Michelle Obama uses commencement speech to attack Trump, border wall, without naming names
In this polarized season, it seems that leftists believe it is fine to hijack graduation ceremonies, which should be about the graduates, to score political points. Matt Damon, for instance, thought it fine to attack Donald Trump, Brexit, and bankers, while plugging Elizabeth Warren, while dropping an s-bomb on the assembled grads and parents at MIT.
By comparison, Michelle Obama was the soul of restraint speaking to the graduates of the City University of New York.
She made a thinly veiled reference to Trump, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, by saying "some folks" don't value the diversity that City College embodies.
"They seem to view our diversity as a threat to be contained rather than as a resource to be tapped," Obama said. "They tell us to be afraid of those who are different, to be suspicious of those with whom we disagree.
"They act as if name-calling is an acceptable substitute for thoughtful debate, as if anger and intolerance should be our default state rather than the optimism and openness that have always been the engine of our progress."
Of course, Donald Trump never said any of these things, but then again, Michelle was slandering all conservatives.
And the First Lady, who lives behind a wall recently augmented, added:
"…here in America, we don't give in to our fears. We don't build up walls to keep people out because we know that our greatness has always depended on contributions from people who were born elsewhere but sought out this country and made it their home."
No distinction between those who come her legally and those who violate our borders.
Ads far as I can remember the practice of hijacking graduations first became nationally prominent when Hillary Rodham graduated from Wellesley College in 1969, and, speaking to the graduates, attacked Republican Senator Ed Brooke, the first post-Reconstruction black senator, over the Vietnam War. For this, she was rewarded with a spread in Life Magazine, then the largest weekly magazine.


I paint whenever inspiration kicks in; and when it does, the visual picture becomes very clear in my mind. But even though I create based in the inspiration, I try not to get too carried away with a concept without thinking the impact it may have in others. Really love that my creations end up in somebody's personal space; and hope that they can grow into the hearts and soul of whoever enjoys them. It is ok for me to hear the tastes and preferences of the persons who like, have, or would like to have my paintings because, in a way, they become part of the inspiration process. At the end of the day you can say that I paint "my way", but certainly the constructive input makes a good painting…better.

Q: Azure SQL DB with AAD - is there a way to get read-only access I am looking for a way to sign in into Azure SQL DB with my AAD credentials, but I only want to have read-only access.
First try

*

*Opened Azure SQL Server Access Control (IAM) tab.

*Added myself a Managed Applications Reader role.

*This doesn't allow me to connecto to the DB with the following error.

Cannot connect to abc.database.windows.net.

------------------------------
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

One or more errors occurred. (mscorlib)
------------------------------

AADSTS900021: Requested tenant identifier '00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000' is not valid.
Tenant identifiers may not be an empty GUID.
Trace ID: xxx
Correlation ID: yyy
Timestamp: 2020-04-09 08:57:20Z (System.Data)

Second try

*

*Opened Azure SQL Server Active Directory Admin.

*Added myself as an admin.

*This allows me to connect now with AAD credentials, but I have all the permissions I am scared to have on a prod DB now.

Is this achievable?

A: Yes, but you'll need to assign another user as SQL AAD admin.
Login as that user, and run:
CREATE USER [your.user@domain.com] FROM EXTERNAL PROVIDER;
EXEC sp_addrolemember 'db_datareader','your.user@domain.com';

This will create a contained user in the database for your AAD user, and assign the data reader role to them.
You can also grant read access to single tables etc. with standard T-SQL.

Q: Python file delimited with double tabs I'm new to python and am working on a script to read from a file that is delimited by double tabs (except for the first row wich is delimited by single tabs"
I tried the following:
f = open('data.csv', 'rU')
source = list(csv.reader(f,skipinitialspace=True, delimiter='\t'))

        for row in source:
          print row

The thing is that csv.reader won't take a two character delimeter.  Is there a good way to make a double-tab delimeter work?
The output currently looks like this:
['2011-11-28 10:25:44', '', '2011-11-28 10:33:00', '', 'Showering', '']
['2011-11-28 10:34:23', '', '2011-11-28 10:43:00', '', 'Breakfast', '']
['2011-11-28 10:49:48', '', '2011-11-28 10:51:13', '', 'Grooming','']

There should only be three columns of data, however, it is picking up the extra empty fields because of the double tabs that separate the fields.

A: If performance is not an issue here , would you be fine with this quick and hacky solution.
f = open('data.csv', 'rU')
source = list(csv.reader(f,skipinitialspace=True, delimiter='\t'))

    for row in source:
      print row[::2]

row[::2] does a stride on list row for indexes that are multiples of 2. For the above mentioned output, index striding by an offset (here its 2) is one way to go!

A: How much do you know about your data? Is it ever possible that an entry contains a double-tab? If not, I'd abandon the csv module and use the simple approach:
with open('data.csv') as data:
    for line in data:
        print line.strip().split('\t\t')

The csv module is nice for doing tricky things, like determining when a delimiter should split a string, and when it shouldn't because it is part of an entry. For example, say we used spaces as delimiters, and we had a row such as:
"this" "is" "a test"

We surround each entry with quotes, giving three entries. Clearly, if we use the approach of splitting on spaces, we'll get
['"this"', '"is"', '"a', 'test"']

which is not what we want. The csv module is useful here. But if we can guarantee that whenever a space shows up, it is a delimiter, then there's no need to use the power of the csv module. Just use str.split and call it a day.

JT's new venture takes him from d**k-in-a-box to decoupage.
By Diane DeSantis·	 6/5/2012, 5:54 p.m.
Should we label Justin Timberlake a Renaissance Man or an over-achiever? The singer, actor, businessman, and philanthropist has just added home decor curator to his resume—Timberlake and his long time interior designer and friend Estee Stanley, have collaborated to create HomeMint, a luxury home decor website.
Is HomeMint unique? Well, let's see… You've got to register to browse the wares, which involves answering a handful of questions intended to reveal your decor taste, such as: Do you shop at IKEA, Target, Crate & Barrel, or Design Within Reach? Personally, I think the answer tells more about your bank account than your personal style. Once registered, you can shop everything from wall art to bath towels and uncover the generally inflated prices. Unless you think a print of the Manhattan skyline shot by Timberlake is worth $599.99 ($499.99 if you pay the $10/month membership fee).
So we asked an expert what he thought about the site.
Celebrities hocking stuff works, like Nicki Minaj and MAC, the Kardashians and the junior's section at Sears, and Queen Latifah and Jenny Craig. Quite simply, that's the winning formula behind HomeMint's parent company, BeachMint, a Los Angeles-based startup that runs social commerce websites. Add JT and watch the dollars fly, baby.

2002 World Series of Poker Champion Suing New York Hedge Fund for Fraud
According to Forbes.com, 2002 World Series of Poker champion Robert Varkonyi and his wife are suing a New York hedge fund for fraud.
According to the Forbes.com article, Varkonyi and his wife reportedly made a $1.4 million investment in Chetan Kapur's ThinkStrategy Capital Management TS Multi-Strategy Fund back in early 2008.
The article claims that "Kapur's hedge funds had been invested in the Sarasota, Fla., hedge fund managed by Arthur Nadel, which turned out to be a $168 million Ponzi scheme". Varkonyi "alleges his investment in Kapur's TS Multi-Strategy Fund may be decimated by the improper liquidation of the hedge fund that began in November".
Arthur Nadel, who has been dubbed as the "Mini-Madoff", was sentenced to 14 years in prison back in October of 2010.
Varkonyi and his wife, Olga, are seeking the return of their $1.4 million investment.
Robert Varkonyi currently has over $2.25 million in total lifetime tournament cashes, with the bulk of this money ($2 million) coming as a result of his win in the 2002 World Series of Poker main event.

Concise Summary of Moratorium to NBFCs provided by the RBI
Applicability of Moratorium to Non-Banking Financial Companies
By - Latha Shanmugam on April 28, 2020
Amidst COVID-19 pandemic, Reserve bank of India has issued a circular1 with an intention to mitigate the burden of debt servicing and to ensure the continuity of viable businesses. Further, to ease the financial stress caused by COVID-19 disruptions, RBI has set out various developmental and regulatory policies that directly address the stress in financial conditions, by relaxing repayment pressures and improving access to working capital.
MORATORIUM FOR 3 MONTHS
RBI vide circular dated March 27, 20202 ("Circular") announced moratorium on term loans to all the commercial banks including regional rural banks, small finance banks and local area banks, cooperative banks, all India financial institution and non-banking financial companies (NBFCs) for the period of three months for payment of all instalments due between March 01, 2020, to May 31, 2020. Further, the interest accrued from working capital facilities sanctioned in the form of cash credit/overdraft during this period shall also be deferred until May 31, 2020.
Further, to ease the working capital financing during the economic fallout, it was advised by the RBI to the lending institutions to recalculate the 'drawing power' by reducing the margins or reassessing the working capital cycle and the same is contingent on the lending institutions as the same is necessitated on account of the economic fallout due to COVID-19. The accounts that are provided the relief under these instructions shall be subject to subsequent supervisory review.
It shall be specifically noted that the moratorium of three months' is provided to overcome the economic crises created by the COVID-19 and the same shall not be considered as concession or change in terms and conditions of loan agreements due to financial difficulty of the borrower and will not result in asset classification. The accumulated interest for the period will be paid after the expiry of the deferment period.
The intention of the RBI while issuing this regulatory package was to maintain the status quo regarding the classification of accounts of the borrowers as existed on March 1, 2020.
PERIOD OF MORATORIUM IS EXCLUDED IN THE COUNT OF 90 DAYS' NPA
Stepping ahead, RBI vide notification3 has relaxed the norms of 90 days NPA (Non-performing assets) and the period of the moratorium will be excluded in the time for classifying the accounts as NPAs for accounts which were standard as on March 01, 2020. The NBFCs have been given the flexibility to give such relief to their borrowers, which could boost the confidence of banks to start lending.
ICCL Vs SIDBI
Meanwhile, on April 10, 2020, Justice Rekha Palli passed an order in W.P. (C) 2955/2020 Indiabulls Commercial Credit Limited v/s Small Industries Development Bank of India and another.,4 directing the Small Industries Development Bank of India (SIDBI) to not raise any further demand on Indiabulls Commercial Credit Limited (ICCL) for the instalments due for the allowed moratorium period until ICCL obtains clarification from the RBI.
In the petition filed by the ICCL, a non-banking financial company, against SIDBI in the Delhi High Court seeking directions to Small Industries Development Bank of India (Respondent No. 1) to comply with the Circular issued by the RBI (Respondent No. 2) and consequently to restrain the Respondent No. 1 from recovering any amounts during the moratorium imposed by RBI.
FACTS OF THE CASE
The ICCL ("petitioner") had entered into a loan agreement with the Respondent No.1 who agreed to disburse the loan amount not exceeding Rs 750 crore to the petitioner. Pursuant to this arrangement, a sum of Rs 575 crore was disbursed. ICCL, being the borrower, had never defaulted the loan and had been repaying the loan amount in instalments as agreed between the parties. On March 09, 2020, ICCL had paid the instalment of Rs. 31,94,79,453/-, but on April 03, 2020, SIDBI raised the demand for the payment of instalment superseding the Circular issued by the RBI.
The petitioner submitted to the court that they made a request with the Respondent No.1 for granting a moratorium period of three months in response to which the Respondent no. 1 stated that they were awaiting the clarifications from RBI whether the Circular dated March 27, 2020, will be applicable to NBFCs like the petitioner and demanded to make the payments until they get the clarification. Hence the petitioner prayed to the court to restrain Respondent No.1 from making any demand until they obtain the clarification from RBI.
Respondent No. 1 submitted that they have already received the instalment which was due for April 2020 and they have taken the expeditious steps to get the necessary clarification from RBI, and therefore prayed for the disposal of the present petition as infructuous. Further, Respondent no.1 assured that in any event even if demand for the payment is raised for the following month, the petitioner would not be treated as defaulter till the clarification is obtained from the RBI and no such information regarding the defaults shall be given to any credit rating agency.
Based on the submissions made by both the parties and the Respondent no.2 not being represented, the Hon'ble court observed on the stand taken by the Respondent No.1 waiting for clarification from RBI and noticing that the due payment is already made, disposed of the matter as infructuous.
The court directed that no further demand should be made for the payment until the clarification is obtained from the RBI. Further, the Hon'ble High court of Delhi also instructed the Respondent No. 1 that if the RBI confirms that Circular dated March 27, 2020, is not applicable to the petitioner then the Respondent No.1 shall make the demand for further instalments in accordance with the law.
The impact of COVID-19 has not left the NBFCs out from its embrace, hence, all the circulars issued by the Reserve bank of India are considered to be issued directing all the commercial banks including regional rural banks, small finance banks and local area banks, cooperative banks, all India financial institution and NBFCs which is evident from the Circular itself.
Moreover, the benefit of the moratorium for three months is directed to every financial institution, be it commercial banks, small finance banks or NBFCs and is allowed to every customer being a company registered under the Companies Act, 2013. As notified in the circular the relief is given to all eligible borrowers. Hence, NBFC being registered under the Companies act 2013, engaged in the business of loans and advances, acquisition of shares/stocks/bonds/debentures/securities issued by Government or local authority or other marketable securities is a company and an eligible borrower.
In my opinion, the main intention of the RBI to issue the moratorium period is to ease the financial stress caused by COVID-19 disruptions by relaxing repayment pressures and improving access to working capital., the ICCL, being the customer of SIDBI, availed the loan facility stepping into the shoes of the borrower and the benefit of moratorium shall be equally applicable to ICCL as it is to any other borrower.

Maybe Illinois State coach Dan Muller should have resorted to Twitter long ago for help scheduling.
The tweet came after the Redbirds, who went 27-6 and tied Wichita State for the Missouri Valley regular-season title, were one of the top teams left out of the NCAA Tournament on Sunday.
The biggest reason for the snub was a weak nonconference schedule. Muller said it wasn't entirely their fault because power-five schools have been unwilling to play them.
Muller said he offered home-and-home deals to some schools, including Dayton and VCU, both of which landed at-large bids to the NCAA Tournament. He even offered 2-for-1 deals with some schools, but none of them was willing to risk what might be considered a ''bad loss'' by the selection committee.
Bad luck also cost the Redbirds the chance for quality wins this season.
Their annual in-season tournament was the Diamond Head Classic in Hawaii, which had a relatively weak field. Their game in the Missouri Valley-Mountain West Challenge was against New Mexico, which had a surprisingly down year. And the Valley itself was down.
The Shockers lost to the Redbirds in January before beating them twice, once at home later in the regular season and again in the finals of the Missouri Valley Tournament.
Even after that loss, the Redbirds thought they had done enough to make the NCAA field. But when their name wasn't called on Sunday, they wound up with a No. 1 seed in the NIT, where they will play UC Irvine in the first round on Wednesday night.
As for his tweet on Monday, it only took a few hours for him to get a response.
Ole Miss athletic director Ross Bjork tweeted back at Muller that he was sitting next to Rebels coach Andy Kennedy, whose team is also in the NIT. And while Kennedy doesn't use Twitter, he had told Bjork to let Muller know to give him a call.
''We'd love to match up,'' Bjork said.

Spotlight on David Coffee: NSMT's Ebenezer Scrooge
Actor David Coffee has played Christmas's most beloved curmudgeonly character for more than 25 years on North Shore Music Theatre's stage.
Karen Nascembeni December 17, 2020
If ever there was a year when the words "Bah Humbug" were befitting to describe our state of mind, it is 2020. Here on the North Shore, however, those two words are surprisingly endearing. We have all grown to love hearing them spoken by our favorite character actor, David Coffee, who brilliantly embodies Ebenezer Scrooge in North Shore Music Theatre's (NSMT) annual production of A Christmas Carol.
Last December marked Coffee's 26th year bringing life to Dickens's iconic cold-hearted miser. He first appeared in the NSMT production in 1992 at the age of 35. For almost three decades, he has performed the role of Scrooge to well over one million theatergoers.
Throughout all those productions, his understudy has never gone on, including during a run of the show where he tore his meniscus rolling over in Scrooge's bed during the first act. He has performed in 60 different musical productions at NSMT. So many, in fact, that most patrons assume he lives here on the North Shore.
It might surprise you to know that Coffee hails from Arlington, Texas, a suburb of Fort Worth where he was born 63 years ago this past September. A kindhearted, jovial man with a heavy southern accent, his off-stage personality is much more akin to the happy Scrooge you meet at the conclusion of A Christmas Carol.
From the moment he arrives on campus, Coffee bedazzles every inch of NSMT's star dressing room with Christmas lights, garland, tinsel, and holly. NSMT's wardrobe supervisor, Kat Shanahan, describes him as a "real-life Santa Claus known for giving gifts to every single cast and crew member working on the show."
NSMT's costume manager, Kelly Baker, says of Coffee, "When he comes down for fittings, he always stops and says hello to everyone working in the costume shop and introduces himself to any newcomers. We lovingly refer to it as 'David Coffee Day.' It marks the beginning of Christmas for me."
Prior to each performance, it takes Coffee 45 minutes to transform his youthful, shiny, baby face to that of the scowling Ebenezer Scrooge. Patrons always assume he is much older than he is. "Having done the show all these years, they certainly assume that I have to be ancient. Occasionally, like when we have a 10-show week, I will have to conserve a little bit for myself and the audience takes it as 'Isn't it wonderful that that old man still gets up there? I cannot believe he has as much energy as he still does at his age.' They are pulling for you."
A favorite on-stage tradition for Coffee is the coin toss scene complete with a bet that has been ongoing since 2006. NSMT's music contractor and lead trumpet, Jay Daly, and a few other musicians started taking bets among the cast and crew as to how many times a week the two Turkey Boys would drop the coins tossed to them through the air by Scrooge.
"You have to be prepared for anything on stage. From dropped coins, to technical issues with scenery flying in at unexpected times, too much atmospheric fog rolling in, to absent props, or actors and musicians missing their cues—in 26 years, I've seen it all. You just have to roll with it, so the audience doesn't know something went wrong."
Coffee enjoys playing to both student and public audiences alike. "The adults laugh more. They pick up on a lot of subtle things that go over the kids' heads. What I have always loved about student audiences is that they are straightforward. With the children, when I break down and say Merry Christmas to Mrs. Dilber, you hear this 'awwwhhhh' and they start applauding. It's like, how wonderful. He is finally gone. They are with me the whole way there."
Cheryl McMahon, who has played Mrs. Dilber impeccably opposite Coffee for 26 years, says of her scene partner, "David's portrayal of Ebenezer Scrooge comes straight from his heart. He cloaks himself in the persona created by Charles Dickens with a fresh start every performance. David captures every nuance, every tick and detail that make his portrayal of Scrooge so riveting and joyful to watch."
Coffee's "victory lap" around the stage at the end of each show is almost as entertaining as the show itself. To see the reaction of the audience, how much they are in tune with him and care for him, everyone with something to say, wanting to touch him and visit with him is one of the most heartwarming parts of the whole experience.
"The thing that I love about the show is knowing how much it means to other people. The letters and the messages I get…and when I'm visiting around town…I swear, if you had a GoPro attached to me going around after the show, it would look like the longest scene from It's A Wonderful Life. Audience members yell out, '15 years we've been coming! This little one here…it's his third year!' They should get year pins, or something because they all want to be sure that you know how long they have been coming to the show.
"On the morning of the school group performances, I yell 'Merry Christmas' at them and try to get them to yell back. Each section tries to top the one before and they always do. The sound from that last group almost knocks me over. It's nice to finish up the show and really feel great at the end. I have a reclamation eight times a week—an epiphany. It's very good for the soul to do that. It means a lot to me because you start the show as curmudgeonly Scrooge and at the end of it you feel fantastic. So many shows you do, the art goes the other way in what's happening to you."
NSMT's producing artistic director, Kevin P. Hill, says, "The thing I'm going to miss the most this holiday season is not being able to work with my dear friend David on this show. I'm so looking forward to working with him again next year when we celebrate our 30th A Christmas Carol anniversary."
Bill Hanney, NSMT's owner/producer, is often heard passionately saying from the stage, "I can't imagine ever doing this production without David. As long as he is able to do this role, it is his."
When asked if he had any concerns about aging out of the role, Coffee says, "I don't worry about it too much. I have a friend who finally quit doing the role at 82. If I can stay healthy enough to get around…that's the main thing…and remember my lines…I can do it for a long time."
In a year when our beloved Ebenezer Scrooge will not be shouting "Bah Humbug" at us from the stage, let us take a lesson from Dickens's playbook on remembering A Christmas Carol's timely message of rebirth and hope. "I will honour Christmas in my heart and try to keep it all the year. I will live in the Past, the Present, and the Future. The Spirits of all Three shall strive within me. I will not shut out the lessons that they teach."

Recently I've found myself reading the Hebrew book of Job. It's a very powerful work of literature and I think everyone should read it at some point in their lives. In the work, there is a righteous man named Job who is very prosperous. He's married to a beautiful woman who loves him, his children adore him, they're all doing well, and he is very wealthy. He respects those around him and is a man of integrity. Then out of nowhere, all of that changes very quickly.
It's said that Satan and his fallen angels visit heaven and speak with God. They tell Him that the only reason Job is such an upright man is because he's been given such a wonderful life. They challenge God and tell Him that if He removes his wall of protection from Job, the man will soon be cursing God and everyone around him. And so, God allows Satan to take anything he desires from Job, except his life.
Before long, Job's friends visit him and accuse him of some secret sin. They assure him that he's obviously done something to deserve all of this, but he's just not admitting it. So, even his friends lose faith in him and he loses his good reputation. After a while, even Job's loving wife loses it, becomes a nagging nuisance, and tells him to curse God and curse this life. She exclaims that there is no justice in this life and that God doesn't care about either of them. They're on their own. Job ends up out in the middle of a field, covered in dirt, suffering and in agony, sprawled out on the ground, cursing the day he was born.
He lays out in the field and curses this life. Why do the powerful oppress the weak, and why does God allow it? Why do good people get sick and die? Why is there war? Famine? Pestilence? Natural disasters? Why do evil people prosper? Why must people die? Why did God give man a nature which is so covetous and evil? What is the meaning of it all? Job lays out in the field and demands an answer, screaming at the sky.
God comes down from heaven in a whirlwind and mocks Job. What do you understand, human? Do you know the end from the beginning? Where were you when I created the laws of physics and set the stars in place? Or were you there and I didn't notice? Do you know my grand plan for it all? Do you? The angels rejoiced when I set this all in motion. Tell me why that is? Tell me what happens when a person dies? Tell me about the nature of light and matter? Tell me about space and time? What is life? Do you know? Tell me!
Job lays there in the dirt, thinks for a moment, and then replies, "Lord, I don't know the answers to your questions. I'm just a human, and I'm not worthy to ask these things. Forgive me." God then leaves Job and tells Satan to leave him alone. Shortly after this, Job's wealth and integrity are restored, his health returns, and he is blessed with ten times the wealth he had before. He has new children with his wife, and his daughters were the most beautiful in all the land.
I can just picture atheists reading this and thinking, "Jason, are you becoming religious?" Then I hear them arguing, "If the laws of the universe weren't what they are, we wouldn't be here to even think about them because we never would have evolved a brain capable of such high level thought. So what's the problem?" I don't find that answer satisfactory or conclusive, but there is logic to it. All that is saying is that if we weren't here, we wouldn't be able to think about the question. I certainly think about the question, and I don't feel it's answered. I don't like philosophical answers, acting as if you can just sit in your armchair and answer a question like that. I want something more substantial. I want evidence. I want something conclusive.
I've been on the fence on this issue for a long time. On the one hand, I agree with physicists like Steven Weinberg, who in his book The First Three Minutes, chronicles the events of the Big Bang and points out that eventually our universe will continue to expand and expand until we're left with the heat death. Information processing becomes impossible, so all thought and consciousness are extinguished, and all forms of life are obliterated, no matter how hard they struggled, or how much they evolved to get where they were. Weinberg's book ends on a rather dismal note, stating, "The more the universe seems comprehensible, the more it also seems pointless." On the other hand, I wonder how far evolution may go, and I also consider that there could well be aspects to the laws of nature which are yet to be discovered which would change my mind on things.
The other night I had a conversation with an old friend and we had a conversation similar to the ones Job was having with his three friends. Where is the justice? What is the point of toiling away in jobs we hate? We spend the majority of our lives working, most of us hating what we do. Then we get old, feeble, and the best we can hope for is to have a comfortable retirement, and that's not even guaranteed. Love so often fades away and many of us are left with desertion. And what do we accomplish moving dirt around here on the surface of the Earth? Struggling to exist? Sickness, disease, bombings, wars, violence. What's the point of it all, especially when it's all just going to eventually expand away into nothing once we're all dead and gone? The question is worth asking.
I've watched this world destroy that wonderful inner joy from within so many people I've known over the years. People once full of life as children, now they're just dead inside. I remember going to the park and playing basketball with them, playing hockey, and enjoying video games. We'd sneak off to the park and hit baseballs in the batting cages. We'd ride our bicycles around the neighborhoods without a care in the world. We'd go swimming and look at the girls in their swimsuits. I remember shyly approaching them, and at other times flirting with the lifeguards. We'd get bored from time to time, but life was good. We talked about girls we liked, we goofed off, and we tried to convince the older folks to take us to the paintball range or to Blockbuster to rent movies. But that was then. Now what is everyone like? They're stuck in jobs they hate, most of them are in unfulfilling relationships, and some of them live in poverty. They're bitter and many of them have given into cynicism. Others have became deeply religious, think Jesus is coming back any day to save this dying world, and have put all their hopes in the next life. People I grew up with, friends and family members, I've watched this world tear them to shreds and spit them out to die. I've also had to watch many of my own loved ones die and felt totally powerless and helpless against it. Just the other night I looked at my grandfather, who I love deeply, lying in the emergency room, weak and frail, on the verge of death, about to have open-heart surgery.
I can't bear to think about it. It sends me into a spiral of depression so deep, I can become suicidal. I made up my mind many years ago to find answers to why all of this is happening. I've found out how many things got the way they are, but the solutions, if there are any, are beyond what any person could ever fix on their own. Many things are beyond our control, such as the ways our minds evolved and what makes us feel good inside. One of the scariest thoughts to think about is that society is evolving on its own, and nobody really knows where it's going or how things will turn out. And looking at all the other species before us that have went extinct, we live in a dangerous world where the rains fall on the just and the unjust.
I also learned and later came to appreciate all that my parents did to make me happy. How both of my parents tried to shield all of us from the pains and suffering of this world. I remember all my mother did, taking us places, running us to different sporting events, or buying us things we wanted, even when they were difficult to afford. I recall the spiritual lessons Dad shared, and as I grow older, I find out the truth to most all of them. Most all of them were true, as far as life lessons go. I see people who never learned them, or failed to believe them, and I see them destroyed. That's to be expected. He shared with me spiritual lessons that have been taught for thousands of years, time-tested generation after generation. They're the greatest things Dad ever gave me. Love and compassion are the most important things in this world.
I've learned many things, but the deepest lessons I've learned point to the fact that I'm a very frail and weak creature who is very dumb, unaware of most things going on around me. People of my species live for an insignificant amount of time, struggle to exist, mainly due to how stupid we all are, and then we die. We hope to find some degree of happiness in our careers, love lives, and children, but I don't think many people find deep fulfillment. The more I learn, I mostly learn all that I don't know, so I don't feel qualified to even give advice or talk about things. It's like there's an invisible whirlwind flying above me, "What do you know?" I always reply, "I know next to nothing." "What is matter?" "Protons, neutons, electrons? Quarks? I don't know." "What is light? What is it that you see?" "Vibrating electric and magnetic fields? I don't know." "What keeps the stars in place?" "Gravity? I don't know. I see things happen and in simple situations, I can predict what may happen with some success. That's all I'm capable of." Then the whirlwind leaves and I hope He tells Satan to leave me alone.
I find myself wondering if our species (and others in the universe) will continue to evolve and eventually will become something glorious beyond anything I'm able to think or imagine. Their technology may be so advanced, I couldn't distinguish them from God. They may live in unbounded joy and happiness, capable of living any experience they desire. And they may well reprogram the universe, stop the expansion, and live indefinitely for all eternity. And who knows, when I die, maybe I'll reincarnate into that civilization and that's my reward for helping contribute to it. I have no idea what happens at death, or what the relationship is between brain activity and consciousness. What do I know?

Look no further! Our mission statement is reflected in our motto above and it is what we always strive for whenever you come into our one-of-kind and relaxing IV Hydration Therapy and Wellness Clinic in certain cases when you may be sniffling and whimpering through a mild cold and flu with or without nausea and vomiting, the "runs" from a bug that you unfortunately caught after consumption of contaminated food, had a bit of a hangover from the once-in-a-lifetime party or special occasion you gladly experienced the night before, a competitive athlete who needs to boost their performance and recovery with IV hydration post-intense workout, or just worn out because of a red-eye jet lag and you have not had the chance to drink enough water and nutrients throughout your busy schedule and the days work.

Everyone is so kind and welcoming! I love IV therapy and so glad I can get this service outside of my natural doctors office anytime I feel I need it!! I am a very happy and feel great!
This place is amazing. My brother in law was badly dehydrated and wanted to call an ambulance. We found this place and tried it first. We saved $500 on a hospital trip. I tried it also because I was curious and had a hangover. I tried the saline with vitamins (I think Myers blend) and left feeling great. I'll be back during festival season and will def do it again. I'd like to try it when not hungover to see if there is still a boost because the difference was huge.
Replenish 360 was my first IV experience apart from the hospital. Besides a good cheeseburger and hair on the dog, I heard that IV therapy was a great, clean way to cure yourself of a hangover. I was in town for a wedding, had a little too much and desperately needed relief, having a lot to do the next day. I found Replenish 360 through a simple Google search. I gave them a call, came into their facility on a weekend, and they treated me with a so called "banana bag" and was given some headache medicine. An hour or two later, it was like the wedding and all the drinking never happened. If you are in the area and in need of this relief, I highly recommend giving them a call and paying a visit.
I'm convinced hiring Replenish 360 is amongst the best decisions I've ever made.
I called the morning of my wedding to mitigate a moderate to advanced hangover. Deep head and neck aches, dehydration, body aches.
We were on a sustained good mezcal / mediocre beer program the night prior.
Two wonderful nurses came to me poolside whilst enjoying huevos rancheros and having our friends trespass to the private pool of our adorable little hotel.
They told me the scoop, plugged me in, and we began the 45min road to recovery.
There was no pain. You start feeling better about 20 mins in. The full flight takes about 4 hours to get to cruising altitude where you will find yourself 100% replenished. The vitamin, pain reliever, and saline cocktail is delicious.
This is a steep ticket show, no doubt. But look, if you've got the big day / meeting / event etc… this is an investment in yourself. Very big returns.
I'm just thrilled that the nurses and service we received was all so easy, helpful, and fun.
This place is awesome! The staff is great and super communicative. I recommend the Meyers cocktail after a night of drinking. I came with my brother in law who wanted to call an ambulance because he was dehydrated. We found this place and saved $500. I'll be back.
A GREAT EXPERIENCE!! Let me just say that I hate being poked. I've always been pretty squeamish when it came to needles. I was a little hesitant but have been wanting to get IV Hydration for a while to see what the hype was about.
I called them up and let them know I was in town with my husband and a few friends who wanted to get IV therapy. They said they were able to come to us and have it done in our hotel room! So awesome. We scheduled for the next morning. The staff was so friendly and very professional. They are all certified/licensed nurses and medical professionals so they know what they're doing. My husband and I both went with Tier 3.
We were able to get hydrated while we relaxed! It was an overall positive experience and I would definitely do it again!
