...would be presumed. Since unpaid interns still require resources from companies, the resources previously used for unpaid internships could be turned into wages. Moreover, companies will likely hire additional individuals to complete any work that is absolutely necessary. Finally, those fields that traditionally require job applicants to have completed internships, like journalism, would have to pay students to work for them. This prediction isn’t speculation—within less than a week of the Times article’s publication investigating the legality of internships, one media outlet discovered apparently previously...
...problem with that little paragraph is that I barely saw it during this past job/internship application cycle (and not because I was accepted to everything. We should all be so lucky). Chances are, if you were applying for jobs, you didn’t see it much either because many employers have adopted what can only be described as a silent treatment toward those less-than-worthy applicants. This means that applicants who are not passed to further rounds are never notified of their rejected status. This policy is unreasonable and disrespectful. Employers need to treat their applicants with...
...help but see causes for alarm. U.S. forces, barred by a 2008 security agreement from entering the capital without an Iraqi invitation, have been called to assist with the investigation into the recent bombings. U.S. military and law enforcement are working shoulder to shoulder with Iraqis for on-the-job training in intelligence gathering and sharing and crime-scene investigation. Bombs that had been rigged at two houses were disabled on Tuesday based on tips, and nearly a dozen people have been arrested by Iraqi security forces based on confessions related to earlier bombings...
...local levels of government, where there are strong incentives to overlook safety problems. "The people who are tasked with doing the investigations are the same people who have financial interests in the mines themselves," says Crothall. "You can't really rely on them to do a thorough or independent job." Mining usually pays much better wages than farming, and in some parts of China's central northern coal belt, the taxes paid by mines make up the bulk of local government revenues...
...Bieniawski's job to convince countries to give up their HEU and send it to either the U.S. or Russia. So far, the NNSA has removed a total of 5,935 lbs. (2,692 kg) of fissile material from 37 countries and has its sights on 4,190 lbs. (1,900 kg) more. To meet that goal, Obama has asked for the program's budget to be increased by 67% percent to $560 million next year. But many countries see HEU-fueled research reactors as symbols of prestige and don't necessarily share U.S. and Russian concern that fissile material...
