Duster was born in 2010, overhauled for the first time in 2017, and rose to the top by rewriting the SUV rulebook.<br/><br/>And Duster is a success story: in its 13-year-long career, it has netted more than 40 awards, production is at 2.4 million units and counting, and its steadily increasing popularity ranked it as Europe’s best-selling SUV across all segments in the retail market in 2022. About 1,000 Duster SUVs roll off production lines at Dacia’s plant in Pitesti, Romania, every day – about one every minute!<br/><br/>All-New Duster is built on the CMF-B platform, which is playing a central role in Dacia’s industrial strategy.

It still has the striking looks that propelled the previous generations to the top – especially its solid, sturdy SUV character – but pushes them higher, further and harder with Dacia’s new, distinctive design. All-New Duster is proud to parade its overhauled design.The designers started with simple volumes – the cabin, bonnet, wings, etc. Then they assembled them into a clear-cut whole, to give the model a modern, well-built style, with deliberately taut, self-confident lines.<br/><br/>The simple shapes and volumes add to the design’s power – including the sharp, vertical face, chamfered wheel-arch guards, large tailgate and side windows reaching seamlessly from bow to stern.<br/><br/>All-New Duster is shielded with a stylish belt wrapping all the way around it: the side underbody shields connect to the hallmarks then to the wheel arches, which in turn connect to the front and rear bumpers, making All-New Duster more robust and outdoor than ever!")

The award show took place consistently from 1992 until 2019 before being halted in 2020 by the Covid-19 pandemic. The ceremony then returned the following two years but was once again put on hold in 2023 due to the Writers Guild of America strike, which started just five days prior. An MTV spokesperson reports that the award show will return in 2025 in a new and reimagined format. Filmmaker Roger Corman dies at 98. Often referred to as 'The King of Bs,' Corman worked on hundreds of films over a seven-decade timespan including The Little Shop of Horrors , Black Scorpion , and Bloody Mama . He helped jumpstart careers and served as a mentor to many of today's most notable directors including James Cameron, Martin Scorsese, and Robert De Niro. Corman passed on May 9 in his California home as revealed by his family on social media. Lea Michele reveals she is expecting her first daughter. The actress/singer celebrated Mother's Day on social media by revealing the sex of her baby. Michele posted a photo of her bump on Instagram writing 'The most beautiful Mother's Day today, holding my son who made me a mama...and carrying my daughter.'

_shaping-the-future-workforce-why-corporate-education-benefits-matter.jpg "As corporate America evolves to meet the changing needs of the modern workforce, employee education benefits have emerged as a critical element in attracting and retaining top talent. Alongside traditional benefits such as health care and retirement plans, education benefits are increasingly recognized as essential for addressing the priorities of both candidates and current employees. One reason for this is simple - college can be expensive. According to a recent study although 75% of Americans recognize the value of obtaining a bachelor's degree, over half (56%) of individuals who have never enrolled or were previously enrolled cite cost as a significant deterrent to pursuing or reenrolling in postsecondary education. The goal of corporate education benefits is to provide employees with various avenues for professional growth and development while alleviating the financial burden associated with higher education. For employers, offering education benefits also has its benefits, as companies that offer education programs to their employees also stand to gain on several fronts: Retention and Talent Advancement: Investing in employee education fosters loyalty, engagement and encourages career advancement, leading to higher education rates. Reduced Acquisition Costs: By nurturing existing talent, businesses can reduce the need for frequent recruitment and onboarding, thereby cutting down on acquisition costs. Attraction of Top Talent: Competitive education benefits can serve as a powerful recruitment tool, attracting high-caliber candidates who prioritize continuous learning and personal development. A Leading Example: Starbucks College Achievement Plan (SCAP). Starbucks was among the first to offer tuition assistance in 2014 with the Starbucks College Achievement Plan (SCAP), a first of its kind partnership with Arizona State University (ASU). This program creates an opportunity for all eligible U.S. partners (employees) to earn their first-time bachelor's degree through ASU's top-ranked online degree program. Ten years later, Starbucks has celebrated its largest class of SCAP graduates, marking a decade of transformative impact through a pioneering tuition assistance initiative. How does it work? Upfront tuition coverage for online degrees with no strings attached: Unlike many programs that cap tuition benefits, SCAP offers full tuition coverage, all upfront. And there is no commitment to stay with the company after graduation. High-quality education: Partners enrolled in SCAP benefit from ASU's top-ranked online degree program with over 150 undergraduate degree programs to choose from ensuring access to the same caliber of education as on-campus students. Pathway to Admission: Starbucks and ASU provide an admissions pathway for partners who do not initially qualify for enrollment. Through Pathway to Admission, eligible partners can take up to 10 college-level courses to earn their admission into the university, with credit conversion costs fully covered. To date, the SCAP program has helped more than 13,000 partners earn their degree. And, according to data from The Burning Glass Institute, approximately 75% of SCAP participants have experienced significant career growth post-graduation. But to Starbucks, SCAP represents just one facet of the diverse landscape of education benefits available to employees. In 2022, the company also rolled out a student loan management tool as part of a financial well-being push. Through Tuition.io, employees have access to tools, resources and individual coaching to manage student loan debt, such as repayment options and loan refinancing. Success stories like Starbucks and others serve as compelling evidence of the tangible benefits of investing in employee education. Beyond immediate career advancement, these initiatives lay the groundwork for sustained growth, both for individuals and the companies that support them.
