project consent forms 2017-2021

George Church is certainly much more on the ambitious side of science but if you really read between his words, he’s not very supportive of Jiankui He but he’s willing to be the devil’s advocate on this subject. He’s cut from a similar cloth as Craig Venter in that they both talk a big show but back up their data with a lot of really careful science and ethics.George Church also clearly points to the Jesse Gelsinger moments and mentions the damage that experiment has done to the field particularly on his own work on gene therapy. But he is also careful to point out that as unethical and reckless Jiankui He was, he hasn’t killed anyone‡ yet.But again, you have to look at this opening part of the interview: I’d just as well not hang myself out to dry with someone I barely know, but I feel an obligation to be balanced about it. I’m sitting in the middle and everyone else is so extreme that it makes me look like his buddy.George Church is right that Jiankui He failed to do the necessary paperwork. But in this situation, the paperwork was a pretty serious thing to not do and probably filling out the paperwork would have stopped a lot of this eons ago. Not having IRBs, consent forms, failure to register a human clinical trial, and not even hitting the right target are pretty bad things and even illegal steps to forget.The correct way to look at this is to compare Jiankui He’s work to Craig Venter’s “life creation” experiment. Craig Venter knew how to spin the press to get the right buzz to his project but when he was summoned to testify in front of Congress, you knew he did his due diligence to make sure that everything was done safely and ethically and people recognized that he was just talking hypotheticals. Jiankui He did none of that. He actually tasted the forbidden fruit rather than just talk about it and that justifiably deserves questioning.But I think George Church is right to stand up for Jiankui He even if he doesn’t deserve protection. The community can just as easily overreact and put in overly strict regulations. The EU is a good example of an over reaction to GMOs and the US is a good example of an over reaction to human stem cell research. The community is talking about a moratorium on human gene editing but that could easily become a ban on human gene editing research if overzealous politicians get involved.Thus, you need voices like George Church’s to push back and remind people that we still need some capability to move the field forward without over regulation that could kill the field entirely.

NOOOOOOO. You are talking to a military romance scammer. I received an email from the US Army that directly answers your question that is pasted below please keep reading.I believe you are the victim of a military Romance Scam whereas the person you are talking to is a foreign national posing as an American Soldier claiming to be stationed overseas on a peacekeeping mission. That's the key to the scam they always claim to be on a peacekeeping mission.Part of their scam is saying that they have no access to their money that their mission is highly dangerous.If your boyfriend girlfriend/future husband/wife is asking you to do the following or has exhibited this behavior, it is a most likely a scam:Moves to private messaging site immediately after meeting you on Facebook or SnapChat or Instagram or some dating or social media site. Often times they delete the site you met them on right after they asked you to move to a more private messaging siteProfesses love to you very quickly & seems to quote poems and song lyrics along with using their own sort of broken language, as they profess their love and devotion quickly. They also showed concern for your health and love for your family.Promises marriage as soon as he/she gets to state for leave that they asked you to pay for.They Requests money (wire transfers) and Amazon, iTune ,Verizon, etc gift cards, for medicine, religious practices, and leaves to come home, internet access, complete job assignments, help sick friend, get him out of trouble, or anything that sounds fishy.The military does prall the soldier needs including food medical Care and transportation for leave. Trust me, I lived it, you are probably being scammed. I am just trying to show you examples that you are most likely being connned.Below is an email response I received after I sent an inquiry to the US government when I discovered I was scammed. I received this wonderful response back with lots of useful links on how to find and report your scammer. And how to learn more about Romance Scams.Right now you can also copy the picture he gave you and do a google image search and you will hopefully see the pictures of the real person he is impersonating. this doesn't always work and take some digging. if you find the real person you can direct message them and alert them that their image is being used for scamming.Good Luck to you and I'm sorry this may be happening to you. please continue reading the government response I received below it's very informative.   You have contacted an email that is monitored by the U.S. Army Criminal Investigation Command.

HPCL came for campus recruitment process at NIT Surat on 21–22–23 March,2021 for 4 branch - ME,EE,CE,CS.There were 7 steps involved in the process.Google Consent form & ShortlistHPCL Application FormPre- Placement talkDocuments VerificationGroup TaskInterviewMedical Check-upAfter filling up a Google consent, they shortlisted the candidates based on their CGPAHere,nothing can be predicted.Apparently they don't follow any rules,it is completely based on their mind set for Campus they are visiting and critical vacancies for particular branch & for particular Category.nothing is fixed here,you just need to crossed your fingers.like in our campus,they have shortlisted 48 students-24 from computer(yeah 24,you read it correct) and 24 from ME,EE,CE combined.But I heard from my friend that at COEP Pune they shortlisted only 16 students( 4 from each branch and 4 branch were allowed), I may be wrong here,don't know exactly, it's data given by friend. So, like I said nothing can be predicted.Now,students who have shortlisted for further process had to fill HPCL Application Form.It was divided into 2 step. In first step,you need to fill your personal details(Name,Address,DOB,Signature,Photograph,Resume etc). In second step,you need to fill your Acedamics details(10th,12th, semester SGPA,internship experience etc). Now,most importantly, in second step,you also need to fill some HR Questions. based on which you will be judged in the interview,they will crossed check those answers during interview,so fill it very carefully.HR Questions :On 21 March,2021 there was a Pre-Placement Talk, HR member discussed about HPCL. It's SBU,CTC structure, Selection process, what Responsibility and Role will be given to candidates once they get selected,Job location etc..there was Q & A round also where one can ask doubts.( In short, you should do your homework because “ first impression stays last”) she asked us so many questions regarding Company to make it more interesting.Here,I suggest if you have any doubts or you want to know some insight about Company then ask them directly without any second thought, I bet you nobody can give you better answers than HR,you will not find that answer on Quora or Google on any other platform.Immediately after Pre placement talk, they called for Documents Verification one by one.Required documents( original + one set of photocopy) :10th Marksheet/ DOB CertificateSemester MarksheetCaste certificate ( SC/ ST/OBC)HPCL Application FormNext day in Group Task they divided 24 students into 3 group( 8 in each). It is mainly elimination round than selection round, I can say. 2 Students from first group, 2 from second group and 4 from third group was shortlisted for interview. You can speak in any language here,you can mix two language also,no issue. Analytical thinking and framing your thoughts in a logical manner is must to clear the GD. Least I can say, it’s 50% luck, you never know what they are looking for in candidates. Some performed very well still couldn't clear it.We were given 10 min to read case study and then after 20 min to discuss. Topic was same for first 2 group.Topic of our group( in short) :“ You all are a member of one committee which is made for solving the problems going on in entire world, you have limited resources and time,so which one you pick first and why?And how are you gonna solve the particular problem? 1 paragraph for each problem was given with enough data and total 5 problems were there.”Quality of food given to financially lower class & people died per year because of Hunger.Water pollution.Climate changeWomen's safety & securitySecurity & peace of world from terrosrist.Another topic from another group( roughly know)“ Plane crashed in desert. In this situation which 5 things you should pick from plane before it blast to survive”Now, HPCL is well known for asking mainly HR questions and question from internship and final year project in interview. From everone’s interview experience here, I can tell that one should focus more on HR questions than the technical question. No subjects need to be studied thoroughly. You should know basic about all the the subjects that's it.you never know what you will be asked. You can read interview experience of others and from that you can get the idea about interview. Selection will be based on so many parameters, toppers have a edge here! Finally 3 out of 8 was selected for medical check up.( 2 from mechanical and 1 from civil). In computer, 4 was finally selected out of 24.Medical check up was held on next day of interview process, as I didn't get selected I don't have idea about medical tests. But one of my friend told me that it was just a cake walk!Hope this answer will help you,Thanks!

Departments of education and school districts always have to make decisions about what to include in their curriculum.  There are a lot of life skills that people need that aren't taught in school.  The question is should those skills be taught in schools?I teach high school, so I'll talk about that.  The typical high school curriculum is supposed to give students a broad-based education that prepares them to be citizens in a democracy and to be able to think critically.  For a democracy to work, we need educated, discerning citizens with the ability to make good decisions based on evidence and objective thought.  In theory, people who are well informed about history, culture, science, mathematics, etc., and are capable of critical, unbiased thinking, will have the tools to participate in a democracy and make good decisions for themselves and for society at large.  In addition to that, they should be learning how to be learners, how to do effective, basic research, and collaborate with other people.  If that happens, figuring out how to do procedural tasks in real life should not prmuch of a challenge.  We can't possibly teach every necessary life skill people need, but we can help students become better at knowing how to acquire the skills they need.  Should we teach them how to change a tire when they can easily consult a book or search the internet to find step by step instructions for that?  Should we teach them how to balance a check book or teach them how to think mathematically and make sense of problems so that the simple task of balancing a check book (which requires simple arithmetic and the ability to enter numbers and words in columns and rows in obvious ways) is easy for them to figure out.  If we teach them to be good at critical thinking and have some problem solving skills they will be able to apply those overarching skills to all sorts of every day tasks that shouldn't be difficult for someone with decent cognitive ability  to figure out.  It's analogous to asking why a culinary school didn't teach its students the steps and ingredients to a specific recipe.  The school taught them about more general food preparation and food science skills so that they can figure out how to make a lot of specific recipes without much trouble.  They're also able to create their own recipes.So, do we want citizens with very specific skill sets that they need to get through day to day life or do we want citizens with critical thinking, problem solving, and other overarching cognitive skills that will allow them to easily acquire ANY simple, procedural skill they may come to need at any point in their lives?

Years ago I worked at document management company.  There is cool software that can automate aspects of hand-written forms.  We had an airport as a customer - they scanned plenty and (as I said before) this was several years ago...On your airport customs forms, the "boxes" that you 'need' to write on - are basically invisible to the scanner - but are used because then us humans will tend to write neater and clearer which make sit easier to recognize with a computer.  Any characters with less than X% accuracy based on a recognition engine are flagged and shown as an image zoomed into the particular character so a human operator can then say "that is an "A".   This way, you can rapidly go through most forms and output it to say - an SQL database, complete with link to original image of the form you filled in.If you see "black boxes" at three corners of the document - it is likely set up for scanning (they help to identify and orient the page digitally).  If there is a unique barcode on the document somewhere I would theorize there is an even higher likelihood of it being scanned - the document is of enough value to be printed individually which costs more, which means it is likely going to be used on the capture side.   (I've noticed in the past in Bahamas and some other Caribbean islands they use these sorts of capture mechanisms, but they have far fewer people entering than the US does everyday)The real answer is: it depends.  Depending on each country and its policies and procedures.  Generally I would be surprised if they scanned and held onto the paper.   In the US, they proably file those for a set period of time then destroy them, perhaps mining them for some data about travellers. In the end,  I suspect the "paper-to-data capture" likelihood of customs forms ranges somewhere on a spectrum like this:Third world Customs Guy has paper to show he did his job, paper gets thrown out at end of shift. ------  We keep all the papers! everything is scanned as you pass by customs and unique barcodes identify which flight/gate/area the form was handed out at, so we co-ordinate with cameras in the airport and have captured your image.  We also know exactly how much vodka you brought into the country. :)

I strongly recommend purchasing a tax program, Turbo tax, H&R block etc.These programs will ask you questions and they will fill out the forms for you.You just print it out and mail it in. (with a check, if you owe anything)I used to use an accountant but these programs found more deductions.

Yes, you do. Census helps the government/private companies know the number and the types of people in your town/state/country. When you prinformation, you get better service.If you're worried about your personal information getting leaked, don't be. A census usually only requires your name and the no. of people in your house (depends on the scale of the census)You got to nothing to lose anyway. Just give the information. It'll take less than 5 minutes.

I hate when people ask a question, then rather than answer, someone jumps in and tells them they don't need to know--but today, I will be that guy, because this is serious.Why oh why do you think you can do this yourself?Two things to consider:People who get a masters degree in Accounting then go get a CPA then start doing taxes--only then do some of them start specializing in international accounting.  I've taught Accounting at the college-level, have taken tax classes beyond that, and wouldn't touch your return.Tax professionals generally either charge by the form or by the hour. Meaning you can sit and do this for 12 hours, or you can pay a CPA by the hour to do it, or you can go to an H&R Block that has flat rates and will do everything but hit Send for free.  So why spend 12 hours doing it incorrectly, destined to worry about the IRS putting you in jail, bankrupting you, or deporting you for the next decade when you can get it done professionally for $200-$300?No, just go get it done right.
