehensive guidelines on Extended Producer Responsibility under the Plastic Waste Management Rules, 2016.
These guidelines, coupled with the prohibition of specific single-use plastic items notorious for their low utility and high littering potential from July 1, 2022, mark crucial steps towards mitigating the pollution caused by discarded plastic waste across the nation. The framework provided by the guidelines aims to bolster the circular economy of plastic packaging waste, foster the development of alternative materials to plastics, and chart a course towards sustainable plastic packaging practices by businesses.
Mandates within the guidelines include the promotion of the reuse of rigid plastic packaging materials to curtail the consumption of fresh plastic and the setting of minimum recycling levels for plastic packaging waste collected under EPR, along with the utilization of recycled plastic content, which collectively work towards reducing plastic consumption and bolstering plastic packaging waste recycling efforts.

Plastic Packaging Categories are Covered Under EPR

Under the Extended Producer Responsibility framework, several categories of plastic packaging fall within its scope, including:
Category I: Rigid plastic packaging
Category II: Single-layer or multilayer flexible plastic packaging, plastic sheets, carry bags, sachets, or pouches
Category III: Multi-layered plastic packaging with at least one layer of material other than plastic
Category IV: Plastic sheets and compostable plastic carry bags
Producers, importers, and brand owners utilizing any of these types of plastic packaging are required to register for EPR and meet their respective responsibilities as per the regulations.

The Significance of EPR Registration for P-waste

EPR registration for plastic waste management holds significant importance for producers, importers, and brand owners due to several reasons:

How to Get EPR License for Plastic Waste?

To obtain EPR License for plastic waste management, follow these steps:
Step 1: Begin by registering on the centralized EPR portal developed by the CPCB. This registration grants access to the application form and provides necessary login credentials.
Step 2: Log in to the portal and complete the application form, ensuring all required information is provided. Separate application forms are available for producers, importers, and brand owners. Upload relevant documents as per the specified requirements.
Step 3: Alongside the application, submit the requisite application fee. Utilize the integrated payment gateway on the portal for convenient online payment processing.
Step 4: Applications from entities operating in one or two states are forwarded to the respective State Pollution Control Boards for further processing. For entities operating in more than two states, the CPCB manages the application processing.
Step 5: Authorized officials review the submitted application for completeness and accuracy. Upon successful verification, the CPCB or SPCB issues the EPR registration certificate, featuring a digital signature integrated into the portal.
Conclusion
In conclusion, navigating the intricacies of EPR Registration for different plastic packaging categories in India is a crucial step towards sustainable waste management practices. As plastic pollution continues to pose significant environmental challenges, it becomes imperative for producers, importers, and brand owners to fulfill their EPR obligations effectively.
In this endeavor, Brand Liaison, a trusted partner specializing in regulatory compliance, plays a pivotal role in assisting businesses to obtain EPR Authorization seamlessly.

2024.05.15 08:21 nakaryle HELP with rs3 gimbal, UNSTEADY footage

Hey guys, I need help with my rs3 mini gimbal, my shots aren't steady and it's hard to keep my subject in the center of the frame when I orbit.
Here is my setup so you can troubleshoot:
Everytime I use the gimbal, I make sure to make the calibration "excellent" on every axis. I also auto-tune the gimbal before use.
My gimbal is mounted in contact laterally on the right with the gimbal (the lateral setting you can adjust with the small red handle, next to the grey one you use to mount the camera on the gimbal).
Here are my settings inside the RS3 for an orbit shot :
Follow speed : medium or slow, I find that medium is a little bit easier.
Deadband : high
Inside the "control" settings in the bottom, there is :
In the pan tab : deadband high / max speed medium / smoothness high
In the tilt tab : deadband high / max speed medium / smoothness high
In the roll tab : deadband high / max speed medium / smoothness high.
Anyway, since I'm using a Pan Follow mode for the orbit shot, the tilt and roll settings don't matter theoretically.
Now, when I try to do my orbit shot, pointing the camera at the subject and walking around it (doing it like the Brandon Li video where he explains it), I do my ninja walk, the camera doesn't bounce up and down very much, so I'm "gliding" pretty well, however the hard part is keeping the subject framed in the center !
The gimbal is alternating between lagging behind a little bit late, and correcting its trajectory by doing a sudden move which puts the camera too much ahead of where I point.
So my subject is moving from left to the right relatively to the center of the frame and it looks super weird because the gimbal seems to autocorrect the fact that it's lagging behind by doing sudden movements.I thought maybe this is because I have too much deadband, because the camera seems to be lagging behind in the first place for that very reason (high deadband), but with a medium or low setting for deadband, now the camera is shakier and overall less stable.
How do I do it ? Please help me I'm desperate.

2024.05.15 08:21 nakaryle HELP with rs3 gimbal, UNSTEADY footage

Hey guys, I need help with my rs3 mini gimbal, my shots aren't steady and it's hard to keep my subject in the center of the frame when I orbit.
Here is my setup so you can troubleshoot:
Everytime I use the gimbal, I make sure to make the calibration "excellent" on every axis. I also auto-tune the gimbal before use.

2024.05.15 08:20 Intelligent_League79 I feel daunted, inferior, and like I already can’t handle my internship. How do I be better?

Greetings,
I’m a summer CS intern.
As a college student who’s not worked much before, it’s all new to me as well as the formal procedures, communications, mannerisms and such that come with having a job. How everyone is in a professional environment I guess. I feel whiplashed still by all of this, it’s hard to believe the building I drive to is my workplace.
I’ve had quite a day. I have spent all day today working with the IT department trying to figure out why software I need won’t install. Also, I’ve been going through the documentation for my first assignment to figure out how all the software and code works. It feels like I need to learn a course worth of stuff very quickly, in order to even address the bugs and create new things I need to have an understanding of the software. It’s quite daunting and I’m scared to look at the problem or code or docs out of fear of feeling dumb.
I have a team with me that’s working on related work items in our program. I saw a Kanban board that displays who’s working on what and how far they are along, and despite it being day 2, I already feel like I have competition and that I’m so far behind for not knowing anything about the code or software or custom programs we’re using (even though I’m not expected to know this already.)
I just don’t want to disappoint anyone and I feel like I’m already falling apart inside. I couldn’t even get to the code for most of the day because my privileges were not set, and there were like 3 other major issues that I had to email IT about.
Is what I’m feeling normal? I don’t have stressful colleagues they’re all good and very informative which helps a lot, but i feel so inferior to them it’s sad. What advice do y’all have for me on this? How can I be better?

2024.05.15 08:18 Dreama_ How do I handle this?

I wasn't over my ex. I met a guy when I was starting to hang out with people and develop my own character after years of isolation. The guy took an interest in me and started obsessively stalking or being attached to me. I strongly disliked him at first, but as time went on, I caught a liking to him because of our common fields of research, and that he could provide me with information on various accounts. He has a history of making obsessions, be it people or just studying, but It usually didn't go as deep as learning a whole language for someone. He's highly religious to the point he follows a strict set of rules, and I respect that for him. Back then he wasn't insistent on me changing since I didn't really give him a chance to speak his mind, but now I got attached to him, and he's very hopeful about me converting.
I tried to imagine that long term, but It's just not doing it for me. What do I even do at this point? He makes me feel crazy, as though It's obvious that his way is the right way. Once said something indefinite like "you wonder, you ponder, but those prospects of yours won't squander." I'm actually just damned. I tried catching a liking onto his ways, but I couldn't. I still somewhat feel at fault. What do I even do? For me, religion is an asset, and I follow a similar philosophy to that of Nietzsche. Problem is that he made me feel happy, and that's honestly what makes me temporarily question my ways. Is happiness the same thing as of fulfilment? Denying myself that could be detrimental. I do want that peace, but I don't want to change. How is a healthy relationship even supposed to look like?

2024.05.15 08:17 qyburn13 I 'soft' launched my game 5 months ago and took the time to play around with my page and promoting slowly before properly putting it out there and why I think all first time devs should do the same.

I launched my Steam page 5 months ago and since then it has done fairly well so I thought other people might get something out of me writing about it.
I approached things as I took a slightly different approach to most people in that I 'soft' launched with no trailer and no promotion. My reasoning behind this was that I had no following online, no experience marketing, and I wanted to get an idea of these things as well as really nail my game hook before I started promoting.
I'll start by saying that I know my wishlists aren't as high as some peoples crazy numbers but I think it has done ok for a first time launch by someone with zero experience.
This is my game on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2752020/Lair_Of_The_Leviathan/
Heres my wishlist graph. I'm currently just under 12k wishlists.
https://imgur.com/a/7zsxd3m
Warning, this might be a long post but I tried to break it down into sections.
The first spike is from the steam traffic at launch. The little bumps throughout were just posting either pixelart, on dev forums, Twitter etc. Just basic posts or art. Then the big spike at the end is the proper promotion with the trailer.
I thought I'd go through a few areas and methods I used to slowly build up an audience. When I first started posting it was more about practicing. Identifying a core message and seeing what works and getting comfortable with things.
At first I started with mainly reddit, Facebook groups and Twitter. I thought since no one knows about my game and I'm really uncomfortable posting about jt I just want to put it out there a bit and see what people think. I figured that these are easy platforms to post on and I could slowly build up my twitter following. After I started to promote a bit and had a trailer I started targetting specific subreddits related to my genre.
Reddit -
Reddit is great for getting quick steam visits. But it's a one and done type of thing. Traffic drops off in less than a day usually and it's difficult to find places to post promotional stuff.
If your art is pixel art, pixelart is ok but people there generally aren't interested in games, or at least my type of RPG. A post with around 1000 upvotes would get me about 50-100 wishlists.
Dev subreddits can get you some traffic but I found it much more useful to get people's reaction and to see what worked, what doesn't work. Subs like indiedev are great for just posting things and not worrying about a negative reaction as generally people are great!
If you have a specific type of game, I found that targetting that specific audience! For me the most effective was rpggamers. You might thinking smaller subreddits aren't worth it but you will get a higher percentage of people interested. I had way more views and upvotes on my pixelart posts but my rpggamers post gave me a much higher ratio of visits and wishlists.
Also one thing I didn't know and a kind soul pointed out was games. They have over 3 million subscribers. They don't allow promotion but they have an indie Sunday where you can post once a month. Use that once your page looks good.
The biggest take away I had from reddit in general was don't just go in dumping your 'ad' on people. No one wants to read that. Just be genuine, say here, this is my game, this is my hook, this is why I'm making it and why you might like it. I see a lot of developers not identifying why people should be interested in their game, what makes it different, people would want to play it?
Twitter -
What is often said about Twitter is true. It's a lot of devs following devs. Even if you get a viral post it won't give you mega traffic for your page. I had one post with almost a million views and it contributed maybe 5000 visits with a much lower conversion rate too.
However, I think people are looking at Twitter wrong. It's good for posting quick updates, seeing what interests people, testing out your game 'hook' and messaging and seeing what people respond to. It's also just great for practicing how to post and getting desensitised if you are worried about posting in public. I'm an introvert so I loved posting on Twitter to my 0 followers and not having to worry!
It can also lead to publications picking up and posting about your game. These do result in actual steam visits. I had a couple of sites write about my game which resulted in a few 1000 visits each time.
The more followers you get the more things are amplified when you post too. You can have quite a far reach with ‘normal’ people but again, so far I haven't found it leads to as much traffic as reddit although I only have a couple of thousand followers
Facebook groups-
This is one that I think people underestimate, especially at the beginner level. Facebook posts I found have a way longer tail too. Reddit traffic just disappears in a day but on Facebook it's a steady stream over a week.
It's also a good place to get feedback, practice your messaging and identify your hook that sets your game apart. There are very specific groups for certain genres. I had a lot of success with the indie games dev group (IGD) and when you are first starting out, even a few hundred visits is a huge deal. A lot of the groups are small but they appreciate you posting and you will get high visit rates. Plus I found people there are really friendly..
At a certain point it's not worth it but when you're starting out it's great to practice and also get visits coming in. A few people in the industry also read the posts on Facebook so you can make some connections really easily.
TikTok -
I don't think my game is TikTok friendly (or I suck at it) I have a grand total of 7 views on all my videos combined.
If anyone has success on TikTok with a pixelart game I’d love to hear it.
Other take aways - -
I think the big take away for me was that when you first launch your page, you will suck, at least as a first time developer (at least I did). My page was worse, my art wasn’t very good, even just the set up and descriptions. I think trying to market with that would have been a disaster.
I think taking that extra few months to build up confidence, adjust my page, get my messaging right, these were really key. I get Steam gives you a little push the first day but a push with a shitty looking page and no idea of your hook or how to promote your game will get you nothing anyway.
I think. 'soft' launching like I did really helped me learn how things work and most importantly than anything get down 'ok, this is my hook, this is how it's different to others'. I had no idea about that at launch. Some people say once your game is out it’s out but realistically, no one cares or knows about your game until you start telling them about it. That's really liberating in a way. You can play around, changes things do what you want and literally no one cares
Sorry for that huge wall of text. Waiting for the 'im not reading that' comments but I hope at least some people find it helpful.
Again I'm no expert, I'm sure I could do things better but I think it worked out pretty well. I just wanted to give some tips in case people are either at a loss about whether they should launch their page or not or even why they can’t get traction.
I’m happy answering any questions or you can message me on TwitteX @nostalgicrealms

2024.05.15 08:11 Zanijin_ 2.3 Spoilers - Just another copium theory about 2.3

In light of all the doomposting and wariness about the future of Firefly in the story after the events of 2.0-2.2, I wanted to compile some known information to piece together a theory on why she is likely joining the express in 2.3, and hopefully sparking a positive conversation about it. Some things I will be referencing will be spoilers for 2.3 so if you'd like to remain completely spoiler free, I suggest avoiding this post. You have been warned.
So, before I begin with the 2.3 leaks, I'd first like to take a step back and look at the character as a whole. Firefly, in the short time she has been in the story has become immensely popular within the community, but beyond that she has also had quite an effect on the MC. Regardless of whatever ships you do and don't subscribe to and even the choices you make in game, it's undeniable that the MC has feelings/an attachment for our girl and that these are reciprocated by Firefly (Again, you are free to believe if these are romantic feelings or not, though I believe it leans toward the former). The MC choosing to trust in Firefly despite her initial secrecy in 2.0, Firefly willing to risk exposing herself as Sam (A known Stellaron Hunter and wanted criminal) to protect herself and the MC (This might be an over analysis on my part, but her clenching her fists while being held by "S-U-D" and showing hesitation rather than fear leads me to believe this is the case) during their initial encounter with "Something Unto Death", her identity as Sam being a well kept secret and one she is not eager to reveal to just anyone, her "death" by "Something Unto Death" bringing the MC to tears and causing them to become noticeably crestfallen, even to the point of getting snippy with Acheron. In the finale of 2.1 and beginning of 2.2, past the initial shock of Sam, they are understanding of Firefly's secrecy and even trust her when she mentions her "death" leading to her discovery of Dreamflux Reef and the secrets of the dream. In this same scene they even describe the MCs inner thoughts with the scene stating "Innumerable voices resonated through the symphony of the memoria, roaring like thunder, and among them, one echo stood out with exceptional clarity, you knew it came from the girl beside you, your hearts beating to the same rhythm, peaceful, and even more peaceful.". Of course there were also the two “dates” between the MC and Firefly. To a character with ELS, every moment spent out of her medical cabin is precious, and she chooses to spend those moments with the MC as Firefly, rather than Sam, a choice that can be seen as unnecessary past her initial purpose on Penacony with Elio's script, and during the second "date", despite the urgency of the situation and Firefly herself reminding the MC of their timer, she still goofs off with them during the different trials. Capping this off is her "unwavering dedication", which is what allowed Acheron and the others to find the MC after Ena's dream.
Now, I didn't write this massive text wall just to promote the MC x Firefly ship, instead I want to draw your attention specifically to the bond they've developed. Despite the short amount of time spent together, it's quite obvious that Mihoyo went out of their way to emphasize this connection. I know many people were disappointed with the scenes between the two in 2.2, specifically in regards to them MC not showing the desired reaction at the reveal of Firefly not only being alive, but also her identity as Sam. Though I too expected something more, I believe this was intentional on Hoyo's part as they are most likely saving the heart to heart for the one on one scene in 2.3. Having said all of this, I want you to ask yourself, what was the point of all of this? The other Stellaron Hunters have gotten nowhere near this amount of screentime or specifically developed such a strong bond with the MC, in fact, not even other characters like March, Dan Heng, Himeko or Welt are this close to the MC. Why write in a fake out death at all if this character wasn't important? Purely for shock factor? Why bother making her consistently close to the MC? (Most characters get a single patch to really interact with the MC, upon the release of 2.3, that would mark her third patch being relevant to the plot and interacting with the MC. This is a recurring thing across multiple Hoyoverse titles, think of Ayaka from Genshin as a prime example, a character which has largely fallen to the wayside and being relegated as a side character after her single patch).
The people at Mihoyo aren't amateur storytellers like some think they are, and I believe everything they've done is to make this connection seem all the more important for one reason. Firefly is going to join the express, her bond with the Trailblazer serving as the catalyst. She's said herself that she respects the Trailblaze and has even found herself resonating with their ideals. The events of 2.2 serve as evidence of this, with her being able to see Clockie (Though not much is known about him, it seems that as a Trailblaze entity, he is only able to be seen by those with a connection to the Trailblaze), and standing side by side with the Astral Express in their battle of beliefs against Sunday. Though I believe the trailblaze aspect plays a large choice, I'd also like to take a look at her script from Elio, which I believe to be a major piece of the puzzle. The script states she will experience three deaths on Penacony. Some people may argue that she has already experienced those three with the second being when she traveled with the MC to Dreamflux Reef and the third being related to what Acheron mentions at the end of 2.2. I don't believe traveling to Dreamflux Reef counts towards that death tally as it would actually make it four deaths, seeing as when she was first killed she awoke in her medical cabin, then later traveled to Dreamflux Reef. Following this, it's reasonable to say she's only experienced two so far, the initial death from being stabbed and from Acheron. I believe this third death is not a literal one. Death has a multitude of meanings beyond just dying/passing away. Using the Tarot as an example, death can also be used to describe a great change. I propose that this great change is the "death" of Stellaron Hunter Sam. Looking at the playable version of Firefly, an obvious change has taken place, that being the green energy that leaks out from within and the manifestation of Firefly's blades which could be seen as Firefly establishing more of herself within the identity of SAM. Beyond the changes to the SAM suit itself, I find it a little odd that they deliberately have Firefly walk around as herself in the overworld, rather than the suit, but I concede that this choice could just be so people can see the waifu that they pulled and might have no real significance. All of this is information that has already been revealed to us, whether directly through the events of the story, or the leaked gameplay of Firefly. Next I would like to discuss leaks that support this idea of Firefly joining the AE crew.
Many people believe that after the events of 2.3, the MC and Firefly will part ways, with Firefly going back to the Stellaron Hunters for a few planets. I don't believe this to be the case for two main reasons, the first being the new event in 2.3 and the second being the new BP icons. The event is said to be one in which we play games with Firefly, March, and Silverwolf, with Silverwolf mentioning that she could never get Firefly to play games with her, but Firefly accepts this time around because she is asked by the MC. Now, don't you find this lineup kind of strange? Specifically the presence of March 7th. If Firefly was departing Penacony after the story of 2.3, why would she show up in an event with the MC and March? It's not as if events in Star Rail aren't canon either, so it doesn't make sense for Firefly to be there if we are assuming that she is leaving during the epilogue of 2.3. I believe this is supported by her new BP icon in which she can be seen wearing a red, black, and gold outfit. These are exactly the colors of the express and other express members have icons which share this same color scheme. Even Sam's icon has red that is normally not present on his design. The description for the icon also states Firefly: Visionary, Firefly stepping forwards into the future "There is only one destiny, but I still have the right to make my choice". Sam's icon follows a similar format being titled Visionary and mentioning stepping forward into the future, with his quote stating "I will fulfill SAM's mission and see a new future". Of course BP icons don't have to mean anything and in most cases are just the characters in a different outfit, but doesn't this seem like a really strange choice? Firefly doesn't have red as part of her color scheme, so putting her in an outfit that is explicitly AE colors seems like a deliberate choice, not to mention the fact that the icon references her stepping forward into the future, or if you want to look at another way, blazing a trail to her new future. In addition to this, the word "Choice" has significance, especially if we have this Astral Express outfit to set the context. A stellaron hunter knows exactly how meaningless their choices are, yet Firefly is the only one who is defiant in regards to the script and her predetermined end. Not just her own end, but even in the missions she is given, she chooses to do things that can be seen as futile like actively choosing to not read certain parts of the script as to remain ignorant and potentially influence said script, even if the predetermined outcome inevitably comes to pass despite her "obstruction". With all of this it seems like a no brainer that she would join the group that is all about making your own choices, helping the people you want to help, and doing the things you want to do, not to mention the resources she would have access to in terms of potentially curing her illness as a member of the Astral Express, a respected group with many powerful allies and connections willing to assist, versus being in a criminal organization where she follows a script that may not have the ending she wants.
I know I just did a whole lot of yapping so I appreciate anyone taking the time to read the theories and speculations of a delusional fan huffing way too much copium. I truly believe there is merit to what I’m saying, but only time will tell if I hit the mark or if I should never come up with a theory again. Having said all that, I’d love to hear from the community what you all think about this, even if it’s in opposition to what I’m saying.
