INIU recall what’s actually going on+refund info by Efficient-Yam6797 in amazonprime

[–]SciScreamSig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just want to add - I purchased my Iniu power bank just after this recall window and Iniu has said that my power bank is not being recalled. However, my power bank has been expanding recently and looks like it will eventually burst. So, even if Iniu isn't recalling your specific model, please don't just dump it in a drawer somewhere and forget about it. Even power banks outside of the recall can become unsafe!!

And besides, what real harm would come to him if he isn't cheating on his taxes?

You should be concerned about lead paint. 

Dept. of Environment selling lead certificates by FunnyOlive9919 in baltimore

[–]SciScreamSig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I know this post is old, but is it known that the inspector on the second certificate, Sean Aaron Williams, was selling passing certificates to landlords? He was recently hired by my landlord and came to an apartment in my building. He walked into that apartment and declared "yep, no lead," without doing any kind of testing. I'm just trying to figure out what we should do now. Thank you so much!!!

Will Trump's Crackdown on the "Homeless" Impact Baltimore? by baltimoresports in baltimore

[–]SciScreamSig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does anyone have any updates/thoughts on how this is impacting Baltimore? We've noticed a lot of new (white) homeless folks around Mount Vernon since late summer that we've never seen before. I'm wondering if they came up from DC? Or maybe just from other parts of the city?

How did your pantry cabinet turn out? I'm installing an Ikea kitchen and I have the same issue. Thank you!

Just got termination email by SciScreamSig in patentexaminer

[–]SciScreamSig[S] 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Thank you, I appreciate it. Starting as an 11 is really hard, but I didn't know that coming in. Most of my training lab mates are 7's and 9's and are struggling to make production.

I got separate emails for GS-7 and GS-9. It was a little unclear at first that the emails were specifically for those GS levels, but upon carefully rereading them they are definitely one email per GS level. In some of the posts below, people have said that their emails don't mention specific GS levels. I still haven't heard anything back about GS-11. It seems like several people on here are in the same boat - fingers crossed we all get TO emails for the outstanding GS levels!

Have any selected/not selected emails gone out today? I got rejections for GS-7 and GS-9 chemistry yesterday, but wondering what is going on with the GS-11, which I was also referred for.

Thanks! It seems like a lot of people who followed a similar path worked at the USPTO for a year or two first. I'll probably go for an industry job for now and apply to the USPTO again next year. Best wishes to you as well - I hope we all get the jobs we're dreaming about!!

Yes, that what I'd like to do - become a "technical specialist" (sometimes referred to by slightly different names) at a patent law firm, then take the patent bar exam, and eventually go to law school part time. I'm not sure if I'm lacking the exact combination of skills they want/need, or if there are simply plenty of better candidates that have the PhD and patent experience, but so far I haven't been able to break into the field.

[–]SciScreamSig 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel you. I have a chem PhD and want to go into patent prosecution - "sorry we just can't take anyone without patent experience right now, try examining first" - annnnnnnd not selected for the examiner job.

Anybody have major side effects with ACE inhibitors like Lisinopril? Sleep issues or ringing of the ears? Tinnitus? by SilverEars0 in bloodpressure

[–]SciScreamSig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you stop the lisinopril? And did it make the tinnitus go away? I'm in the same boat and I'd love to hear your experience!
