VGP – The Government issued Decree 13/2019/ND-CP, dated February 1, 2019 detailing and guiding Article 58 of the Law on Science and Technology regarding the development of scientific and technological enterprises.
Question: What are preferential and supporting policies for scientific and technological enterprises?
Decree 13 also supersedes Decrees No. 80/2007/ND-CP, 96/2010/ND-CP (amended and supplemented by Decrees No. 115/2005/ND-CP and 80/2007/ND-CP) and Article 20 of Decree No. 95/2014/ND-CP.
Scientific and technological enterprises ("STE") are exempt from corporate income tax ("CIT") for four years and enjoy a CIT reduction by 50% for the following nine years.
However, STEs will not be entitled to this incentive in the financial year when they cannot meet the condition on revenue from the products formed by scientific and technological outcomes, which must account for at least 30% of the aggregate revenue.
Besides CIT, STEs are also entitled to the incentives on import and export duties regarding the operations of scientific research, technological development, and business and production activities. Furthermore, STEs are also entitled to a reduction of land and water surface leasing fees, as exempt from registration fees in registering house ownership as prescribed by law.
STEs which implement scientific and technological duties, apply scientific and technological outcomes, produce and trade in the products formed by scientific and technological outcomes will be sponsored, receive loans with preferential interest rates or interest rate assistance, or be provided with guarantees for borrowing capital by the National Technology Innovation Fund, the scientific and technological development funds of ministries, ministerial-level agencies, governmental agencies, provinces and cities under the central authority.
Decree 13 shall come into effect from March 20, 2019./.

After James Comey Got Fired, His 9-Year-Old Neighbor Delivered Homemade Cookies
Fired FBI Director James Comey had a long, hard week, and at the end of it he likely needed a cold one—of milk.
That's because one of his neighbors, a Virginia 9-year-old named Abby Grace, baked him chocolate chip cookies to help him start feeling better, as the girl's mom told NPR exclusively on Friday.
Related: What Just Happened with Trump and Comey? All Your Questions Answered
"As you would imagine - there were a lot of reporters at the foot of his driveway today," the mother said in the wake of the Tuesday night announcement that President Donald Trump had fired Comey. "Abby thought that was quite inhospitable."
So the miniature-but-empathetic chef whipped up a plate of cookies. Still wearing her school uniform, she walked over, and the security guards reportedly let her in to deliver "a dozen cookies fresh from the oven." Comey didn't personally receive the treats, but Abby Grace left him a note.
"We are proud to be your neighbor and thank you for all you have done for America. Love: Abby Grace," it read, according to WUSA 9.
Comey could probably use some cookies in light of the still-unfolding, constantly evolving controversy over his termination.
When the news broke Tuesday, the Trump administration released a letter explaining that the decision came at the recommendation of Attorney General Jeff Sessions and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, who argued Comey should be fired due to his mishandling of the investigation into Hillary Clinton's use of a private email server during her time as secretary of state.
But pundits and politicians noted Comey was in the middle of a probe into the Trump campaign's possible connections with Russia.
"While I greatly appreciate you informing me, on three separate occasions, that I am not under investigation, I nevertheless concur with the judgment of the Department of Justice that you are not able to effectively lead the bureau," Trump wrote in a letter to the director. "It is essential that we find new leadership for the FBI that restores public trust and confidence in its vital law enforcement mission."
Afterward, however, the New York Times published a story alleging Trump wasn't happy Comey wouldn't pledge loyalty to him. The Washington Post said Comey had asked for more resources to boost the Russia investigation.
Then, on Thursday, Trump told NBC News he'd been preparing to let Comey go before he got the Justice Department's recommendation. Headlines shifted again on Friday, when Trump tweeted that Comey should "hope that there are no 'tapes' of our conversations before he starts speaking to the press."
Interviews with candidates to replace Comey have already begun, according to the Hill. But given her penchant for baking and level head, we wonder: Have they considered Abby Grace?

Medical marijuana
I was disheartened to see that a Manatee County woman's medicine was confiscated, and I am hopeful that our political representatives quickly rectify this situation.
When I was a young girl, my brother Pete was diagnosed with ALS (Lou Gehrig's). It was long ago, but I will never forget how he suffered until, bit by bit, he suffocated because he could not breathe. He died at the age of 36. My older sister also died of the same disease at the age of 76, and again I watched the deadly progress of muscle paralysis, of her turning agonizingly into "stone."
It is shameful that the state of Florida still exists in medieval times when it comes to approving marijuana for sufferers of this and other diseases for which it has been shown effective -- not only for pain relief but for continuing better life quality.

'Entitled' generation
Did you catch the irony at Ben Carson's speech (in Sarasota) last week? The crowd cheered his argument that our culture of entitlement is hurting us. However, the audience was made up of seniors, our most entitled and costly group.
The facts are clear: Our aging population already is an increasing -- perhaps devastating -- share of our federal spending. According to a calculation by the Cato Institute, past and current generations will pay $71.3 trillion in payroll taxes, but receive $93.4 trillion in benefits. According to the Urban Institute, average earners receiving Social Security and Medicare will receive significantly more than they "paid in." If the seniors at Carson's speech really are opposed to entitlements, one wonders why they are so stubborn about reforming our Social Security and Medicare systems to be fair to all generations.
Our cowardly politicians won't touch this issue, and seniors can't be blamed for living longer, retiring earlier than perhaps they had to, and taking all they can now that they can't work anymore. Let's just hope that when the next war, disaster, or economic shock hits, our nation is financially strong enough to tackle it.
More importantly, let's hope that seniors are willing to be flexible to help our country -- including children and grandchildren -- regain prosperity and sustainable government spending. Don't hold your breath.

Retiree losses
The Herald-Tribune recently published an anguishing article about the erosion of retirees' earned benefits. The Verizon retiree you profiled is one of over 10 million people who lost their earned retiree health benefits subsequent to retirement, despite career-long promises from employers guaranteeing these earned benefits for our so-called "golden years."
Over the last two decades, it's become fashionable for employers to dump retiree health benefits. According to the Kaiser Family Foundation, only 14.3 million retirees still receive earned health benefits, down from over 30 million. This corporate greed was germinated in conjunction with the Financial Accounting Standards Board preparing an accounting rule change to help corporations manipulate their retiree-related balance sheet liability, after it became obvious that older Americans were living longer.
In 2012, the problem got worse as companies like GM and Verizon began selling off retirees' pensions, converting them to insurance company annuities, making them no longer ERISA protected, nor backed by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corp.
America's retirees are being targeted to pay for the financial crisis while CEOs of federally bailed out companies are not being held accountable for their mismanagement.
This economic assault on older Americans will result in our nation's senior generation devoid of discretionary income and becoming more impoverished. It's time for America's retirees to rise up and defend our collective economic futures.

Downtown sound
I am a resident of the Rivo at Ringling condominiums. My unit is on the east side of the building facing the Eat Here restaurant. I am writing to express concern regarding the loudness of music coming from the restaurant.
Generally, when neighbors have a disagreement, they get together and find a solution that benefits both. Reasonable people have reasonable differences. The least desirable alternative is to involve government entities in the process.
However, in this case it appears government involvement is inevitable. Some sound restrictions in place are not being enforced pending action on development of an entertainment zone in the downtown. This is great for economic and tourist interests, but potentially problematic for residents.
Tonight, the Sarasota City Commission will discuss options for allowing live, outdoor amplified music in bars and restaurants. As a resident I want the downtown to succeed and grow. However, I don't think limiting the hours and loudness of such venues will deter growth. It will promote more growth, because diverse tastes and people of all ages will come. Personally, I would like to hear jazz, folk, band and chamber music, as well as rock.

Arab National Cement Company Hosts New Minya Governor5 November 2012
The new Governor of Minya, Dr. Moustafa Kamel Eissa visited ASEC Cement's US$ 360 million, 2.0 MPTA greenfield cement plant for a tour of the site and a briefing on how the plant will help create as many as 1,200 jobs while supplying cement for the governorate's critical infrastructure projects.\n\nThe Arab National Cement Company (ANCC), a subsidiary of regional cement producer ASEC Cement, is located some 220 kilometers south of Cairo in the Minya governorate. In addition to creating 400 direct and 800 indirect jobs, the plant will be the only producer of grey cement in the region giving it a strong competitive edge.\n\n"I was impressed with the progress I saw," said Eissa. "In addition to providing much-needed employment opportunities, the high-quality Portland grey cement ANCC will produce will capitalize on the abundance of limestone in our governorate. What's more, by choosing to build and create jobs in Minya, ANCC has positioned itself to serve high-demand markets across Upper Egypt."\n\n"We are delighted to have hosted Dr. Kamel," said ASEC Holding Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Giorgio Bodo, who noted that the project will also adhere to the highest global environmental standards. "With the cold run phase of the project now in progress, we are on track to start full production in April of 2013.\n\nANCC is backed by a US$ 200 million syndicated loan from a consortium of local, regional and international banks led by the Arab African International Bank (AAIB) as the mandated lead arranger and underwriter of the facility, which is split into in two tranches. Participating banks include Banque du Caire, United Bank, National Bank of Greece, Bank of Alexandria, Bank Audi and Faisal Islamic Bank.\n\nASEC Cement, a leading regional cement group, is the largest shareholder in ANCC with a 45% stake in the project. Other shareholders in ANCC include Misr Qena Cement (13.9%), Safari Investments (30.7%), IFU/FLS (9.2%) and other shareholders (1.1%).\n\nASEC Cement, a Portfolio Company of Citadel Capital (CCAP.CA on the Egyptian Stock Exchange), also holds a 28% stake in Misr-Qena Cement Company, a publicly traded company on the EGX (ticker: MCQE.CA).\n\n—Ends—\n\n \n\n\nASEC Cement is a Portfolio Company of ASEC Holding, Citadel Capital's platform investment for cement, engineering and construction in the Middle East and Africa. Created by Citadel Capital and a group of leading co-investors, ASEC Cement is emerging as a leading regional cement producer that plans to control approximately 10 million tons of cement per annum by 2015 in attractive, key markets in the MENA region, including Egypt, Sudan and Algeria.\n\nCitadel Capital (CCAP.CA on the Egyptian Stock Exchange) is the leading private equity firm in the Middle East and Africa. Citadel Capital focuses on building regional platforms in select industries through acquisitions, turnarounds, and greenfields executed via Opportunity-Specific Funds. The firm's 19 OSFs now control Platform Companies with investments of US$ 9.5 billion in 15 countries spanning 15 industries, including mining, cement, transportation, food and energy. Since 2004, Citadel Capital has generated more than US$ 2.2 billion in cash returns to its co-investors and shareholders (on investments of US$ 650 million), more than any other private equity firm in the region. Citadel Capital is the largest private equity firm in Africa by PE assets under management (2006-2012, as ranked by Private Equity International).

Does Evolution Preclude Teleology?
Noah, as always, has provided excellent commentary that tends to push a discussion toward clarity. I'll try to respond within the structure that he's laid out.
First, I am making a fact claim. My fact claim is this: The findings of the modern synthesis of evolutionary biology (MES) do not demonstrate that the universe is not unfolding according to a divine plan that privileges human beings. An informal specification of what I mean in my claim by "does not demonstrate" is not restricted to something like "does not demonstrate it because it's possible that everything we believe we observe through sense data is an illusion" or things of that ilk, but instead is closer to the sense of "does not make it obviously unreasonable to believe it".
Some claims I am not making include:
• There is compelling evidence of a divine plan that privileges human beings made available to us by the structure or result of evolution through natural selection (for convenience, "evolution").
• There are no other findings or observations external to the MES that render untenable a belief in a divine plan that privileges humans.
• Darwin's work has not undermined many beliefs that many people have held about their religious views and their place in the universe.
• Quantum mechanics (QM) demonstrates that there is irreducible uncertainty (i.e., "true randomness") in the physical universe.
Note that I am neither asserting nor disputing the truth any of these claims in the context of this argument, merely stating that neither my fact claim nor the reasoning by which I produce it depends on any of these statements.
Let's start with a simple observation. It seems kind of crazy (or at least to be a violation of common sense) for an omnipotent deity who desires some outcome to get there through a process that unfolds over time. If you're all-powerful, and you want the universe to look like X, why would you have eons of change to get there? Why wouldn't just create things the way you wanted them on the first day? In fact, any observable change of any kind creates this problem. In the case where a deity initiates or sustains a process of change for the purpose of achieving a desired end-state, this seems illogical: we should be in a world of complete stasis. I'll call this "the argument from change."
An omnipotent deity would therefore have to desire (again, assuming our rationality can comprehend an omnipotent being) that all changes that actually take place happen for reasons other than their causal effectiveness in creating some desired end-state. But many changes that we observe around us seem to be what we intuitively believe to be evil – the classic case is a tortured and suffering child. How could a God that comports with our idea of benevolence actively desire every evil act in the universe? As everybody knows, this is the problem of evil.
Note that both of these objections to a divine plan are independent of evolution. Both are objections that could be (and were) raised long before Charles Darwin was born. So, for us to say that the MES rules out a divine plan that privileges humans, we must assert that there is some incremental knowledge provided by the MES that rules out such a divine plan that was not available to us prior to Darwin. The argument that "it just seems crazy that your Flying Spaghetti Monster would act through such a haphazard process" may or may not be valid objection to a belief in a divine plan, but it doesn't require knowledge of evolution; it's just a special case of the argument from change. Further, the point that it seems hard to reconcile an omnipotent and benevolent deity that chooses to act through a plan that incorporates what seems to a normal person to be evil also doesn't require knowledge of evolution; we are all aware of many seemingly evil actions – that must be willed by any purported omnipotent deity – independent of any knowledge of evolution.
So what then is the unique contribution of the MES in this regard? I was confronting in my original post the frequently-made argument that the structure of the process of evolution is inherently undirected, or goalless, and therefore it can not be that this is a mechanism used to create any specific outcome such as humans, and therefore evolution makes belief in such a divine plan unreasonable. I did this by walking methodically through an example of a genetic algorithm (GA), and showing that the fundamental evolutionary operators of selection, crossover and mutation can comprise a goal-directed process.
The arguments that have been proposed by my various interlocutors for why this does not tell us much about evolution in nature are all variants of the idea that there are differences between a GA and evolution in nature that are relevant for the philosophical argument, and that these differences mean that evolution in nature is actually goalless. I'll subdivide these arguments into two sub-types: (1) evolution in nature is more complex than the GA example, and (2) the pseudorandom steps in the GA correspond to "truly random" events in nature.
I'll take the first sub-type first. All of these were addressed, at least at a high level of abstraction, in the original post, but I'll try to go into a little detail on each. One of these arguments is that the GA will tend to home in on a "local optimum" in the solution space and not make the kind of huge changes that we see over time in evolution. But this is demonstrably false. Consider the simple case of the mutation rate, which was set in my example to 1 mutation per 10,000 genes per generation. In a limit case, if we set the mutation rate to 10,000 mutations per 10,000 genes per generation, we would, in effect, just be picking genomes arbitrarily out of a hat, and would by definition never be trapped in a local optimum. More realistically, by varying mutation rate (and actually more importantly, crossover probabilities) a specific instantiation of a GA can be made more or less "greedy" – trading speed of convergence on a solution off against the probability of premature closure on a local optimum. There is a large body of research on this. Another of these arguments is that the fitness landscape in nature is not some pre-defined factory production rate, but a constantly moving target created by the interaction of all parts of nature. But what determines fitness for any particular genome at any particular moment in the GA is a module of code that runs a simulation of the factory to estimate output for various genomes. This module of code could be anything that establishes fitness. It can be arbitrarily complex, can be in part or in total determined by reference to the existing genomes, and can create a different fitness landscape in every generation. It still remains a deterministic set of code. Another of these arguments is the idea that there are multiple parallel lineages in natural evolution. But of course one key virtue of the structure of a GA is that, mostly because of crossover, it will tend to create exactly this effect, termed "implicit parallelism". As you watch a GA step through generations, you can see it developing clusters of genomes of particular types that represent, roughly, the examination of multiple high-fitness regions of the search space in parallel. I've yet to see a convincing example of a difference between my GA example and natural evolution that invalidates my argument.
The second sub-type of argument is much more interesting. The basis of it is the belief that if we accept QM, we must believe that many events in the physical universe are non-deterministic, i.e., "truly random". That is, that there is no amount of information about physical laws plus initial conditions that can ever allow us to predict them reliably. Therefore mutation rates and crossover probabilities, as well as various other physical processes that will determine the environment in which evolution will operate, are unknowable in advance, and therefore the path that evolution will take is truly unknowable.
One big complication to this argument is that, despite repeated assertions in public debates, there are alternative interpretations of QM. What is normally termed the "causal interpretation" is the side of the argument that disputes the inherently non-deterministic nature of QM: in simple terms, the idea that there are so-called hidden variables that we just don't yet know. So we need to consider two cases: deterministic and non-deterministic QM.
The case of deterministic QM is simple. As per the prior discussion, if the so-called "random events" in the evolutionary process are really pseudorandom, then while their complexity means that scientists appropriately proceed as if they are truly random, a being with sufficient knowledge of physical laws and initial conditions could predict them reliably, and therefore evolution can be consistent with a divine plan. If you dispute this by saying that this is what we mean in normal speech by "random", then the consistent application that principle would apply to all kinds of events, such as, for example coin flipping. So without any knowledge of evolution we would have to say that all kinds of physical processes have random elements, and therefore no unfolding of the universe could be completely predictable. But of course this means that the same argument against divine planning would apply without evolution, and therefore the MES is not what would make belief in a divine plan unreasonable.
The case of non-deterministic QM follows a parallel line of logic, with a twist. Imagine that have current science, absent any good theory of evolution or genetics. From the time of the Big Bang through today there would have to have been an enormous number of events that were "truly random". How can there be any kind of plan, never mind and kind of divine plan that privileges humans, unfolding in this case? How could something like a point-mass at the time of the Big Bang unfold into some pre-determined or desired structure that we have now, billions of years later. Note that we've said nothing about evolution here. That is, one could make the argument that QM makes belief in a divine plan untenable, but the MES does not add any incremental uncertainty. This is a specific point that I was very careful to make in the original post. If you think that there could be some kind inherent structure built into physical laws that sat hierarchically above the "truly random" events and caused them to cancel one another out around some underlying direction of in principle predictable change…well, since we've established that the process of evolution doesn't impart additional in principle unpredictability, then what is evolution but precisely an example of this?
So in sum, there are many arguments that point out contradictions between our view of logic plus observed reality on one hand, and any conception of a divine plan that privileges humans designed by a God that just about anybody would want to worship on the other. The argument from change and the problem of evil pre-date the MES, and would continue to exist if the theory of evolution is someday overturned by new scientific discoveries. The problem of how any kind of divine plan could operate in a non-deterministic universe also exists independently of any unique characteristics of the MES. We can't credit the MES with any of these arguments. The processes that define evolution don't provide any relevant incremental knowledge that makes such a belief in a divine plan less logically warranted.
I'll draw a bight line between everything up to this point in the post, which is a clarification of a fact claim that I am prepared to defend, and what follows, which is more speculative.
What I find interesting is that if one were to ask how could a divine plan ever be consistent with non-deterministic QM, the obvious way you could do this would be to have some kind inherent structure built into physical laws that sounds a lot like evolution. If one were to posit non-deterministic QM, then, the irony is that all else equal, the incremental effect on our beliefs of the discovery of the MES should actually be to make the idea of a divine plan more plausible rather than to make it less plausible. Note that I am not arguing that this is compelling evidence of design, or that we can read this into the evolutionary algorithm, or that this observation is in any way relevant to the practical execution of science, or that there is anything in this specific observation that has anything to do with privileging humans.
I do think that it is quite fair to say that this progress of science has demonstrated that numerous religious beliefs and just-so stories held to be true by many people are wrong. That is, in my view, the element of truth to Coyne's perspective. Again, ironically (and again speculatively) science has pushed careful consideration of the purported nature of God to describe something a lot like what Augustine and Aquinas put forward. They described God as acting through laws or processes. In about the year 400, Augustine described a view of Creation in which "seeds of potentiality" were established by God, which then unfolded through time in an incomprehensibly complicated set of processes. In the 13th century, Aquinas — working with the thought of Aristotle and Augustine — identified God with ultimate causes, while accepting naturalistic interpretations of secondary causes. Neither Augustine nor Aquinas was a proto-Darwinist: Augustine, for example, thought species were immutable. What is striking about both of them, however, is their insistence on understanding and incorporating the best available non-theological thinking into our religious views. It is hard for me to imagine either feeling theologically threatened by the MES. The Catholic Church has formally accepted it as consistent with that faith.
Jerry Coyne has argued that the MES makes "real religion" as actually practiced untenable. But if so, he's reading, for example, Augustine, Aquinas and Pope Benedict out of the Christian religion. That's a pretty idiosyncratic definition of Christianity. I guess Jerry Coyne wants religion to be, literally, more Catholic than the pope. But a theologian might be tempted to say that this progress of science hasn't threatened religious belief, but rather helped to perfect it

Hippity-Hoppity Easter's on its way! So, let's craft! Today we're going to dress up a store bought Easter basket and personalize a bunny. And guess what-- two of the embroidery designs I'm using are FREE!
This zig zag egg is from Lynnie Pinnie, and yes, it's free! I used the Curlz Appliqué font for the H and Curly Girl font for the rest of the name to pair with the egg.
The other side of the basket has this adorable chick from Beau Mitchell (yep, it's free, too!). I embroidered an H in Curlz font on top of the shell.
I was too much of a scaredy cat to embroider directly on the basket. It's a felt/foam basket I got at Walgreen's last Easter for Harlow's first basket. I embroidered the designs, trimmed them to the shape of the appliqué, and used Heat and Bond to iron them onto the basket.
Last year I saw pictures of bunnies with names embroidered on the ears. I had my embroidery machine, but had never used it by that point, so I knew it was a project I wanted to try when I got the hang of embroidering. I forgot about it until I saw people posting bunny pictures this year in an embroidery group on Facebook. This is a bunny Harlow got while I was pregnant, so I used the Quirky Girl font and gave it a try. While it isn't perfect, I think it turned out pretty cute and will be fun to use in Easter pictures.
What Easter projects are you going to try this year?

Having a bad strategy to execute: Even we execute at 100%, it can be useless if the strategy we are executing has holes in it. If our strategy uses an incorrect PF range, 3bets in bad spots, or double barrels versus wrong player types, our execution is going to get us hurt. Strategy is something that should be strong, hopefully in all areas. If your strategy is weak, go read some other COTWs, watch videos, etc.
Tilt: There was a solid COTW on tilt awhile ago, and you can also look at the COTW on handling stress, as both are related. Tilt is usually the most common ailment that causes players to execute poorly.
Execution Environment: The physical place where you execute, or play, can be vital to your success. If you play a location where there are factors that would increase the chances of tilt (noises, added stresses, annoyances, etc.), you could easily begin to execute worse and worse. Think about it. If at best you can execute at 85%, but where you play can effect your execution by 0-100, it can make for a bad place to play (especially if you have other options that would create less chance of executing poorly)
[EE]EV = 85 – X (where X can be 0-100)
Our goal is to get X as close to zero as possible. Having a "safe haven" where you can play poker, eliminate (or at least lessen) possibly tilters, and concentrate is imperative. Make sure you find or create a place like this to grind in.
Distractions: I know some people play while watching TV, movies, listening to music, chatting on Skype, etc. For some people this works for them (the added stimulation of their side-activity relieves boredom and doesn't allow them to play extra hands that would get them in trouble). For most people this is disastrous. While this is very personal, most players would be better suited to turn off the Skype, turn off the TV, and just focus on the task at hand.
Stress: We should always be monitoring our stress levels, before and during sessions. Stress forces our brain to process information differently, and usually not in the way we would best prefer at the tables. Make sure not to start sessions when your stress levels are high (when your best execution % is probably lowered right off the bat), and also monitor it throughout the session. If you begin to feel stressed/tilted at all, it might be time to take a break.
Discipline: Everything in execution boils down to discipline. If you know it is a bad 4bet spot but you still make it, you are executing poorly and losing money in the LR. Discipline is the cornerstone of everything in poker. Having the knowledge to do something, but not the discipline to follow through makes the knowledge near useless. We can improve in discipline with time and practice, but it is a vital skill and should always be worked on.
Repetition: I have a pre-session routine that I do before I play to get myself into the right mindset. This gives my brain a chance to get warmed up, prepared to play, and creates a relaxing intro to executing. For me, I just turn on a single song (that I will listen to on repeat for the entire session), look over my last few sessions and check some hands, and then turn off all my distractions while turning on all my poker stuff. Just the simple process reminds my brain that it is time to go to work, and eases me into playing.
Results-Orientation: We always want to do our best to not be results-oriented. There are plenty of times when we made a good shove and just so happened to run into the absolute toppest part of his C-Range. Just mark hands and review them later. Also, I usually suggest not checking the cashier/DB/etc for results during a session. Many times it can create winners tilt (wanting to book a win, "playing a rush", etc.) or classic tilt ("I need to get unstuck"). Again, eliminating anything that has probably -EV effects (especially if there are no +EV effects attached to that action) is a good idea.
Rules: I personally set rules for myself before my sessions. This allows me to work on my discipline, but also helps me stay within a range that I am comfortable with. For instance, one of my rules is "if more than 2 bluff 4bets fail, no more for the session." I also use rules like stoplosses (2.5BI/session, 4BI/day), no stacking off light versus fish, and taking an extra 2 seconds every time I get to the turn or river. These rules keep me focused and disciplined.
Talk Out Loud: I have been doing this for years, and suggest it often. I personally treat every sessions as though I were recording a video. I talk out my thought process while playing and have full discussions about situations. I do this for a few reasons. For one, it forces me to slow down a bit (giving my brain an extra partial second or so to process information). For another, it gives my brain an extra chance to catch mistakes. My brain processes information an extra time (the first when I see it, and again when my brain hears it), giving me an extra chance to catch mistakes or logic gaps. I also ask myself things like "am I feeling tilty? And if so, why?" If my answer is anything but "I am a lil mad because of something totally out of my control", I will usually get off the session. Assuming you can do this all without looking like a nutjob in front of anyone else in the room, I def suggest it =)
Monitor Everything: In having full dialogues while playing I am monitoring my stress and tilt levels. If they get too high, I simply get off my session and restart when I am calm again. There is no reason to play when you know your execution cap is lowered to the point where your WR might be negative, or break at best. If conditions change in your environment (your GF got pissy and is now yelling at you, the dog just peed on the floor, etc.) just monitor how much you think your execution is going to suffer and make a decision whether to continue the session or not.

Linda Buck of the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center. At Kirkland, WA-based Rosetta Inpharmatics where he worked from 1999 until the company was bought by Merck in 2001, the founding team included Nobel laureate Leland Hartwell.
To hear Benjamin tell it, Galenea's work with Otsuka might hinge on whether his firm can deliver at least one compound from the collaboration that the Japanese company decides is worthy of testing in humans. Otsuka has already extended the period of its original collaboration deal with Galenea twice based on the startup's achievement of certain goals, and the latest extension struck in late 2009 expires at the end of 2011.
For its part, Otsuka Pharmaceutical, which is Japan's largest privately owned drug company, has a major interest in the treatment of schizophrenia. The firm discovered a blockbuster drug for schizophrenia and other mood disorders called aripiprazole (Abilify), which Bristol-Myers Squibb markets in the U.S. (Interestingly, the company also makes a sports drink called "Pocari Sweat," which is wildly popular in Southeast Asia, Benjamin said.) Otsuka Holdings, the drug firm's parent company, says it generated $13.1 billion in revenue for its fiscal year ending in March 2010.
Otsuka's cash has enabled Galenea to develop cutting-edge technology for discovering potential drugs for diseases of the central nervous system, Benjamin says. For instance, the startup has developed a new way of rapidly screening molecules for ones that impact neuron-to-neuron communication—or synaptic transmission—to treat mental disorders. Recently, the firm won a $4.5 million grant from the National Institutes of Health to further develop the drug-discovery technology. Otsuka is already using the system for its own R&D operations.
With previous grant support from the NIH, the firm has also developed a system for finding patterns in brain activities and physical behaviors in mice to test the effectiveness of drugs for certain mental disorders. It's a leap ahead of the traditional method of watching how the drugs impact the physical behaviors alone. In fact, there's a lack of reliable mouse models of mental disorders, making it risky to say whether a drug that appears to work in mice will be effective in humans as well.
In the meantime, Galenea has been pursuing research of drugs that falls outside of its Otsuka deal. In October 2009, the startup bought a compound, which has potential to improve mental abilities in schizophrenia patients, in an auction of assets from the now defunct Lexington, MA-based Epix Pharmaceuticals. Epix, which wound down its operations in July 2009, had shown that the drug was safe in an initial human study. Now Galenea plans to meet with the FDA this fall to talk about starting a new Phase I clinical trial to get further data on the safety of the drug, Benjamin says.
Galenea has also licensed potential anti-obesity compounds from the Woburn, MA-based chemistry research outsourcing firm Organix. Within the next year, Benjamin says, the startup plans to find a partner to take over development of those compounds.
Back to the Otsuka collaboration, Benjamin says he will probably know by early next year whether the Japanese company decides to further develop one of the compounds from the startup. That will be an important milestone for this 46-person company, because it would be a strong statement from Otsuka that it believes it will see a big return on its $90 million investment in Galenea.

Great article! We love working with Otsuka as well!

This campaign accurately depicts HSAA/NUPGE members as professionals who not only bear skill and training but also compassion, humanity, kindness and a dignified strength.
Edmonton (01 Oct. 2015) — The Health Sciences Association of Alberta (HSAA/NUPGE) has always believed that our members display a wide and impressive array of skills and talents but also an unyielding passion for all that they do.
To echo that message in the most poignant way possible, we are proud to present our Caring Hands campaign that will not only enhance the public's knowledge about the breadth of HSAA/NUPGE members' areas of expertise but will also put a face to the hardworking hands. There are so many HSAA/NUPGE health-sciences experts in countless locations province wide and it is a daunting task, albeit an important one, to let both members and the public at large understand how vital and pervasive the impact of our members' expertise really is.
Caring hands are a symbol of skilled, healing, compassionate health care professionals
There isn't anything more symbolic of human care and caring than our hands. It is the human touch that evokes so much of what health-care professionals do through skilled hands, caring hands, healing hands, compassionate hands and trained hands. These represent the qualities we want to see in our health care professionals whether they are front-line members such as occupational therapists and addictions counselors or behind-the-scenes professionals such as pharmacy technicians.
"You wouldn't allow just anyone to have your life in their hands" was one of the lines used in the 2014 campaign. And, it is a wonderful jump-off point to highlight the aforementioned qualities of all HSAA/NUPGE members.
New campaign will spotlight individual health sciences experts in TV ads and online
But now the campaign goes further by members' story in an emotive fashion through spotlighting individual health sciences experts. This campaign accurately depicts HSAA/NUPGE members as professionals who not only bear skill and training but also compassion, humanity, kindness and a dignified strength.
This powerful message is being delivered to all corners of the province, and beyond, through broadcast television commercials, internet commercials delivered through YouTube as well as on the union's website and Facebook page. HSAA/NUPGE is also reinforcing the message by interacting with members and the public through Twitter and the union's new Instagram page. HSAA/NUPGE is proud to be providing a snapshot into the professional lives of a few of our members through documentary style videos available to watch on our Facebook page.
The National Union of Public and General Employees (NUPGE) is one of Canada's largest labour organizations with over 360,000 members. Our mission is to improve the lives of working families and to build a stronger Canada by ensuring our common wealth is used for the common good. NUPGE

People reached in 2019
A total of
people benefitted from our camp management work
We work in camps, in dispersed displacement settings, and within host communities in non-camp settings. We do not promote camps. Camps are not long-term or sustainable solutions – they are a last resort. For this reason, our camp management portfolio includes different approaches, such as assisting displaced people living with host communities. To carry out camp management activities, NRC must be mandated by the government or agency responsible for these settlements.
Our expertise in camp management
Camp management core functions include coordinating and monitoring assistance and protection, setting up and supporting governance and community participation mechanisms, managing and disseminating information, providing multisector feedback mechanisms, and maintaining infrastructure.
We facilitate two-way communication by strengthening the participation of community representatives in decision-making processes, including vulnerable individuals and groups, and developing complaints and feedback mechanisms. We facilitate camp set-ups and upgrades and, where applicable, the maintenance of communal infrastructure.
Our approach differs according to the needs of our beneficiaries, the type of settlement, the phase of the camp life cycle, the humanitarian response capacity, the humanitarian architecture and the actors on the ground.
Four thematic areas
Camp management
In some contexts, displaced people are gathered in formal camps (planned camps, collective centres, transit centres, reception centres). We can assume the role of camp manager if requested by the authorities or mandated agencies. We carry out core camp management functions in these settings.
Mobile Site Management (MSM)
Sometimes, displaced people are gathered in small, dispersed settlements (self-settled camps, rural self-settlements, unmanaged collective centres). These are often not recognised by authorities. In these situations, we adopt an MSM response. Core camp management functions are done through MSM teams. Mobile teams cover several settlements.
Urban Displacement and Outside of Camps (UDOC)
In contexts where displaced people live with host communities, particularly in urban environments, we provide some camp management core functions. We seek to strengthen, not replace, existing governance structures. UDOC programmes are defined by the adoption of an area-based programming approach.
Capacity building/support
When the responsibility for camp management services lies with another designated actor (national authorities, the UN, displaced populations, NGOs, civil society), we can provide operational support or capacity building.
NRC's camp management house
NRC's camp management house illustrates our holistic approach: assistance and protection underpinned by international law and participation.
Since 2005, NRC has been one of the leading agencies in camp management. Drawing on our expertise, we were one of the few to help develop the Camp Management Toolkit. The toolkit gives official guidelines on the setup and running of camps and settlements, both in emergencies and long-term situations.
Read more about the latest toolkit, released in 2015.

Before starting the application
Make sure that the area where the scratch or stone chip to be touched is clean and dry. Always wear gloves when applying. (Gloves are included in the touch up paint kit)
Step 1 – Paint Application
Shake the touch up paint quickly for approximately 1-2 minutes, the steel balls inside the bottle will help you to mix the paint thoroughly. Using a micro-brush, apply paint to the area with scratches or stone chips. (Firstly, begin by making small touches first to familiarize yourself with the application process.), Don't worry for application errors, by using blending solution, you can remove the paint from the retouched area and start over the application.
Step 2 – Blending Solution
Wait 4-5 minutes for the paint to dry after retouching, then pour the mixture solution in small quantities on POLYTEX cloth and clean with gentle pressure without pressing too much the overflowing paints from the touch-up area. Note that you can also remove the paint on the scratch while cleaning the overflowing paints on the deep and non-deep scratches. In the application videos of the touch up paint kit, you can see how deep and non-deep scratches work on stone chips.
Step 3 – Polish
Wait approximately 20 minutes after steps 1 and 2 are completed, pour in small quantities of polish onto the microfiber cloth to apply polish on the touch up paint area and apply it to the area you touch and around.
Large and Deep Chips
You can repeat the steps above to repair the deeper scratches.
You can remove the touch-up paint at any time using the blending solution. So, you have no possibility to make mistakes.
Because of the cold weather that will accelerate the drying process of paint, it will be difficult to touch up. It is recommended to apply in environments warmer than 0 degrees.

'Kony Freestyle' Lyrics - Mistah FAB
Share On Facebook
Here is Kony Freestyle Lyrics by Mistah FAB @
I know invisible children
I tell you about divisible children
I'm talking kids that die in my city
Rest in peace to how many 2-year olds
That get killed for violence in silence
But nobody could silence that
So while we worried about what's going on
In other countries, let's worry about where I live at
You know, in America, in Oakland
Where a little nigga's 13, already smoking
Weed or coke, it don't matter
Snow, gasoline, just to make their brain matter
And splatter, so while they're worried about Kony
The world media playing us like Sony
You say this going on, shit been going on for years
Been happening in many countries in Africa kid!
From Uganda to Rwanda to the Congo
Sierra Leone and many other places that I go
From Algeria to Liberia to Morocco
To Egypt, to every other city where the blocks glow
Gaddafi did it, everyone do it, that's what they do
It's just what it is, Idi Amin, let's take it too
I take you through some countries they don't take you through
Young dudes renegades, rebellions is killing ooh
My man told me the first man he killed was at 7
Was up in the war man, it's real
True story, namsayin? Ain't nothing wrong with Kony
But let's realize this media shit is phony
Invisible children put off living
Excuse me, I messed up.. they prey off sympathy
This shit is touching my heart
So I'll let you hear me mess up
I'll tell you this a freestyle, now let's dress up
Let's address the real facts, what they saying tho
Give me some money to help these kids while we praying tho
Thank God, it's a blessing, I appreciate you
A hundred percent of your donations going to the Nation
OK, so why y'all still doing feed the children commercials
With flies all over their face?
Little dudes skinny but still fat
Cause their ribs sticking out
It's nothing to eat, so imagine that
While this white man walking around with clothes
And he's feeling good, holding these babies on his lap
Like it's real hood!
Like they feel good
If you that hungry, if you that interested
Why don't you give up your money?
You filming commercials
They're out there, really in it hurt tho
This is what you talking about
So invisible children are money you making
Off donations at a non-profit organization
Help feed your organization
The salary you making is the money that you taking
While you saying that you giving people blessings
Blessing's vacant! These little kids is crazy
These little people and these renegades and rebellions is raping
These girls is growing up with AIDS
Now they putting needles and blades
Inside their vigaginal
Or vaginal, however it go
You know, imagine it tho!
And this ain't no imaginal flow
It's real life, it's what I'm telling you
So when these dudes rape em
They are cutting their dicks off, this shit is real
Serious talk! Y'all talking about what's going on
Kony ain't even in Uganda, he's gone!
He not there, I just want the natural resources and oil
So you can kill him and then have a reason to coil
So people won't say "Aww they killed that man!"
Propaganda blew up, the whole media expand
So it won't be crazy when you manufacture this assassination
So when they kill this man
This nation, other nations won't try to take a stand
And you can get away with it
Deploy, then employ new people from your land
Open up an American embassy and take over the whole land
Now more money is generated from oil
Now more kids are worried about the things that you coil
What you teaching, so the natural resources
That you trying to take away
You make away, hopefully one day
We can realize what they do to us
This money that we sending not us, they wanna Judas us
Christ, Buddhist us, Caesar, they don't even know
When these people so fool, media
Twitter, Facebook, they don't even know this nigga!
So now they tryna blow this nigga
But y'all gonna try to knock this man down
But I take a stand and talk about some real shit
You don't wanna address
So you save your breath
So I'mma save my breath
Cause when you the only one saying some real shit
They call you fake, and try to kill shit
It's problems and there's more problems
Drama and more drama
Same way they killed Osama, same way they wanna do Obama
The same way they gonna do you and your mama

A Little Dyesub at Work in the Morning
Summer 2016 Update
Wow! What a busy summer this year! Most of it was spent in Portland with my daughters and girlfriend, but we have all had a chance to get away and have a break, too. The girls went to both day camp all summer and had a week away at a YMCA camp in Gresham, OR. They start school on Monday! 2nd and 5th graders this year, wow!
My family came out to visit Portland over the 4th of July weekend and then they headed down to watch the 2016 Olympic Trials in Eugene! We had a great time going to the beach, sampling food cart fare, browsing books at Powell's, and enjoying the mild summer here. Bernadette and I took a trip to Vermont for her brother's wedding and got to spend some time at the Shore in New Jersey. We went over to Philly and had some Pat's Cheesesteaks (WIT WIZ!), walked around South Philly, and cooled down with some Water Ice.Unfortunately, there was also a loss in the family this summer: Toby, the family dog of 12 years, had to be put down due to laryngeal paralysis and issues with comfort/movement. We adopted him at 8 weeks from an accidental litter of two farm labrador retrievers. Great genes, his grandfather was a champion AKC hunter. He helped raise both my daughters and was always kind and protective with them. Toby was a people dog. He wanted to smell, nudge, and kiss everyone he met. He was a great dog and will be missed for years to come.
Onto some better news! I have been very active in the global mechanical keyboard community this summer. I've made a couple custom keyboards (below), had a very successful meet up of the keyboard club I run: Portland Keyboard Club (PDXKBC), and am running a global group buy for a custom keycap set, Barebones Stormtrooper. I'm very excited to bring this set to 20 countries!
Hoping you had a great summer, too!

A New Year and Into the Spring
It's been a very busy past few months for me as I transition into a new job and start a new relationship. Life is moving along and I'm enjoying watching my daughters grow. Skiing season is coming to an end and softball season is starting. I'll be posting progress pictures throughout the season.
My free time right now includes: Volunteering at the kids' school and sports, hanging with my girlfriend, DMing a D&D5e campaign, and running /r/kbcpdx! Busy, busy!
Hope all is well with you!
Take Care,
Summer is here! Time to Jam!
Having a great time this summer! My brother and I are both single and hanging around Portland, going swimming at Sauvie's Island, and just enjoying each other's company. My friends and I are all enjoying the sunshine and all the the city has to offer. This mix is for you all!
Turning a Corner
Wow. What a week! I've turned a corner in my professional and personal life, validating all the hard work I've been doing to progress my career advancement and debt annihilation. I've been having a really good night life as well around town, so if any of you are looking for some great nightclub music to dance or get grinded on to… Check the 5+ hours of trap shit.
Dedicated to the nightcrawlers and party people of Portland:
Next stop: Austin! Heading down to the land of TexMex, cowboys, and rockabilly for the Community Broadband Summit. I'll be meeting with executive sales and operations for all the major cable providers around the nation. What great exposure and an unprecedented opportunity. Time to get turnt up.
Spring Cleaning Time!
It's that time of year again! I've been neglecting my website for a while and decided that it's time to for a new look/direction. I've recently passed the 10 year mark in my career and have shifted some of my attention over the last year. For the past three months, I've been getting acclimated at my new job and am back working in Portland. For the first time in years, my home, work, and children's school are all within a 4 mile radius. It doesn't get much better than that.
My housing situation has changed recently, as I'm now living alone with my daughters. They both have their own rooms now and I just spent the last weekend building their furniture and decorating. Despite the turmoil of moving a roommate out, I'm very happy that my daughters are able to have their own space.
Spring is here in Portland, and I'm going through my life cleaning out the miscellany and crud. I'm single, working, parenting, and just making the best of my time. I hope to be more active on this site, so check back for updates about my gardening, hobbies, and work. Speaking of… I should probably get to it!
Enjoy yourselves!

Clean Eating Challenge: Day 0
After almost 6 months of waiting, my girlfriend and I decided to challenge ourselves to BuzzFeed's Clean Eating Challenge for the New Year. The gist of the challenge is to only eat cleansing and anti-inflamatory foods for two weeks. So, last night, after my little girls were asleep in bed, I snuck off to our local organic market and stocked up! An hour later and bags full of greens I've never purchased before, I was back at my place and ready to prep!
After unbagging, cleaning, and storing all the newly purchased foods, I am ready to start my clean eating for the next two weeks. No alcohol, no juices. Just what's on the menu. Tomorrow's menu: kale and banana smoothie, shaved asparagus salad, and kale, quinoa, chicken dinner. Whoa. What have I gotten into?
In the name of Slack and J.R. Dobbs:
Cleanup on Aisle FML
As I'm starting a life anew, I've decided to take down much of the content of my website and leave up just this incarnation. All the old photos, games, music, etc. will be removed. If you miss any of it, just give me a hollar, and I'm happy to share.
Starting fresh. Starting from scratch. Making life work where I can.

The standards, such as the MIL-STD-810E standard, have different requirements for different products.Certifications vary from country to country.IEC International Electrotechnical Commission3C certification CCEE is the meaning of China Electrician Certification, which is certified by the China Electrotechnical Commission.The difference between CCC power and CCEE power:1) CCC certification includes CCEE, CCIB (China Import and Export Quality Certification), EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility Certification), and CCEE does not have EMC (electromagnetic compatibility certification), so the radiation of CCC power supply is smaller than CCEE power supply.2) Since the CCC power supply contains a PFC circuit, the power factor is higher. In other words, the use of the CCC power supply is more energy efficient.3) The quality of the CCC power supply is better than the CCEE power supply.FCC: US Federal Communications CommissionUL (Underwriters Laboratories) is the most authoritative and non-profit civil safety testing institution in the United States.CSA is the Canadian Standards AssociationCE certification in the European Economic Area (European Union, European Free Trade Association member countries, except Switzerland) market sales of goods, the use of CE mark more and moreGS mark GS mark is a German safety certification markTUV logo TUV logo is a type certification mark for German parts and components1.

WRC2019 FIA World Rally
Championship Winner
7 minute read
Hyundai Motorsport secured its maiden title in the FIA World Rally Championship (WRC), finishing the 2019 season on top of the manufacturers' standings. The title was awarded to Hyundai Motorsport after 12 rounds with the final round at Coffs Harbour, Australia cancelled because of the devastating bushfires in the state of NSW.
Hyundai Motorsports' 2019 WRC Record in Numbers
En route to the
manufacturer's title
In total, Hyundai Motorsport amassed four victories during 2019 en route to the title - Tour de Corse, Rally Argentina, Rally Italia Sardegna and Rally de Espana - and 13 individual podium results.
Late drama at Corsica Linea
The first victory for Hyundai Motorsport came at the end of March when Thierry Neuville managed to grab first place at the final speed test due to Elfyn Evans' punctured tyre, while teammate Dani Sordo claimed fourth despite brake problems and Sebastien Leob finishing eighth. Hyundai Motorsport took an early season lead at 114 pts, 12 pts ahead of its nearest rival.
Consecutive Victories
A quick back-to-back win followed at the Xion Rally Argentina in April as Thierry Neuville stretch his series lead to 10 pts after 5 rounds. Team-mate Andreas Mikkelsen finished 48.4 sec after the Belgian and Dani Sordo in sixth place stretching Hyundai Motorsports' lead to 157 pts.
There have been so many highlights along the way; every victory has been important, but more than just the results, the team has grown so much over the six seasons. THIERRY NEUVILLE
Sordo's First Victory
Another late drama to the finish line allowed Dani Sordo to earned his first victory in a Hyundai i20 WRC and second WRC victory. An emotional end for Sordo as he earned a hard fought 13.7 sec victory.
A fight till the end
Thierry Neuville fought till the end, but even a third victory at the Rally de Espana was not enough to beat eventual winner Ott Tanak. But with Dani Sordo and Sebastian Loeb's third and fourth finish respectively, Hyundai Motorsport extended its manufacturers' lead to 18 pts.
After the unfortunate events in Australia, Hyundai Motorsport is crowned the FIA World Rally Championship 2019 Champions.
A squad of winners
Squad depth prove to be the winning formula for the Hyundai Shell Mobis World Rally Team this season with great results for all the drivers and co-drivers.
With three wins under their belt, Belgian pairing of Thierry Neuville and Nicolas Gilsoul finished second on the drivers' classification. Dani Sordo and Carlos del Barrio first victory at Sardegna was something to cheer about as well. Andreas Mikkelsen and Anders Jaeger-Amland took home 3 podium finishes, while Sebastien Loeb and Daniel Elena frequented the top-three in Chile.
Hyundai Motorsport has truly captured the spirit of Hyundai and our N high-performance brand. The successes they have enjoyed over many seasons have been incredible to watch, and the influence on Hyundai's road vehicles cannot be underestimated.
A young team with origins dating back to only 2012, debuting in 2014, and having to built a professional WRC outfit and car from scratch is now officially in the history books as the FIA World Rally Championship 2019 Champions.
2020 will be a season to look out for as the winner of this season's driver's championship is slated to join Hyundai Motorsport to form next season's strongest team.
Hyundai Motor Company send its thoughts to all those affected by the devastating bushfires in New South Wales, Australia.

The collection gets off on the right foot with Jars Of Clay's "Waiting For The World To Fall," a classic Jars song that brings back the melodies and alternative pop that was missing from their most recent hymns project, Redemption Songs. "Open Your Eyes" is standard fare from this year's GMA Awards "Male Vocalist Of The Year" Jeremy Camp, but Steven Curtis Chapman's "Remembering You" bears a folk, almost celtic sound that most would probably expect from a band like Jars Of Clay ten years ago. Chapman's effort is among the highlights, followed by Bethany Dillon's catchy pop/rock "Hero," and Delirious?' worshipful "Stronger." Rebecca St. James makes her return to her signature pop/rock sound with her offering "Lion." One of the most powerful songs on the project, "Lion" showcases evident growth in St. James as a singer. Probably the ugly duckling on the album, tobyMac's rap-flavored rocker "New World" may not fit among the other songs on the album, but is easily one of the best in the list. Nichole Nordeman continues to be a force to be reckoned with with her beautiful "I Will Believe," while David Crowder*Band's quirky "Turkish Delight" sounds remarkably reminiscent of Jamiroquai's "Canned Heat" (which is most recognizable for being featured in the film Napoleon Dynamite). Kutless and Chris Tomlin offer fair pop worship songs to round out the impressive cast of artists for this project.
Music Inspired By The Chronicles Of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe is by no means perfect but is certainly an impressive collection of songs and artists. Although the project is over 40 minutes in length, having selections from eleven artists seems rather slim. However, less is more in this case as some of the best that can be is included here. The artists' passion and appreciation for the classic C.S. Lewis tale is evident from song to song and is what helps make this collection stand out from the rest.- Review date: 9/24/05, written by John DiBiase

Larry Drew II Enjoys Journey of First Professional Season in Sioux Falls
Playing basketball has been a staple for Larry Drew II for the better part of 20 years. Considering the Sioux Falls Skyforce point guard is only 23 years old, a sizable chunk of time has spent learning and experiencing the ups and downs of what the game offers.
Even carrying the name Larry Drew raises expectations as the son of a former NBA player and current coach of the Milwaukee Bucks. Drew II is carving out his own path which has led him from high school in California to an NCAA Championship in North Carolina and back to UCLA to finish his college career. When asked about the similarities of the game at different levels, Drew relishes basketball's simplicity. "It's still one ball, two baskets and ten guys out there on the court competing against each other." As far as a difference from amateur to pro, Drew feels that many college players who want to play in the NBA go all out to get noticed. "Guys are trying to get to that next level. They play with a sense of urgency and try to assert themselves a little more. The mindset becomes you've got to go as hard as you can go to get looked at."
During his senior college season, Drew set the single season record for assists at UCLA and helped get the Bruins to the NCAA tournament. After graduation, difficulty ensued with a serious injury that prevented further chances to showcase his talents. "I was at the New Jersey combine and tore my quad. I was out for two months." That meant no individual workouts before the draft, no summer league and no exposure during a time when scouts are evaluating players. Fortunately, Drew had impressed the Miami Heat enough to earn a ticket to the 2013 preseason camp to get invaluable experience. "It's the defending World Champions. I was going to play in the summer league with Miami and I wanted to be part of that culture. You get to go down there and see guys like LeBron, D-Wade, Ray Allen and Chris Bosh. It's cool playing with guys who are the best at what they do. Still I always try to stay humble and not get too high or too low. I'm always trying to learn something new and taking in every experience."
Now that Drew is making a living by playing basketball, he is still learning and picking up tips where ever he can get them. For example, during his time in Miami, Drew said future Hall-of Famer Ray Allen was abundantly clear about treating the body properly. "He preaches the importance of maintaining your body and keeping your body healthy. 'Eat breakfast every day. Drink lots of water. Get your rest at night.' As many seasons as he's played in the league at that intensity, he's a guy who would know." Still despite the advice from the NBA sharpshooter, Drew has been hampered by a couple of leg injuries that sidelined him for two stretches that kept him out of nine games total. On the subject of production during those 15 games, the ledger shows 7.6 points, 6.9 assists, 2.5 rebounds, 1.5 steals in almost 31 minutes per game.
The NBA Development League is a place to groom basketball talent. Though as a professional, you also learn some life lessons. "A big thing honestly now is time management. Even though we're in the gym three to four hours a day, you still need to learn what to do in your off time." Plus getting that call to the NBA would make all the hours spent on the court, in rehab and traveling worth the journey. "It would mean the world. I've been playing organized basketball since I was three or four years old. I've always had a dream of getting into the NBA. My father being who he is, I got to see a lot of that growing up. That's something I want to be a part of."

The simple answer is that a virtual destructor is one that is declared with the virtual attribute.
The behavior of a virtual destructor is what is important. If you destroy an object through a pointer or reference to a base class, and the base-class destructor is not virtual, the derived-class destructors are not executed, and the destruction might not be complete.

This week has us exploring a few restaurants, and with 251 Lex being a newcomer to the HVRW family, it needed a definite try. The owners of 8 North Broadway in Nyack and now, on this side of the bridge, 273 Kitchen and 251 Lex, have a special formula for food and service. Although this restaurant is but one month old we were thrilled on both fronts.House Cured Salmon Gravlax Tsatziki, Red Onion, Capers was buttery and not overly salted. The cucumber detracted from the fish but the radishes were a nice accompaniment and a lovely plate.
Hi! Donna Monaco Olsen here, coordinator for the Taste of Westchester Continuing Education program for WCC to share with you from a delicious meal during HVRW 2015. Being a food writer in Westchester, I like to explore new places that are not on my typical radar. I am often asked to recommend places to dine by many of the attendees of my cooking classes. It is great to have a new recommendation that we will be sure to re-visit soon.
This restaurant occupies the old Flying Pig on Lexington and has a fantastic outside space that will be beautiful come warmer months. Owner Richard Mitchell was at the bar helping to make everyone happy in the small space as they were expecting a full house even on a weeknight. The upstairs is not up and running yet but will be soon and it will double the available tables. Johna (front of the house) and Owner and Chef Constantine Kalandranis are really putting forth some wonderful plates of the freshest ingredients. The menu is primarily fish and seafood and is changed daily. One of the things evident is the use of fresh and seasonal ingredients. In all dishes the vegetables played a star role as well as the proteins. Here is a sampling of the offerings that night.
"Today's Fresh Kneaded Pasta" offering luckily for us was Goat Cheese Gnudi Pasta, Celery Leaf, Shaved Brussels Sprouts, and Soft Garlic in a Brown Butter Sauce. They were lighter than air. The waiter explained how they minimally handle the potato dough, then gently wrap it around a tiny piece of goat cheese. It makes for a delicate and tangy bite (cut open to show off the creamy inside).The Raw Sliced Yellowfin Tuna, Shaved Radish, Scallions, Charred Green Tomato Vinaigrette was fresh and tasty. Lovely as a starter.The "Fish of the Moment" Hand selected from our NY Local Docks was a Grilled Mediterranean Branzino served with Today's Farm Vegetables. The fish was fresh tasting with a crisp skin covering a beautiful white fillet. The vegetables should not be overlooked as they were not just a side on the plate. They were beautifully prepared and a nice variety including broccoli, romenesco, kale and pickled cabbage.Grilled Octopus, Marinated Chickpeas, Farm Vegetables was prepared very well. It was dry and smokey, with a perfect texture served over marinated beans to compliment the octopus (shown here over a lovely bed of vegetables due to a pepper allergy). It was one of the best octopus preparations we have tried.The cast iron skillet added to the char and kept everything hot.Blooming Hill Farm Apple Cobbler tart with brandy and toasted coconut. Quince and Honey Cake with sour notes throughout. Although not the star of the show, the desserts were creative and utilized local farms seasonal ingredients.
Overall both the service and food at this newcomer was very good. This is one for your "short list" before the rest of Westchester finds out! The owners are hoping to do a cooking class for WCC in summer 2016 where I hope you will join us at several of Westchester's most exciting restaurants for a culinary adventure that will tantalize your taste buds. Each chef offers private cooking demonstration, followed by a tasting of the prepared items. The current Fall 2015 semester is going on now and has many great classes still available to take registrations, Check out the current offerings at WCC Continuing Ed, Taste of Westchester. Classes are only $15 plus a sampling fee. Sign up with a friend for one demonstration or a few by contacting WCC by phone at 606-6830×1.
