Disbelief in Toronto after van leaves trail of death in city centre
By Robert Hackwill • Updated: 24/04/2018
Shocked witnesses in Toronto have been describing what they saw when a white van mounted crowded pavements and struck pedestrians indiscriminately.
The incident happened around lunchtime, as the driver managed to drive over a kilometre, mowing down people, before coming to a halt.
"He just went on the sidewalk he just started hitting everybody man. He hit every single person on the sidewalk, anybody in his way he hit, the bus stop, everything got shattered. There is a lady in there that I saw, I just stopped and I looked and I went after it again. All I see is just crumbling up, one by one one by one," said one man.
"I was just in the coffee shop and I saw there's a white truck, just go to the sidewalk. And so many people just shout him 'stop the car' but he didn't, he just keep moving," said a young woman.
Some businessmen were sat outside on their lunchbreak.
"We were eating lunch, we came out, there's a lot of people, a huge crowd of people on both sides of the stree...... And there were four bodies on the ground. Police and the ambulance hadn't arrived yet but people were trying to revive them, obviously to no avail," said one of them.

Is Brown's plan to close state parks all a political gimmick?

PUBLISHED: January 15, 2012 at 8:23 a.m. | UPDATED: August 13, 2016 at 9:07 a.m.
When Congress cut the budget for the National Park Service in 1969, Richard Nixon's national parks director responded with the political equivalent of a nuclear bomb: He decided to close the Grand Canyon and the Washington Monument.
"It was unheard of. Even my own staff thought I was crazy," George Hartzog recalled years later. But it worked. The public was so outraged that Congress restored the money.
Now, as California Gov. Jerry Brown moves forward with a plan to close 70 state parks by July 1, environmental leaders, political scientists and budget experts say "the Washington Monument syndrome" appears to be at work again.
Closing a quarter of California's century-old state park system will save only $22 million — two-tenths of 1 percent of California's $9.2 billion deficit. Attempts at closing parks in other states have resulted in costly vandalism. And business leaders say the closures will cost rural communities and the state millions of dollars in lost taxes from tourism.
So why do it?
Seeing beloved beaches, campsites and redwood forests padlocked during the summer could help persuade recalcitrant California residents that the state's budget problems are real — and make them more likely to vote for Brown's tax-hike initiative in November, political experts say.
"There's going to be a big sign on each park that says, 'Due to budget difficulties, the state of California has been forced to close this facility until further notice,' " said Larry Gerston, a political science professor at San Jose State University. "It's free advertising for the governor's campaign. Never mind that most of these places can't really be padlocked. But symbolism is very powerful in politics."
Environmental leaders across California are privately debating whether the strategy is smart.
Bad precedent?
But in the end, most are worried that once parks are closed — something that hasn't happened since California's state park system began in 1902 with the opening of Big Basin Redwoods State Park in Santa Cruz County — parks facilities could be significantly damaged. And, they fear, the precedent might make it easier for future lawmakers to close them again.
"To say that there is a good political consequence with this seems to miss the point that we may indeed really lose some of these parks," said Elizabeth Goldstein, executive director of the nonprofit California State Parks Foundation in San Francisco. "Once you've done something bad, it's easier to do the second time."
Brown's staff said he would not be available for an interview on the economics of closing state parks. But H.D. Palmer, spokesman for the state Department of Finance, denied that politics, more than budget savings, are behind the plan.
State Parks has "a relatively small budget; that is true," he said. "But no department, no agency has been untouched by the reductions necessary to close this budget gap."
Brown has said Californians must decide what government services they're willing to pay for.
"What do the people of California want in terms of the key elements of California government?" he said shortly after he was elected. "The voters ultimately have to say, 'This is what I want.' "
Early this month, Brown proposed a budget that relies on voters in November raising $6.9 billion a year by increasing the sales tax by half a cent for four years and raising income taxes for five years for individuals earning $250,000 or more a year.
If voters do not approve the taxes, he said, schools would be cut $4.8 billion — the equivalent of cutting three weeks from the school year. The state also would close fire stations and lay off 20 percent of park rangers and all seasonal beach lifeguards.
"This is the quintessential example of the Washington Monument syndrome," said Jon Coupal, president of the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association.
Coupal predicted that unless Brown ends his support for the state's costly high-speed rail project and dramatically reduces state employee pension costs, voters won't believe that the state is truly in a dire budget crisis.
Complicating the politics, Californians have seen threats of park closures before that never came to pass.
In the final two years of his term, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger proposed closing 220 of the state's 280 state parks to help close budget deficits. He reversed course, however, after receiving 135,000 letters, calls and emails in opposition. Sources close to the former governor said he was concerned about how the closures would impact his legacy. Instead, the state reduced hours at more than 150 parks.
Reality may sting
A three-week government shutdown in Minnesota last summer did result in state parks being closed. Without rangers on hand, vandals spray-painted buildings, broke into cabins, stole equipment and cut padlocks at numerous parks.
In recent months, nine parks — including Henry Coe in Morgan Hill, Tomales Bay in Marin County and Mono Lake — have been removed from the closure list after private donations or federal funds were secured to keep them open. But Palmer said it isn't likely Brown will decide to keep the other parks on the list from closing.
In November 2010, voters rejected a plan to keep all the parks open when they turned down Proposition 21, which would have raised vehicle license fees $18 a year to double the state parks budget.
Now environmentalists who raised $10 million for that campaign say Californians are about to see the consequences of the measure's failure and Brown's plan.
"It doesn't strike me as most thoughtful way to make public policy, but there are a lot of things government does that people take for granted," said Mike Sweeney, executive director of the California Nature Conservancy. "And we may just be in an era where we may need to have a reminder of what services the government provides."

i-drive, Openwave Team Up
By Kevin Newcomb | July 30, 2001
Online storage provider i-drive and IP-based messaging provider Openwave Systems Inc. announced Monday that they will collaborate to deliver an integrated communications and storage solution to Communication Service Providers (CSPs).
"The ability to store, access and share files and rich media is the next natural extension to messaging," said Don Oas, vice president of Product Management for Openwave. "Our collaborative effort, made possible by both companies' commitment to open standards, gives service providers an extensible solution that enables new revenue streams and reduces cost of ownership through simplified deployment and operation."
This collaboration will enable CSPs to provide their business and consumer users the ability to store, access and share any type of content by accessing their i-drive powered storage solution through their Internet-enabled mobile phone or PC. For example, by using the i-drive and Openwave solution, an executive preparing for a sales presentation can use her mobile phone to access business documents stored in her i-drive and send them directly to her client.
The two companies are working on combined solutions to meet the needs of service providers, who are extending their existing messaging infrastructure to provide applications for management and sharing of files and rich media content. This cooperative effort brings Openwave's communications infrastructure to i-drive's file management applications, and adds the scalable storage management and peer-to-peer data exchange capabilities of the i-drive Enhanced Storage Platform to Openwave's messaging applications.
"As media grows richer and drives the need for scalable, cost-effective storage solutions, it is critical that service providers can deliver messaging and storage applications on top of a single, cohesive infrastructure," said Arif Janjua, CEO of i-drive. "The agreement between i-drive and Openwave provides the structure for the parties to address this need within the telecommunications market."
Collaborative product offerings from i-drive and Openwave are expected to be commercially available in the third quarter of 2001.

they're checking the heating system of a public bathrooms and it's seen that the filters are not working properly. this means the smoke being belched into the skies over kabul is even more toxic than usual. more provocative our job is to reduce the air pollution around the country we go to cities with our monitoring teams and with people from the local authorities such as here in kabul and we identify any sources of air pollution which are hazardous for the city and then take the necessary action doesn't need to . but when it comes to kabul they're facing a huge almost insurmountable challenge the air in the city is more poisonous and in most other places on the planet. much of the pollution here comes from cars and congestion other sources include poor quality fuel people burning rubbish and
household cooking stove. in a country otherwise known for terrorist attacks and poor security pollution is emerging as a silent killer and it is the weakest and most fun ribble who are bearing the brunt. doctors at the indira gandhi hospital in kabul say the number of children being admitted with illnesses linked to pollution is increasing. there are no exact figures but they say hundreds come every day to be treated for asperity problems in the fall. there's a lot of pollution in kabul and most of the children under the age of 5 suffer from various elements such as chest pain flu dizziness and sensitivity for allergies. by turning up the hates on pollutants the government in kabul is taking steps to improve the situation it's also trying
to raise awareness among ordinary people about the causes of pollution but it's unclear when or if their efforts will enable them to move forward with the battle against pollution. political shake up within germany social democratic party is prompting speculation that the governing coalition with conservatives could be in danger the social democrats of conserve their new leadership during the volatile and saskia asking for the new leaders are calling for changes to the coalition a great chance for america's conservatives may find unpalatable here is newly elected co-leader asking. well i was and am still skeptical about the future of the grand coalition might in my view my opinion on that hasn't changed with this proposal we are giving the coalition a realistic chance of continuing nothing more and nothing less may all of our mean to go. w.'s chief political editor mccain is out there speedy party conference in

Scott Stirling came from down deep in the pack on Saturday night 22nd of March to take out the feature and let everyone know he's going to be one to watch come Title night! Stirling put down the quickest lap for the night in the feature after the heat races had been run in very heavy track conditions with a time of 15.187 secs at a speed of 94.818kph. Rob Stewart chased home in second followed by another great drive from Chris Paolini who is showing a real liking for the Speedbowl.
With only one other division racing on Saturday night at the Toowoomba Speedbowl Extravaganza track conditions were always going to be tricky however the first heat caught a lot out with the very heavy conditions. The #37 of Nick Gannon and the Trada Transport #8 of Dave Swan led the field away but it was the #69 of Gary Hudson that was making the big moves and hit the lead on lap 4 and cleared out to win. Chris Paolini was running second only to get run down by Stirling in the last lap and finished a great third. From there back it was hard to tell who was who as the mid pack battle had cars covered in mud and hard to see some numbers! Emma Harris grabbed fourth followed by Dave Collins, Stewart, Gannon, Nick Hudson, Cameron Pesschier, Wayne Corbett, Barry Gibbes and Dave Swan.
A quick turnaround time between heats had drivers and crew scrambling to make changes, clean helmets and reload tearoffs and de-mud cars. Paolini and Hudson led them away but was again it was Hudson Snr that led the charge through the field and took the lead as Paolini once again set sail in second after him. Stirling and Corbett also moved through traffic nose to tail as drivers started to get to grips with the track surface. At the line it was Hudson Snr two from two with Paolini second, Stirling nabbing Corbett, Hudson Jnr, Harris, Gibbes, Pesschier, Stewart, Gannon, Collins and Swan.
Heat 3 was deja vu as Hudson Snr again took the win from Stirling, Hudson Jnr, Paolini, Stewart, Collins, Gibbes, Harris, Pesschier, Gannon, Corbett and Swan.
Feature time and the track had opened out to a good wide surface however not wide enough as the cars roared into turns 1&2 four wide with Collins squeezed up by the fence and having to turn down which unfortunately left Gibbes with nowhere to go but into the side of the #21 and nearly rolling the #66. Fortunately both cars were able to restart but as both cars had stopped on track they were sent rear of field. Gannon led the field away at the restart which had only gone a lap when the next caution came out for Hudson Snr who was parked in turn 3 with damage after clipping Swan. Hudson's fast night had come to an end. Again Gannon led the field away but Stirling was carving his way through and hit the lead on lap 4 as Paolini and Gannon had a great battle going! Stewart was quietly moving through the field picking cars off as he could but the boys at the front weren't making it easy as they were on the gas. Corbett, Pesschier, Harris and Gibbes were nose to tail in the pack proving just how even this division is now as they tried to get the better of each other. At the line tho it was Stirling who was too good ahead of Stewart, Paolini, Gannon, Hudson Jnr, Corbett, Harris, Pesschier, Gibbes, Collins and Swan. Hudson Snr did not finish. With 3 'B' grade drivers filling spots in the top 5 it proves the gap between A and B grade is next to nothing when everyones on the gas!!
The next meeting is April 5 at Archerfield Speedway for the Paul Messer Memorial a great tribute night to one of our lost members.
Its also the last run before its time to get serious for the Qld and Aussie Titles.
To all drivers if you haven't got your nominations in for the Title events yet its time to get them organised!!


The first day of the Advanced Hemodynamic Course hosted by Abiomed was on Thursday, November 5, 2015 in Frankfurt, Germany. The course began with Protected PCI case presentations.
Prof. Nikos Werner, MD from the University Hospital Bonn, Bonn, Germany presented the first case entitled "Elective Protected PCI." Prof. Werner noted the patient undergoing elective PCI is usually in stable condition, which is different from patients experiencing an acute myocardial infarction or in shock. Prof. Werner described a 77 year old patient with angina CCS 3 and dyspnea NYHA III, an ejection fraction of 35% and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Current coronary issues are severe left main equivalent disease extending into the left anterior descending artery and diseased right coronary artery. The patient also had diabetes, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia.
Previous cardiac history included coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) 10 years earlier with left internal mammary artery and saphenous vein graft. The patient was referred for repeat CABG, which the heart team denied. High-risk PCI was suggested as an alternative.
For high-risk PCI, Prof. Werner maintains an added measure of safety by providing hemodynamic support with the Impella device throughout the procedure. This case was difficult because of the severe left anterior descending lesion. However, successful PCI was performed and left main stenting was treated with the kissing balloon procedure. At the end of the case the Impella device was removed and an angiogram of the closure site was taken from the contralateral groin to confirm the absence of vascular abnormalities or bleeding. Having the contralateral site available also makes balloon tamponade possible, if needed.
The second case entitled "Urgent Protected PCI" was reported by Dr. Carlo Briguori, Chief of Interventional Cardiology at Clinica Mediterranea, Neaples Italy. Dr. Briguori described a 77 year old woman with non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction, acute pulmonary edema and elevated B type natriuretic peptide (BNP) of 1450. Echocardiography showed left ventricular ejection fraction of 30% and moderate mitral regurgitation. Coronary angiography revealed the following occlusions: left main was 70% occluded, distal right coronary artery was 90%, left anterior descending artery was 99% and left circumflex artery was 80%. Syntax score was 21.
The heart team recommended high-risk PCI using the Impella device for hemodynamic support. The left anterior descending artery and left circumflex artery were stented. The left main was treated with the kissing balloon technique. Mean arterial pressure was maintained throughout the procedure with the assistance of the Impella device. The patient was successfully treated and showed improvement in left ventricular function and BNP the next day.
Dr. Briguori mentioned that the Impella device allowed him to completely revascularize multiple coronary arteries in this patient and thus, increase the likelihood of a better outcome for this patient.
The Impella device provides hemodynamic support in patients with low ejection fraction and poor cardiac function. This allows patients to successfully undergo high-risk PCI procedures with complete revascularization and positive outcomes.

FDA Listeria Draft Guidance for Ready-to-Eat Foods: Part 1
FDA Listeria Draft Guidance for Ready-to-Eat Foods: Part 1 is an outline of essential information on the Listeria draft guidance, answering who, what, when, where, why and how questions. The guidance is written for companies manufacturing ready-to-eat (RTE) food and ingredients. As a guidance document the language is different from a rule where companies are required to comply. In general, an FDA guidance document does not require compliance, is written to help industry interpret rules, and explains FDA's current thinking on a topic. The FDA Listeria Draft Guidance is different. In this author's opinion, the guidance carries the full weight of a rule and will be enforced as such by FDA. If your company manufactures a RTE food, your President or company owner must be fully informed on the contents of the guidance. This paragraph answers why.
Who must test for Listeria?
All food companies making RTE foods under the jurisdiction of the federal Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
What must be tested for Listeria?
The company will identify food contact surfaces (FCS) and non-food contact surfaces (NFCS) as appropriate to the design of individual facilities. Finished product testing is discussed in the guidance and is recommended.
We recommend that you establish and implement a written procedure for the periodic collection of samples of your RTE food product, and for testing those samples for the presence of L. monocytogenes. See page 52.
What sterile supplies are needed?
The best method to sample a surface uses a premoistened, sterile sponge on a stick. My personal favorite comes from World Bioproducts. In addition to sponges, companies can use any sterile tool including Q-tip type swabs, tongue depressors to collect solids, scoops, dippers, pipets, bottles or bags. If you are concerned about contamination during sampling, have sterile gloves available for your technicians and intensify training. Finished product may be shipped in final packaging, or, if the finished product is large, a trained technician can obtain a portion aseptically to ship.
What lab method for Listeria is used?
When samples are sent to your contract lab, you specify for the testing of Listeria genus or Listeria monocytogenes. You can specify a one- or two-step enrichment. There are pros and cons for every method and its application, but you are expected to use a standard method which has been validated when testing for Listeria. Indicator tests which do not directly test for Listeria are useful for zone 1 and 2 samples; my favorite is an indicator test called HQA.
When are FCS sampled?
Warning! Warning! You are not going to like the answer. FDA wants food companies to sample FCS after three hours into production. The reasoning here is that microbial niches will have shook free and the conditions are representative of normal operations. Be very careful if following this FDA recommendation.
When are NFCS sampled?
NFCS can be sampled at any time provided food is not affected in the process of sampling and a positive Listeria test would not be associated with the product. When NFCS are tested as part of pre-op, this is a verification activity for a sanitation program.
Where are samples taken?
FCS and NFCS samples must be taken from every production line and from any area in the facility beyond production lines.
How many samples are taken?
A minimum of five samples from FCS (Zone 1) must be taken from every line every week. A minimum of five samples from NFCS must be taken. Imagine you have four lines in each room. You will take a minimum of five FCS samples from every line, for a total of 20 samples. Know that FDA is very conservative on their definition of FCS. For example, a control panel can be a FCS, if the technician who touches the panel in turn touches the production line or product. The same is true of overhead structures like pipes where condensate or powder could fall on to the product. How you interpret the minimum of five NFCS samples is up to you and dependent on the variables in that room. In general, FDA wants to see more samples from Zones 1 and 2 than from Zones 3 and 4.
What is the frequency of testing for Listeria?
Designing the sampling plan for Listeria testing is an art and a science and determines the cost to the company. Here are examples provided in the FDA Listeria Draft Guidance. See pp. 37-38. Pay attention to the wording on frequency:
An example of how to specify the frequency of sample collection in a written environmental monitoring plan for FCSs in an establishment producing an RTE food that supports growth of L. monocytogenes is as follows:
• Collect environmental samples from specific FCSs on the production lines at least once every week when the plant is in operation; and
• Test each FCS in the plant at least once each month.
An example of how to specify the frequency of sample collection in a written environmental monitoring plan for non-FCSs in an establishment producing an RTE food that supports growth of L. monocytogenes is as follows:
• Collect environmental samples from representative sets of non-FCSs at least once weekly for zone 2 sites, every two weeks for zone 3 sites, and monthly for zone 4 sites when the plant is in operation; and
• Test all non-FCS sites identified in the monitoring plan at least once each quarter.
Table 4 in the guidance, pp. 34-35, is the only published FDA guidance on zone designation of which this author is aware. Please share FDA publications on zone designation with me.

5 Signs You Don't Have a Food Safety Culture "Rotten" – An Unlikely Source of Information


One of the best qualities of a wilderness hike is beginning to find yourself. That's also the beginnings of how to present those qualities in the marketplace.
So let's start working on your marketing campaign. I'm going to address this as if you are job seeking, but the same applies to promotions. Later, we'll talk about what to do when there don't seem to be job openings.
I can't even begin to tell you the times I sat across from an applicant trying to drag out information while the candidate sat there quietly merely responding in short sentences when pressed with questions, most of it vague (useless) abstractions and generalities, until I finally gave up and thanked them for coming. Next applicant.
Any good merchant needs to know what goods are in the shop. Any good salesperson needs to…well let's start. Time to change our thinking again.
First, sure, the world is filled with poor sales people. The world is filled with poor musicians too, but you don't let that become what music means to you—you listen to the many, many very good ones. Same here.
Sales does NOT mean hyper-pressure bullshitting. Sales does not mean manipulation. Sales does not mean playing games. Stop that already. Not many will be successful long with that ridiculous strategy.
Rather, sales is service. People have things they need done, and they look for people who can do the job. If I'm looking for a good bass player, I don't care about his rap—I want to hear him play. If I'm looking for a good graphic designer, I want to see a portfolio of her work. If I'm looking for a good construction crew, I want to know what else they've built. I want to know these are the right people for these particular needs.
And that's what good salespeople do. They identify needs and match their skills and service to the client's need. If you're an awesome heavy metal bassist, but I need someone for a jazz gig, you're not the guy, despite your talent. And that's OK. You're not going to hire my jazz bassist to sub for you at a heavy metal gig either. It's about matching needs to services. That's what you're going to do.
Far too many people post a resume online or mail out batches of resumes and sit at home waiting for the phone to ring. Good luck with that. Sure, everything works sometimes. And sure, try everything. But not as your primary strategy, and not if you're managing your time. Prepare to be by the phone a very long time.
Why? You're putting all the work on the employer. YOU are the product expert, because YOU are the one who knows YOU and YOUR SKILLS. Don't simply hope and wait. That's wishful thinking, not a plan. Besides, the employer simply needs a qualified body, and doesn't need to sort through all those resumes online or on the desk. That's not a good use of the employer's time. And it doesn't bring your skills and goals to the forefront of this interaction.
Instead, target jobs. Each resume and cover letter should be tweaked depending on where it's going and for what specific position. Each interview should be carefully prepared especially for that job. And each follow up should solidify what happened at that interview. Be what the employer is looking for, and be ready to ensure that happens, not simply to wait for it to happen magically. It is a huge mistake to just leave yourself open to whatever, applying for anything the employer might have. Rather than improving your chances, this actually hurts them, because you will never appear qualified, let alone best qualified, the majority of time.
Getting the job you actually want is ironically easier than a "I'll take anything" approach. First, you can focus on those specific qualifications, and that already is a better approach, because the employer can see how you would be a good fit. There's an old adage in marketing, "The confused mind says No," and a vague fit is an unclear picture, a No. Second, however dedicated you are to a "vague" job search, you can't help but put far more effort into a search that simply means more to you. You want it. You're determined to get it. You aren't going to let a few setbacks deter you. And finally, you bring an energy, a dedication, an enthusiasm to something you love that shines through—and that is something, when it's genuine, every employer is glad to see. That's the kind of people they want in that job—the kind that were made for it, the kind that love it.
In marketing, businesses often endeavor to find their "niche." You should do the same. Who are the people you love? What kind of people? What do they like to do? What are their lives like? What challenges do they face? These are the kind of people you want to work with—and people who love you, as you are, for who you are, what you think, and how you can help them with a piece of their lives, so much so that they're happy to pay for it. When you find that fit, not only are you happy, but also the business that just hired you feels lucky to have you.
I walk here almost every day — it's a great place to think and reflect.
When I was managing an independent New Age book store, we had one applicant who wasn't really knowledgeable about the store's contents overall, though she could get by as a sales clerk, a pleasant young woman. However, in the back, the store also sold a small selection of cotton drawstring clothing. Now I, true to my gender perhaps, know nothing and care nothing about clothes. But Alya! She started spending all kinds of time back there instead of upfront. When I took a look, she had organized all the various clothes into outfits neatly pinned up at the end of each bookcase stack. "That's nice," I thought. But I had missed the point. Instead of selling a few clothing items here and there, Alya sold people outfit after outfit. People started coming in just for the clothing. She was just doing what she loved—and the store benefited tremendously.
If we don't count sleeping, most people spend more time at work than at home with family. Do what you love. For yourself first—life is meant to be enjoyed. But also for your employer and for the clients you'll serve. Everyone benefits. And that's the way to sell your qualifications for a job.
I believe the message within this post applies to entrepreneurs who are looking perhaps for their next client. You have to be a good salesperson and know yourself, the product. Doing what you love to do, working your passion–an in it–is key. Finding how to do that, whether walking around a lake or simply getting quiet, may be the first step.
That's a good point, Peggy, absolutely. Getting authentic with self lets us focus on which clients with which needs would be a good fit, and then sharing that information with them, so they may decide.


In thread http://scn.sap.com/thread/3702142 it is mentioned that you can save a filter then use this within a data package avoiding the need to prompt for the user to select members.
Using BPC 10.1 NW SP5, EPM Add-in SP20 patch 2 I have saved a filter and have checked to see if other users can also use the filter. I have found that they don't. Although for the user creating the filter, it is available for all packages using the same dimension in the model where the filter is created.
If you are going to link the filter in directly to a script, as per the comment of Vadim Kalinin on 26-Feb-2015 09:04 in thread http://scn.sap.com/thread/3702142, then only users who create a filter with exactly the same name will be able to use the package.
I have been unable to find any documentation about saving of filters within the EPM add-in user guide.
I would like to know how this feature should work, especially when linked to packages via it's script. It would be good to know where in the system the filter is stored.
UJA_FILTER is the table to store filters in xml format.
Yes, this kind of filter is user dependent. If you want using same filter for multiple users then there is a workaround. You can copy that record in UJA_FILTER with a different user ID.This works in case you know list of users who are going to use same filter.
Usually it's not the case. Only a few users will use same filter value; many users can use same filter type, but different filter values must be created manually.

Cristina Ioana Socolan ()  o cântăreață din România. Ea și-a început cariera artistică în anul 2005, când s-a alăturat grupului muzical Elegance. Alături de colaboratoarea sa Isabela "Issa" Casian, interpreta a lansat și primul material discografic de studio din cariera sa, Cine te iubește, un disc de muzică dance ce a fost lansat în același an. Materialul a reprezentat singura apariție a Celiei în discografia formației, ea părăsind Elegance în vara anului 2005.

Ulterior, ea a pus bazele proiectului Celia, acesta fiind și pseudonimul adoptat de artistă în următoarea etapă a carierei sale. În noiembrie 2007 ea a lansat sub egida casei de discuri Cat Music/Media Service albumul de debut, Celia, un disc ce îmbină stilul dance cu muzica house., melodiile albumului fiind compuse de către Costi Ioniță. Materialul a beneficiat de promovare prin intermediul unui număr de patru discuri single — "Pot zbura", "Trag aer în piept", "Șoapte" și "O mie de cuvinte" — unul dintre ele ajungând pe locul 1 în România. La finele anului 2008 a fost lansată compoziția "Silence", înregistrare neinclusă pe albumul Celia, ea marcând o schimbare în stilul muzical abordat de solistă. Melodia a fost compusă de producătorul Costi Ioniță

În vara anului 2009 a început promovarea unui nou extras pe single, "Povestea mea", el beneficiind de un videoclip filmat în Bulgaria și de o versiune în limba engleză, numită "My Story". Varianta în limba engleză a piesei, "My Story", s-a situat pe locul 73 in Top 89 Hit Selection în anul 2011, fiind una dintre cele mai difuzate piese din Statele Unite ale Americii.

În 2011 a avut parte de o revenire spectaculoasă , lansând o serie de noi piese, toate compuse de producătorul său, Costi Ioniță:
D-D-Down,  Ladida Celia feat Chris Trace, cu Shaggy piesa Dame, și cu Kaye Styles piesa It is love. Videoclipul piesei "Is it love" este considerat unul dintre cele mai scumpe videoclipuri realizate în Sud-Estul Europei. Acesta a fost filmat în Ucraina, timp de două zile, de o echipă de profesioniști și producători de filme internaționale. La un moment dat, pentru o anumită scenă, Celia a fost acoperită de 50 de kilograme de miere. Atât piesa cât și videoclipul au făcut furori atât pe piața muzicală din România, cât și pe cea internațională. "Is it love" se bucura de 3 variante: varianta originală, Slow Sweet Version și Sahara Remix.

Odată cu lansarea acestui single, Celia a început să susțină mai multe concerte în străinătate, bucurându-se de un succes fulminant: Marea Britanie., Milano , Santa Cruz de Tenerife și Las Palmas deGrand Canaria, Roma și Spania.

Anii copilăriei și primele activități muzicale
Cristina s-a născut pe data de 14 octombrie 1984 în orașul Deva din județul Hunedoara, România, părinții săi fiind Ioan și Rodica Socolan. Aceasta este unul dintre cei doi copii ai familiei, având încă o soră, Andreea Socolan. Ea a început școala generală în orașul natal, iar din clasa a doua a fost eleva Liceului de Muzică și Arte Plastice "Sigismund Toduță", ale cărui cursuri le-a urmat până în clasa a douăsprezecea, absolvindu-le. La vârsta de doisprezece ani, a început să practice dansurile populare și moderne, fiind aleasă drept solista ansamblului din care făcea parte.

La scurt timp de la încheierea studiilor liceale, Socolan s-a angajat la o agenție ce se ocupa cu organizarea spectacolelor. Concomitent, ea pusese bazele unei formații feminine, cu care cânta în deschiderea evenimentelor coordonate de compania unde lucra. Într-unul dintre concertele susținute în fața publicului, ea a fost remarcată de compozitorul Costi Ioniță, care a ajutat-o să intre în grupul Elegance.

Cariera artistică

2005: Debutul și proiectul «Elegance»
Socolan și-a făcut debutul în viața publică din România prin intermediul grupului muzical Elegance. Aceasta s-a alăturat proiectului în anul 2005, lansând alături de colaboratoarea sa, Isabela "Issa" Casian, un material discografic de studio. Albumul, intitulat Cine te iubește, a fost promovat prin intermediul casei de discuri Cat Music, cu care artista a continuat și ulterior să lucreze. Primul extras pe single de pe disc, "Râd cu tine", a beneficiat de un videoclip și de o campanie de promovare. Cine te iubește conține atât înregistrări noi, cât și o serie de preluări după șlagăre celebre, printre care "Vino bade", "Andrii Popa" sau "Dar-ar naiba-n tine dragoste". Toate compozițiile au fost lansate atât pe compact disc, cât și în format digital. Spre deosebire de materialele anterioare ale formației — promovate înaintea venirii lui Socolan — Cine te iubește este singurul album al grupului ce se distribuie în format digital.

Odată cu încheierea campaniei de promovare a discului, interpreta a decis să părăsească formația în vara anului 2005, fiind determinată să se concentreze asupra unei cariere independente. Astfel, artista a semnat un contract cu vechea sa casă de discuri și a început dezvoltarea unui nou proiect. Mass-media din România susținea că ruptura s-a produs datorită faptului că interpreta Isabela Casian beneficia de cea mai mare parte a promovării care era destinată grupului. Ulterior, solista a declarat despre perioada Elegance următoarele: "În trupa Elegance nu m-am zbătut pentru nimic, nu m-am implicat deloc, mă prezentam unde mi se spunea că avem concerte, emisiuni", spre deosebire de viitoarea carieră, în care "m-am implicat foarte mult și mi-am pus tot sufletul".

2006 — prezent: Cariera solo
În anul 2006 interpreta a părăsit formația Elegance, orientându-se spre o carieră independentă. Aceasta a fost ajutată în construirea noului proiect de compozitorul Costi Ioniță, cu care ea colaborase anterior, ca parte a grupului muzical din care făcea parte. Odată cu începerea noului proiect artistic, Socolan a adoptat și o nouă titulatură, Celia, sub aceasta urmând să fie promovare viitoarele materiale discografice ale sale. Cântăreața a optat pentru acest pseudonim întrucât reprezintă numele ce îi "va aduce succes". În urma acestor schimbări, interpreta a început înregistrările pentru albumul de debut. Una dintre primele compoziții ale solistei a fost prezentată în cadrul Festivalului de la Mamaia din anul 2006, ea fiind intitulată "Clipe cu tine". În aceeași perioadă, Celia a înregistrat balada "Șoapte", pe care a înscris-o în competiția locală a Concursului Muzical Eurovision ce avea să se desfășoare în prima jumătate a anului următor. În urma trierii tuturor pieselor participante, înregistrarea artistei a fost inclusă între cele douăzeci și patru de cântece avansate în cadrul Selecției Naționale 2007. "Șoapte" a fost prezentată în cea de-a doua semifinală a competiției, însă nu a obținut suficiente puncte pentru a fi inclusă pe lista finalistelor.

La scurt timp a fost anunțată lansarea primului extras pe single sub noua titulatură, "Vraja ta". Cu toate acestea, înregistrarea care a beneficiat de un videoclip și de o campanie de promovare a fost "Pot zbura", o colaborare cu Alberto. Piesa a fost compusă de Costi Ioniță, în timp ce versurile au fost realizate de textierul Constantin Neguțu. Cântecul beneficiază și de o versiune în limba engleză, ambele fiind incluse pe materialul de debut al Celiei. "Pot zbura" nu a obținut un număr semnificativ de difuzări din partea posturilor de radio sau a celor de televiziune, nereușind să intre în ierarhia oficială din România. La scurt timp a început promovarea unui nou extras pe single, "Trag aer în piept", care a fost lansat și în format digital într-un interval de câteva săptămâni. Videoclipul acestei înregistrări a fost filmat în orașul Sibiu, materialul fiind regizat de Mihnea de Vries și Alexandra Anghel. Spre deosebire de predecesorul său, "Trag aer în piept" a devenit în scurt timp un șlagăr, ocupând treapta cu numărul 3 în Romanian Top 100 timp de cinci săptămâni consecutive.

Albumul de debut al solistei a fost lansat la scurt timp, startul comercializării începând pe data de 6 noiembrie 2007. Materialul, intitulat Celia, a fost produs în totalitate de Costi Ioniță, el incluzând atât primele două discuri single, cât și primele cântece ale solistei, "Șoapte" și "Clipe cu tine". Cea de-a treia piesă promovată de pe disc a fost chiar balada "Șoapte". Artista a decis să lanseze această înregistrare în urma reacțiilor pozitive stârnite de ea în rândul fanilor săi. Compoziția a debutat pe treapta cu numărul 97 în ierarhia din România și a ocupat prima poziție, devenind prima clasare pe locul 1 a Celiei în Romanian Top 100. Ultimul single al albumului — "O mie de cuvinte" — a beneficiat și el de un videoclip și de promovare. Deși posturile de radio îi recomandaseră Celiei să lanseze înregistrarea "Mi-este dor de tine" ca succesor al baladei "Șoapte", aceasta a optat pentru "O mie de cuvinte". Scurtmetrajul a fost filmat în Pădurea Snagov, materialul fiind regizat de Petre Năstase. Pentru a-și promova discul, cântăreața a pornit într-un turneu național.

2006 — prezent: colaborarea cu Costi Sebe (managerul și producătorul ei)
La finele anului 2008 a început campania de promovare a unui nou extras pe single al interpretei. Piesa, intitulată "Silence", a avut premiera pe postul de radio Vibe FM, pe data de 17 noiembrie. Înregistrarea prezenta o schimbare în stilul abordat de Celia până la acel moment, ea afișând influențe de muzică techno sau minimal. Aceste particularități diferențiază "Silence" de șlagărele anterioare ale solistei. Compoziția a intrat în ierarhiile compilate de posturile de radio din România, în ciuda faptului că nu a beneficiat de un videoclip, spre deosebire de cântecele promovate anterior. Cântecul a fost înregistrat pentru cel de-al doilea album al interpretei, material ce se preconiza că va apărea în prima jumătate a anului următor. Înaintea lansării propriu-zise a discului, se anunțase promovarea unui nou extras pe single, acesta beneficiind de un videoclip. Cu toate acestea, startul comercializării a fost amânat pentru anul 2010. În aceeași perioadă, Celia a promovat și compoziția "Lacrimi reci", o înregistrare similară cu "Silence", ea fiind interpretată și în cadrul emisiunii Happy Hour în luna martie 2009.

În vara anului 2009 solista a filmat un videoclip pentru înregistrarea "Povestea mea", cântec ce urmează a fi inclus pe cel de-al doilea album. Pentru această compoziție Celia a apelat din nou la producătorul Costi Ioniță, textul fiind scris de ea însăși. Scurtmetrajul a fost filmat în Bulgaria, la Palatul Regelui Simeon al II-lea, premiera sa având loc pe data de 30 iunie 2009. "Povestea mea" beneficiază și de o versiune în limba engleză — "My Story" — care prezintă versuri modificate și influențe de muzică trance. Artista s-a declarat mulțumită de rezultat, afirmând că dorește să lucreze în continuare în Bulgaria. Cântecul a fost interpretat într-o serie de emisiuni televizate, printre care și Trezirea la apel, difuzată de postul de televiziune TVR 1 pe data de 4 septembrie 2009, unde Celia a declarat și faptul că următorul material discografic va fi lansat în cursul anului 2010, după promovarea unui nou extras pe single.

În ultima parte a anului 2009 a fost anunțat faptul că solista a înregistrat un duet cu formația Direcția 5. Piesa, intitulată "Decembrie", reprezintă prima colaborare a interpretei de la "Pot zbura". Cântăreața s-a declarat încântată de rezultat, afirmând: "Sunt fericită pentru această colaborare, având în vedere că Direcția 5 e o trupă pe care o apreciez de mulți ani". Înregistrarea a fost lansată în format digital la finele anului 2009. În aceeași perioadă, cântăreața a participat și la preselecțiile organizate pentru Concursul Muzical Eurovision 2010, ea imprimând în acest scop piesa "Reason to Love". Compoziția nu a reușit să se claseze în finala Selecției Naționale 2010, primind doar șaizeci și patru de puncte din partea juriului. Pentru noul material, artista a colaborat și cu Kaye Styles, unul dintre interpreții ce a colaborat la coloana sonoră a serialului Prison Break. Impresarul Celiei dorește să promoveze una dintre compozițiile cu Styles, înregistrare ce va fi lansată în peste șaizeci de țări. Solista a confirmat în emisiunea Poveștiri de noapte, de pe Acasă TV, faptul că va prezenta în curând noul său proiect, interpretând totodată și cântecul "My Story".

A colaborat cu Chris Thrace la piesa Lalida, lansată pe data de 15 iulie 2011. și cu Shaggy la cântecul Dame,  aflată pe albumul Summer in Kingston. A lansat și o piesă solo, D-D-Down, dar și un videoclip, Is it Love, la care a colaborat alături de Kaye Styles și care a apărut pe data de 2 septembrie 2011. Filmările au avut loc în Ucraina și Rusia și au durat trei zile. Este considerat cel mai scump videoclip din Europa de Sud-Est și a fost produs de Costi Ioniță. A apărut pe coperta revistei FHM, ediția din ianuarie 2012, cu scopul promovării acestei piese..

Stil muzical și influențe

Primul gen muzical abordat de interpretă a fost cel dance, el constituind stilul predominant al albumului lansat în colaborare cu Isabela "Issa" Casian în timpul perioadei Elegance, Cine te iubește. Ulterior, Socolan a decis să păstreze această direcție muzicală pe primul său material discografic de studio Celia, adoptând totuși o serie de influențe house. Discul a fost realizat în concordanță cu tendințele stilistice ale muzicii de consum din perioada respectivă. Albumul de debut al cântăreței prezintă însă și balada "Șoapte", o înregistrare ce include elemente ale muzicii pop. Datorită succesului întâmpinat de aceasta, interpreta a continuat să apeleze la această strategie și pentru varianta în limba română a cântecului "Povestea mea". Ambele compoziții beneficiază de versiuni alternative, ele fiind cântece ritmate, spre deosebire de originale. "Șoapte (RMX)" abordează un stil similar cu celelalte înregistrări de pe Celia, în timp ce "My Story" se axează pe tendințele muzicale actuale, dance și trance. De asemenea, "Silence" adoptă aceleași trăsături precum "My Story", cântecul prezentând influențe ale stilurilor techno, minimal, electronic, tech house.

Până în prezent, interpreta a lucrat la materialele sale discografice cu producătorul Costi Ioniță, el fiind compozitorul tuturor cântecelor sale, Celia manifestându-și aprecierea pentru rezultatele colaborării. De asemenea, Socolan a declarat că printre artiștii internaționali pe care îi simpatizează se numără Adele sau James Blunt.

Viață personală
La scurt timp după despărțirea de formația Elegance, publicațiile din România au avansat ideea că Socolan ar fi început o relație de dragoste cu producătorul Costi Ioniță, care se despărțise de fosta colegă a interpretei în aceeași perioadă. Aceste informații au fost infirmate ulterior de solistă, ea declarând: "nu am avut nici o relație cu Costi [Ioniță], au fost niște zvonuri neadevărate ieșite imediat după despărțirea de trupa Elegance". În aceeași perioadă, artista a început o relație cu omul de afaceri de origine turcă Askim Kemal. Încă din anul 2008 cei doi hotărâseră să se căsătorească, nunta fiind programată pentru luna anului octombrie 2010, însă s-au despărțit la scurt timp. Ulterior, cei doi și-au reluat relația, însă au întrerupt-o din nou la începutul anului 2010. Conform publicațiilor din România, solista a pus capăt legăturii datorită faptului că logodnicul său i-a impus să își încheie cariera artistică odată cu oficierea căsătoriei. Tatăl ei a decedat în mai 2011, în timp ce ea concerta în Satu Mare. Din octombrie 2011 se află într-o relație de prietenie cu Mihai Bendeac, alături de care a filmat un moment umoristic în cadrul emisiunii "În puii mei", interpretând rolul Laviniei Pârvu.

Tag: HTC 10
HTC 10 unveiled: 5.2-inch QHD display, 12 UltraPixel camera with laser autofocus
Published on April 12, 2016 June 6, 2016 by Elie ChahineLeave a comment
On its website today, HTC unveiled the HTC 10. This is the phone HTC hopes will take on Samsung's Galaxy S7, LG's G5, and Apple's iPhone 7.
HTC's latest attempt to save its smartphone business is a flagship with the tagline "Power of 10" which, apparently, symbolizes "greatness and independence but also that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts." In other words, the company claims — just as every other smartphone manufacturer tries to — that the latest flagship offers more than just a new metal design, better camera, and improved performance.
And yet, those are indeed the highlights that HTC insists will save it.
HTC's press release, leaked to us ahead of the official announcement, uses nonsense marketing-speak like "inspired by light and sculpted to perfection" when describing the new design. But in short, you can expect a full glass front that merges with the metal body.
The company also notes that the HTC 10 was subjected to over 168 hours of extreme temperature tests, ranging from -20°C (-4°F) to 60°C (140°F), plus over 10,000 drop, bend, scratch, and corrosion tests. Is this finally a phone that absolutely doesn't need a case? Probably not, but one can sure dream.
Next up, the camera features "the world's first optically stabilized, larger aperture f/1.8 lenses" on both the front and rear cameras, larger sensors, 12 million UltraPixels (1.55um per pixel), laser autofocus on the back, plus a wide-angle lens and screen flash on the front. The HTC 10's camera is also designed to launch "in as little as 0.6 seconds." RAW format support is also a go.
HTC also claims that the 10 features "the world's first stereo 24-bit Hi-Res audio recording, capturing 256 times more detail than standard recordings, across twice the frequency range." The phone includes a headphone amp that delivers "two times the power of a conventional headphone amp," the ability to upscale from 16-bit to 24-bit audio, and digital to analog conversion. You can even create your personal audio tuned to your individual hearing. The BoomSound Hi-Fi speakers feature a separated tweeter and woofer design, and a dedicated amplifier for each.
And finally, performance. HTC says the 10's quad HD display is 30 percent more colorful and 50 percent more responsive to touch than its predecessor. The company says its fingerprint scanner unlocks in 0.2 seconds and is algorithmically designed to recognize you faster over time. It also claims that its battery can be charged to 50 percent in just 30 minutes.
Last, but not least, HTC has created a new Freestyle Layout, which essentially means you don't have to organize your apps in a grid anymore. You can place icons, stickers, and widgets anywhere you like, organize by layers and groups, link stickers to apps, or even get rid of icons altogether.
Here are the HTC 10's specs:
Display: 5.2-inch, Quad HD (2560 x 1440 pixels), super LCD 5
CPU: Qualcomm Snapdragon 820
Platform: Android 6.0 with HTC Sense
Memory: 4GB RAM, 32GB/64GB storage expandable up to 2TB via microSD
Rear Camera: 12MP (HTC UltraPixel 2), laser autofocus, Optical Image Stabilization (OIS), f/1.8 aperture, Pro mode, Auto-HDR, Zoe Capture, hyperlapse, 12X Slow motion mode, 4K video recording with Hi-Res Audio
Front Camera: 5MP (1.34MICROm pixels), autofocus, Optical Image Stabilization (OIS), f/1.8 aperture with ultra wide-angle lens, Live Makeup, Auto-HDR
Sound: HTC BoomSound Hi-Fi Edition, Dolby Audio, Personal Audio Profile, Hi-Res Audio Certified, Hi-Res Audio Earphones, Three microphones with noise cancellation, Hi-Res Audio Stereo Recording
Connection: USB Type-C
SIM card: Nano SIM
Connectivity: NFC, BT 4.2, Wi-Fi@: 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac (2.4 & 5 GHz)
Sensors: Fingerprint Sensor, Sensor Hub
The HTC 10 starts shipping this month in four colors: Carbon Grey, Glacier Silver, Topaz Gold, and Camellia Red.

Queen Elizabeth II, UK's Longest Serving Monarch, Dies Aged 96

Apple Is Doing Away With Physical SIM Cards For The iPhone 14
Queen Elizabeth II, the longest serving monarch in United Kingdom's history, has passed away aged 96. The news was officially communicated by Palace officials about an hour ago. The Queen was under medical observation for several days, as her health started to severely deteriorate starting early this week. Her family gathered at her Scottish estate after concerns grew about her health earlier on Thursday.
Having come to the the throne in 1952, the queen reigned United Kingdom and the commonwealth realm for over seven decades, making her the longest serving monarch in British history. With her death, her eldest son, Charles, becomes King Charles III, and the head of state for 14 Commonwealth realms, reported by BBC. He said the death of his beloved mother was "a moment of great sadness".
In a statement, His Majesty the King said: "We mourn profoundly the passing of a cherished Sovereign and a much-loved Mother. I know her loss will be deeply felt throughout the country, the Realms and the Commonwealth, and by countless people around the world."
The Queen passed away at her remote Balmoral home in Scotland. In a statement, Buckingham Palace said: "The Queen died peacefully at Balmoral this afternoon."

The Palace statement further added, "The King and the Queen Consort will remain at Balmoral this evening and will return to London tomorrow."
Early Thursday morning, doctors had put the Queen under medical supervision, post which all of her children travelled to Balmoral, near Aberdeen.

If you're anything like us, you're feeling pretty smug about this amazing weather we've been having, right? And if you're soon to visit London, dare we say it – it even feels like summer?
We don't want to jinx anything and we're certainly not complaining, we just want you to be prepared and ready for when the sun rocks up in all her glory again… and hopefully again.
When the sun is blazing, the city is booming and everyone wants to catch their share of the rays. Hot tube rides and busy tourist spots can get stuffy and the thought of a gentle breeze sounds like heaven.
We've found all the best spots for you to cool down, unwind and maybe even dip your toe in the cool end when you're not relaxing in your centrally located London apartment.
A beauty spot for London and a life saver for cooling off. Originally dammed off clay pits, the three pools are open to women, men and mixed groups. Even in the height of summer, the water is still chilly so you're guaranteed a refreshing dip.
Located in the heart of hipster central, Hackney, London Fields can get busy but it's worth a visit. Unlike the Swimming Ponds, the lido is heated – it might not be as cool but there'll be no shock to the system and you can enjoy it on cooler days too.
This is lido is nothing short of fantastic. It's over 100 years old and spans 90 metres of water. The beauty of this spot is that even on sunny days, with lots of people poolside, there's still always plenty of room to swim.
Perfect for a solo cool off, couples, families, you name it. It's open from 10am until 6pm, with a sun terrace and sun bathing area for catching rays too. The Serpentine is a natural, no chlorine, no heat spot and the water is checked weekly to ensure quality. There's also a separate heated, chlorinated kids pool too.
If lidos aren't your thing, The Berkeley is the place for you. Its stunning rooftop pool is available to non hotel guests for a daily fee and it's truly a refreshing gem on a hot summer's day. The seventh floor pool is what tranquil dreams are made of and it even boasts panoramic views of London too. You can also enjoy the secret garden, where sun loungers are among green leaves and fragrant flowers.


This week I shared our indoor plant science observations and one of the ways the kids made their window garden special was to make plant markers to label each pot.
We kept it very simple. You know by now that all my artsy-crafty projects are super simple. The purpose of a post like this is not to encourage you to imitate our exact project but to share how easy ideas to keep the kids entertained are always right around the corner. Use whatever materials you already have at home to fashion your own one-of-a-kind plant markers!
Since this is an indoor garden project, we didn't need the markers to be weatherproof. The basic structure is a rectangle of cardboard glued to a wooden craft stick. I cut up a cracker box and it was perfect.
I wanted the boys to decorate them however they wanted so they dug through our sticker box and added a bit of glitter glue for some added bling.
For my 5 year old, I wrote down the name of the plant and he applied the corresponding letter sticker on top. See how I snuck in a bit of literacy right there?
I think they add a bit of fun to our window. What do you think?

Losing a job can be devastating, especially when the job loss was unexpected.
Unemployment can turn life upside down due to the loss of income, as well as loss of any benefits that your job may have provided.
Fortunately, government assistance is available to provide financial support while you are between jobs, if you qualify.
Unemployment insurance (UI) assists qualifying unemployed and underemployed workers with monetary benefits.
These temporary benefits can help cover some of the loss of income that a worker may experience.
In order to receive them, beneficiaries are required to submit weekly claims and actively search for work. Learn more about weekly UI benefits below.
Learn How to Receive Unemployment Insurance Benefits
The Unemployment Insurance program provides financial unemployment benefits to qualifying workers.
This includes those who have become unemployed or underemployed through no fault of their own.
These benefits are offered in order to provide temporary financial assistance and relieve some of the burden that naturally comes with losing employment.
Understanding Unemployment Insurance Laws
The UI program has some differences within every state, as the states are provided with the freedom to determine eligibility, benefit amounts and benefit lengths within federal guidelines.
Therefore, it is important to familiarize yourself with your own state program in order to be better prepared for the unemployment benefits process.
Most state UI benefits are funded through a tax that is imposed upon employers.
This tax helps cover weekly payments made towards eligible unemployment beneficiaries after a claim has been filed.
While the tax is imposed on employers, federal law restricts companies from passing any of this tax onto their employers. Therefore, in most states employees never pay for unemployment insurance.
What are the requirements for unemployment insurance benefits?
In order to receive UI benefits, you must meet the eligibility requirements that have been set by your state program.
While these requirements may vary, qualifications do follow general guidelines. For example, to be eligible for benefits you must have worked a minimum amount of time.
This period of time is referred to as your "base period."
For most states, your base period is the first four out of the last five finished calendar quarters, prior to the date that you file your first claim.
The number of wages that you must have earned during your base period must also meet state-set minimums.
Not only do these amounts determine your eligibility for UI benefits, but they also factor into the amount of benefits that you may be eligible to receive.
You can only receive unemployment benefits if your state program considers you to not be at fault for your unemployment or underemployed status.
This means that, in most cases, you cannot have voluntarily left your place of employment, and your job loss cannot be related to disciplinary actions.
As soon as you become unemployed, it is crucial that you contact your state unemployment agency to learn how to file for UI benefits.
Depending on the state that you are filing in, you may be permitted to apply online, over the phone or at your local unemployment office.
To file an unemployment claim, you must provide information related to yourself and former employers, including the names, addresses and working dates for former employers.
In order to ensure that your application is processed quickly and accurately, it is important to review all of the information you provide and ensure that all of the information provided is truthful and accurate.
On average, it can take two to three weeks from the date that you file your first unemployment claim to receive your first benefit payment. However, if your previous employer contests your unemployment claim, it may take longer for you to begin to receive benefits.
Discover Unemployment Insurance Benefits
In most cases, unemployment benefit amounts are based upon a percentage of your earnings over the most recent 52-week period.
In addition, each state UI program has its own maximum benefit amount limits. Benefits are paid for a maximum of 26 months across most states.
However, in some cases, benefits may be provided for longer during times of high unemployment.
This determination is made by the state Unemployment Insurance program. Unemployment Insurance benefits are also subject to federal income taxes.
When filing for unemployment benefits, you will be given the option as to whether or not to have tax withheld by the unemployment agency.
Learn About Filing Weekly or Bi-Weekly Unemployment Claims While Receiving Benefits
In order to receive benefits from the UI program, you will be required to file weekly or biweekly claims, depending on the state you are filing with.
Each claim will ask you to respond to questions regarding your continued eligibility, as well as to report any earnings from work that you have had.
Additionally, you must report any job offers you have received and whether or not you have refused any job offers.
Depending on the state you are filing with, you may be able to file your unemployment benefits claim online, over the phone, by mail or by visiting your local unemployment office.
While receiving benefits, you may occasionally be instructed to visit your local claims office. Should you fail to appear at the right date and time for an interview, your benefits may be denied, reduced or revoked.
How can you continue to qualify for unemployment insurance benefits?
If you are approved to receive UI benefits, you will need to meet additional qualifications while receiving benefits under the state program.
For example, you may be directed to register with your state unemployment office for assistance in your job search.
When receiving benefits, you must continue to seek new employment opportunities, track the efforts that you have made to find new employment and report this information to your unemployment office when filing your weekly or biweekly claims.
In an effort to assist UI beneficiaries in finding new employment opportunities, most state offices provide several re-employment services.
Your state office may be able to provide you with a list of job openings within your area, refer you to free job training programs, provide job counseling, assist you with resume building, refer you to other agencies and more.
Discover Unemployment Insurance Disqualifications
When filing a claim for Unemployment Insurance, your local unemployment office will carefully examine the reason for your job loss.
If you lost your job for any reason other than "lack of work," your eligibility must be determined before benefits can be issued to you.
If you are denied unemployment benefits, you have the legal right to an appeal. Should you choose to appeal, you must do so within a set period of time after your denial letter has been issued.
The cut-off date to file unemployment appeals will be listed on your denial letter.
While filing an appeal does not guarantee that a decision regarding your unemployment benefits will be changed, it does provide a detailed second look at your case in order to ensure that a decision was not reached in error.
