Thriving trade setting up high-level visit from US
With their investment and trade blossoming, Vietnam and the United States are expected to soon see a high-level visit from the latter to the former, which is hoped to lay firm groundwork for both nations to elevate their existing ties to a greater level next year.
Over the past few weeks, Vietnam and the US have been making preparations for talks between Party General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong and US President Joe Biden, and then an upcoming visit by the latter to the Southeast Asian nation.
During US Vice President Kamala Harris' November 18 meeting with Vietnamese State President Nguyen Xuan Phuc on the margins of the APEC Leaders Meeting in Bangkok, the Vietnamese leader reaffirmed the desire to boost both nations' relationship towards a more practical and stable manner.

"Via Vice President Harris, President Phuc honourably invites US President Joe Biden to soon pay a visit to Vietnam. He acclaims President Joe Biden's proposal to have talks on the phone with Party General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong, and he suggested that both sides make thorough preparations for the talks," said a release from Vietnam's Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA).
Meanwhile, the White House also said that during the meeting between Vice President Harris and President Phuc, "The vice president recalled her August 2021 trip to Hanoi and reaffirmed our commitment to deepen the US-Vietnam partnership. They discussed our work together to promote a free and open Indo-Pacific and stand up for international rules and norms. They also discussed strengthening economic ties between the United States and Vietnam as the US prepares to host APEC in 2023."
On November 12 at the 40th and 41st ASEAN Summit and related meetings in Cambodia, PM Chinh met with President Biden, with both discussing measures to promote bilateral relations. They said Vietnam and the US will strengthen exchanges and dialogue at all levels as well as carry out high-level visits as conditions permit.
PM Chinh conveyed greetings from Party chief Trong and President Phuc and also invited the US president to Vietnam. Biden accepted the invitations and promised to arrange a visit at an appropriate time.
Promoting ties
Next year, both countries will celebrate 10 years of a comprehensive partnership. The occasion will provide a window of opportunity to elevate the existing comprehensive partnership to a strategic one which, if realised, will contribute to helping further improve their trade and investment cooperation.
The act of upgrading the US-Vietnam comprehensive partnership to a strategic partnership would most likely be marked by a joint statement signed by the two heads of state.
Currently, Vietnam has tried to elevate its status by strengthening relations with all five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council. So far, Vietnam has a comprehensive strategic cooperative partnership with China, a comprehensive strategic partnership with Russia, and strategic partnerships with the United Kingdom and France, but only a comprehensive partnership with the United States.
While speaking with PM Chinh, Biden suggested the two countries continue to promote strong cooperation in order to strengthen bilateral relations, especially in areas of mutual benefit and make positive contributions to peace, stability, cooperation, and development in the region and beyond.
"Both leaders reaffirmed that great importance and high priority that they attached to the comprehensive partnership between the two countries, and Vietnam and the US will strengthen exchanges and dialogues at all levels, especially those by top leaders, via many flexible forms," said the MoFA.
In its latest move, on November 10, the US Department of Treasury issued a report on macroeconomic and foreign exchange policies of major US trading partners. Accordingly, the US has removed Vietnam from the monitoring list for currency manipulation.
The report continued to examine the currency manipulation capabilities of the main trading partners based on the bilateral trade surplus with the US, current account surplus, and prolonged one-way foreign exchange market intervention.
"Vietnam has been removed from the monitoring list, having only met one of the three criteria over the four quarters through June 2022 as it had in the June 2022 Report for the four quarters through December 2021," read the report.
According to Vietnam's Ministry of Industry and Trade, Vietnam and the US are expected to continue witnessing trade cooperation flourish. In the first 10 months of this year, the US was Vietnam's largest export market, with total turnover of $93.4 billion, up 22.3 per cent on-year.
Adam Sitkoff, executive director of the American Chamber of Commerce in Hanoi, expects US-Vietnam trade and investment ties to further flourish on the back of a new cooperation framework like strategic partnership.
"Vietnam and the United States have developed a healthy commercial relationship that has created jobs, tax revenue, and opportunities for the citizens of both countries," Sitkoff said. "The US is Vietnam's largest export market. Vietnam also receives billions of US dollars of foreign investment from US companies each year - much of it to build integrated supply chains that benefit American consumers. At the same time, Vietnam has become one of America's fastest growing export markets."
In an example, Bank of America is seeking permission to establish a $50 million branch in Ho Chi Minh City. The second-largest lender in the US boasts 450 world-leading investors in its investment portfolio.
It is expected that Madhu Kannan, executive vice chair of global corporate and investment banking, will come to the city for further discussion on the issue in the near future.
During PM Chinh's visit to the US in May, enterprises from both nations exchanged many cooperation deals and trade contracts worth over $30 billion.
"US companies and investors bring high-quality products and state-of-the-art technologies, services, and business practices to Vietnam. We partner with Vietnam to develop high-tech, innovative industries," Sitkoff said.
"The US business community is optimistic about Vietnam's prospects for continued strong economic growth in 2022 and beyond, despite global headwinds. Vietnam has been doing an extremely effective job at managing global challenges – from the pandemic, sharp downturn in the global economy, and inflation in key inputs."
Statistics from Vietnam's Ministry of Planning and Investment showed that as of October 20, US investors registered $11.45 billion in Vietnam in over 1,200 valid projects, making the US the 11th largest foreign investor in the Southeast Asian nation.
In the January-October 20 period, newly registered capital, stake acquisition, and capital contributions from US investors in Vietnam were all worth $702.68 million, with 72 newly licensed projects.
"The sectors that US businesses hope to invest in and cooperate with Vietnam include high technology, energy, agriculture, healthcare/pharmaceuticals, finance, aviation, and tourism," said Nguyen Quoc Dung, Vietnamese Ambassador to the United States.
To grasp opportunities of economic cooperation with the US, Dung recommended that Vietnam should maintain high-level relations with the US to promote their partnership momentum, develop the key exports to the US, create more favourable conditions for its products to enter Vietnam, soon sign a double taxation avoidance agreement, and approve common principles on auditing to facilitate investment in Vietnam.
"Moreover, it is necessary to make use of US assistance for the realisation of the COP26 commitments while maintaining dialogue and paying attention to US business proposals," Dung said.
Building US-Vietnam ties via trade
As the United States and Vietnam will approach the 10-year anniversary of the Comprehensive Partnership, it is an exciting time for our bilateral relationship and the United States' engagement with the broader Southeast Asia region.
US investors display confidence in Vietnam
Vietnam and the United States are seeking ways to increase their investment and trade ties, with the latter pledging to support the latter in education, training, and the energy transition.

Picchetti Ranch, named after the Picchetti family, who emigrated from Italy in the 1870s, features a brick winery building and farm complex. The District purchased this historical area located above Stevens Creek Reservoir in 1976. The Preserve features 3.7 miles of trail, the historic Picchetti Winery, and surrounding homestead.
Visitors may enjoy the hillside orchards that burst into color in spring, or a hike through the oak woodland.
Picchetti Winery, built in the late 1890s, is currently leased to and operated by a private party. Visitors are welcome to enjoy public tastings in the historic building or on the adjoining picnic areas.
Accessible Trails - The area within the winery complex has wide dirt roads that can be navigated by most wheelchairs. There is an accessible restroom and wheelchair lift into the winery. The trails outside the winery complex are not improved for wheelchair access.
Bear Meadow Trail - This trail invites a leisurely walk to a small pond, making a pleasant setting for a picnic. From there, the trail winds to the summit of a knoll, which offers superb views.
Zinfandel Trail - Provides an 1.9-mile long, easy hike through shaded areas lush with ferns and a view of Stevens Creek Reservoir; the trail connects with Stevens Creek County Park.
A picturesque fragment of Santa Clara County history lives on at the Picchetti Ranch Area. The area, named after brothers Vincenzo and Secondo Picchetti, dates back to the 1800s when Vincenzo emigrated from Italy and shortly thereafter purchased a parcel of land on the ridge of what he referred to as "Monte Bello," Italian for beautiful mountain.
The brothers planted vineyards and orchards here that would become the main livelihood for four generations. Production of the wine began in 1877 and, in 1896, the family invested their money into the development of the main winery that remains today along with the other now historic buildings onsite. Originally bought by Vincenzo's son John, the peacocks that continue to wander the grounds are a reminder of another time when the ranch was filled with various animals and livestock. During prohibition, the family sold portions of their land and relied on income from the prunes, apricots, and pears that grew in the orchards, and on the horses that boarded on the ranch. Eventually the land and business ceased to be profitable for the family.
When the District acquired the 308 acres of land property in 1976, the winery and building were in a state of great disrepair. Support from other groups began the process of restoring the historic buildings, which are listed in the National Registry of Historic Places. The former homestead, ranch, and operating winery, now leased to a private party, are at the edge of the 308-acre Preserve.
Special Thanks to the Santa Clara County Historical Society, the California Office of Historic Preservation, and the previous lessees Ron and Rolayne Stortz, this special place has a new lease on life.

Joseph Parkin Burton (10 December 1873 – 25 January 1940) was an English cricketer who played first-class cricket for Derbyshire during the 1901 season.

Burton was born at Somercotes, Derbyshire, the son of Thomas Burton, a plumber and painter, and his wife Elizabeth. He made his debut for Derbyshire in the 1901 season in a draw against Nottinghamshire in July in which he made his career-best score of 51 not out from sixth in the batting order. In the same match, English Test cricketer Billy Gunn hit a career best innings of 273, and in response  Levi Wright hit an innings of 193 for Derbyshire. Burton made two solid innings of 34 and 33  a week later against Gloucestershire and opened with 41 against Hampshire. However, in the other four matches he only achieved low scores and did not play another season.

Burton  was a right-handed batsman and played twelve innings in seven first-class matches with an average of 18.18 and a top score of 51 not out.

Burton died at Somercotes aged 67.

Summary form only given. Strong room temperature photoluminescence (PL) centered at 1.30 /spl mu/m with linewidth 21 meV has been achieved in bilayer stacks of InAs island quantum dots (QDs) on GaAs  utilizing the variable deposition amount (VDA) approach in molecular beam epitaxy. In VDA, the first layer deposition conditions control the density of vertically correlated island stacks formed upon subsequent deposition of a second layer whose deposition amount controls the average island size and size distribution in the second layer. This affords independent control on the QD density and size in the second layer QDs, thus allowing luminescence at longer wavelengths through creation of coherent larger size QDs. We have examined the PL, electroluminescence (EL) and structural characteristics of this class of structures for their potential use in light emitting diodes and lasers.

Guide TS870 Thermal Imaging Riflescopes's new thermal imaging sight. It features a high frame rate for fluid images when observing dynamic objects. The battery can be inserted either way for ergonomic use at night. TS series really gives hunters and outdoor enthusiasts the ability to see clearly in total darkness.


What a race! Really the first I have watched this year for a number of reasons. Gilbert has to go down on the short list of the greatest racers of all time with what he accomplished in 2011 and now with four Monuments. Great riding! Quite the debut for Specialized's new Roubaix as well. Long live the Classics!
I was really pulling for Wout van Aert. What a string of bad luck he endured but stayed in it for so long.
Yeah, that poor guy had the worst race ever, but showed so much guts pushing himself as far as he did. He should be one for the future for sure.
Sad to see Sagan fade the way he did. Yeah, van Aert deserves some kind of "Hard Man of the Cobbles" award.
Btw, wtf happened to Taylor Phinney? By the side of the road with a mechanical and the team car doesn't see him??? I'd like to have heard the post-race conversation.

4 out of 5 Monuments in the bag for Gilbert, a most impressive feat. I predict he will be riding Milan-San Remo next year.
Very happy for Gilbert. Now he has maybe 2-3 more attempts at Milan-San Remo. He's apparently said it's very unlikely he'll race past 38 years old. I expect to see him target MSR the next two season to try to win all 5 monuments. Even if he doesn't get it, 4 different monuments plus the Worlds is impressive.
In contrast, DQS's tactics have been outstanding this year. Lampert and Gilbert played that breakaway move perfectly, kudos to them.

Yeah, Sagan definitely appears to be lacking something so far this season. He has had bad Springs before, so maybe he will pull it together by grand tour season. Hey, a messy divorce or an unwanted one, can certainly mess with the best of us and throw off the old mojo for some time. I definitely wouldn't rule that out as a result. Looking forward to seeing where everyone is performance wise for the Ardennes. If he is fully recovered, Alaphillipe could be a handful.
Sagan and Valverde are both off just a little this spring, although for very different reasons. I would be surprised if Sagan's divorce is part of why he's been off. Valverde, I'm sure it's more finally getting the one win he's wanted since he was a young child. Back to Sagan, if it is the divorce, wonder if maybe he should go talk with Valverde. Valverde went through a nasty divorce at about the same age Sagan is going through his and also had young children involved. His twins were infants at the time.
The Ardennes will be interesting this year.

I received my official invitation from the graduate school yesterday!
Accepted from the 9/28 interview!!!
This breaks down actual costs: https://www.utrgv.edu/pa/_files/documents/pa-costofattending 2017-2018.pdf The $68,000 might be the total cost of attending which includes room and board and all additional costs. Most schools just show the tuition cost which is much less. If you look at only tuition on that chart, it costs around $20,000 for a resident. Hope that helps!

Project name: Water for Life (Yangon), Myanmar
Host partner: Mingalar Myanmar
Singapore partners: Keppel Land and Singapore Red Cross
Outcomes: The project brought together Myanmar- and Singapore-based organisations and individuals to bring clean water to over 7,000 villagers in the townships of Kaw Hmu and Kungyangon. Over the course of three years, 36 tube wells were installed in 36 villages by 132 Singapore International Volunteers. Community education programmes on basic hygiene were also conducted for villagers, and five rural health centres and two district hospitals were refurbished. Medical equipment was also donated to two township hospitals, two station hospitals and two rural health centres, allowing healthcare workers to perform their work more efficiently. In total, we impacted the lives of 22,000 villagers. Over 95 per cent of the village heads and villagers reported a significant reduction in water-borne diseases cases, and SIF hygiene posters were widely used by villagers to reference best practices. Teachers also reported that students who had attended our hygiene classes became so committed to good hygiene practices that they constantly reminded their teachers to wash their hands.

History Behind Face Of Aunt Jemima – East Texas Native Lillian Richard
By Ken Molestina June 17, 2020 at 6:36 pm
Filed Under:Aunt Jemima, East Texas, Hawkins, Pancakes, Quaker Oats, Syrup, Texas
HAWKINS, Texas (CBSDFW.COM) – In ongoing efforts to align with changing times, Quaker Oats announced it will drop the iconic image of Aunt Jemima from their pancake and syrup products as it acknowledges the brand's origins are based on a racial stereotype.
One of the women who portrayed Aunt Jemima is Lillian Richard, an East Texas native who helped put her town on the map.
Richard was born and raised in Hawkins, Texas. She was the face of Aunt Jemima pancakes from 1925 to 1940.
Signs into Hawkins proudly welcome visitors into the "Home of Lillian Richard 'Aunt Jemima.'" The state's historical commission declared the town the pancake capital of Texas because of her role.
Bessie Peeples is with the Hawkins Chamber of Commerce and said she believes the decision to drop the image of Aunt Jemima is wrong.
"I think they are going overboard in trying to over correct something that I don't believe was ever the intent," Peeples said.
In a statement about the decision, Quaker Oats said: "We recognize Aunt Jemima's origins are based on a racial stereotype. While work has been done over the years to update the brand in a manner intended to be appropriate and respectful, we realize those changes are not enough."
In Hawkins, however, it's hard to find anyone who agrees with that decision.
"I don't see where she [has] anything to do with what is happening in the world today…" resident Kenneth Lemons said.
"I just don't see them buying a box without her picture on it," resident John Bowden added.
Quaker Oats said it will announce a new name for the pancake and syrup products later this year.

Although his stylist obviously took the time to shape up his sideburns and goatee, it�s clear to see that he didn�t take the time to tell him that beard dreads are a horrible idea. They don�t look good on anyone, no matter how much money you make so your best �... p.s. you can also usually tell what parts of what dreads may have build up. They'll be harder and feel different to the others, just like you can feel the difference between the crocheted dread and the new hair that dreaded up since.
Every hairstyle has people it looks good on, and everybody has hairstyles that look better on them than others. I've seen girls that look great in dreads and others where it was like, "Hm." I've seen girls that look great in dreads and others where it was like, "Hm."
