Lots of stories out of OFCCP last week, but the one our experts are diving into today is regarding their new VEVRAA guidance which clarifies their protected veterans "benchmark for hiring". Learn what this benchmark actually represents and the history behind it in this latest episode of DE Under 3!

My views on an ANC-DA National Coalition: -Ideological differences: The ANC is a left-wing party with a strong socialist and African nationalist ideology, while the DA is a right-wing party with a liberal and individualist ideology. These differences might make it difficult to find common ground on key policy issues but not necessarily impossible. -Historical and political tensions: The ANC has historically been associated with the anti-apartheid movement, while the DA was formed in opposition to the ANC's dominance. These tensions would surely make it challenging for the two parties to work together effectively. -Lack of trust: The ANC and DA have had a history of mistrust and conflict, particularly during recent times. This lack of trust would make it difficult for the parties to work together on key issues. -Different policy priorities: The ANC has prioritized issues such as economic empowerment, social justice, and racial equality, while the DA has focused on issues such as economic growth, individual freedom, and constitutional reform. These different priorities would create tension and conflict within the coalition. -Difficulty in finding common ground on key issues: The ANC and DA have fundamentally different views on issues such as land reform, education, healthcare, and taxation. Finding common ground on these issues would be challenging, if not impossible. Given these challenges, it is unlikely that an ANC and DA national governmental coalition would be sustainable but, on the contrary, it might work as the ANC would now be held accountable by the official opposition for their actions.

In 1960 #JamesStewart and #LisaLu appeared in “The Mountain Road” which depicted a demolition squad tasked with destroying airfields, bridges, and ammunition dumps to slow the advance of an enemy army. Today’s pyrotechnics often steal the show. In this movie, however, a slow-burning fuse paces the plot to an explosive revelation – the failure of #modernism. The dialog juggles #injustice, #power, #irrationality, the #breakdown of #socialorder, and questions about #lifeinvestment and #meaning. Here are links to three sequential clips which boil the narrative to a saucy reduction. (Sorry about switching metaphors.) Forgive me for not packaging the three into one longer clip, but YT allows only 60 seconds per. Each clip begins with the same splash screen, so give it a few seconds. If not tidy systems thinking, then what? https://lnkd.in/g3naTiFj https://lnkd.in/gHmtzjrq https://lnkd.in/gxRkWw3E

Can anyone ( aviator / aviation enthusiast) tell me how this airplane is able to generate lift in such a short take off? Even during landing they almost kind of hover in the air and touch down within 10 feet. Is it done by increasing angle of attack to slow down? But how it's done with a single engine propeller aircraft? #aviation #stol #flying #skill #aviator https://lnkd.in/dkV7W2eD the above link is from YouTube shows very short take off & landing ( almost hovering) clip. https://lnkd.in/d5Jy8cTr

This holds so many truths it's amazing! Your subconscious literally ABSORBS your surroundings, so if you surround yourself with wisdom a mere 30 minutes per day (even if it's only listening to speakers like myself and Les Brown on youtube) that's 5,040 points of upgrade you just gave your life in 1 year. If it takes 30 days to learn a new habit, then by the time you've effectively programmed yourself to make 30 minutes of focused growth each day you'll have already earned 900 minutes of upgrade points. BUT WAIT IT GETS BETTER If every 1 of those upgrade points can be converted into a single dollar per year in your income, by the time you're done upgrading for that year, you'll see yourself making an extra $5k dollars by the end of the year. You'll also be living a happier life, feeling and acting more accomplished, and even enjoying your relationships more. If you don't believe me, try it. What do you have to lose?

CALLING ALL HISTORY BUFFS!!! When I worked with Kyle Nelson, PMP Instructor, LSSBB, I knew he loved history and wreck diving. We rarely get to blend our passions and share them with the world. So, it's fantastic that he has found an opportunity to do so. The size of this book illustrates his level of passion. I've only been able to read a few pages so far, but what I have read is excellent. If you like history and supporting #Veterans, pick up a copy. >>--------------> #MilitaryHistory #VeteranSupport #BookRecommendation
