Views on carbon black as a product?

Anyone has insights into whether we can claim depreciation for our “home office” due to WFH? Not an expert here but looks like it’s for self employed individuals only, but maybe the individual tax experts in this community can help everyone out a bit 🤪

Looking forward to a week of relaxation then Continuous Skill Development

If I have two 401ks (current job and previous job), does the 19k limit apply to both of them together or 19k each?

If I were to rollover a pension lump sum into one of those 401ks, is counted towards the $19k limit? Or is rollover classified differently and I could still continue to contribute to my current 401k?

Please suggest me to decide the company:

11 years in automation.
1. EPAM Anywhere - giving 25.2LPA (Fixed) and 80k joining bonus - as Sr Test Engineer.
2. HCL - giving 28.8 fixed and 3.2 as variable - as Test Manager

Looking for UI Architect candidates that have heavy front end enterprise wide application experience including knowledge of Angular and/or React. Remote position but need to be legally able to work in the US with no sponsorship. No C2C or agencies please.

Wondering what the comp is for SC’s & M’s at Canadian firms? All these American numbers are making me feel very underpaid...

Hello fishes

Hi Folks,
What is job security and stability in Cyber security consulting practice in EY . One of my friend got offer with 50% raise to what he is currently taking, he is on H1-B , he just want to be on safe side before making move. Appreciate your quick response.

My boss assigns projects with unclear expectations and provides no guidance on how to achieve them.

I've asked for help, and, to avoid a long post, she expects me to figure it out. Perhaps you go through this too, but when I don't have a clear guide on completing big projects, it paralyzes me because I don't know where to start. On top of that, I have anxiety, so "it has to be perfect".

How do you approach projects when your boss plays the "guess what's in my head" game?

Does anyone know when on cycle is going to happen?

Anyone here took the USI localization program?

Hi, we just launched Diversity and inclusion committee at our work place and one of our many initiatives is to share some reminders /notifications about safety and inclusion in common employee platforms/portals e.g There’s no place or time when discrimination is acceptable. Please feel free to report to HR if you com across any discriminatory behavior. Anyone has any more similar ideas what other topics we can add?

Is anyone teaching Earth Science, global warming and water shortages etc?

I teach 5th grade science. I love it

So I just completed a 3-day training on Avida-ED. It's an online system that models *actual* evolution (heritability, variation, &selection). Plus, researchers use the full version!

Do your high schools have a STEM fair that is required for all science students to participate?

The math and language arts teachers always give me the "stay in your lane" when I review a math or writing topic in my science class. They act like there is no math or language arts in science.

Science fair is coming up - how are you handling projects this year? Partners/no partners? All-digital projects? I'm at a loss on how to do it.

Looking for a really good Living Environment workbook for students. We are currently not sure if we will have to take the LE regents at the end of the year. Any suggestions?

I’ve taught 3rd or 5th grade my whole career of 26 years. I’m venturing into a new domain with a multi age 3-5 grade PBL and workshop model charter within our school. Any advice for multiage teaching

A lot of families want their students to do hands on labs during virtual learning. I am not allowed to "require supplies" for basic school supplies because of equity reasons. How can I reach all families?

What basic equipment should all science lab rooms have? We are trying to reorganize after years of things just being put places.

Hello. My district is currently remote (virtual) and I am teaching a chemical reactions unit. Usually, this is a hands on unit. I cannot do hands-on labs for equity reasons. My district does not have subscriptions to any science lab simulation sites at the middle school level. We use the NGSS. We are standards based grading and I can only grade the stand MS-PS1-2. Anyone have suggestions on free simulations I can use? I teach synchronously to my students 2 classes (2 hours total ) each week.

What are your most engaging and productive storylines? What essential questions initiate your units of study? What are your go to sites for these inspirations?

Today's high point in my chemistry class: I am teaching Atomic theory and structure. I have my students look at their periodic table and I walk through the information listed for each element. At this point I talk about a lot of big ideas that are related as an prelude to where we are headed. One student told me that she took chemistry last year, and in 10 minute I was able to connect all of the pieces that never made any sense to her. Her 'aha's moment was like candy to me.

My district just purchased Gizmos. Thoughts?

Has anyone ever use contact paper on lab tables? Or do you have other suggestions? Our tables at school are very old and beat up, not just dirty and written on;several have large gouges. I would also like to mark a “phone parking “ spot on each table.

Anyone using MH Inspire Science? What are your thoughts? Are there enough labs for distance learning or do you supplement?

any great high school science ice breakers/activities to do on the first day?

Also, anyone have a great lab safety video they show to their class? Need a new one

I'm a HS biology teacher with 2 electives, Forensics and Worldwide Medical trends. I am looking for online lab resources, I use labster, Pearson and a colleague and I have started to record what the students would do. We rotate one does the the lab and the other is the narrator but I would still like more options. What do you use? Thanks and good luck to all in these unprecedented times.
