At first blush, I would say that President Trump’s tax plan is a home run.
I would have preferred a flat tax, but overall, this is a vast improvement
over what we have now. The plan will drastically cut taxes for business big
and small, which will spur economic growth. The US has the largest corporate
tax in the world and that is just so very wrong. It also strangles business
. I believe this plan will create jobs and help br... 阅读全帖 |

direction, the CBO does linear forecasts on tax revenues, never estimating
the stimulation or retardation of economic activity resulting from the
changes. It is all policy permits them to do. Accordingly, CBO forecasts for
rate changes are always wrong. CBO results, on the other hand, are facts --

Through multiple regression analysis and other tools, we conclude that an

Chicago Police Department, which in turn caused homicides to spike. Sadly,
what Chicago police officers dubbed the “ACLU effect” was real—and more
homicides and shootings were the consequence.
The analysis is relatively straightforward. It is well known that homicides

这是第11代卡罗拉，为了吸引更年轻的用户而非维持以往用户，继“Avalon”

带大开口的保险杠等为特点，并搭配大幅膨出的翼子板以及向后平缓下滑的C柱。
新款卡罗拉的外形尺寸为长4639×宽1776×高1455mm，与上代车型相比车长增
加99mm，车宽扩大16mm，但车高降低10mm。轴距为2700mm，比上代车型长100mm。由于
轴距更长，因此后座臀点后移了75mm，另外还通过减薄前座靠背，使后座乘坐空间变得

NSF: -$359.5 M

我老估计，就现在巴马这个熊样，这个法案八成是要通过了。想找珀斯到，老板没钱。
想找发考题，申不到方鼎。一堆生
物wsn/nv们，包括老美自己，涌到已经哀鸿遍野的industry，更没H1的机会了。依我看

教课是1＋1，比较好。tenure track的那个要2＋2.目前给我第一个学期的reduction，
变成一门课。再争取更多的reduction。
去post doc的那个地方可能压力大一些，不过更能出东西一些。去tenure的那个就是压
力要小，估计以后拿tenure压力也不会太大。这三个地方,they are so different in
nature。艰难的选择。 |

From what we have been able to tell, after a quick first look at that
proposal, the cuts proposed for Pitt include:
* a 50 percent, or $80 million, reduction to our general educational
appropriation, funds that are used mainly to support the education of the
next generation of Pennsylvanians;
* the complete elimination of nearly $17 million of support for programs
in the health sciences, including our top-ranked School of Medicine, the

grants and cooperative agreements awarded in FY 2013 by approximately 1,000.
This is roughly a 10% reduction in the number of new awards. There will be
no impact on existing NSF grants.

发帖数: 154 | 50 我因为怀孕，所以要求下学期减课时。我是visiting lecturer.按照faculty handbook
的解释，faculty有continuous tenure,probationary contract, fixed term 三种。
我以为自己是probationary contract，可是dean认为是 fixed term。如果是
continuous tenure 和probationary contract,有two course reduction with no pay
reduction.可是fixed term没有。
The visiting faculty liaison 跟我说这涉及到很多visiting faculty的利益，所以
可能要请律师跟他们argue。现在系主任说可以让我教一门课，有3个学生，而不是两个
课，有10几个学生。
我应该继续跟dean argue， 还是接受系主任的建议？ |
