Coach Lindland's Weekly Report: Winter Camp
By Timothy Hands
Five Point Move is proud to host US Greco Roman National Team Head Coach Matt Lindland every week for "Coach Lindland's Report." For fans and wrestlers looking for insights regarding the US Greco National Team, we ask Coach Lindland questions pertaining to recent events, training, and other topics surrounding the sport of Greco Roman. If you have any questions you'd like us to ask going forward, let us know via Facebook, Twitter, or through our Contact page.
This week is the opening of the 2017 Winter Greco Roman Camp at the Olympic Training Center. If you have been following along the last couple of Coach's Reports, you know that US National Team head coach Matt Lindland is introducing a new analogous theme centered around athletes "being in the boat and paddling", a concept near and dear to the coach's heart due to his passion for whitewater rafting. Of course, the craziness of forced par terre coming back and the new weight classes is also brought up. And to close it out, a fairly well-known but entertaining story that comes with an important lesson.
5PM: Camp opens this week. You have the new theme, which we've talked about. With the beginning of a camp like this one, do you introduce your ideas and objectives right off the bat, or do you work it all in gradually throughout the two weeks?
Coach Matt Lindland: I've been trying to share the message on tours as well as at the training center here, so the theme is getting out there. But yeah, we're going to have a sit-down presentation and I'm going to get up and talk about why all of the analogies make sense and the lessons I've learned throughout wrestling, the lessons I've learned racing whitewater, and how they really apply to each other. How we can use those analogies about getting the six men in the boat and paddling together in sync. I think that is really important for building the culture, so we're going to actually have a sit-down presentation to talk about that during the first week.
The second week, we are going over to Fort Carson and get in the pool at the Iron Horse Rec Center over there with the dive team. As you know, we've done some training with the Special Forces and helped them with their hand-to-hand combat. You know, I got to learn as much as they did that day, fortunately. I love martial arts training and when I get into real-life scenarios and I see what their needs are, how they interpret situations, and the way they look at things is completely different than how you would for a sport. So I got a chance to learn from them and share with them. When I told those guys I needed a pool, they were very helpful. Not only are they getting us a pool but also, the boats and the paddles. We're going to take what we talked about in more of a classroom lecture setting and go to the pool for three hours. We'll do a lot of team-building and exercises. Frankly, it's a lot of work (laughs). I've talked before about what you are willing to suffer for, and I'm willing suffer through the hard work of getting the boats pumped up and into the water, like I do with whitewater.
5PM: For the guys who train at other places away from the Olympic Training Center, wherever they are, as the overwatch of the program, how do you go about keeping athletes on book with the theme and goals of the camp?
ML: Well, I don't think that the concept is foreign to anybody. As a team, you have to work together. We're separate individual athletes, hence the one paddle per athlete analogy, but we're also separate clubs. But when we come together and we are Team USA, whether it's for this camp or a winter tour or to represent the United States at the Olympic Games or the World Championships, we are one team. And whoever gets in that boat has to be in-sync and paddle together. There are only six spots on the Olympic team. We can talk about eight spots this year, potentially ten spots next year, but we know for sure come 2020, there are only six seats in that boat. And you want to be in the red boat.
5PM: What are going to be other focuses of the camp outside of the indoctrination of the new theme and so forth?
ML: Besides releasing our theme, getting on the mat doing a lot of hard wrestling, and talking about our philosophy, we have a hockey game. I tried to roll this out a couple of years ago, my first year on staff, and I didn't let it be known that it was mandatory. They look at it and go, Hockey game? What's that about? And we had very little turn-out. So I am going to make it very clear that everything on the schedule is a mandatory event, our team-building as well as our hockey game. I've actually invited guys who used to play hockey with me. I was the Zamboni driver when I was a resident athlete here in Colorado Springs. After the last hockey game I'd open up the garage door and they'd come in and we'd get on the ice for a couple of hours. We'd get a really good workout and have a lot of fun, and I want this next generation of athletes to get an opportunity to have a great workout, get some team-bonding, have a lot of fun, and there'll probably be some blood on the ice, but that just goes with the game (laughs).
5PM: So, in essence, this is going to be like Slapshot, but without any actual hockey skill?
Coach Matt Lindland: That is exactly what it is going to be like, Slapshot without hockey skill. They are actually going to get on skates, and because not everyone comes to camp with hockey skates, we use rental skates, helmets, and broomsticks, the broom ball. Broom ball is typically played with sneakers, but we're going to wear skates.
5PM: How was this idea originally birthed?
ML: This is what we did in my generation. I rank the rink at night, I was the night manager. When I'd close it down and lock the doors, I'd let all the wrestlers in the back Zamboni door and we'd play hockey.
5PM: Yeah, but when you did this years ago, were people into it? Because I'd imagine if you never played hockey before or ice skated, it would seem rather daunting.
ML: Well you know what, I think that is kind of the point. You are out of your comfort zone. You're not a hockey player. How many things not only in sport, but in life, do you have to do that are uncomfortable? I mean, there are hard conversations that you have to have with athletes, or your boss, or whomever, but there are so many difficult things you're going to have to do and you have to overcome those. What better way to do it than by actually starting to do it and realizing it's fun and how if you didn't try, you would not have had the opportunity to experience something new? To have fun with your teammates and getting a great workout in.
5PM: We reported it, so it is out there, and that is the addition of a couple non-Olympic weights starting in 2018. Do you think that for the current climate of the sport, having ten weight classes in non-Olympic years, is a positive sign? People have been talking about wanting more weights, well, here they are.
ML: I think it's exciting for the sport. It is more opportunities for the guys to get on teams, more opportunities for guys to get the chance to compete at that level and potentially medal at the World Championships. It's exciting, for sure. I think it's exciting for our sport.
5PM: Okay and obviously, the second part of that would have to do with par terre being re-instituted in some way, shape, or form. I think we're all assuming it's going to be enforced just like it was most recently. Nevertheless, a lot of people were actually celebrating this news. What I'm wondering is that since there wasn't a lapse, as a coach, is this almost a non-issue? It doesn't seem that you'd have to restructure a curriculum all of the sudden.
ML: No, I think, even though there was no more forced par terre, you didn't abandon par terre wrestling. You could still take an athlete down and you want to be able to turn him and hopefully finish the match on top. And if you do get taken down, you have to re-set and get in the proper defensive mode, stop the guy on top, get back on your feet, and re-gain those points from when you got taken down. You know, I think there were guys who were excited because they feel like they are strong feet wrestlers. But I mean, the rules are going to be what they are and we have to compete under them and figure out a a strategy for when the rules actually come down from UWW.
I don't know when that is going to be. It could be as early as Schultz. Right now, I have no idea what set of rules we're working under because they have not officially been released. What we've been hearing is what went down at the UWW congress and that was essentially a bunch of things getting thrown around. One was the weight classes, the other was forced par terre, and making the weight classes the same for each style of wrestling. I never understood why freestyle was 74 (kilograms) and Greco was 75 and up and down the line. I would think you'd want to the sport to look as similar as possible except for the styles, you know? The same uniform, the same weight classes, the same procedures. I think that makes for a more unified sport and you get more crossover between the fans.
5PM: Speaking of fans, Greco's governance is based a lot on viewership. Do you think fans in general want to see par terre wrestling? I can tell you from 5PM's perspective, the response has been overall pretty positive from fans in terms of par terre's return.
Coach Matt Lindland: Well, I think the fans want to see exciting wrestling, period. The problem with the rules is that I don't think we allowed enough time for the no forced par terre. I think if we allowed those rules to mature and develop… You have to understand, you just took a bunch of guys who for the last four years had been wrestling with a set of rules and told them to stop blocking and waiting for a chance on top, essentially. And what you saw was a lot of the younger athletes going out there and scoring points, guys who had been wrestling at the Junior and Cadet levels and understand these rules and understand that you have to attack on your feet to score points.
So I think we didn't give the rule change enough time, first of all. Do I like par terre? Yes, I made a living out of par terre, it's how I won my matches and got my medals, by lifting guys. I lifted everyone in the Olympics except for my finals match (against Murat Kardanov). And then the next year, I had (Aleksandr) Menshikov in the semifinals and lifted him for five to get into the finals of the World Championships.
So yeah, I think it's exciting, but I think we can make this sport exciting. I think it is our job as athletes and coaches to not only win, but to make it an attractive sport for viewers and hopefully get us on television. I know that UWW is working on some big deals in Europe and potentially in Saudi Arabia and other places in the Middle East to show this content. They like that fighting culture, in the Middle East and Europe. It hasn't caught on as much in the United States, we have the UFC, boxing, and the NCAA's, but combat sports all over the world are huge, so I think we have to present our sport as best as we can with whatever is going to make our sport most exciting. I don't know if par terre isn't or is (exciting), but what's going on, in my opinion, is that we were seeing a lot of guys not even attempting to score on their feet and just waiting for the opportunity to get on top. So we didn't see exciting wrestling on our feet. The only thing exciting was the par terre (laughs). The current fans are like, Don't take THAT away from us! Does that make sense to you?
5PM: Absolutely, in fact yesterday a few people on social media basically said the same thing, that at least with par terre there was scoring.
ML: But that is just because of the rule-set. If you change the rules, we are going to have to force ourselves to score in other positions, which I think is my point. If there is no forced par terre, then we have to teach our athletes how to get to the body, how to headlock, how to arm throw, how to score points from open wrestling. But what we're seeing in Greco right now is a lot of blocking, a lot of head-down, and we are not seeing the chest-to-chest fighting that will produce the throws on our feet.
5PM: Whenever there is an event overseas or a tour, the general kind of question we get from fans is how are wrestlers selected for these trips. Stuff like, "How come this guy is going and not this guy?" Obviously, athlete availability plays a role, but would you care to shed some light into this process?
ML: I think that is a big point. Every coach and club coach has their own plan. If there is a tour going on and it interferes. For example, WCAP, they get a lot of their funding by winning nationally and getting their guys on teams, so they want to win just as much domestically as they do internationally. And it's a struggle, because of course, we want to get our best guys overseas but if their coach has a plan, then of course, we will respect that plan and take somebody else if we already have a tour scheduled. We've also had conflicts with scheduling of the Armed Forces Cup, because it goes over the Denmark tour this year. So a lot of it is availability of the athletes, the athletes who are healthy, and sometimes it is because you see potential in guys and you want to get them opportunities overseas. What a lot of people do not understand is that some trips are club-funded, some are self-funded, and some are funded by the National Team. And we don't release who is paying for the tours, so you might see some people on there and go, Why is that guy on this tour, he's not very high up. Well, maybe his club wants to give him a push or maybe his family has deep pockets. So there is a lot going on relative to what you are seeing in the lineups for these tours overseas.
5PM: And finally, a student of yours, Chael Sonnen, is fighting this weekend and it inspires this question. Chael has told a story about you essentially trying to fight Filiberto Azcuy in the parking lot following the Pan Ams. It's a funny story, but there is a lesson to be gleaned from this anecdote. Care to elaborate?
ML: Sure, I'd be happy to re-tell the story. Other students of mine love stories like this. I think the point is, at the end of the match I knocked out a couple of Azcuy's teeth. He won the match but at the end of the day, I felt like I won the fight. And I always had a philosophy where every time I stepped on the mat, I wanted that guy to have the worst experience of his life, win, lose, or draw. I wanted him to never want to wrestle me again. To have it in the back of his head.
So after I knocked his teeth out and we were leaving the arena, he brings a little Puerto Rican kid, maybe 13 or 14 years old, to translate for us. The kid is trying to explain to me that Azcuy is saying, "This is a wrestling match, it's not a boxing match. If you want to box, we can box." The kid is getting his point across to me and I said, "Oh, okay, I understand. Tell him we can fight now. We will box." The kid really didn't want to tell Azcuy this. I said, "No, please, explain to him that I'm comfortable fighting." Azcuy is like, "No, no, no, we're friends", and he gives me a hug. But he says, "You knocked my teeth out though, let's just wrestle." So I told him, "Well, that's how I wrestle."
I just wanted him to understand that next time we wrestle, I'm going to knock more teeth out and he'll be spitting more Chicklets. But it is a mentality that you have when you step on the mat and I see it from some of our guys and I don't see it from others. I try to encourage that and I try to develop that. You want to instill fear into your opponents that you can score, that you can punish them, that you will push their cardio… Every aspect of the game, you want them to say, "Oh shoot, I drew Matt. This is not the guy I wanted to draw first round." And I think that is a lesson to be learned for a lot of our young athletes.
5PM: How does a young athlete come to that though? Is this learned behavior or do some have it naturally inside of them?
Coach Matt Lindland: I don't think anybody arrives naturally at that, I think it has to be developed by doing hard things. You asked me a question earlier about why am I putting wrestlers on skates and getting them on the ice. Because it's a hard thing for them. It's a hard thing. It is uncomfortable for them. They don't necessarily want to do that but it's something they need to overcome. They need to do hard things. All of our lives, men should do hard things. We should do difficult, arduous tasks to develop the stamina to be mentally tough.

2018 Honda CR-Z: It Might Finally Be What We Wanted All Along
The two-seater trades weak hybrid power for a potent turbo.
Peter Lyon
As of this writing, Honda is rapidly approaching its Formula 1 comeback as the power behind McLaren at the Australian Grand Prix, and the brand is also busy readying two of Japan's most anticipated sports cars, the new NSX and the 2016 Civic Type R. Now comes news from inside Honda's R&D center in Tochigi that the unloved CR-Z hybrid sports coupe will get a new lease on life in the form of an all-new, more performance-oriented model in three years.
Honda's American arm has been pleading for a gutsy, attractive, and reasonably priced coupe to bolster its brand image, and a source with close ties to the Japanese mothership says the next CR-Z will be the answer. "Remember the CR-Z? It's due to make a big comeback in 2017," we're told.
"The two reasons that forced Honda to phase it out [in Europe and Australia], namely its weak street cred and lack of performance thanks to its ho-hum hybrid power unit, have been addressed. The new coupe will be a force to reckon with," insists our source.
The original model was based on a modified version of the Fit platform, but unlike the Fit, with its centrally located fuel tank, the CR-Z's tank was repositioned at the rear. To keep costs down, the new CR-Z's platform will be borrowed from the next-generation Civic, but with four inches chopped from the wheelbase.
Top: 2018 Honda CR-Z (artist's rendering). Bottom: 2015 Honda CR-Z.
Expected to be marginally bigger than the current CR-Z, the new model will borrow design cues from the new NSX and the Civic Type R. Under the hood will be a detuned version of the Type R's turbocharged, 2.0-liter VTEC four-cylinder pumping out more than 280 horsepower. In fact, it looks as if the CR-Z will be positioned and marketed as a high-performance coupe version of the next-generation U.S. Civic, which means it may be called the Civic CR-Z.
While the U.S. version will be fitted with the 2.0-liter engine, Honda is planning to revisit the hybrid for the Japanese domestic market; that edition will employ a turbocharged 1.5-liter hybrid i-DCD powertrain generating upwards of 200 horsepower and incorporating an eight-speed automatic transmission.
While it's still some way out, we understand a CR-Z prototype or concept car may surface at the 2017 Detroit show in advance of an on-sale date sometime in early 2018.

Sideways on a Scooter, Bottom of the 33rd, Bad Dog: Reviews
This week: Miranda Kennedy finds surprises in India, a dog saves its owner from alcoholism, the American heiresses who took the British aristocracy by storm, a sexy Cold War espionage thriller, and Dan Barry recounts the longest game of baseball.
Sideways on a Scooter: Life and Love in IndiaBy Miranda Kennedy
NPR reporter Miranda Kennedy moves from New York City to India and finds the country is not quite as she imagined.
When Miranda Kennedy decided to trade in her chaotic life as a reporter in New York City for the frenetic excitement of a rapidly developing country, she moved to India expecting a world of promise and enlightenment. But during the five years she spent in the buzzing city of New Delhi, Kennedy discovered that the progressive country she imagined is behind the times in many ways. While becoming close with six different Indian women, she learns that, though the country's economy is growing at an exponential rate, many of its social and cultural norms have not changed in centuries. Kennedy chronicles her love affairs, hopes, disappointments, and friendships with wit and deft insight. Sideways on a Scooter is as much a sharp social commentary as it is a compelling, humorous travel memoir.
Bad Dog (A Love Story) By Martin Kihn
In this bittersweet memoir, Martin Kihn struggles to tame his alcohol addiction and his terribly behaved but nonetheless adorable dog.
Many researchers have debated that owning a dog can improve one's health, and Martin Kihn could certainly make a case for their argument. Marty was in a drunken haze when his wife Gloria announced she was adopting a Bernese Mountain Dog. But as the irresistible puppy started growing up and getting unruly, Marty's alcoholism spiraled out of control, and his wife moved out. In a desperate attempt to save their marriage and pull his life together, Marty enrolled in Alcoholics Anonymous and the American Kennel Club's rigorous dog-training program. Tirelessly teaching Hola to sit and stay helped Marty sober up, and together they passed the program's Canine Good Citizen test. Walter Kirn, author of Up in the Air, hailed Bad Dog as "the most touching, original buddy story I've come across in ages."
Sisters of FortuneBy Jehanne Wake
Wake's biography of the Caton sisters—America's first heiresses—is an extraordinary tale of four wealthy, clever women who were ahead of their time.
Born into a wealthy Maryland family at the turn of the 19th century and brought up by their tobacco tycoon grandfather, the four Caton sisters were destined for a life of wealth and prominence. Jehanne Wake follows the three elder American heiresses—Bess, Louisa, and Emily—as they leave their youngest sister Marianne behind for the time-honored tradition of refilling the fortunes and bloodlines of the British aristocracy. Based on an unpublished collection of letters, Wake's Sisters of Fortune is a groundbreaking, feminist biography that demonstrates how the Caton sisters capitalized on their fortune, spinning it into political and social influence on both sides of the Atlantic. The Sunday Times said, "The story of the Caton sisters sounds like the plot of an Edwardian novel by Henry James or Edith Wharton… remarkable… fascinating… a rare pleasure."
The Russian Affair By Michael Wallner
A thrilling plunge into a dangerous dance of love and espionage at the height of the Cold War.
Michael Wallner, author of the international sensation April in Paris, ventures to a new country in this tale of a dangerous romance in Soviet Russia in The Russian Affair. Anna Viktorovna meets Soviet official Alexey Bulyagkov while her husband is on active duty with the army, and she begins an affair with him. When the KGB forces Anna to spy on Alexey, who is suspected of disloyalty to the state, she reluctantly agrees. But Anna is not the only one engaged in double-crossing. Wallner brings the 1970s Soviet Union to life in this suspenseful tale of love and espionage during the Cold War.
Bottom of the 33rd by Dan Barry
The story of the longest game in baseball history.
Journalist Dan Barry takes us inside the longest baseball game in history. It started at dusk on April 18, 1981, Holy Saturday, and continued through eight hours and 33 innings. This legendary minor-league game, played between the Pawtucket Red Sox and the Rochester Red Wings, and the lives and dreams of the participants involved is brought lyrically to life. From the team owner hoping to fix a decrepit stadium to the father and son in the stands who refused to leave their seats in the bleachers for all eight hours, to the first baseman's wife who traveled with him season after season, hoping he would make it to the majors—Barry weaves a vivid portrait of an unending game and the people whose hopes, dreams, and dedication kept the game going through the night.

Work from the early twentieth century Swedish feminist writer who wrote on many subjects in the fields of family life, ethics and education.
Goethe showed long ago in his Werther a clear understanding of the significance of individualistic and psychological training, an appreciation which will mark the century of the child. In this work he shows how the future power of will lies hidden in the characteristics of the child, and how along with every fault of the child an uncorrupted germ capable of producing good is enclosed. "Always," he says, "I repeat the golden words of the teacher of mankind, 'if ye do not become as one of these,' and now, good friend, those who are our equals, whom we should look upon as our models, we treat as subjects; they should have no will of their own; do we have none? Where is our prerogative? Does it consist in the fact that we are older and more experienced? Good God of Heaven! Thou seest old and young children, nothing else. And in whom Thou hast more joy, Thy Son announced ages ago. But people believe in Him and do not hear Him - that, too, is an old trouble, and they model their children after themselves." The same criticism might be applied to our present educators, who constantly have on their tongues such words as evolution, indivi-duality, and natural tendencies, but do not heed the new commandments in which they say they believe. They continue to educate as if they believed still in the natural depravity of man, in original sin, which may be bridled, tamed, suppressed, but not changed.


It's a couple of years away and it will only be one SUV model at first, but shifting production of Lincolns to China for that market is the next logical step for Ford's luxury brand.
China has been a cornerstone of the bullish investment thesis for Ford Motor Co. (NYSE:F), as the world's largest vehicle market offers the automaker a potential second pillar of revenue and profits. Another cornerstone of that bull thesis is that Ford's luxury brands could finally rebound, boosting average transaction prices as well as margins. Those two ideas have converged with the recent news that Ford will finally begin producing a Lincoln SUV in China in 2019. That's a bigger deal than many might think -- here's why.
The Lincoln brand's revival in North America has been painfully slow, but for the first time in at least two decades, its U.S. sales have moved higher for three consecutive years. Part of the drag on that domestic growth has been its brand identity -- Lincoln's cars are perceived as being, essentially, slightly fancier Fords, a rep that has turned some U.S. consumers away from the luxury lineup.

What Ford and Lincoln love about China is that the marque has a clean slate there -- and plenty of potential. Surveys have shown that the brand carries as much clout as Audi in China. Lincoln tallied more than 32,500 sales there last year, almost a 180% gain compared to 2015, which made it China's fastest-growing luxury brand. With Lincoln's momentum accelerating, and the company setting its sights on catching General Motors' Cadillac -- which outsells Lincoln more than three to one in China -- Ford has determined it's time to produce the vehicles within the country to cut costs and boost margins.
Here's the kicker, though, that many investors forget: This move will enable Ford to avoid a 25% tariff in customs taxes imposed on imported vehicles. If all else remains equal, that tariff cost will float down to Ford's bottom line, assuming Lincoln ends up producing all of its vehicles in China in the future -- at first, it's just going to be one unnamed SUV. Or, it will allow Ford to drop the prices of Lincolns without sacrificing margin, making them more competitive and boosting sales.
"Makers of entry-level luxury cars have to localize production, otherwise they couldn't compete with rivals that have done so," Yale Zhang, managing director at researcher Autoforesight Shanghai Co., told Bloomberg. "It is only natural for Lincoln to start production in China after several years of stable growth."
As an example of how much difference the tariff can make, consider that the Navigator SUV sells for $143,000 in China, nearly twice its cost in the U.S. While Ford currently plans to continue importing other vehicles, that will probably change in the years ahead. There are too many examples demonstrating that producing in China for that market is a smart move. One is Nissan, which saw sales of its Infiniti brand hit a record there in 2016, only two years after it began production in China. Ford's crosstown rival, General Motors, has been producing Cadillacs in China since 2006; it topped 100,000 units sold there for the first time last year.
Ultimately, while production of Ford's as-yet-unnamed SUV won't start until 2019, and it still plans to import some Lincolns into China, this is the first step in a transition that could drastically reduce its costs, and give Lincoln the flexibility to drop its prices or inflate Ford's bottom line. For investors, that's all you can ask for.


Looking for a new job is a journey that can be full of twists and turns, but there's a lot you can do to make your search more effective. Through our own research, we've found professionals are changing jobs more than ever - especially among younger generations - and they're often making career pivots or looking for more flexibility.
Today we're introducing some changes to LinkedIn Jobs to help job-seekers find the job that's right for them - a new search experience, remote jobs search, and updates to LinkedIn Salary search.
With the new LinkedIn Jobs search experience, you can scroll through jobs details, save the job that interests you, and see all the most important information - like company size, how many applicants there are, and who in your network can help - right at the top of the page, quickly giving you the context you need to decide if a job is the right fit for you.
From our own research, we know most of you value flexible schedules and work/life balance, and often this means working remotely.

Perrigo Enters Generic Rx Market

Perrigo Entering Generic Rx Market
Perrigo Vaults Into Rx Generics
Perrigo Bentley To Develop Generics
ALLEGAN — Perrigo Co. signed a definitive agreement Monday for purchase of a Tel Aviv-based developer and manufacturer of specialized generic pharmaceuticals, giving it the means to fully launch into the generic prescription market.
With its purchase of Agis Industries Ltd. for $818 million, Perrigo expects to create "a leading diversified health-care company" and build a portfolio of generic prescription drugs as a strategy for future growth.
Agis, the second largest pharmaceutical company in Israel, develops, manufactures and markets pharmaceuticals, active pharmaceutical ingredients and dermatological products. It specializes in both over-the-counter and generic prescription topical drugs. The company has manufacturing operations in Israel, the United States and Germany and sells its products in 26 countries around the world. Agis had net sales of $376 million in U.S. dollars and net income of $31.3 million in U.S. dollars for fiscal 2003.
Members of both boards of directors unanimously approved the agreement, which would give Agis shareholders 0.8011 Perrigo shares and $14.93 in cash for each common share of Agis stock, which will total about 21.9 million shares of Perrigo stock and $409 million in cash.
The transaction represents an offer of $29.87 per Agis share — an offer 21.4 percent higher than Agis' closing price per share on Nov. 14.
The deal would give Agis shareholders ownership of 23 percent of the combined company when the transaction closes and Perrigo shareholders would own the remaining 77 percent.
The combined company will retain the Perrigo name, remain headquartered in Allegan, and will have nearly 6,000 employees across operations in the United States, Israel, Europe and Mexico, said David Gibbons, Perrigo chairman, president and CEO.
The new company's stock will be listed both on Nasdaq and in Tel Aviv and its board of directors will be expanded to 11 seats. Agis' current chairman, Mori Arkin, will serve as vice chairman of Perrigo's board and will have the right to nominate up to two directors.
The transaction is subject to shareholder approval by both companies, as well as the customary regulatory approval. Gibbons said he expects the transaction to close during the second quarter of 2005.
Arkin, who owns 45.7 percent of Agis shares, has agreed to vote his shares in favor of the $818 million deal, according to Perrigo. Arkin's late father founded the business in 1961.
Gibbons said it's hard to imagine "a more complementary combination" of companies in the industry, a combination he referred to as "unique and powerful." He said the merger brings Perrigo talent, technology and "exciting new growth opportunities," and combines the best of consumer health care with the best of pharmaceuticals.
"This transaction joins Perrigo's leadership in store-brand OTC (over-the-counter) pharmaceuticals and nutritional products and our outstanding customer relationships and distribution network with Agis' strong position in topical generic products and the growing API (active pharmaceutical ingredients) business. It gives us a generic platform with a broad topical (drug) portfolio and really jumpstarts Perrigo's entry into generics.
"This is the launch into generics that we've been looking for and talking about, and the API business is a wonderful complement to it."
Perrigo is the store brand, over-the-counter leader in consumer health-care products, with a 65 percent market share, Gibbons pointed out. Both companies have had consistent track records of growth, he added. Perrigo's operating income has grown at a 41 percent compound growth rate over the last four years, while Agis has grown 33 percent.
Arkin said the two companies share a rich heritage of commitment to quality and commitment to customers, and he's confident their integration will go smoothly.
"This combination is going to allow us to accelerate our generic API (growth) and grow our overseas franchise," he said.
With the absorption of Agis, Perrigo will have "excellent" R&D capabilities, an experienced global management team, an established position in API, broader capabilities for growth in the global generic pharmaceutical, and added synergies in the generic prescription and OTC businesses, Gibbons said.
Perrigo announced in August 2003 its intention to enter the $15 billion generic prescription market.
"It's a logical extension of our existing business," Gibbons reiterated. "Generics over the past five years has been growing at 10 percent or more per year on average. This is a great opportunity for us to leverage our core capability in a category that is growing at a faster rate than Perrigo's existing categories."
Previously, Perrigo had considered acquisition of Lannet Co., a Philadelphia-based manufacturer and distributor of generic prescription drugs. Perrigo later determined that the acquisition would not be in the best long-term interest of its shareholders, so the company continued to look for acquisition candidates that could accelerate its entry into the generic prescription market.

Lopé National Park
Lope National Park is situated right in the centre of Gabon and was the first protected area following the creation of the Lope-Okanda Wildlife Reserve in 1946. When the country's President declared the creation of 13 national parks in 2002, Lope National Park was included.
Covering an area of 4910 km² the terrain is mostly rainforest. In the north of the park are the last remnants of the grass savannahs created during the last ice age and these represent a unique record of the biological evolution of that time. The Ogooué River runs through the north of Lope with wonderful trees coming down to the rivers edge, playing home to a wide range of birds and mammals (63 species of the latter).
Some of the mammal species include the forest elephant, western lowland gorilla, chimpanzee, mandrill, forest buffalo, sun-tailed guenon, leopard, black colobus, sitantunga and yellow-backed duiker. Bird species include rosy bee-eater, crowned hawk eagle, Dja river warbler, great blue turaco, grey-necked rock fowl (picathartes), the chocolate-backed kingfisher, emerald cuckoo and black guinea fowl. Excursions to observe the mandrills with radio tracking devices have proved to be worthwhile around the Lope Hotel, and some good photographs may be obtained.
A research centre has been established in the park and is managed by the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS) – similar to the establishment in the equally splendid Invindo National Park. Tourists are able to visit and stay at the research centre and take part in the daily research programme, which focuses on the behavior of the great apes, leopards, elephants, buffalo, mandrills, mangabeys and other taxa. Accommodation is very basic, as is the food, and the days are spent in the forest with a packed lunch, French speaking guides and secateurs with which to quietly slice a way through the jungle.
A highlight of staying at the research centre is trying to find the grey-necked pitacarthes (rock fowl) and the success rate is quite high. Be warned – wear long pants with gaiters, long socks and long sleeved shirts as the mosquitoes are very bad around the nesting spots. Access to the research centre is usually in one of the research vehicles travelling along a bumpy dirt road at top speed with your luggage bouncing around in the back of the vehicle. A police check-point asks for yellow fever vaccination certificates and its wise to keep these on you for this journey.
The Lope area has been inhabited for nearly 400,000 years and there are numerous artifacts telling the tales of the ancient hunter-gatherer settlements. The Ogooué River has been a major trading route through these times and a road was built through the north of the park in the 1960s. The area was opened to forestry by the building of the railway in the 1980s – this connects the national park to both Ivindo and Libreville.
Most villages are today concentrated around the railway and road, with very few rural villages in the rest of the Lope area. Some Bongo "pygmy" groups still hunt and gather in the south of the park and a few are employed by the research station due to their skill in tracking through the forest.
The parks is under constant threat from hunting and ivory poaching, as well as commercial logging – however a training centre has been established to train young African conservationists and a good educational programme operates throughout the surrounding villages for further education in wildlife issues.
To be on the safe side, it is better not to drink the tap water in Gabon unless you have water-purifying tablets. Bottled water is widely available, as are soft drinks (usually referred to as jus) like Coca-Cola, Sprite and Fanta, beers, wines and spirits. ... In rural areas, the ubiquitous palm wine is the usual tipple.
CFA franc, Central African CFA franc
May, June, July, August, September
When is the best time of year to Visit Lopé National Park? The dry season from May to September has the bonus of lower humidity. The best time to see the mandrills is between June and November when the males come out of seclusion to find a mate and super troops of hundreds or even 1000+ individuals can congregate.


2017 32,909 +2.50 n.d. n.d. n.d.
Cumulative sales to December 31, 2018: 701,854units (including 49,064 units in CIS states).
Network: 133 dealers in Russian Federation, 5 dealers and 2 distributors in CIS.
Current lowest retail price of this model, for L version, is 574,000 rubbles (approximately US$ 8,654 at the official rate of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation on January 18, 2019).
From January 22, all versions of the newly produced Chevrolet NIVA vehicles will be equipped in with ABS, driver airbag and emergency call system ERA-GLONASS at no extra charge.

Maybe because yours was first and we ran out of serious questions? Who knows .-.
Well, that is true no longer
Quote from: Julia the bookworm on October 12, 2015, 03:57:10 PM
Frivolous Confession: I find it funny that my ask thread has very few questions but is mostly made up of more serious questions.
Why is it opposite of the other ask threads?XD
And mine is almost entirely about green pen questions XD
holywalrus2
Villain, I have done thy mother
Friv. Confession: I'm in love with someone I know will never ever love me back. It sounds shallow and cliche when I say it like that, but it really, really hurts. I want to curl into a ball and disappear when I think about him!
Definitely doesn't assuage my fear of being unloved forever, because nobody has ever loved me romantically!
"Confused? At a loss for what to do? Wow, sounds like you're human. Good luck."
Walrus, you're only fourteen you have plenty of time.
Focus on doing what you love finding out what your beliefs, morals, values, likes, dislikes and what you want to do with your life
I mean I'm five years older then you and I haven't met someone who I shared a mutual attraction towards and that's okay because i've realized that's not something I'm ready for now.
You need to find yourself before you find someone else.
Thank you Julia, that's really comforting. It is kinda silly considering my age, but I just feel like I'm somehow less valuable than my peers because I'm not in a relationship. It's unhealthy to need outside affirmation of my worth, I know, but I can't help it.
BlueberryDoughnut
Knife Wife, Keeper of the Holy Bun
Human beings need to love and be loved. It's not unnatural.
Although I agree with Julia; you're still young, and you've got plenty of time to really cultivate yourself before finding a relationship.
t-tell youw boyfwend if he says he's got beef
that i'm a vegetawian and i ain't f*cking scawed of him
she wants to touch me uwu
she wants to love me uwu
she'll neve leave me uwu, uwu, owo
I think Julia said it perfectly. It's understandable to want a relationship, but if you get involved in one just as a badge to gain approval, it won't end well. A relationship isn't just a status to show off and be proud of, it's a commitment and a consummation of feelings between two people. It's not a bad thing to not be in a relationship, especially at high school age. I'm not (and don't want to be), and a lot of people I know are not, and even though there's a lot of peer pressure to be in a relationship, we're perfectly happy and fulfilled. In fact, I know of a lot of people who have their school lives unnecessarily complicated by relationship troubles. There are ways to make it work of course, but like Julia said, there are more important things at this stage in the game. I wouldn't worry about it too much. Observe your feelings, don't try to change them if you can't, but don't let it get in the way of your life. When the time comes, I'm sure you'll find someone.
What they said.
I honestly do understand what it is to wish for someone to care for you like that. Now I must add that I don't have spicific person, in mind, and honestly would love to have friends period in my area.
I enjoyed writing this description way more than I should have: https://www.etsy.com/listing/252029345/sword-earrings

It really is XD I would totally buy those if I wore earrings.

Orchestra adjusts to modified concerts
Laurie Carrillo
An orchestra members rehearsing during class.
Megan Thomas, Contributing Writer
This year, students and directors from the orchestra department made ways to make the orchestra room a safer zone. This included sanitizer at the entrances and spread out seating. Virtual students came to new practice dates to get caught up.
"Because some students are separate, we only meet on Tuesdays and Thursdays to prevent COVID from the orchestra room, with sanitizing stations everywhere," junior Kaj Falower said.
With all the new routines came added stressors for students and teachers. Rehearsal times changed, and students adapted to practicing without full sections.
"The online students are making it a bit harder because being section leader I can't hear the whole section if students in my section are online," Falower said.
The directors also have their struggles, keeping up with both face-to-face and virtual students. Directors tried to choose concert pieces that students could learn whether at home or in class.
"Challenging for sure," orchestra director Peter Jagdeo said. "Making sure pieces that are easy but still meet the expectations for each orchestra level."
Despite the fact that the concert was still planned, other winter concert activities didn't happen. Many of the students remember things that happened in the years prior to COVID, and are disappointed that this year those things did not happen. Opportunities to volunteer at younger students' concerts, play in the symphony and attend the winter social were all called off.
"The thing I'll miss most is probably the socials before, watching the other concerts and volunteering for the younger grades concerts," sophomore Carley Stoner said.
The standard concert itself has also been moved around. Visitors weren't allowed to be friends, but only family. The orchestra chairs were spread out to where it to with six people in each section. This all may have been hard for the students, families and teachers at the beginning, but they are all proud that the performance was still able to happen.
"Everyone is pleased that they are still able to perform,"Jagdeo said.
Just because the students performed with the same passion on stage doesn't mean it was like that in the classroom. Some students felt that they lost their spark and motivation because the orchestra just wasn't the same.
"Before we learned more as a class, and now it's just one on one." Carley Stoner said.
After all the ups and downs that COVID put on the orchestra department, however, they still plan to continue performing like before.

University seeks opportunities for stimulus bill funding
By Heather Hodder Mar 5, 2009 12:00 AM
With close to $54 billion directed toward education, the recently signed stimulus bill may be cause for many students and teachers across the country to celebrate. But private institutions, like GW, may not be so lucky.
Close to 75 percent of the education stabilization fund in the stimulus package has been designated for states to give to public colleges and school districts, according to The Chronicle of Higher Education. GW administrators are working out the details to figure out how the University – a private school in a District, not a state – can fit into the picture.
"The money that could be given to colleges [in D.C.] is expected to be distributed for historically black and community colleges and sustainability projects," University spokeswoman Tracy Schario said. "We are evaluating the sustainability angle."
GW's location in D.C. could hinder the process for receiving aid, since money from the stabilization fund is largely distributed to states based on population.
Research is a highly funded area where the University is seeking to find opportunities. The $787 billion bill provides $1.3 billion to renovate and equip university research facilities, and the National Institutes of Health will receive $8.7 billion for research grants, according to The Chronicle.
Executive Vice President Lou Katz said that the University is still evaluating the bill and looking for provisions where it could apply for aid, including renovating research labs or specific sustainability projects.
"We are monitoring all aspects of the stimulus bill and seeing what we might be eligible for," Katz said. "But I can tell you that everyone is monitoring the stimulus bill."
Funding for government agencies could also potentially benefit GW.
"Much of the stimulus bill is directed toward states to handle budget shortfalls and restore funding to their agencies," said Michael Akin, executive director of international, government and community relations. "However, there are increases to research funds at NIH, NSF and other government science agencies that may present an opportunity for faculty."
University President Steven Knapp asked GW's Office of External Relations to create a task force that will "bring together decision makers from across the University to look at the potential for each of these sources of funding," Akin said.
In the meantime, like most colleges and universities, GW will see the bill's impact on several existing financial aid programs, including increases in Pell Grants and more than $200 million directed to work-study funds.

President Moon visited Malaysia in 9 years after the last visit of the former president Lee. Moon and First Lady Kim were warmly greeted by Sultan Abdullah of Pahang and Mahathir Bin Mohamad, the Prime Minister.
The two countries tied diplomatic relations in 1960 and the direct lines between Jeju Island and Kuala Lumpur and between Incheon and Johor Bahur prove its high level of cooperation and exchange. Around 610,000 Korean were estimated to have visited Malaysia last year while around 380,000 Malaysians to Korea.
Mr. Mohamad said that he had been looking forward to meeting Moon and wished the summit would raise stronger bilateral relations than ever before. Moon in response praised the Look East Policy of Mr. Mohamad and he would raise the Korea-ASEAN relations to the level of that with the US, China, Japan and Russia through his New Southern Policy.
President Moon and Hassanal Bolkiah, Sultan of Brunei, discussed on bilateral relations, Korea-ASEAN cooperation and the situation on the Korean Peninsula at the summit. They signed a joint agreement consisted of 24 articles after the summit.
"I'm really glad that Korean companies have taken part in building Ripas Bridge and Temburong Bridge that will be two symbols of your feat. I hope Koreans' cutting edge technique, knowledge and experience will keep contributing to development of Brunei. I'm also glad that our cooperation is expanding to gas field development and selling and we will willingly make a bid when you call for bids of a long term LNG contract" said Moon.
President Moon met Hun Sen, Prime Minister of Cambodia, and shared opinions on strengthening friendship, co-growth, Korea-ASEAN cooperation, and peace on the Korean Peninsula.
"Since the diplomatic ties in 1997, the two countries have made a great advancement in cooperation. The trade volume reached near USD 1 billion and people exchange over 400,000 last year. It is also notable that about 50,000 Cambodians are living in Korea. Cambodia is the second largest development partner of Korea and an important partner of our New Southern Policy. I hope your national development plan and our New Southern Policy will create synergy effects on the way to co-growth and prosperity" said Moon.
The two leaders signed 4 organizational agreements and 1 government agreement after the summit.
