2024.05.15 20:10 namitanathani Rant
So I came to India to meet my dad, He collapsed, was resuscitated, has chronic heart failure with no surgical interventions so far, I e come back after a really long time, had this not happened I would have never wanted to come to this town, not only am I looking after dad, talking to all relatives, trying to recover his defaults, managing his finances, talking to lawyers, notary people , going to corporation, getting almost all legal documentation sorted for which dad always procrastinated, all his different bank accounts, making sure there is a nominee, his stock market, getting a registered will done , negotiating with a partner who is almost occupying 1400 Sq feet area for peanuts and talking to CA, so that my parents can sort their life out, I cried once amongst all this in front of my mom which made her anxious for next 2 days, I don’t know what am I doing, it’s too much to handle, I can’t see my dad like this and as angry as I am at all wrong financial decisions he has take. I can’t tell him anything, I can’t tell anyone anything, I have to be strong and I am overwhelmed beyond my capacity. I don’t want anything to happen to my dad, I can’t even fly him out in this condition, some relatives have really come through, I cry when I am alone, and put an outburst here, I am exhausted and burnt out emotionally and physically and mentally. I Wish my parents could actually borrow some years out of my life. Just when I felt accomplished enough, this happened, why did this happen? Idk if you can’t make my life easier, maybe give me little more strength god, cause this feels beyond me. Thy daughter.

2024.05.15 19:57 Easy_Money_ 3x miles on rent paid with the Alaska Visa is apparently live
According to One Mile at a Time and View from the Wing, this feature announced in March is now rolling out. Bilt has also removed references to “in the future” on its website. I have the Alaska Visa and MVP Gold status and haven’t seen anything from the Bank of America or AS side confirming this is live. The Bilt UI doesn’t indicate that there’s any earning bonus with this card, which just shows up as a BofA Visa Signature. I’ll test it on June 1 but interested to hear if anyone else has proof that this is going to work
Reminder that this includes a 3% transaction fee, so you’re effectively converting cash to miles. If you have >$500 in a BofA savings account, you get 3.3x miles; combined with the EQM bonus for spend and the Companion Pass targets, I come out ahead but not everyone will

2024.05.15 19:36 ViajeraFrustrada Notarization/Authentication Question
Hoping someone here can help me.
I need a document notarized and apostilled for work. Of course since I’m part of corporate America I was notified today that the document was due a week ago and I need to get it done ASAP.
I don’t have much of a desire to drive myself down to RVA to get this thing done so my question is:
As a Virginia resident, can I drive to DC to get my document notarized there and proceed to get their apostille? Or do I need to do it through Va offices?

2024.05.15 19:23 PhotographClear5686 I (29M) need advice on what to do about my mom
Hi all,
Hopefully this falls under the umbrella of what is acceptable to post here. There are many elements to this but it's come to a head emotionally for me so I figured I'd come here to seek out anybody with advice and/or shared experiences.
In short, my single mom (60+) has been a gambling addict for as long as I remember. While growing up, she was supportive in some ways, but would often neglect me to gamble. She quit for a short period and then went right back to it. From the time I had a bank account (maybe 13 or 14), she would constantly borrow my money or pawn my possessions to get money to gamble. This created a lot of depression/anxiety growing up which still exists in varying degrees to this day and has made our relationship strained. It's never been outwardly hostile or argumentative, but I really feel no desire to get close to her after getting burned over and over. Honestly, it's hard for me to even feel like I love her.
Fast forward to now, I'm recently separated from my ex (divorce in progress - that hasn't been too messy all things considered thankfully but some of our problems definitely stemmed from the habits/behaviors I picked up growing up) and have finally gotten a stable job after years of being in a career path that didn't offer me any financial stability. This was a huge detriment to my mental health since my environment growing up was so financially unstable despite my mom always having a good corporate job - I don't know exactly how much she made, but by the time she left that job must've been making close to or around six figures in a medium-cost-of-living area and still declared bankruptcy at some point when I was young.
She held off for a while, but now that she KNOWS I have a job, she's right back to asking me for money - hundreds of dollars at a time. She essentially always gives it back to me with some interest for the trouble, but I can't help feel that she put on a face of wanting to be supportive and help out when I was splitting with my ex and moving cross country for my new job just so I could go back to being the piggy bank for her. She constantly has a "woe is me" attitude about everything wrong with her life even though, as far as I can tell, essentially all of those problems stem from her addiction and she refuses to explicitly acknowledge or deal with that. I know addiction is complex but I'm feeling less and less motivated to deal with someone who refuses to get their shit together.
This is all to say that, with my mom getting up there in age somewhat, I can't decide if I need to be the bigger person and babysit her to stop gambling and stop lending her money which enables her, or if I honestly just want to cut her off. I can't help but think that maybe I'll regret it later on when she passes, but while it wasn't all bad growing up, the track record stems towards the negative and I feel a lot of resentment about how she treated and continues to treat me. When she started asking for money again, it welled up so many anxious feelings from my childhood that had been suppressed and I just shut down any emotional engagement that I could possibly muster up with her.
Happy to give more context but hopefully that gives a decent picture of where I'm at. Thanks for any thoughts.

2024.05.15 19:18 8ersgonna8 Bigger companies for international cv?
Howdy!
The sub rules was a bit unclear so please let me know if I should delete this post.
Long story short: I'm a seasoned developer with roughly 7 years of experience in the Nordics. Mostly had 1-2 year stints in both small and bigger companies (banks,telecom,Klarna,H&M, etc.). Made the switch to devops/sre position a few years ago and now have a pretty good grasp on everything from dev to ops and public cloud, jack of all trades would be a good description. I have worked on both legacy and bleeding edge tech so far and obviously prefer bleeding edge over legacy. Also prefer many responsibilities/hats rather than team silos like you see in corporate environments. Not to mention autonomy over bureaucratic environments.
BUT, bleeding edge usually means small/local, low impact projects where employee count is <100. If I break production it wouldn’t have a severe consequence, the scale is just not there (for now).
My ambition is to build a cv/career that will be interesting overseas and I’m not getting that attention as of now. It’s mainly local startups/scale ups. Sometimes in London or Amsterdam.
Should I bite the bullet and move to something bigger for brand name recognition? If so which Nordic companies?
Tldr: built good knowledge in small companies. Want to move overseas. Should I move to big tech/mnc?

2024.05.15 19:11 azmat_system $CLOV __ SaaS is FINALLY Coming in the not too distant future and just as we thought, the market is HUGE! Retail Investors have been waiting for this to happen for a very long time!
https://www.linkedin.com/posts/toyand_im-at-the-bank-of-america-healthcare-conference-activity-7196533524701552640-u_6P?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_ios
According to Andrew Toy speaking at the Bank of America Healthcare conference:
· Aetna and Humana are being very clear right now that they need to prioritize margin and profit restoration in the next few years and they will slow growth and even shrink in order to do that.
· The care and network management capabilities they do have also aren’t agile enough to react to the many MA program changes that have come down recently - this is why there’s a multi-year path to recovery.
· We at Clover however do have the necessary tools. This is the world for which we built Clover Assistant technology.
· We believe there is a huge opportunity to bring the power of the CA platform to providers to use with any payor.
· Clover could grow by allowing CA providers to use CA for any payor, and even bring CA to markets where we don’t have Medicare Advantage plan.
· It would likely have much lower per-life customer acquisition cost than the Medicare Advantage plan and physicians could use the same tool for all their MA patients.
· Clover aims to support per member per month (PMPM) SaaS-like recurring revenue models.

2024.05.15 18:58 hidayah-college Decoding MEC vs. CEC: Navigating the Educational Landscape

But which one holds the key to your future?
Exploring the Terrain: Understanding MEC and CEC

CEC: Cultivating Commerce and Civic Leaders
CEC courses pave the way for careers that blend commerce expertise with an understanding of civic structures. Graduates find themselves equipped to navigate the realms of commerce, public administration, law, and advocacy. They play pivotal roles in steering corporate enterprises towards success, advocating for policy reforms, and championing ethical business practices.

2024.05.15 18:52 Midwesternboot Preparing to face backlash for assisted suicide
I’m young, I’ve lived an active life, made it out of poverty in a small town, graduate student, worked well in corporate America, I have great friends, supportive family…
All of that and I’ve been blessed to be diagnosed (late) with an incurable disease and disorders that impact every aspect of my life.
I’ve been to more doctors at age 26 than most people have in their life time. The medical system in my state is terrible, I am risking homelessness, I cannot work enough to afford basic needs due to my medical conditions, massive amounts of debt that I will never be able to pay, no children, my quality of life has tremendously declined, I won’t cure cancer or go to mars (sorry), I cannot afford recommended treatment that may or may not work, and so it goes…
I know that life really has no meaning and am considering medically assisted suicide because of my incurable condition.
The journey will not be easy. I will be bombarded with statements that “life is so beautiful” “it will get better” “what about your family” “what about your dreams”?
How do you respond to those who don’t “believe in” suicide, and strongly discourage it?

2024.05.15 18:47 AdministrativeTie630 have lost hella self esteem and am losing steam quickly drained looking for work in the uk
M22 looking for retail, warehouse, admin, graduate among paralegal and other jobs through company websites indeed, reed, etc after recently completing uni (graduating after receiving final grade in September of this year) in BA (Hons) Criminology, have applied to 150-175 jobs in the past 2 weeks and have gotten 6 interviews all were rejections, i feel like i fucked those up though as I have Asperger's and the process of applying for jobs, form filling, wanking off (figuratively) to the company in the surveys on the sites and emails and generally ritually exterminating brain cells and motivation/excitement to get a job at all at this shit most days a week, 5-6 of 7.
The most recent application was to an Aldi in my area within an easily commutable distance 40 min walk or 20 min cycle, for an shop floor assistant, general retail shebang stacking shelves, cleaning, manual handling in back warehouse till work etc, all shit I've done before in previous employment for Sainbury's and nights at a Morrison's petrol station.
The interview was 15 mins long, which was promised in their invitation email, the manager was approachable and likable, came across very human through the words he chose and the fact he said at the start he could go through my CV, which he had next to him open on his laptop, and ask bland corporate questions, but that he much prefers getting to know the person he has to consider hiring -- fully agree with this one was very relieved to hear that. He then went on to ask me to describe myself and my hobbies, to which I told him I'm into RPGs, mainly SRPGs because the numbers game is very appealing, levelling up separate units and turn-based combat and that I like marine biology.
He responds with interest and deepens with is own insight on Vidya and he says he loves travelling that he went to Japan this year and that he learns the culture of the places he goes to act respectfully to locals and speak their language -- again totally agree that this should be the bare minimum standard for travelling somewhere, especially poignant if you're interacting with the culture or the locals. I ask him where else he plans to travel this year and he says South America, he's planning on exploring the mountain range there and that he dislikes touristy areas.
At this point, I'm totally relaxed to be talking with a real person. His next question is "What specifically do you think this role will entail, given your experience in retail already, and can you give examples of skills you have learned from your previous work that can be applied at our store?", and I do just that. He remarked that I had "hit the nail on the head", again thinking well shit this is going great, feeling so hopeful and happy that the job search might finally be over, especially having the chance to work under this manager who gets how it is? is the best way I can describe the feeling.
He then asked his final questions on the speed of the work (told him I prefer working quickly and always having something to do, having the flexibility to switch between departments as and when needed), how many hours I'd be looking to get (advertised hours were part-time, but due to current circumstances and an 88% availability needs improvement checkmark on a board in the staff room, I said I'd be happy with 35-40hrs) and finished with asking how I have dealt with an angry customer before (like every angry customer, take whatever they say, find the root cause of the issue, resolve, if you can't escalate). Shook hands, said our goodbyes at the end of the 15 mins and left, go home feeling confident and happy. 2 days later receive an email from Aldi, rejection --their reasoning was ol reliable: too many applicants can't give a real reason for your rejection you daft cunt.
Spent 3 hours today looking for jobs, barely motivated to move the mouse and type the same thing 8 million more times for entry level jobs. I feel like no matter how hard I try and no matter what I do to my CV, my appearance and trying to mask that it always crumbles away. Why is this the biggest fucking part of being an adult? Why is it done this way? What is the point of doing any of this dogshit apply intervew fail cycle worth? Is this the only way to go about doing this shit? How do you stay sane and confident and happy through this process?
I just want to scream or cry or die or something that isnt this insane ridiculous bullshit monotonous task until another job comes around again, then doing it again when I can't take how the workplace is like with every other job I've had before.
I have attached my CV with sensitive details removed, if anyone would be able to help me rewrite or help with pointers, anecdotes, advice, criticism anything and everything to help this monkey on a rock out. Sorry for the long ass post. tl;dr help with CV blz

 | https://preview.redd.it/6qmo55ik4m0d1.png?width=3500&format=png&auto=webp&s=cefa52eadad6b0a196c2b28c7cdfe165b8c46bb5 submitted by Then_Marionberry_259 to Treaty_Creek [link] [comments] VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / May 15, 2024 / Alta Copper Corp. (TSX:ATCU)(OTCQX:ATCUF)(BVL:ATCU) ("Alta Copper" or "the Company") is pleased to announce attractive economics results from the 2024 Optimized Preliminary Economic Assessment ("2024 PEA") at its 100% owned Cañariaco Project ("Cañariaco" or the "Project"), a world class porphyry copper project, located 700 km northwest of Lima. The 2024 PEA has been prepared by Ausenco Engineering Canada ULC ("Ausenco"), AGP Mining Consultants Inc. ("AGP") and Whittle Consulting Pty. Ltd., ("Whittle"), respectively leading international engineering and mining consultancy firms. All values contained in this press release are reported in US dollars. Cañariaco 2024 PEA Highlights
An independent technical report for the 2024 PEA,prepared in accordance with NI 43-101,will be available under the Company's SEDAR+ profile and website on or before June 7, 2024. For readers to fully understand the information in this news release, they should read the technical report in its entirety when it is available, including all qualifications, assumptions, exclusions and risks. The technical report is intended to be read in its entirety and sections should not be read or relied upon out of context. An updated Corporate Presentation will be available on the Company's website at www.altacopper.com Giulio T. Bonifacio, Executive Chair, commented "We are extremely pleased with our 2024 PEA which is well advanced as we have clearly benefited from several previous engineering studies and a wealth of experience from our external international engineering firms. This PEA will prove of great value as we advance Alta Copper to the next stage. The PEA shows that Cañariaco is clearly a Tier 1 asset that provides a long-life, large-scale copper project producing annual average copper of 158,000 tonnes per year in the first 10 years. The Cañariaco project is economically robust with considerable leverage to increasing copper prices while also possessing considerable upside through resource expansion drilling with numerous high priority drill targets identified to date at Norte, Sur and the undrilled Quebrada Verde porphyry target". Table 1 - Summary of Economic Results https://preview.redd.it/qi0ntxkk4m0d1.png?width=720&format=png&auto=webp&s=3cc23d0ea10e1dd826da585c0db0fe9d3a07b5ce Notes (1) Copper contributes 88% of the net revenue with the balance of 12% from gold silver credits in copper concentrate. (2) For this analysis Gold is US$1,850/oz and Sliver is US$23/oz and remain constant with only the Copper price changing. (3) From Commencement of Operations. (4) Cash Costs consist of mining, processing, site G&A, off-site treatment and refining, transport, and royalties net of by-product credits (Au & Ag). (5) AISC consists of Cash Costs plus sustaining capital and closure costs. NPV Sensitivities The sensitivity analysis provides a range of outcomes for the Project when the key parameters vary from their base-case values. The NPV estimate is most sensitive to changes of metal prices, resource grade, overall operating costs and capital costs as illustrated in Figure 1 and 2. The After-tax NPV ranges from US$2,054 billion to US$4,011 billion as the applied Copper price varies from US$3.85/lb Cu to $5.00/lb Cu.

Current access from Chiclayo to the Cañariaco Project is 150 km along a paved road followed by secondary gravel roads. The project area covers moderate elevations ranging from 2,200 to 3,600 metres ("m") above sea level. The copper deposits are situated on the eastern side of the continental divide and infrastructure will be on the top as well as both western and eastern sides of the divide. The topography varies from steep incised valleys at lower elevations to open grassy highlands at upper elevations. There is sufficient suitable land available within the concessions and close to the mining areas for the process plant, ancillary infrastructure and comingled waste rock and dry stack tailings facility. The 2024 PEA contemplates that Cañariaco would be mined using conventional open pit mining equipment followed by crushing, SAG/ball mill grinding and flotation recovery of copper, gold and silver to a copper concentrate. Cañariaco is estimated to have relatively low project capital and operating costs due to proximity to infrastructure and favourable natural setting with key features as follows:
Importantly, the Cañariaco project has low capital intensity when compared to several other global copper projects currently in the development stage. Key project attributes that reduce the capital cost include the following:
https://preview.redd.it/zjf7xopk4m0d1.jpg?width=1562&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7520ace4634d48e5892cbee9c941748abbddbb52 Sustainable and Responsible Mining The project development concept has utilized best practice technologies and will benefit from several existing external factors which will assist in making Cañariaco a very responsible, desirable and sustainable project. The application of filtered dry stack tailings combined with comingled waste rock storage maximizes the recycling of process water and significantly reduces freshwater requirements. In addition, this technology eliminates the need for wet tailings storage and a major tailing retainment structure and reduces associated seismic risk. Electrical power in Northern Peru is generated predominantly by hydro which is the preferred power source from ecological and carbon emissions perspectives. Electric powered overland belt conveyors, rather than haul trucks, will transport most of the mill feed and waste rock from the mining areas to the plant as well as the comingled waste and dry stack tailings facility thereby reducing fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. The project is located in a sparsely populated region and at elevations above major agricultural zones. Capital, Sustaining and Operating Costs The initial capital, expensed over the first four years of the Project, amounts to $2.2 billion. The sustaining capital over the remainder of LOM amounts to $526 million. Closure costs are estimated at $216 million. The project financial model incorporates a lease strategy for the purchase of the initial mining equipment whereby 20% of the mining fleet cost is capitalized and the remainder is carried as operating cost. Sustaining costs include construction of a crusher at the Sur deposit and related conveyor system to connect with the primary overland conveyor in year 16 prior to the start of mining operations at Sur. A breakdown of capital cost is presented in the table 3 below: Table 3 - Capital Cost Summary https://preview.redd.it/qu0vgkqk4m0d1.png?width=720&format=png&auto=webp&s=f51de5948abd09f3591e4f79fd3196061dc170b0 Table 4 - Life of Mine Operating Costs Summary https://preview.redd.it/lpyzxjrk4m0d1.png?width=720&format=png&auto=webp&s=ed405ead0db528a06a2f00624c356dcf53c5c112
Alta Copper has been active in the Cañariaco area since 2004 and since that time has developed and established a wide range of relationships with a corporate policy of respect, shared involvement and value, mutual benefit and transparency. Communications with the local communities and public authorities at all levels continues to ensure that key stakeholders are aware of the Cañariaco project status and plans, and that the Company responds to community concerns and requests. Mining The 2024 PEAis based on open pit mining methods with conventional drilling,blasting and material loading with large electric shovels for excavation and haulage to the primary crusher using large capacity haul trucks. Independent and dedicated high-capacity electric conveyor systems will transport plant feed from the primary crusher to the process plant and waste to the comingled waste and dry stack tailings facility. Over the life of the Cañariaco mine, two separate deposits: Cañariaco Norte ("Norte") and Cañariaco Sur ("Sur") will be mined in separate pits, with the bulk of the plant feed coming from Norte. Mining will commence in the Norte pit which will provide 100% of the process plant feed until year 16 at which point mining operations will commence at Sur. Years 17 through 25 will see mining taking place in both Norte and Sur with variable mining rates while maintaining total annual production of 43.8 million tonnes. From year 26 through end of mine life all mining will take place in Sur. The Cañariaco open pit mining operations will have a mine life of 27 years, operating 365 days a year with a life of mine strip ratio of 1.33:1 (including pre-stripping). The mine production plan is based on mining a total of 2.72 billion tonnes of material, comprised of 1.176 billion tonnes of plant feed and 1.548 billion tonnes of waste rock over the life of the mine. Mining operations will supply the process plant at 120,000 tonnes per day or 43.8 million tonnes per annum. During the life of mine operation, annual cash-flow will vary due to annual and forecast variations in head grade, strip ratio and metal recoveries. The major mining equipment fleet will include nine (9) blast hole drills, five (5) 38 m3 electric shovels, two (2) 33 m3 front end loaders and thirty-eight (38) 290 tonne capacity haul trucks. A fleet of smaller loaders and trucks will be utilized for early mine access development and initial pre-stripping. Electric shovel major maintenance and mobile equipment replacement are carried in the mining costs. The moderate altitude of the Project avoids the need for de-rating of mine haul truck drive systems. Whittle Consulting's Mine Plan Optimization A key part of the mining plan development for this 2024 PEA included comprehensive mine plan optimization analysis by Whittle. This analysis includes a very detailed assessment of metal grades, metal prices, metal recoveries, mining and processing costs throughout the deposit, and by applying advanced computational analysis, including by the use of Whittle's proprietary Prober-E software, develops an optimized mining plan to maximize the net economic value of the mining operation. A key aspect of this mine planning strategy is that it brings forward cash flow and optimizes the net present value of the deposit. This approach involves advanced pit phasing techniques and takes advantage of variable mining cutoff grades, plant feed stockpiling and blending strategies during the life of the mine plan. Metallurgy and Processing The Cañariaco project comprises two copper-gold-silver porphyry deposits where the main copper species are primarily sulphides, predominantly chalcopyrite with lesser amounts of bornite and chalcocite. The Sur deposit also contains molybdenum however the levels did not warrant recovery for this 2024 PEA. Extensive metallurgical testwork programs on samples from Norte have been completed over previous years, providing an extensive metallurgical database for Norte. Resource development at Sur is at a much earlier stage than Norte and accordingly the metallurgical testwork completed for Sur is preliminary. However, the testwork results received to date from Sur are very good and comparable to the results for Norte confirming the amenability of conventional flotation recovery for both Norte and Sur. The key metallurgical design parameters applied for process design in the 2024 PEA are as follows:
Waste and Tailings Handling The Cañariaco process flowsheet has included Comingled Dry Stack tailing technology for waste rock and tailings placement. This technology is considered as "Best Practice" and is seeing more application within the global mining industry. The technology offers three key benefits:

Cautionary Note to US Investors We advise U.S. investors that this news release uses terms defined in the 2014 edition of the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM) "CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves", as incorporated by reference in Canadian National Instrument 43-101 "Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects", for reporting of mineral resource estimates. These Canadian standards, including NI 43-101, differ from the requirements of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as set forth in the mining disclosure rules under Regulation S-K 1300. Regulation S-K 1300 uses the same terminology for mineral resources, but the definitions are not identical to NI 43-101 and CIM Definition Standards. Regulation S-K 1300 uses the term "initial assessment" for an evaluation of potential project economics based on mineral resources. This study type has some similarities to a Preliminary Economic Assessment, but the definition and content requirements of an initial assessment are not identical to the definition and content requirements for a PEA under NI 43-101.

2024.05.15 17:51 Zealousideal_Oven122 Using corporate card in NYC
Pure personal anecdote that I noticed while paying at restaurant using corporate card in SoHo. Twice, the server would not give me the terminal, instead they would position it in front of their belly. I’m guess so that I feel less comfortable entering a manual amount. I was with someone who paid with their personal credit card and they were given the cc terminal without the direct hovering. The quick tip options were 22%, 25% and 28% for the after tax total. I guess they are just banking on people going all out on corporate cards.

Today the White House announced tariffs on certain products imported from China, including steel and aluminum products, semiconductors, electric vehicles, batteries and battery components, solar cells, ship-to-shore cranes, syringes and needles, and certain personal protective equipment (or PPE). According to the White House, these higher tariffs are designed “to protect American workers and businesses from China’s unfair trade practices.” Tariffs are essentially taxes on imported goods, and altogether the tariff hikes cover about $18 billion in imported goods.
In 2018, Trump abruptly ended the economic era based on the idea that free trade benefited the global economy by putting tariffs of 25% on a wide range of foreign made goods. This was a cap to a set of ideas that had been sputtering for a while as industries moved to countries with cheaper labor, feeding the popular discontent Trump tapped into. Trump claimed that other countries would pay his tariffs, but tariffs are actually paid by Americans, not foreign countries, and his have cost Americans more than $230 billion. Half of that has come in under the Biden administration.
Trump’s tariffs also actually cost jobs, but they were very popular politically. A January 2024 National Bureau of Economic Research working paper by David Autor, Anne Beck, David Dorn, and Gordon H. Hanson established that the trade war of 2018–2019 hurt the U.S. heartland but actually helped Trump’s reelection campaign. “Residents of regions more exposed to import tariffs became less likely to identify as Democrats, more likely to vote to reelect Donald Trump in 2020, and more likely to elect Republicans to Congress,” they discovered.
Now Trump is saying, that if elected, he will impose a 10% tariff on everything imported into the United States, with a 60% tariff on anything from China and a 100% tariff on any cars made outside the U.S.
In contrast, the administration’s new tariffs are aimed only at China, and only at industries already growing in the U.S., especially semiconductors. Tariffs will rise to 50% on semiconductors and solar cells, 100% on electric vehicles, and 25% on batteries, a hike that will help the Big Three automakers who agreed to union demands in newly opened battery factories, as well as their United Auto Workers workforce. “I’m determined that the future of electric vehicles be made in America by union workers. Period,” Biden said.
The administration says the tariffs are a response to China’s unfair trade practices, and such tariffs are popular in the manufacturing belt of Michigan, Wisconsin, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. Democratic senators from that region have asked Biden to maintain or increase tariffs on Chinese imports after “[g]enerations of free trade agreements that prioritize multinational corporations have devasted our communities, harmed our economy, and crippled our job market.”
In other economic news, a new rule capping credit card late fees at $8, about a quarter of what they are now, was supposed to go into effect today, but on Friday a federal judge in Texas blocked the rule. The new cap was set by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), the brainchild of Massachusetts Democratic senator Elizabeth Warren, and was part of the Biden administration’s crackdown on “junk fees.”
The U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the American Bankers Association sued to stop the rule from taking effect, and U.S. District Judge Mark Pittman, appointed by Trump, issued a preliminary injunction against it. His reasoning draws from an argument advanced by the far-right Fifth Circuit, which oversees Texas, Mississippi, and Louisiana, arguing that the CFPB itself is unconstitutional because of its funding structure. "Consequently, any regulations promulgated under that regime are likely unconstitutional as well," Pittman wrote.
On Friday, major airlines, including American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, United Airlines, JetBlue Airways, Hawaiian Airlines, and Alaska Airlines—but not Southwest Airlines—sued the U.S. Department of Transportation over its new rule that requires the airlines disclose their fees, such as for checking bags, upfront to consumers. The department says consumers are overpaying by $543 million a year in unexpected fees.
The airlines say that the rule will confuse consumers and that its “attempt to regulate private business operations in a thriving marketplace is beyond its authority.”
The other big story of the day is the continuing attempt of the MAGA Republicans to overturn our democratic system.
This morning, House speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA), second in line for the presidency and sworn to uphold the Constitution, left his post in Washington, D.C., to appear with former president Trump at his trial for falsifying business records to deceive voters before the 2016 election. The House was due to consider the final passage of the crucially important Federal Aviation Authority Reauthorization Act, but Johnson chose instead to show up to do the work the judge’s gag order means Trump cannot do himself, attacking key witness Michael Cohen, Trump’s former fixer. Johnson described Cohen as “clearly on a mission for personal revenge” and, citing his “history of perjury,” said that “[n]o one should believe a word he says in there.”
“I do have a lot of surrogates,” Trump boasted this morning, “and they are speaking very beautifully.” Senator Tommy Tuberville (R-AL), who was also at the trial this morning, later said on Newsmax that they had indeed gone to “overcome this gag order.”
Johnson went on to call the trial “corrupt” and say “this ridiculous prosecution…is not about justice. It’s all about politics.” He left without taking questions. Meg Kinnard of the Associated Press called out the moment as “a remarkable moment in modern American politics: The House speaker turning his Republican Party against the federal and state legal systems that are foundational to the U.S. government and a cornerstone of democracy.”
Peter Eisler, Ned Parker, and Joseph Tanfani of Reuters explained today how those attacks on our judiciary are sparking widespread calls for violence against judges, with social media posters in echo chambers goading each other into ever more extreme statements. According to her lawyer, Stephanie Clifford, also known as Stormy Daniels, wore a bullet-proof vest as she came and went from court, an uncanny echo of the precautions necessary in mob trials.
In a different attack on our constitutional system, House Republicans are trying to replace the administration’s foreign policy with their own. Over the weekend, they introduced a bill to force President Biden to send offensive weapons to Israel for its invasion of Rafah, overruling the administration’s decision to withhold a shipment of 2,000-pound and 500-pound bombs after Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced his government would invade Rafah despite strong opposition from the Biden administration.
White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters: “We strongly, strongly oppose attempts to constrain the president’s ability to deploy a U.S. security assistance consistent with U.S. foreign policy and national security objectives.”
The Constitution establishes that the executive branch manages foreign affairs, and until 2015 it was an established practice that politics stopped at the water’s edge, meaning that Congress quarreled with the administration at home but the two presented a united front in foreign affairs. That practice ended in March 2015, when 47 Republican senators, led by freshman Arkansas senator Tom Cotton, wrote a letter to Iran’s leaders warning that they would not honor any agreement Iran reached with the Obama administration over its development of nuclear weapons.
The Obama administration did end up negotiating the July 2015 Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action with Iran and several world powers, under which Iran agreed to restrict its nuclear development and allow inspections in exchange for relief from economic sanctions. In 2018 the extremist Republicans got their way when Trump withdrew the U.S. from the deal, largely collapsing it, after which Iran resumed its expansion of the nuclear enrichment program it had stopped under the agreement.
Now extremists in the House are trying to run foreign policy on their own. The costs of that usurpation of power are clear in Niger, formerly a key U.S. ally in the counterterrorism effort in West Africa. The new prime minister of Niger, Ali Mahaman Lamine Zeine, whose party took power after a coup d’état threw out Niger’s democratically elected president, defended his country’s turn away from the U.S. and toward Russia in an interview with Rachel Chason of the Washington Post. Recalling the House’s six month delay in passing the national security supplemental bill, he said: “We have seen what the United States will do to defend its allies, because we have seen Ukraine and Israel.”

2024.05.15 17:41 como365 Food Bank Market embodies new trends in battling hunger
 | It takes more than food to end hunger. submitted by como365 to columbiamo [link] [comments] That’s the core belief of Katie Martin, founder and CEO of More Than Food Consulting. Martin has dedicated three decades to research, consulting and organizing with food banks, pantries and community organizations to address hunger at its root causes. “Food insecurity is rooted in poverty and systemic injustices that make it difficult for certain groups of people to be able to thrive,” Martin said. Martin, who is based in Connecticut and works with food banks nationwide, advocates for food banks and pantries where those in need not only have access to healthier foods but also have the freedom to choose their own items, as well as encouraging organizations to include wraparound services such as health care and nutrition education. In Columbia, this innovative model exists within The Food Bank Market, part of the Food Bank for Central and Northeast Missouri. Open since November, The Food Bank Market goes beyond distributing food. The recently built, multi-million dollar location has a grocery store-like structure. Those who use the service, whom The Food Bank Market refers to as “neighbors,” have the freedom to choose any item from a wide selection of food groups based on the size of their household. Additionally, the market partners with various organizations like Chance for Children, the Spay and Neuter Project and Compass Health to provide health care, nutrition classes and aid in navigating resources. “Food insecurity doesn’t happen in a bubble, and we know that when people are experiencing need for food, they’re probably experiencing need for other things as well,” said Katie Adkins, director of communications for the Food Bank for Central and Northeast Missouri. “So we’re really lucky in that we have that space that can host some of those additional services.” Through its newly created resource navigator, the Food Bank Market works to connect neighbors with services not provided on-site. “If we have a neighbor who comes in and notes that they’re having challenges getting fresh nutritious food for their family, but they’re also having a hard time with transportation or they’re having a hard time getting diapers for their baby, our resource navigator can help them find different resources for each of those challenges that they might be facing,” Adkins said. Martin said at least one other city has a model similar to the Food Bank Market, and others may be following. In Ohio, the Greater Cleveland Food Bank’s Community Resource Center connects the food bank with 14 non-profit partners, ranging from mobile aid to career counseling to affordable housing, to create a “one-stop shop” that tackles the root causes of food insecurity, according to its website. The root causes of hunger are perpetuated by inadequate wages, underemployment and disinvestment in certain communities, said Alexandra Ashbrook, director of WIC and Root Causes for the Food Research and Action Center based in Washington, D.C. Particularly, Black, Latino and Native American families face the most disparity as “they may be experiencing multiple root causes at the same time,” Ashbrook said. An additional step in achieving food security are federal assistance programs such as SNAP, WIC and Summer EBT, a debit card provided to children who qualify for free or reduced lunch to use at SNAP participating retailers during the summer. Advocates are hoping Congress will pass the Tax Relief for American Families and Workers Act of 2024, which is pending in the Senate. The act would “provide additional tax credits to about 16 million children and it would lift an estimated 400,000 children above the poverty line,” which is important as hunger and poverty go hand-in-hand, Ashbrook said. Programs like SNAP provide an extra line of defense against hunger alongside food banks. According to Feeding America, a nationwide network of food banks, which includes the Food Bank for Central and Northeast Missouri and the Greater Cleveland Food Bank, for every one meal provided by a partner food bank, SNAP provides nine. “And these programs are the safety net that really helps improve food security and health,” Ashbrook said, “as fabulous as the charitable network is, they can’t solve hunger alone.” While a variety of resources are available on both local and federal levels to address food insecurity, the stigma of using food service programs may turn people away from taking full advantage of them. “I think as human beings, it’s hard to ask for help. It’s hard to accept help and there’s a lot of pride,” Martin said, “there’s kind of this old mentality of you pull yourself up by your bootstraps and you’re able to provide for your family.” To combat the stigma, Martin encourages people who have used food services to share their stories. “I think the more that we can shed light on how much it impacts, I mean, it’s like 1-in-10 Americans are struggling with food insecurity. How can we break down those stereotypes and the ideas,” Martin said. The Missourian attempted to get first-hand testimony about services at The Food Bank Market, but neighbors contacted at the Market were unwilling to speak. Talking about the challenge can be “really, really hard for people,” Adkins said. Providing neighbors with a comfortable experience through The Food Bank Market is part of making asking for help easier. “Any day that, you know, you can walk into the market and have a good shopping experience and then have somebody help you bag your groceries and chat with you a little bit or ask if there are other local resources we might be able to connect you with,” Adkins said, “we think that’s a good outcome.” |

2024.05.15 17:17 Civil_University5522 S-Corp Created in 2019, never filed any taxes, no income or expenses
I foolishly started an s-corp with my friend back in 2019. The corporation is registered in NY (still active according to their site). I kind of just forgot about it since forming it. I would imagine this is not a unique situation given the advent of LegalZoom and other similar services.
There are no bank accounts tied to the entity. There were no expenses and revenue generated. There were technically expenses for initially filing, but neither of us took a loss on our personal returns.
I have recently learned that there can be substantial penalties for filing late or not at all. Neither of us have ever received anything from the Federal or State taxing agencies regarding this. Now that we are in 2024, I was wondering what the best course of action would be. Also, I wanted to know if the IRS penalties imposed for the s-corp for filing late or not at all can impact either of us directly or do those penalties remain within the corporation? I’m really at a loss.
