Quentin Grimes withdraws from NBA draft pool, plans to transfer from KU

Kansas freshman Quentin Grimes is not staying in the NBA draft, but he is not returning to KU either.
Through a release from the Kansas basketball offices, Grimes on Wednesday evening announced his intention to transfer to another university for the 2019-20 season.
In accordance with NCAA transfer rules, Grimes, who did not immediately return the Journal-World's text message requests for comment on Wednesday night, will sit out what would have been his sophomore season and will then either be eligible to leave for the 2020 NBA Draft or play at his new school.
Grimes becomes the 20th Jayhawk to transfer out of the KU program since 2004, — vs. 14 transfers in — is the third player from the 2018-19 team to transfer (joining Charlie Moore, DePaul, and K.J. Lawson, Tulane) and is by far the biggest name and most highly ranked prep prospect on the list of players to leave Self's program via the transfer route.
The former 5-star prospect from The Woodlands, Texas, came to Kansas as a likely one-and-done prospect and a projected lottery pick in the 2019 NBA Draft.
Now, if his decision to transfer is an indication that he plans to play at least one more season of college ball before turning pro, Grimes, who just turned 19, will be in school at least three full seasons before making the jump to the NBA.
There's no word yet on where Grimes will end up. He chose Kansas over Kentucky, Marquette and Texas.
In 36 games with the Jayhawks last season, the 6-foot-5 combo guard who played for Self on the USA Basketball U18 men's national team at the FIBA Americas tournament last summer, averaged 8.4 points and 2.5 rebounds per game.
He shot 34 percent from 3-point range and 38.4 percent from the floor in 988 minutes while consistently searching for his breakthrough moment.
Many believed it came in his KU debut, when Grimes hit six 3-pointers in the Jayhawks' season-opening victory over Michigan State at the Champions Classic last November, but the big, athletic guard never seemed to find his complete rhythm as the season went on.
Asked after the season if his inability to find his flow caused him to scratch his head, Grimes admitted to being caught off guard by his struggles.
"Yeah, I definitely was surprised, just knowing what I can do and my skill set and everything," he told the Journal-World in March. "But it's just a learning experience. You grow from it and learn from it and it's definitely going to make me a better player. It's tough just kind of knowing what you can do and everything you have inside of you and what you've worked for. But you can't worry about that. You have to keep focusing on you and bettering yourself and just do what you can for the team."
Earlier Wednesday, Self confirmed to the Journal-World that All-American junior forward Dedric Lawson would keep his name in the 2019 draft pool, a move that most expected the day Lawson declared for the draft.
With the final pieces of the decision puzzle now in place, next season's team currently includes the following scholarship players: Seniors Udoka Azubuike and Mitch Lightfoot, juniors Marcus Garrett and Silvio De Sousa, sophomores Devon Dotson, Ochai Agbaji and David McCormack and freshmen Christian Braun, Issac McBride and Tristan Enaruna.
With former Michigan signee Jalen Wilson — 6-8, 210, 4 stars — slated to visit KU this weekend, the Jayhawks have three scholarships left to give out and the kind of depth and balance to be able to use those three scholarships on any number of players or positions.

Well, I'm glad you enjoyed coaching him, Bill, because the rest of us didn't enjoy watching him much. Overhyped and underachieving. Let him go be someone else's problem.
Marius Rowlanski 3 years, 8 months ago
To tell the truth Bryce, it never looked like the uniform fit him anyways.
Sae Thirtysix 3 years, 8 months ago
Wish it could've worked for a return, yet understand / not surprised by this decision. QG - always a Jayhawk.
Ben Berglund 3 years, 8 months ago
I'm baffled by the decision to transfer. Seemed like he was pretty set to only play 1 year of college, seems like he would have a spot in our rotation next year, and now he'll be in college 3 years minimum. I wish the young man the best of luck, but frankly don't get it.
Dane Pratt 3 years, 8 months ago
Players usually transfer because they anticipate the lack of pt. Maybe he didn't see eye to eye with Bill. Whatever. I wish he would stay but I wish him no ill will.
Greg Bowles 3 years, 8 months ago
I can tell you the reason he is not returning to Kansas. I believe, that he didn't get the love he expected from Jayhawk nation. But, when you have a hyped up expectation coming in and fall way short, you're not going to get the respect you deserve. I said this in an earlier post and said that he would not return to KU. Not surprised, except the transfer makes no logical sense what so ever.
Tom Jones 3 years, 8 months ago
"I can tell you the reason he is not returning to Kansas."
Apparently, you cannot. Because he "didn't get love"? BAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA!!!
Yeah, definitely not his reason for not returning but I think it may have played a part in transferring. He wasn't going to lose playing time to Garrett or Ochai unless one of them learned to shoot the three. But I thought he made it clear that he wasn't coming back. There was an article here that didn't say he was definitely leaving but it sure left that impression:
http://www2.kusports.com/news/2019/apr/10/quentin-grimes-says-goodbye-kansas-declares-2019-n/?mens_basketball
Grimes was never able to put it all together but I think the talent is real. Grimes never had a chance to win over many hard-core fans and there was definitely a difference between the comments towards Grimes/Dotson.
Personally, I was hoping he would come back. I don't believe it was all hype, I just think he needs more confidence. Unfortunately for us, there is no one to replace him who can score.
At least we have a point guard that can lead this team and Silvio can be the engine.
Chris DeWeese 3 years, 8 months ago
He knew he wouldn't be PG. He won't get drafted, so he's gotta go somewhere that'll let him be PG so he can show out.
How did you come to that conclusion Chris?
Ryan Mullen 3 years, 8 months ago
He very smart.
David Howell 3 years, 8 months ago
He was finally faced with the facts that although he was a McDonald's All-American his freshman year was mostly a flop. On top of that from what I read his NBA tryouts were an even bigger flop. The extra year will allow him to improve his shooting and dribbling skills !
Now whether or not they will ever be sufficient enough to get onto an NBA roster remains to be seen ................ I do not see a NBA point guard in Grimes.
Craig Carson 3 years, 8 months ago
I certainly didnt expect this.....I guess technically, Grimes was a OAD, we only had him at KU for 1 year LOL....least Dotson came back..he was the more important one anyway....I wish Grimes success where ever he goes..unless he plays on a KU opponent LOL
If he's committed to at least two more years of college I'd rather see him in Lawrence than somewhere else. He may not have lived up to his hype but players mature and improve. That's college ball.
Mike Riches 3 years, 8 months ago
I am surprised by this, not because he withdrew from the draft, but transferring to another school is somewhat baffling to me. He doesn't have much competition at his position for next year, and why play the waiting game?? Not to mention all things he had at Kansas that he won't find at most schools. Maybe he'll look at joining the Australian league too..
Stephen Dobelbower 3 years, 8 months ago
I have a suspicion Bill showed him the door, but was graceful enough to offer his family to save face by making it look like they chose to transfer. Why would a OAD sit a year to play anywhere? Even Kentucky or Duke? Like they would have him? Something smells. I would have liked to see him play for another year, but I suspect Bill has reason's for not wanting him back. Would love to know the truth....
Brian Skelly 3 years, 8 months ago
+1 and many more. I think it's this. Think of the guys who've transferred or gone pro and it's all magnanimous. But if it really was, that guy probably isn't leaving.
Steve Quatrocky 3 years, 8 months ago
He believed all the high school hype, was never humble enough to "get it", and was so sure he'd be a One and Done he may not have done his Spring academics. Given that Adidas has been to court already, I wouldnt be surprised to see him transfer to a Nike school, as its obvious the NCAA doesnt want to know anything about Duke and Arizona, and can probably still get a "signing bonus" under the table. EGO is his main problem. Ochai gets the chance this year instead of guaranteeing Q the starts.
Showed him the door?
It's probably just a coincidence that Dotson coming back = Grimes leaving...oh wait, Grimes wants to play PG like he will at the next level.
you have a point..for sure
Zeik Montellioso 3 years, 8 months ago
It's not about Dotson or the PG position. If Grimes was truly good at PG, there would be no hesitation from HCBS from playing both Dotson and Grimes at the same time. In fact Bill loves to play with double PG's on the floor.
Mike Hart 3 years, 8 months ago
Grimes has commented repeatedly in May about how he thinks he can play point guard... and that Kansas has him playing off the call, so it didn't really showcase his entire skill set. My guess... is that with Dotson coming back, he wasn't going to get that point guard opportunity. Notice how Grimes' decision came after Dotson's... coincidentally? I think he will transfer where he thinks he can handle the point. How he plans to DEFEND point guards is another story...
Jeff Coffman 3 years, 8 months ago
His 3 point shot just didn't materialize. 3 years with BS would be good. I guess DII he could play immediately. I'm surprised he isnt going international over the transfer route.
We wish you well as you embark on your next phase.
Jay Scott 3 years, 8 months ago
Svi, Selden, Andrew White, Brannen Greene, Frankamp, Mason, Tyshawn, EJ, all shot worse from 3 as freshmen.
Greene, not one of Bill's best decisions.
Drew Doerfler 3 years, 8 months ago
i'm sorry, but this makes zero sense.....that's the loyalty you show to a coach that gave you every chance and opportunity in the world when you really didn't earn it or deserve it with your play? You transfer from one of the top schools because the coach started you every game and let you have a ton of playing time that you really didn't do anything with? I'm sorry, but don't let the door hit you on the butt on the way out.......I had such high hopes for Grimes going into the season, but he was average at best and I couldn't really tell you one aspect where he actually excelled.....bye
Agreed, even if he had all the talent in the world, he wasnt teachable due to his own ego and his parents too. He had his chance, got the starts his freshman year even when he didnt deserve them. Its somebody else's turn this year. Ochai is a better fit, a team player who has just as high a ceiling and is more likely to get there because he is coachable.
Obviously not enough talent to play PG especially now as positionless basketball is becoming the norm. And you're right that he had plenty of time to show off his skills.
Armen Kurdian 3 years, 8 months ago
Q's a head-scratcher. The decision to transfer, sit out a season, then play another...well, maybe weighing that against what might have been limited playing time at KU, I guess. But sacrificing a year is a risk. Maybe he'll go somewhere he can be a big fish in a smaller pond so that he stands out more. Always hope players succeed, nothing against him.
Lance Iamnot 3 years, 8 months ago
Or, maybe the feedback the NBA gave Grimes was that Grimes needed to be in a different college program than KU in order to better develop the things he needs to develop. What would you do if you were in Grimes' shoes and NBA teams were giving you this feedback? And, just maybe, HCBS agreed with that feedback, because Self I think shoots straight with kids in this critical stuff with his players' futures. Again, what would you do then?
Sam Meyer 3 years, 8 months ago
This smells to me like HCBS didn't really want him back. It makes no sense for him to transfer. He now has to wait 2 additional years (realistically) to get to the NBA rather than getting into the gym and working towards next season. I wish him the best. He may have been a disappointment on the court, but he did keep his nose clean and didn't disgrace the university.
Adam Bengtson 3 years, 8 months ago
This is a kid when things got tough he runs. I can see his character right in front of us. Then to wait till last minute on pull your name out day...what a coward. He knew this the whole time. Really needs to re-evaluate his attitude. Dumb decisions after dumb decisions. Yeah transferring isn't going to fix your game. I wanted to see this kid comeback and improve, but he ran. Find some other coach that will suck up to your high school career.
and in a surprise twist, Dedric comes back to show NBA scouts that he can play the 3 which is why Grimes left......if only.....lol
Steve Corder 3 years, 8 months ago
Yes, Stephen, why would a OAD sit out year 2 as a practice player at a D1 school? Something is not kosher here.
Michael Sillman 3 years, 8 months ago
I agree with Mike Hart that he probably wants to go somewhere that he can be a point guard due to NBA feedback. Clearly he must also want a change of scenery. To tell the truth it might be good for him. He's taking the Malik Newman route.
which still makes no sense.....he has to sit out a year when transferring....if he were to stay at KU for another 2 years and had pro point guard skills, he would be KU's starting point guard as a junior just like if he had transferred
Martin Rosenblum 3 years, 8 months ago
He left his mark on our program this year. But, the mark was not what it should or could have been. Regardless, the Vick departure had more of an impact on the season than the under-achievements of Grimes. Would he be better on the 2019-2020 Jayhawk team? probably not with the SDS return as well as a healthy Dok and an improved McCormack. Not to mention the infusion of new blood. Ochai probably had a better year than Grimes in many ways and can only get better too. He was in a slot that many have occupied in the past and left for new horizons. It will be interesting to see where he lands and how he is utilized. If KJ Lawson was able to find a new team in Tulane, with his late/post season improvements, Grimes may find himself hard-pressed to end up somewhere other than the likes of Creighton or even a St. Louis Univ.
Derek Bonin 3 years, 8 months ago
I know Creighton is not a blue blood program, but I actually think they would be a pretty good fit for Q at this point. With so many three point shooters around him it would take some of the pressure off, and Creighton's wide open, transition style offense would open up more opportunities to show his athleticism. Plus, Big East basketball receives more than enough exposure with their FOX deal.
Gonzaga might be the best option for him.
Layne Pierce 3 years, 8 months ago
Perhaps he doesn't get along with Dotson. Sad thing is his overall game was just beginning to come around, last 10 games he was generally better.
He was still the best 3pt shooter on team after Vick. 34% is not great, but it is better than the KU average. In the games we lost, we shot often under 30%. So big question for next year is who should be taking the 3pt shots at crucial times in the game.
As long as Grimes doesn't go to Texas, I could care less. Hasta la vista, baby!

Bill guaranteed him a starting spot last year and withdrew that guarantee for the upcoming year. That's why he's transferring.
Kyle Berthusen 3 years, 8 months ago
This is exactly it. He may lose his spot to Agbaji AND McBride
He was so overconfident about being a OAD, he may have not taken care of the academics either. I think we all agree, getting Dotson back was more important, and going back to playing two bigs, the minutes arent there to guarantee him the starts and PT this year.
We benefited greatly from the same decision made by Malik Newman. Why criticize this kid?
Town Thomas 3 years, 8 months ago
It's obvious Grimes waited for Dotson's decision. It would be the best scenario for him if DD stayed in the draft. I could see an agreement between Coach Self and Grimes' family. If DD did not come back, QG would be KU's starting point guard next season. He is a good point guard and KU would still be fine. However, DD decides to come back and he has the priority (this may also be a condition for DD to come back - not to play off guard). So Coach Self won't let QG run point in that case. I could actually see that Self support QG to transfer if his family really wanted him to play point guard. There should not be any hard feelings between both parties since this is quite understandable. I wish QG all the best.
Barry Weiss 3 years, 8 months ago
I was a fan of Q and really wanted him to come back. I think it would have clicked for him this year, but he does seem to have this desire to be the PG. He just does not strike me as that type, maybe because I've seen the quickness of Dotson. Q will always be a Jayhawk and I hope we do not have to face him in the future.
I'd argue Grimes was the biggest mismatch of hype vs. actual production we've had in a hot shot Freshman recruit in a long time. He peaked the first game. Was alarmingly bad or mediocre for most of the season. He was better later in the year. If the idea of him playing point was true, he wasn't going to unseat Dotson. Im a little surprised but whatever. I really don't think we'll miss him, and I really dont think he's going to be a great NBA player. He's just a guy at best at the next level.
Josh Selby.
I'd agree Jay, but if you remember, he had to SIT for a long time -- impermissible benefits I think -- and really never got on track. But your correct, the hype machine was in full bore for that kid as well.
I think Jay is right but for me, Brannan Greene tops the list.
Ashwin Rao 3 years, 8 months ago
Love the story-lines emerging in this thread with mystery, suspense and intrigue that can rival a good novel. In reality, maybe Grimes just needed a change! :) Young kids' minds don't think logically sometimes, so I am not surprised by this decision.
I appreciate Q's being with the team last year, when things were quite tough all around. I want to wish him the best in his career moving forward!
Bob Thompson 3 years, 8 months ago
I had high hopes last year, but is seemed to me that the team never really played well together. I watched some of the games from a few years ago, and you could see the chemistry between the players that just never developed with last years team. We most likely will never know why, but to be a really good team you need to be a team. I think that is the reason we had so many transfer.
RJ King 3 years, 8 months ago
Other than Ochai, I just don't recall many smiles from this team. That is partly due to the challenges they faced (Dok's injury, Silvio waiting on the sidelines, Vicks antics, and freshman in the pressure cooker).
But Dotson usually had the look of a Frank Mason-type pitbull, while Quentin just looked like he wasn't having very much fun.
true, the chemistry just was not there last year. I think Dotson steps up as the true leader this year and pushes the others to another b-12 championship.
At least we didn't have a daddy being quoted and appearing to be the ringleader in this matter! Without that piece, it felt more like Quentin was calling the shots and not having to use his daddy as a hype man. Support is great at that age, but when it starts producing quotes to the media such as Hampton's dad "...we're not going back to high school...", etc., most people lose the "spirit" of a college-aged kid making decisions either well or poorly.
Grimes has talent. It's unfortunate that he didn't find a way to make a bigger and more consistent impact.
It seems that Grimes and HCBS are not in agreement about his role this coming season. How many of us did what was in our own best interests at that age? I hope he does well at a school we never face.
Maybe a conference switch, but close to home - like A&M, Houston, SMU? I don't know their roster make up. TCU will be without Jaylen Fisher (but that's this year).
I guess there's a chance he could sit out the year and then re-renter the draft? But I suppose teams will take the chance that they will have him for his junior year (like Malik).
Danny Hernandez 3 years, 8 months ago
Q transferring is a huge mistake and he will regret the decision. The young fella needs to mature, improve his game and mental outlook. Coach Self isn't a Coach Howland which is why Malik transferred. And both scenarios are not the same except for pulling out of the draft & then transferring. Malik could have played at Kansas one more year & most likely improved his draft selection. That is what Q could have achieved with one more year. Seems like Coach Self & Co wasted a year on the kid.But good luck to him wherever he may go. He was lights out against Mich State and could have been playing in MSG against Duke in November too! Oh well.
Bville Hawk 3 years, 8 months ago
Micah Downs?
not really because that was due to a coaching change.
Andy Godwin 3 years, 8 months ago
Clearly Mr. Grimes has potential and one can only hope that he succeeds obtaining his dream. According to ESPN, he is the second rated player in the transfer portal (for players ineligible next season). A season that ended with no championships for the first time in a long while, it was clear the chemistry and talent level was not great. Vick was asked to leave, while KJ, Charlie, and now Q are transferring out of the program. As most know, scholarships are awarded for one year and must be renewed. Clearly with the high numbers of players that transfer out, Self and the players uses this as a way of reassessing the fit (20 players in 15 years). I personally don't like the senior/redshirt junior rule that allows graduate to leave a program without sitting out (although Tarik Black was a great addition for a year, while Dwight Coleby, Jr. was a significant lose), but do endorse allowing players who are not happy in one program to transfer, sit out a year, get their academics in order, while learning a new system. Grimes has the talent to succeed, but under Self struggled mightily to play team defense which likely lead to underproduction at other facets of his game. If he finds a program where he is the top dog on offense and doesn't have to play sophisticated defensive schemes he should do well.
Kurt Eskilson 3 years, 8 months ago
Was Vick asked to leave? Wasn't it his choice? It certainly appeared that Self held the door to return open for the first few weeks.
Pius Waldman 3 years, 8 months ago
Just remember opinions are not facts. Those that post share their thinking and some are speculating. I don't know the reason for Vick not finishing the season but to say Self kicked him out before the season ended would be hard to believe.
Mike Greer 3 years, 8 months ago
He didn't have a good freshman year, from the reports he didn't do well at the audition either, perhaps he's looking to wipe the slate clean and get a reboot. Maybe leaving KU and sitting out a year gives him the opportunity to "start over".
Agreed. Much like Malik Newman.
Michael Terry 3 years, 8 months ago
While a disappointment, it certainly comes as no surprise Grimes is choosing to transfer rather than return to KU. He obviously got some feedback from the NBA that he's nowhere close to being ready and would not be drafted. I think he also saw the writing on the wall that his minutes would be heavily impacted by the emergence of Ochai Agbaji, who many think will be drafted in the first round next year. I'm sure Bill Self told him if he were to return the minutes Grimes received last year would be up for grabs to whoever played best. That's unlike last year when Self was committed to Grimes even though many thought he didn't deserve the minutes he was playing. I'm sure Grimes wants to go somewhere where he is the man, where there is no threat someone will take his minutes. While his departure leaves us a little short on scholarship players I'm sure Self will find some complimentary pieces that should fit nicely with this team. We might want to even keep a scholarship open if we find someone like Silvio from two years ago who wants to leave high school mid year and join the team.
Glen Miller 3 years, 8 months ago
When in interviews you say that KU didn't utilize you properly and that you only got to show about 50% of what you could do........... I can't imagine Self was a fan of public statements like that. You don't get to play YOUR way when you go to a school, you have to play in a way that benefits the team. If he wanted to play the point, he shouldn't have come to Kansas. It was never really an option here. His handles to me don't translate to a PG, time will tell.
Example: the Warriors WITH Durant only got to show about 60-70% of what they can do. WITHOUT Durant, it's on full display - although it's hard to maintain that over the course of a season. That's why the argument as to whether they are better off or worse off without Durant is ridiculous. Of course they are better with KD!
Basketball combines teamwork, individual skill, substitutions, role players, and long seasons. I hope that Quentin can both personally excel in the future AND find a way to integrate into a team.
I never said the statements weren't true or didn't make sense..... I just think the timing was poor for them. If you watch the interview it was throwing shade at the University, like it was KU's fault he didn't play better. That's what I was getting at.
sorry Glen, I wasn't clear. I was agreeing with you, that if Quentin felt as though, "he only got to show about 50% of what he could do," then he could be right, however it falls short of acknowledging or accepting what the game of basketball is all about.
In a perfect world Kansas would've used him in exactly the capacity that he desired (whatever that was ...). But as we know, $h-t happens. And when it does - whether it's injuries, Dotson or Ochai performing better than expected, Vick being Vick ... or whatever ... then great players circle the wagon, protect each other, and do whatever is asked of them (Josh Jackson, Warriors, etc) for team success.
So I completely understood what you were getting at - that if Quentin inferred that KU held him back, it might be true, but it's not gonna please coaches or win fans. Was trying to enhance your comment, not refute it.
I don't remember reading interviews like that. Where did you see those?
To tell the truth, Self doesn't even need to use all 13 scholarships. He never gives significant playing time to more than 7 guys anyway. It certainly seems possible that he may be operating on fewer scholarships once the NCAA finishes its investigation in a year or two.
it's not always just about the current years team....Self also has to have 4 year players in the system getting better and learning from year 1 to year 3 or 4.....which hasn't been a strong point of his lately.......
Titus Canby 3 years, 8 months ago
Can anyone tell me... If Grimes transfers to another D1 school and sits out, is he legally required by the NCAA to stay for the following year? Or can he sit out a year, then go to the NBA (or elsewhere)?
The NCAA can't force anyone to play in the NCAA against their will. He could transfer to an NAIA (hypothetically) or play overseas if he wanted to.
I think he can enter the draft at age 20 regardless of how many years he plays in college.
Keith Gellar 3 years, 8 months ago
Very disappointed to see all the hate towards this young man. Things didn't workout for him and every one is quick to blame him when they don't even know all the details. How about Bill Self take some accountability? These players are't just someone you use and throw. Clearly, there was a gap in expectations and communication and a whole lot of mismanagement and at the end of the day- thats all on Self. Yet- the old faithful give him a pass chanting "self can do no harm".
I think there is a bit of snarky "hate" from a few who are probably just as unhappy with themselves as they are with Quentin. I think many, many more are supporting Quentin unconditionally, because he seems like a good kid who is trying to figure out his career.
However, I think nearly all of us are a bit confused, because the situation that makes the most sense FROM THE OUTSIDE would be for him to return to KU for another year. We are surprised, baffled, and curious because we've now been following this kid and his dreams for over a year.
It's not negativity as long as we understand that we all have NO CLUE what else went on - or is going on - in his world these past couple of years. Closure feels good, but we all may have to do without on this one.
Bill Lamson 3 years, 8 months ago
I agree Keith..too much harsh criticism, and not enough on the staff...which in my opinion just needs to stop recruiting OAD's entirely. They are not helping us win championships...or anyone else for that matter.
My question is, after Dotson leaves next year, who do we have on the bench or coming in next year to run the point? Did Grimes see the writing on the wall that even if he stays 2 more years at KU he still wasn't likely to play PG?
Freddie Garza 3 years, 8 months ago
How can you say that Grimes wouldn't have been given every opportunity to play as a "point guard" when Coach Self has a LONG history of recruiting AND PLAYING TOGETHER 2 point guards at the same time? I mean, it wasn't a decade ago when Devonte Graham (a point guard) was starting along side Frank Mason (aka ANOTHER point guard). Russell Robinson and Mario Chalmers, anyone?
Under Self, the 2 backcourt positions are generally interchangeable. The harsh reality is this though: Grimes is in NO way a natural point guard, and doesn't shoot the ball consistently well enough to be an NBA 2 guard (though he DOES have the size to play either position).
The guy's got a LONG ways to go to regain his previous stature and reputation out of high school, and the fact that he cuts and runs like this speaks VOLUMES about his intestinal fortitude. Just goes to show, you can hype a high school player as much as you like, it really doesn't mean a thing.
As I've said before, and it may be harsh, but I think it's true...his decision to leave is addition by subtraction.
Jerry Walker 3 years, 8 months ago
Sure, there are a lot of unknowns about Q's performance last year and his decision to xfer...but there is one elephant in the room that trumps all others.
Slow feet.
He has talent and skills and an emerging 3pt shot that will improve with age...but...unless he finds a way to drastically improve his quickness...he'll end up as a nice college player with a really slim chance of ever playing in the NBA.
It turns out that KU had two of the slowest players in Grimes and Lawson in college basketball, and man it showed all season.
Great move by Grimes and very mature as well, a wonderful talent that had a very tough freshman year who would do well with a reset in another college program instead of the Turkish League, or some other remote god-forsaken outpost.
Stuart Corder 3 years, 8 months ago
It's never pleasant to be told "you aren't good enough", especially when it happens for the first time.
It wouldn't surprise me if the first time he heard that was from HCBS this season, and then again by the NBA.
Grimes has the talent, but he hasn't put it all together yet. His decision to withdrawal from the draft and transfer away leads me to speculate that he wants to go be the biggest fish in a much smaller pond.
If the NBA is his goal, I can't figure out how sitting out a year to leave HOF Coach Self, the media showcase that is KU basketball/Big XII, and an opportunity to build upon an underwhelming (relative to the hype) Freshman year will help him reach that goal.
Alas, the young man has made his decision and we must wish him the best of luck and bid him adieu.
Coach Self has taken a beating on this board for tha amount of playing time Grimes apparently undeservedly received. However, how do you expect him to recruit the "best" players, if he doesn't show he's willing to give them the opportunity to adjust to college ball? As a coach, I believe you can only have so many Diallo's, (top recuits that don't get much playing time), and be able to attract talent in the future. These guys all want to play, and most want to play now. Players like Mason and Graham are few and far between.

Targets and Political Trust: Findings from our ESRC Project
Posted on October 27, 2016	by christinaboswell
In a slightly longer blog than usual, I set out the main findings from our recently completed ESRC project
Targets and performance indicators have become ubiquitous as techniques of governance. Governments and public service agencies have employed an array of such tools to steer, monitor and evaluate performance. Political leaders have also developed targets to signal their commitment to policy goals. Yet after more than three decades of performance measurement in public policy, most commentators agree that such tools have produced numerous adverse effects. Performance measurement techniques imply focusing on a limited range of quantitative features or goals, thereby narrowing down the focus of policy-making and political debate. They can create perverse incentives and encourage gaming. Not least, the use of such tools can erode trust within organizations, and even undermine confidence in political leaders and politics.
Given these short-comings, what explains the persistent appeal of performance measurement? And what effects do such techniques have on policy, politics, and public administration? The Politics of Monitoring was a three-year project sponsored by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC), which explored the factors shaping the use of targets and performance indicators in UK policy and politics; and examined their various effects on policy-making and public debate. The project focused on three policy areas: immigration, climate change, and defence procurement. Here I present some of the main findings of the project.
TARGETS AND INDICATORS AS AN ATTEMPT TO PRODUCE TRUST
Most analyses of targets and indicators suggest that they are favoured as a means of steering or controlling performance. Such techniques emerge as a response to the outsourcing of public services to semi-autonomous agencies and the private sector. Performance measurement is a means of enabling governments to govern 'at a distance'. We suggest that this is only part of the story. Building on Michael Power's work on auditing, we show how targets and indicators have an important symbolic role: they act as a 'ritual of verification' (Power) to those seeking to steer performance. They offer symbolic reassurance to the authors of targets and their audiences. Targets establish clear thresholds to guide decisions about bestowing and withholding trust. This helps assuage the anxiety of those attempting to steer policy-making and implementation. The use of performance measurement also helps bestow credibility on organizations and their political leaders, shoring up confidence in their capacity to control policy-making and implementation. In this way, targets and indicators help address problems of trust in the dealings between political leaders and those tasked with elaborating and implementing policy.
We also show how targets have an important outward-facing function. They are adopted to demonstrate to the public that the government is improving public services, and delivering on its pledges. Targets create an especially robust and precise tool of accountability. The appeal of this tool is particularly strong given the widely observed crisis of political disenchantment. The allure of targets thus lies not just in their promise of steering public administration, but also in their capacity to address problems of declining public trust in government.
Targets therefore have a dual function: they are adopted to address problems of trust between political leaders and their administrators; and to create public trust in the goals and conduct of political leaders. How far have targets succeeded in producing trust at each of these levels?
THE EFFECTS OF TARGETS ON PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION
The dual function of targets described above can create a number of organizational problems. In our study of asylum targets under the Labour government between 2000-2010, we found that technical targets designed to steer Home Office performance lacked political resonance, prompting politicians to resort to more politically appealing targets, notably Tony Blair's prominent target of halving asylum applications. Yet these more politically compelling targets created various pressures and tensions in the Home Office. Targets aimed at mobilising public support were not well designed to address organizational problems (see Boswell 2015 for a full account, or this blog for a shorter version).
In our analysis of targets on defence procurement and asylum, we also found evidence of widescale 'decoupling': a gap between formal compliance with targets, and informal organisational practice, which deviated from the underlying rationale informing the targets. Literature on decoupling suggests that such forms of reinterpretation or subversion will be limited where organizations are subjected to clear, precise and robustly monitored targets. Yet in the 2000s, both the Ministry of Defence and the Home Office were successful in decoupling their informal practice from formal compliance with targets. Ultimately, it took highly intrusive political intervention by No.10 in the mid-2000s to bring about comprehensive reform of Home Office and UKBA practices. This achieved a closer alignment between formal and informal practices – although at a severe cost to organizational morale and trust between political leaders and civil servants.
In the Ministry of Defence, by contrast, No.10 was unable to impose the top-down reforms required to meet targets. This partly reflected the lower political salience of defence procurement. Asylum had become such a high profile public issue by the early 2000s that the Labour government felt its credibility was dependent on being seen to get a grip on asylum numbers. Defence was never similarly high profile. Moreover, No.10 and the Treasury felt they had less traction over the Ministry of Defence, given the technical complexity of procurement issues, as well as the distinct culture guiding the organization. You can read more about decoupling in the MoD and Home Office in Boswell and Fleming 2015.
IMPLEMENTING TARGETS
It has long been observed that policies can get lost in implementation. We explored some of the problems of implementation by comparing how targets were appropriated and applied in the areas of climate change, defence procurement and immigration.
In Boswell and Rodrigues (2016), we developed John Kingdon's idea of 'multiple streams' to try to understand differential implementation across sectors. We suggested that implementation is most likely to be successful where the policy emanating from central government converges with organizational constructions of problems, and where such policies are sustained by strong political commitment from the centre.
We developed a model of different implementation scenarios, based on combinations of these conditions. We applied the model to the case of targets in our three policy areas between 2000-2010. CO2 targets took the form of 'bottom-up' implementation, where policies matched organisational problem constructions, but there was limited political commitment from the centre. The Departments for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) and of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) were keen to enhance their leverage by foregrounding the targets. Implementation of defence procurement targets, as we saw, was characterised by widespread decoupling, with the MoD resisting an approach it felt did not address organizational problems, and No.10 lacking sufficient political commitment to impose compliance. Asylum targets initially saw similar decoupling, but intrusive intervention from No.10 led to coercive implementation, which eventually produced an alignment of organizational and political goals.
The analysis showed how organisations can shift between modes of implementation over time, responding to changes in organisational problems and central political commitment to the policy. You can read our article here, or have a look at our policy briefing for Discover Society.
TARGETS AND PUBLIC TRUST
If targets have generally failed to steer public administration in the way intended, how well have they succeeded in building public trust? Targets promise to provide an especially precise and rigorous mechanism of accountability. But our 65 interviews with political actors suggest that targets rarely bring political dividends to their authors. For a start, they often set overly ambitious goals, creating clear political risks. Even when targets are met, they rarely yield the expected media attention or rise in public satisfaction. Our respondents stressed how disappointed Labour politicians and officials were that the media was not interested in reporting on successful targets.
This is confirmed by our analysis of media coverage of asylum and net migration targets between 2002-2014. We found that press reporting is largely impervious to data demonstrating performance to target. Instead, trust in political leaders is grounded in more impressionistic cues such as the perceived integrity of politicians. Thus although Blair's government was able to meet its target of halving asylum applications, press reporting was largely sceptical of the government's motives and methods of meeting the target. By contrast, Cameron's inability to meet his ambitious net migration target was widely put down to external and intractable obstacles beyond his control.
The analysis challenges mainstream accountability models, according to which public support is based on an appraisal of the performance or conduct of politicians. Instead, it suggests that the types of judgements underpinning political support and trust are based on more impressionistic beliefs about the values, integrity and authenticity of those asserting claims. (This research is forthcoming – please see our project website for updates.)
TARGETS AND POLITICAL DEBATE
Targets may have a limited or even negative impact on public trust. Yet they can have a number of other, often anticipated, effects on political debate. One of these concerns the effects of quantitative measures on the way issues are framed. The use of numbers to describe policy problems and goals can carry particular authority in political debate. Statistical measures are associated with impartiality, rigour and precision. They can be embraced as offering particularly robust tools for holding political leaders to account.
Such quantitative framings also carry strong appeal to journalists, offering compelling and authoritative data, and a means of exposing government transgressions. And even where targets and indicators are contested, they can still provide political opponents with an excellent tool for critiquing a government's record. So opposition parties end up inadvertently buying in to targets, even if they opposed them. At the same time, quantitative targets or indicators provide very simplifying and often distorting descriptions of policy problems. In order to quantify policy issues, we need to classify the entities involved as discrete and equivalent units. Such abstractions can compress important nuances and variations. These simplified classifications can also prove to be very rigid: once statistical categories are created, it may be difficult to adjust or retract them. For these reasons, the authors of targets can become locked in to quantitative formulations of policy problems.
We discuss some of these questions in a co-authored chapter on how targets constrain policy-making. You can also read about the distorting effects of targets in two of our working papers. Yearley and Rodrigues (2016) explore how targets on C02 emissions were effectively 'blackboxed': they became taken for granted as ways of framing the problem, thereby removing them from scientific and political scrutiny. Boswell's (2016) paper on the effects of the net migration target discusses how the target influenced political debate through a 'classification' and a 'measurement' effect. The argument is also summarised in this blog, and in an article for the Herald.

2002 Jeep Liberty Review
John Pearley Huffman Editor
With President Ford's golden retriever long dead, the name "Liberty" was available for the taking. So Jeep has put it on what amounts to, in terms of relative "newness," as the most all-new vehicle in its history. Everything in this trucklet, from structure, suspension, and drivetrain to the plant in Toledo, Ohio, where it's built is either new or at least new to Jeep, and the whole is a huge advance on the Cherokee it replaces.
Being better than the Cherokee was a pretty low hurdle to clear. After all, that pioneering SUV entered production as a 1984 model (when Renault still owned AMC and, hence, Jeep) and only cursorily updated throughout its production. By 2001 (hell, by 1991) it was archaic and outclassed by the competition in terms of refinement and efficiency.
Still while familiarity breeds contempt, no vehicle stays in production for 18 years if it doesn't have something compelling in its favor. And for the Cherokee that was an authentically Jeep off-road ability and everyday practicality.
The question about the four-door Liberty isn't whether it's better than the Cherokee it replaces, but if it can walk the same fine line that machine did between a rugged heritage and the lives most buyers really live.
Jeep in and out
2002 Jeep Liberty
What's the favorite word in press releases from Jeep PR? Trademark. Oops, sorry, make that Jeep® PR. That obsession with preserving Jeep's image has led to a lawsuit with GM over the latest Hummer and to the Liberty's Jeepier-than-thou appearance.
Of course the Liberty was going to feature a grille with seven slats, but the Liberty goes further by grabbing styling cues from both the '97 Dakar and '98 Jeepster concepts. It's basically the Dakar's upright proportions wedded to the Jeepster's bug-eyed exaggeration of the Wrangler's nose. Except for fussiness on the hood between the headlight blisters and too-busy taillights, the design is remarkably attractive, contemporary and obviously Jeep. It's not just another SUV box -- it's its own unique box with really big fender bulges, and scant front and rear overhangs.
Of the exterior details, among the nicest are the oversize door handles and fluted side-view mirrors. While the headlights appear to be round from many angles, they are in fact slightly ovoid compound units. Base Liberty "Sport" models get fender flares and trim in black plastic, while the upmarket Liberty Limited (which also happens to be pretty much the definition of parole) is finished monochromatically.
Under the skin rests Jeep's third generation of "uniframe" vehicles following the Cherokee and Grand Cherokee. Uniframe essentially means a pretty beefy unibody with elements of a traditional ladder frame welded into the structure. What results is the stiffest structure of any Jeep (Grand Cherokee included) and a solid platform upon which to mount the suspension. And it's different for Jeep suspension.
The rear suspension is, no surprise, a solid axle on three links and coil springs. Up front is what's really different -- Jeep's first honest independent front suspension (the swing axles offered on early Wagoneers in the Sixties don't count). Built with thick cast-iron A-arms and coil springs over gas-charged shocks, the system looks rugged enough to withstand a direct artillery hit and yet offers a significant gain in on-road suppleness and responsiveness. In light off-roading it seems effective, but it will take the extreme antics of dedicated Jeep fanatics to determine if ultimate off-road prowess has been compromised.
That suspension is controlled by a new rack-and-pinion steering box (again a Jeep first) that is both precise and demanding of much more effort than the typical over-boosted Jeep system. Braking is handled by front discs and rear drums with ABS optional.
A much better runner
While the Liberty's structure and suspension represent real progress for Jeep, it's the new V-6 engine that will power most of them that impresses most of all.
Base power for the cheapest Liberty comes from a version of the 2.4-liter, DOHC, 16-valve four Chrysler mounts transversely in its Chrysler Sebring and Dodge Stratus front-drive sedans. It may be the first multi-valve engine offered in a Jeep, but producing just 150 horsepower and 165 pound-feet of torque, it strains to contend with the lightest, two-wheel drive Liberty's 3648 pounds of heft. At least at the start of production, all four-cylinder Liberty models will be stirred by five-speed manual transmissions.
At least until gas hits $4.00 per gallon, the vast majority of Libertys will leave Toledo with the 3.7-liter V-6 under their hoods. A truly new engine which shares elements of its reciprocating assembly and some critical dimensions with the 4.7-liter SOHC V-8 used in the Grand Cherokee, the 90-degree, iron-block, aluminum-head SOHC V-6 is smoothed by both a split-journal crankshaft and a centrally-mounted counter-rotating balance shaft. DCX has big plans for this engine, as it also becomes the standard powerplant in the 2002 full-size Dodge Ram pickup.
In the Liberty the 3.7-liter is rated at 210 horsepower and a healthy 235 lb-ft of peak torque at 4000 rpm. That's particularly good in light of the two-valve combustion chambers, a forgiving 9.1:1 compression ratio and the lack of trick variable valve timing schemes. Compared to, say, the Acura MDX's 3.5-liter, DOHC, 24-valve VTEC-equipped V-6 which belts out 240 horsepower and 245 lb-ft of twist, the Liberty's V-6 may not seem initially impressive. But it's at least as smooth as the Acura motor and it sits in a vehicle with a sticker price at least $10,000 cheaper.
While a manual transmission will be offered with the V-6 eventually, for now the only gearbox is the 45RFE split second gear four-speed automatic which was first seen in the Grand Cherokee. It's a perfectly acceptable transmission that integrates well with either the part-time Command Trac dual-range transfer case or the full-time Selec Trac system. Disappointingly, no manual shifting feature such as Chrysler's AutoStick is offered.
What North America doesn't get (despite the fact that all Liberty production, including right-hand-drive models, will come from Toledo) is the 2.6-liter, turbodiesel four in which the rest of the world should revel. While the diesel's 140 horses might seem modest, the promise of its 253 lb-ft of torque and exceptional fuel mileage makes it a tantalizing prospect in this summer of escalating gas prices. All that low-end grunt should make it the best of the three engines for crawling off-road, too.
Big where it counts
The Liberty has the exterior looks SUV buyers crave, but it's the interior that does most of the work for families and urbanites.
With its 104.3-inch wheelbase, the Liberty is up 2.9 inches in that dimension over the Cherokee and at 174.4 inches of overall length, it has a 6.9-inch edge there. But where the space advantage is most obvious is in height -- at 73.2 inches the Liberty is a significant 9.2 inches taller than the SUV it replaces and the passengers all sit bolt upright to take advantage of it. Add to that, the spare tire mounts externally to the swing-out rear tailgate on all Libertys and the interior room available is exceptionally useful.
But it's not always the easiest to get into. The front doors open expansively enough, but the rear doors are cut over the rear wheelwells dramatically and that leaves the room for entry foreshortened. And though it's nice that the spare isn't crowding the interior, it'll be tough for a smaller person to reach across that tire to put groceries in through the open rear glass (and unpleasant for many of us larger people).
The interior design itself is spectacular. The dash features vents that mimic the headlight shapes, a hooded binnacle under which sits big easy-to-read beige-faced instruments, and a center section containing the audio and ventilation system controls. It's good in the Sport, but particularly handsome when finished in the Limited Edition's "satin chrome" faux metal trim. There's a lot of plastic in the interior, but it's all better grained, better finished and more attractively assembled than in any other Jeep -- and most other Chrysler products.
Complementing the dash are seats that aren't lavish, but supportive enough and a nicely detailed steering wheel with redundant audio controls and scads of tie-downs, pockets, cupholders and flotsam catchers. There are SUVs with more interior room, and SUVs with more lavish luxury appointments, but there are no SUVs with a more elegantly designed interior at any price.
With prices starting just south of $18,000 and mainstream V-6 4x4s going out the door at about $23,000, the Liberty is priced to compete against small SUVs like the Ford Escape, Toyota RAV4 and Honda CR-V. But all those are car-based machines that don't offer, for instance, a low-range transfer case option while the Liberty is equipped for true off-roading. The Liberty doesn't just have SUV appearance but real off-road ability.
If the new Toledo plant can produce quality to match the design, the Liberty stands a chance of matching the Cherokee for length of production life.

In 2011, God led our family to Toronto. We came, counting on two or three years of adventure. The kids would learn French. We'd live in the city. For a little while, we would more fully live into the vision of Psalm 67, which the pastor had read at our wedding: "May God be gracious to us and bless us and make his face to shine upon us, that your way may be known on earth, your saving power among all nations. Let the peoples praise you, O God; let all the peoples praise you!" We left, not knowing what was ahead. As I've come to understand, the life of faith is best understood by acts of memory. We can't ever really know what God is doing when he moves us out. We don't know what the future holds when he says, "go." I think of the Israelites as they traveled through the wilderness, following the pillar of cloud by day that stopped and settled at whim. They were not planning life, but following it. Following Him. I wonder how many days it felt that they had just gotten comfortable when the cloud began to move and they'd had to hurriedly pack it all up for another day's journey of uncertainty.
Six years ago, the cloud moved, and the seven of us moved with it. We left the suburbs of Chicago for the city of Toronto. I can remember the first weekend in our first rental house. It was the hottest May on record, and we had no air conditioning. I cried when Ryan left for work on Monday.
Our first summer in Toronto, I started to think about writing more personally, even about starting a blog. The cloud was moving, we were moving with it, and I wanted to keep record of the journey. I wanted a story to tell the children, wanted to give the gift of memory that the Israelites had sorely neglected.
I began writing about that journey here.
Eventually, a blog became a book. And a book became another book.
A gift and a joy.
Today is the release day of Keeping Place, this second book. In it, I've kept my own story: places I've lived, people I've lost. And most importantly, I've followed the longing for home to ask where it leads.
That cloud leads into the arms of Christ.
A wandering Aramean was my father.
He went down into Egypt and sojourned there, and the Egyptians treated us harshly.
But the LORD brought us out of Eygpt with a mighty hand.
He brought us into this land, which flows with milk and honey.
This is a song to make sense of life's lament and longing, peril and promise. And it's the song we'll be singing when we fall into the sojourning, suffering arms of Jesus.

Томас Эдвин (Том) Микс (, урожд. Томас Хезикия Микс, ;  — ) — американский актёр вестернов эпохи немого кино.

Биография
В возрасте 18 лет записался добровольцем в американскую армию, но не принял участие в шедшей тогда Испано-американской войне. Впервые снялся в кино в 1909 году. До 1917 работал на голливудскую студию Selig Polyscope, где создал свой фирменный образ ковбоя. За этот период Микс принял участие более чем в ста фильмах. После закрытия Selig Polyscope он вместе со своей женой, актрисой Викторией Форди, подписал контракт с Fox Film Corporation, где проработал ещё несколько лет. В 1930-е Микс снялся в нескольких звуковых фильмах. В 1940 году погиб в автокатастрофе, налетев на своем Cord 812 на бетонное ограждение.

Наследие и признание

За свою менее чем тридцатилетнюю карьеру Том Микс успел сняться более чем в трёхстах фильмах. Он также числится режиссёром более чем ста картин и сценаристом восьмидесяти пяти. По крайней мере 250 из этих лент (по подсчётам IMDb) принадлежат к жанру вестерн. Фильмы с участием Микса были известны, в частности, трюками, которые актёр выполнял сам на своём коне Тони. Образ, созданный Миксом, был чрезвычайно известен в США. Актёра называли «королём ковбоев», он упоминается во многих позднейших произведениях массовой культуры, включая появление портрета актёра на обложке легендарного альбома Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band группы The Beatles.

На Голливудской «Аллее славы» есть звезда, открытая в честь Микса. В Дьюи, штат Оклахома, существует музей, посвящённый актёру.

Слово «драхма» (, ) происходит от  «драхма, мера веса = 4.366 г., монета = 6 оболам», первоначально в значении «столько, сколько можно держать в горсти», далее от  «хватать» (см.  «горсть»).. Его появление относится ко временам, когда средством денежного обмена в Древней Греции были металлические четырёхгранные прутики — оболы ( — «вертел»), шесть штук которых, зажатые в горсть, и составляли драхму. В свою очередь 100 драхм составляли мину, а 60 мин — 1 талант, самую крупную древнегреческую счётную и весовую единицу. Таким образом, 1 талант был равен 60 минам, 6000 драхм, 36 000 оболов.

В Энциклопедическом словаре Брокгауза и Ефрона приводится другая версия происхождения слова «драхма»: от ассирийского «дараг-мана», что означает «шестидесятая мины», поскольку первоначально драхма могла составлять не 1⁄100, а 1⁄60 мины.

Как денежная единица драхма первоначально представляла собою слиток серебра. В виде монеты её начали чеканить в VI веке до н. э. и прекратили, когда Греция находилась в составе Римской Империи — в период унификации имперского денежного обращения.

Символ драхмы в качестве счётной (денежной) единицы наиболее распространенной системы счисления Древней Греции — аттической — представлял собой цифру «один» (I) с дополнительным горизонтальным штрихом (). Включен в стандарт Юникод под кодом U+10142.

Весовая единица алхимии и фармацевтики

В период расцвета Древнего Рима драхма как единица веса была включена в древнеримскую систему единиц измерения, а в 1140 году после выхода фармакопеи «Антидотарий», составленной ректором Медицинской школы Салерно Николаем, стала одной из базовых величин аптекарской системы весов, сохранив (а в некоторых станах сохраняя) своё значение до введения метрической системы мер.

Символ драхмы как единицы измерения алхимии, фармации и фармацевтики происходит от иератического начертания (упрощенные скорописные иероглифы) древнеегипетских цифр и напоминает кириллическую курсивную букву «з». Включен в стандарт Юникод под кодом U+0292.

Современные денежные единицы: драхма, дирхам, дирам, драм

Чеканка драхмы была возобновлена в начале XIX века вскоре после провозглашения независимости Греции. Она была введена в обращение в соответствии с указом первого короля нового независимого государства Оттона I, подписанного 8 февраля 1832 года. С 1 января 2002 года была начата замена греческой драхмы на евро. Символ современной валюты представляет собой написанное курсивом сокращение слова Δραχμή. Включен в стандарт Unicode под кодом U+20AF.

Наряду с денарием драхма была одной из самых распространенных монет Античности. Она имела хождение не только на территориях, традиционно находившихся под влиянием древнегреческой культуры (Восточное Средиземноморье), но и на Ближнем Востоке, а также в Средней Азии, оказав существенное влияние на формирование местых денежных систем. В частности, от слова «драхма» происходят названия нескольких современных денежных единиц: дирхам, драм и дирам.

В настоящее время дирхам является национальной валютой Объединённых Арабских Эмиратов и Марокко, а также разменной денежной единицей Иордании, Ливии и Катара; дирам — разменная монета Таджикистана; драм — национальная денежная единица Армении. Все они, кроме армянского драма, не имеют самостоятельных символов. Для их краткого обозначения используются обычные сокращения на арабском, английском или таджикском языках, хотя, например, в ОАЭ именно сокращение названия национальной валюты на английском языке (Dh) официально имеет статус символа.

Символ драма был утвержден Национальным банком Республики Армения в 2001 году и представляет собой перечёркнутую двумя горизонтальными линиями заглавную букву Դ, которая встречается лишь в армянском алфавите и с которой начинается слово «драм» (). В настоящее время рассматривается вопрос о включении символа в стандарт Unicode.

Cricket World Cup: Nab a huge price on England beating Australia
If you're a fan of cricket and think the upcoming World Cup is the perfect time to open a betting account, then Ladbrokes should be your first and last stop.
Anyone signing up for a Ladbrokes account can get a whopping 8/1 on England beating Australia in their opening match of the tournament, something that the rest of the bookie's customers can only back at a measly 2s.
Under new leadership, this England side carry real hope of changing what has been a historic lack of success at the 50-over tournament, thanks to a vibrant young squad with the potential to play some exciting cricket.
With Eoin Morgan as skipper, the likes of Moeen Ali, Jos Buttler, James Taylor and Joe Root will look to pile on the runs with the bat, while Steven Finn and Chris Woakes join experienced duo James Anderson and Stuart Broad in the pace attack.
Woakes and Finn have been in particularly fine form in the lead up to the tournament, and they will likely be key to England's hopes of bowling out a formidable Australian batting lineup.
With heavy-hitting pair David Warner and Aaron Finch looking to launch from ball one, England must be at their best in the field from the outset if they are to keep the host nation quiet.
Although the Three Lions have lost 13 of their last 15 ODIs against the old enemy Down Under, another positive for Morgan's side is that hardly any of the current squad will have experienced the pain of losing so much to Australia in recent times.
Should the promise of a different outcome at a World Cup be kept by England, then beating Australia is the best way to start, which will have new Ladbrokes customers grinning from ear to ear.

Terrorist plan targeted Netanyahu and Canadians, security officials say
By JTA

A senior Canadian security delegation visiting Jerusalem was targeted by an eastern Jerusalem man who was arrested for an attempted assassination attack on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Jerusalem Mayor Nir Barkat.
Muhammad Jamal Rashdeh, 30, an Israeli-Arab citizen, who was working for a Syrian terrorist cell, was arrested in April and indicted last week, the Israel Security Agency (ISA), or Shin Bet, announced for the first time on Tuesday after a gag order on the case was lifted. Two other unnamed members of the terror cell were later arrested, according to the ISA.
In addition to targeting high-ranking Israeli officials and the Canadian delegation, Rashdeh also planned to attack buildings that belong to the U.S. Consulate in Jerusalem, which is now the embassy.
The cell also planned to bring a terrorist into Israel from Jordan to help advance the attacks, according to the ISA.
Rashdeh, on instruction from a terrorist in Syria that the ISA did not name, carried out advance operations to gather intelligence on possible targets. Rashdeh has spent time in an Israeli prison for what the ISA called "terrorist offences."

Q: firebase getting data issue with android studio i´m trying to get data from my firebase database when a user log in successfully, but i can´t do it with the code that I have, let me paste you my code:
login class:
AdminFirebase.loadAdmin(task.getResult().getUser());

AdminFirebase class:
private static DatabaseReference adminRef= ref.child("Administradores");
public static void loadAdmin(FirebaseUser user){

    DatabaseReference userRef=adminRef.child(user.getUid());
    userRef.addListenerForSingleValueEvent(new ValueEventListener() {
        @Override
        public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
            Administrador administrador=dataSnapshot.getValue(Administrador.class);
            Sesion.admin=administrador;
        }
        @Override
        public void onCancelled(DatabaseError databaseError) {

        }

});

I already debug my code and when the code its on the userRef.addListener as you can see on the image, all the data its according with the database, but when I try to execute the next code it skip until the finish of the method,so it seems that something its wrong on that line, could somebody help me with this?

Top Leftist News Anchor PRAISES Tucker Carlson In Stunning Interview: 'Tucker's Doing Great'
MSNBC's Rachel Maddow offered some well-deserved praise for one of her top competitors on Sunday, and it surprisingly came in the form of positive feedback about Fox News's Tucker Carlson.
"Like, Tucker's doing great right now," Maddow told Vanity Fair. "But look at Tucker's career. The first show I worked on was his 11 o'clock show on MSNBC that nobody remembers. But he was always kicking around the business and has always been talented. It just—this turned out to be his moment."
This is a big compliment from someone on the exact opposite side of the political spectrum as Tucker. Carlson's professionalism and first-class reporting have always been respected by those who understand the business, and millions across the nation watch and support his primetime show.
Tucker gave Maddow her first opportunity in television back in 2005 — when she was a panelist on his MSNBC show 'Tucker' — before the network had fully doubled down on the woke politics, we see from the outlet today.
Maddow also recalled running into Tucker at an event adding, "it was really nice to see him."
DESANTIS RIPS REMOVED SOROS DA WHO FAILED TO ENFORCE ABORTION AND CHILD SEX LAWS: 'NOT SOMETHING THAT'S ACCEPTABLE'
She avoided talking about politics in the interview and instead focused on the competitive relationship she has with other news hosts, such as Carlson.
In the past, she also offered a similar evaluation of Fox News' Sean Hannity, The Hill reported.
"If you think about baseball players, who are extremely competitive and who are fighting to win and who have rivalries, and some of those rivalries are bitter rivalries, that doesn't mean you don't study the pitching technique of their star pitcher." Maddow said.
"It doesn't mean you don't appreciate whatever they're doing in terms of, you know, where they put their shortstop in order to give them a better defense," she added. "There's a sort of, like, respecting the game, in terms of people who are doing well and people who are good at it."
Carlson is a master practitioner of his craft. Even if one disagrees with his point of view — as Maddow does — one can't knock his ability to present the news in a compelling and interesting way. News Anchors of all stripes would do well to learn from Tucker, who respects his audience and the art of news reporting as a means to uncover the truth.

Smell: Sweet and minty with creamy undertones, like cookies.
Relieves: Stress, depression or anxiety.
Positives: Great strain for when you want to be lazy, but don't want to feel lazy. Paired nicely with a 5 hour binge of Master of None.
Negatives: This was a two pack of prerolls, wish I had more. My first joint burned unevenly, but realized I hadn't loosened it up before.
Other notes (appearance, etc.): Love having strains like this around. They make you happy & silly, but you don't feel stupid or impaired.

As featured in Global Banking and Finance Review.
When you think about inspirational female leaders or role models, names such as Malala Yousafzai, Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Michelle Obama, spring to mind.
But for me, I just can't get Melanie Griffiths in Working Girl out of my head, strutting her stuff in those 1980's shoulder pads! That film was pretty ground-breaking, addressing previously unspoken topics such as equal rights for women in the workplace, feminism, and the wage gap; topics that are still relevant today.
Although twenty years on, have things changed much for the role of women in the workplace? From where I'm standing as a female Creative Director, women are still striving to be treated equally. So actually, things haven't really moved on and efforts to redress this balance are moving all too slowly.
In 2016, Forbes cited that women made up only 11% of creative directors worldwide. Looking at current statistics, over 2 million people are employed in the creative industry in the UK, but there is still a glaring gender imbalance faced by the entire sector with just 12%-16% of creative directors across design, concept and film being female.*
We talk about the tide turning but is it really? And when? What do we do about it?
The Importance of Female Role Models
The next statistic from Forbes is one that resonates the most with me and is something we absolutely need to address: 88% of young women say they lack female role models in the industry.
I have worked hard to become one of that 12%-16% who can write 'Creative Director' in my email signature and therefore feel that this role comes with a huge responsibility to be a role model, to be someone that other aspiring female directors can relate to, learn from and be encouraged by. It is my duty, and the duty of all females in the same position, to look over my shoulder and encourage women to follow me rather than forging ahead and leaving them in my wake.
Realise the Dream
To stay at the top and thrive, there are a number of factors that I adhere to:
Be confident in your ability
Embrace what YOU can bring to the table and enhance the positive differences.
Have empathy
Encourage team members to feel safe and confident in their own abilities.
Build a great team around you
Your team is largely your key to success, so it is essential to take time to choose the right people to support you. In my experience, female led teams are often more loyal as they thrive on the support and empathy they are shown.
An article from the Harvard Kennedy School cites that 'Previous research has shown that mixed gender teams are more generous and egalitarian, and that teams with a larger percentage of women perform better by building meaningful relationships and creating successful work processes.'
Be heard but don't shout
Strike a balance between being heard and being too confident. You have an opinion and it matters but you can cut through the noise rather than shout above it.
An equal partnership
On a personal level, women are, of course, traditionally disadvantaged if they have to take time out of their career to start a family. Challenge the perception that this automatically pushes you back down the career ladder and encourage partners to become a more equal co-parent. Sharing the responsibility will afford you the opportunity to pursue your career, and with less guilt.
Old boys rule
There are definitely hurdles which continue to make it difficult for women to get to the top and the most evident one in my experience is that despite 'times changing' and women starting to bridge that gaping male/female divide, there is still an old boys network at play.
As I have moved up this male dominated career ladder, it has definitely been a challenge to be taken seriously. At times, being female has hampered my chance of winning work and I have definitely been treated differently to men in the process. A particular anecdote from my career highlights this reality – when I was leading a design team, despite my professional, calm nature and passionate yet measured opinions, I was still referred to by the all-male board as 'Feisty Gayle'. My rather more ego-driven and loud male counterpart was just 'assertive'. Why is that?
Accept and adapt
It does take courage, grit and determination to succeed at the top as a female creative director, and to earn the respect you deserve, but the advice I have given in this article is for any individual who wants to be successful in business or who wants to lead a team.
As a female leader, take the time to encourage women in all sectors to believe they can get to the top, if this is what they really want, and lead by example. Let's face it, there isn't much of a historical framework in place to refer to but, bit by bit, we can build one.
As an aspiring female director, and if you really want to make it, don't fight the system as it stands. Acknowledge it and do something about it as it's not going anywhere fast. It is important to take stock, remind yourself you are not a man, and believe that you can succeed as a female.
And you really don't have to wear a 1980's power suit to be taken seriously in business – we have at least moved away from that – unless you want to of course!

To manage your chat widgets and view their HTML embed code, go to LibChat > Chat Widgets.
Every chat widget you create is saved so that you can customize it over time. That means you don't need to completely start from scratch if you need to change your widget's fallback options, appearance, etc. To manage your widgets, click on the appropriate icon in the Actions column.
Want to use an existing widget as a template for a new widget? Click on the Copy Widget icon to create a copy of that widget. You can then customize the copy without affecting the original.
To make changes to the widget's options and appearance, click on the Edit Widget icon. When you edit a widget, the changes will automatically be reflected everywhere the widget is embedded.
To delete a widget, click on the Delete Widget icon. This will permanently remove the widget; if the widget is still embedded on a webpage, it will no longer display.
Each widget you create will have its own unique embed code. This HTML code can be added to any webpage where you want to make your chat service available. For example, you could embed your reference department's chat widget on your library homepage, and a personal chat widget in your LibGuides profile box.
A <div> tag, which is what positions your widget on the page.
For in-page and button pop-out widgets, where you place this <div> tag is where your widget will appear.
For slide-out tab widgets, however, the chat widget's CSS code will reposition the <div> element to the appropriate side of the page. In that sense, you could put the <div> tag for slide-out widgets someplace out of the way, such as your page footer.
