United Way of Oswego County extends a sincere thank you to the many volunteers and sponsors whose commitment to the United Way 2015 Golf Tournament again made the event an outstanding success.
This year's golf tournament, again featuring morning and afternoon flights, hosted 42 teams and raised more than $26,000. This money will be used to help fund the many human services programs, provided through our member agencies, that work to end hunger, help children and youth succeed and improve the overall health and well-being of our communities.
An event of this scope requires year round preparation. United Way acknowledges the excellence in planning and organization demonstrated by our Golf Committee. These dedicated individuals, including Chairperson John Nelson of Nelson Funeral Home, Dave Lloyd of Novelis, and Kim McPherson of Eastern Shore Associates, did an outstanding job in implementing their vision for this tournament. Their efforts, combined with the graciousness and support of the Oswego Country Club management and staff, ensured an enjoyable day for golfers and volunteers.
The United Way Golf Tournament would not have been possible if not for the support we received from our major sponsors, Exelon Generation, Entergy James A. FitzPatrick NPP, Novelis, National Grid, Planned Results, Inc., and Burritt Motors, as well as our beverage and food vendors Eagle Beverage, David Mirabito with MetLife, and Atom and Felicia Avery of the Beacon Hotel. It's also unmistakable that the day would not run as smoothly as it did if it wasn't for our volunteers that worked hard throughout the entire day.
Good people coming together for the benefit of others is the trademark of United Way and nowhere was that more evident than our 20th Annual Golf Tournament. Thank you for your continued community support of the United Way.

Q: Media breakpoints not working on wordpress I have a wordpress page using the bootstrap-four theme
I can't seem to get the media breakpoints to work. At the end of my custom stylesheet (style.css) I tried:
@include media-breakpoint-down(xs) {
   body {
     color: red;
   }
}

@media screen and (min-width: 576px) {
  body {
    color: red;
  }
}

@media screen (min-width: 576px) {
  body {
    color: red;
  }
}

@media (min-width: 576px) {
  body {
    color: red;
  }
}

I made sure that <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1"> is in the <head>...</head>
What else am I missing?

A: You are using the wrong @media mixin. Use @media only screen and (min-width : ---px)
Example mobile first:
https://jsfiddle.net/g8awz9g4/1/
Code:
/* Custom, iPhone Retina */
@media only screen and (min-width : 320px) {

Tokyo court gives celebrity doctor suspended sentence for fraud
By Tokyo Reporter Staff on July 12, 2016
Eriko Wakisaka
TOKYO (TR) – The Tokyo District Court on Tuesday handed down a suspended prison term to a 37-year-old celebrity doctor for her participation in a large health insurance fraud, reports Fuji News Network (July 12).
The court handed Eriko Wakisaka, a former director of a clinic in Meguro Ward, a three-year prison term, suspended for four years, for fabricating patient records to fraudulently collect 1.55 million yen in health insurance payments over a two-year period ending in 2014.
"By taking advantage of your position as a doctor you played a central role in fabricating medical records," the presiding judge said.
Wakisaka carried out the ruse as a part of a large fraud perpetrated in the Kanto area. Dental offices in Chiba Prefecture and a bone-setting clinic in Tokyo's Suginami Ward are among those that also allegedly faked patient records.
Wakisaka often appears on television variety programs to speak about health-related topics. During those appearances, the doctor has garnered a reputation for lavish spending, once boasting of having no savings in spite of an annual salary of 50 million yen and regularly running up bills of nine million yen during a night out.

Premier Gladys Berejiklian has told people in NSW to stay vigilant in her last daily morning briefing ahead of an incoming peak in COVID-19 cases and a "challenging" two months. There were 1262 new locally acquired COVID-19 cases and seven deaths, including a man in his 20s, recorded in NSW on Sunday. The premier said there had been some stabilisation of infection numbers in the local government areas of concern but the virus was "picking up pace" in certain suburbs. "We can't afford to let our guard down," Ms Berejiklian told reporters at the last press conference of its kind on Sunday. "We cannot afford to not keep doing what we've been doing because otherwise we will see too many cases when we open up at 70 per cent double dose and that isn't what we want to see." The daily 11am updates will from Monday be replaced by a video from NSW Health to communicate the new case numbers and concerns of the day. The seven deaths reported in the 24 hours to 8pm on Saturday include a man in his 20s from western Sydney and six people from south-western Sydney in their 40s, 50s, 70s and 80s. Chief Health Officer Kerry Chant said the man in his 20s was unvaccinated and had significant underlying health conditions. "However, I just want to make the point, that while you are likely to have more severe COVID if you are older and have underlying health conditions, even previously healthy people of all ages can get severe disease and die," Dr Chant said. When asked to respond to images of people flocking to beaches in Sydney's east over the weekend, Dr Chant said it caused her "some concern" but said the reality was outdoor environments were "probably the safest" if people were social distancing. "I would like to see that people are really respectful and they are adhering to the public health orders as they move about," she said. There are currently 1206 COVID-19 patients in NSW in hospital, with 220 in intensive care and 92 ventilated. By midnight on Friday 78.1 per cent of the over-16 population had received a first dose of a COVID-19 vaccine, and 45.6 per cent were fully vaccinated. Meanwhile state and federal opposition leaders have criticised the plan to scrap the daily live-streamed briefings weeks before the COVID-19 crisis is expected to peak in NSW. But Ms Berejiklian defended the government's decision and said she would still front the media when necessary whether it was seven or three days a week. "While there would be ample information provided on a daily basis, I will not necessarily be the one providing the information on a daily basis, and that is because, as I have said, I need a clear head," she said on Sunday. "The next two months will be the most challenging our state has seen perhaps ever. And I need to make sure we are not only making decisions for the next day but for the next week and next month." Elsewhere, thousands of NSW residents across the state's northeast and southwest enjoyed their second day of freedom in weeks as stay-at-home restrictions lifted on Saturday for regional centres of Coffs Harbour, Wagga Wagga and Albury. Masks are mandatory at indoor public venues, but hospitality, retail and sporting spots have all been cleared to reopen with restrictions while rules for indoor and outdoor gatherings have been relaxed with limits.

Challenging two months ahead: NSW premier

New South Wales Premier Gladys Berejiklian says people can't afford to let their guards down.
Premier Gladys Berejiklian has told people in NSW to stay vigilant in her last daily morning briefing ahead of an incoming peak in COVID-19 cases and a "challenging" two months.

College hockey fights battle for California players

EL SEGUNDO, Calif. – The battle for young California hockey players takes place at the Toyota Sports Center on a Thursday in late August.
Eric Nystrom, Rocco Grimaldi, a bevy of college coaches along with staff from College Hockey Inc. stand in a cordoned off area of the building and discuss the importance of the college path to several young onlookers.
Nystrom (University of Michigan) and Grimaldi (University of North Dakota) explain how college helped them become better people. Nystrom says, "It goes much further than hockey." Grimaldi said he met his fiancée in college and learned to do laundry there.
While there was nothing negative said about Major Junior hockey, the perils of this Canadian path are somewhat implied at this CCM College Hockey Showcase. College Hockey Inc., which was a major part of the camp for SoCal boys players born in 1999, 2000 and '01, says its goal is to "encourage elite young players to pursue a college hockey career."
"There's so much more that goes to (College)," Nystrom said. "You're not just playing for the hockey team. You're representing the entire student body and at the same time you're going to other sporting events. You're going to football games and cheering for your school. You get to represent so many alumni. You're representing so much more than yourself. Your school and your friends – and I think that dynamic gives you that different sense of pride."
And California is a flash point in this attempt to steer kids on the college path. The state had 25,288 registrations in 2013-14 according to USA Hockey's website.
Hockey playing kids in California know about most collegiate athletics, thanks to the state's sports happy culture. But there's no nearby Division-I college hockey team – except Arizona State, which is going to start play this year. Meanwhile the Western Hockey League has teams in Vancouver, Victoria, Seattle and Portland – spots on the same coast that would be enticing to a young hockey player.
[Yahoo Sports Fantasy Hockey: Sign up and join a league today!]
"The players out here have less personal exposure and awareness of college hockey," College Hockey Inc. Executive Director Mike Snee said. "We have to come out here and do what we're doing."
According to College Hockey Inc., in 2014-15 there were 50 Division I college hockey players from the state of California. That's up from 20 in 2002-03, though slightly down from 59 in 2012-13.
There are nine players in the WHL from the state of California for the upcoming season per the league.
While the numbers don't exactly match up, there is indeed competition between the leagues.
Collegiate hockey offers a lifestyle, an education and a chance at a career outside of hockey. The WHL offers pro-style play in hockey mad Canada and a tried and true path to professional hockey.
"Our point isn't to be anti-Western Hockey League. It's a pro college hockey message with a, 'Learn all you can about college hockey,'" Snee said. "Because unlike other sports like basketball, you're faced with a decision as to what path you want to take."
Arizona State is at the center of college hockey's ability to mine talent on the West Coast. Next season it's going to start playing Division-I and should have some built-in recruiting tools for all college hockey players, not just Californians. From the warm weather to the Pac-12 sports atmosphere it should provide one of the most unique environments in college hockey.
When we asked Buffalo Sabres forward Jack Eichel about ASU, he immediately defaulted to the um … attractiveness of the school's co-eds.
"There's a ton of talent here and it couldn't be better for us with our geographic location to California," ASU coach Greg Powers said. "It's our top recruiting priority is to try to get the best players out of this state (California)."
During the presentation, images of successful college hockey players who made the NHL jump flashed up on a screen at the front of the set up. There were shots of Jonathan Toews, Patrick Sharp, Eichel and Ryan McDonagh.
Californians in the NHL are pretty mixed when it comes to the WHL or collegiate path. Matt Nieto and Beau Bennett both went to college. Emerson Etem played in Medicine Hat. AHLer Jonathon Blum – the first Californian picked in the first-round of the NHL Draft – played with the Vancouver Giants.
Also, with Arizona's Auston Matthews – the presumptive No. 1 pick in the 2016 Draft – opting to play in Switzerland, there could be an entirely new competition spot for elite players out west.
But maybe with the spread of college hockey to Arizona State and possibly beyond, the collegiate hockey choice may seem more prominent. At least that was the hope at Toyota Center on that day.

Here is a link to a great article about slowing down in writing and how it sometimes takes illness to get us to pay attention (kind of like my lessons learned post - but with more reflection). And last week a wrote a piece about slowing down for my writing workshop... It's in the universe right now, apparently.

School district agrees to record settlement with ex-Wharton High linebacker
Sean McNamee, left, and family attorney Steve Yerrid, point to the scar on McNamee's stomach. The Hillsborough County School District agreed to a record settlement of $2 million with the former Wharton High linebacker.  [WILL VRAGOVIC | Times (2013)]
Kelly ParsonsFormer Times staffer
Published Oct. 28, 2015
TAMPA — More than two years after sustaining a head injury that put him in a coma for nine days and required two brain surgeries, former Wharton High School linebacker Sean McNamee stood outside the Hillsborough County School District building Tuesday, thankful for the end of a long legal process.
"Everybody would (be glad)," he said.
The School Board agreed to a $2 million settlement, the largest in district history, according to McNamee's attorney Steve Yerrid.
The School Board also agreed, starting in the fall of 2016, to provide an additional $1 million in coverage above the $300,000 already granted in cases of wrongful injury or death for all student-athletes in Hillsborough County.
"This young gentleman's medical bills are almost in that amount, so under that scenario, we could have gotten the additional money from the insurance company," Yerrid said. "Here, we're going to go through the claims bill process."
Sovereign immunity limits the amount that can be received in a lawsuit against a School Board to $300,000. McNamee will have to petition the state Legislature with a claims bill to receive the remaining $1.7 million, an effort Yerrid said the School Board will support as part of the agreement.
The size of the settlement is unusual by school district standards and well above the settlements paid after two students with disabilities died in 2012.
The district agreed to a series of payments estimated at more than $500,000 after Jennifer Caballero, a student with Down syndrome, drowned in a pond behind Rodgers Middle School. There was no lawsuit, and as with the McNamee case, the district agreed to take new safety measures.
In the case of Isabella Herrera, a student with physical disabilities who died after going into respiratory distress on a school bus, the family sued in federal court to avoid the monetary cap on actions taken against governmental institutions. The district fought back, saying the suit belonged in state court. Ultimately, the sides settled for $800,000.
In response to McNamee's injury, the School Board has agreed to implement "The McNamee Protocol." It will set uniform procedures to be followed in the event of a suspected head injury.
In October 2013, the school trainer called McNamee's mother to come pick him up, but EMS was not called. McNamee slipped out of the training room to drive, while dazed, the 4 miles home.
Yerrid said he's been in contact with the Florida High School Athletic Association about bringing the protocol to the other 66 counties in the state.
"For today at least, all the parents, all the students in our fine public school system, and, yes, certainly this School Board of Hillsborough County, ought to be encouraged by the great steps we've taken on everyone's behalf," Yerrid said, "not just to address what's happened to Sean, but also to address what has not happened to other students."

McNamee was injured when he went up for a pass and hit his head on a paint machine used to line the practice field. He was not wearing a helmet or pads because practice had not yet begun. A CT scan revealed swelling and bleeding in his brain and a fractured skull. Doctors instructed the McNamees to say goodbye to their son.
Nine days in a coma, two brain surgeries and a titanium plate in his skull later, McNamee survived. In September 2014, Yerrid filed a lawsuit against the School Board, claiming the coaching and training staffs should have further evaluated McNamee's injury and called for additional help.
McNamee, who is taking college classes in Tallahassee, said he still deals with headaches and epileptic seizures as a result of the injury. He is currently unable to have a driver's license.
While Yerrid hopes Hillsborough County doesn't forget McNamee's case and the lessons that can be learned from it, McNamee himself is trying to do just that.
"I'm just building myself up, day by day, just getting ahead in school trying to succeed," he said. "Make it the past."

Stream Team | Halt and Catch Fire: "FUD"
Your guide to drama set during the early era of personal computing in 1980s Texas—streaming now on Netflix.
Cameron struggles in getting the BIOS code written and ends up moving into the basement where she can more easily think. Joe joins her there and they take a "break." Joe wants her to write the BIOS code and then let her go immediately after. Later, Cardiff Electric gets raided by IBM, putting many of their workers out of a job. They also try to recruit Cameron and bring back Joe as well. Our three main characters end up in an argument in a parking lot, but reconcile and realize that they need each other.
While expertly acted and plotted, I feel my main issue with this episode was that it covered a lot of the same ground the pilot episode did. The season only has ten episodes, hopefully it doesn't feel rushed by the end. I have some gripes with the cinematography as well. There is an abundance of Dutch angles, in which the camera is tilted. I do not think these are necessary, as Dutch angles are usually done to show that we are in a bizarre or different place. Also, there was a significant amount of shaky cam towards the end. I felt like I was watching Law and Order, not a show set in the 80's.
Minor gripes aside, I enjoyed this episode, and I look forward to the plot (hopefully) moving along.

Aloin: What It Is & Why to Avoid It
Consuming Aloe Vera has been recognized as both a popular and safe way to reap the many benefits of this versatile plant. Over the centuries, Aloe Vera was used everywhere from the Americas to Egypt and Asia, gaining a reputation as a "plant of immortality" and "wand of the heavens". Sure, eating Aloe Vera is safe, but only so long as you eat the right part of the plant!
What is Aloin?
Aloin is a natural chemical found in the skin of the Aloe Vera plant that has laxative effects when orally consumed by humans. Not to be confused with Acemannan (a beneficial compound in Aloe Vera), aloin has long been a point of controversy, as some found it to be a useful as a stimulant-laxative to treat constipation by inducing bowel movements. However, the negative side effects of aloin far outweigh any benefits and even make consumption of the chemical potentially dangerous.
Aloin Side Effects:
Overstimulation of the bowels
Severe diarrhea
Dramatic weight loss
The good news is that aloin has been banned from commercial Aloe products for consumption for some time. In May 2002, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a ruling that aloin laxatives are no longer 'generally recognized as safe' and effective, meaning that aloin-containing products are no longer available in over-the-counter drug products in the United States.
How to Avoid Aloin
How can Aloe Vera be referred to as a superfood if it has been known to cause such harm to the intestinal tract? It may sound like an oversimplification but the answer is in knowing which part of the plant is safe to consume versus which part is not—that which contains aloin and that which does not. Aloe vera gel found in the center of the leaf is the nutrient rich part of the plant. The latex coating found on interior part of the leaf's rind is not. That latex coating is the part of the plant which contains aloin. The latex is a yellowish sap or juice in the layer below the outer skin, i.e., the inner rind of the plant's leaves.
Aloe Vera Preparation
Because of its negative side effects, the part of the Aloe Vera plant that contains aloin should not be consumed so you cannot just eat a raw Aloe leaf! Instead, it's the Aloe Vera gel within the center of the plant's leaves that fit for eating or drinking. The gel contains trace amounts or no aloin at all. In the case of Aloe vera, like many fruits and vegetables, the protective layer must be peeled away before accessing the nutritional substance found on the inside.
Fillet aloe leaves lengthwise into halves
Carefully slice off outer layer of skin with a sharp knife
Thoroughly rinse resulting inner gel
Consume inner gel immediately or refrigerate
Can Aloin be Used Safely?
Because aloin is a type of anthraquinone glycoside, a natural chemical, it has powerful laxative properties. Even though it's banned commercially for consumption, some people still ingest the latex juice to relieve constipation. Health professionals do not consider it a safe laxative. There are no 'safe' dosages in relieving constipation. Concentrations of aloin vary throughout the plant and results may be unpredictable when consuming even a single portion.
Get all the benefits of Aloe, without the dangerous aloin
Aloe Vera is a nutrient-dense plant, and it is increasingly being referred to by many as a superfood. That's mainly because of the overall health benefits it provides like boosting the immune system and aiding the digestive system. It also provides a source of antioxidants and healthy levels of vitamins A, C, D, E, B, B-1, B-2, B12, and folic acid which in total have their own unique benefits. The gel is loaded with minerals such as calcium, chromium, copper, iron, magnesium, manganese, potassium, sodium and zinc, which are necessary to support one's overall health. Add the 20 amino acids that aid in building muscle tissue, and the 7 key enzymes that assist in breaking down food and boost nutrient absorption, and it's no wonder that Aloe Vera is considered a superfood.

Have Our Female TV Characters Grown In 20 Years?
By Shannon Carlin
Over the last 20 years, television has seen a lot of female characters, some more memorable than others thanks to good, clever writing. But how much have these women really changed over time? Sure, 2015 is the most diverse in TV ever, but it's not hard to see that female characters of this year bear a striking resemblance to those that came before them. Comparing female characters in 2015 to 1995 and 2005, you'll see that there are some characteristics that still ring true for some of the most celebrated female characters that made their debut this year. While, in 1995, we were gifted the warrior princess Xena, this year we got Supergirl, a female superhero that isn't perfect, but is as strong as any of her male counterparts. Back in 2005, we earned many memorable girl-next door types like The Office's Pam Beesly and How I Met You Mother's Robin Scherbatsky, who made mistakes in their journey to find themselves. Now in 2015, we still have those kinds of women, but they're a bit more imperfect, and a whole lot more feminist.
The characters haven't changed too much, but their circumstances have, making them seem much more modern. Looking back at the female characters that made their mark in 1995 and 2005, it's clear there was a need for strong women on TV because there weren't enough women on TV in general. But, in 2014, the Huffington Post urged writers to stop creating only female characters that were too good to be true: too strong, too smart, too pure, too everything. In 2015, the writers seemed to have heard that plea. In fact, this year has given us a television world in which writers have created characters that remind us of the past, but also stand for the future.
Angela Chase, My So-Called Life, (1994-1995)
This ABC series may be long gone, but Angela Chase will never be forgotten. This angsty teenager got at what it was really like to be on the cusp of adulthood. She brooded over Jordan Catalano, but she also dealt with issues like alcoholism, homophobia, female friendship and sexual assault, along with actual schoolwork. Though we don't know where Angela ended up after high school, I can't help but feel like she's still figuring life out.
Her 2015 equivalent? Gretchen Cutler from You're The Worst doesn't just share Angela's red hair, she shares her intensity. The second season of the FXX comedy dealt with mental illness, showing a softer side of the usually punchy Gretchen, who reveals to her boyfriend Jimmy — who is somewhere in between being a Jordan Catalano and a Brian Krakow — that she suffers from clinical depression. The series took us inside Gretchen's head to show what she was dealing with and how she had managed to hide it from so many for so long.
Aeon Flux, Aeon Flux (1995)
This animated cartoon heroine, who returned to MTV in 1995 with 10 new episodes, was a skilled assassin who also happened to be very good at acrobatics. Her mission, that she did choose to accept, was to infiltrate the police state of Bregna, which was run by her nemesis/lover Trevor Goodchild. Their Facebook relationship status would definitely be "complicated."
Her 2015 equivalent? Jessica Jones on the Netflix series of the same name is a recovering super hero with a painful past who also wears a lot of black. The noir-tinged drama has Jessica, played by Krysten Ritter, rebuilding her life as a private investigator and taking on cases surrounding people with special powers. But, of course, starting over isn't that easy, thanks mostly to Kilgrave, a mysterious man from her past. Aeon Flux was called out for its graphic violence and sexuality, all things Jessica Jones also tackles. But, in 2015, this new series is being commended for the feminist way it has handled rape — by choosing not to actually show the act, but focus instead on its after-effects.
Xena, Xena Warrior Princess (1995)
This infamous warrior was on a quest seeking redemption for her past sins against the innocent, using her impressive fighting skills to help those who are unable to defend themselves. Along with her female sidekick, Gabrielle, she's all about pursuing the greater good, just like any notable hero.
Her 2015 equivalent? Supergirl herself, Kara Danvers (Melissa Benoit), is also fighting for the greater good, saving those who need her help. Like Xena, she gets a bit of help from her friends and new acquaintances like Jimmy Olsen. While Supergirl isn't seeking redemption, she is looking for respect — something female superheroes don't always get a lot of. It's also something the show touches on, which gives us the realized female superhero we've all been waiting for.
Pam Beesly, The Office (2005)
Like Friends' Rachel Green before her, Pam (Jenna Fischer) was the girl next door that you wanted to go get a cup of coffee with or maybe a beer at Poor Richard's, Scranton's most happening pub. She was the Dunder Mifflin employee you wanted to see strive for more, in both work and her choice of men. And, though she would do both of those things down the line, in 2005, she was still figuring things out.
Her 2015 equivalent? The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt's Kimmy Schmidt (Office alumnus Ellie Kemper) is sweet and kind. Though she may be a bit naive — hey, she has been in an underground bunker for the last 15 years! — I'm not too concerned about where she's headed. Heck, she already knows females are strong as hell, which is clearly the first step to getting her life together.
Robin Scherbatsky, How I Met Your Mother (2005)
Our favorite Canadian pop star (sorry Bieber) Robin Sparkles made us want to go to the mall, but Robin Scherbatsky made us want to go to New York. As she would show us, that's where she would find a job as a TV reporter, where she'd get her heartbroken, and where she'd find the best friends a girl could ever have. The gun-nut, hockey-loving Canuck could be a little crazy (in a good way), but she was always a great friend.
Her 2015 equivalent? Crazy Ex-Girlfriend's Rebecca Bunch, through which YouTube star Rachel Bloom created one of the best shows of 2015. Bloom created a character that crushes the stereotype of a woman who needs validation. No, Rebecca's not crazy; she's just a little neurotic. And who isn't? Like Robin, Rebecca has moved to a new place called West Covina, California and is trying to start a new. Though the show starts with Rebecca following a man across the country, this is all about her journey to discover herself. She makes new friends, gets into crazy antics and attempts to grow up. Sound familiar?
Nancy Botwin, Weeds (2005)
This dark comedy by Orange is the New Black scribe Jenji Kohan focuses on Nancy Botwin after the sudden death of her husband. Looking for a way to take care of her two sons, she turns to selling weed. While that doesn't seem too dangerous now (especially if you live in Colorado), back in 2005 this was still very taboo. In 2005, this was just a temporary solution, but, as time went on, Nancy certainly got herself involved in much worse crimes. However, in that first season, Nancy wasn't bad; she was just trying to be a good mom.
Her 2015 equivalent? Peggy Blumquist on Season 2 of Fargo is a woman in way over her head. After unknowingly getting into a murderous turf war, she goes on the run with her husband Ed. Sure, she's flawed, but she isn't a villain. She's just a woman who wasn't happy with her current situation. Like Nancy, she thought she was doing what was best for the ones she loved. Unfortunately, that didn't end up being the case.
Perhaps, what we've learned here is that TV history has a habit of repeating itself. But, in 2015, those repeats felt brand new, because of how they've built on the tropes that came before them.

My client, a leading multinational packaging company, is seeking a business development manager who can look after their existing customers in Myanmar, find new potential customers and keep an eye on the local market for new sales opportunities as the country's economy continues to grow and further open up.
Have experience doing some sort of B2B sales or business development.
Be fluent in English and Burmese while knowing Chinese dialects might be advantageous, but not necessary.
Work independently but be able to collaborate regionally with staff based in other countries.
Because this business development manager will work from the offices of a local distributor or partner plus report to and work closely with staff based in other Southeast Asian countries, its advantageous for candidates to have worked and/or studied abroad (e.g. in Singapore) interacting and working with other nationalities within the region.
Note: I regularly get inquiries for sales or business development reps for Myanmar as more companies seek to establish a presence there.

Q: How to call the datatable fill code without double in vb.net How to call the datatable fill code without double in vb.net?.
in the code below you might see I wrote back the fill datatable code if there is a solution without me writing it back in "GenerateReport()". Please Recommend.
Thanks
Private WithEvents dt As New DataTable
 Public Sub fillDataGridView1()
            dt = New DataTable
            Dim query As String = "SELECT NOD,ITM,CIA,DPR,QTY FROM RSD WHERE QTY > 0 AND PNM=@PNM"
            Using con As OleDbConnection = New OleDbConnection(GetConnectionString)
                Using cmd As OleDbCommand = New OleDbCommand(query, con)
                    cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@PNM", ComboBox1.SelectedValue)
                    Using da As New OleDbDataAdapter(cmd)
                        da.Fill(dt)
                        da.Dispose()
                        Dim totalColumn As New DataColumn()
                        totalColumn.DataType = System.Type.GetType("System.Double")
                        totalColumn.ColumnName = "Total"
                        totalColumn.Expression = "[CIA]*[QTY]*(1-[DPR]/100)"
                        dt.Columns.Add(totalColumn)
                        Me.grid.DataSource = dt
                        Me.grid.Refresh()
                    End Using
                End Using
            End Using
End Sub
Private Sub GenerateReport()
KtReport1.Clear()
'the code below actually already exists but I reuse it
dt = New DataTable
            Dim query As String = "SELECT NOD,ITM,CIA,DPR,QTY FROM RSD WHERE QTY > 0 AND PNM=@PNM"
            Using con As OleDbConnection = New OleDbConnection(GetConnectionString)
                Using cmd As OleDbCommand = New OleDbCommand(query, con)
                    cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@PNM", ComboBox1.SelectedValue)
                    Using da As New OleDbDataAdapter(cmd)
                        da.Fill(dt)
Dim dtCloned As DataTable = dt.Clone()
dtCloned.Columns("CIA").DataType = GetType(String)
For Each row As DataRow In dt.Rows
                            dtCloned.ImportRow(row)
                        Next row
KtReport1.AddDataTable(dtCloned)

A: The issue is that you are essentially duplicating code despite the fact that you have a variable setup to hold the filled DataTable at the Form level.
What I would suggest doing is creating a function that returns the filled DataTable, then at the top of your two existing methods do a null check against the Form level variable.
Take a look at this example:
Private _dt As DataTable

Private Function GetAndFillDataTable() As DataTable
    Dim dt As New DataTable()
    Dim query As String = "SELECT NOD,ITM,CIA,DPR,QTY FROM RSD WHERE QTY > 0 AND PNM=@PNM"
    Using con As OleDbConnection = New OleDbConnection(GetConnectionString)
        Using cmd As OleDbCommand = New OleDbCommand(query, con)
            cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@PNM", ComboBox1.SelectedValue)
            Using da As New OleDbDataAdapter(cmd)
                da.Fill(dt)
                da.Dispose()
                Dim totalColumn As New DataColumn()
                totalColumn.DataType = System.Type.GetType("System.Double")
                totalColumn.ColumnName = "Total"
                totalColumn.Expression = "[CIA]*[QTY]*(1-[DPR]/100)"
                dt.Columns.Add(totalColumn)
                Return dt
            End Using
        End Using
    End Using
End Function

Private Sub FillDataGridView1()
    If (_dt Is Nothing) Then
        _dt = GetAndFillDataTable()
    End If
    grid.DataSource = _dt
    grid.Refresh()
End Sub

Private Sub GenerateReport()
    If (_dt Is Nothing) Then
        _dt = GetAndFillDataTable()
    End If
    Dim dtCloned As DataTable = _dt.Clone()
    dtCloned.Columns("CIA").DataType = GetType(String)
    For Each row In _dt.Rows
        dtCloned.ImportRow(row)
    Next row
    KtReport1.AddDataTable(dtCloned)
End Sub


Resolved What Skills Will Be in Strong Demand for the Digital Enterprise?
It is important to have yourself prepared to participate well in the digital world where speed of upgrade is essential. The first step is to identify the top skills that organizations are likely to want. The second step would be to select the skills that best match your passion and abilities. The third step is to decide to be proactive in acquiring those skills. Since few organizations today are investing getting their people to a participating digital level, you are pretty much on your own. If you happen to work for an organization that invests in people, take full advantage of any education and training you can get. If you don't maybe it's time to change jobs. In any event, you are likely to have to aggressively pursue skills on your own. You are in charge of your own digital transformation!!
These skills revolve around creating mater plans and designing the measurements and operations to get to the desired outcomes. This usually means establishing policies, action plans and key performance indicators.
This involves skills related to oversight and development of new online products or services from inception to delivery. Using result data, manage improvements to enhance the digital product or service.
Designing compelling interactions for people is essential for digital success. Focusing on journeys and persona's while optimizing the touch points for both people and the organization is an essential suite of skills.
Applying the most useful analytics to big and fast data is essential to outflank competitors and intercept key trends. These "aha moments"allow for better decisions and actions that get to better outcomes.
Project management involves planning, executing, controlling and finishing the work of a team to achieve specific deliverables within time and quality specifications. Iterative and sandbox like methods are popular in digital efforts.
This involves new digital development models, languages and scripting languages to support rapid development and agile digital solutions. With the advent of cloud computing and agile infrastructure, the configuration and programming skills necessary to optimize operations will be in great demand.
The ability to manage the care and feeding of IT infrastructures, processes and applications will be in short supply. This is especially true in highly distributed organizations with local resources.
If you want to excel in the new digital age, you will need to develop a plan for yourself and assertively execute on a plan to become a great digital resource in your areas of interest and abilities. This means you search for resources online and consume as many videos, follow key blogs, link to great social resources and even read key digital books. The ball is in your court, so step up and strike it.
@Scott... very nice list of skills to acquire/have . .
Re skills that organizations need in order to transition to "digital" - I would list "digital architect" as #1.
I don't think this person should be in IT or report to IT (at least old IT) - it's more of a business analysis role (again, not the traditional "business analyst" role).
Success/failure depends on how good a job this person is at detailing ways and means of improving competitive advantage via digital, whether the corporation agrees to fund the initiative, and the extent to which the d.a. is able to get the initial and ongoing cooperation of IT (and all other departments impacted).
i.e. what about corporations inventing new products for which customers have yet to be identified? corporations that already do a good job at customer desires/needs but are not doing well at building and enhancing competitive advantage?
This is an easy question: business analysis. Research by Burning Glass Technologies who looked at 100 million job postings across over 40,000 sites. "Business analysis is the #1 skill desired by employers"
Sure. And no doubt McDonald's is always on the search for kitchen staff. But I'm not sure that means that fryolater operation skills are the ticket for 21st century employment.
I planned/plan to share a post that said exactly that. One can quibble of course (e. g. hiring intentions versus reality on the ground etc). But you're on to something. Because digital enterprise is still business.
And every "up till now" essential business skill is still an essential business skill. (Sure demand for some technical skill will fade.) But demand for BA skills is different. Because the demand for BA skills is driven by the evolving nature of digital enterprise (DE) itself.
By definition, DE requires the unprecedented manufacture of novel artefacts (and associated practices) of technology; these artefacts constitute the "digital" in enterprise.
BA (OK broadly defined and including industrial engineers), also by definition, encompasses exactly the skill set concerned with the specification of the distinguishing artefacts of the digital enterprise.
Cocktail party career advice hasn't been "plastics" for quite a while, but going forward "business analysis" might not be such a bad suggestion.
I believe the single most important skill will be the ability to identify the new business objectives that should accompany a digital transformation. Without those, you are just (to totally steal Jim Sinur's term) digital sugar coating.
I think this is where many digital transformation efforts are going awry. They are trying to solve the same problems for the same reasons and looking for different outcomes. With digital transformation, you are solving the same or similar problems for very different reasons because you are looking for different outcomes.
Rachel, although your identity is mysterious, your comments are right on the mark. The trick is always knowing what to do (read: how to make money, or effect change) with the technology.
In the digital era, the most important skills/traits will be ethics, persuasiveness (AKA salesmanship*), analytical problem solving, adaptivity, and caring for others.
Fun fact: those are the same skills that have always been the most important**.
**) Unless a family member has been abducted by terrorists, in which case there's a very particular set of skills that may come in handy.
Agree with @Karl. The most important role (not the most demanded yet) is a digital systems architect. Such an architect will be using the systems approach to transform an enterprise to be digital, i.e. life cycles of the enterprise's primary products and services will be built on the primacy of explicit, formal, computer-readable and computer-executable presentation of those products and services.
Such an architect will be able to architect systems with requested essential characteristics, e.g. security and privacy by design.
As we heard, business analyst is a very demanding role right now, however fanatics of this role made a marketing statement about this role that this role may offer solutions for clients' problems, define "design options", give "solution recommendation". This sound likes magic, but, actually, this role may offer one from many existing solutions, like a salesman helping us to buy clothes in an "prêt-à-porter" shop. So, business analysts are salesmen not engineers (sorry John).
I don't think that digital transformation is about buying already existing solutions.
"Salesmen", for sure, because '" define "design options", give "solution recommendation" " does not work.
One tip for finding a good D.A. is to look for someone who has learned how to learn.
Lewis Carroll (1865) had it all figured out . . . .
White Rabbit: "Where shall I begin, please your Majesty"
King: "Begin at the beginning, and go on till you come to the end: then stop"
And, what we have learned over time is when you get to the end, it's just another beginning.
LOL and +1 Walter and Alexander above! I suppose I should take umbrage at the characterization of sales, but there's truth in your comments. Perhaps though the BA role as salesperson will evolve, due to changes in technology and business. Please see my comments below.
As ever business knowledge in context of market place should be in leadership. Knowledge of how the digital delivery and connections are made is important which includes the adaptive need to react quickly to market changes which includes compliance. Agree that architecture of delivery important but working closely with business analyst skills to build the digital solution. I see delivery of hardware infrastructure etc can be outsourced under responsibility of the in house architect but the software must be in "ownership" of the business.
(1) SIDE COMMENT ON GENDER -- I had noticed on @Samarin's tweet (https://twitter.com/samarin/status/966092360068321281) an analogy between EA (Enterprise Architecture) and BA (Business Analysis) using doctors and nurses. I note a deeper aspect to this comparison, in terms of gender profiles. The proportion of females to males in business analysis is (like nursing) much higher than the proportion in software development. I offer this as observation only.
(2) ECONOMICS & SHIFT IN BA DEMAND CURVE -- Until recently, the demand for BAs has been dependent primarily on the demand for software development and customization. But most companies can't afford to do much custom software development. So the demand for BAs has been limited to organizations with software development shops. Now with ever more powerful software technologies (including BPM and BRM) and the pressure for business transformation, the demand curve for whatever it is that BAs do has "shifted to the right". In other words, there's more need for business analysis, where business analysis is figuring out how to construct required artefacts of digitalization.
Each management area breaks down into sub-specialities; the skill and knowledge demands of each domain are very demanding. And yet any business plan must be based on consideration across all areas. So obviously division of labour is required.
BAs have played an important role in the traditional enterprise knowledge stack, as the bridge between #1 (technology) and #3 (business). And if one actually had an EA (or systems architects, business architects or what have you) they would bridge #2 (systems theory) and #3 (business).
We are seeing an evolution now in the BA profession; for example, it's been suggested that BAs can be the primary interpreters of AI data streams.
(5) EVOLUTION TO GREATER BA ROLE -- This greater role for BAs reflects the possibility that BAs could bridge all three layers of the enterprise knowledge stack: understanding technology (#1), understanding systems or business theory (#2) and as experts in a given business domain (#3). The possibility of a BA bridging all three layers of the enterprise knowledge stack is in part made possible by on-going abstraction of software development, where one is now less concerned with bits and bytes and can work more often directly with technology, such as BPM, where business concepts are first-class citizens of that technology.
This is a new and larger role for BAs. Previously BAs may have had a role of "sales", interpreting business needs to IT. And #2 wasn't really systematically addressed by anyone, except in passing. This casual model of systems management is no longer a viable business management strategy for the age of transformation.
EAs -- when they are in place -- do big picture theory. And BAs, found more and more widely, will be responsible for bridging business and technology for business value creation -- not just as sales representation. BAs will perform their work while owning and exercising mastery of the tools of systems theory. And they will be responsible for the new understandings on which the technological artefacts of value creation and business transformation are built.

Q: Finding a limit or solving with a limit? I have a complicated equation that has a lot of terms with squareroots.  I am simplifying that complicated function with assumption of that x << y , so that later I can use that solution to solve it for x.  Here is how the equation looks like approximately (just for illustration purpose):
$ f(x)=\sqrt{y^2 - (x + z)^2} + x*cos(\phi)+x+z$
My manual answer is:
$f(x)=\sqrt{y^2 - z^2} + x*cos(\phi)+x+z$
I tried in Mathematica but it does not solves it.   I am doing this limit to make f(x) simpler so that Mathematica can solve it for f(x)=0.

Limit[f,x/y -> 0]

The limit does not work so I did not continue with solve. I also tried,

Solve[f==0 && x/y->0,x]

A: If you want to do this in a mathematically consistent manner you need to specify exactly what is the small parameter that you expand with. It seems from your question that you want to expand assuming the ratio $x/y$ is small. You can do that by defining ϵ=x/y and replacing that throughout your expression:
f  = Sqrt[y^2 - (x + z)^2] + x Cos[φ] + x + z
f2 = f/. x-> ϵ y

Then you can expand consistently to linear order in ϵ:
f3=Normal@Series[f2,{ϵ,0,1}]

and finally replace back to eliminate ϵ:
f4=Simplify[f3 /. ϵ -> x/y]

Note, however, that the result is different from your "manual" result, which is mathematically inconsistent.
Finally, you can solve using Solve[f4==0,x].

It seems that as we spend more time using mobile devices, the fraudsters are following us as a new RSA Security report shows a massive rise in mobile fraud over the last 3 years.
The latest quarterly report by fraud and risk intelligence experts at RSA Security shows that as the volume of mobile app transactions has risen by 200% since 2015, accordingly the growth rate for fraudulent transactions has increased to a massive 680%.
One of the key trends at the heart of the rise in mobile fraud is the apparent rise of the use of fake new accounts and 'burner / burn phones' to commit fraud.
A burner / burn phone is a mobile phone handset that is acquired for temporary use, is usually prepaid / without a contract in order to retain the user's anonymity, and can be discarded if necessary.
Alongside the burner phone, fraudsters are also known to use stolen identities to set up fake 'money mule' accounts, purely for the purpose of collecting the cash from their fraudulent activities.
The RSA report shows that new accounts and new devices have been used in this way in 32% of all the fraudulent transactions in the last quarter.
The report shows that phishing is still the top fraudulent activity accounting for 48% of all fraud attacks in Q1 of 2018.
Other popular frauds involve the use of Trojan malware to steal financial credentials. This method was used in one in four fraud attacks in Q1 2018.
Also, using details from compromised cards is still a very common activity among fraudsters, and the RSA researchers who compiled the report claim to have recovered more than 3.1 million unique compromised cards and card details (which included verification numbers) on offer from online sources in Q1.
It is believed that poor security in mobile apps is allowing many criminals to hijack mobile applications and siphon off credentials and funds from many unwitting users.
These figures show that our increasing use of mobile devices and apps has opened the door to even more channels for fraudsters. There is clearly a responsibility among mobile app developers and those commissioning mobile apps to deliver their services to ensure that security is built-in from the ground up. This should mean making sure that all source code is secure and known bug-free, all data exchanged over app should be encrypted, caution should be exercised when using third-party libraries for code, and only authorised APIs should be used. Also, developers should be building-in high levels of authentication, using tamper-detection technologies, using tokens instead of device identifiers to identify a session, using the best cryptography practices e.g. store keys in secure containers, and conducting regular, thorough testing.
As users of mobile devices and apps, we also need to pay attention to our own levels of security. For example, we can take precautions to stop ourselves from falling victim to mobile fraud by using mobile security and antivirus scan apps, only using trusted apps / trusted app sources, uninstalling old apps and turning off connections when not using them, locking our phones when not in use, using 2-factor authentication, and using a VPN rather than just the free Wi-Fi when out and about.

Pendulous Sedge
Photo ©2016–
Pendulous Sedge - Carex pendula (Carex maxima)
Family - Cyperaceae
Also known as - Drooping Sedge, Great Pendulous Sedge
Pendulous Sedge is a tall spreading and fast growing perennial plant which forms large dense tufts or clumps, growing to 1.8m (5.9ft) high in wet woodlands, scrub, hedges, meadows, stream and pond edges, preferring damp heavy clay soils. Native to the UK and Western Europe, it is also found in north–west Africa and parts of the Middle East. It is locally common in England and Wales, with a scattered distribution. It is an introduced species in New Zealand and the United States. A popular plant with gardeners because of its distinctive appearance and decorative properties, it has a tendency to self–sow and spread from our gardens to other areas.
Smooth culms are triangular in cross–section with rounded angles. Long glabrous leaves yellowish–green above and blue–green below are 8–20mm (0.3–0.8in) wide. Arching stems carry simple flowers typically from May to July on long drooping, catkin–like spikes. There are 1–2 male spikes 5–16cm (2–6in) at the top of the stem with usually four to five female spikes 5–26cm (2–10in) long below them. The flowers mature to a green–brown seed 3–5mm (0.1–0.2) long. Sometimes grown as a garden plant because of its distinctive appearance, it is an introduced weed to New Zealand and has begun to spread into the wild in the United States.

Top Kenosha Police, Prosecutor Under Increased Scrutiny in Wake of Jacob Blake, Protest Shootings: 'Some People...Aren't Worth Saving'
In the aftermath of the police shooting of Jacob Blake, all eyes are on top law enforcement in Kenosha, Wis., as organizers and civil liberties groups around the country question the culture of policing that permeates the city. Among the officials under renewed scrutiny is Kenosha County Sheriff David Beth, whose comments about a group of Black defendants not being "worth saving" have resurfaced.
The remarks were made just two years ago at a press conference and concerned a case where five young Black people were charged with stealing $5,000 worth of clothing. As they sped away from police, the alleged shoplifters struck a 16-year-old driver in his car.
No serious injuries were sustained in the incident, but Beth let loose his personal feelings about the suspects at a news conference shortly afterward.
From the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, emphasis mine:
"I'm to the point where I think society has to come to a threshold where there are some people that aren't worth saving," Beth said. "We need to build warehouses to put these people into it and lock them away for the rest of their lives. These five people could care less about that 16-year-old who just got his driver's license yesterday. They drove through a red light, they stole thousands of dollars worth of clothing, and they don't care."
"Let's put them in jail. Let's stop them from, truly, at least some of these males, going out and getting 10 other women pregnant and having small children. Let's put them away. At some point, we have to stop being politically correct. I don't care what race, I don't care how old they are. If there's a threshold that they cross. These people have to be warehoused, no recreational time in jails. We put them away for the rest of their lives so the rest of us can be better."
Beth claimed his comments had nothing to do with the race of the suspects, whose ages ranged from 16 to 23 years old, though the stereotypes and ideas he leaned on say otherwise. He suggested the Black boys and men he arrested would go on to impregnate "10 other women;" his desire to see them unable to bear children reeking of racist eugenics. And this doesn't even touch Beth's view of criminality—which he spoke about as one would, say, about a rat infestation. The people who commit crimes are to be disposed of, erased and forgotten to the extent they can be.
As the Kenosha News reported at the time, Beth quickly walked his comments back, saying he had simply let his emotions get the better of him.
The Kenosha chapter of the NAACP met with him afterward, with chapter president Veronica King saying she felt the experience was a "learning lesson" for the sheriff.
"I don't think it's a reflection of the entire Sheriff's Department," she said. "I think he'll have a much more prepared statement next time."
But not everyone agreed with King. Alderman Anthony Kennedy called Beth's apology the best "sorry/not sorry" he'd ever heard.
"You need to do better and you can do better," Kennedy told the Kenosha News. "I'm not willing to give him a pass."
Neither is the American Civil Liberties Union of Wisconsin, which called for Beth's resignation this week. The group—along with many other local activists and organizers—also accused sheriff's deputies of supporting armed militias at protests in Kenosha on Tuesday, writes the Washington Post. Seventeen-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse is accused of shooting and killing two protesters that night; as police responded to the sounds of gunshots, they walked past Rittenhouse, who was carrying a semiautomatic weapon. Witnesses at the scene told police he was the shooter.
Rittenhouse wasn't arrested until the next day.
The ACLU also called for the Kenosha Chief of Police Daniel Miskinis to resign. In a press conference about the protest shooting on Wednesday, Miskinis blamed victims of the shooting for being outside past curfew.
"Everybody involved was out after the curfew. I'm not going to make a great deal of it but the point is the curfew is in place to protect," said Miskinis. "Had the persons not been...in violation of that, perhaps the situation that unfolded would not have happened."
Sheskey and another police officer remain on administrative duty as the state's Department of Justice investigates the shooting; Kenosha District Attorney Michael Graveley will determine whether to charge the officers with a crime. Graveley is best known for his decision to charge a 17-year-old Black girl who killed her alleged sex trafficker in self-defense with murder, handing her an unfathomable $1 million bond. His office was investigating the accused child abuser, Andy Volar, at the time of his death but had not detained him, despite finding home videos of him sexually abusing underage girls—all of whom were Black.
Blake, meanwhile, is still receiving treatment at a Wauwatosa, Wis. hospital, where his family says he is currently shackled to his hospital bed, despite being partially paralyzed.
