While HR departments can be helpful, they can't fix your problems unless you help yourself first. Related VideoAlthough HR can help with a lot, they can't fix every problem you may have as an employee. HR can't make decisions aloneEvery HR department is run differently, so while HR tasks may vary, HR isn't typically a decision-making entity but more of a recommending entity. HR can't advocate for you without youPeople often assume that their boss or HR will come to them with promotions or opportunities, but HR can't just get you a job or a promotion — you have to advocate for it. HR can't do everything for you, but they can help you to the greatest of their ability if you do your part, too.

Here are four red flags to look for when choosing a financial professional, plus one green flag that an advisor could be a good fit, according to certified financial planners and advisors from across the U.S.Red flag No. 1: The financial advisor does most of the talkingIf a potential financial planner is doing most of the talking without letting you get a word in edgewise, it's a bad sign. Financial advisors who are also registered as investment advisors will have a public disclosure record with the SEC as well. In addition, you will also want to make sure that your financial advisor is certified in the way they claim. 4: You don't trust themOne red flag can't be found on a list or spreadsheet: lack of trust.

☆ The risky mix of antidepressants and college life
▼ + stars: | 2024-11-11 | by ( Dr. Jill Grimes | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +10 min

CNN —Is it safe to drink alcohol while taking antidepressant medications? More than one-third of college students today suffer from moderate to severe anxiety and depressive symptoms, according to the 2023-204 Health Minds Study, and it’s good that many are getting help. About 1 in 5 college students, or 22%, report taking prescription antidepressants within the preceding year, the study found, and about 1 in 3 students, or 36%, has received professional counseling. Drinking alcohol, which ultimately depletes these chemicals, therefore creates more work to improve your mental health, which is the primary reason not to drink while taking antidepressants. No doctor, including me, is ever going to recommend drinking alcohol while taking antidepressants.

☆ West Bank: Israeli minister calls for preparations to annex settlements

CNN —Israel’s far-right finance minister, Bezalel Smotrich, has ordered preparations for the annexation of settlements in the Israeli-occupied West Bank. President-elect Donald Trump’s victory in the US election “brings an important opportunity for the State of Israel,” Smotrich told the Knesset, or Israeli parliament. The “only way to remove” the “threat” of a Palestinian state, Smotrich added, “is to apply Israeli sovereignty over the entire settlements in Judea and Samaria,” the biblical term by which Israelis refer to the West Bank. Around half a million Israelis live in West Bank settlements. Smotrich, himself a settler, has long called for Israeli law to apply in the settlements, and previously opposed the creation of an independent Palestinian state.

LinkedIn has seen a 29% increase this year in users who list their preferred pronouns. AdvertisementDetractors might consider it woke, but more professionals are including their preferred pronouns on their LinkedIn profiles. LinkedIn added space for users to include their preferred pronouns in their profiles in March 2021. Cooper, who said she doesn't indicate preferred pronouns, said that for some people sharing their pronouns can signal support for marginalized groups. She said that, ultimately, while some people find comfort in sharing their preferred pronouns, what that says about a person might be limited.

Michael Hyun used creative financing to buy a home amid high mortgage rates in 2023. A provision in the mortgage contract called the due-on-sale clause makes this approach risky. But they had one advantage: Eileen was a real-estate agent, which qualified her as a real-estate professional under tax law. There, he found wholesalers, middlemen that buy property under contract to sell the contracts and transfer the property to the buyer. So, instead of going into foreclosure, they sold it to Hyun and transferred the mortgage, which had a balance owed of $368,486 at a 2.75% mortgage rate.

Yet Durham found that no senior FBI or CIA officials had committed crimes. Former intelligence officials disagree on whether Trump would seek to use the spy agencies against domestic political opponents, and if he did, how the intelligence workforce and courts would respond. Presidents face few legal constraints when it comes to their authority over the intelligence agencies, legal experts and former senior officials said. Supporters of Trump say dire warnings about the future of the intelligence agencies under a new Trump administration are hysterical and overblown, and that his record at the White House shows that he strengthened the spy agencies. “And the other is the risk that the intelligence agencies will be directed to do things that are either unlawful or inappropriate.”

"Allowing venting to happen is healthy, but validating venting can make it become gossip. In the video, Kuburic defined venting as "you-focused" and gossiping as "other-focused." Sharing your frustrations about a stressful project is venting, for example, while criticizing a colleague's skills or work ethic behind their back is gossiping.

Similarly, active ETFs carry a 0.63% average fee, versus 1.02% for actively managed mutual funds, Morningstar data show. 'Cheap mutual funds also exist'ETFs and mutual funds are similar. While ETFs tend to be cheaper, on average, that's not to say mutual funds are always more expensive.

President-elect Donald Trump on Thursday named co-campaign chair Susie Wiles as his White House first chief of staff, one of the most important non-elected posts in Washington. “Susie Wiles just helped me achieve one of the greatest political victories in American history, and was an integral part of both my 2016 and 2020 successful campaigns,” Trump said in a statement Thursday. After Trump’s resounding victory Tuesday over Vice President Kamala Harris, there was an overwhelming sense that Wiles was the frontrunner to be White House chief of staff. “I’m told you know something about Florida,” Trump told Wiles when they first spoke on the phone, NBC News reported in March. Response to Wiles’ hire as chief of staff was overwhelmingly positive from Republicans.

Donald Trump’s return to the presidency has done something no political opponent could: put an end date on his time atop the Republican Party. Trump single-handedly remade the Republican Party in his own image, not only becoming its unquestioned leader but also rewiring what the Grand Old Party stands for. “We are getting four more years of Trump and then eight years of JD Vance!” Trump Jr. said last week as he campaigned for Ohio Senate candidate Bernie Moreno. He had a shaky start, but he has steadied himself,” a veteran Republican operative said. “A Trump win means [the 2028] field will be slower to develop,” a longtime Republican operative said.

If chosen, Wiles would become the first female White House chief of staff in history. “The team of rivals concept did not apply here.”"Susie is as good as they get," a second Trump campaign official said. A third Trump campaign official said Wiles is already playing the de-facto chief of staff role and that staffers widely want her to get the job. “She would be everybody’s number one pick, but it’s his decision,” the first campaign official said. Other names actively under consideration for the White House chief of staff role include Brooke Rollins, a former top White House aide to Trump who now leads the Trump-aligned America First Policy Institute, and former House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy.

In the final weeks of the campaign, Trump kept supporters at a Michigan rally waiting for hours after he detoured to Texas to record Rogan’s show.
