TASK 001 - THE NEWS

LOCATION: Angus's office in D.C. DATE: September 2, 2005 TASK: How does your character react to learning of Richard’s passing?

“Mr. Byrne, you have mail on your desk–” were the first words that greeted Angus.

“Thank you, Heather.”

“And Dana Palfrey’s on the line–” His eyes could’ve rolled back into his head, and he really wanted them to express the depth of his annoyance. Angus managed to keep his face coolly disinterested instead.

“And you told him I’d rather chew glass than hear his voice in my ear at 7 in the gee-dee morning?”

“I’ll tell him you’re preparing for an early morning meeting and that you’ll get back to him by lunch.”

“Fan-fuckin’-tastic.”

It was a typical morning exchange, only made slightly different by the early usage of a curse and the fact that Angus hadn’t gone home the night before. He’d stopped at his gym an hour before for a quick shower and change, but he still felt that tacky, uncomfortable feeling from not getting to stand under the hot stream of water in his bathroom at home. He adjusted the tie around his neck, his hair curling damply over his ears. He thought unkindly about how he needed a haircut.

Inside his office, unfortunately, sat two members of his legislative staff, waiting for orders because it always seemed that everyone there was a child except for him. His pile of mail sat neatly on his dark oak desk; about a year ago, he started to forward all of it to the office. The fewer people who knew his address, the better. The extra security measure didn't hurt either. He hid a yawn behind the back of his hand, then tossed his suit jacket over the back of his chair.

Angus had been operating on fumes for two weeks straight — not even his overworked, overpriced La Spaziale could churn out enough caffeine to keep him from rubbing his eyes and slapping at his cheek. FEMA was a shit-show; slow responses and an inability to coordinate efforts with other federal relief organizations turned Congress into a hotbed of debate.

Everyone needed a statement, legislation was hitting the floor, and Angus hadn’t slept in close to 48 hours. The whip-fast, frantic conversation that unraveled between his staff did little to deter the creeping headache he felt starting in his temples and pulsing toward his forehead.

“Fundamentally, the problem is when they issued the evacuation order: that affects poor people differently. They predominantly don’t have cars. If they wanted to do any of this right, we should have had buses lined up to take them out–” Ava Perez, 26, Princeton class of ‘02. She was a stalwart Legislative Correspondent on Angus’ team for 9 months. Angus appreciated her hard work, but she could be a bleeding heart. Great optics, poor execution.

“And just how many buses would’ve pleased you?” Ethan Wolk, 27, UC Berkley class of ‘01. He was a loud-mouthed Legislative Assistant under Angus for the better part of 2 years. His parents owned a series of businesses up and down the Jersey Shore. Opportunistic, he took the first Senate job that was offered to him. Hungry and ambitious, he often lacked that overlooked gift of empathy.

Usually, he pitted them against each other to see what would happen – if anything, anything of substance would eventually get rattled out of their heads. Most of the time, they didn’t seem to cough up much more than thin, lackluster arguments, and rarely in words of their own; an echo of a professor, an activist, a father. Angus sat down, pinching at the space between his eyes as he mentally mapped out his schedule for the day – and for everything he needed to get done outside of work, as well.

“–Empty vans to save the belongings of those with no home or floor insurance–”

“And that’s why the President is moving forward within the federal government with a comprehensive review of all Cabinet departments and their response efforts. That’s why they’re going to work closely with Congress to make sure that they conduct a thorough investigation so that we can apply those lessons–”

“‘Apply those lessons.’”

“Yes. Apply those lessons to future response efforts.”

Angus's eyes snapped open and he straightened in his chair. He had done something inadvisable over the past month or so for Ethan and Ava to think that they could set up shop in there when he wasn't around. Maybe he'd gotten too soft, needed too much help, offered too much guidance – these people were coworkers. Technically his responsibility, but adults in their own right. He pushed against the floor, sending his chair closer to his desk.

“Response efforts are ongoing," he poked, entertaining them for the brief amount of time it took to reach for the stack of mail. "What about the right here, right now?”

“She’s the one who brought up evacuation orders," Ethan answered, voice teetering on whiny.

“And you’re the one defending them," Ava accused.

“What do you want me to say?”

“I want you to say he fucked up.”

“He fucked up! Obviously!”

“Yeah, he fucked up! He’s currently fucking up. And what is this junk that was introduced on the floor yesterday? What the hell is a ‘core disaster area’?”

“First of all, why the hell are you in here?” Angus interrupted, not looking up from the stack of mail. Bill, bill, fundraising plea from some wildlife organization, Georgetown requesting donations… “Secondly, in a perfect world, the entirety of New Orleans would be the core disaster area. The damage to their infrastructure alone will cause ripple effects throughout the national economy."

“Yes, in the short run–” Ethan spoke up.

“In the short run, these people will need more promises than temporary – very temporary – tax relief. We have to ask why the federal government has not been more willing, not more able, and not more ready, to help. Ideally, we should finetune her response to this proposition,” Ava rejoined. "That's why we're in here."

The last envelope felt different between his fingers; the paper was softer, more expensive, not mass-produced. The sensation of it alone gave him pause, tapping the pad of his thumb against a corner – once, twice, and then he turned it. Elegant cursive: Angus P. Byrne, return address New York. Woodrow House. His dry, tired eyes stung, rendering the letters fuzzy as he stared. His stomach poised itself to drop.

“Voting Nay on this will torpedo her chances in 2008," Ethan pointed out.

“Well, I’m not saying to vote Nay–” Ava continued.

“Do anything to argue against it and we look like fussy, money-hungry Liberals.”

“Well, Angus is an Independent, strictly speaking–”

“And you’re talking out of your ass, is what you are.”

“And you’re talking from… which orifice that accepted a dinner party invitation from Rick fucking Santorum again?”

Angus P. Byrne, return address New York. Woodrow House. Mrs. Tristan's swoopy, neat penmanship. He recognized it almost immediately, and it certainly wasn't Uncle Richard's handwriting. Angus felt like he stood on a precipice, that this would be one of those Before moments.

Like George's face as a newborn baby, scrunched up and ready to cry. Like Angus standing awkwardly outside an office door in an old, musty building when he was 13, listening to his dad spin tales to a group of gruff men inside. Like sitting in a tree beside Malcolm, his brother's cheeks turned purple-red with frustration at Angus' words and poised to push him out. Like his mother humming softly, her locks of chestnut hair dancing out the passenger side window and past his own directly behind her; the summer air buzzed, the radio crackled, a game of I Spy trailed off.

He didn't know what was inside the letter, but he knew he didn't want to open it to an audience.

“Get out,” Angus suddenly ordered, spine straight as he interrupted their argument with a steady, hard voice. Two heads swiveled toward him, horror-movie twins eternally agog. They blinked at him, and he finally met their eyes. For a moment, no one moved. His jaw clenched, patience snapping like a wire pulled too taut, too fast. "Jesus H. – don't act stupid," he snapped. "Get the hell out."

They seemed to get the message then, scrambling hurriedly from the chairs on the opposite side of his desk, leaving them squeaking in surprise in their wake. It was when he heard his door click shut that he finally took out his letter opener and slid it under the seal flap. With tense hands, he unfolded the letter tucked inside – eyes quickly scanning, taking in information.

It is with a heavy heart...

The world around him blurred. It was like he lost track of the seconds; there didn't seem to be any real moment between him sitting and him standing, clutching a paperweight in his hand. His knuckles were white. It would've been an easy thing to give into that first instinct, to send it careening across his office. To let it shatter glass, dent metal, chip wood; to make a loud noise, to demand attention, to loudly proclaim hurt – or the intention to.

For the minute that he stood there, between two actions, Angus thought about how badly he wanted it. How badly he wanted to trust that someone else would ensure the world didn't burn down. How badly he wanted to be a son again, a kid again, to let someone else carry everything. He stood there, let it ache for a full thirty seconds, and then the paperweight fell with a thud onto the antique rug long-ago placed under his desk. Inside his coat pocket, he heard his cell buzz. He jabbed at a key on his office phone that would summon Heather to him.

Angus ran a hand through his hair as his eyes stared emptily at the framed American flag on the wall, waiting for when he'd have to jump back into action. He needed to give Ethan and Ava a list of to-do's for the next several days. He needed to call Dana Palfrey back. He needed to request bereavement. He needed to fucking pray that leaving for a week wouldn't come back to bite him in the ass.

He tugged at the damp strands of his hair, his stomach souring. He needed to schedule a haircut.

As you're in the insurance business, what advice can you give on fighting to keep your car from being declared a loss after a collision that was ruled the other driver's fault? Geico is trying to pull this 75% bullshit. They even sent a guy who is obviously new at being an adjuster

I KNEW I HAD AN ASK so sadly, new york and new jersey are their own beasts, their laws are so stupidly different than the rest of the country you have to take what i say with a grain of salt

so for the sake of ease i'll call this your auto policy. if it was the other drivers fault, but your insurance is paying for your car, that typically means you filed a claim against your own insurance, and they will go after the other part to collect damaged (the fancy term is subrogation)

if that's whats happened, that's a can of worms you cannot close.

Totally a car is simply that the cost to repair is greater than the actual cash value of the car (this is far lower than you think)

what you can do is:

provide estimates, think of this like a 2nd opinion. i personally highly recommend getting repair estimates before filing a claim

ask for a new adjuster

ask for the manager of the adjuster and ask about the appeal process.

unless theyre specifically claims licenses, don't ask your agent (unless the adjuster is ignoring you), we are locked out of claims stuff almost completely

Steps to Take Filing a Motor Vehicle Accident Claim in NJ

Motor vehicle accidents in New Jersey can be distressing and life-altering experiences. When you or a loved one is involved in a car crash, it's important to understand the steps to take when filing a motor vehicle accident claim. These steps are essential for ensuring your rights are protected, seeking compensation for damages, and navigating the complex legal and insurance processes. In this blog, we'll guide you through the crucial steps involved in filing a motor vehicle accident claim in New Jersey.

Step 1: Ensure Safety and Seek Medical Attention

Immediately after an accident, the safety and well-being of all involved parties should be the top priority. Ensure that everyone is out of harm's way and call for medical assistance if necessary. It's essential to get a medical evaluation even if you don't appear to be seriously injured, as some injuries may not manifest immediately but could have long-term consequences.

Step 2: Contact Law Enforcement

In New Jersey, it is generally required to report any accident involving injuries, fatalities, or property damage exceeding $500 to the local law enforcement agency. Contact the police and request an officer to come to the scene of the accident. They will prepare a police report, which is an important document for your accident claim.

Step 3: Gather Evidence

While at the accident scene, collect as much information as possible. This includes:

Exchange Information: Obtain contact and insurance information from all parties involved in the accident. This information is vital for the insurance claim process.

Witness Statements: If there are witnesses to the accident, collect their contact information and statements. Their testimony can be invaluable in establishing fault.

Photographs: Take pictures of the accident scene, vehicle damage, road conditions, and any visible injuries. Visual evidence can be compelling in proving your case.

Step 4: Seek Medical Treatment

Even if your injuries seem minor, it's important to see a healthcare professional promptly. This not only ensures your health but also creates a medical record of your injuries, which is crucial for your claim. Delayed medical treatment can weaken your case, as insurance companies may question the severity and cause of your injuries.

Step 5: Notify Your Insurance Company

Report the accident to your insurance company as soon as possible. Even if you are not at fault, your insurance company needs to be informed. Be prepared to provide them with the basic details of the accident. Avoid making any statements or admissions to the insurance adjuster that could be used against you later.

Step 6: Consult an Attorney

Consider consulting with a skilled motor vehicle accident attorney in New Jersey. An experienced attorney can provide invaluable guidance through the claim process, help you understand your rights, and ensure that you receive fair compensation. They can also assist in dealing with insurance companies and navigating legal complexities.

Step 7: Determine Fault and Liability

In New Jersey, the concept of comparative negligence is used to determine liability. This means that fault can be distributed among multiple parties involved in the accident. New Jersey follows a modified comparative negligence rule, where you can recover damages if you are less than 50% at fault. Your attorney will help investigate the accident, gather evidence, and establish fault, which is crucial for determining the compensation you are entitled to.

Step 8: File a Personal Injury Claim

If you've sustained injuries in the accident, you may be eligible to file a personal injury claim to seek compensation for medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost wages, and more. Your attorney will guide you through the process of filing a personal injury claim, ensuring that it is properly documented and filed within the statute of limitations in New Jersey, which is typically two years from the date of the accident.

Step 9: Negotiate with Insurance Companies

Insurance companies will often attempt to settle motor vehicle accident claims quickly and for the least amount possible. Your attorney will negotiate with the insurance companies on your behalf, ensuring that you receive a fair settlement that covers your damages. If the initial settlement offer is inadequate, your attorney will work to secure a better outcome, even if it requires litigation.

Step 10: Prepare for Litigation (if Necessary)

If a fair settlement cannot be reached through negotiation, your attorney may recommend pursuing a lawsuit. This involves initiating legal proceedings, presenting your case in court, and letting a judge or jury determine the compensation you are entitled to. Litigation can be a lengthy and complex process, but your attorney will guide you through every step.

Conclusion

Filing a motor vehicle accident claim in New Jersey is a multifaceted process that requires careful attention to detail, a deep understanding of the law, and the ability to navigate insurance negotiations. By following the steps outlined in this blog and enlisting the expertise of a qualified motor vehicle accident attorney in New Jersey, you can maximize your chances of obtaining fair compensation for your injuries, damages, and losses. It's crucial to act promptly, protect your rights, and seek the support you need to effectively address the aftermath of a motor vehicle accident.

Sens. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., introduced a new bill on Thursday that aims to extend Social Security's solvency for 75 years by raising taxes on the wealthy, while making benefits more generous.

The proposal, called the Social Security Expansion Act, would expand benefits for current and new beneficiaries by $200 per month, or $2,400 per year, and would make the monthly checks more generous in other ways.

To do that, and improve the program's solvency at the same time, the plan also calls for raising taxes on high-earning households.

Sanders and Warren, who are co-chairs of the Expand Social Security Caucus, were joined by Democrats including Sens. Cory Booker of New Jersey, Kirsten Gillibrand of New York, Jeff Merkley of Oregon, Alex Padilla of California, Chris Van Hollen of Maryland and Sheldon Whitehouse of Rhode Island, along with Rep. Peter DeFazio, an Oregon Democrat who introduced companion legislation in the House.

In 2022, payroll taxes are applied to income up to $147,000. The bill calls for lifting that cap and applying the Social Security payroll tax to all income of more than $250,000.

Social Security payroll taxes are applied at a rate of 6.2% for both the employer and employee, for a total of 12.4%, which is deducted from paychecks.

The bill calls for having the wealthy pay more through a 12.4% tax on investment and business income. It would also apply levies to certain business income that is not currently subject to payroll taxes.

"Today, absurdly and unfairly, there is a cap on income subject to Social Security taxes," Sanders said in prepared remarks during a Thursday Senate hearing.

Currently, a worker earning $147,000 pays 6.2% of their income to Social Security payroll taxes. But if instead they earn $1.47 million, they pay just 0.6% of their income to Social Security, Sanders said.

"That may make sense to somebody," Sanders said. "It doesn't make sense to me."

Under the terms of the bill, more than 93% of households would not see their taxes go up.

At the same time, it would extend the program's solvency past 2096.

New projections from the Social Security trustees show the program's combined funds will only be able to pay full benefits until 2035, at which point 80% of benefits will be payable.

Raising taxes on the wealthy in order to shore up the program is popular among voters, according to a survey released this week by the University of Maryland's Program for Public Consultation.

HOW THE BILL WOULD INCREASE BENEFITS

The proposal also calls for boosting benefits in several ways.

It would, for example, increase minimum benefits to 125% of the poverty line and index them. That would amount to about $17,000 for a single worker who has worked for their entire career, according to the proposal.

It also aims to make annual cost-of-living adjustments more generous by changing the measurement by which they are calculated to the consumer price index for the elderly, or CPI-E, which some advocates argue better reflects retiree spending.

The legislation would also restore benefits for students up to age 22 if they are attending college or vocational schools and are the children of disabled or deceased workers. That would reverse a 1983 policy that eliminated benefits for those people.

The effects of the plan has been analyzed by the Office of the Chief Actuary at the Social Security Administration.

"We estimate that enactment of these provisions would extend the ability of the OASDI (Old Age, Survivors, and Disability Insurance) program to pay scheduled benefits in full and on time throughout the 75-year projection period," said Stephen Goss, chief actuary at the Social Security Administration, in a statement.

The new proposal has the backing of advocacy groups focused on expanding Social Security, including Social Security Works and the National Committee to Preserve Social Security and Medicare.

However, Republican leaders were quick to take issue with the plan, particularly the proposed tax increases, at the Senate hearing on Thursday.

"This bill has no chance whatsoever of receiving a single Republican vote in either House," said Sen. Mitt Romney, R-Utah. "So it will not be passed."

Romney has proposed a bill called the TRUST Act, which would create bipartisan committees that would work to identify potential ways to shore up ailing federal programs including the Social Security, Medicare and the highway trust funds.

How to Choose the Perfect Event Production Companies for Your Next Event

Are you planning a special event and want it to be an unforgettable success? You’ve come to the right place! Choosing the right event production company can make all the difference between a lackluster event and a memorable extravaganza. In this blog post, we’ll guide you through the process of selecting the perfect event production company that aligns with your vision, budget, and objectives. So, let’s get started!

1. Understand Your Event Needs and Objectives

The first step is to clearly define your event’s purpose, theme, and objectives. Ask yourself questions like: What is the main goal of the event? Who is the target audience? What type of atmosphere do you want to create? Understanding your needs and objectives will help you communicate effectively with potential event production companies.

2. Research and Shortlist Potential Companies

Time to hit the search engines! Look for event production companies in your area and make a shortlist of potential candidates. Check their websites, portfolios, and client reviews to get a sense of their expertise and reputation. Don’t forget to look for testimonials from previous clients to gauge their level of satisfaction.

3. Experience and Expertise Matters

An experienced event production company is worth its weight in gold. Look for a team that has successfully organized events similar to yours. A well-established company with a proven track record can handle any challenges that may arise during the event planning and execution process.

4. Budget Considerations

It’s essential to have a clear idea of your budget before you start contacting event production companies. Communicate your budget to the shortlisted companies and see if they can work within your financial constraints. Keep in mind that the cheapest option might not always be the best, as quality matters.

5. Creative and Innovative Approach

You want your event to stand out and leave a lasting impression on attendees. Seek an event production company that brings a creative and innovative approach to the table. Look for fresh ideas and unique concepts that align with your vision.

6. Excellent Communication Skills

Effective communication is the backbone of successful event planning. Choose a company that listens to your ideas, provides valuable input, and communicates clearly throughout the planning process. This ensures that everyone is on the same page and avoids misunderstandings.

7. Flexibility and Adaptability

Events can be unpredictable, and last-minute changes are not uncommon. Look for an event production company that is flexible and adaptable, capable of adjusting to unexpected situations without compromising the quality of the event.

8. Quality of Equipment and Resources

A top-notch event production company should have access to state-of-the-art equipment and a wide network of reliable vendors and suppliers. This ensures that your event is equipped with the latest technology and resources.

9. Check for Insurance and Permits

Event planning involves various risks, and it’s crucial to choose a company that has proper insurance coverage. Additionally, they should be well-versed in obtaining the necessary permits for your event, ensuring legal compliance.

10. Evaluate Their Team and Crew

The success of your event relies on the expertise and professionalism of the event production team and crew. Ensure that the company has skilled personnel who can handle different aspects of the event efficiently.

11. Social Media and Online Presence

In today’s digital age, social media and online presence play a significant role in event promotion and engagement. Look for an event production company that is well-versed in leveraging digital platforms to maximize event visibility.

12. Client References

Don’t hesitate to ask for references from past clients. Talking to previous clients will give you valuable insights into the company’s performance, work ethic, and overall satisfaction levels.

13. Sustainable Practices

If sustainability is important to you, inquire about the event production company’s green practices. Many companies are adopting eco-friendly approaches to event planning, which can align with your values and make a positive impact.

14. Compare Proposals and Quotes

Once you’ve gathered proposals from different event production companies, take the time to compare them. Look beyond the numbers and consider the overall value they offer, the level of service, and the extent to which they can meet your specific needs.

15. Trust Your Instincts

Last but not least, trust your instincts. If you feel a strong connection with a particular event production company and believe they truly understand your vision, it’s likely the right choice for your event.

In conclusion, choosing the perfect event production company is a critical step in ensuring the success of your special event. By understanding your needs, researching thoroughly, and considering factors like experience, creativity, and communication, you can find the ideal partner to bring your vision to life. Remember, your event is a reflection of your aspirations, so don’t settle for anything less than excellence!
