 began the procedure of getting rid of that Azlan person.
The fact is, Pres Trump isn’t in trouble, not under investigation & doesn’t appear to be disturbed. It’s important to remember he’s consistent & remember that when he’s not shown in public for more than a couple of days while the Dem Media decides to paint one of their tragic pictures of a “president under siege”.
It’s also important to note that the investigations weren’t created targeting Trump or his campaign. It was the Wikileaks email thing last summer & everything else is just a dragnet.
‘Does not directly dispute?’ How about ‘directly confirms’?
Good point. To me, any fair-minded person would have your exact reaction, thus would go straight to reading it as ‘directly confirms’.
But if I put myself into the Democrat Fever Swamp mentality…CNN probably meant to leave those people a wiggle of hope/belief that Trump *might* still be under some sort of investigation. Because those people are CNN’s main audience.
And that’s a pretty cheap move, on CNN’s part. Because yeah…Comey the Leaker did DIRECTLY CONFIRM that Trump is not under investigation.
And nominating conservative judges. Wouldn’t it be funny if all this were a distraction/trap, that Trump had set for the Left?Maybe you are trying to land your first job. Perhaps you are returning to the workplace. Or maybe you are a seasoned executive taking another step up the career ladder.
Whatever your situation, making a success of the job interview is vital.
Are you able to do the job?
Are you willing to put in the effort to make the job a success?
To answer this question you must have researched the company. Reply with the company’s attributes as you see them. Cap your answer with reference to your belief that the company can provide you with a stable and happy work environment – and that such an atmosphere would encourage your best work. What would you like to be doing five years from now?
The safest answer contains a desire to be regarded as a true professional and team player. As far as promotion, that depends on finding a manager with whom you can grow. Of course, you will ask what opportunities exist within the company before being any more specific.
This question is not geared solely to rate your progress; it also rates your self-esteem. Be positive, yet do not give the impression you have already done your best work. Make the interviewer believe you see each day as an opportunity to learn and contribute, and that you see the environment at this company as conducive to your best efforts.
This is not an invitation to ramble on. If the context isn’t clear, you need to know more about the question before giving an answer. Whichever direction your answer ultimately takes be sure that it has some relevance to your professional endeavours. You should also refer to one or more of your key personal qualities, such as honesty, integrity, being a team player, or determination. For example, if you chose ‘team player’, you can tell a story about yourself outside work – perhaps as a member of a sports team – that also speaks volumes about you at work. What are you looking for in your next job?
You want a company where your talents and experience will allow you to contribute to their business. Avoid saying what you want the company to give you; you must say what you want in terms of what you can give to your employer. The key word is ‘contribution’.
How well do you feel other people rated your job performance?
Isolate high points from your background and build in a couple of your key personal qualities, such as pride in your work, reliability and the ability to stick with a difficult task, yet change course rapidly when required.
Why do you want to leave your current job? Or Why did you leave your last job?
Advancement: there was nowhere for you to go.
This is a direct invitation to put your head in a noose. Decline the invitation. If there is a minor part of the job at hand where you lack knowledge, but knowledge you will obviously pick up quickly, use that. For instance: ‘I haven’t worked with this type of spreadsheet before but, given my experience with six other types, I should be able to pick it up in a few days.’ Another option is to design the answer so your weakness is ultimately a positive characteristic. For example: ‘I always give each project my best shot, so if I sometimes feel others aren’t pulling their weight, I find it a little frustrating. I try to overcome it with a positive attitude that I hope will catch on.’ Also consider the technique of putting a problem in the past and showing how you overcame it.
Find out why the job is open, who had it last and what happened to him or her?
How many people have held this position in the last couple of years?
To whom would you report? Will you get the opportunity to meet that person?
Where is the job located? What are the travel requirements, if any?
What type of training is required and how long is it?
What would your first assignment be?
What are the realistic chances for growth in the job? Where are the opportunities for greatest growth within the company?
What are the skills and attributes most needed to get ahead in the company?
Who will be the company’s main competitor over the next few years? How does the interviewer feel the company stacks up against them?
What has been the growth pattern of the company in the last five years? Is it profitable? How profitable?
If there is a written job description, can you see it?
How regularly do performance evaluations occur? What model do they follow?

Contrary to many people these days, I've decided to upscale from ITX to ATX. This is because I feel the current crop of ITX cases have too many compromises for the system I want. I'd like to keep hold of my ATX PSU, have sufficient radiator support and ideally have an aesthetically pleasing system to have sat on my desk.
I was struggling to find a Z97 ATX board so ended up going full upgrade and have a i5-8600k and Asus Z370-F motherboard. I'm also keeping my Asus Strix GTX980 due to the insane cost of GPU's these days, plus my main game (Overwatch) doesn't seem to stress the card.
But first... BOXES!
Should be built in one day (tomorrow), will update in due course.
And thanks, yes the view is rather nice from my flat. Not great for privacy or noise from City airport, but the water is nice to look out on.
I have a 4770k and i'll be interested in understanding how much of an improvement a 6 core IPC gain cpu performs vs your old 4790k.
What monitor you game on?
A 32" Samsung 2560x1440 VA panel, from my graphic design days. I'd love a high refresh rate monitor, but it's a huge investment.
Will report back with all my findings once it gets going, benchmarks and all. Can't wait!
Interested in seeing how this comes along. Your current rig looks really nice, seems a shame to break it up!!
Thanks @GinG, it's been a great system for a year but one of my favourite things to do is to recase my system, it's the most enjoyable part.
Just the case to arrive now. Didn't buy it from OCUK, something I now regret as it's both late and the customer service I have received has been shocking.
Anyway, obligatory money shot!
Made some progress on this yesterday and today. Sadly I also found that some of the components I had initially chosen were not suitable so it's perhaps not as flashy as I'd have liked. Either way I'm happy with how a lot of the bends came out and looking forward to filling the system.
Here are some in-progress pictures...
And my attempt of sleeving the EKWB D5 cables as they were nasty green and blue.
I never fitted a drain valve to my first build, something that I regretted! I couldn't think where to put one on this build, here is MK1, but it may change before the end of the build. I ended up going for matte black because I couldn't find the dark chrome XSPC ball valve anywhere! It also looks inconspicuous amongst the black areas of the case.
A few more bends done. The top to front rad connection is quite a complex bend with 4 bends with multiple radiuses.
And this is how it sits as of earlier today. I'm away on work until Friday evening so will hopefully get it going on my return.
Not 100% sure I like the GPU to CPU bend, it was a fun challenge to bend but I may change it.
Just to say this project, apart from some cable management, is now finished.
I'll be doing final pictures tomorrow. Apart from a few bends I'm really happy how it's turned out.
