(FROM THE ARTICLE: Dan
Proft, a former Republican gubernatorial candidate in Illinois, said he
supports Trump visiting Chicago. “I’m happy that the president of the
United States is making a visit to Chicago and so should everyone else
be,” Proft said. “I mean even if you don’t like him, he’s the
president of the United States.”)

— After criticizing Chicago from afar, President Donald Trump gets his chance
to do it in person today – RICK PEARSON and BILL RUTHHART (DIERSEN:
Ever-increasingly, Chicago voters elect politicians who are anti-Trump,
anti-Protestant, anti-conservative, anti-patriotic, anti-Republican,
anti-American, anti-White, anti-male, anti-older people, anti-rich people,
anti-gun owners, anti-German Americans, anti-draft avoiders, and/or anti-those
whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)

— New marijuana store licenses: Residents of 681 Illinois census tracts can
get a leg up on applications. Are you eligible? Here’s which areas qualify, and
why. – Ally Marotti (DIERSEN: Pot pushers want all of Illinois to be designated
a “Disproportionately Impacted Area (DIA).” I fear that the pot pushers in
Springfield will vote to force the sale of pot in DIAs even if the municipality
or county had voted to ban the sale there. Where pot is sold, it brings down
everything and everyone around it. How close is a DIA to where you live or
work? Illinois Democrats want pot shops to open up in DIAs to revitalize those
areas. Wheaton is the DuPage County Seat. The Democrats who run the Illinois
Department of Commerce & Economic Opportunity (IDCEO) have outrageously
designated western Wheaton (Census Tract 8426.04) as being a DIA, that is, an
area that has high rates of arrest, conviction, and incarceration related to
cannabis as well as poverty and unemployment. Needless-to-say, that must be a
mistake. SEE: on https://censusreporter.org/profiles/14000US17043842604-census-tract-842604-dupage-il/ and https://www.chicagocityscape.com/maps/index.php?place=censustract-17043842604 While
Wheaton has banned the sale of pot, the Democrats who run Illinois may very
well vote to allow pot shops in DIAs thereby overriding Wheaton’s ban. I ask
the following and everyone else who has an interest in Wheaton to ask the IDCEO
to immediately rescind its western Wheaton DIA designation: Wheaton Mayor and
City Council members, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Milton Township officers and
trustees, DuPage County Board Chairman and County Board members, and federal
and Illinois officials who represent or seek to represent any part of Wheaton.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE:
Applications for licenses to operate 75 marijuana stores are now available,
offering the first path into the industry for those who don’t already operate a
cannabis business in Illinois. A map the state released identifying areas hit
hardest by the war on drugs could play a vital role for some applicants. More
than 2 million people live in the hard-hit areas identified on the map. A
qualified resident of those areas who applies to grow and sell recreational
marijuana will get an additional 50 points on the application, which has a
maximum score of 250 points. . .To create the map, officials broke the state
down by U.S. Census tracts. To qualify, an area had to have an average annual
rate of at least 30 marijuana-related arrests per 10,000 residents or at least
one marijuana-related parole per 10,000 residents. Roughly 10 years of arrest
and parole data was analyzed, said Michael Negron, assistant director of the
Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity. The data reflects the
addresses of people with marijuana arrests or paroles, not where the incidents
occurred. Additionally, an area either must have a poverty rate above 20%, more
than 20% of households in the area must receive Supplemental Nutrition
Assistance Program benefits, also known as food stamps, or the area’s average
unemployment rate over the past two years must have been at least 20% higher
than the national average. “The data is intended to be objective while still
keeping in mind where we think the impact of the war on drugs is,” Negron said.
“That means the data really sets the map.” Here’s a look at the poverty and
SNAP participation rates of some census tracts identified on the map: . . .
Wheaton — Poverty rate of 9%, SNAP participation 8.2%, average annual
marijuana-related arrest rate of 9.1 per 10,000 residents. This tract qualified
as underserved based on its unemployment rate of 5.7%, which was more than 20%
higher than the national average in 2017 and 2018. It is west of downtown
Wheaton and includes a western chunk of Milton Township.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE:
Individuals will get an edge by qualifying as social equity applicants if
they’ve lived for five of the past 10 years in an area that’s been
disproportionately impacted by past drug policies or have been arrested for or
convicted of a minor pot offense. Additionally, employers will qualify if the
majority of their workforce meets those criteria. Some social equity applicants
can also qualify for waivers from the state to cover half of their application
fees. To qualify for a loan from Good Tree, applicants must fill out a form
online to confirm they meet the qualifications before Nov. 1.)

— How Early-Career Setbacks Can Set You Up for Success Failure is just part of
the process. – Tim Herrera (DIERSEN: What career setbacks have you suffered? My
Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old,
gave me unfair performance expectations and appraisals, always ranked me in the
bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, did not promote
me beyond GS-13, got rid of my mentor in 1987, kept me off audits of IRS for
all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and forced me to take a
$19,568 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980.
My Democrat IRS superiors did not promote me beyond GS-12, disallowed my
education deductions in 1978, got rid of my mentor in 1975, and disallowed my
partial day per diem claims in 1974. Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had
accepted in 1971 saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle
an EEOC complaint. My Democrat Post Office superiors forced me resign in 1969

— How a Company’s Aging Workforce Retrained Itself for the Cloud We will give

give me any tools. In 1989, I was extremely qualified to work for GAO on audits
of IRS. I had worked for GAO on audits of IRS for the prior 3 years at the
GS-13 Step 1-3 levels, currently $98,198-$104,744. I had worked for IRS for
almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 levels,
currently $82,579-$93,592. In 1989, to get rid of me, beyond wastefully, my
Democrat GAO superiors threw me off audits of IRS, made it clear to me that
they would never again assign me to audits of IRS, and assigned me to audits of
federal financial institution regulators. To retain myself, I took evening and
weekend courses at IIT and earned a master’s degree in financial markets and
trading in 1997. But then, even more wastefully, my Democrat GAO superiors
forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was
49 years old.)

https://www.entrepreneur.com/article/341090
(FROM THE ARTICLE:
Having some minimum requirements combined with previous hiring data is a great
place to start. However, employers should go beyond that, and focus on hiring
the right culture fit. . .cultural fit is essential. An organizational culture
is a system of shared assumptions, values, and beliefs that govern how people
behave in a company. These shared values have a strong influence on the people
in the organization, and dictate how they act and perform. Unfortunately, many
hires struggle due to culture misfit, where they do not fit in with the team,
they are not aligned with the values and goals pre-established, or their
personality and workstyle is not compatible with what the company offers. A
great way for employers to start seriously considering culture fit when hiring
is to, firstly, define their organization’s culture, and make sure that it is
visible and communicated regularly. Some employers do this by developing a
strong online employer brand that can be viewed by potential job applicants. By
announcing their organizational culture to potential applicants, it is more
likely that employers will receive candidates who truly share their core values
and principles and are able to smoothly assimilate.)
