KEYWORDS hiring hiring process job expectations new hires offer letters Onboarding
Accepting a job applicant into a position is an exciting move, often coming at the end of a busy schedule of interviews and research.
To make sure the new hire is on the same page with the employer, it's a good idea to have an offer letter ready to go, even if the employer has given a verbal offer to that person.
It's a way to make sure all the important initial information is covered to help the company avoid issues later. An offer letter also gets some of the boilerplate information out that wasn't covered before.
"It sets the expectations from the beginning," says Paige McAllister, vice president of compliance at Affinity HR Group. "And it answers a lot of questions that may not happen during the interview process."
Most applicants will ask about pay and benefits in interviews. But things like overtime exemptions, union opportunities and specific job expectations might not get fully explained.
First and foremost, an effective offer letter welcomes the new hire to the business. It lets them know, in an official way, that the company wants them as an employee, McAllister says.
The rest of the letter will make sure that person is up to speed for the first day.
Describe the Job
An offer letter should include an outline of the specific duties in the position. McAllister says that should include:
General job expectations
Exempt / non-exempt from overtime pay (based on Fair Labor Standards Act)
Classification: full-time/part-time/temporary
Wages or pay period information for salaried workers
Requirements like non-solicitation or confidentiality agreements
Have the new hire sign the letter. This helps the employer know that the prospective employee understands what's expected and that they won't dispute the pay amount or duties later.
The description should cover all job duties but still be general. Specific policies and practices can be covered after the person has started.
"I don't think you want too much detail," McAllister says. "You don't want the whole three-page job description in there."
It's also a way to help the employer avoid legal trouble. McAllister says that it's important to always include a line in the letter that employment is on an at-will basis, meaning that an employee can be terminated for any legal reason.
Prepared For Day One
An offer letter is also an effective way to pass along information for the new employee's first day. McAllister says it could include tax forms, direct deposit requests and other onboarding paperwork that can be completed ahead of time.
The letter can summarize benefit information so that the new hire can consider their options.
It also gets logistical information across, like when to show up, where to park and where to go at the job location.
And if the new hire has questions, the letter should have clear contact information for the right person at the business.
In some states, a background check could also mark the start of the background check process. Those checks could include criminal checks and driver's license verification.
Particularly for criminal background checks, some states require that a job offer is made before conducting one. These laws were passed to try and reduce employer discrimination of applicants due to any criminal history.
The Society for Human Resource Management has state-by-state information on these rules.
In these cases, an employer might give a conditional offer letter. That conveys the same tone as the regular letter but says that a background test, drug test or other process has to come first.
"You're still giving them all that information," McAllister says, "but you're saying it's conditional upon successful completion of whatever it is."
Without a conditional letter, it can be tougher to terminate the hiring process if the person fails a background check.
Make sure to include a potential start date in a conditional offer letter.

John Tejada Rides the Wave of L.A.'s Techno Renaissance By Dennis Romero Wednesday, July 23, 2008 John Tejada landed in Los Angeles in the early 1980s at the age of 8. His mother, a Mexican-American opera singer, had left his Austrian father and settled in Panorama City. After a Viennese childhood of piano lessons, touring opera houses with his parents and exposure to the best classical music, the grade-schooler woke up one day in the northeast Valley hoping he wouldn't get shot on the way to school, hoping that a nerdlike devotion to the sounds of "techno-hop" and true-school electro would keep him under the local gangs' radar. And so, little John listened on his Walkman as the earth seemed to quake, pop and break-dance to the robotic sounds of the Unknown DJ, Egyptian Lover, Arabian Prince, Afrika Bambaataa and Arthur Baker. "All these electronic genres came out of these urban environments," says the techno producer, now 34. "House, techno and drum 'n' bass all came out of poo
Getting "Respect" at the Echoplex
Drum and Bass party is now at Eastside club By Dennis Romero, Special to the Times July 3, 2008 Though it has made its name as a sneak-peek critics' venue (Beck and Mars Volta have performed there), the Echoplex in Echo Park is also shaping up as a local epicenter for edgy, left-of-center dance music (M.I.A., Cut Copy, UNKLE). Case in point: The homegrown Junglist Platoon crew of DJs recently moved their 9-year-old Respect drum-and-bass night to the 'Plex on Thursdays, after the owners of their last home base, a Hollywood lounge, couldn't stand the volume of d-'n'-b's rumble-and-roll. (If you can't stand the beats, stay out of the kitchen.) At the Echoplex, the hyperkinetic soul of Respect's break-beat arrhythmia gets proper staging, complete with stacks of loudspeakers, a wide-open stage, two-screens of Paleolithic visuals, and enough b-boys to start a break-dance army. The DJs take center stage, flanked by as many as three MCs. Strangely, as foreig
Booka Shade, Avalon Hollywood, July 26
LA Weekly July 28, 2008 8:13 AM Text and photos by Dennis Romero It's a relatively new medium boxed in by opposing conventions: rocking out versus remaining faithful to the linear, lockstep groove of the modern dance floor. Few – perhaps Kraftwerk, the Chemical Brothers and the first incarnation of Deepsky – have breached the envelope. We're talking, of course, of live electronic music – an oxymoronic pursuit to some. On Saturday the Berlin nu-tech duo Booka Shade took its live show for a second time to a packed house at Avalon Hollywood, sincerely attempting to put a fresh spin on its two-album catalog that includes its sublime spring release, The Sun & the Neon Light. Did beautiful, cobalt grooves emerge as Arno Kammermeier and Wlater Merziger sweated over two laptops, a digital drum kit and several synthesizers and sequencers? Of course. Who could resist the bittersweet, voice-box serenade of of its latest single, "Charlotte," or the melancholic break-house of one of its first
Many flavors of hip feed the Hard fest
Los Angeles Times July 17, 2008 By -- Dennis Romero ON NEW YEAR'S Day of 1993, fans of cutting-edge music could have done worse than hanging out with Gary Richards on his 22nd birthday as he rode a roller coaster high above Knott's Berry Farm. Richards was throwing a party for himself, but more important, he was pulling rave culture and techno music out of illicit warehouses and injecting it into the concert-going mainstream, drawing a crowd 17,000 strong to his K-Rave '93 at the Orange County amusement park. Of course, the rest is history: Rave grew up, DJs such as Paul Oakenfold went on to score Hollywood movies, and fans of the music would one day be sipping wine at the Hollywood Bowl as Underworld performed. Some of the gentrified dance music events in town now are downright geezerly, which brings up the questions: Where are all the new kids? And what are they listening to? Enter a familiar face, Richards, now 37, who says he's as thrilled as ever about new musi

This mitt is a MIRACLE! You won't believe the skin that comes off your face in one use. It's crazy! But in a good way! My skin is super smooth and my pores are way less noticeable when I use this product. I have oily thick skin and it makes my skin look gorgeous!
I live in Arizona and have always had dry skin and patches of dry skin. I have had to have several precancerous patches of skin burned off. I was scheduled to have more precancerous patches removed but began using the MicrodermaMitt along with the Olive Bar and Oil. My precancerous patches are totally gone without having them burned off! Thank you MicrodermaMitt!
This is possibly the best product I've gotten online. I use it once or twice a week, follow it up with lots of fragrance-free lotion and my moisturizer sunscreen, and my skin has gone from rough, scaly, thick, typically middle-aged, to amazing. It was light years better after just one encounter with this product.
Having four daughters with acne; I have tried everything on the market to help their skin including specialty creams from Hollywood, Proactive and prescription strength products. My girls used the MicrodermaMitt ZitMit along with the Olive Oil Soap and they thought they were the best products they have ever used on their skin. I have spent a fortune on their faces, and have never had the same results as with your products.
Good-bye bumps! I have suffered with keratosis pilaris for over 15 years. When I was a teenager my dermatologist prescribed me some topical creams, but they never worked. I am a licensed Esthetician in Florida, and I was so thrilled to discover your products. I have no desire to put any chemicals on my face or body to help in the healing process. After just a few uses, my keratosis is almost non-existent.
My face always gets flaky and dry, especially because I pick at my breakouts a lot. My makeup always used to look cakey because of my dry skin. This Mitt smooths out my face SO amazingly, my skin glows, and my makeup looks smooth.
I use this Mitt on my face and have had great results. I am vigilant about washing and cleansing my face and own a Clarisonic, but this mitt has works even better.
I have used the Face Mitt for the past 11 years and I cannot imagine living without it.
This is awesome! I have very dry skin and live in a dry climate, and this mitt works better than any scrub or loofah I've ever used. Easy to use, doesn't feel like I'm scrubbing with abrasives, and my skin is so smooth.
This is the second MicrodermaMitt I've purchased for my husband. He suffers from ingrown hairs all over his body. The MicrodermaMitt has virtually eliminated the problem. It's very gentle but extremely effective. Highly recommend.
Wow! This product works immediately and incredibly well. So simple and so effective! I give my skin a good rubdown with the mitt every week and follow up with moisturizing cream after I get out of the shower. My husband noticed how soft and smooth my skin has become almost at once, and I've been astonished, very pleasantly so, by how he takes every opportunity to run his hand over my arm or leg these days!
Much less expensive than professional microdermabrasion and it couldn't be easier!

FINLAND 🇫🇮
Finland's broadcaster Yle has today told about their plans for their national selection for Eurovision 2020. UMK 2020 will include an open search for the songs. Songwriters and artists can submit their songs in November, from 1st to 8th. More information about the format will come in the next weeks. Next year Yle's radio station YleX will be closely working together with the UMK producers. The producer of Uuden Musiikin Kilpailu Anssi Autio and YleX's Hanne Kautto hope that this will give more energy and efficiency to the search and the whole competition.
The Bundesvision Song Contest which was last held in 2015, is unlikely to be returning to screens anytime soon. ProSieben, the broadcaster that produced the competition alongside Stefan Raab for a decade, confirmed to German media that it currently has no plans to bring the contest back.
Duncan says out that he loves the idea of being the host presenter for next year's Eurovision. It has also been suggested he could present with his mentor Ilse Delange. Possible hosts that have been brought up on social media and in mainstream media include Cornald Maas, Jan Smit, Chantal Janzen and Emma Wortelboer.

Q: Show that if $U,V ∈ τ$ are both dense in $E$, then $U ∩ V$ is dense in $E$. Let $(E, \tau)$ be a topological space.
Show that if $U,V ∈ τ$ are both dense in $E$, then $U ∩ V$ is dense in $E$. Is this still true if $U, V$ are not assumed open ?
Since $U$ and $V$ are both dense in $E$, we know $\forall O \in \tau, U \cap O \neq \emptyset $ and similarly $V\cap O \neq \emptyset $ so we can conclude $U\cap V \neq \emptyset $ and $U\cap V  \in \tau$
What I really need to prove is $\overline{U\cap V } = E$,
Now, already know the following (by the assumption) : $E = E \cap E = \overline{U} \cap \overline{V} $ and (always true) $\overline{U \cap V} \subseteq \overline{U} \cap \overline{V} $
Maybe from the nonempty intersections: $\forall O \in \tau,\, U\cap(O \cap V) = U\cap (V \cap O) = (U \cap V) \cap O$ not sure if this a is valid move but if the intersection is dense then it will also have non-empty intersection with every open set in the topology.
And as far as it still being true with $U,V$ not open, I suspect at least one needs to be open.

A: Hint For $U,V$ non-open, take $U=\mathbb Q$ and $V=\mathbb R \backslash \mathbb Q$.

A: If one of them, say $U$, is open (and dense) and the other $V$ is dense, then the intersection is dense.
To see this: let $O$ be a non-empty open set in $X$. Then $O \cap U$ is open (as $U$ is too) and non-empty (as $U$ is dense). So $(O \cap U) \cap V$ is non-empty (as $V$ is dense). But this indeed equals $O \cap (U \cap V)$ and so $O$ intersects $U \cap V$ for all open non-empty $U$. So $U \cap V$ is dense.
We do need the openness, as we can take (as N.S. already suggests), the rationals and irrationals in the reals, both of which are dense, and neither is open.

Fabio Jakobsen out of coma and in 'good condition' after Tour of Poland crash
Aug 07, 2020 Sports
The Dutch cyclist Fabio Jakobsen, who was put in a medically-induced coma after crashing at the finish line in the Tour of Poland's first stage on Wednesday, is awake and in good condition, tour organisers said on Friday.
Jakobsen, who rides for the Belgian team Deceuninck-Quick Step, was trying to jostle for position with Dylan Groenewegen of Jumbo-Visma in the final metres of the opening stage, but the pair collided and Jakobsen crashed into the barriers, also injuring a race official. The 23-year-old was taken to hospital and underwent facial surgery. Groenewegen was disqualified from the race and Jakobsen was awarded the Stage 1 win.
"We have good news from the hospital in Sosnowiec! @FabioJakobsen is awake now from the coma. Condition is 'good'," the race organisers said on Twitter. The hospital in Sosnowiec, southern Poland, said that Jakobsen will have to go through a long rehabilitation process, but his condition is good and he does not show any neurological symptoms.
"The patient is conscious, follows orders, is disconnected from the ventilator, so he is breathing alone," the hospital's director told a news conference. "I think that if he survived such a fall, he will return to sport for sure," he added.
Cycling's governing body, the UCI, issued a statement strongly condemning the "dangerous behaviour" of Groenewegen, accusing him of causing the crash. Groenewegen apologised for his actions in a statement on Thursday.

The race was meant to be held in July but was postponed due to the Covid-19 pandemic. It was reduced to five stages from the original seven in order to leave room on the calendar for other rescheduled races.

Pontifical John Paul II Institute
Washington, D. C., Washington, D.C., United States
A longtime philosopher-friend of Karol Wojtyla once said that Wojtyla had always been occupied with understanding the human person in terms of love. The mission of the Pontifical John Paul II Institute, in a profound sense, begins here, in this abiding conviction of the late Holy Father that love reveals the meaning of the person and, through the person, of all "flesh," the whole of creation

M.T.S. Biotechnology and Ethics
M.T.S. Marriage and Family
At the conclusion of the 1980 Synod of Bishops devoted to the family, the Synod Fathers called for the creation of theological centers devoted to the study of the Church's teaching on marriage and the family. Accordingly, Pope John Paul II responded to the Synod with the establishment of the Pontifical Institute for Studies on Marriage and Family and the Pontifical Council for the Family.
The reading of literature, especially the great works of the past, is an indispensable part of learning. There are two reasons for this: first, we contemplate and penetrate the image of man from the roots of our culture's history, attaching ourselves, so to speak, as branches to the vine of our tradition so that it may continue to bear fruit.

Cambridge University Rugby Club
Varsity Match 2019: Cambridge University's Tom Lovelace leaves it late to realise Twickenham ambition
The 31-year-old will make him Twickenham debut against the other place on Thursday
Andrew Georgeson
Cambridge University's Tom Lovelace.
More than ten years after accepting he may never get a chance of playing at Twickenham, Tom Lovelace will start for Cambridge University in the Varsity Match.
The 31-year-old hasn't had the most conventional route there, though. After graduating from the University of Nottingham, he entered a career in finance before a change in direction took him to tech sales in Spain.
All the time he kept plugging away at rugby, toiling down in the London Leagues in a career he described as "mediocre."
To the outside observer though, this seems modest. Alongside, Flip van der Merwe and James Horwill he is one of three full internationals in the Light Blues camp, turning out 11 times for Gibraltar.
The breakthrough for Lovelace, who is half-Gibraltan, came in 2016. After impressing in a trial match, he lined up against Montenegro, who had only just been accepted into tier-five of European Rugby and had to turn their shirts inside out due a colour clash, on a muddy pitch away in the port town of Tivat. They won 55-7.
It'll be different on Thursday, and the biggest crowd he's ever played in front of, but he the Hughes Hall MBA student believes his experiences with his national side will put him in good stead.
"I sort of accepted at 18 that I was never really going to make it to Twickenham," he said. "I got rejected from Oxford at undergrad too and I thought that was the chance.
"My rugby career hasn't been that great, Gibraltar is by far the best thing. To be at home and singing the national anthem is really special.
"This late in my career, in the last or second last season I'll play, to run out on the turf [at Twickenham] after being there so many times as a fan, and never really thinking I would, will be pretty special.
"Playing for Gibraltar will help, but it's a different pressure. You feel the weight of the country on your shoulders. It makes me thrives though."
Varsity was not something he expected, and indeed he started that the season with the LX club, but soon enough his chance with the Blues team came. He admitted that making the step-up was "nerve-wracking", but it was also an instant success.
A winger, he has made up part of a back-three including Joey Gatus and Fergus Jemphrey that have been a revelation. Indeed, he admits being in awe of the talent across the squad, and credits head coach James Shanahan for bringing the best out of them.
"Playing with Fergus and Joey is a privilege," he said. "We have a bit of a back-three clique going on.
"Shanners wants us to play a fairly straight forward brand of rugby. He wants us to be aggressive in attack and defence, play simple passes, run with the ball and chase back.
"Joey and Fergus are brilliant. Obviously Joey has played for Yorkshire Carnegie, and Fergus is incredible quick."
"It's pretty incredible though, a lot of the younger guys have played in big games. Charlie Watson is in the England U20s team, Al Gliksten has played for England U18s and Scotland U17s. They are hugely talented players that have played in big games.
"Then there's experienced guys like Rory Triniman and Mike Phillips and Chris Bell who have won Varsity Matches, and have told us what to expect on that day."
He added: "It'll be tight up front to begin with, but as soon as we get the space - and I don't want to sound like I'm tooting my own horn here - but hopefully we can make some ground and maybe cross with whitewash."

All in the midst of heat releases, PUMA has tapped longtime collaborator Jeff Staple for another sequel to the Pigeon collab back in 2013 and more recently, 2016.
The story of the Pigeon is an interesting one. While we don't usually encounter with pigeons here in Malaysia, they're ridiculously ubiquitous in Manhattan that holds a heavy meaning to the citizens there. To them, the pigeon is a reminder of the gritty resilience of New Yorkers. Much like the pigeon, New Yorkers are survivors, and the bird that can survive horrible weather conditions, eat whatever is thrown at it, and still live, is very much a reminder and homage to that spirit.
To bring forth the template of the bird, A frost gray suede upper is decked out with gray laces and pony hair heels. An Ombre coloured Formstrip reflects the iridescent accents on the bird, finished off with Georgia peach highlights. Colour blocking is spot on this pair, and for the ones that desire even a fraction of the pigeon magic, this is the one to get. The shoe also comes with an extra set of peach laces for if you want an extra pop of colour.
The Jeff Staple Suede 50 is available now at PUMA KLCC, Sunway Pyramid, Pavilion, Aeon Terbau City, Mid Valley, and Genting Sky Avenue for approximately RM 460. Drip, or skip?


A number of small Colorado mountain towns are turning away from traditional speed trap status as bad for business. Police in Fairplay, for example, are no longer ticketing every outsider who passes through on the way to a skiing vacation. Instead, they are now issuing warnings to the majority of those who missed the lowered speed limit signs on Highway 9.
"We did have the reputation as being a pretty evil town," Police Chief David Gottschalk told the Colorado Springs Gazette. "I don't want people to be afraid to come to Fairplay."
Now the town has lowered the speeding ticket fine from $105 to $65 and cut the annual revenue from tickets from $100,000 to $22,255 last year -- a quarter of the town's budget. As a result of their work, the National Motorists Association no longer lists the town on the Speed Trap Registry website.
Likewise, the nearby 179-resident town of Alma has five police officers who wrote 157 tickets last year worth $15,920. In six months, however, it wrote 353 warnings -- or about four times more warnings than tickets. Alma is no longer listed on the speed trap registry.

Q: How to run sql profiler on read only node of SQL Manage instance in Azure? We are using readonly node of SQL MI azure using applicationIntent=Readonly property in connection string. When we enable sql profiler on readonly node then it connect only read-write node only . Can anyone suggest how can we enable profiler or extended event on readonly node?

A: Unfortunately you will not be able to turn on profiler/extended events because you do not have direct access to the node itself. Business Critical Tier run Always on on the backend which is not visible to the user. Because of that you will not be able to do anything with secondary nodes.
What is the reasoning behind running XE or profiler on secondary nodes.

A: You would want to run profiler on a read only sql server secondary node because you can do read only queries on the database on the secondary and you want to monitor performance.
You can connect SSMS to a read only node by using the  button / additional connection parameters   when you connect and putting ApplicationIntent=ReadOnly
You can try to create a test table. It will fail saying the database is read only. One way to know SSMS really is connected to a read only replica.
Then you can use regular DMV's to see performance stats. The DMV data is stored in RAM, not the database.
So far the connection option does not seem to work to connect Profiler to the read only server node. I may be making a mistake, missing something or it doesn't work with profiler.

Father and son missing after allegedly setting sail from Goleta to Hawaii
Gerald "Storm" Talifero
A 68-year-old father and his 14-year-old son who were thought to be sailing from Goleta to Hawaii have gone missing. [Cal Coast Times]
Adagio "Dag" Talifero
In June, Gerald "Storm" Talifero and his son Adagio "Dag" Talifero presumably set sail from the Goleta area to Hawaii, according to the Santa Barbara County Sheriff's Office. The sheriff's office, along with the United States Coast Guard and the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children are now searching for the father and son.
Sheriff's officials say it is believed the Taliferos were going to possibly make a stop in San Diego before heading to Hawaii. The trip to Hawaii was planned to last only a few weeks, and it was supposed to be a one-way journey.
The father and son had airline tickets to return to California in early September. But, neither of the Taliferos showed up for their return flight. It does not appear, either, that they rescheduled their flights.
Officials say the father and son were effectively travelers, with no single place they called home. Most recently, they were known to be staying on a friend's farm in Camptonville, California.
They then made several back and forth trips to Santa Barbara, Ojai and Arizona.
It is believed the father and son were sailing either in a friend's boat or in a boat Gerald Talifero was contracted to sell on behalf of the owner. Those close to the father speculate the boat originated from either the Bay Area or Washington state.
Thus far, investigators have no information about the name of the vessel or the boat's registration.
Anyone with information about the boat or the father and son's whereabouts is asked to contact the Santa Barbara County Sheriff's Criminal Investigations Bureau at (805) 681-4150 or Detective Travis Henderson at tjh3806@sbsheriff.org.

CONGRATULATIONS! You have decided to buy a new home. This booklet will help you take this big financial step by describing the home buying, home financing, and settlement process. Lenders and mortgage brokers are required by federal law, the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act ("RESPA"), to give you this booklet. You should receive it when applying for a loan, or within three business days afterwards. Real estate brokers frequently hand out this booklet as well.
You probably started the home buying process in one of two ways: you saw a home you were interested in buying or you consulted a lender to figure out how much money you could borrow before you found a home (sometimes called pre-qualifying). The next step is to sign an agreement of sale with the seller, followed by applying for a loan to purchase your new home. The final step is called "settlement" or "closing," where the legal title to the property is transferred to you.
At each of these steps you often have the opportunity to negotiate the terms, conditions and costs to your advantage. This booklet will highlight such opportunities. You will also need to shop carefully to get the best value for your money. There is no standard home buying process used in all localities. Your actual experience may vary from those described here. This booklet takes you through the general steps to buying a home, to eliminate, as much as possible, the mysteries of the settlement process.


The number of blocks in the monument increased to 59 after comprehensive excavation works.
Called the "finding of the century" by epigraphists over its uniqueness, the Patara Monument of Roads is like a map of the Lycian geography and is the world's oldest known and only road map in the world. The monument is set to be displayed in the ancient city of Patara in the southern province of Antalya in the beginning of 2018.
Erected upon an order by the Emperor Claudius, who turned Patara into a Roman city in 43 A.D., the 6-meter-high monument has inscriptions on three sides and a list of roads in the Lycian region on one side.
"The long-time conservation process of the monument, which is very important in world history, has been finished. This artifact will return to the land where it was born," Surveying and Monuments director Cemil Karabayram said.

For applications in extreme ambient conditions there are suitable protective housings available, for example made of stainless steel. These are optionally equipped with a cooling, heating or both.

Q: My client sees grossly defective image, not what I uploaded Obligatory research done without result. My client (in another state) sees this very pixelated image. The only way I can replicate his view is by zooming in with ctrl + repeatedly. In a brief moment, before the zoom is complete, I see the defective image. Then it becomes clear again. I asked him to use another computer. So far, no response from him. I must resolve this issue. I'll appreciate any help.  The first link shows what I see (and hopefully what you see).
The second link shows what he sees. Client sent it to me as a screen capture.

A: That's a Moiré pattern formed due to subsampling a dotted (halftone) image without blurring first. Especially low-power viewers are likely to implement scaling that way, because blurring is slow. It seems that your viewer also scales that way as a first approximation, in order to react quickly, but then it makes the properly scaled version as well.
You should be able to fix it by scaling the image yourself. You can use responsive images to retain the ability to scale up and to support high DPI.
