Message-Id: <-54627-220319191949-29986-mcAn6TjSpmTqBmqSIVIYng||server.ccl.net> X-Original-From: "Jan Labanowski" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Date: Sat, 19 Mar 2022 19:19:41 -0400 MIME-Version: 1.0 Sent to CCL by: "Jan Labanowski" [jkl/a\wowway.biz] Dear CCL Members, The only income that currently supports the CCL comes from the Jobs Available Page at http://www.ccl.net/jobs The prices for posting a job opening on this page were not changed since 2004. They are currently $100 (if you post an ad yourself via a Web Interface), and $150 (if you send me the ad to jobs[#]ccl.net in a text or MS Word format, and then I format and post the ad myself). There is also a wire transfer surcharge of $40 for those who make payments by international wire transfer rather than credit card, check or PayPal. Since that time the inflation took its toll and according to the inflation calculator https://www.usinflationcalculator.com/ the cumulative rate of inflation is 50% since 2004. I actually noticed it "experimentally", since the CCL brings a deficit in last years. For this reason, sometime in April, I will have to increase the charge for this services to $150 and $225, respectively. The wire transfer surcharge will be $60. So, if you have the position to announce, do it soon to take advantage of lower prices. For those that did not use this service of CCL, be assured that this is a successful way to get candidates in the fields of theoretical and computational chemistry and biology. I have many "thank-yous" to attest to this. Sorry about it, but if the CCL is still to be considered useful, it needs to cover its cost of operation. I am not happy to bring you yet another bad news in addition to all other news that you hear. Jan -- Jan Labanowski CCL Maintained ccl[#]ccl.net , jkl[#]wowway.biz
