Supporting Positive Practices
Supporting Positive Interactions with Children
CCCCG will create a positive healthy environment within which all children will be respected. Friendly, constructive and non-confrontational relationships are promoted and developed between children and children and staff. Developing responsive relationships with children and their families is the cornerstone to supporting positive interactions.
Positive social interactions are promoted in the learning environment by:
- Teachers acting as observers and play partners during play are better able to anticipate and prevent challenges. Developing responsive relationships with children and families by being attentive listeners and responding in a supportive manner to ideas, concerns and needs of children and families
- Having meaningful greetings at arrival and departure times
- Viewing the children as competent and capable. With this positive view of children, educators can plan interactions that are meaningful, and provide social opportunities through a play based environment, children's interests and varying individual skills.
- Collaborating and working with families to enhance the connection with the children in their care and supporting a sense of belonging in our programs.
- Supporting self-regulation by helping children to cope and recover from any stressors. Teachers are available to help children develop the skills needed to self-regulate and make decisions. This approach helps the children to build resiliency in times of stress.
- Commenting on the positive interactions and behaviors observed.
- Building on the belief that the child should always feel safe and act in a safe manner, including ensuring children keep themselves safe, they keep their friends safe and they keep their environment safe.
Strategies to Support Positive Interactions:
- Creating a welcoming and inviting environment
- Awareness of the individuality of each child and group dynamics when creating a learning environment
- Designing schedules and routines that are embedded with predictability to allow children sufficient time for meaningful engagement in play, while minimizing transitions
- Considering how the program setup and physical space of both the indoors and outdoors impacts their well-being and behavior
- Considering stimuli in the environment that may affect a child's ability to self-regulate ie noise, space, number of people
- Considering play materials offered and how they impact the children's well-being and behavior
- Assisting children in entering and exiting play appropriately
- Modelling positive behaviors, coaching the children on how to verbally interact and playing with others in a friendly manner
- Encouraging the children to solve problems together in a fair and safe manner
- Providing reflective feedback and encouraging the children to reflect on their behaviors by asking appropriate questions
- Helping the children understand emotions and building on emotional vocabulary
- Respecting and validating children's emotions and feelings in a healthy way
When challenges and conflicts emerge:
- Ask yourself if there are some behaviors that do not require an immediate response? Consider alternatives to redirect.
- Teachers will take the time to reflect on the question, 'Why is this behavior happening?
- Answering this may lead to a favorable solution for all. For instance, a child's behavior may be due to:
- Boredom – reflect on the learning environment available; Is there something that meets their individual need
- Frustration – Is the programming, routines, expectations too challenging?
- Are they hungry or tired?
- Do they have the ability to enter and exit play with peers appropriately? Consider their play style?
If the child's behavior is continuing or escalating it is necessary to let them know what the outcome will be. Indicate what you will do to help them if they cannot manage their own behavior. For example:
- You will redirect them from the present area
- You will find an alternate activity for them if they can't
This is reinforced:
- in a positive, consistent and caring manner
- as soon as possible after the behavior has occurred
- as a way to assist the child to learn safe behaviors
- to ensure the safety of the children and teachers
- to protect the rights of others
- to protect the building and equipment
Always maintain a positive view of each child and consider:
How is a child showing you what they need to return to a feeling of calmness and how the teacher can support the child:
- Ask the child if they need time to calm down and consider the behavior(s)
- Guide the child to a quiet spot in the room (a child is never to be left alone)
- Make use of techniques that have been developed by each program and are developmentally appropriate
- Giving alternative options or outlets to express emotion
- If the child needs additional support, another staff person may be called to assist in supporting the program as needed. A child may be asked to go to another room with adult supervision for a "calm time"
- Once the child is calm, explain why the behavior was not safe
- Give the child the choice to return to the group with encouragement to make safe choices
- Look for an alternative activity that will meet the child's immediate needs; perhaps a quiet activity with a teacher or different peer.
- Alternatively aid the process of telling their friend why they are upset. (Remember, children know the phrase "use your words", but often need assistance in finding the words to say)
- Help them empathize and learn to identify with how peers are feeling
- Be flexible in your approach to meet the needs of individual children and the group, yet consistent with the use clear developmentally appropriate language with limits
The Supporting Positive Practices with Children is also posted on the Parent Information Bulletin Board so as to be visible to all parents and visitors.

Using the method of self-propagating high-temperature synthesis, NUSTMISIS scientists created HfC0.5N0.35, (hafnium carbonitride) which is close to a desired theoretical composition. It has a high hardness of 21.3 GPa and can withstand temperatures over 4000 degrees celsius.
The hardness is higher than in other promising materials, such as ZrB2/SiC (20.9 GPa) and HfB2/SiC/TaSi2 (18.1 GPa).
Brown University (U.S.) had previously predicted that hafnium carbonitride would have a high thermal conductivity and resistance to oxidation, as well as the highest melting point among all known compounds (approximately 4200 degrees C).
The specific melting point of the new material is above 4000 degrees C, and could not be determined precisely in the laboratory. In the future, the team plans to conduct experiments on measuring the melting temperature by high-temperature pyrometry using a laser or electric resistance. They also plan to study the performance of the resulting hafnium carbonitride in hypersonic conditions, which will be relevant for further application in the aerospace industry.
Ceramics International – Fabrication of ultra-high-temperature nonstoichiometric hafnium carbonitride via combustion synthesis and spark plasma sintering
Nonstoichiometric hafnium carbonitrides (HfCxNy) was fabricated via short-term (5 min) high-energy ball milling of Hf and C powders, followed by combustion of mechanically induced Hf/C composite particles in a nitrogen atmosphere (0.8 MPa). The obtained HfC0.5N0.35 powder exhibited a rock-salt crystal structure with a lattice parameter of 0.4606 nm. The melting point of this synthesized ceramic material was experimentally shown to be higher than that of binary hafnium carbide (HfC). The nonstoichiometric hafnium carbonitride was then consolidated under a constant pressure of 50 MPa at a temperature of 2000 °C and a dwelling time of 10 min, through spark plasma sintering. The obtained bulk ceramic material had a theoretical material density of 98%, Vickers hardness of 21.3 GPa, and fracture toughness of 4.7 MPa m1/2

There are various types of hair extensions on the market, for example synthetic human hair, Brazilian and European hair, Peruvian hair, Indian hair, facial expression, wigs, amigos, attachments, etc. It is crucial to decide which of the many wigs and hair extensions, each with its own advantages and disadvantages, fit your business and go towards manufacturing and shipping. There are a whole range of hair extensions and wigs that can be confusing when you start your wig or hair extension business. Show Source Texts
One strategy to make the hair business more comprehensive and profitable is to sell products that require weaving with human hair. Some people consider selling human hair according to their customers while others prefer to sell products such as hair extensions. For a lower price, you can collaborate with an international manufacturer or buy directly from a distributor in the United States, as the majority of human hair weaving is collected and produced in Asia. Show Source Texts
The theft and theft of human hair is a recurring problem in some countries. Natural human hair is a coveted commodity in international trade processes and companies and the international sale and export of human hair (excluding hair extensions and wigs) amounted to $583 million in 2019. Human hair removal costs 3,000 rupees or more so hairdressers get graded human hair from India, Brazil and Peru, and a single supplier can pay up to 450 rupees per pack. Human hair imports have soared, and most of them come from impoverished women in Third World countries. In India, most of it is sacrificed to women, and in China it is a full-blown business where poor Chinese women sell their hair to hair collectors and middlemen for a fee. And that's it. Show Source Texts
Since existing demand, 1.5 tonnes of human hair from Rangoon, Myanmar, were exported to Tiruchi International Airport (TIA) in the current year (January) due to existing demand, TIA cargo services told The Dollar Business sources on Thursday. Show Source Texts
The problem is that the market demands that a large part of the human hair collected be processed in different ways to make it look European, Brazilian, Peruvian, etc. Show Source Texts
Hence, it is clear that if human hair is to grow rapidly it must be regulated to ensure that the products come from voluntary and reputable sources. Show Source Texts
If you wish to start an additional business to raise your income, then you should consider starting a business that sells human hair and hair extensions. Beauty salons in the largest cities of Africa such as Lagos, Johannesburg, Cairo, Kinshasa and Nairobi sell hair extensions yearly for more than $50,000. Other major real hair retailers such as Dabur, Marico and VLCC are also expanding their presence in the African continent with a strong focus on the African hair care market. Show Source Texts
Human hair is coveted for making extensions, braids, bespoke wigs and hairpieces. It is a coveted commodity that is widely used, so learning to start a business selling and weaving human hair can be a profitable business. Human hair looks natural, versatile and resistant to damage, so synthetic hair is preferable when making extensions, tailored wigs, hairpieces and braids. Show Source Texts
As a result, the market for weaves, wigs and extensions has led global consumers and giants like Unilever and LOreal to invest in African hair care products. The demand is so large that it has encouraged many Indian companies not only to weave hair for export as a global strategy, but also to invest in hair care companies in Africa. In Africa, an unusual and lucrative business opportunity was created in real hair for Indian beauty and wellness companies. Show Source Texts
You can also popularize your business by donating hair and making wigs for people who have lost their hair due to cancer or other diseases such as hair loss. Another thing I like about hair extension shops is that you can start the business in a small house or rented shop and your customers can reach you via their mobile phone if needed. The first thing you need to do to start a hair extension business is to find a high quality hair extension provider. Show Source Texts
Private Label Extensions is a hair distributor and technology company that builds hair brands from A to Z for entrepreneurs who want to enter the hair industry. We launched Private Label Extensions just over 5 years ago to create an option for women who want high quality hair for entrepreneurs looking for a start-up in the hair industry. We have a large Facebook group for starting a hair business and are always looking for feedback on desired products and services. Show Source Texts
In this section of the article, my walk through the value chain of the human hair business, there is a lot to be made in all levels of human hair products that land on the heads of African women. Show Source Texts
The negative cash flow, in turn, underscores Indonesia's competitive disadvantage in a particular product category and signals an opportunity for the country's human hair supply to meet strong consumer demand. However, India's export market for human hair has fallen by more than 1,000 rupees due to strong competition from China, which offers exports at lower prices. A 100 kg of human hair at the price of export in China account for 15,000 rupees on the export market, while the supply of exports at a cheaper price in India is only 150 rupees per kg at export prices in India, adds V. Karthi, secretary of the Indian Human Hair Exporters Association, giving cause for concern about the decline.

If you're the kind of person who thoroughly enjoyed the process of figuring out the seating chart for your wedding or loves to take LSAT diagnostic tests just for kicks, Matt Winick has the world's greatest job.
But if the mere sight of a Sudoku puzzle gets you queazy, you probably think Winick is a masochist.
That's because in his role as senior vice president of scheduling and game operations for the NBA, Winick is in charge of making the NBA schedule.
Everyone loves to complain about the schedule -- coaches, fans, players. But there's a smart explanation for why your team travels to Milwaukee, but somehow can't get to Chicago during the same trip. And there's a good reason why your team plays only three times at home during the month of February. Winick has looked into it. He has spent weeks asking himself these questions. And now he answers ours:
Where do you even start? Is there some sort of template for how to do this?
You start by getting dates from the various arenas. There's a certain number of dates that each arena must provide. That's your starting point.
What's your next building block from that?
The games against the other conference, because they normally involve long road trips. You look for gaps in the home schedule when the building is not available and you try to schedule the longer road trips during that time when the team can't play at home. So if a team from the east is going to be out of their building for 8-10 days, you look to send them west.
So circuses, rodeos, conventions --
Whatever it is, and it doesn't really concern me what it is. As long as the team provides the required number of dates, it doesn't matter.
Do teams get to offer any input or make any specific requests?
They're allowed three priority dates -- dates when they'd like to play at home. They have no input as to who their opponent would be, but they get three priority options. Teams use them for various reasons. Some for competitive reasons. Some for marketing reasons. In some situations, maybe they need a Friday or Saturday in a certain time of the year because they know they can do a big group business, or there's a big convention coming into town and they think they can partner with that organization and sell a large number of tickets.
How much has technology changed this job? Is there software that does most of it? Is there a group of you sitting around a conference table in New York during early August with pizza boxes everywhere?
The group is me.
You are the group?
I am the group. There's a computer program I work with that helps. But basically it's me -- and the computer prevents me from doing stupid things.
You must love this job, right? You've been doing in for 25 years. From a personal standpoint, does it appeal to a certain sense of order?
Relief is probably the best word. It's a great feeling of accomplishment once it's completed. There are some bumps in the road, but once it gets done it's a great feeling.
Like anybody who has done a job for a quarter of a century, you've gotten better as you've learned --
I'm not sure about that. I think there are different issues every year. No two years are the same. As much as you might think experience helps, it might help in certain areas, but there are always new issues and you have to work through them.
But you must've picked up shortcuts that have made the process easier, right?
Nothing is easy. The computer program is great. It puts everything together in an orderly way and makes it as easy as possible, but there are no easy schedules. And I'm not just talking about the NBA. I'm talking about football, baseball, hockey. We all have issues. They might not be the same issues, but we all have them.
Come on, the NFL schedule must be child's play compared to what you have to deal with?
No it's not. It seems very easy but it's not. Everyone has something -- a team is going to complain about or the network is going to complain about. Somebody will complain.
We always hear about the "four games in five nights" and back-to-backs. Are there certain limitations or considerations you take into account?
This year, for instance, we had an outer limit of 23 back-to-backs and four "four out of fives." At some points during the process, there were teams with more than that. You look at those things and you correct them before the schedule is final. "Oh, this team has 25 back-to-backs? We can't go with this. We have to find a way to get them down."
Are those numbers the league furnishes you with?
No. They're numbers that, based on user experience, we don't think we can get any lower, based on everything else that is involved in the schedule. You're playing 82 games and the season is 171 days. You take out the All-Star break. You take out some other days. You have to play back-to-back games -- there's no other way around it.
Does a relatively new advent like the Thursday doubleheader make the process easier or harder?
Depends what team you are. If you're playing the Thursday night, it might help your schedule a little bit because it spreads out the games over more days during the week. If you're not a team that would normally play on Thursday night, it cuts down one day into your schedule and might lead to more condensed scheduling on the other days and therefore more back-to-back games.
As far as scheduling teams for those Thursday night games, you don't make that determination do you?
We discuss that with our broadcast partners and come up with a schedule.
What are some of the funnier or more absurd complaints you've gotten about the schedule?
I don't consider any complaint funny.
Normally, somewhere around January, some coach will blame the schedule for having a rough streak of games and will wonder why they played x number of games in that stretch on the road. They'll say that not knowing the building was not available and they couldn't play at home. It comes with the territory.
There have to be aggravating parts of this exercise --
You send a team to Golden State on a trip, yet they can't go to Sacramento. You have to send them on another trip when they go to Sacramento and people say, "Why?" Well, the two times they were going west, Golden State wasn't available one time and Sacramento wasn't available the other. You'd like to schedule orderly trips as much as you can, but if the buildings aren't available, they aren't available. In Los Angeles, this coming season, the Lakers have four games at home in February and the Clippers have two. Well, the Grammies are in Staples Center for 10 days followed by a week when the building is unavailable because of the NBA All-Star Game. If teams can't play at home, they have to play on the road.
Is your background in math or statistics?
I was a statistician for the Mets in the early years, but I have a degree in accounting.
How long do you see yourself doing this?
As long as they'll have me do it. There are not a whole lot of people who may be able to do it. When I started this -- whatever year it was, it was the early 80s I guess -- Scottie Stirling was my boss at the time. He was the vice president of operations at the NBA. He said, "Matt, I want you to do the schedule. We'll provide the program," the program that has assisted me to a great extent. And I said, "Why would I want to do that?" And he said. "Think about it. You'll have a lifetime job." I said, "What do you mean I'll have a lifetime job?" He said, "You'll have a job nobody else will want."
I guess I have a job nobody else wants.

Like us, Joey Mead King loves switching up her lip color. She shows off different shades of red, pink and neutral shades in her selfies, never missing the mark when it comes to choosing the right hue. In fact, her go-to color is anything but basic.
In a video from her Instagram, Joey shared her daytime makeup routine. She walked us through her favorite blush and brow products before proceeding to her favorite step: lipstick, of course!
"I'm attracted to so many colors but the bright ones do attract me [the most]," she says in the video. The model finished off her look with a bright fuchsia lip gloss by local brand Colourette and you can immediately see how much it brightened her complexion.
The last time Preview caught up with Joey, she was carrying an almost identical shade in her bag for touch-ups. Now that's a bright lip lover right there!
And a few months ago, we saw Lovi Poe wear a similar lip color and she rocked it, too! Now who says morenas can't wear bright lipsticks?
Try the shade for yourself with the products below!

A peptide (Leu-Gly-Arg-Pro-Asp-Glu-Asp-Ser-Ser-Ser-Ser-Ser-Ser-Ser-Cys) that was identical to residues 82 through 96 of a predicted protein of 208 amino acids from the immediate-early region (IE-2) nucleic acid sequence of human cytomegalovirus was chemically synthesized. By computer analysis, the first five amino acids of this peptide showed sequence homology to the β chain of the human histocompatibility complex HLA-DR. The homologous amino acids, 53 through 57, were located in a region that is conserved between the human DR β chain and the β chain of the H-2 class II histocompatibility antigen for mice. The shared region between the IE-2 protein and DR β chain were similar in both hydrophilicity and predicted β-turn potential. The IE-2 viral peptide induced antibodies that specifically recognized the human DR β chain. These observations describe a protein encoded by the IE-2 region of human cytomegalovirus that contains sequence homology and shows immunologic cross-reactivity with a conserved domain of HLA-DR and suggest a mechanism to explain how human cytomegalovirus infection contributes to graft rejection after transplantation.

The Stony Brook softball team has hit poorly with runners in scoring position for most of the season, but has consistently found ways to win regardless. This Saturday and Sunday, their struggles finally caught up to them when they were swept by the Albany Great Danes in a three-game road series; the Seawolves were outscored 11-3 despite outhitting Albany 21-17.
The trio of losses dropped Stony Brook to 9-4 in-conference and into a first-place tie with the UMBC Retrievers, who swept the Maine Black Bears this weekend. The Seawolves conclude their regular season next weekend at home against UMBC in a series that will now determine the America East champion.
Senior pitcher Dawn Bodrug, looking to cement her case for the America East Pitcher of the Year award, saw her ERA increase to 1.43 in two starts.
Bodrug got the ball in game one and stayed on the mound through extra innings, but allowed a two-out walk-off grand slam in the eighth to first baseman Maranda Jimenez that sealed the Seawolves' 6-2 loss.
Freshman left fielder Julianna Sanzone was Stony Brook's only baserunner in the first four innings, but Bodrug escaped jams in the second and fourth with only one run surrendered to keep the score close.
In the fifth, graduate catcher Jordyn Nowakowski homered to tie the score and gave the Seawolves momentum heading into the sixth. There, freshman second baseman Kyra McFarland singled and stole second, allowing her to score on senior shortstop Nicole McCarvill's double.
But with McCarvill on third and junior designated player Lindsey Osmer on second, Nowakowski hit a fly ball to end the inning and keep Stony Brook's lead at 2-1. Bodrug preserved the lead until the bottom of the seventh, but surrendered an RBI single to Jimenez that tied the score and forced extra innings
McCarvill hit into a double play to end the top of the eighth, leaving it up to Bodrug to extend the game. She struck out the first two batters, but a walk and two straight errors in the infield loaded the bases. The stage was set for Jimenez, whose grand slam snapped the Seawolves' three-game win streak and instantly shifted the landscape of the America East.
Stony Brook's offensive struggles continued in game two, and even a stellar pitching performance from Rahrich could not save them from a 2-0 loss. Albany pitcher Wendi Hammond stranded all four of the Seawolves' baserunners and at one point retired 10 straight batters.
Rahrich gave up six hits but controlled the pace of the game, stranding four batters and striking out six. However, Albany third baseman Kelly Barkevich hit a two-run homer in the fourth inning for the game's only runs.
That left it up to the offense to try and tie the score, but Rahrich was the only one to reach base in the sixth inning or seventh innings. Osmer, Nowakowski and graduate third baseman Riley Craig went down 1-2-3 to end the game.
Stony Brook built some offensive momentum in the third game off a 3-for-4 day by graduate center fielder Jourdin Hering, but left batters on base in each of the first six innings. They ended the game with nine hits but just a lone Sanzone RBI to show for it in the 3-1 loss.
Bodrug began the game in typically dominant fashion, retiring the first six batters. The Seawolves capitalized and took a 1-0 lead in the second inning: Craig led off with a double, and Sanzone brought her home on a grounder down the middle.
But the game got away from Bodrug in the third, where she walked three batters and allowed a single. She escaped with only one run allowed, but then gave up a two-run home run in the fourth before being replaced by Rahrich. In 3.2 innings, she gave up three earned runs and uncharacteristically recorded just one strikeout.
Rahrich only allowed one Great Dane to reach base, but Stony Brook's bats provided her with little help. Strikeouts killed a handful of two-out rallies, and Albany pitcher Briana Garrett earned the save by tearing through Rahrich, McCarvill and Osmer in the seventh.

Tara Lipinski's Endometriosis Experience
Gold Medal Champion Fights Endometriosis
Ice skating Olympic Gold Medalist Tara Lipinski joins millions of women who have battled endometriosis. To help other women, Tara has documented her experience with Endometriosis along with her recent surgical correction. She says "I could have not shared my journey, but I want to support other women who may be struggling through this painful disorder.
Symptoms, Discovery and Surgery
For quite some time, Tara experienced occasional pain. However, being an elite athlete she was used to working through pain. Therefore, she may have not described her symptoms accurately to her doctors for them to suspect endometriosis. In turn, her pain elevated during roughly 5 years but she worked through it. After pain and symptoms increased, her doctors accurately diagnosed with her endometriosis and recommended surgery. The excision procedure uses robotic scissors to cut the endo from the where it exists.
1 In 10 Women
Tara is happy to be educated through the process. "I knew nothing about a disorder that affects 1 in 10 women, which is 176 million people. Women do not talk openly enough about a disorder that can be cured!" Public awareness about sensitive topics that in the past have been private is helping many people today. Education is power, and with many diagnoses, early detection is key.

The Tony Gonzalez trade rumors die down before they really even got started. The Atlanta Falcons TE and former KC Chiefs TE told Jay Glazer of FOX Sports that he does NOT want to be traded.
Here's the message from Glazer:
I've seen a lot of tweets w rumors that Falcons should trade Tony Gonzalez, just got off the phone w him he absolutely does NOT want that. Wants to finish up in ATL
Things were moving quickly in Kansas City among the Chiefs fan base. Last night as the Falcons lost and moved to 1-4, I received a lot of tweets from Chiefs fans asking about a trade for TG. By this afternoon, Brandon Flowers and even the Chiefs GM, John Dorsey, had been asked about trading for TG. SB Nation's Falcons blog asked their readers if the Falcons should trade him.
Alas, it's not happening. Not that I expected it, too. But it was fun while it lasted!

Thank you to our employers for the continued support of our students and our program.
While the COVID-19 situation continues, the Arts & Science Co-op office stands steadfast in our support for our students and co-op employer partners. We're here to help ensure that all involved get the support and resources needed. Co-op work terms remain an important part of students' work-integrated learning and our students continue to contribute significantly to their co-op work term organizations.
Below are some key questions that we've received from our employers. If you have questions that are not answered below or would like to discuss a particular situation, please reach out to us directly to discuss. We remain very flexible and are happy to talk through all situations based on your organization's unique needs.
Is the Arts & Science Co-op office still open?
Yes. Our department is currently working remotely in support of the University of Toronto's efforts to slow the transmission of COVID-19, but we're available by phone or email and, as always, are ready to help.
Here's a few ways that you can continue to regularly reach our team:
General employer inquiries: email@example.com
Recruited our students before? Contact your External Relations Officer
New employer for Arts & Science Co-op, or just unsure who to call? Please contact Leslie Rouatt at email@example.com or 647-394-2120
Wage subsidies and federal funding available
Significant expansions to federal wage subsidy programs have recently been announced. Read more about them on our funding webpage, or take advantage of our full-service approach to funding by connecting with our business development team for their insights into your eligibility for the various funding programs.
Currently employing a co-op student
We fully support our students working remotely; they've been asked to follow the directions and instructions of their employers. We're here to support these remote working arrangements as needed to ensure the work term continues successfully.
If your co-op student will be required to come on-site for any portion of their work term, please reach out to your Business Development Coordinator to discuss the safety precautions being taken and government safety regulations that are being met. Ideally, we would like to include details about the safety precautions within the job posting. This ensures that students are aware of all safety measures being taken when they apply for your role.
Regardless of the timing, as soon as you know that our co-op student will be asked to work on-site rather than working remotely, please reach out to our office at email@example.com
Potentially, yes. We consider this a work term extension. Please discuss this possibility with your co-op student to ensure that they're interested in this change and that they're able to adjust their academic schedule accordingly. If both, you and your student would like to arrange a work term extension, please contact your Business Development Coordinator or reach us at email@example.com so that we can make the necessary adjustments to their records.
As with every term, our Business Development coordinator will be in touch to set up a time to meet. The only difference you'll experience right now is that this visit will take place by phone or video rather than in-person.
Yes. We will email you the midterm and final performance evaluation links for your current student. Please complete the evaluations and discuss them with your current student; they're excellent reflective learning opportunities for our students and an additional chance for you to engage in open dialogue with them about how their work term is going.
Considering hiring a co-op student for Summer 2023?
You can post roles for the upcoming term at any time; simply submit the job description on our online form or email your job description to firstname.lastname@example.com and we will be in touch.
As usual, we're more than happy to arrange interviews for you; these are now being conducted by phone or Skype. Simply identify which candidates you'd like to interview along with your preferred dates/times and we'll book the interviews on your behalf.
The Ontario Co-operative Education Tax credit is available to eligible employers who hire students for 10 weeks or more. Please refer to the Ontario Ministry of Finance website about the co-op tax credit for more details.
In addition to the co-op tax credit, the government has funding and wage subsidy programs in place to help support and offset costs related to employing co-op students; some as much as $7,000 per student. For details on what funding is available, visit our funding page or connect with us for an individualized consultation: firstname.lastname@example.com.

As they say,' the excess of anything is never good news. In the online world, do protect yourself from cybercrime! With technology advancing every day, our troubles are getting further away and our days have become easier. Not only do we use the internet for our work and profession, but we have also started using it for our personal lives.
We have now gained so much knowledge about the internet and the ways to use it that we have even started to misuse it and disturb other people's lives. People have started hacking our personal profiles, our blogs, and our posts. which has made the internet a not-so-safe place today.
Also read: 10 Reasons Why Government & Intelligence Agencies Hate Proxy Services
A profile or a website getting hacked would come as a no-shocker to people now as this has been going on for a while and most of us don't really know what to do about it. We sure are against the activity but are we capable enough to deal with the situation or should we just let it be. Our privacy, peace of mind, and money are at stake as we sit here doing nothing. So what can be done to prevent our personal information from being exploited?
There are many things that can be done on a personal level that can prevent your accounts and websites from being hacked. Let's start with the basics.
We use passwords and pin codes to keep our stuff safe. We have so much information to conceal from others that we need to have a password on every other thing that we use, such as our phone, laptop, Facebook, Instagram, company websites, and bank accounts.
I know, remembering a unique password for everything is not that easy but that's where we make the worst mistake.
There are so many people out there who prefer to keep the same password for everything and get their profiles hacked. If not this, they tend to keep such obvious passwords which make it easy for not only them but also the hacker who wants to get into the profile.
To make sure this doesn't happen, form a password that you can guess correctly but the other person cannot. This could be your birthday but you can always change the sequence and form it in a way only you would know how to crack it.
Also, try to change or update your passwords on a regular basis so that no one is able to hack or guess your passwords even if they try their best.
You should know that websites or bank accounts are not the only targets that hackers have. They also have their eyes on your personal devices which include your laptop, PC, or phone.
To prevent any cybercrime through your devices, there are some steps that you always follow and keep in mind.
Try to not log in to your PC or laptop when you don't have very important or urgent work that can be completed only through the admin user. The admin user can make all the important changes on your computer.
If you happen to get into some tricky business and you access your laptop through your admin user, there are high chances of your laptop getting hacked by the person on the other side. They can make any major changes on your laptop which may affect your work or life majorly.
If you access your social media sites through your laptop or PC, you should always sign out and close the website before you turn off your computer. This would prevent any future chances of your PC or social media getting hacked. Also, make sure to turn off your computer once your work is done.
When you are not using the Wi-Fi, disconnect it from your devices to keep no connection of your device with the outer world in your absence.
Most cybercrimes on your devices take place when the websites that you use are not safe or have a high chance of robbing you through the internet.
However, if you are not sure about the site you are using, always try a prepaid payment method so that you can redeem your cash if some mishap takes place. You should always be very picky with the websites you share your personal data with. Recommended and suggested sites should be preferred.
Always make sure to log in to your online accounts using your gadgets only. There are chances of you leaving the website logged in on someone else's device which could have some serious consequences.
There are various emails that you get which ask you to log in to the account so that a certain activity can be commenced or completed. Never reply or listen to these emails as there are high chances of hackers trying to steal information from your account through such sources.
As a computer user, there are instances when you have to use proxies to access the internet and get the information you need. Proxies come into play when you need to conceal information that you don't want to get out.
Private and shared proxies are the two types. Private proxies are expensive and shared proxies have cheaper rates. The difference is that the private proxies are used by a single user or company and shared proxies can be used by multiple users, and your identity would be disclosed to the members of the network.
These cost you less and can really help to protect yourself from cybercrime. This will keep your devices and accounts safe. This is best used in offices and other group activities.
Cybercrime is at its peak with the increasing population and technology at the same rate. You cannot stop the crime entirely but you can always prevent it from happening to you or at least try your best to do so.
Use the above-mentioned information for your cybersecurity and to protect yourself from cybercrime. Happy browsing!

Audi SQ8 Shows Diesel Still Tops For Torque
Diesel is still the king of the torque curve according to Audi's new biturbo V8 engine in the SQ8 heralded as the most powerful diesel engine available in Europe.
The engine delivers 423bhp and 664ft-lbs of torque to the rear wheels, enough to power the monster SUV to 62mph from standstill in just 4.8 seconds on the way to an electronically limited 155mph top speed.
Audi has made the diesel engine more responsive thanks to placing the hot exhaust side, with the two turbochargers, in the V of the cylinder block. Only one turbocharger operates at low revs, with the second turbo kicking in at around 2,200 rpm. There's also an electrically-powered compressor (EPC) which helps the turbos were starting off, located in a bypass behind the intercooler. This ensures excellent throttle response and means the turbos can get up to speed quickly and efficiently.
The mild-hybrid system also uses the EPC for a 48-volt battery, which can recover up to 8kW of power during deceleration, feeding this energy into the battery. At speeds between 34 mph and 99 mph, the motor can recover energy from the crankshaft, travel while the engine is idling, or deactivate the engine entirely and coast for up to 40 seconds.
